Kemper Investors Life Insurance Company and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)


1.

Kemper Investors Life Insurance Company is incorporated under the insurance laws of the State of Illinois and is licensed in the District of Columbia and all states, except New York. Zurich Life Insurance Company of New York is a wholly-owned subsidiary that is licensed in the State of New York.  Kemper Investors Life Insurance Company and its subsidiaries (collectively, "KILICO" or "the Company"), are wholly-owned by Kemper Corporation ("Kemper"), a non-operating holding company. Kemper is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Zurich Holding Company of America (“ZHCA”), a holding company.  ZHCA is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Zurich Group Holding (“ZGH” or “Zurich”), a Swiss holding company. ZGH is wholly-owned by Zurich Financial Services (“Z FS”), a Swiss holding company.


2.

In the opinion of management, all necessary adjustments consisting of normal recurring accruals have been made for a fair statement of the results of KILICO for the periods included in these financial statements. The results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes in the 2002 Annual Report on Form 10-K.


The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.



3.

The Company, Federal Kemper Life Assurance Company ("FKLA"), Zurich Life Insurance Company of America ("ZLICA"), and Fidelity Life Association ("FLA"), operate under the trade name Zurich Life ("ZL").




The Company has two primary operating segments, life insurance and annuities, that offer different types of products and services.  These two operating segments reflect the way the Company manages its operations and makes business decisions.























In the following table, the Company uses the caption “net operating income” as an operating measure of segment performance. Net operating income is calculated by deducting net realized investment gains or losses, net of related income taxes, from net income. Net realized investment gains or losses are excluded from net operating income because they can, in part, be discretionary and are not indicative of operational trends.

On May 30, 2003 ZFS and Bank One Corporation announced plans for the Bank One organization to acquire a significant portion of the ZL companies. As the acquisition is structured, Bank One will acquire all of the ZL companies, except the Company and FLA, and will administer and reinsure certain lines of business currently underwritten by the Company.  Bank One will also acquire the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries, including Zurich Life Insurance Company of New York, and the management contract under which FKLA currently provides employee and management services to FLA, a mutual legal reserve company owned by its policyholders.  The transaction is scheduled to close in the third quarter of 2003, pending regulatory approval.  Subsequent to the close, the Company will continue to operate a s an on-going life insurance company.













MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


The following discussion is for the six-month period ended June 30, 2003. Events for the three-month period ended June 30, 2003 are discussed where appropriate.


Kemper Investors Life Insurance Company and subsidiaries (collectively, "KILICO", "the Company", "we", "our" or "us") recorded net income of
$23.7 million in the first six months of 2003, compared with a net loss of $6.6 million for the first six months of 2002.


The following table reflects the components of net income (loss):

The $21.9 million in goodwill impairment in 2002, resulted from the implementation of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142 (“SFAS 142”) Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, issued in July 2001.  SFAS 142 primarily addresses the accounting that must be applied to goodwill and intangible assets subsequent to their acquisition. Effective January 1, 2002, SFAS 142 required that goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets no longer be amortized, but be tested for impairment at the reporting unit level. The Company’s goodwill was tested for impairment at the life insurance and annuities operating segment level based on the guidance under SFAS 142. As a result of the testing performed, an impairment of $21.9 million was recorded in the annuities segment, retroactive to January 1, 2002, the effective date of SFAS 142.

In September 2002, the board of directors of our indirect, 100% shareholder, Zurich Financial Services Group (“the Group”), approved a plan designed to improve the profitability of the Group and its subsidiaries.  Under this plan, the Group considered a number of strategic options, the completion of which could have a significant impact on the recoverability of the carrying value of certain assets.  Among the assets affected by the approval of the plan was the goodwill associated with the acquisition of the Zurich Life companies.  As a result, the Company recorded the complete write-down of the remaining goodwill of $156.5 million in the third quarter of 2002.

Operating earnings before goodwill impairment and amortization of definite-lived intangible assets resulted in a gain of $20.9 million for the first six months of 2003, compared with $8.9 million in the first six months of 2002. This increase was primarily due to:



*

a decrease in claims incurred and other policyholder benefits, primarily due to a decrease in policyholder reserves in 2003 for variable annuity guaranteed benefits resulting from the recent improvement in the stock market,


*

an increase in other income,


*

a decrease in taxes, licenses and fees,


*

a decrease in commissions and operating expenses, net of the deferral of insurance acquisition costs, and


*

a decrease in the amortization of business acquired,


offset by


*

a decrease in spread revenue (net investment income less interest credited to policyholders),


*

a decrease in separate account fees and charges,


*

an increase in the amortization of deferred insurance acquisition costs, and


*

an increase in income tax expense on operations.

Sales of annuity products consist of total deposits received, which are not recorded as revenue within the consolidated statements of operations. For variable annuity deposits we receive administrative fee revenue and on variable life insurance contracts we collect cost of insurance charges. For fixed-rate annuity business we manage spread revenue, defined as investment income less interest credited to policyholders.


Variable annuity deposits, including deposits under the fixed account option, decreased $436.6 million in the first half of 2003, compared with the same period in 2002. The decrease is primarily due to lower sales of our DestinationsSM product. In the fourth quarter of 2001, we discontinued offering the guaranteed retirement income benefit (“GRIB”) option with the DestinationsSM product due to the continued decline in the stock market and, in the first quarter of 2003, we discontinued all new sales of DestinationsSM. We have, however, continued to receive additional deposits in existing contracts.  We expect this to continue to some extent.


The GRIB is an optional benefit to the DestinationsSM variable annuity. For an additional asset-based fee it allows for a proxy account value, called the GRIB Base, to be applied to the guaranteed annuity factors (settlement option purchase rates) in the contract. The GRIB Base prior to attained age 80 is the greatest of:


*

the contract value (account value)   

 

*

the greatest anniversary value before the exercise (annuitization) date, or   


*

purchase payments minus previous withdrawals, accumulated at 5 percent interest per year to the annuitization date.











Fixed annuity deposits increased $70.6 million in the first half of 2003, compared with the same period in 2002, primarily due to  strong sales of our Zurich Classic II fixed annuity product in the first quarter of 2003. In the first quarter of 2003, our wholly-owned subsidiary, Zurich Life Insurance Company of New York, began sales of the Zurich Classic II product in the State of New York.


BOLI deposits decreased $48.6 million in the first half of 2003, compared with the same period in 2002. Due to the nature of the BOLI product - high dollar volume per sale, low frequency of sales, the level of BOLI sales can fluctuate, sometimes significantly, between periods.  Continued maturation of the BOLI market and company ratings can also affect the level of BOLI sales.

Total assets under management increased $923.6 million from December 31, 2002, to June 30, 2003, primarily reflecting the recent improvement in the stock market as well as the volume of sales in the first half of 2003. Along with equity market fluctuations, total assets under management are also affected by interest rate fluctuations. The level of policyholder surrenders, withdrawals and death benefits also directly impacts the level of assets under management from year to year.  

Spread revenue decreased in the first six months of 2003, compared with the same period in 2002. Investment income decreased primarily due to the reinvestment of 2002 and 2003 sales proceeds, maturities and prepayments in lower yielding securities due to the lower interest rate environment. Also contributing to the decrease is the loss of investment income earned on the BOLI funds withheld account (“FWA”).  During the first quarter of 2002, we amended our BOLI reinsurance agreement with Zurich Insurance Company, Bermuda Branch (“ZICBB”). Under the amended agreement, the balance in the FWA was transferred to a trust account that acts as security for the reinsurance agreement. On January 25, 2002, approximately $222.5 million of invested assets were transferred to the trust account. The trust account is not reflected in our consolidated financial statements but is included in ZICBB’s financial statements.


Interest credited increased in the first six months of 2003, compared with the same period in 2002, mainly due to higher average  account balances for policies in force, somewhat offset by lower average interest crediting rates.

(2) There is a corresponding offset in taxes, licenses and fees.


Separate account fees on non-BOLI variable life and annuities decreased in the first six months of 2003, compared with the same period in 2002, primarily due to the prolonged decline in the stock market in 2002 and the first three months of 2003, as the fees are primarily asset-based. As the market continues to improve and separate account assets increase, the  separate account fees should increase over time.

Net BOLI cost of insurance charges and fees increased $1.2 million in the first six months of 2003, compared with 2002.  The increase is primarily  related to the transfer of the assets supporting the FWA to a trust.  Prior to the transfer, we ceded additional cost of insurance charges due to appreciation of the FWA. In addition, subsequent to the transfer, we received an increase in asset management fees in conjunction with the amended reinsurance agreement in 2002, as previously discussed.  

Other income increased $3.9 million in the first six months of 2003, compared with the same period in 2002. The increase was primarily due to the non-recurrence of separate account trading losses that occurred in the first half of 2002. The high volume of variable annuity sales and the subsequent investment of customer funds during periods of significant stock market volatility caused these losses in 2002.

Reflecting the current interest rate environment and other competitive market factors, we adjust our crediting rates on interest-sensitive products over time in order to manage spread revenue and policyholder surrender and withdrawal activity. Spread revenue can also improve over time by increasing investment income.

General account surrenders, withdrawals and death benefits decreased $29.2 million in the first six months of 2003, compared with the first six months of 2002, as policyholders opted for the relatively safer investment options offered by the general account.

Separate account surrenders, withdrawals and death benefits increased
$10.4 million in the first six months of 2003, compared with the first six months of 2002. Excluding a partial withdrawal on a BOLI contract of approximately $27.8 million, separate account surrenders, withdrawals and death benefits decreased $17.4 million in the first half of 2003, compared with the same period in 2002. The decrease occurred primarily in the second quarter of 2003, as the stock market improved.

Claims incurred and other policyholder benefits decreased $14.9 million for the first half of 2003, compared with the same period in 2002.  The decrease is primarily due to a decrease in policyholder reserves in 2003 for guaranteed minimum death benefits (“GMDB”) on certain of our variable annuity contracts.  The decrease in GMDB policyholder reserves is primarily due to a recent improvement in the stock market, somewhat offset by increasing variable annuity business in-force. We reserve for death benefit guarantees in our variable annuities. For policies that were deemed to have elected annuitization, GRIB reserves have been established to cover the present value of future benefits in excess of account value. Declines in the stock market would have the impact of increasing these GMDB and GRIB reserves. Conversely, a rally in the stock market w ould generally have the impact of decreasing these reserves.

Pursuant to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), no additional liabilities for future policy benefits related to guaranteed living benefits have been established for policies that have not been deemed to have elected annuitization.  However, the Statement of Position (“SOP”), Accounting And Reporting By Insurance Enterprises For Certain Nontraditional Long-Duration Contracts And For Separate Accounts (finalized in July of 2003), provides guidance for establishing additional reserves for guaranteed living benefits. Upon adoption, future policy benefits for GRIB in future periods could vary significantly from amounts recorded as of June 30, 2003.  We are currently evaluating the impact that this SOP will have on our financial statements.

