Retrocessionaire will have the right to review any Data Report and comment thereon for a period of 20 Business Days after receipt thereof, and the following shall apply:

In the event Retrocessionaire does not dispute Retrocedant’s calculation set forth in a Data Report within such 20 Business Day review period, the Data Report will be deemed mutually agreed and shall be final and binding on the Parties;

The dispute resolution procedure set forth in this subparagraph D(3) shall be in lieu of, and not in addition to, the dispute resolution procedures set forth in the Arbitration Article.

ARTICLE 4 - TERM OF THIS AGREEMENT

Upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth in the Transactions to be Effectuated at Closing Article, this Agreement shall commence on the Effective Date and shall remain in force until the earliest of:

The date on which the Aggregate Limit hereunder is exhausted;

The effective date of commutation of this Agreement.

This Agreement may be commuted by (1) mutual written agreement of the Parties, or (2) as may be required by Retrocedant as provided in the Special Events of Default by Retrocessionaire Article.

In the event this Agreement is commuted in accordance with the foregoing paragraph B, Retrocedant shall prepare and provide to Retrocessionaire a settlement statement (the “Commutation Amount Statement”) within 20 Business Days of the commutation date setting forth the settlement amount due between the Parties equaling the present value of NSL as of the commutation date assuming a 2% discount rate. Such amount shall be the “Commutation Amount.” Retrocessionaire will have the right to review the Commutation Amount Statement and comment thereon for a period of 20 Business Days after receipt thereof. In the event Retrocessionaire does not dispute the Commutation Amount Statement within such review period, the Commutation Amount Statement will be deemed accepted by Retrocessionaire, in which case:

To the extent the Commutation Amount is a positive value, subject to the Payment Limit, Retrocessionaire shall promptly pay such amount directly to Retrocedant; or

To the extent the Commutation Amount is a negative value, Retrocedant shall promptly pay such amount directly to Retrocessionaire.

In the event Retrocessionaire disputes Retrocedant’s calculation of the Commutation Amount in the foregoing paragraph C, the dispute shall be resolved by a panel of three independent actuaries, one selected by Retrocedant, one selected by Retrocessionaire and the third selected by the Party-selected actuaries (an “Actuary Panel”). The Actuary Panel’s review of the Commutation Amount shall be a de novo calculation applying the Actuary Panel’s own interpretation of standard actuarial principles, calculating a new Commutation Amount that is between Retrocedant’s and Retrocessionaire’s calculation thereof. Retrocedant and Retrocessionaire shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Actuary Panel to deliver its resolution of such dispute within 20 Business Days of the request by the Parties, and such determination shall be binding on the Parties. The expenses of the Actuary Panel shall be paid by the Party whose calculation of the Commutation Amount was further from the amount determined by the Actuary Panel, provided that if the amount determined by the Actuary Panel is the midpoint between the calculations of the Commutation Amount submitted by the Parties, then the expenses of the Actuary Panel shall be paid equally by the Parties. The dispute resolution procedure set forth in this paragraph D shall be in lieu of, and not in addition to, the dispute resolution procedures set forth in the Arbitration Article.

Effective: October 1, 2021

Payment by either Party of the Commutation Amount shall constitute a full and final release of the Parties’ liabilities under this Agreement.

All required regulatory approvals by the applicable Regulatory Authority have been obtained; and

The execution of this Agreement.

On the Closing, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement:

ARTICLE 7 - FUNDS WITHHELD ACCOUNT

On the Closing, Retrocedant will establish a notional funds withheld account (the “Funds Withheld Account” or “FWA”) with an initial funds withheld account balance equal to the Withheld Premium less the Pre-Closing UNL.

For each Quarterly period from the Closing, the balance in the FWA at the end of the Quarter shall equal:

The balance in the FWA at Closing for the first Quarter (or portion thereof) following Closing, and subsequently at the end of the prior Quarter; less

Any UNL paid during the Quarter in respect of the Subject Business.

For each Quarterly period from the Closing, Retrocedant shall calculate the “Funds Withheld Investment Credit” as of the relevant Quarterly period which shall be an amount equal to the product of the following:

3.            The average of:

The balance of the FWA as of the beginning of the applicable Quarter; and

The balance of the FWA as of the end of the applicable Quarter;

multiplied by

4.             0.50%.

