SCHEDULE 5: FORMS
5.1 Form for Performance Security
PERFORMANCE SECURITY
[On the letterhead of the institution issuing the security]
Date: ___/___/___
Performance Security Number: [#######]
To: UNOPS
[insert address of the Employer]
We have been informed that you have entered into a Contract dated [insert date] with [insert company name]
(hereinafter called the “Contractor”) titled [insert contract title] with Contract No. [insert number] for the [insert
name of the project] for certain works and services (hereinafter called the “Works”) to be undertaken by the
Contractor (hereinafter called the “Contract”).
We, irrevocably and unconditionally undertake with you that whenever you give written notice to us stating that in
your sole and absolute judgment the Contractor has failed to observe or perform any of the terms, conditions or
provisions of the Contract on its part to be observed or performed, we will, notwithstanding any objection which
may be made by the Contractor and without any right of set-off or counterclaim, immediately pay to you or as you
may direct such an amount as you may in such notice require not exceeding the sum of [insert amount equivalent
to 5 or 10 per cent of the Contract Price in words (and figures) with the relevant currency] (hereinafter called the
“Guaranteed Sum”).
This Performance Security (hereinafter called the “Guarantee”) is valid and will continue to be valid and
enforceable from the date of this letter for the Guaranteed Sum until the issue of the Final Completion Certificate.
The Guaranteed Sum may reduce to [2.5 or 5: select one] percent of the Contract Price upon the issue of the
Taking-Over Certificate for the whole of the Works. This Guarantee will automatically expire on the issue of the
Final Completion Certificate or, if a dispute arises under the Contract, after the final determination of that dispute,
whichever occurs later. Promptly after expiration of the Guarantee, UNOPS shall return the Guarantee to the
Contractor.
Any payment by us in accordance with this Guarantee must be in immediately available and freely transferable
[insert currency] free and clear of and without any deduction for or on account of any present or future taxes,
levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, set off, counterclaims, deductions or withholdings of any nature
whatsoever and by whomever imposed.
Our obligations under this Guarantee constitute direct primary, irrevocable and unconditional obligations, do not
require any previous notice to or claim against the Contractor and will not be discharged or otherwise prejudiced
or adversely affected by any:
● time, lenience or tolerance which you may grant to the Contractor;

● amendment, modification or extension which may be made to the Contract or the Works executed
under the Contract;
● intermediate payment or other fulfilment made by us;
● change in the constitution or organization of the Contractor; or
● other matter or thing which in the absence of this provision would or might have that effect, except a
discharge or amendment expressly made or agreed to by you in writing.
This Guarantee may not be assigned by you to any third party, without our prior written consent, which must not
be unreasonably withheld. You must notify us in writing of any assignment, after which we must make any
payment claimed under this Guarantee to the person, firm or company specified in the notice which will constitute
a full and valid release by us in relation to that payment.

Schedules
RFQ Ref. No.: [RFQ/202#/#####]
Any notice required by this Guarantee is deemed to be given when delivered (in the case of personal delivery) or
forty-eight (48) hours after being dispatched by prepaid registered post or recorded delivery (in the case of letter)
or as otherwise advised by and between the parties.
We agree that part of the Contract may be amended, renewed, extended, modified, compromised, released or
discharged by mutual agreement between you and the Contractor, and this Guarantee may be exchanged or
surrendered without in any way impairing or affecting our liabilities under this Guarantee without notice to us and
without the necessity of any additional endorsement, consent or guarantee by us, provided, however, that the
Guaranteed Sum does not increase or decrease.
No action, event or condition which by any applicable law may operate to free us from liability under this Guarantee
will have any effect. We waive any right we may have to apply such law so that in all respects our liability under this
Guarantee will be irrevocable and, except as stated in this Guarantee, unconditional in all respects.
Capitalized words and phrases used within this Guarantee have the same meanings as are given to them in the
Contract.
This Guarantee is governed by the Uniform Rules for Demand Guarantees, (2010 Revision), International
Chamber of Commerce Publication No. 758, provided that the supporting statement under Article 15 (a), and
Articles 34 and 35 are excluded. Any disputes arising out or in connection with this Guarantee, or the breach,
termination, or invalidity thereof will be referred to and finally resolved by arbitration in accordance with the United
Nations Commission on International Trade Law (UNCITRAL) Arbitration Rules then in effect, with the language
of the proceedings being English.
Nothing in or relating to this Guarantee shall be deemed a waiver, express or implied, of any of the privileges and
immunities of the United Nations, including its subsidiary organs, of which UNOPS is an integral part, which are
hereby expressly reserved.
IN WITNESS of which then [insert name if the institution issuing the Guarantee] has duly executed this
Guarantee on the date stated above.
