		  	4 of 35	  	

 ARTICLE 3 

TERM 
 This Contract shall take effect at 12:01 a.m.,
Standard Time, June 1, 2016, and unless terminated prior to that time and date as provided in the Special Termination Article, shall remain in effect until 12:01 a.m., Standard Time, June 1, 2017, applying to Loss Occurrences commencing
during the term of this Contract. For purposes of this Contract, “Standard Time” shall mean the time as described in the original Policy. 

ARTICLE 4 
 SPECIAL TERMINATION

  

	A.	The Company may terminate a Subscribing Reinsurer’s percentage share in this Contract at any time by giving written notice to the Subscribing Reinsurer in the event of any of the following circumstances:

  

	 	1.	The Subscribing Reinsurer ceases underwriting operations. 

  

	 	2.	A state insurance department or other legal authority orders the Subscribing Reinsurer to cease writing business, or the Subscribing Reinsurer is placed under regulatory supervision. 

 

	 	3.	The Subscribing 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, trustee in bankruptcy, or other agent known by whatever name, to take possession of its assets or control of its operations. 

 

	 	4.	The Subscribing Reinsurer’s policyholders’ surplus (or the equivalent under the Subscribing Reinsurer’s accounting system) as reported in such financial statements of the Subscribing Reinsurer as
designated by the Company, has been reduced by 20% of the amount thereof at any date during the prior 12-month period (including the period prior to the inception of this Contract). 

 

	 	5.	The Subscribing Reinsurer has merged with or has become acquired or controlled by any company, corporation, or individual(s) not controlling the Subscribing Reinsurer’s operations at the inception of this Contract.

  

	 	6.	The Subscribing Reinsurer has retroceded its entire liability under this Contract without the Company’s prior written consent, except for retrocessions to members of the Subscribing Reinsurer’s holding company
group.

	  		  	DOC: May 10, 2016
		  	5 of 35	  	

	 	7.	The Subscribing Reinsurer has hired an unaffiliated runoff claims manager that is compensated on a contingent basis or is otherwise provided with financial incentives based on the quantum of claims paid.

  

	B.	Termination shall be effected on a cut-off basis and the Subscribing Reinsurer shall have no liability for Loss Occurrences commencing after the date of termination. The reinsurance premium due the Subscribing Reinsurer
hereunder (including any minimum reinsurance premium) shall be prorated based on the period of the Subscribing Reinsurer’s participation hereon, and the Subscribing Reinsurer shall immediately return any excess reinsurance premium received.
Reinstatement premium, if any, shall be calculated based on the Subscribing Reinsurer’s reinsurance premium earned during the period of the Subscribing Reinsurer’s participation hereon. 

 

	C.	Additionally, in the event of any of the circumstances listed in paragraph A of this Article, the Company shall have the option to commute the Subscribing Reinsurer’s liability for losses on Policies covered by
this Contract. In the event the Company and the Subscribing Reinsurer cannot agree on the commutation amount, they shall appoint an actuary and/or appraiser to assess such amount and shall share equally any expense of the actuary and/or appraiser.
If the Company and the Subscribing Reinsurer cannot agree on an actuary and/or appraiser, the Company and the Subscribing Reinsurer each shall nominate three individuals, of whom the other shall decline two, and the final appointment shall be made
by drawing lots. Payment by the Subscribing Reinsurer of the amount of liability ascertained shall constitute a complete and final release of both parties in respect of liability arising from the Subscribing Reinsurer’s participation under this
Contract. 

  

	D.	The Company’s option to require commutation under paragraph C above shall survive the termination or expiration of this Contract.

Obligations and Loss in Excess of Policy Limits. 

  

	 	2.	Salvages and all recoveries (including amounts due from all reinsurances that inure to the benefit of this Contract, whether recovered or not), shall be first deducted from such loss to arrive at the amount of liability
attaching hereunder. 

