Plaintiff New York University (NYU) brought this suit against its insurer Factory Mutual Insurance Company (FM) after FM provided less than all of the coverage that NYU claims it was due under its insurance policy ("the Policy") for losses sustained when Superstorm Sandy struck New York City on October 29, 2012. NYU advanced five claims for declaratory relief, seeking to define certain relevant provisions of the Policy, and an additional claim for breach of contract based on FM's allegedly wrongful denial of coverage. In response to NYU's complaint, FM filed two counterclaims, seeking a declaratory judgment or, alternatively, reformation of the contract.
Before the Court are FM's motion for summary judgment and NYU's cross-motion for partial summary judgment. For the reasons set forth below, FM's motion is granted in all material respects, while NYU's motion is denied in its entirety.
I. Background
The facts and procedural course of this case are set out in great detail in the Court's March 27, 2018 Memorandum and Order denying NYU's motion for leave to amend its complaint. See New York Univ. v. Factory Mut. Ins. Co., No. 15 CIV. 8505 (NRB), 2018 WL 1737745 (S.D.N.Y. Mar. 27, 2018). Relying on that lengthy opinion for a basic recounting of the case, this opinion provides only that background information needed to understand the resolution of the pending motions.
A. Facts
1. The Policy
The Policy, which is the focus of this dispute, was effective from July 1, 2011 through July 1, 2013. It generally insured NYU against physical loss or damage to certain real and personal property, subject to an overall coverage limit of $ 1.85 billion and other specified limits of liability and exclusions.
Beyond covering physical loss or damage itself, the Policy provided coverage for associated time element losses. Such losses, "[s]ometimes known as business interruption loss[es]," are "loss[es] resulting from the [insured's] inability to put damaged property to its normal use." ECF No. 113 at 5 n.17 (internal quotation marks omitted); accord ECF No. 129 at 2, 6. Specifically, the Policy's "Time Element Coverages" granted NYU "the option to make [a] claim" for either lost gross earnings or lost gross profits "directly resulting from physical loss or damage of the type insured" under the Policy. ECF No. 116, Ex. 7 at NYU033551-033552. The Policy also contained certain "Time Element Coverage Extensions," which granted coverage for time element losses resulting from, inter alia, "the interruption of incoming *319[or outgoing]" utility services, "an order of [a] civil or military authority prohibit[ing] access to [an] insured location provided such order is the direct result of physical damage of the type insured," or "the failure of the Insured's electronic data processing equipment or media to operate, provided that such failure is the direct result of a malicious act directed at the [insured]." Id. at NYU033562 et seq. Under the express terms of the Policy, however, recovery for "TIME ELEMENT loss as provided in the TIME ELEMENT COVERAGES and TIME ELEMENT COVERAGE EXTENSIONS ... is subject to the applicable limit of liability that applies to the insured physical loss or damage but in no event [can it be] for more than any limit of liability that is stated as applying to the specific TIME ELEMENT COVERAGE and/or TIME ELEMENT COVERAGE EXTENSION." Id. at NYU033551.
In addition to its general coverage of physical loss or damage and (to the extent applicable) associated time element losses, the Policy provided certain "Additional Coverages," including coverage for (1) "accidental interruption of services," defined to be "physical damage resulting from changes in temperature or relative humidity ... when such changes in temperature or relative humidity result from the interruption of services consisting of electricity, gas, fuel, steam, water or refrigeration by reason of any accidental event, other than insured physical loss or damage"; (2) "debris removal"; (3) "demolition and increased cost of construction," defined to be "the reasonable and necessary costs incurred ... to satisfy the minimum requirements of the enforcement of any law or ordinance regulating the demolition, construction, repair, replacement or use of buildings, structures, machinery or equipment at an insured location"; (4) "patient and tenant relocation expense"; (5) "protection and preservation of property," defined to be "reasonable and necessary costs incurred for actions to temporarily protect or preserve insured property"; and (6) "service interruption property damage," defined as "physical loss or damage to insured property at an insured location or as MISCELLANEOUS PERSONAL PROPERTY when such physical loss or damage results from the interruption of incoming services consisting of electricity, gas, fuel, steam, water, refrigeration or from the lack of outgoing sewerage service or from the lack of transmission of incoming or outgoing voice, data or video service." Id. at NYU033528 et seq. Much like the section of the Policy addressing coverage for time element losses, the section addressing these additional coverages stated that such coverages "are subject to the applicable limit of liability" and "applicable exclusions and deductibles, ... as shown in [the additional coverages section] and elsewhere in th[e] Policy." Id. at NYU033528.
A separate section at the very beginning of the Policy -- under the heading "LIMITS OF LIABILITY" -- set forth the Policy's overall coverage limit of $ 1.85 billion and, under the sub-heading "Applicable Limits of Liability/Time Limits," a list of 52 subsidiary limits that were "part of, and not in addition to," the overall coverage limit. Id. at NYU033511 et seq. For example, the Policy provided a limit of liability of "USD5,000,000 in the aggregate during any policy year" for loss attributable to "TERRORISM." Id. at NYU033514. Of particular relevance here, the Policy included a limit of liability for loss attributable to "flood," expressed in the Policy as follows:
USD250,000,000 in the aggregate during any policy year, but not to exceed a USD40,000,000 limit in the aggregate during any policy year for property located *320at the NYU Hospital Center and School of Medicine located at 550-580 First Avenue, 401 & 435 E 30th Street, 317 & 400 E. 34th Street and 3010 [FDR] Drive, New York, NY in the aggregate during any policy year[.]
