EXHIBIT 10.2

EXECUTION VERSION

AMENDED AND RESTATED INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT

This Amended and Restated Investment Management Agreement (the “Agreement”), dated as of December 31, 2019 (the “Amendment Date”) and effective as of October 1, 2019 (the “Effective Date”), is by and between Fidelity & Guaranty Life Insurance Company, a life insurance company domiciled in the State of Iowa (the “Company”) and Blackstone ISG-I Advisors L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company (the “Investment Manager”).

WHEREAS, the Company desires that the Investment Manager supervise and direct the investment and reinvestment with respect to the assets in the Company’s general account (the assets in such account, together with all additions, substitutions and alterations thereto, are collectively referred to herein as the “Account”), and the Investment Manager wishes to accept such appointment on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement.

WHEREAS, the Company and the Investment Manager desire to amend and restate the Investment Management Agreement dated as of November 30, 2017 between the Company and the Investment Manager, effective as of the Effective Date.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants herein contained, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1. Appointment of Investment Manager. On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, the Company hereby appoints the Investment Manager as investment manager of the Account with discretionary authority to manage the investment and reinvestment of the funds and assets of the Account in accordance with the terms hereof, such discretion to be exercised at all times and in all circumstances in accordance with the Investment Manager’s fiduciary duties to the Company (subject to the limitations of liability set forth in Section 2(c) and Schedule 3 hereto), and the Investment Manager accepts such appointment. In the course of providing the services contemplated by this Agreement, the Investment Manager shall act as a fiduciary and shall discharge its fiduciary duties and exercise each of its powers under this Agreement with the care, skill and diligence that a registered investment adviser under the Investment Advisors Act of 1940, as amended, acting in a like capacity and familiar with insurance company matters, would use in the conduct of a like enterprise with like aims, taking into consideration the facts and circumstances then prevailing, and such fiduciary duties shall specifically include a duty (a) to act with good faith; (b) of loyalty to Company; (c) to provide full and fair disclosure of all material facts; (d) to employ reasonable care to avoid misleading Company; and (e) to act in a manner consistent with the Investment Guidelines for the Account as agreed to between Investment Manager and Company.

2. Management Services; Duties of and Restrictions on Investment Manager; Sub-Managers.

(a) For the avoidance of doubt and without limiting the generality of the powers conferred upon it by Section 1, the Investment Manager shall be responsible for the investment and reinvestment of the assets of the Account in accordance with the Investment Guidelines set forth in Schedule 1 attached hereto (as amended or supplemented from time to time by an agreement in writing of the Company and the Investment Manager, the “Investment Guidelines”). In connection therewith, the Investment Manager shall have full authority:

(i) to buy, sell, sell short, hold and trade, on margin or otherwise and in or on any market or exchange within or outside the United States or otherwise, preferred and common stock of domestic and foreign issuers, securities convertible into preferred or common stock of domestic and foreign issuers, debt securities of and/or loans to domestic and foreign governmental issuers (including federal, state, municipal, governmental sponsored agency, global and regional development bank and export-import bank issuers) and domestic and foreign corporate issuers, investment company securities, money-market securities, partnership interests, mortgage and asset backed securities, foreign currencies and currency forwards, futures contracts and options thereon, bank and debtor-in-possession loans, trade receivables, repurchase and reverse repurchase agreements, commercial paper, other securities, futures and derivatives (including equity, interest rate and currency swaps, swaptions, caps, collars and floors), asset hedging, rights and options on all of the foregoing and other investments, assets or property selected by the Investment Manager in its discretion;

(ii) to select, open, maintain or close one or more sub-accounts with any Custodian (as defined below) pursuant to the applicable Custodial Agreement (as defined below);

(iii) to transfer funds (by wire transfer or otherwise) or securities (by transfer via the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation or otherwise) (A) between the Account’s Custodians (if more than one), (B) between sub-accounts maintained by any Custodian for the Account, (C) subject to Section 20(d), between the Account and any account owned by other clients of the Investment Manager or (D) to or from any brokers or dealers engaged by the Investment Manager on behalf of the Company in connection with the investments permitted herein;

(iv) to select and open, maintain, and close one or more trading accounts with brokers and dealers for the execution of transactions on behalf of the Company and to negotiate, enter into, execute, deliver, perform, renew, extend, and terminate all contracts, agreements, and other undertakings on behalf of the Company with brokers, dealers, prime brokers or other counterparties, including, but not limited to, executing broker agreements; and

(v) to effect such other investment transactions involving the assets in the Company’s name and solely for the Account, including without limitation, to execute swaps, futures, options and other agreements with counterparties on the Company’s behalf as the Investment Manager deems appropriate from time to time in order to carry out the Investment Manager’s responsibilities hereunder.

