Exhibit C- Insurance Requirements
1. Insurance Requirements
1.1. Grant Recipient shall purchase and maintain, at its sole cost and expense, the minimum
insurance set forth below. By requiring such minimum insurance, the County does not
and shall not be deemed or construed to have assessed the risks that may be applicable to
Grant Recipient, or any Contractor under this Agreement, or in any way limit the
County’s potential recovery to insurance limits required hereunder. To the contrary, this
Agreement’s insurance requirements may not in any way be construed as limiting any
potential liability to the County or the County’s potential recovery from Grant Recipient.
Grant Recipient and any Contractor shall assess their own risks and if they deem
appropriate and/or prudent, maintain greater limits and/or broader coverage.
1.2. Nothing contained within these insurance requirements shall be deemed to limit the
scope, application and/or limits of the coverage afforded, which coverage shall apply to
each insured to the full extent provided by the terms and conditions of the policy(s).
Nothing contained within this provision shall affect and/or alter the application of any
other provision contained within this Agreement.
1.3. Each insurance policy shall be written on an “occurrence” basis; excepting insurance for
Professional Liability (Errors and Omissions), and/or Pollution Liability, and/or Cyber
Liability (Technology Errors and Omissions). These coverages required by this

If coverage is approved and purchased on a “claims made” basis, the coverage provided
under that insurance shall be maintained through: (i) consecutive policy renewals for not
less than three (3) years from the date of completion of the Project which is subject of
this Agreement or, if such renewals are unavailable, (ii) the purchase of a tail/extended
reporting period for not less than three (3) years from the date of completion of the
