1006844591v17

keeping fees, stable value wrap fees, policy loan fees, mortality and expense risk charges, administrative expense charges, administrative service fees, rider charges, contract maintenance charges, back-end sales loads and other considerations billed separately, and amounts for the pre- tax amount of any expense reimbursement (other than “soft dollars”), indemnification, revenue-sharing or other payments made to the Ceding Company or its Affiliates by any mutual fund organization, bank or other third party attributable to the use of such organization’s investment funds as funding vehicles to the extent related to the Reinsured Policies;

To the extent that the Ceding Company recovers any Additional Consideration from any third party attributable to the Reinsured Policies, the Ceding Company shall promptly transfer such amounts to the Reinsurer, together with any pertinent information that the Ceding Company may have relating thereto. Direct receipt by the Reinsurer, including in its role as Administrator under the Administrative Services Agreement, or any of its Affiliates of any such amounts shall satisfy the Ceding Company’s obligations to transfer any such amount to the Reinsurer hereunder.

(c)The Ceding Company acknowledges that the Reinsurer intends to, and agrees that the Reinsurer is permitted to, assign to an Affiliate of Reinsurer the Reinsurer’s rights, title and interest in any non-insurance Additional Consideration, provided that such assignment shall terminate automatically upon any recapture effectuated hereunder.

(d)The Parties intend the Ceding Company’s assignment pursuant to Section 4.3(a) to be a present assignment of all of the Ceding Company’s rights, title and interest and not an assignment as collateral. However, to the extent that such assignment is not recognized as a


- 15 -


1006844591v17

present assignment, is not valid or is recharacterized as a pledge rather than a lawful conveyance to the Reinsurer, the Ceding Company does hereby grant to the Reinsurer a security interest in all of the Ceding Company’s right, title and interest (legal, equitable or otherwise), if any, to all Additional Consideration (and any bank account, lockbox or other account set up for the receipt of Additional Consideration after the Effective Time) (the “Collateral”) to secure the Ceding Company’s obligations under this Agreement. All costs and expenses incurred in connection with obtaining a first priority perfected security interest shall be borne by the Reinsurer.

(e)The Ceding Company shall execute and deliver and the Reinsurer is authorized to execute and deliver any and all financing statements reasonably requested by the Reinsurer in order to perfect the Reinsurer’s title and security interest under Article 9 of the UCC to any and all Collateral, and the Ceding Company shall do such further acts and things as the Reinsurer may reasonably request in order that the security interest granted hereunder may be maintained as a first perfected security interest. All out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees) incurred in connection with making any such filings or any other action in connection therewith requested by the Reinsurer shall be borne by the Reinsurer.

(f)Upon the failure of the Ceding Company to remit any Additional Consideration to the Reinsurer, which failure is not caused by the Reinsurer and remains uncured ten (10) days after written notice thereof is received by the Ceding Company, the Reinsurer shall have, in addition to all other rights under this Agreement or under applicable Law, the following rights:

(i)the right to exercise all rights and remedies granted a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code, as said code has been enacted in the State of New York or any other applicable jurisdiction (the “UCC”), as though all the Collateral constituted property subject to a security interest under Article 9 thereof;

(ii)the right to set-off;

(iii)without giving rise to any right of double recovery under this Section 4.3 and Section 9.2, the right to reasonable attorney’s fees incurred in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement or in connection with the disposition of the Collateral; and

(iv)the right to dispose of the Collateral in accordance with the UCC and in a commercially reasonable manner.

(g)This Sections 4.3 is being included in this Agreement to ensure that, if an insolvency or other court determines that, notwithstanding the provisions of this Agreement and the express intent of the Parties, the Ceding Company retained ownership of or any rights in the Collateral, the Reinsurer’s rights to the Collateral are protected with a first priority, perfected security interest, and it is the intent of the Parties that this Section 4.3 be interpreted as such.

Section 4.4. Contract Administration. For so long as the Administrative Services Agreement remains in effect, the Reinsurer shall administer the Reinsured Policies, the Stable Value Wrap Agreements and the Separate Accounts directly on behalf of the Ceding Company, in each instance in accordance with the terms of the Administrative Services Agreement;

Section 4.6. Guaranty Association Assessments, Escheat and Unclaimed Property Liabilities and Premium Taxes.

