BASIS OF COINSURANCE AND BUSINESS COINSURED

Section 2.1. Reinsurance.

(a)Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Company

hereby cedes on a combination coinsurance/modified coinsurance basis or a combination coinsurance/coinsurance with funds withheld basis, as specified on Schedule 1.1(a), to the Reinsurer as of the Amendment Effective Time, and the Reinsurer hereby accepts and agrees to assume and indemnity reinsure on such basis as of the Amendment Effective Time, one hundred percent (100%) of all Reinsured Liabilities arising under or relating to the Covered Insurance Contracts; provided, however, that the Reinsurer’s portion of the Reinsured Liabilities shall never exceed the portion of such liabilities assumed by the Company pursuant to the Covered Insurance Contracts. This Agreement is an agreement for indemnity reinsurance solely between the Company and the Reinsurer and shall not create any legal relationship whatsoever between the Reinsurer and any Person other than the Company. The reinsurance effected under this Agreement shall be maintained in force, without reduction, unless such reinsurance is terminated or reduced as provided herein.

a.The parties hereto acknowledge that as of the Amendment Effective Time, SLD effected the SLD Recapture and accordingly the business ceded by the Company hereunder was subject to such recapture. As of the Amendment Effective Time, the accounting for the SLD Recapture as set forth in Schedule 2.1 was effected.

b.On and after the Amendment Effective Time, the Reinsurer has the responsibility for paying to or on behalf of the Company, as and when due, all Reinsured Liabilities arising under or attributable to the Covered Insurance Contracts.

c.Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Original Treaty (A) shall remain in full force and effect with respect to the parties’ respective rights and obligations thereunder arising prior to the Amendment Effective Time. For the avoidance of doubt, (i)

Reinsured Liabilities not paid by the Reinsurer prior to the Amendment Effective Time are reinsured under the terms of Original Treaty (A) without giving effect to the SLD Recapture, and

(ii) neither party shall be required to pay any amount under this Agreement that it has paid pursuant to Original Treaty (A) or vice versa.

Section 2.2. Reinsurance Coverage. In no event shall the reinsurance provided hereunder with respect to a particular Covered Insurance Contract be in force and binding unless such Covered Insurance Contract was in force and binding as of the Original Effective Time; provided, however, that the Covered Insurance Contracts reinsured hereunder shall include (a) all lapsed or surrendered insurance contracts subject to the reinsurance hereunder, that are reinstated in accordance with their terms on and after the Original Effective Time and (b) all unexecuted Covered Insurance Contracts. Upon the reinstatement of any lapsed or surrendered policy included within Covered Insurance Contracts, such reinstated Covered Insurance Contract shall

be automatically reinsured hereunder, when, and to the extent that, the Company is liable under such reinstated Covered Insurance Contract.

Section 2.3. Reserves On and after the Amendment Effective Time, the Reinsurer shall establish and maintain as a liability on its Financial Statements, Reserves for the Covered Insurance Contracts ceded hereunder, calculated consistent with the reserve requirements and actuarial principles applicable to the Reinsurer under IFRS. The Reinsurer shall provide the Company, no later than one-hundred and eighty (180) calendar days after the end of each calendar year, with copies of all actuarial opinions and actuarial memoranda and all reserve evaluations pertaining to the Reserves for the Covered Insurance Contracts, including, without limitation, any actuarial opinions and reserve evaluations performed by independent actuaries, auditors or other outside consultants. The Company may, at its own cost at any time, upon reasonable notice to the Reinsurer following the Amendment Effective Time, examine the Books and Records, and any other books and records that would have been included in the Books and Records had they been in existence at the Amendment Effective Time, maintained by the Reinsurer in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, and review the Reinsurer’s reserve procedures, in each case as applicable to the Reinsured Liabilities. If as a result of such examination the Company believes that the Reserves are not consistent with the requirements of the first sentence of this Section 2.3 in all material respects, the Reinsurer shall, at the Company’s request and expense, obtain and deliver to the Company an actuarial opinion as to the adequacy of the Reserves for the Covered Insurance Contracts produced by an independent actuary reasonably acceptable to the Company. In the event that the actuarial opinion so rendered reasonably indicates a material inadequacy in the Reserves for the Covered Insurance Contracts, or in the Reinsurer’s reserve procedures, the Reinsurer shall promptly adjust the amount of the Reserves for the Covered Insurance Contracts, and implement appropriate changes to its procedures so as to avoid inadequacies in future periods; provided, however, the Reinsurer shall have the right to contest the findings of such actuarial opinion in accordance with the provisions of Article VII.

Section 2.4. Insurance Contract and Reserve Assumption Changes. The Company shall not change (a) the terms and conditions of any Covered Insurance Contracts or

(b)the assumptions and methods used to establish the reserves attributable to the Covered Insurance Contracts, except as required by applicable Law or with the consent of the Reinsurer (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), and, in the event such a change is required by applicable Law, the Company shall notify the Reinsurer promptly upon becoming aware of the requirement to effect any such change and provide the Reinsurer the opportunity to contest such requirement. The Reinsurer hereby consents to (i) the SLD Recapture and (ii) the amendments to the Covered Insurance Contracts set forth in Exhibit E.

