11/12/2024 Item No.1.

Property within the Improvement Area, which is referred to herein as the Four Large Lots. Folsom Real Estate South is in the process of selling the Four Large Lots and has entered into letters of intent with multiple nationally recognized homebuilders to negotiate the sale of the Four Large Lots and other properties within the Folsom Plan Area (but outside of the Improvement Area). Folsom Real Estate South is actively negotiating with one of these homebuilders to acquire and develop its Taxable Property within the Improvement Area. In addition to the Four Large Lots, Folsom Real Estate South also owns an 1l-acre elementary school site within the Improvement Area, which it anticipates selling to the Folsom Cordova Unified School District.

As previously defined, "Folsom Real Estate South" refers to Folsom Real Estate South, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company. Folsom Real Estate South is a land investment company that expects to transfer its Taxable Property within the Improvement Area to an affiliate that will then sell the property to a nationally recognized homebuilder that will develop the land and construct and sell homes to individual homebuyers.

HBT Mangini, LLC ("HBT Mangini"), a Delaware limited liability company, is the managing member of Folsom Real Estate South and an affiliate of Westland. All decisions of HBT Mangini are made by the three officers and directors who are William Bunce, John Hagenbuch and John Telischak, whom are also principals in projects adjacent to the Improvement Area where they (through Westland and its affiliated entities) control land holdings that are planned for the development of nearly 3,500 dwelling units and 1.2 million square feet of commercial and office uses. Messrs. Bunce, Hagenbuch and Telischak also serve as the President, Chairman and Managing Director of Westland, respectively' The three officers are supported by other staff of Westland, including Rick Jordan and Rob Aragon, and Kim Harms, the CFO and a CPA. Mr. Bunce, as President, is responsible for all operating decisions but consults regularly with the Board on most operating decisions and all strategic decisions.

PIan - Fol,som Real South. Folsom Real Estate South is actively negotiating with a builder to acquire and develop its Taxable Property within the Improvement Area. Folsom Real Estate South expects the Four Large Lots to ultimately include 388 detached single-family homes at full development and is in the process of preparing the small lot tentative maps for these units, which it anticipates being approved by the City during the second quarter of 2025. Folsom Real Estate South intends to sell the Four Large Lots in an o'as-is" condition to a nationally recognized homebuilder. If the currently anticipated sale of the Four Large Lots should not close, Folsom Real Estate South expects that it would seek one or more separate additional buyers to develop the Four Large Lots.

Pursuant to the expected purchase and sale agreement, Folsom Real Estate South anticipates the sale of the Four Large Lots to the anticipated homebuilder closing upon the satisfaction of various conditions, including the buyer's prior payment of one or more non-refundable deposits and City approval of a small lot tentative map.

There are several conditions in the purchase and sale agreement that must be met before the Four Large Lots may close escrow to the buyer, and no assurance can be given that the sale of the Four Large Lots to the buyer will close at the time anticipated and described in this Official Statement, or at all. See "CERTAIN RISKS TO BONDHOLDERS - Failure to Develop," "- Current Challenges to the Homebuilding Industry" and"- Increasing Mortgage Interest Rates." Status - Folsom Real South. Folsom Real Estate South's Taxable Propedy within the Improvement Area, referred to herein as the Four Large Lots, is entitled to include up to 388 residential units at full development but is currently unimproved land that will require significant additional infrastructure and site development work to become fully developed. Additionally, as described more below, there are several remaining discretionary and non-discretionary approvals required 60 Page 217
11/12/2024 Item No.1.
before the Four Large Lots can be fully developed, including the approval of tentative and final small lot maps and satisfaction of City requirements relating to inclusionary housing and habitat mitigation. The actual number of lots ultimately included on the approved tentative and final small lot maps may change from the 388 lots current anticipated by Folsom Real Estate South. A deviation from the expected 388 lots would require City approval of a minor administrative modification and could delay the expected timing of development of the Four Large Lots.

The Four Large Lots have received all required environmental permits and approvals for the development of up to 388 residential units. However, additional habitat mitigation credits will be required for the planned development within the Four Large Lots.. Also, the Four Large Lots are subject to the City's inclusionary housing requirement. In conjunction with the process of obtaining tentative small lot map approval, Folsom Real Estate South anticipates confirming with the City the specific manner in which the requirements relating to additional habitat mitigation and inclusionary housing will be satisfied. Additionally, any changes to the development plans for the Four Large Lots by Folsom Real Estate South or any subsequent owner may require additional governmental review and approval. See "PROPOSED PROPERTY DEVELOPMENT - Folsom Real Estate South Development - Backbone and Offsite Infrastructure and Subdivision Improvements" herein for additional information relating to the required infrastructure and site development work for the Four Large Lots.

Backbone and Offsite Infrastructure and Subdivision Improvements. The Original Developer has completed all required backbone infrastructure, offsite improvements, and subdivision improvements serving the portion of the Improvement Area owned by Taylor Morrison and individual owners (totaling 260 lots). As of August 31,2024,the Original Developer had expended approximately $35 million for the various infrastructure and site development costs within that portion of the Improvement Area.

The remaining portion of the Taxable Property within the Improvement Area (totaling an expected 388 lots) will require significant additional infrastructure and site development work to become fully developed. This work includes, but is not limited to, mass grading (including implementation of an asbestos dust control plan), utilities and roadway improvements, and subdivision improvements. Pursuant to the expected purchase and sale agreement, Folsom Real Estate South anticipates selling the Four Large Lots in an "as-is" condition, and the buyer of that property would be required to complete the necessary infrastructure and site development. As of September 2024, Folsom Real Estate South estimated the required infrastructure and site development costs of the Four Large Lots to be approximately $60 million.
[The Original Developer undertook an asbestos dust control plan with respect to the grading of the 260lots owned by Taylor Morrison and individual homeowners. Folsom Real Estate South expects that the buyer and developer of the Four Large Lots will need to implement a similar asbestos dust control plan for the grading of that property.l
The Original Developer, an affiliate of Westland, completed the infrastructure and subdivision improvements relating to the 260 lots owned by Taylor Morrison and individual owners. The Original Developer anticipates seeking reimbursement from the proceeds of the sale of the Local Obligations for these completed Facilities, which generally include improvements relating to the undergrounding of utilities designed to meet the needs of development within the District. Specifically, to the extent there are available proceeds, the Original Developer anticipates these Facilities including: (i) various internal subdivision streets and related underground utilities, and (ii) roadway improvements relating to East Bidwell Street, Savannah Parkway, and Mangini Parkway. The Facilities for which the Original Developer anticipates seeking reimbursement from the proceeds of the sale of the Local Obligations have all been completed and accepted by the City.

11/12/2024 Item No.1.

CERTAIN RISKS TO BONDHOLDERS
This section provides a general overview of certain risk factors which should be considered, in addition to the other matters set forth in this Official Statement, in evaluating an investment in the Bonds.

This section is not meant to be a comprehensive or definitive discussion of the risks associated with an investment in the Bonds, and the order in which this information is presented does not necessarily reflect the relative importance of various risks. Potential investors in the Bonds are advised to consider the following factors, among others, and to review this entire Official Statement to obtain information essential to the making of an informed investment decision. Any one or more of the risk factors discussed below, among others, could lead to a decrease in the market value and/or in the marketability of the Bonds. There can be no assurance that other risk factors not discussed herein will not become material in the future.

Levy of the Special Tax
The principal source of payment of debt service on the Local Obligations, from which funds for the payment of the Bonds are derived, is the proceeds of the annual levy and collection of the Special Tax against property in the Improvement Area. The annual levy of the Special Tax is subject to the Maximum Facilities Special Tax rates authorized within the Improvement Area. The levies cannot be made at higher rates even if the failure to do so means that the estimated proceeds of the levy and collection of the Spicial Tax, together with other available moneys, will not be sufficient to pay debt service on the Local Obligations. Other funds which might be available include funds derived from the payment of delinquent Special Tax and funds derived from the tax sale or foreclosure and sale of related Taxable Property on which levies of the Special Tax are delinquent.

The levy of the Special Tax will rarely, if ever, result in a uniform relationship between the value of particular Taxable Property and the amount of the levy of the Special Tax against such parcels. Thus, there will rarely, if ever, be a uniform relationship between the value of such parcels and the proportionate share of debt service on the Local Obligations, and certainly not a direct relationship.

The Special Tax levied in any particular tax year on a Taxable Property is based upon the revenue needs and application of the Rate and Method. Application of the Rate and Method will, in turn, be dependent upon certain development factors with respect to each parcel of Taxable Property by comparison with similar development factors with respect to the other Taxable Property in the Improvement Area. Thus, in addition to annual variations of the revenue needs from the Special Tax, the foliowing are some of the factors which might cause the levy of the Special Tax on any particular Taxable Property to vary from the Special Tax that might otherwise be expected:
. Reduction in the amount of Taxable Property for such reasons as acquisition of Taxable Property by the federal government or an agency thereof, asserting immunity (however, see "Exempt Properties" below) from taxation, thereby resulting in an increased tax burden on the remaining Taxable Propefty.
o Failure of the related owners of Taxable Properly to pay the Special Tax and delays in the collection of or inability to collect the Special Tax by tax sale or foreclosure and sale of the delinquent parcels, thereby resulting in an increased tax burden on the remaining parcels, subject to the related Maximum Facilities Special Tax. 62 Page 219
11/12/2024 Item No.1.

