property of others in any one accident; and

(2) loss or damage to an automobile insured under a policy, up to ten

thousand dollars actual cash value, subject to a deductible of not less

insurance for a private passenger automobile shall be subject to all of

the provisions of sections two thousand three hundred thirty-seven,

three thousand four hundred eleven and three thousand four hundred

thirty-two of this chapter; and

(3) medical payments with respect to private passenger motor vehicles

not for hire, irrespective of the legal liability of the insured,

because of bodily injury to or death of any person insured thereunder,

up to one thousand dollars; and

(4) supplementary uninsured motorists insurance, as defined in

(c) Such plan shall provide for the method of classifying risks,

establishing territories and making rates applicable thereto. Such

rates, except with respect to rates for the minimum limits of insurance

required by article six or seven of the vehicle and traffic law, shall

be based upon loss and expense experience of the risks insured pursuant

to the plan.
