    then the INSURER shall be liable only for that part of LOSS otherwise covered under this POLICY in excess of any required retention and co-insurance amounts under such UNDERLYING INSURANCE, such liability not to exceed the LIMIT OF LIABILITY.

5. ARBITRATION

 

Any interpretation of this policy relating to its construction, validity or operation shall be made in accordance with the laws of the State of Israel including, but not limited to, the Insurance Contract Law 5741 - 1981, except as amended herein.

 

The parties agree to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of Israel, however for the avoidance of doubt, it is agreed that the liability of the insured shall be determined in accordance with the applicable law of the jurisdiction wherein the claim arises or is filed.

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in respect of US claims:

 

(a) any interpretation of this policy relating to its construction, validity or operation shall be made in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, United States of America; and
   
(b)

the parties submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the State and Federal courts of the United States of America.

 

6. ASSISTANCE, COOPERATION AND CONSENT

 

The INSUREDS shall provide to the INSURER all information, assistance and cooperation which the INSURER may reasonably request, and the INSUREDS shall use diligence and prudence in the investigation, defence, negotiation of settlement and settlement of any CLAIM. The INSUREDS shall do nothing that could prejudice the INSURER’S position or its potential or actual rights of recovery with respect to any CLAIM.

 

The INSURER has no duty to defend any CLAIM and shall not be called upon to assume charge of the investigation, settlement or defence of any CLAIM. However, the INSURER shall have the right, but not the duty, to take over the control, investigation, defence, negotiation of settlement and settlement of any CLAIM that is or may be covered in whole or in part by, or that may cause liability to attach under, this POLICY.

 


 

Market Submission - Wording Page 10 of 28 SR 28/12/11 01

 

 
 

 

Policy Number: FD1260069

 


 

The INSUREDS shall not offer to settle or settle, assume any obligation, admit any liability or stipulate to any judgment with respect to any CLAIM that is or may be covered in whole or in part by, or that may cause liability to attach under, this POLICY without the INSURER’S prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. The INSURER shall not be liable for or as a result of any offer to settle, settlement, assumed obligation, admission of liability or stipulated judgment to which it has not given its prior written consent.

 

The obligations of each and every INSURED under this Clause are conditions precedent to any rights otherwise afforded under this POLICY for such INSURED(S). However, the failure of the COMPANY to assist and cooperate with the INSURER, and the failure of any INSURED to comply with his or her obligations under this Clause, shall not impair the rights of any other INSURED under this POLICY.

 

7. PAYMENT OBLIGATIONS OF THE COMPANY

 

By acceptance of the POLICY, the COMPANY agrees to indemnify the INSUREDS and pay LOSS on behalf of the INSUREDS (including the advancement of DEFENCE COSTS) to the fullest extent permitted by its constitution or other similar formative documents or by-laws.

 

A refusal by the COMPANY to indemnify or pay LOSS as required by this Clause 7 shall not prejudice the rights of any INSURED under this POLICY.

 

8. CANCELLATION

 

This POLICY shall not be subject to cancellation except as follows: 

 

(a) In the event during the POLICY PERIOD:

 

  (1) the company named in the Declarations shall merge into or consolidate with another organisation in which the company named in the Declarations is not the surviving entity, or
     
  (2) any person or entity or group of persons and/or entities acting in concert shall acquire securities or voting rights which results in ownership or voting control by such person or entity or group of persons or entities of more than 50% of the outstanding securities representing the present right to vote for election of directors or officers of the company named in the Declarations,
     
  this POLICY shall remain in force until the later of:
     
  (i) any subsequent date to which the INSURER may agree by endorsement, or
     
  (ii) termination of the POLICY PERIOD,
     
  but only with respect to CLAIMS for WRONGFUL ACTS actually or allegedly taking place before the effective date of the said merger, consolidation or acquisition. If the POLICY remains in force beyond the period of time stated in the Declarations by reason of this Clause 8(a), the LIMIT OF LIABILITY for such extension is part of and not in addition to the LIMIT OF LIABILITY applicable to the immediately preceding POLICY YEAR. All premiums paid or due at the time of the said merger, consolidation or acquisition shall be fully earned and in no respect refundable.

 

(b) This POLICY may be cancelled by the INSURER for non-payment of premium by sending notice to the COMPANY. All premiums paid or due for this POLICY shall be fully earned at the time of said end of the POLICY PERIOD.

9. CHANGES AND ASSIGNMENTS

 

The terms and conditions of this POLICY shall not be waived or changed, nor shall an assignment of interest under this POLICY be binding, except by an endorsement to this POLICY issued by the INSURER.

 

10. THIRD PARTY RIGHTS

 

No party other than any INSURED or the INSURER in respect of their own express rights under this POLICY shall be entitled to enforce any term of this POLICY for its own benefit under the UK Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 or otherwise.

