The reinsurance provided under this Agreement applies to all Policies, other than Novated Contracts, that are (a) issued by the Company and in force as of the Effective Time, (b) issued by the Company after the Effective Time in accordance with Section 5.6 hereof, (c) reinsured by the Company under the terms of any Assumed Reinsurance Agreement as of the Effective Time, and (d) reinstated by the Company in accordance with Section 5.4 hereof (collectively, the “Reinsured Policies”); provided, that “Reinsured Policies” shall not include (i) any Supplementary Contracts or any Policies that have been subject to an Annuitization in accordance with Section 5.5(c) or (ii) the Fixed Spread Policies.

Section 2.2 Reinsuring Clause. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Company hereby cedes and the Reinsurer hereby reinsures on a coinsurance basis as of the Effective Time, 100% (the “Reinsurer’s Share”) of all Reinsured Liabilities.

Section 2.3 Transfer of Assets and Ceding Commission.

(a) Coinsurance Premium.

(i) On the Effective Date, the Company will pay to the Reinsurer an initial coinsurance premium that relates to the Reinsured Policies consisting of (1) assets that are listed and that have Fair Market Values (exclusive of accrued interest) set forth on Annex A-1 (the “Reinsurance Assets”), equal to the Reinsurer’s Share of the following amount: (A) (x) the Statutory Reserves held by the Company with respect to the Reinsured Policies (other than the Captive Policies and the Closed Block Policies), minus (y) the Unavailable Asset Amount, plus (B) the Economic Reserves held by the Company with respect to the Captive Policies, plus (C) the amount of any new Interest Maintenance Reserve that is created at the Effective Time as a direct result of the transactions contemplated by

this Agreement divided by 65%, minus (D) the amount of outstanding policy loans on the Reinsured Policies (other than the Closed Block Policies) (to the extent such policy loans constitute admitted assets under SAP, net of any unearned policy loan interest on such loans but including amounts of interest due and accrued with respect thereto), minus (E) the net due and deferred Premiums on the Reinsured Policies (other than the Closed Block Policies), minus (F) the aggregate Statutory Book Value of the ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ as of the Effective Date plus (2) cash equal to (A) the Interest Maintenance Reserve attributable to the Reinsured Liabilities other than the Closed Block Policies, plus (B) the other liabilities set forth on the Life Reference Balance Sheet, minus (C) the Additional Life Reference Balance Sheet Assets, plus (D) Market Value of the Unavailable Assets, minus (E) the amount of accrued interest on the Reinsurance Assets, multiplied by the ratio of aggregate Fair Market Value of the Reinsurance Assets, divided by the aggregate Statutory Book Value of the Reinsurance Assets, in the case of each of clauses (1)(A), (1)(D), (1)(E), (2)(A) and (2)(D) determined in accordance with SAP, consistently applied, as of the Effective Time (such amount, the “Initial Coinsurance Premium”). For the avoidance of doubt, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, for purposes of calculating the Initial Coinsurance Premium, the term “Reinsured Policies” shall not include the portion of the Policies from which Net Retained Liabilities, if any, arise. The Reinsurance Assets set forth in clause (1) will consist of assets having an aggregate Statutory Book Value on the Company’s books and records as of the Effective Time equal to the amount set forth in clause (1) of the Initial Coinsurance Premium without taking into account the amounts set forth in sub clause (1)(C) thereof.

(ii) The Company shall cause the Closed Block Financing Assets as of the Effective Time to consist of those assets set forth on Annex H.

(iii) The amount of the Initial Coinsurance Premium paid on the Effective Date shall be determined on an estimated basis (the “Estimated Initial Coinsurance Premium”) as follows: (x) with respect to each of the items set forth in clauses (1)(A), (B) and (D) and (2)(A), (B), (C) and (E) of the definition of “Initial Coinsurance Premium,” the portion of the Estimated Initial Coinsurance Premium attributable to such items shall be equal to the respective amounts set forth on the Life Reference Balance Sheet; and (y) with respect to the item set forth in clauses (1)(C) and (2)(D) of the definition of “Initial Coinsurance Premium,” the portion of the Estimated Initial Coinsurance Premium attributable to such item shall be determined by the Company in good faith and in a manner consistent with the principles governing the preparation of the Life Reference Balance Sheet on an estimated basis as of the date that is three (3) Business Days prior to the Effective Date.

(iv) On the Effective Date, the Company shall deliver to the Reinsurer a statement setting forth (A) the amount of the Estimated Initial Coinsurance Premium, determined as of the date that is three (3) Business Days prior to the Effective Date, and (B) the final list of Reinsurance Assets on Annex A-1 and Unavailable Assets on Annex A-2, and will include the Fair Market Value of the Reinsurance Assets and Unavailable Assets, determined as of the date that is three (3) Business Days prior to the Effective Date.

(v) No later than fifty (50) Business Days after the Effective Date, the Company shall deliver to the Reinsurer a statement (the “Initial Coinsurance Premium Reconciliation Statement”) prepared in good faith by the Company, in the same form as, and using the same principles that govern, the Life Reference Balance Sheet, setting forth, as of the Effective Date, (1) the calculation of each of the items set forth in clauses (1)(A)-(F) and (2)(A)-(E) of the definition in each of the “Initial Coinsurance Premium” (such amount, the “Actual Initial Coinsurance Premium”) and (2) the Fair Market Value of the Reinsurance Assets as of the Effective Date. The “Initial Coinsurance Premium Adjustment” shall be equal to the following amount (whether positive or negative): (A) the difference (whether positive or negative) between the Actual Initial Coinsurance Premium minus the Estimated Initial Coinsurance Premium, minus (B) the difference (whether positive or negative) between the Fair Market Value of the Reinsurance Assets on the Effective Date minus the Fair Market Value of the Reinsurance Assets determined in connection with the calculation of the Estimated Initial Coinsurance Premium pursuant to Section 2.3(a)(i). If the Initial Coinsurance Premium Adjustment is positive, then the Company shall pay to the Reinsurer an amount of cash equal to the Initial Coinsurance Premium Adjustment within five (5) Business Days after the Initial Coinsurance Premium Adjustment is finalized pursuant to Section 11.1, together with an amount of interest on the Initial Coinsurance Premium Adjustment at the Applicable Rate, calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days elapsed, accrued from the Effective Date until, but not including, the date of payment. If the Initial Coinsurance Premium Adjustment is negative, then the Reinsurer shall pay to the Company an amount of cash equal to the absolute value of the Initial Coinsurance Premium Adjustment within five (5) Business Days after the Initial Coinsurance Premium Adjustment is finalized pursuant to Section 11.1, together with an amount of interest on the Initial Coinsurance Premium Adjustment at the Applicable Rate, calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days elapsed, accrued from the Effective Date until, but not including, the date of payment.

(vi) No later than thirty (30) Business Days following any final adjustments to the Purchase Price (as defined in the SPA) in accordance with Annex C of the SPA, the Company shall deliver to the Reinsurer a statement (the “SPA Coinsurance Premium Reconciliation Statement”) prepared in good faith by the Company, in the same form as, and using the same principles that govern, the Life Reference Balance Sheet, setting forth, as of the Effective Date, (1) the calculation of each of the items set forth in clauses (1)(A)-(F) and (2)(A)-(E)of the definition in each of the “Initial Coinsurance Premium” (such amount, the “SPA Adjusted Coinsurance Premium”) and (2) the Fair Market Value of the Reinsurance Assets as of the Effective Date. The “SPA Coinsurance Premium Adjustment” shall be equal to the following amount (whether positive or negative): (A) the difference (whether positive or negative) between the SPA Adjusted Coinsurance Premium minus the Actual Initial Coinsurance Premium, minus (B) the difference (whether positive or negative) between the Fair Market Value of the Reinsurance Assets determined in connection with the calculation of the SPA Adjusted Coinsurance Premium minus the Fair Market Value of the Reinsurance Assets determined in connection with the calculation of the Actual Initial Adjusted Coinsurance Premium. If the SPA Coinsurance Premium Adjustment is positive, then the Company shall pay to the Reinsurer an amount of cash equal to the SPA Coinsurance

Premium Adjustment within five (5) Business Days after the SPA Coinsurance Premium Adjustment is finalized pursuant to Section 11.1, together with an amount of interest on the SPA Coinsurance Premium Adjustment at the Applicable Rate, calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days elapsed, accrued from the Effective Date until, but not including, the date of payment. If the SPA Coinsurance Premium Adjustment is negative, then the Reinsurer shall pay to the Company an amount of cash equal to the absolute value of the SPA Coinsurance Premium Adjustment within five (5) Business Days after the SPA Coinsurance Premium Adjustment is finalized pursuant to Section 11.1, together with an amount of interest on the SPA Coinsurance Premium Adjustment at the Applicable Rate, calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days elapsed, accrued from the Effective Date until, but not including, the date of payment.

(vii) The Initial Coinsurance Premium Adjustment and the SPA Coinsurance Premium Adjustment shall be paid in cash, but shall be calculated as though such adjustments were payable by transferring a combination of cash and assets having the same ratio of Fair Market Value to Statutory Book Value as the Reinsurance Assets on the Effective Date.

(b) Ceding Commission. In consideration of the reinsurance ceded hereunder, on the Effective Date, the Company shall pay a ceding commission to the Reinsurer equal to $203,000,000 (the “Ceding Commission”). In addition, on the Effective Date, the Reinsurer shall pay to the Company an amount equal to $335,000,000.

Section 2.4 Net Retained Liabilities.

(a) The Company shall be solely responsible for, and the Reinsurer will cooperate reasonably to obtain all waivers and consents necessary in order to reinsure 100% of the Net Retained Liabilities under this Agreement. The Company and the Reinsurer, at the Company’s reasonable instruction, shall each use their reasonable best efforts in the context of current market conditions to obtain any such waivers and consents (it being understood that the Company’s and the Reinsurer’s executive officers shall, to the extent reasonably appropriate, be personally engaged in that process) and promptly advise the other Party of any communications with respect to any such waivers and consents. All correspondence from the Reinsurer to any Person from whom such a waiver or consent is sought shall be in a form approved by the Company. The Company shall effect any such action with respect to such waivers and consents, including sending correspondence requesting such waivers and consents. To the extent that after the Effective Time, any written waivers or consents are obtained to reinsure a Net Retained Liability in respect of a Policy under the terms of this Agreement or the Parties otherwise agree in writing that any such waivers or consents shall not be required as a condition to coverage of such Policy hereunder, then the liability and obligation pertaining to such Policy shall no longer be deemed a Net Retained Liability for purposes of this Agreement and the liability and obligation pertaining to such Policy shall be reinsured hereunder effective as of the date of such written consent, waiver or agreement by the Parties, as applicable.

