The Reinsured’s good faith determinations regarding its liabilities under the policies of the Subject Business, including the Reinsured’s decisions to adjust, settle, and compromise all Claims will bind the Reinsurer. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, the liability of the Reinsurer with respect to Claims will follow the liability of the Reinsured in all respects and will be subject to all good faith interpretations of contract provisions in the policies of the Subject Business by the Reinsured including interpretations resulting in the payment of Claims. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, all such adjustments, settlements and compromises will be unconditionally binding upon the Reinsurer in proportion to the Reinsurer’s quota share participation, the true intent of this Agreement being that the Reinsurer will, in every case to which this Agreement applies, follow the fortunes, and follow the settlements of the Reinsured.

ARTICLE XV AUDIT AND INSPECTION

calendar month period; provided, further, that such temporal limitation will not apply to any such audit that is required by Applicable Law.

ARTICLE XVI ERRORS AND OMISSIONS

Any inadvertent error or omission on the part of either Party hereto shall not relieve the other Party from any liability which would have attached hereunder, provided that such error or omission is rectified promptly upon discovery, and shall not impose any greater liability on the Reinsurer than would have attached hereunder if the error or omission had not occurred.

ARTICLE XVII ADJUSTMENTS

Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if the Reinsured’s liability under any policy of the Subject Business is changed because of a misstatement of age, sex, marital status, smoking status, amount or nature of coverage, or any other material fact by any Policyholder or its representative (including any employer, sponsor, group policyholder, broker, agent or other Person acting on behalf of the Policyholder), or in good faith by the Reinsured or by a Governmental Authority, the Reinsurer will, (i) assume that portion of any increase in reinsured liabilities resulting from the change, and (ii) receive credit for that portion of any decrease in reinsured liabilities resulting from the change, and the Reinsured and the Reinsurer will make all appropriate adjustments to amounts due each other under this Agreement.

ARTICLE XVIII CHANGES IN THE AGREEMENT

The terms of this Agreement shall not be waived or changed except by written amendment executed by a duly authorized officer of the Reinsurer and by a duly authorized officer or representative of the Reinsured. Any such amendment or addendum shall be a formal written addendum to the reinsurance contract. No amendment or addendum to this Agreement shall be effective without prior notification to and approval by the New York Department of Financial Services.

ARTICLE XIX OFFSET CLAUSE

The Reinsured or the Reinsurer may offset any balance(s) which may become due between them under this Agreement. This offset right shall apply regardless of whether the balances arose on account of Premiums, commission, claims, losses, Allocated Loss Adjustment Expense, salvage or any other amount(s) due from one Party to the other.

ARTICLE XX NO THIRD PARTY RIGHTS

In no event shall anyone other than the Reinsurer or the Reinsured have any rights under this Agreement.

ARTICLE XXI CHANGES IN OWNERSHIP AND ADMINISTRATIVE PRACTICES

The Reinsured undertakes not to voluntarily make any material change in its established acceptance and underwriting policy in respect of the Subject Business, nor to undergo any Change in Control, without, in each case, the prior consent of the Reinsurer, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, denied or conditioned; provided, however, that such consent shall not be required if such change is required by Applicable Law. It is furthermore understood and agreed that should a new affiliate to the Oscar Reinsureds be established for purposes of writing business similar to the Subject Business, the Parties hereto shall, subject to Applicable Law and regulatory approval, mutually agree on a quota share reinsurance agreement in respect of such new affiliate and such business that shall be consistent with the terms and conditions hereof and subject to the same Interlocking provision and principles set forth here.

ARTICLE XXII NON-WAIVER CLAUSE

The failure of the Reinsured or the Reinsurer to insist on compliance with this Agreement or to exercise any right or remedy hereunder shall not constitute a waiver of any rights or remedies contained herein nor estop either Party from thereafter demanding full and complete compliance nor prevent either Party from exercising such rights or remedy in the future.

ARTICLE XXIII INSOLVENCY

(a) Claims shall be payable by the Reinsurer on the basis of the liability of the Reinsured under the policies reinsured without diminution because of insolvency of the Reinsured. In the event of insolvency of the Reinsured, payments by the Reinsurer shall be made directly to the Reinsured or its liquidator, receiver or statutory successor except (i) where this Agreement specifically provides another payee for such reinsurance in the event of the insolvency of the Reinsured, or (ii) the Reinsurer, with the consent of the direct insureds, has assumed such policy obligations of the Reinsured as its direct obligations to the payees under such policies, in substitution for the obligations of the Reinsured to such payees. The implementation of any novation shall be subject to the prior approval of the certificate of assumption on New York risks by the Superintendent of Financial Services of New York.

(b) The rehabilitator, conservator, liquidator, receiver or statutory successor of the insolvent Reinsured shall give written notice to the Reinsurer of the pendency of the claim against the Reinsured on any policy reinsured hereunder within a reasonable 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 Reinsured or its rehabilitator, conservator, liquidator, receiver or statutory successor. Such expense shall be chargeable, subject to court approval, against the insolvent Reinsured as part of the expense of the conservation or liquidation to the extent of a proportionate share of the benefit, which may accrue to the Reinsured solely as a result of the defense undertaken by the Reinsurer.

