 EXHIBIT 10.1 

AMENDED AND RESTATED 

ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES AGREEMENT 

This AMENDED AND RESTATED ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES AGREEMENT is dated as of December 31, 2010 (this “Agreement”),
and is between BUSINESS STAFFING, INC., a Delaware corporation (“Business Staffing”) and KAISER VENTURES LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Kaiser LLC”). Kaiser and Business Staffing are sometimes
collectively referred to in this Agreement as “Parties” or individually as a “Party.” 

WHEREAS, Kaiser LLC is the successor to Kaiser Ventures Inc. (“Kaiser Inc.”) as the result of the merger of Kaiser
Inc. into Kaiser LLC, and, as a result of the merger, Kaiser LLC is engaged in the business previously conducted by Kaiser Inc.; and 
 WHEREAS, Kaiser LLC engaged Business Staffing to provide administrative services to Kaiser LLC and its subsidiaries and Business Staffing has been providing such services since January 1,
2002, pursuant to the terms of that certain Administrative Services Agreement dated December 3, 2001 (the “Original Administrative Services Agreement”). 
 WHEREAS, the Parties desire by this Agreement to amend and restate the Original Administrative Services Agreement to, among other things, better reflect the manner in which services have been
provided and will continue to be provided and how payment for such services will continue to be made. 
 NOW, THEREFORE,
in consideration of the foregoing, and the respective covenants and agreement of the parties contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby
agree as follows:

 (7) Any and all other staffing and related services reasonably necessary for the operation of the business of Kaiser LLC. 
 (b) NOTICE OF CHANGE IN DESIRED SERVICES. Kaiser
LLC shall provide Business Staffing with 90 days advance notice of its intent to terminate any services being provided by Business Staffing hereunder, unless a shorter period is agreed to by Business Staffing. Business Staffing and Kaiser LLC shall
mutually agree to any new services to be provided by Business Staffing. 
 2. MANNER OF
PROVIDING SERVICES. In providing the services outlined in Section 1 of this Agreement, it is understood and agreed that Business Staffing will provide all staffing or arrange for independent contractors as it
deems necessary to provide the services, but may contract with any other third party to provide such services to Kaiser LLC. In the event Business Staffing so contracts with any other third party, the third party shall be bound to the same standard
of care as imposed on Business Staffing under Section 6 hereof. 
 3. MANAGEMENT
POLICY. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the property, funds, affairs, and the management of the business of Kaiser LLC shall continue to be the responsibility of the Board of Managers of Kaiser LLC. With respect to the day-to-day
operations of Kaiser LLC, Business Staffing shall be guided by and adhere to any policies established by the Board of Managers of Kaiser LLC in performing the services outlined herein. 

4. REIMBURSEMENT OF COSTS. 

(a) DETERMINATION OF COSTS.
As compensation for the services provided by Business Staffing hereunder, Kaiser LLC shall, on a monthly basis, reimburse Business Staffing for costs associated with such services in the following manner: 

(i) Kaiser LLC shall reimburse Business Staffing an amount equal to all actual expenses of any nature or kind, as they may change
from time to time, related to the provision of services hereunder, which shall include, but not be limited to, an amount equivalent to the compensation paid whether the personnel are paid on an hourly rate, paid a salary or a lump-sum, any bonuses,
the cost of all benefits that may be provided including the employer’s portion of the premiums for medical insurance, vision insurance , dental insurance, life insurance, long or short-term disability programs and insurance, the costs of other
health and welfare benefits that may be provided, employer contributions to qualified and non-qualified retirement and other similar plans, the employer’s share of any federal, state or local taxes, vacation pay, severance compensation, expense

out-of-pocket expenses that are incurred by Business Staffing directly or indirectly in connection with providing staffing and services hereunder but which are not included as part of Personnel Costs (the “Direct Expenses”). If and
to the extent Business Staffing contracts with a third party for the provision of any services hereunder, Kaiser LLC shall reimburse Business Staffing for the reasonable amounts charged to Business Staffing by such third party. 

