6.2.2 The following are terms under which funding techniques for administrative co:

hall be implemented for all transfers
of funds to which the funding technique is applied in section 6.3.2 of this Agreement.

There are currently no funding techniques listed in Section 6.2.2.

6.2.3 The following are terms under which miscellaneous funding techniques shall be implemented for all transfers of funds to
which the funding technique is applied in section 6.3.2 of this Agreement.

There are currently no funding techniques listed in Section 6.2.3.

6.2.4 The following are terms under which State unique funding techniques shall be implemented for all transfers of funds to which
the funding technique is applied in section 6.3.2 of this Agreement.

Funding Technique Name Description

Bi-weekly Draws The State shall draw down funds for allocated, indirect, and incidental administrative
costs at bi-weekly intervals. The request shall be made on each state payday and in
accordance with the appropriate Federal agency cut-off time specified in Exhibit I.
The amount of funds drawn each bi-weekly period for allocated, indirect costs and
incidental administrative costs shall be a pro-rata share of the quarterly grant award
for such costs. The quarterly grant award shall be prorated based on the number of
paydays in each calendar quarter. This funding technique is interest neutral.
Reimbursable Funding The State shall request funds upon determination of the reimbursable costs incurred by
the State. The request shall be made in accordance with the appropriate Federal
agency cut-off specified in Exhibit I. The amount of the request shall be the actual
sum of expenditures that have been incurred, recorded, identified and reconciled as
billable since the last draw cycle request was processed. In all the cases the request for
funds will occur after the state has disbursed funds. If both the State and Federal
Government fulfill the specific elements and timing of this funding technique, the
State voluntarily waives Federal interest liabilities resulting from the State prior
expenditure funding technique. This funding technique is interest neutral.

6.3 Application of Funding Techniques to Programs

6.3.1 The State shall apply the following funding techniques when requesting Federal funds for the component cash flows of the
programs listed in sections 4.2 and 4.3 of this Agreement.

6.3.2 Programs
Below are programs listed in Section 4.2 and Section 4.3.

Proration of calculations: If less than total program funding is subject to interest calculation procedures, the resulting interest
liability calculations shall be prorated to 100% of program funding.

8.6 State Interest Liabilities

8.6.1 The State shall be liable for interest on Federal funds from the date Federal funds are credited to a State account until the
date those funds are paid out for program purposes.

8.6.2 The State shall use the following method to calculate State interest liabilities on Federal funds:
8.6.2.1 Measuring Time Funds Are Held

To determine the total time Federal funds are held, the State shall measure the time between the date Federal funds are received and
credited to a State's account and the date those funds are debited from the State's account.

8.6.2.2 Source of Data

Central Accounting System:

The time period from the date federal funds are deposited to the date checks are issued shall be determined from
information captured by state's central accounting system.

8.6.2.3 Standards Applied

The average daily cash balance of Federal Funds in the program's account reflects the actual activity of each draw from the date of
deposit to the date of issuance or clearance, whichever is pertinent.

8.6.2.4 Calculation Procedure

Average Daily Balance:
T= ADB xR, where

1 = State's total interest liability

ADB = Average Daily Balance of cash in a program's account, measured from deposit to clearance

R= Annualized rate equal to the average equivalent yields of 13-week Treasury bills auctioned during a State's fiscal year
9.0 REVERSE FLOW PROGRAMS

The State is not required to cover any reverse flow programs under the terms of this Agreement because the State does not
participate in the program.

10.0 INTEREST CALCULATION COSTS

10.1 As set forth in 31 CFR 205.27, interest calculation costs are defined as those costs necessary for the actual calculation of
interest, including the cost of developing and maintaining clearance patterns in support of the interest calculations. Interest
calculation costs do not include expenses for normal disbursing services, such as processing of checks or maintaining records for
accounting and reconciliation of cash balances, or expenses for upgrading or modernizing accounting systems. Interest
calculation costs in excess of $50,000 in any year are not eligible for reimbursement, unless the State provides justification with

the annual report.

