5. Collateral Security: Indemnitors agree to deposit with Company, upon demand,
an amount as determined by Company sufficient to discharge any Loss or
anticipated Loss. Indemnitors further agree to deposit with Company, upon
demand, an amount equal to the value of any assets or Contract funds improperly
diverted by any Indemnitor. Sums deposited with Company pursuant to this
paragraph may be used by Company to pay such claim or be held by Company as
collateral security against any Loss or unpaid premium on any Bond. Company
shall have no duty to invest, or provide interest on, the deposit. Indemnitors
agree that Company would suffer irreparable damage and would not have an
adequate remedy at law if Indemnitors fail to comply with the provisions of this
paragraph.

6. Remedies: In the event of a Default, Indemnitors assign, convey and transfer
to Company all of their rights, title and interests in Property, and Company
shall have a right in its sole discretion to: (a) take possession of the work
under any Contract and to complete said Contract, or cause, or consent to, the
completion thereof; (b) immediately take possession of Indemnitors’ Property,
and utilize the Property for the completion of the work under the Contracts
without payment for such use; (c) assert or prosecute any right or claim in the
name of any Indemnitor and to settle any such right or claim as Company sees
fit; (d) execute in the name of any Indemnitor, any instruments deemed necessary
or desirable by Company to: (i) provide Company with title to assets, (ii) take
immediate possession of Contract funds whether earned or unearned, (iii) collect
such sums as may be due Indemnitors and to endorse in the name of Indemnitors,
and (iv) collect on any negotiable instruments; (e) require any Obligee to
withhold payment of Contract funds unless and until Company consents to its
release; and/or (f) be subrogated to all the rights, remedies, properties,
funds, securities and receivables relating to Indemnitors’ Contracts or
contracts and have the right to offset losses on any Contract or Bond against
proceeds, funds, or property due from another Contract, bond or contract.
Further, in the event of Default and upon demand Indemnitors shall direct that
all payments, monies, and properties that are due or may become due on any
Contract or contract be made payable to, and/or sent directly to, Company, and
shall issue whatever writing or notices as deemed necessary by Company to
effectuate the default and/or termination of any Contract.

7. Joint and Several Liability: The obligations of Indemnitors hereunder are
joint and several. Company is authorized to settle with any one or more of the
Indemnitors individually, and without reference to the others, and any such
settlements shall not bar or prejudice actions by Company against or affect the
liability of the other Indemnitors hereunder.

8. Decline Execution: Company has the right, for any reason, to decline to
execute: (a) any Bond, including final Bonds where Company provided a bid Bond;
(b) any Bond rider or consent authorizing any change to any Bond; and/or (c) any
other consent of surety, without incurring any liability or waiving any right.

9. Trust Fund: All payments due or received for or on account of any Contract,
whether or not in the possession of any Indemnitor, shall be held in trust as
trust funds by Indemnitors for the benefit and payment of all obligations for
which Company as beneficiary may be liable under any Bond. Company may open a
trust account or accounts with a bank for the deposit of the trust funds. Upon
demand, Indemnitors shall deposit therein all trust funds received. Withdrawals
from such trust accounts shall require the express consent of Company.

10. Books, Records and Credit: Indemnitors shall furnish upon demand, and
Company shall have the right of free access to, at reasonable times, the records
of Indemnitors including, but not limited to, books, papers, records, documents,
contracts, reports, financial information, accounts and electronically stored
information, for the purpose of examining and copying them. Indemnitors
expressly authorize Company to access their credit records, including, but not
limited to, account numbers and/or account balances from financial institutions.
To the extent required by law, Indemnitors, upon request, shall be informed
whether or not a consumer report has been requested by Company, and if so, of
the name and address of the consumer reporting agency furnishing the report.

11. Attorney in Fact: Indemnitors irrevocably constitute, appoint and designate
Company as their attorney in fact with the right, but not the obligation, to
exercise all rights of Indemnitors assigned or granted to Company and to execute
and deliver any other assignments, documents, instruments or agreements deemed
necessary by Company to exercise its rights under this Agreement in the name of
any Indemnitor.

12. Security Interest: As security for their obligations hereunder, Indemnitors
hereby grant to Company a security interest in the following properties, assets
and rights of Indemnitors, wherever located, whether now owned or hereafter
acquired or arising, and all proceeds and products thereof: all goods (including
inventory, equipment and any accessions thereto), instruments (including
promissory notes), documents, accounts, chattel paper, deposit accounts,
letter-of-credit rights, securities and all other investment property,
supporting obligations, any Contract or contract rights or rights to the payment
of money, insurance claims and proceeds, and all general intangibles (the
“Collateral”). This Agreement shall for all purposes constitute a Security
Agreement for the benefit of Company in accordance with the Uniform Commercial
Code (“UCC”) and all similar statutes. Indemnitors hereby irrevocably authorize
Company, without notice to any Indemnitor, in order to perfect the security
interest granted herein, to file either: (a) this Agreement or a copy or other
reproduction of this Agreement; or (b) any initial financing statements or
amendments thereto that indicate the Collateral as all assets of Indemnitors or
words of similar effect, as being of an equal or lesser scope or with greater
detail and that contain any other information relating to any Indemnitor
required by Part 5 of Article 9 of the UCC for the jurisdiction where such
financing statement or amendment is filed. Company may add schedules or other
documents to this Agreement as necessary to perfect its rights. The failure to
file or record this Agreement or any financing statement shall not release or
excuse any of the obligations of Indemnitors under this Agreement.

