	C.	Notwithstanding the expiration or termination of the Reinsurer’s participation hereon, the provisions of this Contract shall continue to apply to all obligations and liabilities of the parties
incurred hereunder until all such obligations and liabilities are fully performed and discharged. 

 ARTICLE III

 SPECIAL TERMINATION AND OTHER REMEDIES 
  

	A.	The Company may terminate the share of the Reinsurer and/or exercise any other provisions provided hereunder as respects said Reinsurer at any time, either during the term or after the expiration of this Contract, upon
said Reinsurer’s experiencing one or more Special Termination Event(s). A “Special Termination Event” shall be deemed to have occurred in the event of any of the following circumstances: 


 

	 	1.	A State Insurance Department or other legal authority orders the Reinsurer to cease writing business; 

  

	 	2.	The Reinsurer has voluntarily ceased assuming new and renewal reinsurance business for the lines of business covered hereunder; 

  

	 	3.	The Reinsurer has become insolvent or has been placed into liquidation or receivership (whether voluntary or involuntary), or there have been instituted against it proceedings for the appointment of a receiver,
liquidator, rehabilitator, conservator, or trustee in bankruptcy, or other agent known by whatever name, to take possession of its assets or control of its operations; 


 

	 	4.	For any period not exceeding 12 months, which commences no earlier than 12 months prior to the inception of this Contract, the Reinsurer’s policyholders’ surplus (or total stamp capacity by managing
agent as respects Lloyd’s of London syndicates), as reported in the financial statements of the Reinsurer, has been reduced by 20%; 

  

	 	5.	The Reinsurer has become merged with, acquired or controlled by any company, corporation, or individual(s) not controlling the Reinsurer’s operations previously;

	 	9.	The Reinsurer has transferred its claims-paying authority under this Contract to an unaffiliated entity or in any other way has assigned its interests or delegated its obligations under this Contract to an unaffiliated
entity without the Company’s prior written consent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the transfer of claims-paying authority or administration to a third party, where the Reinsurer maintains control over
claims settlement decisions, shall not constitute a transfer of its claims-paying authority for purposes of this subparagraph; or 


 

	 	10.	The Reinsurer, directly or through the actions of a parent company or an affiliated entity, has invoked any U.S. or foreign statute, legislation, or jurisprudence that purports to enable the Reinsurer to require the
Company to settle its claims liabilities, including but not limited to any estimated or undetermined claims liabilities under this Contract, on an accelerated basis. This does not include any attempt to enforce a settlement of claims liabilities
under a commutation process to which the parties have agreed. 

 Unless it is prohibited by law from doing so, immediately
upon the Reinsurer’s knowledge of a Special Termination Event, the Reinsurer must notify the Company of such event in writing, by electronic mail, certified mail, or a nationally or internationally recognized delivery service. 

 

	B.	Where a Special Termination Event has taken place and after giving the Reinsurer prior written notice by electronic mail, certified mail, or by a nationally or internationally recognized delivery service, the Company
may invoke any one or a combination of the following: 

  

	 	1.	The Company may terminate or reduce the Reinsurer’s share hereunder effective at any time following the Reinsurer’s receipt of the written notice. In such event, the entire liability of the Reinsurer for Loss
Occurrences subsequent to the date of termination shall cease concurrently with the date of termination. Upon such termination, the Reinsurer shall refund to the Company the unearned portion of the reinsurance premium paid to it hereon (calculated
on a pro rata expiration basis) and any minimum premium hereon shall be waived. 

  

	 	2.	The Company may require that the Reinsurer commute all present and future liabilities under this Contract in return for a full and final release of all such liabilities. If the Company and Reinsurer cannot agree on the
capitalized value of the Reinsurer’s liabilities, they shall appoint an independent actuary. If the Company and Reinsurer cannot agree on an actuary, the Company and the Reinsurer shall each nominate three individuals, of whom the other shall
decline two, and the final decision shall be made by drawing lots. All the actuaries selected shall be disinterested in the outcome of the commutation and shall be Fellows of the Casualty Actuarial Society. The decision in writing of the appointed
actuary, when filed with the parties hereto, shall be final and binding on both parties. The expense of the actuary and of the actuarial calculation shall be equally divided between the two parties. Said actuarial calculation shall take place in a
location chosen by the Company. This commutation option is available to the Company at any time there remain any outstanding liabilities of the Reinsurer.