10.2 The State expects to incur the following types of interest calculation costs:

The Division of Information Technology within the Department of Administration shall provide all the data used in the determination of
the appropriate clearance patterns.

7.3 The sources of data the State shall use when developing its clearance patterns are as follows:

The State's central and subsidiary accounting systems which contain the "check date" data, and the State's depository banks, at which
demand deposit (checking) accounts are maintained, from which federal grant programs disbursements are made, will provide a
computer tape of disbursements from the State's bank accounts to identify the date of withdrawal of funds for each check.

7.4 The State shall use the following methodology when developing its clearance patterns:

When developing each clearance pattern, the State shall track at least 99% of the funds disbursed, from issuance to clearance, for a
period of at least three months.

(5) date funds were requested
8.2 Federal Interest Liabilities

8.2.1 A Federal interest liability shall accrue from the day the State pays out its own funds for program purposes to the day Federal
funds are credited to a State account. With regard to funds transferred out of the Federal Highway Trust Fund, if a State does not bill
at least weekly for current project costs, the Federal interest liability shall not accrue prior to the day the State submits a request for
funds.

8.2.2 The State shall use the following method to calculate Federal interest liabilities:

For all transactions where the State pays out its own funds for program purposes prior to receiving Federal funds, the State shall track
each payment from the date it is paid out of a State account to the date Federal funds are subsequently credited to a State account to
cover that outlay. The Federal interest liability on each payment shall be based on the difference in whole days between the two events.
With Federal-State matching programs, interest shall be calculated on the Federal percentage of the disbursement.

8.3 The Unemployment Trust Fund

8.3.1 The State shall use the following method to calculate State interest liabilities on funds withdrawn from the several accounts
in the Unemployment Trust Fund:

Federal and State Funds are Interest Neutral:

There are no interest earnings on funds withdrawn from the State account, as the State has implemented estimated clearance, an interest-
neutral funding technique, for such transfers. For transfers from the UTF that do not follow the technique specified in section 6.2 and
result in a positive balance of funds in a State account, the State's liability for interest on funds withdrawn from its account in the UTF
shall consist of the actual interest earnings of the benefit payment account on the pro-rata share less the related banking costs attributed
to such funds.

8.4 Refund Liabilities

8.4.1 The State shall be liable for interest on refunds from the date the refund is credited to a State account until the date the refund
is debited from the State account for program purposes. The State shall apply a $50,000 refund transaction threshold below which
the State shall not incur or calculate interest liabilities on refunds. A transaction is defined as a single deposit.

8.4.2 For each refund, the State shall maintain information identifying:

(1) date a refund is credited to a State account

(2) date of the subsequent deposit of Federal funds against which the refund is offset
(3) amount of the refund

8.4.3 The State shall use the following methodology to calculate interest liabilities on refunds:

Refunds Deposited to Interest Neutral Programs:

With programs to which applicable interest neutral funding techniques are applied, the State interest liability shall be based on the
difference in whole days between the date the refund is deposited in a State account and the date the refund is offset against a
subsequent deposit of Federal funds.

8.5 Exemptions

8.5.1 Where more than one State agency is a recipient of Federal funds under a program, a particular State agency's funding may be
excluded from interest calculation procedures if the State agency receives an amount of funds less than 5

% of the State's threshold for major Federal assistance programs. Notwithstanding this potential exemption, however, in no case
shall less than 90% of a program's total funding be subject to interest calculation procedures.

7.5 The State shall identify for each check or warrant (hereafter, check) in the population: (1) the date the check was released
for payment; (2) the date the check was debited from the State's account, and, (3) the amount of the check.

7.6 The State shall use the following method to calculate the dollar-weighted average day of clearance:

To determine the number of days each check was outstanding (clearance time), the issue date shall be subtracted from the date the

check cleared the State's account.

To determine the percentage of the disbursement paid out each day following issuance, the amount of the checks that clear the
State's account each day shall be summed and then divided by the amount of the total disbursement.

