(b) The Net Settlement with respect to any Accounting Period for the

reinsurance covered hereunder is equal to the following: (i) the Quota Share of Recoveries actually received by the Ceding Company during such Accounting Period; minus (ii) the Reinsured Liabilities payable by the Reinsurer during such Accounting Period.

(b) With respect to the calendar year-end reserves and liabilities with respect

to the Covered Insurance Policies, the Reinsurer’s appointed actuary shall provide a certification that in his or her opinion, the reserves and related actuarial values concerning the Covered Insurance Policies:

(i)	are computed in accordance with presently accepted actuarial

standards consistently applied and are fairly stated, in accordance with sound actuarial principles;

(ii)	are based on actuarial assumptions which produce reserves at least

as great as those called for in any contract provision as to reserve basis and method, and are in accordance with all other policy or contract provisions;

(iii)

meet the requirements of all Applicable Law of the Reinsurer’s

state of domicile and, to the extent applicable regulations of the Reinsurer’s state of domicile vary materially from the parallel requirements of the Ceding Company’s state of domicile, a good faith estimate of the effects of any such differences and a summary description of the Reinsurer’s methodologies used in developing such estimations; and

(iv)	have been subjected to satisfactory asset adequacy testing in

accordance with applicable regulations.

The Ceding Company may, at its own cost at any time, upon reasonable notice to the Reinsurer following the Effective Time, examine the books and records relating to the Covered Insurance Policies maintained by the Reinsurer in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, and review the Reinsurer’s reserve procedures. If as a result of such examination the Ceding Company believes that the reserves concerning the Covered Insurance Policies are not consistent with the requirements of clauses (i) through (iv) of this Section 3.7(b) in all material respects, the Reinsurer shall, at the Ceding Company’s request and expense, obtain and deliver to the Ceding Company an actuarial opinion as to the adequacy of the reserves for the Covered Insurance Policies, produced by an independent actuary reasonably acceptable to the Ceding Company. In the event that the actuarial opinion so rendered reasonably indicates a material inadequacy in the reserves for the Covered Insurance Policies or in the Reinsurer’s reserve procedures, the Reinsurer shall promptly adjust the amount of the reserves for the Covered Insurance Policies and implement appropriate changes to its reserve procedures so as to avoid inadequacies in future periods.

quarter, the Reinsurer shall provide to the Ceding Company a calculation of the Floating RBC Ratio and, if the Fixed RBC Ratio is less than two hundred fifty percent (250%), the Fixed RBC Ratio of the Reinsurer as of the last day of such calendar year or quarter, as applicable. Each such calculation shall include reasonable supporting detail with respect to such calculation. Any publicly available filing with the applicable regulator of the Reinsurer’s state of domicile by the RBC Reporting Deadline of the calculation of the Floating RBC Ratio and Fixed RBC Ratio shall be deemed providing such calculation to the Ceding Company and shall, accordingly, satisfy the first sentence of this Section 3.7(c).

(d) The Reinsurer shall provide written notice of the occurrence of any Triggering Event or Recapture Event on the earlier of (i) within five (5) Business Days after becoming aware of its occurrence or (ii) concurrently with its reporting of the Floating RBC Ratio to the insurance regulatory authority in the Reinsurer’s state of domicile or its good faith estimate of its Floating RBC Ratio or Fixed RBC Ratio in connection with reporting under clause (a) above which would result in a Triggering Event or Recapture Event. In addition, the Reinsurer shall cooperate fully with the Ceding Company and promptly respond to the Ceding Company’s reasonable inquiries from time to time concerning the determination of whether a Triggering Event or Recapture Event has occurred.

Each Party shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, preserve, until such date as may be required by the applicable Party’s standard document retention policies (or such other later date as may be required by Applicable Law), all books and records related to the Covered Insurance Policies. During such period, upon any reasonable request from the other Party or its representatives, the applicable Party shall (a) provide to the requesting Party and its representatives reasonable access to such books and records during normal business hours; provided that such access shall not unreasonably interfere with the conduct of the business of the Party providing access, and (b) permit the requesting Party and its representatives to make copies of such records, in each case of (a) and (b), at the sole cost of the requesting Party or its representatives. Such books and records may be sought under this Section 3.8 by either Party for any reasonable purpose, including to the extent reasonably required in connection with accounting, litigation, securities law disclosure or other similar purpose. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the expiration of such retention period, any and all such books and records may be destroyed by either Party if the applicable Party sends to the other Party written notice of its intent to destroy such records, specifying in reasonable detail the contents of the records to be destroyed; such records may then be destroyed after the sixtieth (60th) day following such notice unless the other Party notifies the applicable Party that it desires to obtain possession of such records, in which event the applicable Party shall transfer the records to the other Party and the other Party shall pay all reasonable expenses of the applicable Party in connection therewith. Nothing herein shall require either Party to disclose any information to the other Party or its representatives (i) that is subject to the terms of a nondisclosure agreement with a third party, (ii) that may constitute privileged attorney-client communications or attorney work product and the transfer of which, or the provision of access to which, as reasonably determined by the disclosing Party’s counsel, constitutes a waiver of any such privilege or (iii) if the provision of access to such document (or portion thereof) or information, as determined by the disclosing Party’s counsel, would reasonably be expected to conflict with Applicable Law (in each case, it being understood that the disclosing Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to enable such information to be furnished or made available to the requesting Party or its representatives without violating the terms of any such nondisclosure agreement, jeopardizing privilege or protection, incurring liability or contravening Applicable Law or contract, agreement or obligation, including by entering into a back-to-back nondisclosure agreement or entering into a customary joint defense agreement or common interest agreement to the extent that such an agreement would preserve the applicable privilege or protection).

During the term of this Agreement, the Reinsurer shall maintain accounts in the name of the Ceding Company with banking institutions with respect to the Covered Insurance Policies (the “Bank Accounts”). The Reinsurer may open one or more new Bank Accounts or, at the request of the Reinsurer, the Ceding Company shall cooperate with the Reinsurer to identify and transfer to the Reinsurer, as fiduciary of the Ceding Company, control over existing bank accounts of the Ceding Company that were used by the Ceding Company exclusively in the administration of the Covered Insurance Policies prior to the Effective Time.

In the absence of a Triggering Event or Recapture Event, the Ceding Company shall do all things necessary at the Reinsurer’s expense to (x) enable and authorize the Reinsurer to use the Ceding Company’s existing lockboxes with respect to the Covered Insurance Policies and (y) to enable the Reinsurer to open and maintain the Bank Accounts including, without limitation, executing and delivering such depository resolutions and other documents as may be requested from time to time by the banking institutions. The Ceding Company agrees that, in the absence of a Triggering Event or Recapture Event, it shall not make any changes to the authorized signatories on the Bank Accounts nor attempt to withdraw any funds therefrom without the Reinsurer’s prior written consent. Upon the occurrence of any Triggering Event or Recapture Event, the Ceding Company shall be entitled to revoke the Reinsurer’s authority with respect to all such Bank Accounts; provided that the Reinsurer shall not be deemed to be in breach of any of its obligations under this Agreement or the Administrative Services Agreement to the extent caused by such revocation of authority.

The Reinsurer shall promptly notify the Ceding Company of any event or change or condition that would be reasonably likely to result in any loss of, or impairment to, Reserve Credit. Furthermore, upon a Reserve Credit Event, the Ceding Company and the Reinsurer shall cooperate in good faith with the Ceding Company to promptly amend this Agreement or the Trust Agreement, or enter into other agreements or execute additional documents as reasonably needed to comply with the credit for reinsurance laws and regulations and/or the requirements of the applicable Governmental Entity to ensure the Ceding Company obtains Reserve Credit.

enter into one or more facilities and/or reinsurance agreements with respect to the Financed Policies under which one or more of the Reinsurer’s Affiliates or third parties (the “Financing Providers”) may provide collateral support with respect to such Financed Policies whether in the form of a reinsurance agreement, a trust, a letter of credit or other acceptable security or any combination thereof (collectively, (the “Reinsurance Collateral” and such facilities, the “Collateral Facility”).

(b)	The Reinsurer (i) hereby grants in favor of the Ceding Company a first

priority security interest in the Reinsurer’s rights under the Collateral Facility transaction documents solely in connection with any amounts due and otherwise unpaid by the Reinsurer under the Covered Insurance Policies, to the extent permitted by the Collateral Facility transaction documents, and (ii) shall (A) enforce its rights under the Collateral Facility agreements as reasonably directed by the Ceding Company, (B) use its reasonable best efforts to ensure that the Ceding Company is a third party beneficiary under each Collateral Facility with the right to directly enforce the Reinsurer’s rights thereunder if the Reinsurer fails to exercise its rights after reasonable request from the Ceding Company, (C) cause its Affiliates to grant in favor of the Ceding Company a first priority security interest in such Affiliates’ rights under the Collateral Facility transaction documents; (D) draw or withdraw amounts available under the Collateral Facility upon demand of the Ceding Company in connection with any amounts due and otherwise unpaid by the Reinsurer under the Covered Insurance Policies (such rights collectively, the “Enforcement Rights”); and (E) use any amounts withdrawn from the Collateral Facility in respect of the Financed Policies to pay claims or Liabilities under the Covered Insurance Policies and hold any excess amounts withdrawn from the Collateral Facility in respect of Financed Policies in trust for the sole and exclusive use of payment of future claims or Liabilities under the Covered Insurance Policies. The Reinsurer shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Financing Providers to acknowledge the Ceding Company’s Enforcement Rights and the Reinsurer agrees not to amend any provision in the Collateral Facility that will affect or terminate the Ceding Company’s Enforcement Rights without the Ceding Company’s prior written consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

Section 4.3 Security.

(a)	On or prior to the Closing Date, the Reinsurer, as grantor, shall establish

and thereafter shall maintain, at its sole cost and expense, the Trust Account with the Trustee, naming the Ceding Company as sole beneficiary thereof to secure and fund the Reinsurer’s obligations hereunder. The Reinsurer shall maintain the Trust Account in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Trust Agreement. The Trust Account will be initially funded in accordance with Section 2.2(b) of the Master Agreement and Section 3.1(a).

(b)	In accordance with the terms set forth herein and in the Trust Agreement,

and subject to the provisions of Sections 4.7 and 4.9, the Reinsurer shall ensure that the Trust Account holds Eligible Assets in accordance with the terms hereof with a Statutory Book Value at least equal to the Required Balance. All transfers to and withdrawals from the Trust Account shall be in accordance with and subject to the requirements set forth herein and in the Trust Agreement.

(c)	To secure payment of its obligations hereunder, the Reinsurer further

grants to the Ceding Company a security interest in and continuing lien on all of the Reinsurer’s right, title and interest in, to and under the Trust Account and all assets deposited therein in accordance with the Trust Agreement. From and after the Effective Time, the Parties shall reasonably cooperate to do such further acts and things as reasonably required such that the security interest granted hereunder may be maintained as a first priority perfected security interest.

(d)	During the term of this Agreement, the Reinsurer shall not, and shall direct

that the Trustee shall not, grant or cause or permit to be created or granted in favor of any third person any security interest whatsoever in any of the assets in the Trust Account. Other than for the benefit of the Ceding Company, the Reinsurer shall not create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any liens on the assets in the Trust Account (whether owned on the date of this Agreement or hereafter acquired), or on any interest therein or the proceeds thereof.

Section 4.4 Trust Account and Settlements.

(a) The Trustee shall hold assets in the Trust Account pursuant to the terms of

the Trust Agreement. All settlements of account under this Agreement between the Ceding Company and the Reinsurer shall be made in United States dollars in cash or its equivalent or other assets withdrawn by the Ceding Company from the Trust Account.

(b) As of the Effective Time, the Reinsurer and the Ceding Company shall

cause the Trustee to create the following two trust accounts that will constitute the Trust Account:

(i)	The “Funding Account,” which shall be Account No. 436310 and

shall hold Eligible Assets in respect of the Quarterly Funding Amount transferred thereto from the Main Account in accordance with Section 4.4(c); and

(ii)	The “Main Account,” which shall be Account No. 436264 and

shall hold all Eligible Assets otherwise required to be held in the Trust Account pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and the Trust Agreement.

(c) On a quarterly basis, the Reinsurer shall within the first five (5) Business Days of a calendar quarter allocate to the Funding Account cash and cash equivalents such that the balance of the Funding Account is at least equal to the Quarterly Funding Amount. Amounts held in the Funding Account may be withdrawn by the Ceding Company at any time, without prior consent from or notice to the Reinsurer, following the end of an Accounting Period for the payment of any Reinsured Liabilities to the extent not paid by the Reinsurer prior to their due date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Reinsurer agrees that if any Insurance Regulator having jurisdiction over the Ceding Company determines that this process and the related provisions of this Article IV are not consistent with the Parties’ intended treatment under Applicable Law or applicable instructions as set forth on Schedule 4.4(c), the Reinsurer agrees to reasonably cooperate with the Ceding Company in revising such process and provisions and otherwise amending this Agreement to achieve such intended treatment; provided, that no such revision shall have an adverse economic impact on the Reinsurer.

Section 4.5 Eligible Assets. The assets held in the Trust Account shall be valued at their Statutory Book Value as of the date as of which such assets are required to be valued. The assets that may be held in the Trust Account shall consist of cash and/or investments consistent with the requirements for authorized investments and admitted assets in the Ceding Company’s state of domicile and the Reinsurer’s state of domicile; provided, that (x) each such investment that is a security is issued by an institution that is not the Reinsurer, the Ceding Company or an Affiliate of either Party and (y) such investments comply with the Investment Guidelines; provided, further, that, following and during the continuation of a Recapture Event, in addition to complying with the Investment Guidelines, such investments shall also meet all requirements under the Ceding Company state of domicile’s insurance law and regulations with respect to providing Reserve Credit to the Ceding Company (the assets meeting the requirements of this sentence being the “Eligible Assets”). From time to time, subject to Section 4.7, the Reinsurer may direct the Trustee to substitute assets held in the Trust Account, provided that (i) at the time of such substitution, the withdrawn assets are replaced with other Eligible Assets having a Statutory Book Value at least equal to the Statutory Book Value of the assets withdrawn, and (ii) the Market-to-Book Requirement is satisfied; provided that for purposes of clause (ii), during the period when the Hedge Account Control Agreements are in effect, in determining the Market-toBook Ratio, the Fair Market Value of Eligible Assets in the Trust Account shall include the Hedging Assets Value, and subject to Section 4.11(e) the Ceding Company will cooperate with the Reinsurer in good faith on any substitution or disposition of any Eligible Asset risks which are hedged under any Hedging Asset.

Section 4.6 Deposit of Eligible Assets. Subject to the Trust Agreement, prior to depositing Eligible Assets in the Trust Account, the Reinsurer or the Ceding Company, as applicable, shall execute assignments or endorsements in blank, or transfer legal title to the Trustee of all shares, obligations or any other assets requiring assignments, in order that the Ceding Company, or the Trustee upon the direction of the Ceding Company, may when and as permitted by the Trust Agreement negotiate these assets without the consent or signature from the Reinsurer or any other Person.

Section 4.7 Modifications Upon Occurrence of a Recapture Event.

(a) The Parties acknowledge and agree that, upon the occurrence of a Triggering Event or Recapture Event, certain provisions of this Agreement and the Trust Agreement shall cease to be effective, and other provisions shall automatically be effective thereafter, as described herein and in the Trust Agreement.

(b) Provisions that will automatically become modified upon the occurrence

of a Triggering Event but in the absence of a Recapture Event are as follows: (i) the Ceding Company shall be entitled to retain Recoveries as funds withheld and any such funds withheld shall be credited against the Required Balance as set forth in Section 3.2; (ii) the valuation of Eligible Assets in the Trust Account under Section 4.3(b) and all other applicable sections of this Agreement shall be based on both Statutory Book Value and Fair Market Value; (iii) the withdrawal and substitution by the Reinsurer of Eligible Assets in the Trust Account shall be modified to require the prior written consent of the Ceding Company; and (iv) Section 4.9(a)(i) governing the adjustment of the security held in the Trust Account shall be replaced by Section 4.9(a)(ii)

of a Recapture Event (to the extent not already modified pursuant to Section 4.7(b)) are as follows: (i) the Ceding Company shall be entitled to retain Recoveries as funds withheld and any such funds withheld shall be credited against the Required Balance as set forth in Section 3.2; (ii) the valuation of Eligible Assets in the Trust Account under Section 4.3(b) and all other applicable sections of this Agreement shall be based on both Statutory Book Value and Fair Market Value; (iii) the assets constituting Eligible Assets shall be modified as set forth in the

Investment Guidelines and Section 4.5; (iv) the withdrawal and substitution by the Reinsurer of Eligible Assets in the Trust Account shall be modified to require the prior written consent of the Ceding Company; (v) Section 4.8(a) governing the withdrawal, use and application of assets in the Trust Account by the Ceding Company shall be replaced by Section 4.8(b); and (vi) Section 4.9(a)(i) governing the adjustment of the security held in the Trust Account shall be replaced by Section 4.9(a)(iii).

Section 4.8 Withdrawal of Assets from the Trust Account.

(a) In the Absence of a Recapture Event. In the absence of a Recapture Event, the Ceding Company and the Reinsurer agree that the assets maintained in the Trust Account (other than the Funding Account) may only be withdrawn by the Ceding Company (or any successor by operation of law of the Ceding Company including, without limitation, any liquidator, rehabilitator, receiver or conservator of the Ceding Company), without diminution because the Ceding Company or the Reinsurer is insolvent, as defined in Section 7.1(a),, in accordance with the terms of the Trust Agreement, upon delivery by the Ceding Company to the Reinsurer of a written notice thereof, only if such withdrawal is to pay or reimburse the Ceding Company for any amounts not subject to a good faith dispute due from the Reinsurer under this Agreement and not yet recovered from the Reinsurer, which amounts have not yet been paid by the Reinsurer within ten (10) Business Days following receipt by the Reinsurer from the Ceding Company of written notice thereof, which notice shall not be provided until the due date for such amounts under this Agreement has passed. The amount of any such withdrawal in excess of amounts then due to the Ceding Company hereunder shall be deemed maintained in trust for the benefit of the Reinsurer and promptly returned to the Trust Account. For the avoidance of doubt, assets maintained in the Funding Account may be withdrawn by the Ceding Company at any time and from time to time, without prior consent from or notice to the Reinsurer, for the payment of benefits with respect to claims included in the Reinsured Liabilities.

(b) Following a Recapture Event. Following the occurrence of a Recapture Event, the Ceding Company and the Reinsurer agree that the assets maintained in the Trust Account may be withdrawn by the Ceding Company (or any successor by operation of law of the Ceding Company including, without limitation, any liquidator, rehabilitator, receiver or conservator of the Ceding Company), without diminution because of insolvency on the part of the Ceding Company or the Reinsurer, at any time without notice or consent from the Reinsurer but only for one or more of the following purposes:

(i) to reimburse the Ceding Company for the Reinsurer’s share of Premiums returned to the owners of the Covered Insurance Policies reinsured hereunder because of cancellations of the Covered Insurance Policies;

(ii) to reimburse the Ceding Company for Reinsured Liabilities

pursuant to the provisions of the Covered Insurance Policies reinsured hereunder;

(iii) to fund an account with the Ceding Company in an amount at least

equal to the greater of (A) the amount required so that the Ceding Company may receive Reserve Credit and (B) the deduction, for reinsurance ceded, from the Ceding Company liabilities for Covered Insurance Policies ceded hereunder, which account may include, but not be limited to, amounts for policy reserves, claims and losses incurred, including losses incurred but not reported, loss adjustment expenses, and unearned premium reserves; or

(iv) to pay any other amounts the Ceding Company claims are due

hereunder.

(c) The Ceding Company shall return to the Trust Account within five (5) Business Days amounts withdrawn in excess of actual amounts required under Sections 4.8(b)(i), (ii) and (iii) or, in the case of Section 4.8(b)(iv), amounts that are subsequently determined not to be due. Any such excess amount not returned (together with investment income thereon) shall be held by the Ceding Company (or any successor by operation of law of the Ceding Company, including any liquidator, rehabilitator, receiver or conservator of the Ceding Company) in trust for the benefit of the Reinsurer and be maintained in a segregated account, separate and apart from any assets of the Ceding Company for the purpose of funding the payments and reimbursements described in Sections 4.8(b)(i), (ii) and (iv). The Ceding Company may at any time substitute or exchange any assets held in such account and invest or reinvest such asset; provided, that the assets so substituted or exchanged and all reinvestment assets are Eligible Assets and comply with the Investment Guidelines.

(d) The Reinsurer shall not be permitted to withdraw assets maintained in the Trust Account except as permitted under Section 4.9.

Section 4.9 Adjustment of Security and Withdrawals.

(a) No later than thirty (30) days following the end of each calendar quarter (the “Security Reporting Date”), the Reinsurer shall furnish a report to the Ceding Company setting forth (x) the Required Balance as of the end of such calendar quarter calculated by the Reinsurer as Administrator and (y) the Statutory Book Value of Eligible Assets as of the end of such calendar quarter (the “Security Funding Report”). The amount of security held in the Trust Account shall be adjusted as follows:

(i) In the Absence of a Triggering Event and Recapture Event:

(A)

If the aggregate Statutory Book Value of the Eligible Assets held in the Trust Account as of the end of such calendar quarter is less than the Required Balance, calculated based on the most recent Security Funding Report, then the Reinsurer shall, no later than ten (10) Business Days following the Security Reporting Date, transfer additional Eligible Assets to the Trust Account so that the aggregate Statutory Book Value of the Eligible Assets held in the Trust Account is not less than the Required Balance; provided that each such transferred Eligible Asset has a Fair Market Value equal to or greater than its Statutory Book Value.

(B)

If the aggregate Statutory Book Value of the Eligible Assets in the Trust Account as of the end of such calendar quarter exceeds the Required Balance, then the Reinsurer may make a written demand to the Trustee with a copy to the Ceding Company to release to the Reinsurer excess assets in the Trust Account, and the Trustee shall release such assets no earlier than five (5) Business Days following receipt of the withdrawal demand if such release is not objected to by the Ceding Company, provided, that the Ceding Company may not object if (i) the Market-to-Book Requirement is satisfied, and (ii) the aggregate Statutory Book Value of the Eligible Assets in the Trust Account immediately following the withdrawal is at least equal to the Required Balance set forth in the most recent Security Funding Report.

(ii)	During the Occurrence and Continuation of a Triggering Event but

in the Absence of a Recapture Event:

(A)

If either the aggregate Fair Market Value or the aggregate Statutory Book Value of the Eligible Assets held in the Trust Account as of the end of such calendar quarter is less than the Required Balance calculated based on the most recent Security Funding Report, then the Reinsurer shall, no later than ten (10) Business Days following the Security Reporting Date, transfer additional Eligible Assets to the Trust Account so that each of the aggregate Fair Market Value and the aggregate Statutory Book Value of the Eligible Assets held in the Trust Account is not less than the Required Balance.

(B)

If the aggregate Fair Market Value and Statutory Book Value of the Eligible Assets held in the Trust Account as of the end of such calendar quarter exceed the Required Balance, then the Reinsurer shall have the right to withdraw such excess upon the prior written consent of the Ceding Company which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided that (i) the Market-to-Book Requirement is satisfied, and (ii) the aggregate Fair Market Value and Statutory Book Value of the Eligible Assets in the Trust Account immediately following the withdrawal are both at least equal to the Required Balance as set forth in the most recent Security Funding Report.

(iii)

During the Occurrence and Continuation of a Recapture Event:

(A)

If either the aggregate Fair Market Value or the aggregate Statutory Book Value of the Eligible Assets held in the Trust Account as of the end of such calendar quarter is less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Required Balance calculated based on the most recent Security Funding Report, then the Reinsurer shall, no later than the earlier of ten (10) Business Days following the Security Reporting Date, transfer additional Eligible Assets to the Trust Account so that each of the aggregate Fair Market Value and the aggregate Statutory Book Value of the Eligible Assets held in the Trust Account is not less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Required Balance.

(B)

If the aggregate Fair Market Value and Statutory Book Value of the Eligible Assets held in the Trust Account as of the end of such calendar quarter exceed one hundred two percent (102%) of the Required Balance, then the Reinsurer shall have the right to withdraw such excess upon the prior written consent of the Ceding Company which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided that (i) the Market-to-Book Requirement is satisfied, and (ii) the aggregate Fair Market Value and Statutory Book Value of the Eligible Assets in the Trust Account immediately following the withdrawal are both at least equal to one hundred two percent (102%) of the Required Balance as set forth in the most recent Security Funding Report.

(b) In addition to the Reinsurer’s right to withdraw Eligible Assets from the Trust Account set forth in Section 4.9(a), during the period when the Hedge Account Control Agreements are in effect:

(i)

In the absence of a Triggering Event or Recapture Event, the Reinsurer shall have the right, at any time and from time to time upon prior written notice to the Ceding Company and Trustee, to withdraw Eligible Assets from the Trust Account (x) solely for the purpose of posting collateral for variation margin purposes in respect of Hedging Assets held pursuant to the Hedge Account Control Agreements and only to the extent of such required collateral, and (y) provided that the Market-to-Book Requirement is satisfied. Any such notice of withdrawal delivered by the Reinsurer shall constitute a representation and certification by the Reinsurer that such withdrawal is being made solely for the purpose of posting such collateral for variation margin purposes in accordance with this Section 4.9(b)(i).

(ii)

During the occurrence and continuation of a Triggering Event or Recapture Event, at any time and form time to time with the prior written consent of the Ceding Company (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), the Reinsurer shall have the right to withdraw Eligible Assets from the Trust Account (x) solely for the purpose of posting collateral for variation margin purposes in respect of Hedging Assets held pursuant to the Hedge Account Control Agreements and only to the extent of such required collateral, and (y) provided that the Market-to-Book Requirement is satisfied. Any such notice of withdrawal delivered by the Reinsurer shall constitute a representation and certification by the Reinsurer that such withdrawal is being made solely for the purpose of posting such collateral for variation margin purposes in accordance with this Section 4.9(b)(ii).

(c) The report required to be delivered by the Reinsurer as described in Section 4.9(a) shall include a listing of each asset in the Trust Account and the Statutory Book Value and Fair Market Value of each such asset as of the end of the relevant Accounting Period and indicate whether any such asset is an Eligible Asset. In the event that the Ceding Company disagrees with the calculation of the Statutory Book Value or Fair Market Value of any Eligible Asset or whether any asset is an Eligible Asset as set forth in such report, or with any determination by the Reinsurer of statutory impairments of assets maintained in the Trust Account, the Ceding Company shall within ten (10) Business Days after its receipt of such report deliver written notice to the Reinsurer of such disagreement and the Parties shall attempt in good faith to resolve such disagreement. Any resolution agreed to in writing by the Parties shall be final and binding upon the Parties. If the Parties are unable to resolve any disagreement as to the calculation of the Statutory Book Value or Fair Market Value of any Eligible Asset, whether any asset is an Eligible Asset, or as to the determination of statutory impairments, in each case within ten (10) Business Days after the Ceding Company delivers written notice of any such disagreement to the Reinsurer, the Parties shall jointly request the Valuation Expert to determine the Statutory Book Value or Fair Market Value of the disputed Eligible Asset, whether the disputed asset is an Eligible Asset as of the relevant date, or whether the asset is impaired under statutory rules, as applicable. The Valuation Expert shall resolve any such dispute within thirty (30) calendar days; provided, however, that the amount of each item in dispute shall be determined within the range of amounts proposed by the Ceding Company and the Reinsurer; and provided, further, that the Valuation Expert, as applicable, shall not review any items that are not in dispute or any assumptions underlying any calculations provided to it, and shall adhere to the methodologies employed by the Reinsurer or the Ceding Company, as applicable, for performing any such calculations. The Valuation Expert’s determination of the Statutory Book Value or Fair Market Value of the disputed Eligible Asset or whether the disputed asset is an

Eligible Asset, or its determination of statutory impairments of assets maintained in the Trust Account, as applicable, shall be final and binding upon the Parties. Each Party shall pay one-half of the Valuation Expert’s fees, costs and expenses associated with the Valuation Expert’s determination. After a final and binding resolution of any dispute described in this Section 4.9(c) is reached, the Parties agree to make any necessary adjustments under Section 4.9 within five (5) Business Days based on the Required Balance as of the most recent Security Funding Report.

