 Section 2.1 Underwriting of Subject Policies; Identification of Excluded
Contracts. 
 (a) Each Ceding Company agrees that each Subject Policy reinsured hereunder shall be underwritten in all respects in
accordance with the Underwriting Guidelines in effect as of the date of issuance of such Subject Policy or approved in writing by the Reinsurer. The Ceding Company shall be entitled to issue a Cut-Through Endorsement (i) on or after the
Effective Time, as to each Subject Policy and (ii) following the end of the UPR Review Period, as to each Existing Contract with respect to Losses occurring after the Effective Time. Any interest of the Ceding Companies in renewal rights and
expirations relating to the Insurance Contracts shall be retained by the Ceding Companies. 
 (b) During the UPR Review Period, the Ceding
Companies shall provide the Reinsurer access to such records, reports and information with respect to the Unearned Premium Reserve and Existing Contracts for the purpose of determining the Existing Contracts, which are Excluded Contracts. On or
before the end of the UPR Review Period, the Reinsurer shall provide the Ceding Companies a list of Excluded Contracts. 

Section 2.2 Insurance Contracts. 

(a) From and after the Effective Time, each Ceding Company hereby cedes, and the Reinsurer hereby assumes, one hundred percent
(100%) of all Losses (a) for which such Ceding Company is liable in respect of the Subject Policies, and (b) occurring following the Effective Time for which such Ceding Company is liable in respect of Included Existing Contracts.

 (b) In the event the Reinsurer makes an indemnity payment on behalf of an Ceding Company directly to any policyholder,
insured or third party pursuant to any Insurance Contract that pays, in full or in part, a Loss, cost or expense under such Insurance Contract, such payment satisfies and extinguishes any and all obligation of the Reinsurer hereunder to indemnify a
Ceding Company for such Loss, cost or expense to the extent of such payment. In no event shall the Reinsurer be obligated hereunder to indemnify with respect to any Loss, cost or expense under an Insurance Contract for an amount in excess of such
Loss, cost or expense. 
 (c) In the event that the unearned premium reserve of the Ceding Companies with respect to the
Excluded Contracts is more than forty percent (40%) of the unearned premium reserve of the Ceding Companies with respect to the Existing Contracts, in each case as of the Effective Time and as reasonably determined by the Ceding Companies in

  
 - 7 - 

 
accordance with the definition of Unearned Premium Reserves, the Ceding Companies may, upon written notice to the Reinsurer delivered within ten (10) business days of Tower’s receipt of
the Excluded Contracts Schedule, elect to exclude all Existing Contracts from this Agreement, in which case there shall be no Included Existing Contracts. 

Article 3 
 PAYMENTS,
OFFSET, AND SECURITY 
 Section 3.1 Premium. 

(a) Unearned Premium Reserves and Premiums. 

(i) As full premium for the Included Existing Contracts ceded under this Agreement, the Ceding Companies shall transfer to the
Reinsurer (A) all of the Unearned Premium Reserves held by the Company relating to such ceded business, net of Ceding Commission, and (B) all Premiums collected by or on behalf of the Ceding Companies on account of the Included Existing
Contracts on or after the date hereof, to the extent unearned as of the date hereof. 
 (ii) Unless an election to exclude
Existing Contracts shall have been made pursuant to Section 2.2(c), on the eleventh (11th) business day following the delivery of the Excluded Contract Schedule (the “UPR Transfer Date”), the Ceding Companies shall remit
to the Reinsurer by wire transfer of immediately available funds an amount (the “Initial UPR Transfer Amount”) equal to the Ceding Companies’ reasonable estimate of the Unearned Premium Reserves for the Included Existing
Contracts as of the Effective Time, net of the Initial UPR Ceding Commission and net of uncollected premium balances due on such Unearned Premium Reserves. 

