6 BINDING AUTHORITY Agents have the authority to bind coverage on any risk that is not identified as "ineligible" in the Ineligible Risks section of this underwriting guide. Agent's authority is for the limits stated and outlined in the various sections of this guide. Any exceptions must be referred to the American Integrity Insurance Company (herein after referenced as the Company or AIIC) for approval prior to binding. A dwelling replacement cost estimator must be completed. The amount of coverage carried on the dwelling shall be one hundred percent (100%) of the current replacement cost or Actual Cash Value (80%) at inception or renewal. All new business submissions must use forms approved by the Company and must be signed by the insured. Applications must be fully complete and payment must be submitted to the Company within 5 business days of binding. Original signed applications and all other required documentation must be maintained in the agent's files. The only exceptions are 4 Point Inspections (for homes over 30 years of age) and Wind Mitigation Inspections (for homes built 2001 or prior) which must be submitted to the Company if Replacement Cost coverage on the Dwelling and Limited Water Coverage is requested. The Company will perform periodic audits of the agent's files to ensure compliance with all rules and guidelines. Note: Section of the Florida Statutes provides that any misrepresentation of material fact, omission or incorrect statement on an application for coverage may prevent recovery under the policy. All risks are subject to an inspection to confirm replacement cost values and/or insurability. The applicant must provide the name and phone number of the person responsible for securing access to both the interior and exterior of the dwelling, including arranging for permission to enter a gated/guarded community. Any requests to increase/decrease coverage may need to be submitted to underwriting. Submissions may require information other than that shown on the application. Agents should obtain any information that helps support acceptance of the request being submitted, especially when the information calls for more explanation or when this manual indicates that additional information is required. Such cases include but are not limited to: Documentation of updates to roofing, heating, wiring, plumbing, etc. Determination of replacement cost or Actual Cash Value Evidence of National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) coverage, if required Evidence of Wind Mitigation features, hip roof and/or Opening Protection For renewal business, the Company has the option to perform an annual inspection to verify correct insurance to value, confirm rating variables such as construction type, and determine if there have been changes in exposure or increased hazards. AIIC will pay the inspection fee on renewal inspections. Our inspections may include but are not limited to an interior, exterior, sinkhole or any combination of these inspections. Risks that do not pass a sinkhole inspection will be non-renewed. The insured may request a comparable policy with no sinkhole coverage (the policy will continue to include Catastrophic Ground Cover Collapse Coverage). Refer to the Sinkhole Loss Coverage section of the manual for complete details. Voluntary Dwelling April 2013 Page 6
7 HURRICANE - TROPICAL STORM SUSPENSION Agents binding authority automatically terminates for new business and coverage increase/decrease when a "Hurricane or Tropical Storm Warning" has been issued by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration or the National Weather Bureau based on the following rules: Hurricanes: Binding is restricted when the Hurricane is within the following boundaries: 72 W longitude, 15 N latitude, 90 W longitude, 32 N latitude. Tropical Storms: Binding is only restricted in areas under a tropical storm warning or watch. The rest of the state remains open. No new coverage shall be written within the first seventy-two (72) hours after a tropical storm or hurricane has left the aforementioned defined area unless the Company has removed the binding restrictions, the agent has inspected the property to verify that no loss has taken place, obtained a signed no loss statement from the applicant and noted on the application that said inspection was made. Renewals will only be issued on an "as expiring" basis for coverage and perils; limits will only be increased to keep pace with established inflation factors. ELIGIBILITY UNDERWRITING(NEW BUSINESS) The risk must meet all qualifications and rules before it can be bound. If there is a question regarding the qualifications, please discuss with your underwriter prior to submission. GENERAL Coverage may be issued on a dwelling containing not more than four units; or a town or row house structure. A dwelling with Coverage A under $125,000 requires color photos (front and back) of home and must be submitted to the Company prior to binding. The peril of windstorm or hail may be excluded if property is eligible for such coverage from Citizens Property Insurance Company (CPIC) or if the insured signs the AIIC DP XW form, indicating the Request to Exclude Windstorm and Hail Coverage. Homes located in a Special Flood Hazard Area (any combination of Zone A or V) must be covered by a Federal Flood insurance policy with matching Coverage A limit (or maximum limit available). Home must be protected with smoke detectors in close proximity of kitchen and sleeping areas. Porches or decks more than 2 feet off the ground or with 3 or more steps leading to them must have properly installed handrails or safety railings. Dwellings with an open foundation with an appropriate surcharge. The Company reserves the right to request color photos of any risk.

