Clause 2 of the bond, which required payment upon a written demand 'without proof of the said default or conditions', only required a written statement that the subcontractor was in default and identification of an amount not exceeding the bonded sum; the 2 June 1999 demand satisfied those requirements and therefore triggered the bondsman's liability, entitling the plaintiff to summary judgment.
