If a timely Notice of Objection is received by the Buyer, then the Closing Surplus Statement (as revised in accordance with clause (1) or (2) below) shall become final and binding upon the parties hereto on the earlier of (1) the date the Seller and the Buyer resolve in writing any differences they have with respect to any matter specified in the Notice of Objection and (2) the date any matters properly in dispute are finally resolved in writing by the Accounting Firm (as defined below).

7.3 Limitations.

(a) Anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, (i) the Buyer (on behalf of itself and any of its Affiliates including the Company post-Closing) shall not make any claim for indemnification pursuant to Section 7.2(a)(i) until the aggregate amount of all such claims exceeds One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) (the “Threshold”) and if the Threshold is exceeded, the Seller shall be required to pay only those amounts in excess of the Threshold up to the Maximum Indemnification Amount, and (ii) the Seller shall not be required to make indemnification payments for any claim for indemnification pursuant to Section 7.2(a)(i) to the extent indemnification payments would exceed in the aggregate twenty percent (20%) of the Purchase Price less the amount of the Policyholders’ Surplus (as adjusted pursuant to Section 2.4 and Section 5.12) (the “Maximum Indemnification Amount”); provided, however, the Seller’s obligation and Liability for any and all breaches of the representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.2 (Authorization, Validity and Enforceability), Section 3.3 (No Conflicts), Section 3.5 (Organization and Qualification of the Company; No Subsidiaries), Section 3.6 (Capitalization of the Company), Section 3.7 (Title to Shares), Section 3.19 (Tax Matters), and Section 3.22 (No Brokers) shall not be subject to the Threshold and shall not count toward determining whether the Threshold or the Maximum Indemnification Amount has been reached.

In addition, in connection with an alleged breach of the Seller’s representations, warranties and covenants under this Agreement, the Buyer’s Damages shall be net of all reserves established by the Company as of the Closing Date in connection with the particular item or contingency in dispute.

(b) The obligation of the Seller to indemnify the Buyer under Section 7.2(a) above shall expire, with respect to any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of the Seller, on the date on which the survival of such representation, warranty, covenant or agreement shall expire in accordance with Section 7.1 above, except with respect to any written claims for indemnification which the Buyer has delivered to the Seller prior to such date.

(c) The obligation of the Buyer to indemnify the Seller under Section 7.2(b) above shall expire, with respect to any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of the Buyer, on the date on which the survival of such representation, warranty, covenant or agreement shall expire in accordance with Section 7.1 above, except with respect to written claims for indemnification which the Seller has delivered to the Buyer prior to such date.

(d) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Article VII hereof of notice of any claim or the commencement of any Action, the indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Article VII hereof, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the claim or the commencement of that Action stating in reasonable detail the nature and basis of such claim and a good faith estimate of the amount thereof, provided that the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any Liability which it may have to the indemnified party unless and only to the extent such failure materially and adversely prejudices the ability of the indemnifying party to defend against or mitigate Damages arising out of such claim. If any claim shall be brought against an indemnified party, it shall notify the indemnifying party thereof and the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein, and to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party, and to settle and compromise any such claim or Action; provided, however, that the indemnifying party shall not agree or consent to the application of any equitable relief upon the indemnified party without its written consent. After notice from the indemnifying party to the indemnified party of its election to assume the defense of such claim or Action, the indemnifying party shall not be liable for other expenses subsequently incurred by the indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof; provided, however, that if the indemnifying party elects not to assume such defense, the indemnified party may retain counsel satisfactory to it and to defend, compromise or settle such claim on behalf of and for the account and risk of the indemnifying party, and the indemnifying party shall pay all reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel for the indemnified party promptly as statements therefore are received; and, provided, further, that the indemnified party shall not consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or compromise without the written consent of the indemnifying party which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Buyer and the Seller each agree to render to each other such assistance as may reasonably be requested in order to insure the proper and adequate defense of any such claim or proceeding. The indemnified party shall also have the right to select its own counsel, at its own expense, to represent the indemnified party and to participate in the defense of such claim, as applicable.

- 44 -

7.4 Remedies Exclusive. Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements, the remedies provided in this Article VII shall be the exclusive remedies of the parties hereto from and after the Closing in connection with any breach of a representation or warranty, or non-performance, partial or total, of any covenant or agreement contained herein. The provisions of this Article VII shall apply to claims for indemnification asserted as between the parties hereto as well as to third-party claims.

7.5 Mitigation. The parties shall cooperate with each other with respect to resolving any indemnifiable claim, including by making commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate or resolve any such claim or Liability. Each party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to address any claims or Liabilities that may provide a basis for an indemnifiable claim such that each party shall respond to any claims or Liabilities in the same manner it would respond to such claims or Liabilities in the absence of the indemnification provisions of this Agreement.

7.6 Treatment of Payments. All payments made pursuant to this Article VII shall be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price.

During such seven-year or longer period, the Seller and its Representatives shall, upon reasonable notice and for any reasonable business purpose, have access during normal business hours to examine, inspect and copy such Buyer Books and Records. After such seven-year or longer period, the Company may dispose of any of such Buyer Books and Records.

(b) The Seller agrees (i) to keep confidential all of the Company Books and Records, (ii) not to use any information contained in the Company Books and Records, except in connection with the transactions contemplated by and services to be provided by Seller pursuant to the Termination Endorsement or for tax, accounting, regulatory, contract compliance or legal-related purposes and (iii) not reveal or disclose the Company Information to any Person other than its Representatives who need to know the Company Information for purposes of the transactions contemplated by the Termination Endorsement and providing the services to be provided by the Seller pursuant to the Termination Endorsement or for tax, accounting, regulatory, contract-compliance or other legal-related purposes; it being understood that all such Persons will be informed of the confidential nature of the Company Information and the terms of this Section 5.7.

The term “Company Information” does not include any information which at the time of disclosure to the Seller or thereafter is generally available to and known by the public (other than as a result of a disclosure directly or indirectly by the Seller or any of its Representatives).

ANNEX A

TERMINATION ENDORSEMENT TO TREATY REINSURANCE AGREEMENT

THIS TERMINATION ENDORSEMENT TO THE TREATY REINSURANCE AGREEMENT (this "Termination") is dated as of _________, ____, between GMAC Direct Insurance Company, a Missouri corporation ( the "Company") and Motors Insurance Corporation, a Michigan corporation (the "Reinsurer").

WITNESSETH

WHEREAS, the Company and the Reinsurer are party to the Treaty Reinsurance Agreement effective as of October 1, 2000 (the "Reinsurance Agreement"); and

WHEREAS, under the Stock Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) dated as of _______, ___ between Reinsurer and Maiden Holdings North America, Ltd. (“Maiden”), Maiden has acquired and Reinsurer has sold all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of the Company to Maiden; and

WHEREAS, the SPA requires that this Termination be executed immediately following the closing of the sale of the Company’s issued and outstanding capital stock.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1. Definitions. For all purposes of this Termination, capitalized terms used herein (including the preamble and the recitals hereof) but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Reinsurance Agreement, as amended by this Termination.

2. Amendments. Upon the effectiveness of this Termination, the Reinsurance Agreement shall be amended as follows:

(a) Section 7 of the Reinsurance Agreement shall be amended and restated as follows:

“This agreement shall terminate with respect to new business at 12:01 a.m. on the day of the closing (the “Termination Time”) of the sale of all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of the Company to Maiden Holdings North America, Ltd. pursuant to that Stock Purchase Agreement dated as of ____, ___ between Maiden Holdings North America, Ltd. and Reinsurer. Such termination shall not affect, however, any obligation of either party assumed or incurred hereunder relating to reinsurance coverage for policies in force as of the Termination Time, all of which shall be fully performed and discharged on a run-off basis.”