Section 2.5. Reversal of SLD Recapture. In consideration for the Company’s agreement to amend and restate this Agreement as of the Amendment Effective Time, the Reinsurer agrees that, in the event SLD elects to recapture the liabilities ceded to HLRUS pursuant to Section 5.5(b) of the A&R 2013 SLD-HLRUS Reinsurance Agreement or elects to terminate the A&R 2013 SLD-HLRUS Reinsurance Agreement due to the HLRUS’s failure to pay pursuant to Section 10.1 thereof, the liabilities ceded thereunder will automatically, without any further action on the part of the Company or the Reinsurer, be re-ceded by SLD to the Company and, in the absence of any Recapture Triggering Event with respect and relating to the

Reinsurer unless such condition is waived by the Company, by the Company to the Reinsurer, and this Agreement shall be automatically amended, without any further action on the part of the Company or the Reinsurer, to the form that was in effect prior to the amendment and restatement reflected in the A&R Treaty (A); provided, however, that the provisions of the A&R Treaty (A) amended in the amendment and restatement of A&R Treaty (A) as of the Second Amendment Date shall be retained as applicable; provided, further, that in connection with such re-ceding, neither party shall be required to pay any amount under this Agreement that has been paid by HLRUS or SLD, as applicable, under the A&R 2013 SLD-HLRUS Reinsurance Agreement.

Also, the amounts allocated to the Funds Withheld Balance 1 and Modified Coinsurance Amount in connection with such a re-ceding, including any amounts transferred to ING Re Segregated Account from the Funds Withheld Account 3 pursuant to the A&R 2013 SLD-HLRUS Reinsurance Agreement, will be taken into account thereafter when determining the Modified Coinsurance Amount and Funds Withheld Balance 1. The Reinsurer hereby acknowledges that SLD may use the funds in Funds Withheld Account 3, as permitted under the A&R 2013 SLD- HLRUS Reinsurance Agreement, to top up the Funds Withheld Balance 1 and the Modified Coinsurance Amount for amounts due and owing under this Agreement upon a full recapture under the A&R 2013 SLD-HLRUS Reinsurance Agreement.

For the avoidance of doubt, the parties acknowledge and agree that the Company retains all right, title and interest to all Premiums and other amounts received with respect to the Covered Insurance Contracts, subject to its contractual obligations under this Agreement to pay corresponding amounts over to the Reinsurer in accordance with Section 3.2 of this Agreement.

iii.To the extent that the Company recovers amounts from any third party attributable to the Reinsured Liabilities and to periods beginning on or after the Amendment Effective Time (including, without limitation, Premiums in arrears from a policyholder or ceding

company with respect to a reinstated Covered Insurance Contract net of any amounts due to third parties with respect to such Reinsured Liabilities under Existing Reinsurance, litigation recoveries, and experience refunds, but excluding amounts recovered under Existing Reinsurance with respect to such Reinsured Liabilities), the Company shall transfer such amounts to the Reinsurer and provide the Reinsurer with any pertinent information that the Company may have relating thereto in accordance with Section 3.2 hereof.

Section 3.2. Settlement. During the term of this Agreement, a settlement amount between the Company and the Reinsurer as of the last day of each Accounting Period (the “Net Settlement”) shall be calculated by the Reinsurer in accordance with Exhibit D, and a statement setting forth such calculation (the “Settlement Statement”) shall be delivered by the Reinsurer to the Company within thirty (30) calendar days of the end of such Accounting Period in accordance with the Administrative Services Agreement. Subject to Section 3.5, if the amount of the Net Settlement for an Accounting Period is positive, the Company shall pay such amount to the Reinsurer within 5 Business Days of its receipt of the Settlement Statement for such Accounting Period.

Section 3.3. Modified Coinsurance; Funds Withheld.

(a)Modified Coinsurance.

(i)The Company shall retain, maintain, and own, or shall permit the ceding companies under SLD Treaty 2774 to retain, maintain, and own, assets in respect

ii.The Additional Amount may only be reduced by the Reinsurer upon at least sixty (60) days’ prior written notice to the Company and the Additional Amount may only be reduced following the end of such sixty (60)-day notice period. On the Business Day immediately following the end of any such sixty (60) day notice period, the Company shall arrange for the funds to be withdrawn from Funds Withheld Balance 2 and disperse to the Reinsurer an amount equal to the reduction in the Additional Amount pursuant to such notice.

iii.The Company and the Reinsurer agree that, notwithstanding the inclusion of any Additional Amount in Funds Withheld Balance 2, the Adjustment Factor used therein shall not exceed 1. The Company may in its sole discretion waive the requirement that the Adjustment Factor not exceed 1.

