COMPLAINT FOR DECLARATORY JUDGMENT
AND NOW, comes plaintiff, United National Insurance Company by and through its
undersigned counsel Marshall, Dennehey, Warner, Coleman & Goggin, and hereby files this
Complaint for Declaratory Judgment and in support thereof, avers as follows:
1. Plaintiff, United National Insurance Company, ("United National") is a
Pennsylvania corporation licensed to issue insurance policies in the Commonwealth of
Pennsylvania, with a business address of 5300 Derry Street, Harrisburg, Pennsylvania 17111.
2. Defendant, Clouse Trucking, Inc. is a corporation organized and existing under
the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, with its principle place of business located at
2075 Rimer Highway, Carlisle, Pennsylvania 17013.
Defendant, J. Edward Clouse is an adult individual who at all times relevant to
this claim was chief executive officer and an authorized employee of Clouse Trucking, with a
business address of 2075 Rimer Highway, Carlisle, Pennsylvania 17013.
4. Defendant, Land O' Lakes, Inc. is a Minnesota corporation with a local business
address of 405 Park Drive, Carlisle, Pennsylvania 17013, and named herein as a nominal
defendant pursuant to the Declaratory Judgment Act, 42 Pa. C.S.§ 7531, et seg.
5. Defendant, Dairy Marketing Services, LLC is a limited liability company doing
business in Pennsylvania with offices located at P.O. Box 4814, Syracuse, New York 13221, and
named herein as a nominal defendant pursuant to the Declaratory Judgment Act, 42 Pa. C.S.§
7531, et seg.
6. Defendant, St. Paul Reinsurance Company, Ltd. is, upon information and belief,
an insurance carrier who issued a commercial general liability insurance policy to Clouse
Trucking and may have an interest in the outcome of this litigation.
Defendant, Centennial Insurance Company is, upon information and belief, an
insurance carrier who issued a motor truck carriers' liability insurance policy to Clouse Trucking
and may have an interest in the outcome of this litigation.
8. This is an action for declaratory judgment brought pursuant to 42 Pa.C.S. § 7531,
et seq., for the purpose of determining a question in actual controversy between the parties, as
more fully described herein.
9. The instant controversy arises under a policy of commercial automobile liability
insurance, bearing policy no. UN3700799 issued to Clouse Trucking, Inc. as its named insured.
(A certified copy of the insurance policy is attached hereto as Exhibit "A", Bates numbered
0001-0064 for ease of reference).
10. The dispute concerns the defense and potential indemnification of Clouse
Trucking, Inc. and J. Edward Clouse for a lawsuit filed by Land O' Lakes and Dairy Marketing
Services naming Clouse Trucking and J. Edward Clouse as defendants, in the Cumberland
County Court of Common Pleas, No. 03-2782. ("The underlying action"). (A copy of the
Amended Complaint in the underlying action is attached hereto as Exhibit "B").
11. The Amended Complaint in the underlying action alleges, in pertinent part:
10. At all times relevant to the within cause of actions, DMS
[Dairy Marketing Services] marketed milk of producers, including
certain producers located in Pennsylvania ("DMS Producers"), and
engaged Clouse Trucking to pick up raw milk from producers and
deliver the raw milk to dairy plants.
11. All Defendants knew of should have known that for a
period of time immediately prior to August 6, 2001, Martin had
halted milk shipments because of the presence of antibiotics in
Martin's raw milk.
12. On or about August 6, 2001, L.E. Speidel (hereinafter
"Speidel"), an employee of Clouse Trucking, operating a tank
truck owned by Clouse Trucking, on behalf of Cloverland picked
up a load of raw milk from the farm tank of Martin (hereinafter the
"Cloverland Milk"). Prior to loading such raw milk onto the rear
compartment of the tank truck, Speidel took a raw milk sample,
commonly referred to as a producer sample, from the Martin farm
tank.
13. Thereafter, in the same truck and on behalf of DMS,
Speidel picked up more milk from the farm tanks of the DMS
Producers (hereinafter "DMS Milk") and also took producer
samples from such DMS Producers' farm tanks and loaded the
DMS Milk into the rear compartment of the tank truck.
14. Speidel prepared and signed a Cloverland form delivery
receipt specifying the amount of milk received from Martin and
prepared and signed a DMS form delivery receipt specifying the
amount of milk picked up from each DMS producer, to be
delivered with the milk to the dairy plant receiving the milk.
15. Clouse Trucking delivered the Cloverland Milk and DMS
Milk to the Lehigh Valley Dairy (hereinafter "LVD") processing
plant in Schuylkill Haven, Schuylkill County, Pennsylvania and
presented the delivery receipts.
19. LVD employs individuals certified to perform presumptive
tests for antibiotics and operates a laboratory at Schuylkill Haven,
Pennsylvania (hereinafter "LVD Lab") certified to conduct
confirmatory tests for antibiotics.
20. An LVD employee performed a presumptive test on a
sample of the co-mingled DMS and Cloverland milk from the rear
