GENERAL PROVISIONS
1. | Annuities and Risks Reinsured. The Reinsurer agrees to indemnify the Ceding Company for, and the Ceding Company agrees to reinsure with the Reinsurer, according to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the portion of the risks under the annuities and riders described in the attached Schedule A. | |
As used in this Agreement, the term “Base Annuities” means the base variable annuity contracts reinsured under this Agreement; the term “Riders” means the riders that are issued in connection with the Base Annuities and are reinsured under this Agreement, as described in Schedule A; and the term “Annuities” means the Base Annuities and Riders, together. | ||
2. | Coverages and Exclusions. |
A. | Only the Base Annuities and Riders described in Schedule A are reinsured under this Agreement. | ||
B. | Only Annuities sold by the Ceding Company in the United States to United States residents are reinsured under this Agreement. | ||
C. | The Reinsurer will participate in policy loans on the Annuities. |
3. | Plan of Reinsurance. This indemnity reinsurance will be on a modified coinsurance basis for the Base Annuities and the DCA Plus Fixed Income Rider and on a coinsurance basis for all Riders, excluding the DCA Plus Fixed Income Rider. The Ceding Company will retain, control and own all assets held in relation to the Modified Coinsurance Reserve. |
4. | Expenses. The Reinsurer will bear no part of the expenses incurred in connection with the Annuities, except as otherwise provided herein. |
5. | Annuity Changes. The Ceding Company must provide written notification to the Reinsurer of any change in the Annuity contract language or any change made pursuant to the Annuity contract language which materially affects the original terms or conditions of the reinsurance of any Annuity, including, but not |

limited to, changes in the variable investment options, changes in the calculation of withdrawal charges, changes made to preserve status of the contracts as annuities under the Internal Revenue Code and changes made to comply with applicable law, no less than thirty (30) days after the change takes effect. The Reinsurer will provide written notification to the Ceding Company as to the Reinsurer’s acceptance or rejection of the change within fifteen (15) days after receipt of notice of the change. If the Reinsurer accepts any such change, the Reinsurer will (a) assume that portion of any increase in the Ceding Company’s liability, resulting from the change, which corresponds to the portion of the Annuities reinsured hereunder, and (b) receive credit for that portion of any decrease in the Ceding Company’s liability, resulting from the change, which corresponds to the portion of the Annuities reinsured hereunder. If the Reinsurer rejects any such change, the Reinsurer’s liability under this Agreement will be determined as if no such change had occurred. Notwithstanding the preceding, changes in the beneficiary shall not be subject to this Paragraph 5. |
6. | No Extracontractual Damages. The Reinsurer does not indemnify the Ceding Company for, and will not be liable for, any extracontractual damages or extracontractual liability resulting from fraud, oppression, bad faith, strict liability, or negligent, reckless or intentional wrongs on the part of the Ceding Company or its directors, officers, employees and agents. The following types of damages are examples of damages that would be excluded from this Agreement for the conduct described above: actual damages, damages for emotional distress, and punitive or exemplary damages. In no event will the Reinsurer participate in punitive or compensatory damages. |

The parties will not use any information obtained through any inspection pursuant to this Paragraph for any purpose not relating to reinsurance hereunder. |

