thereof shall be held by the Company. The Company shall then reimburse the Reinsurer a portion of such excess recovery in an amount equal to the proportion that the Reinsurer’s payment under this Agreement bears to the total treaty reinsurance recoveries to the Company for Insured Losses for said loss occurrence(s). Provided, however, that in no event shall such reimbursement exceed the amount paid by the Reinsurer to the Company under this Agreement.
For purposes hereof, if a loss reimbursement received by the Company under TRIA is based on the Company’s Insured Losses in more than one loss occurrence and neither the Secretary of the Treasury nor his delagatee specifies the amount of loss allocable to each respective loss occurrence, the reimbursement shall be pro-rated in the proportion that the Company’s Insured Losses in each loss occurrence bears to the Company’s total Insured Losses resulting from all loss occurrences to which the reimbursement applies.

ARTICLE XIX — CURRENCY
Wherever the word “dollars” or the “$” symbol is used in this Agreement, it shall mean dollars of the United States of America, excepting in those cases where the Policy is issued by the Company in Canadian dollars, in which case it shall mean dollars of Canada. In the event the Company is involved in a toss requiring payment in United States and Canadian currency, the Company’s retention and the limit of liability of the Reinsurer shall be apportioned between the two currencies in the same proportion as the amount of net loss in each currency bears to the total amount of net loss paid by the Company. For the purposes of this Agreement, where the Company receives premiums or pays losses in currencies other than United States or Canadian currency, such premiums and losses shall be converted into United States dollars at the actual rates of exchange at which the premiums and losses are entered in the Company’s books.

ARTICLE XXII — INSOLVENCY
In the event of insolvency and the appointment of a conservator, liquidator, or statutory successor of the Company the portion of any risk or obligation assumed by the Reinsurer shall be payable to the conservator, liquidator, or statutory successor on the basis of claims allowed against the insolvent Company by any court of competent jurisdiction or by any conservator, liquidator, or statutory successor of the Company having authority to allow such claims, without diminution because of that insolvency, or because the conservator, liquidator, or statutory successor has failed to pay all or a portion of any claims. Payments by the Reinsurer shall be made directly to the Company or to its conservator, liquidator, or statutory successor, except where the contract of insurance or reinsurance specially provides another payee of such reinsurance in the event of the insolvency of the Company.

The expense thus incurred by the Reinsurer shall be payable subject to court approval out of the estate of the insolvent Company as part of the expense of conservation or liquidation to the extent of a proportionate share of the benefit which may accrue to the Company in conservation or liquidation, solely as a result of the defense undertaken by the Reinsurer.

or concerning its interpretation or validity and whether arising before or after termination of this Agreement has not been settled through negotiation, both parties agree to try in good faith to settle such dispute by nonbinding mediation, before resorting to arbitration. The parties shall choose a mediator within thirty (30) days of a written demand by either party for mediation under Part II of this Article XXIII. The mediator shall be a disinterested current or retired insurance or reinsurance officer knowledgeable in reinsurance matters. The parties shall have sixty (60) days from the selection of the mediator in which to mediate the dispute to resolution. In the event that mediation fails to resolve the dispute, the parties shall proceed to arbitration in accordance with Part III of this Article XXIII.
Part III — Arbitration
A.   Resolution of Disputes — As a condition precedent to any right arising hereunder, any dispute not resolved by mediation between the Company and the Reinsurer arising out of the provisions of this Agreement or concerning its interpretation or validity, whether arising before or after termination of this Agreement, shall be submitted to arbitration in the manner hereinafter set forth.
 
B.   Composition of Panel — Unless the parties agree upon a single arbitrator within 15 days after the receipt of a notice of intention to arbitrate, all disputes shall be submitted to an arbitration panel composed of two arbitrators and an umpire chosen in accordance with Paragraph C. hereof. The mediator from Part II many not be an arbitrator or an umpire.
 
C.   Appointment of Arbitrators — The members of the arbitration panel shall be chosen from disinterested current or retired insurance or reinsurance officers knowledgeable in reinsurance matters. Unless a single arbitrator is agreed upon, the party requesting arbitration (hereinafter referred to as the “claimant”) shall appoint an arbitrator and give written notice thereof by certified mail, to the other party (hereinafter referred to as the “respondent”) together with his notice of intention to arbitrate.
 
