Property Removed
If the insured removes insured property from the premises because it is endangered by a covered peril, this coverage will provide coverage for damage (including damage while being moved) for 30 days. This coverage does not change the limit of insurance that applies to the property being removed.
Pair and Set
In the case of partial loss to a pair or set, the insurer will pay the amount of the full ACV of the set, minus the value of the remaining piece or pieces.
Other Insurance
Insurance is excess over any other collectible insurance, except insurance written specifically as excess insurance over this policy.
Severability of Insurance
Insurance under the policy applies separately to each insured. This condition does not increase the insurer's limit of liability per any one occurrence.
Loss Settlement
Losses to structures under Coverage A and B are subject to a coinsurance requirement of 80% of the value of the dwelling or structure. In the event of a partial loss, if the insured carries less than this amount, the insurer will pay only the proportion of the insurance carried to the 80% required.

Pays the replacement cost, up to $1,000 per occurrence, for property damage caused by an insured to the property of others. Payment is made regardless of negligence.

Increased Limit - Other Structures Endorsement
Provides for increased limits for other structures, if the automatic amount equal to 10% of the dwelling coverage is inadequate for other structures. The structures and applicable limits must be scheduled (specified), and an additional premium charge will be made for increased limits.
Inflation Guard Endorsement
Provides for automatic increases in limits of insurance for all Section I - Property coverages in order to avoid underinsurance due to inflation. The specified percentage increase is effective on a pro rata basis during the policy period.
Additional Residence - Rented to Others
Provides personal liability and medical payments coverage for the insured's liability arising out of the ownership of a residence regularly rented to others. Generally, only dwellings containing no more than 4 units are acceptable under this endorsement.
HO-5 (Comprehensive Form)
Provides the broadest coverage of any Homeowner policy. Both the dwelling and other structures and personal property and contents are insured against all direct physical damage (open perils). Losses to the dwelling and other structures are paid on a replacement cost basis, with losses to the personal property and contents paid on an actual cash value basis.
Deductible

Workers' Compensation Residence Employees Endorsement
A residence employee is covered under this endorsement if during the 90 calendar days immediately before the date of injury the employee has been employed by the insured for no less than 52 hours, earning no less than $100 in wages. A residence employee is defined as an employee of any insured who performs duties in connection with the maintenance or use of the residence premises, including household or domestic services, or who performs duties elsewhere of a similar nature not in connection with the business of any insured. There are also special endorsements that can be added for an additional premium to properly cover servants if they live in the home (for example, a full time nanny or caregiver).
Coverage D - Loss of Use (Indirect Loss)
Additional Living Expense If a property loss covered by Section I of the policy makes the residence premises unfit to live in, this coverage pays for any necessary increase in living expenses required to maintain the household's normal standard of living. The period for which additional living expenses will be paid is limited to the shortest time required to repair or replace the damage. Coverage periods will extend even beyond the policy expiration date, and payments do not affect the policy's liability limit. Fair Rental Value If, at the time of loss, a part of the residence premises is rented, this coverage part will pay the lost rental value, less any expenses that do not continue, such as utilities. Civil Authority If a civil authority prohibits the insured from the use of the residence premises as a result of direct damage to neighboring premises by a peril insured against, the insurer would cover the loss for no more than 2 weeks. Limits of Coverage The Coverage D limit under an HO-2, HO-3, and HO-5 is 30% of the Coverage A limit. Under an HO-4, it is 30% of the Coverage C limit. Under an HO-6, it is 50% of the Coverage C limit. Under an HO-8, it is 10% of the Coverage A limit.

