company with a minimum A.M. Best rating of A, Financial Size

Reinsurer"). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Reinsurer shall
be required to pay to the Reassured any assigned liabilities

automatic extension of the Letter of Credit without amendment for one year from
the date of expiration of said Letter or any future expiration date unless
thirty (30) days prior to any expiration the issuing bank shall notify the
Reassured by registered mail that the issuing bank elects not to consider the
Letter of Credit renewed for any additional period. An issuing bank, not a
"qualified bank" as defined by Regulation No. 133 promulgated by the Insurance
Department of the State of New York, shall provide sixty (60) days notice to
the Reassured prior to any expiration.
D. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Contract, the Reassured or
any successor by operation of law of the Reassured including, without
limitation, any liquidator, rehabilitator, receiver or conservator of the
Reassured may draw upon such credit, without diminution because of the
insolvency of any party hereto, at any time and undertakes to use and apply
such credit for one or more of the following purposes only:
1. To pay the Reinsurer's share or to reimburse the Reassured for
the Reinsurer's share of any obligations, as stipulated in the
statement submitted by the Reassured to the Reinsurer, which is
due to the Reassured and not otherwise paid by the Reinsurer.
2. In the event the Reassured has received effective notice of
non-renewal of the Letter of Credit and the Reinsurer's liability
remains unliquidated and undischarged thirty (30) days prior to
the expiry date of the Letter of Credit, to withdraw the balance
of the Letter of Credit and place such sums in an interest
bearing trust account to secure the continuing liabilities of the
Reinsurer under this Contract until a renewal Letter of Credit
acceptable to the regulatory authority(ies) having jurisdiction
over the Reassured, or a substitute in lieu thereof acceptable to
the regulatory authority(ies) having jurisdiction over the
Reassured, has been received by the Reassured. The Reassured
shall provide to the Reinsurer payment of any interest thereon
accruing from such account.

amount required for Sections 1. and 2. of this paragraph.

