The Bonds are exempt from personal property tax in Pennsylvania and the interest on the Bonds is exempt from Pennsylvania corporate net income tax and from Pennsylvania personal income tax (See “Tax Matters” herein).

  • Present: All the Justices PMA CAPITAL INSURANCE COMPANY
    Present: All the Justices PMA CAPITAL INSURANCE COMPANY v. Record No. 051179 OPINION BY JUSTICE DONALD W. LEMONS March 3, 2006 US AIRWAYS, INC., ET AL. FROM THE CIRCUIT COURT OF ARLINGTON COUNTY Joanne F. Alper, Judge This appeal involves a claim for compensation for business interruption losses arising from the September 11, 2001 terrorist attack on the United States of America. In this appeal, we consider whether the trial court correctly interpreted and applied the provisions of an insurance contract. For the reasons discussed below, the judgment of the trial court will be reversed. I. Facts and Proceedings Below US Airways, Inc., Allegheny Airlines, Inc., Piedmont Airlines, Inc., PSA Airlines, Inc., and MidAtlantic Airways, Inc., ("US Airways") entered into an "All Risk Manuscript Property Policy" ("Policy") subscription insurance contract with six insurance providers. The Policy provided commercial property coverage in the amount of twenty-five million dollars ($25,000,000.00) from December 1, 2000, through December 1, 2001. The six insurance providers provided varying percentage amounts of coverage and, of the six, only one, PMA Capital Insurance Company ("PMA"), is involved in the present appeal. PMA is the successor in interest to one of the original subscribers, Caliber One Indemnity Company, which underwrote 10% of the twenty-five million dollars in coverage. On the morning of September 11, 2001, terrorists hijacked several commercial aircraft flying within the airspace of the United States. Shortly after two of the aircraft were crashed into the World Trade Center in New York City, the Federal Aviation Administration (“FAA”) issued a “Notice to Airmen” (“NOTAM” or "ground stop order") ordering all civilian aircraft to land or stay on the ground.
