Insuring Agreement <br />a.We will pay those sums that the insured <br />becomes legally obligated to pay as damages <br />because of "bodily injury" or "property <br />damage" to which this insurance applies. We <br />will have the right and duty to defend the <br />insured against any "suit" seeking those <br />damages. However, we will have no duty to <br />defend the insured against any "suit" seeking <br />damages for "bodily injury" or "property <br />damage" to which this insurance does not <br />apply. We may, at our discretion, investigate <br />any "occurrence" and settle any claim or "suit" <br />that may result. But: <br />(1)The amount we will pay for damages is <br />limited as described in Section III – Limits <br />Of Insurance; and <br />(2)Our right and duty to defend ends when <br />we have used up the applicable limit of <br />insurance in the payment of judgments or <br />settlements under Coverages A or B or <br />medical expenses under Coverage C. <br />No other obligation or liability to pay sums or <br />perform acts or services is covered unless <br />explicitly provided for under Supplementary <br />Payments – Coverages A and B. <br />b.This insurance applies to "bodily injury" and <br />"property damage" only if: <br />(1)The "bodily injury" or "property damage" is <br />caused by an "occurrence" that takes <br />place in the "coverage territory"; <br />(2)The "bodily injury" or "property damage" <br />occurs during the policy period; and <br />(3)Prior to the policy period, no insured listed <br />under Paragraph 1.of Section II – Who Is <br />An Insured and no "employee" authorized <br />by you to give or receive notice of an <br />"occurrence" or claim, knew that the <br />"bodily injury" or "property damage" had <br />occurred, in whole or in part. If such a <br />listed insured or authorized "employee" <br />knew, prior to the policy period, that the <br />"bodily injury" or "property damage" <br />occurred, then any continuation, change <br />or resumption of such "bodily injury" or <br />"property damage" during or after the <br />policy period will be deemed to have been <br />known prior to the policy period. <br />c."Bodily injury" or "property damage" which <br />occurs during the policy period and was not, <br />prior to the policy period, known to have <br />occurred by any insured listed under <br />Paragraph 1.of Section II – Who Is An <br />Insured or any "employee" authorized by you <br />to give or receive notice of an "occurrence" or <br />claim, includes any continuation, change or <br />resumption of that "bodily injury" or "property <br />damage" after the end of the policy period. <br />d."Bodily injury" or "property damage" will be <br />deemed to have been known to have <br />occurred at the earliest time when any <br />insured listed under Paragraph 1.of Section II <br />– Who Is An Insured or any "employee" <br />authorized by you to give or receive notice of <br />an "occurrence" or claim: <br />(1)Reports all, or any part, of the "bodily <br />injury" or "property damage" to us or any <br />other insurer; <br />(2)Receives a written or verbal demand or <br />claim for damages because of the "bodily <br />injury" or "property damage"; or <br />(3)Becomes aware by any other means that <br />"bodily injury" or "property damage" has <br />occurred or has begun to occur. <br />e.Damages because of "bodily injury" include <br />damages claimed by any person or <br />organization for care, loss of services or <br />death resulting at any time from the "bodily <br />injury".