Id. at NYU033513. "Flood" was in turn defined in the Policy as:
flood; surface waters; rising waters; storm surge, sea surge, wave wash; waves; tsunami; tide or tidal water; the release of water, the rising, overflowing or breaking of boundaries of natural or man-made bodies of water; or the spray therefrom; all whether driven by wind or not; or sewer back-up resulting from any of the foregoing; regardless of any other cause or event, whether natural or man-made, contributing concurrently or in any other sequence of loss. Physical loss or damage from flood associated with a storm or weather disturbance whether or not identified by name by any meteorological authority, is considered to be flood within the terms of this Policy. However, physical loss or damage by fire, explosion or sprinkler leakage resulting from flood is not considered to be loss by flood within the terms and conditions of this Policy.
Id. at NYU033583.
At the top of the "LIMITS OF LIABILITY" section, prior to the "Applicable Limits of Liability" subsection, the Policy set forth the following general provisions pertaining to limits of liability:
Limits of liability in an occurrence apply to the total loss or damage at all locations and for all coverages involved, including any insured TIME ELEMENT loss, subject to the following provisions:
1) when a limit of liability applies in the aggregate during any policy year, the Company's maximum amount payable will not exceed such limit of liability during any policy year.
2) when a limit of liability applies to a location or other specified property, such limit of liability will be the maximum amount payable for all loss or damage at all locations arising from physical loss or damage at such location or to such other specified property.
Id. at NYU033511.
Finally, the Policy provided a list of specific "exclusions" from coverage. Id. at NYU033521 et seq. For example, the Policy expressly excluded coverage for "faulty workmanship," "wear and tear," and the "settling, cracking, shrinking, bulging, or expansion of ... walls." Id. at NYU033524. The Policy did, however, provide that "if physical damage not excluded by th[e] Policy results" from one of those sources, then "that resulting damage is insured." Id. (emphasis added).
2. Superstorm Sandy And Its Aftermath
On October 29, 2012, Superstorm Sandy struck New York City, causing significant damage to several NYU properties that both parties agree were covered under the Policy. The parties dispute the extent of that coverage, as well as whether (and the extent to which) "faulty workmanship" contributed to NYU's losses. ECF No. 113 at 33. But the parties agree that NYU sustained substantial time element losses as a result of the damage.1
*321The dispute that gave rise to the instant litigation primarily concerns the scope and proper application of the clause in the Policy that provides for a $ 250 million limit of liability for damage caused by flood ("the flood limit") and a subsidiary limit of $ 40 million in coverage for flood damage at certain specified locations ("the flood sublimit"). In particular, the parties disagree as to how that clause impacts the amount of coverage that is provided in the Policy for the losses that NYU sustained at (and in relation to) the complex of buildings -- all associated with NYU's hospital or medical school -- located between First Avenue, 34th Street, FDR Drive, and 30th Street in Manhattan ("the superblock").
Citing the flood sublimit, FM capped its payments to NYU for all superblock damages at $ 40 million. NYU, advancing a different interpretation of the flood sublimit and its interaction with other provisions in the Policy, claimed entitlement to substantially more money -- potentially extending to the overall coverage limit of $ 1.85 billion. With the parties unable to reach an agreement, NYU initiated this suit.
B. Procedural History
On October 29, 2015, NYU filed the operative initial complaint, asserting six causes of action against FM. Five seek declaratory relief, including declarations that (1) the flood sublimit applies only to those buildings within the address range specified in the sublimit ("550-580 First Avenue, 401 & 435 E 30th Street, 317 & 400 E. 34th Street and 3010 [FDR] Drive, New York, NY"), rather than to all of the buildings located on the superblock; (2) the flood limit does not apply to time element losses; (3) the flood sublimit does not apply to time element losses; (4) the flood sublimit does not apply to additional coverages and time element coverage extensions; and (5) the coverage limits for flood damage do not apply to damage that would not have occurred but for faulty workmanship. NYU's sixth cause of action -- for breach of contract -- alleges that FM wrongfully denied NYU coverage, based on its construction of the aforementioned provisions of the Policy. FM, for its part, asserted two counterclaims, seeking (1) a declaration that the flood sublimit applies to all of the buildings located on the superblock, and (2) alternatively, reformation of the flood sublimit to the extent that it can be read as applying only to those buildings encompassed in the address range specified therein.
After more than a year of discovery, NYU moved for leave to amend its complaint, which motion was denied by the Court in a March 27, 2018 Memorandum and Order on the ground that all "of the claims that NYU [sought] to add [were] untimely and ... merit[less]," rendering amendment "futile." New York Univ., 2018 WL 1737745, at *18. Following that Memorandum and Order, the parties each filed motions for summary judgment.
FM's motion seeks summary judgment on all six of NYU's claims as well as on both of its counterclaims. NYU's cross-motion seeks summary judgment on both of FM's counterclaims as well as on all five of its claims for declaratory relief; as to its claim for breach of contract, NYU merely opposes FM's motion for summary judgment.
II. Discussion
A. Legal Standards
The following legal standards govern the Court's analysis of the pending motions.