Reassured, but never more frequently than quarterly, the Reassured shall
prepare a specific statement, for the sole purpose of amending the Letter of
Credit, of the Reinsurer's share of any obligations. If the statement shows
that the Reinsurer's share of obligations exceeds the balance of credit as of
the statement date, the Reinsurer shall, within thirty (30) days after receipt
of notice of such excess, secure delivery to the Reassured of an amendment of
the Letter of Credit increasing the amount of credit by the amount of such
difference. If the statement shows, however, that the Reinsurer's share of
obligations is less than the balance of credit as of the statement date, the
Reassured shall, within thirty (30) days after receipt of written request from
the Reinsurer, 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.
F. The bank shall have no responsibility whatsoever in connection with
the propriety of withdrawals made by the Reassured or the disposition of funds
withdrawn, except to assure that withdrawals are made only upon the order of
properly authorized representatives of the Reassured. The Reassured shall incur
no obligation to the bank in acting upon the credit, other than as appears in
the express terms thereof.
ARTICLE 16 - ARBITRATION
A. Any dispute or other matter in question between the Reassured and the
Reinsurer arising out of, or relating to, the formation, interpretation,
performance, or breach of this Contract, whether such dispute arises before or
after termination of this Contract, shall be settled by arbitration.
Arbitration shall be initiated by the delivery of a written notice of demand
for arbitration by one party to the other within a reasonable time after the
dispute has arisen.
B. If more than one reinsurer is involved in the same dispute, all such
reinsurers shall constitute and act as one party for the purposes of this
Article, 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 Reinsurer under the terms of this
Contract from several to joint.
C. Each party shall appoint an individual as arbitrator and the two so
appointed shall then appoint a third arbitrator. If either party refuses or
neglects to appoint an arbitrator within sixty (60) days, the other party may
appoint the second arbitrator. If the two arbitrators do not agree on a third
arbitrator within sixty (60) days of their appointment, each of the arbitrators
shall nominate three individuals. Each arbitrator shall then decline two of
the nominations presented by the other arbitrator. The third arbitrator shall
then be chosen from the remaining two nominations by drawing lots. The
arbitrators shall be active or retired officers of insurance or reinsurance
companies or insurance Trusts, Lloyd's London Underwriters or attorneys who
specialize in the representation of insurance companies; the arbitrators shall
not have a personal or financial interest in the result of the arbitration.
10
D. The arbitration hearings shall be held in New York, New York, or such
other place as may be mutually agreed. Each party shall submit its case to the
arbitrators within sixty (60) days of the selection of the third arbitrator or
within such longer period as may be agreed by the arbitrators. The arbitrators
shall not be obliged to follow judicial formalities or the rules of evidence
except to the extent required by governing law, that is, the state law of the
situs of the arbitration as herein agreed; they shall make their decisions
according to the practice of the reinsurance business. The decision rendered
by a majority of the arbitrators shall be final and binding on both parties.
Such decision shall be a condition precedent to any right of legal action
arising out of the arbitrated dispute which either party may have against the
other. Judgment upon the award rendered may be entered in any court having
jurisdiction thereof.
E. Each party shall pay the fee and expenses of its own arbitrator and
one-half of the fee and expenses of the third arbitrator. All other expenses
of the arbitration shall be equally divided between the parties.
F. Except as provided above, arbitration shall be based, insofar as
applicable, upon the procedures of the American Arbitration Association.
ARTICLE 17 - SERVICE OF SUIT
A. Pursuant to any statute of any state, territory or district of the
United States which makes provision therefor, the Reinsurers hereon hereby
designate the Superintendent, Commissioner or Director of Insurance or other
officer specified for that purpose in the statute, or his successor or
successors in office, as their 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 Reassured or any beneficiary hereunder arising out of this Contract of
reinsurance, and hereby designates the above-named as the person to whom the
said officer is authorized to mail such process or a true copy thereof.
B. If service is made upon the Superintendent, Commissioner or Director
of Insurance or other officer specified for that purpose in the statute, or
his successor or successors in office, a copy shall simultaneously be sent by
the Reassured by certified mail, return receipt requested, to the Reinsurer at
its business address set forth on the final page of this Contract.
ARTICLE 18 - OFFSET
The Reassured and the Reinsurer may offset any balance or amount due from
one party to the other under this Contract or any other reinsurance contract
heretofore or hereafter entered into between the Reassured and the Reinsurer,
whether acting as assuming reinsurer or ceding company. However, in the event
of the insolvency of any party hereto, offset shall only be allowed in
accordance with applicable law.
ARTICLE 19 - INSOLVENCY
In the event of the insolvency of the Reassured, this reinsurance shall be
payable directly to the Reassured, or to its liquidator, receiver, conservator
or statutory successor on the basis of the liability of the Reassured without
diminution because of the insolvency
11
of the Reassured or because the liquidator, receiver, conservator or statutory
successor of the Reassured 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 Reassured shall give written notice to the Reinsurer of the
pendency of a claim against the Reassured indicating the policy insured 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 their own expense,
in the proceeding where such claim is to be adjudicated, any defense or
defenses that they may deem available to the Reassured 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 Reassured 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 Reassured
solely as a result of the defense undertaken by the Reinsurer.
ARTICLE 20 - ACCESS TO RECORDS
The Reassured shall place at the disposal of the Reinsurer at all
reasonable times, and the Reinsurer shall have the right to inspect through
their designated representatives, during the term of this Contract and
thereafter, all books, records and papers of the Reassured in connection with
any reinsurance hereunder, or the subject matter hereof.
ARTICLE 21 - MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS
A. Non-Waiver of Breach. Any party hereto may specifically waive any
breach of this Contract by another party, but no such waiver shall be deemed to
have been given unless such waiver is in writing, signed by the waiving party
and specifically designating the breach waived, nor shall any such waiver
constitute a continuing waiver of similar or other breaches.
B. Validity. Whenever possible, each provision of this Contract shall be
interpreted so that it is valid under applicable law. In case any one or more
of the provisions of this Contract is to any extent found to be invalid,
illegal or unenforceable in any respect under applicable law, that provision
shall still be effective to the extent it remains valid and the validity,
legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein shall
not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.
C. Entire Agreement. This Contract contains the complete agreement among
the parties and supersedes all prior discussions, agreements and understandings
between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof. This Contract
may not be altered, amended or otherwise modified without the written agreement
of each party.
D. Captions and Headings. The captions and headings throughout this
Contract are for convenience and reference only. The words of the captions and
heading will in no way be held or deemed to define, describe, explain, modify
or limit the meaning of any provisions or the intent of this Contract.
