The Reinsurer shall also pay to the Company the Reinsurer’s quota share of Extra Contractual Obligations and Loss in Excess of Policy Limits covered under this Contract.

At expiration of this Contract, the Reinsurer shall return to the Company the ceded unearned portion of the Subject Written Premium, net of provisional ceding commission, as of the date of expiration, on business in force at that time and date. The Reinsurer shall have no liability for losses occurring after expiration.

2. A state insurance department or other legal authority orders the Reinsurer to cease writing business, or the Reinsurer is placed under regulatory supervision.

3. The Reinsurer has become insolvent or has been placed into liquidation or receivership (whether voluntary or involuntary), or there have been instituted against it proceedings for the appointment of a receiver, liquidator, rehabilitator, conservator, trustee in bankruptcy, or other agent known by whatever name, to take possession of its assets or control of its operations.

4. The Reinsurer has merged with or has become acquired or controlled by any company, corporation, or individual(s) not controlling the Reinsurer’s operations at the inception of this Contract.

All reinsurance under this Contract shall be subject to the same rates, terms, conditions, waivers and interpretations, and to the same modifications and alterations as the respective Policies of the Company. However, in no event shall this be construed in any way to provide coverage outside the terms and conditions set forth in this Contract.

Each party shall provide to the other party any reasonable information requested by such party in connection with such commutation. The Reinsurer will not refuse to consider any reasonable requests for commutation.

If either party refuses or neglects to appoint an actuary within such 30 day period, the other party may appoint the second actuary within 10 days after the end of such 30 day period. The two chosen actuaries shall then select a third actuary within 30 days after the selection of the second actuary. If the two actuaries fail to agree on the selection of the third actuary within such 30 day period, then each actuary shall name three individuals, of whom the other shall decline two, and the decision shall be made by drawing lots. Each actuary selected shall be disinterested in the outcome of the commutation and shall be either a Fellow or an Associate of the Casualty Actuarial Society.

The Company agrees, in respect of its Policies or bonds falling within the scope of this Contract, that when it files with its insurance regulatory authority, or sets up on its books liabilities as required by law, it shall forward to the Reinsurer a statement showing the proportion of such liabilities applicable to the Reinsurer. The “Reinsurer’s Obligations” shall be defined as follows:

D. When funding by Trust Agreement, the Reinsurer shall ensure that the Trust Agreement complies with the provisions of the “Trust Agreement Requirements Clause” attached hereto. When funding by an LOC, the Reinsurer agrees to apply for and secure timely delivery to the Company of a clean, irrevocable and unconditional LOC issued by a bank and containing provisions acceptable to the insurance regulatory authorities having jurisdiction over the Company’s reserves in an amount equal to the Reinsurer’s Obligations. Such LOC shall be issued for a period of not less than one year, and shall be automatically extended for one year from its date of expiration or any future expiration date unless 30 days (or such other time period as may be required by insurance regulatory authorities), prior to any expiration date the issuing bank shall notify the Company by certified or registered mail that the issuing bank elects not to consider the LOC extended for any additional period.

E. The Reinsurer and the Company agree that any funding provided by the Reinsurer pursuant to the provisions of this Contract may be drawn upon at any time, notwithstanding any other provision of this Contract, and be utilized by the Company or any successor, by operation of law, of the Company including, without limitation, any liquidator, rehabilitator, receiver or conservator of the Company, for the following purposes, unless otherwise provided for in a separate Trust Agreement:

1. to reimburse the Company for the Reinsurer’s Obligations, the payment of which is due under the terms of this Contract and that has not been otherwise paid;

2. to make refund of any sum that is in excess of the actual amount required to pay the Reinsurer’s Obligations under this Contract (or in excess of 102% of the Reinsurer’s Obligations, if funding is provided by a Trust Agreement);

3. to fund an account with the Company for the Reinsurer’s Obligations. Such cash deposit shall be held in an interest bearing account separate from the Company’s other assets, and interest thereon not in excess of the prime rate shall accrue to the benefit of the Reinsurer. Any taxes payable on accrued interest shall be paid out of the assets in the account that are in excess of the Reinsurer’s Obligations (or in excess of 102% of the Reinsurer’s Obligations, if funding is provided by a Trust Agreement). If the assets are inadequate to pay taxes, any taxes due shall be paid or reimbursed by the Reinsurer;

4. to pay the Reinsurer’s share of any other amounts the Company claims are due under this Contract.

F. If the amount drawn by the Company is in excess of the actual amount required for E(1) or E(3), or in the case of E(4), the actual amount determined to be due, the Company shall promptly return to the Reinsurer the excess amount so drawn. All of the foregoing shall be applied without diminution because of insolvency on the part of the Company or the Reinsurer.

G. The issuing bank shall have no responsibility whatsoever in connection with the propriety of withdrawals made by the Company or the disposition of funds withdrawn, except to ensure

that withdrawals are made only upon the order of properly authorized representatives of the Company.

H. At annual intervals, or more frequently at the discretion of the Company, but never more frequently than monthly, the Company shall prepare a specific statement of the Reinsurer’s Obligations for the sole purpose of amending the LOC or other method of funding, in the following manner:

1. If the statement shows that the Reinsurer’s Obligations exceed the balance of the LOC as of the statement date, the Reinsurer shall, within 30 days after receipt of the statement, secure delivery to the Company of an amendment to the LOC increasing the amount of credit by the amount of such difference. Should another method of funding be used, the Reinsurer shall, within the time period outlined above, increase such funding by the amount of such difference.