Taxes, licenses and fees decreased in the first half of 2003, compared with the same period in 2002. The decrease occurred primarily in the second quarter of 2003 and was mainly due to the release of an over-accrual for prior years’ premium taxes payable as well as the decrease in BOLI premiums through the first half of 2003.  






Commissions and operating expenses, net of the deferral of insurance acquisition costs, decreased in the first six months of 2003, compared with the first six months of 2002. The decrease is primarily due to a decrease in operating expenses. The decrease in operating expenses was mainly attributable to exiting certain lines of business and a significant focus on operations and IT re-engineering and expense reductions.

The amortization of deferred insurance acquisition costs increased in the first half of 2003, compared with the same period in 2002.  The decrease in policyholder reserves for guaranteed minimum benefits, as previously discussed, caused current period gross profits to be higher than expected. The increase in current period gross profits accelerated the amortization of deferred insurance acquisition costs (“DAC”). This was partly offset by a decrease in the DAC amortization related to the improvement in the stock market. The improvement in the stock market led to appreciation of separate account assets, which increased asset-based separate account fees and future estimated gross profits (“EGPs”). The increase in future EGPs has the effect of deferring DAC amortization to future periods.

The improvement in the stock market and the related increase in future EGPs resulted in a decrease in the amortization of value of business acquired, as amortization is deferred into future periods.

Tax expense on operations increased in the first half of 2003, compared with the same period in 2002, primarily due to higher operating income.

Operations by Business Segment

As previously discussed in the footnotes, the Company, Federal Kemper Life Assurance Company ("FKLA"), Zurich Life Insurance Company of America ("ZLICA"), and Fidelity Life Association ("FLA"), operate under the trade name Zurich Life ("ZL").

We have two primary operating segments, life insurance and annuities, that offer different types of products and services.  These two operating segments reflect the way the Company manages its operations and makes business decisions.

In the following table, we use the caption “net operating income” as an operating measure of segment performance. Net operating income is calculated by deducting net realized investment gains or losses, net of related income taxes from net income. Net realized investment gains or losses are excluded from net operating income because they can, in part, be discretionary and  may not be  indicative of operational trends.

Total operating revenues for the life insurance segment decreased $2.7 million in the first six months of 2003, compared with the same period in 2002.  Total operating revenues for the annuities segment decreased $3.2 million in the first six months of 2003, compared with the same period in 2002.  The decrease in operating revenues for both segments was primarily due to a decrease in investment income.  

The decrease in investment income for both segments is mainly due to the reinvestment of 2002 and 2003 sales proceeds, maturities and prepayments in lower yielding securities due to the lower interest rate environment, as previously discussed.

Net operating income, before the cumulative effect of an accounting change, for the life insurance segment increased $3.5 million for the first half of 2003, compared with the same period in 2002. The increase is primarily attributable to lower claim experience and lower operating expenses in the first six months of 2003, compared with the same period in 2002, as previously discussed.

Net operating income, before the cumulative effect of an accounting change, for the annuities segment increased $8.5 million for the first six months of 2003, compared to the same period in 2002. The increase is primarily due to the decrease in policyholder reserves in 2003 for GMDB on certain of our variable annuity contracts, due to the recent improvement in the stock market.  This was somewhat offset by the increase in amortization of deferred insurance acquisition cost, which was caused mostly by the decrease in policyholder reserves, as previously discussed.

Premiums paid by and benefits paid to policyholders related to annuity and certain life insurance products are treated as investment contract deposits and payments, respectively, per GAAP. Premiums are treated as deposits (increases) to policyholders’ account balances and benefits are treated as payments (decreases) from policyholders’ account balances.

Due to combining several categories on our GAAP Consolidated Statements of Operations, two additional items are shown above in the reconciliation.

The increase (decrease) in reserves primarily represents estimated future guaranteed policyholder benefits. Interest on benefits and other is primarily interest that accrues on annuity benefits and death benefits before pending claims are settled.





Critical Accounting Policies

Our Management’s Discussion and Analysis is based upon our consolidated financial statements that have been prepared in conformity with GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that could affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as well as the disclosure of contingent assets or liabilities at the date of the financial statements. As a result, actual results reported as revenue and expenses could differ from the estimates reported in the financial statements. We evaluate our estimates periodically, including those related to investments, DAC, value of business acquired and future policy benefits.

We believe the following critical accounting policies affect management’s more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements.

Investments – All fixed maturity investments are reviewed at least quarterly  for impairment. We use a market value to book value test, along with a “watch list” prepared by our external asset managers. We use this information to analyze securities for possible write-downs. If an impairment is determined to be other-than-temporary, the issue is written down to its net realizable value during the current fiscal quarter. In addition, upon default or indication of potential default by an issuer of fixed maturity securities other than securitized financial assets, the issue(s) of such issuer would be placed on nonaccrual status and, since declines in fair value would no longer be considered temporary, would be analyzed for possible write-down. Thereafter, each issue on nonaccrual status is regularly reviewed, and additional write-downs may be taken in light of later developments.

For our securitized financial assets, we recognize an impairment loss if the fair value of the security is below book value and there was an adverse change in expected future cash flows since the most recent (prior) estimation date.


DAC – The level of operating expenses that can be deferred is a significant factor in our reported profitability in any given period. Also, DAC amortization is affected by changes in future estimated gross profits (“EGPs”) principally related to investment results, separate account fees, expected market rates of return, lapse rates and anticipated surrender charges. Changes in EGPs and the corresponding impacts on DAC amortization are reflected in earnings in the period such EGPs are reprojected.


Value of Business Acquired - The value of business acquired reflects the estimated fair value of our life insurance business in force as of January 4, 1996, and represents the portion of the cost to acquire the Company that is allocated to the value of the right to receive future cash flows from insurance contracts existing at the date of acquisition. Such value is the present value of the actuarially projected cash flows for the acquired policies.

The value of the business acquired is amortized over the estimated contract life of the business acquired in relation to the present value of EGPs using current assumptions and a discount rate equal to the liability or contract rate on the business acquired. As with DAC, amortization of the value of business acquired may be affected by changes in EGPs. The impact of any changes in EGPs will be reflected in earnings in the period such EGPs are reprojected.








Future Policy Benefits - Liabilities for future policy benefits related to annuities and interest-sensitive life contracts reflect net premiums received plus interest credited during the contract accumulation period less withdrawals and fees charged. For contracts that have annuitized, the liabilities are equal to the present value of future payments. A liability has been established for guaranteed death benefits in excess of account values (“GMDB”). Reserves for GRIB have been established to cover the present value of future benefits in excess of account value for policies that were deemed to have elected annuitization. Both GMDB and GRIB reserves are based on models that involve numerous estimates and subjective judgments, including expected market rates of return and mortality experience.
































INVESTMENTS


Our principal investment strategy is to maintain a balanced, well-diversified portfolio supporting the insurance contracts written. We make shifts in our investment portfolio depending on, among other factors:


*

our evaluation of risk and return in various markets,


*

the interest rate environment,


*

liability durations, and  


*

changes in market and business conditions.

Fixed maturity securities


We carry our fixed maturity securities investment portfolio, which is considered available for sale, at estimated fair value. The aggregate unrealized appreciation or depreciation is recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), net of any applicable income tax expense. The after-tax aggregate unrealized appreciation on fixed maturity securities at June 30, 2003 was $130.9 million. The aggregate after tax unrealized appreciation on fixed maturity securities at December 31, 2002 was $69.5 million. Fair values are sensitive to movements in interest rates and other economic developments and can be expected to fluctuate, at times significantly, from period to period.












At June 30, 2003, investment-grade fixed maturity securities, cash and short-term investments accounted for 87.1 percent of invested assets and cash, compared with 85.7 percent at December 31, 2002.


At June 30, 2003, approximately 17.8 percent of investment-grade fixed maturity securities were residential mortgage-backed securities, up from 16.2 percent at December 31, 2002.  Approximately 7.7 percent of investment-grade fixed maturity securities were commercial mortgage-backed securities at June 30, 2003 compared with 6.3 percent at December 31, 2002.  


Approximately 6.3 percent of the investment-grade fixed maturity securities at June 30, 2003 consisted of asset-backed securities, compared with 7.3 percent at December 31, 2002. The majority of investments in asset-backed securities were backed by home equity loans, automobile loans, manufactured housing loans and credit card receivables.


 

Real estate-related investments


The $181.7 million real estate portfolio, consisting of joint venture and third-party mortgage loans and other real estate-related investments, constituted 4.3 percent of cash and invested assets at June 30, 2003, compared with $177.7 million, or 4.6 percent, at December 31, 2002.

 

 

Real estate outlook


Loans to a master limited partnership (the "MLP") between subsidiaries of Kemper Corporation and subsidiaries of Lumbermens Mutual Casualty Company, a former affiliate, amounted to $107.6 million at June 30, 2003. The MLP's underlying investment primarily consists of a water development project located in California's Sacramento River Valley. While efforts continue on obtaining numerous approvals and permits, various local permits are/may be required in addition to the state and federal permits.  This venture also contains uncertainty due to the difficulty of completing water projects in California and current fiscal difficulties being experienced by the state.


Troubled real estate-related investments consisted of loans on nonaccrual status, before reserves and write-downs, totaling $10.6 million at both June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002. Loans on nonaccrual status, after reserves and write-downs, amounted to $5.0 million at both June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002.  The loans classified as nonaccrual consist of mortgage loans on various unzoned lots located in Hawaii.





















Net investment income


Pre-tax net investment income totaled $111.1 million in the first six months of 2003, compared with $115.9 million in the first six months of 2002. Investment income was adversely impacted in 2003 and 2002 by the declining interest rate environment.


Total foregone investment income before tax on nonaccrual real estate-related investments, nonperforming fixed maturity securities, and certain other invested assets was as follows:

Foregone investment income is primarily due to certain real estate-related  investments that have been placed on nonaccrual status, bonds that are in default and a leveraged lease covering two aircraft leased by United Airlines. Any increase in nonperforming securities and either worsening or stagnant real estate conditions, would increase the expected adverse effect on future investment income and realized investment results.


Interest rates


In the first six months of 2003, the Federal Open Market Committee met four times, reducing interest rates 25 basis points at its most recent meeting on June 25, 2003.  Interest rate fluctuations can cause significant fluctuations in both future investment income and future realized and unrealized investment gains and losses.



LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES


We carefully monitor cash and short-term investments to maintain adequate balances for timely payment of policyholder benefits, expenses, taxes and policyholders’ account balances. In addition, regulatory authorities establish minimum liquidity and capital standards. The major ongoing sources of liquidity are deposits for fixed annuities, premium income, investment income, separate account fees, other operating revenue and cash provided from maturing investments or investments sold from a large, publicly traded investment portfolio.


We also continuously monitor capital resources.  Our total adjusted capital and surplus (statutory accounting basis) is compared with required capital under the National Association of Insurance Commissioners risk-based capital (“RBC”) approach.  During the first half of 2003, our RBC ratio increased due to positive earnings on a statutory accounting basis and remains above the level that would require regulatory action.  One source of the increase in the capital ratio has been the decrease in reserves for guarantees on the DestinationsSM product.  The decrease in these reserves is driven by the recent improvement in the stock market. A rally in the stock market would generally have the impact of decreasing these reserves. Conversely, market declines will require establishment of additional reserves. We monitor capital resources very closely and m itigation strategies have been and will be put in place should sustained market declines recur.





Ratings


We receive a rating from Standard & Poor’s (“S&P”) that is not considered a “group” rating, so our rating is not shared with Zurich Financial Services (“ZFS”).  At June 30, 2003, our rating is “A+” and on CreditWatch with negative implications.


We share our A.M. Best rating with ZFS. Our financial strength rating at June 30, 2003 is “A” (Excellent) and is under review with negative implications.


We have a rating from Moody’s Investors Service (“Moody’s”) that is not considered a “group” rating.  Our Moody’s rating is “A3” at June 30, 2003 and is currently on CreditWatch for possible downgrade.


Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk


Our businesses are subject to market risks arising from its insurance and investment management activities. The primary market risk exposures result from interest rate fluctuations, equity price movements and changes in credit quality.


Changes in equity markets impact asset-based policy fees charged on variable annuity and life products. For variable annuity and life products with guaranteed minimum death or income benefits, sustained periods with declines in the value of underlying separate account investments would increase our net exposure to guaranteed benefits under those contracts (increasing claims, net of any reinsurance) at a time when fee income for these benefits is also reduced from prior period levels.


Changes in equity markets also may impact DAC amortization on variable annuity and life contracts. To the extent that actual market trends and reasonable expectations as to future performance lead to reductions in the investment return and/or other related estimates underlying the DAC amortization rates, DAC amortization could be accelerated. Volatile equity markets can impact the level of contractholder surrender activity, which, in turn, can also impact future profitability.


The effects of significant equity market fluctuations on our operating results can be complex and subject to a variety of estimates and assumptions, such as assumed rates of long-term equity market performance, making it difficult to reliably predict effects on operating earnings over a broad range of equity markets performance alternatives. Further, these effects may not always be proportional for market increases and market decreases.


Margins on annuities and life insurance can be affected by interest rate fluctuations. In a declining interest rate environment, credited rates can generally be adjusted more quickly than the related invested asset portfolio is affected by declining reinvestment rates, tending to result in higher net interest margins in the short term. However, under scenarios in which interest rates fall and remain at significantly lower levels, minimum guarantees on annuities and life insurance (generally 3.0% to 4.5%) could cause the spread between the yield on the portfolio and the interest rate credited to policyholders to deteriorate.


For both annuities and life insurance, a rapid and sustained rise in interest rates poses risks of deteriorating spreads and higher levels of surrenders. In this environment, there is pressure to increase credited rates to match competitors' new money rates. However, such changes in credited rates generally occur more quickly than the earned rates on invested assets reflect changes in market yields. The greater and faster the rise in interest rates, the more the earned rates will tend to lag behind market rates.





Interest rate fluctuations can cause significant fluctuations in both future investment income and future realized and unrealized investment gains and losses. A rising interest rate environment can increase net investment income as well as contribute to both realized and unrealized fixed maturity investment losses. A declining interest rate environment can decrease net investment income as well as contribute to both realized and unrealized fixed maturity investment gains.



CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES


In order to ensure that the information that we must disclose in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission is recorded, processed, summarized and reported on a timely basis, we have adopted disclosure controls and procedures.  Our Chief Executive Officer, Gale K. Caruso, and our Chief Financial Officer, Frederick L. Blackmon, have reviewed and evaluated our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report and have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are appropriate and that no changes are required at this time.


No significant changes in our internal control over financial reporting occurred during the fiscal period ended June 30, 2003, that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

(fffffff)

The Purchaser shall be liable for and pay, and agrees to indemnify and hold harmless, each Seller Indemnitee for (i) any Taxes imposed upon or assessed against the Subsidiaries, or the Parent or the Seller or an Affiliate of the Parent or the Seller with respect to any of the Subsidiaries, with respect to a Post-Closing Tax Period, including with respect to any Straddle Period, any Taxes imposed upon or assessed against any of the Subsidiaries, or the Parent, the Seller, or any Affiliate thereof with respect to any of the Subsidiaries, which are allocable pursuant to Section 6.3(c) to a Post-Closing Tax Period and (ii) any Loss of the Parent, the Seller, or any Affiliate thereof in connection with or arising by reason of any breach by the Purchaser of Section 6.3(d) or any representation or warranty contained in Section 4.10 hereof; provided, however, t hat the Purchaser shall have no obligation to indemnify any Seller Indemnitee for any Taxes resulting from a breach by the Parent or the Seller of any provision in Section 6.2 or breach of a representation or warranty in Section 3.31 and provided, further that Purchaser shall have no obligation to indemnify any Seller Indemnitee for any Loss in respect of Taxes resulting from a breach by the Parent, the Seller, or KILICO of a representation or warranty in Sections 3.17(c)(v) or 3.17(c)(vi) of this Agreement.  

(ggggggg)

Whenever it is necessary to determine the liability for Income Tax of any Subsidiary with respect to a Straddle Period, the portion of such Income Tax that is allocable to the Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be the amounts which would be payable if the taxable year ended or is treated as ending as of the close of the Closing Date, and the portion of such Income Tax that is allocable to the Post-Closing Tax Period shall be the amounts which would be payable if the taxable year began or is treated as beginning as of the start of the day following the Closing Date; provided, however, that exemptions, allowances or deductions that are calculated on an annual basis, such as the deduction for amortization, shall be apportioned between the Pre-Closing Tax Period and the Post-Closing Tax Period on a daily basis.

(hhhhhhh)

Without the prior written consent of the Parent and the Seller, the Purchaser shall not (i) file any amended Income Tax Return with respect to any Subsidiary relating to any Pre-Closing Tax Periods or file any claim for a refund of Income Taxes for any Subsidiary relating to a Pre-Closing Tax Period, and shall prevent each Subsidiary from filing such an amended Income Tax Return or claim for a refund of Income Taxes or (ii) otherwise make or cause to be made any election, where permitted by law, to carry back to a Pre-Closing Tax Period of any Subsidiary any net operating loss, net capital loss, or other similar item arising after the Closing Date and shall prevent each Subsidiary from making any such election.  If the Parent and the Seller consent pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 6.3(d) to any such amended Income Tax Return, claim for refund of In come Tax, or election to carry back a net operating loss, net capital loss, or similar item with respect to a Subsidiary, the Purchaser shall be liable for and pay, and agrees to indemnify and hold harmless, each Seller Indemnitee for any Losses (as defined in Section 9.2(f) of this Agreement) to the Seller Indemnitee arising from any such amended Income Tax Return, claim for refund of Income Tax, or election to carry back a net operating loss, net capital loss, or similar item.  If the Purchaser or any subsidiary files an amended Non-Income Tax Return with respect to any Subsidiary relating to a Pre-Closing Tax Period or files any claim for a refund of Non-Income Taxes for any Subsidiary relating to a Pre-Closing Tax Period, the Purchaser shall be liable for and pay, and agrees to indemnify and hold harmless, each Seller Indemnitee for any Losses (as defined in Section 9.2(f) of this Agreement) to the Seller Indemnitee arising from such amended Non-Income Tax Return or claim for refund of Non-Income Ta xes, including any Losses relating to deficiencies assessed with respect to Non-Income Tax of the Parent, the Seller, or a Subsidiary for any Pre-Closing Tax Period; provided, however, that the foregoing indemnity obligation shall not apply to any amended Tax Return in connection with the resolution of a claim that represented a breach of a representation or warranty in Section 3.7

(iiiiiii)

If the Parent or the Seller’s indemnification obligation under this Article VI arises in respect of an adjustment which makes allowable to the Purchaser, any of its Affiliates or, effective upon the Closing any of the Subsidiaries, any deduction, amortization, exclusion from income or other allowance (a “Tax Allowance”) which would not, but for such adjustment, be allowable, then within thirty (30) days after the filing of the applicable Tax Return for the tax period in which such Tax Allowance is realized, the Purchaser shall pay to the Parent or the Seller the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of Taxes that would have been payable by any of the Subsidiaries, the Purchaser or any Affiliate of the Purchaser in the absence of such Tax Allowance over (ii) the amount of Taxes actually paid.  For purposes of this Section 6.3(e), in the cas e of a carryover to a future Tax year or period of a loss or other item arising from a Tax Allowance, for each Tax year or period to which such loss or other item is carried over the Purchaser shall (x) pay to the Parent or the Seller within thirty (30) days after the filing of the applicable Tax Return in which such loss or other item is utilized the excess, if any of the amount of Taxes that would have been payable by any of the Subsidiaries, the Purchaser or any Affiliate of the Purchaser in the absence of such loss carryover over the amount of Taxes actually paid and (y) send to the Parent and the Seller within thirty (30) days after the date of the filing of the applicable Tax Return for each such Tax year or period, until the carryover has been fully utilized (or expires), a certification signed by the chief financial officer of the Purchaser setting forth, in reasonable detail, the facts concerning the Purchaser’s (or its Affiliate’s, including a Subsidiary’s) use of such carryover, and the extent to which such carryover has not been utilized.

(jjjjjjj)

If a Seller Indemnitee or Purchaser Indemnitee, as the case may be, has a claim under Article VI of this Agreement, in order to receive payment with respect to such claim the Seller Indemnitee or Purchaser Indemnitee, as applicable, must provide a written notice of such claim to the Purchaser or the Parent or the Seller, as applicable, prior to ninety (90) days after the expiration of the applicable Tax statute of limitation with respect to the relevant Tax year or period (including all periods of extension); provided, however, that with respect to a claim under Section 6.3(a)(iv) for any Loss in connection with or arising from any breach of any representations or warranties of the Parent, the Seller, or KILICO contained in Section 3.17(c)(v) or 3.17(c)(vi) of this Agreement, a Purchaser Indemnitee must provide written notice of such claim prior to the later of (i) ninety (90) days after the expiration of the applicable Tax statute of limitation with respect to the relevant Tax year or period (including all periods of extension) or (ii) six (6) months after the making of the underlying payment by the Purchaser Indemnitee from which such claim arises.  Such written notice must state the amount and nature of the claim under this Article VI in reasonable detail.  The Parent or the Seller or the Purchaser, as applicable, shall discharge any obligation to indemnify with respect to such claim not later than thirty (30) days after receipt by the Parent or the Seller or the Purchaser, as applicable, of such written notice.

