The bond amount describes the limit of the bond obligation, not the price. A listed amount does not establish what the requesting party requires. The premium is what you pay and must be confirmed for the actual option. An E&O limit, where listed, is separate errors and omissions insurance.

Questions about this bond
Can I shorten a combined office title?
Use the wording the receiving office requires so the bonded capacity is clear.
Do two responsibilities always require two bonds?
Follow the particular request and accepted form. The title alone does not answer that question.
When is the filing complete?
Follow the receiving authority's process for the issued instrument; submitting an application is not the filing step.