  
 2 

 The Personnel Costs and Direct Expenses are hereinafter collectively referred to as the
“Cost of Services.” The Cost of Services billed by Business Staffing and paid by Kaiser shall be actual costs without mark-up or profit margin.

a good faith estimate of one month’s Costs of Services for January 2011 (the “Kaiser Deposit”) which may be used by Business Staffing to pay for the Cost of Services. Thereafter, on a monthly basis, Business Staffing will
submit to Kaiser LLC a statement setting forth the amount due for the Cost of Services paid or incurred by Business Staffing during the previous month and reconciling any amounts paid during such month from the Kaiser Deposit. Kaiser LLC shall pay
to Business Staffing the amount set forth on each monthly statement within 10 days after receipt of the statement. In the event of the termination of this Agreement, Business Staffing shall refund any amount remaining out of the Kaiser Deposit,
without interest, after paying any Costs of Services then remaining or that accrued for future payment. The payment of the Kaiser Deposit shall not relieve Kaiser LLC from any liability to pay all Cost of Services required under this Agreement. In
the event it becomes necessary, in addition to the monthly billing, Business Staffing may provide from time to time a supplemental bill to Kaiser LLC for the Cost of Services. 
 (d) INTEREST ON DELINQUENT PAYMENTS. If Kaiser LLC fails to pay to Business Staffing any amount payable under
subsection (b) above when due, Kaiser LLC shall pay to Business Staffing interest on the overdue amount of 0.75% per month , for the period beginning when the amount was due and ending when the amount is actually paid. 

5. BOOKS AND RECORDS. Business Staffing shall maintain adequate accounting records
that fairly reflect the Costs of Services in reasonable detail. Business Staffing shall also maintain a system of internal controls sufficient to provide reasonable assurances that the services are provided in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement, and that the Costs of Services are properly allocated to Kaiser LLC. All books and accounts maintained by Business Staffing applicable to the performance of its obligations hereunder shall at all reasonable times be open to inspection by
Kaiser LLC, and its auditors and other representatives. 
 6. STANDARD OF CARE;
INDEMNIFICATION. 
 (a) In performing the services hereunder, Business Staffing and its employees and
agents shall perform their duties in a manner reasonably believed by them to be in the best interest of Kaiser LLC, and Business Staffing shall be subject always to the control of the Board of Managers of Kaiser LLC as to matters of Kaiser LLC
company policy. Business Staffing shall perform the services hereunder with such care as an ordinarily prudent person in a like position would use under similar circumstances. Neither Business Staffing nor its officers, directors, employees or
agents shall be liable to Kaiser LLC for any liability or loss suffered by Kaiser LLC as a result of any action or omission by Business Staffing or its officers, directors, or employees in 

  
 3 

 
performing the services hereunder, except that Business Staffing shall be liable to Kaiser LLC to the extent, but only to the extent, of any direct, as opposed to consequential damages suffered
by Kaiser LLC which are caused by the willful misconduct or negligence of Business Staffing or its officers, directors, employees, or agents, or by a material and continuing default by Business Staffing of its obligations hereunder. 

(b) Kaiser LLC agrees to indemnify and hold Business Staffing, and its officers, directors, employees and agents, harmless from all
liabilities, costs and damages, including reasonable legal fees, arbitration or litigation and court costs arising from or in connection with Business Staffing’s performance of services on behalf of Kaiser LLC, provided, that Business Staffing
has satisfied its standard of care as set forth in paragraph (a) of this Section 6. In furtherance of its obligations under this subsection (b), Kaiser LLC shall maintain, at its sole expense, insurance coverage for the officers, employees
and agents of Business Staffing, in such amounts and on such terms as are comparable to directors and officers liability insurance maintained by Kaiser LLC. 
 7. INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR STATUS. Business Staffing and its employees and agents shall be deemed to be independent contractors with full control over
the manner and method of performance hereunder, except as otherwise provided in Section 3 hereof. During the term of this Agreement, any of the employees or agents of Business Staffing which are rendering services on behalf of Kaiser LLC
hereunder, shall remain employees or agents, as the case may be, of Business Staffing, and shall continue to be paid by Business Staffing or its agents, as the case may be, and to enjoy the benefits to which they are entitled as employees of
Business Staffing or agents, as the case may be, unless otherwise provided in any separate agreement covering any of the services of such employee. 
 8. SEPARATE ENTITIES. Business Staffing and Kaiser LLC are separate entities, and nothing in this Agreement or otherwise shall be construed to create
any rights or liabilities of any Party hereto for any rights, privileges, duties or liabilities of any other Party hereto, except to the extent otherwise provided herein or in any other agreement among the parties hereto.

