a Contractor Default and has requested and attempted to arrange a
conference with the Contractor and the Surety to be held not later than
fifteen days after receipt of such notice to discuss methods of performing
the Construction Contract. If the Owner, the Contractor and the Surety

concurrence, to be secured with performance and payment bonds
executed by a qualified surety equivalent to the bonds issued on the
Constitution Contract, and pay to the Owner the amount of damages as
described in Paragraph 6 in excess of the Balance of the Contract Price
incurred by the Owner resulting from the Contractor's default; or
4.4 Waive its right to perform and complete, arrange for completion, or
obtain a new contractor and with reasonable promptness under the
circumstances:
I. After investigation, determine the amount for which it may be

shall be entitled to enforce any remedy available to the Owner. If the Surety
proceeds as provided in Subparagraph 4.4, and the Owner refuses the payment
tendered or the Surety had denied liability, in whole or in part, without further
notice the Owner shall be entitled to enforce any remedy available to the Owner.
6. After the Owner has terminated the Contractor's right to complete the
Construction Contract, and if the Surety elects to act under Subparagraph 4.1,

the Contract Price shall not be reduced or set off on account of any such
unrelated obligations. No right of action shall accrue on this Bond to any
