• The term “Authorized Service Center” means the service center providing repair and replacement services on our behalf.
• The term “Wireless Service Provider” means Verizon Wireless, who is the First Named Insured, providing the Covered Property.

COVERAGE
In exchange for premium paid when due, we agree to provide the coverage as stated in this policy on a month to month basis, provided that any covered damage or loss to the Covered Property is sustained while your coverage is in effect.

Who Is Covered

• First Named Insured
  The First Named Insured is Verizon Wireless for its interest in Covered Property.

• Additional Insureds
  The First Named Insured has the right to request Additional Insured status for a customer for his or her interest in the Covered Property which he, she or it owns (references herein to “Insured” refer collectively to “First Named Insured” and “Additional Insured”). Requests for coverage for Additional Insureds are subject to our approval.
  Line Based Coverage provides coverage for Covered Property in use on a specific enrolled mobile number active on the account for wireless communication service with the Wireless Service Provider.
  For devices with multiple-SIM capability, two (2) separate enrolled mobile numbers that are active on the account for wireless communication service with the Wireless Service Provider may be in use on the same Covered Property.

• Account Based Coverage provides coverage for Covered Property in use on the mobile numbers that: (1) are active on the Additional Insured’s enrolled account for wireless communication service with the Wireless Service Provider; and (2) have been registered for coverage by the Additional Insured as described in Section A.2 below.
  When an enrolled mobile number is removed from the Additional Insured’s account with the Wireless Service Provider, coverage ceases immediately for any Covered Property associated with or in use on that mobile number, unless the Covered Property has multiple-SIM capability and is also in use on a separate enrolled mobile number.

Covered Property
Covered Property means only the mobile wireless communications equipment as follows:

• If you have subscribed to Line Based Coverage: Covered Property means the wireless device owned by you for which: 1) the unique identification number (International Mobile Equipment Identity (IMEI)), Electronic Serial Number (ESN), or Mobile Equipment ID (MEID) of such wireless device is reflected in the records of the Wireless Service Provider at the time your coverage initially became effective; and 2) for which outgoing airtime usage has been logged with the Wireless Service Provider on the account after coverage became effective; unless you have logged outgoing airtime on a different wireless phone immediately prior to the time of loss, in which case such wireless device becomes the Covered Property so long as: i) such wireless device is owned by you and you provide us proof of ownership and ii) airtime usage was logged on such device on the account with the Wireless Service Provider immediately prior to the time of loss.

• If you have subscribed to Account Based Coverage: When you enroll in Account Based Coverage (for multiple devices), unless you enroll in additional coverage, you receive three (3) enrolled mobile numbers (i.e., three units of coverage), each of which can be registered to one (1) mobile telephone number in use on your account with the Wireless Service Provider. To register one (1) of your mobile numbers to an available registered line, you must register it with Asurion.
  When you register a mobile number on an enrolled account under an available registered line, the device in use on the registered mobile telephone becomes Covered Property so long as the device: a) is owned by you; b) the device’s unique identification number (International Mobile Equipment Identity (IMEI)), Electronic Serial Number (ESN), or Mobile Equipment ID (MEID) is reflected in the records of the Wireless Service Provider; and c) outgoing airtime usage has been logged by the device with the Wireless Service Provider on your account after your account was enrolled in Account Based Coverage. If you change the device in use on
  a registered line, the new device becomes the Covered Property in place of the previous device so long as the requirements of this paragraph are met. Devices that have been registered on a registered line, will remain on that registration line for 12 months from the date of loss for Covered Property associated with that mobile number.

• Unless you are eligible for and purchase additional registered lines, you may only register three (3) enrolled mobile numbers for coverage at the same time. If you fill all of your available registered lines, the Agent will contact you to discuss your options. Adding or removing mobile numbers to and from your account may change your total number of available registered lines. Purchasing an additional registered line will allow you to register one (1) additional mobile number for coverage if the requirements of this paragraph are met. Please review the Account Based Coverage program brochure or contact Asurion or the Wireless Service Provider regarding your coverage or available line registration.

The following applies to both Line Based coverage and Account Based coverage:
Accessories used with the Covered Property at the time of loss, if lost or stolen: one (1) standard battery (attached to wireless device at time of loss); and one (1) standard home charger. In addition to the foregoing, Accessories used with connected wearable devices that are Covered Property at time of loss, if lost or stolen, includes: one (1) standard wrist band (attached to device at time of loss if lost or stolen) of like kind and quality to the band received at time of purchase (not to include bands purchased separate from the watch).

