Security and Sources of Payment of the 2025 Bonds
The 2025 Bonds, the 2023 Bonds an d any additional series of refunding Bonds are secured by a first pledge of all of the Special Taxes and other amounts deposited in the Special Tax Fund (except for moneys to be deposited in the Administrative Expense Account, and amounts in the Reserve Accounts which secure specific Series of Bonds). See “SECURITY FOR THE 2025 BONDS” and APPENDIX C – “SUMMARY OF CERTAIN PROVISIONS OF THE FISCAL AGENT AGREEMENT.” “Special Taxes” is defined in the Fiscal Agent Agreement to mean the special tax re quirement for facilities authorized to be levied by the District on parcels within the District in accordance with the Resolution of Change, the Act a nd the voter approval obtained at the September 13, 2022 modification election within the Distri ct and any additional special taxes authorized to be levied by the District from time to time that are pledged by the District to the repayment of the Bonds, together with the proceeds collected from the sale of property pur suant to the foreclosure provisions of the Fiscal Agent Agreement for the delinquency of such Special Taxes remaining after the payment of all the costs related to such foreclosure actions, including, but not limited to, all le gal fees and expenses, court costs, consultant and title insurance fees and expenses.

The 2025 Bonds were sized based on at least 110% coverage from the Special Taxes generated by Developed Property within the District (consisting of 776 lots, all of which have been issued building permits as of April 4, 2025), at Assigned rates pursuant to the Rate and Method (as defined herein), net of administrative costs, taking into account debt service of the 2023 Bonds. The Special Taxes are levied on current and future designated Developed Property at 100% of the Assigned rates for the first thirty years, with surplus amounts paying for pay-as-you-go authorized facilities.

The Special Taxes are levied by the District and collected by the San Bernardino County Treasurer-Tax Collector in the same manner and at the same time as ad valorem property taxes. The District has covenanted in the Fiscal Agent Agreement to cause fo reclosure proceedings to be commenced and prosecuted against parcels with delinquent Special Taxes under certain circumstances. For a more detailed description of the foreclosure covenant see “SECURITY FOR THE 2025 BONDS - Covenant to Commence Foreclosure Proceedings.” There is no assurance that the property within the District can be sold for the appraised or assessed values described herein, or for a price sufficient to pay the principal of a nd interest on the 2025 Bonds in the event of a default in payment of Special Taxes by the current landowners or future landowners within the District. See “SPECIAL RISK FACTORS — Appraised and Assessed Valuations; Value-to-Lien Ratios” and APPENDIX G — “APPRAISAL REPORT” herein.

The 2025 Bonds constitute Related Parity Bonds under the Fiscal Agent Agreement. See “SECURITY FOR THE BONDS – Special Tax Fund – 2023 Reserve Account.” Appraisal Report
An appraisal of a portion of the taxable property within the District, dated April 18, 2025 (the “Appraisal Report”), was prepared by Stephen G. White, MAI, Fulle rton, California (the “Appraiser”) in connection with issuance of the 2025 Bonds. The purpose of the Appraisal Report was to ascertain the “as is” market value of the fee simple estate as of the April 4, 2025 date of value of the appraisal of the taxable properties within the District with assessed valuations of less than $250,000. These properties comprise 355 of the 776 total residential lots that are being developed by the Developer within the six separate product types, which consisted cumulatively of 244 detached single-family homes owned by individual homeown ers, 26 completed homes owned by the Developer, 49 homes under construction owned by the Developer, and 36 finished lots or vacant lots owned by the Developer.

The remaining 421 lots with assessed valuations of over $250,000, are valued at the Fiscal Year 2024-25 assessed values and owned by individual homeowners, along with four completed model homes owned by the Developer.

Subject to the assumptions and limitations contained in the Appraisal Report, the Appraiser estimated that the fee simple interest in the 355 appraised lots, subject to the lien of the Special Taxes, had an estimated aggregate value of $167,660,000. The assessed value for the remaining 421 lots is $253,141,326. The combined appraised and assessed values of the 776 lots is $420,801,326.

The overall aggregate value-to-lien ratio based on th e estimated appraised and assessed values reported in the Appraisal Report, and the estimated 18,760,000 of the 2025 Bonds of $[18,760,000] * and outstanding 18,760,000 of the 2023 Bonds in the amount of $16,840,000, for a total 18,760,000 of $_____________, is 12.13 to 1.
*
There is no assurance that the property within the District can be sold for the appraised or assessed values described herein, or for a price sufficient to pay the principal of and inte rest on the 2025 Bonds in the event of a default in payment of Special Taxes by the current la ndowner or future landowners within the District. See “SPECIAL RISK FACTORS — Appraised and Assessed Valuations; Value-to-Lien Ratios” and APPENDIX G — “APPRAISAL REPORT” herein.

If less than all of the 2025 Bonds Outstanding are to be redeemed, the portion of any 2025 Bond of a denomination of more than $5,000 to be redeemed shall be in the principal amount of $5,000 or an integral multiple ther eof.

A certificate by the Fiscal Agent that notice of such redemption has been given as herein provided shall be conclusive as against all parties and the Owner shall not be entitled to show that he or she failed to receive notice of such redemption.

(d) Separate Funds; Reserve Account Deposit. The Su pplemental Fiscal Agent Agreement may provide for a separate Reserve Account securing such Series at a reserve requirement to be specified in the Supplemental Fiscal Agent Agreement, or, if the Supplemental Fiscal Agent Agreement specifies that the 2023 Reserve Account will act as a reserve for th e payment of the principal of, and interest and any premium on, such Series of Bonds (constituting Related Parity Bonds), the Supplemental Fiscal Agent Agreement will provide for an amount to be deposited into the 2023 Reserve Account of the Special Tax Fund so that the balance on deposit in the 2023 Reserve Account is increased to an amount at least equal to the 2023 Reserve Requirement fo llowing the issuance of such Series of Bonds; and an amount at least equal to the 2023 Reserve Requi rement will thereafter be maintained in the 2023 Reserve Account. Such deposit will be made as provided in the Supplemental Fiscal Agent Agreement providing for the issuance of such additional Seri es and may be made from the proceeds of the sale of such additional Series or from other funds.
(e) Certificates. The District will deliver to the Fiscal Agent a Certificate of Authorized Representative of the District certifying that the conditions preced ent to the issuance of such Series set forth in paragraphs (a) through (d) above have been satisfied.
(f) Opinion. An Opinion of Bond Counsel to the effect that execution of the Supplemental Fiscal Agent Agreement has been duly authorized by the Distri ct in accordance with the Fiscal Agent Agreement and that such Series, when duly executed by the District and authenticated and delivered by the Fiscal Agent, will be valid and binding obligations of the District.

The 2025 Bonds constitute an additional series of Bonds and Related Parity Bonds under the Fiscal Agent Agreement, the proceeds of which will be used to fund new projects for the District and not for refunding purposes.

Accordingly the District has complied with require ments (a) through (f) above, including a deposit of $1,280,700.01* from the proceeds of the 2025 Bonds, which when added to the amount on deposit in the 2023 Reserve Account of $1,248,937.49* equals the 2023 Reserve Account Requirement of $2,539,637.50,* as well as the following additional requirements under the Fiscal Agent Agreement:
(a) Aggregate Value-to-Lien. The aggregate CFD Value of all Taxable Property shall be at least three (3) times the sum of: (i) the aggregate principal amount of all Bonds then Outstanding, plus (ii) the aggregate principal amount of the additional Series proposed to be issued, plus (iii) the aggregate principal amount of any fixed assessment liens on the parcels in the CFD subject to the levy of Special Taxes, plus (iv) a portion of the aggregate principal amount of any and all other community facilities district bonds then outstanding and payable at least partially from special taxes to be levied on parcels of land within the CFD (the “Other District B onds”) equal to the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Other District Bonds multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the amount of

* Preliminary, subject to change.

15 297896962.3
special taxes levied for the Other District Bonds on parcels of land within the CFD subject to the Special Taxes, and the denominator of which is the total amount of special taxes levied for the Other District Bonds on all parcels of land against which such special taxes are le vied to pay the Other District Bonds based upon information from the mo st recent available Fiscal Year. CFD Value is defined in the Fiscal Agent Agreement as the valu e established by appraisal, assessed value or both of property subject to the special ta x. See “APPENDIX C - SUMMARY OF CERTAIN PROVISIONS OF THE FISCAL AGENT AGREEMENT” herein for the complete definition. (b) Aggregate Coverage. For each Fiscal Year afte r issuance of the proposed Series, the maximum amount of the Special Taxes that may be levied for such Fiscal Year under the Ordinance, the Fiscal Agent Agreement and any Supplemental Fiscal Agent Agreement on all parcels then classified as Taxable Property or to be classified as Taxable Property in the subsequent Fiscal Year not then delinquent in the payment of any prior or current years’ Special Taxes, less the Administrative Expense Requirement for each respective Fiscal Year, shall be at least 110% of the total Annual Debt Service of the then Outstanding Bonds and the prop osed Series of Bonds fo r each Bond Year that commences in each such Fiscal Year.

The District may also issue any other bonds or othe rwise incur debt secured by a pledge of the Special Taxes (other than the Special Taxes to be deposited into the Administrative Expense Account of the Special Tax Fund) which are subordinate to the pledge securing the 2023 Bonds and the 2025 Bonds.

SECURITY FOR THE 2025 BONDS
Pledge of Special Taxes
General. The Special Taxes are the primary security for repayment of the 2025 Bonds and the 2023 Bonds. The 2025 Bonds and the 2023 Bonds are secured by a first pledge of the Special Taxes and all moneys deposited in the Special Tax Fund (except for moneys to be deposited in the Administrative Expense Account and Reserve Accounts other than the 2023 Reserve Account). The Special Taxes and all moneys deposited into these funds (except as otherwise provided in the Fiscal Agent Agreement) are dedicated to the payment of the principal of, and interest and any premium on, the 2025 Bonds as provided in the Fiscal Agent Agreement and in the Act until all of the 2025 Bonds have been paid and retired or until moneys or Federal Securities have been set aside irrevocably for that purpose under th e Fiscal Agent Agreement. The Admi nistrative Expense Requirement is defined to mean for any Fiscal Year an amount equal to $30,000 for Fiscal Year 2023-24 escalating by two percent per each Fiscal Year thereafter.

So long as any Bonds issued under the Fiscal Agent Agreement are Outstanding, the District has covenanted in the Fiscal Agent Agreemen t to levy the Special Tax in an amo unt sufficient, together with other amounts on deposit in the Special Tax Fund and available for such purpose, to pay (1) the principal of and interest on the Bonds when due, (2) the Administrative Expen ses, and (3) any amounts required to replenish the 2023 Reserve Account of the Special Tax Fund to the 2023 R eserve Requirement or to replenish any other reserve account to the reserve requirement established under a Supplemental Fiscal Agent Agreement.

The Special Taxes will be levied by the District and collected by the San Bernardino County Treasurer- Tax Collector in the same manner and at the same time as ad valorem property taxes. In the event that the Special Taxes are not received when due, the only sources of funds available to pay the debt service on the 2025 Bonds are amounts held by the Fiscal Agent in the Special Tax Fund (other than the Administrative Expenses), including amounts held in the 2023 Reserve Account therein, and foreclosure proceeds resulting from the sale of delinquent parcels if and when available. In the event that delinquencies occur in the receipt of the Special Taxes within the District in any Fiscal Year, the District may increase its Special Tax levy in the following Fiscal Year up to the maximum amount permitted under the Ra te and Method of Apportionment of Special Taxes (the “Rate and

16 297896962.3
Method”) except for the 10% limit on residential properti es. Although the Special Tax levy may be increased, Special Taxes resulting from the increased levy will not become available to cure any delinquencies until actually collected. In addition, an increase in the Special Tax levy may adversely affect the ability or willingness of property owners to pay their Special Taxes. See “THE DISTRICT– Rate and Method of Apportionment of Special Taxes” herein for a description of the District’s pr ocedures for levying Special Taxes, and “SPECIAL RISK FACTORS” herein.

Special Taxes. The Fiscal Agent Agreement defines “Special Taxes” as the special tax requirement for facilities authorized to be levied by the District on par cels within the District in accordance with the Resolution of Formation, the Act and the voter approval obtained at the September 13, 2022 modification election in the District and any additional special taxes authorized to be levied by the District with in the District from time to time that are pledged by the District to the repayment of the Bonds, together with the proceeds collected from the sale of property pursuant to the foreclosure provisions of the Fiscal Agent Agreement for the delinquency of such Special Taxes remaining after the payment of all the cost s related to such foreclosure actions, including, but not limited to, all legal fees and expenses, court costs, consultant and title insurance fees and expenses.

Limited Obligation . ALL OBLIGATIONS OF THE DISTRICT UNDER THE FISCAL AGENT

AGREEMENT AND THE BONDS ARE NOT GENERAL OBLIGATIONS OF THE CITY OR THE

DISTRICT, BUT ARE LIMITED OBLIGATIONS, PAYABLE SOLELY FROM THE SPECIAL TAX REVENUES AND THE FUNDS PLEDGED THEREFORE UNDER THE FISCAL AGENT AGREEMENT.

THE FAITH AND CREDIT OF THE CITY, THE DISTR ICT OR THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA OR ANY POLITICAL SUBDIVISION THEREOF IS NOT PLEDGED TO THE PAYMENT OF THE BONDS.

Special Tax Fund
Pursuant to the Fiscal Agent Agreement, there is established a “Special Tax Fund” to be held and maintained by the Fiscal Agent. In the Special Tax Fund, there is furthe r established and created an Interest Account (and one or more Capitalized Interest Subaccounts therein), a Principal Account, a Redemption Account, one or more Reserve Accounts and an Administrative Expense Account.

The amounts on deposit in the foregoing funds will be held by the Fiscal Agent, and the Fiscal Agent shall invest and disburse the amounts in such funds and accounts in accordance with the provisions of the Fiscal Agent Agreement and shall disburse investment earnings thereon in accordance with the provisions of the Fiscal Agent Agreement.

The District will, on each date on which it receives Special Taxes, transfer the Special Taxes to the Fiscal Agent for deposit in the Special Tax Fund to be held in accordance with the terms of the Fiscal Agent Agreement.

The Fiscal Agent will transfer the amounts on deposit in the Special Tax Fund on the dates and in the amounts set forth in the Fiscal Agent Agreement in the following order of priority:
(1) The Administrative Expense Account of the Special Tax Fund; (2) The Interest Account of the Special Tax Fund;
(3) The Principal Account of the Special Tax Fund;
(4) The Redemption Account of the Special Tax Fund;
(5) Each Reserve Account of the Special Tax Fund;
(6) The Surplus Special Tax Account of the Acquisition and Construction Fund; and

17 297896962.3
(7) The Surplus Fund.

Administrative Expense Account. Upon receipt of Special Taxes from the District for deposit in the Special Tax Fund, the Fiscal Agent will transfer from the Special Tax Fund and deposit in the Administrative Expense Account of the Special Tax Fund an amount equa l to the Administrative Expense Requirement for the Bond Year, to be disbursed by the Fiscal Agent to pay Administrative Expenses. Moneys in the Administrative Expense Account are not pledged to the repayment of the Bonds.

Interest Account and Principal Account. Upon receipt of Special Taxes from the District for deposit in the Special Tax Fund, the principal of and interest due on the Bonds until maturity, other than principal due upon redemption, shall be paid by the Fiscal Agent from the Principal Account and the Interest Account of the Special Tax Fund, respectively. At least five Business Days prior to each March 1 and September 1, the Fiscal Agent shall make the following transfers from the Special Tax Fund first to the Interest Account and then to the Principal Account; provided, however, that to the extent that depos its have been made in the Interest Account or the Principal Account from the proceeds of the sale of an i ssue of the Bonds, or otherwise, the transfer from the Special Tax Fund need not be made; and provided, further, that, if amounts in the Special Tax Fund are inadequate to make the foregoing transfers, then any deficiency shall be made up by an immediate transfer from the applicable Reserve Account:
(1) To the Interest Account, an amount such that the balance in the Interest Account five Business Days prior to each Interest Payment Date shall be equa l to the installment of interest due on the Bonds on said Interest Payment Date and any installment of inte rest due on a previous Interest Payment Date which remains unpaid. Moneys in the Interest Account shall be used for the payment of interest on the Bonds as the same become due.
(2) To the Principal Account, an amount such that th e balance in the Principal Account five Business Days prior to September 1 of each year, shall be at least equal the principal payment due on the Bonds maturing on such September 1 and any principal paym ent due on a previous Se ptember 1 which remains unpaid. Moneys in the Principal Account shall be used for the payment of the principal of such Bonds as the same become due at maturity.

Redemption Account. On each September 1 on which a Sinking Fund Payment is due, after the deposits have been made to the Interest Account and the Principal Account of the Special Tax Fund, the Fiscal Agent shall next transfer into the Redemption Account of the Special Tax Fund from the Special Tax Fund the amount needed to make the balance in the Redemption Account five Business Days prior to each September 1 equal to the Sinking Fund Payment due on any Outstanding Bonds on such Se ptember 1; provided, however, that, if amounts in the Special Tax Fund are inadequate to make the foregoing tr ansfers, then any deficiency shall be made up by an immediate transfer from the applicable Reserve Account , if funded. Moneys so deposited in the Redemption Account shall be used and applied by the Fiscal Agent to call and redeem Term Bonds in accordance with the Sinking Fund Payment schedule set forth in the Fiscal Agent Agreement or any Supplemental Fiscal Agent Agreement.

All prepayments of Special Taxes shall be deposited in the Redemption Account to be used to redeem Bonds on the next date for which notice of redemption can timely be given. 2023 Reserve Account . Moneys in the 2023 Reserve Account sha ll be used solely for the purpose of paying the principal of, including Sinking Fund Payments, and interest on any 2023 B onds and Related Parity Bonds, including the 2025 Bonds, when due in the event that the moneys in the Interest Account and the Principal Account of the Special Tax Fund are insufficient therefor or moneys in the Redemption Account of the Special Tax Fund are insufficient to make a Sinking Fund Payment when due. If the amounts in the Interest Account, the Principal Account or the Redemption Account of the Speci al Tax Fund are insufficient to pay the principal of, including Sinking Fund Payments, or interest on any 2023 Bonds and Related Parity Bonds, including the 2025

18 297896962.3
Bonds, when due, the Fiscal Agent shall withdraw from the 2023 Reserve Account for deposit in the Interest Account, the Principal Account or the Redemption Acc ount of the Special Tax Fund, as applicable, moneys necessary for such purposes.

Whenever moneys are withdrawn from the 2023 Reserve Account, after making the required transfers under the Fiscal Agent Agreement, the Fiscal Agent shall transfer to the 2023 Reserve Account from available moneys in the Special Tax Fund, or from any other legally available funds which the District elects to apply to such purpose, the amount needed to restore the amount of such 2023 Reserve Account to the 2023 Reserve Requirement. Moneys in the Special Tax Fund shall be deemed available for transfer to the 2023 Reserve Account only if the Fiscal Agent determines that such amounts will not be needed to make the deposits required to be made to the Interest Account, the Principal Account or the Redemption Account of the Special Tax Fund. If amounts in the Special Tax Fund or otherwise transferred to replenish the 2023 Reserve Account are inadequate to restore the 2023 Reserve Account to the 2023 Reserve Requirement, then the District shall include the amount necessary to restore fully the 2023 Reserve Account to the 2023 R eserve Requirement in the next annual Special Tax levy to the extent of the maximum permitted Special Tax rates.

Prepayment of Special Taxes
Under the Rate and Method, the owner of a parcel may voluntarily prepay the Special Tax obligation for a parcel in whole or in part. Any voluntary prepayme nt of Special Taxes will result in a special mandatory redemption of the Bonds. See “THE BONDS—Redemp tion—Special Mandatory Redemption from Special Tax Prepayments” and “SPECIAL RISK FACTORS – Extraordinary Redemption From Prepaid Special Taxes.” Covenant to Commence Foreclosure Proceedings
The District covenants in the Fiscal Agent Agreement that it will determine or cause to be determined, no later than March 1 and August 1 of each year, whether or not any owners of the property within the District are delinquent in the payment of Special Taxes and, if such delinquencies exist, the District will order and cause to be commenced no later than April 15 (with respect to the March 1 determination da te) or September 1 (with respect to the August 1 determination date), foreclosur e proceedings and diligently prosecute, an action in the superior court to foreclose the lien of any Special Tax es or installment thereof not paid when due, provided, however, that the District shall not be required to orde r the commencement of foreclosure proceedings if (i) the total Special Tax delinquency in the District for such Fiscal Year is less than five percent (5%) of the total Special Tax levied in such Fiscal Year, or (ii) the amount in the 2023 Reserve Account is equal to the 2023 Reserve Requirement and the amount in any reserve account establis hed for Bonds that are not Related Parity Bonds is equal to its applicable reserve requirement. Notwithsta nding the foregoing, if the District determines that any single property owner in the District is delinquent in the pa yment of four (4) or more installments of the Special Tax, then it will diligently institute, prosecute and pursue foreclosure proceedings against such property owner.

