monthly basis. “You” must give “us” proof of such loss, cost, or expense. 2. Damage To Personal Property Of Others - At “our” option, a covered loss may be adjusted with and paid: a. to “you” on behalf of the owner; or b. to the owner. If “we” pay the owner, “we” do not have to pay an “insured”.

POLICY CONDITIONS 1. Abandonment Of Property – “You” may not abandon the property to “us” unless “we” agree. 2. Appraisal - If “you” and “we” do not agree as to the value or the amount of the loss, either may demand an appraisal of such loss. In this event,

“you” and “we” will each select a competent and impartial appraiser within 20 days after receiving a written request from the other. The two appraisers will select a competent and impartial umpire. If they do not agree on an umpire within 15 days, “you” or “we” may ask a judge of a

court of record of the state where the “insured premises” is located to make the selection. A written agreement of the two appraisers will set the amount of loss. If the appraisers fail to agree, they will submit their differences to the

umpire. The written agreement of any two of these three will set the amount of the loss. “You” will pay the expense of “your” appraiser and “we” will pay “our” appraiser. “You” and “we” will share equally the expense of the umpire and the other expenses of the appraisal.

Under no circumstances will an appraisal be used to interpret policy “terms”, determine causation, or determine whether or not a loss is covered under this policy.

3. Assignment - This policy may not be assigned without “our” written consent. 4. Cancellation And Nonrenewal – Refer to state-specific amendatory endorsement for cancellation and nonrenewal provisions. 5. Change, Modification, Or Waiver Of Policy Terms a. A waiver or change of the “terms” of this policy must be issued by “us” in writing to be valid. b. If “we” adopt a revision that broadens coverage under this edition of “our” policy without an additional premium, the broadened coverage

will apply to “your” policy as of the date “we” adopt the revision in the state in which the “insured premises” is located. This applies only to revisions adopted within 60 days prior to or during the policy period shown on the “declarations”.

However, this does not apply to revisions adopted as a part of an overall program revision that both broadens and restricts coverage, whether “we” bring out the program revision by introducing:

1) a subsequent edition of “our” policy; or 2) an endorsement that amends “our” policy. c. “Our” request for an appraisal or examination under oath does not waive policy “terms”. 6. Conformity With Statute – “Terms” in conflict with the laws of the state in which the “insured premises” is located are changed to conform to

such laws. 7. Death – The “terms” in a. and b. below apply if any person named as the “insured” on the “declarations” or that person’s spouse, if a resident of

the same household, dies. a. “We” provide coverage for the legal representative of the deceased person: 1) but only with respect to the deceased person’s premises and property covered by this policy at the time of death; and 2) only to the extent that coverage is provided by this policy. b. “Insured” includes: 1) an “insured” who is a member of the deceased person’s household at the time of the deceased person’s death, but only while a

resident of the “insured premises”; and 2) persons having proper, temporary custody of the deceased person’s covered property, but only with respect to such property and only

until such time as a legal representative is appointed and qualified. 8. Examination Of Books And Records – “We” may examine and audit “your” books and records that relate to this policy during the policy period

and within 3 years after the policy has expired. 9. Inspections – “We” have the right, but are not obligated, to inspect “your” property and operations. This inspection may be made by “us” or may

be made on “our” behalf. An inspection or its resulting advice or report does not warrant that “your” property or operations are safe, healthful, or in compliance with laws, rules, or regulations. Inspections or reports are for “our” benefit only.

10. Loss Payable Clause – With respect to those items of personal property for which a loss payee is shown on the “declarations”, the definition of “insured” is extended to include that loss payee, but only with respect to those items of personal property.

If “we” cancel or do not renew this policy, “we” will so notify, in writing, any loss payees shown on the “declarations”. 11. Misrepresentation, Concealment, Or Fraud - “We” do not provide coverage for any “insured” if before or after a loss:

a. any “insured” has willfully concealed or misrepresented a material fact or circumstance that relates to this insurance or the subject thereof; or

b. there has been fraudulent or false swearing by any “insured” with regard to a matter that relates to this insurance or the subject thereof. This applies even with respect to an “insured” who was not involved in the concealment, misrepresentation, fraudulent conduct, or false swearing.