  

	 	3.	All salvages, recoveries or payments recovered or received subsequent to loss settlement hereunder shall be applied as if recovered or received prior to the aforesaid settlement, and all necessary adjustments shall be
made by the parties hereto. 

  

	 	4.	The Company shall be deemed to be “liable to pay” a loss when a judgment has been rendered that the Company does not plan to appeal, and/or the Company has obtained a release, and/or the Company has accepted a
proof of loss. 

  

	 	5.	Nothing in this clause shall be construed to mean that losses are not recoverable hereunder until the Company’s “Ultimate Net Loss” has been ascertained. 

 

	B.	“Loss Adjustment Expense” means costs and expenses incurred by the Company in connection with the investigation, appraisal, adjustment, settlement, litigation, defense or appeal of a specific claim or loss, or
alleged loss, including but not limited to:

	C.    1.	“Loss Occurrence” means the sum of all individual losses directly occasioned by any one disaster, accident or loss or series of disasters, accidents or losses arising out of one event. However, the duration
and extent of any one “Loss Occurrence” shall be limited to all individual losses sustained by the Company occurring during any period of 168 consecutive hours arising out of and directly occasioned by the same event (except as provided in
subparagraph (d) below) except that the term “Loss Occurrence” shall be further defined as follows: 

  

	 	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 96 consecutive hours arising out of and

occasioned by the same event. The maximum duration of 96 consecutive hours may be extended in respect of individual losses that occur beyond such 96 consecutive hours during the continued occupation of an assured’s premises by strikers,
provided such occupation commenced during the aforesaid period. 

  

	 	c.	As regards earthquake (the epicenter of which need not necessarily be within the territorial confines referred to above) and fire following directly occasioned by the earthquake, those earthquake losses and individual

	  		  	DOC: May 10, 2016
		  	10 of 35	  	

	 	3.	Only one period of consecutive hours shall apply with respect to one event, except that, as respects those “Loss Occurrences” referred to in subparagraph (1)(b) above, if the disaster, accident or loss
occasioned by the event is of greater duration than 96 consecutive hours, respectively, 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.	Losses arising from a combination of two or more perils as a result of the same event shall be considered as having arisen from one “Loss Occurrence.” Notwithstanding the foregoing, the hourly limitations as
stated above shall not be exceeded as respects the applicable perils, and no single “Loss Occurrence” shall encompass a time period greater than the applicable maximum period set forth above. 

 

	D.	“Policy” means any binder, policy, or contract of insurance or reinsurance issued, accepted or held covered provisionally or otherwise, by or on behalf of the Company. 

ARTICLE 11 
 EXTRA CONTRACTUAL
OBLIGATIONS/EXCESS OF POLICY LIMITS 
  

	A.	This Contract shall cover Extra Contractual Obligations, as provided in the definition of Ultimate Net Loss. “Extra Contractual Obligations” shall be defined as those liabilities not covered under any other
provision of this Contract and that arise from the handling of any claim on business covered hereunder, such liabilities arising because of, but not limited to, the following: failure by the Company to settle within the Policy limit, or by reason of
alleged or actual negligence, fraud or bad faith in rejecting an offer of settlement or in the preparation of the defense or in the trial of any action against its insured or reinsured or in the preparation or prosecution of an appeal consequent
upon such action. 

  

	B.	This Contract shall cover Loss in Excess of Policy Limits, as provided in the definition of Ultimate Net Loss. “Loss in Excess of Policy Limits” shall be defined as Loss in excess of the Policy limit, having
been incurred because of, but not limited to, failure by the Company to settle within the Policy limit or by reason of alleged or actual negligence, fraud or bad faith in rejecting an offer of settlement or in the preparation of the defense or in
the trial of any action against its insured or reinsured or in the preparation or prosecution of an appeal consequent upon such action. 

  

	C.	An Extra Contractual Obligation and/or Loss in Excess of Policy Limits shall be deemed to have occurred on the same date as the loss covered under the Company’s Policy, and shall constitute part of the original
loss. 

