GR-NEAM®

GENERAL RE - NEW ENGLAND ASSET MANAGEMENT, INC.

This Agreement is made as of the 1st day of January, 2013, between

1. GENERAL RE - NEW ENGLAND ASSET MANAGEMENT, INC., a corporation organized under the laws of the State of Delaware ("Manager"); and

2. US ALLIANCE CORPORATION, a corporation organized under the laws of the State of Kansas, and its affiliates listed on Schedule E (collectively, the "Client").

WHEREAS, Client appoints Manager as the investment manager of that portion of Client's assets constituting the Account (as defined below) for fees agreed upon in Schedule A. III.;

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements herein contained, it is agreed as follows:

Section 1. The Account

The cash, securities and other assets placed by Client in the account to be managed under this Agreement (the "Account") are listed on Section I.A. of Schedule A. Assets may be added to the Account at any time. Client will provide notification to the Manager of any such additions. The Account will include these assets and any changes in them resulting from transactions directed by Manager, withdrawals and additions made by Client, or dividends, interest, stock splits and other earnings, gains or losses on the assets.

Assets of the Client that are not to be managed by Manager are separately identified on Schedule A ("Unmanaged Assets"). Manager may include these assets in its periodic reports to Client, but will exclude their value when calculating Manager's asset management fees and Manager shall not be responsible for valuation of any Unmanaged Assets.

Section 2. Management of the Account

Manager will make all investment decisions for the Account, in Manager's sole discretion and without first consulting or notifying Client, in accordance with the investment restrictions and guidelines which are attached as Schedule B (the "Investment Guidelines"). If Manager manages only a portion of Client's total assets, unless otherwise specified by Client in writing,

EXECUTION VERSION

GR-NEAM®

Investment Guidelines' restrictions relate specifically to the assets managed by Manager. Client may change these Investment Guidelines at any time, but Manager will be bound by the changes only after it has received and agreed to them in writing. Other than by the Investment Guidelines and the terms of this Agreement, the investments made by Manager on behalf of the Client will not be restricted in any manner, except by operation of law.

In the event that the Account ceases to conform to the Investment Guidelines as a result of changes in market values, maturities, amortization rates, credit ratings or other characteristics of the securities within the portfolio, Manager will not be required to take immediate action to bring the portfolio back into compliance with the Investment Guidelines, but will: inform Client of the non-compliance; offer Client the opportunity to consult on the situation; and use its discretion to return the portfolio to compliance over time with a minimum of disruption to the portfolio.

Manager will have full power and authority, on behalf of Client, to instruct any brokers, dealers or banks to buy, sell, exchange, convert or otherwise trade in all securities, futures or other investments for the Account.

Manager will not be responsible for giving Client investment advice or taking any other action with respect to Unmanaged Assets.

Client appoints Manager as the true and lawful attorney of the Client for and in the name, place and stead of Client, in Manager's unrestricted discretion, to operate and conduct the brokerage accounts of the Client and to do and perform all and every act and thing whatsoever requisite in furtherance of this Agreement, including the execution of all writings related to the purchase or sale, assignments, transfers and ownership of any stocks, bonds, commodities, or other derivatives or securities, including, without limitation, such documentation relating to restructuring, reorganization or other action of or relating to the issuer. Manager is hereby fully authorized to act and rely on the authority vested pursuant to said power of attorney.

Effective as of January 1, 2013, and until further notice, Manager will provide investment accounting services for Client, and will assist Client in preparing Client's statutory Schedule D, if applicable. Client acknowledges that Manager will provide accounting data according to Manager's standard interpretation of accounting principles, unless expressly instructed otherwise by Client's prior written notice.

Section 3. Transactions for the Account

Manager will arrange for securities transactions for the Account to be executed through those brokers, dealers or banks that Manager believes will provide best execution. In choosing a broker, dealer or bank, Manager will consider the broker, dealer or bank's execution capability, reputation and access to the markets for the securities being traded for the Account. Manager will seek competitive commission rates, but not necessarily the lowest rates available.

EXECUTION VERSION

GR-NEAM®

Manager may also send transactions for the Account to brokers who charge higher commissions than other brokers, provided that Manager determines in good faith that the amount of commissions Manager pays is reasonable in relation to the value of the brokerage and research services provided, viewed in terms either of that particular transaction or Manager's overall responsibilities with respect to all clients whose accounts Manager manages on a discretionary basis.

Portfolio transactions for each client account generally are completed independently. However, if Manager decides to purchase or sell the same securities for Client and other clients at about the same time, Manager may combine Client's order with those of other clients if Manager reasonably believes that it will be able to negotiate better prices or lower commission rates or transaction costs for the combined order than for Client's order alone. Client will pay the average price and transaction costs obtained for such combined orders. Manager generally will allocate securities purchased or sold as part of a combined order to Client's Account and to accounts of other clients according to the size of the order placed for each client.

If Manager is unable to obtain execution for the total amount of the securities in the combined orders, adjustments to the allocation will generally be made on a random methodology basis with the exception of certain alternative high yield fixed income security transactions which are allocated on a pro-rata basis. However, Manager may increase or decrease the amounts of securities allocated to each client if necessary to avoid having odd or small number of shares held for the account of any client and may deviate from a selected allocation methodology based on, among other factors, available cash in the account or account-specific investment guidelines. Each client that participates in a combined order will receive or pay the average share price and/or transactions costs for all transactions executed as part of the combined order.

