TERMS OF BUSINESS AGREEMENT

This Agreement is between ‘You’ the client or potential client ‘You, Your’ and DNA Insurance Services Limited ‘We, Us, Our’, and
applies to all work that We carry out on Your behalf. Please read this Agreement carefully and contact Us if there is anything in this
Agreement with which You disagree or do not understand.
1. INTRODUCTION
DNA Insurance Services Limited is part of the Aston Lark group of companies. We are an independent intermediary and are
authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) and bound by its rules in respect of insurance distribution activities.
Our Financial Services register number is 304985 and Our registered address is 8th Floor Ibex House, 42-47 Minories, London,
United Kingdom, EC3N 1DY.
You can check this on the Financial Services Register by visiting the FCA’s website https://register.fca.org.uk or by contacting the
FCA on 0800 111 6768. The Financial Services Register also sets out Our permitted activities.
We are not tied to any insurer and no insurer holds any shareholding in Us or any of Our subsidiaries or associated companies. We
do not have any holdings or voting rights in any insurer.
2. OUR SERVICE TO YOU
We will act as an insurance broker to arrange and administer contracts of insurance on your instructions.
We will normally provide a personal recommendation to You on the basis of a fair and personal analysis of the market, as distinct
from using only a single or limited number of insurance undertakings. Where Our service differs to this, either because We only
consider one or a restricted number of insurers, or if We do not give You a personal recommendation about the insurance products
offered (in which case You are responsible for ensuring that it is suitable for You), We will advise You accordingly and, in the former
case, We will provide You with the names of those insurers with which We conduct business.
We will provide You with details of the cover effected on Your behalf, including the insurer(s) who are underwriting the risk, and will
clarify the scope of the advice given and explain the reasons. This will be provided in a durable medium (which includes email, unless
You tell Us otherwise). We will provide You with evidence of cover and all relevant documentation promptly after inception of a policy.
On occasion We may arrange insurance on Your behalf with insurers that have granted us a delegated underwriting authority. This
authority may extend to the management of Your claims. We will notify You in the event We are acting under a delegated authority.
Although Our letter/report will set out key aspects of the cover, this is not intended to be a substitute for the insurer(s) policy wording,
which will take precedence in setting out the terms of the cover. We will use Our best endeavours to place cover on Your behalf, but
We do not guarantee to be able to do so.
While We take care to ensure that the information contained on Our website is accurate and up to date, We give You no promises,
representations or warranties about the accuracy, completeness, reliability or suitability of any information on Our website.
Where We offer an instalment facility to You in order to pay Your insurance premium by regular instalments, We do not offer advice
in relation to this, but We may ask some questions to narrow down the selection of options available; You must make Your own
choice on which option to accept.
We only act as a credit broker when arranging instalment facilities on Your behalf, and not as a lender.
We aim to treat You fairly and to meet the following outcomes in all Our dealings with You:

• You can be confident that the fair treatment of customers is central to Our corporate culture.
• The products and services that We have recommended to You and You have chosen are designed to meet Your insurance
needs as far as reasonably possible.
• We will provide You with clear information and keep You appropriately informed before, during and after the point of sale.
• You will not face unreasonable post-sale barriers to submit a claim or make a complaint.
• We will give You appropriate information about the products and services We recommend, including details of any costs or
charges (if any) in addition to Your premiums.
Motor Insurance Database (MID)
In accordance with the 4th European Union Motor Insurance Directive as codified by Directive 2009/103/EC (and any subsequent
legislation), where We have agreed with You to provide this service, We will endeavour to assist You in complying with the legislation
surrounding the notification of vehicles to the MID. We may charge for this assistance. It should be noted that the responsibility for
notification of vehicles or information remains with You. We cannot accept responsibility for any item either incorrectly registered or
not registered on the database, whether notified to Us or not.

