GENERAL RULES PAF ENDORSEMENT The PAF Endorsement (MMIC 99-500) is an Other Perils form covering all perils except applicable exclusions. On the following pages, the rates and procedures are set forth for writing coverage on a variety of risks. SCHEDULED PROPERTY FLOATER ENDORSEMENT The Scheduled Property Endorsement provides (RMIC 98-037) named peril coverages of: Fire and Lightning; windstorm; Collision; Collapse of Bridges; Theft and Vandalism (optional). Other Perils Scheduled Property Endorsement (RMIC 98-039) will also be offered by MMIC on eligible classes. UNDERWRITING RULES 1. It is especially important that only individuals of good moral character be solicited for Inland Marine coverage. 2. An application signed by the insured is required in connection with all prospects for this coverage. Be sure all questions on the application form are correctly answered. 3. Rates for Inland Marine insurance are based on full insurance to value. Make sure the amount of insurance requested is 100 of the actual cash value. 4. Inventory lists and appraisals will be requested in connection with many policies. Every effort should be made to assist the Insured to determining the accurate insurable value of the property to be insured. We have developed a Personal Property Inventory form (99-551) to assist the agent and insured in compiling an inventory list. 5. 5. When filling out the inventory list on the application form, make sure each article to be insured is properly described. (Include serial numbers, model numbers, unusual markings, etc.). Provide a photograph of difficult to describe items. 6. Submit applications regarding: a. Persons of questionable moral character. b. Persons with unfavorable loss ratios. c.

On all items where appraisals are required, such appraisals must be attached to the application. If appraisals are not attached, contact MMIC non-compliance can void coverage. b. Updated appraisals are required every 3 years, since coverage is written on an actual cash value basis. Annual inflation affects the value of the jewelry, antiques, etc. Therefore, coverage should be increased or updated appraisals obtained to make certain that owners of such property have enough insurance. c. It is the Insured s obligation to establish the value of his or her property. The agent or MMIC can suggest methods of obtaining values, but the responsibility rests upon the insured to prove value if a loss should occur. d. Updated values through periodic appraisals serve an important purpose equally to the following: 1. The insured has the peace of mind of being adequately covered, providing the value is kept up to date. 2. MMIC is receiving adequate premium for the exposure. 3. The agent is providing a good service of maintaining insurance to value and is less likely to have an embarrassing situation if a loss should occur. e. Contact MMIC for any other questions on appraisals. 10. Submit to MMIC means contact Mendota Mutual Insurance Company. Do not bind coverage until approval is obtained. MMIC 1-2016 IMP 3