Other than with respect to Reinsured Policies to the extent related to the Commingled Separate Accounts (excluding the Specified Commingled Separate Account), the Ceding Company shall (x) set such Non-Guaranteed Elements taking into account the recommendations of the Reinsurer and (y) accept and promptly implement all recommendations of the Reinsurer with respect to such Non-Guaranteed Elements so long as the recommendations comply and are consistent with applicable Law, applicable actuarial standards of practice and the terms of such Reinsured Policies. The Reinsurer shall indemnify and hold harmless the Ceding Company for any Losses arising out of the Ceding Company’s implementation of any such recommendations of the Reinsurer.

Section 4.8. Offset. Any undisputed debits or credits incurred in favor of or against either the Ceding Company or the Reinsurer under or with respect to this Agreement are deemed mutual debits or credits and may be set off, and only the net balance shall be allowed or paid, regardless of any insolvency, rehabilitation, conservatorship or comparable proceeding by or against the Ceding Company or the Reinsurer. Such right shall apply to the full extent permitted under the laws of the state of domicile of the insolvent party. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, each Party acknowledges and agrees that it shall have no right hereunder or pursuant to applicable Law to offset any amounts due or owing (or to become due or owing) to the other Party under this Agreement against any amounts due or owing by such other Party or any of its Affiliates under the Master Transaction Agreement or any other Ancillary Agreements or any other agreement, contract or understanding.

(b)In addition, as soon as is practicable, but not more than ten (10) Business Days following the date on which the Reinsurer becomes aware of the occurrence of an FMV Event or Reserve Credit Event that is continuing (unless the Ceding Company shall agree to a longer period, then by the end of such longer period), the Reinsurer shall deposit additional assets consisting of Authorized Investments in the Trust Account sufficient to ensure that the aggregate Fair Market Value of the Authorized Investments in the Trust Account is not less than the Required Balance as of the last day of the immediately prior Accounting Period.

(c)The report required to be delivered by the Reinsurer as described in Section 5.7(a) shall include a listing of each asset in the Trust Account and the Fair Market Value and Book Value of each such asset as of the end of the relevant Accounting Period and indicate if any such asset is not an Authorized Investment. In the event that the Ceding Company disagrees with the calculation of the Fair Market Value or Book Value of any Authorized Investment or whether any asset is an Authorized Investment as set forth in such report, the Ceding Company may deliver written notice to the Reinsurer of such disagreement within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of such report and the Parties shall attempt in good faith to resolve such disagreement. Any resolution agreed to in writing by the Parties shall be final and binding upon the Parties. If the Parties are unable to resolve any disagreement as to the calculation of the Fair Market Value or Book Value, as applicable, of any Authorized Investment or whether any asset is an Authorized Investment within ten (10) Business Days after the Ceding Company delivers written notice of any such disagreement to the Reinsurer, the Parties shall jointly request the


- 24 -


1006844591v17

Independent Accounting Firm to determine the Fair Market Value or Book Value, as applicable, of the disputed Authorized Investment or whether the disputed asset is an Authorized Investment as of the relevant date. The Independent Accounting Firm’s determination of the Fair Market Value or Book Value, as applicable, of the disputed Authorized Investment or whether the disputed asset is an Authorized Investment shall be final and binding upon the Parties. Each Party shall pay one-half of the Independent Accounting Firm’s fees, costs and expenses associated with the Independent Accounting Firm’s determination. After a final and binding resolution of any dispute described in this Section 5.7(c) is reached, the Parties agree to make any necessary adjustments under Section 5.7(a) so that the aggregate Fair Market Value or Book Value, as applicable, of the Authorized Investments held in the Trust Account is not less than the amount required pursuant to Section 5.7(a)(i), (ii) or (iii), as applicable.

Section 5.8. Termination of Trust Account. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if, in the absence of a Triggering Event, the report required to be delivered by the Reinsurer as described in Section 5.7(a) demonstrates that the Required Balance is less than or equal to [REDACTED], then (a) the Reinsurer and the Ceding Company shall promptly deliver a joint notice to the Trustee to terminate the Trust Account and (b) the Reinsurer shall have no further obligation to maintain any asset in the Trust Account pursuant to this Agreement.

ARTICLE VI. OVERSIGHTS; COOPERATION

Section 6.1. Oversights. Inadvertent delays, oversights, errors or omissions made in

connection with this Agreement or any transaction hereunder shall not relieve either Party from any liability that would have attached had such delay, oversight, error or omission not occurred. The Parties shall nevertheless cooperate in good faith to rectify such delay, oversight, error or omission as soon as possible after discovery so that both Parties shall be restored as closely as possible to the positions they would have occupied if no delay, oversight, error or omission had occurred.

