This grant contract was terminated, because it was found by a state auditor that MN Film & TV did not follow proper review procedures as stated in their RFP. MN Film & TV was awarded $94,355 of the initial $200,000 which they were able to retain. The remaining balance of $103,645 was re-granted to MN Film & TV in FY 13.
