The Insurer is required to appoint a Claims Representative in each Member State of European Economic Area (EEA) except the one in
which an insurance licence was granted to the Insurer. The position of a Claims Representative may be filled with a natural person or a
legal entity with a permanent residence or with a registered business address in the relevant Member State of the EEA. The Claims
Representative processes claims for and on behalf of the Insurer and for the Insurer’s account; the Claims Representative can act in this
capacity for and on behalf of one or several Insurers; the operations of a Claims Representative do not constitute the establishment of an
Insurer’s branch. The Claims Representative gathers information necessary to examine the Injured party’s claims for indemnification and
acts towards paying such claims if loss is inflicted by the operation of a motor vehicle, in respect of which liability insurance was taken
out in a Member State other than the one in which the Injured is a permanent resident or has a registered business address; which
typically stays in a Member State other than the one in which the Injured is permanently resident or has a registered business address;
on the territory of a Member State other than the one in which the Injured is permanent resident or has a registered business address.
With regard to processing the Injured Party’s claims, the Claims Representative has the right to fully represent the Insurer and must
provide for the examination of the Injured party’s claims in the official language of the Member State in which the Injured is a permanent
resident or has a registered business address; this will be accomplished without a compromise to the right of the Injured to press claims
for indemnification directly against the Insurer or the person who inflicted the loss.

details (please validate the data using the guilty party’s documents): first name, family name and permanent address, business name and
registered business address of the employer, provided that the damage was caused while the party at fault was carrying out their work, first

number or frontier insurance policy number of the motor vehicle of the party at fault if that vehicle is a foreign one (you may also want to obtain
photocopies of those documents). Please, complete together with the other parties involved in the road accident, a Notice of accident form
(available from insurers on completion of coverage formalities). If you do not have the form, please try and draw up a written report listing all
basic identification data concerning the accident (date, time and venue) with the other parties involved in the accident participants and their motor
vehicles, witnesses to the accident and all injured parties and give a detailed account of the circumstances of the accident and the damage

report each accident to a Police Force unit. However, if the accident entails the death of a person or a bodily injury or if an implicated vehicle
including transported assets or any other property sustains damage manifestly in excess of SKK 60,800, under the law you are obliged to
promptly report such a traffic accident to a Police Force unit. If the traffic accident is being investigated by a Police Force unit, do not sign the
police report unless you agree with its wording. If you disagree, make sure that your reservations will be reflected in the report. Please, present
your claim for compensation, enclosing documents corroborating the liability of the driver or holder of the motor vehicle to: The claims
representative appointed in your country by the insurer of the vehicle that caused the accident in case the accident was caused by the motor
vehicle normally based in a Member State of the European Economic Area (EEA) and insured by insurance company of the EEA Member State.
