ARTICLE 1 — EXHIBITS COVERED

The Company shall reinsure with the Reinsurers and the Reinsurers shall accept reinsurance from the Company as set forth in Exhibits “A” and “B”, which are attached hereto and made part of this Contract, such Exhibits being entitled for purposes of identification as follows:

          Exhibit “A” Excess of Loss Reinsurance of General Liability

          Exhibit “B” Excess of Loss Reinsurance of Workers’ Compensation.

ARTICLE 2 — RETENTION BY COMPANY

This Contract applies only to such portion of any obligation of the Company as the Company retains net for its own account, and in calculating the amount of any loss hereunder and in computing the amount or amounts in excess of which this Contract attaches only loss or losses in respect to that portion of any obligation which the Company retains net for its own account shall be included.

It is agreed that the amount or amounts of the Reinsurers’ liability hereunder in respect of any losses shall not be increased by reason of the inability of the Company to collect from any other Reinsurers whether specific or general, any amount or amounts which may have become due from them whether such inability arises from the insolvency of such other Reinsurers or otherwise.

ARTICLE 3 — REINSURANCE PREMIUM

(a)		The Reinsurers’ premium for the reinsurance provided under this Contract shall be computed by the application of a rate of .003% to the Company’s net premium written on the business covered under Exhibits “A” and “B” subject to an annual minimum premium of $60,000 and an annual deposit premium of $67,500 for the combined Sixth Excess of Loss layer provided under Exhibits “A” and “B”.
(b)		The deposit premium as provided for in (a) above shall be payable to Reinsurers in four equal quarterly installments at the beginning of each calendar quarter. The Company shall undertake to furnish Reinsurers at the conclusion of each year a report of the net premiums written during such year. The difference between the

		annual deposit premium paid and the annual developed reinsurance premium for the Sixth Excess of Loss Reinsurance under Exhibits “A” and “B” computed in accordance with the provisions of (a) above shall be promptly paid by the debtor party.
(c)		The term “net premium written” shall mean gross premiums written by the Company on the business covered hereunder less return premiums for cancellations and reductions and less premiums on reinsurance which inures to the benefit of the Reinsurers. No deduction shall be made for dividends declared, paid or credited to policyholders of the Company.

ARTICLE 4 — SUBROGATION

The Company hereby agrees to enforce such subrogation rights as it may obtain by virtue of payments made under its policies, but in case the Company shall refuse or neglect to do so, the Reinsurers are hereby authorized and empowered to bring any appropriate action in the name of the Company or its policyholders or otherwise to enforce such rights.

The expense of any subrogation proceedings brought by the Company or the Reinsurers to enforce such rights shall be apportioned between the Company and the Reinsurers in the ratio of their respective interests in the total subrogation recovery but in the event there is a failure to make a subrogation recovery the expense of the proceedings shall be apportioned between the Company and the Reinsurers in the ratio of their respective interests in the total loss.

All subrogation recoveries made by either party subsequent to payments made by the Reinsurers under this Contract shall be applied as if made prior to said payments and all necessary adjustments shall be made between the Company and the Reinsurers as soon as practicable after said subrogation recovery is made.

The Company shall have the right, before the happening of the accident or occurrence to waive its right of subrogation.

ARTICLE 5 —TAX CLAUSE

In the event of the insolvency of the Company, the liquidator or receiver or statutory successor of the Company shall give written notice of the pendency of each claim against the Company on a policy or bond reinsured within a reasonable time after such claim is filed in the insolvency proceeding; and during the pendency of such claim, the Reinsurers may investigate such claim and interpose, at their own expense, in the proceeding where such claim is to be adjudicated any defense or defenses which it may deem available to the Company, its liquidator or receiver or statutory successor. The expense thus incurred by the Reinsurers shall be chargeable, subject to court approval, against the Company as a part of the expense of liquidation to the extent of such proportionate share of the benefit as shall accrue to the Company solely as a result of the defense undertaken by the Reinsurers.

This reinsurance shall be payable as hereinbefore in the above paragraph provided except as otherwise provided by Section 315 (relating to Fidelity and Surety Risks) of the Insurance Law of New York or except (a) where the Contract specifically provides another payee of such reinsurance in the event of the insolvency of the Company and (b) where the Reinsurers with the consent of the direct insured or insureds have assumed such policy obligations of the Reinsurers to the payees under such policies and in substitution for the obligations of the Company to such payees.

ARTICLE 9 — ARBITRATION

As a condition precedent to any right of action hereunder, any dispute arising out of this Agreement shall be submitted to the decision of a board of arbitration composed of two arbitrators and an umpire, meeting in Boston, Massachusetts unless otherwise agreed.

The members of the board of arbitration shall be active or retired disinterested officials of insurance or reinsurance companies, or Lloyds Underwriters. Each party shall appoint its arbitrator and the two arbitrators shall choose an umpire before instituting the hearing. In the event that either party should fail to choose an arbitrator within thirty (30) days following a written request by the other party to enter upon arbitration, the requesting party may choose two arbitrators who shall in turn choose an umpire before entering upon arbitration. In the event the two arbitrators fail to agree on an umpire either party shall have the right to submit the matter to the American Arbitration Association in effect at that time.

Each party shall present its case to the arbitrators within sixty (60) days following the date of their appointment. The board shall make its decision with regard to the custom and usage of the insurance and reinsurance business. The board shall issue its decision in writing based upon a hearing in which evidence may be introduced without following strict rules of evidence but

in which cross examination and rebuttal shall be allowed. The board shall make its decision within 60 days following the termination of the hearings unless the parties consent to an extension. The majority decision of the board shall be final and binding upon all parties to the proceeding. Judgement may be entered upon the award of the board in any court having jurisdiction thereof.

