Certificate of Insurance A. Certificates of insurance, in duplicate, indicating the job site and evidencing all required coverage must be submitted to and approved by Okaloosa County prior to the commencement of any of the work. The certificate holder(s) shall be as follows: 17 Okaloosa County 602-C North Pearl Street Crestview, Florida 32536 B. All policies shall expressly require 30 days written notice to Okaloosa County at the address set out above, or the cancellations of material alterations of such policies, and the Certificates of Insurance, shall so provide. C. All certificates shall be subject to Okaloosa County’s approval of adequacy of protection and the satisfactory character of the Insurer. County reserves the right to approve or reject all deductible/SIR above $10,000. D. The Certificates of Insurance shall disclose any and all deductibles or self-insured retentions (SIRs). County requests that all deductibles or SIRs be no greater than $10,000. However, CONTRACTORS having insurance with higher deductibles may submit a bid without penalty reflecting the pricing for their deductible provided that CONTRACTOR also submits a brief company financial statement. E. All deductibles or SIRs, whether approved by Okaloosa County or not, shall be the CONTRACTOR’s full responsibility. In particular, the CONTRACTOR shall afford full coverage as specified herein to entities listed as Additional Insured. F. In no way will the entities listed as Additional Insured be responsible for, pay for, be damaged by, or limited to coverage required by this schedule due to the existence of a deductible or SIR. Specific written approval from Okaloosa County will only be provided upon demonstration that the CONTRACTOR has the financial capability and funds necessary to cover the responsibilities incurred as a result of the deductible or SIR. G. In the event of failure of the CONTRACTOR to furnish and maintain said insurance and to furnish satisfactory evidence thereof, Okaloosa County shall have the right (but not the obligation) to take out and maintain insurance on the project. All costs for the coverage will be paid by CONTRACTOR upon presentation of a bill. General Terms Any type of insurance or increase of limits of liability not described above which the CONTRACTOR required for its own protection or on account of statute shall be its own responsibility and at its own expense. The carrying of the insurance described shall in no way be interpreted as relieving the CONTRACTOR of any responsibility under this contract. Should the CONTRACTOR engage a subcontractor or sub-subcontractor, the same conditions will apply under this agreement to each subcontractor and sub- subcontractor. The CONTRACTOR hereby waives all rights of subrogation against Okaloosa County and its consultants and other indemnities of the CONTRACTOR under all the foregoing policies of insurance. Umbrella Insurance 18 The CONTRACTOR shall have the right to meet the liability insurance requirements with the purchase of an umbrella insurance policy. In all instances, the combination of primary and umbrella liability coverage must equal or exceed the minimum liability insurance limits stated in this agreement. 19 LIST OF SUBCONTRACTORS (Appendix B) The BIDDER expressly agrees that: 1.