Collection of Special Tax
In order for the Dishict to pay debt service on the Local Obligations, from which funds for the payment of the Bonds are derived, it is necessary that the Special Tax levied against land in the l-p.ou"ment Area be paid in a timely manner. The District has established the Local Obligations Reierve Account under the Local Obligations Indenture in the amount of the Required Bond Reserve to pay debt service on the Local Obligations, in the event that a portion of the Special Taxes for the Local Obligations are not paid on time.

The Local Obligations Indenture provides that the Special Tax is to be collected in the same manner as ordinary ad valorem property taxes are collected and, except as provided in the special covenant for foreclosure described below and in the Mello-Roos Act, is to be subject to the same penalties and the same procedure, sale and lien priority in case of delinquency as is provided fot ad valorem property taxes. Pursuant to these procedures, iftaxes are unpaid for a period of five years or more, the property is deeded to the State and then is subject to sale by the County.

Pursuant to the Mello-Roos Act, in the event of any delinquency in the payment of the Special Tax, the District may order the institution of a Superior Court action to foreclose the lien therefor within specified time limits. In such an action, the real property subject to the unpaid amount may be sold at luAiciat foreclosure sale. Such judicial foreclosure action is not mandatory. However, the District has -covenanted
that it will conduct foreclosure proceedings against delinquent installment payments when there is a greater than 5Yo deficiency in the amount of the Special Tax levied or any single property owner is then deiinquent on four or more installments of the Special Tax, except where the District has received 100% of such installment from the County pursuant to the Teeter Plan. See "SECURITY AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR TTIE BONDS-COVENANt fOT FOTECIOSUTE.'' In the event that sales or foreclosures of properly are necessary, there could be a delay in payments to Owners of the Bonds pending such sales or the prosecution of foreclosure proceedings and receipt by the District of the proceeds of sale if the Local Obligations Reserve Account with respect to the Local Obligations is depleted.

The District may be unable to make full or timely payment of debt service on the Local Obligations if property owners in the Improvement Area fail to pay installments of the Special Tax when due,lf the Lobal Obligations Reserve Account is depleted, or if the District is unable to sell related foreclosed parcels for amounts sufficient to cover the delinquent installments of the Special Tax.

Concentration of Ownership
Currently, a large portion of the Taxable Property in the Improvement Area is owned by Taylor Morrison and Folsom Real Estate South, and consequently, a large portion of the Special Tax within the Improvement Area will be paid by Taylor Morrison (and Folsom Real Estate South to the extent that the Special Tax is levied on Undeveloped Property or Folsom Real Estate South retains ownership of its Taxable Property as it becomes developed) until the homes are completed and sold. See "PROPOSED PROPERTY DEVELOPMENT-Property Ownership."
Taylor Morrison is in the process of building and selling completed homes to individual homeowners, and Folsom Real Estate South is actively negotiating with a buyer for its Taxable Property within the Improvement Area. No assurance can be given that the property sales will close when anticipated. Sie "PROPOSED PROPERTY DEVELOPMENT-Property Ownership." Generally, the risk of delinquency or nonpayment of Special Taxes at levels which do not permit the timely payment of principal of and interest on the Bonds is inversely correlated to the diversity of ownership of Taxable 63 Page 220
11/12/2024 Item No.1.

Property within the Improvement Area. The fact that a substantial portion of the property providing the ultimate security for tlie payment of Local Obligations is controlled by only a few owners means that timely puy-.nt of the respective Special Tax and, therefore, the Bonds, will depend initially upon the willingneis and ability of these few owners to pay the Special Tax when due. The only assets of Taylor Monison and Folsom Real Estate South that constitute security for the Local Obligations are their real property holdings located within the Improvement Area.

There can be no assurance that the remaining partially developed property within the Improvement Area will be fully developed and that property ownership will be further diversified as a result. see ,,GERTAIN RISKS TO BONDHOLDERS-Failure to Develop." Payment of the Speciat Tax is Not a Personal Obligation of a Property Owner A PROPERTY OWNER IS NOT PERSONALLY OBLIGATED TO PAY THE SPECIAL TAX.

RATHER, THE SPECIAL TAXES ARE OBLIGATIONS ONLY AGAINST THE PROPERTY. IF THE

VALUE OF THE PARCELS OF PROPERTY IS NOT SUFFICIENT, TAKING INTO ACCOUNT

OTFIER OBLIGATIONS ALSO PAYABLE THEREBY, TO FULLY DISCHARGE TTIE SPECIAL TAX, TI{E DISTRICT WILL HAVE NO RECOURSE AGAINST THE PROPERTY OWNER.

Potential Early Redemption of Bonds from Prepaid Special Taxes Property owners within the Improvement Area are permitted to prepay their Special Taxes at any time. Such prepayments could also be made from the proceeds of bonds issued by or on behalf of an overlapping ipecial assessment district or community facilities district. Such payments will result in a reOempiion oi the Bonds on the Interest Payment Date for which timely notice may be given under the Trust Agreement following the receipt of the prepayment. The resulting redemption of Bonds purchased at a price greater than par could reduce the otherwise expected yield on such Bonds' See "THE BONDS-Redemption Provisions-Extraordinary Redemptionfrom Prepayment of Special Taxes." Special Tax Delinquencies
The Special Taxes are billed to the properties within the Improvement Area on the ad valorem property tax bills sent to owners of such properties. Such Special Tax installments are due and payable, andbear the same penalties and interest for non-payment, as do ad valorem property tax installments. In each year the County includes the Improvement Area in the Teeter Plan, the County will be obligated to pay the District 100% of the amount of the Special Taxes actually levied in the Improvement Area, iegardless of any delinquencies. However, the County is required to terminate the Teeter Plan if two- thirds of the participants so petition the Board of Supervisors and may discontinue the Teeter Plan as to the Improvement Area if the delinquency rate in the Improvement Area exceeds 3o%. Moreover, the County determines annually whether to include a particular district in the Teeter Plan. $gs '(-fes1e1 Plan Termination" and "SECURITY AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS-The Teeter Plan." Significant delinquencies in the payment of annual Special Tax installments, or delays in the prosecution of foreclosure proceedings to collect such Special Taxes, could result in a default in the payment of the debt service on the Bonds. $ss ('-B,4nkruptcy" and "-FDIC/Federal Government inie.ests in Properties" below, for a discussion of the limitations on the District's ability to foreclose on the lien of the Special Taxes in certain circumstances and the policy of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation regarding the payment of special taxes.

11/12/2024 Item No.1.

Teeter Plan Termination
The County has implemented its Teeter Plan as an alternate procedure for the distribution of certain property tax and assessment levies on the secured roll. The County determines annually which special taxes and assessment levies to include in the Teeter Plan. Pursuant to its Teeter Plan, once the County determines to include special taxes and assessment levies in the Teeter Plan, the County provides the local agency and taxing area with full tax and assessment levies instead of actual tax and assessment collections. In return, the County is entitled to retain all delinquent tax and assessment payments, penalties and interest. Thus, the County's Teeter Plan may help protect Owners from the risk of delinquencies in the payment of Special Taxes. However, the County is entitled, and under certain circumstances could be required, to terminate its Teeter Plan with respect to all or part of the local agencies and taxing areas covered thereby. In addition, the County may decide not to include certain special taxes and assessment levies, including the Improvement Area, in the Teeter Plan in any fiscal year. Any termination of the Teeter Plan with respect to the Improvement Area would eliminate such protection from delinquent Special Taxes. See "SECURITY AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS-The Teeter Plan."
Land Values
If a property owner defaults in the payment of the Special Tax, from which funds for the payment of the Bonds are derived, the District's only remedy is to foreclose on the delinquent properly in an attempt to obtain funds with which to pay the delinquent Special Tax. The value of taxable property in the Improvement Area is therefore an important consideration in evaluating the security for the Bonds.

Land values could be adversely affected by economic factors beyond the District's control, such as relocation of employers out of the area, stricter land use regulations, the absence of water, or destruction of property caused by, among other eventualities, earthquake, flood or other natural disaster, or by environmental pollution or contamination.

Appraisal Risks
The Appraiser has estimated the market value of the property in the Improvement Area on the basis of certain assumptions which the Appraiser believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. See the Appraisal included in APPENDIX G hereto. However, certain of the assumptions made by the Appraiser may prove to be untrue.

Although the District believes that the Appraiser's methodology and assumptions are reasonable under the circumstances, the Appraiser's aggregate value conclusions are expressions of professional opinion only. No assurance can be given that the aggregate values of property in the Improvement Area aie equal to or greater than the Appraiser's estimated values, nor can any assurance be given that such aggregate values will not decline during the period of time the Bonds are Outstanding. The values of the property in the Improvement Area can be adversely affected by a variety of factors, including, but not limited to, the occuffence of one or more of the special risk events discussed herein. A decline in the value of a parcel in the Improvement Area could lower the ability or willingness of the owner of such parcel to pay Special Taxes when due and would decrease the amount recoverable at a foreclosure sale of such parcel.

See "THE IMPROVEMENT AREA-Property Values" for a further discussion of estimated property values in the Improvement Area.
65 Page 222
11/12/2024 Item No.1.

