GENERAL PROVISIONS Incontestability All statements made by the Employer or by an Insured are representations not warranties. No statement will be used to deny or reduce benefits or as a defense to a claim, unless a copy of the instrument containing the statement has been furnished to the claimant. In the event of death or legal incapacity, the beneficiary or representative must receive the copy. After two years from an Insured's effective date of insurance, or from the effective date of any added or increased benefits, no such statement will cause insurance to be contested except for fraud or eligibility for insurance. Misstatement of Age If an Insured's age has been misstated, we will adjust all benefits to the amounts that would have been purchased for the correct age. Workers' Compensation Insurance The Policy is not in lieu of and does not affect any requirements for insurance under any Workers' Compensation Insurance Law. Assignment of Benefits We will not be affected by the assignment of your certificate until the original assignment or a certified copy of the assignment is filed with us. We will not be responsible for the validity or sufficiency of an assignment. An assignment of benefits will operate so long as the assignment remains in force provided insurance under the Policy is in effect. This insurance may not be levied on, attached, garnisheed, or otherwise taken for a person's debts. This prohibition does not apply where contrary to law. Clerical Error A person's insurance will not be affected by error or delay in keeping records of insurance under the Policy. If such an error is found, the premium will be adjusted fairly. Ownership of Records All records maintained by the Insurance Company are, and shall remain, the property of the Insurance Company. TL-004728 15
