These representations and covenants are in furtherance of the covenants contained in Section 5.2 of the Bond Indenture, dated as of January 1, 2022 (the "Indenture"), by and between the Issuer and Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee, and in part are made pursuant to Section 1.141-2(d)(2) and Section 1.148-2(b)(2) of the Treasury Regulations. Capitalized terms used herein which are not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings set forth in the Indenture. I. General Matters. (a) Authority for Issuance. The undersigned and other officers and members of the Issuer and the City are charged with the responsibility of authorizing and requesting the issuance of the Obligations. The Obligations are being issued pursuant to the Mello -Roos Community Facilities Act of 1982, as amended, being Section 53311 et seq. of the California Government Code . (b) Sale of Obligations. The Obligations are being delivered to Stifel, Nicolaus & Company, Incorporated (the "Underwriter") on the date hereof for resale to the general public. (c) Purpose of Obligations. The Obligations are being sold and delivered for the purpose of (i) financing certain public improvements needed with respect to the development of property located within the Issuer, including public improvements to be owned by the City, water and sewer facilities to be owned and operated by the Eastern Municipal Water District and school facilities to be owned and operated by Romoland School District (the "Project"), as further described in Exhibit A herein, (ii) paying costs of issuing the Obligations ("Issuance Costs") and (iii) funding a reasonably required Reserve Account with respect to the Obligations. The Issuer and the City covenant to use the proceeds of the Obligations solely for the above - described purposes, unless an opinion of Stradling Yocca Carlson & Rauth, a Professional Corporation, its successor, or any other attorney or firm of attorneys selected by the Issuer and the City with a nationally -recognized standing as bond counsel in the field of municipal finance ("Bond Counsel") is received permitting uses of proceeds for other than the above -described purposes. (d) Nature of Issue. All the Obligations are being sold and issued at the same time, have been sold pursuant to the same plan of financing, and are reasonably expected to be paid from substantially the same source of funds. Accordingly, the Obligations are a single issue of obligations 4891-3753-7801/200299-0008 for certain federal income tax purposes relating to the exclusion from gross income of interest on the Obligations. No other governmental obligations which are reasonably expected to be paid from substantially the same source of funds are being sold or issued at substantially the same time and sold pursuant to the same plan of financing as the Obligations. (e) Purpose of Tax Certificate. The Issuer and the City are executing this Tax Certificate (including all exhibits hereto) with the understanding and acknowledgement that Bond Counsel, will rely on the representations and certifications made in this Tax Certificate (including all exhibits hereto) in rendering its opinion that interest on the Obligations is excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes, and the execution of this Tax Certificate is necessary to ensure that interest on the Obligations is excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes. II. Private Activity. (a) Governmental Use of Proceeds. Absent an opinion of Bond Counsel that the exclusion from gross income of interest on the Obligations will not be adversely affected for federal income tax purposes, the Issuer and the City will not allow any of the proceeds of the Obligations, or any refinanced obligations thereof, or any of the facilities financed or refinanced with such Obligations to be used in the trade or business of any nongovernmental persons (other than in their roles as members of the general public) and will not loan any of the proceeds of the Obligations or any refinanced obligations to any nongovernmental persons. In furtherance of the foregoing, the Issuer and the City represent the following with respect to the use of proceeds of the Obligations and the facilities financed and refinanced therewith. (b) In General. No more than 10% of the proceeds of the Obligations or the Project (based on the cost of the components of the Project or, with respect to a unitary structure, on the relative fair rental value of such components) has been or will be used in the aggregate for any activities that constitute a "Private Use" (as such term is defined in Section II(e) below). No Private Use, with respect to the Project is contemplated as of the date hereof. No more than 10% of the principal of or interest on the Obligations, under the terms thereof or any underlying arrangement, has been or will be secured by any interest in property (whether or not the Project) used for a Private Use or in payments in respect of property used for a Private Use, or will be derived from payments in respect of property used for a Private Use. In particular, the Issuer and the City covenant to consult with Bond Counsel prior to entering into any contracts or arrangements with respect to the Project, such as sales, service, management, or lease agreements with respect to the Project. (c) No Private Loan Financing. No more than the lesser of 5% of the proceeds of the Obligations or $5,000,000 will be used to make or finance loans to any person other than to a state or local governmental unit (other than loans to finance any governmental tax or assessment of general application for a specific essential governmental function or loans that are used to acquire or carry Nonpurpose Investments (as such term is defined in Section IV(a) below)). (d) No Disproportionate or Unrelated Use. No more than 5% of the proceeds of the Obligations or the Project has been or will be used for a Private Use that is unrelated or disproportionate to the governmental use of the proceeds of the Obligations (an "Unrelated or Disproportionate Use"), and no more than 5% of the principal of or interest on any of the Obligations has been or will be, under the terms of the Obligations or any underlying arrangement, directly or indirectly, secured by any interest in property used or to be used for a Private Use that is an Unrelated or Disproportionate Use 4891-3753-7801/200299-0008 or in payments in respect of property used or to be used for a Private Use that is an Unrelated or Disproportionate Use. (e) Definition of Private Use. For purposes of this Tax Certificate, the term "Private Use" means any activity that constitutes a trade or business that is carried on by persons or entities other than governmental entities. The leasing of property financed or refinanced with proceeds of the Obligations or the use by or the access of a person or entity other than a governmental unit to property or services on a basis other than as a member of the general public shall constitute a Private Use. For purposes of Section II of this Tax Certificate, Private Use of the Project does not include the following: (A) Contracts for services that are solely incidental to the primary governmental function or functions of a bond financed property (e.g., contracts for janitorial, office equipment repair, billing, or similar services). (B) Contracts to provide for services, if the only compensation is the reimbursement of the service provider for actual and direct expenses paid by the service provider to unrelated parties. (C) Arrangements, including renewal options, the term of which is not greater than two hundred (200) days. For purposes of this provision, a right of first refusal to renew will not be treated as a renewal option if (i) the compensation for the use under the arrangement is predetermined at generally applicable, fair market value rates that are in effect at the time of renewal, and (ii) the use of the financed property under the same or similar arrangements is predominately by natural persons who are not engaged in a trade or business. (D) Arrangements (other than an arrangement that results in the ownership of financed property) (i) the term of which, including all renewal options, as described in Subsection (C) above, is not longer than one hundred (100) days, (ii) that would be treated as general public use, except that the bond financed property is not available for use on the same basis by natural persons that are not engaged in a trade or business because generally applicable and uniform rates are not reasonably available to natural persons not engaged in a trade or business, and (iii) wherein the property is not financed for a principal purpose of providing such property for use by a non -governmental unit. (E) Arrangements (other than an arrangement resulting in ownership of the property) (i) the term of which, including all renewal options as described above, is not longer than fifty (50) days, (ii) that are negotiated at arm's length and the compensation is at fair market value, and (iii) wherein the property is not financed for a principal purpose of providing such property for use by a non- governmental unit. The term limits described in each of the three foregoing contractual arrangements (i.e., Subsections (C), (D) and (E) above) are not required to relate to consecutive days; that is, if the contract provides for use of bond financed property for fifteen (15) days per year for four (4) years, the contract would have to comply with the requirements applicable to contractual arrangements set forth in Subsection (D) above, because the term of the contract would exceed fifty (50) days. (F) Incidental use of bond -financed property is disregarded, to the extent that such use(s) do not exceed two and one-half percent (2-1/2%) of the proceeds of the issue and the use (with the exception of vending machines, pay telephones, kiosks and similar uses) does not involve the transfer 3 4891-3753-7801/200299-0008 to non-exempt persons of possession and control of the space that is separated from other areas of the facility by walls, partitions, or other physical barriers, such as a night gate affixed to a structural component of a building (a nonpossessory use); the nonpossessory use is not functionally related to any other use of the facility by the same person (other than a different nonpossessory use); and all nonpossessory uses of the facility do not, in the aggregate, involve the use of more than two and one- half percent (2-1/2%) of the facility. (G) Qualified improvements, that is improvements to a building (including its structural components and land functionally related and subordinate to the building) owned by a state or local governmental unit are not used for private business use if. (i) the building was placed in service more than one year before the construction or acquisition of the improvement has begun; (ii) the improvement is not an enlargement of the building or an improvement of interior space occupied exclusively for any private business use; (iii) no more than fifteen percent (15%) of the improved building is used for private business use; and (iv) no portion of the improved building or any payment in respect of the improved building is taken into account as security for the payment of debt service on the tax exempt bond issue, including a mortgage on the property for the benefit of the bondholders. (f) Management and Service Contracts. With respect to management and service contracts, the determination of whether a particular use constitutes Private Use under this Tax Certificate shall be determined on the basis of applying the relevant sections of the Treasury Regulations and Revenue Procedure 2017-13 which includes the following restrictions: (A) the compensation is reasonable for the services rendered, (B) no portion of the compensation is based upon a share of net profits, (C) the service provider does not bear the burden of net losses from the operation of the managed property, (D) the Issuer or the City has a significant degree of control over the managed property, (E) the Issuer or the City must bear the risk of loss upon damage or destruction of the managed property, (F) the service provider cannot take a tax position inconsistent with merely being a service provider, (G) not more than 20 percent of the voting power of the governing body of the Issuer or the City is vested in the service provider, and (H) the term of the contract is not in excess of the lesser of 80 percent of the weighted average reasonably expected economic life of the managed property and 30 years. As of the date hereof, no portion of the proceeds derived from the sale of the Obligations is being used to provide property subject to contracts or other arrangements with persons or entities engaged in a trade or business (other than governmental units) that involve the management of property or the provision of services with respect to property financed or refinanced by proceeds of the Obligations. (g) $15000,000 Limit and Multipurpose Election. Absent an opinion of Bond Counsel, in no event will the amount of Private Use allocable to the Project exceed $15,000,000; the Issuer and the City expressly do not elect, as of the date hereof, to make a multipurpose election pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.141-13(d) to divide the issue of Obligations. (h) Use Pursuant to Leases, Licenses and Joint Ventures. Neither the Issuer nor the City currently lease, license, sublease or sublicense, nor will the Issuer or the City lease, license, sublease or sublicense during the period the Obligations are outstanding, any portion of the Project to a non- governmental unit such that the Obligations will be considered "private activity bonds" within the meaning of Section 141 of the Code. Neither the Issuer nor the City is currently engaged in any joint venture, nor will the Issuer or the City engage in any joint venture, with any non -governmental unit, during the period the Obligations are outstanding, in which any portion of the Project will be used by a non -governmental unit. Bond Counsel has advised the Issuer and the City that any arrangement that is properly characterized as a lease for federal income tax purposes is treated as a lease. Consequently, 4 4891-3753-7801/200299-0008 an arrangement that is referred to as a management or service contract may nevertheless be treated as a lease, and in determining whether a management contract is properly characterized as a lease, it is necessary to consider all of the facts and circumstances, including the following factors: (i) the degree of control over property that is exercised by a non -governmental unit; and (ii) whether a non- governmental unit bears risk of loss of the bond -financed property. (i) Sales of Output. If any water is sold with respect to the Project, it will be pursuant to a generally applicable rate scale. With respect to sales of water from the Project, Private Use results if the purchase has the effect of transferring the benefits of owning the Project and the burdens of paying debt service on Obligations financing the Project. Private Use will result with respect to the Project if a nongovernmental person agrees pursuant to a take contract or a take or pay contract to purchase available output. No take contract or take or pay contract has been entered into with respect to the Project. No output purchaser has been guaranteed any particular amount of output. III. Arbitrage Certifications. The following states the expectations of the Issuer and the City with respect to the amount and uses of the proceeds of the Obligations and certain other monies or property: (a) Source and Use of Funds. The total proceeds to be derived by the Issuer and the City from the sale of the Obligations, in the aggregate amount of $12,042,603.65 (consisting of the principal amount of $11,330,000.00, plus a net original issue premium of $855,248.35 and less an Underwriter's discount of $142,644.70) is expected to be needed and fully expended as follows: (i) $194,500.00 of such proceeds will be deposited to the Costs of Issuance Account to pay the Issuance Costs; (ii) $10,997,664.42 of such proceeds will be deposited to the Acquisition and Construction Fund to fund the Project; and (iii) $850,439.23 of such proceeds will be deposited to the Reserve Account to fund a reasonably required reserve. (b) Over -Issuance. The total proceeds to be received by the Issuer and the City from the sale of the Obligations, together with anticipated investment earnings thereon, do not exceed the total amount necessary for the purposes described above. (c) Temporary Period. The Issuer and the City have entered into a binding obligation to expend at least five percent (5%) of the proceeds of the Obligations (less amounts deposited in the Reserve Account) on the Project. Work on the construction and acquisition of the Project will proceed with due diligence to the completion thereof, and at least eighty-five percent (85%) of the proceeds derived from the sale of the Obligations, other than those held in the Reserve Account, will be expended within three years of the date hereof on the Project. (d) Working_ Capital. No working capital expenditures of the Issuer, the City or any related entity of the Issuer or the City are to be financed directly or indirectly with proceeds derived from the sale of the Obligations. 5 4891-3753-7801/200299-0008 (e) Reimbursement. No costs paid prior to the date hereof are to be reimbursed from proceeds of the Obligations. (f) Funds and Accounts. The Indenture (or other document) creates and establishes the following funds and accounts with respect to the Obligations: (i) the Special Tax Fund, and within such fund, (A) an Administrative Expense Account, (B) an Interest Account, (C) a Principal Account, (D) a Redemption Account, and (E) a Reserve Account; (ii) the Rebate Fund, and within such fund, (A) an Alternate Penalty Account, and (B) a Rebate Account; (iii) the Acquisition and Construction Fund, and within such fund, (A) a City Facilities Account, (B) a Costs of Issuance Account, (C) a School Facilities Account, and (D) a Water Facilities Account; and (iv) the Surplus Fund. (g) Sinking Funds. (i) Bona Fide Debt Service Funds. The Interest Account, the Principal Account, and the Redemption Account (to the extent such monies will be fully depleted within each Bond Year (as such term is defined in Section IV(e) below)) (collectively, the "Bona Fide Debt Service Funds"), will be used primarily to achieve a proper matching of revenues (and certain other monies) and payments of principal and interest with respect to the Obligations within each Bond Year. Amounts deposited in the Bona Fide Debt Service Funds will be depleted at least once each Bond Year except for a reasonable carryover amount, if any, which, in the aggregate, will not exceed the greater of (i) the earnings on such funds for the immediately preceding Bond Year, or (ii) one -twelfth of the debt service with respect to the Obligations for the immediately preceding Bond Year. (ii) Reasonably Required Reserve. Proceeds derived from the sale of the Obligations deposited in the Reserve Account will not be greater than the least of (i) maximum annual 4891-3753-7801/200299-0008 debt service with respect to the Obligations, (ii) 125% of average annual debt service with respect to the Obligations, or (iii) 10% of the face amount of Obligations (less original issue discount or plus premium if in excess of 2% of the stated redemption amount at maturity) (the "Tax Reserve Limit"). The Underwriter has represented that the funding of the Reserve Account was reasonably required, was a vital factor in marketing the Obligations, facilitated the marketing of the Obligations at an interest rate comparable to that of bonds and other obligations of a similar type and is not in excess of the amount considered necessary for such purpose. (iii) No Other Proceeds. Other than the Bona Fide Debt Service Funds, the Reserve Account, and the Redemption Account (but only to the extent such account is expected to pay debt service and not part of the Bona Fide Debt Service Funds), there are no funds or accounts of the Issuer or the City established pursuant to the Indenture, or otherwise, that are reasonably expected to be used for the payment of principal and interest with respect to the Obligations or that are pledged as collateral for the Obligations and for which there is a reasonable assurance that amounts on deposit therein will be available for the payment of principal and interest with respect to the Obligations if the Issuer or the City encounters financial difficulties. There are no amounts held under any agreement to maintain amounts at a particular level for the direct or indirect benefit of the holders of the Obligations or guarantor of the Obligations, if any, excluding for this purpose amounts in which the Issuer, the City or a substantial beneficiary of the Issuer or the City may grant rights that are superior to the rights of the holders of the Obligations or guarantor of the Obligations, if any, and amounts that do not exceed reasonable needs for which they are maintained and as to which the required level is tested no more frequently than every six months and that may be spent without any substantial restriction other than a requirement to replenish the amount by the next testing date. The term of the Obligations is not longer than is reasonably necessary for the governmental purpose of the issue, and the weighted average maturity of the Obligations does not exceed 120% of the average reasonably expected economic life of the financed Project. (h) Rebate Fund. Amounts deposited in the Rebate Fund are to assist the Issuer and the City with compliance of Section 148(f) of the Code. (i) Reserved. 0) Investment. The proceeds derived from the sale of the Obligations and the amounts on deposit in the aforementioned funds and accounts may be invested as follows: (i) Amounts held in the Reserve Account not in excess of the Tax Reserve Limit may be invested at an unrestricted yield. Amounts in the Reserve Account in excess of the Tax Reserve Limit, if any, will be invested at a yield that does not exceed the yield on the Obligations or in Tax - Exempt Obligations (as defined in Section IV(b)(i)(B) below). (ii) Amounts deposited in the Bona Fide Debt Service Funds may be invested at an unrestricted yield for a period not in excess of 13 months from the date of deposit of such amounts to such funds. Amounts described in the previous sentence that may not be invested at an unrestricted yield pursuant to this Subsection (ii) shall be invested either at a yield not in excess of the yield on the Obligations or in Tax -Exempt Obligations. (iii) Proceeds of the Obligations held in the Acquisition and Construction Fund to pay Project costs and Issuance Costs may be invested at an unrestricted yield for a period of three years from the date hereof. Investment earnings on obligations acquired with the amounts described in this 7 4891-3753-7801/200299-0008 Subsection (iii) may be invested at an unrestricted yield for a period not to exceed the applicable period described in this Subsection (iii) or one year from the date of receipt, whichever period is longer. (iv) Amounts held in the Administrative Expense Account, the Surplus Fund and the Rebate Fund (not described above) that are not otherwise gross proceeds of the Obligations may be invested without regard to yield. (v) Amounts held in the Redemption Account that are not part of the Bona Fide Debt Service Funds will be invested at a yield not in excess of the yield on the Obligations or in Tax - Exempt Obligations. (k) Yield. For purposes of this Tax Certificate, yield is calculated as set forth in Section 148 of the Code and §§ 1.148-4 and 1. 148-5 of the Treasury Regulations. Thus, yield generally means that discount rate which when used in computing the present value of all unconditionally payable payments representing principal, interest, and the fee of qualified guarantees paid and to be paid with respect to the Obligations produces an amount equal to the issue price of the Obligations. The issue price of the Obligations is $12,185,248.35, which is equal to, with respect to each Maturity (as defined in Exhibit B), the first price at which at least 10% of the Maturity was sold to the Public (as defined in Exhibit B), as represented by the Underwriter in Exhibit B. Yield with respect to the obligations allocable to proceeds of the Obligations, is that discount rate which when used in computing the present worth of the payments of principal and interest on the obligations produces an amount equal to the purchase price of the obligations. The yield on the Obligations has been calculated by the Underwriter to be 2.86146%, as provided in Exhibit B. None of the Obligations (i) are subject to optional redemption within five years of the date hereof, or (ii) bear interest at increasing interest rates (i.e., a stepped coupon bond). For purposes of computing the arbitrage yield on the Obligations, the Issuer and the City will assume the Obligations listed under Assumed Call/Computation Dates for Premium Bonds in the Proof of Arbitrage Yield in Exhibit B are called at 103% premium on September 1, 2028, as provided in Exhibit B. Absent an opinion of Bond Counsel that the exclusion from gross income of interest on the Obligations will not be adversely affected for federal income tax purposes, the Issuer and the City will not enter into any hedges (including swaps or caps) with respect to the Obligations. (1) No Artifice or Device. The Obligations are not and will not be part of a transaction or series of transactions (i) that attempts to circumvent the provisions of Section 148 of the Code, or any successor thereto, and the regulations promulgated thereunder or under any predecessor thereto, enabling the Issuer, the City or any related person of the Issuer or the City to exploit the difference between tax-exempt and taxable interest rates to gain a material financial advantage, and (ii) that increases the burden on the market for Tax -Exempt Obligations in any manner, including, without limitation, by selling bonds that would not otherwise be sold, or selling more bonds, or issuing bonds sooner, or allowing bonds to remain outstanding longer, than otherwise would be necessary. IV. Rebate Compliance. (a) Covenants. The Issuer and the City hereby covenant to comply with the rebate requirements of Section 148(f) of the Code. 4891-3753-7801/200299-0008 The Issuer and the City acknowledge that the United States Department of the Treasury has issued certain regulations with respect to certain requirements relating to compliance with Section 148(f) of the Code. The Issuer and the City covenant that it will determine precisely what is required with respect to Section 148(f) of the Code and will comply with any requirements applicable to the Obligations. The Issuer and the City acknowledge that, to the extent that an exception to the rebate requirements of Section 148(f) of the Code is not available with respect to the Obligations, under Section 148(f) of the Code, the federal government must be paid the sum of (i) the excess of the amount earned on all Nonpurpose Investments with respect to the Obligations over the amount that would have been earned had such investments been invested at a rate equal to the yield with respect to the Obligations, plus (ii) any income attributable to the excess described in (i) (the "Rebate Requirement"). The Issuer and the City acknowledge that currently, unless an exception to the Rebate Requirement is available, compliance with Section 148(f) of the Code generally involves a multi -step process: (1) ascertaining the funds (the "Gross Proceeds") and investments (the "Nonpurpose Investments") subject to the Rebate Requirement after applying, if applicable, a universal cap with respect to the Obligations (the "Universal Cap"), (2) creating an investment history cash flow report with respect to the investment of Gross Proceeds of the Obligations, (3) determining the yield with respect to the Obligations (the "Yield"), (4) future valuing receipts and payments in the cash flow report (including certain deemed receipts and payments) using the Yield as the discount factor, and (5) determining the amount of rebatable arbitrage with respect to the Obligations and paying the appropriate amount to the United States Treasury. See Treasury Regulations Sections 1.148-0 through 1.148-11, 1.149(d)-1, and 1.150-1 for rules with respect to rebate compliance methodology. See Section IV(b)(i) below for a description of Nonpurpose Investments with respect to the Obligations, Section IV(b)(ii) below for a description of Gross Proceeds of the Obligations, Section IV(b)(iii) below for the description of a Universal Cap with respect to the Obligations, Section IV(b)(iv) below for a description of Yield with respect to the Obligations for purposes of compliance with Section 148(f) of the Code, and Section IV(d) with respect to permitted investment of Gross Proceeds. The Issuer and the City also acknowledge that additional or different requirements may be applicable to the Obligations if certain exceptions are satisfied. See Section IV(c) herein. (b) Operative Terms. (i) NonpuEpose Investments. Subject to the limitation in Section IV(b)(iii) below, Nonpurpose Investments are generally securities, obligations, annuity contracts or any other investment -type property that are not acquired to carry out the governmental purpose of the Obligations that are allocated to Gross Proceeds. However, Nonpurpose Investments do not include: (A) United States Treasury - State and Local Government Series, Demand Deposit Securities; or (B) Tax -Exempt Obligations. The term "Tax -Exempt Obligations" for the purposes of this Tax Certificate includes (i) obligations the interest on which is excludable from gross income for federal income tax purposes, and not treated as an item of tax preference under Section 57(a)(5)(C) of the Code, (ii) an interest in a regulated investment company to the extent that at least ninety-five percent (95%) of the income to the holder of the interest is excludable from gross income 4891-3753-7801/200299-0008 under Section 103 of the Code, and (iii) a certificate of indebtedness issued by the United States Treasury pursuant to the State and Local Government Series program described in 31 CFR Part 344. (ii) Gross Proceeds. Subject to the limitation in Section IV(b)(iii) below, "Gross Proceeds" with respect to the Obligations means: (A) amounts actually or constructively received from the sale (or other disposition) of the Obligations; (B) amounts actually or constructively received from investing amounts described in Clause (A); (C) amounts (other than proceeds derived from the sale of the Obligations) that are reasonably expected to be or are in fact used to pay debt service with respect to the Obligations; (D) amounts pledged as security for the payment of debt service with respect to the Obligations or otherwise serving as a reserve fund with respect to the Obligations; (E) "transferred proceeds" of the Obligations; and (F) any other amounts which are replacement proceeds of the Obligations within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.148-1(c). (iii) universal Cap. Except as provided below, in no event shall the value of Nonpurpose Investments allocated to Gross Proceeds of the Obligations exceed the Universal Cap of the Obligations computed in accordance with Section 1.148-6 of the Treasury Regulations. The Universal Cap of the Obligations is equal to the value of the outstanding Obligations computed in accordance with Section 1.148-4 of the Treasury Regulations. The value of a Nonpurpose Investment on a date allocated to Gross Proceeds of the Obligations for this purpose is equal to the value of such investment in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.148-5(d). The Universal Cap value and the value of Nonpurpose Investments are to be computed as of the first day of each Bond Year that commences after the second anniversary of the issue date and if the applicable obligations, are a refunding issue, as of each date that, without regard to the Universal Cap, proceeds of any refunded issue become "transferred proceeds" of the Obligations within the meaning of Section 1.148-9 of the Treasury Regulations (a "Cap Computation Date"). Amounts allocable to the Bona Fide Debt Service Funds are not subject to the Universal Cap. Between Cap Computation Dates, Nonpurpose Investments cease to be allocated to the Obligations to the extent they are expended or otherwise cease to be allocated to the Obligations under Section 1.148-6 of the Treasury Regulations. To the extent Nonpurpose Investments cease to be allocated to the obligations of an Obligation, other investments become so allocated up to the amount of the unused Universal Cap, computed in accordance with Section 1.148-6 of the Treasury Regulations. If on a Cap Computation Date, Nonpurpose Investments have a value in excess of the Universal Cap, an amount of such investments necessary to eliminate that excess ceases to be allocated to the Obligations. Nonpurpose Investments cease to be allocated to the Obligations in the following order, within the meaning of Section 1.148-6 of the Treasury Regulations: (1) first, amounts held in a sinking fund, pledged fund, or reserve or replacement fund for the Obligations (other than proceeds derived from the sale of the Obligations or investment earnings earned from investing any such sale proceeds), 10 4891-3753-7801/200299-0008 (2) second, transferred proceeds, and (3) third, proceeds derived from the sale of the Obligations and earnings thereon, all within the meaning of Section 1.148-6 of the Treasury Regulations. (4) A failure to do a Universal Cap calculation on a Cap Computation Date will not result in noncompliance with Section 148(f) of the Code if, in the absence of that failure, the Obligations would have satisfied the Rebate Requirement. (iv) Yield See Section III(k) hereof. (c) Rebate Exception. (i) Bona Fide Debt Service Funds. The Issuer and the City will be relieved of the obligation to pay the Rebate Requirement with respect to amounts earned on funds in the Bona Fide Debt Service Funds. (ii) Expenditure Exceptions. There are three expenditure exceptions from the Rebate Requirement - the "Two -Year Exception," the "Six -Month Exception," and the "Eighteen - Month Exception." The Issuer and the City will be relieved of the obligation to pay the Rebate Requirement with respect to that portion of the proceeds of the Obligations described in each applicable Subclause (1) below of each Clause (A), (B), and (C), if the applicable requirements set forth in each applicable Subclause (2) below are satisfied of each Clause (A), (B), and (C). (A) Two -Year Exception. (1) The portion of the "available construction proceeds" (as defined below) of the Obligations at least 75% of which are to be used for construction expenditures (including reconstruction and rehabilitation) with respect to property that is to be owned by a governmental unit or an organization described in Section 501(c)(3) of the Code and exempt from federal income tax under Section 501(a) of the Code is described in this Subclause (1). The term "available construction proceeds" means an amount equal to the portion of the issue price (as defined in Section III(k) above) of the Obligations described in this Subclause (1), increased by earnings thereon, and increased by the earnings on the Reserve Account to the extent those earnings accrue before the earlier of the date construction is substantially completed or the date two years after the date hereof. Available construction proceeds do not include amounts to be used to pay Issuance Costs. (2) This exception will be treated as being satisfied if at least 10% of the available construction proceeds of the Obligations are expended for the governmental purposes of the Obligations within the six-month period beginning on the date of issue of the Obligations, at least 45% of such amounts are expended for the governmental purposes of the Obligations within the one-year period beginning on the date of issue of the Obligations, at least 75% of such amounts are expended for the governmental purposes of the Obligations within the 18-month period beginning on the date of issue of the Obligations, and all of such amounts are expended for the governmental purposes of the Obligations within the two-year period beginning on the date of issue of the Obligations. The requirement that 100% of the available construction proceeds of the Obligations be expended within two years may be reduced to not below 95% provided that the amount not expended is held by the Issuer and the City for a period not exceeding one year as a "reasonable retainage" as required or permitted by construction contracts with contractors. The requirement that 100% of the 11 4891-3753-7801/200299-0008 Gross Proceeds be expended within two years may be reduced by an amount equal to the lesser of 3% of the issue price of the Obligations or $250,000.00 if the Issuer and the City exercised due diligence to complete the Project. (B) Six -Month Exception. The Issuer and the City will be relieved of the obligation to pay the Rebate Requirement with respect to the portion of the proceeds of the Obligations described in Subclause (1) below if the requirements described in Subclause (2) below are satisfied. (1) All Gross Proceeds of the Obligations (other than "transferred proceeds" of the Obligations, amounts held in the Reserve Account, and amounts allocable to the Bona Fide Debt Service Funds), are described in this Subclause (1). (2) This exception will be treated as having been satisfied if all Gross Proceeds of the Obligations subject to this exception are expended for the governmental purposes of the Obligations no later than the day that is six months after the date of issue of the Obligations. (C) Eighteen -Month Exception. The Issuer and the City will be relieved of the obligation to pay the Rebate Requirement with respect to the portion of the proceeds of the Obligations described in Subclause (1) below if the requirements described in Subclause (2) below are satisfied. (1) All Gross Proceeds of the Obligations allocable to new money purposes that may be invested at an unrestricted yield, including reasonably expected investment earnings as of the date hereof (other than amounts allocable to the Bona Fide Debt Service Funds, and amounts held in the Reserve Account), are described in this Subclause (1). (2) This exception will be treated as being satisfied if at least 15% of such monies are expended for the governmental purposes of the Obligations within the six-month period beginning on the date of issue of the Obligations, at least 60% of such monies are expended for the governmental purposes of the Obligations within the one-year period beginning on the date of issue of the Obligations, and 100% of such monies are expended for the governmental purpose of the Obligations within the 18-month period beginning on the date of issue of the Obligations. The requirement that 100% of the Gross Proceeds be expended within 18 months may be reduced to not below 5% of the proceeds derived from the sale of the Obligations subject to this exception that is retained for reasonable business purposes relating to the property financed with the Obligations provided such monies are expended within 30 months of the issue date of the Obligations. Additionally, the requirement that 100% of the Gross Proceeds be expended within 18 months may be reduced by an amount equal to the lesser of 3% of the issue price of the Obligations or $250,000.00 if the Issuer and the City exercised due diligence to complete the Project. (iii) Expectations. The Issuer and the City reasonably expect that at least 75% of the proceeds of the Obligations deposited in the City Facilities Account, the Water Facilities Account, and the School Facilities Account of the Acquisition and Construction Fund, and earnings thereon, are expected to be used for Project construction expenditures. 