Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration


     The aggregate purchase price for the 16,129,032 shares of Common Stock acquired by WP X on January 30, 2008 was $500,000,000. WP X obtained the funds from working capital.

Item 4. Purpose of the Transaction

     The purchase by WP X of the Common Stock was effected because of the belief that the Common Stock represented, and continues to represent, an attractive investment. The Warburg Pincus Reporting Persons beneficially own the Common Stock as an investment. Subject to the limitations described below in this Item 4, the Warburg Pincus Reporting Persons from time to time may decide to increase or decrease their investment in MBIA through shares of Common Stock or other capital stock of MBIA in open market or private transactions or otherwise. The timing and amount of any such increase or decrease may depend upon the price and availability of shares of MBIA’s capital stock, subsequent developments affecting MBIA, MBIA’s business and prospects, other investment and business opportunities available to the Warburg Pincus Reporting Persons, general stock market and economic conditions, tax considerations and other factors considered relevant.

     On December 10, 2007, WP X entered into an Investment Agreement with MBIA. Pursuant to the terms of such Investment Agreement, on January 30, 2008, the date of the closing, (i) WP X purchased a total of 16,129,032 shares of Common Stock for an aggregate purchase price of $500,000,000 and (ii) WP X received warrants exercisable for a total of 16,129,032 shares of Common Stock. On February 6, 2008, WP X entered into an Amended and Restated Investment Agreement (as amended and restated, the “Investment Agreement”) with MBIA, which is described below, and MBIA announced a $750,000,000 public offering of Common Stock (the “Offering”).

The Investment Agreement

     Pursuant to the terms of the Investment Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, on January 30, 2008, WP X made an investment of $500,000,000 in MBIA through the acquisition of 16,129,032 shares of Common Stock. WP X also received warrants currently exercisable to purchase 8,698,920 shares of Common Stock at a price of $40.00 per share (“warrants”), and B-warrants which, upon obtaining certain shareholder approvals, will become exercisable to purchase 7,430,112 shares of Common Stock at a price of $40.00 per share (“B-warrants”). The term of each of the warrants and the B-warrants is seven years. The Common Stock, the warrants and the B-warrants purchased by WP X are subject to transfer restrictions for a minimum of one year and up to three years.

     Pursuant to the terms of the Investment Agreement, the Board of Directors of MBIA (the “Board”) appointed David A. Coulter and Kewsong Lee as directors, effective January 30, 2008, each to serve until his successor shall have been appointed and qualified or until he shall have resigned or been removed. Mr. Coulter will serve as a member of the Compensation & Organization Committee, the Credit Risk Committee and the Executive Committee until the next annual meeting of shareholders. Mr. Lee will serve as a member of the Finance Committee and the Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee until the next annual meeting of shareholders. Subject to certain share ownership requirements described in the Investment Agreement, MBIA will be required to recommend to its shareholders the election of up to two directors nominated by WP X at MBIA’s annual meeting, and WP X’s nominees will be required to be MBIA’s and MBIA’s Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee’s nominees to serve on the Board. In connection with the Investment Agreement, on January 25, 2008, the Board amended MBIA’s bylaws to increase the maximum Board size from twelve to thirteen members, effective January 30, 2008.

     Pursuant to the terms of the Investment Agreement, WP X committed to backstop a possible future shareholder rights offering, prior to March 31, 2008, of up to $500,000,000; WP X’s obligation to backstop a possible future shareholder rights offering will be reduced by the sum of (i) the aggregate offer price of the shares of Common Stock sold in the Offering and (ii) the aggregate purchase price of any preferred stock that MBIA sells to WP X in connection with the Offering. As described below, the rights offering obligation is no longer in effect.

     Under the backstop commitment for the Offering, MBIA may elect to sell to WP X (the “Backstop Commitment”) a number of shares of preferred stock for an aggregate purchase price equal to the difference, if any, between (i) $750,000,000 and (ii) the product of (A) the per share closing offering price of the Common Stock in the Offering and (B) the number of shares of Common Stock sold in the Offering (such difference, the “Backstop


Shortfall Amount”). WP X has the option, exercisable at any time prior to the later of the closing of the Offering or February 15, 2008, to purchase up to $300,000,000 of preferred stock (the “Backstop Option”) that is described below. The Backstop Shortfall Amount will be decreased on a dollar-for-dollar basis to the extent of WP X’s exercise of the Backstop Option.

     Pursuant to the terms of the Investment Agreement, on February 6, 2008, WP X received B2-warrants which, upon obtaining certain shareholder approvals, will become exercisable to purchase a total of 4,000,000 shares of Common Stock at a price of $16.20 per share (“B2-warrants”). The term of the B2-warrants is seven years, and the B2-warrants are subject to the same transfer restrictions as the B-warrants. If WP X purchases any preferred stock pursuant to the Backstop Commitment, MBIA will also deliver to WP X additional B2-warrants exercisable to purchase the number of shares of Common Stock equal to the product of (i) 4,000,000 and (ii) the quotient resulting from dividing (A) the Backstop Shortfall Amount by (B) $450,000,000, but in no event more than 4,000,000. For the reasons described in the paragraph below, WP X does not expect to receive additional B2-warrants.

     On February 7, 2008, MBIA announced that the Offering was increased to $1,000,000,000 and priced at $12.15 per share. In connection therewith, WP X advised MBIA that it intends to purchase $300,000,000 of Common Stock (or 24,691,358 shares of Common Stock) in the Offering and that, if the closing of that purchase occurs, it does not intend to exercise the Backstop Option. The closing of the Offering is expected to occur on February 13, 2008. In addition, MBIA issued a press release on February 7, 2008 stating that it does not intend to use the Backstop Commitment. As a result and subject to the foregoing, WP X does not expect to acquire any preferred stock, and its obligation to backstop the rights offering described above will no longer be in effect.

     The foregoing summary of the Investment Agreement is not intended to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Amended and Restated Investment Agreement, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 2 to this Schedule 13D, and which is incorporated herein by reference.

The Warrants

     The warrants and the B-warrants are exercisable in whole or in part any time beginning on January 30, 2008 until January 30, 2015, and the B2-warrants received by WP X on February 6, 2008 are exercisable in whole or in part any time beginning on February 6, 2008 until February 6, 2015. The exercise price and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants, the B-warrants and the B2-warrants (collectively, the “Warrants”) are subject to certain anti-dilution adjustments. Prior to the obtaining of certain shareholder approvals as may be necessary under any applicable law or regulation or requirement of any applicable securities exchange, any exercise of the B-warrants or of the B2-warrants must occur on a net exercise basis and the warrantholder can only receive cash upon exercise. The required shareholder approvals that must be obtained prior to any exercise of the B-warrants or of the B2-warrants for sha res of Common Stock are not expected to occur within sixty days of the date of this Statement.

     The foregoing summary of the Warrants is not intended to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Warrants, copies of which are being filed as Exhibit 3 (warrant), Exhibit 4 (B-warrant) and Exhibits 6 and 7 (B2-warrants) to this Schedule 13D, and which are incorporated herein by reference.

The Voting Trust Agreement

     Of the 16,129,032 shares of Common Stock acquired by WP X on January 30, 2008, 9,951,760 of such shares (the “Voting Trust Shares”) were immediately deposited by WP X into a voting trust pursuant to a Voting Trust Agreement (the “Voting Trust Agreement”), dated as of January 30, 2008, by and among MBIA, WP X and U.S. Bank National Association, as voting trustee (the “Voting Trustee”) , and WP X received a voting trust certificate in exchange for its deposit of the Voting Trust Shares. Pursuant to the terms of the Voting Trust Agreement, the Voting Trustee has voting power over the Voting Trust Shares and WP X has investment power over the Voting Trust Shares. The Voting Trustee has the right and power to vote and exercise all other rights with respect to the Voting Trust Shares, either in person or by proxy, on every matter for which the Voting Trust Shares may be voted, or to give written consent in lieu of vot ing thereon. The Voting Trustee must vote the Voting Trust Shares solely in proportion with the votes cast by all holders of voting securities of MBIA on any matter put before them. WP X will receive any dividends or distributions paid in shares of Common Stock or other voting securities


of MBIA having voting powers. The voting trust may be terminated by, among other things, notice given to the Voting Trustee by holders of the outstanding voting trust certificates at any time following the receipt of all required insurance regulatory approvals.

     WP X may enter into an additional voting trust agreement with respect to some or all of the shares of Common Stock to be purchased in the Offering.

     The foregoing summary of the Voting Trust Agreement is not intended to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Voting Trust Agreement, a copy of which is being filed as Exhibit 5 to this Schedule 13D, and which is incorporated herein by reference.

