45. Insurance Community University Polling Question #3 45

46. Insurance Community University EPLI Exclusions Wage and Hour / FLSA exclusion – Current trend in EPLI litigation due to exempt v. non-exempt employee status – Some forms include very small amount of coverage for defense and damages – Significant risk exposure for today’s employers – A few forms still have sub-limit available 46

47. Insurance Community University Wage and Hour Exclusion Sample Language For any actual or alleged violation of the responsibilities, obligations or duties imposed by any federal, state, or local statutory law or common law anywhere in the world (including but not limited to the Fair Labor Standards Act) or amendments to or regulations promulgated under any such law that governs wage, hour and payroll policies and practices, except the Equal Pay Act (“Wage and Hour Laws”), including but not limited to: 47

Insurance Community University Wage and Hour Exclusion Sample Language (i) the calculation, timing or manner of payment of minimum wages, prevailing wage rates, overtime pay or other compensation alleged to be due and owing; (ii) the classification of any organization or person for wage and hour purposes; 48

49. Insurance Community University EPLI Exclusions Immigration exclusion – Becoming a more common action today – Look for an exception or a sub-limit for defense, damages or both Bodily injury – Look for exception for mental anguish, emotional distress, humiliation, etc. 49

53. Insurance Community University On All Policies Every policy contains a paragraph imposing responsibility on defined persons that must know and report the loss Some forms are extremely vague (an insured) and this needs to be reviewed and modified to specific persons If modification is not possible – you MUST disclose the obligations to the insured 53

54. Insurance Community University Polling Question #4 54

55. Insurance Community University Claims Made and Reported Forms Some forms also allow reporting during the extended reporting period Requires that the claim is first made to the insured during the policy AND the insurance company is notified during the SAME policy period This type of coverage form is prevalent today. 55

56. Insurance Community University Sample Language Except to such extent as may otherwise be provided herein, the coverage of this policy is limited to liability for only those claims that are first made against you and reported in writing to us during the policy period. 56

57. Insurance Community University Possible Coverage Gap Claim is reported to insured in one policy period Claim is reported to the insurance company in the next policy period No coverage – even if it is a renewal The basic extended reporting period does not always avoid this 57

58. Insurance Community University Basic Extended Reporting Period Example If we or the named insured shall cancel or elect not to renew this policy, you shall have the right following the effective date of such cancellation or nonrenewal to a period of sixty (60) days (herein referred to as the “Automatic Extended Reporting Period”) in which to give written notice to us of claims first made against you during the Automatic Extended Reporting Period for any wrongful act occurring prior to the end of the policy period and otherwise covered by this policy. 58

59. Insurance Community University Solutions Place coverage with a company using a claims made form rather than a claims made and reported form Modify coverage with incumbent insurance company If all else fails, notify the insured in writing – producer needs to meet with client and obtain acknowledgment in writing from client - annually 59

60. Insurance Community University Claim Always check the definition of claim – Will vary by policy – When is a claim a claim? When it is received by the insured? When it is filed against the insured? – Differing definitions when moving the account to another company could leave your client with no coverage 60

61. Insurance Community University Reporting Provisions Who has to know and who has to tell? – Always make sure that you narrow the definition of this responsible party to (example) executive officer of the Named Insured (or Parent Company) or risk manager – Leaving it as the ‘insured’ must notify means that anyone can find out about a claim and failure to report could remove coverage 61

62. Insurance Community University Pending & Prior Litigation Common exclusion Can create a gap in coverage if not handled properly Extremely important in claims made and reported forms 62

63. Insurance Community University P & P Exclusion Example “We shall not cover claims: N. first made against you prior to, or pending, as of the first inception date, or relating to the essential facts, circumstances or situation underlying such claim.” 63

64. Insurance Community University P & P Exclusion With Proper Exception (b) based upon, arising from or in consequence of any demand, suit, or other proceeding pending against, or order, decree or judgment entered for or against any Insured, on or prior to the applicable Pending or Prior Date set forth in Item 7 of the Declarations for this coverage section, or the same or substantially the same fact, circumstance or situation underlying or alleged therein; 64
