endorsement (see letter a. below under Commercial General Liability and letter a. below under Business
Automobile Liability) and a waiver of subrogation (see letter b. below under Commercial General Liability and
letter b. below under Business Automobile Liability) in the Description field of your policy.
Your worker’s compensation and employers’ liability policy requires only the waiver of subrogation language.
Ou

additional insured language: “The State of Arizona, and its departments, agencies, boards,
commissions, universities, officers, officials, agents, and employees shall be named as
additional insureds with respect to liability arising out of the activities performed by or on
behalf of the Contractor." Such additional insured shall be covered to the full limits of liability
purchased by the Subcontractor, even if those limits of liability are in excess of those required by
this contract.
b. Policy shall contain a waiver of subrogation endorsement (Blanket Endorsements are not
acceptable) in favor of the “State of Arizona, and its departments, agencies, boards, commissions,
universities, officers, officials, agents, and employees” for losses arising from work performed by
or on behalf of the Subcontractor.
c. If direct services are provided to children and/or vulnerable adults (as defined by A.R.S §46-451(A)

coverage may be sub-limited to no less than $500,000. The limits may be included within the
General Liability limit, provided by separate endorsement with its own limits. If you are unable to
obtain SAM coverage under your General Liability because the insurance market will not support
it, it should it be included with the Professional Liability.

Molestation coverage is included” or “Sexual Abuse and Molestation coverage is not excluded.”