  

	D.	For the purposes of the Loss in Excess of Policy Limits coverage hereunder, the word “Loss” shall mean any amounts for which the Company would have been contractually liable to pay had it not been for the
limit of the original Policy. 

  

					
	 Effective: June 1, 2016
	  		  	DOC: May 10, 2016
		  	11 of 35	  	

	E.	Loss Adjustment Expense in respect of Extra Contractual Obligations and/or Loss in Excess of Policy Limits shall be covered hereunder in the same manner as other Loss Adjustment Expense. 

 

	F.	However, this Article shall not apply where the loss has been incurred due to final legal adjudication of fraud of a member of the Board of Directors or a corporate officer of the Company acting individually or
collectively or in collusion with any individual or corporation or any other organization or party involved in the presentation, defense or settlement of any claim covered hereunder. 

 

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

 ARTICLE 12

 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 13 
 OTHER REINSURANCE 

The Company shall be permitted to carry in force other reinsurance, recoveries under which shall inure to the benefit of this Contract. 

ARTICLE 14 
 ORIGINAL CONDITIONS

 All reinsurance under this Contract shall be subject to the same terms, conditions, waivers and interpretations, and to the same modifications and
alterations as the respective Policies of the Company. However, in no event shall this be construed in any way to provide coverage outside the terms and conditions set forth in this Contract. 

  

					
	 Effective: June 1, 2016

		  	12 of 35

the Company and the Reinsurer, and in no instance shall any insured, claimant or other third party have any rights under this Contract except as may be expressly provided otherwise herein. 

ARTICLE 16 
 NOTICE OF LOSS AND LOSS
SETTLEMENTS 
  

	A.	The Company shall advise the Reinsurer promptly if paid and estimated Ultimate Net Loss is in excess of 75% of the Company’s retention, or if, in the opinion of the Company, such Ultimate Net Loss may result in a
claim hereunder. Thereafter, the Company shall advise the Reinsurer, at least monthly, of all subsequent developments thereto that may materially affect the position of the Reinsurer. 

 

	B.	The Company alone and at its full discretion shall adjust, settle or compromise all claims and losses. 

  

	C.	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. The Reinsurer agrees to pay or allow, as the case may be, its share of each such settlement immediately upon receipt of reasonable evidence of the amount paid by the Company or that the Company
estimates it will pay within the next 14 days. Within 30 days after receipt of the Reinsurer’s payment, the Company shall report to the Reinsurer the Reinsurer’s payment, minus the Reinsurer’s share of losses subject to this
Contract that the Company has paid, or become liable to pay, as of the date of the report. Any positive difference shall be remitted to the Reinsurer with the Company’s report. 

ARTICLE 17 
 LATE PAYMENTS 

 

	A.	In the event any payment due either party is not received by the Intermediary by the payment due date, the party to whom payment is due may, by notifying the Intermediary in writing, require the debtor party to pay, and
the debtor party agrees to pay, an interest penalty on the amount past due calculated for each such payment on the last business day of each month as follows: 

  

	 	1.	The number of full days that have expired since the overdue date or the last monthly calculation, whichever the lesser; times 

  

					
	 Effective: June 1, 2016
	  		  	DOC: May 10, 2016
		  	13 of 35	  	

	 	2.	1/365th of the sum of the six-month United States Treasury Bill rate as quoted in The Wall Street Journal on the first business day of the month for which the calculation is made, plus 1%; times

  

	 	3.	The amount past due, including accrued interest. 

 Interest shall accumulate until payment of
the original amount due plus interest penalties have been received by the Intermediary. 
  

	B.	The due date shall, for purposes of this Article, be determined as follows: 

  

	 	1.	Payments from the Reinsurer to the Company shall be due on the date on which the demand for payment (including delivery of bordereaux or quarterly or monthly reports) is received by the Reinsurer, and shall be overdue
30 days thereafter. 

  

	 	2.	Payments from the Company to the Reinsurer shall be due on the dates specified within this Contract. Payments shall be overdue 30 days thereafter except for the first installment of premium, if applicable, which
shall be overdue 60 days from inception or 30 days from final line-signing, whichever the later. Reinstatement premium, if applicable, shall have as a due date the date when the Company receives payment for the claim giving rise to such
reinstatement premium, and payment shall be overdue 30 days thereafter. In the event a due date is not specifically stated for a given payment, the overdue date shall be 30 days following the date of billing. 

 

	C.	If the information contained in the Company’s demand for payment is insufficient or not in accordance with the conditions of this Contract, then within 30 days the Reinsurer shall request from the Company all
additional information necessary to validate its claim and the payment due date as defined in paragraph B shall be deemed to be the date upon which the Reinsurer received the requested additional information. This paragraph is only for the purpose
of establishing when a payment is overdue, and shall not alter the provisions of the Notice of Loss and Loss Settlements Article or other pertinent contractual stipulations. 

 

	D.	In the event arbitration is necessary to settle a dispute, the panel shall have the authority to make a determination awarding interest to the prevailing party. Interest, if any, awarded by the panel shall supersede the
interest amounts outlined herein. 

  

	E.	Any interest owed pursuant to this Article may be waived by the party to which it is owed. Waiver of such interest, however, shall not affect the waiving party’s rights to other interest amounts due as a result of
this Article. 

 ARTICLE 18

 ARTICLE 19 

CURRENCY 
  

	A.	Where the word “Dollars” and/or the sign “$” appear in this Contract, they shall mean United States Dollars, and all payments hereunder shall be in United States Dollars. 

 

	B.	For purposes of this Contract, where the Company receives premiums or pays losses in currencies other than United States Dollars, such premiums or losses shall be converted into United States Dollars at the actual rates
of exchange at which these premiums or losses are entered in the Company’s books. 

 ARTICLE 20 

UNAUTHORIZED REINSURANCE 
  

	A.	This Article applies only to the extent a Subscribing Reinsurer does not qualify for credit with any insurance regulatory authority having jurisdiction over the Company’s reserves. 

 

	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. 

  

					
	 Effective: June 1, 2016
	  		  	DOC: May 10, 2016
		  	15 of 35	  	

	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; 

 

	 	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 or reimbursed 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. 

  

					
	 Effective: June 1, 2016

	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. 

ARTICLE 21 
 TAXES 

 

	A.	In consideration of the terms under which this Contract is issued, the Company undertakes not to claim any deduction of the premium hereon when making Canadian tax 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 22 

ACCESS TO RECORDS 
  

	A.	The Reinsurer or its duly authorized representatives shall have the right to visit the offices of the Company to inspect, examine, audit, and verify any of the policy, accounting or claim files (“Records”)
relating to business reinsured under this Contract during regular business hours after giving five working days’ prior notice. This right shall be exercisable during the term of this Contract or after the expiration of this Contract.
Notwithstanding the above, the Reinsurer shall not have any right of access to the Records of the Company if it is not current in all undisputed payments due the Company. 

 

	B.	Notwithstanding the above, the Company reserves the right to withhold from the Reinsurer any Privileged Documents. However, the Company shall permit and not object to the Reinsurer’s access to Privileged Documents
in connection with the underlying claim reinsured hereunder following final settlement or final adjudication of the case or cases involving such claim, with prejudice against all claimants and all parties to such adjudications; the Company may defer
release of such Privileged Documents if there are subrogation, contribution, or other third party actions with respect to that claim or case, and the Company’s defense might be jeopardized by release of such Privileged Documents. In the event
that the Company seeks to defer release of such Privileged Documents, it shall, in consultation with the Reinsurer, take other steps as reasonably necessary to provide the Reinsurer with the information it reasonably requires to indemnify the
Company without causing a loss of such privileges or protections. The Reinsurer shall not have access to Privileged Documents relating to any dispute between the Company and the Reinsurer. 

