Objection Letter Date 02/23/2012

Submitted Date 02/23/2012

Respond By Date 03/07/2012

Dear Rick Hartschuh,

After review of this filing, we have the following question(s)/comment(s).

Objection 1

- Underwriting Guidelines-Personal Lines Rate Filings (Supporting Document)

Comment: The following was copied from your response to underwriting guidelines objection: "Under our current Ohio

homeowner's program we do allow secondary and seasonal homes to be written under the homeowner's as long as we

have the primary home." This is contrary to NH RSA 417:4 VIII (e)

Objection 2

- Underwriting Guidelines-Personal Lines Rate Filings (Supporting Document)

Comment: item I Prohibited risks 4 is contrary to NH RSA 417:4 VIII (e)

Objection 3

- Recreational Motor Vehicle Liability, CP 164, 01-12 (Form)

Comment: Exclusion A1-No liability policy issued or delivered in this state shall contain any exclusion which would

preclude coverage for intra-family or inter-spousal claims. RSA 412:5 II

Objection 4

- General Endorsement, GU 6784, 02-84 (Form)

Comment: The form still conflicts with NH RSA 412:5 I. The department does not approve of manuscripting language in

a policy. In reading your response to our original objection, the department does permit a consent to rate or an

individual risk filing, which requires submission to the department for approval. The information on this is available on

our website. Please withdraw this form. The consent to rate or individual risk filing have specific forms.

I have pasted the information from our website here for you.

Property & Casualty > Consent to Rate & Individual Risk Filing

Completion information of Consent to Rate & Individual Risk Forms

The New Hampshire Insurance Department has standardized the Consent to Rate & Individual Risk filing forms.

Project Name/Number: HMSNH01152012 FORMS/HMSNH01152012 FORMS

For all fire and certain casualty lines, both personal and commercial (classes of insurance which may be written under

RSA 401:I, II, V, VI & VII) whenever a rate or form is used that is not on file with the New Hampshire Insurance

Department, the insurer must complete and submit either:

Consent to Rate Form – RSA 412:16 X

Individual Risk Form – RSA 412:5

These forms must be signed by the policyholder.

This information must be provided by electronically submitting a confidential SERFF Filing. To speed handling, the filing

should be noted as being submitted as an individual risk filing.

Objection 5

- Inland Marine Terms, IM 100-NH, 01-12 (Form)

Comment: These questions were not answered in your response to the original objection. What happens when

coverage supplied by the base policy covering the same property as listed on this form? It appears to provide duplicative

coverage.

Objection 6

- Jewelry Deductible, IM-175-5, 08-84 (Form)

Comment: Please verify when this form is applied it supersedes the jewelry coverage and deductible found in the base

policy? If so please advise is a premium credit applied to the portion of the base policy pertinent to this coverage? The

above questions were not addressed in your response. Please respond to the questions.

Objection 7

- Limited Theft coverage, IM-458-1, 01-87 (Form)

- Named Peril Coverage - Musical Instruments, IM-664-10, 09-87 (Form)

- Schedule Property Coverage - Named Peril, IM 902, 02-85 (Form)

Comment: The use of the Inland marine in conjunction with regular HO forms creates a reduction of coverage from that

provided in base HO policy. There must be some indication that the coverage forms chosen result in a reduction of

coverage from the base HO policy. You may revise the forms, just under the title to indicate this reduction of coverage or

insert a signature line for the insured to adequately address the issue of proper notification. if there are other forms in

this filing that have a similar result, we require the same revision to them .

Objection 8

- Farm Machinery Blanket Coverage, IM 851, 06-84 (Form)

Comment: The rules supplied in response to our original objection reference incidental farm forms HO 24 72 and HO 04

13 the rules do not address these forms nor do they appear limited to incidental farming as previously noted. Please

revisit the original objection.

Review will continue when we receive your reply. In the absence of any response, by the Respond-By-Date noted

above, this filing will be disapproved. Extensions will not be granted without good cause shown, RSA 400-A:16 II.

Dear Gail Matson,

Comments:

Please find our responses and corrected forms below.

Response 1Comments: We have changed our guidelines and removed from the prohibited list secondary/seasonal homes. As we

discussed we have included in the guidelines that the secondary/seasonal home needs prior underwriting approval and

that it cannot be rented out. We have removed the guideline requiring the supporting primary coverage. Attached is the

revised guideline.

Comment:

No Form Schedule items changed.

No Rate/Rule Schedule items changed.

Response 2Comments: This was also requiested to be changed by Dave Withers on our rules and rates filing. We had made the

changes to reflect that Protection Class 10 is not prohibited, but would be treated the same as Protection Class 9. This

Comments: This form is withdrawn. If we have need to adjust a particular form or rate we will use the forms suggested

by New Hampshire: Consent to Rate Form and Individual Risk Form. These will be filed as required if being used.

Related Objection 1

Applies To:

General Endorsement, GU 6784, 02-84 (Form)

Comment:

The form still conflicts with NH RSA 412:5 I. The department does not approve of manuscripting language in a

policy. In reading your response to our original objection, the department does permit a consent to rate or an

individual risk filing, which requires submission to the department for approval. The information on this is available

on our website. Please withdraw this form. The consent to rate or individual risk filing have specific forms.

I have pasted the information from our website here for you.

Property & Casualty > Consent to Rate & Individual Risk Filing

Completion information of Consent to Rate & Individual Risk Forms

The New Hampshire Insurance Department has standardized the Consent to Rate & Individual Risk filing forms.

For all fire and certain casualty lines, both personal and commercial (classes of insurance which may be written

under RSA 401:I, II, V, VI & VII) whenever a rate or form is used that is not on file with the New Hampshire

Insurance Department, the insurer must complete and submit either:

Consent to Rate Form – RSA 412:16 X

Individual Risk Form – RSA 412:5

These forms must be signed by the policyholder.

This information must be provided by electronically submitting a confidential SERFF Filing. To speed handling, the

filing should be noted as being submitted as an individual risk filing.

Response 5Comments: The IM 100-NH is a form that is attached to the policy if the insured has elected to write a particular

coverage on one of the Inland Marine options what we have filed. The IM 100-NH provides for Inland Marine General

Terms and Policy Conditions.

If a particular item is listed on one of the inland marine forms it is no longer covered under the base policy form. Please

refer to the forms HO 00 02; HO 00 03; HO 00 04; HO 00 05; and HO 00 06 under Section I Property Coverages,

Coverage C - Personal Property item 4.a. Property not covered: It indicates that articles seperately described and

specifically insured, regardless of the limit for which they are insured, in this or other insurance is not covered.

