The following insurance requirements are included in this agreement:

1. INSURANCE

The Vendor shall obtain and maintain, and require any sub-contractors to obtain and maintain, at all times during its performance of the Agreement, insurance of the types and in the amounts set forth. For projects with a Completed operations exposure, Vendor shall maintain coverage and provide evidence of insurance for two (2) years beyond final acceptance. All insurance policies shall be from responsible companies duly authorized to do business in the State of Florida and have an AM Best rating of A- VIII or better.

Vendor shall provide certificate that is compliant with the insurance requirements. If the certificate received is compliant, no further action may be necessary. The Certificate(s) of Insurance shall be signed by authorized representatives of the insurance companies shown on the Certificate(s). The Certificate holder section shall indicate Pinellas County, a Political Subdivision of the State of Florida, 400 S Fort Harrison Ave, Clearwater, FL 33756. Pinellas County, a Political Subdivision of the State of Florida shall be named as an Additional Insured for General Liability. A Waiver of Subrogation for Workers Compensation shall be provided if Workers Compensation coverage is a requirement.

A. Approval by the County of any Certificate(s) of Insurance does not constitute verification by the County that the insurance requirements have been satisfied or that the insurance policy shown on the Certificate(s) of Insurance is in compliance with the requirements of the Agreement. The County reserves the right to require a certified copy of the entire insurance policy, including endorsement(s), at any time during the contract period.

If any insurance provided pursuant to the Agreement expires or cancels prior to the completion of the work, you will be notified by COI360, the authorized Vendor of Pinellas County. Upon notification, renewal certificate(s) of Insurance and endorsement(s) should be furnished to Pinellas County Risk Management at InsuranceCerts@pinellas.gov and to COI360 c/o MDi Data at PinellasSupport@MDiclaims.io by the Vendor or their agent prior to the expiration date.

Notice shall be given by email to Pinellas County Risk Management at InsuranceCerts@pinellas.gov. Nothing contained herein shall absolve Vendor of this requirement to provide notice. Regardless of notification, it remains the Vendor’s obligation to, at all times, maintain the requisite insurance.

2) Should the Vendor, at any time, not maintain the insurance coverages required herein, the County may terminate the Agreement.

B. If subcontracting is allowed under this Agreement, the Vendor shall obtain and maintain, at all times during its performance of the Agreement, insurance of the types and in the amounts set forth; and require any subcontractors to obtain and maintain, at all times during its performance of the Agreement, insurance limits as it may apply to the portion of the Work performed by the subcontractor; but in no event will the insurance limits be less than $500,000 for Workers’ Compensation/Employers’ Liability, and $1,000,000 for General Liability and Auto Liability if required below. All subcontracts between the Vendor and its subcontractors shall be in writing and are subject to the County’s prior written approval. Further, all subcontracts shall:

1) Require each subcontractor to be bound to the Vendor to the same extent the Vendor is bound to the County by the terms of the Contract Documents, as those terms may apply to the portion of the Work to be performed by the subcontractor.

2) Provide for the assignment of the subcontracts from the Vendor to the County at the election of Owner upon termination of the Contract.

3) Provide that County will be an additional indemnified party of the subcontract;

4) provide that the County will be an additional insured on all insurance policies required to be provided by the subcontractor except workers compensation and professional liability.

5) Provide a waiver of subrogation in favor of the County.

6) Assign all warranties directly to the County.

7) Identify the County as an intended third-party beneficiary of the subcontract. The Vendor shall make available to each proposed subcontractor, prior to the execution of the subcontract, copies of the Contract Documents to which the subcontractor will be bound by this Exhibit B and identify to the subcontractor any terms and conditions of the proposed subcontract which may be at variance with the Contract Documents.
