Page 3
amounts for which it may be liable upon receipt of reasonable evidence of
the amount paid (or scheduled to be paid within 14 days) by the Company.
ARTICLE VI - LATE PAYMENTS
A. The provisions of this Article shall not be implemented unless specifically
invoked, in writing, by one of the parties to this Contract.
B. In the event any premium, loss or other payment due either party is not
received by the intermediary named in the Intermediary Article (BRMA 23A)
(hereinafter referred to as the "Intermediary") by the payment due date,
the party to whom payment is due may, by notifying the Intermediary in
writing, require the debtor party to pay, and the debtor party agrees to
pay, an interest penalty on the amount past due calculated for each such
payment on the last business day of each month as follows:
1. The number of full days which have expired since the due date or the
last monthly calculation, whichever the lesser, times
2. 1/365ths of the six-month United States Treasury Xxxx Rate as quoted
in The Wall Street Journal on the first business day of the month for
which the calculation is made; times
3. The amount past due, including accrued interest.
It is agreed that interest shall accumulate until payment of the original
amount due plus interest penalties have been received by the Intermediary.
C. The establishment of the due date shall, for purposes of this Article, be
determined as follows:
1. As respects the payment of routine deposits and premiums due the
Reinsurer, the due date shall be as provided for in the applicable
section of this Contract. In the event a due date is not specifically
stated for a given payment, it shall be deemed due 30 days after the
date of transmittal by the Intermediary of the initial billing for
each such payment.
2. Any claim or loss payment due the Company hereunder shall be deemed
due 10 business days after the proof of loss or demand for payment is
transmitted to the Reinsurer. If such loss or claim payment is not
received within the 10 days, interest will accrue on the payment or
amount overdue in accordance with paragraph B above, from the date the
proof of loss or demand for payment was transmitted to the Reinsurer.
3. As respects any payment, adjustment or return due either party not
otherwise provided for in subparagraphs 1 and 2 of this paragraph C,
the due date shall be as provided for in the applicable section of
this Contract. In the event a due date is not specifically stated for
a given payment, it shall be deemed due 10 business days following
transmittal of written notification that the provisions of this
Article have been invoked.
06\M2U1132 (XXXXXXXX LOGO)
Page 4
For purposes of interest calculations only, amounts due hereunder shall be
deemed paid upon receipt by the Intermediary.
D. Nothing herein shall be construed as limiting or prohibiting a Subscribing
Reinsurer from contesting the validity of any claim, or from participating
in the defense of any claim or suit, or prohibiting either party from
contesting the validity of any payment or from initiating any arbitration
or other proceeding in accordance with the provisions of this Contract. If
the debtor party prevails in an arbitration or other proceeding, then any
interest penalties due hereunder on the amount in dispute shall be null and
void. If the debtor party loses in such proceeding, then the interest
penalty on the amount determined to be due hereunder shall be calculated in
accordance with the provisions set forth above unless otherwise determined
by such proceedings. If a debtor party advances payment of any amount it is
contesting, and proves to be correct in its contestation, either in whole
or in part, the other party shall reimburse the debtor party for any such
excess payment made plus interest on the excess amount calculated in
accordance with this Article.
E. Interest penalties arising out of the application of this Article that are
$100 or less from any party shall be waived unless there is a pattern of
late payments consisting of three or more items over the course of any
12-month period.
ARTICLE VII - OFFSET (BRMA 36D)
The Company and the Reinsurer, each at its option, may offset any balance or
balances, whether on account of premiums, claims and losses, loss expenses or
salvages due from one party to the other under this Contract; provided, however,
that in the event of the insolvency of a party hereto, offsets shall only be
allowed in accordance with applicable statutes and regulations.
ARTICLE VIII - ACCESS TO RECORDS (BRMA 1D)
The Reinsurer or its designated representatives shall have access at any
reasonable time to all records of the Company which pertain in any way to this
reinsurance.
