Whenever the word "Company" is used in this Contract, such term shall be held to include:

Any or all of the affiliated insurance companies of Homeowners of America Insurance Company, which are or may hereafter be under common control, provided that notice be given to the Reinsurer of any such newly affiliated insurance companies which may hereafter come under common control as soon as practicable with full particulars as to how such affiliation is likely to affect this Contract; and

Its Quota Share Reinsurers whose Participation Slips are attached hereto (hereinafter referred to as the "Quota Share Reinsurers").

In the event of the Company or the Reinsurer maintaining that such affiliation calls for alteration in existing terms, and an agreement for alteration not being arrived at, then the business of such newly affiliated insurance company is covered at existing terms only for a period of 45 days after notice by either party that it does not wish to cover such business.

Article 2 -

Commencement and Termination

A.	This Contract shall become effective at 12:01 a.m., Central Standard Time, April 1, 2015, with respect to losses arising out of loss occurrences commencing at or after that time and date, and shall remain in force until 12:01 a.m., Central Standard Time, April 1, 2016.

B.	Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph A above, the Company may terminate a Subscribing Reinsurer's percentage share in this Contract in the event any of the following circumstances occur as clarified by public announcement or upon discovery:

The Subscribing Reinsurer's policyholders' surplus (or its equivalent under the Subscribing Reinsurer's accounting system) after the earlier of: (a) the inception of this Contract, or (b) the date lines are bound for this Contract, has been reduced by more than 20.0% of the amount of surplus (or the applicable equivalent) 12 months prior to that date; or

The Subscribing Reinsurer's policyholders' surplus (or its equivalent under the Subscribing Reinsurer's accounting system) at any time between the earlier of: (a) the inception of this Contract, or (b) the date lines are bound for this Contract, and the date of termination of this Contract has been reduced by more than 20.0% of the amount of surplus (or the applicable equivalent) at the date of the Subscribing Reinsurer's most recent financial statement filed with regulatory authorities and available to the public as of the date lines are bound; or

A State Insurance Department or other legal authority has ordered the Subscribing Reinsurer to cease assuming business; or

The Subscribing Reinsurer has become insolvent or has been placed into liquidation, receivership, supervision, administration, winding-up or under a scheme of arrangement, or similar proceedings (whether voluntary or involuntary) or proceedings have been instituted against the Subscribing Reinsurer for the appointment of a receiver, liquidator, rehabilitator, supervisor, administrator, conservator or trustee in bankruptcy, or other agent known by whatever name, to take possession of its assets or control of its operations; or

The Subscribing Reinsurer has reinsured its entire liability under this Contract without the Company's prior written consent; or

The A.M. Best's rating for the Subscribing Reinsurer has been assigned or downgraded below A- (inclusive of "Not Rated" ratings), or the published rating issued by Standard & Poor's has been downgraded below BBB+ (inclusive of "Not Rated" ratings); or

The Subscribing Reinsurer has ceased assuming new or renewal property or casualty treaty reinsurance business.

In the event a Subscribing Reinsurer experiences one or more of the circumstances specified in paragraph B above, the Subscribing Reinsurer shall notify the Company as promptly as possible and shall hereinafter be referred to as a "Special Circumstance Reinsurer." To terminate a Special Circumstance Reinsurer's percentage share in this Contract, the Company must provide the Special Circumstance Reinsurer with written notice as set forth in the Notices and Contract Execution Article. Such notice shall include the effective date of termination as selected by the Company and shall be one of the following:

The date of written notice provided by the Special Circumstance Reinsurer; or

In the event the Subscribing Reinsurer fails to immediately provide written notice to the Company of any event outlined in subparagraphs 1 through 8 of paragraph B above, the Company may elect to substitute the date of public announcement or discovery as the equivalent of written notice.

If any Subscribing Reinsurer's percentage share in this Contract is terminated or if this Contract expires while a loss occurrence covered hereunder is in progress, the Reinsurer's liability hereunder shall, subject to the other terms and conditions of this Contract, be determined as if the entire loss occurrence had occurred prior to the termination or expiration of this Contract, provided that no part of such loss occurrence is claimed against any renewal or replacement of this Contract.

Loss or damage caused by or resulting from war, invasion, hostilities, acts of foreign enemies, civil war, rebellion, insurrection, military or usurped power, or martial law or confiscation by order of any government or public authority, but this exclusion shall not apply to loss or damage covered under a standard policy with a standard War Exclusion Clause.

Loss or liability excluded under the provisions of the "Pools, Associations and Syndicates Exclusion Clause" attached to and forming part of this Contract.

All liability of the Company arising by contract, operation of law, or otherwise, from its participation or membership, whether voluntary or involuntary, in any insolvency fund.

Loss or damage to growing or standing crops.

Pollution and seepage coverages excluded under the provisions of the "Pollution and Seepage Exclusion Clause (BRMA 39A)" attached to and forming part of this Contract.

11.

Loss, damage, cost or expense arising from fungi unless directly or indirectly caused by or contributed to by or arising from a covered peril under the Company's original policy.

12.

13.

B.	Any exclusion set forth in paragraph A (except exclusions set forth in subparagraphs 1, 2, 3, 5, 6 and 9) shall be waived automatically when, in the opinion of the Company, the exposure excluded therein is incidental to the principal exposure on the risk in question.

