(iv) sell, transfer, lease, pledge or otherwise dispose of any of its or any of its Subsidiaries’ assets, business or operations (in a single transaction or a series of related transactions) in the aggregate with a value of more than $100 million (excluding, for purposes of this Section 2.01(a)(iv), sales or dispositions of investments made in the ordinary course of business by the licensed insurance company subsidiary of Genworth Canada in accordance with Applicable Law and the investment policy approved by the board of directors of such subsidiary);

(v) make any reductions in Genworth’s Canada’s policy with respect to the declaration and payment of any dividends on any Common Shares, except if and to the extent that a reduction in the dividend is required by Applicable Law or by requirements imposed by OSFI); or

(vi) issue new debt securities or incur or enter into debt or guarantees that would result in Genworth Canada having (on a consolidated basis) a ratio (expressed as a percentage) of debt to total capital (the sum of debt and shareholders’ equity) of greater than 20%.

(b) For so long as Genworth Financial beneficially owns not less than fifty percent (50%) of the outstanding Common Shares, Genworth Canada shall not (either directly or indirectly through a Subsidiary) take any of the following actions without the prior written consent of Genworth Financial:

(c) If at any time Genworth Financial beneficially owns less than fifty percent (50%) of the outstanding Common Shares, then, for so long as Genworth Financial beneficially owns not less than thirty-three and one-third percent (33 1/3%) of the outstanding Common Shares, Genworth Canada shall consult with Genworth Financial with respect to the matters set forth in Section 2.01(b), but Genworth Financial shall have no right to approve or deny approval of such matters.

(d) For so long as Genworth Financial beneficially owns not less than fifteen percent (15%) of the outstanding Common Shares, Genworth Canada shall not implement or adopt any shareholder rights plan without the prior written consent of Genworth Financial, unless the plan includes an exception that would permit a purchase of all or part of the Common Shares beneficially owned by Genworth Financial from Genworth Financial and/or its Subsidiaries without causing the rights thereunder to separate from the Common Shares or become exerciseable or otherwise triggering the plan.

SECTION 2.02 Special Share and Board Composition.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Genworth Canada may request that any one or more of the Genworth Financial Designees that would otherwise be required to resign or be removed pursuant to this Section 2.02(b) to remain a director, in which case any such Genworth Financial Designee shall no longer be considered to be a Genworth Financial Designee.

(i) The Applicable GNW Shareholder holding the Special Share agrees that it will not transfer, and Genworth Financial agrees that it will not permit the transfer, of the Special Share except (1) subject to Section 2.02(c)(ii), to a member of the Genworth Financial Group; or (2) as the Board may otherwise approve.

SECTION 2.03 Director Elections.

(a) Genworth Canada shall give written notice to the Applicable GNW Shareholder(s) and Genworth Financial of any meeting of shareholders of Genworth Canada at which directors are to be elected (a “Director Election”) at least 20 days and not more than 30 days prior to the record date for the meeting, which notice shall specify the record date and the proposed meeting date.

(c) If Genworth Financial and the Applicable GNW Shareholder(s) have chosen to exercise, or cause to be exercised, the voting rights attached to the Common Shares beneficially owned by Genworth Financial in respect of a Director Election, Genworth Canada agrees to nominate for election as directors of Genworth Canada in such Director Election a number of persons specified by the Applicable GNW Shareholder(s) holding Common Shares equal to the number of directors the holder of the Special Share would have been entitled to elect, had Genworth Financial and the Applicable GNW Shareholder(s) chosen to exercise, or cause to be exercised, the rights to elect directors attached to the Special Share.

Genworth Canada shall also give Genworth Financial notice as soon as practicable following the grant of a Special Option.

(b) Subject to the provisions hereof, the Pre-Emptive Right shall, in each instance, be exercisable by Genworth Financial at any time during a period of five (5) Business Days following receipt in accordance with Section 3.03(a) of a Triggering Event Notice, provided that Genworth Financial shall make its determination as to whether to exercise the Pre-Emptive Right in respect of such Triggering Event as soon as practicable and shall promptly deliver an irrevocable notice (an “Exercise Notice”) in writing addressed to Genworth Canada confirming that it will exercise the Pre-Emptive Right in respect of such Triggering Event, specifying the number of Pre-Emptive Right Securities that it will purchase and the member(s) of the Genworth Financial Group to whom such Pre-Emptive Right Securities are to be issued, if other than Genworth Financial. If Genworth Canada does not receive an Exercise Notice in respect of a Triggering Event Notice within such five (5) Business Day period, Genworth Financial shall be deemed to have not exercised the Pre-Emptive Right in respect of the Triggering Event to which such Triggering Event Notice relates and the Pre-Emptive Right shall be deemed to have expired in respect of such Triggering Event.

