In consideration of the payment of the premium and in reliance upon all statements made and information provided to the Underwriter by the Insured and subject to the provisions of this policy, the Underwriter and the Insured agree as follows:

INSURING AGREEMENT

The Underwriter agrees to indemnify the Insured for loss which exceeds the Underlying Insurance if such loss is properly payable thereunder, or would be, except for exhaustion of the Underlying Insurance, provided that such loss is reported to the Underwriter during the Policy Period or within 30 days following the expiration or cancellation of this policy.

GENERAL AGREEMENTS

1.    NOTICE OF LOSS TO THE UNDERWRITER OR LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

  At the earliest practicable moment after discovery of loss also reported to the Primary Underlying Insurer, the Insured shall give the Underwriter written notice thereof. Within six (6) months after such discovery, the Insured shall furnish the Underwriter proof of loss, duly sworn, with full particulars; and, if requested by the Underwriter, copies of proof of loss presented to the Primary Underlying Insurer.
  Legal proceedings for the recovery of any loss hereunder shall not be brought prior to the expiration of sixty (60) days after the proof of loss if filed with the Underwriter or after the expiration of twenty-four (24) months from discovery of such loss. If any limitation embodied herein is prohibited by any law controlling the construction thereof, such limitation will be deemed to be amended so as to equal the minimum period of limitation permitted by such law.

CONDITIONS AND LIMITATIONS

1.    UNDERLYING COVERAGE

  This policy is subject to all terms and conditions of the Primary Underlying Insurance (except premium, limit of liability and any other provision set forth in this policy). However, should any provision of this policy conflict with any provision of any Underlying Insurance, then the provisions of this policy shall control. All Underlying Insurance in effect at the inception of this policy shall be maintained in full effect during the Policy Period. If the Underlying Insurance is amended or modified during the Policy Period, the Underwriter shall be given written notice as required by the Primary Underlying Insurance and premium hereunder shall be adjusted as appropriate. Failure to comply with the foregoing shall not void this policy; however, in the event of such failure, the Underwriter shall only be liable to the same extent as if the Underlying Insurance remained in full force and with the terms and conditions agreed to by the Underwriter.

2.    DROP DOWN PROVISION

  If payment by the Underlying Insurer(s) for loss reduces or exhausts the Underlying Insurance Aggregate Limit of Liability, the amount of Underlying Insurance shall correspondingly be reduced, but never below the Primary Insurer’s Deductible/Retention Amount; and this policy shall respond to the loss in excess of that reduced amount.
  Failure of an Underlying Insurer to make payment due to insolvency or for any other reason shall not reduce the Underlying Insurance and this policy shall continue to respond only to loss in excess of that unreduced amount.

3.    AGGREGATE LIMIT OF LIABILITY

  The Underwriter’s total liability for all Single Loss shall not cumulatively exceed the Aggregate Limit of Liability set forth in Item 3 of the Declarations. Each payment made under the terms of



  this policy shall reduce the unpaid portion of the Aggregate Limit of Liability until it is exhausted, except when a loss is settled by indemnity in lieu of payment. Upon exhaustion of the Aggregate Limit of Liability by such payment, the Underwriter shall have no further liability for loss regardless of when discovered and whether or not previously reported to the Underwriter.
  The unpaid portion of the Aggregate Limit of Liability shall not be increased or reinstated by any recovery. The unpaid portion of the Aggregate Limit of Liability shall not carry forward to loss discovered after the expiration of the Policy Period.

4.    SINGLE LOSS LIMIT OF LIABILITY

  The Underwriter’s liability for any Single Loss shall not exceed the Single Loss Limit of Liability set forth in Item 3 of the Declarations.

5.    CANCELLATION

  This policy cancels in its entirety upon the earliest occurrence of any of the following:
a.  60 days after the receipt by an Insured of a written notice from the Underwriter of its decision to cancel this policy;
b.  immediately upon the receipt by the Underwriter of a written notice from the Insured of its decision to cancel this policy;
c.  immediately upon the appointment of a trustee, receiver, or liquidator of any Insured, or the taking over of any Insured by State or Federal officials;
d.  immediately upon the dissolution or takeover of an Insured;
e.  immediately upon the exhaustion of the Aggregate Limit of Liability;
f.  immediately upon the expiration of the Policy Period; or
g.  immediately upon the cancellation, termination or non-renewal of the Primary Underlying
Insurance.

6.    CONFORMITY

  If any limitation embodied in this policy is prohibited by any law controlling the construction hereof, such limitation shall be deemed to be amended as to equal the minimum limitation provided by such law.

7.    CHANGE OR MODIFICATION

  This policy or any amendment affecting same may not be changed or modified orally. No change in or modification of this policy shall be effective except when made by written endorsement to this policy duly executed by the Underwriter.

POLICYHOLDER NOTICE

Ethics and proper business conduct has been the cornerstone of CNA since 1897. While much has changed during the last century, our commitment to these core values has not wavered. We strongly believe that proper business conduct is more than the practice of avoiding wrong; it is also a matter of choosing to do right. Nowhere is this more essential than helping in the fight against terrorism. As such, we are committed to complying with U.S. Department of Treasury Office of Foreign Asset Control (OFAC) requirements.

Through a variety of laws, OFAC administers and enforces economic sanctions against countries and groups of individuals, such as terrorists and narcotics traffickers. These laws prohibit aH United States citizens (including corporations and other entities) and permanent residents from engaging in transactions with sanctioned countries and with individuals and entities on the Specially Designated Nationals (SDN) list. Because all U.S. citizens and companies are subject to this law, we wanted to be sure you were aware of its scope and restrictions. If you haven’t already done so, you may want to consider discussing this issue with your legal counsel to ensure you are in compliance.

For insurance companies, accepting premium from, issuing a policy to, insuring property of, or making a claim payment to an individual or entity that is the subject of U.S.-imposed economic sanctions or trade embargoes usually are violations of these laws and regulations. Fines for violating OFAC requirements can be substantial. CNA has established an OFAC compliance program part which includes the use of exclusionary policy language. We believe this makes good business sense for CNA and you.

Our records indicate that you have insurance coverage coming up for renewal with us. The purpose of this letter is to advise you that your renewal policy includes OFAC exclusionary policy language, which may reduce or eliminate certain coverage. Specifically, if it is determined that your policy violates certain Federal or State laws or regulations, such as the U.S. list of Specially Designated Nationals or Blocked Persons (organizations or individuals associated with terrorist groups), any term or condition of your policy will be null and void to the extent it violates the applicable laws or regulations of the United States.




We’re sure you share our commitment to compliance and thank you for your cooperation. Your policy language reads as follows:
