EXHIBIT D
Consultant shall procure and maintain for the duration of the agreement, and for 5 years thereafter, insurance against claims for injuries to persons or damage to property which may arise from or in connection with the performance of the work hereunder by Consultant, its agents, representatives, employees, and sub-contractors. MINIMUM SCOPE AND LIMIT OF INSURANCE Coverage shall be at least as broad as: Commercial General Liability (CGL): Insurance Services Office Form CG 00 01 covering CGL on an “occurrence” basis, including products and completed operations, property damage, bodily injury and personal & advertising injury with limits no less than $3,000,000 per occurrence and $6,000,000 aggregate. Automobile Liability (AL): Insurance Services Office Form CA 00 01 covering Code 1 (any auto), with combined single limit no less than $1,000,000. Workers’ Compensation (WC): as required by the State of California, with statutory limits, and Employer’s Liability Insurance with limit of no less than $1,000,000 per accident, per employee, per policy for bodily injury or disease. Consultant attests that its workers’ compensation coverage extends to all persons who will be working wit the City under the agreed scope of services. Professional liability (Errors & Omissions (PL): with limits no less than $1,000,000 per occurrence or claim, and $2,000,000 aggregate. These requirements shall not in any way act to reduce coverage that is broader or includes higher limits than the minimums shown above. If Consultant maintains broader coverage and/or higher limits than the minimums shown above, City shall be entitled to the broader coverage and/or the higher limits maintained by Consultant. Insurance provided under this contract shall not contain any restrictions or limitations which are inconsistent with City’s rights under this contract. Other Insurance Provisions The insurance policies are to contain, or be endorsed to contain, the following provisions: 1. City of Santa Ana, its City Council, officers, officials, employees, agents, and volunteers are to be covered as additional insureds on Consultant’s CGL and AL policies with respect to liability arising out of work operations performed by or on behalf of the Consultant including materials, parts, equipment, and personnel furnished in connection with such work or operations and automobiles owned, leased, hired, or borrowed by or on behalf of Consultant. Additional insured status can be provided in the form of an endorsement to Consultant’s insurance. 2. For any claims related to this contract, Consultant’s insurance coverage shall be primary insurance coverage as respects City of Santa Ana, its City Council, officers, officials, employees, agents, or volunteers. Any insurance or self-insurance maintained by City, its City Council, officers, officials, employees, agents, or volunteers shall not contribute with it. 3. A severability of interest provision must apply for all the additional insureds, ensuring that Consultant’s insurance shall apply separately to each insured against whom a claim is made or suit is brought, except with respect to the insurer’s limits of liability. 4. Consultant hereby grants City a waiver of subrogation which any insurer of said Consultant may acquire against City, its City Council, officers, officials, employees, agents, and volunteers by virtue of the payment of any loss under Consultant’s CGL, AL, WC, and PL policies. Consultant agrees to obtain any endorsement(s) that may be necessary to affect this waiver of subrogation, but this provision applies regardless of whether City has received a waiver of subrogation endorsement from any insurer(s).. 5. Each insurance policy required herein shall provide that coverage shall not be canceled, suspended, voided, reduced in coverage or in limits, non-renewed by the carrier, or materially changed except after thirty (30) days prior written notice has been given to City and ten (10) days prior written notice shall be provided to City for policy cancellation or non-renewal due to non-payment. 6. Certificate Holder on each Evidence of Insurance certificate shall be: City of Santa Ana, Attention: Ricardo Perez, 20 Civic Center Plaza, M-36, Santa Ana, CA 92701. The name and location of the event should be included in the Description of Operations section of each certificate. Claims Made Policies If any of the required policies provide coverage on a claims-made basis: 1. The retroactive date must be shown and must be before the date of the contract or the beginning of work. 2. Insurance must be maintained and evidence of insurance must be provided for at least five (5) years after completion of work. 3. If coverage is canceled or non-renewed, and not replaced with another claims-made policy form with a retroactive date prior to the contract effective date, Consultant must purchase “extended reporting” coverage for a minimum of five (5) years after completion of work. 4. A copy of the claims reporting requirements must be submitted to City. Acceptability of Insurers Insurance is to be placed with insurers authorized to conduct business in the state of California with a current A.M. Best rating of no less than A:VII, unless otherwise acceptable to City. Self-Insured Retentions Self-insured retentions must be declared to and approved by the City. City may require Consultant to purchase coverage with a lower retention or provide proof of ability to pay losses and related investigations, claim administration, and defense expenses within the retention. Waiver of Subrogation Consultant hereby agrees to waive rights of subrogation which any insurer of Consultant may acquire from Consultant by virtue of the payment of any loss. Consultant agrees to obtain any endorsement that may be necessary to affect this waiver of subrogation. The Workers’ Compensation policy shall be endorsed with a waiver of subrogation in favor of City for all work performed by Consultant, its employees, agents, and sub-contractors. Verification of Coverage Consultant shall furnish City with original Certificates of Insurance including all required amendatory endorsements (or copies of the applicable policy language effecting coverage required by this clause) and a copy of the Declarations and Endorsement Page of the CGL policy listing all policy endorsements to Entity before work begins. However, failure to obtain the required documents prior to the work beginning shall not waive Consultant’s obligation to provide them. City reserves the right to require complete, certified copies of all required insurance policies, including endorsements required by these specifications, at any time. Subcontractors Consultant shall require and verify that all sub-contractors maintain insurance meeting all the requirements stated herein, and Consultant shall ensure that City is an additional insured on insurance required from sub-contractors. For CGL coverage, sub-contractors shall provide coverage with a form at least as broad as CG 20 38 04 13. Failure to Maintain Insurance Coverage If Consultant for any reason fails to maintain insurance coverage which is required pursuant to this contract, the same shall be deemed a material breach of contract. City may, at its sole option, terminate this contract at any time and obtain damages from Consultant resulting from said breach. Special Risks or Circumstances City reserves the right to modify these requirements, including limits, based on the nature of the risk, prior experience, insurer, coverage, or other special circumstances.
