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

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.
