This grant agreement will be governed by the Act, the Supportive Housing rule codified at 24 CFR 583, which is attached hereto and made a part hereof as Attachment B, and the Notice of Funding Availability(NOFA), that was published in two parts.The first part was the Policy Requirements and General Section of the NOFA,which was published June 11, 2010,at 75 FR 33323,and the second part was the Continuum of Care Homeless Assistance Programs section of the NOFA, which is located at http://www.hud.gov/offices/adm/grants/nofal0/grpcoc.cfm.

Further,the said limited partnership shall own the project site throughout that twenty-year period.If grant funds were not used for acquisition,rehabilitation or new construction,then the period shall not be twenty years, but shall be for the term of the grant agreement and any renewal thereof.

A default shall consist of any use of grant funds for a purpose other than as authorized by this Grant Agreement, failure in the Recipient's duty to provide the supportive housing for the minimum term in accordance with the requirements of the Attachment A provisions, noncompliance with the Act or Attachment B provisions, any other material breach of the Grant Agreement, or misrepresentations in the application submissions which, if known by HUD,would have resulted in this grant not being provided.