(b) With respect to any such written waiver or consent that is obtained or any such other agreement between the Parties that any such waivers or consents shall not be required as a condition to coverage hereunder, in each case, after the Effective Date:

(i) the Company shall pay the Reinsurer an amount of cash equal to the Net Retained Liability Reserve Transfer Amount with respect to such Net Retained Liability for which waiver or consent was obtained or with respect to which the Parties agreed did not require a consent or waiver as a condition to coverage hereunder;

(ii) the Company shall deliver to the Reinsurer a statement setting forth the Company’s good faith calculation of the difference (whether positive or negative) between (x) the aggregate amount of the premiums and considerations, premium adjustments and any and all amounts or payments, including any and all policy fees, charges, reimbursements, reinsurance recoverables and similar amounts, received or collected by the Company in respect of the portion of the Policies from which the relevant Net Retained Liabilities arise during the period following the Effective Date and prior to the date on which such waiver or consent was obtained or with respect to which the Parties agreed such waiver or consent was not required as a condition to coverage hereunder (the “Net Retained Liabilities Adjustment Period”); and (y) the aggregate amount equal to the obligations, including any and all death claims, cash surrender benefits, policyholder dividends, reinsurance premiums, commissions and similar amounts, arising out of or relating to the portion of the Policies from which the relevant Net Retained Liabilities arise (including Extra Contractual Obligations) incurred by the Company during the Net Retained Liabilities Adjustment Period. If such amount is positive, then such amount shall be due to be paid the Company by the Reinsurer, and if such amount is negative, then such amount shall be due to be paid to the Reinsurer by the Company, in each case, together with an amount of interest on such payment at the Applicable Rate, calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days elapsed, accrued from the Effective Date until, but not including, the date of payment.

(iii) The payment of the amounts in clauses (i) and (ii) shall be reflected in the Net Settlement for the month in which such consent or waiver was obtained and paid in accordance with Section 6.2.

(c) For the avoidance of doubt, prior to obtaining any such required written consents or waivers, or the making of any such written agreement, the portion of each Policy from which Net Retained Liabilities arise shall not be deemed to constitute a Reinsured Policy for purposes of this Agreement; provided that the Reinsurer shall provide administrative services with respect to any Net Retained Liabilities (and the associated Policies) pursuant to the Administrative Services Agreement. Except as otherwise contemplated by this Section 2.4, the Company shall bear the cost of obtaining any waivers or consents to reinsure a Net Retained Liability.

(d) Until 100% of the Net Retained Liabilities have been reinsured under this Agreement, the Net Settlement for each month shall reflect an adjustment to the Ceding

Commission calculated by reference to the then-current amount of the Net Retained Liabilities in accordance with Annex C.

Section 2.5 Producer Payments.

(a) Subject to the Transition Services Agreement, the Reinsurer hereby assumes any and all liabilities and obligations of the Company to make, and agrees that it shall be financially responsible for, all Producer Payments owed from and after the Effective Time that are due in respect of premiums collected and received with respect to the Reinsured Policies. The Company hereby designates the Reinsurer as “paying agent” to make such Producer Payments directly to the applicable Producers from and after the Effective Date (except to the extent that AUSA or its Affiliates are making such Producer Payments pursuant to the Transition Services Agreement). The Company shall act at the Reinsurer’s written direction and expense to exercise all rights of the Company relating to the Reinsured Policies under the terms of the Producer Agreements, including any rights to suspend or terminate Producer Payments to such Producers for any reason or cause set forth in the Producer Agreements, in each case only to the extent such rights thereunder relate to the Reinsured Policies; provided, however, that the Reinsurer shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company for Losses arising out of any such action so requested by the Reinsurer.

(b) As part of the Net Settlement, the Reinsurer shall pay to the Company from Producer Payments due to a Producer aggregate amounts equal to the agent debit balances, commission claw-backs, agent advances and agent loans maintained by the Company with respect to the applicable Producer and identified by the Company and the Reinsurer, provided that the Reinsurer shall no longer be required to pay such an amount in respect of any balance, claw-back, advance or loan that it acquires from the Company.

(i) The Reinsurer shall pay to the Company a provision for premium taxes and other charges, fees, taxes and assessments, including retaliatory taxes (collectively, “Premium Taxes”), incurred or imposed on or after the Effective Date in connection with premiums written or received under the Reinsured Policies. The provision for Premium Taxes shall be estimated at 1.8% of premiums received under the Reinsured Policies, as

calculated on a monthly basis, and shall be paid by the Reinsurer to the Company as part of the monthly settlement pursuant to Section 6.2 and adjusted annually to an actual rate for each year as part of the monthly settlement pursuant to Section 6.2 for the second calendar month of the following year, with such monthly settlement to reflect the difference between actual Premium Taxes in respect of the Reinsured Policies (after giving effect to any offsets for guaranty fund assessments reimbursed by the Reinsurer pursuant to Section 2.6(a)) and estimated Premium Taxes.

(ii) Each Party shall promptly notify the other in writing upon receipt by it or any of its Affiliates of notice of any pending or threatened Action related to any Premium Taxes or any Tax Returns filed in connection with such Premium Taxes.

(iii) The Company shall have the right to control the conduct of any Action related to any Premium Taxes or any Tax Returns filed in connection with such Premium Taxes, and to employ counsel of the Company’s choice; provided, that the Reinsurer shall be permitted, at the Reinsurer’s expense, to be present at, and to participate in, any Action related to Premium Taxes. Notwithstanding such control, the Company shall not settle, either administratively or after the commencement of litigation, any claim for Premium Taxes without the consent of the Reinsurer, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The Parties shall furnish or cause to be furnished to each other, upon request, as promptly as practicable, such information and assistance relating to the preparation for any Premium Tax audit or other Action related to Premium Taxes, and the prosecution or defense of any Action related to any Premium Taxes or any Premium Tax Returns filed in connection with such Premium Taxes. The Parties shall reasonably cooperate with each other in the conduct of any Action related to any Premium Taxes. Any information obtained under this Section 2.6(b)(iii) shall be kept confidential, except as otherwise reasonably may be required in connection with the filing of Premium Tax Returns or claims for Premium Tax refunds or in conducting any Action related to Premium Taxes.

Section 2.7 Other Reinsurance. This Agreement is written on a “gross” basis and thus the costs and benefits of Other Reinsurance inuring on the Reinsured Policies are intended to be borne by the Reinsurer. Other Reinsurance with respect to the Reinsured Policies shall be deemed to be inuring to the Reinsurer’s benefit for all purposes of this Agreement and shall be accounted for herein such that the Reinsurer participates in the Reinsurer’s Share of any premiums, benefits, recoveries, ceding or expense allowances, other allowances and other adjustments as such amounts and such risks are paid, received or otherwise collected by the Company with respect to such Other Reinsurance, it being understood that the Reinsurer shall bear all risk of collecting third party reinsurance and reinsurance provided by Aviva Re IV (in both cases, except as otherwise provided in Section 3.2(c)). Risks under the terms of any agreement of Other Reinsurance as shall be terminated or recaptured with the Reinsurer’s prior written consent shall be ceded automatically hereunder to the Reinsurer without any further action required, subject to the receipt by the Reinsurer of the Reinsurer’s Share of any reserve transfer or similar transfer or settlement amount received by the Company from the applicable third party reinsurer or Aviva Re IV, as applicable. In connection with any such termination or recapture with the Reinsurer’s prior written consent, the Reinsurer shall pay the Reinsurer’s Share of any resulting special transfer or recapture fee incurred by the

The Company shall also afford the Reinsurer, at the Reinsurer’s expense, the opportunity, to the extent reasonably practicable, to object to such change under applicable administrative procedures; provided, that the Reinsurer may only object to such change in the same manner and to the same extent as it objects to any similar change required by any Applicable Law to substantially similar Novated Contracts.

(b) Non-Guaranteed Elements. The Company will be responsible for determining the cost of insurance charges, loads and expense charges, credited interest rates, mortality and expense charges, administrative expense risk charges and policyholder dividends, as applicable, under the Reinsured Policies (“Non-Guaranteed Elements”); provided, that the Reinsurer may provide written recommendations regarding the Non-Guaranteed Elements to the Company and, provided that such recommendations are the same as the Non-Guaranteed Elements established by the Reinsurer for substantially similar Novated Contracts and comply with the written terms of the Policies, Applicable Law and Actuarial Standards of Practice promulgated by the Actuarial Standards Board governing redetermination of non-guaranteed charges, if the Company does not follow such recommendations, then, the Company shall indemnify and hold harmless the Reinsurer for Losses arising out of the Company’s failure to follow the recommendations of the Reinsurer. The Company may not change the Non-Guaranteed Elements without the Reinsurer’s prior written consent.

Section 2.9 Ownership of Premiums. Payment of Premiums to the Reinsurer, as Administrator pursuant to the Administrative Services Agreement, by or on behalf of a policyholder shall be deemed received by the Company.

The Reinsurer is hereby authorized to endorse for payment to the Reinsurer any such checks, drafts, money orders and other instruments pertaining to the Reinsured Policies that are payable to, or to the order of, the Company and received by the Reinsurer under this Agreement. As between the Parties, the Reinsurer shall be deemed owner of all such payments.

Section 2.10 Assignment; Security Interest.

(a) The Company hereby assigns, transfers and conveys to the Reinsurer, effective as of the Effective Time, all of Company’s right, title and interest (legal, equitable or otherwise), if any, (i) under the Reinsured Policies to receive principal and interest paid on policy loans and (ii) in and to the Premiums, fees and other payments due or made on or after the Effective Date under the Reinsured Policies. The Reinsurer and the Company hereby agree that, in connection with any termination of this Agreement, all of the Reinsurer’s right, title and interest (legal, equitable or otherwise) in and to the items set forth in (i), (ii) and (iii) above shall be immediately assigned, transferred and conveyed to the Company without any further action by the Parties. Each Party, as reasonably requested by the other from time to time, shall take all reasonably appropriate action and execute any reasonably necessary and appropriate additional documents, instruments or conveyances of any kind which may be reasonably necessary to carry out the provisions of this Section 2.10(a).

