All interest on the full amount of any judgment that accrues after entry of the judgment and before we have paid, of- fered to pay, or deposited in court the part of the judgment that is within the applicable limit of insurance. These payments will not reduce the limits of insurance. 2. If we defend an insured against a "suit" and an indemnitee of the insured is also named as a party to the "suit', we will defend that indemnitee if all of the following conditions are met a. The "suit' against the indemnitee seeks damages for which the insured has as- sumed the liability of the indemnitee in a contract or agreement that is an "in- sured contract; b. This insurance applies to such liability assumed by the insured; c. The obligation to defend, or the cost of the defense of, that lndemnitee, has also been assumed by the insured in the same "insured contract"; d. The allegations in the "suit" and the in- formation we know about the "occur- rence" are such that no conflict appears to exist between the interests of the insured and the interests of the indem- nitee; e. The indemnitee and the insured ask us to conduct and control the defense of that indemnitee against such "suit" and agree that we can assign the same counsel to defend the insured and the indemnitee; and f. The indemnitee: (1) Agrees in writing to: (a) Cooperate with us in the inves- tigation, settlement or defense of the "suit"; b) Immediately send us copies of any demands, notices, sum- monses or legal papers received in connection with the "suit'; (c) Notify any other insurer whose coverage is available to the in- demnitee; and (d) Cooperate with us with respect to coordinating other applicable insurance available to the indem- nitee; and 9S2001 Ed. 4-99 (2) Provides us with written authoriza- tion to: (a) Obtain records and other infor- mation related to the "suit'; and (b) Conduct and control the defense of the indemnitee in such "suit". So long as the above conditions are met, attorneys' fees incurred by us in the de- fense of that indemnitee, necessary litiga- tion expenses incurred by us and necessary litigation expenses incurred by the indemni- tee at our request will be paid as Supple- mentary Payments. Notwithstanding the pro- visions of Paragraph 2.b.(2) of SECTION 1 - COVERAGE A - BODILY INJURY AND PROP - ERTYDAMAGE UABLflY, such payments will not be deemed to be damages for "bodily injury" and "property damage" and will not reduce the limits of insurance. Our obligation to defend an insured's indem- nitee and to pay for attorneys' fees and nec- essary litigation expenses as Supplemen- tary Payments ends when: a. We have used up the applicable limit of insurance in the payment of judgments or settlements; or b. The conditions set forth above, or the terms of the agreement described in Paragraph f. above, are no longer met SECTION II - WHO IS AN INSURED 1. If you are designated in the Declarations as a.

Bankruptcy Bankruptcy or insolvency of the insured or of the insured's estate will not relieve us of our obligations under this Coverage Part 2. Duties In The Event Of Occurrence, Offense, Claim Or Suit a. You must see to it that we are notified as soon as practicable of an "occur- rence" or an offense which may result in a claim. To the extent possible, notice should include: (1) How, when and where the "occur- rence" or "offense" took place; (2) The names and addresses of any in- jured persons and witnesses; and (3) The nature and location of any injury or damage arising out of the "oc- currence" or offense. b. If a claim is made or "suit" is brought against any insured, you must: (1) Immediately record the specifics of the claim or "suit" and the date re- ceived and (2) Notify us as soon as practicable. You must see to it that we receive writ- ten notice of the claim or "suit" as soon as practicable. c.

No insured will, except at that insured's own cost, voluntarily make a payment, assume any obligation, or incur any ex- pense, other than for first aid, without our consent e. Knowledge of "occurrence", claim or "suit" by an agent, servant or "employee" of an insured (other than an officer or partner) does not imply knowledge by the insured unless the insured has re- ceived notice from the agent, servant or "employee". f. Failure by an agent, servant or "employee" of an insured (other than an "executive officer", manager or partner) to notify us of an "occurrence" will not be con- sidered an failure to comply with para- graphs a. and b. above. 3. Legal Action Against Us No person or organization has a right under this Coverage Part a. To join us as a party or otherwise bring us into a "suit" asking for damages from an insured; or b. To sue us on this Coverage Part unless all of its terms have been fully complied with. A person or organization may sue us to re- cover on an agreed settlement or on a final judgment against an insured obtained after an actual trial; but we will not be liable for damages that are not payable under the terms of this Coverage Part or that are in excess of the applicable limit of insurance. An agreed settlement means a settlement and release of liability signed by us, the insured and the claimant or the claimant's legal representa- tive. 4.

We will provide any liability, uninsured motorists, underinsured motorists, no- fault or other coverages required by any motor vehicle insurance law. We will provide the required limits for those coverages. 5. Other Insurance If other valid and collectible insurance is avail- able to the insured for a loss we cover under Coverages A or B of this Coverage Part, our obligations are limited as follows: a. Primary Insurance This insurance is primary except when b. below applies. If this insurance is pri- mary, 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. b. Excess Insurance This insurance is excess over. (1) 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 insures for direct physical loss to premises rented to you or temporarily occupied by you with permission of the owner; (c) That is insurance purchased by you to cover your liability as a tenant for "property damage" to premises rented to you or tem- porarily occupied by you with permission of the owner; or (d) If the loss arises out of the main- tenance or use of aircraft, "au- tos" or watercraft to the extent not subject to Exclusion g. of 9S2001 Ed. 4-99 SECTION I - COVERAGE A - BODL.Y INJURY AND PROPERTY DAMAGE UABLITY. (2) Any other primary insurance avail- able to you covering liability for dam- ages arising out of the premises or operations for which you have been added as an additional insured by attachment of an endorsement When this insurance is excess, we will have no duty under Coverages A or B to defend the insured against any claim or "suit' if any other insurer has a duty to defend the insured against that claim or "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. When this insurance is excess over other insurance, we will pay only our share of the amount of the loss, if any, that ex- ceeds the sum of: (1) The total amount that all such other insurance would pay for the loss in the absence of this insurance; and (2) 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 de- scribed in this Excess Insurance provi- sion and was not bought specifically to apply in excess of the Limits of Insur- ance shown in the Declarations of this Coverage Part c. Method Of Sharing If all of the other insurance permits con- tribution 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 in- surance 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 in- surance to the total applicable limits of insurance of all insurers. 6.

Transfer Of Rights Of Recovery Against Others To Us If the insured has rights to recover all or part of any payment we have made under this Coverage Part, those rights are trans- ferred to us.

Unintentional Errors And Omissions Any unintentional error or omission in the description of, or failure to completely describe, any premises or operations in- tended to be covered by this Coverage Part 9S2001 Ed. 4-99 will not invalidate or affect coverage for those premises or operations.
