    B - Surety is liable in full immediately upon default by Burns but will be entitled to the collateral upon satisfaction of the debt.

    Explanation:

    A surety comes to play when a party lacks certainty about whether or not another party in a contract will be able to fulfill all stated requirements. The other party could be required to provide a guarantor, who will be involved in the contract of suretyship. The essence of this is to reduce possible risks for the lending party.

    This surety bond involving 3 parties, allows the lending party, file a claim against the bond to recover losses incurred, if the borrower fails to adhere to the terms previously stated.