Section 3.4. Delayed Payments. If there is a delayed settlement of any payment due hereunder, interest will accrue on such payment at the 180-Day Treasury Rate then in effect until settlement is made. For purposes of this Section 3.4, a payment will be considered overdue, and such interest will begin to accrue, on the first day immediately following the date such payment is due. For greater clarity, (i) a payment shall be deemed to be due hereunder on the

last date on which such payment may be timely made under the applicable provision, and (ii) interest will not accrue on any payment due the Reinsurer hereunder unless the delayed settlement thereof was caused by the Company.

Section 3.5. Offset and Recoupment Rights. Any debits or credits incurred on and after the Trifurcation Effective Time in favor of or against either the Company or Reinsurer with respect to this Agreement, Reinsurance Agreement (B), or Reinsurance Agreement (C) or any other reinsurance agreements or trust agreements that are deemed mutual debits or credits, as the case may be, shall be set off and recouped, and only the net balance shall be allowed or paid. This Section 3.5 shall apply notwithstanding the existence of any insolvency, rehabilitation, conservatorship or comparable proceeding by or against the Company or the Reinsurer.

Section 3.6. Administration.

At the Reinsurer’s request, the Company shall provide the Reinsurer with its audited annual Financial Statements along with the audit report thereon, as well as any quarterly reports required to be filed by the Company.

Section 4.3. Security.

(a)Upon the occurrence of a Security Triggering Event, the Company shall have the right to require the Reinsurer to post security in an amount equal to the Security Amount. Not later than ten (10) Business Days following receipt by the Reinsurer of written notice from the Company requiring such security (the “Initial Security Amount Posting Date”),

the Reinsurer shall calculate the Security Amount, provide written notice of such calculation to the Company and post security in such amount. At the option of the Reinsurer, such security may take the form of either (x) a letter of credit issued by a bank, and in a form, reasonably acceptable to the Company naming the Company as beneficiary or (y) assets (complying with the investment guidelines attached to the ING Asset Management Services Agreement) deposited in a trust account established for the benefit of Company on terms reasonably acceptable to the Company and the Reinsurer. In connection with the foregoing, the Reinsurer shall take all actions as may be necessary or desirable, or that the Company may reasonably request, in order to grant the Company a security interest in any assets deposited in trust pursuant to the preceding sentence.

a.For each Accounting Period beginning after an Initial Security Amount Posting Date and prior to the related Security Amount Release Date, the Reinsurer shall calculate the Security Amount with respect to such Accounting Period and provide written notice of the calculation of the Security Amount to the Company (the “Security Amount Adjustment Notice”), not later than thirty (30) calendar days after the end of the prior Accounting Period (the “Security Amount Adjustment Date”). If the Security Amount is reduced as of any Security Amount Adjustment Date, then the excess portion of any letter of credit posted as security pursuant to this

Section 4.3 shall be cancelled or the excess portion of the assets deposited in a trust account as security pursuant to this Section 4.3 shall be returned to the Reinsurer, as the case may be, within two (2) Business Days of the delivery of the Security Amount Adjustment Notice to the Company. If the Security Amount is increased as of any Security Amount Adjustment Date, then the Reinsurer shall post the required additional security (in the form described in Section 4.3(a)) promptly upon delivery of the Security Amount Adjustment Notice to the Company.

b.The Company hereby agrees that it shall draw on any letter of credit posted in respect of a Security Triggering Event or withdraw assets on deposit in a trust account in respect of a Security Triggering Event only if, and to the extent that, the Reinsurer fails to timely pay any material amount due to the Company hereunder and such amount remains unpaid for thirty (30) calendar days after notice to the Reinsurer of such nonpayment. Any amount drawn on a letter of credit or paid from a trust account pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be deemed to satisfy the Reinsurer’s requirement to make such payment.

c.In the event that following a Security Triggering Event the insurer financial strength rating of the Reinsurer increases to at least “A-” by Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services, then any letter of credit posted in respect of such Security Triggering Event shall be surrendered and cancelled or any amount held in trust in respect of such Security Triggering Event shall be returned to the Reinsurer, as the case may be, within two (2) Business Days after the date upon which the Reinsurer provides to the Company notice of such ratings increase (the “Security Amount Release Date”).

d.The Company may contest the Reinsurer’s calculation of the Security Amount by providing an alternative calculation to the Reinsurer in writing within thirty (30) calendar days after the date on which the Company receives the Reinsurer’s calculation. If the Company contests the Reinsurer’s calculation of the Security Amount with respect to any Accounting Period, the parties shall act in good faith to reach an agreement as to the correct Security Amount for such Accounting Period within fifteen (15) calendar days after the date on

which the Company submits its alternative calculation. If the Company and the Reinsurer are unable to reach an agreement as to the calculation of the Security Amount during such period, the parties may submit the dispute regarding the calculation of the Security Amount for resolution to an independent third party actuary mutually acceptable to the Company and the Reinsurer (the “Independent Actuary”). Upon the selection of the Independent Actuary, and in any event within five (5) calendar days following such selection, the parties shall cause the Independent Actuary to review the calculation of the Security Amount and to deliver to the Reinsurer and the Company as promptly as practicable (but no later than thirty (30) calendar days after the commencement of the Independent Actuary’s review), a report setting forth the Independent Actuary’s calculation of the Security Amount. Such report shall also state the fees, costs and expenses of the Independent Actuary and indicate which of the parties shall bear such costs or in what percentage such costs shall be allocated to the parties. The Independent Actuary’s report shall be final and binding upon the Reinsurer and the Company.

a.The security required by this Section 4.3 shall be maintained separately for each of this Agreement, Reinsurance Agreement (B) and Reinsurance Agreement (C). The

Company shall reimburse the Reinsurer for any amount by which the cost of providing three separate forms of security exceeds that which the Reinsurer would have incurred to maintain a single form of security; provided, that the Reinsurer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize any such excess.

