Supplementary notes
The source adds the following information: "“ABC” D&O insurance commonly refers to D&O insurance products that cover certain: (A) non-indemnified loss of directors, officers and other insured persons, (B) loss of an entity from indemnifying its directors, officers and other insured persons, and (C) loss from an entity’s own liability (for public companies, this coverage is typically limited to Securities Claims). In contrast, Separate “Side-A” (a/k/a “Side-A only,” “dedicated Side-A” “Side-A excess” or “Side-A D-I-C”) insurance commonly refers to specialized D&O coverage only for non-indemnified loss of directors, officers and other insured persons."