11 GENERAL RULES The Dwelling Policy Program provides property and liability coverage, using forms and endorsements specified in this manual. The manual contains the rules and classifications governing the writing of the Dwelling Program policy. The rules, rates, forms and endorsements of American Integrity Insurance Company for each coverage shall govern in all cases not specifically provided for in this manual. APPLICANT Must hold title to home with a maximum of two mortgages. Credit history may be evaluated for all applicants as it relates to insurance eligibility. (Refer to the Insurance Score section for additional details.) Must be an owner or landlord of a dwelling. AGE OF HOME (NEW BUSINESS AND RENEWAL) A home of any age is eligible for the Dwelling Property program; the home must be maintained in good condition regardless of age. A dwelling 30 years of age or less may be eligible without additional requirements unless information is disclosed at the time of application which would make the risk ineligible. A dwelling attaining greater than 30 years of age during the policy term is subject to the underwriting requirements outlined in the following section. Coverage can be added for Water Back Up only if the Limited Water coverage has been selected and evidence of satisfactory updates has been provided. GREATER THAN 30 YEARS A dwelling greater than 30 years of age can only be written with the AIIC HO 09 WD WATER DAMAGE EXCLUSION ENDORSEMENT attached and any loss resulting from water damage will be excluded unless the loss qualifies as a hurricane loss. The loss settlement on Coverage A and B is also changed to Actual Cash Value. The Actual Cash Value loss settlement may be waived for dwellings that have been substantially renovated and/or updated. Evidence of acceptable condition and proof of updates in the past 20 years is required to the following systems: o Plumbing (supply/drain lines have been updated with acceptable materials for all of the sinks, commodes and washer/dryer connections, including the hot water heater), preferred materials for the supply/drain lines are copper, PVC, etc. o Electric (electrical main and sub panels), o HVAC (both heat and A/C units) and o Roof (including primary and secondary roof systems) A 4 Point inspection, receipts or work orders showing the updates are accepted as evidence of eligibility.

12 The Limited Water Damage Endorsement (AIIC DP 09 LWD) is available for an additional premium if the property has documented updates (see above). CANCELLATION OR REDUCTIONS IN LIMITS OF LIABILITY OR COVERAGE Mandatory coverages may not be cancelled unless the entire policy is cancelled. If insurance is increased or reduced, the additional or return premium shall be computed on a pro-rata basis, subject to the minimum premium rule. The insured may cancel the policy at any time for any reason. We will refund any unearned premium pro rata subject to the waiver of premium rule. Note: Hurricane deductible options may only be amended at renewal of the policy. A policy may not be cancelled and rewritten to circumvent this rule. INSURANCE SCORE GUIDELINES The credit of all Named Insured s may be reviewed in compliance with section F.S. and Florida Rule 69B with the consent of the applicant or insured. Credit is evaluated along with prior claims history, condition of property and other risk factors. Credit history is ordered and an Insurance Score (IS) is determined only on the Named Insured s for all new business policies. The agent must obtain permission from the applicant prior to requesting the credit report. If the Insurance Score is below 650, or there is a No Hit/No Score, a CLUE report and a property inspection report are ordered. More than one non- weather related claim or poor condition of the property will make the risk ineligible. When an Insurance Score cannot be generated due to either a No Hit or lack of data the applicant or policyholder will not be adversely affected. A No Hit/No Score qualifies for a discount. For an insured or applicant whether adversely affected by their credit history or not, credit will be reviewed, with policyholder approval, once every two (2) years or at the request of the insured. The insured will receive a discount if their Insurance Score has improved to 700 or above. Insurance Score discounts are available based on an independent grade derived from the applicants credit record, as shown below: (Apply to F-D, F-C, EC-D and EC-C) Factor Level 2: Score of 750 or greater 0.80 Level 1: Score of and No Hit/No Score 0.90 LAPSE IN COVERAGE/NO PRIOR INSURANCE Risks with a lapse in coverage that exceeds 45 days from the date of the lapsed/cancelled policy or have had no prior insurance, must obtain Underwriting approval prior to binding. A Statement of No Loss must accompany any request. If approved, the risk will be subject to a 10% surcharge which will be applied for one (1) year from the date of issuance of the policy. The surcharge does not apply to first time home buyers or renewals. Refer to the Credits/Surcharges section of the manual for the surcharge rules. Any lapse in coverage greater than 90 days will not be accepted in this program and may be eligible for the DP1 program. Force placed insurance is not considered acceptable proof of prior insurance.

