D.
    
    In the event the Subscribing Reinsurers Statement of Valuation of the outstanding claim or
claims is viewed as unacceptable to the Company, the Company may either abandon the
commutation effort, or may seek to settle any difference by using an independent actuary
agreed to by the parties.
 E.
    
    If the parties cannot agree on an acceptable independent actuary within 15 calendar days of
the date of the Subscribing Reinsurers Statement of Valuation, then each party shall appoint
an actuary as party arbitrators for the limited and sole purpose of selecting an independent
actuary. If the actuaries cannot agree on an acceptable independent actuary within 15
calendar days of the date of the Subscribing Reinsurers Statement of Valuation, the Company
shall supply the Subscribing Reinsurer with a list of at least three proposed independent
actuaries, and the Subscribing Reinsurer shall select the independent actuary from that list.
 F.
    
    Upon selection of the independent actuary, both parties shall present their respective
written submissions to the independent actuary. The independent actuary may, at his or her
discretion, request additional information. The independent actuary shall issue his or her
decision within 45 calendar days after the written submissions have been filed and any
additional information has been provided.
 G.
    
    The decision of the independent actuary shall be final and binding. The expense of the
independent actuary shall be equally divided between the two parties. For the purposes of
this Article, unless mutually agreed otherwise, an independent actuary shall be an actuary
who satisfies each of the following criteria:
 1.

subject to this Contract; and2.
    
    Is either a Fellow of the Casualty Actuarial Society or of the American Academy of
Actuaries; and3.
    
    Is disinterested and impartial regarding this commutation.
 H.
    
    Notwithstanding paragraphs A, B and C above, in the event that the Subscribing Reinsurer no
longer meets the criteria set forth in subparagraphs 1 and 2 of paragraph A above, this
commutation may continue on a mutually agreed basis.
 I.
    
    Payment by the Subscribing Reinsurer of the amount requested in accordance with paragraph B,
C or F above, shall release the Subscribing Reinsurer from all further liability for any
outstanding claim or claims, known or unknown, under this Contract and shall

excess layer, in lieu of the provisions of subparagraphs 1 and 2 of this paragraph F, the
Subscribing Reinsurer will receive premium equal to the lesser of:

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

defined as follows:
 1.

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 any action against its
insured or reinsured or in the preparation or prosecution of an appeal consequent upon
such an action.2.

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 any action against its
insured or reinsured or in the preparation or prosecution of an appeal consequent upon

Article XIII  Florida Hurricane Catastrophe Fund
 A.
    
    The Company shall provisionally purchase from the Florida Hurricane Catastrophe Fund (FHCF)

 1.
    
    As respects Liberty American Insurance Company, 90.0% of $5,521,302 excess of
$1,086,017; and2.
    
    As respects Liberty American Select Insurance Company, 90.0% of $75,752,188 excess
of $14,900,133.
  B.
    
    Any loss reimbursement paid or payable to the Company under the coverage layers provided by
the FHCF as a result of loss occurrences commencing during the term of this Contract shall
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 reimbursement contract between the Company
and the State Board of Administration of the State of Florida 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.
 C.
    
    Prior to the determination of the Companys FHCF retention and payout, if any, under the
coverage layer provided by the reimbursement contract between the Company and the State Board
of Administration of the State of Florida, the Reinsurers liability hereunder will be
determined provisionally based on the projected payout, determined in accordance with the
provisions of the reimbursement contract. Following the FHCFs final determination of the
payout under the coverage layer provided by the reimbursement contract, the ultimate net loss
under this Contract will be recalculated. If, as a result of such calculation, the loss to
the Reinsurer under any excess layer of this Contract in any one loss occurrence is less than
the amount previously paid by the Reinsurer under that excess layer, the Company shall
promptly remit the difference to the Reinsurer. If the loss to the Reinsurer under any excess
layer in any one loss occurrence is greater than the amount previously paid by the Reinsurer,
the Reinsurer shall promptly remit the difference to the Company.
 D.
    
    If an FHCF reimbursement amount is based on the Companys losses in more than one loss
occurrence commencing during the term of this Contract, the total such FHCF reimbursement
received by the Company shall be allocated to individual loss occurrences in chronological
order of the dates such loss occurrences commence, beginning with the first such loss
occurrence commencing during the term of this Contract, provided that:
 1.
    
    The portion of the total FHCF reimbursement amount to be allocated by the Company
to any individual loss occurrence shall be equal to the lesser of (a) the amount of such
FHCF reimbursement to which the Company would be entitled for that loss occurrence alone,
or (b) the remaining such FHCF reimbursement which has not been allocated by the Company
to prior loss occurrences; and2.
    
    The total amount allocated by the Company to all such loss occurrences shall be
equal to the total FHCF reimbursement received by the Company for such loss occurrences.

the Company and any Reinsurer relating to the interpretation or performance of this Contract,
including its formation or validity, or any transaction under this Contract, whether arising
before or after termination, shall be submitted to arbitration.
 B.
    
