The Bonds and any Parity Bonds shall be and are limited obligations of the District and shall be payable as to the principal thereof and interest thereon and any premiums upon the redemption thereof solely from the Net Taxes and the other amounts in the Special Tax Fund (other than amounts in the Administrative Expense Account of the Special Tax Fund). Section 2.2. Type and Nature of Bonds and Parity Bonds. Neither the faith and credit nor the taxing power of the City, the State of California, or any political subdivision thereof other than the District is pledged to the payment of the Bonds or any Parity Bonds. Except for the Net Taxes, no other taxes are pledged to the payment of the Bonds or any Parity Bonds. The Bonds and any Parity Bonds are not general or special obligations of the City nor general obligations of the District, but are limited obligations of the District payable solely from certain amounts deposited by the District in the Special Tax Fund (exclusive of the Administrative Expense Account), as more fully described herein. The District's limited obligation to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds and any Parity Bonds from amounts in the Special Tax Fund (exclusive of the Administrative Expense Account) is absolute and unconditional, free of deductions and without any abatement, offset, recoupment, diminution or set-off whatsoever. No Owner of the Bonds or any Parity Bonds may compel the exercise of the taxing power by the District (except as pertains to the Special Taxes) or the City or the forfeiture of any of their property. The principal of and interest on the Bonds and any Parity Bonds and premiums upon the redemption thereof, if any, are not a debt of the City, the State of California or any of its political subdivisions within the meaning of any 10 4850-8632-0382/200299-0007 constitutional or statutory limitation or restriction. The Bonds and any Parity Bonds are not a legal or equitable pledge, charge, lien, or encumbrance upon any of the District's property, or upon any of its income, receipts or revenues, except the Net Taxes and other amounts in the Special Tax Fund (exclusive of the Administrative Expense Account) which are, under the terms of this Indenture and the Act, set aside for the payment of the Bonds, any Parity Bonds and interest thereon, and neither the members of the legislative body of the District or the members of the City Council nor any persons executing the Bonds or any Parity Bonds are liable personally on the Bonds or any Parity Bonds, by reason of their issuance. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Indenture, the District shall not be required to advance any money derived from any source of income other than the Net Taxes for the payment of the interest on or the principal of the Bonds or any Parity Bonds, or for the performance of any covenants contained herein. The District may, however, advance funds for any such purpose, provided that such funds are derived from a source legally available for such purpose. Section 2.3. Equality of Bonds and Parity Bonds and Pledge of Net Taxes. Pursuant to the Act and this Indenture, the Bonds and any Parity Bonds shall be equally payable from and secured by a first pledge of and lien on the Net Taxes and other amounts in the Special Tax Fund (exclusive of the Administrative Expense Account), without priority for number, date of the Bonds or Parity Bonds, date of sale, date of execution, or date of delivery, and the payment of the interest on and principal of the Bonds and any Parity Bonds and any premiums upon the redemption thereof, shall be exclusively paid from the Net Taxes and other amounts in the Special Tax Fund (exclusive of the Administrative Expense Account) which are hereby set aside for the payment of the Bonds and any Parity Bonds; provided that any delinquent Special Tax sold to an independent third -party or to the City for 100% of the delinquent amount shall no longer be pledged hereunder to the payment of the Bonds or Parity Bonds. Amounts in the Special Tax Fund (other than the Administrative Expense Account therein) shall constitute a trust fund held for the benefit of the Owners to be applied to the payment of the interest on and principal of the Bonds and any Parity Bonds and, so long as any of the Bonds and any Parity Bonds or interest thereon remain Outstanding, shall not be used for any other purpose, except as permitted by this Indenture or any Supplemental Indenture. Notwithstanding any provision contained in this Indenture to the contrary, Net Taxes deposited in the Rebate Fund and the Surplus Fund shall no longer be considered to be pledged to the Bonds or any Parity Bonds, and none of the Rebate Fund, the Surplus Fund, the Acquisition and Construction Fund or the Administrative Expense Account of the Special Tax Fund shall be construed as a trust fund held for the benefit of the Owners. Nothing in this Indenture or any Supplemental Indenture shall preclude: (i) subject to the limitations contained hereunder, the redemption prior to maturity of any Bonds or Parity Bonds subject to call and redemption and payment of said Bonds or Parity Bonds from proceeds of refunding bonds issued under the Act as the same now exists or as hereafter amended, or under any other law of the State of California; or (ii) the issuance, subject to the limitations contained herein, of Parity Bonds which shall be payable from Net Taxes.

Interest due on the Bonds and Parity Bonds shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months. Section 2.5. Place and Form of Payment. The Bonds and Parity Bonds shall be payable both as to principal and interest, and as to any premiums upon the redemption thereof, in lawful money of the United States of America. The principal of the Bonds and Parity Bonds and any premiums due upon the redemption thereof shall be payable upon presentation and surrender thereof at the Principal Office of the Trustee, or at the designated office of any successor Trustee. If the Nominee of the Bonds or Parity Bonds is registered to Cede & Co., payment of principal and any premiums shall be made without presentment. Interest on any Bond or Parity Bond shall be payable from the Interest Payment Date next preceding the date of authentication of such Bond or Parity Bond, unless: (i) such date of authentication is an Interest Payment Date, in which event interest shall be payable from such date of authentication; (ii) the date of authentication is after a Record Date but prior to the immediately succeeding Interest Payment Date, in which event interest shall be payable from the Interest Payment Date immediately succeeding the date of authentication; or (iii) the date of authentication is prior to the close of business on the first Record Date occurring after the issuance of such Bond or Parity Bond, in which event interest shall be payable from the dated date of such Bond or Parity Bond, as applicable; provided, however, that if at the time of authentication of such Bond or Parity Bond, interest is in default, interest on such Bond or Parity Bond shall be payable from the last Interest Payment Date to which the interest has been paid or made available for payment or, if no 12 4850-8632-0382/200299-0007 interest has been paid or made available for payment on such Bond or Parity Bond, interest on such Bond or Parity Bond shall be payable from its dated date. Interest on any Bond or Parity Bond shall be paid to the person whose name shall appear in the Bond Register as the Owner of such Bond or Parity Bond as of the close of business on the Record Date. Such interest shall be paid by check of the Trustee mailed by first class mail, postage prepaid, to such Owner at his or her address as it appears on the Bond Register. In addition, upon a request in writing received by the Trustee on or before the applicable Record Date from an Owner of $1,000,000 or more in principal amount of the Bonds or of any issue of Parity Bonds, payment shall be made on the Interest Payment Date by wire transfer in immediately available funds to an account within the United States of America designated by such Owner. Section 2.6. Form of Bonds and Parity Bonds. The definitive Bonds may be printed from steel engraved or lithographic plates or may be typewritten. The Bonds and the certificate of authentication shall be substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A, which form is hereby approved and adopted as the form of such Bonds and of the certificate of authentication. Each issue of Parity Bonds and the certificate of authentication therefor shall be in the form provided in the Supplemental Indenture for such issue of Parity Bonds. Until definitive Bonds or Parity Bonds, as applicable, shall be prepared, the District may cause to be executed and delivered in lieu of such definitive Bonds or Parity Bonds temporary bonds in typed, printed, lithographed or engraved form and in fully registered form, subject to the same provisions, limitations and conditions as are applicable in the case of definitive Bonds or Parity Bonds, except that they may be in any denominations authorized by the District. Until exchanged for definitive Bonds or Parity Bonds, as applicable, any temporary bond shall be entitled and subject to the same benefits and provisions of this Indenture as definitive Bonds and Parity Bonds. If the District issues temporary Bonds or Parity Bonds, it shall execute and furnish definitive Bonds or Parity Bonds, as applicable, without unnecessary delay and thereupon any temporary Bond or Parity Bond may be surrendered to the Trustee at its office, without expense to the Owner, in exchange for a definitive Bond or Parity Bond of the same issue, maturity, interest rate and principal amount in any authorized denomination. All temporary Bonds or Parity Bonds so surrendered shall be cancelled by the Trustee and shall not be reissued. Section 2.7. Execution and Authentication.