 

11. ADVANCEMENT OF DEFENCE COSTS

 

Except in those instances when the INSURER has denied liability for the CLAIM because of the application of one or more exclusions, or other coverage issues, if the COMPANY refuses to indemnify or advance DEFENCE COSTS as required, or is legally prohibited from advancing or financially unable to advance DEFENCE COSTS, and if the insurer(s) of the UNDERLYING INSURANCE fails or refuses to advance such costs as provided in Clause 1(a) above, the INSURER shall, upon request and if proper documentation accompanies the request, advance on behalf of the INSUREDS, or any of them, DEFENCE COSTS that they have incurred in connection with a CLAIM, prior to disposition of such CLAIM. In the event that the INSURER so advances DEFENCE COSTS and it is finally established that the INSURER has no liability hereunder, such INSUREDS on whose behalf advances have been made and the COMPANY, to the fullest extent legally permitted, agree to repay to the INSURER, upon demand, all monies advanced. Such advanced DEFENCE COSTS shall reduce the LIMIT OF LIABILITY except to the extent they have been repaid.

 

12. CURRENCY

 

All premium, limits, retentions, LOSS and other amounts under this POLICY are expressed and payable in the currency of the United States of America.

 

13. HEADINGS

 

The descriptions in the headings and sub-headings of this POLICY are inserted solely for convenience and do not constitute any part of the terms or conditions hereof.

 

14. INSUREDS’ REPORTING DUTIES

(ii) non-renewal or cancellation of the UNDERLYING INSURANCE,

 

occurring during the POLICY PERIOD or the Discovery Period (if elected pursuant to Clause 23 below) and any additional premium reasonably required by the INSURER as a result of such change, nonrenewal or cancellation shall be paid within thirty days of the request therefor by the INSURER.

 

15. LOSS PROVISIONS

 

(a) The time when a CLAIM shall be made for purposes of determining the application of Clause 1 (Insuring Clause) above shall be the date on which the CLAIM is first made against the INSURED.
   
(b) If during the POLICY PERIOD or the Discovery Period (if elected pursuant to Clause 23 below), the INSUREDS or the COMPANY first learn of any circumstance that may reasonably be expected to give rise to a CLAIM and, during such period, give written notice of such circumstance to the INSURER then any CLAIM that is subsequently made against the INSUREDS arising out of such circumstance shall be treated as a CLAIM made during the first POLICY YEAR in which the INSUREDS or the COMPANY gave such notice. Such notice shall include the nature of the WRONGFUL ACT, the possible injury, the names of potential claimants and the manner in which the INSUREDS or COMPANY first became aware of the circumstance.

16. OTHER INSURANCE

 

Subject to subparts (b) and (c) of Clause 3 (Exclusions), if other valid and collectible insurance with any other insurer, whether such insurance is issued before, concurrent with, or after inception of this POLICY, is available to the INSUREDS covering a CLAIM also covered by this POLICY, other than the UNDERLYING INSURANCE and insurance that is issued specifically as insurance in excess of the insurance afforded by this POLICY, this POLICY shall be in excess of and shall not contribute with such other insurance. Without limiting the foregoing, this POLICY is specifically excess of and shall not contribute with any insurance which is maintained by a NON-PROFIT OUTSIDE ENTITY and available to an INSURED. Except as allowed by subpart (c) of Clause 1 (Insuring Clause), nothing herein shall be construed to make this POLICY subject to the terms of other insurance.

18. REPRESENTATION

 

By acceptance of this POLICY, the company named in the Declarations agrees to represent the INSUREDS with respect to all matters under this POLICY, including, but not limited to, the giving and receiving of notice of CLAIM or cancellation or desire not to extend the POLICY or election of the Discovery Period, the payment of premiums, the receiving of LOSS payments and any return premiums that may become due under this POLICY, the requesting, receiving, and acceptance of any endorsement to this POLICY, and the submission of a dispute to arbitration.

 

The INSUREDS agree that said company shall represent them but, for purposes of the investigation, defence, settlement, or appeal of any CLAIM, the INSUREDS who are named as defendants in the CLAIM may, upon notice to the INSURER, replace said company with another agent to represent them with respect to the CLAIM, including giving and receiving of notice of CLAIM and other correspondence, the receiving of LOSS payments, and the submission of a dispute to arbitration.

 

19. SEVERABILITY, NON RECISSION AND NON AVOIDANCE

 

(a) The APPLICATION for coverage shall be construed as a separate APPLICATION for coverage by each INSURED. With respect to the declarations and statements contained in such APPLICATION for coverage, no statement in the APPLICATION or knowledge possessed by any one INSURED shall be imputed to any other INSURED for the purpose of determining the availability of coverage with respect to CLAIMS made against any other INSURED.
   