(iii) Within ninety (90) days following the UPR Transfer Date, Tower shall recalculate the amounts specified in
Section 3.1(a)(ii) considering the post-UPR Transfer Date information available to the Parties (such calculations resulting in the calculation of the “Actual UPR Transfer Amount”) and, if different from the Initial UPR Transfer
Amount, Tower shall send to the Reinsurer its computation of the Actual UPR Transfer Amount together with its work papers used to compute the same (the “UPR True Up Report”). In the event of the failure of Tower to deliver the UPR
True Up Report within the time period specified herein, the Reinsurer shall be entitled to prepare and deliver to Tower the UPR True Up Report within one hundred eighty (180) days following the UPR Transfer Date. Tower shall consult with the
Reinsurer in the course of preparing the UPR True Up Report and shall afford the Reinsurer and its designees access to the Ceding Companies’ books and records in accordance with Section 3.4(d) until the final Actual UPR Transfer Amount and
the UPR Adjustment are finally determined pursuant to this Section 3.1(a). 
 (iv) Within ten (10) days following
Tower’s or the Reinsurer’s, as applicable, receipt of the UPR True Up Report, the Parties shall confer in good faith with regard to 

  
 - 8 - 

 
the Actual UPR Transfer Amount and, if necessary, an appropriate adjustment shall be made to the amounts due or payable pursuant to this Section 3.1(a) as agreed upon by the Parties. If the
Parties are unable to agree on the Actual UPR Transfer Amount within twenty (20) days of Tower’s receipt of the UPR True Up Report, “Alternative Accountants,” whose decision on the matter shall be binding on the Parties,
shall be designated by agreement between Tower and the Reinsurer. If the Parties fail to agree on the selection of the Alternative Accountants, the Alternative Accountants shall be selected by mutual agreement of each of Tower’s and the
Reinsurer’s outside independent auditors. The Alternative Accountants shall conduct such analysis as they deem appropriate, during a period not to exceed thirty (30) days after they are selected, to determine the amounts which they
conclude should have been reflected in the UPR True Up Report and shall issue their decision (which shall be rendered in writing and shall specify the reasons for the decision) within fifteen (15) days after the conclusion of their analysis.
The Alternative Accountants’ decision shall include a determination of the Actual UPR Transfer Amount, the amounts which they have determined should be used for the UPR True Up Report and a determination of the UPR Adjustment (as that term is
defined in Section 3.1(a)(v)) due to the Reinsurer or the Ceding Companies, as the case may be. Each Party shall make available to the other Party and the Alternative Accountants such work papers as may be reasonably necessary to calculate the
Actual UPR Transfer Amount and UPR Adjustment under this Section 3.1(a)(iv). No Party shall have any ex parte discussions or communications, directly or indirectly, with the Alternative Accountants regarding the subject matter of a
dispute arising under this Section 3.1(a)(iv), unless the Party seeking such discussions or communications first obtains the other Party’s written consent to such ex parte contact with the Alternative Accountants. For the avoidance of
doubt, in the event of any dispute with respect to the UPR True Up Report, such dispute shall be governed by this Section 3.1(a)(iv) and the procedures set forth herein, and not by the provisions of Section 12.4. 

(v) On the fifth (5th) business day following the mutual written
agreement of Tower and the Reinsurer to, or the determination by the Alternative Accountants of, the final Actual UPR Transfer Amount, if the premium required under this subsection (a) using such final Actual UPR Transfer Amount exceeds the
Initial UPR Transfer Amount, the Ceding Companies shall remit funds to the Reinsurer equal to the difference, and if the premium so calculated is less than the Initial UPR Transfer Amount, the Ceding Companies shall be paid such difference by the
Reinsurer, net of the Ceding Commission paid on such difference (the amount so transferred being herein called the “UPR Adjustment”). 

(b) Subject Policies. As premium for the Subject Policies ceded under this Agreement, each Ceding Company shall pay to
the Reinsurer one hundred percent (100%) of the Premiums collected that are attributable to the Subject Policies for coverage following the Effective Time, less Inuring Reinsurance Costs. 

(c) Ceding Commission. The Reinsurer shall pay the Ceding Commission with respect to the collected Premium. 

  
 - 9 - 

 Section 3.2 Offset Rights. 

