ADMINISTRATION

SECTION 1.1Administration.

(a)Subject to Section 4.1(b) and (c), the Retrocedent shall retain full responsibility for the administration of the Retained Subject Business and the Retrocedent shall have full authority to determine liability on any Covered Losses in respect of the Retained Subject Business reinsured hereunder and may pay or settle such liabilities as it deems appropriate.

(b)The Retrocedent shall administer the Retained Subject Business in accordance with the terms of the SINT Contracts, applicable terms of this Agreement and the Claims Handling Guidelines, in compliance with Applicable Law and with reasonable standards of professional conduct and integrity, and due skill, care, diligence and practice. The Retrocedent shall ensure that it has adequate personnel available, who are trained and competent, to enable it to perform its obligations under this Agreement and that it uses adequate numbers of trained and competent personnel ([*****], in each case allocated to servicing the Subject Business, split between the Retained Subject Business and the Non-Retained Subject Business as reasonably required, and at all times [*****] service providers and third-party administrators (or comparable service providers or third-party administrators mutually acceptable to the Parties) remaining appointed in their current capacity in respect of the Subject Business with an oversight manager from the Retrocedent overseeing such delegation to [*****] service providers and third-party administrators (the “FTE Condition”)). In the event of a material breach of the FTE Condition by the Retrocedent (that remains uncured for ten (10) Business Days following written notification to the Retrocedent by the Retrocessionaire of such breach), the Retrocedent shall, at the Retrocedent’s cost, undertake their reasonable best efforts, in consultation and cooperation with the Retrocessionaire, to conduct and administer the Subject Business in accordance with the service standards applicable to the Retrocessionaire with respect to the Non-Retained Subject Business under the Administrative Services Agreement until such time as (i) the FTE Condition is met, (ii) the termination of this Agreement, or (iii) the transition of the Administrative Services from the Retrocedent to the Retrocessionaire pursuant to terms and subject to the conditions of the Administrative Services Agreement.

(c)The Retrocedent shall conduct and administer the Retained Subject Business and Non-Retained Subject Business (if applicable) in accordance with the principles in Exhibit E.

(d)Concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, the Retrocedent and the Administrator are entering into an Administrative Services Agreement whereby, on and after the date hereof, the Administrator shall administer the Non-Retained Subject Business on behalf of the Retrocedent, including the supervision of any third party administrators. In accordance with the terms of the Administrative Services Agreement and subject always to the Aggregate Limit, the Retrocedent shall pay from and correspondingly reduce the Funds Withheld Account by an amount equal to Covered Losses and after exhaustion of the Funds Withheld Account, withdrawals and payments shall be made in respect of the Covered Losses from the SINT Trust Account, without duplication. Where sums are due in currencies other than USD, such payments shall be made in any such currency and shall then be converted into USD at the rates set out in Exhibit D for the purposes of netting off Ultimate Net Losses from the Funds Withheld Account and for calculating the applicable reduction of the remaining Aggregate Limit. In the event of the termination of the Administrative Services Agreement in accordance with its terms, the Retrocedent may delegate any part or all of its rights and obligations to administer the Non-Retained Subject Business to an Affiliate of the Retrocedent or, with at least ten (10) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Retrocessionaire and the prior written consent of the Retrocessionaire (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld), to a third party administrator, in each case always subject to the provisions of Sections 4.1(b) and (c).

SECTION 1.2Reports and Settlements.

(a)The Administrator shall provide to the Retrocedent periodic accounting and other reports with respect to the Non-Retained Subject Business as specified in the Administrative Services Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, the Retrocessionaire shall, or shall cause the Administrator to, deliver to the Retrocedent within twenty (20) Business Days after the end of each calendar quarter during the term of this Agreement (i) an Accounting Report with respect to the Non-Retained Subject Business, (ii) a report of the Applicable Reserves for Major Losses for all periods ending on or prior to December 31, 2024, (iii) subject to receiving the Accounting Report under Section 4.2(b)(i) for the applicable period in accordance with this Agreement, a report of the Applicable Reserves for the Subject Business for all periods after December 31, 2024, (iv) the portion of the Funding Report with respect to Major Losses for all periods ending on or prior to December 31, 2024, and (v) the Funding Report for all periods after December 31, 2024 (collectively, the “Retrocessionaire’s Reports”). In the event that the Administrative Services Agreement is terminated and this Agreement remains in force, to the extent that the Retrocedent appoints a third-party to administer the Non-Retained Subject Business, the Retrocedent shall cause such third-party administrator to provide the Retrocessionaire’s Reports to the Retrocessionaire within the timeframes specified in this Agreement.