  The acts, omissions, knowledge, or warranties of any INSURED shall not be imputed to any other INSURED with respect to the coverages applicable under this POLICY.
   
(b) This POLICY shall not be rescinded or avoided by the INSURER in whole or in part for any reason.
   
(c) In the event that any provision of this POLICY shall be declared or deemed to be invalid or unenforceable under any applicable law, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining portion of this POLICY.

 

20. SPOUSAL LIABILITY

 

If a CLAIM against an INSURED includes a claim against the INSURED’s lawful spouse solely by reason of (i) such spouse’s status as a spouse of the INSURED, or (ii) such spouse’s ownership interest in property which the claimant seeks as recovery for alleged WRONGFUL ACTS of the INSURED, all loss which such spouse becomes legally obligated to pay by reason of such CLAIM shall be treated for the purposes of this POLICY as LOSS which the INSURED becomes legally obligated to pay by reason of the CLAIM made against the INSURED. Such spousal loss shall be covered under the POLICY only if and to the extent such loss would be covered if incurred by the INSURED.

 

The coverage extension afforded by this Clause 20 does not apply to the extent such CLAIM alleges a wrongful act or omission by the INSURED’s spouse.

 

21. SUBROGATION

 

(a) In as much as this POLICY is excess insurance, the INSUREDS’ right of recovery against any person or organisation cannot be exclusively subrogated to the INSURER. It is, therefore, understood and agreed that in case of any payment hereunder, the INSURER will act in concert with all  other interests concerned (including the INSURED), in the exercise of such rights of recovery. The apportioning of any amounts that may be so recovered shall follow the principle that any interest (including the INSUREDS’) that has paid an amount over and above any payment hereunder, shall first be reimbursed up to the amount paid by it, the INSURER is then to be reimbursed out of any balance then remaining up to the amount paid hereunder; lastly, the interests (including the INSUREDS’) of which this coverage is in excess are entitled to claim the residue, if any. Expenses necessary to the recovery of any such amounts shall be apportioned between the interests concerned (including the INSUREDS’), in the proportion of their respective recoveries as finally settled. If there should be no recovery in proceedings instituted solely on the initiative of the INSURER, the expenses thereof shall be borne by the INSURER.

Policy Number: FD1260069

 


 

(b) The INSUREDS shall execute all papers reasonably required and shall take all reasonable actions that may be necessary to secure the rights of the INSURER, including the execution of such documents necessary to enable the INSURER effectively to bring suit in the name of the INSUREDS, including but not limited to an action against the COMPANY or the insurer(s) of the UNDERLYING INSURANCE for nonpayment of indemnity due and owing to the INSUREDS by the COMPANY or the insurer(s), respectively.
   
(c) For purposes of determining any impairment of the LIMIT OF LIABILITY by payment of LOSS, any amounts actually recovered by the INSURER (net of INSURER’S expenses associated with such recovery) shall be deemed to reduce such impairment.
   
(d) In no event shall the INSURER exercise its rights of subrogation against an INSURED unless and to the extent subpart (a) or (b) of Clause 3 (Exclusions) applies to such INSURED.

 

22. ACQUISITION, CREATION OR DISPOSITION OF AND COVERAGE RELATING TO SUBSIDIARIES

 

(a) Coverage shall apply to the INSUREDS of any subsidiary corporation or limited liability company in which more than 50% of the outstanding securities representing the present right to vote for election of directors is owned, directly or indirectly, in any combination, by the COMPANY and/or one or more of its SUBSIDIARIES, and which is acquired or created after the inception of this POLICY, if written notice is given to the INSURER within sixty (60) days after the acquisition or creation, and any additional premium required by the INSURER is paid within thirty (30) days of the request therefore by the INSURER. The INSURER waives the obligation to provide notice and to pay any additional premium if the assets of such newly created or acquired company are not more than 25% of the total assets of the COMPANY. The coverage provided for the INSUREDS of such new subsidiary shall be limited to CLAIMS for WRONGFUL ACTS actually or allegedly taking place subsequent to the date of acquisition or creation of the subsidiary.
   
(b) Coverage shall not apply to directors, officers and employees of any subsidiary, including a SUBSIDIARY as defined in Clause 2 (Definitions) above, for CLAIMS for WRONGFUL ACTS actually or allegedly taking place when the COMPANY and/or one or more of its SUBSIDIARIES, directly or indirectly, in any combination, did not own more than 50% of the outstanding securities representing the then right to vote for election of directors or officers in such subsidiary.