Commencement of any judicial forecl osure proceedings includes the District ’s efforts to collect the delinquent Special Taxes by sending subsequent notice of delinquency and a demand for immediate payment thereof.

There could be a default or a delay in payments to the owners of the 2025 Bonds pending prosecution of foreclosure proceedings and receipt by the District of foreclosure sale proceeds, if any, and subsequent transfer of those proceeds constituting Special Taxes to the Special Tax Fund.

Under the Act, the City has the power to use a fo reclosure judgment to purchase the subject property by credit bid at foreclosure sale, in wh ich event the City would have no obligation to pay such credit bid for 24 months.

Notwithstanding any provision of the Act or other law of the State to the contrary, in connection with any foreclosure related to delinquent Special Taxes, the Fi scal Agent Agreement authori zes the District to do the following:

19 297896962.3
(1) The District may credit bid at any foreclosure sale, without any requirement that funds be set aside in the amount so credit bid, in the amou nt specified in the Act, or such lesser amount as provided in the Fiscal Agent Agreement or otherwise under the Act. (2) The District may use amounts in the Surplu s Fund to pay costs of foreclosure of delinquent Special Taxes in accordance with the Fiscal Agent Agreement.

IN THE EVENT FORECLOSURE OR FORECLOSURES ARE NECESSARY, THERE MAY BE A

DELAY IN PAYMENTS TO BOND OWNERS PENDING PROSECUTION OF THE FORECLOSURE PROCEEDINGS AND RECEIPT BY THE DISTRICT OF THE PROCEEDS OF THE FORECLOSURE SALE;

IT IS ALSO POSSIBLE THAT NO BID FOR THE PURCHASE PRICE OR APPLICABLE PROPERTY WOULD BE RECEIVED AT THE FORECLOSURE SALE. SEE “SPECIAL RISK FACTORS.”

NOTWITHSTANDING ANY OTHER PROVISION OF THE FISCAL AGENT AGREEMENT TO THE

CONTRARY, THE CITY IS NOT OBLIGATED TO ADVANCE AVAILABLE FUNDS FROM THE CITY

TREASURY TO CURE ANY DEFICIENCY IN THE SPECIAL TAX FUND ESTABLISHED UNDER THE FISCAL AGENT AGREEMENT.

Value-to-Lien Ratios
The Bonds are secured by Special Taxes which may in clude amounts realized upon foreclosure sale of delinquent parcels. Therefore, the ability of the District to meet debt service on the Bonds may depend on the ability of delinquent parcels to generate sufficient proceeds upon foreclosure sale to pay delinquent Special Taxes.

The combined appraised and assessed values of the par cels within the District is $420,801,326, as of April 4, 2025, which is 12.13
* times the aggregate principal amount of the 2023 Bonds and the 2025 Bonds issued and 10.17* times the aggregate total direct and overlapping debt within the District, including the 2023 Bonds and the 2025 Bonds and overlapping general obligation debt. See “THE DISTRICT – Appraised and Assessed Value- to-Lien Ratios” and “- Direct and Overlapping Governme ntal Obligations” herein. See also, “APPENDIX G – APPRAISAL REPORT.”
No Obligation of the City Upon Delinquency
The City is under no obligation to transfer any funds of the City into the Special Tax Fund or any other funds or accounts under the Fiscal Agent Agreement for the payment of the principal of or interest on the 2025 Bonds if a delinquency occurs in the payment of any Special Taxes.

Although the Act authorizes the District to cause a fo reclosure action to be commenced and diligently prosecuted to completion, the Act does not impose on the District or the City any obligation to purchase or acquire any parcel of property sold at a foreclosure sale if ther e is no other purchaser at such sale. Notwithstanding the above, the City does have the ability to use the foreclosure judgment to purchase the property by credit bid at a foreclosure sale, in which case the City would have no obligation to pay such credit bid for 24 months.

Other Indebtedness and Obligations
At the September 13, 2022 modification election, the qualified electors authorized the District to incur Bonds in an amount not to exceed $50,000,000. The 2025 Bonds constitutes the second and final series of the total authorization of $50,000,000 of Bonds, other than Bonds issued to refund all or a portion of the 2023 Bonds, the 2025 Bonds or other parity refunding bonds. At a late r time, additional Series of Bonds may be issued on a

* Preliminary, subject to change.

20 297896962.3
parity with the 2025 Bonds solely for the purpose of refunding the 2023 Bonds, the 2025 Bonds or other parity refunding bonds.

The properties within the District are subject to annual special taxes for services for the District (“Special Tax B”). For the 2024-25 Fiscal Year, the Special Tax B was $351.23 per Residential Unit. Special Tax B shall be increased by the lesser of the percent change in the Consumer Price Index or three percent (3%) for each Fiscal Year after Fiscal Year 2023-24. Undeveloped Property is not subject to Special Tax B. The Special Tax B is not pledged to the 2025 Bonds.

The properties in the District are subject to other existing authorized indebtedness payable from taxes and assessments that may be levied. Existing authorized indebtedness is shown in Table 8 under “THE DISTRICT – Direct and Overlapping Debt and Other Obligations” herein.

Additionally, parcels within the District are subject to a special tax levied and collected by Rialto Unified School District CFD No. 2019-1. [For Fiscal Year 2023-24, the assigned tax ranged from $563 to $841 per dwelling unit.] This special tax contains an annual escalator of 2% per year. The Rialto Unified School District CFD No. 2019-1 is authorized to issue up to $12 million of special tax bonds secured by the special tax revenues generated by such community facilities district. The Developer estimates that at full buildout of the River Ranch Project, the property within the District will also bear 100% of the total special taxes levied by Rialto Unified School District CFD No. 2019-1. The special taxes levied by Rialto Unified School District CFD No. 2019-1 are parity liens on any parcel of property taxed by both the District and Rialto Unified School District CFD No. 2019-

THE DISTRICT
General
Description and Location. The District consists of an approxi mately 183-acre newly developed master- planned community known as “River Ranch” which at buildout will consist of 776 detached single-family homes among six neighborhoods. The development is located along River Ranch Parkway, at the northeast edge of the City with boundaries at the end of Country Club Drive, ¼ mile northeast of Riverside Avenue, and several blocks north of Highland Avenue and the 210 Freeway.

Immediate Surroundings. River Ranch is located at the north edge of the urban area of Rialto with a mix of nearby residential neighborhoods, w ith school, religious and commercial uses farther south toward the 210 Freeway, and open space and sand/gravel/industrial uses to th e north as part of the expansive Lytle Creek/Cajon Wash through this area.

To the south/southwest of River Ranch and extending to the north side of Riverside Drive are various neighborhoods of single family homes built from the 1950’s through the mid 1980’s, with a few newer custom or rebuilt homes. The homes generally range in size from 1,500 square feet to approximately 3,000 square feet, with a few larger estate homes ranging up to 6,500 square feet. Across Riverside Dr. and extending south to the north side of the 210 Freeway are large areas of single family neighborhoods, as well as two elementary school campuses and one middle school campus in Rialto Unified School Di strict, and a large church property. The nearest shops and retail for River Ranch are located in commercial centers on both sides of Riverside Drive at the 210 Freeway and include a market, quick serve and fast food restaurants, service commercial and office.

To the northwest of the northerly part of River Ranch is much open space and vacant land including a water storage facility for West San Bernardino County Water District. This area, comprising 571 acres, was annexed into the City in July 2016 and is part of the Lytle Creek Ranch Specific Plan which also includes River Ranch development. Lytle Creek and Cajon Wash exte nd along the north and east sides of the River Ranch development, with more than 1,200 acres of this ar ea preserved in perpetuity as part of the Cajon Creek Conservation Bank established by Vulcan Materials Comp any. The area is managed as wildlife habitat and provides protected habitat for many plant, bird and mammal species. Vulcan Materials Company operates various mining and quarry sites along the Cajon Wash, including th e approximate 100-acre site adjacent to the southeast of the southerly part of the River Ranch development.

The River Ranch community is located within the bo undaries of the Rialto Unified School District. The neighborhood is served by Hughbanks Elementary School, Kolb Middle School and Carter High School.

Required Infrastructure. All backbone streets, sewer, water, and storm drain improvements required to build-out all 776 lots has been completed. The internal streets, sewer, water, and storm drain improvements have been completed for each planning area.

As of June, 1, 2025, the Developer has completed all infrastructure (pending final local agency acceptance and completion of punch list items) except for the landscaping of the Western Park and the capping of the streets in Edgestone, both of which are anticipated to be completed by the end of July 2025. The Developer has completed construction of, and the HOA has accepted, the community club house and community parks.

Per the CalFire Fire Hazard Severity Zone map, the portions of River Ranch lying northerly/northeasterly of River Ranch Parkway are designate d as moderate and high Fire Hazard Severity Zones.. All mitigation has been completed where homeowners complied, and all continuing construction as of September 2023 was and will be WUI/Chapter 7 compliant. Some of the homes were c onstructed without meeting the required guidelines for property located in high fire zones, but the Developer is retrofitting all of the previously-built homes whose owners have permitted such retrofitting to satisfy the Califor nia Residential Code Section R337 (Materials and Construction Methods for Exterior Wildfire Exposure) . All new home construction will comply with these guidelines. In addition, all landscaping material and spacing also meets these guidelines, and all permanent power lines are underground. Although identified in high fire areas, homeowners have not had any problems in obtaining fire insurance to date.

Entitlement Status. Other than certificates of occupancy and other permits required in the normal course of home construction, all discretionary entitlements required to complete the development and sales of homes in the District have been received.

30 297896962.3
The District is located within the Lytle Creek Ranch Specific Plan, within an approximate 183-acre portion of Neighborhood 2. Tentative Tract Map No. 20092 was approved by the City Council on September 10, 2019 to create six developable lots to facilitate a 776-lot residential subdivision. The more specific approvals for the residential development are by the final maps fo r Tract Nos. 20204, 20205, 20206, 20207, 20208 and 20209 which were recorded from March 31, 2022 through May 3, 2023. In add ition, the Condominium Plans for The Cove were recorded from September 29, 2022 through March 24, 2023.

Conditions of Approval. All conditions of approval required for the issuance of building permits within the project have been satisfied, and none of the re maining infrastructure improvements are required to be completed as a condition of receiving building or occupancy permits. As of June 1, 2025, all 776 building permits have been issued.

Except as described in this Offici al Statement and except for those consents, permits, authorizations, certifications and approvals of governmental entities re quired in the ordinary course of development, the Developer has no actual knowledge of any impediment to construction or obtaining land use entitlements which could be reasonably expected to have a material adverse effect on its ability to complete the planned development of its property within the District as described in the Official Statement.

Financing Plan. As of June 1, 2025, the Developer had expended approximately $____ million in land acquisition, improvements, home construction costs, and other developmen t costs (excluding interest) related to the River Ranch project. As of June 1, 2025, the Deve loper anticipates expending an additional approximately $___ million in development, home construction, and marketing costs for the River Ranch project.

To date, the Developer has financed its land acquisi tion, site development and home construction costs related to its property in the District through internally generated funds. The Developer believes that such funding sources will be sufficient to complete its proposed development in the District as described herein. No assurance can be given that amounts necessary to fund the remain ing planned development of the Developer's property within the District will be availabl e when needed. Neither the Developer nor any other entity or person is under any legal obligation of any kind to expend funds for the development of the Developer’s property in the District.

Any contributions by the Developer or any other entity or person to fund the costs of such development are entirely voluntary. If and to the extent the aforementioned sources are inadequate to pay the costs to complete the Developer's planned development within the District, th e remaining portions of such development may not be completed.

Although the Developer expects to have sufficient fu nds available to complete its planned development in the District commensurate with the development timing described in this Official Statement, there can be no assurance that amounts necessary to fina nce the remaining development and home construction costs will be available from the Developer or any other source when n eeded. Neither the Developer, nor any of its related entities are under any legal obligation of any kind to expend funds for the development of and construction of homes on its property in the District, or the payment of ad valorem property taxes or the Special Taxes. Any contributions by the Developer to fund the costs of such development are entirely voluntary.

If and to the extent that internal funding, including but not limited to home sales revenues, are inadequate to pay the costs to complete the planned development by the Developer within the District and other financing by the Developer is not put into place, there could be a s hortfall in the funds required to complete the planned development by the Developer in the District, and the remaining portions of the Developer’s project in the District may not be completed.

Rate and Method of Apportionment of Special Taxes
The following is a synopsis of the provisions of th e Rate and Method. This synopsis does not purport to be comprehensive and should be read in conjunction with the complete text of the Rate and Method, including its attachments, which is attached hereto as “APPENDIX D – RATE AND METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT OF SPECIAL TAX.” All capitalized terms not defined in this section have the meanings set forth in APPENDIX D.

Each Fiscal Year, each A ssessor’s Parcel within the boundaries of the District shall be classified as Taxable Property or Exempt Property. In addition, all Taxable Property within the District shall be classified as Developed Property, Approved, Undeveloped Property, or Provisional Pr operty, and all such Taxable Property shall be subject to the levy of Special Taxes in a ccordance with the Rate and Method. Furthermore, each Assessor’s Parcel of Developed Property shall be classified according to its applicable Land Use Class according to its applicable Zone and land use type based on its Building Square Footage as applicable.

For each Fiscal Year, the CFD Administrator shall cal culate the Special Tax Requirement for Facilities and levy Special Tax A on all Taxable Property in accordance with the following steps:

Step 1: The Special Tax A shall be levied Proportionately on all Assessor’s Parcels of Developed Property up to 100% of the applicable Assigned Special Tax A to satisfy the Special Tax Requirement for Facilities; Step 2: If additional monies are needed to satisfy the Special Tax Requirement for Facilities after Step 1 has been completed, the Special Tax A shall be levi ed Proportionately on all Assessor’s Parcels of Approved Property up to 100% of the Maximum Special Tax A for Approved Property; Step 3: If additional monies are needed to satisfy the Special Tax Requirement for Facilities after Step 1 has been completed, the Special Tax A shall be levied Proportionately on all Assessor’s Parcels of Undeveloped Property up to 100% of the Maximum Special Tax A for Undeveloped Property; Step 4: If additional monies are needed to satisfy the Special Tax Requirement for Facilities after the first three steps have been completed, then the Special Tax A amount determ ined in Step 1 shall be increased Proportionately on all Assessor’s Parcels of Developed Property up to 100% of the Maximum Special Tax A for Developed Property; and
Step 5: If additional monies are needed to satisfy the Special Tax Requirement for Facilities after the first four steps have been completed, then the Special Tax A shall be levied Proportionately on all Assessor’s Parcels of Provisional Property up to 100% of the Maximum Special Tax A for Provisional Property.

In the event Building Permits have been issued prior to May 1 st of the previous Fiscal Year for one or more Residential Units on a single Assessor’s Parcel causing such Assessor’s Parcel to be classified as Developed Property, and the County has not yet assigned final Assesso r’s Parcel Number(s) to such Residential Unit(s) in accordance with the Final Map applicab le to such Assessor’s Parcel, then the amount of the Special Tax A levy on such Assessor’s Parcel shall be determined as follows : (1) the CFD Administrator shall first determine an amount of the Maximum Special Tax A for such Assessor’s Parcel, based on the classification of such Assessor’s Parcel as Undeveloped Property; (2) the amount of the Special Tax A and levy for the Residential Units on such Assessor’s Parcel for which Building Permits have been issued shall be determined based on the Assigned Special Tax A for Developed Property, and such amount shall be levied as Developed Property in accordance with Step 1 above; and (3) the amount of the Special Tax A on th e Taxable Property in such Assessor’s Parcel not subject to the Special Tax A levy in clause (2) shall be equal to (A) the percentage of the Maximum Special Tax A rate levied on all other Undeveloped Pr operty pursuant to Step 2 above multiplied by the total of the amount determined in clause (1), less (B) the amount determined in clause (2).

32 297896962.3
Notwithstanding the above, under no circumstances w ill the Special Tax levied against any Assessor’s Parcel of Developed Property for which an occupancy pe rmit for private residential use has been issued be increased by more than ten percent as a consequence of delinquency or default by the owner of any other Assessor’s Parcel within the District.

Special Tax A shall be levied for a period not to ex ceed fifty (50) Fiscal Years commencing with Fiscal Year 2023-24, provided however that th e Special Tax A may cease to be levi ed in an earlier Fiscal Year if the CFD Administrator has determined that all required interest and principa l payments on Outstanding Bonds have been paid.

(1) Coverage has been calculated based on the total Assigned Special Taxes for the 776 parcels which all constitute Developed Property as of April 4, 2025.

Pursuant to Section 53321 (d) of the Act, the special tax le vied against any assessor’s parcel for which an occupancy permit for private residential use has been issued shall not be increased as a consequence of delinquency or defau lt by the owner of any other assessor’s parcel within the district by more than 10% above the amounts that would have been levied in that fiscal year had there never been any such delinquencies or defaults. As a result, it is possible that the Distri ct may not be able to increase the tax levy to the Assigned Special Tax in all years. However, subject to the limitations on the District’s ability to levy the necessary amount of Special Tax es as imposed by Section 53321(d) of the Act, the District can levy Special Taxes on Undeveloped Property to make up all or a portion of such shortfall.

Appraised and Assessed Property Value
The information below is only a summary of certain information contained in the Appraisal Report.

The Appraisal Report is reprinted herein as Appendix G. The information below is qualified in its entirety by the complete Appraisal Report. The District makes no representation as to the accuracy or completeness of the Appraisal Report.

The Appraisal Report. The 2025 Bonds are secured by Special Taxes which may include amounts realized upon foreclosure sale of delinquent parcels. Therefore, the ability of the District to meet debt service on the 2025 Bonds may depend on the ability of de linquent parcels to generate sufficient proceeds upon foreclosure sale to pay delinquent Special Taxes. The City commissioned Stephen G. White, MAI, Fullerton, California (the “Appraiser”) to ascertain the “as is” market value of the fee simple estate of the taxable properties within the District with assessed valuations of less than $250,000. These properties comprise 355 of the 776 total residential lots that ar e being developed by the Developer within the six separate product types. The remaining 421 lots with assessed valuations of over $250,000, are valued at

35 297896962.3
the Fiscal Year 2024-25 assessed values and are ow ned by individual homeowners, along with four completed model homes owned by the Developer.

As of the date of value for the Appraisal Report (April 4, 2025), for the 355 lots to be appraised, 244 detached single-family homes were owned by individual homeowners, 26 completed homes were owned by the Developer, 49 homes under construction were owned by the Developer, and 36 finished lots or vacant lots were owned by the Developer. The Appraiser estimated that, as of the April 4, 2025 date of value of the Appraisal Report, the “as is” market value of the fee simple estate (subject to the lien of the Special Taxes) of such 355 lots was $167,660,000.

The remaining 421 lots with assessed valuations of over $250,000, are valued at the Fiscal Year 2024-25 assessed values and are owned by individual homeowners, along with four completed model homes owned by the Developer. The assessed value for the 421 lots is $253,141,326.

The combined appraised and assessed values of the 776 lots is $420,801,326, which is approximately 12.13 * times the aggregate principal amount of the 2025 Bonds. Below is a table summarizing the components of the values allocated to the taxable property within the six product types within the District as detailed in the Appraisal Report.

An updated Appraisal Report has not been requested by the City or the District or completed by the Appraiser since the original date of value. On the date of issuance of the 2025 Bonds, the Appraiser will certify that the Appraiser is aware that acts and events may have occurred since the date of value of the Appraisal Report which could result in both positive a nd negative effects on the market value of the appraised property. However, the Appraiser has not performed additional research or valuation analysis specific to the subject property since the date of the Appraisal Report. The Appraisal Report’s value estimates reflect certain assumptions set forth in the Appraisal Report including that all costs reported by the Developer are accurate, including but not limited to the remaining impact fees and lot costs. Any variance in costs could impact the value conclusions reported in the Appraisal Report. For a full description of the assumptions relied upon by the Appraiser, as well as a description of the valuation methodology, see APPENDIX G – “APPRAISAL REPORT.” The Appraisal Report was prepared in accordance with and subject to the requirements of The Appraisal Sta ndards for Land Secured Financing as published by the

In addition to the bonded indebtedness set forth in Table 8, any general obligation bonds currently authorized but not issued within the District will likely be issued and new general obligation bonds may be authorized at future elections. New community fac ilities districts or special assessment districts may be formed which include all or a portion of the District, resulting in the issuance of more bonds and the levy of additional special taxes or other taxes and assessments on parcels within the District. In addition to the Special Taxes, the property owners in the Di strict will be required to pay the general ad valorem property taxes for their parcels.

