A statement on the insurance c ertificate which states that the insurance company "will endeavor" to notify the certificate holder, "but failure to mail such notice shall impose no obligation or liability to any kind upon the company, its agents or representatives" does not satisfy the requirement of subsection (e) herein. Subr ecipient shall ensure that the authorized representative of the insurance company strikes the above quoted language from the certificate. The insurance certificate shall also state the unpaid limits of the policy.

Subrecipient shall provide a substitute certificate of insuranc e no later than ten (10) days prior to the policy expiration date.

Maintenance of insurance by Subrecipient as specified in this A greement shall in no way be interpreted as relieving Subrecipient of any responsibility wha tever, and Subrecipient may carry, at its own expense, such additional insurance as Subrecipient deems necessary.

In lieu of providing proof of insurance as required by Section 9(A) through (G) herein above, Subrecipient may provide a letter of insurance to City which re presents and warrants to City that Subrecipient is lawfully self-insured with respect to the liabi lities which it may incur in the performance of th is Agreement and that, to the best of Subrecipient’s knowledge, Subrecipient will be in a financial position to meet such potential liabilities when they occur.

b. Religious Organizations: 24 CFR Part 5 Section 109(d)(2) states a religious organization that receives ESG funds will retain its independence from Federal, State, and local governments, and may continue to carry out its mission, i ncluding the definition, practice, and expression of its beliefs, provided that it does not use direct ESG funds to support any inherently religious activities, such as worship, r eligious instruction, or proselytization. Among other things, Faith-based organizations may use space in their facilities to provide ESG -funded services without removing religious art, icon, scriptures, or other religious symbols.
