Any Applicant who desires to file a formal protest to this ITN, must accompany that protest with a bond payable to the Coalition in an amount equal to one percent of the Coalition estimate of the total volume of the Contract or $5,000, whichever is less, which bond shall be conditioned upon the payments of all costs which may be adjudged against him in the administrative hearing in which the action is brought and in any subsequent appellate court proceeding. In lieu of a bond, the Coalition may accept a cashier's check or a money order in the amount of the bond. Failure to file the proper bond at the time of filing the formal protest will result in a denial of the protest.
