The Claimant acknowledges that the Claimant is required to obtain a payment bond from the Contractor under Section 1421 of the Utah Code. If the Claimant fails to do so, the Claimant
is liable to each person who performed labor or services or supplied equipment or materials ("Subcontractors") in the event the Contractor does not pay the subcontractors, even if the
Claimant has paid the Contractor (Utah Code Section 1422). The Claimant acknowledges and agrees that the PST Fund will not reimburse the Claimant for such Subcontractors’ claims for
payment against the Claimant if the PST Fund has already made payment to the Claimant or Contractor. The Claimant understands that the premium paid for a payment bond is reimbursable.