compartment of the Clouse Truck, The presumptive test showed a
positive result.
21. The LVD Lab then performed a confirmatory test on a
sample of the co-mingled DMS and Cloverland milk from the rear
compartment of the Clouse tank truck. The confirmatory test also
showed a positive result.
23. LVD Lab then tested each individual producer sample of
the producers whose milk was contained in the rear compartment,
and the Martin producer sample was determined to be the source of
the antibiotic residue.
33. The Clouse truck with the Condemned Milk returned to a
Clouse Trucking facility.
36. Fox and/or Clouse created a new delivery receipt for the
Cloverland Milk which did not contain the language that LVD
placed on the original Cloverland delivery receipt indicating that
the milk was rejected because of antibiotics, and Fox and/or
Clouse forged the signature of Speidel who had picked up the milk
from Martin (hereinafter "Fictitious Cloverland Receipt").
37. Fox and/or Clouse also created a new delivery receipt for
the DMS Milk which had been commingled with the contaminated
Cloverland Milk, which new receipt did not disclose that both the
front and rear tank compartments had been filled with producer
milk as had been indicated on the original delivery receipt and Fox
and/or Clouse forged the signature of Speidel who had picked up
the DMS Milk from producers (hereinafter "Fictitious DMS
Receipt").
38. At some time, Clouse and Fox removed the LVD seal on
the lid of the rear compartment of the tank truck and removed the
antibiotics tag placed there by LVD.
40. Later on August 6, 2001, a representative of Clouse
Trucking contacted LOL [Land O'Lakes] and requested LOL Lab
to test two producer samples for antibiotics.
41. Later on August 6, 2001, Fox delivered to the LOL Lab
raw milk identified as producer samples number 1002 purportedly
from Dan Martin and number 10 12 from Joel Martin. Both
samples tested negative for antibiotics.
42. Later on August 6, 2001, Clouse contacted LOL and
requested approval to deliver a load of raw milk to the Holly Plant.
Clouse further represented that the producer samples which were
brought to LOL by Fox earlier in the evening represented the same
raw milk on the truck.
43. Despite knowledge that under the PMO the Condemned
Milk could not be used for human consumption, Fox and/or Clouse
without any authorization from DMS, directed that the Condemned
Milk be delivered to the LOL Holly Plant.
44. Clouse and/or Fox directed the driver of the truck
delivering the Condemned Milk to present the Fictitious
Cloverland and DMS Receipts to LOL.
45. At approximately 11:30 p.m. on August 6, 2001, the Clouse
Trucking tank truck driven by a Clouse Trucking employee with
29,506 pounds of the Condemned Milk was received at the LOL
Holly Plant, and the Fictitious Cloverland and DMS Receipts
which had been manufactured by Clouse, Fox, Cloverland and/or
Clouse Trucking were provided to LOL.
47. LOL Lab personnel specifically asked Clouse if there was
any reason not to take the milk, and he responded that there was
not.
49. At no time did Fox, Clouse or any representative of Clouse
Trucking or Cloverland advise LOL that the Condemned Milk had
previously failed a confirmatory antibiotics test.
50. Based upon the statements of Clouse and Fox as
aforementioned, the Fictitious Cloverland Receipt and the
Fictitious DMS Receipt, and the testing which was performed,
LOL received 29,506 pounds of Condemned Milk from the Clouse
Trucking truck.
51. The 29,506 pounds of Condemned Milk from the Clouse
Trucking tank truck was pumped into a LOL raw milk storage silo
and commingled with 454,854 pounds of milk from other
producers.
51 The delivery of the Condemned Milk by Cloverland and/or
Clouse Trucking constituted a sale of the Condemned Milk by
Cloverland to LOL.
53. On August 7, 2001, the Pennsylvania Department of
Agriculture notified LOL that the milk in the Clouse Trucking tank
truck, the Condemned Milk, which had been received by LOL the
previous day, had previously failed both a presumptive
confirmatory antibiotics test and could not be used for dairy
products for human consumption, and further advised that any raw
milk with which the Condemned Milk had been commingled could
not be used for human consumption.
54. LOL was required to destroy the 484,360 pounds of milk in
the raw milk storage silo into which the Condemned Milk has been
pumped, or to dispose of it for uses other than human
consumption.
(See Exhibit "B").
12. As a result of these factual allegations, plaintiffs asserted 12 causes of action, seven of
which ware directed at Clouse Trucking and J. Edward Clouse: namely (1) Count VI- fraudulent
misrepresentation, (2) Count VII- vicarious liability, (3) Count VIII- negligent misrepresentation,
(4) Count IX- vicarious liability, (5) Count X- negligence, (6) Count XI- breach of contract
implied in fact or in law, and (7) Count XII- negligence. (See Exhibit "B").
COUNT I - DECLARATORY JUDGMENT
13. Plaintiff incorporates by reference paragraphs 1 through 12 as though fully set
