RECEIVABLES PURCHASE AGREEMENT

This Receivables Purchase Agreement dated as of December 31, 2008 is among AILIC RECEIVABLES CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation (“Seller”), AMERICAN INCOME LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY, an insurance company organized under the laws of Indiana (“AIL”), as the initial Servicer (the Servicer together with the Seller, the “Seller Parties” and each a “Seller Party”), and TMK Re Ltd., a Bermuda reinsurance corporation (“Purchaser”). Unless defined elsewhere herein, capitalized terms used in this Agreement shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in Exhibit I.

ARTICLE I

PURCHASE ARRANGEMENTS

Section 1.1 Purchase Facility. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions hereof, Seller may, at its option, sell and assign Purchaser Interests to the Purchaser. In accordance with the terms and conditions set forth herein, Purchaser shall purchase Purchaser Interests from time to time in an aggregate amount not to exceed the Purchase Limit during the period from the date hereof to but not including the Amortization Date.

Section 1.2 Increases. Seller shall provide the Purchaser with at least two Business Days’ prior written notice of each Incremental Purchase . Such notice (a “Purchase Notice”) shall be in the form set forth as Exhibit II hereto. Each Purchase Notice shall be subject to Section 6.2 hereof and, except as set forth below, shall be irrevocable and shall specify the requested Purchase Price (which amount shall not be less than $500,000, or an increment of $100,000 in excess thereof) and shall not be greater than the Commitment Availability as of the date of the proposed purchase, and the date of purchase (which shall be a Settlement Date). On the date of each Purchase, upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Article VI, Purchaser shall deposit to the Facility Account, in immediately available funds, no later than 12:00 noon (Central time), an amount equal to the aggregate Purchase Price of the Purchaser Interests Purchaser is then purchasing.

Section 1.3 Decreases. Seller shall provide the Purchaser with prior written notice in conformity with the Required Notice Period of any reduction from Collections requested by Seller of Capital (a “Reduction Notice”). Such Reduction Notice shall designate (i) the date (the “Proposed Reduction Date”) upon which any such reduction of Capital shall occur (which date shall give effect to the applicable Required Notice Period), and (ii) the aggregate amount of Capital to be reduced which shall be applied to the Purchaser Interests of Purchaser in accordance with the amount of Capital (if any) owing to Purchaser (the “Aggregate Reduction”). Only one (1) Reduction Notice shall be outstanding at any time. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Aggregate Reduction will not be made if the Amortization Date shall have occurred for any reason on or prior to the Proposed Reduction Date.

Section 1.4 Payment Requirements. All amounts to be paid or deposited by any Seller Party pursuant to any provision of this Agreement shall be paid or deposited in accordance with the terms hereof no later than 11:00 a.m. (Central time) on the day

when due in immediately available funds, and if not received before 11:00 a.m. (Central time) shall be deemed to be received on the next succeeding Business Day. If such amounts are payable to Purchaser they shall be paid until otherwise notified by the Purchaser. If any amount hereunder shall be payable on a day which is not a Business Day, such amount shall be payable on the next succeeding Business Day.

ARTICLE II

PAYMENTS AND COLLECTIONS

Section 2.1 Payments. Notwithstanding any limitation on recourse contained in this Agreement, Seller shall immediately pay to the Purchaser when due, on a full recourse basis, (i) such fees as set forth in the Fee Letter, (ii) all amounts payable as Yield, (iii) all amounts payable as Deemed Collections (which shall be applied to reduce outstanding Capital hereunder in accordance with Sections 2.2 and 2.3 hereof), (iv) all amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.6, (v) all amounts payable pursuant to Article X, if any, (vi) all Servicer costs and expenses in connection with servicing, administering and collecting the Receivables, and (viii) all Default Fees (collectively, the “Obligations”). If any Person fails to pay any of the Obligations when due, such Person agrees to pay, on demand, the Default Fee in respect thereof until paid. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no provision of this Agreement or the fee letter between Seller and Purchaser shall require the payment or permit the collection of any amounts hereunder in excess of the maximum permitted by applicable law. If at any xxxx Xxxxxx receives any Collections or is deemed to receive any Collections, Seller shall immediately pay such Collections or Deemed Collections to the Servicer for application toward the purchase of new Receivables or for handling as otherwise provided herein and, at all times prior to such payment, such Collections shall be held in trust by Seller for the exclusive benefit of the Purchaser.

