pursuant to the terms hereof to the extent requested by Anchor and permitted by
all applicable laws, rules and regulations. If Anchor is unable to obtain the
consent of a third party to succeed the Initial Servicer or a Successor
Servicer, as the case may be, as Servicer, ANLIC (Hawaii) hereby reserves the
right to act as Servicer in whole or in part in accordance with the preceding
sentence. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Reinsurance Document
and without limiting the scope of duties and obligations that may be performed
by a Successor Servicer, the Successor Servicer may from time to time during
regular business hours inspect records and oversee activities of the Initial
Servicer in respect of its performance of obligations under the Reinsurance
Documents, including but not
12
limited to taking all actions and reviewing all information appropriate to
confirm compliance with the Collection Procedures, Allocation Procedures and
Fixed Account Segregated Asset Requirements and Procedures. The Servicer may,
with the prior written consent of ANLIC (Hawaii), subcontract with any other
Person to service, administer or collect the Gross Amounts Payable if such
Person is permitted to do so by all applicable laws, rules and regulations,
provided that (i) the Person with whom the Servicer so subcontracts shall not
----
become the Servicer hereunder and the Servicer shall remain liable for the
performance of the duties and obligations of the Servicer pursuant to the terms
hereof and (ii) the Initial Servicer is not required to obtain the prior written
consent of ANLIC (Hawaii) to subcontract (A) with any Affiliate of the Initial
Servicer or (B) with any other Person approved by the Department.
(b) Upon the designation of any Successor Servicer pursuant to Section
4.01(a), all authority and power of the Servicer under this Agreement in respect
of the duties and obligations to be performed by such Successor Servicer shall
pass to and be vested in a Successor Servicer (a "Service Transfer"); provided,
---------------- --------
however, that the responsibilities and duties of the Servicer under this
-------
Agreement for Collections received prior to such designation of a Successor
-------
Servicer, and the responsibilities and duties of the Servicer which the
----
Successor Servicer has not expressly agreed to perform, shall not terminate.
----
Without limitation but solely to the extent permitted by applicable law, ANLIC
--
(Hawaii) is hereby authorized and empowered (upon the failure of the Servicer to
cooperate) with full power of substitution to execute and deliver, on behalf of
the Servicer, as attorney-in-fact or otherwise, all documents and other
instruments upon the failure of the Servicer to execute or deliver such
documents or instruments, and to do and accomplish all other acts or things
necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such Service Transfer. The
Servicer agrees to cooperate with ANLIC (Hawaii) and such Successor Servicer in
effecting the termination of the responsibilities and rights of the Servicer to
conduct servicing hereunder, including the transfer to such Successor Servicer
of all authority of the Servicer to service the Gross Amounts Payable provided
for under this Agreement to the extent requested for such Service Transfer,
including all authority over all Collections that shall on the date of transfer
be held by the Servicer for deposit, or that have been deposited by the
Servicer, in the Cash Collateral Account or the Agent's Account, or that shall
thereafter be received with respect to the Charges, and in assisting the
Successor Servicer. To the extent requested by ANLIC (Hawaii) in connection
with such Service Transfer, the Servicer shall promptly at its own expense (i)
transfer its electronic records relating to the Gross Amounts Payable to the
Successor Servicer in such electronic form as the Successor Servicer may
reasonably request and (ii) transfer to the Successor Servicer copies (and, to
the extent required for enforcement, originals) of all other records,
correspondence and documents necessary for the continued servicing of the
Annuities and the Gross Amounts Payable, in the manner and at such times as the
Successor Servicer shall reasonably request. To the extent that compliance with
this Section 4.01(b) shall require the Servicer to disclose to the Successor
Servicer information of any kind that the Servicer reasonably deems to be
confidential or subject to licensing restrictions, the Successor Servicer shall
be required to enter into such customary licensing and confidentiality
agreements as the Servicer shall deem necessary to protect its interest or to
comply with the requirements of such licensing restrictions. The Initial
Servicer, however, will continue
13
at all times to prepare and furnish in accordance with the Reinsurance Documents
(1) a Reinsurance Servicer Report on or before the fifteenth (15th) Business Day
of each month and (2) all reports as and when required by Section 3.06 for ANLIC
(Hawaii) and Section 3.07 for AIC, and each Successor Servicer shall make
available to the Initial Servicer any information in the possession of such
Successor Servicer necessary for the Initial Servicer to prepare any Reinsurance
Servicer Report.
