RESOLUTION OPPOSING THE RELINQUISHING OF THE STATE OF MICHIGAN’S AUTHORITY TO ADMINISTER THE FEDERAL WETLAND PROTECTION PROGRAM AND THE

REPEAL OF PART 303, WETLANDS PROTECTION, OF PUBLIC ACT 451 OF 1994

RESOLUTION #09-090 WHEREAS, a proposal pending in the Michigan Legislature to relinquish the State’s authority to administer the federal wetland protection program and repeal Part 303, Wetlands Protection, of Public Act 451 of 1994 will jeopardize our water resources; and WHEREAS, this proposal would reduce local and state control and oversight of one of Michigan’s most valuable resources, its wetlands; and WHEREAS, wetlands protect water quality, retain or remove nutrients and pollutants, provide vital habitat to fish, wildlife, and waterfowl; and WHEREAS, healthy wetlands decrease flooding, safeguard downstream property owners, and replenish ground water; and WHEREAS, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is experiencing considerable time delays on permit reviews, which would slow and put a burden on critical economic development in Michigan; and WHEREAS, the federal government does not have any time requirements for review and decision-making on wetland permits; and WHEREAS, most permits under State of Michigan wetland regulations are required to be issued within 90 to 120 days of application; and WHEREAS, the state program regulates 95.1% of Michigan’s wetlands along with activities not currently, nor proposed to be regulated by the federal program, such as wetland excavation, dredging, and some drainage activities; and WHEREAS, sending the wetlands program to the federal government could result in many Michigan wetlands not being regulated or protected, such as isolated wetlands not regulated by the federal program. WHEREAS, at a minimum, 930,000 acres of Michigan wetlands are “isolated” wetlands and would not be protected if Part 303 should be repealed. THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, the Ingham County Board of Commissioners opposes the relinquishing of the State’s authority to administer the federal wetland protection program and opposes the repeal or modifi-cation of Part 303, Wetlands Protection, of Public Act 451 of 1994, in Senate Bill 187 and House Bills 4153 and 4542, because these proposals would jeopardize our valuable water resources in Ingham County and the State of Michigan.

Delinquent Taxes shall be estimated based on delinquencies experienced during the past three fiscal years and on demographic and economic data relevant to the current tax year, and shall be determined based on certification from each of the taxing units. The amount of the reasonably required reserve fund shall be calculated pursuant to such analyses and certificates as the Treasurer may request. 104. Proceeds. If the Notes are issued and sold before the Treasurer has received certification from the taxing units of the amount of the Delinquent Taxes and if such certification is not reasonably anticipated to


107

occur to allow distribution of the proceeds of the Notes within 20 days after the date of issue, the proceeds of the Notes shall be deposited in the County's 2009 Delinquent Tax Project Account and thereafter used to fund the whole or a part of the County's 2009 Tax Payment Account, 2009 Note Reserve Account and/or 2009 Note Payment Account, subject to and in accordance with Article VII. If the Notes are issued and sold on or after such time, the proceeds of the Notes shall be deposited directly into the County's 2009 Tax Payment Account, 2009 Note Reserve Account and/or 2009 Note Payment Account, as provided in Article VII. 105. Treasurer's Order Authorizing Notes and Establishing Delinquent Taxes. At or prior to the time any Notes are issued pursuant to this resolution, the Treasurer, as authorized by Act 206, may issue a written order specifying the amount and character of the Delinquent Taxes, the Article or Articles under which the Notes are being issued and any other matters subject to the Treasurers control under either this resolution or Act 206.

II. FIXED MATURITY NOTES

201. Authority. At the option of the Treasurer, exercisable by written order, the Notes may be issued in accordance with this Article II. All reference to "Notes" in Article II refers only to Notes issued pursuant to Article II, unless otherwise specified. 202. Date. The Notes shall be dated as of the date of issue or as of such earlier date specified by written order of the Treasurer. 203. Maturity and Amounts. Notes issued pursuant to this Article II shall be structured in accordance with subsections (a) or (b) below as determined by the Treasurer pursuant to written order. (a) The first maturity of the Notes or of a series of the Notes shall be determined by the Treasurer pursuant to written order, but shall not be later than two years after the date of issue. Later maturities of the Notes shall be on the first anniversary of the preceding maturity or on such earlier date as the Treasurer may specify by written order. The Notes shall be structured with the number of maturities determined by the Treasurer to be necessary or appropriate, and the last maturity shall be scheduled for no later than the fourth anniversary of the date of issue. The amount of each maturity shall be set by the Treasurer when the amount of Delinquent Taxes is determined by the Treasurer or when a reliable estimate of the Delinquent Taxes is available to the Treasurer. In determining the exact amount of each maturity the Treasurer shall consider the schedule of delinquent tax collections prepared for the tax years ending December 31, 2008, and the corollary schedule setting forth the anticipated rate of collection of those Delinquent Taxes which are pledged to the repayment of the Notes. The amount of each maturity and the scheduled maturity dates of the Notes shall be established to take into account the dates on which the Treasurer reasonably anticipates the collection of such Delinquent Taxes and shall allow for no more than a 10% variance between the debt service payable on each maturity date, the Notes, and the anticipated amount of pledged monies available on such maturity date to make payment of such debt service. (b) Alternatively, the Notes or a series of the Notes may be structured with a single stated maturity falling not later than the fourth anniversary of the date of issue. Notes issued under this subsection (b) shall be subject to redemption on such terms consistent with Section 209 as shall be ordered by the Treasurer, but in no event shall such Notes be subject to redemption less frequently than annually. 204. Interest Rate and Date of Record. (a) Except as otherwise provided in this paragraph, Notes issued pursuant to subsection (a) of Section 203 shall bear interest payable semi-annually, with the first interest payment to be payable (i) on the first date, after issuance, corresponding to the day and month on which the maturity of such Notes falls, or (ii) if the Treasurer so orders, six months before such date. In the event (i) any maturity of the Notes arises either less than six months before the succeeding maturity date or less than six months after the preceding maturity date and (ii) the Treasurer so orders in writing, interest on the Notes shall be payable on such succeeding or preceding maturity date. Subject to the following sentence, Notes issued pursuant to subsection (b) of Section


