AUTHORIZING THE EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF DOCUMENTS

AND CERTIFICATES IN CONNECTION WITH THE ISSUANCE BY THE

REVENUE REFUNDING BONDS, 2026 SERIES A

DATE: June 24, 2026

1. Adopt Resolution Nos. 26-51 (City Council) and 26-01 (Public Financing Authority) Authorizing the Execution and Delivery of a Lease Agreement, a Ground Lease, an Indenture, a Continuing Disclosure Certificate, and a Bond Purchase Agreement in Connection with the Issuance by the Montebello Public Financing Authority of Lease Revenue Refunding Bonds, Approving the Issuance of Such Bonds in One or More Series in an Aggregate Principal Amount Not to Exceed $44,000,000, Authorizing the Distribution of an Official Statement in Connection with the Offering and Sale of Such Bonds, and Authorizing the Execution of Necessary Documents and Certificates and Related Actions; and

FISCAL IMPACT:

The 2026 Bonds are being issued to refinance the Montebello Public Financing Authority Lease Revenue Bonds, 2016 Series A (Montebello Home2Suites by Hilton Hotel Project) (the “2016A Bonds”) for debt service savings.

Page 5 of 258 ends

CITY COUNCIL AND PUBLIC FINANCING AUTHORITY AGENDA REPORT - MEETING OF JUNE 24, 2026

Page 2 of 4 ends

Based on interest rates as of June 12, 2026, the 2026 Bonds are expected to be issued in a principal amount of approximately $40.325 million and a true interest cost of 4.04%.

The transaction is expected to reduce annual debt service payments by an estimated $435,000 on average and generate approximately $2.44 million in net present value savings. The net present value savings represents about 5.2% of the amount of debt being refinanced. The annual estimated savings in debt service would lower operating expenditures, allowing for a greater cushion between revenue and expenses in the event of an economic downturn impacting leisure and travel.

In accordance with California Government Code Section 5852.1, good faith estimates are provided with respect to the 2026 Bonds in Attachment A.

BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION:

In November 2016, the Public Financing Authority issued $54,860,000 of the 2016A Bonds to finance the acquisition, construction and equipping of the Home2Suites by Hilton Hotel Project. The 2016A Bonds are payable from revenues under the lease agreement, including base rental payments paid by the City. Currently, there is $46,660,000 of par amount outstanding on the 2016A Bonds. The 2016A Bonds were structured with a final term of June 1, 2046 and interest rates of 5.00%. The 2016A Bonds are subject to optional redemption on or after June 1, 2026 at a price of 100% of par.

Staff has determined, in consultation with its Municipal Advisor, that the current market conditions are favorable for the issuance of refunding bonds to refund and defease the 2016A Bonds for debt service savings. The 2026 Bonds will maintain the same final maturity (June 1, 2046) as the 2016A Bonds. In other words, there would be no extension of the final maturity.

It is expected that the 2026 Bonds will receive the same rating as the 2016A Bonds (A+ from S&P), reflecting the credit characteristics of the City, condition of the General Fund, and structure of the bonds. Additionally, the 2026 Bonds are also expected to qualify for bond insurance, which would lead to a lower cost of borrowing (i.e., reduced cost of borrowing leads to lower annual debt service).

The 2026 Bonds will be payable from Lease Payments made by the City to the Authority under the Lease Agreement pursuant to which the City will lease the Property (consisting of the Home2Suites Hotel) from the Authority (Attachment F). Operating revenues from the Home2Suites Hotel have historically been more than sufficient to pay for all operating expenses associated with the project, including debt service payments on the 2016A Bonds being refunded. The City expects future net operating income from the hotel to be sufficient to pay debt service on the 2026 Bonds. However, the City will be obligated to pay Base Rental Payments from any available source of funds, including the City’s General Fund, if net revenues generated by the Home2 Suites Hotel are insufficient.

City Council and the Authority (as issuer of the 2026 Bonds) are being asked to approve the issuance of the 2026 Bonds and all related documents (Attachments A through J), as

Page 6 of 258 ends

CITY COUNCIL AND PUBLIC FINANCING AUTHORITY AGENDA REPORT - MEETING OF JUNE 24, 2026

Page 3 of 4 ends

further described herein. After approval of the 2026 bond refinancing, staff will work with the financing team on finalizing all legal documents and the preliminary official statement (Attachment J) with the goal of pricing the refunding of bonds in July 2026.

GOOD FAITH ESTIMATES
The good faith estimates set forth herein are provided with respect to the 2026 Bonds in accordance with California Government Code Section 5852.1. Such good faith estimates have been provided to the City by Urban Futures, Inc., as municipal advisor to the City (the “Municipal Advisor”), each with respect to the 2026 Bonds, and are based on interest rates provided by Cabrera Capital Markets, LLC, as of June 12, 2026.

Principal Amount. The Municipal Advisor has informed the City that, based on the City’s financing plan and current market conditions, its good faith estimate of the aggregate principal amount of the 2026 Bonds to be sold is $40,325,000 (the “Estimated Principal Amount”).

True Interest Cost of the Bonds. The Municipal Advisor has informed the City that, assuming that the Estimated Principal Amount of the 2026 Bonds is sold, and based on market interest rates prevailing at the time of preparation of such estimate, its good faith estimate of the true interest cost of the 2026 Bonds, which means the rate necessary to discount the amounts payable on the respective principal and interest payment dates to the purchase price received for the 2026 Bonds, is 4.04%.

Finance Charge of the Bonds. The Municipal Advisor has informed the City that, assuming that the Estimated Principal Amount of the 2026 Bonds is sold, and based on market interest rates prevailing at the time of preparation of such estimate, its good faith estimate of the finance charge for the 2026 Bonds, which means the sum of all fees and charges paid to third parties (or costs associated with the 2026 Bonds), is $640,656.

Amount of Proceeds to be Received. The Municipal Advisor has informed the City that, assuming that the Estimated Principal Amount of the 2026 Bonds is sold, and based on market interest rates prevailing at the time of preparation of such estimate, its good faith estimate of the amount of proceeds expected to be received by the City for sale of the 2026 Bonds, less the finance charge of the 2026 Bonds, as estimated above, and any reserves or capitalized interest paid or funded with proceeds of the 2026 Bonds, is $43,399,316.

