NOW, THEREFORE, the condition of the foregoing obligation is such that:
1. If the Principal faithfully performs all its obligations under the NC SAFE Act

such notice shall not affect any liability arising prior to the effective date of cancellation of this
surety bond; and, the Principal and Surety shall be and remain liable for a period of five (5) years

the Commissioner.
3. In no event shall the aggregate liability of the Surety for any and all claims to one
or more claimants hereunder exceed the principal sum of the surety bond. Provided, however,

Commissioner that such amount has not been paid by Principal, Surety agrees to and will
promptly (within thirty (30) days) remit the payment as instructed by the Commissioner.
