-4-

of Donegal Mutual beyond the liabilities Donegal Mutual has specifically assumed pursuant to this Agreement.

If Donegal Mutual shall object to such Southern Mutual statement or if Southern Mutual shall object to any response to such statement by Donegal Mutual, the objecting party shall give the other party written notice of such objection within 30 days of the objecting party’s receipt of such statement or response. Such notice of objection shall set forth in reasonable detail the elements and amounts to which the objecting party objects and the basis for such objections. If either party provides an objection notice, the other party, within 15 days after its receipt of the objection notice, shall seek to resolve the objection.

               (iv) To the extent that the amount of the Estimated Effective Date Ceding Commission as so determined was greater than the amount of the Actual Effective Date Ceding Commission, Southern Mutual shall forthwith remit to Donegal Mutual the amount by which the Estimated Effective Date Ceding Commission exceeded the Actual Effective Date Ceding Commission.

          (c) As additional consideration in connection with the reinsurance this Agreement establishes, Donegal Mutual shall be entitled to the Quota Share of any premium, fee and other amounts actually collected, with the exception of service charges, on or after the Effective Date by Southern Mutual with respect to the Covered Policies and Donegal Mutual shall be responsible for all Losses, including loss development, on Covered Policies after the Effective Date.
