B. Indemnification by CM Contractor shall not extend to the liability of Owner's Representative, agent or employee of Owner's Representative arising out of the preparation or approval of maps, Drawings, opinions, reports, surveys, Change Orders, designs or Specifications, or the giving of or Page 9

the failure to give directions or instructions by Owner's Representative, agent or employee of Owner's Representative. C. Indemnification of Owner is limited to the extent of insurance coverage required to be carried by CM Contractor under this agreement. D. Owner warrants and affirms that Owner maintains liability and property insurance which covers consequential damage which may occur during the course of construction and agrees to Indemnify and hold CM Contractor harmless for any loss which occurs to third parties as a result of construction undertaken by this agreement. E. CM Contractor shall provide Owner with a certificate of insurance from a licensed insurance carrier which demonstrates that Owner is an additional insured under the liability insurance policy of CM Contractor.
