Article XVII - Errors and Omissions

Inadvertent delays, errors or omissions made in connection with this Contract or any transaction hereunder shall not relieve either party from any liability which would have attached had such delay, error or omission not occurred, provided, however, that such error or omission is rectified as soon as possible after discovery.

Article XVIII - Currency (BRMA 12A)

Whenever the word “Dollars” or the “$” sign appears in this Contract, they shall be construed to mean United States Dollars and all transactions under this Contract shall be denominated in United States Dollars.

Article XIX - Insolvency (BRMA 19C)

A.     In the event of the insolvency of the Company, this reinsurance shall be payable directly to the Company, or to its liquidator, receiver, conservator or statutory successor on the basis of the liability of the Company without diminution because of the insolvency of the Company or because the liquidator, receiver, conservator or statutory successor of the Company has failed to pay all or a portion of any claim.  It is agreed, however, that the liquidator, receiver, conservator or statutory successor of the Company shall give written notice to the Reinsurer of the pendency of a claim against the Company indicating the policy insured which claim would involve a possible liability on the part of the Reinsurer within a reasonable time after such claim is filed in the conservation or liquidation proceeding or in the receivership, and that during the pendency of such claim, the Reinsurer may investigate such claim and interpose, at its own expense, in the proceeding where such claim is to be adjudicated, any defense or defenses that it may deem available to the Company or its liquidator, receiver, conservator or statutory successor.  The expense thus incurred by the Reinsurer shall be chargeable, subject to the approval of the court, against the Company as part of the expense of conservation or liquidation to the extent of a pro rata share of the benefit which may accrue to the Company solely as a result of the defense undertaken by the Reinsurer.

B.      Where two or more reinsurers are involved in the same claim and a majority in interest elect to interpose defense to such claim, the expense shall be apportioned in accordance with the terms of this Contract as though such expense had been incurred by the insolvent Company.

Article XX - Arbitration

A.     As a condition precedent to any right of action hereunder, in the event of any dispute or difference of opinion hereafter arising with respect to this Contract, it is hereby mutually agreed that such dispute or difference of opinion shall be submitted to arbitration. One Arbiter shall be chosen by the Company, the other by the Reinsurer, and an Umpire shall be chosen by the two Arbiters before they enter upon arbitration, all of whom shall be active or retired disinterested executive officers of insurance or reinsurance companies or Lloyd’s London Underwriters.  In the event that either party should fail to choose an Arbiter within

6

30 days following a written request by the other party to do so, the requesting party may choose two Arbiters who shall in turn choose an Umpire before entering upon arbitration.  If the two Arbiters fail to agree upon the selection of an Umpire within 30 days following their appointment, either party may request a justice of a court of general jurisdiction of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, Bermuda, to appoint the Umpire.

B.      Each party shall present its case to the Arbiters within 30 days following the date of appointment of the Umpire.  The Arbiters shall consider this Contract as an honorable engagement rather than merely as a legal obligation and they are relieved of all judicial formalities and may abstain from following the strict rules of law.  The decision of the Arbiters shall be final and binding on both parties; but failing to agree, they shall call in the Umpire and the decision of the majority shall be final and binding upon both parties.  Judgment on the award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction.

C.      Each party shall bear the expense of its own Arbiter, and shall jointly and equally bear with the other the expense of the Umpire and of the arbitration.  In the event that the two Arbiters are chosen by one party, as above provided, the expense of the Arbiters, the Umpire and the arbitration shall be equally divided between the two parties.

D.      Any arbitration proceedings shall take place in Hamilton, Bermuda; all proceedings pursuant hereto shall be governed by the law of Bermuda.

Article XXI - Governing Law

This Contract shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Bermuda.

For the avoidance of doubt, with respect to any obligations of the Reinsurer to the Company under the terms of this Contract, the Company shall, in accordance with the Segregated Accounts Companies Act 2000 (as amended), have recourse only to the assets of High Layer Cell, and not the assets of any other segregated account or the general account of Mont Fort Re Ltd.

Article XXII - Service of Suit

It is agreed that in the event the Reinsurer fails to pay any amount claimed to be due hereunder, the Reinsurer, at the request of the Company, will submit to the jurisdiction of a court of competent jurisdiction within Bermuda.  Nothing in this Article constitutes or should be understood to constitute a waiver of the Reinsurer’s rights to commence an action in any court of competent jurisdiction in Bermuda, to remove an action to a Bermuda Court, or to seek a transfer of a case to another court as permitted by the laws of Bermuda.