If the Company is bound, without the knowledge and contrary to the instructions of the Company's supervisory underwriting personnel, on any business falling within the scope of one or more of the exclusions set forth in paragraph A (except exclusions set forth in subparagraphs 1, 2, 3, 5, 6 and 9), the exclusion shall be suspended with respect to such business until 30 days after an underwriting supervisor of the Company acquires knowledge thereof or until the minimum amount of time required by the applicable statute or regulatory authority to cancel such a policy has elapsed, whichever is greater.

If the Company is required to accept an assigned risk which conflicts with one or more of the exclusions set forth in paragraph A (except exclusions set forth in subparagraphs 1, 2, 3, 5, 6 and 9), reinsurance shall apply, but only for the difference between the Company's retention and the minimum limit required by the applicable state statute, and in no event shall the Reinsurer's liability exceed the applicable limits set forth in the Retention and Limit and Reinstatement Articles.

Article 5 -

Special Acceptances

From time to time the Company may request a special acceptance of reinsurance falling outside the scope of the provisions of this Contract (except as respects the exclusions set forth in subparagraphs 1, 2, 3, 5, 6 and 9 of the Exclusions Article). Within five days of receipt of such a request, each Subscribing Reinsurer shall accept such request, ask for additional information, or reject the request. Any reinsurance that is specially accepted by the Reinsurer shall be covered under this Contract and shall be subject to the terms hereof, except as such terms shall be modified by the special acceptance. If a Subscribing Reinsurer fails to respond to a special acceptance request within five days, the Subscribing Reinsurer will be deemed to have agreed to the special acceptance.

If Subscribing Reinsurers under each excess layer with percentage shares totaling more than 50.0% in the interests and liabilities of the Reinsurer for that excess layer agree to a special acceptance, such special acceptance shall be binding on all Subscribing Reinsurers with respect to their respective shares for that excess layer. If such percentage agreement is not achieved, such special acceptance shall be made to the excess layer only with respect to the interests and liabilities of each Subscribing Reinsurer for that excess layer that agrees to the special acceptance.

In the event a reinsurer becomes a party to this Contract subsequent to one or more special acceptances hereunder, the new reinsurer shall automatically accept such special acceptance(s) as being covered hereunder. Further, if one or more Subscribing Reinsurers under this Contract agreed to special acceptance(s) under the contract being replaced by this Contract, such special acceptance(s) shall be automatically covered hereunder with respect to the interests and liabilities of such Subscribing Reinsurer(s).

Retention and Limit

As respects each excess layer of reinsurance coverage provided by this Contract, the Company shall retain and be liable for the first amount of ultimate net loss, shown as "Company's Retention" for that excess layer in Schedule A attached hereto, arising out of each loss occurrence. The Reinsurer shall then be liable, as respects each excess layer, for the amount by which such ultimate net loss exceeds the Company's applicable retention, but the liability of the Reinsurer under each excess layer shall not exceed the amount, shown as "Reinsurer's Per Occurrence Limit" for that excess layer in Schedule A attached hereto, as respects any one loss occurrence.

In the event all or any portion of the reinsurance under any excess layer of reinsurance coverage provided by this Contract is exhausted by loss, the amount so exhausted shall be reinstated immediately from the time the loss occurrence commences hereon. For each amount so reinstated, the Company agrees to pay additional premium in accordance with the provisions of the Reinsurance Premium Article.

B.	Notwithstanding anything stated herein, the liability of the Reinsurer under any excess layer of reinsurance coverage provided by this Contract shall not exceed either of the following:

The amount, shown as "Reinsurer's Per Occurrence Limit" for that excess layer in Schedule A attached hereto, as respects loss or losses arising out of any one loss occurrence; or

The amount, shown as "Reinsurer's Term Limit" for that excess layer in Schedule A attached hereto, in all during the term of this Contract.

B.	"Loss in excess of policy limits" and "extra contractual obligations" as used herein shall mean:

"Loss in excess of policy limits" shall mean 90.0% of any amount paid or payable by the Company in excess of its policy limits, but otherwise within the terms of its policy, such loss in excess of the Company's policy limits arising from the handling of any claim on business covered hereunder; such liabilities arising, because of, but not limited to, failure by the Company to settle within the policy limits or by reason of the Company's alleged or actual negligence, fraud or bad faith in rejecting an offer of settlement or in the preparation of the defense or in the trial of an action against its insured or reinsured or in the preparation or prosecution of an appeal consequent upon such an action.

"Extra contractual obligations" shall mean 90.0% of any punitive, exemplary, compensatory or consequential damages paid or payable by the Company, not covered by any other provision of this Contract and which arise from the handling of any claim on business subject to this Contract, such liabilities arising because of, but not limited to, failure by the Company to settle within the policy limits or by reason of the Company's alleged or actual negligence, fraud or bad faith in rejecting an offer of settlement or in the preparation of the defense or in the trial of an action against its insured or reinsured or in the preparation or prosecution of an appeal consequent upon such an action. An extra contractual obligation shall be deemed, in all circumstances, to have occurred on the same date as the loss covered or alleged to be covered under the policy.

Notwithstanding anything stated herein, this Contract shall not apply to any loss in excess of policy limits or any extra contractual obligation incurred by the Company as a result of any fraudulent and/or criminal act by any officer or director of the Company acting individually or collectively or in collusion with any individual or corporation or any other organization or party involved in the presentation, defense or settlement of any claim covered hereunder.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that reinsurance, if any, effected by the Quota Share Reinsurers (except as respects reinsurance assumed by the Quota Share Reinsurers covering business set forth in the Classes of Business Reinsured Article) shall not be taken into account in computing the ultimate net loss, nor in any way affect the amount recoverable hereunder.