*3221. Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 56
Summary judgment is appropriate when there is no genuine issue as to any material fact and the moving party is entitled to judgment as a matter of law. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 56(a). "A fact is material when it might affect the outcome of the suit under governing law," and "[a]n issue of fact is genuine if the evidence is such that a reasonable jury could return a verdict for the nonmoving party." McCarthy v. Dun & Bradstreet Corp., 482 F.3d 184, 202 (2d Cir. 2007) (emphasis added) (internal quotation marks omitted). On a motion for summary judgment, "[t]he moving party bears the initial burden of demonstrating the absence of a genuine issue of material fact[,] [and] [w]here the moving party meets that burden, the opposing party must come forward with specific evidence demonstrating the existence of a genuine dispute of material fact." F.D.I.C. v. Great Am. Ins. Co., 607 F.3d 288, 292 (2d Cir. 2010) (internal quotation marks and citation omitted). "To defeat a summary judgment motion, the non-moving party must do more than simply show that there is some metaphysical doubt as to the material facts, and [it] may not rely on conclusory allegations or unsubstantiated speculation." Id. (internal quotation marks and citation omitted). "Where it is clear that no rational finder of fact could find in favor of the nonmoving party because the evidence to support its case is so slight, summary judgment should be granted." Id. (internal quotation marks omitted).
"The same standard ... applies when," as here, "the court is faced with cross-motions for summary judgment. Each party's motion must be reviewed on its own merits, and the Court must draw all reasonable inferences against the party whose motion is under consideration." Bell v. Pham, No. 09 CIV. 1699 PACRLE, 2011 WL 1142857, at *2 (S.D.N.Y. Mar. 24, 2011) (citing Morales v. Quintel Entm't, Inc., 249 F.3d 115, 121 (2d Cir. 2001) ).
2. Rules of Insurance Policy Interpterion
"In New York, 'insurance policies are interpreted according to general rules of contract interpretation.' "2 Am. Commercial Lines LLC v. Water Quality Ins. Syndicate, 679 F. App'x 11, 13-14 (2d Cir. 2017) (quoting Olin Corp. v. Am. Home Assurance Co., 704 F.3d 89, 98 (2d Cir. 2012) ). "[T]he initial interpretation of a contract [in New York] is a matter of law for the court to decide." VKK Corp. v. Nat'l Football League, 244 F.3d 114, 129 (2d Cir. 2001) (internal quotation marks omitted). "Included in this initial interpretation is the threshold question of whether the terms of the contract are ambiguous." Id."[I]f the contract is capable of only one reasonable interpretation, i.e. , [if it] is unambiguous, [the Court is] required to give effect to the contract as written." Id. (alteration in original) (internal quotation marks omitted); see also Brad H. v. City of New York, 17 N.Y.3d 180, 185, 928 N.Y.S.2d 221, 951 N.E.2d 743 (2011) ("A written agreement that is clear, complete and subject to only one reasonable interpretation must be enforced according to the plain meaning of the language chosen by the contracting parties.").
"If, however, the court determines that a provision in [an] insurance contract is ambiguous, it may consider extrinsic evidence to discern the parties' intent at the formation of the contract." Am. Commercial Lines LLC, 679 F. App'x at 14 ; cf. Wallace v. 600 Partners Co., 86 N.Y.2d 543, 548, 634 N.Y.S.2d 669, 658 N.E.2d 715 (1995) ("The rules governing *323the construction of ambiguous contracts are not triggered unless the court first finds an ambiguity."). "An ambiguity exists where the terms of [the] insurance contract could suggest more than one meaning when viewed objectively by a reasonably intelligent person who has examined the context of the entire integrated agreement...." Int'l Multifoods Corp. v. Commercial Union Ins. Co., 309 F.3d 76, 83 (2d Cir. 2002).
B. Analysis
With the foregoing legal principles in mind, the Court next considers the parties' arguments.
1. Time Element Losses and Time Element Coverage Extensions
NYU's argument that the $ 250 million flood limit and the $ 40 million flood sublimit do not apply to time element losses, including those contemplated in the Policy's time element coverage extensions, is easily dispensed with.3 That is because the Court squarely rejected virtually the same argument in the March 27, 2018 Memorandum and Order that denied NYU's motion for leave to amend its complaint, which analyzed earlier versions of the parties' insurance contract, including one version that contained operative language identical to that contained in the contract at issue here.
Specifically, the Court's prior opinion held that language in the limits of liability section of the policy that FM issued to NYU in 2006, which immediately preceded the list of specific limits of liability included in that policy, unambiguously "subjected time element claims to the limit of liability for flood." New York Univ., 2018 WL 1737745, at *12. That language provided that the "Limits of liability stated below apply in the aggregate per occurrence for all Locations and coverages involved." Id. at *4 (internal quotation marks omitted). As the Court explained, "[t]he only reasonable interpretation of this straightforward provision is that the limit of liability for flood -- one of the '[l]imits of liability stated below' -- applies to 'all ... coverages involved,' including physical loss and time element." Id. at *10.