Historical Levies and Delinquencies
In the first year of the levy (Fiscal Year 2023-24), Special Taxes in the amount of $871,880 were levied on 307 parcels within the District. Special Taxes coll ected in Fiscal Year 2024-25 will be sufficient to pay the debt service due on the 2025 Bonds on September 1, 2025. The table below provides the amount of the levies, delinquencies and delinquency rates regarding the collection of Special Taxes for District from the initial levy.

SPECIAL RISK FACTORS
The purchase of the 2025 Bonds involves significant investment risks and, therefore, the 2025 Bonds may not be suitable investments for many investors. The following is a discussion of certain risk factors which should be considered, in addition to other matters set forth herein, in evaluating the investment quality of the 2025 Bonds.

This discussion does not purport to be comprehensive or definitive. The occurrence of one or more of the events discussed herein could adversely affect the ability or willi ngness of property owners in the District to pay their Special Taxes when due. Such failures to pay Special Taxes could result in the inability of the District to make full and punctual payments of debt service on the 2025 Bonds. In addition, the occurrence of one or more of the events discussed herein could adversely a ffect the value of the property in the District. See “SPECIAL RISK FACTORS — Appraised and Assessed Va luations; Value-to-Lien Ratios” and “— No Ratings and Limited Secondary Market” below.

Risks of Real Estate Secured Investments Generally
The Owners of the 2025 Bonds will be subject to the risks generally incident to an investment secured by real estate, including, without limitation, (i) adverse cha nges in local market conditi ons, such as changes in the market value of real property in the vicinity of the District, the supply of or demand for competitive properties in such area, and the market value of residential property or commercial buildings and/or sites in the event of sale or foreclosure; (ii) changes in real estate tax rates a nd other operating expenses, governmental rules (including, without limitation, zoning laws a nd laws relating to endangered species and hazardous materials) and fiscal policies; (iii) natural disasters (including, without limitation, earthquakes, wildfires and floods), which may result in uninsured losses; (iv) adverse changes in local market conditions; and (v) increased delinquencies due to rising mortgage costs and other factors.

Other factors that could adversely affect property values in the District include, among others, relocation of employers out of the area, shortages of water, elect ricity, natural gas or other utilities, and destruction of property caused by man-made disasters.

44 297896962.3
Limited Obligations
The 2025 Bonds and interest thereon are not payable from the general funds of the City. Except with respect to the Special Taxes, neither the credit nor the taxi ng power of the District or the City is pledged for the payment of the 2025 Bonds or the interest thereon, and, except as provided in the Fiscal Agent Agreement, no Owner of the 2025 Bonds may compel the exercise of any taxing power by the District or the City or force the forfeiture of any City or District property. The principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the 2025 Bonds are not a debt of the City or a legal or equitable pledge, charge, lien or encumbrance upon any of the City’s or the District’s property or upon any of th e City’s or the District’s income, r eceipts or revenues, except the Special Taxes and other amounts pledged under the Fiscal Agent Agreement.

Insufficiency of Special Taxes
Given limitations in the Act regarding increases in Special Taxes on residential parcels to address Special Tax delinquencies, the potential coverage to respond to delinquencies is approximately 110% of Annual Debt Service. Notwithstanding that the maximum Special Taxes that may be levied in the District exceeds debt service due on the 2025 Bonds, the Special Taxes collected could be inadequate to make timely payment of debt service either because of nonpayment or because property becomes exempt from taxation.

If for any reason property within the District becomes exempt from taxation by reason of ownership by a non-taxable entity such as the federal go vernment, another public agency or other organization determined to be exempt, subject to the limitations of the maximum authori zed rates, the Special Tax will be reallocated to the remaining taxable properties within the District. This could result in certain owners of property paying a greater amount of the Special Tax and could have an adverse impact upon the ab ility and willingness of the owners of such property to pay the Special Tax when due.

The Act provides that, if any property within the Dist rict not otherwise exempt from the Special Tax is acquired by a public entity through a negotiated transaction, or by gift or devise, the Special Tax will continue to be levied on and enforceable against the public entity th at acquired the property. In addition, the Act provides that, if property subject to the Special Tax is acquired by a public entity through eminent domain proceedings, the obligation to pay the Special Tax with respect to that prope rty is to be treated as if it were a special assessment and be paid from the eminent domain award. The c onstitutionality and operation of these provisions of the Act have not been tested in the courts. Due to problems of collecting taxes from public agencies, if a substantial portion of land within the District became exempt from the Special Tax because of public ownership, or otherwise, the Maximum Special Taxes which could be levied upon the remaining property within those areas might not be sufficient to pay principal of and interest on the 2025 B onds when due and a default could occur with respect to the payment of such principal and interest.

Moreover, if a substantial portion of land within the District became exempt from the Special Tax because of public ownership, or otherwise, the maximum Special Tax which could be levied upon the remaining property within the District might not be su fficient to pay principal of and interest on the 2025 Bonds when due and a default could occur with respect to the payment of such principal and interest.

Impact of Economic Conditions on Development within the District Certain events and factors which negatively affect the regional, State and national economies could have an adverse effect on the pace at which the current or any future developers in the District can complete the future homes, and demand by, and the ability of individuals to purc hase homes within the District. Such events and factors could include rising inflation and interest rates, persistent supply chain issues and global market instability caused by geopolitical events. Any adverse impact of the foregoing and other economic factors on the project in the District and the real estate market in general cannot be predicted.

45 297896962.3
Increasing Mortgage Interest Rates; Recent Bank Failures Since approximately November 2021, interest rates for mortgage loans have increased significantly.

Increases in mortgage interest rates could have a negative impact on the estimated absorption rates of the planned for-sale residential units in the Dist rict described herein. With respect to entry-level households, increased mortgage interest rates may adversely impact the af fordability of homes and may increase mortgage payment levels for owning a lower-priced home relative to renting a residence, thereby making purchasing less attractive.

With respect to move-up households, higher mortgage interest rates may impact the desire of current homeowners to move from their present home due to the fact that their present home likely has a relatively low mortgage interest rate. In addition, in such instances, a new home would likely have a higher interest rate on a new mortgage loan as well as a higher purchase price and property taxes. Such considerations may decrease the desire for move- up households to purchase a new home. The foregoing factors could reduce demand for and/or the ability to achieve the sales prices of the planned for-sale homes within the District as described herein. The District cannot predict whether future changes in financial markets may occur which may impact interest rates, availability of mortgage loans, or availability of funding which impact development in the District.

Concentration of Ownership
Based on development and ownership status as of June 1, 2025 (and assuming no further development activity and transfer of ownership), individual homeowners and the Developer would be responsible for approximately [87.37]% and [12.63]%, respectively, of the projected Fiscal Year 2025-26 Special Tax levy.

The timely payment of principal of and interest on the 2025 Bonds depends upon the willingness and ability of the current and future property owners in the District to pay the Special Taxes prior to delinquency. General and local economic conditions and governmental requirements or restrictions may affect the willingness of the current property owners, or any successor property owners, to pay the Special Taxes, and there is no assurance that the current property owners, or any successor property owners, will pay such Special Taxes even if financially able to do so. Due to the concentration of ownership of the property within the District, a failure by the Developer or any successor property owner thereto to pay the Special Taxes may result in a default in the payment of debt service on the 2025 Bonds. See “THE DISTRICT - Property Ownership and Development Status.”

Depletion of 2023 Reserve Account
The 2023 Reserve Account is maintained in an am ount equal to the 2023 Reserve Requirement. See “SECURITY AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE 2025 BONDS —Special Tax Fund – 2023 Reserve Account.” Funds in the 2023 Reserve Account may be used to pay principa l of and interest on the 2023 Bonds and the 2025 Bonds and any Related Par ity Bonds in the event the proceeds of the levy and the collection of the Special Taxes against the property in the District is not sufficient. If the 2023 Reserve Account is depleted, the funds can be replenished from the proceeds of the levy and collection of the Special Tax that are in excess of the amount required to pay Administrative Expenses and principal and interest on the 2023 Bonds and the 2025 Bonds and any Related Parity Bonds. However, no replenishment of the 2023 Reserve Account from the proceeds of the Special Taxes can occur as long as th e proceeds that are collected from th e levy of the Special Taxes at the maximum tax rates (subject to the limitations of the Act), together with available funds, remain insufficient to pay all such amounts. Thus, it is possible that the 2023 Reser ve Account will be depleted and not replenished by the levy of the Special Taxes.

Risk of Structural or Wildland Fires
The District is located in an area of increased risk for utility associated wildfires pursuant to the California Public Utilities Commission Fire-Threat Map. Pursuant to the CalFire Fire Hazard Severity Zone map, the portions of the District lying northerly/northeasterly of River Ranch Parkway are designated as Moderate and High Fire Hazard Severity Zones. CalFire has identified the property as being located in the Local Responsibility Area. Mitigation measures in such areas typically in clude no build zones, fuel modification areas and

46 297896962.3
recommended construction features. See ”THE DISTR ICT - Property Ownership and Development Status - Required Infrastructure” for mitigation measures undertaken by the Developer.

Fire hazards increase with any drought period and periods of high winds, and are highest for structures at the fringe of forested or wildland areas. In addition to the damage caused directly by a foothill fire, further damage may be caused by resulting mudslides during subsequent rains. In the event of damage to real property within the District, the property owner could become unwilling or unable to pay the Special Taxes when due.

Natural Disasters
The District, like all California communities, may be subject to unpredictable seismic activity, fires, flood, or other natural disasters. Southern California is a sei smically active area. Seismic activity, wildfires and other natural disasters represents a potential risk for damage to buildings, roads, bridges, and property within the District. In addition, land susceptible to seismic activity may be subject to liquefaction during the occurrence of such event.

In the event of a severe earthquake, fire, flood or ot her natural disaster, there may be significant damage to both property and infrastructure in the District. As a result, a substantial portion of the property owners may be unable or unwilling to pay the Special Taxes when due. In addition, the value of land in the District could be diminished in the aftermath of such a natural disaster, reducing the resulting proceeds of foreclosure sales in the event of delinquencies in the payment of the Special Taxes.

The District is located in an Alquist-Priolo Earthquake Fault Zone. Pursuant to the Lytle Creek Ranch Specific Plan Environmental Impact Report Addendum, the potential risks associated with faults, seismic ground shaking and liquefaction would be mitigated to a less than significant level by certain mitigation measures. These measures include items such as engineered foundation design, post-tension/structural slabs, and use of subdrains and buttress or stabilization fills in certain areas, which have been or are being implemented in homes within the District.

The District is located in Zone X of FEMA Flood Zone designations which indicates areas that are determined to be outside of the 100- and 500-year floodplains and out of a Special Flood Hazard Area.

No assurance can be given that there will be no natural disasters in the future that will impact the District or to the extent to which any future natural disasters may impact the property in the District.

Hazardous Substances
The presence of hazardous substances on a parcel may r esult in a reduction in the value of a parcel. In general, the owners and operators of a parcel may be re quired by law to remedy conditions of the parcel relating to releases or threatened releases of hazardous substances. The Federal Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, sometimes refe rred to as “CERCLA” or the “Superfund Act,” is the most well-known and widely applicable of these laws, but California laws with rega rd to hazardous substances are also stringent and similar. Under many of these laws, the owner or operator is obligated to remedy a hazardous substance condition of property whether or not the owner or operator has anything to do with creating or handling the hazardous substance. The effect, therefore, should any of the taxed parcels be affected by a hazardous substance, is to reduce the marketability and value of the parcel by the costs of remedying the condition, because the purchaser, upon becoming owner, will become obligated to remedy the condition just as is the seller.

The District is not aware of the presence of any fe derally or state classified hazardous substances in violation of any environmental laws, located on the property within the District. However, it is possible that such materials do currently exist and that the District is not aware of them.

47 297896962.3
Further, it is possible that liabilities may arise in the future with respect to any of the parcels resulting from the existence, currently, on the parcel of a substance presently classified as hazardous but which has not been released or the release of which is not presently threatened or may arise in the future resulting from the existence, currently on the parcel of a substance not presently classi fied as hazardous but which may in the future be so classified. Further, such liabilities may arise not simply from the existence of a hazardous substance but from the method of handling it. All of these possibilities could significan tly affect the value of a parcel that is realizable upon a delinquency.

Parity Taxes and Special Assessments
Property within the District is subject to taxes and assessments imposed by public agencies also having jurisdiction over the land within the District. S ee “THE DISTRICT —Direct and Overlapping Governmental Obligations.”
The Special Taxes and any penalties th ereon will constitute a lien against the lots and parcels of land on which they will be annually imposed until they are paid. Such lien is on a parity with all special taxes and special assessments levied by the City and other agencies and is co-equal to and independent of the lien for general property taxes regardless of when they are imposed upon the same property. The Special Taxes have priority over all existing and future private liens imposed on the propert y except, possibly, for liens or security interests held by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. See “SPECIAL RISK FACTORS — Bankruptcy and Foreclosure” below.

Developed Property within the District is also subj ect to annual Special Tax B pursuant to the Rate and Method. For the 2024-25 Fiscal Year, the Special Tax B was $351.23 per Residential Unit. For Fiscal Year 2025- 26 it will be $361.77. Special Tax B is increased by the lesser of the percent change in the Consumer Price Index or three percent (3%) for each Fiscal Year. See “THE DISTRICT - Direct and Overlapping Governmental Obligations.” The Special Tax B is not pledged to the 2025 Bonds.

Neither the City nor the District has control over the ability of other entities and districts to issue indebtedness secured by special taxes, ad valorem taxes or assessments payable from all or a portion of the property within the District. In addition, the landow ners within the District may, without the consent or knowledge of the City, petition other public agencies to issue public indebtedness secured by special taxes, ad valorem taxes or assessments. Any such special taxes, ad valorem taxes or assessments may have a lien on such property on a parity with the Special Taxes and could reduce the estimated value-to-lien ratios for property within the District described herein.

Disclosures to Future Purchasers
The willingness or ability of an owner of a parcel to pa y the Special Tax, even if the value of the parcel is sufficient, may be affected by whether or not the ow ner was given due notice of the Special Tax authorization at the time the owner purchased the par cel, was informed of the amount of the Special Tax on the parcel should the Special Tax be levied at the maximum tax rate and the risk of such a levy, and, at the time of such a levy, has the ability to pay it as well as pay other expenses and obligations. The City caused Notices of Special Tax lien to be recorded in the Office of the R ecorder for the County against each pa rcel. While title companies normally refer to such notices in title reports, there can be no guarantee that such reference will be made or, if made, that a prospective purchaser or lender will consider such Special Tax obligation in the purchase of a property within the District or lending of money thereon.

The Act requires the subdivider (or its agent or repr esentative) of a subdivision to notify a prospective purchaser or long-term lessor of any lot, parcel, or unit subject to a Mello-Roos special tax of the existence and maximum amount of such special tax using a statutorily prescribed form. California Civil Code Section 1102.6b requires that in the case of transfers other than those c overed by the above requirement , the seller must at least

48 297896962.3
make a good faith effort to notify the prospective purchaser of the special tax lien in a format prescribed by statute.

Failure by an owner of the property to comply with the above requirements, or failure by a purchaser or lessor to consider or understand the nature a nd existence of the Special Tax, could adversely affect the willingness and ability of the purchaser or lessor to pay the Special Tax when due.

Special Tax Delinquencies
Special Taxes are the primary source for the repayment of the 2025 Bonds, and delinquencies could result in a draw on the 2023 Reserve Account and, if the 2023 Reserve Account were to be depleted, could cause a default in payment on the 2025 Bonds.

Under provisions of the Act, the Special Taxes, from which funds necessary for the payment of principal of, and interest on, the 2025 Bonds are derived, are custom arily billed to the properties within the District on the ad valorem property tax bills sent to owners of such properties. The Act currently provides that such Special Tax installments are due and payable and are subject to the same lien priority in the case of delinquency as are ad valorem property tax installments.

See “SECURITY AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE 2025 BONDS — Covenant to Commence Foreclosure Proceedings,” for a discussion of the provisions which apply, and procedures which the District is obligated to follow under the Fiscal Agent Agreement, in the event of delinquencies in the payment of Special Taxes. See “THE DISTRICT—Special Tax Levies and De linquencies” for a history of Special Tax delinquency rates in the District. See “SPECIAL RISK FACTORS — Bankruptcy and Foreclosure” below, for a discussion of the policy of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation regarding the payment of special taxes and assessments and limitations on the District’s ability to foreclose on the lien of the Special Taxes in certain circumstances.

Under the Act, the City Council as the legislative body of the District may reserve to itself the right and authority to allow the owner of any taxable parcel to tender a 2025 Bond in full or partial payment of any installment of the Special Taxes or the interest or pena lties thereon. A 2025 Bond so te ndered is to be accepted at par and credit is to be given for any interest accrued thereon to the date of the tender. Thus, if 2025 Bonds can be purchased in the secondary market at a discount, it may be to the advantage of an owner of a taxable parcel to pay the Special Taxes applicable thereto by tendering a 2025 Bond. Such a practice would decrease the cash flow available to the District to make payments with respect to other 2025 Bonds then outstanding; and, unless the practice was limited by the District, the Special Taxes paid in cash could be insufficient to pay the debt service due with respect to such other 2025 Bonds. In order to provide some protection against the potential adverse impact on cash flows which might be caused by the tender of 2025 Bonds in payment of Special Taxes, the Fiscal Agent Agreement includes a covenant pursuant to which the District will not authorize owners of taxable parcels to satisfy Special Tax obligations by the tender of 2025 Bonds unless the District shall have first obtained a report of an Independent Financial Consultant certifying that doing so would not result in the District having insufficient Special Tax revenues to pay the principal of and interest on all Outstanding 2025 Bonds when due.

Payment of the Special Tax is not a Personal Obligation of the Owners An owner of a taxable parcel is not personally obligated to pay the Special Tax. Rather, the Special Tax is an obligation which is secured only by a lien against the taxable parcel. If the value of a taxable parcel is not sufficient, taking into account other liens imposed by public agencies, to secure fully the Special Tax, the District has no recourse against the owner.

49 297896962.3
Appraised and Assessed Valuations; Value-to-Lien Ratios The value of taxable property within the District is an important factor in evaluating the investment quality of the 2025 Bonds. In the event that a property owner de faults in the payment of Special Tax installments, the District’s only remedy is to judicially foreclose on that property. Prospective purchasers of the 2025 Bonds should not assume that the parcels of appraised property within the District could be sold for the appraised or assessed values described in this Official Statement at a foreclosure sale for delinquent Special Tax installments or for an amount adequate to pay delinquent Spec ial Tax installments. Reductions in property values within the District due to a downturn in the economy or the real estate market, events such as earthquakes, droughts, or floods, stricter land use regulations, threatened or endangered species or other events may adversely impact the security underlying the Special Taxes.

The values of the 355 parcels of appraised taxable property set forth in the various tables herein are based upon the property values determined by the Appraiser. The Appraisal Report was prepared for the purpose of estimating the market value of such property as of April 4, 2025 in its as is condition on the basis of certain assumptions and limiting conditions. The appraised values for the completed-closed homes were not determined on a bulk sale basis, and value may be s ubstantially less if all the properties were subject to foreclosure at the same time.

Prospective purchasers of the 2025 Bonds should not assu me, however, that such parcels could be sold for the appraised amount described herein at the present time or at a foreclosure sale for delinquent Special Taxes.

See the Appraisal Report included as Appendix G hereto for a brief description of the analysis used and assumptions made by the Appraiser. The actual value of the property is subject to future events that might render invalid the assumptions relied upon by the Appraiser in determining the appraised value.

No assurance can be given that the estimated valu e-to-lien ratios as set forth in “THE DISTRICT — Value-to-Lien Ratios” will be maintained over time. As discussed herein, many factors that are beyond the control of the District could adversely affect the property values within the District. The District does not have any control over the amount of additional indebted ness that may be issued by other pub lic agencies, the payment of which through the levy of a tax or an assessment is on a parity with the Special Taxes. A decrease in the assessed values in the District or an increase in the indebtedness secured by taxes and amounts with parity liens on property in the District, or both, could result in a lowering of the value- to-lien ratios of the property in the District. See “THE DISTRICT — Value-to-Lien Ratios” herein.

No assurance can be given that any bid will be received for a parcel with delinquent Special Taxes offered for sale at foreclosure or, if a bid is received, that such bid will be sufficient to pay all delinquent Special Taxes.

