The individual risk must be underwritten by the Ceding Company in accordance with its standard underwriting practices and guidelines. A copy of the Ceding Company’s current underwriting guidelines is attached as Schedule G – Underwriting Guidelines. Risks falling into any other special reinsurance or underwriting programs such as Facultative Shopping or Automatic Reinsurance Cession (ARC) will be excluded from this Agreement.

The mortality rating on each individual risk must not exceed 500% (Table 16 or P), or its equivalent on a flat extra premium basis.

The Reinsurer shall give immediate consideration to a facultative application and notify the Ceding Company as soon as possible in writing (via mail, fax, or e-mail) of its underwriting offers.

The Reinsurer shall have no liability on a facultative submission by the Ceding Company until an offer to reinsure has been made by the Reinsurer and accepted in writing (via mail, fax, or e-mail) by the Ceding Company. The Reinsurer’s offer shall expire at the end of from the date of the Reinsurer’s offer unless an earlier date is specified in the offer, or the date specified in the Reinsurer’s approval to extend their offer, or the date the Reinsurer receives notice from the Ceding Company of the withdrawal of their application, whichever comes first.

Article IV

Premiums, Payments and Reports

Reinsurance premiums shall be paid annually in advance on a policy year basis for each reinsured policy. Such payment for policies with anniversaries in any calendar month shall accompany the monthly statement as provided in this Article. Premiums shall be calculated by applying the premium rates per thousand to the net amount at risk as described in Article III – Basis of Reinsurance. The premium rates per thousand are those specified in Schedule E – Reinsurance Premium Rates. The rates in Schedule E – Reinsurance Premium Rates, shall apply to both automatic and facultative reinsurance.

At the end of each reporting period the Ceding Company shall prepare and send to the Reinsurer a statement, in substantial accord with Schedule F – Reinsurance Reports, reporting reinsurance premiums due on each new risk and for renewals of policies whose anniversary date falls within the reporting period. Any premium adjustments and refunds due because of terminations, reinstatements, reissues and other changes during the reporting period shall also be listed. The reporting period is stated in Schedule F – Reinsurance Reports. New reinsurance shall be reported on the report next following the time that the reinsured policy has been reported as delivered and paid for.

The statement shall be furnished to the Reinsurer within after the end of each reporting period and shall be accompanied by payment of any net amount due the Reinsurer as shown on the statement. If any reinsurance premium is not paid within the allotted time, the Reinsurer has the right to terminate its liability on the reinsurance risks on the statement by giving written notice to the Ceding Company. At the close of the period following the notice, the Reinsurer’s liability shall terminate for the aforementioned risks. Regardless of these terminations, the Ceding Company shall be liable to the Reinsurer for all unpaid reinsurance premiums earned by them.

Terminated risks may be reinstated within after the effective date of termination by paying in full all of the unpaid reinsurance premiums for the risks inforce prior to the termination. The Reinsurer shall not be liable for any claim incurred between the date of termination and reinstatement.

Article IX

Policy Changes

A.	The Ceding Company shall notify the Reinsurer of all policy terminations and changes that affect the reinsurance. Unearned reinsurance premiums on such terminations or changes shall be refunded.

B.	If any portion of the Ceding Company’s insurance risk is terminated, the reinsurance shall be reduced by a proportionate amount. If there are other reinsurers, each one shall share in the reduction according to its proportion of the total reinsurance.

C.	If a policy reinsured under this Agreement lapses to extended term or paid-up insurance, the Reinsurer shall share in an adjustment in the amount of reinsurance on the policy in the same proportion as the reinsurance amount had to the insurance amount immediately prior to the policy lapsing.

If a portion of the insurance issued by the Ceding Company on a life reinsured hereunder is terminated, reinsurance on that life hereunder shall be reduced so as to restore, as far as possible, the retention level of the reinsured on the risk, provided, however, that the reinsured shall not assume on any policy being adjusted as provided in this Article an amount of insurance in excess of the greater of (1) its retention limit at the time of issue of that policy, and (2) the retention limit of that policy as already adjusted by the provisions of Article X – Increase in Retention. The reduction in reinsurance shall first be applied to the reinsurance, if any, of the specific policy under which insurance terminated. The reinsurance of the Reinsurer shall be reduced by an amount which is in the same proportion of the amount of reduction so applied as the reinsurance of the Reinsurer bore to the total reinsurance of the policy. The balance, if any, of the reduction shall be applied to reinsurance of other policies on the life, the further reduction, if any, in the reinsurance of the Reinsurer again being determined on a proportional basis and shall be applied to policies in chronological order according to original policy dates.

E.	Reinsurance shall be terminated on any policy where the net amount at risk reinsured is less than $1, rounded to the nearest dollar.

Reinsurance shall be reinstated automatically if the original insurance is reinstated according to the policy provisions and rules of the Ceding Company. The Ceding Company shall pay all back reinsurance premiums to the Reinsurer in the same manner as it received reinsurance premiums under the reinstated policy.

Article IX

Policy Changes

(continued)

G.	Unearned reinsurance premiums on terminations or changes shall be refunded to the Ceding Company. The premium payable to the Reinsurer or premium refunds due to the Ceding Company shall be based on the exact number of days of effective insurance coverage upon termination or other change.

