WHAT IS HEP®?
The Henry Equestrian Plan® is a comprehensive horse insurance plan specifically designed to provide all the coverage you need in one low package premium. HEP® covers any pleasure horse up to $150,000.00 (Cdn.) in value. For a higher limit of insurance, please contact your HEP® Representative. This program does not apply to horses used commercially or for racing.

FULL MORTALITY INSURANCE
Your horse, if at least 48 hours old and under 17 years of age, can be protected against death as a result of any accident, sickness or natural cause plus intentional destruction by a qualified veterinarian, for humane reasons. It does not cover malicious or willful injury, caused by the insured, his family or servants, or intentional slaughter, unless permission is given by the insurance company.

SPECIFIED PERILS INSURANCE
Your horse, of any age, is protected against death or destruction directly resulting from fire, lightning, collapse of building, theft, earthquake, flood, collision or overturning of conveying vehicle, loading and unloading and accident to air craft. Note: the above descriptions of coverages are brief summaries only. Please see the wordings booklet for a complete outline of coverages and conditions.
