 REWRITTEN EFFECTIVE JANUARY 1, 1987 
 REINSURANCE POOLING AGREEMENT 
  
 This Agreement made by and between Employers Mutual Casualty Company and
certain of its affiliated or subsidiary companies such as are signatory hereto by means of exhibits setting forth the interests and liabilities of the parties, attached hereto and made a part of this Agreement. Employers Mutual Casualty Company is
hereinafter referred to as “EMC”, and the other companies signatory hereto are hereinafter referred to as the “Affiliated Companies” or as the “Affiliated Company”, as the context requires. 
  
 EMC and each Affiliated Company signatory to the Pooling Agreement agree to
honor the terms set forth herein as if this Agreement were solely between EMC and each such Affiliated Company. Balances payable to or recoverable from EMC and any such Affiliated Company shall not serve to offset any balances payable to or
recoverable from any other Affiliated Company signatory to this Agreement. Reports and remittances between EMC and each Affiliated Company shall be in sufficient detail to identify the individual premium and loss obligation of each party to the
other. 
  
 ARTICLE I 
  
 The Companies are engaged in the insurance business and maintain a mutual
business relationship having certain incidents of common management, and desire to bring about for each other added economies of operation, uniform underwriting results, diversification as respects the classes of insurance business written, and
maximization of capacity. To accomplish the aforesaid, the Companies do by means of this Agreement, pool all of their insurance business then in force as of 12:01 A.M. of the date signatory hereto, and thereafter to share in the fortunes of their
pooled insurance business.

to EMC all liabilities incurred under or in connections with all contracts and policies of insurance issued by the Affiliated Company outstanding and in force as of 12:01 A.M. of the date signatory hereto, or thereafter issued by it. Such
liabilities shall include the Affiliated Company’s reserves for unearned premiums, outstanding losses and loss expenses (including unreported losses) and all other underwriting and administrative expenses as evidenced by the Affiliated
Company’s books and records, but shall not include inter-company balances, liabilities for Corporate Taxes including Federal or State Income Taxes, or liabilities incurred in connection with their respective investment transactions. 

 
 ARTICLE III 
  
 The Affiliated Company hereby assigns and transfers to EMC all right, title
and interest in and to reinsurance outstanding and in force with respect to the liabilities reinsured by EMC under Article II hereof. 
  









 ARTICLE IV 
  
 The Affiliated Company assigns and transfers to EMC amounts equal to the aggregate of all of its liabilities reinsured by
EMC under Article II hereof, less a commission allowance equal to the prepaid expenses of the Affiliated Company but not in excess of 40 percent of the Affiliated Company’s combined ratio on a trade basis. Prepaid expenses is defined as those
expenses records in column 2, part 4, of the Underwriting and Expense Exhibit of the Affiliated Company’s convention statement. The trade combined ratio is the ratio of loss and loss adjustment expense to earned premium, plus the ratio of
underwriting expenses to premiums written. 
  
 ARTICLE V

  
 The Affiliated Company hereby reinsures, and EMC hereby
cedes and transfers to the Affiliated Company a portion of its net liabilities under all contracts and policies of insurance (including those reinsured by EMC under Article II hereof) on which EMC is subject to liability and which are outstanding
and in force as of 12:01 A.M. of the date signatory hereto, or are issued thereafter, in accordance with the exhibit attached hereto to which the Affiliated Company is a signatory party. Such liabilities shall include reserves for unearned premiums,
outstanding losses and loss expenses (including unreported losses) and all other underwriting and administrative expenses, but shall not include inter-company balances, liabilities for Corporate Taxes including Federal or State Income Taxes, or
liabilities in connection with investment transactions. 
  
 ARTICLE VI 
  
 EMC hereby assigns and
transfers to the Affiliated Company amounts equal to the aggregate of all liabilities of EMC reinsured by the Affiliated Company under contracts and policies of insurance which are outstanding and in force as of 12:01 A.M. of the date signatory
hereto under Article V hereof, less a commission allowance equal to the prepaid expenses of EMC but not in excess of 40 percent of EMC’s combined ratio on a trade basis. Prepaid expenses is defined as those expenses recorded in column 2, part
4, of the Underwriting and Expense Exhibit of EMC’s convention statement. The trade combined ratio is the ratio of loss and loss adjustment expense to earned premium, plus the ratio of underwriting expenses to premiums written. 
  
 ARTICLE VII 
  
 EMC agrees to pay to the Affiliated Company it respective participation of
all premiums written by the companies after first deducting premiums on all reinsurance ceded to reinsurers (other than the parties hereto). Similarly, it is further agreed that all losses, loss expense and other underwriting and administrative
expenses (with the exceptions noted in Articles II and V hereof) of the companies, less all losses and expense recovered and recoverable under reinsurance ceded to reinsurers (other than the parties hereto), shall be pro-rated between the parties on
the basis of their respective participation as reflected in the aforesaid exhibit. 
  









 ARTICLE VIII 
  
 The obligation of the companies under this Agreement to exchange reinsurance between themselves may be offset by reciprocal
obligation so that the net amount only shall be required to be transferred, except no offset shall be valid under circumstances prohibited by Section 7472, New York Insurance Laws. An accounting on all transactions shall be rendered quarterly, and
the settling of balances shall be made within 30 days after the rendering of the quarterly reports. Except as otherwise required by the context of this Agreement, the amount of all payments between the companies under this Agreement shall be
determined on the basis of the convention form of annual statements of the companies. Notwithstanding anything herein contained, this Agreement shall not apply to the investment operations of the companies. 
  