5.             If the period between:

Closing and the end of the Quarter; or

the end of the immediately preceding Quarter and the exhaustion of the FWA;

is less than 91 calendar days (a “Partial Quarter”), then the Funds Withheld Investment Credit shall be pro rated by multiplying the amount calculated in subparagraphs 3 and 4 above by the ratio of the number of calendar days in such Partial Quarter to 91 days.

If such Funds Withheld Investment Credit is a positive value, it shall be paid directly to the Retrocessionaire within 20 Business Days after at the end of each Quarter.

On October 1, 2027 or on the date when the balance in the FWA reaches $25,000,000, whichever occurs first (the “FWH Transfer Date”), the Retrocedant shall remit to the Retrocessionaire the positive balance in the FWA, resulting in a FWA balance equal to zero.

To Retrocedant’s knowledge, the materials provided by or on behalf of Retrocedant to Retrocessionaire or its affiliates or representatives in connection with this Agreement (including the material provided in the virtual data room) do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements contained therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

The execution and delivery by Retrocessionaire of this Agreement, the performance by Retrocessionaire of its obligations under this Agreement and the consummation by Retrocessionaire, as applicable, of the transactions contemplated under this Agreement, has been or will be duly authorized by all requisite corporate action on the part of Retrocessionaire prior to the Closing.

ARTICLE 10 – COVENANTS

During the term of this Agreement, each party will notify the other in writing of all non-routine or ordinary course investigations of such party or the underlying ceding company (that are currently ongoing and of which it becomes aware) conducted by any Regulatory Authority, to the extent such investigation relates to either party’s ability to perform under this Agreement or the Subject Business.

During the term of this Agreement, Retrocedant shall use commercially reasonable efforts to continue to enforce its rights and obligations in the Underlying Contracts in the same manner as it would be expected to do absent the existence of this Agreement.

ARTICLE 11 – DISPUTE HANDLING

If there is a dispute relating to the Subject Business between Retrocedant and its cedent (a “Dispute”), Retrocedant shall inform Retrocessionaire of its intended course of action and provide information regarding such dispute. Retrocessionaire shall have the right, but not the obligation, to associate, at the sole expense of Retrocessionaire, in the adjustment, litigation, negotiation or handling of any such Dispute, and Retrocedant shall take account of Retrocessionaire’s advice.

With respect to cash calls, Retrocedant shall inform Retrocessionaire of its intended course of action within 1 Business Day of its receipt of notice of such cash call, and if Retrocessionaire fails to respond before the cash call is due to the cedent pursuant to the Underlying Contract, then Retrocessionaire’s consent will be deemed to have been given to Retrocedant’s intended course of action in relation to such cash call. For all other Disputes, the Retrocessionaire’s time to respond following being informed by Retrocedant pursuant to Section A above will be 10 Business Days, at which time consent shall be deemed to have been given to Retrocedant’s intended course of action in relation to the Dispute.

If Retrocessionaire does not consent to Retrocedant’s contesting of the Dispute and Retrocedent refuses to pay such amount under Dispute, then any Extra Contractual Obligations incurred by Retrocedant arising from such course of action shall not be reimbursable as an Extra Contractual Obligation hereunder.

If Retrocessionaire’s consent is provided for withholding such disputed amount from the cedent, then any Extra Contractual Obligation incurred by Retrocedant arising from such action shall be reimbursable as an Extra Contractual Obligation and added to UNL hereunder. No more than two times the original amount under Dispute shall erode any limit hereunder.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Retrocessionaire shall have the right, but not the obligation, to assume, at the sole expense of Retrocessionaire, the adjustment, litigation, negotiation or handling of any Dispute in the Retrocessionaire’s name, including directing Retrocedant’s course of action, selection of counsel, advisors and arbitrators (“Dispute Assumption”), and Retrocedant shall take account of Retrocessionaire’s advice or direction. In the event of a Dispute Assumption, any Extra Contractual Obligations incurred by Retrocedant arising from the relevant Dispute shall be paid by the Retrocessionaire in addition to any limit hereunder.

