This is a condominium policy. Normally the condo association covers the structure. The condo policy provides for coverage for the interior.
Loss assessment coverage provides protection against assessments made by a condo association because of losses to collectively owned property.
Coverage A and C can both be changed by endorsement to apply on an open-perils basis (best answer for exam).
HO-2 versus HO-3
The HO-2 is broad form for all coverages whereas the HO-3 is open perils for coverages A, B, and D.
The HO-3 is much more comprehensive.
HO-3 versus HO-5

Essentially, the HO-5 is the HO-3/15. The HO-15 endorsement changes the broad form for personal property under the HO-3 to open perils (same as the HO-5)