SECTION 4.02. Duties of Servicer. (a) ANLIC (Hawaii), AIC and Anchor
--------------------
hereby appoint as their agent the Servicer, from time to time designated
pursuant to Section 4.01, to perform the functions which the Servicer is to
perform under the Reinsurance Documents. The Servicer shall take or cause to be
taken all such actions as may be necessary or advisable to collect all Gross
Amounts Payable from time to time, all in accordance with applicable laws, rules
and regulations, with reasonable care and diligence, and in accordance with the
Reinsurance Documents. In addition, the Servicer shall prepare on behalf of
ANLIC (Hawaii) and AIC the annual actuarial report required Insurance Division
of the Department of Commerce & Consumer Affairs of the State of Hawaii.
(b) Except as provided in Section 4.02(c), the Servicer will cause
Anchor to deposit all Net Amounts Payable in the Cash Collateral Account (to the
extent not previously so deposited) on each Payment Date. The Servicer shall,
not later than two Business Days prior to each Payment Date, deliver to ANLIC
(Hawaii) the Reinsurance Servicer Report.
(c) Upon receipt by the Servicer of a request to do so from ANLIC
(Hawaii) stating that an event or condition has occurred and is continuing which
constitutes, or with notice or lapse of time or both would constitute, a
Servicer Remedy Event or that the claims paying rating of Anchor or the Initial
Servicer has become less than A2 by Xxxxx'x or A by S&P, the Servicer shall:
(i) cause all Charges to be identified in the Daily Reinsurance
Servicer Report in accordance with the Reinsurance Documents on each Business
Day (A) in the case of contingent deferred sales charges, on the Business Day on
which they accrue, and (B) in the case of all other Gross Amounts Payable, on
the first Business Day after they accrue,
(ii) provide to the Custodian and to the Agent on each Business Day a
Daily Reinsurance Servicer Report, and
(iii) to the extent any distribution representing M&E Fees (as defined
in the Standing Instructions) other than a distribution on a Payment Date
pursuant to a Reinsurance Servicer Report shall be received by the Initial
Servicer notwithstanding the Custodian's receipt of the notice delivered
pursuant to the Standing Instructions, return such M&E Fees to the Custodian
immediately upon receipt and, until the same are so returned, hold in trust and
segregate the same.
ANLIC (Hawaii) may require compliance with this Section 4.02(c) whether or not
ANLIC (Hawaii) shall have designated a Successor Servicer under Section 4.01.
14
(d) Upon the request of ANLIC (Hawaii) after a Servicer Default shall
have occurred and be continuing, the Initial Servicer shall deliver to the
Successor Servicer, and the Successor Servicer shall hold in trust for ANLIC
(Hawaii) in accordance with their respective interests, copies (and, to the
extent required for enforcement, originals) of all documents, instruments and
records (including computer tapes or disks) that evidence or relate to the Net
Amounts Payable.
(e) The Servicer's authorization under this Agreement shall terminate
upon the indefeasible payment in full in cash of amounts payable under the
Reinsurance Documents and receipt by ANLIC (Hawaii) and the Servicer,
respectively, of all other amounts owed to ANLIC (Hawaii) and the Servicer under
this Agreement (unless otherwise agreed by ANLIC (Hawaii) and the Servicer).
(f) No later than two Business Days prior to any Payment Date, the
Servicer shall provide to ANLIC (Hawaii) a Reinsurance Servicer Report as of the
last day of the immediately preceding calendar month.
SECTION 4.03. Rights of ANLIC (Hawaii). At any time following the
---------------------------
designation of a Servicer other than the Initial Servicer pursuant to Section
4.01 and subject at all times to compliance with applicable law:
(a) Anchor and the Initial Servicer shall, at ANLIC (Hawaii)'s request,
(i) assemble all of the documents, instruments and other records (including
computer tapes and disks) that evidence the Annuities and the Gross Amounts
Payable, or which are otherwise necessary or desirable to collect such Gross
Amounts Payable, and shall make copies (and, to the extent required for
enforcement, originals) of the same available to ANLIC (Hawaii) at a place
selected by ANLIC (Hawaii) or its designee, and (ii) promptly upon receipt,
segregate and remit all cash constituting Net Amounts Payable to ANLIC (Hawaii)
or its designee.