Preferred Stock

     As a result of the intention of WP X not to exercise the Backstop Option assuming the closing of WP X’s purchase in the Offering, and MBIA’s intention not to call upon the Backstop Commitment, WP X does not currently expect any of the preferred stock to be issued.

     The terms of the non-voting participating convertible preferred stock (“preferred stock”) would have provided that the preferred stock is non-voting and is mandatorily convertible into Common Stock once all shareholder approvals necessary for such conversion are received by MBIA. The preferred stock would generally be entitled to the same dividends as Common Stock. In the event that the preferred stock has not converted to common stock prior to the six month anniversary of its issuance, the holders of the majority of the preferred stock would have a consent right over the payment of dividends on Common Stock. For periods starting on or after July 1, 2008, the preferred stock would accrue an additional dividend, payable in kind, at an annual rate of 10%.

     Upon receipt of any required shareholder approval, each share of preferred stock would automatically convert into Common Stock. The number of shares of Common Stock into which a share of preferred stock would convert will be determined by dividing $1,000 (plus any accrued an unpaid dividends) by $12.15, subject to certain anti-dilution adjustments. Beginning one year following the date that the preferred stock is issued, the holder may require MBIA to redeem the preferred stock, subject to certain limitations, at a redemption price equal to 1.2 times the greater of (i) $1,000 per share (plus any accrued and unpaid dividends) or (ii) the market price of the Common Stock that would have been received for one share of preferred stock had such preferred stock been converted one business day prior to the date of the notice related to such redemption. WP X generally is entitled to redeem only up to one-third of the aggregate remaining preferred stock during any one year. However, WP X may redeem an amount greater than this cap under certain circumstances and, in particular, may do so unless (i) MBIA reasonably believes that after giving effect to the incremental optional redemption, it will not have adequate capital and liquidity to conduct its business in a substantially identical manner or (ii) MBIA reasonably believes, after consultation with the rating agencies, that payment of the incremental optional redemption will result in adverse action by any rating agencies.

     In the event of a change of control of MBIA, the holders of preferred stock are entitled to receive significant payments. Holders of preferred stock are entitled to receive either (i) the consideration such holders would have received had the preferred stock been converted to Common Stock plus dividends that such holders would otherwise have received through the fifth anniversary of the change of control or (ii) by delivering a redemption request within sixty days after the change of control, the base liquidation value of the preferred stock plus dividends that such holders would otherwise have received through the fifth anniversary of such date.

     As described above, in connection with WP X’s intention to purchase $300,000,000 of Common Stock (or 24,691,358 shares of Common Stock) in the Offering, WP X does not expect to acquire any preferred stock.

     The foregoing summary of the preferred stock is not intended to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Form of Certificate of Amendment, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 8 to this Schedule 13D, and which is incorporated herein by reference.

     Except as set forth above, none of the Warburg Pincus Reporting Persons nor, to the best of their knowledge, any person listed in Schedule I, has any plans or proposals which relate to or would result in: (a) the acquisition by any person of additional securities of MBIA, or the disposition of securities of MBIA; (b) an extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger, reorganization or liquidation, involving MBIA or any of its subsidiaries; (c) a sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of MBIA or any of its subsidiaries; (d) any change in the present Board or management of MBIA, including any plans or proposals to change the number or term of directors or to fill any existing vacancies on the Board; (e) any material change in the present capitalization or dividend policy of MBIA; (f) any other material change in MBIA’s business or corporate structure; (g) any changes in MBIA’s charter, bylaws or instruments correspond ing thereto or other actions which may impede the acquisition of control of MBIA by any person; (h) causing a class of securities of MBIA to be delisted from a national securities exchange or to cease to be authorized to be quoted in an inter-dealer quotation system of a registered national securities association; (i) a class of equity securities of MBIA becoming eligible for termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Exchange Act; or (j) any action similar to any of those enumerated above.

    (A)   Common Stock Issued at Less than the Applicable Price. If the Company issues or sells
        any Common Stock other than Excluded Stock for consideration per share less than the
        Applicable Price, then the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to each such

- 8 -


determined by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such issuance
or sale by a fraction, (x) the numerator of which shall be (1) the number of shares of
Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issuance or sale plus (2) the
number of shares of Common Stock which the aggregate consideration received by the
Company for the total number of such additional shares of Common Stock so issued or
sold would purchase at the Applicable Price, and (y) the denominator of which shall be
the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such issuance or
sale. In such event, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of
this Warrant shall be increased to the number obtained by dividing (x) the product of (1)
the number of Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant before such adjustment
and (2) the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the issuance or sale giving rise to
this adjustment, by (y) the new Exercise Price determined in accordance with the
immediately preceding sentence. For the purposes of any adjustment of the Exercise
Price and the number of Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant pursuant to this
Section 13(A), the following provisions shall be applicable, provided, however, no
increase in the Exercise Price or reduction in the number of Shares issuable upon exercise
of this Warrant shall be made pursuant to subclauses (i) or (ii) of this Section 13(A):
 
(i)   In the case of the issuance or sale of Common Stock for cash, the amount of the
    consideration received by the Company shall be deemed to be the amount of the
    gross cash proceeds received by the Company for such Common Stock before
    deducting therefrom any discounts or commissions allowed, paid or incurred by
    the Company for any underwriting or otherwise in connection with the issuance
    and sale thereof.
 
(ii)   In the case of the issuance or sale of Common Stock (otherwise than upon the
    conversion of shares of Capital Stock or other securities of the Company) for a
    consideration in whole or in part other than cash, including securities acquired in
    exchange therefor (other than securities by their terms so exchangeable), the
    consideration other than cash shall be deemed to be the fair value thereof as
    determined by the Board, before deducting therefrom any discounts or
    commissions allowed, paid or incurred by the Company for any underwriting or
    otherwise in connection with the issuance and sale thereof, provided, however,
    that such per share fair value as determined by the Board shall not exceed the
    Applicable Price.
 
(iii)   In the case of the issuance of (1) options, warrants or other rights to purchase or
    acquire Common Stock (whether or not at the time exercisable) or (2) securities
    by their terms convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock (whether or
    not at the time so convertible or exchangeable) or options, warrants or rights to
    purchase such convertible or exchangeable securities (whether or not at the time
    exercisable):
 
    (1)   The aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable
        upon exercise of such options, warrants or other rights to purchase or
        acquire Common Stock shall be deemed to have been issued at the time
        such options, warrants or rights are issued and for a consideration equal
        to the consideration (determined in the manner provided in Section
        13(A)(i) and (ii)), if any, received by the Company upon the issuance or
        sale of such options, warrants or rights plus the minimum purchase price
 
- 9 -


provided in such options, warrants or rights for the Common Stock  
    covered thereby.
 
(2)   The aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable
    upon conversion of or in exchange for any such convertible or
    exchangeable securities, or upon the exercise of options, warrants or
    other rights to purchase or acquire such convertible or exchangeable
    securities and the subsequent conversion or exchange thereof, shall be
    deemed to have been issued at the time such securities were issued or
    such options, warrants or rights were issued and for a consideration equal
  to the consideration, if any, received by the Company for any such 
    securities and related options, warrants or rights (excluding any cash
    received on account of accrued interest or accrued dividends), plus the
additional consideration (in each case, determined in the manner
provided in Section 13(A)(i) and (ii)), if any, to be received by the  
    Company upon the conversion or exchange of such securities, or upon
    the exercise of any related options, warrants or rights to purchase or
    acquire such convertible or exchangeable securities and the subsequent
    conversion or exchange thereof.
 
(3)   On any change in the number of shares of Common Stock deliverable
    upon exercise of any such options, warrants or rights or conversion or
    exchange of such convertible or exchangeable securities or any change in
    the consideration to be received by the Company upon such exercise,
    conversion or exchange, but excluding changes resulting from the anti-
    dilution provisions thereof (to the extent comparable to the anti-dilution
provisions contained herein), the Exercise Price and the number of  
Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant as then in effect shall  
    forthwith be readjusted to such Exercise Price and number of Shares as
would have been obtained had an adjustment been made upon the  
    issuance or sale of such options, warrants or rights not exercised prior to
  such change, or of such convertible or exchangeable securities not 
    converted or exchanged prior to such change, upon the basis of such
    change.
 