108

203 shall, pursuant to written order of the Treasurer, bear interest monthly, quarterly, or semiannually, as provided by written order of the Treasurer. If Notes issued under this Article II are sold with a variable rate feature as provided in Article IV, such Notes may, pursuant to written order of the Treasurer, bear interest weekly, monthly, quarterly or on any put date, or any combination of the foregoing, as provided by written order of the Treasurer. (b) Interest shall not exceed the maximum rate permitted by law. (c) Interest shall be mailed by first class mail to the registered owner of each Note as of the applicable date of record, provided, however, that the Treasurer may agree with the Registrar (as defined below) on a different method of payment. (d) Subject to Section 403 in the case of variable rate Notes, the date of record shall be not fewer than 14 nor more than 31 days before the date of payment, as designated by the Treasurer prior to the sale of the Notes. 205. Note Form. The form of Note shall be consistent with the prescriptions of this Resolution and shall reflect all material terms of the Notes. Unless the Treasurer shall by written order specify the contrary, the Notes shall be issued in fully registered form both as to principal and interest, regrettable upon the books of a note registrar (the "Registrar") to be named by the Treasurer. If the Notes are issued in bearer form the Treasurer shall appoint a paying agent (the "Paying Agent"). (The Registrar or Paying Agent so named may be any bank or trust company or other entity, including the County, offering the necessary services pertaining to the registration and transfer of negotiable securities.) 206. Denominations and Numbers. The Notes shall be issued in one or more denomination or denominations of $1,000 each or any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess of $1,000, as determined by the Treasurer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, in the event the Notes are deposited under a book entry depository trust arrangement pursuant to Section 208, the Notes shall, if required by the depository trustee, be issued in denominations of $5,000 each or any integral multiple of $5,000. The Notes shall be numbered from one upwards, regardless of maturity, in such order as the Registrar shall determine. 207. Transfer or Exchange of Notes. (a) Notes issued in registered form shall be transferable on a note register maintained with respect to the Notes upon surrender of the transferred Note, together with an assignment executed by the registered owner or his or her duly authorized attorney-in-fact in form satisfactory to the Registrar. Upon receipt of a properly assigned Note, the Registrar shall authenticate and deliver a new Note or Notes in equal aggregate principal amount and like interest rate and maturity to the designated transferee or transferees. (b) Notes may likewise be exchanged for one or more other Notes with the same interest rate and maturity in authorized denominations aggregating the same principal amount as the Note or Notes being exchanged, upon surrender of the Note or Notes and the submission of written instructions to the Registrar or, in the case of bearer Notes, to the Paying Agent. Upon receipt of a Note with proper written instructions the Registrar or Paying Agent shall authenticate and deliver a new Note or Notes to the owner thereof or to the owner's attorney-in-fact. (c) Any service charge made by the Registrar or Paying Agent for any such registration, transfer or exchange shall be paid for by the County as an expense of borrowing, unless otherwise agreed by the Treasurer and the Registrar or Paying Agent. The Registrar or Paying Agent may, however, require payment by a knotholes of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection with any such registration, transfer or exchange. 208. Book Entry Depository Trust. At the option of the Treasurer, and notwithstanding any contrary provision of Section 212, the Notes may be deposited, in whole or in part, with a depository trustee designated by the Treasurer who shall transfer ownership of interests in the Notes by book entry and who shall issue depository trust receipts or acknowledgments to owners of interests in the Notes. Such book entry depository