Rejecting the same basic arguments now advanced in NYU's summary judgment papers, the Court further explained that "[a] review of [the policy] as a whole d[id] not change th[at] conclusion." Id. at *11. In particular, the Court rejected NYU's argument, based on the expressio unius canon of construction, that since certain of the limits of liability listed in the policy "specified that they applied to both property damage and time element," the "limits of liability that did not so specify" -- such as the flood limit -- "applied only to property damage." Id. This Court reasoned as follows:
While New York law recognizes the expressio unius canon of contract construction, see, e.g., *324Sterling Inv. Servs., Inc. v. 1155 Nobo Assocs., LLC, 30 A.D.3d 579, 581 [818 N.Y.S.2d 513] (2d Dep't 2006), the inference created by the expressio unius canon cannot take precedence over the unambiguous language of the contract. Rather, consistent with the general principle that interpretive tools need not be deployed when the contract is unambiguous, expressio unius should not be applied to create ambiguity where none would otherwise exist. Cf. Banco Espirito Santo, S.A. v. Concessionaria do Rodoanel Oeste S.A., 100 A.D.3d 100, 109 [951 N.Y.S.2d 19] (1st Dep't 2012) ("[P]unctuation in a contract may serve as a guide to resolve an ambiguity that has not been created by punctuation or the absence therein, but it cannot, by itself, create ambiguity."); Rothenberg v. Lincoln Farm Camp, Inc., 755 F.2d 1017, 1020 (2d Cir. 1985) (holding that the ejusdem generis canon of construction "is not in and of itself a rule of interpretation, but merely an aid to interpretation when the intention is not otherwise apparent" (quoting Brooklyn City R.R. Co. v. Kings Cty. Tr., 214 A.D. 506, 511 [212 N.Y.S. 343] (2d Dep't 1925), aff'd mem., 242 N.Y. 531 [152 N.E. 414] (1926) ) ).
Id. (emphases in original) (footnotes omitted).
In a footnote appended to that passage, the Court distinguished Hewlett-Packard Company v. Factory Mutual Insurance Company, No. 04 CIV. 2791TPGDCF, 2007 WL 983990 (S.D.N.Y. Mar. 30, 2007), on which NYU again relies:
[T]he policy at issue in Hewlett-Packard differs materially from [NYU's 2006 policy]. While [NYU's 2006 policy] provided that "[l]imits of liability stated below apply in the aggregate per occurrence for all Locations and coverages involved," the Hewlett-Packard policy provided only that "[s]ublimits of liability stated are per occurrence unless stated otherwise and apply to a loss covered by this policy in excess of the deductible." The Hewlett-Packard court did not address the significance of this provision in applying the expressio unius canon, but the provision -- unlike the allegedly corresponding provision in [NYU's 2006 policy] -- is silent as to the coverages to which the sublimits apply. The Hewlett-Packard policy's provision that "[t]he maximum limits of liability indicated above apply blanket," which precedes the specific sublimits of liability upon which the Hewlett-Packard court relied, is also not a comparable provision.
Id. at n.10 (emphases in original) (citations omitted). Finally, the Court rejected NYU's two remaining arguments, neither of which it attempts to resuscitate here.
The Court thereafter turned to the policy that FM issued to NYU in 2008 and summarily concluded that NYU's arguments regarding time element "fare[d] [even] worse against [that policy's even] more explicit language." Id. at *14. Rather than simply providing that "[l]imits of liability ... apply" to "all ... coverages involved," the 2008 policy's limits of liability section provided that "limits of liability in an [o]ccurrence apply to the total loss or damage at all [l]ocations and for all coverages involved, including any insured TIME ELEMENT loss. " Id. (emphasis added) (internal quotation marks omitted). The Policy, which is the subject of the parties' cross-motions for summary judgement, featured language identical to this language in the 2008 policy. See ECF No. 116, Ex. 7 at NYU033511. The Court adheres to its reading of that language as unambiguous in subjecting time element claims to the limit of liability for flood, as well as its sublimit.
The reconstituted arguments in NYU's motion fail to persuade the Court otherwise. In particular, the Court finds *325unpersuasive NYU's renewed reliance on Northrop Grumman Corporation v. Factory Mutual Insurance Company, 805 F.Supp.2d 945 (C.D. Cal. 2011), which considered a policy with materially different prefatory language in its limits of liability section. That policy provided: "When a limit of liability is shown ... the Insurer's maximum limit of liability will not exceed such limit during any policy year regardless of the number of locations, coverages or occurrences involved." ECF No. 127, Ex. 73 at 14. Simply put, this language bears no relation to the Policy's unambiguous dictate that "[l]imits of liability ... apply to ... any insured TIME ELEMENT loss." ECF No. 116, Ex. 7 at NYU033511.
Nor is the Court moved by NYU's argument -- a variant on its previously-rejected expressio unius argument -- that the reference in the operative provision to "all coverages involved" excludes time element from the flood limits because those limits "only 'involve[ ]' Property Damage coverage." ECF No. 129 at 33. Any doubt -- including any doubt as to whether the flood limits apply to time element coverage extensions -- is unequivocally resolved in FM's favor by language in the time element section of the Policy plainly stating that recovery for "TIME ELEMENT loss as provided in the TIME ELEMENT COVERAGES and TIME ELEMENT COVERAGE EXTENSIONS ... is subject to the applicable limit of liability that applies to the insured physical loss or damage." ECF No. 116, Ex. 7 at NYU033551. Here, the "Applicable Limit[ ] of Liability[ ]" (as indicated by the sub-heading in the limits of liability section) that applies to the insured physical loss or damage is the flood limit, as qualified by its sublimit; time element claims arising from flood damage are thus expressly subject to those limits.
In view of the Policy's unambiguous language on this point, FM is entitled to summary judgment.
2. Additional Coverages
The same result obtains with regard to NYU's argument that the limit of liability for flood (and its sublimit) do not apply to the Policy's additional coverages, though they too are expressly made "subject to the applicable limit of liability." Id. at NYU033528. Again, NYU cannot overcome the unambiguous language in the limits of liability section stating that "[l]imits of liability in an occurrence apply to the total loss or damage at all locations and for all coverages involved ...." Id. at NYU033511 (emphasis added). "The only reasonable interpretation of this straightforward provision is that the limit[s] of liability for flood ... appl[y] to 'all ... coverages" implicated by the flood damage covered by those limits. New York Univ., 2018 WL 1737745, at *10 (fourth alteration in original).
