      expiration of this Contract, provided that no part of such loss occurrence

V - Retention and Limit

     

    
      	
              A.

            	
              As
      respects each excess layer of reinsurance coverage provided by this
      Contract, the Company shall retain and be liable for the first amount of
      ultimate net loss, shown as “Company’s Retention” for each excess layer in
      Schedule A attached hereto, arising out of each loss
      occurrence.  The Reinsurer shall then be liable, as respects
      each excess layer, for the amount by which such ultimate net loss exceeds
      the Company’s retention, but the liability of the Reinsurer under each
      excess layer shall not exceed the amount, shown as “Reinsurer’s Per
      Occurrence Limit” for that excess layer in Schedule A attached hereto, as
      respects any one loss occurrence.

      the provisions above, no claim shall be made hereunder as respects losses
      arising out of loss occurrences commencing during the term of this
      Contract unless at least two risks insured or reinsured by the Company are
      involved in such loss occurrence.  For purposes hereof, the
      Company shall be the sole judge of what constitutes “one
      risk.”

mandatory layer of coverage, any Temporary Increase in Coverage Limits (“TICL”)
coverage and any additional underlying limit provided by the FHCF to Limited
Apportionment Companies, all of which are purchased by the Company, shall be
deemed to inure to the benefit of this Contract.  Further, any FHCF
loss reimbursement shall be deemed to be paid to the Company in accordance with
the FHCF reimbursement contract at the full payout level set forth therein and
will be deemed not to be reduced by any reduction or exhaustion of the FHCF’s
claims-paying capacity as respects the mandatory FHCF coverage, the Company’s
elected coverage under TICL, and the coverage provided by the FHCF to Limited

              A.

            	
              In
      the event all or any portion of the reinsurance under any excess layer of
      reinsurance coverage provided by this Contract is exhausted by loss, the
      amount so exhausted shall be reinstated immediately from the time the loss
      commences hereon.

            


    

     

    
      	
               
      

            	
              1.

            	
              As
      respects the First Excess Layer, for each amount so reinstated the Company
      shall pay no additional premium.

            


    

     

    
      	
               
      

            	
              2.

            	
              As
      respects the Second, Third, Fourth and Fifth Excess Layers, for each
      amount so reinstated the Company agrees to pay additional premium equal to
      the product of the following:

            


    

     

    
      	
            	
              a.

            	
              The
      percentage of the occurrence limit for the excess layer reinstated (based
      on the loss paid by the Reinsurer under that excess layer);
      times

            


    

     

    
      	
            	
              b.

            	
              The
      earned reinsurance premium for the excess layer reinstated for the term of
      this Contract (exclusive of reinstatement
  premium).

              B.

            	
              Whenever
      the Company requests payment by the Reinsurer of any loss under the
      Second, Third, Fourth or Fifth Excess Layer, the Company shall submit a
      statement to the Reinsurer of reinstatement premium due the Reinsurer for
      that excess layer.  If the earned  reinsurance premium
      for the Second, Third, Fourth or Fifth Excess Layer for the term of this
      Contract has not been finally determined as of the date of any such
      statement, the calculation of reinstatement premium due for that excess
      layer shall be based on the amount, shown as “Annual Deposit Premium” for
      that excess layer in Schedule A attached hereto, and shall be readjusted
      when the earned reinsurance premium for that excess layer for the term of
      this Contract has been finally determined.  Any reinstatement
      premium shown to be due the Reinsurer for the Second, Third, Fourth or
      Fifth Excess Layer as reflected by any such statement (less prior
      payments, if any, for that excess layer) shall be payable by the Company
      concurrently with payment by the Reinsurer of the requested loss for that
      excess layer.  Any return reinstatement premium shown to be due
      the Company shall be remitted by the Reinsurer as promptly as possible
      after receipt and verification of the Company’s
  statement.

      anything stated herein, the liability of the Reinsurer under any excess
      layer of reinsurance coverage provided by this Contract shall not exceed
      either of the following:

            


    

     

    
      	
               
      

            	
              1.

