RULE 35.5B - LOSS ASSESSMENT COVERAGE FOR EARTHQUAKE (CO 04 36)
Applies
to: Premier - YES*, Premier Plus - YES*, Premier Select - YES*,
Premier Condo - YES*, Premier Renters - NO
The policy may be endorsed
to extend coverage to include loss assessments resulting from a loss by
earthquake to a maximum limit of $50,000. The limit of coverage will be
based on the insured's proportionate interest in the total value of all
collectively owned buildings and structures of the corporation or association
of property owners.
Effective
October 1, 2014, Loss Assessment Coverage for Earthquake endorsement will
not be available for masonry homes built prior to 1950. Policies that
currently have Loss Assessment Coverage for Earthquake for masonry homes
built prior to 1950 will have the coverage removed at their first renewal
on or after October 1, 2014.
Calculate
the additional premium as follows:
1) Determine the appropriate
Earthquake Zone from the Territories Section using
the location of the insured structure.
2) Determine the rate
per $1,000 of coverage for the appropriate construction type of the insured
structure:
