TO: Finance & Governance Committee
FROM: Betsy George, Chief Financial Officer, 805-200-5400, [email protected]
SUBJECT: Authorize Execution and Delivery of Schedule of Property to the Banc of America Master Equipment Lease/Purchase Agreement A-7667 for the Financing, and Leasing of Certain Equipment. (10/5/5)
RECOMMENDATION
That the Finance and Governance Committee recommend City Council adopt a resolution authorizing the execution and delivery of Schedules of Property to the Master Equipment Lease/Purchase Agreement not to exceed $3.3 million for the acquisition, financing and leasing of certain equipment for the public benefit within the terms provided herein; authorizing the execution and delivery of other documents required in connection therewith; and authorizing the taking of all other actions necessary to the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this resolution.
(Presentation will be live at the Consultant's request)
BACKGROUND
City Council authorized the purchase of three fire engines at the City Council meeting on January 18, 2022.
The total amount of approved Purchase Order #8457 was $2,603,358.21. In addition to the purchase cost of the vehicles, there is expected to be additional upfitting costs (estimated at $165,000 per vehicle). City staff purchased the vehicles the week of January 24th to avoid a 7% cost increase that would have taken effect on February 1, 2022. This saved the City $172,042.
While it was staff’s intention to recommend the purchase of these vehicles be financed through an equipment lease, there was not sufficient time to prepare the legal documents ahead of the February 1 cutoff to avoid the 7% cost increase. Accordingly, staff purchased the vehicles ahead of February 1 with the intention of recommending that City Council authorize entering into a financing and to reimburse the City for the upfront purchase cost.
The City conducted a Request for Proposal (RFP) process for banks to provide terms for an Equipment Lease/Purchase Agreement to fund the purchase of vehicles and trailers for the Environmental Resources Division of the Public Works Department (March 2, 2021 Council Meeting – Agenda Item No. L.4). After reviewing the responses to the RFP, Banc of America’s proposal offered the lowest interest cost to the City. In addition, the City has a positive prior relationship with Banc of America, the provider for the Master Equipment Lease Agreement A-7667 originally executed on April 8, 2014.
The Master Equipment Lease Purchase Agreement (“Master Lease”) operates similar to a line of credit. 7 Staff anticipates that funds to reimburse the City for the payment made in January 2022 will be drawn from this line of credit near the beginning of April 2022. Consistent with the City’s other equipment leases, staff will submit to Banc of America an additional reimbursement request to draw down from the line of credit when upfitting of the equipment has been purchased, delivered, or paid for. Staff anticipates that funds to reimburse the City for upfitting costs will be drawn from this line of credit in calendar year 2023. The current total projected cost of the fire engines is $3.1 million. Staff is requesting the Council authorize a not to exceed amount for the line of credit draw of $3.3 million. The difference of $200,000 is to cover the estimated $50,000 financing fees and $150,000 buffer for inflation of the upfitting costs.
STRATEGIC PRIORITIES
This agenda item supports Public Safety strategy. The purpose of the Public Safety strategy is to restore and modernize the delivery of public safety services to provide for the safety of our neighborhoods and health of our community.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
Equipment leases provide an option for the City to make critical equipment purchases under favorable financing conditions. In addition, this lease allows the City to finance equipment over the expected life of the equipment rather than fronting the cost. Appropriation of $345,000 in Fiscal Year 2021-22 for the first year’s lease payment was included in the annual budget (Project title: “Fire Engine Replacements - 3”; Project Number 222201) and future annual lease payments will be included in future budget requests related to Fund 101 (General Fund).
Banc of America has provided a fixed 10-year interest rate of 2.29% for the $3.3M financing. This equates to $195,000 payments every 6 months ($390,000 per fiscal year) through the final maturity of December 1, 2031.
GOOD FAITH ESTIMATES
The good faith estimates set forth herein are provided with respect to the 2022 Equipment Lease in accordance with California Government Code Section 5852.1. Such good faith estimates have been provided to the City by the Municipal Advisor.
Principal Amount. The Municipal Advisor has informed the City that, based on the City’s purchase agreements, financing plan, and current market conditions, its good faith estimate of the aggregate principal amount of the 2022 Equipment Lease is $3,300,000, (the “Estimated Principal Amount”).
True Interest Cost of the 2022 Equipment Lease. The Municipal Advisor has informed the City that, assuming that the Estimated Principal Amount of the 2022 Equipment Lease, and based on market interest rates prevailing at the time of preparation of such estimate, their good faith estimate of the true interest cost of the 2022 Equipment Lease is 2.29%.
Finance Charge of the 2022 Equipment Lease. The Municipal Advisor has informed the City that, assuming that the Estimated Principal Amount of the 2022 Equipment Lease, and based on market interest rates prevailing at the time of preparation of such estimate, their good faith estimate of the finance charge for the 2022 Equipment Lease, which means the sum of all fees and charges paid to third parties (or costs associated with the 2022 Equipment Lease), is $50,000.
Amount of Proceeds to be Received. The Municipal Advisor has informed the City that, assuming that the Estimated Principal Amount of the 2022 Equipment Lease, and based on market interest rates prevailing at the time of preparation of such estimate, their good faith estimate of the amount of proceeds expected to be received by the City for the 2022 Equipment Lease is $3,250,000. 8 Total Payment Amount. The Municipal Advisor has informed the City that, assuming that the Estimated Principal Amount of the 2022 Equipment Lease, and based on market interest rates prevailing at the time of preparation of such estimate, their 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 2022 Equipment Lease is $3,703,744, which excludes any reserves or capitalized interest paid or funded with proceeds of the 2022 Equipment Lease (which may offset such total payment amount).