(b) ANLIC (Hawaii) may, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable
law, take any and all steps in Anchor's or the Initial Servicer's name and on
behalf of Anchor, the Initial Servicer and the other Anchor Parties necessary or
desirable, in the determination of ANLIC (Hawaii), to collect all amounts due in
respect of the Gross Amounts Payable.
SECTION 4.04. Responsibilities of Anchor. Anything herein to the contrary
--------------------------
notwithstanding:
(a) Anchor shall perform all of its obligations under the Annuities in
accordance with its customary practices and the exercise by ANLIC (Hawaii) of
its rights hereunder shall not relieve Anchor from such obligations or its
obligations with respect to Gross Amounts Payable.
(b) ANLIC (Hawaii) shall not have any obligation or liability with
respect to the Annuities or the Gross Amounts Payable.
(c) Anchor will deposit to the Cash Collateral Account, on each date
when such a deposit is required for the Servicer under Article IV of this
Agreement or is required pursuant to the Standing Instructions, all Net
15
Amounts Payable received from time to time by Anchor. Anchor shall not adjust,
settle or compromise the amount or payment of any Charges, release wholly or
partly the Custodian or any obligor thereunder, or allow any credit or discount
thereon, except for the Waiver Allowance.
SECTION 4.05. Further Action. (a) ANLIC (Hawaii), AIC, Anchor and the
---------------
Initial Servicer each agrees that from time to time, at its expense, it will
promptly execute and deliver all further instruments and documents, and take all
further action, that may be necessary, or that ANLIC (Hawaii) may reasonably
request, in order to, protect or more fully evidence the interests of ANLIC
(Hawaii) in the Reinsurance Documents, or to enable any of them to exercise and
enforce any of their respective rights and remedies under the Reinsurance
Documents.
ARTICLE V

irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of any State or Federal court

such party agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall
be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment
or in any other manner provided by law.
(b) Nothing in this Section 6.05 shall affect the right of any such
party to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by law or affect the
right of any such party to bring any action or proceeding against any other such

GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW
YORK.

any such commercial paper or other debt securities shall have been outstanding.
SECTION 6.08. Confidentiality. (a) The structure of the transactions
---------------
contemplated by the Reinsurance Documents (as defined in this Agreement and the
Servicing Agreement dated as of December 31, 1997 among ANLIC Insurance Company
(Hawaii), Anchor, Anchor Insurance Company (Hawaii) and SunAmerica Life
Insurance Company), any related analyses, computer models, information, tax,
legal or accounting opinions or other documents and any related written
information (collectively, "Citicorp Product Information") constitute CNAI's
------------------------------
proprietary information; provided that Citicorp Product Information shall not
--------
include any information that:
(i) is or becomes available to the public other than as a result of
disclosure by the Company Representatives, ANLIC (Hawaii), the Initial Servicer
or Anchor, or
(ii) was known by or was in the possession of ANLIC (Hawaii), the
Initial Servicer or Anchor prior to its disclosure by CNAI to ANLIC (Hawaii),
the Initial Servicer or Anchor, or
(iii) becomes available to ANLIC (Hawaii), the Initial Servicer or
Anchor on a non-confidential basis from a source not known to be bound by a
confidentiality agreement with or under other obligation of secrecy to CNAI.
(b) ANLIC (Hawaii), the Initial Servicer and Anchor agree to maintain
the confidentiality of the Citicorp Product Information (and all drafts thereof)
and not to disclose the Citicorp Product Information, directly or
19
indirectly, without CNAI's consent, other than:
(i) to their respective officers, directors, employees, agents,
attorneys, accountants and advisors ("Company Representatives"), and then only
-----------------------
on a confidential, need-to-know basis,
(ii) as required by law, rule or regulation or judicial process or
(iii) as requested or required by any state, local, federal or foreign
authority or examiner regulating insurance or reinsurance companies or banking
or otherwise having jurisdiction.
(c) ANLIC (Hawaii), the Initial Servicer and Anchor agree to use the
Citicorp Product Information only in connection with the transaction
contemplated by the Reinsurance Documents and not for any other purpose.
(d) ANLIC (Hawaii), the Initial Servicer and Anchor agree to cause the
Company Representatives and the Anchor Parties to comply with these provisions
and to be responsible for any failure of any such representatives and the Anchor
Parties so to comply.