Therefore if an item is covered under the inland marine form it is no longer covered under the base policy as indicated

by the ISO base dwelling forms and there would be no duplicate coverage. This form is attached and would apply for

the inland marine terms, items and conditions.

Related Objection 1

Applies To:

Inland Marine Terms, IM 100-NH, 01-12 (Form)

Comment:

These questions were not answered in your response to the original objection. What happens when coverage

supplied by the base policy covering the same property as listed on this form? It appears to provide duplicative

coverage.

Response 6Comments: This form is attached only if jewelry is scheduled on an inland marine coverage. If the jewelry is scheduled

on the inland marine coverage than the base policy does not apply as indicated under Coverage C - Personal Property

Item 4.a in the base policy. The deductible provision in the ISO HO forms indicates that unless otherwise noted in this

policy, the following deductilbe provision applies, since this endorsement IM-175-5 could be attached to the policy it

would supercede the policy deductible because it would be otherwise noted in this policy. Since the sceduled jewelry is

no longer covered under the base policy if scheduled, the deductible credits apply to the particular jewelry item that is

scheduled. The credits apply as indicated before and again here: Factor and credit are shown in () $100 (1.00) $250

(.92 - 8%); $500 (.83 - 17%); $750 (.79 - 21%); $1,000 (.75 - 25%); $1500 (.73 - 27%); $2,000 (.72 -28%); $2500 (.71 -

Related Objection 1

Applies To:

Jewelry Deductible, IM-175-5, 08-84 (Form)

Comment:

Please verify when this form is applied it supersedes the jewelry coverage and deductible found in the base

policy? If so please advise is a premium credit applied to the portion of the base policy pertinent to this coverage?

Comments: I have revised the forms and indicated in the title that it is a reduction in coverage. That way the insured will

be informed of this if they select this optional coverage. The revised forms have been attached.

I have also updated the PTF-1 Named Peril Coverage for Portable Tools and revised it to be state specific. The form

will now be PTF-1-NH (01-12) and it also shows in the title Reduction in Coverage since coverage is on a named peril

basis.

Comment:

The use of the Inland marine in conjunction with regular HO forms creates a reduction of coverage from that

provided in base HO policy. There must be some indication that the coverage forms chosen result in a reduction

of coverage from the base HO policy. You may revise the forms, just under the title to indicate this reduction of

coverage or insert a signature line for the insured to adequately address the issue of proper notification. if there

are other forms in this filing that have a similar result, we require the same revision to them .

Response 8Comments: We have added to the Personal Lines Guidelines letter R. This deals with the Optional Farm Inland Marine

endorsements and gives general guidelines as to when these endorsements can be used. They now require that the

item scheduled should be located on the insured premises. We have also put limitations of $25000 for the farm

machinery total and the livestock total. These limits would keep the exposures to incidental compared to a full-time

farmer. We offer in Ohio a farmowner program that typically insures limits much higher for total farm machinery and

livestock in that program; we feel the $25,000 limit would be incidental.

The revised guideline is attached with Ojbection #1 please refer there for the guidelines then refer to Page 11.

Dear Rick Hartschuh,

After review of this filing, we have the following question(s)/comment(s).

Objection 1

- Exotic Animal Exclusion, IL UO 27, 01-12 (Form)

Comment: As noted in our telephone conversation of 1/19/12, this item was marked for the objection letter but the

comment did not make it into the original correspondence.

The issue of exotic animals or unacceptable exposures must be addressed through proper underwriting with filed and

approved underwriting eligibility guidelines rather than the use of sweeping exclusions.

Canine or animal liability may be excluded from a liability contract (policy) via endorsement, but not on a broad or

blanket basis (RSA 412:1 X and RSA 412:5 I - not a public good). The exclusion must be limited to an identified animal

(requires animal’s name and breed). This type of exclusion requires a signature of a Named Insured on the

endorsement to indicate that the insured is aware of this restriction.

Review will continue when we receive your reply. In the absence of any response, by the Respond-By-Date noted

above, this filing will be disapproved. Extensions will not be granted without good cause shown, RSA 400-A:16 II.

Sincerely,

Gail Matson

Dear Gail Matson,

Comments:

Please see our response below.

Response 1Comments: We will with draw this form.

We will not re-do the form to allow for a certain exotic animal identified by breed and name to be excluded as we are not

sure such an endorsement would hold up in court. Also it creates issue if we have one exotic animal exluded and the

insured purchases another, we believe we would have to go through the steps to obtain another signature on a new

exclusion.

Our guidelines clearly indicate that accounts with vicious or aggressive animals, exotic, or non-domesticated animals

are prohibited. Therefore we would not be writing any accounts if we knowingly are aware of these animals.

New Hampshire law indicates that it is unlawful for persons to possess exotic animals, such a felines, bears, wolves,

poisonous reptiles, and non-human primates, unless they are exhibitors. If the insured does not have the appropriate

permits they would be committing an illegal act and therefore not sure if the policy would respond as they were not

"legally liabile" as what they were doing was illegal, this would require a court of law to decide.

The ISO HO 01 28 allows for cancellation of the policy if discovery of fraud or material misrepresentation by the named

insured is pursuing a claim under the policy; discovery of grossly negligent acts or omissions by the insured substantially

increasing any of the hazards insured against; or physicall changes in the insured property which result in the property

becoming uninsurable (building cages and pens to house these animals could result in physical changes increasing the

hazards).

If we become aware of an account with these animals we will proceed with the appropriate notices of cancellations and

or non-renewal with the appropriate days, this may also include a mid-term cancellation.

Dear Rick Hartschuh,

After review of this filing, we have the following question(s)/comment(s).

Objection 1

Comment: Due to the number of issues identified in the filing, we suggest that this filing be withdrawn in order to allow

you sufficient time to make the adjustments that are necessary to bring this closer to the requirements of our rules and

statutes and allow for proper review. After having researched NHID filing rules, statutes and requirements, you may

submit a revised filing, which will likely result in a faster review and disposition.

Objection 10

- Named Storm Deductible, HO 03 18, 01-12 (Form)

Comment: There are a number of elements of this form that are a cause of concern:

1. The potential for selectivity of application by location and coverage.

2. This form imposes a separate tier of deductible that poses a potential element of ambuguity/confusion to the

application of coverage for the insured.

3. While this deductible does not replace existing deductibles, it supercedes them, not only in regard to wind for which

there is a separate deductible endorsement, but all other covered causes of loss as well, including fire and lightning.

Some of the connection of this form to other causes of loss being is tenuous at best. What is the difference between a

lightning strike in a Named Storm versus a severe thunderstorm?

The potential for confusion of coverage, selectivity of application, and broad application to coverage in general is not

deemed to be in the best interest of the consumer. Please withdraw this form. RSA 412:5 I and, potentially, RSA 417:4.