109

trust arrangement, and the form of depository trust receipts or acknowledgments, shall be as determined by the Treasurer after consultation with the depository trustee. The Treasurer is authorized to enter into any depository trust agreement on behalf of the County upon such terms and conditions as the Treasurer shall deem appropriate and not otherwise prohibited by the terms of this Resolution. The depository trustee may be the same as the Registrar otherwise named by the Treasurer, and the Notes may be transferred in part by depository trust and in part by transfer of physical certificates as the Treasurer may determine. 209. Redemption. (a) Subject to the authority granted the Treasurer pursuant to subsection (c) of this Section (in the case of fixed rate Notes) and to the authority granted the Treasurer pursuant to Section 404 (in the case of variable rate Notes), the Notes or any maturity or maturities of the Notes shall be subject to redemption prior to maturity on the terms set forth in subsection (b) below. (b) Notes scheduled to mature after the first date on which any Notes of the series are scheduled to mature shall be subject to redemption, in inverse order of maturity, on each interest payment date arising after the date of issue. (c) If the Treasurer shall determine such action necessary to enhance the marketability of the Notes or to reduce the interest rate to be offered by prospective purchasers on any maturity of the Notes, the Treasurer may, by written order prior to the issuance of such Notes, (i) designate some or all of the Notes as non-callable, regardless of their maturity date, and/or (ii) delay the first date on which the redemption of callable Notes would otherwise be authorized under subsection (b) above. (d) Notes of any maturity subject to redemption may be redeemed before their scheduled maturity date, in whole or in part, on any permitted redemption date or dates, subject to the written order of the Treasurer. Notes called for redemption shall be redeemed at par, plus accrued interest to the redemption date, plus, if the Treasurer so orders, a premium of not more than 1%. Redemption may be made by lot or pro rata, as shall be determined by the Treasurer. (e) With respect to partial redemptions, any portion of a Note outstanding in a denomination larger than the minimum authorized denomination may be redeemed, provided such portion as well as the amount not being redeemed constitute authorized denominations. In the event less than the entire principal amount of a Note is called for redemption, the Registrar or Paying Agent shall, upon surrender of the Note by the owner thereof, authenticate and deliver to the owner a new Note in the principal amount of the principal portion not redeemed. (f) Notice of redemption shall be by first class mail 30 days prior to the date fixed for redemption, or such shorter time prior to the date fixed for redemption as may be consented to by the holders of all outstanding Notes to be called for redemption. Such notice shall fix the date of record with respect to the redemption if different than otherwise provided in this Resolution. Any defect in any notice shall not affect the validity of the redemption proceedings. Notes so called for redemption shall not bear interest after the date fixed for redemption, provided funds are on hand with a paying agent to redeem the same. 210. Discount. At the option of the Treasurer, the Notes may be offered for sale at a discount not to exceed 2%. 211. Public or Private Sale. The Treasurer may, at the Treasurer's option, conduct a public sale of the Notes after which sale the Treasurer shall either award the Notes to the lowest bidder or reject all bids. The conditions of sale shall be as specified in a published Notice of Sale prepared by the Treasurer announcing the principal terms of the Notes and the offering. Alternatively, the Treasurer may, at the Treasurer's option, negotiate a private sale of the Notes as provided in Act 206. If required by law, or if otherwise determined by the Treasurer to be in the best interest of the County, (a) the Notes shall be rated by a national rating agency selected by the Treasurer, (b) a good faith deposit shall be required of the winning bidder, and/or (c) CUSP numbers shall be assigned to the Notes. If a public sale is conducted or if otherwise required by law or the purchaser of the Notes, the Treasurer shall prepare or cause to be prepared and disseminated an offering


110

memorandum or official statement containing all material terms of the offer and sale of the Notes. Pursuant to any sale of the Notes, the County shall make such filings, shall solicit such information and shall obtain such governmental approvals as shall be required pursuant to any state or federal law respecting back-up income tax withholding, securities regulation, original issue discount or other regulated matter. 212. Execution and Delivery. The Treasurer is authorized and directed to execute the Notes on behalf of the County by manual or facsimile signature, provided that if the facsimile signature is used the Notes shall be authenticated by the Registrar or any tender agent as may be appointed pursuant to Section 801(c). The Notes shall be sealed with the County seal or imprinted with a facsimile of such seal. The Treasurer is authorized and directed to then deliver the Notes to the purchaser thereof upon receipt of the purchase price. The Notes shall be delivered at the expense of the County in such city or cities as may be designated by the Treasurer. 213. Renewal, Refunding or Advance Refunding Notes. If at any time it appears to be in the best interests of the County, the Treasurer, by written order, may authorize the issuance of renewal, refunding or advance refunding Notes. The terms of such Notes, and the procedures incidental to their issuance, shall be set subject to Section 309 and, in appropriate cases, Article X.

III. SHORT TERM RENEWABLE NOTES

301. Authority. At the option of the Treasurer, exercisable by written order, Notes may be issued in accordance with this Article III. All references to "Notes" in Article III refer only to Notes issued pursuant to Article III, unless otherwise specified. 302. Date and Maturity. The Notes shall be dated as of their date of issuance or any prior date selected by the Treasurer, and each issuance thereof shall mature on such date or dates not exceeding one year from the date of their issuance as may be specified by written order of the Treasurer. 303. Interest and Date of Record. The Notes shall bear interest payable at maturity at such rate or rates as may be determined by the Treasurer not exceeding the maximum rate of interest permitted by law on the date the Notes are issued. The date of record shall be not fewer than two nor more than 31 days before the date of payment, as designated by the Treasurer prior to the sale of the Notes. 304. Note Form. The form of Note shall be consistent with the prescriptions of this Resolution and shall reflect all material terms of the Notes. The Notes shall, in the discretion of the Treasurer and consistent with Section 205, either be payable to bearer or be issued in registered form. If issued in registered form, the Notes may be constituted as book-entry securities consistent with Section 208, notwithstanding any contrary provision of Section 308. 305. Denomination and Numbers. The Notes shall be issued in one or more denomination or denominations, as determined by the Treasurer. The Notes shall be numbered from one upwards in such order as the Treasurer determines. 306. Redemption. The Notes shall not be subject to redemption prior to maturity. 307. Sale of Notes. The authority and obligations of the Treasurer set forth in Sections 210 and 211 respecting Fixed Maturity Notes shall apply also to Notes issued under Article III. 308. Execution and Delivery. The authority and obligations of the Treasurer set forth in Section 212 respecting Fixed Maturity Notes shall also apply to Notes issued under Article III. 309. Renewal or Refunding Notes. (a) The Treasurer may by written order authorize the issuance of renewal or refunding Notes (collectively the "Renewal Notes"). Renewal Notes shall be sold on the maturity date of, and the proceeds


111

applied to the payment of debt service on, the Notes to be renewed. The maturities and repayment terms of the Renewal Notes shall be set by written order of the Treasurer. (b) In the order authorizing Renewal Notes, the Treasurer shall specify whether the Notes shall be issued in accordance with this Article III, in which event the provisions of Article III shall govern the issuance of the Notes, or whether the Notes shall be issued in accordance with Article II, in which event the provisions of Article II shall govern the issuance of the Notes. The order shall also provide for and shall also govern with respect to: (i) the aggregate amount of the Renewal Notes; (ii) the date of the Renewal Notes; (iii) the denominations of the Renewal Notes; (iv) the interest payment dates of the Renewal Notes; (v) the maturity or maturities of the Renewal Notes; (vi) the terms of sale of the Renewal Notes; (vii) whether any Renewal Notes issued in accordance with Article II shall be subject to redemption and, if so, the terms thereof; and (viii) any other terms of the Renewal Notes consistent with, but not specified in, Article II or Article III. (c) Regardless of whether Renewal Notes need be approved by prior order of the Department of Treasury, the Treasurer, pursuant to Section 89(5)(d) of Act 206, shall promptly report to the Department of Treasury the issuance of any Renewal Notes.