10. | Election to Determine Specified Annuity Acquisition Expenses. The Ceding Company and the Reinsurer agree to the election pursuant to Section 1.848-2(g)(8) of the Income Tax Regulations effective December 29, 1992, under Section 848 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (such election being referred to as the “DAC Tax Election”) whereby: |
(a) | The party with net positive consideration under this Agreement for each taxable year will capitalize specified annuity acquisition expenses with respect to the Annuities reinsured under this Agreement without regard to the general deductions limitation of Section 848(c)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. | ||
(b) | The parties agree to exchange information pertaining to the amount of net consideration under this Agreement each year to ensure consistency or as otherwise required by the Internal Revenue Service. If requested, the Ceding Company will provide supporting information reasonably requested by the Reinsurer. The term “net consideration” means “net consideration” as defined in Regulation Section 1.848-2(f). | ||
(c) | The DAC Tax Election will be effective for the first taxable year in which this Agreement is effective and for all years for which this Agreement remains in effect. |
The Ceding Company and the Reinsurer will each attach a schedule to their respective federal income tax returns filed for the first taxable year for which this DAC Tax Election is effective. Such schedule will identify the Agreement as a reinsurance agreement for which the DAC Tax Election under Regulation Section 1.848-2(g)(8) has been made. |
11. | Condition. The reinsurance hereunder is subject to the same limitations and conditions specified in the Annuities and their accompanying prospectuses, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement. |
Page 4 of 39
12. | Misunderstandings and Oversights. If any failure to pay amounts due or to perform any other act required by this Agreement is unintentional and caused by misunderstanding or oversight, the Ceding Company and the Reinsurer will adjust the situation to what it would have been had the misunderstanding or oversight not occurred. |
13. | Adjustments. If the Ceding Company’s liability under any of the Annuities reinsured hereunder is changed because of a misstatement of age, sex or any other material fact, the Reinsurer will (a) assume that portion of any increase in the Ceding Company’s liability, resulting from the change, which corresponds to the portion of the Annuities reinsured hereunder, and (b) receive credit for that portion of any decrease in the Ceding Company’s liability, resulting from the change, which corresponds to the portion of the Annuities reinsured hereunder. |
14. | Reinstatements. If an Annuity lapses, and is subsequently reinstated while this Agreement is in force, the reinsurance for such Annuity will be reinstated automatically.

15. | Remedies and Waiver. All remedies of any party are cumulative. Failure of either the Ceding Company or the Reinsurer to exercise any right, privilege, power or remedy at law, equity or in existence by virtue of this Agreement or to otherwise insist upon strict compliance with any of the terms, provisions and conditions of this Agreement, or the obligations of the other party, will not constitute a waiver of such right, privilege, power, remedy, term, provision, condition, or obligation. Moreover, the failure of either party to enforce any part of this Agreement shall not be deemed to be an act of ratification or consent. No prior transactions or dealings between the parties shall be deemed to establish any custom or usage waiving or modifying any provision of this Agreement. |
16. | Assignment. Neither party may assign any of its rights, duties or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld. |

18. | Amendments. This Agreement may be amended only by written agreement of the parties. Any change or modification to this Agreement shall be null and void unless made by amendment to this Agreement and signed by both parties. |
19. | Current Practices. The Ceding Company will not materially change, alter or otherwise compromise its claims paying or administrative practices with respect to the Annuities without prior written consent of the Reinsurer. For purposes of this Paragraph, a material change or alteration is deemed to occur when such change or alteration could affect the liability of the Reinsurer under this Agreement. |

ACCOUNTING AND SETTLEMENTS
1. | Quarterly Accounting Period. Each Accounting Period under this Agreement will be a calendar quarter, except that: (a) the initial Accounting Period runs from the Effective Date of this Agreement through the last day of the calendar quarter during which this Agreement is executed by both parties, and (b) the final Accounting Period runs from the end of the preceding Accounting Period until the terminal accounting date of this Agreement, as described in Article VIII, Paragraph 2.

5. | Annual Accounting Reports. The Ceding Company will provide the Reinsurer with annual accounting reports within thirty (30) days after the end of the calendar year for which such reports are prepared. These reports will contain sufficient information about the Annuities to enable the Reinsurer to prepare its annual financial reports and to verify the information reported in Schedule B, and will include Exhibit 5 by reserve basis, Page 7, Page 28, and Schedule S of the Annual Statement. |
6. | Monthly Reports. Not later than seven (7) days after the end of each calendar month, the Ceding Company will provide the Reinsurer with reports showing more detailed information with respect to the Annuities described under “Monthly Seriatim Data File” in Schedule B hereto on a monthly basis.

7. | Estimations. If the amounts, as defined in Paragraph 3 above, cannot be determined by the dates described in Paragraph 4 above, on an exact basis, such payments will be paid in accordance with a mutually agreed upon formula which will approximate the actual payments.

