and further provided such voice instruction or advices:

(4) It shall be a condition to recovery under the Computer Systems Rider that the Insured or its agent(s) shall to the best of their ability electronically record all voice instructions or advices received over telephone. The Insured or its agent(s) warrant that they shall make their best efforts to maintain the electronic recording system on a continuous basis. Nothing, however, in this Rider shall bar the Insured from recovery where no recording is available because of mechanical failure of the device used in making such recording, or because of failure of the media used to record conversation from any cause, or error or omission of any Employee(s) or agent(s) of the Insured.

SCHEDULE OF SYSTEMS

All computer systems utilized by the Insured

2. As used in this Rider, Computer System means:

(a)

4. The following portions of the attached bond are not applicable to this Rider:

(a)

the initial paragraph of the bond preceding the Insuring Agreements which read “...at any time but discovered during the Bond Period.”

(b)

Section 9-NON-REDUCTION AND NON-ACCUMULATION OF LIABILITY AND TOTAL LIABILITY

(c)

Section 10-LIMIT OF LIABILITY

5. The Coverage afforded by this rider applies only to loss discovered by the Insured during the period this Rider is in force.

6. All loss or series of losses involving the fraudulent activity of one

 

 


individual, or involving fraudulent activity in which one individual is implicated, whether or not that individual is specifically identified, shall be treated as one loss. A Series of losses involving unidentified individuals but arising from the same method of operation may be deemed by the Underwriter to involve the same individual and in that event shall be treated as one loss.

7. The Limit of Liability for the coverage provided by this Rider shall be One Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($1,500,000), it being understood however, that such liability shall be part of and not in addition to the Limit of Liability stated in Item 3 of the Declarations of the attached bond.

(a)

60 days after receipt by the Insured of written notice from the Underwriter of its desire to terminate or cancel coverage under this Rider, or

(b)

immediately upon receipt by the Underwriter of a written request from the Insured to terminate or cancel coverage under this Rider.

The Underwriter shall refund to the Insured the unearned premium for this coverage under this Rider. The refund shall be computed at short rates if this Rider is terminated or cancelled or reduced by notice from, or at the instance of, the Insured.

11. Section 4-LOSS-NOTICE-PROOF-LEGAL PROCEEDING of the Conditions and Limitations of this bond is amended by adding the following sentence:

“Proof of Loss resulting from Voice Instructions or advices covered under this bond shall include Electronic Recording of such Voice Instructions or advices.”

12. Not withstanding the foregoing, however, coverage afforded by this Rider is not designed to provide protection against loss covered under a separate Electronic and Computer Crime Policy by whatever title assigned or by whatever Underwriter written. Any loss which is covered under such separate Policy is excluded from coverage under this bond; and the Insured agrees to make claim for such loss under its separate Policy.

13. This rider shall become effective at 12:01 a.m. Standard time on 11/01/2006