(b) TERMINATION. The Term of this Agreement may be

	G.	In no event shall coverage be provided to the extent not permitted under law. 

 ARTICLE 15 
 NET RETAINED LIABILITY 

 

	A.	This Contract applies only to that portion of any loss that the Company retains net for its own account (prior to deduction of any reinsurance that inures solely to the
benefit of the Company). 

  

	B.	The amount of the Reinsurer’s liability hereunder in respect of any loss or losses shall not be increased by reason of the inability of the Company to collect from
any other reinsurer(s), whether specific or general, any amounts that may have become due from such reinsurer(s), whether such inability arises from the insolvency of such other reinsurer(s) or otherwise. 

ARTICLE 16

expense of the Reinsurer, in the defense of any claim, suit or proceeding involving this Contract, and the Company and the

	  	14 of 36	  	DOC: December 23, 2010

 

 

  

	 	 
Reinsurer shall cooperate in every respect in the defense of such claim, suit or proceeding. Notwithstanding the above, the Company alone and at its full discretion shall adjust, settle or
compromise all claims and losses. 

  

	B.	As respects losses subject to this Contract, all loss settlements made by the Company, whether under strict Policy terms or by way of compromise, and any Extra
Contractual Obligations and/or Loss in Excess of Policy Limits, shall be binding upon the Reinsurer, and the Reinsurer agrees to pay or allow, as the case may be, its share of each such settlement in accordance with this Contract.

 ARTICLE 19 
 COMMUTATION 
  

	A.	As respects all losses, known or unknown, that may cause a claim under this Contract, the losses shall be commuted two years after the expiration date of this Contract.
As promptly as possible after such date, the Company shall submit a statement of valuation of the outstanding claim or claims showing the elements considered reasonable to establish the commutation amount, and, if the Reinsurer concurs with the
Company’s calculation, it shall promptly pay the amount requested. 

  

	B.	If the parties fail to agree on the commutation amount determined under paragraph A above, they shall settle any difference by mutually selecting an actuary to
determine the commutation amount. If the parties cannot agree on a single actuary within 15 days after the Reinsurer’s notice that it does not concur with the Company’s statement of valuation, the parties shall settle the difference by
using a panel of three actuaries. In that event, each party shall appoint an actuary within 30 days after receipt of the written request for commutation. Upon such appointment, the two actuaries shall appoint a third actuary. If the two actuaries
fail to agree on the selection of a third actuary within 30 days of their appointment, each of them shall name three individuals, of whom the other shall decline two, and the decision shall be made by drawing lots. The actuary or actuaries shall
then investigate and capitalize such loss(es). All actuaries shall be fellows of the Casualty Actuarial Society or the American Academy of Actuaries, and shall be disinterested in the outcome of the commutation. 

 

	C.	The Reinsurer’s proportion of the amount so determined shall be considered the Reinsurer’s total liability for the losses, and the Reinsurer shall pay the
commutation amount promptly after execution by both parties of a commutation and release agreement. Payment of the commutation amount by the Reinsurer, and acceptance of that payment by the Company, shall constitute a complete release of both
parties from all further liability hereunder.

and may exercise, at any time, the right to offset any balance or balances due the other (or, if more than one, any other). Such offset may include balances due under this Contract and any other contracts heretofore or hereafter entered into between
the parties regardless of whether such balances arise from premiums, losses, maintenance fees, or otherwise, and regardless of capacity of any party, whether as assuming insurer and/or ceding insurer, under the various contracts involved, provided,

ARTICLE 21 
 SALVAGE

from any loss to arrive at the amount of liability attaching hereunder.

settlement, and all necessary adjustments shall be made by the parties hereto.

	B.	The Company agrees, in respect of its Policies or bonds falling within the scope of this Contract, that when it files with its insurance regulatory authority, or sets
up on its books liabilities as required by law, it shall forward to the Reinsurer a statement showing the proportion of such liabilities applicable to the Reinsurer. The “Reinsurer’s Obligations” shall be defined as follows:

  

	 	1.	unearned premium (if applicable); 

  

	 	2.	known outstanding losses that have been reported to the Reinsurer and Loss Adjustment Expense relating thereto; 

 

	 	3.	losses and Loss Adjustment Expense paid by the Company but not recovered from the Reinsurer; 

 

	 	4.	losses incurred but not reported and Loss Adjustment Expense relating thereto; 

 

	 	5.	all other amounts for which the Company cannot take credit on its financial statements unless funding is provided by the Reinsurer. 

