benefits covered under this Agreement shall be issued in accordance
with its normal practices in effect when the Reinsured Plan is

forth in Article XXII, Execution and ends after all Reinsured Plans
reinsured have been terminated or recaptured, as set forth in
Article XVI, Recapture.

under the Reinsured Plans reinsured and may exceed the Reinsured's
contractual liability under the terms of the Reinsured Plans as
described in Paragraph 3, Article XIII, General Provisions.
3. For a Reinsured Plan or rider reinsured under this Agreement: (i)

under each corresponding Reinsured Plan or any application or
conditional receipt therefor; and (ii) the liability of the
Reinsured for Reinsurance Premiums under this Agreement shall begin
as of the Policy Date of the reinsured policy or as of the

liability under this Paragraph.

parties. Also included will be any adjustments made necessary by
changes in reinsurance effective during the previous quarter, or
changes due to any agreed upon errors on a previous report. Payment

the quarterly report.

interest on premiums received, net transfers, mortality and expense
charges, and asset based allowances as shown in Schedule E1, and
interest on commission and expense allowances, and interest on
benefits from the Fixed Account, as shown in Schedule D1 accruing
from the fifteenth (15th) of every month to the settlement date.

named on the Schedules D1 and E1. Interest will be earned from the
fifteenth (15th) of the month named on Schedules D1 and E1 to the
next following settlement date.
IV. THE AMOUNT REINSURED

supplementary benefits or endorsements attached thereto, as
specified in Schedule A.

1. If any of the Reinsured Plans reinsured under this Agreement are

proportionately. Any policy change which affects the Death Benefit
Proceeds, such as a change in Option Type, a change in the policy's
Specified Amount, a change in the Face Amount of a rider, or an
addition or deletion of a rider, will result in a proportional
change in the Amount Reinsured. If the change affects the plan, the
amount of reinsurance, premiums, commissions or policy changes
under cession, the Reinsured shall inform the Reinsurer in
subsequent Reinsurance Reports.
2. With regard to liability of the Reinsured under the terms of an
application for a policy or rider to be reinsured under this
Agreement or under the terms of a conditional receipt issued in

be recalculated and reported under this Agreement in or for the
quarter in which the policy change occurs. For this purpose, such

this Agreement.
8. Such Letter(s) of Credit shall be promptly issued and delivered to

Reinsured Plan. With or immediately following such notice, the
Reinsured shall furnish Reinsurer with copies of written materials
relating to such claim. Reinsurer shall promptly notify Reinsured
of its decision whether or not to accept any such action. If
Reinsurer declines to accept any such action, it will pay the full
Amount Reinsured, as if there had been no such contest, compromise
or litigation, and will be fully discharged as of the date of such
payment from any further liability on that claim under Paragraph 5
of this Article. If the Reinsurer accepts such action, then: (i)
Reinsurer shall continue to share in the covered claim expenses as
described in Paragraph 5; (ii) the Reinsured shall keep the
Reinsurer informed of the status of any legal proceeding or
settlement negotiations in connection with such claim; and (iii) if
the contest or compromise reduces the amount of the Reinsured's
liability, the Reinsurer's liability shall be reduced to its quota
share percentage of the reduced amount.
7. Recovery from Third Party. The Reinsured shall promptly notify
Reinsurer if the Reinsured should assert or bring a claim or action
against a third party for contribution, indemnification or similar
grounds to recover from the third party any monies paid or expenses

reinsured under this Agreement. Upon request, the Reinsured shall
furnish Reinsurer with copies of written materials relating to such

any monies so recovered by the Reinsured. If the Reinsurer accepts
such action, then the Reinsurer shall continue to share in the
expenses of that proceeding and the Reinsurer shall share in any
monies recovered by the Reinsured. The Reinsured shall keep the
Reinsurer informed of the status of such proceeding or settlement
negotiations in connection with such proceeding.