2

(b) The Investment Guidelines, including any amendments or supplements thereto, shall comply with the insurance laws and regulations of the State of Iowa applicable to investments of the Company (“Applicable Investment Law”). If, due to a change in Applicable Investment Law, the Company reasonably determines that the Investment Guidelines no longer conform to Applicable Investment Law, the Company may request revisions to the Investment Guidelines in order to cause the Investment Guidelines to conform to Applicable Investment Law, and the Investment Manager shall accept such revisions.

(c) In accordance with the Investment Manager’s policies and procedures set forth in Schedule 3 attached hereto, the Investment Manager or its agent is authorized, but shall not be required, to vote, tender or convert any securities in the Account; to execute waivers, consents and other instruments with respect to such securities; to endorse, transfer or deliver such securities or to consent to any class action, plan of reorganization, merger, combination, consolidation, liquidation or similar plan with reference to such securities; and the Investment Manager shall not incur any liability to the Company by reason of any exercise of, or failure to exercise, any such discretion in the absence of gross negligence or bad faith.

(d) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Investment Manager may, in its own discretion, but with the prior verbal or written consent of the Company, delegate any or all of its discretionary investment, advisory and other rights, powers, functions and obligations hereunder to one or more investment advisers (each, a “Sub- Manager”), including its affiliates; provided that (i) any such delegation shall be revocable by either the Investment Manager or the Company consistent with the terms and conditions related to the appointment of such Sub-Manager, (ii) no such designation shall relieve the Investment Manager from any of its obligations or liabilities hereunder, and the Investment Manager shall always remain responsible to the Company for all obligations or liabilities of such Sub-Manager with regards to providing such service or services as if provided by the Investment Manager and (iii) the Investment Manager shall be responsible for ensuring that any Sub-Manager complies with the Investment Guidelines. Following the Amendment Date, except as otherwise provided in the following sentence and Section 3(a), all fees and other remuneration payable to Sub- Managers (the “Sub-Manager Fees”), when combined with Management Fees paid under this Agreement, in excess of 0.30% of aggregate assets managed by Sub-Managers, shall be paid by a parent entity or other affiliate of the Company. With respect to assets managed by Sub- Managers in the separately managed account arrangements set forth on Schedule 4 (“Grandfathered SMAs”), the Company agrees that Sub-Manager Fees, when combined with Management Fees paid under this Agreement, in excess of 0.30% of aggregate assets managed pursuant to such Grandfathered SMAs, may be paid by the Company out of the assets managed by such Sub-Managers during the 12 month period following October 1, 2019. Any Sub- Manager Fees paid by the Company during such 12 month period, when combined with Management Fees paid under this Agreement, in excess of 0.30% of aggregate assets managed pursuant to such Grandfathered SMAs, shall be reimbursed by a parent entity or other affiliate of the Company.

3. Compensation; Expenses.

(a) The Company agrees to pay, from the assets of the Account, the Investment Manager or its designee a management fee (“Management Fee”) for the services provided pursuant to this Agreement, calculated and paid in accordance with Schedule 2 attached hereto.

(b) [Reserved].

(c) The Investment Manager will be responsible for all fees and expenses incurred by it in performing its obligations under this Agreement, including any fees and expenses incurred by any sub-advisor or Sub-Manger engaged by the Investment Manager, which shall include internal costs of the Company related to the management of the Account as may be invoiced to the Investment Manager by the Company or its affiliates; provided, that the Company shall be responsible for Sub-Manager Fees payable in respect of delegations to Sub-Managers in respect of Grandfathered SMAs in accordance with Section 2(d). For the avoidance of doubt, Account Trading and Investment Expenses of the Investment Manager and Sub- Managers shall be paid by the Company out of the assets of the Account. For purposes of this Agreement, “Account Trading and Investment Expenses” shall mean all out-of-pocket brokerage fees, brokerage commissions and all other brokerage transaction costs, stock borrowing and lending fees, interest on cash balances, custodial fees, reasonable transaction legal expenses, regulatory fees or taxes payable in respect of the Account, professional expenses (including fees in connection with the use of proxy voting services) and any other fees and expenses related to the trading and investment activity of the Account as determined by the Investment Manager (or any Sub-Manager) in good faith. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to delegations to affiliated Sub-Managers prior to the Effective Date under arrangements previously approved or non-disapproved by the Iowa Insurance Division, the Company shall continue to pay any fees and other remuneration payable to such Sub-Managers out of the assets managed by such Sub- Managers under the express terms of such arrangements through September 30, 2019, and from and after October 1, 2019, the Company shall not be responsible for, or be required to pay, any fees or other remuneration payable to such Sub-Managers of the Investment Manager.

4. Custodian.

(a) The assets of the Account shall be held by one or more custodians, trustees or securities intermediaries duly appointed by the Company (each, a “Custodian”), in one or more accounts at each such Custodian pursuant to custodial, trust or similar agreements approved by the Company (each, a “Custodial Agreement”). The Investment Manager may open new sub-accounts under any Custodial Agreement, and cause the assets of the Account to be held in such sub-accounts established with the applicable Custodian in accordance with such Custodial Agreement. The Investment Manager is authorized to give instructions to each Custodian, in writing, with respect to all investment decisions regarding the Account. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Investment Manager to take or receive physical possession of any of the assets for the Account, it being intended that sole responsibility for safekeeping thereof (in such investments as the Investment Manager may direct) and the consummation of all purchases, sales, deliveries and investments made pursuant to the Investment Manager’s direction shall rest upon the Custodians. The Custodians may be changed from time to time upon the written instructions of the Company.

4

(b) The Company shall instruct each Custodian to send the Investment Manager duplicate copies of all Account statements given to the Company by the Custodian. The Company acknowledges that it receives Account statements from each Custodian at least quarterly.

5. Brokerage. The Company hereby delegates to the Investment Manager sole and exclusive authority to designate the brokers or dealers through whom all purchases and sales on behalf of the Account will be made. To the extent permitted by applicable law, such brokers or dealers may include affiliates of the Investment Manager. The Investment Manager will determine the rate or rates, if any, to be paid for brokerage services provided to the Account. In selecting brokers or dealers to effect transactions on behalf of the Account, the Investment Manager, subject to its overall duty to obtain “best execution” of Account transactions, will have authority to and may consider the full range and quality of the ability of the brokers or dealers to execute transactions efficiently, their responsiveness to the Investment Manager’s instructions, their facilities, reliability and financial responsibility and the value of any research or other services or products they provide. The Investment Manager will not be obligated to seek in advance competitive bidding for the most favorable commission rate applicable to any particular transaction for the Account or to select any broker-dealer on the basis of its purported posted commission rate. As long as the services or other products provided by a particular broker or dealer (whether directly or through a third party) qualify as “brokerage and research” services within the meaning of Section 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (and relevant Securities and Exchange Commission interpretations of that section) and the Investment Manager determines in good faith that the amount of commission charged by such broker or dealer is reasonable in relation to the value of such “brokerage and research services,” the Investment Manager may utilize the services of that broker or dealer to execute transactions for the Account on an agency basis even if (i) the Account would incur higher transaction costs than it would have incurred had another broker or dealer been used and (ii) the Account does not necessarily benefit from the research or products provided by that broker or dealer.

6. Limitation of Liability; Indemnification.

(a) The Investment Manager does not guarantee the future performance of the Account or any specific level of performance, the success of any investment decision or strategy that the Investment Manager may use, or the success of the Investment Manager’s overall management of the Account. The Investment Manager does not provide any express or implied warranty as to the performance or profitability of the Account or any part thereof or that any specific investment objectives will be successfully met. The Company understands that investment decisions made by the Investment Manager on behalf of the Account are subject to various market, currency, economic, political and business risks, and that those investment decisions will not always be profitable.