(b) The Parties intend that at all times prior to the termination of this Agreement the Company’s assignment pursuant to Section 2.10(a) to be a present assignment of all of the Company’s rights, title and interest and not an assignment as collateral. However, to the extent that such assignment is not recognized as a present assignment, is not valid or is recharacterized as a pledge rather than a lawful conveyance to the Reinsurer, the Company does hereby bargain, sell, convey, assign and otherwise pledge to the Reinsurer, and grant a first priority security interest to the Reinsurer in, all of the Company’s right, title and interest (legal, equitable or otherwise), if any, (i) under the Reinsured Policies to receive principal and interest paid on policy loans and (ii) in and to all Premiums, fees and other payments due or made on or after the Effective Date under the Reinsured Policies (collectively, the “Collateral”) to secure all of the Company’s obligations under this Agreement.

(c) Upon the failure of the Company to fully perform any of its material obligations under this Agreement, including Sections 6.2 and 10.5, which failure is not caused by the Reinsurer as Administrator and remains uncured ten (10) days after written notice thereof is received by the Company, the Reinsurer shall have, in addition to all other rights under this Agreement or under Applicable Law, the following rights:

(i) the right to exercise all rights and remedies granted a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code, as said code has been enacted in the State of Iowa or any other applicable jurisdiction (the “UCC”), as though all the Collateral constituted property subject to a security interest under Article 9 thereof;

(ii) the right to set off against any of the Collateral any amounts owed by the Company to the Reinsurer;

(iii) the right to attorneys’ fees incurred in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement or in connection with the disposition of the Collateral; and

(iv) the right to dispose of the Collateral, subject to commercial reasonableness.

(d) This Section 2.10 is being included in this Agreement to ensure that, if an insolvency or other court determines that, notwithstanding the provisions of this Agreement, including Sections 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, 2.9, 6.2 and 13.1, and the intent of this Agreement, the Company retained ownership of or any rights in the Collateral, the Reinsurer’s rights to the Collateral are protected with a first priority, perfected security interest, and it is the intent of the Parties that this Section 2.10 be interpreted as such.

(e) At or prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall file, and the Reinsurer is authorized to file, any and all financing statements reasonably requested by the Reinsurer in order to perfect the Reinsurer’s right title and interest under Article 9 of the UCC in and to the Collateral, and the Company shall do such further acts and things as Reinsurer may reasonably request in order that the security interest granted hereunder may be maintained as a first priority perfected security interest; provided, that the Reinsurer shall be required to bear all out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees) incurred by the Company in connection with any such action or other thing requested by the Reinsurer.

The Company hereby conveys, transfers and assigns to the Reinsurer, effective as of the Effective Date, a 100% interest in the gross proceeds in respect of the ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ purchased by the Company prior to or following the Effective Date, intended to hedge the index risk associated with the Reinsurer’s Share of the Equity Indexed Reinsured Policies (such fractional interest, the “Assigned EI Hedge Interest Proportion”), and each such EI Hedge purchased prior to the Effective Date is set forth on Annex F hereto. Such assignment shall occur automatically, without further action on the part of either Party, upon the purchase by the Company of any EI Hedge or, in the case of any ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ entered into prior to the date hereof, as of the date hereof. ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ assigned under this Section 2.11(a) will be accounted as funds withheld assets payable by the Company to the Reinsurer.

In addition, the Company shall not treat the ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ in any respect in a manner that is different than the manner in which it treats the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ it enters into with respect to equity indexed policies issued by the Company that are not Equity Indexed Reinsured Policies.

(e) The Company agrees that other than as provided expressly in this Agreement, it shall take any actions reasonably requested by the Reinsurer to maintain in full force and effect each of the ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ and to perform fully each of its obligations thereunder. The Company may not modify, amend or terminate any EI Hedge or waive any of its rights under any such EI Hedge without the Reinsurer’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) and shall fully enforce, at the expense of the Reinsurer, all of its rights thereunder, including, at the Reinsurer’s request and if applicable, requiring the collateralization by the Hedge Counterparty of exposure and other amounts required to be paid or delivered thereunder. With the Reinsurer’s prior written consent, the Company may exercise any right it may have to terminate any such EI Hedge and shall, at the Reinsurer’s instruction and expense, effect any discretionary action with respect to the management or administration of the ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ as the Reinsurer shall reasonably request, including termination, as may be available pursuant to the terms and conditions of any EI Hedge; provided, however, that the Reinsurer shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company for Losses arising out of any such discretionary action so requested by the Reinsurer and the Company shall indemnify and hold harmless the Reinsurer for Losses to the extent arising out of any failure by the Company to take any such discretionary action as reasonably requested by the Reinsurer. The Company agrees that it shall, at the direction and at the cost and expense of the Reinsurer, pursue commercially reasonable management and collection efforts with respect to the ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ and, in general, will reasonably cooperate with the Reinsurer in the management and administration of the ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇.

The Company shall promptly advise the Reinsurer of any communications with respect to any such proposed novation. All material, written correspondence from either the Company or the Reinsurer to any Hedge Counterparty in connection with any such proposed novation shall be in a form approved by the other Party; provided that any such approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. At the Reinsurer’s instruction and at the Reinsurer’s cost and expense, the Company shall take any such action with respect to any such proposed novation as Reinsurer shall reasonably request, including sending correspondence requesting that an EI Hedge be novated to the Reinsurer or a designated Affiliate of the Reinsurer in a form approved by the Reinsurer; provided, however, that the Reinsurer shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company for Losses arising out of any such action so requested by the Reinsurer and the Company shall indemnify and hold harmless the Reinsurer for Losses to the extent arising out of any failure by the Company to take any such action as reasonably requested by the Reinsurer.

(a) Following the Effective Date and for so long as the Supplemental Allowance remains payable, Buyer shall provide Seller copies of any amendment made to the documents constituting the Hannover Life Captive Financing and the Swiss Re Captive Financing to the extent such amendment is reasonably expected to change the value of the Supplemental Allowance in accordance with the Reduction Methodology, as well as any change to the investment guidelines under such Captive Financings. For the avoidance of doubt, amendments to such documents include any termination, partial termination or recapture.

The reinsurance by the Reinsurer of the Reinsured Policies is subject to the same rates, conditions, limitations and restrictions as the insurance under the Reinsured Policies written by the Company on which the reinsurance is based. The liability of the Reinsurer hereunder on the terms described herein begins as of the Effective Time and, subject to Article X hereof, the liability of the Reinsurer on any Reinsured Policy will terminate as and when all liability of the Company with respect to such Reinsured Policy terminates.

Section 3.2 Other Reinsurance.

(a) The Company agrees that other than as provided expressly in this Agreement, it shall take any actions reasonably requested by the Reinsurer to maintain in full force and effect each of the Other Reinsurance Agreements and to perform fully each of its obligations thereunder.

Reinsurer’s prior written consent and shall fully enforce, at the expense of the Reinsurer, all of its rights thereunder, including, at the Reinsurer’s request, requiring the collateralization by the third party reinsurer or Aviva Re IV, as applicable, of reserve balances and other amounts thereunder. With the Reinsurer’s prior written consent, the Company may exercise any right it may have to recapture risks ceded thereby under any of the Other Reinsurance Agreements or to otherwise terminate any such agreement and shall, at the Reinsurer’s instruction and expense, effect any such action with respect to the management or administration of the Other Reinsurance as the Reinsurer shall reasonably request, including termination or recapture, as may be available under or with respect to the terms of any Other Reinsurance Agreement; provided, however, that the Reinsurer shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company for Losses arising out of any such action so requested by the Reinsurer. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Administrative Services Agreement, the Company agrees that it shall, at the direction and at the cost and expense of the Reinsurer (including any reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Company), pursue commercially reasonable management and collection efforts with respect to the Other Reinsurance and, in general, will reasonably cooperate with the Reinsurer in the management of the Other Reinsurance.

(b) Following the Effective Date, at the Reinsurer’s expense and reasonable request, the Company shall cooperate with the Reinsurer and shall use its reasonable best efforts in the context of current market conditions to novate any Other Reinsurance from the Company to the Reinsurer or a designated Affiliate of the Reinsurer; provided that there shall be no such obligation to novate the reinsurance provided by Aviva Re IV. The Parties shall promptly advise each other of any communications with respect to any such proposed novation. All correspondence from either the Company or the Reinsurer to any reinsurer under Other Reinsurance in connection with any such proposed novation shall be in a form approved by the other Party; provided that any such approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

The Company agrees that whenever an Other Reinsurance Agreement provides the Company with a right of set-off, the Company shall exercise such right of set-off in the event that amounts are due and unpaid from the Reinsurer. The Company shall have no obligation to pursue any claims it may have for indemnification to which it may be entitled in connection with the Other Reinsurance unless requested to do so by the Reinsurer and at the cost and expense of the Reinsurer (including reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Company). In no event shall any such right to indemnification reduce the

Reinsurer’s responsibility for the risk of all Other Reinsurance. The Reinsurer shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company for Losses arising out of any such action so requested by Reinsurer.

ARTICLE IV
CERTAIN FINANCIAL PROVISIONS

Section 4.1 Provision of Security by the Reinsurer.

(a) On the Effective Date, the Reinsurer shall establish and fund with an amount of cash and assets having a Statutory Book Value equal to the Required Balance, calculated in good faith by the Reinsurer as of the Effective Date based on the information set forth in the statement delivered by the Company pursuant to Section 2.3(a)(iii), a custody account (the “Custody Account”) with a Qualified United States Financial Institution unaffiliated with the Reinsurer and the Company and which is reasonably acceptable to the Reinsurer and the Company (the “Custodian”) at the sole cost and expense of the Reinsurer and shall enter into the Custody Agreement. The Reinsurer shall transfer or pay into the Custody Account, and shall thereafter maintain in the Custody Account, cash and assets managed by the Reinsurer or its designee in accordance with the requirements set forth in the Custody Agreement, having a Statutory Book Value, determined in good faith by the Reinsurer on a quarterly basis, to be not less than the Required Balance.