Objection 11

Objection 12

- Recreational Motor Vehicle Liability, CP 164, 07-10 (Form)

Comment: Exclusion A2 requires revision. No liability policy issued or delivered in this state shall contain any exclusion

which would preclude coverage for intra-family or inter-spousal claims. RSA 412:5 II

Objection 13

- Uninsured/Underinsured Motorists Coverage for Recreational Motor Vehicles, A 119, 12-05 (Form)

Comment: Currently many recreational vehicle policies are stand alone policies. Prior to the availability of these newer

stand alone policies it was common practice to add liability coverage for boats, snowmobiles, or recreational vehicles via

endorsement. This form deviates significantly from the practice previously described as UM/UIM coverage is not

normally attached to a homeowners policy. UM/UIM coverage has a causal connection to motor vehicle policies, and the

stand alone types of policies for boats, snowmobiles and recreational vehicles The homeowner policy should not

approximate a motor vehicle policy which has very specific requirements in NH. Please remove the UM/UIM form or

provide sufficient information to adequately justify its connection to a Homeowner's Policy.

Objection 14

- General Endorsement, GU 6784, 02-84 (Form)

Comment:

This is a blank endorsement. Please clarify your intent in use of the endorsement.

NHID must review and approve all language that is to be used per RSA 412:5 I. This endorsement can not be used to

create policy language or terms that serves to restrict, broaden or impede coverage.

Objection 15

- Recreational Vehicles/Snowmobiles (Physical Damage), HO 77, 03-90 (Form)

Comment: Item 6 if the conversion or embezzlement is not perpetrated by persons other than the insured, coverage

should apply for the insured as the insured has sustained loss that is outside of his control. The insured should not be

Objection 18

- Asbestos and Silica Exclusion, ML 146, 01-05 (Form)

Comment: The form is titled Asbestos and Silica Exclusion with a form number listed as ML 146 01-05. Upon opening

Please attach the intended form and have the form number and title match the one attached in the forms tab.

Objection 19

- Home Computer Endorsement, ML 170, 01-86 (Form)

Comment: Please advise when and why this form is attached. Home computers are a commonly owned item and

routinely covered under Coverage C section (contents) on a homeowners policy. The form appears to provide

duplicative coverage. What does this form provide that is lacking in the contents portion of the base policy?

Objection 20

- Amendatory Endorsement - HMS, OM 01 02, 01-12 (Form)

Comment: Item J -The New Hampshire Insurance Department requires representation vs warranty (individual guaranty)

language under the premise that the person signing the form may not have first-hand knowledge of all information that

must be provided. That person can not, therefore, be expected to warrant what is known by another person other than

“to the best of their knowledge”. The intent of the insured is critical and must be reflected in any clause of this nature.

Please reference ISO Form CG 26 55 11 08 for one possible language option.

Objection 21

- Specific Structures on Residence Premises, OM 00 48, 09-04 (Form)

Comment: Structures other than the dwelling structure are routinely covered under the base policy- Other structures

(Coverage B). Coverage is provided on an all risk basis. This form reduces coverage form the traditional all risk basis to

a named peril basis, which results in coverage gaps that are detrimental for the insured. (NH RSA 412:5 I not a public

good).

Please explain when and why the form would be attached. Is a premium credit applied for its use? Please provide

adequate information to justify it benefit to the insured or remove it from the policy.

Objection 23

- Other Members of Your Household, OM 04 58, 05-06 (Form)

Comment: The base homeowners policy routinely covers resident relatives (and their dependents 21 and younger) living

at the residence. It also includes coverage for full time students away at school limited to a certain age. We do not see

any reference made to full time students as noted above. If the form is not used it excludes coverage for resident

relatives and students which creates a coverage gap that is contrary to public policy and detrimental to the insured. (NH

separated from the base policy. Is the endorsement mandatory?

Objection 24

- Other Members of Your Household, OM 04 58, 05-06 (Form)

Comment: Intentional loss must be revised. Concealment, Misrepresentation or Fraud provisions may not "void" the

entire policy, and coverage may not be denied to any insured(s) who had no knowledge of or participation in any

concealment, misrepresentation or fraud. One possible suggestion is for the wording to comply with NH Mandatory ISO

Objection 26

- Watercraft Liability, OM 24 75, 10-01 (Form)

Comment: Exclusion 6 relative to the term "towed" It appears the intent is to exclude tubing or water skiing liability.

Please note that these are common exposures in watercraft liability. The exclusion of liability for such activity creates a

coverage gap that is contrary to public policy and detrimental to the insured. (RSA 412:1 X and RSA 412:5 I - not a

public good

Objection 27

- Watercraft Liability, OM 24 75, 10-01 (Form)

Comment: Exclusion 8 The insured is responsible for minors up to the legally established "age of reason". A blanket

Comment:

Due to the number of issues identified in the filing, we suggest that this filing be withdrawn in order to allow you

sufficient time to make the adjustments that are necessary to bring this closer to the requirements of our rules and

statutes and allow for proper review. After having researched NHID filing rules, statutes and requirements, you

may submit a revised filing, which will likely result in a faster review and disposition.

Response 2Comments: The Portable tool endorsements are optional endorsements available to the insured to schedule portable

tools that they may own. These insureds may be carpenters, electricians, mechanics, or plumbers that might have to

purchase their equipment for their place of employment as their employer does not provide them with their tools. For

those individuals that are self-employed with their own business, they would not be eligible for this coverage as they

would need to purchase commercial insurance.

These endorsements can provide either named peril coverage (PTF-1) or Open Perils Coverage (PTF-2). For an

individual who has purchased an HO 00 02 or an HO 00 03 the PTF-2 is an option available to provide broader

for example a $1,000 on their homeowner's might mean they would never have coverage for the theft of any tools and

Response 4Comments: Please note that this particular coverage provided under this endorsement is a broadening of coverage not

an exclusion or llimitation of coverage. Also please note that this coverage is for Section I only it does not address or

alter the Section II Coverages provided by the policy.

The coverage provides for the clean-up of land or water on the insured's premieses for the escape of fuel oil. The base

policy does not provide this coverage for Section I Coverage as land and water are excluded under the definitions of

Coverage A and B. The loss is the result of a peril insured against and is providing the limit provided by the

endorsement for the clean-up of water and land; items not covered under the base policy.

Purchasing this endorsement provides broader coverage than provided by the homeowner's policy and would be a

benefit to the insured not a limitation and not against public good.

