  1 35 against a board member or employee of the corporation having a
  2  1 financial interest in any project of the corporation.
  2  2    Sec. 2.  AUDIT.  By January 15, 1999, the auditor of state
  2  3 shall conduct an audit, or review any previously completed
  2  4 audit, of any nonprofit corporation in existence which has
  2  5 been incorporated since January 1, 1989, by or in association
  2  6 with the Iowa finance authority, for the entire time period
  2  7 since the corporation was incorporated.  The auditor shall
  2  8 make or cause to be made a written report consistent with and
  2  9 similar to the type of report required under section 11.4.
  2 10 The auditor of state may conduct similar additional audits of
  2 11 the same nonprofit corporation as the auditor deems necessary

  2 29 members filling the four new positions on the board which are
  2 30 appointed by the private associations may serve less than a