(kkkkkkk)

To the extent any determination of Tax liability of any of the Subsidiaries, whether as the result of an audit or examination, a claim for refund, the filing of an amended return or otherwise, results in any refund of Tax attributable to any Pre-Closing Tax Period that is received by the Purchaser or the Subsidiaries, the Purchaser shall notify the Parent and the Seller of such refund and any refund of Income Tax or portion of such refund of Income Tax attributable to the Pre-Closing Tax Period, together with the interest paid on such amount or portion, shall belong to the Parent and any refund of Non-Income Tax shall belong to the Purchaser.  The Purchaser shall promptly pay to the Parent, upon receipt and as directed by the Parent, any such refund of Income Tax and the interest actually received thereon (including by credit against Income Tax liability of the Purchaser or the P urchaser’s Affiliate).  To the extent any determination of Income Tax liability of any of the Subsidiaries, whether as the result of an audit or examination, a claim for refund, the filing of an amended return or otherwise, results in any refund of Income Tax attributable to the Post-Closing Tax Period and is received by the Parent or the Seller, the Parent or the Seller shall notify the Purchaser of such refund and any such refund or portion of such refund attributable to the Post-Closing Period, together with the interest paid on such amount or portion, shall belong to the Purchaser.  The Parent or the Seller shall promptly pay to the Purchaser, upon receipt and as directed by the Purchaser, any such refund and the interest actually received thereon.

(lllllll)

The Parent and the Seller shall not be liable under this Section 6.3 with respect to any Tax resulting from a claim or demand the defense of which the Parent or the Seller was not offered the opportunity to assume as provided under Section 6.6 to the extent the  Parent or the Seller’s liability under this Section 6.3 is actually adversely affected as a result thereof.  

(mmmmmmm)

Any claim of any Seller Indemnitee (other than the Seller) or any Purchaser Indemnitee (other than the Purchaser) under this Section 6.3 may be made and enforced by the Parent, the Seller or the Purchaser, as the case may be, on behalf of the Seller Indemnitee or the Purchaser Indemnitee, subject to the other provisions of this Section 6.3.

(nnnnnnn)

Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, the indemnification provided for in this Article VI is the sole remedy for any breach of a representation, warranty, or agreement relating to Taxes; except with respect to the limitations imposed by Section 9.2(h) (which is specifically made applicable for purposes of this Article VI), Section 9.6, and the incorporation of certain provisions of Article IX by Section 6.6(d), the indemnification provisions provided in Article IX shall have no application.  

Termination of Tax Sharing Agreements.  As of the Closing Date, the Seller shall cause all Tax Sharing Arrangements involving any Subsidiary, on the one hand, and the Seller and/or any Affiliate of the Seller, on the other hand (other than this Agreement), to be extinguished and terminated with respect to any of the Subsidiaries, and after the Closing Date neither any of the Subsidiaries nor the Seller shall have any right or obligation under any such agreement or arrangement.

Adjustment to Purchase Price.  The Parent, the Seller, the Purchaser, the Subsidiaries and their Affiliates shall treat and report any and all payments paid to a Purchaser Indemnitee or Seller Indemnitee, as the case may be, under Section 2.2(c), 2.4 or 2.5 or Article VI or Article IX as an adjustment to the Purchase Price for all Tax purposes.  

Contest Rights.

(ooooooo)

The Purchaser will promptly notify the Parent and the Seller of the assertion or commencement of any Tax Proceeding (as defined below) which could be deemed to be within the ambit of this Article VI (the Purchaser specifying with reasonable particularity the basis thereof) and will give the Parent and the Seller such information with respect thereto as the Parent and the Seller may reasonably request.  The Parent or the Seller may, at the Parent or the Seller’s sole option and at its own expense, control the conduct of such Tax Proceeding relating to Taxes for which the Parent or the Seller may be liable (including all aspects of the strategy, defense and settlement of such Tax Proceeding), provided, however, that (a) the Parent or the Seller shall consult with the Purchaser upon the Purchaser’s reasonable request for such consultation fr om time to time with respect to such Tax Proceeding, (b) the Purchaser may at its option and at its own expense participate, through representatives and counsel of its own choosing, in the conduct of any Tax Proceeding for which the Tax in controversy relates to a Post-Closing Tax Period, and (c) the Parent or the Seller shall not, without the Purchaser’s consent, which consent is not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, agree to any settlement with respect to any Tax Proceeding if such settlement could reasonably be expected to adversely affect the material Tax liability of the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates (including the Subsidiaries) for Post-Closing Tax Periods, provided further, that in the case of any Tax Proceeding arising from a breach of any representation or warranty in Sections 3.17(c)(v) or 3.17(c)(vi) of this Agreement, the standard for consent by the Purchaser shall be that the Parent or the Seller shall not, without the Purchaser’s consent, which consent shall not be unreason ably withheld or delayed, agree to any settlement with respect to such Tax Proceeding.  The Purchaser agrees to fully cooperate with the Parent and the Seller and to cause the Subsidiaries to fully cooperate with the Parent and the Seller in connection with any Tax Proceeding.  The Parent or the Seller shall notify the Purchaser if the Parent or the Seller decides at its sole option not to participate in the defense of any such Tax Proceeding relating to Taxes for which the Parent or the Seller may be liable and the Purchaser thereupon shall be permitted (at its own expense), but not required, to defend such Tax Proceeding.  In the event the Purchaser elects to defend such Tax Proceeding, the Parent and the Seller agree to fully cooperate with the Purchaser, provided, however, that (x) the Purchaser shall consult with the Parent and the Seller upon the Parent or the Seller’s reasonable request for such consultation from time to time with respect to such Tax Proceeding and (y ) no settlement shall be made without the prior written consent of the Parent and the Seller, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed.  A “Tax Proceeding” shall include any claim, examination, or other proposed change or adjustment by any Taxing Authority, any suit, action, proceeding, as well as any notice of assessment or any notice or demand for payment, in respect of which indemnity may be sought from, or for which a refund may be available to, the Parent or the Seller, under Article VI or otherwise.  The provisions of this Section 6.6(a) shall not apply to matters specifically governed by Sections 6.6(b), 6.6(c), 6.6(d), 6.6(e) and 6.6(f).

(ppppppp)

If, after the Closing Date, the Purchaser reasonably determines that: (i) particular Warranted Policies issued by the Subsidiaries, KILICO, or FLA on or before the Closing Date do not comply with Sections 72, 101(f), 817, 817A, 7702 or 7702A of the Code, (ii) it is appropriate to approach the IRS in an effort to obtain a ruling, a closing agreement or other relief that would bring such Warranted Policies into compliance with the aforementioned Sections of the Code (a “Cure”), and (iii) the Purchaser is entitled to assert a claim against the Parent, the Seller or KILICO as a result of such failure to comply, or will be entitled to assert such a claim if a Cure is obtained in the manner contemplated by this Section 6.6(b), then the Purchaser shall promptly provide notice of such determination to the Parent and the Seller, identifying the particular War ranted Policies in question (the “Identified Warranted Policies”) and the reason or reasons for the failure of the Warranted Policies to comply with the foregoing Sections of the Code.  Following receipt by the Parent or the Seller of such notice, the Parent, the Seller and the Purchaser shall consult in good faith as to the basis for the Purchaser’s determination and the appropriate steps to be taken to address any such failure to comply.  As promptly as possible but in any event no later than thirty (30) days following receipt of such notice from the Purchaser, the Parent and the Seller shall notify the Purchaser as to whether the Parent or the Seller will approach the IRS for the purpose of obtaining a Cure with respect to the Identified Warranted Policies.  Approaching the IRS to obtain a Cure pursuant to this Section 6.6(b)(1) does not constitute a waiver by the Parent or the Seller of their rights to contest a claim of a breach of the representations or warranties u nder Section 3.17(c)(v) or Section 3.17(c)(vi) of this Agreement or a waiver of their rights to claim the absence of any Loss resulting therefrom with respect to Identified Warranted Policies.

(1)

If the Parent or the Seller disagrees with the Purchaser’s determination that the Identified Warranted Policies do not comply with Sections 72, 101(f), 817, 817A, 7702 or 7702A of the Code, the Parent or the Seller shall so notify the Purchaser in writing within thirty (30) days of receipt of the Purchaser’s notice under Section 6.6(b)(1).  Such dispute shall be settled by a Warranted Policy Arbitrator (defined below in Section 6.6(b)(8)).  The Warranted Policy Arbitrator shall determine whether such Identified Warranted Policies comply with Sections 72, 101(f), 817, 817A, 7702 or 7702A of the Code and if there is non-compliance, the reason or reasons for such failure to comply with the foregoing Sections of the Code.  The parties shall be bound by the determination of the Warranted Policy Arbitrator for purposes of this Agreement, except tha t the determination shall not be binding in any case in which (i) the IRS determines that a Warranted Policy does not comply with such Sections of the Code and neither the Purchaser, the Parent, the Seller, nor any of their Affiliates initiated the IRS’ examination of such Warranted Policy or (ii) the failure of a Warranted Policy to comply with the foregoing Sections of the Code becomes known to the IRS in the course of seeking to obtain a Cure pursuant to Section 6.6(b) in respect of one or more other failures to comply that were upheld or not considered by the Warranted Policy Arbitrator.  If the Warranted Policy Arbitrator determines that the Identified Warranted Policies are not in compliance with Sections 72, 101(f), 817, 817A, 7702 or 7702A of the Code, the Parent and the Seller shall provide the Purchaser as soon as practical but no later than ten (10) days following the date of such determination written notice of whether the Parent or the Seller will approach the IRS for purposes of obtai ning a Cure with respect to the Identified Warranted Policies.  Approaching the IRS to obtain a Cure pursuant to this Section 6.6(b)(2) does not constitute a waiver by the Parent or the Seller of their rights to contest a claim of a breach of the representations or warranties under Section 3.17(c)(v) or Section 3.17(c)(vi) of this Agreement or a waiver of their rights to claim the absence of any Loss resulting therefrom with respect to Identified Warranted Policies.