Section 6.2. Cooperation. The Ceding Company and the Reinsurer shall cooperate with each other in order to accomplish the objectives of this Agreement by furnishing additional information and executing and delivering any additional documents as may be reasonably requested by the other to further perfect or evidence the consummation of, or otherwise implement, any transaction contemplated by this Agreement, the Master Transaction Agreement or any other Ancillary Agreements, or to aid in the preparation of any regulatory filing or financial statement; provided, however, that any such additional documents must be reasonably satisfactory to each Party and not impose upon either Party any material liability, risk, obligation, loss, cost or expense not contemplated by this Agreement, the Master Transaction Agreement or the other Ancillary Agreements.

ARTICLE VII. INSOLVENCY

Section 7.1. Insolvency of the Ceding Company. In the event of the Insolvency of the

Ceding Company, all reinsurance provided hereunder shall be payable by the Reinsurer to the Ceding Company on the basis of the liability of the Ceding Company under the Reinsured Policies without diminution because of such Insolvency. Payments by the Reinsurer, as set forth in this Section 7.1, shall be made directly to the Ceding Company or to its Receiver, except where the Reinsurer, with the consent of the direct insured, has elected to assume the policy obligations of the Ceding Company as direct obligations of the Reinsurer to the payees under a Reinsured Policy and in substitution for the obligations of the Ceding Company to the payees. If the Reinsurer elects to make such payment in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence, it shall make payments directly to the Policyholder and the Reinsurer shall be deemed to have all the rights of the Ceding Company to the extent of such payment. Any payment by the Reinsurer under this Section 7.1 shall be, to the extent of the payment, in substitution, satisfaction and discharge of the Reinsurer’s obligation to the Ceding Company or its Receiver and the Ceding Company’s obligation under the subject Reinsured Policies, and nothing herein shall subject the Reinsurer to liability for duplicative payment of Policy Liabilities reinsured hereunder. The Receiver of the insolvent Ceding Company shall give written notice to the Reinsurer of the pendency of a claim against the Ceding Company on any Reinsured Policy within a reasonable period of time after such claim is filed in the insolvency proceeding, and during the pendency of such claim, the Reinsurer may investigate such claim and interpose, at its own expense, in the proceeding where such claim is to be adjudicated any defense or defenses which it may deem available to the Ceding Company or its Receiver. The expense thus incurred by the Reinsurer will be chargeable, subject to court approval, against the Ceding Company as part of the expenses of liquidation to the extent of a proportionate share of the benefit which may accrue to the Ceding Company solely as a result of the defense undertaken by the Reinsurer.

Section 7.2. Insolvency of the Reinsurer. In the event of the Insolvency of the Reinsurer, all amounts due but not paid to the Reinsurer by the Ceding Company on such date under this Agreement and all amounts which become due to the Reinsurer by the Ceding Company after that date under this Agreement, may be retained by the Ceding Company and set off against the amounts due by the Reinsurer under this Agreement; provided that the balance, if any, shall be payable by the Ceding Company to the Reinsurer in connection with the Net Settlement for any Accounting Period under this Agreement.

ARTICLE VIII. DURATION; RECAPTURE

Section 8.1. Duration. This Agreement shall continue in force until such time as (i) the

Ceding Company’s Liability arising out of or related to all Reinsured Policies is terminated in accordance with their respective terms and each Party has received payments which discharge the other Party’s Liabilities incurred hereunder prior to such termination, (ii) in accordance with Section 8.3(a), if the Ceding Company has elected to recapture the reinsurance of Reinsured Policies in full, and the payment obligations described in Section 8.4 have been discharged in


- 26 -


1006844591v17

full in accordance with Section 8.4, (iii) the Parties mutually consent in writing to terminate this Agreement, which writing shall set forth the effective date of termination or (iv) in accordance with Section 8.3(b), if the Reinsurer has elected to terminate this Agreement and the payment obligations described in Section 8.4 have been discharged in full in accordance with Section 8.4.

Section 8.2. Survival. Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Article VIII, the terms and conditions of Articles I, VIII, IX and X and the provisions of Article XII to the extent relating thereto shall remain in full force and effect after the termination of this Agreement.

