About this file

This is a Bid Bond form template (Attachment C) issued by the State of Maryland for use in responding to the Veterans' and Fraternal Organizations Instant Ticket Lottery Machines and Central System contract opportunity. The bond document establishes a surety agreement between a principal bidder and a bonding company, guaranteeing the principal's commitment to execute a contract if their bid is accepted by the State. The bid bond specifies that if the State accepts a bidder's proposal, the principal must execute required contractual documents and provide any additional bonds within ten days of receiving the forms, or within ninety days if no specific period is designated. The bond remains valid for the standard ninety-day acceptance period unless extensions are granted, with notice waiver provisions allowing extensions up to an additional ninety calendar days.

The bid bond serves as a financial guarantee protecting the State against loss if a bidder fails to execute the contract or provide required bonding after bid acceptance. The surety agrees that its obligation will not be impaired by extensions of the acceptance period granted to the principal, with the Surety's consent to such extensions implied upon execution of the bond. The document accommodates individual, partnership, and corporate principals, requiring appropriate signatures, seals, and attestation. The form requires completion of specific fields including the bond number, principal name, surety information, bonding amount, and project identification details. Approval by the State's Assistant Attorney General is required before the bid bond becomes effective.
