EXHIBIT 1 – Commissions

Regular Commission: [*].

Profit Commission: to be paid to The Broker annually by The Company based on the performance of the business for each calendar year, such payment to be made no later than 90 days following the end of the year in which the profit commission is earned.

The profit commission shall be equal to 100% of the net profit generated by the business. Net profit for the purpose of this calculation is defined as follows—the gross premium charged to the policyholder, minus the regular commission paid to The Broker, minus premium tax incurred by The Company, minus the stop loss reinsurance premium paid to American Pet Insurance Co, minus claims incurred by The Company (including paid claims plus outstanding claims) minus [*].

Where the net profit for any given year is negative, The Broker will not be eligible for a profit commission for that year.

Each calendar year calculation of the profit commission will be updated annually thereafter (and adjusted accordingly) until its third anniversary, when the calculation made at that time will be considered “final” unless an extension is agreed between the parties.

SOAP Manual

Veterinarian’s use the SOAP acronym as a regular guideline for assessing their patients during an exam.


S – subjective		O – objective		A – assessment		P – plan

Vetinsurance Member Specialists (VIMS) have reconfigured this guideline and developed an efficient and effective way to transcribe the information from veterinary notes into a more legible and summarized report. This report is easily accessible in the Claims Wizard application in PetOrganizer. It is used, by those adjusting a claim, to determine whether or not an enrolled pet’s claimed clinical symptom(s) is consistent with those noted pre-policy, or prior to enrolment with Vetinsurance.

Please consider the VIMS’s coined use of the SOAP acronym, at Vetinsurance it is commonly used as a noun (ex. Fido’s SOAP is complete.) and also as a verb (ex. Have you SOAPed Fido’s records?).

How To SOAP...

Please see attached medical records and SOAP sample.

1.)

PET’S FIRST EXAM. Start at the beginning of the pet’s complete medical records and note the date and any clinical findings specific to that date, or if the pet is healthy, make that notation instead. Be sure to note that it is the pet’s first exam. Note what clinical symptoms the pet showed, and what the veterinarian assessed.

2.)

SECOND AND OTHER FOLLOWING EXAMS. It is only necessary to make entries of exams where clinical symptoms are anything but healthy. Note what clinical symptoms the pet showed, and what the veterinarian assessed.

3.)

NEUTER OR SPAY DATES. It is important to include an entry for the pet which notes the date that the pet was altered, and whether or not the pet was mature (over 1 year of age) or immature (under 1 year of age). This entry can be included in any other entry.

4.)

EXAMS WITHIN THE 5 AND 30 DAY WAITING PERIODS. Before the entry make note that the date of the exam took place within both the accident and illness waiting periods. Otherwise a regular entry, and is not necessary if the pet has continued from a vet certificate.

5.)

EXAMS WITHIN THE 30 DAY WAITING PERIOD. Before the entry make note that the date of the exam took place within the illness waiting period. Otherwise a regular entry, and is not necessary if the pet has continued from a vet certificate.

6.)

EXAMS AFTER THE WAITING PERIODS. If there are any important notes from exams that occurred after enrolment and waiting periods make note of the date of the exam, that the exam occurred post-policy, and continue with the entry as normal.

7.)

OBSERVATION DROP DOWN OPTIONS. There are 4 different drop downs, each with different options.

TYPE defines the type of observation you have entered as subjective or objective.

OCCURANCE labels an observation as whether it is the first time it has been noted, an ongoing note of the original observation, or a repeat observation but separate occurrence.

SIGNIFICANCE defines the observation as ranging from low (a condition not likely to increase In severity) to high (a condition that is severe and may need to be flagged).

RELATIONSHIP denotes if the observation is unrelated to other conditions that the pet may suffer from (single), if it has occurred because of the pet’s other conditions (compounded), or if it could be both.

8.)	DIAGNOSIS OBSERVATIONS. These entries are reserved for observations found in the pet’s medical records as a diagnosis (ex. Blood work results).

9.)	DIAGNOSIS DROP DOWN OPTIONS. There are 4 different drop downs, each with different options.

TYPE differentiates between the diagnosis being causative, symptomatic, therapeutic, or definitive.

OCCURANCE labels an observation as whether It is the first time it has been noted, an ongoing note of the original observation, or a repeat observation but separate occurrence.

SIGNIFICANCE defines the observation as ranging from low (a condition not likely to increase In severity) to high (a condition that is severe and may need to be flagged).

SOAP Examples...

Fido is a male dog born in August of 2006. His owner’s have enrolled him with Vetinsurance at 6 months of age on February 17^th of 2007. The following is an example of Fido’s SOAPed medical records.


FIRST EXAM OBSERVATIONS: 10/06/2006 – First Exam – Wax in ears, otherwise healthy puppy.

Type: Objective.	Significance: Low.	Occurrence: Single.	Relationship: Single.
OBSERVATIONS: 10/30/2006 – Puppy scratching at ears, possible otitis, swab taken.