Section 4.10 Termination of Trust Account. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if, in the absence of a Triggering Event or Recapture Event, the Security Funding Report demonstrates that the Required Balance is less than or equal to $5 million, then (a) the Reinsurer and the Ceding Company shall promptly deliver a joint notice to the Trustee to terminate the Trust Account and (b) the Reinsurer shall have no further obligation to maintain any asset in the Trust Account pursuant to this Agreement.

Section 4.11 Hedging Assets.

(a)	The Reinsurer shall acquire and administer derivative instruments to

hedge risks associated with any assets held in the Trust Account, including those macro or overlay hedges intended to better match the duration of certain assets with associated liabilities (collectively, “Hedging Assets”) in accordance with the Reinsurer’s Derivative Use Policy attached hereto as Exhibit F, the Investment Guidelines and consistent with the Reinsurer’s practices applicable to its investment assets maintained outside of the Trust Account. All such Hedging Assets shall be maintained in a commodities account or other accounts established in the name of the Reinsurer and in accordance with one or more account control agreements among the Ceding Company, the Reinsurer, the futures commission merchant, and the collateral posted by counterparties with respect to such Hedging Assets shall be maintained in a deposit account established in the name of the Reinsurer in accordance with one or more deposit account control agreements among the Ceding Company, the Reinsurer and the custodian, as soon as reasonably practicable following the Closing Date in a form acceptable to all parties thereto (collectively, the “Hedge Account Control Agreements”).

(b)	As security for the payment and performance of all indebtedness,

liabilities and obligations of the Reinsurer to the Ceding Company arising hereunder, whether now existing or hereafter arising, absolute or contingent, direct or indirect, due or to become due, the Reinsurer hereby grants to the Ceding Company a security interest in the Hedging Assets and all accounts, assets, collateral, cash or currency, commodities, commodity contracts, documents of title, financial assets, general intangibles, goods, investment property, inventory, property, securities or securities entitlements, and tangible property of the Reinsurer including all proceeds of the foregoing, which may now or at any time in the future be credited to or held by or for the futures commission merchant relevant to the Hedging Assets or due from any exchange or clearing house in respect of the Hedging Assets.

(c)	The Reinsurer represents that the Reinsurer has not entered into, and

covenants that until the termination of this Agreement it will not enter into, any agreements other than the Hedge Account Control Agreements and the Client Agreements (as defined in the applicable Hedge Account Control Agreements) with respect to any Hedging Assets unless otherwise mutually agreed to with the Ceding Company, such agreement by the Ceding Company not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

(d)	In connection with the Reinsurer’s reporting obligations under Section 3.7,

the Chief Financial Officer of the Reinsurer (or his applicable designee) shall, within ten (10) Business Days following each Accounting Period, provide to the Ceding Company a written report of (i) all such Hedging Assets held by the Reinsurer in such commodities account or other accounts as of the last Business Day of such Accounting Period, (ii) the Hedging Assets Value and all margin requirements and collateral in respect of such Hedging Assets for such Accounting Period, and (iii) such other information in respect of the Hedging Assets as reasonably requested by the Ceding Company from time to time.

(e)	During the continuation of a Triggering Event, the Reinsurer (i) shall

administer all Hedging Assets at the direction of the Ceding Company, and (ii) shall not acquire, dispose of, or agree to any alteration or modification of any Hedging Asset without the prior written consent of the Ceding Company. Following the occurrence of a Recapture Event, the Ceding Company shall have the right to deliver an exclusive control notice to the custodian of the Hedging Assets in accordance with the Hedge Account Control Agreements.

Section 7.2 Insolvency of the Ceding Company. In the event of the insolvency, liquidation or rehabilitation of the Ceding Company or the appointment of a liquidator, receiver or statutory successor of the Ceding Company, the reinsurance coverage provided hereunder, expect as provided by Section 7.3, shall be payable by the Reinsurer directly to the Ceding Company or to its liquidator, receiver or statutory successor, on the basis of the liability of the Ceding Company for the Reinsured Liabilities without diminution because of such insolvency, liquidation, rehabilitation or appointment or because such liquidator, receiver or statutory successor has failed to pay any claims or any portion thereof. The liquidator, receiver or statutory successor of the Ceding Company shall give written notice to the Reinsurer of the pendency of each claim against the Ceding Company with respect to such Reinsured Liabilities within a reasonable time after each such claim is filed in the insolvency, liquidation or rehabilitation proceeding. During the pendency of any such claims, the Reinsurer may, at its own expense, investigate such claim and interpose in the proceeding in which such claim is to be adjudicated any defense or defenses that the Reinsurer may reasonably deem available to the Ceding Company or its liquidator, receiver or statutory successor. The expenses incurred in connection therewith by the Reinsurer shall be chargeable, subject to court approval, against the Ceding Company as part of the expense of such insolvency, liquidation or rehabilitation to the extent of any benefit that accrues to the Ceding Company, solely as a result of the defense or defenses undertaken by the Reinsurer.

Section 7.3 Cut-Through.

(a)	In the event the Ceding Company does not pay amounts otherwise payable

under a Covered Insurance Policy as a result of a court of competent jurisdiction or any applicable Insurance Regulator issuing an order finding the Ceding Company to be insolvent or entering an order to the Ceding Company which legally prohibits the Ceding Company from paying amounts otherwise payable under a Covered Insurance Policy because of the Ceding Company’s financial condition, then the Reinsurer may elect to pay on behalf of the Ceding

Company 100% of any Reinsured Liabilities payable by the Ceding Company under the Covered Insurance Policy that has not been previously paid by the Ceding Company, subject always to the other terms, conditions, exclusions and limitations of the Covered Insurance Policy. If the Reinsurer elects to make such payment in accordance with the preceding sentence, the Reinsurer shall make such payment directly to the insured under the Covered Insurance Policy (such party entitled to payment, the “Payee”). The Reinsurer shall be deemed to have all the rights of the Ceding Company and be subrogated to all the rights of the Ceding Company to the extent of such payment. Any such payment by the Reinsurer shall be used to discharge the Ceding Company from its related payment obligation under the subject Covered Insurance Policy and shall be treated as a payment by the Ceding Company for all purposes.

(b)	The Reinsurer shall have no obligation to indemnify the Ceding Company

for amounts paid or payable by the Ceding Company in respect of a Covered Insurance Policy to the extent of any payments made by the Reinsurer to the applicable Payee of such Covered Insurance Policy in accordance with Section 7.3(a), and the Reinsurer shall be discharged of its payment obligations to the Ceding Company, or to its conservator, rehabilitator, receiver, liquidator or statutory successor, under this Agreement to the extent of such payments.

ARTICLE VIII

DURATION; RECAPTURE

Section 8.1 Duration. This Agreement shall continue in force until such time as (i) the Ceding Company’s Liability arising out of or related to all Covered Insurance Policies reinsured hereunder is terminated in accordance with their respective terms, (ii) the Ceding Company has elected to recapture the reinsurance of Covered Insurance Policies in full in accordance with Section 8.3(a) and the Terminal Settlement has been completed in accordance with Section 8.4 or (iii) the Reinsurer has elected to terminate this Agreement in accordance with Section 8.3(b) and the Terminal Settlement has been completed in accordance with Section 8.4.

Section 8.2 Survival. Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Article VIII, the terms and conditions of Articles I, VI, IX and XI shall remain in full force and effect after the termination or recapture of this Agreement.

Section 8.3 Recapture.

(a) Upon the occurrence and continuation of a Recapture Event, the Ceding Company shall have the right (but not the obligation) to recapture all, and not less than all, of the reinsurance ceded under this Agreement, by providing the Reinsurer with written notice of its intent to effect recapture; provided that, for any Recapture Event other than a Reserve Credit Event, the Ceding Company provides such written notice within twelve (12) months after the Ceding Company becomes aware that such Recapture Event has occurred if the Ceding Company has not received written notice pursuant to Section 3.7(c) that such Recapture Event is no longer continuing as of the date the Ceding Company provides notice of recapture. With respect to any Recapture Event triggered by clause (ii) of the definition of Recapture Event, a new Recapture Event shall be deemed to have occurred should the Reinsurer’s ratio of “total adjusted capital” over its “company action level risk-based capital” (each as described in the definition of “Floating RBC Ratio” or “Fixed RBC Ratio”, as applicable) is reduced by 10 points from a prior Recapture Event triggered by clause (ii) of the definition of Recapture Event. Recapture of the Covered Insurance Policies shall be effective on the date specified in such notice (the “Recapture Date”); provided that the Recapture Date shall be at least ten (10) calendar days following the date of such notice following the day on which the Ceding Company has provided the Reinsurer with such notice.

(b) Upon the occurrence and continuation of a Termination Event, the Reinsurer shall have the right (but not the obligation) to terminate this Agreement by providing the Ceding Company with written notice of its intent to terminate. Termination of this Agreement shall be effective on the date specified in such notice (the “Termination Date”). Upon a termination by the Reinsurer, the Ceding Company shall recapture all the reinsurance ceded under this Agreement. Recapture of the Covered Insurance Policies shall be effective on the Termination Date. The Ceding Company covenants and agrees that it shall not intentionally fail to comply with any term or condition of this Agreement for the purpose of causing a Termination Event or encouraging the Reinsurer to terminate this Agreement following a

Termination Event. In the event that the Reinsurer terminates this Agreement due to a Termination Event (except with respect to claims by the Reinsurer based on the alleged fraud or willful or intentional misconduct on the part of the Ceding Company), the Reinsurer’s sole and exclusive remedy shall be such termination and the payment of Terminal Settlement, if any, pursuant to Section 8.4.

to the payment obligations described in Section 8.4, both the Ceding Company and the Reinsurer will be fully and finally released from all rights and obligations under this Agreement in respect of the Covered Insurance Policies, other than any payment obligations due hereunder prior to the Recapture Date or Termination Date but still unpaid on such date, any Liability of the Reinsurer for Reinsurer Extra-Contractual Obligations arising before the Recapture Date or Termination Date, or, if arising after such effective time, to the extent attributable to a direction or request of the Reinsurer or any of its Affiliates, and any obligations of the Reinsurer with respect to the Reinsured Liabilities incurred prior to the Recapture Date or Termination Date. Following the consummation of the recapture or termination, (i) no additional Recoveries or other amounts payable under such Covered Insurance Policies shall be payable to the Reinsurer hereunder, (ii) the Reinsurer shall have no further right to receive any Recoveries, (iii) the Reinsurer shall have no further obligation to pay any Reinsured Liabilities or other amounts hereunder except as provided in this Section 8.3(c) and except for obligations under the provisions that expressly survive termination as provided in Section 8.2. Upon a recapture or termination pursuant to this Section 8.3, the Recoveries shall be automatically re-transferred and re-delivered to the Ceding

Company, effective as of the Recapture Date or Termination Date, as applicable, and all of the Reinsurer’s right, title and interest in the Recoveries (and any Bank Account, lockbox or other account set up for the receipt of the Recoveries after the Effective Time) shall be automatically released, in each case without the need for any action on the part of the Parties. Promptly after a recapture or termination pursuant to this Section 8.3, the Reinsurer shall do all things reasonably necessary to relinquish control over all Bank Accounts.

(d) The Ceding Company’s right to recapture the Reinsured Liabilities is in

addition to any other right or remedy provided under this Agreement, or now or hereafter existing at law, and the failure to exercise any recapture rights shall not be deemed as a waiver or relinquishment by the Ceding Company of any of its other rights or remedies. Notwithstanding the remedies contemplated by this Article VIII or elsewhere in this Agreement or the other Transaction Agreements, the Ceding Company may, in its sole discretion, require direct payment by the Reinsurer of any sum in default under this Agreement or any other Transaction Agreement in lieu of exercising the remedies in this Article VIII, and it shall be no defense to any such claim that the Ceding Company might have had other recourse.

Section 8.4 Recapture Payments. In connection with a recapture or termination pursuant to Section 8.3, the Reinsurer shall prepare a settlement statement within fifteen (15) calendar days after the Recapture Date or Termination Date, as applicable (the “Terminal Settlement Statement”) setting forth the terminal settlement calculated in accordance with Exhibit C for the Terminal Accounting Period (the “Terminal Settlement”). If the amount of the Terminal Settlement for the Terminal Accounting Period is positive, the Ceding Company shall pay such amount to the Reinsurer within five (5) calendar days of its receipt of the Terminal Settlement Statement. If the amount of the Terminal Settlement for the Terminal Accounting

Period is negative, the Reinsurer shall pay to the Ceding Company cash and transfer assets

(including assets held in the Trust Account and Hedging Assets selected by the Ceding Company) with an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the absolute value of such amount to the Ceding Company at the time it delivers the Terminal Settlement Statement to the Ceding Company. In connection with such recapture or termination, if the Reinsurer has failed to pay the Ceding Company any portion of a Terminal Settlement due to the Ceding Company, the Ceding Company may withdraw assets in the Trust Account to satisfy all or any portion of undisputed and unpaid obligations of the Reinsurer hereunder to the extent of such assets, with the Reinsurer remaining liable to the Ceding Company for any excess over the value of the assets so withdrawn. In addition, following the Recapture Date or the Termination Date, as applicable, the Ceding Company shall retain the Separate Account assets and the Trust Account shall be terminated and any amounts in trust pursuant to Section 4.3 shall be released to the Reinsurer after the full satisfaction of the Terminal Settlement pursuant to the Terminal Settlement Statement.

ARTICLE IX

INDEMNIFICATION; DISCLAIMER

Section 9.1 Reinsurer’s Obligation to Indemnify. The Reinsurer hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Ceding Company and its Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, stockholders, employees, representatives, successors and assigns (collectively, the “Ceding Company Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all Indemnifiable Losses incurred by the Ceding Company Indemnified Parties (a) to the extent resulting from or arising out of (i) any breach by the Reinsurer of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements of the Reinsurer contained in this Agreement or the Trust Agreement, or (ii) any Reinsurer ExtraContractual Obligations or (b) as set forth in Section 2.4 or Section 2.5.

Section 9.2 Ceding Company’s Obligation to Indemnify. The Ceding Company hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Reinsurer and its Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, stockholders, employees, representatives, successors and assigns (collectively, the “Reinsurer Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all Indemnifiable Losses incurred by the Reinsurer Indemnified Parties (a) to the extent resulting from or arising out of (i) any breach by the Ceding Company of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements of the Ceding Company contained in this Agreement or (ii) any Excluded Liabilities or (b) as set forth in Section 2.4 or Section 2.5.

Section 9.3 Procedures for Third Party Claims.

(a) If any Indemnitee receives notice of assertion or commencement of any Third Party Claim against such Indemnitee in respect of which an Indemnitor may be obligated to provide indemnification under this Agreement, the Indemnitee shall give such Indemnitor reasonably prompt written notice (but in no event later than thirty (30) days after becoming aware) thereof (a “Claim Notice”) and such Claim Notice shall include a reasonable description of the claim and any documents relating to the claim and an estimate of the Indemnifiable Loss to the extent known and shall reference the specific sections of this Agreement that form the basis of such claim; provided that no delay on the part of the Indemnitee in notifying any Indemnitor shall relieve the Indemnitor from any obligation or otherwise affect the rights of any Indemnitee hereunder unless (and then solely to the extent) the Indemnitor is actually prejudiced by such delay. Thereafter, the Indemnitee shall deliver to the Indemnitor, within five

(5) calendar days after the Indemnitee’s receipt thereof, copies of all notices and documents (including court papers) received by the Indemnitee relating to the Third Party Claim.

(b) The Indemnitor shall be entitled to participate in the defense of any Third Party Claim and, if it so chooses by giving written notice to the Indemnitee within thirty (30) days after its receipt of the Claim Notice with respect to such Third Party Claim, to assume the defense thereof with counsel selected by the Indemnitor and reasonably acceptable to the Indemnitee and at the Indemnitor’s expense. Should the Indemnitor so elect to assume the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnitor shall not as long as it conducts such defense be liable to the Indemnitee for legal expenses incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with the defense thereof subsequent to the Indemnitor notifying the Indemnitee in writing of its election to assume such defense; provided, however, that, if the Indemnitee concludes based on the advice of outside counsel that a conflict in interest between the Indemnitor and the Indemnitee exists with respect to such Third Party Claim or there may be defenses or counterclaims available to the Indemnitee that are inconsistent with those available to the Indemnitor, the Indemnitor shall be liable for the reasonable out-of-pocket legal expenses of one counsel that are incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with the defense thereof. If the Indemnitor assumes such defense in accordance with this Section 9.3(b), the Indemnitee shall have the right to participate in the defense thereof and to employ counsel, at its own expense, separate from the counsel employed by the Indemnitor, it being understood that the Indemnitor shall control such defense. The Indemnitor shall be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel employed by the Indemnitee for any period during which the Indemnitor has not assumed the defense thereof (other than during any period in which the Indemnitee shall have not yet given notice of the Third Party Claim as provided above). If the Indemnitor chooses to defend any Third Party Claim, the parties hereto shall cooperate in the defense thereof. Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon the Indemnitor’s request and at the Indemnitor’s expense) the provision to the Indemnitor of records and information that are relevant to such Third Party Claim, and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. Whether or not the Indemnitor shall have assumed the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnitee shall not admit any liability with respect to, or pay, settle, compromise or discharge, such Third Party Claim without the Indemnitor’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). If the Indemnitor has assumed the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnitor may only pay, settle, compromise or discharge a Third Party Claim with the Indemnitee’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed); provided, that the Indemnitor may pay, settle, compromise or discharge such a Third Party Claim without the written consent of the Indemnitee if such settlement (A) includes a complete and unconditional release of the Indemnitee from all liability in respect of such Third Party Claim, (B) does not subject the Indemnitee to any injunctive relief or other equitable remedy and (C) does not include a statement or admission of fault, culpability or failure to act by or on behalf of the Indemnitee. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 9.3, the Indemnitee (and not the Indemnitor) shall have the exclusive right to assume the defense and control of any Third Party Claim, if (I) the Indemnitee in good faith determines that the nature of the Third Party Claim is such that it would reasonably be expected to involve criminal liability being imposed on the Indemnitee or its Affiliates or (II) such Third Party Claim seeks an injunction or other equitable relief against the Indemnitee that the Indemnitee reasonably determines, after consultation with its outside counsel, cannot be separated from any related claim for money damages; provided that if such Third Party Claim seeks an injunction or equitable relief against the Indemnitee that can be separated from a related claim for money damages, the Indemnitor may only be entitled to assume control of the defense of such Third Party Claim for money damages.

Section 9.4 Procedures for Direct Claims. The Indemnitor will have a period of thirty (30) days within which to respond in writing to any claim by an Indemnitee on account of an Indemnifiable Loss that does not result from a Third Party Claim. If the Indemnitor does not so respond within such 30 day period, the Indemnitor will be deemed to have rejected such claim, in which event the Indemnitee will be entitled to pursue such remedies as may be available to the Indemnitee.

Section 9.5 Efforts; No Duplication.

(a) Each Indemnitee shall use reasonable best efforts to mitigate all Indemnifiable Losses for which indemnification may be sought hereunder, including by using reasonable best efforts to collect the maximum amount recoverable with respect thereto under any insurance or reinsurance coverage or other applicable sources of recovery. Section 7.3(c) of the Master Agreement is hereby incorporated by reference, mutatis mutandis.

(b) To the extent that a Reinsurer Indemnified Party or a Ceding Company Indemnified Party has received payment in respect of an Indemnifiable Loss pursuant to the provisions of any other Transaction Agreement, such Reinsurer Indemnified Party or Ceding Company Indemnified Party shall not be entitled to indemnification for such Indemnifiable Loss under this Agreement to the extent of such payment.

Section 9.6 Waiver of Duty of Utmost Good Faith. In recognition that each Party has consummated the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Transaction Agreements to which it is a party, based on mutually negotiated representations, warranties, covenants, remedies and other terms and conditions as are fully set forth herein and therein, the Ceding Company and the Reinsurer absolutely and irrevocably waive resort to the duty of “utmost good faith” or any similar principle of disclosure in connection with formation or performance of this Agreement.

(a) The Ceding Company and the Reinsurer agree to hold each other’s Confidential Information in strictest confidence and to take all reasonable steps to ensure that Confidential Information is not disclosed in any form by any means by such Party, its Affiliates or by any of its representative or subcontractors to third parties of any kind, other than the representatives performing services for such Party who need access to such Confidential Information in the course and scope of providing such services, except as is authorized by the other Party in advance and in compliance with all Applicable Law. If any Confidential Information needs to be disclosed as required by Applicable Law or court order, the disclosing Party shall (if permitted by Applicable Law) provide prompt notice to the other Party prior to such disclosure so that such other party may (at its expense) seek a protection order or other appropriate remedy which is necessary to protect its interest.

(b) The Reinsurer may use the Ceding Company’s Confidential Information;

provided that such party shall establish and maintain safeguards against the unauthorized access, destruction, loss or alteration of the Ceding Company’s Confidential Information which are no less rigorous than those maintained by the Reinsurer for its own information of a similar nature (but not less than using a reasonable standard of care), and in compliance with the terms of the Privacy and Security Addendum attached hereto as Exhibit D.

(c) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, with respect to any NonPublic Personal Information received by the Reinsurer, the Reinsurer will (i) comply with Applicable Law and the reasonable terms of the Ceding Company privacy notice; (ii) retain, use, process, and disclose all Non-Public Personal Information accessed, obtained, developed, or produced by Reinsurer only to monitor the Ceding Company’s compliance with the terms of this Agreement, perform its obligations under this Agreement and as specifically permitted by this Agreement, or as otherwise instructed in writing from time-to-time by Ceding Company, and not for any other purpose; (iii) refrain from selling such Non-Public Personal Information or using such Non-Public Personal Information for any other purpose, including for its own commercial purpose or benefit; (iv) ensuring that all Non-Public Personal Information created by the Reinsurer on behalf of the Ceding Company is not subject to unauthorized alteration or deletion, accidental or unlawful destruction, accidental loss, or alteration while such Non-Public Personal Information under the control of Reinsurer; (v) subject to Applicable Law and the terms of the Reinsurer’s record retention policies, comply with the provisions of this Agreement and the reasonable instructions of the Ceding Company to return, store or destroy the Non-Public Personal Information; (vi) comply with all applicable Laws with respect to processing of NonPublic Personal Information take any additional steps reasonably requested by Ceding Company to comply with any notification or other obligations required under such Applicable Laws; (vii) limit access to and possession of Non-Public Personal Information only to those Reinsurer personnel whose responsibilities under this Agreement reasonably require such access or possession; (viii) notify the Ceding Company promptly upon becoming aware of a breach of any of the forgoing clauses in this Section; (ix) notify the Ceding Company promptly (and in any event no later than ten (10) days after receipt) of any communication received from a data subject relating to the security of such data subject’s Non-Public Personal Information or rights to access, modify or correct his or her Non-Public Personal Information that is outside of the usual course of services, and where the data subject’s Non-Public Personal Information relates to this Agreement, comply with all reasonable instructions of Ceding Company before responding to such communications; and (x) upon Ceding Company’s written request, consult with Ceding Company regarding training of Reinsurer personnel with respect to Non-Public Personal Information.

(d) If either Party receives a third party demand pursuant to subpoena,

summons, or court or governmental order or request, to disclose Confidential Information provided by the other Party, the receiving Party shall, if legally permitted, provide the disclosing Party with prompt written notice of any subpoena, summons, or court or governmental order or request, at least ten (10) days prior to such release or disclosure. Unless the disclosing Party has given its prior permission to release or disclose the Confidential Information, the receiving Party shall not comply with the subpoena prior to the actual date required by the subpoena. If a protective order or appropriate remedy is not obtained, the receiving Party may disclose only that portion of the Confidential Information that it is legally obligated to disclose and shall use reasonable efforts to cause confidential treatment to be accorded to such Confidential Information. However, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, this Section shall not be construed as requiring the receiving Party not to comply with the subpoena, summons, or court or governmental order.

(e) The Reinsurer shall establish and maintain (i) administrative, technical,

and physical safeguards against the destruction, loss, or alteration of Confidential and NonPublic Personal Information, and (ii) appropriate security measures to protect Confidential and Non-Public Personal Information, which measures meet or exceed the requirements of all Applicable Laws relating to personal information security. For purposes of this Agreement,

“Information Security Incident” means any breach of security or cyber security incident impacting the Reinsurer that (i) results in the loss or unauthorized access, use or disclosure of Confidential or Non-Public Personal Information, or (ii) prevents the Reinsurer from complying with all of the privacy and security requirements set forth in this Agreement. In the event of any Information Security Incident, the Reinsurer will, at its sole expense, comply with the requirements set forth on Exhibit E.

(f) Upon the Ceding Company’s reasonable request the Reinsurer will

complete the Ceding Company’s Vendor Risk Assessment (“VRA”) process, which includes completing a detailed information security questionnaire and providing relevant Service Organization Control (“SOC”) audit reports, (SOC-1 Type 2 for datacenters or SOC-2 Type 2 for other facilities), when available. The Reinsurer will not knowingly provide any false, misleading or incomplete information in connection with the VRA process, and the Reinsurer will notify the Ceding Company immediately in writing if any such information is no longer true and correct in all material respects, which notice will specify in reasonable detail the reason(s) for the same. The Reinsurer will notify the Ceding Company prior to making any material change with respect to the Reinsurer’s administrative, technical and physical safeguards to protect Confidential Information that could adversely affect the controls or standards of protection previously specified by the Ceding Company through the VRA process.

(g) As needed to comply with Applicable Laws concerning the processing of Non-Public Personal Information or personal information security, or to the extent required by any changes in such Applicable Laws or the enactment of new Applicable Laws, the Parties agree to work cooperatively and in good faith to amend this Agreement in a mutually agreeable and timely manner, or to enter into further mutually agreeable agreements to the extent required by Applicable Law to comply with any such Applicable Laws applicable to the Parties.

(h) The Parties agree that the breach, or threatened breach, of any of the

confidentiality provisions of this Agreement may cause irreparable harm without adequate remedy at law. Upon any such breach or threatened breach, the disclosing Party will be entitled to injunctive relief to prevent the receiving Party from commencing or continuing any action constituting such breach, without having to post a bond or other security and without having to prove the inadequacy of other available remedies. Nothing in this Section will limit any other remedy available to either Party.

Section 11.7 No Third Party Beneficiaries. Other than the rights granted to the Reinsurer Indemnified Parties and the Ceding Company Indemnified Parties under Article IX, this Agreement is not intended to confer upon any Person other than the parties hereto and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors, legal representatives and permitted assigns any rights or remedies.

Each party may deliver its signed counterpart of this Agreement to the other parties by means of electronic mail or any other electronic medium utilizing image scan technology, and such delivery will have the same legal effect as hand delivery of an originally executed counterpart.

Section 11.10 Severability. Whenever possible, each provision or portion of any provision of this Agreement will be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under Applicable Law, but if any provision or portion of any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any Applicable Law in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability will not affect any other provision or portion of any provision in such jurisdiction, and this Agreement will be reformed, construed and enforced in such jurisdiction as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision or portion of any provision had never been contained herein.

Section 11.11 Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations under this Agreement shall be assigned, in whole or in part (including by division, insurance business transfer or by operation of law), by either party without the prior written consent of the other party, and any such assignment that is not consented to shall be null and void. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the parties and their respective successors and assigns.

Section 11.12 Waivers and Amendments. This Agreement may be amended or a provision hereof waived only by a written instrument signed by each of the parties hereto in the case of an amendment, or in the case of a waiver, by the party hereto entitled to make such a waiver. No delay on the part of any party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any waiver on the part of any party of any right, power or privilege, nor any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or privilege, preclude any further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other such right, power or privilege.

Section 1.1(C)

Dividend Obligations

RLI-NWNL Blocks (other than Regulatory Closed Block or “PFA” block)

For the non-PFA block of NWNL, the earned rate assumption is set equal to the earned rate assumption for the PFA business. The PFA dividend scale includes an earned rate assumption (currently 5%) and a surplus distribution assumption (currently 1%) which totals 6%. The PFA and non-PFA blocks share the same earned rate assumption field (currently set to 5%).

RLI-USL Block

Each year a dividend review will be performed. During this review, the earned rate assumption underlying the dividend scale is compared to the general account portfolio earned rate and the current mortality assumption is compared to mortality experience. No adjustments are made for changes in policy administrative expenses. Current dividends average roughly $30 per policy. (The near term annual impact of the difference between the assumptions underlying dividend scale and actual experience may be approximated if original assumptions are not available consistent with past practices of the Ceding Company.) The mechanics of reflecting recent actual changes has resulted in the application of a single multiplier to the previous dividend scale.