Each Party shall have, and may exercise at any time and from time to time, the right to offset any balance or balances due to the other
Parties arising under this Agreement, and regardless of whether on account of Losses, Premiums, Ceding Commission or Inuring Reinsurance Costs, related to or arising under the Insurance Contracts; provided, however, that in the event
of the insolvency of a Party hereto or any of its Affiliates, offsets shall only be allowed in accordance with the provisions of Applicable Law. 

Section 3.3 Premiums for Insurance Contracts 

(a) The Reinsurer is authorized to collect Premiums for the Insurance Contracts from policyholders and producers of a Ceding
Company and may deposit such Premiums directly into one or more accounts designated by, and issued in the name of, the Reinsurer. The Ceding Companies shall direct policyholders and producers to make all Premium payments payable with respect to
Insurance Contracts directly to Reinsurer. To the extent any Premiums are collected directly by a Ceding Company, such Ceding Company shall so advise the Reinsurer and shall promptly remit them to the Reinsurer. Provided that the Reinsurer properly
funds the Loss Fund Account in accordance with Section 4(h), such remittance shall be without any reduction or offset for any Ceding Commission or Losses due to any Ceding Company or any amount due Tower or any of its Affiliates. The Reinsurer
and the Ceding Companies agree to maintain accounting and operational records and books in adequate detail so as to identify the specific Insurance Contracts and policyholders of the Ceding Companies with respect to all collected Premiums and to
report Premiums collected in accordance with Section 3.4(a). 
 (b) The Reinsurer shall: (i) timely pay any return
premium, coming due under the Insurance Contracts; or (ii) pursuant to the next monthly settlement pursuant to Section 3.4, reimburse a Ceding Company for any of the foregoing amounts that are instead paid by such Ceding Company, net of
the amount of Ceding Commission paid upon any such return premium. Ceding Company shall reimburse the Reinsurer for any Ceding Commission on return premium paid by Reinsurer. 

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Parties recognize that Premium is remitted to the Ceding Companies by producers net of
commissions due and that in such case only net Premium shall be remitted to the Reinsurer.

 Section 3.4 Reports and Remittances. 

(a) The Parties shall conduct monthly settlements based upon monthly bordereaux to be provided by or on behalf of the Ceding
Companies evidencing the amount due or to be due in a form, and containing such detail, as is agreed to by the Parties. Each Party shall pay or credit in cash or its equivalent to the other all net amounts for which it may be liable under the terms
and conditions of this Agreement within ten (10) days after receipt of each Premium Bordereaux and Inuring Reinsurance report. In connection with such monthly settlement the Ceding Companies shall:

to all business and transactions effective in that month no later than the 15th day of the subsequent month; provided that if reasonably required by Reinsurer, Ceding Companies shall provide the information described above and the accounts

terms provided in this Agreement and the Loss Fund Account and Data Reporting Procedures set forth on Exhibit D attached hereto (the “Loss Fund Account Procedures”). From time-to-time upon reasonable written notice by Reinsurer to the
Ceding Companies, Reinsurer may replace, modify or amend the Loss Fund Account Procedures in good faith in order to facilitate efficient performance by the Parties of their respective obligations under this Agreement. The funds deposited into such

INSOLVENCY 
 In the
event of the insolvency of a Ceding Company, this reinsurance as to Insurance Contracts issued by such Ceding Company shall be payable directly to such Ceding Company or its liquidator, receiver, conservator or statutory successor on the basis of
the amount of the claims allowed in the insolvency proceeding without diminution because of the insolvency of such Ceding Company or because the liquidator, receiver, conservator or statutory successor of such Ceding Company has failed or is unable
to pay all or a portion of a claim, except where (a) this Agreement specifically provides another payee of such reinsurance in the event of such Ceding Company’s insolvency, provided that this exception shall only apply to the extent that
the reinsurance proceeds due such payee are actually paid by the Reinsurer, or (b) the Reinsurer, with the consent of the direct insured or insureds, has assumed such policy obligations of such Ceding Company as direct obligations of the
Reinsurer to the payees under such policies and in full and complete substitution for the obligations of such Ceding Company to such payees. It is agreed, however, that the liquidator, receiver, conservator or statutory successor shall give written
notice to the Reinsurer of the pendency of a claim against such Ceding Company indicating the Subject Policy which involves a possible liability on the part of the Reinsurer within 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 such Ceding Company or its liquidator, receiver, conservator or statutory successor. The expenses thus incurred by the Reinsurer shall be chargeable, subject to the Court’s approval, against such Ceding Company as

paid Claims and Loss Adjustment Expenses. The initial amount of the Loss Fund Account will be determined and deposited by Reinsurer. 

