PART III, LINE 3B0THE CORPORATION ROUTINELY SEEKS ADVICE FROM BOTH IN-HOUSE AND OUTSIDE COUNSEL ON MATTERS RELATED TO PRESERVING THE TAX-EXEMPT STATUS OF BONDS ISSUED FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE CORPORATION. IN 2010, THE CORPORATION ENTERED INTO A 5-YEAR FOOD SERVICE AGREEMENT WITH A PRIVATE BUSINESS ENTITY TO OPERATE THE CAFETERIA, DINING ROOM AND KITCHEN EQUIPMENT AT THE CORPORATION'S HEADQUARTERS FACILITY, A PORTION OF THE COST OF WHICH WAS FINANCED BY TAX-EXEMPT BONDS. BECAUSE THAT INITIAL CONTRACT CALLED FOR A PRIVATE PARTY TO OPERATE ONLY A RELATIVELY SMALL PORTION OF THE HEADQUARTERS FACILITY (PROVIDING ONLY ANCILLARY SUPPORT TO THE CORE FUNCTION OF THE HEADQUARTERS FACILITY) AND WAS FOR A TERM OF ONLY 5 YEARS, THE CORPORATION SOUGHT ADVICE ON THE INITIAL CONTRACT ONLY FROM IN-HOUSE COUNSEL. DURING 2013, THE CORPORATION ENGAGED OUTSIDE COUNSEL TO REVIEW THE CONTRACT.