ARTICLE XXIV NO INTERMEDIARY

This Reinsurance has been negotiated and agreed solely between the Parties hereto and no broker or intermediary has represented either Party or is entitled to any remuneration.

ARTICLE XXV PAYMENTS

All ceded Premiums and Ultimate Net Loss reimbursement settlements shall be made directly between the Reinsurer and the Reinsured.

ARTICLE XXVI DELAYED PAYMENTS

For purposes of any payments due hereunder, if there is a delayed settlement of a payment due, interest will accrue on such payment at the Applicable Interest Rate.

ARTICLE XXVII CREDIT FOR REINSURANCE

The Parties intend that the Reinsured will receive, from and after the Coinsurance Effective Date, full statutory reserve financial statement credit for the reinsurance provided under this Agreement in the Reinsured’s state of domicile. If the Reinsured nevertheless loses statutory reserve financial statement credit in the Reinsured’s state of domicile due to any reason attributable to the Reinsurer, the Reinsurer’s business, operations, condition, licenses and/or authorizations (including any losses thereof or restrictions thereon) or to a change in Applicable Law (collectively, a “Coinsurance Credit Event”), or if the Reinsured is notified in writing by a Governmental Authority that it will not receive statutory reserve financial statement credit for the reinsurance provided under this Agreement due to a Coinsurance Credit Event, the Reinsurer will promptly, and in any event will no later than thirty (30) calendar days following receipt of written notice from the Reinsured that a Coinsurance Credit Event has occurred, (i) cure such Coinsurance Credit Event to the Parties’ mutual satisfaction and at the Reinsurer’s sole cost and expense, and/or

(ii) establish for the benefit of the Reinsured, at the Reinsurer’s sole cost and expense, such trust accounts, letters of credit, funds withheld, or other security permitted by Applicable Law to allow the Reinsured to obtain full statutory reserve financial statement credit for reinsurance provided under this Agreement in the Reinsured’s state of domicile. Subject to the preceding two sentences, in the event of a Coinsurance Credit Event, the Reinsurer will have the option of determining the method of security to be utilized for such purpose. If such method elected by the Reinsurer requires any change to this Agreement in order for the Reinsured to obtain such statutory reserve financial statement credit, the Parties will cooperate in good faith to promptly amend this Agreement to incorporate such change. Any trust accounts, letters of credit, funds withheld, or other security established by the Reinsurer under this ARTICLE XXVII to address a Coinsurance Credit Event as set forth herein shall only be required to be maintained for so long a period as the Reinsured

cannot receive full statutory reserve financial statement credit for the reinsurance provided under this Agreement in the Reinsured’s state of domicile, and the Reinsured shall reasonably cooperate in the release of any such security should the Reinsured’s ability to receive full statutory reserve financial statement credit for the reinsurance provided under this Agreement in the Reinsured’s state of domicile without such security be fully restored. This ARTICLE XXVII will survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement.

ARTICLE XXVIII DATA PROTECTION

Personal Data received by either the Reinsurer or the Reinsured from the other shall not be (i) used by the receiving party other than in connection with performing its obligations under this Agreement; (ii) commercially exploited by the receiving party; or (iii) transferred abroad without the Reinsured having implemented appropriate safeguards in accordance with the applicable law and regulation. To the extent permitted by the applicable law, each Party shall notify the other Party immediately upon becoming aware of privacy breaches related to Personal Data.

ARTICLE XXIX ARBITRATION CLAUSE

This clause shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any determination that the Agreement is void or rescinded for any reason.

All matters in difference between the Reinsured and the Reinsurer (hereinafter referred to as the “Disputing Parties”) in relation to this reinsurance, including its formation and validity, and whether arising during or after the period of this reinsurance, shall be referred to an Arbitration Tribunal in the manner hereinafter set out.

Unless the Disputing Parties agree upon a single Arbitrator within thirty days of one receiving a written request from the other for Arbitration, the Claimant (the Disputing Party requesting Arbitration) shall appoint its Arbitrator and give written notice thereof to the Respondent. Within thirty days of receiving such notice the Respondent shall appoint its Arbitrator and give written notice thereof to the Claimant, failing which the Claimant may nominate an Arbitrator on behalf of the Respondent. The Arbitrators shall not be under the control of either party.

Should the Arbitrators fail to agree, they shall appoint, by mutual agreement or by a mutually agreed selection process, an Umpire to whom the matter in difference shall be referred.

Unless the Disputing Parties otherwise agree, the Arbitration Tribunal shall consist of persons employed or engaged in a senior position in insurance or reinsurance underwriting or claims.

The Arbitration Tribunal shall have the power to fix all procedural rules for the holding of the Arbitration including discretionary power to make orders as to any matters which it may consider proper in the circumstances of the case with regard to pleadings, discovery, inspection of documents, examination of witnesses and any other matter whatsoever relating to the conduct of the Arbitration and may receive and act upon such evidence whether oral or written strictly admissible or not as it shall in its discretion think fit.