RLI-SCL Block

The Ceding Company uses the dividend scales that have been used historically dating to the 1980s.

VIAC Block

Dividends will be determined consistent with the applicable Underlying Agreement and the Ceding Company’s existing practices and procedures.

Schedule 1.1(D)

Economic Reserves

As of the Effective Time, the economic reserves factored into the calculation of the Required

Balance shall be the amount of economic reserves factored into the calculation of the RLI Required Initial Premium (as defined in the Master Agreement and as determined in accordance with the Accounting Principles).

Thereafter, (a) Economic Reserves shall be determined consistent with financing agreements that support the Reinsurer or its Affiliates in place at Closing, either based on target funds withheld or other economic reserve determinations; (b) if new financing agreements that support the Reinsurer or its Affiliates are put in place, then the methodology for calculating Economic Reserves will be consistent with the new agreements (to the extent such new agreements contain a calculation of economic reserves), subject to the Ceding Company’s reasonable consent, and any related disputes shall be resolved pursuant to Section 11.5 of the Agreement; and (c) economic reserves, if any, established in any such new agreements shall provide the Ceding Company with comparable security (with respect to form and level) as the Ceding Company receives on the date of Closing.

As of the Closing Date, the Fair Market Value of any asset shall be the end-of-day price on the day prior to such date of determination determined in accordance with the following pricing matrix, whereby Security Type is determined by the Ceding Company’s “ASSET_CLASS_CATEGORY” classification.

In the event the Target Effective Duration is changed by greater than or equal to 0.5 years and, as a result of such change, the effective duration of the Trust Portfolio exceeds the Permissible Duration Range, the Grantor shall have ninety (90) calendar days following the date of such change to bring the effective duration of the Trust Portfolio within the Permissible Duration Range.

Derivatives will not be held in the Trust Account, but derivatives are permitted to be used for asset-related transaction or hedging purposes and include, but are not limited to, financial futures and options (including options on futures), derivative instruments, transactions, agreements or arrangements, including but not limited to, interest rate and currency swaps and forwards, total return swaps, and credit default swaps and in all cases including only cleared swaps and futures.

VI. Leverage

Leverage is generally prohibited in the Trust Portfolio except within the Mortgage Derivative Strategy and where specifically agreed to in writing between the Grantor and Beneficiary.

VII. Foreign Currency

Investments shall be predominantly made in U.S. dollar-denominated securities. In the event of an investment in a non-U.S. dollar denominated security, the Grantor will seek to hedge away the currency risk as completely as possible (e.g., through derivatives), provided that it is administratively feasible to do so and that any unhedged exposure in aggregate does not exceed limits in these Investment Guidelines

The Grantor or its Investment Manager(s) should not introduce unhedged foreign currency risk into the Trust Portfolio unless explicitly permitted by these Investment Guidelines or expressly directed or consented to by the Beneficiary. New hedged foreign currency risk is only permitted in the Private Placement asset class.

VIII. Monitoring and Compliance

All Investment Limits apply at all times. Compliance with these Investment Guidelines will be measured by the Grantor as of each calendar month end. Within thirty (30) days following the end of each calendar quarter, the Grantor will prepare and deliver to the Beneficiary a written report, in reasonable detail, with respect to the compliance or non-compliance, including reporting of all Passive Exceptions, with these Investment Guidelines as of each calendar monthend within such quarterly period; provided that for a period that is twelve (12) months following the Effective Time, the Grantor shall report with respect to such compliance or non-compliance as of the end of each calendar quarter. Subject to the terms of these Investment Guidelines, compliance shall be measured on the Trust Portfolio; however, the Grantor shall provide reporting at both Trust Account and Trust Portfolio levels. In the event of non-compliance with the Investment Guidelines, including any Investment Limit, the Grantor shall notify the Beneficiary and cure such non-compliance within thirty (30) days after such notification or within such other time period as agreed upon by the Beneficiary and the Grantor.

To the extent that a rating downgrade or other external action causes non-compliance with the Investment Guidelines (“Passive Exception”), the Grantor shall promptly notify the Beneficiary. Upon the occurrence of a Passive Exception, the Grantor shall consult with the Beneficiary to (i) develop a course of corrective actions to be taken by the Grantor to bring the Trust Portfolio into compliance with the Investment Guidelines, (ii) receive a written waiver from the Beneficiary (in the Beneficiary’s reasonable good faith discretion) excusing such non-compliance or (iii) otherwise take such corrective actions to bring the Trust Portfolio into compliance with Investment Guidelines within sixty (60) days or another agreed upon reasonable time-frame. During the continuance of a Passive Exception, any purchase, transfer or sale of Eligible Assets must not cause greater non-compliance with the Investment Guidelines. Further, a Passive Exception shall not be deemed a breach of these Investment Guidelines; however, any purchase, transfer or sale of Eligible Assets must comply with these Investment Guidelines taking into account any such Passive Exception position existing within the Trust Portfolio. The requirements of clauses (i)-(iii) above of this paragraph shall not apply to a Passive Exception with respect to the Investment Limits set forth in Section III(A) so long as the Trust Portfolio is in compliance with the Overall Credit Quality Limit and an RBC Ratio Threshold Breach has not occurred and is continuing as of such date. At any time when either the Trust Portfolio is not in compliance with the Overall Credit Quality Limit or during an RBC Ratio Threshold Breach, the Grantor shall comply with the requirements of clauses (i)-(iii) above of this paragraph with respect to any Passive Exception existing within the Trust Portfolio and these Investment Guidelines.

IX. Other

The aggregate amount of Total Non-Public Trust Assets and Fund Investments in the Trust Portfolio that are not freely transferrable as described in Section 1(i) of the Trust Agreement will not exceed 10% of the Trust Portfolio.

Except with respect to certain Participation Assets, as disclosed to the Beneficiary, deposited by the Grantor in connection with the establishment of the Trust Account, Commercial Mortgage Loans that are Participation Assets must (i) be pari passu with other related participation assets, and (ii) not have any transfer restriction or consent right by any other participant in connection with the transfer of the Participation Asset.

WHEREAS, the Trustee is a Qualified U.S. Financial Institution and is not a parent, a subsidiary or an Affiliate of the Grantor or the Beneficiary;

WHEREAS, the Trustee has agreed to act as Trustee hereunder and, in accordance with the terms hereof, to hold Assets (as hereinafter defined) in trust in the Trust Accounts on the terms herein set forth; and

WHEREAS, this Agreement is made for the benefit of the Beneficiary and for the purpose of setting forth the duties and powers of the Trustee with respect to the Trust Accounts; NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual and several promises and undertakings herein contained, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties agree as follows:

Section 1. Establishment of Trust Accounts; Deposit of Assets to the Trust Accounts

(a) Concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Trustee shall establish one or more Trust Accounts in the Grantor’s name, and shall administer the Trust Accounts as Trustee, in each case for the benefit of the Beneficiary as the sole beneficiary in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The Trustee acknowledges that the instruments and other documents that are delivered to the Trustee in accordance with the terms hereof are held for the benefit of the Beneficiary. Assets credited to the Trust Accounts shall be subject to withdrawal by the Beneficiary and the Grantor only as set forth herein. The Trustee and its lawfully appointed successors are authorized and shall have power to receive such Eligible Assets as the Grantor (or the Beneficiary on behalf of the Grantor) transfers to or vests in the Trustee or places under the Trustee’s possession and control, and to hold, invest, reinvest, manage and dispose of the same for the uses and purposes and in the manner and according to the provisions hereinafter set forth. All such Eligible Assets at all times shall be maintained in the Trust Accounts, separate and distinct from all other assets of the Trustee.

(b) On the date hereof, the Grantor or the Beneficiary on behalf of the Grantor

shall transfer to the Trustee, for deposit to the Trust Accounts, the Eligible Assets listed on Exhibit A hereto in accordance with Section 3.1 of the Reinsurance Agreement, and after the date hereof, the Grantor shall transfer to the Trustee, for deposit to the Trust Accounts, Eligible Assets as it may from time to time be required to deposit by this Agreement or the Reinsurance Agreement (all such Eligible Assets and proceeds thereof actually received in or deposited, transferred or credited to the Trust Accounts being collectively “Assets”). The Trustee shall hold the Assets in trust in the Trust Accounts on the terms set forth herein and reflect them in the Monthly Statement in accordance with Section 11 hereof.

assignments or endorsements in blank, or documents necessary to either transfer legal title to the Trustee of all shares, obligations, or any other assets requiring assignment or otherwise render such assets in proper negotiable form, as applicable, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the immediately preceding sentence, , the Grantor shall deliver and keep current all such agreements, assignments, endorsements, instruments, documents, relevant bond or stock powers, corporate resolutions or other certificates or instruments of transfer as may be required by the applicable issuer and re-register securities in the name of the Trustee or execute assignments or endorsements in blank of all securities or other property requiring such assignment or endorsement in order that the Beneficiary or the Trustee, upon the direction of the Beneficiary, may whenever necessary negotiate any such

Assets without the consent or signature from the Grantor or (subject to Section 1(i)) any other Person; provided that with respect to the NFT Assets, the Grantor is not required to deliver any instrument for the purpose of re-registering such assets in the name of the Trustee. The Trustee shall not accept any assets (other than cash) for deposit into the Trust Accounts unless the Trustee determines that the Trustee, in its capacity as trustee hereunder, is or will be the registered owner of and holder of legal title to such assets or that such assets are in such form that the Trustee may, if applicable to such asset class, negotiate any such assets, without consent or signature from the Grantor or (subject to Section 1(i)) any other Person. Any assets received by the Trustee for deposit into the Trust Accounts that, if applicable to such asset class, are not in such proper negotiable form as set forth herein relevant to such assets or for which title has not been transferred to the Trustee shall not be accepted by the Trustee and shall be returned to the Grantor. The Grantor shall be responsible for all out-of-pocket costs of transfers of title between the Grantor and the Trustee. The Grantor, prior to depositing assets in the Trust Accounts, shall execute or cause to be executed assignments, endorsements in blank, or other documents necessary to transfer legal title to the Trustee of all certificates, shares, obligations or any other assets requiring assignment (it being understood that the Grantor shall not be responsible for such documentation, or any information in such documentation, required to be provided by the Beneficiary in connection with any such assets to be deposited by the Beneficiary on the date hereof, and the Grantor shall be excused from its obligation to provide any such information or documentation to the limited extent that any such information or documentation is not timely provided by the Beneficiary) in order that the Trustee, upon the direction of the Beneficiary, may whenever necessary transfer and assign to the Beneficiary any such asset without the consent or signature of the Grantor or any other Person, provided; however, in the event that any assets deposited in the Trust Accounts are NFT Assets, the Grantor shall execute or cause to be executed assignments, endorsements in blank, or other documents necessary to render such assets in proper negotiable form so that the Beneficiary, upon any withdrawal of such NFT Asset by the Beneficiary from the Trust Accounts in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Reinsurance Agreement, will either have legal title to such NFT Assets or the signed documentation necessary from the Grantor to transfer legal title to the Beneficiary without further signature of the Grantor (notwithstanding that consents or signatures from third parties may or may not be necessary to complete such legal transfer of title). In the event that any NFT Asset is not at the time of deposit with the Trustee a certificated security under Article 8 of the UCC or any other State (as defined in the UCC) and later becomes certificated, the Grantor shall promptly deposit with the Trustee all certificates issued by the issuer of the NFT Assets that represent such NFT Assets.

(d) The Grantor, prior to depositing with the Trustee any NFT Asset that is

not to be registered in the name of the Trustee or its nominee, shall assign, or otherwise direct the issuer of such NFT Asset to transfer, to the Trust Accounts any and all amounts otherwise payable to the Grantor under, and subject to all terms and conditions of, such NFT Asset and provide to the Trustee sufficient evidence as it may reasonably require of the acknowledgement and consent of such issuer to such direction. Neither (i) the Trustee nor (ii) other than arising upon and following any withdrawal of such NFT Asset by the Beneficiary from the Trust Accounts, the Beneficiary, shall assume any obligations or liability under any such NFT Asset.

(e) The Grantor and the Beneficiary, as the case may be, either prior to or

contemporaneously with the deposit of any Assets into a Trust Account, shall identify in writing the particular Trust Account into which the Assets are to be deposited.

(f) The Grantor hereby represents, warrants and covenants that (i) except as

agreed to by the Beneficiary pursuant to Section 1(i), any Eligible Assets, other than NFT Assets, transferred by the Grantor to the Trustee for deposit to the Trust Accounts will be in such form that the Beneficiary whenever necessary may, and the Trustee upon direction by the Beneficiary may, negotiate or transfer any such assets without consent or signature from the Grantor or any other Person; (ii) any NFT Assets transferred by the Grantor to the Trustee for deposit to the Trust Accounts will be in such form (it being understood that the Grantor shall not be responsible for such documentation, or any information in such documentation, required to be provided by the Beneficiary in connection with any such assets to be deposited by the Beneficiary on the date hereof, and the Grantor shall be excused from its obligation to provide any such information or documentation to the limited extent that any such information or documentation is not timely provided by the Beneficiary) that the Trustee, upon direction by the Beneficiary, may transfer and assign to the Beneficiary any such assets without consent or signature from the Grantor or any Person in accordance with the terms of this Agreement; and (iii) all assets transferred by the Grantor to the Trustee for deposit to the Trust Accounts will consist only of Eligible Assets at the time of such transfer.

(g) The Trustee hereby confirms and agrees that:

(i)

The Trustee shall not change the account title or account number of the Trust Account without the prior written consent of the Grantor and the Beneficiary (except to the extent of internal system changes, subject to at least thirty (30) days prior written notice of the same being provided to the Grantor and the Beneficiary);

(ii)

all securities or other property that take the form of an instrument or certificated security underlying any Assets credited to the Trust Accounts, other than NFT Assets, shall be registered in the name of the Trustee or its nominee or endorsed to the Trustee or in blank (either on the related instrument, on the certificated security or on a separate allonge or transfer power), with any powers and resolutions to the Trustee as necessary for the Trustee to freely negotiate such securities and other property, and in no case will any Asset credited to the Trust Accounts be registered in the name of the Grantor, payable to the order of the Grantor or specially endorsed to the Grantor except to the extent the foregoing have been specially endorsed to the Trustee or in blank as set forth above or with respect to NFT Assets in accordance with Section 1(c) and Section 1(d); and

(iii)

the Trustee is a Qualified U.S. Financial Institution.

(h)	The Grantor hereby represents and warrants as of the date hereof, and on

the date of any subsequent deposit or transfer of any Assets into the Trust Accounts, only with respect to the Assets deposited by the Grantor on such date, that:

(i)

except for NFT Assets in accordance with Section 1(c) and Section 1(d), no authorization, consent of or notice to any other Person that has not been obtained is required in connection with the assignment and transfer by Grantor of any such Assets to the Trustee or, except as agreed by the Beneficiary pursuant to Section 1(i), the subsequent transfer thereof by the Trustee pursuant to the terms hereof;

(ii)

other than any assets deposited by the Beneficiary on behalf of the Grantor, as to which the Grantor makes no representations or warranties, the Grantor is the record and beneficial owner of, and has good title to, such Assets, in each case free and clear of any security interest in, liens or options in favor of, or adverse claims of, any other Person, other than the security interest in the Trust Accounts and Assets therein in favor of the Beneficiary;

(iii)

the exact name of the Grantor is Security Life of Denver Insurance Company; and

(iv)	the Grantor is organized exclusively under the laws of the State of Colorado.

(i) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Beneficiary hereby provides its consent and acknowledges and agrees that certain NFT Assets (to the extent within the quantitative limitation set forth in the Investment Guidelines) are only negotiable insofar as they may be transferred or assigned from or by the Grantor to the Trustee and from or by the Trustee to the Beneficiary, but may in all cases remain subject to consent or signature by another Person (excluding the Grantor) according to the respective terms of such NFT Assets for any transfer or assignment from the Beneficiary to any other Person. Upon withdrawal of any such NFT Assets from the Trust Accounts by the Beneficiary, the Grantor shall cooperate with the Beneficiary to transfer title to such NFT Assets, as applicable, and to take other actions necessary or reasonably desirable in connection with the sale or disposition of such NFT Assets.

Section 1A. Security Interest.

(a) It is the intent of the Grantor and the Beneficiary that to the extent that the

trust purported to be created under this Agreement is not valid or the transfer of any securities or other financial assets by the Grantor to the Trust Accounts is not effective to transfer the assets to the Trustee but is characterized as a pledge rather than a lawful conveyance to the Trust Accounts, or at any time the Grantor is not permitted to record any Asset held in the Trust Accounts as an admitted asset pursuant to applicable law, then, without any intent to deny, undermine or vitiate the creation of an effective trust, the parties understand and agree that this Agreement shall be deemed to be a security agreement for purposes of the UCC.

(b) The Grantor and Beneficiary acknowledge and agree that the Assets held

by the Trustee in the Trust Accounts hereunder have been deposited in said Trust Accounts for the sole benefit of the Beneficiary and pledged by the Grantor to the Beneficiary as security for the Grantor’s obligations to the Beneficiary under or in connection with the Reinsurance Agreement (the “Secured Obligations”). In furtherance of the foregoing, to secure the Secured Obligations, the Grantor hereby pledges, assigns to, and grants the Beneficiary a continuing first priority security interest in, and a first priority lien upon, the Trust Accounts, all Assets in the Trust Accounts from time to time, all security entitlements (as such term is defined in the UCC) in respect thereof and all Proceeds of the foregoing. The Trustee acknowledges that it holds possession of all instruments, certificated securities and other documents delivered to it under this Agreement for the benefit of the Beneficiary.

(c) The Grantor and the Beneficiary hereby appoint the Trustee to act as a “securities intermediary” (as such term is defined in the UCC), and the Trustee, in its capacity as securities intermediary, hereby confirms and agrees that:

(i)

the Trust Accounts have been established in the name of the Trustee and the Trust Accounts shall be deemed to consist of (A) a “securities account” (within the meaning of Section 8-501(a) of the UCC) for purposes of the UCC with respect to securities and other financial assets credited thereto from time to time and (B) a “deposit account” (within the meaning of Section 9-102 of the UCC) for purposes of the UCC with respect to cash deposited in or credited thereto from time to time, and there is, and there shall be, no “entitlement holder” or “customer” (each as defined in the UCC), as applicable, for the Trust Accounts other than one or more of the Beneficiary, the Grantor and the Trustee;

(ii)	it shall not change the entitlement holder of any Trust Account without prior written consent of the Beneficiary and it shall not change the account name or number of any Trust Account without at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to the Beneficiary;

(iii)

each item of property credited to a Trust Account (other than cash) from time to time shall be treated as a “financial asset” (as defined in the UCC);

(iv)	it is acting as a securities intermediary with respect to all securities and security entitlements deposited in or credited to the Trust Accounts from time to time and a “bank” (as defined in the UCC) with respect to any cash held in the Trust Accounts from time to time;

(v)

it waives any security interest, lien or right to make deductions or setoffs that it may now have or hereafter acquire in or with respect to the Trust Accounts, any financial asset credited thereto from time to time or any security entitlement in respect thereof, and neither the financial assets credited to the Trust Accounts from time to time nor the security entitlements in respect thereof will be subject to deduction, set-off, banker’s lien, or any other right in favor of any person other than the Beneficiary; and

(vi)	the State of New York shall be deemed to be the securities intermediary’s jurisdiction for purposes of the UCC in connection with the Trust Accounts.

(d) The Grantor irrevocably agrees that the Trustee may, and the Trustee

agrees that it shall, comply with (i) all entitlement orders (as defined in the UCC) originated by the Beneficiary relating to the Trust Accounts (and all security entitlements carried in the Trust Accounts from time to time) and (ii) all instructions originated by the Beneficiary directing disposition of funds in the Trust Accounts from time to time without further consent by the Grantor or any other person so long as this Agreement is in effect. The Beneficiary covenants to the Grantor that it will not issue entitlement orders or other instructions to the Trustee directing that securities or funds in the Trust Accounts be delivered to or for the account of the Beneficiary except in compliance with the terms of this Agreement. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the preceding sentence is solely an agreement between the Beneficiary and the Grantor, shall not be construed to limit the obligations of the Trustee to comply with any such entitlement orders or other instructions delivered by the Beneficiary hereunder and imposes no duty or obligation on the Trustee to investigate or inquire of any party whether any such entitlement order or instructions are issued in accordance with the terms of the Reinsurance Agreement or this Agreement.

(e) Without the prior written consent of the Beneficiary and Grantor, the Trustee will not, except as provided in this Agreement, enter into any agreement under which the Trustee agrees to comply with entitlement orders or instructions originated by any person other than the Beneficiary with respect to any property credited to the Trust Accounts from time to time. The Trustee agrees to promptly notify the Beneficiary and Grantor if any person asserts or seeks to assert a lien, encumbrance or adverse claim against any portion or all of the property credited to the Trust Accounts at any time.

(f) Grantor hereby authorizes the Beneficiary to file any and all UCC

financing statements (and continuation statements) with respect to the Trust Accounts, all Assets in the Trust Accounts from time to time and all “security entitlements” (as such term is defined in the UCC) in respect thereof, and such financing statements may describe the foregoing in any manner determined by the Beneficiary.

(g) The parties hereto agree that if the Trustee’s obligations under this Section 1A in any way conflict with the other provisions of this Agreement, the other provisions of this Agreement shall control; provided, however, that, in the event that the Trustee’s obligations under Sections 1A(b) and 1A(d) hereof conflict with other provisions of this Agreement, the provisions of Sections 1A(b) and 1A(d) hereof shall control. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Trustee shall have no liability for taking any action required pursuant to, or refraining from taking any action that conflicts with, this Section 1A to the extent that the taking of, or refraining from taking, such action would conflict with an obligation of the Trustee under the other terms of this Agreement.

(h) Except as expressly permitted in this Agreement, the Grantor shall not,

unless (i) it shall have given prior written notice to such effect to the Trustee and the Beneficiary and (ii) it shall have taken all action reasonably requested by the Beneficiary to protect and perfect the liens and security interests intended to be created hereunder with respect to the Trust Accounts and the Assets, (A) change its name, identity or structure or (B) reorganize or reincorporate under the laws of another jurisdiction.

(i) In connection with the withdrawal by the Beneficiary of any Asset

pursuant to a Beneficiary Withdrawal Notice in accordance with Section 2(a), the Beneficiary shall have all of the following rights:

(i)

The Beneficiary may exercise, in addition to all other rights and remedies granted in this Agreement and in any other instrument or agreement securing, evidencing or relating to the Secured Obligations, all rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC (whether or not said UCC is in effect in the jurisdiction where the rights and remedies are asserted) and such additional rights and remedies to which a secured party is entitled under the laws in effect in any jurisdiction where any rights and remedies hereunder may be asserted, including, without limitation, the right, to the maximum extent permitted by law, to exercise all voting, consensual and other powers of ownership pertaining to such Asset as if the Beneficiary were the sole and absolute owner thereof (and the Grantor agrees to take all such action reasonably requested by the Beneficiary as may be appropriate to give effect to such rights);

(ii)	The Beneficiary may make any reasonable compromise or settlement deemed desirable with respect to such Asset and may extend the time of payment, arrange for payment in installments, or otherwise modify the terms of, such Asset; and

(iii)

The Beneficiary in its discretion may, in its name or in the name of the Grantor or otherwise, demand, sue for, collect, direct payment of or receive any money or property at any time payable or receivable on account of or in exchange for such Asset, but shall be under no obligation to do so.

(j) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing Section 1A(i), to the

extent the provisions of the UCC require the Beneficiary to conduct a public or private sale in connection with the withdrawal by the Beneficiary of any Asset pursuant to a Beneficiary Withdrawal Notice, the following shall apply in connection with such sale and withdrawal:

(i)

The Beneficiary, without demand of performance or other demand, presentment, protest, advertisement or notice of any kind (except any notice required by law referred to below or otherwise required hereby) to or upon the Grantor or any other Person (all and each of which demands, presentments, protests, advertisements and notices, or other defenses, are hereby waived to the extent permitted under Applicable Law), may in such circumstances forthwith collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon such Asset, or any part thereof, and/or may forthwith sell, assign, give option or options to purchase or otherwise dispose of and deliver the Asset or any part thereof (or contract to do any of the foregoing), in one or more parcels at public or private sale or sales, in the over-the-counter market, at any exchange, broker’s board or office of the Beneficiary or elsewhere upon such terms and conditions as it may deem advisable and at such prices as it may deem best in its sole discretion, for cash or on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk. The Beneficiary shall have the right, without notice or publication, to adjourn any public or private sale or cause the same to be adjourned from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed for such sale, and any such sale may be made at any time or place to which the same may be adjourned without further notice. The Beneficiary shall have the right, upon any such public sale or sales and to the extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale or sales, to purchase the whole or any part of the Asset so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption of the Grantor, which right or equity of redemption is hereby waived or released. The Beneficiary shall apply any Proceeds from time to time held by it and the net proceeds of any such collection, recovery, receipt, appropriation, realization or sale, after deducting all reasonable costs and expenses of every kind incurred therein or incidental to the care or safekeeping of such Asset or in any way relating to such Asset or the rights of the Beneficiary hereunder, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, to the payment in whole or in part of the Secured Obligations, in such order as the Beneficiary may elect, and only after such application and after the payment by the Beneficiary of any other amount required by any provision of law, including, without limitation, Sections 9-610 and 9-615 of the UCC, shall the Beneficiary be required to account for the surplus, if any, to the Grantor. To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, the Grantor waives all claims, damages and demands it may acquire against the Beneficiary arising out of the exercise by the Beneficiary of any of its rights under this Section 1A(j)(i), except for any claims, damages and demands it may have against the Beneficiary arising from the willful misconduct or gross negligence of the Beneficiary or its affiliates, or any agents or employees of the foregoing. To the extent that the Beneficiary is required by the UCC to deliver prior notice to the Grantor of the date, time and place of any public sale of such Asset or of the date after which any private sale or any other intended disposition of such Asset is to be made, the Grantor agrees that at least ten (10) days’ prior written notice of such sale is reasonable.

(ii)

The rights, powers, privileges and remedies of the Beneficiary under this Agreement are cumulative and shall be in addition to all rights, powers, privileges and remedies available to the Beneficiary at law or in equity. All such rights, powers and remedies shall be cumulative and may be exercised successively or concurrently without impairing the rights of the Beneficiary hereunder.

(iii)

For any Asset sold by the Beneficiary pursuant to this Agreement, the Beneficiary shall conduct such sale in a commercially reasonable manner, and a sale or other disposition of such Asset conducted in conformity with reasonable commercial practices of banks, insurance companies or other financial institutions in disposing of property similar to such Asset shall be deemed to be conducted in a commercially reasonable manner. Without in any way limiting the Beneficiary’s right to conduct a foreclosure sale in any manner which is considered commercially reasonable, the Grantor hereby agrees that any foreclosure sale conducted in accordance with the immediately preceding provisions shall be considered a commercially reasonable sale and hereby irrevocably waives any right to contest any such sale.

Section 2. Withdrawal of Assets from the Trust Accounts

(a) (i) In the absence of a Recapture Event Notice delivered by the Beneficiary to the Trustee with a concurrent copy to the Grantor, the Beneficiary shall have the right to withdraw Assets from the Main Trust Account in accordance with Section 3(a) for one or more of the purposes, and subject to the limitations, set forth in Section 4.8(a) of the Reinsurance Agreement and the fourth sentence of Section 8.4 of the Reinsurance Agreement upon prior written notice from a Beneficiary Authorized Officer to the Trustee with a copy to the Grantor, substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B applicable in the absence of a Recapture Event (a “Beneficiary Withdrawal Notice”) specifying the Assets to be withdrawn.

The Grantor shall not have the right to withdraw Assets from the Funding Trust Account unless consented to by the Beneficiary. Any such withdrawals shall be used only for the purpose set forth in Section 4.4(c) of the Reinsurance Agreement. This Section 2(a)(ii) shall not be subject to the terms and conditions set forth in Section 3(a).

Each withdrawal from the Trust Accounts by the Beneficiary shall constitute a representation and certification by the Beneficiary to the Grantor that such withdrawal is being made in accordance with the terms of the Reinsurance Agreement and this Agreement. The Beneficiary shall not deliver a Beneficiary Withdrawal Notice or a

Funding Trust Account Withdrawal Notice except as expressly permitted by this

Section 2(a).

