Insurance• New Document-- A101-2017 Exhibit A

– Extracts most (but not all) of Base Contract and General Conditions provisions

• Much greater detail; “check the box” decisions required

• Exhibit Addresses:– Required and Optional Coverages

– Party responsible to procure coverage

– Minimum limits

– Coverage terms and conditions

• Difference in approach:– 2007 version— “claims to insure against”

– 2017 version – specific coverage and limits required

– Requires decisions and knowledge

– Detachable and independent, but can’t ignore

Insurance• Insurance Exhibit Organization

– Owner’s Insurance

– Contractor’s Insurance and Bonds

– Special Terms and Conditions

• Practice Consideration – Must understand coverages and

impact on project risk and project cost as multiple decisions are now required

– If Owner doesn’t buy optional BR, it doesn’t exist:

• Owner would have risk…but a fight ensues

– Contractor “If Indicated” requirement.

• Eg. : Is professional indicated? If so, not enough that carried by engineer!

Owner

Owner Insurance• Owner’s Gen Liability• Property (Builder’s Risk)• Optional Extended Property

• Loss of Use• Ordinance or Law• Expediting Expense• Extra Expense• Civil Authority• Ingress/Egress• Soft Costs

• Cyber• Other (No mention of PLL)

Contractor

Contractor Insurance and Bonds

Required if indicated by activities• Commercial General Liability• Automobile Liability• Excess or Umbrella• Worker’s Compensation• Employers Liability• Jones Act/Longshore HW Comp• Professional Liability• Contractor’s Pollution• Maritime• Manned or Unmanned Aircraft

Optional (Check the Box)• Builder’s Risk (Shift from Owner)• Railroad Protective• Property: In storage/In transit• Property: Contractor owned property• Other Performance and Payment Bond 10

Insurance

• Example of Decisions Required (and Landmines)

• Risk to Insure:– Risk of “downstream”

construction cost due to a wind event (60 mph wind knocks down masonry wall and causes project delay requiring acceleration of downstream contractors)

• Decisions Required in Exhibit– Who procures Builders Risk?

• Note: If Contractor, Owner pays deductible (Named storm could be 5% of Building cost)

– Which Optional Coverages, and

what Sublimits are appropriate?

Insurance

Some Other Highlights

• Policy Effective Dates

– All coverages must be maintained through period for Correcting Work (typically 1 year after SC + extensions)

• Notice of cancellation or change

– 3 days business notice after becoming aware (vs 30 day advance notice in 2007 version); Owner may stop Work until replacement of coverage

• Additional Insureds

– Primary and non-contributory

– Required on excess/umbrella policies

• Owner failure to procure Builder’s Risk

– Contractor may procure and claim for any delay (Contract Sum and Time)

• Off- Site/In Transit Coverage

– Transferred from Owner requirement to Contractor optional coverage (Gap if box not checked)

Insurance

Some Other Practice Tips• “Minimum” Limits Language

– Good for Owner (can attack complete policy); Bad for Contractor ( State the limit)

• Inadvertent or Inadequate Coverage Problem

– Strike special activity coverages not required

– Anticipate gaps (e.g. Remodels and alterations-- ambiguous whether activity has occurred)

• Broker or Expert Involvement

• Period of Coverage

– Default time too short in some cases (e.g. professional liability)

• Responsibility to Procure Builder’s Risk

– Who should procure

– Additional coverages

– Coordination with other Owner work/property

– Transition to post completion property coverage

Additional Insurance Forms

• Major Differences between the AIA CG 20 10 07 04 and EJCDC CG 20 10 10 01 forms

Additional Insurance Forms

• With respect insurance coverage relating to the injury of a direct employee of the contractor, the CG 20 10 10 01 form can have significant advantages to the CG 20 10 07 04 forms

– The liability of the contractor directly to the employee is limited under the Workers Compensation Act

– Consequently while the additional insureds would be named in a negligence action in many cases the contractor would not be named as a defendant in the negligence action

26

Page 27: 2017 AIA Construction Documents: New Insurance …media.straffordpub.com/products/2017-aia-construction-documents-new-insurance...Jul 12, 2018  · Tips for Optimal Quality Sound Quality

Additional Insurance Forms

• If the Plaintiff does not sue its contractor/employer, there is not an allegation that the injury is due to the wrongful act of the contractor

• In most jurisdictions, the defense obligation of the insurer is based upon the allegations in the complaint

• As there would be no allegations against the contractor in the negligence action the insurer might deny the AI tender of defense under the CG 20 10 07 04 form

Additional Insurance Forms

• Potential uncovered liability in Illinois with the CG 20 10 07 04 form:

– In Illinois a contractors liability to an indemnified party can exceed its direct liability to the employee under the Workers Compensation Act due to a waiver of the Workers Compensation Act Limitation.

– Kotecki v. Cyclops Welding, 146 Ill.2d 155 (1991)

Additional Insurance Forms

• In most circumstances a contractor’s coverage for its indemnity obligation would be provided under the insured contract provision

• “Insured Contract”

• “That part of any other contract or agreement pertaining to your Business under which you assume the tort liability of another”

29

Page 30: 2017 AIA Construction Documents: New Insurance …media.straffordpub.com/products/2017-aia-construction-documents-new-insurance...Jul 12, 2018  · Tips for Optimal Quality Sound Quality

Additional Insurance Forms

• However, the Illinois Supreme Court determined that a typical indemnity agreement that complies with the Illinois Anti-Indemnity Act (which limits the indemnity with respect to any negligence by the indemnitee and waives the Workers Compensation Act Limitation) is not really an indemnity agreement and therefore is not covered as an Insured Contract

