This means that there is a "top" additional cover for
Rs. 10 crores, excess of Rs.40 crores and in case
the lower layer limits and reinstatement provisions

additional reinstatement upto Rs.10 crores.

Q. Discuss the scope of the "follow the
      fortunes" clause in a treaty agreement.

Ans: The clause generally reads as:
       "All acceptances hereunder shall be at the same gross
       rates, terms and conditions as and to follow the
       settlement of the company and the reinsurer shall follow
       the fortunes of the company in regard to the cessions
       in which the reinsurer by virtue of this agreement takes
       part"

"Follow the fortunes" simply means that the reinsurer
follows the ceding company in every respect as far
cessions to the treaty are concerned.