12
8. Adjustments for Misstatements. If the amount claimed as death
benefit under a reinsured policy or reinsured rider is increased or
reduced because of a misstatement of age, sex or smoker status, the
Reinsured Amount will be calculated based on the adjusted amount of
death benefit and the Amount Reinsured will, if applicable, be
increased or decreased proportionately.
9. Interest. If the Reinsured pays interest on a claim, Reinsurer
agrees to pay the interest on the Amount Reinsured computed at the
same rate and for the same period as that paid by the Reinsured,
but in no event later than the date the claim is finally
adjudicated by the Reinsured.
10. Statutory Penalties. If the Reinsured is required to pay penalties
or interest imposed automatically by statute, other than penalties
or interest arising from Reinsured's negligent or intentional
violation of such a statute, Reinsurer shall indemnify the
Reinsured for the quota share percentage of such penalties and
interest.
11. Terminal Illness Accelerated Death Benefit Rider. The Reinsurer
shall participate in any claim under any Terminal Illness
Accelerated Death Benefit Rider in connection with the Reinsured
Plans. A claim for accelerated death benefits shall be treated
under this Agreement as though it were a death claim and as though
the death occurred on the date the claim was made. If the claimant
elects to take less than 100% of the benefit under the Terminal
Illness Accelerated Death Benefit Rider and the reinsured policy
thereby remains in force, then the Reinsurer shall pay the
Reinsured for the Terminal Illness Accelerated Death Benefit Rider
an amount equal to the accelerated percentage elected by the
claimant multiplied by the present value, calculated in accordance
with the rider form, of the Amount Reinsured; and the reduced
Amount Reinsured for the policy shall be equal to the original
Amount Reinsured reduced by the same percentage used to calculate
the benefits paid under the Terminal Illness Accelerated Death
Benefit Rider.
XIII. GENERAL PROVISIONS
1. Parties to Agreement. This Agreement is a contract solely between
the Reinsurer and the Reinsured. The acceptance of reinsurance
hereunder shall not create any right or legal relation between the
Reinsurer and the insured, beneficiary, or any other party to any
Reinsured Plan hereunder.
2. Reinsurance Conditions. The reinsurance is subject to the same
limitations and conditions as the insurance under the Reinsured
Plan written by the Reinsured on which the coinsurance is based.

committed by the Reinsurer in connection with the reinsurance of

4. Oversights. If failure to pay any premium due or to perform any

the Reinsurer shall be restored to the position they would have
occupied had the misunderstanding, oversight or clerical error not
occurred.
5. Inspection. The Reinsured and the Reinsurer, their auditors and any
regulators having authority over the Reinsured and/or the

the Reinsurer assign any of its rights, duties or obligations under
this Agreement without the prior written approval of the other
party. Such approval shall not unreasonably be withheld.

between the Reinsurer and the Reinsured and supersedes any prior

binding. No modification or waiver of any provision of this
Agreement shall be effective unless set forth in written amendment

percentage of any other federal or state taxes or state guaranty

Agreement shall be payable by the Reinsurer directly to the
Reinsured or to its liquidator, receiver or statutory successor on