(iv)

The Trustee shall have no responsibility to determine whether the Beneficiary or the Grantor have complied with the limitations on withdrawals contained in the Reinsurance Agreement and shall conclusively presume that any instruction or other direction received by it pursuant to this Section 2(a) is compliant with and does not violate the terms of the Reinsurance Agreement.

(b) (i) In the absence of a Recapture Event Notice or Triggering Event Notice delivered by the Beneficiary to the Trustee with a concurrent copy to the Grantor, if the aggregate Statutory Book Value of all the Assets at the end of any Accounting Period exceeds the Required Balance, then the Grantor shall have the right to withdraw Assets from the Main Trust Account in accordance with Section 3(b), but only to the extent of such excess. The Grantor shall have the right to withdraw Assets from the Main Trust Account pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence upon prior written notice from a Grantor Authorized Officer to the Trustee with a concurrent copy to the Beneficiary, substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D applicable in the absence of a Triggering Event and/or Recapture Event (a “Grantor Withdrawal Notice”) specifying the Assets to be withdrawn. Each withdrawal from the Trust Accounts by the Grantor under this Section 2(b)(i) shall constitute a representation and certification of the Grantor, on which the Trustee may conclusively rely, that (i) such withdrawal is being made in accordance with the terms of the Reinsurance Agreement and this Agreement, (ii) the Market-to-Book Requirement referenced in Section 4.9(a)(i)(B) of the Reinsurance

Agreement is satisfied and (iii) the aggregate Statutory Book Value of the Eligible Assets in the Trust Accounts immediately following such withdrawal is at least equal to the Required Balance set forth in the most recent Security Funding Report.

(ii)

In the absence of a Recapture Event Notice or Triggering Event Notice delivered by the Beneficiary to the Trustee with a concurrent copy to the Grantor, during the period when the Hedge Account Control Agreements are in effect, the Grantor shall have the right to withdraw Assets from the Main Trust Account in accordance with Section 3(b) solely for the purposes, and subject to the limitations, set forth in

Section 4.9(b)(i) of the Reinsurance Agreement upon delivery of a Grantor Withdrawal Notice to the Trustee with a concurrent copy to the Beneficiary specifying the Assets to be withdrawn. Each withdrawal from the Trust Accounts by the Grantor under this Section 2(b)(ii) shall constitute a representation and certification of the Grantor, on which the Trustee may conclusively rely, that (i) such withdrawal is being made in accordance with the terms of the Reinsurance Agreement and this Agreement and (ii) the Market-toBook Requirement referenced in Section 4.9(a)(i)(B) of the Reinsurance Agreement is satisfied.

(iii)

The Grantor shall not deliver a Grantor Withdrawal Notice except as expressly permitted by this Section 2(b).

(iv)

The Trustee shall have no responsibility to determine whether the Beneficiary or the Grantor have complied with the limitations on withdrawals contained in the Reinsurance Agreement and shall conclusively presume that any instruction or other direction received by it pursuant to this Section 2(b) is compliant with and does not violate the terms of the Reinsurance Agreement.

(c)

The Party withdrawing Assets as permitted pursuant to Sections 2(a), or 2(b) shall be referred to herein as the “Withdrawing Party” and the Beneficiary Withdrawal Notice, the Funding Trust Account Withdrawal Notice or the Grantor Withdrawal Notice, as applicable, shall be referred to herein as a “Withdrawal Notice.”

(d)	The Beneficiary acknowledges and agrees that any Assets which are

required to be re-registered in the name of the Trustee or its nominee may not be readily available for immediate withdrawal from the Main Trust Account during the period that such Assets are out for re-registration by the issuer, its registrar or transfer agent.

Section 3. Procedure for Withdrawals of Assets; Certain Covenants

(a)(i) In the event the Beneficiary is the Withdrawing Party pursuant to Section 2(a)(i), the Beneficiary shall transmit an e-mail to the Trustee and all of the Grantor’s representatives then-listed on Exhibit E (as such list may be modified from time to time by the Grantor in written notice to both the Trustee and the Beneficiary, given as provided in Section 21), attaching an executed Beneficiary Withdrawal Notice in PDF format with the cover note to such email transmission stating that such email transmission, together with the Beneficiary Withdrawal Notice attached thereto, constitutes a notice to the Trustee and the Grantor in accordance with Section 21 and is a direction from the Beneficiary to the Trustee with respect to withdrawing Assets from the Main Trust Account as set forth in the attached Beneficiary Withdrawal Notice (any transmission of such email, a “Beneficiary Email Notice”). (ii) The occurrence of any one of the following four events subsequent to the Beneficiary giving the Beneficiary Withdrawal Notice as contained in the Beneficiary Email Notice to the Trustee and the Grantor shall be a condition precedent to the withdrawal of Assets by the Beneficiary in accordance with the Beneficiary Withdrawal Notice delivered under Section 3(a)(i):

(A)

Five (5) Business Days shall have elapsed from and including the date on which the Trustee and the Grantor originally received the Beneficiary Email Notice containing such Beneficiary Withdrawal Notice, and the Trustee shall not have received any notice, given as provided in Section 21, from the Grantor disputing the amount requested for withdrawal by the Beneficiary in the Beneficiary Withdrawal Notice; or

(B)	The Trustee shall have received a certificate signed by the Beneficiary and the Grantor fixing and determining the amount of

Assets, if any, the Beneficiary may withdraw from the Main Trust Account; or

(b)(i) In the event that the Grantor is the Withdrawing Party pursuant to Section 2(b), the Grantor shall transmit an email to the Trustee and all of the Beneficiary’s representatives then-listed on Exhibit F (as such list may be modified from time to time by the Beneficiary in written notice to both the Trustee and the Grantor, given as provided in Section 21), attaching an executed Grantor Withdrawal Notice in PDF format with the cover note to such email transmission stating that such email transmission, together with the Grantor Withdrawal Notice attached thereto, constitutes a notice to the Trustee and the Beneficiary in accordance with Section 21 and is a direction from the Grantor to the Trustee with respect to withdrawing assets from the Main Trust Account as set forth in the attached Grantor Withdrawal Notice (any transmission of such email, a “Grantor Email Notice”).

(ii) The occurrence of any one of the following four events subsequent to the Grantor giving the Grantor Withdrawal Notice as contained in the Grantor Email Notice to the Trustee and the Beneficiary shall be a condition precedent to the withdrawal of Assets by the Grantor in accordance with the Grantor Withdrawal Notice delivered under Section 3(b)(i):

(D)	The Trustee shall have received, in the manner provided in Section 21, written confirmation from the Beneficiary consenting to the withdrawal requested in the Grantor Withdrawal Notice.

The satisfaction of such condition precedent shall be the sole condition to the withdrawal of such Assets by the Grantor.

(c)

Following receipt of a Withdrawal Notice as contained in the Beneficiary Email Notice or the Grantor Email Notice, as applicable, and upon the satisfaction of any one of the conditions set forth in Section 3(a)(ii) or 3(b)(ii), as applicable, the Trustee shall promptly (i) take any and all steps necessary to transfer, absolutely and unequivocally, all right, title and interest to the Assets specified in such Withdrawal Notice and (ii) deliver such Assets as specified in such notice to the appropriate Party. The Beneficiary or Grantor (as applicable) shall acknowledge receipt of any such Assets withdrawn upon request by the Trustee.

(d)

The Trustee shall be fully protected in relying conclusively upon any Withdrawal Notice or any other written demand, instruction, direction, acknowledgment, statement, notice, resolution, request, consent, order, certificate, report, appraisal, opinion, electronic mail, letter, or other communication of the Beneficiary or the Grantor, as applicable, for any such withdrawal that on its face conforms to the requirements of this Agreement.

(e)	Except as expressly permitted in Sections 4, 5(c), 6(c), 6(e), 13, 14 and 15,

in the absence of a Withdrawal Notice, the Trustee shall not allow substitutions or withdrawals of any Asset from the Trust Accounts. The Parties agree that the Trustee shall have no responsibility whatsoever to determine that any Assets withdrawn from the Trust Accounts pursuant to Section 2 will be used and applied in the manner contemplated therein.

(f)	The Grantor shall neither use, nor attempt to use, the Assets to satisfy any

of its debts, contracts or liabilities to others prior to withdrawing such Assets in accordance with the terms of the Reinsurance Agreement and this Agreement. The Trustee may neither take, nor consent to the taking of, any action that would or could result in the placement of any lien on any of the Trust Accounts’ Assets other than for the benefit of the Beneficiary in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. In addition, the Trustee shall have no authority to assign, transfer, pledge, or set off any of the Trust Accounts’ Assets except as expressly permitted herein. Neither the Grantor, nor the Trustee, nor their respective successors and assigns, shall alienate, sell, transfer, assign, encumber or otherwise impair any of the Trust Accounts’ Assets except as stated under this Agreement. Any attempt to do so in the contrary shall be void and of no force or effect.

(g)	The Grantor may retain (and pay the service fees of) an investment

manager (the “Investment Manager”) to manage and make investment decisions with regard to any of the Assets, and the Grantor agrees to provide reasonable advance written notice to the Trustee and the Beneficiary of the appointment of each Investment Manager so retained; provided, that the Grantor shall remain responsible for all its obligations or liabilities under this Agreement despite delegation of any such obligations or liabilities to such Investment Manager and the Grantor shall be liable with respect to the services to be provided by the Investment Manager as if provided by the Grantor.

Section 4. Redemption, Investment and Substitution of Assets

(a)	The Trustee shall surrender for payment all maturing Assets and all Assets

called for redemption and deposit the principal amount of the proceeds of any such payment to the Trust Accounts and shall provide notice thereof by Electronic Methods to the Beneficiary and the Grantor.

(b)	From time to time, at the written order and direction of the Grantor or its

designated Investment Manager, and without consent of, or prior notice to, the Beneficiary (but subject to Section 4(c)), the Trustee shall invest and reinvest the Assets in Eligible Assets. The Trustee shall have no responsibility whatsoever to determine that such designated investments constitute Eligible Assets, and may rely on the direction of the Grantor or its designated Investment Manager. For the avoidance of doubt, following the delivery by the Beneficiary to the Trustee of a Triggering Event Notice or a Recapture Event Notice, investment, reinvestment or substitutions shall require the Beneficiary’s prior written consent in accordance with Sections 14 and 15.

(c)	From time to time subject to Sections 14 and 15, the Grantor or its

designated Investment Manager may direct the Trustee to substitute Assets; provided, that (A) at the time of such substitution, the Assets to be withdrawn are replaced with other Eligible Assets having a Statutory Book Value at least equal to the Statutory Book Value of the Assets to be withdrawn, and (B) the Market-to-Book Requirement is satisfied; provided that for purposes of clause (B), during the period when the Hedge Account Control Agreements are in effect, in determining the Market-to-Book Ratio, the Fair Market Value of Eligible Assets in the Trust Account shall include the Hedging Assets Value of the Hedging Assets held pursuant to such Hedge Account Control Agreements. The Trustee shall have no responsibility whatsoever to determine the value of such replacement Assets or that such replacement Assets constitute Eligible Assets. Each such direction by Grantor or its designated Investment Manager to substitute Assets shall constitute a representation and certification by the Grantor that such substitution is being made in accordance with the terms of the Reinsurance Agreement and this Agreement.

(d)

All investments, reinvestments and substitutions of Assets referred to in Sections 4(b) and (c) shall be in compliance with the definition of “Eligible Assets” in Section 17. Any instruction or order concerning such investments, reinvestments or substitutions of Assets shall be referred to herein as an “Investment Order.” The Trustee shall execute Investment Orders and settle securities transactions by itself or may utilize agents or brokers, including Affiliates. The Trustee shall not be responsible for any act or omission, or for the solvency, of any such agent or broker (other than as a result of the Trustee’s fraud, negligence, willful misconduct or lack of good faith with respect to its selection of such agent or broker). The Grantor shall reimburse the Trustee such fees and charges as such agent or broker customarily charges.

(e)

Subject to Section 5 relating to Whole Loans and Participation Assets, Section 6 relating to Non-U.S. Private Placements, Section 7 relating to Non-Public Assets and Section 8 relating to Fund Investments, when the Trustee is directed to deliver or receive securities against delivery, delivery will be made in accordance with generally-accepted market practice.

(f)	Any loss incurred from the performance of any investment shall be borne

exclusively by the Trust Accounts. The Trustee shall not be liable for any loss due solely to changes in market rates or penalties for early redemption executed pursuant to an Investment Order.

Section 5. Whole Loans and Participation Assets

Deposits of Whole Loans and Participation Assets

(a)(i) In connection with the deposit of any Whole Loan or Participation Asset

into the Trust Accounts, the Grantor shall, simultaneously with such deposit, deliver to (x) the Trustee the Loan Assignment Documents and Loan Assignment Document Certification applicable to such Whole Loan or Participation Asset, (y) each of the Beneficiary and the Servicer a copy of such Loan Assignment Documents and Loan Assignment Document

Certification and (z) the Servicer all other documentation and files related to such Whole Loan or

Participation Asset in the Grantor’s possession. Any delivery of Whole Loans or Participation Assets to the Trustee shall be accompanied by a Loan Assignment Document Certification from the Grantor certifying to the Trustee each of the original documents and copies of documents in hard copy form delivered to the Trustee for each of the Whole Loans or Participation Assets, as applicable, or if with the consent of the Trustee, copies of documents are provided on electronic media, then identifying the electronic media on which such copies are provided. A Whole Loan or Participation Asset shall be deemed an Asset in the Trust Accounts only after all Loan Assignment Documents and Loan Assignment Document Certification (other than Trailing Documents) have been received by the Trustee and no Exception (other than if the Exception is the absence of a Trailing Document) is noted by the Trustee on the Custody Transmission. The Grantor shall be solely responsible for delivering to the Trustee in a timely manner each and every document required for each Whole Loan and Participation Asset deposited into the Trust Accounts, and for completing or correcting any missing, incomplete or inconsistent documents and, except as specifically provided herein, the Trustee shall not be responsible or liable for taking any action to ensure the Grantor has complied with its delivery obligation hereunder, causing any other Person to do so or notifying the Grantor that any such action has or has not been taken. Upon the Trustee’s receipt of the Loan Assignment Documents and Loan Assignment Document Certification related to a Whole Loan or Participation Asset, the Trustee shall provide, via Electronic Methods, confirmation of receipt to the Grantor and the Beneficiary within one (1) Business Day following the Trustee’s receipt thereof. The Trustee shall provide a Custody Transmission to the Grantor and the Beneficiary with respect to every Whole Loan and Participation Asset deposited in the Trust Accounts (A) within five (5) Business Days following the Trustee’s review of the Loan Assignment Documents in accordance with Section 5(a)(ii), (B) on a monthly basis concurrently with the delivery of the Monthly Statement, and (C) upon request of the Beneficiary or Grantor.

(ii)

With respect to every Whole Loan or Participation Asset delivered to the Trustee, after its receipt of the Loan Assignment Documents for such Whole Loan or Participation Asset, as applicable, the Trustee shall promptly, and in any event within five (5) Business Days, compare such documentation to the applicable Loan Assignment Document Certification. Upon its examination of the Loan Assignment Documents, as applicable, relating to any Whole Loan or Participation Asset, if the Trustee shall determine that such documents do not conform to the description of such documents specified in the Loan Assignment Document Certification delivered by the Grantor to the Trustee in respect of such Whole Loan or Participation Asset, or if for any reason the

Trustee is unable to confirm that the documents are as specified in such Loan Assignment

Document Certification, the Trustee shall identify such Whole Loan or Participation

Asset, as applicable, as having an exception (an “Exception”) on the applicable Custody Transmission. Any Whole Loan or Participation Asset deposited into the Trust Accounts for which an Exception (other than if the Exception is the absence of a Trailing Document) has been identified by the Trustee shall not be deemed an “Asset” for purposes of this Agreement. The Parties acknowledge that the Trailing Documents are not required for the initial deposit and acceptance of a Whole Loan in the Trust Accounts. The Grantor covenants that, upon its receipt of a Trailing Document, it shall promptly provide such Trailing Document to the Trustee. In the event that the Trailing Documents with respect to any Whole Loan are not so provided within one hundred eighty (180) days following such initial deposit and acceptance, such Whole Loan shall cease to be an “Asset” for the purposes of this Agreement, in each case, until all Trailing Documents are delivered to the Trustee.

(iii)

Notwithstanding Section 5(a)(ii), it is herein acknowledged that, in accepting a deposit of any Whole Loan or Participation Asset into the Trust Accounts, the Trustee shall be under no duty or obligation to inspect, review or examine the actual content or substance of any related Loan Assignment Documents, any other loan document, security document or any other related document, instrument or agreement or to determine that they are genuine, enforceable, or appropriate for the represented purpose or that they have actually been recorded or that they are other than what they purport to be on their face. In no event shall the Trustee be responsible for the preparation of any Loan Assignment Documents, any other loan document, security document or any other instruments, agreements or documents relating to the Whole Loan or Participation Asset, as applicable, or required for the deposit of the Whole Loan or Participation Asset into the Trust Accounts or for the expenses of such preparation or any other costs related thereto, including any filing fees therefor.

(iv)

The Trustee’s administrative obligations hereunder in respect of the Whole Loans and Participation Assets shall be limited to (A) holding the Whole Loans and Participation Assets in trust, (B) the preparation and delivery of a Custody Transmission in respect of each Whole Loan and Participation Asset, including confirmation that the Trustee has received fully executed versions of each document that it has received and identification of any Exceptions thereon, and (C) the execution of instruments or other documents provided to it, and the Trustee shall take no action with respect to any Whole Loan, Participation Asset or any Underlying Asset, except at the written direction of the Grantor or its designated Investment Manager or the Beneficiary, as applicable, or as otherwise permitted pursuant to this Agreement. To the extent any compensation and expenses payable to any Servicer under the Servicing Agreements are required to be paid by the Grantor and, if charged to and paid by the Trustee, it shall be reimbursed as expenses of the Trustee by the Grantor in accordance with Section 12(a) and no such compensation and expenses may be payable out of the Trust Accounts.

(v)

With respect to any assignment and assumption agreement relating to a Whole Loan, Participation Asset or an Underlying Asset, the Trustee is hereby authorized and directed, in its capacity as Trustee and not in its individual capacity, to execute and deliver such assignment and assumption agreements presented to the Trustee in accordance with this Agreement for execution from time to time. To the extent that, under the assignment and assumption agreements, the Trustee as assignee has undertaken or assumed any obligations or made any representations, warranties or covenants, such obligations, representations, warranties or covenants shall not be those of the Trustee, but shall instead be those of the Grantor and the Grantor shall perform or cause to be performed all such obligations, representations, warranties or covenants.

(vi)

The Grantor hereby covenants and agrees that it will take such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to maintain the assignability of Whole Loans and Participation Assets in the Trust Accounts during the term of this Agreement, including obtaining any consents necessary to transfer any Whole Loans or Participation Assets to or from the Trustee. The Grantor hereby represents and warrants to the Beneficiary and the Trustee that any consents required to effect any sale, transfer or assignment with respect to any Whole Loans and Participation Assets deposited by the Grantor have been or will have been obtained prior to the deposit of such Whole Loans and Participation Assets into the Trust Accounts.

(b) [INTENTIONALLY OMITTED]

(c) Subject to the provisions of this Section 5(c), the Grantor or its designated Investment Manager shall have the right, at any time and from time to time, to withdraw from the Trust Accounts, subject to three (3) Business Days’ prior written notice from the Grantor to the Trustee and the Beneficiary in the form attached hereto as Exhibit G (a “Grantor Servicing Notice”) and, in the event Section 4(c) has been modified as set forth in Section 14 or Section 15, the prior written consent of the Beneficiary (which shall not be unreasonably withheld), such Whole Loans and Participation Assets as are specified in such Grantor Servicing Notice, which notice shall include a certification by the Grantor to the Trustee and the Beneficiary that the withdrawal of the Whole Loan or Participation Asset is required in connection with (i) the payoff of any Whole Loan or the mortgage loan applicable to the Participation Asset, (ii) the sale of a Whole Loan by the Grantor or a mortgage loan applicable to a Participation Asset by the holder thereof or of an Underlying Asset applicable to the Whole Loan or Participation Asset, (iii) the assignment of any Whole Loan or other mortgage loan applicable to a Participation Asset pursuant to the terms of the relevant loan documents, CML Governing Documents and/or the terms hereof, as applicable, or (iv) the modification, servicing, restructuring, foreclosure, deedin-lieu or liquidation of any Whole Loan or any other mortgage loan applicable to the Participation Asset. In the Grantor Servicing Notice delivered in connection with any withdrawal of any Whole Loan or Participation Asset pursuant to this Section 5(c), the Grantor or its Investment Manager shall (1) direct the Trustee in writing to, and the Trustee shall, in its capacity as Trustee and not in its individual capacity, deliver to the Grantor, to the extent applicable, the Loan Assignment Documents and/or any other transfer documents provided to the Trustee for execution in appropriate form, and (2) obtain any consents required to effect such withdrawal, and the Trustee shall reasonably cooperate with the Grantor or the Investment Manager in providing any information or documentation necessary to effect such withdrawal (to the extent such information or documentation exists and is in the possession or control of the Trustee). The Grantor may from time to time designate a third party in a Grantor Servicing Notice to whom the applicable Loan Assignment Documents and/or any other transfer documents shall be delivered, subject to compliance by the Grantor with the terms and provisions of any applicable CML Governing Documents. The Grantor Servicing Notice shall include a certification that the proceeds from a transaction of the type described in the first sentence of this Section 5(c) will be paid into the Trust Accounts within three (3) Business Days. For the avoidance of doubt, in the event that the Grantor comes into possession of any cash proceeds, the Grantor acknowledges and agrees (I) that it holds such proceeds in trust for the benefit of the Beneficiary and (II) that it will transfer such proceeds to the Trust Accounts as soon as reasonably practical following receipt by the Grantor, except in each case, to the extent that it has previously deposited other Eligible Assets into the Trust Accounts to replace some or all of the applicable value of the withdrawn Whole Loan or Participation Asset. The withdrawal of a Whole Loan or Participation Asset pursuant to this Section 5(c) shall reduce the Statutory Book Value and Fair Market Value, as applicable, of the Assets by the applicable value of the asset so withdrawn. The Grantor shall deposit such cash proceeds, and/or other Eligible Assets (which may include a modified or restructured Whole Loan or Participation Asset with a Statutory Book Value and Fair Market Value, as applicable, at least equal to the applicable value of such withdrawn Whole Loan or Participation Asset, as applicable), within three (3) Business Days following such withdrawal. For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall real estate owned resulting from any such foreclosure, deed-in-lieu or other liquidation be deposited into the Trust Accounts. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, at no time shall the applicable value of any Whole Loan or Participation Asset “in transit” (i.e., such Whole Loan or Participation Asset is withdrawn from the Trust Accounts for one of the purposes set forth in clauses (i) through (iv) of the first sentence of this Section 5(c) without simultaneously being replaced with Eligible Assets with the same applicable value) under this Section 5(c) exceed $200 million. The

Grantor shall not be required to present any other statement or document in addition to a Grantor

Servicing Notice (but subject to Section 4(c)), in order to withdraw any Whole Loan or Participation Asset for purposes under this Section, and the Grantor shall acknowledge receipt of any Whole Loan or Participation Asset, withdrawn from the Trust Accounts upon request by the Trustee. The Trustee shall have no liability or responsibility to verify or determine the occurrence of any event or condition giving rise to the Grantor’s right to withdraw Whole Loans or Participation Assets from the Trust Accounts pursuant to a Grantor Servicing Notice or to monitor the Grantor’s compliance with its obligation to deposit proceeds of any withdrawn Asset, and the Trustee shall be fully protected in relying conclusively on the Grantor Servicing Notice.

Withdrawals of Whole Loans and Participation Assets

(d) Without limiting the applicability of Sections 2 and 3, in connection with

the withdrawal of any Whole Loans or Participation Assets by the Beneficiary, the Beneficiary shall direct the Trustee to date and deliver the Loan Assignment Documents, including, if applicable, the original promissory note, and the Trustee shall, in its capacity as Trustee and not in its individual capacity, date any other transfer documents provided to the Trustee for execution in appropriate form, necessary to endorse and transfer the Whole Loans and Participation Assets to the Beneficiary, and the Trustee shall reasonably cooperate with the Beneficiary in providing any information or documentation necessary to effect such assignment

(to the extent such information or documentation exists and is in the possession or control of the Trustee). The Grantor hereby grants the Beneficiary a limited power of attorney to act on the behalf of the Grantor to the extent (and only to such extent) necessary to obtain the consents or approvals required to effect the transfer of any Whole Loans or Participation Assets in connection with any withdrawal by the Beneficiary permitted hereunder, and the Grantor shall reasonably cooperate with the Beneficiary in providing any information or documentation necessary to effect such sale, transfer or assignment. In the event that the Beneficiary withdraws a Whole Loan or Participation Asset from the Trust Accounts pursuant to this Agreement, only the entire Whole Loan or entire Participation Asset (and not a portion thereof) then in the Trust Accounts may be assigned or transferred to the Beneficiary.

(e) Without limiting the applicability of Sections 2 and 3, in connection with

the withdrawal of any Whole Loans or Participation Assets by the Grantor, the Grantor shall direct the Trustee to deliver the Loan Assignment Documents, including, if applicable, the original promissory note. In the event that the Grantor withdraws a Whole Loan or Participation Asset from the Trust Accounts pursuant to this Agreement, then, unless otherwise agreed upon by the Grantor and the Beneficiary in writing with notice to the Trustee, only the entire Whole Loan or entire Participation Asset (and not a portion thereof) then in the Trust Accounts may be withdrawn by the Grantor.

Servicing of Whole Loans and Participation Assets

(f) Except with respect to any Whole Loan or Participation Assets withdrawn

by the Beneficiary in accordance with the terms hereof, subject to its compliance with Sections 2, 3, 5, 7, 14 and 15, the Grantor (or its Investment Manager) shall have the right, power, authority and obligation to service, administer, manage, liquidate, deal with, issue or withhold any consents or waivers, amend, modify, extend, or make any other decisions in respect of any Whole Loans or Participation Assets in any manner that it shall choose, subject only to the limitations set forth in this Agreement and any applicable CML Governing Document; provided, that the Trustee shall be entitled to receive on behalf of the Grantor all Income in respect of Whole Loans and Participation Assets in accordance with Section 9 (whether from any Servicer, borrower or other Person), and to retain, use, enjoy the same subject only to the limitations set forth in this Agreement and any applicable CML Governing Document. Except with respect to any Whole Loan or Participation Asset withdrawn by the Beneficiary in accordance with the terms hereof, the Grantor (or its Investment Manager) shall have the right, power and authority to make decisions and take other actions in respect of (i) any Whole Loans (and any related Underlying Assets) under any CML Governing Documents affecting the Whole Loans (and any related Underlying Assets) and (ii) any Participation Assets (and any related Underlying Assets) under any CML Governing Document affecting the Participation Assets or the related Underlying Assets, in each case, as fully and completely as if this Agreement had not been executed and delivered; provided, that the sale, transfer or assignment of any such Whole Loan or Participation Asset shall only be effectuated by substitution, exchange and withdrawal pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. The Grantor shall have the power, authority and obligation, acting alone or through its Investment Manager, Servicers or sub-servicers, to do any and all things in connection with such servicing, administration, management and liquidation of the Whole Loans and Participation Assets which it may deem necessary or desirable to maximize recoveries with respect thereto, subject to the limitations contained in this Agreement and any applicable CML Governing Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Grantor shall continue, and is hereby authorized and empowered hereunder, to prepare and file, or cause the Servicer or any sub-servicers to prepare and file, at the Grantor’s expense, any and all financing statements, continuation statements and other documents or instruments necessary to maintain the lien on any Underlying Assets. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Trustee shall not date, endorse, record or transfer any Loan Assignment Document except in accordance with the written directions of the Grantor or its Investment Manager in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or, upon receipt of a Beneficiary Withdrawal Notice, in accordance with the written direction of the Beneficiary.