 

	C.	The Reinsurer’s Obligations shall be funded by funds withheld, cash advances, Trust Agreement or a Letter of Credit (LOC). The Reinsurer shall have the option of
determining the method of funding provided it is acceptable to the insurance regulatory authorities having jurisdiction over the Company’s reserves. 

  

	D.	When funding by Trust Agreement, the Reinsurer shall ensure that the Trust Agreement complies with the provisions of the “Trust Agreement Requirements Clause”
attached hereto. When funding by an LOC, the Reinsurer agrees to apply for and secure timely delivery to the Company of a clean, irrevocable and unconditional LOC issued by a bank and containing provisions acceptable to the insurance regulatory
authorities having jurisdiction over the Company’s reserves in an amount equal to the Reinsurer’s Obligations. Such LOC shall be issued for a period of not less than one year, and shall be automatically extended for one year from its date
of expiration or any future expiration date unless 30 days (or such other time period as may be required by insurance regulatory authorities), prior to any expiration date the issuing bank shall notify the Company by certified or registered
mail that the issuing bank elects not to consider the LOC extended for any additional period. 

  

	E.	The Reinsurer and the Company agree that any funding provided by the Reinsurer pursuant to the provisions of this Contract may be drawn upon at any time,
notwithstanding any other provision of this Contract, and be utilized by the Company or any successor, by operation of law, of the Company including, without limitation, any liquidator, rehabilitator, receiver or conservator of the Company, for the
following purposes, unless otherwise provided for in a separate Trust Agreement: 

  

	 	1.	to reimburse the Company for the Reinsurer’s Obligations, the payment of which is due under the terms of this Contract and that has not been otherwise paid;

  

					
	 Effective: October 1, 2010

U4VT0004
	  	17 of 36	  	DOC: December 23, 2010

 

 

  

  

	 	2.	to make refund of any sum that is in excess of the actual amount required to pay the Reinsurer’s Obligations under this Contract (or in excess of 102% of the
Reinsurer’s Obligations, if funding is provided by a Trust Agreement); 

  

	 	3.	to fund an account with the Company for the Reinsurer’s Obligations. Such cash deposit shall be held in an interest bearing account separate from the
Company’s other assets, and interest thereon not in excess of the prime rate shall accrue to the benefit of the Reinsurer. Any taxes payable on accrued interest shall be paid out of the assets in the account that are in excess of the
Reinsurer’s Obligations (or in excess of 102% of the Reinsurer’s Obligations, if funding is provided by a Trust Agreement). If the assets are inadequate to pay taxes, any taxes due shall be paid by the Reinsurer; 

 

	 	4.	to pay the Reinsurer’s share of any other amounts the Company claims are due under this Contract. 

 

	F.	If the amount drawn by the Company is in excess of the actual amount required for E(1) or E(3), or in the case of E(4), the actual amount determined to be due, the
Company shall promptly return to the Reinsurer the excess amount so drawn. All of the foregoing shall be applied without diminution because of insolvency on the part of the Company or the Reinsurer. 

 

	G.	The issuing bank shall have no responsibility whatsoever in connection with the propriety of withdrawals made by the Company or the disposition of funds withdrawn,
except to ensure that withdrawals are made only upon the order of properly authorized representatives of the Company. 

  

	H.	At annual intervals, or more frequently at the discretion of the Company, but never more frequently than quarterly, the Company shall prepare a specific statement of
the Reinsurer’s Obligations for the sole purpose of amending the LOC or other method of funding, in the following manner: 

  

	 	1.	If the statement shows that the Reinsurer’s Obligations exceed the balance of the LOC as of the statement date, the Reinsurer shall, within 30 days after receipt
of the statement, secure delivery to the Company of an amendment to the LOC increasing the amount of credit by the amount of such difference. Should another method of funding be used, the Reinsurer shall, within the time period outlined above,
increase such funding by the amount of such difference. 