"Loss occurrence" as used herein shall mean the sum of all individual losses directly occasioned by any one disaster, accident or loss or series of disasters, accidents or losses arising out of one event which occurs within the area of one state of the United States or province of Canada and states or provinces contiguous thereto and to one another. However, the duration and extent of any one "loss occurrence" shall be limited to all individual losses sustained by the Company occurring during any period of 168 consecutive hours arising out of and directly occasioned by the same event, except that the term "loss occurrence" shall be further defined as follows:

As regards windstorm, hail, tornado, hurricane, cyclone, including ensuing collapse and water damage, all individual losses sustained by the Company occurring during any period of 120 consecutive hours arising out of and directly occasioned by the same event. However, the event need not be limited to one state or province or states or provinces contiguous thereto.

As regards riot, riot attending a strike, civil commotion, vandalism and malicious mischief, all individual losses sustained by the Company occurring during any period of 72 consecutive hours within the area of one municipality or county and the municipalities or counties contiguous thereto arising out of and directly occasioned by the same event. The maximum duration of 72 consecutive hours may be extended in respect of individual losses which occur beyond such 72 consecutive hours during the continued occupation of an assured's premises by strikers, provided such occupation commenced during the aforesaid period.

As regards earthquake (the epicenter of which need not necessarily be within the territorial confines referred to in the introductory portion of this paragraph) and fire following directly occasioned by the earthquake, only those individual fire losses which commence during the period of 168 consecutive hours may be included in the Company's "loss occurrence."

As regards "freeze," only individual losses directly occasioned by collapse, breakage of glass and water damage (caused by bursting of frozen pipes and tanks or freezing and/or melting snow or sleet) may be included in the Company's "loss occurrence."

As regards firestorms, brush fires and any other fires or series of fires, irrespective of origin (except as provided in subparagraphs 2 and 3 above), all individual losses sustained by the Company which commence during any period of 168 consecutive hours within a 150-mile radius of any fixed point selected by the Company may be included in the Company's "loss occurrence." However, an individual loss subject to this subparagraph cannot be included in more than one "loss occurrence."

For all those "loss occurrences" other than those referred to in subparagraph 2 of paragraph A above, the Company may choose the date and time when any such period of consecutive hours commences, provided that it is not earlier than the date and time of the occurrence of the first recorded individual loss sustained by the Company arising out of that disaster, accident or loss, and provided that only one such period of 168 consecutive hours shall apply with respect to one event, except for any loss occurrence referred to in subparagraph 1 of paragraph A above where only one such period of 120 consecutive hours shall apply with respect to one event.

As respects those "loss occurrences" referred to in subparagraph 2 of paragraph A above, if the disaster, accident or loss occasioned by the event is of greater duration than 72 consecutive hours, then the Company may divide that disaster, accident or loss into two or more "loss occurrences," provided no two periods overlap and no individual loss is included in more than one such period and provided that no period commences earlier than the date and time of the occurrence of the first recorded individual loss sustained by the Company arising out of that disaster, accident or loss.

It is understood that losses arising from a combination of two or more perils as a result of the same event shall be considered as having arisen from one "loss occurrence." Notwithstanding the foregoing, the hourly limitations as stated in paragraph A shall not be exceeded as respects the applicable perils and no single "loss occurrence" shall encompass a time period greater than 168 consecutive hours.

Article 11 -

Loss Notices and Settlements

A.	Whenever losses paid or reserved by the Company appear likely, in the opinion of the Company, to result in a claim hereunder, the Company shall notify the Reinsurer, and the Company shall notify the Reinsurer of all subsequent developments that may materially affect the position of the Reinsurer.

B.	The Company alone and at its full discretion shall adjust, settle or compromise all claims and losses subject to this Contract. The Reinsurer shall be bound by the judgment of the Company as to the obligations and liabilities of the Company under any policy.

All loss settlements made by the Company, whether under strict policy terms or by way of compromise (including loss in excess of policy limits and extra contractual obligations) shall be binding upon the Reinsurer, and the Reinsurer agrees to pay or allow, as the case may be, all amounts for which it may be liable immediately upon receipt of reasonable evidence of the amount paid (or scheduled to be paid) by the Company. The Company shall be the sole judge as to:

What constitutes a claim or loss covered under any policy;

The Company's liability thereunder;

The amount or amounts proper for the Company to pay thereunder.

A Special Circumstance Reinsurer shall not have the right to deny payment of a claim under any excess layer hereunder if the sum of the percentage shares of Active Subscribing Reinsurers that have paid the claim under that excess layer exceeds 50.0% of the sum of the percentage shares of all Active Subscribing Reinsurers for that excess layer. "Active Subscribing Reinsurer" as used herein shall mean a Subscribing Reinsurer that is not a Special Circumstance Reinsurer as of the due date of the claim (as specified in the Late Payments Article).

Article 12 -

Xxxxxxx and Subrogation

The Reinsurer shall be credited with salvage (i.e., reimbursement obtained or recovery made by the Company, less the actual cost, excluding salaries of officials and employees of the Company and sums paid to attorneys as retainer, of obtaining such reimbursement or making such recovery) on account of claims and settlements involving reinsurance hereunder. Salvage thereon shall always be used to reimburse the excess carriers in the reverse order of their priority according to their participation before being used in any way to reimburse the Company for its primary loss. The Company hereby agrees to enforce its rights to salvage or subrogation relating to any loss, a part of which loss was sustained by the Reinsurer, and to prosecute all claims arising out of such rights if, in the Company's opinion, it is reasonable to do so.