In case any one or more of the officers who shall have signed or sealed any of the Bonds or Parity Bonds shall cease to be such officer before the Bonds or Parity Bonds so signed and sealed have been authenticated and delivered by the Trustee (including new Bonds or Parity Bonds delivered pursuant to the provisions hereof with reference to the transfer and exchange of Bonds or Parity Bonds or lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Bonds or Parity Bonds), such Bonds and Parity Bonds shall nevertheless be valid and may be authenticated and delivered as herein provided, and may be issued as if the person who signed or sealed such Bonds or Parity Bonds had not ceased to hold such office. Only the Bonds as shall bear thereon such certificate of authentication in the form set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto shall be entitled to any right or benefit under this Indenture, and no Bond 13 485 0-8632-03 82/200299-0007 shall be valid or obligatory for any purpose until such certificate of authentication shall have been duly executed by the Trustee. Section 2.8. Bond Register. The Trustee will keep or cause to be kept, at its office, sufficient books for the registration and transfer of the Bonds and any Parity Bonds which shall upon reasonable prior notice be open to inspection by the District during all regular business hours, and, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 2.9 below, upon presentation for such purpose, the Trustee shall, under such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, register or transfer or cause to be transferred on said Bond Register, Bonds and any Parity Bonds as herein provided. The District and the Trustee may treat the Owner of any Bond or Parity Bond whose name appears on the Bond Register as the absolute Owner of that Bond or Parity Bond for any and all purposes and the District and the Trustee shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary. The District and the Trustee may rely on the address of the Owner as it appears in the Bond Register for any and all purposes. It shall be the duty of the Owner to give written notice to the Trustee of any change in the Owner's address so that the Bond Register may be revised accordingly. Section 2.9. Registration of Exchange or Transfer. Subject to the limitations set forth in the following paragraph, the registration of any Bond or Parity Bond may, in accordance with its terms, be transferred upon the Bond Register by the person in whose name it is registered, in person or by his or her duly authorized attorney, upon surrender of such Bond or Parity Bond for cancellation at the office of the Trustee, accompanied by delivery of written instrument of transfer in a form acceptable to the Trustee and duly executed by the Owner or his or her duly authorized attorney. Bonds or Parity Bonds may be exchanged at the office of the Trustee for a like aggregate principal amount of Bonds or Parity Bonds for other authorized denominations of the same maturity and issue. The Trustee shall not collect from the Owner any charge for any new Bond or Parity Bond issued upon any exchange or transfer, but shall require the Owner requesting such exchange or transfer to pay any tax or other governmental charge required to be paid with respect to such exchange or transfer. Whenever any Bonds or Parity Bonds shall be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange, the District shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver a new Bond or Bonds or a new Parity Bond or Parity Bonds, as applicable, of the same issue and maturity, for a like aggregate principal amount; provided that the Trustee shall not be required to register transfers or make exchanges of: (i) Bonds or Parity Bonds for a period of 15 days next preceding any selection of the Bonds or Parity Bonds to be redeemed; or (ii) any Bonds or Parity Bonds chosen for redemption. Section 2.10. Mutilated, Lost, Destroyed or Stolen Bonds or Parity Bonds. If any Bond or Parity Bond shall become mutilated, the District shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, a new Bond or Parity Bond of like tenor, date, issue and maturity in exchange and substitution for the Bond or Parity Bond so mutilated, but only upon surrender to the Trustee of the Bond or Parity Bond so mutilated. Every mutilated Bond or Parity Bond so surrendered to the Trustee shall be cancelled by the Trustee pursuant to Section 10.1 hereof. If any Bond or Parity Bond shall be lost, destroyed or stolen, evidence of such loss, destruction or theft may be submitted to the Trustee and, if such evidence is satisfactory to the Trustee and, if any indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee shall be given, the District shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver a new Bond or Parity Bond, as applicable, of like tenor, maturity and issue, numbered and dated as the Trustee shall determine in lieu of and in substitution for the Bond or Parity Bond so lost, destroyed or 14 4850-8632-0382/200299-0007 stolen. Any Bond or Parity Bond issued in lieu of any Bond or Parity Bond alleged to be mutilated, lost, destroyed or stolen shall be equally and proportionately entitled to the benefits hereof with all other Bonds and Parity Bonds issued hereunder. The Trustee shall not treat both the original Bond or Parity Bond and any replacement Bond or Parity Bond as being Outstanding for the purpose of determining the principal amount of Bonds or Parity Bonds which may be executed, authenticated and delivered hereunder or for the purpose of determining any percentage of Bonds or Parity Bonds Outstanding hereunder, but both the original and replacement Bond or Parity Bond shall be treated as one and the same. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section, in lieu of delivering a new Bond or Parity Bond which has been mutilated, lost, destroyed or stolen, and which has matured, the Trustee may make payment with respect to such Bonds or Parity Bonds. Section 2.11. Validity of Bonds and Parity Bonds. The validity of the authorization and issuance of the Bonds and any Parity Bonds shall not be affected in any way by any defect in any proceedings taken by the District for the financing of the Project, or by the invalidity, in whole or in part, of any contracts made by the District in connection therewith, and shall not be dependent upon the completion of the financing of the Project or upon the performance by any Person of his obligation with respect to the Project, and the recital contained in the Bonds or any Parity Bonds that the same are issued pursuant to the Act and other applicable laws of the State shall be conclusive evidence of their validity and of the regularity of their issuance. Section 2.12. Book -Entry System. The Bonds shall be initially delivered in the form of a separate single fully registered Bond (which may be typewritten) for each maturity of the Bonds. Upon initial delivery, the ownership of each such Bond shall be registered in the registration books kept by the Trustee in the name of the Nominee as nominee of the Depository. Except as provided in Section 2.14 hereof, all of the Outstanding Bonds shall be registered in the registration books kept by the Trustee in the name of the Nominee. At the election of the District, any Parity Bonds may also be issued as book -entry bonds registered in the name of the Nominee as provided herein, in which case the references in Sections 2.12 through 2.15 to "Bonds" shall be applicable to such Parity Bonds. With respect to Bonds registered in the registration books kept by the Trustee in the name of the Nominee, the District and the Trustee shall have no responsibility or obligation to any such Participant or to any Person on behalf of which such a Participant holds an interest in the Bonds. Without limiting the immediately preceding sentence, the District and the Trustee shall have no responsibility or obligation with respect to: (i) the accuracy of the records of the Depository, the Nominee, or any Participant with respect to any ownership interest in the Bonds; (ii) the delivery to any Participant or any other Person, other than an Owner as shown in the registration books kept by the Trustee, of any notice with respect to the Bonds, including any notice of redemption; (iii) the selection by the Depository and its Participants of the beneficial interests in the Bonds to be redeemed in the event that the Bonds are redeemed in part; or (iv) the payment to any Participant or any other Person, other than an Owner as shown in the registration books kept by the Trustee, of any amount with respect to principal of, premium, if any, or interest due with respect to the Bonds. The District and the Trustee may treat and consider the Person in whose name each Bond is registered in the registration books kept by the Trustee as the holder and absolute owner of such Bond for the purpose of payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on such Bond, for the purpose of giving notices of redemption and other matters with respect to such Bond, for the purpose of registering transfers with respect to such Bond and for all other purposes whatsoever. The Trustee shall pay all principal of, premium, if any, and interest due on the Bonds only to or upon the order of the respective Owner, as shown in the registration books kept by the Trustee, or their respective 15 4850-8632-0382/200299-0007 attorneys duly authorized in writing, and all such payments shall be valid and effective to satisfy and discharge fully the District's obligations with respect to payment of the principal, premium, if any, and interest due on the Bonds to the extent of the sum or sums so paid. No Person other than an Owner, as shown in the registration books kept by the Trustee, shall receive a Bond evidencing the obligation of the District to make payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest pursuant to this Indenture. Upon delivery by the Depository to the Trustee and the District of written notice to the effect that the Depository has determined to substitute a new nominee in place of the Nominee, and subject to the provisions herein with respect to Record Dates, the word Nominee in this Indenture shall refer to such new nominee of the Depository. Section 2.13. Representation Letter. In order to qualify the Bonds and any Parity Bonds which the District elects to register in the name of the Nominee for the Depository's book -entry system, an Authorized Representative of the District is hereby authorized to execute from time to time and deliver to such Depository the Representation Letter. The execution and delivery of the Representation Letter shall not in any way limit the provisions of Section 2.12 or in any other way impose upon the District or the Trustee any obligation whatsoever with respect to persons having interests in the Bonds other than the Owners, as shown on the registration books kept by the Trustee. The District agrees to take all action necessary to continuously comply with all representations made by it in the Representation Letter. In addition to the execution and delivery of the Representation Letter, the Authorized Representatives of the District are hereby authorized to take any other actions, not inconsistent with this Indenture, to qualify the Bonds for the Depository's book -entry program. Section 2.14. Transfers Outside Book -Entry System. In the event that: (i) the Depository determines not to continue to act as securities depository for the Bonds; or (ii) the District determines that the Depository shall no longer so act, then the District will discontinue the book -entry system with the Depository. If the District fails to identify another qualified securities depository to replace the Depository then the Bonds so designated shall no longer be restricted to being registered in the registration books kept by the Trustee in the name of the Nominee, but shall be registered in whatever name or names Persons transferring or exchanging Bonds shall designate, in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.9 hereof. Section 2.15. Payments to the Nominee. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture to the contrary, so long as any Bond is registered in the name of the Nominee, all payments with respect to principal, premium, if any, and interest due with respect to such Bond and all notices with respect to such Bond shall be made and given, respectively, as provided in the Representation Letter or as otherwise instructed by the Depository.

Section 3.6. Reserve Account of the Special Tax Fund. There shall be maintained in the Reserve Account of the Special Tax Fund an amount equal to the Reserve Requirement.

