<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">On May 23, 2012, the shareholders of AmTrust Financial Services,
Inc., a Delaware corporation (the &ldquo;Company&rdquo;), upon the recommendation of the Company&rsquo;s Board of Directors, approved
amendments to the AmTrust Financial Services, Inc. 2010 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the &ldquo;Omnibus Incentive Plan&rdquo;). The
amendments to the Omnibus Incentive Plan (a) establish a 200,000 share annual limitation on stock-based performance awards for
each year covered by the applicable performance period, up to a maximum of 600,000 shares (excluding dividend equivalents); (b)
modify the $6,000,000 limitation on cash-based performance awards to $4,500,000 million for each year covered by the applicable
performance period, up to a maximum cash-based performance award of $9,000,000; and (c) add book value as one of the business criteria
the Company can use as a performance metric upon which the Company can base Internal Revenue Code Section 162(m)-compliant awards
to its senior executive officers.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">As previously disclosed in the Company&rsquo;s proxy statement
for its 2012 annual meeting of shareholders, subject to shareholder approval of the amendments to the Omnibus Incentive Plan described
above, on March 26, 2012, the Compensation Committee awarded Mr. Zyskind a &ldquo;target&rdquo; share award of 250,000 performance
shares. These performance shares will be earned based upon the Company&rsquo;s performance in return on equity (&ldquo;ROE&rdquo;),
operating income, as adjusted and combined ratio, for the 24-month period commencing January 1, 2012 and ending December 31, 2013,
and will vest in two equal installments on December 31, 2014 and 2015. The actual number of performance shares realized by Mr.
Zyskind will vary from zero to 375,000 performance shares. The Company must achieve target performance of compounded ROE of 15%
and aggregate adjusted operating income of $353 million for the two-year period ended December 31, 2013 for Mr. Zyskind to receive
the target award of 250,000 performance shares. The Company must achieve threshold performance of compounded ROE equal to or in
excess of 12% and aggregate adjusted operating income of $318 million for the two-year period ended December 31, 2013 for Mr. Zyskind
to receive a threshold award of 125,000 performance shares. If the Company achieves ROE of 21% and aggregate adjusted operating
income of at least $459 million for the two-year period, Mr. Zyskind would receive the maximum award of 375,000 performance shares.
For Mr. Zyskind to achieve the performance criteria, the Company must accomplish these ROE and adjusted operating income performance
goals while not allowing the combined ratio to exceed 95%.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">Now that the Company&rsquo;s shareholders have approved the
amendments to the Omnibus Incentive Plan, the target award of 250,000 performance shares to Mr. Zyskind becomes effective on May
24, 2012, the day following the Company&rsquo;s 2012 annual meeting of shareholders.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">The descriptions of the Omnibus Incentive Plan, as amended,
and the award of performance shares to Mr. Zyskind are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the Omnibus
Incentive Plan and performance share award agreement, which are filed as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2 to this Current Report on Form
8-K and incorporated herein by reference.</P>