Article 13 -

Reinsurance Premium

A.	As premium for each excess layer of reinsurance coverage provided by this Contract, the Company shall pay the Reinsurer the greater of the following:

The amount, shown as "Annual Minimum Premium" for that excess layer in Schedule A attached hereto; or

The percentage, shown as "Premium Rate" for that excess layer in Schedule A attached hereto, of the Company's net earned premium for the term of this Contract.

The Company shall pay the Reinsurer an annual deposit premium for each excess layer of the amount, shown as "Annual Deposit Premium" for that excess layer in Schedule A attached hereto, in four equal installments of the amount, shown as "Quarterly Deposit Premium" for that excess layer in Schedule A attached hereto, on April 1, July 1 and October 1 of 2015 and January 1 of 2016.

Within 45 days after the expiration of this Contract, the Company shall provide a report to the Reinsurer setting forth the premium due hereunder for each excess layer, computed in accordance with paragraph A above, and any additional premium due the Reinsurer or return premium due the Company for each such excess layer shall be remitted promptly.

D.	For each amount of limit reinstated for each excess layer in accordance with the Reinstatement Article, the Company agrees to pay additional premium equal to the product of the following:

The percentage of the occurrence limit for the excess layer reinstated (based on the loss paid by the Reinsurer under that excess layer); times

The earned reinsurance premium, as calculated in accordance with paragraph C above, for the excess layer reinstated for the term of this Contract (exclusive of reinstatement premium).

Whenever the Company requests payment by the Reinsurer of any loss under any excess layer hereunder, the Company shall submit a statement to the Reinsurer of reinstatement premium due the Reinsurer for that excess layer. If the earned reinsurance premium for any excess layer for the term of this Contract has not been finally determined as of the date of any such statement, the calculation of reinstatement premium due for that excess layer shall be based on the annual deposit premium for that excess layer and shall be readjusted when the earned reinsurance premium for that excess layer for the term of this Contract has been finally determined. Any reinstatement premium shown to be due the Reinsurer for any excess layer as reflected by any such statement (less prior payments, if any, for that excess layer) shall be payable by the Company concurrently with payment by the Reinsurer of the requested loss for that excess layer. Any return reinstatement premium shown to be due the Company shall be remitted by the Reinsurer as promptly as possible after receipt and verification of the Company's statement.

In the event a Subscribing Reinsurer's participation in this Contract is terminated under the provisions of paragraph B of the Commencement and Termination Article, no deposit premium shall be due after the effective date of termination, the minimum premium shall be waived, and the reinsurance premium and reinstatement premium, if applicable, will be calculated in accordance with the following formulas:

Reinsurance premium shall be the number of days the Subscribing Reinsurer participates on this Contract divided by the number of days of the original term of this Contract and the quotient thereof shall be multiplied by the Subscribing Reinsurer's percentage share of the final adjusted premium reported in accordance with paragraph C above.

Reinstatement premium shall be the product of subparagraphs D(1) and F(1) above.

In the event the incurred loss for an excess layer in Schedule A attached hereto is greater than the sum of subparagraphs F(1) and F(2) above that is applicable to the same excess layer, in lieu of the provisions of subparagraphs F(1) and F(2) above, the Subscribing Reinsurer will receive premium equal to the lesser of:

An amount equal to the Subscribing Reinsurer's percentage share of the full reinsurance premium calculated in accordance with paragraph A (without regard to the termination of the Subscribing Reinsurer's share in accordance with the provisions of the Commencement and Termination Article) plus any reinstatement premium calculated in accordance with subparagraph F(2) above; or

b.	The Subscribing Reinsurer's percentage share of the incurred loss for the same excess layer.

Within 45 days after the termination of a Subscribing Reinsurer's participation in this Contract as set forth above, the Company shall provide a report to the Subscribing Reinsurer setting forth the premium due hereunder for each excess layer, computed in accordance with paragraph F above, and any additional premium due the Subscribing Reinsurer or return premium due the Company for each such excess layer shall be remitted promptly.

H.	"Net earned premium" as used herein shall mean gross earned premium of the Company for the classes of business reinsured hereunder, less the earned portion of premiums ceded by the Company for reinsurance which inures to the benefit of this Contract.

"Incurred loss" as used herein shall mean the Company's ceded ultimate net loss plus the Company's ceded outstanding loss and loss adjustment expense reserves (including all case reserves plus any reasonable amount estimated to be unreported from known loss occurrences as established by the Company).

Article 14 -

Sanctions

Neither the Company nor any Subscribing Reinsurer shall be liable for premium or loss under this Contract if it would result in a violation of any mandatory sanction, prohibition or restriction under United Nations resolutions or the trade or economic sanctions, laws or regulations of the European Union, United Kingdom or United States of America that are applicable to either party.

Article 15 -

Late Payments

A.	The provisions of this Article shall not be implemented unless specifically invoked, in writing, by one of the parties to this Contract.

In the event any premium, loss or other payment due either party is not received by the intermediary named in the Intermediary Article (hereinafter referred to as the "Intermediary") by the payment due date, the party to which payment is due may, by notifying the Intermediary in writing, require the debtor party to pay, and the debtor party agrees to pay, an interest charge on the amount past due calculated for each such payment on the last business day of each month as follows:

The number of full days which have expired since the due date or the last monthly calculation, whichever the lesser; times

1/365th of the sum of 4.0% and the U.S. prime rate as quoted in The Wall Street Journal on the first business day of the month for which the calculation is made; times

The amount past due, including accrued interest.