Xxxxxx and Omissions

Errors or omissions of an administrative nature on the part of Retrocedant shall not invalidate the reinsurance under this Agreement, provided such errors or omissions are corrected after discovery. Nothing in this paragraph F shall limit any other rights or remedies of Retrocessionaire in respect of such errors or omissions.

Further Assurances

Each of the Parties shall at any time (and from time to time on being reasonably required by the other Party) do and execute or procure to be done and executed, all acts, deeds, documents and things reasonably necessary and within its power to give effect to the terms of this Agreement.

Xxxxxxxxxx and Severability

This Agreement and the covenants herein contained shall be construed and enforced as a contractual indemnity and not as a contract to which the principle of utmost good faith applies. Accordingly no matter, fact or circumstances that would cause this Agreement to be in any respect, or to any extent, invalid or unenforceable, or capable of termination by Retrocessionaire or that would otherwise give rise to Retrocessionaire being relieved of any obligation hereunder or entitle Retrocessionaire to claim damages if it were to be treated as a contract of utmost good faith (but which would not do so if it was not so treated) (including, without limitation, any non-disclosure or inaccurate or misleading disclosure on the part of Retrocedant shall be taken to cause any such invalidity or unenforceability or to cause this Agreement to be capable of termination or to relieve Retrocessionaire of any obligation hereunder or give rise to any such claim for damages). This subparagraph I(1) shall not in any way restrict or affect any other remedy Retrocessionaire may have against Retrocedant under or in connection with this Agreement, whether such remedy arises in contract, tort, statute or otherwise.

No provision of this Agreement shall be construed or have effect as a warranty unless expressly so described.

There are no conditions precedent to the existence, validity or enforceability of this Agreement. This Agreement incepts with full force and effect on the Effective Date and Retrocessionaire acknowledges that it will not seek to assert or rely on any argument that any condition in this Agreement exists as a condition precedent under this Agreement.

If at any time any provision of this Agreement is or becomes illegal, invalid or unenforceable under the Applicable Laws of any jurisdiction that shall not affect:

Meadow_LPT_21

Effective: October 1, 2021

Page 19

The legality, validity or enforceability in that jurisdiction of any other provision of this Agreement; or

The legality, validity or enforceability under the Applicable Laws of any other jurisdiction of that or another provision of this Agreement.

No Waiver

The failure to exercise or delay in exercising a right or remedy provided by this Agreement or by Applicable Law does not impair or constitute a waiver of the right or remedy or an impairment of or a waiver of other rights or remedies. No single or partial exercise of a right or remedy provided by this Agreement or by Applicable Law presents further exercise of the right or remedy, or the exercise, of another right or remedy.

Offset

Retrocedant or Retrocessionaire have and may exercise, at any time and from time to time, the right to offset any balance or balances, whether on account of premiums or on account of losses or otherwise, due from one Party to the other Party hereto, under the terms and within the subject matter of this Agreement or under any other reinsurance or retrocession agreement hereafter entered into by and between them. In the event of an insolvency of a Party hereto, offset shall only be allowed in accordance with the provisions of any Applicable Law governing offset entitlements.

Parties to this Agreement

The Parties shall not assign, novate, transfer, declare a trust or in any other way alienate any other rights under this Agreement, whether in whole or in part, without the prior written consent of the other Party. The merger of a Party with, or an acquisition of the securities of a Party by, any unaffiliated person or entity shall not be subject to the provisions of this paragraph K. This Agreement shall be binding upon all successors, assignees and transferees of the Parties to this Agreement.

Rights and Remedies

No failure or delay by any Party in exercising any right or remedy provided by law or under this Agreement shall impair such right or remedy or operate or be construed as a waiver or variation of it or preclude its exercise at any subsequent time and no single or partial exercise of any such right or remedy shall preclude any further exercise of it or the exercise of any other remedy.

Publicity

Except in instances where disclosure is required by Applicable Law (including disclosures to federal and state regulators and financial auditors and examiners, and disclosures in securities law filings, public financial statements and earnings results), no Party may make or issue a public announcement, communication or circular concerning the transactions referred to in this Agreement unless, in the case of the Retrocedant, it has first obtained the Retrocessionaire’s written consent, or in the case of the Retrocessionaire, it has first obtained the Retrocedant’s written consent, in each case not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed.