Type: Objective.	Significance: Low.	Occurrence: Ongoing.	Relationship: Single.
DIAGNOSIS: 10/31/2006 – Results from swab taken 10/30/2007: Yeast otitis externa.

Type: Definitive.	Significance: Low.	Occurrence: Single.	Relationship: Single.
OBSERVATIONS: 11/21/2006 – Otitis has resolved, still some wax in ears.

Type: Objective.	Significance: Low.	Occurrence: Single.	Relationship: Single.
OBSERVATIONS: 02/15/2007 – Neuter under 1 year of age. Deciduous canine teeth extracted.

Type: Objective.	Significance: Low.	Occurrence: Single.	Relationship: Single.
OBSERVATIONS: 02/20/2007 – Within 5- And 30-Day Waiting Periods – Neuter incision irritated, red and weeping. Infected.

Type: Objective.	Significance: Low.	Occurrence: Single.	Relationship: Single.
OBSERVATIONS: 02/28/2007 – Within 30-Day Waiting Period – Ears bothering dog again, repeat of otitis externa. Both eyes slightly red, conjunctivitis. Possible allergies?

Type: Objective.	Significance: Low.	Occurrence: Repeat	Relationship: Compounded.
OBSERVATIONS: 03/30/2007 – Post-Policy – Dog is limping, cut foot pad. Ears and eyes inflamed and red, allergies.

Type: Objective.	Significance: Low.	Occurrence: Single.	Relationship: Compounded.

Definitions…

SUBJECTIVE – An opinion based on an observation. Ex. Lethargy, not well, shedding.

OBJECTIVE – A factual observation. Ex. Non-weight bearing lameness of the right hind leg, temperature, respiration, heart rate.

CAUSATIVE – A diagnosis based on symptoms consistent with found etiology. Ex. Diarrhea’s causative agent is Giardia.

SYMPTOMATIC – A diagnosis based on symptoms. Ex. Common symptoms of allergies are otitis, conjunctivitis, itchy skin, etc.

THERAPEUTIC – A diagnosis based on the response to treatment. Ex. Diarrhea is resolved with deworming medication, diagnosis is worms.

DEFINITIVE – A diagnosis based on factual observation(s). Ex, Dog’s femur broken and protruding through skin, diagnosed broken femur.

We have been asked to generate a more uniform SOAP model to align with development targets to improve claims processing at a future date.

Currently the SOAPing we are doing is fine, it now needs to be more uniform In order for data collection and program developments to occur.

New headings to be used for observations as well as separating unrelated symptoms noted on the same visit into their own observation.

From December 1^st forward please use the following:

New headings for Observations are:

Misc, First Exam, Vaccines, Neuter/Spay, 5dayWP, WP.

Separate entry per Issue: ‘Presenting complaint’-

Misc:

This is where one will put the information that is not part of the actual exam but is important for context. This usually happens most on the first exam but the label can be used when ever needed; for example,

Misc: O stepped on RF foot 3 days prior was limping now fine.

First Exam:

For the initial exam of the pet’s medical records one will enter “First Exam:” followed by findings relevant to that exam.

First Exam: Otitis externa, (symptoms of otitis if noted) otherwise healthy.

Additional findings that are involved on the first exam but are not pertaining to that exam, will be noted under “Misc:” as a separate observation.

Misc: First Exam: Had diarrhea on adoption date, 3 days ago.

Misc: First Exam: Dog was adopted 3 days ago and had vaccines at breeders. Dewormer given.

Vaccines:

For every exam where vaccines take place a separate entry is to be made. Please note any vaccine separately should you feel it is important to your claims processing.

Example,

Vaccines: Yearly booster and rabies.

Vaccines: 2^nd booster, including Bordatella

Spay/Neuter:

On the spay/neuter date label the entry as such followed by if the pet is over or under 1 year of age.

Example,

Neuter: > 1 year or Neuter: Over age of 1 year

Spay: < 1 year or Spay: at less than 1 year

5 Day WP:

For the exams that occur within the 5-day accident waiting period and ARE regarding an accident. the entry will be labelled as above and followed by relevant findings.

Example,

5 Day WP: Fell out of truck, broken leg

If the accident within the 5 days is also the First exam, use the following.

5 Day WP: First Exam: fell down stairs, broken leg, otherwise healthy.

WP:

For exams that occur within the 30-day waiting period and are an illness or an accident the entry will be labelled as “WP:” and followed by relevant findings.

Example,

WP: Vomiting and diarrhea, (symptoms pertaining)

Example if first exam falls with in this time frame,

WP: First Exam: Otitis Externa, otherwise healthy.

Separating out Observations from the same exam date:

For each unrelated condition noted during an exam, a separate entry is required.

‘Presenting Complaint’-

On all examinations that do not fall into the categories above, begin the entry with a word or phrase that illustrates why ‘fluffy’ is at the vet.

Examples;

Scratching ears- Yeast otitis, left ear.

Diarrhea- notation of symptoms

Limping- non wt bearing left hind for 5 days.

Vomiting and Diarrhea-

Check eyes