Exempt Properties
Certain properties within the Improvement Area are or may become exempt from the Special Tax in accordance with the Rate and Method. In addition, the Mello-Roos Act provides that properties or entities of the state, federal or local government are exempt from Special Ta4 provided, however, that property acquired by a public entity through a negotiated transaction or by gift or devise, which is not Lttt"r*ir" exempt from the Special Tax, will continue to be subject to the Special Tax. In addition, the Mello-Roos Aci provides that if property subject to Special Tax is acquired by a public entity through eminent domain proceedings, the obligation to pay Special Tax with respect to that property is to be treated as if it were a special assessment. Further, properties receiving a welfare exemption under subsection (g) of Section 214 of the California Revenue and Taxation Code are exempt from the Special Tax unless debt is outstanding and the property was subject to the Special Tax prior to receiving the exemption. Currently, the Improvement Area includes approximately 5.8 acres that are expected to be developed into a 152-unit affordable housing site that will receive a welfare exemption and be exempt from the Special Tax. The constitutionality and operation of these provisions of the Mello-Roos Act have not been tested.

In particular, insofar as the Mello-Roos Act requires payment of a special tax by a federal entity acquiring property within the community facilities district, it may be unconstitutional. If for any reason property within ihe Improvement Area becomes exempt from taxation, then, subject to the Rate and M"ittod, including the fimitation on the maximum special tax rates set out in the Rate and Method, the special tax will bi reallocated to the remaining taxable properties within the Improvement Area' This would result in the owners of such property paying a greater amount of the Special Tax and could have an adverse impact upon the timely payment of the Special Tax. Moreover, if a substantial portion of land within the improvement Area becomes exempt from the Special Tax because of public ownership, or otherwise, the maximum rate that could be levied upon the remaining property might not be sufficient to pay principal of and interest on the related Local Obligations and could adversely affect the ability of the District to pay principal of and interest on the Bonds when due.

Maximum Special Tax
Within the limits of the Special Tax, the District may adjust the Special Tax on all property in the Improvement Area to provide an amount required to pay interest on, principal of, Minimum Sinking Fund Payments for and redemption premiums, if any, on the Local Obligations, and the amount, if any, ,r"""rrury to cure delinquencies and replenish the Local Obligations Reserve Account to an amount equal to the Required Bond Reserve, and to pay all current Expenses.

Although the Maximum Facilities Special Tax is designed to provide Special Tax revenues on an annual basis, there is no assurance that the Maximum Facilities Special Tax on the property in the Improvement Area will be sufficient to pay the amounts required to be paid by the Local Obligations Indenture at all times, from which funds for the payment of the Bonds are derived. See "SECURITY AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR TI{E BONDS-special Tax Authorization" and APPENDIX A- ..RATE AND METHOD.''
Under the Rate and Method, the Facilities Special Tax levied in any fiscal year against any Assessor's Parcel (as defined in the Rate and Method) of Developed Property classified as Residential Property may not be increased as a consequence of delinquency or default by the owner or owners of any other parcel or parcels within the Improvement Area by more than l\Yo above the amount that would have Leen levied against such Assessor's Parcel in that fiscal year had there never been any such delinquencies or defaults. Pursuant to the Rate and Method, property is considered "Residential Propetrty" once a building permit could be issued for the purposes of constructing one or more Residential 66 Page 223
11/12/2024 Item No.1.

Units, including either single family detached homes or multi-family attached properties, such as apartments, and property is considered "Developed Property" if a building permit for new construction was issued prior to June 30 of the previous fiscal year.

No Acceleration Provision
The Local Obligations Indenture does not contain a provision allowing for the acceleration of the Bonds in the event of a payment default or other default under the terms thereof.

Loss of Tax Exemption
As discussed under "TAX MATTERS," interest on the Bonds could become includable in gross income for purposes of federal income taxation retroactive to the date of issuance, as a result of acts or omissions of the Dishict subsequent to the issuance of the Bonds in violation of the District's covenants with respect to the Bonds. Should interest become includable in gross income, the Bonds are not subject to redemption by reason thereof and will remain outstanding until maturity or unless earlier redeemed pursuant to optional or mandatory redemption.

Parity Taxes and Special Assessments
The ability or willingness of a property owner in the Improvement Area to pay the Special Tax, from which funds for the payment of the Bonds are derived, could be affected by the existence of other taxes and assessments imposed upon the property either currently existing or imposed in the future. The assessments and any penalties thereon constitute a lien against the lots and parcels of land on which they have been levied until they are paid. Such lien is on parity with all special taxes and special assessments levied by other agencies and is co-equal to and independent of the lien for general property taxes and other special asseisments regardless of when they are imposed upon the same property. The Special Tax has priority over all existing and future private liens imposed on the properfy. In addition, other public agencies whose boundaries overlap those of the Improvement Area could, with or in some circumstances without the consent of the owners of the land in the Improvement Area, impose additional taxes or assessment liens on the properly in the Improvement Area in order to finance public improvements to be located inside or outside of the Improvement Area'
67 Page 224
11/12/2024 Item No.1.

Although the District has covenanted not to impose additional special taxes or assessments on property within the Improvement Area except in accordance with the Local Obligations Indenture, the Authority and the District have no control over the ability of other entities and districts to issue indebtedness secured by special taxes or assessments payable from all or a portion ofthe property in the Improvement Area. The imposition of additional liens on panty with the assessments could reduce the ability or willingness of the owners of parcels in the Improvement Area to pay the Special Tax and increases the possibility that foreclosure proceeds will not be adequate to pay delinquent Special Taxes or the principal of and interest on the Local Obligations when due. As described under "FOLSOM PLAN AREA-Public Facilities Financing Plan," and "THE IMPROVEMENT AREA---Overlapping Debt" the City plans to issue additional obligations secured by special taxes from time to time to finance backbone infraitructure and public improvements within the Folsom Plan Area and the boundaries of the Improvement Area. For example, CFD 18 authorized the issuance of up to $200,000,000 in obligations.

The special taxes securing such additional obligations would be payable on parity with the Special Taxes.

In addition, property owners may choose to participate in a residential PACE program (a mechanism for financing energy efficiency and renewable energy improvements on private property), consenting to assessments on their parcels that would be on a parity with the Special Taxes.

Future Private Indebtedness
At the present time, the Improvement Area includes properties that are undergoing development or are developed. In order to develop any improvements on that undeveloped land, the property owners will need to construct private improvements, the cost of which may increase the private debt for which the land in the Improvement Area or other land or collateral owned by the property owners is security over that contemplated by the Local Obligations, and such increased debt could reduce the ability or desire of the property owners to pay the Special Tax secured by the land in the Improvement Area. It should be noted however, that the lien of any private financing secured by the land within the Improvement Area would be subordinate to the lien of the Special Tax.

Disclosures to Future Purchasers
The District has recorded notice of the Special Tax Lien in the Office of the County Recorder of the County of Sacramento. While title companies normally refer to such notices in title reports, there can be no guarantee that such reference will be made or, if made, that a prospective purchaser or lender will consider such Special Tax obligation in the purchase of a parcel of land, a home or a commercial or industrial facility in the Improvement Area or the lending of money thereon. The Mello-Roos Act requires the subdivider (or its agent or representative) ofa subdivision to notifu a prospective purchaser or long-term lessor of any lot, parcel, or unit subject to a Mello-Roos special tax of the existence and maximum amount of such special tax using a statutorily prescribed form. State Civil Code Section I102.6b requires that in the case of transfers other than those covered by the above requirement, the seller must at least make a good faith effort to notifu the prospective purchaser of the special tax lien in a format prescribed by statute. Failure by an owner of the property to comply with the above requirements, or failure by a purchaser or lessor to consider or understand the nafure and existence of the Special Tax, could adversely affect the willingness and ability of the purchaser or lessor to pay the Special Tax, from which funds for the payment of the Bonds are derived, when due.

Bankruptcy
The payment of the Special Tax and the ability of the District to foreclose the lien of a delinquent unpaid tax, as discussed in "SECURITY AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS," may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or other laws generally affecting creditors' rights or by the laws of the State relating tojudicial foreclosure. In addition, the prosecution ofa foreclosure action could be delayed 68 Page 225
11/12/2024 Item No.1.
due to crowded local court calendars or delays in the legal process. The various legal opinions to be delivered concurrently with the delivery of the Bonds (including Bond Counsel's approving legal opinion) will be qualified as to the enforceability of the various legal instruments by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorginization, moratorium and other similar laws affecting creditors' rights, by the application of equitable principles and by the exercise ofjudicial discretion in appropriate cases.

Although bankruptcy proceedings would not cause the lien of the Special Tax to become extinguished, bankruptcy of a property owner could result in a delay in prosecuting superior court foreJosure proceedings. fn" federal bankruptcy laws provide for an automatic stay of foreclosure and sale oftax rul" pro"""dings, thereby delaying such proceedings perhaps for an extended period' Any such delays would increase the likelihood of a delay or default in payment of the principal of and interest on the bonds and the possibility of delinquent tax installments not being paid in full. To the extent that property in the Improvement Area continues to be owned by a limited number of property owners, the "hu-n""i
are increased that the Local obligations Reserve Fund could be fully depleted during any such delay in obtaining payment of delinquent Special Taxes. As a result, sufficient moneys would not be avaiiable in the Local Obligations Reserve Account to make up shortfalls resulting from delinquent payments of the Special Tax and thereby to pay principal of and interest on the Local Obligations on a iimely basis. The payment of the Special Tax and the ability of the District to foreclose the lien of a delinquent unpaid tax could be delayed by bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency' moratorium or other similar laws affecting rights of creditors generally or by the laws of the State relating to judicial foreclosure. Further,ihould remedies be exercised underthe federal bankruptcy laws againstparcels in the Improvement Area, payment of the Special Tax may be subordinated to bankruptcy law priorities.

