includes a deduction for depreciation, however caused. The smallest of the following amounts is used in applying the Loss Settlement Terms:

a. the cost to repair or replace the property with

materials of like kind and quality; b. the actual cash value of the property at the time

of loss; or c. (applies only to mobile homes) the difference in

the actual cash value just before the loss and the actual cash value just after the loss.

2. Deductible -- This applies to Coverages A, B, and

C; Debris Removal; Trees, Plants, Shrubs and Lawns; and Tenant's Improvements. It applies to all perils insured against unless otherwise shown.

We pay that part of the loss over the deductible. Not

more than one deductible applies per occurrence. If this policy covers more than one residence, the deductible applies separately to each residence.

3. Loss to a Pair or Set -- If there is loss to an item

which is part of a pair or set, we pay only to replace or repair the item, or we pay the difference in the actual cash value of the pair or set just before the loss and the actual cash value just after the loss.

4. Insurance Under More Than One Coverage -- If

more than one coverage of this policy applies to a loss, we pay no more than the actual loss.

5. Insurance Under More Than One Policy -- If there

is other insurance that applies to the loss, we pay our share of the loss. Our share is that part of the loss that the limit of this policy bears to the total amount of insurance that applies to the loss.

6. Restoration of Limits -- Each loss we pay under

this policy does not reduce the limits available over the policy term.

PAYMENT OF LOSS 1. Your Property -- We adjust each loss with you. We

pay an insured loss within 30 days after an acceptable proof of loss is received and the amount of the loss is agreed to in writing. If you and we do not agree, we pay within 30 days after the filing of an appraisal award with us. Payment is made to you unless a loss payee is named.

2. Fair Rental Value – If the insured premises is unfit

for use for more than one month, covered costs are paid on a monthly basis. You must give us proof of such costs.

3. Damage to Personal Property of Others -- At our

option, an insured 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 you. 4. Our Options -- We may: a. pay the loss in money; or b. rebuild, repair or replace the property. We must

give you notice of our intent to do so within 30 days after we receive an acceptable proof of loss.

We may take all or part of the damaged property at

the agreed or appraised value. Property paid for or replaced by us becomes ours.

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 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 independent 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 of record in the state where the property is located to select an umpire.

For each building item and each item of personal

property, 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

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 costs of the appraisal will be shared equally by you and us.

If we make the written demand for an appraisal, we

will pay: a. the reasonable and necessary cost for your

appraiser; and b. your share of the cost for the umpire. 3. Assignment -- This policy may not be assigned

without our written consent.

your agent prompt notice (We may request written notice).

The notice to us must state:

b. the names and addresses of all known potential claimants and witnesses.

2. Other Duties -- You must take all reasonable steps to protect covered property at and after an insured loss to avoid further loss. We will pay the reasonable costs incurred by you for necessary repairs or emergency measures performed solely to protect covered property from further damage by a peril insured against if a peril insured against has already caused a loss to covered property. You must keep an accurate record of such costs. However, we will not pay for such repairs or emergency measures performed on property which has not been damaged by a peril insured against. This does not increase our limit.

At our request you must:

a. give us a signed, sworn proof of loss, within 60 days after our request, that shows:

1) the time, place, and the details of the loss;

2) your interest and the interest of all others in the property. This includes all mortgages and liens;

3) other policies that may cover the loss;

4) changes in title or use;

5) available plans and specifications of buildings;

b. submit to examination under oath in matters that relate to the loss or claim as often as we reasonably request;

c. show the damaged property as often as we reasonably request;

d. show records, including tax returns and bank records of all canceled checks that relate to the value, loss, and costs, and permit copies to be made of them as often as we reasonably request; and

HOW MUCH WE PAY FOR LOSS OR CLAIMLoss Settlement Terms -- Subject to the deductible or other limitation that applies, we pay the lesser of:

a) the limit that applies;

b) your interest in the property; or

c) the amount determined under the Replacement Cost Terms or the Actual Cash Value Terms, whichever apply.

1. Replacement Cost Terms

a. The Replacement Cost Terms apply only to buildings covered under Coverages A and B that have a permanent foundation and roof. They do not apply to:

1) mobile homes whether or not on a permanent foundation;

2) window air-conditioners;

3) awnings and canopies;

4) antennas;

Page 62: DWELLING PROPERTIES PROGRAM - Home Page - … · DWELLING PROPERTIES PROGRAM This Manual Contains Final Rates July 2014

FP-2 (01-08) Page 8 of 12 Ed 2.2

5) appliances;

6) carpets;

7) window coverings; and

8) tenant's improvements

b. In determining the replacement cost, do not include the cost of:

1) excavations;

2) brick, stone, or concrete foundations;

3) piers and other supports which are below the surface of the ground inside the foundation walls; and

4) underground flues, pipes, wiring, and drains.

c. When the cost to repair or replace exceeds the lesser of $2,500 or five percent of the limit on the damaged building, we do not pay for more than the actual cash value of the loss until repair or replacement is completed.

You may make a claim for the actual cash value amount of the loss before repairs are made. A claim for an additional amount payable under these terms must be made within six months of whichever is the latest:

1) the last date on which you received a payment for the actual cash value; or

2) the date of entry of a final order by a court declaring your right to full replacement cost.

d. If the limit on the damaged building is less than 80 percent of its replacement cost at the time of loss, the larger of the following amounts is used in applying the Loss Settlement Terms:

1) the actual cash value at the time of the loss; or

2) that part of the replacement cost of the damaged part which our limit on the building bears to 80 percent of the full current replacement cost of the building.

e. If the limit on the damaged building is at least 80 percent of its replacement cost at the time of loss, the smaller of the following amounts is used in applying the Loss Settlement Terms:

1) the cost to repair or replace the damage on the same premises using materials of like kind and quality; or

2) the amount spent to repair or replace the damage.

