ADDITIONAL COVERAGES BY WRITTEN CONTRACT, AGREEMENT OR PERMIT This is a summary of the coverage provided under the following form (complete form available):
BUSINESS LIABILITY COVERAGE FORM SS 00 08 04 05
Additional Insured When Required by Written Contract, Written Agreement or Permit WHO IS AN INSURED under Section C. is amended to include as an additional insured, but only with respect to liability for "bodily injury", "property damage" or "personal and advertising injury" caused, in whole or in part, by your acts or omissions or the acts or omissions of those acting on your behalf:
(a) In the performance of your ongoing operations;
(b) In connection with your premises owned by or rented to you; or (c) In connection with "your work" and included within the "products completed operations hazard", but only if
(i) The written contract or written agreement requires you to provide such coverage to such additional insured; and
(ii) This Coverage Part provides coverage for "bodily injury" or "property damage" included within the "products completed operations hazard".
The person(s) or organization(s) are additional insureds when you have agreed, in a written contract, written agreement or because of a permit issued by a state or political subdivision, that such person or organization be added as an additional insured on your policy, provided the injury or damage occurs subsequent to the execution of the contract or agreement, or the issuance of the permit.
A person or organization is an additional insured under the provision only for that period of time required by the contract, agreement or permit.
With respect to the insurance afforded to the additional insured, this insurance does not apply to: "Bodily injury", "property damage" or "personal and advertising injury" arising out of the rendering of, or failure to render, any professional architectural, engineering or surveying services, including:
(a) The preparing, approving, or failure to prepare or approve, maps, shop drawings, opinions, reports, surveys, field orders, change orders, designs or drawings and specification: or (b) Supervisory, inspection, architectural or engineering activities.
The limits of insurance that apply to additional insureds are described in Section D. Limits Of Insurance.
How this insurance applies when other insurance is available to an additional insured is described in the Other Insurance Condition in Section E. Liability And Medical Expenses General Conditions.
No person or organization is an insured with respect to the conduct of any current or past partnership, joint venture or limited liability company that is not shown as a Named Insured in the Declarations.
Other Insurance
If other valid and collectible insurance is available for a loss we cover under this Coverage Part, our obligations are limited as follows:
When You Add Others As An Additional Insured To This Insurance: That is other insurance available to an additional insured. However, the following provisions apply to other insurance available to any person or organization who is an additional insured under th,s Coverage Part:
(a) Primary Insurance When Required By Contract: This insurance is primary if you have agreed in a written contract, written agreement or permit that this insurance be primary. If other insurance is also primary, we will share with all that other insurance by the method described in c. below.
(b) Primary And Non -Contributory To Other Insurance When Required By Contract: If you have agreed in a written contract, written agreement or permit that this insurance is primary and non-contributory with the additional insured's own insurance, this insurance is primary and we will not seek contribution from that other insurance.
Rev 5 14 Page 1 of 2
BUSINESS LIABILITY COVERAGE FORM Summary SS 00 38 04 3
Paragraphs (a) and (b) do not apply to other insurance to which the additional insured has been added as an additional insured.
c. Method Of Sharing
If all the other insurance permits contribution by equal shares, we will follow this method also. Under this approach, each insurer contributes equal amounts until it has paid its applicable limit of insurance or none of the loss remains, whichever comes first.
If any of the other insurance does not permit contribution by equal shares, we will contribute by limits. Under this method, each insurer's share is based on the ratio of its applicable limit of insurance to the total applicable limits of insurance of all insurers.
Waiver of Subrogation
If you have waived any rights of recovery against any person or organization for all or part of any payment, including Supplementary Payments, we have made under this Coverage Part, we also waive that right, provided you waived your rights of recovery against such person or organization in a contract, agreement or permit that was executed prior to the injury or damage
