COMMUTATION CONSIDERATION
Section 3.1. Commutation Consideration. Notwithstanding anything contained

Parties' commutation of the Commuted Business, the Reinsurer shall transfer to
the Company the policy loans included in the Commuted Business and outstanding
as of the Effective Time and assets determined in accordance with Schedule 3
(the "Commutation Consideration") with an aggregate Statutory Book Value,
including investment income due, accrued and unearned, as of the Effective Time
equal to the sum of (i) the Net Statutory General Account Reserves as of the
Effective Time attributable to the Commuted Business minus (if positive) or
plus (if negative) the absolute value of (ii) the amount of the final
settlement in respect of the Commuted Business determined in accordance with
Article V of the General Account Reinsurance Agreement and Article IV of the
Variable Life Reinsurance Agreement for the period ending on March 31, 2014
(the "Commutation Amount"). The Commutation Amount shall be determined, and the

5
(a) As of the Effective Time, the Reinsurer shall transfer to the Company
all liability for the interest maintenance reserve that is attributable to the
Commuted Business at the point in time immediately prior to the consummation of
the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, as well as any liability for
the interest maintenance reserve that is attributable to the Commuted Business
that is created following the Effective Time, in each case determined in
accordance with the Commutation Accounting Principles. The interest maintenance
reserve liability that is so attributable to the Commuted Business as of the
Effective Time shall be determined pursuant to Section 3.3 and shall be
reflected in the Final Commutation Balance Sheet.
(b) In addition to the Commutation Amount, all account balances (both assets
and liabilities) related to the Commuted Business and ceded by the Company to
the Reinsurer under the Subject Reinsurance Agreements (other than (i) those
that are reflected in Net Statutory General Account Reserves and (ii) the
liability for interest maintenance reserve related to the Commuted Business)
will be transferred from the Reinsurer to the Company (the "Commutation
Balances") as of the Effective Time. The Commutation Balances shall be
determined in accordance with the Commutation Accounting Principles and shall
be paid in accordance with Section 3.3. Such Commutation Balances shall
include, but are not limited to, uncollected premiums and agents' balances,
deferred premiums, policyholder dividends, premiums received in advance,
commissions due and accrued, commissions and expense allowances on reinsurance

