CLAIM EXPENSES The Reinsurer will pay its share of reasonable claim investigation and legal expenses connected with the litigation or settlement of contractual liability claims unless the Reinsurer has discharged its liability pursuant to Section 9.4 above. If the Reinsurer has so discharged its liability, the Reinsurer will not participate in any expenses incurred thereafter. The Reinsurer will not reimburse the Ceding Company for routine claim and administration expenses, including but not limited to the Ceding Company's home office expenses, compensation of salaried officers and employees, and any legal expenses other than third party expenses incurred by the Ceding Company. Claim investigation expenses do not include expenses incurred by the Ceding Company as a result of a dispute or contest arising out of conflicting claims of entitlement to policy proceeds or benefits.
Disputed Amounts 28.1.1 If any portion of an amount due to a Party (the “Billing Party”) under this Agreement is subject to a bona fide dispute between the Parties, the Party billed (the “Non-Paying Party”) shall, prior to the ▇▇▇▇ Due Date, give written notice to the Billing Party of the amounts it disputes (“Disputed Amounts”) and include in such written notice the specific details and reasons for disputing each item; provided, however, a failure to provide such notice by that date shall not preclude a Party from subsequently challenging billed charges provided that such charges were paid. The Non-Paying Party shall pay when due all undisputed amounts to the Billing Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, except as provided in Section 28.2, a Party shall be entitled to dispute only those charges for which the Date was within the immediately preceding eighteen (18) months of the date on which the other Party received notice of such Disputed Amounts. 28.1.2 If the Non-Paying Party disputes charges and the dispute is resolved in favor of such Non-Paying Party, the Billing Party shall credit the invoice of the Non-Paying Party for the amount of the Disputed Amounts along with any applicable late payment charges no later than the second ▇▇▇▇ Due Date after the resolution of the Dispute. Accordingly, if a Non-Paying Party disputes charges and the dispute is resolved in favor of the Billing Party, the Non-Paying Party shall pay the Billing Party the amount of the Disputed Amounts and any associated late payment charges no later than the second ▇▇▇▇ Due Date after the resolution of the Dispute. Late payment charges shall be assessed as set forth in Section 27.8. 28.1.3 If the Parties are unable to resolve the issues related to the Disputed Amounts in the normal course of business within sixty (60) days after delivery to the Billing Party of notice of the Disputed Amounts, each of the Parties shall appoint a designated representative who has authority to settle the Dispute and who is at a higher level of management than the persons with direct responsibility for administration of this Agreement. The designated representatives shall meet as often as they reasonably deem necessary in order to discuss the Dispute and negotiate in good faith in an effort to resolve such Dispute. The specific format for such discussions will be left to the discretion of the designated representatives; however all reasonable requests for relevant information made by one Party to the other Party shall be honored. 28.1.4 If the Parties are unable to resolve issues related to the Disputed Amounts within forty-five (45) days after the Parties' appointment of designated representatives pursuant to Section 28.3, then either Party may file a complaint with the Commission to resolve such issues or proceed with any other remedy pursuant to law or equity. The Commission or the FCC may direct payment of any or all Disputed Amounts (including any accrued interest) thereon or additional amounts awarded, plus applicable late fees, to be paid to either Party. 28.1.5 The Parties agree that all negotiations pursuant to this Section 28.1 shall remain confidential in accordance with Article XX and shall be treated as compromise and settlement negotiations for purposes of the Federal Rules of Evidence and state rules of evidence.
Indemnity Payments 4.1. Any indemnity payments pursuant to this Agreement shall be made by the Indemnifying Parties to the Indemnified Party in full, without any set off, counterclaim, restriction or condition and without any deduction or withholding (save as may be required by applicable Law or as otherwise agreed in this Agreement or in writing between the Parties). If Tax must be withheld / deducted, or any other Tax is payable in relation to indemnity payments, such additional amounts must be paid by the Indemnifying Party as may be necessary to ensure that the Indemnified Party receives a net amount equal to the full amount which it would have received had payment not been made subject to such Tax or withholding or deductions. 4.2. Any indemnity payments made by the Indemnifying Parties pursuant to this Agreement shall be effected by crediting for same day value the account specified by the Indemnified Party on behalf of the party entitled to the payment (reasonably in advance and in sufficient detail to enable payment by electronic transfer to be effected) on or before the due date for payment. 4.3. The Parties agree that the Indemnified Party shall be indemnified by the Company with respect to its indemnification event (in its capacity as the Indemnifying Party) and the amount of such indemnification payment shall be grossed-up by the Company to take into account the fact that the Indemnified Party as a shareholder of the Company may be indirectly paying a portion of such indemnification payment. 4.4. To the extent the payment by the Indemnifying Party of any indemnification payment pursuant to the provisions of Clause 7 (Indemnification) shall be subject to receipt of approvals from any Governmental Authority (if required), the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall be responsible for obtaining all such approvals from any Governmental Authority and shall make all applications and take all steps required to obtain the same. Alternatively, if mutually agreed between the Parties, with both Parties acting reasonably, the claim amount (that is, the Loss) shall be paid to any Affiliate or nominee of the Indemnified Party.
Claims Payment The Reinsurer will be liable to the Company for its share of the benefits owed under the express contractual terms of the Reinsured Policies and as specified under the terms of this Agreement. The Reinsurer will not participate in any ex gratia payments made by the Company (i.e., payments the Company is not required to make under the Reinsured Policy terms.) The payment of death benefits by the Reinsurer will be in one lump sum regardless of the mode of settlement under the Reinsured Policy. Benefit payments from the Reinsurer will be due within 30 days of the claim satisfying the requirements established under this Agreement. The Reinsurer’s share of any interest payable under the terms of a Reinsured Policy or applicable law which is based on the death benefits paid by the Company, will be payable provided that the Reinsurer will not be liable for interest accruing on or after the date of the Company’s payment of benefits. The Reinsurer’s share will be based upon the same interest rate and days used by the Company to calculate their interest paid. The Reinsurer will make payment to the Company for each such claim. For Waiver of Premium claims, the Company will continue to pay premiums for reinsurance, except premiums for disability reinsurance. The Reinsurer will pay its proportionate share of the gross premium waived by the Company on the Reinsured Policy, including its share of the premiums for benefits that remain in effect during disability. I414849US-12 (11-01-2011) QT#04028US11 (COLI & B▇▇▇) For claims on Accelerated Benefit riders reinsured under this Agreement, the benefit amount payable by the Reinsurer will be calculated by multiplying the total accelerated death benefit rider payout by the ratio of the reinsured Net Amount at Risk, as defined in Exhibit C -1, to the face amount of the Reinsured Policy.