(b)The Retrocedent shall deliver to the Retrocessionaire within twenty (20) Business Days after the end of each calendar quarter during the term of this Agreement (i) an Accounting Report with respect to the Retained Subject Business, (ii) a combined Accounting Report with respect to the Subject Business (the “Subject Business Accounting Report”), (iii) for all periods ending on or prior to December 31, 2024, the data listed in Exhibit C as updated by mutual agreement of the Parties from time to time (the “Reserve Report”) including the report of the Applicable Reserves for Major Losses provided by the Retrocessionaire in accordance with Section 4.2(a)(ii), and (iv) for all periods ending on or prior to December 31, 2024, the Funding Report including the portion of the Funding

Report with respect to Major Losses provided by the Retrocessionaire in accordance with Section 4.2(a)(iv) (collectively, the “Retrocedent Reports” and collectively with the Retrocessionaire’s Reports, the “Reports”). For the avoidance of doubt, the Parties shall cooperate in good faith to transfer the responsibility for preparing the Reserve Report and the Funding Report from the Retrocedent to the Retrocessionaire by December 31, 2024.

(c)Each Party shall have twenty (20) Business Days after its receipt of the other Party’s Reports to review such reports and the calculations set forth therein (each such review period, the “Review Period”). In furtherance of such review, each Party shall provide the other Party and its Representatives with such reasonable access (including in-person and/or virtual access) to the employees and Representatives of the Party who are responsible for or knowledgeable about the information set forth in the respective Reports and to such workpapers and other information of the Party or independent accountants or actuaries relevant to the preparation of the respective Reports that the other Party or any of its Representatives may reasonably request; provided that such access does not unreasonably interfere with the conduct of the business of either Party; provided, further that the independent accountants and actuaries of any Party will not be obligated to make any work papers available to the other Party, unless and until the other Party has signed a customary agreement relating to such access to work papers in form and substance reasonably acceptable to such accountants and actuaries, as applicable. If a Party disagrees with any of the other Party’s Reports (including any amount or computation set forth therein), the disputing Party may, on or prior to the last day of the Review Period, deliver a notice of disagreement (a “Report Notice of Disagreement”) to the other Party which specifies in reasonable detail each item that the disputing Party in good faith disputes (each, a “Report Disputed Item”) and the amount in dispute for each such Report Disputed Item. If a Party does not deliver a Report Notice of Disagreement prior to the end of the applicable Review Period for a particular Report, then the respective Reports and the amounts set forth therein shall be final, binding and conclusive on the Parties.

(d)If a Report Notice of Disagreement is timely delivered pursuant to Section 4.2(c), the Parties shall, during the twenty (20) Business Days following the receipt of such Report Notice of Disagreement by the non-disputing Party (the “Report Resolution Period”), endeavor in good faith to reach mutual agreement on the Report Disputed Items. If, by the end of the Report Resolution Period, the Parties are unable to reach such agreement with respect to all of the Report Disputed Items, they shall promptly thereafter engage and submit the unresolved Report Disputed Items (the “Report Unresolved Items”) to the Actuarial Expert which shall promptly review the relevant Reports and the Report Unresolved Items. The Actuarial Expert shall issue its written determination with respect to each Report Unresolved Item within thirty (30) days after the Report Unresolved Items are submitted for review to the Actuarial Expert. Each Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to furnish to the Actuarial Expert such work papers, books, records and documents and other information pertaining to the Report Unresolved Items as the Actuarial Expert may request. The determination of the Actuarial Expert shall be final, binding and conclusive on the Parties. The fees, expenses and costs of the Actuarial Expert incurred in rendering any determination pursuant to this Section 4.2(d) shall be split equally between the Parties.

(e)Any payment, transfer or crediting of amounts due shall be made within fifteen (15) Business Days after agreement or determination (as applicable) of each Subject Business Accounting Report in accordance with this Section 4.2. Any balances due to the Retrocessionaire in connection with any quarterly settlement shall be payable by the Retrocedent to the Retrocessionaire, and any balances due to be paid by the Retrocessionaire in connection with any quarterly settlement shall be payable by the

Retrocessionaire to the Retrocedent. Payments not made by offset in the calculations set forth in the Subject Business Accounting Report shall be paid via electronic transfer of funds between the Retrocessionaire and the Retrocedent; provided, that amounts due from the Retrocessionaire to the Retrocedent shall first reduce the Funds Withheld Account, being treated as settled to that extent, and after exhaustion of the Funds Withheld Account, payments shall be paid by the Retrocessionaire in cash within the time period specified in the first sentence of this Section 4.2(e) or via withdrawal from the SINT Trust Account by the Retrocedent, in each case in accordance with Section 10.6(b) (provided, however, that nothing contained herein is intended to restrict or modify the rights of the Retrocedent to the SINT Trust Account as provided under Article X).

