The following is added to SECTION II – WHO IS
AN INSURED:

Additional Insured by Contract, Agreement or
Permit
a. Any person or organization with whom you
agreed in a written contract, written agreement
or permit that such person or organization to
add an additional insured on your policy is an
additional insured 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

behalf, but only with respect to:

(3) Your maintenance, operation or use of

agreement or permit to provide for such
additional insured.

Policy Number: ZDFA49104911
421-2915 06 15 Includes copyrighted material of Insurance Services Office, Inc., with its permission. Page 2 of 4 (3) Applies on a primary basis if that is
required by the written contract, written
agreement or permit.
(4) Will not be broader than coverage
provided to any other insured.
(5) Does not apply if the “bodily injury”,
“property damage” or “personal and
advertising injury” is otherwise excluded
from coverage under this Coverage Part,
including any endorsements thereto.
c. This provision does not apply:
(1) Unless the written contract or written
agreement was executed or permit was
issued prior to the "bodily injury”, “property
damage", or "personal injury and
advertising injury".
(2) To any person or organization included as
an insured by another endorsement
issued by us and made part of this
Coverage Part.
(3) To any lessor of equipment:
(a) After the equipment lease expires; or
(b) If the “bodily injury”, “property
damage”, “personal and advertising
injury” arises out of sole negligence of
the lessor
(4) To any:
(a) Owners or other interests from. whom
land has been leased which takes
place after the lease for the land expires; or
(b) Managers or lessors of premises if:
(i) The occurrence takes place after
you cease to be a tenant in that
premises; or
(ii) The "bodily injury", "property
damage", "personal injury" or
"advertising injury" arises out of
structural alterations, new construction or demolition operations performed by or on behalf of the
manager or lessor.
(5) To “bodily injury”, “property damage” or
“personal and advertising injury” arising
out of the rendering of or the failure to
render any professional services.

This exclusion applies even if the claims
against any insured allege negligence or
other wrongdoing in the supervision,
hiring, employment, training or monitoring
of others by that insured, if the
“occurrence” which caused the “bodily
injury” or “property damage” or the offense
which caused the “personal and
advertising injury” involved the rendering
of or failure to render any professional
services by or for you.
d. With respect to the insurance afforded to
these additional insureds, the following is
added to SECTION III – LIMITS OF
INSURANCE:

The most we will pay on behalf of the
additional insured for a covered claim is the
lesser of the amount of insurance:

1. Required by the contract, agreement or
permit described in Paragraph a.; or

2. Available under the applicable Limits of
Insurance shown in the Declarations.

This endorsement shall not increase the
applicable Limits of Insurance shown in the
Declarations.

2. Additional Insured – Primary and NonContributory
The following is added to SECTION IV –

COMMERCIAL GENERAL LIABILITY
CONDITIONS, Paragraph 4. Other insurance:

Additional Insured – Primary and NonContributory
If you agree in a written contract, written
agreement or permit that the insurance provided to
any person or organization included as an
Additional Insured under SECTION II – WHO IS
AN INSURED, is primary and non-contributory,
the following applies:

If other valid and collectible insurance is available
to the Additional Insured for a loss covered under
Coverages A or B of this Coverage Part, our
obligations are limited as follows:
a. Primary Insurance
This insurance is primary to other insurance
that is available to the Additional Insured
which covers the
Additional Insured as a Named Insured. We
will not seek contribution from any other
insurance available to the Additional Insured
except:
(1) For the sole negligence of the Additional
Insured;
(2) When the Additional Insured is an
Additional Insured under another primary
liability policy; or
(3) when b. below applies.