IV. VARIABLE INTEREST RATE

401. Variable Rate Option. At the option of the Treasurer, exercisable by written order, the Notes, whether issued pursuant to Article II or Article III, may be issued with a variable interest rate, provided that the rate shall not exceed the maximum rate of interest permitted by law. 402. Determination of Rate. The order of the Treasurer shall provide how often the variable interest rate shall be subject to recalculation, the formula or procedure for determining the variable interest rate, whether and on what terms the rate shall be determined by a remarketing agent in the case of demand obligations consistent with Section 801(d), and whether and on what terms a fixed rate of interest may be converted to or from a variable rate of interest. Such formula or procedure shall be as determined by the Treasurer, but shall track or float within a specified percentage band around the rates generated by any one or more of the following indices: (i) Publicly reported prices or yields of obligations of the United States of America; (ii) An index of municipal obligations periodically reported by a nationally recognized source; (iii) The prime lending rate from time to time set by any bank or trust company in the United States with unimpaired capital and surplus exceeding $40,000,000; (iv) Any other rate or index that may be designated by order of the Treasurer provided such rate or index is set or reported by a source which is independent of and not controlled by the Treasurer or the County.


112

The procedure for determining the variable rate may involve one or more of the above indices as alternatives or may involve the setting of the rate by a municipal bond specialist provided such rate shall be within a stated percentage range of one or more of the indices set forth above. 403. Date of Record. The Date of Record shall be not fewer than one nor more than 31 days before the date of payment, as designated by written order of the Treasurer. 404. Redemption. Notwithstanding any contrary provision of subsections (b) and (c) of Section 209, but subject to the last sentence of this Section 404, Notes bearing interest at a variable rate may be subject to redemption by the County and/or put by the holder at any time or times and in any order, as may be determined pursuant to written order of the Treasurer. Notes shall not be subject to redemption more frequently than monthly. 405. Remarketing, Repurchase and Resale. (a) In the event Notes issued under this Article IV are constituted as demand obligations, the interest rate on the Notes shall be governed by, and shall be subject to, remarketing by a remarketing agent appointed in accordance with Section 801(c), under the terms of a put agreement employed in accordance with Section 801(d). (b) The County shall be authorized, consistent with Act 206 and pursuant to order of the Treasurer, to participate in the repurchase and resale of Notes in order to reduce the cost of, or increase the revenue, attendant to the establishment of the Revolving Fund and the issuance and discharge of the Notes. Any purchase of Notes pursuant to this subsection (b) shall be made with unpledged monies drawn from revolving funds established by the County in connection with retired general obligation limited tax notes.

V.

MULTIPLE SERIES 501. Issuance of Multiple Series. At the option of the Treasurer, exercisable by written order, the Notes issued under Articles II, Article III or Article X may be issued in two or more individually designated series. Each series shall bear its own rate of interest, which may be fixed or variable in accordance with Article IV. Various series need not be issued at the same time and may be issued from time to time in the discretion of the Treasurer exercisable by written order. In determining the dates of issuance of the respective series, the Treasurer shall consider, among other pertinent factors, the impact the dates selected may have on the marketability, rating and/or qualification for credit support or liquidity support for, or insurance of, the Notes.

The Notes of each such series shall be issued according to this Resolution in all respects (and the term "Notes" shall be deemed to include each series of Notes throughout this Resolution), provided that: (a) The aggregate principal amount of the Notes of all series shall not exceed the maximum aggregate amount permitted under Section 103; (b) Each series shall be issued pursuant to Article II or Article III, and different series may be issued pursuant to different Articles; (c) Each series shall be issued pursuant to Section 502 or Section 503, and different series may be issued pursuant to different Sections; (d) A series may be issued under Article II for one, two, or three of the annual maturities set forth in Article II with the balance of the annual maturities being issued under Article II or under Article III in one or more other series, provided that the minimum annual maturities set forth in Section 203 shall be reduced and applied pro rata to all Notes so issued; and (e) The Notes of all series issued pursuant to Article II above shall not, in aggregate, mature in amounts or on dates exceeding the maximum authorized maturities set forth in Section 203.


