|
Schedule C
|
Premiums
|
The Company and Life Re mutually agree to reinsure on the terms and conditions set forth below. This Agreement is solely between the Company and Life Re, and performance of the obligations of each party under this Agreement will be rendered solely to the other party. In no instance will anyone other than the Company or Life Re have any rights under this Agreement.
The policies and riders set forth in Schedule A that are reinsured under this Agreement are hereinafter referred to collectively as “Reinsured Policies” and individually as a “Reinsured Policy”.
ARTICLE I
AUTOMATIC REINSURANCE
|
1.
|
Insurance
|
The Company will cede and Life Re will accept reinsurance under the policies and riders written by the Company on citizens of the United States or Canada domiciled in the United States or Canada at the time of policy issue under the plans shown in Part III of Schedule A. When the Company retains its maximum limit of retention, as shown in Part I of Schedule A, the Company will cede and Life Re will accept automatically reinsurance in amounts not exceeding the amounts per life in Part II of Schedule A of this Agreement. Where the Company has more than one Agreement with Life Re, the total amount per life automatically ceded to Life Re, under all Agreements combined, will not exceed the automatic binding limits available to the Company under the Agreement with the highest binding authority. Life Re will accept automatic reinsurance when (a) the Company already has for its own account its maximum limit of retention on the life and for this reason alone is not retaining any portion of the insurance applied for on a current application, and (b) in the Company’s opinion there has been no adverse change in the insurance status of the risk since the Company’s last acceptance for its own retention. A risk as defined in the following categories is not eligible for reinsurance under this paragraph:
|
(a)
|
A jumbo risk as defined in paragraph 3 below.
|
|
(b)
|
A risk which has been sent to Life Re or any other reinsurer for facultative underwriting consideration.
|
|
2.
|
Coverages
|
The coverages or risks reinsured under Article I, 1. is life insurance and waiver of disability benefits to the extent of limits specified in Schedule A.
|
3.
|
Jumbo Risk
|
A jumbo risk is one where the papers of the Company, including all papers that are part of the current application, indicate that the person to be insured has or will have total insurance in force in all companies greater than:
|
Life
|
|
|
All Ages
|
$5,000,000
|
|
4.
|
Waiver of Disability Acceptance and Participation Limits
|
Life Re’s maximum acceptance limit for waiver of disability benefits is $2,000,000 per life, and the maximum participation limit for such benefits is $3,000,000 per life.
|
5.
|
Regular Limits of Retention
|
The Company may modify its regular limits or retention, detailed in Schedule A, by giving thirty days’ written notice to Life Re. The amount of reinsurance to be ceded and accepted automatically after the new limits take effect will be determined by mutual Agreement.
ARTICLE II
FACULTATIVE REINSURANCE
Whether reinsurance is available as Automatic Reinsurance under Article I or not, the Company may submit, for consideration by Life Re, a request for any amount of reinsurance of the coverages in Article I, 2. that the Company may require.
ARTICLE III
LIABILITY
|
1.
|
Automatic Reinsurance Liability
|
The liability of Life Re on any policy reinsured on an automatic basis under this Agreement begins and ends at the same time as that of the Company.
|
2.
|
Facultative Reinsurance Liability
|
The liability of Life Re on any policy reinsured on a facultative basis under this Agreement begins and ends at the same time as that of the Company, provided that:
|
(a)
|
Life Re has given the Company an unconditional approval on the application for reinsurance, and
|
|
(b)
|
the Company has notified Life Re of its acceptance of such offer in writing within ninety (90) days.
|
ARTICLE IV
AMOUNT OF INSURANCE
|
1.
|
Amounts
|
Life insurance and waiver of disability benefits under this Agreement will be on the Yearly Renewable Term plan for the amount at risk under the policy reinsured. For the purpose of this Agreement, the amount as risk will be calculated in the following manner:
|
R = D – X
|
|
|
Where:
|
D = Death Benefit
|
|
X = The Ceding Company’s Retention
|
|
|
2.
|
Minimum Amounts
|
If the amount to be reinsured with Life Re and the Company’s other excess reinsurers under a policy is less than $25,000, the Company will retain all of the liability for such policy. If the amount to be reinsured with Life Re land the Company’s other excess reinsurers meets or exceeds $25,000 on any policy, such amount will be reinsured pursuant to this Agreement and the Company’s agreements with its other excess reinsurers.