All costs and expenses including attorneys’ fees, arbitrator fees, and expert fees of the Arbitration shall be in the discretion of the Arbitration Tribunal who may direct to and by whom and in what manner they shall be paid.

The seat of the Arbitration shall be in New York, NY and the Arbitration Tribunal shall apply the laws of the state of domicile of the Reinsured, without regard to such state’s principles of conflict of laws that could compel the application of the laws of another jurisdiction, as the proper law of this reinsurance.

The Arbitration Tribunal may not award exemplary, punitive, multiple or other damages of a similar nature.

The award of the Arbitration Tribunal shall be in writing and binding upon the Disputing Parties who covenant to carry out the same. If either of the Disputing Parties should fail to carry out any award the other may apply for its enforcement to a court of competent jurisdiction in any territory in which the Disputing Party in default is domiciled or has assets or carries on business.

ARTICLE XXX TERM

This Agreement will commence on the Coinsurance Effective Date and run indefinitely unless earlier terminated as provided in ARTICLE XXX (the “Term”).

ARTICLE XXXI TERMINATION

Notwithstanding anything contained to the contrary in this Agreement, this Agreement may only be terminated as follows:

(a) If either Party to this Agreement fails to pay (the “Non-paying Party”) the other Party an amount due within thirty (30) days after the due date provided in this Agreement, the other Party (the “Terminating Party”) may terminate this Agreement, subject to ninety (90) days’ prior written notice to the Non-paying Party of the Terminating Party’s intention to terminate; provided, however, that the Non-paying Party may avoid termination of this Agreement pursuant to this paragraph by paying all undisputed amounts that are delinquent and then due, including any interest owing thereon pursuant to ARTICLE XXVI, on or before the termination date specified in the written notice;

(b) In the event that a Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over the Reinsured denies or revokes the ability of the Reinsured to take full statutory reserve financial statement credit for the reinsurance provided under this Agreement due to a Coinsurance Credit Event, the Reinsured may terminate this Agreement, subject to thirty (30) days prior written notice to the Reinsurer of the Reinsured’s intention to terminate; provided, however, that the Reinsurer may avoid termination of this Agreement pursuant to this paragraph by fully complying with ARTICLE XXVII prior to the end of such thirty (30) day notice period;

(c) This Agreement may be terminated by either Party by giving ninety (90) days’ written notice of termination to the other Party if such termination is required, but not sooner required, by any Governmental Authority under Applicable Law;

(d) This Agreement may be terminated by either Party at any time after the third (3rd) year anniversary of the Coinsurance Effective Date by giving ninety (90) days’ written notice of termination to the other Party; and

(e) If one or more of the reinsurance agreements between the Reinsurer and the Oscar Reinsureds that are subject to the Interlocking provision herein is terminated for reasons other than that such termination was required by a Governmental Authority under Applicable Law, either Party may terminate this Agreement within ninety (90) days following the termination of such reinsurance agreement that is subject to the Interlocking provision herein by giving the other Party written notice of termination of this Agreement.

(f) This Agreement may be terminated immediately upon the mutual written consent of the Parties.

The effective date of termination of this Agreement (the “Termination Date”) for any notice of termination properly delivered in accordance with this ARTICLE XXX, will be the date specified in such notice. The Reinsured shall provide notice of termination of this Agreement to the New York Department of Financial Services upon Termination.

Upon the Termination Date of this Agreement, subject to all other terms and conditions hereof including the Maximum Combined Ratio, the Reinsurer will remain liable for all reinsured liabilities under this Agreement with respect to each policy of the Subject Business that was effected, bound, sold, issued, entered into, renewed or reinstated, as applicable, by the Reinsured on or prior to the Termination Date of this Agreement and the Reinsurer will remain liable for all such reinsurance until the end of the “Run-Off Period,” which will mean the period beginning on the Termination Date of this Agreement and continuing until the date on which the Reinsured has no further liabilities or obligations under any policy of the Subject Business effected, bound, sold, issued, entered into, renewed or reinstated, as applicable, by the Reinsured on or prior to the Termination Date of this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, the Reinsured’s and the Reinsurer’s respective obligation to pay the other all amounts due hereunder, as applicable, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, with respect to the policies of the Subject Business that were effected, bound, issued, entered into, renewed or reinstated, as applicable, by the Reinsured on or prior to the Termination Date of this Agreement, will extend during the Run-Off Period, as provided herein. The Parties hereto expressly agree that they will reasonably cooperate with each other in the handling of all run-off obligations with respect to the policies of the Subject Business reinsured hereunder.

Upon the Termination Date of this Agreement, no policies of the Subject Business effected, bound, sold, issued, renewed or reinstated, as applicable, by the Reinsured after the Termination Date of this Agreement will be reinsured under this Agreement.

This ARTICLE XXX will survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement.
