The City and the Successor Agency

The City was incorporated on August 3, 1946, as a general law city which pr0.tides for a Council­Adninistrator form of g0.ternment. The City encompasses an area of approximately 800 acres located in the northwestern corner of the County of Santa Barbara (the "County") and as of January 1, 2017 had a population of approximately 7,300. The City is located at the western end of the Santa Maria Valley (the "Santa Maria Valley") which is the alluvial plain of the Santa Maria River. The topography of the City is virtually flat. There is a difference of only a fe.v feet between the highest and lo.vest points in the City. For certain information with respect to the City, see APPENDIX G - "SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION-CITY OF GUADALUPE."

The G uadal upe Community Rede.tel opment Agency ( the "Predecessor Agency") was establ i shed pursuant to the Redevelopment Law b,I the City Counci I on J uly 23, 1985. On J une 29, 2011, Asserrbly Bill No. 26 ("AB xl 26") was enacted as Chapter 5, Statutes of 2011, together with a companion bill, Assembly Bill No. 27 ("AB xl 27"). The pr0.tisions of AB xl 26 pr0.tided for the dissolution of all redevelopment agencies. The pr0.tisions of AB xl 27 pernitted redevelopment agencies to avoid dissolution b,I the payment of certain amounts. A lawsuit was brought in the California Supreme Court, California Rede.telopmentAssociation, et al., v. Matosantos, et al., 53 Cal. 4th 231 (Cal. Dec. 29, 2011), challenging the constitutionality of AB xl 26 and AB xl 27. The California Supreme Court largely upheld AB xl 26, invalidated AB xl 27, and held that AB xl 26 may be severed from AB xl 27 and enforced independently. As a result of AB xl 26 and the decision of the California Supreme Court in the California Rede.telopment Association case, as of February 1, 2012, all redevelopment agencies in the State were dissolved, including the Predecessor Agency, and successor agencies were designated as successor entities to the former redevelopment agencies to expeditiously wind do.vn the affairs of the former rede.telopment agencies.

The primary pr0.ti si ons enacted b,I AB X 1 26 rel ati ng to the di ssol uti on and wi ndi ng dONn of former rede.telopment agency affairs are Parts 1.8 (commencing with Section 34161) and 1.85 (commencing with Section 34170) of Division 24 of the Health & Safety Code of the State, as amended onJ une 27, 2012 b,I Assembly Bill No. 1484 ("AB 1484"), enacted as Chapter 26, Statutes of 2012 and as further amended on September 22, 2015 b,I Senate Bill 107 ("SB 107"), enacted as Chapter 325, Statutes of 2015 (collectively, as amended from time to time, the "Dissolution Act").

The Predecessor Agency was activated b,I the City Council of the City with the adoption of Ordinance No. 85-246 on February 4, 1985. Under the pr0.tisions of ABxl 26, the City became the Successor Agency to the Predecessor Agency for the purpose of paying certain enforceable obligations, including the Refunded Bonds, and winding up the affairs of the Predecessor Agency pursuant to ABxl 26. Subdivision (g) of Section 34173 of the Health and Safety Code of the State of California (the "Health and Safety Code"), added b,I AB 1484, expressly affirms that the Successor Agency is a separate public entity from the City, that the two entities shall not merge, and that the liabilities of the Predecessor

Agency will not be transferred to the City nor will the assets of the Predecessor Agency become assets of the City.

The Redevelopment Plan

The Guadalupe Redevelopment Prqject Area (the "Prqject Area") was formally established with the adoption by the City Council of a redevelopment plan for the Prqject Area (the "Redevelopment Plan") by Ordinance No. 85-263 enacted by the City Council on December 19, 1985. The Prqject Area encompasses approximately 850 acres constituting the majority of the City. The Redevelopment Plan, as set forth under the terms of the Redevelopment Law, pro.tided for the ternination of the Redevelopment Plan activities on December 19, 2025. The Redevelopment Plan was amended by Ordinance No. 2007-388, adopted on Ncweniber 13, 2007, which elininated the time limit to incur debt and by Ordinance No. 09-398, which was adopted on May 26, 2009, which increased the annual tax increment Ii nit. SB 107, which became effective September 22, 2015, amended the Dissolution Act to pro.tide that the time limits for receiving property tax revenues and the limitation on the amount of property tax revenues that may be received by the Predecessor Agency and the Successor Agency set forth in the Redevelopment Plan are not effective for purposes of paying the Successor Agency's enforceable obligations. Accordingly, the prqjections set forth in this Official Statement and in the Fiscal Consultant's Report were prepared without regard to the time and financial linitations set forth in the Redevelopment Plan for the Prqject Area.

Security and Sources of Payment for the Bonds

The Dissolution Act authorizes the issuance of refunding bonds, including the Bonds, to be secured by a pledge of, and lien on, the Pledged Tax Revenues created by the Indenture. The Dissolution A ct pro.ti des that bonds authorized thereunder to be issued by the Successor Agency wi 11 be secured by a pledge of, and lien on, and will be repaid from moneys deposited from time to time in the Redevelopment Property Tax Trust Fund for the Successor Agency established and held by the County Auditor-Controller (the "Redevelopment Property Tax Trust Fund"), and that property tax revenues pledged to any bonds authorized under the Dissolution Act, such as the Bonds, are taxes allocated to the Successor Agency pursuant to the prcwisions of the Redevelopment Law and the State Constitution which pro.tided for the allocation of tax increment revenues underthe Redevelopment Law.

The Dissolution Act further pro.tides that any bonds authorized thereunder to be issued by the Successor Agency will be considered indebtedness incurred by the dissolved Predecessor Agency, with the same lien priority and legal effect as if the bonds had been issued prior to the effective date of ABX 1 26, in full confornity with the applicable prcwision of the Redevelopment Law that existed prior to that date, and will be included in the Successor Agency's Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule. See "SECURITY AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS - Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule."

Taxes levied on the property within the Prqject Area on that portion of the taxable valuation ewer and alx:we the taxable valuation of the applicable base year property tax roll with respect to the various territories within the Prqject Area, to the extent they constitute Pledged Tax Revenues, as described herein, will be deposited in the Redevelopment Property Tax Trust Fund for transfer by the Santa Barbara County Auditor-Controller (the "County Auditor-Controller") to the Successor Agency's Redevelopment Obligation Retirement Fund on January 2 and June 1 of each year to the extent required for payments listed in the Successor Agency's Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule in accordance with the requirements of the Dissolution Act. See "SECURITY AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS - Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule." Monies deposited by the County Auditor­Controller into the Successor Agency's Redevelopment Obligation Retirement Fund will be transferred

Reserve Fund

To secure the payment of the principal of and interest on the Bonds a Reserve Fund is established in the Indenture in an amount equal to the Reserve Requirement.

The initial Reserve Requirement is $365,525.00. The Reserve Requirement with respect to the Bonds will initially be satisfied b,I the deposit into the Reserve Fund of a municipal bond debt service reserve insurance policy (the "Reserve Policy") issued b,I Assured Guaranty Municipal Corp. ("ACM").

Redevelopment Law that existed prior to that date, and will be included in the Successor Agency's Recognized Obligation Payrrent Schedules.

The Dissolution Act further pr0.tides that bonds authorized thereunder to be issued b,I the Successor Agency will be secured b,I a pledge of, and lien on, and will be repaid from moneys deposited from tirre totirre in the Redeveloprrent Property Tax Trust Fund, and that property tax revenues pledged to any bonds authorized to be issued b,I the Successor Agency under the Dissolution Act, including the Bonds, are taxes allocated to the Successor Agency pursuant to subdivision (b) of Section 33670 of the Redevelopment Law and Section 16 of Article XVI of the State Constitution.

Pursuant to subdivision (b) of Section 33670 of the Redeveloprrent Law and Section 16 of Article XVI of the State Constitution and as pr0.tided in a Redeveloprrent Plan, taxes levied upon taxable property in the Prqject Area each year b,I or for the benefit of the State, any city, county, city and county, district, or other public corporation (herein sornetirres collectively called "taxing agencies") after the effective date of the ordinance appr0.ting such Redeveloprrent Plan, or the respective effective dates of ordinances appr0.ting arrendrrents to the Redevelopment Plan that added territory to the applicable Prqj ect Area are to be divided as fol I o,vs:

(a) To Taxing Agencies: That portion of the taxes which would be produced b,I the rate upon which the tax is levied each year b,I or for each of the taxing agencies upon the total sum of the assessed value of the taxable property in the applicable prqject area as sho,vn upon the assessrrent roll used in connection with the taxation of such property b,I such taxing agency last equalized prior to the effective date of the ordinance adopting the applicable Redevelopment Plan, or the respective effective dates of ordinances appr0.ting arnendrrents to the R edevel oprrent Pl an that added territory to the appl i cable prqj ect area (each, a "base year valuation"), will be allocated to, and when collected will be paid into, the funds of the respective taxing agencies as taxes b,I or for the taxing agencies on all other property are paid; and

(b) To the Predecessor Agency;Successor Agency: Except for that portion of the taxes in excess of the amount identified in (a) abOJe that is attributable to a tax rate levied b,I a taxing agency forthe purpose of producing revenues in an amount sufficientto make annual repayrrents of the principal of, and the interest on, any bonded indebtedness appr0.ted b,I the voters of the taxing agency on or after January 1, 1989 for the acquisition or impr0.terrent of real property, which portion shall be allocated to, and when collected shall be paid into, the fund of that taxing agency, that portion of the levied taxes each year follo,ving the Delivery Date, when collected will be paid into a special fund of the Successor Agency. Section 34172 of the Dissolution Act pro.tides that, for purposes of Section 16 of Article XVI of the State Constitution, the Redeveloprrent Property Tax Trust Fund shall be deemed to be a special fund of the Successor Agency to pay the debt service on indebtedness incurred b,I the Predecessor Agency or the Successor Agency to finance or refinance the redeveloprrent prqjects of the Predecessor Agency.

SECURITY AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS

Background

Prior to the enactrrent of the Dissolution Act, the Redeveloprrent LiM' authorized the financing of redeveloprrent prqjects through the use of tax increrrent revenues. This rrethod pro.tided that the taxable valuation of the property within a redeveloprrent prqject area on the property tax roll last equalized prior to the effective date of the ordinance which adopts the redevelopment plan becomes the base year valuation. Assuming the taxable valuation never dropped belcw the base year level, the taxing agencies receiving property taxes thereafter would receive only that portion of the taxes produced b,I applying then current tax rates to the base year valuation; the redeveloprrent agency was allocated the remaining portion of property taxes (i.e., the portion rreasured b,I applying then current tax rates to the increase in valuation ewer the base year valuation). Such "increrrental tax revenues" allocated to a redevelopment agency were authorized to be pledged to the payrrent of redeveloprrent agency obligations, including the Refunded Bonds.

The Dissolution Act

The Dissolution Act requires the County Auditor-Controller to deternine the amount of property taxes that would have been al I ocated to the Predecessor Agency ( pursuantto subdivision ( b) of Section 16 of Article XVI of the State Constitution) had the Predecessor Agency not been dissolved pursuant to the operation of AB xl 26, using current assessed values on the last equalized roll on August 20, and to deposit that amount in the Redeveloprrent Property Tax Trust Fund for the Successor Agency established and held b,I the County Auditor-Controller pursuanttothe Dissolution Act. The Dissolution Act pro.tides that any bonds authorized thereunder to be issued b,I the Successor Agency wi 11 be considered indebtedness incurred b,I the dissolved Predecessor Agency, with the sarre legal effect as if the bonds had been issued prior to effective date of AB xl 26, in full conformity with the applicable prcwision of the Redevelopment Law that existed prior to that date, and will be included in the Successor Agency's Recognized Obligation Payrrent Schedule.

The Dissolution Act further pro.tides that bonds authorized thereunder to be issued b,I the Successor Agency will be secured b,I a pledge of, and lien on, and will be repaid from moneys deposited from tirre to tirre in the Redeveloprrent Property Tax Trust Fund, and that tax revenues pledged to any bonds authorized to be issued b,I the Successor Agency under the Dissolution Act, including the Bonds, are taxes allocated to the Successor Agency pursuant to subdivision (b) of Section 33670 of the Redevelopment LiM' and Section 16 of Article XVI of the State Constitution.

Security and Sources of Payment for the Bonds

The Bands shal I be equally secured b,I a pl edge of, security interest in and a first and exclusive lien on all of the Pledged Tax Revenues, whether held in the Redevelopment Property Tax Trust Fund or b,I the Successor Agency or the Trustee, and a first and exclusive pledge of, security interest in and lien upon all of the moneys in the Revenue Fund (including the Interest Account, the Principal Account, the Sinking Account and the Redemption Account and all subaccounts in the foregoing) and in the Reserve Fund to the Trustee for the benefit of the applicable owners of the Outstanding Bonds. The principal of and interest or redemption prenium (if any) on the Bonds shall be payable from Pledged Tax Revenues. In addition, pursuant to Health and Safety Code section 34177.S(g), the Bonds shall be specifically secured b,I a pledge of, and lien on, and shall be repaid from moneys deposited from tirre to tirre in the Redevelopment Property Tax Trust Fund. Under the Health and Safety Code the County administrative fee is not deposited into the R edevel oprrent Property Tax Trust Fund.

"Pledged Tax Revenues" means (a) means that portion of taxes levied (including all payments, reirrbursements and sul:wentions, if any, specifically attributable to ad valorem taxes lost b,I reason of business inventory tax or other exemptions and tax rate linitations) upon taxable property in the Redevelopment Prqject Area which is allocated to and paid into a special fund of the Successor Agency pursuant to Article 6 of Chapter 6 of the Health and Safety Code, Section 16 of Article XVI of the Constitution of the State and the Redevelopment Plan, as such portion of taxes may be modified b,I deductions and limitations irrposed pursuant to the Health and Safety Code (including Section 33333.4 thereof), (b) investment earnings, and (c) reimbursements, sul:wentions, including payments to the Successor Agency with respect to personal property generated from property located within the Redevelopment Prqject Area pursuant to Section 16110, et seq., of the Gcwernment Code of the State of California, or other payments made b,I the State to the Successor Agency with respect to any property taxes that would otherwise be due on real or personal property but for an exemption of such property from such taxes. Pledged Tax Revenues shall not include amounts payable b,I the Successor Agency under agreements heretofore entered into pursuant to Section 33401 of the Health and Safety Code, as such Section authorized such agreements prior to January 1, 1995, unless such agreements have been made subordinate to the Bands.

Except for the Pledged Tax Revenues and moneys in the Revenue Fund (including the Interest Account, the Principal Account, the Sinking Account and the Redemption Account and all subaccounts in the foregoing) and the Reserve Fund (and all Accounts therein), no funds or properties of the Successor Agency shall be pledged to, or otherwise liable for, the payment of principai of or interest or redemption prenium (if any) on the Bonds. Notwithstanding anything in the Indenture to the contrary, ho.vever, if Pledged Tax Revenues are insufficient for the deposits required under the Indenture or the payment of the principal of and interest or redemption premium (if any) on the Bonds, the Successor Agency may, but shall not be obligated, to make such deposits or pay such principai of and interest or redemption premium (if any) on the Bonds from other legally available funds.

The Indenture will constitute a contract between the Successor Agency and the Trustee for the benefit of the owners, and the co.tenants and agreements therein set forth to be performed on behalf of the Successor Agency and the Trustee are for the equal and proportionate benefit, security and protection of all owners without preference, priority or distinction as to security or otherwise of any of the Bonds ewer any of the others b,I reason of the number or date thereof or the ti me of sale, execution and delivery thereof, or otherwise for any cause whatsoever, except as expressly pro.tided therein or in the Indenture. Other than the Refunded Bonds, neither the Predecessor Agency nor the Successor Agency have any other bonds outstandi ng.

No Priority; No Additional Parity Bonds; Refunding Bonds; Other Obligations

The Successor Agency co.tenants that it will not issue any Obligations payable, either as to principal or interest, from the Pledged Tax Revenues which have any lien upon the Pledged Tax Revenues on a parity with or superior to the lien under the Indenture for the Bonds; pro.tided, that the Successor Agency may issue and sell refunding bonds payable from Pledged Tax Revenues on a parity with Outstanding Bonds, if (a) annual debt service on such refunding bonds is lo.ver than annual debt service on the Bands being refunded during every year the Bands or such other outstanding bonds of the Successor Agency, as applicable, will be outstanding, (b) the debt service payment dates with respect to such refunding bonds are the same as for the Bands being refunded and ( c) the final maturity of any such refunding bonds does not exceed the final maturity of the Bands being refunded.

Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule

By February P' of each year, the Dissolution Act requires successor agencies to prepare, and submit to the successor agency's oversight board and the Department of Finance for approval, a Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule (the "Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule") pursuant to which enforceable obligations (as defined in the Dissolution Act) of the successor agency are listed, together with the source of funds to be used to pay for each enforceable obligation. As defined in the Di ssol uti on A ct, "enforceabl e obi i gati on" i ncl udes bonds, incl udi ng the required debt service, reserve set -asides, and any other payments required under the indenture or sinilar documents g0.terning the issuance of the outstanding bonds of the Predecessor Agency, as well as other obligations such as loans.judgments or settlements against the former rede.telopment agency, any legally binding and enforceable agreement that is not otherwise void as violating the debt limit or public policy, contracts necessary for the administration or operation of the successor agency, and amounts borrcwed from a lcw and moderate i ncorne housing fund.

Under the Dissolution Act, the categories of sources of payments for enforceable obligations listed on a Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule are the follcwing: (i) bond proceeds, (ii) reserve balances, (iii) administrative cost allcwance, (iv) the Rede.telopment Property Tax Trust Fund (but only to the extent no other funding source is available or when payment from property tax revenues is required b,I an enforceable obligation or otherwise required under the Dissolution Act), or (v) other revenue sources (including rents, concessions, asset sale proceeds, interest earnings, and any other revenues derived from the Predecessor Agency, as appr0.ted b,I the oversight Board). A reserve may be included on the Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule and held b,I a successor agency when required b,I the bond i ndenture or when the next property tax al I ocati on wi 11 be i nsuffi ci ent to pay al I obi i gati ons due underthe pr0.tisions of the bond for the next payment due in the follcwing six-month period.

The Dissolution Act pr0.tides that only those payments listed in the Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule may be made b,I the Successor Agency from the funds specified in the Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule. Each annual Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule may be amended once, pr0.tided that (i) the Successor Agency subnits the amendment to the Department of Finance no later than October 1, (ii) the oversight Board makes a finding that the amendment is necessary for the payment of appr0.ted enforceable obligations during the second half of the Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule period (fromJ anuary 1 toJ une 30, inclusive), and (iii) the Successor Agency may only amend the amount requested for payment of appr0.ted enforceable obligations. The Department of Finance is required to notify the Successor Agency and the County Auditor-Controller as to whether the Successor Agency's requested amendment is approved at least 15 days before theJ anuary 2 property tax distribution.

The Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule must be submitted b,I the Agency, after appr0.tal b,I the oversight Board, to the County Administrative Officer, the County Auditor-Controller, the Department of Finance and the State Controller b,I February 1 in each year. If the Successor Agency does not submit an oversight Board---appr0.ted Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule b,I such deadline, the City will be suqject to a civil penalty equal to $10,000 per day for every day that the schedule is not submitted. Additionally, the Successor Agency's administrative cost allowance will be reduced by 25% for any fiscal year for which the Successor Agency does not subnit an oversight Board-appr0.ted Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule within 10 days of the February 1 deadline. If the Successor Agency fails to subnit a Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule b,I the February 1 deadline, any creditor of the Successor Agency or the department or any affected taxing entity shall have standing to, and may request a writ of mandate to, require the Successor Agency to immediately perform this duty.

Obligation Payment Schedules and irrplications thereof on the Bonds, see "RISK FACTORS -Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule."

With respect to each Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule subnitted b,I the Successor Agency, the Dissolution Act requires the Department of Finance to make a determination of the enforceable obligations and the amounts and funding sources available to pay appr0.ted enforceable obligations no later than April 15. Within five business days of the determination b,I the Department of Finance, the Successor Agency may request additional revie.v b,I the Department of Finance and an opportunity to meet and confer on disputed item,, if any. The Department of Finance will notify the Successor Agency and the County Auditor-Controller as to the outcome of its re..rie.v at least 15 days before theJ une 1 property tax distribution date preceding the applicable Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule period. Additionally, the County Auditor-Controller may revie.v a subnitted Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule and oqject to the inclusion of any item, that are not demonstrated to be enforceable obligations and may oqject to the funding source proposed for any item,, pr0.tided that the County Auditor-Controller must pr0.tide notice of any such oqjections to the Successor Agency, the OVersi ght B oard and the Department of Finance at I east 60 days prior to the next J une 1 property tax distribution date.

The Successor Agency co.tenants that it will duly and punctually pay or cause to be paid the principal of and interest on the Bonds on the date, at the place and in the manner pro.tided in the Bonds, and that it will take all actions required under the Health and Safety Code to include debt service on the Bonds on the Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule, including any amounts required to replenish the Reserve Fund to the full amount of the Reserve Requirement. In addition, the Successor Agency has c0.tenanted in the Indenture to annually prepare and submit a Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule that pr0.tides for the inclusion on the June 1 disbursement from the Redevelopment Property Tax Trust Fund, all scheduled interest and principal payments on the Bonds that are due and payable on February 1 and August 1 of the Bond Year ending on August 1 of the next ensuing calendar year, together with any amount required to replenish the Reserve Fund or to pay amounts due to the Insurer in connection with the Insurance Policy or the Reserve Policy.

applicable, until such time during each Bond Year as the amounts so deposited equal the aggregate amounts required to be transferred to the Trustee in such Bond Year (i) for deposit into the Interest Account, the Principal Account and the Rederrption Account of the Revenue Fund and (ii) for deposit into the Reserve Fund, if necessary. Such deposits shall be in the follcwing order of priority:

First Interest Account. On or before each Interest Payment Date, the Trustee shall set aside from the Revenue Fund and deposit in the Interest Account an amount of money which, together with any money contained therein, is equal to the aggregate amount of the interest becoming due and payable on the Outstanding Bonds on such Interest Payment Date. No deposit need be made into the Interest Account if the amount contained therein is at least equal to the interest to become due and payable on al I Outstanding Bands on the I nterest Payment Dates in such Bond Year. Suqject to the prcwisions of the Indenture, all moneys in the Interest Account will be used and withdriM'n by the Trustee solely for the purpose of paying the interest on the Bonds as it becomes due and payable (including accrued interest on any Bonds redeemed prior to maturity pursuant to the Indenture).

Second Principal Account. On or before each Principal Payment Date, the Trustee shall set aside from the Revenue Fund and deposit in the Principal Account an amount of money which, together with any money contai ned therei n, is equal to the aggregate amount of the principal becoming due and payable on the Outstanding Bands on such Principal Payment Date. No deposit need be made into the Principal Account if the amount contained therein is at least equal to the principal to become due and payable on all Outstanding Bonds on the upconing Principal Payment Date. Suqject to the Indenture, all moneys in the Principal Account will be used and withdriM'n by the Trustee solely for the purpose of paying the principal payments due on the Outstandi ng Bands as they become due and payable.

On or before each Principal Payment Date, the Trustee shall set aside from the Revenue Fund and deposit in the Sinking Account an amount of money equal to the Sinking Account Installment, if any, payable on the Sinking Account Payment Date in such Bond Year. The Trustee shall use moneys in the SinkingAccountto redeem Bonds pursuanttothe Indenture.

If there shall be insufficient money in the Revenue Fund to make in full all such principal payments and Sinking Account payments required to be made in such BondY ear, then the money available in the Revenue Fund shall be applied pro rata with respect to such principal payments and Sinking Account payments in the proportion that all such principal payments and Sinking Account Payments bear to each other.

Third Reserve Fund. Suqject to the Indenture, all money in the Reserve Fund or draws on a Qualified Reserve Fund Credit Instrument will be used and withdriM'n by the Trustee solely for the purpose of (i) making transfers to the related Interest Account, the Principal Account and the Sinking Account, in such order of priority, in the event of any deficiency at any time in any of such Accounts or (ii) for the reti rement of al I the B ands then Outstanding.

The Reserve Requirerrent may be satisfied b,I crediting to the Reserve Fund moneys or a Qualified Reserve Fund Credit lnstrurrent or any combination thereof, which in the aggregate make funds available in the Reserve Fund in an amount equal to the applicable Reserve Requirerrent. Upon deposit of such Qualified Reserve Fund Credit I nstrurrent, the Trustee shall transfer any excess amounts then on deposit in the Reserve Fund in excess of the Reserve Requirerrent into a segregated account of the Bond Fund, which monies shall be applied upon written direction of the Successor Agency either (i) to the payrrentwithin one year of the date of transfer of capital expenditures of the Successor Agency pernitted b,I law, or (ii) to the redemption of B ands on the earl i est succeedi ng date on which such rederrpti on is perni tted hereb,I, and pending such application shall be held either not invested in investrrent property (as defined in section 148(b) of the Code), or invested in such property to produce a yield that is not in excess of the yield on the Bonds; pro.tided, hONeJer, that the Successor Agency may b,I written direction to the Trustee cause an alternative use of such amounts if the Successor Agency shall first have obtained a written opinion of nationally recognized bond counsel substantially to the effect that such alternative use will not adversely affect the exclusion pursuant to section 103 of the Code of interest on the Bands from the gross i ncorre of the cwners thereof for federal income tax purposes. The Reserve Policy is a Qualified Reserve Fund Credit I nstrurrent and is issued in an amountto satisfy the Reserve Requirerrent as of the date of issuance of the Bonds.

In any case where the Reserve Fund is funded with a combination of cash and a Qualified Reserve Fund Credit I nstrurrent, the Trustee shall deplete all cash balances before drawing on the Qualified Reserve Fund Credit lnstrurrent. With regard to replenishrrent, any available moneys pro.tided b,I the Successor Agency shall be used first to reinstate the Qualified Reserve Fund Credit I nstrurrent and second, to replenish the cash in the Reserve Fund. If the Qualified Reserve Fund Credit lnstrurrent is drawn upon, the Successor Agency shall make payrrent of interest on amounts advanced under the Qualified Reserve Fund Credit lnstrurrent after making any payrrents pursuant to this subsection. If a Qualified Reserve Fund Credit lnstrurrent prcwider is dcwngraded for any reason, there shal I be no obi i gati on to replace or secure the Qual i fi ed Reserve Fund Credit I nstrurrent.

The Trustee will value the balance in the Reserve Fund on each August 2, comrrencing August 2, 2018. If the balance in an Account in the Reserve Fund is less than the Reserve R equi rerrent, the Trustee shal I i ndi cate the amount of such deficiency in a W ri tten Request to the Successor Agency. U pon receipt of such W ri tten Request, the Successor Agency shal I imrrediately take all necessary action to cure such deficiency in such Account, including using best efforts to place the amount of such deficiency on a Recognized Obligation Payrrent Schedule. No transfers or deposits need be made to the Reserve Fund so long as there is on deposittherei n a sum at I east equal to the Reserve Requi rerrent.

