14. DESCRIPTION OF AMENDMENT/MODIFICATION (Organized by UCF section headings, including solicitation/contract subject matter where feasible.)

Amendment No. 2 is issued as follows:

1. Response to questions are provided:

Question 1: Why did the lessee/sublessee only provide a FY22 gross revenue report and did not provide one for other years?

Response 1: The lessee inconsistently reported their gross revenue meaning they typically did not provide unless requested by BIA although the lease specifies that they are to provide within 120 days after the end of each lease year. What was received was brief and may not be done in conformity with generally acceptable accounting principles so is a reason why an audit is needed. It was not until 2022 that the lessee reported any

2004.

Question 2: Will we have access to all correspondence from the lessee/sublessee for the past six years with the BIA.

Response 2: Yes, once the contract is awarded, the information will be released to the contractor.

Question 3: Will documentation for all revenue streams be available for all six years (assuming some revenue streams like "air" may have been based on coin usage where other ¿audit¿ procedures may be necessary).

Response 3: We will provided what we have obtained so far from the lessee but there may be things that we are unaware of being needed by an auditor/accountant which may still need to be obtained by the contractor to be able to complete the forensic audit.

Question 4: Will the following documentation be available for review:

Lessee/Sublessee bank statements: We would work with the contractor and lessee to work to obtain the bank statements.

Sublessee/Lease Agreements: The lessee used a software program which has all the contracts

(lease agreements) within the program with the receipts. No actual hard-copy lease agreements have been obtained. Contractor will need to be provided access to the software program from the lessee.

Question 5: Just wanted to confirm that the deliverable would be due 45 days after contract start date (there is a statement noting due 45 days after ¿award date¿)

Response 5: Yes, we estimated that it would take

45 days to complete the contract.

Question 6: Would you kindly confirm if this is an entirely new effort or is there an incumbent currently providing these services?

Response 6: There is not an incumbent.

Question 7: How many, if more than one, properties are covered under the Pecos Road &

32nd Street RV and Boat Storage Lease?

Response 7: The lease contains three allotments, but all are leased together, unitized lease, for the specified lease.

Question 8: What are the major types of revenues and expenses that constitute Gross Rental Income

(e.g., based on the Statements of Gross Rental

Income that have been provided)?

Response 8: The Rental Income, other income

(insurance coverage, security items, misc), U-Haul truck rental commissions, sales of moving supplies and propane sales have been reported for total rental income. Expenses include cost of goods sold, propane, rental refunds, write-offs.

Question 9: What was the Gross Rental Income for each year, for those years the Statements of

Gross Rental Income were submitted?

Response 9: The lessee inconsistently reported their gross revenue meaning they typically did not provide unless requested by BIA although the lease specifies that they are to provide within

120 days after the end of each lease year. What was received was brief and may not be done in conformity with generally acceptable accounting principles so is a reason why an audit is needed.

It was not until 2022 that the lessee reported any percentage rent since the lease began back in

2004.

Question 10: What accounting system has the lessee used during the six-year scope period as it relates to Gross Rental Income?

Response 10: The lessee used a software program

(U-Haul). Contractor will need to be provided access to the software program from the lessee.

BIA has been provided access for the past six years so the contractor will be provided the same information.

Question 11: Please describe, if known, to what extent the following records will be available electronically: leases and subleases, income statements, balance sheets, general ledgers, bank statements (and copies of checks), and any other information.

Response 11: Everything that we have obtained so far electronically (typically by PDF¿s other than the U-Haul software) will be provided to the contractor which includes tax forms, monthly