Voluntary Dwelling April 2013 Page 13
14 PRIOR CANCELLATIONS/NON-RENEWALS Risks previously cancelled for non-payment or underwriting reasons other than reduction of hurricane exposure, should be referred to the Company and are subject to underwriting approval. If the applicant has been cancelled for non-payment by AIIC, the policy may not be reinstated or rewritten without underwriting approval. If approved, the insured may be asked to provide a Statement of No Loss and a partial or full payment of the premium. PROPERTIES DEEDED IN AN LLC (LIMITED LIABILITY CORPORATION, TRUST OR CORPORATION) The risk may be eligible for the Dwelling Property program if the LLC, Trust or Corporation requires Named Insured status. In these circumstances, liability will be excluded. RENEWAL PLAN If the company elects to offer a renewal, the policy may be renewed by the policyholder by paying the renewal premium prior to the expiration of the current policy. A renewal policy will be issued based on the premiums, forms and endorsements in effect at time of renewal. A new declarations page will be issued. A payment schedule will be mailed with each renewal offer, 60 days prior to the expiration date of the policy term, if the policyholder is the payee. If the account is escrow billed, then a billing statement will be mailed to the policyholder and the mortgage holder. The insured is responsible for ensuring the payment is received prior to the expiration of the policy term. The following risks are not eligible for offers of renewal coverage: Properties failing to be maintained in safe and serviceable condition or where repairs have not been completed or when the insured has failed to mitigate risk hazards. Properties no longer meeting minimum or maximum coverage limit requirements or failing to maintain proper insurance to value. Properties not meeting or continuing not to meet eligibility standards applicable to new business. Property claims that are a result of an act of God will not be used as a cause for cancellation or non-renewal unless the insured has failed to take action reasonably necessary to prevent recurrence of damage to the insured property. Risks determined by the Company to be unacceptable for renewal coverage due to: 1. Exposure management considerations, company financial performance, prospective business plans or objectives; 2. The availability and pricing of reinsurance; 3. Factors relating to the risk that would have adversely affected the Company s overall risk assessment if those factors had existed or been known at the time of initial underwriting. The Company, in its discretion, may offer renewal coverage to a risk not otherwise eligible for renewal pursuant to this rule based upon characteristics of the risk or an overall risk assessment, or the Company may determine pursuant to an overall risk assessment that it will not offer a renewal policy to a risk otherwise meeting eligibility criteria. Voluntary Dwelling April 2013 Page 14
15 ROOF (NEW AND RENEWAL BUSINESS) A roof must be in good condition and not be worn, with patched areas, multi-layered or unrepaired damage.

No diving boards or slides are permitted. TOWN OR ROW HOUSE (NEW BUSINESS) A policy may be issued for a Town or Row house if it can be determined that it does not exceed the maximum allowed number of units. The following should be considered in the determination: Each unit must be separated by parapet* walls or adequate masonry firewalls. There may be a maximum of 8 units per building if a firewall is between each unit. For example, a 2 family dwelling attached to a 1 family dwelling is considered 3 individual family units within a Fire Division if both dwellings are not separated by a firewall. Four attached 2 family dwellings are considered 8 family units within a Fire Division if they are not separated by firewalls (and thus ineligible). Coverage A is available when a dwelling contains 4 or less family units within a Fire Division and/or Coverage C in a dwelling with 1 or more individual family units within a Fire Division. See Single Building Definition *A parapet or firewall that pierces the roof and extends above the roof line at least 15 or higher shall be considered a separate dwelling.

