POLICYHOLDER 
DISCLOSURE NOTICE OF 
TERRORISM INSURANCE COVERAGE 
(for policies with no terrorism exclusion or sublimit) 
You are hereby notified that, under the Terrorism Risk Insurance Act (the “Act”), effective 
December 26, 2007, this policy makes available to you insurance for losses arising out of 
certain acts of terrorism. Terrorism is defined as any act certified by the Secretary of the 
Treasury, in concurrence with the Secretary of State and the Attorney General of the 
United States, to be an act of terrorism; to be a violent act or an act that is dangerous to 
human life, property or infrastructure; to have resulted in damage within the United 
States, or outside the United States in the case of an air carrier or vessel or the premises 
of a United States Mission; and to have been committed by an individual or individuals as 
part of an effort to coerce the civilian population of the United States or to influence the 
policy or affect the conduct of the United States Government by coercion. 
 
You should know that the insurance provided by your policy for losses caused by acts of 
terrorism is partially reimbursed by the United States under the formula set forth in the 
Act. Under this formula, the United States pays 85% of covered terrorism losses that 
exceed the statutorily established deductible to be paid by the insurance company 
providing the coverage. 
 
However, if aggregate insured losses attributable to terrorist acts certified under the Act 
exceed $100 billion in a Program Year (January 1 through December 31), the Treasury 
shall not make any payment for any portion of the amount of such losses that exceeds 
$100 billion. 

 

10-02-1281 (Ed. 1/2003)



If aggregate insured losses attributable to terrorist acts certified under the Act exceed 
$100 billion in a Program Year (January 1 through December 31) and we have met our 
insurer deductible under the Act, we shall not be liable for the payment of any portion of 
the amount of such losses that exceeds $100 billion, and in such case insured losses up 
to that amount are subject to pro rata allocation in accordance with procedures 
established by the Secretary of the Treasury. 
 
The portion of your policy’s annual premium that is attributable to insurance for such acts 
of terrorism is: $ -0-. 
 
If you have any questions about this notice, please contact your agent or broker.