Redemption Account. The Successor Agency will deliver or cause to be delivered funds to the Trustee for deposit in the Redemption Account an amount required to pay the principal of, interest and premium, if any, on the Bonds (other than Bonds redeerred from Sinking Account Payrrents) to be redeerred on such date. Suqject to the Indenture, all moneys in the Redemption Account will be used and withdriM'n b,I the Trustee solely for the purpose of paying the principal of and interest or redemption premium (if any) on the Bonds to be redeerred on the date set for such rederrpti on.

A Surplus Fund is established under the Indenture. Follo.ving the deposits described abcwe, the Trustee will deposit any remaining Pledged Tax Revenues into the Surplus Fund. Follo.ving such deposit, the Trustee will transfer any Pledged Tax Revenues to the Successor Agency for the payrrent of any enforceable obligations of the Successor Agency, or, if no such

E Ii mi nation of Housing Set-Aside

Pursuant to Sections 33334.2 and 33334.3 of the Redevelopment LiM', rede.telopment agencies were required to set aside not less than twenty percent of all tax increrrent revenues allocated to redevelopment agencies from rede.telopment prqject areas adopted after December 31, 1976, in a ION­and moderate--i ncome housing fund to be expended for authorized housing purp:ises. Amounts on dep:isit in the ION-and moderate-income housing fund could be applied to pay debt service on bonds, loans, or acwances of rede.tel oprrent agencies to fi nance I ON-and moderate--i ncome housing prqj ects.

The Dissolution Act elininated the requirerrent that twenty percent of tax increrrent revenue be set aside and used exclusively for purp:ises of pr0.tiding ION and moderate income housing. The Bonds are payable from amounts of tax increrrent revenue that prior to the Dissolution Act were required to be set aside for I ON and moderate i ncorre housing.

The County Auditor-Controller is responsible for establishing County fiscal and internal control policies and procedures; adninistering the County payroll; conducting audits and fraud investigations; monitoring social services contracts; perforning mandated property tax functions; disbursing warrants to vendors, child support recipients, judgrrent and damages to claimants; and managing the County's enterprise financial and payrol I systems.

The Dissolution Act assigns county auditors nurrerous responsibilities, including the responsi bi I ity to dep:isit tax i ncrerrent revenues attributable to each successor agency into a Redevelopment Property Tax Trust Fund held in the county treasury in the narre of each successor agency. Pursuant to the Dissolution Act, county auditors disburse funds from each Rede.telopment Property Tax Trust Fund twice annually, on January 2 andJ une 1. Such amounts include payrrents to affected taxing entities, payrrents that are required to be paid from tax increrrent as appr0.ted on a Recognized Obligation Payrrent Schedule, and various administrative fees and allONances. Remaining Redevelopment Property Tax Trust Fund balances are distributed to affected taxing entities under a prescribed rrethod that accounts for pass-through payrrents. County auditors are also responsible for distributing other moneys received from successor agencies (from sale of assets etc.) to the affected taxing entities.

Statutory Pass-Through Payments

The Redeveloprrent Plan was established b,I the apprcwal of Ordinance No. 85-263 on December 19, 1985. The Predecessor Agency arrended the Redeveloprrent Plan on Ncwember 13, 2007 pursuant to Ordinance No. 2007-388. As a result of such arrendrrent, the Successor Agency is required to make payrrents (the "Statutory Pass-Through Payrrents") under Section 34183(a)(l) of the Health and Safety Code (the "Tax Sharing Statute"). Payrrents pursuant to the Tax Sharing Statute are inapplicable if the Successor Agency and an affected taxing entity have a tax sharing agreerrent which gcwerns tax sharing in connection with an arrendrrent. The Successor Agency has not entered into any such tax sharing agreerrents.

The Tax Sharing Statute set forth a requirerrent for payrrents of tax increrrent revenues to be made in prescribed amounts to taxing entities in the event certain arrendrrents are made to a prqject area, such as arrendrrents to a redevelopment plan to extend the tirre during which a redeveloprrent agency may incur debt with respect to a prqject area. Sinilar prcwisions apply to arrendrrents that add territory to a prqj ect area, arnendrrents to i ncrease the number of dol I ars which may be al I ocated to a redevelopment agency, or arnendrrents which extend the tirre during which a redevelopment plan is effective where the redevelopment plan being amended contains the prcwisions required b,I subdivision (b) of Section 33670 of the Health and Safety Code. In general, the amounts to be paid pursuant to Tax Sharing Statute are as fol Io.vs:

(a) comrrencing in the first fiscal year after territory is added or one or more of the limitations has been reached, as applicable, an amount equal to 25% of tax increrrent revenues generated b,I the i ncrerrental increase of the current year assessed valuation cwerthe assessed valuation in the fiscal year that the limitation had been reached, after the amount required to be deposited in the lo.v and moderate i ncorne housi ng fund has been deducted;

(b) in addition to amounts payable as described in (a) alx:we, comrrencing in the 11th fiscal year after territory is added or the limitation has been reached, as applicable, an amount equal to 21% of tax i ncrerrent revenues generated b,I the i ncrerrental increase of the current year assessed valuation ewer the assessed valuation in the preceding (10th) fiscal year that the linitation had been reached, after the amount required to be deposited i n the I ON and moderate i ncorre housi ng fund has been deducted; and

(c) in addition to amounts payable as described in (a) and (b) alx:we, comrrencing in the 31st fiscal year after territory is added or the linitation has been reached, as applicable, an amount equal to 14% of tax i ncrerrent revenues generated b,I the i ncrerrental increase of the current year assessed valuation ewer the assessed valuation in the preceding (30th) fiscal year that the limitation had been reached, after the amount required to be deposited in the I ON and moderate i ncorne housing fund has been deducted.

The Dissolution Act eliminated the requirerrent under the Redeveloprrent LiM' that redevelopment agencies set aside not less than twenty percent of al I tax i ncrerrent revenues al located to the redeveloprrent agencies from redeveloprrent prqjects in a ION and moderate incorre housing fund to be expended only on authorized housing purposes. See "SECURITY AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS- Elimination of Housing Set-Aside" herein. Notwithstanding the elinination of the ION to moderate incorre housing set aside requirerrent, the Dissolution Act requires that the amount that would have been set aside for deposit in a ION and moderate income housing fund prior to the enactrrent of the Dissolution Act must still be deducted when calculating the amount of Statutory Pass-Through Payrrents payable b,I successor agencies.

The Dissolution Act establishes procedures whereb,I the Successor Agency may make Statutory Pass-Through Payrrents subordinate to the payrrent of debt service on the Bonds. The Successor Agency has not satisfied the requirements of the Dissolution Act to subordinate the Statutory Pass-Through Payments to the payment of debt service on the Bonds.

The Dissolution Act also required that the calculation and payrrent of tax sharing amounts be taken ewer b,I the County Auditor-Controller. Since February, 2012, the tax sharing obligations outlined alx:we have been adni nistered b,I the County Auditor-Controller's office.

General

THE SUCCESSOR AGENCY TO THE GUADALUPE COMMUNITY REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY

The Predecessor Agency was established b,I the City Council of the City with the adoption of Ordinance No. 85-246 on February 4, 1985 as a public body, corporate and politic, existing under and b,I virtue of the Redeveloprrent LiM'. On June 29, 2011, AB xl 26 was enacted as Chapter 5, Statutes of 2011, together with a companion bill, AB xl 27. AB xl 26 pro.tided for the dissolution of all redevelopment agencies, but also permitted redeveloprrent agencies to avoid such dissolution b,I the payrrent of certain amounts. A lawsuit was brought in the California Suprerre Court, California Redeveloprrent Association, et al., v. Matosantos, et al., 53 Cal. 4th 231 (Cal. 2011), challenging the constitutionality of AB xl 26 and AB xl 27. In its December 29, 2011 decision, the California Suprerre Court largely upheld AB xl 26, invalidated AB xl 27, and held that AB xl 26 may be severed from AB xl 27 and enforced independently. As a result of AB xl 26 and the decision of the California Suprerre Court in the California Redeveloprrent Association case, as of February 1, 2012, all redeveloprrent agencies in the State were dissolved, including the Predecessor Agency, and successor agencies were designated as successor entities to the forrrer redeveloprrent agencies to expeditiously wind dONn the

affairs of the former redevelopment agencies. The Department of Finance conducted a review of the Successor Agency's documentation and issued its Finding of Completion on March 18, 2013.

The City Council, pursuant to Resolution No. 2012-08, adopted on January 24, 2012, elected to serve as Successor Agency. Subdivision (g) of Section 34173 of the Dissolution Act, added by AB 1484, expressly affirm, that the Successor Agency is a separate public entity from the City, that the two entities shall not merge, and that the liabilities of the Predecessor Agency will not be transferred to the City nor will the assets of the Predecessor Agency become assets of the City.

Members, Officers and Staff

The members of the Successor Agency Board of Directors (the "Board") and the expiration dates of thei rterm, are as fol Io.vs:

Successor Agency Po.vers

Title

Executive Di rector Finance Di rector

Clerk

All po.vers of the Successor Agency are vested in the Board. Pursuant to the Dissolution Act, the Successor Agency is a separate public body from the City and succeeds to the organizational status of the Predecessor Agency but without any legal authority to participate in redevelopment activities, except to complete any work related to an apprcwed enforceable obligation. The Successor Agency is tasked with expeditiously winding dONn the affairs of the Predecessor Agency, pursuant to the procedures and pr0.tisions of the Dissolution Act. Under the Dissolution Act, many Successor Agency actions are suqject to appr0.tal by the oversight Board, as well as review by the Department of Finance. California has strict laws regarding public meetings (kno.vn as the Ralph M. Bro.vnAct) which generally make all Successor Agency and oversight Board meetings open to the public in similar manner as City Council meetings.

Previously, Section 33675 of the Redevelopment Law required the Predecessor Agency to file not later than the first day of October of each year with the County Auditor-Controller a statement of indebtedness certified by the chief fiscal officer of the Predecessor Agency for each redevelopment plan which pr0.tides for the allocation of taxes (i.e., the Redevelopment Plans). The statement of indebtedness was required to contain the date on which the bonds were delivered, the principal amount, term, purposes and interest rate of the bonds and the outstanding balance and amount due on the bonds. Similar information was required to be given for each loan, advance or indebtedness that the Predecessor Agency had incurred or entered into which is payable from tax increment. Section 33675 also pr0.tided that payments of tax increment revenues from the County Audi tor -Control I erto the Predecessor Agency could

not exceed the amounts shown on the Predecessor Agency's statement of indebtedness. The Dissolution Act eliminated this requirement and pr0.tides that, commencing on the date the first Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule is valid thereunder, the Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule supersedes the statement of indebtedness previously required under the Redevelopment LiM', and commencing from such date, the statement of indebtedness will no longer be prepared nor have any effect under the Redevelopment Law. See "SECURITY AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS -Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule."

Redevelopment Plan

Under the Redevelopment Law, the City Council was required to adopt, b,I ordinance, a redevelopment plan for each redevelopment prqject. A redevelopment agency may only undertake those activities within a redevelopment prqject specifically authorized in the adopted redevelopment plan. A redevelopment plan was a legal document, the content of which is largely prescribed in the Redevelopment Law rather than a "plan" in the customary sense of the word. The Redevelopment Plan was appr0.ted b,I Ordinance No. 85-263 adopted b,I the City Council of the City on December 19, 1985 and amended b,I Ordinance No. 2007-388 adopted b,I the City Counci I on N0.tember 13, 2007, and b,I Ordinance 09-398 adopted b,I the City Council on May 26, 2009.

No Plan Limitations

SB 107, which became effective September 22, 2015, amended the Dissolution Act to pr0.tide that the time limits for receiving property tax revenues and the linitation on the amount of property tax revenues that may be received b,I the Predecessor Agency and the Successor Agency set forth in the Redevelopment Plan are not effective for purposes of paying the Successor Agency's enforceable obligations. Accordingly, the projections set forth in this Official Statement and in the Fiscal Consultant's Report were prepared without regard to the time and financial limitations set forth in the Redevelopment Plan for the PrqjectArea.

Prqjected Pledged Tax Revenues for the Prqj ect Area

The follo.ving tables pr0.tide a sumnary of the prqjected taxable valuation and resulting prqjected tax revenues in the Prqject Area for the fiscal years sho.vn based on the Fiscal Consultant's prqjections of tax revenues for the Prqject Area as set forth in the Fiscal Consultant's Report. See APPENDIX H - "FISCAL CONSULTANT'S REPORT" for more detailed information on prqjected tax revenues for the Prqject Area, including an explanation of the assumptions on which such prqjections are based. The first table assumes no inflationary grONth in the tax base and the second table incorporates i nfl ati onary grONth at 2% .

Receipt of prqjected tax revenues in the amounts and at the time prqjected b,I the Successor Agency's Fiscal Consultant depends on the realization of certain assumptions relating to the tax revenues. The prqjections of tax revenues shown in the Fiscal Consultant's Report are based on the assumptions described therein. Based upon the prqjected tax revenues, the Successor Agency expects sufficient funds should be available to the Successor Agency to pay principal of and interest on the Bonds. Although the Successor Agency believes that the assumptions upon which the prqjected tax revenues are based are reasonable, the Successor Agency pr0.tides no assurance that the prqjected tax revenues will be realized. To the extent that the assumptions are not actually realized, the Successor Agency's ability to timely pay principal and interest on the Bonds may be materially adversely affected. See "RI SK FACTORS."

Residential Real Estate Values

In response to the dONn-turn in real estate values state-wide that generally began in fiscal year 2009-10, the Assessors throughout the State re..riewed the values of residential parcels within their counties. In 1978, California voters passed Proposition 8. This constitutional amendment allo.vs a temporary reduction in assessed value when a property suffers a "decline in value." A decline in value occurs when the current market value of a property is I ess than the current assessed value as of the Ii en date. Under the terms of Proposition 8, it is the Assessor's obligation to assess all properties at the lesser of current market value or at the property's base value as adjusted for inflation and for any changes that have occurred to the property si nee it was last purchased.

Properties that have their values reduced to the current market value are annually reviewed b,I the Assessor to deternine the new market value of the property. The value that is enrolled each year is the lesser of the current market value or the property's base adjusted base value. Adjusting the property's val ue to the current market value may entai I a further decrease i n val ue or an increase i n value that is not limited b,I constitutional restriction on annual value increases. Once the property has once again reached its adjusted base value, it may be increased in value only b,I the rate of inflation to a maximum annual rate of two percent as required b,I the Constitution. Residential properties make up approximately 82% of all parcels within the Prqject Area and account for approximately 6836 of the secured value of all properties in the Prqject Area.

Most of the decline in residential value was the result of Proposition 8 revisions of value and a smaller portion of the decline is the result of foreclosures and resale of properties at amounts that were less than the assessed value. The residential market dONnturn created significant residential value losses within the Prqject Areas but have been reccwering. Residential properties within the Prqject Areas are no.v at their highest historical value. Reccwery of values reduced under Proposition 8 are partially responsible for the increases in value ewer the past three years but this value increase was augmented b,I the sale of homes at values much greater than the property's prior assessed values.

In addition, the order in which the follCMing inforrration is presented is not intended to reflect the relative i rnportance of any such risks.

The various legal opinions to be delivered concurrently with the issuance of the Bonds will be qualified as to the enforceability of the various legal instrurrents b,l limitations imp:ised b,I State and federal laws, rulings and decisions affecting remedies, and b,I bankruptcy, reorganization or other laws of general application affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights, including equitable princi pies.

Reduction in Taxable Value

Pledged Tax Revenues available to pay principal and interest on the Bonds are deternined b,I the amount of increrrental taxable value in the Prqject Area and the current rate or rates at which property in the Prqject Area is taxed. The reduction of taxable values of property in the Prqject Area caused b,I economic factors beyond the Successor Agency's control, such as relocation out of the Prqject Area b,I one or more major property o.vners, sale of property to a non-profit corporation exempt from property taxation, or the complete or partial destruction of such property caused b,I, among other eventualities, earthquake or other natural disaster, could cause a reduction in the Pledged Tax Revenues that pro.tide for the repayrrent of and security for the Bonds. Such reduction of Pledged Tax Revenues could have an adverse effect on the Successor Agency's ability to make timely payments of principal of and interest on the Bonds.

As described in greater detail under the heading "PROPERTY TAXATION IN CALIFORNIA -Article XIIIA of the State Constitution," Article XIIIA pro.tides that the full cash value base of real property used in deternining taxable value may be adjusted from year to year to reflect the inflation rate, not to exceed a two percent increase for any given year, or rray be reduced to reflect a reduction in the consurrer price index, comparable I ocal data or any reduction in the event of declining property value caused b,I damage, destruction or other factors (as described abcwe). Such measure is computed on a calendar year basis. Any resulting reduction in the full cash value base ewer the term of the Bonds could reduce Pledged Tax Revenues available to pay principal and interest on the Bonds.

In addition to the other limitations on, and required application under the Dissolution Act of Pledged Tax Revenues on dep:isit in the Redevelopment Property Tax Trust Fund, described herein under the heading "RISK FACTORS," the State electorate or Legislature could adopt a constitutional or legislative property tax reduction with the effect of reducing Pledged Tax Revenues allocated to the Redevelopment Property Tax Trust Fund and available to the Successor Agency. Although the federal and State Constitutions include clauses generally prohibiting the Legislature's impairment of contracts, there are also recognized exceptions to these prohibitions. There is no assurance that the State electorate or Legislature will not at sorre future tirre apprcwe additional limitations that could reduce the Pledged Tax Revenues and ad.tersely affect the source of repayrrent and security of the Bands.

Limited Po.vers and Resources

The Successor Agency was created pursuant to the Dissolution Act to wind dONn the affairs of the Predecessor Agency. The Successor Agency's powers are limited to those granted under the Dissolution Act. The Successor Agency does not have the po.ver to levy property taxes nor does it have the po.ver to participate in redevelopment activities, except as pro.tided in the Dissolution Act. Many actions b,I the Successor Agency are suqject to the revie.v or apprcwal of the oversight Board and the Department of Finance, and, in some cases, the State Control I er.

Prior to the Dissolution Act, former redevelopment agencies had the ability to retain funds on hand, accumulated from prior years that were available for use to ccwer short-term cash flo.v deficits. In the event of a delay in the receipt of tax increment in any given year, the former redevelopment agency had the option to use such accumulated funds to make payments on bonds when due. Under the Dissolution Act, the Successor Agency.just like each successor agency formed underthe Dissolution Act, is required to obtain prior apprcwal from its oversight Board, and the Department of Finance, in order to pay an enforceable obi i gati on from a source of funds that is different than the one i den ti fi ed on the R OPS. Except for the Pledged Tax Revenues, the Successor Agency has no alternative resources available to make payments on enforceable obligations if there is a delay with respect to scheduled Redevelopment Property Tax Trust Fund disbursements or if the amount from Redevelopment Property Tax Trust Fund disbursements is not sufficient for the requi red payment of the enforceable obi i gati ons.

Risks to Real Estate Market

The Successor Agency's ability to make payments on the Bonds will be dependent upon the economic strength of the Prqject Area. The general econOITiy' of the Prqject Area will be suqject to all of the risks generally associated with urban real estate markets. Real estate prices and development may be ad.tersely affected b,I changes in general econonic conditions, fluctuations in the real estate market and interest rates, unexpected increases in development costs and b,I other similar factors. Further, real estate development within the Prqject Area could be ad.tersely affected b,11 imitations of infrastructure or future gcwernmental policies, including gcwernmental policies to restrict or control development. In addition, if there is a decline in the general econoITTy' of the Prqject Area, the o.vners of property within such Prqject Area may be less able or less willing to make timely payments of property taxes or may petition for reduced assessed valuation causing a delay or interruption in the receipt of Pledged Tax Revenues b,I the Successor Agency from the Prqject Area. In addition, the insolvency or bankruptcy of one or more large o.vners of property within the PrqjectArea could delay or impairthe receipt of Pledged Tax Revenues b,I the Successor Agency.

Reduction in Inflationary Rate

As described in greater detail belo.v, Article XI I IA of the State Constitution pro.tides thatthe full cash value of real property used in deternining taxable value may be acjjusted from year to year to reflect the inflationary rate, not to exceed a 2% increase for any given year, or may be reduced to reflect a reduction in the consumer price index or comparable local data. Such measure is computed on a calendar year basis. BecauseArticleX I I IA limits inflationary assessed value acjjustments to the lesser of the actual inflationary rate or 2%, there have been years in which the assessed values were acjjusted b,I actual inflationary rates, which were less than 2%. The Successor Agency is unable to predict if any acjjustments to the full cash value of real property within the Prqject Area, whether an increase or a reduction, will be realized in the future.

Le.;y and Collection ofTaxes

The Successor Agency has no independent po.ver to I evy or col I ect property taxes. Any reduction in the tax rate or the implementation of any constitutional or legislative property tax decrease could reduce the Pledged Tax Revenues, and accordingly, could have an ad.terse impact on the security for and the abi Ii ty of the Successor Agency to repay the Bands.

Likewise, delinquencies in the payment of property taxes b,I the cwners of land in the Prqject Area, and the impact of bankruptcy proceedings on the ability of taxing agencies to collect property taxes, could have an adverse effect on the Successor Agency's ability to make timely payments on the Bonds. The County has adopted the Teeter Plan. Under the Teeter Plan, the County allocates to the Successor Agency 100 percent of its proportionate share of property taxes when collected within the Prqject Area, regardless of deli nquenci es. N otwi thstandi ng the foregoing, the Board of Supervisors of the County may discontinue the Teeter Plan at any time and there is no assurance that the County will continue to maintain the Teeter Plan. See "PROPERTY TAXATION IN CALIFORNIA-Property Tax Collection Procedures­Teeter Plan."

Any reduction in Pledged Tax Revenues, whether for any of the reasons stated al:x::we or any other reasons, could have an adverse effect on the Successor Agency's ability to pay the principal of and interest on the Bands.

Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule

The Dissolution Act pro.tides that, commencing on the date that the first Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule is valid thereunder, only those obligations listed in the Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule may be paid b,I the Successor Agency from the funds specified in the Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule. By February P' of each year, the Dissolution Act requires successor agencies to prepare and approve, and submit to the successor agency's oversight board and the Department of Finance for apprcwal, a Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule pursuant to which enforceable obligations of the successor agency are listed, together with the source of funds to be used to pay for each enforceable obligation. Pledged Tax Revenues will not be distributed from the Redevelopment Property Tax Trust Fund b,I the County Auditor-Controller to the Successor Agency's Redevelopment Obligation Retirement Fund without a duly apprcwed and effective Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule. See"SECURITY AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS­Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule" and "PROPERTY TAXATION IN CALIFORNIA - Property Tax Collection Procedures- Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule." If the Successor Agency was to fail to file a Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule with respect to a period, the availability of Pledged Tax Revenues to the Successor Agency could be ad.tersely affected for such period.

If a successor agency fails to submit to the Department of Finance an cwersight board-apprcwed Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule complying with the prcwisions of the Dissolution Act within five business days of the date upon which the Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule is to be used to deterni ne the amount of property tax al I ocati ons, the Department of Finance may determine if any amount should be withheld b,I the applicable county auditor-controller for payments for enforceable obligations from distribution to taxing entities pursuant to clause (iv) in the follcwing paragraph, pending apprcwal of a Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule. Upon notice pro.tided b,I the Department of Finance to the county auditor-controller of an amount to be withheld from allocations to taxing entities, the county auditor -control I er must di stri bute to taxi ng entities any monies i n the Redevelopment Property Tax Trust Fund in excess of the withholding amount set forth in the notice, and the county auditor­controller must distribute withheld funds to the successor agency only in accordance with a Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule when and as apprcwed b,I the Department of Finance.

Typically, under the Redevelopment Property Tax Trust Fund distribution prcwisions of the Dissolution Act, the county auditor-controller is to distribute funds for each six--rmnth period in the follo.ving order specified in Section 34183 of the Dissolution Act: (i) first, suqject to certain acjjustments for subordinations to the extent permitted under the Dissolution Act and no later than eachJ anuary 2 and June 1, to each local Successor Agency and school entity, to the extent applicable, amounts required for pass-through payments such entity would have received under prcwisions of the Redevelopment LiM', as those prcwisions read on January 1, 2011, including pursuant to the Statutory Pass-Through Amounts; (ii) second, on eachJ anuary 2 andJ une 1, to the Successor Agency for payments listed in its Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule, with debt service payments scheduled to be made for tax allocation bonds having the highest priority ewer payments scheduled for other debts and obligations listed on the Recognized Obi igation Payment Schedule; (iii) third, on each January 2 and June 1, to the Successor Agency for the administrative cost allo.vance, as defined in the Dissolution Act; and (iv) fourth, on each January 2 andJ une 1, to taxing entities any moneys remaining in the Redevelopment Property Tax Trust Fund after the payments and transfers authorized by clauses (i) through (iii), in an amount proportionate to such taxing entity's share of property tax revenues in the tax rate area in that fiscal year (without giving effect to any pass-through obi i gati ons that were established under the Redevelopment Law).

If the successor agency does not submit an oversight Board--apprcwed Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule within five business days of the date upon which the Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule is to be used to deternine the amount of property tax allocations and the Department of Finance does not pro.tide a notice to the county auditor-controller to withhold funds from distribution to taxing entities, amounts in the Redevelopment Property Tax Trust Fund for such six--rmnth period would be distributed to taxing entities pursuant to clause (iv) abcwe. Ho.vever, the Successor Agency has co.tenanted to take all actions required underthe Dissolution Act to include scheduled debt service on the Bonds as well as any amount required under the Indenture to replenish the Reserve Fund, in the Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule to enable the County Auditor-Controller to distribute from the Redevelopment Property Tax Trust Fund to the Successor Agency's Redevelopment Obligation Retirement Fund as required under the I ndenture.

AB 1484 also added mw prcwisions to the Dissolution Act implementing certain penalties in the event that the Successor Agency does not timely submit a Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule by the deadline specified in the Dissolution Act. Specifically, a Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule must be subnitted by the Successor Agency, after apprcwal by the oversight Board, to the County Adninistrative Officer, the County Auditor-Controller, the Department of Finance and the State Controller no later than each February 1, commencing February 1, 2016 with respect to each subsequent fiscal year. If the Successor Agency does not subnit an oversight Board apprcwed Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule by such deadline, the City will be suqject to a civil penalty equal to $10,000 per day for every day the schedule is not submitted to the Department of Finance. Additionally, the Successor Agency's administrative cost allowance is reduced by 25% for any fiscal year for which the Successor Agency does not subnit an oversight Board apprcwed Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule within 10 days of the February 1 deadline. If the Successor Agency fails to submit a Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule by the February 1 deadline, any creditor of the successor agency or the department or any affected taxing entity will have standing to, and may request a writ of mandate to, require the Successor Agency to immediately perform this duty. For additional information regarding procedures under the Dissolution Act relating to late Recognized Obligation Payment Schedules and i mpl i cations thereof on the Bands.