(2)

If the Parent or the Seller has notified the Purchaser pursuant to Section 6.6(b)(1) or Section 6.6(b)(2) that the Parent or the Seller intends to approach the IRS to attempt to obtain a Cure with respect to the Identified Warranted Policies, the Parent or the Seller shall do so as soon as reasonably practicable.  In such a case, the Parent and the Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts in good faith to obtain a Cure from the IRS with respect to the Identified Warranted Policies.  The Parent and the Seller, at their own expense, shall have the right to control the conduct of the proceedings before the IRS seeking a Cure for the Identified Warranted Policies (including all aspects of the strategy and the terms of the Cure); provided that the Purchaser may at its option and at its own expense participate in the conduct of the proceedings through rep resentatives and counsel of its own choosing.  The Purchaser will reasonably cooperate with the Parent and the Seller, and will cause the Subsidiaries to reasonably cooperate with the Parent and the Seller in connection with such proceedings.  The Parent and the Seller shall consult with the Purchaser upon the Purchaser’s reasonable request for such consultation from time to time with respect to such proceedings, and the Purchaser shall have the right to monitor such proceedings (including the receipt, reasonably in advance, of all submissions made to the IRS, and the right to provide comments thereon which the Parent and the Seller shall consider in good faith); provided, however, that such participation, including the costs and expenses of the Purchaser’s legal representatives, shall be at the Purchaser’s sole cost and expense.  Neither the Parent nor the Seller shall, without the Purchaser’s prior written consent, which consent is not to be unreasonably withheld or delay ed, agree to any Cure or other agreement or settlement with the IRS with respect to Identified Warranted Policies.

(3)

(i)  If the Parent and the Seller notify the Purchaser pursuant to either Section 6.6(b)(1) or Section 6.6(b)(2) that the Parent and the Seller decline to approach the IRS to attempt to obtain a Cure with respect to the Identified Warranted Policies, the Purchaser may at its discretion do so.  In such a case, the Purchaser shall have the right to control the conduct of the proceedings before the IRS seeking a Cure for the Identified Warranted Policies (including all aspects of the strategy and settlement of such proceedings); provided that the Parent and the Seller may at their option and at their own expense participate in the conduct of the proceedings through representatives and counsel of their own choosing.  The Parent and the Seller will reasonably cooperate with the Purchaser and the Subsidiaries in connection with such proceedings.  The Pu rchaser shall consult with the Parent and the Seller upon the Parent’s or the Seller’s reasonable request for such consultation from time to time with respect to such proceedings, and the Parent and the Seller shall have the right to monitor such proceedings (including the receipt, reasonably in advance, of all submissions made to the IRS, and the right to provide comments thereon which the Purchaser shall consider in good faith).  The Purchaser’s right to indemnification under this Agreement shall not be limited by the fact that it approaches the IRS pursuant to this Section 6.6(b)(4), provided that the Purchaser follows the procedures set forth in this Section 6.6(b)(4) before doing so.  The Purchaser shall not, without the Parent’s and the Seller’s prior written consent, which consent is not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, agree to any Cure or other agreement or settlement with the IRS with respect to Identified Warranted Policies.  

(4)

If the Parent or the Seller has elected to approach the IRS to attempt to obtain a Cure with respect to Identified Warranted Policies but the Purchaser reasonably determines in good faith that the Parent or the Seller, as the case may be, is not proceeding in good faith in a commercially reasonably manner to obtain such a Cure, the Purchaser may, at its discretion, notify the Parent or the Seller, as the case may be, in writing, of the Purchaser’s determination.  Such notification shall set forth in reasonable detail:  (i) the basis for the Purchaser’s determination; and (ii) the changes to the Parent or the Seller’s conduct, strategy or submissions, or other relevant adjustments, that the Purchaser in good faith reasonably believes must be made by the Parent or the Seller to cure the Purchaser’s claim that the Parent or the Seller, as t he case may be, is not acting in good faith in a commercially reasonably manner to obtain a Cure from the IRS with respect to the Identified Warranted Policies.  For a period of thirty (30) days from the date that the Parent or the Seller, as the case may be, receives such notification, the Purchaser shall in good faith provide the Parent or the Seller an opportunity to cure such claim by the Purchaser.  If, after the end of such period, the Purchaser reasonably determines that the Parent or the Seller, as the case may be, has not reasonably responded to cure the items set forth in the Purchaser’s notification and notifies the Parent and the Seller in writing of such determination (such notification setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for such determination by Purchaser), the Purchaser may approach the IRS to attempt to obtain a Cure for the Identified Warranted Policies in question.  If the Purchaser approaches the IRS in this manner, the provisions of Section 6.6(b)(4) shall th ereafter apply to the Purchaser, the Parent and the Seller with respect to the proceedings before the IRS in which the Purchaser attempts to obtain such a Cure.  The Purchaser’s right to indemnification under this Agreement shall not be limited by the fact that it approaches the IRS pursuant to this Section 6.6(b)(5), provided that the Purchaser follows the procedures set forth in this Section 6.6(b)(5) before doing so.

(5)

If the Parent or the Seller refuses or fails, within a reasonable period of time, to consent to a proposed Cure under Section 6.6(b)(4) or Section 6.6(b)(5) of this Agreement, the Purchaser shall have the right to request that the Warranted Policy Arbitrator (as defined in Section 6.6(b)(8) below) resolve such dispute by determining (x) the terms of a reasonable Cure, of the Identified Warranted Policies; and (y) the extent to which the costs of the Cure obtained by Purchaser should under Section 6.3 be apportioned to the Parent and the Seller by reason of their breach of Section 3.17(c)(v) or Section 3.17(c)(vi).  In rendering its determination, the Warranted Policy Arbitrator shall take into account: (a) the extent to which a reasonable third party business person issuing similar non-complying policies or contracts would have entered into a Cure on similar ter ms and (b) whether the Purchaser acted reasonably and in good faith with respect to the requirements set forth in Sections 6.6(b)(4), 6.6(b)(5) or 6.6(b)(7), as applicable.  The parties shall be bound by the conclusions of the Warranted Policy Arbitrator.

(6)

If the Purchaser deems it impractical to obtain the determination of the Warranted Policy Arbitrator in sufficient time to permit it to obtain a Cure from the IRS on terms and conditions that the Purchaser regards as the most favorable that can be achieved in the circumstances, then the Purchaser shall have the right to agree to the Cure on such terms.  In that event, the amount to which the Purchaser shall be entitled to recover from the Parent and the Seller as a result thereof shall be determined under the provisions of Section 6.6(b)(6) above.

(7)

The “Warranted Policy Arbitrator” shall consist of three representatives knowledgeable in U.S. taxation of life insurance companies and products, with one representative chosen by the Purchaser, one representative chosen by the Parent and the Seller, and one representative agreed to by the foregoing representatives.  The fees and disbursements of the Warranted Policy Arbitrator shall be shared 50% by the Parent and 50% by the Purchaser; provided, however, that to the extent the Warranted Policy Arbitrator determines that the party that does not prevail with respect to such dispute acted unreasonably, the Warranted Policy Arbitrator shall have the discretion to assign to such party (a) all or a more than 50% portion of fees and disbursements of the Warranted Policy Arbitrator and (b) any costs directly incurred by the prevailing party with respec t to the settlement by the Warranted Policy Arbitrator, including legal fees.

(8)

Any proceeding by a Warranted Policy Arbitrator under Section 6.6( b) shall be administered by the American Arbitration Association in accordance with its domestic commercial dispute resolution rules; provided that the scope of authority of the Warranted Policy Arbitrator shall be limited to the determinations set forth in Section 6.6(b).  In the event that the Purchaser or the Parent and the Seller fail to choose an arbitrator or the arbitrators chosen by the Purchaser and the Parent and the Seller fail to agree on the third arbitrator, the American Arbitration Association shall select such arbitrator, who shall serve as chairman of the arbitration tribunal.  The place of arbitration shall be Chicago, Illinois.  Any determination by the Warranted Policy Arbitrator pursuant to Section 6.6(b)(2) or Section 6.6(b)(6) shall be in writing.  Any determ ination by the Warranted Policy Arbitrator under Section 6.6(b)(6) shall be Final and Binding on the parties.  In any arbitration proceeding pursuant to this Section 6.6(b), the preliminary hearing, if any, shall be held within sixty (60) days of the Parent, the Seller or the Purchaser’s request for arbitration, the hearing shall be held within ninety (90) days of such request for arbitration, and the decision shall be issued within thirty (30) days following the hearing.

(9)

The Parent, the Seller and the Purchaser will fully cooperate with one another in connection with their respective efforts under Section 6.6(b) to obtain a Cure from the IRS with respect to the Identified Warranted Policies.

(10)

This Section 6.6(b)(11) applies in any case in which both (a) the IRS determines that a Warranted Policy does not comply with Sections 72, 101(f), 817, 817A, 7702 or 7702A of the Code, and (b) neither the Parent, the Seller, the Purchaser nor any of their Affiliates initiated the IRS’ examination of such Warranted Policy.  The Purchaser shall notify the Parent and the Seller of any such Warranted Policy promptly after being advised by the IRS of its determination.  If the Purchaser also notifies the Parent and the Seller that it has determined it is appropriate to seek a Cure with respect to such a Warranted Policy in accordance with Section 6.6(b), such Warranted Policy shall be treated as an Identified Warranted Policy subject to the provisions of this Section 6.6(b), except that: (x) appropriate adjustments shall be made for the fact that the IRS is already aware that the Warranted Policy may not comply with Sections 72, 101(f), 817, 817A, 7702 or 7702A of the Code; and (y) the arbitration procedure in Section 6.6(b)(2) shall not apply.  

(qqqqqqq)

(aaaaaaaa)

The Indemnifying Party’s obligation to indemnify the Indemnified Party (as such terms are defined below) pursuant to this Article IX shall survive indefinitely; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party’s obligation with respect to claims made pursuant to Sections 9.2(a)(i), 9.2(b)(i) and 9.2(c)(i) shall be limited to Losses as to which the Indemnified Party has given the Indemnifying Party written notice prior to twenty-four months following the Closing; provided, further, claims based on Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.20, 3.22, 3.28, 4.1, 4.2 and 4.9 shall survive indefinitely.

(cccccccc)

Upon making any indemnification payment, the Indemnifying Party will, to the extent of such payment, be subrogated to all rights of the Indemnified Party against any third party in respect of the Loss to which the payment relates; provided, however, that until the Indemnified Party recovers full payment of its Loss, any and all claims of the Indemnifying Party against any such third party on account of said payment are hereby made expressly subordinated and subjected in right of payment to the Indemnified Party’s rights against such third party.  Without limiting the generality of any other provision hereof, each such Indemnified Party and Indemnifying Party will duly execute upon request all instruments reasonably necessary to evidence and perfect the above-described subrogation and subordination rights.

