Exhibit A (Revised [*])
RETENTION LIMITS OF THE CEDING COMPANY
A.1 Life Insurance
[*]
For all policies other than [*], Variable Universal Life policies with issue date [*] or later, [*], for purposes of determining Per Life or Joint Life Retention on automatically ceded business, Ceding Company will retain [*] of the Specified Amount of any base policy or rider up to the Per Life or Joint Life Retention Limit, as appropriate, specified in the above charts.
For [*], for Variable Universal Life policies with issue date [*] or later, [*], and for all associated riders, for purposes of determining Per Life Retention on automatically ceded business, Ceding Company will retain [*] of the Specified Amount of any base policy or rider up to the Per Life Retention Limit as specified in the above chart.
Calculation of Retained Share, in cases where the Per Life or Joint Life Retention Limit is reached, is explained below.
In determining whether the Per Life Retention Limit has been reached for any insured life, retained amounts on all in force single life coverages (and one-half of the retained amounts on joint life coverages) issued by the Ceding Company, will be added together to determine the Ceding Company's available retention for policies reinsured under any agreement; such retained amounts to be determined based on records maintained by the Ceding Company. The Ceding Company's retention will be filled oldest policy first, and if multiple coverages are effective on the same date, then in the following order: (i) single life policies, (ii) single life riders other than Survivor Insured Rider, (iii) Survivor Insured Rider, (iv) one half of joint life policies, (v) one half of riders on joint life policies. The Per Life Retention Limit applies to risk retained by the Ceding Company regardless of whether the policies on the life are reinsured on an automatic or facultative basis.
In determining whether the Joint Life Retention Limit has been reached for a policy on any pair of insured lives, retained amounts on all in force single life coverages on either life (and, for each life, one-half of the retained amounts on any joint life coverages on that life) issued by the Ceding Company, will be added together to determine the Ceding Company's available retention for joint life policies on the two lives reinsured under any agreement; such retained amounts to be determined based on records maintained by the Ceding Company. The Ceding Company's retention will be filled oldest policy first, and if multiple coverages are effective on the same date, then in the following order: (i) single life policies on either life; (ii) single life riders other than Survivor Insured Rider on either life; (iii) Survivor Insured Rider on either life; (iv) for either life, one half of joint life policies; (v) for either life, one half of riders on joint life policies. The Joint Life Retention Limit applies to risk retained by the Ceding
Company regardless of whether the policies on the lives are reinsured on an automatic or facultative basis.
Retained Share means that portion of the Net Amount at Risk which is not ceded to reinsurers. Retained Share for automatic business shall mean the amount produced by the following formula: [(a divided by b) times c] where:
"a" equals [*] [*], for Variable Universal Life policies with issue date [*] or later, [*], and for all associated riders) of the Specified Amount up to the amount that would cause Ceding Company to exceed its Per Life Retention Limit;
"b" is the Specified Amount; and
"c" is the Net Amount at Risk.
Retained Share for facultative cessions will be determined by the same formula but the percentage used in the calculation shall be determined by the Ceding Company on a case-by- case basis at the time of issue, provided the amount retained is not inconsistent with the terms of the facultative offer accepted by the Ceding Company. For facultative policies, it is understood the Ceding Company may at its option retain an amount more or less than its normal retention as described above, unless otherwise specified in the Reinsurer's facultative offer.
