(c) Notices All notices shall be in writing. 7. This Endorsement is part of Policy No [ ] and is otherwise subject to all terms and

conditions of that Policy. Terms defined in the Policy have the same meaning in this Endorsement.

AVN 52P 27.02.06 This clause is published by AICG, but it is expressly not intended to be binding on any market participant. AICG makes no recommendation as to its use in particular policies and recognises that all underwriters are free to offer different policy wordings to their policyholders

NOTES These notes do not form part of AVN 52P. They are intended to clarify the background to the clause and further to comment on a drafting issue as an aid to interpretation. 1. BACKGROUND NOTE

The limited write-back clause was drafted at the request of Global Aerospace with support from the Aviation Working Group and LMBC. Changes to the original draft were made following publication of amended draft for consultation. The clause is intended to apply to policies issued to aviation manufacturers only, and not to other policies providing coverage for product exposure.

2. DRAFTING NOTE

A number of “blanks” have been inserted for completion by the underwriter and/or the broker. These are largely self explanatory except in Para 2 – where the intention is that this should be completed in respect of any relevant parts of the Insured where a policy may include multiple names or alternatively just the Insured.
