2. Risk  Term is all inclusive, many components  Biological  Radiological  Financial  Corporate Liability  Others “RETS – REMP 2006"   AMERICAN   NUCLEAR   INSURERS

3. Nuclear Liability Insurance Risk  $300 Million US Provided to Each US NPP Site  Protection Covers Operators & Suppliers Against Bodily Injury or Property Damage Caused by Nuclear Hazard  Losses Can Be Catastrophic or Non-Catastrophic  Claims Defense Costs Can Be Major Portion of Claim “RETS – REMP 2006"   AMERICAN   NUCLEAR   INSURERS

4. Nuclear Liability Insurance Risk (Effluent Releases)  Increased Public Awareness of NPP Effluent Releases & Perception of Personal Risk  Public does not differentiate between Isotope of Cobalt and Tritium  1 atom Co-60 ~ 1 atom of Tritium (perception)  NPP Releases Cause Harm ! (Perception) “RETS – REMP 2006"   AMERICAN   NUCLEAR   INSURERS

5. Nuclear Liability Insurance Risk  Recent Global Risk Management Experience – Compliance with Applicable Jurisdictional Regulations does not always offer protection from future environmental liabilities  Facilities Can Mitigate Excessive Claims Defense Costs Through Evidence of Due Care and Proper Operation “RETS – REMP 2006"   AMERICAN   NUCLEAR   INSURERS