NYU asks the Court to instead construe this language as providing that limits of liability in an occurrence apply only to coverages explicitly specified in each respective limit. Thus, in the event that NYU incurred costs "to remove debris from an insured location" (one of the Policy's additional coverages) as a direct result of a flood, the Policy would cover those costs up to the overall coverage limit of $ 1.85 billion, notwithstanding the Policy's $ 250 million limit of liability for damage from flood, because that limit does not specify that it applies to debris removal. ECF No. 116, Ex. 7 at NYU033535. For support, NYU submits that in view of the provision's use of the plural word "limits," it cannot be that one limit of liability applies to all of the coverages involved in an occurrence.
*326The pluralization of the word "limits" cannot bear the weight that NYU attempts to place on it. NYU ignores the obvious reason that "limits" is pluralized: it precedes a list of 52 limits of liability. It is far more natural to read "limits" this way than to read it as effectively transforming the phrase "all coverages involved" into the phrase "all coverages explicitly specified in each respective limit." "Where the provisions of the policy 'are clear and unambiguous, they must be given their plain and ordinary meaning, and courts should refrain from rewriting the agreement.' " Horowitz v. Am. Int'l Grp., Inc., 498 F. App'x 51, 53 (2d Cir. 2012) (quoting U.S. Fid. & Guar. Co. v. Annunziata, 67 N.Y.2d 229, 232, 501 N.Y.S.2d 790, 492 N.E.2d 1206 (1986) ); see also Neopharm Ltd. v. Wyeth-Ayerst Int'l LLC, 170 F.Supp.3d 612, 615 (S.D.N.Y. 2016) ("[T]he Court may not find the contract ambiguous merely because the parties present alternative interpretations."); cf. Orient Overseas Assocs. v. XL Ins. Am., Inc., 2016 WL 2770278, at *10-11, 2016 N.Y. Misc. LEXIS 2048, at *34-38 (Sup. Ct. N.Y. Cty. May 11, 2016) (interpreting identical precatory language as unambiguously subjecting any "loss ... caused by flood," including losses contemplated by separate coverages, to the subject policy's "flood sublimit").4
Ultimately, the limits of liability for flood, read together with the surrounding language, evince a clear intent on the part of the parties to cap at the amounts specified therein FM's liability for losses caused by flood at the relevant locations. See First Tech. Capital, Inc. v. Airborne, Inc., 726 F. App'x 85, 86 (2d Cir. 2018) ("[T]he fundamental ... precept of contract interpretation is that agreements are [to be] construed in accord with the parties' intent." (second and third alterations in original) (internal quotation marks omitted) ). Summary judgment for FM is thus appropriate on this point as well.
3. Faulty Workmanship
NYU's argument that certain of its Sandy-related losses were caused not by "flood," as that term is defined in the Policy, but by separately covered "faulty workmanship," is similarly foreclosed by the unambiguous language of the contract.5
*327As a threshold matter, NYU incorrectly asserts that the Policy included a standalone grant of coverage "for loss resulting from faulty workmanship, provided that such loss [wa]s not otherwise excluded." ECF No. 129 at 22. In fact, the Policy excluded faulty workmanship from its coverage and merely excepted from this exclusion resulting physical damage of the type otherwise insured by the Policy. See Women's Integrated Network, Inc. v. U.S. Specialty Ins. Co., No. 08 CIV. 10518 (SCR), 2012 WL 13070116, at *8 (S.D.N.Y. Oct. 26, 2012) ("An exception to an exclusion is not equivalent to an affirmative grant of coverage."). The distinction is not academic. By NYU's framing, the Policy covered loss resulting from faulty workmanship all the way up to the overall coverage limit of $ 1.85 billion. But in reality, the provision at issue only confirmed that if faulty workmanship resulted in a kind of loss covered elsewhere by the Policy -- such as loss from a flood -- it remained covered, subject to the applicable limit of liability, notwithstanding the general exclusion of faulty workmanship from coverage. See RK Mech., Inc. v. Travelers Prop. Cas. Co. of Am., 944 F.Supp.2d 1013, 1021 (D. Colo. 2011) ("[Such a] clause ... does not reinsert coverage for excluded losses, but rather reaffirms coverage for secondary losses ultimately caused by excluded perils." (internal quotation marks omitted) ). Thus, whether or not proper workmanship would have prevented some portion of the losses that NYU sustained during Superstorm Sandy, those losses are subject to the limits of liability for flood so long as they fall within the Policy's flood coverage.
As stated above, the Policy defined "flood," in relevant part, as:
flood; surface waters; rising waters; storm surge, sea surge, wave wash; waves; tsunami; tide or tidal water; the release of water, the rising, overflowing or breaking of boundaries of natural or man-made bodies of water; or the spray therefrom; all whether driven by wind or not; or sewer back-up resulting from any of the foregoing; regardless of any other cause or event, whether natural or man-made, contributing concurrently or in any other sequence of loss.
ECF No. 116, Ex. 7 at NYU033583. The Policy further clarified that "[p]hysical loss or damage from flood associated with a storm ... is considered to be flood within the terms of this Policy." Id.
Despite acknowledging the (indisputable) connection between its losses and Superstorm Sandy's associated flood waters, NYU insists that the flood definition does not encompass its losses insofar as they were caused by faulty workmanship. But as FM notes, the flood definition expressly encompasses losses from flood waters "regardless of any other cause or event, whether natural or man-made, contributing concurrently or in any other sequence of loss." Id. This clear language is dispositive in FM's favor: even if faulty workmanship permitted flood waters to wreak havoc on NYU's facilities, the resulting losses fall within the Policy's definition of flood.