(b) For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Required Balance,” as of any date of determination, means an amount equal to (i) (A) the Reinsurer’s Share of the Statutory Reserves that would be required to be held by the Company with respect to the Reinsured Policies (other than the Captive Policies and the Closed Block Policies) if this Agreement were not in effect, plus (B) the Reinsurer’s Share of the Economic Reserves that would be required to be held by the Company with respect to the Captive Policies if this Agreement were not in effect, less (C) the amount of any assets supporting Economic Reserves to the extent such assets are held by a Captive Reinsurer or in a trust established by a Captive Reinsurer pursuant to the terms of any Captive Reinsurance Agreement, plus (D) the Reinsurer’s Share of the Interest Maintenance Reserve attributable to the Reinsured Liabilities and the Closed Block Policies, plus (E) the amount of any new Interest Maintenance Reserve that is created at the Effective Time as a direct result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, in each case, as of such date of determination and determined in accordance with SAP, consistently applied, less (F) the amount of outstanding policy loans on the Reinsured Policies (other than the Closed Block Policies) (to the extent such policy loans constitute admitted assets under SAP, net of any unearned policy loan interest on such loans but including amounts of interest due and accrued

with respect thereto), less (G) the net due and deferred Premiums on the Reinsured Policies (other than the Closed Block Policies), less (H) the aggregate Statutory Book Value of the ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ purchased by the Company, in each case, as of such date of determination and determined in accordance with SAP, consistently applied (to the extent SAP is applicable), plus (ii) the Additional Collateral Amount. The Required Balance and the Statutory Book Value of any assets held in the Custody Account shall be calculated by the Reinsurer as of the last day of each calendar quarter, and the Reinsurer shall provide a certification with respect to such valuation, including the Statutory Book Value and Fair Market Value of the assets (both on an asset-by-asset basis and a cumulative basis), to the Company within thirty (30) days after the end of such quarter. If the amount of cash plus the Statutory Book Value of assets held in the Custody Account as of any quarter end is less than the Required Balance as of such quarter end, the Reinsurer shall within five (5) Business Days after such determination is made make such further deposits to the Custody Account as are required in order to restore the Required Balance as of such quarter end. If the amount of cash plus the Statutory Book Value of assets held in the Custody Account as of any quarter end is greater than the Required Balance as of such quarter end, the Reinsurer may provide notice to the Company of its desire to withdraw assets from the Custody Account, specifying the amount and type of assets to be withdrawn. Within five (5) Business Days following its delivery of such notice to the Company, the Reinsurer may withdraw such assets from the Custody Account in excess of the amount necessary to maintain such Required Balance as of the applicable quarter end in accordance with the requirements set forth in the Custody Agreement. Any disputes by the Company of the amount of the Required Balance or the valuation of any asset deposited in the Custody Account pursuant to this Section 4.1 shall be resolved in accordance with Section 11.1. Upon resolution of any such dispute in accordance with Section 11.1, either (A) the Reinsurer shall cause to be deposited additional assets that comply with Section 4.1(a) within two (2) Business Days following such resolution, such that following any such deposit, the amount of cash plus the Statutory Book Value of the assets held in the Custody Account is sufficient to maintain the Required Balance as of the applicable quarter end; or (B) the Reinsurer may withdraw assets from the Custody Account in accordance with this Section 4.1(b), such that following any such withdrawal, the amount of cash plus the Statutory Book Value of the assets held in the Custody Account is sufficient to maintain the Required Balance as of the applicable quarter end. Unless otherwise agreed upon in writing by the Company, the Reinsurer shall maintain the Custody Account until all obligations of the Reinsurer under this Agreement have been fully satisfied, as determined by the Company in its sole discretion.

(c) The Company and the Reinsurer agree that the assets maintained in the Custody Account may be withdrawn by the Company only after a default by the Reinsurer in the performance of its monetary obligations hereunder that is not being disputed by the Reinsurer in good faith, which undisputed payment default has not been cured by the Reinsurer within five (5) Business Days following its receipt of a written notice thereof delivered by the Company. The amount of any such withdrawal in excess of amounts then due to Company hereunder shall be deemed maintained in trust for the benefit of the Reinsurer and promptly returned to the Custody Account. Upon prior written notice to the Company, the Reinsurer shall have the right to substitute or exchange assets maintained in the Custody Account in accordance with the requirements set forth in the Custody Agreement (such substituted or exchanged assets, the

“Replacement Assets”); provided that (i) the aggregate Statutory Book Value of such Replacement Assets that are deposited in or credited to the Custody Account shall be at least equal to the aggregate Statutory Book Value of the assets being removed from the Custody Account, (ii) the ratio of the aggregate Fair Market Value of the non-cash Replacement Assets to the aggregate Statutory Book Value of the non-cash Replacement Assets shall be the same as or greater than the ratio of the aggregate Fair Market Value of the non-cash assets being removed from the Custody Account to the aggregate Statutory Book Value of the non-cash assets being removed from the Custody Account immediately prior to such substitution, (iii) the Replacement Assets shall be deposited in the Custody Account prior to or simultaneously with the removal of assets from the Custody Account in connection with any such substitution or exchange and (v) the Reinsurer shall not make any substitutions under this Section 4.1(c) if it is in default under any other provision of this Agreement.

(d) With respect to the transfer of any Reinsurance Assets to the Custody Account, the Reinsurer will, except as otherwise provided in connection with the Swiss Re Captive Financing, hold valid title to all such Reinsurance Assets free and clear of all liens or other encumbrances, other than interests of nominees, custodians or similar intermediaries. As of the date of the transfer of any assets to the Custody Account after the Effective Date, the Reinsurer will, except as otherwise provided by the Swiss Re Captive Financing, (i) have good and marketable title to all such assets transferred by it to the Custody Account, (ii) all assets transferred by the Reinsurer after the Effective Date to the Custody Account shall be transferred free and clear of any liens other than interests of nominees, custodians or similar intermediaries, and (iii) the Reinsurer will not create, incur, assume or permit any lien or other encumbrance on any of the assets held in the Custody Account, or on any interest therein or on any of the proceeds thereof, other than interests of nominees, custodians or similar intermediaries.

(e) The Reinsurer shall notify the Company in writing of any payment default occurring as to any asset in the Custody Account promptly after the Reinsurer receives notice of such default. In the event the Reinsurer determines that a delinquency of a timely payment in regard to any of the assets in the Custody Account has occurred, the Reinsurer shall inform the Company of such delinquency promptly upon such determination.

(f) Assets in the Custody Account may be withdrawn and applied by the Company or any successor of the Company without diminution because of insolvency on the part of the Company or the Reinsurer only for the following purposes:

(i) to pay to the Company any amount due to be paid out of the Custody Account as part of the Reinsurer Termination Payment to the extent such amount is not being disputed by the Reinsurer in good faith;

(ii) to pay any portion of the Net Settlement due to be paid to the Company from the Custody Account in accordance with Section 6.2(b) to the extent such portion is not being disputed by the Reinsurer in good faith; or

(iii) to pay or reimburse the Company for any other amounts due but not yet recovered from the Reinsurer under this Agreement in order to satisfy liabilities under

the Reinsured Policies (other than the Closed Block Policies) to the extent such amounts are not being disputed by the Reinsurer in good faith.

For the avoidance of doubt, any amounts referred to above that are not the subject of a good faith dispute may be withdrawn and applied for the purposes provided above.

(g) The Reinsurer shall not amend, restate, modify, supplement, assign, terminate, hypothecate, subordinate, discharge or otherwise alter or waive, or consent to amendment, restatement, modification, supplementation, assignment, termination, hypothecation, subordination, dischargement or other alteration or waiver of the Custody Agreement without the prior written consent of the Company, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

Section 4.2 Credit for Reinsurance. If at any time during the term of this Agreement, the Reinsurer fails to hold and maintain all licenses, permits and authorities required under Applicable Law to enable the Company to receive statutory reserve credit for the reinsurance ceded to the Reinsurer hereunder in the Company’s state of domicile, the Reinsurer shall, at its sole expense, establish and maintain security in the form of letters of credit, assets held in a reinsurance trust, funds withheld arrangement or a combination thereof in a manner that meets all Applicable Laws regarding credit for reinsurance, so as to permit the Company to receive full statutory reserve credit for the reinsurance ceded to the Reinsurer hereunder in the Company’s state of domicile.

Section 4.3 RBC Reports.

(a) Within forty-five (45) days following the end of the first three calendar quarters of each year during the term of this Agreement, the Reinsurer shall provide to the Company a report of its RBC Ratio as of the end of such calendar quarter, as estimated in good faith by the Reinsurer.

(b) Within five (5) Business Days of the submission by the Reinsurer to the insurance department of its domiciliary state of a report of its risk-based capital levels as of the end of the previous calendar year, but in no event later than 60 days following the end of each calendar year, the Reinsurer shall provide to the Company written certification of its RBC Ratio as of the end of such calendar year.

Section 4.4 Closed Block Assets.

(a) The Company acknowledges that as of the Effective Time, the Company has ceded 100% of the statutory reserves with respect to the Closed Block Policies to Aviva Re IV in connection with the Closed Block Financing.

(b) Each of the Company and the Reinsurer agrees that it shall not, without the prior written consent of the other party, (i) agree to any amendment or waiver of the terms of the reinsurance provided by Aviva Re IV or any other term of the Closed Block Financing, or (ii) take any action or omit to take any action that would reasonably be expected to terminate

the Closed Block Financing or result in the complete or partial recapture of the reinsurance provided to the Company as of the Effective Time by Aviva Re IV.

(c) In the event that reinsurance provided as of the Effective Time by Aviva Re IV is recaptured in whole or in part by the Company, with the prior written consent of the Reinsurer, either (i) at the maturity of the letter of credit issued pursuant to the Closed Block Financing or (ii) at any other time, the Company shall allocate to a funds withheld account established on its books and records (the “Funds Withheld Account”) a premium that relates to the Closed Block Policies consisting of cash, cash equivalents, policy loans and other assets which were included in the funds withheld account maintained in connection with the Closed Block Financing immediately prior to the recapture, plus the Interest Maintenance Reserve attributable to the Closed Block Policies, minus the net due and deferred Premiums on the Closed Block Policies.

(d) The Funds Withheld Account shall be a notional account established in relation to the Closed Block Policies, and shall be clearly designated on the books, records and information systems of the Company. The Company will retain, control and own the assets allocated to the Funds Withheld Account (the “Funds Withheld Assets”). The Company shall record the balance of the Funds Withheld Account on its statutory financial statements as a payable to the Reinsurer.

