Which of the following claims would be EXCLUDED under Section II Coverage E of a standard HO-3?
Explanation
Section II Coverage E excludes bodily injury and property damage arising out of business activities conducted by the insured, including a home-based daycare or any other for-profit venture. The insured would need a separate commercial general liability or in-home business endorsement. The other choices involve typical personal-liability exposures that the standard form covers.
