CG 25 03 05 09 © Insurance Services Office, Inc., 2008 Page 1 of 2 DESIGNATED CONSTRUCTION PROJECT(S) GENERAL AGGREGATE LIMIT This endorsement modifies insurance provided under the following: COMMERCIAL GENERAL LIABILITY COVERAGE PART SCHEDULE A.For all sums which the insured becomes legally obligated to pay as damages caused by "occurrences" under Section I – Coverage A,and for all medical expenses caused by accidents under Section I – Coverage C,which can be attributed only to ongoing operations at a single designated construction project shown in the Schedule above: 1.A separate Designated Construction Project General Aggregate Limit applies to each designated construction project, and that limit is equal to the amount of the General Aggregate Limit shown in the Declarations. 2.The Designated Construction Project General Aggregate Limit is the most we will pay for the sum of all damages under Coverage A,except damages because of "bodily injury " or "property damage" included in the "products-completed operations hazard", and for medical expenses under Coverage C regardless of the number of: a.Insureds; b.Claims made or "suits" brought; or c.Persons or organizations making claims or bringing "suits". 3.Any payments made under Coverage A for damages or under Coverage C for medical expenses shall reduce the Designated Construction Project General Aggregate Limit for that designated construction project. Such payments shall not reduce the General Aggregate Limit shown in the Declarations nor shall they reduce any other Designated Construction Project General Aggregate Limit for any other designated construction project shown in the Schedule above. 4.The limits shown in the Declarations for Each Occurrence, Damage To Premises Rented To You and Medical Expense continue to apply. However, instead of being subject to the General Aggregate Limit shown in the Declarations, such limits will be subject to the applicable Designated Construction Project General Aggregate Limit. Information required to complete this Schedule, if not shown above, will be shown in the Declarations. Designated Construction Project(s): WHEN REQUIRED BY WRITTEN CONTRACT 60496333 CG 25 03 05 09 CG 25 03 05 09 © Insurance Services Office, Inc., 2008 Page 2 of 2 B.For all sums which the insured becomes legally obligated to pay as damages caused by "occurrences" under Section I – Coverage A,and for all medical expenses caused by accidents under Section I – Coverage C,which cannot be attributed only to ongoing operations at a single designated construction project shown in the Schedule above: 1.Any payments made under Coverage A for damages or under Coverage C for medical expenses shall reduce the amount available under the General Aggregate Limit or the Products-completed Operations Aggregate Limit, whichever is applicable; and 2.Such payments shall not reduce any Designated Construction Project General Aggregate Limit. C.When coverage for liability arising out of the "products-completed operations hazard" is provided, any payments for damages because of "bodily injury" or "property damage" included in the "products-completed operations hazard" will reduce the Products-completed Operations Aggregate Limit, and not reduce the General Aggregate Limit nor the Designated Construction Project General Aggregate Limit. D.If the applicable designated construction project has been abandoned, delayed, or abandoned and then restarted, or if the authorized contracting parties deviate from plans, blueprints, designs, specifications or timetables, the project will still be deemed to be the same construction project.

