Model A Agreement
<br />2. Creation of Restricted Fund/Variance Power. Beginning on the Effective Date, CVOC shall place
<br />all gifts, grants, contributions, and other revenues received by CVOC and identified with the Project into a

<br />reported as the income of CVOC, for both tax purposes and for purposes of CVOC's financial statements.
<br />CVOC shall exercise full control over the Project's financial administration, management and
<br />disbursements from the Fund. It is the intent of the parties that this Agreement be interpreted to provide
<br />CVOC with variance powers necessary to enable CVOC to treat the restricted fund as CVOC's asset in
<br />accordance with Statement No. 136 issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board while this
<br />Agreement is in effect.
<br />3. Project Activities and Sponsorship Policies. All community programs, public information work,
<br />fundraising events, processing and acknowledgment of cash and non-cash revenue items, accounts
<br />payable and receivable, negotiation of leases and contracts, disbursement of the Project funds (including
<br />grants), and other activities conducted by the Project, shall be the ultimate responsibility of CVOC and
<br />shall be conducted in the name of CVOC, beginning on the Effective Date.

<br />services, as set forth in attached Exhibit 2 and Exhibit 3, to be paid to the general fund of CVOC from the
<br />Fund. Such fees, interest, and charges are necessary to compensate CVOC for its services provided in
<br />administering the Project, and thus become unrestricted rather than restricted assets when paid to the
<br />general fund of CVOC. The Fiscal Sponsorship Policies pertaining to fees, interest, and charges set forth in
<br />Exhibit 2 may be amended from time to time by CVOC in its sole discretion with 60 day advance notice to
<br />the City.

<br />funding source, employer, or any party other than CVOC. Neither the City nor any of its members shall