forth at length herein.
14. At all material times, the United National policy of commercial automobile
liability insurance provided coverage pursuant to the following coverage grant:
A. COVERAGE
We will pay all sums and "insured" legally must pay as damages
because of "bodily injury" or "property damage" to which this
insurance applies, caused by an "accident" and resulting from the
ownership, maintenance or use of a covered "auto".
(See Exhibit "A", Bates No. 0047).
15. At all material times, the policy contained and exclusion for "'bodily injury' or
'property damage' expected or intended from the standpoint of the 'insured'." (See Exhibit "A",
Bates No. 0049, Exclusion 1).
16. At all material times the policy included the following exclusion to: "'property
damage' to or 'covered pollution cost or expense' involving property owned or transported by this
'insured' or in the 'insured's' care, custody or control. But this exclusion does not apply to
liability assumed under a side track agreement."' (See Exhibit "A", Bates No. 0049, Exclusion 6).
17. There is no coverage provided by the United National policy for Count VI of the
complaint in the underlying action alleging fraudulent misrepresentation as the allegations allege
neither an "accident" or injury resulting from the ownership, maintenance or use of a covered
"auto".
18. Further, there is no coverage as the allegations of fraudulent misrepresentation fall
within the terms of the exclusion for bodily injury or property damage expected or intended from
the standpoint of the insured.
19. There is no coverage for Count VII of the complaint in the underlying action for
vicarious liability against Clouse Trucking as the Count does not allege an accident or any bodily
injury or property damage arising out of the ownership, maintenance or use of a covered auto.
20. There is no coverage for Count VIII of the complaint in the underlying action,
alleging negligent misrepresentation against Clouse Trucking, as the Count does not allege an
accident or any bodily injury or property damage arising out of the ownership, maintenance or
use of a covered auto.
20. There is no coverage for Count IX of the complaint in the underlying action for
the vicarious liability of Clouse Trucking as the Count does not allege an accident or any bodily
injury or property damage arising out of the ownership, maintenance or use of a covered auto.
21. Count X of the complaint in the underlying action alleges negligence against
Clouse Trucking, contending that Clouse Trucking had a duty to notify Land O' Lakes that the
milk delivered could not be used for human consumption and a duty not to cause to be delivered
to Land O' Lakes raw milk that could not be used for human consumption. (See Exhibit "B",
¶1121-22).
22. The complaint in the underlying action alleges that Clouse Trucking breached
those duties by delivering milk that was not suitable for human consumption and failing to notify
Land O' Lakes that it was delivering milk not suitable for human consumption. (See Exhibit "B",
¶¶123-24).
23. There is no coverage for Count X because the allegations of negligence do not
arise out of the maintenance, use or operation of a covered "auto" and any property damage falls
within the exclusion for property in the care, custody or control of an insured, Exclusion 6.
24. There is no coverage for Count XI of the complaint in the underlying action,
alleging breach of contract implied in fact or in law, because breach of contract does not
constitute an accident, the policy contains an exclusion for contractual liability, the implied
contract concerns property in the care, custody and control of the insured, and the injury does not
arise out of the maintenance, use or operation of a covered auto.
25. Count XII alleges negligence against Clouse Trucking for breaching its duty not
to contaminate the milk of Dairy Marketing Services by commingling the DMS milk with
unsanitary milk.
26. There is no obligation to provide coverage for this negligence as it does not arise
out of the maintenance, use, or operation of a covered "auto", and any property damage falls
within the exclusion for property in the care, custody or control of an insured, Exclusion 6.
WHEREFORE, plaintiff, United National Insurance Company respectfully requests
judgment in its favor and a declaration issued by this Honorable Court:
A. Declaring that the claims made against Clouse Trucking in the underling action do
not arise out of the maintenance, use or operation of a covered auto.
B. Declaring that the claims made against Clouse Trucking in the underling action
fall within the exclusion for any property damage for property in the care, custody or control of
an insured.
C. Declaring that United National Insurance Company owes no obligation to
continue defending Clouse Trucking, Inc. in the underlying action;
D. Declaring that United National shall be reimbursed its defense costs from the date
of tender by the party responsible for the defense, and;
E. Granting any other such relief available which this court finds plaintiff justly
entitled.

We will also pay all sums an "insured" legally
must pay as a "covered pollution cost or expense"
to which this insurance applies, caused by an
"accident" and resulting from the ownership,

"property damage" to which this insurance applies
that is caused by the same "accident":
We have the right and duty to defend any
"insured" against a"suit asking for such damages
or a "covered pollution cost or expense". How-
ever, we have no duty to defend any "insured"
against a "suit" seeking damages for "bodily in-
jury" or "property damage" or a "covered pollution
cost or expense" to which this insurance does not
apply. We may investigate and settle any claim or
"suit" as we consider appropriate. Our duty to de-
fend or settle ends when the Liability Coverage

ment of judgments or settlements.

surance.

ance form that insures on a primary ba-
sis the owners of the "autos" and their
agents and employees while the "autos"
are being used exclusively in the
"truckers" business and pursuant to op-
erating rights granted to the "trucker" by
a public authority.
b. Any rail, water or air carrier or its employ-
ees or agents, other than you and your

"property damage" occurs while the "trailer"
is detached from a covered "auto" you are
using and:
(1) Is being transported by the carrier; or
(2) Is being loaded on or unloaded from any
unit of transportation by the carrier.

have paid, offered to pay or deposited
in court the part of the judgment that is

b. Out-of-State Coverage Extensions.
White a covered "auto" is away from the
stale where it is licensed we will
(1) Increase the Limit of Insurance for Li-
ability Coverage to meet the limit speci-
fied by a compulsory or financial re-
sponsibility law of the jurisdiction where
the covered "auto" is being used. This
extension does not apply to the limit or
limits specified by any law governing
motor carriers of passengers or prop-
erty.
(2) Provide the minimum amounts and
types of other coverages, such as no-
fault, required of out-of-state vehicles
by the jurisdiction where the covered
"auto" is being used.

the same elements of loss because of
these extensions.

