In order to repair the damage and replace the workout equipment, the fitness center had to be closed for one month, which resulted in the loss of business income for the insured.

Medical Payments: A customer was exercising on a squat machine. The machine came off the ground and cut her leg. She incurred $3,000 in medical expenses.

The employee’s car was underinsured when they injured the other driver.
