After Google search I found this link:

http://www.paymentexpress.co.nz/technical_resources/sslversion_update.html

Which had following for Apache and Mod_SLL:

Apache's httpd.conf 
SSLProtocol -ALL +SSLv3 +TLSv1 
SSLCipherSuite ALL:!aNULL:!ADH:!eNULL:!LOW:!EXP:RC4+RSA:+HIGH:+MEDIUM

So far so good.
