| 146 | Without prejudice to the foregoing, in the event that, on the date on which the User is first notified of a claim (or threatened claim) by the third-party (the "Claim Effective Date"), the User has a higher level of Subscription in place, then the level of cover will correspond to the higher Subscription level. The Claim Effective Date is the date the third party makes a first verbal or written representation of the claim to the User irrespective of when the User receives it. | |