 

23. DISCOVERY PERIOD

 

(a) If the INSURER or the COMPANY elects not to renew this POLICY then the INSUREDS shall have the right, upon payment of an additional premium of 100% of the sum of all premiums otherwise paid or due for the last POLICY YEAR, to a continuation of the reporting period of this POLICY in respect of any CLAIMS first made against the INSUREDS or any of them during a period (hereinafter referred to as the “Discovery Period”) after the end of the POLICY PERIOD, but only if the CLAIMS are based on WRONGFUL ACTS alleged to have been committed prior to the end of the POLICY PERIOD. Such CLAIMS shall be deemed to have been made during the last POLICY YEAR, provided that notification is in accordance with Clause 14 or 15 above. The right to elect the Discovery Period shall terminate, however, unless written notice of such election together with the additional premium is received by the INSURER within thirty (30) days after the end of the POLICY PERIOD. Any premium paid for the Discovery Period is not refundable.

 


 

Market Submission - Wording Page 15 of 28 SR 28/12/11 01

 

 
 

 

Policy Number: FD1260069

 


 

(b) The length of the Discovery Period shall be the same amount of time as the length of the POLICY PERIOD, subject to a maximum Discovery Period of one year.
   
(c) The offer by the INSURER of renewal at a premium different from the premiums for the expiring POLICY YEAR shall not constitute an election by the INSURER not to renew this POLICY,
   
(d) The LIMIT OF LIABILITY provided during the Discovery Period is part of and not in addition to the LIMIT OF LIABILITY provided during the immediately preceding POLICY YEAR, and there shall be no separate or additional LIMIT OF LIABILITY for the Discovery Period.

 

24. INSOLVENCY

 

In the event of the appointment of a licensed insolvency practitioner to take control of, supervise, manage or liquidate the COMPANY under the UK Insolvency Act 1986 as amended from time to time or equivalent provisions under applicable law and LOSS exceeds the remaining available LIMIT OF LIABILITY, the INSURER shall:

 

(a) first pay LOSS allocable to WRONGFUL ACTS that are actually or allegedly caused, committed, or attempted prior to the appointment of such insolvency practitioner, then
   
(b) with respect to whatever remaining amount of the LIMIT OF LIABILITY is available after payment under (a) above, pay LOSS allocable to WRONGFUL ACTS that are actually or alleged caused, committed, or attempted after the appointment of such insolvency practitioner.

Policy Number: FD1260067

 

 

  The proposal shall be construed as a separate proposal by each of the insured. With respect to statements and particulars in the proposal, no statements made or knowledge possessed by any insured shall be imputed to any other insured to determine whether cover is available for any claim made against such other insured.
   
5.2 Changes in Risk During Policy Period

  (i) If during the policy period a transaction takes place, then the cover provided under this policy is amended to apply only to wrongful act(s) committed prior to the effective date of the transaction.
     
  (ii) If during the policy period, the company decides to make an initial offering of its securities in any jurisdiction, whether its securities are already traded or not, by any means, public or private, then as soon as the information is publicly available, the company shall provide the insurer with any prospectus or offering statement for the insurer’s evaluation and assessment of the increased exposure of the insured and the insurer shall be entitled to amend the terms and conditions of this policy and/or charge a reasonable additional premium reflecting the increase in exposure.
     
    At the policyholder’s request, prior to the public announcement of such securities offering, the insurer shall evaluate and assess the increased exposure and advise of all necessary amendments to the terms and conditions of this policy and additional premium.

5.3 Limit of Liability
  The limit of liability specified in the Schedule is the total aggregate limit of the insurer’s liability for all loss, arising out of all claims made against all insureds under all insurance covers under this policy combined. The limit of liability for the discovery period shall be part of and not in addition to the total aggregate limit of liability for the policy period. Loss arising from any claim which is made subsequent to the policy period or discovery period which pursuant to General provision 5.5 is considered made during the policy period or discovery period shall also be subject to the same total aggregate limit of liability. Defence costs are not payable by the insurer in addition to the total aggregate limit of liability.

5.4 Retention
  The insurer shall only be liable for the amount of loss arising from a claim which is in excess of the retention amount specified in the Schedule with regard to all loss under all insurance covers under this policy for which the company has indemnified or is permitted or required to indemnify the insured. The retention amount is to be borne by the company and shall remain uninsured.  A single retention amount shall apply to loss arising from all claims alleging a single wrongful act.
   
  Provided, however, that no retention shall apply and  the insurer shall thereupon reimburse any defence costs paid by the company, in the event of:

  (ii) a dismissal or a stipulation to dismiss the claim without prejudice and without the payment of any consideration by any insured.

