Use of Funds The SUBRECIPIENT agrees to use said funds pursuant to this AGREEMENT to pay for necessary and reasonable costs allowable under federal law and regulations to operate said program only. Said amounts shall include and will be limited to, street outreach, emergency shelter, homelessness prevention, rapid re- housing assistance, housing relocation and stabilization services, short-term and medium-term rental assistance, and Homeless Management Information Systems ("HMIS") data contribution as set forth in 24 CFR § 576.101 - § 576.107. Allowable program costs are detailed in the Budget, as set forth in Exhibit B, attached hereto and by this reference incorporated herein. The SUBRECIPIENT'S failure to perform as required may, in addition to other remedies set forth in this AGREEMENT, result in readjustment of the amount of funds the CITY is otherwise obligated to pay to the SUBRECIPIENT pursuant to the terms hereof. The SUBRECIPIENT agrees that the homeless shelter/services under said program shall be available for the entire period during which said funds are provided. E. Condition of Funding (1) The CITY advises the SUBRECIPIENT that a significant change in entitlement funding may result in a change in the current process utilized by the CITY to determine funding allocations. The SUBRECIPIENT acknowledges that the obligation of the CITY is contingent upon the availability of Federal, State or Local government funds, which are appropriated or allocated for the payment of such an obligation. If funding levels are significantly affected by Federal budgeting or if funds are not allocated and available for the continuance of the function performed by the SUBRECIPIENT, this AGREEMENT may be terminated by the CITY at the end of the period for which funds are available. At the earliest opportunity, the CITY shall notify the SUBRECIPIENT of any service which may be affected by a shortage of funds. No penalty shall accrue to the CITY in the event this provision is exercised and the CITY shall not be liable for any damages as a result of termination under this provision of this AGREEMENT. Nothing herein shall be construed as obligating the CITY to expend funds in excess of appropriations authorized by law. (2) The SUBRECIPIENT shall allow representatives of the CITY or HUD to inspect facilities which are used in connection with the AGREEMENT or which implement programs funded under this AGREEMENT. F. Matching The SUBRECIPIENT is required to make matching contributions to supplement the ESG program in an amount that equals or exceeds the amount of ESG funds provided by HUD through the CITY. Such contributions shall be entirely consistent with the Matching Requirements as outlined by 24 CFR § 576.201. The anticipated source and amount of all matching funds contributed by the SUBRECIPIENT will be enumerated in Exhibit B, Final Budget. G. Program Income (1) Definition. Program income means, as provided by 24 CFR 8424 or 24 CFR 85.25, gross income received by the SUBRECIPIENT directly generated by a grant supported activity, or earned only as a result of the grant agreement during the grant period. For purposes of ESG, program income will also include any amount of a security or utility deposit returned to the SUBRECIPIENT. (2) Use. The SUBRECIPIENT shall use all income received from said funds only for the same purposes for which said funds may be expended pursuant to the terms and conditions of this AGREEMENT. (3) Counts toward Matching. Costs paid by program income may count toward meeting the matching requirements, provided the costs are eligible ESG costs that supplement the program. H. Separation of Accounts All funds received by the SUBRECIPIENT from the CITY pursuant to this AGREEMENT shall be maintained separate and apart from any other funds of the SUBRECIPIENT, or of any principal or member of the SUBRECIPIENT, in an account (the "Account") at a federally insured banking or savings and loan