ARTICLE IX - ERRORS AND OMISSIONS (BRMA 14F)
Inadvertent delays, errors or omissions made in connection with this Contract or
any transaction hereunder shall not relieve either party from any liability
which would have attached had such delay, error or omission not occurred,
provided always that such error or omission is rectified as soon as possible
after discovery.
06\M2U1132 (XXXXXXXX LOGO)
Page 5
ARTICLE X - CURRENCY (BRMA 12A)
A. Whenever the word "Dollars" or the "$" sign appears in this Contract, they
shall be construed to mean United States Dollars and all transactions under
this Contract shall be in United States Dollars.
B. Amounts paid or received by the Company in any other currency shall be
converted to United States Dollars at the rate of exchange at the date such
transaction is entered on the books of the Company.
ARTICLE XX - XXXXX (XXXX 00X)
In consideration of the terms under which this Contract is issued, the Company
will not claim a deduction in respect of the premium hereon when making tax
returns, other than income or profits tax returns, to any state or territory of
the United States of America or the District of Columbia.
ARTICLE XII - FEDERAL EXCISE TAX
A. The Reinsurer has agreed to allow for the purpose of paying the Federal
Excise Tax the applicable percentage of the premium payable hereon as
imposed under Section 4371 of the Internal Revenue Code to the extent such
premium is subject to the Federal Excise Tax.
B. In the event of any return of premium becoming due hereunder the Reinsurer
will deduct the applicable percentage from the return premium payable
hereon and the Company or its agent should take steps to recover the tax
from the United States Government.
ARTICLE XIII - FUNDING REQUIREMENTS
A. The Reinsurer agrees to fund, within 30 days of the Company's request,
subject to receipt of satisfactory information from the Company, its share
of the Company's ceded unearned premium and outstanding loss reserves
(being the sum of all reinstatement premiums paid by the Company under the
Underlying Contract but not yet recovered from the Reinsurer, plus the
Company's reserves for reinstatement premiums due under the Underlying
Contract, if any) by:
1. Clean, irrevocable and unconditional letters of credit issued and
confirmed, if confirmation is required by the insurance regulatory
authorities involved, by a bank or banks meeting the NAIC Securities
Valuation Office credit standards for issuers of letters of credit and
acceptable to said insurance regulatory authorities; and/or
2. Escrow accounts for the benefit of the Company; and/or
3. Cash advances;
06\M2U1132 (XXXXXXXX LOGO)
Page 6
if the Reinsurer is unauthorized in any state of the United States of
America or the District of Columbia having jurisdiction over the Company
and if, without such funding a penalty would accrue to the Company on any
financial statement, including but not limited to quarterly filings, it is
required to file with the insurance regulatory authorities involved.
The Reinsurer, at its sole option, may fund in other than cash if its
method of funding is acceptable to the Company and to the insurance
regulatory authorities involved.
For the purpose of this Contract, the Lloyd's U.S. Credit for Reinsurance
Trust Fund shall be considered an acceptable funding instrument.
B. With regard to funding in whole or in part by letters of credit, it is
agreed that each letter of credit will be in a form acceptable to insurance
regulatory authorities involved, will be issued for a term of at least one
year and will include an "evergreen clause," which automatically extends
the term for at least one additional year at each expiration date unless
written notice of non-renewal is given to the Company not less than 30 days
prior to said expiration date or longer where required by insurance
regulatory authorities. The Company and the Reinsurer further agree,
notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Contract, that said
letters of credit may be drawn upon by the Company or its successors in
interest at any time, without diminution because of the insolvency of the
Company or the Reinsurer, but only for one or more of the following
purposes:
1. To reimburse itself for the Reinsurer's share of reinstatement
premiums paid by the Company under the terms of the Underlying
Contract, unless paid in cash by the Reinsurer;
2. To reimburse itself for the Reinsurer's share of any other amounts
claimed to be due hereunder, unless paid in cash by the Reinsurer;
3. To fund a cash account in an amount equal to the Reinsurer's share of
any ceded unearned premium and/or outstanding loss reserves funded by
means of a letter of credit which is under non-renewal notice, if said
letter of credit has not been renewed or replaced by the Reinsurer 10
days prior to its expiration date;
4. To refund to the Reinsurer any sum in excess of the actual amount
required to fund the Reinsurer's share of the Company's ceded unearned
premium and/or outstanding loss reserves, if so requested by the
Reinsurer.
