SECTION IX- PAYMENT OF CLAIMS

1. LOSS OF LIFE OF AN INSURED: Covered Losses resulting from the lnsured's death are paid to the named beneficiary at the time of death. If there is no beneficiary named or the named beneficiary predeceases or dies at the same time as the Insured, We will pay the benefit to the lnsured's estate.
2. ALL OTHER CLAIMS: Benefits are to be paid to the Insured.
3. If a Foreign National is entitled to benefits for a Covered Loss and We are unable to make payment directly to him or her because of legal restrictions in the country or jurisdiction where such Foreign National is located, We will either: (1) pay the benefits to a bank account owned by the Foreign National in the United States of America; or (2) if no such bank account is established or maintained, We will pay the benefits to the Policyholder on behalf of the Foreign National.

If the Policyholder does not remit the payment to the Foreign National, the Policyholder will indemnify Us and hold Us harmless against any and all liability incurred by Us including, but not limited to, interest, penalties, and attorneys' fees in connection with, arising or resulting from such failure to remit payment.

SECTION X - GENERAL POLICY CONDITIONS

Any beneficiary designation must be in writing on a form acceptable to Us.
B. CHANGE OR WAIVER: A change or waiver of any terms or conditions of this Policy must be issued by Us in writing and signed by one of Our executive officers.

A failure to exercise any of Our rights under this Policy will not be deemed as a waiver of such rights in the same or future situations.
C. CLERICAL ERROR: A clerical error or omission will not increase or continue an lnsured's coverage, which otherwise would not be in force. If an Insured applies for insurance for which he or she is not eligible, We will only be liable for any premiums paid to Us.
D. CONFORMITY WITH STATUTE: Terms of this Policy that conflict with the laws of the state where it is delivered are amended to conform to such laws.
E. ENTIRE CONTRACT: This Policy, the Policyholder application, Insured enrollment materials, Benefit Riders, and any other attachments represent the entire insurance contract between the Policyholder and Us.

Any action must commence within three (3) years, (five (5) years in Kansas and Tennessee; and six (6) years in South Carolina and Wisconsin) of the date the written Proof of Covered Loss was required to be submitted. If the law of the state where the Insured lives makes such limit void, then the action must begin within the shortest time period permitted by law.

We may examine these records at reasonable times while the Policy is in force and for six years after the termination of the Policy. The Policyholder will report to Us within a reasonable time all changes in information regarding an Insured. The Policyholder will indemnify Us for any benefits or other payments that are caused in whole or in part by the Policyholder's negligence or error in performing the record keeping function.
J. CHOICE OF SERVICE PROVIDER: The Insured has the sole right to choose his or her duly licensed Physician and hospital.
K. TIME LIMIT ON CERTAIN DEFENSES: In the absence of fraud, statements made by the Policyholder or an Insured are deemed representations and not warranties. No such statement will cause Us to deny or reduce the benefits due under this Policy or be used as a defense of a claim, unless it is contained in a signed written application. After two years from the date coverage starts no such statement (except age) will cause this Policy to be contested.