2. If, however, the statement shows that the Reinsurer’s Obligations are less than the balance of the LOC (or that 102% of the Reinsurer’s Obligations are less than the trust account balance if funding is provided by a Trust Agreement), as of the statement date, the Company shall, within 30 days after receipt of written request from the Reinsurer, release such excess credit by agreeing to secure an amendment to the LOC reducing the amount of credit available by the amount of such excess credit. Should another method of funding be used, the Company shall, within the time period outlined above, decrease such funding by the amount of such excess.

I. Should the Company or the Reinsurer be in breach of its obligations under this Article, or any Trust Agreement entered into to collateralize the Reinsurer’s Obligations hereunder, notwithstanding anything to the contrary elsewhere in this Contract, including but not limited to the Arbitration Article, the Company or the Reinsurer may seek immediate relief in respect of said breach from any court sitting in Pinellas County, Florida having competent jurisdiction of the parties hereto or the state and federal courts having jurisdiction for disputes from Pinellas County, as determined by the Company, and the parties consent to jurisdiction of such court. The Company and the Reinsurer agree that in addition to obeying the order of such court, each will bear its own costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and court costs, incurred in seeking the relief sought from such breach. In the alternative, the Company or the Reinsurer may elect to demand arbitration of such dispute pursuant to the provisions of the Arbitration Article hereunder.

A. In consideration of the terms under which this Contract is issued, the Company undertakes not to claim any deduction of the premium hereon when making Canadian tax returns.

B. 1. The Reinsurer has agreed to allow, for the purpose of paying the Federal Excise Tax, the applicable percentage of the premium payable hereon (as imposed under the Internal Revenue Code) to the extent such premium is subject to Federal Excise Tax.

2. In the event of any return of such premium becoming due hereunder, the Reinsurer shall deduct the applicable percentage of such premium from the amount of the return, and the Company or its agent should take steps to recover the Tax from the U.S. Government.

The Reinsurer or its duly authorized representatives shall have the right to visit the offices of the Company to inspect, examine, audit, and verify any of the policy, accounting or claim files (“Records”) relating to the Policies reinsured under this Contract during regular business hours after giving five working days’ prior notice; provided, that the Company shall be permitted to exclude from such inspection, examination or audit information that is not primarily related to the Policies to the extent any such information related to the Policies cannot be segregated or separated, without material cost or effort, from information that the Company believes in good faith is not permitted to be disclosed or transferred to the Reinsurer or its affiliates pursuant to applicable law or that would otherwise reveal sensitive competitive information concerning the business of the Company and its affiliates (other than the Policies). This right shall be exercisable during the term of this Contract or after the expiration of this Contract.

3. the amount or amounts that it shall be proper for the Company to pay thereunder.

B. The Reinsurer shall be bound by the judgment of the Company as to the obligation(s) and liability(ies) of the Company under any Policy.

C.

It is agreed, however, that the liquidator, receiver, conservator or statutory successor of the Company shall give written notice to the Reinsurer of the pendency of a claim against the Company indicating the Policy or bond reinsured, which claim would involve a possible liability on the part of the Reinsurer within a reasonable time after such claim is filed in the conservation or liquidation proceeding or in the receivership, and that during the pendency of such claim, the Reinsurer may investigate such claim and interpose, at its own expense, in the proceeding where such claim is to be adjudicated any defense or defenses that it may deem available to the Company or its liquidator, receiver, conservator or statutory successor. The expense thus incurred by the Reinsurer shall be chargeable, subject to the approval of the court, against the Company as part of the expense of conservation or liquidation to the extent of a pro rata share of the benefit that may accrue to the Company solely as a result of the defense undertaken by the Reinsurer.

Notice requesting arbitration shall be in writing and sent certified or registered mail, return receipt requested.

B. One arbitrator shall be chosen by each party and the two arbitrators shall then choose an impartial third arbitrator who shall preside at the hearing.

The arbitrators shall be persons knowledgeable about insurance and reinsurance who have no personal or financial interest in the result of the arbitration. If a member of the panel dies, becomes disabled or is otherwise unwilling or unable to serve, a substitute shall be selected in the same manner as the departing member was chosen and the arbitration shall continue.

D. Within 30 days after all arbitrators have been appointed, the panel shall meet and determine timely periods for briefs, discovery procedures and schedules of hearings.

E. The panel shall be relieved of all judicial formality and shall not be bound by the strict rules of procedure and evidence. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Contract, the arbitrators may at their discretion, consider underwriting and placement information provided by the Company to the Reinsurer, as well as any correspondence exchanged by the parties that is related to this Contract. The arbitration shall take place in St Petersburg, Florida, or at such other place as the parties shall agree. The decision of any two arbitrators shall be in writing and shall be final and binding. The panel is empowered to grant interim relief as it may deem appropriate.

F.

G. Each party shall bear the expense of its own arbitrator and shall jointly and equally bear with the other party the cost of the third arbitrator. The remaining costs of the arbitration shall be allocated by the panel.

This Contract may not be modified or changed except by an amendment to this Contract in writing signed by both parties. However, this Article shall not be construed as limiting the admissibility of evidence regarding the formation, interpretation, purpose or intent of this Contract.
