President of the Senate

State House

Annapolis, Maryland 21401

Dear Mr. President:

In accordance with Article II, Section 17 of the Maryland Constitution, I have today
vetoed Senate Bill 362.

This bill clarifies the insurance coverage limits that a nonprofit association or
organization and their agents is required to carry. The insured must select a coverage that
provides a minimum of $750,000 in claims per policy year and $500,000 total claims per
occurrence.

House Bill 434, which was passed by the General Assembly and signed by me on May 2,
1994, accomplishes the same purpose. Therefore, it is not necessary for me to sign Senate
Bill 362.

Sincerely,

William Donald Schaefer

Governor