4. NO BENEFIT TO BAILEE - PHYSICAL

We will not recognize any assignment or grant

5. OTHER INSURANCE - PRIMARY AND
EXCESS INSURANCE PROVISIONS
a. This Coverage Form's Liability Coverage is
primary for any covered "auto" while hired
or borrowed by you and used exclusively in
your business as a "trucker" and pursuant
to operating rights granted to you by a pub-
lic authority. This Coverage Form's Liability
Coverage is excess over any other col-
lectible insurance for any covered "auto"
while hired or borrowed from you by an-
other "trucker". However, while a covered
"auto" which is a "trailer" is connected to a
power unit, this Coverage Form's Liability
Coverage is:
(1) On the same basis, primary or excess,
as for the power unit if the power unit is
a covered "auto".
(2) Excess if the power unit is not a cov-
ered "auto".
b. Any Trailer Interchange Coverage provided
by this Coverage Form is primary for any
covered "auto".
c. Except as provided in paragraphs a. and b.
above, this Coverage Form provides pri-
mary insurance for any covered "auto" you
own and excess insurance for any covered
"auto" you don't own.
d. For Hired Auto Physical Damage coverage,
any covered "auto" you lease, hire, rent or
borrow is deemed to be a covered "auto"
you own. However, any "auto" that is
leased, hired, rented or borrowed with a
driver is not a covered "auto".
e. Regardless of the provisions of paragraphs
a., b, and c. above, this Coverage Form's
Liability Coverage is primary for any liabil-
ity assumed under an "insured contract".
f. When this Coverage form and any other
Coverage Form or policy covers on the
same basis, either excess or primary, we
will pay only our share. Our share is the
proportion that the Limit of Insurance of our
Coverage Form bears to the total of the
limits of all the Coverage Forms and poli-
cies covering on the same basis.
6. PREMIUM AUDIT
a. The estimated premium for this Coverage
Form is based on the exposures you told us
you have when this policy began. We will
compute the final premium due when we
determine your actual exposures. The es-
timated total premium will be credited
against the final premium due and the first
Named Insured will be billed for the bal-
ance, if any. If the estimated total premium
exceeds the final premium due, the first
Named Insured will get a refund.
b. If this policy is issued for more than one
year, the premium for this Coverage Form
will be computed annually based on our
rates or premiums in effect at the beginning
of each year of the policy.
T. POLICY PERIOD, COVERAGE TERRITORY
Under this Coverage Form, we cover
"accidents" and "losses" occurring:
a. During the policy period shown in the Dec-
larations; and
b. Within the coverage territory.
The coverage territory is:
a. The United States of America;
b. The territories and possessions of the
United States of America;
c. Puerto Rico; and
d. Canada.
We also cover "loss" to, or "accidents" involv-
ing, a covered "auto" while being transported
between any of these places.
8. TWO OR MORE COVERAGE FORMS OR
POLICIES ISSUED BY US
If this Coverage Form and any other Coverage
Form or policy issued to you by us or any
company affiliated with us apply to the same
"accident", the aggregate maximum Limit of
Insurance under all the Coverage Forms or
policies shall not exceed the highest applicable
Limit of Insurance under any one Coverage
Form or policy. This condition does not apply
to any Coverage Form or policy issued by us
or an affiliated company specifically to apply
as excess insurance over this Coverage Form.

dairy plants.
10. At all times relevant to the within cause of actions, DMS marketed milk of
producers, including certain producers located in Pennsylvania ("DMS Producers"), and engaged
Clouse Trucking to pick up raw milk from producers and deliver the raw milk to dairy plants.
11. All Defendants knew or should have known that for a period of time immediately

in Martin's raw milk.
12. On or about August 6, 2001, L. E. Speidel (hereinafter "Speidel'), an employee of

milk from the farm tanks of the DMS Producers (hereinafter "DMS Milk") and also took

to the dairy plant receiving the milk.

