PART I – COVERAGE & DEFINITION TYPE RULES

RULE 100. INTRODUCTION

A. GENERAL INFORMATION

This Manual contains the forms, endorsements, and rules governing the writing of an Owners, Landlords, and Tenants (OLT) policy. The forms and rules ref-erences in these General Rules may not be availa-ble in every state. Refer to State Exception pages to verify state specific rules and forms. 1. Who and What Is Insured

a. Who Is An Insured?

1) The Named Insured listed in the Decla-rations.

2) If the Named Insured is an individual, the following individuals if living in the same household as the Named Insured:

a) The spouse;

b) Individuals who are related by blood, marriage, or adoption; and

c) A ward, foster child, or foreign ex-change student.

3) Any unmarried and financially depend-ent child under age 25 who is away at school.

b. What Is Insured?

The Owners, Landlords, and Tenants policy provides coverage for bodily injury and property damage arising out of the one- to four- family dwelling described in the Decla-rations.

This policy does not provide coverage for:

1) Personal acts that occur away from the insured premises; or

2) Damage to property of others.

The following coverages may not be en-dorsed on the OLT policy:

1) Incidental Business Activities; and

2) Incidental Agricultural Activities.

* The OLT policy must be written in conjunc-tion with a property policy issued by a Grin-nell Mutual Member (mutual).

* 2. Owners, Landlords, and Tenants Policy

An Owners, Landlords, and Tenants liability policy GMRC 5300 may be issued as described below:

a. Affiliated Direct (AFD) Liability policies are underwritten and issued on behalf of Grin-nell Mutual Reinsurance Company (Grinnell Mutual) from the offices of Grinnell Mutual Members (mutuals) in IA, IL, IN, MN, MO, ND, NE, OH and SD who are not permitted, or have elected not, to write liability cover-age on form GMRC 5300. Grinnell Mutual’s filed rates apply to these policies.

AFD Liability policies must be written in con-junction with the mutual’s property policy. The Declaration pages issued by AFD mu-tuals identify the mutual as the property in-surer and Grinnell Mutual as the liability in-surer.

b. Reinsured Liability (RL) coverage is under-written and issued by a mutual that writes li-ability coverage and sets their own rates. The liability coverage is 100% reinsured by Grinnell Mutual. Reinsured Liability cover-age is issued from the offices of the mutual in MN, MO, MT, ND, NE, SD, and WI.

Reinsured Liability coverage must be written in conjunction with the mutual’s property coverage. The policy applications and Dec-laration pages issued by RL mutuals identify the mutual as the insurer.

Applications for Affiliated Direct Liability and Reinsured Liability should be submitted to the mutual.

Coverage is provided for medical expenses incurred by persons if bodily injury occurs in connection with the insured’s per-sonal activities; the insured premises; and to injuries arising out of animals owned by, or in the care of, an insured. Coverage applies to expenses incurred within 3 years of the date of loss. This coverage does not apply to any individual who qualifies as an insured, as defined in the Owners, Landlords, and Tenants policy.

C. ADDITIONAL COVERAGES 1. Claim and Legal Expenses

In addition to the limit of liability, this coverage pays all costs incurred to defend, including in-terest on damages awarded, prejudgment inter-est, and premiums on appeal bonds, loss of earnings, and other reasonable expenses in-curred to defend a covered claim. Payment of these expenses ceases when the limit of liability for this coverage has been paid.

erty damage sustained by one or more persons in any one occurrence shall be the lesser of:

GMRC OLT * denotes change 07/18 OLT-GR-4 Multistate General Rules

RULE 204. GMRC 2269 – CERTIFIED ACTS OF TERRORISM – LIABILITY

This endorsement is required to comply with the Terror-ism Risk Insurance Reauthorization Act of 2007 (The Act). It notifies the policyholder of the Federal Govern-ment’s role if an act of terrorism occurs and is deemed to be a Certified Act of Terrorism, as defined by The Act.

This is a mandatory non-premium bearing endorsement when attached to OLT Affiliated Direct Liability and OLT Reinsured Liability policies. When an OLT Reinsured Li-ability policy is issued by a Reinsured Liability mutual, it is conditional/mandatory as described below:

A. Mandatory – If mutual does not charge for GMRC 2269.

B. Optional – If mutual charges. The insured must be given the opportunity to reject or accept this en-dorsement annually, at each renewal or anniversary.

If rejected, GMRC 2270 RL, described below, must be attached. Refer to Rules 213, 214, 215, and 216 for information regarding annual notices and rejec-tion forms.

RULE 205. GMRC 2270 RL – LIABILITY EXCLUSION FOR CERTIFIED ACTS OF TERRORISM (Available in MN, MT, MO, ND, NE, SD, and WI)

This endorsement is required to comply with the Terror-ism Risk Insurance Reauthorization Act of 2007 (The Act). It must be attached when the policy is issued by a Reinsured Liability mutual that is charging for GMRC 2269, and the insured rejects GMRC 2269, as described in Rule 207.

If the mutual writes the liability coverage and charges premium for GMRC 2269, this exclusion must be at-tached to the policy if GMRC 2269 is rejected by the in-sured.

If coverage is rejected, the policyholder must be given the opportunity to continue to reject GMRC 2269, or to accept this coverage, annually (at renewal or anniver-sary). Refer to Rules 213, 214, 215, and 216 for infor-mation regarding annual notices and rejection forms.

RULE 206. GMRC 2273 – ANNUAL AGGREGATE ENDORSEMENT (Not available in IL)

This endorsement adds an annual aggregate limit to the policy, which is two times the per occurrence limit stated in the Declarations for Liability to Public – Coverage A, if the policy is written with combined single limits.
