Binding Limits and Jumbo Limits set forth herein.
For VUL Plans, Reinsurer's Percentage Share for purposes of calculating
the Reinsured Net Amount at Risk is twenty percent ([percentage]). For UL

Reinsured Net Amount at Risk is [percentage]. Reinsured Net Amount at
Risk is as defined in Article 5
Facultative cessions will be negotiated on a case-by-case basis. Ceding

Reinsurer will honor any facultative offer made subject to the provisions
of Article 3.1, and any subsequent reduction in proposed or actual face