Section 2.2 Collections Prior to Amortization. Prior to the Amortization Date, any Collections and/or Deemed Collections received by the Servicer (after the initial purchase of a Purchaser Interest hereunder and on or prior to the Amortization Date of such Purchaser Interest) shall be set aside and held in trust by the Servicer for the payment of any accrued and unpaid Aggregate Unpaids up to the amount necessary to fund such Aggregate Unpaids. If at any time any Collections and/or Deemed Collections are received by the Servicer prior to the Amortization Date, Seller hereby requests and the Purchaser hereby agrees to make, simultaneously with such receipt, a reinvestment (each a “Reinvestment”) with that portion of each and every Collection received by the Servicer that is part of any Purchaser Interest, such that after giving effect to such Reinvestment, the amount of Capital of such Purchaser Interest immediately after such receipt and corresponding Reinvestment shall be equal to the amount of Capital immediately prior to such receipt. On each Settlement Date prior to the occurrence of the Amortization Date, the Servicer shall remit to the Purchaser’s account the amounts set aside during the preceding Settlement Period and apply such amounts (if not previously paid in accordance with Section 2.1) to reduce other Obligations. If such other Obligations shall be reduced to zero, any additional Collections and/or Deemed Collections received by the Servicer shall (i) if applicable, be remitted to the Purchaser’s account no later than 11:00 a.m. (Central time) to the extent required to fund any Aggregate Reduction on such Settlement Date and (ii) thereafter be remitted from the Servicer to Seller on such Settlement Date.

Section 2.3 Collections Following Amortization. On the Amortization Date and on each day thereafter, the Servicer shall set aside and hold in trust, for the holder of each Purchaser Interest, all Collections and Deemed Collections received on such day (together with all Collections and Deemed Collections then held in trust pursuant to Section 2.2 or this Section 2.3). On and after the Amortization Date, the Servicer shall, at any time upon the request from time to time by (or pursuant to standing instructions from) the Agent (i) remit to the Agent’s account the amounts set aside pursuant to the preceding sentence, and (ii) apply such amounts to reduce the Capital associated with each such Purchaser Interest and any other Aggregate Unpaids until such time as the Aggregate Unpaids are reduced to zero.

Section 2.4 Application of Collections. If there shall be insufficient funds on deposit for the Servicer to distribute funds in payment in full of the aforementioned amounts pursuant to Section 2.2 or 2.3 (as applicable), the Servicer shall distribute funds:

first, (i) if AIL or one of its Affiliates is then the Servicer and no Amortization Event or Potential Amortization Event shall have occurred and then be continuing, to the payment of the accrued and unpaid Servicing Fee, and (ii) if neither AIL nor any of its Affiliates is then the Servicer, to the payment of the Servicer’s reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses in connection with servicing, administering and collecting the Receivables,

second, to the reimbursement of the Purchaser’s costs of collection and enforcement of this Agreement,

third, to the ratable payment of all accrued and unpaid (i) fees under the fee letter between Seller and Purchaser and (ii) amounts payable under Article VIII,

fourth, to the ratable payment of all other unpaid Obligations, provided that to the extent such Obligations relate to the payment of Servicer costs and expenses when Seller or one of its Affiliates is acting as the Servicer, such costs and expenses will not be paid until after the payment in full of all other Obligations,

fifth, (if applicable) in reduction of Capital of the Purchaser Interests,

sixth, to the payment of any accrued and unpaid Servicing Fee (unless such fee shall have been paid in accordance with first above), and

seventh, after the Aggregate Unpaids have been indefeasibly reduced to zero, to Seller.

