DURATION


 


Section 12.1 Term.
The reinsurance provided under this Agreement shall remain continuously in force for so long as the Company shall remain liable
on the Policies or until terminated by either Party by written notice given to the other Party at least twelve (12) months in advance
of the termination date, a copy of which shall be provided to the Iowa Insurance Division.


 


Section 12.2 Runoff
Coverage. If this Agreement is terminated, the reinsurance hereunder shall continue to apply to benefits and/or claims under
all Policies (including any lapsed, surrendered, reinstated, renewed or matured Policy) until the Company’s obligations under
the Policies cease. The Parties hereto expressly covenant and agree that, in the event of termination of this Agreement, they will
cooperate with each other in the handling of all such run-off insurance business until the Company’s obligations under the
Policies cease. All costs and expenses associated with the handling of such run-off business shall be borne solely by the Reinsurer.
For the avoidance of doubt, in the event this Agreement is terminated, the reinsurance hereunder shall not apply to any insurance
policies or annuity contracts, or binders, contracts, certificates, riders, endorsements, supplemental benefits, or other agreements
related or attaching to such insurance policies or contracts, that were first issued or assumed by the Company on or after the
effective date of any termination of this Agreement.

the entire term of this Agreement.


 


(b)        It is understood
and agreed that any term or condition required by Applicable Law to be included in this Agreement for the Company to receive statutory

Section 14.2 Other
Terms. The terms “Net Positive Consideration”, “Specified Policy Acquisition Expenses” and “General
Deductions Limitation” used in this Article are defined by reference to Regulation Section 1.848-2 and Code Section 848.


 


Section 14.3 DAC
Tax Election. The parties to this Agreement agree to make the election set forth below pursuant to Section 1.848-2(g) (8) of
the Income Tax Regulations issued under Section 848 of the Code. This election shall be effective for taxable year 2016 and for
all subsequent taxable years for which this Agreement remains in effect.


 


(a)        The party with the
Net Positive Consideration for this Agreement for each taxable year will capitalize Specified Policy Acquisition Expenses with
respect to this Agreement without regard to the General Deductions Limitation of Code Section 848(c)(1).


 


(b)       Both parties agree

by the Internal Revenue Service, to ensure consistency.


 


(c)       The Company will
submit a schedule to the Reinsurer by May 1 of each year with its calculation of the net consideration for the preceding calendar
year. The Reinsurer may contest such calculation by providing an alternative calculation to the Company in writing within thirty
(30) calendar days of the Reinsurer’s receipt of the Company’s calculation.


 


(d)       If the Reinsurer
contests the Company’s calculation, the parties will act in good faith to reach an agreement as to the correct amount within thirty
(30) calendar days of the date that the Company receives the Reinsurer’s alternative calculation. If the parties reach an agreement
on the net consideration calculation, each party will report the agreed upon amount in its income tax return for the preceding
calendar year. If the parties are unable to reach an agreement on the amount of net consideration, then the dispute shall be resolved
pursuant to Article IX of this Agreement. If Reinsurer does not contest the Company’s calculation the parties will utilize the
calculation provided by the Company for reporting purposes in their respective income tax returns for the preceding year.


 


(e)        Each party will attach
a schedule to its federal income tax return for its first taxable year ending after the election becomes effective that identifies
this Agreement as a reinsurance agreement for which joint elections have been made under Treasury Regulation Section 1.848-2(g)(8).

Section 15.1. In the
event of the failure of the Reinsurer to perform its obligations hereunder, the Reinsurer, at the request of the Company, shall

constitute a waiver of the Reinsurer’s right to commence an action in any court of competent jurisdiction, to remove an action
or to seek a transfer of a case to another court as permitted by law. The Reinsurer, once the appropriate court is selected, whether
such court is the one originally chosen by the Company and accepted by the Reinsurer or is determined by removal, transfer or otherwise,
as provided for above, shall comply with all requirements necessary to give said court jurisdiction and, in any suit instituted
against the Reinsurer upon this Agreement, shall abide by the final decision of such court or of any appellate court in the event
of appeal. This Article shall not be read to conflict with or override the obligations of the parties to arbitrate their disputes

Derivatives


 


Derivatives will primarily be limited to
those hedging liability risks. Risks hedged would primarily be the equity market related guarantees of the Members Life Annuity
Contracts but can also include rate and credit oriented exposures generally related to liability reserves. Derivative usage and
limits on notional amounts will be set by the Board of Directors of CMFG Life Insurance Company from time to time and must comply
with the CMFG Life Insurance Company Derivative Use Plan and Derivative Policy.

Transfer restrictions


 


Assets may be transferred into and out
of the separate accounts as long as asset values exceed liability values after such transfers. Impaired securities, securities
in default or assets encumbered by other agreements (modified coinsurance “segregated” assets, collateral for trusts,
etc.) may not be transferred into the separate accounts.


 


Borrowing to Support the Separate
Accounts


 


Assets of the Separate Accounts may be
used to collateralize borrowing in order to meet short-term liquidity needs of the Separate Accounts.


 


Use of Funding Agreements


 


Assets of the Separate Accounts may be
used to collateralize funding agreements with the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”). Funding agreement proceeds will
be invested within the Separate Accounts in assets that are consistent with these investment guidelines and that match funding
agreement liabilities. The funding agreement liabilities are recorded in each separate account so we are using separate account
assets to satisfy liabilities attributable to the separate accounts. We track these assets that back the funding agreements in
a separate portfolio so they can be identified separately.


 


Securities Lending


 


The Separate Accounts may participate in
a securities lending program consistent with the terms of the general account securities lending program in which collateral is
received for loaned securities, provided investments made with such collateral are invested within the Separate Accounts in assets
consistent with these Investment guidelines and that match securities lending program liabilities.