            	
              The
      amount, shown as “Reinsurer’s Per Occurrence Limit” for that excess layer
      in Schedule A attached hereto, as respects loss or losses arising out of
      any one loss occurrence; or

            


    

     

    
      	
               
      

            	
              2.

      amount, shown as “Reinsurer’s Term Limit” for that excess layer in
      Schedule A attached hereto, in all during the term of this
      Contract.

      expense, as hereinafter defined) paid or payable by the Company in
      settlement of claims and in satisfaction of judgments rendered on account
      of such claims, after deduction of all salvage, all recoveries and all
      claims on inuring insurance or reinsurance, whether collectible or
      not.  Nothing herein shall be construed to mean that losses
      under this Contract are not recoverable until the Company’s ultimate net

      in excess of policy limits” shall mean 80.0% of any amount paid or payable
      by the Company in excess of its policy limits, but otherwise within the
      terms of its policy, such loss in excess of the Company’s policy limits
      having been incurred because of, but not limited to, failure by the
      Company to settle within the policy limits or by reason of the Company’s
      alleged or actual negligence, fraud or bad faith in rejecting an offer of
      settlement or in the preparation of the defense or in the trial of an
      action against its insured or reinsured or in the preparation or

              “Extra
      contractual obligations” shall mean 80.0% of any punitive, exemplary,
      compensatory or consequential damages paid or payable by the Company, not
      covered by any other provision of this Contract and which arise from the
      handling of any claim on business subject to this Contract, such
      liabilities arising because of, but  not limited to, failure by
      the Company to settle within the policy limits or by reason of the
      Company’s alleged or actual negligence, fraud or bad faith in rejecting an
      offer of settlement or in the preparation of the defense or in the trial
      of an action against its insured or reinsured or in the preparation or
      prosecution of an appeal consequent upon such an action.  An
      extra contractual obligation shall be deemed, in all circumstances, to
      have occurred on the same date as the loss covered or alleged to be
      covered under the policy.

            


    

     

    Notwithstanding
anything stated herein, this Contract shall not apply to any loss in excess of
policy limits or any extra contractual obligation incurred by the Company as a
result of any fraudulent and/or criminal act by any officer or director of the
Company acting individually or collectively or in collusion with any individual
or corporation or any other organization or party involved in the presentation,
defense or settlement of any claim covered hereunder.

     

    Further,
any loss in excess of policy limits or extra contractual obligations that are
made in connection with this Contract shall not exceed 25.0% of the Company’s
actual catastrophe loss.

              “Loss
      adjustment expense” as used herein shall mean expenses assignable to the
      investigation, appraisal, adjustment, settlement, litigation, defense
      and/or appeal of specific claims, regardless of how such expenses are
      classified for statutory reporting purposes.  Loss adjustment
      expense shall include, but not be limited to interest on judgments,
      expenses of outside adjusters and declaratory judgment expenses or other
      legal expenses and costs incurred in connection with coverage questions
      and legal actions connected thereto, but shall not include office expenses

X - Loss Occurrence

     

    
      	
              A.

            	
              The
      term “loss occurrence” shall mean the sum of all individual losses
      directly occasioned by any one disaster, accident or loss or series of
      disasters, accidents or losses arising out of one event which occurs
      within the area of one state of the United States or province of Canada
      and states or provinces contiguous thereto and to one
      another.  However, the duration and extent of any one “loss
      occurrence” shall be limited to all individual losses sustained by the
      Company occurring during any period of 168 consecutive hours arising out
      of and directly occasioned by the same event, except that the term “loss
      occurrence” shall be further defined as
follows:

            


    

     

    
      	
               
      

            	
              1.

