No Facilities Special Tax shall be levied on up to 12.22 Acres of Public Property and/or Property Owner Association Property in CFD No. 117. Tax-exe mpt status shall be assigned by the CFD Administrator in the chronological order in which p roperty in CFD No. 117 becomes Public Property or Property Owner Association Property. H owever, should an Assessor’s Parcel no longer be classified as Public Property or Property Owner Association Property, it shall, from that point forward, be subject to the Facilities Special Tax.

Notwithstanding the above, an Assessor’s Parcel in CFD No. 117 that is transferred to a public agency or property owner’s association prior to the issuance of the first series of CFD No. 117 Bonds that causes the Acreage of Public Property an d Property Owner Association Property to exceed the 12.22 Acreage limit that can be designat ed by the CFD Administrator under this Section E.1 shall also be exempted from paying the Facilities Special Tax.

414

City of Fontana January 30, 2026
Community Facilities District No. 117 (Southridge) Page 12 No Services Special Tax shall be levied on Undevelo ped Property, Taxable Public Property, Taxable Property Owner Association Property, Public Property, or Property Owner Association Property.

In addition, no Services Special Tax shall be levie d on Lower Income Households Welfare Exemption Property, provided that if, in any Fiscal Year, applicable law does not require that an Assessor’s Parcel that is Lower Income Households Welfare Exemption Property be exempt from the Services Special Tax, then the Services Special Tax shall be levied on such Assessor’s Parcel in accordance with this Rate and Method of Apportionment as if such Assessor’s Parcel were not classified as Lower Income Households Welfare Exemption Property.

F. MANNER OF COLLECTION
The Special Tax shall be collected in the same manner and at the same time as ordinary ad valorem property taxes; provided, however, that CFD No. 117 may directly bill the Special Tax, and/or may collect Special Taxes at a different time or in a different manner if necessary to meet financial obligations, and, to the extent of the Facilities S pecial Tax, may covenant to foreclose and may actually foreclose on delinquent Assessor’s Parcels.

G. APPEALS AND INTERPRETATIONS
Any landowner or resident who feels that the amount of the Special Tax levied on his/her Assessor’s Parcel is in error may submit a written appeal to the CFD Administrator, provided that the appellant is current in his/her payment of Spec ial Taxes. During the pendency of an appeal, all Special Taxes previously levied must be paid on or before the payment date established when the levy was made. The CFD Administrator shall review the appeal, meet with the appellant if the CFD Administrator deems necessary, and advise the a ppellant of its determination. If the CFD Administrator agrees with the appellant, a cash ref und shall not be made (except for the last year of levy), but the amount of the Special Tax levied shall be appropriately modified through an adjustment to the Special Tax levy in the following Fiscal Year. If the CFD Administrator disagrees with the appellant and the appellant is d issatisfied with the determination, the appellant then has 30 days in which to appeal to the Council by filing a written notice of appeal with the City Clerk, provided that the appellant is current in his/her payment of Special Taxes. This second appeal must specify the reasons for its disagreement with the CFD Administrator's determination.

The CFD Administrator shall interpret this Rate and Method of Apportionment for purposes of clarifying any ambiguity and make determinations re lative to the annual administration of the Special Tax and any landowner or resident appeals. Any decision of the CFD Administrator shall be subject to appeal to the Council whose decision shall be final and binding as to all persons.

H. PREPAYMENT OF FACILITIES SPECIAL TAX
Under this Rate and Method of Apportionment, an Ass essor’s Parcel within CFD No. 117 is permitted to prepay the Facilities Special Tax.

"Future Facilities Costs" means the CFD Public Facilities Costs minus (i) co sts of Authorized Facilities previously paid from the Improvement Fun d, (ii) moneys currently on deposit in the Improvement Fund available to pay costs of Authoriz ed Facilities, and (iii) the amount the CFD Administrator reasonably expects to derive from the reinvestment of these funds. "Improvement Fund" means a fund or account specifically identified in the Indenture (or prior to the issuance of the first series of CFD No. 117 Bonds a fund or account held by the City) to hold funds which are currently available for expenditure to acquire or construct Authorized Facilities.