(dddddddd)

Neither the Seller nor the Purchaser, shall have any right to set-off any Losses against any payments to be made by such party or parties pursuant to this Agreement or any other agreement between the parties.

Claims Notice.  In the event that either a Purchaser Indemnitee or a Seller Indemnitee wishes to assert a claim for indemnification hereunder, such party seeking indemnification (the “Indemnified Party”) shall deliver written notice (a “Claims Notice”) to the other party (the “Indemnifying Party”) no later than thirty (30) days after such claim becomes known to the Indemnified Party, specifying the facts constituting the basis for, and the amount (if known) of the claim asserted.  Failure to deliver a Claims Notice with respect to a claim in a timely manner as specified in the preceding sentence shall not be deemed a waiver of the Indemnified Party’s right to indemnification hereunder for Losses in connection with such claim, but the amount of reimbursement to which the Indem nified Party is entitled shall be reduced by the amount, if any, by which the Indemnified Party’s Losses would have been less had such Claims Notice been timely delivered.

Right to Contest Claims of Third Parties.  

(eeeeeeee)

If an Indemnified Party asserts, or may in the future seek to assert, a claim for indemnification hereunder because of a claim or demand made, or an action, proceeding or investigation instituted, by any Person not a party to this Agreement (a “Third Party Claimant”) that may result in a Loss with respect to which the Indemnified Party would be entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Article IX (an “Asserted Liability”), the Indemnified Party shall deliver to the Indemnifying Party a Claims Notice with respect thereto, which Claims Notice shall be delivered as promptly as practicable and in any event no later than twenty (20) days after such Asserted Liability is actually known to the Indemnified Party.  Failure to deliver a Claims Notice with respect to a claim in a timely manner as specified in the preceding sentence shal l not be deemed a waiver of the Indemnified Party’s right to indemnification hereunder for Losses in connection with such claim, provided, that the amount of reimbursement to which the Indemnified Party is entitled shall be reduced by the amount, if any, by which the Indemnified Party’s Losses would have been less had such Claims Notice been timely delivered.  

(ffffffff)

The Indemnifying Party shall have the right, upon written notice to the Indemnified Party, to investigate, contest, defend or settle any Asserted Liability that may result in a Loss with respect to which the Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Article IX; provided that the Indemnified Party may, at its option and at its own expense, participate in the investigation, contesting, defense or settlement of any such Asserted Liability through representatives and counsel of its own choosing; and, provided further that the Indemnifying Party shall not settle any Asserted Liability unless (i) such settlement is on exclusively monetary terms or (ii) the Indemnified Party shall have consented to the terms of such settlement, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld. If reasonably requested by the Indemnifying Part y, the Indemnified Party will, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party, cooperate with the Indemnifying Party and its counsel in contesting any Asserted Liability or, if appropriate and related to the Asserted Liability in question, in making any counterclaim against the Third Party Claimant, or any cross-complaint against any Person (other than the Indemnified Party or its Affiliates).  Unless and until the Indemnifying Party elects to defend the Asserted Liability, the Indemnified Party shall have the right, at its option and at the Indemnifying Party’s expense, to do so in such manner as it deems appropriate; provided, however, that the Indemnified Party shall not settle, compromise or pay any Asserted Liability for which it seeks indemnification hereunder without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which shall not be unreasonably withheld).

(gggggggg)

The Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in (but not to control) the defense of any Asserted Liability which it has not elected to defend with its own counsel and at its own expense.

(hhhhhhhh)

The Purchaser and the Seller shall make mutually available to each other all relevant information in their possession relating to any Asserted Liability (except to the extent that such action would result in a loss of attorney-client privilege) and shall cooperate with each other in the defense thereof.

Indemnification Payments.  Any payment hereunder shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account or accounts as the Indemnified Party shall designate to the Indemnifying Party in writing.

Exclusivity.  Following the Closing, except with respect to any fraud, intentional misrepresentation or any injunctive or provisional relief, the indemnities provided for in Section 9.2 and Article VI hereof shall be the exclusive remedies of the parties hereto and their respective officers, directors, employees, Affiliates, agents, representatives, successors and assigns for any breach of or inaccuracy in any representation or warranty or any breach, nonfulfillment or default in the performance of any of the covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement (but not any such covenants or agreements to the extent they are by their terms to be performed after the Closing Date), and the parties shall not be entitled to a rescission of this Agreement or to any further indemnification rights or claims of any nature whatsoever in respect thereof , all of which the parties hereto hereby waive.  Nothing set forth in this Article IX shall be deemed to prohibit or limit any party’s right at any time on or after the Closing Date, to seek injunctive or equitable relief for the failure of any other party to perform any covenant or agreement contained herein or to seek any other relief based upon fraud or intentional misrepresentation.

the Reinsurer fails to maintain a ratio of (i) Total Adjusted Capital (as defined in the Risk-Based Capital (RBC) Model Act or in the rules and procedures prescribed by the NAIC with respect thereto, in each case as in effect as of December 31 of the year immediately preceding) to (ii) the Company Action Level RBC (as defined in the Risk-Based Capital (RBC) Model Act or in the rules and procedures prescribed by the NAIC with respect thereto, in each case as in effect as of December 31 of the year immediately preceding) of at least 185 percent; or

(3)

unless already cured pursuant to Section 13.13 of this Agreement, (A) the Reinsurer ceases to be licensed as a life insurer or ceases to qualify as an accredited reinsurer in a particular jurisdiction under circumstances that would cause the Company to be denied credit for reinsurance ceded hereunder on the financial statements filed by the Company in said jurisdiction, or (B) the Company is denied credit for reinsurance ceded hereunder on the financial statements filed by the Company in any jurisdiction; or

(4)

a petition for insolvency, rehabilitation, conservation, supervision, liquidation or similar proceeding is filed by or against the Reinsurer or its statutory representative in any jurisdiction.

Upon occurrence of any Event of Default, if the Security Trust Account established pursuant to Section 9.4(a)(i) has terminated pursuant to Section 9.4(a)(iv), Reinsurer shall execute a new Security Trust Agreement and deposit into an account with the Trustee, naming the Company as the sole beneficiary thereof, assets having a Market Value in an amount no less than the Required Balance at that time, for the purpose of securing the Reinsured Liabilities other than the Separate Account Liabilities under the Policies and Post Closing Policies.  The Security Trust Agreement shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit B hereto, except that Section 5(a) of the Security Trust Agreement attached as Exhibit B shall not be a part of a Security Trust Agreement executed pursuant to this provision.

(uuuuuuuuuuu)

Notice to The Company.  The Reinsurer shall provide the Company with:

(1)

written notice of any downgrade in the Reinsurer’s A. M. Best Company rating or its Standard & Poor’s Corporation insurer financial strength rating or its Moody’s Investors Services, Inc. claims-paying ability rating within three (3) Business Days after the Reinsurer’s receipt of notice of such adjustment;

(2)

a written report of the calculation of the Reinsurer’s Total Adjusted Capital and Authorized Control Level RBC (based on the Risk-Based Capital (RBC) Model Act and/or the rules and procedures in effect as of the date of the report) as of the end of each calendar quarter within forty-five (45) days after the end of such quarter;

(3)

written notice of the occurrence of any Event of Default or Recapture Event within two (2) Business Days after Reinsurer has knowledge of its occurrence; and

(4)

not less than annually, a written report, in form reasonably satisfactory to the Company, certifying that no Event of Default or Recapture Event has occurred during the period covered by such report or is continuing as of the last day of such period, together with the appropriate calculations and back up reasonably necessary to substantiate the basis of the Reinsurer’s certification.  The Company may, at its own expense, review the Reinsurer’s books and records to confirm the risk based capital calculations provided by the Reinsurer pursuant to Section 9.4(c)(ii) if the Company provides the Reinsurer with written notice specifying a reasonable basis to question such calculations.  In addition, Reinsurer shall (A) cooperate fully with the Company and promptly respond to the Company’s reasonable inquiries from time to time concerning the Reinsu rer’s financial condition, operating results and any events, occurrences or other matters which arise on and after the Closing Date and which reasonably relate to the Policies or Post-Closing Policies or Reinsurer’s ability to perform and discharge its obligations under this Agreement and (B) provide to the Company such financial statements, reports, internal control letters and reports prepared by auditors and other third parties, SAS-70 reports and other documents of the Reinsurer as the Company may reasonably request from time to time.

(vvvvvvvvvvv)

Resort to Collateral.  Notwithstanding the remedies contemplated by this Section 9.4, the other Transaction Agreements and the Purchase Agreement, the Company may, in its sole discretion, require direct payment by the Reinsurer of any sum in default under this Agreement in lieu of exercising the remedies in this Section 9.4, and it shall be no defense to any such claim that the Company might have had recourse to the Security Trust Account.

(wwwwwwwwwww)

Certain Remedies.  The Company and Reinsurer acknowledge that any damage caused to the Company by reason of the breach by the Reinsurer or any of its successors in interest of this Section 9.4 could not be adequately compensated for in monetary damages alone; therefore, each party agrees that, in addition to any other remedies at law or otherwise, the Company shall be entitled to specific performance of this Section 9.4 or an injunction to be issued by a court of competent jurisdiction restraining and enjoining any violation of this Section 9.4, in addition to such other equitable or legal remedies as such court may determine.  The Company and Reinsurer hereby release, waive and discharge any and all claims and causes of action asserting in any way that: (a) any Security Trust Account is not valid, binding or enforceable; and (b) any remedy of the Co mpany including, without limitation, the Company’s Security Trust Account remedy hereunder is not valid, binding or enforceable.  The Company and the Reinsurer are forever estopped and barred from making any such assertion in any context or forum whatsoever.

Recapture Rights.