            	
              As
      regards windstorm, hail, tornado, hurricane, cyclone, including ensuing
      collapse and water damage, all individual losses sustained by the Company
      occurring during any period of 96 consecutive hours arising out of and
      directly occasioned by the same event.  However, the event need
      not be limited to one state or province or states or provinces contiguous
      thereto.

            


    

     

    
      	
               
      

            	
              2.

            	
              As
      regards riot, riot attending a strike, civil commotion, vandalism and
      malicious mischief, all individual losses sustained by the Company
      occurring during any period of 72 consecutive hours within the area of one
      municipality or county and the municipalities or counties contiguous
      thereto arising out of and directly occasioned by  the same
      event.  The maximum duration of 72 consecutive hours may be
      extended in respect of individual losses which occur beyond such 72
      consecutive hours during the continued occupation of an assured’s premises
      by strikers, provided such occupation commenced during the aforesaid
      period.

              3.

            	
              As
      regards earthquake (the epicenter of which need not necessarily be within
      the territorial confines referred to in the introductory portion of this
      paragraph A) and fire following directly occasioned by the earthquake,
      only those individual fire losses which commence during the period of 168
      consecutive hours may be included in the Company’s “loss
      occurrence.”

            


    

     

    
      	
               
      

            	
              4.

            	
              As
      regards “freeze,” only individual losses directly occasioned by collapse,
      breakage of glass and water damage (caused by bursting frozen pipes and
      tanks) may be included in the Company’s “loss
  occurrence.”

            


    

     

    
      	
               
      

            	
              5.

            	
              As
      regards conflagration, brush fires and any other fires, irrespective of
      origin (except as provided in subparagraphs 2 and 3 above), which spread
      through trees, grassland or other vegetation, all individual losses
      sustained by the Company which occur during any period of 168 consecutive
      hours within a 150-mile radius of the location where the fire originated
      may be included in the Company’s “loss
  occurrence.”

            


    

     

    
      	
              B.

            	
              Except
      for those “loss occurrences” referred to in subparagraph 2 of paragraph A
      above, the Company may choose the date and time when any such period of
      consecutive hours commences, provided that it is not earlier than the date
      and time of the occurrence of the first recorded individual loss sustained
      by the Company arising out of that disaster, accident or loss, and
      provided that only one such period of 168 consecutive hours shall apply
      with respect to one event, except for any “loss occurrence” referred to in
      subparagraph 1 of paragraph A above where only one such period of 96
      consecutive hours shall apply with respect to one event, regardless of the
      duration of the event.

            


    

     

    
      	
              C.

            	
              However,
      as respects those “loss occurrences” referred to in subparagraph 2 of
      paragraph A above, if the disaster, accident or loss occasioned by the
      event is of greater duration than 72 consecutive hours, then the Company
      may divide that disaster, accident or loss into two or more “loss
      occurrences,” provided that no two periods overlap and no individual loss
      is included in more than one such period, and provided that no period
      commences earlier than the date and time of the occurrence of the first
      recorded individual loss sustained by the Company arising out of that
      disaster, accident or loss.

            


    

     

    
      	
              D.

            	
              No
      individual losses occasioned by an event that would be covered by a 96 or
      72 hours clause may be included in any “loss occurrence” claimed under a
      168 hours provision.

XI - Loss Notices and Settlements

     

    
      	
              A.

            	
              Whenever
      losses sustained by the Company are reserved by the Company for an amount
      greater than 50.0% of the Company’s retention under any excess layer
      hereunder and/or appear likely to result in a claim under such excess
      layer, the Company shall notify the Subscribing Reinsurers under that
      excess layer and shall provide updates related to development of such
      losses.  The Reinsurer shall have the right to participate in
      the adjustment of such losses at its own
  expense.

              All
      loss settlements made by the Company, provided they are within the terms
      of this Contract and the terms of the original policy (with the exception
      of loss in excess of policy limits or extra contractual obligations
      coverage, if any, under this Contract), shall be binding upon the
      Reinsurer, and the Reinsurer agrees to pay all amounts for which it may be
      liable upon receipt of reasonable evidence of the amount paid by the
      Company.