|
3.
|
Reductions and Terminations
|
Reinsurance amounts are calculated in terms of coverages on a “per policy” basis. If any of the Company’s policies or riders on an insured are reduced or terminated, the reinsurance under this Agreement will be reduced by the corresponding amount. The reduction will not be applied to force the Company to reassume more than its regular retention limit at the time of the reduction for the age of issue, mortality rating and form of the policy or policies for which reinsurance is being terminated. The reduction first will be applied to reinsurance, if any, on the particular policy reduced. If the reduction exceeds the amount of reinsurance on that policy, the reduction will then be applied to reinsurance on other policies on the insured in the order in which the policies were effected, the first effected will be the first terminated or reduced. If reinsurance has been ceded to more than one reinsurer, the reduction in Life Re’s reinsurance will be in proportion to the reduction in the total. After the proportion has been determined, the rules above will be used.
|
4.
|
Reinstatements
|
|
(a)
|
Automatic Reinsurance
A Reinsured Policy originally ceded under this Agreement on an automatic basis, that is reduced, terminated or lapsed, and later reinstated by the Company pursuant to policy provisions will be accepted for reinsurance by Life Re up to such amount as would be in force if such Reinsured Policy had not been reduced, terminated or lapsed. The Company will pay to Life Re, Life Re’s Share of any premiums and interest that the Company has received for reinstatement.
|
|
(b)
|
Facultative Reinsurance
A Reinsured Policy originally ceded under this Agreement on a facultative basis, that was reduced, terminated, or lapsed, will require approval by Life Re prior to reinstatement of such a policy, if the Company has retained less than 50% of the risk. Upon such approval, reinsurance for the policy will be for the amount that would be in force had the policy not been reduced, terminated, or lapsed.
|
ARTICLE V
PROCEDURES FOR REINSURANCE
|
1.
|
Monthly Reports
|
Within ten (10) calendar days following the end of each calendar month, the Company will forward to Life Re a report as shown in Part I of Schedule B. Along with the report, the Company will remit a check to Life Re for the balance indicated plus interest for the number of days since the middle of the preceding month, as if all transactions had occurred in the middle of the month. If a balance is due the Company, it will be remitted promptly by Life Re, plus interest for the number of days since the middle of the preceding month, as if all transactions had occurred in the middle of the month. Interest will accrue on such payments at an annual rate equal to 7%.
|
2.
|
Facultative Reinsurance
|
When a Company requests facultative reinsurance, the application will be made by submitting Life Re Form 2068, Bulk Preliminary Notification, shown in Part II of Schedule B (or a mutually agreeable form). The Company will send to Life Re any and all information it has about the risk, including specifically, but not limited to, copies of the application, medical examiners’ reports, attending physicians’ statements, inspection reports, and other reports and other papers bearing on the insurability of the risk. Upon receipt of the application, Life Re will analyze the risk promptly and as soon as possible notify the Company of its decision and its classification of the risk. If the Company elects to use Life Re for facultative reinsurance and after the Company’s policy has been paid for and delivered, the Company will activate the facultative cession on the Company’s reinsurance system, within 120 days of Life Re’s decision to accept the case. When the preceding facultative procedures have been satisfied Article V, paragraphs 2 and 4, apply to Facultative as well as Automatic Reinsurance. A facultative indicator must be present on the monthly reinsurance transaction and inforce reports.
|
3.
|
Quarterly Reports
|
Within thirty (30) calendar days following the end of each calendar quarter, the Company will forward to Life Re a detailed reserve and inforce run.
ARTICLE VI
PREMIUMS
|
1.
|
Life Insurance
|
Premiums per $1,000 for life insurance rated standard and substandard are given in Schedule C. The premiums per $1,000 are applied to the amount of life reinsurance as outlined in Article IV. A policy fee, when applicable, is charged in each year in addition to the premium based on the amount of life insurance. Life Re anticipates that these premiums will be continued indefinitely for all business ceded under this Agreement. For the purpose of satisfying requirements for deficiency reserves imposed by various state insurance departments, Life Re will guaranty for renewal the greater of the premiums provided in this Agreement or premiums based on the 1980 CSO Table at 2.5% interest. When the Company charges a flat extra premium, whether alone or in addition to a premium based on a multiple table, the Company will pay this premium on the reinsurance amount in addition to the standard or multiple table premium for the rating and plan of reinsurance.
|
2.
|
Disability Benefits
|
Premiums for waiver of disability benefits will be paid at the same rate as the Company charges for the benefit on which reinsurance in Life Re is based.
|
3.
|
Preliminary Term Insurance
|
If the Company issued a policy with preliminary term insurance, the reinsurance premium for the preliminary term period will be paid to Life Re at the same rate the Company charges for the policies on which reinsurance in Life Re is based less commissions at the percentage paid by the Company.