ARTICLE V

OVERSIGHTS; COOPERATION; REGULATORY MATTERS

Section 5.1. Oversights. Inadvertent delays, errors or omissions made in connection with this Agreement or any transaction hereunder shall not relieve either party from any liability which would have attached had such delay, error or omission not occurred, provided always that such error or omission is rectified as soon as possible after discovery, and provided, further, that the party making such error or omission or responsible for such delay shall be responsible for any additional liability which attaches as a result. If (a) the failure of either party to comply with any provision of this Agreement is unintentional or the result of a misunderstanding or oversight and (b) such failure to comply is promptly rectified, both parties shall be restored as closely as possible to the positions they would have occupied if no error or oversight had occurred.

Section 5.2. Cooperation. Each party hereto shall cooperate fully with the other in all reasonable respects in order to accomplish the objectives of this Agreement.

Section 5.3. Regulatory Matters.

ARTICLE VI DAC TAX

Section 6.1. DAC Tax.

(a)All uncapitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings set forth in the regulations under Section 848 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).

(b)The Reinsurer represents that it has made the election provided in section 953(d) of the Code to be subject to United States federal income tax. Each of the Company and the Reinsurer acknowledges that it is subject to taxation under Subchapter L of the Code and hereby makes the election contemplated by Section 1.848-2(g)(8) of the Treasury Regulations promulgated under section 848 of the Code (the “Treasury Regulations”) with respect to this Agreement. Each of the Company and the Reinsurer (i) agrees that such election is effective for

the taxable year of each party that includes the Second Amendment Effective Time and for all subsequent years during which this Agreement remains in effect and (ii) warrants that it will take no action to revoke the election.

(c)Pursuant to Section 1.848-2(g)(8) of the Treasury Regulations, each of the Company and the Reinsurer hereby agrees (i) to attach a schedule to its federal income Tax return in the form of Schedule 6.1(c) for its first taxable year ending on or after the Second Amendment Effective Time that identifies this Agreement as a reinsurance agreement for which the joint election under Section 1.848-2(g)(8) has been made, (ii) that the party with net positive consideration for this Agreement for each taxable year will capitalize its specified policy acquisition expenses with respect to this Agreement without regard to the general deductions limitation of Section 848(c)(1) of the Code, and (iii) to exchange information pertaining to the amount of net consideration under this Agreement each year to ensure consistency or as otherwise required by the Internal Revenue Service. The Reinsurer shall prepare and execute duplicate copies of the schedule described in the preceding sentence as soon as practicable after the Second Amendment Effective Time and submit them to the Company for execution. The Company shall execute the copies and return one of them to the Reinsurer within thirty (30) calendar days of the receipt of such copies.

(d)The Company shall submit a schedule to the Reinsurer by May 1 of each year of its calculation of the net consideration under this Agreement for the preceding taxable year. This schedule of calculations shall be accompanied by a statement signed by an authorized representative of the Company stating that the Company shall report such net consideration in its federal income Tax return for the preceding taxable year.

(e)The Reinsurer may contest such calculation by providing an alternative calculation to the Company in writing within thirty (30) calendar days after the date on which the Reinsurer receives the Company’s calculation. If the Reinsurer does not so notify the Company, the Reinsurer shall report the net consideration under this Agreement as determined by the Company in the Reinsurer’s federal income Tax return for the preceding taxable year.

a.If the Reinsurer contests the Company’s calculation of the net consideration under this Agreement, the parties shall act in good faith to reach an agreement as to the correct amount of net consideration within thirty (30) calendar days after the date on which the Reinsurer submits its alternative calculation. If the Reinsurer and the Company reach an agreement as to the amount of net consideration under this Agreement, each party shall report such amount in its federal income Tax return for the preceding taxable year. If, during such period, the Reinsurer and the Company are unable to reach an agreement, they shall promptly thereafter cause Deloitte & Touche USA LLP or, if Deloitte & Touche USA LLP is unable or unwilling to serve, another nationally recognized accounting firm mutually agreeable to the Company and the Reinsurer (the “Independent Accountants”) to promptly review (which review shall commence no later than five (5) calendar days after the selection of the Independent Accountants) this Agreement and the calculations of the Reinsurer and the Company for the purpose of calculating the net consideration under this Agreement. In making such calculation, the Independent Accountants shall consider only those items or amounts in the Company’s calculation as to which the Reinsurer has disagreed. The Independent Accountants shall deliver