Total Payment Amount. The Municipal Advisor has informed the City that, assuming that the Estimated Principal Amount of the 2026 Bonds is sold, and based on market interest rates prevailing at the time of preparation of such estimate, its good faith estimate of the total payment amount, which means the sum total of all payments the City will make to pay debt service on the 2026 Bonds (which payments are net of interest to be paid from the capitalized interest fund and net of the final bond payments to be paid from the debt service reserve fund), plus the finance charge for the 2026 Bonds, as described above, not paid with the proceeds of the 2026 Bonds, calculated to the final maturity of the 2026 Bonds, is $64,271,965.

The foregoing estimates constitute good faith estimates only. The actual principal amount of the 2026 Bonds issued and sold, the true interest cost thereof, the finance charges thereof, the amount of proceeds received therefrom and total payment amount

Page 9 of 258 ends

with respect thereto may differ from such good faith estimates due to (a) the actual date of the sale of the 2026 Bonds being different than the date assumed for purposes of such estimates, (b) the actual principal amount of 2026 Bonds sold being different from the Estimated Principal Amount, (c) the actual amortization of the 2026 Bonds being different than the amortization assumed for purposes of such estimates, (d) the actual market interest rates at the time of sale of the 2026 Bonds being different than those estimated for purposes of such estimates, (e) other market conditions, or (f) alterations in the City’s financing plan, or a combination of such factors. The actual date of sale of the 2026 Bonds and the actual principal amount of 2026 Bonds sold will be determined by the City based on the timing of the need for proceeds of the 2026 Bonds and other factors. The actual interest rates borne by the 2026 Bonds will depend on market interest rates at the time of sale thereof. The actual amortization of the 2026 Bonds will also depend, in part, on market interest rates at the time of sale thereof. Market interest rates are affected by economic and other factors beyond the control of the City.

GOOD FAITH ESTIMATES
The good faith estimates set forth herein are provided with respect to the Bonds in accordance with California Government Code Section 5852.1. Such good faith estimates have been provided to the Authority by the Authority’s Municipal Advisor, Urban Futures, Inc., in consultation with Cabrera Capital Markets, the Underwriter of the Bonds, as of _____.

Principal Amount. The Municipal Advisor has informed the Authority that, based on the Authority’s financing plan and current market conditions, its good faith estimate of the aggregate principal amount of the Bonds to be issued and sold is $40,325,000 (the “Estimated Principal Amount”).

True Interest Cost of the Bonds. The Municipal Advisor has informed the Authority that, assuming that the Estimated Principal Amount of the Bonds is issued and sold, and based on market interest rates prevailing at the time of preparation of such estimate, its good faith estimate of the true interest cost of the Bonds, which means the rate necessary to discount the amounts payable on the respective principal and interest payment dates to the purchase price received for the Bonds, is 4.04%.

Finance Charge of the Bonds. The Municipal Advisor has informed the Authority that, assuming that the Estimated Principal Amount of the Bonds is issued and sold, and based on market interest rates prevailing at the time of preparation of such estimate, its good faith estimate of the finance charge for the Bonds, which means the sum of all fees and charges paid to third parties (or costs associated with the Bonds), is $640,656.

Amount of Proceeds to be Received. The Municipal Advisor has informed the Authority that, assuming that the Estimated Principal Amount of the Bonds is issued and sold, and based on market interest rates prevailing at the time of preparation of such estimate, its good faith estimate of the amount of proceeds expected to be received by the Authority for sale of the Bonds, less the finance charge of the Bonds, as estimated above, and any reserves or capitalized interest paid or funded with proceeds of the Bonds, is $43,399,316.

Total Payment Amount. The Municipal Advisor has informed the Authority that, assuming that the Estimated Principal Amount of the Bonds is issued and sold, and based on market interest rates prevailing at the time of preparation of such estimate, its good faith estimate of the total payment amount, which means the sum total of all payments the Authority will make to pay debt service on the Bonds, plus the finance charge for the Bonds, as described above, not paid with the proceeds of the Bonds, calculated to the final maturity of the Bonds, is $64,271,965, which excludes any reserves or capitalized interest paid or funded with proceeds of the Bonds (which may offset such total payment amount) and further excludes future administrative costs such as trustee and continuing disclosure costs.

The foregoing estimates constitute good faith estimates only and are based on market conditions prevailing at the time of preparation of such estimates. The actual

Page 17 of 258 ends

principal amount of the Bonds issued and sold, the true interest cost thereof, the finance charges thereof, the amount of proceeds received therefrom and total payment amount with respect thereto may differ from such good faith estimates due to (a) the actual date of the sale of the Bonds being different than the date assumed for purposes of such estimates, (b) the actual principal amount of Bonds issued and sold being different from the Estimated Principal Amount, (c) the actual amortization of the Bonds being different than the amortization assumed for purposes of such estimates, (d) the actual market interest rates at the time of sale of the Bonds being different than those estimated for purposes of such estimates, (e) other market conditions, (f) alterations to the Authority’s financing plan, or a combination of such factors.

In case any of such officers of the Authority who shall have signed or attested any of the Bonds shall cease to be such officers of the Authority before the Bonds so signed or attested shall have been authenticated or delivered by the Trustee, or issued by the Authority, such Bonds may nevertheless be authenticated, delivered and issued and, upon such authentication, delivery and issue, shall be as binding upon the Authority as though those who signed and attested the same had continued to be such officers of the Authority, and also any Bonds may be signed and attested on behalf of the Authority by such Persons as at the actual date of execution of such Bonds shall be the proper officers of the Authority although at the nominal date of such Bonds any such Person shall not have been such officer of the Authority.

Section 2.07 Authentication of Bonds. Only such of the Bonds as shall bear thereon a certificate of authentication substantially in the form as that set forth in Exhibit A hereto, manually executed by the Trustee, shall be valid or obligatory for any purpose or entitled to the benefits of this Indenture, and such certificate of or on behalf of the Trustee shall be conclusive evidence that the Bonds so authenticated have been duly executed, authenticated and delivered hereunder and are entitled to the benefits of this Indenture.