See “SECURITY AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE 2025 BONDS —Covenant to Commence Foreclosure Proceedings.”
FDIC/Federal Government Interests in Properties
The ability of the District to collect interest and penalties specified by the Act and to foreclose the lien of delinquent Special Taxes may be limited in certain respect s with regard to parcels in which the FDIC, or other federal government entities such as Fannie Mae, Freddi e Mac, the Drug Enforcemen t Agency, the Internal Revenue Service or other federal agency, has or obtains an interest.

In the case of FDIC, in the event that any financia l institution making a loan which is secured by parcels is taken over by the FDIC and the appli cable Special Tax is not paid, the remedies available to the District may be constrained. The FDIC’s policy statement regarding the payment of state and local real property taxes (the “Policy Statement”) provides that taxes other than ad valorem taxes which are secured by a valid lien in effect before the FDIC acquired an interest in a property will be paid unless the FDIC determines that abandonment of its interests is appropriate. The Policy Statement provid es that the FDIC generally w ill not pay installments of

50 297896962.3
non-ad valorem taxes which are levied after the time the FDIC acquires its fee interest, nor will the FDIC recognize the validity of any lien to secure payment except in cert ain cases where the Resolution Trust Corporation had an interest in property on or prior to December 31, 1995. Moreover, the Policy Statement provides that, with respect to parcels on which the FDIC holds a mortgage lien, the FDIC will not permit its lien to be foreclosed out by a taxing authority without its specific consent, nor will the FDIC pay or recognize liens for any penalties, fines or similar claims imposed for the non-payment of taxes.

The FDIC has taken a position similar to that expr essed in the Policy Statement in legal proceedings brought against Orange County in United States Bankruptcy Court and in Federal District Court. The Bankruptcy Court issued a ruling in favor of the FDIC on certain of such claims. Orange County appealed that ruling, and the FDIC cross-appealed. On August 28, 2001, the Ninth Circ uit Court of Appeals issued a ruling favorable to the FDIC except with respect to the payment of pre-receivership liens based upon delinquent property tax.

The District is unable to predict what effect the a pplication of the Policy Statement would have in the event of a delinquency with respect to parcels in which the FDIC has or obtains an interest, although prohibiting the lien of the FDIC to be foreclosed out at a judicial foreclosure sale would prevent or delay the foreclosure sale.

In the case of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, in the event a parcel of taxable property is owned by a federal government entity or federal government sponsored entity, such as Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac, or a private deed of trust secured by a parcel of taxable property is ow ned by a federal government en tity or federal government sponsored entity, such as Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac, the ability to foreclose on the parcel or to collect delinquent Special Taxes may be limited. Federal courts have held that, based on the supremacy clause of the United States Constitution, in the absence of Congressional intent to th e contrary, a state or local agency cannot foreclose to collect delinquent taxes or assessments if foreclosure woul d impair the federal government interest. This means that, unless Congress has otherwise provided, if a federal government entity owns a parcel of taxable property but does not pay taxes and assessments levied on the parcel (including Special Taxes), the applicable state and local governments cannot foreclose on the parcel to collect the delinquent taxes and assessments.

Moreover, unless Congress has otherwise provided, if th e federal government has a mortgage interest in the parcel and the District wishes to foreclose on the pa rcel as a result of delinquent Special Taxes, the property cannot be sold at a foreclosure sale unless it can be sold for an amount sufficient to pay delinquent taxes and assessments on a parity with the Special Taxes and preserve the federal government’s mortgage interest. For a discussion of risks associated with taxable parcels within the District becoming owned by the federal government, federal government entities or federal government sponsored entities, see “— Insufficiency of Special Taxes .” The District’s remedies may also be limited in the case of delinquent Special Taxes with respect to parcels in which other federal agencies (such as the Internal Revenue Service and the Drug Enforcement Administration) have or obtain an interest.

Bankruptcy and Foreclosure
Bankruptcy, insolvency, and other laws generally affe cting creditors’ rights could adversely impact the interests of Beneficial Owners of the 2025 Bonds. Th e payment of property owners’ taxes and the ability of the District to foreclose the lien of a delinquent unpaid Special Tax pursuant to its covenant to pursue judicial foreclosure proceedings may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or other laws generally affecting creditors’ rights or by the laws of the State relating to judi cial foreclosure. See “SECURITY AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE 2025 BONDS — Covenant to Commen ce Foreclosure Proceedings.” In addition, the prosecution of a foreclosure could be delayed due to ma ny reasons, including crowded local court calendars or lengthy procedural delays.

Although a bankruptcy proceeding would not cause the Special Taxes to become extinguished, the amount of any Special Tax lien could be modified if the value of the property falls below the value of the lien. If the value

51 297896962.3
of the property is less than the lien, such excess amount could be treated as an unsecured claim by the bankruptcy court. In addition, bankruptcy of a property owner could result in a delay in prosecuting Superior Court foreclosure proceedings. Such delay would increase the likelihood of a delay or default in payment of delinquent Special Tax installments and the possibility of delinquent Special Tax installments not being paid in full.

The various legal opinions to be delivered concurre ntly with the delivery of the 2025 Bonds (including Bond Counsel’s approving legal opinion) will be qualified, as to the enforceability of the various legal instruments, by moratorium, bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency or other similar laws affec ting the rights of creditors generally.

Moreover, the ability of the District to commence and prosecute enforcement proceedings may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency and other laws generally aff ecting creditors’ rights (such as the Soldiers’ and Sailors’ Relief Act of 1940) and by the laws of the State relating to judicial foreclosure.

No Acceleration Provision
The 2025 Bonds do not contain a provision allowing for the acceleration of the 2025 Bonds in the event of a payment default or other default under the 2025 Bonds or the Fiscal Agent Agreement.

Inflation Reduction Act
Changes enacted by federal tax legislation (the Public Law No. 217-169, also referred to as the “Inflation Reduction Act”) were enacted into law on August 16, 2022. The Inflation Reduction Act (H.R. 5376, 117th Congress) includes a 15% alternative minimum tax to be imposed on the “adjusted financial statement income,” as defined in the Inflation Reduction Act, of certain corporations for tax years beginning after December 31, 2022.

Interest on the 2025 Bonds will be included in the “adjusted financial statement income” of such corporations for purposes of computing such alternative minimum tax.

IRS Audit of Tax-Exempt Securities Issues
The IRS has initiated an expanded program for the auditing or examination of tax-exempt securities issues, including both random and targeted audits. It is possible that the 2025 Bonds w ill be selected for audit or examination by the IRS. It is also possible that the mark et value of the 2025 Bonds might be affected as a result of such an audit of the 2025 Bonds (or by an audit of similar bonds or securities).

Loss of Tax Exemption
As discussed under the caption “TAX MATTERS,” interest on the 2025 Bonds could become includable in gross income for federal income tax purposes retroactiv e to the date of issuance of the 2025 Bonds as a result of a failure by the District to comply with certain provisions of the Code. In addition, the introduction or enactment of any of legislation could adversely affect the market value or liquidity of the 2025 Bonds. Should an event of taxability occur, the 2025 Bonds are not subject to early redemption and will remain out standing to maturity or until redeemed under the redemption provisions of the Fiscal Agent Agreement.

Limitations on Remedies
Remedies available to the Beneficial Owners of th e 2025 Bonds may be limited by a variety of factors and may be inadequate to assure the timely payment of principal of and interest on the 2025 Bonds or to preserve the tax-exempt status of the 2025 Bonds.

Bond Counsel has limited its opinion as to the enfor ceability of the 2025 Bonds and of the Fiscal Agent Agreement to the extent that enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, fraudulent conveyance, or transfer, moratorium, or other similar laws affecting generally the enforcement of creditors’ rights,

52 297896962.3
by equitable principles and by the exercise of judicial discr etion. The lack of availability of certain remedies or the limitation of remedies may entail risks of delay, limita tion, or modification of the rights of the Beneficial Owners of the 2025 Bonds.

No Ratings and Limited Secondary Market
The District has not applied to have the 2025 Bonds rated by any nationally recognized bond rating company and it does not expect to do so in the future.

There can be no guarantee that ther e will be a secondary market for the 2025 Bonds or, if a secondary market exists, that the 2025 Bonds can be sold at all or for any particular price. Although the District has committed to provide certain financia l and operating information on an annua l basis, there can be no assurance that such information will be available to Bene ficial Owners on a timely basis. See “CONTINUING DISCLOSURE.” The failure to provide the required annual financial information does not give rise to monetary damages but merely an action for specific performance. Occasionally, because of general market conditions, lack of current information, or because of adverse history or economic prospects connected with a particular issue, secondary marketing practices in connection with a particul ar issue are suspended or terminated. Additionally, prices of issues for which a market is being made will de pend upon then prevailing ci rcumstances. Such prices could be substantially different from the original purchase price.

Proposition 218
An initiative measure commonly referred to as the “Ri ght to Vote on Taxes Act” (the “Initiative”) was approved by the voters of the State of California at the November 5, 1996 general election. The Initiative added Article XIIIC and Article XIIID to the California Cons titution. According to the “Title and Summary” of the Initiative prepared by the California Attorney General, the Initiative limits “the authority of local governments to impose taxes and property-related assess ments, fees and charges.” The provis ions of the Initia tive have not yet been interpreted by the courts, although several lawsuits have been filed requesting the courts to interpret various aspects of the Initiative. The Initiative could potentially impact the Special Taxes available to the District to pay the principal of and interest on the 2025 Bonds as described below.

Among other things, Section 3 of Article XIII states that “. . . the initiative power shall not be prohibited or otherwise limited in matters of reducing or repealing any local tax, assessment, fee or charge.” The Act provides for a procedure which includes notice, hearing, protest and voting requirements to a lter the rate and method of apportionment of an existing special tax. However, the Act prohibits a legislative body from adopting any resolution to reduce the rate of any special tax or terminat e the levy of any special tax pledged to repay any debt incurred pursuant to the Act unless such legislative body determines that the reduction or termination of the special tax would not interfere with the timely retirement of that debt. On July 1, 1997, a bill was signed into law by the Governor of the State enacting Government Code Section 5854, which states that:
“Section 3 of Article XIIIC of the California C onstitution, as adopted at the November 5, 1996, general election, shall not be construed to mean th at any owner or beneficial owner of a municipal security, purchased before or after that date, assumes the risk of, or in any way consents to, any action by initiative measure that constitutes an impairment of contractual rights protected by Section 10 of Article I of the United States Constitution.”
Accordingly, although the matter is not free from doubt, it is likely that the Initiative has not conferred on the voters the power to repeal or reduce the Special Ta xes if such reduction would interfere with the timely retirement of the 2025 Bonds.

It may be possible, however, for voters or the City Council acting as the legislative body of the District to reduce the Special Taxes in a manner which does not interfere with the timely repayment of the 2025 Bonds, but

53 297896962.3
which does reduce the maximum amount of Special Taxes that may be levied in any year below the existing levels.

Furthermore, no assurance can be given with respect to the future levy of the Special Taxes in amounts greater than the amount necessary for the timely retirement of th e 2025 Bonds. Therefore, no assurance can be given with respect to the levy of Special Taxes for Administrative Expenses. Nevertheless, to the maximum extent that the law permits it to do so, the District will covenant in the Fiscal Agent Agreement that it will not initiate proceedings under the Act to reduce the maximum Special Ta x rates on parcels within the District to an amount that is less than the sum of the estimated Administrative Expenses and 110% of gross debt service in each future Bond Year on all Bonds to remain Outstanding after the reduction is approved. In connection with the foregoing covenant, the District has made a fi nding and determination that any elimination or reduction of Special Taxes below the foregoing level would interfe re with the timely retirement of the 2025 Bonds. The District also will covenant in the Fiscal Agent Agreement that, in the event an initiative is adopted which purports to alter the Rate and Method, it will commence and pursue legal action in order to preserve its ability to comply with the foregoing covenant. However, no assurance can be given as to the enforceability of the foregoing covenants.

The interpretation and application of the Initiative will ultimately be determined by the courts with respect to a number of the matters discussed above, and it is not possible at this time to predict with certainty the outcome of such determination or the timeliness of any remedy afforded by the courts. See “SPECIAL RISK FACTORS — Limitations on Remedies.”
Litigation regarding Community Facilities Districts
Shapiro. The California Court of Appeal, Fourth Appellate District, Division One, issued its opinion in City of San Diego v. Melvin Shapiro (2014) 228 Cal.App.4th 756 (the “San Diego Decision”). The case involved a Convention Center Facilities District (the “CCFD”) established by the City of San Diego (“San Diego”). The CCFD is a financing district much li ke a community facilities district established under the provisions of the Act. The CCFD is comprised of all of the real property in San Diego. However, the special tax to be levied within the CCFD was to be levied only on hotel properties located within the CCFD.

The election authorizing the special tax was limited to ow ners of hotel properties and lessees of real property owned by a governmental entity on which a hotel is located. Thus, the election was not a registered voter election.

Such approach to determining who would constitute the qualified electors of the CCFD was modeled after Section 53326(c) of the Act, which generally provides that, if a special tax will not be apportioned in any tax year on residential property, the legislative body may provide that the vote shall be by the landowners of the proposed district whose property would be subject to the special tax. The Court held that the CCFD special tax election was invalid under the California Constitution because Article XIIIA, Secti on 4 thereof and Article XIIIC, Se ction 2 thereof require that the electors in such an election be the registered voters within the district.

Horizon. The Sacramento County Superior Court issued a ruling in Horizon Capital Investments, LLC v. City of Sacramento et al. (Case No. 34-2017-80002661), which was a case involving an election to approve the levy of a special tax within a community facilities district (“CFD”) formed under the Act.

In 2017, the City of Sacramento initiated proceedings to form a CFD to finance certain costs to operate and maintain a streetcar line. As permitted by the Act, the proposed district included non-contiguous parcels of non- residential property. Because there were fewer than 12 registered voters residing within the territory of the proposed CFD, the City Council submitted the special tax proposed to be levied within the proposed CFD to the owners of land within the proposed CFD, as required by the Act. The proposed special tax received the requisite two-thirds vote in the landowner election.

Petitioners Horizon Capital Investments, LLC et al. filed a writ of mandate and complaint for reverse validation and declaratory relief. Petitioners argued, and the superior court agreed in its final ruling, that under section 4(a) of article XIII A of the California Constitution (which provides that “Cities, Counties an d special districts, by a two-thirds vote of the qualified electors of such district [sic], may impose special taxes on such district…”) the phrase “qualified electors” means the registered voters of the entire City of Sacramento and not just the owners of the property

54 297896962.3
within the boundaries of the proposed CFD. Citing the San Diego Decision, the tentative ruling states that the phrase “qualified electors of the district” refers to the registered voters of the entity imposing the special tax, which in this case was the City of Sacramento. Because the vote within the proposed CFD was by landowners only and not by all registered voters in the City of Sacramento, the final ruling states that the special tax is invalid.

The superior court’s final ruling is not binding upon other courts within the State and does not directly apply to the District, the Special Taxes, or the 2025 Bonds. The City of Sacramento did not appeal the superior court’s ruling.

Special Tax Election in the District. With respect to the San Diego Decision, the facts of such case show that there were thousands of registered voters within th e CCFD (viz., all of the registered voters in San Diego).

The election held in the District had less than 12 regist ered voters at the time of the election to authorize the Special Taxes. In the San Diego Decision, the court e xpressly stated that it was not addressing the validity of landowner voting to impose special taxes pursuant to the Act in situations where there are fewer than 12 registered voters. Thus, by its terms, the court’s holding in the San Diego Decision does not apply to the Special Tax election in the District. Moreover, Section 53341 of the Act provides that any “action or proceeding to attack, review, set aside, void or annul the levy of a special tax…shall be co mmenced within 30 days after the special tax is approved by the voters.” Similarly, Section 53359 of the Act pr ovides that any action to determine the validity of bonds issued pursuant to the Act be brought within 30 days of the voters approving the issuance of such bonds. The petitioners in Horizon filed the writ of mandate within 30 days of the landowner election. Voters in the District approved the Special Tax on September 13, 2022. Based on Sections 53341 and 53359 of the Act and analysis of existing laws, regulations, rulings and court decisions, the District believes that no successful challenge to the Special Tax being levied in accordance with the Rate and Method may now be brought.

Ballot Initiatives
Articles XIIIC and XIIID were adopted pursuant to measures qualified for the ballot pursuant to California’s constitutional initiative process. On March 6, 1995, in the case of Rossi v. Brown, the State Supreme Court held that an initiative can repeal a tax ordinance and prohibit the imposition of further such taxes and that the exemption from the referendum requirements does not apply to initiatives. From time to time, other initiative measures could be adopted by California voters. The a doption of any such initiative might place limitations on the ability of the State, the City, or local districts to increase revenues or to increase appropriations. See “SPECIAL RISK FACTORS — Risks of Real Esta te Secured Investments Generally” herein.

Extraordinary Redemption from Prepaid Special Taxes
The 2025 Bonds are subject to redemption in whole or in part from Special Tax Prepayments on any Interest Payment Date (see “THE 2025 BONDS - Redemption”), which could occur if an owner of a taxable parcel chooses to prepay all or a portion of its Special Tax. The resulting redemption of 2025 Bonds that were purchased at a price greater than the applicable redemption price could reduce the otherwise expected yield on such 2025 Bonds.

Climate Change
Numerous scientific studies on global climate cha nge show that, among other effects on the global ecosystem, sea levels will rise, extreme temperatures w ill become more common, w ildfires will become more common and intense, and extreme weather events will become more frequent as a result of increasing global temperatures attributable to atmospheric pollution. For example, the Fourth National Climate Assessment, published by the U.S. Global Change Research Program, in November 2018 (NCA4) finds that more frequent and intense extreme weather and climate-related events, as well as changes in average climate conditions, are expected to continue to damage infrastructure, ecosystems and soci al systems over the next 25 to 100 years. Sea level rise may particularly impact coastal areas throughout California . No assurance can be given that climate change in the future that will not impact the District or the extent to which climate change may impact the property in the District.

55 297896962.3
Cybersecurity
As a recipient and provider of personal, private, and sensitive information, the City faces multiple cyber threats including, but not limited to, hacking, viruses, malware and other attacks on computers and other sensitive digital networks and systems. D espite security measures, information technology and infrastructure may be vulnerable to attacks by hackers or breached due to employee error, malfeasance or other disruptions. Increasingly, businesses and government entities are being targeted by cyber-attacks seeking to obtain confidential data or disrupt critical services. A rapidly changing cyber risk landscape may introduce new vulnerabilities which hackers may exploit in attempts to effect breaches or service disruptions. Any such breach could compromise networks and the information stored there could be disrupted, accessed, publicly disclosed, lost or stolen. Any such disruption, access, disclosure or other loss of information could result in legal claims or proceedings, liability under laws that protect the privacy of personal inform ation, regulatory penalties, operations and the services provided which could ultimately adversely affect the Special Taxes.

No assurance can be given that the security and operational control measures of the City will be successful in guarding against any and each cyber th reat or breach, or that any such attack will not materially impact the operations or finances of the City or the District, or the administration of the 2025 Bonds. Although the City maintains insurance coverage for cyber security losses, should a successful breach ever occur, the cost of any such disruption or remedying damage caused by future attacks could be substantial and in excess of such insurance coverage.

The City is also reliant on other entities and service providers in connection with the administration of the 2025 Bonds, including without limitation the County tax collector for the levy and collection of Special Taxes, the Fiscal Agent, and the dissemination agent. No assurance can be given that the City, the District and these other entities will not be affected by cyber threats and a ttacks in a manner that may adversely affect the Bond owners.

The City actively manages its networks and systems to ensure that City systems are properly secured and protected, however, no assurances can be given that the City’s security and operational control measures will be successful in guarding against any and each cyber threat and attack. To date, the City has not experienced any cyberattacks that have resulted in ma jor operational disruptions or financia l consequences. The City currently maintains insurance coverage with respect to certain information security and privacy liability claims.

CONTINUING DISCLOSURE
The District has covenanted for the benefit of the Owners and Beneficial Owners of the 2025 Bonds pursuant to a Continuing Disclosure Agreement, dated th e date of issuance of the 2025 Bonds (the “Issuer Continuing Disclosure Agreement”), by and between th e District and Webb Municipal Finance, LLC, as Dissemination Agent, to provide certain financial inform ation and operating data relating to the District (the “Annual Report”) no later than March 1 following the end of each fiscal year, commencing with the report for Fiscal Year 2024-25, and to provide notices of the occurre nce of certain enumerated events through the EMMA System. The specific nature of the information to be contained in the Annual Report and the enumerated events is set forth in APPENDIX F – “FORM OF CONTINUI NG DISCLOSURE UNDERTAKING.” The initial Annual Report due on March 1, 2026 may incorporate this Official Statement by reference in lieu of required items other than filing of the City’s annual comprehensive financial report (“ACFR”).

