Pollution - Waiver of Subrogation Policy Number MP20ECP3123491C <br />limits of liability under this policy may be reduced or exhausted by payments under this policy and/or <br />payments under all such policies; and <br />c. the sole applicable deductible or retention shall be that which applies under the policy with the largest <br />single limit of liability as established in paragraph b, immediately above. <br />21. Separation of Insureds / Severability <br />Except with respect to the limits of liability, any insured versus insured exclusion, cancellation, or any rights <br />or duties specifically assigned to the first named insured, this insurance applies: <br />a. as if each named insured was the only named insured; and <br />b. separately to each insured against whom a claim is made. <br />22. Service of Suit <br />It is understood and agreed that in the event of a failure by us to pay any amount claimed to be due <br />hereunder, we, at the request of the first named insured, will submit to a court of competent jurisdiction <br />within the United States of America. The foregoing shall not constitute a waiver of any of our rights to <br />remove, remand, or transfer such suit to any other court of competent jurisdiction in accordance with the <br />applicable statutes of the United States of America or any state therein. In any suit instituted against us <br />upon this contract, we will abide by the final decision of the court or of any appellate court in the event of an <br />appeal. <br />It is further agreed that service of process upon us in such suit may be made upon the Superintendent, <br />Commissioner, or Director of Insurance or other person specified for that purpose in the applicable statute <br />governing service of process in the state or jurisdiction in which a cause of action arises under this contract <br />of insurance, or his successor or successors in office as their true and lawful attorney upon whom may be <br />served any lawful process in any action, suit, or proceeding instituted by or on behalf of the insured or any <br />beneficiary hereunder arising out of this contract of insurance. <br />23. Subrogation <br />In the event of any payment under this insurance by us, we shall be subrogated to all the insured's rights of <br />recovery against any person or organization. No insured shall do anything after the payment of loss by us <br />to prejudice such rights. The insured agrees to cooperate with us and to execute and deliver all instruments <br />and papers and do whatever else is necessary to enforce such rights. At our request, the insured will bring <br />suit or transfer those rights to us and help us enforce them. <br />With respect to Coverage I.A. Operations Pollution Liability, we agree to waive our right of subrogation <br />against any of your clients but only if and to the extent you had a written contract with your client agreeing to <br />waive such rights prior to the pollution incident giving rise to loss hereunder began. <br />24. Transfer of Defense Duties <br />If we conclude that any applicable limit of liability of this policy has been, or soon will be, exhausted by the <br />payment of loss, we will so notify the first named insured in writing as soon as possible. In the event that <br />there are ongoing legal proceedings with respect to any claims against an insured, and any applicable limit <br />of liability of this policy has been exhausted by the payment of loss, we will advise you that our duty to <br />defend has ended and that we will no longer handle the defense of any ongoing claims or new claims <br />against an insured. Thereafter, we will initiate and cooperate in the transfer of control of the defense of all <br />claims to any appropriate insured. The exhaustion of any applicable limit of liability by the payment of loss <br />will not be affected by our failure to comply with any of the provisions of this section, nor will we be obligated <br />by operation of any rights or duties in this paragraph to defend or continue to defend any claim or pay <br />any loss after any applicable limit of liability of this policy is exhausted. <br />REVIEWED & APPROVED <br />By Risk MANAGEMENT DIVISION <br />ill <br />NAV ECP-O TLKT 11 (03/13) Page 15 of 24 <br />
