lowing:
(1) the Corporation has completed its review of
the agreement, as required by section 21A(b)(11)(B)
of the Federal Home Loan Bank Act;
(2)(A) at the time of certification, in the opin-
ion of the Corporation and based upon the informa-
tion available to it, there is insufficient evidence or
other indication of fraud, misrepresentation, failure
to disclose a material fact, failure to perform under
the terms of the agreement, improprieties in the bid-
ding process, failure to comply with any law, rule or
regulation regarding the validity of the agreement,
or any other legal basis sufficient for the rescission
of the agreement; or
(B) at the time of certification, the Corporation
finds that there may be sufficient evidence to pro-
vide a legal basis for the rescission of the assistance
agreement, but the Corporation determines that it
may be in the best interest of the Government to re-
structure, modify or renegotiate the assistance
agreement; and
(3) the Corporation has or will promptly exer-
cise any and all legal rights to modify, renegotiate,
