ARTICLE IV FUNDING <br />Section 4.01 Debt to State and Corporate Status. <br />Pursuant to Tex. Gov. Code § 403.055, the Department will not approve and the State Comptroller <br />will not issue payment to Contractor if Contractor is indebted to the State for any reason, including a <br />tax delinquency. Contractor, if a corporation, certifies by execution of this Contract that it is current <br />and will remain current in its payment of franchise taxes to the State of Texas or that it is exempt <br />from payment of franchise taxes under Texas law (Tex. Tax Code §§ 171.001 et seq.). Contractor, if <br />a corporation, further certifies that it is and will remain in good standing with the Secretary of State's <br />office. A false statement regarding franchise tax or corporate status is a material breach of this <br />Contract. If franchise tax payments become delinquent during the Contract term, all or part of the <br />payments under this Contract may be withheld until Contractor's delinquent franchise tax is paid in <br />full. <br />Section 4.02 Application of Payment Due. <br />Contractor agrees that any payments due under this Contract will be applied towards any debt of <br />Contractor, including but not limited to delinquent taxes and child support that is owed to the State of <br />Texas. <br />Section 4.03 Use of Funds. <br />Contractor shall expend Department funds only for the provision of approved services and for <br />reasonable and allowable expenses directly related to those services. <br />Section 4.04 Use for Match Prohibited. <br />Contractor shall not use funds provided through this Contract for matching purposes in securing other <br />funding unless directed or approved by the Department in writing. <br />Section 4.05 Program Income. <br />Gross income directly generated from Department funds through a project or activity performed <br />under a Program Attachment and /or earned only as a result of a Program Attachment during the term <br />of the Program Attachment are considered program income. Unless otherwise required under the <br />terms of the grant funding this Contract, Contractor shall use the addition alternative, as provided in <br />UGMS § 25(g)(2), for the use of program income to further the program objectives of the state or <br />federal statute under which the Program Attachment was made, and Contractor shall spend the <br />program income on the same Program Attachment project in which it was generated. Contractor <br />shall identify and report this income in accordance with the Compliance and Reporting Article of <br />these General Provisions, the Contractor's Financial Procedures Manual located at <br />http: / /www.dshs.state.tx.us /contracts /cfpm.shtm and the provisions of the Program Attachment(s). <br />Contractor shall expend program income during the Program Attachment term and may not carry <br />forward to any succeeding term. Contractor shall refund program income not expended in the term in <br />which it is earned to DSHS. DSHS may base future funding levels, in part, upon Contractor's <br />General Provisions (Core Subrecipient) 2015 (July 1, 2014) 13 <br />
