(3) the successor-in-interest is an eligible sponsor and demonstrates to the department's satisfaction that it can successfully own and operate the rental housing development and comply with all program requirements; and

(4) no terms of the sale, transfer, or conveyance jeopardize either the department's security or the successor's ability to comply with all program requirements.

(b) The department shall grant its approval of such sale, assignment, transfer, or conveyance subject to such terms and conditions as may be necessary to preserve or establish the fiscal integrity of the project. Such conditions shall include:

(1) the deposit of sales proceeds, or a portion thereof, to maintain required reserves, or to offset negative cash flow;

(2) the recapture of syndication proceeds or other funds in accordance with special conditions included in the Standard Agreement or any other agreement executed by the sponsor;

(c) The sponsor shall not encumber, pledge, or hypothecate the rental housing development, or any interest therein or portion thereof, or allow any lien, charge, or assessment against the rental housing development without the prior written approval of the department.