Collections applied to the payment of Aggregate Unpaids shall be distributed in accordance with the aforementioned provisions.

Section 2.5 Payment Rescission. No payment of any of the Aggregate Unpaids shall be considered paid or applied hereunder to the extent that, at any time, all or any portion of such payment or application is rescinded by application of law or judicial authority, or must otherwise be returned or refunded for any reason. Seller shall remain obligated for the amount of any

payment or application so rescinded, returned or refunded, and shall promptly pay to the Purchaser (for application to the Person or Persons who suffered such rescission, return or refund) the full amount thereof, plus the Default Fee from the date of any such rescission, return or refunding.

Section 2.6 Aggregate Purchaser Interest. Seller shall ensure that the Purchaser Interests of the Purchaser shall at no time exceed in the aggregate 100%. If the aggregate of the Purchaser Interests of the Purchaser exceeds 100%, Seller shall immediately pay to the Purchaser an amount to be applied to reduce the Capital of the Purchaser Interests, such that after giving effect to such payment the aggregate of the Purchaser Interests equals or is less than 100%.

Section 2.7 Application of Collections in respect of Premium Interest. Upon receipt by the Servicer, for the benefit of the Purchaser, of any amount in immediately available funds constituting a portion of any Premium, the Servicer is instructed, unless and until otherwise directed by the Purchaser, to apply such amount toward a reduction in the Outstanding Balance of the related Receivable, such application (a “Premium Application”) to be based upon such information as may then be available to the Servicer and as may be determined by the Servicer to be true, accurate and correct in respect of the Outstanding Balance of such Receivable and the commissions then owing to the Obligor on such Receivable and arising by reason of the receipt by AIL of such Premium. Upon and to the extent of any Premium Application in accordance with the foregoing, (i) the Purchaser waives any subrogation rights arising by statute or otherwise in respect of any commissions due from AIL to the Obligor on the affected Receivable, (ii) the Servicer shall be permitted to provide AIL and the Seller such evidence as AIL and the Seller may reasonably request to the effect that, by reason of such Premium Application, the affected Obligor shall have received the economic benefit of payment to it of any commission due in connection with the receipt by AIL of the related Premium and (iii) the obligation of a Torchmark Entity under the second sentence of Section 5.1(j) to remit to the Servicer an amount calculated in reference to the corresponding commission payable to such Obligor shall be deemed satisfied. This Section 2.7 merely sets forth the anticipated accounting as among AIL, the Seller, and the Purchaser in relation to any Premium (or portion thereof) remitted to the Servicer for the benefit of the Purchaser. Nothing contained herein or otherwise in this Agreement shall give rise to, or be deemed to be an assumption of, any obligation or liability on the part of the Purchaser, or any of its successors or assigns, to pay any commission, fee or other remuneration, cost or expense to any Obligor or any member of any Agent-Hierarchy in connection with the receipt or application by AIL or any other Person of any Premium or any other aspect of the arrangements in effect from time to time between AIL and any such Obligor or Agent-Hierarchy.

Each Torchmark Entity’s Federal Employer Identification Number is correctly set forth on Exhibit III.

(l) Collections. The conditions and requirements set forth in Section 5.1(j) and in subsections (b), (c) and (e) of Section 6.2 have at all times been satisfied and duly performed.

(m) Material Adverse Effect. (i) The initial Servicer represents and warrants that since December 31, 2008 no event has occurred that would have a material adverse effect on the financial condition or operations of the initial Servicer and its Subsidiaries or the ability of the initial Servicer to perform its obligations under this Agreement and (ii) Seller represents and warrants

that since the date of this Agreement, no event has occurred that would have a material adverse effect on (A) the financial condition or operations of Seller, (B) the ability of Seller to perform its obligations under this Agreement, or (C) the collectability of the Receivables or Related Security generally or of any material portion of the Receivables or Related Security.