If this insurance is primary, our obligations are
not affected unless any of the other insurance
is also primary. Then, we will share with all
that other insurance by the method described
in c. below.
421-2915 06 15 Includes copyrighted material of Insurance Services Office, Inc., with its permission. Page 3 of 4 b. Excess Insurance
(1) This insurance is excess over any of the
other insurance, whether primary, excess,
contingent or on any other basis:
(a) That is Fire, Extended Coverage,
Builder's Risk, Installation Risk or
similar coverage for "your work";
(b) That is Fire insurance for premises
rented to the Additional Insured or
temporarily occupied by the Additional
Insured with permission of the owner;
(c) That is insurance purchased by the
Additional Insured to cover the
Additional Insured’s liability as a
tenant for "property damage" to
premises rented to the Additional
Insured or temporarily occupied by the
Additional with permission of the
owner; or
(d) If the loss arises out of the
maintenance or use of aircraft, "autos"
or watercraft to the extent not subject
to Exclusion g. of SECTION I –
COVERAGE A – BODILY INURY

AND PROPERTY DAMAGE
LIABILITY.
(2) When this insurance is excess, we will
have no duty under Coverages A or B to
defend the insured against any "suit" if any
other insurer has a duty to defend the
insured against that "suit". If no other
insurer defends, we will undertake to do
so, but we will be entitled to the insured's
rights against all those other insurers.
(3) When this insurance is excess over other
Insurance, we will pay only our share of
the amount of the loss, if any, that
exceeds the sum of:
(a) The total amount that all such other
insurance would pay for the loss in the
absence of this insurance; and
(b) The total of all deductible and self
insured amounts under all that other
insurance.

We will share the remaining loss, if any,
with any other insurance that is not
described in this Excess Insurance
provision and was not bought specifically
to apply in excess of the Limits of
Insurance shown in the Declarations of
this Coverage Part.
c. Method Of Sharing
If all of 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

3. Blanket Waiver of Subrogation
The following is added to SECTION IV –

COMMERCIAL GENERAL LIABILITY
CONDITIONS, Paragraph 8. Transfer Of Rights
Of Recovery Against Others To Us:

We waive any right of recovery we may have
against any person or organization with whom you
have a written contract that requires such waiver
because of payments we make for damage under
this coverage form. The damage must arise out of
your activities under a written contract with that
person or organization. This waiver applies only to
the extent that subrogation is waived under a
written contract executed prior to the “occurrence”
or offense giving rise to such payments.

injury” is replaced by the following:

(4) Discovery of willful or grossly negligent
acts or omissions, or of any violations of
state laws or regulations establishing
safety standards, by you or your

against.
(5) Failure by you or your representative to
implement reasonable loss control
requirements, agreed to by you as a

(6) A determination by the Commissioner of
Insurance that the:
(a) Loss of, or changes in, our
reinsurance covering all or part of
the risk would threaten our financial
integrity or solvency; or
(b) Continuation of the policy coverage
would:
(i) Place us in violation of California
law or the laws of the state where
we are domiciled; or
(ii) Threaten our solvency.

Page 2 of 4 ends

B. The following provision is added to the
Cancellation Common Policy Condition:

7. Residential Property
This provision applies to coverage on real
property which is used predominantly for
residential purposes and consisting of not more
than four dwelling units, and to coverage on
tenants' household personal property in a
residential unit, if such coverage is written
under one of the following:

Commercial Property Coverage Part
Farm Coverage Part – Farm Property – Farm
Dwellings, Appurtenant Structures And
Household Personal Property Coverage Form
a. If such coverage has been in effect for 60
days or less, and is not a renewal of
coverage we previously issued, we may
cancel this coverage for any reason, except
as provided in b. and c. below.
b. We may not cancel this policy solely
because the first Named Insured has:
(1) Accepted an offer of earthquake
coverage; or
(2) Cancelled or did not renew a policy
issued by the California Earthquake
Authority (CEA) that included an
earthquake policy premium surcharge.

However, we shall cancel this policy if the
first Named Insured has accepted a new or
renewal policy issued by the CEA that
includes an earthquake policy premium
surcharge but fails to pay the earthquake
policy premium surcharge authorized by the
CEA.
c. We may not cancel such coverage solely
because corrosive soil conditions exist on
the premises. This restriction (c.) applies
only if coverage is subject to one of the
following, which exclude loss or damage
caused by or resulting from corrosive soil
conditions:

Causes Of Loss – Special Form; or
(2) Farm Coverage Part – Causes Of Loss
Form – Farm Property, Paragraph D.