Thus, cenain claims may have priority over the Special Tax in a bankruptcy proceeding even though they would not outside of a bankruptcy proceeding.

FDIC/Federal Government Interests in Properties
The ability of the District to foreclose the lien of delinquent unpaid Special Tax installments may be limited with regard to properties in which the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the "FDIC"), the Drug Enfor""."nt Agency, the Internal Revenue Service, or other federal agency has or obtains an interest.

Under the Supremacy Clause of the United States Constitution, unless Congress has otherwise provided, if a federai governmental entity owns a parcel that is subject to Special Taxes within the i*prou.-"nt Area but does not pay taxes and assessments levied on the parcel (including Special Taxes), the applicable state and local governments cannot foreclose on the parcel to collect the delinquent taxes and aJsessments. Moreover, unless Congress has otherwise provided, if the federal government has a mortgage interest in the parcel and the District wishes to foreclose on the parcel as a result of delinquent SpeciaiTa*es, the property cannot be sold at a foreclosure sale unless it can be sold for an amount sufficient to pay aeiinquent taxes and assessments on parity with the Special Taxes and preserve the federal government's mortgage interest. In Rust v. Johnson,597 F.2d 174 (1979), the United States Court of AppJal, Ninth Circuit held that the Federal National Mortgage Association ("FNMA") is a federal instrumeniality for purposes of this doctrine, and not a private entity, and that, as a result, an exercise of state power over a mortgage interest held by FNMA constitutes an exercise of state power over property of the United States.

Neither the Authority nor the District have undertaken to determine whether any federal governmental entity currently has, or is likely to acquire, any interest (including a mortgage interest) in any of the parcels subject to the Special Taxes within the Improvement Area, and therefore expresses no l,'iew concerning the likelihood that the risks described above will materialize while the Bonds are outstanding.
69 Page 226
11/12/2024 Item No.1.

In the event that any financial institution making any loan which is secured by real property within the Improvement Area is taken over by the FDIC, and prior thereto or thereafter the loan or loans go into default, then the ability of the Authority to collect interest and penalties specified by State law and to foreclose the lien of delinquent unpaid Special Taxes may be limited.

The FDIC's policy statement regarding the payment of state and local real properly taxes (the "Policy Statement") provides that property owned by the FDIC is subject to state and local real properly taxes only if those taxes are assessed according to the property's value, and that the FDIC is immune from real property taxes assessed on any basis other than property value. According to the Policy Statement, the FDIC will pay its property tax obligations when they become due and payable and will pay claims for delinquent property taxes as promptly as is consistent with sound business practice and the orderly administration of the institution's affairs, unless abandonment of the FDIC's interest in the property is appropriate. The FDIC will pay claims for interest on delinquent property taxes owed at the rate provided under state law, to the extent the interest payment obligation is secured by a valid lien. The FDIC will not pay any amounts in the nature of fines or penalties and will not pay nor recognize liens for such amounts.

If any property taxes (including interest) on FDIC-owned propefi are secured by a valid lien (in effect before the property became owned by the FDIC), the FDIC will pay those claims. The Policy Statement further provides that no property of the FDIC is subject to levy, attachment, garnishment, foreclosure or sale without the FDIC's consent. In addition, the FDIC will not permit a lien or security interest held by the FDIC to be eliminated by foreclosure without the FDIC's consent' The Policy Statement states that the FDIC generally will not pay non-ad valorem taxes, including special assessments, on propefty in which it has a fee interest unless the amount of tax is fixed at the time that the FDIC acquires its fee interest in the property, nor will it recognize the validity of any lien to the extent it purports to secure the payment of any such amounts. Special taxes imposed under the Mello- Roos Act and a special tax formula which determines the special tax due each year are specifically identified in the Policy Statement as being imposed each year and therefore covered by the FDIC's federal immunity. The Ninth Circuit has issued a ruling on August 28,2001, in which it determined that the FDIC, as a federal agency, is exempt from Mello-Roos special taxes. According to information available from the Sacramento County assessment roll, the FDIC does not currently own any of the property in the Improvement Area.

The Authority and the District are unable to predict what effect the application of the Policy Statement would have in the event of a delinquency in the payment of Special Taxes on a parcel within the Improvement Area in which the FDIC has or obtains an interest, although prohibiting the lien of the FDIC to be foreclosed out at a judicial foreclosure sale could reduce or eliminate the number of persons willing to purchase a parcel at foreclosure sale. Such an outcome could cause a draw on the reserve account for the Local Obligations and perhaps, ultimately, if enough property were to become owned by the FDIC, a default in payment on the Local Obligations and the Bonds.

Zoning and Land Use I)ecisions
The Special Taxes, from which funds for the payment of the Bonds are derived, are to be levied annually based upon the land use categories in effect for the property. Decisions made by the City Council, which has control over zoning and land use decisions for property in the City, will affect the prospective use of the property and, therefore, the tax base for the Special Tax. The Rate and Method does not permit land use changes to reduce the tax base to below the Special Tax Requirement. 70 Page 227

Ballot Initiatives and Measures
From time to time constitutional initiatives or other initiative measures may be adopted by State voters or voters of the City, such as Measure W adopted by City residents in November 2004 described herein. The adoption of any such initiative in the future might place limitations on the ability of the State or any political subdivisions thereof, including the Authority or the City, to increase revenues or to increase appropriations, the ability of the landowners to complete their developments, or the ability of the District to collect the Special Tax.

Shapiro v. San Diego
On August 1,2014, the California Court of Appeal, Fourth Appellate District, Division One, issued its opinion in Shapiro v. San Diego City Council, ll7 Cal. Rptr. 2d 631, 96 Cal. App' 4th 904 (2002). The case involved a Convention Center Facilities District (the "CCFD") established by the City of San Diego, much like a community facilities district established under the provisions of the Mello- Roos Act. The CCFD is comprised of all of the real property in all of the City of San Diego. However, the special tax to be levied within the CCFD was to be levied only on hotel properties.

At the election to authorize such special tax, the electorate was limited to owners of hotel properties and lessees of certain of such hotel properties. Thus, the election was a landowner election ii*it"O to owners and lessees of properties on which the special tax would be levied, and not a registered voter election. Such approach to determining who would constitute the qualified electors of the CCFD was based on Section 53326(c) of the Mello-Roos Act, which generally provides that, if a special tax will not be apportioned in any tax year on residential property, the legislative body may provide that the vote shall be by the landowners of the proposed district whose property would be subject to the special tax.

The Court held that the CCFD special tax election was invalid under the California Constitution because Article XIII A, Section 4 thereof and Article XIII C, Section 2 thereof require that the electors in such an election be the registered voters within the district.

In the case of the CCFD, at the time of the election there were many, many registered voters within the CCFD (viz., all of the registered voters in the City of San Diego). There were no registered voters within the Improvement Area at the time of the election to authorize the Special Tax' In City of San Diego, the Court expressly stated that it was not addressing the validity of landowner voting to impose special taxes pursuant to the Mello-Roos Act in situations where there are fewer than 12 registeied voters. Thus, by its terms, the Court's holding does not apply to the Special Tax election in the Improvement Area. Moreover, Section 53341 of the Mello-Roos Act provides that any "action or p.o"""dittg to attack, review, set aside, void or annul the levy of a special tax shall be commenced within 30 days after the special tax is approved by the voters." The Special Tax with respect to the Improvement Area was approved by the voters on March 28, 2023 . Based on Section 53341 of the Mello-Roos Act and its analysis of existing laws, regulations, rulings and court decisions, the District does not believe that a challenge to the Special Tax may now be brought.

Risks of Real Estate Secured Investments Generally
The owners of the Bonds will be subject to the risks generally incident to an investment secured by real estate, including, without limitation, (i) adverse changes in national and local market conditions, such as changes in the market value of real property in the vicinity of the Improvement Area, the supply of or demand for competitive properties in such area, and the market value of residential properly or buildings and/or sites in the event of sale or foreclosure; (ii) changes in real estate tax rates and other operating expenses, governmental rules (including, without limitation, zoning laws and laws relating to endangeied ipecies, and hazardous materials and seismic safety) and fiscal policies; (iii) increased 71 Page 228
11/12/2024 Item No.1.
construction costs, workforce shortages, supply chain disruptions or other similar factors affecting the development, financing or marketing capabilities of Taylor Morrison or any other additional homebuilder within the Improvement Area; (iv) natural disasters (including but not limited to severe weather, earthquakes, *ildfir"r, and floods) or other calamities, which may result in uninsured losses; (v) costs of r.-"diution and liabilities associated with unknown environmental conditions affecting properties; and (vi) increased delinquency or reduced demand due to high rate of inflation, rising interest rates, increased cost of insurance, and other economic trends that adversely affects consumers, whether cyclical or resulting from geopolitical events.

No assurance can be given that Taylor Morrison, Folsom Real Estate South, or any other current or future homeowners within the Improvement Area will pay the Special Tax in the future or that they will be able to pay such Special Tax on a timely basis. $es6(-Bsnkruptcy" above, for a discussion.of certain limitations on the District's ability to pursue judicial proceedings with respect to delinquent parcels. Further, many homes within the Improvement Area will have a higher-than-average price point as compared to other homes in the region, which may impact the absorption of the residential units within the Improvement Area.

