RULE 4 - CLASSIFICATION PROCEDURE

Refer to RULE 3 - CLASSIFICATION DEFINITIONS for definitions of terms used in this rule.

A.

Autos owned by an individual, or owned jointly by two or more relatives or resident individuals are classified as follows:

1. PRIMARY CLASSIFICATION

a. Classify the auto according to the age, sex and marital status of the operators, the use of the auto

and the eligibility of youthful operators Good Student classes, and

b. Determine the applicable factor from the Primary Rating Factor tables.

Note: The exposure increases considerably when a youthful driver is first learning to drive. It is

therefore required that when a youthful driver can legally drive unsupervised, he or she be added to the policy as a driver and the appropriate youthful driver classification be applied on the next renewal date.

2. SECONDARY CLASSIFICATION a. Determine if the auto is:

1) a single car; or 2) part of a multi-car risk.

b. Refer to the Safe Driver Insurance Plan to classify operators according to the provisions of the Plan. c. Refer to the Secondary Rating Factor table to determine the appropriate factor to be added to, or

subtracted from the Primary Rating Factor to determine the “Total Rating Factor”.

3. The applicable “Youthful Operator” Classifications shall be applied as follows:

Determine the number of Youthful Operators and the Primary Rating Factor for each at the Pleasure Use Classification.

a. If there are more cars than Youthful Operators, or an equal number of cars and Youthful Operators,

assign operators to cars as follows:

1) Each principal Youthful Operator to the car principally operated;

2) Remaining Youthful Operators to remaining cars in the order of highest rated Youthful Operator

to the car with the highest Total Base Premium without regard to the cars operated; and

3) Any remaining cars at the appropriate No Youthful Operator classification.

4) If an insured is provided with a company vehicle that vehicle will be considered as their primary

(8)

RULE 4 - CLASSIFICATION PROCEDURE (Continued)

b. If there are more Youthful Operators than cars, assign Youthful Operators to cars as follows:

1) Select the Youthful Operators with the highest Pleasure Use rating factors equal to the number

of cars.

2) Of those selected in paragraph 1), assign any principal operator to the cars they principally

operate.

3) Of those remaining after principal operator assignment in paragraph 2), assign operators to cars

in the order of highest rated Youthful Operator to the car with the highest Total Base Premium. After assigning Youthful Operators to cars on the basis of the primary Pleasure Use factors, each factor must be adjusted for the actual car use before determining and applying the Secondary Rating Factor.

c. If the TOTAL BASE PREMIUM is the same for each car, the classification for any youthful operator

who is not the principal operator of any of the autos is applied to the auto with the lowest rated use classification.

TOTAL BASE PREMIUM is the sum of the base premiums for Bodily Injury and Property Damage Liability, No-Fault, Other Than Collision (OTC) and Collision coverages that apply to the auto.

4. SINGLE CAR RISKS AND MULTI-CAR RISKS a. Single Car Risks

If the number of youthful operators exceeds the number of autos, the Youthful Operator Classifications with the highest Primary Rating Factors apply. In determining such classifications, any Good Student qualification shall apply.

b. Multi-Car Risks

The applicable Multi-Car Rating Factor applies if more than one private passenger auto is owned by an individual or owned jointly by two or more resident relatives, and two or more such autos are insured in North Star for any of the following coverages:

Bodily Injury Liability, Property Damage Liability, No-Fault, Other Than Collision (OTC) or Collision insurance. The vehicle operators must be resident relatives of the insured's household.

For purposes of this rule, a relative shall include the following persons: Spouse;

B. CLASSIFICATION CHANGES

Compute premium adjustments on a pro-rata basis when changes in Primary and Secondary Rating Classifications are made. This includes the addition or deletion of an operator during the policy term.

Exceptions:

1. A policy shall not be changed mid-term because of the attained age of an operator of the auto. 2. A policy shall not be changed mid-term to affect a change in the Driving Record Sub-Classification. 3. A policy shall not be changed mid-term solely due to a change in symbol assignment based on a review

Refer to chart shown in RULE 10 for determination of symbols on pickups, vans, farm trucks and unlisted vehicles.

D.

Refer to Territory Definitions to determine the territorial schedule code number for the location where the auto is principally garaged.

Note: When a risk is statutorily required to have, or is eligible for, a coverage that is not available in the

territory of principal garaging, use the registration address to determine the territory for that coverage.

E.

Refer to Rule 9.A. to determine base rates for the desired coverage.

F.

For Stated Amount Coverage multiply the rate by the limit of liability to determine the Base Premium.