If amounts in the Special Tax Fund together with any other amounts transferred to replenish the Reserve Account are inadequate to restore the Reserve Account to the Reserve Requirement, including any amounts necessary to pay costs related to the Reserve Policy, if any, then the District shall include the amount necessary to restore the Reserve Account to the Reserve Requirement, in the next annual Special Tax levy to the extent of the maximum permitted Special Tax rates. (c) In connection with a redemption of Bonds pursuant to Section 4.1(a) or 4.1(c) or Parity Bonds in accordance with any Supplemental Indenture, or a partial defeasance of Bonds or Parity Bonds in accordance with Section 9.1 hereof, amounts in the Reserve Account may be applied to such redemption or partial defeasance so long as the amount on deposit in the Reserve Account following such redemption or partial defeasance equals the Reserve Requirement. The District shall set forth in a Certificate of an Authorized Representative the amount in the Reserve Account to be transferred to the Redemption Account on a redemption date or to be transferred pursuant to the Indenture to partially defease Bonds or Parity Bonds, and the Trustee shall make such transfer on the applicable redemption or defeasance date, subject to the limitation in the preceding sentence.

A separate subaccount of the Rebate Account and the Alternate Penalty Account shall be established for the Bonds and each issue of Parity Bonds the interest on which is excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes. All amounts on deposit in the Rebate Fund with respect to the Bonds or an issue of Parity Bonds shall be governed by this Section 3.7 and the Tax Certificate for such issue, unless the District obtains an opinion of Bond Counsel that the exclusion from gross income for federal income tax purposes of interest payments on the Bonds and Parity Bonds will not be adversely affected if such requirements are not satisfied. (1) Rebate Account. The following requirements shall be satisfied with respect to each subaccount of the Rebate Account: (i) Annual Computation. Within 55 days of the end of each Bond Year, the District shall calculate or cause to be calculated the amount of rebatable arbitrage for the Bonds and each issue of Parity Bonds to which this Section 3.7 is applicable, in accordance with 21 4850-8632-0382/200299-0007 Section 148(f)(2) of the Code and Section 1.148-3 of the Rebate Regulations (taking into account any applicable exceptions with respect to the computation of the rebatable arbitrage described in the Tax Certificate for each issue (e.g., the temporary investments exceptions of Section 148(f)(4)(B) and (C) of the Code), and taking into account whether the election pursuant to Section 148(f)(4)(C)(vii) of the Code (the "1'V2% Penalty") has been made), for this purpose treating the last day of the applicable Bond Year as a computation date, within the meaning of Section 1.148-1(b) of the Rebate Regulations (the "Rebatable Arbitrage"). The District shall obtain expert advice as to the amount of the Rebatable Arbitrage to comply with this Section. (ii) Annual Transfer. Within 55 days of the end of each Bond Year for which Rebatable Arbitrage must be calculated as required by the Tax Certificate for each issue, upon the written direction of an Authorized Representative of the District, an amount shall be deposited to each subaccount of the Rebate Account by the Trustee from any funds so designated by the District if and to the extent required, so that the balance in the Rebate Account shall equal the amount of Rebatable Arbitrage so calculated by or on behalf of the District in accordance with clause (i) of this subsection (a)(1) with respect to the Bonds and each issue of Parity Bonds to which this Section 3.7 is applicable. In the event that immediately following any transfer required by the previous sentence, or the date on which the District determines that no transfer is required for such Bond Year, the amount then on deposit to the credit of the applicable subaccount of the Rebate Account exceeds the amount required to be on deposit therein, upon written instructions from an Authorized Representative of the District, the Trustee shall withdraw the excess from the appropriate subaccount of the Rebate Account and then credit the excess to the Special Tax Fund. (iii) Payment to the Treasury. The Trustee shall pay, as directed in writing by an Authorized Representative of the District, to the United States Treasury, out of amounts in each subaccount of the Rebate Account: (X) not later than 60 days after the end of: (A) the fifth Bond Year for the Bonds and each issue of Parity Bonds to which this Section 3.7 is applicable; and (B) each applicable fifth Bond Year thereafter, an amount equal to at least 90% of the Rebatable Arbitrage calculated as of the end of such Bond Year for the Bonds and each issue of Parity Bonds, as applicable; and (Y) not later than 60 days after the payment or redemption of all of the Bonds or an issue of Parity Bonds, as applicable, an amount equal to 100% of the Rebatable Arbitrage calculated as of the end of such applicable Bond Year, and any income attributable to the Rebatable Arbitrage, computed in accordance with Section 148(f) of the Code. In the event that, prior to the time of any payment required to be made from the Rebate Account, the amount in the Rebate Account is not sufficient to make such payment when such payment is due, the District shall calculate or cause to be calculated the amount of such deficiency and deposit an amount received from any legally available source equal to such deficiency prior to the time such payment is due. Each payment required to be made pursuant to this subsection (a)(1) shall be made to the Internal Revenue Service Center, Ogden, Utah 84201 on or before the date on which such payment is due, and shall be accompanied by Internal Revenue Service Form 8038-T, or shall be made in such other manner as provided under the Code. 22 4850-8632-0382/200299-0007 (2) Alternate Penalty Account.

In the event that immediately following any transfer provided for in the previous sentence, or the date on which the District determines that no transfer is required for such Bond Year, the amount then on deposit in a subaccount of the Alternate Penalty Account exceeds the amount required to be on deposit therein to make the payments required by subsection (iii) below, the Trustee, at the written direction of an Authorized Representative of the District, may withdraw the excess from the applicable subaccount of the Alternate Penalty Account and credit the excess to the Special Tax Fund. (iii) Payment to the Treasury. The Trustee shall pay, as directed in writing by an Authorized Representative of the District, to the United States Treasury, out of amounts in a subaccount of the Alternate Penalty Account, not later than 90 days after the close of each Six -Month Period the 11/2% Penalty, if applicable and payable, computed with respect to the Bonds and any issue of Parity Bonds in accordance with Section 148(f)(4) of the Code. In the event that, prior to the time of any payment required to be made from a subaccount of the Alternate Penalty Account, the amount in such subaccount is not sufficient to make such payment when such payment is due, the District shall calculate the amount of such deficiency and direct the Trustee, in writing, to deposit an amount equal to such deficiency into such subaccount of the Alternate Penalty Account from any funds held by the Trustee pursuant to this Indenture and designated by the District in such written directions prior to the time such payment is due. Each payment required to be made pursuant to this subsection (a)(2) shall be made to the Internal Revenue Service, Ogden, Utah 84201 on or before the date on which such payment is due, and shall be accompanied by Internal Revenue Service Form 8038-T or shall be made in such other manner as provided under the Code.

This Section 3.7 may be deleted or amended in any manner without the consent of the Owners, provided that prior to such event there is delivered to the District an opinion of Bond Counsel to the effect that such deletion or amendment will not adversely affect the exclusion from gross income for federal income tax purposes of interest on the Bonds and any issue of Parity Bonds issued on a tax-exempt basis. (e) Trustee. The Trustee shall have no responsibility to monitor or calculate any amounts payable to the U.S. Treasury pursuant to this Section and shall be deemed constructively to have complied with its obligations hereunder if it follows the written instructions of the District given pursuant to this Section.

Moneys deposited in the Surplus Fund will be transferred by the Trustee at the direction of an Authorized Representative of the District: (i) to the Interest Account, the Principal Account or the Redemption Account of the Special Tax Fund to pay the principal of, including Sinking Fund Payments, premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds and any Parity Bonds when due in the event that moneys in the Special Tax Fund and the Reserve Account of the Special Tax Fund are insufficient therefor; (ii) to the Reserve Account in order to replenish the Reserve Account to the Reserve Requirement; (iii) to the Administrative Expense Account of the Special Tax Fund to pay Administrative Expenses to the extent that the amounts on deposit in the Administrative Expense Account of the Special Tax Fund are insufficient to pay Administrative Expenses; (iv) to the Acquisition and Construction Fund to pay Project Costs; or (v) after all Project Costs have been paid, to the District, for any other lawful purpose of the District.

Such amounts shall be disbursed as directed by an Authorized Representative of the District. Section 3.9. Acquisition and Construction Fund. (a) The moneys in the Costs of Issuance Account shall be disbursed by the Trustee pursuant to a Certificate of an Authorized Representative of the District, and any balance remaining 24 4850-8632-0382/200299-0007 therein after 180 days shall be transferred by the Trustee to an Account within the Acquisition and Construction Fund as directed in writing by an Authorized Representative of the District.

