Side A Excess in More Detail
Additional Side A Coverage is often referred to as “entity coverage” or “entity side A coverage” as it provides additional coverage for the entity itself in addition to the directors and officers. This coverage can help to protect a company’s assets, including any potential liabilities associated with the actions of its directors and officers.
Additional Side A Coverage may also provide coverage for defense costs incurred in defending against a lawsuit or other legal action. This coverage is often included in the D&O insurance package and can help to reduce the financial burden of defending against a legal action.
In addition, Additional Side A Coverage may provide indemnification for directors and officers for any losses or damages that they may incur as a result of their actions. This indemnification coverage can help to protect the personal assets of directors and officers and can also help to protect the company’s reputation.
In summary, Additional Side A Coverage is a form of D&O insurance that provides additional coverage for directors and officers beyond traditional D&O insurance. This coverage can help to protect the company’s assets, provide indemnification for directors and officers, and cover defense costs in the event of a lawsuit or other legal action.