Section 2.08 Temporary Bonds. The Bonds of a Series may be issued in temporary form exchangeable for definitive Bonds of such Series when ready for delivery. Any temporary Bonds may be printed, lithographed or typewritten, shall be of such authorized denominations as may be

Page 43 of 258 ends

14 4934-8775-8758v3/200907-0004
determined by the Authority, shall be in fully registered form without coupons and may contain such reference to any of the provisions of this Indenture as may be appropriate. Every temporary Bond shall be executed by the Authority and authenticated by the Trustee upon the same conditions and in substantially the same manner as the definitive Bonds. If the Authority issues temporary Bonds of a Series it will execute and deliver definitive Bonds of such Series as promptly thereafter as practicable, and thereupon the temporary Bonds of such Series, may be surrendered, for cancellation, at the Office of the Trustee and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange for such temporary Bonds an equal aggregate principal amount of definitive Bonds of such Series in Authorized Denominations.

Until so exchanged, the temporary Bonds of such Series shall be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Bonds of such Series authenticated and delivered hereunder.

Section 2.09 Bonds Mutilated, Lost, Destroyed or Stolen. If any Bond shall become mutilated, the Authority, at the expense of the Owner of said Bond, shall execute, and the Trustee shall thereupon authenticate and deliver, a new Bond of like tenor and Series in exchange and substitution for the Bond so mutilated, but only upon surrender to the Trustee of the Bond so mutilated. Every mutilated Bond so surrendered to the Trustee shall be canceled by it and delivered to, or in accordance with the order of, the Authority. If any Bond shall be lost, destroyed or stolen, evidence of such loss, destruction or theft may be submitted to the Trustee and, if such evidence and indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee shall be given, the Authority, at the expense of the Owner, shall execute, and the Trustee shall thereupon authenticate and deliver, a new Bond of like tenor and Series in lieu of and in replacement for the Bond so lost, destroyed or stolen (or if any such Bond shall have matured or shall have been selected for redemption, instead of issuing a replacement Bond, the Trustee may pay the same without surrender thereof). The Authority may require payment by the Owner of a sum not exceeding the actual cost of preparing each replacement Bond issued under this Section and of the expenses which may be incurred by the Authority and the Trustee. Any Bond of a Series issued under the provisions of this Section in lieu of any Bond of such Series alleged to be lost, destroyed or stolen shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation on the part of the Authority whether or not the Bond so alleged to be lost, destroyed or stolen be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture with all other Bonds of such Series secured by this Indenture.

Section 2.10 Book-Entry Bonds.
(a) Prior to the issuance of a Series of Bonds, the Authority may provide that such Series of Bonds shall initially be issued as Book-Entry Bonds and, in such event, the Bonds of such Series for each maturity shall be in the form of a separate single fully registered Bond (which may be typewritten). The Series 2026A Bonds shall initially be issued as Book-Entry Bonds.

Except as provided in subsection (c) of this Section, the registered Owner of all of the Book-Entry Bonds shall be Cede & Co., as nominee of DTC. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Indenture, payment of interest with respect to any Book-Entry Bond registered as of each Record Date in the name of Cede & Co. shall be made by wire transfer of same-day funds to the account of Cede & Co. on the Interest Payment Date at the address indicated on the Record Date for Cede & Co. in the Registration Books or as otherwise provided in the Representation Letter. (b) The Trustee and the Authority may treat DTC (or its nominee) as the sole and exclusive Owner of Book-Entry Bonds registered in its name for the purposes of payment of the principal, premium, if any, or interest with respect to Book-Entry Bonds, selecting Book-Entry Bonds or portions thereof to be redeemed, giving any notice permitted or required to be given to Owners of Book-Entry Bonds under this Indenture, registering the transfer of Book-Entry Bonds, obtaining any

Page 44 of 258 ends

15 4934-8775-8758v3/200907-0004
consent or other action to be taken by Owners of Book-Entry Bonds and for all other purposes whatsoever, and neither the Trustee nor the Authority shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

Neither the Trustee nor the Authority shall have any responsibility or obligation to any Participant, any person claiming a beneficial ownership interest in Book-Entry Bonds under or through DTC or any Participant, or any other person which is not shown on the Registration Books as being an Owner, with respect to the accuracy of any records maintained by DTC or any Participant, the payment by DTC or any Participant of any amount in respect of the principal, premium, if any, or interest with respect to Book-Entry Bonds, any notice which is permitted or required to be given to Owners of Book-Entry Bonds under this Indenture, the selection by DTC or any Participant of any person to receive payment in the event of a partial redemption of Book-Entry Bonds, or any consent given or other action taken by DTC as Owner of Book-Entry Bonds. The Trustee shall pay all principal, premium, if any and interest with respect to Book-Entry Bonds, only to DTC, and all such payments shall be valid and effective to fully satisfy and discharge the Authority’s obligations with respect to the principal, premium, if any, and interest with respect to the Book-Entry Bonds to the extent of the sum or sums so paid. Except under the conditions of subsection (c) of this Section, no person other than DTC shall receive an executed Book-Entry Bond for each separate stated maturity. Upon delivery by DTC to the Trustee of written notice to the effect that DTC has determined to substitute a new nominee in place of Cede & Co., and subject to the provisions herein with respect to record dates, the term “Cede & Co.” in this Indenture shall refer to such new nominee of DTC. (c) In the event (i) DTC, including any successor as securities depository for a Series of Bonds, determines not to continue to act as securities depository for such Series of Bonds, or (ii) the Authority determines that the incumbent securities depository shall no longer so act, and delivers a written certificate to the Trustee to that effect, then the Authority will discontinue the book- entry system with the incumbent securities depository for such Series of Bonds. If the Authority determines to replace the incumbent securities depository for such Series of Bonds with another qualified securities depository, the Authority shall prepare or direct the preparation of a new single, separate fully registered Bond of such Series for the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Bonds of such Series of each maturity, registered in the name of such successor or substitute qualified securities depository, or its nominee, or make such other arrangement acceptable to the Authority, the Trustee and the successor securities depository for the Bonds of such Series as are not inconsistent with the terms of this Indenture. If the Authority fails to identify another qualified successor securities depository for such Series of Bonds to replace the incumbent securities depository, then the Bonds of such Series shall no longer be restricted to being registered in the Registration Books in the name of the incumbent securities depository or its nominee, but shall be registered in whatever name or names the incumbent securities depository for such Series of Bonds, or its nominee, shall designate. In such event the Authority shall execute, and deliver to the Trustee, a sufficient quantity of Bonds of such Series to carry out the transfers and exchanges provided in Sections 2.04, 2.08 and 2.09 hereof. All such Bonds of such Series shall be in fully registered form in Authorized Denominations. (d) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture to the contrary, so long as any Book-Entry Bond is registered in the name of DTC, or its nominee, all payments with respect to the principal, premium, if any, and interest with respect to such Book-Entry Bond and all notices with respect to such Book-Entry Bond shall be made and given, respectively, as provided in the Representation Letter.
(e) In connection with any notice or other communication to be provided to Owners of Book-Entry Bonds pursuant to this Indenture by the Authority, the City or the Trustee with respect to any consent or other action to be taken by Owners, the Authority, the City or the Trustee, as

Page 45 of 258 ends

16 4934-8775-8758v3/200907-0004
the case may be, shall establish a record date for such consent or other action and give DTC notice of such record date not less than 15 calendar days in advance of such record date to the extent possible.

