The maker of a line of toys featuring Thomas and Friends was insured by Ace American Insurance. The toy maker was sued in class action suits in the United States because of a recall of its toys for containing lead-based paint. The toys were made, painted, and tested in China. The insurance policy had a “coverage territory” exclusion which barred coverage of “occurrences” of bodily injury or property damage taking place in the United States. The defendants argued that the injuries took place in the United States, where they were exposed to the lead paint, not where the toys were manufactured and tested. Should the court interpret the policy to make the insurer defend the lawsuits? Why?