(ii)At such times, make available (or procure the availability of) adequate facilities to enable the Inspecting Party or any Governmental Authority (or any other person appointed by the Inspecting Party or any Governmental Authority) to inspect and copy any Books and Records and other information in the Inspected Party’s possession or control relating to the Subject Business (including related financial information);

(e)Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary and subject to legal and regulatory obligations of the Inspecting Party, the Inspected Party shall not be obligated to provide such access to any Books and Records or other information if the Inspected Party determines, in its reasonable judgment, that doing so would violate Applicable Law or a contract, agreement or obligation of confidentiality owing to a third party, jeopardize the protection of an attorney-client privilege, or expose the Inspected Party to liability for disclosure of sensitive or personal information, it being understood that the Inspected Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain waivers or make other arrangements (including redacting information) that would enable any such item to be provided to the Inspecting Party without violating such Applicable Law or impinging on the ability to assert such privilege.

Payments by the Retrocessionaire as set forth in this SECTION 8.1 shall be made directly to the Retrocedent or to the Insolvency Practitioner appointed in respect of the Retrocedent, except where this Agreement specifically provides another payee of such reinsurance in the event of the insolvency of the Retrocedent.

SECURITY

SECTION 1.1Security. The Retrocessionaire’s obligations under this Agreement to the Retrocedent shall be funded through set off against the Funds Withheld Account and once exhausted, by the SINT Trust Account. It is intended that the amounts in the Funds Withheld Account and the SINT Trust Account in aggregate shall equal [*****] of the Applicable Reserves, as calculated at the relevant Calculation Date, subject always to the Aggregate Limit less Covered Losses paid as of the relevant Calculation Date.

SECTION 1.2Establishment and Funding of the Trust Account.

(a)The Retrocessionaire shall establish a trust account with the Trustee (the “SINT Trust Account”), to be held for the benefit of the Retrocedent pursuant to the provisions of the SINT Trust Agreement. Upon the request of the Retrocessionaire and subject to the Retrocedent’s prior written consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld), the Parties agree to take all commercially reasonable steps to amend or replace the SINT Trust Agreement as soon as practicable so that alternative assets constitute Eligible Assets under the SINT Trust Agreement or any replacement trust agreement. The SINT Trust Account shall secure in part (and shall only secure) the obligations of the Retrocessionaire under this Agreement to the Retrocedent. In accordance with the terms set forth herein and in the SINT Trust Agreement, and subject to the provisions of SECTION 10.6 and SECTION 10.7, the Retrocessionaire shall ensure that the SINT Trust Account holds Eligible Assets in accordance with the terms hereof with an aggregate Market Value greater than or equal to the SINT Trust Funding Amount.

(b)The Retrocessionaire, prior to depositing assets with the Trustee, shall execute assignments or endorsements in blank, or transfer legal title to the Trustee of all shares, obligations or other assets requiring assignments so that the Retrocedent, or the Trustee upon the direction of the Retrocedent, may negotiate these assets without consent or signature from the Retrocessionaire or any other entity.

(c)On the date hereof, the Retrocessionaire shall transfer, for deposit into the SINT Trust Account, an amount equal to the Estimated Initial SINT Trust Funding Amount. The Retrocedent shall pay any adjustments in respect of the Estimated Net SINT Premium or the Estimated Roll Forward Premium Adjustment due to the Retrocessionaire under SECTION 2.4 of the Master Agreement to the SINT Trust Account, and the Retrocedent shall recognize any adjustments in respect of the Estimated Net SINT Premium or the Estimated Roll Forward Premium Adjustment due to the Retrocedent under SECTION 2.4 of the Master Agreement in the Funds Withheld Account.

SECTION 1.3Ongoing Funding of the SINT Trust Account. Following the agreement or determination of the Funding Report in accordance with Section 4.2, if the SINT Trust Funding Amount for any calendar quarter exceeds the sum of the aggregate Market Value of the Eligible Assets held in the SINT Trust Account (determined as of the applicable Calculation Date), the Retrocessionaire shall transfer Eligible Assets to the SINT Trust Account in the amount of such difference (a “top-up”) within fifteen (15) days after receipt of such report. If the aggregate Market Value of the Eligible Assets in the SINT Trust Account at the end of any calendar quarter exceeds an amount equal to the SINT Trust Funding Amount (determined on the applicable Calculation Date), the Retrocessionaire may withdraw assets from the SINT Trust Account in the amount of such difference.