(b) A new Section 13 shall be added to the Reinsurance Agreement as follows:

“13. (a) The Company grants to the Reinsurer as of the Termination Time authority in all matters relating to the administration of the Business Reinsured, including the authority (i) to communicate directly with all other reinsurers of that business and to collect on behalf of the Company reinsurance recoverables thereunder and (ii) to service and manage the Business Reinsured, including without limitation the authority to (A) collect and receipt for the premiums on Business Reinsured; (B) to adjust and settle claims under the Business Reinsured; (C) set and establish loss reserves; and (D) any and all other acts or duties that would otherwise be performed by the Company necessary and appropriate to run off the Business Reinsured, to the extent such authority may be granted pursuant to applicable law. In exercising such authorities, the Reinsurer may delegate the performance of any duty described above to a third party; provided that no such delegation shall relieve the Reinsurer of its obligations hereunder. Subject to the foregoing limitation, effective as of the Termination Time, the Company hereby appoints the Reinsurer as its attorney-in-fact with respect to the rights, duties and privileges and obligations of the Company in and to the Business Reinsured, with full power and authority to act in the name, place and stead of the Company with respect to such contracts, including without limitation, the power to service such contracts, to adjust, defend, settle and to pay all claims, to recover salvage and subrogation for any losses incurred and to take such other and further actions as may be necessary or desirable to effect the transactions contemplated by this agreement, provided that the Reinsurer covenants to exercise such authority in a businesslike manner, and shall be liable to the Company for any damages arising from a breach thereof. As part of the foregoing, the Company grants full authority to the Reinsurer to adjust, settle or compromise all losses hereunder, and all such adjustments, settlements and compromises shall be binding on the Company. The Company agrees to cooperate fully with the Reinsurer in the transfer of such administration, and the Reinsurer agrees to be responsible for such administration.

(b) The Company agrees that so long as the Reinsurer or its designee shall not be in breach of its obligations to service and administer the Business Reinsured under this agreement, the Company will not take action to prevent or limit the Reinsurer or its designee from servicing or administering the Business Reinsured as contemplated by this agreement.

(c) In the event that, pursuant to applicable law or this agreement, the Company shall have the right to direct the Reinsurer with respect to any matter that is the subject of the grant of authority pursuant to (a) above and the Company exercises such right and directs the Reinsurer to take an action and such direction is disputed by the Reinsurer, the Company shall indemnify and hold harmless the Reinsurer from any damages incurred by the Reinsurer in following such direction (an “Indemnifiable Company Direction”); provided, however, that no such direction by the Company shall be an Indemnifiable Company Direction to the extent that such direction was proper under the circumstances as measured from the perspective of a professional claims examiner not affiliated with any party.”

3. Limitation. Except as expressly stated herein, all of the terms, covenants and provisions of the Reinsurance Agreement shall remain unamended and shall continue to be, and shall remain, in full force and effect in accordance with their respective terms. This Termination is only effective in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it is given and shall not be effective for any other purpose, and shall not be deemed to be a waiver of, amendment of, or consent to or modification of any other term or provision of the Reinsurance Agreement.

4. Reinsurance Agreement References. From and after the effectiveness of this Termination (as set forth in Section 7 hereof), each reference in the Reinsurance Agreement to “this agreement”, “hereunder”, “hereof” or words of like import, and each reference to the Reinsurance Agreement by the words “thereunder”, “thereof” or words of like import in any other document executed in connection with the Reinsurance Agreement, shall mean and be a reference to the Reinsurance Agreement, as amended or otherwise modified by this Termination.

5. Successors and Assigns. This Termination shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns and all future parties to the Reinsurance Agreement.

6. Counterparts. This Termination may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the different parties hereto on separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all the counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument. A facsimile signature on a counterpart of this Termination shall be binding to the same extent as an original signature by the signatory.

7. Effectiveness. This Termination shall be effective on the Closing after it is executed by the Company and the Reinsurer.

8. Governing Law. THIS TERMINATION SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF MISSOURI.

9. Arbitration. All disputes arising under this Termination shall be subject to arbitration under Section 8 of the Reinsurance Agreement.

- 42 -

(i)

A breach by the Buyer or any of its Affiliates of any surviving representation or warranty made by the Buyer or any such Affiliate in this Agreement;

(ii)

A breach by the Buyer or any of its Affiliates of any covenant or agreement of the Buyer or any such Affiliate in this Agreement and to be performed post-Closing; and

(c) The Seller’s and the Buyer’s respective indemnification obligations with respect to Taxes are governed exclusively by Article VIII; provided, however, that the procedures outlined in Section 9.3(d) shall be followed with respect to claims made pursuant to Article VIII.

(d) For purposes of calculating the amount of Damages incurred arising out of or relating to any breach of a representation or warranty by the Seller (but not for purposes of determining if a breach shall have occurred), the references to knowledge Material Adverse Effect or other materiality qualifications shall be disregarded.

Section 9.3. Limitations.

(a) Anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, (i) the Buyer (on behalf of itself and any of its Affiliates including the Company post-Closing) shall not make any claim for indemnification pursuant to Section 9.2(a)(i) until the aggregate amount of all such claims and claims for indemnification pursuant to Section 9.2(a)(i) exceeds One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) (the “Threshold”) and if the Threshold is exceeded, the Seller shall be required to pay only those amounts in excess of the Threshold Amount up to the Maximum Indemnification Amount, and (ii) the Seller shall not be required to make indemnification payments for any claim for indemnification pursuant to Section 9.2(a)(i) to the extent indemnification payments would exceed in the aggregate Twenty Million Dollars ($20,000,000.00) (the “Maximum Indemnification Amount”); provided, however, the Seller’s obligation and liability for any and all breaches of the representations and warranties set forth in (i) Section 4.1, 4.2, 4.3(b), 4.5, 4.6, 5.1, 5.2, 5.7(c), or 5.7(d) or as set forth in Article VIII hereof shall not be subject to the Threshold and shall not count toward determining whether the Maximum Indemnification Amount has been reached, and (ii) Section 5.14 shall not be subject to the Threshold. In determining the amount to which the Buyer is entitled to assert a claim for indemnification pursuant to this Article IX, only actual Damages, net of all Tax benefits actually realized by the Buyer in the year of receipt of any indemnity payment. The Seller and the Buyer acknowledge and agree that any event, transaction, circumstance, or liability, whether contingent or accrued, for which adequate reserves by the Company have been established on the Closing Date, shall not be used at any time as the basis of any claim for indemnification under Article VIII or this Article IX, or considered in any way in determining whether the Threshold or the Maximum Indemnification Amount has been reached. In addition, in connection with an alleged breach of the Seller’s representations, warranties and covenants under this Agreement, the Buyer’s Damages shall be net of all reserves established by the Company as of the Closing Date in connection with the particular item or contingency in dispute.

- 43 -

(b) The obligation of the Seller to indemnify the Buyer under Section 8.1 and Section 9.2(a) above shall expire, with respect to any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of the Seller, on the date on which the survival of such representation, warranty, covenant or agreement shall expire in accordance with Sections 8.6 and 9.1 above, except with respect to any written claims for indemnification which the Buyer has delivered to the Seller prior to such date.

(c) The obligation of the Buyer to indemnify the Seller under Section 9.2(b) above shall expire, with respect to any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of the Buyer, on the date on which the survival of such representation, warranty, covenant or agreement shall expire in accordance with Section 9.1 above, except with respect to written claims for indemnification which the Seller has delivered to the Buyer prior to such date.

(d) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Article IX hereof of notice of any claim or the commencement of any Action, the indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Article IX hereof, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the claim or the commencement of that Action stating in reasonable detail the nature and basis of such claim and a good faith estimate of the amount thereof, provided that the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have to the indemnified party unless and only to the extent such failure materially and adversely prejudices the ability of the indemnifying party to defend against or mitigate damages arising out of such claim. If any claim shall be brought against an indemnified party, it shall notify the indemnifying party thereof and the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein, and to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party, and to settle and compromise any such claim or Action; provided, however, that the indemnifying party shall not agree or consent to the application of any equitable relief upon the indemnified party without its written consent. After notice from the indemnifying party to the indemnified party of its election to assume the defense of such claim or Action, the indemnifying party shall not be liable for other expenses subsequently incurred by the indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof; provided, however, that if the indemnifying party elects not to assume such defense, the indemnified party may retain counsel satisfactory to it and to defend, compromise or settle such claim on behalf of and for the account and risk of the indemnifying party, and the indemnifying party shall pay all reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel for the indemnified party promptly as statements therefor are received; and, provided, further, that the indemnified party shall not consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or compromise without the written consent of the indemnifying party which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Buyer and the Seller each agree to render to each other such assistance as may reasonably be requested in order to insure the proper and adequate defense of any such claim or proceeding. The indemnified party shall also have the right to select its own counsel, at its own expense, to represent the indemnified party and to participate in the defense of such claim, as applicable.

- 44 -

Section 9.4 Remedies Exclusive. Except as otherwise specifically provided in Article II, Section 7.6, Section 7.13 and Article VIII hereof, the remedies provided in this Article IX shall be the exclusive remedies of the parties hereto from and after the Closing in connection with any breach of a representation or warranty, or non-performance, partial or total, of any covenant or agreement contained herein. The provisions of this Article IX shall apply to claims for indemnification asserted as between the parties hereto as well as to third-party claims.

