UMVUE of the reciprocal of an exponential rate

Let X1,…,XnX_1,…,X_n be a random sample from a population with probability density function

fθ(x)={θe−θx,x>0, 0,otherwise,f_\theta(x)=\begin{cases}\theta e^{-\theta x}, & x>0,\ 0, & \text{otherwise,}\end{cases}

where θ>0\theta>0 is an unknown parameter. Then, the uniformly minimum variance unbiased estimator for 1θ\frac1\theta is