SECTION 1.4Substitution of the SINT Trust Assets. The Retrocessionaire may, with the prior written consent of the Retrocedent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned and shall be deemed given if no objection is raised within five (5) Business Days of the Retrocessionaire requesting consent, substitute or exchange assets in the SINT Trust Account, provided (i) any assets to be so substituted or exchanged (the “Replacement Assets”) are Eligible Assets, (ii) the Replacement Assets are deposited in the SINT Trust Account on the day of the substitution or exchange and (iii) the aggregate Market Value of the Replacement Assets is at least equal to the aggregate Market Value of the assets being removed from the SINT Trust Account.

SECTION 1.6Withdrawal of SINT Trust Assets by the Retrocedent.

(a)The Parties agree that amounts credited to the Funds Withheld Account pursuant to Sections 3.1 and 9.3 from time to time shall be set off against the Retrocessionaire’s obligations hereunder in accordance with this Agreement and that the SINT Trust Assets may only be withdrawn by the Retrocedent, and utilized and applied by the Retrocedent, or any successor by operation of law of the Retrocedent including any liquidator or rehabilitator, receiver or conservator of the Retrocedent, without diminution because of insolvency on the part of the Retrocedent or the Retrocessionaire, for one (1) or more of the following purposes:

(i)Once the Funds Withheld Account balance has reduced to zero, to pay for the Retrocessionaire’s share of undisputed amounts due in respect of Covered

Losses (following agreement or determination of the Reports in accordance with Section 4.2) if the Retrocessionaire has not paid any such Covered Losses in cash out of its own account(s) in accordance with the requirements of Section 10.6(b) below;

(ii)Where the Retrocedent has received notification of the termination of the SINT Trust Account and where the Retrocessionaire’s entire obligations under this Agreement remain unliquidated and undischarged ten (10) days prior to the Termination Date, to fund an account with the Retrocedent in an amount at least equal to the deduction, for reinsurance ceded, from the Retrocedent’s liabilities for the Covered Losses; and

(iii)Once the Funds Withheld Account balance has reduced to zero, to pay any other undisputed amounts due and payable by the Retrocessionaire under this Agreement (following agreement or determination of the Reports in accordance with Section 4.2).

(b)Once the Funds Withheld Account balance has been reduced to zero, the Retrocessionaire shall pay its share of undisputed amounts due in respect of Covered Losses (following agreement or determination of the Reports in accordance with Section 4.2) to the Retrocedent in cash out of the Retrocessionaire’s own account(s) and then withdraw any resulting excess amounts in the SINT Trust Account after such payment of Covered Losses in accordance with Section 10.3. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Retrocessionaire shall have the right to notify the Retrocedent in writing that the Retrocessionaire will not make the relevant payments in cash out of the Retrocessionaire’s own account(s), in which case the Retrocedent shall permit the Retrocessionaire to liquidate certain assets in the SINT Trust Account within ten (10) Business Days of such notice, or any longer period as may mutually be agreed by the Parties, to generate cash in the SINT Trust Account for the Retrocedent to withdraw from the SINT Trust Account for the respective Covered Losses in accordance with Section 10.6(a)(i). For the purposes of the foregoing, to the extent there is not sufficient cash in the SINT Trust Account, the Retrocessionaire shall liquidate Eligible Assets in the SINT Trust Account in the following order to generate sufficient cash for the respective Covered Losses payment: (i) first, from any assets falling within the description of the “Sovereign and Quasi Governments” or “Investment Grade Corporate Bond” asset classes as set forth in the Investment Guidelines; and (ii) second, if no assets falling within the asset classes set forth in (i) remain in the SINT Trust Account at the relevant time, then from any letters of credit then remaining in the SINT Trust Account. All transaction costs incurred by the Retrocessionaire for the liquidation of any Eligible Assets as may be required under this Section 10.6(b) shall be borne by the SINT Trust Account. All payments required to be made by the Retrocessionaire to the Retrocedent pursuant to this Section 10.6(b) shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in writing by the Retrocedent.

(c)The Retrocedent shall return to the SINT Trust Account, within five (5) Business Days, assets withdrawn in excess of all amounts due under Sections 10.6(a)(i) and (iii), or, in the case of SECTION 10.6(a)(ii), assets that are subsequently determined not to be due. Any such excess amount shall at all times be held by the Retrocedent (or any successor by operation of law of the Retrocedent, including any liquidator, rehabilitator, receiver or conservator of the Retrocedent) in trust for the sole and exclusive benefit of the Retrocessionaire and be maintained in a segregated account, separate and apart from any assets of the Retrocedent for the sole purpose of funding the payments and reimbursements described in paragraphs (i) and (iii) of SECTION 10.6(a). The Retrocedent shall pay interest, which shall accrue and compound daily, in cash to the Retrocessionaire on the amount withdrawn equal to the actual amount of interest, dividends, and other income

earned on the assets in such segregated account until such amount is returned by the Retrocedent to the SINT Trust Account.