to the Reinsurer and the Company, as promptly as practicable (but no later than thirty (30) calendar days after the commencement of their review), a report setting forth such calculation, which calculation shall result in a net consideration between the amount thereof shown in the Company’s calculation delivered pursuant to Section 6.1(d) and the amount thereof shown in the Reinsurer’s calculation delivered pursuant to Section 6.1(e). Such report shall be final and binding upon the Reinsurer and the Company. The fees, costs and expenses of the Independent Accountants shall be borne (i) by the Company if the difference between the net consideration as calculated by the Independent Accountants and the Company’s calculation delivered pursuant to Section 6.1(d) is greater than the difference between the net consideration as calculated by the Independent Accountants and the Reinsurer’s calculation delivered pursuant to Section 6.1(e),

(ii)by the Reinsurer if the first such difference is less than the second such difference, and (iii) otherwise equally by the Reinsurer and the Company.

ARTICLE VII ARBITRATION

Section 7.1. Arbitration.

(1)After the Closing Date, any dispute between the parties with respect to the calculation of amounts that are to be calculated, reported, or that may be audited pursuant to this Agreement (other than disputes relating to: (i) the assets to be transferred to the Reinsurer pursuant to Section 2.2. of the Asset Purchase Agreement, (ii) calculations relating to DAC Tax, which shall be resolved in accordance with Article VI hereof, (iii) whether a Triggering Event has occurred or (iv) calculation of the Security Amount, which shall be resolved in accordance with Section 4.3 hereof), shall be decided through negotiation and, if necessary, arbitration as set forth in Section 7.2. For the avoidance of doubt, and without limiting the rights of the Reinsurer and its Affiliates under the Asset Purchase Agreement, the Reinsurer shall have no claim in arbitration or otherwise against the Company with respect to the amount or nature of the assets transferred to the Reinsurer pursuant to Section 2.2 of the Asset Purchase Agreement or Section 3.1(a) of this Agreement.

1.The parties intend this Section 7.1 to be enforceable in accordance with the Federal Arbitration Act, including any amendments to such law which are subsequently adopted. In the event that either party refuses to submit to arbitration as required by Section 7.1(a), the other party may request the court specified in Section 11.4 to compel arbitration.

Section 7.2. Arbitration Procedure. The Company and Reinsurer intend that any dispute between them arising under this Agreement (excluding those disputes identified in Section 7.1(a)) be resolved without resort to any litigation. Accordingly, the Company and Reinsurer agree that they will negotiate diligently and in good faith to agree on a mutually satisfactory resolution of any such dispute; provided, however, that if any such dispute cannot be so resolved by them within sixty (60) calendar days (or such longer period as the parties may agree) after commencing such negotiations, the Company and Reinsurer agree that they will submit such dispute to arbitration in the manner specified in, and such arbitration proceeding will be conducted in accordance with, the Supplementary Rules for the Resolution of Intra-Industry

U.S. Reinsurance and Insurance Disputes of the American Arbitration Association.

The arbitration hearing will be before a panel of three (3) disinterested arbitrators, each of whom must be a present or former officer of a life insurance or life reinsurance company familiar with the life reinsurance business, or other professionals with experience in life insurance or reinsurance, provided that such professionals shall not have performed services for either party within the previous five (5) years, and provided further that no arbitrator shall be a former employee of the Company or any of its Affiliates. The Company and Reinsurer will each appoint one arbitrator by written notification to the other party within thirty (30) calendar days after the date of the mailing of the notification initiating the arbitration. These two arbitrators will then select the third arbitrator within sixty (60) calendar days after the date of the mailing of the notification initiating arbitration.

If either the Company or Reinsurer fails to appoint an arbitrator, or should the two arbitrators be unable to agree upon the choice of a third arbitrator, the American Arbitration Association will appoint the necessary arbitrators within thirty (30) calendar days after the request to do so.

The arbitrators shall base their decision on the terms and conditions of this Agreement. However, if the terms and conditions of this Agreement do not explicitly dispose of an issue in dispute between the parties, the arbitrators may base their decision on the customs and practices of the life insurance and life reinsurance industry together with an interpretation of the law. The vote or approval of a majority of the arbitrators will decide any question considered by the arbitrators. The place of arbitration will be determined by the arbitrators. Each decision (including, without limitation, each award) of the arbitrators will be final and binding on all parties and will be nonappealable, except that (at the request of either the Company or Reinsurer) any award of the arbitrators may be confirmed (or, if appropriate, vacated) by a judgment entered by the court specified in Section 11.4. No such award or judgment will bear interest except as provided in Section 3.4. In no event may the arbitrators award punitive or exemplary damages. Each party will be responsible for paying (a) all fees and expenses charged by its respective counsel, accountants, actuaries, and other representatives in conjunction with such arbitration and (b) one-half of the fees and expenses charged by each arbitrator.