            


    

     

    Article
XII - Salvage and Subrogation

     

    The
Reinsurer shall be credited with salvage (i.e., reimbursement obtained or
recovery made by the Company, less the actual cost, excluding salaries of
officials and employees of the Company and sums paid to attorneys as retainer,
of obtaining such reimbursement or making such recovery) on account of claims
and settlements involving reinsurance hereunder.  Salvage thereon
shall always be used to reimburse the excess carriers in the reverse order of
their priority according to their participation before being used in any way to
reimburse the Company for its primary loss.  The Company hereby agrees
to enforce its rights to salvage or subrogation relating to any loss, a part of
which loss was sustained by the Reinsurer, and to prosecute all claims arising
out of such rights, if, in the Company’s opinion, it is economically reasonable
to do so.

XIII - Reinsurance Premium

     

    
      	
              A.

            	
              As
      premium for each excess layer of reinsurance coverage provided by this
      Contract, the Company shall pay the Reinsurer premium determined by
      multiplying the amount, shown as “Annual Deposit Premium” in Schedule A
      attached hereto, by the fraction calculated by dividing the Company’s
      Probable Maximum Loss (“PML”) determined as of September 30, 2009, by the
      amount, shown as “Original PML” in Schedule A attached hereto, subject to
      a minimum premium of the amount, shown as “Minimum Premium” in Schedule A
      attached hereto.  In the event this Contract is terminated in
      accordance with the provisions of paragraph C of the Commencement and
      Termination Article, the applicable amount determined in accordance with
      this paragraph shall be prorated.

            


    

     

    The
Company’s PML for each excess layer shall be calculated using AIR Version 10.0
catastrophe modeling software, incorporating long-term perspective but no loss
amplification or storm surge, and shall correspond to the amount, shown as
“Return Time” for that excess layer in Schedule A attached hereto.

     

    
      	
              B.

            	
              The
      Company shall pay the Reinsurer an annual deposit premium for each excess
      layer of the amount, shown as “Annual Deposit Premium” for that excess
      layer in Schedule A attached hereto, in four equal installments of the
      amount, shown as “Deposit Premium Installment” for that excess layer in
      Schedule A attached hereto, on July 1 and October 1 of 2009, and on
      January 1 and April 1 of 2010.  However, in the event this
      Contract is terminated, there shall be no deposit premium installments due
      after the effective date of
termination.

            


    

     

    
      	
              C.

            	
              On
      or before June 30, 2010, the Company shall provide a report to the
      Reinsurer setting forth the premium due hereunder for each excess layer
      for the term of this Contract, computed in accordance with paragraph A
      above, and any additional premium due the Reinsurer or return premium due
      the Company for each such excess layer shall be remitted
      promptly.

      the event any premium, loss or other payment due either party is not
      received by the intermediary named in the Intermediary Article
      (hereinafter referred to as the “Intermediary”) by the payment due date,
      the party to whom payment is due may, by notifying the Intermediary in
      writing, require the debtor party to pay, and the debtor party agrees to
      pay, an interest penalty on the amount past due calculated for each such
      payment on the last business day of each month as
  follows:

plus interest penalties have been received by the Intermediary.

     

    
      	
              C.

            	
              The
      establishment of the due date shall, for purposes of this Article, be
      determined as follows:

              As
      respects the payment of routine deposits and premiums due the Reinsurer,
      the due date shall be as provided for in the applicable section of this
      Contract.  In the event a due date is not specifically stated
      for a given payment, it shall be deemed due 30 days after the date of
      transmittal by the Intermediary of the initial billing for each such
      payment.

            


    

     

    
      	
               
      

            	
              2.

