Common use of EXTRA-CONTRACTUAL DAMAGES Clause in Contracts

EXTRA-CONTRACTUAL DAMAGES. The Reinsurer will not participate in punitive or compensatory damages that are awarded against the Ceding Company as a result of an act, omission, or course of conduct committed solely by the Ceding Company, its agents, or representatives in connection with claims covered under this Agreement. The Reinsurer will, however, pay its share of statutory penalties awarded against the Ceding Company in connection with claims covered under this Agreement if the Reinsurer elected in writing to join in the contest of the coverage in question. The parties recognize that circumstances may arise in which equity would require the Reinsurer, to the extent permitted by law, to share proportionately in punitive and compensatory damages. Such circumstances are difficult to define in advance, but would generally be those situations in which the Reinsurer was an active party and, in writing, recommended, consented to, or ratified the act or course of conduct of the Ceding Company that ultimately resulted in the assessment of the extra-contractual damages. In such situations, the Reinsurer and the Ceding Company will share such damages so assessed, in equitable proportions. For purposes of this Article, the following definitions will apply.