(n) Names. In the past five (5) years, (i) Seller has not used any corporate names, trade names or assumed names other than the name in which it has executed this Agreement and (ii) AIL has not used any corporate names, trade names or assumed names other than as disclosed on Exhibit III hereto.

(o) Ownership of Torchmark Entities. Torchmark owns, directly or indirectly, 100% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of each of AIL and Seller, in each case, free and clear of any Adverse Claim. AIL owns directly 100% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Seller, free and clear of any Adverse Claim. Such capital stock in each case is validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, and there are no options, warrants or other rights to acquire securities of Seller.

(p) Not a Holding Company or an Investment Company. No Torchmark Entity is (i) a “holding company” or a “subsidiary holding company” of a “holding company” within the meaning of the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935, as amended, or any successor statute or (ii) an “investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, or any successor statute.

(q) Compliance with Law. Each Torchmark Entity has complied in all material respects with all applicable laws, rules, regulations, orders, writs, judgments, injunctions, decrees or awards to which it may be subject. Each Receivable, together with the Contract related thereto, does not contravene any laws, rules or regulations applicable thereto (including, without limitation, laws, rules and regulations relating to truth in lending, fair credit billing, fair credit reporting, equal credit opportunity, fair debt collection practices and privacy), and no part of such Contract is in violation of any such law, rule or regulation with respect to which any noncompliance, separately or in the aggregate, is reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(r) Compliance with Credit and Collection Policy. AIL and Seller have complied in all material respects with the Credit and Collection Policy with regard to each Receivable and the related Contract, and neither AIL nor Seller has made any change to the Credit and Collection Policy, except such material change as to which the Agent has been notified in accordance with Section 5.1(a)(v).

(s) Payments to AIL. With respect to each Receivable transferred to Seller under the Receivables Sale Agreement, Seller has given reasonably equivalent value to AIL in consideration therefor and such transfer was not made for or on account of an antecedent debt. No transfer by AIL of any Receivable under the Receivables Sale Agreement is or may be voidable under any section of the Bankruptcy Reform Act of 1978 (11 U.S.C. §§ 101 et seq.), as amended.

(t) Enforceability of Contracts. Each Contract with respect to each Receivable is effective to create, and has created, a legal, valid and binding obligation of the related Obligor (including each Obligor, whether a member of an Agent-Hierarchy or otherwise, which is a guarantor of such Receivable) to pay the Outstanding Balance of the Receivable created thereunder and any accrued interest thereon, enforceable against such Obligor in accordance with its terms, except as such enforcement may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar laws relating to or limiting creditors’ rights generally and by general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity or at law).

(u) Eligible Receivables. Each Receivable included in the Net Receivables Balance as an Eligible Receivable was on the date of its purchase under the Receivables Sale Agreement an Eligible Receivable.

(v) Net Receivables Balance. The Seller has determined that, immediately after giving effect to each purchase hereunder, the Net Receivables Balance is at least equal to the aggregate Capital of all the Purchaser Interests.

(w) Accounting. The manner in which each Torchmark Entity accounts for the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Receivables Sale Agreement does not jeopardize the true sale analysis.

(x) Compliance with Underwriting Guidelines. AIL has complied in all material respects with its underwriting guidelines in issuing or agreeing to issue each Insurance Product in connection with which a Receivable shall have arisen, and in electing to extend the credit represented by such Receivable to the applicable Obligor, and AIL has not made any material change to such underwriting guidelines except such change as to which the Agent has been notified in accordance with Section 5.1(a)(v).

