Whereas the Insured Person named in the schedule has applied to The Hollard Insurance Company Limited (the Insurer) for the insurance described herein, the Insurer agrees to provide such insurance subject to:

  1. Any proposal or other information supplied by or on behalf of the Insured Person disclosing all facts that are material to the insurance and known to the Insured and forming the basis of this insurance.
  2. The payment of the premium as stated herein.
  3. The terms, conditions, provisions and exceptions setoutherein or contained in any endorsements attached hereto or subsequently included in this policy.

OPERATIVE CLAUSE

If, during the period of insurance an Insured Person sustains Bodily Injury as the result of an Accident which directly results, within 24 (twenty-four) calendar months, in Death or Disability as further described, the Insurer will pay to the Insured Person or his legal personal representative the Compensation stated in the Policy Schedule.

DEFINITIONS

The following words or phrases shall bear the meaning stated below:

"Insured Person" means the person who is identified as such in the Policy Schedule.
"Accident" means a fortuitous unexpected event occurring at an identifiable place and time.
"Bodily Injury" means traumatic bodily injury caused by an Accident and shall be deemed to include bodily injury caused by starvation, thirst and exposure to the elements as a result of an accidental occurrence.

"Permanent Total Disability" means Bodily Injury resulting in total and absolute disability preventing the Insured Person from following the usual occupation or any other occupation for which he is suited by education or training.
PROVISOS
Provided always that:
  1. The Insurer shall not be liable to pay for Death or Disability resulting from an accident or series of accidents arising from one cause in respect of any one Insured Person, more than the Compensation payable for Death or Disability (whichever is the higher). If a benefit is paid for loss of use of a member, then benefits for individual parts of the same member cannot also be claimed.
  2. No amount under this policy shall carry interest.
  3. The Insurer reserves the rightto change or increase premiums from time to time or to amend the terms, conditions and exclusions of cover in respect of all policies issued under this plan, subject to 30 days notice in writing.
  4. The Insured Person shall not be insured under more than one Multi-benefit Protection Plan with the Insurer. Should more than one policy be in force for the same Insured Person and a claim be lodged for the same benefit, then only the policy with the highest insured amount for the claimed benefit can be called upon to indemnify the Insured Person.

EXTENSIONS

Disappearance: If after a suitable period of time of the disappearance of an Insured Person, it is reasonable to believe that such Insured Person has died as a result of Bodily Injury, the Death benefit shall be payable provided that if such belief is incorrect such benefit shall be repaid to the Insurer.

    2. All other areas of the body – provided the total area affected exceeds 5% (five percent) of the total area of the body.

Compensation payable for the above is a percentage of Compensation in direct proportion to the area affected.

The benefits payable in terms of i) and ii) above shall apply independently and be cumulative, but the overall liability of the Insurers for Permanent disfigurement resulting from an accident or series of accidents arising from one cause for any one Insured Person shall not exceed 100% (one hundred percent) of the amount payable for Permanent Total Disability.

Mobility costs: In the eventthat the Insured Person suffers Permanent Disability of such a nature that he/she needs, and can operate, a self-powered, climbing wheelchair and/or his/her motor vehicle with the controls suitably adjusted, then the Insurers will indemnify the Insured Person for 95% (ninety-five percent) of the costs of such wheelchair and/or suitable adjustments, including wheelchair loading equipment if necessary, up to a maximum liability of R100 000 (one hundred thousand Rand) per Insured Person.

Additional Death Benefit: The Insurer will in addition to the Accidental Death Benefit and on production of a valid Death Certificate of an Insured Person pay the Insured an amount of R15 000 (fifteen thousand Rand) per Insured Person.