Current Challenges to the Homebuilding Industry
The pace of homebuilding in the Improvement Area may be adversely affected by a variety of factors, including changes in economic conditions, interest rates, water shortages, and other similar factors, and recently including workforce shortages and supply chain disruptions. For example, obtaining garuge doors and windows have recently been challenging for home builders generally. Additionally, ro*" Cutifornia municipalities have experienced supply chain disruptions for the electrical transformers and water meters needed for new development, having been advised in some cases of up to al-year delay for new electrical transformer orders. The lots in the Improvement Area being developed by Taylor Morrison are fully energized. Neither Taylor Morrison or Folsom Real Estate South are currently aware of any anticipated supply chain disruptions for the development within the Improvement Area' Additi,onally, the City has taken steps to prevent a water meter supply chain disruption. The City has made arrangements with a supplier to have approximately 500 new water meters set aside for its future use. Also, City staff have obtained authorization from the City Council to purchase additional new water meters as needed for new development in the City so that such purchases can be made expeditiously and without the need for further City Council action. However, no assurance can be given that supply chain disruptions for the materials needed to complete development within the Improvement Area will not occur.

Increasing Mortgage Interest Rates and Banking Uncertainty Most of the expected purchasers of homes within the Improvement Area will finance their acquisitions with mortgage financing. As such, rising interest rates, decreased availability of mortgage financing or of certain mortgage programs, higher down payment requirements, or increased monthly mortgag- costs could have a negative impact on the estimated absorption rates of planned for-sale homes in thi I-p.ou"-.nt Area. Further, a combination of higher mortgage rates, delays in construction stemming from delays in the supply chain, homebuyers' inability to sell their existing homes and adverse changes in local, regional or national economic conditions, among other factors, could contribute to an increase in the rate of home order cancellations, which could similarly have a negative impact on the estimated absorption rates of for-sale homes in the Improvement Area. 72 Page 229
11/12/2024 Item No.1.

Failure to Develop
Land development operations are subject to comprehensive federal, State and local regulations.

Approval is required from various agencies in connection with the layout and design of developments, the ttatu." and extent of improvements, construction activity, land use, zoning, school and health requirements, as well as numerous other matters. It is possible that the approvals necessary to complete development of all taxable property within the Improvement Area are not obtained on a timely basis or that litigation could be filed regarding approvals. Failure to obtain any such agency approval or satisf, any such government requirement or any litigation concerning such agency approval or government requirement could adversely affect land development operations. In addition, current and future governmental restrictions, including, but not limited to, governmental policies restricting or controlling development within the Improvement Area, could be enacted, and future land use initiatives approved by the voiers in the City could add more restrictions and requirements on development within the Improvement Area, which restrictions may increase the cost to develop the Improvement Area. One such governmental restriction is the requirement to install rooftop photovoltaic solar systems for residential buildings under three stories constructed starting in2020. Costs associated with the installation of solar to the homebuilders may reduce the willingness of homebuilders to construct homes and increased costs of those homes may decrease the willingness of homeowners to buy such homes.

Moreover, there can be no assurance that the means and incentive to conduct land development operations within the Improvement Area will not be adversely affected by a deterioration of the real estate market or economic conditions generally, future local, State and federal governmental policies relating to real estate development, the income tax treatment of real property ownership, acts of war or terrorism, or other factors.

A portion of the Taxable Properly in the Improvement Area is presently being developed.

Undeveloped property is less valuable per acre than developed property, especially if there are no plans to develop such property or if there are severe restrictions on the development of such property, and therefore provides less security to the owners of the Bonds should it be necessary for the District to foreclose due to the nonpayment of the Special Taxes. Delays in any properly owner's ability to obtain discretionary approvals (including any delays caused by litigation) would in turn delay the construction of improvements and development of the Taxable Property within the Improvement Area. Furthermore, an inability to develop the land within the Improvement Area as currently proposed would result in slower rates of diversification of propefty ownership within the Improvement Area. Concentration of ownership increases the risk ofa failure to collect sufficient Special Taxes to pay debt service on the Bonds, all other things being equal. The timely payment of Special Taxes levied on undeveloped property depends primarily upon the ability and willingness of owners of such property to pay such taxes when due'-Certain infrastructure improvements are required before development in the Improvement Area is complete. Also, the Phase 2 Water Facilities described under the heading "PROPOSED PROPERTY DEVELOPMENT-Development Entitlements-Water Supply" are expected to be needed before the full development of the Folsom Plan Area. A slowdown in or cessation of the development of land within the Improvement Area could reduce the ability and willingness of such owners to make Special Tax payments, and could greatly reduce the value of such property in the event it has to be foreclosed upon to ioilect delinquent special taxes. See 6'-Bankruptcy" above for a discussion of certain limitations on the ability of the District to pursue judicial foreclosure proceedings with respect to taxpayers with delinquent Special Taxes.

No Independent Review of valuation or viability of completed Projects Property within the Improvement Area is comprised of separate and distinct projects as described above. Payment of Special Taxes are inherently dependent upon the development within the 73 Page 230
11/12/2024 Item No.1.

Improvement Area, and, with respect to residential properties, the ability of the buyers of completed homes to pay. The Authority, the District, and the Underwriter have not reviewed any business plan for continued ownership, development and/or operation of the property within the Improvement Area' Similarly, the Authority, the District and the Underwriter have not conducted any independent evaluation of the existing or projected economic viability or profitability of any of the plans for development, including reviiw and/or evaluation of financial statements of any owner or developer of any parcel subject to the Special Tax. The information contained herein regarding the proposed development and the o*n"rr of the parcels within the Improvement Area has been supplied by such owners and the Underwriter has not independently verified, makes no representation regarding, and does not accept any responsibility for the accuracy or completeness of such information.

In the event an owner or developer experiences financial difficulties, including difficulties resulting from construction or operation of the development within the Improvement Area, the value of the affected parcel within the Improvement Area may decline and/or such owner or developer may elect to refrain from payment of future Special Taxes for such parcel. See also "-Failure to Develop." Potential Impact of Global Health Crises or Concerns
The COVID-l9 global pandemic had a severe and continuing effect on the nation and the State, with ongoing concerns relating to health and safety, preventive protocols, fiscal and economic issues, business opeiations, and global trade. Although at present there are no restrictions on operations within the State relating to the COVID-19 pandemic, the response to COVID-l9 had a profound effect on housing construction and the housing market. Pandemic-related shutdowns severely disrupted global supplyihains, resulting in difficulty for homebuilders to access necessary materials for home completion, inciuding wood, windows, electrical transformers, water meters, and appliances. Supply chains have substantially recovered, but many goods still experience a backlog, which has resulted in, or may in the future result in, development delays within the District, and which has further resulted in increased construction costs. Lingering supply chain issues, labor shortages, increased interest rates, and an uncertain economy can increase costs to individual homeowners and therefore slow demand. Further, the pandemic saw changing trends in where people choose to live and the types of homes people choose to iive in, which may impact demand for the types of homes being constructed by Taylor Morrison and any other homebuilder within the Improvement Area. The impacts of the COVID-l9 pandemic continue to have a lasting effect, and the Authority, the City and the District cannot predict the effect of any potential future outbreak of COVID-19 or any other infectious disease.

Cybersecurity
The City, like other public and private entities, relies on a large and complex technology environment to conduct its operations, and consequently faces the threat of cybersecurity incidents. The City and its departments could face cybersecurity threats including, but not limited to, hacking, viruses, -ui*ur" and other attacks on computers and other sensitive digital networks and systems. Such cybersecurity incidents could result from unintentional events, or from deliberate attacks by unauthorized entities or individuals attempting to gain access to the City's information technology systems to misappropriate assets and/or information or to cause operational disruption and damage. The City maintains insurance to cover cybersecurity incidents, has cybersecurity risk management policies and procedures and periodically trains its employees on cybersecurity risks. The City, in addition to ionducting regular internal reviews, also hires external auditors to perform quarterly and annual reviews of its cybersecurity program.

While the City conducts periodic tests and reviews of its networks, no assurances can be given that such security and operational control measures will be successful in guarding against all cyber threats 74 Page 231
11/12/2024 Item No.1.
and attacks. New technical cyber vulnerabilities are frequently discovered in the United States. In addition, cyber attacks have become more sophisticated and increasingly are capable of impacting municipal control systems and components. The techniques used to obtain unauthorized access to, or to disabloor degrade, electronic networks, computers, systems and solutions are rapidly evolving and have become increasingly complex and sophisticated. The results of any attack on the computer and information technology systems could have a material adverse impact on the operations of the City and damage the digital networks and systems. The City cannot predict the outcome of any such attack, nor the effect on the operations and finances of the City.

Geologic, Topographic and Climatic Conditions
The value of the property in the Improvement Area in the future can be adversely affected by a variety of additional factors, particularly those which may affect infrastructure and other public improvements and private improvements on property and the continued habitability and enjoyment of suih private improvements. Such additional factors include, without limitation, geologic conditions such as earthquakes, topographic conditions such as earth movements, landslides and floods and climatic conditions such as droughts and wildfire'
The occurrence of seismic activity in the Improvement Area could result in substantial damage to properties in the Improvement Area which, in turn, could substantially reduce the value of such properties and could affect the ability or willingness of the property owners to pay the Special Tax on their propefty.