	C.	The Company may revoke its notice hereunder, prior to the date of termination, without prejudice to reinstitute later if it so chooses. 


 

	D.	The Company, at its sole option, may classify the Reinsurer as a “Run-off Reinsurer,” where said Reinsurer experiences one or more of the Special Termination Events set
forth in subparagraphs 1, 2, 3, 8, and 9 under paragraph A above. 

 Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Contract, in the event that a Reinsurer becomes classified by the Company as a Run-off Reinsurer at any time, the Company may elect, by giving written notice to the
Run-off Reinsurer at any time thereafter, that all or any of the following shall apply to the Run-off Reinsurer’s share hereunder: 

 

	 	1.	The interest penalty specified in the LATE PAYMENTS ARTICLE shall be increased by 0.5% for each 30 days that the payment is past due, subject to a maximum increase of 7.0%. 


 

	 	2.	In the event that either party demands arbitration of a dispute between the Company and the Run-off Reinsurer, and the amount in dispute is less than $500,000, unless the
arbitration notice includes a demand for rescission of this Contract, notwithstanding the terms of the ARBITRATION ARTICLE, the dispute shall be resolved by a sole arbitrator and the following procedures shall apply: 


 

	 	a.	The sole arbitrator shall be chosen by mutual agreement of the parties within 15 business days after the demand for arbitration. If the parties have not chosen an arbitrator within the 15 business days after
receipt of the arbitration notice, the arbitrator shall be chosen in accordance with the Neutral Selection Procedure modified for a single arbitrator, established by the AIDA Reinsurance and Insurance Arbitration Society – U.S. (ARIAS) and in
force on the date the arbitration is demanded. The nominated arbitrator must be available to read any written submissions and hear testimony within 60 days of being chosen. 


 

	 	b.	Within 10 business days after the arbitrator has been appointed, the parties shall be notified of deadlines for the submission of briefs and documentary evidence, as determined by the arbitrator. There shall be no
discovery or hearing unless the parties agree to engage in limited discovery and/or a hearing. Also, the arbitrator can determine, without the consent of the parties, that a limited hearing is necessary. 


 

	 	c.	The arbitrator shall render a decision within 10 business days after the later of the date on which briefs are submitted or the end of the limited hearing. The decision of the arbitrator shall be in writing and
shall be final and binding on both parties.

meanings given herein: 
  

	A.	Declaratory Judgment Expense 

 “Declaratory Judgment Expense” shall mean all expenses
incurred by the Company in connection with a declaratory judgment action brought to determine the Company’s defense and/or indemnification obligations that are allocable to a specific claim subject to this Contract. Declaratory Judgment Expense

 “Extra Contractual Obligations” shall mean those
liabilities not covered under any other provision of this Contract, including any punitive, exemplary, compensatory, or consequential damages, which arise from the handling of any claim on business covered hereunder; such liabilities arising because
of, but not limited to, the following: failure to settle within the Policy limit, or by reason of alleged or actual negligence, fraud or bad faith in rejecting an offer of settlement, in preparation of the defense, in the trial of any action against
its insured, reinsured, its insured’s or reinsured’s assignee or a third party claimant, or in the preparation or prosecution of an appeal consequent upon such action.

amount for which the Company would have been contractually liable to pay had it not been for the limits of the reinsured Policy. 
  

	 	3.	Coverage for Extra Contractual Obligations loss and/or Loss in Excess of Policy Limits shall not apply when such loss has been incurred due to an adjudicated finding of fraud committed by a member of the Board of

	 	a.	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 120 consecutive hours arising out

	 	c.	As regards earthquake (the epicenter of which need not necessarily be within the territorial confines referred to in the introductory portion of subparagraph 1) 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.” 


 

	 	d.	As regards “freeze,” only individual losses directly occasioned by collapse, breakage of glass, and water damage (including but not limited to those caused by freezing and/or melting of ice, snow or sleet, or
ice damming on a structure, or bursting of frozen pipes and tanks) may be included in the Company’s “Loss Occurrence.” 

  

	 	2.	Except for those “Loss Occurrences” referred to in subparagraph b 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 those loss occurrences referred to in subparagraph a above where only one such period of 120 consecutive hours will apply with respect to one event, regardless of the duration of the event. 


 

	 	3.	However, as respects those “Loss Occurrences” referred to in subparagraph b above, if the disaster, accident, or loss occasioned by the event is of greater duration than 96 consecutive hours, then
the Company may divide that disaster, accident, or loss into two or more “Loss Occurrences” provided 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. 

  

	 	4.	No individual losses occasioned by an event that would be covered by 96 hours or 120 hours clauses may be included in any “Loss Occurrence” claimed under the 168 hours provision. 


 

	E.	Policy

 “Ultimate Net Loss” shall mean the amount of any settlement,
award, or judgment paid by the Company or for which the Company has become liable to pay, including 1) Loss Adjustment Expense, 2) any pre-judgment interest that is included as part of an award or
judgment, and 3) 90% of Loss in Excess of Policy Limits, 90% of Extra Contractual Obligations, after making deductions for all recoveries, salvages, and subrogations, which are actually recovered, and all claims on inuring reinsurance, whether
collectible or not; provided, however, that in the event of the insolvency of the Company, payment by the Reinsurer shall be made in accordance with the provisions of the INSOLVENCY ARTICLE. In the event a verdict or judgment is reduced by an appeal
or a settlement, subsequent to the entry of the judgment, however, resulting in an ultimate saving on such verdict or judgment, or a judgment is reversed outright, the loss expense incurred in securing such final reduction or reversal shall be
prorated between the Reinsurers and the Company in the proportion that each benefits from such reduction or reversal. Nothing herein shall be construed to mean that losses under this Contract are not recoverable until the Company’s Ultimate Net
Loss has been ascertained. 
 ARTICLE V 

TERRITORY 
  

	The	territorial limits of this Contract shall be identical with those of the Company’s Policies. 


ARTICLE VI 
 EXCLUSIONS

  

	A.	This Contract does not apply to and specifically excludes the following: 

  

	 	1.	Liability assumed by the Company under any form of treaty reinsurance; however, all excess of loss reinsurance, business covered in accordance with paragraph B of the BUSINESS COVERED ARTICLE, group intra-company

	 	2.	All liability of the Company arising by contract, operation of law, or otherwise, from its participation or membership, whether voluntary or involuntary, in any insolvency fund. “Insolvency fund” includes any
guaranty fund, insolvency fund, plan, pool, association, fund, or other arrangement, howsoever denominated, established, or governed, that provides for any assessment of or payment or assumption by the Company of part or all of any claim, debt,
charge, fee, or other obligation of an insurer, or its successors or assigns, which has been declared by any competent authority to be insolvent, or which is otherwise deemed unable to meet any claim, debt, charge, fee, or other obligation in whole
or in part.

	 	3.	Loss caused directly or indirectly by war, whether or not declared, civil war, insurrection, rebellion, or revolution, or any act or condition incidental to any of the foregoing. This exclusion shall not apply to any
Policy that contains a standard war exclusion. 

  

	 	4.	Financial Guarantee coverage and/or similar coverage, however styled. 

  

	 	5.	Loss or liability excluded by the Nuclear Incident Exclusion Clauses – Physical Damage – Reinsurance and Nuclear Energy Risks Exclusion Clause (Reinsurance) (1994) (Worldwide excluding U.S.A. &

	B.	The exclusions enumerated in paragraph A above (except for subparagraphs 3 and 5) shall not apply when they are merely incidental to the main operations or exposures of the insured, provided such main
operations or exposures are also covered by the Company and are not themselves excluded from the scope of this Contract. The Company shall be the sole judge of what is “incidental.” 