INSURANCE TO VALUE Risks must be insured for 100% of replacement cost as determined by an acceptable cost estimator done at the time of application, endorsement or renewal of policy (a cost estimator must be maintained in the Agent s Office and is subject to audit at the request of the Company). A home older than 30 years of age must be insured at 100% of Actual Cash Value which can be obtained by adjusting the cost estimator for depreciation.

23 DEDUCTIBLES All policies are subject to a deductible that is applied to a Section I- Property loss. The two deductibles are an All Other Perils Deductible and a Hurricane Deductible. When Wind coverage is included in the policy, the base deductibles are: $500 All Other Perils deductible $500 Hurricane deductible When a loss occurs from a peril other than Hurricane, the All Other Perils deductible will be applied to the reported occurrence. If a reported loss is due to a Hurricane then the deductible will be applied as outlined in the following section. Optional deductibles are also available and are outlined below. For all perils except hurricane (apply to F-D, F-C, EC-D, EC-C) Amount Factor $ , , , Hurricane Deductibles (Not available for policies excluding wind) A hurricane deductible subjects the policy to a percentage deductible amount that applies to any Section I- Property loss due to damage from the perils of Hurricane. During a hurricane, the deductible will be applied beginning at the time a hurricane watch or warning is issued for any part of Florida by the National Hurricane Center of the National Weather Service and will end 72 hours following the termination of the last hurricane watch or hurricane warning issued by the National Weather Service. A Hurricane means a storm system that has been declared to be a hurricane by the National Hurricane Center of the National Weather Service. The National Weather Service currently uses the Saffir/Simpson Hurricane scales to categorize hurricanes. This scale specifies that a hurricane is a storm that originates in the tropics and results in either a sustained wind speed of at least 74 miles per hour or a storm surge of at least 4 feet above normal. A hurricane deductible shall apply on an annual basis to all covered hurricane losses that occur during a calendar year, regardless of the policy term. If there was a hurricane loss for prior hurricane(s) during a calendar year, the deductible applying to a subsequent hurricane loss is the greater of the remaining amount of the hurricane deductible or the amount of the deductible that applies to perils other than a hurricane. Hurricane deductibles may only be changed at time of renewal. Note: Hurricane deductible options may only be amended at renewal of the policy. A policy may not be cancelled and rewritten to circumvent this rule.

29 An approved inspection service is one that has been designated by us as competent to perform the evaluation, and whose report format meets our informational requirements. The insured will contract directly with the approved inspection service, and pay an arranged fee, which will be half of the amount we have negotiated with the inspection service. We will pay the other half and both parties will receive a copy of the inspection. The fee will not be refundable no matter the underwriting decision reached. The inspection will document existing damage, evaluate the structural integrity of the dwelling (such as cracking, shifting or settlement of the house, doors that will not close properly, etc.) for any visible depressions or voids in the ground and verify that there is no current or proximate sinkhole activity that has not been disclosed. For risks that do not pass inspection, the insured may request a policy without Sinkhole Loss Coverage (the policy will continue to include Catastrophic Ground Cover Collapse Coverage).

32 PREMIUM CALCULATIONS This section provides explanation of how premiums are determined and what adjustments are applied to price each risk. Fire premiums are calculated by multiplying Fire-Dwelling (F-D) and Fire-Contents (F-C) Base Rates by the appropriate factors. Fire base rates are $102 and $30 for dwelling and contents respectively in all territories. Extended Coverage Base Rates are provided for the peril of Hurricane, and all other Extended Coverage perils. The Extended Coverage (non-hurricane) Base Rates for Dwelling (EC-D) and Contents (EC-C) as well as Hurricane Base Rates for Dwelling (H-D) and Contents (H-C) are multiplied by the appropriate factors to calculate Extended Coverage Premiums. Throughout the rating section of this manual, the Fire and Extended Coverage Base Rates are abbreviated as follows: Dwelling Contents Fire F-D F-C Extended Coverage (non-hurricane) EC-D EC-C Hurricane H-D H-C Rules and rates applicable to coverage options are presented throughout the Dwelling Property Manual. Additional premiums are presented as a dollar amount, or a percentage of the unadjusted base rates. Rates and eligibility rules for optional coverages follow premium adjustments.