8. | Delayed Payments. For purposes of Paragraph 4 above, if there is a delayed settlement of a payment due, there will be an interest penalty, at the Delayed Payment Rate described in Paragraph 9 below, for the period that the amount is overdue.

10. | Offset of Payments. All monies due either the Ceding Company or the Reinsurer under this Agreement or any other reinsurance agreements between the parties will be offset against each other, dollar for dollar, regardless of any insolvency of either party.

6. | Recapture Charge. In the event this Agreement is terminated in accordance with Paragraphs 3 and 5 above, or Paragraph 7 below, an Agreement termination value shall be calculated by the Reinsurer in good faith as of the effective date of termination according to “best practices” that are appropriate to valuing variable annuities and related cash flows and consistent with the terms of this Agreement. The Ceding Company shall have sixty (60) calendar days to either accept the termination value as calculated or raise objections. The parties shall cooperate with each other in order to resolve any disagreement with respect to the termination value. If the Ceding Company does not accept the termination value, the Reinsurer may submit the calculation to a nationally recognized, independent actuarial firm (including without limitation, the actuarial group of a nationally recognized, independent accounting firm), that is mutually acceptable to the parties (hereinafter the “Actuarial Firm”) for confirmation as being reasonably consistent with the terms of this Agreement. If the parties cannot reach agreement as to the termination value after receiving the results from the Actuarial Firm, the matter will be submitted to arbitration, in accordance with Article X. The parties will share equally in the costs and expenses incurred by the Actuarial Firm. | |
It is recognized and acknowledged by both parties that “best practices” for valuing cash flows linked to variable annuities include: |
i) | commencing with seriatim in force data as of the effective date of termination; | ||
ii) | fixing actuarial assumptions such as lapse, mortality, mortality improvement, utilization, etc. within a range deemed consistent with market standards; | ||
iii) | determining market inputs for interest rates, implied volatilities, and other market inputs; and |
Page 21 of 39
iv) | valuing the present value of all the future cash flows using the inputs and assumptions determined above. |
The discount rate used in the present value of future cash flows described above will not
reflect any credit deterioration by the Ceding Company since the Effective Date of this
Agreement.
If the projected Agreement termination value is positive, the absolute value shall be paid
as a Recapture Charge to the Reinsurer by the Ceding Company. Payment of such amount will
be made within thirty (30) days of receipt of the calculation. The terminal accounting date
will be the effective date of termination pursuant to this Agreement.
7. | Internal Replacements. Should the Ceding Company, its affiliates, successors or assigns, initiate a program of Internal Replacement that would include any of the Annuities, the Ceding Company will immediately notify the Reinsurer. The Reinsurer may elect to treat such Annuities as recaptured rather than surrendered, and such recapture will apply to all Annuities. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Internal Replacement” means any instance in which an Annuity or any portion of the cash value of an Annuity is exchanged for another policy or annuity, not covered under this Agreement, which is written by the Ceding Company, its affiliates, successors or assigns. |

ARTICLE VIII
TERMINAL ACCOUNTING AND SETTLEMENT
1. | Terminal Accounting. In the event that this Agreement is terminated in accordance with Article VII, Paragraph 3, or all reinsurance under this Agreement is recaptured in accordance with Article VII, Paragraph 4, a Terminal Accounting and Settlement will take place. | |
2. | Date. The terminal accounting date will be the earliest of: (1) the effective date of recapture pursuant to any notice of recapture given under this Agreement, (2) the effective date of termination pursuant to any notice of termination given under this Agreement, or (3) such other date mutually agreed to in writing. | |
3. | Settlement. The Terminal Accounting and Settlement will consist of: |
(a) | the quarterly settlement as provided in Article VI, Paragraph 3, computed as of the terminal accounting date; | ||
(b) | payment by the Ceding Company to the Reinsurer of a Terminal Reserve equal to the Modified Coinsurance Reserve on the Annuities as of the terminal accounting date; | ||
(c) | payment by the Reinsurer to the Ceding Company of a Terminal Reserve Adjustment equal to the Modified Coinsurance Reserve on the Annuities as of the terminal accounting date; and | ||
(d) | payment by the Ceding Company to the Reinsurer of any Recapture Charge determined in accordance with Article VII, Paragraph 5, computed as of the terminal accounting date. |
If the calculation of the Terminal Accounting and Settlement produces an amount owing to the
Ceding Company, such amount will be paid by the Reinsurer to the Ceding Company. If the
calculation of the Terminal Accounting and Settlement produces an amount owing to the
Reinsurer, such amount will be paid by the Ceding Company to the Reinsurer.
4. | Supplementary Accounting and Settlement. In the event that, subsequent to the Terminal Accounting and Settlement as provided above, a change is made with respect to any amounts due, a supplementary accounting will take place pursuant to Paragraph 3 above. Any amount owed to the Ceding Company or to |
Page 23 of 39
the Reinsurer by reason of such supplementary accounting will be paid promptly upon the
completion thereof.

