- Subcontractor Insurance. Contractor shall cause each of its subcontractors to purchase and maintain insurance of the type specified herein. When requested by Hawaiian, Contractor shall furnish Certificates of Insurance evidencing the insurance requirements in this Section.
- No Representation of Coverage Adequacy. By requiring insurance herein, Hawaiian does not represent that coverage and limits will necessarily be adequate to protect Contractor, and such coverage and limits shall not be deemed as a limitation of Contractor’s liability under the indemnities granted to Hawaiian in this contract.
- Insurance Coverage.

As a condition to requesting prior written approval, Contractor must provide a written copy of any such proposed assignment or subcontract to Hawaiian. Hawaiian’s consent to the assignment, subcontract, or transfer shall not, under any circumstance, relieve the Contractor of the Contractor's obligation and liability under the Contract. Any assignment or subcontract in contravention of this Section will be null and void. In addition, all goods and/or services subcontracted shall be at the same standard as provided by Contractor, and at Hawaiian’s sole discretion, Hawaiian reserves the right to terminate any work subcontracted by Contractor and request Contractor to either perform the work directly or find a suitable replacement to provide similar goods or services for which Hawaiian originally contracted.

The provisions of this Section shall survive termination of the Contract.
- CHANGE OF CONTROL. Contractor shall provide Hawaiian with written notice in the event of a change of ownership or control of Contractor. A change of ownership or control shall mean, with respect to Contractor, a change in the ability to determine the outcome of decisions about the Contractor’s financial and operating policies and shall include, but not be limited to, a change in the majority or controlling shareholders or a merger (where Contractor is not the surviving entity). Hawaiian reserves the right to terminate the Contract upon a change of control.

In the event goods or services are held in any such action, suit or claim to be infringing, misappropriating or violating (or containing such objectionable content), and their use is enjoined or limited in any manner, Contractor shall, at Contractor’s own expense, and at Hawaiian’s option within a reasonable time, either (a) acquire for Hawaiian the right to continue use of such goods or services, (b) replace the same with non-infringing goods or services satisfactory to Hawaiian in its sole discretion, (c) modify the goods or services so they become non-infringing, without any loss of functionality, as determined by Hawaiian, in its sole discretion, or (d) remove such goods or services and refund the full purchase price and other costs incurred by Hawaiian.

At no cost, Contractor will execute such further documents and instruments as Hawaiian may reasonably request in order to fully vest such rights in Hawaiian. Contractor forever waives any and all rights relating to the Work Product, including without limitation, any and all rights arising under 17 USC 106A or any other rights of identification of authorship or rights of approval, restriction, or limitation on use or subsequent modification.