It is agreed that interest shall accumulate until payment of the original amount due plus interest charges have been received by the Intermediary.

Notwithstanding the provisions of subparagraph 2 above and the immediately preceding sentence, the interest rate for a Special Circumstance Reinsurer will increase by 1.0% for every month that payment of the claim is past due, subject to a maximum annual interest rate of 10.0%.

If the interest rate provided under this Article exceeds the maximum interest rate allowed by any applicable law or is held unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, such interest rate shall be modified to the highest rate permitted by the applicable law, and all remaining provisions of this Article and Contract shall remain in full force and effect without being impaired or invalidated in any way.

D.	The establishment of the due date shall, for purposes of this Article, be determined as follows:

As respects the payment of routine deposits and premiums due the Reinsurer, the due date shall be as provided for in the applicable section of this Contract. In the event a due date is not specifically stated for a given payment, it shall be deemed due 30 days after the date of transmittal by the Intermediary of the initial billing for each such payment.

Any claim or loss payment due the Company hereunder shall be deemed due 30 days after the proof of loss or demand for payment is transmitted to the Reinsurer. If such loss or claim payment is not received within the 30 days, interest will accrue on the payment or amount overdue in accordance with paragraph B above, from the date the proof of loss or demand for payment was transmitted to the Reinsurer.

As respects any payment, adjustment or return due either party not otherwise provided for in subparagraphs 1 and 2 of this paragraph, the due date shall be as provided for in the applicable section of this Contract. In the event a due date is not specifically stated for a given payment, it shall be deemed due 30 days following transmittal of written notification that the provisions of this Article have been invoked.

For purposes of interest calculations only, amounts due hereunder shall be deemed paid upon receipt by the Intermediary.

Nothing herein shall be construed as limiting or prohibiting a Subscribing Reinsurer from contesting the validity of any claim, or from participating in the defense of any claim or suit, or prohibiting either party from contesting the validity of any payment or from initiating any arbitration or other proceeding in accordance with the provisions of this Contract. If the debtor party prevails in an arbitration or other proceeding, then any interest charges due hereunder on the amount in dispute shall be null and void. If the debtor party loses in such proceeding, then the interest charge on the amount determined to be due hereunder shall be calculated in accordance with the provisions set forth above unless otherwise determined by such proceedings. If a debtor party advances payment of any amount it is contesting, and proves to be correct in its contestation, either in whole or in part, the other party shall reimburse the debtor party for any such excess payment made plus interest on the excess amount calculated in accordance with this Article.

F.	Interest charges arising out of the application of this Article that are $250 or less from any party shall be waived unless there is a pattern of late payments consisting of three or more items over the course of any 12-month period.

Article 16 -

Offset (BRMA 36C)

The Company and the Reinsurer shall have the right to offset any balance or amounts due from one party to the other under the terms of this Contract. The party asserting the right of offset may exercise such right any time whether the balances due are on account of premiums or losses or otherwise.

Article 17 -

Access to Records

A.	Provided the Company has received at least 60 days prior notice, the Reinsurer or its designated representatives shall have access during regular business hours to all records of the Company which pertain in any way to this reinsurance. However:

A Special Circumstance Reinsurer shall not have any right of access to the records of the Company without the Company's prior consent; and

A Subscribing Reinsurer or its designated representatives shall not have any right of access to the records of the Company if it is not current in all undisputed payments due the Company. "Undisputed" as used herein shall mean any amount that the Subscribing Reinsurer has not contested in writing to the Company specifying the reason(s) why the payments are disputed.

B.	The provisions of this Article shall extend beyond the expiration or invalidation of this Contract, or the termination of a Subscribing Reinsurer's percentage share in this Contract, until all claims and losses hereunder are settled.

Article 18 -

Liability of the Reinsurer

The liability of the Reinsurer shall follow that of the Company in every case, including judicial interpretation and policy reformation, and be subject in all respects to all the general and specific stipulations, clauses, waivers and modifications of the Company's policies and any endorsements thereon. However, in no event shall this be construed in any way to provide coverage outside the terms and conditions set forth in this Contract.

B.	Nothing herein shall in any manner create any obligations or establish any rights against the Reinsurer in favor of any third party or any persons not parties to this Contract.

Article 19 -

Net Retained Lines

This Contract applies only to that portion of any policy which the Company retains net for its own account (prior to deduction of any underlying reinsurance specifically permitted in this Contract), and in calculating the amount of any loss hereunder and also in computing the amount or amounts in excess of which this Contract attaches, only loss or losses in respect of that portion of any policy which the Company retains net for its own account shall be included. For purposes of this Contract, amounts ceded to Quota Share Reinsurers on business reinsured hereunder, if applicable, shall be considered retained net by the Company.

The amount of the Reinsurer's liability hereunder in respect of any loss or losses shall not be increased by reason of the inability of the Company to collect from any other reinsurer(s), whether specific or general, any amounts which may have become due from such reinsurer(s), whether such inability arises from the insolvency of such other reinsurer(s) or otherwise.

Article 20 -

Errors and Omissions

Inadvertent delays, errors or omissions made in complying with this Contract or any transaction hereunder shall not relieve either party from any liability which would have attached had such delay, error or omission not occurred, provided always that such error or omission is rectified as soon as possible after discovery.

