In other words, the indemnitee had additional insured coverage for ongoing operations, but as soon as those operations were completed, the indemnitee was no longer an additional insured.
This means that the laws are not affected by the validity of insurance as, for example, when an indemnitee is able to obtain additional insured coverage.
In addition, before defining the scope of indemnity, the parties (in particular, the indemnitee) should strictly determine the scope of the representations and warranties.
Furthermore, when the additional insured coverage is contingent on an "insured contract," the indemnitee who asked to be an additional insured will also be without protection here.
In one case where an indemnitee found itself without additional insured coverage is where coverage contingent on an "insured contract" applied solely to the products-completed operations hazard.
So, when the indemnitee begins to seek coverage and the hold harmless agreement does not involve any of the five automatic-type contracts, the indemnitee will be without protection.
