                the most recent award made before fiscal year 1996 to 
                the entity under the program (or if the entity has not 
                previously received such an award, 95 percent of the

                have made to the entity);
                    ``(B) for an award under the program made for the 
                second such fiscal year, 90 percent of the amount of

    ``(d) Ineligibility.--With respect to awards of grants and 
contracts under a program of any of parts C through F, in the case of a

the program for a fourth fiscal year for which the entity has failed to 
meet a criterion described in subsection (c)(1), the following applies:
            ``(1) The entity may not receive any further awards under 
        the program until the entity meets each such criterion.
            ``(2) If the entity meets each such criterion and receives 
        an award under the program, but subsequently fails to do so for 
        any fiscal year, the series of limitations described in 
        subsection (c)(2) shall be applied to further awards to the 
        entity under the program in the same manner and to the same 
        extent as the series was applied to the entity for the initial 
        4 fiscal years (after fiscal year 1995) for which the entity 
        failed to meet such a criterion.