to the extent attributable to the Commuted Business. The Commutation Balances
shall also include amounts in respect of the Commuted Business that are paid to
or received by the Reinsurer on behalf of the Company after the Effective Time
but prior to the Commutation Closing Date. Upon transfer of these Commutation
Balances, a net reinsurance recoverable or a reinsurance payable will be
recorded by the Company in respect of the Commutation Balances (the "Net
Commutation Balances Amount"). The Net Commutation Balances Amount shall be
determined, settled and adjusted by the Reinsurer or the Company, as
applicable, pursuant to Section 3.3.
Section 3.3. Pre-Closing and Post-Closing Payments.
(a) On the Commutation Closing Date but in any case prior to the Closing,
the Reinsurer shall transfer to the Company all policy loans, investment
assets, cash and other assets selected in accordance with Schedule 3 and
included in the Commutation Consideration having an aggregate Statutory Book
Value, including investment income due, accrued and unearned, as of the
Effective Time equal to the sum of the Estimated Commutation Amount and the
estimated Net Commutation Balances Amount (the "Estimated Settlement Amount")
set forth in the Estimated Commutation Statement prepared by the Reinsurer and
previously delivered to the Company and Buyer pursuant to the terms of
Section 2.4 of the Stock Purchase Agreement. In order to effectuate the
transfer of such investment assets, cash or other assets, the Reinsurer and the
Company shall execute an omnibus assignment agreement substantially in the form
attached as Commutation Annex B.
6
(b) The sum of the final Commutation Amount and the final Net Commutation
Balances Amount (the "Final Settlement Amount") shall be determined as set
forth in subsections (c) and (d) of this Section 3.3. If the Final Settlement
Amount is greater than the Estimated Settlement Amount, then the Reinsurer
shall transfer to the Company within five Business Days after the final
determination thereof additional investment assets, cash and other assets
selected in accordance with Schedule 3 and included in the Commutation
Consideration having an aggregate Statutory Book Value as of the Effective Time
equal to the amount by which the Final Settlement Amount exceeds the Estimated
Settlement Amount. If the Estimated Settlement Amount is greater than the Final
Settlement Amount, then the Company shall transfer to the Reinsurer within five
Business Days after the final determination thereof cash and/or investment
assets transferred by the Reinsurer to the Company on the Commutation Closing
Date mutually agreed by the Parties that have an aggregate Statutory Book Value
as of the Effective Time equal to the amount by which the Estimated Settlement
Amount exceeds the Final Settlement Amount.
(c) No later than 90 days after the Closing Date, the Company shall deliver
to the Reinsurer: (i) a statement (the "Adjusted Commutation Statement")
setting forth a proposed commutation balance sheet as of the Effective Time
prepared in good faith from the Books and Records in accordance with the
Commutation Accounting Principles, consistently applied (a "Commutation Balance
Sheet") and showing the Company's calculations of (A) the Commutation Amount,
including the amount of the Net Statutory General Account Reserves as of the
Effective Time and (B) the Commutation Balances, and (ii) reasonable supporting
documentation with respect to the calculations of the amounts set forth in the
Adjusted Commutation Statement. In addition, the Adjusted Commutation Statement
shall be prepared in a manner consistent with the preparation of the Final
Adjustment Statement delivered to the Reinsurer by Buyer pursuant to
Section 2.5 of the Stock Purchase Agreement. The Reinsurer shall, during such
period of no longer than 90 days after the Closing Date, provide the Company
and its Representatives with reasonable access to the employees of the
Reinsurer to the extent such employees have knowledge about the Commuted
Business and to all documentation, records and other information of the Company
(to the extent in the possession of the Reinsurer) or the Reinsurer, as the
Company or any of its Representatives may reasonably request and that are
necessary to facilitate the preparation of the Adjusted Commutation Statement;
provided, that such access does not unreasonably interfere with the conduct of
the business of the Reinsurer and that such access and cooperation shall not,
in the event of any dispute arising out of this Agreement, serve to prejudice
the Reinsurer or any of its Affiliates.
(d) (i) The Reinsurer shall have 45 days from the date on which the Adjusted
Commutation Statement is delivered to it to review the Adjusted Commutation
Statement and the calculations of (A) the Commutation Amount, including the
amount of the Net Statutory General Account Reserves as of the Effective Time
and (B) the Commutation Balances (the "Review Period"). In furtherance of such
review, the Company shall (and shall cause Buyer to) provide the Reinsurer and
its Representatives with reasonable access during such 45 day period to the
employees of Buyer and the Company (including to the Chief Financial Officer of
Buyer) and to all documentation, records and other information of Buyer and the
Company as the Reinsurer or any of its Representatives may reasonably request;
provided, that such access does not unreasonably interfere with the conduct of
the business of Buyer or the Company and that such access and cooperation shall
not, in the event of any dispute arising out of this Agreement, serve to
prejudice the Buyer, the Company or any of its Affiliates.
7
(ii)If the Reinsurer disagrees with the Adjusted Commutation Statement
(including any amount or computation set forth therein) in any
respect and on any basis, the Reinsurer may, on or prior to the
last day of the Review Period, deliver a notice to the Company
setting forth, in reasonable detail, each disputed item or amount
and the basis for the Reinsurer's disagreement therewith (the
"Dispute Notice"). The Dispute Notice shall set forth, with
respect to each disputed item, the Reinsurer's position as to the
correct amount or computation that should have been included in
the Adjusted Commutation Statement and as to any calculations
contained therein. Such Dispute Notice shall be included together
with any Dispute Notice (as such term is defined in the Stock
Purchase Agreement) delivered by Reinsurer, as Seller, to the
Buyer under Section 2.5(c)(ii) of the Stock Purchase Agreement.
(iii)If no Dispute Notice is received by the Company with respect to
any item in the Adjusted Commutation Statement on or prior to the
last day of the Review Period, the amount or computation with
respect to such item as set forth in the Adjusted Commutation
Statement shall be deemed accepted by the Reinsurer, whereupon the
amount or computation of such item or items shall be final and