15. Clouse Trucking delivered the Cloverland Milk and DMS Milk to the Lehigh
Valley Dairy (hereinafter "LVD') processing plant in Schuylldll Haven, Schuylkill County,
Pennsylvania and presented the delivery receipts.
16. Milk received at dairy plants in Pennsylvania must be tested in accordance with
procedures set forth in the "Grade A Pasteurized Milk Ordinance" published by the United States
Department of Health and Human Services, Public Health Service, Food and Drug
Administration (WO"), in particular as set forth in Appendix 'W' of the PMO (hereinafter
Appendix' N"), for the presence of antibiotics above acceptable levels.
17. The antibiotics testing required by the PMO may be done in two steps:
a) A presumptive test is initially performed by an industry analyst certified to
conduct such test. If such test indicates a negative result (acceptable levels of or no antibiotics),
the milk may be received for processing into dairy products for human consumption;
b) If the presumptive test is positive (unacceptable levels of antibiotics), then
a more sensitive "confirmatory" test is conducted by a laboratory certified to perform such a
confirmatory test. If such confirmatory test indicates a negative result, the milk may be received
and processed into a dairy product for human consumption.
18. If both a presumptive and confirmatory test show a positive result, the milk cannot
be used for human consumption, regardless of further testing, and must be rejected by the dairy
plant.
19. LIM employs individuals certified to perform presumptive tests for antibiotics
and operates a laboratory at Schuylkill Haven, Pennsylvania (hereinafter "LVD Lab") certified to
conduct confirmatory tests for antibiotics.

20. An LVD employee performed a presumptive test on a sample of the co-mingled
DMS and Cloverland milk from the rear compartment of the Clouse tank truck. The presumptive
test showed a positive result.
21. The LVD Lab then performed a confirmatory test on a sample of the co-mingled
DMS and Cloverland milk from the rear compartment of the Clouse tank truck. The
confirmatory test also showed a positive result.
22. In accordance with the PMO, all the milk from the rear compartment of the Clouse
tank truck, the Cloverland Mille and the DMS Milk, was rejected by LVD as not fit to be used for
dairy products for human consumption (hereinafter the "Condemned Milk").
23. LVD Lab then tested each individual producer sample of the producers whose
milk was contained in the rear compartment, and the Martin producer sample was determined to
be the source of the antibiotic residue.
24. LVD Lab personnel placed metal seals on both openings to the compartment of
the tank truck which contained the Condemned Milk.
25. LVD Lab personnel placed a tag on the tank truck which stated: "REJECTED
REAR COMP POSITIVE ANTIBIOTICS. TUSCANILEHIGH DAIRIES SCHUYLKILL
HAVEN, PA, AUGUST 6,2001."
26. LVD Lab personnel advised the Clouse driver that the Condemned Milk was
condemned and must be dumped.
27. LVD Lab personnel wrote on the delivery receipt for the Cloverland Milk: "Rear
Compartment Rejected due to Antibiotics. Front Compartment Received."
28. LVD Lab personnel retained the producer samples of the Condemned Milk.

29, LVD Lab personnel forwarded reports of the presumptive and confirmatory tests
of the Condemned Milk to the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture, Division of Milk
Sanitation.
30. LVD Lab personnel notified DMS by telephone of the rejected load and identified
the source of the antibiotic residue as a Cloverland producer.
31. Dairy industry custom and practice common -throughout Pennsylvania and
Maryland is that the Dairy handier of a producer whose milk causes a co-mingled load to be
rejected is responsible for the disposition of the Condemned Milk. Accordingly, Cloverland, as
the handler purchasing the milk of Martin, was responsible for disposition of the Condemned
Milk.
32. DMS called Clouse Trucking and advised Clouse Trucking to contact Cloverland
to arrange for the disposition of the Condemned Milk.
33. The Clouse truck with the Condemned Milk returned to a Clouse Trucking
facility.
34. At all times relevant to the within cause of action, Clouse was familiar with the
requirements of the PMO, including the provisions of Appendix 'W, and Clouse was further
aware that the LOL Holly Plant processed raw milk for dairy products to be used for human
consumption.
35. At all times relevant to the within cause of action, Fox was familiar with the
requirements of the PMO, including the provisions of Appendix 'W', and Fox was further aware
that the LOL Holly Plant, processed raw milk for dairy products to be used for human
consumption.