(g) The Trustee, in its capacity as Trustee and not in its individual capacity,

upon receipt of a written request from the Grantor or its Investment Manager, shall execute and deliver any powers of attorney and other documents provided to it which the Grantor or its Investment Manager determines, in the exercise of its reasonable judgment, are necessary in order to enable any Servicer to carry out its duties under the Servicing Agreements or any other CML Governing Document, or to enable the Grantor or its Investment Manager to take appropriate action in respect of the ownership, assignment, transfer and liquidation of the Whole Loans or the Participation Assets (and any related Underlying Assets), as applicable, subject to the limitations in this Agreement. The Trustee acknowledges that the Grantor may, from time to time, execute and deliver a limited power of attorney in order to enable the Investment Manager or the Servicers to carry out their duties under any Servicing Agreements and other CML Governing Documents applicable to Whole Loans or Participation Assets (and to any related Underlying Assets). The authority of the Grantor, its Investment Manager or any Servicer shall include the power to (i) enforce, modify, amend, renew or extend the Whole Loans, the Participation Assets or the Underlying Assets, (ii) grant or withhold any consents or waivers under or in respect of the Whole Loans, the Participation Assets or the Underlying Assets, (iii) file and collect insurance claims, (iv) release any Underlying Asset or any other collateral or any party from any liability on or with respect to any of the Whole Loans or the Participation Assets, (v) compromise or settle any claims of any kind or character with respect to any of the Whole Loans or the Participation Assets, subject to any limitations provided herein, (vi) initiate, complete or otherwise take any action with respect to a foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure, on any of the Underlying Assets, (vii) repair, replace, renovate, restore and improve the Underlying Assets, (viii) negotiate and contract to sell and sell any Whole Loan or Participation Asset (including through receipt of a discounted pay-off on such Asset), (ix) commence, continue, negotiate, or settle litigation relating to a Whole Loan, Participation Asset or the Underlying Assets, (x) make any servicing or other advances, (xi) act as a mortgagee in possession or receiver or in any other capacity with respect to the Underlying Assets, (xii) exercise any and all rights in respect of the Whole Loans, the Participation Assets and the

Underlying Assets, or (xiii) take any action with respect to any security document securing a Whole Loan or Participation Asset, effectuate foreclosure or other conversion of the ownership of any Underlying Asset, including the employment of attorneys, the institution of legal proceedings, the acceptance of compromise proposals, the filing of claims for mortgage insurance, the collection of liquidation proceeds, seeking a receiver, appointing a new property manager and any other matter pertaining to a Whole Loan, Participation Asset or an Underlying Asset. When the Grantor or its Investment Manager, in the exercise of its reasonable business judgment, finds it appropriate, it shall execute and deliver, on behalf of the Trustee, in its capacity as Trustee and not in its individual capacity, any instruments of satisfaction, cancellation, partial or full release, discharge, transfer and all other comparable instruments, with respect to the related Whole Loan, Participation Asset or the Underlying Asset, as applicable, provided that the execution and delivery of such instrument is necessary in order to enable any Servicer to carry out its duties under the Servicing Agreements or any related loan document. Any such action taken by the Grantor or its Investment Manager shall be subject in all respects to the terms of this Agreement (including, without limitation, Section 4 regarding substitution of Assets). The Grantor may exercise all of the powers set forth herein in its own name, and Grantor’s Investment Manager may exercise all of the powers set forth herein in it is own name or in the name of the Grantor. Upon written request of the Grantor or the Investment Manager, the Trustee shall execute and deliver any documents provided to it and reasonably requested by the Grantor or the Investment Manager in furtherance of or incidental to any of the foregoing actions.

(h) The Grantor or its Investment Manager may retain a professional servicer

or sub-servicer as Servicer, as applicable, to service the Whole Loans or mortgage loans to which the Participation Assets relate on its behalf, in furtherance of the Grantor’s right, power, authority and obligation to service, manage and administer the Whole Loans and the Participation Assets in the Trust Accounts, upon reasonable advance written notice to, but without the approval or consent of, the Trustee or the Beneficiary, but subject to the rights in and requirements of the Servicing Agreements and the other CML Governing Documents; provided, that the retention of such Servicer shall not relieve the Grantor from any of its obligations or liabilities hereunder, and the Grantor shall remain responsible for all obligations or liabilities of such Servicer with respect to the provision of such service or services as if provided by the Grantor. To the extent permitted under the applicable CML Governing Documents, the Grantor may remove any Servicer under any Servicing Agreements and appoint a successor Servicer pursuant to the terms of the Servicing Agreements and any other applicable CML Governing Documents, without the consent or approval of, but only upon written notice of such removal and appointment to, the Trustee and the Beneficiary. Upon any withdrawal by the Beneficiary of a Whole Loan or Participation Asset from the Trust Accounts in accordance with Section 2(a), if so directed by the Beneficiary and to the extent Grantor has such rights under the applicable Servicing Agreement and/or other CML Governing Documents, Grantor shall exercise its termination rights under such Servicing Agreement with respect to such Whole Loan or Participation Asset as promptly as possible in accordance with the terms of such Servicing Agreement and/or other CML Governing Document, at the sole expense of the Grantor, and without the need for any further action by the Trustee, and upon such termination, the Beneficiary, subject to the terms and provisions of the applicable CML Governing Documents, shall have the right to appoint a successor servicer without the consent or approval of the Trustee or the Grantor. The Grantor agrees to, and shall cause the Servicer to, reasonably cooperate with the Beneficiary to assist with the transfer of servicing responsibilities to the successor Servicer appointed by the Beneficiary. Subject to the terms and provisions of any applicable CML Governing Documents, in connection with any withdrawal by the Beneficiary, the Grantor shall, or shall cause any such Servicer to, transfer to the Beneficiary all funds held by the Grantor with respect to such Whole Loan and use commercially reasonable efforts to transfer to the Beneficiary all funds held by such Servicer with respect to such Whole Loan or Participation Asset, including without limitation all collections, reserves and escrows relating to such Whole Loans or Participation Assets.

(i) With the exception of the Loan Assignment Documents to be delivered to

the Trustee in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Servicer shall retain and be charged with maintaining possession of the Servicing File. Upon the deposit to the Trust Accounts of any Whole Loan (other than a Participated Whole Loan or Co-Lending Asset), (i) the Grantor shall deliver to the Trustee a letter in the form attached hereto as Exhibit H, executed in blank by an authorized signatory and addressed to the applicable Servicer, instructing such Servicer to release the Servicing File to the Trustee or to the Beneficiary in accordance with the terms hereof, whenever requested by the Trustee (the “Document Release Letter”), and (ii) within thirty (30) calendar days of the date of deposit, the Grantor shall provide the Servicer’s list of the documents in the Servicing File to the Trustee and the Beneficiary. The delivery of the Document Release Letter by the Grantor to the Trustee shall constitute a representation and certification by the Grantor to the Trustee and the Beneficiary that such Document Release Letter is sufficient under the terms of the applicable Servicing Agreement to require the Servicer to release the Servicing File to the Trustee without the further consent of the Grantor or any other Person. The Servicing Agreements applicable to such Whole Loans shall not be amended, modified or supplemented in any way that adversely impacts the ability of the Trustee to obtain the Servicing File without the prior written consent of the Beneficiary. As promptly as practicable following the date hereof, and in any event within thirty (30) days of the date of deposit, the Grantor shall arrange with the Servicer to separately designate the Servicing File from other documents held by the Servicer for the benefit of the Grantor and provide written notice to the Trustee and the Beneficiary when such access has been arranged. Such direct access arrangements with the Servicer shall not be changed without the consent of the Beneficiary. The Trustee acknowledges that the Beneficiary may instruct the Trustee to withdraw any documents in the Servicing File in accordance with a Beneficiary Withdrawal Notice, provided, however, that for any Whole Loan which is a Participated Whole Loan or CoLending Asset, the Beneficiary understands and agrees that without a Document Release Letter the Trustee will not have the ability to direct a Servicer to release a document contained in the Servicing File.

(j) In order to facilitate the servicing, administration and enforcement of the Whole Loans and the Participation Assets by or on behalf of the Grantor, and the servicing of the Whole Loans and the Participation Assets by the Servicers, the Grantor (if it is not using a third party Servicer) or Servicers may temporarily hold collections on such Whole Loans or Participation Assets prior to the time they are remitted to the Trustee and may hold physical possession of any related documents or instruments, subject to the terms and provisions of any applicable CML Governing Documents. Upon written request of the Grantor to the Trustee (with a simultaneous copy to the Beneficiary) pursuant to the terms hereof, the Trustee shall promptly release, deliver or transfer such documents and instruments as may be requested from time to time by the Grantor or Grantor’s Investment Manager. The Trustee and the Grantor hereby acknowledge that the Grantor and the Servicers are acting as agents and bailees of the Trustee in holding such monies pursuant to this Agreement (with respect to the Grantor), the

Servicing Agreement (with respect to the Servicers of the Participation Assets) and the Servicing

Agreements (with respect to the Servicers of the Whole Loans), and that the Grantor and the Servicers are acting as the Trustee’s agent and bailee in holding any documents or instruments released, delivered or transferred to the Grantor or any Servicer pursuant to this Agreement, and any other items constituting a part of the Trust Accounts which from time to time come into the possession of the Grantor or any Servicer.

(k) Each of the Parties hereby acknowledges that the rights and obligations of

the Grantor under the CML Governing Documents have not been transferred to or accepted or assumed by the Trustee.

(l) The Grantor hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Trustee shall not

have any obligations relating to any future funding commitments in respect of the Assets (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the Whole Loans and the Participation Assets), and that Grantor shall remain liable for any such future funding commitments.

(m) The Grantor agrees that it will not enter into any amendment, modification

or supplement to any CML Governing Document that is reasonably expected to adversely affect the rights of the Beneficiary in any respect without the prior written consent of the Beneficiary.

Additional Rights and Duties of the Trustee Relating to Whole Loans and Participation Assets

(n) The Trustee shall not foreclose on, direct or consent to the foreclosure of,

any Underlying Asset or take title to such Underlying Asset by deed-in-lieu of foreclosure or other means except that, in connection with the Grantor, the Servicer or the Beneficiary taking such action, the Trustee shall execute such documents, in its capacity as Trustee and not in its individual capacity, provided to it and take such other action as may be reasonably required, in accordance with instructions from the Grantor or the Beneficiary provided pursuant to the terms hereof.

(o) Any notice or correspondence received by the Trustee from any Person in

respect of any Whole Loan or any Participation Asset shall be promptly forwarded to the Grantor and its Investment Manager pursuant to the notice provisions contained in this Agreement and, unless the Grantor or its Investment Manager provides written instructions to the Trustee in accordance with terms of this Agreement, the Trustee shall take no other action with respect to any such notice or correspondence (other than such action explicitly required under this Agreement, including the provision of a Beneficiary Withdrawal Notice under Section 2(a)), and the Trustee shall not be liable for failure to take any action relating thereto.

Section 6. Private Placements

(a)

The Trustee shall, at the written direction of the Grantor or its Investment Manager, settle trades for Private Placements with cash held in the Trust Accounts pending receipt of the original evidence of indebtedness or ownership of such private placements or other Assets in accordance with the directions from the Grantor or its designated Investment Manager (which original evidence of indebtedness or ownership may not be delivered for a period following the Trustee’s withdrawal of such cash). The Grantor or its Investment Manager shall execute and deliver and keep current, all such agreements, instruments and documents (including such bond or stock powers, corporate resolutions or other certificates or instruments of transfer as may be required by the applicable issuer) and take all such further actions as the Trustee or the Beneficiary may reasonably request in order to deposit and maintain all such Private Placements, and any income or distributions thereon, in the Trust Accounts for the benefit of the Beneficiary in accordance with the terms hereof. Any investment directed by the Grantor or its Investment Manager will constitute a certification by the Grantor to the Beneficiary and the Trustee that the settlement procedures set forth in the applicable investment documentation is acceptable to the Grantor and directed hereunder, upon which direction the Grantor and the Beneficiary agree the Trustee may conclusively rely. The Trustee shall be fully protected in complying with the written directions of the Grantor or its Investment Manager under this Section 6(a), and the Trustee shall have no responsibility to take action to compel the delivery of any original evidence of indebtedness or ownership of any Private Placement to be provided hereunder. The Beneficiary and the Trustee acknowledge and agree that the right to sell, transfer or assign a Private Placement may be qualified under the agreement evidencing or affecting the Private Placement.

(b)	Private Placements shall be held in registered form but shall not be re-

registered in the name of the Trustee or its nominee and shall be held in the Trustee’s vault maintained at DTCC within the United States. The Trustee shall not be responsible for the collection of any Income made on Private Placements. Such collection shall be the sole responsibility of the Grantor in accordance with the requirements of Section 6(d). The Trustee shall have no duty or responsibility to notify the Grantor of any rights or discretionary corporate action or other solicitation relating to any Private Placement nor shall the Trustee have any responsibility or liability in connection with the exercise of such rights or discretionary actions. (c) For the purpose of settling swap payments and collecting interest on

foreign currency coupons in connection with Non-U.S. Private Placements held in the Trust Accounts, the Grantor may direct the Trustee in writing to make payments in any currency out of funds available in the Trust Accounts to its counterparties; provided, that the Grantor anticipates the prior or simultaneous delivery from its counterparties of an amount in U.S. dollars equal to or greater than the amount of the funds transferred from the Trust Accounts. Such release and prior or simultaneous receipt of funds shall be treated as a “substitution” for purposes of this Agreement. The Grantor shall give the Beneficiary prior written notice of each such substitution. For the avoidance of doubt, following the delivery by the Beneficiary to the Trustee of a Triggering Event Notice or a Recapture Event Notice, each such substitution shall require the Beneficiary’s prior written consent. The Trustee shall not have any duty or responsibility to determine that adequate funds have been received in the Trust Accounts in connection with a substitution contemplated by this paragraph.

(d) With respect to all Private Placements held hereunder, the Grantor shall,

unless otherwise agreed in writing to the contrary:

(i)

Cause the issuer of any Private Placement to deposit with the Trustee (by means of a check or draft payable to the Trustee or its nominee or by wire transfer) all Income in respect of such Private Placement and advise the Trustee in a certificate of the amount to be received and if such amount relates to a particular loan document, the identity of such loan document;

(ii)	Direct the Trustee to present for payment on the date and at the address specified therein the Private Placements specified therein whether at maturity or for redemption, and to hold hereunder such amounts paid on or with respect to such particular Private Placements as the Trustee may receive;

(iii)

Obtain and execute any certificates of ownership, affidavits, declarations or other certificates under any tax laws now or hereafter in effect in connection with the collection of bond and note coupons; and

(iv)	Cause the issuer to deposit with the Trustee to be held hereunder such additional Private Placements or rights as may be issued with respect to any Private Placements credited to the Trust Accounts hereunder.

(e) Pursuant to DTCC requirements, the Grantor shall be responsible to hold

all bond powers related to Private Placements that are to be re-registered in the name of the Grantor until such time as the re-registration is completed. At such time, the bond power must be delivered by the Grantor directly to DTCC for deposit in the Trustee’s vault along with all necessary identifying information in order to match such bond power with the related Private Placement. The Trustee shall not be responsible to maintain any log or to otherwise track the subsequent receipt of a bond power related to any such re-registered Private Placement; provided that as between the Grantor and the Beneficiary, if such bond power is not delivered to DTCC for the relevant Private Placement upon its re-registration, such Private Placement shall be deemed to have a value of zero in the Trust Account.

Section 7. Non-Public Assets

(a) In the case of Non-Public Assets, the Grantor grants to the Trustee all

powers necessary and reasonable in the performance of its duties hereunder except as otherwise expressly provided herein. Subject to the terms, conditions and limitations set forth in this Agreement, the Trustee, in its capacity as Trustee and not in its individual capacity, may execute and deliver in the name of the Grantor or the Beneficiary, as permitted by Section 2, as the case may be, any Loan Assignment Documents, stock or bond powers, corporate resolutions or other certificates, documents or instruments which the Trustee deems necessary or convenient and proper to: (i) sell, assign, transfer or make other disposition of any Non-Public Assets or any other security or other property in the Trust Accounts; provided, that the Grantor, its Investment Manager or the Beneficiary, as the case may be, shall only direct the Trustee to sell, assign, transfer or dispose of any Whole Loan or Participation Asset by sale, assignment or transfer of the entire Whole Loan or Participation Asset, as applicable (and not a portion thereof); (ii) take any necessary action in relation to any such Non-Public Asset, security or property as required pursuant to Section 5(a) and Section 6(a); or (iii) obtain any payment due, but only as instructed by the Grantor, its Investment Manager or the Beneficiary in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Each of the Trustee (if it is so directed) and the Beneficiary is hereby authorized and empowered hereunder to (x) prepare and file, on behalf of itself or either of them, any UCC-3 assignment or termination, as applicable, (y) record any recordable Loan Assignment Document in the related real property records, in each case, in connection with the withdrawal of any Whole Loan pursuant to a Withdrawal Notice or in connection with the sale, assignment, transfer or other disposition of any Whole Loan in accordance with this Agreement and (z) re-register any Private Placement, in each case, in connection with the withdrawal of such Private Placement pursuant to a Withdrawal Notice or in connection with the sale, assignment, transfer or other disposition of such Private Placement in accordance with this Agreement. The Trustee shall reasonably cooperate with the Beneficiary in providing any information or documentation necessary to effect such withdrawal, sale, assignment, transfer or other disposition of Non-Public Assets or other security or other property in the Trust Accounts (to the extent such information or documentation exists and is in the possession or control of the Trustee) and, with respect to Private Placements, any re-registration in connection therewith. The Grantor hereby grants the Beneficiary a limited power of attorney to act on the behalf of the Grantor to the extent (and only to such extent) necessary to obtain the consents or approvals required to effect the transfer of any Non-Public Assets or any other security or other property in the Trust Accounts in connection with any withdrawal by the Beneficiary permitted hereunder, and the Grantor shall reasonably cooperate with the Beneficiary in providing any information or documentation necessary to effect such sale, transfer, assignment or other disposition and, if applicable, re-registration.

(b)(i) In addition to the requirements of Section 4, as applicable, in connection

with any substitution or exchange of any Whole Loans or Private Placements, the Grantor or its Investment Manager shall (A) direct the Trustee in writing to, and the Trustee shall, in its capacity as Trustee and not in its individual capacity, deliver to the Grantor, to the extent applicable, the Loan Assignment Documents and/or any other transfer documents provided to the Trustee for execution in appropriate form, and (B) obtain any consents required to effect such substitution or exchange, and the Trustee shall reasonably cooperate with the Grantor or the Investment Manager in providing any information or documentation necessary to effect such substitution or exchange (to the extent such information or documentation exists and is in the possession or control of the Trustee). The Grantor may from time to time designate a third party in the Grantor Withdrawal Notice to whom the applicable Loan Assignment Documents and/or any other transfer documents shall be delivered, subject to compliance by the Grantor with the terms and provisions of any applicable CML Governing Documents.

(ii) No Participation Asset (or any related Participation Certificate) held in the Trust Accounts may be substituted or exchanged unless as part of the substitution or exchange, the entire Participation Asset and not a portion thereof (including the related Participation Certificate) is sold, assigned or transferred to the Grantor or the Beneficiary.

(c)

The Trustee shall have no responsibility to certify or warrant that any Non-Public Assets are negotiable, transferable or assignable and shall have no liability (i) to the extent that the Loan Assignment Documents and other instruments or documents provided to the Trustee are not sufficient to effect the transfer, sale or assignment, as applicable, of any NonPublic Asset upon the execution and delivery thereof by the Trustee as provided herein or (ii) to the extent that there is a failure in the withdrawal of a Non-Public Trust Asset specified in a Beneficiary Withdrawal Notice as a result of the Grantor’s sale or transfer of such Non-Public Asset.

(d)

The Grantor and the Beneficiary acknowledge and agree that (i) the Trustee shall have no liability under this Agreement for any action or omission of any of the parties to any Servicing Agreement or any other agreement related to the Non-Public Assets taken pursuant to such agreements, including with respect to any Non-Public Asset at any time during which such Non-Public Asset is under the care, custody, possession or control of any of the parties to any Servicing Agreement or any other agreement related to the Non-Public Assets or any of their respective other depositories, subcustodians, other agents or nominees (and none of such other entities or persons shall be considered to be the depositories, subcustodians, agents or nominees of the Trustee), (ii) the performance by the Trustee of any of its obligations under this Agreement may be delayed, limited or otherwise affected by the actions or omissions of any of the parties to any Servicing Agreement or any other agreement related to the Non-Public Assets or as a result of such Non-Public Asset being subject to any Servicing Agreement, and (iii) the Trustee shall have no liability under this Agreement as a result of the Trustee’s failure to perform any of its obligations under this Agreement as a result of the actions or omissions of any of the parties to any Servicing Agreement or any other agreement related to the Non-Public Assets that cause such failure or as a result of obligations under any Servicing Agreement or any other agreement related to the Non-Public Assets. In no event will the Trustee be required to perform or assume any duties of any party under any Servicing Agreement.

Section 8. Fund Investments

(a) In connection with the deposit of any Fund Investment into the Trust Accounts, such Fund Investment shall be in certificated or physical form and consist of a subscription, participation certificate or other documentation provided by the relevant issuer to represent an ownership interest in such Fund Investments (each, a “Fund Instrument”). It is understood and agreed that where no share or similar certificate has been issued, an originally signed subscription agreement or certified copy of same may serve as a Fund Instrument representing an ownership interest. The Grantor shall deliver any such Fund Investment to the Trustee as part of a document file (a “Fund Document File”) in which it will include the Fund Instrument and any assignments or endorsements in blank in order that the Fund Investment may be negotiated by the Trustee whenever necessary, without the consent of or signature from the Grantor or, except Fund Investments which are NFT Assets, any other Person. In no event shall the Trustee be required to subscribe for, complete, execute and submit any subscription or redemption documentation relating to such Fund Investments.

(b) It is understood and agreed that the Trustee will accept any file purporting

to be a Fund Document File for custody hereunder “as is” and without any examination. The Trustee shall have no duty or responsibility to review any Fund Document File, to determine the contents thereof or to review or inspect any documents contained in such Fund Document File and shall rely, without independent verification, on information provided by the Grantor regarding all Fund Investments. Account statements will only reflect an inventory of the Fund Document Files that the Trustee holds in custody hereunder without any representation as to the contents thereof.

with respect to all Fund Investments held hereunder:

(i)

For Fund Investments other than Fund Investments which are NFT Assets, the Trustee shall have full authority to receive, complete, execute and forward to the appropriate party any and all subscription documentation and to take any other action deemed by the Trustee necessary or desirable, on behalf of the Grantor with respect to the Grantor’s purchase/subscription and sale/redemption of any Fund Investments;

(ii)

Any and all responses, representations, warranties, covenants and indemnities in any subscription documentation with any issuer of a Fund Investment shall be provided by and on behalf of the Grantor as owner/investor/subscriber of the Fund Investment, and shall at all times be true, correct and complete, and the Grantor will immediately notify the Trustee in writing if there is any material change in any such responses, representations or warranties or any material default under any such covenant;

(iii)

The Grantor shall take no action to transfer any interest in a Fund Investment from the nominee name in which such Fund Investment is registered without the express written consent of the Trustee or take any other action that would cause the

Trustee to incur any Losses; and

(iv)	The Grantor shall, unless otherwise agreed in writing to the contrary:

(1)

Cause the issuer of any Fund Investment to deposit with the Trustee (by means of a check or draft payable to the Trustee or its nominee or by wire transfer) all Income in respect of such Fund Investment and advise the Trustee in a certificate of the amount to be received and if such amount relates to a particular Fund Document File, the identity of such Fund Document File;

(2)	Direct the Trustee to present for payment on the date and at the address specified therein the Fund Investments specified therein whether at maturity or for redemption, and to hold hereunder such amounts paid on or with respect to such particular Fund Investments as the Trustee may receive;

(3)	Obtain and execute any certificates of ownership, affidavits, declarations or other certificates under any tax laws now or hereafter in effect; and

(4)	Cause the issuer to deposit with the Trustee to be held hereunder such additional Fund Investments or rights as may be issued with respect to any Fund Investments credited to the Trust Accounts hereunder.

(d)	With respect to purchases and redemptions of Fund Investments, other

than Fund Investments which are NFT Assets, upon the Instructions of the Grantor or the Investment Manager to the Trustee in accordance with terms of this Agreement, the Trustee (or its nominee) will, as agent for the Grantor, subscribe for and redeem shares, units or other interests and complete, execute and submit all relevant subscription and redemption documentation required by the relevant issuer (or its administrator); provided, that: (i) any such subscription documentation will state that the Trustee acts solely as the Trustee on behalf of the Grantor and the responses, representations, warranties, covenants and any indemnities are given solely by and on behalf of the Grantor and solely on the basis of the representation and warranty by the Grantor to the Trustee that such representations and warranties are true, correct and complete and that the Grantor will comply with each such covenant; (ii) any Instructions given to the Trustee hereunder shall be in accordance with the Trustee’s reasonable procedures notified to the Grantor from time to time; and (iii) the Grantor’s delivery to the Trustee of any such Instructions to purchase Fund Investments shall constitute the Grantor’s representation and warranty that the Grantor has reviewed and understands the terms of the relevant offering memorandum or subscription agreement (or similar document) and other document(s) related thereto and agreement to be bound by the terms and conditions thereof (including all responses, representations and warranties to which the Grantor will be bound as beneficial owner of such Fund Investment). The Grantor acknowledges that the decision to invest in Fund Investments rests solely with the Grantor and/or its Investment Manager and under no circumstances shall the Trustee have or be required to have any authority to supervise, monitor or control the Grantor’s investments in Fund Investments, or any other securities or assets of the Grantor, nor shall the Trustee provide any investment advisory services to the Grantor or have any liability related to the foregoing.

(e)	Each of the Trustee and the Beneficiary hereby acknowledge and agree

that the Grantor shall be deemed to be the holder of each Fund Investment for the purposes of exercising, asserting and enforcing any rights (including any consent rights) and performing and satisfying any obligations (including funding any capital commitments, indemnification payments or other funding obligations following the issuance of such Fund Investment) under any partnership agreement or other similar agreement with respect to any Fund Investment until such time as such Fund Investment has been withdrawn by the Beneficiary in accordance with the terms of this Trust Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, unless withdrawn by the Beneficiary, any powers to be exercised by the Grantor as the deemed holder of a Fund Investment (including approvals and consents required to be obtained from such holder) shall be exercised by the Grantor in any manner it so chooses, without any consent or approval rights on the part of the Trustee or the Beneficiary hereunder. Any fees or other amounts payable in connection with the transfer of a Fund Investment by the Trustee to the Grantor or the Beneficiary in connection with a withdrawal by the Grantor or the Beneficiary shall be borne by the Grantor.

(f)	Any Beneficiary Withdrawal Notice provided by the Beneficiary pursuant

to this Section 8(f) shall be accompanied by a notice in the form of Exhibit N-1 attached hereto. Any Grantor Withdrawal Notice provided by the Beneficiary pursuant to this Section 8(f) shall be accompanied by a notice in the form of Exhibit N-2 attached hereto.

(g)	With respect to all Fund Investments, the Trustee shall not be liable or

responsible for any loss to the Trust Accounts, or for any action by the Grantor or by an issuer of such Fund Investments, their administrators, or any other party that suspends, prevents or otherwise limits the purchase, sale, redemption or other liquidation of such Fund Investments (including, without limitation, any action taken by any issuer to suspend or curtail repurchases or redemptions or to make distributions in kind, including distributions of illiquid investments). The Trustee shall have no duty or responsibility to notify the Grantor of any rights or discretionary corporate action or other solicitation relating to any Fund Investment nor shall the Trustee have any responsibility or liability in connection with the exercise of such rights or discretionary actions. The Beneficiary and the Trustee acknowledge and agree that its right to sell, transfer or assign a Fund Investment to a third party may be qualified under the agreement evidencing or affecting the Fund Investment, such as requiring the consent of the general partner.

Section 9. The Income Account

(a)	All payments of interest, dividends and other proceeds and income in

respect of Assets consisting of financial assets (the “Income”) shall be posted and credited by the Trustee, subject to deduction of the Trustee's compensation and expenses as provided in

Section 12(a), in the separate income column of the custody ledger of the Main Trust Account (the “Income Account”) within the Main Trust Account. To the extent the Trustee in its discretion credits any Income to the Main Trust Account before its actual receipt of the same, such crediting shall be provisional and revocable and the Trustee may, upon consent of the Grantor and the Beneficiary, debit the Main Trust Account for this purpose. If there are insufficient funds available in the Main Trust Account to fully reimburse the Trustee, the Grantor, shall upon demand, pay to the Trustee the total amount of any such deficiency.

