borrower, as a condition precedent to borrowing funds from the agency,
shall enter into a regulatory agreement with the commissioner which
shall provide:

(a) that the real property or other assets mortgaged or otherwise
pledged to the agency shall not be sold, transferred, encumbered or
assigned until the eligible borrower shall have repaid in full all
obligations under the mortgage of the agency and has paid such other
obligations as may be required by the commissioner provided, however,
the provisions of this paragraph (a) shall not apply to any actions
taken pursuant to section four hundred ten-l of this article;

the agency such financial statements including an annual report setting

obtained the written consent of the commissioner:

included or planned to be included in a project. If any member, officer
or employee of a corporation which is an eligible borrower owns or
