c. Any Distribution of any funds of the Project not permitted by this Agreement or Program Obligations shall be returned to the appropriate Project account as specified by HUD immediately.

If Borrower fails to submit the annual financial report within ninety (90) days of said due date, HUD may thereafter hire a Certified Public Accountant to prepare the report at the expense of Borrower. The report shall include a certification in content and form prescribed by HUD and certified by Borrower. The report shall be prepared and certified by a Certified Public Accountant who is licensed or certified by a regulatory authority of a state or other political subdivision of the United States, which authority makes the Certified Public Accountant subject to regulations, disciplinary measures, or codes of ethics prescribed by law. The Certified Public Accountant must have no business relationship with Borrower except for the performance of the audit and tax preparation unless HUD expressly authorizes other relationships. Auditing costs and tax preparation costs may be charged as an authorized expense to the Mortgaged Property only to the extent they are required of Borrower itself by state law, the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”), the Securities and Exchange Commission, or HUD. Neither IRS audit costs nor costs of tax preparation for Borrower’s partners, members, shareholders, or other persons receiving Distributions from Borrower may be charged to the Mortgaged Property as a Project expense. Non-profit Borrowers are to follow audit requirements specified in OMB Circular A-133, as revised.

Reasonable Operating Expenses do not include amounts paid for betterments as defined in the Property Jurisdiction or Improvements unless determined by HUD to be prudent and appropriate. When acquiring goods and services whose usual costs are expected to exceed the greater of $10,000 or five (5) percent of the gross annual revenue of the Mortgaged Property, Borrower shall solicit written cost estimates to ensure that prices paid by Borrower for Goods and Services, including the preparation of the annual statement, are competitive with prices paid in the area for Goods and Services of similar quality. Borrower shall keep copies of all written contracts or other instruments that affect the Mortgaged Property, all or any of which may be subject to inspection and examination by HUD at the Project or another mutually agreeable location.


25. RESPONSIVENESS TO INQUIRIES.

Assignment and subleasing of units by other than the tenant thereof without the prior written approval of Borrower shall be prohibited in the Lease. Upon discovery of any unapproved assignment, sublease or occupancy, Borrower shall, to the extent permitted by law, immediately demand cancellation and/or vacation of the premises, as appropriate, and notify HUD thereof.


31. TENANT SELECTION/OCCUPANCY.


a. If the Security Instrument is originally a HUD-held purchase money mortgage, or is originally endorsed for insurance under any Section of the National Housing Act, as amended, other than Section 231 units specially designed for use and occupancy of Elderly Persons exclusively, Borrower shall not, in selecting tenants, discriminate against any person or persons by reason of the fact that there are children in the family, unless in accordance with the Fair Housing Act and otherwise approved in writing by HUD.

d. All advertising or efforts to rent a project insured under Section 231 shall reflect a bona fide effort of Borrower to obtain occupancy by Elderly Persons.


32. RENTS. If the Project is subject to regulation of rent by HUD, HUD will at any time entertain a written request for a rent increase that is properly supported by substantiating evidence and HUD will, within a reasonable time: (a) approve a rental schedule that is necessary to compensate for any net increase, occurring since the last approved rental schedule, in taxes (other than income taxes) and operating and maintenance costs over which Borrower has no effective control; or (b) deny the increase and state the reasons for its decision.


33. CHARGES FOR SERVICES AND FACILITIES. If the Project is subject to regulation of rent by HUD, Borrower shall only charge to and receive from any tenant such amounts as have the prior written approval of HUD and are mutually agreed upon between Borrower and the tenant for any facilities and/or services not included in the HUD approved rent schedule that may be furnished by, or on behalf of, Borrower to such tenant upon request.


34.PROHIBITION OF CERTAIN FEES. Borrower shall not charge any Project tenant or prospective Project tenant any fees prohibited under Program Obligations; such prohibited fees may include an admission fee, founders fee, continuing care retirement community fee, life-care fee or similar payment pursuant to any agreement to furnish residential units or services to persons making such payments.

Upon assignment of the Note and Security Instrument to HUD, HUD may then proceed with the foreclosure of the Security Instrument;

vi. Collect reasonable attorney fees related to enforcing Borrower’s compliance with this Agreement.


c. Any forbearance by HUD in exercising any right or remedy under this Agreement or otherwise afforded by applicable law shall not be a waiver of or preclude the exercise of any right or remedy.

The damage to HUD as a result of Borrower’s breach of duties and obligations under this Agreement shall be, in the case of failure to maintain the Mortgaged Property as required by this Agreement, the cost of the repairs required to return the Project to decent, safe and sanitary condition and good repair. This contractual provision shall not abrogate or limit any other remedy or measure of damages available to HUD under any civil, criminal or common law.
