WHEREAS, the William S. Hart Union High School District, as Obligee, awarded to ________________________________________ as Principal, the contract for the work described as follows:

WHEREAS, said Principal is required under the terms of said contract to furnish a bond for the faithful performance of said contract which contract is incorporated herein by reference.

NOW, THEREFORE, we the undersigned Principal and Surety are held and firmly bound unto the Obligee in the sum of: ________________________________________________ Dollars ($_________________) (this amount being not less than one hundred percent [100%] of the total amount payable by the Obligee under the terms of the contract awarded by the Obligee to the Principal), lawful money of the United States of America, for payment of which sum well and truly to be made, we bind ourselves, our heirs, executors, administrators and successors, jointly and severally, firmly by these presents.

THE CONDITION OF THIS OBLIGATION IS SUCH THAT, if the hereby bonded Principal, its heirs, executors, administrators, successors, or assigns shall in all things stand to and abide by and well and truly keep and perform all the undertakings, terms, covenants, conditions, and agreements in the said contract and any alteration thereof, made as therein provided, including, but not limited to, the provisions regarding contract duration and liquidated damages, all within the time and in the manner therein designated in all respects according to their true intent and meaning, then this obligation shall become null and void; otherwise, it shall be and remain in full force and effect.

As a condition precedent to the satisfactory completion of the contract, the above obligation shall hold good for a period of one (1) year after the acceptance of the work by the Obligee, during which time if Principal shall fail to make full, complete, and satisfactory repair and replacements and totally protect the Obligee from loss or damage made evident during the period of one (1) year from the date of completion of the work, and resulting from or caused by defective materials or faulty workmanship, the above obligation in penal sum thereof shall remain in full force and effect. The obligation of the Surety hereunder shall continue so long as any obligation of the Principal remains.

Whenever Principal shall be, and is declared by the Obligee to be, in default under the contract, the Obligee having performed the Obligee’s obligations thereunder, the Surety shall promptly remedy the default, or shall promptly:

1. Complete the contract in accordance with its terms and conditions; or

2. Obtain a bid or bids for completing the contract in accordance with its terms and conditions, and upon determination by Surety of the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, arrange for a contract between such bidder and the Obligee, and make available as work progresses sufficient funds to pay the cost of completion less the balance of the contract price, but not exceeding, including other costs and damages for which the Surety may be liable hereunder, the amount set forth above. The term “balance of the contract price” as used in this paragraph shall mean the total amount payable to the Principal by the Obligee under the contract and any modifications thereto, less the amount previously properly paid by the Obligee to the Principal.

Surety expressly agrees that the Obligee may reject any contractor or subcontractor which may be proposed by the Surety in fulfillment of its obligations in the event of default by the Principal.

Surety shall not utilize the Principal in completing the contract nor shall the Surety accept a bid from the Principal for completion of the work if the Obligee, when declaring the Principal in default, notifies the Surety of the Obligee’s objection to the Principal’s further participation in the completion of the work.

No right of action shall accrue on this bond to or for the use of any person or corporation other than the Obligee named herein or the successors or assigns of the Obligee. Any suit under this bond must be instituted within the applicable statute of limitations period.

Further, the said Surety, for value received, hereby stipulates and agrees that no change, extension of time, alteration or modification of the Project documents, or of the work to be performed thereunder, shall in any way affect its obligations on this bond; and it does hereby waive notice of any change, extension of time, alteration or modification of the Project documents or of the work to be performed thereunder.

In the event that the Obligee is required to engage the services of an attorney in connection with the enforcement of this bond, the Principal or Surety shall pay all costs incurred by the Obligee including reasonable attorney’s fees incurred, with or without suit.

Declaration Regarding California Workers' Compensation

LEGAL OR DBA NAME: ______________________________________ TIN:_______________________

You are required to complete this form because you have not filed a certificate regarding workers' compensation insurance with the William S. Hart Union High School District (DISTRICT). California law requires all employers to carry workers' compensation insurance, even if they have only one employee. If you are the sole owner and you have no employees, or if your business is an out-of-state corporation with no employees working in California, you may not be required to carry workers' compensation insurance. It is your responsibility to comply with the law. If you do not know whether you are required to carry workers' compensation insurance, find out by contacting the California Department of Industrial Relations ("DRE").

Information is also available on the DRE's website at http://www.dir.ca.gov. If you are subject to the Workers’ Compensation

Laws of California, you must promptly file a certificate of Workers’ Compensation Insurance with the DISTRICT. If you have a certificate of self-insurance from the DRE, you must file that certificate with the DISTRICT. When completing this form, remember that the term “employee” includes clerical persons as well as any other persons employed by your company including drivers.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

___ (Initial) California Labor Code § 3700 requires employers to carry workers' compensation insurance or to obtain a certificate from the Director of Industrial Relations demonstrating that the employer is self-insured. California Labor Code §

3700.5 makes it a criminal offense for an employer to fail to secure compensation as required by the workers'' compensation provisions of the Labor Code. Violation of Labor Code § 3700 is punishable by a fine of up to $10,000 and/or imprisonment for up to one year.

___ (Initial) California Labor Code § 3710.1 provides that where an employer fails to provide compensation required under§

3700, the Director of the Department of Industrial Relations shall issue a stop order, prohibiting the employer from using employee labor until such time as the employer complies with the provisions of § 3700. Labor Code § 3710.2 makes it a criminal offense to disregard such stop orders.

___ (Initial) I acknowledge that if evidence is found that contradicts this declaration, the DISTRICT will promptly notify all relevant state agencies to ensure full insurance compliance required by Workers’ Compensation Laws of California and that my operating permit will be suspended and/or revoked.

DECLARATION REGARDING WORKERS' COMPENSATION COVERAGE

___ (Initial) I understand that California Labor Code §§ 3700 et seq requires employers to provide worker’s compensation insurance coverage for any employees of my business. I hereby warrant that this business is exempt from the California

Labor Code provisions regarding workers compensation insurance because it has no employees.

___ (Initial) I agree to hold the DISTRICT harmless for loss or liability which may arise from the failure of the above-mentioned business to comply with the laws of the State of California regarding workers' compensation insurance.

___ (Initial) If I hire employees in the future, I will immediately notify the DISTRICT and provide a certified Workers’

Compensation certificate.

CERTIFICATION

I (we) certify (or declare) under penalty of perjury that I (we) have read and understood the above stated requirements regarding Workers’ Compensation and that I (we) am (are) in compliance. I (we) certify (or declare) that the forgoing is true and correct.
