Reinsurance Administration A. Within thirty (30) days after the end of each calendar month, the Cedent shall take all reasonable and appropriate steps to furnish the Reinsurer with a seriatim electronic report, as detailed in Schedule C, for each Reinsured Contract, valued as of the last day of that month. On or before September 30, 2001, the Cedent shall provide the initial seriatim electronic report, which shall cover the period from the Effective Date hereof through August 31, 2001; provided, however, that the initial seriatim electronic report may omit Funding Vehicle Values by MorningStar designation. The Cedent shall provide complete seriatim electronic data, as required herein, on or before April 30, 2002. Failure to provide this information as required shall constitute a material breach within the scope of Article XX, Paragraph G.
B. Additionally, within thirty (30) days after the end of each calendar month the Cedent shall furnish the Reinsurer with a separate Summary Statement containing the following:
1. Reinsurance Premiums due to the Reinsurer summarized separately for each premium class by GMDB, EPB, and Income Program, as shown in Exhibit II;
2. benefit claim recoverables due to the Cedent in total and, if applicable, broken down by VNAR, SCNAR, and EEMNAR and Income Program; and
3. the month end date for the period covered by the Summary Statement.
C. If the net balance is due to the Reinsurer, the Cedent shall remit the amount due with the Summary Statement, but no later than thirty (30) days after the month end date for the period covered by the Summary Statement. If the net balance is due to the Cedent, the Reinsurer shall remit the amount due to the Cedent within ten (10) days after receipt of the Summary Statement.
D. The payment of Reinsurance Premiums is a condition precedent to the liability of the Reinsurer under this Agreement. In the event that the Cedent does not pay the Reinsurance Premiums in a timely manner, as defined below, the Reinsurer may exercise the following rights:
1. The Reinsurer shall charge interest if Reinsurance Premiums are not paid within thirty (30) days of the due date, as defined in Paragraph C of this Article. The interest rate charged shall be based on the ninety-(90) day federal Treasury Xxxx, as published in The Wall Street Journal on the first business day in the month following the due date of the Reinsurance Premiums, plus one hundred (100) basis points. The method of calculation shall be simple interest (360-day year).
2. The Reinsurer may terminate this Agreement in the event that Reinsurance Premium payments are more than sixty (60) days past due after the due date, as described in Paragraph C of this Article, by giving sixty (60) day written notice of termination to the Cedent. As of the close of the last day of this sixty-(60) day notice period, the Reinsurer's liability with respect to the ceded liabilities shall terminate. If all Reinsurance Premiums that are the subject of a sixty (60) day termination notice shall have been received by the Reinsurer within the time specified, the termination notice shall be deemed vacated and the Agreement shall remain in effect.

(a) the pay specified in Appendix A for the classification of the position to which the employee is appointed, if the classification coincides with that prescribed in the employee's document of appointment, or

(iii) for promotions, demotions, deployments, transfers or acting situations effective during the retroactive period, the rate of pay shall be recalculated, such that the recalculated rate of pay equals the sum of the rate of pay the employee was previously receiving, plus any retroactive upward revision to that previous rate of pay, plus the same percentage increase, if any, in the rate of pay that the employee received at the time of promotion, demotion, deployment, transfer, or acting situation;
(iv) no payment nor notification shall be made pursuant to paragraph 43.03(b) for one dollar ($1.00) or less.
43.04 When an employee is required by the Employer to perform the duties of a higher classification level on an acting basis for a period of at least five (5) consecutive working days, the employee shall be paid acting pay calculated from the date on which the employee commenced to act as if he or she had been appointed to that higher classification level for the period in which he or she acts.