	 	D.	Claims Administrator and Reinsurer will review the amount of this Loss Fund Account periodically to determine the adequacy of the fund to cover a good faith estimate of the number of days of expected paid claims
(including paid Loss Adjustment Expenses), and Claims Administrator will provide Reinsurer with a quarterly cash flow forecast in a form and manner to be agreed upon. Notwithstanding the procedure above, Reinsurer will also monitor the adequacy of
the Claim Loss Fund Account and, when necessary, request to adjust the deposit to maintain the revised indicated needed amount. Reinsurer will advise Claims Administrator when the minimum amount is to be changed. 

 

	 	E.	Claims Administrator will administer and maintain the Claim Loss Fund Account and reconcile the account monthly. 

  

	 	F.	Claims Administrator will provide a report to Reinsurer by the tenth (10) business day of each month which indicates monthly, in arrears, a reconciliation of the claim Loss Fund Account, with the following

	 	H.	Claims Administrator shall have no investment authority, or responsibility to Reinsurer with respect to funds deposited in the Claim Loss Fund Account. 

 

	 	I.	Claims Administrator shall handle all correspondence, transactions and instruments of payment in a manner that complies with all regulations concerning the use of bank accounts. All Claim payments will be made in Claims

Policy(ies).

accordance with the Underwriting Guidelines in effect as of the date of issuance of such Subject Policy or approved in writing by the Reinsurer. 

  
 - 6 - 

 
The Ceding Company shall be entitled to issue a Cut-Through Endorsement (i) on or after the Effective Time, as to each Subject Policy and (ii) following the end of the UPR Review
Period, as to each Existing Contract with respect to Losses occurring after the Effective Time. Any interest of the Ceding Companies in renewal rights and expirations relating to the Insurance Contracts shall be retained by the Ceding Companies.

 (b) During the UPR Review Period, the Ceding Companies shall provide the Reinsurer access to such records, reports and information with
respect to the Unearned Premium Reserve and Existing Contracts for the purpose of determining the Existing Contracts, which are Excluded Contracts. On or before the end of the UPR Review Period, the Reinsurer shall provide the Ceding Companies a
list of Excluded Contracts. 
 Section 2.2 Insurance Contracts. 

(a) From and after the Effective Time, each Ceding Company hereby cedes, and the Reinsurer hereby assumes, one hundred percent (100%) of
all Losses (a) for which such Ceding Company is liable in respect of the Subject Policies, and (b) occurring following the Effective Time for which such Ceding Company is liable in respect of Included Existing Contracts. 

(b) In the event the Reinsurer makes an indemnity payment on behalf of an Ceding Company directly to any policyholder, insured or third party
pursuant to any Insurance Contract that pays, in full or in part, a Loss, cost or expense under such Insurance Contract, such payment satisfies and extinguishes any and all obligation of the Reinsurer hereunder to indemnify a Ceding Company for such

percent (40%) of the unearned premium reserve of the Ceding Companies with respect to the Existing Contracts, in each case as of the Effective Time and as reasonably determined by the Ceding Companies in accordance with the definition of
Unearned Premium Reserves, the Ceding Companies may, upon written notice to the Reinsurer delivered within ten (10) business days of Tower’s receipt of the Excluded Contracts Schedule, elect to exclude all Existing Contracts from this

Reinsurer (A) all of the Unearned Premium Reserves held by the Company relating to such ceded business, net of Ceding Commission, and (B) all Premiums collected by or on behalf of the Ceding Companies on account of the Included Existing
Contracts on or after the date hereof, to the extent unearned as of the date hereof. 