Article 21 -

Currency (BRMA 12A)

A.	Whenever the word "Dollars" or the "$" sign appears in this Contract, they shall be construed to mean United States Dollars and all transactions under this Contract shall be in United States Dollars.

B.	Amounts paid or received by the Company in any other currency shall be converted to United States Dollars at the rate of exchange at the date such transaction is entered on the books of the Company.

Article 22 -

Taxes (BRMA 50B)

In consideration of the terms under which this Contract is issued, the Company will not claim a deduction in respect of the premium hereon when making tax returns, other than income or profits tax returns, to any state or territory of the United States of America or the District of Columbia.

Article 23 -

Federal Excise Tax (BRMA 17D)

A.	The Reinsurer has agreed to allow for the purpose of paying the Federal Excise Tax the applicable percentage of the premium payable hereon (as imposed under Section 4371 of the Internal Revenue Code) to the extent such premium is subject to the Federal Excise Tax.

B.	In the event of any return of premium becoming due hereunder the Reinsurer will deduct the applicable percentage from the return premium payable hereon and the Company or its agent should take steps to recover the tax from the United States Government.

Article 24 -

Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act

To the extent the Reinsurer is subject to the deduction and withholding of premium payable hereon as set forth in the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (Sections 1471-1474 of the Internal Revenue Code), the Reinsurer shall allow such deduction and withholding from the premium payable under this Contract.

In the event of any return of premium becoming due hereunder, the return premium will be determined and paid in full without regard to any amounts deducted or withheld under paragraph A of this Article. In the event the Company or its agent recovers such premium deductions and withholdings on the return premium from the United States Government, the Company or its agent will reimburse the Reinsurer for such amounts.

Article 25 -

Reserves

The Reinsurer agrees to fund its share of the Company's ceded outstanding loss and loss adjustment expense reserves (including all case reserves plus any reasonable amount estimated to be unreported from known loss occurrences as established by the Company), and any other outstanding balances which it shall be required by applicable regulation or law to set up under this Contract (the "funding obligation") by:

Clean, irrevocable and unconditional letters of credit issued and confirmed, if confirmation is required by the insurance regulatory authorities involved, by a bank or banks meeting the NAIC Securities Valuation Office credit standards for issuers of letters of credit and acceptable to said insurance regulatory authorities; and/or

Escrow accounts for the benefit of the Company; and/or

Cash advances;

if the Reinsurer:

Is unauthorized in any state of the United States of America or the District of Columbia and if, without such funding, a penalty would accrue to the Company on any financial statement it is required to file with the insurance regulatory authorities involved; or

Is a Special Circumstance Reinsurer.

The Reinsurer, at its sole option, may fund in other than cash if its method and form of funding are acceptable to the insurance regulatory authorities involved.

Notwithstanding the provisions of the Arbitration Article, if a Special Circumstance Reinsurer fails to fund its share of the funding obligation as set forth above, the Company retains its right to apply to a court of competent jurisdiction for equitable or interim relief.

With regard to funding in whole or in part by letters of credit, it is agreed that each letter of credit will be in a form acceptable to insurance regulatory authorities involved, will be issued for a term of at least one year and will include an "evergreen clause," which automatically extends the term for at least one additional year at each expiration date unless written notice of non-renewal is given to the Company not less than 30 days prior to said expiration date. The Company and the Reinsurer further agree, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Contract, that said letters of credit may be drawn upon by the Company or its successors in interest at any time, without diminution because of the insolvency of the Company or the Reinsurer, but only for one or more of the following purposes:

To reimburse itself for the Reinsurer's share of losses and/or loss adjustment expense paid under the terms of policies reinsured hereunder, unless paid in cash by the Reinsurer;

To reimburse itself for the Reinsurer's share of any other amounts claimed to be due hereunder, unless paid in cash by the Reinsurer;

To fund a cash account in an amount equal to the Reinsurer's funding obligation funded by means of a letter of credit which is under non-renewal notice, if said letter of credit has not been renewed or replaced by the Reinsurer 10 days prior to its expiration date;

To refund to the Reinsurer any sum in excess of the actual amount required to fund the Reinsurer's funding obligation, if so requested by the Reinsurer.

In the event the amount drawn by the Company on any letter of credit is in excess of the actual amount required for B(1) or B(3), or in the case of B(2), the actual amount determined to be due, the Company shall promptly return to the Reinsurer the excess amount so drawn.

If a Subscribing Reinsurer fails to fulfill its funding obligation (if any) under this Article, the Company may, at its option, require the Subscribing Reinsurer to pay, and the Subscribing Reinsurer agrees to pay, an interest charge on the funding obligation calculated on the last business day of each month as follows:

The number of full days that have expired since the earliest of the applicable following dates:

a.	As respects a Subscribing Reinsurer that is unauthorized in any state of the United States of America or District of Columbia having jurisdiction over the Company, December 31 of the calendar year in which the funding was required; or

b.	As respects a Special Circumstance Reinsurer, the first date such reinsurer becomes a Special Circumstance Reinsurer;

times:

1/365th of the sum of 4.0% and the U.S. prime rate as quoted in The Wall Street Journal on the first business day of the month for which the calculation is made; times

The greater of (a) the funding obligation, less the amount, if any, funded by the Subscribing Reinsurer prior to the applicable date determined in subparagraph 1 above or (b) $100,000.

It is agreed that interest shall accumulate until the full interest charge amount as provided for in this paragraph and the funding obligation are paid.