(4)   On the expiration or cancellation of any such options, warrants or rights
    (without exercise), or the termination of the right to convert or exchange
    such convertible or exchangeable securities (without exercise), if the
    Exercise Price and the number of Shares issuable upon exercise of this
    Warrant shall have been adjusted upon the issuance or sale thereof, the
    Exercise Price and the number of Shares issuable upon exercise of this
    Warrant shall forthwith be readjusted to such Exercise Price and number
    of Shares as would have been obtained had an adjustment been made
  upon the issuance or sale of such options, warrants, rights or such 
    convertible or exchangeable securities on the basis of the issuance of
    only the number of shares of Common Stock actually issued upon the
    exercise of such options, warrants or rights, or upon the conversion or
    exchange of such convertible or exchangeable securities.
 
(5)   If the Exercise Price and the number of Shares issuable upon exercise of
    this warrant shall have been adjusted upon the issuance or sale of any
 
- 10 -


        such options, warrants, rights or convertible or exchangeable securities,
        no further adjustment of the Exercise Price and the number of Shares
        issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be made for the actual
        issuance of Common Stock upon the exercise, conversion or exchange
        thereof; provided, however, that no increase in the Exercise Price or
        reduction in the number of Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant
        shall be made pursuant to subclauses (1) or (2) of this Section 13(A)(iii).
 
    (iv)   For the avoidance of doubt, (i) the Company’s issuance or sale of shares of Com-
        mon Stock in the Rights Offering to the extent not purchased by the Investor pur-
        suant to Section 4.10 of the Investment Agreement shall be subject to the provi-
        sions of this Section 13(A) and (ii) the Company’s issuance or sale of shares of
        Common Stock in the Rights Offering to the extent purchased by the Investor
        pursuant to Section 4.10 of the Investment Agreement shall not be subject to the
        provisions of this Section 13(A).
 
(B)   Stock Splits, Subdivisions, Reclassifications or Combinations. If the Company shall (i)
    declare a dividend or make a distribution on its Common Stock in shares of Common
    Stock, (ii) subdivide or reclassify the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater
    number of shares, or (iii) combine or reclassify the outstanding Common Stock into a
    smaller number of shares, the number of Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant at
    the time of the record date for such dividend or distribution or the effective date of such
    subdivision, combination or reclassification shall be proportionately adjusted so that the
    Warrantholder after such date shall be entitled to purchase the number of shares of
    Common Stock which such holder would have owned or been entitled to receive after
    such date had this Warrant been exercised immediately prior to such date. In such event,
    the Exercise Price in effect at the time of the record date for such dividend or distribution
    or the effective date of such subdivision, combination or reclassification shall be adjusted
    to the number obtained by dividing (x) the product of (1) the number of Shares issuable
    upon the exercise of this Warrant before such adjustment and (2) the Exercise Price in
    effect immediately prior to the issuance giving rise to this adjustment by (y) the new
    number of shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrant determined pursuant to the
    immediately preceding sentence.
 
(C)   Other Distributions. In case the Company shall fix a record date for the making of a
    distribution to all holders of shares of its Common Stock (i) of shares of any class other
    than its Common Stock, (ii) of evidence of indebtedness of the Company or any
    Subsidiary, (iii) of assets (excluding Ordinary Cash Dividends, and dividends or
    distributions referred to in Section 13(B)), or (iv) of rights or warrants (excluding those
    referred to in Section 13(B)), in each such case, the Exercise Price in effect prior thereto
    shall be reduced immediately thereafter to the price determined by dividing (x) an
    amount equal to the difference resulting from (1) the number of shares of Common Stock
    outstanding on such record date multiplied by the Exercise Price per Share on such record
    date, less (2) the fair market value (as reasonably determined by the Board) of said shares
    or evidences of indebtedness or assets or rights or warrants to be so distributed, by (y) the
    number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such record date; such adjustment
    shall be made successively whenever such a record date is fixed. In such event, the
    number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be
    increased to the number obtained by dividing (x) the product of (1) the number of Shares
    issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant before such adjustment, and (2) the Exercise
    Price in effect immediately prior to the issuance giving rise to this adjustment by (y) the
 
 
- 11 -


    new Exercise Price determined in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence.
    In the event that such distribution is not so made, the Exercise Price and the number of
    Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant then in effect shall be readjusted, effective
    as of the date when the Board determines not to distribute such shares, evidences of
    indebtedness, assets, rights or warrants, as the case may be, to the Exercise Price that
    would then be in effect and the number of Shares that would then be issuable upon
    exercise of this Warrant if such record date had not been fixed.
 
(D)   Certain Repurchases of Common Stock. In case the Company effects a Pro Rata
    Repurchase of Common Stock, then the Exercise Price shall be reduced to the price
    determined by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the effective
    date of such Pro Rata Repurchase by a fraction of which the numerator shall be (i) the
    product of (x) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately before
    such Pro Rata Repurchase and (y) the Market Price of a share of Common Stock on the
    trading day immediately preceding the first public announcement by the Company or any
    of its Affiliates of the intent to effect such Pro Rata Repurchase, minus (ii) the aggregate
    purchase price of the Pro Rata Repurchase, and of which the denominator shall be the
    product of (i) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to
    such Pro Rata Repurchase minus the number of shares of Common Stock so repurchased
    and (ii) the Market Price per share of Common Stock on the trading day immediately
    preceding the first public announcement of such Pro Rata Repurchase. In such event, the
    number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be
    increased to the number obtained by dividing (x) the product of (1) the number of Shares
    issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant before such adjustment, and (2) the Exercise
    Price in effect immediately prior to the Pro Rata Repurchase giving rise to this
    adjustment by (y) the new Exercise Price determined in accordance with the immediately
    preceding sentence.
 
(E)   Business Combinations. Subject to Section 14 of this Warrant, in case of any Business
    Combination or reclassification of Common Stock (other than a reclassification of
    Common Stock referred to in Section 13(B)), any Shares issued or issuable upon exercise
    of this Warrant after the date of such Business Combination or reclassification, shall be
    exchangeable for the number of shares of stock or other securities or property (including
    cash) to which the Common Stock issuable (at the time of such Business Combination or
    reclassification) upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such Business
    Combination or reclassification would have been entitled upon such Business
    Combination or reclassification; and in any such case, if necessary, the provisions set
    forth herein with respect to the rights and interests thereafter of the Warrantholder shall
    be appropriately adjusted so as to be applicable, as nearly as may reasonably be, to any
    shares of stock or other securities or property thereafter deliverable on the exercise of this
    Warrant. In determining the kind and amount of stock, securities or the property
    receivable upon consummation of such Business Combination, if the holders of Common
    Stock have the right to elect the kind or amount of consideration receivable upon
    consummation of such Business Combination, then the Warrantholder shall have the right
    to make a similar election upon exercise of this Warrant with respect to the number of
    shares of stock or other securities or property which the Warrantholder will receive upon
    exercise of this Warrant.
 
(F)   Rounding of Calculations; Minimum Adjustments. All calculations under this Section 13
    shall be made to the nearest one-tenth (1/10th) of a cent or to the nearest one-hundredth
    (1/100th) of a share, as the case may be. Any provision of this Section 13 to the contrary
 
- 12 -


    notwithstanding, no adjustment in the Exercise Price or the number of Shares into which
    this Warrant is exercisable shall be made if the amount of such adjustment would be less
    than $0.01 or one-tenth (1/10th) of a share of Common Stock, respectively, but any such
    amount shall be carried forward and an adjustment with respect thereto shall be made at
    the time of and together with any subsequent adjustment which, together with such
    amount and any other amount or amounts so carried forward, shall aggregate $0.01 or
    1/10th of a share of Common Stock, respectively, or more.
 
(G)   Timing of Issuance of Additional Common Stock Upon Certain Adjustments. In any
    case in which the provisions of this Section 13 shall require that an adjustment shall
    become effective immediately after a record date for an event, the Company may defer
    until the occurrence of such event (i) issuing to the Warrantholder of this Warrant
    exercised after such record date and before the occurrence of such event the additional
    shares of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise by reason of the adjustment
    required by such event over and above the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such
    exercise before giving effect to such adjustment and (ii) paying to such Warrantholder
    any amount of cash in lieu of a fractional share of Common Stock; provided, however,
    that the Company upon request shall deliver to such Warrantholder a due bill or other
    appropriate instrument evidencing such Warrantholder’s right to receive such additional
    shares, and such cash, upon the occurrence of the event requiring such adjustment.
 
(H)   Adjustment for Unspecified Actions. If the Company takes any action affecting the
    Common Stock, other than actions described in this Section 13, which in the opinion of
    the Board would adversely affect the exercise rights of the Warrantholder, the Exercise
    Price for the Warrants and/or the number of Shares received upon exercise of the Warrant
    shall be adjusted for the Warrantholder’s benefit, to the extent permitted by law, in such
    manner, and at such time, as such Board after consultation with the Investor shall
    reasonably determine to be equitable in the circumstances. Failure of the Board to
    provide for any such adjustment will be evidence that the Board has determined that it is
    equitable to make no such adjustments in the circumstances.
 
