The private reinsurance contracts cover, in general, hurricanes, tropical storms, tornados, and other large events. Catastrophic flood coverage is provided under separate contracts. The Florida Hurricane Catastrophe Fund agreement covers only storms designated as hurricanes by the National Hurricane Center.  </p>

The total coverage for all occurrences is $1.93 billion.&nbsp;&nbsp;Retention under the contracts for our insurance subsidiaries, excluding the flood coverage, is approximately $16 million in the first event and $16 million in the second event. All our private reinsurers are AM Best rated &#8216;A-&#8217; or better or have fully collateralized their potential obligations to us. </p>

The cost of flood coverage is approximately $5.9 million. The Florida Hurricane Catastrophe Fund component of the program is estimated to cover 90% of $890.6 million of first event loss in excess of $349.4 million at a total estimated cost of $56.2 million.</p>

Claddaugh will deposit funds into a trust account to fully collateralize its exposure to Homeowners Choice and TypTap.</p>

On the contrary, we will derecognize such asset in the period in which a loss experience arises. Such adjustments to the asset, which accrue throughout the contract term, will negatively impact our operating results if a catastrophic loss event occurs.</p>