For dwelling amounts from $70,000 to $160,000, increase factor by 0.1 for each $10,000. II. The factor for dwelling coverage amounts greater than $160,000 is determined by dividing the desired coverage amount by $160,000 and multiplying it by 2. For example, the factor for $200,000 dwelling coverage is 2.5 (($200,000 / $160,000) * 2). III. The factor for contents coverage amounts greater than $25,000 is determined by dividing the desired coverage amount by $25,000. For example, the factor for $50,000 contents coverage is 2.0 ($50,000/$25,000). Voluntary Dwelling April 2013 Page 32

AGE NHR Year Built HUR F-D&C EC-D&C Year Built Fac and newer * * * and Older 0.80 *All homes built in 2002 or later receive a minimum additional 68% FBC 2001 new home credit (.32 factor) on the hurricane premium. New homes built in wind speed design zones greater than 110 mph receive a higher discount. TOTAL RENOVATIONS If acceptable documentation demonstrates that a residence has been a total renovation*, the year in which the renovation began may be used as the date of construction. A total renovation (will require a new certificate of occupancy or certificate of completion) is defined as a home with updates to include new electrical wiring at the panel and in all walls, new plumbing (above the slab) and in all walls, heating and A/C to include the duct work, roof and window systems, and must be verified by a certified inspector based on an on-site inspection. *Complete documentation should be submitted to underwriting prior to binding.

34 BUILDING CODE EFFECTIVENESS GRADING The Building Code Effectiveness Grading Schedule develops a grade of 1 to 10 for a community based on the adequacy of its building code and the effectiveness of its enforcement of that code. Policies may be eligible for special rating adjustments subject to the criteria in this section. In some communities, two Building Code Effectiveness Grades may be assigned. One grade will apply to 1 and 2 family dwellings and the other to multiple unit dwellings. The Public Protection Classification Manual will indicate the application of each grade. The Building Code Effectiveness Grades for a community, and their effective dates, are provided in the Public Protection Classification Manual published by ISO Commercial Risk Services, Inc. COMMUNITY GRADING The Building Code Effectiveness Grade applies to any building that has an original certificate of occupancy dated in the year of the effective date of the community grading, or later. If a community is re-graded subsequent to its initial grading, the factor for the revised grade applies to buildings that have an original certificate of occupancy dated the year of the effective date of the revised grading, or later. Where certificates of occupancy are not issued, reasonable evidence of year of construction will be accepted. If, due to an addition or alteration, the original building is changed to comply with the latest building code, the factor for the community applicable at the time the reconstruction is completed will apply. INDIVIDUAL GRADING Where buildings have been built in full conformance with the natural hazard mitigation elements of one of the nationally recognized building codes even though the community grade is greater than 1, or the community is not participating in the program, exception rating procedures may apply. Any building may be classified as Grade 1 for Windstorm or Hail upon certification by a registered or licensed design professional based on an on-site inspection that such building is in compliance with one of the three nationally recognized building codes with respect to mitigation of the windstorm and/or hail hazard. This classification is effective only from the date of the certification. Voluntary Dwelling April 2013 Page 34

41 Roof Cover - The covering applied to the roof deck for weather resistance, fire classification or appearance. The most common roof covering materials in Florida are composition shingles and tiles. A key factor in roof covering performance is the method of attachment of the roof covering to the roof deck. The Florida Building Code 2001 (Section 1504) has material requirements and attachment specifications that are superior to common roof covering building practices in the past. For composition shingles, these requirements include self-seal strips and compliance with ASTM D-3161 (Modified for 110 mph). This requirement is commonly referred to as the "110 mph" rated shingle. FBC Equivalent - The roof covering specifications of the 1994 SFBC also require improved attachment methods and testing to a similar protocol. Therefore, these roof coverings are considered to be sufficiently similar to FBC roof coverings to be classified in the "FBC Equivalent" category. The rating of roof covering for existing construction can be achieved by requiring the roofing contractor to certify that a