Covered Causes Of Loss – Special.

IL 02 70 09 12 © Insurance Services Office, Inc., 2012
C. The following is added and supersedes any
provisions to the contrary:

Nonrenewal

1. Subject to the provisions of Paragraphs C.2.
and C.3. below, if we elect not to renew this
policy, we will mail or deliver written notice,
stating the reason for nonrenewal, to the first
Named Insured shown in the Declarations, and
to the producer of record, at least 60 days, but
not more than 120 days, before the expiration
or anniversary date.

We will mail or deliver our notice to the first
Named Insured, and to the producer of record,
at the mailing address shown in the policy.

2. Residential Property
This provision applies to coverage on real
property used predominantly for residential
purposes and consisting of not more than four
dwelling units, and to coverage on tenants'
household property contained in a residential
unit, if such coverage is written under one of
the following:

Commercial Property Coverage Part
Farm Coverage Part – Farm Property – Farm
Dwellings, Appurtenant Structures And
Household Personal Property Coverage Form
a. We may elect not to renew such coverage
for any reason, except as provided in b., c.
and d. below.
b. We will not refuse to renew such coverage
solely because the first Named Insured has
accepted an offer of earthquake coverage.

However, the following applies only to
insurers who are associate participating
insurers as established by Cal. Ins. Code
Section 10089.16. We may elect not to
renew such coverage after the first Named
Insured has accepted an offer of
earthquake coverage, if one or more of the
following reasons applies:
(1) The nonrenewal is based on sound
underwriting principles that relate to the
coverages provided by this policy and
that are consistent with the approved
rating plan and related documents filed
with the Department of Insurance as
required by existing law;
(2) The Commissioner of Insurance finds
that the exposure to potential losses will
threaten our solvency or place us in a
hazardous condition. A hazardous
condition includes, but is not limited to, a
condition in which we make claims
payments for losses resulting from an
earthquake that occurred within the
preceding two years and that required a
reduction in policyholder surplus of at
least 25% for payment of those claims;
or
(3) We have:
(a) Lost or experienced a substantial
reduction in the availability or scope
of reinsurance coverage; or
(b) Experienced a substantial increase
in the premium charged for
reinsurance coverage of our
residential property insurance
policies; and
the Commissioner has approved a plan
for the nonrenewals that is fair and
equitable, and that is responsive to the
changes in our reinsurance position.
c. We will not refuse to renew such coverage
solely because the first Named Insured has
cancelled or did not renew a policy, issued
by the California Earthquake Authority, that
included an earthquake policy premium
surcharge.
d. We will not refuse to renew such coverage
solely because corrosive soil conditions
exist on the premises. This restriction (d.)
applies only if coverage is subject to one of
the following, which exclude loss or
damage caused by or resulting from
corrosive soil conditions:
(1) Commercial Property Coverage Part –
Causes Of Loss – Special Form; or
(2) Farm Coverage Part – Causes Of Loss
Form – Farm Property, Paragraph D.

Covered Causes Of Loss – Special.

3. We are not required to send notice of
nonrenewal in the following situations:
a. If the transfer or renewal of a policy, without
any changes in terms, conditions or rates,
is between us and a member of our
insurance group.

Page 3 of 4 ends

© Insurance Services Office, Inc., 2012 IL 02 70 09 12
b. If the policy has been extended for 90 days
or less, provided that notice has been given
in accordance with Paragraph C.1.
c. If you have obtained replacement coverage,
or if the first Named Insured has agreed, in
writing, within 60 days of the termination of
the policy, to obtain that coverage.
d. If the policy is for a period of no more than
60 days and you are notified at the time of
issuance that it will not be renewed.

Page 4 of 4 ends

e. If the first Named Insured requests a
change in the terms or conditions or risks
covered by the policy within 60 days of the
end of the policy period.
f. If we have made a written offer to the first
Named Insured, in accordance with the
timeframes shown in Paragraph C.1., to
renew the policy under changed terms or
conditions or at an increased premium rate,
when the increase exceeds 25%.
