On March 30, 2011, Security National Financial Corporation, through its wholly owned subsidiary, Security National Life Insurance Company (“Security National Life”), completed a Coinsurance Agreement with North America Life Insurance Company (“North America Life”), a Texas domiciled insurance company.  Under the terms of the Coinsurance Agreement, Security National Life agreed to reinsure certain insurance policies of North America Life in exchange for the settlement amount of $15,703,641.  Effective as of December 1, 2010, North America Life ceded or transferred to Security National Life, and Security National Life accepted and coinsured all of North America Life’s contractual liabilities under the coinsured policies by means of indemnity reinsurance.  The Coinsurance Agreement was approved by the Texas Department of Insurance.

The Coinsurance Agreement also provides that on and after the effective date of December 1, 2010, Security National Life is entitled to exercise all contractual rights of North America Life under the coinsured policies in accordance with the terms and provisions of such policies.  Moreover, after the closing date of March 30, 2011, Security National Life agreed to be responsible for all of the contractual liabilities under the coinsured policies, including to administer the coinsured policies at its sole expense in accordance with the terms and conditions of a services agreement.

Pursuant to the terms of the Coinsurance Agreement, Security National Life paid a ceding commission to North America Life in the amount of $3,525,875. In addition, North America Life transferred $15,703,641 in assets and $19,229,516 in statutory reserves, or liabilities net of due and deferred premiums, to Security National Life.  The $15,703,641 in assets included $12,990,444 in cash, $8,997 in policy loans, and $2,704,200 in promissory notes secured by real estate properties located in Bexar, Liberty, Travis and Wilson Counties in the State of Texas.  The promissory notes are also guaranteed by business entities and an individual.
