ii)  retain the premium;
                        b)  if such breach is not deliberate or reckless, and the insurer would not have entered into
                           the variation but for the breach, the insurer may treat this policy as if the variation was
                           never made, in which case the insurer shall return any additional premium relating to
                           the variation; and
                        c)  in all other cases if, but for the said breach, the insurer would have entered into the
                           variation but:
                           i)  on different terms (other than terms relating to the premium), the  insurer may
                               require that the variation is treated as if it had been entered into on those different
                               terms;
                           ii)  would have increased the premium by more than it did or at all, the insurer may
                               charge such higher premium, effective from the effective date of the variation, and
                               the insured shall pay such higher premium no later than fourteen (14) days after
                               receiving the insurer’s written notice that such higher premium is payable; or
                           iii)  would not have reduced the premium by as much as it did or at all, the insurer may
                               require the insured to reimburse to the insurer a sum equal to any reduction in
                               premium no later than fourteen (14) days after receiving the insurer’s written notice
                               that such amount is payable.

               10.12  Employers’ Liability (Compulsory Insurance) Act 1969
                        The indemnity granted by insured section A clause 2 is deemed to be in accordance with
                        the  provisions  of  the  Employers’  Liability  (Compulsory  Insurance)  Act  1969  and  the
                        Employers  Liability  (Compulsory  Insurance)  Regulations  1998  or  any  subsequent
                        amendment or re-enactment or similar legislation in Northern Ireland, the Isle of Man and the
                        Channel Islands. Where any condition precedent, exclusion, term or condition of this policy
                        is deemed prohibited by the act or regulations, then the insurer will provide an indemnity to
                        the employee under the terms of clause 2 but the insured will repay to the insurer that part
                        of the insurer’s indemnity for which it would not otherwise have been liable under this policy
                        by reason of any such breach of condition precedent, term, condition or exclusion.

               10.13  Fraudulent claims

               10.13.1  If the insured or anyone acting on its behalf makes a fraudulent claim under this policy, the
                        insurer:
                        a)  is not liable to pay the claim;
                        b)  may recover any part of the claim already paid from the relevant insured; and
                        c)  may by notice to the insured treat this policy as having been terminated with effect from
                           the time of the first fraudulent act, in which case the insurer is not liable to that insured
                           in respect of a relevant event occurring after that time and may retain any premium.

               10.13.2  These remedies shall not be available against any other entity insured under this policy that
                        was not implicated in the fraud.
               10.14  Inspection and audit
                        The insurer, or such representative as the insurer may designate, will be permitted but not
                        obligated to inspect the insured’s property and operations and any insured premises at
                        any time given reasonable notice. Neither the insurer’s right to make inspections nor the
                        making thereof nor any report thereon will constitute an undertaking on behalf of or for the
                        benefit of the insured or others to determine or warrant that such property or operations are
                        safe or that any insured premises is in compliance with any environmental law.
               10.15  Late payment of claims
                        The insurer shall, pursuant to section 13A of the Insurance Act 2015, pay any sum due in
                        respect of a valid claim within a reasonable time (which includes a reasonable time to
                        investigate and assess the claim).
