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.

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

Deposit to Clearance:
‘To determine the total time Federal funds are held, the State shall measure the time between the date Federal funds are
received and credit 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 deposit to issuance shall be determined from information captured by TAMI (Treasury Automated
Management information System). TAMI is an electronic cash receipt system that provides bank validation dates for
accounting transactions and can be used to determine when a deposit was made. AdvantageME (State accounting
system) and the GQL Warehouse (Database of archived accounting transactions) can be queried to provide dates of
check issuance/s in relation to the date of deposit.

8.6.2.3 Standards Applied

Census (Average Daily Balance):
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

| = ADB x R/365 x T , where

{ = 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
365 = Calendar days

T = Days of State Liability

the disbursement, in accordance with the clearance pattern specified in Exhibit II. The request shall be made in
accordance with the appropriate Federal agency cut-off time specified in Exhibit |. The amount of the request shall be for
the exact amount of that disbursement. This funding technique is interest neutral.

6.2.2 The following are terms under which funding techniques for administrative costs 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 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

No exempt agencies.
7.0 CLEARANCE PATTERNS
7.1 The State shall develop separate clearance pattems for each of the following:

The State of Maine has developed clearance patterns for three centralized accounts:

Primary Disbursement Account #0366

This is the primary disbursement account for the State of Maine excluding state payroll and unemployment benefits. The
clearance pattern for this account also factors in the clearance pattern of ACH payments issued from the #9798 {ACH
Primary Disbursement) account.

Payroll Checking Account #0374
This is the State of Maine payroll account for employee payroll payments. The clearance pattem for this account also
factors in the clearance pattern of direct deposit (ACH) payments issued from the #9790 (ACH Payroll) account.

Unemployment Compensation #9709
This is the benefit payment account used for direct deposit (ACH) payments.

7.2 The following shall develop the State's clearance patterns:
U.S. Bank and the Office of the State Treasurer
7.3 The sources of data the State shall use when developing its clearance patterns are as follows:

4. Range of check numbers for checks issued during specified 90-calendar-day time period.

2. Total number of payments and total amount of payments during time period.

3. Total of daily checks presented that fall within the predefined check number range.

4. The number of days from the date of issue by the State to the day the dollars were removed from the State's bank
account. Percentage of daily checks presented (number and amount) compared against the total issuance of the period.
5. Dollar-weighted factor created by applying percentage against number of days before check presentation.

The sum of dollar-weighted factors represents the average amount of time for a check to be presented for payment to the
bank after the check issuance date.

7.4 The State shail 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.

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

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.

Actual Clearance, ZBA - Same Day Payment

The State shall request funds the same day it pays out funds, in accordance with the appropriate Federal agency cut-off
time specified in Exhibit |. A Federal agency will deposit funds in a State account the same day as requested. The amount
of the request shall be for the amount of funds that clear the State’s account that day. This funding technique is interest

Page 4 of 20


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

40.1 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:
NIA

10.3 The State shall submit all claims for reimbursement of interest calculation costs with its Annual Report in accordance
with 31 CFR 205.

11.0 NON-COMPLIANCE

(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:

Actual Activity:

For all transactions where the State pays out its own funds for program purposes prior to receiving Federal funds, the
Slate 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 average
clearance, an interest-neutral funding technique, for such transfers. For UTF transfers 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 cafculate interest liabilities on refunds:

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 or paid out for program purposes.