As a last resort, NYU invokes "the grammatical 'rule of the last antecedent,' according to which a limiting clause or phrase ... should ordinarily be read as modifying only the noun or phrase that it immediately follows." Barnhart v. Thomas, 540 U.S. 20, 26, 124 S.Ct. 376, 157 L.Ed.2d 333 (2003). In other words, NYU contends that the "regardless" clause "only applies to the immediately preceding phrase '[or] sewer back-up resulting from the foregoing.' " ECF No. 129 at 22. However, the rule of the last antecedent does not apply where, as here, the modifying phrase is set off from the list that it follows by the same *328sort of punctuation that separates the items in the list from one another. See Am. Int'l Grp., Inc. v. Bank of Am. Corp., 712 F.3d 775, 781-82 (2d Cir. 2013). "When a modifier is set off from a series of antecedents [in that way], the modifier should be read to apply to each of those antecedents." Id. at 782. Though listed items are most often separated from one another by commas, this grammatical convention is no less applicable when semicolons are used in their stead. See, e.g., Northrop Grumman Corp. v. Factory Mut. Ins. Co., No. CV0508444DDPPLAX, 2010 WL 11457267, at *7-9 (C.D. Cal. Aug. 26, 2010) (applying an identical modifying phrase in a flood definition to all of the prior items listed -- rather than to only the immediately preceding phrase concerning sewer back-up -- where the items, including the modifying phrase, were separated by semicolons). Accordingly, the "regardless" clause plainly applies to all that precedes it in the flood definition, and NYU's claim is without merit.6 FM is therefore entitled to summary judgment once again.
4. The Address Clause
Judging from the parties' briefs and oral argument presentations, the central dispute in this case concerns the proper construction of the address portion of the flood sublimit. That provision set forth "a USD40,000,000 limit in the aggregate during any policy year for property located at the NYU Hospital Center and School of Medicine located at 550-580 First Avenue, 401 & 435 E 30th Street, 317 & 400 E. 34th Street and 3010 [FDR] Drive, New York, NY[.]" ECF No. 116, Ex. 7 at NYU033513. While FM contends that the sublimit applies to all ten of the physically-interconnected buildings located on the superblock bounded by First Avenue to the West, 34th Street to the North, FDR Drive to the East, and 30th Street to the South -- all of which are associated with NYU's hospital or medical school -- NYU insists that it applies only to buildings bearing the specified addresses. The parties thus disagree as to whether the sublimit applies to Skirball Institute, Smilow, and HCC -- the three buildings on the superblock with First Avenue addresses that fall either partially or wholly outside the 550-580 range stated in the provision.7
FM argues that the address portion of the flood sublimit should be read as "a *329reference point telling the reader where to find" the single complex of interconnected buildings that the provision calls the "NYU Hospital Center and School of Medicine," ECF No. 113 at 19, as buildings associated with NYU's hospital and medical school "can be found throughout Manhattan and beyond," ECF No. 129 at 11, and if the parties had really intended to single out three buildings from the superblock complex for an additional $ 210 million in flood coverage,8 they would have "state[d] that [the limit] only applies to 'those NYU Hospital Center and School of Medicine buildings located at [the specified addresses],' " ECF No. 113 at 19 (emphases in original). See First Tech. Capital, Inc., 726 F. App'x at 86 ("[Contracts must be] construed in accord with the parties' intent." (internal quotation marks omitted) ). NYU counters that "[t]he natural and ordinary meaning of [the address] provision is that the [ ]sublimit applies only to ... propert[ies] [with] the addresses specified," whether or not they are part of the complex located on the superblock. ECF No. 129 at 11 ; see Aetna Cas. & Sur. Co. v. Aniero Concrete Co., 404 F.3d 566, 598 (2d Cir. 2005) ("[A]mbiguity [does not] exist where one party's view strain[s] the contract language beyond its reasonable and ordinary meaning." (third alteration in original) (internal quotation marks omitted) ).
NYU's is certainly the more compelling argument when the language of the provision is viewed on its own. However, the Court is "not charged ... with considering the [provision] in isolation." Sea Ins. Co. v. Westchester Fire Ins. Co., 51 F.3d 22, 26 (2d Cir. 1995). Rather, "[t]o determine whether a [provision] is unambiguous, ... the contract must be considered as a whole." Brad H., 17 N.Y.3d at 185, 928 N.Y.S.2d 221, 951 N.E.2d 743. Viewing the provision in the context of other provisions in the Policy, its ambiguity becomes apparent.
Of particular relevance is the schedule of locations appended to the Policy (and incorporated therein), which listed insured locations alongside their addresses.9 Though the entries for Smilow and HCC disclose nothing of note, reporting their addresses as 522 First Avenue and 530 First Avenue, respectively, the two separate entries for Skirball Institute -- one in the section listing "NYU SCHOOL OF MEDICINE PROPERTIES" and one in the section listing "NYU HOSPITALS CENTER PROPERTIES" -- sow considerable confusion. ECF No. 116, Ex. 7 at NYU033595, NYU033598. Specifically, the former entry listed the insured location "SKIRBALL INSTITUTE 564 FIRST AVENUE" as having four separate addresses: "540, 562, 564, [and] 584 First Avenue." Id. at NYU033595. The latter entry listed the insured location "SKIRBALL INSTITUTE" as having three separate addresses: "540, 562, [and] 584 First Avenue." Id. at NYU033598. Adding to the confusion is a third entry, in the "NYU HOSPITALS CENTER PROPERTIES" section, that listed the insured location "Resident/Staff" as having the address "564 FIRST AVENUE." Id. at NYU033599.