(xxxxxxxxxxx)

Recapture Events.  From and after the Closing Date, and whether or not an Event of Default has occurred, any of the following occurrences shall constitute an event that entitles the Company to exercise the recapture remedy set forth in this Section 9.5 (individually or collectively, as the context indicates, a “Recapture Event”):

(1)

Reinsurer ceases to maintain any of (A) an A.M. Best Company rating of at least B+, (B) a Standard & Poor’s Corporation insurer financial strength rating of at least BB+, and (C) a Moody’s Investors Services, Inc. claims-paying ability rating of at least Ba1; or

(2)

Reinsurer fails to maintain a ratio of (i) Total Adjusted Capital (as defined in the Risk-Based Capital (RBC) Model Act or in the rules and procedures prescribed by the NAIC with respect thereto, in each case as in effect as of December 31 of the year immediately preceding) to (ii) the Company Action Level RBC (as defined in the Risk-Based Capital (RBC) Model Act or in the rules and procedures prescribed by the NAIC with respect thereto, in each case as in effect as of December 31 of the year immediately preceding) of at least 160 percent; or

(3)

a petition for insolvency, rehabilitation, conservation, supervision, liquidation or similar proceeding is filed by or against the Reinsurer or its statutory representative in any jurisdiction; or

(4)

within thirty (30) calendar days of the termination of the Administrative Services in accordance with Section 5.20 of this Agreement, (A) Reinsurer does not take all steps necessary to arrange for a third-party administrator reasonably acceptable to the Company, to provide all administrative services to be provided pursuant to the terminated Administrative Services at the cost of Reinsurer (provided that the transfer of the Administrative Services to such third-party administrator does not need to occur during such thirty (30) day period so long as such transfer proceeds in an orderly and timely manner after such period) or (B) such third-party administrator fails to enter into an administrative service agreement with the Company, reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Company; or

(5)

a judgment or order is entered by a court of competent jurisdiction declaring the invalidity of the Security Trust Account or finding that the assets held in a Security Trust Account are general assets of Reinsurer or otherwise do not constitute a “secured claim” within the meaning of the laws of Reinsurer’s domiciliary state; or

(6)

the Company is denied credit on its financial statements filed in any jurisdiction with respect to the reinsurance provided by the Reinsurer, and the Reinsurer does not take all steps necessary to enable the Company to obtain credit on its financial statements within thirty (30) calendar days of the Reinsurer’s receipt of written notice from the Company as to the occurrence described herein; or

The occurrence of any Recapture Event shall entitle the Company to elect recapture remedies hereunder regardless of whether such an occurrence also constitutes an Event of Default.

(yyyyyyyyyyy)

Election of Remedy.  Upon the occurrence of any Recapture Event, the Company may elect to recapture, subject to the terms and conditions set forth below all, but not less than all, of the Policies and the Post-Closing Policies ceded hereunder.  The Company shall give the Reinsurer written notice of its election (the “Election Notice”) specifying the grounds for the exercise of its remedies pursuant to this Section 9.5 and if it elects to recapture all of the Policies and Post-Closing Policies, the fact of recapture, and the effective date of recapture which shall be (i) the last day of the month in which the Election Notice is delivered, if delivered prior to the fifteenth (15th) day of such month,  or (ii) the last day of the month immediately following the month in which the Recapture Notice is delivered, if delivered on or after the fifteenth (15th) day of such month (the “Recapture Date”).

(zzzzzzzzzzz)

Recapture.  Any recapture by the Company shall not be deemed to have been consummated until (i) the Company has given the Reinsurer an Election Notice pursuant to Section 9.5(b); and (ii) the Company has received payment of the entire Recapture Fee as determined in accordance with Exhibit F or an amount equal to the General Account Reserves from the Security Trust Account on the Recapture Date subject to adjustment pursuant to Exhibit E.  The Company may, in its sole discretion, withdraw assets from the Security Trust Account having an aggregate Market Value (determined pursuant to the Security Trust Agreement) not to exceed the amount of the Recapture Fee or an amount equal to the General Account Reserves from the Security Trust Account on the Recapture Date subject to adjustment pursuant to Exhibit F.  The Reinsurer shall promptly pay the Comp any the full amount of the Recapture Fee, reduced by the amount, if any, withdrawn from the Security Trust Account.  To the extent that the amount, if any, that the Company withdraws from the Security Trust Account exceeds the Recapture Fee, the Company shall promptly pay the excess to the Reinsurer.  Following the consummation of the recapture of Policies and Post-Closing Policies pursuant to this Section 9.5(c), no additional premiums, deposits or other amounts payable under such Policies and Post-Closing Policies shall be ceded to the Reinsurer hereunder.


DISPUTE RESOLUTION

Other Disputes over Calculations.  

(aaaaaaaaaaaa)

After the Closing Date, notwithstanding the provisions of Section 11.2 hereof, if any dispute between the parties with respect to the calculation of amounts which are to be calculated, reserved, reported, or which may be audited pursuant to this Agreement (other than disputes relating to the Closing Balance Sheet, which shall be resolved in accordance with the Purchase Agreement) cannot be resolved by the parties within sixty (60) calendar days, then the Company and the Reinsurer shall prepare separate written reports regarding the calculation(s) in dispute and refer such reports to two Independent Consultants (as that term is defined in the Purchase Agreement), selected in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.4 of the Purchase Agreement, within ten (10) Business Days after the expiration of the sixty (60) day period.  The Independent Consultant s shall determine as promptly as practicable the manner in which such calculation(s) should be treated; provided, however, that the dollar amount of each calculation in dispute shall be determined within the range of dollar amounts proposed by the Company, on the one hand, and the Reinsurer, on the other hand.  

(bbbbbbbbbbbb)

If the Independent Consultants cannot agree as to the manner in which the disputed calculation(s) should be treated, then the Independent Consultants shall select an Additional Consultant (as that term is defined in the Purchase Agreement), in accordance with procedures set forth in Section 2.4 of the Purchase Agreement, within ten (10) Business Days after expiration of the prior ten (10) Business Day period.  The Additional Consultant then shall determine within ten (10) Business Days the manner in which such disputed calculation(s) shall be treated; provided, however, that the dollar amount of each calculation in dispute shall be determined within the range of dollar amounts proposed by the Company and the Reinsurer.  

(cccccccccccc)

The determination by the Independent Consultants, or Additional Consultant, as to the calculation(s) in dispute shall be in writing and shall be Final and Binding (as that term is defined in the Purchase Agreement) on the parties.  The fees, costs and expenses of each Independent Consultant shall be paid by the party retaining the Independent Consultant, and the fees, costs and expenses of retaining the Additional Consultant shall be shared 50% by the Company and 50% by the Reinsurer.

Arbitration.

(dddddddddddd)

As a condition precedent to any right of action under this Agreement, except as provided by Section 11.1 hereof, any difference arising between the parties to this Agreement with reference to any transaction under this Agreement, including its formation and validity, shall be referred to an Arbitration Tribunal in the manner hereinafter set out.  “Arbitration Tribunal” shall mean the three arbitrators, selection of whom is defined in this Section.

(eeeeeeeeeeee)

Unless the parties agree upon a single arbitrator within thirty (30) days of one receiving a written request from the other for arbitration, the claimant (the party requesting arbitration) shall appoint its arbitrator and give written notice thereof to the respondent.  Within thirty (30) days of receiving such notice the respondent shall appoint its arbitrator and give written notice thereof to the claimant, failing which the claimant may nominate an arbitrator on behalf of the respondent.

(ffffffffffff)

The two arbitrators shall appoint a third arbitrator to be called the “umpire” within thirty (30) days after both have been appointed.  Should the arbitrators fail to agree on an umpire, each arbitrator shall select one name from a list of three names submitted by the other arbitrator and the umpire shall be selected by lot between the two names chosen.

(gggggggggggg)

The list of three names shall be submitted in writing to each party’s arbitrator within thirty (30) days after failure to appoint the umpire.  The selection of one name from each list shall be completed thirty (30) days after both lists have been received.  Failure to submit or select names within the designated time by either party will forfeit such right of that party and in the case of such default, the other party may nominate the umpire.

(hhhhhhhhhhhh)

The lot will be drawn automatically utilizing the Dow Jones Industrial Average on the third Business Day after both names have been chosen in writing.  A Dow Jones Industrial Average ending in an even number before the decimal point shall be deemed to be the selection of the claimant’s name and the Dow Jones Industrial Average ending in an odd number before the decimal point shall be deemed to be the selection of the respondent’s name.  The three arbitrators shall decide by majority.  The umpire will also act as chair of the Arbitration Tribunal and, in the event that no majority can be reached, the verdict of the umpire will prevail.

(iiiiiiiiiiii)

Unless otherwise agreed by the parties, the Arbitration Tribunal shall consist of persons with not less than ten years experience in the fields of life and annuity insurance or reinsurance.  All arbitrators shall be active or former disinterested officers or principals of insuring or reinsuring entities not under the control of either party.

(jjjjjjjjjjjj)

The Arbitration Tribunal shall interpret this Agreement with due regard to the industry practice of the parties and not as merely a legal obligation.  The arbitrators shall conduct the arbitration in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association and with a view to effecting the general purpose of this Agreement in a reasonable manner.

(kkkkkkkkkkkk)

The Arbitration Tribunal shall have power to fix procedural rules for the holding of the arbitration subject to the following guidelines:

(1)

The arbitration shall be conducted in the language in which the Agreement was written.

(2)

After the tribunal has been selected, the parties will submit, in quadruplicate, briefs on the matters at issue within thirty (30) days after notice of the tribunal’s selection.

(3)

All other papers and documents submitted in connection with the hearing will be provided in quadruplicate to the tribunal for distribution to the adverse party and the tribunal members.

(4)

At the expiration of thirty (30) days from the date on which the tribunal is selected, whether or not briefs have been submitted, the arbitrating parties shall receive a minimum of two weeks notice of the hearing date, which will be set within thirty (30) days after the expiration of the time for filing briefs.

(5)

All correspondence between the parties and the tribunal shall be by certified mail, return receipt requested.

(6)

The Arbitration Tribunal shall make its decision within thirty (30) days following the final hearing.

(7)

The arbitration decision shall be in writing and shall include any findings of fact and conclusions of law.

(8)

All costs of the arbitration shall be at the discretion of the Arbitration Tribunal which may direct to and by whom and what manner such costs shall be paid.  The Arbitration Tribunal shall award interest to the prevailing party, specifying the amount in writing, if deemed appropriate by the tribunal.  The Arbitration Tribunal may award attorney’s fees and other expenses at its discretion.  The Arbitration Tribunal may not award any punitive, exemplary, multiple or consequential damages of any nature.

(9)

The arbitration shall take place in Chicago, Illinois and the Arbitration Tribunal to the extent it looks to applicable law shall apply the laws of the State of Illinois.

(llllllllllll)

The arbitration shall be subject to the Federal Arbitration Act.  In addition, nothing contained in this Agreement shall prevent the Company or the Reinsurer from seeking an injunction from a court of competent jurisdiction to enforce the provisions of this Agreement pending dispute resolution of the conclusion of arbitration.

Award and Enforcement.  The award of the Arbitration Tribunal shall be in writing, final, and binding upon the parties who covenant to carry out the same.  If either of the parties should fail to carry out any award, the other may apply for its enforcement to a court of competent jurisdiction in any territory in which the party in default is domiciled or has assets or carries on business and such defaulting party shall submit to the jurisdiction of any court of competent jurisdiction in such territory and all matters arising hereunder shall be determined in accordance with the practice of such court.