(y) Compliance with Representations. On and as of the date of each purchase of a Purchaser Interest hereunder and the date of each Reinvestment hereunder, each Seller Party hereby represents and warrants that all of the other representations and warranties made by it set forth in this Section 3.1 are true and correct on and as of the date of such purchase or Reinvestment (and after giving effect to such purchase or Reinvestment) as though made on and as of each such date.

Section 3.2 Purchaser Representations and Warranties. Purchaser hereby represents and warrants to the Seller Parties that:

(a) Existence and Power. Purchaser is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation or organization, and has all corporate power to perform its obligations hereunder.

(b) No Conflict. The execution and delivery by Purchaser of this Agreement and the performance of its obligations hereunder are within its corporate powers, have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action, do not contravene or violate (i) its certificate or articles of incorporation or association or by-laws, (ii) any law, rule or regulation applicable to it, (iii) any

restrictions under any agreement, contract or instrument to which it is a party or any of its property is bound, or (iv) any order, writ, judgment, award, injunction or decree binding on or affecting it or its property, and do not result in the creation or imposition of any Adverse Claim on its assets. This Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Purchaser.

(c) Governmental Authorization. No authorization or approval or other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any governmental authority or regulatory body is required for the due execution and delivery by the Purchaser of this Agreement and the performance of its obligations hereunder.

(d) Binding Effect. This Agreement constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Purchaser enforceable against the Purchaser in accordance with its terms, except as such enforcement may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar laws relating to or limiting creditors’ rights generally and by general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity or at law).

(i) Purchasers’ Reliance.

(I) prepare its financial statements separately from those of each other Torchmark Entity and insure that any consolidated financial statements of the Torchmark Entities that include Seller and that are filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission or any other governmental agency have notes clearly stating that Seller is a separate corporate entity and that its assets will be available first and foremost to satisfy the claims of the creditors of Seller;

(J) except as herein specifically otherwise provided, maintain the funds or other assets of Seller separate from, and not commingled with, those of any other Torchmark Entity and only maintain bank accounts or other depository accounts to which the Seller alone is the account party, into which the Seller alone makes deposits and from which the Seller alone has the power to make withdrawals;

(M) maintain its corporate charter and other organizational documents in conformity with this Agreement, such that it does not amend, restate, supplement or otherwise modify its Certificate of Incorporation or By-laws in any respect that would impair its ability to comply with the terms or provisions of any of the Transaction Documents, including, without limitation, Section 5.1(i) of this Agreement;

(N) maintain the effectiveness of, and continue to perform under the Receivables Sale Agreement and each of the other Transaction Documents to which it is party, such that it does not amend, restate, supplement, cancel, terminate or otherwise modify the Receivables Sale Agreement or any other Transaction Document (whether or not Seller is party thereto), or give or permit any consent, waiver, directive or approval thereunder or in respect thereof or waive any default, action, omission or breach under the Receivables Sale Agreement or any other Transaction Document or otherwise grant any indulgence thereunder or in respect thereof, without (in each case) the prior written consent of the Purchaser;

(O) maintain its corporate separateness such that it does not merge or consolidate with or into, or convey, transfer, lease or otherwise dispose of (whether in one transaction or in a series of transactions, and except as otherwise contemplated herein) all or substantially all of its assets (whether now owned or hereafter acquired) to, or acquire all or substantially all of the assets of, any Person, nor at any time create, have, acquire, maintain or hold any interest in any Subsidiary; and

(P) maintain at all times the Required Capital Amount (as defined in the Receivables Sale Agreement) and refrain from making any dividend, distribution, redemption of capital stock or payment of any subordinated indebtedness which would cause the Required Capital Amount to cease to be so maintained.