Future Implementation of Dissolution Act

Several successor agencies, cities and other entities have filed judicial actions challenging the legality of various prcwisions of the Dissolution Act. One such challenge is an action filed on August 1,

2012, b,I Syncora Guarantee Inc. and Syncora Capital Assurance Inc. (collectively, "Syncora") against the State, the State Controller, the State Director of Finance, and the Auditor-Controller of San Bernardino County on his o.vn behalf and as the representative of all other County Auditors in the State (Superior Court of the State of California, County of Sacramento, Case No. 34-2012--80001215). Syncora are rnonoline financial guaranty insurers doniciled in the State of New Yark, and as such, pro.tide credit enhancement on bonds issued b,I state and I ocal gcwernments and do not sel I other kinds of insurance such as life, health, or property insurance. Syncora pro.tided bond insurance and other related insurance policies for bonds issued b,I former California redevelopment agencies.

The complaint alleged that the Dissolution Act, and specifically the "Redistribution Prcwisions" thereof (i.e., Health and Safety Code Sections 34172(d), 34174, 34177(d), 34183(a)(4), and 34188) violate the "contract clauses" of the United States and California Constitutions (U.S. Const. art. 1, § 10, cl.1; Cal. Const. art. 1, § 9) because they unconstitutionally impair the contracts among the former redevelopment agencies, bondholders and Syncora. The corrplaint also alleged that the Redistribution Prcwisions violate the "Takings Clauses" of the United States and California Constitutions (U.S. Const. amend. V; Cal Const. art. 1 § 19) because they unconstitutionally take and appropriate bondholders' and Syncora's contractual right to critical security mechanisms without just compensation.

After hearing b,I the Sacramento County Superior Court on May 3, 2013, the Superior Court ruled that Syncora's constitutional claims based on contractual impairment were premature. The Superior Court also held that Syncora's takings claims, to the extent based on the same arguments, were also premature. Pursuant to aJ udgment stipulated to b,I the parties, the Superior Court on October 3, 2013, entered its order disnissing the action. TheJ udgment, ho.vever, pro.tides that Syncora preserves its rights to reassert its challenges to the Dissolution Act in the future. The Successor Agency does not guarantee that any reassertion of challenges b,I Syncora or thatthe final results of any of the judicial actions brought b,I others challenging the Dissolution Act will not result in an outcome that may have a material ad.terse effect on the Successor Agency's ability to timely pay debt service on the Bonds.

Limitations on Remedies

The enforceability of the rights and remedies of the Holders of the Bonds and the Trustee and the obi i gati ans i ncurred b,I the Successor Agency may be suqj ect to the federal Bankruptcy Code and applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or sinilar laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights.

Bankruptcy and Foreclosure

The payment of the property taxes from which Pledged Tax Revenues are derived and the ability of the County to foreclose the lien of a delinquent unpaid tax may be limited b,I bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws generally affecting creditors' rights generally, now or hereafter in effect; equity principles which may Ii nit the specific enforcement under State law of certain remedies; the exercise of the United States of America of the po.vers delegated to it b,I the federal Constitution; and the reasonable and necessary exercise, in certain exceptional situations, of the police po.ver inherent in the scwereignty of the State and its gcwernment bodies in the interest of serving a significant and legitimate public purpose. The various legal opinions to be delivered concurrently with the delivery of the Bonds (including Bond Counsel's approving legal opinion) will be qualified as to the enforceability of the various legal instruments b,I bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, or other similar laws affecting creditors' rights, by the application of equitable principles and by the exercise of judicial discretion in appropriate cases.

Although bankruptcy proceedings would likely not cause the liens to become extinguished, bankruptcy of a property o.vner could result in a delay in prosecuting superior court foreclosure proceedings. Such delay would increase the possibility of delinquent tax installments not being paid in ful I and thereb{ increase the Ii kel i hood of a delay or default in payment of the principal of and interest on the Bonds.

Concentration of Ownership

The risk of reduction in assessed value as a result of factors described herein may generally increase where the assessed value within Prqj ect Area is concentrated among a relatively srnal I number of property o.vners. OWnershi p of property in Prqject Area has a relatively high concentration among the top ten property o.vners, with such top ten property o.vners accounting for 32.22% of the Fiscal Year 2017-18 secured assessed valuation. The largest taxpayer, Apia Inc., accounts for 13.53% of the total secured assessed value within the PrqjectArea Significant reduction in the secured assessed values of the top ten property o.vners could, b{ itself or in corrbination with other factors, have a material ad.terse effect on the Successor Agency's ability to pay debt service on the Bonds as such payments become due and payable. See "THE PROJECT AREA -Top Ten Taxable Property Owners in the PrqjectArea" herein.

Estimated Revenues

In estimating that Pledged Tax Revenues will be sufficient to pay debt service on the Bonds, the Successor Agency has made certain assumptions with regard to present and future assessed valuation in the Prqject Area, future tax rates and percentage of taxes collected. The Successor Agency believes these assumptions to be reasonable, but there is no assurance these assurnpti ons wi 11 be realized and to the extent that the assessed valuation and the tax rates are less than expected, the Pledged Tax Revenues available to pay debt service on the Bonds will be less than those prqjected and such reduced Pledged Tax Revenues may be insufficient to pro.tide forthe payment of principal of, prenium (if any) and interest on the Bonds.

No Validation Proceeding Undertaken

Code of Civil Procedure Section 860 authorizes public agencies to institute a process, otherwise kno.vn as a "validation proceeding," for purposes of deterni ni ng the validity of a resolution or any action taken pursuantthereto. Section 860 authorizes a publ i c agency to i nstitute val i dati on proceedings in cases where another statute authorizes its use. Relevant to the Bonds, Gcwernment Code Section 53511 authorizes a local agency to "bring an action to deternine the validity of its bonds, warrants, contracts, obligations or evidences of indebtedness." Pursuant to Code of Civil Procedure Section 870, a final favorable judgment issued in a validation proceeding shall, notwithstanding any other prcwision of law, be forever binding and conclusive, as to al I matters therein aqj udi cated or which could have been aqjudicated, against all persons: "The judgment shall permanently enjoin the institution b{ any person of any action or proceeding raising any issue as to which the judgment is binding and conclusive."

The Successor Agency has not undertaken or endeavored to undertake any validation proceeding in connection with the issuance of the Bonds. The Successor Agency and Bond Counsel have relied on the prcwisions of AB 1484 authorizing the issuance of the Bonds and specifying the related deadline for any challenge to the Bonds to be brought. Specifically, Section 34177.5(e) of the Dissolution Act pro.tides that notwithstanding any other law, an action to challenge the issuance of bonds (such as the Bonds), the incurrence of indebtedness, the amendment of an enforceable obligation, or the execution of a financing agreement authorized under Section 34177.5, must be brought within 30 days after the date on which the cwersight board apprcwes the resolution of the successor agency apprcwing such financing.

Such challenge period expired with respect to the Bonds and the oversight Board Resolution on October 21, 2015.

It is possible that the definition of Pledged Tax Revenues could be affected b,I changes in law or judicial decisions relating to the dissolution of redevelopment agencies. Any action b,I a court to invalidate prcwisions of the Dissolution Act required for the timely payment of principal of, and interest on, the Bonds could be suqject to issues regarding unconstitutional impairment of contracts and unconstitutional taking without just compensation. The Successor Agency believes that the aforementioned considerations would pro.tide some protections against the ad.terse consequences upon the Successor Agency and the availability of Pledged Tax Revenues for the payment of debt service on the Bonds in the event of successful challenges to the Dissolution Act or portions thereof. Ho.ve..rer, the Successor Agency pro.tides no assurance that any other lawsuit challenging the Dissolution Act or portions thereof will not result in an outcome that may have a detrimental effect on the Successor Agency's ability to timely pay debt service on the Bonds.

Assumptions and Prqjections

To estimate the Pledged Tax Revenues available to pay debt service on the Bonds, the Fiscal Consultant has made certain assurrptions with regard to present and future assessed valuation in the Prqject Area, future tax rates and percentage of taxes collected. The Successor Agency believes these assumptions to be reasonable, but to the extent that the assessed valuation, the tax rates or the percentage of taxes collected are less than such assumptions, the Pledged Tax Revenues available to pay debt service on the Bonds may be less than those prqjected. No assurance can be made that the aggregate ccwerage prqj ecti ons with respect to the Bands wi 11 be met.

Certain statements included or incorporated b,I reference in this Official Statement constitute "forward-I ooki ng statements." Such statements are general ly i denti fi able b,I the terminology used, such as "plan" "prg·ect" "expect" "anticipate" "intend" "belie..re" "estimate" "budget" or other similar

' ' ' ' ' ' ' words. The achievement of certain results or other expectations contained in such forward-looking statements involve kno.vn and unkno.vn risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results, performance or achievements described to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied b,I such forward-looking statements. The Successor Agency does not plan to issue any updates or re..risions to those forward-looking statements if or when its expectations or e..rents, conditions or circumstances on which such statements are based occur. Such forward-I ooki ng statements include, but are not Ii mited to, certain statements contained in the information in "INTRODUCTION," "THE PROJECT AREA," and"TAX REVENUES."

Hazardous Substances

An additional environmental condition that may result in the reduction in the assessed value of property would be the disccwery of a hazardous substance that would Ii nit the beneficial use of taxable property within the Prqject Area In general, the o.vners and operators of property may be required b,I law to remedy conditions of the property relating to releases or threatened releases of hazardous substances. The o.vner or operator may be required to remedy a hazardous substance condition of property whether or not the o.vner or operator has anything to do with creating or handling the hazardous substance. The effect, therefore, should any of the property within the Prqject Area be affected b,I a hazardous substance, could be to reduce the marketability and value of the property b,I the costs of remedying the condition.

Natural Disasters

The value of the property in the Prqject Area in the future can be ad.tersely affected b,I a variety of additional factors, particularly those which may affect infrastructure and other public irnprcwerrents and private irnprcwerrents on property and the continued habitability and enjO{rrent of such private imprcwerrents. Such additional factors include, without limitation, geologic conditions such as earthquakes, topographic conditions such as earth mcwerrents, landslides and floods and climatic conditions such as droughts. In the event that one or more of such conditions occur, such occurrence could cause damages of varying seriousness to the land and imprcwerrents and the value of property in the PrqjectArea could be dininished in the aftermath of such events. A substantial reduction of the value of such properties and could affect the ability or willingness of the property o.vners to pay the property taxes.

The Prqject Area is located in a seismically active region of Southern California In the event of property damage caused b,I an earthquake, the assessed valuation of affected property could be reduced. Such a reduction of assessed valuations could result in a reduction of the Pledged Tax Revenues that secure the Bonds, which in turn could impair the ability of the Successor Agency to make payrrents of pri nci pal of and i nterest on the Bands when due.

Changes in Law

There can be no assurance thatthe State electorate will not at some future tirre adopt initiatives or that the Legislature will not enact legislation that will amend the Dissolution Act, the Redeveloprrent Law or other laws or the Constitution of the State resulting in a reduction of Pledged Tax Revenues, which could have an adverse effect on the Successor Agency's ability to pay debt service on the Bonds and such an effect could be material.

Economic Risk

The Successor Agency's ability to make payrrent on the Bonds will be partially dependent upon the economic strength of the Prqject Area If there is a decline in the general econOITiy' of the Prqject Area, the o.vners of property may be less able or less willing to make tirrely payrrents of property taxes causing a delay or stoppage of Pledged Tax Revenues. Furthermore, general economic declines are likely to result in additional reductions of assessed values. In the event of decreased values, Pledged Tax Revenues may decline even if property o.vners make ti rrely payrrent of property taxes.

Investment Risk

Funds held under the Indenture are required to be invested in Permitted I nvestrrents as pro.tided under the Indenture. See APPENDIX A attached hereto for a summary of the definition of Pernitted lnvestrrents. The funds and accounts of the Successor Agency, into which a portion of the proceeds of the Bonds will be deposited and into which Pledged Tax Revenues are deposited, may be invested b,I the Successor Agency in any investrrent authorized b,I law. All investrrents, including the Permitted I nvestrrents and those authorized b,l law from tirre to tirre for investrrents b,I municipalities, contain a certain degree of risk. Such risks i ncl ude, but are not Ii ni ted to, a I o.ver rate of return than expected and loss or delayed receipt of principal.

Secondary Market

There can be no guarantee that there wi 11 be a secondary market for the Bands, or, if a secondary market exists, that the Bands can be sold for any particular price. Occasi anal ly, because of general

Additionally, prices of issues for which a market is being made will depend upon the then prevailing ci rcum;tances.

PROPERTY TAXATION IN CALIFORNIA

Property Tax Collection Procedures

Classification. In the State, property which is suqject to ad valorem taxes is classified as "secured" or "unsecured." Secured and unsecured properties are entered on separate parts of the assessment rol I mai ntai ned b,I the County assessor. The secured cl assi fi cation i ncl udes property on which any property tax levied b,I a county becomes a lien on that property. A tax levied on unsecured property does not become a lien against the taxed unsecured property, but may become a lien on certain other property o.vned b,I the taxpayer. Every tax which becomes a lien on secured property has priority ewer all other liens on the secured property arising pursuant to State law, regardless of the time of the creation of other Ii ens.

Generally, ad valoremtaxes are collected b,I a county (the "Taxing Authority") for the benefit of the various entities (cities, schools and special districts) that share in the ad valorem tax (each a taxing entity) and successor agencies eligible to receive distributions from the respective Redevelopment Property Tax Trust Fund.

Collections. Secured and unsecured property are entered separately on the assessment rol I maintained b,I the county assessor. The method of collecting delinquent taxes is substantially different for the two classifications of property. The taxing authority has four ways of collecting unsecured personal property taxes: (i) initiating a civil action against the taxpayer, (ii) filing a certificate in the office of the county clerk specifying certain facts in orderto obtain a judgment lien on certain property of the taxpayer, (iii) filing a certificate of delinquency for record in the county recorder's office to obtain a lien on certain property of the taxpayer, and (iv) seizing and selling personal property, imprcwements or possessory interests belonging or assessed to the assessee. The exclusive means of enforcing the payment of delinquent taxes with respect to property on the secured rol I is the sale of the property securing the taxes to the State for the amount of taxes which are delinquent.

Penalty. A 1036 penalty is added to delinquent taxes which have been levied with respect to property on the secured roll. In addition, property on the secured roll on which taxes are delinquent is declared i n default b,I operation of I aw and declaration of the tax col I ector on or about J une 30 of each fiscal year. Such property may thereafter be redeemed b,I payment of the delinquent taxes and a delinquency penalty, plus a redemption penalty of 1.5% per month to the time ofredemption. If taxes are unpaid for a period of five years or more, the property is deeded to the State and then is suqject to sale b,I the county tax collector. A 1036 penalty also applies to delinquent taxes with respect to property on the unsecured roll, and further, an additional penalty of 1.5% per month accrues with respect to such taxes beginning on varying dates related to the tax bi 11 mai Ii ng date.

Delinquencies. The valuation of property is determined as of theJ anuary 1 lien date as equalized in August of each year and equal installments of taxes levied upon secured property become delinquent on the follo.ving December 10 and April 10. Taxes on unsecured property are dueJ anuary 1 and become delinquent August 31. The Successor Agency's tax increments are paid under the Teeter Plan and are consequently not affected b,I tax deli nquenci es.

Teeter Plan. The Board of Supervisors of the County has ack:Jpted the Alternative Method of Distribution of Tax Levies and Collections and of Tax Sale Proceeds (the "Teeter Plan"), as pr0.tided for in Section 4701 et seq. of the California Revenue and Taxation Code. Generally, the Teeter plan pr0.tides for a tax distribution procedure in which secured roll taxes are distributed to taxing agencies within the County on the basis of the tax levy, rather than on the basis of actual tax collections. The County then receives all future delinquent tax payments, penalties and interest. Pursuant to the Teeter Plan, the County establishes a tax losses reserve fund and a tax resources account and each entity levying or entitled to receipt of property taxes in the County rnay draw on the amount of uncollected taxes and assessments credited to that entity's fund, in the same manner as if the amount credited had been collected.

The County is responsible for determining the amount of the tax levy on each parcel which is entered onto the secured real property tax rol I. U pon corrpl eti on of the secured real property tax rol I, the County's Auditor-Controller deternines the total amount of taxes and assessments actually extended on the roll for each fund for which a tax levy has been included, and apportions 100 percent of the tax and assessment levies to that fund's credit. Such moneys rnay thereafter be drawn against b,I the taxing agency in the sarne manner as if the amount credited had been collected. The County determines which moneys in the County treasury (including those credited to tax losses reserve fund) will be available to be drawn on to the extent of the amount of uncol I ected taxes credited to each fund for which a I evy has been included. When amounts are received on the secured tax roll for the current year, or for redemption of tax defaulted property, Teeter Pl an moneys are distributed to the apportioned tax resources accounts.

So long as the Teeter Plan is in place, the Successor Agency is expected to be credited with 100 percent of its annual apportionment of tax increment allocable to the secured roll, regardless of any delinquencies in payment of secured taxes. Ho.vever, the Board of Supervisors of the County rnay discontinue the Teeter Plan at any time and there is no assurance that the County will continue to maintain the Teeter Plan.

Supplemental Assessments. California Revenue and Taxation Code Section 75.70 pro.tides for the supplemental assessment and taxation of property as of the occurrence of a change of o.vnershi p or completion of new construction. Prior to the enactment of this law, the assessment of such changes was pernitted only as of the next tax lien date follo.ving the change, and this delayed the realization of increased property taxes frorn the new assessments for up to 14 months. This statute pr0.tides increased revenue to the Redevelopment Property Tax Trust Fund to the extent that supplemental assessments of new construction or changes of o.vnership occur within the boundaries of redevelopment prqjects subsequent to the January 1 lien date. To the extent such supplemental assessments occur within the PrqjectArea, Pledged Tax Revenues rnay increase.

Property Tax Adninistrative Costs. In 1990, the Legislature enacted SB 2557 (Chapter 466, Statutes of 1990) which allo.vs counties to charge for the cost of assessing, collecting and allocating property tax revenues to local g0.ternment jurisdictions in proportion to the tax-derived revenues allocated to each. SB 1559 (Chapter 697, Statutes of 1992) explicitly includes redevelopment agencies arnong the jurisdictions which are suqject to such charges. In addition, Sections 34182(e) and 34183(a) of the Dissolution Act allo.v administrative costs of the County Auditor-Controller for the cost of administering the pr0.tisions of the Dissolution Act, as well as the foregoing SB 1559 amounts, to be deducted frorn property tax revenues before monies are deposited into the Redevelopment Property Tax Trust Fund. For Fiscal Year 2016-17, the County collection charges were 1.69% of Gross Tax Revenue within the Prqject Area Based on the historical collection charges, the Fiscal Consultant prqjected the charge for Fiscal Year 2017-18 and future years as a percentage of Gross Tax Revenue to remain at 1.69%. For purposes of these prqjections, the Fiscal Consultant assumed that the County will continue to

charge the Agency for property tax adrrinistration and that such charge will increase proportionally with any increases in revenue.

Statutory Pass-Through Amounts. The payrrent of Statutory Pass-Through Amounts results from (i) plan arrendrrents which add territory in existing Prqject Area on or after January 1, 1994 and (ii) from plan arnendrrents which elirrinates one or more I irritations within a redeveloprrent plan (such as the remcwal of the tirre limit on the establishrrent of loans, acwances and indebtedness). The calculation of the amount due affected taxing entities is described in Sections 33607.5 and 33607.7 of the Redevelopment Law. See "SECURITY AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS -Statutory Pass-Through Payrrents" for further information regarding the applicability of the statutory pass-through prcwisions of the Redeveloprrent Law and the Dissolution Act to the PrqjectArea

Recogni:zed Obligation Payrrent Schedule. The Dissolution Act pro.tides that, comrrencing on the date the first Recognized Obi i gation Payrrent Schedule is valid thereunder, only those payrrents Ii sted in the Recognized Obligation Payrrent Schedule may be made b,I the Successor Agency from the funds specified in the Recognized Obligation Payrrent Schedule. The Dissolution Act requires successor agencies annually to prepare and approve, and submit to the Successor Agency's oversight board and the Departrrent of Finance for apprcwal, a Recognized Obligation Payrrent Schedule pursuant to which enforceable obligations (as defined in the Dissolution Act) of the Successor Agency are listed, together with the source of funds to be used to pay for each enforceable obligation. Pledged Tax Revenues will not be distributed from the Redevelopment Property Tax Trust Fund b,I the County Auditor-Controller to the Successor Agency's Redevelopment Obligation Retirement Fund without a duly approved and effective Recognized Obligation Payrrent Schedule obtained in sufficient tirre prior to theJ anuary 2 or June 1 distribution dates, as applicable.

Unitary Property

Assembly Bill ("AB") 2890 (Statutes of 1986, Chapter 1457) pro.tides that, comrrencing with fiscal year 1988--89, assessed value derived from State-assessed unitary property (consisting mostly of operati anal property o.vned b,I uti Ii ty companies) is to be al I ocated county-wide as fol Io.vs: ( i) each tax rate area wi 11 receive that same amount from each assessed uti I ity received in the previous fi seal year unless the applicable county-wide values are insufficient to do so, in which case values will be allocated to each tax rate area on a pro--rata basis; and (ii) if values to be al I ocated are greater than in the previous fiscal year, each tax rate area will receive a pro--rata share of the increase from each assessed utility according to a specified formula Additionally, the lien date on State-assessed property is changed from March 1 to J anuary 1.

AB 454 (Statutes of 1987, Chapter 921) further modifies chapter 1457 regarding the distribution of tax revenues derived from property assessed b,I the State Board of Equalization. Chapter 921 pro.ti des for the consolidation of all State-assessed property, except for regulated railroad property, into a single tax rate area in each county. Chapter 921 further pro.tides for a new rrethod of establishing tax rates on State-assessed property and distribution of property tax revenue derived from State-assessed property to taxingjurisdictions within each county in accordance with a new formula. Railroads will continue to be assessed and revenues allocated to all tax rate areas where railroad property is sited.

ArticleX I I IA of the State Constitution

ArticleX I I IA limits the amount of advaloremtaxes on real property to 1% of "full cash value" of such property, as determined b,I the county assessor. Article X 111 A defines "ful I cash val ue" to rrean "the County Assessor's valuation ofreal property as shown on the 1975-76 tax bill under 'full cash value,' or, thereafter, the appraised value of real property when purchased, newly constructed, or a change in

o.vnership has occurred after the 1975 assessrrent." Furthermore, the "full cash value" of all real property may be increased to reflect the rate of inflation, as sho.vn b,I the consurrer price index, not to exceed ZYo per year, or may be reduced.

ArticleX I I IA has subsequently been arrended to pernit reduction of the "full cash value" base in the event of declining property values caused b,I substantial damage, destruction or other factors, and to pr0.tide that there would be no increase in the "full cash value" base in the event of reconstruction of property damaged or destrO{ed in a disaster and in other special circumstances.

ArticleX I I IA (i) exerrpts from the 1% tax limitation taxes to pay debt service on (a) indebtedness appr0.ted b,I the voters prior to July 1, 1978 or (b) bonded indebtedness for the acquisition or i mpr0.terrent of real property apprcwed on or after July 1, 1978, b,I two-thirds of the votes cast b,I the voters voting on the proposition; (ii) requires a vote of two-thirds of the qualified electorate to impose special taxes, or certain additional ad valorem taxes; and (iii) requires the apprcwal of two-thirds of all rrenibers of the State Legislature to change any State tax laws resulting in increased tax revenues.

The validity of Article XIIIA has been upheld b,I both the California Suprerre Court and the United States Suprerre Court.

In the general election held Ncweniber4, 1986, voters of the State apprcwed two rreasures, Propositions 58 and 60, which further arrended Article XI I IA. Proposition 58 arrended Article XI I IA to pr0.tide that the terms "purchase" and "change of o.vnership," for the purposes of deternining full cash value of property under ArticleX I I IA, do not include the purchase or transfer of (1) real property between spouses and (2) the principal residence and the first $1,000,000 of other property between parents and children. This arrendrrenttoArticleX I I IA may reduce the rate of grONth of local property tax revenues.

Proposition 60 arrended Article XI I IA to pernit the Legislature to allo.v persons ewer the age of 55 who sell their residence and buy or build another of equal or lesser value within two years in the sarre county, to transfer the old residence assessed value to the new residence. As a result of the Legislature's action, the grONth of property tax revenues may decline.

Legislation enacted b,I the Legislature to implerrent Article XI I IA pr0.tides that all taxable property is sho.vn at full assessed value as described abo.te. In conformity with this procedure, all taxable property value included in this Official Staterrent is sho.vn at 10036 of assessed value and all general tax rates reflect the $1 per $100 of taxable value (except as noted). Tax rates for voter-appr0.ted bonded indebtedness and pension liabilities are also applied to 10036 of assessed value.

Appropriations Limitation -ArticleX 111 B

Article XIIIB limits the annual appropriations of the State and its political subdivisions to the level of appropriations for the prior fiscal year, as acjjusted for changes in the cost of living, population and services rendered b,I the gcwernrrent entity. The "base year" for establishing such appropriations limit is the 1978-79 fiscal year, and the limit is to be acjjusted annually to reflect changes in population, consurrer prices and certain increases in the cost of services pr0.tided b,I these public agencies.

Section 33678 of the Redeveloprrent LiM' pro.tides that the allocation of taxes to a redeveloprrent Successor Agency for the purpose of paying principal of, or interest on, loans, advances, or indebtedness shal I not be deerred the recei pt b,I an Successor Agency of proceeds of taxes I evi ed b,I or on behalf of an Successor Agency within the meaning of ArticleX 111 B, nor shall such portion of taxes be deerred receipt of proceeds of taxes b,I, or an appropriation suqject to the limitation of, any other public body within the rreaning or for the purpose of the Constitution and I.M's of the State, including Section 33678 of the

Redevelopment Law. The constitutionality of Section 33678 has been upheld in two California appellate court decisions. On the basis of these decisions, the Successor Agency has not adopted an appropriations limit.

Articles X 111 C and X 111 D of the State Constitution

At the election held on N0.tember 5, 1996, Proposition 218 was passed b,I the voters of California The initiative added Articles XI I IC andX 111 D to the State Constitution. Pr0.tisions in the two articles affect the ability of local gcwernment to raise revenues. The Bonds are secured b,I sources of revenues that are not suqject to linitation b,I Proposition 218. See also"- Prop:isitions 218 and 26" belo.v.

Proposition 87

On Ncwember 8, 1988, the voters of the State apprcwed Proposition 87, which amended Article XVI, Section 16 of the State Constitution to pr0.tide that property tax revenue attributable to the imp:isition of taxes on property within a redevelopment prqject area for the purp:ise of paying debt service on certain bonded indebtedness issued b,I a taxing entity (not the Predecessor Agency or the Successor Agency) and apprcwed b,I the voters of the taxing entity after January 1, 1989will be allocated solely to the payment of such indebtedness and not to redevelopment agencies.

Appeals of Assessed Values

Pursuant to California liM', a property o.vner may apply for a reduction of the property tax assessment for such owner's property by filing a written application, in a form prescribed by the State Board of Equalization, with the appropriate county board of equal i zati on or assessment appeals board.