  

	 	2.	If, however, the statement shows that the Reinsurer’s Obligations are less than the balance of the LOC (or that 102% of the Reinsurer’s Obligations are less
than the trust account balance if funding is provided by a Trust Agreement), as of the statement date, the Company shall, within 30 days after receipt of written request from the Reinsurer, release such excess credit by agreeing to secure an
amendment to the LOC reducing the amount of credit available by the amount of such excess credit. Should another method of funding be used, the Company shall, within the time period outlined above, decrease such funding by the amount of such excess.

returns or when making tax returns, other than Income or Profits Tax returns, to any state or territory of the United States of America or to the District of Columbia. 

 

					
	B.	 	1.	 	Each Subscribing Reinsurer has agreed to allow, for the purpose of paying the Federal Excise Tax, the applicable percentage of the premium payable hereon (as imposed under the
Internal Revenue Code) to the extent such premium is subject to Federal Excise Tax.

  

	 	2.	In the event of any return of premium becoming due hereunder, the Subscribing Reinsurer shall deduct the applicable percentage of the premium from the amount of the
return, and the Company or its agent should take steps to recover the Tax from the U.S. Government.

 ARTICLE 28 
 INSOLVENCY 
  

	A.	If more than one reinsured company is referenced within the definition of “Company” in the Preamble to this Contract, this Article shall apply severally to
each such company. Further, this Article and the laws of the domiciliary state shall apply in the event of the insolvency of any company covered hereunder. In the event of a conflict between any provision of this Article and the laws of the
domiciliary state of any company covered hereunder, that domiciliary state’s laws shall prevail. 

  

	B.	In the event of the insolvency of the Company, this reinsurance (or the portion of any risk or obligation assumed by the Reinsurer, if required by applicable law) shall
be payable directly to the Company, or to its liquidator, receiver, conservator or statutory successor, either: (1) on the basis of the liability of the Company, or (2) on the basis of claims filed and allowed in the liquidation
proceeding, whichever may be required by applicable statute, without diminution because of the insolvency of the Company or because the liquidator, receiver, conservator or statutory successor of the Company has failed to pay all or a portion of any
claim. It is 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 or bond 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 pro rata share of the benefit that may accrue to the
Company solely as a result of the defense undertaken by the Reinsurer.

	C.	Where two or more reinsurers are involved in the same claim and a majority in interest elect to interpose defense to such claim, the expense shall be apportioned in
accordance with the terms of this reinsurance Contract as though such expense had been incurred by the Company. 

  

	D.	As to all reinsurance made, ceded, renewed or otherwise becoming effective under this Contract, the reinsurance shall be payable as set forth above by the Reinsurer to
the Company or to its liquidator, receiver, conservator or statutory successor, (except as provided by Section 4118(a)(1)(A) of the New York Insurance Law, provided the conditions of 1114(c) of such law have been met, if New York law applies)
or except (1) where the Contract specifically provides another payee 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 payees 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 of the certificate of
assumption on New York risks by the Superintendent of Insurance of the State of New York, or with the prior approval of such other regulatory authority as may be applicable, is entirely released from its obligation and the Reinsurer shall pay any
loss directly to payees under such Policy. 

  

	E.	Notwithstanding the above, in the event of insolvency of those reinsured companies domiciled in the State of Illinois, the Reinsurer under this Contract shall have
rights, as more fully set forth in Section 173.2, 173.3, and 173.4 of Illinois Insurance Code, as amended. 

ARTICLE 29 

ARBITRATION 
  

	A.	 In the event of any dispute or difference of opinion hereafter arising with respect to this Contract, including its formation and validity, it is
hereby mutually agreed that such dispute or difference of opinion shall be submitted to binding arbitration. An arbitration shall be initiated when either party provides a written arbitration demand to the other, which shall set forth the general
nature of the claim. One arbitrator shall be chosen by the Company, the other by the Reinsurer, and an umpire shall be chosen by the two arbitrators before the arbitrators enter upon arbitration, all of whom shall be active or retired disinterested
executive officers of insurance or reinsurance companies or intermediaries with at least 10 years of experience in insurance and reinsurance. In the event that a party should fail to choose an arbitrator within 30 days of receipt of an
arbitration demand, the demanding party shall nominate three candidates within 10 days thereafter, two of whom the recipient party shall decline, and the third of whom shall be selected as an arbitrator. In the event

  

					
	 Effective: October 1, 2010

U4VT0004
	  	22 of 36	  	DOC: December 23, 2010

 

 

  

	 	 
that the arbitrators should fail to agree upon an umpire within 10 days of the appointment of the last arbitrator, each party shall nominate three candidates within 10 days thereafter, two
of whom the other shall decline, and the decision shall be made by drawing lots. 