Response 10Comments: 1. I have included the guidelines, rules for the application of the HO 03 18 Named Storm Deductible. This

endorsement will only be required for insureds residing in the listed Sea Coast zip codes and within 1 mile of the coast,

other than that it is strictly an optional endorsement. The Distance to Coast will be determined at the time of the quote

by ISO.

2. The form is similar to the filed ISO HO 03 18 Hurricane Deductible although we clarified it to be a Named Storm

Deductible. The form specifically indicates that this deductible only applies to the peril of windstorm or hail for the

named storm. If windstorm or hail loss is result of a claim resulting form an event other than the Named Storm, the

policy deductible applies.

3. There maybe some confusion here as to how this deductible applies. This deductible does not supercede fire and

lightning as it indicates with respect to the peril of Windstorm or Hail. This is a higher deductible with regards to Named

Storms, the base ISO homeowner's policy under the Section I Conditions - Deducitlbe indicates that if more than one

deductible applies only the highest deductible would apply therefore only the one deductible for the Named Storm would

apply. Again this deductible only applies if there is a Named Storm assigned by the National Hurrican Center or the

Central Pacific Hurrican Center of the National Weather Service.

Related Objection 1

Applies To:

Named Storm Deductible, HO 03 18, 01-12 (Form)

Comment:

There are a number of elements of this form that are a cause of concern:

1. The potential for selectivity of application by location and coverage.

2. This form imposes a separate tier of deductible that poses a potential element of ambuguity/confusion to the

application of coverage for the insured.

3. While this deductible does not replace existing deductibles, it supercedes them, not only in regard to wind for

which there is a separate deductible endorsement, but all other covered causes of loss as well, including fire and

lightning. Some of the connection of this form to other causes of loss being is tenuous at best. What is the

difference between a lightning strike in a Named Storm versus a severe thunderstorm?

The potential for confusion of coverage, selectivity of application, and broad application to coverage in general is

not deemed to be in the best interest of the consumer. Please withdraw this form. RSA 412:5 I and, potentially,

RSA 417:4.

that out to us.

2. Occupancy 3-4 family. Normally our homeowner program provides coverage for 1-2 family dwellings. If the insured

owned and resided in a 3-4 family unit, this would have been written on our dwelling fire or commercial programs.

Neither of those are available in New Hamsphire so we will revise our guidelines and indicate acceptability of 3-4 family

units as long as insured resides in one of the units.

3. Seasonal/secondary homes. Since we are new to the State we wanted to enter cautiously as to the expsosures we

provided coverage for; thus we were electing not to write seasonal and secondary homes at this time. Under or current

Ohio homeowner's program we do allow secondary and seasonal homes to be written under the homeowner's as long

as we have the primary home. Most likely in the future this will filed and changed that we will offer to provide coverage

in our homeowners for seasonal and secondary dwellings

4. Protection Class. We have revised the guidelines with regards to Protection Class as requested under our Rules and

Rate Filing OHMG - 127853341. We are now treating Protection Class 9 and 10 the same. The examiner for the rules

and rate filing was ok with the requirement that PC 9 & 10 needed underwriting approval just as long as we treated them

the same.

Applies To:

Uninsured/Underinsured Motorists Coverage for Recreational Motor Vehicles, A 119, 12-05 (Form)

Comment:

Currently many recreational vehicle policies are stand alone policies. Prior to the availability of these newer stand

alone policies it was common practice to add liability coverage for boats, snowmobiles, or recreational vehicles via

endorsement. This form deviates significantly from the practice previously described as UM/UIM coverage is not

normally attached to a homeowners policy. UM/UIM coverage has a causal connection to motor vehicle policies,

and the stand alone types of policies for boats, snowmobiles and recreational vehicles The homeowner policy

should not approximate a motor vehicle policy which has very specific requirements in NH. Please remove the

UM/UIM form or provide sufficient information to adequately justify its connection to a Homeowner's Policy.

Response 19Comments: This endorsement is an optional endorsement that the insured can purchase to provide broader coverage

for a home computer than what the base policy may. If the insured purchases an HO 00 02 the covered perils are

named perils and this form provided for risks of physical loss unless otherwise excluded. Also with this form the insured

may purchase a lower deductible than the policy deductible. For instance the homeowners may have a $1,000 and this

endorsement could carry a $100 deductible for the computer. The base policy on the HO 00 03 for contents is named

perils if the insured would drop their computer or it mysteriously disappeared the base policy would not cover those as

they are not named perils, this endorsement would provide that option for an insured if they desire.

Related Objection 1

Applies To:

Home Computer Endorsement, ML 170, 01-86 (Form)

Comment:

Please advise when and why this form is attached. Home computers are a commonly owned item and routinely

covered under Coverage C section (contents) on a homeowners policy. The form appears to provide duplicative

coverage. What does this form provide that is lacking in the contents portion of the base policy?

language under the premise that the person signing the form may not have first-hand knowledge of all information

that must be provided. That person can not, therefore, be expected to warrant what is known by another person

other than “to the best of their knowledge”. The intent of the insured is critical and must be reflected in any clause

of this nature.

Response 21Comments: As follow up to our phone conversation on January 18th this form is an optional form that can be used to

provide coverage for a structure that we would normally not wish to write under Coverage B of the homeowner's form.

The typical structure under the homeowner Coverage B for example tends to be either a garage, storage shed, or

gazebo. If we are aware of a large Barn structure over 2500 square feet that is located on the property, this would be

covered under Coverage B but due to it's size or possible condition we would not want to provide coverage. This form

allows an option to provide for the structure on a named peril basis. This form/endorsement is typically used for larger

structures over 2500 square feet.

I have attached a copy of the Rules/rate Manual page that deals with this. This was submitted under SERFF- OHMG-

127853341

Related Objection 1

Applies To:

Specific Structures on Residence Premises, OM 00 48, 09-04 (Form)

Comment:

Structures other than the dwelling structure are routinely covered under the base policy- Other structures

(Coverage B). Coverage is provided on an all risk basis. This form reduces coverage form the traditional all risk

basis to a named peril basis, which results in coverage gaps that are detrimental for the insured. (NH RSA 412:5 I

not a public good).

Please explain when and why the form would be attached. Is a premium credit applied for its use? Please provide

adequate information to justify it benefit to the insured or remove it from the policy.

upon the cost to repair or replace the damaged buildings using current and less costly common contruction materials

longer used for example plaster and lathe. To figure the replacement cost and to put the insured back as they were

before the loss may not be want the insured wants as they would like to replace with current construction such as dry

wall. This endorsement allows them the option of doing that. Again this endorsement is optional.