  
 - 7 - 

 (ii) Unless an election to exclude Existing Contracts shall have been made
pursuant to Section 2.2(c), on the eleventh (11th) business day following the delivery of the Excluded Contract Schedule (the “UPR Transfer Date”), the Ceding Companies shall remit to the Reinsurer by wire transfer of immediately
available funds an amount (the “Initial UPR Transfer Amount”) equal to the Ceding Companies’ reasonable estimate of the Unearned Premium Reserves for the Included Existing Contracts as of the Effective Time, net of the Initial UPR
Ceding Commission and net of uncollected premium balances due on such Unearned Premium Reserves. 
 (iii) Within ninety
(90) days following the UPR Transfer Date, Tower shall recalculate the amounts specified in Section 3.1(a)(ii) considering the post-UPR Transfer Date information available to the Parties (such calculations resulting in the calculation of
the “Actual UPR Transfer Amount”) and, if different from the Initial UPR Transfer Amount, Tower shall send to the Reinsurer its computation of the Actual UPR Transfer Amount together with its work papers used to compute the same
(the “UPR True Up Report”). In the event of the failure of Tower to deliver the UPR True Up Report within the time period specified herein, the Reinsurer shall be entitled to prepare and deliver to Tower the UPR True Up Report
within one hundred eighty (180) days following the UPR Transfer Date. Tower shall consult with the Reinsurer in the course of preparing the UPR True Up Report and shall afford the Reinsurer and its designees access to the Ceding Companies’
books and records in accordance with Section 3.4(d) until the final Actual UPR Transfer Amount and the UPR Adjustment are finally determined pursuant to this Section 3.1(a). 

(iv) Within ten (10) days following Tower’s or the Reinsurer’s, as applicable, receipt of the UPR True Up
Report, the Parties shall confer in good faith with regard to the Actual UPR Transfer Amount and, if necessary, an appropriate adjustment shall be made to the amounts due or payable pursuant to this Section 3.1(a) as agreed upon by the Parties.
If the Parties are unable to agree on the Actual UPR Transfer Amount within twenty (20) days of Tower’s receipt of the UPR True Up Report, “Alternative Accountants,” whose decision on the matter shall be binding on the
Parties, shall be designated by agreement between Tower and the Reinsurer. If the Parties fail to agree on the selection of the Alternative Accountants, the Alternative Accountants shall be selected by mutual agreement of each of Tower’s and
the Reinsurer’s outside independent auditors. The Alternative Accountants shall conduct such analysis as they deem appropriate, during a period not to exceed thirty (30) days after they are selected, to determine the amounts which they
conclude should have been reflected in the UPR True Up Report and shall issue their decision (which shall be rendered in writing and shall specify the reasons for the decision) within fifteen (15) days after the conclusion of their analysis.
The Alternative Accountants’ decision shall include a determination of the Actual UPR Transfer Amount, the amounts which they have determined should be used for the UPR True Up Report and a determination of the UPR Adjustment (as that term is
defined in Section 3.1(a)(v)) due to the Reinsurer or the Ceding Companies, as the case may be. Each Party shall make available to the other Party and the Alternative 

  
 - 8 - 

 
Accountants such work papers as may be reasonably necessary to calculate the Actual UPR Transfer Amount and UPR Adjustment under this Section 3.1(a)(iv). No Party shall have any ex
parte discussions or communications, directly or indirectly, with the Alternative Accountants regarding the subject matter of a dispute arising under this Section 3.1(a)(iv), unless the Party seeking such discussions or communications first
obtains the other Party’s written consent to such ex parte contact with the Alternative Accountants. For the avoidance of doubt, in the event of any dispute with respect to the UPR True Up Report, such dispute shall be governed by this
Section 3.1(a)(iv) and the procedures set forth herein, and not by the provisions of Section 12.4. 
 (v) On the
fifth (5th) business day following the mutual written agreement of Tower and the Reinsurer to, or the determination by the Alternative Accountants of, the final Actual UPR Transfer Amount, if
the premium required under this subsection (a) using such final Actual UPR Transfer Amount exceeds the Initial UPR Transfer Amount, the Ceding Companies shall remit funds to the Reinsurer equal to the difference, and if the premium so
calculated is less than the Initial UPR Transfer Amount, the Ceding Companies shall be paid such difference by the Reinsurer, net of the Ceding Commission paid on such difference (the amount so transferred being herein called the “UPR
Adjustment”). 
 (b) Subject Policies. As premium for the Subject Policies ceded under this Agreement, each
Ceding Company shall pay to the Reinsurer one hundred percent (100%) of the Premiums collected that are attributable to the Subject Policies for coverage following the Effective Time, less Inuring Reinsurance Costs. 