All Base Rental Payments shall be paid directly by the City to the Trustee, and if received by the Authority at any time shall be transferred by the Authority with the Trustee within one Business Day after the receipt thereof. All Base Rental Payments received by the Trustee shall be deposited by the Trustee in the Base Rental Payment Fund.

(1) Interest Fund. On the Business Day immediately preceding each Interest Payment Date, the Trustee shall transfer from the Base Rental Fund to the Interest Fund the amount, if any, necessary to cause the amount on deposit in the Interest Fund to be equal to the interest due on the Bonds on such Interest Payment Date. Moneys in the Interest Fund shall be used by the Trustee to pay interest due on the Bonds on each Interest Payment Date.
(2) Principal Fund. On the Business Day immediately preceding each June 1, commencing June 1, 2027, the Trustee shall transfer from the Base Rental Fund to the Principal Fund the amount, if any, necessary to cause the amount on deposit in the Principal Fund to be equal to the principal amount of the Bonds due on such June 1 either as a result of the maturity thereof or mandatory sinking fund redemption payments required to be made with respect thereto.

Section 5.03 Application of Net Insurance Proceeds. If the Property or any portion thereof shall be damaged or destroyed, subject to the further requirements of this Section, the City shall, as expeditiously as possible, continuously and diligently prosecute or cause to be prosecuted the repair or replacement thereof, unless the City elects not to repair or replace the Property or the affected portion thereof in accordance with the provisions hereof.

The Net Insurance Proceeds (other than Net Insurance Proceeds of rental interruption insurance), including the proceeds of any self-insurance, received on account of any damage or destruction of the Property or a portion thereof shall as soon as possible be deposited with the Trustee and be held by the Trustee in a special account and made available for and, to the extent necessary, shall be applied to the cost of repair or replacement of the Property or the affected portion thereof upon receipt of a Written Request of the City, together with invoices therefor. Pending such application, such proceeds may be invested by the Trustee as directed by the City in Permitted Investments that mature not later than such times moneys are expected to be needed to pay such costs of repair or replacement.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the City shall, within 60 days of the occurrence of the event of damage or destruction, notify the Trustee in writing as to whether the City intends to replace or repair the Property or the portions of the Property which were damaged or destroyed. If the City does intend to replace or repair the Property or portions thereof, the City shall deposit with the Trustee the full amount of any insurance deductible to be credited to the special account.

In the event of any damage to or destruction of the Property caused by one of the perils covered by the insurance required by Section 6.01(c) of the Lease Agreement which would result in an abatement of rental payments or any portion thereof pursuant to Section 3.06 thereof, then the City shall apply the Net Insurance Proceeds (other than Net Insurance Proceeds of rental interruption insurance), together with other legally available funds that the City elects to contribute, to the repair, reconstruction or replacement of the damaged or destroyed portions of the Property; provided, however, that the City shall not be required to repair or replace any portion of the Property pursuant to this Section 5.03 if such Net Insurance Proceeds, together with any other amounts held under this Indenture and any other legally available funds made available by the City at its election, are sufficient to prepay (i) all of the Outstanding Bonds, or (ii) a portion of the Outstanding Bonds such that the resulting Base Rental Payments under Section 4.01(a) in any Rental Period following such partial prepayment are sufficient to pay in such Rental Period the principal of and interest on all Bonds to remain Outstanding immediately after such partial redemption. If the City is not required to replace or repair the Property, or the affected portion thereof, or to use such amounts to redeem Bonds, in each case as set forth in this Section 5.03, then such proceeds (and rental interruption insurance proceeds not applied pursuant to the next paragraph) shall, if there is first delivered to the Trustee a Written Certificate of the City to the effect that the annual fair rental value of the Property after such damage or destruction, and after any repairs or replacements made as a result of such damage or destruction, is at least equal to 100% of the maximum amount of Base Rental Payments becoming due under the Lease Agreement in the then current Rental Period or any subsequent Rental Period and the fair replacement value of the Property after such damage or destruction is at least equal to the principal amount of the Outstanding Bonds, be paid to the City to be used for any lawful purpose.

Proceeds of rental interruption insurance shall be applied to the payment of Base Rental Payments to the extent of any abatement thereof pursuant to the Lease Agreement, and otherwise as directed by the City.

(a) if the City determines that the title defect giving rise to such proceeds has not substantially interfered with its use and occupancy of the Property and will not result in an abatement of Rental Payments payable by the City under the Lease Agreement, such proceeds shall be remitted to the City and used for any lawful purpose thereof; or (b) if the City determines that the title defect giving rise to such proceeds has substantially interfered with its use and occupancy of the Property and will result in an abatement of Rental Payments payable by the City under the Lease Agreement, then the Trustee shall immediately deposit such proceeds in the Redemption Fund and such proceeds shall be applied to the redemption of Bonds in the manner provided in subsection (a) of Section 4.01 hereof and the corresponding provisions of any Supplemental Indenture pursuant to which Additional Bonds are issued.