Health Spending Account (HSA Wellness Spending Account (WSA)/Registered Retirement Savings Plan (RRSP) utilization rates;
Maintenance of the Primary Insurance Policies; Collections Thereunder (a) The Master Servicer shall not take, or permit any Subservicer to take, any action which would result in non-coverage under any applicable Primary Insurance Policy of any loss which, but for the actions of the Master Servicer or Subservicer, would have been covered thereunder. To the extent coverage is available, the Master Servicer shall keep or cause to be kept in full force and effect each such Primary Insurance Policy until the principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan secured by a Mortgaged Property is reduced to 80% or less of the Appraised Value in the case of such a Mortgage Loan having a Loan-to-Value Ratio at origination in excess of 80%, provided that such Primary Insurance Policy was in place as of the Cut-off Date and the Company had knowledge of such Primary Insurance Policy. The Master Servicer shall be entitled to cancel or permit the discontinuation of any Primary Insurance Policy as to any Mortgage Loan, if the Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loan is reduced below an amount equal to 80% of the appraised value of the related Mortgaged Property as determined in any appraisal thereof after the Closing Date, or if the Loan-to-Value Ratio is reduced below 80% as a result of principal payments on the Mortgage Loan after the Closing Date. In the event that the Company gains knowledge that as of the Closing Date, a Mortgage Loan had a Loan-to-Value Ratio at origination in excess of 80% and is not the subject of a Primary Insurance Policy (and was not included in any exception to the representation in Section 2.03(b)(iv)) and that such Mortgage Loan has a current Loan-to-Value Ratio in excess of 80% then the Master Servicer shall use its reasonable efforts to obtain and maintain a Primary Insurance Policy to the extent that such a policy is obtainable at a reasonable price. The Master Servicer shall not cancel or refuse to renew any such Primary Insurance Policy applicable to a Nonsubserviced Mortgage Loan, or consent to any Subservicer canceling or refusing to renew any such Primary Insurance Policy applicable to a Mortgage Loan subserviced by it, that is in effect at the date of the initial issuance of the Certificates and is required to be kept in force hereunder unless the replacement Primary Insurance Policy for such canceled or non-renewed policy is maintained with an insurer whose claims-paying ability is acceptable to each Rating Agency for mortgage pass-through certificates having a rating equal to or better than the lower of the then-current rating or the rating assigned to the Certificates as of the Closing Date by such Rating Agency.
(b) In connection with its activities as administrator and servicer of the Mortgage Loans, the Master Servicer agrees to present or to cause the related Subservicer to present, on behalf of the Master Servicer, the Subservicer, if any, the Trustee and Certificateholders, claims to the related Insurer under any Primary Insurance Policies, in a timely manner in accordance with such policies, and, in this regard, to take or cause to be taken such reasonable action as shall be necessary to permit recovery under any Primary Insurance Policies respecting defaulted Mortgage Loans. Pursuant to Section 3.07, any Insurance Proceeds collected by or remitted to the Master Servicer under any Primary Insurance Policies shall be deposited in the Custodial Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 3.10.
Health Care Spending Account After six (6) months of permanent employment, full time and part time (20/40 or greater) employees may elect to participate in a Health Care Spending Account (HCSA) Program designed to qualify for tax savings under Section 125 of the Internal Revenue Code, but such savings are not guaranteed. The HCSA Program allows employees to set aside a predetermined amount of money from their pay, not to exceed the maximum amount authorized by federal law, per calendar year, of before tax dollars, for health care expenses not reimbursed by any other health benefit plans. HCSA dollars may be expended on any eligible medical expenses allowed by Internal Revenue Code Section 125. Any unused balance is forfeited and cannot be recovered by the employee.