Policy Number: FD1260067

 

 

  Provided, however, that in the case of (ii) above, such reimbursement shall occur 90 days after the date of dismissal or stipulation as long as the claim is not re-brought (or any other claim which is subject to the same single retention by virtue of this General provision 5.4 is not brought) within that time, and further subject to an undertaking by the company in a form acceptable to the insurer that such reimbursement shall be paid back by the company to the insurer in the event the claim (or any other claim which is subject to the same single retention by virtue of this General provision 5.4) Is brought after such 90 day period.
   
5.5 How to Give Notice and Report a Claim

 

  (i) Notice of a claim or of circumstances which may result in a claim shall be given in writing to insurers via Aon Limited, Financial Services Group, 8 Devonshire Square, London, EC3M 4PL. If posted the date of posting shall constitute the date that notice was given, and proof of posting shall be sufficient proof of notice.

    or
     
  (b) within 30 days after the end of the policy period or the discovery period, as long as such claim(s) is reported no later than 30 days after the date such claim was first made against an insured.

 

  (iii) If, during the policy period or during the discovery period written notice of a claim against an insured has been given to the insurer pursuant to the terms and conditions of this policy, then any claim arising out of, based upon or attributable to the facts alleged in the claim previously notified to the insurer or alleging a single wrongful act which is the same as or related to any wrongful act alleged in the previously notified claim, shall be considered made against the insured and reported to the insurer at the time the first notice was given.
     
  (iv) If during the policy period or during the discovery period, the company or the insured shall become aware of any circumstances which may reasonably be expected to give rise to a claim being made against an insured and shall give written notice to the insurer of the circumstances and the reasons for anticipating a claim, with full particulars as to dates and persons involved, then any claim which is subsequently made against an insured and reported to the insurer arising out of, based upon or attributable to the circumstances or alleging any wrongful act which is the same as or related to any wrongful act alleged or contained in those circumstances, shall be considered made against the insured and reported to the insurer at the time the notice of the circumstances was first given.

 

5.6 Advancement of Costs
  The insurer shall advance to the insured or the company defence costs under all insurance covers under this policy before the final disposition of the claim.
   
  The advance payments by the insurer shall be repaid to the insurer by the company or the insured, severally according to their respective interests, in the event and to the extent that the company or the insured shall not be entitled to payment of the loss under the terms and conditions of this policy.
   
  In the event and to the extent that the company is permitted or required to indemnify the insured but for whatever reason fails to do so, the insurer will advance all defence costs to the insured on behalf of the company.

5.7 How Defence Will Be Conducted
  The insured shall have the right and duty to defend and contest any claim. The insurer shall have the right to effectively associate with the insured and the company in the defence and settlement of any claim that appears reasonably likely to involve the insurer, including but not limited to effectively associating in the negotiation of any settlement.

The cost of the Queen’s Counsel shall be borne by the insurer.

 

5.8 Allocation
  (i) The insurer has no obligation under this policy for defence costs incurred by the company, or any judgments rendered against or settlements by the company, or any obligation to pay loss arising out of any legal liability that the company has to the third party claimant.

    (a) defence costs jointly incurred by;

  (iii) In the event that a determination as to the amount of defence costs to be advanced to the insured under this policy cannot be agreed to, then the insurer shall advance defence costs which the insurer states to be fair and proper until a different amount shall be agreed upon or determined pursuant to the provisions of this policy and applicable law.

Any interpretation of this policy relating to its construction, validity or operation shall be made in accordance with the laws of the State of Israel including, but not limited to, the Insurance Contract Law 5741 - 1981, except as amended herein.

 

The parties agree to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of Israel, however for the avoidance of doubt, it is agreed that the liability of the insured shall be determined in accordance with the applicable law of the jurisdiction wherein the claim arises or is filed.

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in respect of US claims:

 

(a) any interpretation of this policy relating to its construction, validity or operation shall be made in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, United States of America; and
(b) the parties submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the State and Federal courts of the United States of America.

The INSUREDS shall provide to the INSURER all information, assistance and cooperation which the INSURER may reasonably request, and the INSUREDS shall use diligence and prudence in the investigation, defence, negotiation of settlement and settlement of any CLAIM. The INSUREDS shall do nothing that could prejudice the INSURER’S position or its potential or actual rights of recovery with respect to any CLAIM.

 

The INSURER has no duty to defend any CLAIM and shall not be called upon to assume charge of the investigation, settlement or defence of any CLAIM. However, the INSURER shall have the right, but not the duly, to take over the control, investigation, defence, negotiation of settlement and settlement of any CLAIM that is or may be covered in whole or in part by, or that may cause liability to attach under, this POLICY.

 


 

Market Submission - Wording Page 14 of 5 SR 28/12/11 01  

 
 

 

Policy Number: FD1260068

 


 

The INSUREDS shall not offer to settle or settle, assume any obligation, admit any liability or stipulate to any judgment with respect to any CLAIM that is or may be covered in whole or in part by, or that may cause liability to attach under, this POLICY without the INSURER’S prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. The INSURER shall not be liable for or as a result of any offer to settle, settlement, assumed obligation, admission of liability or stipulated judgment to which it has not given its prior written consent.

