Information provided to the department pursuant to this section shall be kept confidential due to the proprietary nature of such information. (b) A qualified TNInvestco must pay to the department of economic and community development an annual, nonrefundable certification fee of five thousand dollars ($5,000) on or before April 1, or ten thousand dollars ($10,000) if later. No annual certification fee is required if the payment date for such fee is within six (6) months of the date a qualified TNInvestco is first certified by the department. (c) Upon satisfying each of the requirements of § 4-28-106(a)(1) , a qualified TNInvestco shall provide notice to the department of economic and community development and the department shall, within sixty (60) days of receipt of such notice, either confirm that the qualified TNInvestco has satisfied such requirement of § 4-28-106(a)(1) as of such date or provide notice of noncompliance and an explanation of any existing deficiencies. If the department does not provide such notification within sixty (60) days, the qualified TNInvestco shall be deemed to have met such requirement of § 4-28-106(a)(1) . (d) (1) For the purposes of this subsection (d), "key person" means: (A) The TNInvestco investment managers listed in part II, item 6, of such TNInvestco's application under § 4-28-105 ; or (B) A list of investment managers as has been previously approved by the department of economic and community development under subdivision (d)(2) or otherwise.

In the event that a majority of key persons do die, become legally incapacitated, or cease to be involved in the management of the TNInvestco for more than ninety (90) consecutive days for any reason, the commissioner of economic and community development, in consultation with the commissioner of revenue, the Tennessee Technology Development Corporation, or any other appropriate professional advisors, shall determine whether a new individual or individuals will be able to assume the role of key person so that the TNInvestco's performance will remain unimpaired. If the commissioner of economic and community development determines, in the commissioner's sole discretion, that the key person cannot be adequately replaced and the TNInvestco's performance therefore will be impaired, then any funds not already invested by the TNInvestco shall be deposited into the general fund unless the department of finance and administration has certified, pursuant to § 4-28-109 , that the total amount of payments deposited in the general fund under this chapter equals or exceeds the total amount of revenue forgone pursuant to the credits used as provided in § 4-28-103 . If the department of finance and administration has made such a determination, then any funds not already invested by the TNInvestco shall be deposited into the Tennessee rural opportunity fund to further support the state's economic development efforts.