Section 8.3. Recapture.

(a)Upon the occurrence and continuation of a Triggering Event, the Ceding Company shall have the right (but not the obligation) to recapture all, and not less than all, of the reinsurance ceded under this Agreement, by providing the Reinsurer with written notice of its intent to effect recapture within one hundred eighty (180) days of the occurrence of such Triggering Event if such Triggering Event is continuing as of the date the Ceding Company provides notice of recapture. Recapture of the Reinsured Policies shall be effective on the tenth (10th) day following the day on which the Ceding Company has provided the Reinsurer with such notice or such later day within three (3) months following the date of such notice as set forth in the Ceding Company recapture notice (the “Recapture Date”). Upon a recapture by the Ceding Company, the Ceding Company will only recapture the Reinsured Risks and will not be liable for any Reinsurer Extra-Contractual Obligations.

(b)If the Ceding Company fails to timely pay any undisputed amounts due under this Agreement in excess of [REDACTED] in the aggregate and such failure continues for thirty (30) days after written notice thereof from the Reinsurer (a “Termination Event”), the Reinsurer shall have the right (but not the obligation) to terminate this Agreement by providing the Ceding Company with written notice of its intent to terminate within one hundred eighty (180) days of the occurrence of such Termination Event if such Termination Event is continuing as of the date the Reinsurer provides notice of termination. Any such termination of this Agreement shall be effective on the tenth (10th) day following the day on which the Reinsurer has provided the Ceding Company with such notice or such later day within three (3) months following the date of such notice, which shall be deemed the Recapture Date. Upon a termination by the Reinsurer, the Ceding Company shall recapture all of the outstanding reinsurance ceded under this Agreement.

(c)Following a recapture or termination pursuant to this Section 8.3, subject to the satisfaction of payment obligations described in Section 8.4, both the Ceding Company and the Reinsurer will be fully and finally released from all rights and obligations under this Agreement in respect of the Reinsured Policies, other than (i) any payment obligations due hereunder prior to the Recapture Date but still unpaid on such date, to the extent not settled as part of the Terminal Settlement, (ii) the Reinsurer Extra-Contractual Obligations as provided in Section 8.3(a) above and (iii) the obligations under the provisions that expressly survive termination as provided in Section 8.2. Following the consummation of the recapture, no additional Premiums or other amounts payable under such Reinsured Policies shall be payable to the Reinsurer hereunder, nor shall the Reinsurer have any further right to receive any other Additional Consideration nor shall the Reinsurer have any obligation with respect to payment of


- 27 -


1006844591v17

claims, reinsurance of Reinsured Risks or any other obligations whatsoever under this Agreement, in each case, except as provided in this Section 8.3(c). Notwithstanding the foregoing, a recapture or termination pursuant to this Section 8.3 will not affect unpaid obligations or Liabilities due under the Master Transaction Agreement or any of the other Ancillary Agreements. Upon a recapture or termination pursuant to this Section 8.3, the Additional Consideration shall be automatically re-sold, re-assigned, re-transferred and re- delivered to the Ceding Company, effective as of the Recapture Date and all of the Reinsurer’s right, title and interest in the Additional Consideration and the security interest granted pursuant to Section 4.3 shall be automatically released, in each case, without the need for any action on the part of the Parties.

(d)Notwithstanding the remedies contemplated by this Article VIII, the Master Transaction Agreement or the other Ancillary Agreements, the Ceding Company may, in its sole discretion, require direct payment by the Reinsurer of any sum in default under this Agreement, the Master Transaction Agreement or any other Ancillary Agreement in lieu of exercising the remedies in Article VIII, and it shall be no defense to any such claim that the Ceding Company might have had other recourse.

Section 8.4. Recapture Payments.

