Employers Mutual Casualty Company is hereinafter referred to as “EMC”, and the other companies signatory hereto are hereinafter referred to as the “Affiliated Companies” or as the “Affiliated Company”, as the context requires.

 

EMC and each Affiliated Company signatory to the Pooling Agreement agree to honor the terms set forth herein as if this Agreement were solely between EMC and each such Affiliated Company. Balances payable to or recoverable from EMC and any such Affiliated Company shall not serve to offset any balances payable to or recoverable from any other Affiliated Company signatory to this Agreement. Reports and remittances between EMC and each Affiliated Company shall be in sufficient detail to identify the individual premium and loss obligation of each party to the other.

 

ARTICLE I

 

The Companies are engaged in the insurance business and maintain a mutual business relationship having certain incidents of common management, and desire to bring about for each other added economies of operation, uniform underwriting results, diversification as respects the classes of insurance business written, and maximization of capacity.

Such liabilities shall include the Affiliated Company’s reserves for unearned premiums, outstanding losses and loss expenses (including unreported losses) and all other underwriting and administrative expenses as evidenced by the Affiliated Company’s books and records, but shall not include inter-company balances, liabilities for Corporate Taxes including Federal or State Income Taxes, or liabilities incurred in connection with their respective investment transactions.

 

ARTICLE III

ARTICLE VII

 

EMC agrees to pay to the Affiliated Company it respective participation of all premiums written by the companies after first deducting premiums on all reinsurance ceded to reinsurers (other than the parties hereto). Similarly, it is further agreed that all losses, loss expense and other underwriting and administrative expenses (with the exceptions noted in Articles II and V hereof) of the companies, less all losses and expense recovered and recoverable under reinsurance ceded to reinsurers (other than the parties hereto), shall be pro-rated between the parties on the basis of their respective participation as reflected in the aforesaid exhibit.

 


ARTICLE VIII

 

The obligation of the companies under this Agreement to exchange reinsurance between themselves may be offset by reciprocal obligation so that the net amount only shall be required to be transferred, except no offset shall be valid under circumstances prohibited by Section 7472, New York Insurance Laws. An accounting on all transactions shall be rendered quarterly, and the settling of balances shall be made within 30 days after the rendering of the quarterly reports.

ARTICLE XII

 

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