Comment:

The base homeowners policy routinely covers resident relatives (and their dependents 21 and younger) living at

the residence. It also includes coverage for full time students away at school limited to a certain age. We do not

see any reference made to full time students as noted above. If the form is not used it excludes coverage for

resident relatives and students which creates a coverage gap that is contrary to public policy and detrimental to

the insured. (NH RSA 412:5 I - Not a public good) Please explain the intent and application of this endorsement

Response 31Comments: This endorsement provides coverage for wrongful acts which means actual or alleged error, misleading

statement, act or omission, neglect or brreach of duty committeed by an insured. This coverage can be compared to a

Directors & Officers Coverage but it is not that coverage. This coverage is actually a broadening of coverage as it

provides for the above in addition to bodily injury and property damage. This coverage also is an optional coverage that

can be purchased by the insured.

Example: Our insured is a non paid member of a non-profit organizaitons such as the PTA, Church, Boy Scouts, Girl

Scouts, 4-H ro Garden Club. That organization doesn't carry Directors & Officers Coverage or if they do it is minimal. If

our insured were to create a Financial Harm because they advised against purchasing insurance or made a wrong

investment for which the organization lost a lot of money, the base policy would not cover these as neither are "bodily

injury", "property damage", or "personal injury" but this endorsement would provide coverage for $50,000.

Related Objection 1

Applies To:

Volunteer Wronful Acts Coverage, OM 24 80, 06-09 (Form)

Comment:

Exclusion #1requires further explanation. Please explain how a wrongful act does not result in a bodily injury,

property damage or personal injury? Liability coverage usually requires there to be bodily injury, property damage

or personal injury to a third party caused by the insured to trigger coverage. Please provide at least two examples

wrongful acts coverage that does not encompass bodily injury, property damage, or personal injury.

Comment:

When and why would this form be attached to the base homeowners policy? The form does not specify what

Response 36Comments: This form is an optional endorsement that the insured can purchase to provide additional coverage that is

not provided in the base policy. The base policy with the HO 00 02 and HO 00 03 is named perils, this form provides for

direct physical loss unless caused by a peril that is excluded. In addition the base policy limits gun coverage for the peril

of theft to $2500 so if the insured had a gun or guncollection totalling more than the $2500 limit stolen they would not

have adequate coverage. This endorsement allows the insured to protect their property for higher valued items or

schedules than covered under the base policy. The policy also would not provide coverage for any item that was

scheduled so there is no credit applied to the base policy as coverage would not apply under the base homeowners if

they purchased specific insurance on the item with the IM 212 Gun Coverage Form.

endorsements can be added to provide Theft Coverage. The are added at no premium charge.

Response 38Comments: These forms are optional forms that we provide for insureds/agents to have the ability to provide coverage

for insureds who might have this particular exposure. Granted the forms do appear to be suited to a commercial farming

operation which they could be, but in New Hampshire the homeowners manual indicates that farming must be incidental

to the insured.

Example of use: If the insured had a 4-H animal that they want basic coverage for fire/wind (No mortality) the base

policy does not cover animals, the livestock coverage forms could be used to cover that animal.

The Farm Machinery endorsements once again provide coverage for direct physical loss unless caused by a peril that is

excluded. The base HO 00 02 and HO 00 03 are named perils for contents and therefore these endorsements allow for

a broad option for insureds to purchase broader coverage for their equipment. Some insureds also may have larger

tractors than a normal lawn tractor that they want specifically insured for coverage and maybe required to be specifically

insured for their loss payee which these forms would allow.

Response 40Comments: Like the IM-901 in Objection #39, this is an optional endorsement that can be used to cover items that would

not fit into one of the categories of the HO 04 60 Schedule Personal Property Endorsement. Since this is an optional

endorsement the coverges should be discussed with the insured and there would be no notice of reduction of coverage.

If we were to automatically add this endorsement then yes there would be a notice of reduction, but since this an

optional coveage the coverage should be discussed before the insured selects the endorsement.

Comments:

In response to you note dated 1/26/12 you are correct that the material misrepresentation is relative to a claim. As to the

increase in hazard, any mid term cancellation would be required to verify the hazard did not exist at inception of the

policy and was acquired after the policy was in effect. The policy can also be cancelled at renewal if it no longer meets

the eligibility requirements of the filed and approved underwriting guidelines.

Objection IL UO 27, Exotic Animals Exclusion

Comments:

Gail,

We are just wanting verification on policy wording interpretation with regards to actions allowable concerning exotic

animals. Our guidelines indicate that new business is prohibit for accounts that have exotic or non-domesticated

animals. My understanding is that would be allowable. Our concern and the reason for the exclusion is if the insured

lied to us at the time of application or has purchased an "exotic" animal after we have issued the account. (You may

remember from our telephone conversation this is coming as a result of the incident in Zanesville Ohio that hit the

National News in 2011).

You indicated that we can not apply a sweeping exclusion for these types of animals and that we would have to have

the insureds signature on this type of exclusion., We will ablde by that, but you indicated that the

endorsement/exclusion would require the animal's name? I am not sure if these animals carry names. Also if we had

the exclusion on for 3 animals and they purchased another one, would we require a new signature to add the 4th

animal? I don't believe it would be excluded which would now create a problem as 3 would be and the other 4th one

wouldn't be.

Our interpretation of the HO 01 28 filed and approved by ISO appears to allow us to cancel the policy mid-term giving 45

days based upon a couple of items: (C.2.c.2) Discovery of material misrepresentation by the named insured in pursuing

a claim under the policy. The misrepresentation being if they had the animals at the time of the application and did not

tell us and if we had known we would not have written the account. The only issue here is that it appears the insured

must be pursuing a claim. The other statement is (C.2.c.3) Discovery of grossly negligent acts or omissions by the

insured substantially increasing any of the hazards insured against. The "typical" insured I don't believe normally has

these types of animals so this to us would be an increas in hazard.

Do these two items allow us to cancel a homeonwer policy mid-term with the appropriate 45-day notice.

THIS ENDORSEMENT CHANGES THE POLICY. PLEASE READ IT CAREFULLY.

RECREATIONAL MOTOR VEHICLE LIABILITY ENDORSEMENT - NEW HAMPSHIRE

Personal Liability or Farm Personal Liability is extended to apply to damages for bodily injury or property damage for which an insured becomes legally responsible and Medical Payments to Others because of an accident arising out of: A. the ownership, operation, maintenance, use,

loading, or unloading of a recreational motor vehicle;

B. the entrustment by an insured of a recreational motor vehicle to any person; or

C. vicarious liability, whether or not statutorily imposed, for the actions of a minor child using a recreational motor vehicle.

Damages include pre-judgment interest awarded against the insured. We will settle or defend, as we consider appropriate, any claim or suit asking for these damages. In addition to our limit, we will pay all defense costs we incur. Our duty to settle or defend ends when our limit for this coverage has been exhausted. We have no duty to defend any suit or settle any claim for bodily injury or property damage not covered under this endorsement.