(b)	The Grantor shall direct any issuer, servicer or any relevant party with

respect to the NFT Assets or other Assets to pay any such Income to the Main Trust Account. The Grantor shall deliver to the Trustee, or cause the Servicer under any Servicing Agreement to deliver to the Trustee in accordance with the applicable Servicing Agreement, for deposit into the Main Trust Account, (i)(A) the net proceeds of any payment received pursuant to the scheduled maturity of an Asset or the pre-payment of an Asset, (B) the net proceeds received from the sale of an Asset to a third party, and (C) the net proceeds received from the liquidation of the property serving as collateral for an Asset, and all (ii) net payments received with respect to an Asset not described in subsection (i) above, including regularly scheduled payments of principal and interest and other amounts accruing with respect to the Assets.

Section 10. Taxes; Right to Vote Assets

(a)	The Grantor shall pay, prior to delinquency, all taxes, assessments and

other charges levied upon the Assets or the Trust Accounts and shall discharge all liens against the Assets and the Trust Accounts; provided, however, that unless and until foreclosure, levy, sale or similar proceedings shall have been commenced, the Grantor need not pay any such tax, assessment or other charge so long as the validity thereof is contested in good faith and by appropriate proceedings and so long as security sufficient to pay such tax, assessment or other charge (and any interest and penalties which may be applicable thereon) has been provided to the Trustee to protect the Beneficiary and the Trustee. In the event that the Grantor shall fail to pay any such tax, assessment or other charge (and shall not be so contesting it) or to discharge any such lien, the Beneficiary may, at its option, but shall not be required to, make any payments necessary to pay such tax, assessment or other charge and/or to discharge such lien, and the Grantor shall, upon demand, reimburse the Beneficiary for the full amount of such payments (together with interest from the date paid to but not including the date reimbursed, at a fluctuating rate per annum equal to the prime rate as announced by the Trustee from time to time). The Trustee shall not be responsible for paying any taxes, assessments or other charges or discharging liens on the Trust Accounts or any of the Assets thereof.

(b)	The Parties intend that the Trust Accounts be classified for United States

federal income tax purposes as a grantor trust (pursuant to sections 671 through 677 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended). Each Party agrees to treat the Trust Accounts as a grantor trust and the Grantor as the owner of the Assets for all United States federal, state and local tax purposes and, thus, any and all income derived from the Assets shall constitute income or gain of the Grantor as owner of such Assets. The Trustee shall not be authorized or empowered to do anything that would cause the Trust Accounts to fail to qualify as a grantor trust or the Grantor to fail to be treated as the owner of the Assets for such tax purposes. The Trustee shall be responsible for any tax reporting, tax withholding or other tax compliance required to be performed by the Trustee on behalf of the Trust Accounts pursuant to Applicable Law. The Grantor shall be responsible for any other tax reporting, tax withholding or tax compliance (including filing of any income tax returns and, if applicable, obtaining tax identification numbers) required on behalf of the Trust Accounts and shall notify the Trustee of the tax identification number of the Trust Accounts.

(c)	Except as otherwise provided herein with respect to Assets that constitute

publicly traded securities, the Trustee will transmit to the Grantor and/or its Investment Manager upon receipt, and will instruct any entities authorized to hold Assets in accordance with the terms hereof to transmit to the Grantor upon receipt, all financial reports, stockholder communications, notices, proxies and proxy soliciting materials received from issuers of Assets, and all information relating to exchange or tender offers received from offerors with respect to such Assets. The Grantor and/or its Investment Manager shall have the full, unqualified right to vote and execute consents and to exercise any and all proprietary rights not inconsistent with this Agreement with respect to any securities or other property forming a part of the Trust Accounts.

Section 11. Additional Rights and Duties of the Trustee

(a) The Trustee shall furnish to the Grantor and the Beneficiary a statement of

all the Assets upon the inception of the Trust Accounts and at the end of each calendar month thereafter (the “Monthly Statement”). The Monthly Statement shall list (i) all of the Assets with CUSIP number (if applicable) and other specific identifying information with respect to any Asset that has no CUSIP number, (ii) any transfers of Assets to or from the Trust Accounts during such calendar month, including all purchases and sales of Assets during such calendar month and (iii) any transfers of Assets to or from either Trust Account during such calendar month. The Monthly Statement shall be given as soon as practicable, but in no event later than ten (10) Business Days after the end of the calendar month most recently concluded. At the Grantor’s or the Beneficiary’s request, the Trustee may provide daily reporting to the Beneficiary, the Grantor or its designated Investment Manager by granting access to the Trustee’s automated data system affording on-line access to Trust Accounts information. The Monthly Statement under this Section 11(a) shall be deemed given by the Trustee to the Grantor and the Beneficiary to the extent that the Grantor and the Beneficiary, as the case may be, had previously requested and had been given access to the Trustee’s automated data system affording on-line access to Trust Accounts information and such information is posted by the Trustee on such system within the relevant period.

(b) Before accepting any asset (other than a NFT Asset) for deposit to the Trust Accounts, the Trustee shall determine that such asset is in such form that the Beneficiary whenever necessary may, or the Trustee upon written direction by the Beneficiary may, negotiate such asset without consent or signature from the Grantor. Before accepting any NFT Asset for deposit to the Trust Accounts, the Trustee shall determine that such asset is in such form that the Trustee upon written direction by the Beneficiary may transfer and assign to the Beneficiary such asset without consent or signature from the Grantor.

(c) The Trustee shall notify the Grantor and the Beneficiary within three (3) Business Days after any deposits to or withdrawals from the Trust Accounts.

(d) All Assets shall be maintained by the Trustee on its books and records at

the Trustee’s offices in the United States. Any Assets received by the Trustee in physical form will be continuously held in a safe place at the Trustee’s offices or those of a Depository within the United States. Assets held in book-entry form (“Book-Entry Assets”) may be held by the Trustee through Depositories and Subcustodians. The Trustee shall identify on its books and records the Book-Entry Assets whether held directly or indirectly through Depositories or Subcustodians.

(e) Assets and Income deposited by the Trustee in a Depository will be held

subject to the rules, terms and conditions of such Depository. Assets and Income thereon held through Subcustodians shall be held subject to the terms and conditions of the Trustee’s agreements with such Subcustodians. Subcustodians may be authorized to hold Assets in central securities depositories or clearing agencies in which such Subcustodians participate. Unless otherwise required by local law or practice or a particular subcustodian agreement, Assets deposited with Subcustodians and Income thereon will be held in a commingled account in the name of the Trustee as custodian or trustee for its customers. Unless applicable law otherwise requires, the Trustee shall hold Assets indirectly through a Subcustodian only if (i) the Assets are not subject to any right, charge, security interest, lien or claim of any kind in favor of such Subcustodian or its creditors, including a receiver or trustee in bankruptcy or similar authority, except for a claim of payment for the safe custody or administration, and (ii) beneficial ownership of the Assets is freely transferable by the Trustee without the payment of money or value other than for safe custody or administration. The Trustee will endeavor, to the extent practicable, to hold securities in the country or other jurisdiction in which the principal trading market for such securities is located, where such Assets are to be presented for cancellation and/or payment and/or registration, or where such Assets are acquired. The Trustee may hold cash credited to the Trust Accounts only in United States legal tender and may deposit such cash with, and effect transactions through, Subcustodians and Depositories. Cash credited to the Income Account may be denominated in any legal currency. In each country in which cash is held, it will be held in non-interest bearing commingled bank accounts in the name of the Trustee (except as otherwise be provided in this Trust Agreement) and the Trustee will record, on its books and records, the Trust Accounts’ entitlement to such cash. Subject to the terms hereof, Assets may be held in the name of a nominee maintained by the Trustee or by any such Depository.

(f) The Trustee shall have no liability whatsoever for the action or inaction of

any Depository or any issuer of securities or for any Losses resulting from the maintenance of Assets with such Depository. The Trustee’s responsibility and liability for Losses incurred by the Grantor and/or the Beneficiary with respect to any Assets or Income held by a Subcustodian (other than any Subcustodian Affiliated with the Trustee) is limited to the failure on the part of the Trustee to exercise reasonable care in the selection or retention of such Subcustodian in light of prevailing settlement and securities handling practices, procedures and controls in the relevant market (the “Required Care”). With respect to any Losses incurred by the Grantor or the Beneficiary as a result of the acts or the failure to act by any Subcustodian (“Operational Losses,” which specifically excludes Losses arising out of or relating to Country Risk Events), the Trustee shall be liable for: (i) Operational Losses with respect to Assets held by the Trustee with or through a Subcustodian Affiliated with the Trustee and (ii) Operational Losses with respect to Assets held by the Trustee with or through a Subcustodian (other than any Subcustodian that is an Affiliate of the Trustee) to the extent that such Operational Losses were directly caused by failure on the part of the Trustee to exercise Required Care. With respect to all other Operational Losses not covered by clauses (i) and (ii) above, the Trustee shall take appropriate action to recover Operational Losses from such Subcustodian, and the Trustee’s sole liability shall be limited to amounts recovered from such Subcustodian (exclusive of costs and expenses incurred by the Trustee). In addition, the Trustee shall be liable for repayment to the Grantor of any cash credited to the Grantor’s or the Trustee’s cash account at the Subcustodian that the Trustee is not able to recover from the Subcustodian (other than as a result of Country Risk Events). In no event shall the Trustee be liable for holding Assets in any particular country or for Losses related to or arising out of such holding, including Losses resulting from nationalization, expropriation or other governmental actions, regulations, exchange or currency controls, devaluations or market conditions affecting transfers, or execution of transactions (“Country Risk Events”).

(g) The Trustee shall accept and may open all mail directed to the Grantor or

the Beneficiary in care of the Trustee. The Trustee shall promptly forward all mail to the addressee whether or not opened.

(h) The Trustee shall keep full and complete records of the administration of

the Trust Accounts. Upon the reasonable written request of the Grantor or the Beneficiary, the Trustee shall promptly permit the Grantor or the Beneficiary, their respective agents, employees or independent auditors to examine, audit, excerpt, transcribe and copy, at their own expense, during the Trustee’s normal business hours any books, documents, papers and records relating to the Trust Accounts or the Assets.

(i) Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Trust Agreement, any

statement, certificate, notice, request, consent, approval or other instrument to be delivered or furnished by the Grantor, any Investment Manager or the Beneficiary shall be sufficiently executed if executed by an Authorized Person or by agents and attorneys-in-fact acting under written authority furnished to the Trustee by the Grantor, any Investment Manager or the Beneficiary, and the Trustee is authorized to follow and rely upon all instructions and directions, including funds transfer instructions, sent by S.W.I.F.T, e-mail, facsimile and other similar secure electronic transmissions containing applicable authorization codes, passwords and/or authentication keys issued by the Trustee, or another method or system specified by the Trustee as available for use in connection with its services hereunder (“Electronic Methods”) (collectively “Instructions”), if the Trustee reasonably believes such Instructions to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or presented by the proper Party or Parties. The Trustee shall not incur any liability to anyone resulting from actions taken by the Trustee in reliance on such Instructions if it acted in good faith and without negligence in so relying. The Trustee shall not incur any liability in executing Instructions (i) from any Authorized Person that is delivered prior to receipt by it of a more current certificate of Authorized Persons removing such prior Authorized Person or (ii) from any agent or attorney-in-fact of the Grantor, any Investment Manager or the Beneficiary that are delivered prior to receipt by it of notice of the revocation of the authority of such agent or attorney-in-fact to act on behalf of such Party.

(i)

Each of the Grantor and the Beneficiary acknowledges and agrees that it is fully informed of the protections and risks associated with the various methods of transmitting Instructions to the Trustee, and that there may be more secure methods of transmitting Instructions than the method selected by the sender. Each of the Grantor and the Beneficiary agrees that the security procedures, if any, to be followed in connection with a transmission of Instructions provide to it a commercially reasonable degree of protection in light of its particular needs and circumstances.

(ii)

Each of the Grantor and the Beneficiary hereby authorizes the Trustee to rely upon and comply with Instructions, including Instructions sent by Electronic Methods by Persons believed by the Trustee acting in good faith and without negligence to be authorized to give Instructions on behalf of the Grantor or the Beneficiary, as the case may be. Except as set forth in Section 11(i)(iii) with respect to funds transfers, the Trustee shall have no duty or obligation to verify or confirm that the Person who sent such Instructions or directions is, in fact, a Person authorized to give Instructions or directions on behalf of the Grantor or the Beneficiary (other than to verify that the signature on a facsimile is the signature of a Person authorized to give Instructions and directions on behalf of such Party), and the Trustee shall have no liability for any Losses incurred or sustained by the Grantor or the Beneficiary as a result of such reliance upon or compliance with such Instructions. Each of the Grantor and the Beneficiary agrees to assume all risks arising out of the use of Electronic Methods to submit Instructions to the Trustee, including the risk of the Trustee acting on unauthorized Instructions, and the risk of interception and misuse by third parties.

(iii)

With respect to any “funds transfer,” as defined in Article 4A of the UCC in connection with any investment, reinvestment or substitution under Section 4 hereof, the following security procedure shall apply: the payment instruction of the Grantor or the Beneficiary, as the case may be, is to include the name and (in the case of a facsimile) signature of the Person initiating the funds transfer request. If the name is listed as an Authorized Person on the relevant account, the Trustee shall confirm the Instructions by telephone call to any Person listed as an Authorized Person on the account, who may be the same Person who initiated the instruction. When calling back, the Trustee shall request from the staff member of the Grantor or the Beneficiary, as the case may be, his or her name. If the name is listed in the Trustee's records as an Authorized Person, the Trustee shall confirm the Instructions with respect to amount, names and numbers of accounts to be charged or credited and other relevant reference information. Each of the Grantor and the Beneficiary agrees to be bound by any payment order issued in its name, whether or not authorized, that is accepted by the Trustee in accordance with the above procedures. When instructed to credit or pay a party by both name and a unique numeric or alpha-numeric identifier (e.g., ABA number or account number), the Trustee, and any other bank participating in the funds transfer, may rely solely on the unique identifier, even if it identifies a party different than the party named. This applies to beneficiaries as well as any intermediary bank. Each of the Grantor and the Beneficiary agrees to be bound by the rules of any funds transfer network used in connection with any payment order accepted by the Trustee hereunder. Notwithstanding any revocation, cancellation or amendment of this authorization, any action taken by the Trustee pursuant to this authorization prior to the Trustee's actual receipt and acknowledgement of a notice of revocation, cancellation or amendment shall not be affected by such notice. Without prejudice to, or limitation of, any other provision of this Trust Agreement, the Grantor or the Beneficiary, as applicable, shall indemnify and hold harmless the Trustee against any and all Losses incurred or sustained by the Trustee as a result of or in connection with the Trustee's reliance upon and compliance with Instructions or directions given by such party by Electronic Methods in compliance with this Section 11(i)(iii), provided, however, that such Losses have not arisen from the negligence, fraud, willful misconduct or lack of good faith of the Trustee.

(j)	The duties and obligations of the Trustee shall only be such as are

specifically set forth in this Agreement, as it may from time to time be amended in accordance with the terms hereof, and no implied duties or obligations shall be read into this Agreement against the Trustee. The Trustee shall be liable only for its own fraud, negligence, willful misconduct or lack of good faith. Subject to the immediately preceding sentence, the Trustee is not liable (i) for acting in accordance with or relying upon any instruction, notice, demand, certificate or document contemplated by and given in accordance with this Agreement from the Grantor or the Beneficiary, (ii) for any Environmental Damages or (iii) for any consequential, punitive or special damages, including lost profits, whether or not foreseeable, even if the Trustee has been advised of the possibility thereof and regardless of the form of action in which such damages are sought.

(k)	No provision of this Trust Agreement shall require the Trustee to take any

action which, in the Trustee’s reasonable judgment, would result in any violation of this Trust Agreement or any provision of Applicable Law. The Trustee may obtain the written advice of outside counsel and shall be fully protected with respect to anything done or omitted by it in good faith in conformity with such advice.

(l)	The Trustee shall not be required to risk or expend its own funds in

performing its obligations under this Trust Agreement. The foregoing sentence shall not apply to the ordinary out-of-pocket expenses referred to in the second sentence of Section 12(a) which are incurred by the Trustee in the normal administration of this Trust Agreement and which are to be reimbursed as provided in Section 12(a), or to ordinary internal overhead expenses which are incurred by the Trustee in the normal administration of this Trust Agreement.

(m)	The Trustee shall not be responsible for the existence, genuineness or

value of any of the Assets (including, without limitation, no responsibility for determining Fair Market Value or Statutory Book Value) or for the validity, perfection, priority or enforceability of the liens or any security interest in any of the Assets, whether impaired by operation of law or by reason of any action or omission to act on its part hereunder, except to the extent such action or omission constitutes negligence, willful misconduct or lack of good faith on the part of the Trustee, for the validity of title to the Assets, for insuring the Assets or for the payment of taxes (other than as set forth in Section 10), charges, assessments or liens upon the Assets.

(n)	The Trustee shall not incur any liability for not performing any act or

fulfilling any duty, obligation or responsibility hereunder to the extent caused by any occurrence beyond the reasonable control of Trustee, including any act or provision of any present or future law or regulation or governmental authority, any act of God or war or terrorism, accidents, labor disputes, loss or malfunction of utilities or computer software or hardware, or the unavailability of the Federal Reserve Bank wire or other wire or communication facility. The Trustee shall use reasonable efforts to resume performance as promptly as practicable under the circumstances and agrees to maintain throughout the term of this Agreement, such contingency plans as it reasonably believes to be necessary and appropriate to recover its operations from the occurrence of a disaster and which are reasonably designed to comply with applicable law and regulations and the requirements of its regulators.

(o)	The Trustee hereby waives any right of counterclaim, banker’s lien, liens

or perfection rights with respect to the Assets and the Trust Accounts other than the Income Account.

(p)

From time to time, at the written order and direction of the Grantor or its Investment Manager, the Trustee shall utilize cash in the Main Trust Account to settle a purchase of Eligible Assets consisting of securities by the Grantor. For the purpose of settling securities and foreign exchange transactions, the Grantor shall provide the Trustee with sufficient immediately available funds by such time and date as is required to settle such securities and foreign exchange transactions in the country of settlement and in the currency to be used to settle such transaction. Without prejudice to any other provisions herein, in the event the Main Trust Account does not have sufficient funds in the currency required to settle the transaction, the

Grantor shall deliver to the Trustee immediately available funds in an amount sufficient to purchase the currency necessary to settle such securities and foreign exchange transactions. The Trustee, however, shall have no obligation to advance funds for the settlement of such transaction. In connection with the Main Trust Account, the Trustee is authorized to enter into spot or forward foreign exchange transactions (“FX Transactions”) with the Grantor and may provide such foreign exchange services to the Grantor through the Trustee’s subsidiaries or Affiliates, through Subcustodians or as may otherwise be agreed upon by the Grantor. Such contracts may be entered into with the Trustee, any Subcustodian or any Affiliate or subsidiary thereof acting as principal or otherwise through customary banking channels and they may retain any profits from such FX Transactions. Written instructions, including standing instructions, may be issued with respect to such contracts, but the Trustee may establish rules or limitations concerning any foreign exchange facility made available to the Grantor. In all cases in which the Trustee, Subcustodian or their respective subsidiaries or Affiliates enter into FX Transactions relating to the Main Trust Account, the terms and conditions of such foreign exchange contracts shall apply to such transaction. The Trustee or, as the case may be, the relevant Affiliate through which currency is converted, shall act as principal for its own account and not as agent, advisor, broker or fiduciary on behalf of any other person and earns revenue, including, without limitation, transaction spreads and sales margin, that it will retain for its own account. The revenue is based on, among other things, the difference between the exchange rate assigned to the currency conversion made under this Agreement and the rate that the Trustee or any Affiliate receives when buying or selling foreign currency for its own account. Neither the Trustee nor any Subcustodian shall be liable for any fluctuations or changes in foreign exchange rates, which shall be the sole risk and liability of the Grantor or shall be required to substitute one currency for any other currency in a cash account. The Trustee makes no representation that the exchange rate used or obtained in any currency conversion under this Agreement will be the most favorable rate that could be obtained at the time or as to the method by which that rate will be determined.

Section 12. The Trustee’s Compensation, Expenses and Indemnification

(a)	The Grantor shall pay the Trustee, as compensation for its services under

this Trust Agreement, a fee computed at rates as agreed between the Grantor and the Trustee. The Grantor shall pay or reimburse the Trustee for all of the Trustee’s reasonable expenses and disbursements in connection with its duties under this Trust Agreement (including reasonable fees and expenses of any outside counsel incurred by the Trustee for legal services deemed reasonably necessary by the Trustee as a result of the Trustee’s so acting) except any such expense or disbursement as may arise from the Trustee’s negligence, willful misconduct, or lack of good faith; provided, however, that no such costs, fees or expenses shall be paid out of the Assets, but the Trustee shall be entitled to deduct its due and unpaid compensation and expenses from payments of dividends, interest and other income in respect of the Assets and deposited into the Income Account as provided in Section 9 of this Trust Agreement.

(b)	Grantor hereby agrees to indemnify the Trustee and to hold it harmless

from and against any and all losses, costs, expenses, damages, liabilities or claims including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel and accountants (“Losses”) or Environmental Damages, which the Trustee may sustain or incur or which may be asserted against the Trustee by reason of or as a result of any action taken or omitted by the Trustee in connection with performing pursuant to this Agreement or incurred by the Trustee in a successful defense of claims by the Grantor and/or the Beneficiary, including but not limited to any breach or default under any of the representations, warranties or covenants made in any subscription documentation with any issuer of Fund Investments, Losses incurred by the Trustee in connection with its successful defense, in whole or part, of any claim of negligence, willful misconduct or lack of good faith on its part or Losses arising out of or in connection with the status of the Trustee and its nominee as the holder of record of Assets, except those Losses arising out of the Trustee's or any of its Affiliates’ negligence, willful misconduct or lack of good faith. The Grantor hereby acknowledges that the foregoing indemnities and the Grantor payment and reimbursement obligations under this Section 12 shall survive the resignation or discharge of the Trustee or the termination of this Trust Agreement and hereby grants the Trustee a lien, right of set off and security interest in the funds in the Income Account for the payment of any claim for compensation, reimbursement or indemnity hereunder.

(c)	The Beneficiary hereby agrees to indemnify the Trustee for, and hold it

harmless against, any Losses which are sustained by the Trustee by reason of or as a result of any action taken or omitted by the Trustee pursuant to the Beneficiary’s Instructions or notices required or permitted to be given to the Trustee by the Beneficiary hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Beneficiary shall not indemnify the Trustee for those Losses caused by the Trustee’s or any of its Affiliates’ negligence, willful misconduct or lack of good faith. This indemnity shall be a continuing obligation of the Beneficiary and its successors and assigns, notwithstanding the termination of this Trust Agreement.

(d)	Except as specifically provided in Section 9 regarding the Income Account,

no Assets shall be withdrawn from the Trust Accounts or used in any manner for paying compensation to, or reimbursement or indemnification of, the Trustee.

Section 13. Resignation of the Trustee

(a)	The Trustee may resign at any time by giving not less than ninety (90)

days’ written notice thereof to the Beneficiary and to the Grantor. The Grantor and the Beneficiary jointly also may remove the Trustee at any time, without assigning any reason therefor, on ninety (90) days’ prior written notice thereof to the Trustee. Such resignation or removal shall become effective on the acceptance of appointment by a successor Trustee and the transfer to such successor Trustee of all the Assets in accordance with Section 13(b).

(b)	Upon receipt of the Trustee’s notice of resignation or notice to the Trustee

of removal, the Grantor and the Beneficiary shall promptly appoint a successor trustee. Any successor trustee shall be a Qualified U.S. Financial Institution. If a successor trustee has not accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the notice of resignation or removal, the Trustee may, in its sole discretion, apply at the expense of the Grantor to a court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor trustee or for other appropriate relief. The costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by the Trustee in connection with such proceeding shall be paid by, and be deemed an obligation of, the Grantor. Upon the acceptance of the appointment as trustee hereunder by a successor trustee and the transfer to such successor Trustee of all the Assets, the resignation or removal of the Trustee shall become effective. Thereupon, such successor trustee shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the Trustee, and the Trustee shall be discharged from any future duties and obligations under this Agreement, but the Trustee shall continue after its resignation or removal to be entitled to the benefits of the indemnities provided herein for a Trustee for any actions taken as a Trustee from the date of this Agreement until the date of discharge.

Section 14. Triggering Event Notice

(a)

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary but subject to Section 15 (which shall supersede this Section 14 in the event the Beneficiary has delivered to the Trustee a Recapture Event Notice), in the event that the Beneficiary delivers a written certification substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit I-1 (a “Triggering Event Notice”) to the Grantor and the Trustee of the occurrence of a Triggering Event (but in the absence of a Recapture Event) under the Reinsurance Agreement, upon receipt of such certification by the Trustee and a reasonable period of time to put it into effect, (x) any funds withheld by the

Beneficiary pursuant to Section 3.2 of the Reinsurance Agreement shall be credited against the

Section 24. Interpretation

For purposes of this Agreement, the words “hereof,” “herein,” “hereby” and other

words of similar import refer to this Agreement as a whole unless otherwise indicated. Whenever the singular is used herein, the same shall include the plural, and whenever the plural is used herein, the same shall include the singular, where appropriate. The term “including” means “including but not limited to.” The term “will” shall be construed to have the same meaning and effect as the word “shall.” Whenever used in this Agreement, the masculine gender shall include the feminine and neutral genders. All references herein to Articles, Sections, Subsections, Paragraphs and Exhibits shall be deemed references to Articles and Sections and Subsections and Paragraphs of, and Exhibits to, this Agreement unless the context shall otherwise require. Any reference herein to any statute, rule or regulation, or any section thereof, shall, unless otherwise expressly provided, be a reference to such statute, rule, regulation or section as amended, modified, supplemented or replaced (including any successor section) (and, in the case of statutes, includes any rules and regulations promulgated under said statutes) and in effect from time to time. The word “or” shall not be exclusive except where the context otherwise requires. All terms defined in this Agreement shall have the defined meaning when used in any Exhibit, Schedule, certificate or other documents attached hereto or made or delivered pursuant hereto unless otherwise defined therein. The Parties intend that the terms of this Agreement shall, to the fullest extent possible, be interpreted and applied consistently with the terms of the Reinsurance Agreement. This Agreement shall be interpreted and enforced in accordance with the provisions hereof without the aid of any canon, custom or rule of law requiring or suggesting constitution against the Party causing the drafting of the provision in question.

Section 25. Headings

The table of contents and headings in this Agreement are for reference only, and

shall not affect the interpretation of this Agreement.

Section 26. Waivers and Amendments

This Agreement may be amended or a provision hereof waived only by a written

instrument signed by each of the Parties in the case of an amendment, or, in the case of a waiver, by the Party entitled to make such a waiver. No delay on the part of any Party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any waiver on the part of any Party of any right, power or privilege, nor any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or privilege, preclude any further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other such right, power or privilege.

Section 27. Severability

Whenever possible, each provision or portion of any provision of this Agreement

will be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under Applicable Law, but if any provision or portion of any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any Applicable Law in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability will not affect any other provision or portion of any provision in such jurisdiction, and this Agreement will be reformed, construed and enforced in such jurisdiction as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision or portion of any provision had never been contained herein.

Section 28. Counterparts

This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, all of which shall be considered

one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each of the Parties and delivered to the other Parties.

Section 29. Shareholder Communications Act; Required Disclosure

With respect to securities issued in the United States, the Shareholders Communications Act of 1985 (the “Act”) requires the Trustee to disclose to the issuers, upon their request, the name, address and securities position of its customers who are (a) the “beneficial owners” (as defined in the Act) of the issuer’s securities, if the beneficial owner does not object to such disclosure, or (b) acting as a “respondent bank” (as defined in the Act) with respect to the securities. (Under the Act, “respondent banks” do not have the option of objecting to such disclosure upon the issuers’ request.) The Act defines a “beneficial owner” as any person who has, or shares, the power to vote a security (pursuant to an agreement or otherwise), or who directs the voting of a security. The Act defines a “respondent bank” as any bank, association or other entity that exercises fiduciary powers which holds securities on behalf of beneficial owners and deposits such securities for safekeeping with a bank, such as the Trustee. Under the Act, the Grantor is either the “beneficial owner” or a “respondent bank.”

