EXCESS FOLLOW-FORM BOND

THE POLICY’S LIMIT OF LIABILITY WILL BE REDUCED BY CLAIM EXPENSES.

PLEASE READ THE ENTIRE POLICY CAREFULLY.

Various provisions in this bond restrict coverage. Read the entire bond carefully to determine rights, duties and what is and is not covered.

Throughout this bond the words "you" and "your" refer to the “Insureds”. The words "we", "us" and "our" refer to the Insurer providing this bond.

It is represented by the “Insureds” and it is agreed by and among the “Insureds” and us that the particulars and statements contained in the information furnished to us or to the issuers of any “Underlying Bond” in connection with underwriting this bond or any “Underlying Bond”, including statements made in the application and its attachments submitted herewith, are true and are the basis of this bond and are considered as incorporated into and constituting a part of this bond.

In consideration of the payment of premium and subject to all terms, definitions, conditions, exclusions, and limitations of this bond (including any endorsements hereto), the “Insurer” and the “Insureds” agree as follows:

SECTION I – INSURING AGREEMENT

We will provide the “Insured” with coverage in excess of the “Underlying Bond” for loss covered during the “Bond Period.” It is expressly agreed that liability for any covered loss shall attach to us only after the issuers of the “Underlying Bond” have paid the full amounts of the applicable limits of insurance of the “Underlying Bond”, and any applicable retention under the “Primary Bond” has been satisfied. Except as otherwise provided in this bond, coverage under this bond shall apply in conformity with and subject to the warranties, limitations, conditions, provisions, and other terms of the “Primary Bond”.

SECTION II - LIMIT OF LIABILITY

A.      Aggregate Limit of Liability
  The amount stated in Item 3. of the Declarations is our maximum Aggregate Limit of Liability under this bond for all covered loss, including all covered costs and expenses . The Aggregate Limit of Liability shall be reduced by the amount of any payment made by us under the terms of this bond.
B.      Single Loss Limit of Liability
  Subject to the Aggregate Limit of Liability under Paragraph A. of this Section, our liability under this bond for each single loss shall not exceed the Single Loss Limit of Liability shown under Item 4. of the Declarations.

SECTION III – DEFINITIONS

A.      “Bond Period” means the period of time identified under Item 2. of the Declarations.
B.      “Insured” means the “Named Insured” and other entities and persons insured under the “Primary Bond”.
C.      “Named Insured” means the entity or person designated under Item 1. of the Declarations.
D.      “Primary Bond” means the bond designated under Item 5.A. of the Declarations.
E.      “Underlying Bond” means all those bonds scheduled under Item 5.A. and Item 5.B. of the Declarations.

SECTION IV – CONDITIONS

A. Maintenance of Limit of Liability of Underlying Bond

The “Underlying Bond(s)” shall be maintained during the “Bond Period” in full force and effect, except for any reduction of the limits of liability of the “Underlying Bond” due to payment of loss. Failure to comply with this requirement will not invalidate this bond, but we will only be liable to the same extent that we would have been had you fully complied with this requirement.

EFI 03 00 06 09

B.      Exhaustion of Limit of Liability of Underlying Bond
  This      bond shall drop down only in the event of reduction or exhaustion of the limit(s) of liability of the
  “Underlying      Bond” by reason of payment of covered loss under the “Underlying Bond”, and shall not drop down
  for      any other reason including, but not limited to, uncollectibility (in whole or in part) of any “Underlying Bond”.
  The      risk of uncollectibility of the “Underlying Bond” (in whole or in part) whether because of financial
  impairment      or insolvency of an underlying insurer or for any other reason, is expressly retained by the
  “Insureds”      and is not in any way or under any circumstances insured or assumed by us.
  Upon      the exhaustion of all the limit(s) of liability of such “Underlying Bond” solely as a result of payment of loss
  thereunder,      the remaining limits available under this bond shall, subject to the other terms, conditions and
  limitations      of this bond, continue for subsequent losses as a primary bond and any single loss deductible
  amount      specified in the Primary Bond shall be imposed under this bond as to each single loss; otherwise no
  single      loss deductible amount shall be imposed under this bond.
C.      Changes to Underlying Bond
  You      must promptly notify us of any changes to the “Underlying Bond” which are made after its inception date.
  Any      changes made to the “Underlying Bond” after its inception shall not affect the terms and conditions of this
  bond,      which shall continue to apply as though no change had been made to the “Underlying Bond”.
D.      Bond Cancellation
  1.      You may cancel this bond. You must mail or deliver advance written notice to us stating when the cancellation is to take effect.
  2.      We may cancel this bond. If we cancel because of non-payment of premium, we must mail or deliver to you not less than ten (10) days advance written notice stating when cancellation is to take effect. If we cancel for any other reason, we must mail or deliver to you not less than ninety (90) days advance written notice, stating when the cancellation is to take effect. Mailing that notice to you at your mailing address shown in the Declarations will be sufficient to prove notice.
  3.      The bond period will end on the day and hour stated in the cancellation notice.
  4.      If we cancel, earned premium will be calculated pro rata based on the time this bond was in force.
  5.      If you cancel, earned premium will be calculated based on short rate tables.
  6.      The first “Named Insured” in Item 1. of the Declarations shall act on behalf of all other “Insureds” with respect to the giving and receiving of notice of cancellation and the receipt of any refund that may become payable under this bond.
  7.      Any of the provisions that conflict with a law that controls the cancellation of this bond is changed by this statement to comply with that law.
E.      Underlying Bond Cancellation
  This      bond is canceled immediately upon the termination of any “Underlying Bond” scheduled in Item 5.A. and
  Item      5.B. of the Declarations, whether by you or the applicable issuers of any “Underlying Bond”. You must
  promptly      notify us of the cancellation of the “Underlying Bond”. Such notice must be made when you send a
  notice      of cancellation of the “Underlying Bond” to, or when you receive such notice from, the issuer of the
  “Underlying      Bond”.
F.      Notice of Loss
  As      a condition precedent to coverage under this bond, you shall provide us with written notice of a loss under
  this      bond or any “Underlying Bond” in the same manner required by the terms and conditions of the “Primary
  Bond”.     
  You      shall provide written notice as soon as practicable to the following address:

Everest Reinsurance Company

477      Martinsville Road, P.O. Box 830 Liberty Corner, NJ 07938

G. Claim Participation

We shall have the right, but not the duty, and shall be given the opportunity to effectively associate with the “Insureds” in the investigation, settlement or defense of any claim or loss, even if the “Underlying Bond” has not been exhausted. The “Insureds” shall fully cooperate with us in connection with the investigation of any covered loss and the assertion of any claim for recovery of such loss, and shall provide to us all information and assistance reasonably requested by us.

No coverage is provided by this Policyholder Notice nor can it be construed to replace any provisions of your policy. You should read your policy and review your Declarations page for complete information on the coverages you are provided.

This Notice provides information concerning possible impact on your insurance coverage due to directives issued by OFAC. Please read this Notice carefully.