The foregoing estimates constitute good faith estimates only as of February 15, 2022, and are based on market conditions prevailing at the time of preparation of such estimates. The actual principal amount of the 2022 Equipment Lease, 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 2022 Equipment Lease being different than the date assumed for purposes of such estimates, (b) the actual principal amount of 2022 Equipment Lease being different from the Estimated Principal Amount, (c) the actual amortization of the 2022 Equipment Lease being different than the amortization assumed for purposes of such estimates, (d) the actual market interest rates at the time of sale of the 2022 Equipment Lease 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 2022 Equipment Lease and the actual principal amount of the 2022 Equipment Lease will be determined by the City based on the timing of the need for proceeds of the 2022 Equipment Lease and other factors. The actual interest rates borne by the 2022 Equipment Lease will depend on market interest rates at the time of sale thereof. The actual amortization of the 2022 Equipment Lease will also depend, in part, on market interest rates at the time of sale thereof. Market interest rates are affected by economic, national, international and other factors beyond the control of the City, or the Municipal Advisor.

Section 2. 0 I. Representations and Covenants of Lessee. Lessee represents, covenants and warrants for the benefit of Lessor on the date hereof and as of the Commencement Date of each Lease as follows:
(a) Lessee is a political subdivision of the State within the meaning of Section 103(c) of the Code, duly organized and existing under the constitution and laws of the State, with full power and authority to enter into this Agreement and each Lease and the transactions contemplated hereby and to perform all of its obligations hereunder and under each Lease. (b) Lessee has duly authorized the execution and delivery of this Agreement and each Lease by proper action of its governing body at a meeting duly called, regularly convened and attended throughout by the requisite quorum of the members thereof, or by other appropriate official approval, and all requirements have been met and procedures have occurred in order to ensure the validity and enforceability of this Agreement and each Lease. (c) No event or condition that constitutes, or with the giving of notice or the lapse of time or both would constitute, an Event of Default exists at the date hereof. ( d) Lessee will do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its existence as a body corporate and politic. ( e) Lessee has complied with such public bidding requirements as may be applicable to this Agreement and each Lease and the acquisition by Lessee of the Equipment as provided in each Lease.
(f) During the Lease Term, the Equipment will be used by Lessee only for the purpose of performing essential governmental or proprietary functions of Lessee consistent with the permissible scope of Lessee's authority. Lessee does not intend to sell or otherwise dispose of the Equipment or any interest therein prior to the last Rental Payment (including all Renewal Terms) scheduled to be paid under each Lease.
(g) Lessee has kept, and throughout the Lease Term of any Lease shall keep, its books and records in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and practices consistently applied, and shall deliver to Lessor (i) annual audited financial statements (including (1) a balance sheet, (2) statement of revenues, expenses and changes in fund balances for budget and actual, (3) statement of cash flows and notes, and (4) schedules and attachments to the financial statements) within 270 days of its fiscal year end, (ii) such other financial statements and information as Lessor may reasonably request, and (iii) its annual budget for the following fiscal year when approved but not later than 30 days prior to its current fiscal year end. The financial statements described in subsection (i) shall be accompanied by an unqualified opinion of Lessee's auditor. Credit information relating to Lessee may be disseminated among Lessor and any of its affiliates and any of their respective successors and assigns. (h) Lessee has an immediate need for the Equipment listed on each Schedule and expects to make immediate use of the Equipment listed on each Schedule. Lessee's need for the 17 Equipment is not temporary and Lessee does not expect the need for any item of the Equipment to diminish during the Lease Term to such item.
(i) The payment of the Rental Payments or any portion thereof is not (under the terms of any Lease or any underlying arrangement) directly or indirectly (x) secured by any interest in property used or to be used in any activity carried on by any person other than a state or local governmental unit or payments in respect of such property; or (y) on a present value basis, derived from payments (whether or not to Lessee) in respect of property, or borrowed money, used or to be used in any activity carried on by any person other than a state or local governmental unit. The Equipment will not be used, directly or indirectly, in any activity carried on by any person other than a state or local governmental unit. No portion of the Equipment Costs for the Equipment will be used, directly or indirectly, to make or finance loans to any person other than Lessee. Lessee has not entered into any management or other service contract with respect to the use and operation of the Equipment. (i) There is no pending litigation, tax claim, proceeding or dispute that may adversely affect Lessee's financial condition or impairs its ability to perform its obligations hereunder.
Lessee will, at its expense, maintain its legal existence in good standing and do any further act and execute, acknowledge, deliver, file, register and record any further documents Lessor may reasonably request in order to protect Lessor's security interest in the Equipment and Lessor's rights and benefits under this Lease.
ARTICLE Ill
Section 3.01. Lease of Equipment. Subject to the terms of this Master Lease, Lessor agrees to provide the funds specified in each Lease to be provided by it to acquire the Equipment, up to an amount equal to the Maximum Equipment Cost. Upon the execution of each Lease, Lessor demises, leases, transfers and lets to Lessee, and Lessee acquires, rents and leases from Lessor, the Equipment as set forth in such Lease and in accordance with the terms thereof. The Lease Term for each Lease may be continued, solely at the option of Lessee, at the end of the Original Term or any Renewal Term for the next succeeding Renewal Term up to the maximum Lease Term set forth in such Lease. At the end of the Original Term and at the end of each Renewal Term until the maximum Lease Term has been completed, Lessee shall be deemed to have exercised its option to continue each Lease for the next Renewal Term unless Lessee shall have terminated such Lease pursuant to Section 3.03 or Section 10.01. The terms and conditions during any Renewal Term shall be the same as the terms and conditions during the Original Term, except that the Rental Payments shall be as provided in the applicable Lease.
Section 3. 02. Continuation of Lease Term. Lessee intends, subject to Section 3.03, to continue the Lease Term of each Lease through the Original Term and all Renewal Terms and to pay the Rental Payments thereunder. Lessee affirms that sufficient funds are available for the current fiscal year, and Lessee reasonably believes that an amount sufficient to make all Rental Payments during the entire Lease Term of each Lease can be obtained from legally available funds of Lessee. Lessee further intends to do all things lawfully within its power to obtain and maintain funds sufficient and available to discharge its obligation to make Rental Payments due hereunder, including making provision for such payments to the extent necessary in each budget or appropriation request submitted and adopted in accordance with applicable provisions of law, 18 to have such portion of the budget or appropriation request approved and to exhaust all available reviews and appeals in the event such portion of the budget or appropriation request is not approved.
Section 3. 03. Nonappropriation. Lessee is obligated only to pay such Rental Payments under each Lease as may lawfully be made from funds budgeted and appropriated for that purpose during Lessee's then current fiscal year. Should Lessee fail to budget, appropriate or otherwise make available funds to pay Rental Payments under any Lease following the then current Original Term or Renewal Term, such Lease or Leases shall be deemed terminated at the end of the then current Original Term or Renewal Term. Lessee agrees to deliver notice to Lessor of such termination promptly after any decision to non-appropriate is made, but failure to give such notice shall not extend the term beyond such Original Term or Renewal Term. If any Lease is terminated in accordance with this Section, Lessee agrees to peaceably deliver the Equipment to Lessor at the location(s) to be specified by Lessor.
Section 3.04. Conditions to Lessor's Performance.
(a) As a prerequisite to the performance by Lessor of any of its obligations pursuant to any Lease, Lessee shall deliver to Lessor the following:
(i) A fully completed Schedule, executed by Lessee;
(ii) An Acquisition Fund Agreement, executed by Lessee and the Acquisition Fund Custodian, unless Lessor pays 100% of the Acquisition Amount directly to the Vendor upon execution of the Lease;
(iii) A Certificate executed by the Clerk or Secretary or other comparable officer of Lessee, in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit C, completed to the satisfaction of Lessor;
(iv) A certified copy of a resolution, ordinance or other official action of Lessee's governing body authorizing the execution and delivery of this Lease and performance by Lessee of its obligations hereunder;
(v) An opinion of counsel to Lessee in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit D respecting such Lease and otherwise satisfactory to Lessor; (vi) Evidence of insurance as required by Section 7.02 hereof; (vii) All documents, including financing statements, affidavits, notices and similar instruments, in form satisfactory to Lessor, which Lessor deems necessary or appropriate at that time pursuant to Section 6.02;
(viii) A copy of a fully completed and executed Form 8038-G; (ix) If any Equipment units are motor vehicles, properly completed certificates of title for such vehicles; and
19 (x) Such other items, if any, as are set forth in such Lease or are reasonably required by Lessor.
(b) In addition, the performance by Lessor of any of its obligations pursuant to any Lease shall be subject to: (i) no material adverse change in the financial condition of Lessee since the date of this Lease, (ii) no Event of Default having occurred, and (iii) if no Acquisition Fund has been established, the Equipment must be accepted by Lessee no later than the date listed as the Utilization Period Expiration in the applicable Schedule. ( c) Subject to satisfaction of the foregoing, Lessor will pay the Acquisition Amount for Equipment described in a Schedule to the Vendor or, if authorized by Lessee's governing body, will reimburse Lessee for the prior payment of any such Acquisition Amounts by Lessee to the Vendor, upon receipt of the documents described in Sections 5.0l(a) and (b); or if an Acquisition Fund has been established pursuant to an Acquisition Fund Agreement, Lessor will deposit the Acquisition Amount for Equipment described in the Schedule with the Acquisition Fund Custodian.
( d) This Agreement is not a commitment by Lessor to enter into any Lease not currently in existence, and nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to impose any obligation upon Lessor to enter into any proposed Lease, it being understood that whether Lessor enters into any proposed Lease shall be a decision solely within Lessor's discretion. ( e) Lessee will cooperate with Lessor in Lessor's review of any proposed Lease.
Without limiting the foregoing, Lessee will provide Lessor with any documentation or information Lessor may request in connection with Lessor's review of any proposed Lease.
Such documentation may include, without limitation, documentation concerning the Equipment and its contemplated use and location and documentation or information concerning the financial status of Lessee and other matters related to Lessee.
ARTICLE IV
Section 4. 01. Rental Payments. Subject to Section 3.03, Lessee shall promptly pay Rental Payments, in lawful money of the United States of America, to Lessor on the dates and in such amounts as provided in each Lease. Lessee shall pay Lessor a charge on any Rental Payment not paid on the date such payment is due at a rate equal to the Contract Rate plus 5% per annum or the maximum amount permitted by law, whichever is less, from such date. Lessee shall not permit the federal government to guarantee any Rental Payments under any Lease.
Rental Payments consist of principal and interest payments as more fully detailed on each Schedule, the interest on which begins to accrue as of the Commencement Date for each such Schedule.
Section 4. 02. Interest and Principal Components. A portion of each Rental Payment is paid as, and represents payment of, interest, and the Balance of each Rental Payment is paid as, and represents payment of, principal. Each Lease shall set forth the principal and interest components of each Rental Payment payable thereunder during the Lease Term.
Section 4. 03. Rental Payments to Constitute a Current Expense of Lessee. Lessor and Lessee understand and intend that the obligation of Lessee to pay Rental Payments under each 20 Lease shall constitute a current expense of Lessee payable solely from its general fund or other funds that are legally available for that purpose and shall not in any way be construed to be a debt of Lessee in contravention of any applicable constitutional or statutory limitation or requirement concerning the creation of indebtedness by Lessee, nor shall anything contained herein or in a Lease constitute a pledge of the general tax revenues, funds or moneys of Lessee.
Section 4.04. Rental Payments to be Unconditional. Except as provided in Section 3.03, the obligations of Lessee to make Rental Payments and to perform and observe the other covenants and agreements contained in each Lease shall be absolute and unconditional in all events without abatement, diminution, deduction, set-off or defense, for any reason, including without limitation any failure of the Equipment, after it has been accepted by Lessee, any defects, malfunctions, breakdowns or infirmities in the Equipment or any accident, condemnation or unforeseen circumstances.
Section 4. 05. Tax Covenants.
(a) Lessee agrees that it will not take any action that would cause the interest component of Rental Payments to be or to become ineligible for the exclusion from gross income of the owner or owners thereof for federal income tax purposes, nor will it omit to take or cause to be taken, in timely manner, any action, which omission would cause the interest component of Rental Payments to be or to become ineligible for the exclusion from gross income of the owner or owners thereof for federal income tax purposes.
(b) In the event that Lessee does not spend the moneys in the Acquisition Fund within six (6) months of the date the deposit is made pursuant to Section 3.04(c), Lessee will, ifrequired by section 148(f) of the Code to pay rebate: (i) establish a Rebate Account and deposit the Rebate Amount (as defined in Section 1.148-3(b) of the Federal Income Tax Regulations) not less frequently than once per year after the applicable Commencement Date; and (ii) rebate to the United States, not less frequently than once every five (5) years after the applicable Commencement Date, an amount equal to at least 90% of the Rebate Amount and within 60 days after payment of all Rental Payments or the Purchase Price as provided in Section 10.0l(a) hereof, 100% of the Rebate Amount, as required by the Code and any regulations promulgated thereunder. Lessee shall determine the Rebate Amount, if any, at least every year and upon payment of all Rental Payments or the Purchase Price and shall maintain such determination, together with any supporting documentation required to calculate the Rebate Amount, until six ( 6) years after the date of the final payment of the Rental Payments or the Purchase Price.
Section 4. 06. Event of Taxability. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Taxability, the interest component shall be at a Taxable Rate retroactive to the date as of which the interest component is determined by the Internal Revenue Service to be includible in the gross income of the owner or owners thereof for federal income tax purposes, and Lessee will pay such additional amount as will result in the owner receiving the interest component at the Taxable Rate identified in the related Lease.
For purposes of this Section, "Event of Taxability" means a determination that the interest component is includible for federal income tax purposes in the gross income of the owner thereof due to Lessee's action or failure to take any action. 21 Section 4. 07. Mandatory Prepayment. If the Lease Proceeds are deposited into an Acquisition Fund, any funds remaining in the Acquisition Fund on or after the Acquisition Period and not applied to Equipment Costs, shall be applied by Lessor on the next Rental Payment date, pro rata to the prepayment of the principal component of the outstanding Rental Payments due under the applicable Schedule.
ARTICLEV
Section 5.01. Delivery, Installation and Acceptance of Equipment. (a) Lessee shall order the Equipment, cause the Equipment to be delivered and installed at the location specified in the Leases and pay any and all delivery and installation costs and other Equipment Costs in connection therewith. When the Equipment listed in any Lease has been delivered and installed, Lessee shall promptly accept such Equipment and evidence said acceptance by executing and delivering to Lessor an Acceptance Certificate in the form attached hereto as Exhibit E.
(b) Lessee shall deliver to Lessor original invoices and bills of sale (if title to such Equipment has passed to Lessee) relating to each item of Equipment accepted by Lessee. With respect to Equipment not purchased through an Acquisition Fund, Lessor shall, upon receipt of an Acceptance Certificate from Lessee, prepare a Schedule of Property and Rental Payment Schedule in the forms attached hereto as Exhibits B-1 and B-2. Lessee shall execute and deliver such Schedules to Lessor within 5 business days of receipt.
Section 5. 02. Quiet Enjoyment of Equipment. So long as Lessee is not in default under the related Lease, neither Lessor nor any entity claiming by, through or under Lessor, shall interfere with Lessee's quiet use and enjoyment of the Equipment during the Lease Term.
Section 5. 03. Location; Inspection. Once installed, no item of the Equipment will be relocated from the base location specified for it in the Lease on which such item is listed without Lessor's consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Lessor shall have the right at all reasonable times during regular business hours to enter into and upon the property of Lessee for the purpose of inspecting the Equipment.
Section 5. 04. Use and Maintenance of the Equipment. Lessee will not install, use, operate, or maintain the Equipment improperly, carelessly, in violation of any applicable law or in a manner contrary to that contemplated by the related Lease. Lessee shall provide all permits and licenses, if any, necessary for the installation and operation of the Equipment. In addition, Lessee agrees to comply in all respects with all applicable laws, regulations and rulings of any legislative, executive, administrative, or judicial body; provided that Lessee may contest in good faith the validity or application of any such law, regulation or ruling in any reasonable manner that does not, in the opinion of Lessor, adversely affect the interest (including the reversionary interest) of Lessor in and to the Equipment or its interest or rights under the Lease.
Lessee agrees that it will maintain, preserve, and keep the Equipment in good repair and working order, in a condition comparable to that recommended by the manufacturer. Lessor shall have no responsibility to maintain, repair or make improvements or additions to the Equipment. In all cases, Lessee agrees to pay any costs necessary for the manufacturer to re- 22 certify the Equipment as eligible for manufacturer's maintenance upon the return of the Equipment to Lessor as provided for herein.
Lessee shall not alter any item of Equipment or install any accessory, equipment or device on an item of Equipment if that would impair any applicable warranty, the originally intended function or the value of that Equipment. All repairs, parts, accessories, equipment and devices furnished, affixed to or installed on any Equipment, excluding temporary replacements, shall thereupon become subject to the security interest of Lessor.