Page 25 of 39
ARTICLE X
ARBITRATION
1. | General. All disputes and differences between the Ceding Company and the Reinsurer on which an agreement cannot be reached will be decided by arbitration. The arbitrators will construe this Agreement from the standpoint of practical business and equitable principles and the customs and practices of the insurance and reinsurance business, rather than from the standpoint of strict law. Moreover, the arbitrators shall be released from judicial formalities and shall not be bound by strict rules of procedure and evidence. The parties intend that the arbitrators will make their decision with a view to effecting the intent of this Agreement. | |
2. | Method. Three arbitrators will decide any differences. They must be impartial and present or former officers of life insurance companies other than the parties to this Agreement or any company owned by, or affiliated with, either party. One of the arbitrators is to be appointed by the Reinsurer, another by the Ceding Company, and the two arbitrators thus appointed will select a third arbitrator before arbitration begins. Should one of the parties decline to select an arbitrator within ninety (90) days after the date of any written request to do so or should the two arbitrators selected by the parties not be able to agree upon the choice of a third, the appointment(s) will be left to the XXXX Reinsurance and Insurance Arbitration Society — US (“XXXXX — US”) umpire selection process. The arbitrators will decide by a majority of votes and their decision will be final and binding upon the parties. The arbitrators will hand down their decision within forty-five (45) days of the close of the arbitration proceedings. The costs of arbitration, including the fees of the arbitrators, will be shared equally by the parties unless the arbitrators decide otherwise. Any counsel fees incurred by a party in the conduct of arbitration will be paid by the party incurring the fees. |

ARTICLE XI
INSOLVENCY
Ceding Company’s Insolvency. In the event of the Ceding Company’s insolvency, any payments
due the Ceding Company from the Reinsurer pursuant to the terms of this Agreement will be made
directly to the Ceding Company or its conservator, liquidator, receiver or statutory successor. The
reinsurance will be payable by the Reinsurer on the basis of the liability of the Ceding Company
under the Annuities without diminution because of the insolvency of the Ceding Company. The
conservator, liquidator, receiver or statutory successor of the Ceding Company will give the
Reinsurer written notice of the pendency of a claim against the Ceding Company on any Annuity
within a reasonable time after such claim is filed in the insolvency proceeding. During the
pendency of any such claim, the Reinsurer may investigate such claim and interpose in the Ceding
Company’s name (or in the name of the Ceding Company’s conservator, liquidator, receiver or
statutory successor), in the proceeding where such claim is to be adjudicated, any defense or
defenses which the Reinsurer may deem available to the Ceding Company or its conservator,
liquidator, receiver or statutory successor. The expense thus incurred by the Reinsurer will be
chargeable, subject to court approval, against the Ceding Company as a part of the expense of
liquidation to the extent of a proportionate share of the benefit that may accrue to the Ceding
Company solely as a result of the defense undertaken by the Reinsurer.
Reinsurer’s Insolvency. In the event of the Reinsurer’s insolvency, the Ceding Company may
terminate the Agreement for new business and will promptly notify the Reinsurer of its intent. The
parties agree to waive the notification period for this cancellation and the effective date will be
no earlier than the effective date of the Reinsurer’s insolvency. Upon giving notice to the
Reinsurer, the Ceding Company may also recapture the business reinsured by the Reinsurer under this
Agreement.
If the Reinsurer’s authorized control level risk based capital falls below 250% for two consecutive
quarters (“RBC Event”), the Ceding Company may terminate this Agreement for new business and may
also recapture the reinsurance ceded under this Agreement. The Reinsurer will provide written
notice to the Ceding Company within seven (7) days of knowledge of an RBC Event.