The applicable Aggregate Limit is determined based on the total number of enrolled mobile numbers on the Additional Insured’s account with the Wireless Service Provider at the time coverage for the Additional Insured begins. If during the coverage period, the Additional Insured adds or removes enrolled mobile numbers from their account with the Wireless Service Provider, the Aggregate Limit will automatically adjust after completion of each covered claim based on the total number of enrolled mobile numbers on their account immediately after completion of the claim. If the number of losses in the prior 12 month time period equals or exceeds the Aggregate Limit applicable after completion of the claim, coverage will cease immediately.
   When this limit is exhausted, we will notify the Additional Insured that coverage has ceased and no future premiums are due.

DEDUCTIBLE

The Deductible is either $19, $29, $49, $99, $149, or $229, depending on whether the Covered Property is found in Schedule A1, B1, C1, D1, E1, F1, G1, H1, I1, J1, K1, L1 or QQ1 and is non-refundable and is payable at the time a loss is approved by the Agent. This Deductible will apply to each filed and approved covered claim, and does not reduce the Limit of Insurance. Only an Insured may pay the Deductible.

INSURED’S DUTIES IN EVENT OF LOSS TO INSURED’S COVERED PROPERTY
In the event of loss or damage to Covered Property, the Insured presenting the claim must cooperate with us and see that the following are done:

Return of Damaged and/or Malfunctioning Covered Property

If the replacement equipment is sent to you, you will be provided a prepaid shipping label and envelope in which to return the damaged property.
Disposal of the damaged Covered Property other than by returning it to the Authorized Service Center, or other location designated by us, requires the prior consent of us or our Agent.
If the damaged Covered Property is not returned as directed within 15 days of the receipt of the replacement equipment, a Non-Return Fee as applicable to the model of Covered Property, not to exceed three hundred dollars ($300) may be charged to the Additional Insured.

ADDITIONAL CONDITIONS

Arbitration Agreement

• Please read this Arbitration Agreement carefully. It affects your rights. Most of your concerns about the policy can be addressed simply by contacting us at 1.888.881.2622. In the unlikely event we cannot resolve any disputes, including any claims under
  the policy, that you or we may have, YOU AND WE AGREE TO RESOLVE THOSE DISPUTES THROUGH EITHER BINDING ARBITRATION OR SMALL CLAIMS COURT INSTEAD OF THROUGH COURTS OF GENERAL JURISDICTION. YOU AND WE AGREE THAT ANY ARBITRATION WILL TAKE PLACE ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS ONLY. YOU AND WE AGREE TO WAIVE THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY AND TO PARTICIPATE IN CLASS ARBITRATIONS AND CLASS ACTIONS. Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury. It has more limited discovery than in court and is subject to limited review by courts. Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award.

• For the purpose of this Arbitration Agreement, references to “we,” “us” and “our” includes Liberty Insurance Underwriters Inc., our Agent, the First Named Insured and their respective parents, subsidiaries, affiliates, agents, employees, successors and assigns. The policy evidences a transaction in interstate commerce, and thus the Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this Arbitration Agreement. This Arbitration Agreement shall survive the termination of the policy.
  This Arbitration Agreement is intended to be interpreted broadly, and it includes any dispute: (1) arising out of or relating in any way to the policy or to the relationship between You and Us, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation or otherwise; (2) that arose either before this Arbitration Agreement or policy was entered into by you and us or that arises after this Arbitration Agreement or policy is terminated; and (3) that currently is the subject of a purported class action litigation in which you are not a member of a certified class. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Arbitration Agreement does not preclude you from bringing an individual action in small claims court or from informing any federal, state or local agencies or entities of your dispute. Such agencies or entities may be able to seek relief on your behalf.

• If you or we intend to seek arbitration you and we must first send to the other a written Notice of Claim (“Notice”) by certified mail. Your Notice to us should be addressed to: Legal Department, P.O. Box 110656, Nashville, TN 37222. The Notice must describe the dispute and state the specific relief sought. If you and we do not resolve the dispute within 30 days of receipt of the Notice, you or we may initiate an arbitration proceeding with the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”). You can obtain the forms necessary to initiate an arbitration proceeding by visiting www.adr.org or by calling 1-800-778-7879. After we receive notice that you have commenced arbitration, we will reimburse you for payment of any filing fee to the AAA. If you are unable to pay a required filing fee, we will pay it if you send a written request by certified mail to: Legal Department, P.O. Box 110656, Nashville, TN 37222. The arbitration shall be administered by the AAA in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (the “Arbitration Rules”) in effect at the time the arbitration is initiated and as modified by this Arbitration Agreement. You can obtain a copy of the Arbitration Rules by visiting www.adr.org or by calling 1-800-778-7879.