(c) Ceding Commission. The Reinsurer shall pay the Ceding Commission with respect to the collected Premium. 

Section 3.2 Offset Rights. 

Each Party shall have, and may exercise at any time and from time to time, the right to offset any balance or balances due to the other
Parties arising under this Agreement, and regardless of whether on account of Losses, Premiums, Ceding Commission or Inuring Reinsurance Costs, related to or arising under the Insurance Contracts; provided, however, that in the event
of the insolvency of a Party hereto or any of its Affiliates, offsets shall only be allowed in accordance with the provisions of Applicable Law. 

Section 3.3 Premiums for Insurance Contracts 

(a) The Reinsurer is authorized to collect Premiums for the Insurance Contracts from policyholders and producers of a Ceding
Company and may deposit such Premiums directly into one or more accounts designated by, and issued in the name of, the Reinsurer. The Ceding Companies shall direct policyholders and producers to make all Premium payments payable with respect to
Insurance Contracts directly to Reinsurer. To the extent any Premiums are collected directly by a Ceding Company, such Ceding Company shall so advise the Reinsurer and shall promptly remit them to the Reinsurer. Provided that the Reinsurer properly
funds the Loss Fund Account in accordance with

return premium, coming due under the Insurance Contracts; or (ii) pursuant to the next monthly settlement pursuant to Section 3.4, reimburse a Ceding Company for any of the foregoing amounts that are instead paid by such Ceding Company,
net of the amount of Ceding Commission paid upon any such return premium. Ceding Company shall reimburse the Reinsurer for any Ceding Commission on return premium paid by Reinsurer. 

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Parties recognize that Premium is remitted to the Ceding Companies by producers net of
commissions due and that in such case only net Premium shall be remitted to the Reinsurer. 
 Section 3.4 Reports and
Remittances. 
 (a) The Parties shall conduct monthly settlements based upon monthly bordereaux to be provided by or
on behalf of the Ceding Companies evidencing the amount due or to be due in a form, and containing such detail, as is agreed to by the Parties. Each Party shall pay or credit in cash or its equivalent to the other all net amounts for which it may be

Section 3.5 Collateral for Ceded Losses. 

Without limiting the Reinsurer’s other obligations under this Section 3.6, in the event pursuant to Applicable Law of any state of
the United States of America or the District of Columbia having jurisdiction over a Ceding Company, such Ceding Company is no longer able to take full reserve credit on its statutory financial statements for the reinsurance ceded to the Reinsurer

 - 13 - 

 
effective as of the Effective Time, in furtherance of Reinsurer’s right to assume authority for administration of Insurance Contracts, each Ceding Company hereby appoints the Reinsurer as

Reinsurer or its designee of all Claims (i) described on Exhibit C attached hereto, (ii) in excess of policy limits or (iii) that are extra-contractual in nature (but only to the extent such Claims are not otherwise known or reported

denied, delayed or conditioned; provided that upon five (5) days written notice from the Reinsurer to a Ceding Company, the Reinsurer may require that all coverage declinations in the ordinary course of business shall be subject to this
sentence. All other coverage questions must be reviewed and approved by Reinsurer in writing prior to providing any notification to an insured. 

(e) A Ceding Company shall not commence any declaratory judgment action without the prior written consent of Reinsurer, which

reinsurance, and such Ceding Company shall cooperate with the Reinsurer or such designee in every respect to procure the most favorable disposition of such claim, suit or proceeding. 