*330The schedule of locations thereby exposes a glaring ambiguity in the address portion of the flood sublimit: one must necessarily refer to the schedule to determine which buildings correspond to the addresses listed in the sublimit, yet it is impossible to determine on that basis whether or not Skirball Institute falls within the list. That is because Skirball Institute's multiple addresses simultaneously place it both in and out of the 550-580 First Avenue range stated in the sublimit. This lends credence to FM's (otherwise questionable) referential reading of the address list while casting doubt on NYU's (otherwise sensible) literal reading of the same. But at bottom, it demonstrates that the operative provision, "read [in the context of the contract] as a whole, fails to disclose its purpose and the parties' intent." Universal Am. Corp. v. Nat'l Union Fire Ins. Co. of Pittsburgh, Pa., 25 N.Y.3d 675, 680, 16 N.Y.S.3d 21, 37 N.E.3d 78 (2015) (internal quotation marks omitted). Though one can certainly conceive of explanations that would square the apparent incongruity with either party's reading of the provision, no such explanation can be found within the four corners of the contract. The provision is therefore ambiguous, and resort must be made to the parties' extrinsic evidence to shed light on its meaning.10
FM begins by setting forth unrebutted evidence that -- in several contexts -- NYU internally understood the buildings on the superblock to comprise a single complex (variously referred to as "Langone Medical Center," "the medical center," or "the Main Campus") and that the address "550-580 First Avenue" was commonly used to refer to it in its entirety, even though several buildings in the complex either had First Avenue addresses outside that range or lacked First Avenue addresses altogether. For example, FM notes that NYU's Associate Director of Insurance Deborah DiGiacomo admitted that she had "seen the address 550-580 First Avenue used to describe the entire medical center" by "people" at NYU. ECF No. 122 at 60 (internal quotation marks omitted). DiGiacomo's predecessor, Paulette Prawl, likewise testified that she had "seen or heard people within NYU use 550-580 First Avenue to describe the Medical Center." Id. (alteration and internal quotation marks omitted). FM next demonstrates that -- at least in some respects -- this internal understanding was unquestionably imported *331into NYU's dealings with FM. FM cites several insurance-related documents exchanged by the parties in which the "Medical Center" is described as located at 550-580 First Avenue. Among them are "[a]t least five separate risk reports prepared by FM Engineering and sent to NYU between 2006 and 2012," which "included a cover page listing '550-580 1st Ave' as the address for the Medical Center," and which "addressed each of the Medical Center buildings, including HCC, Skirball, and Smilow." Id. at 55. Finally, FM seeks to prove that this convention was incorporated directly into the flood sublimits contained in the series of policies -- including the Policy -- that the parties executed in the years preceding Sandy. See Hoyt v. Andreucci, 433 F.3d 320, 332 (2d Cir. 2006) (emphasizing the relevance of extrinsic evidence of the parties' course of dealing to the construction of an ambiguous contractual provision). The evidence establishes the following sequence.
The 2006 version of the parties' policy for the first time introduced a flood sublimit, which provided "USD10,000,000 for New York University Medical Center Properties, Index 21374.00." ECF No. 122 at 47 (internal quotation marks omitted). By the 2008 policy, the flood sublimit contained additional coverage and slightly different wording; it provided that "[a] USD25,000,000 limit applies at the following Location: [ ] New York Medical Center properties, Index 21374.00." Id. at 49 (internal quotation marks omitted). The next year, in 2009, the flood sublimit for the first time included an address description, providing that "[a] USD25,000,000 limit applies at the following Location: [ ] NYU Hospitals Center and School of Medicine located at 550-580 First Ave., 401 & 435 E 30th Street, 317 & 400 E 34th Street, and 3010 FD Roosevelt Dr., New York, NY Index No. 21374.00." Id. (internal quotation marks omitted). And by endorsement effective July 1, 2010, the flood sublimit was again amended slightly to provide "a USD40,000,000 limit in the Aggregate During Any Policy Year for property located at NYU Hospitals Center and School of Medicine located at 550-580 First Ave., 401 & 435 E 30th Street, 317 & 400 E 34th Street, and 3010 [FDR] Drive, New York, NY Index No. 21374.00." Id. at 66; accord ECF No. 116, Ex. 83. NYU has admitted -- in response to a request for admission -- that each of the aforementioned sublimits applied to all of the buildings on the superblock, including Skirball Institute, Smilow, and HCC. See, e.g., ECF No. 122 at 67.
The Policy, which went into effect in 2011, introduced the operative sublimit. The only difference between that sublimit and the 2010 version it replaced -- which undisputedly applied to the entire superblock -- is the omission of the index number 21374.00, which had appeared in each iteration of the sublimit since its inception in 2006.11 Meanwhile, that index number continued to designate all of the buildings on the superblock in the Policy's schedule of locations.