This rule applies to all benefits under the preliminary term insurance. For the first policy year after the preliminary term period, the premiums for all benefits will be computed at first year.
|
4.
|
Premium Taxes
|
The Company and Life Re agree that Life Re will not reimburse the Company for state premiums taxes on reinsurance premiums received from the Company.
|
5.
|
Payments
|
Premiums are payable annually in advance. If reinsurance is reduced, terminated, increased or reinstated during the year, pro-rata adjustment will be made by Life Re and the Company on all premium items except policy fees.
|
6.
|
Nonpayment of Reinsurance Premiums
|
Except as provided in Article X, 5., the payment of reinsurance premiums is a condition precedent to the liability of Life Re under Reinsured Policies. In the event of nonpayment of reinsurance premiums as provided in this Article, Life Re will have the right to terminate the reinsurance under all Reinsured Policies having reinsurance premiums in arrears.
|
7.
|
Misstatements
|
If the insured’s age or sex was misstated and the amount of insurance on the Company’s policies is adjusted, the Company and Life Re will share the adjustment in proportion to the amount of liability of each at the time of issue of the policies. Premiums will be recalculated for the correct age or sex and amounts according to the proportion as above and adjusted without interest. If the insured is still alive, the method above will be used for past years and the amount of reinsurance and premium adjusted for the future to the amount that would have been correct at issue.
ARTICLE VII
CLAIMS
|
1.
|
Notice
|
The Ceding Company shall give Life Re prompt notice of any claim. Copies of the proofs obtained by the Ceding Company together with a statement showing the amount due or paid on such claim by the Ceding Company shall be furnished to Life Re at the time payment is requested.
|
2.
|
Company’s Decision
|
Life Re shall accept the decision of the Ceding Company in settling the claim and shall pay its portion to the Ceding Company upon receipt of proof that the Ceding Company has paid the claimant. It is agreed, however, that if a lesser amount at risk is retained by the Ceding Company than the amount ceded to Life Re, the Ceding Company shall consult with Life Re concerning its investigation and/or payment of the claim, although the final decision shall be that of the Ceding Company.
|
3.
|
Contested Claims
|
The Ceding Company shall notify Life Re of its intention to contest, compromise, or litigate a claim involving reinsurance, and Life Re shall pay its share or the payment and specific claim expenses therein involved, unless it declines to be a party to the contest, compromise, or litigation in which case it shall pay the full amount of the reinsurance to the Ceding Company. “Claim expenses” shall be deemed to mean only the reasonable legal and investigative expenses connected with the litigation or settlement of claims. “Claim expenses” shall not include expenses incurred in connection with a dispute or contest arising out of conflicting claims of entitlement to policy proceeds which the Ceding Company admits are payable or any routine claim administrative expenses, Home Office or otherwise.
|
4.
|
Misstatements
|
In the event the amount of insurance provided by a policy or policies reinsured hereunder is increased or reduced because of a misstatement of age or sex established after the death of the insured, Life Re shall share in the increase or reduction in the proportion that the net liability of Life Re bore to the sum of the retained net liability of the Ceding Company and the net liability of other reinsurers immediately prior to such increase or reduction. The reinsurance with Life Re shall be written from commencement on the basis of the adjusted amounts using premiums and reserves at the correct ages and sex. The adjustment for the difference in premiums shall be made without interest.
|
5.
|
Payment
|
It is understood and agreed that the payment of a death claim by Life Re shall be made in one sum regardless of the mode of settlement under the policy of the Ceding Company.
|
6.
