Statute Text
Mortgagee interest and obligation of mortgagee.
A fire insurance policy shall
contain provisions as follows:
(1) If loss
hereunder is made payable, in whole or in part, to a designated mortgagee not
named herein as the insured, such interest in this policy may be canceled by
giving to such mortgagee a 10 days written notice of cancellation.
(2) If the
insured fails to render proof of loss such mortgagee, upon notice, shall render
proof of loss in the form herein specified within 60 days thereafter and shall
be subject to the provisions hereof relating to appraisal and time of payment
and of bringing suit. If this company shall claim that no liability existed as
to the mortgagor or owner, it shall, to the extent of payment of loss to the
mortgagee, be subrogated to all the mortgagees rights of recovery, but without
impairing mortgagees right to sue; or it may pay off the mortgage debt and
require an assignment thereof and of the mortgage. Other provisions relating to
the interests and obligations of such mortgagee may be added hereto by
agreement in writing. [Formerly 743.639]