• The arbitrator appointed by the AAA to decide the dispute is bound by the terms of this Arbitration Agreement. All issues are for the arbitrator to decide, including the scope of this Arbitration Agreement, with the exception that issues relating to the enforceability of this Arbitration Agreement may be decided by a court.

• Unless you and we agree otherwise, any arbitration hearings will take place in the county or parish of your billing address. If your dispute is for $10,000 or less, you may choose to conduct the arbitration hearings either by submitting documents to the arbitrator or by appearing before the arbitrator in person or by telephone. If your dispute is for more than $10,000, the right to arbitration hearings will be determined by the Arbitration Rules. We will pay all filing, administration and arbitrator fees for any arbitration initiated pursuant to this Arbitration Agreement, unless your dispute is found by the arbitrator to have been frivolous or brought for an improper purpose under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b). In that case, the payment of such fees shall be governed by the Arbitration Rules.

• At the conclusion of the arbitration hearings, the arbitrator shall issue a written decision which includes an explanation of the facts and law upon which the decision is based. If the arbitrator finds in your favor and issues a damages award that is greater than the value of the last settlement offer made by us or if we made no settlement offer and the arbitrator awards you any damages, we will: (1) pay you the amount of the damages award or $7,500, whichever is greater; and (2) pay your attorney, if any, twice the amount of the attorney’s fees and the actual amount of any expenses reasonably incurred when pursuing your dispute in arbitration. You and we agree not to disclose any settlement offers to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator has issued the written decision. The arbitrator may resolve any disputes regarding attorney’s fees and expenses either during the arbitration hearings or, upon request, within 14 days of the arbitrator’s written decision. While the right to the attorney’s fees and expenses discussed above is in addition to any right you may have under applicable law, neither you nor your attorney may recover duplicate awards of attorney’s fees and expenses. Although we may have the right under applicable law to recover attorney’s fees and expenses from you if we prevail in the arbitration, we hereby waive the right to do so.

• To the extent either declaratory or injunctive relief is sought in the arbitration, such relief can be awarded only to the extent necessary to provide the relief warranted by a party’s individual claim. YOU AND WE AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN AN INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Unless you and we agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate the dispute of another person with your or our dispute and may not preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. If this specific provision of this Arbitration Agreement is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this Arbitration Agreement shall be null and void.

Claim Authorization and Loss Payment

We or Asurion Insurance Services, Inc. has the right to settle the loss with the Insured or his or her designee. No claims will be accepted unless authorized by Asurion Insurance Services, Inc.
All repairs and replacements must be made by the Authorized Service Center, unless we or our Agent gives the Insured other specific directions. In no event will Insureds be entitled to reimbursement for any out-of-pocket expenses.

    The First Named Insured agrees to pay or act as delivery agent for notice of cancellation to all Additional Insureds.

The policy’s terms can be amended or waived only by endorsement issued by us and made a part of the policy. If notice of such changes is mailed, proof of mailing will be sufficient proof of notice.

• Concealment, Misrepresentation or Fraud

  • The policy;
  • The Covered Property;
  • The Insured’s interest in the Covered Property; or
  • A claim under the policy; but only with respect to their coverage.

  We agree that any terms of the policy not in conformity with the statutes of the state in which the policy is issued are amended to conform to those applicable state statutes.

These may include: property location or recovery services; data management or recovery services; equipment service and maintenance; reduced cost upgrade or purchase benefits or other services provided through your Wireless Service Provider or other authorized service facilities.

  • Within fifteen days after the end of each month, the First Named Insured:

  • Will report to the Agent the total number of Covered Property units that were covered under the policy as of the last day of that month; and

  • Will remit the monthly premium to us through the Agent based on that report. For Line Based Coverage, the monthly premium will be calculated by multiplying the Monthly Premium Rate per unit of Covered Property by the total number of such units.
    For Account Based Coverage, the monthly premium will be calculated by summing the applicable Monthly Premium Rates for accounts enrolled in Account Based Coverage.

  • The First Named Insured may request that Additional Insureds be billed for the Monthly Premium Rate applicable to their Covered Property.
    If the First Named Insured provides monthly billing and collection services for the Agent, all funds collected by the First Named Insured are our property.
    We may examine and audit the First Named Insured’s books and records relating to such premium payments and reporting at any time during the policy period and up to three years afterward.

• Transfer of Rights and Duties Under The Policy (Assignment)
  No rights and duties under the policy may be transferred without our written consent.

• Transfer of Rights of Recovery Against Others To Us (Subrogation)
  If after we have made good the covered loss or damage, any Insured has rights to recover damages from another, and those rights are transferred to us to the extent of our cost of repair or replacement. The Insured must do everything necessary to secure our rights and must do nothing after loss or damage to impair them.