Section 5.05 Rebate Fund.
(a) Establishment. The Trustee shall establish a fund for the Bonds designated the “Rebate Fund” when required in accordance herewith. Absent an Opinion of Counsel that the exclusion from gross income for federal income tax purposes of interest on the Series 2026A Bonds will not be adversely affected, the Authority shall cause to be deposited in the Rebate Fund such amounts as are required to be deposited therein pursuant to this Section and the Tax Certificate. All money at any time deposited in the Rebate Fund shall be held by the Trustee in trust for payment to the United States Treasury. All amounts on deposit in the Rebate Fund for the Series 2026A Bonds shall be governed by this Section and the Tax Certificate, unless and to the extent that the Authority delivers to the Trustee an opinion of Bond Counsel that the exclusion from gross income for federal income tax purposes of interest on the Bonds will not be adversely affected if such requirements are not satisfied. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in the Tax Certificate, the Trustee: (1) shall be deemed conclusively to have complied with the provisions thereof if it follows all Written Requests of the Authority or Written Requests of the City; (2) shall have no liability or responsibility to enforce compliance by the Authority or the City with the terms of the Tax Certificate and shall not be deemed to have knowledge of the terms thereof; (3) may rely conclusively on the Authority’s or the City’s calculations and determinations and certifications relating to rebate matters; and (4) shall have no responsibility to independently make any calculations or determinations or to review the Authority’s or the City’s calculations or determinations thereunder. (i) Annual Computation. Within 55 days of the end of each fifth Bond Year (as such term is defined in the Tax Certificate), the Authority shall calculate or cause to be calculated the amount of rebatable arbitrage, in accordance with Section 148(f)(2) of the Code and Section 1.148-3 of the Treasury Regulations (taking into account any applicable exceptions with respect to the computation of the rebatable arbitrage, described, if applicable, in the Tax Certificate (e.g., the temporary investments exceptions of Section 148(f)(4)(B) and the construction expenditures exception of Section 148(f)(4)(C) of the Code), and taking into account whether the election pursuant to Section 148(f)(4)(C)(vii) of the Code (the “1½%

Page 54 of 258 ends

25 4934-8775-8758v3/200907-0004
Penalty”) has been made), for this purpose treating the last day of the applicable Bond Year as a computation date, within the meaning of Section 1.148-1(b) of the Treasury Regulations (the “Rebatable Arbitrage”). The Authority shall obtain expert advice as to the amount of the Rebatable Arbitrage to comply with this Section.
(ii) Annual Transfer. Within 55 days of the end of each fifth Bond Year, upon the Written Request of the Authority or Written Request of the City, an amount shall be deposited to the Rebate Fund by the Trustee from any Rental Payments legally available for such purpose (as specified by the Authority or the City in the aforesaid Written Request), if and to the extent required, so that the balance in the Rebate Fund shall equal the amount of Rebatable Arbitrage so calculated in accordance with clause (i) of this subsection (a). In the event that immediately following the transfer required by the previous sentence, the amount then on deposit to the credit of the Rebate Fund exceeds the amount required to be on deposit therein, upon Written Request of the Authority or Written Request of the City, the Trustee shall withdraw the excess from the Rebate Fund and then credit the excess to the Base Rental Payment Fund.
(iii) Payment to the Treasury. The Trustee shall pay, as directed by Written Request of the Authority, to the United States Treasury, out of amounts in the Rebate Fund:
(A) Not later than 60 days after the end of: (X) the fifth Bond Year; and (Y) each applicable fifth Bond Year thereafter, an amount equal to at least 90% of the Rebatable Arbitrage calculated as of the end of such Bond Year; and (B) Not later than 60 days after the payment of all of the Bonds, an amount equal to 100% of the Rebatable Arbitrage calculated as of the end of such applicable Bond Year, and any income attributable to the Rebatable Arbitrage, computed in accordance with Section 148(f) of the Code and Section 1.148-3 of the Treasury Regulations.

In the event that, prior to the time of any payment required to be made from the Rebate Fund, the amount in the Rebate Fund is not sufficient to make such payment when such payment is due, the Authority shall calculate or cause to be calculated the amount of such deficiency and deposit an amount received from any legally available source equal to such deficiency prior to the time such payment is due. Each payment required to be made pursuant to this subsection (a) shall be made to the Internal Revenue Service Center, Ogden, Utah 84201 on or before the date on which such payment is due, and shall be accompanied by Internal Revenue Service Form 8038-T (prepared by the Authority), or shall be made in such other manner as provided under the Code. (b) Disposition of Unexpended Funds. Any funds remaining in the Rebate Fund after redemption and payment of the Series 2026A Bonds and the payments described in subsection (a) above being made may be withdrawn by the Authority and utilized in any manner by the Authority. (c) Survival of Defeasance. Notwithstanding anything in this Section to the contrary, the obligation to comply with the requirements of this Section shall survive the defeasance or payment in full of the Series 2026A Bonds.

Permitted Investments acquired as an investment of moneys in any fund established under this Indenture shall be credited to such fund. For the purpose of determining the amount in any fund, all Permitted Investments credited to such fund shall be valued by the Trustee at the fair market value thereof, such valuation to be performed not less frequently than semiannually on or before each June 15 and December 15. In determining fair market value, the Trustee may use and rely conclusively on any generally recognized securities pricing service available to it (including brokers and dealers in securities).

The Trustee may act as principal or agent in the making or disposing of any investment. Upon the Written Request of the Authority, the Trustee shall sell or present for redemption any Permitted Investments so purchased whenever it shall be necessary to provide moneys to meet any required payment, transfer, withdrawal or disbursement from the fund to which such Permitted Investments is credited, and the Trustee shall not be liable or responsible for any loss resulting from any investment made or sold pursuant to this Section. For purposes of investment, the Trustee may commingle moneys in any of the funds and accounts established hereunder.

The Trustee may make any investments hereunder through the bond or investment department or trust investment department of the entity acting as Trustee hereunder, or those of such entity’s parent or any affiliate, and such entity, or its parent or affiliate, as applicable, shall be entitled to its normal, customary and reasonable compensation for such services.

The entity acting as Trustee hereunder, or any of its affiliates, may act as sponsor, advisor or manager in connection with any investments made by the Trustee hereunder and such entity, or its affiliate, as applicable, shall be entitled to its normal, customary and reasonable compensation for such services.

The Authority and the City acknowledge that, to the extent regulations of the Comptroller of the Currency or other applicable regulatory entity grant the Authority and the City the right to receive brokerage confirmations of security transactions as they occur, at no additional cost, the Authority and the City specifically waive receipt of such confirmations to the extent permitted by law.

