 (i) If the ratio of Losses Incurred to Premiums Earned is [**]% or less, the Adjusted
Commission Rate for the applicable adjustment period shall be the Provisional Commission Rate plus [**]% of Premiums Earned. Such amount shall be the maximum commission allowed the General Agent for Adjusted Commission. 
 (ii) If the ratio of Losses Incurred to Premiums Earned is more than [**]%, but not greater than [**]%, the Adjusted Commission Rate for
the applicable adjustment period shall be the Provisional Commission Rate, plus [**]% of the difference in percentage points between [**]% and the actual ratio of Losses Incurred to Premiums Earned. 
 (iii) If the ratio of Losses Incurred to Premiums Earned is greater than [**]%, but not greater than [**]%, the Adjusted Commission Rate
for the applicable adjustment period shall be the Provisional Commission Rate, less [**]% of the difference in percentage points between [**]% and the actual ratio of Losses Incurred to Premiums Earned. 
 (iv) If the ratio of Losses Incurred to Premiums Earned is [**]% or greater, the Adjusted Commission Rate for the applicable adjustment
period shall be the Provisional Commission Rate less [**]% of Premiums Earned. Such amount shall be the minimum commission allowed the General Agent for Adjusted Commission.

 (f) If the ratio of Losses Incurred to Premiums Earned for any adjustment period is less than [**]%, the difference in percentage points between [**]% and the actual ratio of Losses Incurred to Premiums Earned shall be multiplied by

30 days following [**] months after the inception of this Commission Schedule and shall continue to update the adjusted commission calculation within 30 days after the end of each 12 month period thereafter until all losses subject hereto have been
fully settled. Commission adjustment calculations shall be made for each new adjustment period that follows the first adjustment period and calculations for each new adjustment period shall be made consistent with the calculations made for the first
adjustment period. Annual calculations for each adjustment period shall be based on cumulative transactions under the Agreement and this Commission Schedule from the beginning of the adjustment period under consideration through the effective date
of adjustment, including, as respects Losses Incurred, any debit or credit from the preceding adjustment period. Such annual calculations for each adjustment period shall be calculated separately as described above. The aggregate difference between
the Adjusted Commissions owed and the commissions previously allowed by Company for all adjustment periods shall be remitted in accordance with the following deferral schedule by the owing Party to the other Party within 30 days following receipt of
Company’s report. Adjusted Commissions owed as a result of the first calculation for each adjustment period will be deferred at a rate of [**]%. The deferred Adjusted Commissions shall be paid to General Agent or used to set off sums owed by
General Agent, as applicable, for the subsequent adjustment period. Adjusted Commissions owed as a result of subsequent calculations for an adjustment period following the first calculation will not be deferred. 
 (i) As used in this Commission Schedule, “Losses Incurred” means losses and Loss Adjustment Expenses paid as of the effective date of
calculation of the Adjusted Commission Rate, plus the reserves for losses and Loss Adjustment Expenses outstanding as of such date, minus amounts due from Excess of Loss Reinsurance (whether or not recoverable), plus the debit or
minus the credit, if any, from the preceding adjustment period, and shall include a provision for incurred but not reported reserves (IBNR) as calculated by Company’s actuary and agreed upon by General Agent. If mutual agreement cannot
be reached, an independent actuary will be retained, whose cost will be equally shared between the parties. All losses and related Loss Adjustment Expenses under Policies with effective or renewal dates during an adjustment period shall be charged
to that adjustment period, regardless of the date said losses actually occur. 
 (j) As used in this Commission Schedule, “Premiums
Earned” means Net Written Premium for Policies with effective or renewal dates during the adjustment period, less the unearned portion thereof, and less the amounts incurred by Company for Excess of Loss Reinsurance as of the
effective date of calculation of the Adjusted Commission Rate, and shall include only Net Written Premium reported by General Agent and collected by Company. Premiums Earned shall not include any Installment Billing Fees, allowed or not allowed
under the Agreement. For purposes of the calculation of Adjusted Commissions for an adjustment period, Premiums Earned for such adjustment period shall be reduced by the premiums paid for Excess of Loss Reinsurance covering such adjustment period.

the future. General Agent will pay estimated premium tax at [**]% of Net Written Premium, which may be adjusted from time to time. The estimated premium tax rates shall be adjusted annually to an actual rate. If such adjustment is less than [**]%
then Company shall remit such amount to General Agent. If such adjustment is greater than [**]% then General Agent shall remit such amount to Company.

applicable premium taxes on the subject fees as described in this Commission Schedule.