SCHEDULE C
MODIFIED COINSURANCE RESERVE INVESTMENT CREDIT
Modified Coinsurance Reserve Investment Credit. The Modified Coinsurance Reserve
Investment Credit, for any Accounting Period, equals the accrued investment income and capital
gains and losses, realized and unrealized, allocated to the portion of the annuities reinsured
hereunder during the current Accounting Period with respect to the Segregated Asset Portfolio held
by the Ceding Company, calculated by the Ceding Company on a statutory basis, net of any Investment
Advisory Fees paid by the Ceding Company during the current Accounting Period, but not adjusted for
income taxes, changes in any provisions for taxes or charges for mortality and expense risks.
Namely, the Segregated Asset Portfolio held by the Ceding Company shall include those funds and any
portfolios in which the assets related to the annuities reinsured hereunder may be invested.
Notwithstanding the preceding, for purposes of administrative simplicity, a mathematical equivalent
to such accrued investment income and capital gains and losses, realized and unrealized, will be
used to determine the Modified Coinsurance Reserve Investment Credit equal to the product of (i)
times (ii), where:
(i) | equals the quota share percentage of the annuities reinsured hereunder as described in Schedule A; and | ||
(ii) | equals the net of the following: |
(a) | the Account Value, as defined in Article V, Paragraph 3, as of the end of the current Accounting Period, minus | ||
(b) | the Account Value, as defined in Article V, Paragraph 3, as of the beginning of the current Accounting Period, plus | ||
(c) | the product of (1) times [(2) minus (3) plus (4) minus (5)], where: |
(1) | equals the Ceding Company’s Internal Borrowing Rate, as defined below, as of the end of the current Accounting Period; | ||
(2) | equals 0.50 times [(A) plus (B)], where: |
(A) | equals the sum of items (ii) plus (iii), as defined in Article V, Paragraph 2, as of the beginning of the current Accounting Period; and |
Page 36 of 39
(B) | equals the sum of items (ii) plus (iii), as defined in Article V, Paragraph 2, as of the end of the current Accounting Period; |
(3) | equals the Average Account Value, as defined in Article V, Paragraph 4, for the current Accounting Period; and | ||
(4) | equals the Average Account Value, as defined in Article V, Paragraph 4, for the current Accounting Period, with respect to the general account; and | ||
(5) | equals the Average Policy Loans, as defined below, for the current Accounting Period, plus |
(d) | the product of (1) times (2), where: |
(1) | equals the interest rate collected from the policyholders on policy loans outstanding with respect to the annuities reinsured hereunder; | ||
(2) | equals the Average Policy Loans, as defined below, for the current Accounting Period, minus |
(e) | the interest credited to the policyholders on funds in the general account, including any policy loans, during the current Accounting Period with respect to the annuities reinsured hereunder, plus | ||
(f) | the Account Value, as defined in Article V, Paragraph 3, released with respect to the annuities reinsured hereunder for which Claims are paid during the current Accounting Period in accordance with Article IV, Paragraph 2, plus | ||
(g) | the Account Value, as defined in Article V, Paragraph 3, released with respect to the annuities reinsured hereunder for which Cash Surrender Values are paid during the current Accounting Period in accordance with Article IV, Paragraph 3, plus | ||
(h) | the Account Value, as defined in Article V, Paragraph 3, released with respect to the annuities reinsured hereunder for which Partial Withdrawals are paid during the current Accounting Period in accordance with Article IV, Paragraph 4, plus | ||
(i) | the Account Value, as defined in Article V, Paragraph 3, released with respect to the annuities reinsured hereunder for which Annuity Payments are paid during the current Accounting Period in accordance with Article IV, Paragraph 8, plus | ||
(j) | policy fee collected by the Ceding Company during the current Accounting Period, plus |