(a) Private Activity. The City and the Authority will not take any action or refrain from taking any action or make any use of the proceeds of the Series 2026A Bonds or of any other moneys or property which would cause the Series 2026A Bonds to be “private activity bonds” within the meaning of Section 141 of the Code;

Page 58 of 258 ends

Section 6.09 Continuing Disclosure. The City will comply with and carry out all of the provisions of the Continuing Disclosure Certificate. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, failure of the City to comply with the Continuing Disclosure Certificate shall not constitute an event of default hereunder; provided, however, that the Trustee may (and, at the written direction of any Participating Underwriter or the holders of at least 25% of the aggregate principal amount of Outstanding Bonds, and upon being indemnified to its reasonable satisfaction therefor, shall) or any holder or Beneficial Owner of the Bonds may take such actions as may be necessary and appropriate to compel performance, including seeking mandate or specific performance by court order.

DEFAULT AND LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY

In each and every case during the continuance of an event of default, the Trustee may, and upon being indemnified to its reasonable satisfaction therefor, shall, upon notice in writing to the City and the Authority, exercise any of the remedies granted to the Authority under the Lease Agreement and, in addition, take whatever action at law or in equity may appear necessary or desirable to enforce its rights as assignee pursuant to the Assignment Agreement or to protect and enforce any of the rights vested in the Trustee or the Owners by this Indenture or by the Bonds, either at law or in equity or in bankruptcy or otherwise, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement or for the enforcement of any other legal or equitable right, including any one or more of the remedies set forth in Section 7.02 hereof.

A waiver of any default or breach of duty or contract by the Trustee shall not affect any subsequent default or breach of duty or contract or impair any rights or remedies on any such subsequent default or breach of duty or contract. No delay or omission by the Trustee to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any default or breach of duty or contract shall impair any such right or remedy or shall be construed to be a waiver of any such default or breach of duty or contract or an acquiescence therein, and every right or remedy conferred upon the Trustee by law or by this Article may be enforced and exercised from time to time and as often the Trustee shall deem expedient.

If any action, proceeding or suit to enforce any right or to exercise any remedy is abandoned or determined adversely to the Trustee or any Owner, then subject to any adverse determination, the Trustee, such Owner, the Authority and the City shall be restored to their former positions, rights and remedies as if such action, proceeding or suit had not been brought or taken.

THE TRUSTEE
Section 8.01 Employment of the Trustee. The Authority hereby appoints and employs the Trustee to receive, deposit and disburse the Base Rental Payments, to authenticate, deliver and transfer the Bonds and to perform the other functions contained herein, all in the manner provided herein and subject to the conditions and terms hereof. By executing and delivering this Indenture, the Trustee accepts the appointment and employment hereinabove referred to and accepts the rights and obligations of the Trustee provided herein, subject to the conditions and terms hereof. Other than when an event of default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee. In case an event of default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise, as a prudent man would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his own affairs. The Trustee hereby covenants and agrees that it will not encumber the Property.

Section 8.02 Duties, Removal and Resignation of the Trustee. The Authority shall remove the Trustee initially a party hereto and any successor thereto if at any time (a) requested to do so by an instrument or concurrent instruments in writing signed by the Owners of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of Bonds at the time Outstanding (or their attorneys duly authorized in writing), or (b) the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the following sentence, and shall appoint a successor Trustee. The Trustee and any successor Trustee shall be: (i) a national banking association in good standing authorized to exercise trust powers or having the powers of a trust company and duly authorized to exercise trust powers within the State having a combined capital and surplus of at least $250,000,000, and subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authority, or (ii) a state-chartered commercial bank that is a member of the Federal Reserve System having at least $1,000,000,000 of assets. No removal, resignation or termination of the Trustee shall take effect until a successor, meeting the requirements above is qualified and appointed. If such entity publishes a report of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of any supervising or examining authority above referred to, then for the purposes of this Section the combined capital and surplus of such entity shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published.

The Trustee may at any time resign by giving written notice of such resignation to the Authority and the City and by giving notice, by first class mail, postage prepaid, of such resignation to the Owners at their addresses appearing on the Registration Books. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Authority shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee by an instrument in writing; provided, however, that in the event the Authority does not appoint a successor Trustee within 30 days following receipt of such notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee may, at the expense of the Authority, petition the appropriate court having jurisdiction to appoint a successor Trustee. Any resignation or removal of a Trustee and appointment of a successor Trustee shall become effective only upon acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee.

33 4934-8775-8758v3/200907-0004
Any corporation, association or agency into which the Trustee may be converted or merged, or with which it may be consolidated, or to which it may sell or transfer its corporate trust business and assets as a whole or substantially as a whole, or any corporation or association resulting from any such conversion, sale, merger, consolidation or transfer to which it is a party, provided that such entity meets the combined capital and surplus requirements of this Section, ipso facto, shall be and become successor trustee under this Indenture and vested with all the trusts, powers, discretions, immunities, privileges and all other matters as was its predecessor, without the execution or filing of any instrument or any further act, deed or conveyance on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding.

Section 8.03 Compensation of the Trustee. The City shall from time to time, subject to any written agreement then in effect with the Trustee, pay the Trustee reasonable compensation for all its services rendered hereunder and reimburse the Trustee for all its reasonable advances and expenditures (which shall not include “overhead expenses” except as such expenses are included as a component of the Trustee’s stated annual fees) hereunder, including but not limited to advances to and reasonable fees and reasonable expenses of accountants, agents, appraisers, consultants or other experts, and counsel not directly employed by the Trustee but an attorney or firm of attorneys retained by the Trustee, employed by it in the exercise and performance of its rights and obligations hereunder.

The Trustee may take whatever legal actions are lawfully available to it directly against the Authority or the City.

The City shall, to the extent permitted by law, indemnify and save the Trustee harmless against any liabilities, costs, claims or expenses, including those of its attorneys, which it may incur in the exercise and performance of its powers and duties hereunder, under the Lease Agreement, or in connection with any document or transaction contemplated hereunder or thereunder, including the enforcement of any remedies and the defense of any suit, and which are not due to its negligence or its misconduct. The duty of the City to indemnify the Trustee shall survive the termination and discharge of this Indenture and the earlier removal or resignation of the Trustee.

No provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers hereunder.

