(4) The local governmental entity's procedure for maintaining current records of all qualified interest rate management agreements that have been approved and executed; and

(5) Such other provisions as may from time to time be required by the governing body of the local governmental entity, including but not limited to additional provisions due to changes in market conditions for qualified interest rate management agreements.