113

502. Series Secured Pari Passu. If the Notes are issued in multiple series pursuant to this Article V, each series of Notes may, by written order of the Treasurer, be secured pari passu with the other by the security described in and the amounts pledged by Article VII below. Moreover, such security may, pursuant to further written order of the Treasurer, be segregated in accordance with the following provisions. (a) The Treasurer may by written order establish separate sub-accounts in the County's 2009 Note Reserve Account for each series of Notes, into which shall be deposited the amount borrowed for the Note Reserve Account for each such series. (b) The Treasurer may by written order establish separate sub-accounts in the County's 2009 Note Payment Account for each series of Notes, and all amounts deposited in the Note Payment Account shall be allocated to the sub-accounts. (c)(i) In the event separate sub-accounts are established pursuant to subsection (b) above, and subject to Paragraph (ii) below, the percentage of deposits to the County's 2009 Note Payment Account allocated to each sub-account may be set equal to the percentage that Notes issued in the corresponding series bears to all Notes issued under this Resolution or to any other percentage designated by the Treasurer pursuant to written order; provided that if the various series are issued at different times or if the various series are structured with different maturity dates, (I) sums deposited in the Note Payment Account prior to the issuance of one or more series may upon the issuance of each such series be reallocated among the various sub-accounts established under Subsection (b) above to achieve a balance among the sub-accounts proportionate to the designated percentage allocation, and/or (II) deposits to the Note Payment Account may be allocated among the sub-accounts according to the total amount of debt service that will actually be paid from the respective sub-accounts. (ii) Alternatively, the Treasurer may, by written order, rank the sub-accounts established under Subsection (b) above in order of priority, and specify that each such sub-account shall receive deposits only after all sub-accounts having a higher priority have received deposits sufficient to discharge all (or any specified percentage of) Notes whose series corresponds to any of the sub-accounts having priority. (d) In the absence of a written order of the Treasurer to the contrary, the amounts in each sub-account established pursuant to this Section 502 shall secure only the Notes issued in the series for which such sub-account was established, until such Notes and interest on such Notes are paid in full, after which the amounts in such sub-account may, pursuant to written order of the Treasurer, be added pro rata to the amounts in the other sub-accounts and thereafter used as part of such other sub-accounts to secure all Notes and interest on such Notes for which such other sub-accounts were created, until paid in full. Alternatively, amounts held in two or more sub-accounts within either the Note Reserve Account or the Note Payment Account may be commingled, and if commingled shall be held pari passu for the benefit of the holders of each series of Notes pertaining to the relevant sub-accounts. 503. Series Independently Secured. If the Notes are issued in multiple series pursuant to this Article V, each series of Notes may, by written order of the Treasurer, be independently secured in accordance with this Section 503. (a) Each series of Notes shall pertain to one or more taxing units, as designated by the Treasurer pursuant to written order, and no two series of Notes shall pertain to the same taxing unit. A school district, intermediate school district, or community college district extending beyond the boundaries of a city in which it is located may, pursuant to written order of the Treasurer, be subdivided along the boundaries of one or more cities and each such subdivision shall be deemed a taxing unit for purposes of this Section 503. (b) Separate sub-accounts shall be established in the County's 2009 Tax Payment Account. Each sub-account shall receive the proceeds of one and only one series of Notes, and amounts shall be disbursed from the sub-account to only those taxing units designated as being in that series. (c) In the event Notes are issued for deposit into the Project Account established under Section 701, separate sub-accounts shall be established in the Project Account. Each sub-account shall receive the


114

proceeds of one and only one series of Notes, and amounts shall be disbursed from the sub-account only to accounts, sub-accounts and/or taxing units designated as being in the series corresponding to the sub-account from which disbursement is being made. (d) A separate sub-account shall be established in the County's 2009 Note Reserve Account for each series of Notes, into which shall be deposited the amount determined by the Treasurer under Section 103 or Section 703 with respect to the series. Each sub-account shall secure one and only one series. (e) A separate sub-account shall be established in the County's 2009 Note Payment Account for each series of Notes. Each sub-account shall be allocated only those amounts described in Section 704 which pertain to the taxing units included in the series corresponding to the sub-account. Chargebacks received from a taxing unit pursuant to Section 905 shall be deposited in the sub-account corresponding to the series in which the taxing unit is included. Amounts held in each sub-account shall secure the debt represented by only those Notes included in the series corresponding to the sub-account, and disbursements from each sub-account may be applied toward the payment of only those Notes included in the series corresponding to the sub-account. (f) The amounts in each sub-account established pursuant to this Section 503 shall secure only the Notes issued in the series for which such sub-account was established until such Notes and interest on such Notes are paid in full, after which any amounts remaining in such sub-account shall accrue to the County and shall no longer be pledged toward payment of the Notes.

VI. TAXABILITY OF INTEREST

601. Federal Tax. The County acknowledges that the current state of Federal law mandates that the Notes be structured as taxable obligations. Consequently, the Notes shall, subject to Article X, be issued as obligations the interest on which is not excluded from gross income for purposes of Federal income tax. 602. State of Michigan Tax. Consistent with the treatment accorded all obligations issued pursuant to Act 206, interest on the Notes shall be exempt from the imposition of the State of Michigan income tax and the State of Michigan single business tax, and the Notes shall not be subject to the State of Michigan intangibles tax. 603. Change in Federal Tax Status. In the event there is a change in the Federal tax law or regulations, or a ruling by the U.S. Department of Treasury or Internal Revenue Service establishes that the Notes may be issued as exempt from Federal income taxes or a change in Michigan law causes the Notes in the opinion of counsel to be exempt from federal income taxes, the Notes may be so issued.