 

The obligations of each and every INSURED under this Clause are conditions precedent to any rights otherwise afforded under this POLICY for such INSURED(S). However, the failure of the COMPANY to assist and cooperate with the INSURER, and the failure of any INSURED to comply with his or her obligations under this Clause, shall not impair the rights of any other INSURED under this POLICY.

 

7. PAYMENT OBLIGATIONS OF THE COMPANY

 

By acceptance of the POLICY, the COMPANY agrees to indemnify the INSUREDS and pay LOSS on behalf of the INSUREDS (including the advancement of DEFENCE COSTS) to the fullest extent permitted by its constitution or other similar formative documents or by-laws.

 

A refusal by the COMPANY to indemnify or pay LOSS as required by this Clause 7 shall not prejudice the rights of any INSURED under this POLICY.

 

8. CANCELLATION

 

This POLICY shall not be subject to cancellation except as follows:

 

(a) In the event during the POLICY PERIOD:

 

  (1) the company named in the Declarations shall merge into or consolidate with another organisation in which the company named in the Declarations is not the surviving entity, or
     
  (2) any person or entity or group of persons and/or entities acting in concert shall acquire securities or voting rights which results in ownership or voting control by such person or entity or group of persons or entities of more than 50% of the outstanding securities representing the present right to vote for election of directors or officers of the company named in the Declarations,
     
  this POLICY shall remain in force until the later of:

 

  (i) any subsequent date to which the INSURER may agree by endorsement, or
     
  (ii) termination of the POLICY PERIOD,
     
  but only with respect to CLAIMS for WRONGFUL ACTS actually or allegedly taking place before the effective date of the said merger, consolidation or acquisition. If the POLICY remains in force beyond the period of time stated in the Declarations by reason of this Clause 8(a), the LIMIT OF LIABILITY for such extension is part of and not in addition to the LIMIT OF LIABILITY applicable to the immediately preceding POLICY YEAR. All premiums paid or due at the time of the said merger, consolidation or acquisition shall be fully earned and in no respect refundable.

 

(b) This POLICY may be cancelled by the INSURER for non-payment of premium by sending notice to the COMPANY. All premiums paid or due for this POLICY shall be fully earned at the time of said end of the POLICY PERIOD.

11. ADVANCEMENT OF DEFENCE COSTS

 

Except in those instances when the INSURER has denied liability for the CLAIM because of the application of one or more exclusions, or other coverage issues, if the COMPANY refuses to indemnify or advance DEFENCE COSTS as required, or is legally prohibited from advancing or financially unable to advance DEFENCE COSTS, and if the insurer(s) of the UNDERLYING INSURANCE fails or refuses to advance such costs as provided in Clause 1(a) above, the INSURER shall, upon request and if proper documentation accompanies the request, advance on behalf of the INSUREDS, or any of them, DEFENCE COSTS that they have incurred in connection with a CLAIM, prior to disposition of such CLAIM. In the event that the INSURER so advances DEFENCE COSTS and it is finally established that the INSURER has no liability hereunder, such INSUREDS on whose behalf advances have been made and the COMPANY, to the fullest extent legally permitted, agree to repay to the INSURER, upon demand, all monies advanced. Such advanced DEFENCE COSTS shall reduce the LIMIT OF LIABILITY except to the extent they have been repaid.

 

12. CURRENCY

 

All premium, limits, retentions, LOSS and other amounts under this POLICY are expressed and payable in the currency of the United States of America,

 

13. HEADINGS

The INSUREDS and the COMPANY shall cooperate with the INSURER and give such additional information as the INSURER may reasonably require.

15. LOSS PROVISIONS

 

(a) The time when a CLAIM shall be made for purposes of determining the application of Clause 1 (Insuring Clause) above shall be the date on which the CLAIM is first made against the INSURED.

(c) The COMPANY and the INSUREDS shall, in relation to any notice given under subpart (b) of this Clause 15, give the INSURER such information and cooperation as it may reasonably require and as shall be in the COMPANY’S and the INSUREDS’ power.

 

16. OTHER INSURANCE

 

Subject to subparts (b) and (c) of Clause 3 (Exclusions), if other valid and collectible insurance with any other insurer, whether such insurance is issued before, concurrent with, or after inception of this POLICY, is available to the INSUREDS covering a CLAIM also covered by this POLICY, other than the UNDERLYING INSURANCE and Insurance that is issued specifically as insurance in excess of the insurance afforded by this POLICY, this POLICY shall be in excess of and shall not contribute with such other insurance. Without limiting the foregoing, this POLICY is specifically excess of and shall not contribute with any insurance which is maintained by a NON-PROFIT OUTSIDE ENTITY and available to an INSURED. Except as allowed by subpart (c) of Clause 1 (Insuring Clause), nothing herein shall be construed to make this POLICY subject to the terms of other insurance.