For each day following issuance, the clearance time of the checks paid out that day shall be multiplied by the percentage of the total
disbursement those checks represent. This product is the clearance factor.

The dollar-weighted average day of clearance for the disbursement shall be determined by summing the clearance factor of each day
following the disbursement.

7.7 The State shall adjust each clearance pattern to reflect the dollar-weighted proportion of funds paid out by EFT/Direct payroll,
with the following exceptions:

None

The State shall also adjust each clearance pattern to reflect:

None

7.8 Each of the State's clearance patterns is calculated in Calendar days.

7.9 An authorized State official shall certify that each clearance pattern developed by the State accurately corresponds to the
clearance activity of the programs to which it is applied. This certification shall be provided to the Fiscal Service prior to the
effective date of the Agreement. The State shall recertify its clearance patterns at least every five years.

7.10 The State shall follow the procedures of 31 CFR 205 if it has actual or constructive knowledge, at any time, that a clearance
pattern does not correspond to a program's clearance activity.

Additional guidance on this policy is available from the respective CMS Regional Office, U.S. Department of Health & Human
Services.

The State will comply with the following guidelines when requesting supplemental funding for TANF (CFDA 93.558), CCDF
(CFDA 93.575), CSE (93.563), and the FC/AA (CFDA 93.658 and CFDA 93.659) programs administered by the
U.S. Department of Human Services, Administration for Children and Families (HHS/ACF):

a. Timing of the Request

A State should initiate its request for supplemental funding during a quarter as soon as it becomes aware of the fact that a shortfall
does/will exist. For the TANF and CCDF grants, supplemental funding requests (estimates) may be submitted by a State, for
consideration by ACF, up through and including the 15th day of the third month of the first, second or third quarter of any fiscal year.
Since TANF and CCDF are block grant programs, all unawarded portions of the annual allotment will automatically be issued at the
beginning of the fourth quarter. Therefore, supplemental funding requests will not be available during the fourth quarter for these
programs. For the CSE and FC/AA programs, supplemental funding requests may be submitted by a state, for consideration by ACF,
up through and including the 15th day of the third month of any quarter of a fiscal year.

b. Justification for the Request

The request for a supplemental funding for any of the above-mentioned programs should contain a justification clearly documenting
the need for the additional funding authority during the current quarter. This documentation should be in the form of State accounting
records or similar documents that will show the actual expenditures through the most recent month for which such data are available,
as well as the State's most accurate projection of its anticipated expenditures during the remaining month(s) of the quarter. For either
the TANF or the CCDF program, the State's justification should also include an explanation of the activities requiring the obligation
and/or expenditure of amounts that exceed the normal quarterly grant award restrictions and why these activities could not have been
delayed until the next quarter.

c. Form Submittal
Supplemental funding requests should be made by completing the appropriate ACF quarterly report of expenditures and estimates
applicable to the particular program for which the grant award request is being made.

d. Approval Process

Upon receipt of the state's request for additional funding authority for a quarter, the ACF Regional Office will promptly review the
supporting documentation. If the request is properly justified, so long as ACF has adequate funding availability, the State's request
will be expedited and supplemental funding will be issued within 5 days of ACF receiving the request. The State will be notified by
the Regional Office when the supplemental award has been transmitted to the Payment Management System (PMS) and when it
may initiate drawdowns against the supplemental funding.

Additional guidance on this policy is provided in the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services, Administration for Children
and Families, letter (May 19, 2004) to State Administrators from the Deputy Assistant Secretary for Administration.

6.2 Description of Funding Techniques

6.2.1 The following are terms under which standard funding techniques shall be implemented for all transfers of funds to which the
funding technique is applied in section 6.3.2 of this Agreement.

Funding Technique Name Description

Actual Clearance, ZBA - ACH The State shall request funds such that they are deposited by ACH in a State account
on the settlement date of payments issued by the State. The request shall be made in
accordance with the appropriate Federal agency cut-off time specified in Exhibit I.
The amount of the request shall be for the amount of funds that clear the State's
account on the settlement date. This funding technique is interest neutral.