(e) Funds Withheld Assets may be withdrawn and applied by the Company or any successor of the Company without diminution because of insolvency on the part of the Company or the Reinsurer only for the following purposes:

(i) to pay to the Company any amount due to be paid out of the Funds Withheld Account as part of the Reinsurer Termination Payment to the extent such amount is not being disputed by the Reinsurer in good faith;

(iv) to pay or reimburse the Company for any other amounts due but not yet recovered from the Reinsurer under this Agreement in order to satisfy liabilities under the Closed Block Policies to the extent such amounts are not being disputed by the Reinsurer in good faith.

For the avoidance of doubt, any amounts referred to above that are not the subject of a good faith dispute may be withdrawn and applied for the purposes provided above.

(f) From and after the Effective Date, whether or not there has been any recapture of the reinsurance provided by Aviva Re IV, the Funds Withheld Assets and the Closed Block Financing Assets (excluding the capital and surplus of Aviva Re IV) shall be managed on behalf of the Company by the Reinsurer or by an investment manager selected by the Reinsurer pursuant to an investment management agreement.

(g) Except with respect to the capital and surplus of Aviva Re IV, the Reinsurer covenants that the Funds Withheld Assets and the Closed Block Financing Assets must be invested in accordance with requirements of Applicable Law, the AmerUS Plan of Reorganization and the AmerUS Closed Block Memorandum.

(b) Such additional layer of reinsurance coverage shall be provided on the following terms:

(i) Pursuant to the Net Settlement, the Reinsurer shall reimburse the Company for the amount of any Capital Reduction suffered during the applicable Monthly Accounting Period, provided that the Reinsurer shall not be obligated to reimburse the Company for Capital Reductions in excess of $53 million in the aggregate (the “Additional Layer”).

(ii) If, after some or all of the Additional Layer has been exhausted, the expected future capacity to pay dividends on the Closed Block Policies is increased above zero under generally accepted actuarial standards, then pursuant to the Net Settlement the Company shall reimburse the Reinsurer for amounts of Additional Layer previously paid to the extent of resulting increases in the capital and surplus of Aviva Re IV during the applicable Monthly Accounting Period until either (x) the expected future capacity to pay dividends on the Closed Block Policies is reduced back to zero or (y) the Additional Layer has been repaid in full to the Reinsurer.

Reinsured Policies ceded under this Agreement shall include any Policy that is reduced, terminated, lapsed or surrendered, and later reinstated pursuant to and in accordance with its policy provisions and will be reinsured by the Reinsurer in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The Reinsurer will retain any Premiums and interest that the Company has received for reinstatement in respect of periods on or after the Effective Date. A terminated Policy that would have been a Reinsured Policy had it been in force at the Effective Time, that later reinstates pursuant to and in accordance with its policy provisions, will be reinsured by the Reinsurer and become a Reinsured Policy. The Reinsurer will be entitled to retain any Premiums and interest for coverage on or after the Effective Date that is received for such reinstatement, and the Company will transfer to the Reinsurer the amount of reserves for such reinstated Reinsured Policy as of the Effective Date, calculated in a manner that is consistent with the reserve calculations used for the other Reinsured Policies. The date of reinsurance for such reinstated Reinsured Policies shall be the Effective Date. For the avoidance of doubt, the reinstated Policies reinsured under this Section 5.4 shall include any Policy treated as lapsed or otherwise terminated prior to the Effective Time under which the Company subsequently becomes liable as a result of a determination that the policyowner, insured or beneficiary has died prior to the lapse or termination.

Section 5.5 Contractual Conversions; Internal Replacement; Annuitizations.

(a) Any conversion, exchange or replacement policy or contract arising from the Reinsured Policies that is converted, exchanged or replaced pursuant to and in accordance with its policy terms shall be deemed to constitute a Reinsured Policy for purposes of this Agreement and, in the event of a conversion, exchange or replacement of any Reinsured Policy, the Reinsurer shall reinsure the risk resulting from such conversion on the basis set forth hereby with respect to the Reinsured Policies; provided, however, that the Reinsurer shall not be required to pay any additional ceding commission with respect to any such converted, exchanged or replacement policy or contract. The Reinsurer will reimburse the Company for any expenses incurred in issuing a converted, exchanged or replacement policy or contract, but only to the extent such expenses are not covered by payments made by the Reinsurer under the Transition Services Agreement.

(b) Absent the Reinsurer’s prior written consent (which may be withheld in its sole discretion), the Company will not solicit owners, beneficiaries or policyholders in connection with, or sponsor or assist, directly or indirectly, in the conduct of, (and will cause each of its Affiliates to refrain from soliciting in connection with, and sponsoring or assisting, directly or indirectly, in the conduct of) any program of internal replacement under which the owners, beneficiaries or policyholders of Reinsured Policies are or would be encouraged to exchange, or assisted in the exchange of, Reinsured Policies for other insurance policies or contracts that are not reinsured under this Agreement. Should the Company or its Affiliates or any of their respective successors or assigns initiate such a program of internal replacement that would include any of the risks reinsured hereunder in violation of the preceding sentence, the Company will immediately notify the Reinsurer. For each risk reinsured hereunder that has been replaced under a program of internal replacement, the Reinsurer shall have the option, at its sole discretion, of either treating the risks reinsured as recaptured on terms reasonably acceptable to the Reinsurer or continuing reinsurance on the new policy under the terms of this Agreement without any additional ceding commission therefor.

(c) Until the earlier of (i) such time as the Reinsurer is able to administer the Reinsured Policies on its information technology systems or (ii) the expiration of the Transition Services Agreement (the “Systems Conversion”), in the event that a Reinsured Policy is annuitized in full under the contract provisions of such policy (each an “Annuitization”), the Company shall convert such Reinsured Policy to one or more Supplementary Contracts. At the time of such conversion, the Reinsurer shall pay to the Company an amount equal to the policy surrender value of such Reinsured Policy as of the time of the conversion (an “Annuitization Payment”) as part of the Net Settlement. Upon the Annuitization of a Reinsured Policy, the Policy and any associated Supplementary Contracts, comprising such Reinsured Policy shall cease to be a Reinsured Policy under this Agreement, and, with the exception of the Annuitization Payment described in this Section 5.4(c) the Reinsurer will have no further liability with respect to such Policy or any associated Supplementary Contracts. For the avoidance of doubt, any Reinsured Policies that undergo an Annuitization following the Systems Conversion will remain Reinsured Policies and the Reinsurer will reinsure any Supplementary Contracts issued with respect to such Reinsured Policies.

Section 5.6 New Policies. From and after the Effective Date, the Company shall issue in its name (a) new Policies issued or reinstated pursuant to Section 5.4 or 5.5(a) and (b) new Policies issued or renewed in accordance the terms of the Administrative Services Agreement.

Section 5.7 Policy List Errors.

(a) The Company or the Reinsurer, as applicable, shall notify the other Party if any life insurance policies or contracts issued or reinsured by the Company and in force as of the Effective Date were inadvertently not included on the Policy List and are determined to be a Policy, which shall in no event include any insurance policies and contracts falling within the following lines of business: health, annuities, funding agreements, corporate-owned life insurance and bank-owned life insurance when sold on a group basis, synthetic guaranteed investment contracts and variable life or other variable business.

(b) If any policies or contracts (or components thereof) are determined to be Policies in accordance with this Section 5.7, then:

(i) the Company shall transfer cash or assets reasonably satisfactory to the Reinsurer in an amount equal to the Statutory Reserves required to be held with respect to such Policies to the extent such Statutory Reserves were not previously transferred to the Reinsurer; and

(ii) the Parties shall adjust the Ceding Commission in a manner consistent with the adjustment required under Section 2.4(b)(ii) in connection with changes in the Net Retained Liabilities to the extent such Ceding Commission relates to an aggregate increase in Statutory Reserves equal to or greater than $10,000,000.

ARTICLE VI
ADMINISTRATION

Section 6.1 Administrative Services. The Parties hereby agree that the Policies, Other Reinsurance Agreements and, subject to Section 2.11, the ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall be administered in accordance with or as otherwise provided in the Administrative Services Agreement and the Transition Services Agreement.

Section 6.2 Net Settlements.

(a) For each Monthly Accounting Period, the Parties will effect a settlement on a net basis (the “Net Settlement”) as contemplated in Annex B hereto.

(b) A report reflecting in detail the Net Settlement determinations contemplated in Annex B shall be prepared not later than thirty (30) calendar days after the end of each Monthly Accounting Period. For as long as required under the Transition Services Agreement, the Company shall prepare and deliver such report to the Reinsurer. After such time, the Reinsurer shall prepare and deliver such report to the Company. If a Net Settlement report reflects a balance due the Company, the amount(s) shown as due shall be paid within ten (10) Business

Days of the delivery of the report. If a Net Settlement report reflects a balance due the Reinsurer, the amount(s) shown as due shall be paid within ten (10) Business Days after the date on which the report was delivered. If there is a delayed settlement of any payment due hereunder, interest will accrue on such payment at the Applicable Rate. For purposes of this section, a payment will be considered overdue on the date which is ten (10) Business Days after the date such payment is due hereunder; provided that such interest will begin to accrue from the original due date with respect to such payment. All settlements of account between the Company and the Reinsurer shall be made in cash or its equivalent.

(c) To the extent that the Reinsurer makes any direct payments to or on behalf of the Company in respect of Reinsured Liabilities or other amounts payable to the Company pursuant to the Net Settlement in respect of a Monthly Accounting Period prior to the Net Settlement process, whether in its capacity as the Administrator or otherwise, the amount of any such payments shall be taken into account for purposes of determining the Net Settlement. In addition, to the extent the Reinsurer receives any Premiums or other amounts payable to the Reinsurer pursuant to the Net Settlement in respect of a Monthly Accounting Period prior to the Net Settlement process, whether in its capacity as the Administrator or otherwise, the amount of any such Premiums received shall be taken into account for purposes of determining the Net Settlement.

(d) In connection with any settlement under this Agreement, the Reinsurer shall not be obligated to pay any Excluded Reinsured Liability.

ARTICLE VII
OPTION LETTERS; ASSUMPTION CERTIFICATES; NOVATION

Section 7.1 Novation. The Reinsurer shall pursue novation of all of the Reinsured Policies other than the Closed Block Policies and any Reinsured Policies that are the subject of litigation or arbitration proceedings (the “Targeted Policies”). The Reinsurer may manage the novation process so as to ensure that the Targeted Policies are novated to the Reinsurer only once the requisite systems are in place in order to reflect the Novated Contracts on the books and records of the Reinsurer in accordance with the migration processes and related time periods contemplated by the Transition Services Agreement.