In the County, a property owner desiring to reduce the assessed value of such owner's property in any one year must submit an application to the County Assessment Appeals Board (the "Appeals Board"). Applications for any tax year must be subnitted b,I September 15 of such tax year. Follo.ving a review of each application by the staff of the County Assessor's Office, the staff makes a recommendation to the Appeals Board on each appl i cation which has not been rejected for incompleteness or untimeliness or withdrawn. The Appeals Board holds a hearing and either reduces the assessment or confirms the assessment. The Appeals Board generally is required to determine the outcome of appeals within two years of each appeal's filing date. Any reduction in the assessment ultimately granted applies only to the year for which application is made and during which the written application is filed. The assessed value increases to its pre,eduction level for fiscal years follo.ving the year for which the reduction application is filed. Ho.vever, if the taxpayer establishes through proof of comparable values that the property continues to be cwervalued (kno.vn as "ongoing hardship"), the Assessor has the po.ver to grant a reduction not only for the year for which application was originally made, but also for the then current year as well. Appeals for reduction in the "base year" value of an assessment, which generally must be made within three years of the date of change in o.vnership or completion of ne.v construction that determined the base year, if successful, reduce the assessment for the year in which the appeal is taken and prospectively thereafter. More0.ter, in the case of any reduction in any one year of assessed value granted for "ongoing hardship" in the then current year, and al so in any cases involving stipulated appeals for prior years relating to base year and personal property assessments, the property tax revenues from which Pledged Tax Revenues are derived attributable to such properties wi 11 be reduced in the then current year. I n practice, such a reduced assessment may remain in effect beyond the year in which it is granted. See "THE PROJECT AREA" for information regarding the assessed val uati ons of the I argest taxpayers within the Prqj ect Area.

Proposition 8

Proposition 8, appr0.ted in 1978 (California Revenue and Taxation Code Section 51 (b)), pr0.tides for the assessment of real property at the lesser of its originally deternined (base year) full cash value compounded annually b,I the inflation factor, or its full cash value as of the lien date, taking into account reductions in value due to damage, destruction, obsolescence or other factors causing a decl i ne in market value. Reductions under this code section may be initiated b,I the County Assessor or requested b,I the property o.vner.

After a roll reduction is granted under this code section, the property is reviewed on an annual basis to determine its full cash value and the valuation is acjjusted accordingly. This may result in further reductions or in value increases. Such increases must be in accordance with the full cash value of the property and may exceed the maximum annual inflationary grONth rate allo.ved on other properties under Article XIIIA of the State Constitution. Once the property has regained its prior value, acjjusted for inflation, it once again is suqject to the annual inflationary factor grONth rate allo.ved under ArticleXIIIA.

The Successor Agency cannot guarantee that reductions undertaken b,I the County Assessor or requested b,I a property o.vner pursuant to Proposition 8 will not in the future reduce the assessed valuation of property in the PrqjectArea and, therefore, Pledged Tax Revenues that secure the Bonds.

Propositions 218 and 26

On Ncweniber 5, 1996, California voters appr0.ted Proposition 218----Voter Appr0.tal for Local G0.ternment Taxes-Limitation on Fees, Assessments, and Charges-Initiative Constitutional Amendment. Proposition 218 added Articles XI I IC and X 111 D to the State Constitution, imposing certain vote requirements and other limitations on the imposition of new or increased taxes, assessments and property,elated fees and charges. On N0.teniber 2, 2010, California voters apprcwed Proposition 26, the "Supermajority Vote to Pass New Taxes and Fees Act." Proposition 26 amended Article XIIIC of the California Constitution b,I adding an expansive definition for the term "tax," which previously was not defined under the California Constitution. Pledged Tax Revenues securing the Bonds are derived from property taxes which are outside the scope of taxes, assessments and property ,elated fees and charges which are limited b,I Proposition 218 and outside of the scope of taxes which are limited b,I Proposition 26.

Future Initiatives

Article XIIIA, Article XIIIB, Article XIIIC and Article XIIID and certain other propositions affecting property tax levies were each adopted as measures which qualified for the ballot pursuant to California's initiative process. From time to time other initiative measures could be adopted, further affecting Successor Agency revenues or the Successor Agency's ability to expend revenues.

TAX MATTERS

the receipt of interest on any Bond. A copy of the form of opinion of Bond Counsel relating to the Bonds is included in Appendix B.

Federal Income Tax Considerations

The follcwing is a general summary of certain United States federal income tax consequences of the purchase and cwnership of the Bonds. The discussion is based upon the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the "Code"), United States Treasury Regulations, rulings and decisions new in effect, all of which are suqject to change (possibly, with retroactive effect) or possibly differing interpretations. The discussion belcw is based upon laws, regulations, rulings, and decisions in effect and available on the date hereof, all of which are suqject to change, possibly with retroactive effect. No assurance can be given that future changes in the law will not alterthe conclusions reached herein.

Prospective investors should note that no rulings have been or are expected to be sought from the Internal Revenue Service (the "I RS") with respect to any of the U.S. federal tax considerations discussed belcw, and no assurance can be given that the I RS will not take contrary positions. Further, the follcwing discussion does not deal with U.S. tax consequences appi icable to any given investor, nor does it address the U.S. tax considerations applicable to all categories of investors, some of which may be suqject to special taxing rules (regardless of whether or not such investors constitute U.S. Holders), such as certain U.S. expatriates, banks, REITs, RI Cs, insurance companies, tax-exempt organizations, dealers or traders in securities or currencies, partnerships, S corporations, estates and trusts, investors that hold their Bonds as part of a hedge, straddle or an integrated or conversion transaction, or investors whose "functi anal currency" is not the U.S. dollar. Furthermore, it does not address (i) alternative minimum tax consequences, or (ii) the indirect effects on persons who hold equity interests in a holder. This summary also does not consider the taxation of the Bonds under local or non-U.S. tax laws. In addition, this summary generally is limited to U.S. tax considerations applicable to investors that acquire their Bonds pursuant to this offering for the issue price that is applicable to such Bonds (i.e., the price at which a substantial amount of the Bonds is sold to the public) and who will hold their Bonds as "capital assets" within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Code.

As used herein, "U.S. Holder" means a beneficial cwner of a Bond that for U.S. federal income tax purposes is an individual citizen or resident of the United States, a corporation or other entity taxable as a corporation created or organized in or under the I aws of the United States or any state thereof (including the District of Columbia), an estate the income of which is suqject to U.S. federal income taxation regardless of its source or a trust where a court within the United States is able to exercise primary supervision cwerthe administration of the trust and one or more United States persons (as defined in the Code) have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust (or a trust that has made a valid election under U.S. Treasury Regulations to be treated as a domestic trust). As used herein, "Non­U.S. Holder" generally means a beneficial cwner of a Bond (other than a partnership) that is not a U.S. Holder. If a partnership holds Bonds, the tax treatment of such partnership or a partner in such partnership generally will depend upon the status of the partner and upon the activities of the partnership. Partnerships holding Bonds, and partners in such partnerships, should consult their cwn tax advisors regarding the tax consequences of an investment in the Bonds (including their status as U.S. Holders or N on-U .S. Holders).

ALL PROSPECTIVE INVESTORS SHOULD CONSULT THEIR OWN TAX ADVISORS IN DETERMINING THE FEDERAL, STATE, LOCAL, FOREIGN AND ANY OTHER TAX CONSEQUENCES TO THEM FROM THE PURCHASE, OWNERSHIP AND DISPOSITION OF THE BONDS.

U.S. Holders

I nterest on the Bands. Band Counsel has rendered no opinion regarding the exclusion pursuant to section 103(a) of the Code of interest on the Bonds from gross income for federal income tax purposes. The Successor Agency has taken no action to cause, and does not intend, i nterest on the Bands to be excluded pursuant to section 103(a) of the Code from the gross i ncorre of the o.vners thereof for federal income tax purposes. The Successor Agency intends totreatthe Bonds as debt instrurrents for all federal income tax purposes, including any applicable reporting requirerrents under the Code. THE SUCCESSOR AGENCY EXPECTS THAT THE INTEREST PAID ON A BOND GENERALLY WILL BE INCLUDED IN THE GROSS INCOME OF THE OWNER THEREOF FOR FEDERAL INCOME TAX PURPOSES WHEN RECEIVED OR ACCRUED, DEPENDING UPON THE TAX ACCOUNTING METHOD OF THAT OWNER.

Disposition of Bonds, Inclusion of Acquisition Discount and Treatrrent of Market Discount. To the extent that the issue price of any maturity of the Bonds is less than the amount to be paid at maturity of such Bands by more than a de ni ni ni s amount ( excluding amounts stated to be interest and payable at least annually ewer the term of such Bonds), the difference may constitute original issue discount ("OID"). U.S. Holders of Bonds will be required to include OID in incorre for U.S. federal income tax purposes as it accrues, in accordance with a constant yield rrethod based on a compounding of interest (which may be before the receipt of cash payrrents attributable to such income). Under this rrethod, U.S. Holders generally will be required to include in incorre increasingly greater amounts of 01 D in successive accrual periods.

Arnortizable Bond Prenium. A holder of a Bond that purchased that bond for an amount that was greater than its stated redemption price at maturity will be considered to have purchased the Bond with "amortizable bond prenium" equal in amount to such excess. A U.S. Holder of a Bond purchased with amortizable bond prenium may elect to amortize such premium using a constant yield rrethod ewer the remaining term of the Bond and may offset interest otherwise required to be included in respect of the Taxable Bond during any taxable year by the amortized amount of such excess for the taxable year. Bond prenium on a Bond held by a U.S. Holder that does not make such an election will decrease the amount of gain or increase the amount of loss otherwise recognized on the sale, exchange, redemption or retirerrent of a Bond. Ho.vever, if the Bond may be optionally redeerred after the beneficial o.vner acquires it at a price in excess of its stated redemption price at maturity, special rules would apply under the Treasury Regulations which could result in a deferral of the amortization of some bond prenium until I ater in the term of the Band. Any election to amortize bond preni um appl i es to al I taxable debt instrurrents held by the beneficial o.vner on or after the first day of the first taxable year to which such election applies and may be revoked only with the consent of the Service. That a Bond was purchased by the holder with amorti zabl e bond preni um may affect the computation of i ncl udabl e ori gi nal issue discount for that holder.

Sale or other Taxable Disposition of a Bond; Market Discount. Unless a nonrecognition prewision of the Code applies, the sale, exchange, redemption, retirerrent or other taxable disposition of a Bond will be a taxable event for U.S. federal income tax purposes. In such event, in general, a U.S. Holder of a Bond will recognize gain or loss equal to the difference between (i) the amount of cash plus the fair market value of property received (except to the extent attributable to accrued but unpaid interest on the Bond, which will be taxed in the manner described above) and (ii) the U.S. Holder's adjusted U.S. federal i ncorre tax basis i n the B and ( general ly, the purchase price paid by the U .S. Holder for the Band, decreased by any amortized premium, and increased by the amount of any OID previously included in income by such U .S. Halder with respect to such B and) . Any such gain or I oss general ly wi 11 be capital gain or loss. In the case of a non-corporate U.S. Holder of the Bonds, the maximum marginal U.S. federal i ncorre tax rate appl i cable to any such gain wi 11 be I o.ver than the maxi mum marginal U .S. federal

52

income tax rate applicable to ordinary income if such U.S. Holder's holding period for the Bonds exceeds one year. The deductibility of capital losses is suqject to limitations.

Under current law, a U.S. Holder of a Bond who did not purchase that Bond in the initial public offering (a "subsequent purchaser") generally will be required, on the disposition (or earlier partial pri nci pal payment) of such Band, to recognize as ordi nary i ncome a portion of the gai n ( or partial principal payment), if any, to the extent of the accrued "market discount." In general, market discount is the amount b,I which the price paid for such Bond b,I such a subsequent purchaser is less than the stated redemption price at maturity of that Bond (or, in the case of a Bond bearing original issue discount, is less than the "revised issue price" of that Bond (as defined belcw) upon such purchase), except that market discount is considered to be zero if it is less than one quarter of one percent of the principal amount times the number of complete remaining years to maturity. The Code also Ii nits the deductibility of interest incurred b,I a subsequent purchaser on funds borrcwed to acquire Bonds with market discount. As an alternative to the inclusion of market discount in income upon disposition, a subsequent purchaser may elect to include market discount in income currently as it accrues on all market discount instruments acquired b,I the subsequent purchaser in that taxable year or thereafter, in which case the interest deferral rule will not apply. The recharacterization of gain as ordinary income on a subsequent disposition of such Bands could have a material effect on the market value of such Bands.

Medicare Tax. Certain non-corporate U.S. Holders of Bonds are suqject to a 3.8% tax on the lesser of (1) the U.S. Holder's "net investment income" (in the case of individuals) or "undistributed net investment income" (in the case of estates and certain trusts) for the relevant taxable year and (2) the excess of the U.S. Holder's "modified aqjusted gross income" (in the case of individuals) or "aqjusted gross income" (in the case of estates and certain trusts) for the taxable year ewer a certain threshold (which in the case of individuals is between $200,000 and $250,000, depending on the individual's circumstances). A U.S. Holder's calculation of net investment income generally will include its interest income on the Bands and its net gai ns from the di sposi ti on of the Bands, uni ess such i nterest income or net gains are derived in the ordinary course of the conduct of a trade or business ( other than a trade or business that consists of certain passive or trading activities).

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding. Payments on the Bonds generally will be suqject to U.S. information reporting and possibly to "backup withholding." Under Section 3406 of the Code and applicable U.S. Treasury Regulations issued thereunder, a non-corporate U.S. Holder of the Bonds may be suqject to backup withholding at the current rate of 2836 with respect to "reportable payments," which include interest paid on the Bonds and the gross proceeds of a sale, exchange, redemption, retirement or other disposition of the Bonds. The payor will be required to deduct and withhold the prescribed amounts if (i) the payee fails to furnish a U.S. taxpayer identification number ("Tl N") to the payor in the manner required, (ii) the I RS notifies the payor that the Tl N furnished b,I the payee is incorrect, (iii) there has been a "notified payee underreporting" described in Section 3406(c) of the Code or (iv) the payee fails to certify under penalty of peoury that the payee is not suqject to withholding under Section 3406(a)(l)(C) of the Code. Amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules may be refunded or credited against the U.S. Holder's federal income tax liability, if any, provided that the required information is timely furnished to the I RS. Certain U.S. holders (including among others, corporations and certain tax-exempt organi zati ans) are not suqj ect to backup wi thhol ding. A holder's failure to comply with the backup withholding rules may result in the imposition of penalties by the I RS.

Non--U.S. Holders

Under sections 1441 and 1442 of the Code, nonresident alien individuals and foreign corporations are generally suqject to withholding at the current rate of 3036 (suqject to change) on periodic income items arising from sources within the United States, pro.tided such incorre is not effectively connected with the conduct of a United States trade or business.

The foregoing notwithstanding, but suqject to the discussions belo.v under the headings "Information Reporting and Backup Withholding" and "Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act ("FATCA")-U.S. Holders and Non--U .S. Holders," and assuming the interest income of Non-US Holder on the Bonds is not treated as effectively connected income within the meaning of section 864 of the Code, such interest will not be suqject to 3036 withholding, or any lo.ver rate specified in an income tax treaty, if such i ncorre is treated as portfolio interest. Interest wil I be treated as portfolio interest if: (i) the Non--U.S. Holder pro.tides a staterrent to the payor certifying, under penalties of peoury, that the Non­U.S. Holder is not a United States person and pro.tiding the narre and address of such Non--U.S. Holder; (ii) such interest is treated as not effectively connected with a United States trade or business of the Non­U.S. Holder; (iii) such interest payrrents are not made to a person within a foreign country that the Service has included on a list of countries having prcwisions inadequate to prevent United States tax evasion; (iv) interest payable with respect to the Bonds is not deerred contingent interest within the rreaning of the portfolio debt prcwision; (v) the Non--U.S. Holder is not a controlled foreign corporation, within the rreaning of section 957 of the Code; and (vi) the Non--U.S. Holder is not a bank receiving interest on the Bonds pursuant to a loan agreerrent entered into in the ordinary course of the Non--U.S. Holder's banking trade or business.

Assuning payrrents on the Bonds are treated as portfolio interest within the meaning of sections 871 and 881 of the Code, then no withholding under section 1441 and 1442 of the Code and no backup withholding under section 3406 of the Code is required with respect to an o.vner or intermediary who has pro.tided a certification completed in compliance with applicable statutory and regulatory requirerrents, which requirerrents are discussed belo.v under the heading "Information Reporting and Backup Withholding," or an exemption is otherwise established.

Suqject to the discussions belo.v under the headings "Information Reporting and Backup Withholding' and "Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act ("FATCA")-U.S. Holders and Non--U.S. Holders," any capital gain realized b,I a Non--U.S. Holder upon the sale, exchange, redemption, retirerrent or other taxable disposition of a Bond generally will not be suqject to U.S. federal income tax, unless (i) such gain is effectively connected with the conduct b,I such Non--U.S. Holder of a trade or business within the United States; or (ii) in the case of any gain realized b,I an individual Non--U.S. Holder, such holder is present in the United States for 183 days or more in the taxable year of such sale, exchange, redemption, retirerrent or other disposition and certain other conditions are rret.

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding. Suqject to the discussion belo.v under the heading "Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act ("FATCA")-U.S. Holders and Non--U.S. Holders," under current U.S. Treasury Regulations, payrrents of principal and interest on any Bonds to a Non--U.S. Holder will not be suqject to any backup withholding tax requirerrents if the Non--U.S. Holder of the Bond or a financial institution holding the Bond on behalf of the Non--U.S. Holder in the ordinary course of its trade or business pro.tides an appropriate certification to the payor and the payor does not have actual kno.vledge that the certification is false. If a Non--U.S. Holder pro.tides the certification, the certification must give the name and address of such Non--U .S. Holder, state that such Non--U .S. Holder is not a United States person, or, in the case of an individual, that such Non--U.S. Holder is neither a citizen nor a resident of the United States, and the Non--U.S. Holder must sign the certificate under penalties of peoury. The current backup withholding tax rate is 2836.

Foreign Account Tax Corrpliance Act ("FATCA")-U.S. Holders and Non--U.S. Holders. Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code imp:ise a 3036 withholding tax on certain types of payments made to foreign financial i nsti tuti ons, uni ess the foreign fi nanci al institution enters into an agreement with the U.S. Treasury to, among other things, undertake to identify accounts held b,I certain U.S. persons or U.S.-o.vned entities, annually report certain information about such accounts, and withhold 3036 on payments to account holders whose actions prevent it from complying with these and other reporting requirements, or unless the foreign financial institution is otherwise exempt from those requirements. In addition, FATCA irrposes a 3036 withholding tax on the same types of payments to a non-financial foreign entity unless the entity certifies that it does not have any substantial U.S. cwners or the entity furnishes identifying information regarding each substantial U.S. cwner. Failure to comply with the additional certification, information reporting and other specified requirements imp:ised under FATCA could result in the 3036 withholding tax being imp:ised on payments of interest and principal under the Bonds and sales proceeds of Bonds held b,I or through a foreign entity. In general, withholding under FATCA currently applies to payments of U.S. source interest (including OID) and, under current guidance, will apply to (i) gross proceeds from the sale, exchange or retirement of debt obligations paid after December 31, 2018 and (ii) certain "passthru" payments no earlier than January 1, 2019. Prospective investors should consultthei r cwn tax ad.ti sors regarding FA TCA and its effect on them.

The foregoing summary is included herein for general information only and does not discuss al I aspects of U .S. federal taxation that may be relevant to a particular holder of Bands i n I i ght of the holder's particular circumstances and income tax situation. Prospective investors are urged to consult their cwn tax ad.ti sors as to any tax consequences to them from the purchase, cwnershi p and di sp:isi ti on of Bands, incl udi ng the application and effect of state, I ocal , non--U .S., and othertax I aws.

Effect of Defeasance. Pursuant to the Trust Agreement, the Bonds are suqject to legal defeasance without the consent of the holders of the Bands. Defeasance of any of the Bands may be treated as a taxable constructive exchange of that Bond for the defeased Bond, in which event, the holder will recognize gain or loss for federal income tax purp:ises equal to the difference between the amount realized from the sale, exchange or retirement (less any accrued qualified stated interest, which will be taxable as described above) and the holder's adjusted tax basis in the Bonds (described above).

ERISA CONSIDERATIONS

The Employee Retirement I ncorne Security Act of 1974, as amended ("ERISA"), imp:ises certain restrictions on employee pension and welfare benefit plans suqject to ERISA ("ERISA Plans") regarding prohibited transactions, and also imp:ises certain obligations on those persons who are fiduciaries with respect to ERISA Plans. Section 4975 of the Code imp:ises similar prohibited transaction restrictions on (i) tax-qualified retirement plans described in Section 401(a) and 403(a) of the Code, which are exerrpt from tax under section 501 (a) of the Code and which are not g0.ternmental and church plans as defined herein ("Qualified Retirement Plans"), and (ii) Individual Retirement Accounts described in Section 408(b) of the Code ("Tax-favored Plans"). Certain errployee benefit plans, such as g0.ternmental plans (as defined in Section 3(32) of ERISA), and, if no election has been made under Section 41CXd) of the Code, church plans (as defined in Section 3(33) of ERISA), are not suqject to ERISA requirements. Additionally, such g0.ternmental and non-electing church plans are not suqject to the requirements of Section 4975 of the Code. Although assets of such g0.ternmental or non-electing church plans may be invested in the Bonds without regard to the ERISA and Code considerations described belcw, any such investment may be suqject to prcwisions of applicable federal and state law that are, to a material extent, sinilartothe requirements of ERi SA and Section 4975 of the Code ("Sinilar Law").

In addition to the imp:isition of general fiduciary obligations, including those of investment prudence and diversification and the requirement that a plan's investment be made in accordance with the

ck:x:urrents gcweming the plan, Section 4ili of ERISA and Section 4975 of the Code prohibit a broad range of transactions involving assets of ERISA Plans and Tax-favored Plans and entities whose underlying assets include plan assets b,I reason of ERISA Plans or Tax-favored Plans investing in such entities (collectively, "Benefit Plans") and persons who have certain specified relationships to the Benefit Plans (such persons are referred to as "Parties in Interest" or "Disqualified Persons"), unless a statutory or administrative exemption is available. Certain Parties in Interest (or Disqualified Persons) that participate in a prohibited transaction rnay be suqject to a penalty (or an excise tax) imposed pursuant to Section 502(i) of ERISA (or Section 4975 of the Code) unless a statutory or administrative exemption is available.

Certain exemptions from the prohibited transaction rules could be applicable depending on the type and ci rcumstances of the pl an fiduciary making the decision to acquire a Band. I ncl uded arnong these exemptions are: Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption ("PTCE") 75-1, relating to certain broker­deal er transactions, PT CE 96-23, regarding transacti ans effected b,I "i n--house asset managers"; PT CE 90-1, regarding investrrents b,I insurance corrpany pooled separate accounts; PTCE 95--60, regarding transactions effected b,l "insurance corrpany general accounts"; PTCE 91-38, regarding investrrents b,I bank collective investrrent funds; and PTCE 84-14, regarding transactions effected b,I "qualified professional asset managers." In addition, Section 408(b)(17) of ERISA and Section 4975(d)(20) of the Code generally pro.tide for a statutory exemption from the prohibitions of Section 4ai(a) of ERISA and Section 4975 of the Code for certain transactions between Benefit Plans and persons who are Parties in Interest solely b,I reason of pro.tiding services to such Benefit Plans or who are persons affiliated with such service prcwiders, pro.tided generally that such persons are not fiduciaries with respect to "plan assets" of any Benefit Plan involved in the transaction and that certain other conditions are satisfied.

Any Benefit Plan fiduciary considering whether to purchase Bonds on behalf of an ERISA Plan should consult with its counsel regarding the applicability of the fiduciary responsibility and prohibited transaction prcwisions of ERISA and the Code to such investrrent and the availability of any of the exerrptions referred to abcwe. In addition, persons responsible for considering the purchase of Bonds b,I a gcwemrrental plan or non-electing church plan should consult with its counsel regarding the applicability of any Similar Law to such an investrrent.

Upon deposit of such Qualified Reserve Fund Credit Instrument, the Trustee shall transfer any excess amounts then on deposit in the Reserve Fund in excess of the applicable Reserve Requirement into a segregated account of the Revenue Fund, which monies shall be applied upon written direction of the Successor Agency either (i) to the payment within one year of the date of transfer of capital expenditures of the Successor Agency permitted by law, or (ii) to the redemption of Bonds on the earliest succeeding date on which such redemption is permitted hereby, and pending such application shall be, as determined in writing by the Successor Agency, held either not invested in investment property ( as defined in section 148(b) of the Code), or invested in such property to produce a yield that is not in excess of the yield on the Bonds; pro.tided, hcwever, that the Successor Agency may by written direction to the Trustee cause an alternative use of such amounts if the Successor Agency shall first have obtained a written opinion of nationally recognized bond counsel substantially to the effect that such alternative use will not adversely affect the exclusion pursuant to section 103 of the Code of interest on the Bonds from the gross income of the owners thereof for federal income tax purposes. In any case where the Reserve Fund is funded with a combination of cash and a Qualified Reserve Fund Credit Instrument, the Trustee shall deplete all cash balances before drawing on the Qualified Reserve Fund Credit Instrument. With regard to replenishment, any available moneys provided by the Successor Agency shall be used first to reinstate the Qualified Reserve Fund Credit Instrument and second, to replenish the cash in the Reserve Fund. If the Qualified Reserve Fund Credit Instrument is drawn upon, the Successor Agency shall make payment of interest on amounts advanced under the Qualified Reserve Fund Credit Instrument after making any payments pursuant to this subsection. If a Qualified Reserve Fund Credit Instrument provider is downgraded for any reason, there shall be no obligation to replace or secure the Qualified Reserve Fund Credit Instrument.

Replenishrrent of Reserve Fund. The Trustee shall value the balance in the Reserve Fund on each August 2, commencing August 2, 2018. If the balance in the Reserve Fund is less than the Reserve Requirement, the Trustee shall indicate the amount of such deficiency in a Written Request to the Successor Agency. Upon receipt of such Written Request, the Successor Agency shall immediately take all necessary action to cure such deficiency in the Reserve Fund, including using best efforts to place the amount of such deficiency on a Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule. No transfers or deposits need be made to the Reserve Fund so long as there is on deposit therein a sum at least equal to the Reserve Requirement.

The Trustee may conclusively rely on any certificate of report of any Independent Accountant or Independent Redevelopment Consultant appointed by the Successor Agency.

Preservation and Inspection of Documents. All documents received by the Trustee under the provisions of the Indenture shall be retained in its possession and shall be subject at all reasonable times during regular business hours upon reasonable notice to the inspection of the Successor Agency and any Owner, and their agents and representatives duly authorized in writing, at reasonable hours and under reasonable conditions.

Such books of record and account shall be available for inspection by the Successor Agency and the Insurer at reasonable hours and under reasonable circumstances with reasonable prior notice. The Trustee shall furnish to the Successor Agency, at least quarterly, an accounting of all transactions in the form of its regular account statements relating to the proceeds of the Bonds and all funds and accounts held by the Trustee pursuant to the Indenture.