VII. FUNDS AND SECURITY

701. Delinquent Tax Project Account. If the Notes are issued and sold before the Treasurer has received certification from the taxing units of the amount of the Delinquent Taxes and if such certification is not reasonably anticipated in time to allow distribution of the proceeds of the Notes within 20 days after the date of issue, a 2009 Delinquent Tax Project Account (the "Project Account") shall be established by the Treasurer as a separate and distinct fund of the County within its general fund. The Project Account shall receive all proceeds from the sale of the Notes, including any premium or accrued interest received at the time of sale. The Project Account shall be held in trust by an escrow agent until the monies therein are disbursed in accordance with this Article VII. The escrow agent shall be a commercial bank, shall be located in Michigan, shall have authority to exercise trust powers, and shall have a net worth in excess of $25,000,000. The form and content of the agreement between the County and the escrow agent shall be approved by the Treasurer. Subject to the following sentence, monies deposited in the Project Account shall be expended only (i) for the purpose of funding the Tax Payment Account established under Section 702 and (ii) to the extent permitted by Act 206, for the purpose of paying the expenses of the offering of the Notes. In the event the Treasurer by written order so directs, additional funding of the Project Account may be undertaken, and any surplus proceeds remaining in the Project Account after the Treasurer has completed the funding of the Tax Payment Account may be


115

transferred to either the 2009 Note Reserve Account created under Section 703 or the 2009 Note Payment Account created under Section 704. Monies in the Project Account may be disbursed by the escrow agent to the County's 2009 Tax Payment Account at any time and from time to time, upon receipt of a written requisition signed by the Treasurer. 702. 2009 Tax Payment Account. The County's 2009 Tax Payment Account (the "Tax Payment Account") is hereby established as a distinct account within the Revolving Fund. The Treasurer shall designate all or a portion of the proceeds of the Notes, not to exceed the amount of Delinquent Taxes, for deposit in the Tax Payment Account. If, however, the proceeds of the Notes are initially deposited in the Project Account pursuant to Section 701, the Treasurer is instead authorized and directed to transfer monies included in the Project Account in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 701. The County shall apply the monies in the Tax Payment Account to the payment of the Delinquent Taxes or expenses of the borrowing in accordance with Act 206. The allocation of monies from the Tax Payment Account may be made pursuant to a single, comprehensive disbursement or may instead be made from time to time, within the time constraints of Act 206, to particular taxing units as monies are paid into the Tax Payment Account, such that the source of the monies (whether from the County's own funds, from the proceeds of a tax exempt borrowing or from the proceeds of a taxable borrowing) may be traced to the particular taxing unit receiving the funds. Moreover, and regardless of whether multiple series of Notes are issued, the Tax Payment Account may be divided into separate sub-accounts in order to allow the Treasurer to designate which taxing units shall receive borrowed funds and which shall receive funds otherwise contributed by the County. 703. 2009 Note Reserve Account. In the event funding is provided as described in this Section 703, the Treasurer shall establish a 2009 Note Reserve Account (the "Note Reserve Account") as a distinct account within the Revolving Fund. After depositing all of the monies to fund the Tax Payment Account pursuant to Section 702, the Treasurer shall next transfer to the Note Reserve Account, either from the Project Account or directly from the proceeds of Notes, any proceeds remaining from the initial issuance of the Notes. In addition, the Treasurer may transfer unpledged monies from other County sources to the Note Reserve Account in an amount which, when added to any other amounts to be deposited in the Note Reserve Account, does not exceed the amount reasonably required for the Notes secured by the Reserve Account or, if less, 20% of the total amount of the Notes secured by the Reserve Account. Except as provided below, all monies in the Note Reserve Account shall be used solely for payment of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes to the extent that monies required for such payment are not available in the County's 2009 Note Payment Account. Monies in the Note Reserve Account shall be withdrawn first for payment of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes before County general funds are used to make the payments. All income or interest earned by, or increment to, the Note Reserve Account due to its investment or reinvestment shall be deposited in the Note Reserve Account. When the Note Reserve Account is sufficient to retire the Notes and accrued interest thereon, the Treasurer may order that the Note Reserve Account be used to purchase the Notes on the market, or, if the Notes are not available, to retire the Notes when due. If so ordered by the Treasurer, all or any specified portion of the Note Reserve Account may be applied toward the redemption of any Notes designated for redemption in accordance with Section 209. 704. 2009 Note Payment Account.

IX. MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

901. Expenses. Expenses incurred in connection with the Notes shall be paid from the property tax administration fees collected on the Delinquent Taxes and, if so ordered by the Treasurer, from any earnings on the proceeds of the offering or from other monies available to the County. 902. Bond Counsel. The Notes (and any renewal, refunding or advance refunding Notes) shall be delivered with the unqualified opinion of Axe & Ecklund, P.C., attorneys of Grosse Pointe Farms, Michigan, bond counsel chosen by the Treasurer, which selection may, at the option of the Treasurer, be for one or more years. 903. Financial Consultants. Stauder, BARCH & ASSOCIATES, Inc., Ann Arbor, Michigan, is hereby retained to act as financial consultant and advisor to the County in connection with the sale and delivery of the Notes. 904. Complete Records. The Treasurer shall keep full and complete records of all deposits to and withdrawals from each of the funds and accounts in the Revolving Fund and any account or sub-account created pursuant to this Resolution and of all other transactions relating to such funds, accounts and sub-accounts, including investments of money in, and gain derived from, such funds and accounts. 905. Chargebacks. If, by the date which is three months prior to the final maturity date of the Notes, sufficient monies are not on deposit in the Note Payment Account and the Note Reserve Account to pay all principal of and interest on the Notes when due, Delinquent Taxes not then paid or recovered at or prior to the latest tax sale transacted two or more months before the final maturity of the Notes shall, if necessary to ensure full and timely payment on the date of final maturity, be charged back to the local units in such fashion as the Treasurer may determine, and, subject to Article V, the proceeds of such chargebacks shall be deposited into the County's 2009 Note Payment Account no later than five weeks prior to the final maturity of the Notes. This Section 905 shall not be construed to limit the authority of the Treasurer under State law to charge back under other circumstances or at other times. 906. Investments. The Treasurer is authorized to invest all monies in the Project Account, in the Revolving Fund or in any account or sub-account therein which is established pursuant to this Resolution in any one or more of the investments authorized as lawful investments for counties under Act No. 20, Public Acts of 1943, as amended. The Treasurer is further authorized to enter into a contract on behalf of the County under the