In the event the amount drawn by the Company on any letter of credit is in
excess of the actual amount required for B(1) or B(3), or in the case of
B(2), the actual amount determined to be due, the Company shall promptly
return to the Reinsurer the excess amount so drawn.
ARTICLE XIV - INSOLVENCY
A. In the event of the insolvency of one or more of the reinsured companies,
this reinsurance shall be payable directly to the company or to its
liquidator, receiver, conservator or statutory successor on the basis of
the liability of the company without diminution because of the insolvency
of the company or because the liquidator, receiver, conservator or
06\M2U1132 (XXXXXXXX LOGO)
Page 7
statutory successor of the company 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 company shall give written notice
to the Reinsurer of the pendency of a claim against the company indicating
the policy or bond reinsured 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 its own expense, in the proceeding where such
claim is to be adjudicated, any defense or defenses that it may deem
available to the company 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 company 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 company solely as a
result of the defense undertaken by the Reinsurer.
B. Where two or more reinsurers are involved in the same claim and a majority
in interest elect to interpose defense to such claim, the expense shall be
apportioned in accordance with the terms of this Contract as though such
expense had been incurred by the company.
C. It is further understood and agreed that, in the event of the insolvency of
one or more of the reinsured companies, the reinsurance under this Contract
shall be payable directly by the Reinsurer to the company or to its
liquidator, receiver or statutory successor, except as provided by Section
4118(a) of the New York Insurance Law or except (1) where this Contract
specifically provides another payee of such reinsurance in the event of the
insolvency of the company or (2) where the Reinsurer with the consent of
the direct insured or insureds has assumed such policy obligations of the
company as direct obligations of the Reinsurer to the payees under such
policies and in substitution for the obligations of the company to such
payees.
ARTICLE XV - ARBITRATION
A. As a condition precedent to any right of action hereunder, any dispute or
difference between the Company and any Reinsurer relating to the
interpretation or performance of this Contract, including its formation or
validity, or any transaction under this Contract, whether arising before or
after termination, shall be submitted to arbitration.
B. If more than one reinsurer is involved in the same dispute, all such
reinsurers shall constitute and act as one party for purposes of this
Article provided that communication shall be made by the Company to each of
the reinsurers constituting the one party, and provided, however, that
nothing therein 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. Upon written request of any party, each party shall choose an arbitrator
and the two chosen shall select a third arbitrator. If either party refuses
or neglects to appoint an arbitrator within 30 days after receipt of the
written request for arbitration, the requesting party may appoint a second
arbitrator. If the two arbitrators fail to agree on the selection of a
third arbitrator within 30 days of their appointment, the Company shall
petition the American Arbitration Association to appoint the third
arbitrator. If the American Arbitration Association fails to appoint the
third arbitrator within 30 days after it has been requested to do so,
either
06\M2U1132 (XXXXXXXX LOGO)
Page 8
party may request a justice of a court of general jurisdiction of the state
in which the arbitration is to be held to appoint the third arbitrator. All
arbitrators shall be active or retired officers of insurance or reinsurance
companies, or Lloyd's London Underwriters, and disinterested in the outcome
of the arbitration. Each party shall submit its case to the arbitrators
within 30 days of the appointment of the third arbitrator.
D. The parties hereby waive all objections to the method of selection of the
arbitrators, it being the intention of both sides that all the arbitrators
be chosen from those submitted by the parties.
E. The arbitrators shall have the power to determine all procedural rules for
the holding of the arbitration including but not limited to inspection of
documents, examination of witnesses and any other matter relating to the
conduct of the arbitration. The arbitrators shall interpret this Contract
as an honorable engagement and not as merely a legal obligation; they are
relieved of all judicial formalities and may abstain from following the
strict rules of law. The arbitrators may award interest and costs. Each
party shall bear the expense of its own arbitrator and shall share equally
with the other party the expenses of the third arbitrator and of the
arbitration.
