a purchaser from the insured, or only so long as the insured shall have liability by
reason of covenants of warranty made by the insured in any transfer or
conveyance of the estate or interest. This policy shall not continue in force in
favor of any purchaser from the insured of either (i) an estate or interest in the

incurred by the insured in the defense of those causes of action which allege
matters not insured against by this policy.
(b) The Company shall have the right, at its own cost, to institute and
prosecute any action or proceeding or to do any other act which in its opinion
may be necessary or desirable to establish the title to the estate or interest, as

action or proceeding, and all appeals therein, and. permit the Company to use, at
its option, the name of the insured for this purpose. Whenever requested by the
Company, the insured, at the Company's expense, shall give the Company all
reasonable aid (i) in any action or proceeding, securing evidence, obtaining
witnesses, prosecuting or defending the action or proceeding, or effecting
settlement, and (ii) in any other lawful act which in the opinion of the Company
may be necessary or desirable to establish the title to the estate or interest as
insured. If the Company is prejudiced by the failure of the insured to furnish the
required cooperation, the Company's obligations to the insured under the policy
shall terminate, including any liability or obligation to defend, prosecute, or
continue any litigation, with regard to the matter or matters requiring such

Company within 90 days after the insured claimant shall ascertain the facts
giving rise to the loss or damage. The proof of loss or damage shall describe the
defect in, or lien or encumbrance on the title, or other matter insured against by
this policy which constitutes the basis of loss or damage and shall slate, to the
extent possible, the basis of calculating the amount of the loss or damage. If the
Company is prejudiced by the failure of the insured claimant to provide the
required proof of loss or damage, the Company's obligations to the insured under
the policy shall terminate, including any liability or obligation to defend,
prosecute, or continue any litigation, with regard to the matter or matters
requiring such proof of loss or damage.

and places as may be designated by any authorized representative of 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 under oath,
produce other reasonably requested information or grant permission to secure
reasonably necessary information from third parties as required in this paragraph
shall terminate any liability of the Company under this policy as to that claim.

which the insured has agreed, assumed, or taken subject, or which is
