EXHIBIT A
INSURANCE REQUIREMENTS FOR ATTORNEYS
Without limiting ATTORNEY’s indemnification obligations under this Agreement, ATTORNEY shall procure and maintain for the duration of the contract insurance against claims for injuries to persons or damages to property which may arise from or in connection with the performance of the work hereunder by the ATTORNEY, its agents, representatives, or employees.
Minimum Scope of Insurance
Unless otherwise approved by the Risk Manager, coverage shall be at least as broad as:
1. Insurance Services Office Commercial General Liability coverage (occurrence form CG 0001).
2. Insurance Services Office form number CA 0001 (Ed. 1/87) covering Automobile Liability, code 1 (any auto).
3. Workers’ Compensation insurance as required by the State of California.
4. Employer’s Liability Insurance.
5. Professional Liability Insurance shall be required if the ATTORNEY is providing a professional service regulated by the State (e.g., insurance agents, doctors, lawyers, architects, engineers, certified public accountants, etc.). However, some professions, such as software designers, claims administrators, or human resources professionals, should also carry Professional Liability insurance.
Minimum Limits of Insurance
Unless otherwise approved by the Risk Manager, ATTORNEY shall maintain limits no less than:
1. General Liability: $2,000,000 per occurrence for bodily injury, personal injury and property damage. The general aggregate limit shall apply separately to this project.
2. Automobile Liability: $1,000,000 per accident for bodily injury and property damage.
3. Employer’s Liability: $1,000,000 per accident for bodily injury or disease.
4. Professional Liability: Insurance appropriate to the ATTORNEY’s profession with a limit of not less than $2,000,000 each claim and $4,000,000 in the annual aggregate.
5. If the ATTORNEY maintains higher limits than the minimums shown above, the City of Redondo Beach requires and shall be entitled to coverage for the higher limits maintained by the ATTORNEY. Any available insurance proceeds in excess of the specified minimum limits of insurance and coverage shall be available to the City of Redondo Beach.
Deductibles and Self-Insured Retentions
Any deductibles or self-insured retentions must be declared to and approved by the City. At the option of the City, either: (1) the insurer shall reduce or eliminate such deductibles or self-insured retentions as respects the City, its officers, officials, employees and volunteers or (2) the ATTORNEY shall provide a financial guarantee satisfactory to the City guaranteeing payment of losses and related investigations, claim administration and defense expenses.
Other Insurance Provisions
Unless otherwise approved by the Risk Manager, the general liability and automobile liability policies are to contain, or be endorsed to contain, the following provisions:
Additional Insured Endorsement
1. General Liability: The City, its officers, elected and appointed officials, employees, and volunteers shall be covered as insureds with respect to liability arising out of work performed by or on behalf of the ATTORNEY. General liability coverage can be provided in the form of an endorsement to the ATTORNEY’s insurance, or as a separate owner’s policy.
2. Automobile Liability: The City, its officers, elected and appointed officials, employees, and volunteers shall be covered as insureds with respect to liability arising out of automobiles owned, leased, hired or borrowed by or on behalf of the ATTORNEY.
3. For any claims related to this project, the ATTORNEY’s insurance coverage shall be primary insurance as respects the City, its officers, elected and appointed officials, employees, and volunteers. Any insurance or self-insurance maintained by the City, its officers, officials, employees, or volunteers shall be excess of the ATTORNEY’s insurance and shall not contribute with it.
4. Each insurance policy shall be endorsed to state that the inclusion of more than one insured shall not operate to impair the rights of one insured against another insured, and the coverages afforded shall apply as though separate policies had been issued to each insured.
5. Each insurance policy shall be in effect prior to awarding the contract and each insurance policy or a successor policy shall be in effect for the duration of the project. The maintenance of proper insurance coverage is a material element of the contract and failure to maintain or renew coverage or to provide evidence of renewal may be treated by the City as a material breach of contract on the ATTORNEY’s part.
Acceptability of Insurers
Insurance shall be placed with insurers with a current A.M. Best’s rating of no less than A:VII and which are authorized to transact insurance business in the State of California by the Department of Insurance.
Claims Made Policies
Unless otherwise approved by the Risk Manager, if the Professional Liability policy provides “claims made” coverage:
1. The Retroactive Date must be shown, and must be before the date of this Agreement or the start of work.
2. The insurance must be maintained and evidence of insurance must be provided for at least 5 years after completion of work.
3. If the policy is cancelled or not renewed, and not replaced with another “claims made” policy form with a Retroactive Date prior to the effective Agreement date, the ATTORNEY must purchase “extended reporting” coverage for a minimum of 5 years after completion of work.
Verification of Coverage
ATTORNEY shall furnish the City with original certificates and amendatory endorsements effecting coverage required by this clause. The endorsements should be on the City authorized forms provided with the contract specifications. Standard ISO forms which shall be subject to City approval and amended to conform to the City’s requirements may be acceptable in lieu of City authorized forms. All certificates and endorsements shall be received and approved by the City before the contract is awarded. The City reserves the right to require complete, certified copies of all required insurance policies, including endorsements effecting the coverage required by these specifications at any time.
Subcontractors
ATTORNEY shall include all subcontractors as insured under its policies or shall furnish separate certificates and endorsements for each subcontractor. All coverages for subcontractors shall be subject to all of the requirements stated herein.
Risk Management
ATTORNEY acknowledges that insurance underwriting standards and practices are subject to change, and the City reserves the right to make changes to these provisions in the reasonable discretion of its Risk Manager or Human Resources Director.

those other insurers.

of:

amounts under all that other insurance. We will share the remaining loss, if any, by the method described in Other Insurance 5.d. 2. AUTOS RENTED BY EMPLOYEES Any "auto" hired or rented by your "employee" on
