AND

AND
LINCOLN MEMORIAL LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY
(Nalre9001)
The above described reinsurance agreement ("Reinsurance Agreement") is hereby
amended in accordance with the terms and conditions contained herein.
1. 90% of all limited pay business reinsured under the Reinsurance Agreement
is hereby recaptured by Lincoln Memorial Life and Memorial Service Life.
Further, Article I(B) of the Reinsurance Agreement is hereby amended by
changing the coinsurance percentage of all limited pay plans ceded under

posting any reserve liabilities associated with the business being recaptured
hereunder.
2. An initial settlement shall be calculated equal to the net amount of the
monthly Reinsurance Settlements accumulated with interest from one month
after the close of each reinsurance settlement month beginning with the
effective date of the Reinsurance Agreement to the Effective Date of the
Amendment at an annualized rate of 6%. The monthly Reinsurance Settlement is
equal to the settlement for each month as defined in Article II(D)(2) of the
Reinsurance Agreement as the settlement relates to the business being
recaptured hereunder.
The amount due may be offset against the amount paid to Lincoln Memorial Life
and Memorial Service Life by Hannover Life Reinsurance Company of America.
If such amount is offset and Hannover Life Reinsurance Company of America
pays North America Life directly, then no amount shall be due or payable under
this provision to North America Life.
3. Additionally, Lincoln Memorial Life and Memorial Service Life will pay
North America Life monthly the following amounts: $1.00 per premium paying
policy in force plus $.50 per non-premium paying policy in force plus the
marketing fees according to the attached schedule as those fees apply to the
business ceded to Hannover Life Reinsurance Company of America.
The amounts specified in this provision shall be paid in accordance with the
following procedure:
(i) Within one (1) business day of Lincoln Memorial Life and Memorial Service
Life's receipt of the monthly reinsurance settlement amount from Hannover
Life Reinsurance Company of America ("Monthly Settlement Amount"), Lincoln
Memorial Life and Memorial Service Life shall notify North America Life of
such amount,
(ii) Lincoln Memorial Life and Memorial Service Life shall pay by wire transfer
to North America Life the Monthly Settlement Amount upon receipt of a copy of
wire transfer instructions from North America Life to its bank directing the
wire transfer of all marketing fees owed by North America Life related to the
production of the business reinsured hereunder within one (1)
business day of receipt from Lincoln Memorial Life and Memorial Service Life
of the Monthly Settlement Amount. Such wire instructions shall have no
conditions attached except for the receipt of the Monthly Settlement Amount
from Lincoln Memorial Life and Memorial Service Life.
(iii) The Settlement Terms of the Reinsurance Agreement applicable to the
business reinsured to North America Life and not ceded to Hannover Life
Reassurance Company of America (which excludes the Monthly Settlement Amount
as defined in this Amendment with payment terms as defined above) and as found
in Article II(D)(2) of the Reinsurance Agreement remains unchanged and in full
force and effect.
4. At the request of North America Life, Lincoln Memorial Life and Memorial
Service Life agree to execute documents required to terminate or amend the
coinsurance percentage for new business written under the reinsurance
agreement that Lincoln Memorial Life and Memorial Service Life are entering
into with Hannover Life Reassurance Company of America effective on August 1,
2001; and, further, North America Life, Memorial Service Life and Lincoln
Memorial Life agree to execute documents that simultaneously amends the
Reinsurance Agreement to change the coinsurance percentage applicable to the
limited pay business that would have been ceded to Hannover Life Reassurance
Company of America so that business is ceded to North America Life.
Notwithstanding the above, no action is required of Lincoln Memorial Life or
Memorial Service Life unless either North America Life or another mutually
acceptable reinsurer agrees to reinsure the business that would have been
ceded to Hannover Life Reassurance Company of America.
5. North America Life hereby represents and warrants that with the execution
of this Amendment and with the execution of the referenced reinsurance
agreement with Hannover Life Reassurance Company of America that Lincoln
Memorial Life and Memorial Service Life are in exactly the same position