(a)In connection with a recapture or termination pursuant to Section 8.3, the Reinsurer shall prepare a settlement statement within fifteen (15) calendar days after the Recapture Date (the “Terminal Settlement Statement”) setting forth the terminal settlement calculated in accordance with Schedule 8.4 (the “Terminal Settlement”). The Ceding Company shall provide to the Reinsurer such assistance, information and documents as may be reasonably requested by the Reinsurer in preparing such calculation. If the amount of the Terminal Settlement is positive, the Ceding Company shall pay such amount to the Reinsurer within five

(5)Business Days of its receipt of the Terminal Settlement Statement. If the amount of the Terminal Settlement is negative, the Reinsurer shall pay to the Ceding Company cash and transfer assets (including assets held in the Trust Account, which the Reinsurer shall be entitled to withdraw solely for such purpose) with an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the absolute value of such amount at the time it delivers the Terminal Settlement Statement to the Ceding Company. In connection with such recapture or termination, if the Reinsurer has failed to timely pay the Ceding Company any portion of a Terminal Settlement due to the Ceding Company, the Ceding Company shall be entitled to withdraw assets in the Trust Account based on their Fair Market Value to satisfy such undisputed and unpaid amount of the Terminal Settlement. If, after giving effect to any payments of cash or assets by the Reinsurer to the Ceding Company pursuant to this Section 8.4(a), the Fair Market Value of assets in the Trust Account is not sufficient to discharge the Reinsurer’s obligations hereunder with respect to any remaining portion of a Terminal Settlement due to the Ceding Company, the Reinsurer shall immediately pay to the Ceding Company cash in the amount of such deficiency. In addition, following the Terminal Settlement, the Trust Account shall be terminated and any remaining amounts or amount held in trust pursuant to Article V shall be released to the Reinsurer after the full satisfaction of the Terminal Settlement pursuant to the Terminal Settlement Statement.

(b)In the event that the Ceding Company disagrees with the calculation of the Terminal Settlement, the Ceding Company shall within ten (10) Business Days after its receipt of


- 28 -


1006844591v17

such report deliver written notice to the Reinsurer of such disagreement, together with reasonable supporting detail concerning the disagreement, and the Parties shall attempt in good faith to resolve such disagreement. Any resolution agreed to in writing by the Parties shall be final and binding upon the Parties. If the Parties are unable to resolve any disagreement within ten (10) Business Days after the Ceding Company delivers written notice of any such disagreement to the Reinsurer, the Parties shall jointly request the Independent Accounting Firm to determine the Terminal Settlement in the manner provided in Section 2.7 of the Master Transaction Agreement with respect to disputed items under a Notice of Disagreement (as defined in the Master Transaction Agreement), mutatis mutandis. The Independent Accounting Firm’s determination of the Terminal Settlement shall be final and binding upon the Parties. Each Party shall pay one- half of the Independent Accounting Firm’s fees, costs and expenses associated with the Independent Accounting Firm’s determination. After a final and binding resolution of any dispute described in this Section 8.4(b) is reached, the Parties agree to make any necessary adjustments under Section 8.4(a).

ARTICLE X. DAC TAX

Section 10.1. DAC Tax Election. To the extent that Section 848 of the Code and

corresponding Regulation 1.848-2 are applicable to the Reinsured Policies, the Ceding Company and Reinsurer hereby make the joint election provided for in Regulation 1.848-2(g)(8) and agree as follows:

(a)The Party with the net positive consideration for this Agreement for each taxable year shall capitalize specified policy acquisition expenses with respect to this Agreement without regard to the general deductions limitation of Code Section 848(c)(1);

(b)Both Parties shall 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;

(c)The Ceding Company shall submit a schedule to the Reinsurer by May 1 of each year presenting its calculation of the net consideration for the preceding taxable year. The Reinsurer may contest the calculation in writing within thirty (30) days of receipt of the Ceding Company’s schedule by providing an alternative calculation to the Ceding Company in writing. If the Reinsurer does not so notify the Ceding Company, the Reinsurer shall report the net consideration as determined by the Ceding Company in the Reinsurer’s tax return for the previous calendar year. If the Reinsurer contests the Ceding Company’s calculation of the net consideration, the parties shall act in good faith to reach an agreement as to the correct amount within thirty (30) days of the date the Reinsurer submits its alternative calculation. Any differences shall be resolved between the parties so that consistent amounts are reported on the respective tax returns for the preceding taxable year;

(d)This election to capitalize specified policy acquisition expenses without regard to the general deductions limitation is effective for all taxable years during which this Agreement remains in effect; and

(e)Both Parties agree to make such election by timely attaching to their federal income Tax Returns the schedule contemplated by Treasury Regulation Section 1.848- 2(g)(8)(ii).

Section 10.2. Definitions. As used in this Article X, the terms “net consideration,” “net positive consideration,” “specified policy acquisition expenses,” and “general deductions limitation” are defined by reference to Treasury Regulation Section 1.848-2 and Code Section 848.

ARTICLE XI.