 

	C.	For purposes of this Article: 

  

	 	1.	“Privileged Documents” means any documents that are Attorney-Client Privilege Documents and/or Work Product Privilege Documents. 

 

	 	2.	“Attorney-Client Privilege Documents” means communications of a confidential nature between (a) the Company, or anyone retained by or at the direction of the Company, or its
in-house or outside legal counsel, or anyone in the control of such legal counsel, and (b) any in-house or outside legal counsel, if such communications relate to legal advice being sought by the Company
and/or contain legal advice being provided to the Company. 

  

	 	3.	“Work Product Privilege Documents” means communications, written materials and tangible things prepared by or for in-house or outside counsel, or prepared by or for the Company, in anticipation of or in
connection with litigation, arbitration, or other dispute resolution proceedings.

 ARTICLE 23 

CONFIDENTIALITY 
  

	A.	The Reinsurer hereby acknowledges that the documents, information and data provided to it by the Company, whether directly or through an authorized agent, in connection with the placement and execution of this Contract

	 	1.	are publicly known or have become publicly known through no unauthorized act of the Reinsurer; 

  

	 	2.	have been rightfully received from a third person without obligation of confidentiality; or

	B.	Absent the written consent of the Company, the Reinsurer shall not disclose any Confidential Information to any third parties, including any affiliated companies (except to the extent necessary to enable affiliated
companies or third parties engaged by the Reinsurer to perform services related to this Contract on behalf of the Reinsurer), except: 

  

	 	1.	when required by retrocessionaires as respects business ceded to this Contract; 

  

	 	2.	when required by regulators performing an audit of the Reinsurer’s records and/or financial condition; or 

  

	 	3.	when required by external auditors performing an audit of the Reinsurer’s records in the normal course of business. 

Further, the Reinsurer agrees not to use any Confidential Information for any purpose not related to the performance of its obligations or
enforcement of its rights under this Contract. 
  

	C.	Notwithstanding the above, in the event that the Reinsurer is required by court order, other legal process or any regulatory authority to release or disclose any or all of the Confidential Information, the Reinsurer
agrees to provide the Company with written notice of same at least 10 days prior to such release or disclosure and to use its best efforts to assist the Company in maintaining the confidentiality provided for in this Article. 

 

	D.	The provisions of this Article shall extend to the officers, directors and employees of the Reinsurer and its affiliates, and shall be binding upon their successors and assigns.

 ARTICLE 24 

INDEMNIFICATION AND ERRORS AND OMISSIONS 
  

	A.	The Reinsurer is reinsuring, subject to the terms and conditions of this Contract, the obligations of the Company under any Policy. The Company shall be the sole judge as to: 

 

	 	1.	what shall constitute a claim or loss covered under any Policy; 

  

	 	2.	the Company’s liability thereunder; 

  

	 	3.	the amount or amounts that it shall be proper for the Company to pay thereunder. 

  

	B.	The Reinsurer shall be bound by the judgment of the Company as to the obligation(s) and liability(ies) of the Company under any Policy. 

 

	C.	Any inadvertent error, omission or delay in complying with the terms and conditions of this Contract shall not be held to relieve either party hereto from any liability that would attach to it hereunder if such error,
omission or delay had not been made, provided such error, omission or delay is rectified immediately upon discovery. 

  

	D.	Nothing in this Article shall be construed to override any of the other terms and conditions of this Contract. 

ARTICLE 25 
 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

  

					
	 Effective: June 1, 2016
	  		  	DOC: May 10, 2016

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 Financial Services 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. 

