(d) Payments Not To Exceed Net Expenditures The Contractor agrees that if, for any reason whatsoever, the Contractor shall spend dur- ing the term of the Agreement for the purposes set forth herein an amount less than agreed, the total County payment herein shall be reduced to the amount of approved actual Contractor ex- penditures made for such purposes, and that the total amount to be paid by the County during the contract term shall not exceed approved actual net expenditures or the Total Cost of the Agree- ment on the cover page and in the Budget, whichever is less. (e) Taxes The charges payable to the Contractor under this Agreement are exclusive of federal, state and local taxes, the County being a municipality exempt from the payment of such taxes. (f) Agreement Subject to Appropriation of Funds This Agreement is subject to the amount of funds appropriated and any subsequent modifi- cations thereof by the Suffolk County Legislature, and no liability shall be incurred by the County under this Agreement beyond the amount of funds appropriated by the Legislature for the program covered by this Agreement. (g) Payments Contingent upon State/Federal Funding Payments under this Agreement are subject to and contingent upon continued funding by the State and/or Federal Government(s). If, for any reason, the full amount of such funding is not made available to the County, this Agreement may be terminated in whole or in part, or the amount payable to the Contractor may be reduced, at the discretion of Aging, provided that any such termination or reduction shall not apply to allowable costs incurred by the Contractor prior to such termination or reduction to the extent that funds are available to Aging for payment of such costs. (h) Payments Contingent upon Receipt of State/Federal Aid If any State or Federal government department or agency funding this Agreement in whole or in part should fail to approve aid in reimbursement to the County for payments made here- under by the County to the Contractor for expenditures made during the term of this Agreement because of any act, omission or negligence on the part of the Contractor, then the County may deduct and withhold from any payment due to the Contractor an amount equal to the reimburse- ment denied by such department or agency, and the County's obligation shall be reduced by any such amounts. In such an event, if there should be a balance due to the County after it has made a final payment to the Contractor, the Contractor agrees promptly to reimburse the County the amount of the balance due the County by check to the order of the Suffolk County Treasurer. The provisions of this subparagraph shall survive the expiration or termination of the Agreement. (i) Other Governmental Funding If the program of the Contractor which is the subject of this Agreement is funded in whole or in part by contracts with other governmental agencies, it is agreed that the funds of the County under this Agreement shall be refunded to the County to the extent that the local funding from all such sources exceeds the total expenditures of the Contractor for the program. (j) Post-Audit All payments made under this Agreement are subject to audit by the Suffolk County Comptrol- ler pursuant to Article V of the Suffolk County Charter. The Contractor further agrees that the County Comptroller and Aging shall have access to and the right to examine, audit, excerpt, copy or tran- scribe any pertinent transactions or other records relating to services under this Agreement. If such an AG A 1 F (3/07) Page 3 of 20 pages of Exhibit A 1 F aga1 F (fo&-f-I) rev 3-28-07 , , . ' . ' audit discloses overpayments by the County to the Contractor, within thirty (30) days after the issu- ance of an official audit report by the Comptroller or his duly designated representatives, the Contrac- tor shall repay the amount of such overpayment by check to the order of the Suffolk County Treasurer or shall submit a proposed plan of repayment to the Comptroller. If there is no response or if satisfac- tory repayments are not made, the County may recoup overpayments from any amounts due or be- coming due to the Contractor from the County under this Agreement or otherwise. (k) Set-Off Rights The County shall have all of its common law, equitable, and statutory rights of set-off. These rights shall include, but not be limited to, the County's option to withhold, for the purposes of set-off, any moneys due to the Contractor under this contract up to any amounts due and ow- ing to the County with regard to this contract and/or any other contract with any County depart- ment or agency, including any contract for a term commencing prior to the term of this contract, plus any amounts due and owing to the County for any other reason including, without limitation, tax delinquencies, fee delinquencies or monetary penalties relative thereto. The County shall ex- ercise its set-off rights in accordance with normal County practices including, in cases of set-off pursuant to an audit, the finalization of such audit by the County agency, its representatives, or the County Comptroller, and only after legal consultation with the County Attorney. 5. Accounting Procedures (a) The Contractor shall maintain separate records of account concerning all costs in- curred by the Contractor in the performance of this Agreement and all income relating to the pro- gram funded under this Agreement and consents to audit and inspection by the County, New York State and the Federal Government of all facilities, books and other financial and statistical data, whether related to this Agreement or otherwise (in the case of towns or other municipal cor- porations, only as they relate to this Agreement). Such records shall be maintained for a period of seven (?) years from the date of termination or expiration of this Agreement. Specific records shall be kept as to the hours of all personnel. (b) The Contractor shall comply, for the program funded under this Agreement, with the "Regulations for Accounting Procedures for Contract Agencies," promulgated by the Department of Audit and Control of Suffolk County, and any amendments during the Term of this Agreement. 6. Financial Statements and Audit Requirements (a) Notwithstanding any other reporting or certification requirements of Federal, State or local authorities, the Contractor shall obtain the services of an independent licensed public ac- countant or certified public accountant (the "Auditor") to audit its financial statements for each Contractor fiscal year in which the Contractor has received, or will receive, $300,000 or more from the County, whether under this Agreement or otherwise, and shall submit a report on the overall financial condition and operations of the Contractor, including a balance sheet and state- ment of income and expenses, attested by the Auditor as fairly and accurately reflecting the ac- counting records of the Contractor in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The Contractor is encouraged to solicit requests for proposals (RFPs) from a number of qualified accounting firms and to review carefully the costs of, and qualifications for, this type of work be- fore selecting the Auditor. (b) The Auditor should be required to meet the following minimum requirements: (i) a current license issued by the New York State Education Department; AG A 1 F (3/0?) Page 4 of 20 pages of Exhibit A 1 F ag81 F (Iee-'-sl rev 3-26-07 . ' . , . . (ii) sufficient auditing experience in the nonprofit, governmental or profit-making areas, as applicable; and (iii) a satisfactory peer review issued within not more than three years prior to the date when the Auditor was selected to conduct the audit. (c) The audit must be conducted in accordance with generally accepted governmental auditing standards (GAGAS). Financial statements must clearly differentiate between County-funded programs and other programs that the Contractor may be operating. The use of subsidiary schedules should be encouraged for this purpose. The Auditor must also prepare a management letter based on the audit. (d) Furthermore, if the Contractor is a non-profit organization or unit of local govern- ment and expends $500,000 or more of Federal monies, whether as a recipient expending awards received directly from Federal awarding agencies, or as a sub recipient expending Federal awards received from a pass-through entity, such as New York State or Suffolk County, during any fiscal period within which it receives funding under this Agreement ("fiscal year"), the audit must be con- ducted, and the audit report ("Single Audit Report") must be, in accordance with OMB Circular No. A-133 (revised June 27,2003). Single Audit Reports must also be submitted to the designated clearinghouse, cognizant agency and/or pass-through entity, to the extent required by the OMB Circular just referred to. (e) The Contractor must submit a statement in writing, certified by its chief financial officer, which states the amount of Federal funding expended by the Contractor during such fiscal year. The Contractor must mail or deliver the certified statement to Aging and to the Executive Director of Auditing Services, Suffolk County Department of Audit and Control, H. Lee Dennison Building, 100 Veterans Memorial Highway, P. O. Box 6100, Hauppauge, New York 11788-0099, as soon as possible after the end of the Contractor's fiscal year. The statement should include ALL Federal funding received directly from the Federal government and ALL Federal funds passed through from the County and other pass-through entities (f) Copies of all financial statements, management letters, Single Audit Reports (if ap- plicable) and other audit reports, if required, must be transmitted to Aging and to the Executive Director at the address just set forth. The reports must be submitted within thirty (30) days after completion of the audit, but in no event later than nine (9) months after the end of the Contrac- tor's fiscal period to which the audit relates. (g) These requirements do not preclude Aging or the Suffolk County Comptroller or their authorized representatives or Federal or State auditors from auditing the records of the Con- tractor. Therefore, the records of the Contractor must be made available to authorized represen- tatives of Federal, State or County government for that purpose. (h) All payments made under this Agreement are subject to audit by the Suffolk County Comptroller pursuant to Article V of the Suffolk County Charter. If the Contractor fails to cooper- ate with an audit by the Comptroller, the County shall have the right to suspend or partially with- hold payments under this Agreement or under any other agreement between the parties until such cooperation is forthcoming. If such an audit discloses overpayments by the County to the Con- tractor, within thirty (30) days after the issuance of an official audit report by the Comptroller or his duly designated representatives, the Contractor shall repay the amount of such overpayment by check to the order of the Suffolk County Treasurer or shall submit a proposed plan of repayment to the Comptroller. If there is no response or if satisfactory repayments are not made, the County AG A 1 F (3/07) Page 5 of 20 pages of Exhibit A 1 F agatF (fee-f-s)rBV 3-28-Q7 '. . . may recoup overpayments from any amounts due or becoming due to the Contractor from the County under this Agreement or otherwise.