12 4891-3753-7801/200299-0008 (iv) Elections. (1) Seventy -Five Percent Test. Pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.148-7(f)(1)(i), the Issuer and the City expressly elect to satisfy the requirements of Section 148(f)(4)(C)(iv)(I) of the Code based upon its reasonable expectations. (2) Penalty in Lieu of Rebate. The Issuer and the City expressly do not elect to pay the penalty described in Section 148(f)(4)(C)(vii) of the Code in lieu of the Rebate Requirement described in Section 148(f)(2) of the Code, the 3% Penalty described in Section 148(f)(4)(C)(viii) of the Code, or to terminate the 1'/2% Penalty pursuant to Section 148(f)(4)(C)(ix) of the Code. Additionally, the Issuer and the City expressly do not elect to exclude earnings on any reasonably required reserve fund as available construction proceeds pursuant to Section 148(f)(4)(C)(vi)(IV) of the Code. (3) Bifurcation. The Issuer and the City expressly do not elect to treat the issue of Obligations as separate bond issues for purposes of Section 148(f)(4) of the Code. (d) Prohibited Investments and Dispositions. The Issuer and the City acknowledge that compliance with Section 148(f) of the Code may involve taking no action to artificially reduce the Rebate Requirement by the manner of investing Gross Proceeds. The Issuer and the City covenant that absent an opinion of Bond Counsel that the exclusion from gross income of interest with respect to the Obligations will not be adversely affected, it will comply with the rules of this Section IV(d) to assure compliance with Section 148(f) of the Code. G) No Nonpurpose Investment may be acquired with Gross Proceeds for an amount in excess of the fair market value of such Nonpurpose Investment. No Nonpurpose Investment may be sold or otherwise disposed of for an amount less than the fair market value of the Nonpurpose Investment. (ii) The fair market value of any Nonpurpose Investment is the price which a willing buyer would pay to a willing seller to acquire the Nonpurpose Investment in a bona fide, arm's- length transaction, with no amounts paid or received to artificially reduce or increase the yield on the Nonpurpose Investment. Fair market value generally is determined on the date on which a contract to purchase or sell the Nonpurpose Investment becomes binding (i.e., the trade date rather than the settlement date). The purchase or sales price of a Nonpurpose Investment is not adjusted (except as provided below) to take into account any administrative costs of the Nonpurpose Investment. For calendar year 2022, a brokerage commission or similar fee for an investment contract and for investments for a yield restricted defeasance escrow is included as a receipt to the extent the commission exceeds the lesser of (A) $43,000 and (B) 0.2% of the computational base or, if more, $4,000; provided, a brokers fee or similar fee is included as a receipt to the extent all brokers fees or similar fees of the issue of Obligations exceed $122,000. For purposes of this Tax Certificate "computational base" means (A) for a guaranteed investment contract, the amount of Gross Proceeds to be deposited in the contract, and (B) for investments (other than guaranteed investment contracts) to be deposited in a yield restricted defeasance escrow, the amount of Gross Proceeds initially invested in those investments. For subsequent calendar years, the dollar limits described in this Section IV(d)(ii) may be increased for cost -of -living adjustments. See Treasury Regulation Section 1.148-5(e)(2)(iii). Certain administrative costs, including reasonable direct administrative costs, other than carrying costs, such as brokerage commissions or selling commissions, but not legal and accounting fees, recordkeeping, custody and similar costs, may be taken into account in computing the Rebate 13 4891-3753-7801/200299-0008 Requirement with respect to investments. See Treasury Regulation Section 1.148-5. General overhead costs and similar indirect costs of the Issuer and the City such as employee salaries and office expenses and costs of computing rebatable arbitrage may not be taken into account. The following provisions provide guidelines as to when the Nonpurpose Investment will be deemed to be acquired for its fair market value. Other methods may be used, however, to establish fair market value. (iii) Nonpurpose Investments that are investment contracts and investments purchased for a yield restricted defeasance escrow will be considered acquired for an amount equal to the fair market value of such obligations if the following requirements are satisfied: (A) The Issuer and the City make a bona fide solicitation for the purchase of the investment. A bona fide solicitation is a solicitation that satisfies all of the following requirements: (1) The bid specifications are in writing and are timely forwarded to potential providers. (2) The bid specifications include all material terms of the bid. A term is material if it may directly or indirectly affect the yield or the cost of the investment. (3) The bid specifications include a statement notifying potential providers that submission of a bid is a representation that the potential provider did not consult with any other potential provider about its bid, that the bid was determined without regard to any other formal or informal agreement that the potential provider has with the Issuer, the City or any other person (whether or not in connection with the bond issue), and that the bid is not being submitted solely as a courtesy to the Issuer, the City or any other person for purposes of satisfying the requirements of Clause (13)(1) or (2) below. (4) The terms of the bid specifications are commercially reasonable. A term is commercially reasonable if there is a legitimate business purpose for the term other than to increase the purchase price or reduce the yield of the investment. For example, for solicitations of investments for a yield restricted defeasance escrow, the hold firm period must be no longer than the Issuer and the City reasonably require. (5) For purchases of guaranteed investment contracts only, the terms of the solicitation take into account the Issuer and the City's reasonably expected deposit and drawdown schedule for the amounts to be invested. (6) All potential providers have an equal opportunity to bid. For example, no potential provider is given the opportunity to review other bids (i.e., a last look) before providing a bid. (7) At least three reasonably competitive providers are solicited for bids. A reasonably competitive provider is a provider that has an established industry reputation as a competitive provider of the type of investments being purchased. 14 4891-3753-7801/200299-0008 (B) The bids received by the Issuer and the City meet all of the following requirements: (1) The Issuer and the City receive at least three bids from providers that the Issuer and the City solicited under a bona fide solicitation meeting the requirements of Clause (A) of this Subsection (iii) and that do not have a material financial interest in the issue. A lead underwriter in a negotiated underwriting transaction is deemed to have a material financial interest in the issue until 15 days after the issue date of the issue. In addition, any entity acting as a financial advisor with respect to the purchase of the investment at the time the bid specifications are forwarded to potential providers has a material financial interest in the issue. A provider that is a related party to a provider that has a material financial interest in the issue is deemed to have a material financial interest in the issue. (2) At least one of the three bids described in Clause (13)(1) of above is from a reasonably competitive provider, within the meaning of Clause (A)(7) of this Subsection (iii). (3) If the Issuer and the City use an agent to conduct the bidding process, the agent did not bid to provide the investment. (C) The winning bid meets the following requirements: (1) Guaranteed investment contracts. If the investment is a guaranteed investment contract, the winning bid is the highest yielding bona fide bid (determined net of any broker's fees). (2) Other investments. If the investment is not a guaranteed investment contract, the following requirements are met: a. The winning bid is the lowest cost bona fide bid (including any broker's fees). The lowest cost bid is either the lowest cost bid for the portfolio or, if the Issuer and the City compare the bids on an investment -by -investment basis, the aggregate cost of a portfolio comprised of the lowest cost bid for each investment. Any payment received by the Issuer and the City from a provider at the time a guaranteed investment contract is purchased (e.g., an escrow float contract) for a yield restricted defeasance escrow under a bidding procedure meeting the requirements of Subsection (iii) is taken into account in determining the lowest cost bid. b. The lowest cost bona fide bid (including any broker's fees) is not greater than the cost of the most efficient portfolio comprised exclusively of State and Local Government Series Securities from the United States Department of the Treasury, Bureau of Public Debt. The cost of the most efficient portfolio of State and Local Government Series Securities is to be determined at the time that bids are required to be submitted pursuant to the terms of the bid specifications. C. If State and Local Government Series Securities from the United States Department of the Treasury, Bureau of Public Debt are not available for purchase on the day that bids are required to be submitted pursuant to terms of the bid specifications because sales of those securities have been suspended, the cost comparison of Clause (C)(2)(b) above is not required. 