Appointment of Co-Trustee or Agent. It is the purpose of the Indenture that there shall be no violation of any law of any jurisdiction (including particularly the law of the State) denying or restricting the right of banking corporations or associations to transact business as Trustee in such jurisdiction. It is recognized that in the case of litigation under the Indenture, and in particular in case of the enforcement of the rights of the Trustee on default, or in the case the Trustee deems that by reason of any present or future law of any jurisdiction it may not exercise any of the powers, rights or remedies in the Indenture granted to the Trustee or hold title to the properties, as in the Indenture granted, or take any other action which may be desirable or necessary in connection therewith, it may be necessary that the Trustee or Successor Agency appoint an additional individual or institution as a separate co-trustee. The following provisions of the Indenture are adopted to these ends.

In the event that the Trustee or Successor Agency appoint an additional individual or institution as a separate or co-trustee, each and every remedy, power, right, claim, demand, cause of action, immunity, estate, title, interest and lien expressed or intended by the Indenture to be exercised by or vested in or conveyed to the Trustee with respect thereto shall be exercisable by and vest in such separate or co-trustee to exercise such powers, rights and remedies, and every covenant an obligation necessary to the exercise thereof by such separate or co-trustee shall run to and be enforceable by either of them.

Should any instrument in writing from the Successor Agency be required by the separate trustee or co-trustee so appointed by the Trustee or Successor Agency for more fully and certainly vesting in and confinning to it such properties, rights, powers, trusts, duties and obligations, any and all such instruments in writing shall, on request, be executed, acknowledged and delivered by the Successor Agency. In case any separate trustee or co-trustee, or a successor to either, shall become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all the estates, properties, rights, powers, trusts, duties and obligations of such separate trustee or co-trustee, so far as permitted by law, shall vest in and be exercised by the Trustee until the appointment of a new trustee or successor to such separate trustee or co-trustee.

In addition to the appointment of a co-trustee under the Indenture, the Trustee may, at the expense and with the prior written consent of the Successor Agency, appoint any agent of the Trustee in New York, New York, for the purpose of administering the transfers or exchanges of Bonds or for the performance of any other responsibilities of the Trustee under the Indenture.

MODIFICATION OR AMENDMENT OF THE INDENTURE

Amendment Without Consent of Owners. The Indenture and the rights and obligations of the Successor Agency and of the Owners may be modified or amended at any time by a Supplemental Indenture which shall become binding upon adoption, without consent of any Owners, to the extent permitted by law and any for one or more of the following purposes:

(a) to add to the covenants and agreements of the Successor Agency in the Indenture contained, other covenants and agreements thereafter to be observed or to limit or surrender any rights or power in the Indenture reserved to or conferred upon the Successor Agency; or

(b) to make such provisions for the purpose of curing any ambiguity, inconsistency or omission, or of curing or correcting any defective provision contained in the Indenture, or as to any other provisions of the Indenture as the Successor Agency may deem necessary or desirable, in any case which do not have a material and adverse effect on the security for the Bonds granted under the Indenture; or

( c) to modify, amend or supplement the Indenture in such manner as to permit the qualification of the Indenture under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended, or any similar federal statute hereafter in effect, and to add such other terms, conditions and provisions as may be permitted by said act or similar federal statute; or

( d) to modify or amend any provision of the Indenture with any effect and to any extent whatsoever permissible by law, provided that any such modification or amendment shall apply only to the Bonds issued and delivered subsequent to the execution and delivery of the applicable Supplemental Indenture.

The Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into any such Supplemental Indenture which affects the Trustee's own rights, duties or immunities under the Indenture or otherwise.

Amendment With Consent of Owners. Except as set forth in the Indenture, the Indenture and the rights and obligations of the Successor Agency and of the Owners may be modified or amended at any time by a Supplemental Indenture which shall become binding when the written consent of the Owners of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Bonds then Outstanding are filed with the Trustee. No such modification or amendment shall (i) extend the fixed maturity of any Bonds, or reduce the amount of principal thereof, or extend the time of payment, without the consent of the Owner of each Bond so affected, or ( ii) reduce the aforesaid percentage of Bonds the consent of the Owners of which is required to effect any such modification or amendment, or (iii) permit the creation of any lien on the Revenues and other assets pledged under the Indenture prior to or on a parity with the lien created by the Indenture or deprive the Owners of the Bonds of the lien created by the Indenture on such Pledged Tax Revenues and other assets ( except as expressly provided in the Indenture), without the consent of the Owners of all of the Bonds then Outstanding. It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Bond Owners to approve the particular form of any Supplemental Indenture, but it shall be sufficient if such consent shall approve the substance thereof. Promptly after the execution by the Successor Agency and the Trustee of any Supplemental Indenture pursuant to the Indenture, the Trustee shall cause to be mailed a notice (the form of which shall be furnished to the Trustee by the Successor Agency), by first class mail postage prepaid, setting forth in general terms the substance of such Supplemental Indenture, to the Owners of the Bonds at the respective addresses shown on the Registration Books. Any failure to give such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such Supplemental Indenture.

The Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into any such Supplemental Indenture which affects the Trustee's own rights, duties or immunities under the Indenture or otherwise.

Effect of Supplemental Indenture. From and after the time any Supplemental Indenture becomes effective pursuant to the Indenture, the Indenture shall be deemed to be modified and amended in accordance therewith, the respective rights, duties and obligations of the parties to the Indenture or thereto and all Owners, as the case may be, shall thereafter be determined, exercised and enforced under the Indenture subject in all respects to such modification and amendment, and all the terms and conditions of any Supplemental Indenture shall be deemed to be part of the terms and conditions of the Indenture for any and all purposes.

Endorsement or Replacement of Bonds After Amendment. After the effective date of any amendment or modification of the Indenture pursuant to the Indenture, the Successor Agency may determine that any or all of the Bonds shall bear a notation, by endorsement in form approved by the Successor Agency, as to such amendment or modification and in that case upon demand of the Successor Agency, the Owners of such Bonds shall present such Bonds for that purpose at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and thereupon a suitable notation as to such action shall be made on such Bonds. In lieu of such notation, the Successor Agency may determine that new Bonds shall be prepared and executed in exchange for any or all of the Bonds and, in that case upon demand of the Successor Agency, the Owners of the Bonds shall present such Bonds for exchange at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, without cost to such Owners.

Amendment by Mutual Consent. The provisions of the Indenture shall not prevent any Owner from accepting any amendment as to the particular Bond held by such Owner, provided that due notation thereof is made on such Bond.

EVENTS OF DEFAULT AND REMEDIES OF OWNERS

Events of Default and Acceleration of Maturities. The following events shall constitute Events of Default under the Indenture:

(a) if default shall be made in the due and punctual payment of the principal of or interest or redemption premium (if any) on any Bond when and as the same shall become due and payable, whether at maturity as therein expressed, by declaration or otherwise;

(b) if default shall be made by the Successor Agency in the observance of any of the covenants, agreements or conditions on its part in the Indenture or in the Bonds contained, other than a default described in the preceding clause (a), and such default shall have continued for a period of thirty (30) days following receipt by the Successor Agency of written notice from the Trustee, the Insurer or any Owner of not less than 50% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Bonds (with the prior written consent of the Insurer); provided, that if such default is such that it cannot be corrected within the applicable period, it shall not constitute an Event of Default if corrective action is instituted by the Successor Agency within the applicable period and diligently pursued until the default is corrected, which period shall not be longer than sixty (60) days from the date of written notice specifying the failure; or

( c) if the Successor Agency shall commence a voluntary action under Title 11 of the United States Code or any substitute or successor statute.

If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee may, or if requested in writing by the Owners of the majority in aggregate principal amount of the Bonds then Outstanding, the Trustee shall, by written notice to the Successor Agency, (a) only in the event of a default under subparagraph (a)

A-24

Page 95: cdiacdocs.sto.ca.govcdiacdocs.sto.ca.gov/2017-2938.pdf · NEW ISSUE-BOOK-ENTRY RATINGS: Insured: S& P: "AA" Underlying: S& P: "A-t'' See"Ratings" herein In the opinion of Norton Rose

above, declare the principal of the Bonds, together with the accrued interest thereon, to be due and payable immediately, and upon any such declaration the same shall become immediately due and payable, and (b) upon any Event of Default (with receipt of indemnity to its satisfaction) exercise any remedies available to the Trustee and the Owners in law or at equity.

Immediately upon becoming aware of the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Trustee shall give notice of such Event of Default to the Successor Agency in writing. Such notice shall also state whether the principal of the Bonds shall have been declared to be or have immediately become due and payable. With respect to any Event of Default described in clauses (a) or (c) above the Trustee shall, and with respect to any Event of Default described in clause (b) above the Trustee in its sole discretion may, also give such notice to the Successor Agency, and the Owners in the same manner as provided herein for notices of redemption of the Bonds, which shall include the statement that interest on the Bonds shall cease to accrue from and after the date, if any, on which the Trustee shall have declared the Bonds to become due and payable pursuant to the preceding paragraph (but only to the extent that principal and any accrued, but unpaid interest on the Bonds is actually paid on such date.)

This provision, however, is subject to the condition that if, at any time after the principal of the Bonds shall have been so declared due and payable, and before any judgment or decree for the payment of the moneys due shall have been obtained or entered, the Successor Agency shall deposit with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay all principal on the Bonds matured prior to such declaration and all matured installments of interest (if any) upon all the Bonds, with interest on such overdue installments of principal and interest (to the extent permitted by law) at the net effective rate then borne by the Outstanding Bonds, and the reasonable fees and expenses of the Trustee, including but not limited to attorneys' fees, and any and all other defaults known to the Trustee ( other than in the payment of principal of and interest on the Bonds due and payable solely by reason of such declaration) shall have been made good or cured to the satisfaction of the Trustee or provision deemed by the Trustee to be adequate shall have been made therefor, then, and in every such case, the Owners of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Bonds then Outstanding, by written notice to the Successor Agency and to the Trustee, may, on behalf of the Owners of all of the Bonds, rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences. However, no such rescission and annulment shall extend to or shall affect any subsequent default, or shall impair or exhaust any right or power consequent thereon.

Upon the occurrence of an event of default, the Trustee may, with the consent of a majority of the Owners, by written notice to the Successor Agency, declare the principal of the Bonds to be immediately due and payable, whereupon that portion of the principal of the Bonds thereby coming due and the interest thereon accrued to the date of payment shall, without further action, become and be immediately due and payable, anything in the Indenture in the Bonds to the contrary notwithstanding.

Application of Funds Upon Acceleration. All of the Pledged Tax Revenues and all sums in the funds and accounts established and held by the Trustee under the Indenture upon the date of the declaration of acceleration as provided in the Indenture, and all sums thereafter received by the Trustee under the Indenture, shall be applied by the Trustee in the order following, upon presentation of the several Bonds, and the stamping thereon of the payment if only partially paid, or upon the surrender thereof if fully paid:

First, to the payment of the fees, costs and expenses of the Trustee in declaring such Event of Default and in exercising the rights and remedies set forth in the Indenture, including reasonable compensation to its agents, advisors and attorneys including all sums owed the Trustee pursuant to the Indenture;

A-25

Page 96: cdiacdocs.sto.ca.govcdiacdocs.sto.ca.gov/2017-2938.pdf · NEW ISSUE-BOOK-ENTRY RATINGS: Insured: S& P: "AA" Underlying: S& P: "A-t'' See"Ratings" herein In the opinion of Norton Rose

Second, to the payment pro rata of the whole amount then owing and on the Bonds ( and any refunding bonds payable from Pledged Tax Revenues on a parity with Outstanding Bonds) for principal and interest, with interest on the overdue principal and installments of interest at the net effective rate then borne by the Outstanding Bonds (to the extent that such interest on overdue instalhnents of principal and interest shall have been collected), and in case such moneys shall be insufficient to pay in full the whole amount so owing and unpaid upon the Bonds, then to the payment of such principal and interest without preference or priority of principal over interest, or interest over principal, or of any instalhnent of interest over any other installment of interest, ratably to the aggregate of such principal and interest or any Bond over any other Bond; and

Third, to the payment of amounts due to the Insurer not paid pursuant to First and Second above.

Power of Trustee to Control Proceedings. If the Trustee, upon the happening of an Event of Default, shall have taken any action, by judicial proceedings or otherwise, pursuant to its duties under the Indenture, whether upon its own discretion or upon the request of the Owners of a majority in principal amount of the Bonds then Outstanding, it shall have full power, in the exercise of its discretion for the best interests of the Owners of the Bonds, with respect to the continuance, discontinuance, withdrawal, compromise, settlement or other disposal of such action; provided, however, that the Trustee shall not, unless there no longer continues an Event of Default, discontinue, withdraw, compromise or settle, or otherwise dispose of any litigation pending at law or in equity, if at the time there has been filed with it a written request signed by the Owners of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Bonds under the Indenture opposing such discontinuance, withdrawal, compromise, settlement or other disposal of such litigation.

Limitation on Owner's Right to Sue. No Owner of any Bond issued under the Indenture nor the Insurer shall have the right to institute any suit, action or proceeding at law or in equity, for any remedy under or upon the Indenture, unless (a) such Owner or the Insurer shall have previously given to the Trustee written notice of the occurrence of an Event of Default; (b) the Insurer or the Owners of a majority in aggregate principal amount of all the Bonds then Outstanding shall have made written request upon the Trustee to exercise the powers hereinbefore granted or to institute such action, suit or proceeding in its own name; ( c) the Insurer or such Owners shall have tendered to the Trustee indemnity reasonably acceptable to the Trustee against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in compliance with such request; and (d) the Trustee shall have refused or omitted to comply with such request for a period of sixty (60) days after such written request shall have been received by, and such tender of indemnity shall have been made to, the Trustee.

Such notification, request, tender of indemnity and refusal or omission are hereby declared, in every case, to be conditions precedent to the exercise by the Insurer and any Owner of any remedy under the Indenture; it being understood and intended that no one or more Owners shall have any right in any manner whatever by his or their action to enforce any right under the Indenture, except in the manner in the Indenture provided, and that all proceedings at law or in equity to enforce any provisions of the Indenture shall be instituted, had and maintained in the manner in the Indenture provided and for the equal benefit of all Owners of the Outstanding Bonds and the Insurer.

The right of any Owner of any Bond to receive payment of the principal of and interest and redemption premium (if any) on such Bond as in the Indenture provided, shall not be impaired or affected without the written consent of such Owner, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of the Indenture.

Non-waiver. Nothing in the Indenture or in any other provision of the Indenture or in the Bonds, shall affect or impair the obligation of the Successor Agency, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay

A-26

Page 97: cdiacdocs.sto.ca.govcdiacdocs.sto.ca.gov/2017-2938.pdf · NEW ISSUE-BOOK-ENTRY RATINGS: Insured: S& P: "AA" Underlying: S& P: "A-t'' See"Ratings" herein In the opinion of Norton Rose

from the Pledged Tax Revenues and other amounts pledged under the Indenture, the principal of and interest and redemption premium (if any) on the Bonds to the respective Owners on the respective Interest Payment Dates, as in the Indenture provided, or affect or impair the right of action, which is also absolute and unconditional, of the Owners to institute suit to enforce such payment by virtue of the contract embodied in the Bonds.

A waiver of any default by any Owner shall not affect any subsequent default or impair any rights or remedies on the subsequent default. No delay or omission of any Owner to exercise any right or power accruing upon any default shall impair any such right or power or shall be construed to be a waiver of any such default or an acquiescence therein, and every power and remedy conferred upon the Owners by the Health and Safety Code or by the Indenture may be enforced and exercised from time to time and as often as shall be deemed expedient by the Owners.

If a suit, action or proceeding to enforce any right or exercise any remedy shall be abandoned or determined adversely to the Owners, the Successor Agency and the Owners shall be restored to their former positions, rights and remedies as if such suit, action or proceeding had not been brought or taken.

Actions by Trustee as Attorney-in-Fact. Any suit, action or proceeding which any Owner shall have the right to bring to enforce any right or remedy under the Indenture may be brought by the Trustee for the equal benefit and protection of all Owners similarly situated and the Trustee is hereby appointed ( and the successive respective Owners by taking and holding the Bonds shall be conclusively deemed so to have appointed it) the true and lawful attorney-in-fact of the respective Owners for the purpose of bringing any such suit, action or proceeding and to do and perform any and all acts and things for and on behalf of the respective Owners as a class or classes, as may be necessary or advisable in the opinion of the Trustee as such attorney-in-fact, provided the Trustee shall have no duty or obligation to enforce any such right or remedy if it has not been indemnified to its satisfaction from loss, liability or any expense including, but not limited to reasonable fees and expenses of its attorneys.

Remedies Not Exclusive. No remedy in the Indenture conferred upon or reserved to the Owners is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy. Every such remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given under the Indenture or now or hereafter existing, at law or in equity by statute or otherwise, and may be exercised without exhausting and without regard to any other remedy conferred by the Health and Safety Code or any other law.

MISCELLANEOUS

Benefits Limited to Parties. Nothing in the Indenture expressed or implied is intended or shall be construed to confer upon, or to give or grant to, any person or entity, other than the Successor Agency, the Trustee, the Insurer and the registered Owners of the Bonds, any right, remedy or claim under or by reason of the Indenture or any covenant, condition or stipulation of the Indenture, and all covenants, stipulations, promises and agreements in the Indenture contained by and on behalf of the Successor Agency shall be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the Successor Agency, the Trustee, the Insurer and the registered Owners of the Bonds.

Successor is Deemed Included in All References to Predecessor. Whenever in the Indenture or any Supplemental Indenture either the Successor Agency or the Trustee is named or referred to, such reference shall be deemed to include the successors or assigns thereof, and all the covenants and agreements in the Indenture contained by or on behalf of the Successor Agency or the Trustee shall bind and inure to the benefit of the respective successors and assigns thereof whether so expressed or not.

Discharge of Indenture. If the Successor Agency shall pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on all Bonds or any portion thereof in any one or more of the following ways:

( i) by well and truly paying or causing to be paid the principal of and interest and premium (if any) on all Outstanding Bonds, including all principal, interest and redemption premiums, (if any), or;

(ii) by irrevocably depositing with the Trustee or escrow agent at or before maturity, money which, together with the available amounts then on deposit in the funds and accounts established pursuant to the Indenture, is fully sufficient to pay all Outstanding Bonds, including all principal, interest and redemption premiums (if any), or,

(iii) by irrevocably depositing with the Trustee or escrow agent, Defeasance Securities in such amount as an Independent Certified Public Accountant shall determine will, together with the interest to accrue thereon and available moneys then on deposit in the funds and accounts established pursuant to the Indenture, be fully sufficient to pay and discharge the indebtedness on all Bonds (including all principal, interest and redemption premiums, if any) at or before maturity, and if such Bonds are to be redeemed prior to the maturity thereof notice of such redemption shall have been given pursuant to the Indenture or provision satisfactory to the Trustee shall have been made for the giving of such notice then, at the election of the Successor Agency, and notwithstanding that any Bonds shall not have been surrendered for payment, the pledge of the Pledged Tax Revenues and other funds provided for in the Indenture and all other obligations of the Trustee and the Successor Agency under the Indenture with respect to all Outstanding Bonds shall cease and terminate, except only (a) the obligation of the Trustee to transfer and exchange Bonds under the Indenture and (b) the obligation of the Successor Agency to pay or cause to be paid to the Owners, from the amounts so deposited with the Trustee, all sums due thereon and to pay the Trustee all fees, expenses and costs of the Trustee. Notice of such election shall be filed with the Trustee. Any funds thereafter held by the Trustee, which are not required for said purpose, shall be paid over to the Successor Agency.

Execution of Documents and Proof of Ownership by Owners. Any request, declaration or other instrument which the Indenture may require or permit to be executed by any Owner may be in one or more instruments of similar tenor, and shall be executed by such Owner in person or by their attorneys appointed in writing.

Except as otherwise in the Indenture expressly provided, the fact and date of the execution by any Owner or his attorney of such request, declaration or other instrument, or of such writing appointing such attorney, may be proved by the certificate of any notary public or other officer authorized to take acknowledgments of deeds to be recorded in the state in which he purports to act, that the person signing such request, declaration or other instrument or writing acknowledged to him the execution thereof, or by an affidavit of a witness of such execution, duly sworn to before such notary public or other officer.

The ownership of Bonds and the amount, maturity, number and date of ownership thereof shall be provided by the Registration Books.

Any request, declaration or other instrument or writing of the Owner of any Bond shall bind all future Owners of such Bond in respect of anything done or suffered to be done by the Successor Agency or the Trustee in good faith and in accordance therewith.

Disqualified Bonds. In determining whether the Owners of the requisite aggregate principal amount of Bonds have concurred in any demand, request, direction, consent or waiver under the

A-28

Page 99: cdiacdocs.sto.ca.govcdiacdocs.sto.ca.gov/2017-2938.pdf · NEW ISSUE-BOOK-ENTRY RATINGS: Insured: S& P: "AA" Underlying: S& P: "A-t'' See"Ratings" herein In the opinion of Norton Rose

Indenture, Bonds which are owned or held by or for the account of the Successor Agency or the City (but excluding Bonds held in any employees' retirement fund) shall be disregarded and deemed not to be Outstanding for the purpose of any such determination, provided, however, that for the purpose of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such demand, request, direction, consent or waiver, only Bonds which the Trustee knows to be so owned or held shall be disregarded. Upon request of the Trustee, the Successor Agency shall specify in a certificate to the Trustee those Bonds disqualified pursuant to the Indenture and the Trustee may conclusively rely on such certificate.

Waiver of Personal Liability. No member, office, agent or employee of the Successor Agency shall be individually or personal liable for the payment of the principal of or interest or redemption premium (if any) on the Bonds; but nothing in the Indenture contained shall relieve any such member, officer, agent or employee from the performance of any official duty provided by law.

Payments Due on Other Than a Business Day. If the date for making any payment or the last date for performance of any act or the exercising of any right, as provided in the Indenture, is not a Business Day, such payment, with no interest accruing for the period from and after such nominal date, may be made or act performed or right exercised on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if done on the nominal date provided therefore in the Indenture.

BOND INSURANCE

Insurance Policy Requirements. So long as the Insurance Policy is in effect or amounts are owed to the Insurer, the following provisions shall govern, notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in the Indenture:

(a) Insurer Consents. The prior written consent of the Insurer shall be a condition precedent to the deposit of any Qualified Reserve Fund Credit Instrument provided in lieu of a cash deposit into the Reserve Fund. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in the Indenture, amounts on deposit in the Reserve Fund shall be applied solely to the payment of debt service due on the Bonds.

(b) Insurer as Sole Holder of Bonds. The Insurer shall be deemed to be the sole Owner of the Bonds for the purpose of exercising any voting right or privilege or giving any consent or direction or taking any other action that the Owners of the Bonds are entitled to take pursuant to the Indenture pertaining to (i) defaults and remedies and (ii) the duties and obligations of the Trustee. In furtherance thereof and as a term of the Indenture and each Bond, the Trustee and each Owner of the Bonds appoint the Insurer as their agent and attorney-in-fact with respect to the Bonds and agree that the Insurer may at any time during the continuation of any proceeding by or against the Successor Agency under the United States Bankruptcy Code or any other applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, rehabilitation or similar law ( an "Insolvency Proceeding") direct all matters relating to such Insolvency Proceeding, including without limitation, (A) all matters relating to any claim or enforcement proceeding in connection with an Insolvency Proceeding (a "Claim"), (B) the direction of any appeal of any order relating to any Claim, (C) the posting of any surety, supersedeas or performance bond pending any such appeal, and (D) the right to vote to accept or reject any plan of adjustment. In addition, the Trustee and each Owner of the Bonds delegate and assign to the Insurer, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the rights of the Trustee and each Owner of the Bonds with respect to the Bonds in the conduct of any Insolvency Proceeding, including, without limitation, all rights of any party to an adversary proceeding or action with respect to any court order issued in connection with any such Insolvency Proceeding. Remedies grated to Bondholders shall expressly include mandamus.

The maturity of Bonds shall not be accelerated without the consent of the Insurer and in the event the maturity of the Bonds is accelerated, the Insurer may elect, in its sole discretion, to pay accelerated

A-29

Page 100: cdiacdocs.sto.ca.govcdiacdocs.sto.ca.gov/2017-2938.pdf · NEW ISSUE-BOOK-ENTRY RATINGS: Insured: S& P: "AA" Underlying: S& P: "A-t'' See"Ratings" herein In the opinion of Norton Rose

principal and interest accrued, on such principal to the date of acceleration (to the extent unpaid by the Successor Agency) and the Trustee shall be required to accept such amounts. Upon payment of such accelerated principal and interest accrued to the acceleration date as provided above, the Insurer's obligations under the Insurance Policy with respect to such Bonds shall be fully discharged.

(c) Covenant Default Period. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary stated in the Indenture, no grace period for a covenant default under the Indenture shall exceed thirty (30) days or be extended for more than sixty (60) days, without the prior written consent of the Insurer. No grace period shall be permitted for payment defaults under the Indenture.

( d) Insurer as Third Party Beneficiary. The Insurer is explicitly recognized as being a third party beneficiary under the Indenture and may enforce any such right, remedy or claim conferred, given or granted under the Indenture.

( e) Selection of Bonds for Redemption. Upon the occurrence of an extraordinary optional, special or extraordinary mandatory redemption in part, the selection of the Bonds to be redeemed shall be subject to the approval of the Insurer. The exercise of any provision of the Indenture which permits the purchase of the Bonds in lieu of redemption shall require the prior written approval of the Insurer if any Bond so purchased is not cancelled upon purchase.

(f) Insurer Consent to Amendments. Any amendment, supplement, modification to, or waiver of, the Indenture, or any other transaction document, including any underlying security agreement ( each a "Related Document"), shall be subject to the prior written consent of the Insurer.

(g) Insurer's Right to Direct Actions. The rights granted to the Insurer under the Indenture to request, consent to or direct any action are rights granted to the Insurer in consideration of its issuance of the Insurance Policy. Any exercise by the Insurer of such rights is merely an exercise of the Insurer's contractual rights and shall not be construed or deemed to be taken for the benefit, or on behalf, of the Owners and such action does not evidence any position of the Insurer, affirmative or negative, as to whether the consent of the Owners or any other person is required in addition to the consent of the Insurer.

(h) Defeasance Securities. So long as the Insurance Policy is in effect, Defeasance Obligations shall mean only (1) cash, (2) non-callable direct obligations of the United States of America ("Treasuries"), (3) evidences of ownership of proportionate interests in future interest and principal payments on Treasuries held by a bank or trust company as custodian, under which the owner of the investment is the real party in interest and has the right to proceed directly and individually against the obligor and the underlying Treasuries are not available to any person claiming through the custodian or to whom the custodian may be obligated, (4) subject to the prior written consent of the Insurer, pre-refunded municipal obligations rated "AAA" and "Aaa" by S&P and Moody's, respectively, or (5) subject to the prior written consent of the Insurer, securities eligible for "AAA" defeasance under then-existing criteria of S&P or any combination thereof, shall be used to effect defeasance of the Bonds unless the Insurer otherwise approves. To accomplish defeasance of the Bonds, the Successor Agency shall cause to be delivered to the Insurer (i) a report of an independent firm of nationally recognized certified public accountants or such other accountant as shall be acceptable to the Insurer ("Accountant") verifying the sufficiency of the escrow established to pay the in full on the maturity or redemption date ("Verification"), (ii) an escrow deposit agreement or other written instructions to the Trustee (which shall be acceptable in form and substance to the Insurer) (iii) an opinion of nationally recognized bond counsel to the effect that the Bonds are no longer "Outstanding" under the Indenture and (iv) a certificate of discharge of the Trustee with respect to the Bonds; each Verification and defeasance opinion shall be acceptable in form and substance, and addressed, to the Successor Agency, Trustee and Insurer.

