BUSINESS COVERED A. By this contract (the "Contract") the Company cedes to the Reinsurer and the Reinsurer hereby accepts, assumes liability for, and reinsures the Company's 100% share in the interests and liabilities arising out of directly or indirectly, in whole or in part or in connection with the Aggregate Excess of Loss Credit Insurance Policy (policy number ), effective February 1, 2020 (hereinafter referred to as the "Policy") issued to Federal National Mortgage Association (hereinafter referred to as the "Insured"). This reinsurance is a 100% cession of all of the Company's liability under the Policy. The reinsurance shall inure to the benefit of the Insured, subject to and in accordance with the terms, provisions, conditions and stipulations of the Policy and the provisions of this Contract. As set forth in this Contract, the Insured shall have the right to bring an action against the Reinsurer to recover the loss sustained by the Insured for which the Reinsurer is liable hereunder.
B. A copy of the Policy and the Required Collateral Percentage matrix are attached to, form part of, and are incorporated into this Contract as Exhibit A and Schedule 1, respectively. The Assumption of Liability Endorsement and the Reinsurance Trust Agreement are attached to each Subscribing Reinsurer's Interests and Liabilities Agreement, and form part of and are incorporated into this Contract as Exhibit B and Exhibit C, respectively, for each Subscribing Reinsurer.
C. Nothing herein shall be construed as prejudicing the rights of the Insured under the Policy in any manner.
D. The Reinsurer's liability shall attach simultaneously with that of the Company under the Policy, and all cessions to the Reinsurer by virtue of this Contract shall be subject in all respects to the same risks, terms, conditions, interpretations, assessments, waivers, modifications, alterations and cancellations as in the Policy of the Company to which the cessions relate, the true intent of this Contract being that the Reinsurer shall, in every case to which this Contract applies, follow the fortunes of the Company under the Policy.
E. The Reinsurer acknowledges that:
1. Except as expressly permitted by the Policy, the obligation of the Company to make payment under the Policy is unconditional, irrevocable and non-cancellable by the Company for any reason; and
2. Except as to those rights expressly retained in the Policy, the Company has waived, and agreed not to assert, any and all rights (whether by counterclaim, set-off or otherwise) and defenses (including any defense of fraud or any defense based on misrepresentation, breach of warranty, or non-disclosure of information by any person) whether acquired by subrogation, assignment or otherwise to the extent such rights and defenses may be available to the Company to avoid payment of its obligations under the Policy in accordance with the express provisions of the Policy.
F. If and to the extent there is any conflict between this Contract and the Policy, the Policy shall govern and control, unless (and only to the extent) a particular portion of this Contract expressly states that it controls in the event of a conflict with the Policy.
G. A Subscribing Reinsurer shall provide the Company and the Insured with written notice at least thirty (30) days in advance of the date upon which the aggregate of all amounts retroceded to one or more unaffiliated entities in the aggregate exceeds more than fifty percent (50.0%) of the liabilities assumed by such Subscribing Reinsurer under this Contract.
General Liability Coverage The CONTRACTOR shall maintain commercial general liability insurance in an amount of not less than one million dollars ($1,000,000) per occurrence for bodily injury, personal injury, and property damage. If a commercial general liability insurance form or other form with a general aggregate limit is used, either the general aggregate limit shall apply separately to the work to be performed under this Agreement or the general aggregate limit shall be at least twice the required occurrence limit.
Risk Retention The Equityholder hereby covenants, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Collateral Agent and, in respect of paragraphs (d) and (e) below only, the Servicer that, for so long as any Advance remains outstanding:
(a) it will retain, as originator, on an ongoing basis, a material net economic interest in the form specified in paragraph (d) of Article 6(3) of the Securitisation Regulation, being retention of the first loss tranche and, if necessary, other tranches having the same or a more severe risk profile than those transferred or sold to investors and not maturing any earlier than those transferred or sold to investors, through maintaining funding to the Borrower under the LLC Agreement, in an amount equal to not less than 5% of the Retention Basis Amount (such net economic interest being the “Retention”);
(b) neither it nor any of its Affiliates will sell, hedge or otherwise mitigate its credit risk under or associated with the Retention where to do so would cause the transaction contemplated by the Facility Documents to cease to be compliant with the EU Retention Requirements;
(c) it will take such further action, provide such information as is in its possession (provided that the provision of such information would not contravene any applicable contract, law or regulation or duties of confidentiality binding on the Equityholder) and enter into such other agreements, in each case, as may reasonably be required by the Borrower, a Lender or the Administrative Agent to satisfy the EU Retention Requirements;
(d) it will confirm to each of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Servicer, each Lender and the Collateral Agent, its continued compliance with the covenants set out at paragraphs (a) and (b) above in each Monthly Report;
(e) it will promptly notify the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Servicer, each Lender and the Collateral Agent in writing if for any reason it fails to comply with either of the covenants set out in paragraphs (a) or (b) above in any way; and
(f) it will notify each of its Affiliates of the contents of paragraph (b) above and shall use reasonable endeavours to procure that each of its Affiliates complies with the terms of paragraph (b) as if it were a party thereto. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, neither the Equityholder nor the Borrower makes any representation as to compliance of the transaction or any of the parties hereto with respect to Securitisation Regulation. Any Person accepting the benefits of this Section 13.22 and/or Section 13.23 below (including any related definitions or provisions), shall be deemed to have agreed to the terms set forth in this paragraph and each Lender hereby represents that is not relying on any of the Borrower, the Servicer or the Equityholder or any of their respective Affiliates, for any financial, tax, legal, accounting, or regulatory advise in connection with the matters set forth in this Section 13.22 and/or Section 13.23 below.