The Improvement Area is not located in any existing special study zone delineated by the Chief of the Division of Mines and Geology of the State of California as an area of known active faults and is not otherwise known to be located within an area of any significant seismic activity. However, it may be expected that one or more of such conditions may occur and may result in damage to improvements of varying seriousness, that the damage may entail significant repair or replacement costs and that repair or repiacernent may never occur either because of the cost or because repair or replacement will not facilitate traUitaUitity or other use, or because other considerations preclude such repair or replacement. Under any of these circumstances, the value of the property may decline' In recent years, wildfires have caused extensive damage throughout the State. In some instances, entire neighborhoods have been destroyed. Several ofthe fires that occurred in recent years damaged or destroyed property in areas that were not previously considered to be at risk from such events. Some commentators believe that climate change will lead to even more frequent and more damaging wildfires in the future. In general, property damage due to wildfire could result in a significant decrease in the market value of property in the Improvement Area and in the ability or willingness of property owners to pay Special Taxes.

The Improvement Area is located within an area identified as a moderate fire hazatd severity zone. More information regarding Fire Hazard Severity Zones can be found at the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection website at https://frap.fire.ca.gov, though such website is not incorporated herein by reference. The development within the Improvement Area is subject to mitigation measures set forth in a fuel modification plan approved by the City Fire Department. The mitigation measures include, among others, limitations on the type of vegetation that may be planted within fuel modification zones established in open space areas along certain portions of the perimeter of the Improvement Area, minimum setback of structures and irrigation requirements of the fuel modification zones. Maintenance of such zones is expected to initially be the responsibility of the property owners but upon build-out of the Improvement Area and dedication of the open space to the City will be maintained by the City from funds provided through CFD 18. Homeowner's insurance is expected to be available to property owners within ih" I1npro1ement Area, and the coverage provided by such insurance typically insures against fire 75 Page 232
11/12/2024 Item No.1.
damage, although there is no assurance that homeowners within the Improvement Area will purchase or maintain such insurance.

In the event of a wildfire, flood or other natural disaster, there may be significant damage to both property and infrastructure in the Improvement Area. As a result, a substantial portion of the properly o*tr".r may be unable or unwilling to pay the Special Taxes when due. In addition, the value of land in the Improvement Area could be diminished in the aftermath of such a natural disaster, reducing the resulting proceeds of foreclosure sales in the event of delinquencies in the payment of the Special Taxes.

Folsom Dam, located on the American River within the jurisdictional boundaries of the City, was built in 1955 by the United States Army Corps of Engineers and is owned by the United States Bureau of Reclamation. An auxiliary spillway to enable the dam to more easily release water as it nears capacity was completed by the Army Corps of Engineers in October 2017. The City, together with the County and other local agencies, have established a hazard mitigation plan in the event of a dam failure. Geologic, topographic and climatic conditions, if severe, could result in damage to the dam which could further cause damage to the surrounding region and may limit water supply for the City and the Improvement Area.

Endangered Species
During recent years, there has been an increase in activity at the State of California and federal level related to the possible listing of certain plant and animal species found in California as endangered species. An increase in the number of endangered species is expected to curtail development in a number of areas. The property within the Improvement Area contains protected habitat and species, including but not limited to Swainson's hawk and tri-colored blackbird foraging habitats and wetlands regulated by state and federal agencies. [Foraging habitat mitigation credits have been satisfied by the Original Developer for the portion of the Improvement Area owned by Taylor Morrison and individual homeowners. Additional habitat mitigation credits will be required for the planned development within the Four Large Lots.] At present, the property within the Improvement Area is not known to be inhabited by any other plant or animal species listed as threatened or endangered under either the State or federal endangered species acts or which either the California Fish and Game Commission or the United States Fish and Wildlife Service has proposed for addition to the respective endangered species list.

Notwithstanding this fact, new species are proposed to be added to the State and federal protected lists on a regular basis. Any action by the State or federal governments to protect species located on or adjacent to undeveloped properly could negatively affect the developer's ability to complete development as planned. This, in tum, could reduce the likelihood of timely payment of the Special Tax, from which lunds for the payment of the Bonds is derived, and would likely reduce the value of the land and the potential revenues available at a foreclosure sale for delinquent Special Taxes. See "CERTAIN RISKS TO BONDHOLDERS-Land Values."
Ilazardous Substances
While governmental taxes, assessments, and charges are a common claim against the value of a parcel, other less common claims may be relevant. One of the most serious in terms of the potential ieduction in the value of a parcel in the Improvement Area is a claim with regard to a hazardous substance. In general, the owners and operators of a parcel may be required by law to remedy conditions of the parcel relating to releases or threatened releases of hazardous substances. The federal Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, sometimes referred to ut "CERCLA" or the "superfund Act," is the most well-known and widely applicable of these laws, but laws with regard to hazardous substances are also stringent and similar. Under many of these laws, the owner (or operator) is obligated to remedy a hazardous substance condition of property whether or not the 76 Page 233
11/12/2024 Item No.1.
owner (or operator) has anything to do with creating or handlingthehazardous substance. The effect, therefore, should any of the parcels in the Improvement Area be affected by ahazardous substance is to reduce the marketability and value of the parcel by the costs of remedying the condition, because the purchaser, upon becoming owner, will become obligated to remedy the condition just as is the seller.

Fufther, such liabilities may arise not simply from the existence of a hazardous substance but from the method of handling it. All of these possibilities could significantly affect the financial and legal liability of a property owner to develop the affected parcel or other parcels, as well as the value of the property that is realizable upon a delinquency and foreclosure.

The appraised value of property in the Improvement Area does not take into account the possible reduction in marketability and value of any of the parcels by reason of the possible liability of the owner (or operator) for the remedy of a hazardous substance condition of the parcel. While the District is not aware that the owner (or operator) of any of parcels has such a current liability with respect to any of the parcels, it is possible that such liabilities do currently exist and that the District is not aware of them.

Further, it is possible that liabilities may arise in the future with respect to any of the parcels resulting from the existence, currently, on the parcel ofa substance presently classified as hazardous but which has not been released or the release of which is not presently threatened, or may arise in the future resulting from the existence, currently, on the parcel of a substance not presently classified as hazardous but which may in the future be so classified. Further, such liabilities may arise not simply from the existence of a hazardous substance but from the method of handling it. All of these possibilities could significantly affect the value of a parcel within the Improvement Area that is realizable upon a delinquency.

Naturally Occurring Asbestos
California Air Resource Board ("CARB") adopted the Airborne Toxic Control Measure ("ATCM") for Construction, Grading, Quarrying and Surface Mining Operations. This statewide regulation is applicable to grading or any other projects disturbing soil in areas of the State where asbestos may exist, as determined by the Califomia Geological Survey ("CGS"). The ATCM applies to any size construction project although there are additional notification requirements for projects that exceed one acre. Areas and parcels moderately likely to contain naturally occurring asbestos are located in the eastern parts of the County, including in the City.

Natural weathering or human disturbance can break the asbestiform minerals down to microscopic fibers, which are easily suspended in air. There is no health threat if asbestos fibers in soil remain undisturbed and do not become airborne. When inhaled, these thin fibers irritate tissues and resist the body's natural defenses. Asbestos causes cancers of the lung (such as mesothelioma) and the lining of internal organs, asbestosis, and other diseases that inhibit lung function. Scientists consider certain types of asbestos fibers (i.e., tremolite fibers and similarly structured amphibole asbestos particles) that are frequently identified in the City to be more potent than other types in causing mesothelioma.

The EIR for the Folsom Plan Area required all new development to undertake a site investigation to determine the presence of naturally occurring asbestos and, if necessary, prepare and implement an asbestos dust control plan. [The Original Developer undertook an asbestos dust control plan with respect to the grading of the 260 lots owned by Taylor Morrison and individual homeowners. Folsom Real Estate South expects that the developer of the Four Large Lots will need to implement a similar asbestos dust control plan for the grading of that property.l
The health concerns associated with the presence of naturally occurring asbestos in the Improvement Area may adversely affect the marketability of property in the area. 77 Page 234

LEGAL MATTERS
The validity of the Bonds, the Local Obligations and certain other legal matters are subject to the approving legal opinion of Orick, Herrington & Sutcliffe LLP, Bond Counsel to the Authority ("Bond Counsel'). Bond Counsel has not undertaken any responsibility for the accuracy, completeness or fairness of this Official Statement and expresses no opinion as to the matters set forth herein. Certain legal matters will be passed upon for the District and the Authority by the City Attorney. Certain legal matters relating to the Local Obligations will be passed upon by Onick, Henington & Sutcliffe LLP, as bond counsel to the District. Certain legal matters will be passed upon for the Underwriter by its counsel, Stradling, Yocca, Carlson & Rauth LLP. The fees of Bond Counsel, Disclosure Counsel, and counsel to the Underwriter are contingent upon the issuance of the Bonds.

TAX MATTERS
In the opinion of Bond Counsel, based upon an analysis of existing laws, regulations, rulings and court decisions, and assuming, among other matters, the accuracy of certain representations and compliance with certain covenants, interest on the Bonds is excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes under Section 103 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (theooCode") and is exempt from State of California personal income taxes. Bond Counsel is of the further opinion that interest on the Bonds is not a specific preference item for purposes of the federal individual alternative minimum tax.