    Within 30 days after receiving such notice, the respondent shall also appoint an arbitrator and notify the claimant thereof by certified mail. Before instituting a hearing, the two arbitrators so appointed shall choose an umpire. If, within 20 days after the appointment of the arbitrator chosen by the respondent, the two arbitrators fail to agree upon the appointment of an umpire, each of them shall nominate three individuals to serve as umpire, of whom the other shall decline two and the umpire shall be chosen from the remaining two by drawing lots. The name of the individual first drawn shall be the umpire.
 
D.   Failure of Party to Appoint an Arbitrator — If the respondent fails to appoint an arbitrator within 30 days after receiving a notice of intention to arbitrate, the claimant’s arbitrator shall appoint an arbitrator on behalf of the respondent, such arbitrator shall then, together with the claimant’s arbitrator, choose an umpire as provided in Paragraph C. of Part III of this Article.
 
E.   Involvement of Other Reinsurers — If more than one reinsurer is involved in the same dispute, all such reinsurers shall constitute and act as one party for purposes of this Article and communications shall be made by the Company to each of the reinsurers constituting the one party; provided, however, nothing herein shall impair the right of such reinsurers to assert several, rather than joint, defenses or claims, nor be construed as changing the liability of the reinsurers under the terms of this Agreement from several to joint.
 
F.   If the Company is involved in a dispute under the terms of this Agreement and in one or more separate disputes with one or more other reinsurers in which common questions of law or fact are in issue, the Company or the Reinsurer, at its option, may join with such other reinsurers in a common arbitration proceeding under the terms of this Article. If the Company and such other reinsurers have commenced arbitration, the Reinsurer may at its option join such proceeding for the determination of the dispute between the Company and the Reinsurer.
12. No. RAMSumCX — 2005

 


 

G.   Submission of Dispute to Panel — Unless otherwise extended by the arbitration panel or agreed to by the parties, each party shall submit its case to the panel within 30 days after the selection of the umpire.
 
H.   Procedure Governing Arbitration — All proceedings before the panel shall be informal and the panel shall not be bound by the formal rules of evidence. The panel shall have the power to fix all procedural rules relating to the arbitration proceeding. In reaching any decision, the panel shall give due consideration to the customs and usages of the insurance and reinsurance business.
 
I.   Arbitration Award — The arbitration panel shall render its decision within 60 days after termination of the proceeding, which decision shall be in writing, stating the reasons therefor. The decision of the majority of the panel shall be final and binding on the parties to the proceeding.
 
J.   Cost of Arbitration — Unless otherwise allocated by the panel, each party shall bear the expense of its own arbitrator and shall jointly and equally bear with the other parties the expense of the umpire and the arbitration.
ARTICLE XXIV — SPECIAL CONDITIONS
The Company may terminate this Contract at any time by the giving of 30 days notice in writing to the Reinsurer upon the happening of any one of the following circumstances:
A.   A State Insurance Department or other legal authority orders the Reinsurer to cease writing business; or
 
B.   The 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; or
 
C.   The Reinsurer’s policyholders’ surplus has been reduced by 25% of the amount of surplus at the inception of this Contract; or
 
D.   The Reinsurer has become merged with, acquired or controlled by any company, corporation or individual(s) not controlling the Reinsurer’s operations at the inception of this Contract.
 
E.   The Reinsurer’s A.M. Best Rating has been assigned or downgraded below A- or Standard and Poor’s rating has been assigned or downgraded below A-.
The coverage afforded by this Contract shall cease as of the date of termination and the Reinsurer shall return the unearned premium net of ceding commission, if any. If coverage hereunder terminates while a claim covered by this Contract is in progress, the Reinsurer shall be liable subject to all other conditions hereof for its proportion of the entire claim, provided that the event giving rise to the claim started before such termination.
If the Company chooses to effect termination, it shall have the option to commute the Reinsurer’s liability for loss(es), whether reported or unreported, on policies covered by this Contract as of the effective date of termination. The Company shall submit a statement of valuation of the outstanding claim or claims showing the elements considered reasonable to establish the “ultimate net loss,” and the Reinsurer shall pay the amount requested. In the event the Company and the Reinsurer cannot agree on the statement of valuation of the Reinsurer’s liability under such policies, either party may request in writing that the difference be settles by a panel of three actuaries. Each party shall appoint
13. No. RAMSumCX — 2005

