This accounting must be attested to by the CONTRACTOR fiscal <br /> officer and one other authorizing officer of the CONTRACTOR. This accounting must be filed <br /> with each funding state agency within six months after the end of the CONTRACTOR'S <br /> operating year. If the CONTRACTOR receives STATE funds of$100,000 or more during its <br /> fiscal year, it must file with the State Auditor and each funding agency its audited financial <br /> statements in accordance with the standards and formats prescribed by the State Auditor in <br /> Memorandum NGO-2 "Grantee Audit Reports."

Any information, data, instruments, documents studies or reports given to <br /> or prepared or assembled by the CONTRACTOR under this agreement may be published by the <br /> CONTRACTOR or its employees, or distributed by the CONTRACTOR to any other individual or <br /> organization.

If the DEPARTMENT determines that it wishes to <br /> be given credit, then CONTRACTOR shall take all necessary steps to assure that credit is given <br /> by the publisher.