statutory successor), at the Reinsurer's own expense, in the
proceeding where such claim is to be adjudicated any defense or
defenses which it may deem available to the Reinsured or its
liquidator or receiver or statutory successor.
14
15
(b) It is further understood that the expenses thus incurred by the
Reinsurer shall be chargeable, subject to court approval, against
the insolvent Reinsured as part of the expense of liquidation to
the extent of a proportionate share of the benefit which may accrue
to the Reinsured solely as a result of the defense undertaken by
the Reinsurer. When two or more reinsurers are participating in the
same claim and a majority in interest elect to interpose a defense
or defenses to such claim, the expense shall be apportioned in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement as though such expense
had been incurred by the Reinsured.
12. Insolvency of the Reinsurer. The Reinsurer shall immediately give
the Reinsured written notice of an event constituting insolvence of
the Reinsurer. Upon the insolvency of the Reinsurer, whether notice
thereof was given by the Reinsurer or not, the Reinsured has the
right to immediately, by written notice, terminate this Agreement
and recapture all reinsurance under this Agreement. Notwithstanding
such termination or recapture, Reinsurer or its legal
representative shall continue to be liable to the Reinsured for any
obligations of the Reinsurer under this Agreement still outstanding
after giving effect to such recapture.
13. For the purpose of this Agreement, either the Reinsurer or the
Reinsured shall be deemed "insolvent" under the following
circumstances:
(a) when a cease and desist order or injunction has been issued by
the commissioner or a court of competent jurisdiction in its
state or jurisdiction of domicile ordering either party to
cease and desist from transacting, soliciting or writing any
new business of any kind and is reasonably expected to result
in conservatorship, rehabilitation, receivership, or
liquidation; or
(b) when a court of competent jurisdiction order is issued
voluntarily or involuntarily placing either party into
conservatorship, rehabilitation, receivership, or liquidation,
or appointing a conservator, rehabilitator, receiver or
liquidator to take over the business of either party; or
(c) when it files or consents to the filing of a petition in
bankruptcy, seeks reorganization or an arrangement with
creditors or takes advantage of any bankruptcy, dissolution,
liquidation or similar law or statute.
15
16
14. Offset. The Reinsurer and the Reinsured shall consider any balance
due and unpaid, matured or unmatured, liquidated or unliquidated,
regardless of when they arose or were incurred, whether on account
of premiums, allowances, policy charges, losses, claims expenses,
or any other amount in accordance with the terms of this Agreement,
or any other reinsurance agreement, due from one party to another
to be mutual debits or credits under this Agreement and shall be
offset and only the balance allowed or paid. If either the
Reinsured or Reinsurer is then under any formal insolvency
proceedings, this right of offset shall be subject to the laws of
the domiciliary jurisdiction of the then insolvent party.
15. Non-Guaranteed Charges, Benefits and Interest Rates. The Reinsured
agrees to manage the non-guaranteed charges, benefits, and interest
rates in a way that balances the interests of the owners, agents,
stockholders, contract owners, and the Reinsurer, while exercising
sound actuarial professional judgment. Any changes in the
non-guaranteed contract charges, benefits, and interest rates will
be accompanied by an actuarial report prepared in accordance with
the standards described in the Actuarial Standards of Practice No.
1, as Reformatted and Readopted in 1990 by the Actuarial Standards
Board. The actuarial report should disclose a description of the
framework within which the actuary's advice has been developed, a
description of the facts, methods, procedures and assumptions upon
which the advice was based, and the other information called for by
the Actuarial Standard of Practice No. 1. Should the Reinsurer
determine that the Reinsured has not balanced the interests of the
Reinsured with the interests of the Reinsurer and agreement cannot
be reached, any claims may be settled by arbitration in accordance
with Article XVII, Arbitration.
16. Investment Management Committee. The parties shall form an
Investment Management Committee consisting of one (1) member each
from the Reinsured and the Reinsurer. The Reinsured shall provide
the Reinsurer copies of its investment policies and crediting rate
strategies. The Reinsurer shall provide the Reinsured its
investment policies. If either party changes its investment
policies or crediting rate strategies, it shall promptly provide
the other party a copy of such changes. The purpose and function of
the Investment Management Committee shall be to recommend crediting
rates to the Reinsured for approval in accordance with the
provision set forth in Exhibit C, Guidelines for Crediting Rates.
17. Forms and Manuals. The Reinsured agrees to make available to the
Reinsurer copies of all appropriate policy forms, prospectuses,
application forms, and other related material. If new material is
published, or changes are made in the material already filed, the
Reinsured agrees to promptly provide the Reinsurer with copies of
such material.
18. Headings. The headings of the Articles, Paragraphs and any
subparagraphs and Schedules of this Agreement are inserted for
convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part of
this Agreement.
16
17
19. Definitions. Any defined term used in this Agreement shall have the
meaning ascribed to it in this Article. Any term not defined in
this Agreement which is in general usage in the life reinsurance
industry shall be given the same meaning as such general usage
ascribes to that term, giving due consideration to the context in
which the term is used in this Agreement.
XIV. REINSTALLMENTS
1. Should a Reinsured Plan lapse and subsequently be reinstated in
accordance with its terms and the normal rules of the Reinsured,
the reinsurance shall be reinstated automatically.
XV. POLICY CHANGES
1. Should the Reinsured make any material changes (including but not
limited to a change in Face Amount, Specified Amount or Rating
Classification) in the provisions and conditions of a Reinsured
Plan issued to an insured and upon which reinsurance shall have
been granted hereunder, the Reinsured shall reflect such policy
changes, as appropriate, in the monthly reports called for in
Article VIII, Reporting.
2. The Reinsured agrees to notify the Reinsurer in writing of any
anticipated material changes in the terms and conditions of the
Reinsured Plans.
XVI. RECAPTURE
1. Business reinsured under this Agreement will not be eligible for
recapture, except the Reinsured reserves the right to recapture any
business that has been enforce thirty-five (35) years after the
policy issue date. Furthermore, should a state regulatory body rule
that this Agreement is not valid for any reason, and there is no
remedial action available to correct the situation, the Reinsured
reserves the right to recapture that portion of the business that
was reinsured. Any adjustment in values as a result of recapture
will be agreed upon at the time of the recapture. If agreement
cannot be reached, any claims will be settled in accordance with
the provision of Article XVII, Arbitration.
XVII. ARBITRATION
1. Any controversy or claim between the Reinsured and the Reinsurer,
arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the breach thereof
or the coverage of this arbitration provision, shall be settled by
arbitration.
17
18
2. There shall be three (3) arbitrators who shall be current or former
officers of life insurance companies or life reinsurers. However,
unless otherwise consented to in writing by the parties, such
person shall not be a current or former employee of, or current or
former consultant to, the parties or any affiliate or reinsurer of
the parties; nor shall he or she have any current employment or
affiliation with, consulting or contractual engagement with, or
financial interest in: a party to this Agreement or persons or
companies affiliated or associated with a party to this Agreement.
The Reinsured shall appoint one of the arbitrators and the
Reinsurer shall appoint a second arbitrator and these two
arbitrators shall select the third. If either party shall fail to
appoint an arbitrator within thirty (30) days after the other party
has given notice of its appointment of an arbitrator, the
appointment of the arbitrator for the party which has so failed to
appoint an arbitrator shall be left to the other party. Should the
two arbitrators appointed by or for the parties fail to agree on
the choice of the third, within sixty (60) days of their
appointment then each of them shall name three (3) individuals, of
whom the other shall decline two (2), and the decision shall be
made by drawing lots.
3. Arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the Commercial
Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association which
shall be in effect on the date of delivery of demand for
arbitration; except, however, that arbitrators shall be appointed
in accordance with the provisions of Paragraph 2 of this Article
and that, to the extent any other terms or provisions of this
Article are inconsistent with or in conflict with the Commercial
Arbitration Rules, this Article shall control.
4. The arbitration shall be conducted in a location to be determined
by a majority of the Arbitrators.
5. The Reinsured and the Reinsurer shall each pay that part of the
expense of arbitration which shall be apportioned to it by the
arbitrators.
6. The award rendered by the arbitrators shall be final, and judgment
may be entered upon it in any court having jurisdiction thereof.
7. The Arbitrators shall base their decision on the terms and
conditions of this Agreement and, as necessary, on the customs and
practices of the life reinsurance and life insurance industries
rather than on a strict interpretation of applicable law.
XVIII. IMPROPER SOLICITATION OF REINSURED PLAN OWNERS
1. Neither party, nor any affiliate thereof, shall contact or
authorize any other person to contact owners of the Reinsured Plans
for the purpose of soliciting surrender of the Reinsured Plans,
conversion of the Reinsured Plans to another form of insurance,
making policy loans or withdrawals without prior written approval
of the other party.