ARTICLE VIII INSOLVENCY

Section 8.1. Insolvency of the Company. In the event of the insolvency of the Company, all reinsurance made, ceded, renewed or otherwise becoming effective under this Agreement shall be payable by the Reinsurer directly to the Company or to its statutory liquidator, receiver or statutory successor on the basis of the liability of the Company under the Covered Insurance Contracts without diminution because of the insolvency of the Company. It is understood, however, that in the event of the insolvency of the Company, the liquidator, receiver or statutory successor of the Company shall give written notice of the pendency of a claim against the Company on a Covered Insurance Contract within a reasonable period of time after such claim is filed in the insolvency proceedings and that during the pendency of such claim the Reinsurer may investigate such claim and interpose, at its own expense, in the

proceeding where such claim is to be adjudicated, any defense or defenses which it may deem available to the Company or its liquidator, receiver or statutory successor. It is further understood that the expense thus incurred by the Reinsurer shall be chargeable, subject to court approval, against the Company as part of the expense of liquidation to the extent of a proportionate share of the benefit which may accrue to the Company solely as a result of the defense undertaken by the Reinsurer.

ARTICLE IX DURATION; RECAPTURE

Section 9.1. Duration. This Agreement shall continue in force until such time as

(i)the Company’s liability with respect to all Covered Insurance Contracts reinsured hereunder is terminated in accordance with their respective terms, or the Company has elected to recapture the reinsurance of Covered Insurance Contracts in full in accordance with Section 9.3, and (ii) the Company has received payments which discharge such liability in full in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. In no event shall the interpretation of this Section 9.1 imply any unilateral right of the Reinsurer to terminate this Agreement; provided, however, that in the event that the Company fails to timely pay any material amount due the Reinsurer hereunder or under Reinsurance Agreement (B) or Reinsurance Agreement (C), and such amount remains unpaid for thirty (30) calendar days, the Reinsurer shall have the right to terminate reinsurance hereunder upon the end of such period. In such case or in the event that following an insolvency of the Company, the statutory liquidator, receiver or statutory successor of the Company terminates this Agreement, the provisions of Section 9.3 and Section 9.4 shall apply as if the Termination Date were a Recapture Date and the Reinsurer shall be relieved of all liability under this Agreement to make future payments to the Company.

Section 9.2. Survival. Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Article IX, the terms and conditions of Articles I, VI and X and the provisions of Sections 11.1, 11.4, 11.6,

Agreement, Reinsurance Agreement (B) and Reinsurance Agreement (C), by providing the Reinsurer with written notice of its intent to effect recapture. Recapture of the Covered Insurance Contracts shall be effective on the tenth (10th) day following the day on which the Company has provided the Reinsurer with such notice (the “Recapture Date”).

a.In addition, all or a portion of the reinsurance ceded under this Agreement may be recaptured with the mutual written consent of the parties hereto, including in connection with the establishment of a Buyers Facility.

b.If any Covered Insurance Contract is terminated or liabilities thereunder are recaptured strictly in accordance with the terms of such Covered Insurance Contract and the

consent of the Company is not required for such termination or recapture, the Company shall, upon ten (10) days’ prior written notice to the Reinsurer, recapture the liabilities ceded to the Reinsurer hereunder that are attributable to such terminated Covered Insurance Contract or to the liabilities recaptured under such Covered Insurance Contract, as the case may be.

c.Following any recapture pursuant to this Section 9.3, subject to Section

b.and to the payment obligations described in Section 9.4, both the Company and the Reinsurer will be fully and finally released from all rights and obligations under this Agreement in respect of the recaptured portion of the Covered Insurance Contract or Covered Insurance Contracts, including any claims of the Reinsurer to any modified coinsurance reserves or funds withheld balances held in connection with recaptured portion of the Covered Insurance Contracts, other than any payment obligations due hereunder prior to the Recapture Date but still unpaid on such date.

Section 9.4. Recapture Payments.

i.In connection with a recapture in full pursuant to Section 9.3(a), the Reinsurer shall prepare a Settlement Statement (the “Terminal Settlement Statement”) within sixty (60) calendar days of the Recapture Date setting forth the Net Settlement calculated in accordance with Exhibit D for the Terminal Accounting Period. If the amount of the Net Settlement for the Terminal Accounting Period is positive, the 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 Net Settlement for the Terminal Accounting Period is negative, the Reinsurer shall pay the absolute value of such amount to the Company at the time it delivers the Terminal Settlement Statement to the Company. In addition, on the Recapture Date or any other date on which all of the reinsurance ceded under this Agreement is recaptured, any letter of credit posted pursuant to Section 4.3 shall be immediately surrendered and cancelled and any amount held in trust pursuant to Section 4.3 shall be immediately returned to the Reinsurer, as the case may be.

ii.No recapture fee shall be payable in connection with a recapture in connection with the establishment of a Buyers Facility pursuant to Section 9.3(b) and any recapture payment in connection therewith shall be as mutually agreed by the parties.

iii.In connection with a recapture due to the termination or recapture by an underlying ceding company of a Covered Insurance Contract pursuant to Section 9.3(c), the

Company shall pay to the Reinsurer its quota share of any recapture fee received by the Company from such underlying ceding company in connection with the recapture and the Reinsurer shall pay to the Company its quota share of any recapture payment paid by the Company to such underlying ceding company.

