applies. We will have the right and duty to
defend the insured against any "suit"
seeking those damages. However, we will

We may, at our discretion, investigate any

In whole or in part. If such a listed

Other insurance
If other valid and collectible insurance is
available for a loss we cover under this
Coverage Part, our obligations are limited as
follows:
a. Primary Insurance
This Insurance Is primary except when b.
below applies. If other insurance is also
primary, we will share with all that other
insurance by the method described in c.
below.
b. Excess Insurance
This insurance Is excess over any of the
other insurance, whether primary, excess,
contingent or on any other basis:
(1) Your Work
That is Fire, Extended Coverage,
Builder's Risk, Installation Risk or
similar coverage for "your work";

That is fire, lightning or explosion
insurance for premises rented to you
or temporarily occupied by you with
permission of the owner;

cover your liability as a tenant for
"property damage" to premises rented

(6) When You Are Added As An
Additional Insured To Other
Insurance
That is other insurance available to
you covering liability for damages
arising out of the premises or
operations, or products and completed
operations, for which you have been
added as an additional insured by that
insurance; or
(7) When You Add Others As An
Additional Insured To This
Insurance
That is other insurance available to an
additional insured.
However, the following provisions
apply to other insurance available to
any person or organization who is an
additional insured under this Coverage
Part:
(a) Primary Insurance When
Required By Contract
This Insurance is primary if you
have agreed in a written contract,
written agreement or permit that
this insurance be primary. If other
insurance Is also primary, we will
share with all that other insurance
by the method described in c.
below.
(b) Primary And Non -Contributory
To Other Insurance When
Required By Contract
If you have agreed In a written
contract, written agreement or
permit that this insurance is
primary and non-contributory with
the additional insured's own
insurance, this insurance is
primary and we will not seek
contribution from that other
insurance.
Paragraphs (a) and (b) do not apply to
other insurance to which the additional
insured has been added as an
additional insured.
When this insurance is excess, we will
have no duty under this Coverage Part 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.
Form SS 00 08 04 05
BUSINESS LIABILITY COVERAGE FORM
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; and
(2) The total of all deductible and self-
insured amounts under all that other
insurance.
We will share the remaining loss, if any, with
any other insurance that is not described in
this Excess Insurance provision and was not
bought specifically to apply in excess of the
Limits of Insurance shown in the
Declarations of this Coverage Part.
c, Method Of sharing
If all 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.
8. Transfer Of Rights Of Recovery Against
Others To Us
a, Transfer Of Rights Of Recovery
If the insured has rights to recover all or
part of any payment, including
Supplementary Payments, we have made
under this Coverage Part, 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 condition does not
apply to Medical Expenses Coverage.
b. Waiver Of Rights Of Recovery (Waiver
Of Subrogation)
If the insured has waived any rights of
recovery against any person or
organization for all or part of any payment,
including Supplementary Payments, we
have made under this Coverage Part, we
also waive that right, provided the insured
waived their rights of recovery against
such person or organization in a contract,
agreement or permit that was executed
prior to the injury or damage.
