This paper examines a class of general optimal stopping problems in whichreward functions depend on initial points. Two points of view on theinitial point are introduced: one is to view it as a constant, and the other isto view it as a constant process starting from the point. Based on the twodifferent views, two versions of the generalized high contact principleare derived. Finally, we apply the generalized high contact principle to oneexample