SECTION 1.7SINT Trust Termination. Promptly following termination of this Agreement and payment of the full amount due the Retrocedent and the Retrocessionaire, as applicable, the Retrocedent and the Retrocessionaire shall take all actions necessary to terminate the SINT Trust Agreement.

ARTICLE XI
SALVAGE AND SUBROGATION

SECTION 1.1Salvage and Subrogation. The Retrocessionaire shall be subrogated to all rights of the Retrocedent against any Person or other entity who may be legally responsible in damages constituting Covered Losses for which the Retrocessionaire shall actually pay, or become liable to pay, on or after the Effective Time (but only to the extent of the amount of payment by, or the amount of liability of, the Retrocessionaire). The Retrocedent hereby assigns, transfers and conveys to the Retrocessionaire any and all rights of the Retrocedent to any Salvage which were paid between the Valuation Date and the Effective Date.

SECTION 1.2Expenses. In determining the amount of salvage or subrogation, there shall first be deducted from any amount recovered the reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Retrocedent in effecting the recovery (including, without limitation, all court, arbitration, mediation or other dispute resolution costs, attorneys’ fees and expenses but excluding overhead, salaries and expenses of officers and employees of the Retrocedent and similar internal costs), except to the extent otherwise paid or reimbursed by the Retrocessionaire hereunder. All amounts recovered in connection with salvage and subrogation net of expenses pursuant to this SECTION 11.2 shall be referred to as “Salvage.”

REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS

SECTION 1.1Regulatory Requirements. It is understood and agreed that any term or condition required by the domiciliary Governmental Authority of the Retrocedent or the Retrocessionaire or under Applicable Law to be included in this Agreement, shall be deemed to be incorporated in this Agreement by reference. Furthermore, the Parties agree to cooperate in good faith to amend this Agreement or enter into other agreements or execute additional documents as needed to comply with Applicable Law and/or the requirements of the domiciliary Governmental Authority of either Party (at the cost of the Party requiring any such amendment). Nothing in this Section 12.1 shall require the Retrocessionaire to pay any amounts above the Aggregate Limit or post any additional collateral.

ARTICLE XIII
ERRORS AND OMISSIONS; REGULATORY MATTERS; COVENANTS; REINSURANCE CREDIT

SECTION 1.1Errors and Omissions. Inadvertent delays, errors or omissions made in connection with this Agreement or any transaction hereunder shall not relieve any Party

from any liability which would have attached had such delay, error or omission not occurred, provided that such error or omission is rectified as soon as possible after discovery by an officer of such Party, and provided, further, that the Party making such error or omission or responsible for such delay shall be responsible for any additional liability which attaches as a result. If (a) the failure of any Party to comply with any provision of this Agreement is unintentional or the result of a misunderstanding or oversight and (b) such failure to comply is promptly rectified after discovery, both Parties shall be restored as closely as possible to the positions they would have occupied if no error or oversight had occurred.

SECTION 1.2Cooperation. The Parties shall cooperate with each other in order to accomplish the objectives of this Agreement by furnishing any additional information and executing and delivering any additional documents and taking such other actions as may be reasonably requested by the other to further perfect or evidence the consummation of, or otherwise implement, any transaction contemplated by this Agreement or any Transaction Agreement, or to aid in the preparation of any regulatory filing or financial statement; provided, however, that any such additional documents must be reasonably satisfactory to each of the Parties and not impose upon either Party any material liability, risk, obligation, loss, cost or expense not contemplated by this Agreement or the Transaction Agreements to which it is a party.

SECTION 1.3Regulatory Matters.

(a)If the Retrocedent or the Retrocessionaire receives notice of, or otherwise becomes aware of, any inquiry, investigation, examination, audit, proceeding or action by Governmental Authorities relating to the reinsurance provided hereunder or any Transaction Agreement, the Retrocedent or the Retrocessionaire, as applicable, shall promptly notify the other Party thereof to the extent permitted under Applicable Law, whereupon the Parties shall cooperate in good faith to resolve such matter in a mutually satisfactory manner and shall act reasonably in light of the Parties’ respective interests in the matter at issue.

(b)At all times during the term of this Agreement, each Party respectively, agrees that it shall hold and maintain all licenses and authorizations required under Applicable Law to perform its respective obligations under this Agreement and the Transaction Agreements and shall comply in all material respects with all Applicable Law in connection with its performance of such obligations.

