2 INTRODUCTION COMMERCIAL AUTO The ISO Business Auto policy will be used to provide Commercial Auto coverage. We will generally write this coverage only when we provide the customer s Commercial Property and Liability insurance and there is no hauling for hire exposure. The Commercial Auto program is designed to provide coverage for eligible Commercial Auto insureds whose radius of use is within 200 miles of the place of garaging and whose regular operation is within the seven states (Iowa, Minnesota, Nebraska, North Dakota, Oklahoma, South Dakota and Wisconsin) where North Star writes auto policies. APPLICATION PROCEDURE The Business Auto ACORD application shall be used to apply for coverage for vehicles of the Commercial type. When an application is prepared it shall be sent to our office the same day if coverage is to begin immediately. The policy term begins at 12:01 A.M. at the address of the insured on the effective date; however, coverage will not begin prior to the time the application is prepared. If coverage is bound, do not hold the application pending receipt of additional information from the applicant. The application should be submitted with a notation indicating that additional information will follow. Applications should be completed in detail. All applications must be signed by the applicant and the agent. List all drivers, including family members that will drive company vehicles, and employees who drive their own vehicles on company business. This includes all full-time and part-time operators. An updated drivers list will be requested periodically. When the policy covers private passenger type vehicles titled in the name of the business, and used for personal use, the names and dates of birth for all household members, including children not of driving age must be furnished on the application. When an application is received and coverage is bound, a policy will be issued. If it is determined that the company underwriting requirements are not met, the policy will be mailed and a cancellation notice issued with a pro rata earned premium charged. Flat cancellations are not permitted. If an agent wants to determine if an applicant is acceptable, he may submit a signed application, indicating COVERAGE NOT BOUND, and we will conduct our underwriting review. It is important to furnish complete information on the questionability of the applicant with the application. Upon completion of our review, we will advise if the applicant is acceptable. The application will be retained in our office. Minnesota New Business North Star Mutual Ins. Co. NSCA - 1 Renewals

3 COVERED AUTO DESIGNATION SYMBOLS ISO s Covered Auto Designation Symbols are used to indicate the autos that are covered autos in the policy. The available coverage symbols are as follows: 5 = OWNED AUTOS SUBJECT TO NO-FAULT Only those autos the insured owns that are required to have No-Fault benefits in the state where they are licensed or principally garaged. This includes those autos the insured acquires ownership of after the policy begins provided they are required to have No- Fault benefits in the state where they are licensed or principally garaged. 6 = OWNED AUTOS SUBJECT TO A COMPULSORY UNINSURED MOTORIST LAW Only those autos the insured owns that because of the law in the state where they are licensed or principally garaged are required to have and cannot reject Uninsured Motorists Coverage. This includes those autos the insured acquires ownership of after the policy begins provided they are subject to the same state uninsured motorists requirement. 7 = SPECIFICALLY DESCRIBED AUTOS Only those autos described in Item Three of the Declarations for which a premium charge is shown (and for Liability Coverage any trailers the insured does not own while attached to any power unit described in Item Three). 8 = HIRED AUTOS ONLY Only those autos the insured leases, hires, rents, or borrows. This does not include any auto the insured leases, hires, rents, or borrows from any of the insured s employees, partners, members or members of their households. 9 = NONOWNED AUTOS ONLY Only those autos the insured does not own, lease, hire, rent, or borrow that are used in connection with the insured s business. This includes autos owned by the insured s employees, partners, members or members of their households but only while used in the insured s business or personal affairs. 19 = MOBILE EQUIPMENT SUBJECT TO COMPULSORY OR FINANCIAL RESPONSIBILITY OR OTHER MOTOR VEHICLE INSURANCE LAWS Only those autos that are land vehicles and that would qualify under the definition of mobile equipment under the policy if they were not subject to a compulsory or financial responsibility law or other motor vehicle insurance law where they are licensed or principally garaged.

22 FINANCIAL RESPONSIBILITY LAWS CERTIFICATION A. Financial Responsibility Filings required by the various states normally will not be made by North Star since, in most cases, a person requiring such a filing will not be eligible for coverage. B. The state requires the filing of a Financial Responsibility Certificate (SR-22) when the auto insurance policy serves as the required evidence of financial responsibility following conviction on traffic code violations or upon failure to satisfy judgment arising out of a motor vehicle accident. C. Certificates can be issued only by the North Star Home Office, and then only if complete information concerning the reason for the filing is submitted by the agent. The request for the certificate must clearly identify the person for whom the company will be making the filing. A Financial Responsibility Certificate will not be issued unless all autos owned by the applicant are insured by North Star. D. One (SDIP) Safe Driving Record Point shall be applied if a filing is made. Note: In Minnesota, financial responsibility filings are not required since Minnesota does not have a financial responsibility law, but rather has a no fault law. In the event that a motorist is convicted of operating a vehicle without insurance, the company that does insure the motorist must file a certificate of insurance with the Department of Public Safety s Division of Driver and Vehicle Services.