DEFINITIONS As used in this endorsement, the following definitions apply: A. You and your mean the named insured shown

in the Declarations, and the spouse if a resident of the same household.

B. We, us, and our mean the company providing this insurance.

C. Bodily injury means bodily harm, sickness, or disease, including death that results.

D. Business includes trade, profession, or occupation whether full or part time.

E. Family member means a person related to you by blood, marriage, or adoption who is a resident of your household. This includes a ward or foster child.

F. Limit means the amount of coverage that applies as shown in the Declarations.

G. Occupying means in, getting in, on, out, or off. H. Property damage means physical injury to,

destruction of, or loss of use of tangible property.

I. Recreational motor vehicle means a motorized land vehicle, a trailer, or attached equipment operated by you or any family member, designed for recreational use off public roads including, but not limited to, snowmobiles, tri-carts, all-terrain vehicles, similar motorized vehicles, and motorized kick scooters with an engine size under 30 cc's and does not exceed 25 miles per hour. Recreational motor vehicle does not include any two-wheeled motorized vehicle including, but not limited to, motorcycles, motorbikes, trail motorcycles, dirt bikes, mini-bikes, motor scooters, or mopeds. Recreational motor vehicle also does not include any vehicle subject to motor vehicle registration which is designed and equipped for use on public roads.

J. Terms means all provisions, limitations, exclusions, conditions, and definitions that apply to this policy.

K. Your recreational motor vehicle means any recreational motor vehicle you or any family member own on the date you or any family member become owner. This includes a recreational motor vehicle if leased by you or any family member: 1. under a written agreement; and 2. for a continuous period of at least six months.

When used in this endorsement, the definition of insured is replaced with the following: Insured means: A. you or any family member for the ownership,

maintenance, or use of any recreational motor vehicle;

B. any other person using your recreational motor vehicle with your permission provided that the actual operation or use is within the scope of such permission;

C. for your recreational motor vehicle, any person or organization but only with respect to legal responsibility for acts or omissions of a person for whom coverage is afforded under this endorsement; and

D. for any recreational motor vehicle you do not own, any person or organization but only with respect to legal responsibility for acts or omissions of you or any family member for whom coverage is afforded under this endorsement. This provision applies only if the person or organization does not own or hire the recreational motor vehicle.

Page 2 of 3 CP-164-NH (01-12).DOC

SUPPLEMENTARY PAYMENTS In addition to our limit, we will pay on behalf of an insured: A. Interest accruing after a judgment is entered in

any suit we defend. Our duty to pay interest ends when we offer to pay that part of the judgment which does not exceed our limit for this coverage.

B. Reasonable expenses incurred at our request.

EXCLUSIONS The following additional exclusions apply: A. We do not provide Liability Coverage for any

insured: 1. for property damage to property owned or

being transported by an insured; 2. for property damage to property:

a. rented to; b. used by; or c. in the care of; that insured. This exclusion (A.2.) does not apply to property damage to a residence or private garage;

3. for bodily injury to an employee of that insured during the course of employment. This Exclusion (A.3.) does not apply to bodily injury to a domestic employee unless workers' compensation benefits are required or available for that domestic employee;

SECTION I - CONDITIONS C. Loss Settlement is deleted and replaced by the

following: SECTION I - CONDITIONS C. Loss Settlement. In this Condition C., the terms

"cost to repair or replace" and "functional re-placement cost" do not include the increased costs incurred to comply with the enforcement of any ordinance or law, except to the extent that coverage for these increased costs is provided in E.11. Ordinance Or Law under Section I - Prop-erty Coverages. Covered property losses are set-tled as follows: a. Property of the following types:

(1) Personal property; (2) Awnings, carpeting, household appli-

ances, outdoor antennas and outdoor equipment, whether or not attached to buildings; and

(3) Structures that are not buildings; at actual cash value at the time of loss but not more than the amount required to repair or re-place.

b. Buildings covered under Coverage A or B: (1) If, at the time of loss, the amount of insur-

ance in this policy on the damaged build-ing is 80% or more of the "functional re-placement cost" of the building immedi-ately before the loss; and you contract for repair or replacement of the damaged building for the same use, within 180 days of the damage unless we and you other-wise agree, we will pay, after application of any deductible, the lesser of the follow-ing amounts:

(a) The limit of liability under this policy that applies to the building; or

(b) The necessary amount actually spent to repair or replace the damaged building on a "functional replacement cost" basis. However, if this amount is less than the actual cash value of that part of the damaged building, we will settle the loss on an actual cash value basis.

(2) If you do not make claim under Paragraph b.(1) above, we will pay, after application of any deductible, the least of the follow-ing amounts: (a) The limit of liability under this policy

that applies to the building; or (b) The actual cash value of the dam-

aged part of the building. (3) If, at the time of loss, the amount of insur-

ance in this policy on the damaged build-ing is less than 80% of the "functional re-placement cost" of the building immedi-ately before the loss, we will pay the greater of the following amounts, but not more than the limit of liability under this policy that applies to the building: (a) The actual cash value of that part of

the building damaged; or (b) That proportion of the cost to repair

or replace: (i) After application of any deducti-

ble; and (ii) Without deduction for deprecia-

tion; that part of the building damaged, which the total amount of insurance in this policy on the damaged building bears to 80% of the "functional re-placement cost" of the building.

(4) To determine the amount of insurance re-quired to equal 80% of the "functional re-placement cost" of the building immedi-ately before the loss, do not include the value of:

(b) Those supports in (a) above which are below the surface of the ground inside the foundation walls, if there is no basement; and

(c) Underground flues, pipes, wiring and drains.

(5) If the actual value of the damage is less than the "functional replacement cost" then: (a) We will pay no more than the actual

cash value of the damage until re-placement is complete. Once re-placement is complete, we will settle the loss according to the provisions of b.(1) and b.(3) above. However, if the cost to functionally repair the damage is both:

(i) Less than 5% of the amount of insurance in this policy on the building; and

(ii) Less than $2,500; we will settle the loss according to the provisions of b.(1) and b.(3) above whether or not replacement is com-plete.

(b) You may disregard the "functional re-placement cost" loss settlement pro-visions and make claim under this policy for loss to buildings on an ac-tual cash value basis. You may then make claim for any additional liability according to the provisions of this Condition C. Loss Settlement, provided you notify us of your intent to do so within 180 days of the date of loss.

UNDERWRITING GUIDELINES

MAN-39 (01-12) Guidelines Page 4 HMS MANUAL.DOC

A. RISK SELECTION PHILOSOPHY The property being insured must be in excellent condition, and pride of ownership should be evident. The agent should be proud to say they are the agent of record for the risk. To assist with knowing if the risk qualifies for Casco Indemnity’s Homeowner program, the property should be seen by the agency prior to coverage being bound.

B. BINDING AUTHORITY Agents are granted binding authority as defined and restricted in the Underwriting Guide. If a paper application is submitted, a fully completed, signed current edition date application must be received by the Company within 14 days of the requested effective date for applications submitted to the Company. All required supplemental applications, forms, and photos must also be provided within 14 days of the requested effective date. Binders are not acceptable. Policy change requests received more than 30 days after the requested effective date are subject to underwriting approval. Agent binding authority is limited during severe weather, earthquakes, and other catastrophes as follows: Severe Weather – No coverage may be bound on new business or by endorsement to in-force policies if the National Weather Service has issued a severe weather watch or warning for a specific area for the duration of the watch/warning. This includes, but is not limited to, watches/warnings for rain, wind, flood, snow, ice, tornado, or named storm. Earthquake – Earthquake coverage may not be bound on new business or by endorsement to in-force policies in a "restricted area" for 30 days following an earthquake tremor of 4.0 or more on the Richter Scale. This "restricted area" will include all properties within 200 miles from the epicenter of such earthquake. A notice will be issued if the moratorium is extended beyond ten days due to continued aftershocks. Other Catastrophes – In the event of a natural or man-made catastrophe, no coverage may be bound on new business or by endorsement to in-force policies for the duration of the event. In addition, no coverage may be bound in an area currently evacuated or on evacuation notice. This includes, but is not limited to, such events as fire, high wind, hail, flooding, hurricane, or named storm. Exceptions – The circumstances of any particular event may require amendment of these guidelines and we reserve the right to suspend your binding authority as we deem appropriate. We will notify you when this occurs.

H. INSURANCE SCORING

We evaluate Insurance Score at new business and again on every third renewal of the policy:

• If there is only one insured, that score is used. • If there are two insureds and both are actual scores, the higher of the two is used. • If there are two insureds and one score is No Hit (V) or Unscored (W), and the other is an actual

score, the actual score is used.

UNDERWRITING GUIDELINES

MAN-39 (01-12) Guidelines Page 4 HMS MANUAL.DOC

A. RISK SELECTION PHILOSOPHY The property being insured must be in excellent condition, and pride of ownership should be evident. The agent should be proud to say they are the agent of record for the risk. To assist with knowing if the risk qualifies for Casco Indemnity’s Homeowner program, the property should be seen by the agency prior to coverage being bound.

B. BINDING AUTHORITY Agents are granted binding authority as defined and restricted in the Underwriting Guide. If a paper application is submitted, a fully completed, signed current edition date application must be received by the Company within 14 days of the requested effective date for applications submitted to the Company. All required supplemental applications, forms, and photos must also be provided within 14 days of the requested effective date. Binders are not acceptable. Policy change requests received more than 30 days after the requested effective date are subject to underwriting approval. Agent binding authority is limited during severe weather, earthquakes, and other catastrophes as follows: Severe Weather – No coverage may be bound on new business or by endorsement to in-force policies if the National Weather Service has issued a severe weather watch or warning for a specific area for the duration of the watch/warning. This includes, but is not limited to, watches/warnings for rain, wind, flood, snow, ice, tornado, or named storm. Earthquake – Earthquake coverage may not be bound on new business or by endorsement to in-force policies in a "restricted area" for 30 days following an earthquake tremor of 4.0 or more on the Richter Scale. This "restricted area" will include all properties within 200 miles from the epicenter of such earthquake. A notice will be issued if the moratorium is extended beyond ten days due to continued aftershocks. Other Catastrophes – In the event of a natural or man-made catastrophe, no coverage may be bound on new business or by endorsement to in-force policies for the duration of the event. In addition, no coverage may be bound in an area currently evacuated or on evacuation notice. This includes, but is not limited to, such events as fire, high wind, hail, flooding, hurricane, or named storm. Exceptions – The circumstances of any particular event may require amendment of these guidelines and we reserve the right to suspend your binding authority as we deem appropriate. We will notify you when this occurs.

C. COASTAL TERRITORIES Properties located in the following Zip Codes and located within 1 mile of the coast, must have met the requirements for acceptable loss mitigation on all exterior openings. In addition, a mandatory hurricane deductible of $2,500 will be applied to the policy. Zip Code City Zip Code City Zip Code City

Named Storm Deductible

When the National Hurricane Center has issued a warning for New Hampshire concerning a named storm, we will settle losses according to the provisions of the named storm deductible arising from the named storm for a period starting at the declaration of the warning and ending 24 hours after the National Hurricane Center lifts the warning or downgrades the storm to a tropical storm, tropical depression, or severe thunderstorms.

D. e-Quip'd® SUBMISSIONS e-Quip'd® is Ohio Mutual's electronic Quoting underwriting issuance printing delivery underwriting and policy issuance system that was designed to: • Quote the policy; or • Upload the policy, with Company issuance of documents. A fully completed, signed current edition date application must be on file in the Agent's office. All required forms, reports, and photos must also be on file in the Agent's office and provided within 14 days of the requested effective date. Binders are not acceptable. Periodic audits may be performed by Field and/or Underwriting personnel to verify that the signed application and all required forms, reports, and photos are on file in the agency office.

E. THE RESIDENTIAL COST ESTIMATING FORM This must be completed on all homes. The Company’s Replacement Cost Estimator on e-Quip’d® must be completed for each risk.

F. PHOTOGRAPHS Photographs of the front and rear of all dwellings and outbuildings, whether insured or not, should be submitted with the Homeowners application except those requesting HO 00 04 Coverage. NOTE: Underwriting reserves the right to request photographs of any risk. NOTE: Risk should be seen by agency prior to coverage being bound. Photos must be kept in

file.

G. INSPECTIONS We inspect most risks to determine acceptability. We share with the Agent and the Insured any conditions which are a threat to life or property. We reserve the right to order inspections and other underwriting reports on any individual risk and will do periodically. We expect compliance with any reasonable recommendations that we develop.

H. INSURANCE SCORING

We evaluate Insurance Score at new business and again on every third renewal of the policy:

• If there is only one insured, that score is used. • If there are two insureds and both are actual scores, the higher of the two is used. • If there are two insureds and one score is No Hit (V) or Unscored (W), and the other is an actual

score, the actual score is used.

We do not cover volunteer activity of an "insured" involving any "insured's" business or an organization from which an "insured" receives compensation or for which any "insured" provides professional services.