ARTICLE VI
Section 6.01. Title to the Equipment. During each Lease Term, and so long as Lessee is not in default under Article XII hereof, all right, title and interest in and to each item of the Equipment shall be vested in Lessee immediately upon its acceptance of each item of Equipment, subject to the terms and conditions of the applicable Lease. Lessee shall at all times protect and defend, at its own cost and expense, its title in and to the Equipment from and against all claims, liens and legal processes of its creditors, and keep all Equipment free and clear of all such claims, liens and processes. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default or upon termination of a Lease pursuant to Section 3.03 hereof, full and unencumbered legal title to the Equipment shall pass to Lessor, and Lessee shall have no further interest therein. In addition, upon the occurrence of such an Event of Default or such termination, Lessee shall execute and deliver to Lessor such documents as Lessor may request to evidence the passage of such legal title to Lessor and the termination of Lessee's interest therein, and upon request by Lessor shall deliver possession of the Equipment to Lessor in accordance with Section 12.02. Upon purchase of the Equipment under a Lease by Lessee pursuant to Section 10.01, Lessor's security interest or other interest in the Equipment shall terminate, and Lessor shall execute and deliver to Lessee such documents as Lessee may request to evidence the termination of Lessor's security interest in the Equipment subject to the related Lease.
Section 6. 02. Security Interest. To secure the payment of all of Lessee's obligations under each Lease, upon the execution of such Lease, Lessee grants to Lessor a security interest constituting a first lien on (a) the Equipment applicable to such Lease, (b) moneys and invest ments held from time to time in the Acquisition Fund and ( c) any and all proceeds of any of the foregoing. Lessee agrees to execute and authorizes Lessor to file such notices of assignment, chattel mortgages, financing statements and other documents, in form satisfactory to Lessor, which Lessor deems necessary or appropriate to establish and maintain Lessor's security interest in the Equipment, the Acquisition Fund and the proceeds thereof.
Section 6. 03. Personal Property. The Equipment is and will remain personal property and will not be deemed to be affixed to or a part of the real estate on which it may be situated, notwithstanding that the Equipment or any part thereof may be or hereafter become in any manner physically affixed or attached to real estate or any building thereon. Upon the request of Lessor, Lessee will, at Lessee's expense, furnish a waiver of any interest in the Equipment from any party having an interest in any such real estate or building. 23 ARTICLE VII
Section 7. OJ. Liens, Taxes, Other Governmental Charges and Utility Charges. Lessee shall keep the Equipment free of all levies, liens, and encumbrances except those created by each Lease. The parties to this Agreement contemplate that the Equipment will be used for a govern mental or proprietary purpose of Lessee and that the Equipment will therefore be exempt from all property taxes. If the use, possession or acquisition of any Equipment is nevertheless determined to be subject to taxation, Lessee shall pay when due all taxes and governmental charges lawfully assessed or levied against or with respect to such Equipment. Lessee shall pay all utility and other charges incurred in the use and maintenance of the Equipment. Lessee shall pay such taxes or charges as the same may become due; provided that, with respect to any such taxes or charges that may lawfully be paid in installments over a period of years, Lessee shall be obligated to pay only such installments as accrue during each Lease Term.
Section 7.02. Insurance. Lessee shall during each Lease Term maintain or cause to be maintained (a) casualty insurance naming Lessor and its assigns as loss payee and insuring the Equipment against loss or damage by fire and all other risks covered by the standard extended coverage endorsement then in use in the State, and any other risks reasonably required by Lessor, in an amount at least equal to the then applicable Purchase Price of the Equipment; (b) liability insurance naming Lessor as additional insured that protects Lessor from liability in all events in form and amount satisfactory to Lessor; and (c) worker's compensation coverage as required by the laws of the State; provided that, with Lessor's prior written consent, Lessee may self-insure against the risks described in clause (a). Lessee shall furnish to Lessor evidence of such insurance or self-insurance coverage throughout each Lease Term. Lessee shall not cancel or modify such insurance or self-insurance coverage in any way that would affect the interests of Lessor without first giving written notice thereof to Lessor at least 30 days in advance of such cancellation or modification.
Section 7. 03. Risk of Loss. Whether or not covered by insurance or self-insurance, Lessee hereby assumes all risk of loss of, or damage to and liability related to injury or damage to any persons or property arising from the Equipment from any cause whatsoever, and no such loss of or damage to or liability arising from the Equipment shall relieve Lessee of the obligation to make the Rental Payments or to perform any other obligation under this Lease. Whether or not covered by insurance or self-insurance, Lessee hereby agrees to reimburse Lessor (to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, but only from legally available funds) for any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, costs, claims, taxes or damages suffered or incurred by Lessor, regardless of the cause thereof and all expenses incurred in connection therewith (including, without limitation, counsel fees and expenses, and penalties connected therewith imposed on interest received) arising out of or as a result of (a) entering into of this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby, (b) the ordering, acquisition, ownership use, operation, condition, purchase, delivery, acceptance, rejection, storage or return of any item the Equipment, ( c) any accident in connection with the operation, use, condition, possession, storage or return of any item of the Equipment resulting in damage to property or injury to or death to any person, and/or ( d) the breach of any covenant of Lessee in connection with a Lease or any material misrepresentation provided by Lessee in connection with a Lease. The provisions of this paragraph shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding the full payment of all 24 obligations under all Leases or the termination of the Lease Term under any Lease for any reason.