F. The decision in writing of the majority of the arbitrators shall be final
and binding upon both parties. Judgment may be entered upon the final
decision of the arbitrators in any court having jurisdiction. The
arbitration shall take place in Pinellas Park, Florida, unless otherwise
mutually agreed between the Company and the Reinsurer.
G. This Article shall remain in full force and effect in the event any other
provision of this Contract shall be found invalid or non-binding.
H. All time limitations stated in this Article may be amended by mutual
consent of the parties, and will be amended automatically to the extent
made necessary by any circumstances beyond the control of the parties.
ARTICLE XVI - SERVICE OF SUIT
(Applicable if the Reinsurer is not domiciled in the United States of America,
and/or is not authorized in any State, Territory or District of the United
States where authorization is required by insurance regulatory authorities. This
Article is not intended to conflict with or override the parties' obligations to
arbitrate their disputes in accordance with the Arbitration Article.)
A. It is agreed that in the event the Reinsurer fails to pay any amount
claimed to be due hereunder, the Reinsurer, at the request of the Company,
will submit to the jurisdiction of any court of competent jurisdiction
within the United States. Nothing in this Article constitutes or should be
understood to constitute a waiver of the Reinsurer's rights to commence an
action in any court of competent jurisdiction in the United States, to
remove an action to a United States District Court, or to seek a transfer
of a case to another court as permitted by the laws of the United States or
of any state in the United States.
B. Further, pursuant to any statute of any state, territory or district of the
United States which makes provision therefore, the Reinsurer hereby
designates the party named in its Interests and Liabilities Agreement, or
if no party is named therein, the Superintendent,
06\M2U1132 (XXXXXXXX LOGO)
Page 9
Commissioner or Director of Insurance or other officer specified for that
purpose in the statute, or his successor or successors in office, as its
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 Company or any
beneficiary hereunder arising out of this Contract.
ARTICLE XVII - AGENCY AGREEMENT
If more than one reinsured company is named as a party to this Contract, the
first named company shall be deemed the agent of the other reinsured companies
for purposes of sending or receiving notices required by the terms and
conditions of this Contract, and for purposes of remitting or receiving any
monies due any party.
ARTICLE XVIII - GOVERNING LAW
This Contract shall be governed as to performance, administration and
interpretation by the laws of the State of Florida exclusive of the rules with
respect to conflicts of law, except as to rules with respect to credit for
reinsurance in which case the applicable rules of all states shall apply.
ARTICLE XIX - CONFIDENTIALITY
The Reinsurer, except with the express prior written consent of the Company,
shall not directly or indirectly, communicate, disclose or divulge to any third
party, any knowledge or information that may be acquired either directly or
indirectly as a result of the inspection of the Company's books, records and
papers. The restrictions as outlined in this Article shall not apply to
communication or disclosures that the Reinsurer is required to make to its
statutory auditors, retrocessionaires, legal counsel, arbitrators involved in
any arbitration procedures under this Contract or disclosures required upon
subpoena or other duly-issued order of a court or other governmental agency or
regulatory authority.
ARTICLE XX - SEVERABILITY
If any provision of this Contract should be invalid under applicable laws, the
latter shall control but only to the extent of the conflict without affecting
the remaining provisions of this Contract.
ARTICLE XXI - INTERMEDIARY (BRMA 23A)
Xxxxxxxx, Inc. is hereby recognized as the Intermediary negotiating this
Contract for all business hereunder. All communications (including but not
limited to notices, statements, premium, return premium, commissions, taxes,
losses, loss adjustment expense, salvages and loss settlements) relating thereto
shall be transmitted to the Company or the Reinsurer through Xxxxxxxx, Inc.

payment to the Reinsurer. Payments by the Reinsurer to the Intermediary shall be
deemed to
06\M2U1132 (XXXXXXXX LOGO)

constitute payment to the Company only to the extent that such payments are
