ZURICH AGENT/BROKER COMPENSATION DISCLOSURE

 

Dear Policyholder:

 

On behalf of Zurich, we are glad you have chosen us as your insurance company.  We look forward to meeting your insurance needs and want you to understand clearly our business relationship with the agent or broker you chose to represent your company’s interests in the placement of insurance coverages.

 

As is the case with many insurance companies in the United States, Zurich distributes many of its insurance products through agents or brokers.  This means that your agent or broker is not employed by Zurich and, in fact, may represent many insurance companies.  Because we do not employ your agent or broker, the way they are compensated may vary.  We recommend you discuss these arrangements with your agent or broker.

 

For an explanation of the nature and range of compensation Zurich may pay to your agent or broker in connection with your business, please go to http://www.zurichna.com.  Click on the information link located on the Agent/Broker Compensation Disclosure section.  Where appropriate, insert the Access Code provided below, and you will be able to view this information.  Alternatively, you may call (877) 347-6465 to obtain this type of information.

Extended Period to Discover Loss: We will pay for loss sustained by any Plan prior to the effective date of termination  or cancellation of this insurance, which is discovered by you no later than 1 year from the date of that termination or cancellation.

 

However, this extended period to discover loss terminates immediately upon the effective date of any other similar insurance obtained by you that covers the loss in whole or in part.

 

3.              If any Plan is insured jointly with any other entity under this insurance, you or the Plan Administrator must select a Limit of Insurance for the EMPLOYEE DISHONESTY COVERAGE FORM that is sufficient to provide an amount of insurance for each Plan that is at least equal to that required if each Plan were separately insured.

 

4.              If the Insured first named in the Declarations is an entity other than a Plan, any payment we make to that Insured for loss sustained by any Plan will be held by that Insured for the use and benefit of the Plan(s) sustaining the loss.

 

5.              If two or more Plans are insured under this insurance, any payment we make for loss:

 

a.               Sustained by two or more Plans or

 

b.               Of commingled funds or other property of two or more Plans

 

that arises out of one “occurrence,” is to be shared by each Plan sustaining loss in the proportion that the amount of insurance required for each such Plan under ERISA provisions bears to the total of those amounts.

 

6.              The Deductible provision of the EMPLOYEE DISHONESTY COVERAGE FORM does not apply to loss sustained by any Plan subject to ERISA which is insured under this insurance.

*Any information required to complete this Schedule, if not shown above, will be shown in the Declarations.

 

A.            Disclosure of Premium

 

In accordance with the federal Terrorism Risk Insurance Act (“TRIA”), as amended, we are required to provide you with a notice disclosing the portion of your premium, if any, attributable to the risk of loss from terrorist acts certified under that Act for lines subject to TRIA.  That portion of premium attributable is shown in the Schedule above.  The premium shown in the Schedule above is subject to adjustment upon premium audit, if applicable.

 

B.            Disclosure of Federal Participation in Payment of Terrorism Losses

 

The United States Government may pay a share of insured losses resulting from an act of terrorism. The federal share equals 85% of that portion of the amount of such insured losses that exceeds the insurer retention.  The insurer retention equals 20% of the insurer’s prior calendar year direct earned premium associated with lines of insurance subject to TRIA.  TRIA is scheduled to expire on December 31, 2014.

 

C.            Disclosure of $100 Billion Cap on All Insurer and Federal Obligations

 

If aggregate insured losses attributable to terrorist acts certified under TRIA exceed $100 billion in a Program Year (January 1 through December 31) and an insurer has met its deductible under the program, that insurer 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 Treasury.

 

D.            Availability

 

As required by TRIA, we have made available to you for lines subject to TRIA coverage for losses resulting from acts of terrorism certified under TRIA with terms, amounts and limitations that do not differ materially from those for losses arising from events other than acts of terrorism.

 

E.              Definition of Act of Terrorism under TRIA

 

TRIA defines “act of terrorism” as any act that is certified by the Secretary of the Treasury, in concurrence with the Secretary of State and the Attorney General of the United States:

 

1.                to be an act of terrorism;

2.                to be a violent act or an act that is dangerous to human life, property or infrastructure;

3.                to have resulted in damage within the United States, or outside of the United States in the case of  an air carrier (as defined in section 40102 of Title 49, United States Code) or a United States flag vessel (or a vessel based principally in the United States, on which United States income tax is paid and whose insurance coverage is subject to regulation in the United States), or the premises of a United States mission; and

4.                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.

 

No act may be certified as an act of terrorism if the act is committed as part of the course of a war declared by Congress (except for workers’ compensation) or if losses resulting from the act, in the aggregate for insurance subject to TRIA, do not exceed $5,000,000.
