In addition to the above, in connection with a Written Requisition:
(1) Only the signature of an Authorized Representative of the Funding Lender shall be required on a Written Requisition during any period in which Borrower Loan Agreement Default has occurred and is then continuing under the Borrower Loan Documents (Written Notice of which default has been given by an Authorized Representative of the Funding Lender to the Fiscal Agent and the Governmental Lender, and the Fiscal Agent shall be entitled to conclusively rely on any such Written Notice as to the occurrence and continuation of such a default).
(2) The Fiscal Agent shall disburse amounts in the Project Fund for the payment of interest due on the Governmental Lender Note upon receipt from the Funding Lender of a statement detailing the amount due (and without the need for a Written Requisition signed by the Funding Lender or any approval by an Authorized Representative of the Borrower).
(3) The Fiscal Agent may conclusively rely on all Written Requisitions, the execution of the Written Requisitions by the Authorized Representative of the Borrower and the approval of all Written Requisitions by the Authorized Representative of the Funding Lender, as required by this Section, as conditions of payment from the Project Fund, which Written Requisitions constitute, as to the Fiscal Agent, irrevocable determinations that all conditions to payment of the specified amounts from the Project Fund have been satisfied.

The Approval in Writing of a Written Requisition by the Funding Lender shall be deemed a certification and, insofar as the Fiscal Agent is concerned, shall constitute conclusive evidence that all of the terms, conditions and requirements of the Funding Loan Documents applicable to such disbursement have been fully satisfied or waived and the Written Requisition from the Borrower shall, insofar as the Fiscal Agent is concerned, constitute conclusive evidence that the costs described in the Written Requisition constitute Qualified Project Costs or other permitted Project costs.

The Governmental Lender, the Funding Lender and the Borrower acknowledge that the Fiscal Agent is not providing investment supervision, recommendations, or advice. The Governmental Lender, the Funding Lender and the Borrower (by its execution of the Borrower Loan Agreement) acknowledge that to the extent regulations of the Comptroller of the Currency or other applicable regulatory entity grant the Governmental Lender or the Funding Lender the right to receive brokerage confirmations of security transactions as they occur, the Governmental Lender and the Funding Lender will not receive such confirmations to the extent permitted by law. The Fiscal Agent shall furnish the Borrower, the Funding Lender and the Governmental Lender (to the extent requested by such parties) periodic cash transaction statements which shall detail for all investment transactions, if any, made by the Fiscal Agent hereunder.