            	
              Any
      claim or loss payment due the Company hereunder shall be deemed due 10
      days after the proof of loss or demand for payment is transmitted to the
      Reinsurer.  If such loss or claim payment is not received within
      the 10 days, interest will accrue on the payment or amount overdue in
      accordance with paragraph B above, from the date the proof of loss or
      demand for payment was transmitted to the
  Reinsurer.

      respects any payment, adjustment or return due either party not otherwise
      provided for in subparagraphs 1 and 2 of this paragraph C, the due date
      shall be as provided for in the applicable section of this
      Contract.  In the event a due date is not specifically stated
      for a given payment, it shall be deemed due 10 days following transmittal

              Nothing
      herein shall be construed as limiting or prohibiting a Subscribing
      Reinsurer from contesting the validity of any claim, or from participating
      in the defense of any claim or suit, or prohibiting either party from
      contesting the validity of any payment or from initiating any arbitration
      or other proceeding in accordance with the provisions of this
      Contract.  If the debtor party prevails in an arbitration or
      other proceeding, then any interest penalties due hereunder on the amount
      in dispute shall be null and void.  If the debtor party loses in
      such proceeding, then the interest penalty on the amount determined to be
      due hereunder shall be calculated in accordance with the provisions set
      forth above unless otherwise determined by such proceedings.  If
      a debtor party advances payment of any amount it is contesting, and proves
      to be correct in its contestation, either in whole or in part, the other

              This
      Contract applies only to that portion of any policy which the Company
      retains net for its own account (prior to deduction of any underlying
      reinsurance specifically permitted in this Contract), and in calculating
      the amount of any loss hereunder and also in computing the amount or
      amounts in excess of which this Contract attaches, only loss or losses in
      respect of that portion of any policy which the Company retains net for
      its own account shall be included.

              The
      amount of the Reinsurer’s liability hereunder in respect of any loss or
      losses shall not be increased by reason of the inability of the Company to
      collect from any other reinsurer(s), whether specific or general, any
      amounts which may have become due from such reinsurer(s), whether such
      inability arises from the insolvency of such other reinsurer(s) or
      otherwise.

              B.

            	
              With
      regard to funding in whole or in part by letters of credit, it is agreed
      that each letter of credit will be in a form acceptable to insurance
      regulatory authorities involved, will be issued for a term of at least one
      year and will include an “evergreen clause,” which automatically extends
      the term for at least one additional year at each expiration date unless
      written notice of non-renewal is given to the Company not less than 30
      days prior to said expiration date.  The Company and the
      Reinsurer further agree, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
      Contract, that said letters of credit may be drawn upon by the Company or
      its successors in interest at any time, without diminution because of the
      insolvency of the Company or the Reinsurer, but only for one or more of
      the following purposes:

      reserves plus any reasonable amount estimated to be unreported from known
      loss occurrences) funded by means of a letter of credit which is under
      non-renewal notice, if said letter of credit has not been renewed or
      replaced by the Reinsurer 10 days prior to its expiration
      date;

    In the
event the amount drawn by the Company on any letter of credit is in excess of
the actual amount required for B(1), B(2) or B(4), or in the case of B(3), the

XXIV - Insolvency

     

    
      	
              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 or bond reinsured 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
Company.

            


    

     

    
      	
              C.

            	
              It
      is further understood and agreed that, in the event of the insolvency of
      the Company, the reinsurance under this Contract shall be payable directly
      by the Reinsurer to the Company or to its liquidator, receiver or
      statutory successor, except as provided by Section 4118(a) of the New York
      Insurance Law or except (1) where this Contract specifically provides
      another payee of such reinsurance in the event of the insolvency of the
      Company or (2) where the Reinsurer with the consent of the direct insured
      or insureds has assumed such policy  obligations of the Company
      as direct obligations of the Reinsurer to the payees under such policies
      and in substitution for the obligations of the Company to such
      payees.

XXV - Arbitration (BRMA 6J)

     

    
      	
              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 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, each Arbiter shall nominate three candidates
      within 10 days thereafter, two of whom the other shall decline, and the
      decision shall be made by drawing
lots.