If the interest rate provided under this Article exceeds the maximum interest rate allowed by any applicable law or is held unenforceable by an arbitrator or a court of competent jurisdiction, such interest rate shall be modified to the highest rate permitted by the applicable law, and all remaining provisions of this Article and Contract shall remain in full force and effect without being impaired or invalidated in any way.

Article 26 -

Insolvency

In the event of the insolvency of one or more of the reinsured companies, this reinsurance shall be payable directly to the company or to its liquidator, receiver, conservator or statutory successor on the basis of the liability of the company without diminution because of the insolvency of the company or because the liquidator, receiver, conservator or statutory successor of the company has failed to pay all or a portion of any claim. It is agreed, however, that the liquidator, receiver, conservator or statutory successor of the company shall give written notice to the Reinsurer of the pendency of a claim against the company indicating the policy or bond reinsured which claim would involve a possible liability on the part of the Reinsurer within a reasonable time after such claim is filed in the conservation or liquidation proceeding or in the receivership, and that 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 that it may deem available to the company or its liquidator, receiver, conservator or statutory successor. The expense thus incurred by the Reinsurer shall be chargeable, subject to the approval of the Court, against the company as part of the expense of conservation or liquidation to the extent of a pro rata share of the benefit which may accrue to the company solely as a result of the defense undertaken by the Reinsurer.

B.	Where two or more reinsurers are involved in the same claim and a majority in interest elect to interpose defense to such claim, the expense shall be apportioned in accordance with the terms of this Contract as though such expense had been incurred by the company.

It is further understood and agreed that, in the event of the insolvency of one or more of the reinsured companies, the reinsurance under this Contract shall be payable directly by the Reinsurer to the company or to its liquidator, receiver or statutory successor, except as provided by Section 4118(a) of the New York Insurance Law or except (1) where this Contract specifically provides another payee of such reinsurance in the event of the insolvency of the company or (2) where the Reinsurer with the consent of the direct insured or insureds has assumed such policy obligations of the company as direct obligations of the Reinsurer to the payees under such policies and in substitution for the obligations of the company to such payees.

Article 27 -

Arbitration

As a condition precedent to any right of action hereunder, in the event of any dispute or difference of opinion hereafter arising with respect to this Contract, it is hereby mutually agreed that such dispute or difference of opinion shall be submitted to arbitration. One Arbiter shall be chosen by the Company, the other by the Reinsurer, and an Umpire shall be chosen by the two Arbiters before they enter upon arbitration, all of whom shall be active or retired disinterested executive officers of insurance or reinsurance companies or Xxxxx'x London Underwriters. In the event that either party should fail to choose an Arbiter within 30 days following a written request by the other party to do so, the requesting party may choose two Arbiters who shall in turn choose an Umpire before entering upon arbitration. If the two Arbiters fail to agree upon the selection of an Umpire within 30 days following their appointment, each Arbiter shall nominate three candidates within 10 days thereafter, two of whom the other shall decline, and the decision shall be made by drawing lots. Notwithstanding the above, in the event the dispute or difference of opinion involves a Special Circumstance Reinsurer, the Company may, at its option, choose to forego arbitration and may bring an action in any court of competent jurisdiction.

Each party shall present its case to the Arbiters within 30 days following the date of appointment of the Umpire. The Arbiters shall consider this Contract as an honorable engagement rather than merely as a legal obligation and they are relieved of all judicial formalities and may abstain from following the strict rules of law. The decision of the Arbiters shall be final and binding on both parties; but failing to agree, they shall call in the Umpire and the decision of the majority shall be final and binding upon both parties. Judgment upon the final decision of the Arbiters may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction and the Arbiters are empowered to grant interim relief as they may deem appropriate.

If more than one reinsurer is involved in the same dispute, all such reinsurers shall, at the option of the Company, constitute and act as one party for purposes of this Article and communications shall be made by the Company to each of the reinsurers constituting one party, provided, however, that nothing herein shall impair the rights of such reinsurers to assert several, rather than joint, defenses or claims, nor be construed as changing the liability of the reinsurers participating under the terms of this Contract from several to joint.

Each party shall bear the expense of its own Arbiter, and shall jointly and equally bear with the other the expense of the Umpire and of the arbitration. In the event that the two Arbiters are chosen by one party, as above provided, the expense of the Arbiters, the Umpire and the arbitration shall be equally divided between the two parties.

E.	Any arbitration proceedings shall take place in Irving, Texas, or at a location mutually agreed upon by the parties to this Contract, but notwithstanding the location of the arbitration, all proceedings pursuant hereto shall be governed by the law of the State of Texas.

Article 28 -

Service of Suit (BRMA 49G)

(Applicable if the Reinsurer is not domiciled in the United States of America, and/or is not authorized in any State, Territory or District of the United States where authorization is required by insurance regulatory authorities)

This Article will not be read to conflict with or override the obligations of the parties to arbitrate their disputes as provided for in the Arbitration Article. This Article is intended as an aid to compelling arbitration or enforcing such arbitration or arbitral award, not as an alternative to the Arbitration Article for resolving disputes arising out of this Contract.

In the event the Reinsurer fails to pay any amount claimed to be due hereunder, the Reinsurer, at the request of the Company, will submit to the jurisdiction of a court of competent jurisdiction within the United States. Nothing in this Article constitutes or should be understood to constitute a waiver of the Reinsurer'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 of any state in the United States. The Reinsurer, once the appropriate Court is accepted by the Reinsurer or is determined by removal, transfer or otherwise, as provided for above, will comply with all requirements necessary to give said Court jurisdiction and, in any suit instituted against any of the Subscribing Reinsurers upon this Contract, will abide by the final decision of such Court or of any Appellate Court in the event of an appeal.