Insurer shall be provided with final drafts of the above-referenced documentation not less than five Business Days prior to the funding of the escrow. Bonds shall be deemed "Outstanding" under the Indenture unless and until they are in fact paid and retired or the above criteria are met.

(i) Amounts Paid by Insurer. Amounts paid by the Insurer under the Insurance Policy shall not be deemed paid for purposes of the Indenture and the Bonds relating to such payments shall remain Outstanding and continue to be due and owing until paid by the Successor Agency in accordance with the Indenture. The Indenture shall not be discharged unless all amounts due or to become due to the Insurer have been paid in full or duly provided for.

(j) Action to Preserve Pledge. Each of the Successor Agency and Trustee (to the extent directed in writing) covenant and agree to take such action (including, as applicable, filing of UCC fmancing statements with regard to the Successor Agency and continuations thereof) as is necessary from time to time to preserve the priority of the pledge of Pledged Tax Revenues pursuant to applicable law.

(k) Claims Upon the Insurance Policy and Payments by and to Insurer. If, on the third Business Day prior to the related scheduled interest payment date or principal payment date ("Payment Date") there is not on deposit with the Trustee, after making all transfers and deposits required under the Indenture, moneys sufficient to pay the principal of and interest on the Bonds due on such Payment Date, the Trustee shall give notice to the Insurer and to its designated agent (if any) (the "Insurer's Fiscal Agent") by telephone or telecopy of the amount of such deficiency by 12:00 noon, New York City time, on such Business Day. If, on the second Business Day prior to the related Payment Date, there continues to be a deficiency in the amount available to pay the principal of and interest on the Bonds due on such Payment Date, the Trustee shall make a claim under the Insurance Policy and give notice to the Insurer and the Insurer's Fiscal Agent (if any) by telephone of the amount of such deficiency, and the allocation of such deficiency between the amount required to pay interest on the Bonds and the amount required to pay principal of the Bonds, confirmed in writing to the Insurer and the Insurer's Fiscal Agent by 12:00 noon, New York City time, on such second Business Day by filling in the form of Notice of Claim and Certificate delivered with the Insurance Policy.

The Trustee shall designate any portion of payment of principal on the Bonds paid by the Insurer, whether by virtue of mandatory sinking fund redemption, maturity or other advancement of maturity, on its books as a reduction in the principal amount of Bonds registered to the then current Owner, whether DTC or its nominee or otherwise, and shall issue a replacement Bond to the Insurer, registered in the name of Assured Guaranty Municipal Corp., in a principal amount equal to the amount of principal so paid (without regard to authorized denominations); provided that the Trustee's failure to so designate any payment or issue any replacement Bond shall have no effect on the amount of principal or interest payable by the Successor Agency on any Bond or the subrogation rights of the Insurer.

The Trustee shall keep a complete and accurate record of all funds deposited by the Insurer into the Policy Payments Account (defmed below) and the allocation of such funds to payment of interest on and principal of any Bond. The Insurer shall have the right to inspect such records at reasonable times upon reasonable notice to the Trustee.

Upon payment of a claim under the Insurance Policy, the Trustee shall establish a separate special purpose trust account for the benefit of Owners referred to in the Indenture as the "Policy Payments Account" and over which the Trustee shall have exclusive control and sole right of withdrawal. The Trustee shall receive any amount paid under the Insurance Policy in trust on behalf of Owners and shall deposit any such amount in the Policy Payments Account and distribute such amount only for purposes of making the payments for which a claim was made. Such amounts shall be disbursed by the Trustee to Owners in the same manner as principal and interest payments are to be made with respect to the Bonds

under the sections hereof regarding payment of Bonds. It shall not be necessary for such payments to be made by checks or wire transfers separate from the check or wire transfer used to pay debt service with other funds available to make such payments. Notwithstanding anything in the Indenture to the contrary, the Successor Agency agrees to pay to the Insurer solely from Pledged Tax Revenues, (i) an amount equal to the total of all amounts paid by the Insurer under the Insurance Policy (the "Insurer Advances"); and (ii) an amount equal to the interest on such Insurer Advances from the date paid by the Insurer until payment thereof in full, payable to the Insurer at the Late Payment Rate per annum ( collectively, the "Insurer Reimbursement Amounts"). "Late Payment Rate" means the lesser of (a) the greater of (i) the per annum rate of interest, publicly announced from time to time by JPMorgan Chase Bank at its principal office in The City of New York, as its prime or base lending rate (any change in such rate of interest to be effective on the date such change is announced by JPMorgan Chase Bank) plus 3%, and (ii) the then applicable highest rate of interest on the Bonds and (b) the maximum rate permissible under applicable usury or similar laws limiting interest rates. The Late Payment Rate shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days. The Successor Agency hereby covenants and agrees that the Insurer Reimbursement Amounts are secured by a lien on and pledge of the Pledged Tax Revenues and payable from such Pledged Tax Revenues on a parity with debt service due on the Bonds.

Funds held in the Policy Payments Account shall not be invested by the Trustee and may not be applied to satisfy any costs, expenses or liabilities of the Trustee. Any funds remaining in the Policy Payments Account following a Bond Payment Date shall promptly be remitted to the Insurer.

The Successor Agency shall take all actions required by the Dissolution Act to ensure that all Insurer Reimbursement Amounts (including any amounts due the Insurer pursuant to items (m) or (n) below) are paid to the Insurer when due, including the submission of Recognized Obligation Payment Schedules providing for Insurer Reimbursement Amounts and such other amounts.

(I) Subrogation of Rights. The Insurer shall, to the extent it makes any payment of principal of or interest on the Bonds, become subrogated to the rights of the recipients of such payments in accordance with the terms of the Insurance Policy ( which subrogation rights shall also include the rights of any such recipients in connection with any Insolvency Proceeding). Each obligation of the Successor Agency to the Insurer under the Indenture shall survive discharge or termination of such Indenture.

(m) Reimbursement of Insurer. The Successor Agency shall pay or reimburse the Insurer any and all charges, fees, costs and expenses that the Insurer may reasonably pay or incur in connection with (i) the administration, enforcement, defense or preservation of any rights or security in the Indenture; (ii) the pursuit of any remedies under the Indenture or otherwise afforded by law or equity, (iii) any amendment, waiver or other action with respect to, or related to, the Indenture or any other Related Document whether or not executed or completed, or (iv) any litigation or other dispute in connection with the Indenture or the transactions contemplated thereby, other than costs resulting from the failure of the Insurer to honor its obligations under the Insurance Policy. The Insurer reserves the right to charge a reasonable fee as a condition to executing any amendment, waiver or consent proposed in respect of the Indenture.

(n) Application of Funds Upon Default. After payment of reasonable expenses of the Trustee, the application of funds realized upon default shall be applied to the payment of expenses of the Successor Agency or rebate only after the payment of past due and current debt service on the Bonds and amounts required to restore the Reserve Fund to the Reserve Requirement.

( o) Payment on the Bonds. The Insurer shall be entitled to pay principal or interest on the Bonds that shall become Due for Payment but shall be unpaid by reason of Nonpayment by the Successor Agency (as such terms are defined in the Insurance Policy), and any amounts due on the Bonds as a result

of acceleration of the maturity thereof in accordance with the Indenture, whether or not the Insurer has received a Notice of Nonpayment (as such terms are defined in the Insurance Policy) or a claim upon the Insurance Policy.

(p) Additional Bonds. Notwithstanding satisfaction of the other conditions to the issuance of additional bonds set forth in the Indenture, no such issuance may occur ( 1) if an Event of Default ( or any event which, once all notice or grace periods have passed, would constitute an Event of Default) exists unless such default shall be cured upon such issuance and (2) unless the Reserve Fund is fully funded at the Reserve Requirement (including the proposed issue) upon the issuance of such additional bonds, in either case unless otherwise permitted by the Insurer.

(q) Amendments. In determining whether any amendment, consent, waiver or other action to be taken, or any failure to take action, under the Indenture would adversely affect the security for the Bonds or the rights of the Owners, the Trustee shall consider the effect of any such amendment, consent, waiver, action or inaction as if there were no Insurance Policy.

(r) No Contract. No contract shall be entered into or any action taken by which the rights of the Insurer or security for or sources of payment of the Bonds may be impaired or prejudiced in any material respect except upon obtaining the prior written consent of the Insurer.

(s) Investment Agreements. The Insurer's prior written consent shall be required for Investment Agreements under the definition of Permitted Investments.

Reserve Policy Requirements. So long as the Reserve Policy is in effect, the following provisions shall govern, notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in the Indenture:

(a) The Successor Agency shall repay solely from Pledged Tax Revenues any draws under the Reserve Policy and pay all related reasonable expenses incurred by the Insurer and shall pay interest thereon from the date of payment by the Insurer at the Late Payment Rate. "Late Payment Rate" means the lesser of (x) the greater of (i) the per annum rate of interest, publicly announced from time to time by JPMorgan Chase Bank at its principal office in the City of New York, as its prime or base lending rate ("Prime Rate") ( any change in such Prime Rate to be effective on the date such change is announced by JPMorgan Chase Bank) plus 3%, and (ii) the then applicable highest rate of interest on the Bonds and (y) the maximum rate permissible under applicable usury or similar laws limiting interest rates. The Late Payment Rate shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days. In the event JPMorgan Chase Bank ceases to announce its Prime Rate publicly, Prime Rate shall be the publicly announced prime or base lending rate of such national bank as the Insurer shall specify. If the interest provisions of this subparagraph (a) shall result in an effective rate of interest which, for any period, exceeds the limit of the usury or any other laws applicable to the indebtedness created in the Indenture, then all sums in excess of those lawfully collectible as interest for the period in question shall, without further agreement or notice between or by any party hereto, be applied as additional interest for any later periods of time when amounts are outstanding under the Indenture to the extent that interest otherwise due under the Indenture for such periods plus such additional interest would not exceed the limit of the usury or such other laws, and any excess shall be applied upon principal immediately upon receipt of such moneys by the Insurer, with the same force and effect as if the Successor Agency had specifically designated such extra sums to be so applied and the Insurer had agreed to accept such extra payment(s) as additional interest for such later periods. In no event shall any agreed-to or actual exaction as consideration for the indebtedness created in the Indenture exceed the limits imposed or provided by the law applicable to this transaction for the use or detention of money or for forbearance in seeking its collection.

Repayment of draws and payment of expenses and accrued interest thereon at the Late Payment Rate ( collectively, "Reserve Policy Costs") from Pledged Tax Revenues shall commence in the first month following each draw, and each such monthly payment shall be in an amount at least equal to 1/12 of the aggregate of Policy Costs related to such draw.

The Successor Agency shall take all actions required by the Dissolution Act to ensure that Policy Costs are paid to the Insurer when due, including the submittal of Recognized Obligation Payment Schedules providing for Policy Costs that are payable to the Insurer.

Amounts in respect of Reserve Policy Costs paid to the Insurer shall be credited first to interest due, then to the expenses due and then to principal due. As and to the extent that payments are made to the Insurer on account of principal due, the coverage under the Reserve Policy will be increased by a like amount, subject to the terms of the Reserve Policy. The obligation to pay Reserve Policy Costs shall be secured by a valid lien on all Pledged Tax Revenues (subject only to the priority of payment provisions set forth under the Indenture).

All cash and investments in the Reserve Fund shall be transferred to the Interest Account, the Principal Account, and the Sinking Account for payment of debt service on the Bonds before any drawing may be made on the Reserve Policy or any other Qualified Reserve Fund Credit Instrument credited to the Reserve Fund in lieu of cash ("Credit Facility"). Payment of any Reserve Policy Costs shall be made prior to replenishment of any such cash amounts. Draws on all Credit Facilities (including the Reserve Policy) on which there is available coverage shall be made on a pro-rata basis ( calculated by reference to the coverage then available thereunder) after applying all available cash and investments in the Reserve Fund. Payment of Reserve Policy Costs and reimbursement of amounts with respect to other Credit Facilities shall be made on a pro-rata basis prior to replenishment of any cash drawn from the Reserve Fund. For the avoidance of doubt, "available coverage" means the coverage then available for disbursement pursuant to the terms of the applicable alternative credit instrument without regard to the legal or fmancial ability or willingness of the provider of such instrument to honor a claim or draw thereon or the failure of such provider to honor any such claim or draw.

(b) If the Successor Agency shall fail to pay any Reserve Policy Costs in accordance with the requirements of subparagraph (a) hereof, the Insurer shall be entitled to exercise any and all legal and equitable remedies available to it, including those provided under the Indenture other than (i) acceleration of the maturity of the Bonds or (ii) remedies which would adversely affect owners of the Bonds.

( c) The Indenture shall not be discharged until all Reserve Policy Costs owing to the Insurer shall have been paid in full. The Successor Agency's obligation to pay such amounts shall expressly survive payment in full of the Bonds.

(d) The Trustee shall ascertain the necessity for a claim upon the Reserve Policy in accordance with the provisions of subparagraph (a) of this Section and provide notice to the Insurer in accordance with the terms of the Reserve Policy at least five Business Days prior to each date upon which interest or principal is due on the Bonds. Where deposits are required to be made by the Successor Agency with the Trustee to the Interest Account, the Principal Account and the Sinking Account for the Bonds more often than semi-annually, the Trustee shall be instructed to give notice to the Insurer of any failure of the Successor Agency to make timely payment in full of such deposits within two Business Days of the date due.]

APPENDIX C

BOOK-ENTRY SYSTEM

The information in this APPENDIX C concerning The Depository Trust Company ("DTC"), Ne.v York, New York, and DTC's book-entry system has been obtained frorn DTC and the Successor Agency takes no responsibility for the completeness or accuracy thereof. The Successor Agency cannot and does not give any assurances that DTC, DTC Participants or Indirect Participants will distribute to the Beneficial owners (a) payments of interest, principal or preniurn, if any, with respect to the Bonds, (b) certificates representing o.vnership interest in or other confirmation or o.vnership interest in the Bonds, or (c) rederrption or other notices sent to DTC or Cede & Co., its noninee, as the registered o.vner of the Bonds, or that they will so do on a timely basis, or that DTC, DTC Participants or DTC Indirect Participants will act in the manner described in this Appendix. The current "Rules" applicable to DTC are on file with the Securities and Exchange Cornrnission and the current "Procedures" of DTC to be follo.ved in dealing with DTC Participants are on file with DTC.

The Depository Trust Company ("DTC"), Ne.v Yark, NY, wil I act as securities depository for the Bonds. The Bonds will be issued as fully,egistered 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,egistered certificate will be issued for each maturity of the Bonds, each in the aggregate principal 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 Ne.v Yark Banking Law, a "banking organization" within the meaning of the Ne.v Yark Banking Law, a member of the Federal Reserve System, a "clearing corporation" within the meaning of the Ne.v York Uniform Commercial Code, and a "clearing Successor Agency" registered pursuant to the prcwisions of Section 17A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. DTC holds and pro.tides asset servicing for ewer 3.5 nillion 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 arnong Direct Participants of sales and other securities transactions in deposited securities, through electronic computerized book­entry transfers and pledges between Direct Participants' accounts. This eliminates the need for physical rncwement of securities certificates. Direct Participants include both U.S. and non-U.S. securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, clearing corporations, and certain other organizations. DTC is a wholly-o.vned 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 o.vned 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. securities 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 a Standard & Poor's rating of AA+. The DTC Rules applicable to its Participants are on file with the Securities and Exchange Comnission. More information about DTC can be found at www.dtcc.com The information set forth on such website is not incorporated herein by reference.

Purchases of Bonds under the DTC system rnust be made by or through Direct Participants, which will receive a credit for the Bonds on DTC's records. The ownership interest of each actual purchaser of each Bond ("Beneficial Owner") is in turn to be recorded on the Direct and Indirect Participants' records. Beneficial Owners will not receive written confirmation from DTC of their purchase. B enefi ci al owners are, ho.vever, expected to receive written confi rmati ons pro.ti di ng detai Is of the transaction, 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 o.vnership interests in the

Bands are to be accorrpl i shed b,I entries made on the oooks of Direct and Indirect Participants acting on behalf of B enefi ci al owners. B enefi ci al owners wi 11 not receive certificates representi ng their cwnershi p interests in Bonds, except in the eventthat use of the oook--entry system forthe Bonds is discontinued.

To facilitate subsequent transfers, all Bonds deposited b,I Direct Participants with DTC are registered in the name of DTC's partnership nominee, Cede & Co., or such other name as may be requested b,I an authorized representative of DTC. The deposit of Bonds with DTC and their registration in the name of Cede & Co. or such other DTC nominee do not affect any change in beneficial cwnership. DTC has no kncwledge of the actual Beneficial owners of the Bonds; DTC's records reflect only the identity of the Direct Participants to whose accounts such Bonds are credited, which may or may not be the Beneficial owners. The Direct and Indirect Participants will remain responsible for keeping account of their holdings on behalf of their customers.

Conveyance of notices and other communications b,I DTC to Direct Participants, b,I Direct Participants to Indirect Participants, and b,I Direct Participants and Indirect Participants to Beneficial owners will be gcwerned b,I arrangements among them, suqject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time to time. Beneficial Owners of Bonds may wish to take certain steps to augment the transmission to them of notices of significant events with respect to the Bonds, such as redemptions, tenders, defaults, and proposed amendments to the Bond documents. For exarrple, B enefi ci al owners of B ands may wish to ascertain that the nominee holding the Bands for their benefit has agreed to obtain and transmit notices to Beneficial owners. In the alternative, Beneficial owners may wish to pro.ti de their names and addresses to the registrar and request that copies of notices be pro.tided directly to them.

Redemption notices shall be sentto DTC. If less than all of the Bonds within a maturity are being redeemed, DTC's practice is to determine by lot the amount of the interest of each Direct Participant in such maturity to be redeemed.

Neither DTC nor Cede & Co. (nor any other DTC noni nee) wi II consent or vote with respect to 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 Successor Agency 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 Bonds are credited on the record date (identified in a listing attached to the Omnibus Proxy).

Principal, premium (if any), and interest payments on the Bonds will be made to Cede & Co., or such other nominee as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. DTC's practice is to credit Direct Participants' accounts upon DTC's receipt of funds and corresponding detail information from the Successor Agency or the Trustee, 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 held for the accounts of customers in bearer form or registered in "street name," and wi 11 be the responsi bi I ity of such Participant and not of DTC, the Trustee, or the Successor Agency, suqject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time to time. Principal, premium (if any), and interest payments with respect to the Bonds to Cede & Co. (or such other noninee as may be requested b,I an authorized representative of DTC) is the responsibility of the Successor Agency or the Trustee, 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 pr0.tiding its services as depository with respect to the Bonds at any time b,I giving reasonable notice to the Successor Agency or the Trustee. Under such circumstances, in the event that a successor depository is not obtained, certificates representing the Bonds are required to be printed and delivered.

The Successor Agency may decide to discontinue use of the system of oook--entry--only transfers through DTC (or a successor securities depository). In that event, representing the Bonds will be printed and delivered to DTC in accordance with the prcwisions of the Indenture.

The information in this section concerning DTC and DTC's book-entry system has been obtained from sources that the Successor Agency believes to be reliable, but the Successor Agency takes no responsi bi I ity for the accuracy thereof.

Honorable Mayor and City Council

Guadalup.,, California

Raport on the Financial Statements

Independents Audlton' Rapon

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the governmental activities, the business-type activities,

each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City of Guadalupe, California, (the City) as of

and for the year ended June 30, 2016, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise

the City's basic financial statements as listed in the table of contents.

M1n1111ml!lllt's Responsibility for the financial Statements

Manag .. ment is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with

accounting principles g"nerally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and

maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free

from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditors' Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit

in accordance with auditing standards g,.n,.rally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable

to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United

States. Those standards requir., that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether

the financial statements are free of material misstatement

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial

statements. The procedures selected d.,pend on the auditor's judgment, including the assessment of the risks of

material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments,

the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity's preparation and fair presentation of the financial

statements in order to desi1n audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of

expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity's internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of

significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial

statements.

Honorable Mayor and City Council

City of Guadalupe

Page 2

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit

opinions.

Opinions

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the respective

financial position of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate

remaining fund information of the City of Guadalupe as of June 30, 2016, and the changes in financial position and,

where applicable, cash flows thereof for the year then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally

accepted in the United States of America.

Emphasis of Matter Regarding Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the City will continue as a going concern. As

discussed in Note 19 to the financial statements, the City has experienced decreased revenues and key budgeted revenue

sources are unknown. Management projects continued budget shortfalls unless significant cost reduction or other

measures are taken. The City has borrowed from other funds to reduce the negative cash balance and sustain its basic

operations. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the City's ability to continue as a going concern.

Management's plans regarding those matters are described in Note 19. The financial statements do not include any

adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this

matter.

Other Matters

Required Supplementary Information

Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that management's discussion and

analysis and budgetary comparison information as listed in the table of contents, be presented to supplement the

basic financial statements. Such information, although not a part of the basic financial statements, is required by the

Governmental Accounting Standards Board, who considers it to be an essential part of the financial reporting for

placing the basic financial statements in an appropriate operational, economic, or historical context. We have applied

certain limited procedures to the required supplementary information in accordance with auditing standards generally

accepted in the United States of America, which consisted of inquiries of management about the methods of

preparing the information and comparing the information for consistency with management's responses to our

inquiries, the basic financial statements, and other knowledge we obtained during our audit of the basic financial

statements. We do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on the information because the limited

procedures do not provide us with sufficient evidence to express an opinion or provide any assurance.

Other Information

Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that collectively comprise the

City of Guadalupe's basic financial statements. The combining and individual nonmajor fund financial statements are

presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements.

Honorable Mayor and City Council

Pa1e3

The combining and individual nonmajor fund financial statements are the responsibility of management and were

derived from and relate directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial

statements, Such information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial

statements and certain additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling such information directly to the

underlying accounting am! other records used to prepare the basic financial statements or to the basic financial

statements themselves, and other additional procedures in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the

United States of America, In our opinion, the combining and individual nonmajor fund financial statements are fairly

stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements as a whole,

In accordance with Govrmment Auditing Stnndords, we have also issued our report dated February 28, 2017, on our

consideration of the aty of Guadalupe's internal control over financial reporting and on our tests of its compliance

with certain pro.,;sioni of laws, regulations, contracts and grant agreements and other matters, The purpose of that

report is to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over financial reporting and compliance and the

results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the internal control over financial reports or compliance, That

report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the a~:~~z;:·~ rom''"""

statements. Comparisons between this year and the prior year are presented showing percentage changes.

FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS

• In FY 2015-16 construction commenced for five model homes and sixteen residential homes for the Pasadera

development within the City. The "Pasadera Development" will include approximately 800 homes and

approximately 250,000 square feet of commercial space. Project build out is estimated to occur within 10 to

15 years.

• In FY 2015-16 the City received grant funding through Prop 1B and FTA 5311 to purchase a new transit bus for

residents that travel between Santa Maria and Guadalupe. In addition, in August 2015, through the support

of the Santa Barbara County Association of Governments, the City's transit provider, SMOOTH, and other

North County Cities, Guadalupe received a grant from the Low Carbon Transit Operations Program. This

grant enabled the City to expand Saturday transit service and initiate Sunday service to its residents.

• In FY 2015-16 the City began work on the Tognazzini Inter-tie Project funded by a USDA grant. This project

will enable the City to have an additional well online to provide water extraction from the Santa Maria Valley

Groundwater Basin. This project will also ensure a back-up water source in the event State water is not

available.

• The City's total net position increased by $607 thousand in 2016. The net position of governmental activities

increased $203 thousand and the net position of business-type activities increased $404 thousand.

• As of the close of the current fiscal year, the City's governmental funds reported combined ending fund

balances of $2 million.

City of Guadalupe Management's Discussion and Analysis Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2016

OVERVIEW OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The City's Annual Financial Report consists of four main components: (1) management's discussion and analysis,

(2) the basic financial statements, (3) required supplementary information, and (4) combining fund financial

statements. The basic financial statements include two kinds of statements that present different views of the City,

the government-wide and the fund financial statements.

• The government-wide financial statements provide both long-term and short-term information about the

City's overall financial status.

• The fund financial statements focus on individual parts of the City government, reporting the City's

operations in more detail than the government-wide statements.

The basic financial statements also include notes that provide additional information essential to understanding the

data contained in the government-wide and fund financial statements.

Government-Wide Financial Statements

The government-wide statements report information about the City as a whole using accounting methods similar to

those used by private sector companies. The statement of net position includes all of the City's assets and liabilities,

as well as any deferred outflows or inflows of resources. The statement of activities includes all current year revenues

and expenses regardless of when cash is received or paid. Over time, increases or decreases in net position may serve

as a useful indicator of whether the financial health of the City is improving or declining.

The government-wide financial statements of the City are divided as follows:

• Governmental activities - Most of the City's basic services are included here, such as police, fire, public works,

community development, parks and recreation and general government.

• Business-type activities-Certain services provided by the City are funded by customer fees. Among these are

water and sewer services, solid waste and transit services.

Fund Financial Statements

A fund is a group of related accounts that is used to maintain control over resources that have been segregated for

specific activities or objectives. Fund financial statements provide more detailed information about the City's largest

funds, not the City as a whole. The City has 30 funds that are considered governmental, four funds that are

considered proprietary, and one fund that is considered fiduciary.

City of Guadalupe Management's Discussion and Analysis Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2016

OVERVIEW OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - continued

The City has three types of fund financial statements:

Governmental funds - Governmental funds tell how general government services such as police, fire and public works

were financed in the short-term as well as what remains for future spending. Most of the City's basic services are

included in governmental funds, which focus on (1) short-term inflows and outflows of spendable resources, and

(2) the remaining year-end balances available for spending. Because this information does not encompass the

additional long-term focus of the government-wide statements, reconciliations that explain the relationship (or

differences) between governmental funds and governmental activities follow the governmental funds statements.

Additional information regarding the City's ability to continue as a going concern is available in Note 19 of the

Financial Statements.

Proprietary Funds - Services for which customer fees are intended to finance the costs of operations are generally

reported in proprietary funds. Proprietary fund statements, like the government wide statements, provide short-term

and long term financial information about the activities of the City that operate as businesses, such as water and

sewer services.

Fiduciary Funds- Fiduciary Fund statements provide information about the financial relationships in which the City

acts solely as a trustee or agent for the benefit of others, to whom the resources belong. The City elected to serve as

the successor agency for its former redevelopment agency which was dissolved by state law. The successor agency

activity is accounted for in a private purpose trust fund.

The City is responsible for ensuring that the assets reported in these funds are used for their intended purposes. All of

the City's fiduciary activities are reported in a separate statement of fiduciary net position and a statement of changes

in fiduciary net position. We exclude these activities from the City's government-wide financial statements because

the City cannot use these resources to finance operations.

Notes to the Basic Financial Statements

The notes provide additional information that is essential to a full understanding of the data provided in the

government-wide and fund financial statements.

City of Guadalupe Management's Discussion and Analysis Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2016

FINANCIAL ANALYSIS OF THE GOVERNMENT WIDE STATEMENTS - continued

Analysis of the changes in net position:

Total government-wide revenues of the primary government increased $996 thousand, a 14% increase from the prior

year, and total expenses increased $109 thousand, a 1% increase. These changes are discussed in more detail below.

Governmental Activities:

Total revenues for governmental activities increased $273 thousand from the prior year. Total expenses increased

$62 thousand and transfers increased $8 thousand from the prior year. Transfers consist of indirect cost allocations

from the General Fund to the various funds that utilize indirect administrative services. Indirect cost allocations are

based on operating budget, full-time equivalent staffing and assigned space.

Revenue

Sales tax increased $174 thousand primarily due to the local tax measure approved by the voters in November of

2014. The full effect of the measure took place in fiscal year 2015-16.

Utility user tax increased $75 thousand primarily due to the utility user tax measure approved by the voters in

November of 2014. The full effect of the measure took place in fiscal year 2015-16.

Licenses and permits increased $351 thousand; of which 78% of the increase was due to the business license tax

measure approved by voters in November of 2014. The remaining 22% increase was due to permit fees associated

with the Pasadera development that broke ground in February of 2015.

Other revenues decreased $271 thousand mainly due to the Legion Hall retrofit for $200,000 in the prior year and a

$50 thousand reduction of the Chevron contribution.

Expenses

Public safety increased $249 thousand of which 74% of the increase was due to capital lease purchases for police

vehicles. The remaining 26% increase was due to the increased costs for workers' compensation expense.

Community Development expenses decreased $149 thousand due primarily to the prior year grant work done for the

seismic retrofit completed at the Legion Hall and the prior year work done for the Safe Routes to School grant.

Business-Type Activities:

Total revenues for business-type activities increased $724 thousand from the prior year, a 19% increase. Total

expenses increased $47 thousand and transfers increased $8 thousand.

City of Guadalupe Management's Discussion and Analysis Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2016

FINANCIAL ANALYSIS OF THE GOVERNMENT WIDE STATEMENTS - continued

Business-Type Activities-continued

Revenue

Charges for services increased by $142 thousand primarily due to the increase in wastewater and solid waste rates

effective June 1, 2015. Operating grants and contributions increased $512 thousand mainly due to a bus purchase for

the Transit Fund. Other revenues increased $68 thousand mainly due to impact fees received from the Pasadera

development.

Expenses

Water fund expenses increased $107 thousand mainly due to a 6% increase in Central Coast Water Authority annual

payments over prior year of $52 thousand plus a GASB 68 pension entry of $53 thousand. Wastewater fund expenses

increased $37 thousand mainly due to a GASB 68 pension entry. Solid Waste expenses decreased $80 thousand

mainly due to the timing of solid waste contract services. Transit fund expenses decreased $16 thousand mainly due

to an asset that was fully depreciated in fiscal year 14-15.

FINANCIAL ANALYSIS OF THE FUND STATEMENTS

The City uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with finance-related legal requirements. The

fund financial statements focus on individual parts of City Government, reporting City operations in more detail than

the government-wide statements.

Governmental Funds:

The focus of the City's governmental funds is to provide information on near-term inflows, outflows and balances of

spendable resources. Total fund balance for governmental funds increased by $470 thousand during fiscal year 2016.

Total revenues for governmental funds increased $267 thousand, total expenditures for governmental funds increased

$382 thousand and net other financing sources increased $195 thousand. Reasons for these changes are discussed in

more detail below.

General Fund

Total General Fund revenues increased $565 thousand in the current year primarily due to the three tax measures

approved by voters in November 2014 that based business license fees on gross receipts, removed the cap on utility

user tax and added a .25% local sales tax. Business license revenues increased $273 thousand, local sales tax

increased $98 thousand and utility user tax increased $75 thousand. Property tax increased $82 thousand and sales

tax increased $75 thousand due to the Pasadera development and a recovering economy.

City of Guadalupe Management's Discussion and Analysis Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2016

FINANCIAL ANALYSIS OF THE FUND STATEMENTS - continued

Total General Fund expenditures increased $449 thousand this year. This is mainly due to the reduction of furlough

days in 15-16 as well as increased consultant fees due to the Pasadera development and the establishment of capital

lease balances for police vehicles.

Total other financing sources for the General Fund increased $222 thousand primarily due to the establishment of

capital lease balances for police vehicles.

Measure A

Revenues for Measure A were in line with prior year. Expenditures increased $47 thousand mainly due to the

reduction of furlough days in 15-16 and street payroll re-classed to Measure A in FY 15-16.

Other Governmental Funds

Total other governmental funds revenues decreased $299 thousand. This is primarily due to prior year grants that

were not repeated in FY 15-16. Total other government fund expenditures decreased $114 thousand due to street

maintenance payroll re-classed to Measure A in FY 15-16.

Enterprise Funds:

The City's four enterprise funds provide the same type of information found in the government-wide financial

statements, but in more detail. Total operating revenues increased by $722 thousand. Total operating expenses

increased by $41 thousand or 1% over prior year. Total net non-operating revenues and expenses increased $11

thousand. The discussion below provides a detailed explanation for each business-type fund.

Water Fund

Water fund operating revenues decreased $82 thousand compared to the prior year. The decrease resulted from

decreased water usage due to water conservation efforts by city residents. Operating expenses in the current year

increased $104 thousand due to a reduction of furlough days as well as a 6% increase in Central Coast Water Authority

annual payments over prior year. Total net non-operating revenues and expenses increased $19 thousand due

primarily to the transfers for indirect costs to the general fund.

City of Guadalupe Management's Discussion and Analysis Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2016

FINANCIAL ANALYSIS OF THE FUND STATEMENTS - continued

Wastewater Fund

Wastewater fund revenue increased $290 thousand compared to the prior year due to a 30% wastewater rate

increase effective June 1, 2015. Operating expenses decreased $20 thousand primarily due to the prior year Truss Pro

sewer line break, which cost $64 thousand to repair, offset by an increase to personnel services of $42 thousand due

to the reduction of furlough days. Total net non-operating revenues and expenses decreased $8 thousand due

primarily to the reduction of operating transfers out.

Solid Waste Fund

Solid Waste revenue increased $7 thousand. Operating expenses decreased $80 thousand due primarily to the timing

of solid waste contract services.

Transit Fund

Transit fund revenue increased $507 thousand compared to the prior year primarily due to grants received for the

purchase of a new bus and expanded weekend bus service. Operating expenses increased $38 thousand primarily due

to the expenditures for expanded weekend bus service.

Fiduciary Funds:

The City has one Fiduciary Fund which is used to account for resources held for the benefit of parties outside the

government and is not reflected in the government wide financials because the resources of those funds are not

available to support City programs. The accounting used for fiduciary funds is presented with the fund financials

statements in the supplemental information section.

GENERAL FUND BUDGETARY HIGHLIGHTS

A detailed budgetary comparison schedule for the year ended June 30, 2016 is presented as required supplementary

information following the notes to the financial statements. The final budget amounts (which are the focus of this

discussion and accompanying financial statements) are different from those presented in the 2015-16 Budget

Document. This is due to changes that occurred between when the Preliminary Budget was prepared and year-end

final budget approvals.

The following summarizes the original and final budget compared with actual results for 2015-16:

Original Final

General Fund Budget Budget Actual Variance

Revenues $ 3,123,710 $ 2,934,710 $ 2,881,545 $ (53,165) Expenditures (3,715,532) (3,556,034) (3,717,739) (161,705) Other Financing Sources 593,200 593,200 767,535 174,335

Change in fund balances 1,378 (28,124) (68,659) (40,535)

Fund balance -beginning of year (670,768) (670,768) (670,768)

Fund balance (deficit)-end of year $ (669,390) $ (698,892) $ (739,427) $ (40,535)

Overall, the ending actual fund balance is a deficit of $739 thousand, which is $41 thousand more than the final

budget estimate. The net increase results from a variety of adjustments; the key changes are summarized as follows:

• Revenues were $53 thousand lower than estimated primarily due to administrative overhead budgeted at

$24 thousand more than was actually received; and surplus sales of $15 thousand budgeted for but not

received.

• Expenditures were $162 thousand higher than estimated primarily due to capital lease purchases for police

vehicles.

• Other financing sources received were $174 thousand higher than estimated mainly due to capital lease

purchases for police vehicles.

City of Guadalupe Management's Discussion and Analysis Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2016

On June 14, 2016 the Council adopted the fiscal year 2016-17 budget (Resolution No. 2016-34). The General Fund

portion of that budget contains a balanced budget.

Fiscal Outlook. In FY 2015-16 the City received the full impact of sustainable revenues for the three measures that

voters approved in November 2014. The measures included a quarter-cent sales tax increase, removal of the City's

utility users' tax cap, and a policy change to calculate annual business licenses based on gross receipts. The Pasadera

Development (formally DJ Farms) added twenty one homes during the fiscal year and is expected to add twenty five to

fifty homes annually over the next ten to fifteen years. During build-out, Pasadera will drive increased building permit

revenue for the General Fund. Pasadera will also increase the property tax base. Once built, the shopping center in

Pasadera will lead to increased sales tax receipts. The 2015-16 increase in fund deficit in the General Fund was $69

thousand for 2016 activity. In 2016-17 the General Fund current year activity is projected to be breakeven. The City

continues to look for sustainable revenue opportunities.

CITY OF GUADALUPE ACTIVITIES

The City of Guadalupe utilizes grants as much as possible to carry out capital projects. Significant success has been

achieved through this process. In conjunction with grants, the city seeks low interest loans when available.

Infrastructure improvements continue to be a high priority. A continued focus for the future is improvements to the

wastewater collection and water distribution systems. Measure A and Gas Tax funding is used for street maintenance

projects. In FY 2015-16 the City continued work on the Tognazzini inter-tie line to add a back-up water source for the

City.

revenue. The donated capital asset resulting in program revenue was:

Debt service: In governmental funds, repayments of long-term liabilities

are recognized as expenditures. In the statement of activities, repayments

of long-term liabilities are reported as reductions of liabilities. Expenditures

for repayment of the principal portion of long-term liabilities were:

Capital leases: The amount financed by new capital leases is reported as an

other financing source in the governmental funds, but the amount financed

constitutes long-term liabilities in the statement of net assets. Other

financing sources from proceeds from capital leases were:

Compensated absences: In governmental funds, compensated absences

are measured by the amounts paid during the period. In the statement of

activities, compensated absences are measured by the amounts earned.

The differences between compensated absences paid and compensated

absences earned was:

Insurance loan payable: In governmental funds, insurance expenses are

measured by the amounts paid during the period. In the statement of

activities, the long-term insurance loan payable activity is reported as

increases and decreases of the liability.

Note 1: The Reporting Entity

City of Guadalupe

Notes to Financial Statements

June 30, 2016

The City of Guadalupe (the City) was incorporated on August 3, 1946. The City is a general law city under the laws of

the State of California and operates under a Council-Administrator form of government. The City provides the

following services: public safety (police and fire), construction and maintenance of highways and streets, sanitation,

culture and recreation, public improvements, planning, zoning and general administration. Enterprise funds, operated

in a manner similar to a private business, include water, wastewater, solid waste, and transit.

The City has defined its reporting entity in accordance with the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB)

Statement No. 14, amended by GASB Statements No. 39 and 61. These statements provide guidance for determining

which organizations, functions and activities of a government should be included in the general purpose financial

statements.

The criteria for inclusion in the basic financial statements are generally based upon the ability of the City to exercise

oversight responsibility over such organizations, functions and activities. Oversight responsibility is generally defined

as the existence of financial interdependency and/or the ability to appoint governing boards, to designate

management, to significantly influence operations, to approve operating budgets or to control day-to-day activities.

The accompanying financial statements include all activities and reporting entities over which the City exercises

oversight responsibility. Effective January 31, 2012, the Community Redevelopment Agency of the City of Guadalupe

(the Agency) was dissolved through the Supreme Court decision on Assembly Bill 1X26. This action impacted the

reporting entity of the City that previously had reported the Agency as a blended component unit. See Note 14 for

additional information on the dissolution and reporting of the Agency as a Private Purpose Trust Fund.

In determining the financial reporting entity for the City of Guadalupe, the following governmental unit has met the

criteria for inclusion in the City's financial statements.

Guadalupe Public Financing Authority

The Guadalupe Public Financing Authority (the Authority) was established in 2000, and is a separate government

entity under the laws of the State of California. The purpose of the Authority is to provide financing for the

construction and acquisition of selected City facilities. The City Council of the City of Guadalupe and the Board of

Directors of the Authority are legally separate boards; however, they share a common membership. Activities of the

Authority are accounted for in the applicable City governmental or enterprise funds. Separate financial statements

are not prepared for the Authority, as it is included in the accompanying financial statements as a blended component

unit.

Other Governmental Agencies

Other governmental agencies provide various levels of services to residents of the City, either entirely or partially. The

entities include, but are not limited to, the State of California, the County of Santa Barbara, as well as several school

districts. Each of these agencies has an independently elected governing board or is dependent on an independently

elected governing board other than the City Council of the City of Guadalupe.

The City has no ability to appoint or control the management of any of these entities and is not responsible for any

operating losses or debts incurred. As a result of the above analysis, financial information for these agencies is not

included within the scope of this report.

Note 2: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The accounting policies of the City conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of

America as applied to governmental agencies. The following summary of the City's more significant accounting

policies is presented to assist the reader in interpreting the financial statements and other data in this report. These

policies should be viewed as an integral part of the accompanying financial statements.

Basis of Presentation

The City's basic financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the

United States of America. The GASB is the acknowledged standard setting body for establishing accounting and

financial reporting standards followed by governmental entities in the United States of America.

Government-Wide and Fund Financial Statements

The government-wide financial statements (i.e., the statement of net position and the statement of activities) report

information on the primary government and its blended component units. The effect of interfund activity has been

removed from these statements. Governmental activities, which normally are supported by taxes and

intergovernmental revenues, are reported separately from business-type activities, which rely to a significant extent

on fees and charges for support.

The statement of activities demonstrates the degree to which the direct expenses of a given function or segment are

offset by program revenues. Direct expenses are those that are clearly identifiable with a specific function or

segment. Program revenues include 1) charges to customers or applicants who purchase, use, or directly benefit from

goods, services, or privileges provided by a given function or segment and 2) grants and contributions that are

restricted to meeting the operational or capital requirements of a particular function or segment. Taxes and other

items not properly included among program revenues are reported instead as general revenues.

Note 2: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

Separate financial statements are provided for governmental funds and proprietary funds. Major individual

governmental funds and major individual proprietary funds are reported as separate columns in the fund financial

statements.

Major Funds

GASB Statement No. 34 defines major funds and requires that the City's major governmental funds are identified and

presented separately in the fund financial statements. All other funds, called non-major funds, are combined and

reported in a single column, regardless of their fund type.

Major funds are defined as funds that have either assets, liabilities, revenues, or expenditures/expenses equal to ten

percent of their fund-type total. The General Fund is always a major fund. The City may also select other funds it

believes should be presented as major funds.

The City reported the following major governmental funds in the accompanying financial statements:

General Fund: This fund accounts for all financial resources except those to be accounted for in another fund. It is the

general operating fund of the City.

Measure A Fund: This fund accounts for the activities associated with maintaining, improving or constructing

roadways, bridges and bicycle and pedestrian bridges, safe routes to school improvements, storm damage repair for

transportation facilities, roadway drainage facilities, and landscaping maintenance.

The City reported the following major proprietary funds in the accompanying financial statements:

Water Fund: This enterprise fund accounts for the operation of the City's water utility, a self-supporting activity,

which renders a service on a user charge basis to residents and businesses.

Wastewater Treatment Fund: This enterprise fund accounts for the operations of the City's wastewater treatment

plant. The fund accounts for the operation of the City's sewer utility, a self-supporting activity, which renders a

service on a user charge basis to residents and businesses.

Solid Waste Fund: This enterprise fund accounts for the operations of the City's solid waste collection and disposal

services, a self-supporting activity, which renders service on a user charge basis to residents and businesses.

Transit Fund: This enterprise fund accounts for the operations of the City's transit service within the City and

surrounding areas.

Basis of Accounting

The government-wide and proprietary fund financial statements are reported using the economic resources

measurement focus and the full accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are recorded when earned and expenses are

recorded at the time liabilities are incurred, regardless of when the related cash flows take place.

Governmental funds are reported using the current financial resources measurement focus and the modified accrual

basis of accounting. Under this method, revenues are recognized when measurable and available. The City considers

all revenues reported in the governmental funds to be available if the revenues are collected within sixty days after

fiscal year-end. Expenditures are recorded when the related fund liability is incurred, except for principal and interest

on long-term debt, claims and judgments, and compensated absences, which are recognized as expenditures to the

extent that they have matured. Capital asset acquisitions are reported as expenditures in governmental funds.

Proceeds of long-term debt and acquisitions under capital leases are reported as other financing sources.

Non-exchange transactions, in which the City gives or receives value without directly receiving or giving equal value in

exchange, include property taxes, grants, entitlements, and donations. On an accrual basis, revenues from property

taxes are recognized in the fiscal year for which the taxes are levied. Revenue from grants, entitlements, and

donations are recognized in the fiscal year in which all eligibility requirements have been satisfied.

Other revenues susceptible to accrual include other taxes, intergovernmental revenues, interest, and charges for

services.

Grant revenues are recognized in the fiscal year in which all eligibility requirements are met. Under the terms of grant

agreements, the City may fund certain programs with a combination of cost-reimbursement grants, categorical block

grants, and general revenues. Thus, both restricted and unrestricted net position may be available to finance program

expenditures/expenses. The City's policy is to first apply restricted grant resources to such programs, followed by

general revenues if necessary.

Proprietary funds distinguish operating revenues and expenses from nonoperating items. Operating revenues and

expenses generally result from providing services and producing and delivering goods in connection with a proprietary

fund's principal ongoing operations. The principal operating revenues of the enterprise funds are charges to

customers for sales and services, administrative expenses, and depreciation on capital assets. All revenues and

expenses not meeting this definition are reported as nonoperating revenues and expenses.

Note 2: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

Fiduciary funds include a private purpose trust fund and an agency fund. The private purpose trust fund accounts for

the assets and liabilities of the former Redevelopment Agency. The agency fund is used to account for funds held by

the City for specified purpose that do not belong to the City. The fiduciary funds are accounted for on the accrual

basis of accounting.

Budgetary Information

Annual budgets are adopted on a basis consistent with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States

of America for all governmental funds. After adoption of the final budget, transfers of appropriations within a General

Fund department, or within other funds, can be made by the City Administrator. Budget modifications between funds

and increases or decreases to a fund's overall budget, must be approved by the City Council. Numerous properly

authorized amendments were made during the fiscal year.

Budgetary control is enhanced by integrating the budget into the general ledger accounts. Encumbrance accounting is

employed (e.g., purchase orders) to avoid expenditures over budget. Encumbrances outstanding at fiscal year-end are

automatically re-budgeted in the following fiscal year.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the City considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three

months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The proprietary funds' "deposits" in the City-wide cash

management pool are, in substance, demand deposits and are, therefore, considered cash equivalents for purposes of

the statement of cash flows.

Receivables and Payables

Activity between funds that are representative of lending/borrowing arrangements outstanding at the end of the fiscal

year are referred to as "due to/from other funds".

All trade and property tax receivables are shown net of any allowance for uncollectible accounts. The allowance for

uncollectible accounts was $18,541 as of June 30, 2016.

Property Taxes

California Constitution Article XIII A limits the combined property tax rate to one percent of a property's assessed

valuation. Additional taxes may be imposed with voter approval. Assessed value is calculated at one hundred percent

of a property's fair value, as defined by Article XIII A, and may be increased no more than two percent per year unless

a change in ownership occurs. The state legislature has determined the method of distributing the one percent tax

levy among the various taxing jurisdictions.

Property tax revenues are recognized in the fiscal year for which taxes have been levied, and collected within sixty

days of fiscal year-end. Property tax assessment and collection is administered by the County of Santa Barbara.

Property taxes are billed and collected as follows:

Secured Unsecured

Valuation/Lien Date(s) January 1 January 1

Levy Date(s) September 1 January 1

Due Date(s) November 1 (50%) Upon Billing

February 1 (50%)

Delinquency Date(s) December 10 (Nov.) August 31

April 10 (Feb.)

Capital Assets

All capital assets are valued at historical cost or estimated historical cost if actual historical cost is not available.

Contributed capital assets are valued at their estimated fair value on the date contributed. The City's policy is to

capitalize all capital assets with costs exceeding $2,500 and with useful lives exceeding one year.

With the implementation of GASB Statement No. 34, the City has recorded all its public domain (infrastructure) capital

assets, which include roads, bridges, curbs and gutters, streets and sidewalks, drainage systems, and lighting systems.

The purpose of depreciation is to spread the cost of capital assets equitably among all users over the life of these

assets. The amount charged to depreciation expense each fiscal year represents that fiscal year's pro rata share of the

cost of capital assets. GASB Statement No. 34 requires that all capital assets with limited useful lives be depreciated

over their estimated useful lives. Depreciation is provided using the straight line method which means the cost of the

asset is divided by its expected useful life in years and the result is charged to expense each fiscal year until the asset is

fully depreciated. The City has assigned the useful lives listed below to capital assets.

Note 2: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

Compensated Absences

In compliance with GASB Statement No. 16, the City has established a liability for accrued sick leave and vacation in

relevant funds. For governmental funds, the current liability appears in the respective funds. All vacation paid is

accrued when incurred in the government-wide and proprietary funds financial statements. This liability is set up for

the current employees at the current rates of pay. If sick leave and vacation are not used by the employee during the

term of employment, compensation is payable to the employee at the time of retirement. Such compensation is

calculated at the employee's prevailing rate at the time of retirement or termination. Each fiscal year, an adjustment

to the liability is made based on pay rate changes and adjustments for the current portion. The General Fund is

primarily responsible for the repayment of the governmental portion of compensated absences.

Pensions and Net Pension Liability

The City recognizes a net pension liability, which represents the City's proportionate share of the excess of the total

pension liability over the fiduciary net position of the pension reflected in the actuarial reports provided by the

California Public Employees' Retirement System (Cal PERS) plans (Plans). The net pension liability is measured as of the

City's prior fiscal year-end. Changes in the net pension liability are recorded, in the period incurred, as pension

expense or as deferred inflows of resources or deferred outflows of resources depending on the nature of the change.

The changes in the net pension liability that are recorded as deferred inflows of resources or deferred outflows of

resources (that arise from changes in actuarial assumptions or other inputs and differences between expected or

actual experience) are amortized over the weighted average remaining service life of all participants in the respective

pension plan and are recorded as a component of pension expense beginning with the period in which they are

incurred.

For purposes of measuring the net pension liability and deferred outflows/inflows of resources related to pensions,

and pension expense, information about the fiduciary net position of the City's CalPERS Plans and additions

to/deductions from the Plans' fiduciary net position have been determined on the same basis as they are reported by

Cal PERS. For this purpose, benefit payments (including refunds of employee contributions) are recognized when due

and payable in accordance with the benefit terms. Investments are reported at fair value. Projected earnings on

pension investments are recognized as a component of pension expense.

Net Position

Net position is the excess of all the City's assets plus deferred outflows of resources, over all its liabilities and deferred

inflows of resources. Net position is divided into three captions under GASB Statement No. 34, amended by GASB

Note 2: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

Statement No. 63. These captions apply only to net position, which is determined only at the government-wide level,

and are described below:

Net investment in capital assets: Describes the portion of net position which is represented by the current net book

value of the City's capital assets, less the outstanding balance of any debt issued to finance these assets.

Restricted net position: Describes the portion of net position which is restricted as to use by the terms and conditions

of agreements with outside parties, governmental regulations, laws, or other restrictions which the City cannot

unilaterally alter. These principally include developer fees received for use on capital projects and debt service

requirements.

Unrestricted net position: Describes the portion of net position which is not restricted to use.

Fund Equity

The City's fund financial statements report fund balance in classifications that compromise a hierarchy based primarily

on the extent to which the City is bound to honor constraints on the specific purpose for which amounts in the funds

can be spent. GASB Statement No. 54, Fund Balance Reporting and Governmental Fund Type Definitions, identifies

five components of fund balance- nonspendable, restricted, committed, assigned, and unassigned.

Nonspendab!e: This component consists of amounts that cannot be spent because they are either (a) not in spendable

form or (b) legally or contractually required to be maintained intact.

Restricted: This component consists of amounts that have constraints placed on them either externally by third­

parties (creditors, granters, contributors, or laws or regulations of other governments) or by law through

constitutional provisions or enabling legislation. Enabling legislation authorizes the City to assess, levy, charge or

otherwise mandate payment of resources (from external resource providers) and includes legally enforceable

requirement (compelled by external parties) that those resources be used only for the specific purposes stipulated in

the legislation.

Committed: This component consists of amounts that can only be used for specific purposes pursuant to constraints

imposed by formal action of the City's highest level of decision making authority which includes the City Municipal

Code, Ordinances and Resolutions. Those committed amounts cannot be used for any other purpose unless the City

removes or changes the specified use by taking the same type of action (City Municipal Code, Ordinance and

Resolution) it employed previously to commit those amounts.

Notes to Financial Statements

June 30, 2016

Page 9

Note 2: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

Assigned: This component consists of amounts that are constrained by the City's intent to be used for specific

purposes, but are neither restricted nor committed. Such intent should be expressed by the City Council or its

designated officials to assign amounts to be used. Constraints imposed on the use of assigned amounts can be

removed with no formal Council actions.

Unassigned: This component consists of amounts that have not been restricted, committed or assigned to specific

purposes.

Fund Balance Spending Policy

The City has formally adopted a spending policy regarding the order in which restricted, committed, assigned, and

unassigned fund balances are spent when more than one amount is available for a specific purpose. When both

restricted and unrestricted resources are available for use, it is the City's policy to use restricted resources first, then

unrestricted resources (committed, assigned and unassigned) as they are needed. When unrestricted resources

(committed, assigned and unassigned) are available for use it is the City's policy to use committed resources first, then

assigned, and then unassigned as they are needed.

Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United

States of America, as prescribed by the GASB and the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, requires

management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and

disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of

revenues and expenditures/expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Fair Value Measurements

As defined in GASB Statement No. 72, Fair Value Measurement and Application, fair value is the price that would be

received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the

measurement date. The City uses valuation techniques that are appropriate under the circumstances and for which

sufficient data are available to measure fair value. Valuation techniques maximize the use of relevant observable

inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.

