# BLENDED POLLUTION EXCLUSION

prescribed shall not invalidate any claim made by an insured if it shall be shown not to have been reasonably possible to give such notice within the prescribed time and that notice was given as soon as was reasonably possible.

(v) "Bodily injury" or "property damage" arising out of the actual discharge, dispersal, seepage, migration, release or escape of "pollutants" that results directly from the violent breaking open or explosion of any plant, building, equipment other than underground tanks, underground piping, or underground equipment, for which the named insured has legal responsibility, either as owner or operator caused by perils other than those listed in (iv) above, provided that:

1. Such pollution commences during the term of this policy;
2. An insured discovers the commencement of such pollution no later than twenty (20) calendar days after it commences; and
3. The insured reports the commencement of such pollution to us in writing no later than eighty (80) days following its discovery by an insured. However, failure to give notice within the time prescribed shall not invalidate any claim made by an insured if it shall be shown not to have been reasonably possible to give such notice within the prescribed time and that notice was given as soon as was reasonably possible.

(b) At or from any premises, site or location which is or was at any time used by or for any insured or others for the handling, storage, disposal, processing or treatment of waste;

(c) Which are or were at any time transported, handled, stored, treated, disposed of, or processed as waste by or for any insured or any person or organization for whom you may be legally responsible; or

(d) At or from any premises, site or location on which any insured or any contractors or subcontractors working directly or indirectly on any insured's behalf are performing operations if the "pollutants" are brought on or to the premises, site or location in connection with such operations by such insured, contractor or subcontractor. However, this subparagraph does not apply to:

(i) "Bodily injury" or "property damage" arising out of the escape of fuels, lubricants or other operating fluids which are needed to perform the normal, electrical, hydraulic or mechanical functions necessary for the operation of "mobile equipment" or its parts, if such fuels, lubricants or other operating fluids escape from a vehicle part designed to hold, store or receive them. This exception does not apply if the "bodily injury" or "property damage" arises out of the intentional discharge, dispersal or release of the fuels, lubricants or other operating fluids, or if such fuels, lubricants or other operating fluids are brought on or to the premises, site or location with the intent that they be discharged or released as part of the operations being performed by such insured, contractor or subcontractor;