12. Mortgage, Secured Party, And Lender’s Loss Payable Clause a. If a mortgagee is named on the “declarations”, a loss payable for a covered “residence”, building, or structure will be paid to the mortgagee

and “you” as interests appear. If more than one mortgagee is named, the order of payment will be the same as the order of precedence of the mortgages. The word mortgagee includes trustee.

b. If a secured party is named on the “declarations”, a loss payable on property subject to the security interest will be paid to the secured party and “you”. If there is more than one security interest in the same property, the order of payment will be the same as their order of priority.

However, the secured party’s interest is not covered for “your” conversion, embezzlement, or secretion of encumbered property in “your” possession, unless specifically insured against and premium paid for such.

c. If a lender is named on the “declarations”, a loss payable on property on which the lender has an insurable interest will be paid to the lender and “you”.

d. If “we” deny “your” claim, that denial does not apply to a valid claim of the mortgagee, secured party, or lender if the mortgagee, secured party, or lender has:

1) notified “us” of change in ownership, occupancy, or substantial change in risk of which the mortgagee, secured party, or lender became aware;

2) paid the premium due under this policy on demand if “you” neglected to pay the premium; and 3) submitted a signed, sworn proof of loss within 60 days after receiving notice from “us” if “you” failed to do so. All “terms” of this policy apply to the mortgagee, secured party, or lender unless changed by this clause. e. If “we” cancel or do not renew this policy, “we” will notify the mortgagees, secured parties, or lenders named on the “declarations” at least

ten days before the date cancellation or nonrenewal takes effect. f. Payment To Mortgagee – If “we” pay the mortgagee for a loss and deny payment to “you”, “we” are subrogated, up to the amount “we”

paid for the loss, to all the rights of the mortgagee granted under the mortgage on the property. Subrogation will not impair the right of the mortgagee to recover the full amount of the mortgagee’s claim. At “our” option, “we” may pay to the mortgagee the whole principal on the mortgage plus the accrued interest. In this event, “we” shall receive a full assignment and transfer of the mortgage and all securities held as collateral to the mortgage debt.

g. Payment To A Secured Party – If “we” pay the secured party for a loss and deny payment to “you”, “we” are subrogated, up to the amount “we” paid for the loss, to all the rights of the secured party granted under the security agreement. Subrogation will not impair the right of the secured party to recover the full amount of the security agreement. At “our” option, “we” may pay the secured party the remaining amount due on the security agreement, plus the accrued interest. In this event, “we” shall receive full assignment of the security agreement and securities held as collateral for the agreement.

h. Payment To Lender – If “we” pay the lender for a loss and deny payment to “you”, “we” are subrogated, up to the amount “we” paid for the loss, to the rights of the lender to collect on the debt from “you”. Subrogation will not impair the right of the lender to collect the rest of the debt from “you”. At “our” option, “we” may pay the lender the remaining amount due plus the accrued interest. In this event, “we” shall receive a full assignment of the lender’s interest and any instruments given as security for the debt.

13. No Benefit To Bailee – Coverage under this policy will not directly or indirectly benefit those who are paid to assume custody of the covered property.

14. Policy Period – This policy covers only “occurrences” that take place during the policy period. 15. Recoveries - This applies if “we” pay for a loss and lost or damaged property is recovered, or payment is made by those responsible for the

loss. “You” must inform “us” or “we” must inform “you” if either recovers property or receives payment. Proper costs incurred by either party are paid first. At “your” option. “you” may keep the recovered property. If “you” keep the recovered property, the amount of the claim paid, or a lesser amount to which “we” agree, must be returned to “us”.

If the claim paid is less than the agreed loss due to a deductible, or other limiting “terms”, the recovery is prorated between “you” and “us” based on the interest of each in the loss.

16. Subrogation - If “we” pay for a loss, “we” may require that an “insured” assign to “us” the right of recovery up to the amount “we” pay. “We” are not liable for a loss if, after the loss, an “insured” impairs “our” right to recover against others. An “insured” may waive his or her right to recover, in writing, and before a loss occurs, without affecting coverage.

In the event that “we” require such an assignment, the “insured” must: a. sign and give to “us” all related documents; and b. cooperate with “us”. 17. Suit Against Us - No suit may be brought against “us” unless all the “terms” of this policy have been complied with and the suit is brought

within two years after the loss. If a law of the state where the “insured premises” is located makes this time period invalid, the suit must be brought within the shortest time

period allowed by the law. 18. Volcanic Eruption – All volcanic eruption that occurs within a 72-hour period constitutes a single “occurrence”.
