payable in accordance with Article VIII.

Agreement, the Reinsurer shall pay the Ceding Company the Reinsurer’s Quota Share of the following amounts: (i) 1.85% of premiums collected for such month in connection with the Reinsured Policies as a provision for Premium Taxes incurred

for any guaranty fund assessments arising on account of premiums on the Reinsured Policies. 
 Section 5.2 Premium Taxes.
The Ceding Company shall be liable for all Premium Taxes. The Reinsurer shall pay to the Ceding Company a provision for Premium Taxes incurred in connection with premiums received under the Reinsured Policies in accordance with Section 4.3.

 Section 5.3 DAC Tax Election. All uncapitalized terms used in this Section 5.2 shall have the meanings set forth
in the Treasury regulations under section 848 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“Code”). 
 (a) The Parties will elect, pursuant to Treasury regulations section 1.848-2(g)(8), to determine specified policy acquisition expenses with respect to this Agreement without regard to the general
deductions limitation of section 848(c)(1) of the Code. This election shall be effective for the calendar year ending on or after the Effective Date and for all subsequent taxable years for which any reinsurance agreement is deemed to exist due to
an election made pursuant to Section 5.2 of this Agreement. Each Party agrees to attach to its Tax Return filed for the first taxable year ending after this election becomes effective a schedule that identifies this Agreement as the subject of
this election. The Party with the net positive consideration under this Agreement for each taxable year shall capitalize specified policy acquisition expenses with respect to this Agreement without regard to the general deductions limitation of
section 848(c)(1) of the Code. 
 (b) To ensure consistency, the Parties agree to exchange information pertaining
to the amount of net consideration deemed to be paid pursuant to any reinsurance agreement deemed to exist due to an election made pursuant to Section 5.2 of this Agreement. Ceding Company shall submit a schedule to Reinsurer by March 1 of
each year that follows a year during which this Agreement was in effect for any portion of such year of Ceding Company’s calculations of the net consideration under this Agreement for the preceding calendar year. This schedule of calculations
shall be accompanied by a statement signed by an officer of Ceding Company stating that Ceding Company will report such net consideration in its federal income tax return for the preceding calendar year. Reinsurer may contest such calculation by
providing an alternative calculation to Ceding Company in writing within thirty (30) days of Reinsurer’s receipt of Ceding Company’s calculation. If Reinsurer does not notify Ceding Company within such time that it contests the
calculation, Reinsurer shall report the net consideration as determined by Ceding Company in Reinsurer’s Tax Return for the previous calendar year. 
  

 12 








 (c) If Reinsurer contests Ceding Company’s calculation of the net
consideration, the Parties will act in good faith to reach an agreement as to the correct amount within thirty (30) days of the date Reinsurer submits its alternative calculation. If the Parties reach an agreement on an amount of net
consideration, each Party will report the agreed upon amount in its federal income tax return for the previous calendar year. If during such period, Ceding Company and Reinsurer are unable to reach agreement, they shall within ten (10) days of
the expiration of the thirty (30) day period set forth in this Section 5.2(c), cause a Third Party Accountant promptly to review (which review shall commence no later than five (5) days after the selection of the Third Party
Accountant) this Agreement and the calculations of Ceding Company and Reinsurer for the purpose of calculating the net consideration under this Agreement. In making such calculation, the Third Party Accountant shall consider only those items or
amounts in Ceding Company’s calculation as to which Reinsurer has disagreed. The Third Party Accountant shall deliver to Ceding Company and Reinsurer, as promptly as practicable (but no later than thirty (30) days after the commencement of
its review), a report setting forth such calculation, which calculation shall result in a net consideration between the amount thereof shown in Ceding Company’s calculation delivered pursuant to Section 5.2(b) and the amount thereof in
Reinsurer’s calculation delivered pursuant to Section 5.2(b). Such report shall be final and binding upon Ceding Company and Reinsurer. The fees, costs and expenses of the Third Party Accountant shall be borne (x) by Ceding Company if
the difference between the net consideration as calculated by the Third Party Accountant and Ceding Company’s calculation is greater than the difference between the net consideration as calculated by the Third Party Accountant and
Reinsurer’s calculation; (y) by Reinsurer if the first such difference is less than the second such difference; and (z) otherwise equally by Ceding Company and Reinsurer. 
 ARTICLE VI

 Section 6.2 Settlement Authority. The Ceding Company shall have full authority to determine liability on any Claim reinsured
hereunder and may settle losses as it deems appropriate, but in so doing it shall act with the skill and diligence commonly expected from qualified personnel performing such duties for U.S. life insurance companies and consistent with the Ceding
Company’s Then Current Practice.

on any Reinsured Policy because of an overstatement or understatement of age or misstatement of sex, established during the life, or after the death, of the insured, the Reinsurer will share in such increase or reduction in proportion to the

take steps reasonably satisfactory to the Ceding Company to assure the Ceding Company of full Statutory Financial Statement Credit for the Reinsured Policies within forty-five (45) calendar days of Reinsurer’s receipt of written notice
from the Ceding Company that the Ceding Company has been advised by any Governmental Authority that the Governmental Authority will deny or has denied Statutory Financial Statement Credit on any financial statement filed by the Ceding Company with
such Governmental Authority; 
 (c) If the Reinsurer is in material breach of any other representation, warranty
or covenant under this Agreement and the Reinsurer fails to cure any such material breach of any representation, warranty or covenant hereunder within sixty (60) calendar days of receipt of written notice of such breach by the Reinsurer;

 (d) If the Reinsurer fails in any material respects to fund the Reinsurance Trust Account to the amount

 Section 11.3 Recapture Fee. The Ceding Company shall pay a recapture fee (the
“Recapture Fee”) to the Reinsurer upon (i) the occurrence of any recapture of the Reinsured Policies pursuant to Section 11.1(b) if such recapture was triggered by the inability of the Ceding Company to obtain full

under this Agreement at the time a recapture is triggered under Section 11.1(b), no Recapture Fee will be due and payable by the Ceding Company or (ii) termination of this Agreement under Section 20.3(a). The Recapture Fee shall be

this Agreement (collectively, the “Commutation Payment”); provided, however, that, if the amount calculated pursuant to clause (ii) of this subsection exceeds the amounts calculated pursuant to clauses (i),
(ii) and (iii) of this subsection, the Ceding Company shall pay to the Reinsurer the amount of such excess. Following recapture and payment to the appropriate Party of the net Commutation Payment required hereunder, neither Party shall
have further liability to the other Party hereunder with respect to the recaptured business.