(I)   Statement Regarding Adjustments. Whenever the Exercise Price or the number of Shares
    into which this Warrant is exercisable shall be adjusted as provided in Section 13, the
    Company shall forthwith file at the principal office of the Company a statement showing
    in reasonable detail the facts requiring such adjustment and the Exercise Price that shall
    be in effect and the number of Shares into which this Warrant shall be exercisable after
    such adjustment, and the Company shall also cause a copy of such statement to be sent by
    mail, first class postage prepaid, to each Warrantholder at the address appearing in the
    Company’s records.
 
(J)   Notice of Adjustment Event. In the event that the Company shall propose to take any
    action of the type described in this Section 13 (but only if the action of the type described
    in this Section 13 would result in an adjustment in the Exercise Price or the number of
    Shares into which this Warrant is exercisable or a change in the type of securities or
    property to be delivered upon exercise of this Warrant), the Company shall give notice to
    the Warrantholder, in the manner set forth in Section 13(I), which notice shall specify the
    record date, if any, with respect to any such action and the approximate date on which
    such action is to take place. Such notice shall also set forth the facts with respect thereto
    as shall be reasonably necessary to indicate the effect on the Exercise Price and the
    number, kind or class of shares or other securities or property which shall be deliverable
    upon exercise of this Warrant. In the case of any action which would require the fixing
 
 
- 13 -


        of a record date, such notice shall be given at least 10 days prior to the date so fixed, and
        in case of all other action, such notice shall be given at least 15 days prior to the taking of
        such proposed action. Failure to give such notice, or any defect therein, shall not affect
        the legality or validity of any such action.
 
    (K)   No Impairment. The Company will not, by amendment of its Articles or through any
        reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of
        securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or
        performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed hereunder by the Company,
        but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of this
        Warrant and in taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to
        protect the rights of the Warrantholder.
 
    (L)   Proceedings Prior to Any Action Requiring Adjustment. As a condition precedent to the
        taking of any action which would require an adjustment pursuant to this Section 13, the
        Company shall take any action which may be necessary, including obtaining regulatory,
        New York Stock Exchange or stockholder approvals or exemptions, in order that the
        Company may thereafter validly and legally issue as fully paid and nonassessable all
        shares of Common Stock that the Warrantholder is entitled to receive upon exercise of
        this Warrant pursuant to this Section 13.
 
    (M)   Adjustment Rules. Any adjustments pursuant to this Section 13 shall be made
        successively whenever an event referred to herein shall occur. If an adjustment in
        Exercise Price made hereunder would reduce the Exercise Price to an amount below par
        value of the Common Stock, then such adjustment in Exercise Price made hereunder shall
        reduce the Exercise Price to the par value of the Common Stock.
 
14.        Change of Control. Upon the occurrence of a Preliminary Control Event, and by delivering
    written notice thereof to the Company, the Warrantholder may cause the Company to purchase
    any Warrant, in whole or in part, acquired hereunder that the Warrantholder then holds, at a
    valuation based on a computation of the option value of the Warrant using Black-Scholes
    calculation methods and making the assumptions described in the Black-Scholes methodology
    described in Exhibit A. Payment by the Company to the Warrantholder of such purchase price
    shall be due only upon the occurrence of the Change in Control and on the date of the occurrence
    of the Change of Control, subject to the mechanics described in the last paragraph of Exhibit A.
    At the election of the Company, all or any portion of such purchase price may be paid in Shares
    valued at the Market Price of a share of Common Stock as of (A) the last trading day prior to the
    date on which this payment occurs or (B) the first date of the announcement of such Preliminary
    Control Event (whichever is less), so long as such payment does not cause the Company to fail to
    comply with applicable New York Stock Exchange requirements or the requirements of any other
    Governmental Entities. To the extent that a payment in Common Shares would cause the
    Company to fail to comply with New York Stock Exchange rules, once the maximum number of
    Shares has been paid, the remainder of such purchase price may be paid in the form of cash. The
    Company agrees that it will not take any action resulting in a Preliminary Control Event in the
    absence of definitive documentation providing for such election right of the Warrantholder
    pursuant to this Section 14. Under no circumstances shall the Warrantholder be restricted from
    engaging in any hedging or derivative program reasonably necessary in the opinion of the
    Warrantholder to secure the option value of this Warrant so adjusted.
 
15.   Contest and Appraisal Rights. Upon each determination of Market Price or fair market value, as
    the case may be, hereunder, the Company shall promptly give notice thereof to the
 
- 14 -


    Warrantholder, setting forth in reasonable detail the calculation of such Market Price or fair
    market value, and the method and basis of determination thereof, as the case may be. If the
    Warrantholder (or if there is more than one Warrantholder, a majority in interest of
    Warrantholders) shall disagree with such determination and shall, by notice to the Company
    given within fifteen (15) days after the Company’s notice of such determination, elect to dispute
    such determination, such dispute shall be resolved in accordance with this Section 15. In the
    event that a determination of Market Price, or fair market value (if such determination solely
    involves Market Price), is disputed, such dispute shall be submitted, at the Company’s expense, to
    a New York Stock Exchange member firm selected by the Company and acceptable to the
    Warrantholder, whose determination of Market Price or fair market value, as the case may be,
    shall be binding on the Company and the Warrantholder. In the event that a determination of fair
    market value, other than a determination solely involving Market Price, is disputed, such dispute
    shall be resolved through the Appraisal Procedure.
 
16.   Governing Law. This Warrant shall be binding upon any successors or assigns of the Company.
    This Warrant shall constitute a contract under the laws of New York and for all purposes shall be
    construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of New York, without giving effect to the
    conflict of laws principles.
 
17.   Attorneys’ Fees. In any litigation, arbitration or court proceeding between the Company and the
    Warrantholder as the holder of this Warrant relating hereto, the prevailing party shall be entitled
    to reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred in enforcing this Warrant.
 
18.   Amendments. This Warrant may be amended and the observance of any term of this Warrant
    may be waived only with the written consent of the Company and the Warrantholder.
 
19.   Notices. All notices hereunder shall be in writing and shall be effective (A) on the day on which
    delivered if delivered personally or transmitted by telex or telegram or telecopier with evidence of
    receipt, (B) one Business Day after the date on which the same is delivered to a nationally
    recognized overnight courier service with evidence of receipt, or (C) five Business Days after the
    date on which the same is deposited, postage prepaid, in the U.S. mail, sent by certified or
    registered mail, return receipt requested, and addressed to the party to be notified at the address
    indicated below for the Company, or at the address for the Warrantholder set forth in the registry
    maintained by the Company pursuant to Section 9, or at such other address and/or telecopy or
    telex number and/or to the attention of such other person as the Company or the Warrantholder
    may designate by ten-day advance written notice.
 
20.        Prohibited Actions. The Company agrees that it will not take any action which would entitle the
    Warrantholder to an adjustment of the Exercise Price if the total number of shares of Common
    Stock issuable after such action upon exercise of this Warrant, together with all shares of
    Common Stock then outstanding and all shares of Common Stock then issuable upon the exercise
    of all outstanding options, warrants, conversion and other rights, would exceed the total number
    of shares of Common Stock then authorized by its Restated Articles of Incorporation.
 
21.   Entire Agreement. This Warrant and the forms attached hereto, and the Investment Agreement,
    contain the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and
    supersede all prior and contemporaneous arrangements or undertakings with respect thereto.

For the purpose of this Exhibit A:

Acquiror” means (A) the third party that has entered into definitive

    cash” deal, the cash per share offered to the Company’s share-
    holders by the Acquiror; (B) in the event of an “all stock” deal,
    (1) in the event of a fixed exchange ratio transaction, the product
    of (i) the average of the Market Price of the Acquiror’s common
    stock for the ten (10) trading day period ending on the day pre-
    ceding the date of the Preliminary Control Event and (ii) the
    number of Acquiror’s shares being offered for one share of
    Common Stock and (2) in the event of a fixed value transaction,
    the value offered by the Acquiror for one share of Common
    Stock; (C) in the event of a transaction contemplating various
    forms of consideration for each share of Common Stock, the cash
    portion, if any, shall be valued as clause (A) above and the stock
    portion shall be valued as clause (B) above and any other forms
    of consideration shall be valued by the Company in good faith,
    without applying any discounts to such consideration.
    In the event of all other Change of Control events, the average of
    the Market Price of the Common Stock for the five (5) trading
    day period beginning on the date of the Preliminary Control
    Event.