The City and its related governmental entities have ma de other undertakings pursuant to the Rule in connection with prior debt issuances. A review of comp liance by the City over the past five years indicates the following:
(A) City of Rialto Community Facilities District No . 2006-1 (Elm Park) (i) failed to timely file under an existing undertaking the City’s ACFR and certain financial information and operating data for Fiscal Year 2020-

56 297896962.3
21 and did not successfully file the City’s ACFR under a ll CUSIP numbers as required, (ii) failed to timely file the City’s ACFR for Fiscal Years 2021- 22 through 2023-24, and (iii) failed to timely file the City’s ACFR for Fiscal Year 2019-20 when available after filing the unaudited City ACFR; (B) City of Rialto Community Facilities District No. 2019-1 (Foothill/Spruce) failed to timely file the City’s ACFR for Fiscal Years 2021-22 through 2023-24; and (C) City of Rialto Community Facilities District No . 2020-1 (El Rancho Verde) failed to timely file the City’s ACFR for Fiscal Years 2022-23 and 2023-24.

Remedial filings have been made and the City a nd its related governmental entities are in compliance with their previous undertakings. The District believes that its procedures with the Dissemination Agent will be sufficient in the normal due course to assure substantia l compliance with the Issuer Continuing Disclosure Agreement with respect to the 2025 Bonds.

The Underwriter does not consider the Developer to be an “obligated person” with respect to the 2025 Bonds for purposes of the Rule.

TAX MATTERS
Federal Tax Exemption
In the opinion of Norton Rose Fulbright US LLP, Los Angeles, California, Bond Counsel to the District, under existing statutes, regulations, rulings and judicial decisions, and assuming compliance by the District with certain covenants in the Fiscal Agent Agreement, the Tax Certificate and other documents pertaining to the 2025 Bonds and requirements of the Code regarding the use, expenditure and investment of proceeds of the 2025 Bonds and the timely payment of certain investment earnings to the United States, interest on the 2025 Bonds is not included in the gross income of the owners of the 2025 Bonds for federal income tax purposes. Failure to comply with such covenants and requirements may cause inter est on the 2025 Bonds to be included in gross income retroactive to the date of issuance of the 2025 Bonds.

In the further opinion of Bond Counsel, interest on the 2025 Bonds is not treated as an item of tax preference for purposes of the federal alternative minimum tax on individuals. Bond Counsel expresses no opinion regarding the applicability of the federal corporate altern ative minimum tax to the adjusted financial statement income of certain corporations.

Ownership of, or the receipt of interest on, tax-exempt obligations may result in collateral federal income tax consequences to certain taxpayers, including, without limitation, financial institutions, property and casualty insurance companies, certain foreign corporations doing business in the United States, certain S corporations with excess passive income, individual recipients of Social S ecurity or Railroad Retirement benefits, taxpayers that may be deemed to have incurred or continued indebtedness to purchase or carry tax-exempt obligations and taxpayers who may be eligible for the earned income tax credit. Bond Counsel expresses no opinion with respect to any collateral tax consequences a nd, accordingly, prospective purchaser s of the 2025 Bonds should consult their tax advisors as to the applicability of any collateral tax consequences.

Certain requirements and procedures contained or re ferred to in the Fiscal Agent Agreement, the Tax Certificate or other documents pertaining to the 2025 Bonds may be changed, and certain actions may be taken or not taken, under the circumstances and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in such documents, upon the advice or with the approving opinion of counsel nationally recognized in the area of tax-exempt obligations. Bond Counsel expresses no opinion as to the effect of any cha nge to any document pertaining to the 2025 Bonds or of any action taken or not taken where such change is made or action is taken or not taken without the approval of Norton Rose Fulbright US LLP or in reliance upon the advi ce of counsel other than Norton Rose Fulbright US

57 297896962.3
LLP with respect to the exclusion from gross income of the interest on the 2025 Bonds for federal income tax purposes.

Bond Counsel’s opinion is not a guarantee of result, but represents its legal judgment based upon its review of existing statutes, regulations, published ruli ngs and judicial decisions and the representations and covenants of the District described above. No ruling has been sought from the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) with respect to the matters addressed in the opinion of Bond Counsel, and Bond Counsel’s opinion is not binding on the IRS. The IRS has an ongoing program of examining the tax-exempt st atus of the interest on municipal obligations. If an examination of the 2025 Bonds is commenced, under current procedures the IRS is likely to treat the District as the “taxpayer,” and the owners of the 2025 Bonds would have no right to participate in the examination process. In responding to or defending an examination of the tax-exempt status of the interest on the 2025 Bonds, the District may have different or conflicting interests from the owners. Additionally, public awareness of any future examination of the 2025 Bonds could adversely affect the value and liquidity of the 2025 Bonds during the pendency of the examination, regardless of its ultimate outcome.

To the extent a purchaser acquires a 2025 Bond at a price in excess of the amount payable at its maturity, such excess will constitute “bond premiu m” under the Code. The Code and applicable Treasury Regulations provide generally that bond premium on a tax-exempt obligation is amortized over the remaining term of the obligation (or a shorter period in the case of certain callable obligations) based on the obligation's yield to maturity (or shorter period in the case of certain calla ble obligations). The amount of premium so amortized reduces the owner’s basis in such obligation for federal income tax purposes, though such amortized premium is not deductible for federal income tax purposes. This reduction in basis will increase the amount of any gain (or decrease the amount of any loss) recognized for fede ral income tax purposes upon a sale or other taxable disposition of the obligation. Bond Counsel is not opining on the accounting for bond premium or the consequence to a 2025 Bond purchaser of purchasing a 2025 Bond with bond premium. Accordingly, persons considering the purchase of 2025 Bonds with bond premium should consu lt their own tax advisors with respect to the determination of bond premium on such 2025 Bonds for federal income tax purposes and with respect to the state and local tax consequences of owning and disposing of such 2025 Bonds.

Original Issue Discount. The excess, if any, of the stated redemption price at maturity of 2025 Bonds of a particular maturity over the initial offering price to the public of the 2025 Bonds of that maturity at which a substantial amount of the 2025 Bonds of that maturity is so ld to the public is “original issue discount.” Original issue discount accruing on a 2025 Bond is treated as interest excluded from the gross income of the owner thereof for federal income tax purposes under the same conditions and limitations as are applicable to interest payable on such 2025 Bond. Original issue discount on a 2025 Bond of a particular maturity purchased pursuant to the initial public offering at the initial public offering price at which a substantial amount of the 2025 Bonds of that maturity is sold to the public accrues on a semiannual basis over the term of the 2025 Bond on the basis of a constant yield; and within each semiannual period accrues on a ratable daily basis. The amount of original issue discount on a 2025 Bond accruing during each period is added to the adju sted basis of such 2025 Bond, which will affect the amount of taxable gain upon disposition (including sale, redemption or payment on maturity) of such 2025 Bond.

The Code includes certain provisions relating to the accr ual of original issue discount in the case of purchasers that purchase 2025 Bonds other than at the initial offeri ng price. Bond Counsel is not opining on the accounting for or consequence to a 2025 Bond purchaser of pur chasing a 2025 Bond with original issue discount.

Accordingly, persons considering the purchase of 2025 B onds with original issue discount should consult their own tax advisors with respect to the determination of original issue discount on such 2025 Bonds for federal income tax purposes and with respect to the state and lo cal tax consequences of owning and disposing of such 2025 Bonds.

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding
Interest paid on the 2025 Bonds will be subject to information reporting in a manner similar to interest paid on taxable obligations. Although such reporting requirement does not, in and of itself, affect the excludability of such interest from gross income for federal income tax purposes, such reporting requirement causes the payment of interest on the 2025 Bonds to be subject to backup withholding if such interest is paid to beneficial owners who (a) are not “exempt recipients,” and (b) either fail to provide certain identifying information (such as the beneficial owner’s taxpayer identification number) in the required manner or have been identified by the IRS as having failed to report all interest and dividends re quired to be shown on their income tax returns. Generally, individuals are not exempt recipients, whereas corporations and certain other entities are exempt recipients. Amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules from a payment to a beneficial owner are allowed as a refund or credit against such beneficial owner’s federal income tax liability so long as the required information is furnished to the IRS.

State Tax Exemption
In the further opinion of Bond Counsel, interest on the 2025 Bond is exempt from personal income taxes imposed by the State of California.

Future Developments
Existing law may change to reduce or eliminate the benefit to owners of the 2025 Bonds of the exclusion of the interest on the 2025 Bonds from gross income fo r federal income tax purposes or of the exemption of interest on the 2025 Bonds from State of California personal income taxation. Any proposed legislation, whether or not enacted, or administrative action, whether or not taken, could also affect the value and marketability of the 2025 Bonds. Prospective purchasers of the 2025 Bonds should consult their own tax advisors with respect to any proposed or future change in tax law.

A copy of the form of opinion of Bond Counsel relating to the 2025 Bonds is included in “APPENDIX B” hereto.

Re: $[principal amount] City of Rialto Community Fa cilities District No. 2020-1 (El Rancho Verde) Special Tax Bonds, Series 2025
Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as bond counsel to the City of Rialto Community Facilities District No. 2020-1 (El Rancho Verde) (the “District”) in connection with the issuance of $[principal amount] aggregate principal amount of City of Rialto Community Facilities District No. 2020-1 (El Rancho Verde) Special Tax Bonds, Series 2025 (the “2025 Bonds”), pursuant to the provisions of the Mello-Roos Community Facilities Act of 1982, as amended, being Chapter 2.5, Part 1, Division 2, Title 5, of the Government Code of the State of California (the “Act”), and pursuant to a Fiscal Agent Agreement, dated as of October 1, 2023, as supplemented by a First Supplemental Fiscal Agent Agreement, dated as of July 1, 2025 (as supplemented, the “Fiscal Agent Agreement”), each by and between the District and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Associati on, as fiscal agent (the “Fiscal Agent”). Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Fiscal Agent Agreement.

As bond counsel, we have examined applicable provisi ons of the Act and copies certified to us as being true and complete copies of the proceedings of the City of Rialto (the “City”) and the District, acting through the City Council of the City, as its legislative body, for the au thorization and issuance of the 2025 Bonds, including the Fiscal Agent Agreement and the Tax Certificate execute d by the District in connection with the issuance of the 2025 Bonds (the “Tax Certificate”).

B-2
297896962.3

4. Assuming compliance by the District and the City with certain covenants in the Indenture and the Tax Certificate and other documents pertaini ng to the 2025 Bonds and requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”) rega rding the use, expenditure and investment of proceeds of the 2025 Bonds and the timely payment of certain investment earnings to the United States, interest on the 2025 Bonds is not include d in gross income of the owners of the 2025 Bonds for purposes of federal income taxation.

The opinions expressed in paragraphs 1 and 2 above are qualified to the extent the enforceability of the 2025 Bonds and the Fiscal Agent Agreement may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, debt adjustment, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws or equitable principles relating to or limiting creditors’ rights generally or as to the availability of any particul ar remedy.

BOOK-ENTRY ONLY SYSTEM

None of the District, the Fiscal Agent or the Underw riter can or do give any assurances that DTC, the Participants or others will distribute payments of principal of or interest on the 2025 Bonds paid to DTC or its nominee as the registered owner, or will distribute any prepayment notices or other notices, to the Beneficial Owners, or that they will do so on a timely basis or w ill serve and act in the manner described in this Official Statement. None of the District, the Fiscal Agent or the Underwriter are responsible or liable for the failure of DTC or any Participant to make any payment or give any notice to a Beneficial Owner with respect to the 2025 Bonds or an error or delay relating thereto.

The following information concerning The Depository Trust Company, New York, New York (“DTC”) and DTC’s book-entry system has been obtained from sources that the District and the Underwriter believe to be reliable, but neither the District or the Underwriter take responsibility for the accuracy thereof. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined he rein shall have the meanings set fort h in this Official Statement and in APPENDIX C — “SUMMARY OF FISCAL AGENT AGREEMENT.”
DTC will act as securities depository for the 20 25 Bonds. The 2025 Bonds will be issued as fully registered securities registered in the name of Cede & Co. (DTC’s partnership nominee) or such other name as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. One fully-registered Bond certificate will be issued for each maturity of the 2025 Bonds, each in the aggregate pr incipal amount of such maturity, and will be deposited with DTC.

DTC, the world’s largest securities depository, is a limited-purpose trust company organized under the New York Banking Law, a “banking organization” within the meaning of the New York Banking Law, a member of the Federal Reserve System, a “clearing corporati on” within the meaning of the New York Uniform Commercial Code, and a “clearing agency” registered pursuant to the provisions of Section 17A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. DTC holds a nd provides asset servicing for over 3.6 million issues of U.S. and non-U.S. equity issues, corporate and municipal debt issues, and money market instruments (from over 100 countries) that DTC’s participants (“Direct Participants”) deposit with DTC. DTC also facilitates the post trade settlement among Direct Participants of sales and other securities tran sactions in deposited securities, through electronic computerized book-entry transfers and pledges between Di rect Participants’ accounts. This eliminates the need for physical movement of securities certificates. Direct Participants include both U.S. and non-U.S. securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, clearing co rporations, and certain other organizations. DTC is a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (“DTCC”). DTCC is the holding company for DTC, National Securities Clearing Corporation and Fixed Income Clearing Corporation, all of which are registered clearing agencies. DTCC is owned by the users of its regulated subsidiaries. Access to the DTC system is also available to others such as both U.S. and non-U.S. secur ities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, and clearing corporations that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a Direct Participant, either directly or indirectly (“Indirect Participants”). DTC has an S&P Global Ratings rating of AA+.

The DTC Rules applicable to its Participants are on f ile with the Securities and Exchange Commission. More information about DTC can be found at www.dtcc.com.

Purchases of 2025 Bonds under the DTC system must be made by or through Direct Participants, which will receive a credit for the 2025 Bonds on DTC’s records. Th e ownership interest of each actual purchaser of each 2025 Bond (“Beneficial Owner”) is in turn to be record ed on the Direct and Indirect Participants’ records.

Beneficial Owners will not receive written confirmation from DTC of their purchase. Beneficial Owners are, however, expected to receive written confirmations pr oviding details of the tran saction, as well as periodic statements of their holdings, from the Direct or Indirect Participant through which the Beneficial Owner entered into the transaction. Transfers of ownership interests in the 2025 Bonds are to be accomplished by entries made on the books of Direct and Indirect Participants acting on behalf of Beneficial Owners.

E-2
297896962.3
Beneficial Owners will not receive certificates re presenting their ownership interests in 2025 Bonds, except in the event that use of the book-entry system for the 2025 Bonds is discontinued.

To facilitate subsequent transfers, all 2025 Bond s deposited by Direct Participants with DTC are registered in the name of DTC’s partnership nominee, Cede & Co., or such other name as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. The deposit of 2025 Bonds with DTC and their registration in the name of Cede & Co. or such other DTC nominee do not effect any cha nge in beneficial ownership. DTC has no knowledge of the actual Beneficial Owners of the 2025 Bonds; DTC’s records reflect only the identity of the Direct Participants to whose accounts such 2025 Bonds are credited, which ma y or may not be the Beneficial Owners. The Direct and Indirect Participants will rema in responsible for keeping account of their holdings on behalf of their customers.

Conveyance of notices and other communications by DTC to Direct Participants, by Direct Participants to Indirect Participants, and by Direct Participants and Indirect Participants to Beneficial Owners will be governed by arrangements among them, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time to time. Beneficial Owners of 2025 Bonds may wish to take certain steps to augment the transmission to them of notices of significant events with respect to the 2025 Bonds, such as redemptions, tenders, defaults, and proposed amendments to the 2025 Bond documents. For example, Beneficial Owners of 2025 Bonds may wish to ascertain that the nominee holding the 2025 Bonds for their benefit has agreed to obtain and transmit notices to Beneficial Owners. In the alternative, Beneficial Owners may wish to provide their names and addresses to the registrar and request that copies of notices be provided directly to them.

Redemption notices shall be sent to DTC. If less than all of the 2025 Bonds within an issue are being redeemed, DTC’s practice is to determine by lot the amount of the interest of each Direct Participant in such issue to be redeemed.

Neither DTC nor Cede & Co. (nor any other DTC nom inee) will consent or vote with respect to 2025 Bonds unless authorized by a Direct Participant in accordance with DTC’s MMI Procedures. Under its usual procedures, DTC mails an Omnibus Proxy to the City, as the issuer of the 2025 Bonds, as soon as possible after the record date. The Omnibus Proxy assigns Cede & Co.’s consenting or voting rights to those Direct Participants to whose accounts 2025 Bonds are credited on the record da te (identified in a listing attached to the Omnibus Proxy).

Redemption proceeds, distributions, and dividend pa yments on the 2025 Bonds will be made to Cede & Co., or such other nominee as may be requested by an au thorized representative of DTC. DTC’s practice is to credit Direct Participants’ accounts upon DTC’s receipt of funds and corresponding detail information from the City or the Fiscal Agent, on payable date in accordance with their respective holdings shown on DTC’s records.

Payments by Participants to Beneficial Owners will be governed by standing instructions and customary practices, as is the case with securities he ld for the accounts of customers in bear er form or registered in “street name,” and will be the responsibility of such Participant and not of DTC, the Fiscal Agent, or the City, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time to time. Payment of redemption proceeds, distributions, and dividend payments to Cede & Co. (or such other nominee as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC) is the responsibility of the City or the Fiscal Agent, disbursement of such payments to Direct Participants will be the responsibility of DTC, and disbursement of such payments to the Beneficial Owners will be the responsibility of Direct and Indirect Participants.

DTC may discontinue providing its services as depository with respect to the 2025 Bonds at any time by giving reasonable notice to the District or the Fiscal Agent. Under such circumstances, in the event that a successor depository is not obtained, certificates for the 2025 Bonds are required to be printed and delivered in such principal amount or amounts, in authorized denominations, and registered in whatever name or names DTC shall designate.

E-3
297896962.3
The District may decide to discontinue use of the system of book-entry-only transfers through DTC (or a successor securities depository). In that event, certificates for the 2025 Bonds will be printed and delivered in such principal amount or amounts, in authorized denominations, and registered in whatever name or names DTC shall designate.

The information in this section concerning DTC a nd DTC’s book-entry system has been obtained from sources that the District believe to be reliable, but th e District does not take any responsibility for the accuracy thereof.

Risks Regarding the Book-Entry Only System
AS LONG AS CEDE & CO. OR ITS SUCCESSOR IS THE REGISTERED HOLDER OF THE 2025 BONDS, AS NOMINEE OF DTC, REFERENCES HEREIN TO THE REGISTERED HOLDERS OF THE 2025 BONDS SHALL MEAN CEDE & CO., AS AFORESAID, AND SHALL NOT MEAN THE BENEFICIAL OWNERS OF THE 2025 BONDS. ANY FAILURE OF DTC TO ADVISE ANY PARTICIPANT, OR OF ANY

PARTICIPANT TO NOTIFY ANY BENEFICIAL OWNER, OF ANY NOTICE AND ITS CONTEXT OR

EFFECT WILL NOT AFFECT THE VALIDITY OR SUFFICIENCY OF THE PROCEEDINGS RELATING TO THE REDEMPTION OF THE 2025 BONDS CALLED FOR REDEMPTION OR OF ANY OTHER ACTION PREMISED ON SUCH NOTICE. Each person for whom a Participant acquires an interest in the 2025 Bonds, as nominee, may desire to make arrangements with such Participant to receive a credit balance in the records of such Participant, and may desire to make a rrangements with such Participant to have all notices of redemption or other communications to DTC, which may affect such person, forwarded in writing by such Participant and to receive notification of all interest payments.

NONE OF THE DISTRICT, THE FISCAL AGENT OR THE UNDERWRITER WILL HAVE ANY

RESPONSIBILITY OR OBLIGATION WITH RESPECT TO THE PAYMENTS TO THE DIRECT

PARTICIPANTS, ANY INDIRECT PARTICIPANTS OR THE BENEFICIAL OWNERS, THE SELECTION OF THE BENEFICIAL INTERESTS IN THE 2025 B ONDS TO BE REDEEMED IN THE EVENT OF REDEMPTION OF LESS THAN ALL 2025 BONDS OF A PARTICULAR MATURITY OR THE PROVISION

OF NOTICE TO THE DIRECT PARTICIPANTS, ANY INDIRECT PARTICIPANTS OR THE BENEFICIAL OWNERS WITH RESPECT TO THE 2025 BONDS. NO ASSURANCE CAN BE GIVEN BY THE DISTRICT,

THE FISCAL AGENT OR THE UNDERWRITER THAT DTC, DIRECT PARTICIPANTS, INDIRECT

PARTICIPANTS OR OTHER NOMINEES OF THE BENEFICIAL OWNERS WILL MAKE PROMPT

TRANSFER OF PAYMENTS TO THE BENEFICIAL OWNERS, THAT THEY WILL DISTRIBUTE

NOTICES, INCLUDING REDEMPTION NOTICES (REFERRED TO ABOVE), RECEIVED AS THE REGISTERED OWNER OF THE 2025 BONDS TO THE BENEFICIAL OWNERS, THAT THEY WILL DO

SO ON A TIMELY BASIS, OR THAT DTC WILL ACT IN THE MANNER DESCRIBED IN THIS OFFICIAL STATEMENT.