Section 9.5. Payment Upon Termination.

In addition, on the Termination Date, any letter of credit posted pursuant to Section 4.3 shall be immediately surrendered and cancelled and any amount held in trust pursuant to Section 4.3 shall be immediately returned to the Reinsurer, as the case may be.

The Reinsurer hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Company and its Affiliates and their respective directors, officers and employees (collectively, the “Company Indemnified Parties”) from and against all losses, liabilities, claims, expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) and damages reasonably and actually incurred by the Company to the extent arising from (i) any breach of the covenants and agreements of the Reinsurer contained in this Agreement, except to the extent that such losses, liabilities, claims, expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) and damages are attributable to acts or omissions of a person who is a director, officer, employee, agent, representative, successor, or permitted assign of the Company or any of its Affiliates, unless such person is acting at the direction or request of the Reinsurer, and (ii) any successful enforcement of this indemnity.

Section 10.2. Company’s Obligation to Indemnify. The Company hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Reinsurer and its Affiliates and their respective directors, officers and employees (collectively, the “Reinsurer Indemnified Parties”) from and against all losses, liabilities, claims, expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) and damages reasonably and actually incurred by the Reinsurer to the extent arising from (i) any breach of the covenants and agreements of the Company contained in this Agreement, except to the extent that such losses, liabilities, claims, expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) and damages are attributable to acts or omissions of a person who is a director, officer, employee (other than in such employee’s capacity as an employee of the Company), agent, representative, successor, or permitted assign of the Reinsurer or any of its Affiliates, and (ii) any successful enforcement of this indemnity.

Section 10.3. Indemnification Procedures. In the case of any Litigation asserted by a third party (a “Third Party Claim”) against a party entitled to indemnification under

this Agreement (the “Indemnified Party”), notice shall be given by the Indemnified Party to the party required to provide indemnification (the “Indemnifying Party”) promptly after such Indemnified Party has actual knowledge of such Third Party Claim, and the Indemnified Party shall permit the Indemnifying Party (at the expense of such Indemnifying Party and so long as the Indemnifying Party acknowledges in writing its obligation to indemnify the Indemnified Party for Losses related to such Third Party Claim) to assume the defense of such Third Party Claim, provided that (a) counsel for the Indemnifying Party who shall conduct the defense of

such Third Party Claim shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, and the Indemnified Party may participate in such defense at such Indemnified Party’s expense, and (b) the failure of any Indemnified Party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligation under this Agreement except to the extent that such failure results in a lack of actual notice to the Indemnifying Party and such Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced as a result of such failure to give notice. If the Indemnifying Party does not promptly assume the defense of such Third Party Claim following notice thereof, the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to assume and control such defense and to settle or agree to pay in full such Third Party Claim without the consent of the Indemnifying Party without prejudice to the ability of the Indemnified Party to enforce its claim for indemnification against the Indemnifying Party hereunder. Except with the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, no Indemnifying Party, in the defense of any such Third Party Claim, shall consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement that (i) provides for injunctive or other nonmonetary relief affecting the Indemnified Party, (ii) does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by each claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Party of an irrevocable release from all liability with respect to such Third Party Claim, or (iii) would restrict such Indemnified Party’s ability to conduct its business in the ordinary course or would otherwise have a materially adverse impact on the business of the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnified Party in good faith determines that the conduct of the defense or any proposed settlement of any Third Party Claim would reasonably be expected to affect adversely the Indemnified Party’s Tax liability, or that the Indemnified Party may have available to it one or more defenses or counterclaims that are inconsistent with one or more of those that may be available to the Indemnifying Party in respect of such Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall have the right at all times to take over and control the defense, settlement, negotiation or Litigation relating to any such Third Party Claim at the sole cost of the Indemnifying Party, provided that if the Indemnified Party does so take over and control, the Indemnified Party shall not settle such Third Party Claim without the written consent of the Indemnifying Party, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. In any event, the Reinsurer and the Company shall cooperate in the defense of any Third Party Claim subject to this Article X and the records of each shall be reasonably available to the other with respect to such defense.

Section 10.4. Disclaimer. The Reinsurer hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Reinsurer is not relying in any way upon any duty of utmost good faith or other similar duty of disclosure on the part of the Company (a “Special Duty”) in connection with the amendment and restatement of the Original Treaty (A) as of the Amendment Effective Time or the amendment and restatement of the A&R Treaty (A) as of the Second Amendment Effective Time. Accordingly, as an inducement for the Company to enter into the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the Reinsurer hereby agrees that it will not institute any arbitration or other proceeding against the Company or assert any claim or defense against the

Company in any arbitration or other proceeding with respect to the liabilities assumed hereunder based in whole or in part upon any Special Duty as of the Second Amendment Effective Time; provided, however, that the Reinsurer reserves all of its rights and remedies in respect of any Special Duty arising after the Original Effective Time other than any Special Duty arising in connection with (i) the separation of the Original Reinsurance Agreement into the Original Treaty (A), Reinsurance Agreement (B) and Reinsurance Agreement (C) as of the Trifurcation

Effective Time, (ii) the amendment and restatement of the Original Treaty (A) as of the Amendment Effective Time or (iii) the amendment and restatement of the A&R Treaty (A) as of the Second Amendment Effective Time.