 ARTICLE IX 
  
 The conditions of reinsurance hereunder shall in all cases be identical with
the conditions of the original insurance or as changed during the term of insurance.

 This
Agreement is a continuing one and is unlimited as to duration but may be terminated upon mutual consent or by 30 day prior written notice by either party. 
  
 ARTICLE XI 
  
 Each of the companies hereto, as the assuming insurer, hereby agrees that all reinsurance made, ceded, renewed or otherwise becoming effective under this
Agreement shall be payable by the assuming insurer on the basis of the liability of the ceding insurer under the policy or contract reinsured without diminution because of insolvency of the ceding insurer; provided that such reinsurance shall be
payable directly to the ceding insurer or to its liquidator, receiver or other statutory successor, except as provided by Section 4118 of New York Insurance Law or except (a) where the contract specifically provides another payee for such
reinsurance in the event of the insolvency of the ceding insurer and (b) where the assuming insurer, with consent of the direct insured or insureds, has assumed such policy obligations of the ceding insurer as direct obligations of the assuming
insurer to the payees under such policies and in substitution for the obligations of the ceding insurer to such payee; and further provided that the liquidator, receiver or statutory successor of the ceding insurer shall give written notice of the
pendency of any claim against the insolvent ceding insurer on the policy or contract reinsured within a reasonable time after such claim; and the assuming insurer may investigate such claim and interpose, at its own expense, in the proceeding where
such claim is to be adjudicated any defense or defenses which it may deem available to the ceding insurer or it liquidator, receiver or statutory successor, the expense thus incurred by the assuming insurer to be chargeable, subject to court
approval against the insolvent ceding insurer as part of the expense of liquidation to the extent of proportionate share of the benefit which may accrue to the ceding insurer solely as a result of the defense undertaken by the assuming insurer.

  
 ARTICLE XII 
  
 Each party shall allow the other party to inspect, at reasonable times, the
records of the Company relevant to the business reinsured under this Agreement, including files concerning claims, losses, or legal proceedings which involve or are likely to involve the other party. 
  









 ARTICLE XIII

arbitrators and an umpire, meeting in Des Moines, Iowa, unless otherwise agreed. 

  

	B.	The members of the board of arbitration shall be active or retired disinterested officials of insurance or reinsurance companies. Each party shall appoint its arbitrator and the two
arbitrators shall choose an umpire before instituting the hearing. If the respondent fails to appoint its arbitrator within four weeks after being requested to do so by the claimant, the latter shall also appoint the second arbitrator. If the two
arbitrators fail to agree upon the appointment of an umpire within four weeks after their nominations, each of them shall name three, of whom the other shall decline two and the decision shall be made by drawing lots. 

  

	C.	The claimant shall submit its initial brief within 20 days from appointment of the umpire. The respondent shall submit its brief within 20 days after receipt of the claimant’s
brief and the claimant may submit a reply brief within 10 days after receipt of the respondent’s brief. 

  

	D.	The board shall make its decision with regard to the custom and usage of the insurance and reinsurance business. The board shall issue its decision in writing based upon a hearing
in which evidence may be introduced without following strict rules of evidence but in which cross examination and rebuttal shall be allowed. The board shall make its decision within 60 days following the termination of the hearings unless the
parties consent to an extension. The majority decision of the board shall be final and binding upon all parties to the proceeding. Judgment may be entered upon the award of the board in any court having jurisdiction thereof.


  

	E.	Each party shall bear the expense of its own arbitrator and shall jointly and equally bear with the other party the expense of the umpire. The remaining costs of the arbitration
proceedings shall be allocated by the board. 

  
 ARTICLE XIV 
  
 By execution of this
Agreement, the parties hereto simultaneously terminate any and all reinsurance agreements by and between them heretofore existing, upon the understanding that this Agreement shall supersede and exist in substitution for any such prior agreements.

pursuant to Article V of this Agreement, such as the sale, dissolution or suspension of business of an Affiliated Company (in which case not less than twelve (12) months advance written notice must be given to each participating company of any
company’s intent to terminate its participation in the Agreement), or the acquisition by (or affiliation with) EMC of a subsidiary or affiliated company which desires to become a signatory to the Agreement; provided, however, that this

or any Affiliated Company; provided further, however, that during a Renewal Term EMC or any Affiliated Company may terminate its participation in the Agreement effective January 1st of any year by providing at least twelve (12) months written notice to EMC and to each Affiliated Company of such company’s intent to terminate its
participation in the Agreement.

 ARTICLE XVIII 
  
 In the event that one of the Affiliated Companies becomes

on a pro rata basis, so as to collectively absorb or assume in full the assumed portion of the net liabilities of EMC which would otherwise be the responsibility of such impaired Affiliated Company, but for the impairment. In the event that EMC
becomes insolvent or is otherwise subject to liquidation or receivership proceedings, the Affiliated Companies shall, on a pro rata basis, assume the remaining net liabilities of EMC which they had not previously assumed so that, collectively, they
are assuming 100% of the net liabilities of EMC. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, no change in either EMC’s net retained portion of its net liabilities or any Affiliated Company’s assumed portion of the net liabilities of EMC shall
occur until EMC and the Affiliated Companies shall have complied with all regulatory requirements applicable to such change(s) under the laws of the states in which EMC or any of the Affiliated Companies are domiciled.