119

Surplus Funds Investment Pool Act, Act No. 367, Michigan Public Acts of 1982, as amended, and to invest in any investment pool created thereby monies held in the Project Account, in the Revolving Fund, or in any account or sub-account therein which is established pursuant to this Resolution. 907. Mutilated, Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Notes. In the event any Note is mutilated, lost, stolen, or destroyed, the Treasurer may, on behalf of the County, execute and deliver, or order the Registrar or Paying Agent to authenticate and deliver, a new Note having a number not then outstanding, of like date, maturity and denomination as that mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed. In the case of a mutilated Note, a replacement Note shall not be delivered unless and until such mutilated Note is surrendered to the Treasurer or the Registrar or Paying Agent. In the case of a lost, stolen, or destroyed Note, a replacement Note shall not be delivered unless and until the Treasurer and the Registrar or Paying Agent shall have received such proof of ownership and loss and indemnity as they determine to be sufficient.

ARTICLE X. TAX-EXEMPT NOTES OR REFUNDING

1001. Refunding of Taxable Debt or Issuance of Tax-Exempt Debt. The County acknowledges that the current state of Federal law precludes the issuance of the Notes as obligations the interest on which is exempt from Federal income tax. However, the County presently contemplates either that anticipated amendments to the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the "Code") and/or the Treasury Regulations issued thereunder (the "Regulations") or a change in Michigan law changing the character of the Notes may in the future permit the issuance of general obligation limited tax notes on a tax-exempt basis, and, in view of this expectation, the County, through the offices of the Treasurer, shall issue tax-exempt notes or issue obligations to refund any or all outstanding Notes issued as taxable obligations, at the time, on the terms, and to the extent set forth in this Article X. 1002. Timing of Refunding. The aforementioned refunding obligations (the "Refunding Notes") shall be issued after the effective date of any change in the Code, Regulations, Internal Revenue Service pronouncements or judicial rulings which, as confirmed by the written opinion of bond counsel, permit the refunding of all or some of the outstanding Notes with proceeds from obligations the interest on which is excluded from gross income for purposes of Federal income tax. 1003. Extent of Refunding. Subject to the other provisions of this Section 1003, the Refunding Notes shall refund all Notes outstanding at or after the effective date of any change in the law described in Section 1002. This Section 1003 shall not, however, be construed to require the refunding of any Note prior to the time such Note may be refunded on a tax-exempt basis, nor shall this Section 1003 be construed to require the refunding of any Note, if that refunding would result in greater cost to the County (including interest expense, professional fees and administrative outlays) than would arise if the Note were to remain outstanding. 1004. Confirmatory Action. Subsequent to any change in the law described in Section 1002, the Board shall convene to consider any terms of the Refunding Notes requiring specific ratification by the Board. 1005. Arbitrary Covenant and Tax Law Compliance. In the event tax-exempt Notes or Refunding Notes are issued pursuant to this Article X, the following covenants shall be observed by the County: (i) the County will make no use of the proceeds of the Notes or Refunding Notes and will undertake no other intentional act with respect to the Notes or Refunding Notes which, if such use or act had been reasonably expected on the date of issuance of the Notes or Refunding Notes or if such use or act were intentionally made or undertaken after the date of issuance of the Notes or Refunding Notes, would cause the Notes or Refunding Notes to be "arbitrary bonds," as defined in Section 148 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), in the Regulations promulgated under Sections 103 and 148 of the Code or in any successor or supplementary provision of law hereinafter promulgated, (ii) the County will undertake all actions as shall be necessary to maintain the Notes or Refunding Notes as obligations the interest on which qualifies for the tax exemption provided by Section 103(a) of the Code, including, where appropriate and without limitation, filing informational returns with the Secretary


120

of Treasury, keeping accurate account of all monies earned in any fund, account or sub-account authorized by this Resolution or any resolution adopted in accordance with Section 1004 above, certifying cumulative cash flow deficits of the County and the local units, and investing any required portion of the gross proceeds of the Notes or Refunding Notes, whether on behalf of the County or the local units, in tax-exempt obligations or State and Local Government Series obligations, and (iii) the County will make timely payment to the United States of any investment earnings, realized by the County on the gross proceeds of the Notes or Refunding Notes, as may be subject to rebate under Section 148(f) of the Code, and, to the extent required under applicable law or deemed by the Treasurer to be in the best interest of the County pursuant to written order, the County's obligation to make such payment to the United States shall also account for excess investment earnings realized by local units on all or a portion of the gross proceeds distributed to, and held by, the local units pursuant to Section 702.

(iv) the Treasurer shall be directed to take such actions and to enter into such agreements and

certifications, on behalf of the County, as the Treasurer shall deem necessary or appropriate to comply with the foregoing covenants.

1006. Undertaking to Provide Continuing Disclosure. If necessary, this Board of Commissioners, for and on behalf of the County of Ingham, hereby covenants and agrees, for the benefit of the beneficial owners of the Notes to be issued by the County, to enter into a written undertaking (the "Undertaking") required by Rule 15c2-12 promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Rule") to provide continuing disclosure of certain financial information and operating data and timely notices of the occurrence of certain events in accordance with the Rule. The Undertaking shall be substantially in the form as approved by the Underwriter of the Notes. The Undertaking shall be enforceable by the beneficial owners of Notes or by the Underwriter on behalf of such beneficial owners (provided that the Underwriter's right to enforce the provisions of the Undertaking shall be limited to a right to obtain specific enforcement of the County's obligations hereunder and under the Undertaking), and any failure by the County to comply with the provisions of the Undertaking shall not be deemed a default with respect to the Notes. The County Treasurer or other officer of the County charged with the responsibility for issuing the Notes shall provide a Continuing Disclosure Certificate for inclusion in the transcript of proceedings, setting forth the terms of the County's Undertaking.