Two or more claims arising out of a single wrongful act or a series of related wrongful acts shall be deemed a single claim. Our duty to settle or defend ends when our limit of liability for this coverage has been exhausted by payment of a judgment or settlement. The limit of liability for this coverage is not in addition to the limit of liability otherwise provided for Personal Liability. Our payment of loss under this coverage is excess over any other collectible insurance. Conditions applicable to Section II - Liability Cover-ages also apply to this coverage. Exclusions We do not cover liability: 1. Based on or attributable to "bodily injury",

"property damage", or "personal injury". 2. For anything other than money damages. 3. Arising out of any fraudulent, criminal, or mali-

cious act; acts or omissions not in good faith; or which involved intentional misconduct or a know-ing violation of law; or matters deemed uninsur-able by law.

4. For fines or penalties imposed by law. 5. For libel or slander.

6. For failure to procure or maintain insurance. 7. Arising out of "insured's" dishonesty where it is

established by judgment or other final adjudica-tion that an actual dishonest purpose or intent was involved.

8. For an accounting of profits made from the purchase or sale of securities under any federal or state laws, or the failure to register securities as required.

9. Arising out of or involving discrimination in violation of any statute or law.

15. Arising out of actual, alleged, or threatened dis-charge, dispersal, seepage, migration, release, or escape of pollutants at any time, or the ingestion, inhalation, or absorption of lead or lead compounds or any loss, cost, or expense to test, monitor, clean up, remove, contain, treat, detoxify, or neutralize or in any way respond to or assess the effects of pollutants or lead. Pollutants means any solid, liquid, gaseous or thermal irritant, or contaminant including smoke, vapor, soot, fumes, acid, alkalis, chemicals, and waste (including material to be recycled or reclaimed).

3. The Amount We Pay. The smallest of the amounts shown below is the most that we will pay for a loss: a. the amount determined under "Valuation." b. the cost to repair, replace or rebuild the prop-

erty with material of like kind and quality. c. the amount of your interest in the property. d. the coverage amount shown.

This amount will be adjusted by the deductible amount, coinsurance penalty or other limitation which may apply.

4. Loss To Pairs Or Sets. If there is a loss to an item that is part of a pair or set, at your option we will pay the full actual cash value up to the coverage amount shown for the pair or set. You will give us the remainder of the pair or set. If you do not choose this option, we will pay only for a reasonable part of the actual cash value of the pair or set.

5. Loss To Parts. If there is a loss to a part of an item that consists of several parts, we will pay only for the loss to that part. A loss to a part is not considered to be a loss to the whole item.

6. Insurance Under More Than One Policy. If there is other collectible insurance that applies to a covered loss, or would have applied in the absence of this Inland Marine coverage, we will pay for the loss only after the full amount from the other insurance has been paid.

8. Losses Paid By Others. We will not pay for that part of a loss that has been paid by someone else.

LOSS PAYMENT

1. Our Options. We may:

a. pay the loss in money; or b. repair, replace or rebuild the property. We

must give the insured notice of our intent to do so within 30 days after we have received a satisfactory proof of loss.

We may take all or a part of the damaged property at the agreed or appraised value. Property that we have paid for or replaced will become our property.

2. Your Property. We will adjust all losses with you. Payment will be made to you unless a loss payee is named with respect to this Inland Marine coverage.

3. Property of Others. Loss to property of others may be adjusted with you. We reserve the right to adjust the loss with the owner. Our payment to the owner will satisfy our obligation to you for loss to this property. At our option, without cost to you, we may choose to defend you from suits which result from a covered loss to the property of others.

4. When We Pay. We will pay for a loss within 30 days after a satisfactory proof of loss is received and the amount of the loss has been agreed to in writing.

CLAIMS AGAINST OTHERS

1. Subrogation. If we pay for a loss, we may require

the insured to assign to us the right of recovery against others. We will not pay for a loss if the insured impairs this right to recover. The insured's right to recover from others may be waived in writing before a loss occurs.

2. Loan Receipts. When we believe that a loss can be recovered from others: a. we may make an advance payment to you in

the form of a loan. b. at our expense, we will be allowed to bring suit

in the insured's name against those who are responsible for the loss.

c. the loan will be repaid from the amount recovered.

3. Recoveries. The insured must notify us or we must notify the insured promptly if either receives a recovery for a loss which we have paid. The costs that are incurred by either party in making the recovery are to be reimbursed first. We are entitled to the surplus up to the amount that we have paid for the loss. The insured may then keep any excess.

DISAGREEMENTS

1. Appraisal. If you and we do not agree on the

amount of the loss, the actual cash value of the property or the cost to repair or replace the property, either party may demand that these amounts be determined by appraisal.

If either party makes a written demand for appraisal, each will select a competent, independ-ent appraiser and notify the other of the appraiser's identity within 20 days after the receipt of the written demand. The two appraisers will select a competent, impartial umpire. If the two appraisers are unable to agree upon an umpire within 15 days, you or we can ask a judge of a court in the state where the appraisal is pending to select an umpire.

The appraisers will determine: a. the amount of the loss; b. the actual cash value of the property; and c. the cost to repair or replace the property.

Each amount will be stated separately.

If the appraisers submit a written report of an agreement to us, the agreement will establish these amounts. If the appraisers fail to agree within a reasonable time, they will submit only their differences to the umpire. A written agreement by any two of these three will establish the amounts stated above.

Each appraiser will be paid by the party selecting that appraiser. The compensation of the umpire and other expenses of the appraisal will be shared equally by you and us.

2. Suit Against Us. No suit to recover for a loss may be brought against us unless: a. all the terms of this Inland Marine coverage

have been complied with; and b. the suit is commenced within one year after the

loss.

OTHER POLICY CONDITIONS 1. Conformity With Statutes. The terms of this

Inland Marine coverage in conflict with statutes of the state where this policy is issued are changed to conform to those statutes.

2. Continuous Policies. If this policy is issued on a continuous basis (with no specific date of expira-tion), we may substitute or we may add at each anniversary date the forms and endorsements then authorized for use with this Inland Marine coverage.

3. Liberalization. If a revision of a form or endorse-ment which would broaden coverage without an additional premium is adopted during the policy period, or within 6 months before the Inland Marine coverage is effective, the broadened coverage will apply.

4. Misrepresentation, Concealment or Fraud. This Inland Marine coverage is void if before or after a loss: a. the insured has concealed or misrepresented:

(1) a material fact or circumstance that relates to this insurance or the subject thereof; or

(2) an insured's interest herein.

b. there has been fraud or false swearing by an insured with regard to a matter that relates to this insurance or the subject thereof.

5. No Benefit To Bailee. This Inland Marine cover-age will not benefit those who are paid to assume custody of the covered property.