OPTION LETTERS; ASSUMPTION CERTIFICATES; NOVATION

Section 11.1. Novation. The Reinsurer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to pursue novation of all of the Reinsured Policies (giving priority to the novation of the Reinsured


- 30 -


1006844591v17

Policies in the Commingled Separate Accounts) until the third (3rd) anniversary of the Inception Date. For the avoidance of doubt, Reinsurer’s obligations to use such commercially reasonable efforts shall not require the Reinsurer to pursue novations of any such group of Reinsured Policies with respect to which the applicable policy form has not been provided to the Reinsurer at such time or any Reinsured Policies associated with registered Separate Accounts. The Parties acknowledge and agree that it is their objective that such novations be effective no later than the second (2nd) anniversary of the Inception Date. Each Party shall bear one-half of the fees, costs and expenses associated with the Reinsurer’s efforts to pursue novation of all of the Reinsured Policies pursuant to this Article XI. The Reinsurer may manage the novation process so as to ensure that the Reinsured Policies are novated to the Reinsurer only once the requisite systems are in place in order to reflect the Novated Contracts on the books and records of the Reinsurer in accordance with the migration processes and related time periods contemplated by the Transitional Services Agreement (as defined in the Master Transaction Agreement). Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Reinsurer shall have no obligation to pursue novation of any such Reinsured Policies that confer rights on participants such that participant consent would be reasonably required for novation by the terms of such Reinsured Policies or applicable Law.

Section 11.2. Licenses; Regulatory Approvals for Novation.

(a)Following the Effective Time until the third (3rd) anniversary of the Inception Date, the Reinsurer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all material licenses, permits and authorizations required under applicable Law to qualify the Reinsurer to transact the FSS Business in each state where any Reinsured Policies are in force as of the Effective Time.

(b)Following the Effective Time until the third (3rd) anniversary of the Inception Date, the Reinsurer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all required regulatory approvals, including approval of the requisite form and rate filings, from each applicable Governmental Entity to assume by novation the Reinsured Policies (effective as of their inception) including all of the Ceding Company’s liabilities and obligations under each such Reinsured Policy, in order to ensure that such liabilities and obligations are solely, directly and exclusively vested in the Reinsurer.

(c)Each Party shall cooperate fully with the other in all reasonable respects in order to effectuate the novation and assumption of the Reinsured Policies as set forth in this Article XI.

Section 11.3. Option Letter.

(a)Subject to Section 11.1 and Section 11.3(b), the Reinsurer, promptly following receipt of the requisite approvals of applicable Governmental Entities, shall transmit by mail to every Required Party an option letter (the “Option Letter”), together with a Notice and Certificate of Assumption, including, where required as reasonably determined by the Reinsurer, a form for rejection or acceptance, as permitted by applicable Law, and a self-addressed return envelope (the “Notice and Certificate of Assumption”). Option Letters and Notices and Certificates of Assumption shall not be sent with respect to a Reinsured Policy unless and until all requisite approvals of applicable Governmental Entities have been received with respect to such Reinsured Policy, including approval of the requisite form and rate filings.


- 31 -


1006844591v17

(b)Subject to the receipt of the requisite regulatory approvals and applicable Law, the Reinsurer may, at its option, in lieu of transmission of an Option Letter to a Required Party by mail, effect such transmission by electronic mail to an appropriately confirmed electronic mail address for the Required Party, or in the alternative, by any other method allowed under applicable Law.

(c)The Reinsurer and the Ceding Company shall in good faith agree to modify the procedures set forth in this Section 11.3 on a state-by-state basis to the extent required to conform to any procedures for novation and assumption of Reinsured Policies imposed or required by the applicable Governmental Entity or as reasonably requested by the Reinsurer.

(d)Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, with respect to the classes of Required Parties described on Schedule 11.3(d) or as reasonably determined by the Reinsurer, the Option Letter, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, may be accompanied by a form for rejection, and a self-addressed return envelope, and the Reinsurer shall not be required to seek affirmative consent from such Required Parties, unless required by applicable Law as reasonably determined by the Reinsurer.

(e)The Ceding Company shall cooperate in any actions taken by the Reinsurer in connection with this Article XI.

