2. When CITY has satisfied the conditions of paragraph 1, SURETY shall promptly and at SURETY's expense take one of the following actions:

4. After CITY has terminated CONTRACTOR's right to complete the Construction Contract, and if SURETY elects to act under subparagraph 2.1, 2.2, or 2.3 above, then the responsibilities of SURETY to CITY shall not be greater than those of CONTRACTOR under the Construction Contract, and the responsibilities of CITY to SURETY shall not be greater than those of CITY under the Construction Contract.

6. Any proceeding, legal or equitable, under this Bond may be instituted in any court of competent jurisdiction in the location in which the Work or part of the Work is located and shall be instituted within two years after CITY declares CONTRACTOR to be in default or within two years after CONTRACTOR ceased working or within two years after SURETY refuses or fails to perform its obligations under this Bond, whichever occurs first. If the provisions of this paragraph are void or prohibited by law, the minimum period of limitation available to Sureties in the State of Colorado shall be applicable.