prior installation met the 1994 SFBC or the FBC 2001 requirements. Otherwise the current roof covering should be rated as Non-FBC equivalent. Insurers should remind owners of existing houses that when the re-cover their roofs, they need to have their contractor certify that the installation meets the FBC 2001 Chapter 15 requirements in order to receive the new roof covering credit. Non-FBC Equivalent - Roof coverings that do not meet the 1994 SFBC or the FBC 2001 requirements. (see above) Roof Deck Attachment - The performance of the roof deck is of critical importance in keeping hurricane loses to a minimum. It usually only takes the loss of a small portion of the roof deck before the losses for the building become substantial. Rain enters into the building and produces water damage to the interior and contents. The most common roof deck types are plywood and Oriented Strand Board (OSB) decks. Prior to the availability of plywood, the most common roof decking was dimensional lumber or tongue and groove boards. Dimensional lumber or tongue and groove boards are nominally thick and are laid in a fashion that is parallel to the ridge or diagonal to the ridge. These roof decks are fastened by at least two nails per truss/rafter connection. Because of the inherently large number of nails in dimensional lumber or tongue and groove, the uplift capacity is generally far greater than typical plywood/osb decks. By far the most important feature of roof decks is the attachment to the framing, which is usually achieved by nail fasteners. Nail size, type, spacing and penetration depth into the truss or rafters determines the uplift resistance of the deck. The difference in uplift capacity of 8d (2 1/2 inch) nails at typical nail spacing and 6d (2") nails at the same spacing is a factor of about two times stronger, which makes a significant difference in deck performance in hurricanes. The thickness of the deck material is also important primarily in the determination of the penetration depth on the nail into the truss/rafter. Prescriptive building codes specify longer nails for thicker decks. Level A - Plywood/OSB nailed with 6 penny common nails at 6" spacing on the edge and 12" in the field on 24" truss spacing. This provides for a mean uplift resistance of 55 lbs per sq ft. Level B - Plywood/OSB nailed with 8 penny common nails at 6" spacing on the edge and 12" in the field on 24" truss spacing. This provides for a mean uplift resistance of 103 lbs per sq ft. Voluntary Dwelling April 2013 Page 41
42 Level C - Plywood/OSB nailed with 8 penny common nails at 6" spacing on the edge and 6" spacing in the field on 24" truss spacing. Within 4'of a gable end the nail spacing is 4". This provides for a mean uplift resistance of 182 lbs per sq ft. for non-gable end locations and 219 lbs per sq ft for gable end locations. Level D - Dimensional lumber and tongue and groove decks. Over 90% of the RCMP inspected dimensional lumber decks have 8d or greater nails. The case of two 8d nails per board produces a mean uplift resistance of 338 lbs per sq ft. There are many technical issues that affect the proper rating of the roof deck including a variety of available nail sizes, nail penetration depths, the consideration of missed nails, etc. Proper inspection guidelines and training are essential to determining the deck attachment of existing residences. Roof-Wall Connection - The roof to wall connection is another critical connection that keeps the roof on the building and acts to transfer the uplift loads into the vertical walls. This connection is key to the performance of the building due to the large negative pressures acting on the roof. Verification of the type of roof to wall connection requires access to the attic to inspect for accurate house rating. There are several manufacturers of the metal connectors for hurricane uplift connectors and each company has a fairly wide line of products. For practical purposes, a classification is used to distinguish the uplift capacity of these connections based on connector type. The most important feature of any of these connectors - other than toe nails, is that the fasteners used to transfer the loads from rafter/truss to strap to top plate or side wall are always loaded in shear (perpendicular to the nail direction) or the strap is embedded into the bond beam of the masonry wall. Proper installation is critical to connector performance. Toe Nails - A common connection detail in non-hurricane prone areas is the toe-nail, where approximately 3 nails are driven at an oblique angle through the rafter and into the top plate. Clips - Clips are defined as pieces of metal that are nailed into the side if the rafter/truss and into the side of the top plate or wall stud. The metal does not wrap around the top of the rafter/truss and the clip is only located on one side of the connection. Single wraps - The