Sanctions

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Retrocessionaire will not provide cover, and will not be liable to pay any amount or provide any benefit hereunder, to the extent that the provision of such cover, payment of such amount 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, or Applicable Laws of any jurisdiction applicable to the Retrocessionaire.

Independent Investigation; Arms-Length Agreement

The Parties acknowledge that they have each entered into this Agreement in reliance upon their own independent investigation and analysis of the Subject Business and Underlying Contracts and their respective rights and obligations thereunder. The Parties acknowledge that they have read this Agreement, that they have had the opportunity to discuss it with their own legal counsel, financial advisors and others as deemed necessary, that they fully understand all the terms contained herein, and each Party further acknowledges that this Agreement is freely given and voluntarily executed. Neither Retrocedant nor Retrocessionaire shall be deemed the drafter of this Agreement or any provisions thereof and this Agreement shall be interpreted without resort to any doctrine calling for ambiguities to be construed against the drafter of the document.

ARTICLE 16 - COLLATERALIZATION OF NET SUBJECT LIABILITIES

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx agrees to collateralize 100% of the NSL at the option of Retrocedant, as provided for in the Special Events of Default by Retrocessionaire Article, by trust account, cash advances or a letter of credit reasonably acceptable to Retrocedant. Retrocessionaire shall have the option to fund in another manner if the method and form thereof is acceptable to the insurance regulatory authorities having jurisdiction over Retrocedant’s reserves.

When funding by a letter of credit, Retrocessionaire agrees to apply for and secure timely delivery to Retrocedant of a clean, irrevocable and unconditional letter of credit issued by a bank meeting Retrocedant’s reasonable standards for issuers of letters of credit. Such letter of credit shall be issued for a period of not less than one year, and shall contain an “evergreen” clause, which automatically extends the term for one year from its date of expiration or any future expiration date, unless 30 days prior to any expiration date the issuing bank shall notify Retrocedant by certified or registered mail that the issuing bank elects not to consider the letter of credit extended for any additional period.

Meadow_LPT_21

Effective: October 1, 2021

Page 21

In calculating 100% of the NSL as respects paragraph A and/or B above, the NSL shall be as of the date the provisions of paragraph A and/or B above are invoked.

Retrocessionaire and Retrocedant agree that the letters of credit or other funding provided by Retrocessionaire pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement may be drawn upon at any time, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, and be utilized by Retrocedant or any successor, by operation of law, of Retrocedant including, without limitation, any liquidator, rehabilitator, receiver or conservator of Retrocedant for the following purposes, unless otherwise provided for in a separate trust agreement:

To reimburse Retrocedant for the UNL, the payment of which is due under the terms of this Agreement and which has not been otherwise paid; and/or

To fund an account with Retrocedant for 100% of the NSL as of any one date. Such cash deposit shall be held in an interest-bearing account separate from Retrocedant’s other assets, and interest thereon not in excess of the U.S. prime rate shall accrue to the benefit of Retrocessionaire.

All of the foregoing shall be applied without diminution because of insolvency on the part of Retrocedant or Retrocessionaire. In the event the amount drawn by Retrocedant is in excess of the actual amount required for (1) or (3), or in the case of (4), the actual amount determined to be due, Retrocedant shall promptly return to Retrocessionaire the excess amount so drawn.

The issuing bank shall have no responsibility whatsoever in connection with the propriety of withdrawals made by Retrocedant or the disposition of funds withdrawn, except to ensure that withdrawals are made only upon the order of properly authorized representatives of Retrocedant.

At quarterly intervals, Retrocedant shall prepare a specific statement of the NSL as of that date, for the sole purpose of amending the letter of credit or other method of funding, in the following manner:

If the statement shows that the NSL as of that statement date exceed the balance of the letter of credit as of the statement date, Retrocessionaire shall, within 30 Business Days after receipt of notice of such excess, secure delivery to Retrocedant of an amendment to the letter of credit increasing the amount of credit by the amount of such difference. Should another method of funding be used, Retrocessionaire shall increase such funding by the amount of the difference set forth in the statement within 30 Business Days after receipt of the statement.