Bond Counsel observes that interest on the Bonds included in adjusted financial statement income of certain corporations is not excluded from the federal corporate alternative minimum tax. Bond Counsel expresses no opinion regarding any other tax consequences related to the ownership or disposition of, or the amount, accrual, or receipt of interest on, the Bonds. A complete copy of the proposed form of opinion of Bond Counsel is set forth as APPENDIX E hereto.

To the extent the issue price of any maturity of the Bonds is less than the amount to be paid at maturity of such Bonds (excluding amounts stated to be interest and payable at least annually over the term of such Bonds), the difference constitutes "original issue discount," the accrual of which, to the extent properly allocable to each Beneficial Owner thereof, is treated as interest on the Bonds which is excluded fro- grorr income for federal income tax purposes and exempt from State of California personal income taxes. For this purpose, the issue price of a particular maturity of the Bonds is the first price at which a substantial amount of such maturity of the Bonds is sold to the public (excluding bond hour"r, brokers, or similar persons or organizations acting in the capacity of underwriters, placement agents or wholesalers). The original issue discount with respect to any maturity of the Bonds accrues daily over the term to maturity of such Bonds on the basis of a constant interest rate compounded semiannually (with straight-line interpolations between compounding dates). The accruing original issue discount is added to the adjusted basis of such Bonds to determine taxable gain or loss upon disposition (including sale, redemption, or payment on maturity) of such Bonds. Beneficial Owners of the Bonds should consult their own tax advisors with respect to the tax consequences of ownership of Bonds with original issue discount, including the treatment of Beneficial Owners who do not purchase such Bonds in the original offering to the public at the first price at which a substantial amount of such Bonds is sold to the public.

Bonds purchased, whether at original issuance or otherwise, for an amount higher than their principal u-ount payable at maturity (or, in some cases, at their earlier call date) ("Premium Bonds") will Le ffeated as having amortizable bond premium. No deduction is allowable for the amortizable bond premium in the case of bonds, like the Premium Bonds, the interest on which is excluded from gross in"o-" for federal income tax purposes. However, the amount of tax-exempt interest received, and a Beneficial Owner's basis in a Premium Bond, will be reduced by the amount of amortizable bond premium properly allocable to such Beneficial Owner. Beneficial Owners of Premium Bonds should 78 Page 235
11/12/2024 Item No.1.
consult their own tax advisors with respect to the proper treatment of amortizable bond premium in their particular circumstances.

The Code imposes various restrictions, conditions and requirements relating to the exclusion from gross income for federal income tax purposes of interest on obligations such as the Bonds. The Authority, the City and the District have made certain representations and covenanted to comply with certain restrictions, conditions and requirements designed to ensure that interest on the Bonds will not be included in federal gross income. Inaccuracy of these representations or failure to comply with these covenants may result in interest on the Bonds being included in gross income for federal income tax purposes, possibly from the date of original issuance of the Bonds. The opinion of Bond Counsel a.ru-"s the accuracy of these representations and compliance with these covenants. Bond Counsel has not undertaken to determine (or to inform any person) whether any actions taken (or not taken), or events occurring (or not occurring), or any other matters coming to Bond Counsel's attention after the date of issuance of the Bonds may adversely affect the value of, or the tax status of interest on, the Bonds.

Accordingly, the opinion of Bond Counsel is not intended to, and may not, be relied upon in connection with any such actions, events or matters.

Although Bond Counsel is of the opinion that interest on the Bonds is excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes and is exempt from State of California personal income taxes, the ownership or disposition of, or the accrual or receipt of amounts treated as interest on, the Bonds may otherwise affect a Beneficial Owner's federal, state or local tax liability. The nature and extent of these other tax consequences depends upon the particular tax status of the Beneficial Owner or the Beneficial Owner's other items of income or deduction. Bond Counsel expresses no opinion regarding any such other tax consequences.

Current and future legislative proposals, if enacted into law, clarification of the Code or court decisions may cause interest on the Bonds to be subject, directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, to federal income taxation or to be subject to or exempted from state income taxation, or otherwise prevent Beneficial Owners from realizing the full current benefit of the tax status of such interest. The introduction or enactment of any such legislative proposals or clarification of the Code or court decisions may also affect, perhaps significantly, the market price for, or marketability of, the Bonds. Prospective purchasers of the Bonds should consult their own tax advisors regarding the potential impact of any pending or proposed federal or state tax legislation, regulations or litigation, as to which Bond Counsel expresses no opinion.

The opinion of Bond Counsel is based on current legal authority, covers certain matters not directly addressed by such authorities, and represents Bond Counsel's judgment as to the proper treatment of the Bonds for federal income tax purposes. It is not binding on the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") or the courts. Furthermore, Bond Counsel cannot give and has not given any opinion or assurance about the future activities of the Authority, the City or the District, or about the effect of future changes in the Code, the applicable regulations, the interpretation thereof or the enforcement thereof by the IRS. The Authority, tfte City and the District have covenanted, however, to comply with the requirements of the Code.

Bond Counsel's engagement with respect to the Bonds ends with the issuance of the Bonds, and, unless separately engaged, Bond Counsel is not obligated to defend the Authority, the City, the District or the Beneficial Owners regarding the tax-exempt status of the Bonds in the event of an audit examination by the IRS. Under current procedures, Beneficial Owners would have little, if any, right to participate in the audit examination process. Moreover, because achieving judicial review in connection with an audit examination of tax-exempt bonds is difficult, obtaining an independent review of IRS positions with which the Authority, the City or the District legitimately disagrees, may not be practicable. Any action of 79

Amounts withheld under the backup withhotding rules may be refunded or credited against a Beneficial Owner's federal income tax liability, if any, provided that the required information is timely furnished to the IRS.

Other Post-Employment Benejits. ln 2004. the Government Accounting Standards Board ("GASB") issued Statement No. 45, Accounting and Financial Reporting by Employers for Post- Employment Benefits Other Than Pensions ("GASB 45"). GASB 45 requires goverrrmental agencies to change their accounting for Other Post-Employment Benefits ("OPEB") from a pay-as-you-go to an accrual basis. The City has implemented the requirements of GASB 45, including financial statement reporting and disclosure requirements. Among other things, employers that participate in single-employer oi agent -ultiple-employer defined benefit OPEB plans are required to measure and disclose an amount for annual OPEB cost on the accrual basis of accounting. Annual OPEB cost is equal to the employer's annual required contribution to the plan, with certain adjustments. The annual required contribution represents a level offunding that, ifpaid on an ongoing basis, is projected to cover normal cost each year and amortize any unfunded actuarial liabilities (or funding excess) over a period not to exceed 30 years.

The opinions expressed herein are based on an analysis of existing laws, regulations, rulings and court deciiions and cover certain matters not directly addressed by such authorities' Such opini,ons may be affected by actions taken or omitted or events occurring after original delivery of the Bbnds on the date hereof. We have not undertaken to determine, or to inform any person, whether any such actions are taken or omitted or events do occur or any other matters come to our attention after original delivery of the Bonds on the date hereof. Accordingly, this letter speaks only as of its date and is noi intended to, and may not, be relied upon or otherwise used in connection with any such actions, events or matters.

We have assumed the genuineness of all documents and signatures provided to us and the due and legal execution and delivery thereof by, and validity against, any parties other than the Issuer. We have assumed, without undertaking to veriff, the u""uruty of tn" facfual matters represented, warranted or certified in the documents, and of the legal conclusions contained in the opinions, referred to in the second paragraph hereof. Furthermore, we have assumed compliance with all covenants and agreements contained in the Trust Agreement and the Tax Certificate, iniluding (without limitation) covenants and agreements compliance with which is necessary to assure that future actions, omissions or events will not cause interest on the Bonds to be included in gross income for federal income tax purposes. We call attention to the fact that the rights and obligations under the Bonds, the Trust Agreement and the Tax Certificate and their enforceability may be subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, reorganization, arrangement, fraudulent conveyance, moratorium E-1 Page 268

1. The Bonds constitute the valid and binding special, limited obligations of the Issuer.

2. The Trust Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by, and constitutes the valid and binding agreement of, the Issuer. The Trust Agreement creates a valid pledge, to secure the payment of the principal of and interest on the Bonds, of the Trust Estate, including the Revenues and any other amounts (including proceeds of the sale of the Bonds) held by the Trustee in the Funds established pursuant to the Trust Agreement (except the Rebate Fund), subject to the provisions of the Trust Agreement permitting the application thereof for the purposes and on the terms and conditions set forth in the Trust Agreement.

3.

APPENDIX F'

DTC AND THE BOOK-ENTRY ONLY SYSTEM
The description that follows of the procedures and recordkeeping with respect to beneficial ownership interests in the Bonds, payment of principal of, premium, ,f ony, and interest on the Bonds to Participints or Beneficial Owners, confirmation and transfer of beneficial ownership interests in the Bonds, and other related transactions by and between DTC, Participants and Beneficial Owners, is based on information furnished by DTC which the Authority believes to be reliable, but the Authority does not take responsibility for the completeness or accuracy thereof. The Authority cannot and does not give any assurances that DTC, DTC Participants or Indirect Participants will distribute to the Beneficial Owners either (a) payments of principal, premium, tf any, and interest with respect to the Bonds or ft) certificates representiing ownership interests in or other confirmation of ownership interests in the Bonds, or that they will so do on a timely bssis or that DTC, DTC Participants or DTC Indirect Participants will act in the manner described in this Official Statement. The current "Rules" applicable to DTC are onfile with the Securities and Exchange Commission and the current "Procedures" of DTC to be followed in dealing with DTC Participants are onfile with DTC.