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 clause and communications shall be made by the Reassured to each of the Reinsurers constituting the one party, provided, however, that nothing therein shall impair the rights 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.

Each party shall bear the expense of its own arbitrator and shall jointly and equally bear with the other party the expense of the umpire. The remaining costs of the arbitration proceedings shall be allocated by the board.

ARTICLE 10 — OFFSET CLAUSE

Each party hereto shall have, and may exercise at any time and from time to time, the right to offset any balance or balances, whether on account of premiums or on account of losses or otherwise, due from such party to the other (or, if more than one, any other) party hereto under this Contract or under any other reinsurance agreement heretofore or hereafter entered into by and between them, and may offset the same against any balance or balances due or to become due to the former from the latter under the same or any other reinsurance agreement between them; and the party asserting the right of offset shall have and may exercise such right whether the balance or balances due or to become due to such party from the other are on account of premiums or on account of losses or otherwise and regardless of the capacity, whether as assuming insurer or as ceding insurer, in which each party acted under the agreement or, if more than one, the different agreements involved.

ARTICLE 11 — ADVANCES

If the Reinsurer is unauthorized in any State of the United States of America or the District of Columbia where authorization is required by insurance regulatory authorities, the Reinsurers will fund (provided particulars are received forty-five days prior to the date funding is required by the Company) outstanding losses by either cash advances, escrow accounts for the benefit of the Company, Letters of Credit, or a combination thereof, if a penalty would accrue to the Company on its statement without such funding. The Reinsurers shall have the sole option of determining the method of funding referred to above provided it is acceptable to the insurance regulatory authorities involved.

LOSS RESERVES: (U.S. Dollar Reinsurance Letter of Credit) (Applies only to those Reinsurers who are domiciled outside the United States of America who cannot qualify for credit by the State having jurisdiction over the Company’s loss reserves).

As regards policies or bonds issued by the Company coming within the scope of this Agreement, the Company agrees that when it shall file with the Insurance Department or set up on its books reserves for losses covered hereunder which it shall be required to set up by law it will forward to the Reinsurers a

statement showing the proportion of such loss reserves which is applicable to them. The Reinsurers hereby agree that they will apply for and secure delivery to the Company a clean irrevocable Letter of Credit issued by Citibank N.A. in an amount equal to Reinsurers’ proportion of said loss reserves.

The Company undertakes to use and apply any amounts which it may draw upon such Credit pursuant to the terms of the Agreement under which the Letter of Credit is held, and for the following purposes only:

	A.		To pay the Reinsurers’ share or to reimburse the Company for the Reinsurers’ share of any liability for loss reinsured by this Agreement.
	B.		To make refund of any sum which is in excess of the actual amount required to pay Reinsurers’ share of any liability reinsured by this Agreement.

Citibank N.A. shall have no responsibility whatsoever in connection with the propriety of withdrawals made by the Company or the disposition of funds withdrawn, except to see that withdrawals are made only upon the order of properly authorized representatives of the Company.

ARTICLE 12 — SERVICE OF SUIT

ARTICLE 13 — ERRORS AND OMISSIONS

In making such assignments the Company will be bound by the following principles:

SECTION 7 — PAYMENT BY THE COMPANY

The Company shall be the sole judge as to what claims are covered under its policies, as to the liability of the Company therefor and as to the amounts which the Company should pay thereon, and the Reinsurers shall be bound by the judgement of the Company as to such matters.

All settlements of losses effected by the Company shall be binding upon the Reinsurers, and the Reinsurers shall be liable for their proportion thereof.

SECTION 8 — CLAIMS AGAINST REINSURERS

The Company shall, after it has paid any amount of ultimate net loss for which the Reinsurers may be liable under this Exhibit, submit to the Reinsurers a definite claim for such amount.

In such calculation, the value of each case as of such date shall be determined based upon a rate of discount to be mutually agreed and by the use of the latest available remarriage, survivorship, and mortality tables to determine probabilities of remarriage and normal life expectancies.

	B.		If the parties agree as to the amount of the Reinsurers’ ultimate liability to the Company on account of the claims resulting from such accident or occurrence, the Reinsurers shall, on or before the date as of which the claims were valued, redeem their liability hereunder by the payment of such amount to the Company.
	C.		If the parties cannot, at such first appraisal, reach an agreement as to the amount of the Reinsurers’ ultimate liability to the Company on account of such accident or occurrence, settlement hereunder shall be deferred for one year, when a second appraisal of the amount due the Company from the Reinsurers shall be made in accordance with the provisions of Paragraph A of this Section. If the parties then agree as to the amount of the Reinsurers’ ultimate liability to the Company on account of such accident or occurrence, settlement shall be made as outlined in Paragraph B of this Section.
	D.		If the parties do not reach an agreement as a result of the second appraisal, settlement hereunder shall be deferred for another year, at the end of which a third and last such appraisal of the Reinsurers’ ultimate liability to the Company shall be made. If, as a result of such appraisal, the parties agree on the amount of the Reinsurers’ ultimate liability to the Company, settlement will be made as provided in Paragraph B of this Section. If they do not reach an agreement as a result of such third appraisal, the amount of the Reinsurers’ liability to the Company on account of such accident or occurrence shall promptly be determined by arbitration, in accordance with Article 9 of the Contract. The arbitrators, in determining the value of the claims against the Company on account of such accident or occurrence, shall follow the provisions of Paragraph A of this Section. The amount, if any, determined by the arbitration to be due the Company from the Reinsurers shall be paid in the manner provided in Paragraph B of this Section.

This Exhibit B is attached to and forms part of the Workers’ Compensation and General Liability Sixth Excess of Loss Reinsurance Contract issued to LIBERTY MUTUAL INSURANCE COMPANY and LIBERTY MUTUAL FIRE INSURANCE COMPANY.