Section 9.5 Mitigation. The parties shall cooperate with each other with respect to resolving any indemnifiable claim, including by making commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate or resolve any such claim or Liability. Each party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to address any claims or Liabilities that may provide a basis for an indemnifiable claim such that each party shall respond to any claims or Liabilities in the same manner it would respond to such claims or Liabilities in the absence of the indemnification provisions of this Agreement.

Section 9.6 Treatment of Payments. All payments made pursuant to this Article IX shall be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price.

Section 10.7 Governing Law, Jurisdiction, Waiver of Jury Trial and Specific Performance.

(b) Subject to Section 10.8, each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, sitting in New York, New York, or, if such court does not have jurisdiction, the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York for purposes of enforcing this Agreement. In any such action, suit or other proceeding, each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally waives and agrees not to assert by way of motion, as a defense or otherwise any claims that it is not subject to the jurisdiction of the above court, that such action or suit is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of such action, suit or other proceeding is improper. Each of the parties hereto also agrees that any final and unappealable judgment against a party hereto in connection with any action, suit or other proceeding shall be conclusive and binding on such party and that such award or judgment may be enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction, either within or outside of the United States. A certified or exemplified copy of such award or judgment shall be conclusive evidence of the fact and amount of such award or judgment. Without limiting the foregoing, each party agrees that service of process on such party by written notice as provided in Section 10.6 shall be deemed effective service of process on such party.

(c) Subject to Section 10.8, each of the Parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives any and all right to trial by jury in any legal proceeding arising out of or related to this Agreement or the Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby. The waivers in Section 10.7(b) and in this Section 10.7(c) have been made with the advice of counsel and with a full understanding of the legal consequences thereof and shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, it is agreed that any party hereto shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of Section 7.6 of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions thereof, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled hereunder or otherwise.

Section 10.8 Arbitration.

(a) Any disputes, controversies, or claims, arising out of or relating to one or more Arbitrable Agreement, including, without limitation, in respect of the validity, formation, or breach of any such agreement, shall be finally settled by binding arbitration as set forth below.

- 47 -

(b) The Arbitrable Agreement Parties intend to provide for a single forum for the resolution of any disputes between or among them within paragraph (a) above. Each Arbitrable Agreement Party, by virtue of executing such agreement containing a clause providing for arbitration under the arbitration provisions of this Agreement, shall be deemed to have irrevocably agreed, for itself and any other party that claims under such Arbitrable Agreement by or through such Arbitrable Agreement Party, to submit to binding arbitration hereunder. Without prejudice to whether or not assignment or delegation is otherwise permissible under an Arbitrable Agreement, each Arbitrable Agreement Party hereby covenants (i) not to assign any of its rights, or delegate or contract for third-party performance of any of its obligations, under any Arbitrable Agreement to or with any party that is not an Arbitrable Agreement Party unless such other party agrees in writing to submit to arbitration hereunder; and (ii) to indemnify any other Arbitrable Agreement Party for any additional costs of arbitration, or any inability of such other Arbitrable Agreement Party to prove its case in arbitration, or obtain an adequate remedy, that the arbitration panel determines likely resulted from a failure to comply with (i). If a party obligated to arbitrate by virtue of having executed the written agreement specified in (i) above is an Affiliate of the original Arbitrable Agreement Party, such party shall for all other purposes of an arbitration hereunder be deemed to be an Arbitrable Agreement Party. Otherwise, such a party shall be deemed to be an “Arbitration Joinder Party.” In any event, the trustee under the Trust Agreement shall be deemed to be an Arbitration Joinder Party.

(c) Each Arbitrable Agreement Party hereby appoints the Buyer or the Seller (or their respective successors), as the case may be, as its exclusive agent and attorney in fact to demand arbitration, to appoint an arbitrator, to receive notices relating to arbitration, and to conduct arbitration on its behalf. The Buyer shall be such agent for all Arbitrable Agreement Parties that are Affiliates of the Buyer at the time the arbitration is demanded, and all such Arbitration Agreement Parties, together with the Buyer, shall constitute the “Buyer Parties.” The Seller shall be such agent and attorney in fact for all Arbitrable Agreement Parties that are Affiliates of the Seller at the time the arbitration is demanded, and all such Arbitration Agreement Parties, together with the Seller, shall constitute the “Seller Parties.” The Buyer Parties shall constitute a single party for purposes of the arbitration, and shall jointly file any brief or other submission to the arbitration panel, and the arbitration panel shall have the power to order discovery from, and award relief against, any of them regardless of whether they otherwise participate in the arbitration. The Seller Parties shall constitute a single party for purposes of the arbitration, and shall jointly file any brief or other submission to the arbitration panel, and the arbitration panel shall have the power to order discovery from, and award relief against, any of them regardless of whether they otherwise participate in the arbitration. Any Arbitration Joinder Party against whom arbitration is demanded shall be deemed to have joined in the arbitrator appointment made on behalf of the Arbitrable Agreement Party that assigned to, delegated to, or contracted with, it for purposes paragraph (b) above, or, in the case of the trustee under the Trust Agreement, in the appointment made on behalf of the Buyer Parties. Such Arbitration Joinder Party shall have the right, however, to submit separate briefs and other submissions to the arbitration panel, and any award made by the arbitration panel against it shall be stated separately within the award.

- 48 -

(d) The Seller or the Buyer may commence arbitration by written demand to the other (and, if arbitration is against sought an Arbitration Joinder Party, to such Arbitration Joinder Party), specifying: (i) the general nature of the disputes, controversies or claims; (ii) the Arbitrable Agreements under which they arise; (iii) the Arbitrable Agreement Parties on whose behalf arbitration is demanded; (iv) the Arbitrable Agreement Parties and Arbitration Joinder Parties against whom arbitration is sought; and (vi) whether the demanding party contends that the disputes, controversies or claims are principally under this Agreement or under the Insurer SPAs. Whichever of the Buyer or the Seller receives such demand may, within ten (10) business days of receipt, respond with a counter-claim demand providing the same information and/or by disputing whether the disputes, controversies or claims are principally under this Agreement or under the Insurer SPAs.

(e) If the Seller and the Buyer agree that the disputes, controversies or claims to be arbitrated are principally under this Agreement or under the Insurer SPAs, or if the demand so asserted and was not timely disputed, then the arbitration shall be administered by the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”) in accordance with its Commercial Arbitration Rules then in effect, including its Procedures for Large, Complex Commercial Disputes, as modified herein (the “AAA Rules”). In addition, if there is a timely-asserted dispute as to whether the disputes, controversies or claims to be arbitrated are principally under this Agreement or under the Insurer SPAs, then the arbitration shall be administered by the AAA in accordance with the AAA Rules, provided that, if the arbitration panel determines that the disputes, controversies or claims to be arbitrated are not principally under this Agreement or under the Insurer SPAs, it shall award to the party that disputed such contention (i.e., the contention by the other party that the disputes, controversies or claims to be arbitrated were principally under this Agreement or under the Insurer SPAs) its share of any additional costs by virtue of administration by the AAA and under the AAA Rules, including the costs and expenses of any expert witness that would not have otherwise been required. In all other cases, arbitration shall proceed under the then-most recent ARIAS-US Practical Guide to Reinsurance Arbitration Procedures, as modified herein (“ARIAS Rules”).

(f) Arbitration shall be before a panel of three disinterested arbitrators, one selected by the Seller on behalf of the Seller Parties, one selected by the Buyer on behalf of the Buyer Parties, and an umpire selected by the two arbitrators so selected. No arbitrator may be appointed until after expiration of the time period for determining whether the arbitration is to proceed under the AAA Rules or under the ARIAS Rules. For all arbitrations proceeding under the ARIAS Rules, the arbitrators and umpire shall be either present or former executives or officers of insurance or reinsurance companies, or arbitrators certified by ARIAS-US. After expiration of the time period for determining whether the arbitration is to proceed under the AAA Rules or under the ARIAS Rules, either party may issue a written demand sent to the other by overnight courier requiring that both parties name their respective arbitrator on a specified business day no less than thirty (30) days after the date of the naming demand. If either party fails to appoint its arbitrator by such deadline, the other party may appoint a neutral arbitrator for it. Should the two arbitrators fail to choose an umpire within thirty (30) days of the appointment of the second arbitrator, the umpire shall be selected in accordance with the AAA Rules or the ARIAS-US Umpire Selection Procedure, as the case may be.

- 49 -

(g) The arbitration procedures shall be as follows:

(i)

The seat of arbitration shall be New York, New York, but the arbitration panel may order that the hearings be held elsewhere.

