makes available to its members a variety of services and benefits, including
business and professional benefits, family and lifestyle benefits and health and

and other insurance related products;

      WHEREAS, CARRIER intends to issue group insurance policies ("Group
Policies") to The ALLIANCE Group Insurance Trust, an Illinois trust (the

of the ALLIANCE. CARRIER also intends to issue individual insurance policies
("Individual Policies") to members of the ALLIANCE in states that do not
authorize the marketing and sale of "association group" policies; and

      WHEREAS, the parties desire to enter into this Agreement to set forth the
relationship between the ALLIANCE and CARRIER;

      NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the mutual covenants and
agreements hereinafter set forth, the ALLIANCE and CARRIER hereby agree as
follows:

1. VENDOR RELATIONSHIP. The ALLIANCE agrees that during the Term hereof and upon
the terms and conditions contained herein it will make available to members of
the ALLIANCE such Group Policies, Individual Polices and other insurance related
products (collectively, the "Products") offered by CARRIER as the parties may
agree from time to time. CARRIER shall be solely responsible for designing the
Products involved and for establishing the prices to be charged for such
Products, subject to consultation with the ALLIANCE. The ALLIANCE shall be
solely responsible for determining which Products of CARRIER will be made
available through the ALLIANCE to its members. The ALLIANCE may make such
Products available to its members through its communications to members and
prospective members, through its catalog of benefits or through newspaper,
television or other advertisements and other means selected by the ALLIANCE.
Nothing contained herein and no performance by the ALLIANCE of its obligations
hereunder shall be deemed to constitute an endorsement by the ALLIANCE of
CARRIER or of the Products, and the ALLIANCE assumes no financial responsibility
for the operating results of any Products sold by CARRIER to members of the
ALLIANCE.

2. DEFINITIONS. For purposes of this Agreement, the following terms shall have
the following meanings:

and all losses, damages (including, without limitation, actual damages,
compensatory damages, punitive damages and extra-contractual damages),

                                       4
<PAGE>

liabilities, penalties, regulatory fines, costs and expenses (including, without
limitation, attorneys' fees, investigation costs and all other reasonable costs
associated with the defense thereof) (collectively, "Losses"), as incurred,
arising out of or relating to (a) any breach of, or any inaccuracy in, any
representation or warranty made by CARRIER in this Agreement; (b) any breach of,
or failure by, CARRIER to perform any covenant or obligation of CARRIER set out
in this Agreement; and (c) any other Loss resulting from, or arising out of any
acts, occurrences or matters caused by CARRIER, including but not limited to
CARRIER's Cornerstone America marketing division ("Cornerstone") and the
independent insurance agents under contract with Cornerstone, provided that such
Loss was not caused in whole or in material part by the act or omission of an
ALLIANCE Indemnified Party.

      (b) Indemnification by the ALLIANCE. The ALLIANCE agrees to indemnify and
hold harmless CARRIER and each of CARRIER's officers, directors, employees and
agents (collectively, a "CARRIER Indemnified Party") from and against any and
all Losses, as incurred, arising out of or relating to (a) any breach of, or any
inaccuracy in, any representation or warranty made by the ALLIANCE in this
Agreement; (b) any breach of, or failure by, the ALLIANCE to perform any
covenant or obligation set out in this Agreement; and (c) any other Loss
resulting from, or arising out of any acts, occurrences or matters caused by the
ALLIANCE, provided that such Loss was not caused in whole or in material part by
the act or omission of a CARRIER Indemnified Party.

      (c) Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings.

            (i) If any proceeding shall be brought or asserted against any
      person and/or entity entitled to indemnity hereunder (an "Indemnified
      Party"), such Indemnified Party promptly shall notify the person from whom
      indemnity is sought (the "Indemnifying Party") in writing, and the
      Indemnifying Party shall assume the defense thereof, including the
      employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party and
      the payment of all fees and expenses incurred in connection with the
      defense thereof; provided, however, that the failure of any Indemnified
      Party to give such notice shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its
      obligations or liabilities pursuant to this Agreement, except to the
      extent (and only to the extent) that it shall be finally determined by a
      court of competent jurisdiction (which determination is not subject to
      appeal or further review) that such failure shall have proximately and
      materially adversely prejudiced the Indemnifying Party.