  

	B.	Unless mutually agreed to in writing by both parties, each party shall be required to present its case to the arbitrators at a hearing within 180 days following the
appointment of the umpire. Unless otherwise agreed to by both parties, the hearing shall be held on consecutive days. The arbitrators shall render their written decision within 21 days following the day on which the hearing concludes.

  

	C.	The parties may, however, mutually agree to present their respective cases solely in writing, without the necessity of a formal hearing. In the event the parties so
elect, the parties shall submit initial briefs concurrently. Within 10 days of submission of the initial briefs, each party shall be entitled but not required to submit a response brief. The arbitrators shall render their written decision within 21
days after receipt of any response briefs. 

  

	D.	Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraphs A, B and C above, in the event that either party demands arbitration of a dispute between the Company and the Reinsurer,
and the amount in dispute is less than $250,000, unless the arbitration notice includes a demand for rescission of this Contract, 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 the receipt of the arbitration notice, the arbitrator shall be chosen in accordance with the Neutral Arbitrator 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 calendar 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. 

  

	E.	The parties desire that any arbitration proceed expeditiously. To that end, any written and/or oral discovery shall be conducted within the time limits set forth
herein. To the extent the parties wish to conduct discovery, the parties shall in good faith attempt to negotiate and agree on reasonable discovery. If the parties are unable to agree on the extent of any reasonable discovery to be conducted, the
issue of what, if any, discovery to be conducted shall be presented to the arbitrators. In that event, the arbitrators may allow reasonable discovery consistent with the parties’ desire to proceed expeditiously and within the time limits set
forth herein.

	  	23 of 36	  	DOC: December 23, 2010

 

 

  

	F.	The arbitrators shall consider this Contract as an honorable engagement rather than merely as a legal obligation; however, in resolving any dispute between the parties,
the arbitrators shall first attempt in all instances to give effect to the plain meaning of the language set forth in the written agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Contract, the arbitrators may at their discretion, consider
underwriting and placement information provided by the Company to the Reinsurer, as well as any correspondence exchanged by the parties that is related to this Contract; however, such information may not be used to alter the terms of this Contract
or the parties’ obligations hereunder. The decision of the arbitrators shall be final and binding on both parties; but failing to agree, the arbitrators shall call in the umpire and the decision of the majority of the arbitrators and the umpire
shall be final and binding upon both parties. Judgment upon the final decision of the arbitrators may be entered in any court having competent jurisdiction. 

 

	G.	If more than one Subscribing Reinsurer is involved in the same dispute, all such Subscribing Reinsurers may constitute and act as one party for purposes of this Article
and communications may be made by the Company to each of the Subscribing Reinsurers constituting one party, provided, however, that nothing herein shall impair the rights of such Subscribing Reinsurers to assert several, rather than joint, defenses
or claims, nor be construed as changing the liability of the Subscribing Reinsurers participating under the terms of this Contract from several to joint. 

  

	H.	Each party shall bear the expense of its own arbitrator and shall jointly and equally bear with the other the expense of the umpire and of the arbitration. In the event
that one party or both parties fails to choose an arbitrator, as above provided, the expense of the arbitrators, the umpire and the arbitration shall be equally divided between the two parties. 

 

	I.	Unless otherwise agreed to by both parties, any arbitration proceedings shall take place at Burr Ridge, Illinois. 

ARTICLE 30 
 SERVICE
OF SUIT 
  

	A.	This Article applies only to those Subscribing Reinsurers not domiciled in the United States of America, and/or not authorized in any state, territory and/or district
of the United States of America where authorization is required by insurance regulatory authorities. 

  

	B.	This Article shall not be read to conflict with or override the obligations of the parties to arbitrate their disputes as provided for in the Arbitration Article. This
Article is intended as an aid to compelling arbitration or enforcing such arbitration or arbitral award, not as an alternative to the Arbitration Article for resolving disputes arising out of this Contract.