(g) The Ceding Companies shall maintain sufficient resources and adequate staffing levels of personnel with appropriate
experience to administer the Insurance Contracts in a professional manner and shall administer the Insurance Contracts in accordance with all Applicable Laws. 

(h) To facilitate the payment of Claims and Loss Adjustment Expenses, the Parties agree to use a Loss Fund Account upon the
terms provided in this Agreement and the Loss Fund Account and Data Reporting Procedures set forth on Exhibit D attached hereto (the “Loss Fund Account Procedures”). From time-to-time upon reasonable written notice by Reinsurer to the
Ceding Companies, Reinsurer may replace, modify or amend the Loss Fund Account Procedures in good faith in order to facilitate efficient performance by the Parties of their respective obligations under this Agreement. The funds deposited into such

 Section 6.2 Indemnity

provided in the Cut-Through Endorsements, shall not create any legal relationship whatsoever between the Reinsurer and any Person other than the Ceding Companies. 

Section 6.3 Reinsurance

 Article 7 

INSOLVENCY 
 In the
event of the insolvency of a Ceding Company, this reinsurance as to Insurance Contracts issued by such Ceding Company shall be payable directly to such Ceding Company or its liquidator, receiver, conservator or statutory successor on the basis of
the amount of the claims allowed in the insolvency proceeding without diminution because of the insolvency of such Ceding Company or because the liquidator, receiver, conservator or statutory successor of such Ceding Company has failed or is unable
to pay all or a portion of a claim, except where (a) this Agreement specifically provides another payee of such reinsurance in the event of such Ceding Company’s insolvency, provided that this exception shall only apply to the extent that
the reinsurance proceeds due such payee are actually paid by the Reinsurer, or (b) the Reinsurer, 

  
 - 16 - 

 
with the consent of the direct insured or insureds, has assumed such policy obligations of such Ceding Company as direct obligations of the Reinsurer to the payees under such policies and in full
and complete substitution for the obligations of such Ceding Company to such payees. It is agreed, however, that the liquidator, receiver, conservator or statutory successor shall give written notice to the Reinsurer of the pendency of a claim
against such Ceding Company indicating the Subject Policy which involves a possible liability on the part of the Reinsurer within 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 such Ceding Company
or its liquidator, receiver, conservator or statutory successor. The expenses thus incurred by the Reinsurer shall be chargeable, subject to the Court’s approval, against such Ceding Company as part of the expense of the conservation or
liquidation to the extent of a pro rata share of the benefit that may accrue to such Ceding Company solely as a result of the defense undertaken by the Reinsurer.

Agreement. The Parties agree that where formal approval is required by any Governmental Authority, this Agreement shall not be effective as to any and all Insurance Contracts to be reinsured hereunder in such jurisdiction until such approval is
obtained. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement shall apply to all Insurance Contracts issued or to be issued in a particular jurisdiction to the extent that the Parties have agreed that no such approvals are required (including,

all respects to the same risks, original terms and conditions, interpretations, waivers, and to the same cancellation of the Insurance Contracts as such Ceding Company is subject to, the true intent of this Agreement being that the Reinsurer shall,

Loss Fund Account Procedures 
 In addition to the
direction expressly set forth in the Agreement, the Ceding Companies (collectively, the “Claims Administrator”) agree to comply with the following procedures (the “Loss Fund Account Procedures”). In the event of any conflict
between the Loss Fund Account Procedures and the Agreement, the Agreement shall govern. 
 Where the following procedure directs Claims Administrator to
report to Reinsurer, such report should be directed to be designated in writing by the Reinsurer. 
  

	I.	CLAIM LOSS FUND ACCOUNT PROCEDURES 

  

	 	A.	Reinsurer will fund the Claim Loss Fund Account. The Claim Loss Fund Account will be funded in an amount that the Claims Administrator and Reinsurer agree is necessary for the purpose of paying Claims and Loss
Adjustment Expenses under the Subject Policy(ies). 

