Rule 13

Reinsurance

  1. Subject to the Articles, and save insofar as expressly prohibited by these Rules, the Managers may enter into contracts of reinsurance on behalf of the Association whereby the Association agrees to reinsure the risks arising in connection with any one or more ships insured by another association or insurer or else agrees to reinsure the whole or any part or proportion of the insurance business of any other association or insurer. The consideration payable to the Association and the terms and conditions on which the reinsurance is accepted by the Association shall be such as are agreed between the Managers and such other association or insurer. Save where otherwise agreed in writing the other association or insurer shall be in every respect subject to and bound by the provisions of these Rules and its contract with the Association shall for all purposes take effect as though it were the Owner of any ship or ships in connection with which the relevant risks may arise and had an Owner entered the ship or ships in the Association for insurance.
  2. The Association may continue to be a party to the Pooling Agreement or to any other agreement of a similar nature or purpose.
  3. The Managers shall have the right in their discretion to effect on behalf of the Association the reinsurance or ceding of any risks insured by the Association (including any risk which may fall on the Association by reason of a reinsurance or pooling agreement referred to in paragraphs (A) or (B) of this Rule) with such reinsurers and on such terms as the Managers shall consider appropriate.