consistency or as otherwise required by the Internal Revenue
Service.

each year, of its calculation of the net consideration for the
preceding calendar year. This schedule of calculations will be
accompanied by a statement signed by an officer of the Reinsured
stating that the Reinsured will report such net consideration on
its tax return for the preceding calendar year.
8. The Reinsurer may contest such calculation by providing an
alternative calculation to the Reinsured in writing within thirty
(30) days of the Reinsurer's receipt of the Reinsured's
calculation. If the Reinsurer does not so notify the Reinsured, the
Reinsurer will report the net consideration as determined by the
Reinsured in the Reinsurer's tax return for the previous calendar
year.
If the Reinsurer contests the Reinsured's calculation of the net
consideration, the parties will act in good faith to reach an
agreement as to the correct amount within thirty (30) days of the

consideration, each party shall report such amount in their
respective tax returns for the previous calendar year.

EXHIBIT C
GUIDELINES FOR CREDITING RATES
The Investment Management Committee adopts the following guidelines for
recommending crediting rates:
1. In each quarter, the Investment Management Committee will present
its recommended crediting rates for the following quarter to the
Reinsured for approval. In recommending such rates, the Investment
Management Committee shall consider the expected earned rate for the
quarter (the reinsured portion of which will be provided by the
Reinsurer), the assumed pricing spread, and any potential adverse
impact which rate changes may have on the persistency of the block of
business.
2. It is expected the Investment Management Committee and the reinsured
will be able to reach agreement. However, if the Investment Management
Committee and the reinsured are unable to reach agreement, the
Reinsured may establish the renewal crediting rates.
3. Should the ownership of the Reinsured change from that which existed
at the inception of this Agreement, or should the total amount of the
Fixed Account premiums ceded to any one reinsurer exceed the Fixed
Account premiums retained for the Reinsured Plans for any quarter, the
Reinsured may not set a crediting rate that exceeds the rate in effect
at the time of the change in ownership or retention for three years
from that change.

