DELETION OF A TRATION
Issued by Lawyers Title Insurance Corporation

Lawyers Title
DELETION OF ARBITRATION PROVISION
(Not applicable to the Texas Residential Owner Policy)
ARBITRATION is a common form of alternative dispute resolution. It can be a quicker and cheaper
means to settle a dispute with your Title Insurance Company. However, if you agree to arbitrate, you give
up your right to take the Title Company to court and your rights to discovery of evidence may be limited in
the arbitration process. In addition, you cannot usually appeal an arbitrator's award.
Your policy contains an arbitration provision (shown below). It allows you or the .Company to
recilulre arbitration If the amount of insurance is $1,000,000 or less. If you want to retain your right
to sue the Company in case of a dispute over a claim, you must request deletion of the arbitration
provision before the policy is issued. You can do this by signing this form and returning it to the
Company at or before the closing of your real estate transaction or by writing to the Company.
The arbitration provision in the Policy is as follows:
"Unless prohibited by applicable law or unless this arbitration section is deleted by
specific provision in Schedule B of this policy, either the Company or the Insured may
demand arbitration pursuant to the Title Insurance Arbitration Rules of the American
Arbitration Association. Arbitrable matters may include, but are not limited to, any
controversy or claim between the Company and the Insured arising out of or relating to
this Policy, and service of the Company in connection with its issuance or the breach of a
policy provision or other obligation. All arbitrable matters when the Amount of Insurance
is $1,000,000 or less SHALL BE arbitrated at the request of either the Company or the
Insured, unless the Insured is an individual person (as distinguished from a corporation,
trust, partnership, association or other legal entity). All arbitrable matters when the
Amount of Insurance is in excess of $1,000,000 shall be arbitrated only when agreed to
by both the Company and the Insured. Arbitration pursuant to this Policy and under the
Rules in effect on the date the demand for arbitration is made or, at the option of the
Insured, the Rules in effect at the Date of Policy shall be binding upon the parties. The
award may include attorneys' fees only if the laws of the state in which the land is located
permit a court to award attorneys' fees to a prevailing party. Judgment upon the award
rendered by the Arbitrator(s) may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.
The Law of the situs of the land shall apply to any arbitration under the Title Insurance
Arbitration Rules.
A Copy of the Rules may be obtained from the Company upon request."
I request deletion of the Arbitration provision.

TEXAS TITLE INSURANCE INFORMATION
Title insurance insures you against loss resulting trom certain risks to your title.
The commitment for Title Insurance is the title insurance company's promise to issue the title insurance policy. The
commitment is a legal document. You should review it carefully tocompletely understand it before your closing date.
EI seguro de titulo le asegura en relaci6n a p6rdidas resultantes de ciertos riesgos que pueden afectar of tltuto de su
propiedad.
EI Compromiso para Seguro de Titulo es la promesa de la companfa aseguradora de tftulos de emitir la p6liza de seguro
de titulo. EI Compromiso es un documento legal. Usted debe leerlo cuidadosamente y entenderlo completamente antes
de la fecha para finalizar su transaccf6n.
Your Commitment for Title Insurance is a legal contract between you and us. The Commitment is not an opinion or report of
your title. It is a contract to issue you a policy subject to the Commitment's terms and requirements.
Before issuing a Commitment for Title Insurance (the Commitment) or a Title Insurance Policy (the Policy), the Title Insurance . .
Company (the Company) determines whether the title is insurable. This determination has already been made. Part of that
determination involves the Company's decision to insure the title except for certain risks that will not be covered by the Policy.
Some of these risks are listed in Schedule B of the attached Commitment as Exceptions. Other risks are stated in the Policy
as Exclusions. These risks will not be covered by the Policy.
Another part of the determination involves whether the promise to insure is conditioned upon certain requirements being met.
Schedule C of the Commitment lists these requirements that must be satisfied or the Company will refuse to cover them. You
may want to discuss any matters shown in Schedules B and C of the Commitment with an attorney, These matters will affect
your title and your use of the land.
When your Policy is issued, the coverage will be limited by the Policy's Exceptions, Exclusions and Conditions, defined below.
- EXCEPTIONS are title risks that a Policy generally covers but does not cover in a particular instance. Exceptions are
shown on Schedule B or discussed in Schedule C of the Commitment. They can also be added if you do not comply with
the Conditions section of the Commitment. When the Policy Is issued, all Exceptions will be on Schedule B of the Policy.
- EXCLUSIONS are title risks that a Policy generally does not cover. Exclusions are contained in the Policy but not
shown or discussed in the Commitment.
- CONDITIONS are additional provisions that qualify or limit your coverage. Conditions include your responsibilities and
those of the Company. They are contained in the Policy but not shown or discussed in the Commitment. The Policy
Conditions are not the same as the Commitment Conditions.
You can get a copy of the policy form approved by the State Board of Insurance by calling the Title Insurance Company at
1-500-442-7067 or by calling the title insurance agent that issued the Commitment. The State Board of Insurance may revise
the policy form from time to time.
You can also get a brochure that explains the policy from the Texas Department of Insurance by calling 1-800-252-3439.
Before the Policy is issued, you may request changes in the policy. Some of the changes to consider are:
- Request amendment of the "area and boundary" exception (Schedule B, paragraph 2). To get this amendment, you
must furnish a survey or comply with other requirements of the Company. On the Owner Policy, you must pay an
additional premium for the amendment. If the survey is acceptable to the Company and if the Company's other
requirements are met, your Policy will insure you against loss because of discrepancies or conflicts in boundary lines,
encroachments or protrusions, or overlapping of improvements. The Company may then decide not to insure against
specific boundary or survey problems by making special exceptions in the Policy. Whether or not you request
amendment of the "area and boundary" exception, you should determine whether you want to purchase and review a
survey if a survey is not being provided to you.
- Allow the Company to add an exception to "rights of parties in possession." If you refuse this exception, the Company or
the title insurance agent may inspect the property. The Company may except to and not insure you against the rights of
specific persons, such as renters, adverse owners or easement holders who occupy the land. The Company may charge
you for the inspection. If you want to make your own Inspection, you must sign a Waiver of Inspection form and allow the
Company to add this exception to your Policy.
The entire premium for a Policy must be paid when the Policy is issued. You will not owe any additional premiums unless you
want to increase your coverage at a later date and the Company agrees to add an Increased Value Endorsement.