Such notice shall further state that on the date fixed for redemption, there shall become due and payable on each Bond, Parity Bond or portion thereof called for redemption, the principal thereof, together with any premium, and interest accrued to the redemption date, and that from and after such date, interest thereon shall cease to accrue and be payable. At least 30 days but no more than 45 days prior to the redemption date, the Trustee shall mail a copy of such notice of redemption, by first class mail, postage prepaid, to the respective Owners thereof at their addresses appearing on the Bond Register, and to the original purchaser of any Bonds or Parity Bonds; provided, however, so long as the Bonds and Parity Bonds are registered in the name of the Nominee, such notice shall be given in such manner as complies with the requirements of the Depository. The actual receipt by the Owner of any Bond or Parity Bond of notice of such redemption shall not be a condition precedent to redemption, and neither the failure to receive nor any defect in such notice shall affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of such Bonds or Parity Bonds, or the cessation of interest on the redemption date. A certificate by the Trustee that notice of such redemption has been given as herein provided shall be conclusive as against all parties and the Owner shall not be entitled to show that he or she failed to receive notice of such redemption. 30 4850-8632-0382/200299-0007 In addition to the foregoing notice, further notice shall be given by the Trustee as set out below, but no defect in said further notice nor any failure to give all or any portion of such further notice shall in any manner defeat the effectiveness of a call for redemption if notice thereof is given as above prescribed. Each further notice of redemption shall be sent not later than the date that notice of redemption is given to the Owners pursuant to the first paragraph of this Section by first class mail or facsimile to the Depository and to any other registered securities depositories then in the business of holding substantial amounts of obligations of types comprising the Bonds and Parity Bonds as determined by the Trustee and to one or more of the national information services that the Trustee determines are in the business of disseminating notice of redemption of obligations such as the Bonds and Parity Bonds. Upon the payment of the redemption price of any Bonds and Parity Bonds being redeemed, each check or other transfer of funds issued for such purpose shall to the extent practicable bear the CUSIP number identifying, by issue and maturity, the Bonds and Parity Bonds being redeemed with the proceeds of such check or other transfer. With respect to any notice of optional redemption of Bonds or Parity Bonds, such notice may state that such redemption shall be conditional upon the receipt by the Trustee on or prior to the date fixed for such redemption of moneys sufficient to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on such Bonds or Parity Bonds to be redeemed and that, if the District determines that such moneys will not be so received on or prior to the redemption date, said notice shall be of no force and effect and the Trustee shall not be required to redeem such Bonds or Parity Bonds. If any condition stated in the redemption notice for an optional redemption shall not have been satisfied on or prior to the redemption date: (i) the redemption notice shall be of no force and effect, (ii) the District shall not be required to redeem such Bonds or Parity Bonds, (iii) the redemption shall not be made, and (iv) the Trustee shall within a reasonable time thereafter give notice to the persons in the manner in which the conditional redemption notice was given that such condition or conditions were not met and that the redemption was canceled. Section 4.4. Partial Redemption of Bonds or Parity Bonds. Upon surrender of any Bond or Parity Bond to be redeemed in part only, the District shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Owner, at the expense of the District, a new Bond or Bonds or a new Parity Bond or Parity Bonds of authorized denominations equal in aggregate principal amount to the unredeemed portion of the Bonds surrendered, with the same interest rate and the same maturity or, in the case of surrender of a Parity Bond, a new Parity Bond or Parity Bonds subject to the foregoing limitations. Section 4.5. Effect of Notice and Availability of Redemption Money. Notice of redemption having been duly given, as provided in Section 4.3 hereof, and the amount necessary for the redemption having been made available for that purpose and being available therefor on the date fixed for such redemption: (a) the Bonds and Parity Bonds, or portions thereof, designated for redemption shall, on the date fixed for redemption, become due and payable at the redemption price thereof as provided in this Indenture or in any Supplemental Indenture with respect to any Parity Bonds, anything in this Indenture or in the Bonds or the Parity Bonds to the contrary notwithstanding; 31 4850-8632-0382/200299-0007 (b) upon presentation and surrender thereof at the office of the Trustee, the redemption price of such Bonds and Parity Bonds shall be paid to the Owners thereof; (c) as of the redemption date the Bonds or the Parity Bonds, or portions thereof so designated for redemption shall be deemed to be no longer Outstanding and such Bonds or Parity Bonds, or portions thereof, shall cease to bear further interest; and (d) as of the date fixed for redemption no Owner of any of the Bonds, Parity Bonds or portions thereof so designated for redemption shall be entitled to any of the benefits of this Indenture or any Supplemental Indenture, or to any other rights, except with respect to payment of the redemption price and interest accrued to the redemption date from the amounts so made available. ARTICLE V COVENANTS AND WARRANTY Section 5.1. Warranty. The District shall preserve and protect the security pledged hereunder to the Bonds and any Parity Bonds against all claims and demands of all persons. Section 5.2. Covenants. So long as any of the Bonds or Parity Bonds issued hereunder are Outstanding and unpaid, the District makes the following covenants with the Owners under the provisions of the Act and this Indenture (to be performed by the District or its proper officers, agents or employees), which covenants are necessary and desirable to secure the Bonds and Parity Bonds and tend to make them more marketable; provided, however, that said covenants do not require the District to expend any funds or moneys other than the Special Taxes and other amounts deposited to the Special Tax Fund: (a) Punctual Payment; Against Encumbrances. The District covenants that it will receive all Special Taxes in trust for the Owners and will deposit all Special Taxes with the Trustee immediately upon their apportionment to the District, and the District shall have no beneficial right or interest in the amounts so deposited except as provided by this Indenture. All such Special Taxes shall be disbursed, allocated and applied solely to the uses and purposes set forth herein, and shall be accounted for separately and apart from all other money, funds, accounts or other resources of the District. The District covenants that it will duly and punctually pay or cause to be paid the principal of and interest on every Bond and Parity Bond issued hereunder, together with the premium, if any, thereon on the date, at the place and in the manner set forth in the Bonds and the Parity Bonds and in accordance with this Indenture to the extent that Net Taxes and other amounts pledged hereunder are available therefor, and that the payments into the Funds and Accounts created hereunder will be made, all in strict conformity with the terms of the Bonds, any Parity Bonds, and this Indenture, and that it will faithfully observe and perform all of the conditions, covenants and requirements of this Indenture and all Supplemental Indentures and of the Bonds and any Parity Bonds issued hereunder. The District will not mortgage or otherwise encumber, pledge or place any charge upon any of the Net Taxes except as provided in this Indenture, and will not issue any obligation or security having a lien or charge upon the Net Taxes superior to or on a parity with the Bonds, other than Parity Bonds. Nothing herein shall prevent the District from issuing or incurring indebtedness which is payable from a pledge of Net Taxes which is subordinate in all respects to the pledge of Net Taxes 32 485 0-8632-03 82/200299-0007 to repay the Bonds and the Parity Bonds, subject to compliance with the District's bonded indebtedness limit. (b) Levy of Special Tax. Beginning in Fiscal Year 2022-23 and so long as any Bonds or Parity Bonds issued under this Indenture are Outstanding, the District covenants to levy the Special Tax in an amount sufficient, together with other amounts on deposit in the Special Tax Fund, to pay: (1) the principal of and interest on the Bonds and any Parity Bonds when due; (2) the Administrative Expenses; and (3) any amounts required to replenish the Reserve Account of the Special Tax Fund to the Reserve Requirement, including any amounts to pay costs related to the Reserve Policy, if any. The District further covenants that it will take no actions that would discontinue or cause the discontinuance of the Special Tax levy or the District's authority to levy the Special Tax for so long as the Bonds and any Parity Bonds are Outstanding. (c) Commence Foreclosure Proceedings. The District covenants for the benefit of the Owners of the Bonds and any Parity Bonds that it will: (i) commence judicial foreclosure proceedings against parcels with delinquent Special Taxes in excess of $5,000 by the October 1 following the close of each Fiscal Year in which such Special Taxes were due; and (ii) commence judicial foreclosure proceedings against all parcels with delinquent Special Taxes by the October 1 following the close of each Fiscal Year in which it receives Special Taxes in an amount which is less than 95% of the total Special Tax levied; and (iii) diligently pursue such foreclosure proceedings until the delinquent Special Taxes are paid; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the District may elect to defer foreclosure proceedings on any parcel so long as the amount in the Reserve Account is at least equal to the Reserve Requirement. The District may, but shall not be obligated to, advance funds from any source of legally available funds in order to maintain the Reserve Account. The District may treat any delinquent Special Tax sold to an independent third -party or to the City for at least 100% of the delinquent amount as having been paid. Proceeds of any such sale up to 100% of the delinquent amount will be deposited in the Special Tax Fund. The District covenants that it will deposit the net proceeds of any foreclosure in the Special Tax Fund and will apply such proceeds remaining after the payment of Administrative Expenses to make current payments of principal and interest on the Bonds and any Parity Bonds, to bring the amount on deposit in the Reserve Account up to the Reserve Requirement and to pay any delinquent installments of principal or interest due on the Bonds and any Parity Bonds. (d) Payment of Claims. The District will pay and discharge any and all lawful claims for labor, materials or supplies which, if unpaid, might become a lien or charge upon the Net Taxes or other funds in the Special Tax Fund (other than the Administrative Expense Account therein), or which might impair the security of the Bonds or any Parity Bonds then Outstanding; provided, however, that nothing herein contained shall require the District to make any such payments so long as the District in good faith shall contest the validity of any such claims. (e) Books and Accounts. The District will keep proper books of records and accounts, separate from all other records and accounts of the District, in which complete and correct entries shall be made of all transactions relating to the Project, the levy of the Special Tax and the deposits to the Special Tax Fund. Such books of records and accounts shall at all times during business hours be subject to the inspection of the Trustee or of the Owners or the Owners of any issue of Parity Bonds then Outstanding or their representatives authorized in writing. 33 4850-8632-0382/200299-0007 (f) Federal Tax Covenants. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, absent an opinion of Bond Counsel that the exclusion from gross income of interest on the Bonds and any Parity Bonds issued on a tax-exempt basis for federal income tax purposes will not be adversely affected for federal income tax purposes, the District covenants to comply with all applicable requirements of the Code necessary to preserve such exclusion from gross income and specifically covenants, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, as follows: (1) Private Activity. The District will take no action or refrain from taking any action or make any use of the proceeds of the Bonds or any Parity Bonds or of any other monies or property which would cause the Bonds or any Parity Bonds issued on a tax-exempt basis for federal income tax purposes to be "private activity bonds" within the meaning of Section 141 of the Code. (2) Arbitrage. The District will make no use of the proceeds of the Bonds or any Parity Bonds or of any other amounts or property, regardless of the source, or take any action or refrain from taking any action which will cause the Bonds or any Parity Bonds issued on a tax-exempt basis for federal income tax purposes to be "arbitrage bonds" within the meaning of Section 148 of the Code. (3) Federal Guaranty. The District will make no use of the proceeds of the Bonds or any Parity Bonds or take or omit to take any action that would cause the Bonds or any Parity Bonds issued on a tax-exempt basis for federal income tax purposes to be "federally guaranteed" within the meaning of Section 149(b) of the Code. (4) Information Resorting. The District will take or cause to be taken all necessary action to comply with the informational reporting requirement of Section 149(e) of the Code. (5) Hedge Bonds. The District will make no use of the proceeds of the Bonds or any Parity Bonds or any other amounts or property, regardless of the source, or take any action or refrain from taking any action that would cause the Bonds or any Parity Bonds issued on a tax-exempt basis for federal income tax purposes to be considered "hedge bonds" within the meaning of Section 149(g) of the Code unless the District takes all necessary action to assure compliance with the requirements of Section 149(g) of the Code to maintain the exclusion from gross income for federal income tax purposes of interest on the Bonds and any applicable Parity Bonds. (6) Miscellaneous. The District will take no action or refrain from taking any action inconsistent with its expectations stated in the Tax Certificate executed on the Delivery Date by the District in connection with the Bonds and any issue of Parity Bonds and will comply with the covenants and requirements stated therein and incorporated by reference herein. (7) Other Tax -Exempt Issues. The District will not use proceeds of other tax-exempt securities to redeem any Bonds or Parity Bonds without first obtaining the written opinion of Bond Counsel that doing so will not impair the exclusion from gross income for federal income tax purposes of interest on the Bonds and any Parity Bonds issued on a tax-exempt basis. (8) Subsequent ORinions. If the District obtains a subsequent opinion of Bond Counsel other than Stradling Yocca Carlson & Rauth, a Professional Corporation, where such opinion is required in connection with a change or amendment to this Indenture or the procedures set forth in the Tax Certificate, it will obtain an opinion substantially to the effect originally delivered by 34 4850-8632-0382/200299-0007 Stradling Yocca Carlson & Rauth, a Professional Corporation, that interest on the Bonds is excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes. (g) Reduction of Maximum Special Taxes. The District hereby finds and determines that, historically, delinquencies in the payment of special taxes authorized pursuant to the Act in community facilities districts in Southern California have from time to time been at levels requiring the levy of special taxes at the maximum authorized rates in order to make timely payment of principal of and interest on the outstanding indebtedness of such community facilities districts. For this reason, the District hereby determines that a reduction in the maximum Special Tax rates authorized to be levied on parcels in the District below the levels provided in this Section 5.2(g) would interfere with the timely retirement of the Bonds and Parity Bonds. The District determines it to be necessary in order to preserve the security for the Bonds and Parity Bonds to covenant, and, to the maximum extent that the law permits it to do so, the District hereby does covenant, that it shall not initiate proceedings to reduce the maximum Special Tax rates for the District, unless, in connection therewith, the District receives a certificate from one or more Independent Financial Consultants which, when taken together, certify that: (i) such changes do not reduce the maximum Special Taxes that may be levied in each year on property within the District to an amount which is less than the Administrative Expense Cap plus 110% of the Annual Debt Service due in each corresponding future Bond Year with respect to the Bonds and Parity Bonds Outstanding as of the date of such proposed reduction; and (ii) the District is not delinquent in the payment of the principal of or interest on the Bonds or any Parity Bonds. (h) Covenants to Defend. The District covenants that, in the event that any initiative is adopted by the qualified electors in the District which purports to reduce the maximum Special Tax below the levels specified in Section 5.2(g) above or to limit the power of the District to levy the Special Taxes for the purposes set forth in Section 5.2(b) above, it will commence and pursue legal action in order to preserve its ability to comply with such covenants. (i) Limitation on Right to Tender_ Bonds. The District hereby covenants that it will not adopt any policy pursuant to Section 53344.1 of the Act permitting the tender of Bonds or Parity Bonds in full payment or partial payment of any Special Taxes unless the District shall have first received a certificate from an Independent Financial Consultant that the acceptance of such a tender will not result in the District having insufficient Net Taxes to pay the principal of and interest on the Bonds and Parity Bonds when due. 0) Continuing Disclosure. The District covenants to comply with the terms of the Continuing Disclosure Certificate and with the terms of any agreement executed by the District with respect to any Parity Bonds to assist the Underwriter in complying with Rule 15c2-12 adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission; provided, however, that a failure to comply shall not be considered an event of default hereunder and the Owners shall be limited to enforcing the terms thereof in accordance with the terms of the Continuing Disclosure Certificate. (k) Further Assurances. The District shall make, execute and deliver any and all such further agreements, instruments and assurances as may be reasonably necessary or proper to carry out the intention or to facilitate the performance of this Indenture and for the better assuring and confirming unto the Owners of the Bonds and any Parity Bonds of the rights and benefits provided in this Indenture. 061 4850-8632-0382/200299-0007 ARTICLE VI AMENDMENTS TO INDENTURE Section 6.1. Supplemental Indentures or Orders Not Requiring Owner Consent. The District may from time to time, and at any time, without notice to or consent of any of the Owners, adopt Supplemental Indentures for any of the following purposes: (a) to cure any ambiguity, to correct or supplement any provisions herein which may be inconsistent with any other provision herein, or to make any other provision with respect to matters or questions arising under this Indenture or in any additional resolution or order, provided that such action is not materially adverse to the interests of the Owners; (b) to add to the covenants and agreements of and the limitations and the restrictions upon the District contained in this Indenture other covenants, agreements, limitations and restrictions to be observed by the District which are not contrary to or inconsistent with this Indenture as theretofore in effect or which further secure Bond or Parity Bond payments; (c) to provide for the issuance of any Parity Bonds, and to provide the terms and conditions under which such Parity Bonds may be issued, subject to and in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture; (d) to modify, amend or supplement this Indenture in such manner as to permit the qualification hereof under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended, or any similar federal statute hereafter in effect, or to comply with the Code or regulations issued thereunder, and to add such other terms, conditions and provisions as may be permitted by said act or similar federal statute, and which shall not materially adversely affect the interests of the Owners of the Bonds or any Parity Bonds then Outstanding; (e) to modify, alter or amend the RMA in any manner, so long as the Trustee receives a certificate of an Independent Financial Consultant stating that: (i) such changes do not reduce the maximum Special Taxes that may be levied in each year on property within the District to an amount which is less than the Administrative Expense Cap plus 110% of the Annual Debt Service due in each corresponding future Bond Year with respect to the Bonds and Parity Bonds Outstanding as of the date of such amendment and (ii) based on the current development plan for parcels within the District, do not reduce the maximum Special Taxes which could be levied upon Taxable Property within the District to an amount which is less than the Administrative Expense Cap plus 110% of the Annual Debt Service due in each corresponding future Bond Year with respect to the Bonds and Parity Bonds Outstanding as of the date of such amendment; (f) to modify, alter, amend or supplement this Indenture in any other respect which is not materially adverse to the Owners; or (g) to modify, alter, amend or supplement this Indenture in any other respect, as may be required to fund all or a portion of the Reserve Requirement with a Reserve Policy. Section 6.2. Supplemental Indentures or Orders Requiring Owner Consent. Exclusive of the Supplemental Indentures described in Section 6.1, the Owners of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Bonds and Parity Bonds Outstanding shall have the 36 4850-8632-0382/200299-0007 right to consent to and approve the adoption by the District of such Supplemental Indentures as shall be deemed necessary or desirable by the District for the purpose of waiving, modifying, altering, amending, adding to or rescinding, in any particular, any of the terms or provisions contained in this Indenture; provided, however, that nothing herein shall permit, or be construed as permitting: (a) an extension of the maturity date of the principal, or the payment date of interest on, any Bond or Parity Bond; (b) a reduction in the principal amount of, or redemption premium on, any Bond or Parity Bond or the rate of interest thereon; (c) a preference or priority of any Bond or Parity Bond over any other Bond or Parity Bond; or (d) a reduction in the aggregate principal amount of the Bonds and Parity Bonds the Owners of which are required to consent to such Supplemental Indenture, without the consent of the Owners of all Bonds and Parity Bonds then Outstanding. If at any time the District shall desire to adopt a Supplemental Indenture, which pursuant to the terms of this Section shall require the consent of the Owners, the District shall so notify the Trustee and shall deliver to the Trustee a copy of the proposed Supplemental Indenture. The Trustee shall, at the expense of the District, cause notice of the proposed Supplemental Indenture to be mailed, by first class mail, postage prepaid, to all Owners at their addresses as they appear in the Bond Register. Such notice shall briefly set forth the nature of the proposed Supplemental Indenture and shall state that a copy thereof is on file at the office of the Trustee for inspection by all Owners. The failure of any Owners to receive such notice shall not affect the validity of such Supplemental Indenture when consented to and approved by the Owners of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Bonds and Parity Bonds Outstanding as required by this Section. Whenever at any time within one year after the date of the first mailing of such notice, the Trustee shall receive an instrument or instruments purporting to be executed by the Owners of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Bonds and Parity Bonds Outstanding, which instrument or instruments shall refer to the proposed Supplemental Indenture described in such notice, and shall specifically consent to and approve the adoption thereof by the District substantially in the form of the copy referred to in such notice as on file with the Trustee, such proposed Supplemental Indenture, when duly adopted by the District, shall thereafter become a part of the proceedings for the issuance of the Bonds and any Parity Bonds. In determining whether the Owners of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Bonds and Parity Bonds have consented to the adoption of any Supplemental Indenture, Bonds or Parity Bonds which are owned by the District or by any person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under the direct or indirect common control with the District, shall be disregarded and shall be treated as though they were not Outstanding for the purpose of any such determination. Upon the adoption of any Supplemental Indenture and the receipt of consent to any such Supplemental Indenture from the Owners of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Bonds and Parity Bonds in instances where such consent is required pursuant to the provisions of this Section, this Indenture shall be, and shall be deemed to be, modified and amended in accordance therewith, and the respective rights, duties and obligations under this Indenture of the District and all Owners of Outstanding Bonds and Parity Bonds shall thereafter be determined, exercised and enforced hereunder, subject in all respects to such modifications and amendments. Section 6.3. Notation of Bonds or Parity Bonds; Delivery of Amended Bonds or Parity Bonds. After the effective date of any action taken as hereinabove provided, the District may determine that the Bonds or any Parity Bonds may bear a notation, by endorsement in form approved by the District, as to such action, and in that case upon demand of the Owner of any Outstanding Bond or Parity Bond at such effective date and presentation of such Owner's Bond or Parity Bond for the purpose at the office of the Trustee or at such additional offices as the Trustee may select and 37 4850-8632-0382/200299-0007 designate for that purpose, a suitable notation as to such action shall be made on such Bonds or Parity Bonds. If the District shall so determine, new Bonds or Parity Bonds so modified as, in the opinion of the District, shall be necessary to conform to such action shall be prepared and executed, and in that case upon demand of the Owner of any Outstanding Bond or Parity Bond at such effective date such new Bonds or Parity Bonds shall be exchanged at the office of the Trustee or at such additional offices as the Trustee may select and designate for that purpose, without cost to each Owner of Outstanding Bonds or Parity Bonds, upon surrender of such Outstanding Bonds or Parity Bonds. The Trustee shall have the right to require such opinions of counsel as it deems necessary concerning: (i) the lack of material adverse effect of the amendment on Owners; and (ii) the fact that the amendment will not affect the tax status of interest with respect to the Bonds.

