§ 19.244 - Unit bond.  


Latest version.
  • Any person (or, in the case of a corporation, a corporation and its controlled subsidiaries) who would otherwise be required to give bonds for both operations at one or more distilled spirits plants (and any adjacent bonded wine cellars) and withdrawals from one or more distilled spirits plants within a reigon may, in lieu of furnishing separate bonds for operations and withdrawals, furnish a unit bond containing the terms and conditions of the bonds in lieu of which it is given. For the purpose of this section, a controlled subsidiary is a corporation where more than 50 percent of the voting power is controlled by the parent corporation. The unit bond shall show as to each plant covered by the bond the part of the total sum which represents the penal sum (computed in accordance with § 19.245) for operations at and withdrawals from each plant. If the penal sum of the bond covering a plant, or the penal sum allocated to any plant (if the bond covers more than one plant), is in an amount less than the maximum prescribed in § 19.245, operations at and/or withdrawals from such plant shall not exceed the quantity permissible as reflected by the penal sum in the bond for such plant. The unit bond shall be conditioned that the total amount of the bond shall be available for satisfaction of any liability incurred under the terms and conditions of such bond.
