Communicable Disease Exclusion (For use on power generation, construction and engineering policies)

LMA20-019-PD | 30 April 2020

Lloyd’s Market Association Bulletin

The Joint Power Generation Committee Renewable Energy Sub-Committee and Engineering Business Panel have published the following model endorsement:

  • LMA5397 Communicable Disease Exclusion (For use on power generation, construction and engineering policies).

As with all LMA model clauses, it is purely illustrative and is distributed for the guidance of LMA members, who are free to agree to different conditions or amend as they see fit.

This endorsement is available on the Lloyd’s Wordings Repository (LWR), which can be accessed via www.lloydswordings.com.

The LMA has already published a Coronavirus Exclusion (LMA5391), which emanated from the Personal Accident market (Accident & Health); a Communicable Disease Endorsement (LMA5393) for use on property contracts; a Communicable Disease Exclusion (LMA5394) for use on property treaty reinsurance contracts; a Coronavirus Exclusion (LMA5395) for use on marine and energy liability contracts; and a Communicable Disease Exclusion (LMA5396) for use on liability policies.

The LMA continues to work with various Business Panels/Committees who have requested variants of the coronavirus clause and/or communicable disease language for their class of business. The LMA is, as usual, aiming for a common format/structure and consistency of language across LMA model clauses drafted in response to COVID-19.