[ ] the Grantor is the “beneficial owner,” as defined in the Act, of the securities to be held by the Trustee hereunder.

[ ] the Grantor is not the beneficial owner of the securities to be held by the Trustee, but is acting as a “respondent bank,” as defined in the Act, with respect to the securities to be held by the Trustee hereunder.

IF NO BOX IS CHECKED, THE TRUSTEE SHALL ASSUME THAT THE GRANTOR IS THE BENEFICIAL OWNER OF THE SECURITIES.

For beneficial owners of the securities only: [ ] the Grantor objects [ ] the Grantor does not object to the disclosure of its name, address and securities position to any issuer which requests such information pursuant to the Act for the specific purpose of direct communications between such issuer and the Grantor.

IF NO BOX IS CHECKED, THE TRUSTEE SHALL RELEASE SUCH INFORMATION UNTIL IT RECEIVES A CONTRARY WRITTEN INSTRUCTION FROM THE GRANTOR.

With respect to securities issued outside of the United States, information shall be released to issuers only if required by law or regulation of the particular country in which the securities are located. The Grantor agrees to disseminate in a timely manner any proxies or requests for voting instructions, other proxy soliciting material, information statements, or annual reports that it receives to any other beneficial owners.

Section 30. USA Patriot Act

The Grantor and the Beneficiary each hereby acknowledges that the Trustee is

subject to federal laws, including the Customer Identification Program (“CIP”) requirements under the USA PATRIOT Act and its implementing regulations, pursuant to which the Trustee must obtain, verify and record information that allows the Trustee to identify the Grantor and the Beneficiary. Accordingly, prior to opening the Trust Accounts hereunder, the Trustee will ask the Grantor and the Beneficiary to provide certain information, including the Grantor’s and the Beneficiary’s name, physical address, tax identification number and other information that will help the Trustee to identify and verify the Grantor’s and the Beneficiary’s identity such as organizational documents, certificate of good standing, license to do business or other pertinent identifying information. Each of the Grantor and the Beneficiary agrees that the Trustee cannot open the Trust Accounts hereunder unless and until the Trustee verifies the Grantor’s and the Beneficiary’s identity in accordance with the Trustee’s CIP.

Section 31. Information Sharing

The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation is a global financial organization that

operates in and provides services and products to clients through its affiliates and subsidiaries located in multiple jurisdictions (the “BNY Mellon Group”). The BNY Mellon Group may (i) centralize in one or more Affiliates and subsidiaries certain activities (the “Centralized Functions”), including audit, accounting, administration, risk management, legal, compliance, sales, product communication, relationship management, and the compilation and analysis of information and data regarding Grantor and Beneficiary (which, for purposes of this provision, includes the name and business contact information for the Grantor and Beneficiary's employees and representatives) and the accounts established pursuant to this Trust Agreement (“Grantor and Beneficiary Information”) and (ii) use third-party service providers to store, maintain and process Grantor and Beneficiary Information (“Outsourced Functions”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Trust Agreement and solely in connection with the Centralized Functions and/or Outsourced Functions, Grantor and Beneficiary consent to the disclosure of, and authorize the Trustee to disclose, Grantor and Beneficiary Information to (i) other members of the BNY Mellon Group (and their respective officers, directors and employees) and to (ii) third-party service providers, including, without limitation, Subcustodians (but solely in connection with Outsourced Functions) who are required to maintain the confidentiality of Grantor and Beneficiary Information. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to prevent the Trustee from including certain information related to securities holdings and securities transactions in certain internally compiled blind or aggregated data which is intended to be used solely for internal purposes; provided that such information is used without any attribution to Grantor or Beneficiary, either directly or indirectly by implication. Grantor and Beneficiary represent that Grantor and Beneficiary are authorized to consent to the foregoing and that the disclosure of Grantor and Beneficiary Information in connection with the Centralized Functions and/or Outsourced Functions does not violate any relevant data protection legislation. Grantor and Beneficiary also consent to the disclosure of Grantor and Beneficiary Information to governmental and regulatory authorities in jurisdictions where the BNY Mellon Group operates and otherwise as required by law.

SECURITY LIFE OF DENVER INSURANCE COMPANY

DERIVATIVE USE PLAN

I. INTRODUCTION.

The purpose of this Derivative Use Plan (this “Plan”) is to set forth the guidelines

and parameters for the use of derivative transactions by Security Life of Denver Insurance Company, a Colorado-domiciled life insurance company (the “Company”). As contemplated in this Plan, the Company’s use of derivative transactions shall be in conformance with the Company’s general philosophy of managing its investments and overall balance sheet in a prudent manner, with the goals of preserving the capital and financial strength of the Company, while seeking appropriate returns on its investments and operations. In that regard, the Company’s use of derivative transactions under this Plan is expected to help manage and reduce risks associated with the Company’s investments, insurance obligations and general operations, as well as to reduce transaction costs and enhance returns with respect to its investments.

The Company recognizes that while derivative transactions are useful risk and

portfolio management tools, as with any investment practice, the use of derivative transactions exposes the Company to certain risks. Nevertheless, with proper use and careful management, such derivative transactions can be utilized safely, as part of the overall investment and risk management strategy of the Company. Therefore, in order to ensure the proper use of derivative transactions and to mitigate the risks associated with such use, this Plan establishes strict internal controls with respect to the use of derivative transactions, including parameters with regard to the use of derivative transactions and procedures for the determination of proper risk tolerance levels. Specifically, this Plan: (i) sets forth and identifies the categories and types of derivative instruments and strategies that the Company is authorized to use; (ii) states the qualitative and quantitative parameters and limits imposed on such instruments and strategies; and (iii) establishes internal control procedures to ensure compliance with such parameters and limits and to mitigate the risks associated with the Company’s use of derivatives.

The Company intends this Plan to comply with the requirements of Colorado and New York insurance laws and regulations relating to the use of derivative instruments. In that regard, this Plan should be interpreted to be consistent with and within the bounds of such laws and regulations.

II. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND STRATEGIES.

A. Derivative Instruments.

Derivative instruments and transactions can be structured in numerous forms with

various characteristics. For the purposes of this Plan, the Company considers derivative instrument to mean:

An agreement, option, instrument or a series or combination thereof:

(a)	To make or take delivery of, or assume or relinquish, a specified amount of one or more underlying interests,³ or to make a cash settlement in lieu thereof; or

(b)	That has a price, performance, value or cash flow based primarily upon the actual or expected price, level, performance, value or cash flow of one or more underlying interests.

Derivative instruments consist of options, warrants, caps, floors, collars, swaps, swaptions, forwards and futures or any series or combination thereof, which generally are defined as follows:

“Option” means an agreement giving the buyer the right to buy or receive (a “call option”), sell or deliver (a “put option”), enter into, extend or terminate or effect a cash settlement based on the actual or expected price, level, performance or value of one or more underlying interests.

“Warrant” means an instrument that gives the holder the right to purchase an underlying financial instrument at a given price and time or at a series of prices and times outlined in the warrant agreement. Warrants may be issued alone or in connection with the sale of other securities, for example, as part of a merger or recapitalization agreement, or to facilitate divestiture of the securities of another business entity.

“Cap” means an agreement obligating the seller to make payments to the buyer with each payment based on the amount by which a reference price or level or the performance or value of one or more underlying interests exceeds a predetermined number, sometimes called the strike rate or strike price.

“Floor” means an agreement obligating the seller to make payments to the buyer in which each payment is based on the amount by which a predetermined number, sometimes called the floor rate or price, exceeds a reference price, a level, or the performance or value of one or more underlying interests.

“Collar” means an agreement to receive payments as the buyer of an option, cap or floor and to make payments as the seller of a different option, cap or floor.

“Swap” means an agreement to exchange or to net payments at one or more times based on the actual or expected price, level, performance or value of one or more underlying interests.

“Swaption” means an option to purchase or sell a swap at a given price and time or at a series of prices and times. A swaption does not mean a swap with an embedded option.

“Forward” means an agreement (other than a future) to make or take delivery of, or effect a cash settlement based on the actual or expected price, level, performance or value of, one or more underlying interests, but shall not mean or include spot transactions effected within customary settlement periods, when-issued purchases, or other similar cash market transactions.

“Future” means an agreement, traded on a futures exchange, to make or take delivery of, or effect a cash settlement based on the actual or expected price, level, performance or value of, one or more underlying interests.

B.	Exchange Traded versus Over-the-Counter Transactions.

Derivative transactions may be traded through an exchange, or through the more

specialized over-the-counter (“OTC”) market. While derivative transactions traded through exchanges provide ease of access to a ready market, a higher degree of liquidity and the mitigation or elimination of counterparty credit risk, exchanges require uniformity of terms among transactions and, therefore, may not always accomplish the underlying investment objective. In contrast, while OTC derivative transactions may be less liquid and expose the parties to counterparty credit risk, such transactions allow counterparties to structure more customized transactions to accomplish more closely the objective for entering into the derivative transaction. In addition, the wide use of standardized documentation, such as the forms of Master Agreements published by the International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc.

(“ISDA”), has created a certain degree of uniformity and standardization in OTC transactions. The characteristics of an exchange-traded versus OTC derivative transaction, including underlying counterparty credit risk exposure shall be evaluated before engaging in a derivative transaction.

C.	Authorized Uses and Strategies.

Derivative instruments can be used in conjunction with various strategies to effect

a desired purpose or objective; however, as a general rule, derivative transactions are primarily based on three basic strategies: hedging, income generation and replication. The use of derivative transactions by the Company for purely speculative purposes (i.e., outside the realm of income generation, hedging and replication) is prohibited.

1. Derivative Transactions for Asset/Liability Management Purposes

(i.e., Hedging).

The use of hedging transactions² is an important and essential part of the Company’s overall risk management program. In the course of the Company’s operations it may be advantageous to use various derivative instruments with the objective of hedging market risks. Market risks, as described in Section III. A. of this plan, include interest rate risk, credit risk, equity market risk, currency risk, liquidity risk and volatility risk. These risks can have an adverse impact on the value, yield, price, cash flow, earnings, quantity or other measure related to the Company’s assets and liabilities. As a result, and as described in Section V. A. 1., the Board of Directors of the Company may approve strategies that use derivatives to:

Hedge the impact of market risks on specific assets, groups of assets, portfolios, or its assets in aggregate with respect to its investment portfolio.

Hedge the impact of market risks with respect to specific products the Company issued or will issue or liabilities the company has or will incur, as well as hedge the impact of market risks with respect to product or liability groups or the Company’s liabilities in aggregate.

Hedge or modify anticipated asset or liability cash flows.

Hedge the risks related to embedded derivatives in the products the Company has or will issue or in the assets the Company holds or anticipates holding.

Hedge mismatches between the Company’s asset and liability cash flows or potential changes in value.

Offset transactions previously entered into that are no longer necessary to manage risk.

² A “Hedging transaction” is defined as a derivative transaction which is entered into and maintained to reduce:

(a)	The risk of a change in the value, yield, price, cash flow, or quantity of assets or liabilities that the insurer has acquired or incurred or anticipates acquiring or incurring; or

(b)	The currency exchange rate risk or the degree of exposure as to assets or liabilities that the insurer has acquired or incurred or anticipates acquiring or incurring.

Given the nature and purpose of a hedging transaction, the potential exposure associated with such transaction is generally limited. An “effective hedge” for the purposes of this document is a hedging transaction where any change in value, yield, price, cash flow or quantity of an asset, liability or action should be offset, entirely or in part, by the derivative transaction intended to hedge such asset, liability or activity. In that regard, a crucial element of the Company maintaining a successful hedging program using derivative transactions is the Company’s implementation of appropriate procedures and guidelines to evaluate the intended effectiveness or efficacy of specific hedging transactions.

2.	Derivative Transactions for Income Generation Purposes.

The Company’s use of derivative transactions may also include income

generation transactions. Income generation transactions allow the user to earn income through the writing or sale of derivatives, such as calls, puts, collars and caps. As provided in Section IV. B. 1. of this Plan, the Company may enter into income generation transactions only through the sale of call options on securities, provided that the insurer holds, or can immediately acquire through the exercise of options, warrants or conversion rights already owned, the underlying securities during the entire period the option is outstanding (i.e., covered options).

3.	Replication Transactions.

Consistent with the requirements of the Securities Valuation Office (“SVO”) of

the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (“NAIC”), a “Replication transaction” is defined as a derivative transaction or combination of derivative transactions effected either separately or in conjunction with cash market investments included in the insurer's investment portfolio in order to replicate the investment characteristic of another authorized transaction, investment or instrument and/or operate as a substitute for cash market transactions. In certain circumstances, replication transactions can create an otherwise permissible asset, asset class or group of assets, or provide a more cost-effective means of investing in a given asset, asset class or group of assets. Some replication transactions may replicate only certain desired characteristics of an asset, asset class or group of assets, rather than replicate all of an asset’s characteristics. The Company shall structure its replication transactions properly so that the potential exposure with respect to a replication transaction is directly related to the risks associated with the asset being replicated.

Subject to applicable law, the Company may use credit default swaps, total return

swaps and any other derivative instruments authorized in Section III C. hereof to replicate assets in which the Company could otherwise make direct investments for the purpose of: (i) customizing risk exposures which would either not be obtainable with direct investments or would only be obtainable at a greater cost; (ii) gaining exposure to markets that it may not be able to access directly as cost effectively; or (iii) otherwise, where replication transactions offer more advantageous risk/reward trade-offs to the Company than direct investments in the cash market.

D. Valuation of Derivative Transactions.

In order to properly assess the effectiveness of the Company’s derivative

transactions, the Reporting Groups (described in Article V. A. 5 hereof) of ING Investment Management LLC (“IIM”), an investment management company that is affiliated with the Company and that has been retained as the investment manager for the Company’s general account investment portfolio, on behalf of the Company, shall determine the value (i.e., mark-tomarket) of the Company’s derivative transactions through the use of both internal and external valuation processes. The Reporting Groups are the groups responsible for monitoring, testing, reporting on, valuing and settling the Company’s derivative transactions.

Initial valuation of a derivative transaction shall be determined by the market

price of such derivative transactions. Substantially all derivative transactions, to the extent practicable, are thereafter valued daily by the Operations section of the Reporting Groups (“Operations Group”) using Debt and Derivatives, or such other system as the Company and IIM determine, in conjunction with their review of valuations of the Company’s risk measurement systems is a more effective tool for valuing derivative transactions. In addition, IIM compares sample valuations of the Company’s derivative transactions monthly with the valuation results from independent valuation tools, such as Bloomberg, as maintained by the Reporting Groups. Furthermore, the Operations Group periodically, as necessary, obtains valuations of the Company’s derivative transactions externally from broker dealers, if any of the Reporting Groups determine that the Company’s current valuation models are inadequate for a particular investment. In addition, for each new derivative transaction the Company enters into, one of the Reporting Groups will test the pricing capabilities of the current valuation systems. If such Reporting Group determines that the internal valuation system cannot accurately value the applicable derivative transaction, Operations Group will obtain external valuations of such derivative transaction from broker/dealers until IIM has implemented a proper valuation tool for such derivative transaction.

E. Risks Inherent in Derivative Transactions.

As with any investment, the use of derivative transactions entails certain risks. The following is a brief description of the most significant risks generally associated with derivative transactions. All such risks shall be considered prior to engaging in a particular derivative transaction.

1. Basis Risk.

The effectiveness of any hedging strategy is dependent upon the matching of the

risks being hedged with the instruments and strategies used to hedge such risks, creating a corresponding offsetting position. “Basis risk” is defined as the exposure to loss from imperfectly matched offsetting positions in related but not identical markets. Basis risk can arise when a hedging transaction has been imperfectly matched or correlated to the subject risk exposure. The Company will structure and maintain such hedging transactions within acceptable levels of basis risk.

Prior to entering into a hedging transaction, the Derivatives Desk (which is

responsible for authorizing and executing derivative transactions) as well as the other applicable Investment Groups of IIM (“Investment Groups”) (which are responsible for advising the Derivatives Desk with respect to derivative transactions) shall confirm that the transaction is within Board-approved hedging parameters (see Section III. B. below for a more detailed discussion of hedge effectiveness). Once the Company has entered into the hedging transaction, the Asset Liability Committee of the applicable Business Unit (the “BU ALC,” described in detail in Article V. A. 3 hereof), Risk Management and/or other Reporting Groups, such as the Proprietary Client Finance Reporting Group (“Client Finance”), shall monitor the transaction on an ongoing basis to confirm that the derivative transaction continues to effectively hedge the targeted risk within the proscribed Hedge Effectiveness Parameters (defined under Section III. B. below). The frequency by which the applicable Reporting Groups shall monitor derivative transactions for basis risk depends on the type and purpose of the derivative transaction; and such frequency shall be determined in accordance with the risk management process, but in no event less than quarterly. The Reporting Groups currently use the aforementioned hedge effectiveness tests set forth in Article III. B. hereof to calculate and monitor basis risk.

The applicable Reporting Groups shall report any hedging transaction not within

the acceptable Hedge Effectiveness Parameters to the Derivative Group Head (as described in Section V. A. 4) and, the BU ALC. To the extent that a hedging transaction is not within acceptable risk tolerance levels, the Derivatives Desk, if possible, will adjust the hedging transaction by modifying the transaction or entering into additional transactions to effect the desired objective. If the hedging transaction cannot be appropriately modified to reduce the excessive basis risk, such transaction may be terminated or closed, in an orderly, but timely fashion.

2. Counterparty Exposure Risk.

Counterparty exposure risk relates to the risk of loss resulting from a default by a

counterparty of its obligations under a derivative transaction. Where a derivative transaction is entered into through a qualified exchange, the counterparty exposure risk is limited by the financial stability of the exchange and its clearing system. Conversely, if a derivative transaction is an OTC Derivative Instrument,⁴ the counterparty exposure risk will depend largely upon the creditworthiness of the counterparty to the transaction.

“Counterparty exposure amount” is defined as follows:

The net amount of credit risk attributable to an OTC Derivative Instrument entered into with a business entity other than a national securities exchange or board of trade regulated under the laws of the United States:

(1)	For an OTC Derivative Instrument not entered into under or subject to a written Master Agreement⁵ which provides for netting of payments owed by the respective parties:

(i)	the market value of the OTC Derivative Instrument if the liquidation of the derivative instrument would result in a final cash payment to the insurer; or

(ii)	zero if the liquidation of the derivative instrument would not result in a final cash payment to the insurer.

(2)

For OTC Derivative Instruments entered into under or subject to a written Master Agreement which provides for netting of payments owed by the respective parties, and the domiciliary jurisdiction of the counterparty is either within the United States or if not within the United States, within a foreign (not United States) jurisdiction deemed approved by the superintendent as eligible for netting, the greater of zero or the net sum payable to the insurer in connection with all OTC Derivative Instruments subject to the written Master Agreement upon their liquidation in the event of default by the counterparty under the Master Agreement (assuming no conditions precedent to the obligations of the counterparty to make such a payment and assuming no setoff of amounts payable under any other instrument or agreement).

(3)

For the purposes of this definition, market value or the net sum payable, as the case may be, shall be determined at the end of the most recent quarter of the insurer's fiscal year and will be reduced by the market value of acceptable collateral held by the insurer or a custodian on the insurer's behalf.

All counterparty exposure amounts are subject to limitations set forth in Section IV. B. 2. of this Plan.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall only accept credit risk from a

non-qualified counterparty, with whom it transacts an OTC Derivative Instrument, rated below A- in excess of $10,000,000 if such credit risk is within prescribed exposure limits and fully collateralized; provided, however, the Company may accept uncollateralized credit risk in excess of $10,000,000 from a non-qualified counterparty rated below A-, provided such agreement is approved by the Board. In determining whether the Company should accept uncollateralized credit risk in excess of $10,000,000, the Board will consider (i) IIM’s assessment of the credit risk, (ii) the type of derivative transaction and (iii) the liquidity of the derivative transaction. In addition to the foregoing, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if the credit rating of the non-qualified counterparty were to fall below BBB, or its equivalent rating, based on the highest rating from a nationally recognized statistical rating organization, then the Derivatives Desk shall work expeditiously to either exit outstanding transactions with that non-qualified counterparty or acquire appropriate collateral, unless such action would be disadvantageous to the Company.

The collateral received or pledged by the Company in connection with exchange-

traded derivative transactions and OTC derivative transactions shall be valued on a daily basis by the Operations Group with oversight from IIM Risk Management. The Operations Group shall also be responsible for applying the terms of the applicable CSA or other collateral agreement including reviewing counterparty exposure against applicable collateral Thresholds and Minimum Transfer Amounts; and for determining whether the Company should issue a request for collateral to, or deliver collateral in response to a request for collateral from, the counterparty. Disputes with respect to collateral will be handled immediately by (i) reviewing our processes to determine the presence of any operational or system errors, (ii) prompt communication with our derivatives counterparties or clearing member to quickly resolve any collateral deficiency or excess and avoid any potential default or early termination of positions as a result thereof, and (iii) consulting with the Derivatives Desk on any material collateral disputes.

Prior to entering into any derivative transaction, IIM shall determine that such

derivative transaction would not cause the Company to exceed any limitations set forth in applicable law or the counterparty risk guidelines established by the Board. Thereafter, counterparty exposure is calculated and monitored by the applicable Reporting Groups on a daily basis. Operations Group shall, to the extent practicable, daily mark-to-market substantially all derivative transactions. Client Finance shall calculate daily the amount of outstanding counterparty exposure with respect to all open derivative transaction positions in accordance with applicable law and/or NAIC Accounting Practices and Procedures Manual, as appropriate.

3.	Liquidity Risk.

The use of derivative transactions by the Company will be conducted with

consideration of such transaction’s effect on the overall liquidity of the Company’s investment portfolio. In that regard, prior to entering into a derivative transaction the Derivatives Desk in consultation with the other Investment Groups will analyze the potential impact of a specific derivative transaction on the overall liquidity of the Company’s investment portfolio. Factors included in this consideration are the type, notional amount, maturity, margin requirements, and bid/ask spread of the derivative, as well as the number of counterparties from which bids for the derivative can be obtained, and the volume and frequency in which similar derivatives are traded in the market. As a general rule, the Company anticipates minimal liquidity risk associated with its use of derivative transactions. In identifying and selecting dealer counterparties for derivative transactions, the Derivatives Desk will attempt to engage in derivative transactions with those dealer counterparties that have the ability and the financial capacity to make an active market (to the extent that it is possible to create such an active market) in the derivative transactions. In making this determination, the Derivatives Desk will consider (i) the counterparties’ expertise and experience, (ii) the counterparties’ trading volume and frequency of trades (on a relative and absolute basis) and (iii) the counterparties’ credit rating and financial strength. In all cases, when entering into a derivative transaction, the Derivatives Desk shall comply with the counterparty risk guidelines established by the Board.

4.	Systemic Risk.

Systemic risk is the risk that a major failure or disruption in one institution or

segment of the market will affect other institutions, leading ultimately to a breakdown of the financial system. The use of derivative transactions and the potential failures within the derivative markets can contribute to this overall systemic risk. Systemic risk, however, is not specific to the derivative markets, and failures and disruptions in other institutions and markets can likewise affect and undermine the derivative market. Systemic failure is generally addressed by regulatory policies which attempt to lessen the risk of a major institutional failure and policies and procedures which attempt to maintain stability and confidence in the overall financial system in the face of a failure in any one institution or market. As part of its counterparty risk guidelines, the Company attempts to diversify its use of counterparties and markets, which also helps to lower systemic risk.

5.	Operational Risk.

“Operational risk” is defined as the risk of loss occurring as a result of inadequate

systems and controls, human error or mismanagement. To reduce its operational risks related to the use of derivatives, the Company shall at all times enforce its internal control procedures set forth herein, which provide multiple levels of oversight, appropriate checks and balances and periodic audits and reviews of specific transactions and the system (see Section V of this Plan). Furthermore, the Company shall utilize the knowledge of suitably qualified individuals who have knowledge and experience in the use of derivatives.

6.	Option Risk.

“Option risk” is defined as the exposure to loss due to the uncertainty of cash

flows resulting from another party having the right but not the obligation to alter the level and/or timing of cash flows of an asset, liability or off-balance sheet instrument. The ability of a third party to affect the cash flows of the Company through the exercise of an option or other right written by the Company may pose risks for the Company. Option risks may exist with respect to options and other derivative instruments written by the Company.

F. Maturity

Although no maximum term will be imposed with respect to derivative

transactions, the Company will consider carefully the following factors when determining the maturity of each derivative transaction: (i) maturity of the liability or asset being hedged or the maturity of the asset being replicated; (ii) the type of derivative; (iii) the credit rating of the counterparty with whom the transaction is concluded; and (iv) the specific terms of the Master Agreement with such counterparty.

III. THE COMPANY’S RISK PROFILE AND USE OF DERIVATIVES.

A. Use of Derivatives to Mitigate Risk.

The use of derivative transactions by the Company will be a part of its overall risk

management strategy. In this regard, the Company may, where appropriate, use derivative transactions to address risks found in its investment portfolio and as a tool to manage and hedge certain existing and expected future assets, liabilities, earnings and cash flows. The Company shall conduct its derivative activities under this Plan in such a manner as to ensure that neither its liquidity nor its statutory financial position will be jeopardized. The following provides a description of the risks affecting the Company, along with a description of the Company’s possible use of derivatives to address such risks.

1. Interest Rate Risk.

Interest rate risk is defined as the exposure to loss due to the potential adverse

impact of interest rate movements. The Company is subject to interest rate risk with respect to its asset portfolio, liabilities and general operations. Fluctuations in both current and anticipated future interest rates directly affect the value and cash flows of the Company’s assets and liabilities. Also, in the normal course of the Company’s business, the Company has receivables and obligations which are payable in the future; changes in interest rates may affect the time value and opportunity costs of such payables and receivables.

In order to effectively assess the Company’s overall interest rate risk present in its

investment portfolio, the measurement is made of duration of the Company’s individual fixed income securities, along with the duration of the Company’s investment portfolio as a whole. The interest rate risk in the Company’s investment portfolio is evaluated and monitored by Risk Management and IIM management on a monthly basis. The Company is authorized to enter into various forms of derivative transactions (see below) to mitigate the interest rate risk of the Company.

2.	Foreign Currency Risk.

Foreign currency risk is defined as the exposure to loss due to fluctuations in

foreign exchange rates. Foreign currency exchange rates are generally affected by a multitude of complex factors, such as the relative strength of the economies of various nations, changes in foreign and domestic interest rates, changes in trade policies, government and central bank interventions and political developments. The Company’s investments may include foreign securities or other investments denominated in non-U.S. currencies. In addition, the Company may receive revenues or incur liabilities from outside of the United States. Consequently, fluctuations in currency rates can affect the Company. In that regard, the Company may use derivative transactions to hedge foreign currency exposure risk. To the extent the Company engages in more sophisticated derivative strategies with respect to foreign currencies, the Board must approve all strategies and testing as part of the risk management process discussed herein.

3.	Credit Risk.

Credit risk is defined as the exposure to loss as a result of default or a decline in

market value stemming from a credit downgrade of a counterparty. Credit risk can also arise from a decline in market value related to a decline in the general creditworthiness of an issuer or a derivative counterparty. The Company may become subject to credit risk not only with respect to its investment portfolio but also with respect to obligations owed to the Company by third parties in the course of its normal business activities (e.g., exposure to risk of default or nonpayment by an assuming reinsurer). The risk of default by a third party obligor, whether an obligor under an investment security (e.g., a default by an issuer of a corporate bond) or an obligor under some other contractual relationship (e.g., an assuming reinsurer), or the risk of loss resulting from a decrease in the value of a security due to the decline in the creditworthiness of an issuer (e.g., a downgrade by a rating agency of the issuer’s credit rating), may be addressed by the Company through the use of derivative transactions, including the use of credit swaps and options. The credit risk of obligors is evaluated and monitored by IIM Risk Management.

4.	Market Risk.

The market value of the Company’s investment portfolio and individual assets are

subject to fluctuations over time. “Market risk” is defined as an exposure to loss due to price changes. The market risk present with respect to the Company’s investment portfolio is dependent in part on the composition and relative concentration of the types of investments in the portfolio. Derivative transactions may be used by the Company to reduce the risk of concentration by the Company in any one type of investment, to diversify the Company’s holdings in a tax-efficient and cost-efficient manner and to compensate for fluctuations in the value of the Company’s assets. With respect to hedging the market risk of debt instruments, the Company hedges such risk through its hedging of interest rate risk, credit risk and volatility risk, as described in this section. With respect to hedging the market risk associated with equity instruments, market risk is monitored by the applicable Reporting Groups (Risk Management and Client Finance) and/or the BU ALC for which market risk exists depending on the type of equity for which market risk is being hedged.

