Agency Representing the Government

Obligation:
We, the Principal and Surety(ies), are firmly bound to the United States of America (hereinafter called the
Government) in the above penal sum. For payment of the penal sum, we bind ourselves, our heirs,
executors, administrators, and successors, jointly and severally.
Conditions:
The Principal contemplates entering into contracts, from time to time during the fiscal year shown above,
with the Government department or agency shown above, for furnishing supplies or services to the
Government. The Principal desires that all of those contracts be covered by one bond instead of by a
separate performance bond for each contract.
Therefore:
The above obligation is void if the Principal - (a) performs and fulfills all the undertakings, covenants, terms,
conditions, and agreements of any and all of those contracts entered into during the original term and any
extensions granted by the Government with or without notice to the surety(ies) and during the life of any
guaranty required under the contracts; and (b) performs and fulfills all the undertakings, covenants, terms,
conditions, and agreements of any and all duly authorized modifications of those contracts, that
subsequently are made. Notice of those modifications to the surety(ies) is waived.
Witness:
The Principal and Surety(ies) executed this performance bond and affixed their seals on the above date.
