(c) Contracts of reinsurance between insurers.

(d) An arrangement, schedule of charges, agreement or contract, express or implied, for the adjustment of claims under which the compensation for the services of the person making the adjustment (exclusive of reimbursement for actual expenses) consistently increases, in reasonable brackets, as the amount paid in settlement of a claim increases.