If Client directs Manager to use particular brokers, dealers or banks to execute transactions for the Account, Manager will do so, but Manager will not seek better execution services or prices for Client from other brokers, dealers or banks, and Client may pay higher prices or transaction costs as a result. Manager also may not be able to seek better execution services for Client by combining Client's orders with those of other clients.

Client may direct all transactions for the Account to a particular broker, dealer or bank, by writing the name and address of that broker, dealer or bank in the space provided on Schedule A.

Any tax-related documentation required by broker/dealers and/or custodian banks shall be completed by Client. This includes Forms W-9 or W-8 which are necessary to confirm Client's tax identification number and certification of tax status. Upon receipt, Client shall process promptly as failure to do so may result in transactions in the Client's account to be subject to backup withholding payments.

Section 4. Transaction Confirmations

Manager will instruct the brokers, dealers or banks who execute transactions for the Account to send Client duplicate copies of all transaction confirmations, unless Client chooses not to receive confirmations. If Client does not wish to receive individual confirmations, this box should be

checked. ❑

Client may elect to receive individual confirmations at any time by giving Manager written notice.

Section 5. Custody of Account Assets

The assets in the Account will be held for Client by the custodian named on Schedule A (the "Custodian"). Manager will not have custody of any Account assets. Client will pay all fees of the Custodian.

Client will authorize the Custodian to follow Manager's instructions to make and accept payments for, and to deliver or to receive, securities, cash or other investments purchased, sold, redeemed, exchanged, pledged or loaned for the Account. Client also will instruct the Custodian to send Client and Manager monthly statements showing the assets in and all transactions for the Account during the month, including any payments of Manager's fees.

Client will give Manager reasonable advance notice of any change of Custodian.

Section 6. Client Reports and Electronically Available CARA® Toolset and Information

Both Parties agree that the Web Access Addendum attached as Schedule F hereto shall govern the Manager's provisions and Client's use of the electronically available CARA° toolset and information.

Manager shall prepare 1) monthly appraisal reports and detailed holdings reports, showing current book values, securities valuations, unrealized gains and losses, book yields and average life; and 2) quality and maturity distribution reports.

Additionally, investment accounting reports generally include the following:

q Investment Income Earned

EXECUTION VERSION

GR-NEAM®

Manager shall deliver investment accounting reports to Client no later than the morning of the sixth business day following each reporting month.

Client agrees to obtain its appraisals and investment accounting reports via Manager's website, XXXXXX.xxx. However, both Parties agree that the Client has the right to receive hard copies and that upon Client's written request, Manager will send Client hard copies of the appraisals and/or investment accounting reports.

The Account's performance will be sent monthly, quarterly or annually upon Client request. Ad hoc reports and presentation materials are prepared as reasonably directed by Client.

Section 7. Account Valuation

Manager will value the securities in the Account using independent pricing sources. Securities shall be valued in accordance with any reasonable valuation method selected by Manager, consistent with industry accepted practices. While Manager does its best to obtain representative market prices for all securities in the Account, such prices do not always reflect the price actually received or paid on the open market.

Section 8. Manager's Fees

For Manager's services, Client will pay a percentage of the value, as determined under Section 7 of this Agreement, of all assets in the Account (excluding Unmanaged Assets) as of the last trading day of each calendar month. In the event this Agreement is terminated prior to any month end, fees for the final partial month shall be calculated based on the valuation of assets performed at the end of the prior month. The fees are payable at the end of each calendar quarter for services provided by Manager during the prior three months. The percentage amount of the fees and a minimum annual fee are shown on Schedule A. In any partial period, the fees will be reduced pro rata based on the number of days the Account was managed.

Client will be billed directly by Manager and will pay Manager's fees within 30 days of receiving the xxxx.

If Manager invests in securities issued by money market funds or other investment companies for the Account, these securities will be included in the value of the Account when Manager's fees are calculated. These same assets will be subject to additional investment management and other fees that are paid by the investment company but ultimately borne by its shareholders. These additional fees are described in each investment company's prospectus.

Section 12. Standard of Care; Limitation of Liability

Except as may otherwise be provided by law, Manager will not be liable to Client for any loss (i) that Client may suffer as a result of Manager's good faith decisions or actions where Manager exercises the degree of care, skill, prudence and diligence that a prudent person acting in a like fiduciary capacity would use; (ii) caused by following Client's instructions; (iii) caused by the Custodian, any broker, dealer or bank to which Manager directs transactions for the Account or any other person; (iv) resulting from legislation, actions by public authorities, acts of war, natural disasters, strikes, blockades, boycotts, lockouts or similar circumstances; (v) caused by securities exchanges or other marketplaces, custodian institutions, central securities depositories, clearing organizations, or other parties which provide equivalent services; or (vi) caused by contractors selected by Manager with due care or those who have been recommended by the Client. Nor shall the Manager be liable for any damage or loss that occurs to the Client or any other affiliate or interest holder due to restrictions upon disposal that may be applied against the Manager in respect of financial instruments.

Federal and state securities laws impose liabilities under certain circumstances on persons who act in good faith, and this Agreement does not waive or limit Client's rights under those laws.

Manager intends to review applicable state insurance investment regulations and to make guidelines recommendations to Client based on its understanding of them. Client understands that such recommendations do not constitute legal, tax or regulatory advice and are for informational purposes only. Client acknowledges that it is solely responsible for the guidelines and compliance with applicable laws.

In managing the Account, Manager will not consider any other securities, cash, or other investments or assets Client owns for diversification or other purposes. Manager shall have no responsibility whatsoever for the management of the Unmanaged Assets or any assets of Client other than the Account and shall incur no liability for any loss or damage which may result from the management of such other assets.