            


    

     

    
      	
              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 upon the
      final decision of the Arbiters may be entered in any court of competent
      jurisdiction.

            


    

     

    
      	
              C.

            	
              If
      more than one reinsurer is involved in the same dispute, all such
      reinsurers shall constitute and act as one party for purposes of this
      Article and communications shall be made by the Company to each of the
      reinsurers constituting one party, provided, however, that nothing herein
      shall impair the rights of such reinsurers to assert several, rather than
      joint, defenses or claims, nor be construed as changing the liability of
      the reinsurers participating under the terms of this Contract from several
      to joint.

      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.

      to be due hereunder, the Reinsurer, at the request of the Company, will
      submit to the jurisdiction of a court of competent jurisdiction within the

      understood to constitute a waiver of the Reinsurer’s rights to commence an
      action in any court of competent jurisdiction in the United States, to
      remove an action to a United States District Court, or to seek a transfer
      of a case to another court as permitted by the laws of the United States

      pursuant to any statute of any state, territory or district of the United
      States which makes provision therefor, the Reinsurer hereby designates the
      party named in its Interests and Liabilities Agreement, or if no party is
      named therein, the Superintendent, Commissioner or Director of Insurance
      or other officer specified for that purpose in the statute, or his
      successor or successors in office, as its true and lawful attorney upon
      whom may be served any lawful process in any action, suit or proceeding
      instituted by or on behalf of the Company or any beneficiary hereunder
      arising out of this Contract.

      radioactive isotopes in any form where the nuclear exposure is not
      considered by the Reassured to be the primary
  hazard.

any provision to the contrary within this Contract or any amendment thereto, it
is agreed that this Contract excludes loss, damage, cost or expense directly or
indirectly caused by, contributed to by, resulting from or arising out of or in
connection with any act of terrorism, as defined herein, regardless of any other
cause or event contributing concurrently or in any other sequence to the
loss.

     

    An act of
terrorism includes any act, or preparation in respect of action, or threat of
action designed to influence the government de jure or de facto of any nation or any
political division thereof, or in pursuit of political, religious, ideological
or similar purposes to intimidate the public or a section of the public of any
nation by any person or group(s) of persons whether acting alone or on behalf of
or in connection with any organization(s) or government(s) de jure or de facto, and
which:

     

    
      	
               
      

            	
              1.

            	
              Involves
      violence against one or more persons,
or

            


    

     

    
      	
               
      

            	
              2.

            	
              Involves
      damage to property; or

            


    

     

    
      	
               
      

            	
              3.

            	
              Endangers
      life other than the person committing the action;
  or

            


    

     

    
      	
               
      

            	
              4.

            	
              Creates
      a risk to health or safety of the public or a section of the public;
      or

            


    

     

    
      	
               
      

            	
              5.

            	
              Is
      designed to interfere with or disrupt an electronic
  system.

            


    

     

    This
Contract also excludes loss, damage, cost or expense directly or indirectly
caused by, contributed to by, resulting from or arising out of or in connection
with any action in controlling, preventing, suppressing, retaliating against or
responding to any act of terrorism.

     

    Notwithstanding
the above and subject otherwise to the terms, conditions, and limitations of
this Contract, in respect only of personal lines, this Contract will pay actual
loss or damage (but not related cost and expense) caused by any act of terrorism
provided such act is not directly or indirectly caused by, contributed to by,
resulting from or arising out of or in connection with biological, chemical, or
nuclear pollution or contamination.

