Tax audit. This can cover the professional fees associated with hiring an accountant to assist you if you are audited.
Equine and stud stock. This can cover you if your stock dies by accident, illness or disease.
Personal accident. If you hurt yourself and need to take time off working, this can compensate you for the lost income.
