Justice ABBOTT delivered the opinion of the Court.

The issue in this case is whether Royal Indemnity Company1 is obligated to pay prejudgment interest, in addition to the policy limits, on a claim by a third party against its insured. We conclude that the insurance policy does not require the payment of that prejudgment interest. Accordingly, we affirm the court of appeals' judgment.