(b)an amount, if any, that may be included by the Reinsurer from time to time for each Accounting Period and maintained in accordance with Section 3.3(c) of the Agreement that is equal to

(xxiv)the product of the excess of 68% of the 2010 SLD APR over the SLD-SLDI Loop Reserves as of the end of such Accounting Period, multiplied by an Adjustment Factor higher than the value shown in the table under “Adjustment Factor” for such Accounting Period but not exceeding 1, which Adjustment Factor is specified in a notice provided by the Reinsurer to the Company in accordance with the notice requirement set forth in the definition of “Adjustment Factor”, less

(xxv)the Minimum Amount (the amount determined under this clause (b) or any other amount consented to by SLDI under Section 3.3(c) of the Agreement being the “Additional Amount”).

The present value shall be calculated using the pricing assumptions used by SLD in pricing the reinsurance for such policy adjusted to provide for adverse deviation on a basis determined from time to time by SLD and the Company.

“SLD Modco APR” means, with respect to any Accounting Period, an amount equal to the sum of (a) and (b), in each case (x) calculated in a manner consistent with the calculation made by SLD and the Company in the administration of SLD Treaty 2774 as at December 31, 2008 (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall include adjustments of the type set forth on Schedule A), and (y) minus the amount of any premium accruals in respect of SLD Treaty 2774 that are permitted by applicable statutory accounting requirements to be offset against collateral requirements for business ceded to unauthorized reinsurers, where:

(a)is equal to the amount of “Contract claims: Life” with respect to the policies covered under SLD Treaty 2774 shown on line 4.1 of page 3 of the statutory financial statements filed by SLD with the Colorado Division of Insurance for such Accounting Period; and

For purposes of calculating the SLD Modco APR, the tabular cost of insurance is defined as the net single premium at the beginning of a policy year for one-year term insurance in the amount of the guaranteed death benefit in that policy year using an interest rate determined by SLD that does not exceed the maximum valuation interest rate and mortality set by SLD pursuant to Section 6(e) of National Association of Insurance Commissioners Valuation of Life Insurance Policies Model Regulation; and

The present value shall be calculated using the pricing assumptions used by SLD in pricing the reinsurance for such policy adjusted to provide for adverse deviation on a basis determined from time to time by the SLD and the Company.

“Withdrawals”, in each case under Schedule F to SLD Treaty 2774 and Schedule F to SLD Treaty 2962 (referred to together herein as “Schedule F”); provided, that the Reinsurer may, at its election, notify the Company that it elects to establish one or more letters of credit for the benefit of SLD satisfying the requirements of Schedule F with respect to Market Value Top-Up Payments in lieu of funding such payments in cash or other assets. Such Top-Ups and Withdrawals shall be made in lieu of the payment of Modified Coinsurance Investment Income and Funds Withheld Investment Income 1 in clause (c) and in lieu of the payment of amounts under clauses (d) and (e) of the Net Settlement formula above (it being acknowledged that all or a portion of any Top-Up may also consist of collateralization for unrealized capital losses consistent with the intent of SLD and the Company with respect to Schedule F as described in the first sentence of Section 4 of Schedule F).

The Reinsurer shall be given credit for the amount of any funding provided by the Reinsurer pursuant to the foregoing sentence against any amount payable by the Reinsurer in connection with components (c) (other than with respect to Funds Withheld Investment Income 2), (d) and (e) of the Net Settlement for the relevant Accounting Period.

The Company shall act at the direction of the Reinsurer in determining (i) whether to (A) utilize letters of credit established by the Reinsurer rather than cash or other assets in funding any such Top-Up Payment or as substitution for certain withdrawn assets, in each case as permitted by Schedule F and (B) make any Withdrawal permitted by Schedule F, and (ii) whether to dispute any asset value for purposes of Schedule F and in selecting an independent investment management firm to resolve any such dispute in accordance with Section 3 of Schedule F. In connection with any Terminal Settlement under either of such treaties, the Reinsurer shall be (i) required to make any payment required to be made by the Company to SLD under Section 2(a) of Schedule F and (ii) entitled to any payment required to be made by SLD to the Company under Section 2(b) of Schedule F. In order for the Company to satisfy its obligations under Schedule F of each SLD Treaty 2774 and SLD Treaty 2962, the Reinsurer shall provide timely notification to the Company with respect to Reinsurer’s election to have the Company make a withdrawal of assets from the ING Re Segregated Account (as defined in Exhibit B to this Agreement) and the list of assets to be withdrawn.

Any payments made by SLD as adjustments in accordance with Section 5 of Schedule F shall be paid over by the Company to the Reinsurer, and any payments made by the Company to SLD as adjustments under such Section shall be reimbursed by the Reinsurer.
