Travel interruption shall be compensated in the event that any of the above circumstances should require the insured to return home for a peremptory reason. The peremptory nature of the accident or illness shall be assessed on medical grounds. With regard to damage to property, the peremptory nature is established if the damage should necessitate the presence of the insured at the location of the accident. The compensation shall be the sum of any necessary additional travel and accommodation expenses incurred as a result of the return home of the insured; reasonable expenses for a new trip to the travel destination in the event that this should be necessary during the term of insurance in order to continue studies or employment; any travel days missed on account of the interruption of holiday; and expenses for unused services, excursions and trips paid for by the insured prior to the travel, to a maximum of EUR 1,000.

Determination of missed travel days Any missed travel days shall be compensated for to such an extent of the total direct travel expenses paid prior to the commencement of the trip as indicated by the ratio of the missed days to the total number of travel days. Travel days shall be calculated in terms of full 24-hour periods from the commencement of the trip. Any missed travel days shall be calculated in terms of full 24-hour periods from the commencement of the interruption until the end of hospitalisation or, at maximum, until the intended completion date of the trip. In the event that the last period calculated thus should be exceeded by 12 hours, the time in excess shall be construed as one (1) full day. In the event that the insured should lose three quarters (3/4) of his/her total travel days, he/she shall be deemed to have lost all the travel days. 5.5 Daily allowance for disability resulting from accident Complete disability that results from an accident during the insurance period to an insured aged 18 to 70 years shall be subject to an agreed daily allowance, and any partial disability to a proportionate allowance.

12 Handicap shall refer to general handicap assessed in medical terms that results to the insured from the accident.

When assessing the handicap, any deficiencies or illnesses of the insured not resulting from the compensable accident shall not be considered. The extent of handicap shall be determined on the basis of the decision on classification of handicaps issued by the Ministry of Social Affairs and Health based on the terms of the Employment Accidents Act. In this decision, injuries are divided on the basis of their seriousness into handicap classes Class 1 shall correspond to a 5% handicap and the subsequent classes each to a further 5% handicap.

Compensation for permanent handicap The compensation shall be paid where the handicap has become permanent. The compensation shall total the proportion of the agreed handicap benefit corresponding to the handicap class. In the event that the handicap class should be increased within three (3) years of payment of the lump sum benefit, a supplementary compensation shall be paid for the difference between the handicap classes. Subsequently, the amount of compensation shall not be adjusted in the event of variation in the handicap class. 5.7 Death benefit Death during travel Reasonable costs of transport home in the event of death of the insured while travelling, or burial costs overseas up to that amount, shall be compensated for on the basis of original invoices or receipts.

The cover shall be applicable to an accompanying child only if the insurance cover of the parents includes insurance in the event of death. The insured sum shall total EUR 2,000 for each accompanying child. From the death benefit shall be deducted any lump-sum benefit for permanent handicap already paid for the same accident.

When assessing the handicap, any deficiencies or illnesses of the insured not resulting from the compensable accident shall not be considered. The extent of handicap shall be determined on the basis of the handicap classification decision issued by the Ministry of Social Affairs and Health, based on the terms of the Employment Accidents Act. In the handicap classification decision, injuries are divided, on the basis of their seriousness, into handicap categories Category 1 shall correspond to a 5% medical handicap and the subsequent categories each to a further 5% handicap.

The compensation shall be paid where the handicap has become permanent. The compensation shall total the proportion of the agreed handicap benefit corresponding to the handicap class. In the event that the handicap class should be increased within three (3) years of payment of the lump sum benefit, a supplementary compensation shall be paid for the difference between the handicap classes. Subsequently, in the event of variation in the level of handicap, the amount of compensation shall not be adjusted Death benefit Death during secondment Reasonable costs of transport home in the event of death of the insured while on a secondment, or burial costs overseas up to that amount, shall be compensated for on the basis of original invoices or receipts. 19

Compensation for death from an infectious disease In the event that the direct cause of death of the insured should be a generally dangerous infectious disease as defined in the Communicable Diseases Decree that was contracted during the trip, the agreed death benefit shall be paid.