|
Extra-Contractual Damages
|
In no event shall Life Re have any liability for any Extra-Contractual damages which are assessed against the Ceding Company as a result of acts, omissions or course of conduct committed by the Ceding Company or its agents, other than a good faith decision to deny claim liability, in connection with insurance reinsured under this Agreement. It is recognized that there may be special circumstances involved which indicate that Life Re should participate in certain assessed damages. These circumstances are not amenable to advance specific definition, but could include those situations in which Life Re was an active party in the act, omission or course of conduct which ultimately results in the assessment of such damages. The extent of such participation will be determined on a good faith assessment of culpability in each case, but all factors being equal, the division of any such assessment will generally be in the proportion of net liability borne by each party.
|
7.
|
Disability Waiver or Premium Insurance
|
If a claim is approved for disability waiver of premium insurance reinsured under this Agreement, the Ceding Company shall continue to pay reinsurance premiums to Life Re. Life Re shall reimburse the Ceding Company Life Re’s share of the annual liability.
ARTICLE VIII
INSOLVENCY
All reinsurance under this Agreement will be paid by Life Re directly to the Company, its liquidator, receiver, or statutory successor, on the basis of the liability of the Company under the policy or policies reinsured without diminution because of the insolvency of the Company. In the event of the insolvency of the Company, the liquidator, receiver, or statutory successor of the Company will give written notice of a pending claim against the Company on any policy reinsured within a reasonable time after the claim is filed in the insolvency proceedings. While the claim is pending, Life Re may investigate and interpose, at its own expense, in the proceedings where the claim is to be adjudicated , any defenses which it may deem available to the Company or its liquidator, receiver or statutory successor. The expense incurred by Life Re will be charged, subject to court approval, against the Company as an expense of liquidation to the extent of a proportionate share of the benefit that accrues to the Company as a result of the defenses by Life Re. Where two or more reinsurers are involved and a majority in interest elect to defend a claim, the expense will be apportioned in accordance with the terms of the Reinsurance Agreement as if the expense had been incurred by the Company.
ARTICLE IX
ARBITRATION
Life Re and the Company intend that any dispute between them under or with respect to this Agreement be resolved without resort to any litigation. Accordingly, Life Re and the Company agree that they will negotiate diligently and in good faith to agree on a mutually satisfactory resolution of any such dispute; provided, however, that if any such dispute cannot be so resolved by them within sixty calendar days (or such longer period as the parties may agree) after commencing such negotiations, Life Re and the Company agree that they will submit such dispute to arbitration in the manner specified in, and such arbitration proceeding will be conducted in accordance with, the rules of the American Arbitration Association.
The arbitration hearing will be before a panel of three arbitrators, each of whom must be a present or former officer of a life insurance or life reinsurance company. Life Re and the Company will each appoint one arbitrator by written notification to the other party within thirty calendar days after the date of the mailing of the notification initiating the arbitration. These two arbitrators will then select the third arbitrator within sixty calendar days after the date of the mailing of the notification initiating arbitration.
If either Life Re or the Company fail to appoint an arbitrator, or should the two arbitrators be unable to agree upon the choice of a third arbitrator, the president of the American Arbitration Association or of its successor organization or (if necessary) the president of any similar organization designated by lot of Life Re and the Company within thirty calendar days after the request will appoint the necessary arbitrators.
The vote or approval of a majority of the arbitrators will decide any question considered by the arbitrators; provided, however, that if no two arbitrators reach the same decision, then the average of the two closest mathematical determinations will constitute the decision of all three arbitrators. The place of arbitration will be Stamford, Connecticut. Each decision (including without limitation each award) of the arbitrators will be final and binding on all parties and will be nonappealable, and (at the request of either of Life Re or the Company) any award of the arbitrators may be confirmed by a judgment entered by any court of competent jurisdiction. No such award or judgment will bear interest. Each party will be responsible for paying (a) all fees and expenses charged by its respective counsel, accountants, actuaries, and other representatives in conjunction with such arbitration and (b) one-half of the fees and expenses charged by each arbitrator.
ARTICLE X
GENERAL PROVISIONS
|
1.

4.

For this purpose, “Error” shall mean any clerical mistake made inadvertently, excluding errors of judgement and all other forms of error. For business reported but not covered under the provisions of this Agreement, Life Re shall be obligated only for the return of premium paid.
|
5.
|
Offset

ARTICLE XI
