Whereas, the City of Redlands ("City"), State of California, and Abboud Diamond
Construction, Inc. (hereinafter designated as "Principal") have entered into an agreement dated
July 15, 2025 ("Agreement") whereby Principal agrees to install and complete certain public
improvements (the "Work"), which said Agreement is identified as FCS05292025KG Animal
Services Onsite Improvements for Modular Kennel Installation and is hereby referred to and made
a part hereof; and
Whereas, said Principal is required under the terms of the Agreement to furnish a bond for
the faithful performance of the Work, now, therefore, we, the Principal and,
The Ohio Casualty Insurance Company , as Surety, are held and firmly bound unto the City in the
penal sum of Five Hundred Seventy Nine Thousand Seven Hundred Dollars ($579,700) lawful
money of the United States, for the payment of which sum we bind ourselves, and our heirs,
successors, executors and administrators, jointly and severally, firmly by these presents.
The condition of this obligation is such that if the above bounded Principal, his or its heirs,
executors, administrators, successors or assigns, shall in all things stand to and abide by, and well
and truly keep and perform the covenants, conditions and provisions in the Agreement and any
alteration thereof made as therein provided, on his or its part, to be kept and performed at the time
and in the manner therein specified, and in all respects according to their true intent and meaning,
and shall faithfully fulfill the one-year guarantee of all materials and workmanship, and shall
defend, indemnify and save harmless the City and its elected officials, officers, agents and
employees, as therein stipulated, then this obligation shall become null and void; otherwise it shall
be and remain in full force and effect.
As a part of the obligation secured hereby and in addition to the face amount specified
therefor, there shall be included costs and reasonable expenses and fees, including reasonable
attorneys' fees, incurred by the City in successfully enforcing such obligations, all to be taxed as
costs and included in the judgment rendered.
As a condition precedent to the satisfactory completion of the Work, the above obligation
shall hold good for a period of one (1) year or longer if required by the Agreement after the
acceptance of the work by the City, during which time if the Principal shall fail to make full,
complete, and satisfactory repair and replacements and totally protect the City from loss or damage
made evident during this period 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 obligations of Surety hereunder shall continue so long as
any obligation of the Principal remains.
Whenever the Principal shall be, and is declared by the City to be, in default under the
Agreement, the City having performed the City obligations thereunder, the Surety shall promptly
remedy the default, or shall promptly, at the City's option:
Complete the Work in accordance with its terms and conditions; or
2. Obtain a bid or bids for completing the Work 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 City, and make available as work progresses

sufficient funds to pay the cost of completion of the Work less the balance of the Agreement price,
but not exceeding, including other costs and damages for which Surety may be liable hereunder,
the amount set forth above. The term "balance of the Agreement price," as used in this paragraph,
shall mean the total amount payable to the Principal by the City under the Agreement and any
modifications thereto, less the amount previously properly paid by the City to the Principal.
Surety expressly agrees that the City may reject any contractor or subcontractor which may
be proposed by Surety in fulfillment of its obligations in the event of default by the Principal.
Surety shall not utilize the Principal in completing the Work nor shall Surety accept a bid
from the Principal for completion of the Work if the City, when declaring the Principal in default,
notifies Surety of the City's objection to the Principal's further participation in the completion of
the Work.
No right of action shall accrue on the bond to or for the use of any person or corporation
other than the City named herein or the successors or assigns of the City. Any suit under this bond
must be instituted within the applicable statute of limitations period.
The said Surety, for value received, hereby stipulates and agrees that no change, extension
of time, alteration or addition to the terms of the Agreement or to the work to be performed
thereunder or the Specifications accompanying the same shall in any way affect its obligations on
this bond, and it does hereby waive notice of any such change, extension of time, alteration or
addition to the terms of the Agreement or to the work or to the specifications.
No final settlement between the City and the Principal shall abridge the right of any
beneficiary hereunder whose claim may be unsatisfied.
The Principal and Surety agree that if the City is required to engage the services of any
attorney in connection with the enforcement of this bond, each shall pay the City's reasonable
attorneys' fees incurred, with or without suit, in addition to the above sum.
In witness whereof, this instrument has been duly executed by the Principal and Surety
