Terms and Conditions Named Perils — Catastrophe Truck Rental's Goods Insuring Agreement INSURANCE CONDITIONS: DEFINITIONS: Throughout this policy, "you" and "your" refer to the "insured" shown and "we", "us" and "our" refer to the Company providing this insurance. PROPERTY INSURED: We cover your personal property or the property of others for which you may be liable or have assumed liability prior to a loss, while in transit. Vehicles, trailers, boats and/or other vehicle subject to licensing and registration are not insurable under this policy. Fine Arts can be covered as part of your personal property with the following limitations: Limited to a $2,000 per item and a total of $10,000 per certificate. A list of Fine Arts items and their value must be submitted at time of purchase. Insurance purchased under the Rental Truck Named Perils coverage must be purchased for the replacement value of selected items or the entire shipment. Coverage requires that high value and Fine Arts items be specifically declared and valued. Failure to purchase the insurance under this term may cause the shipment to become underinsured and will place in effect the Co-Insurance Clause. Co-Insurance, or Underinsuring, determines the settlement compensation amount in case of a claim. Co-Insurance is a situation in which a shipment or an item is insured for less than its replacement value. Settlement will be proportional to the declared value versus the replacement value of the shipment or item. The settlement based on this insurance coverage will be the lesser of repair costs, replacement value or as insured by you. In the event that an item or its parts cannot be restored to its original condition through repair or replacement, subsequent loss of value is not covered beyond the repair or replacement cost of the item or its parts. The Insurance Carrier reserves the right to replace the damaged or missing items with items of like kind and quality. If any item of a "set" is lost or damaged, payment is only made for proportionate value of the item damaged, not the entire set. This insurance includes coverage while in transit for a maximum of 30 days starting from the first date of rental date ("Effective Date"). In case of a shipment being held in storage for any period before, during or after the transit period, a separate insurance certificate must be purchased.