- A1 -


  Such valuation of the Warrant based on the Black-Scholes methodology shall not be discounted in any
  way. If the Warrantholder disputes such Black-Scholes valuation pursuant to this Exhibit A as calculated
  by the Company, the Company and the Warrantholder will choose a mutually-agreeable firm to compute
  the valuation of the Warrant using the guidelines above, and such valuation shall be final. The fees and
  expenses of such firm shall be borne equally by the Company and the Warrantholder.
  The Company covenants that it will not close the Change of Control transaction or otherwise facilitate the
    closing of a tender or exchange offer as referenced above until giving the Warrantholder at least five (5)
  Business Days to sell or distribute the Common Stock to be received in an exchange and will cooperate
  with the Warrantholder to ensure that there is an effective registration statement available to facilitate
  such a sale during such five (5) Business Day period or an effective opportunity is provided in the case of
  a tender or exchange offer as referenced above to tender such shares in to the offer.

                                                                                                                                                                     ;                                        Issue Date: January 30, 2008

1.   Definitions. Unless the context otherwise requires, when used herein the following terms shall
    have the meanings indicated.
 
    Affiliate” means, with respect to any Person, any Person directly or indirectly controlling,
    controlled by or under common control with, such other person, provided, that with respect to the
    Company, also includes Channel Reinsurance Ltd. For purposes of this definition, “control”
    (including, with correlative meanings, the terms “controlled by” and “under common control
    with”) when used with respect to any Person, means the possession, directly or indirectly, of the
    power to cause the direction of management or policies of such person, whether through the
    ownership of voting securities by contract or otherwise.
 
    Applicable Price” means the greater of (A) the greater of the Market Price per share of
    outstanding Common Stock on (i) the date on which the Company issues or sells any Common
    Stock other than Excluded Stock or (ii) the first date of the announcement of such issuance or sale
    or (B) the Buy-In Price.
 
    Appraisal Procedure” means a procedure whereby two independent appraisers, one chosen by
    the Company and one by the Warrantholder (or if there is more than one Warrantholder, a
    majority in interest of Warrantholders), shall mutually agree upon the determinations then the
    subject of appraisal. Each party shall deliver a notice to the other appointing its appraiser within
    fifteen (15) days after the Appraisal Procedure is invoked. If within thirty (30) days after
    appointment of the two appraisers they are unable to agree upon the amount in question, a third
    independent appraiser shall be chosen within ten (10) days thereafter by the mutual consent of
    such first two appraisers or, if such first two appraisers fail to agree upon the appointment of a
    third appraiser, such appointment shall be made by the American Arbitration Association, or any
    organization successor thereto, from a panel of arbitrators having experience in the appraisal of
    the subject matter to be appraised. The decision of the third appraiser so appointed and chosen

 


shall be given within thirty (30) days after the selection of such third appraiser. If three
appraisers shall be appointed and the determination of one appraiser is disparate from the middle
determination by more than twice the amount by which the other determination is disparate from
the middle determination, then the determination of such appraiser shall be excluded, the
remaining two determinations shall be averaged and such average shall be binding and conclusive
on the Company and the Warrantholder; otherwise, the average of all three determinations shall
be binding and conclusive on the Company and the Warrantholder. The costs of conducting any
Appraisal Procedure shall be borne by the Warrantholder requesting such Appraisal Procedure,
except (A) the fees and expenses of the appraiser appointed by the Company and any other costs
incurred by the Company shall be borne by the Company and (B) if such Appraisal Procedure
shall result in a determination that is disparate by 5% or more from the Company’s initial
determination, all costs of conducting such Appraisal Procedure shall be borne by the Company.
 
Beneficially Own,” “Beneficial Owner” and “Beneficial Ownership” are defined in Rules 13d-3
and 13d-5 of the Exchange Act.
 
Board” means the Board of Directors of the Company.

appointed, subject to satisfaction of all legal and governance requirements regarding service as a
director of the Company, to the Board on the Closing Date (as defined in the Investment
Agreement).

    three (3) Business Days, a new warrant in substantially identical form for the purchase of that

    exercise receive, in lieu of the shares of Common Stock, cash in an amount equal to the product

    the terms of this Warrant. The Company hereby represents and warrants that any Shares issued
    upon the exercise of this Warrant in accordance with the provisions of Section 3 will, upon such
    exercise, be duly and validly authorized and issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all
    taxes, liens and charges (other than liens or charges created by the Warrantholder or taxes in
    respect of any transfer occurring contemporaneously therewith). The Company agrees that the
    Shares so issued will be deemed to have been issued to the Warrantholder as of the close of

    Company in accordance with the terms of this Warrant, notwithstanding that the stock transfer
    books of the Company may then be closed or certificates representing such Shares may not be
    actually delivered on such date. The Company will, beginning at a time prior to the Exercise

5.   No Fractional Shares or Scrip. No fractional Shares or scrip representing fractional Shares shall
    be issued upon any exercise of this Warrant. In lieu of any fractional Share to which the

    payment equal to the Market Price of the Common Stock less the Exercise Price for such
    fractional share.
 
6.   No Rights as Shareholders; Transfer Books. This Warrant does not entitle the Warrantholder to

    terms, at the office of the Company, and the Company shall be entitled to rely in all respects,
    prior to written notice to the contrary, upon such registry.
 
10.   Loss, Theft, Destruction or Mutilation of Warrant. Upon receipt by the Company of evidence

    Commission thereunder (or, if the Company is not required to file such reports, it will, upon the
    request of any Warrantholder, make publicly available such information as necessary to permit
    sales pursuant to Rule 144), and it will use reasonable best efforts to take such further action as
    any Warrantholder may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable
    such holder to sell the Warrants without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation
    of the exemptions provided by (i) Rule 144 under the Securities Act, as such Rule may be
    amended from time to time, or (ii) any similar rule or regulation hereafter adopted by the

    exercise of this Warrant shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as follows; provided,
    that no single event shall be subject to adjustment under more than one subsection of this Section
    13 so as to result in duplication:
 
    (A)   Common Stock Issued at Less than the Applicable Price. If the Company issues or sells
        any Common Stock other than Excluded Stock for consideration per share less than the
        Applicable Price, then the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to each such
        issuance or sale will immediately (except as provided below) be reduced to the price
        determined by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such issuance
        or sale by a fraction, (x) the numerator of which shall be (1) the number of shares of
        Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issuance or sale plus (2) the
        number of shares of Common Stock which the aggregate consideration received by the
        Company for the total number of such additional shares of Common Stock so issued or
        sold would purchase at the Applicable Price, and (y) the denominator of which shall be
        the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such issuance or
        sale. In such event, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of
        this Warrant shall be increased to the number obtained by dividing (x) the product of (1)
 
- 8 -


the number of Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant before such adjustment
and (2) the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the issuance or sale giving rise to
this adjustment, by (y) the new Exercise Price determined in accordance with the
immediately preceding sentence. For the purposes of any adjustment of the Exercise
Price and the number of Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant pursuant to this
Section 13(A), the following provisions shall be applicable, provided, however, no
increase in the Exercise Price or reduction in the number of Shares issuable upon exercise
of this Warrant shall be made pursuant to subclauses (i) or (ii) of this Section 13(A):
 
(i)   In the case of the issuance or sale of Common Stock for cash, the amount of the
    consideration received by the Company shall be deemed to be the amount of the
    gross cash proceeds received by the Company for such Common Stock before
    deducting therefrom any discounts or commissions allowed, paid or incurred by
    the Company for any underwriting or otherwise in connection with the issuance
    and sale thereof.
 
(ii)   In the case of the issuance or sale of Common Stock (otherwise than upon the
    conversion of shares of Capital Stock or other securities of the Company) for a
    consideration in whole or in part other than cash, including securities acquired in
    exchange therefor (other than securities by their terms so exchangeable), the
    consideration other than cash shall be deemed to be the fair value thereof as
    determined by the Board, before deducting therefrom any discounts or
    commissions allowed, paid or incurred by the Company for any underwriting or
    otherwise in connection with the issuance and sale thereof, provided, however,
    that such per share fair value as determined by the Board shall not exceed the
    Applicable Price.
 
(iii)   In the case of the issuance of (1) options, warrants or other rights to purchase or
    acquire Common Stock (whether or not at the time exercisable) or (2) securities
    by their terms convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock (whether or
    not at the time so convertible or exchangeable) or options, warrants or rights to
    purchase such convertible or exchangeable securities (whether or not at the time
    exercisable):
 
    (1)   The aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable
        upon exercise of such options, warrants or other rights to purchase or
        acquire Common Stock shall be deemed to have been issued at the time
        such options, warrants or rights are issued and for a consideration equal
        to the consideration (determined in the manner provided in Section
        13(A)(i) and (ii)), if any, received by the Company upon the issuance or
        sale of such options, warrants or rights plus the minimum purchase price
        provided in such options, warrants or rights for the Common Stock
        covered thereby.
 
    (2)   The aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable
        upon conversion of or in exchange for any such convertible or
        exchangeable securities, or upon the exercise of options, warrants or
        other rights to purchase or acquire such convertible or exchangeable
        securities and the subsequent conversion or exchange thereof, shall be
        deemed to have been issued at the time such securities were issued or
        such options, warrants or rights were issued and for a consideration equal
 
 
   - 9 -


        to the consideration, if any, received by the Company for any such
        securities and related options, warrants or rights (excluding any cash
        received on account of accrued interest or accrued dividends), plus the
        additional consideration (in each case, determined in the manner
        provided in Section 13(A)(i) and (ii)), if any, to be received by the
        Company upon the conversion or exchange of such securities, or upon
        the exercise of any related options, warrants or rights to purchase or
        acquire such convertible or exchangeable securities and the subsequent
        conversion or exchange thereof.
 
    (3)   On any change in the number of shares of Common Stock deliverable
        upon exercise of any such options, warrants or rights or conversion or
        exchange of such convertible or exchangeable securities or any change in
        the consideration to be received by the Company upon such exercise,
        conversion or exchange, but excluding changes resulting from the anti-
        dilution provisions thereof (to the extent comparable to the anti-dilution
        provisions contained herein), the Exercise Price and the number of
        Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant as then in effect shall
        forthwith be readjusted to such Exercise Price and number of Shares as
        would have been obtained had an adjustment been made upon the
        issuance or sale of such options, warrants or rights not exercised prior to
        such change, or of such convertible or exchangeable securities not
        converted or exchanged prior to such change, upon the basis of such
        change.
 
    (4)   On the expiration or cancellation of any such options, warrants or rights
        (without exercise), or the termination of the right to convert or exchange
        such convertible or exchangeable securities (without exercise), if the
        Exercise Price and the number of Shares issuable upon exercise of this
        Warrant shall have been adjusted upon the issuance or sale thereof, the
        Exercise Price and the number of Shares issuable upon exercise of this
        Warrant shall forthwith be readjusted to such Exercise Price and number
        of Shares as would have been obtained had an adjustment been made
        upon the issuance or sale of such options, warrants, rights or such
        convertible or exchangeable securities on the basis of the issuance of
        only the number of shares of Common Stock actually issued upon the
        exercise of such options, warrants or rights, or upon the conversion or
exchange of such convertible or exchangeable securities.
 
    (5)   If the Exercise Price and the number of Shares issuable upon exercise of
        this warrant shall have been adjusted upon the issuance or sale of any
        such options, warrants, rights or convertible or exchangeable securities,
        no further adjustment of the Exercise Price and the number of Shares
        issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be made for the actual
        issuance of Common Stock upon the exercise, conversion or exchange
        thereof; provided, however, that no increase in the Exercise Price or
        reduction in the number of Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant
        shall be made pursuant to subclauses (1) or (2) of this Section 13(A)(iii).
 
(iv)   For the avoidance of doubt, (i) the Company’s issuance or sale of shares of Com-
    mon Stock in the Rights Offering to the extent not purchased by the Investor pur-
 
 
- 10 -


                       suant to Section 4.10 of the Investment Agreement shall be subject to the provi-
                       sions of this Section 13(A) and (ii) the Company’s issuance or sale of shares of
                       Common Stock in the Rights Offering to the extent purchased by the Investor
                       pursuant to Section 4.10 of the Investment Agreement shall not be subject to the
                       provisions of this Section 13(A).
 
(B)   Stock Splits, Subdivisions, Reclassifications or Combinations. If the Company shall (i)
    declare a dividend or make a distribution on its Common Stock in shares of Common
    Stock, (ii) subdivide or reclassify the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater
    number of shares, or (iii) combine or reclassify the outstanding Common Stock into a
    smaller number of shares, the number of Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant at
    the time of the record date for such dividend or distribution or the effective date of such
    subdivision, combination or reclassification shall be proportionately adjusted so that the
    Warrantholder after such date shall be entitled to purchase the number of shares of
    Common Stock which such holder would have owned or been entitled to receive after
    such date had this Warrant been exercised immediately prior to such date. In such event,
    the Exercise Price in effect at the time of the record date for such dividend or distribution
    or the effective date of such subdivision, combination or reclassification shall be adjusted
    to the number obtained by dividing (x) the product of (1) the number of Shares issuable
    upon the exercise of this Warrant before such adjustment and (2) the Exercise Price in
    effect immediately prior to the issuance giving rise to this adjustment by (y) the new
    number of shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrant determined pursuant to the
    immediately preceding sentence.
 
(C)   Other Distributions. In case the Company shall fix a record date for the making of a
    distribution to all holders of shares of its Common Stock (i) of shares of any class other
    than its Common Stock, (ii) of evidence of indebtedness of the Company or any
    Subsidiary, (iii) of assets (excluding Ordinary Cash Dividends, and dividends or
    distributions referred to in Section 13(B)), or (iv) of rights or warrants (excluding those
    referred to in Section 13(B)), in each such case, the Exercise Price in effect prior thereto
    shall be reduced immediately thereafter to the price determined by dividing (x) an
    amount equal to the difference resulting from (1) the number of shares of Common Stock
    outstanding on such record date multiplied by the Exercise Price per Share on such record
    date, less (2) the fair market value (as reasonably determined by the Board) of said shares
    or evidences of indebtedness or assets or rights or warrants to be so distributed, by (y) the
    number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such record date; such adjustment
    shall be made successively whenever such a record date is fixed. In such event, the
    number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be
    increased to the number obtained by dividing (x) the product of (1) the number of Shares
    issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant before such adjustment, and (2) the Exercise
    Price in effect immediately prior to the issuance giving rise to this adjustment by (y) the
    new Exercise Price determined in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence.
    In the event that such distribution is not so made, the Exercise Price and the number of
    Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant then in effect shall be readjusted, effective
    as of the date when the Board determines not to distribute such shares, evidences of
    indebtedness, assets, rights or warrants, as the case may be, to the Exercise Price that
    would then be in effect and the number of Shares that would then be issuable upon
    exercise of this Warrant if such record date had not been fixed.
 
(D)   Certain Repurchases of Common Stock. In case the Company effects a Pro Rata
    Repurchase of Common Stock, then the Exercise Price shall be reduced to the price
 
- 11 -


    determined by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the effective
    date of such Pro Rata Repurchase by a fraction of which the numerator shall be (i) the
    product of (x) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately before
    such Pro Rata Repurchase and (y) the Market Price of a share of Common Stock on the
    trading day immediately preceding the first public announcement by the Company or any
    of its Affiliates of the intent to effect such Pro Rata Repurchase, minus (ii) the aggregate
    purchase price of the Pro Rata Repurchase, and of which the denominator shall be the
    product of (i) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to
    such Pro Rata Repurchase minus the number of shares of Common Stock so repurchased
    and (ii) the Market Price per share of Common Stock on the trading day immediately
    preceding the first public announcement of such Pro Rata Repurchase. In such event, the
    number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be
    increased to the number obtained by dividing (x) the product of (1) the number of Shares
    issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant before such adjustment, and (2) the Exercise
    Price in effect immediately prior to the Pro Rata Repurchase giving rise to this
    adjustment by (y) the new Exercise Price determined in accordance with the immediately
    preceding sentence.
 
(E)   Business Combinations. Subject to Section 14 of this Warrant, in case of any Business
    Combination or reclassification of Common Stock (other than a reclassification of
    Common Stock referred to in Section 13(B)), any Shares issued or issuable upon exercise
    of this Warrant after the date of such Business Combination or reclassification, shall be
    exchangeable for the number of shares of stock or other securities or property (including
    cash) to which the Common Stock issuable (at the time of such Business Combination or
    reclassification) upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such Business
    Combination or reclassification would have been entitled upon such Business
    Combination or reclassification; and in any such case, if necessary, the provisions set
    forth herein with respect to the rights and interests thereafter of the Warrantholder shall
    be appropriately adjusted so as to be applicable, as nearly as may reasonably be, to any
    shares of stock or other securities or property thereafter deliverable on the exercise of this
    Warrant. In determining the kind and amount of stock, securities or the property
    receivable upon consummation of such Business Combination, if the holders of Common
    Stock have the right to elect the kind or amount of consideration receivable upon
    consummation of such Business Combination, then the Warrantholder shall have the right
    to make a similar election upon exercise of this Warrant with respect to the number of
    shares of stock or other securities or property which the Warrantholder will receive upon
    exercise of this Warrant.
 