18. REPRESENTATION

 

By acceptance of this POLICY, the company named in the Declarations agrees to represent the INSUREDS with respect to all matters under this POLICY, including, but not limited to, the giving and receiving of notice of CLAIM or cancellation or desire not to extend the POLICY or election of the Discovery Period, the payment of premiums, the receiving of LOSS payments and any return premiums that may become due under this POLICY, the requesting, receiving, and acceptance of any endorsement to this POLICY, and the submission of a dispute to arbitration.

 

The INSUREDS agree that said company shall represent them but, for purposes of the investigation, defence, settlement, or appeal of any CLAIM, the INSUREDS who are named as defendants in the CLAIM may, upon notice to the INSURER, replace said company with another agent to represent them with respect to the CLAIM, including giving and receiving of notice of CLAIM and other correspondence, the receiving of LOSS payments, and the submission of a dispute to arbitration.

 

19. SEVERABILITY, NON RECISSION AND NON AVOIDANCE

 

(a) The APPLICATION for coverage shall be construed as a separate APPLICATION for coverage by each INSURED. With respect to the declarations and statements contained in such APPLICATION for coverage, no statement in the APPLICATION or knowledge possessed by any one INSURED shall be imputed to any other INSURED for the purpose of determining the availability of coverage with respect to CLAIMS made against any other INSURED.
   
  The acts, omissions, knowledge, or warranties of any INSURED shall not be imputed to any other INSURED with respect to the coverages applicable under this POLICY.
   
(b) This POLICY shall not be rescinded or avoided by the INSURER in whole or in part for any reason.
   
(c) In the event that any provision of this POLICY shall be declared or deemed to be invalid or unenforceable under any applicable law, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining portion of this POLICY,

 

20. SPOUSAL LIABILITY

 

If a CLAIM against an INSURED includes a claim against the INSURED’s lawful spouse solely by reason of (i) such spouse’s status as a spouse of the INSURED, or (ii) such spouse’s ownership interest in property which the claimant seeks as recovery for alleged WRONGFUL ACTS of the INSURED, all loss which such spouse becomes legally obligated to pay by reason of such CLAIM shall be treated for the purposes of this POLICY as LOSS which the INSURED becomes legally obligated to pay by reason of the CLAIM made against the INSURED. Such spousal loss shall be covered under the POLICY only if and to the extent such loss would be covered if incurred by the INSURED.

 

The coverage extension afforded by this Clause 20 does not apply to the extent such CLAIM alleges a wrongful act or omission by the INSURED’s spouse.

 

21. SUBROGATION

 

(a) In as much as this POLICY is excess insurance, the INSUREDS’ right of recovery against any person or organisation cannot be exclusively subrogated to the INSURER. It is, therefore, understood and agreed that in case of any payment hereunder, the INSURER will act in concert with all other interests concerned (including the INSURED), in the exercise of such rights of recovery. The apportioning of any amounts that may be so recovered shall follow the principle that any interest (including the INSUREDS’) that has paid an amount over and above any payment hereunder, shall first be reimbursed up to the amount paid by it; the INSURER is then to be reimbursed out of any balance then remaining up to the amount paid hereunder; lastly, the interests (including the INSUREDS’) of which this coverage is in excess are entitled to claim the residue, if any. Expenses necessary to the recovery of any such amounts shall be apportioned between the interests concerned (including the INSUREDS’), in the proportion of their respective recoveries as finally settled. If there should be no recovery in proceedings instituted solely on the initiative of the INSURER, the expenses thereof shall be borne by the INSURER.

Policy Number: FD1260068

 


 

(b) The INSUREDS shall execute all papers reasonably required and shall take all reasonable actions that may be necessary to secure the rights of the INSURER, including the execution of such documents necessary to enable the INSURER effectively to bring suit in the name of the INSUREDS, including but not limited to an action against the COMPANY or the insurer(s) of the UNDERLYING INSURANCE for nonpayment of indemnity due and owing to the INSUREDS by the COMPANY or the insurer(s), respectively.
   
(c) For purposes of determining any impairment of the LIMIT OF LIABILITY by payment of LOSS, any amounts actually recovered by the INSURER (net of INSURER’S expenses associated with such recovery) shall be deemed to reduce such impairment.
   
(d) In no event shall the INSURER exercise its rights of subrogation against an INSURED unless and to the extent subpart (a) or (b) of Clause 3 (Exclusions) applies to such INSURED.

