The Act further requires that all in- force exclusions for acts of terrorism, as defined in the Act, already contained in a policylbond or included as an endorsement in a policylbond, become nullified as of November 26,2002, Coverage for act of terrorism is included in your current policylbond and/or in any policylbond quoted for you, You should know that, effective November 26, 2002, under your existing coverage, any losses caused by certified acts of terrorism would be partially reimbursed by the United States under a formula established by federal law. Under this formula, the United States pays 90% of covered terrorism losses exceeding the statutorily established deductible paid by the insurance company providing the coverage, The actual coverage provided by your po licylbond for acts 0 f terrorism, as is true for all coverages, is limited by the terms, conditions, exclusions, limits, other provisions of your policy/bond, any endorsement to the policylbond and generally applicable rules of law, During your current policylbond period, the portion or your premium that is attributed to coverage for acts of terrorism is $0,00, If it becomes necessary to include a premium for terrorism coverage in a future renewal of your policy/bond, you will receive notification of that premium through a separate line in your policy/bond, Should you have any question regarding this notice, please contact your insurance agent.

Street Address 13901 NW 118 Ave. City, State, Zip Miami, FL 33178 A member of Westfield Groups" Policyholder and/or Bondholder Disclosure: NOTICE OF TERRORISM INSURANCE COVERAGE On November 26, 2002, President Bush signed into law the Terrorism Risk Insurance Act of 2002 (the "Act"). The Act became effective immediately and establishes a temporary Federal program that provides for a system of shared public and private compensation for an "insured loss" resulting from certified acts of foreign "terrorism", as defined under the Act. The Act further requires that all in-force exclusions for acts of terrorism, as defined in the Act, already contained in a policylbond or included as an endorsement in a policylbond, become nullified as of November 26,2002. Coverage for act of terrorism is included in your current policylbond and/or in any policylbond quoted for you. You should know that, effective November 26, 2002, under your existing coverage, any losses caused by certified acts ofterrorism would be partially reimbursed by the United States under a formula established by federal law. Under this formula, the United States pays 90% of covered terrorism losses exceeding the statutorily established deductible paid by the insurance company providing the coverage. The actual coverage provided by your policylbond for acts of terrorism, as is true for all coverages, is limited by the terms, conditions, exclusions, limits, other provisions of your policylbond, any endorsement to the policylbond and generally applicable rules of law. During your current policylbond period, the portion or your premium that is attributed to coverage for acts of terrorism is $0.00. Ifit becomes necessary to include a premium for terrorism coverage in a future renewal of your policylbond, you will receive notification of that premium through a separate line in your policylbond. Should you have any question regarding this notice, please contact your insurance agent. Agency Name City, State, Zip Gui2Dard Company LOD2wood, FL 32750 Agency Code 9186 g'''. ~.,."