3. CONFLICTS OF INTEREST
We are committed to providing a professional standard of service to Our clients, and accordingly We endeavour to manage any
conflicts of interest that may arise. Conflicts can arise in the course of Us providing any service between:
1. DNA Insurance Services Limited, including Our managers, employees and appointed representatives, or any person directly or
indirectly linked to them by control, and a client of Ours; or
2. One or more of Our clients.
We will inform You in the event that a conflict situation occurs and agree with You the most appropriate way of dealing with it. It may
be necessary for information to be handled by different departments within DNA Insurance Services Limited (commonly referred to
as Information Barriers).
This will require that persons employed in one department of Our business withhold the information held from those in another
department of Our business. However, some circumstances may require that We do not act for one (or both) of the parties if the
conflict cannot be adequately addressed by Our internal controls. We will discuss this with You, where this is the case.
For further details please request a copy of Our Conflicts of Interest Policy
4. SECURITY
Whilst We make every effort to ensure that cover is placed with financially strong companies, We do not guarantee the solvency of
any insurer We place business with. If a participating insurer becomes insolvent, You may still be liable to pay the premium, whether
in full or pro-rata and for this reason We will not recommend, or place Your business with, insurers that do not have an adequate
financial strength rating (BBB- or better from Standard and Poor’s or equivalent) from an independent rating agency such as Standard
and Poor’s or A M Best. If You want unrated insurers to be considered You must explicitly request this, and whether We agree to
such request is at Our sole discretion and subject strictly to Our requirements as in force from time to time. Alternatively, You may
be able to access unrated insurers either direct or via an alternative Insurance Intermediary.
5. YOUR OBLIGATIONS
When instructing Us to place or to renew insurances, Your obligations will differ depending on whether You are classed as either a
consumer or a commercial client.
Consumer
If You are a consumer (defined by the FCA as: any natural person acting for purposes outside his trade, business or profession) You
must use reasonable care not to make a misrepresentation to insurers (which includes a failure to comply with the insurer's request
to confirm or amend particulars previously given). Failure to comply with this duty may mean that the policy is void and the insurer
may not be liable to pay all or some of Your claim(s).
Commercial client
If You are a commercial client, You must make a fair presentation of the risk to insurers.
A fair presentation of the risk involves disclosing:

• every material circumstance which any individual who is part of senior management or responsible for arranging your insurance
knows or ought to know (including what should reasonably be revealed by a reasonable search of information available, including,
for example, by making enquiries of Us); or
• sufficient information to put the insurer on notice that it needs to make further enquiries for the purpose of revealing those material
circumstances,
in a manner (i) that is reasonably clear and accessible to the insurer, and (ii) in which every material representation as to a matter of
fact is substantially correct, and every material representation as to a matter of expectation or belief is made in good faith.
A material circumstance is one that would influence the insurer's judgment in determining whether to take the risk and, if so, on what
terms.
This duty continues throughout the term of Your insurance. You should familiarise Yourself with Our Insurance Act guide for further
information about Your obligations and insurer remedies, which is available at www.astonlark.com or contact Your usual advisor for
details.
All answers or statements given on a proposal form, claim form or other document relevant to Your insurances will be Your
responsibility and You should always check the accuracy of the information You provide to Us and/ or insurers. Failure to comply
with Your duty of fair presentation of the risk may mean that the policy is void and the insurer may not be liable to pay all or some of
Your claim(s).

DNA Insurance Services Limited – December 2022

You should seek Our advice if You are in any doubt as to Your obligations.
When a policy is issued, You must check this carefully to confirm that it meets Your needs, and ensure that You are able to meet the
policy terms and conditions. Please seek Our advice promptly if You are in any doubt over any of the policy terms and conditions.
6. RENEWALS
Once We have arranged a policy to which You have agreed, the placement of that policy will not automatically be reviewed at each
renewal unless You request it and/or We deem it necessary in accordance with the paragraph below.
Whilst We will make reasonable efforts to contact You prior to renewal to obtain Your instructions, if for whatever reason We are not
in receipt of Your instructions by Your renewal date, in order to protect Your position, We may at Our absolute discretion renew Your
policy on the basis of Our recommendation. Such renewal will be based on the information You have previously provided to Us, and
You should therefore advise Us immediately of any changes. However, We reserve the right not to renew Your policy if We do not
receive Your instructions by the renewal date, and We will not be held liable for any loss You may suffer if You fail to provide the
necessary instructions in sufficient time before renewal.
7. CLAIMS
You must tell Us as soon as possible of any incident or circumstance which may result in a claim under any insurance arranged by
Us and of all relevant facts relating to it. Failure to do so may result in the insurer not paying the claim. This is in addition to any
obligations imposed by insurers, details of which will be set out in the policy wording. We will notify insurers in accordance with the
circumstances notified by You. You will be required to give all necessary information and assistance required by insurers in order to
deal with Your claim.
In some circumstances, claims will be dealt with directly by Your insurer or by someone appointed by them. We will let You know if
that is the case.
8. LANGUAGE OF COMMUNICATIONS
All communications between You and Us, including all communication of terms and conditions, will be in English, unless otherwise
agreed in writing.
9. ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATIONS
Both parties may communicate with each other using electronic mail and attachments. Both parties accept the inherent risks of using
such means of communication. Both parties are responsible for checking that messages received are complete and both agree that
in the event of a dispute neither will dispute the legal evidential standing of an electronic document. Any agreement reached using
electronic mail will be binding on both parties.
Although We have in place virus protection software You should use Your own virus protection software. Neither We nor You accept
any responsibility to the other for viruses that may enter Our respective systems or data via Our electronic communications.
We are unable to accept instructions from You by means of text messages or other electronic messages or messages received other
than via Our corporate email addresses or, where relevant, by any software We have asked You to use for the purposes of providing
information relevant to Your insurances.
10. TELEPHONE COMMUNICATIONS
Both parties may communicate by telephone, but it is agreed that no instructions that require action will be left on any messaging
service since neither party can guarantee that they will be received or actioned. Telephone conversations may be recorded by Us for
training or monitoring purposes.
11. BRIBERY ACT
You agree to comply at all times with all laws and regulations that apply to You related to anti-bribery and corruption, including the
UK Bribery Act 2010. We fully comply with the Bribery Act 2010, and will not accept any form of payment, gift or service, the intention
of which could be considered to result in the improper performance of Our obligations to You. If We reasonably believe that You have
attempted to offer a bribe or engaged in activities contrary to applicable anti-bribery and corruption law and regulation, We have the
right to terminate Our agreement with You immediately.
12. SANCTIONS
We shall not provide any services and shall not be liable to pay any sums or provide any benefit to You to the extent that the provision
of such services, payment of such sums or provision of such benefit would breach or expose Us to any enforcement or other adverse
action under sanctions, prohibition or restriction under United Nations resolutions or the trade or economic sanctions, laws or