Upon an Event of Default, and only upon an Event of Default, the Trustee shall have a first lien with right of payment prior to payment on account of principal of and premium, if any, and interest on any Bond, upon the trust estate for the foregoing fees, charges and expenses incurred by it. When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after the occurrence of an Event of Default, such expenses and the compensation for such services are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency, arrangement, moratorium, reorganization or other debtor relief law.

Section 8.04 Protection of the Trustee. The Trustee shall be protected and shall incur no liability in acting or proceeding in good faith upon any affidavit, bond, certificate, consent, notice, request, requisition, resolution, statement, telegram, voucher, waiver or other paper or document which it shall in good faith believe to be genuine and to have been adopted, executed or delivered by the proper party or pursuant to any of the provisions hereof, and the Trustee shall be under no duty to make any investigation or inquiry as to any statements contained or matters referred to in any such instrument, but may accept and rely upon the same as conclusive evidence of the truth and accuracy of such statements. The Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested

Page 63 of 258 ends

34 4934-8775-8758v3/200907-0004

The Trustee may consult with counsel, who may be counsel to the Authority or the City, with regard to legal questions, and the opinion of such counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect to any action taken or suffered by it hereunder in good faith in accordance therewith.

The Trustee shall not be responsible for the sufficiency of the Bonds or the Lease Agreement, or of the assignment made to it by the Assignment Agreement, or for statements made in any preliminary or final official statement relating to the Bonds, or of the title to the Property.

Whenever in the administration of its rights and obligations hereunder the Trustee shall deem it necessary or desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking or suffering any action hereunder, such matter (unless other evidence in respect thereof be herein specifically prescribed) may be deemed to be conclusively proved and established by a Written Certificate of the City or a Written Certificate of the Authority, and such certificate shall be full warrant to the Trustee for any action taken or suffered under the provisions hereof upon the faith thereof, but in its discretion the Trustee may, in lieu thereof, accept other evidence of such matter or may require such additional evidence as it deems reasonable.

The Trustee may buy, sell, own, hold and deal in any of the Bonds and may join in any action which any Owner may be entitled to take with like effect as if the Trustee were not a party hereto. The Trustee, either as principal or agent, may also engage in or be interested in any financial or other transaction with the Authority or the City, and may act as agent, depository or trustee for any committee or body of Owners or of owners of obligations of the Authority or the City as freely as if it were not the Trustee hereunder.

The Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made by it in good faith unless it shall be proved that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts.

35 4934-8775-8758v3/200907-0004
take such action unless it has been indemnified to its reasonable satisfaction against all risk or liability arising from such action.

The Trustee’s rights to immunities and protection from liability hereunder and its rights to payment of its fees and expenses shall survive its resignation or removal and final payment or defeasance of the Bonds.

All indemnifications and releases from liability granted herein to the Trustee shall extend to the directors, officers, employees and agents of the Trustee.

The permissive right of the Trustee to do things enumerated in this Indenture shall not be construed as a duty, and the Trustee shall not be answerable for other than its negligence or willful default. The Trustee shall have no responsibility or liability with respect to any information, statements or recitals in any offering memorandum or other disclosure material prepared or distributed with respect to the issuance of these Bonds. The Trustee shall not be accountable for the use or application by the Borrower of any of the Bonds or the proceeds thereof or for the use or application of any money paid over by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture or for the use and application of money received by any paying agent.

The Trustee agrees to accept and act upon instructions or directions pursuant to this Indenture sent by unsecured e-mail, facsimile transmission or other similar unsecured electronic methods; provided, however, that the Trustee shall have received an incumbency certificate listing persons designated to give such instructions or directions and containing specimen signatures of such designated persons, which such incumbency certificate shall be amended and replaced whenever a person is to be added or deleted from the listing. If the Authority or the City elects to give the Trustee e-mail or facsimile instructions (or instructions by a similar electronic method) and the Trustee in its discretion elects to act upon such instructions, the Trustee’s understanding of such instructions shall be deemed controlling. The Trustee shall not be liable for any losses, costs or expenses arising directly or indirectly from the Trustee’s reliance upon and compliance with such instructions notwithstanding such instructions conflict or are inconsistent with a subsequent written instruction. The Authority and the City agree to assume all risks arising out of the use of such electronic methods to submit instructions and directions to the Trustee, including, without limitation, the risk of the Trustee acting on unauthorized instructions, and the risk of interception and misuse by third parties.

In acting or omitting to act pursuant to the Lease Agreement or Ground Lease, the Trustee shall be entitled to all of the rights, immunities and indemnities accorded to it under this Indenture and the Lease Agreement, including, but not limited to, this Article VIII.

Subject to the limitations and upon payment of the charges, if any, provided in the Indenture, fully registered Series 2026A Bonds may be exchanged at the Office of the Trustee for a like aggregate principal amount and maturity of fully registered Series 2026A Bonds of other authorized denominations.

This Bond is transferable by the Registered Owner hereof, in person or by his duly authorized attorney, but only in the manner, subject to the limitations and upon payment of the charges provided in the Indenture, and upon surrender and cancellation of this Bond. Upon such transfer a new fully registered Series 2026A Bond or 2026A Bonds, in Authorized Denominations, for the same aggregate principal amount will be issued to the transferee in exchange herefor. The Authority, the City and the Trustee may treat the Registered Owner hereof as the absolute owner hereof for all purposes, and the Authority, the City and the Trustee shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary.

The Indenture and the rights and obligations of the Authority, the City, the owners of the Bonds and the Trustee may be modified or amended from time to time and at any time in the manner, to the extent, and upon the terms provided in the Indenture; provided that no such modification or amendment shall (a) extend the fixed maturity of any Bonds, or reduce the principal thereof or the rate of interest thereon, or extend the time of payment, without the consent of the owner of each Bond so affected, or, (b) reduce the percentage of Bonds the consent of the owners of which is required to effect any such amendment or modification, or (c) permit the creation of any lien on the Base Rental Payments and other assets pledged under the Indenture prior to or on a parity with the lien created by the Indenture or deprive the owners of the Bonds of the lien created by the Indenture on such the Base Rental Payments and such other assets (except as expressly provided in the Indenture), without the consent of the owners of all Bonds then outstanding.

The Indenture contains provisions permitting the Authority to make provision for the payment of interest on, and the principal and premium, if any, of any of the Bond so that such Bonds shall no longer be deemed to be outstanding under the terms of the Indenture.