In the event the District determines not to con tinue the book-entry system or DTC determines to discontinue its services with respect to the 2025 Bonds, and the District does not select another qualified securities depository, the District shall deliver one or more 2025 Bonds in such principal amount or amounts, in authorized denominations, and registered in whatever name or names, as DTC shall designate. In such event, transfer and exchanges of 2025 Bonds will be governed by the provisions of the Fiscal Agent Agreement.

Attn: Scott Williams
Finance Director

Dear Mr. Williams:

In accordance with your request and authorization, I have completed an appraisal of the taxable properties within the above-referenced Community Facilities District (CFD) with assessed valuations of less than $250,000. These properties comprise 355 of the 776 total residential lots that are being developed by Lennar Homes with six separate product types of detached homes in the community called River Ranch. For the remaining 421 lots with assessed valuations of over $250,000, the 2024/2025 assessed values are reported by product type. The status of the 776 lots is summarized in the following table:

Totals 691 49 36 776 355 421

The purpose of the appraisal of the 355 lots is to estimate the separate aggregate market values of the as is condition of the properties within each of the six product types, reflecting the status of the completed-closed homes (closed builder sales), completed-unclosed homes (model homes & standing inventory), homes under construction, and vacant lots. The values are also allocated to Individual Owners (completed-closed homes) and Builder Ownership (completed-unclosed homes, homes under construction and vacant lots). In addition, this appraisal reflects the proposed CFD bond financing, as well as the effective tax rates estimated at ±1.9%, based on assessed values, and including special taxes for this CFD and other overlapping special assessments.

EXTRAORDINARY ASSUMPTIONS

1. It has been assumed that there are no soil, geologic, seismic or environmental conditions that would negatively impact the existing or planned uses of the subject properties, and all appropriate and required mitigation measures were incorporated into the land development and home construction in the community.

2. An estimate of the remaining costs and fees to get the subject lots from their as is condition to finished lot condition has been provided by the builder, and these estimates have been relied upon in this appraisal as being reasonably accurate and reliable; in addition, the valuations have reflected the proposed CFD bond financing such that the deductions of estimated remaining costs/fees do not include any amounts that are to be funded by the planned CFD bond proceeds.

10 PURPOSE AND INTENDED USE/USER OF THE APPRAISAL

The purpose of this appraisal is to estimate the market value of the as is condition of the taxable properties located within Community Facilities District No. 2020-1 of the City of Rialto (El Rancho Verde), reflecting the proposed CFD bond financing. It is intended that this Appraisal Report is to be used by the client, consisting of the City of Rialto, and other appropriate parties as part of the planned CFD bond issuance.

SCOPE OF THE APPRAISAL

It is the intent of this appraisal that all appropriate data considered pertinent in the valuation of the subject properties be collected, confirmed and reported in an Appraisal Report, in conformance with the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice and the guidelines of the California Debt and Investment Advisory Commission. The scope of work has included an identification of the appraisal problem to be solved, which in this case is the market value of the taxable subject properties in as is condition as of the date of value of the appraisal; a general inspection of the subject properties and their surroundings; obtaining of pertinent property data on the subject properties, including review of various maps and documents relating to the properties and the home development; obtaining of comparable home sales and land sales from a variety of sources; analysis of all of the data to the value conclusions; and completion of the Appraisal Report.

DATE OF VALUE (EFFECTIVE DATE OF THE APPRAISAL)

The date of value for this appraisal or the effective date of the appraisal is April 4, 2025.

PROPERTY RIGHTS APPRAISED

This appraisal is of the fee simple interest in the subject properties, subject to the CFD special tax and assessment liens.

DEFINITION OF MARKET VALUE

The most probable price, as of a specified date, in cash, or in terms equivalent to cash, or in other precisely revealed terms, for which the specified property rights should sell after reasonable exposure in a competitive market under all conditions requisite to a fair sale, with the buyer and seller each acting prudently, knowledgeably, and for self-interest, and assuming that neither is under undue duress. (The Dictionary of Real Estate Appraisal, Seventh Edition)

DEFINITION OF FEE SIMPLE INTEREST (ESTATE)

Absolute ownership unencumbered by any other interest or estate, subject only to the limitations imposed by the governmental powers of taxation, eminent domain, police power, and escheat. (The Dictionary of Real Estate Appraisal, Seventh Edition)

11 DEFINITION OF MASS APPRAISAL

The process of valuing a universe of properties as of a given date using standard methodology, employing common data, and allowing for statistical testing. (USPAP, 2020- 2021 ed.) Often associated with real property tax assessment valuation. (The Dictionary of Real Estate Appraisal, Seventh Edition)

DEFINITION OF FINISHED LOT

This term describes the condition of residential lots in a single-family subdivision for detached homes in which the lots are fully improved and ready for homes to be built. This reflects that the lots have all development entitlements, infrastructure improvements completed, finish grading completed, all in-tract utilities extended to the property line of each lot, street improvements completed, common area improvements/landscaping (associated with the tract) completed, resource agency permits (if necessary), and all development fees paid, exclusive of building permit fees, in accordance with the conditions of approval of the specific tract map.

EXPOSURE TIME

This is defined as the estimated length of time the property interest being appraised would have been offered on the market prior to the hypothetical consummation of a sale at market value on the effective date or date of value of the appraisal. Assuming a reasonable marketing effort and at or reasonably near market value, I have concluded that the exposure time for the subject homes, as well as the bulk of homes under construction and vacant lots would have been within 4 months for a sale to be negotiated, and with appropriate escrow time for the sales to close.

12 LOCATION MAP

13 GENERAL PROPERTY DATA

LOCATION

The developing master-planned community of River Ranch is located along River Ranch Parkway, at the northeast edge of the City of Rialto. At the northwest end of the community this location is at the end of Country Club Dr., ¼ mile northeast of Riverside Ave., and at the southeast end of the community this location is several blocks north of Highland Ave. This location is also several blocks north of the 210 Freeway, with an interchange at Riverside Ave.

GENERAL AREA DESCRIPTION

River Ranch is located at the north edge of the urban area of Rialto with a mix of nearby residential neighborhoods, with school, religious and commercial uses farther south toward the 210 Freeway, and open space and sand/gravel/industrial uses to the north as part of the expansive Lytle Creek/Cajon Wash through this area.

To the south/southwest of River Ranch and extending to the north side of Riverside Dr. are various neighborhoods of single-family homes built from the 1950’s through the mid 1980’s, with a few newer custom or rebuilt homes. The homes generally range in size from 1,500 s.f. to approximately 3,000 s.f., with a few larger estate homes ranging up to 6,500 s.f. Recent home sales in this area indicate sale prices from $615,000 to $705,000.

Across Riverside Dr. and extending south to the north side of the 210 Freeway are large areas of single-family neighborhoods, as well as two elementary school campuses and one middle school campus in the Rialto Unified School District, and a large church property. The nearest shops and retail for River Ranch are located in commercial centers on both sides of Riverside Dr. at the 210 Freeway and include a market, quick serve and fast food restaurants, service commercial and office.

To the northwest of the northerly part of River Ranch is much open space and vacant land including a water storage facility for West San Bernardino County Water District. This area, comprising 571 acres, was annexed into the City of Rialto in July 2016 and is part of the Lytle Creek Ranch Specific Plan which also includes the subject property. Future development will likely include some kind of residential development at varying densities similar to the subject community.

Lytle Creek and Cajon Wash extend along the north and east sides of River Ranch, with more than 1,200 acres of this area preserved in perpetuity as part of the Cajon Creek Conservation Bank established by Vulcan Materials Company. The area is managed as wildlife habitat and provides protected habitat for many plant, bird and mammal species. Vulcan Materials Company operates various mining and quarry sites along the Cajon Wash, including the ±100-acre site adjacent to the southeast of the southerly part of River Ranch.

The first builder sales of completed homes closed in November 2022 in the Blueridge, Ridgewater and Summerbrooke product types, with first closings in the other product types following thereafter. As of April 4, 2025 there were a total of 661 closed builder sales, and as of late March 2025 there were 32 pending builder sales that were scheduled to close from April through July 2025.

At build-out, the monthly HOA assessment is to be $280 for five of the product types and $365 for The Cove. This is to cover maintenance of all amenities for the overall community, and for The Cove the additional amount is for maintenance of the private streets and shared driveways.

STREETS AND ACCESS

Primary access to the River Ranch community is by River Ranch Pkwy. which extends northerly from Highland Ave. to the main monumented entrance to the community. Highland Ave. extends for many miles to the east, and also connects to Riverside Ave. nearby to the southwest. Riverside Ave. has an interchange at the

17 STREETS AND ACCESS, Continuing

210 Freeway, extends south from the freeway for a number of miles, and to the north of the freeway it curves to the northwest and extends to the 15 Freeway. River Ranch Pkwy. extends northwesterly through the community and then turns southwesterly to connect with Country Club Dr. at the northwest end of the community. Country Club Dr. extends southwest and connects with Riverside Ave.

All six of the product types of homes in River Ranch have access off of River Ranch Pkwy. at various roundabouts. In addition, most of the community amenities and much greenbelt area are along River Ranch Pkwy.

UTILITIES

The utilities have been constructed within the community and the individual neighborhoods, and are provided as follows:

 Water West Valley Water District
 Sewer: City of Rialto
 Electric: Southern California Edison
 Natural Gas: Southern California Gas Company

ZONING/GENERAL PLAN/APPROVALS

The subject community is located within the Lytle Creek Ranch Specific Plan, within an approximate 188-acre portion of Neighborhood 2. The subject taxable properties are located within Planning Area Nos. 97 to 102 and comprise Land Use Designations of SFR-1 – Single-Family Residential 1 (2-5 du/ac); SFR-2 – Single- Family Residential 2 (5-8 du/ac); SFR-3 – Single-Family Residential 3 (8-14 du/ac).

Tentative Tract Map No. 20092 was approved by the City Council on September 10, 2019 to create six developable lots to facilitate a 776-lot residential subdivision. The more specific approvals for the residential development are by the final maps for Tract Nos. 20204, 20205, 20206, 20207, 20208 and 20209 which were recorded from March 31, 2022 through May 3, 2023. In addition, the Condominium Plans for The Cove product type were recorded from September 29, 2022 through March 24, 2023.

SCHOOL DISTRICT/SCHOOLS

The River Ranch community is located within the boundaries of the Rialto Unified School District. The neighborhood is served by Hughbanks Elementary School (.5 mile to the southwest), Kolb Middle School (.75 mile southwesterly), and Carter High School (1.5 miles westerly).

18 TOPOGRAPHY/VIEWS

The River Ranch community is below grade of the existing neighborhood of homes to the southwest, and the community generally has a gradual slope/terracing down to the northeast to River Ranch Pkwy. There is also a gradual slope down to the southeast. However, there are no significant or atypical views to any of the lots.

DRAINAGE/FLOOD HAZARD

Drainage is generally to the streets and in curbs and other facilities that have been constructed within the community with drainage flows ultimately to the northeast and southeast. Per FEMA Flood Zone Panel Nos. 06071C7920H dated August 28, 2008 and 06071C7940J dated September 2, 2016, as well as Letter of Map Revision 20-09-1006P effective December 12, 2022, all of River Ranch is located in Zone X which indicates minimal flood hazard and out of the Special Flood Hazard Area.

FIRE HAZARD

Per the CalFire Fire Hazard Severity Zone map, the portions of River Ranch lying northerly/northeasterly of River Ranch Parkway are designated as moderate and high Fire Hazard Severity Zones. Per information provided by the builder:

All mitigation has been completed where homeowner complied*, and all continuing construction as of September 2023 was WUI/Chapter 7 compliant.

*Some of the homes were constructed without meeting the required guidelines for property located in high fire zones. Where the homeowners permitted retrofitting, the Developer has retrofitted all of the previously-built homes to satisfy the California Residential Code Section R337 (Materials and Construction Methods for Exterior Wildfire Exposure). All new home construction follows these guidelines. In addition, all landscaping material and spacing also meets these guidelines, and all permanent power lines are underground. Although identified in high fire areas, homeowners have not had any problems in obtaining fire insurance to date.

SOIL/GEOLOGIC/SEISMIC CONDITIONS

The River Ranch community as well as a portion of the existing neighborhood of homes to the southwest are located in an Alquist-Priolo Earthquake Fault Zone. Per the Lytle Creek Ranch Specific Plan EIR Addendum, the potential risks associated with faults, seismic ground shaking and liquefaction would be mitigated to a less- than-significant level by certain mitigation measures. These measures include items such as engineered foundation design, post-tension/structural slabs, and use of subdrains and buttress or stabilization fills in certain areas. This appraisal has assumed that all appropriate and required mitigation measures have been incorporated into the land development and home construction in the community.

19 ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS

The developer indicates that there is no outstanding environmental mitigation left to be completed. Thus, it has been assumed that there are no environmental conditions which would have a negative effect on completion of the build-out of the River Ranch community.

TITLE REPORT

Preliminary Reports by Lennar Title/Doma Title Insurance, Inc., dated from June 5 through July 11, 2023, and covering all or portions of Tract Nos. 20204 through 20209, were reviewed. Pertinent exceptions to title include the following:

 The lien of special tax for Community Facilities District 2019-1 of the Rialto Unified School District, as disclosed by the Notice of Special Tax Lien recorded October 24, 2019.  The lien of special tax for Community Facilities District No. 2020-1 (El Rancho Verde) of the City of Rialto, as disclosed by Notice of Special Tax Lien recorded October 12, 2022.  Various easements for public utilities/pipelines/incidental purposes to entities including Rialto Irrigation District; Lytle Creek Water and Improvement Company; Semi Tropic Land and Water Company; Southern Sierras Power Company; California Electric Power Company; San Bernardino County Flood Control District; City of Rialto; Southern California Edison Company; Pacific Bell Telephone Company; and Sunnova Energy Corporation.

The second noted exception is for the CFD that is the subject of this appraisal. The other exceptions are an overlapping CFD and various easements that are fairly typical of residential developments such as the subject project, and it has been assumed that these have been incorporated into the approvals for development of the River Ranch community.

RESIDENTIAL MARKET OVERVIEW

After a slow start to the year, Southern California home sales have begun to gain some traction entering the second quarter. Analysts eying 2025 have forecast slow but positive price growth in the market, supported by strong buyer demand and growing inventory levels. However, political and economic uncertainty, tied to a new administration and evolving presidential tariff policies, have increased concerns of a possible recession and put a damper on consumer confidence. The downward trend in mortgage interest rates since mid-January helped ease affordability concerns for buyers, but market volatility is a genuine concern and many market participants remain watchful.

According to data provided by Freddie Mac, the average rate on a 30-year fixed loan opened the year at 6.91% and quickly peaked two weeks later at 7.04%. It has subsequently followed a generally downward trajectory, remaining under 7% for 13 consecutive weeks and clocking in most recently at 6.83% for week ending April 17.

Though this reflects a week-over-week increase from 6.62% for week ending April 10, it is still well below the 7.1% at this time last year when purchase applications

20 RESIDENTIAL MARKET OVERVIEW, Continuing

were 13% lower. Mortgage rates are generally expected to drop in the later part of 2025, though market response to concerns surrounding inflation, employment and ongoing changes in tariff policies may contribute to rate volatility in the near term.

According to Zillow, average home sale prices across Southern California in March were up just 0.38% from February, at an average of $875,908 for the six-county region. That represents a year-over-year increase of 1.9% from March 2024. Orphe Divounguy, a senior economist with Zillow, notes that it is no longer a seller’s market as inventory continues to grow providing more options to prospective buyers who continue to grapple with interest rates and affordability. Data provider Redfin reports that in February across California there were 88,915 homes for sale, up

24.1% year over year and including 29,191 newly listed homes. The median sale price of $832,500 was up 6.0% year over year with the number of homes sold up

0.4% at 18,660.

In San Bernardino County, Redfin reports 1,185 homes sold in February 2025, down

8.7% from February 2024. Listings were on market for a median of 55 days, up nine days year over year and the median price of $540,000 reflected a 6.9% annual increase.

In the City of Rialto, Redfin reports a median sale price of $580,000 in February 2025, representing a 4.1% decrease in median sale price year over year. A total of 47 homes were sold, up 20.5% from February 2024 and the median days on market was 40, unchanged year over year. On average, homes sold at 100.4% of list price with 44.7% of homes selling above list price and 35.4% of homes showing price drops.

More specific to the River Ranch community, there have been a total of 661 closed builder sales, with three of the six product types being sold-out. In the three currently active product types, there have been a total of 89 closed builder sales in the fourth quarter of 2024 and the first quarter of 2025, with 32 pending builder sales as of late March 2025.

Input obtained from various brokers noted a slower pace in home sales activity over the last couple of months with many describing a languid start to the traditionally busy spring home buying season. While buyers are continuing to buy and sellers are continuing to sell, activity is unhurried as all market participants keep a watchful eye on the economy, trade war and ongoing geo-political uncertainties

HIGHEST AND BEST USE

The term highest and best use is defined as the reasonably probable and legal use of vacant land or an improved property, which is physically possible, appropriately supported, financially feasible, and that results in the highest value. The four criteria

21 HIGHEST AND BEST USE, Continuing

the highest and best use must meet are legal permissibility, physical possibility, financial feasibility, and maximum productivity. Furthermore, the highest and best use of land or a site as though vacant is defined as among all reasonable, alternative uses, the use that yields the highest present land value, after payments are made for labor, capital, and coordination.

In terms of legal permissibility, the completed and ongoing residential development is permitted by the zoning and General Plan designations, as well as the recorded final Tract Maps and Condominium Plans for the various neighborhoods/product types within the overall community. In terms of physical possibility, the subject lots have been graded to fairly flat buildable pads, and with all needed infrastructure of streets and utilities completed for the home construction that has been completed and is still ongoing.

In terms of the financial feasibility, as previously discussed in the Residential Market Overview, in spite of some economic uncertainties, the current residential market conditions continue to evidence reasonably good demand for new and resale homes in the River Ranch community as well as the general subject area. This is evident by the good home sales activity that has taken place in the six subject product types of homes, reflected by the closed and pending builder home sales, by the resale activity, and by the residential land sales activity in the general area.

In terms of the maximum productivity, this is represented by the completed and ongoing residential development, with an appropriate array of home sizes, floor plans and pricing within the six different product types of homes.

In summary, the highest and best use is concluded to be as improved with the completed homes and as planned for the homes under construction and vacant lots.

VALUATION

Method of Analysis

The analysis of the completed-closed homes is of the aggregate value on a mass appraisal basis, and by means of the Sales Comparison Approach. Consideration is given to the more recently closed and current pending builder sales, resales of subject homes (if any), and also sales of other product types in River Ranch. For the completed-unclosed homes, the analysis considers a discount due to the bulk ownership by the builder with the discount reflecting holding/sales costs, minor finishing costs and profit in order to sell off the homes.

For the homes under construction, a simplified Cost Approach is used in which the value is based on an estimate of construction costs expended plus the estimated value of the vacant lot. The analysis of the vacant lots is based on the Sales Comparison Approach, considering recent sales of residential land or bulk lots in the general area.

The analysis is of the finished lot condition, and then deducting the estimated remaining costs and fees to get to this condition, resulting in a value for the as is partially finished condition.

Analysis of Completed-Closed Homes

Builder Sales of Subject Homes: The builder sales of the 148 completed homes (excluding the 3 models) closed from May 23, 2023 through March 18, 2025 at net sale prices ranging from $413,532 to $560,585, or an average of $492,632 for the average home size of 1,705 s.f., or $288.93 per s.f. It is noted that the net sale price includes lot premiums and options, but deducts or is net of incentives. The option revenue averaged $11,288 and the incentives averaged $49,166.

The sale dates, or when the sales were negotiated (not the closing dates), ranged from November 20, 2022 through February 16, 2025, with the closing dates previously noted being from May 2023 through March 2025. Based on the contract dates, the changes in average net pricing, option revenue and incentives over various periods of time are shown in the following table:

148

It is noted that, when considering the differentials in the average home size, the net pricing increased in the first half of 2024, decreased in the second half of 2024, and increased slightly in the first part of 2025. It is also noted that the average option revenue increased slightly during this period of time, and the average incentives increased significantly in the second half of 2024 and into the first part of 2025.