Written approval of the County is required before the Contractor may proceed with the proposed purchase, rental, or lease of furniture, fixtures, or equipment. All items purchased will be new unless specifically described otherwise in the Budget. (b) Purchase Practices The Contractor agrees to follow all of the general practices that are designed to ob- tain furniture, fixtures, equipment, materials or supplies at the most reasonable price or cost pos- sible. The County reserves the right to purchase or obtain for the Contractor furniture, fixtures, equipment, materials or supplies which shall be in accordance with the programmatic needs of this Agreement. If the County exercises this right, the amount budgeted for the items so pur- chased or obtained by the County for the Contractor shall not be available to the Contractor for any purpose whatsoever. Title to any such items purchased or otherwise obtained by the County for the Program and entrusted to the Contractor shall remain in the County, and the Contractor shall attach labels indicating the County's ownership if the County has not done so. (c) Proprietary Interest of County The County shall retain a proprietary interest in all furniture, removable fixtures, equipment, materials or supplies purchased or obtained by the Contractor and paid for or reim- bursed to the Contractor pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any prior agreement.

Each meal must meet 1/3 of the recommended dietary allowance. Special low salt and basic diabetic diets must be provided to those clients requiring such upon physician's order. The meal pattern and the amounts must follow those set forth by the New York State Office for the Aging. All aspects of food preparation and service must meet the standards of the Suffolk County Department of Health Services, e.g., safe temperature of food - hot entree always served at a minimum of 140oF, salad and other cold items served at 41 of or below, and horne-delivered meals delivered in 2 hours or under.

D. All congregate sites will develop and maintain a Site Council to operate in an advisory capacity for the program. The Site Council shall be composed of participants in the nutrition program. 3. Contributions The Contractor has the obligation to inform each recipient of the service of the opportunity to make a free, willing and anonymous contribution toward the cost of the service. Service may not be denied if a person is unable or unwilling to make a contribution. The Contractor must maintain an audit trail of all incoming contributions and make monthly reports of any contributions received. All contributions must be used to enhance services. All printed materials used for the program must include the sources of funding for the Program and must include the following information: Contributions to this (these) service(s) are free and voluntary.

Each recipient of service must be informed in writing of the opportunity to contribute at least annually. In the congregate setting, the Contractor must provide a locked box and envelopes for the suggested meal donations for the participants in order to protect the confidentiality of program participants' identities and the amount which they contribute.