            (ii) An Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate
      counsel in any such proceeding and to participate in the defense thereof,
      but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such
      Indemnified Party or Parties unless: (1) the Indemnifying Party has agreed
      in writing to pay such fees and expenses; or (2) the Indemnifying Party
      shall have failed promptly to assume the defense of such Proceeding and to
      employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party in any
      such Proceeding; or (3) the named parties to any such proceeding
      (including any impleaded parties) include both such Indemnified Party and
      the Indemnifying Party, and such Indemnified Party shall have been advised
      by counsel that a conflict of interest is likely to exist if the same
      counsel were to represent such Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying
      Party (in which case, if such Indemnified Party notifies the Indemnifying
      Party in writing that it elects to employ separate counsel at the expense
      of the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnifying Party shall not have the right
      to assume the defense thereof and such counsel shall be at the reasonable
      expense of the Indemnifying Party). The Indemnifying Party shall not be
      liable for any settlement of any such proceeding effected without its
      written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed
      or conditioned. No Indemnifying Party shall, without the prior written
      consent of the Indemnified Party, effect any settlement of any pending
      proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Party is a party, unless
      such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified
      Party from all liability on claims that are

                                       5
<PAGE>

      the subject matter of such proceeding.

            (iii) All fees and expenses of the Indemnified Party (including
      reasonable fees and expenses to the extent incurred in connection with
      investigating or preparing to defend such proceeding in a manner not
      inconsistent with this Section) shall be paid to the Indemnified Party, as
      incurred, within ten (10) business days of a detailed written notice
      thereof to the Indemnifying Party (regardless of whether it is ultimately
      determined that an Indemnified Party is not entitled to indemnification
      hereunder; provided, that the Indemnifying Party may require such
      Indemnified Party to undertake to reimburse all such fees and expenses to
      the extent it is finally judicially determined that such Indemnified Party
      is not entitled to indemnification hereunder).

10. RELATIONSHIP OF THE PARTIES. The relationship of the Parties created hereby
is that of independent contractors, and each Party has and retains the right to
full control over the performance of its obligations hereunder. Neither Party is
an employee, joint venturer, affiliate or partner of the other Party, and
neither Party shall have any right or authority to create or assume any
obligation of any kind on behalf of the other Party.

11. AUDIT RIGHTS. The ALLIANCE, itself or by its agents, shall have the right,
on reasonable written notice, during regular business hours and at the
ALLIANCE's expense, to review and audit the books and records of CARRIER
relating to the obligations of CARRIER hereunder. The ALLIANCE shall reimburse
CARRIER for expenses incurred by CARRIER in assisting the ALLIANCE in such
review and audit. The provisions of this Section 11 shall survive for a period
of two years beyond the termination or expiration of this Agreement.

12. FORCE MAJEURE. Neither Party shall be held responsible for any delay or
failure in performance of any part of this Agreement to the extent such delay or
failure is caused by fire, flood, explosion, war, terrorist act, strike,
embargo, government requirement, civil or military authority, act of God, act or
omission of transportation carriers or other similar causes beyond its control
and without the fault or negligence of the delayed or non-performing Party or
its subcontractors ("Force Majeure Conditions"). If any Force Majeure Condition
occurs, the Party delayed or unable to perform shall give immediate notice to
the other Party, stating the nature of the Force Majeure Condition and any
action being taken to avoid or minimize its effect and its estimate of how long
such delay or failure will continue. If the Force Majeure Condition continues
for a period of at least 180 days, either Party may terminate this Agreement by
delivery of written notice to the other Party.

25. BINDING ARBITRATION. Any dispute, controversy, or claim among or between the
Parties relating to or arising from this Cash Collection Agreement shall be
submitted to and settled by binding arbitration ("Arbitration"), administered by
the Dallas, Texas office of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") and
conducted pursuant to the current rules of the AAA governing commercial
disputes. The Arbitration hearing shall take place in Dallas, Texas, unless
otherwise agreed to by the Parties. Such Arbitration shall be before three
neutral arbitrators (the "Panel") licensed to practice law and familiar with
commercial disputes. Any award rendered in any Arbitration shall be final and
conclusive upon the Parties, and the judgment thereon may be entered in the
highest court of the forum (state or federal) having jurisdiction over the
issues addressed in the Arbitration. The administration fees and expenses of the
Arbitration shall be borne equally by the Parties to the Arbitration, provided
that each Party to the Arbitration shall pay for and bear the cost of its own
experts, evidence, and attorney's fees for the Arbitration, except that, in the
discretion of the Panel, any award may include the cost of a Party's counsel for
the Arbitration and/or its share of the expense of the Arbitration if the Panel
expressly

                                       9

determines that an award of such costs is appropriate to the Party to the
Arbitration whose position substantially prevails in such Arbitration. To submit
a matter to Arbitration, the Party seeking redress shall notify in writing the
Party or Parties against which such redress is sought, describe the nature of
such claim, the provision of this Cash Collection Agreement that has allegedly
been violated and the material facts surrounding such claim. The Panel shall
render a single written decision. The decision of the Panel shall be binding
upon the Parties to the Arbitration, and after the completion of such
Arbitration, the Parties to the Arbitration may only institute litigation
regarding the arbitrated claim under the Cash Collection Agreement for the sole
purpose of enforcing the determination of the Arbitration hearing or seeking
injunctive or equitable relief.

      IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Parties have caused this Agreement to be executed
and delivered as of the date first above written.