Resolution

Whereas, The property tax system in the State of Michigan is an ad valorem system and as such property

owners pay, within the framework of the constitution, equitable taxes based on the value of their

property; and,

Whereas, Proposal A was passed by the voters ofthe State of Michigan in 1994 to limit the increase in taxable

value, within the existing and continuing ad valorem framework, in such a way as to allow a property

owner to predict future property tax burden by the change in the consumer price index and physical

improvements to the property while that owner held the property; and,

Whereas, Many property owners have received significant benefit from the limitation on increase in taxable

value mandated by Proposal A by paying property taxes on a basis less than the value of their property

and continue to realized that significant benefit in the current economic circumstances; and,

Whereas, Recent purchasers of property, many younger and with less stability in their finances, are already

shouldering a greater share of the relative tax burden because the basis for their property taxes is the full

value of their property; and,

Whereas, The Michigan Senate has passed Senate Joint Resolution H, (SJR-H), a proposal to amend Article 9,

Section 3 of the 1963 Constitution ofthe State of Michigan by requiring that, effective in 2010, the

taxable value of a property would be unchanged if the assessed value of that property declined and the

taxable value was less than the assessed value; and,

Whereas, While the intent of Proposal A was to provide stability and predictability for property owners, the

intent of this proposed amendment is to, in declining markets, freeze the position of relative tax benefit

that certain property owners enjoy while other property owners continue to pay property taxes on the

constitutional ad valorem basis; and,

Whereas, In addition to the unfair shift in relative tax burden that will result from this proposal, the reduced

revenue to local taxing authorities will likely result in reduced services, increased millage rates or both,

which will exacerbate the shift in the relative tax burden.

Now Therefore be it Resolved, that the Lenawee County Board of Commissioners opposes Senate Joint

Resolution H> (SJR-H), because the proposal contradicts the long history of a fair and equitable tax

structure in the State of Michigan and promotes poor tax policy by shifting the relative tax burden of the

property tax without regard to the consequences to affected taxpayers and local taxing authorities; and,

Lenawee County Board ofCommissioners

Resolution - Opposition to SJR-H

April 8, 2009

Page 2 of2

Be it Further Resolved, that while the Lenawee County Board of Commissioners opposes SJR-H because it

does not provide an equitable solution to Michigan's property tax concerns, the Lenawee County Board

requests that the Legislature of the State of Michigan work together with the Governor to examine all

taxes, including the Michigan Business Tax, income tax, sales tax, use tax and property tax, with a goal

of providing a means of generating revenue and managing expenditures that is fair and equitable to all

the taxpayers of the state; and

Be it Further Resolved, that copies of this Resolution be sent to Governor Jennifer M. Granholm, Senator

Cameron Brown, Representative Dudley Spade, Representative Mike Simpson, the Michigan

Association of Counties, the Michigan Municipal League, the Michigan Townships Association, the

Clerks of all Municipalities within Lenawee County, and the County Clerks of all Michigan Counties.

APR 15 2009

Moved by Mr. Powers and seconded by Ms. Kolbe to adopt the following Resolution: M-r-?.,AM BOUNTY CLERK

WHEREAS, State, County and Municipal roads are deteriorating at a record pace; and

WHEREAS, the longer quality maintenance is deferred due to lack of funding, the more it will cost to

bring our county and state road network back into quality condition; and

WHEREAS, our state and county are in the single worse economic downturn since the Great Depression

and business development is less likely to occur if our road and highway infrastructure is failing;

and

WHEREAS, investment in our road infrastructure will provide needed improvement and provide good

paying jobs in our state and these wages will be spent in Oceana County and Michigan to further

assist our economy; and

WHEREAS, the state and other road commissions in the state have either laid off employees; reduced

employment by attrition; or, reduced maintenance schedules such as snow removal; and

WHEREAS, since the 1960s, Michigan has ranked among the lowest of all states, on a per capita basis,

of investing in our infrastructure; and

WHEREAS, the State of Michigan may see additional federal dollars through President Obama's

national stimulus plan that is specified for "shovel-ready" projects; however, many communities

are not likely to see any new road projects with this money. In addition, stimulus money cannot

be used for patching potholes or snowplowing roads. Furthermore, the stimulus plan is designed

as a one-time "shot in the arm" and not a solution to fix Michigan's chronically underfunded and

failing transportation system; and

WHEREAS, the Director of the Michigan Department of Transportation has testified before the House

and Senate Transportation Committees of the Michigan Legislature that the stimulus package is

not an answer to highway and road funding of Michigan; and

WHEREAS, numerous voices across the state - major newspapers, road industry trade associations,

municipal and county associations, labor organizations and chambers of commerce - have

expressed that Michigan must invest more dollars into road maintenance.

THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED: That the Oceana County Board of Commissioners hereby requests

the Governor and Michigan Legislature to implement a plan to improve Michigan roads and

roadways.

THEREFORE, BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED: That a copy of this resolution be forwarded to Governor

Granholm, Senator Gerald Van Woerkom, Representative Goeff Hansen, the Michigan

Association of Counties, the Oceana County Road Commission and the other 82 Michigan

County Clerks.

Roll call vote: Powers, yes; Kolbe, yes; Byl, yes; Malburg, yes; Brown, yes; Simon, yes; and, Van Sickle,

yes. Motion carried.
