DSU Insurance Clause Samples

The DSU (Delay in Start Up) Insurance clause provides coverage for financial losses resulting from delays in the commencement of operations of a project, typically due to insured physical damage events during construction. This insurance compensates the project owner for lost revenue, increased costs, or other financial impacts caused by the delay, such as postponed production or service delivery. By including this clause, parties ensure that the financial risks associated with project delays are mitigated, protecting the project's economic viability and providing reassurance to lenders and stakeholders.

DSU Insurance. A. If an event or events occur that may be covered by the Builder’s Risk Delayed Startup Insurance or Marine Cargo Delayed Startup Insurance described in Attachment O, it shall be Owner’s sole option to decide whether or not a claim under such Delayed Startup Insurance is filed. If Owner gives notice to Contractor to file a claim under such Delayed Startup Insurance, Contractor shall promptly file and diligently pursue the collection of such claim on behalf of Owner, and in such case Owner shall provide to Contractor such information and assistance reasonably required for Contractor to file and pursue such claim. Contractor shall not be relieved of any Delay Liquidated Damages owed by Contractor to Owner if Owner does not elect to file a claim on such Delayed Startup Insurance, if Owner does not provide the information or assistance referenced above, or the prosecution of such claim is unsuccessful. B. Regardless whether an event or events occur that may be covered by such Delayed Startup Insurance, Contractor shall pay any Delay Liquidated Damages owed by Contractor to Owner within the time required in Section 20.3C, even if a claim has been asserted under such Delayed Startup Insurance. C. If Owner or any Lender receive proceeds under such Delayed Startup Insurance in respect to any event or events which give rise to Contractor’s delay in achieving Substantial Completion of Subproject 1 or Subproject 2 by the applicable Guaranteed Substantial Completion Dates, Owner shall pay back to Contractor Delay Liquidated Damages previously paid by Contractor to Owner for such event or events (or in the case that the Delay Liquidated Damages have not yet been paid at the time of receipt of such proceeds, Owner shall reduce Contractor’s liability for Delay Liquidated Damages for such event or events), but only to the extent that such recovery of insurance proceeds and Delay Liquidated Damages would result in a double recovery of amounts for the same loss and same time period. If any such Delay Liquidated Damages are paid back to Contractor, the amount of such Delay Liquidated Damages paid back to Contractor shall not be counted against the cap on Delay Liquidated Damages in Section 20.2.
