PLEASE READ IT CAREFULLY. BLANKET ADDITIONAL INSURED (ARCHITECTS, ENGINEERS AND SURVEYORS) This endorsement modifies insurance provided underthe following: COMMERCIAL GENERAL LIABILITY COVERAGE PART 1. The following is added to SECTION II.— WHO IS AN INSURED: Any person or organization that you agree in a "written contract requiring insurance" to include as an additional insured on this Coverage Part, but: a. Only with respect to liability for "bodily injury", "property damage" or "personal injury'; and b. If, and only to the extent that, the injury or damage is caused by acts or omissions of you or your subcontractor in the performance of "your work" to which the "written contract requiring insurance" applies, or in connection with premises owned by or rented to you. The person or organization does not qualify as an additional insured: c. With respect to the independent acts or omissions of such person or organization; or d. For "bodily injury", "property damage" or "personal injury" for which such person or organization has assumed liability in a contract or agreement. The insurance provided to such additional insured is limited as follows: e. This insurance does not apply on any basis to any person or organization for which coverage as an additional insured specifically is added by another endorsement to this Coverage Part. f. This insurance does not apply to the rendering of or failure to render any "professional services". g. In the event that the Limits of Insurance of the Coverage Part shown in the Declarations exceed the limits of liability required by the "written contract requiring insurance", the insurance provided to the additional insured shall be limited to the limits of liability required by that "written contract requiring insurance". This endorsement does not increase the limits of insurance described in Section III — Limits Of Insurance. h. This insurance does not apply to "bodily injury" or "property damage" caused by "your work" and included in the "products - completed operations hazard" unless the "written contract requiring insurance" specifically requires you to provide such coverage for that additional insured, and then the insurance provided to the additional insured applies only to such "bodily injury" or "property damage" that occurs before the end of the period of time for which the "written contract requiring insurance" requires you to provide such coverage or the end of the policy period, whichever is earlier. 2. The following is added to Paragraph 4.a. of SECTION IV — COMMERCIAL GENERAL LIABILITY CONDITIONS: The insurance provided to the additional insured is excess over any valid and collectible other insurance, whether primary, excess, contingent or on any other basis, that is available to the additional insured for a loss we cover. However, if you specifically agree in the "written contract requiring insurance" that this insurance provided to the additional insured under this Coverage Part must apply on a primary basis or a primary and non-contributory basis, this insurance is primary to other insurance available to the additional insured which covers that person or organizations as a named insured for such loss, and we will not share with the other insurance, provided that: (1) The "bodily injury" or "property damage" for which coverage is sought occurs; and (2) The "personal injury" for which coverage is sought arises out of an offense committed; after you have signed that "written contract requiring insurance". But this insurance provided to the additional insured still is excess over valid and collectible other insurance, whether primary, excess, contingent or on any other basis, that is available to the additional insured when that person or organization is an additional insured under any other insurance.

The following is added to Paragraph 8., Transfer Of Rights Of Recovery Against Others To Us, of SECTION IV — COMMERCIAL GENERAL LIABILITY CONDITIONS: We waive any right of recovery we may have against any person or organization because of payments we make for "bodily injury", "property damage" or "personal injury' arising out of "your work" performed by you, or on your behalf, done under a "written contract requiring insurance" with that person or organization. We waive this right only where you have agreed to do so as part of the "written contract requiring insurance" with such person or organization signed by you before, and in effect when, the "bodily injury" or "property damage" occurs, or the "personal injury' offense is committed. 4. The following definition is added to the DEFINITIONS Section: "Written contract requiring insurance" means that part of any written contract under which you are required to include a person or organization as an additional insured on this Coverage Part, provided that the "bodily injury" and "property damage" occurs and the "personal injury" is caused by an offense committed: a. After you have signed that written contract; b. While that part of the written contract is in effect; and c. Before the end of the policy period. Page 2 of 2 © 2015 The Travelers Indemnity Company.
