insuring various risks against certain hazards as authorized by Chapter 17,
Texas Insurance Code; and
WHEREAS, General Agent is in the business of underwriting, causing to be
issued and servicing insurance policies and in supervising local agency and
field operations on behalf of insurance companies; and
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual benefits to be derived by
the parties hereto, it is agreed as follows:
I. AUTHORITY OF GENERAL AGENT
General Agent is an independent contractor, not an employee or partner of
Insurer, and nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to create an
employer/employee, partnership, or joint venture relationship between
Insurer and General Agent.
Subject to requirements imposed by law, the terms of this Agreement, and
the underwriting policies, rules and guidelines of Insurer as specifically
provided to General Agent, General Agent is authorized to:
A. Subject to the absolute right of Insurer to reject, cancel or not
renew any policy or risk to the extent permitted by applicable law or
regulation, General Agent is authorized on behalf of Insurer, during
the effective period of this Agreement, to underwrite, cause to be
issued, and service insurance policies within the scope and limits
granted in the schedules attached hereto as Exhibit A and Exhibit B,
which schedules may from time to time be amended pursuant to Section
IV herein.
B. Only upon review and prior written approval of any reinsurers and
reinsurance agreements by Insurer:
1. Bind reinsurance or retrocessions on behalf of Insurer;
2. Collect a payment from a reinsurer; and
3. Commit Insurer to a claim settlement with a reinsurer.

General Agent shall promptly forward a report to Insurer for any
actions taken pursuant to such prior approval. General Agent, on
behalf of Insurer, shall neither cede reinsurance to a company which
does not qualify for reinsurance credit under Article 5.75-1 of the
Texas Insurance Code, nor cede, arrange, facilitate or bind Insurer
to a reinsurer that General Agent knows is or will be unable to
fulfill its obligations under the reinsurance agreement. It is the
intent of the parties hereto that General Agent indemnify Insurer
from any loss or damage which may result from reinsurance placed by
General Agent for Insurer which arises from any act, error or
omission by General Agent after the date of this Agreement. If as of
the effective date of the Agreement, first written above, or at any
time thereafter, General Agent is unable to provide reinsurance as
required by the terms of this Section, it is understood and agreed
that General Agent will not bind or write any policy on behalf of
Insurer to take effect at or after said date, and that General Agent
shall immediately cancel any policy that it may have bound or written
on behalf of Insurer to take effect at or after said date. General
Agent shall have no authority to commit Insurer to participate in
insurance or reinsurance syndicates.
C. Provide all usual and customary services of a managing general agent
on all insurance contracts placed by General Agent with Insurer.
D. Collect (net of commissions due producers or brokers), account for,
receipt for, and pay premiums on business General Agent writes, and,
as full compensation, to retain commissions out of premiums so
collected in amounts as specified in Exhibit A. General Agent agrees
that all premiums, including return premiums received by General
Agent, are Insurer's property.
E. Exercise General Agent's authority through authorized employees or
affiliates of General Agent.
F. Represent other companies.
G. Exercise exclusive and independent control of General Agent's time
and conduct.
H. Accept applications and appoint agents and producers on behalf of
Insurer. MGA is responsible for assuring that the agent or producer
appointed is at all times lawfully licensed to transact the type of
insurance for which he is appointed and is not serving on Insurer's
or MGA's Board of Directors. All contracts made with such agents or
producers shall be made directly with MGA. Payment of all
commissions paid on policies secured by such agent or producer shall
be made directly to the agent or producer by MGA and those agents or
producers shall have no claims whatsoever against Insurer for
commissions, expenses, costs or otherwise, whether based on tort law,
contract law, statutory law (including but not limited to
Art. 21.11-1, Texas Insurance Code), a regulation or any other legal
2
or equitable theory. MGA shall be responsible to Insurer and its
reinsurers for the fidelity and honesty of its agents or producers
and for all funds collected or business done by or entrusted to said
agents or producers. MGA shall indemnify and save Insurer and its
reinsurers harmless from all losses, claims, demands, expenses, legal
fees and court costs, causes of action, damages, judgments and
settlements resulting from or growing out of the acts or transactions
of its employees or its agents or producers.
MGA shall be authorized to terminate agents and producers appointed
to Insurer for this program only after prior written approval of
Insurer.
Insurer retains the right to reject or terminate any agent or
producer appointed by MGA to Insurer or to revoke this appointment
and termination authority given MGA by Insurer immediately upon
written notice.
As a result of the authority granted above, MGA shall report, in a
form agreeable to Insurer, the appointments and terminations of its
agents made during each month, as well as the most current,
cumulative list of outstanding agent appointments. This report shall
be due to Insurer within fifteen (15) days of each month end.

cooperate with and assist Insurer in recovering such items from third
parties, if any. If General Agent fails to deliver said property
within sixty (60) days after date of receipt of notice of intent to