SECTION 1.4Reinsurance Credit. The Parties agree, at the Retrocedent’s cost and direction, to amend this Agreement or enter into other agreements or execute additional documents as reasonably needed to comply with the credit for reinsurance laws and regulations and/or the requirements of the domiciliary Governmental Authority of the Retrocedent, always provided that nothing in this Section 13.4 shall require the Retrocessionaire to pay any amounts above the Aggregate Limit or post any additional collateral.

ARTICLE XIV

expenses (including reasonable fees and expenses of attorneys and auditors) and damages (“Damages”) actually incurred by the Retrocedent to the extent resulting from or arising out of (a) any breach of the covenants or obligations of the Retrocessionaire contained in this Agreement and (b) any successful enforcement of this indemnity. Nothing herein shall be construed to require the Retrocessionaire to indemnify the Retrocedent to the extent any Damages are attributable to any acts or omissions on the part of the Retrocedent or any of its Affiliates or Representatives, unless any such Affiliate or Representative is acting at the express written direction or written request of the Retrocessionaire (or any of its Affiliates or Representatives).

SECTION 1.2Retrocedent’s Obligation to Indemnify.

Nothing herein shall be construed to require the Retrocedent to indemnify the Retrocessionaire to the extent any Damages are attributable to any acts or omissions on the part of the Retrocessionaire or any of its Affiliates or Representatives, unless any such Affiliate or Representative is acting at the express written direction or written request of the Retrocedent (or any of its Affiliates or Representatives).

SECTION 1.2Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including the Exhibits and Schedules hereto), the other Transaction Agreements and any other documents delivered

pursuant thereto, constitute the entire agreement among the Parties and their respective Affiliates with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior negotiations, discussions, writings, agreements and understandings, oral and written, among the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof.

SECTION 1.3Waiver and Amendment. This Agreement may be amended, superseded, cancelled, renewed or extended, and the terms hereof may be waived, only by an instrument in writing signed by the Parties hereto, or, in the case of a waiver, by the Party waiving compliance. 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 single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other such right, power or privilege. The failure of any Party to insist on compliance with any obligation contained in this Agreement or to exercise any right or remedy hereunder shall not constitute a waiver of any right or remedy contained herein nor stop any Party from thereafter demanding full and complete compliance nor prevent any Party from exercising such right or remedy in the future. No waiver of any breach of this Agreement shall be held to constitute a waiver of any other or subsequent breach.

SECTION 1.4Successors and Assigns. The rights and obligations of the Parties under this Agreement shall not be subject to assignment without the prior written consent of the other Party, and any attempted assignment without the prior written consent of the other Party shall be invalid ab initio. The terms of this Agreement shall be binding upon, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by and against, the successors and permitted assigns of the Parties.

SECTION 1.5Future Retrocession by the Retrocessionaire. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement and subject always to Applicable Law, the Retrocessionaire shall be permitted to retrocede any of its liabilities under this Agreement (a) without the consent of the Retrocedent to a retrocessionaire either (i) with an AM Best or S&P rating of A- or greater or (ii) that provides back-to-back collateral to the Retrocessionaire on terms equivalent to this Agreement in all material respects, or (b) with the consent of the Retrocedent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld), any other retrocessionaire.

SECTION 1.6Headings. The headings of the Sections and the Table of Contents have been inserted for convenience of reference only and shall not be deemed to constitute a part of this Agreement.

SECTION 1.7Dispute Resolution.

(a)Any dispute or difference arising out of or relating to this Agreement and the performance of the duties and obligations arising under the Agreement shall be settled by binding arbitration. If more than one (1) arbitration is initiated with respect to any of the Transaction Agreements, all such arbitration proceedings shall be consolidated into a single arbitration proceeding and administered under the first-initiated arbitration proceeding and shall occur in London, United Kingdom or another location if mutually agreed between the Parties. Subject to any express provisions of this Article XV, the arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association in accordance with its Commercial Arbitration Rules.

(b)The arbitration panel will consist of two (2) disinterested party-appointed arbitrators and an umpire. Arbitration shall be initiated by the delivery of a written notice of demand for arbitration by one (1) Party to the other sent by registered mail or its equivalent. Such notice of demand shall set out the reason for the request for arbitration.

