The Insurance Court dismissed the policyholder's claim for an additional premium based on the insurer's failure to prove the policyholder's age at the time of policy issuance. The insurer argued that the policyholder was over the age limit when the contract was signed, while the policyholder contended that the age was unknown at that time. The court ruled that the burden of proof rested on the insurer, and without evidence establishing the policyholder's age at inception, the claim for additional premiums could not be sustained.

Insurance Act 1993, s. 10; Insurance Contract Act 1993, s. 13: The insurer bears the burden of proving the policyholder's age at the time of contract formation; failure to provide such evidence precludes the insurer from claiming additional premiums based on age-related exclusions.