 

	C.	If the Company is inadvertently bound or is unknowingly exposed (due to error, automatic provisions of policy coverage, or as imposed by law) on a risk otherwise excluded in paragraph A above (except for
subparagraphs 3 and 5), such exclusion shall be waived. The duration of said waiver shall not extend beyond the time that notice of such coverage has been received by a responsible underwriting authority of the Company plus the minimum time
thereafter for the Company to terminate such coverage or Policy. 

  

	D.	If the Company is required to accept an assigned risk, which conflicts with one or more of the exclusions set forth in paragraph A above (except for subparagraphs 3 and 5), this reinsurance shall apply, but up
to the limit required by the applicable statute or regulatory authority. 

  

	E.	Should any judicial or regulatory entity having jurisdiction invalidate any exclusion in or expand coverage of the Company’s Policy that is also the subject of one or more of the exclusions set forth in
paragraph A above (except for subparagraphs 3 and 5), then a loss for which the Company is liable because of such invalidation or expansion of coverage shall not be excluded hereunder.

FLORIDA HURRICANE CATASTROPHE FUND 
  

	A.	As respects Loss Occurrences subject to this Contract, any loss reimbursement recoverable by the Company under the Florida Hurricane Catastrophe Fund (FHCF), shall be deducted in determining Ultimate Net Loss under this
Contract, subject to the following: 

  

	 	1.	The full reimbursement amount due from the FHCF for coverage under the Mandatory Layer, based on statutory limits of coverage as of June 1, shall be deemed recovered by the Company, whether or not actually received
from the FHCF and whether or not reduced because of the FHCF’s inability to pay. 

  

	 	2.	Any other FHCF recoveries shall be disregarded for purposes of determining Ultimate Net Loss subject to this Contract. 

  

	 	3.	For purposes of allocating recoveries from the FHCF with respect to each Loss Occurrence, only amounts recoverable by applying the pay-out and retention multiples for the FHCF prior to any reduction in retention due to
multiple Loss Occurrences in the same annual period shall be included in calculating the deduction from Ultimate Net Loss. 

  

	 	4.	If the Company’s aggregate limit of FHCF reimbursement coverage is exhausted from Loss Occurrences commencing during the term of this Contract, and the FHCF does not designate the portion of said limit allocable to
each Loss Occurrence, the total FHCF reimbursement received shall be allocated to each individual Loss Occurrence in the proportion that the Company’s losses in that Loss Occurrence bear to the Company’s total losses arising out of all
Loss Occurrences to which the reimbursement applies. 

  

	B.	For purposes of loss recoveries under this Contract prior to the final determination of the Company’s retention and limit under the FHCF, FHCF coverage shall be calculated using the Company’s “Projected
Payout Multiple” under the FHCF. Upon determination of the Company’s retention and limit under the FHCF, losses will be adjusted, recognizing any adjustment to the “Projected Payout Multiple” caused by a change in the Aggregate
Mandatory FHCF Premium but disregarding any change due to a decrease in the statutory limit. 

  

	C.	Any FHCF reimbursement premiums paid by the Company for FHCF layers that inure to the benefit of this Contract shall be deemed to be premiums paid for inuring reinsurance. 


ARTICLE XI 
 OTHER
REINSURANCE

contesting and prevails in such action, the Company shall return such payment plus pay interest on same, at a rate calculated as per the provisions of paragraph A, above; however, such calculation is to begin from the actual date of remittance of
funds from the Reinsurer through the date the funds are returned.

collateral in the Trust Account only to the extent necessary to pay the Reinsurer’s Obligations for its share of actual and possible claims for each such Loss Occurrence as determined by the following procedure: 


 

	 	1.	If the parties hereto enter into a reinsurance agreement upon expiration of this Contract, for each such Loss Occurrence, the Ultimate Net Loss shall be determined as the aggregate of the following, as reflected on the

	 	b.	reserves for losses reported and outstanding; 

  

	 	c.	reserves for losses incurred but not reported; and 

  

	 	d.	reserves for Loss Adjustment Expense 

  

	 	2.	If the parties hereto do not enter into a reinsurance agreement upon expiration of this Contract, the Ultimate Net Loss for each such Loss Occurrence (if not otherwise finally determined pursuant to the terms of this
Contract) shall be deemed equal to the amount as determined in subparagraph (1) above measured as of the applicable determination date (as specified in Section E below), multiplied by a factor, based upon the number of months (with any partial
month rounded up to the nearest whole month) which have elapsed on such determination date since expiration of the Contract, as follows: 

  

	 	a.	From 0 to 12 months from expiration of the Contract, 150%, else;

	 	d.	From 37 to 67 months from expiration of the Contract, 100%. 

