d. Except as provided in this Performance Bond Section, the Aviation Authority will not accept any change or modification to the forms of Performance Bond or Letter of Credit attached to these Solicitation Documents. The sole change to the forms of Performance Bond and Letter of Credit that the Aviation Authority will accept is that the Contractor may provide a Performance Bond or a Letter of Credit that is for a period of less than the full initial term of the Contract but which still has an effective term of not less than twelve (12) months. The Aviation Authority shall release any existing Letter of Credit provided by the Contractor upon the Aviation Authority’s receipt and approval of a renewal or replacement Letter of Credit that complies with the requirements of this Contract.

e. If the Contractor is required to provide any renewal of the Performance Bond or Letter of Credit, rider to an existing Performance Bond or Letter of Credit, or continuation amendment to an existing Performance Bond or Letter of Credit (collectively, the “Replacement”), Contractor shall, at the discretion of the Aviation Authority, calculate the penal sum/amount (the “Amount”) of any such Replacement as follows:

1) If the Renewal is provided in connection with the expiration of an existing

Performance Bond or Letter of Credit prior to expiration of the initial term of the Contract but not in connection with an amendment to the Contract where the compensation to be paid to Contractor is increased, the Replacement shall be in an Amount equal to the Amount of the then current Performance Bond or Letter of Credit.

2) If the Replacement Performance Bond is provided in connection with an amendment of the Contract where the compensation to be paid to the Contractor during the period covered by the then current Performance Bond or Letter of Credit is increased for any reason, the Replacement shall be in an Amount equal to the Amount of the then current Performance Bond or Letter of Credit plus an amount that bears the same ratio to the increased compensation to be paid to the Contractor that the Amount of the then current Performance Bond or Letter of Credit bears to the total compensation to be paid to the Contractor prior to such amendment to the Contract.

3) If the Replacement is provided in connection with the renewal or extension of the Contract and the required Amount of the Performance Bond or Letter of Credit for the initial term of the Contract is stated as a fixed Amount, the Replacement shall be in an Amount equal to the lesser of either (i) the Amount required during the initial term of the Contract; or (ii) an Amount that bears the same ratio to the total estimated compensation to be paid to the Contractor during the renewal term that the Amount required during the initial term of the Contract bore to the total estimated compensation to be paid to the Contractor during the initial term of the Contract.

4) If the Replacement is provided in connection with the renewal or extension of the Contract and the required Amount of the Performance Bond or Letter of Credit for the initial term of the Contract is stated as a fraction or percentage of the Contract price, the Replacement shall be in an Amount equal to the same annualized percentage of the total estimated compensation (including any reimbursable expenses) to be paid to the Contractor during the renewal term (i.e., if the initial Performance Bond or Letter of Credit is 1/6 of the total three year Contract cost, then the Replacement will be one-half of the total estimated compensation to be paid to the Contractor during the renewal year).

f. Failure to timely submit an acceptable Performance Bond or Letter of Credit prior to commencement of the Contract in addition to all other rights available to the Aviation Authority under law, shall give the Aviation Authority the right to withdraw the Notice of Intent to Award, without the need for providing the Contractor advance notice or the opportunity to cure. Contractor acknowledges responsibility for any damages or costs incurred by the Aviation Authority due to its failure to comply with this Section 3.6.

g. Surety Bonds delivered to the Aviation Authority in satisfaction of any requirement under this Contract must meet the following criteria:

1) Performance and Payment Bonds provided to the Aviation Authority in connection with Contracts having a value in excess of $500,000.00 shall be duly issued by an insurer or corporate surety which:

a) Is authorized to conduct insurance business in the State of

Florida;

b) Holds a currently valid certificate of authority by the U.S.
