FIRST: To pay Agency $________________________________ per annum (where applicable) for the Bail Bond. The premium is fully earned upon the release of the Principal. The fact that Defendant may have been improperly arrested or his bail reduced or his case dismissed shall not obligate the return of any portion of the said premium. This bond is renewable each year if applicable to your State. Indemnitor(s) agrees to pay to Agency a renewal premium in the amount stated above, twelve months after the date on which this bond was executed. If said renewal premium is not paid upon written demand, Agency and/or Company have the right to surrender Principal and exonerate the bond pursuant to state regulations.

Where, as a result of judicial action, bail has been increased, and no collateral or insufficient collateral, in the sole discretion of Agency and/or Company, is furnished to indemnify against such increase in the bail, Agency or Company may demand such collateral as will indemnify them against such increased bail.

SIXTH: To pay Agency and/or Company immediately upon demand for any default or breach of the terms and conditions included herein.

NINTH: Agency and/or Company shall not surrender Principal to custody prior to the time specified in the Bail Bond for the appearance of the Principal, or prior to any occasion when the presence of the Principal in Court is lawfully required, without returning all premium paid.