Section 7. 04. Advances, In the event Lessee shall fail to keep the Equipment in good repair and working order, Lessor may, but shall be under no obligation to, maintain and repair the Equipment and pay the cost thereof. All amounts so advanced by Lessor shall constitute additional rent for the then current Original Term or Renewal Term and Lessee covenants and agrees to pay such amounts so advanced by Lessor with interest thereon from the due date until paid at a rate equal to the Contract Rate plus 5% per annum or the maximum amount permitted by law, whichever is less.
ARTICLE VIII
Section 8.01. Damage, Destruction and Condemnation. Unless Lessee shall have exercised its option to purchase the Equipment by making payment of the Purchase Price as provided in the related Lease, if, prior to the termination of the applicable Lease Term, (a) the Equipment or any portion thereof is destroyed, in whole or in part, or is damaged by fire or other casualty or (b) title to, or the temporary use of, the Equipment or any part thereof shall be taken under the exercise or threat of the power of eminent domain by any governmental body or by any person, firm or corporation acting pursuant to governmental authority, Lessee and Lessor will cause the Net Proceeds of any insurance claim or condemnation award or sale under threat of condemnation to be applied to the prompt replacement, repair, restoration, modification or improvement of the Equipment. Any balance of the Net Proceeds remaining after such work has been completed shall be paid to Lessee.
If Lessee elects to replace any item of the Equipment (the "Replaced Equipment") pursuant to this Section, the replacement equipment (the "Replacement Equipment") shall be of similar type, utility and condition to the Replaced Equipment and shall be of equal or greater value than the Replaced Equipment. Lessor shall receive a first priority security interest in any such Replacement Equipment. Lessee shall represent, warrant and covenant to Lessor that each item of Replacement Equipment is free and clear of all claims, liens, security interests and encumbrances, excepting only those liens created by or through Lessor, and shall provide to Lessor any and all documents as Lessor may reasonably request in connection with the replacement, including, but not limited to, documentation in form and substance satisfactory to Lessor evidencing Lessor's security interest in the Replacement Equipment. Lessor and Lessee hereby acknowledge and agree that any Replacement Equipment acquired pursuant to this paragraph shall constitute "Equipment" for purposes of this Agreement and the related Lease.
Lessee shall complete the documentation of Replacement Equipment on or before the next Rental Payment date after the occurrence of a casualty event, or be required to exercise the Purchase Option with respect to the damaged equipment.
For purposes of this Article, the term "Net Proceeds" shall mean the amount remaining from the gross proceeds of any insurance claim or condemnation award or sale under threat of condemnation after deducting all expenses, including attorneys' fees, incurred in the collection thereof.
25 Section 8. 02. Insufficiency of Net Proceeds. If the Net Proceeds are insufficient to pay in full the cost of any repair, restoration, modification or improvement referred to in Section 8.01, Lessee shall either (a) complete such replacement, repair, restoration, modification or improvement and pay any costs thereof in excess of the amount of the Net Proceeds, or (b) pay or cause to be paid to Lessor the amount of the then applicable Purchase Price for the Equipment, and, upon such payment, the applicable Lease Term shall terminate and Lessor's security interest in the Equipment shall terminate as provided in Section 6.01 hereof. The amount of the Net Proceeds, if any, remaining after completing such repair, restoration, modification or improvement or after purchasing such Equipment and such other Equipment shall be retained by Lessee. If Lessee shall make any payments pursuant to this Section, Lessee shall not be entitled to any reimbursement therefor from Lessor nor shall Lessee be entitled to any diminution of the amounts payable under Article IV.
ARTICLE IX
Section 9. 01. Disclaimer of Warranties. Lessor makes no warranty or representation, either express or implied, as to the value, design, condition, merchantability or fitness for particular purpose or fitness for use of the Equipment, or any other warranty or representation, express or implied, with respect thereto and, as to Lessor, Lessee's acquisition of the Equipment shall be on an "as is" basis. In no event shall Lessor be liable for any incidental, indirect, special or consequential damage in connection with or arising out of this Agreement, any Lease, the Equipment or the existence, furnishing, functioning or Lessee's use of any item, product or service provided for in this Agreement or any Lease.
Section 9. 02. Vendor's Warranties. Lessor hereby irrevocably appoints Lessee its agent and attorney-in-fact during each Lease Term, so long as Lessee shall not be in default under the related Lease, to assert from time to time whatever claims and rights (including without limitation warranties) relating to the Equipment that Lessor may have against Vendor. Lessee's sole remedy for the breach of such warranty, indemnification or representation shall be against Vendor of the Equipment, and not against Lessor. Any such matter shall not have any effect whatsoever on the rights and obligations of Lessor with respect to any Lease, including the right to receive full and timely payments under a Lease. Lessee expressly acknowledges that Lessor makes, and has made, no representations or warranties whatsoever as to the existence or the availability of such warranties relating to the Equipment.
ARTICLEX
Section 10.01. Purchase Option. Lessee shall have the option to purchase all of the Equipment listed in a Lease, at the following times and upon the following terms:
(a) From and after the date specified in the related Schedule (the "Purchase Option Commencement Date"), on the Rental Payment dates specified in each Lease, upon not less than 30 days' prior written notice, and upon payment in full of the Rental Payments then due under such Lease plus the then applicable Purchase Price, which may include a prepayment premium on the unpaid balance as set forth in the applicable Schedule; or 26 (b) In the event of substantial damage to or destruction or condemnation of substantially all of the Equipment listed in a Lease, on the day specified in Lessee's notice to Lessor of its exercise of the purchase option (which shall be the earlier of the next Rental Payment date or 60 days after the casualty event) upon payment in full to Lessor of the Rental Payments then due under such Lease plus the then applicable Purchase Price; or ( c) Upon the expiration of the Lease Term, upon payment in full of all Rental Payments then due and all other amounts then owing under the Lease, and the payment of $1. 00 to Lessor.