Considering the 67 completed-closed homes being appraised with the average size of 1,699 s.f., the indication at $508,278 supports a close indication of average value due to the larger average home size of 1,722 s.f. being offset by the contract dates, and the indication at $487,415 supports a firm lower limit due to the smaller average home size of 1,612 s.f. Conversely, the indication at $295.17 per s.f. supports a firm lower limit due to the larger size and sale dates, and the indication at $302.37 per s.f. supports a firm upper limit due to the smaller size, as follows:

1,699 s.f. @ $295.17/s.f. = $501,494 (firm lower limit)

1,699 s.f. @ $302.37/s.f. = $513,727 (firm upper limit)

As of March 28, 2025 there were 7 pending builder sales that were scheduled to close from April 10 through July 2, 2025. The pertinent pricing information is shown as follows:

Considering the larger average home size than 1,699 s.f. for the 67 completed-closed homes, the indication at $524,206 supports a firm upper limit as an average value for the 67 homes. Conversely, due to the larger size, the indication at $289.78 per s.f. supports a firm lower limit as follows:

1,699 s.f. @ $289.78/s.f. = $492,336

27 VALUATION, Continuing

Builder Sales of Blueridge Homes: As discussed next in this report for the Blueridge product type, the 18 most-recently negotiated closed builder sales excluding the models support a far upper limit of average value for the subject The Cove homes at $563,733 due to the larger average home size of 1,883 s.f., as well as the larger lot sizes at 3,760 s.f. minimum. Conversely, due to the larger home size but partially offset by the larger lots, the indication at $299.38 per s.f. supports a close lower limit indication as follows:

1,699 s.f. @ $299.38/s.f. = $508,647

Resales in River Ranch: The only pertinent resale in River Ranch is the 1,547 s.f. (Plan 1) Blueridge home (discussed next for the Blueridge product type) that closed in December 2024 at the net price of $571,500. The smaller home size is far more than offset by the superior product type and larger lots of the Blueridge product type, resulting in a far upper limit indication of average value for the subject The Cove homes. However, it is noted that all of the resales indicate significant price increases over the original and earlier builder net pricing.

Conclusion: In summary, the indications of average value from the builder sales of the subject homes are firm lower limits from $487,415 to $501,494, a close indication at $508,278, and firm upper limits at $513,727 to $524,206; from recent builder sales of the Blueridge product type homes are a close upper limit indication at $508,647 and a far upper limit indication at $563,733; and from the resale of a Blueridge home is a far upper limit at $571,500 but also support for an increase over the builder net pricing.

The conclusion is an average value of $510,000 for the 67 completed-closed homes.

Analysis of Completed-Unclosed Homes

These 9 homes have an average size of 1,732 s.f., which is slightly larger than the average of 1,699 s.f. for the completed-closed homes. It is noted that there are pending builder sales on 6 of these homes that were scheduled to close from April 10 through May 16, 2025.

Considering the slightly larger average size, the initial conclusion is slightly higher than for the completed-closed homes, or an average of $520,000. Then, a discount of 20% is made due to being part of the bulk ownership by the builder, and reflecting sell-off time, holding/sales costs, minor finishing costs and profit. This results in a discounted amount rounded to $420,000 for the 9 completed-unclosed homes.

Analysis of Homes Under Construction

For the 8 homes estimated at ±50% completion, I have considered a cost amount of 50% of direct construction costs indicated to be $87.62 per s.f. for these homes, or

28 VALUATION, Continuing

$43.81 per s.f. This is applied to the average home size of 1,706 s.f. for these 8 homes, or an amount of $74,740. This is added to the estimated value of $116,353 for the vacant lot (as discussed in the following Analysis of Vacant Lots, $210,000 per finished lot less the $93,647 per lot allocation of remaining land development costs and development impact fees to get to finished lot condition), resulting in a total of $191,093, rounded to $190,000 as an average for these 8 homes.

For the 8 homes estimated at ±25% completion, a cost amount of 25% of $87.62 per s.f. or $21.91 per s.f. is applied to the average home size of 1,706 s.f. for these 8 homes, or an amount of $37,378. This is added to the estimated value of $116,353 for the vacant lot resulting in a total of $153,731, rounded to $155,000 as an average for these 8 homes.

For the 8 homes that were in the early stage of construction, these are allocated as land value only as discussed above, rounded up to $120,000 as an average for these 8 homes.

Analysis of Vacant Lots

This analysis is pertinent to the vacant lots, as well as to the lot value allocated to the homes under construction. The pertinent land sales data is shown in the following table, with discussion and analysis of the data thereafter.

for 429 residential lots in four product types of cluster/small-lot configurations. This project will be gated and include common area recreation amenities and open space, and will have a CFD. The sale to Lennar Homes was negotiated in June 2022 and closed in December 2023 at the price of $44,539,000 or $103,821 per lot, with finished lots for each product type ranging from $214,000 to $229,000. The homes range in size from 1,478 s.f. to 2,388 s.f. with the original projected average pricing ranging from $556,000 to $615,000 for the various product types, indicating finished lot ratios from 37-38%.

In comparison to the subject, the date of sale/market conditions is inferior; the location is considered to be slightly superior; the lots are fairly similar in size/product type; the unimproved condition of the land was inferior due to the time and risk factors to get to finished lot condition; and the CFD is similar. Overall, a downward adjustment for the superior location is mostly offset by upward adjustments for date of sale/market conditions and unimproved condition, resulting in a close indication of value for the subject lots at the lower part of the range or $214,000 to $220,000 per finished lot.

Data No. 2 is located at the southeast corner of Duncan Canyon Rd. and Cypress Ave., toward the north end of Fontana, and comprising Planning Areas Gardens 1 and 2 of the Arboretum Specific Plan. This was the sale of vacant land in mass graded condition with entitlements for 214 residential lots in two product types of cluster/small-lot configurations. This project is within the larger gated community that includes common area recreation amenities and open space, and has a CFD. The sale to New Home Company closed in October 2024 at the price of $35,814,500 or $167,357 per lot, with finished lots at a blended amount of $265,000. The homes will range in size from 1,582 s.f. to 1,963 s.f. with anticipated pricing from the low- $500,000’s and low-$600,000’s.

In comparison to the subject, the date of sale/market conditions is similar; the location is far superior; the lots are fairly similar in size/product type; the semi- improved condition of the land was inferior; and the CFD is similar. Overall, a significant downward adjustment for the superior location is minimally offset by an upward adjustment for the inferior physical condition, resulting in a far upper limit indication of value for the subject lots at $265,000 per finished lot.

Data No. 3 is located at the southeast corner of Live Oak Ave. and Village Dr., in the southwest part of Fontana, and in the Southridge area.

Data No. 4 is located along the northerly side of Sequanota Dr., from Pacific Ave. northwest to Opal St., in the easterly part of Jurupa Valley and just to the north of the 60 Freeway. This was the sale of vacant land in rough graded condition with entitlements for 48 residential lots, 6,000 s.f. minimum, with two CFD’s. There will also be two small tot lots within the project. The sale to Richmond American Homes closed in April 2024 at the price of $9,351,000 or $194,813 per lot, with finished lots at $307,000. The homes range in size from 2,020 s.f. to 3,040 s.f., with pricing from the mid-$700,000’s to low $800,000’s.

In comparison to the subject, the date of sale/market conditions is similar; the location is superior; the significantly larger lots are far superior and result in the potential for the much larger and higher-priced homes; the semi-improved condition of the land was inferior; and the CFD’s are similar. Overall, downward adjustments for the superior location and lot size are minimally offset by an upward adjustment for the inferior physical condition, resulting in a far upper limit indication of value for the subject lots at $307,000 per finished lot.

Data No. 5 is located to the southwest of 28th St. and Canal St. in the easterly part of Jurupa Valley, and extending well to the south/southwest toward the 60 Freeway.

This site was referred to as Emerald Ridge North, and consisted of vacant and undulating land in unimproved condition, extending west into the adjacent hills.

There were entitlements for a total of 204 lots, 184 lots at 3,600 s.f. minimum and 20 lots at 6,500 s.f. minimum, and with a CFD. The sale in two separate deeds to Lennar Homes closed concurrently in March 2024 at the price of $19,000,000 or $93,137 per lot for the unimproved condition, with finished lots estimated at a blended amount of $260,000 per lot.

In comparison to the subject, the date of sale/market conditions is similar; the location is superior; the larger to much larger minimum lot sizes are far superior; the unimproved physical condition at time of sale was inferior; and the CFD is similar.

Overall, downward adjustments for the superior location and lot size are minimally offset by an upward adjustment for the inferior physical condition, resulting in a far upper limit indication of value for the subject lots at $260,000 per finished lot.

31 VALUATION, Continuing

In summary, on a finished lot basis the analysis of the data supports a close indication of value at $214,000 to $220,000, and far upper limit indications from $252,000 to $307,000.

An alternative analysis is by the finished lot ratio, which is calculated by the finished lot price divided by the projected or proforma average home price. A typical finished lot ratio is in the range of 35-40%, as supported by Data No. 1 and generally by the other data as well. However, this range does not effectively reflect net builder pricing when considering incentives. Considering the relatively lower-priced homes being built on the subject lots, and the use of the net pricing, the high end of the range and slightly above is concluded to be supportable. Thus, a ratio of 40-42% has been used and is applied to the average home price of $510,000 (average value previously concluded for the completed-closed homes), with the resulting indication as follows:

$510,000 x .40 to .42 = $204,000 to $214,200/finished lot

The conclusion for the subject lots is $210,000 per lot if in finished condition.

Deduction of Costs to Complete

Then, a deduction is made for the remaining land development costs and development impact fees to get all lots to a fully finished condition. Per builder information, the remaining total costs and fees for the overall community are $7,960,000, none of which is to be funded by the CFD bond proceeds. This total amount includes categories of Consultants (soft costs), Fees, Grading, Sewer-Water- Storm Drain, Street Improvements, Landscaping-walls-parks-amenities, and Dry Utilities. Allocating the $7,960,000 amount over the combined 85 lots that are either vacant or with homes under construction in The Cove, Ridgewater, Summerbrooke and Edgestone product types, the indication is $93,647 per lot.

Thus, relative to the 21 vacant lots, the following indication results:

21 vacant lots, if in finished condition @ $210,000/lot = $4,410,000 Less remaining costs/fees: 21 lots @ $93,647/lot = - 1,966,587 Value, As Is Condition: $2,443,413

Rd. $2,440,000

Conclusion of Value

Based on the foregoing, the total value indication for the 121 lots being appraised in The Cove product type is calculated as follows:

32 VALUATION, Continuing

67 completed-closed homes @ $510,000 = $34,170,000
9 completed-unclosed homes @ $420,000 = $ 3,780,000
8 homes, ±50% completed @ $190,000 = $ 1,520,000
8 homes, ±25% completed @ $155,000 = $ 1,240,000
8 homes, early stage of const. @ $120,000 = $ 960,000 21 vacant lots = $ 2,440,000

Value Indication, As-Is Condition: $44,110,000

Thus, as the result of this analysis, I have arrived at the following overall conclusion of market value for the as is condition of the 121 lots within The Cove product type, subject to the Assumptions and Limiting Conditions, and as of April 4, 2025:

$44,110,000

It is noted that, when considering the differentials in the average home size, the net pricing increased in the first half of 2024 and then decreased slightly in the second half of 2024. It is also noted that the average option revenue reflected minor changes during this period of time, and the average incentives increased significantly in the second half of 2024, which corresponded with the decrease in the net pricing.

Considering the 44 completed-closed homes being appraised with the average size of 1,810 s.f., the indication at $563,733 from the most recently negotiated sales would support a firm upper limit indication of average value due to the larger average home size of 1,883 s.f. Conversely, due to the larger average size, the indication at $299.38 per s.f. would support a firm lower limit, as follows:

1,810 s.f. @ $299.38/s.f. = $541,878

Sales of The Cove Homes: As previously discussed for The Cove product type, the more-recently negotiated closed builder sales support a far lower limit for the subject

37 VALUATION, Continuing

Blueridge homes at $487,415 due to the smaller average home size of 1,612 s.f., as well as the less desirable product type of smaller lots and alley/driveway frontage and access. Conversely, due to the smaller size but more than offset by the inferior product type/lot size, the indication at $302.37 per s.f. supports a close lower limit indication as follows:

1,810 s.f. @ $302.37/s.f. = $547,290

Considering the pending builder sales, the average net price of $524,206 for an average home size of 1,809 s.f. supports a closer but firm lower limit due to the nearly similar average home size but the less desirable product type on smaller lots.

Sales of Ridgewater Homes: As discussed next in this report for the Ridgewater product type, the most recently negotiated closed builder sales indicate an average net price of $618,085 for an average home size of 2,313 s.f., or $267.22 per s.f. In addition, the pending builder sales indicate an average net price of $627,188 for an average home size of 2,384 s.f., or $263.08 per s.f. Due to the much larger average home sizes, as well as the larger minimum lot sizes of 5,000 s.f., the indications at $618,085 and $627,188 support far upper limits for the subject Blueridge homes, and conversely the indications at $267.22 and $263.08 per s.f. support far lower limits as follows:

1,810 s.f. @ $267.22 to $263.08/s.f. = $483,668 to $476,175

38 VALUATION, Continuing

builder sale was negotiated in July 2023 and closed in October 2023 at the net price of $538,620, thus the resale indicates a 6% increase reflecting date of original sale and possible seller improvements. In addition, the indication at $571,500 would tend to support a firm lower limit as an average for the 44 completed-closed homes due to the much smaller size though partially offset by the one-story plan.

Considering all 5 resales, the average net price of $664,680 supports a far upper limit as an average value for the subject homes due to the much larger average home size of 1,992 s.f., all of the sales being the more desirable one-story floor plan, the much larger lot sizes, and one of the sales being a former model home. In addition, the indication at $333.67 per s.f. supports a closer but still firm upper limit due to the larger size but offset by the other superior factors, as follows:

1,810 s.f. @ $333.67/s.f. = $603,943

Conclusion of Value

In summary, the indications of average value from the builder sales of the subject homes are a firm lower limit at $541,878 and a firm upper limit at $563,733; from builder sales of other product types are far lower limits from $476,175 to $487,415, a firm lower limit at $524,206, a close lower limit at $547,290, and far upper limits at $618,085 and $627,188; and from resales are a firm lower limit at $571,500, a firm upper limit at $603,943, and a far upper limit at $664,680.

Greatest weight is given to the builder sales of the subject homes, with secondary support from the other data. While the resale of the subject Blueridge home is of interest and could support a much higher price than the builder pricing, limited weight is given to it as only one sale.

The conclusion is an average value of $550,000 for the 44 completed-closed homes, which results in the following:

44 completed-closed homes @ $550,000 = $24,200,000

Thus, as the result of this analysis, I have arrived at the following conclusion of market value for the 44 completed-closed homes in the subject Blueridge product type, subject to the Assumptions and Limiting Conditions, and as of April 4, 2025:

$24,200,000

(TWENTY-FOUR MILLION TWO HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS)

As shown in the tables for Blueridge in the Addenda section at the end of this report, the assessed values for the 90 lots, all of which comprise completed-closed homes, are a total amount of $49,315,000.

VALUATION

Method of Analysis

This is similar to previous analyses.

Analysis of Completed-Closed Homes

Builder Sales of Subject Homes: The builder sales of the 132 completed homes closed from November 15, 2022 through March 28, 2025 at net sale prices ranging from $445,681 to $694,200, or an average of $592,334 for the average home size of 2,292 s.f., or $258.44 per s.f. It is noted that the net sale price includes lot premiums and options, but deducts or is net of incentives. The option revenue averaged $8,513 and the incentives averaged $54,389.

The sale dates, or when the sales were negotiated (not the closing dates), ranged from July 30, 2022 through February 23, 2025, with the closing dates previously noted being from November 2022 through March 2025. Based on the contract dates, the changes in average net pricing, option revenue and incentives over various periods of time are shown in the following table:

24 Jul-Nov’24 $615,668 2,319 $265.49 $15,603 ($69,495)

8 Dec’24-Feb’25 $618,085 2,313 $267.22 $9,868 ($69,178) 132

It is noted that, when considering the differentials in the average home size, the net pricing increased in the first half of 2024 and has been fairly stable since that time.

It is also noted that the average option revenue is relatively minor and with some fluctuation, and the average incentives increased significantly in the second half of 2024 and into the first part of 2025.

Considering the 59 completed-closed homes being appraised with the average size of 2,330 s.f., the indications at $615,668 and $618,085 would support fairly close indications of average value due to the fairly similar average home sizes.

As of March 28, 2025 there were 7 pending builder sales that were scheduled to close from April 22 through June 25, 2025. The pertinent pricing information is shown as follows:

No. of Time Frame Avg. Avg Home Avg. Avg.

7 12/22/24 – 2/28/25 $627,188 2,384 $263.08 $9,611 ($66,698)

Considering the larger average home size than 2,330 s.f. for the 59 completed-closed homes, the indication at $627,188 supports a firm upper limit as an average value for the 59 homes. Conversely, due to the larger size, the indication at $263.08 per s.f. supports a firm lower limit as follows:

2,330 s.f. @ $263.08/s.f. = $612,976

Sales of Blueridge Homes: As previously discussed for the Blueridge product type, the 18 most-recently negotiated closed builder sales excluding the models support a far lower limit of average value for the subject Ridgewater homes at $563,733 due to the much smaller average home size of 1,883 s.f., as well as the smaller lot sizes at 3,760 s.f. minimum. Conversely, due to the smaller home size but partially offset by the smaller Blueridge lots, the indication at $299.38 per s.f. supports a firm upper limit indication as follows:

2,330 s.f. @ $299.38/s.f. = $697,555

Builder Sales of Edgestone Homes: As discussed later in this report for the Edgestone product type, the most recently negotiated closed builder sales indicate an average net price of $599,447 for an average home size of 2,540 s.f., or $236.00 per s.f. In addition, the pending builder sales indicate an average net price of $616,780 for an average home size of 2,484 s.f., or $248.30 per s.f. Due to the larger average home sizes but offset by the much smaller minimum lot size of 3,760 s.f., the indications at $599,447 and $616,780 support fairly close indications of average value for the subject Ridgewater homes, but far lower limit indications at $236.00 and $248.30 per s.f. as follows:

2,330 s.f. @ $236.00 to $248.30/s.f. = $549,880 to $578,539

Data Nos. 2, 5 & 6 are resales of subject Ridgewater homes, and indicate an average net price of $711,667 for an average home size of 2,461 s.f., or $289.18 per s.f. Due to the larger size than the average of 2,330 s.f. for the 59 completed-closed homes, the indication at $711,667 supports a firm upper limit as an average value, and the indication at $289.18 per s.f. supports a firm lower limit, as follows:

2,330 s.f. @ $289.18/s.f. = $673,789

Considering all 6 resales, while the average home size is similar, the average net price of $714,333 supports a firm upper limit as an average value for the subject

47 VALUATION, Continuing

homes due to the greater percentage of one-story floor plans, the larger lot sizes on average, and inclusion of a former model home.

Conclusion: In summary, the indications of average value from the builder sales of the subject homes are a firm lower limit at $612,976, close indications at $615,668 and $618,085, and a firm upper limit at $627,188; from builder sales of other product types are far lower limits from $549,880 to $578,539, close indications at $599,447 and $616,780, and a firm upper limit at $697,555; and from resales are a firm lower limit at $673,789 and firm upper limits at $711,667 and $714,333.

Greatest weight is given to the builder sales of the subject homes, with secondary support from the other data. While the resales are of interest and support much higher prices than the builder pricing, limited weight is given due to the limited number of pertinent sales.

The conclusion is an average value of $620,000 for the 59 completed-closed homes.

Analysis of Completed-Unclosed Homes

These 9 homes have an average size of 2,301 s.f., which is fairly similar to the average of 2,330 s.f. for the completed-closed homes. It is noted that there are pending builder sales on 6 of these homes that were scheduled to close from April 22 through April 30, 2025.

Considering the similar average size, the initial conclusion is similar to the completed-closed homes, or an average of $620,000. Then, a discount of 20% is made due to being part of the bulk ownership by the builder, and reflecting sell-off time, holding/sales costs, minor finishing costs and profit. This results in a discounted amount rounded to $500,000 for the 9 completed-unclosed homes.

Analysis of Homes Under Construction

For the 9 homes estimated at ±50% completion, I have considered a cost amount of 50% of direct construction costs indicated to be $74.84 per s.f. for these homes, or $37.42 per s.f. This is applied to the average home size of 2,301 s.f. for these 9 homes, or an amount of $86,103. This is added to the estimated value of $151,353 for the vacant lot (as discussed in the following Analysis of Vacant Lot Value) resulting in a total of $237,456, rounded to $240,000 as an average for these 9 homes.

