cancellation had occurred if any payment of any obligations of the Principal(s) is rescinded or must be restored pursuant to

any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization, or receivership, or should the representation of the Principal that it has paid its

financial Obligations or performed the other Obligations of the pipeline ROW grant(s)in accordance with BOEMRE

specifications be materially false and the BOEMRE relied upon such representation in canceling the instrument.

  1. The Surety waives any right of notice of this bond or other security*taking effect and agrees that this bond or additional security* will take effect upon delivery to BOEMRE.