After payment of the applicable Purchase Price, Lessee will own the related Equipment, and Lessor's security interests in and to such Equipment will be terminated.
ARTICLE XI
Section 11.01. Assignment by Lessor.
(a) Lessor's right, title and interest in and to Rental Payments and any other amounts payable by Lessee under any and all of the Leases, its security interest in the Equipment subject to each such Lease, and all proceeds therefrom may be assigned and reassigned in whole or in part to one or more assignees or subassignees by Lessor, without the necessity of obtaining the consent of Lessee; provided, that any such assignment, transfer or conveyance to a trustee for the benefit of owners of certificates of participation shall be made in a manner that conforms to any applicable State law. Nothing in this Section 11.01 shall be construed, however, to prevent Lessor from executing any such assignment, transfer or conveyance that does not involve funding through the use of certificates of participation within the meaning of applicable State law, including any such assignment, transfer or conveyance as part of a multiple asset pool to a partnership or trust; provided such certificates are sold only on a private placement basis ( and not pursuant to any "public offering") to a purchaser(s) who represent that (i) such purchaser has sufficient knowledge and experience in financial and business matters to be able to evaluate the risks and merits of the investment, (ii) such purchaser understands neither the Lease nor certificates will be registered under the Securities Act of 1933, (iii) such purchaser is either an "accredited investor" within the meaning of Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933, or a qualified institutional buyer within the meaning of Rule 144A, and (iv) it is the intention of such purchaser to acquire such certificates (A) for investment for its own account or (B) for resale in a transaction exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 193 3; provided further, that in any event, Lessee shall not be required to make Rental Payments, to send notices or to otherwise deal with respect to matters arising under a Lease with or to more than one individual or entity. (b) Unless to an affiliate controlling, controlled by or under common control with Lessor, no assignment, transfer or conveyance permitted by this Section 11.01 shall be effective until Lessee shall have received a written notice of assignment that discloses the name and address of each such assignee; provided, that if such assignment is made to a bank or trust company as trustee or paying agent for owners of certificates of participation, trust certificates or partnership interests with respect to the Rental Payments payable under a Lease, it shall thereafter be sufficient that Lessee receives notice of the name and address of the bank or trust company as trustee or paying agent. During each Lease Term, Lessee shall keep, or cause to be 27 kept, a complete and accurate record of all such assignments in form necessary to comply with Section 149 of the Code. Lessee shall retain all such notices as a register of all assignees and shall make all payments to the assignee or assignees designated in such register. Lessee shall not have the right to and shall not assert against any assignee any claim, counterclaim or other right Lessee may have against Lessor or the Vendor. Assignments in part may include without limitation assignment of all of Lessor's security interest in and to the Equipment listed in a particular Lease and all rights in, to and under the Lease related to such Equipment. The option granted in this Section may be separately exercised from time to time with respect to the Equipment listed in each Lease, but such option does not permit the assignment of less than all of Lessor's interests in the Equipment listed in a single Lease. ( c) If Lessor notifies Lessee of its intent to assign the Lease, Lessee agrees that it shall execute and deliver to Lessor a Notice and Acknowledgement of Assignment substantially in the form of Exhibit F attached to this Lease within five (5) business days after its receipt of such request.

(a) Failure by Lessee to pay any Rental Payment or other payment required to be paid under any Lease within 10 days of the date when due as specified herein; (b) Failure by Lessee to observe and perform any covenant, condition or agreement on its part to be observed or performed, other than as referred to in subparagraph (a) above, for a period of 30 days after written notice specifying such failure and requesting that it be remedied is given to Lessee by Lessor, unless Lessor shall agree in writing to an extension of such time prior to its expiration; provided that, if the failure stated in the notice cannot be corrected within the applicable period, Lessor will not unreasonably withhold its consent to an extension of such time if corrective action is instituted by Lessee within the applicable period and diligently pursued until the default is corrected;
( c) Any statement, representation or warranty made by Lessee in or pursuant to any Lease or its execution, delivery or performance shall prove to have been false, incorrect, misleading, or breached in any material respect on the date when made; (d) Any default occurs under any other agreement for borrowing money, lease financing of property or otherwise receiving credit under which Lessee is an obligor under which there is outstanding, owing or committed an aggregate amount of at least 10% of Lessee's aggregate current long- and short-term indebtedness, if such default consists of (i) the failure to pay any indebtedness when due or (ii) the failure to perform any other obligation thereunder and gives the holder of the indebtedness the right to accelerate the indebtedness; 28 ( e) Lessee shall (i) apply for or consent to the appointment of a receiver, trustee, custodian or liquidator of Lessee, or of all or a substantial part of the assets of Lessee, (ii) be unable, fail or admit in writing its inability generally to pay its debts as they become due, (iii) make a general assignment for the benefit of creditors, (iv) have an order for relief entered against it under applicable federal bankruptcy law, or (v) file a voluntary petition in bankruptcy or a petition or an answer seeking reorganization or an arrangement with creditors or taking advantage of any insolvency law or any answer admitting the material allegations of a petition filed against Lessee in any bankruptcy, reorganization or insolvency proceeding; or (f) An order, judgment or decree shall be entered by any court of competent jurisdiction, approving a petition or appointing a receiver, trustee, custodian or liquidator or Lessee or of all or a substantial part of the assets of Lessee, in each case without its application, approval or consent, and such order, judgment or decree shall continue unstayed and in effect for any period of 30 consecutive days.
