    12. Your insurer and the liability clause

      Atlas Insurance PCC Ltd (C5601) is a company incorporated under Maltese law with its registered office at 47-50 Ta ’Xbiex Seafront, Ta’ Xbiex XBX 1021, Malta. Atlas Insurance PCC is authorised by the Maltese Financial Services Authority, Notabile Road, Attard BKR 3000, Malta, Tel.: +356 2144 1155, https://www.mfsa.com.mt/. Atlas Insurance PCC Limited is deemed to be authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority. The nature and extent of consumer protections may differ from those for firms based in the UK. Details of the Temporary Permissions Regime, which allows EEA-based firms to operate in the UK for a limited period while seeking full authorisation, are available on the Financial Conduct Authority’s website.

      For this Extended Warranty, Atlas acts in respect of its Gemini Cell, a protected cell that was established within the applicable Protected Cell Company regulations and is owned by Aftersales Group BV. Atlas Insurance PCC Ltd is established at 47-50 Ta’ Xbiex Seafront, Ta’ Xbiex XBX 1021, Malta.

      Atlas can create one or more protected cells for the purpose of separating and protecting cellular assets (capital). The assets of the Gemini Cell are then protected against the liabilities and losses of the other Atlas cells and those of Atlas’s core business itself. By accepting these terms and conditions You agree:

      1. that You are only entitled to make a claim under this Extended Warranty; and
      2. that Your rights and claims arising from this policy are primarily settled from the assets of Gemini Cell that are available for settlement of claims when Your claim to Atlas Gemini is registered; and
      3. that only when Gemini Cell’s assets have been exhausted, Atlas non-cellular assets will be used to meet any of Gemini Cell’s liabilities; and
      4. that a claim cannot be made on the assets of another of Atlas’s protected Cells.

      In this way, the capital of Your Insurer, Atlas Gemini, is protected at all times against possible shortfalls in the core activities of Atlas or at one of the other protected cells. Conversely, in the unlikely event of a shortfall at Atlas Gemini, continuity is secondarily guaranteed by the Atlas non-cellular assets.

      By entering into this Extended Warranty, You acknowledge and agree that this Extended Warranty is being entered into with Atlas Gemini and that You are aware of the provisions of the PCC Regulations, which apply to Atlas Insurance PCC Limited and Gemini Cell.

      You further accept and agree that this clause of the terms and conditions is to be governed and construed in accordance with Maltese law and that any disputes in connection therewith are to be submitted to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Maltese Courts. You warrant that, under applicable law, you are permitted to choose such law and forum to govern this clause of the Extended Warranty. Your agreement to have this clause governed by Maltese law and subject to the jurisdiction of the Maltese Courts and Your representation that it is permitted under applicable law to choose such law to govern this clause is a material reason why Atlas Gemini has agreed to enter into this Extended Warranty