Maintenance of Hazard Insurance; Maintenance of Primary Insurance Policies (a) The Master Servicer shall maintain, for each Mortgage Loan, hazard insurance with extended coverage in an amount that is at least equal to the lesser of
(i) the maximum insurable value of the improvements securing the Mortgage Loan and
(ii) the greater of (y) the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan and (z) an amount such that the proceeds of the policy are sufficient to prevent the Mortgagor or the mortgagee from becoming a co-insurer. Each policy of standard hazard insurance shall contain, or have an accompanying endorsement that contains, a standard mortgagee clause. Any amounts collected under the policies (other than the amounts to be applied to the restoration or repair of the related Mortgaged Property or amounts released to the Mortgagor in accordance with the Master Servicer's normal servicing procedures) shall be deposited in the Certificate Account. Any cost incurred in maintaining any insurance shall not, for the purpose of calculating monthly distributions to the Certificateholders or remittances to the Trustee for their benefit, be added to the principal balance of the Mortgage Loan, notwithstanding that the Mortgage Loan so permits. Such costs shall be recoverable by the Master Servicer out of late payments by the related Mortgagor or out of Liquidation Proceeds to the extent permitted by Section 3.09. No earthquake or other additional insurance is to be required of any Mortgagor or maintained on property acquired in respect of a Mortgage other than pursuant to any applicable laws and regulations in force that require additional insurance. If the Mortgaged Property is located at the time of origination of the Mortgage Loan in a federally designated special flood hazard area and the area is participating in the national flood insurance program, the Master Servicer shall maintain flood insurance for the Mortgage Loan. The flood insurance shall be in an amount equal to the least of (i) the original principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan, (ii) the replacement value of the improvements that are part of the Mortgaged Property, and (iii) the maximum amount of flood insurance available for the related Mortgaged Property under the national flood insurance program. If the Master Servicer obtains and maintains a blanket policy insuring against hazard losses on all of the Mortgage Loans, it shall have satisfied its obligations in the first sentence of this Section 3.10. The policy may contain a deductible clause on terms substantially equivalent to those commercially available and maintained by comparable servicers. If the policy contains a deductible clause and a policy complying with the first sentence of this Section 3.10 has not been maintained on the related Mortgaged Property, and if a loss that would have been covered by the required policy occurs, the Master Servicer shall deposit in the Certificate Account, without any right of reimbursement, the amount not otherwise payable under the blanket policy because of the deductible clause. In connection with its activities as Master Servicer of the Mortgage Loans, the Master Servicer agrees to present, on behalf of itself, the Depositor, and the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders, claims under any blanket policy.
(b) The Master Servicer shall not take any action that would result in non-coverage under any applicable Primary Insurance Policy of any loss that, but for the actions of the Master Servicer, would have been covered thereunder. The Master Servicer shall not cancel or refuse to renew any Primary Insurance Policy that is in effect at the date of the initial issuance of the Certificates and is required to be kept in force hereunder unless the replacement Primary Insurance Policy for the canceled or non-renewed policy is maintained with a Qualified Insurer. The Master Servicer need not maintain any Primary Insurance Policy if maintaining the Primary Insurance Policy is prohibited by applicable law. The Master Servicer agrees, to the extent permitted by applicable law, to effect the timely payment of the premiums on each Primary Insurance Policy, and any costs not otherwise recoverable shall be recoverable by the Master Servicer from the related liquidation proceeds. In connection with its activities as Master Servicer of the Mortgage Loans, the Master Servicer agrees to present, on behalf of itself, the Trustee and the Certificateholders, claims to the insurer under any Primary Insurance Policies and, in this regard, to take any reasonable action in accordance with the Servicing Standard necessary to permit recovery under any Primary Insurance Policies respecting defaulted Mortgage Loans. Any amounts collected by the Master Servicer under any Primary Insurance Policies shall be deposited in the Certificate Account or the Collection Account (as applicable).
Payment of Reinsurance Premiums For automatic and facultative reinsurance, following the close of each calendar month, the Ceding Company will send the Reinsurer a statement and a listing of new business, changes and terminations. If a net reinsurance premium balance is payable to the Reinsurer, the Ceding Company will forward this balance within (60) sixty days after the close of each month. If a net reinsurance premium balance is payable to the Ceding Company, the balance due will be subtracted from the reinsurance premium payable by Ceding Company for the current month. The Reinsurer shall pay any remaining balance due the Ceding Company sixty days after the Ceding Company submits the statement.