(j) Collections. Such Seller Party shall direct each applicable Torchmark Entity to remit all Collections received by such Torchmark Entity directly to the Servicer for the benefit of the Purchaser. Immediately upon receipt by any Torchmark Entity of any premium payable by or on behalf of the Policy Holder or any other Person in respect of the Insurance Product that shall have given rise to any Receivable, such Torchmark Entity shall be required to remit to the Servicer an amount calculated in reference thereto that, in the ordinary course of business and in accordance with its customary practice, is then payable as a commission in respect of such Insurance Product to the Obligor on such Receivable and which but for the existence of such Receivable would be remitted to such Obligor. In the event any payments relating to Receivables are remitted directly to Seller or any Affiliate of Seller, Seller shall remit (or shall cause all such payments to be remitted) directly to the Servicer, and at all times prior to such remittance, Seller shall itself hold or, if applicable, shall cause such payments to be held in trust for the exclusive benefit of the Purchaser. Seller shall maintain exclusive ownership, dominion and control (subject to the terms of this Agreement) of each deposit account in which any Collections are held and shall not grant the right to take dominion and control of any such account except to the Purchaser on the demand of the Purchaser. At any time following the occurrence of an Amortization Event, the Purchaser may, at Seller’s sole cost and expense, direct Seller to notify, or to cause AIL to notify, the Obligors (including Obligors that are guarantors) of Receivables and all Policy Holders owing premiums in respect of which any Receivables shall have arisen of the ownership interests of the Purchaser under this Agreement and may also direct that payments of all amounts due or that become due under any or all Receivables or Related Security be made directly to the Purchaser (or its respective designee) or to a lockbox or collection account designated by the Purchaser.

(a) Name Change, Offices and Records. Such Seller Party will not change its name, identity or corporate structure (within the meaning of Section 9-402(7) of any applicable enactment of the UCC) or relocate its chief executive office or any office where Records are kept unless it shall have: (i) given the Purchaser at least forty-five (45) days’ prior written notice thereof and (ii) delivered to the Purchaser all financing statements, instruments and other documents requested by the Purchaser in connection with such change or relocation.

(b) Change in Payment Instructions to Obligors. Such Seller Party will not make any change in the instructions to Obligors regarding payments to be made on any Receivable without the prior written consent of the Purchaser.

(c) Modifications to Contracts and Credit and Collection Policy. Such Seller Party will not make (or permit AIL to make) any change to the Credit and Collection Policy that could adversely affect the collectability of the Receivables or decrease the credit quality of any newly created Receivables. Except as provided in Section 6.2(d), the Servicer will not, and will not extend, amend or otherwise modify the terms of any Receivable or any Contract related thereto other than in accordance with the Credit and Collection Policy.

(d) Sales, Liens. Seller shall not sell, assign (by operation of law or otherwise) or otherwise dispose of, or grant any option with respect to, or create or suffer to exist any Adverse Claim upon (including, without limitation, the filing of any financing statement) or with respect to, any Receivable, Related Security or Collections, or upon or with respect to any Contract under which any Receivable arises, or any deposit account in which Collections may be held, or assign any right to receive income with respect thereto (other than, in each case, the creation of the interests therein in favor of the Purchaser provided for herein), and Seller shall defend the right, title and interest of the Purchaser in, to and under any of the foregoing property, against all claims of third parties claiming through or under Seller or AIL.

(e) Net Receivables Balance. At no time prior to the Amortization Date shall Seller permit the Net Receivables Balance to be less than the aggregate Capital of all the Purchaser Interests at such time.

Seller shall not designate or permit the designation of an Amortization Date (as defined in the Receivables Sale Agreement), or send any written notice to AIL in respect thereof, without the prior written consent of the Purchaser, except with respect to the occurrence of such Amortization Date arising pursuant to Section 5.1(d) of the Receivables Sale Agreement.

(g) Change in Subordinated Note. Seller shall not amend, modify (by course of conduct or otherwise) or terminate the Subordinated Note without the prior written consent of the Purchaser.

