In the present paper the author gives net premium formulae for a generalized largest claims reinsurance cover. If the claim sizes are mutually independent and identically 3-parametric Pareto distributed and the number of claims has a Poisson, binomial or negative binomial distribution, formulae are given from which numerical values can easily be obtained. The results are based on identities for compounded order statistics.