15 4891-3753-7801/200299-0008 (D) The provider of the investments or the obligor on the guaranteed investment contract certifies the administrative costs that it pays (or expects to pay, if any) to third parties in connection with supplying the investment. (E) The Issuer and the City retain the following records with the bond documents until three years after the last outstanding bond is redeemed: (1) For purchases of guaranteed investment contracts, a copy of the contract, and for purchases of investments other than guaranteed investment contracts, the purchase agreement or confirmation. (2) The receipt or other record of the amount actually paid by the Issuer and the City for the investments, including a record of any administrative costs paid by the Issuer and the City, and the certification under Clause (D) above. (3) For each bid that is submitted, the name of the person and entity submitting the bid, the time and date of the bid, and the bid results. (4) The bid solicitation form and, if the terms of the purchase agreement or the guaranteed investment contract deviated from the bid solicitation form or a submitted bid is modified, a brief statement explaining the deviation and stating the purpose for the deviation. For example, if the Issuer and the City purchase a portfolio of investments for a yield restricted defeasance escrow and, in order to satisfy the yield restriction requirements of Code Section 148, an investment in the winning bid is replaced with an investment with a lower yield, the Issuer and the City must retain a record of the substitution and how the price of the substitute investment was determined. If the Issuer and the City replace an investment in the winning bid portfolio with another investment, the purchase price of the new investment is not covered by the safe harbor unless the investment is bid under a bidding procedure meeting the requirements of this Subsection (iii). (5) For purchases of investments other than guaranteed investment contracts, the cost of the most efficient portfolio of State and Local Government Series Securities, determined at the time that the bids were required to be submitted pursuant to the terms of the bid specifications. (iv) Nonpurpose Investments that are certificates of deposit with a fixed interest rate, a fixed principal payment schedule, a fixed maturity, and a substantial penalty for early withdrawal, will be considered acquired for their fair market value if the following requirements are satisfied: (A) the yield on the certificate of deposit is not less than the yield on reasonably comparable direct obligations of the United States; and (B) the yield on the certificate of deposit is not less than the highest yield that is published or posted by the provider to be currently available from the provider on comparable certificates of deposit offered to the public. (v) Except as otherwise provided in this Section IV(d), any Nonpurpose Investment that is not of a type traded on an established securities market, within the meaning of Code 16 4891-3753-7801/200299-0008 Section 1273, shall be rebuttably presumed to be acquired or disposed of for an amount that is not equal to the fair market value of the Nonpurpose Investment. (vi) The fair market value of a United States Treasury obligation that is purchased directly from the United States Treasury is its purchase price. (e) Bond Year. For purposes of this Tax Certificate, a "Bond Year" ends on each September 1 and begins on each September 2; provided that the first Bond Year begins on the date hereof and the last Bond Year ends on the date no Obligations are outstanding. V. Recordkeeping and Allocation. (a) Recordkeepin . The Issuer and the City will maintain or cause to be maintained sufficient records to support compliance with the provisions of this Tax Certificate and to support the exclusion from gross income of interest on the Obligations for federal income tax purposes, including, but not limited to, the following: opinions); (i) basic records relating to the Obligations (e.g., indenture, loan agreement, and (ii) documentation evidencing expenditure of Obligation proceeds; (iii) documentation evidencing use of Obligation financed property (e.g., management and service contracts); (iv) documentation evidencing sources of payment and security for Obligations ; and (v) documentation pertaining to the investment of Obligation proceeds (including rebate calculations). In particular, the Issuer and the City will maintain or cause to be maintained detailed records with respect to each security, obligation, annuity contract, or an other investment -type property allocated to Gross Proceeds, including: (i) purchase date, (ii) purchase price, (iii) information establishing fair market value on the date such investment is allocated to Gross Proceeds, (iv) any accrued interest paid, (v) face amount, (vi) coupon rate, (vii) periodicity of interest payments, (vii) disposition price, (ix) any accrued interest received, and (x) disposition date. The Issuer and the City shall establish separate sub -accounts or take other accounting measures in order to account fully for all Gross Proceeds. The Issuer and the City shall maintain books and records with respect to the allocation of Gross Proceeds in accordance with this Tax Certificate. All records required to be maintained pursuant to this Tax Certificate must be kept as long as the Obligations are outstanding plus three years after all Obligations are retired, and with respect to obligations refunded by the Obligations, for the same period required for the Obligations. (b) Allocation. The Issuer and the City may use any reasonable, consistently applied accounting method to account for Gross Proceeds of the Obligations in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.148-6; for purposes of allocating Gross Proceeds to capital expenditures intended to be financed pursuant to this Tax Certificate after the date of issue of the applicable Tax -Exempt 17 4891-3753-7801/200299-0008 Obligation, and paid to unrelated third parties ("Qualified Capital Expenditures"), the Issuer and the City may use the following accounting methods: "specific tracing," "gross -proceeds -spent -first," "first -in, first -out," or a ratable allocation method. The Issuer and the City covenant to consult with Bond Counsel with respect to the applicable method of allocation of Gross Proceeds to expenditures that are not Qualified Capital Expenditures. In addition, the accounting method applied must account uniformly for (i) Gross Proceeds commingled with other moneys in excess of $25,000 and such other commingled moneys and (ii) Gross Proceeds for each fiscal year or interim fiscal period therein during which the issue is outstanding. Another accounting method may, however, be utilized for moneys if it is for a bona fide purpose unrelated to federal income tax restrictions. If Gross Proceeds are commingled with other moneys (other than in an open-end regulated investment company) in an amount in excess of $25,000 (a "Commingled Fund"), the following additional requirements must be satisfied. First, all payments and receipts with respect to investments in the Commingled Fund must be allocated among the different moneys ratably based upon either (i) average daily balances during a "Computation Period" (as defined below) or (ii) the average of the beginning and ending balances of the amounts in the Commingled Fund for a Computation Period that does not exceed one month. A Commingled Fund may use as its Computation Period any consistent time period within its fiscal year that does not exceed three months. Not less frequently than at the end of each Computation Period, the Commingled Fund must compute and allocate to different types of moneys all payments, receipts, income, gain or losses realized, and expenditures. Second, except as provided below, the Commingled Fund must treat all of its investments as if sold at fair market value on the last day of the fiscal year or as of the last day of each Computation Period, and so allocate net gains or losses from such deemed sales (the "Mark -to -Market Requirement"). A Commingled Fund need not satisfy the Mark -to -Market Requirement if (i) the remaining weighted average maturity of all investments held by the Commingled Fund during a fiscal year does not exceed eighteen months and such investments consist exclusively of debt obligations, (ii) the Commingled Fund serves as a common reserve fund or sinking fund for two or more issues of the same issuer or (iii) the Issuer and the City (and any related party of the Issuer or the City) do not own more than twenty-five percent of beneficial interests in the Commingled Fund. Common reserve funds or sinking funds for two or more issues must be ratably allocated (not less frequently than once every five years and on each date a new issue is added or retired (if relative original principal amounts are used to so allocate)) in accordance with (i) the value of the bonds under Treasury Regulation Section 1.148-4(e), (ii) the relative amounts of the remaining maximum annual debt service payable on the issues, or (iii) the relative original stated principal amounts of the outstanding issues. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Tax Certificate, the allocation methodology applied must be consistent for all purposes of this Tax Certificate. The Issuer and the City must account for the allocation of Gross Proceeds to expenditures not later than eighteen months after the later of the date the expenditure is paid and the date the applicable portion of the Project is placed in service and in any event, by the date sixty days after the fifth anniversary of the issue date of the Obligations or the date 60 days after the retirement of the Obligation if earlier. VI. Miscellaneous. (a) Federal Guarantee. The Issuer and the City will not invest any of the proceeds of the Obligations in a manner which would result in the Obligations being considered "federally guaranteed" within the meaning of Section 149(b) of the Code, except as permitted therein (i.e., will not cause interest with respect to the Obligations to be included in gross income for federal income tax purposes). 18 4891-3753-7801/200299-0008 (b) Information Reporting. Attached as Exhibit C is a copy of the Form 8038-G filed with respect to the Obligations. (c) No Pooling. The Issuer and the City do not expect to use and will not use the proceeds of the Obligations to make or finance loans to two or more ultimate borrowers. (d) Hedge Bonds. Not more than 50% of the proceeds of the Obligations will be invested at a guaranteed rate of return for a term of four years or more. 19 4891-3753-7801/200299-0008 EXHIBIT A DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT Exhibit A-1 4891-3753-7801/200299-0008 EXHIBIT B $11,330,000 COMMUNITY FACILITIES DISTRICT NO.2020-1 (MCCALL MESA) OF THE CITY OF MENIFEE SPECIAL TAX BONDS, SERIES 2022A CERTIFICATE OF THE UNDERWRITER The undersigned, on behalf of Stifel, Nicolaus & Company, Incorporated ("Stifel") hereby certifies as set forth below with respect to the sale and issuance of the above -captioned bonds (the "Bonds"). 1. Sale of the Bonds. As of the date of this certificate, for each Maturity (as defined below) of the Bonds, the first price at which at least 10% of such Maturity was sold to the Public (as defined below) is the respective price listed in Schedule A. 2. Defined Terms. (a) Issuer means the Community Facilities District No. 2020-1 (McCall Mesa) of the City of Menifee. (b) Maturity means Bonds with the same credit and payment terms. Bonds with different maturity dates, or Bonds with the same maturity date but different stated interest rates, are treated as separate maturities. (c) Public means any person (including an individual, trust, estate, partnership, association, company, or corporation) other than an Underwriter or a related party to an Underwriter. The term "related party" for purposes of this certificate generally means any two or more persons who have greater than 50 percent common ownership, directly or indirectly. (d) Underwriter means (i) any person that agrees pursuant to a written contract with the Issuer (or with the lead underwriter to form an underwriting syndicate) to participate in the initial sale of the Bonds to the Public, and (ii) any person that agrees pursuant to a written contract directly or indirectly with a person described in clause (i) of this paragraph to participate in the initial sale of the Bonds to the Public (including a member of a selling group or a party to a retail distribution agreement participating in the initial sale of the Bonds to the Public). Arbitrage Yield. We have provided the attached schedules to the Issuer with respect to the yield on the Bonds being 2.86146%. Bond Counsel (as defined in the attached Tax Certificate) has advised that the issue price is determined based on the prices of each Maturity of the Bonds listed in Schedule A as described in paragraph 1 above. To the extent that we provided the Issuer and Bond Counsel with certain computations that show a bond yield, issue price, weighted average maturity and certain other information with respect to the Bonds, these computations are based on our understanding of directions that we have received from Bond Counsel regarding their interpretation of the applicable law. We express no view regarding the legal sufficiency of any such computations or the correctness of any legal interpretation made by Bond Counsel. Exhibit B - 1 4891-3753-7801/200299-0008 4. Reserve Account. The establishment of the Reserve Account in the amount of the Reserve Requirement was vital to the marketing of the Bonds and reasonably required to assure the payment of debt service on the Bonds. Stifel understands that Bond Counsel will rely upon the representations and certifications in this certificate, among other things, in reaching its conclusion that the Bonds do not constitute "arbitrage bonds" within the meaning of Section 148 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), provided, however, that nothing herein represents our interpretation of any laws, and, in particular, the Treasury Regulations issued under Section 148 of the Code. [REMAINDER OF PAGE INTENTIONA LL Y LEFT BLANK I Exhibit B-2 4891-3753-7801/200299-0008 The representations set forth in this certificate are limited to factual matters only. Nothing in this certificate represents Stifel's interpretation of any laws, including specifically Sections 103 and 148 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder. The undersigned understands that the foregoing information will be relied upon by the Issuer with respect to certain of the representations set forth in the attached Tax Certificate and with respect to compliance with the federal income tax rules affecting the Bonds, and by Bond Counsel in connection with rendering its opinion that the interest on the Bonds is excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes, the preparation of the Internal Revenue Service Form 803 8-G, and other federal income tax advice that it may give to the Issuer from time to time relating to the Bonds.