(c)Each Party shall each choose an arbitrator and the two (2) so appointed shall then appoint an umpire. If either Party refuses or neglects to appoint an arbitrator within thirty (30) days after a request by the other to do so, the other Party may appoint both arbitrators. The two (2) arbitrators shall then agree on an impartial umpire within thirty (30) days of their appointment. The arbitrators and umpire shall be active or retired officers of insurance or reinsurance companies and disinterested in the Retrocedent, the Retrocessionaire and the outcome of the arbitration. Umpire candidates shall complete disclosure statements at the request of a Party.

(d)The arbitration hearings shall be held in London, United Kingdom or another location if mutually agreed between the Parties. Each Party shall submit its case to the arbitration panel within sixty (60) days of the appointment of the umpire or within such longer periods as may be agreed by the Parties or directed by the arbitration panel.

(e)Each Party shall pay the fees and expenses of its own arbitrator. The Parties shall equally divide the fees and expenses of the umpire and other expenses of the arbitration, unless such fees and expenses are otherwise allocated by the arbitration panel. The arbitration panel is precluded from awarding punitive, treble or exemplary damages, however denominated, provided however that in the event the relief sought by a Party includes indemnification for punitive, treble or exemplary damages paid or incurred by that Party, such amounts may be included in any award rendered by the panel. The panel shall have the power to award reasonable attorneys’ fees to either Party, including fees incurred in connection with the arbitration or any litigation commenced to stay or dismiss arbitration.

(f)Except as expressly permitted by this Agreement, no Party will commence or voluntarily participate in any court action or proceeding concerning a dispute, except (x) for enforcement pursuant to the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §§ 1 et seq., (y) to restrict or vacate an arbitral decision based on the grounds specified under Applicable Law, or (z) for interim relief as provided in paragraph (g) below.

(g)Notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary herein, each Party acknowledges that the breach of certain obligations in this Agreement may cause irreparable injury and damages, which may be difficult to ascertain. Without regard to paragraph (a) above, each Party immediately shall be entitled to injunctive or equitable relief with respect to such breaches by the other Party and each of the Parties acknowledges and agrees that it shall not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief when expressly available pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and hereby waives the defense that the other Party has an adequate remedy at law and any requirement under Applicable Law requiring the posting of a bond. This provision shall not in any way limit such other remedies as may be available to any Party at law or in equity.

SECTION 1.8Governing Law. This Agreement and any dispute arising hereunder shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, without regard to such state’s principles of conflict of laws that could compel the application of the laws of another jurisdiction.

SECTION 1.9Service of Suit.

(a)Nothing in this SECTION 15.9 will be construed to override the provision of SECTION 15.7. This Section is intended as an aid to compelling arbitration, or enforcing such arbitration, or arbitral award, and not as an alternative to SECTION 15.7 for resolving disputes arising out of this Agreement.

(b)In the event of the failure of the Retrocedent to perform their obligations hereunder, the Retrocedent, at the request of the Retrocessionaire, shall submit to the jurisdiction of a court of competent jurisdiction within the United States. Nothing in this Article XV constitutes, or should be understood to constitute, a waiver of the Retrocedent’s rights to commence an action in any court of competent jurisdiction in the United States, to remove an action to a United States District Court, or to seek a transfer of a case to another court as permitted by the laws of the United States or any state in the United States. The Retrocedent, once the appropriate court is selected, whether such court is the one originally chosen by the Retrocessionaire and accepted by the Retrocedent or is determined by removal, transfer, or otherwise, as provided for above, shall comply with all requirements necessary to give said court jurisdiction and, in any suit instituted against the Retrocedent upon this Agreement, shall abide by the final decision of such court or of any appellate court in the event of an appeal.

(c)Unless the Retrocedent designates a different party in writing, service of process in such suit may be made upon Xxxxx Xxxxx LLP, 0000 Xxxxxx xx xxx Xxxxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx, 00000-00000, which is hereby authorized and directed to accept service of process on behalf of the Retrocedent in any such suit.

(d)In the event of the failure of the Retrocessionaire to perform its obligations hereunder, the Retrocessionaire, at the request of the Retrocedent, shall submit to the jurisdiction of a court of competent jurisdiction within the United States. Nothing in this Article XV constitutes, or should be understood to constitute, a waiver of the Retrocessionaire’s rights to commence an action in any court of competent jurisdiction in the United States, to remove an action to a United States District Court, or to seek a transfer of a case to another court as permitted by the laws of the United States or any state in the United States. The Retrocessionaire, once the appropriate court is selected, whether such court is the one originally chosen by the Retrocedent and accepted by the Retrocessionaire or is determined by removal, transfer, or otherwise, as provided for above, shall comply with all requirements necessary to give said court jurisdiction and, in any suit instituted against the Retrocessionaire upon this Agreement, shall abide by the final decision of such court or of any appellate court in the event of an appeal.