Section 5.3 Covenants Relating to Premium Interest. As contemplated in the definition herein of “Related Security”, each Purchaser Interest shall include, without limitation, an undivided percentage ownership interest in each Premium Interest. In that regard, until the date on which Aggregate Unpaids shall have been indefeasibly paid in full and this Agreement terminated in accordance with its terms, each Seller Party hereby covenants that:

(a) Recordkeeping of Premium Interest. It shall (or shall cause the applicable Torchmark Entity to) maintain at all times recordkeeping systems such that (i) at the time an application for an Insurance Product is submitted by an Obligor, and such Torchmark Entity shall have accepted such application and agreed to issue the requested Insurance Product, a notation is encoded or

otherwise made on its books and records identifying the commission and any similar fee that, in accordance with arrangements then existing between the Torchmark Entities and such Obligor and its Agent-Hierarchy, shall be payable to such Obligor or to any member of such Obligor’s Agent-Hierarchy upon or in connection with the subsequent receipt by a Torchmark Entity of any Premium relating to such Insurance Product, and (ii) at the time any Premium relating to such Insurance Product is remitted by the applicable Policy Holder, the applicable Torchmark Entity shall be capable of immediately identifying the amount of the commission payable to the applicable Obligor and its Agent-Hierarchy.

(b) Remittance of Premium Interest. In accordance with Section 5.1(j), it shall (or shall cause the applicable Torchmark Entity to), immediately upon receipt of any Premium which is subject to a Premium Interest, remit to the Servicer that portion of such Premium equal to the Premium Interest therein. The Seller represents and warrants that the Purchaser shall have a first priority ownership interest in each Premium Interest, free and clear of any Adverse Claim, including, without limitation, any claim of any Policy Holder, any Obligor and any member of an Agent-Hierarchy.

(c) Opinions. It shall cause to be delivered to the Purchaser, not less frequently than once each year, an opinion of Indiana insurance counsel (an “Indiana Regulatory Opinion”) substantially in the form of Exhibit IX hereto. In the event there shall at any time be (i) a change in or in the interpretation of any law, rule or regulation relating to any Torchmark Entity which, in the reasonable judgment of the Purchaser, brings into question the continuing validity of any of the legal conclusions stated in any Indiana Regulatory Opinion theretofore rendered to the Purchaser in connection with this Agreement, or (ii) a material change in the staff of the Indiana Department of Insurance or any similar or successor agency having any oversight of any Torchmark Entity or the conduct of its business (the “Insurance Regulatory Agency”), the Purchaser may request that, prior to the issuance of any Indiana Regulatory Opinion, the law firm rendering such opinion shall confer with the Insurance Regulatory Agency and seek confirmation that the legal conclusions to be stated in such Indiana Regulatory Opinion continue to be supported by the Insurance Regulatory Agency.

Notwithstanding the calculation of any Premium Interest in reference to the commissions payable to any Obligor or its Agent-Hierarchy, the transfer to the Purchaser hereunder of any Premium Interest shall constitute the transfer of an asset of the Seller (which it shall have acquired from AIL), and the Purchaser assumes no obligation or liability to make any payment to any Obligor or its Agent-Hierarchy in respect of any commission or similar payment due to such Obligor or Agent-Hierarchy. Any such obligation to pay any commission or similar fee to any Obligor or Agent-Hierarchy shall be and remain an obligation or AIL.

provided, however, that nothing contained in this sentence shall limit the liability of any Seller Party or limit the recourse of the Purchaser to any Seller Party for amounts otherwise specifically provided to be paid by such Seller Party under the terms of this Agreement.

