At UMAB in our subgrants and subcontracts we used to retain title to
all equipment acquired.  We have now changed that clause and past down
the same policies from PHS with which we have to comply.  The only time
we retain title to equipment is if the grant has restrictions or on a
contract where the government retains title until the contract expires.
