CLOSING MEMORANDUM AND AMENDMENTS
Pursuant to the Coinsurance Agreement effective January 1, 1998,
between Universal Life Insurance Company ("Universal") and American Capitol
Insurance Company ("American Capitol"), the Closing of the subject
reinsurance by American Capitol of the block of Universal's individual life
insurance policies as defined therein was consummated, contemporaneously
with the execution and delivery by the parties to each other of this Closing
Memorandum and Amendments, in multiple originals, in conjunction with which
the following changes, additions, amendments, and verifications are hereby
agreed to and acknowledged by the parties:
1. Closing Date
The Closing Date was changed to March 5, 1998.
2. Schedule 4.1
Schedule 4.1 was updated to March 5, 1998, and certain changes in the
composition of the assets, as well as a change in the reserve amount, were
made, a copy of which is attached hereto, being the final Schedule 4.1 used
for purposes of Closing, which supersedes all prior versions of Schedule
4.1. The reserve amount change was based on a new certification by
Universal's actuary which amount the parties agree to substitute for the
reserve amount shown in Universal's 1997 Annual Statement previously filed,
but to have the same effect as though such substituted amount had been
entered by Universal in its 1997 Annual Statement. The agreement by the
parties to use the attached Schedule 4.1 does not modify or alter any of the
agreements, covenants and warranties in the Coinsurance Agreement and
documents related thereto (including the Administrative Services Agreement,
the Master Assignment of Notes and Liens, Mortgage Portfolio Administrative
Services Agreement, and the Arbitration Agreement), which were executed and
delivered by the parties at or before Closing. Attached to Schedule 4.1 is
a revised listing of the mortgage notes transferred as part of the assets.
The mortgage documents contain certain errors and deficiencies which are to
be cured in keeping with covenants and warranties contained in applicable
documents. Any errors in the computations of amounts contained in Schedule
4.1 that are plainly computation errors are subject to correction, if
needed. The amount of the reserves is subject to Universal's warranties as
stated in the Coinsurance Agreement, to be audited in due course by American
Capitol.
3. Transfer of Assets
The parties recognize that American Capitol has reinsured the subject
policies with Republic-Vanguard Life Insurance Company and certain of the
assets listed in Schedule 4.1 and transferred at Closing to American Capitol
are in fact transferred directly to Republic-Vanguard by Universal pursuant
to authorization and instruction from American Capitol, to-wit, the cash and
book-entry bonds, and such transfer by Universal to Republic-Vanguard has
the same effect as if such assets so transferred had been transferred by
Universal to American Capitol.
4. Acknowledged Receipt
American Capitol acknowledges having received the assets listed on Schedule
4.1 from Universal, subject to such audits, verifications, agreements,
covenants and warranties stated in the applicable agreement documents, and
subject to the prompt consummation of the transfer of the book-entry bonds
(to be transferred to Republic-Vanguard pursuant to Universal's
instructions) and wire transfer of cash to Republic-Vanguard pursuant to
Universal's instructions.
5. Equipment and List of Policies
The parties acknowledge that the equipment list (hardware used for
processing and servicing of the policies as set forth in the Coinsurance
Agreement) has been discussed, is still under review, and is subject to such
additions as the parties agree upon. Similarly, the list of policies being
coinsured and delivered by Universal at Closing has been determined to be
subject to such changes as may result from a final reconciliation of the in
force policy list as of December 31, 1998, which the parties agree to pursue
diligently to completion.
6. Amendment of Master Assignment of Notes and Liens
The second sentence of the Master Assignment of Notes and Liens, beginning
with "The Notes are secured ..." and ending with "... a part hereof" is
hereby amended to read instead as follows: "The Notes are secured by deeds
of trust (herein called the "Security Documents") described on Exhibit A
under the Register Numbers indicated thereon and recorded in the Register's
office of Shelby County, Tennessee (or other applicable jurisdiction, as the
case may be).
The principal payments received on the Notes since December 31, 1997,
referred to in Section 1 (d), have been accounted for and settled as part of
the cash item in Schedule 4.1.
Section 1, 15 is amended by inserting at the beginning of the sentence: To
the best of Assignor's knowledge,...."
In each case in which reference is made to Assignor's obligation to endorse
a Note or other assignment document, Assignor may, in lieu thereof, make
such endorsement by executing and delivering an allonge or other acceptable
short form assignment of the Notes and Deeds of Trust, in recordable form,
sufficient to effect transfer of record of the ownership of such Notes and
Deeds of Trust described on Exhibit A. Similarly, in respect to Assignee's
obligation to make such endorsements upon the occasion of transferring the
Notes and Deeds of Trust back to Assignor, Assignee my use an allonge or
other acceptable short from assignment instrument as above allowed to
Assignor.
References to Exhibit B are hereby deleted or changed to Exhibit A as
appropriate, in that all required descriptions of the Notes and Deeds of
Trust are contained on Exhibit A.
7. No Oral or Other Amendments
Except as stated in this Closing Memorandum and Amendments and the February
27, 1998, letter agreement between the parties, there are, as of the
Closing, no amendments or modifications, written or oral, to the Coinsurance
Agreement and related documents which are identified herein.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties execute and deliver to each other this
Closing Memorandum in multiple originals by their duly authorized officers
on this 5th day of March, 1998.
