Terrorism Risk Insurance Act of 2002
The Terrorism Risk Insurance Act of 2002 created a three-year program
under which the Federal Government will share in the payment of covered losses
caused by certain events of international terrorism. The Act requires that we
notify you of certain components of the Act, and the effect, if any, the Act will
have on the premium charged for this bond.
Under this program, the Federal Government will cover 90% of the
amount of covered losses caused by certified acts of terrorism, as defined by the
Act. The coverage is available only when aggregate losses resulting from a
certified act of terrorism exceed $5,000,000.00. Insurance carriers must also meet
a variable deductible established by the Act. The Act also establishes a cap of
$1,000,000,000.00 for which the Federal Government or an insurer can be
responsible.
Participation in the program is mandatory for specified lines of property
and casualty insurance, including surety insurance. The Act does not, however,
create coverage in excess of the amount of the bond, nor does it provide coverage
for any losses that are otherwise excluded by the terms of the bond, or by
operation of law.
No additional premium has been charged for the terrorism coverage
required by the Act.
