Cal. Civ. Code § 0770-03-01-.01

(1) Agreement to enter into a Housing Assistance Payments Contract shall mean a written agreement
between the owner and the Tennessee Housing Development Agency that upon satisfactory completion
of the rehabilitation in accordance with requirements specified in the agreement, Tennessee Housing
Development Agency will enter into a housing assistance payments contract with the owner.

(2) Eligible Family shall mean a family as defined in Rule 0770-1-5-.02 (13).

(3) Eligible Housing shall mean any type of rental housing which requires rehabilitation costing at least
$1,000 per unit in order to meet the housing quality standards. In the case of multi-family units, no
more than eight (8) units per structure will be accepted. It is the Agency’s goal that most units
rehabilitated under this program will be basically sound and require only a limited amount of
improvement. Mobile homes and rental housing units assisted under any federal housing program may
not be assisted under the Moderate Rehabilitation Program.

(4) Moderate Rehabilitation shall mean rehabilitation of property to bring the unit(s) up to the housing
quality standards of the existing housing program. It shall involve a minimum expenditure of $ 1,000
for a unit, including its prorated share of work to be accomplished on common areas to upgrade to
decent, safe and sanitary condition to comply with the housing quality standards or other standards
approved by HUD, from a condition below those standards. The improvements shall be of a modest
nature and other than routine maintenance. The improvements may include the repairing or the
replacing of major building systems or components in danger of failure.

(5) Statement of Family Responsibility shall mean that statement with regard to the family’s reporting
changes in family composition and income as contained in the certificate of family participation. The
certification of family participation is defined in Rule 0770-1-5-.02 (6).