• Virginia Surety Co. v. Northern Ins. Co., 224 Ill.2d 550 (2007)

30

Page 31: 2017 AIA Construction Documents: New Insurance …media.straffordpub.com/products/2017-aia-construction-documents-new-insurance...Jul 12, 2018  · Tips for Optimal Quality Sound Quality

Additional Insurance Forms

• Consequently in an Illinois case where the AI coverage provided by the contractor to the owner was not triggered under a CG 20 10 07 04 policy because a contractor was not named as a party in the negligence action by the employee, the owner would need to sue the contractor under the indemnity agreement and the contractor would have a potentially uncovered defense and indemnity expense in the suit by the owner

Page 32: 2017 AIA Construction Documents: New Insurance …media.straffordpub.com/products/2017-aia-construction-documents-new-insurance...Jul 12, 2018  · Tips for Optimal Quality Sound Quality

Additional Insurance Forms

• Anti Indemnity Issue

• Several States (Or, Mt, Mn, Co, Az, Tx, La, Ga, NM, NJ, Ks, Ok) have legislation which declares that provisions in contracts which require a party to provide additional insurance that would cover the additional insured’s own negligence to be unenforceable

32

Page 33: 2017 AIA Construction Documents: New Insurance …media.straffordpub.com/products/2017-aia-construction-documents-new-insurance...Jul 12, 2018  · Tips for Optimal Quality Sound Quality

Additional Insurance Forms

• Pursuant to some or all of the statutes of the 12 referenced states, both the CG 20 10 07 04 form and the 20 10 10 01 form could be determined to be unenforceable

• The CG 20 10 07 04 form requires some act or omission attributable to the named insured for the provision to be triggered, although it provides for indemnity regardless of the allocation of negligence to the additional insured

• The CG 20 10 10 01 form does not require an act or omission attributable to the named insured

Page 36: 2017 AIA Construction Documents: New Insurance …media.straffordpub.com/products/2017-aia-construction-documents-new-insurance...Jul 12, 2018  · Tips for Optimal Quality Sound Quality

Defective Workmanship Coverage

▪ Do ISO CGL Policies cover defective work

performed by the insured?

▪ Historically: No.

▪ Recently: National trend towards providing

coverage.

36

Page 37: 2017 AIA Construction Documents: New Insurance …media.straffordpub.com/products/2017-aia-construction-documents-new-insurance...Jul 12, 2018  · Tips for Optimal Quality Sound Quality

Defective Workmanship Coverage—

Occurrence

▪ ISO CGL Policies provide coverage for

“bodily injury” or “property damage” caused

by an “occurrence.”

▪ An “occurrence” means “an accident,

including continuous or repeated exposure to

substantially the same general harmful

conditions.”

37

Page 38: 2017 AIA Construction Documents: New Insurance …media.straffordpub.com/products/2017-aia-construction-documents-new-insurance...Jul 12, 2018  · Tips for Optimal Quality Sound Quality

Defective Workmanship Coverage—

Accident

“Everyone knows what an accident is until the word

comes up in court. Then it becomes a mysterious

phenomenon, and, in order to resolve the enigma,

witnesses are summoned, experts testify, lawyers argue,

treatises are consulted and even when a conclave of

twelve world-knowledgeable individuals agrees as to

whether a certain set of facts made out an accident, the

question may not yet be settled and it must be reheard in

an appellate court.”1

Page 39: 2017 AIA Construction Documents: New Insurance …media.straffordpub.com/products/2017-aia-construction-documents-new-insurance...Jul 12, 2018  · Tips for Optimal Quality Sound Quality

Defective Workmanship Coverage—

Schools of Thought

▪ Construction defects are “occurrences”:

▪ So long as the damage was not expected or intended by

the policyholder;

▪ To the extent property other than the work performed by

the policyholder is damaged.

▪ Construction defects are not “occurrences” because:

▪ They are not “accidents”;

▪ To hold otherwise would transform insurance into surety

or performance bonds;

▪ They are due to intentional acts from which the resulting

damage is a foreseeable consequence.

Page 40: 2017 AIA Construction Documents: New Insurance …media.straffordpub.com/products/2017-aia-construction-documents-new-insurance...Jul 12, 2018  · Tips for Optimal Quality Sound Quality

Waiver of Subrogation—Generally

▪ Subrogation: Permits insurer that paid

insured’s loss to “stand in the shoes” of its

insured to seek recovery against party

responsible for loss.

▪ Waiver of Subrogation: Transfers certain

project risks from the contracting parties to

the insurers.

40

Page 41: 2017 AIA Construction Documents: New Insurance …media.straffordpub.com/products/2017-aia-construction-documents-new-insurance...Jul 12, 2018  · Tips for Optimal Quality Sound Quality

Waiver of Subrogation—

A201-2017 §11.3

▪ Owner and Contractor waive all rights

against Project participants for damages

covered by property insurance.

▪ Other Project participants must sign similar

written waivers.

▪ Insurance policies must not prohibit waiver of

subrogation.

Cyber Security Insurance

▪ Why should construction clients care?

▪ Target.

▪ Stole credentials from HVAC contractor.

▪ Exposed credit card and personal data for more than 110

million customers.

▪ Australia’s Secret Intelligence Center.

▪ Stole construction plans.

▪ Extended completion date an extra year and increased

costs by $132.6 million.

▪ AECOM, Turner Construction, Whiting-Turner

Contracting, Trinity Solar, . . .

Cyber Security Insurance—

Standard Insurance Policies

▪ ISO CGL Policies generally do not provide

coverage.

▪ Data or Software: not “physical damage to

tangible property.”

▪ Hardware: may be covered.

▪ Property insurance generally does not

provide coverage.

▪ No “direct physical loss.”
