Genworth shall timely prepare and file (or cause to be timely prepared and filed) all federal income Tax Returns for the Consolidated Group. The Subsidiaries shall provide to Genworth all financial data and any other information and documentation reasonably requested by Genworth in connection with the filing of any such federal income Tax Returns. Genworth shall have the authority to make any tax elections it deems necessary or appropriate in its sole discretion.

Genworth shall timely prepare (or cause to be timely prepared) all State Combined or Consolidated Income Tax Returns.

Genworth shall be responsible for all payments of federal income tax due with respect to the Consolidated Group.

The Genworth Companies shall allocate the federal income tax liability of the Consolidated Group to each Member by multiplying the Consolidated Federal Income Tax Liability times a fraction, the numerator of which is the Member’s Separate Federal Income Tax Liability and the denominator of which is the sum of the Separate Federal Income Tax Liabilities of the Genworth Companies. The amount of the Consolidated Federal Income Tax Liability allocated to each Member shall not exceed the Separate Federal Income Tax Liability of such Member; provided, however, that for purposes of computing the Separate Federal Income Tax Liability of a Member, any income, deduction, or loss recognized by such Member in an intercompany transaction with another Member shall be taken into account as provided in Treasury Regulation § 1.1502-13.

In the event that there is a Benefited Member and a corresponding Loss Member:

i.If Parent is the Benefited Member, Parent shall pay to the Loss Member

ii.If Parent is the Loss Member, the Benefited Member shall pay to Parent

iii.If Parent is neither the Benefited Member nor the Loss Member, the Benefited Member shall pay to Parent and Parent shall pay to the Loss Member an amount equal to the excess of the Benefited Member’s Separate Federal Income Tax Liability over its allocation of the Consolidated Federal Income Tax Liability to the extent such tax benefit is attributable to losses of the Loss Member actually used to reduce Consolidated Federal Income Tax Liability taking into account the principles of Treasury Regulation §§ 1.1502-2, 1.1502-3, 1.1502-4, 1.1502-11, 1.1502-21.

Any of the Loss Member’s Losses which are not used to reduce Consolidated Federal Income Tax Liability and for which it has not been paid shall be retained by the Loss Member for possible future use in computing its Separate Federal Income Tax Liability.

In order to prevent a double benefit to a Member for utilization of any Losses, if a Member ceases to be a Member of the Consolidated Group, and Member has been paid for Excess Deemed Utilized Losses, Member shall pay to Parent the balance of any Excess Deemed Utilized Losses as of the date that the Member ceases to be a Member of the Consolidated Group, and payment shall be made within ninety (90) days of such date.

For purposes of Sections 3.02, 3.03, and 3.04 all computations of federal income tax shall be made in accordance with the Code and the regulations thereunder including, where relevant, Treasury Regulation § 1.1502-47.

All Payments to a New York Company as a Loss Member shall be recorded on such New York Company’s books as contributed surplus. Once a Loss Member is paid for the utilization of its Losses, the Loss Member cannot use such Losses in the calculation of its Separate Federal Income Tax Liability. As required by New York Insurance Department Circular Letter 1979-33, if the amount paid by a New York Company to Parent pursuant to this paragraph is greater than the amount of the New York Company’s share of the Consolidated Federal Income Tax Liability, then cash or securities having a fair market value equal to such excess shall be placed in escrow by Parent in order to help assure such New York Company’s enforceable right to recover its payment for utilization of Losses of another Member in the event that such New York Company generates future Losses which may be carried back to the year with respect to which such payment was made. The assets held in escrow shall be assets eligible as an investment for the New York Companies. Escrow assets may be released to Parent (and shall in appropriate cases be paid by Parent to the appropriate Member) from an escrow account at such time as the permissible period for the carryback of Losses has elapsed. The escrow established pursuant to this paragraph will be created pursuant to an agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit B.

All payments of Consolidated Federal Income Tax Liability determined under Sections 3.02, 3.03, and 3.04 shall be made within ninety (90) days of the payment of the applicable estimated or actual consolidated federal income tax, except where a refund is due Parent, in which case, it may defer payment to a Member to within ninety (90) days of receipt of such refund. All payments shall be made in cash or in securities eligible as investments for the New York Companies, valued at market value.

In the case of any Tax Contest with respect to any federal or state income Tax Return of the Consolidated Group (or corresponding group of corporations for state tax purposes), Genworth shall have the sole responsibility and right to control the prosecution of such Tax Contest, including the exclusive right to communicate with agents of the applicable Taxing Authority and to control, resolve, settle, or agree to any deficiency, claim, or adjustment proposed, asserted, or assessed in connection with or as a result of such Tax Contest. The Subsidiaries shall provide to Genworth any information, documentation and assistance reasonably requested by Genworth in connection with the preparation for and prosecution of any such Tax Contest by any Taxing Authority.

If taxable income, special deductions or credits reported in a consolidated federal income tax return of the Consolidated Group is changed or otherwise adjusted, including without limitation by the filing of an amended tax return, a carryback claim, or by the Internal Revenue Service or other appropriate authority, a recalculation of the tax liability for all parties to this Agreement shall be made.

Written reports shall be prepared by Parent reflecting the allocations of Consolidated Federal Income Tax Liability made pursuant to Sections 3.02, 3.03, and 3.04 for each taxable year of the Consolidated Group. Such reports shall be prepared and made available to Members within ninety (90) days after the filing of the applicable consolidated federal income tax return. Written reports shall also be prepared by Parent reflecting any adjustment to prior reports, including adjustments arising as a consequence of the filing of amended tax returns or audits by the Internal Revenue Service or other appropriate authority. Such reports will be prepared and made available to each Member promptly following the calculation of such adjustments, and any payments required pursuant to such reports shall be made within ninety (90) days of receipt of such reports. For purposes of making quarterly estimated tax payments of federal income taxes, Parent is authorized to prepare and make available to each of the Members written reports estimating each of such Member’s share of estimated tax payments under Section 6655 of the Code determined in accordance with the principles of Sections 3.02, 3.03, and 3.04.

The parties may not amend this Agreement to provide for any other method of allocation without prior approval by the Insurance Department of any state in which a Member is domiciled.
