The separate Location General Aggregate Limit is the most we will pay for the sum of all damages for "bodily injury" or "property damage" under Paragraph A.1. Business Liability, except in connection with "bodily injury" or "property damage" included in the "products- completed operations hazard", and for medical expenses under Paragraph A.2. Medical Expenses, regardless of the number of: (1) Insureds; (2) Claims made or "suits" brought; or (3) Persons or organizations making claims or bringing "suits". c. Any payments made under Paragraph A.1. or under Paragraph A.2. Medical Expenses shall reduce the separate Location General Aggregate Limit for that "location". Such payments shall not reduce the Other Than Products/Completed Operations Aggregate Limit shown in the Declarations nor shall they reduce the separate Location General Aggregate Limit for any other "location". d. 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 Other Than Products/Completed Operations Aggregate Limit shown in the Declarations, such limits will be subject to the applicable separate Location General Aggregate Limit. 2. Subject to the Combined Total Aggregate Limit shown in the Declarations, for the sum of all damages that the Insured becomes legally obligated to pay for all "bodily injury" or "property damage" caused by occurrences under Paragraph A.1. Business Liability and for all medical expenses caused by accidents under Paragraph A.2., which cannot be attributed only to operations at a single "location". a. Any payments made under Paragraph A.1. Business Liability for damages or under Paragraph A.2. for medical expenses shall reduce the amount available under the Other Than Products/Completed Operations Aggregate Limit or the Products/Completed Operations Aggregate Limit, whichever is applicable; and b. Such payments shall not reduce the separate Location General Aggregate Limit applicable to a single "location". 3. Subject to the separate Location General Aggregate Limit and all other applicable limits, the Combined Total Aggregate Limit shown in the Declarations is the most we will pay for the combined sum of amounts described above, regardless of the number of "locations". 4. Any payments we make for "bodily injury" or "property damage" included in the "products-completed operations hazard" will reduce the Products-Completed Operations Aggregate Limit regardless of the number of "locations", and not reduce the Other Than Products/Completed Operations Aggregate Limit nor the separate Location General Aggregate Limit applicable to a single "location." 5. As used in this endorsement, "location" means premises involving the same or connecting lots, or premises whose connection is interrupted only by a street, roadway, waterway or right-of-way of a railroad. 6. The provisions of Paragraph D. Liability and Medical Expenses Limits Of Insurance not otherwise modified by this endorsement shall continue to apply as stipulated. K.

Knowledge of an "occurrence" or offense by an agent or "employee" of the insured will not constitute knowledge by the insured, unless an "executive officer" (whether or not an "employee") of any insured or an "executive officer's" designee knows about such "occurrence" or offense. Failure of an agent or "employee" of the insured, other than an "executive officer'' (whether or not an "employee") of any insured or an "executive officer's" designee, to notify us of an "occurrence" or offense that such person knows about will not affect the insurance afforded to you. f. If a claim or loss does not reasonably appear to involve this insurance, but it later develops into a claim or loss to which this insurance applies, the failure to report it to us will not violate this condition, provided the insured gives us immediate notice as soon as the insured is aware that this insurance may apply to such loss or claim.

Concealment, Misrepresentation or Fraud is amended to include the following additional paragraph: Unintentional failure of an "employee" of the insured to disclose a hazard or other material information will not violate this condition, unless an "executive officer" (whether or not an "employee") of any insured knows about such hazard or other material information. P. OTHER INSURANCE, INCLUDING PRIMARY PROVISION In Section 111-Common Policy Conditions, Paragraph H. Other Insurance, subparagraphs 2. and 3. are replaced by the following: H. Other Insurance If other valid and collectible insurance is available to the insured for a loss we cover under this insurance, our obligations are limited as follows: 1. Primary Insurance This insurance is primary except when Paragraph 2 below applies. If this insurance is primary, 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 Paragraph 3 below. 2. Excess Insurance a. 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 is insurance that applies to "property damage" to premises rented to you or temporarily occupied by you with permission of the owner; or (c) If the loss arises out of aircraft, "autos" or watercraft to the extent not subject to Exclusion g. of Section 11.B. Exclusions, 1. Applicable to Business Liability Coverage; or (2) Any other primary insurance available to you covering liability for damages arising out of the premises or operations for which you have been added as an additional insured. b. When this insurance is excess, we will have no duty to defend the insured against any "suit" if any other insurer has a duty to defend the insured against that "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. c. When this insurance is excess over other insurance, we will pay only our share of the amount of the loss, if any, that exceeds the sum of: (1) The total amount that all such other insurance would pay for the loss in the absence of this insurance; BOP-47635a (07/16) Includes copyrighted material of Insurance Services Office, with its permission, 2016. Page 10 of 11 (2) The total of all deductible and self-insured amounts under all that other insurance. d. We will share the remaining loss, if any, with any other insurance that is not described in this Excess Insurance provision and was not brought specifically to apply in excess of the Limits of Insurance shown in the Declarations of this Coverage Part. 3. Method of Sharing If all of the other insurance permits contribution 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 insurance 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 insurance to the total applicable limits of insurance of all insurers. Q. WAIVER OF SUBROGATION REQUIRED BY CONTRACT In Section 111-Common Policy Conditions, Paragraph K. Transfer of Rights of Recovery Against Others To Us, subparagraph 2. is replaced by the following: 2. Applicable to Businessowners Liability Coverage: We will waive the rights of recovery we would otherwise have had against another person or organization, for loss to which this insurance applies, provided the insured has waived their rights of recovery against such person or organization in a contract or agreement that is executed before such loss. To the extent that the insured's rights to recover all or part of any payment made under this Coverage Part have not been waived, those rights are transferred to us. The insured must do nothing after loss to impair them. At our request, the insured will bring "suit" or transfer those rights to us and help us enforce them. This paragraph does not apply to Medical Expenses Coverage. All other terms and conditions of the policy remain unchanged.
