1. Obligation of Contractor - Contractor shall not commence any work until it obtains, at its own expense, all required herein insurance. Such insurance must have the approval of the Department as to limit, form and amount and must be maintained with a company authorized by laws of the State to issue such insurance in the State of Hawaii. Coverage by a “Non- Admitted” carrier is permissible provided the carrier has a AM Best’s Rating of “A-VII” or better.

2. All insurance described herein will be maintained by the Contractor for the full period of the contract and in no event will be terminated or otherwise allowed to lapse prior to written certification of final acceptance of the work by the Department.

3. Certificate(s) of Insurance acceptable to the Department shall be filed with the Engineer prior to commencement of the work. Certificates shall identify if the insurance company is a “captive” insurance company or a “Non-Admitted” carrier to the State of Hawaii. The Best’s Rating must be stated for the “Non-Admitted” carrier. Certificates shall contain a provision that coverages afforded under the policies will not be canceled or changed until at least thirty

(30) days written notice has been given to the Engineer by registered mail. The insurance policies shall name the State of Hawaii, its officers and employees as an additional insured and such coverage shall be noted on the certificate. Should any policy be canceled before final acceptance of the work by the Department, and the Contractor fails to immediately

SP-4

procure replacement insurance as specified, the Department, in addition to all other remedies it may have for such breach, reserves the right to procure such insurance and deduct the cost thereof from any money due to the Contractor.

4. Nothing contained in these insurance requirements is to be construed as limiting the extent of

Contractor’s responsibility for payment of damages resulting from its operations under this contract, including the Contractor’s obligation to pay liquidated damages, nor shall it affect the Contractor’s separate and independent duty to defend, indemnify and hold the Department harmless pursuant to other provisions of this contract. In no instance will the Department’s exercise of an option to occupy and use completed portions of the work relieve the Contractor of its obligation to maintain the required insurance until the date of final acceptance of the work.

5. All insurance described herein shall cover the insured for all work to be performed under the contract, all work performed incidental thereto or directly or indirectly connected therewith, including traffic detour work or other work performed outside the work area, and all change order work.

6. The Contractor shall, from time to time, furnish the Engineer, when requested, satisfactory proof of coverage of each type of insurance required or a copy of the actual policies covering the work. Failure to comply with the Engineer’s request may result in suspension of the work and shall be sufficient grounds to withhold future payments due the Contractor and to terminate the contract for Contractor’s default.

7. If the Contractor is self-insured, it shall furnish, upon the request and the satisfaction of the

Engineer, any documentation to demonstrate the ability to self-insure itself. The Engineer, from time to time, can conduct an audit to determine the ability of the Contractor to be self-insured. Failure to comply with the Engineer’s request will be considered a material breach of the contract, and at the discretion of the Engineer, may be sufficient grounds to terminate the contract, suspend any work or withhold future payments.

8. It is the responsibility of the Contractor to notify the Department of any changes to its insurance policies or if the Contractor receives a notice of cancellation of any of its insurance policies. The Contractor will immediately provide written notice to the Department should the insurance policies evidenced on its Certificate of Insurance form be cancelled, limited in scope, or not renewed upon expiration.

9. In addition, the Contractor’s insurance policies shall contain the following clauses:

(a) The State of Hawaii is added as an additional insured with respect to operations performed for the State of Hawaii.

(b) It is agreed that any insurance maintained by the State of Hawaii will apply in excess of, and not contribute with, insurance provided by this policy.

10. Types of Insurance - The Contractor shall purchase and maintain insurance described below which shall provide coverage against claims arising out of the Contractor’s operations under the contract, whether such operations be by the Contractor itself or by the subcontractor or by anyone directly or indirectly employed by any of them or by anyone for whose acts any of them may be liable.

(a) Worker’s Compensation. The Contractor and all subcontractors shall obtain worker’s compensation insurance for all persons whom they employ or may employ in carrying out the work under this contact. This insurance shall be in strict conformity with the

(b) Commercial General Liability. The Contractor shall obtain General Liability insurance with a limit of not less than $1,000,000 per occurrence and $2,000,000 aggregate. The commercial general liability insurance shall include the State as an additional insured.

The required limit of insurance may be provided by a single policy or with a combination of primary and excess polices.

The Contractor shall obtain Auto Liability insurance covering all owned, non-owned and hired autos with a combined single Limit of not less than $1,000,000 per accident for bodily injury and property damage. The State shall be named as additional insured. The required limit of insurance may be provided by a single policy or with a combination of primary and excess policies.

Furthermore, the Contractor’s commercial general liability insurance and automobile liability insurance shall include coverage for bodily injury, sickness, disease or death of any person, arising directly or indirectly out of, or in connection with, the performance of work under this contract.

The Contractor’s property damage liability insurance shall provide for all damages arising out of injury to or destruction of property of others including the Department’s, arising directly or indirectly out of or in connection with the performance of the work under this contract including explosion or collapse.

The Contractor shall either:

i. Require each of its subcontractors to procure and to maintain during the life of its subcontract, subcontractors’ comprehensive general liability, automobile liability and property damage liability insurance of the type and in the same amounts specified herein; or