The foregoing obligation of the District to indemnify the Trustee shall survive the removal or resignation of the Trustee or the discharge of the Bonds and Parity Bonds. Section 7.2. Removal of Trustee.

Whenever in the administration of its express obligations under this Indenture the Trustee shall deem it necessary or desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking or suffering any action hereunder, the Trustee may, at the expense of the District, request, rely on and act in accordance with officer's certificates and/or opinions of counsel (unless other evidence in respect thereof be herein specifically prescribed), and shall incur no liability and shall be fully protected in acting or refraining from acting in accordance with such officer's certificates and opinions of counsel, but in its discretion the Trustee may but shall not be obligated to accept other evidence of such matter or may require such additional evidence as to it may seem reasonable. It is understood and agreed that no such act shall broaden or imply the Trustee's acceptance of a broadening of the scope of the Trustee's duties and obligations hereunder unless the Trustee shall provide written acceptance thereof. The Trustee shall have no duty or obligation whatsoever to enforce the collection of Special Taxes or other funds to be deposited with it hereunder, or as to the correctness of any amounts received, but its liability shall be limited to the proper accounting for such funds as it actually receives. No provision in this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or 40 4850-8632-0382/200299-0007 otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of its rights or powers. The Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any default or event of default under this Indenture until an officer at the Trustee's corporate trust office responsible for the administration of its duties hereunder shall have actual knowledge thereof or the Trustee shall have received written notice thereof at its corporate trust office. The Trustee shall have no responsibility with respect to any information, statement, or recital in any official statement, offering memorandum or any other disclosure material prepared or distributed with respect to the Bonds and any Parity Bonds. Before taking any action under Article VIII hereof the Trustee may require that indemnity and security satisfactory to the Trustee in its sole and exclusive discretion be furnished to it for and from any expenses and liabilities and to protect it against any liability it may incur hereunder. The immunities extended to the Trustee also extend to its directors, officers, employees and agents (including its counsel). The Trustee shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the direction of the Owners of 25% (or other percentage provided for herein) in aggregate principal amount of Bonds and Parity Bonds Outstanding relating to the exercise of any right, power or remedy available to the Trustee. In the event of conflicting instructions hereunder, the Trustee shall have the right to decide the appropriate course of action and will be protected in so doing. The permissive right of the Trustee to do things enumerated in this Indenture shall not be construed as a duty or in any way expand or impliedly expand the scope of the Trustee's duties hereunder, and, with respect to such permissive rights, the Trustee shall not be answerable for other than its gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereof and perform any of its duties through attorneys, agents and receivers and shall not be answerable for the conduct of the same if appointed by it with reasonable care. The Trustee shall be entitled to rely on and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Trustee in accordance with the advice of counsel or other professionals retained or consulted by the Trustee. The Trustee may become the Owner or pledgee of the Bonds and Parity Bonds with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. The Trustee shall perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture and no implied duties or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee. These duties shall be deemed purely ministerial in nature, and the Trustee shall not be liable except for the performance of such duties. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise, as a prudent person. The District shall, to the extent permitted by law, indemnify and save the Trustee and its officers, directors, agents, and employees harmless from and against (whether or not litigated) all 41 4850-8632-0382/200299-0007 claims, losses, costs, expenses, liability and damages, including legal fees and expenses, arising out of. (i) the use, maintenance, condition or management of, or from any work or thing done on, the Project; (ii) any breach or default on the part of the District in the performance of any of its obligations under this Indenture and any other agreement made and entered into for purposes of the Bonds and Parity Bonds; (iii) any act of the City, the District or of any of its agents, contractors, servants, employees or licensees with respect to the Project; (iv) any act of any assignee of, or purchaser from, the City, the District or of any of its or their agents, contractors, servants, employees or licensees with respect to the Project; (v) the construction or acquisition of the Project or the expenditure of Project Costs; (vi) the exercise and performance by the Trustee of its powers and duties hereunder or any related document; (vii) the sale of the Bonds and Parity Bonds and the carrying out of any of the transactions contemplated by the Bonds and Parity Bonds or this Indenture; or (viii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact necessary to make the statements made in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading in any official statement or other disclosure document utilized in connection with the sale or marketing of the Bonds and Parity Bonds. The indemnification set forth in this Section shall extend to the Trustee's officers, agents, employees, successors and assigns. No indemnification will be made under this Section or elsewhere in this Indenture or other agreements for willful misconduct or negligence by the Trustee, its officers, agents, employees, successors or assigns. The District's obligations hereunder shall remain valid and binding notwithstanding maturity and payment of the Bonds and Parity Bonds, or the resignation or removal of the Trustee. In accepting the trust hereby created, the Trustee acts solely as Trustee for the Owners and not in its individual capacity, and all persons, including, without limitation, the Owners, the District and the City, having any claim against the Trustee arising from this Indenture shall look only to the funds and accounts held by the Trustee hereunder for payment, except as otherwise provided herein. Under no circumstances shall the Trustee be liable in its individual capacity for the obligations evidenced by the Bonds and any Parity Bonds. THE TRUSTEE MAKES NO WARRANTY OR REPRESENTATION, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, AS TO THE VALUE, DESIGN, CONDITION, MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR ANY PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR FITNESS FOR THE USE CONTEMPLATED BY THE DISTRICT OF THE PROJECT, OR ANY PORTION THEREOF. In no event shall the Trustee be liable for incidental, indirect, punitive, special or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, loss of profit), in connection with or arising out of the Project or this Indenture for the existence, furnishing, functioning or use and possession of the Project, irrespective of whether the Trustee has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action. The Trustee shall not be liable to the parties hereto or deemed in breach or default hereunder if and to the extent its performance hereunder is prevented by reason of force majeure. The term "force majeure" means an occurrence that is beyond the control of the Trustee and could not have been avoided by exercising due care. Force majeure shall include, but not limited to, any act or provision of any present or future law or regulation or governmental authority; acts of God; earthquakes; fires; floods; wars; terrorism; civil or military disturbances; sabotage; epidemics; quarantine restrictions; riots; interruptions, loss or malfunctions of utilities, computer (hardware or software) or communications service; accidents; labor disputes; acts of civil or military authority or governmental actions; or the unavailability of the Federal Reserve Bank wire or telex or other wire or communication facility; or other similar occurrences. 42 4850-8632-0382/200299-0007 The Trustee shall be entitled to request and receive written instructions from the District or other parties and shall have no responsibility or liability for any losses or damages of any nature that may arise from any action taken or not taken by the Trustee in accordance with the written direction of the District or such other parties. The Trustee shall have the right to accept and act upon directions given pursuant to this Indenture and delivered using electronic notice; provided, however, that the District shall provide to the Trustee an incumbency certificate listing each Authorized Representative of the District with the authority to provide such directions and containing specimen signatures of such authorized officers, which incumbency certificate shall be amended whenever a person is to be added or deleted from the listing. If the District elects to give the Trustee directions using electronic notice and the Trustee in its discretion elects to act upon such directions, the Trustee's understanding of such directions shall be deemed controlling. The District understands and agrees that the Trustee cannot determine the identity of the actual sender of such directions and that the Trustee shall conclusively presume that directions that purport to have been sent by an authorized officer listed on the incumbency certificate provided to the Trustee have been sent by such Authorized Representative of the District. The District shall be responsible for ensuring that only an Authorized Representative of the District shall transmit such directions to the Trustee and that each Authorized Representative of the District treat applicable user and authorization codes, passwords and/or authentication keys with extreme care. The Trustee shall not be liable for any losses, costs or expenses arising directly or indirectly from the Trustee's reliance upon and a compliance with such directions, notwithstanding such directions conflict or are inconsistent with a subsequent written direction. The District agrees (i) to assume all risks arising out of the use of electronic notice to submit directions to the Trustee, including, without limitation, the risk of the Trustee acting on unauthorized directions, and the risk of interception and misuse by third parties; (ii) that it is fully informed of the protections and risks associated with the various methods of transmitting directions to the Trustee and that there may be more secure methods of transmitting directions than the method(s) selected by the District; and (iii) that the security procedures (if any) to be followed in connection with its transmission of directions provide to it a commercially reasonable degree of protection in light of its particular needs and circumstances. Section 7.5. Merger or Consolidation. Any company into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated or any company resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which it shall be a party or any company to which the Trustee may sell or transfer all or substantially all of its corporate trust business, shall be the successor to the Trustee without the execution or filing of any paper or further act, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding.

Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, any Owner may pursue any available remedy at law or in equity to enforce the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Outstanding Bonds and Parity Bonds, and to enforce any rights of the Trustee under or with respect to this Indenture, including: (a) by mandamus or other suit or proceeding at law or in equity to enforce his rights against the District and any of the members, officers and employees of the District, and to compel the District or any such members, officers or employees to perform and carry out their duties under the Act and their agreements with the Owners as provided in this Indenture; (b) by suit in equity to enjoin any actions or things which are unlawful or violate the rights of the Owners; or (c) by a suit in equity to require the District and its members, officers and employees to account as the trustee of an express trust.

No remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Owners is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy. Every such remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing, at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise, and may be exercised without exhausting and without regard to any other remedy conferred by the Act or any other law.

Any suit, action or proceeding which any Owner of Bonds or Parity Bonds shall have the right to bring to enforce any right or remedy hereunder may be brought by the Trustee for the equal benefit and protection of all Owners of Bonds and Parity Bonds similarly situated and the Trustee is hereby appointed (and the successive respective Owners of the Bonds and Parity Bonds issued hereunder, by taking and holding the same, shall be conclusively deemed so to have appointed it) the true and lawful attorney in fact of the respective Owners of the Bonds and Parity Bonds for the purposes of bringing any such suit, action or proceeding and to do and perform any and all acts and things for and on behalf of the respective Owners of the Bonds and Parity Bonds as a class or classes, as may be necessary or advisable in the opinion of the Trustee as such attorney -in -fact. Section 8.5. Appointment of Receivers. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder, and upon the filing of a suit or other commencement of judicial proceedings to enforce the rights and of the Owners of the Bonds and Parity Bonds under this Indenture, the Trustee shall be entitled, as a matter of right to which the District expressly agrees, to the appointment of a receiver or 4850-8632-0382/200299-0007 receivers of the Net Taxes and other amounts pledged hereunder, pending such proceedings, with such powers as the court making such appointment shall confer.

A waiver of any default or breach of duty or contract by the Trustee or any Owners shall not affect any subsequent default or breach of duty or contract, or impair any rights or remedies on any such subsequent default or breach. No delay or omission of the Trustee or any Owner of any of the Bonds or Parity Bonds to exercise any right or power accruing upon any default shall impair any such right or power or shall be construed to be a waiver of any such default or an acquiescence therein; and every power and remedy conferred upon the Trustee or the Owners by the Act or by this Article VIII may be enforced and exercised from time to time and as often as shall be deemed expedient by the Trustee or the Owners, as the case may be. Section 8.7. Limitations on Rights and Remedies of Owners. No Owner of any Bond or Parity Bond issued hereunder shall have the right to institute any suit, action or proceeding at law or in equity, for any remedy under or upon this Indenture, unless: (a) such Owner shall have previously given to the Trustee written notice of the occurrence of an Event of Default; (b) the Owners of a majority in aggregate principal amount of all the Bonds and Parity Bonds then Outstanding shall have made written request upon the Trustee to exercise the powers hereinbefore granted or to institute such action, suit or proceeding in its own name; (c) said Owners shall have tendered to the Trustee indemnity and security reasonably acceptable to the Trustee against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in compliance with such request; and (d) the Trustee shall have refused or omitted to comply with such request for a period of sixty (60) days after such written request shall have been received by, and said tender of indemnity and security shall have been made to, the Trustee. Such notification, request, tender of indemnity and security and refusal or omission are hereby declared, in every case, to be conditions precedent to the exercise by any Owner of Bonds and Parity Bonds of any remedy hereunder; it being understood and intended that no one or more Owners of Bonds and Parity Bonds shall have any right in any manner whatever by his or their action to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided, and that all proceedings at law or in equity to enforce any provision of this Indenture shall be instituted, had and maintained in the manner herein provided and for the equal benefit of all Owners of the Outstanding Bonds and Parity Bonds. The right of any Owner of any Bond and Parity Bond to receive payment of the principal of and interest and premium (if any) on such Bond and Parity Bond as herein provided or to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment, shall not be impaired or affected without the written consent of such Owner, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section or any other provision of this Indenture.