 ARTICLE 26 

RUN-OFF REINSURER 
  

	A.	“Run-off Reinsurer” means any Subscribing Reinsurer that: 

  

	 	1.	has been ordered by a state insurance department or other legal authority to cease writing business, or has been placed under regulatory supervision or in rehabilitation; or 

 

	 	2.	has ceased reinsurance underwriting operations; or 

  

	 	3.	has transferred its claims-paying authority to an unaffiliated entity; or 

  

	 	4.	engages in a process of Scheme of Arrangement or similar procedure related to this Contract, including but not limited to an insurance business transfer scheme pursuant to Part VII of the Financial Services and Markets
Act 2000 (U.K.), as may be amended from time to time; or 

  

					
	 Effective: June 1, 2016
	  		  	DOC: May 10, 2016
		  	21 of 35	  	

	 	5.	in any other way has assigned its interests or delegated its obligations under this Contract to an unaffiliated entity. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, agreement by a Lloyd’s syndicate to follow claim settlements procedures under Lloyd’s Claims Scheme
(Combined) shall not constitute a transfer of its claims-paying authority, for purposes of subparagraphs (3) and (5) of this paragraph. 
  

	B.	Notwithstanding any other provision of this Contract, in the event that a Subscribing Reinsurer becomes 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 participation hereunder: 

  

	 	1.	Should the Run-off Reinsurer fail to pay amounts due hereunder, the interest penalty specified in the Late Payments Article shall be increased by 0.5% for each 30 days that a payment is past due, subject to a maximum
increase of 7.0%. 

  

	 	2.	The Run-off Reinsurer’s liability for losses for Policies covered by this Contract shall be commuted. In the event the Company and the Run-off Reinsurer cannot agree on the commutation amount of the Run-off
Reinsurer’s liability under such Policies, they shall appoint an actuary and/or appraiser to assess such liability and shall share equally any expense of the actuary and/or appraiser. If the Company and the Run-off Reinsurer cannot agree on an
actuary and/or appraiser, the Company and the Run-off Reinsurer each shall nominate three individuals, of whom the other shall decline two, and the final appointment shall be made by drawing lots. Payment by the Run-off Reinsurer of the amount of
liability ascertained shall constitute a complete and final release of both parties under this Contract. 

  

	 	3.	The Run-off Reinsurer shall have no right of access to the Records of the Company if the Run-off Reinsurer has denied payment of any claim hereunder or there is a pending arbitration between the Company and the Run-off
Reinsurer regarding any claim hereunder. A reservation of rights shall be considered a denial of a claim. Notwithstanding the above, the Run-off Reinsurer shall continue to have access to Records of the Company for any claim for which it has raised
a query within 30 days of its receipt of a billing, but any inspection of Records must be completed within 90 days of receipt of billing or access will be deemed waived. 

 

	 	4.	The provisions of the Arbitration Article shall not apply. 

  

	C.	The Company’s waiver of any rights provided in this Article is not a waiver of that right or other rights at a later date.

 ARTICLE 27 

ARBITRATION 
  

	A.	Any dispute arising out of the interpretation, performance or breach of this Contract, including the formation or validity thereof, shall be submitted for decision to a panel of three arbitrators. Notice requesting
arbitration shall be in writing and sent certified or registered mail, return receipt requested. 

  

	B.	One arbitrator shall be chosen by each party and the two arbitrators shall then choose an impartial third arbitrator who shall preside at the hearing. If either party fails to appoint its arbitrator within 30 days
after being requested to do so by the other party, the latter, after 10 days’ prior notice by certified or registered mail of its intention to do so, may appoint the second arbitrator. 

 

	C.	If the two arbitrators do not agree on a third arbitrator within 60 days of their appointment, the third arbitrator shall be chosen in accordance with the procedures for selecting the third arbitrator in force on
the date the arbitration is demanded, established by the AIDA Reinsurance and Insurance Arbitration Society – U.S. (ARIAS). The arbitrators shall be persons knowledgeable about insurance and reinsurance who have no personal or financial
interest in the result of the arbitration. If a member of the panel dies, becomes disabled or is otherwise unwilling or unable to serve, a substitute shall be selected in the same manner as the departing member was chosen and the arbitration shall
continue. 

