If required in Table 1, each proposal shall be accompanied by a Proposal Bond issued by a surety company authorized by license to write insurance contracts in New York State and rated "A" or better by A. M. Best Company, Inc. in Best's Key Rating Guide, and otherwise acceptable to the BPU, or by a certified check on solvent bank in an amount of at least ten percent (10%) of the amount bid, as an evidence of good faith that the Bidder will, within ten (10) days after the date of notification that its Proposal has been accepted, enter into a contract with the Board of Public Utilities of the City of Jamestown (BPU), New York, to execute its proposal. If a certified check is furnished, it shall be drawn to the order of the Treasurer of the City of Jamestown, New York. If a Proposal Bond is furnished, it shall be on the blank form attached hereto.