(ii)

The parties may, by agreement, suspend any deadline hereunder or under the AAA Rules or the ARIAS Rules for the purpose of meeting and conferring in an attempt in good faith to agree upon a resolution of such dispute.

(iii)

The arbitration panel shall allow such discovery as the panel determines is appropriate under the circumstances. Any dispute regarding discovery shall be determined by the arbitration panel.

(iv)

The arbitration panel shall not be obligated to follow the strict rules of law or evidence. In addition, while the arbitration panel shall interpret all of the Arbitrable Agreements in accordance with their intent, it shall also specifically apply to such agreements, where applicable, the custom and practice of the insurance and reinsurance industry with a view to effecting the general purpose of such agreements.

(v)

The arbitration panel may award full or partial summary judgment under the same circumstances as a United States federal district court. In addition, where the arbitration panel determines that full and final relief can be given with respect to less than all of disputes, claims or controversies asserted in the arbitration, it may issue a final partial award, on which judgment may be entered to the same extent as if a full final award.

(vi)

Any award shall be in writing and shall set forth the reasons for the disposition of any claim, and the arbitration panel shall have thirty (30) days thereafter to reconsider and modify such decision if any party so requests within ten (10) days after the decision.

(vii)

The majority decisions of the arbitration panel shall be final, binding, and non-appealable with respect to all persons, including (without limitation) persons who have failed or refused to participate in the arbitration process.

(viii)

The arbitrator panel shall have authority to award relief under legal or equitable principles, including interim or preliminary relief, and to allocate responsibility for the costs of the arbitration and to award recovery of reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses in such manner as is determined to be appropriate by the arbitration panel, except as provided above. The arbitration panel shall have no authority to award exemplary, special, or punitive damages.

(ix)

Judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator(s) may be entered in any court having personal and subject matter jurisdiction. The Buyer and the Seller each hereby submit to the personal jurisdiction of the Federal and State courts of New York for the purpose of confirming any such award and entering judgment thereon in accordance with the Federal Arbitration Act, notwithstanding any other choice of law provision in any Arbitrable Agreement.

- 50 -

(x)

All arbitration proceedings hereunder, and all evidence given or discovered pursuant hereto, shall be maintained in confidence by all parties and by the arbitration panel, except as necessary to enforce any award or in any subsequent dispute between the parties.

(xi)

The fact that the arbitration procedures hereunder shall have been or may be invoked shall not excuse any party from performing its obligations under this Agreement or any Transaction Document, and during the pendency of any such procedure all parties shall continue to perform their respective obligations in good faith.

(xii)

All applicable statutes of limitation shall be tolled while the procedures hereunder are pending. The parties will take such action, if any, required to effectuate such tolling.

Section 10.9 Amendments and Waivers. This Agreement may not be modified or amended except by an instrument or instruments in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of any such modification or amendment is sought. Either party hereto may, only by an instrument in writing, waive compliance by the other party hereto with any term or provision of this Agreement on the part of such other party hereto to be performed or complied with. The waiver by any party hereto of a breach of any term or provision of this Agreement shall not be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach.

Section 10.10 Severability. Any term or provision of this Agreement that is invalid or unenforceable in any situation in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions hereof or the validity or enforceability of the offending term or provision in any other situation or in any other jurisdiction.

Section 10.11 Expenses. Except as otherwise provided herein, whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, each of the parties hereto will bear its own costs and expenses (including legal fees and expenses) incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.

Section 10.12 Construction. The parties have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any of the provisions of this Agreement. Any reference to any federal, state, local, or foreign statute or law shall be deemed also to refer to all rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, unless the context requires otherwise.

From and after the Effective Time, the Company hereby cedes, and the Reinsurer hereby assumes, one hundred percent (100%) of all Losses for which the Company is otherwise liable in respect of the Reinsurance Contracts. For the avoidance of doubt, Losses reinsured hereunder and any payments of Claims by the Reinsurer shall be net of Inuring Reinsurance, whether collectible or not, unless such non-collectibility is due to any negligent, erroneous, fraudulent or criminal act or omission to the extent attributable to the Reinsurer or any of its Affiliates or any of their respective officers, directors, employees or agents acting in such capacity, in which case the Reinsurer’s obligations hereunder shall be expanded to include payment for the portion of any such Losses that are not covered by Inuring Reinsurance that shall be non-collectible due to such an act or omission; provided that the Company shall have used commercially reasonable efforts, at its expense, to pursue collection of such Inuring Reinsurance and the failure to collect such Inuring Reinsurance shall have been primarily the result of such negligent, erroneous, fraudulent or criminal act or omission .

Section 2.2 Transfer of Existing Loss Reserves.

(a) On the Closing Date, the Company shall convey one hundred percent (100%) of the Loss Reserves for the Existing Contracts to the Reinsurer as follows:

(i) cash and securities in an amount equal to the estimate (set forth as item 2 in Schedule A, estimated as of the date set forth as item 1 of Schedule A) of the aggregate sum of cash and the FMV of the assets and securities held in Pre-Existing Trust Accounts (the “Pre-Existing Trust Asset FMV”), which cash and securities shall be retained by the Company on a funds withheld basis (the initial Funds Withheld Amount as of the Closing Date) as security for the Secured Obligations; and

(ii) cash in an amount, if any, by which the estimate of Loss Reserves for the Existing Business (set forth as item 3 in Schedule A, estimated as of the date set forth as item 1 of Schedule A) exceeds the initial Funds Withheld Amount referred to in Section 2.2(a)(i), which amount (the initial “Loss Reserve Transfer Amount,” set forth as item 4 in Schedule A) shall be conveyed by the Company to the Reinsurer on the Closing Date by depositing the same by wire transfer of immediately available funds into the QSA Trust.

(b) Within thirty (30) days following the Closing Date, the Reinsurer shall perform a calculation of the actual Funds Withheld Amount (by calculating the actual Pre-Existing Trust Asset FMV), and the actual Loss Reserves, all as of the Closing Date, and, on the basis of those calculations, shall calculate an adjusted Loss Reserve Transfer Amount (all such figures, collectively, the “Actual Loss Reserve Figures”), and, if different from the corresponding figures set forth in Schedule A, the Reinsurer shall send to the Company its computation of the Actual Loss Reserve Figures together with its work papers used to compute the same (the “Loss Reserve True Up Report”). Such actual Loss Reserves shall be calculated utilizing the established actuarial practices as followed by the Company as of June 30, 2008 in respect of the Existing Contracts, as well as the reserve requirements, statutory accounting rules and actuarial principles applicable to the Company as of the Effective Time. Failure of the Reinsurer to deliver the Loss Reserve True Up Report within the time period specified herein shall be deemed acceptance by the Reinsurer of the amounts set forth in Schedule A as the Actual Loss Reserve Figures.

- 7 -

(c) Within ten (10) days following the Company’s receipt of the Loss Reserve True-Up Report, the Parties shall confer in good faith with regard to any disputed calculations and an appropriate adjustment shall be made to the Actual Loss Reserve Figures as agreed upon by the Parties. If the Parties are unable to agree on an appropriate adjustment within twenty (20) days of the Loss Reserve True Up Report, the same procedures described in Section 3.1(iv) for the determination and payment of the final “Actual UPR Transfer Amount” shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the determination of the Actual Loss Reserve Figures.

(d) Following final determination of the Actual Loss Reserve Figures: (i) the difference between the initial Loss Reserve Transfer Amount and the actual Loss Reserve Transfer Amount (the “Loss Reserve Transfer Adjustment”) shall, if positive, be paid to the Company from the QSA Trust and, if negative, deposited by the Company into the QSA Trust; and (ii) the initial Funds Withheld Amount as of the Closing Date shall be adjusted to the actual Funds Withheld Amount as of the Closing Date .

(e) From and after the Effective Time, the Reinsurer shall maintain as a liability on its statutory financial statements adequate reserves for all liabilities ceded under this Agreement. The Reinsurer shall provide the Company with its periodic reports filed with its insurance regulators and a copy of its audited financial statements along with the audit report thereon within fifteen (15) days of the Reinsurer’s filing of such statements and reports with the insurance regulator of its jurisdiction of domicile.

PAYMENTS, OFFSET, AND SECURITY

Section 3.1 Premium.

(a) Unearned Premium Reserves and Premiums.

(i) As full premium for the Existing Contracts ceded under this Agreement, the Company shall transfer to the Reinsurer one hundred percent (100%) of the Unearned Premium Reserves held by the Company relating to such ceded business and one hundred percent of all Premiums collected on account of the Existing Contracts on or after the Closing Date (which Premiums, if any, shall be deposited into the QSA Trust) but only to the extent such Premiums were not reflected in the Unearned Premium Reserves transferred to the Reinsurer pursuant to this Section 3.1. Any Premiums collected on Existing Contracts on or after the Closing Date that were reflected in the Unearned Premium Reserves shall be retained by the Company in accordance with Section 3.7.

