CHA <br />THIS ENDORSEMENT CHANGES THE POLICY. PLEASE READ IT CAREFULLY. <br />CALIFORNIA CHANGES <br />This endorsement modifies insurance provided under the following: <br />BUSINESSOWNERS SPECIAL PROPERTY COVERAGE FORM <br />BUSINESSOWNERS LIABILITY COVERAGE FORM <br />BUSINESSOWNERS COMMON POLICY CONDITIONS <br />A. The Businessowners Special Property Coverage Form is amended as follows: <br />SB146916E <br />(Ed. 07-20) <br />1. With respect to an 'open policy", the following is added to any provision which uses the term actual cash value: <br />a. In the event of a partial loss to a building or structure, actual cash value is calculated as b.(1) or b.(2), <br />whichever is less: <br />(1) The amount it would cost to repair, rebuild or replace the property less a fair and reasonable deduction <br />for physical depreciation of the components of the building or structure that are normally subject to repair <br />or replacement during its useful life. Physical depreciation is based upon the condition of the property at <br />the time of loss; <br />(2) The Limit of Insurance applicable to the property. <br />b. In the event of a partial or total loss to Covered Property other than a building or structure, actual cash value <br />is calculated as c.(1) or c.(2), whichever is less: <br />(1) The amount it would cost to repair or replace the property less a fair and reasonable deduction for <br />physical depreciation based upon the condition of the property at the time of loss; <br />(2) The Limit of Insurance applicable to the property. <br />c. An 'open policy" is a policy under which the value of Covered Property is not fixed at policy inception, but is <br />determined at the time of loss in accordance with policy provisions on valuation. <br />2. Paragraph E.2. Appraisal Property Loss Conditions is replaced by the following: <br />2. Appraisal <br />If we and you disagree on the value of the property or the actual cash value or the amount of loss, either may <br />make written request for an appraisal of the loss. In this event, each party will select a competent and <br />impartial appraiser. However, in the event of a government -declared disaster, as defined in the Government <br />Code, appraisal may be requested by either you or us but shall not be compelled. Each party shall notify the <br />other of the appraiser selected within 20 days of the request. The two appraisers will select an umpire. If they <br />cannot agree within 15 days, either may request that selection be made by a judge of a court having <br />jurisdiction. The appraisers will state separately the value of the property and actual cash value and amount <br />of loss. If they fail to agree, they will submit their differences to the umpire. A decision agreed to by any two <br />will set the amount of actual cash value and loss and will be binding. Each party will: <br />a. Pay its chosen appraiser; and <br />b. Bear the other expenses of the appraisal and umpire equally. <br />If there is an appraisal, we will still retain our right to deny the claim. <br />3. Paragraph E.4.e.(1)(a) of the Loss Payment — Building and Personal Property Property Loss Conditions is <br />deleted. <br />4. Paragraphs E.4.e.(1)(b)(i), EA.e.(1)(b)(ii) and E.4.e.(7) of the Loss Payment — Building and Personal Property <br />Property Loss Conditions are deleted and replaced by the following: <br />(b) We will not pay on a replacement cost basis for any loss or damage until the lost or damaged property is <br />actually repaired or replaced.