 As of 67 months after expiration
of this Contract (the “Reporting Period”), the amount determined in subparagraph (1) above for such date shall be considered the definitive Ultimate Net Loss for each such Loss Occurrence for which and the Company and the Reinsurer
agree to commute this Contract with final settlement on that basis.

	E.	The procedure for determining the amount of collateral required to pay the Reinsurer’s Obligations for its share of actual and possible claims, described in subparagraphs D(1) and D(2) above, shall be followed each
and every time, in the opinion of the Company, there are materially new estimates regarding its losses, and each quarter-end, until all the Reinsurer’s Obligations have been extinguished or the Reporting Period is over, whichever is earlier.
Furthermore, the information to be used for the determinations described in D(1) and D(2) above shall be as reflected on the Company’s official books and records. Furthermore if so requested by the Reinsurer, the Company shall provide the
information listed in D(1) and D(2) above, broken down into subsections (a)-(d) and accompanied by a written explanation of its estimates within seven Business Days of such request. 


 

	F.	The Company agrees to release from the Trust Account all collateral in excess of the amount required to pay the Reinsurer’s Obligations for its share of actual and possible claims, as determined by the above
procedure, within seven Business Days of the date of such determination. “Business Day” shall be defined as a day (other than a Saturday or a Sunday) on which banks are open for commercial business in Hamilton, Bermuda, and in New York,
New York, U.S.A. 

  

	G.	In the event that collateral has been released from the Trust Account, but at a later date it is determined by the procedure above that such collateral should be present in the Trust Account, the Reinsurer shall, within
10 Business Days of such determination, deposit additional assets until the Trust Account balance is equal to the amount of actual and possible claims; however, the Reinsurer shall never be liable to deposit assets in the Trust Account in excess of
its Obligations as defined above. If the Trust Account is funded and maintained and the Trust Agreement is performed according to the terms and conditions of this Contract and the Trust Agreement, the Company agrees and acknowledges that there shall
only be recourse to the Segregated Account assets, and in the event of the exhaustion of the Segregated Account assets there shall be no recourse by any party for any claims, payments, other expenses or fees whatsoever, howsoever arising pursuant to
this Contract, to the assets which are allocated to any other segregated account of the Reinsurer or to the general account of the Reinsurer. 

  

	H.	At the end of the Reporting Period, the Reinsurer’s Obligations for its share of all claims will be settled based on losses and Loss Adjustment Expense paid by the Company up to that point, and the case reserves
for losses reported and outstanding plus reserves for Loss Adjustment Expense and losses incurred but not reported at that point, upon which the Company agrees to terminate the Trust Account, and all remaining security will be released and all
liability under this Contract will be extinguished. The value of the outstanding losses, losses incurred but not reported and Loss Adjustment Expense shall be mutually agreed, or failing agreement, the final determination of all liabilities
hereunder shall be referred to Arbitration. Following the above procedures, the Reinsurer and the Company agree to commute this Contract.

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 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 proportionate share of the benefit that may accrue to the Company
solely as a result of the defense undertaken by the Reinsurer.

such expense had been incurred by the Company. 

  

	C.	It is further 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 its liquidator, receiver, conservator, or
statutory successor, except as otherwise provided by Section 4118(a) (relating to Fidelity and Surety Risks) and Section 1114(c) (relating to physical damage) of the Insurance Law of New York 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 payee under such Policies and in substitution for the obligations of the Company to such payees. Then, and in that event only, the Company, with the prior approval by the Superintendent of Insurance of the State
of New York of the Certificate of Assumption on New York risks, is entirely released from its obligation and the Reinsurers shall pay any loss directly to payees under such policies. 