- 8 -

(ii) On the Closing Date, the Company shall deposit by wire transfer of immediately available funds into the QSA Trust an amount (the “Initial UPR Transfer Amount”) equal to the amount identified in as Item 5 of Schedule A, representing an estimate of the Unearned Premium Reserves for the Existing Contracts as of the Closing Date. On the Closing Date, the Company shall deliver to Reinsurer a schedule of Premiums that shall not have been collected from the applicable ceding company and with respect to which an amount shall be included in the Unearned Premium Reserve transferred as of the Closing Date (the “Uncollected Premium Schedule”).

(iii) Within thirty (30) days following the Closing Date, the Reinsurer shall recalculate the amounts specified in Section 3.1(a)(ii) considering the post-Closing Date information available to the Parties (such calculations resulting in the calculation of the “Actual UPR Transfer Amount”) and, if different from the Initial UPR Transfer Amount, the Reinsurer shall send to the Company its computation of the Actual UPR Transfer Amount together with its work papers used to compute the same and, if different from the Uncollected Premium Schedule delivered as of the Closing Date, an updated Uncollected Premium Schedule (the “UPR True Up Report”). Failure of the Reinsurer to deliver the UPR True Up Report within the time period specified herein shall be deemed acceptance by the Reinsurer of the Initial UPR Transfer Amount as the Actual UPR Transfer Amount and the initial Uncollected Premium Schedule as the final Uncollected Premium Schedule.

(iv) Within ten (10) days following the Company’s receipt of the UPR True Up Report, the Parties shall confer in good faith with regard to the Actual UPR Transfer Amount and, if necessary, an appropriate adjustment shall be made to the amounts due or payable pursuant to this Section 3.1(a) as agreed upon by the Parties and to the Uncollected Premium Schedule. If the Parties are unable to agree on the Actual UPR Transfer Amount or Uncollected Premium Schedule within twenty (20) days of the Company’s receipt of the UPR True Up Report, “Alternative Accountants,” whose decision on the matter shall be binding on the Parties, shall be designated by agreement between the Company and the Reinsurer. If the Parties fail to agree on the selection of the Alternative Accountants, the Alternative Accountants shall be selected by mutual agreement of each of the Company’s and the Reinsurer’s outside independent auditors. The Alternative Accountants shall conduct such analysis as they deem appropriate, during a period not to exceed thirty (30) days after they are selected, to determine the amounts which they conclude should have been reflected in the UPR True Up Report or the Uncollected Premium that should have been reflected in the Uncollected Premium Schedule and shall issue their decision (which shall be rendered in writing and shall specify the reasons for the decision) within fifteen (15) days after the conclusion of their analysis. The Alternative Accountants’ decision shall include a determination of the Actual UPR Transfer Amount, the amounts which they have determined should be used for the UPR True Up Report and a determination of the UPR Adjustment (as that term is defined in Section 3.1(a)(v)) due to the Reinsurer or the Company, as the case may be, and a determination of the final Uncollected Premium Schedule. Each Party shall make available to the other Party and the Alternative Accountants such work papers as may be reasonably necessary to calculate the Actual UPR Transfer Amount and UPR Adjustment and determine the final Uncollected Premium Schedule under this Section 3.1(a)(iv). No Party shall have any ex parte discussions or communications, directly or indirectly, with the Alternative Accountants regarding the subject matter of a dispute arising under this Section 3.1(a)(iv), unless the Party seeking such discussions or communications first obtains the other Party’s written consent to such ex parte contact with the Alternative Accountants. For the avoidance of doubt, in the event of any dispute with respect to the UPR True Up Report or the Uncollected Premium Schedule, such dispute shall be governed by this Section 3.1(a)(iv) and the procedures set forth herein, and not by the provisions of Article 7.

- 9 -

(v) On the fifth (5^th) business day following the deemed acceptance of, the mutual written agreement of the Company and the Reinsurer to, or the determination by the Alternative Accountants of, the final Actual UPR Transfer Amount, if the premium required under Section 3.1(a)(i) using such final Actual UPR Transfer Amount exceeds the Initial UPR Transfer Amount, the Company shall deposit funds into the QSA equal to the difference, and if the premium so calculated is less than the Initial UPR Transfer Amount, the Company shall be paid such difference with funds from the QSA Trust (the amount so transferred being herein called the “UPR Adjustment”).

(b) The Company’s Fronted Business; Fronted Contract Premiums and Ceding Commissions. Subject to Section 3.5, as premium for the Fronted Contracts ceded under this Agreement (the “Fronted Premiums”), the Company shall promptly deposit by wire transfer of immediately available funds into the QSA Trust one hundred percent (100%) of the collected Premiums attributable to the Fronted Contracts, net of a ceding commission in an amount equal to the actual out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Company for amounts paid or payable by, or on behalf of, the Company to persons who are not Affiliates of the Company to acquire the Fronted Contracts, including all commissions and brokerage payments and any adjustments thereto (the “Fronting Acquisition Costs”), and net of any premium or premium deposit paid or payable by the Company for Inuring Reinsurance that shall not have been paid by the Reinsurer or one of its Affiliates (the “Fronted Inuring Reinsurance Costs”). If, during any quarter, the aggregate FMV of the cash and assets retained in the Security Facility equals or exceeds the aggregate amount of the Secured Obligations as calculated as of the end of the prior quarter with adjustments to reflect Claims incurred, Losses paid, reserve adjustments, business written and other matters affecting the amount of the Secured Obligations, then the Company shall transfer directly to the Reinsurer any Fronted Premiums that are collected by the Company during such calendar quarter.

- 10 -

Section 3.2 Offset Rights.

Each Party hereto, and each of its respective Affiliates at the time an offset is asserted, shall have, and may exercise at any time and from time to time, the right to offset any balance or balances due to the other Party or any of its Affiliates at the time an offset is asserted, whether arising under this Agreement, any of the Transaction Documents, or any other reinsurance agreement heretofore or hereafter entered into by and between them, and regardless of whether on account of Premiums, Ceding Commissions, or Losses related to or arising under the Existing Contracts or Fronted Contracts or any other amount related to or arising under any of the Transaction Documents or otherwise; provided, however, that in the event of the insolvency of a Party hereto or any of its Affiliates, offsets shall only be allowed in accordance with the provisions of Applicable Law.

(a) The Reinsurer is authorized to collect Premiums for the Existing Contracts and Fronted Contracts from reinsureds of the Company and shall promptly deposit such Premiums into the QSA Trust, net of the applicable Ceding Commission, provided that if, during any quarter, the aggregate amount of cash and assets retained in the Security Facility equals or exceeds the aggregate amount of the Secured Obligations as calculated as of the end of the prior quarter with adjustments to reflect Claims incurred, Losses paid, reserve adjustments, business written and other matters affecting the amount of the Secured Obligations, then the Reinsurer may retain any net Premiums collected during such calendar quarter for its own benefit. To the extent any Premiums are collected directly by the Company, the Company shall so advise the Reinsurer and, depending on whether the aggregate amount of cash and assets retained in the Security Facility equals or exceeds the aggregate amount of the Reinsurer’s Secured Obligations, shall promptly deposit them into the QSA Trust or remit them to the Reinsurer as the case may be, net of the applicable Ceding Commission which shall be retained by the Company. The Reinsurer and the Company agree to maintain accounting and operational records and books in adequate detail so as to identify the specific Existing Contracts, Fronted Contracts and reinsureds of the Company with respect to all collected Premiums.

(b) The Reinsurer shall: (i) timely pay any return premium coming due under the Existing Contracts or Fronted Contracts payable on or after the Closing Date; or (ii) promptly reimburse the Company for any of the foregoing amounts that are instead paid by the Company.

Section 3.4 Reports and Remittances.

(a) Except as to the Security Facility which shall be settled quarterly, the Parties shall conduct monthly settlements based upon monthly bordereaux to be provided by or on behalf of the Reinsurer evidencing the amount due or to be due in a form, and containing such detail, as is agreed to by the Parties. Such settlements shall take into account and fully settle any profit commission, return commission, loss corridor payment, or other similar premium or commission adjustments payable to or by the Company pursuant to the terms of any Reinsurance Contract, which adjustments, whether positive or negative, shall be credited to or charged against the Reinsurer, as the case may be. Each Party shall pay or credit in cash or its equivalent to the other all net amounts for which it may be liable under the terms and conditions of this Agreement within thirty (30) days after receipt of each monthly bordereau.

