  D. Approval of Annual Audit
   
We are asking the board of trustees to approve the annual audit as previously presented and approved. The board's approval of the annual audit must take place within 30 days from the receipt of a waiver of the debt service covenant in our loan agreement for 370 Pine Street from Peoples Bank. We received the waiver outside of 30 days from the board of trustee's approval. Thus, we must request the board vote to approve the audit again to ensure compliance with this regulation.