If, however, the statement shows that the NSL as of that statement date are less than the balance of the letter of credit (or that 100% of the NSL as of that statement date are less than the trust account balance if funding is provided by a trust agreement) as of the statement date, Retrocedant shall, within 30 days after receipt of written request from Retrocessionaire, release such excess credit by agreeing to secure an amendment to the letter of credit reducing the amount of credit available by the amount of such excess credit. Should another method of funding be used, Retrocedant shall decrease such funding by the amount of the difference set forth in the statement within 30 days after receipt of the statement.

ARTICLE 17 - INSOLVENCY

In the event of the insolvency of the Retrocedant, this retrocession shall be payable directly to the Retrocedant or to its liquidator, receiver, conservator or statutory successor, with reasonable provision for verification, on the basis of the liability of the Retrocedant or on the basis of claims filed and allowed in the liquidation proceeding, whichever may be required by applicable statute, without diminution because of the insolvency of the Retrocedant or because the liquidator, receiver, conservator or statutory successor of the Retrocedant has failed to pay all or a portion of any claim under the Subject Business. It is agreed, however, that the liquidator, receiver, conservator or statutory successor of the Retrocedant shall give written notice to the Retrocessionaire of the pendency of a claim against the Retrocedant indicating the Underlying Contract retroceded which claim would involve a possible liability on the part of the Retrocessionaire 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 Retrocessionaire 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 Retrocedant or its liquidator, receiver, conservator or statutory successor. The expense thus incurred by the Retrocessionaire shall be chargeable, subject to the approval of the court, against the Retrocedant 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 Retrocedant solely as a result of the defense undertaken by the Retrocessionaire.

It is further understood and agreed that, in the event of the insolvency of the Retrocedant, the reinsurance under this Agreement shall be payable directly by the Retrocessionaire to the Retrocedant or to its liquidator, receiver or statutory successor, except as provided by the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act of 2016 where this Agreement expressly identifies a third party who may in its own right enforce a term of the Agreement, subject at all times to all of the terms, conditions, and limitations of this Agreement.

Notwithstanding the foregoing and subject always to the Aggregate Limit, in no event shall the provisions of this Article be construed to change the liability of Retrocessionaire to remit payment hereunder to any amount greater than the Payment Limit.

ARTICLE 18 - ARBITRATION

Except as otherwise provided herein, all disputes between the Parties in respect to this Agreement shall be resolved pursuant to the terms of this Article.

Meadow_LPT_21

Effective: October 1, 2021

Page 23

Prior to the commencement of arbitration in accordance with this Article, the Parties will utilize an expedited dispute resolution process involving one senior executive from each of Retrocedant and Retrocessionaire (each, a “Senior Executive”). If such Senior Executives are unable to resolve the dispute within 10 Business Days of the dispute being referred to them, either Party may seek to resolve the dispute in accordance with this Article. Retrocedant and Retrocessionaire intend that the arbitrators will make their decision with a view to effecting the intent of this Agreement.

To initiate arbitration, one Party (“Petitioner”) will notify the other (“Respondent”) in writing of its desire to arbitrate, stating the nature of its dispute, the remedy sought, and the name of its Party-appointed arbitrator. Respondent shall respond to the notification in writing within 30 Business Days, and in its response, it shall name its Party-appointed arbitrator. If Respondent fails to name its arbitrator within the allotted time, Petitioner shall appoint both arbitrators. The two arbitrators shall select a third arbitrator within 30 Business Days of the date on which the latter of the two such arbitrators was appointed. Should the two arbitrators selected by the Parties not be able to agree upon the choice of a third, then the Parties shall each name 4 arbitrators from the Certified Umpires List maintained by the XXXX Reinsurance and Insurance Arbitration Society (“XXXXX●U.S.”). Beginning with Respondent, each Party shall eliminate one arbitrator from the eight listed until one arbitrator remains. If this arbitrator declines to serve, the arbitrator last eliminated will be approached to serve. This process shall be repeated until an arbitrator has agreed to serve as the third arbitrator.

