Significant modifications include clarifications to the ``Purpose'' section and ``Marketing Support'' section, and adjustments to the ``Experienced Market-Maker in Gold Bullion Coins'' section and ``Tangible Net Worth'' section. Changes to the accounting certification requirements and agreement terms and conditions are also incorporated. A new section has been added entitled ``Right to Temporarily Refrain from the Review of New Applications,'' during periods in which the allocation of a bullion product is required. Other minor changes have been made which provide further clarifications to various production descriptions and/or the gold bullion coin program in accordance with 31 U.S.C. 5112(a)(7-11) and (i).