(e) In the event that ANLIC (Hawaii), the Initial Servicer and Anchor
are requested, compelled or required (by deposition, interrogatory, request for
information or production of documents, subpoena, civil investigative demand or
similar process) to disclose any Citicorp Product Information, then ANLIC
(Hawaii), the Initial Servicer and Anchor shall, to the extent permitted by law
and reasonably practicable under the circumstances, immediately give the other
party notice of such request so that the other party may seek a protective order
or other appropriate remedy. If, in the absence of a protective order or
waiver, ANLIC (Hawaii), the Initial Servicer and Anchor are nonetheless
compelled to disclose Citicorp Product Information, ANLIC (Hawaii), the Initial
Servicer and Anchor may disclose such information without liability hereunder;
provided that ANLIC (Hawaii), the Initial Servicer and Anchor exercise
-------
reasonable efforts (at CNAI's sole cost and expense) to obtain assurance that
-------
confidential treatment will be accorded to such disclosed information. ANLIC
-
(Hawaii), the Initial Servicer and Anchor shall not oppose any action by CNAI to
-
obtain a protective order or other assurance that confidential treatment will be
accorded.
(f) The parties agree that CNAI will suffer irreparable harm from and
will not have an adequate remedy at law with respect to any breach of this
Section. In addition to all other remedies, CNAI shall be entitled to specific
performance and injunctive or other equitable relief as a remedy for any such
breach. If the Anchor Parties obtain actual knowledge of any unauthorized
disclosure of the Citicorp Product Information by any Company Representative,
the Anchor Parties shall disclose to CNAI such unauthorized disclosure.
(g) The provisions of this Section 6.08 shall survive termination of
this Agreement.
SECTION 6.09. Payments and Computations, Etc. (a) All amounts to be paid
------------------------------
or deposited by Anchor or the Servicer pursuant to the Reinsurance Documents
shall be paid or deposited in accordance with the terms hereof no
20
later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the day when due in lawful money
of the United States of America in same day funds to the Agent's Account (or,
where a Reinsurance Document so specifies, to the Cash Collateral Account) for
the account of ANLIC (Hawaii).
(b) Anchor or the Initial Servicer shall, to the extent permitted by
law, pay to ANLIC (Hawaii) interest on all amounts not paid or deposited when
due by Anchor or the Initial Servicer under the Reinsurance Documents at 2% per
annum above the Alternate Base Rate in effect from time to time, payable on
demand; provided, however, that such interest rate shall not at any time exceed
-------- -------
the maximum rate permitted by applicable law. All computations of interest and
fees hereunder shall be made on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual
number of days (including the first but excluding the last day) elapsed.
SECTION 6.10. Execution in Counterparts; Severability. This Agreement may
---------------------------------------
be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in
separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an
original and all of which when taken together shall constitute one and the same
agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this
Agreement by telecopier shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed
counterpart of this Agreement. In case any provision in or obligation under
this Agreement should be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction,
the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or
obligations, or of such provision or obligation in any other jurisdiction, shall
not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.
SECTION 6.11. Judgment. (a) If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment
--------
in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due under the Reinsurance
Documents in United States dollars into another currency, the parties hereto
agree, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, that the rate of
exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking
procedures CNAI could purchase United States dollars with such other currency in
New York on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given.
(b) The transaction contemplated by the Reinsurance Documents is an
international insurance transaction in which the specification of United States
dollars and payment in New York, New York, is of the essence, and United States
dollars shall be the currency of account in all events. The obligation of each
Anchor Party party to any Reinsurance Document in respect of any sum due from it
to any other party under any Reinsurance Document shall, notwithstanding any
judgment in a currency other than United States dollars, be discharged only to
the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by such party of any sum
adjudged to be so due in such other currency such party may in accordance with
normal banking procedures purchase United States dollars with such other
currency; if the United States dollars so purchased are less than the sum
originally due to such party in United States dollars, each Anchor Party party
to this Agreement agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such
judgment, to indemnify such party against such loss, and if the United States
dollars so purchased exceed the sum originally due to any party in United States
dollars, such party agrees to remit to such Anchor Party such excess.
21
SECTION 6.12. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF ANLIC (Hawaii), ANCHOR AND
---------------------
THE SERVICER, HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW,

REINSURANCE DOCUMENT.

their respective officers thereunto duly authorized, as of the date first above