Further, pursuant to any statute of any state, territory or district of the United States which makes provision therefor, the Reinsurer hereby designates the party named in its Interests and Liabilities Agreement, or if no party is named therein, the Superintendent, Commissioner or Director of Insurance or other officer specified for that purpose in the statute, or his or her successor or successors in office, as its true and lawful attorney upon whom may be served any lawful process in any action, suit or proceeding instituted by or on behalf of the Company or any beneficiary hereunder arising out of this Contract.

Article 29 -

When required by external auditors performing an audit of the Reinsurer's records in the normal course of business; or

When required by attorneys or arbitrators in connection with an actual or potential dispute hereunder.

Further, the Reinsurer agrees not to use any Confidential Information for any purpose not related to the performance of its obligations or enforcement of its rights under this Contract.

Notwithstanding the above, in the event that the Reinsurer is required by court order, other legal process or any regulatory authority to release or disclose any or all of the Confidential Information, the Reinsurer agrees to provide the Company with written notice of same at least 10 days prior to such release or disclosure and to use its best efforts to assist the Company in maintaining the confidentiality provided for in this Article.

D.	The provisions of this Article shall extend to the officers, directors and employees of the Reinsurer and its affiliates, and shall be binding upon their successors and assigns.

Article 30 -

Agency Agreement

Article 32 -

Severability (BRMA 72E)

Article 33 -

Entire Agreement

1.	This Reinsurance does not cover any loss or liability accruing to the Reassured, directly or indirectly and whether as Insurer or Reinsurer, from any Pool of Insurers or Reinsurers formed for the purpose of covering Atomic or Nuclear Energy risks.

Without in any way restricting the operation of paragraph (1) of this Clause, this Reinsurance does not cover any loss or liability accruing to the Reassured, directly or indirectly and whether as Insurer or Reinsurer, from any insurance against Physical Damage (including business interruption or consequential loss arising out of such Physical Damage) to:

Installations other than those listed in paragraph (2) III above using substantial quantities of radioactive isotopes or other products of nuclear fission.

Without in any way restricting the operations of paragraphs (1) and (2) hereof, this Reinsurance does not cover any loss or liability by radioactive contamination accruing to the Reassured, directly or indirectly, and whether as Insurer or Reinsurer, from any insurance on property which is on the same site as a nuclear reactor power plant or other nuclear installation and which normally would be insured therewith except that this paragraph (3) shall not operate

Without in any way restricting the operations of paragraphs (1), (2) and (3) hereof, this Reinsurance does not cover any loss or liability by radioactive contamination accruing to the Reassured, directly or indirectly, and whether as Insurer or Reinsurer, when such radioactive contamination is a named hazard specifically insured against.

5.	It is understood and agreed that this Clause shall not extend to risks using radioactive isotopes in any form where the nuclear exposure is not considered by the Reassured to be the primary hazard.

Certain Underwriting Members of Lloyd's

(Re)Insurer's Liability Clause - LMA3333

(Re)Insurer's liability several not joint

The liability of a (re)insurer under this contract is several and not joint with other (re)insurers party to this contract. A (re)insurer is liable only for the proportion of liability it has underwritten. A (re)insurer is not jointly liable for the proportion of liability underwritten by any other (re)insurer. Nor is a (re)insurer otherwise responsible for any liability of any other (re)insurer that may underwrite this contract.

The proportion of liability under this contract underwritten by a (re)insurer (or, in the case of a Lloyd's syndicate, the total of the proportions underwritten by all the members of the syndicate taken together) is shown next to its stamp. This is subject always to the provision concerning "signing" below.

In the case of a Lloyd's syndicate, each member of the syndicate (rather than the syndicate itself) is a (re)insurer. Each member has underwritten a proportion of the total shown for the syndicate (that total itself being the total of the proportions underwritten by all the members of the syndicate taken together). The liability of each member of the syndicate is several and not joint with other members. A member is liable only for that member's proportion. A member is not jointly liable for any other member's proportion. Nor is any member otherwise responsible for any liability of any other (re)insurer that may underwrite this contract. The business address of each member is Lloyd's, Xxx Xxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxx XX0X 0XX. The identity of each member of a Lloyd's syndicate and their respective proportion may be obtained by writing to Market Services, Lloyd's, at the above address.

Proportion of liability

Unless there is "signing" (see below), the proportion of liability under this contract underwritten by each (re)insurer (or, in the case of a Lloyd's syndicate, the total of the proportions underwritten by all the members of the syndicate taken together) is shown next to its stamp and is referred to as its "written line".

Where this contract permits, written lines, or certain written lines, may be adjusted ("signed"). In that case a schedule is to be appended to this contract to show the definitive proportion of liability under this contract underwritten by each (re)insurer (or, in the case of a Xxxxx'x syndicate, the total of the proportions underwritten by all the members of the syndicate taken together). A definitive proportion (or, in the case of a Lloyd's syndicate, the total of the proportions underwritten by all the members of a Lloyd's syndicate taken together) is referred to as a "signed line". The signed lines shown in the schedule will prevail over the written lines unless a proven error in calculation has occurred.

Although reference is made at various points in this clause to "this contract" in the singular, where the circumstances so require this should be read as a reference to contracts in the plural.