Analysis of Vacant Lot Value

This is similar to the previous discussion for The Cove product type, except that these Ridgewater lots are much larger at 5,000 s.f. minimum, and being developed

48 VALUATION, Continuing

with larger and higher-priced homes. Thus, on a finished lot basis, the land sales data would support a firm lower limit at $229,000 per finished lot, closer indications from $252,000 to $260,000 per finished lot, and a far upper limit at $307,000 per finished lot.

As an alternative analysis, considering a slightly lower finished lot ratio of 38-40% due to the higher-priced homes, and the average home price of $620,000 (average value previously concluded for completed-closed homes), the following indication results:

$620,000 x .38-.40 = $235,600 to $248,000/finished lot

The conclusion for the subject lots is $245,000 per lot if in finished condition. Then, as previously discussed for The Cove product type, deducting the allocation of the remaining costs/fees of $93,647 per lot results in an as is value indication of $151,353 per lot.

Conclusion of Value

Based on the foregoing, the total value indication for the subject Ridgewater product type in its as-is condition, is calculated as follows:

59 completed-closed homes @ $620,000 = $36,580,000
9 completed-unclosed homes @ $500,000 = $ 4,500,000
9 homes under construction @ $240,000 = $ 2,160,000

Value Indication, As-Is Condition: $43,240,000

Thus, as the result of this analysis, I have arrived at the following overall conclusion of market value for the as is condition of the 77 lots within the subject Ridgewater product type, subject to the Assumptions and Limiting Conditions, and as of July 15, 2023:

$43,240,000

No. of Lots/Lot Sizes

This product type comprises a total of 75 lots, with a typical minimum lot size of 50’ wide by 100’ deep; per Assessor data, the lot sizes range from 5,000 s.f. to 11,036 s.f., or an average of 5,749 s.f.

Description of Homes/Status of Construction

These lots have been developed by Lennar Homes with a product type of detached homes called Summerbrooke. As of the April 4, 2025 date of value, there were 72 completed-closed homes (closed builder sales) and 3 vacant lots in near-finished condition. Regarding the 3 vacant lots, Lennar Homes is waiting for an Army Corps of Engineers permit to relocate dry utilities for Southern California Edison, and it is anticipated that the permit will be received within the next year or by April 2026.

The 4 lots being appraised include 1 completed-closed home (Lot 28 of Tract No. 20205) and the 3 vacant lots (Lots 52 to 54 of Tract No. 20205).

The 71 lots with assessed values comprise completed-closed homes (Lots 17 to 27, 29 to 51, 55 to 63 & 121 to 146 of Tract No. 20205 and Lots 76 & 77 of Tract No. 20206.)

Method of Analysis

This is similar to previous analyses.

Analysis of Completed-Closed Home

Builder Sales of Subject Homes: The most recent builder sales of the 1,950 s.f. (Plan 1) homes had contract dates from August 2023 through January 2024, with closings from November 2023 through May 2024, and an average net price of $548,267. Due to the older contract dates, this average would support a firm lower limit indication of current value.

Sales of Blueridge Homes: As previously discussed for the Blueridge product type, the 18 most-recently negotiated closed builder sales excluding the models support a firm lower limit indication of average value for the subject Summerbrooke home at $563,733, due to the smaller average home size of 1,883 s.f., as well as the smaller lot sizes at 3,760 s.f. minimum. Conversely, due to the smaller home size but partially offset by the smaller lots, the indication at $299.38 per s.f. supports a close upper limit indication as follows:

1,950 s.f. @ $299.38/s.f. = $583,791

Builder Sales of Ridgewater Homes: Considering only the builder sales of the smallest floor plan at 2,064 s.f., the 7 most recently negotiated closed sales since July 2024 plus the 2 pending sales indicate an average net price of $596,662 or $289.08 per s.f. Due to the larger size, the indication at $596,662 supports a firm upper limit for the subject Summerbrooke home, and the indication at $289.08 per s.f. supports a firm lower limit as follows:

1,950 s.f. @ $289.08/s.f. = $563,706

Resales of River Ranch Homes: As previously indicated, there have been 4 closed and 1 pending resales of the subject Summerbrooke homes. These sales include 3 of the 2,091 s.f. (Plan 2) homes and 2 of the 2,238 s.f. (Plan 3) homes. In the analysis of the Blueridge product type, the table of 5 resales in River Ranch included the 3 sales of the 2,091 s.f. homes that indicate an average net price of $678,300 or $324.39 per s.f. The indication at $678,300 supports a far upper limit for the subject Summerbrooke 1,950 s.f. home due to the larger size as well as one of the sales being a former model home.

Conclusion: In summary, the indication of value from the builder sales of the subject homes is a firm lower limit at $548,267; from builder sales of other product types are firm lower limits at $563,706 and $563,733, a close upper limit at $583,791, and a

53 VALUATION, Continuing

firm upper limit at $596,662; and from resales of larger Summerbrooke homes is a far upper limit at $678,300.

The conclusion is a value of $580,000 for the 1 completed-closed home.

Analysis of Vacant Lots

This is generally similar to the previous analysis for the Ridgewater product type, as these subject Summerbrooke lots are similar in size. However, the Summerbrooke product type is smaller and lower-priced than Ridgewater, the size of 3 lots has less desirability, and these lots will not be buildable for about a year while awaiting the permit from the Army Corps of Engineers.

Thus, the initial conclusion for the 3 subject lots is a discounted amount of $200,000 per finished lot, less the cost allocation of $93,647 per lot, or a residual amount of $106,353 per lot, rounded to $110,000 per lot, for the as is condition.

Conclusion of Value

Based on the foregoing, the total value indication for the subject Summerbrooke product type in its as-is condition, is calculated as follows:

1 completed-closed home @ $580,000 = $580,000
3 vacant lots @ $110,000 = $330,000

Value Indication, As-Is Condition: $910,000

Thus, as the result of this analysis, I have arrived at the following overall conclusion of market value for the as is condition of the 4 lots within the subject Summerbrooke product type, subject to the Assumptions and Limiting Conditions, and as of April 4, 2025:

$910,000

(NINE HUNDRED TEN THOUSAND DOLLARS)

No. of Lots/Lot Sizes

This product type comprises a total of 136 lots, with a typical minimum size of 3,760 s.f. or 47’ wide by 80’ deep; per Assessor data, the lot sizes range from 3,759 s.f. to 10,767 s.f., or an average of 4,644 s.f.

Description of Homes/Status of Construction

These lots are being developed by Lennar Homes with a product type of detached homes called Edgestone. As of the April 4, 2025 date of value, there were 98 completed-closed homes (closed builder sales); 10 completed-unclosed homes (including the 2 models); 16 homes under construction of which 8 were estimated to be ±50% completed and 8 were estimated to be 25% completed; and 12 vacant lots in near-finished condition.

The 105 lots being appraised include 69 completed-closed homes (Lots 24 to 27, 37, 54 to 81 & 89 to 124 of Tract No. 20204); 8 completed-unclosed homes (Lots 28 to 31 & 82 to 85 of Tract No. 20204); the 8 homes under construction at 50% completion (Lots 32 to 36 & 86 to 88 of Tract No. 20204); the 8 homes under construction at 25% completion (Lots 38 & 47 to 53 of Tract No. 20204); and the 12 vacant lots (Lots 39 to 46 of Tract No. 20204 and Lots 70 to 72 & 75 of Tract No. 20206).

The 31 lots with assessed values comprise 29 completed-closed homes (Lots 1 to 23 & 125 to 130 of Tract No. 20204), and 2 completed-unclosed homes which are the models (Lots 73 & 74 of Tract No. 20206).

There are three floor plans, and per marketing information are described as follows:

Plan 1: 2,253 s.f., two-story, with 4 bedrooms, 3 baths; first floor includes bedroom, bath, great room-dining room-kitchen and office; second floor includes 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, loft and laundry; plus 2-bay garage and covered front porch.

Method of Analysis

This is similar to previous analyses.

Analysis of Completed-Unclosed Homes

Builder Sales of Subject Homes: The builder sales of the 98 completed homes closed from November 8, 2023 through March 14, 2025 at net sale prices ranging from $544,022 to $689,311, or an average of $605,815 for the average home size of 2,507 s.f., or $241.65 per s.f. It is noted that the net sale price includes lot premiums and options, but deducts or is net of incentives. The option revenue averaged $7,685 and the incentives averaged $52,198.

The sale dates, or when the sales were negotiated (not the closing dates), ranged from June 6, 2023 through January 26, 2025, with the closing dates previously noted being from November 2023 through March 2025. Based on the contract dates, the changes in average net pricing, option revenue and incentives over various periods of time are shown in the following table:

No. of Time Frame Avg. Avg Home Avg. Avg.

Sales (Contract Dates) Net Price Size (s.f.) Price/s.f. Opt. Rev. Incentives

98 Jun’23-Jan’25 $605,815 2,507 $241.65 $7,685 ($52,198)

16 Jun-Dec’23 $605,352 2,457 $246.38 $13,665 ($43,991)

38 Jan-Jun’24 $609,187 2,499 $243.77 $6,830 ($45,528)

29 Jul-Oct’24 $604,946 2,529 $239.20 $6,904 ($57,814)

15 Nov’24-Jan’25 $599,447 2,540 $236.00 $4,981 ($66,990) 98 58

VALUATION, Continuing

It is noted that, when considering the minor differentials in the average home size, there has been a very minimal decrease in the net pricing over these periods of time.

It is also noted that the average option revenue is relatively minor and has been fairly constant in the recent periods of time, and the average incentives increased significantly in the second half of 2024 and into the first part of 2025.

Considering the 69 completed-closed homes being appraised with the average size of 2,511 s.f., the indications at $604,946 and $599,447 would support firm lower limit indications of average value due to the slightly larger average home sizes being more than offset by the older contract dates. In addition, due to the slightly larger sizes as well as the older contract dates, the indications at $236.00 and $239.20 per s.f. would support firm lower limits as follows:
2,511 s.f. @ $236.00 to $239.20/s.f. = $592,596 to $600,631

As of March 28, 2025 there were 18 pending builder sales that were scheduled to close from April 24 through July 30, 2025. The pertinent pricing information is shown as follows:

No. of Time Frame Avg. Avg Home Avg. Avg.

Sales (Contract Dates) Net Price Size (s.f.) Price/s.f. Opt. Rev. Incentives

18 12/13/24 – 3/17/25 $616,780 2,484 $248.30 $3,364 ($51,130)

It is noted that the net pricing is slightly higher than for the most recently negotiated closed sales, and also for the slightly smaller average home size of 2,484 s.f. Thus, the indication at $616,780 tends to support a close lower limit as an average value for the 69 completed-closed homes, and the indication at $248.30 per s.f. supports a close upper limit as follows:

2,511 s.f. @ $248.30/s.f. = $623,481

Builder Sales of Blueridge Homes: Considering only the builder sales of the largest floor plan at 2,064 s.f., the 11 builder sales that closed from August through December 2024 indicate an average net price of $583,544 or $282.72 per s.f. Due to the much smaller size, the indication at $583,544 supports a far lower limit for the subject Edgestone homes, and the indication at $282.72 per s.f. supports a far upper limit as follows:

2,511 s.f. @ $282.72/s.f. = $709,910

Builder Sales of Ridgewater Homes: As previously discussed for the Ridgewater product type, the most recently negotiated closed builder sales indicate an average net price of $618,085 for an average home size of 2,313 s.f., or $267.22 per s.f. In addition, the pending builder sales indicate an average net price of $627,188 for an average home size of 2,384 s.f., or $263.08 per s.f. Due to the smaller average home

59 VALUATION, Continuing

sizes but offset by the much larger 5,000 s.f. minimum lot sizes, the indications at $618,085 and $627,188 support close indications for the subject Edgestone homes, and far upper limit indications at $263.08 and $267.22 per s.f. as follows:

2,511 s.f. @ $263.08 to $267.22/s.f. = $660,594 to $670,989

Resales of River Ranch Homes: The 6 resales previously discussed in the analysis of the Ridgewater product type indicate an average net price of $714,333 for an average home size of 2,333 s.f. This indication at $714,333 supports a firm upper limit as an average value for the subject homes due to the much larger lots, inclusion of one- story plans and inclusion of a former model home being well more than offsetting to the smaller average home size.

Conclusion: In summary, the indications of average value from the builder sales of the subject homes are firm lower limits from $592,596 to $604,946, a close lower limit at $616,780 and a close upper limit at $623,481; from builder sales of other product types are a far lower limit at $583,544, close indications at $618,085 and $627,188, and far upper limits from $660,594 to $709,910; and from resales is a firm upper limit at $714,333.

Greatest weight is given to the builder sales of the subject homes, with secondary support from the other data. While the resales are of interest and support much higher prices than the builder pricing, limited weight is given due to the limited number of pertinent sales.

The conclusion is an average value of $620,000 for the 69 completed-closed homes.

Analysis of Completed-Unclosed Homes

These 8 homes have an average size of 2,512 s.f., or very similar to the completed- closed homes. It is noted that there are pending builder sales on 7 of these homes that were scheduled to close from April 24 through May 2, 2025.

Considering the similar average size, the initial conclusion is similar to the completed-closed homes, or an average of $620,000. Then, a discount of 20% is made due to being part of the bulk ownership by the builder, and reflecting sell-off time, holding/sales costs, minor finishing costs and profit. This results in a discounted amount rounded to $500,000 for the 8 completed-unclosed homes.

Analysis of Homes Under Construction

For the 8 homes estimated at ±50% completion, I have considered a cost amount of 50% of direct construction costs indicated to be $71.06 per s.f. for these homes, or $35.53 per s.f. This is applied to the average home size of 2,494 s.f. for these 8 homes, or an amount of $88,612. This is added to the estimated value of $151,353

60 VALUATION, Continuing

for the vacant lot (as discussed in the following Analysis of Vacant Lots), resulting in a total of $239,965, rounded to $240,000 as an average for these 8 homes.

For the 8 homes estimated at ±25% completion, a cost amount of 25% of $71.06 per s.f. or $17.77 per s.f. is applied to the average home size of 2,494 s.f. for these 8 homes, or an amount of $44,318. This is added to the estimated value of $151,353 for the vacant lot resulting in a total of $195,671, rounded to $195,000 as an average for these 8 homes.

Analysis of Vacant Lots

This is similar to the previous analysis of the Ridgewater product type, with the smaller lots on average of this Edgestone product type being offset by the larger and similar-priced homes to Ridgewater. Thus, the conclusion for the subject Edgestone lots is the same at $245,000 per lot if in finished condition, less the allocation of the remaining costs/fees of $93,647 per lot, resulting in an as is value indication of $151,353 per lot. Applied to the 12 vacant lots, this results in the following:

12 vacant lots @ $151,353/lot = $1,816,236

Rd. $1,820,000

Conclusion of Value

Based on the foregoing, the total value indication for the subject Edgestone product type in its as-is condition, is calculated as follows:

69 completed-closed homes @ $620,000 = $42,780,000
8 completed-unclosed homes @ $500,000 = $ 4,000,000
8 homes, ±50% completed @ $240,000 = $ 1,920,000
8 homes, ±25% completed @ $195,000 = $ 1,560,000
12 vacant lots = $ 1,820,000

Value Indication, As-Is Condition: $52,080,000

Thus, as the result of this analysis, I have arrived at the following overall conclusion of market value for the as is condition of the 105 lots within the subject Edgestone product type, subject to the Assumptions and Limiting Conditions, and as of April 4, 2025:

$52,080,000

Analysis of Completed-Closed Homes

Builder Sales of Subject Homes: The builder sales of the 74 completed homes closed from February 6, 2023 through October 29, 2024 at net sale prices ranging from $518,641 to $922,140, or an average of $713,274 for the average home size of 3,203 s.f., or $222.69 per s.f. It is noted that the net sale price includes lot premiums and options, but deducts or is net of incentives. The option revenue averaged $12,275 and the incentives averaged $54,010.

The sale dates, or when the sales were negotiated (not the closing dates), ranged from July 10, 2022 through September 22, 2024, with the closing dates previously noted being from February 2023 through October 2024. Based on the contract dates, the changes in average net pricing, option revenue and incentives over various periods of time are shown in the following table:

No. of Time Frame Avg. Avg Home Avg. Avg.

Sales (Contract Dates) Net Price Size (s.f.) Price/s.f. Opt. Rev. Incentives

74 Jul’22-Nov’24 $713,274 3,203 $222.69 $12,275 ($54,010)

16 Jul’22-Dec’22 $667,930 3,247 $205.71 $9,147 ($72,020)

44 Jan-Dec’23 $703,736 3,098 $227.16 $10,261 ($45,772)

14 Jan-Sep’24 $795,069 3,481 $228.40 $22,181 ($59,316)
74 It is noted that, when considering the significant differentials in the average home size, the net pricing increased from 2022 to 2023, and then was fairly constant into the first half of 2024 and then decreased slightly in the second half of 2024. It is also noted that the average option revenue increased in 2024, and the average incentives increased from 2023 to 2024 but still below the figure from 2022.

Considering the 14 most recently negotiated sales that closed from February through October 2024, the average home size of 3,481 s.f. is much larger than the average of 3,228 s.f. for the 4 homes being appraised, but partially offset by the older dates of sale. Thus, the indication at $795,069 supports a close upper limit indication of average value and the indication at $228.40 per s.f. supports a firm lower limit as follows:

3,228 s.f. @ $228.40/s.f. = $737,275

Builder Sales of Ridgewater Homes: As previously discussed for the Ridgewater product type, the most recently negotiated closed builder sales indicate an average net price of $618,085 for an average home size of 2,313 s.f., or $267.22 per s.f. In addition, the pending builder sales indicate an average net price of $627,188 for an

average home size of 2,384 s.f., or $263.08 per s.f. Due to the far smaller average home sizes and smaller lot sizes at 5,000 s.f. minimum, the indications at $618,085 and $627,188 support far lower limits for the subject Stonecreek homes, and far upper limit indications at $263.08 and $267.22 per s.f. as follows:

3,228 s.f. @ $263.08 to $267.22/s.f. = $849,222 to $862,586

Builder Sales of Edgestone Homes: As previously discussed for the Edgestone product type, the most recently negotiated closed builder sales indicate an average net price of $599,447 for an average home size of 2,540 s.f., or $236.00 per s.f. In addition, the pending builder sales indicate an average net price of $616,780 for an average home size of 2,484 s.f., or $248.30 per s.f. Due to the much smaller average home sizes and the much smaller minimum lot size of 3,760 s.f., the indications at $599,447 and $616,780 support far lower limits of average value for the subject Stonecreek homes, and closer indications at $236.00 and $248.30 per s.f. as follows:

3,228 s.f. @ $236.00 to $248.30/s.f. = $761,808 to $801,512

Resales of River Ranch Homes: Pertinent resales of homes in the subject community are shown in the following table:

Data Nos. 3, 4 & 5 are resales of subject Stonecreek homes, and indicate an average net price of $870,000 for an average home size of 3,591 s.f., or $242.27 per s.f. Due to the larger size than the average of 3,228 s.f. for the 4 completed-closed homes, and that one of the sales is a former model home, the indication at $870,000 supports a far upper limit as an average value, and the indication at $242.27 per s.f. supports a close lower limit, as follows:

3,228 s.f. @ $242.27/s.f. = $782,048

67 VALUATION, Continuing

Considering all 5 resales, the average home size is slightly smaller, several of the lots are much smaller, but one of the sales is an upgraded former model home. Thus, the indication at $806,000 supports a close upper limit indication of average value for the subject homes.

Conclusion of Value

In summary, the indications of average value from the builder sales of the subject homes are a firm lower limit at $737,275 and a close upper limit at $795,069; from builder sales of other product types are far lower limits from $599,447 to $627,188, close indications at $761,808 and $801,572, and far upper limits at $849,222 and $862,586; and from resales are a close lower limit at $782,048, a close upper limit at $806,000, and a far upper limit at $870,000.

Greatest weight is given to the builder sales of the subject homes, with secondary support from the other data. The conclusion is an average value of $780,000 for the 4 completed-closed homes, which results in the following:

4 completed-closed homes @ $780,000 = $3,120,000

Thus, as the result of this analysis, I have arrived at the following conclusion of market value for the 4 completed-closed homes in the subject Stonecreek product type, subject to the Assumptions and Limiting Conditions, and as of April 4, 2025:

$3,120,000

(THREE MILLION ONE HUNDRED TWENTY THOUSAND DOLLARS)

2024/2025 ASSESSED VALUES FOR 70 LOTS

As shown in the tables for Stonecreek in the Addenda section at the end of this report, the assessed values for the 70 lots, all of which comprise completed-closed homes, are a total amount of $54,329,099.