- 11 -

(b) The Company and the Reinsurer shall furnish each other with such records, reports and information with respect to the Losses, Claims, Inuring Reinsurance, Unearned Premium Reserve, the Security Facility, or the reinsurance contemplated hereby as may be reasonably required by the other Party to comply with any internal reporting requirements or reporting requirements of any Governmental Authority or to prepare and complete such Party’s quarterly and annual financial statements that are, in the case of reports to be provided by the Reinsurer, consistent with records, reports or information currently provided by GMAC Re to the Company, subject to any changes to Applicable Law. In addition, the Reinsurer shall provide the Company with (i) monthly reports within thirty (30) days following the end of each month and in such form as agreed by the Parties, (A) identifying all Claims in excess of Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000) or involving consequential, exemplary, punitive or similar extra contractual damages, or any loss in excess of the limits arising under or covered by any Existing Contract or Fronted Contract, and (B) identifying all adjustments to Premiums or applicable Ceding Commissions, including any adjustments to ceding companies, third-party commissions or brokerage payments pursuant to the underlying terms of the Reinsurance Contracts, which adjustments, once settled through the settlement process provided for under the applicable Reinsurance Contract or paid to or collected from, the applicable third-party or broker through a disbursement from or deposit to the applicable Pre-Existing Trust Account, shall automatically increase or decrease the Funds Withheld Amount by amounts equivalent to the settlements, as the case may be, which monthly reports under this subsection (i) shall be consistent with reports currently provided by GMAC Re to the Company (ii) quarterly reports within thirty (30) days following the end of each quarter setting forth the Funds Withheld Amount and adjustments thereto during such quarter and the FMV of the assets held in the QSA Trust as of the end of such quarter, and (iii) such additional information as may be reasonably requested by the Company with respect to any such reports, which requested additional information shall be consistent with additional information requests currently made by the Company of GMAC Re, subject to any changes in Applicable Law.

(c) If the Company or the Reinsurer receives notice of, or otherwise becomes aware of, any inquiry, investigation, proceeding, from or at the direction of a Governmental Entity, or is served or threatened with a demand for litigation, arbitration, mediation or any other similar proceeding relating to the Reinsurance Contracts, the Company or the Reinsurer, as applicable, shall promptly notify the other party thereof, whereupon the parties shall cooperate in good faith and use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to resolve such matter in a mutually satisfactory manner in light of all the relevant business, regulatory and legal facts and circumstances.

(d) Each Party shall have the right, through authorized representatives and upon reasonable advance notice during normal business hours, to periodically audit and inspect all books, records, and papers of the other Party solely in connection with the Reinsurance Contracts, the Inuring Reinsurance and any reinsurance hereunder or claims in connection therewith. Each Party shall treat the other Party’s books, records, and papers in confidence. A Party shall be permitted to conduct such audits no more frequently than semi-annually unless the Reinsurer’s A.M. Best rating at any time falls below A-, in which case the Company shall be permitted to audit the Reinsurer on a quarterly basis. In addition, if the Reinsurer’s A.M. Best rating falls below A-, the Company may place, at its expense, one or more employees or other authorized representatives on-site at the Reinsurer’s office facilities, including the office facilities of GMAC Re, for the purpose of monitoring the Reinsurer’s performance under this Agreement. The Reinsurer shall provide such employee(s) or representative(s) with reasonable office accommodations and access to the Reinsurer’s officers, employees, books, records, and reports related to the Reinsurance Business to enable meaningful and proper oversight and monitoring of the Reinsurer’s performance and duties hereunder.

Section 3.5 Funding of Pre-Existing Trusts and Adjustment to Funds Withheld Amount.

(a) In the event the Company is required to fund any Pre-Existing Trust Account established on or after the Effective Time, the Company shall deposit by wire transfer of immediately available funds into such Pre-Existing Trust Account one hundred percent (100%) of the collected Premiums attributable to the Fronted Contract(s) secured thereunder (or such lesser amount as may be required pursuant to the terms of the Fronted Contract(s)), net of the applicable Ceding Commission. In the event collected Premiums are insufficient to timely satisfy the collateral obligations under any Fronted Contract, the Company shall withdraw funds from the QSA Trust equal to the shortfall and deposit such funds into the Pre-Existing Trust Account, provided that if any such withdrawal would cause the QSA Trust to be underfunded pursuant to the terms of the Trust Agreement, then the Reinsurer shall deposit its own funds into the Pre-Existing Trust Account to cover such shortfall. All funds deposited into a Pre-Existing Trust Account shall increase the Funds Withheld Amount by an equivalent amount.

(b) To the extent the Company is required to add additional funds to a Pre-Existing Trust Account under the terms thereof or under the terms of any of the Reinsurance Contracts, the Company shall withdraw such funds from the QSA Trust and deposit such funds into the Pre-Existing Trust Account, and the Funds Withheld Amount shall be increased by an equivalent amount.

(c) Without limiting the authority granted to the Reinsurer pursuant to Article 4(b), to the extent the Company is entitled to withdraw, and does withdraw, funds from a Pre-Existing Trust Account under the terms of the applicable Pre-Existing Trust Agreement, such amount shall be payable by the Company to the applicable ceding company under a Reinsurance Contract to pay Claims or the Company shall (i) pay any such amount directly to the Reinsurer only if and to the extent the Company is satisfied that, in the absence of such deposit, the QSA Trust will remain fully funded as provided in Section 3.6(b), after accounting for such withdrawal from the Pre-Existing Trust Account, or (ii) in all other cases, deposit such equivalent amount into the QSA Trust.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the assets in the Pre-Existing Trust Accounts will be used as collateral only in respect of the Company’s obligations under the Reinsurance Contracts to which those accounts are related.

- 13 -

(e) Subject to the last sentence of Section 3.6(b) and to any monthly adjustments to the Funds Withheld Amount as reflected by the reports delivered to the Company pursuant to Section 3.4(b), the Funds Withheld Amount shall automatically be adjusted to reflect (i) actual deposits by the Company of funds provided by the Reinsurer into the Pre-Existing Trust Accounts; and (ii) actual withdrawals from the Pre-Existing Trust Accounts.

(f) In the event the Company shall be entitled to withdraw any amount held in a Pre-Existing Trust Account for its own benefit, promptly following receiving notice of such withdrawal right, it shall, whether or not requested to do so by the Reinsurer, immediately cause such amount to be withdrawn and, subject in all cases to Section 3.5(c), upon receipt thereof deliver the amount of such withdrawal to the Reinsurer.

Section 3.6 Credit for Reinsurance and Security Facility.

(a) The Reinsurer agrees that so long as this Agreement shall be in force, it will have capital and surplus of not less than the amount necessary to comply with the Applicable Laws of its domiciliary jurisdiction. The Reinsurer agrees to maintain reserves consistent with the Applicable Laws of any jurisdiction having regulatory authority over Reinsurer.

(b)

(i) To assure that the Company can take full reserve credit on its statutory financial statements for the reinsurance ceded to the Reinsurer under this Agreement, the Reinsurer’s liabilities under this Agreement shall be fully secured by assets maintained in a “Security Facility.”

(ii) Such Security Facility shall consist of (i) the Funds Withheld Amount, as such amount is adjusted each calendar quarter to an amount equal to the FMV of the cash and assets held in the Pre-Existing Trust Accounts as of the end of such calendar quarter, and (ii) the QSA Trust, which the Reinsurer shall fund in accordance with Section 3.6(d). The Company shall have the option, at its sole discretion, to deposit, at any time, the Funds Withheld Amount in the QSA Trust.

(c) Subject to the applicable Pre-Existing Trust Agreements, the Company shall have the unfettered and unconditional right to reimburse itself, in whole or in part, for any amounts owed to the Company by the Reinsurer under this Agreement, and otherwise unpaid, out of the Funds Withheld Amount, assets held in the Pre-Existing Trust Account, or by withdrawal from the QSA Trust.

