caused by fire or other perils covered by this separate property insurance but only those rights
specified according to the terms of Subparagraph 11.3.7. All separate policies that are not by way
of self insurance by the Board shall provide this waiver of subrogation by endorsement or otherwise.
11.3.6 Before an exposure to loss may occur, the Board shall file with the Contractor a certificate
of insurance evidencing such insurance coverages optionally obtained by this Paragraph 11.3. Each
such policy shall contain all generally applicable conditions, definitions, exclusions and
