# 102-37.370 Release of restrictions on property considered for exchange.
GSA must consent to the exchange of donated property under Federal restrictions or special handling conditions. The donee must have used the donated item for its acquired purpose for a minimum of 6 months prior to being considered for exchange, and it must be demonstrated that the exchange will result in increased utilization value to the donee. As a condition of approval of the exchange, the item being exchanged must have remained in compliance with the terms and conditions of the donation. Otherwise, § 102-37.380 applies. The item acquired by the donee must be:
(a) Made subject to the period of restriction remaining on the item exchanged; and
(b) Of equal or greater value than the item exchanged.
