8. Upon payment or replacement for loss or damage, the underwriters shall be subrogated to all of the rights of the insured, including whatever money may be recoverable, but excluding any deductible amounts applied to any claim settlement on account of said loss or damage from the carrier, or any of its officers or agents, or from any other person or corporation whatsoever. The insured specifically covenants and agrees to assist the company in every possible manner to secure reimbursement of said loss or damage. In the event the carrier admits to fraudulent activity from carrier employees, the insured will take action against the carrier and not hold U-PIC responsible for claims associated.
9. No suit or action or proceedings for the recovery of any claim under this coverage shall be sustainable in any court of law or equity unless the same is commenced within 12 months after discovery by the insured of the occurrence which gives rise to the claim, provided, however, that if by the laws of the state within which this coverage is issued such limitation is invalid, then any such claim shall be void unless such action, suit or proceeding be commenced within the shortest limit to time permitted by the laws of such state to be fixed herein.
10. This policy may be cancelled at any time at the request of the insured or underwriters by giving 15 days written notice thereof, provided that such cancellation shall not affect any shipment already made.