  

	D.	Within 30 days after all arbitrators have been appointed, the panel shall meet and determine timely periods for briefs, discovery procedures and schedules of hearings. 

 

	E.	The panel shall be relieved of all judicial formality and shall not be bound by the strict rules of procedure and evidence. 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. The arbitration shall take place in Tampa, Florida, or at
such other place as the parties shall agree. The decision of any two arbitrators shall be in writing and shall be final and binding. The panel is empowered to grant interim relief as it may deem appropriate. 

 

	F.	The panel shall interpret this Contract as an honorable engagement rather than as merely a legal obligation and shall make its decision considering the custom and practice of the applicable insurance and reinsurance
business as promptly as possible after the hearings. Judgment upon an award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. 

  

	G.	Each party shall bear the expense of its own arbitrator 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.

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 the 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 the office of the General Counsel of HCI Group, Inc., 5300 West Cypress Street, Suite 100, Tamp, Florida 33607, 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.

	1.	Nevertheless the Reinsurer specifically agrees that liability accruing to the Company from its participation in Residual Market Mechanisms, including but not limited to the following, for all perils otherwise protected
hereunder shall not be excluded herefrom: 

  

	 	a.	So-called “Beach and Windstorm Plans” and so-called “Coastal Pools”; 

  

	 	b.	All “FAIR Plan” and “Rural Risk Plan” business; 

  

					
	 Effective: June 1, 2016
	  		  	DOC: May 10, 2016
		  	28 of 35	  	

	 	c.	Citizens Property Insurance Corporation (Florida), Louisiana Citizens Property Insurance Corporation or any similar state-run insurance corporation; 

 

	 	d.	California Earthquake Authority (“CEA”) or any similar entity. 

 Notwithstanding the
above, assessments related to the Florida Hurricane Catastrophe Fund and Citizens Property Insurance Corporation (Florida) shall be excluded hereunder. 
  

	2.	However, this reinsurance does not include any increase in such liability resulting from: 

  

	 	a.	The inability of any other participant in such Residual Market Mechanisms to meet its liability; 

  

	 	b.	Any claim against a Residual Market Mechanism or any participant therein, including the Company, whether by way of subrogation or otherwise, brought by or on behalf of any insolvency fund (as defined in the Exclusions
Article); 

  

	 	c.	Any assessment or surcharge levied on the policyholder and therefore not a liability of the Company; 

  

	 	d.	The Company’s initial capital contribution to the CEA; 

  

	 	e.	Any assessments, other than interim and regular assessments, from a Residual Market Mechanism included in subparagraph 1(c) above; 

  

	 	f.	Any expenditure to purchase or retire bonds. 

  

	3.	The Company may include in Ultimate Net Loss for any Loss Occurrence covered hereunder only the liability attributable to that Loss Occurrence. If the relevant entity does not specify what portion of an assessment is
attributable to each Loss Occurrence, the Company may include in Ultimate Net Loss in respect of each Loss Occurrence a percentage of the Company’s assessments from the relevant entity related to the calendar year in which the Loss Occurrence
commenced, regardless of when assessed, such percentage to be determined by dividing the relevant entity’s losses arising from the Loss Occurrence by its total losses for the calendar year. 

 

	4.	The Company will deduct from Ultimate Net Loss amounts received as recoupment of any assessment that has been included in the Ultimate Net Loss, provided the recoupment is directly allocable to the assessment
(“itemized recoupment”). The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to recoup such assessment. Any amount received as an itemized recoupment of any assessment (whether under this Contract or any predecessor contract), and
therefore deductible from Ultimate Net Loss, shall not be included in the subject premium of this Contract. 

 However, if a
state levies assessments but does not allow itemized recoupment from policyholders, instead allowing the Company to file an overall increased rate, any such premium increased thereby shall not be deemed to be a recoupment that is deductible from
Ultimate Net Loss. Any recoupment received as part of a general premium rate increase, not specifically itemized, shall be included as part of the subject premium of this Contract or a successor contract, as applicable.
