Major Federal Award Programs Audit: Section 8 New Construction and Substantial Rehabilitation, Federal Assistance Listing Nunber 14.182 a. Comments on the Finding and Recommendation We concur with the auditors finding as follows: In connection with out lease file review, we noted the following deficiencies: 3 out of 16 existing tenants tested did not have the Enterprise Income Verification (EIV) form completed within 120 days, as required by HUD. 1 out out of 16 existing tenants tested income reported on HUD Form 50059 did not agree to income verified using the Enterprise lncome Verification (EIV). 10 out of 16 existing tenants tested did not have the annual recertifications done timely. 1 out of 2 former tenants tested did not have security deposit returned within 30 days of departure, as required by HUD.- b. Action(s) Taken or Planned on the Finding At the time of tenant file review, the current staff was not made aware of EIV documents stored in a separate area in the office. This since has been corrected and the EIV information is now in the tenant files. Management was aware due to staffing issues of the annual recertifications being behind. We have resolved the staffing issues and have a Compliance Manager that monitors this now whom help the site with any questions to bring all tenants up to date. With staffing issues being updated we are working with them to make sure to process security deposit refunds in a tinely matter.

Major Federal Award Programs Audit Comments on the Finding and Recommendation We concur with the auditors finding as follows: On December 31, 2017, HUD had approved a loan to operations from the reserve for replacement of $40,239 to be repaid upon receipt of the past due subsidy. When the past due subsidy was received, the property was unable to repay the loan because of an unexpected increase in vacancies as a result of tenant turnover. As of December 31, 2024, management had not repaid $40,239 due to reserve for replacement Action(s) Taken or Planned on the Finding As of December 31, 2024, management has not repaid $40,239 due to reserve for replacement. Additionally, no deposits were made into the reserve for replacement. The owner and agent met with HUD on September 15, 2022 to discuss the loan repayment. It was determined that the loan payment would be deferred and absorbed into the budget-based increase submitted lo HUD and currently in review. This would cover the loan repayment that has been impossible to repay because the property has not operated efficiently since the Residual Receipt swipe of $241,000 in 2017. The finding is repeated as Finding No. 2024-001

Management acknowledges the oversight and agrees with the recommendation. At the time of the finding, the Credit Union had not established written policies and procedures specific to the administration of the CDFI ERP program, which was required under the grant agreement. However, this finding relates to the pre-merger entity’s administration of the CDFI ERP program. Since the merger, the current Credit Union is no longer a member of the CDFI Fund and therefore does not participate in federal programs subject to these requirements. Accordingly, the development of written policies and procedures related to federal grant administration is no longer applicable. To address the finding: • The issue has been documented as part of merger due diligence. • Management has confirmed that no further actions are required, as the current Credit Union does not administer CDFI or federal grant programs. CU1 will prepare adequate policies and procedures if it becomes applicable in the future. Expected Completion Date – Completed Responsible Parties – Wendy Gorevan, CFO (FAFCU pre-merger) and Scott McDonald, CFO (post-merger)

Finding Reference Number: 2024-001 Identification of the Federal Program: Grantor: United States Department of Health and Human Services Program Name: Health Centers Cluster Assistance Listing No.: 93.224, 93.527 Name of responsible official: James Geraghty Associate Vice President, Faculty Practice Group Phone: (718) 430-3255 Email: james.geraghty@einsteinmed.edu Projected completion date: October 1, 2025 Condition In accordance with Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations, Part 200.303, Internal controls, “Establish and maintain effective internal control over the Federal award that provides reasonable assurance that the non-Federal entity is managing the Federal award in compliance with Federal statutes, regulations, and the terms and conditions of the Federal award.” The Health System was unable to demonstrate that internal controls were operating effectively to ensure proper application of the Health System’s policy relating to the sliding fee discount schedule (SFDS). Specifically, documentation supporting the application of the SFDS was not obtained within a year of the visit in line with the Health System’s policy. Views of responsible officials and planned corrective actions Management concurred with the audit finding and implemented standardized procedures to enhance screening and enrollment of patients. Additional controls are in place to ensure timely documentation of income and family size. In order to ensure compliance with the SFDS policy including documentation and retention, a policy was adopted requiring reviews on the day before visit, during visit and day after visit, as well as periodic retrospective reviews. There will be regular staff training on eligibility, determination and documentation requirements.