Section 12. 02. Remedies on Default. Whenever any Event of Default exists, Lessor shall have the right, at its sole option without any further demand or notice, to take one or any combination of the following remedial steps:
(a) By written notice to Lessee, Lessor may declare all Rental Payments payable by Lessee pursuant to such Lease and other amounts payable by Lessee under such Lease to the end of the then current Original Term or Renewal Term to be due; (b) With or without terminating the Lease Term under such Lease, Lessor may enter the premises where the Equipment listed in such Lease is located and retake possession of such Equipment or require Lessee at Lessee's expense to promptly return any or all of such Equipment to the possession of Lessor at such place within the United States as Lessor shall specify, and sell or lease such Equipment or, for the account of Lessee, sublease such Equipment, continuing to hold Lessee liable, but solely from legally available funds, for the difference between (i) the Rental Payments payable by Lessee pursuant to such Lease and other amounts related to such Lease or the Equipment listed therein that are payable by Lessee to the end of the then current Original Term or Renewal Term, as the case may be, and (ii) the net proceeds of any such sale, leasing or subleasing (after deducting all expenses of Lessor in exercising its remedies under such Lease, including without limitation all expenses of taking possession, storing, reconditioning and selling or leasing such Equipment and all brokerage, auctioneer's and attorney's fees), subject, however, to the provisions of Section 3.03. The exercise of any such remedies respecting any such Event of Default shall not relieve Lessee of any other liabilities under any other Lease or the Equipment listed therein; and ( c) Lessor may take whatever action at law or in equity may appear necessary or desirable to enforce its rights under such Lease or as a secured party in any or all of the Equipment subject to such Lease.
Section 12.03. No Remedy Exclusive. No remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to Lessor is intended to be exclusive and every such remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given under a Lease now or hereafter existing at law or in equity.
No delay or omission to exercise any right or power accruing upon any default shall impair any 29 such right or power or shall be construed to be a waiver thereof, but any such right or power may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient. In order to entitle Lessor to exercise any remedy reserved to it in this Article it shall not be necessary to give any notice other than such notice as may be required in this Article.
Section 12. 04. Application of Moneys. Any net proceeds from the exercise of any remedy under this Agreement, including the application specified in Section 12.02(b)(ii) (after deducting all expenses of Lessor in exercising such remedies including without limitation all expenses of taking possession, storing, reconditioning and selling or leasing Equipment and all brokerage, auctioneer's or attorney's fees), shall be applied as follows:
(a) If such remedy is exercised solely with respect to a single Lease, Equipment listed in such Lease or rights thereunder, then to amounts due pursuant to such Lease and other amounts related to such Lease or such Equipment.
(b) If such remedy is exercised with respect to more than one Lease, Equipment listed in more than one Lease or rights under more than one Lease, then to amounts due pursuant to such Leases pro rata.

Re: Schedule of Property No. , dated , to Master
Equipment Lease/Purchase Agreement, dated as of April 8, 2014, between Banc of America Public Capital Corp., as Lessor, and City of Oxnard, California, as Lessee
Ladies and Gentlemen:
As legal counsel to City of Oxnard, California ("Lessee"), I have examined (a) an executed counterpart of a certain Master Equipment Lease/Purchase Agreement, dated as of April 8, 2014, and Exhibits thereto by and between Banc of America Public Capital Corp . . ("Lessor") and Lessee (the "Agreement") and an executed counterpart of Schedule of Property No. , dated , by and between Lessor and Lessee (the
"Schedule"), which, among other things, provides for the lease of certain property listed in the Schedule (the "Equipment") and a certain Acquisition Fund and Account Control Agreement among Lessor, Lessee, and as Acquisition Fund
Custodian, dated , (b) an executed counterpart of the ordinances or resolutions of Lessee which, among other things, authorize Lessee to execute the Agreement and the Schedule and ( c) such other opinions, documents and matters of law as I have deemed necessary in connection with the following opinions. The Schedule and the terms and provisions of the Agreement incorporated therein by reference together with the Rental Payment Schedule attached to the Schedule are herein referred to collectively as the "Lease", and the Lease and the Acquisition Fund and Account Control Agreement are referred to collectively as the "Transaction Documents."
Based on the foregoing, I am of the following opinions:
1. Lessee is a public body corporate and politic, duly organized and existing under the laws of the State, and [has a substantial amount of the following sovereign powers: (a) the power to tax, (b) the power of eminent domain, and ( c) police power] [is a political subdivision of a state within the meaning of Section 103( c) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code") and the obligations of Lessee under the Agreement will constitute an obligation of Lessee within the meaning of Section I03(a) of the Code, notwithstanding Section 103(b) of the Code].
2. Lessee has the requisite power and authority to lease and acquire the Equipment and to execute and deliver the Transaction Documents and to perform its obligations under the Lease.
#765386vlA (BAPCC/Gov't Entity Master Lease) D-1
40 3. The Lease has been duly authorized, approved, executed and delivered by and on behalf of Lessee and the Transaction Documents are valid and binding obligations of Lessee enforceable in accordance with their respective terms.
4. The authorization, approval, execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents and all other proceedings of Lessee relating to the transactions contemplated thereby have been performed in accordance with all open meeting laws, public bidding laws and all other applicable state or federal laws; and
5. There is no proceeding pending or threatened in any court or before any governmental authority or arbitration board or tribunal that, if adversely determined, would adversely affect the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents or the security interest of Lessor or its assigns, as the case may be, in the Equipment or other collateral thereunder.
[6. The portion of rentals designated as and constituting interest paid by Lessee and received by Lessor is excluded from Lessor's gross income for federal income tax purposes under Section 103 of the Code and is exempt from State of personal income taxes; and such interest is not a specific item of tax preference or other collateral for purposes of the federal individual or corporate alternative minimum taxes.] All capitalized terms herein shall have the same meanings as in the Transaction Documents unless otherwise provided herein. Lessor and its successors and assigns, and any counsel rendering an opinion on the tax-exempt status of the interest components of the Rental Payments, are entitled to rely on this opinion.