All obligations of the Authority under the Indenture and under the Bonds shall be special obligations of the Authority, payable solely from Rental Payments and the other assets pledged therefor under the Indenture. Neither the faith and credit nor the taxing power of the Authority, the City or the State of California, or any political subdivision thereof, is pledged to the payment of the Bonds.

Page 99 of 258 ends

5 4939-1472-7334v3/200907-0004
The obligation of the City to make the Base Rental Payments does not constitute a debt of the City or of the State of California, or of any political subdivision thereof, within the meaning of any constitutional or statutory debt limit or restriction, and does not constitute an obligation for which the City or the State of California is obligated to levy or pledge any form of taxation or for which the City or the State of California has levied or pledged any form of taxation. (b) If the term of this Lease Agreement shall have been extended pursuant to Section 2.02 hereof, the obligation of the City to pay Rental Payments shall continue to and including the Base Rental Deposit Date preceding the date of termination of this Lease Agreement (as so extended pursuant to Section 2.02 hereof). Upon such extension, the Base Rental Payments shall be established so that they will be sufficient to pay all extended and unpaid Base Rental Payments; provided, however, that the Rental Payments payable in any Rental Period shall not exceed the annual fair rental value of the Property.

Section 3.02 Additional Rental Payments. The City shall also pay, as Additional Rental Payments, such amounts as shall be required for the payment of the following:
(a) all taxes and assessments of any type or nature charged to the Authority or the City or affecting the Property or the respective interests or estates of the Authority or the City therein; (b) all reasonable administrative costs of the Authority relating to the Property including, but without limiting the generality of the foregoing, salaries, wages, fees and expenses, compensation and indemnification of the Trustee payable by the Authority under the Indenture, fees of auditors, accountants, attorneys or engineers, and all other necessary and reasonable administrative costs of the Authority or charges required to be paid by it in order to maintain its existence or to comply with the terms of the Indenture or the Lease Agreement or to defend the Authority and its members, officers, agents and employees;

Amounts constituting Additional Rental Payments payable hereunder shall be paid by the City directly to the person or persons to whom such amounts shall be payable. The City shall pay all such amounts when due or at such later time as such amounts may be paid without penalty or, in any other case, within 60 days after notice in writing from the Trustee to the City stating the amount of Additional Rental Payments then due and payable and the purpose thereof.

Section 3.03 Fair Rental Value. The parties hereto have agreed and determined that the annual fair rental value of the Property is not less than the maximum annual Rental Payments due in any year. In making such determination of fair rental value, consideration has been given to the uses and purposes that may be served by the Property and the benefits therefrom which will accrue to the City and the general public. Payments of the Rental Payments for the Property during each Rental Period shall constitute the total rental for said Rental Period.

Each installment of Base Rental Payments payable hereunder shall be paid in lawful money of the United States of America to or upon the order of the Authority at the principal office of the Trustee in Los Angeles, California, or such other place or entity as the Authority or Trustee shall designate. Each Base Rental Payment shall be deposited with the Trustee no later than the Base Rental Deposit Date preceding the Interest Payment Date on which such Base Rental Payment is due. Any Base Rental Payment which shall not be paid by the City when due and payable under the terms of this Lease Agreement shall bear interest from the date when the same is due hereunder until the same shall be paid at the rate equal to the highest rate of interest on any of the Outstanding Bonds. Notwithstanding any dispute between the Authority and the City, the City shall make all Rental Payments when due without deduction or offset of any kind and shall not withhold any Rental Payments pending the final resolution of such dispute. In the event of a determination that the City was not liable for said Rental Payments or any portion thereof, said payments or excess of payments, as the case may be, shall be credited against subsequent Rental Payments due hereunder or refunded at the time of such determination. Amounts required to be deposited by the City with the Trustee pursuant to this Section on any date shall be reduced to the extent of available amounts on deposit in the Base Rental Payment Fund, the Interest Fund or the Principal Fund.

Section 3.05 Appropriations Covenant. The City covenants to take such action as may be necessary to include all Rental Payments due hereunder as a separate line item in its annual budgets and to make necessary annual appropriations for all such Rental Payments. The City will deliver to the Authority and the Trustee a Certificate of the City stating that its final annual budget includes all Base Rental Payments due in such fiscal year within ten days after the filing or adoption thereof. The covenants on the part of the City herein contained shall be deemed to be and shall be construed to be duties imposed by law and it shall be the duty of each and every public official of the City to take such action and do such things as are required by law in the performance of the official duty of such officials to enable the City to carry out and perform the covenants and agreements in this Lease Agreement agreed to be carried out and performed by the City.

Section 3.06 Rental Abatement. Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Section, during any period in which, by reason of material damage to, or destruction or condemnation of, the Property, or any defect in title to the Property, there is substantial interference with the City’s right to use and occupy any portion of the Property, Rental Payments shall be abated proportionately, and the City waives the benefits of Civil Code Sections 1932(1), 1932(2) and 1933(4) and any and all other rights to terminate the Lease Agreement by virtue of any such interference, and the Lease Agreement shall continue in full force and effect. The amount of such abatement shall be agreed upon by the City and the Authority; provided, however, that the Rental Payments due for any Rental Period shall not exceed the annual fair rental value of that portion of the Property available for use and occupancy by the City during such Rental Period. The City and the Authority shall calculate such abatement and shall provide the Trustee with a certificate setting forth such calculation and the basis therefor. Such abatement shall continue for the period commencing with the date of interference resulting from such damage, destruction, condemnation or title defect and, with respect to damage to or destruction of the Property, ending with the substantial completion of the work of repair or replacement of the Property, or the portion thereof so damaged or destroyed; and the term of this Lease Agreement shall be extended as provided in Section 2.02 hereof, except that the term shall in no event be extended beyond the Maximum Lease Term.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that moneys are available for the payment of Rental Payments in any of the funds and accounts established under the Indenture or proceeds of the rental interruption insurance required by section 6.01(d) hereof are available, Rental Payments shall

(a) Subject to Section 9.02 hereof, the City and any sublessee shall, at its own expense, or with the proceeds of Additional Bonds, have the right to make additions, modifications, and improvements to any portion of the Property if such improvements are necessary or beneficial for the use of such portion of the Property. All such additions, modifications and improvements shall thereafter comprise part of the Property and be subject to the provisions of this Lease Agreement.