(c) Subject to Applicable Law, Pre-Emptive Right Closing of the issue of the Pre-Emptive Right Securities shall occur on the Triggering Event Closing Date or such later date as the Parties may agree upon.

SECTION 4.05 Additional Requirements. Genworth Canada agrees that, for so long as, and with respect to any financial year during which, Genworth Financial beneficially owns not less than twenty percent (20%) of the outstanding Common Shares:

(a) Cooperation. Genworth Canada will provide to Genworth Financial on a timely basis all information that Genworth Financial or any of its Subsidiaries reasonably requires for the preparation, printing, filing, and public dissemination of any required public filing by Genworth Financial. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Genworth Canada will provide all required financial information with respect to it and its consolidated Subsidiaries to Genworth Financial’s independent certified public accountants (the “Genworth Financial Auditors”) and management in a sufficient and reasonable time and in sufficient detail to permit such auditors to take all steps and perform all review necessary with respect to information to be included or contained in financial statements, MD&A and other public filings by Genworth Financial.

(b) Coordination of Auditors’ Opinions. Genworth Canada will use its commercially reasonable efforts to enable its independent certified public accountants (the “Genworth Canada Auditors”) to complete their audit such that they will date their opinion on Genworth Canada’s audited annual financial statements on the same date that the Genworth Financial Auditors date their opinion on the audited annual financial statements of Genworth Financial, and to enable Genworth Financial to meet its timetable for the printing, filing and public dissemination of the audited annual financial statements of Genworth Financial.

(c) Earnings Releases. Genworth Financial agrees that, unless required by Law or unless Genworth Canada shall have consented thereto, no member of the Genworth Financial Group will publicly release any quarterly, annual or other financial information of Genworth Canada or any of its Subsidiaries (“Genworth Canada Information”) delivered to

Genworth Financial pursuant to this Article IV prior to the time that Genworth Financial publicly releases financial information of Genworth Financial for the relevant period. Genworth Financial will consult with Genworth Canada on the timing of their annual and quarterly earnings releases and Genworth Financial and Genworth Canada will give each other an opportunity to review the information therein relating to Genworth Canada and its Subsidiaries and to comment thereon; provided that Genworth Financial shall have the sole right to determine the timing of all such releases if Genworth Financial and Genworth Canada disagree. Genworth Canada shall publicly release its financial results for each annual and quarterly period concurrently with or immediately (and in no event later than four hours) following Genworth Financial’s release of its financial results for the corresponding period. If any member of the Genworth Financial Group is required by Law to publicly release such Genworth Canada Information prior to the public release of Genworth Financial’s financial information, Genworth Financial will give Genworth Canada notice of such release of Genworth Canada Information as soon as practicable but no later than two days prior to such release of Genworth Canada Information.

(d) Meetings with Financial Analysts. Genworth Canada shall notify Genworth Financial reasonably in advance of the date of all meetings to be held between Genworth Canada and any financial analyst, and shall consult with Genworth Financial as to the appropriate timing for all such meetings.

Genworth Canada shall deliver to Genworth Financial the risk, risk management, capital and investment information set forth on Schedule 4.05(e)(i) as directed by Genworth Financial from time to time, with such information to be in accordance with the administrative and risk management practices, policies and processes (including with respect to content of information and timing) of Genworth Financial in effect from time to time and communicated to Genworth Canada.

(ii) Compliance. Genworth Canada shall undertake the activities and deliver to Genworth Financial the compliance information set forth on Schedule 4.05(e)(ii) as directed by Genworth Financial from time to time, with such activities and information to be in accordance with the administrative and compliance practices, policies and processes (including with respect to content of information and timing) of Genworth Financial in effect from time to time and communicated to Genworth Canada.

(f) Access to Personnel and Working Papers. Genworth Canada will request the Genworth Canada Auditors to make available to the Genworth Financial Auditors both the personnel who performed or are performing the annual audit of Genworth Canada and, consistent with customary professional practice and courtesy of such auditors with respect to the furnishing of work papers, work papers related to the annual audit of Genworth Canada, in all cases within a reasonable time, so that the Genworth Financial Auditors are able to perform the procedures they consider necessary to take responsibility for the work of the Genworth Canada Auditors as it relates to the Genworth Financial Auditors’ report on the audited annual financial statements of Genworth Financial, all within sufficient time to enable Genworth Financial to meet its timetable for the printing, filing and public dissemination of the annual financial results of Genworth Financial.