 

22. ACQUISITION, CREATION OR DISPOSITION OF AND COVERAGE RELATING TO SUBSIDIARIES

 

(a) Coverage shall apply to the INSUREDS of any subsidiary corporation or limited liability company in which more than 60% of the outstanding securities representing the present right to vote for election of directors is owned, directly or indirectly, in any combination, by the COMPANY and/or one or more of its SUBSIDIARIES, and which is acquired or created after the inception of this POLICY, if written notice is given to the INSURER within sixty (60) days after the acquisition or creation, and any additional premium required by the INSURER is paid within thirty (30) days of the request therefore by the INSURER. The INSURER waives the obligation to provide notice and to pay any additional premium if the assets of such newly created or acquired company are not more than 25% of the total assets of the COMPANY. The coverage provided for the INSUREDS of such new subsidiary shall be limited to CLAIMS for WRONGFUL ACTS actually or allegedly taking place subsequent to the date of acquisition or creation of the subsidiary.
   
(b) Coverage shall not apply to directors, officers and employees of any subsidiary, including a SUBSIDIARY as defined in Clause 2 (Definitions) above, for CLAIMS for WRONGFUL ACTS actually or allegedly taking place when the COMPANY and/or one or more of its SUBSIDIARIES, directly or indirectly, in any combination, did not own more than 50% of the outstanding securities representing the then right to vote for election of directors or officers in such subsidiary.

 

23. DISCOVERY PERIOD

 

(a) If the INSURER or the COMPANY elects not to renew this POLICY then the INSUREDS shall have the right, upon payment of an additional premium of 100% of the sum of all premiums otherwise paid or due for the last POLICY YEAR, to a continuation of the reporting period of this POLICY in respect of any CLAIMS first made against the INSUREDS or any of them during a period (hereinafter referred to as the “Discovery Period”) after the end of the POLICY PERIOD, but only if the CLAIMS are based on WRONGFUL ACTS alleged to have been committed prior to the end of the POLICY PERIOD. Such CLAIMS shall be deemed to have been made during the last POLICY YEAR, provided that notification is in accordance with Clause 14 or 15 above. The right to elect the Discovery Period shall terminate, however, unless written notice of such election together with the additional premium is received by the INSURER within thirty (30) days after the end of the POLICY PERIOD. Any premium paid for the Discovery Period is not refundable.

(b) The length of the Discovery Period shall be the same amount of time as the length of the POLICY PERIOD, subject to a maximum Discovery Period of one year.
   
(c) The offer by the INSURER of renewal at a premium different from the premiums for the expiring POLICY YEAR shall not constitute an election by the INSURER not to renew this POLICY.
   
(d) The LIMIT OF LIABILITY provided during the Discovery Period is part of and not in addition to the LIMIT OF LIABILITY provided during the immediately preceding POLICY YEAR, and there shall be no separate or additional LIMIT OF LIABILITY for the Discovery Period.

(a) first pay LOSS allocable to WRONGFUL ACTS that are actually or allegedly caused, committed, or attempted prior to the appointment of such insolvency practitioner, then
   
(b) with respect to whatever remaining amount of the LIMIT OF LIABILITY is available after payment under (a) above, pay LOSS allocable to WRONGFUL ACTS that are actually or alleged caused, committed, or attempted after the appointment of such insolvency practitioner.

SECURITY DETAILS

 

(RE)INSURER’S LIABILITY:

 

(Ra) Insuror’s liability several not joint

 

The liability of a (re)insurer under this contract is several and not joint with other (re)insurers party to this contract. A (re)insurer is liable only for the proportion of liability it has underwritten. A (re)insurer is not jointly liable for the proportion of liability underwritten by any other (re)insurer. Nor is a (re)insurer otherwise responsible for any liability of any other (re)insurer that may underwrite this contract.

 

The proportion of liability under this contract underwritten by a (re)insurer (or, in the case of a Lloyd’s syndicate, the total of the proportions underwritten by all the members of the syndicate taken together) is shown next to its stamp. This is subject always to the provision concerning “signing” below.

 

In the case of a Lloyd’s syndicate, each member of the syndicate (rather than the syndicate itself) is a (re)insurer. Each member has underwritten a proportion of the total shown for the syndicate (that total itself being the total of the proportions underwritten by all the members of the syndicate taken together). The liability of each member of the syndicate is several and not joint with other members. A member is liable only for that member’s proportion. A member is not jointly liable for any other member’s proportion. Nor is any member otherwise responsible for any liability of any other (re)insurer that may underwrite this contract. The business address of each member is Lloyd’s, One Lime Street, London EC3M 7HA. The identity of each member of a Lloyd’s syndicate and their respective proportion may be obtained by writing to Market Services, Lloyd’s, at the above address.

 

Proportion of liability