(F)   Rounding of Calculations; Minimum Adjustments. All calculations under this Section 13
    shall be made to the nearest one-tenth (1/10th) of a cent or to the nearest one-hundredth
    (1/100th) of a share, as the case may be. Any provision of this Section 13 to the contrary
    notwithstanding, no adjustment in the Exercise Price or the number of Shares into which
    this Warrant is exercisable shall be made if the amount of such adjustment would be less
    than $0.01 or one-tenth (1/10th) of a share of Common Stock, respectively, but any such
    amount shall be carried forward and an adjustment with respect thereto shall be made at
    the time of and together with any subsequent adjustment which, together with such
    amount and any other amount or amounts so carried forward, shall aggregate $0.01 or
    1/10th of a share of Common Stock, respectively, or more.
 
(G)   Timing of Issuance of Additional Common Stock Upon Certain Adjustments. In any
    case in which the provisions of this Section 13 shall require that an adjustment shall
 
- 12 -


    become effective immediately after a record date for an event, the Company may defer
    until the occurrence of such event (i) issuing to the Warrantholder of this Warrant
    exercised after such record date and before the occurrence of such event the additional
    shares of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise by reason of the adjustment
    required by such event over and above the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such
    exercise before giving effect to such adjustment and (ii) paying to such Warrantholder
    any amount of cash in lieu of a fractional share of Common Stock; provided, however,
    that the Company upon request shall deliver to such Warrantholder a due bill or other
    appropriate instrument evidencing such Warrantholder’s right to receive such additional
    shares, and such cash, upon the occurrence of the event requiring such adjustment.
 
(H)   Adjustment for Unspecified Actions. If the Company takes any action affecting the
    Common Stock, other than actions described in this Section 13, which in the opinion of
    the Board would adversely affect the exercise rights of the Warrantholder, the Exercise
    Price for the Warrants and/or the number of Shares received upon exercise of the Warrant
    shall be adjusted for the Warrantholder’s benefit, to the extent permitted by law, in such
    manner, and at such time, as such Board after consultation with the Investor shall
    reasonably determine to be equitable in the circumstances. Failure of the Board to
    provide for any such adjustment will be evidence that the Board has determined that it is
    equitable to make no such adjustments in the circumstances.
 
(I)   Statement Regarding Adjustments. Whenever the Exercise Price or the number of Shares
    into which this Warrant is exercisable shall be adjusted as provided in Section 13, the
    Company shall forthwith file at the principal office of the Company a statement showing
    in reasonable detail the facts requiring such adjustment and the Exercise Price that shall
    be in effect and the number of Shares into which this Warrant shall be exercisable after
    such adjustment, and the Company shall also cause a copy of such statement to be sent by
    mail, first class postage prepaid, to each Warrantholder at the address appearing in the
    Company’s records.
 
(J)   Notice of Adjustment Event. In the event that the Company shall propose to take any
    action of the type described in this Section 13 (but only if the action of the type described
    in this Section 13 would result in an adjustment in the Exercise Price or the number of
    Shares into which this Warrant is exercisable or a change in the type of securities or
    property to be delivered upon exercise of this Warrant), the Company shall give notice to
    the Warrantholder, in the manner set forth in Section 13(I), which notice shall specify the
    record date, if any, with respect to any such action and the approximate date on which
    such action is to take place. Such notice shall also set forth the facts with respect thereto
    as shall be reasonably necessary to indicate the effect on the Exercise Price and the
    number, kind or class of shares or other securities or property which shall be deliverable
    upon exercise of this Warrant. In the case of any action which would require the fixing
    of a record date, such notice shall be given at least 10 days prior to the date so fixed, and
    in case of all other action, such notice shall be given at least 15 days prior to the taking of
    such proposed action. Failure to give such notice, or any defect therein, shall not affect
    the legality or validity of any such action.
 
(K)   No Impairment. The Company will not, by amendment of its Articles or through any
    reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of
    securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or
    performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed hereunder by the Company,
    but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of this
 
- 13 -


        Warrant and in taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to
        protect the rights of the Warrantholder.
 
    (L)   Proceedings Prior to Any Action Requiring Adjustment. As a condition precedent to the
        taking of any action which would require an adjustment pursuant to this Section 13, the
        Company shall take any action which may be necessary, including obtaining regulatory,
        New York Stock Exchange or stockholder approvals or exemptions, in order that the
        Company may thereafter validly and legally issue as fully paid and nonassessable all
        shares of Common Stock that the Warrantholder is entitled to receive upon exercise of
        this Warrant pursuant to this Section 13.
 
    (M)   Adjustment Rules. Any adjustments pursuant to this Section 13 shall be made
        successively whenever an event referred to herein shall occur. If an adjustment in
        Exercise Price made hereunder would reduce the Exercise Price to an amount below par
        value of the Common Stock, then such adjustment in Exercise Price made hereunder shall
        reduce the Exercise Price to the par value of the Common Stock.
 
14.   Change of Control. Upon the occurrence of a Preliminary Control Event, and by delivering
    written notice thereof to the Company, the Warrantholder may cause the Company to purchase
    any Warrant, in whole or in part, acquired hereunder that the Warrantholder then holds, at a
    valuation based on a computation of the option value of the Warrant using Black-Scholes
    calculation methods and making the assumptions described in the Black-Scholes methodology
    described in Exhibit A. Payment by the Company to the Warrantholder of such purchase price
    shall be due only upon the occurrence of the Change in Control and on the date of the occurrence
    of the Change of Control, subject to the mechanics described in the last paragraph of Exhibit A.
    At the election of the Company, all or any portion of such purchase price may be paid in Shares
    valued at the Market Price of a share of Common Stock as of (A) the last trading day prior to the
    date on which this payment occurs or (B) the first date of the announcement of such Preliminary
    Control Event (whichever is less), so long as such payment does not cause the Company to fail to
    comply with applicable New York Stock Exchange requirements or the requirements of any other
    Governmental Entities. To the extent that a payment in Common Shares would cause the
    Company to fail to comply with New York Stock Exchange rules, once the maximum number of
    Shares has been paid, the remainder of such purchase price may be paid in the form of cash. The
    Company agrees that it will not take any action resulting in a Preliminary Control Event in the
    absence of definitive documentation providing for such election right of the Warrantholder
    pursuant to this Section 14. Under no circumstances shall the Warrantholder be restricted from
    engaging in any hedging or derivative program reasonably necessary in the opinion of the
    Warrantholder to secure the option value of this Warrant so adjusted.
 
15.   Contest and Appraisal Rights. Upon each determination of Market Price or fair market value, as
    the case may be, hereunder, the Company shall promptly give notice thereof to the
    Warrantholder, setting forth in reasonable detail the calculation of such Market Price or fair
    market value, and the method and basis of determination thereof, as the case may be. If the
    Warrantholder (or if there is more than one Warrantholder, a majority in interest of
    Warrantholders) shall disagree with such determination and shall, by notice to the Company
    given within fifteen (15) days after the Company’s notice of such determination, elect to dispute
    such determination, such dispute shall be resolved in accordance with this Section 15. In the
    event that a determination of Market Price, or fair market value (if such determination solely
    involves Market Price), is disputed, such dispute shall be submitted, at the Company’s expense, to
    a New York Stock Exchange member firm selected by the Company and acceptable to the
    Warrantholder, whose determination of Market Price or fair market value, as the case may be,
 
- 14 -


    shall be binding on the Company and the Warrantholder. In the event that a determination of fair
    market value, other than a determination solely involving Market Price, is disputed, such dispute
    shall be resolved through the Appraisal Procedure.
 
16.   Governing Law. This Warrant shall be binding upon any successors or assigns of the Company.
    This Warrant shall constitute a contract under the laws of New York and for all purposes shall be
    construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of New York, without giving effect to the
    conflict of laws principles.
 
17.   Attorneys’ Fees. In any litigation, arbitration or court proceeding between the Company and the
    Warrantholder as the holder of this Warrant relating hereto, the prevailing party shall be entitled
    to reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred in enforcing this Warrant.
 
18.   Amendments. This Warrant may be amended and the observance of any term of this Warrant
    may be waived only with the written consent of the Company and the Warrantholder.
 
