Any proposal which is not accompanied with proposal security in the form and amount required herein shall be rejected as nonconforming. The Owner shall have the right to retain the security of all Offerors to whom an award is being considered until either (i) the Contract has been unconditionally executed and delivered by the parties and any required payment and performance bonds, evidence of insurance and other submittals have been furnished, or (ii) all proposals have been rejected by the Owner without the acceptance of any proposal.
