Section 6205 - License bond

A bond in the penal sum of five thousand dollars ($5000) shall accompany every application for license. Such bond shall be executed by a surety company authorized by the laws of Pennsylvania to transact business within this Commonwealth. The bond shall be renewed and refiled annually not later than June first for the first three consecutive years from the date on which the licensee was first licensed. The bond shall be executed to the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and shall be for the use of the Commonwealth and for any person or persons who may have a cause of action against the licensee. The condition of the bond shall be that the licensee will comply with and abide by all the provisions of this act and all the rules and regulations of the Secretary of Banking, lawfully issued in accordance with this act and that the licensee will pay to the Commonwealth, to the Secretary of Banking, or to any person or persons, and any and all monies that may come due to the Commonwealth, to the Secretary of Banking, or to any person or persons, from the said licensee under and by virtue of the provisions of this act. If any person shall be aggrieved by the misconduct of a licensee and shall recover judgment against such licensee, such person may, on any execution issued under such judgment, maintain an action upon the bond of the licensee in any court having jurisdiction of the amount claimed, provided the Secretary of Banking assents thereto.

A separate bond shall be provided for each place of business conducted by a licensee. After the licensee has been continuously licensed for three (3) consecutive years, such bond shall not be renewed or refiled unless the Secretary of Banking has reason to believe that such bond is necessary and notifies the licensee in writing on or before May 1 that such bond is required.