SECTION 4.06 Fifty Percent Threshold. Genworth Canada agrees that, for so long as, and with respect to any financial year during which, Genworth Financial beneficially owns not less than fifty percent (50%) of the outstanding Common Shares:

Genworth Canada shall provide Genworth Financial with an opportunity to meet with management of Genworth Canada to discuss such information, reports and plans upon reasonable notice.

(b) Internal Auditors. Genworth Canada shall provide Genworth Financial, the Genworth Financial Auditors or other representatives of Genworth Financial reasonable access upon reasonable notice during normal business hours to Genworth Canada’s and its Subsidiaries’ books and records and personnel so that Genworth Financial may conduct reasonable audits relating to the financial statements and data provided by Genworth Canada pursuant to this Article IV, as well as to the internal accounting controls and operations of Genworth Canada and its Subsidiaries.

(c) Maintenance of Internal Controls. Genworth Canada shall, and shall cause each of its consolidated Subsidiaries to, (i) make and keep books, records and accounts, which, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of Genworth Canada and such Subsidiaries and (ii) devise and maintain a system of internal controls over financial reporting sufficient to provide reasonable assurances that: (x) transactions are executed in accordance with management’s general or specific authorization, (y) transactions are recorded as necessary (1) to permit preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP and Canadian GAAP or any other criteria applicable to such statements and (2) to maintain accountability for assets and (z) access to assets is permitted only in accordance with management’s general or specific authorization.

(d) Management Certification. Genworth Canada’s chief executive officer and chief financial or accounting officer shall submit quarterly representations, substantially in the form furnished to Genworth Financial by Genworth Canada or its Subsidiaries prior to the Closing Date (with such changes thereto prescribed by Genworth Financial consistent with representations furnished to Genworth Financial by other Subsidiaries of Genworth Financial or as otherwise required by changes to Applicable Law or stock exchange requirements) attesting to the accuracy and completeness of the financial statements or financial and accounting records referred to therein in all material respects.

(e) Accountants’ Reports. Promptly, but in no event later than five Business Days following the receipt thereof, Genworth Canada shall deliver to Genworth Financial copies of all reports submitted to Genworth Canada or any of its Subsidiaries by their independent certified public accountants, including, without limitation, each report submitted to Genworth Canada or any of its subsidiaries concerning its accounting practices and systems and any comment letter submitted to management or the board of directors (or any committee thereof) in connection with their annual audit and all responses to such reports and letters.

(f) Accounting Policies and Principles – US GAAP. Genworth Financial will notify Genworth Canada from time to time of changes to US GAAP or SEC financial reporting requirements. In connection with any such changes or any proposed material change in US GAAP accounting policies, principles, processes or methodologies from those in effect immediately prior to the Closing Date, Genworth Canada will consult with Genworth Financial and, if requested by Genworth Financial, Genworth Canada will consult with the Genworth Financial Auditors with respect to such changes and their implementation by Genworth Canada; provided, however that Genworth Canada shall not make or implement any such changes without Genworth Financial’s prior written consent. Genworth Financial will use its reasonable best efforts to promptly respond to any request by Genworth Canada to make a change in accounting policies, principles, processes or methodologies and, in any event, in sufficient time to enable Genworth Canada to comply with its obligations under Section 4.01.

(g) Accounting Policies and Principles – Canadian GAAP. Genworth Canada will give Genworth Financial reasonable prior notice of any proposed material change in Canadian GAAP accounting policies, principles, processes or methodologies from those in effect immediately prior to the Closing Date, and will give Genworth Financial notice immediately following adoption of any such changes that are mandated or required under Canadian GAAP or requirements of the Securities Commissions. In connection therewith, Genworth Canada will consult with Genworth Financial and, if requested by Genworth Financial, Genworth Canada will consult with the Genworth Financial Auditors with respect thereto. As to material changes in accounting principles that could affect Genworth Financial, Genworth Canada will not make any such changes without Genworth Financial’s prior written consent, excluding changes that are mandated or required under Canadian GAAP or requirements of the Securities Commissions. If Genworth Financial so requests, Genworth Canada will be required to obtain the concurrence of the Genworth Canada Auditors as to such material change prior to its implementation.