- 14 -

(d) No later than thirty (30) days following the end of each calendar quarter other than the fourth quarter of each year, the Reinsurer shall deliver a report to the Company setting forth the Reinsurer’s calculation of the Secured Obligations as of the end of such quarter for the sole purpose of evaluating the adequacy of funds in the QSA Trust. The Parties shall confer in good faith with regard to any disputes regarding the calculation or amount of Secured Obligations. If the Parties are unable to agree on an appropriate adjustment to the calculations of the Secured Obligations within twenty (20) days of the Company’s receipt of such calculation, the same procedures described in Section 3.1(iv) for the determination and payment of the final “Actual UPR Transfer Amount” shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the calculation of Secured Obligations for the calendar quarter at issue. If the final calculation shows that the amount of Secured Obligations exceeds one hundred percent (100%) of the sum of the Funds Withheld Amount and the FMV of assets held in the QSA Trust, in each case as of the end of the quarter at issue, the Reinsurer shall, within ten (10) days after the final calculation is agreed to, secure delivery to the Company or the QSA Trustee of an increase in cash and eligible securities held in the QSA Trust in an amount equal to such shortfall for deposit to the QSA Trust. If, however, the final calculation shows that such sum as of the report date exceeds one hundred two (102%) of the Secured Obligations, the Company shall instruct, within ten (10) days after receipt of written request from the Reinsurer, the QSA Trustee to release such excess funds from the QSA Trust to the Reinsurer. In the event the Reinsurer’s A.M. Best rating at any time falls below A-, then the Parties shall calculate the Reinsurer’s Secured Obligations, and make any corresponding adjustments to the Reinsurer’s collateral obligations, as set forth herein, on a monthly basis rather than a quarterly basis. For purposes of calculating the Secured Obligations with respect to the fourth quarter of each year, the Reinsurer shall deliver a report to the Company no later than sixty (60) days prior to year-end setting forth the Reinsurer’s calculation of the estimated Secured Obligations as of the end of such year. Any disputes between the Parties regarding such calculation shall be resolved in accordance with the procedures outlined in this Section 3.6(d). If pursuant to the calculation described in the preceding sentence, the Reinsurer shall be obligated to deliver additional cash or eligible securities for deposit to the QSA Trust, the Reinsurer shall deliver such cash or eligible securities no later than ten (10) days prior to the year-end at issue to ensure the Company is able to receive full reserve credit on its statutory financial statements for the reinsurance ceded to the Reinsurer under this Agreement.

(e) The investment income on all the funds held in the QSA Trust will be credited to the Reinsurer, and the Reinsurer shall be entitled, subject to the terms of the Trust Agreement, to withdraw such income on a periodic basis. The Company hereby authorizes the Reinsurer to direct the investment of the funds held under the Trust Agreement consistent with the terms and conditions thereof. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company and Reinsurer agree that the investment income earned on funds held in the Pre-Existing Trust Accounts shall be deemed investment income of the Reinsurer on the Funds Withheld Amount.

(f) The Reinsurer’s obligations under this Section 3.6 shall remain in effect until the termination, cancellation or expiration of the Reinsurer’s obligations under this Agreement.

(g) Following the Effective Time, the Reinsurer shall bear all costs and expenses necessary for the establishment and maintenance of the QSA Trust and the Pre-Existing Trust Accounts and shall reimburse the Company to the extent such costs are paid by the Company.

Section 3.7 Collection of Premiums.

Following the Closing Date and as part of its obligations to administer the Reinsurance Contracts pursuant to Article 4, the Reinsurer or its designated Affiliate shall use commercially reasonable efforts to collect any uncollected Premium listed on the final Uncollectible Premium Schedule with respect to which an Unearned Premium Reserve shall have been transferred as of the Closing Date. All such Premiums collected by the Reinsurer or such Affiliate shall be deposited directly into an account (or accounts) designated by, and issued in the name of, the Company, provided that the aggregate Premiums that the Reinsurer shall be required to deposit into the Company’s account(s) hereunder shall not exceed the final Unearned Premium Reserve calculated pursuant to Section 3.1. In the event any Premium listed on the Uncollected Premium Schedule shall not have been collected within ninety (90) of the later of the Closing Date or the date such Premium shall be due and payable, following thirty (30) days written notice to the Reinsurer, the Company may take over the collection of all uncollected Premiums reflected in the Unearned Premium Reserve and to pursue any actions deemed appropriate by the Company to collect such Premiums or preserve and protect all of the Company’s rights, title and interests therein, including, without limitation, commencing arbitration, litigation or any taking any other legal action, unless the Reinsurer shall elect to pay to the Company the amount of such uncollected Premium. Any premiums collected by the Reinsurer or its designated Affiliate pursuant to this Section 3.7 shall be the sole and exclusive property of the Company and, notwithstanding Section 3.2, shall not be subject to setoff in any form by the Reinsurer or any of its Affiliates. In addition to any other reports provided pursuant to Section 3.4, the Reinsurer shall provide the Company with a monthly report setting forth, for each Reinsurance Contract, the collected and uncollected portion of the Unearned Premium Reserve attributable to such Reinsurance Contract as of the end of each month.

ARTICLE 4

CLAIMS AND CLAIMS UNDERWRITING AND OTHER ADMINISTRATION

(a) On and after the Effective Time, the Company will provide prompt notice to the Reinsurer or its designee of all Claims (but only to the extent such Claims are not otherwise known or reported to the Reinsurer or any of its Affiliates by GMAC Re), and the Reinsurer or its designee will have the obligation to investigate and defend, as applicable, at its own expense, any Claim affecting this Agreement. At the request of the Reinsurer or such designee, the Company will jointly associate with the Reinsurer, at the expense of the Reinsurer, in the defense or control of any Claim, suit or proceeding involving this reinsurance, and the Company shall cooperate with the Reinsurer or such designee in every respect to procure the most favorable disposition of such claim, suit or proceeding. In addition, the Company shall have the right, at its sole option and expense, to monitor and consult with the Reinsurer regarding the defense or administration of any Claim, suit or proceeding involving the Reinsurance Contracts that exceeds or involves more than Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000.00).

- 16 -

(b) The Company grants to the Reinsurer, or one or more of the Reinsurer’s Affiliates designated by the Reinsurer, as of the Effective Time authority in all matters relating to the administration of the Reinsurance Contracts and any Claims thereunder, including the authority (i) to direct trustees of Pre-Existing Trust Accounts or the QSA Trustee to disburse amounts to pay Claims from the Pre-Existing Trust Accounts or the QSA Trust or to disburse funds on behalf of the Company to the Reinsurer but only the extent expressly permitted pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Pre-Existing Trust Agreements or the QSA Trust Agreement, as applicable, (ii) to communicate directly with all other reinsurers of those contracts and to collect on behalf of the Company reinsurance recoverables thereunder that relate solely to the Reinsurance Contracts, and (iii) subject to the Fronting Agreement, to handle the placement, production, underwriting, service and management of the Reinsurance Contracts, including without limitation the authority to (A) solicit, accept and receive submissions for Fronted Contracts or renewals of Insurance Contracts; (B) to secure, at its own expense, reasonable underwriting information through reporting agencies or other appropriate sources relating to each submission; (C) to issue, renew and countersign reinsurance contracts and endorsements relating to Reinsurance Contracts; (D) to collect and receipt for the premiums on Reinsurance Contracts; (v) to adjust and settle claims under the Reinsurance Contracts; (E) set and establish loss reserves for the Reinsurance Contracts; and (F) any and all other acts or duties that would otherwise be performed by the Company necessary and appropriate to the Reinsurance Contracts, to the extent such authority may be granted pursuant to Applicable Law and the Reinsurer, or one or more of the Reinsurer’s Affiliates designated by the Reinsurer, shall perform all such functions as outlined herein. In exercising such authorities, the Reinsurer or any such Affiliate may delegate the performance of any duty described above to a third party; provided that no such delegation shall relieve the Reinsurer of its obligations hereunder. Subject to the forgoing limitation, effective as of the Effective Time, the Company hereby appoints the Reinsurer as its attorney-in-fact with respect to the rights, duties and privileges and obligations of the Company in and to the Reinsurance Contracts, with full power and authority to act in the name, place and stead of the Company with respect to such contracts, including without limitation, the power to service such contracts, to adjust, defend, settle and to pay all Claims, to recover salvage and subrogation for any losses incurred and to take such other and further actions as may be necessary or desirable to effect the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, provided, that the Reinsurer covenants to exercise such authority in a professional manner and to use the same level of care as is used in administering the Reinsurer’s other reinsurance business. As part of the foregoing, the Company grants full authority to the Reinsurer to adjust, settle or compromise all Losses hereunder, and all such adjustments, settlements and compromises shall be binding on the Company. The Company agrees to cooperate fully with the Reinsurer in the transfer of such administration, and the Reinsurer agrees to be responsible for such administration. To the extent any Claim is satisfied, in whole or in part, by withdrawals from the Pre-Existing Trust Accounts, such withdrawal shall be deemed to have discharged, to that extent, the reinsurance recoverable under this Agreement corresponding to the satisfaction of such Claim.