Insuring Agreement a.We will pay those sums, in excess of the amount payable under the terms of any "underlying insurance," that the insured becomes legally obligated to pay as damages because of injury or damage to which this insurance applies, provided that the "underlying insurance" also applies, or would apply but for the exhaustion of its applicable limits of insurance. If, however, a Minimum Retention applies, as set forth in item 4, page 2, we will pay only those sums in excess of the Self Insured Retention. b.We will have the right to participate in the defense of claims or suits against the insured seeking damages because of injury or damage to which this insurance may apply. We will have a duty to defend such claims or suits when the applicable limit of insurance of the "underlying insurance" has been used up by payment of judgments, settlements and any cost or expense subject to such limit. c.This right or duty to defend is limited as set forth in item 3. d.The amount we will pay for damages is limited as described in SECTION IlI – LIMITS OF INSURANCE, page 2. e.If any "underlying insurance" is written on a claims-made basis, the "retained limit(s)" will only be reduced or exhausted by claims for that insurance that are made during the policy period, or any Extended Reporting Period, of this Coverage Part.” (1)We will have no obligation under this insurance with respect to any claim or suit that is settled without our consent; or (2)With respect to any provisions to the contrary contained in this insurance. 2. Exclusions The exclusions applicable to the “underlying insurance” also apply to this insurance. a.Damage by fire to premises rented to you. b.Any obligation to pay expenses under any medical payments coverage. c.Any obligation to reimburse an insurer as provided by the terms of the "Endorsement for Motor Carrier Policies of Insurance for Public Liability Under Sections 29 and 30 of the Motor Carrier Act of 1980" or under the terms of any similar endorsement required by federal or state statute. d.Any obligation imposed by law under any automobile no-fault,uninsured motorist, underinsured motorist, workers compensation, disability benefits or unemployment compensation law or any similar law. e.Any liability arising out of the rendering of or failure to render any "professional services," other than those "professional services" shown on the Schedule Of Underlying Insurance in the Declarations. f.Any liability arising out of or related in any way to lead poisoning, and we will have no duty of any kind with respect to any claim or suit which seeks, in whole or in part, damages or any other relief arising out of or related in any way to lead poisoning. 3. Defense of Claims or Suits a.When we have the duty to defend, we will pay for all "defense expense" once our duty to defend begins. We may make investigation of any claim or suit as we think appropriate. If we exercise our right to defend when there is no duty, we will pay only that “defense expense” we incur. If we provide a defense, we may investigate any claim or suit at our discretion. We may settle such claim or suit within the Amount of Insurance available at the time of settlement. b.Our right or duty to defend ends when we have used up the Amount of Insurance available in the payment of any combination of judgments or settlements as provided under SECTION Ill – LIMITS OF INSURANCE. This applies both to claims and suits pending at the time and those filed thereafter. c.When we control the defense of a claim or suit, we will pay for the "defense expense." If by mutual agreement or court order an insured assumes control before the applicable Amount of Insurance available is used up, we will reimburse that insured for reasonable "defense expense." Page 2 of 4 Includes copyrighted material of Insurance Services Office, Inc., with its permission.CE 70 07 06 21 d.As soon as practicable after we become aware that an Amount of Insurance available is used up: (1)We will notify you of any outstanding claims and suits subject to that amount; (2)You will then arrange to assume control of the defense of all such claims and suits against you or any other insured when our right or duty to defend them ends. e.We will assist an insured in the transfer of control of the defense of claims and suits under c. or d. above. Until such arrangements are completed, we will take on behalf of any insured those steps that we think appropriate: (1)To avoid a default in any claim or suit; or (2)To the continued defense of a claim or suit. You agree that if we take such steps: (1)We do not waive or give up any of our rights under this insurance; and (2)You will reimburse us for any “defense expense” that arises out of such steps if the applicable Amount of Insurance available has been used up. 4. Self Insured Retention The Self Insured Retention, if any, shown in the Declarations applies to all injury and damage arising out of any one "incident," if at the time of the first claim or suit for any such injury or damage the applicable "aggregate limit" of the "underlying insurance" has been used up by payment of judgments, settlements, and any costs or expenses subject to such limit. B. SECTION II – WHO IS AN INSURED Any person qualifying as such under “underlying insurance.” C. SECTION III – LIMITS OF INSURANCE 1.The Limits of Insurance shown in the Declarations and the rules below fix the most we will pay under the terms of this insurance regardless of the number of: a.Insureds; b.Claims made or “suits” brought; c.Persons or organizations making claims or bringing “suits.” 2.The Amount of Insurance stated as the General Aggregate Limit is the most we will pay. Each payment we make for such damages reduces by the amount of the payment the General Aggregate Limit. This reduced limit will then be the Amount of Insurance available for further expenses and damages of these kinds. 3.The Limits of this policy apply separately to each consecutive annual period and to any remaining period of less than 12 months, starting with the beginning of the policy period shown in the Declarations. D. SECTION IV – CONDITIONS If any of the following conditions are contrary to conditions contained in the "underlying insurance", the provisions contained in this policy apply. 1.

Bankruptcy of Underlying Insurer In the event of bankruptcy or insolvency of any "underlying insurer,"the insurance afforded by this policy shall not replace such "underlying insurance," but shall apply as if the "underlying insurance" was valid and collectable.