Section 11.4. Novated Contracts. Reinsured Policies satisfying all of the requirements for novation and assumption under Section 11.3 and applicable Law shall be assumed by the Reinsurer on the applicable Assumption Date and shall be deemed to have been assumed by novation. Such contracts shall cease to be deemed “Reinsured Policies”, shall thenceforth not be deemed indemnity coinsured under Article II hereof and shall be defined herein as “Novated Contracts”. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that (a) a Required Party rejects or fails to provide any consent required by applicable Law to the novation of a Reinsured Policy as reasonably determined by the Reinsurer or (b) a Novated Contract is determined by appropriate Governmental Entities or a court of competent jurisdiction to be not novated from the Ceding Company to the Reinsurer (including, but not limited to, jurisdictions requiring the Policyholder’s affirmative consent for novation where the Policyholder either did not or refused to provide such consent), then in the case of either of (a) or (b), such Novated Contract shall for all purposes of this Agreement be deemed, retroactive to the Effective Time, to be a Reinsured Policy and such novation shall be null and void and of no effect. For the avoidance of doubt, the Reinsured Risks for each such Novated Contract that is deemed to be a Reinsured Policy in accordance with the foregoing shall be deemed assumed by the Reinsurer retroactive to the Effective Time for all purposes of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, such retroactive treatment of any Novated Contract that is deemed a Reinsured Policy shall not result in a default with respect to any payments in connection with a prior Net Settlement or Modco Reserve Adjustment process or any prior funding or withdrawal obligations or rights hereunder with respect to the Trust Account; provided, that any appropriate adjustments will be addressed in the next succeeding Net Settlement, Modco Reserve Adjustment and Trust Account adjustment processes in accordance with Sections 4.10 and 5.7. For each Novated Contract, the date of assumption shall be the later of (i) the date of assumption set forth in the relevant form of Option Letter with respect to the applicable Reinsured Policy or (ii) the date on which all required consents and approvals of all Governmental Entities and Required Parties with respect


- 32 -


1006844591v17

to the applicable Reinsured Policy have actually been received and all other requirements and conditions for novation and assumption have been satisfied (the “Assumption Date”). All Reinsured Policies not novated by the Reinsurer shall remain Reinsured Policies of the Company.

Section 11.5. Effect of Assumption. Upon the satisfaction of all requirements for the novation and assumption of a Reinsured Policy, the Ceding Company shall be deemed to have assigned and transferred all of its rights relating to such Novated Contract as of the Assumption Date and the Reinsurer shall be deemed to have assumed and accepted all of the risks, liabilities and obligations under or arising out of the applicable Novated Contract, whether arising prior, on or subsequent to the applicable Assumption Date. The Reinsurer hereby agrees that it shall be directly and solely liable for such risks, liabilities and obligations. On each Assumption Date, the Reinsurer shall assume all risks, liabilities and obligations under or arising out of the applicable Novated Contract such that the Reinsurer shall be considered and deemed the original party in lieu of the Ceding Company, from the inception date of the applicable Reinsured Policy. The Novated Contracts shall continue and remain in full force and effect, except as modified by the Notice and Certificate of Assumption. For the avoidance of doubt, a Novated Contract shall not constitute the creation of a new contract or the termination of the applicable Reinsured Policy; rather, such Novated Contract shall be considered and deemed a continuation of the existing contract as if the Reinsurer were the original party in lieu of the Ceding Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that such assignment, transfer and assumption shall not affect any indemnification rights of the parties pursuant to Article IX, or any other indemnification or right to recovery provided to a party under any other agreement. Promptly after assumption by the Reinsurer of any Novated Contracts, the Ceding Company shall deliver original books and records that relate to such Novated Contracts to the Reinsurer to the extent required by applicable Law. Upon the assumption by the Reinsurer of any Novated Contract of if any Reinsured Policy is otherwise renewed, replaced or otherwise transitioned to a policy issued by the Reinsurer or its Affiliates on their respective policy forms, (a) the Required Balance shall be adjusted in the next succeeding report to be delivered by the Reinsurer under Section 5.7 to reflect the removal of such Reinsured Policy, and the portion of the assets held in the Trust Account relating to such Novated Contract or former Reinsured Policy shall be released from the Trust Account and transferred to the Reinsurer and (ii) if such Novated Contract or former Reinsured Policy has Separate Account Liabilities, the Ceding Company shall transfer to the appropriate separate account of the Reinsurer the assets of the Separate Account which support any Separate Account Liabilities arising under such Novated Contract or former Reinsured Policy.

ARTICLE XII. GENERAL PROVISIONS