(b) The Investment Manager, any affiliate of the Investment Manager or any member, partner, shareholder, principal, director, officer, employee or agent of the Investment Manager or any such affiliate (each, an “Investment Manager Party”) shall not be liable for any

5

loss, liability or damage (“Losses”) resulting from: (i) any act or omission (including any such acts or omissions deemed to constitute willful misconduct, negligence, or bad faith) of any independent representative, consultant, independent contractor, broker, agent or other person (other than any Sub-Manager) who is selected, engaged or retained by the Investment Manager in connection with the performance of ministerial services, without investment management discretion, under this Agreement, unless such person was selected, engaged or retained by the Investment Manager in a grossly negligent manner or in bad faith; (ii) any act or failure to act by any Custodian or any other third party (other than any Sub-Manager); (iii) the failure by the Investment Manager or any Sub-Manager to adhere to any limitations or restrictions contained in the Investment Guidelines as a result of changes in market value, additions to or withdrawals from the Account, portfolio rebalancing or other non-volitional acts of the Investment Manager or any Sub-Manager; (iv) any act or omission by the Investment Manager or any Sub-Manager in connection with the performance of its services under this Agreement, except in cases of willful misconduct, gross negligence, bad faith or reckless disregard by the Investment Manager or such Sub-Manager of the obligations and duties of the Investment Manager under this Agreement; or (v) revisions to the Investment Guidelines pursuant to Section 2(b). The Investment Manager shall have no liability for any Losses suffered, and shall be fully indemnified by the Company for any Losses it may suffer, as the result of any actions it takes or any actions it does not take based on instructions received from any of the authorized persons of the Company reasonably believed by the Investment Manager to be genuine. The Investment Manager may consult with legal counsel at its cost and expense concerning any question which may arise with reference to this Agreement or its duties hereunder.

(c) The Investment Manager shall indemnify, defend, hold and save harmless the Company, any affiliate of the Company or any member, partner, shareholder, principal, director, officer, employee or agent of the Company or any such affiliate (each, a “Company Party”) against any Losses, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, any interest, penalties and reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred in connection with the defense of Proceedings) to the extent arising from: (i) any inaccuracy in or breach of the representations and warranties made by the Investment Manager contained in Section 8(b) of this Agreement, (ii) any breach or failure by the Investment Manager to perform any of its covenants or obligations contained in this Agreement, (iii) any act or omission by the Investment Manager deemed to constitute a breach of the standard of care set forth in Section 1 of this Agreement or (iv) any bad faith, willful misfeasance, gross negligence or reckless disregard of duties in connection with the performance by Investment Manager, its officers, agents and employees of its obligations under this Agreement. The Investment Manager will provide written notice to the Company promptly if the Investment Manager identifies any matter that is or is reasonably likely to result in a breach of this Agreement

(d) The federal and state securities laws impose liabilities under certain circumstances on persons who act in good faith, and therefore nothing in this Agreement will waive or limit any rights that the Company may have under those laws.

7. Termination.

(a) Either party may terminate this Agreement upon thirty (30) calendar days prior written notice (a “Termination Notice”) or such shorter period of time as the parties may agree in writing. Such prior notice shall also be given to the Commissioner of the Iowa Insurance Division.

6

(b) Termination of this Agreement shall not, however, affect liabilities and obligations incurred or arising from transactions initiated under this Agreement prior to the termination date, or consummation of any transactions initiated prior to the receipt by one party of the other party’s notice of termination. Following a Termination Notice, the Investment Manager shall work with the Company to effect a prompt and orderly transition of the portfolio; provided, however, that the Investment Manager will have no obligation to recommend any action with respect to, or to liquidate, the assets in the portfolio nor shall the Investment Manager be required to incur any out of pocket expense.

(c) Prior to any termination of this Agreement, the Company shall provide written notice of such termination to the Iowa Insurance Division.

Such causes may include, but are not restricted to, acts of God or of the public enemy, terrorism, acts of the state in its sovereign capacity, fires, floods, earthquakes, power failure, disabling strikes, epidemics, quarantine restrictions and freight embargoes.

20. Non-Exclusive Dealings with and by Investment Manager Parties; Conflicts of Interest.

(a) Although nothing herein shall require the Investment Manager to devote its full time or any material portion of its time to the performance of its duties and obligations under this Agreement, the Investment Manager shall furnish continuous investment management services for the Account and, in that connection, devote to such services such of its time and activity (and the time and activity of its employees) during normal business days and hours as it shall reasonably determine to be necessary for the Account to achieve its investment objective(s); provided, however, that nothing contained in this Section 20(a) shall preclude the Investment Manager Parties from acting, consistent with the foregoing, either individually or as a member, partner, shareholder, principal, director, trustee, officer, official, employee or agent of any entity, in connection with any type of enterprise (whether or not for profit), regardless of whether the Company, Account or any Investment Manager Party has dealings with or invests in such enterprise.