binding on the Parties subject to paragraph (ix) below.
(iv)For a period of 10 Business Days beginning on the date that the
Company receives a Dispute Notice (the "Resolution Period"), if
any, the Company and the Reinsurer shall endeavor in good faith to
resolve by mutual agreement all matters identified in the Dispute
Notice. In the event that the Parties are unable to resolve by
mutual agreement any matter in the Dispute Notice within such 10
Business Day period, the Company and the Reinsurer shall jointly
engage PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (the "Independent Accounting
Firm") to make a determination with respect to all matters in
dispute. If PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP is unwilling or unable to
serve, the Reinsurer and the Company shall cooperate in good faith
to appoint, within 30 days after the Reinsurer and the Company
receive notice from PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP of its refusal or
inability to act as the Independent Accounting Firm, an
independent certified public accounting firm of national
recognition mutually acceptable to the Company and the Reinsurer,
in which event such firm shall be the "Independent Accounting
Firm." If the Reinsurer, as the Seller, and the Buyer have an
unresolved dispute in respect of any Dispute Notice (as such term
is defined in the Stock Purchase Agreement) delivered by
Reinsurer, as Seller, to the Buyer under Section 2.5(c)(ii) of the
Stock Purchase Agreement, then the accounting firm appointed by
the Reinsurer, as Seller, and the Buyer under the Stock Purchase
Agreement, shall be appointed by the Reinsurer and the Company
hereunder as the "Independent Accounting Firm." Such Independent
Accounting Firm shall review any unresolved disputes submitted
hereunder and under the Stock Purchase Agreement together and each
of the Parties shall direct the
8
Independent Accounting Firm to render a determination hereunder at
the same time as it delivers any determination under the Stock
Purchase Agreement.
(v) The Reinsurer and the Company shall direct the Independent
Accounting Firm to render a determination within 30 days after its
retention (along with its determination of any dispute submitted
to the Independent Accounting Firm under the Stock Purchase
Agreement), and the Company, the Reinsurer and their respective
employees and agents will cooperate with the Independent
Accounting Firm during its engagement. The Company, on the one
hand, and the Reinsurer, on the other hand, shall promptly (and in
any event within 10 Business Days) after the Independent
Accounting Firm's engagement, each submit to the Independent
Accounting Firm their respective computations of the disputed
items identified in the Dispute Notice and information, arguments
and support for their respective positions, and shall concurrently
deliver a copy of such materials to the other Party. Each Party
shall then be given an opportunity to supplement the information,
arguments and support included in its initial submission with one
additional submission to respond to any arguments or positions
taken by the other Party in such other Party's initial submission,
which supplemental information shall be submitted to the
Independent Accounting Firm (with a copy thereof to the other
Party) within five Business Days after the first date on which
both Parties have submitted their respective initial submissions
to the Independent Accounting Firm. The Independent Accounting
Firm shall thereafter be permitted to request additional or
clarifying information from the Parties, and each of the Parties
shall cooperate and shall cause their Representatives to cooperate
with such requests of the Independent Accounting Firm. The
Independent Accounting Firm shall determine, based solely on the
materials so presented by the Parties and upon information
received in response to such requests for additional or clarifying
information and not by independent review, only those issues in
dispute specifically set forth in the Dispute Notice and shall
render a written report to the Company and the Reinsurer (the
"Adjustment Report") in which the Independent Accounting Firm
shall, after considering all matters set forth in the Dispute
Notice, determine what adjustments, if any, should be made to the
amounts and computations set forth in the Adjusted Commutation
Statement solely as to the disputed items and shall determine the
appropriate Commutation Amount and Commutation Balances on that
basis.
(vi)The Adjustment Report shall set forth, in reasonable detail, the
Independent Accounting Firm's determination with respect to each
of the disputed items or amounts specified in the Dispute Notice,
and the revisions, if any, to be made to the Adjusted Commutation
Statement, together with supporting calculations. In resolving any
disputed item, the Independent Accounting Firm (i) shall be bound
to the principles of this
9
Article III and the terms of this Agreement, (ii) shall limit its
review to matters specifically set forth in the Dispute Notice and
(iii) shall not assign a value to any item higher than the highest
value for such item claimed by either Party or less than the
lowest value for such item claimed by either Party.
(vii)All fees and expenses relating to the work of the Independent
Accounting Firm shall be shared equally by the Company and the
Reinsurer. Subject to paragraph (ix) below, the Adjustment Report
shall be final and binding upon the Company and the Reinsurer, and
shall be deemed a final arbitration award that is binding on each
of the Company and the Reinsurer, and, absent fraud, no party
shall seek further recourse to courts, other tribunals or
otherwise, other than to enforce the Adjustment Report.
(viii)The final form of the Commutation Balance Sheet as of the
Effective Time as finally determined pursuant to this Article III
is referred to herein as the "Final Commutation Balance Sheet".
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Agreement but subject to paragraph (ix) below, the provisions of
this Article III represent the sole and exclusive method for
determining the Final Commutation Balance Sheet, including the
Commutation Amount and the Commutation Balances derived therefrom.
(ix)Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the
contrary, any items set forth in any Dispute Notice delivered
pursuant to this Article III shall be resolved by the Parties or
by the Independent Accounting Firm consistent with (and in
conjunction with) the determination of the Final Balance Sheet
pursuant to Section 2.5 of the Stock Purchase Agreement. In
addition, if any adjustments to the Final Balance Sheet require
corresponding adjustments to the Final Commutation Balance Sheet,
final Commutation Amount or final Commutation Balances, such
adjustments shall be made, and the Parties shall make any
corresponding payments, whether or not a Dispute Notice was
delivered pursuant to this Article III.