  

	 	B.	The Loss Fund Account will be established by the Claims Administrator in Reinsurer’s name; will be funded by Reinsurer; and will be administered, monitored and maintained by the Claims Administrator at such bank
approved from time to time by Reinsurer, said account being exclusively dedicated to purpose described in subsection I.A. immediately preceding. The account name will be “Tower Insurance Claims Fund FBO [Reinsurer Name]”. Reinsurer will be
authorized by Claims Administrator to designate up to four Authorized Check Signers on the account. Claims Administrator is responsible for all administration or banking fees charged to the escrow account. The deposits of funds in such bank shall be
insured by the Bank Insurance Fund or the Savings Associations Insurance Fund of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. 

Claims Administrator shall maintain such account in a fiduciary capacity separate and apart from any operating or other funds of Claims
Administrator, and separate and apart from any other funds maintained by Claims Administrator on behalf of any other entity or person. The Claims Administrator shall not change the bank where the Loss Fund Account(s) is maintained without the prior
written approval of Reinsurer. The account will be established with Positive Pay unless otherwise approved in writing by Reinsurer. 
  

	 	C.	At the inception of the Policy(ies) and at the beginning of each month, the amount of the Loss Fund Account will equal an amount which represents a good faith estimate by Reinsurer of the number of days and expected
paid Claims and Loss Adjustment Expenses. The initial amount of the Loss Fund Account will be determined and deposited by Reinsurer. 

	 	D.	Claims Administrator and Reinsurer will review the amount of this Loss Fund Account periodically to determine the adequacy of the fund to cover a good faith estimate of the number of days of expected paid claims
(including paid Loss Adjustment Expenses), and Claims Administrator will provide Reinsurer with a quarterly cash flow forecast in a form and manner to be agreed upon. Notwithstanding the procedure above, Reinsurer will also monitor the adequacy of
the Claim Loss Fund Account and, when necessary, request to adjust the deposit to maintain the revised indicated needed amount. Reinsurer will advise Claims Administrator when the minimum amount is to be changed. 

 

	 	E.	Claims Administrator will administer and maintain the Claim Loss Fund Account and reconcile the account monthly. 

  

	 	F.	Claims Administrator will provide a report to Reinsurer by the tenth (10) business day of each month which indicates monthly, in arrears, a reconciliation of the claim Loss Fund Account, with the following
information: 

  

	 	1.	The previous closing account balance for the Claim Loss Fund Account; 

  

	 	2.	Deposits made to the Claim Loss Fund Account during the month; 

  

	 	3.	Itemization and application of the month’s disbursements by location, check number, claim number and payment amount; 

  

	 	4.	The Claim Loss Fund Account balance to the end of the month; and, 

  

	 	5.	A Reconciliation of the Loss Run Inception-To-Date to the Total Loss Funding and Ending Escrow Claim Loss Fund Account Balance in a format acceptable to Reinsurer. 

From time to time, Reinsurer may request Claims Administrator to provide additional summary or detail reports in printout or electronic format.

  

	 	G.	If the Agreement is terminated Claims Administrator shall monitor and administer the Claim Loss Fund Account until all liabilities under the Policy(ies) have been resolved or completely paid. 

 

	 	H.	Claims Administrator shall have no investment authority, or responsibility to Reinsurer with respect to funds deposited in the Claim Loss Fund Account. 

 

	 	I.	Claims Administrator shall handle all correspondence, transactions and instruments of payment in a manner that complies with all regulations concerning the use of bank accounts. All Claim payments will be made in Claims
Administrator’s name, on Reinsurer’s behalf.

	II.	LOSS PAYMENT PROCEDURE 

  

	A.	Claimants must be paid for covered claims in accordance with regulatory requirements. For purposes of this paragraph A., the term “Claimants” means individuals or organizations that make a Claim under the
Policy(ies). 

  

	B.	Claims Administrator will establish procedures to make timely payments (within agreed to and statutory time frames) of qualified loss when due, and shall have the authority to commit funds from the Claim Loss Fund
Account. Drafts or checks should be issued in a timely manner and in accordance with the applicable rules, regulations and laws applicable of the jurisdiction(s) involved. 

 

	C.	Claims Administrator will retain copies of, or facsimile copies of, checks for seven (7) years from the date of bank clearance.