INSOLVENCY

Insolvency Clause.  In the event of the insolvency of the Company, all coinsurance made, ceded, renewed or otherwise becoming effective under this Agreement shall be payable by the Reinsurer directly to the Company or to its liquidator, receiver or statutory successor except (a) where this Agreement specifically provides another payee of such reinsurance in the event of the insolvency of the Company or (b) where the Reinsurer, in its sole discretion has elected to obtain  the consent of the direct policyholders has assumed such policy obligations of the Company as direct obligations of the Reinsurer to the beneficiaries under such Policies or Post-Closing Policies and in substitution for the obligations of the Company to such beneficiaries on the basis of the liability of the Company under the Policies and Post-Closing Policies, without diminut ion because of the insolvency of the Company.  It is understood, however, that in the event of the insolvency of the Company, the liquidator or receiver or statutory successor of the Company shall give written notice of the pendency of a claim against the Company on a Policy or Post-Closing Policy within a reasonable period of time after such claim is filed in the insolvency proceedings 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 which it may deem available to the Company or its liquidator or receiver or statutory successor.  It is further understood that the expense thus incurred by the Reinsurer shall be chargeable, subject to court approval, against the Company as part of the expense of liquidation to the extent of a proportionate share of the benefit which may accrue to the Company solely as a result of the defense undertaken by the Reinsurer .


DURATION

Duration.  This Agreement shall continue in force until the earlier of (a) such time that the Reinsurer’s liability with respect to all Policies and Post-Closing Policies reinsured hereunder is terminated pursuant to Section 12.2 and (b) such time that the Reinsurer has elected, at its sole option, to assume all liabilities under all then outstanding Policies and Post-Closing Policies.

Reinsurer’s Liability.  The liability of the Reinsurer under this Agreement with respect to any Policy or Post-Closing Policy will begin simultaneously with that of the Company, but not prior to the Closing Date.  The Reinsurer’s liability with respect to any Policy or Post-Closing Policy will terminate on the earliest of (a) the date such Policy or Post-Closing Policy is recaptured in accordance with Section 9.5 or (b) the date the Company’s liability on such Policy or Post-Closing Policy is terminated in accordance with its terms.  Termination of the Reinsurer’s liability under clauses (a) and (b) herein is subject to the Company’s actual receipt of payments which discharge such liability in full in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.  In no event shall the interpretation of this Section 12.2 i mply a unilateral right of the Reinsurer to terminate this Agreement.

Survival.  Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Article XII, the terms and conditions of Article I, VIII, IX and X, Section 12.2 shall remain in full force and effect after the Termination Date.


MISCELLANEOUS

Entire Agreement.  This Agreement, the other Transaction Agreements, the Purchase Agreement, the other agreements contemplated hereby and thereby, and the exhibits and the schedules hereto and thereto contain the entire agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements, written or oral, with respect thereto.

Waivers and Amendments.  Any term or condition of this Agreement may be waived at any time by the party that is entitled to the benefit thereof.  Such waiver must be in writing and must be executed by an executive officer of such party.  A waiver on one occasion shall not be deemed to be a waiver of the same or any other term or condition on a future occasion.  This Agreement may be modified or amended only by a writing duly executed by an executive officer of the Company and the Reinsurer, respectively.

No Third Party Beneficiaries.  This Agreement constitutes an indemnity reinsurance agreement solely between the Company and the Reinsurer, and is intended solely for the benefit of the parties hereto and their permitted successors and assigns, and it is not the intention of the parties to confer any rights as a third-party beneficiary to this Agreement upon any other Person as to any term, condition or provision of this Agreement.

Assignment.  This Agreement shall not be assigned by either of the parties hereto, by operation of law or otherwise, without the prior written approval of the other party.

Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed simultaneously in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument.

Severability.  If any provision of this Agreement is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable under any present or future law or if determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable, and if the rights or obligations of the Company or the Reinsurer under this Agreement will not be materially and adversely affected thereby, such provision shall be fully severable, and this Agreement will be construed and enforced as if such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision had never comprised a part of this Agreement, and the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and will not be affected by the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision or by its severance herefrom.

Schedules, Exhibits and Paragraph Headings.  Schedules and exhibits attached hereto are made a part of this Agreement.  Paragraph headings are provided for reference purposes only and are not made a part of this Agreement.

Schedule 1.1(G)

Guaranty Fund Assessment Accrual Methodology


The Company receives the National Organization of Life and Health Insurance Guaranty Associations (NOLHGA) survey annually.  This survey provides data regarding insolvency costs, to assist in establishing GFA accruals.  Specific insolvency costs are given by company and by state, split by Life and Annuity.  The Company calculates its portion of each company’s (insolvent companies) costs by taking our premiums produced in that state over total industry premiums in that state (once again split between Life and Annuity) and multiplying that times the total estimated insolvency costs (by state) of that company (by Life and Annuity).  The Company does this for each insolvent company to determine the total estimated ultimate GFA liability.  Payments already made for each individual insolvency are then deducte d from each companies ultimate liability and these net costs are aggregated to get our total estimated GFA liability (i.e., the Company’s estimated future fundings).  The Company’s existing accrual is trued up to this new estimated liability.

Exhibit E

Recapture Fee

The Recapture Fee shall equal:

i)

The General Account Reserves as of the Recapture Date; minus

ii)

Any amounts payable under the Final Monthly Accounting pursuant to Section

4.2.  In this regard, amounts payable to the Reinsurer will be treated as positive and those

payable to the Company as negative; minus

iii)

The Termination Fee, determined as set forth below, provided, however, that with respect to a Recapture Date occurring within a period of three (3) years following the Closing Date, the Termination Fee shall be zero.

Interest, at the Interest Rate, shall be payable on amounts payable hereunder and shall accrue from the Recapture Date.

The above items will be as of the Recapture Date.  In the event that an item cannot be determined exactly a best estimate will be used and corrected as soon as it is practical to do so.  Until such time as all of items (ii) and (iii), and the interest payable, are based on final amounts, the Company will set up an amount equal to the estimates of these three amounts which is payable to the Reinsurer, but withheld from payment.

The Termination Fee shall equal the present value of all future profits for the Policies and Post-Closing Policies reinsured as of the Recapture Date, as determined by an actuarial appraisal.  To this end, the Reinsurer will perform such an appraisal following the Recapture Date and communicate an actuarial report (which includes the results) to the Company, which will have thirty (30) days from the receipt of the report to agree with the results or suggest changes to the Reinsurer’s appraisal.  If no agreement can be reached within ninety (90) days after the Recapture Date, this issue will be submitted for dispute resolution in accordance with Section 10.1 hereof.

The actuarial appraisals used to determine the Termination Fee will follow the principles of Actuarial Standard of Practice 19 and will reflect the in-force business and underlying assets of the Policies and Post-Closing Policies as of the Recapture Date.  The discount rate used shall be an after-tax rate equal to the greater of (a) 12%, or (b) the 10-year interest rate swap yield (as of the termination date) times 0.65 plus 6%.  The assumed ongoing expenses in the appraisal shall be based on industry standard expense factors from the NAIC’s Life Insurance Illustrations Model Regulation or its successor. These appraisals shall include recognition of required surplus at a level of 225% times the NAIC company action level risk based capital based on the characteristics of the assets and liabilities being recaptured.

Relationship of the Parties.  The parties agree that in performing their responsibilities pursuant to this Agreement, they are in the position of independent contractors.  This Agreement is not intended to create, nor does it create and shall not be construed to create, a relationship of partner or joint venturer or any association for profit between Providers and KILICO, on the one hand, and Recipient and the Purchased Companies, on the other hand.

Modification and Changes.  This Agreement, together with the applicable provisions of the Purchase Agreement, constitutes the entire agreement between the parties relating to the subject matter hereof.  This Agreement may only be amended by a written document signed by each of the parties.

Assignment.  This Agreement and the rights and obligations created under it shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns, and no other person shall acquire or have any right under or by virtue of this Agreement.  This Agreement shall not be assigned or transferred by any party without the prior written consent of the other parties.

Waivers.  No party shall be deemed to have waived any of its rights, powers or remedies hereunder unless such waiver is in writing and executed by the waiving party.

Severability.  If any provision or portion thereof of this Agreement is held invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable by reason of any rule of law, administrative or judicial provision or public policy, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable, and the remainder of such provision and all other provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect.

Force Majeure.  Anything else in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, the System Conversion Date and/or the KILICO System Conversion Date may each be extended to the extent that a party’s performance in the Conversion and/or the KILICO Conversion is prevented or delayed by fire, drought, explosion, flood, earthquake, act of God, or any other event or casualty beyond the reasonable control of Recipient or Providers, as applicable; provided, that the affected party shall resume the applicable conversion as promptly as practicable after any such event.

Notices.  All notices and other communications by Providers or Recipient hereunder shall be in writing to the other party and shall be deemed to have been duly given when delivered in person or to an overnight courier service, receipt requested, or sent via telecopy transmission with receipt verified or when posted by United States registered or certified mail, with postage prepaid, addressed as set forth in the Purchase Agreement.

Governing Law.  This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Illinois, without giving effect to the principles of conflicts of laws thereof.

Headings.  The headings contained herein are for convenience of reference only and are not intended to define, limit, expand or describe the scope or intent of any provision of this Agreement.

Execution; Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed by the parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument.  Each counterpart may consist of a number of copies hereof each signed by less than all, but together signed by all, of the parties hereto.  Counterparts of this Agreement may be executed and delivered by facsimile transmission.

Transfer of Duties.  Prior to the Conversion Date, Recipient and Providers may propose to undertake certain additional duties and relieve the other party of such duties or request the other party to assume additional duties.  Recipient and Providers shall cooperate in good faith with each other regarding such requests and negotiate in good faith any appropriate change in compensation hereunder to reflect any such changes in duties and services provided hereunder.

Term.  This Agreement shall commence on the Effective Date and shall continue in full force and effect until the later of the one year anniversary of the Effective Date, the Conversion Date and the KILICO Conversion Date, unless this Agreement is terminated sooner as provided under the terms hereof.  The termination of this Agreement shall not terminate, affect or impair any rights, obligations, or liabilities of any party hereto that have accrued prior to such termination or which, under the terms of this Agreement or the Purchase Agreement, continue after termination.  Upon termination of this Agreement, each party hereto shall be obligated to return to the other party, as soon as is reasonably practicable, any equipment or other property of the other party or its affiliates which is in such party’s control or possession.

Survival.  Sections 2.05, 2.08, 2.09, 5.01, Article VI and 8.13 hereof shall survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement.
