(1) a provision that, in the absence of fraud, all statements made by applicants or the policyholder or by an insured person shall be considered representations and not warranties, and that a statement made for the purpose of effecting insurance may not void the insurance or reduce benefits unless contained in a written instrument signed by the policyholder or the insured person, a copy of which has been furnished to the policyholder or to the insured person or the beneficiary of the insured person;
(2) a provision that the insurer will furnish to the policyholder for delivery to each employee or member of the insured group, a statement in summary form of the essential features of the insurance coverage of the employee or member and to whom benefits are payable; if dependents are included in the coverage, only one certificate need be issued for each family unit;
