REQUIREMENTS OF CONTRACT BONDS Clause Samples

The 'Requirements of Contract Bonds' clause defines the obligation for a contractor to provide specific types of surety bonds, such as performance and payment bonds, as a condition of entering into a contract. Typically, this clause outlines the acceptable forms of bonds, the required amounts (often a percentage of the contract price), and the qualifications of the surety company issuing the bonds. By mandating these bonds, the clause ensures that the contractor will fulfill their contractual obligations and that subcontractors and suppliers will be paid, thereby protecting the project owner from financial loss due to contractor default or non-payment.
REQUIREMENTS OF CONTRACT BONDS. Within ten (10) calendar days after notice of award (which will be delivered with execution originals of contract), the Contractor shall furnish the Owner the executed contract and a surety bond or bonds which have been fully executed by the Contractor and the surety, guaranteeing the performance of the work and the payment of all legal debts that may be incurred by reason of the Contractor's performance of the work. The surety and the form of the bond or bonds shall be acceptable to the Owner. Unless otherwise specified in this subsection, the surety bond or bonds shall be in a sum equal to the full amount of the contract. No sureties will be accepted by the OWNER who are now in default or delinquent on any bonds or who are actively interested in any litigation against the Cities or the OWNER. All bonds shall be made on forms furnished by the OWNER, and shall be executed by not less than one corporate surety admitted to do business in the State of Texas or be listed by the U.S. Department of the Treasury as an acceptable surety. Individual sureties will not be accepted. Each bond shall be executed by the Contractor and the surety. Each surety shall designate an agent resident in Dallas or Tarrant County, Texas, to whom any requisite notices may be delivered and on whom service of process may be had in matters arising out of such suretyship. If a change in Resident Agent occurs, this change must be reported to the Airport Development & Engineering Department immediately. Surety bonds shall be in accordance with applicable law. These bonds shall automatically be increased by the amount of any Change Order or Supplemental Agreement which increases the Contract Amount, but in no event shall a Change Order or Supplemental Agreement which reduces the Contract Amount decrease such obligation.