36. Fox and/or Clouse created a new delivery receipt for the Cloverland Mills which
did not contain the language that LVD placed on the original Cloverland delivery receipt
indicating that the milk was rejected because of antibiotics, and Fox and/or Clouse forged the
signature of Speidel who had picked up the milk from Martin (hereinafter "Fictitious Cloverland
Receipt").
37. Fox and/or Clouse also created a new delivery receipt for the DMS Milk which
had been commingled with the contaminated Cloverland Milk, which new receipt did not
disclose that both the front and rear tank compartments had been filled with producer milk as had
been indicated on the original delivery receipt and Fox and/or Clouse forged the signature of
Speidel who had picked up the DMS Milk from producers (hereinafter "Fictitious DMS
Receipt).
38. Ai some time, Clouse and Fox removed the LVD seal on the lid of the rear
compartment of the tank truck and removed the antibiotics tag placed there by LVD.
39. LOL employs individuals certified to perform presumptive tests for antibiotics and
operates a laboratory (hereinafter "LOL Lab") which is certified to conduct confirmatory tests.
40. Later on August 6, 2001, a representative of Clouse Trucking contacted LOL and
requested the LOL Lab to test two producer samples for antibiotics.
41. Later on August 6, 2001, Fox delivered to the LOL Lab raw milk identified as

43. Despite knowledge that under the PMO the Condemned Milk could not be used
for human consumption, Fox and/or Clouse without any authorization from DMS, directed that
the Condemned Milk be delivered to the LOL Holly Plant.
44. Clouse and/or Fox directed the driver of the truck delivering the Condemned Milk
to present the Fictitious Cloverland and DMS Receipts to LOL.
45. At approximately 11:30 p.m. on August 6, 2001, the Clouse Trucking tank truck
driven by a Clouse Trucking employee with 29,506 pounds of the Condemned Milk was
received at the LOL Holly Plant, and the Fictitious Cloverland and DMS Receipts which had
been manufactured by Clouse, Fox, Cloverland and/or Clouse Trucking were provided to LOL.
46. The LOL Lab frequently receives sealed tank truck loads for confirmatory testing
which had previously tested positive for antibiotics in a presumptive test conducted by an
industry analyst at a plant not certified to do the confirmatory tests.
47. LOL Lab personnel specifically asked Clouse if there was any reason not to take
the milk, and he responded that there was not.
48. The LOL Lab performed a confirmatory test on the milk which showed a negative
result.
49.. At no time did Fox, Clouse or any representative of Clouse Trucking or
Cloverland advise LOL that the Condemned Milk had previously failed a confirmatory
antibiotics test.

50. Based upon the statements of Clouse and Fox as aforementioned, the Fictitious
Cloverland Receipt and the Fictitious DMS Receipt, and the testing which was performed, LOL
received 29,506 pounds of Condemned Milk from the Clouse Trucking truck.
51. The 29,506 pounds of Condemned Milk from the Clouse Trucking tank truck was

9 result. But:

ance.

to the "suit", we will defend that indemnitee if all of
the following conditions are met:
a. The "suit" against the indemnitee seeks dam-

b. This insurance applies to such liability assumed
by the insured;
c. The obligation to defend, or the cost of the de-
fense of, that indemnitee, has also been as-
sumed by the insured in the same -insured

plementary Payments. Notwithstanding the pro-

and to pay for attorneys fees and necessary liti-
gation expenses as Supplementary Payments ends
when:

d. No insured will, except at that insured's own
cost, voluntarily make a payment, assume
any obligation, or incur any expense, other

