Combination property, liability, and business interruption policy.

Businesses that qualify under this heading include office buildings three stories or under not to exceed 100,000 square feet; apartment buildings six stories or under not to exceed 60 dwelling units; any other buildings not to exceed 7500 square feet for mercantile space, occupied principally as an apartment, office, or engaging in trade or commerce. Properties that cannot be insured under this policy include banks, condominiums, bars, restaurants, automobiles, recreational vehicles, contractor functions, and manufacturing operations.