                With
      respect to each event for which the BLA exceeds the Company’s retention as
      defined under the Retention and Limit Article, an amount equal to the
      Reinsurer’s share of the lesser of (1) the amount by which the BLA exceeds
      the Company’s retention as defined under the Retention and Limit Article,
      or (2) the Reinsurer’s per occurrence limit as defined under the Retention
      and Limit Article, shall be deemed to equal the event specific collateral
      amount at the calculation date (the ‘Event Collateral
      Amount’

              In
      respect of all events for which an ECA exceeds $0, the aggregate amount of
      the required collateral to be held in the Trust Fund shall be equal to the
      amount by which the lesser of (1) the sum of the ECAs, or (2) the
      Reinsurer’s term limit as defined under the Reinstatement Article, exceeds
      amounts paid to date by the Reinsurer. Such aggregate amount shall be
      deemed to be the ‘Aggregate Collateral Obligation’ or the
      ‘ACO.’

              At
      any month-end at which there is any security on deposit  in the
      Trust Fund, the Company shall perform this calculation within 10 days
      after the end of such month and report to the Reinsurer and Trustee named
      in the Trust Agreement information supporting any BLA, ECA and ACO amounts
      greater than $0.  The Assets in the Trust Fund will be adjusted
      monthly based on this calculation.  In the event the balance of
      the Trust Fund is greater than the amount required to fully fund the
      Obligations, as defined by the ACO, the Company shall promptly, within 10
      days, authorize a return of such excess amount to the Reinsurer.
      Similarly, in the event the balance of the Trust Fund falls below the
      aoumt required to fully fund the Obligations, the Reinsurer shall
      promptly, within 10 days, add assets to the Trust Fund to eliminate such
      shortfall.”

            


    

    


    It is Also Agreed that the

    (Re)Insurer’s
Liability Clause - LMA3333

     

    (Re)insurer’s liability several not
joint

     

    The
liability of a (re)insurer under this contract is several and not joint with
other (re)insurers party to this contract.  A (re)insurer is liable only
for the proportion of liability it has underwritten.  A (re)insurer is not
jointly liable for the proportion of liability underwritten by any other
(re)insurer.  Nor is a (re)insurer otherwise responsible for any liability
of any other (re)insurer that may underwrite this contract.

     

    The
proportion of liability under this contract underwritten by a (re)insurer (or,
in the case of a Lloyd’s syndicate, the total of the proportions underwritten by
all the members of the syndicate taken together) is shown next to its
stamp.  This is subject always to the provision concerning “signing”
below.

     

    In the
case of a Lloyd’s syndicate, each member of the syndicate (rather than the
syndicate itself) is a (re)insurer.  Each member has underwritten a
proportion of the total shown for the syndicate (that total itself being the
total of the proportions underwritten by all the members of the syndicate taken
together).  The liability of each member of the syndicate is several
and not joint with other members.  A member is liable only for that
member’s proportion.  A member is not jointly liable for any other
member’s proportion.  Nor is any member otherwise responsible for any
liability of any other (re)insurer that may underwrite this
contract.  The business address of each member is Lloyd’s, One Lime
Street, London EC3M 7HA.  The identity of each member of a Lloyd’s
syndicate and their respective proportion may be obtained by writing to Market
Services, Lloyd’s, at the above address.

     

    Proportion
of liability

     

    Unless
there is “signing” (see below), the proportion of liability under this contract
underwritten by each (re)insurer (or, in the case of a Lloyd’s syndicate, the
total of the proportions underwritten by all the members of the syndicate taken
together) is shown next to its stamp and is referred to as its “written
line”.

     

    Where
this contract permits, written lines, or certain written lines, may be adjusted
(“signed”).  In that case a schedule is to be appended to this
contract to show the definitive proportion of liability under this contract
underwritten by each (re)insurer (or, in the case of a Lloyd’s syndicate, the
total of the proportions underwritten by all the members of the syndicate taken
together).  A definitive proportion (or, in the case of a Lloyd’s
syndicate, the total of the proportions underwritten by all the members of a
Lloyd’s syndicate taken together) is referred to as a “signed
line”.  The signed lines shown in the schedule will prevail over the
written lines unless a proven error in calculation has occurred.

     

    Although
reference is made at various points in this clause to “this contract” in the
singular, where the circumstances so require this should be read as a reference
to contracts in the plural.
