Facts of the Case

Background

The plaintiff, an insurance company in liquidation, issued a payment guarantee to Zimbabwe Fertilizer Company Ltd (ZFC) for tobacco inputs supplied to farmers. The plaintiff reinsured this risk with the three defendants under a Facultative Reinsurance Guarantee Agreement. When farmers defaulted and ZFC claimed US$1,775,489.25, the plaintiff paid and sought reimbursement from defendants who denied liability alleging breach of agreement terms.