2. Actual Cash Value Terms -- Actual cash value includes a deduction for depreciation, however caused.

a. The Actual Cash Value Terms apply to all property not covered under the Replacement Cost Terms.

b. The smallest of the following amounts is used in applying the Loss Settlement Terms:

1) the cost to repair or replace the property with materials of like kind and quality;

2) the actual cash value of the property at the time of loss; or

3) (applies only to mobile homes) the difference in the actual cash value just before the loss and the actual cash value just after the loss.

3. Deductible -- This applies to Coverages A, B, and C; Debris Removal; Trees, Plants, Shrubs and Lawns; Glass Breakage; and Tenant's Improvements. It applies to all perils insured against unless otherwise shown.

We pay that part of the loss over the deductible. Not more than one deductible applies per occurrence. If this policy covers more than one residence, the deductible applies separately to each residence.

4. Loss to a Pair or Set -- If there is loss to an item which is part of a pair or set, we pay only to replace or repair the item, or we pay the difference in the actual cash value of the pair or set just before the loss and the actual cash value just after the loss.

5. Insurance Under More Than One Coverage -- If more than one coverage of this policy applies to a loss, we pay no more than the actual loss.

6. Insurance Under More Than One Policy -- If there is other insurance that applies to the loss, we pay our share of the loss. Our share is that part of the loss that the limit of this policy bears to the total amount of insurance that applies to the loss.

7. Restoration of Limits -- Each loss we pay under this policy does not reduce the limits available over the policy term.

PAYMENT OF LOSS 1. Your Property -- We adjust each loss with you.

We pay an insured loss within 30 days after an acceptable proof of loss is received and the amount of the loss is agreed to in writing. If you and we do not agree, we pay within 30 days after

the filing of an appraisal award with us. Payment is made to you unless a loss payee is named.

2. Additional Living Costs -- If the insured premises is unfit for use for more than one month,

Page 63: DWELLING PROPERTIES PROGRAM - Home Page - … · DWELLING PROPERTIES PROGRAM This Manual Contains Final Rates July 2014

covered costs are paid on a monthly basis. You must give us proof of such costs.

3. Damage to Personal Property of Others -- At our option, an insured 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 you.

4. Our Options -- We may:

a. pay the loss in money; or

b. rebuild, repair or replace the property. We must give you notice of our intent to do so within 30 days after we receive an acceptable proof of loss.

We may take all or part of the damaged property at the agreed or appraised value. Property paid for or replaced by us becomes ours.

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 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 independent 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 of record in the state where the property is located to select an umpire.

For each building item and each item of personal property, 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 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 costs of the appraisal will be shared equally by you and us.

If we make the written demand for an appraisal, we will pay:

a. the reasonable and necessary cost for your appraiser; and

b. your share of the cost for the umpire.

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.

If we deny your claim, that denial does not apply to a valid claim of a secured party if the secured party has:

2) paid the premium due under this policy on demand if you neglected to pay the premium; and

* LOSS SETTLEMENT INFORMATION

If the amount of insurance you carry on Dwellings insured under this policy is 80% or more of their replacement cost, you may be entitled to collect the cost of repair or replacement of the damage to the dwelling, subject to the conditions and limitations detailed in your policy. However, if you do not maintain insurance equal to at least 80% of the replacement cost of the Dwellings covered under your policy, the settlement will be made on a less favorable basis. * Not Applicable to Mobile Homes

ADDITIONAL COVERAGE AVAILABLE The Virginia Property Insurance Association provides a coverage option that can be added to your dwelling policy to cover the increased costs to repair or replace damaged property due to the application of ordinances or laws that regulate construction, repair, or demolition. Ordinance or Law Coverage provides protection when a building is damaged by a covered cause of loss and must be repaired or rebuilt in a more costly manner because the type of construction used when the building was built does not comply with current building codes. Coverage would also be provided when ordinances or laws require the demolition of damaged buildings, including undamaged portions, prior to rebuilding in compliance with current building codes. Contact your Agent if you wish to add or increase this valuable coverage, or if you would like additional information.

NAMED STORM WINDSTORM DEDUCTIBLE

(Entries required to complete the Schedule will be shown below or on the Declarations.)

Schedule

Named Storm Windstorm Deductible: $

DEFINITIONS

The following definition is added: "Named Storm" means a storm system that has been declared and named by the National Weather Service. The duration of the "named storm" includes the time period, in Virginia: a. beginning at the time a storm is designated a

"named storm";

b. continuing for the time period during which the "named storm" conditions exist anywhere in Virginia; and

c. ending 72 hours following the termination of the last "named storm" watch or warning issued for any part of Virginia by the National Weather Service.

HOW MUCH WE PAY FOR LOSS OR CLAIM

The following is added to the Deductible provision: Named Storm Windstorm Deductible -- This applies to Principal Property Coverages A, B, and C and all Incidental Property Coverages except Emergency Removal; Fire Department Service Charge; and Grave Markers.

The "named storm" windstorm deductible is the only deductible that applies to loss or damage caused by a "named storm". If a windstorm is not declared to be a "named storm" and there is loss or damage to covered property, the applicable deductible is the deductible that applies to loss due to windstorm. "We" pay only that part of the loss caused directly or indirectly by windstorm that is more than the "named storm" windstorm deductible amount shown in the Schedule above. The deductible applies per occurrence. If this policy covers more than one residence, the deductible applies separately to each residence. The deductible applies regardless of other causes or events that contribute to or aggravate the loss, whether such causes or events occur before, at the same time as, or after the loss caused by a "named storm".