(b) The Company understands that the Investment Manager will continue to furnish investment management and advisory services to others, and that the Investment Manager shall be at all times free, in its discretion, to make recommendations to others which may be the same as, or may be different from those made to the Account. The Company further understands that the Investment Manager Parties may or may not have an interest in the securities whose purchase and sale the Investment Manager may recommend. Actions with respect to securities of the same kind may be the same as or different from the action which the Investment Manager Parties or other investors may take with respect thereto. Furthermore, the Company understands and agrees that each Investment Manager Party shall have the right to engage, directly or indirectly, in the same or similar business activities or lines of business as the Investment Manager and any other Investment Manager Party and no knowledge or expertise of any Investment Manager Parties or any opportunities available to such Investment Manager Parties shall be imputed to the Investment Manager or any other Investment Manager Parties.

11

(c) The Company agrees that the Investment Manager may refrain from rendering any advice or services concerning securities of companies of which any of the Investment Manager Parties are directors or officers, or companies as to which the Investment Manager Parties have any substantial economic interest or possesses material non-public information, unless the Investment Manager either determines in good faith that it may appropriately do so without disclosing such conflict to the Company or discloses such conflict to the Company prior to rendering such advice or services with respect to the Account.

(d) From time to time, when determined by the Investment Manager to be in the best interest of the Company, the Account may purchase securities from or sell securities to another account (including, without limitation, public or private collective investment vehicles) managed, maintained or trusteed by the Investment Manager or an affiliate at prevailing market levels in accordance with applicable law and utilizing such pricing methodology determined to be fair and equitable to the Company in the Investment Manager’s good faith judgment.

(e) Consistent with applicable law, the Company hereby authorizes the Investment Manager to effect securities transactions on behalf of the Account with its affiliated broker-dealers, and understands that such affiliated broker-dealers may retain commissions in connection with effecting any transactions for the Account. The Investment Manager and any affiliated broker-dealers are also hereby authorized, consistent with applicable law, by the Company to execute agency cross transactions on behalf of the Account. Agency cross transactions may facilitate a purchase or sale of a block of securities for the Account at a predetermined price and may avoid unfavorable price movements which might otherwise be suffered if the purchase or sale order were exposed to the market. However, the Investment Manager and its affiliated broker-dealers may receive commissions from, and therefore may have a potentially conflicting division of loyalties and responsibilities regarding, both parties to an agency cross transaction. The Company understands that its authority to the Investment Manager to effect agency cross transactions for the Company is terminable at will without penalty, effective upon receipt by the Investment Manager of written notice from the Company.

21. Aggregation and Allocation of Orders. The Company acknowledges that circumstances may arise under which the Investment Manager determines that, while it would be both desirable and suitable that a particular security or other investment be purchased or sold for the account of more than one of the Investment Manager’s clients’ accounts, there is a limited supply or demand for the security or other investment. Under such circumstances, the Company acknowledges that, while the Investment Manager will seek to allocate the opportunity to purchase or sell that security or other investment among those accounts on a fair and reasonable basis, the Investment Manager shall not be required to assure equality of treatment among all of its clients (including that the opportunity to purchase or sell that security or other investment will be proportionally allocated among those clients according to any particular or predetermined standards or criteria). Where, because of prevailing market conditions, it is not possible to obtain the same price or time of execution for all of the securities or other investments purchased or sold for the Account, the Investment Manager may average the various prices and charge or credit the Account with the average price.

12

22. Investment Manager Independent. For all purposes of this Agreement, the Investment Manager shall be deemed to be an independent contractor and shall have no authority to act for, bind or represent the Company or the Company’s shareholders in any way, except as expressly provided herein, and shall not otherwise be deemed to be an agent of the Company. Nothing contained herein shall create or constitute the Investment Manager and the Company as a member of any partnership, joint venture, association, syndicate, unincorporated business or other separate entity, nor shall anything contained herein be deemed to confer on any of them any express, implied, or apparent authority to incur any obligation or liability on behalf of any other person, except as expressly provided herein.

23. Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, both oral and written, between the parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement. There are no understandings between the parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement other than as expressed herein.

24. Severability. To the extent this Agreement may be in conflict with any applicable law or regulation, this Agreement shall be construed to the greatest extent practicable in a manner consistent with such law or regulation. The invalidity or illegality of any provision of this Agreement shall not be deemed to affect the validity or legality of any other provision of this Agreement.

25. Counterparts; Amendment.