5.	Option/Volatility Risk.

Volatility risk is the risk of fluctuations in the value of an asset or liability over a

relatively short period of time. The volatility risk present with respect to the Company’s portfolio is dependent in part on the composition and relative concentration of the types of investments in the portfolio. In addition, the volatility risk present with respect to the Company’s liabilities is dependent, in part, on the insurance products issued by the Company. Derivative transactions may be used by the Company to reduce the risk of concentration by the Company in any one type of investment (either directly or through the issuance of products tied to an investment), to diversify the Company’s holdings in a tax-efficient and cost-efficient manner and to compensate for fluctuations in the value of the Company’s assets and liabilities.

Option risk refers to the risk of fluctuations in the value of options embedded in

the Company’s investment portfolios or liabilities. The Company may use derivatives to hedge such risk exposures (commonly known as Delta, Gamma, Vega, Rho and Theta).

B.	Hedge Effectiveness

Tests will be conducted periodically (as determined by the Board, but no less

frequently than quarterly) to confirm that derivatives used in hedging transactions continue to mitigate the targeted risk within specified parameters.

1.	Recommendation and Approval of Hedge Effectiveness Tests.

In consultation with IIM Risk Management and the BU ALCs, the US Risk Committee, shall recommend to the Board hedge effectiveness tests (including compliance parameters) such as effective duration, DV01 (the dollar value change of an asset or liability resulting from a 1 basis point change in a reference metric), equity beta or delta, performance attributions or other tests, which are commonly based on historical and statistical data. Based on the recommendations of the US Risk Committee, the Board of Directors shall adopt by resolution hedge effectiveness tests (“Hedge Effectiveness Tests”) and related compliance parameters (“Hedge Effectiveness Parameters.”). The resolutions of the Board, or the Hedge Effectiveness Tests and Hedge Effectiveness Parameters set forth therein, shall be provided, in writing, to the Derivatives Group Head as well as the Investment Groups and the Reporting Groups.

2.	Hedge Effectiveness Testing and Reporting

The BU ALC, IIM Risk Management and other Reporting Groups will conduct Hedge Effectiveness Tests as directed by the US Risk Committee, monitor for compliance against applicable Hedge Effectiveness Parameters, and send a summary of their findings to the Company’s Appointed Actuary (or his/her designee) and to the US Risk Committee (“Hedge Effectiveness Reports”) no less frequently than quarterly. The Appointed Actuary (or his/her designee) shall review the Hedge Effectiveness Reports and submit a compliance statement to the US Risk Committee to the Board of Directors that addresses, among other things, compliance with the Hedge Effectiveness Tests.

C.	Types of Derivative Transactions.

In order to address the risks outlined in Section III. A. above, the Company shall

be authorized to use any of the following derivative instruments, where appropriate, in a prudent manner considering the risks outlined in Section II. E.: options, warrants, caps, floors, collars, swaps, swaptions, forwards and futures or any series or combination thereof.

D.	Risk Measurement.

In order to quantify the various types of risks associated with derivative

transactions, the Company shall apply industry-accepted financial modeling software to evaluate every derivative transaction. In that regard, the Company utilizes numerous systems for measuring risks associated with derivative transactions. Some of the various systems and tests currently utilized in the control and quantifying of risks associated with derivative transactions include:

•	Moody’s KMV

•	BlackRock Aladdin

•	Debt and Derivatives

•

Bloomberg

•	Yield Book

In addition, the Company includes derivative transactions in its asset/liability models that are used in stress testing in accordance with its quarterly asset/liability management and capital calculations.

The applicable Reporting Groups and IIM, in coordination with the overall

Company organization, will periodically evaluate all of the systems and models used by the Company to track and to quantify the risks associated with derivative transactions. In connection with such evaluations, the applicable Reporting Groups and IIM may utilize new or different systems and models that are determined to be more effective in tracking and quantifying risks associated with derivative transactions. If a derivative transaction cannot be input into the Company’s current system, the Company will utilize third parties, such as broker/dealers, to track and quantify the risks associated with such derivative transactions.

IV.	AUTHORIZATION FOR DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND STRATEGIES – LIMITATIONS AND PARAMETERS.

A. Statutory Authority and Compliance.

The Company shall comply with all applicable statutes and regulations. Pursuant

to Section 1410 of the New York Law, the Company may engage in derivative transactions, subject to certain qualitative and quantitative limitations. Because, at present, the New York Law does not authorize an insurance company to engage in derivative transactions under the provisions in the New York Law providing for additional investment authority (i.e., Section 1404(b), the “basket” clause), the Company will not enter into derivative transactions pursuant to the basket clause. Notwithstanding anything in the New York law to the contrary, the Company shall not engage in any derivative transaction that is in contravention of the Colorado insurance code, the corresponding regulations and any publications of the Colorado Department of Insurance. To the extent there is a conflict as between the standards set forth under the New York law and those set forth under Colorado law, the Company shall comply with the stricter of the two standards.

Additionally, in effecting the strategies contemplated in Section II. C. of this Plan,

the Company shall adhere to the qualitative and quantitative limitations described in this Section IV and consult legal counsel if necessary to ensure such compliance.

B.	Quantitative and Other Limitations.

The Company recognizes the importance of diversification and credit quality. Applicable law addresses these issues by imposing certain quantitative and qualitative limitations relating to the strategies and instruments employed to effect a derivative transaction, as well as limitations relating to the diversification and credit quality of derivative transaction counterparties. Prior to entering into a derivative transaction, the Derivatives Desk will confirm that such proposed derivative transaction is in compliance with all qualitative and quantitative limitations set forth in the Colorado and New York Insurance Code. Thereafter, the applicable Reporting Groups (Risk Management and Client Finance) will confirm compliance with such qualitative and quantitative limitations. In addition, the applicable Reporting Groups shall continually monitor the Company’s compliance with and usage of such limitations, and each quarter Client Finance shall submit the Report (as defined in Section V. A. 5.) to US Risk Committee and the Board, which describes such compliance. Unless stricter standards are otherwise provided for under applicable law or the Company through the risk management process, the Company’s limits for different derivative strategies and instruments are as follows:

1.	Limitations Relating to Strategies and Instruments.

In addition to the limitations relating to counterparties and the other limitations set

forth below, the Company shall comply with the limitations specifically applicable to the strategies of hedging, income generation and replication.

(a) Hedging.

The Company may engage in hedging transactions, provided that the hedge

continues to be effective according to the Company’s approved evaluation procedures described herein (see Section III. B. of this Plan) and the Company complies with the following quantitative limitations:

•	The aggregate statement value⁶ of options, swaptions, caps, floors and warrants purchased by the Company and used in hedging transactions shall not exceed 7.5% of the Company’s admitted assets.

•	The aggregate statement value of options, swaptions, caps and floors written by the Company for hedging transactions shall not exceed 3% of the Company’s admitted assets.

•	The aggregate potential exposure⁷ of collars, swaps, forwards and futures used in hedging transactions and options, swaptions, caps and floors written by the Company shall not exceed 6.5% of the insurer’s admitted assets.

(b)	Income Generation.

The Company may enter into income generation derivative transactions that are

allowed by the state laws and regulations of Colorado and New York. Currently approved transactions consist only of the sale of call options on securities, provided that the Company holds, or can immediately acquire through the exercise of options, warrants or conversion rights already owned, the underlying securities during the entire period the call option is outstanding. Income generation transactions authorized hereunder shall not exceed 10% of the Company’s admitted assets.

(c)	Replication.

The Company may engage in replication transactions provided that the Company

would otherwise be authorized to invest its funds in the asset or asset class being replicated, the replication continues to be effective and the Company complies with the following quantitative limitations:

•	The Company shall aggregate all replicated investment positions (as if the Company had invested in the replicated asset directly) with its direct investments in determining its compliance with applicable quantitative limitations on investments.

•	The aggregate statement value of assets being replicated shall not exceed 10% of the Company’s admitted assets.

The Company shall also comply with the filing requirements of Part 13 of the Purposes and Procedures Manual of the NAIC Securities Valuation Office relating to replicated synthetic asset transactions (“RSATs”).

2.	Limitations Relating to Counterparties.

As described in II. E. 2. of this Plan, the Company shall monitor the credit quality

of its counterparties and regularly analyze and review its counterparty exposure. The Company shall limit its aggregate counterparty exposure⁸ under one or more OTC Derivative Instruments (as defined in II. E. 2 of this Plan) to (a) 1% of its admitted assets for any single counterparty, other than a "qualified counterparty,"⁹ and (b) 3% of its admitted assets for all counterparties, other than qualified counterparties. In addition, the counterparty exposure to the Company (as defined in Section II. E. 2.) under an OTC Derivative Instrument shall be deemed to be an obligation of the institution to which the Company is exposed to credit risk and shall be included in determining compliance with any single or quantitative limitation applicable to investments or obligations by insurance companies.

C.	Documentation in Connection with Derivative Transactions.

As part of the risk management oversight process, the Board, based on

recommendations of IIM Risk Management, shall establish counterparty risk guidelines from which the Company will establish a list of approved counterparties. Such guidelines require any counterparty to meet certain minimum credit ratings, as determined by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization (e.g., Moody’s, Standard and Poor’s, etc.). In connection with establishing counterparty risk guidelines IIM’s Legal department on behalf of the Company shall maintain a list of authorized counterparties, indicating with respect to each such authorized counterparty whether it is a qualified counterparty or non-qualified counterparty. The foregoing list shall be made readily available to any person involved in the Company’s derivative transactions. The Board, upon recommendations from IIM shall periodically (at least annually) update the list of authorized counterparties. The Operations Group shall periodically, at least annually, review prior derivative transactions to ensure that such transactions continue to be with authorized counterparties. The Company may enter into a derivative transaction with a counterparty not on the aforementioned list, provided the counterparty is a qualified counterparty and is approved by IIM Risk Management.

As a general rule, all OTC Derivative Instrument transactions of the Company

shall be entered into under an appropriate form of the ISDA Master Agreement and any negotiated schedules thereto. Except as otherwise permitted by applicable law and the Company’s counterparty credit risk guidelines, each ISDA Master Agreement shall include an ISDA Credit Support Annex (CSA), as supplemented or amended providing for collateralization of the transactions, including collateral Thresholds and Minimum Transfer Amounts consistent with the requirements for qualified counterparties. IIM Risk Management may also require that the ISDA Master Agreements include credit rating downgrade termination-triggers and other credit terms. Each OTC Derivative Instrument transaction shall be documented on a confirmation subject to the terms of the ISDA Master Agreement between the Company and the counterparty. All ISDA Master Agreements and CSAs shall be reviewed by a licensed attorney with substantial derivatives and securities experience to ensure such documents are in compliance with applicable law and enforceable. Transactions may only be executed with authorized counterparties that have a previously signed ISDA Master Agreement and CSA subject to certain limited exceptions based on a facts and circumstances test and approved by IIM Risk Management, IIM Legal, and IIM Compliance.

"Minimum Transfer Amount" is defined as an amount below which a daily margin and collateral settlement is not required.

V. OVERSIGHT, INTERNAL CONTROL PROCEDURES AND REPORTING.

A. Division of Responsibility.

1.	Board of Directors.

The ultimate responsibility for all investments and investment activities (including the Company’s use of derivative transactions) is vested in the Board. In discharging its duties with regard to derivative transactions, the Board shall act in good faith with a degree of care that an ordinary, prudent person in similar circumstances would use. As further described in this Plan, the Board shall (i) set parameters for engaging in derivative transactions, based on recommendations from US Risk Committee (see below) and the Derivatives Group Head (see below); (ii) set risk tolerance levels with respect to derivative transactions, based upon recommendations provided from US Risk Committee and the Derivatives Group Head; (iii) approve hedging strategies, as contemplated in Section II. C. 1. hereof; and (iv) approve tests and standards used by the US Risk Committee to confirm that derivatives used in hedging transactions effectively hedge/mitigate the targeted risks; and (v) oversee the effectiveness of all oversight and internal control procedures with respect to derivative transactions. In addition, the Board, in consultation with US Risk Committee and the Derivatives Group Head, shall review and order changes necessary to the risk management process regarding derivative transactions, as described in this Plan. In connection with the aforementioned duties, the Board receives the Report, as described below, quarterly. In addition, the Board shall order to be prepared any other reports it deems necessary to carry out its oversight function with respect to derivative transactions.

2.	US Risk Committee.

US Risk Committee is the asset liability committee for ING’s US operations. ING US is the ultimate controlling parent of the Company. US Risk Committee is responsible for monitoring the Company’s risk management activities, including the Company’s investment activities and use of derivatives. The US Risk Committee will generally meet at least four times per year to receive reports and address risk management activities related to interest rate risk, equity risk, credit risk, and foreign currency risk, as well as other non-market risks that affect ING. The membership of US Risk Committee is comprised of senior officers from ING US and IIM. The membership will generally include the Chief Financial Officer, the Chief Risk Officer of ING US, and senior representatives from IIM.

US Risk Committee shall review the Report (defined below), as it relates to all US operations, and any other reports related to derivatives activities sent by the Appointed Actuary (or his/her designee), Client Finance, Risk Management or the BU ALCs and shall confirm that Board proscribed hedge effectiveness tests are being conducted and that the effectiveness of the hedges fall within the Hedge Effectiveness Parameters. The US Risk Committee shall also recommend hedge effectiveness tests to the Board and shall advise the Board with respect to an overall philosophy for engaging in derivative transactions, including desired risk tolerance levels and limitations with respect to the types of risk set forth in Section II. E. hereof.

While the Company does not have any pre-established, specific, quantified risk

tolerance levels, when making recommendations to the Board, US Risk Committee will consider information provided by the BU ALCs and IIM. US Risk Committee will also consider the nonfinancial aspects of the Company’s business that may be affected by poor performance of the Company’s derivative transactions (i.e., market perception and reputational risk). In conjunction with its responsibilities, US Risk Committee may direct Client Finance or Risk Management to assemble data and provide such reports as US Risk Committee deems necessary from time to time so as to properly assess the strengths and limitations of the Company’s risk management system.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, US Risk Committee shall not be

required to meet or conduct the foregoing activities with respect to any quarter in which the Company has not engaged in derivative transactions and has no open derivative position. US Risk Committee shall submit reports and, as required, recommendations to the Board on at least a quarterly basis with respect to its responsibilities described hereunder. Such reports shall include a summary of the results of the Board Hedge Effectiveness Tests.

3. Business Unit Asset Liability Committee.

ING US establishes a business unit for each type of insurance product line sold by

its affiliated insurance companies. Each such business unit has an asset liability committee (i.e., BU ALC). The BU ALC is responsible for monitoring the BU’s risk management activities, including the Company’s investment activities and use of derivatives. A business unit operates across various companies engaging in a particular line of business. A BU ALC may recommend an appropriate derivative investment strategy with respect to the applicable type of insurance product, which is then applied to the Company with respect to the applicable line of business.

The BU ALCs are internal committees of ING US. The BU ALCs will generally

meet at least four times per year to receive reports and address risk management activities related to interest rate risk, equity risk, credit risk, and foreign currency risk, as well as other non-market risks that affect the BU. Each BU ALC is comprised of senior officers from IIM and the applicable business unit. The membership of each BU ALC will generally include the Chief Executive Officer, the Chief Financial Officer, and the Chief Insurance Risk Officer of the BU, and senior representatives from IIM portfolio management. The BU ALC members will possess the necessary expertise to assess the Company’s risk management process with respect to derivative transactions for each business product line in which the Company engages and possess the independence to do so without undue influence by those individuals directly involved in the Company’s derivative transactions.

Each BU ALC recommends to US Risk Committee (i) any appropriate derivatives

strategies with respect to the applicable line of business and (ii) changes to the risk management process with respect to such applicable line of business of the Company. In conjunction with its responsibilities, each BU ALC may direct Client Finance or Risk Management to assemble such data and provide such reports as each BU ALC deems necessary from time to time so as to properly assess the strengths and limitations of the Company’s risk management system with respect the applicable line of business

4. Derivatives Group Head - Investment Groups.

All oversight of day-to-day decisions regarding the Company’s use of derivative

transactions shall be vested in a senior investment professional of IIM with extensive experience and expertise in derivative transactions (“Derivatives Group Head”). In overseeing the day-today derivative activities of the Company, the Derivatives Group Head will comply with all provisions of Colorado law, the applicable New York law, as well as the terms of this Plan and all standards established by the Board in conjunction with US Risk Committee.

The Derivatives Group Head shall be responsible for all execution of derivative

transactions and the day-to-day monitoring of derivative positions, subject to the direction of the Board based on recommendations of US Risk Committee and reports the Board and US Risk

Committee receive directly from Client Finance or Risk Management. The Derivatives Group Head shall be responsible for ensuring adherence to all internal limits and other policy guidelines based on the reports from the Reporting Groups; provided, however, the Board, BU ALC and US Risk Committee shall oversee the Derivatives Group Head based on reports received directly from Client Finance, which for the purposes of control shall be independent of and not report to the Derivatives Group Head and Risk Management. These responsibilities shall include:

(1)	execution and monitoring all derivatives transactions on behalf of the Company;

(2)	ensure compliance with all provisions of Colorado law, applicable New York law, the terms of this Plan, and any other standards and policies established by the Board;

(3)	ensure adherence to all internal limits and other policy guidelines based on Reporting Groups reports;

(4)	translate risk tolerance levels established by the Board upon the recommendations provided to it by US Risk Committee into effective policies and procedures that address each individual derivative transaction, as well as the entire portfolio of derivative transactions;

(5)

in conjunction with the Board, US Risk Committee and BU ALC, review and assess the strengths and limitations of the Company’s risk management systems, inform the Board and US Risk Committee of any deficiency in the risk management systems and assist and make recommendations to the Board to strengthen, as necessary, the Company’s risk management systems;

(6)	take all steps necessary, as determined by the Board, to strengthen the risk management systems;

(7)	oversee periodic reporting (at least quarterly) to the Board and the

US Risk Committee on derivatives activity; and

(8)	Recommend to the Board:

(i)

Senior Derivatives Portfolio Managers and Derivatives

Portfolio Managers;

(ii)

new derivative instruments and trading strategies; and

(iii)

derivatives counterparties and counterparty exposure limits.

The Derivatives Group Head shall review at least quarterly and, if appropriate (as provided below), pre-approve or ratify after-the-fact derivative transactions entered into by the Company in accordance with this Plan.

The Investment Groups, which are subject to the direction and control of the Derivatives Group Head, advise the Company and the Derivatives Group Head, as well as the Senior Derivatives Portfolio Managers (as defined below), as to the need for the Company to enter into or adjust derivative transactions. In addition, subject to the approval of the Board, the Derivatives Group Head will delegate to personnel within the Investment Groups (each a “Senior Derivatives Portfolio Manager”) the authority to authorize certain derivative transactions within the limits set forth in this Plan and pursuant to the derivatives strategies and goals established by the Board. Furthermore, subject to the approval of the Board and based on the recommendations of any Senior Derivatives Portfolio Manager, the Derivatives Group Head will delegate to certain personnel within the Investment Groups (“Derivatives Portfolio Managers”) the authority to execute derivative transaction at the direction of the Senior Derivatives Portfolio Manager.

The Derivatives Group Head shall establish limitations and restrictions on the

delegation of authority to any Senior Derivatives Portfolio Managers and Derivatives Portfolio Managers within the parameters of this Plan and shall ensure that derivative trading on behalf of the Company is monitored against these limits and restrictions. Any derivative transaction exceeding the limitations established by the Derivatives Group Head will require the prior written approval of the Derivatives Group Head and of the Board if the transaction exceeds specific personnel authorizations established by the Board. In order to obtain such written approval, the Senior Derivatives Portfolio Manager must submit a written request for approval to the Derivatives Group Head in which the benefits and risks of the proposed transaction are analyzed. If the Derivatives Group Head approves the proposal, he/she shall submit the written proposal, with his/her recommendation of approval, to the Board if the proposal exceeds specific personnel authorizations established by the Board. If the Board agrees with the Derivatives Group Head, such agreement will be reflected in the Board’s minutes.

Each Senior Derivatives Portfolio Manager and each Derivatives Portfolio Manager will possess the knowledge and experience necessary to make sound, reasonable decisions regarding derivative transactions. The Derivatives Group Head will inform each Senior Derivatives Portfolio Manager and Derivative Portfolio Manager of the terms of this Plan, any amendment hereto and any subsequent decisions of the Board, regarding derivative transactions

5. Reporting Groups.

The Reporting Groups are charged with assembling and distributing all data and

reports (including, the Report) with respect to the Company’s investment portfolio, including its derivative transactions. In addition, the Reporting Groups are charged with confirming the accuracy of all derivative transactions entered into by the Derivatives Desk, and settling trades. The Reporting Groups shall conduct such tests and prepare such reports required under this Plan and as required by the US Risk Committee, BU ALCs (with respect to a line of business) and the Board to establish a derivatives strategy and monitor the risk management process. There are currently three Reporting Groups: (i) Risk Management, which is charged with monitoring all derivative transactions and preparing reports to the Investment Groups in connection therewith; (ii) Client Finance, which is charged with preparing certain reports including the Report to US Risk Committee, BU ALC and the Board; and (iii) the Operations Group, which is charged with settling all derivative transactions. Reporting Groups may be reconfigured or new Reporting Groups formed as part of the Company’s risk management process.

In addition to the other reports discussed herein, each quarter Client Finance shall

be responsible for generating a detailed derivative transaction report (the “Report”) containing information pertaining to the Company’s derivative activities during the relevant period. The Report will be provided to the Board and the US Risk Committee, or its designated subcommittee, with respect to the Company. The information provided in the Report will enable the Board and US Risk Committee to facilitate its quarterly review of the Company’s derivative transactions. The Report will contain the following information:

•	outstanding derivative positions and unrealized gains or losses on such positions, if any;

•	derivative transactions opened and/or closed during the quarter and realized gains and losses on such transactions, if any;

•	a review of all counterparty exposure amounts outstanding;

•	a valuation of the derivative transactions, in accordance with

Section II. D. of this Plan;

•	a performance review of the Company’s derivative transactions and an evaluation of the risks and benefits of such derivative transactions;

•

a report from the Company’s Appointed Actuary (or his/her designee), or their designated representative member of a BU ALC, or other appropriate person, as to whether all derivative transactions are in compliance with this Plan and the applicable law, which report shall include a performance review of the Company’s derivative transactions and an evaluation of the risks and benefits of such derivative transactions; and

•	any other reports, documentation or analysis deemed necessary by the Board, to ascertain whether all derivative transactions have been made in accordance with the delegations, standards, limitations and objectives contained in this Plan.

6. Internal Audit Department.

In addition to the aforementioned internal control procedures, ING has established

an Internal Audit Department whose members are currently independent of the US Risk Committee, the BU ALCs, and the IIM Investment and Reporting Groups. The audit department ultimately reports to the Chairman of the Board of Directors of ING and the audit committee of the ING Board of Directors. The Internal Audit Department shall be responsible for reviewing the Company’s derivative transactions, including, but not limited to, the expertise of the Company’s and IIM’s staff handling and reviewing the derivative transactions, the adequacy of any systems used in connection with the Company’s derivative transactions and the adequacy of organizational segregation of duties among the Company’s various departments, committees and divisions. The Internal Audit Department will periodically (as determined by the Company’s Board, ING, or US Risk Committee, but no less frequently than every three years) audit the derivative practices of the Company or its derivative practice with respect to a particular business unit to determine compliance with this Plan and the goals of the Company. Any deficiencies identified by the Internal Audit Department will be reported to the Board and US Risk Committee.

B.	Qualifications of Derivative Transaction Personnel.

On no less than an annual basis, the Board shall review the qualifications of all

personnel involved with conducting, tracking and reviewing derivative trading activities on the Company’s behalf, including the persons in the Investment Groups and the Reporting Groups involved in derivative trading activities, to ensure that all individuals conducting, monitoring, controlling and auditing derivative transactions are suitably qualified and have appropriate levels of knowledge and experience to hold their respective positions. While the Board does not adopt specific qualifications for holding any particular position with regard to the Company’s derivative trading activities, with respect to any particular position, the Board examines the authority of the position and the education and experiences of such person in such position. As a general rule, all persons involved in the Company’s derivative transactions have college degrees and many such persons have post graduate degrees and certifications, such as CPAs or CFAs.

C.	Internal Control Procedures – Process for Approval and Monitoring of Individual Transactions.

All investment transactions performed by the Company, including derivative

transactions, are executed by members of IIM upon the authority granted to them by the Board. Each derivative transaction shall be executed by the Derivative Trading Desk of IIM (“Derivative Desk”) in accordance with the parameters established by the Board. Furthermore, every transaction shall be approved by two members of the Derivative Desk, one of whom must be a Senior Derivatives Portfolio Manager. Prior to entering into any derivative transaction, the Derivative Desk shall confirm (i) the derivative transaction is within the parameters of this Plan and any other parameters set by the Company to ensure such derivative transaction is in compliance with Colorado and New York law, and (ii) the counterparty is an approved counterparty (as contemplated in Section IV. C. of this Plan. In addition, in examining whether the Company should engage in a particular derivative strategy, the applicable Senior Derivatives Portfolio Manager will examine (i) the guidelines set forth herein, (ii) the intended purpose of the transaction and (iii) the incremental risks set forth in this Plan. The exact details of each derivative transaction shall be recorded in IIM’s system, including: (i) the purpose of the transaction, (ii) the specific portfolio to which the transaction relates, (iii) the counterparty to the transaction; (iv) the type of instrument used; (v) notional amount of the transaction; (vii) the consideration exchanged for the transaction; and (vii) any collateral or other credit support given or received in relation to the derivative transaction.

After commencement of the derivative transaction, the Operations Group shall

review the trade information entered into the system (i.e., the trade ticket) as well as the confirmation received from the counterparty to the derivative transaction for any discrepancies. To the extent that a discrepancy is discovered by the Operations Group, the Senior Derivatives Portfolio Manager that initially ordered the trade in question shall be notified to contact the respective counterparty to resolve such discrepancy. If such discrepancy cannot be resolved, the Senior Derivatives Portfolio Manager shall take any and all steps necessary, including liquidating the transaction, to mitigate any negative impact of such trade. In addition, the Operations Group shall be responsible for the settlement of all derivative transactions.

The Reporting Groups will be responsible for ensuring the proper monitoring of

the performance of each derivative transaction during its holding period to make certain that each derivative transaction continues to perform as originally intended and each such transaction remains in compliance with (i) all applicable laws and regulations, (ii) the terms of this Plan, (iii) the standards established by the Board and (iv) the underlying transaction documentation. Any derivative transaction that is no longer in compliance with the aforementioned laws, regulations, this Plan, the standards established by the Board or underlying documentation will be terminated or offset with a remedial transaction, as prudence and market conditions may dictate.

D.	Independent Certified Public Accountant.

No less frequently than annually, the Board shall engage the Company’s

independent certified public accountants to assess the adequacy of the Company’s internal controls relative to derivative transactions. The Company will include, as part of the evaluation of accounting procedures and internal controls required to be filed under the New York law, a statement describing the assessment by such independent certified public accountants of the internal controls relative to derivative transactions. The Board may also request the Company’s independent certified public accountants to prepare a report containing any other information which the Board deems necessary to verify the information and conclusions in the Report. The Board, in conjunction with US Risk Committee, will ensure that any material deficiencies in the internal control procedures set forth in the independent certified public accountants’ report are promptly corrected.

E.	Records and Documentation.

The Reporting Groups shall ensure that original documentation is maintained with

respect to each derivative transaction during the pendency and following the termination of each such transaction, in accordance with applicable Colorado laws/regulations governing record retention policies and procedures and in accordance with New York Regulations (including New York Regulation No. 152). All reports and documentation maintained by the Company regarding its derivative transactions will be available for (i) review by the Board and (ii) independent audit and regulatory examination. The Reporting Groups, under the direction of the Board, shall use such records to prepare and maintain summary report information with respect to all derivative transactions in sufficient form and detail to allow the preparation of Schedule DB of the Company’s statutory Annual and Quarterly Statements.