Section 7.2 Licenses; Regulatory Approvals for Novation.

(a) Following the Effective Date, the Reinsurer shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain all material licenses, permits and authorizations required under Applicable Law to qualify the Reinsurer to transact life insurance business in each state where any Targeted Policies are in force as of the Effective Date.

(b) Following the Effective Date, the Reinsurer shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain all required regulatory approvals, including approval of the requisite form and rate filings, from each applicable Governmental Entity to assume by novation such Targeted Policies (effective as of their inception) including all of the Company’s liabilities and obligations

under each such Targeted Policy, in order to ensure that such liabilities and obligations are solely, directly and exclusively vested in the Reinsurer.

(c) Each Party shall cooperate fully with the other in all reasonable respects in order to effectuate the novation and assumption of the Targeted Policies as set forth in this Article VII. The Reinsurer shall be responsible for and shall pay its own costs, fees and expenses relating to the regulatory filings contemplated under this Section 7.2, and shall reimburse the Company for any reasonable out-of-pocket expenses that it incurs in connection with such filings.

Section 7.3 Option Letter.

(a) Subject to Section 7.3(b), the Reinsurer, at its sole cost and expense, promptly following receipt of the requisite approvals of applicable Governmental Entities, shall transmit by mail to every Required Party as required by the Applicable Law and in accordance with the consent solicitation procedures set forth on Schedule 7.3(a), an option letter (the “Option Letter”), together with a Notice and Certificate of Assumption, including, where required, a form for rejection or acceptance, as permitted by Applicable Law, and a self-addressed return envelope, substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit II (which identifies and includes the forms of Option Letters to be furnished to the various classes of Required Parties), as modified to reflect such changes as may be required by the relevant Governmental Entity following the Effective Date (the “Notice and Certificate of Assumption”). Option Letters and Notices and Certificates of Assumption shall not be sent with respect to a Targeted Policy unless and until all requisite approvals of applicable Governmental Entities have been received with respect to such Targeted Policy.

(b) Subject to the receipt of the requisite regulatory approvals and Applicable Law, the Reinsurer may, at its option, in lieu of transmission of an Option Letter to a Required Party by mail, effect such transmission by electronic mail to an appropriately confirmed electronic mail address for the Required Party, or in the alternative, by any other method allowed under Applicable Law.

(c) The Reinsurer and the Company shall in good faith agree to modify the procedures set forth in this Section 7.3 and in Schedule 7.3(a) on a state-by-state basis to the extent required to conform to any procedures for novation and assumption of Targeted Policies imposed or required by the applicable Governmental Entity or as reasonably requested by the Reinsurer.

(d) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, with respect to the classes of Required Parties described on Schedule 7.3(d), the Option Letter, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, may be accompanied by a form for rejection, and a self-addressed return envelope, substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit III, and the Reinsurer shall not be required to seek affirmative consent from such Required Parties, unless required by Applicable Law.

(e) The Reinsurer shall pay its own costs, fees and expenses relating to soliciting or obtaining the consent of a Required Party to the novation and assumption by the Reinsurer of a Targeted Policy. The Company shall cooperate in any such actions taken by the Reinsurer, and the Reinsurer shall reimburse the Company for its reasonable out-of-pocket costs incurred in connection with such cooperation.

Section 7.4 Novated Contracts. Targeted Policies satisfying all of the requirements for novation and assumption under Section 7.3 and Applicable Law shall be assumed by the Reinsurer on the applicable Assumption Date and shall be deemed to have been assumed by novation. Such contracts shall cease to be deemed “Reinsured Policies,” shall thenceforth not be deemed indemnity coinsured under Article II hereof, and shall be defined herein as “Novated Contracts.” Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that (a) a Required Party rejects or fails to provide any consent required by Applicable Law to the novation of a Reinsured Policy, or (b) a Novated Contract is determined by appropriate Governmental Entities or a court of competent jurisdiction to be not novated from the Company to the Reinsurer (including, but not limited to, jurisdictions requiring the insured’s affirmative consent for novation where the insured or policyholder, as the case may be, either did not or refused to provide such consent), then in the case of either of (a) or (b), such Novated Contract shall for all purposes of this Agreement be deemed, retroactive to the Effective Date, to be a Reinsured Policy and such novation shall be null and void and of no effect. For the avoidance of doubt, the Reinsured Liabilities for each such Novated Contract that is deemed to be a Reinsured Policy in accordance with the foregoing shall be deemed assumed by the Reinsurer retroactive to the Effective Date for all purposes of this Agreement. For each Novated Contract, the date of assumption shall be the later of (i) the date of assumption set forth in the relevant form of Option Letter with respect to the applicable Targeted Policy or (ii) the date on which all required consents and approvals of all Governmental Entities and Required Parties with respect to the applicable Targeted Policy have actually been received and all other requirements and conditions for novation and assumption have been satisfied (the “Assumption Date”). All Targeted Policies not novated by the Reinsurer shall remain Reinsured Policies of the Company.

Section 7.5 Effect of Assumption. Upon the satisfaction of all requirements for the novation and assumption of a Targeted Policy, the Company shall be deemed to have assigned and transferred all of its rights relating to such Novated Contract as of the Assumption Date and the Reinsurer shall be deemed to have assumed and accepted all of the risks, liabilities and obligations (including, without limitation, any Extra Contractual Obligations) under or arising out of the applicable Novated Contract, whether arising prior, on or subsequent to the applicable Assumption Date. The Reinsurer hereby agrees that it shall be directly and solely liable for such risks, liabilities and obligations. On each Assumption Date, the Reinsurer shall assume all risks, liabilities and obligations under or arising out of the applicable Novated Contract such that the Reinsurer shall be considered and deemed the original party in lieu of the Company, from the inception date of the applicable Reinsured Policy. The Novated Contracts shall continue and remain in full force and effect, except as modified by the Notice and Certificate of Assumption. For the avoidance of doubt, a Novated Contract shall not constitute the creation of a new contract or the termination of the applicable Reinsured Policy, rather such Novated Contract shall be considered and deemed a continuation of the existing contract as if the Reinsurer were the original party in lieu of the Company. It is understood and agreed that such assignment, transfer and assumption shall not affect any

indemnification rights of the parties pursuant to Article XII, or any other indemnification or right to recovery provided to a party under any other agreement. Pursuant to the terms of the Custody Agreement, the portion of the assets held in the Custody Account relating to Novated Contracts not in dispute shall be released from the Custody Account and transferred to the Reinsurer. Promptly after assumption by the Reinsurer of any Novated Contracts, the Company shall deliver original books and records that relate to such Novated Contracts to the Reinsurer to the extent required by Applicable Law.

ARTICLE VIII
DAC TAX

Section 8.1 DAC Tax Election. The Company and the Reinsurer hereby elect and agree under Treasury Regulations Section 1.848-2(g)(8) as follows:

(a) The Company and the Reinsurer will each attach a schedule to its federal income tax return for the first taxable year ending after the Effective Date that identifies this Agreement as a reinsurance agreement for which a joint election under Treasury Regulation Section 1.848-2(g)(8) has been made, and will otherwise file its respective federal income tax returns in a manner consistent with the provisions of Treasury Regulation Section 1.848-2 as in effect on the date this Agreement is executed;

(b) For each taxable year under this Agreement, the Party with the net positive consideration, as defined in the regulations promulgated under Section 848 of the Code, will capitalize specified policy acquisition expenses with respect to this Agreement without regard to the general deductions limitation of Section 848(c)(1) of the Code;

(c) The Company and the Reinsurer agree to exchange information pertaining to the amount of net consideration under this Agreement each year to ensure consistency or as otherwise required by the Code and applicable Treasury Regulations;

(d) The first tax year for which this election is effective is 2013;

(e) The Reinsurer will submit to the Company by May 15 each year its calculation of the amount of the net consideration for the preceding calendar year. This schedule of calculations will be accompanied by a statement that the Reinsurer will report such amount of net consideration in its tax return for the preceding calendar year;

(f) The Company may contest such calculation by providing an alternative calculation to the Reinsurer in writing within thirty (30) days of the Company’s receipt of the Reinsurer’s calculation. If the Company does not so notify the Reinsurer, the Company will report the amount of net consideration as determined by the Reinsurer in the Company’s tax return for the previous calendar year;

(g) If the Company contests the Reinsurer’s calculation of the amount of net consideration, the dispute shall be resolved in accordance with Section 11.2.

Both the Company and the Reinsurer are subject to U.S. taxation under Subchapter L of Chapter 1 of the Code.

ARTICLE IX
INSOLVENCY AND CUT THROUGH

Section 9.1 Insolvency. In the event of the insolvency of the Company, all reinsurance made, ceded, renewed or otherwise becoming effective under this Agreement shall be payable by the Reinsurer on the basis of the liability of the Company under the Reinsured Policies without diminution because of the insolvency of the Company directly to the Company or to its liquidator, receiver or statutory successor, except (i) where this Agreement specifically provides for another payee of the reinsurance in the event of the insolvency of the Company or (ii) where the Reinsurer, with the consent of the direct insured, has assumed the policy obligations of the Company as direct obligations of the Reinsurer to the payees under a Reinsured Policy and in substitution for the obligations of the Company to the payees. It is understood, however, that in the event of the insolvency of the Company, the liquidator or receiver or statutory successor of the insolvent Company shall give written notice to the Reinsurer of the pendency of the claim against the Company on any Reinsured Policy within a reasonable time after such claim is filed in the insolvency proceeding, and 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 of defenses which it may deem available to the Company or its liquidator or receiver or statutory successor. The expenses incurred by the Reinsurer shall be chargeable, subject to court approval, against the Company as part of the expense of conservation or liquidation to the extent of a proportionate share of the benefit which may accrue to the Company in conservation or liquidation, solely as a result of the defense undertaken by the Reinsurer.

Section 9.2 Cut Through.

(a) Subject to Applicable Law and the applicable terms of the Reinsured Policies, if the Company becomes insolvent or is subject to any liquidation, rehabilitation, conservatorship, receivership, administrative supervision or any other similar proceeding, the Reinsurer may pay any Reinsured Liabilities otherwise due and payable by the Reinsurer to the Company hereunder directly to the named insureds or their designees under the applicable Reinsured Policies (the “Payee”), in accordance with and subject to the terms, conditions, exclusions and limitations of such Reinsured Policies. Any such payment by the Reinsurer shall discharge the Company from its related payment obligation under the subject Reinsured Policy and shall be treated as a payment by the Company for all purposes of such Reinsured Policy and related documentation and otherwise.

