rescued from a peril insured against that would otherwise have caused a
loss, if, in the course of such rescue, the thing is exposed to a peril
not insured against, which permanently deprives the insured of its
possession, in whole or in part; or where a loss is caused by efforts to
rescue the thing insured from a peril insured against.
