RSA Chapter 281-A, “Workers’ Compensation”.
(Sole Proprietors not subject to Workers’ Compensation requirements)
Service Provider shall maintain in effect at all times during the performance under this contract all specified
insurance coverage with insurers. None of the requirements as to types and limits to be maintained by Service
Provider are intended to and shall not in any manner limit or qualify the liabilities and obligations assumed by
Service Provider under the contract. The City of Nashua shall not maintain any insurance on behalf of
Service Provider. Subcontractors are subject to the same insurance requirements as the Service Provider and it
shall be the Service Provider’s responsibility to ensure compliance of this requirement. Service Provider will
provide the City of Nashua with certificates of insurance for coverage as listed below and endorsements
affecting coverage required by the contract within ten (10) calendar days after the City of Nashua issues the
notice of award. The City of Nashua requires thirty (30) days written notice of cancellation or material change
in coverage. The certificates and endorsements for each insurance policy are to be signed by a person
authorized by the insurer and who is licensed by the State of New Hampshire. Certificates must name the
City of Nashua as an additional insured, except for Professional liability insurance. Service Provider is
responsible for filing updated Certificates of Insurance with the City of Nashua’s Risk Management
Department during the life of the contract. The certificate should be mailed to:

reason of any negligent act, omission, or fault or willful misconduct, whether active or passive, of Service
Provider or of anyone acting under its direction or control or on its behalf in connection with or incidental to
the performance of this contract. Service Provider's indemnity, defense and hold harmless obligations, or
portions thereof, shall not apply to liability caused by the sole negligence or willful misconduct of the party
indemnified or held harmless.

monies for the ensuing fiscal year sufficient for the performance of this contract.

entity. Any funds obligated by the City of Nashua under this contract that are not paid to Service Provider