Fire Department Service Charge
If the insured has liability to a fire department when it responds to protect the insured property from an insured peril, this coverage will pay up to $500 without a deductible. Note: The policy excludes fire department service charges if the property is located in the limits of the city or municipality furnishing the fire department response.
Debris Removal
If the insured incurs expenses removing debris from a loss, the policy will pay from the limits of insurance applicable to the covered property following a covered loss. When the covered loss exhausts the coverage limit, debris removal coverage will pay up to an additional 5% of Coverage A.
Earthquake Endorsement
In California, no residential insurance policy may be issued or delivered on dwellings up to 4 units unless the insured is offered coverage for loss or damage by earthquake. The coverage may be offered in the policy itself, either by a provision or endorsement, or in a separate policy that provides coverage for loss or damage by the peril of earthquake. A single earthquake is defined as one or more earthquake shocks that occur within a 72-hour period. The deductible for earthquake coverage added by endorsement is calculated as a percentage of Coverage A (Dwelling) or Coverage C (Personal Property), whichever is greater.
First Aid Expenses
Includes first aid to others, for bodily injury that is covered under the policy. This does not cover first aid to an insured.
Mobile Home Insurance
Insurance on mobile homes may be written by adding a Mobile Home Endorsement to a Homeowners Policy, or by writing a separate Mobile Homeowners Policy. When added as an endorsement to a HO-2 or HO-3, the endorsement modifies or removes coverage as necessary and reduces the policy limits for Coverage C and D. Not all mobile homes can be added by endorsement. The separate Mobile Homeowners Policy, under Coverage A (Mobile Home), is inclusive of the mobile home itself; property installed on a permanent basis, such as appliances, floor coverings, dressers and cabinets; attached structures; and utility tanks. Coverages B, C, and D are nearly identical to the same coverages under the Homeowners Policy, except that Coverage C (Personal Property) is generally written at 40% of Coverage A, instead of 50% under the Homeowners Policy.
Homeowner Section II - Liability
Section II is the same in all Homeowner Policies. It provides the same coverages as the stand-alone Comprehensive Personal Liability Policy. Protection is provided for legal claims against the insured or the insured's family members from occurrences in and around the premises, and for personal activities, and pets, on and away from premises. Coverage is intended to protect against non-business, non-automobile exposures. Note: Because they are third-party insurance, Section II Coverages are not subject to a deductible.
HO-3 (Special Form)
The dwelling and other structures are insured against all direct physical damage (open perils), with losses paid on a replacement cost basis. The contents and personal property are insured against the broad form perils with losses paid on an actual cash value basis. Included are losses to a fence, driveway or walk caused by a vehicle owned or operated by the insured.
HO-2 (Broad Form)
The dwelling and other structures are insured against the broad form perils with losses paid on a replacement cost basis. The contents and personal property are insured against the broad form perils, with losses paid on an actual cash value basis. The HO-2 does not cover loss to a fence, driveway, or walk caused by a vehicle owned or operated by the insured.
Ordinance or Law
The insured may use up to 10% of the Coverage A limit of insurance for increased costs the insured incurs due to the enforcement of any ordinance or law which requires or regulates: Construction, demolition, remodeling, renovation, or repair of that part of a covered building damaged by an insured peril The demolition or reconstruction of the undamaged part of a covered building, when that building must be totally demolished because of damage by an insured peril to another part of that covered building The remodeling, removal, or replacement of the portion of the undamaged part of a covered building to complete the remodeling, repair, or replacement to that part of the covered building damaged by an insured peril This coverage is additional insurance.
Concealment or Fraud
The insurer will not provide coverage to an insured who, whether before or after a loss, has intentionally concealed or misrepresented any material fact or circumstance, engaged in fraudulent conduct, or made false statements relating to insurance.
Collapse
The policy covers a direct loss to covered property involving the collapse of a building, or to any part of the building, caused by the following specified perils: Hidden decay Hidden insect and vermin damages Weight of contents, animals, people or equipment The weight of rain collected on a roof, or The use of defective material or methods of construction Note: The policy does not cover collapse of awnings, fences, or patios caused by these perils. This coverage does not increase the limit of insurance that applies to the damaged property.
Glass or Safety Glazing Material
The policy covers the breakage of glass or safety glazing material that is part of a covered building, storm door, or storm window. The policy does not cover loss when the dwelling has been vacant for more than 60 consecutive days immediately before the loss, unless the loss results directly from earth movement. This does not increase the limit of insurance that applies to the damaged property.
Credit Cards, Electronic Fund Transfer Card, Forgery, and Counterfeit Money
The policy provides $500 of coverage under this additional coverage for: The legal obligation of an insured because of theft or unauthorized use of credit cards Loss resulting from theft or unauthorized use of an insured's fund transfer card Loss to an insured caused by forgery or alteration of a check or negotiable instrument Loss to an insured caused by good-faith acceptance of counterfeit United States or Canadian currency Note: In the event of a credit card loss, the insured must notify the bank that issued the card and give prompt notice to the insurer. This coverage is additional insurance, and no deductible applies to this coverage.
Payment of Claim - Coverage F
This condition states that payment by the insurer under Coverage F is not an admission of liability.
Coverage B - Other Structures
This coverage provides an additional amount of insurance equal to 10% of the Coverage A. It applies to covered losses to related structures on the premises when they are separated by a clear space from the dwelling. Structures connected to the dwelling by only a fence or utility line are considered separate. Structures cannot be used for mercantile or manufacturing use, such as renting them to a neighbor for a woodworking business. This insurance limit may be increased by endorsement
Watercraft Liability
This endorsement amends the liability exclusions of the Homeowners forms so that bodily injury or property damage arising out of the ownership, maintenance, use, loading, or unloading of the watercraft described on the endorsement is covered. Watercraft rented to others and jet boats are not covered under the watercraft liability endorsement, nor is any watercraft while involved in any prearranged or organized race, speed contest or other similar competition. (This exclusion does not apply to sailing vessels, with or without auxiliary power.)
Personal Property Replacement Cost Endorsement
This endorsement changes the Coverage C valuation method from actual cash value (ACV) to replacement cost. The endorsement does not pay replacement cost coverage for antiques, fine arts, paintings, memorabilia, souvenirs, articles whose ages and histories contribute to their value.
California Residential Property Insurance Disclosure Form
This form is required by California Law and describes the principle insurance coverage forms for residential dwellings. It indicates the method of valuation the insured has purchased, and contains only a general description of coverages. It is not part of an insured's residential property insurance policy. The form states that an insured should read his/her policy very carefully and if there is any part that is not understood, he/she should contact his/her insurance agent or company, or call the California Department of Insurance consumer information.
HO-8 (Modified Form)
This form is used when insuring older homes where replacement value and market value are disproportionate, or where a moral hazard would exist if insurance were written in amounts equal to 80% of replacement cost. The insurance limit is written for the market value of the dwelling, and losses to the contents are paid on an actual cash value basis.
Coverage F - Medical Payments to Others
Under this coverage, the policy will pay necessary medical expenses within 3 years from the date of an accident causing bodily injury. Medical expenses include reasonable charges for medical, surgical, x-ray, dental, ambulance, hospital, professional nursing, prosthetic devices, and funeral services. Coverage does not apply to an insured or regular residents of the insured's household (except residence employees), but provides coverage to a person on the insured location with the permission of an insured, or a person off the insured location if the bodily injury: Arises out of a condition on the insured location or the immediate surroundings Is caused by the activities of an insured Is caused by a residence employee in the course of employment of the insured Is caused by an animal owned by or in the care of an insured