 


 

an actuary to access such liability within 15 days after receipt of the written request for commutation. Upon such appointment, the two actuaries shall appoint a third actuary. If the two actuaries fail to agree on the third actuary within 30 days of their appointment, each of them shall nominate three individuals, of whom the other shall decline two, and the final decision shall be made by drawing lots. The actuaries shall then investigate and capitalize such loss(es) within 30 days. As used herein, capitalize shall mean to determine the present value of ultimate net losses, without regard to the Reinsurer’s ability to pay such losses. The panel shall meet in Boston, Massachusetts, unless the Company and Reinsurer agree otherwise.
All actuaries shall be disinterested in the outcome of the commutation and shall be Fellows of the Society of Actuaries/Fellows of the Casualty Actuarial Society. Except as stated below, the expense of the actuaries and of the commutation shall be equally divided between the parties of the commutation.
The decision in writing of the actuaries, when filed with the parties hereto, shall be final and binding, except that if the Company does not agree with the capitalized value of the loss(es), the Company shall have no obligation to commute. In the event the Company does not agree with the capitalized value of the loss(es) and does not move forward with commutation, the expense of the actuaries [including reasonable expense of the actuary appointed by the Reinsurer] will be paid by the Company. If the Contract is commuted, payment by the Reinsurer to the Company or any other third party mutually agreed upon by the Reinsurer and the Company shall constitute a complete and final release of the Reinsurer in respect to its liability under this Contract.
ARTICLE XXV — RESERVES
A.   If a jurisdiction of the United States will not permit the Reassured, in the statements required to be filed with its regulatory authority(ies), to receive full credit as admitted reinsurance for any Reinsurer’s share of obligations, the Reassured shall forward to such Reinsurer a statement of the Reinsurer’s share of such obligations. Upon receipt of such statement the Reinsurer’s share of such obligations. Upon receipt of such statement the Reinsurer shall promptly apply for, and provide the Reassured with, a “clean,” unconditional and irrevocable Letter of Credit, in the amount specified in the statement submitted, with terms and bank acceptable to the regulatory authority(ies) having jurisdiction over the Reassured.
 
B.   “Obligations,” as used in this Article, shall mean the sum of losses paid and allocated loss adjustment expenses paid by the Reassured but not yet recovered from the Reinsurer, plus reserves for reported losses, allocated loss adjustment expenses and losses incurred but not reported.
 
C.   The Reinsurer hereby agrees that the Letter of Credit will provide for automatic extension of the Letter of Credit without amendment for one year from the date of expiration of said Letter or any future expiration date unless thirty (30) days prior to any expiration the issuing bank shall notify the Reassured by registered mail that the issuing bank elects not to consider the Letter of Credit renewed for any additional period. An issuing bank, not a “qualified bank” as defined by Regulation No. 133 promulgated by the Insurance Department of the State of New York, shall provide sixty (60) days notice to the Reassured prior to any expiration.
 
D.   Notwithstanding any other provision of this Contract, the Reassured or any successor by operation of law of the Reassured including, without limitation, any Liguidator, rehabilitator, receiver or conservator of the Reassured may draw upon such credit, without diminution because of the insolvency of any party hereto, at any time and undertakes to use and apply such credit for one or more of the following purposes only:

14. No. RAMSumCX — 2005


 

  1.   To pay the Reinsurer’s share or to reimburse the Reassured for the Reinsurer’s share of any obligations, as stipulated in the statement submitted by the Reassured to the Reinsurer, which is due to the Reassured and not otherwise paid by the Reinsurer.
 
  2.   In the event the Reassured has received effective notice of non-renewal of the Letter of Credit and the Reinsurer’s liability remains unliquidated and undischarged thirty (30) days prior to the expiry date of the Letter of Credit and place such sums in an interest bearing trust account to secure the continuing liabilities of the Reinsurer under this Contract until a renewal Letter of Credit acceptable to the regulatory authority(ies) having jurisdiction over the Reassured, or a substitute in lieu thereof acceptable to the regulatory authority(ies) having jurisdiction over the Reassured, has been received by the Reassured. The Reassured shall provide to the Reinsurer payment of any interest thereon accruing from such account.
 
