The conveyance must be made by warranty deed. The conveyance may not (1) require any consideration (such as payment) from the SCF for the property; (2) impose any obligation, term, or condition on the SCF relating to that property; or (3) allow for any U.S. reversionary interest in the property.
HHS must be accorded any easement or access to the property as may be reasonably necessary to satisfy any retained obligation or liability of HHS.