(b) The Reinsurer shall have no obligation to indemnify the Company for amounts paid or payable by the Company in respect of a Reinsured Policy to the extent of any payments made by the Reinsurer to the applicable Payee under such Reinsured Policy in accordance with Section 9.2(a), and the Reinsurer shall be discharged of its payment obligations to the Company, or to its liquidator, receiver, rehabilitator, conservator or other similar Person, under this Agreement to the extent of such payments. The cut-through afforded by Section 9.2(a) shall not be available pursuant to this Agreement if, under Applicable Law, regulation, court

rule or order or similar requirement either: (i) the Reinsurer’s direct payment to such Payee will not, to the extent thereof, discharge the Reinsurer’s obligations to the Company or its legal representative or (ii) the Reinsurer is required by Applicable Law to make any payment to the Company or its liquidator, receiver, rehabilitator, conservator or other similar Person notwithstanding the provisions of this Agreement. Nothing herein or in any Reinsured Policy shall be construed to require the Reinsurer to make duplicative payments or payments duplicative of payments that have been made by the Company.

ARTICLE X
TERMINATION

Section 10.1 Duration of Coinsurance. This Agreement will be effective as of the Effective Time. Subject to the provisions of this Article X, this Agreement will remain in effect, and the reinsurance provided hereunder will remain in force, until termination of the policy or policies on which the reinsurance is based (whether by expiration of the term thereof or by novation thereof by the Reinsurer or one of its Affiliates) in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Except as provided in Sections 10.3, the Reinsured Policies are not eligible for recapture by the Company.

Section 10.2 Termination. This Agreement shall terminate:

(a) at any time upon the mutual written consent of the Parties hereto, which writing shall state the effective date of termination; or

(b) automatically at such time as no liability remains under this Agreement.

Section 10.3 Termination by the Company. The Company, in its sole discretion, shall have the option to terminate this Agreement upon the occurrence of any one of the following events:

(a) the Reinsurer is placed in receivership, conservatorship, rehabilitation or liquidation by any insurance regulatory authority;

(b) the Reinsurer breaches Section 4.1, and the Reinsurer fails to cure such breach within the earlier of (i) thirty (30) days following receipt of written notice of such breach from the Company and (ii) the last day of the calendar year in which such breach occurs; provided that, in the case of clause (ii) only, the Company shall have no right to terminate with a cure period of fewer than thirty (30) days to the extent that the Company continues to receive full credit for the Custody Account in its risk-based capital calculation;

(c) the Reinsurer breaches Section 4.2, and the Reinsurer fails to cure such breach within the earlier of (i) thirty (30) days following receipt of written notice of such breach from the Company and (ii) the last day of the calendar quarter in which such breach occurs; provided that the Company shall have no right to terminate if the Reinsurer cannot take any action reasonably required for the Company to receive statutory reserve credit without the reasonable cooperation of the Company and the Company shall not have reasonably cooperated with the Reinsurer; provided, further, that it shall be deemed unreasonable to require the Company to

cooperate in the event such cooperation would impose on the Company any cost and the Reinsurer has not agreed to be responsible for such cost;

(d) the Reinsurer fails to pay any material amount due to the Company under this Agreement and (i) such amount is not subject to a good faith dispute and (ii) such failure is not cured within ten (10) Business Days following the Reinsurer’s receipt of written notice of such failure from the Company; or

(e) in the event that (i) the Reinsurer’s RBC Ratio is less than 175% or (ii) the Reinsurer fails to provide its RBC Ratio in accordance with Section 4.4 and, upon delivery of written notice from the Company to the Reinsurer, the Reinsurer shall fail to provide its RBC Ratio within ten (10) Business Days following such notice.

Section 10.4 Termination by the Reinsurer. Upon the occurrence of a Reinsurer Termination Event, the Reinsurer shall have the right (but not the obligation) to terminate this Agreement by providing written notice of its intent to terminate. Termination of this Agreement shall be effective on the date specified in such notice, provided that such date shall not be prior to the date on which the Termination Event occurred. Upon termination of this Agreement pursuant to this Section 10.4, the Company shall be deemed to have recaptured and reassumed all Reinsured Liabilities. Recapture of the Reinsured Policies shall be effective on the date specified in the notice of termination.

Section 10.5 Settlement Upon Termination . Upon the termination of this Agreement by the Company pursuant to Section 10.3 or by the Reinsurer pursuant to Section 10.4, subject to payment by the Reinsurer of any amounts due to the Company pursuant to this Section 10.5 and the payment by the Company of any amounts due to the Reinsurer pursuant to this Section 10.5, the Company shall recapture all liabilities previously ceded to the Reinsurer and the Reinsurer’s liability under this Agreement will terminate (provided, that such termination shall not relieve any Party of any pre-termination breach of this Agreement). The Company shall prepare a Net Settlement report for the period commencing on the first day of the then-current calendar month and ending on the date this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Sections 10.3 or 10.4. On the tenth Business Day following the delivery of such Net Settlement report (a) the applicable Party shall pay any amounts due and owing by such Party on such Net Settlement report; (b) the Company shall withdraw any assets in the Funds Withheld Account; (c) the Reinsurer shall transfer to the Company cash and assets with an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to 100% of an amount equal to: (i) the Reinsurer’s Share of the Statutory Reserves held by the Company with respect to the Reinsured Policies (other than the Captive Policies), plus (ii) the Reinsurer’s Share of the Economic Reserves held by the Company with respect to the Captive Policies, plus (iii) the Reinsurer’s Share of the Interest Maintenance Reserve attributable to the Reinsured Liabilities and the Closed Block Policies, plus (iv) (x) the amount of any new Interest Maintenance Reserve created at the time of recapture as a result of such recapture divided by 65% and (y) the amount of any new Interest Maintenance Reserve created at the Effective Time as a direct result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement that remains unamortized as of the date of termination, minus (v) the Reinsurer’s Share of the amount of outstanding policy loans on the Reinsured Policies (to the extent such policy loans constitute admitted assets under SAP, net of any unearned policy loan interest on such loans but

including amounts of interest due and accrued with respect thereto), minus (vi) the Reinsurer’s Share of net due and deferred Premiums on the Reinsured Policies reduced by advances thereon, plus (vii) the Ceding Commission multiplied by the ratio of (x) the remaining number of months in the Amortization Period over (y) 120, minus (viii) the Statutory Book Value of any assets in the Funds Withheld Account (immediately prior to the withdrawal contemplated by clause (b) above), in each case, determined by the Company in accordance with SAP, consistently applied, as of the date of termination (such amount, the “Reinsurer Termination Payment”); and (c) the Company shall pay to the Reinsurer cash equal to the amount of any cash and assets withdrawn by the Company or any successor by operation of law, including any liquidator, rehabilitator, receiver or conservator of the Company, from the Custody Account or the Funds Withheld Account prior to the date of termination, and not used to satisfy claims of policyholders under the Reinsured Policies prior to the date of termination or to otherwise pay amounts due to the Company pursuant to this Agreement (the “Company Termination Payment”). Any dispute by either Party of the Company Termination Payment or the Reinsurer Termination Payment shall be resolved in accordance with Section 11.2.

ARTICLE XI
RESOLUTION OF CERTAIN DISPUTES

Section 11.1 Disputes over Actual Initial Coinsurance Premium Calculations and SPA Adjusted Coinsurance Premium.

(a) Within thirty (30) days following its receipt from the Company of the Initial Coinsurance Premium Reconciliation Statement or the SPA Coinsurance Premium Reconciliation Statement, as applicable, (such period, a “Review Period”), the Reinsurer shall either (i) notify the Company in writing of its agreement with the calculation of the Actual Initial Coinsurance Premium or SPA Adjusted Coinsurance Premium, as applicable, set forth therein (“Notice of Agreement”); or (ii) if the Company determines that the Initial Coinsurance Premium Reconciliation Statement or SPA Coinsurance Premium Reconciliation Statement, as applicable, or the calculations reflected therein either (x) have not been prepared on the basis set forth in Section 2.3 or in Section 5.8 of the Purchase Agreement, or (y) contain or reflect mathematical errors, inform the Company in writing of its objection (the “Reinsurer’s Objection”), which notice shall set forth in reasonable detail a description of the basis of the Reinsurer’s Objection and the adjustments to such Initial Coinsurance Premium Reconciliation Statement or the SPA Coinsurance Premium Reconciliation Statement, as applicable, or the calculations reflected therein that the Reinsurer requests be made. The Company, as applicable, shall, following the Effective Date through the date that the Initial Coinsurance Premium Reconciliation Statement or SPA Coinsurance Premium Reconciliation Statement, as applicable, becomes final in accordance with the last sentence of Section 11.1(c), take all actions necessary or desirable to maintain and preserve all accounting books, records, policies and procedures on which such Initial Coinsurance Premium Reconciliation Statement or SPA Premium Reconciliation Statement, as applicable, are based or on which the finalized Initial Coinsurance Premium Adjustment or SPA Coinsurance Premium Adjustment, as applicable, are to be based so as not to impede or delay the determination of the finalized Actual Initial Coinsurance Premium, the finalized SPA Adjusted Coinsurance Premium, the finalized Fair Market Value of the Reinsurance Assets as of the Effective Date or the preparation of the Reinsurer’s Objection in

the manner and utilizing the methods permitted by this Agreement. Upon receipt by the Company of a Notice of Agreement from the Reinsurer or if no Reinsurer’s Objection is received by the Company prior to the expiration of the Review Period, the Actual Initial Coinsurance Premium, the SPA Adjusted Coinsurance Premium and the Reinsurer’s calculation of the Initial Coinsurance Premium Adjustment (as set forth in the Initial Coinsurance Premium Reconciliation Statement) and the SPA Coinsurance Premium Adjustment (as set forth in the SPA Coinsurance Premium Reconciliation Statement) shall be deemed to have been accepted by the Reinsurer and will become final and binding upon the Parties in accordance with the last sentence of Section 11.1(c).