City of Fontana January 30, 2026
Community Facilities District No. 117 (Southridge) Page 14

2. For Assessor’s Parcels of Developed Property, compu te the Assigned Facilities Special Tax and Backup Facilities Special Tax for the Asses sor’s Parcel to be prepaid. For Assessor’s Parcels of Undeveloped Property for whic h a building permit has been issued after January 1, 2026, compute the Assigned Facilit ies Special Tax and Backup Facilities Special Tax for that Assessor’s Parcel as though it was already designated as Developed Property, based upon the building permit which has already been issued for such Assessor’s Parcel.

3. (a) Divide the Assigned Facilities Special Tax comp uted pursuant to paragraph 2 by the total estimated Assigned Facilities Special Tax lev y for CFD No. 117 based on the Assigned Facilities Special Taxes for Developed Pro perty which could be levied on all expected development assuming Buildout of CFD No. 1 17, excluding any Assessor’s Parcels which have been prepaid, and
(b) Divide the Backup Facilities Special Tax computed pursuant to paragraph 2 by the total estimated Backup Facilities Special Taxes at Buildo ut for the entire CFD No. 117, excluding any Assessor’s Parcels which have been prepaid.

4. Multiply the larger quotient computed pursuant to paragraph 3(a) or 3(b) by the Previously Issued Bonds to compute the amount of Previously Is sued Bonds to be redeemed (the "Bond Redemption Amount").

5. Multiply the Bond Redemption Amount computed pursua nt to paragraph 4 by the applicable redemption premium (e.g., the redemption price minus 100%) set forth in the Indenture, if any, on the Previously Issued Bonds t o be redeemed (the "Redemption Premium").

6. Compute the current Future Facilities Costs.

7. Multiply the larger quotient computed pursuant to p aragraph 3(a) or 3(b) by the amount determined pursuant to paragraph 6 to compute the amount of Future Facilities Costs to be prepaid (the "Future Facilities Amount").

Compute the amount needed to pay interest on the Bo nd Redemption Amount from the first bond interest and/or principal payment date following the current Fiscal Year until the redemption date for the Previously Issued Bonds spe cified in the report of the Facilities Special Tax Prepayment Amount.

9. Determine the Facilities Special Tax levied on the Assessor’s Parcel in the current Fiscal Year which has not yet been paid.

11. Add the amounts computed pursuant to paragraphs 8 a nd 9 and subtract the amount computed pursuant to paragraph 10 (the "Defeasance Amount").

12. The administrative fees and expenses of CFD No. 117 are as calculated by the CFD Administrator and include the costs of computation of the prepayment, the costs to invest the prepayment proceeds, the costs of redeeming CFD No. 117 Bonds, and the costs of 417

City of Fontana January 30, 2026
Community Facilities District No. 117 (Southridge) Page 15 recording any notices to evidence the prepayment and the redemption (the "Administrative Fees and Expenses").

13. The reserve fund credit (the "Reserve Fund Credit") shall equal the lesser of: (a) the expected reduction in the reserve requirement (as d efined in the Indenture), if any, associated with the redemption of Previously Issued Bonds as a result of the prepayment, or (b) the amount derived by subtracting the new re serve requirement (as defined in the Indenture) in effect after the redemption of Previo usly Issued Bonds as a result of the prepayment from the balance in the reserve fund on the prepayment date, but in no event shall such amount be less than zero. No Reserve Fund Credit shall be granted if the amount then on deposit in the reserve fund for the Previou sly Issued Bonds is below 100% of the reserve requirement (as defined in the Indenture).

14. If any capitalized interest for the Previously Issued Bonds will not have been expended as of the date immediately following the first interest and/or principal payment following the current Fiscal Year, a capitalized interest credit shall be calculated by multiplying the larger quotient computed pursuant to paragraph 3(a) or 3(b ) by the expected balance in the capitalized interest fund or account under the Inde nture after such first interest and/or principal payment date (the "Capitalized Interest Credit").