(c) The Company agrees that so long as (i) the Reinsurer is solvent, and (ii) the Reinsurer or its designee shall not be in material breach of its obligations to service and administer the Reinsurance Contracts or the Claims under this Agreement, the Company will not take action to prevent or limit the Reinsurer or its designee from servicing or administering the Reinsurance Contracts or the Claims as contemplated by this Agreement. If the Reinsurer (i) becomes insolvent, makes an assignment for the benefit of its creditors, or becomes the subject of any voluntary or involuntary supervision, conservation, rehabilitation, liquidation or other similar proceeding, the Reinsurer’s authority under this Article 4 shall be automatically revoked and the Company shall handle, or retain a third-party administrator to handle, the administration and runoff of the Reinsurance Business and all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by or on behalf of the Company in taking back and administering the runoff of the Reinsurance Business shall constitute loss adjustment expenses fully reinsured under this Agreement. In all other circumstances, if the Reinsurer fails to cure a material breach of its servicing or other obligations hereunder within thirty (30) days following the Company's written notice to Reinsurer of such breach, which notice shall in reasonable detail describe the nature of such breach or, if such breach shall not be reasonably susceptible to cure within such thirty (30) day period such additional reasonable time not exceeding an additional thirty (30) days as shall be necessary to cure such breach, the Company shall have the right to exercise its remedy options set forth in the last sentence of this paragraph. The remedies available to the Company, without prejudice to any other remedies otherwise available, shall include: (1) the Company shall have the option, at its sole discretion, (i) to revoke the Reinsurer’s authority hereunder and handle the administration and runoff of the Reinsurance Business directly or through its designee, or (2) to provide the Reinsurer with a list of three third-party administrators acceptable to the Company, and the Reinsurer shall, within thirty (30) days, contract (at the Reinsurer's expense) with one of such listed third-party administrator to perform all of the Reinsurer's claim-handling duties and all duties under this Article 4, with the terms of such contract subject to the agreement of the Company, which agreement shall not be unreasonably withheld; or (3) should the Reinsurer fail to comply with the foregoing clause (2), the Company shall have the option, at its sole discretion, to revoke all or a portion of the Reinsurer's authority pursuant to this Article 4, and to contract with one of the listed third-party administrators. In all cases, the reasonable expenses incurred by the Company pursuant to this Section 4(c) shall be deemed to constitute loss adjustment expenses fully reinsured under this Agreement.

- 17 -

(d) The Reinsurer shall maintain sufficient resources and adequate staffing levels of personnel with appropriate experience to administer the Reinsurance Business in a professional manner and shall administer the Reinsurance Business in accordance with all Applicable Laws. In addition, the Reinsurer shall substantially retain the existing claims infrastructure and maintain the current claims practices in place as of the Effective Time, provided that the Reinsurer shall be permitted to make reasonable adjustments to the infrastructure and business practices in the ordinary course of business so long as such adjustments do not cause a material diminution in the quality or scope of services provided hereunder.

(e) So long as no obligation not ceded by the Company hereunder or not covered under the Inuring Reinsurance shall be created or increased and the ceding company or trustee party thereto shall have provided any required consent or agreement, the Reinsurer shall be authorized in the name of the Company to (i) modify the terms of any Reinsurance Contract and any related Pre-Existing Trust Agreement so as to terminate the associated Pre-Existing Trust Account, (ii) novate any such Reinsurance Contract with a reinsurer other than the Company or (iii) novate or modify the terms and provisions of such Pre-Existing Trust Agreement, including modifications to permit the substitution of Eligible Trust Assets (as defined in each Pre-Existing Trust Agreement) at least equivalent to assets held in the Pre-Existing Trust Accounts without specific consent of the beneficiaries of such Pre-Existing Trust Accounts.

(f) The Company hereby appoints the Reinsurer or any of its Affiliates, as the Reinsurer shall designate, as the Investment Manager as defined in and under each Pre-Existing Trust Agreement and agrees as of the Effective Time to notify each trustee of the Pre-Existing Trust Accounts of such appointment.

All allocations of reinsurance premiums and reinsurance recoverables under the Company’s catastrophe per occurrence and aggregate excess covers as they relate to the Reinsurance Business and Integon’s rights and obligations with respect thereto shall be resolved in accordance with the allocation guidelines attached hereto as Schedule E.

ARTICLE 8

INSOLVENCY

In the event of the insolvency of the Company, this reinsurance shall be payable directly to the Company or its liquidator, receiver, conservator or statutory successor on the basis of the amount of the claims allowed in the insolvency proceeding without diminution because of the insolvency of the Company or because the liquidator, receiver, conservator or statutory successor of the Company has failed or is unable to pay all or a portion of a claim, except where (a) this Agreement specifically provides another payee of such reinsurance in the event of the Company’s insolvency, provided that this exception shall only apply to the extent that the reinsurance proceeds due such payee are actually paid by the Reinsurer, or (b) the Reinsurer, with the consent of the direct insured or insureds, has assumed such policy obligations of the Company as direct obligations of the Reinsurer to the payees under such policies and in full and complete substitution for the obligations of the Company to such payees. It is agreed, however, that the liquidator, receiver, conservator or statutory successor shall give written notice to the Reinsurer of the pendency of a claim against the Company indicating the Reinsurance Contract reinsured which involves a possible liability on the part of the Reinsurer within reasonable time after such claim is filed in the conservation or liquidation proceeding or in the receivership and that, during the pendency of such claim, the Reinsurer may investigate such claim and interpose, at its own expense, in the proceeding where such claim is to be adjudicated, any defense or defenses that it may deem available to the Company or its liquidator, receiver, conservator or statutory successor. The expenses thus incurred by the Reinsurer shall be chargeable, subject to the Court’s approval, against the Company as part of the expense of the conservation or liquidation to the extent of a pro rata share of the benefit that may accrue to the Company solely as a result of the defense undertaken by the Reinsurer.

ARTICLE 9

In addition, in connection with an alleged breach of the indemnifying party’s representations, warranties and covenants under this Agreement, the indemnified party’s Damages shall be net of all reserves established by the indemnified party as of the Closing Date (but excluding Loss Reserves and unearned premium reserves) in connection with the particular item or contingency in dispute.

(b) The obligation of either party to indemnify the other party under this Article 12 above shall expire, with respect to any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of the such party, on the date on which the survival of such representation, warranty, covenant or agreement shall expire in accordance with Section 12.1 above, except with respect to any written claims for indemnification which the indemnified party has delivered to the indemnifying party prior to such date.

(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Article 12 hereof of notice of any claim or the commencement of any Action, the indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Article 12 hereof, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the claim or the commencement of that Action stating in reasonable detail the nature and basis of such claim and a good faith estimate of the amount thereof, provided that the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have to the indemnified party unless and only to the extent such failure materially and adversely prejudices the ability of the indemnifying party to defend against or mitigate damages arising out of such claim. If any claim shall be brought against an indemnified party, it shall notify the indemnifying party thereof and the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein, and to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party, and to settle and compromise any such claim or Action; provided, however, that the indemnifying party shall not agree or consent to the application of any equitable relief upon the indemnified party without its written consent. After notice from the indemnifying party to the indemnified party of its election to assume the defense of such claim or Action, the indemnifying party shall not be liable for other expenses subsequently incurred by the indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof; provided, however, that if the indemnifying party elects not to assume such defense, the indemnified party may retain counsel satisfactory to it and to defend, compromise or settle such claim on behalf of and for the account and risk of the indemnifying party, and the indemnifying party shall pay all reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel for the indemnified party promptly as statements therefor are received; and, provided, further, that the indemnified party shall not consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or compromise without the written consent of the indemnifying party which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The parties agree to render to each other such assistance as may reasonably be requested in order to insure the proper and adequate defense of any such claim or proceeding. The indemnified party shall also have the right to select its own counsel, at its own expense, to represent the indemnified party and to participate in the defense of such claim, as applicable.

Section 12.4 Remedies Exclusive.

The remedies provided in this Article 12 shall be the exclusive remedies of the parties hereto from and after the Closing in connection with any breach of a representation or warranty, or non-performance, partial or total, of any covenant or agreement contained herein. The provisions of this Article 12 shall apply to claims for indemnification asserted as between the parties hereto as well as to third-party claims.

Reinstatement Premium Allocation

Reinstatement premium for the per occurrence layers should be consistent with the final result of the loss allocation after reindexing for all events that have taken place in the year.

Premium Adjustment

Premium adjustments shall be allocated as per actual written premium following each contract year. For example, the termination of the Lehman Re participation reduced the percentage placements shown above. In the event of a loss, the allocations will be revised to reflect this change.