    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 provided that communication shall
be made by the Company to each of the reinsurers constituting the one party, and provided,

rather than joint, defenses or claims, nor be construed as changing the liability of the
Reinsurer under the terms of this Contract from several to joint.
 C.
    
    Upon written request of any party, each party shall choose an arbitrator and the two chosen
shall select a third arbitrator. If either party refuses or neglects to appoint an arbitrator
within 30 days after receipt of the written request for arbitration, the requesting party may
appoint a second arbitrator. If the two arbitrators fail to agree on the selection of a third
arbitrator within 30 days of their appointment, the Company shall petition the American
Arbitration Association to appoint the third arbitrator. If the American Arbitration
Association fails to appoint the third arbitrator within 30 days after it has been requested

in which the arbitration is to be held to appoint the third arbitrator. All arbitrators shall
be active or retired officers of insurance or reinsurance companies, or Lloyds London
Underwriters, and disinterested in the outcome of the arbitration. Each party shall submit
its case to the arbitrators within 30 days of the appointment of the third arbitrator.

the parties.
 E.
    
    The arbitrators shall have the power to determine all procedural rules for the holding of the
arbitration including but not limited to inspection of documents, examination of witnesses and
any other matter relating to the conduct of the arbitration. The arbitrators shall interpret
this Contract as an honorable engagement and not as merely a legal obligation; they are
relieved of all judicial formalities and may abstain from following the strict rules of law.
The arbitrators may award interest and costs. Each party shall bear the expense of its own
arbitrator and shall share equally with the other party the expenses of the third arbitrator
and of the arbitration.
 F.
    
    The decision in writing of the majority of the arbitrators shall be final and binding upon
both parties. Judgment may be entered upon the final decision of the arbitrators in any court
having jurisdiction. The arbitration shall take place in Pinellas Park, Florida, unless
otherwise mutually agreed between the Company and the Reinsurer.
 G.
    
    This Article shall remain in full force and effect in the event any other provision of this
Contract shall be found invalid or non-binding.

    It is agreed that in the event the Reinsurer fails to pay any amount claimed to be due
hereunder, the Reinsurer, at the request of the Company, will submit to the jurisdiction of a

States District Court, or to seek a transfer of a case to another court as permitted by the
laws of the United States or of any state in the United States.

Nuclear Incident Exclusion Clause  Physical Damage  Reinsurance (U.S.A.)
 1.
    
    This Reinsurance does not cover any loss or liability accruing to the Reassured, directly or
indirectly and whether as Insurer or Reinsurer, from any Pool of Insurers or Reinsurers formed
for the purpose of covering Atomic or Nuclear Energy risks.2.
    
    Without in any way restricting the operation of paragraph (1) of this Clause, this
Reinsurance does not cover any loss or liability accruing to the Reassured, directly or
indirectly and whether as Insurer or Reinsurer, from any insurance against Physical Damage
(including business interruption or consequential loss arising out of such Physical Damage)
to:
 I.
    
    Nuclear reactor power plants including all auxiliary property on the site, orII.
    
    Any other nuclear reactor installation, including laboratories
handling radioactive materials in connection with reactor
installations, and critical facilities as such, orIII.
    
    Installations for fabricating complete fuel elements or for
processing substantial quantities of special nuclear material, and
for reprocessing, salvaging, chemically separating, storing or
disposing of spent nuclear fuel or waste materials, orIV.
    
    Installations other than those listed in paragraph (2) III above
using substantial quantities of radioactive isotopes or other
products of nuclear fission.
 3.
    
    Without in any way restricting the operations of paragraphs (1) and (2) hereof, this
Reinsurance does not cover any loss or liability by radioactive contamination accruing to the
Reassured, directly or indirectly, and whether as Insurer or Reinsurer, from any insurance on
property which is on the same site as a nuclear reactor power plant or other nuclear
installation and which normally would be insured therewith except that this paragraph (3)
shall not operate
 (a)
    
    where Reassured does not have knowledge of such nuclear reactor power plant or
nuclear installation, or(b)
    
    where said insurance contains a provision excluding coverage for damage to property
caused by or resulting from radioactive contamination, however caused. However on and
after 1st January 1960 this sub-paragraph (b) shall only apply provided the said
radioactive contamination exclusion provision has been approved by the Governmental
Authority having jurisdiction thereof.
 4.
    
    Without in any way restricting the operations of paragraphs (1), (2) and (3) hereof, this
Reinsurance does not cover any loss or liability by radioactive contamination accruing to the
Reassured, directly or indirectly, and whether as Insurer or Reinsurer, when such radioactive
contamination is a named hazard specifically insured against.5.
    
    It is understood and agreed that this Clause shall not extend to risks using radioactive
isotopes in any form where the nuclear exposure is not considered by the Reassured to be the
primary hazard.6.
    
    The term special nuclear material shall have the meaning given it in the Atomic Energy Act
of 1954 or by any law amendatory thereof.7.
    
    Reassured to be sole judge of what constitutes:
 (a)
    
    substantial quantities, and(b)
    
    the extent of installation, plant or site.