13. Termination: This is a continuing Agreement, which remains in full force and
effect until terminated. The sole method available to Indemnitors to terminate
their participation in this Agreement is by giving written notice to Company of
Indemnitors’ intent to terminate. Such notice shall be sent to St. Paul
Travelers Bond, Attention: Construction Services – Bond, One Tower Square, 5PB,
Hartford, Connecticut 06183. The termination shall take effect thirty (30) days
after Company receives such notice (“Termination Date”). The notice shall not
relieve Indemnitor from its obligations for any Bond executed prior to the
Termination Date or with respect to any Bond executed after the Termination
Date: (a) upon the award of a Contract to any Indemnitor on a bid or proposal in
respect of which Company has executed or procured a bid Bond prior to the
Termination Date; or (b) which Company has become committed to execute or
procure prior to the Termination Date; or (c) in connection with any
maintenance, guarantee, claim, lien, litigation, or other matter involving or
relating to any Bond executed prior to the Termination Date or thereafter
executed or procured as provided in sub-paragraphs (a) or (b) above.

14. Jurisdiction: In any legal proceeding brought by or against Company that in
any way relates to this Agreement, each Indemnitor, for itself and its property,
irrevocably and unconditionally submits to the exclusive jurisdiction, at the
sole and exclusive option of Company, of the courts in any state in which any
Indemnitor resides, has property, or in which any Contract is performed.
Indemnitors hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submit to the jurisdiction of
said courts and waive and agree not to assert any claim that they are not
subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such proceeding is brought
in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of such proceeding is improper.

15. Other Sureties: If Company procures the execution of Bonds by other
sureties, executes Bonds with co-sureties or obtains reinsurance, the provisions
of this Agreement inure to the benefit of such other surety, co-surety or
reinsurer, but only as to such Bonds.

16. Nature of Rights: If any provision or portion of this Agreement is or
becomes unenforceable, this Agreement shall not be void, but shall be construed
and enforced with the same effect as though such provision or portion were
omitted. This Agreement is in addition to and not in lieu of any other agreement
of indemnity, whether now existing or entered into hereafter. Company shall be
entitled to specific performance of the terms of this Agreement in addition to
any other remedy at law or equity. Time is of the essence in this Agreement.
Whenever the context may require, any pronoun used in this Agreement shall
include the corresponding masculine, feminine and neuter forms. The rights and
remedies afforded to Company by the terms of this Agreement can only be modified
by a written rider to this Agreement signed by an authorized representative of
Company. If any Indemnitor fails to execute or improperly executes this
Agreement or is otherwise found not to be bound under this Agreement, such
failure or finding shall not affect the obligations of the other Indemnitors.
The failure to sign or the improper execution of a Bond shall not affect
Company’s rights under this Agreement, and Indemnitors waive any claim they may
have, now or at any time in the future, arising out of the failure to sign or
properly execute a Bond. Termination and/or limitation of any Indemnitors’
obligations under this Agreement shall in no way affect the obligations of any
of the other Indemnitors whose obligations have not been terminated and/or
limited. Indemnitors acknowledge this Agreement can be amended via rider to add
another person, entity or entities as Indemnitor(s) to this Agreement and
Indemnitors waive any and all notice in connection with the addition of
additional Indemnitors and further acknowledge the rights and obligations
provided herein shall apply to all Indemnitors whenever made a party to the
Agreement.

17. Jury Waiver: Indemnitors hereby waive and covenant that they will not assert
any right to trial by jury in respect to any legal proceeding arising out of
this Agreement.

18. Resolution: Indemnitors have a substantial, material and beneficial
interest: (a) in the obtaining of Bonds by any of the Indemnitors; and (b) in
the transaction(s) for which any Indemnitor has applied or will apply to Company
for Bonds pursuant to this Agreement. Indemnitors have the full power and
authority to execute, deliver and perform this Agreement and to carry out the
obligations stated herein. Indemnitors further acknowledge and agree that:
(x) the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by such
Indemnitors; (y) the compliance with the terms and provisions hereof; and
(z) the carrying out of the obligations contemplated herein, do not, and will
not, conflict with and will not result in a breach or violation of any terms,
conditions or provisions of the charter documents or bylaws of such Indemnitors,
or any law, governmental rule or regulation, or any applicable order, writ,
injunction, judgment or decree of any court or governmental authority against
Indemnitors, or any other agreement binding upon Indemnitors, or constitute a
default thereunder.

 

19. Date of Agreement: The date of this Agreement shall be the earliest date any
Indemnitor executes this Agreement.

WE HAVE READ THIS INDEMNITY AGREEMENT CAREFULLY. THERE ARE NO SEPARATE
AGREEMENTS OR UNDERSTANDINGS WHICH IN ANY WAY LESSEN OUR OBLIGATIONS AS ABOVE
SET FORTH. IN TESTIMONY HEREOF, WE THE INDEMNITORS HAVE SET OUR HANDS AND FIXED