  3.   To make refund of any sum which is in excess of the actual amount required for Sections 1. and 2. of this paragraph.
E.   At annual intervals or more frequently as determined by the Reassured, but never more frequently than quarterly, the Reassured shall prepare a specific statement, for the sole purpose of amending the Letter of Credit, of the Reinsurer’s share of any obligations. If the statement shows that the Reinsurer’s share of obligations exceeds the balance of credit as of the statement date, the Reinsurer shall, within thirty (30) days after receipt of notice of such excess, secure delivery to the Reassured of an amendment of the Letter of Credit increasing the amount of credit by the amount of such difference. If the statement shows, however, that the Reinsurer’s share of obligations is less than the balance of credit as of the statement date, the Reassured shall, within thirty (30) days after receipt of a written request from the Reinsurer, release such excess credit by agreeing to secure an amendment to the Letter of Credit reducing the amount of credit available by the amount of such excess credit.
 
F.   The bank shall have no responsibility whatsoever in connection with the propriety of withdrawals made by the Reassured or the disposition of funds withdrawn, except to assure that withdrawals are made only upon the order of properly authorized representatives of the Reassured. The Reassured shall incur no obligation to the bank in acting upon the credit, other than as appears in the express terms thereof.
ARTICLE XXVI — SERVICE OF SUIT
(This article applies to other than authorized Reinsurers and to Reinsurers who are domiciled outside the United States of America.)
This Service of Suit Article will 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 Agreement.
In the event of the failure of the Reinsurers to pay any amount claimed to be due hereunder, the Reinsurers, at the request of the Company, will 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 Reinsurers’ 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

15. No. RAMSumCX — 2005


 

United States. The Reinsurers, once the appropriate Court is selected, whether such court is the one originally chosen by the company and accepted by Reinsurers or is determined by removal, transfer, or otherwise, as provided for above, will comply with all requirements necessary to give said Court jurisdiction and, in any suit instituted against any of them upon this Agreement, will abide by the final decision of such Court or of any Appellate Court in the event of an appeal.
Service of process in such suit may be made upon Mendes & Mount, LLP, 750 7th Avenue, New York, NY 10019-6829.
The above-named are authorized and directed to accept service of process on behalf of Reinsurers in any such suit.
Further, pursuant to any statute of any state, territory or district of the United States that makes provision therefor, the Reinsurers hereby designate 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 their true and lawful attorney upon whom may be served any lawful process in any action, suit or proceedings instituted by or on behalf of the Company or any beneficiary hereunder arising out of this Agreement, and hereby designate the above-named as the person to whom the said officer is authorized to mail such process or a true copy thereof.
ARTICLE XXVII — CONFIDENTIALITY CLAUSE
All terms and conditions of this Agreement, any materials and any non-public personally identifiable information provided in the course of inspection shall be kept confidential by the Reinsurer as against third parties, unless the disclosure is required pursuant to process of law or unless the disclosure is to Reinsurer’s retrocessionaires, financial auditors, governing regulatory bodies or other entities with which Reinsurer may from time to time contract in accordance with the fulfillment of the terms of this Agreement and which disclosure shall comply with all state and federal statutes and regulations governing the disclosure of non-public personally identifiable information. “Non-public personally identifiable information” is financial or medical information of or concerning a public or obtained from the person who is the subject and which information is included in data files exchanged by the parties hereto. For the purposes hereof, the terms shall include data elements such as names and addresses of individuals. Disclosing or using this information for any purpose beyond the scope of this Agreement, or beyond the exceptions set forth above, is expressly forbidden without the prior consent of the Company.
ARTICLE XXVIII — AMENDMENTS
This Agreement may be amended by mutual consent of the parties expressed in an addendum; and such addendum, when executed by both parties, shall be deemed to be an integral part of this Agreement and binding on the parties hereto.
ARTICLE XXVIX — ENTIRE AGREEMENT
This written Contract and the underwriting information provided for its formation and mutually agreed letters of intent, clarification and/or understanding, if any, constitute the entire agreement between the parties. However, in no event shall there be any provision that provides a guarantee of profit, directly or indirectly, from the Reinsurer to the Company or from the Company to the Reinsurer.