3. Legal Action Against Us

Coverage Part:
a. To join us as a party or otherwise bring us
into a 'suit' asking for damages from an in-
sured; or
b. To sue us on this Coverage Part unless all of
its terms have been fully complied with.
A person or organization may sue us to recover
on an agreed settlement or on a final judgment
against an insured obtained after an actual trial;
but we will not be liable for damages that are not
payable under the terms of this Coverage Part
or that are in excess of the applicable limit of
insurance. An agreed settlement , means a
settlement and release of liability signed by us,
the insured and the claimant or the claimant's
legal representative.
4. Other Insurance
If other valid and collectible insurance is avail-
able to the insured for a loss we cover under
Coverages A or B of this Coverage Part, our ob-
ligations are limited as follows:
a. Primary Insurance
This insurance is primary except when b, be-
low applies. If this insurance is primary, our
obligations are not affected unless any of the
other insurance is also primary. Then, we will
share with all that other insurance by the
method described in c. below.
b. Excess Insurance
This insurance is excess over any of the other
insurance, whether primary, excess, contin-
gent or on any other basis:
(1) That is Fire, Extended Coverage, Builder's
Risk, Installation Risk or similar coverage
for "your work';
(2) That is Fire insurance for premises rented
to you or temporarily occupied by you with
permission of the owner; or
(3) If the loss arises out of the maintenance
or use of aircraft, 'autos' or watercraft to
the extent not subject to Exclusion g. of
Coverage A (Section I),
When this insurance is excess, we will have
no duty under Coverages A or B to defend the
insured against any "suit' if any other insurer
has a duty to defend the insured against that
"suit'. If no other insurer defends, we will
undertake to do so, but we will be entitled to
the insured's rights against all those other
insurers.
When this insurance is excess over other in-
surance, we will pay only our share of the
amount of the loss, if any, that exceeds the
sum of:
(1) The total amount that all such other in-
surance would pay for the loss in the ab-
sence of this insurance; and
(2) The total of all deductible and self-insured
amounts under all that other insurance.
We will share the remaining loss, if any, with
any other insurance that is not described in
this Excess Insurance provision and was not
bought specifically to apply in excess of the
Limits of Insurance shown in the Declarations
of this Coverage Part.
c. Method of Sharing
if all of the other insurance permits contrib-
ution by equal shares, we will follow this
method also. Under this approach each
insurer contributes equal amounts until it has
paid its applicable limit of insurance or none
of the loss remains, whichever comes first.
If any of the other insurance does not permit
contribution by equal shares, we will contrib-
ute by limits. Under this method, each insur-
er's share is based on the ratio of its
applicable limit of insurance to the total ap-
plicable limits of insurance of all insurers.
CG 00 01 01 96 Copyright, Insurance Services Office, Inc., 1994 Page 9 of 13, ?

age Part in accordance with our rules and
rates.
b. Premium shown in this Coverage Part as ad-
vance premium is a deposit premium only.
At the close of each audit period we will
compute the earned premium for that period.
Audit premiums are due and payable on no-

the advance and audit premiums paid for the
policy period is greater than the earned pre-
mium, we will return the excess to the first
Named Insured.
c. The first Named insured must keep records
of the information we need for premium
computation, and send us copies at such
times as we may request.

a. The statements in the Declarations are accu-
rate and complete;
b. Those statements are based upon represen-
tations you made to us; and
c. We have issued this policy in reliance upon
your representations.
7. Separation Of Insureds
Except with respect to the Limits of Insurance,
and any rights or duties specifically assigned in
this Coverage Part to the first Named Insured,
this insurance applies:
a. As if each Named Insured were the only
Named Insured; and
b. Separately to each insured against whom
claim is made or "suit" is brought.
8. Transfer Of Rights Of Recovery Against Others
To Us
If the insured has rights to recover all or part of
any payment we have made under this Coverage
Part, those rights are transferred to us. The in-
sured must do nothing after loss to impair them.
At our request, the insured will bring "suit" or
transfer those rights to us and help us enforce
them.
9. When We Do Not Renew
If we decide not to renew this Coverage Part, we
will mail or deliver to the first Named Insured
shown in the Declarations written notice of the
nonrenewal not less than 30 days before the ex-
