                             in sound condition.
Conditions

                             The Insured Party must take all reasonable precautions to prevent injury and damage to
                             persons and property.
                             The Insured Party must give immediate notice of an incident which may give rise to a claim
                             or of receipt of advice of a claim.
                             The Insured Party must not make any admission, offer or promise in connection with any
                             claim and must not any time admit liability.

                             The Insured Party must made themselves aware of and comply with the following Notices:-

                              Duty of Disclosure Before you enter into a contract of General insurance with an insurer,
                              you have a duty, under the Insurance Contracts Act 1984 as amended, to disclose to the
                              insurer every matter that you know, or could reasonably be expected to know, is relevant
                              to the insurer's decision whether to accept the risk of the insurance and, if so, on what
                              terms.
                              You have the same duty to disclose these matters to the insurer before you renew,
                              extend, vary or reinstate a contract of General insurance.
                              Your duty however, does not require disclosure of matter:-
                                  that diminishes the risk to be undertaken by the insurer
                                  that is of common knowledge
                                  that your insurer knows or, in the ordinary course of his business, ought to know.
Non-Disclosure If you fail to comply with your duty of disclosure, the insurer may be
    entitled to reduce his liability under the contract in respect of a claim or may cancel the
    contract.
     If your non-disclosure is fraudulent, the insurer may also have the option of avoiding
     the contract from its beginning.
     Average Provision The insurer will pay legal expenses in addition to the sum insured, if
     however, the total amount of the loss (less legal expenses) ultimately paid to the
     claimant(s) exceeds the sum insured then insurers will only pay (in addition to the sum
     insured) that proportion of the legal expenses as the sum insured bears to the loss.
     Third Party Interests This policy will only provide cover for your interest and does not
     cover the interests of any third party (e.g. financiers, lessors, etc) unless the interests of
     the third party are noted in the policy.
     Waiver of Insurer's Rights You must not enter into any agreement without the
     written authority of the insurer whereby any of their rights to which they become
     entitled as your insurer after settling or agreeing to settle a claim are prejudiced or
     limited in any way otherwise all benefit under the policy will be forfeited.

NOTE      1.    All enquiries to be referred to Arthur J Gallagher Insurance Brokers

                Tel. no. (02) 9424 1888
          2.    CLAIMS
                (a)    No admission of liability or fault may be made in any form to a claimant.
                       To do so may breach the policy conditions and enable insurers to avoid
                       settlement.
                (b)    Any notice of a potential or actual claim must be referred immediately to
                       Arthur J Gallagher Insurance Brokers
          3.    Nothing herein shall be construed to alter in any way the scope of insurance
                policy, its terms, conditions or exclusions, issued by insurers.
          4.    RAHSSA is not liable to the Insured Party in the event a claim is not paid or
                payable by Insurers unless RAHSSA fails to take reasonable steps to advise that
                the cover is or is likely to be cancelled or not renewed.
          5.    RAHSSA is not an Australian Financial Services (AFS) Licence holder. RAHSSA
                is not providing financial product advice, has not considered the particular needs
                of the Insured party and no statement is intended to influence a person or
                persons making a decision in relation to any insurance cover. You should
                consider obtaining your own financial product advice from person holding an AFS
                Licence.
          6.    This insurance only applies to insured parties entering competition in accordance
                with the general regulations.
