select counsel of its choice (subject to the right of the Insured to
object for reasonable cause) to represent the Insured as to those
stated causes of action. It shall not be liable for and will not pay

damage to the Insured. The Company may take any appropriate
action under the terms of this policy, whether or not d shall be
liable to the Insured. The exercise of these rights shall not be an
admission of liability or waiver of any provision of this policy.

as required or permitted by this policy, the Company may pursue

liability or obligation to defend, prosecute, or continue any litigation,
with regard to the matter or matters requiring such cooperation.

shall grant its permission, in writing, for any authorized representative
of the Company to examine, inspect, and copy all of these records

the loss or damage. All information designated as confidential by
the Insured Claimant provided to the Company pursuant to this
Section shall not be disclosed to others unless, in the reasonable
judgment of the Company, it is necessary in the administration of
the claim. Failure of the Insured Claimant to submit for examination

third parties as required in this subsection, unless prohibited by
law or governmental regulation, shall terminate any liability of the
Company under this policy as to that claim.