 

	D.	In the event of the insolvency of any company or companies listed in the designation of “Company” under this Contract, this Article shall apply only to the insolvent company or companies. 


 

	E.	In the event of the insolvency of any company or companies covered hereunder, the laws of the applicable domiciliary state(s) shall apply. In the event of a conflict between any provision of this Article and the laws of
the domiciliary state of any company or companies covered hereunder, that domiciliary state’s laws shall prevail. 


ARTICLE XXXII 
 ARBITRATION

  

	A.	As a condition precedent to any right of action hereunder, any irreconcilable dispute arising out of the interpretation, performance, or breach of this Contract, including the formation or validity thereof, whether
arising before or after the expiry or termination of the Contract, shall be submitted for decision to a panel of three arbitrators. Notice requesting arbitration shall be in writing and sent by certified mail, return receipt requested, or such
reputable courier service as is capable of returning proof of receipt of such notice by the recipient to the party demanding arbitration. 

  

	B.	Notwithstanding the provisions of the foregoing paragraph, the Company shall have the option to either litigate or arbitrate any dispute in which the Reinsurer makes any allegation of misrepresentation, non-disclosure,
concealment, fraud or bad faith and/or where the Reinsurer has experienced a Special Termination Event, as defined in the SPECIAL TERMINATION AND OTHER REMEDIES ARTICLE.

	C.	One arbitrator shall be appointed by each party. If the responding party fails to appoint its arbitrator within 30 days after its receipt of the claimant party’s notice requesting arbitration, the claimant
party, after 10 days’ notice by certified mail or reputable courier as provided above of its intention to do so, may appoint the second arbitrator. 

  

	D.	The two arbitrators shall, before instituting the hearing, appoint an impartial third arbitrator who shall preside at the hearing. Should the two arbitrators fail to choose the third arbitrator within 30 days of
the appointment of the second arbitrator, the parties shall appoint the third arbitrator pursuant to the AIDA Reinsurance and Insurance Arbitration Society – U.S. (ARIAS) Umpire Selection Procedure. All arbitrators shall be disinterested active
or former senior executives of insurance or reinsurance companies or Underwriters at Lloyd’s, London. In the event of the resignation or death of any arbitrator, a replacement shall be appointed in the same manner as the resigning or deceased
arbitrator was appointed and the newly constituted panel shall take all necessary and/or reasonable measures to continue the arbitration proceedings without additional delay. 


 

	E.	Within 30 days after notice of appointment of all arbitrators, the panel shall meet and determine timely periods for briefs, discovery procedures and schedules for hearings. The panel shall be relieved of all
judicial formality and shall not be bound by the strict rules of procedure and evidence. Unless the panel agrees otherwise, arbitration shall take place in Clearwater, Florida, but the venue may be changed when deemed by the panel to be in the best
interest of the arbitration proceeding. Insofar as the arbitration panel looks to substantive law, it shall consider the law of the State of Florida. The decision of any two arbitrators when rendered in writing shall be final and binding. The panel
is empowered to grant interim relief as it may deem appropriate. 

  

	F.	The panel shall make its decision as promptly as possible following the termination of the hearings, considering the terms and conditions expressed in this Contract and the custom and practice of the applicable
insurance and reinsurance business. Judgment upon the award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. 

  

	G.	If more than one Reinsurer is involved in arbitration where there are common questions of law or fact and a possibility of conflicting awards or inconsistent results, 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 the one party; provided, however, that nothing therein 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 under the terms of this Contract from several to joint. 

  

	H.	Each party shall bear the expense of the arbitrator selected by or for it and shall jointly and equally bear with the other party the cost of the third arbitrator. The remaining costs of the arbitration shall be
allocated by the panel. The panel may, at its discretion, award such further costs and expenses as it considers appropriate, including but not limited to attorneys fees, to the extent permitted by law.

against it upon this Contract, and shall abide by the final decision of such court or of any appellate court in the event of an appeal. The validity and/or enforceability of any arbitration award or judgment obtained in the United States shall
