Your policy contains an arbitration provision (shown below). It allows you or the Company to require arbitration if the
amount of insurance is $2,000,000 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
