Part3 -8.3. -SDM shallonlypay 1 claim forPersonalAccident Benefits in respectofPermanent Disabilities incurredbyan Assured Lifepursuant toan Accident, irrespectiveof the numberof claimsmade . Reasons formaterialdifferences a)The reason for this specific change isdue to the fact thatdue to thepromulgationof the InsuranceAct18of2017, thepersonalaccidentbenefits couldno longerbeprovidedundergroup insurancepolicies in thecurrent schemeandmust ratherbeprovided through individual insurancepolicies issued toeachmember.Therefore,whereas thePARs constitute the regulationsdetailing the trustbenefits,andwhich trustbenefitsareunderwritten in termsof separategrouppoliciesentered intobetween theTrustandSDMwith theTrustas thepolicyholderentitled to the insurancebenefits, thePYKContractprovides insurancebenefits to themembersaspolicyholders. b)The reason for this change isdue to the fact that the relevant insurance laws specifically require that the insurermustdetermine the insurancebenefitpayable,unless ithasentered intoabinderagreement (asprescribed)withanotherperson toperform thisexact functionasabinderholder.Note that the relationshipagreement requires continued cooperationbetweenSDM, theTrust, theZCC andKIA. c)The reason for this change is toensure complianceby theTrustandSDMwith theProtectionofPersonal InformationAct4of2013but to furtherallowSDM toprovide theBenefitsunder the structureof thenew scheme. d) Under thePARs,aMember'saccess tovested trustbenefitsagainst theTrustwasdependenton suchMembersqualifyingasMembers in termsof theTrustand furtherqualifying for trustbenefits in termsof the relevantbenefit regulations,which includedqualifying asaMember inGoodStanding (determined,broadly speaking,with reference toperiodicand continuouspaymentof contributions).Therefore,access such thevested trustbenefitswould ceasewhere these requirementswerenotmet.The sameprinciples remainapplicable in respectof somevestedbenefits. In respectof thevested trustbenefitswhichwillbecome insurancebenefitsunder individual policiespursuant to theamended insurance scheme, the termsof thepolicywillneed to complywith thePolicyholderProtectionRulesand the terminationprovisions in thePYKContract (inaddition to the requirementsgivingeffect topreviousgroundsof terminationofvested rights),nowmakesprovision for thatalignmentHowever, it shouldbenoted that the instances inwhich coverwill ceaseare similar to thoseprovided forunder theexisting trust regimeand further that thepolicywillnever lapsedespite thecessationofcover (i.e. cover canbe reinstatedonce the relevant requirementsaremet). It iskey tonotehere thatSDM isnowentitled to terminate the policywhere theTrustwasnotpreviouslyable todo so.This ishowever, standardwording for insurancepoliciesand such cancellation is (due to recent case law) still subject to itbeing in linewithpublicpolicy. *To theextentanydifferencesbetween theprovisionsof theexistingPersonalAccidentRegulationsand theproposedThariyaBarutiPukwanayaKganyaContractshavebeen identified thatdonotadverselyaffect the rightsof themembers to theKganyaBenefitsFundTrust, such changeshavebeenmarked inorange in the corresponding cellsbelow. **To theextentanydifferencesbetween theprovisionsof theexistingPersonalAccidentRegulationsand theproposedThari yaBarutiPukwanayaKganyaContractshavebeen identified thatdoadverselyaffect the rightsof themembers to theKganyaBenefitsFundTrust, such changeshavebeenmarked in red in the corresponding cellsbelow. ***Materialdifferencesor changes indicated in red shading shallbeaccompaniedbya letter referencing thematerialdifferenceor change in the leftmost columnof the tableand the corresponding letter referencing suchmaterialdifferenceor changewillbeaccompaniedbyanexplanation for thematerialdifferenceor change. ****Capitalised termsused in this comparison shallhave themeaningascribed to them in thedocuments considered in this comparison,unless indicatedotherwise R27,000+50%of thePersonalAccidentBenefit -Permanentand total quadriplegia; R27,000+50%of thePersonalAccidentBenefit -Permanentand total quadriplegiaor total lossof twoormore limbsatorabove thewristor ankle; R27,000+50%of thePersonalAccidentBenefit - Permanentand total lossof speech; R27,000+50%of thePersonalAccidentBenefit -Permanentand total lossofhearing inbothears; R13,500+50%of thePersonalAccidentBenefit -Permanentand total lossofhear inoneear; R6,750+50%of thePersonalAccidentBenefit -Partial lossofhearing inoneear (a lossofat least50%); R27,000+50%of thePersonalAccidentBenefit -Permanentand total lossof sight inbotheves; R13,500+50%of thePersonalAccidentBenefit -Permanentand total lossof sight inoneeye; R6,750+50%of thePersonalAccidentBenefit -Partial lossof sight in oneeye (a lossofat least50%); R27,000+50%of thePersonalAccidentBenefit - Lossor lossofuseof limbatorabove thewristorankle; R18,900+50%of thePersonalAccidentBenefit -Complete lossof four fingersonahand (lossofat least twophalanges); R10,800+50%of thePersonalAccidentBenefit -Complete lossof three fingersonahand (lossofat least twophalanges); R6,750+50%of thePersonalAccidentBenefit -Complete lossof two fingersonahand (lossofat least twophalanges); R8,100+50%of thePersonalAccidentBenefit -Complete lossof thumb (lossofbothphalanges)or lossofuseof thumb R4,050+50%of thePersonalAccidentBenefit -Partial lossof thumb (at leastonephalange); Provisionsof theThariYaBarutiPukwanaYaKganyaContract ("TYB Contract") Review of Changes to the Personal Accident Benefits of the Kganya Benefits Fund Trust