	C.	In the event of the failure of the Reinsurer to perform its obligations hereunder, the Reinsurer, at the request of the Company, shall submit to the jurisdiction of a
court of competent jurisdiction within the United States. Nothing in this Article constitutes or should be understood to constitute a waiver of the Reinsurer’s rights to commence an action in any court of competent jurisdiction in the United
States, to remove an action to a United 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. The Reinsurer, once the appropriate court is
selected, whether such court is the one originally chosen by the Company and accepted by Reinsurer or is determined by removal, transfer, or otherwise, as provided for above, shall comply with all requirements necessary to give said court
jurisdiction and, in any suit instituted against the Reinsurer upon this Contract, shall abide by the final decision of such court or of any appellate court in the event of an appeal. 

 

	D.	Service of process in such suit may be made upon Messrs. Mendes and Mount, 750 Seventh Avenue, New York, New York 10019-6829, or another party specifically
designated in the applicable Interests and Liabilities Agreement attached hereto. The above-named are authorized and directed to accept service of process on behalf of the Reinsurer in any such suit. 

 

	E.	Further, pursuant to any statute of any state, territory or district of the United States that makes provision therefor, the Reinsurer hereby designates the
Superintendent, Commissioner or Director of Insurance, or other officer specified for that purpose in the statute, or his successor or successors in office, as its true and lawful attorney upon whom may be served any lawful process in any action,
suit or proceeding instituted by or on behalf of the Company or any beneficiary hereunder arising out of this Contract, and hereby designates the above-named as the person to whom the said officer is authorized to mail such process or a true copy
thereof. 

 ARTICLE 31 
 GOVERNING LAW 
 As respects each reinsured company, this Contract shall be governed as to
performance, administration and interpretation by the laws of the state of domicile of that reinsured company, exclusive of that state’s conflict of law rules. In the event there are two or more reinsured companies involved in a dispute with
the Reinsurer, and the dispute is not subject to the Arbitration Article, the court in which suit is filed shall decide, based on conflict of law rules, where the dispute shall be heard and which law shall be applied. However, with respect to credit
for reinsurance, the rules of all applicable states shall apply.

 TRUST AGREEMENT REQUIREMENTS CLAUSE 

 

	A.	Except as provided in paragraph B of this Clause, if the Reinsurer satisfies its funding obligations under the Unauthorized Reinsurance Article by providing a Trust
Agreement, the Reinsurer shall ensure that the Trust Agreement: 

  

	 	1.	Requires the Reinsurer to establish a trust account for the benefit of the Company, and specifies what the Trust Agreement is to cover; 

 

	 	2.	Stipulates that assets deposited in the trust account shall be valued according to their current fair market value and shall consist only of cash (United States legal
tender), certificates of deposit (issued by a United States bank and payable in United States legal tender), and investments of the types permitted by the regulatory authorities having jurisdiction over the Company’s reserves, or any
combination of the three, provided that the investments are issued by an institution that is not the parent, subsidiary or affiliate of either the Reinsurer or the Company; 

 

	 	3.	Requires the Reinsurer, prior to depositing assets with the trustee, to execute assignments or endorsements in blank, or to transfer legal title to the trustee of all
shares, obligations or any other assets requiring assignments, in order that the Company, or the trustee upon the direction of the Company, may whenever necessary negotiate these assets without consent or signature from the Reinsurer or any other
entity; 

  

	 	4.	Requires that all settlements of account between the Company and the Reinsurer be made in cash or its equivalent; and 

 

	 	5.	Provides that assets in the trust account shall be withdrawn only as permitted in this Contract, without diminution because of the insolvency of the Company or the
Reinsurer. 

  

	B.	If a ceding insurer is domiciled in California and the Reinsurer satisfies its funding obligations under the Unauthorized Reinsurance Article by providing a Trust
Agreement, the Reinsurer shall ensure that the Trust Agreement: 

  

	 	1.	Provides that assets deposited in the trust account shall be valued according to their current fair market value and shall consist only of cash in United States
dollars, certificates of deposit issued by a United States financial institution as defined in California Insurance Code Section 922.7(a) and payable in United States dollars, and investments permitted by the California Insurance Code, or any
combination of the above. 

  

	 	2.	Provides that investments in or issued by an entity controlling, controlled by or under common control with either the grantor or the beneficiary of the trust shall not
exceed 5% of total investments.

the individual ceding insurer’s domestic regulator. If such ceding insurer is subject to the commercial domicile laws or regulations of another state, such laws or regulations shall apply to the extent not in conflict with those of such ceding
