event that the state funds upon which this Agreement is dependent are withdrawn, this

cost of collection related to this Agreement.

ATTACHMENT A
FEDERAL AND STATE OF FLORIDA SINGLE AUDIT ACT REQUIREMENTS
AUDIT REQUIREMENTS
The administration of resources awarded by the Department of State to the Grantee may be subject to
audits and/or monitoring by the Department of State as described in this Addendum to the Grant
Agreement.
MONITORING
In addition to reviews of audits conducted in accordance with 2 CFR 2 Subpart F — Audit Requirements
and Section 215.97, Florida Statutes, monitoring procedures may include, but not be limited to, on -site
visits by Department of State staff, limited scope audits as defined by 2 CFR 2 §200.328 and/or other
procedures. By entering into this agreement, the recipient agrees to comply and cooperate with any
monitoring procedures/processes deemed appropriate by the Department of State. In the event the
Department of State determines that a limited scope audit of the recipient is appropriate, the recipient
agrees to comply with any additional instructions provided by the Department of State staff to the
recipient regarding such audit. The recipient further agrees to comply and cooperate with any
inspections, reviews, investigations or audits deemed necessary by the Chief Financial Officer or
Auditor General.
AUDITS
PART I: FEDERALLY FUNDED
This part is applicable if the recipient is a State or local government or a non-profit organization that has
received federal funds awarded through the Department of State. Exhibit 1 to this attachment indicates
whether federal resources have been awarded through the Department of State by this agreement.
2 CFR 2 §200.501 Audit Requirements:
(a) Audit required. A non-federal entity that expends $750,000 or more during the non-federal entity's
fiscal year in federal awards must have a single or program -specific audit conducted for that year in
accordance with the provisions of this part.
(b) Single audit. A non-federal entity that expends $750,000 or more during the non-federal entity's
fiscal year in federal awards must have a single audit conducted in accordance with 2 CFR 2 §200.514
Scope of audit, except when it elects to have a program -specific audit conducted in accordance with
paragraph (c) of this section.
State Aid to Libraries Grant Agreement Page l i of 17
Chapter lB-2.011(2)(a), Florida Administrative Code, Effective 4-2015.
(c) Program -specific audit election. When an auditee expends federal awards under only one federal
program (excluding R&D) and the federal program's statutes, regulations, or the terms and conditions of
the federal award do not require a financial statement audit of the auditee, the auditee may elect to have
a program -specific audit conducted in accordance with 2 CFR 2 §200.507 Program -specific audits. A
program -specific audit may not be elected for R&D unless all of the federal awards expended were
received from the same federal agency, or the same federal agency and the same pass -through entity,
and that federal agency, or pass -through entity in the case of a subrecipient, approves in advance a
program -specific audit.
(d) Exemption when federal awards expended are less than $750,000. A non-federal entity that expends
less than $750,000 during the non-federal entity's fiscal year in federal awards is exempt from federal
audit requirements for that year, except as noted in 2 CFR 2 §200.503 Relation to other audit
requirements, but records must be available for review or audit by appropriate officials of the federal
agency, pass -through entity, and Government Accountability Office (GAO).
(e) Federally Funded Research and Development Centers (FFRDQ. Management of an auditee that
owns or operates a FFRDC may elect to treat the FFRDC as a separate entity for purposes of this part.
(f) Subrecipients and contractors. An auditee may simultaneously be a recipient, a subrecipient, and a
contractor. Federal awards expended as a recipient or a subrecipient are subject to audit under this part.
The payments received for goods or services provided as a contractor are not federal awards. Section
§200.330 Subrecipient and contractor determinations should be considered in determining whether
payments constitute a federal award or a payment for goods or services provided as a contractor.
(g) Compliance responsibility for contractors. In most cases, the auditee's compliance responsibility for
contractors is only to ensure that the procurement, receipt, and payment for goods and services comply
with federal statutes, regulations, and the terms and conditions of federal awards. Federal award
compliance requirements normally do not pass through to contractors. However, the auditee is
responsible for ensuring compliance for procurement transactions which are structured such that the
contractor is responsible for program compliance or the contractor's records must be reviewed to
determine program compliance. Also, when these procurement transactions relate to a major program,
the scope of the audit must include determining whether these transactions are in compliance with
federal statutes, regulations, and the terms and conditions of federal awards.
(h) For profit subrecipient. Since this part does not apply to for -profit subrecipients, the pass -through
entity is responsible for establishing requirements, as necessary, to ensure compliance by for -profit
subrecipients. The agreement with the for -profit subrecipient should describe applicable compliance
requirements and the for -profit subrecipient's compliance responsibility. Methods to ensure compliance
for federal awards made to for -profit subrecipients may include pre -award audits, monitoring during the
agreement, and post -award audits. See also §200.331 Requirements for pass -through entities.
The Internet address listed below will assist recipients in locating documents referenced in the text of
this agreement and with the interpretation of compliance issues.

PART II: STATE FUNDED
This part is applicable if the recipient is a nonstate entity as defined by Section 215.97(2)(1), Florida
Statutes and has received state funds awarded by the Department of State. Exhibit 1 to this attachment
indicates whether state resources have been awarded by the Department of State by this agreement.
Section 215.97, Florida Statutes Single Audit Requirements
In the event that the recipient expends a total amount of state financial assistance equal to or in
excess of $500,000 in any fiscal year of such recipient, the recipient must have a State single or
project -specific audit for such fiscal year in accordance with Section 215.97, Florida Statutes;
applicable rules of the Executive Office of the Governor and the Chief Financial Officer; and
Chapters 10.550 (local governmental entities) or 10.650 (nonprofit and for -profit organizations),
Rules of the Auditor General. Exhibit 1 to this attachment indicates state financial assistance
awarded through the Department of State by this agreement. In determining the state financial
assistance expended in its fiscal year, the recipient shall consider all sources of state financial
assistance, including state financial assistance received from the Department of State, other state
agencies and other nonstate entities. State financial assistance does not include federal direct or pass -
through awards and resources received by a nonstate entity for federal program matching
requirements.
2. In connection with the audit requirements addressed in Part II, paragraph 1 of this attachment, the
recipient shall ensure that the audit complies with the requirements of Section 215.97(7), Florida
Statutes. This includes submission of a financial reporting package as defined by Section
215.97(2)(d), Florida Statutes and Chapter 10.550 (local governmental entities) or 10.650 (nonprofit
and for -profit organizations), Rules of the Auditor General.
If the recipient expends less than $500,000 in state financial assistance in its fiscal year, an audit
conducted in accordance with the provisions of Section 215.97, Florida Statutes is not required. In
the event that the recipient expends less than $500,000 in state financial assistance in its fiscal year
and elects to have an audit conducted in accordance with the provisions of Section 215.97, Florida
