Ellen Kraus Feb 8, 2011:
i would interpret the term as "he will make a security deposit (bond money), after all it may happen that he ´ll be obliged to pay the sum determined by the Board.-

fournira un cautionnement

A "bond" is a specific type of security, namely a "cautionnement", as evidenced here by the fact that "the bond" shall be given "with such surety or sureties", which are the "cautions", i.e. the individuals who make themselves answerable under the bond.

See, for example, s. 68 of the Canadian Payments Association By-law No. 1 — General / art. 68 du Règlement administratif no 1 de l’Association canadienne des paiements — général (Canada)
Example sentence:

"68. The Board may require that any employee or agent of the Association furnish a bond for the faithful discharge of their powers and duties, in any form and with any surety that the Board may determine."

"68. Le conseil peut exiger de tout employé ou agent de l’Association qu’il fournisse, dans la forme et auprès du garant que le conseil peut fixer, un cautionnement garantissant qu’il exercera fidèlement ses fonctions."