Schedule B1
AMOUNT OF REINSURANCE
The amount of reinsurance under this Agreement shall be the Reinsurer's quota
share percentage shown below of the liability of the Reinsured on all Reinsured
Plans in the forms listed in Schedule A, Business Reinsured.
Quota Share Percentages for Issue Dates in 1998: For issue dates in 1998, the
quota share percentage will be 20%.
Quota Share Percentages for Issue Dates in 1999 and later: The Reinsurer and the
Reinsured will jointly determine the quota share percentages no later than
December 1st applicable to new issues in the following calendar year. The
determining factors for the quota share percentage are the expected WMA Total
Flexible Premium Variable Life First Year Target Premiums Collected by the
Reinsured and the expected WMA Total Flexible Premium Variable Life First Year
Target Premiums written with all insurance companies for the calendar year that
the quota share percentage will be applicable. This determination of the quota
share percentage will be on a mutually acceptable basis, recognizing the good
faith nature of this Agreement, and with references to the estimates made by
both parties, based on the prior periods' target premiums.
The Scheduled Quota Share Percentages for each threshold of expected WMA Total
Flexible Premium Variable Life First Year Target Premiums Collected by the
Reinsured are shown in the following table:
WMA TOTAL FLEXIBLE PREMIUM
VARIABLE LIFE FIRST YEAR TARGET SCHEDULED
PREMIUMS COLLECTED QUOTA SHARE
BY THE REINSURED (IN MILLIONS) PERCENTAGE
$ 50-149 20%
$150-199 25%
$200-249 30%
$250-599 35%
$600+ 40%
For each threshold of expected WMA Total Flexible Premium Variable Life First
Year Target Premiums Collected by the Reinsured, a certain percentage of WMA
Total Flexible Premium Variable Life First Year Target Premiums is expected to
be collected by the Reinsured. The thresholds are as follows:
29
30
WMA TOTAL FLEXIBLE PREMIUM WRL'S SHARE OF MAXIMUM "OTHER
VARIABLE LIFE FIRST YEAR TARGET WMA'S INDIVIDUAL CARRIER'S" SHARE OF
PREMIUMS COLLECTED PRODUCTION WMA'S INDIVIDUAL
BY THE REINSURED (IN MILLIONS) PRODUCTION
$ 50-149 90% 10%
$150-199 85% 10%
$200-249 80% 10%
$250-349 75% 10%
$350-599 70% 10%
$600+ 70% 10%
The scheduled quota share percentages may be reduced if:
1. The percentage of expected WMA Total Flexible Premium Variable Life
First Year Target Premiums Collected by the Reinsured is less than the
Scheduled Percentage of expected WMA Total Flexible Premium Variable
Life First Year Target Premiums to be Collected by the Reinsured, and/or
2. The growth rate in expected WMA Total Flexible Premium Variable Life
First Year Target Premiums Collected by the Reinsured declines, as
measured by the financial reports of the Reinsured.
If the percentage of expected WMA Total Flexible Premium Variable Life First
Year Target Premiums Collected by the Reinsured to expected WMA Total Flexible
Premium Variable Life First Year Target Premiums Collected from all sources is
less than the Scheduled Percentage of expected WMA Total Flexible Premium
Variable Life First Year Target Premiums Collected by the Reinsured:
The quota share percentage may be reduced 5% for each full 10% reduction in the
Reinsured's Scheduled Percentage of expected WMA Total Flexible Premium Variable
Life First Year Target Premium Collected by the Reinsured, as estimated by WMA's
financial statements. As an example, if the expected WMA Total Flexible Premium
Variable Life First Year Target Premiums Collected by the Reinsured is $175
Million, but the $175 Million is only 75% of expected WMA Total Flexible Premium
Variable Life First Year Target Premiums, the quota share percentage may be
reduced from 25% to 20%.