(e)Unless the Retrocessionaire designates a different party in writing, service of process in such suit may be made upon Universal Registered Agents, Inc., 00 Xxxxxxxx Xxxx, Xxxx Xxxxxxxxx, XX 00000, which is hereby authorized and directed to accept service of process on behalf of the Retrocessionaire in any such suit.

SECTION 1.10No Third Party Beneficiaries. Nothing in this Agreement is intended or shall be construed to give any Person, other than the Parties, any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or in respect of this Agreement or any provision contained herein.

SECTION 1.11Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by the Parties in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument binding upon all of the Parties notwithstanding the fact that all Parties are not signatory to the original or the same counterpart. Each counterpart may consist of a number of copies hereof each signed by less than all, but together signed by all of the Parties. Each counterpart may be delivered by facsimile, email (with PDF attachment), Docusign or other electronic transmission, which shall be deemed delivery of an originally executed document.

SECTION 1.12Severability. Any term or provision of this Agreement which is invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to that jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability without rendering invalid or unenforceable the remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement or affecting the validity or enforceability of any of the terms and provisions of this Agreement in any other jurisdiction, so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any Party. If any provision of this Agreement is so broad as to be unenforceable, that provision shall be interpreted to be only so broad as is enforceable. In the event of such invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision of this Agreement, the Parties shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to reform such terms or provisions to carry out the commercial intent of the Parties as reflected herein, while curing the circumstance giving rise to the invalidity or unenforceability of such term or provision.

SECTION 1.13No Offset. Save for any amounts offset in the Subject Business Accounting Report under Section 4.2(e) and in relation to the Funds Withheld Account where amounts due from the Retrocessionaire are set off against the Funds Withheld Account Balance until exhausted, neither Party may offset any amount due to the other Party or any such other Party’s Affiliates under this Agreement against any amounts owed or alleged to be owed from such other Party or its Affiliates under this Agreement.

SECTION 1.14Currency. All financial data required to be provided pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall be expressed in USD. All payments and all settlements of account between the Parties shall be in United States currency unless otherwise agreed by the Parties. Except as specifically provided in any of the Transaction Agreements, all calculations of liabilities, payments of claims, or reserves, including without limitation for the purposes of calculating the Aggregate Limit, Applicable Reserves, Net SINT Premium and Ultimate Net Loss shall be converted into USD at the Contract Exchange Rate.

SECTION 1.15International Trade Sanctions. The Retrocessionaire shall not be deemed to provide cover, and the Retrocessionaire shall not be liable to pay any claim or pay any benefit hereunder, to the extent that the provision of such cover, payment of such claim or provision of such benefit would expose the Retrocessionaire to any sanction, prohibition or restriction under United Nations resolutions or the trade or economic sanctions, laws or regulations of any jurisdiction applicable to the Retrocessionaire.

SECTION 1.16Interpretation. Interpretation of this Agreement shall be governed by the following rules of construction: (a) words in the singular shall be held to include the plural and vice versa (including, without limitation, with respect to terms which are defined in Article I or elsewhere in this Agreement), and words of one gender shall be held to include the other gender as the context requires; (b) references to the terms Article, Section, paragraph, Exhibits and Schedules are references to the Articles, Sections, paragraphs, Exhibits and Schedules to this Agreement unless otherwise specified; (c) the terms “hereof,” “herein,” “hereby,” “hereto,” and derivative or similar words refer to this entire Agreement, including the Exhibits and Schedules hereto; (d) references to “$” or “USD” shall mean United States dollars; (e) the word “including” and words of similar import when used in this Agreement shall mean “including without limitation,” unless otherwise specified; (f) the word “or” shall not be exclusive; (g) except as otherwise provided herein, references to “written” or “in writing” include in electronic form; (h) the headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement; (i) a reference to any Person includes such Person’s successors and permitted assigns; (j) a reference to an agreement or other document includes amendments or restatements of such agreement or other

document; (k) any reference to “days” means calendar days unless Business Days are expressly specified; and (l) when calculating the period of time before which, within which or following which any act is to be done or step taken pursuant to this Agreement, the date that is the reference date in calculating such period shall be excluded, if the last day of such period is not a Business Day, the period shall end on the next succeeding Business Day. This Agreement shall take precedence over any Schedules hereto, to the extent of any conflict.

SECTION 1.17Representation. Each Party represents and warrants to the others that it has full authority to enter into this Agreement upon the terms and conditions hereof and that the individual executing this Agreement on its behalf has the requisite authority to bind such Party to this Agreement, and that the Agreement constitutes a binding obligation of such party enforceable in accordance with its terms.