19.   Notices. All notices hereunder shall be in writing and shall be effective (A) on the day on which
    delivered if delivered personally or transmitted by telex or telegram or telecopier with evidence of
    receipt, (B) one Business Day after the date on which the same is delivered to a nationally
    recognized overnight courier service with evidence of receipt, or (C) five Business Days after the
    date on which the same is deposited, postage prepaid, in the U.S. mail, sent by certified or
    registered mail, return receipt requested, and addressed to the party to be notified at the address
    indicated below for the Company, or at the address for the Warrantholder set forth in the registry
    maintained by the Company pursuant to Section 9, or at such other address and/or telecopy or
    telex number and/or to the attention of such other person as the Company or the Warrantholder
    may designate by ten-day advance written notice.
 
20.   Prohibited Actions. The Company agrees that it will not take any action which would entitle the
    Warrantholder to an adjustment of the Exercise Price if the total number of shares of Common
    Stock issuable after such action upon exercise of this Warrant, together with all shares of
    Common Stock then outstanding and all shares of Common Stock then issuable upon the exercise
    of all outstanding options, warrants, conversion and other rights, would exceed the total number
    of shares of Common Stock then authorized by its Restated Articles of Incorporation.
 
21.   Entire Agreement. This Warrant and the forms attached hereto, and the Investment Agreement,
    contain the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and
    supersede all prior and contemporaneous arrangements or undertakings with respect thereto.

way. If the Warrantholder disputes such Black-Scholes valuation pursuant to this Exhibit A as calculated
by the Company, the Company and the Warrantholder will choose a mutually-agreeable firm to compute
the valuation of the Warrant using the guidelines above, and such valuation shall be final. The fees and
expenses of such firm shall be borne equally by the Company and the Warrantholder.
The Company covenants that it will not close the Change of Control transaction or otherwise facilitate the
closing of a tender or exchange offer as referenced above until giving the Warrantholder at least five (5)
Business Days to sell or distribute the Common Stock to be received in an exchange and will cooperate
with the Warrantholder to ensure that there is an effective registration statement available to facilitate
such a sale during such five (5) Business Day period or an effective opportunity is provided in the case of

VOTING TRUST AGREEMENT

     This VOTING TRUST AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), dated as of January 30, 2008, is entered into by and among MBIA Inc., a corporation organized under the laws of Connecticut (the “Company”), Warburg Pincus Private Equity X, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the “Investor”), and U.S. Bank National Association, a national banking association (the “Voting Trustee”), and each person that may be designated by the Investor as a Voting Trustee.

W I T N E S S E T H :

     WHEREAS, the Company and the Investor have entered into an Investment Agreement, dated as of December 10, 2007 (the “Investment Agreement”);

     WHEREAS, the Investment Agreement contemplates the parties entering into this Agreement at the Closing under the Investment Agreement pending receipt of applicable Insurance Regulatory Approvals pursuant to which the Investor would: (a) enter into a separate custodial agreement with the Voting Trustee whereby the Investor would deposit in a custodial account with the Voting Trustee 9,951,760 shares of common stock of the Company, par value $1.00 per share (the “Common Stock”), which represents the number of shares in excess of 9.9% of the Common Stock as of the Closing Date, all additional shares of Common Stock that may be issued as a dividend on such shares and all other shares of Common Stock or any other securities of the Company having voting power (as defined in Section 22 hereof) (such shares the “Voting Shares”) hereinafter acquired by the Investor during the term of this Agreement, and at the Investor’s election, a ny Warrants (as defined in the Investment Agreement) issued pursuant to the Investment Agreement (collectively, the “Securities”) (other than Voting Shares that are covered by a separate voting trust agreement); and (b) vest in the Voting Trustee, subject to the terms below, the power to vote the Securities.

     WHEREAS, terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings given them in the Investment Agreement.

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and of the mutual covenants and conditions contained herein, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1. ISSUANCE AND TRANSFER OF SECURITIES TO VOTING
TRUSTEE.

     (a) Concurrently with its acquisition of Securities at the Closing, the Investor shall deposit, or shall cause its Affiliates to deposit, with the Voting Trustee Securities to be issued on the Closing Date in excess of 9.9% of the total vote represented by all Voting Shares outstanding on the Closing Date (after giving effect to the acquisition of Securities by the Investor);

     (b) The Voting Trustee hereby accepts the trust created by this Agreement (the “Trust”), and covenants and agrees to perform faithfully and diligently the covenants and agreements contained herein.


     (c) Promptly following the execution of this Agreement, the Investor shall enter into a custodial agreement with the Voting Trustee pursuant to which the Investor shall deposit the Securities in a custodial account to be held by the Voting Trustee who shall act as custodian and hold the Securities for the term of this Agreement, subject to terms to be mutually agreed upon by the Investor and the Voting Trustee, provided that such terms are not inconsistent with the purpose and terms of this Agreement.

     (d) The Securities deposited in the Trust at the Closing, together with any securities deposited with the Voting Trustee pursuant to subparagraph (e) of this Section 1 or any other provision of this Agreement, are hereinafter referred to as the “Deposited Securities”.

     (e) In the event that the Investor or any of its Affiliates or any other holder of a Voting Trust Certificate acquires, during the term of the Trust, additional securities of the Company having voting powers, the Investor or such other holder shall promptly deposit, or the Investor shall cause its Affiliates promptly to deposit, certificates for such additional Securities with the Voting Trustee.

     (f) No person other than the Investor, any holder of Voting Trust Certificates or any Affiliate of the Investor may deposit any Securities with the Voting Trustee.

     (g) All certificates for Securities deposited with the Voting Trustee pursuant to this Agreement shall be duly endorsed or accompanied by duly executed stock powers or other instruments of transfer. Such certificates shall be surrendered by the Voting Trustee to the Company for cancellation in exchange for the issuance by the Company, following the filing of this Agreement at the registered office of the Company in the State of Connecticut pursuant to Section 26 hereof, to the Voting Trustee of new stock certificates registered in the name of the Voting Trustee in its capacity as trustee of the Trust.

     (h) Upon receipt of certificates for Deposited Securities pursuant to subparagraph (a) or (c) of this Section 1, the Voting Trustee shall issue and deliver to the Investor or its designated Affiliate, as applicable, Voting Trust Certificates in the form set forth in Section 14 hereof evidencing the number and class of Deposited Securities so deposited.

2. VOTING TRUSTEE.

     (a) The Voting Trustee (and any successor Voting Trustee) may at any time resign by notifying the Investor and the Company in writing of such resignation, which shall take effect ten days thereafter or upon the earlier acceptance thereof by the Company and the Investor. The Investor may also, at any time upon ten days’ prior notice, cause the resignation and replacement of the Voting Trustee. Subject to subparagraph (b), below, upon the death, incapacity, resignation or disqualification (as described below) of any Voting Trustee, the Investor shall appoint promptly a successor Voting Trustee.

     (b) No person shall be appointed as a successor Voting Trustee if such person is the Investor, an Affiliate of the Investor, or the holder of Voting Trust Certificates (the “Independence Qualifications”). In addition, any Voting Trustee shall be disqualified from serving as a Voting Trustee effective immediately upon the occurrence of any event causing such Voting Trustee no longer to meet the Independence Qualifications. Upon the disqualification of

2


the Voting Trustee or any successor Voting Trustee, such Voting Trustee shall immediately cease to be a Voting Trustee. All appointments of successor Voting Trustees shall be notified to the regulatory authorities set forth on Schedule A to this Agreement (the “Regulators”).

     (c) Any successor Voting Trustee appointed as herein provided shall indicate its acceptance of such appointment by signing a counterpart of this Agreement and upon the filing by the Voting Trustee of such counterpart at the registered office of the Company in the State of New York such successor shall be vested with all the rights, powers, duties and immunities herein conferred upon the Voting Trustee as though such successor had been originally a party to this Agreement as a Voting Trustee.

3. ACTION BY VOTING TRUSTEES.

     If at any time there is more than one Voting Trustee, then the Voting Trustees may act by a unanimous written consent signed by all the Voting Trustees or by the affirmative vote of at least two Voting Trustees at a meeting called by any Voting Trustee upon two days’ notice to the other Voting Trustee(s), unless such notice is waived by each Voting Trustee not receiving such notice. Two Voting Trustees shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at a meeting thereof. The Voting Trustees shall have the power to designate one Voting Trustee to execute certificates and other documents on behalf of all of them in furtherance of their collective decisions. The Voting Trustees may, from time to time, adopt and/or amend their own rules of procedure, and shall record and keep records of all their proceedings at their office.

4. RIGHTS AND POWERS OF VOTING TRUSTEE.