wrap style straps are attached to the side and/or bottom of the top plate and are nailed to the rafter/truss. Double wraps - Straps that are wrapped on both sides of the top plate. Double wraps have twice the capacity of a single wrap. Reinforced Concrete Roof Deck - Although not very common in residential roof construction in Florida, there are homes constructed with concrete roof decks. When these homes are equipped with wind-borne debris impact resistant opening protection, they are extremely resistant to building failures. To qualify for this type of construction, the roof deck must be designed and constructed in accordance with ACI (American Concrete Institute) 318, including integral construction with a masonry wall system. Opening Protection Openings in the wall and roof include windows, doors, sliding glass doors, skylights and garage doors. Gable end vents and other roof vents are not considered openings for purposes of this program. Openings are vulnerable to wind-borne debris impacts in hurricanes and other windstorms. Typical single and double strength glazing are easily broken by impact from lightweight debris that is generated from roof covering failures during high winds. Voluntary Dwelling April 2013 Page 42
43 In addition, heavier debris such as roof tiles, 2X4 wood members and plywood will easily penetrate openings that are not protected by impact resistant products. The protection of openings is perhaps the greatest single loss mitigation strategy for a building. The reason for this is that once a window or door fails, the pressure inside the structure increases due to the breach in the building envelope. The positive pressure inside the building produces an additive load on the building envelope which can be up to twice the load the building would experience without the breach. Hurricane Impact (Class A) All exterior openings or all glazed exterior openings in buildings (doors, windows, skylights and vents, other than roof ridge, gable, soffit and plumbing vents) must be fully protected with impact resistant coverings (e.g. shutters), impact resistant doors, and/or impact resistant window units that are listed as wind borne debris protection devices in the product approval system of the State of Florida or Miami-Dade County. For buildings located in the HVHZ (High Velocity Hurricane Zone) all openings must be protected. Wind borne debris protection systems must have either a Miami-Dade NOA or FBC product approval denoting For Use in the HVHZ. All opening protection devices must meet the following Cyclic Pressure and Large Missile Impact standards as appropriate: Miami-Dade County Notice of Acceptance (NOA) 201, 202 and 203. (Large Missile - 9 lb.) Florida Building Code Testing Application Standard (TAS) 201, 202 and 203. (Large Missile 9 lb.) American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) E 1886 and ASTM E (Large Missile 9 lb.) Southern Standards Technical Document (SSTD) 12. (Large Missile 9 lb.) For Skylights Only: ASTM E 1886/E (Large Missile lb.) For Garage Doors Only: ANSI/DASMA 115. (Large Missile 9 lb.) Basic Impact (Class B) All exterior openings or All glazed exterior openings in buildings (doors, windows, skylights and vents, other than roof ridge, gable, soffit and plumbing vents) must be fully protected with impact resistant coverings (e.g. shutters), impact resistant doors, and/or impact resistant window units that are listed as wind borne debris protection devices in the product approval system of the State of Florida or Miami-Dade County. All opening protection devices must meet the following Cyclic Pressure and Large Missile Impact standards as appropriate: ASTM E 1886 and ASTM E (Large Missile 4.5 lb.) SSTD 12. (Large Missile 4 lb. to 8 lb.) For Skylights Only: ASTM E 1886/E 1996 (Large Missile - 2 to 4.5 lb.) All other cases, including unprotected glazed openings. Roof Shape - Roof shape refers to the geometry of the roof and not the type of roof covering. There are many common roof shapes in residential construction. Gable and hip are the most common although flat, Dutch hip, gambrel, mono slope and many shape combinations are possible. Gable roofs have vertical walls that extend all the way to the top of the inverted V and are very common throughout Florida. A hip roof has sloping ends and sloping sides down to the roof eaves line. Voluntary Dwelling April 2013 Page 43