(b) If the Reinsurer timely delivers a Reinsurer’s Objection to the Company, the Company shall have thirty (30) days from the date of such delivery to review and respond to such Reinsurer’s Objection (the “Consultation Period”). The Parties shall use reasonable, good faith efforts to resolve any disagreements that they may have with respect to the matters set forth in the Reinsurer’s Objection. If the Parties are unable to resolve all of their disagreements with respect to the matters set forth in the Reinsurer’s Objection within ten (10) Business Days following the expiration of the Consultation Period, then the Parties shall submit all matters that remain in dispute with respect to the Reinsurer’s Objection (along with a copy of the Initial Coinsurance Premium Reconciliation Statement, SPA Coinsurance Premium Reconciliation Statement and the Company’s calculation of the amounts set forth therein, marked to indicate those line items that are still in dispute) to an independent internationally recognized accounting firm of independent certified public accountants with appropriate actuarial expertise mutually agreed upon by the Parties (the “CPA Firm”), which shall, acting as an expert and not as an arbitrator, make a final determination, on the basis of the standards set forth in Section 2.3 hereof, and only with respect to any remaining differences submitted to the CPA Firm, in accordance with this Section 11.1(b), of the appropriate amount of each line item in the Initial Coinsurance Premium Reconciliation Statement, SPA Coinsurance Premium Reconciliation Statement and the Company’s calculation of the amounts set forth therein as to which the Parties disagree (such items that remain in dispute, the “Unresolved Items”).

(c) The Parties shall instruct the CPA Firm to deliver its written determination to the Reinsurer and the Company no later than fifteen Business Days after the Unresolved Items are referred to the CPA Firm. The CPA Firm’s determination shall include a certification that it reached such determination in accordance with this Section 11.1(c) and shall be conclusive and binding upon the Parties, absent fraud or clear and manifest error. With respect to each Unresolved Item, the CPA Firm’s determination, if not in accordance with the position of either the Company or the Reinsurer, shall not be more favorable to the Reinsurer than the amounts advocated by the Reinsurer in the Reinsurer’s Objection or more favorable to the Company than the amounts advocated by the Company in the Initial Coinsurance Premium Reconciliation Statement, the SPA Coinsurance Premium Reconciliation Statement or the Company’s calculations of the amounts set forth therein with respect to such disputed line item and/or calculation. For the avoidance of doubt, (i) the CPA Firm’s review of the Initial Coinsurance Premium Reconciliation Statement, the SPA Coinsurance Premium Reconciliation Statement and the Company’s calculation of the amounts set forth therein shall be limited to a determination of whether such documents and calculations were prepared in accordance with Section 2.3, and

(ii) the CPA Firm shall not review any line items or make any determination with respect to any matters other than the Unresolved Items that were referred to the CPA Firm for resolution pursuant to this Section 11.1(c). The determination of the amounts set forth in the Initial Coinsurance Premium Reconciliation Statement or the SPA Coinsurance Premium Reconciliation Statement, as applicable, that are final and binding on the Parties, as determined either through (1) the Reinsurer’s delivery of a Notice of Agreement pursuant to Section 11.1(a), (2) the Reinsurer’s failure to deliver Reinsurer’s Objection prior to expiration of the Review Period pursuant to Section 11.1(a), (3) agreement by the Parties during the Consultation Period or (4) the determination of the CPA Firm pursuant to this Section 11.1(c) are referred to herein as the “finalized Actual Initial Coinsurance Premium,” the “finalized Initial Coinsurance Premium Adjustment,” the “finalized Fair Market Value of the Reinsurance Assets as of the Effective Date,” the “finalized SPA Adjusted Coinsurance Premium,” and the “finalized SPA Coinsurance Premium Adjustment,” as the case may be.

(d) The Parties agree that judgment may be entered upon the CPA Firm’s determination in any court having jurisdiction over the Reinsurer or the Company or their respective assets, as the case may be. The fees and disbursements of the CPA Firm shall be paid by the Parties in proportion to those matters submitted to the CPA Firm that are resolved against that Party, as such fees and disbursements are allocated by the CPA Firm in accordance with this Section 11.1 at the time of the CPA Firm’s determination. At any time following delivery of the Initial Coinsurance Premium Reconciliation Statement or the SPA Coinsurance Premium Reconciliation Statement, as applicable, the Reinsurer shall provide to the Company and its Representatives full access to books and records and other information with respect to the Reinsured Policies, the Net Retained Liabilities and the Ceding Commission, including work papers of its accountants (subject to execution by the Company and/or its Representatives, as applicable, of a customary hold-harmless agreement in form and substance reasonably acceptable to such accountants), and to any employees during regular business hours and on reasonable advance notice, to the extent necessary for the Company to prepare the Initial Coinsurance Premium Reconciliation Statement or the SPA Coinsurance Premium Reconciliation Statement or to prepare materials for presentation to the CPA Firm. The Parties shall make readily available to the CPA Firm, during regular business hours and on reasonable advance notice, interviews with such employees, and all relevant information, books and records and any work papers of their respective accountants (in each case, subject to execution by the CPA Firm of a customary hold-harmless agreement in form and substance reasonably acceptable to such accountants) relating to the Initial Coinsurance Premium Reconciliation Statement, the SPA Coinsurance Premium Reconciliation Statement and any Unresolved Items and all other items reasonably required by the CPA Firm to fulfill its obligations under Section 11.1(c). In acting under this Section 11.2, the CPA Firm will be entitled to the privileges and immunities of an arbitrator.

(e) For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 11.1 shall not apply to any dispute between the Parties with respect to the interpretation of any provision, term or condition of this Agreement.

Section 11.2 Disputes over Calculations. After the Effective Date, any dispute between the Parties with respect to the calculation of amounts that are to be calculated or reported pursuant to this Agreement (other than disputes with respect to the Actual Initial Coinsurance Premium and the SPA Adjusted Initial Coinsurance Premium, which shall be resolved in accordance with Section 11.1 hereof), including disputes with respect to any Net Settlement, calculations relating to DAC tax, valuation of the assets held in the Custody Account or the amount of the Reinsurer Termination Payment or the Company Termination Payment, that cannot be resolved by the Parties within sixty (60) calendar days, shall be referred to an independent accounting firm of national recognized standing (which shall not have any material relationship with the Reinsurer or the Company) mutually agreed to by the Parties; provided, however, that where the dispute involves an actuarial issue, the dispute shall instead be referred to an independent actuarial firm of national recognized standing (which shall not have any material relationship with the Reinsurer or the Company) mutually agreed to by the Parties. Within twenty (20) Business Days following the selection of the accounting firm or actuarial firm, as applicable, the Parties shall submit their positions and supporting documentation to such accounting firm or actuarial firm. Within forty (40) Business Days of such submission, the accounting firm or actuarial firm, as applicable, shall, in light of the evidence provided by both Parties, determine the calculations in dispute within the range of difference between the Reinsurer’s position thereto and the Company’s position thereto. There shall be no appeal from the decision made by such firm, which shall be final and binding (absent fraud or clear and manifest error), except that, either Party may petition a court having jurisdiction over the other Party or its assets to reduce the arbitrator’s decision to judgment. The fees charged by the accounting firm or actuarial firm, as applicable, to resolve the dispute shall be allocated between the Company and the Reinsurer by such firm in accordance with its judgment as to the relative merits of the Parties’ positions in respect of the dispute. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 11.2 shall not apply to any dispute between the Parties with respect to the interpretation of any provision, term or condition of this Agreement.

GENERAL PROVISIONS

Section 15.1 Errors and Omissions. If any delay, omission, error or failure to pay amounts due or to perform any other act required by this Agreement is caused by mistake, misunderstanding or oversight, the Parties will equitably adjust the situation to what it would have been had the mistake, misunderstanding or oversight not occurred, and the reinsurance provided hereunder will not be invalidated. Should it not be possible to adjust the situation, it will be resolved in accordance with dispute resolution procedures mutually selected by the Parties.

Section 15.2 Offset and Recoupment. Any debits or credits incurred on or after the Effective Time in favor of or against either the Company or the Reinsurer with respect to this Agreement are deemed mutual debits or credits and may be set off and recouped, and only the net balance shall be allowed or paid hereunder. In the event of any insolvency, liquidation, rehabilitation, conservatorship, supervision, receivership or comparable proceeding by or against the Company or the Reinsurer, the rights of offset and recoupment set forth in this Section 15.2 shall apply to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law.

Section 15.3 Expenses. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement each Party shall bear its own costs and expenses incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. All transfer, sales, use, value added, excise, stock transfer, documentary, stamp, recording, registration and any similar taxes that become payable as a result of the acquisition by

Section 15.4 Parties to this Agreement. This is an agreement for indemnity reinsurance solely between the Company and the Reinsurer. The performance of the obligations of each Party under this Agreement shall be rendered solely to the other Party. The acceptance of risks under this Agreement shall create no right or legal relationship between the Reinsurer and the insured, owner or beneficiary of any insurance policy or other contract of the Company.

Section 15.5 Authority. Neither the Company nor the Reinsurer shall have any power or authority to act for or on behalf of the other except as expressly granted herein or in the Administrative Services Agreement or Transition Services Agreement, and no other or greater power or authority shall be implied by the grant or denial of power or authority specifically mentioned herein. No employee or agent of either Party shall be considered an employee or agent of the other.

Section 15.6 No Assignment. This Agreement may not be assigned by either of the Parties hereto without the prior written approval of the other Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Reinsurer shall not be prohibited from further transfer of risks accepted hereunder on a retrocession or other basis without the prior approval of the Company; provided that any transfer shall not relieve the Reinsurer of its obligations under this Agreement.

Any notice, approval, request, consent, instruction, or other document to be given hereunder by any Party hereto to the other Party hereto will be delivered by personal delivery, overnight express or facsimile (followed by telephone confirmation with the intended recipient), as follows:

(1) Gross face is as of September 30, 2013 (e.g., if retained business is ceded to the Company 10 years after the Signing Date, the cede adjustment is applied to the face of that business as of September 30, 2013, not September 30, 2023)

For illustrative purposes only, based on the table above, if $500 million gross insurance in-force of whole life risk is retained by the Company until one year after the Signing Date, the Ceding Commission would increase by $0.8 million (the difference in value between the Signing Date and the one year anniversary of the Signing Date for the “whole life” line of business in the table above).

If the calculation of the adjustment based on the table above results in an increase in the Ceding Commission for the relevant month, the amount of such increase shall be reflected as a payable from the Reinsurer to the Company in the applicable Net Settlement. If, instead, such calculation results in a decrease in the Ceding Commission for the relevant month, the amount of such decrease shall be reflected as a payable from the Company to the Reinsurer in the applicable Net ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇.