(v) any dispute, claim, offset or defense (other than discharge in bankruptcy of the Obligor) of the Obligor to the payment of any Receivable (including, without limitation, a defense based on such Receivable or the related Contract not being a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Obligor enforceable against it in accordance with its terms), or any other claim resulting from the sale of the merchandise or service related to such Receivable or the furnishing or failure to furnish such merchandise or services;

(vi) the commingling of Collections of Receivables at any time with other funds;

(vii) any investigation, litigation or proceeding related to or arising from this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, the transactions contemplated hereby, the use of the proceeds of a purchase, the ownership of the Purchaser Interests or any other investigation, litigation or proceeding relating to any Torchmark Entity in which any Indemnified Party becomes involved as a result of any of the transactions contemplated hereby;

(viii) any inability to litigate any claim against any Obligor in respect of any Receivable as a result of such Obligor being immune from civil and commercial law and suit on the grounds of sovereignty or otherwise from any legal action, suit or proceeding;

(xii) the failure to have filed, or any delay in filing, financing statements or other similar instruments or documents under the UCC of any applicable jurisdiction or other applicable laws with respect to any Receivable, the Related Security and Collections with respect thereto, and the proceeds of any thereof, whether at the time of any Incremental Purchase or Reinvestment or at any subsequent time;

(xiii) any action or omission by any Torchmark Entity which reduces or impairs the rights of the Purchaser with respect to any Receivable or the value of any such Receivable;

(xiv) any action or omission by any Insurance Agent or any member of an Agent-Hierarchy which (A) reduces or impairs the rights of the Purchaser with respect to any Receivable or the value of any such Receivable and (B) does not entail the commencement by such Insurance Agent or member of any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding or any other action or omission (including any failure to pay) by reason of the lack of creditworthiness or ability to pay on the part of such Insurance Agent or Agent-Hierarchy; and

(xv) any attempt by any Person to void any Incremental Purchase or Reinvestment hereunder under statutory provisions or common law or equitable action.

Section 10.9 Integration; Binding Effect; Survival of Terms.

(a) This Agreement contains the final and complete integration of all prior expressions by the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and shall constitute the entire agreement among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof superseding all prior oral or written understandings.

(b) This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns (including any trustee in bankruptcy). This Agreement shall create and constitute the continuing obligations of the parties hereto in accordance with its terms and shall remain in full force and effect until terminated in accordance with its terms; provided, however, that the rights and remedies with respect to (i) any breach of any representation and warranty made by any Seller Party pursuant to Article III, and (ii) the indemnification and payment provisions of Article VIII, and Section 10.4 shall be continuing and shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

Section 10.10 Counterparts; Severability; Section References. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which when taken together shall constitute one and the same Agreement. Any provisions of this Agreement which are prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not

invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. Unless otherwise expressly indicated, all references herein to “Article,” “Section,” “Schedule” or “Exhibit” shall mean articles and sections of, and schedules and exhibits to, this Agreement.

Section 10.11 Characterization. (a) It is the intention of the parties hereto that each purchase of a Purchaser Interest hereunder shall constitute and be treated as an absolute and irrevocable sale, which purchase shall provide the Purchaser with the full benefits of ownership of the applicable Purchaser Interest. Except as specifically provided in this Agreement, each sale of a Purchaser Interest hereunder is made without recourse to Seller; provided, however, that (i) Seller shall be liable to Purchaser for all representations, warranties and covenants made by Seller pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and (ii) such sale does not constitute and is not intended to result in an assumption by the Purchaser or any assignee thereof of any obligation of Seller, AIL or any other person arising in connection with the Receivables, the Related Security, or the related Contracts, or any other obligations of Seller or AIL.

(b) In addition to any ownership interest which the Purchaser may from time to time acquire pursuant hereto, the Seller hereby grants to the Purchaser a valid and perfected security interest in all of Seller’s right, title and interest in, to and under all Receivables now existing or hereafter arising, the Collections, all Related Security, all other rights and payments relating to such Receivables, all of Seller’s rights under the Receivables Sale Agreement and all proceeds of any of the foregoing prior to all other liens on and security interests therein to secure the prompt and complete payment of the Aggregate Unpaids. After an Amortization Event, the Purchaser shall have, in addition to the rights and remedies that it may have under this Agreement, all other rights and remedies provided to a secured creditor after default under the UCC and other applicable law, which rights and remedies shall be cumulative.