Business. In consideration of the receipt of the payments described in
Section 3.1, the transfer of the Commutation Balances described in

Business, it being the intention of the Parties that this release operate as a
full and final settlement of the Company's current and future liabilities to
the Reinsurer under and in connection with the Commuted Business, provided,
however, that this release does not discharge obligations of the Company

by this Agreement. In any such action, suit or other proceeding, each of the
Parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally waives and agrees not to assert
by way of motion, as a defense or otherwise any claim that it is not subject to
the jurisdiction of any such New York
12
Court, that such action, suit or other proceeding is not subject to the
jurisdiction of any such New York Court, that such action, suit or other
proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of such
action, suit or other proceeding is improper; provided, that nothing set forth
in this sentence shall prohibit any of the Parties hereto from removing any
matter from one New York Court to another New York Court. Each of the Parties
hereto also agrees that any final and unappealable judgment against a Party
hereto in connection with any action, suit or other proceeding will be
conclusive and binding on such Party and that such award or judgment may be
enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction, either within or outside of
the United States. A certified or exemplified copy of such award or judgment
will be conclusive evidence of the fact and amount of such award or judgment.
Any process or other paper to be served in connection with any action or
proceeding under this Agreement shall, if delivered or sent in accordance with
Section 4.1, constitute good, proper and sufficient service thereof.
(b) The Parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur in the
event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in
accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is
accordingly agreed that, without the necessity of posting bond or other
undertaking, the Parties hereto shall be entitled to an injunction or
injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically
the terms and provisions of this Agreement in accordance with this Agreement,
this being in addition (subject to the terms of this Agreement) to any other
remedy to which such Party is entitled at law or in equity. In the event that
any Action is brought in equity to enforce the provisions of this Agreement, no
Party hereto shall allege, and each Party hereto hereby waives any defense or
counterclaim, that there is an adequate remedy at law.
(c) EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHT
TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT
OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY. EACH PARTY CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES
THAT (I) NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OR ANY OTHER PARTY HAS
REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE
EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER, (II) IT UNDERSTANDS
AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF SUCH WAIVER, (III) IT MAKES SUCH WAIVER
VOLUNTARILY AND (IV) IT HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG
OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 4.5(c).
Section 4.6. Severability.
(a) Whenever possible, each provision or portion of any provision of this
Agreement will be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under
Applicable Law, but if any provision or portion of any provision of this
Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under
any Applicable Law in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or
unenforceability will not affect any other provision or portion of any
provision in such jurisdiction, and this Agreement will be reformed, construed
and enforced in such jurisdiction as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable
provision or portion of any provision had never been contained herein.
13
(b) This Agreement may be amended or a provision hereof waived only by a
written instrument signed by each of the Company and the Reinsurer.
(c) No delay on the part of any Party in exercising any right, power or
privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any waiver on
the part of any Party of any right, power or privilege, nor any single or
partial exercise of any such right, power or privilege, preclude any further
exercise thereof or the exercise of any other such right, power or privilege.
Section 4.7. No Offset. No Party to this Agreement may offset any amount due
to the other Party hereto or any of such other Party's affiliates against any
amount owed or alleged to be owed from such other Party or its affiliates under
this Agreement or any other agreement without the written consent of such other
Party.
Section 4.8. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts,
all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become
effective when counterparts have been signed by each of the Parties and
delivered to the other Party. Each Party may deliver its signed counterpart of
this Agreement to the other Party by means of electronic mail or any other
electronic medium utilizing image scan technology, and such delivery will have
the same legal effect as hand delivery of an originally executed counterpart.

Exhibit 2
Exhibit 2 provides the inventory of principal assumptions utilized in preparing
the LBL Balance Sheet after Commutation. As used below, the Company is
sometimes referred to as "LBL" and Reinsurer is sometimes referred to as "XXXX."
Each financial statement line item included in the Commutation Balance Sheet
and LBL Balance Sheet after Commutation is measured according to the following
classification method, as specified in the table below:
(1)Amount is specifically identifiable to the Commuted Business or the
amount is calculated as a function of the Commutation and therefore
specifically identifiable to the Commuted Business.
(2)Specifically identifiable balances and an allocation for balances not
specifically identifiable.
(3)Amount represents the entire obligation of the Company or right to an
asset of the Company to/from an external party to the Company.
For the Commutation items included in Column 8, the Company and Reinsurer will
settle those amounts in accordance with Article III of the Agreement.
A schedule, included as Exhibit 1a, is provided of product groups, market
centers, channels and reinsurance categories, collectively "Codes", accessed
through queries obtained from the general ledgers of the Company and Reinsurer
in support of each financial statement line item. For the avoidance of doubt,
the business is identified using Codes. For reference, the account numbers as
of March 31, 2013 that relate to those Codes are included in the listing.
Certain transactions after March 31, 2013 may utilize additional account
numbers associated with the product groups, market centers and channels
associated with the Commuted Business or the Company.