The Depository Company ("DTC"), New York, New York, will act as securities depository for the Bonds. The Bonds will be issued as fully-registered securities registered in the name of Cede & Co. (DTC's partnership nominee) or such other name as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. One fully-registered bond certificate will be issued for each maturity of the Bonds in the aggregate principal amount of such maturity, and will be deposited with DTC. If, however, the aggregate principal amount of any maturity exceeds $500 million, one certificate will be issued with respect to each $500 million of principal amount, and an additional certificate will be issued with respect to any remaining principal amount of such maturity.

DTC, the world's largest securities depository, is a limited-purpose trust company organized under the New York Banking Law, a "banking organization" within the meaning of the New York Banking Law, amember of the Federal Reserve System, a "clearing corporation" within the meaning of the New York Uniform Commercial Code, and a "clearing agency" registered pursuant to the provisions of Section 17A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. DTC holds and provides asset servicing for over

3.5 million issues of U.S. and non-U.S. equity issues, corporate and municipal debt issues, and money market instruments (from over 100 countries) that DTC's participants ("Direct Participants") deposit with DTC. DTC also facilitates the post-trade settlement among Direct Participants of sales and other securities transactions in deposited securities, through electronic computerized book-entry transfers and pledges between Direct Participants' accounts. This eliminates the need for physical movement of iecurities certificates. Direct Participants include both U.S. and non-U.S. securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, clearing corporations, and certain other organizations. DTC is a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation ("DTCC"). DTCC is the holding company for DTC, National Securities Clearing Corporation and Fixed Income Clearing Corporation, all of which are registered clearing agencies. DTCC is owned by the users of its regulated subsidiaries. Access to the DTC iystem is also available to others such as both U.S. and non-U.S. securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, and clearing corporations that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a Direct Participant, either directly or indirectly ("Indirect Participants"). DTC has a Standard & Poor's rating of AA+. The DTC Rules applicable to its Participants are on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission. More information about DTC can be found at www.dtcc.com.

F-l Page 270
11/12/2024 Item No.1.

Purchases of the Bonds under the DTC system must be made by or through Direct Participants, which will receive a credit for the Bonds on DTC's records. The ownership interest of each actual purchaser of each Bond (the "Beneficial Owner") is in turn to be recorded on the Direct and Indirect Participants' records. Beneficial Owners will not receive wriffen confirmation from DTC of their purchase. Beneficial Owners are, however, expected to receive written confirmations providing details of the transaction, as well as periodic statements of their holdings, from the Direct or Indirect Participant through which the Beneficial Owner entered into the transaction. Transfers of ownership interests in the Bonds are to be accomplished by entries made on the books of Direct and Indirect Participants acting on behalf of Beneficial Owners. Beneficial Owners will not receive certificates representing their ownership interests in Bonds, except in the event that use of the book-entry system for the Bonds is discontinued.

To facilitate subsequent transfers, all Bonds deposited by Direct Participants with DTC are registered in the name of DTC's partnership nominee, Cede & Co., or such other name as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. The deposit of the Bonds with DTC and their registration in the name of Cede & Co. (or such other DTC nominee) do not effect any change in beneficial ownership. DTC has no knowledge of the actual Beneficial Owners of the Bonds; DTC's records reflect only the identity of the Direct Participants to whose accounts such Bonds are credited, which may or may not be the Beneficial Owners. The Direct and Indirect Participants will remain responsible for keeping account of their holdings on behalf of their customers.

Conveyance of notices and other communications by DTC to Direct Participants, by Direct Participants to Indirect Participants, and by Direct Participants and Indirect Participants to Beneficial Owners will be governed by arrangements among them, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time to time. Beneficial Owners of Bonds may wish to take certain steps to augment the transmission to them of notices of significant events with respect to the Bonds, such as redemptions, tenders, defaults and proposed amendments to the Bond documents. For example, Beneficial Owners of Bonds may wish to ascertain that the nominee holding the Bonds for their benefit has agreed to obtain and transmit notices to Beneficial Owners. In the alternative, Beneficial Owners may wish to provide their names and addresses to the registrar and request that copies of notices be provided directly to them.

Redemption notices shall be sent to DTC. If less than all of the Bonds within a maturity are being redeemed, DTC's practice is to determine by lot the amount of the interest of each Direct Participant in such maturity to be redeemed.

Neither DTC nor Cede & Co. (nor any other DTC nominee) will consent or vote with respect to the Bonds unless authorized by a Direct Participant in accordance with DTC's MMI Procedures. Under its usual procedures, DTC mails an Omnibus Proxy to the Authority as soon as possible after the record date. The Omnibus Proxy assigns Cede & Co.'s consenting or voting rights to those Direct Participants to whose accounts the Bonds are credited on the record date (identified in a listing attached to the Omnibus Proxy).

Principal, redemption price, and interest payments with respect to the Bonds will be made to Cede & Co., or such other nominee as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. DTC's practice is to credit Direct Participants' accounts upon DTC's receipt of funds and corresponding detail information from the Authority on a payable date in accordance with their respective holdings shown on DTC records. Payments by Participants to Beneficial Owners will be governed by standing instructions and customary practices, as is the case with securities held for the accounts of customers in bearer form or registered in "street name," and will be the responsibility of such Participant and not of DTC or its nominee, the Trustee, or the Authority, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time to time. Payment of principal, redemption price and interest to Cede & Co. (or such F-2 Page 271
11/12/2024 Item No.1.
other nominee as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC) is the responsibility of the Authority or the Trustee, disbursement of such payments to Direct Participants shall be the responsibility of DTC, and disbursement of such payments to the Beneficial Owners shall be the responsibility of Direct and Indirect Participants.

DTC may discontinue providing its services as depository with respect to the Bonds at any time by giving reasonable notice to the Authority or the Trustee. Under such circumstances, in the event that a successor depository is not obtained, bond certificates are required to be printed and delivered.

The Authority may decide to discontinue use of the system of book-entry-only transfers through DTC (or a successor securities depository). In that event, bond certificates will be printed and delivered to DTC.

The information in this section concerning DTC and DTC's book-entry system has been obtained from sources that the Authority deems reliable, but the Authority takes no responsibility for the accuracy thereof.

TI{E TRUSTEE, AS LONG AS A BOOK-ENTRY ONLY SYSTEM IS USED FOR THE

BONDS, WILL SEND ANY NOTICE OF REDEMPTION OR OTHER NOTICES ONLY TO CEDE & CO., OR ITS SUCCESSOR AS DTC'S PARTNERSHIP NOMTNEE. ANY FAILURE OF CEDE & CO., OR ITS SUCCESSOR AS DTC'S PARTNERSHIP NOMINEE TO ADVISE ANY

PARTICIPANT, OR OF ANY PARTICIPANT TO NOTIFY ANY BENEFICIAL OWNER OF ANY

NOTICE AND ITS CONTENT OR EFFECT WILL NOT AFFECT TTM, VALIDITY OR

SUFFICIENCY OF THE PROCEEDINGS RELATING TO TFIE REDEMPTION OF THE BONDS CALLED FOR REDEMPTION OR OF ANY OTI{ER ACTION PREMISED ON SUCH NOTICE.

8. The execution and delivery of the Financing Documents and the Continuing Disclosure Certificate by the Community Facilities District, and compliance with the provisions thereof, will not conflict with or constitute a breach of, or default under, any instrument relating to the organization, existence or operation of the Community Facilities District, or any commitment, agreement or other instrument to which the Community Facilities District is a party or by which it or its property is bound or affected, or any ruling, regulation, ordinance, resolution, judgment, order or decree to which the Community Facilities District (or any of its officers in their respective capacities as such) is subject or any provision of the laws of the State of California relating to the Community Facilities District and its affairs. g.

10. Based upon my review of the Preliminary Official Statement, and without having undertaken to determine independently the accuracy, completeness or fairness of the statements contained in the Preliminary Offrcial Statement, nothing has come to my attention which would lead me to believe that the Preliminary Official Statement (excluding therefrom the financial statements and the statistical data and the information concerning The Depository Trust Company, the book-entry system and the appendices thereto, as to which no opinion is expressed) as of its date and as of the date of the Local Obligation Purchase Contract contained any untrue statement of a material fact with respect to the Community Facilities District or omitted or omits to state any material fact with respect to the Community Facilities District necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

(the "Municipal Advisor") and any notice or report to be provided to the Authority may be provided to the Municipal Advisor' C. Except as otherwise set forth in Exhibit A, the Authority will treat the first price at which I 0% of each maturity of the Bonds (the "10"h test") is sold to the public as the issue price of that maturity (if different interest rates apply within a maturity, each separate CUSIP number within that maturity will be subject to the 10% test). At or promptly after the execution of this Purchase Agreement, the Underwriter shall report to the Authority the price or prices at which it has sold to the puUti" each maturity of the Bonds. If at that time the 10% test has not been satisfied as to any maturity of tn" Bonds, the Underwriter agrees to promptly report to the Authority the prices at which it sells the unsold Bonds of that maturity to the public.