44 Roof shape determines the aerodynamic pressure loads experienced by the roof due to wind flow and wind direction. Gable and hip shapes and their combinations comprise more than 80% of the residential buildings. Secondary Water Resistance (SWR) - Secondary water resistance is a layer of protection that protects the building if the roof covering fails. This mitigation technique is aimed at keeping rainwater out of the house once the roof covering fails. Generally, roof coverings begin to peel off in peak wind gusts ranging from about 70 to 100 mph. The underlayment (felt) also is easily torn and becomes separated from the roof deck, exposing the house interior to water damage. Water enters through the space between the pieces of the roof deck. SWR covers these seams and provides for redundant water proofing of the house. The most economical way to achieve SWR is to apply Self-Adhering Modified Bitumen Tape to the plywood joints. This self adhering tape is generally known as Ice & Water Shield or Peel N Seal and is a rubber like product applied directly to a roof deck to prevent damage from ice dams in northern climates. Here, the product is applied to the outside of a clean plywood/osb deck prior to the application of regular underlayment and roof covering. The application of SWR is done when a new roof covering is being put on the house. Another way to achieve SWR is a foamed polyurethane structural adhesive applied from inside the attic to cover the joints between all plywood sheets. Note that this product is also used to reinforce the connection between the trusses and roof sheathing, qualifying for improved roof deck attachment. Structural adhesives that meet standard AFG-01 should not be confused with foamed insulating products. The verification of SWR must be done at the time of application since, once covered, it is difficult to verify. The foamed structural adhesive applied from inside the attic however, is readily verified with an attic inspection. Roofing contractors should complete a form to provide certification for the owner in order to receive this credit. Note: underlayment or hot-mopped felts are not SWR. FBC 2001 Construction - Dwellings built to the standards of Florida Building Code 2001 which became effective 3/1/2001. Enclosed Building - An enclosed structure is designed assuming that all openings are closed and, therefore, the wind loads are determined using a small internal pressure inside the building. Partially Enclosed - A partially enclosed building is designed assuming that one or more areas of the building are open to allow wind to enter the building and pressurize the interior. This pressurization means that individual parts of the building must be designed to withstand greater wind loads than an "enclosed" building and thus are stronger than the similar features of an "enclosed" house. However, the openings (windows, doors, etc) in partially enclosed designs are vulnerable to wind-borne debris impact failures and the resulting wind and rain water damage to the building interior and contents. Voluntary Dwelling April 2013 Page 44
45 For insurance rating purposes, clearly the design option chosen for a house in the Wind-Borne Debris Region of the FBC is a key factor in hurricane loss mitigation. Enclosed designs in the Wind-Borne Debris Region will have all glazed openings protected for debris impact. These buildings will perform better that partially enclosed designs and will have lower losses. E. WINDSTORM LOSS REDUCTION CREDITS FOR NEW CONSTRUCTION Dwellings Constructed to Florida Building Code 2001 and Later The Wind Premium Credits apply to all wind premium. The credits will apply to the entire calculated hurricane premium. Five percent of the extended coverage premium is for non-hurricane wind coverage. Therefore, the Windstorm Premium Credits apply to five percent of the extended coverage premium. Voluntary Dwelling April 2013 Page 45

51 PAYMENT PLAN OPTIONS AIIC will mail a payment schedule to the policyholder at the issuance of the policy or the renewal term. A revised payment schedule will be mailed to the insured each time a mid-term change results in a change in the premium. Billing statements will not be generated with the automatic bank withdrawal payment method. The policyholder is responsible for ensuring the payment is received by the due date provided on the payment schedule. The method of billing for any policy premium is based on due date and not equity billing. The Company does not accept premium financing. Per Florida Statute , AIIC will give the insured at least 15 days advanced written notice of any increase in policy premiums prior to any automatic bank withdrawal of an increased premium. A payment schedule will be mailed with each renewal offer, 60 days prior to the expiration date of the policy term, if the policyholder is the payee. If the account is escrow billed, then a billing statement will be mailed to the policyholder and the mortgage holder. The insured is responsible for ensuring the payment is received prior to the expiration of the policy term. Regardless of the payment plan selected (paper or electronic) there will be no fee or service charge applied to the initial renewal payment. Several optional payment plans are available in this program. GENERAL RULES The Premium Payment Plan applies to policy premium only. All policy fees are due at policy inception.