All three arbitrators must be disinterested persons designated as Certified Professionals by XXXXX●U.S. with not less than 10 years’ experience as present or former officers of property and casualty insurance companies or property and casualty reinsurance companies, excluding however, officers or employees of Retrocedant and Retrocessionaire or their respective Affiliates. If an arbitrator, subsequent to his or her appointment, is unwilling or unable to act, a new arbitrator shall be appointed to replace him or her by the same procedure by which he or she was appointed. Each Party shall pay the fee and expenses of its own arbitrator and equally bear the fee and expenses of the third arbitrator. All other expenses of the arbitration shall be equally divided between the Parties. The arbitrators, in their discretion, may award such further costs and expenses as it considers appropriate, including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees, to the extent permitted by law; however, the arbitrators shall have no authority or discretion to award any punitive, special, exemplary, consequential or other similar damages.

The arbitration shall take place at a location in New York, New York unless otherwise agreed to in writing by both Retrocedant and Retrocessionaire. The arbitrators shall have the power to fix by a notice in writing to the Parties involved, a reasonable time and location for the arbitration hearing and may prescribe all procedural rules relating to the course and conduct of the arbitration.

Meadow_LPT_21

Effective: October 1, 2021

Page 24

The written decision of a majority of the arbitrators shall be final and binding on Retrocedant and Retrocessionaire and their respective successors and assigns. The arbitrators shall use their best efforts to render a written award within three months of the arbitration hearing, unless both Parties agree otherwise. Failure of the arbitrators to render such decision within the three-month period shall not be grounds for challenging or contesting in any respect the validity or enforceability of any written decision. The panel is empowered to grant interim relief as it may deem appropriate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement shall prevent either Party from seeking provisional measures from the Supreme Court of the State of New York, New York County and the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (“New York Courts”) and any appellate court, and any such request shall not be deemed incompatible with the agreement to arbitrate or a waiver of the right to arbitrate.

Each of Retrocedant and Retrocessionaire consents to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the New York Courts and any appellate court from any decision thereof for purposes of any actions or proceedings in connection with the arbitration, including proceedings to compel, stay, or enjoin arbitration, to seek interim relief in aid of arbitration, or to confirm, vacate, modify or correct an arbitration award, and to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the New York Courts for the enforcement of any award issued hereunder. For the avoidance of doubt, Retrocedant and Retrocessionaire shall have the right to seek and obtain in such courts provisional relief prior to the panel being fully formed pursuant to this Article, including prior to the commencement of the arbitration proceeding.

Xxxxxx prohibited by law, the New York Courts shall have exclusive jurisdiction over any and all court proceedings that any Party may initiate in connection with the arbitration, including proceedings to compel, stay, or enjoin arbitration or to confirm, vacate, modify, or correct an arbitration award, and shall have non-exclusive jurisdiction for the enforcement of any award hereunder. In addition, Retrocedant and Retrocessionaire shall have the right to seek and obtain in such courts provisional relief prior to the panel being fully formed pursuant to this Article, including prior to the commencement of the arbitration proceeding.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, for all disputes where the only claim is for monetary relief and the amount in dispute is less than $1,000,000, then the Parties agree that such dispute shall be determined by a single umpire in accordance with the then current XXXXX●U.S. Streamlined Rules for the Resolution of U.S. Insurance and Reinsurance Disputes, which are incorporated herein by reference.

ARTICLE 19 - GOVERNING LAW AND JURISDICTION

This Agreement and any non-contractual obligations arising out of or in connection with this Agreement shall be governed by, and interpreted in accordance with, the laws of Bermuda. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the liability of the underlying ceding companies or Retrocedant as determined by a court or arbitration panel or arising from a judgment, settlement, compromise or adjustment of claims or losses resulting from the Subject Business, including payments involving coverage issues and/or the resolution of whether such claim is required by contract, law, regulation, or regulatory authority to be covered (or not to be excluded), shall, subject to the terms, conditions and limits of this Contract, be binding on the Retrocessionaire regardless of whether such court or arbitration determination, judgment, settlement, compromise or adjustment is in respect of a liability recognized by or contrary to the governing law of this Agreement.

Meadow_LPT_21

Effective: October 1, 2021

The applicable courts shall have exclusive jurisdiction in relation to all disputes (including claims for set-off and counterclaims) arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, including disputes arising out of or in connection with:

The creation, validity, effect, interpretation, performance or non-performance of, or the legal relationships established by, this Agreement; and

Any non-contractual obligations arising out of or in connection with this Agreement. For such purposes each Party irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of the applicable courts and waives any objection to the exercise of such jurisdiction.
