Excluded entities means vendors, suppliers, fabricators,, material dealers, drivers and others who merely transport, pick up, deliver or carry materials, personnel, parts or equipment or any other items or persons to or from the Project site
27 Who Is an Insured Some wrap-up programs use named insured endorsements that rely on the enrollment process to effect coverage for the contractors and subcontractors.

40 Indemnity Provisions Contract documents may require contractors and subs to defend and indemnify owner, contractors and/or subs in the tiers above them. Since all participating contractors are insureds under the wrap up CGL policy, the wrap up CGL policy's contractual liability coverage may respond to indemnity transfers, subject to all other terms and conditions. An ISO CGL policy may provide contractual liability coverage under the insured contact exception to the contractual liability exclusion. 40
41 Multiple Claimants and Multiple Insureds Shared Limits Are they adequate? Can the insurer settle one case when faced with multiple l cases, the sum total t of which h exceed the limits? Number of Occurrence Issues Separation of Insureds 41