FM argues that the removal of the index number from the sublimit did not suddenly transform the address range, which the parties had apparently understood to reference the entire superblock in the 2010 policy, into a literal, exhaustive description of the buildings covered. NYU counters that no transformation was necessary; it disputes that the "address [range] in [the] prior policies applied to all [superblock] locations" and contends instead that "it was the ... index number ... that" extended the sublimit in that way, as "all *332[superblock] locations" were designated by that index number in each policy's schedule of locations. ECF No. 129 at 17-18. NYU's reading of the earlier sublimits, however, eschews basic principles of contract interpretation, as it would render the address range and index number -- which stood side-by-side in each sublimit -- irreconcilably contradictory. Thus, in view of the parties' well-established course of dealing, NYU's preferred construction of the operative sublimit may carry the day over FM's only if NYU can point to evidence showing that the removal of the index number reflected an intent on the part of the parties to -- for first time -- except three superblock buildings from the sublimit and thereby provide them with an additional $ 210 million in flood coverage. NYU cannot make such a showing.
NYU's proffered explanation for the removal of the index number would strain the credulity of any reasonable trier of fact: relying on evidence that Marsh (NYU's broker) requested an increase to the $ 40 million sublimit prior to the execution of the Policy in June 2011, NYU reasons that FM's subsequent removal of the index number, which left only the address range to control, was intended as a "partial[ ] accommodat[ion]" of that request, as it kept in place the $ 40 million limit for most superblock buildings "while at the same time ... increase[ing] the limit for HCC, Smilow and Skirball Institute" to $ 250 million. ECF No. 129 at 17, 19 n.20; see also id. at 17. This inferential leap, which smacks of post-hoc rationalization approaching desperation, finds no support in the record12 and suffers from several cumulatively-fatal flaws.
First, NYU's request for additional coverage was directed at the entire superblock *333complex; NYU never sought to carve out particular buildings from the sublimit, let alone the three buildings it claims were carved out. Second, the additional coverage that NYU actually requested -- an extra $ 10 million for the entire superblock complex -- is staggeringly modest compared to the $ 210 million that NYU claims FM granted it for the three disputed buildings, without so much as a discussion between the parties about a concomitant increase to NYU's premium. Third, the supposed selection of Skirball Institute, Smilow, and HCC for additional coverage would appear entirely arbitrary; the buildings are neither directly adjacent to one another nor categorically subject to a lesser risk of flood than the other buildings on the superblock. Fourth, carving out three of the interconnected superblock buildings from the sublimit -- including only part of the single structure depicted or described in various documents as Skirball Institute -- would have violated FM's internal guidelines, which instruct underwriters not to "apply separate flood limits to buildings within one location (index number) as flood analysis is not that precise and interdependencies may exist." Id. at 38 (internal quotation marks omitted). Finally -- and perhaps most damning to NYU -- there is not a shred of evidence (documentary or otherwise), that FM ever so much as mentioned (internally or otherwise) substantially increasing NYU's flood coverage (in the manner suggested by NYU or otherwise). Indeed, there is no evidence that NYU even acknowledged the dramatic increase in coverage it claims to have received or that its broker, Marsh, ever sought to claim credit for what would have been a job very well done. NYU thus asks that a jury be permitted to conclude that FM provided a coverage increase in the hundreds of millions of dollars sub silentio , without NYU or its broker deeming it worthy of their comment.
No reasonable jury could do so, particularly in view of the affirmative evidence of the parties' contrary understanding: in the exhaustive summary of the Policy prepared for NYU in 2011, the very broker who had negotiated with FM for an increase to the sublimit reported that the flood coverage had not in fact been changed from the prior year. See Ribacoff v. Chubb Grp. of Ins. Companies, 2 A.D.3d 153, 154, 770 N.Y.S.2d 1 (2003) (imputing the knowledge of an insurance broker to the insured). That summary provided in relevant part:
[NYU] has elected to renew according to expiring coverage limits except for the policy limit which has been increased to $ 1,850,000,000: [FM is] unable at this time to provide additional limits for Flood for property located at the NYU Hospital Center and School of Medicine located at 550-580 First Avenue, 401 & 435 E. 30th Street, 317 & 400 E. 34th Street and 3010 [FDR] Drive, new York, NY: the limit remains $ 40,000,000 in the annual aggregate.
Id. at 71. NYU erroneously argues that the omission of the 21374.00 index number from that summary means it can be reconciled with NYU's position; the summary clearly stated that the only change to coverage was an increase in the overall policy limit, and there is no basis for inferring that this description was incomplete. See ECF No. 113 at 24 n.112 (pointing out that the 17-page summary identified changes as minor as typographical errors). For the avoidance of doubt, the summary included a chart that compared each limit of liability in the 2010 policy to its counterpart in the 2011 version; an entry for "Flood - SoM/NYUMC [i.e., School of Medicine/New *334York University Medical Center] Index 21374.00 " featured the same "$ 40,000,000" in both the "2010" and "2011" columns. ECF No. 116, Ex. 7 at NYU033500 (emphasis added). This evidence, which coheres with the course-of-dealing evidence described above, is a compelling indication that the parties neither intended to substantively (and substantially) change the sublimit in 2011 nor believed that any such change had been effected. Because NYU has offered insufficient countervailing evidence to persuade a jury otherwise, FM is entitled to summary judgment on the parties' dueling claims for declaratory relief.
5. Breach of Contract
In light of the foregoing rulings, there is no basis in the record for concluding that FM wrongfully denied NYU coverage. Accordingly, FM is entitled to summary judgment on NYU's claim for breach of contract.
III. Conclusion
For the reasons stated herein, FM's motion for summary judgement is granted in all material respects,13 while NYU's cross-motion for summary judgment is denied in its entirety.
The Clerk of Court is respectfully directed to terminate the motions currently pending at ECF Nos. 111 and 121 and to close the case.
SO ORDERED.