DNA Insurance Services Limited – December 2022

regulations of the European Union, United Kingdom or United States of America. If You have any concerns in relation to any of the
above, You should let Us know.

www.fscs.org.uk
or
Financial Services Compensation Scheme
PO Box 300
Mitcheldean GL17 1DY
17. PAYMENT OF PREMIUM AND OTHER MONIES
Unless payment is made direct to the insurer or to a premium finance company, You must pay Us all amounts due in accordance
with the terms and the payment date specified on Our invoice or other documentation. As We are under no obligation to fund premium
to insurers on Your behalf, failure to pay the monies due by the payment date may lead to insurers cancelling Your policy.
We reserve the right to make charges, in addition to any insurance premiums, for the arranging, amending, renewing and cancelling
any policy of insurance as well as the handling of claims. Please see Section 19 (Our Remuneration) below for further details in
respect of this. However, You will not incur a liability to pay a fee unless We have given You prior notice of this.
18. CLIENT MONEY
We, in the course of carrying on insurance distribution, handle client money in accordance with the FCA Client Assets Sourcebook
(CASS) rules, which are designed to protect You. A copy of the CASS rules is available on request.
We handle client money in either one of the following ways, both of which are described in more detail below:
i. it is held on Your behalf in a segregated bank account that is subject to a non-statutory trust; or
ii. it is held by Us as agent of the relevant insurer (“risk transfer”).

DNA Insurance Services Limited – December 2022

Non-Statutory Trust
The aim of the trust is to protect You in the event of Our financial failure, or the failure of the bank or a third party at which the money
may be held. In such a circumstance, Our general creditors (or those of the bank or third party) should not be able to make claims
on client money, as such money will not form part of Our (or the bank’s or third party’s) property. The fact that We will hold money on
trust gives rise to fiduciary duties which will be owed to You until the client money reaches the insurer, at which time Our fiduciary
duties with regard to Your money will cease.
By holding client money subject to a non-statutory trust, We are entitled to and may make advances of credit from the trust to enable
a client’s premium obligation to be met before the premium is remitted to Us. Similarly, it allows claims and premium refunds to be
paid from the trust to a client before receiving remittance of those monies from the insurer.
Risk Transfer
Risk transfer applies where money is held by Us as agent of a relevant insurer in accordance with a written agreement with that
insurer. The written agreement will specify the extent to which risk transfer will apply and whether it includes all items of money or is
restricted for example, to the receipt of premiums.
Where risk transfer applies, You will be protected to the extent that any premiums We receive from You are treated as having been
received by the insurer when they are received by Us. Where the agreement extends to premium refunds and/or claims, any premium
refunds or claims will be treated as received by You only when they are actually paid to You.
Segregation of Bank Accounts
Client money is kept separate from Our own money. Client money will be deposited into a client bank account with an authorised UK
clearing bank. Any interest earned on client money that is subject to a non-statutory trust will be retained by Us.
Segregation of Designated Investments
We may also arrange to hold client money, that is subject to a non-statutory trust, in separately permitted designated investments
with a value at least equivalent to the money that would otherwise have been paid into a client bank account. If We do this, We will
be responsible for meeting any shortfall in Our client money resource which is attributable to falls in the market value of a segregated
investment. Any investment returns on any segregated designated investments will be retained by Us.
Commission
Where client money is held on a non- statutory trust, We can only withdraw commission from the client bank account in the following
circumstances:
i. when We actually receive the premium as cleared funds from You (or from a third-party premium finance provider on Your behalf);
and
ii. at the point at which the commission becomes due and payable to Us for Our own account provided this is consistent with the
terms of business of the insurer to whom the premium is payable.
Until that point commission will remain client money.
Where risk transfer applies, commission will become due and payable to Us for Our own account immediately on receipt of the
premium, provided this is consistent with the terms of business of the insurer to whom the premium is payable.
Payment to Third Parties
We may transfer client money to another person, such as another intermediary, for the purpose of effecting a transaction through
that person. Where We transfer client money that is subject to a non- statutory trust, to another person, We will remain liable to You
for such money for as long as it remains client money.
19. OUR REMUNERATION
We are remunerated for Our services in the following ways:
Commission
When We arrange a policy with an insurer on Your behalf, We may receive commission from the insurer which is a percentage of the
total annual premium. Any commission is considered to be fully earned when Your insurance(s incepts. We will tell You in writing
(where applicable, upon request) whether we receive such a commission or any other remuneration, including indirect remuneration
(and including the source of such remuneration) for arranging Your insurance or providing You with any other services.