ARTICLE IX DEFEASANCE AND PARITY BONDS Section 9.1. Defeasance. If the District shall pay or cause to be paid, or there shall otherwise be paid, to the Owner of an Outstanding Bond or Parity Bond the interest due thereon and the principal thereof, at the times and in the manner stipulated in this Indenture or any Supplemental Indenture, then the Owner of such Bond or Parity Bond shall cease to be entitled to the pledge of Net Taxes, and, other than as set forth below, all covenants, agreements and other obligations of the District to the Owner of such Bond or Parity Bond under this Indenture and any Supplemental Indenture relating to such Parity Bond shall thereupon cease, terminate and become void and be discharged and satisfied. In the event of a defeasance of all Outstanding Bonds and Parity Bonds pursuant to this Section, the Trustee shall execute and deliver to the District all such instruments as may be desirable to evidence such discharge and satisfaction, and the Trustee shall pay over or deliver to the District's general fund all money or securities held by it pursuant to this Indenture which are not required for the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest due on such Bonds and Parity Bonds. Any Outstanding Bond or Parity Bond shall be deemed to have been paid within the meaning expressed in the first paragraph of this Section if such Bond or Parity Bond is paid in any one or more of the following ways: (a) by paying or causing to be paid the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on such Bond or Parity Bond, as and when the same become due and payable; (b) by depositing with the Trustee, in trust, at or before maturity, money which, together with the amounts then on deposit in the Special Tax Fund (exclusive of the Administrative Expense Account) and available for such purpose, is fully sufficient to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on such Bond or Parity Bond, as and when the same shall become due and payable; or (c) by depositing with the Trustee or another escrow bank appointed by the District, in trust, federal securities described in subparagraph (1) of the definition of Authorized Investments, in which the District may lawfully invest its money, in such amount as will be sufficient, together with the interest to accrue thereon and moneys then on deposit in the Special Tax Fund (exclusive of the Administrative Expense Account) and available for such purpose, together with the interest to accrue thereon, to pay and discharge the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on such Bond or Parity Bond, as and when the same shall become due and payable. If paid as provided above, then, at the election of the District, and notwithstanding that any Outstanding Bonds and Parity Bonds shall not have been surrendered for payment, all obligations of the District under this Indenture and any Supplemental Indenture with respect to such Bond or Parity Bond shall cease and terminate, except for the obligation of the Trustee to pay or cause to be paid to the Owners of any such Bond or Parity Bond not so surrendered and paid all sums due thereon, and 47 4850-863 2-03 82/200299-0007 except for the covenants of the District contained in Section 5.2(f) or any covenants in a Supplemental Indenture relating to compliance with the Code. Notice of such election shall be filed with the Trustee not less than ten days prior to the proposed defeasance date, or such shorter period of time as may be acceptable to the Trustee. In connection with a defeasance under (c) above, there shall be provided to the District a verification report from an independent nationally recognized certified public accountant stating its opinion as to the sufficiency of the moneys or securities deposited with the Trustee or the escrow bank to pay and discharge the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on all Outstanding Bonds and Parity Bonds to be defeased in accordance with this Section, as and when the same shall become due and payable, and an opinion of Bond Counsel (which may rely upon the opinion of the certified public accountant) to the effect that the Bonds or Parity Bonds being defeased have been legally defeased in accordance with this Indenture and any applicable Supplemental Indenture. Upon a defeasance, the Trustee, upon request of the District, shall release the rights of the Owners of such Bonds and Parity Bonds which have been defeased under this Indenture and any Supplemental Indenture and execute and deliver to the District all such instruments as may be desirable to evidence such release, discharge and satisfaction. In the case of a defeasance hereunder of all Outstanding Bonds and Parity Bonds, the Trustee shall pay over or deliver to the District any funds held by the Trustee at the time of a defeasance, which are not required for the purpose of paying and discharging the principal of or interest on the Bonds and Parity Bonds when due. The Trustee shall, at the written direction of the District, mail, first class, postage prepaid, a notice to the Owners whose Bonds or Parity Bonds have been defeased, in the form directed by the District, stating that the defeasance has occurred.

The District may at any time after the issuance and delivery of the Bonds hereunder issue Parity Bonds payable from the Net Taxes and other amounts deposited in the Special Tax Fund (other than in the Administrative Expense Account therein) and secured by a lien and charge upon such amounts equal to the lien and charge securing the Outstanding Bonds and any other Parity Bonds theretofore issued hereunder or under any Supplemental Indenture; provided, however, that Parity Bonds may only be issued only for the purposes of refunding all or a portion of the Bonds or Parity Bonds then Outstanding subject to the following specific conditions, which are hereby made conditions precedent to the issuance of any such Parity Bonds: (a) The District shall be in compliance with all covenants set forth in this Indenture and any Supplemental Indenture then in effect and a certificate of the District to that effect shall have been filed with the Trustee; provided, however, that Parity Bonds may be issued notwithstanding that the District is not in compliance with all such covenants so long as immediately following the issuance of such Parity Bonds the District will be in compliance with all such covenants. (b) The issuance of such Parity Bonds shall have been duly authorized pursuant to the Act and all applicable laws, and the issuance of such Parity Bonds shall have been provided for by a Supplemental Indenture duly authorized, executed and delivered by the District which shall specify the following: (1) the purpose for which such Parity Bonds are to be issued and the fund or funds into which the proceeds thereof are to be deposited; (2) the authorized principal amount of such Parity Bonds; 48 4850-8632-0382/200299-0007 (3) the date and the maturity date or dates of such Parity Bonds; provided that: (i) each maturity date shall fall on a September 1; (ii) all such Parity Bonds of like maturity shall be identical in all respects, except as to number; (iii) fixed serial maturities or Sinking Fund Payments, or any combination thereof, shall be established to provide for the retirement of all such Parity Bonds on or before their respective maturity dates; and (iv) the maturity of such Parity Bonds shall not exceed the maturity of the Bonds being refunded; (4) the description of the Parity Bonds, the place of payment thereof and the procedure for execution and authentication; (5) the denominations and method of numbering of such Parity Bonds; (6) the amount and due date of each mandatory Sinking Fund Payment, if any, for such Parity Bonds; (7) the amount, if any, to be deposited from the proceeds of such Parity Bonds in the Reserve Account of the Special Tax Fund to increase the amount therein to the Reserve Requirement; (8) the form of such Parity Bonds; and (9) such other provisions as are necessary or appropriate and not inconsistent with this Indenture. (c) The District shall have received the following documents or money or securities, all of such documents dated or certified, as the case may be, as of the date of delivery of such Parity Bonds by the Trustee (unless the Trustee shall be directed by the District to accept any of such documents bearing a prior date): (1) a certified resolution of the City Council, acting as the legislative body of the District, authorizing the issuance of such Parity Bonds; (2) a written request of the District as to the delivery of such Parity Bonds; (3) an opinion of Bond Counsel and/or general counsel to the District to the effect that: (i) the District has the right and power under the Act to execute and deliver the Supplemental Indenture relating to such Parity Bonds, and such Supplemental Indenture has been duly and lawfully executed by the District, and this Indenture and such Supplemental Indenture are in full force and effect and are valid and binding upon the District and enforceable in accordance with their terms (except as enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization and other similar laws relating to the enforcement of creditors' rights); (ii) this Indenture creates the valid pledge which it purports to create of the Net Taxes and other amounts as provided in this Indenture, subject to the application thereof to the purposes and on the conditions permitted by this Indenture; and (iii) such Parity Bonds are valid and binding limited obligations of the District, enforceable in accordance with their terms (except as enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization and other similar laws relating to the enforcement of creditors' rights) and the terms of this Indenture and the Supplemental Indenture executed and delivered in connection with such Parity Bonds and are entitled to the benefits of this Indenture and such Supplemental Indenture, and such Parity Bonds have been duly and validly authorized and issued in accordance with the Act (or other 49 4850-8632-0382/200299-0007 applicable laws) and this Indenture and such Supplemental Indenture; and a further opinion of Bond Counsel to the effect that, assuming compliance by the District with certain tax covenants, the issuance of the Parity Bonds will not adversely affect the exclusion from gross income for federal income tax purposes of interest on the Bonds and any Parity Bonds theretofore issued on a tax- exempt basis, or the exemption from State of California personal income taxation of interest on any Outstanding Bonds and Parity Bonds theretofore issued; (4) a certificate of the District containing such statements as may be reasonably necessary to show compliance with the requirements of this Indenture; (5) a certificate of an Independent Financial Consultant certifying that in each Bond Year the Annual Debt Service on the Bonds and Parity Bonds to remain Outstanding following the issuance of the Parity Bonds proposed to be issued is less than the Annual Debt Service on the Bonds and Parity Bonds Outstanding prior to the issuance of such Parity Bonds; and (6) such further documents, money and securities as are required by the provisions of this Indenture and the Supplemental Indenture providing for the issuance of such Parity Bonds.

The Trustee shall destroy such Bonds and Parity Bonds, as provided by law, and, upon request of the District, furnish to the District a certificate of such destruction. Section 10.2. Execution of Documents and Proof of Ownership. Any request, direction, consent, revocation of consent, or other instrument in writing required or permitted by this Indenture to be signed or executed by Owners may be in any number of concurrent instruments of similar tenor and may be signed or executed by such Owners in person or by their attorneys appointed by an instrument in writing for that purpose, or by the bank, trust company or other depository for such Bonds.

Where any such instrument is executed by an officer of a corporation or association or a member of a partnership on behalf of such corporation, association or partnership, such signature guarantee shall also constitute sufficient proof of his authority. (b) As to any Bond or Parity Bond, the person in whose name the same shall be registered in the Bond Register shall be deemed and regarded as the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and payment of or on account of the principal of any such Bond or Parity Bond, and the 50 4850-8632-0382/200299-0007 interest thereon, shall be made only to or upon the order of the registered Owner thereof or his or her legal representative. All such payments shall be valid and effectual to satisfy and discharge the liability upon such Bond or Parity Bond and the interest thereon to the extent of the sum or sums to be paid. Neither the District nor the Trustee shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.
