Ohio Admin. Code 153:1-4-02 - Type and amount of surety bonds

(A) Prior to the execution of the contract, the construction manager at risk or design-build firm shall provide the public authority with separate performance and payment bonds. The penal sum of each bond shall equal one hundred per cent of the contract sum.

(B) If the contract sum increases at any time after the construction manager at risk or design-build firm provides surety bonds in accordance with paragraph (A) of this rule, the construction manager at risk or design-build firm shall cause the penal sum of each surety bond to be increased as necessary to maintain compliance with paragraph (A) of this rule. The delivery of written consent from the affected surety or sureties to the public authority by the construction manager at risk or design-build firm confirming the increased penal sums is a condition precedent to the public authority's obligation to pay the construction manager at risk or design-build firm for any portion of the work associated with the increase in the contract sum.

(C) If at any time prior to final payment to the construction manager at risk or the design-build firm, any surety providing a surety bond for the project (1) is adjudged bankrupt or has made a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors; (2) has liquidated all assets or has made a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors; (3) is placed in receivership; (4) otherwise petitions a state or federal court for protection from its creditors; or (5) allows its license to do business in Ohio to lapse or to be revoked, then the construction manager at risk or the design-build firm shall, within twenty-one days of any such action listed above, provide the public authority with new surety bonds in the form and amount described in the applicable subdivision of these rules. The delivery to the public authority by the construction manager at risk or design-build firm of replacement surety bonds is a condition precedent to the public authority's obligation to make any payment to the construction manager at risk or design-build firm.