DNA Insurance Services Limited – December 2022

Fees
We may negotiate a fee with you for Our services, however You will not incur a liability to pay a fee unless We have given You prior
notice of this. Where We are not able to supply you with the actual fee, We will supply you with the basis of calculation of any such
fee. We may charge a fee in addition to any commission We are paid by an insurer, and if this is the case, We will inform You. We
will also advise You in advance in the event third party providers that We use to arrange Your insurances charge a fee. Any fee is
considered to be fully earned when Your insurance(s) incepts.
Administration Fees
We will inform You separately of any administration fees that may apply to Your policy. In the event of policy cancellation, any
cancellation fee may be deducted from any refund of premium due to You. Subject to Your policy terms and conditions, no refund
will be issued in the event of a policy cancellation if a valid claim has been made or is intended to be made under that policy. We
reserve the right to deduct any unpaid premium from any claim settlement.
Mid Term cancellation
The following mid-term cancellation fees apply, In addition to retention of commission.

Property Owners cancellation fee £20

All other policies £40

Insurer Fees
Some insurers charge additional fees. We will inform you of these where applicable.
Other fees
We may charge the following fees:

Mid Term Adjustments £40

If your policy is declared void or cancelled due to non-disclosure £100

or misrepresentation

Other Income
In addition to commission, fees and administration fees, We may receive other income from insurers or third parties, including but
not limited to additional payments from insurers based upon pre-agreed criteria, and commission payments from premium finance
providers.
Services on Behalf of Insurers
We have agreements in place with certain insurers that We will undertake certain activities on their behalf which may include
producing policy documentation, compilation of risk data, risk identification surveys, and claims management. In return for these
services certain insurers will make a payment to Us. These payments are separate, and in addition to, any commissions, or fees and
administration fees that You pay Us.
Our Commitment to Transparency
You are entitled at any time to request information regarding any commission or other income which We may have received as a
result of placing Your insurance business. We will provide full details in writing where such request is made within seven (7) working
days.
20. REFUNDS
No refunds will be due if You have paid in instalments or for Classic Car schemes.
Legal Expenses, Breakdown, XS Protection and Guaranteed Replacement Hire Vehicle, if applicable, are not refundable.
21. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
Nothing in this Agreement shall limit or exclude Our liability for personal injury or death caused by negligence, or fraudulent acts, or
any liability to You arising under our regulatory obligations insofar as we are prohibited from limiting our liability to You in relation to
the same.

DNA Insurance Services Limited – December 2022

In respect of all other claims arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, We will not be liable for any loss or damage where
there is no breach of a legal duty owed to you by Us, where such loss is not a reasonably foreseeable result of any such breach, or
for any increase in loss or damage resulting from breach by You of any term of this Agreement. We will have no liability in respect
of losses relating to Your business such as lost data, lost profits or business interruption. For commercial clients, our total
aggregate liability in respect of all claims arising out of or in connection with this Agreement shall be limited to the sum of £10
million, unless otherwise agreed in writing.

apart from the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999.

In the event of termination by You, We will be entitled to receive all fees or brokerage due and payable (whether or not these have
been received by Us) in relation to policies placed by Us prior to the termination of this Agreement, other than where such termination
is in relation to Our breach of this Agreement or as a result of Us not providing the Services in accordance with any specific additional

up.

You with any services, including claims handling where this service is provided to You prior to termination, except where We are
required to continue handling Your claim under the terms of Our delegated authority granted by certain insurers.
Any commission or fee is considered to be fully earned when Your insurance(s) incepts and any unpaid commission or fee will be
due and payable to Us upon termination. Any unpaid fees may also be due and payable prior to inception of Your insurance(s) subject
