(1) If a bid is accepted, the deposits of all other bidders
shall be thereupon returned. If all bids are rejected, all deposits shall be returned forthwith.
(2) If the successful bidder fails or neglects to complete the purchase of the securities
within thirty days following the acceptance of his bid, or within ten days after the bonds are
made ready and are tendered by the district for delivery, whichever is later, the amount of his
deposit shall be forfeited to the district (but no bidder shall forfeit such deposit whenever the
securities are not ready and so tendered for delivery within sixty days from the date of the
acceptance of his bid), and the board may accept the bid of the person making the next best bid.
(3) If all bids are rejected, the board may readvertise the securities for sale in the same
manner as provided for the original advertisement or may sell the securities privately.
