Recoveries do not include any recovery from insurance‚ suretyship‚ reinsurance‚ security or indemnity taken for the Company's benefit.

Upon knowledge or discovery of loss or of an occurrence which may give rise to a claim under the terms of the Master Policy‚ the Insured Person shall give notice thereof as soon as practicable to the Company‚ and file detailed proof of loss‚ duly sworn to‚ with the Company within four months after the discovery of loss. If the loss involves a violation of law‚ the Insured Person shall also notify the police.

Upon the Company's request‚ the Insured Person shall submit to examination by the Company‚ subscribe the same‚ under oath if required‚ and produce for the Company's examination all pertinent records‚ all at such reasonable times and places as the Company shall designate‚ and shall cooperate with the Company in all matters pertaining to loss or claims with respect thereto. Compliance with all terms and conditions of the Master Policy are conditions precedent to recovery under the Master Policy.

The Insured Person shall keep books‚ receipts‚ bills and other records in such manner that the Company can accurately determine therefrom the amount of any loss. At any time subsequent to the reporting thereof to the Company‚ the Company may examine and audit the Insured Person's books and records as they relate to a loss under the Master Policy.

If there is any other valid and collectible insurance which would apply in the absence of the Master Policy‚ the insurance under the Master Policy shall apply only as excess insurance over such other insurance.

No action shall lie against the Company unless‚ as a condition precedent thereto‚ there shall have been full compliance with all terms of the Master Policy‚ nor until 90 days after the required proof of loss has been filed with the Company‚ nor at all unless commenced within two years from the date when the Insured Person first discovers the loss. If any limitation of time for notice of loss or any legal proceeding herein contained is shorter than that permitted to be fixed by agreement under any statute controlling the construction of the Master Policy‚ the shortest permissible statutory limitation of time shall govern and shall supersede the time limitation herein stated.

11. Subrogation

In the event of any payment under the Master Policy‚ the Company shall be subrogated to all the Insured Person's rights of recovery therefore against any person or organization‚ and the Insured Person shall execute and deliver instruments and papers and shall take whatever other actions are necessary to secure such rights for the Company. The Insured Person shall not take any action after the discovery of any loss that would prejudice such rights.