If the policy continues inforce without payment of premium during any days of grace pending its surrender, whether such continuance be as a result of a policy provision or a practice of the Ceding Company, the reinsurance will also continue without payment of premium and will terminate on the same date as the Ceding Company’s risk terminates.

[page break]

Article X

Increase in Retention

The Ceding Company may increase its limit of retention and may elect, subject to the provisions of this Article, to continue the reinsurance inforce under this Agreement without change, or to reduce all eligible reinsurance inforce under this Agreement as set forth below. The increased limit of retention shall be effective with respect to reinsurance which is placed in effect on or after the effective date of the increase subsequent to the Ceding Company providing written notice to the Reinsurer of such increase and of its election to either continue or reduce reinsurance on inforce business.

No business will be eligible for reduction under this Article unless the Ceding Company kept its maximum retention as set forth in the retention schedule in effect at the time the insurance was issued. The amounts recaptured shall be sufficient to increase the Ceding Company’s retention to the new limits. If there are other reinsurers, the reduction on each risk shall be divided according to each reinsurer’s portion of the total reinsurance on the risk. If the reinsurance is reduced on any risk, similar reductions shall be made on all risks eligible for recapture. The effective date of the reduction in reinsurance on a policy eligible for such reduction shall be the latter of the first policy anniversary following the notice to recapture and the .

The retention limits of the Ceding Company as of the effective date of this Agreement are shown in Schedule I – Retention Limits.

B.	The termination shall become effective on the date specified in the written notice, but not less than after written notice is given.

C.	The Ceding Company shall continue to submit, and the Reinsurer shall continue to accept business under the provisions of this Agreement, during the period between the date of written notice and the effective date of termination.

D.	The provisions of this Agreement shall continue to apply after the effective date of termination to all reinsurance that is inforce under this Agreement on the effective date of termination.

E.	Either party may terminate this Agreement immediately for the acceptance of new reinsurance if the other party materially breaches this Agreement.

Article XII

Claims

A.	If there is a claim for benefits on a reinsured risk, hereunder, the Ceding Company will send to the Reinsurer copies of the proofs of claim, and any other information the Ceding Company may possess pertinent to the claim that the Reinsurer may request.

The Reinsurer upon receipt of the claim papers shall make payment in settlement of the reinsurance under a claim approved and paid by the Ceding Company for a reinsured risk hereunder. The settlement made by the Ceding Company shall be unconditionally binding upon the Reinsurer whether or not the claim payment is made under the strict policy conditions or compromised for a lesser amount.

If a claim is contestable and any reinsurer’s share is greater than $500,000, the Reinsurer shall be consulted before admission or acknowledgement of the liability is made by the Ceding Company. However, such consultation shall not impair the Ceding Company’s freedom to determine the proper action on the claim and the settlement made by the Ceding Company shall still be unconditionally binding on the Reinsurer except that the Reinsurer may decline to be party to the contest, compromise, or litigation involved on a claim, in which case it shall pay the full amount of its share of the claim to the Ceding Company. In such case, the Reinsurer shall not share in any expense involved in such contest, compromise, or litigation, nor in any reduction in claim resulting therefrom.

The Reinsurer shall share in the expense of any contest or compromise of a claim in the same proportion that the net amount at risk reinsured with the Reinsurer bears to the total net amount at risk of the Ceding Company under all policies on that life being contested or compromised by the Ceding Company and shall share in the total amount of any reduction in liability in the same proportion. Routine expenses incurred in the normal settlement of uncontested claim, compensation of salaried officers and employees of the Ceding Company and any possible extra-contractual damages shall not be considered claim expenses.

Article XII

Claims

(continued)

In the event of an increase or reduction in the amount of the Ceding Company’s insurance on any policy reinsured hereunder because of a misstatement of age or sex being established after the death of the insured, the Ceding Company and the Reinsurer shall share in such increase or reduction in proportion to their respective amounts at risk under such policy.

The Reinsurer shall reimburse the Ceding Company for its proportionate share of any interest paid on claims by the Ceding Company for the period preceding the Reinsurer’s payment of its share of the claim. Interest shall be calculated from the date of death to the date of remittance to the beneficiary, or if the claim proceeds go under settlement option, from the date of death to the date of the Reinsurer’s remittance to the Ceding Company. Adjustment to reinsurance premiums in such case will be made without interest.

On claims paid by the Reinsurer if the period of time between when the Ceding Company pays the claim and the Reinsurer reimburses the Ceding Company exceeds the Ceding Company reserves the right to charge interest from the day the Ceding Company paid the claim to the day the Reinsurer reimburses the Ceding Company.

In the event of insolvency of the Ceding Company, the liquidator, receiver or statutory successor shall give the Reinsurer written notice of any pending claim and the Reinsurer may, at its own expense, investigate the claim and interpose any defense which it deems available to the Ceding Company or its liquidator, receiver or statutory successor. If the Ceding Company benefits from the defense undertaken by the Reinsurer, an equitable share of the expenses incurred by the Reinsurer shall be chargeable to the Ceding Company as a part of the expense of liquidation.

C.	. For the purpose of this Agreement, the Reinsurer shall be considered insolvent when it:

Applies for or consents to the appointment of a receiver, trustee, or liquidator of its properties or assets; or

Makes an assignment for the benefit of its creditors; or

Is adjudicated as bankrupt or insolvent; or