Newly acquired property of a class already insured is automatically covered. The insurer must be notified within 30 days (90 days for fine arts) of the acquisition of the property. Coverage for the described property is worldwide. The Section I deductible does not apply to this endorsement. The scheduled personal property endorsement covers breakage of glassware caused by an earthquake.
Nuclear Hazard

Forms don't insure against losses caused by any of the following: The failure of power or other utility service if the failure takes place off the described premises.

If a claim is made or a suit is brought against an insured for damages because of bodily injury or property damage caused by an occurrence to which this coverage applies, the policy will pay up to the limit of liability for the damages, including prejudgment interest awarded against an insured. The policy will also provide a defense, at the insurer's expense, even if the suit is groundless, false, or fraudulent. The insurer may investigate and settle any claim or suit that it decides is appropriate.

Personal Autos The policy excludes payment for bodily injury or property damage arising from the operation, maintenance, or use of a motorized vehicle, registered or required to be registered for use on public roads or property.

The California Earthquake Authority (CEA)
The California Earthquake Authority (CEA) was created to sell policies of basic residential earthquake insurance to owners and residents of homes, condos, mobile homes, and apartment residences up to 4 units. The CEA is a publicly managed non-profit, and has no authority to sell any other type of insurance. Policies are marketed and serviced by participating insurers. CEA policies must be attached to a companion policy (homeowners or dwelling). When the companion policy terminates, the CEA policy terminates with it.
Guaranteed/Extended Replacement Cost Endorsement
The Guaranteed Replacement Cost Endorsement requires the insurer to replace damaged structures without regard to dollar limits or percentage of policy limits. It's also supposed to cover costs related to building code upgrades. This endorsement is uncommon in California and will not be issued by most insurers, because of the open-ended nature of the risk when rebuilding a home to revised code standards. The Extended Replacement Cost Endorsement increases coverage of the structure by a fixed amount to match increased construction or remodeling costs (usually a percentage of the Coverage A amount). This increased coverage is not always applicable to code upgrades, which may be subject to a smaller coverage increase. Producers are required to give dwelling and homeowner insureds a copy of the California Residential Property Insurance Disclosure, which outlines the parameters of these endorsements. Producers also must provide, along with the Disclosure, the California Residential Property Insurance Bill of Rights, which informs the client as to his/her rights regarding property valuation, claims, policy limits, cancellation/non-renewal, etc. If a policy does not have any replacement cost endorsements, it must clearly state: "This policy does not include building code upgrade coverage."
Personal Injury
The endorsement defines and adds personal injury to the policy. Personal injury includes: False arrest, detention, or imprisonment Malicious prosecution Wrongful eviction or wrongful entry by an owner, landlord, or lessor Oral or written statements that violates a person's right of privacy, slanders or libels a person, or disparages a person's goods, products, or services Personal injury does not apply to: Injury resulting from an offense related to the injured person's employment Injury caused by a conscious violation of criminal law Liability arising out of disputes between insureds Civic or public activities for which the insured is paid Injury related to a business engaged in by the insured
Home Day Care
The endorsement extends Section II coverages to the insured's home day care business. The endorsement typically imposes a policy year aggregate limit for liability and medical payments combined. The limit corresponds to the Coverage E limit shown in the Declarations, with a further per person per accident sublimit for day care related medical payments equal to Coverage F. The endorsement does not cover injury to any employee, other than a residence employee, for accidents arising out of the day care operation.
Applying to Section I & Section II Home Business
The endorsement provides for both business property and liability coverages for a variety of home businesses. The business must be owned by the named insured, or by a partnership, joint venture, or organization comprised solely of the named insured and resident relatives. Coverage is included for premises operations, advertising injury, and personal injury. There is no coverage for professional services.
Landlord's Furnishings
The policy will pay up to $2,500 in any one loss for the insured's appliances, carpeting, and other household furnishings, in each apartment on the residence premises regularly rented to others by the insured, for loss caused by a covered peril other than theft. This coverage does not increase the limit of insurance applying to the damaged property.
Grave Markers
The policy will pay up to $5,000 for grave markers, on or away from the residence premises, for loss caused by a peril insured under Coverage C. Does not increase the limits of insurance that apply to the damaged, covered property.