Page 10

Note 2: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

GASB Statement No. 72 establishes a hierarchy of inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. That

hierarchy has three levels:

Level 1- Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2 - Observable inputs, other than Level 1 prices, for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly;

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

For fiscal year ended June 30, 2016, the application of valuation techniques applied to the City's financial statements

has been consistent.

Subsequent Events

Events subsequent to June 30, 2016, have been evaluated through February 28, 2017, which is the date the financial

statements were available to be issued. Management did not identify any subsequent events requiring disclosure.

Note 3: Cash and Investments

The City follow the practice of pooling cash and investments for all funds under its direct daily control. Interest earned

on pooled cash and investments is allocated quarterly to the various funds based on the respective fund's average

quarterly cash balance.

At June 30, 2016, cash and investments consisted of the following:

Deposits:

Cash and cash equivalents

The City categorizes its fair value measurements within the fair value hierarchy established by generally accepted

accounting principles. At June 30, 2016, common stock investments were classified within Level 1 of the fair value

hierarchy. Level 1 investment securities are valued using prices quoted in active markets for those securities. LAIF

investments are not subject to fair value hierarchy.

Note 3: Cash and Investments (Continued)

Custodial Credit Risk - Deposits

Custodial credit risk is the risk that in the event of a bank failure, the City's deposits may not be returned to it. The

City does not have a formal deposit policy for custodial credit risk in addition to the California Government Code

collateral requirements. All deposits held by financial institutions are fully insured or collateralized with securities,

held by the pledging financial institutions' trust departments in the City's name.

Investment Policy

Cash balances from all funds are combined and invested to the extent possible, pursuant to the City Council approved

Investment Policy and Guidelines, and State Government Code. The earnings from these investments are allocated

monthly to each fund, based on an average of monthly opening and closing balances of cash and investments.

Investments are stated at fair value.

Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF)

The City maintained investments with the State of California Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF). The LAIF is an

external investment pool sponsored by the State of California. These pooled funds approximate fair value. The

administration of the LAIF is provided by the California State Treasurer and regulatory oversight is provided by the

Pooled Money Investment Board and the Local Investment Advisory Board. State statutes, bond resolutions, and LAIF

investment policy resolutions allow investments in United States government securities, negotiable certificates of

deposit, bankers' acceptances, commercial paper, corporate bonds, bank notes, mortgage loans and notes, other debt

securities, repurchase agreements, reverse repurchase agreements, equity securities, real estate, mutual funds and

other investments. The LAIF's report discloses the required information in accordance with GASB Statements No. 3

and 40. Pooled investments are not required to be categorized by risk category.

Interest Rate Risk

The City's formal investment policy does not limit investment maturities as a means of managing its exposure to fair

value losses arising from increasing interest rates.

Credit Risk

State law limits investments in commercial paper, corporate bonds, and mutual bond funds to the top two ratings

issued by nationally recognized statistical rating organizations. The City has no investment policy that would further

Concentration of Credit Risk

The City places no limit on the amount the City may invest in any one issuer. The City's investments in the LAIF

represented 11.2% of total cash and investments.

Note 4: Loans Receivable

The City has made various loans under Community Development Block Grants to qualified homeowners and

businesses. Under the terms of the business loans, repayments are due in monthly installments through 2021. Under

the terms of the homeowner agreements, repayments of the loans are only required upon the sale of the home. The

outstanding balance of the loans receivable was $41,209 at June 30, 2016.

At June 30, 2016, the aggregate maturities of loans receivable were as follows:

Note 7: Other Post-Employment Benefits

Plan Description

The City's other post-employment benefits (OPEB) cost obligation is for retiree health benefits under its election to

participate in the California Public Employees' Retirement System (PERS) Health Benefit Program, an agent multiple­

employer defined benefit OPEB plan. The City entered the PERS medical insurance program in 1990 under the Public

Employees' Medical and Hospital Care Act (PEMHCA). The required employer contribution was $125 per employee

per month in 2016.

The City provides post-employment health care insurance to all employees who retire from the City on or after

attaining age SO with at least S years of PERS credited service. For employees first covered under PERS on or after

January 1, 2013, the eligibility requirement are attaining age 52 and S years of PERS credited service. Currently, four

retirees meet those eligibility requirements.

Funding Policy

The contribution requirements of the plan members and the City are established and may be amended by the City.

The City's annual OPEB cost (expense) is calculated based upon the annual required contribution (ARC), an amount

actuarially determined in accordance with the parameters of GASB Statement No. 45.

The City's ARC represents a level of funding that, if paid on an ongoing basis, is projected to cover the normal cost

each year and amortize the unfunded actuarial liability over a period of 30 years. The ARC for the fiscal year 2015-

2016 was $49,013. For the fiscal year 2015-2016, the City contributed $5,940 to the Plan.

Annual OPEB Cost and Net OPEB Obligation

Actuarial value of plan assets

Unfunded actuarial accrued liability (UAAL) $ 268,068

Funded ratio (actuarial value of plan assets/AAL) 0.0%

Covered payroll (active plan members) $ 1,853,700

UAAL as a percentage of covered payroll 14.5%

Actuarial valuations of an ongoing plan involve estimates of the value of reported amounts and assumptions about the

probability of occurrence of events far into the future. Examples include assumptions about future employment,

mortality, and the healthcare cost trend. Amounts determined regarding the funded status of the plan and the annual

required contributions of the employer are subject to continual revision as actual results are compared with past

expectations and new estimates are made about the future.

The schedule of funding progress is presented as required supplementary information following the notes to the

financial statements. The schedule presents multiyear trend information about whether the actuarial value of Plan

assets is increasing or decreasing over time relative to the actuarial liability for benefits.

Actuarial Methods and Assumptions

Projections of benefits for financial reporting purposes are based on the substantive plan (the plan as understood by

the employer and the plan members) and include the types of benefits provided at the time of each valuation and the

historical pattern of sharing of benefit costs between the employer and plan members to that point. The actuarial

methods and assumptions used include techniques that are designed to reduce the effects of short-term volatility in

actuarial accrued liabilities and the actuarial value of assets, consistent with the long-term perspective of the

calculations.

Note 7: Other Post-Employment Benefits (Continued)

In the July 1, 2013 actuarial valuation, the projected unit cost actuarial cost method was used. The actuarial

assumptions included a 4.0% investment rate of return. The initial health care cost trend rates were 5.0 to 8.0%. The

method of determining the actuarial value of assets is not applicable as the plan has no assets. The unfunded

actuarial accrued liability (UAAL) is being amortized as a level percentage of projected payroll over 30 years on an

open basis. The remaining amortization period at June 30, 2016 was 28 years.

Cost-Sharing Employer Plans

Plan Descriptions

All qualified permanent and probationary employees are eligible to participate in the City's separate Safety (police and

fire) and Miscellaneous (all other) Employee Pension Plans (Plans), which are cost-sharing multiple employer defined

benefit pension plans administered by the California Public Employees' Retirement System (CalPERS). Benefit

provisions under the Plans are established by State statute and City resolution. Cal PERS issues publicly available

reports that include a full description of the pension plans regarding benefit provisions, assumptions and membership

information that can be found on the Cal PERS website.

Benefits Provided

CalPERS provides service retirement and disability benefits, annual cost of living adjustments and death benefits to

plan members, who must be public employees and beneficiaries. Benefits are based on years of credited service,

equal to one year of full time employment. Members with five years of total service are eligible to retire at age SO

with statutorily reduced benefits. All members are eligible for non-duty disability benefits after 10 years of service.

The death benefit is one of the following: the Basic Death Benefit, the 1957 Survivor Benefit, or the Optional

Settlement 2W Death Benefit. The cost of living adjustments for each plan are applied as specified by the Public

Employees' Retirement Law.

Section 20814(c) of the California Public Employees' Retirement Law requires that the employer contribution rates for

all public employers be determined on an annual basis by the actuary and shall be effective on the July 1 following

notice of a change in the rate. Funding contributions for both Plans are determined annually on an actuarial basis as

of June 30 by Cal PERS. The actuarially determined rate is the estimated amount necessary to finance the costs of

benefits earned by employees during the year, with an additional amount to finance any unfunded accrued liability.

The City is required to contribute the difference between the actuarially determined rate and the contribution rate of

employees.

For the year ended June 30, 2016, the contributions recognized as part of pension expense for each Plan were as

follows:

Allowance Floor on Purchasing Power applies, 2.75% thereafter

(2) Derived using CalPERS' Membership Data for all Funds

The mortality table used was developed based on Cal PERS' specific data. The table includes 20 years of mortality

improvements using Society of Actuaries Scale BB. For more details on this table, please refer to the 2014 experience

study report.

All other actuarial assumptions used in the June 30, 2014 valuation were based on the results of an actuarial

experience study for the period 1997 to 2011, including updates to salary increase, mortality and retirement dates.

Further details of the Experience Study can found on the CalPERS website under Forms and Publications.

Change in Assumptions. According to Paragraph 68 of GASB 68, the long-term expected rate of return should be

determined net of pension plan investment expense but without reduction for pension plan administrative expense.

The discount rate of 7 .50% used for the June 30, 2014 measurement date was net of administrative expenses. The

discount rate of 7.65% used for the June 30, 2015 measurement date is without reduction of pension plan

administrative expense.

Discount Rate. The discount rate used to measure the total pension liability was 7 .65% for each Plan. To determine

whether the municipal bond rate should be used in the calculation of a discount rate for each plan, Cal PERS stress

tested plans that would most likely result in a discount rate that would be different from the actuarially assumed

discount rate. Based on the testing, none of the tested plans run out of assets. Therefore, the current 7.65% discount

rate is adequate and the use of the municipal bond rate calculation is not necessary. The long term expected discount

rate 017.65% will be applied to all plans in the Public Employees Retirement Fund (PERF). The stress test results are

presented in a detailed report that can be obtained from the Cal PERS website.

Note 8: Pension Plans (Continued)

The long-term expected rate of return on pension plan investments was determined using a building-block method in

which best-estimate ranges of expected future real rates of return (expected returns, net of pension plan investment

expense and inflation) are developed for each major asset class.

In determining the long-term expected rate of return, Cal PERS took into account both short-term and long-term

market return expectations as well as the expected pension fund cash flows. Using historical returns of all the funds'

asset classes, expected compound returns were calculated over the short-term (first 10 years) and the long-term (11-

60 years) using a building-block approach. Using the expected nominal returns for both short-term and long-term, the

present value of benefits was calculated for each fund. The expected rate of return was set by calculating the single

equivalent expected return that arrived at the same present value of benefits for cash flows as the one calculated

using both short-term and long-term returns. The expected rate of return was then set equivalent to the single

equivalent rate calculated above and rounded down to the nearest one quarter of one percent.

The table below reflects the long-term expected real rate of return by asset class. The rate of return was calculated

using the capital market assumptions applied to determine the discount rate and asset allocation. These rates of

return are net of administrative expenses.

Note 9: lnterfund Transactions

lnterfund Receivables and Payables (Due to/Due From)

lnterfund receivables and payables include temporary negative cash balances that result from the timing of cash flows

at year end and the time lag between the dates that transactions are recorded in the accounting system and payment

between funds are made. Liquidation of interfund receivables and payables typically occurs in the first quarter of the

subsequent fiscal year. lnterfund balances between governmental funds are not included in the government-wide

statement of net position.

lnterfund Loans

lnterfund loans occur when one fund loans another fund amounts for a specific purpose. Unlike external loans, these

internal loans are interest-free. However, the City intends to pay amounts back to the appropriate loaning fund in a

manner similar to how an external loan would be paid, with a set payment schedule. The purpose of the interfund

loans to the General Fund were to reduce the existing negative cash balance and support continued operations. The

purpose of the Library Fund interfund loan was to pay the library lease payments, which will be supported through

development fees in future years.

lnterfund Transfers

lnterfund transfers are used to move revenues from the fund with collection authorization to the debt service fund as

debt service principal and interest payments become due and to move unrestricted fund revenues to finance various

programs that the government must account for in other funds in accordance with budgetary authorizations, including

amounts provided as matching funds for various grant programs. lnterfund transfers to the General Fund are for the

variable cost allocation plan for services provided to other funds of the City.

Note 10: Revenue Limitations Imposed By California Proposition 218

Proposition 218, which was approved by voters in November 1996, regulates the City's ability to impose, increase and

extend taxes, assessments, and fees. Any new, increase, or extended taxes, assessments, and fees subject to the

provisions of Proposition 218, require voter approval before they can be implemented. Additionally, Proposition 218

provides that these taxes, assessments, and fees are subject to the voter initiative process and may be rescinded in

the future years by the voters. Therefore, the City's ability to finance the services for which the taxes, assessments,

and fees were imposed may be significantly impaired.

The City of Guadalupe participates in two joint ventures under joint powers agreements.

Central Coast Water Authority

The Central Coast Water Authority (CCWA) is a joint powers authority organized in 1991 for the purpose of providing

the financing, construction, operation and maintenance of certain local (non-state owned) facilities required to deliver

water from the State Water Project to certain water purveyors and users in Santa Barbara County. CCWA is composed

of eight members, all of which are public agencies. The Board of Directors is made up of one representative from each

participating entity. Votes on the Board are apportioned between the entities based upon each entity's pro-rata share

of the water provided by the project.

Each participant is required to pay to CCWA an amount equal to its share of the total cost of "fixed project costs" and

certain other costs in the proportion established in the Water Supply Agreement. This includes the participant's share

of payments to the State Department of Water Resources (DWR) under the State Water Supply Contract (including

capital, operation, maintenance, power and replacement costs of the DWR facilities), debt service on CCWA bonds and

all CCWA operating and administrative costs. Each participant is required to make payments under its Water Supply

Agreement solely from the revenues of its water system. State water payments were $663,337 for the year ended

June 30, 2016. The City's allocation of CCWA's operating expenses for the year ended June 30, 2016 was $108,239.

Additional information and complete financial statements for the CCWA may be obtained by contacting The Central

Coast Water Authority at 255 Industrial Way, Buellton, CA 93427.

Note 12: Joint Ventures (Joint Power Agreements) (Continued)

California Joint Powers Insurance Authority

The City is a member of the California Joint Powers Insurance Authority (CJPIA). CJPIA is composed of 122 California

public entities and is organized under a joint powers agreement pursuant to California Government Code §6500 et

seq. The purpose of CJPIA is to arrange and administer programs for the pooling of self-insured losses, to purchase

excess insurance or reinsurance, and to arrange for group purchased insurance for property and other coverages. The

CJPIA's pool began covering claims of its members in 1978. Each member government has an elected official as its

representative on the Board of Directors. The Board operates through a nine-member Executive Committee.

Self-Insurance Program of CJPIA:

Each member pays an annual contribution (formerly called the primary deposit) to cover estimated losses for the

coverage period. This initial funding is paid at the beginning of the coverage period. After the close of the coverage

period, outstanding claims are valued. A retrospective deposit computation is then conducted annually thereafter

until all claims incurred during the coverage period are closed on a pool-wide basis. This subsequent cost re-allocation

among members based on actual claim development can result in adjustments of either refunds or additional deposits

required.

The total funding requirement for self-insurance programs is estimated using actuarial models and pre-funded

through the annual contribution. Costs are allocated to individual agencies based on exposure (payroll) and

experience (claims) relative to other members of the risk-sharing pool. Additional information regarding the cost

allocation methodology is provided below.

Liability: In the liability program claims are pooled separately between police and non-police exposures. (1) The

payroll of each member is evaluated relative to the payroll of the other members. A variable credibility factor is

determined for each member, which established the weight applied to payroll and the weight applied to losses within

the formula. (2) The first layer of losses includes incurred costs up to $30,000 for each occurrence and is evaluated as

a percentage of the pool's total incurred costs within the first layer. (3) The second layer of losses includes incurred

costs from the $30,000 to $750,000 for each occurrence and is evaluated as a percentage of the pool's total incurred

costs within the second layer. (4) Incurred costs in excess of $750,000 up to the reinsurance attachment point of $5

million are distributed based on the outcome of cost allocation within the first and second loss layers. (5) Costs of

covered claims from $5 million to $10 million are paid under a reinsurance contract subject to a $2.5 million annual

aggregate deductible. The $2.5 million annual aggregate deductible is fully covered under a separate policy; as no

such portion of it is retained by CJPIA. Costs of covered claims from $10 million to $15 million are paid under two

reinsurance contracts subject to a combined $3 million annual aggregate deductible. The $3.0 million annual

aggregate deductible is fully retained by CJPIA. (6) Costs of covered claims from $15 million up to $50 million are

Note 12: Joint Ventures (Joint Power Agreements) (Continued)

covered through excess insurance policies. The overall coverage limit for each member including all layers of coverage

is $SO million per occurrence.

Costs covered claims for subsidence losses are paid by reinsurance and excess insurance with a pooled sub-limit of $25

million per occurrence. This $25 million subsidence sub-limit is composed of (a) $5 million retained with the pool's

SIR, (b) $10 million in reinsurance and (c) $10 million in excess insurance. The excess insurance layer has a $10 million

annual aggregate.

Workers' Compensation: The City also participates in the worker's compensation pool administered by CJIPA. In the

workers' compensation program claims are pooled separately between public safety (police and fire) and non-public

safety exposures. (1) The payroll of each member is evaluated relative to the payroll of the other members. A

variable credibility factor is determined for each member, which established the weight applied to payroll and the

weight applied to losses within the formula. (2) The first layer of losses includes incurred costs up to $50,000 for each

occurrence and is evaluated as a percentage of the pool's total incurred costs within the first layer. (3) The second

layer of losses includes incurred costs from $50,000 to $100,000 for each occurrence and is evaluated as a percentage

of the pool's total incurred costs within the second layer. (4) Incurred costs in excess of $100,000 up to reinsurance

attachment point of $2 million are distributed based on the outcome of cost allocation within the first and second loss

layers. (5) Costs of covered claims from $2 million up to statutory limits are paid under a reinsurance policy.

Protection is provided per statutory liability under California Workers' Compensation Law.

Employer's Liability losses are pooled among members to $2 million. Coverage from $2 million to $5 million is

purchased as part of a reinsurance policy, and Employer's Liability losses from $5 million to $10 million are pooled

among members.

Purchased Insurance under CJP/A:

Property Insurance: The City participates in the all-risk property protection program of CJPIA. This insurance

protection is underwritten by several insurance companies. City property is currently insured according to a schedule

of covered property submitted by the City to CJPIA. City property currently has all-risk property insurance protection

in the amount of $12,785,885. There is a $5,000 deductible per occurrence except for non-emergency vehicle

insurance which has a $1,000 deductible. Premiums for the coverage are paid annually and are not subject to

retroactive adjustments.

Adequacy of Protection under CJPIA:

During the past three fiscal years, the above programs of protection have had no settlements or judgments that

exceeded pooled or insured coverage. There have been no significant reductions in pooled or insured liability

coverage in 2015-16.

Note 14: Successor Agency Trust for Assets of Former Redevelopment Agency

On December 29, 2011, the California Supreme Court upheld Assembly Bill lX 26 ("the Bill") that provides for the

dissolution of all redevelopment agencies in the State of California. This action impacted the reporting entity of the

City of Guadalupe that previously had reported a redevelopment agency within the reporting entity of the City as a

blended component unit.

Note 14: Successor Agency Trust for Assets of Former Redevelopment Agency (Continued)

The Bill provides that upon dissolution of a redevelopment agency, either the City or another unit of local government

will agree to serve as the "successor agency" to hold the assets until they are distributed to other units of state and

local government. On January 24, 2012, the City Council elected to become the Successor Agency for the former

redevelopment agency in accordance with the Bill as part of City resolution number 2012-08.

After enactment of the law, which occurred on June 28, 2011, redevelopment agencies in the State of California

cannot enter into new projects, obligations or commitments. Subject to the control of a newly established oversight

board, remaining assets can only be used to pay enforceable obligations in existence at the date of dissolution

(including the completion of any unfinished projects that were subject to legally enforceable contractual

commitments.)

In future fiscal years, successor agencies will only be allocated revenue in the amount that is necessary to pay the

estimated annual installment payments on enforceable obligations of the former redevelopment agency until all

enforceable obligations of the prior redevelopment agency have been paid in full and all assets have been liquidated.

The Bill directs the State Controller of the State of California to review the propriety of any transfers of assets between

redevelopment agencies and other public bodies that occurred after January 1, 2011. If the public body that received

such transfers is not contractually committed to a third party for the expenditure of encumbrance of those assets, the

State Controller is required to order the available assets to be transferred to the public body designated as the

successor agency of the Bill.

Management believes, in consultation with legal counsel, that the obligations of the former redevelopment agency

due to the City are valid enforceable obligations payable by the successor agency trust under the requirements of the

Bill. The City's position on this issue is not a position of settled law and there is a considerable legal uncertainty

regarding this issue. It is reasonably possible that a legal determination may be made at a later date by an appropriate

judicial authority that would resolve this issue unfavorably to the City.

In accordance with the timeline set forth in the Bill (as modified by the California Supreme Court on December 29,

2011) all redevelopment agencies in the State of California were dissolved and ceased to operate as a legal entity as of

February 1, 2012. After the date of dissolution, the assets and activities of the dissolved redevelopment agency were

transferred to and are reported in a fiduciary fund (private-purpose trust fund, the Trust Fund) in the financial

statements of the City.

Cash and Investments

The City maintained investments with the State of California Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF) for all City activities,

including the Trust Fund. The Trust had $1,227,269 in cash and investments as of June 30, 2016, that was held in LAIF.

Cash with Fiscal Agent

The Trust Fund had $414,750 in cash and investments as of June 30, 2016, held by fiscal agents pledged for the

payment or security of certain bonds. The California Government code provides that these monies, in the absence of

specific statutory provisions governing the issuance of bonds, certificates, or leases, may be invested in accordance

with the ordinance, resolutions, or indentures specifying the types of investments its fiscal agents may make. These

ordinances, resolutions, and indentures are generally more restrictive than the Trust's general investment policy. In

no instance have additional types of investments, not permitted by the Trust's general investment policy, been

authorized.

Loans Receivable from City of Guadalupe

The Trust Fund had $156,910 in loans receivable due from the City as of June 30, 2016. Refer to Note 6 for additional

information on the terms and the aggregate maturities of the loans receivable as of June 30, 2016.

Loans Receivable

During 2007, the former redevelopment agency made a loan to a nonprofit organization for land purchase and low

income housing construction within the City's project area. Subsequent to year end, the Housing Authority of the

County of Santa Barbara has become the successor agency on this project and the loan will be transferred. The

balance on the loan was $450,000 at June 30, 2016.

The former redevelopment agency has made various loans to businesses in the City's project area. The loans' interest

Between the fiscal years 2008/2009 through 2015/16, the former Agency expended a total of $579,000 towards the

cleanup costs. Cleanup costs incurred and paid for the 2014/15 SFY, but which the City has not yet been reimbursed

for by the State, total $137,314. Due to changes in processing claims at the State, reimbursement of these costs to the

City is expected by the end of March 2017. Cleanup costs incurred during the 2015/2016 SFY total approximately

$96,534. Reimbursement of all or the majority of these costs are expected sometime in 2017. Payments for tasks

performed are due within six months of invoice date or upon receipt of USTCF claim reimbursement.

Tasks in 2015/16 included: 1) remediation system operation, maintenance, monitoring and reporting; 2) conducting a

remediation progress groundwater monitoring event to evaluate the effectiveness of the remediation system: 3)

working with the LOP to conduct a thorough LTCP review of the site (which indicated the site did not meet L TCP

criteria); 4) identifying the next course of remedial actions to be taken until such time as groundwater levels returned

Note 14: Successor Agency Trust for Assets of Former Redevelopment Agency (Continued)

In August 2015, the LOP directed that soil vapor extraction (SVE) activities be employed at the site due to groundwater

levels dropping and exposing areas of contamination that were previously under water. As such, the ozone sparge

system operations were ceased and the system was removed from the site. Between February 1, 2016 and

February 22, 2016, the SVE activities were conducted at the site. Results of the SVE activities were successful and

removed significant amounts of contaminants from the subsurface. The results of the SVE activities were provided in

a DMI-EMK "Limited Soil Vapor Extraction Report" dated July 18, 2016.

On January 18, 2017, the City received notice from the County Environmental Health Services Division with further

requirements for this site to include further clean-up as well as removal of the dispenser island and all UST

components. The estimated liability for work performed in 2016/17 is approximately $75,000-$100,000. Since

additional remediation is required, tasks will likely consist of: development and preparation of a work plan for County

approval; coordination and implementation of required SVE activities at the site; monitoring and sampling of the SVE

system; quarterly remediation system reporting; and annual re-evaluation of the site conditions for low-threat closure

under State guidelines.

Estimated future costs beyond June 30, 2017 are anticipated to be approximately $75,000 - $150,000, -depending on

whether the site is found to meet the low-threat closure criteria (and therefore just requires closure-related activities)

or requires additional remediation.

Based on the above, the total estimated costs for cleanup activities (approximately $800,000-$1,000,000) is expected

to fall below the $1.5 Million budget allotted this site by the State.

In November 2013, The Successor Agency sought an appraisal of the site. The appraisal determined the value of the

site to be $85,000 if un-remediated and $103,000 if remediated to the satisfaction of the regulatory agency and

provided with a closure letter. As part of the Long Range Property Management Plan required by the Department of

Finance, the Agency is required to dispose of the property. The Agency has engaged a commercial real estate broker

to facilitate that process.

Note 15: Operating Leases

The City leases equipment under operating leases with lease terms in excess of one year. The agreements contain a

termination clause providing for cancellation after a specified number of days written notice to lessors but it is unlikely

that the City will cancel the agreements prior to the expiration date. Rent expense under operating leases was

$34,217 for the year ended June 30, 2016.

The City is a defendant in a matter that is being litigated in court. City management and their attorney plan to mount

a vigorous defense and believe that the outcome of the case will be in the City's favor. Should the outcome not be in

the City's favor, loss amounts could be material to the financial statements and to the City, and the resulting impact

on these financial statements is unknown.

Grant Commitments

The City had received state and federal funds for specific purposes that are subject to review and audit by the granter

agencies. Although such audits could generate expenditure disallowances under terms of the grants, it is believed that

any required reimbursements will not be material.

Note 17: New Accounting Standards

Accounting Standards Adopted

In February 2015, GASB issued Statement No. 72, Fair Value Measurement and Application, which addresses

accounting and financial reporting issues related to fair value measurements. This Statement also provides guidance

for applying fair value to certain investments and disclosures related to all fair value measurements. The provisions of

Statement No. 72 are effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2015. Implementation of this statement

resulted in additional fair value measurement disclosures. See Note 3 to the financial statements for further

discussion.

Note 17: New Accounting Standards (Continued)

In June 2015, GASB issued Statement No. 73, Accounting and Financial Reporting for Pensions and Related Assets That

Are Not within the Scope of GASB Statement 68, and Amendments to Certain Provisions of GASB Statements 67 and 68.

The requirements of this Statement extend the approach to accounting and financial reporting established in

Statement 68 to all pensions, with modifications as necessary to reflect that for accounting and financial reporting

purposes, any assets accumulated for pensions that are provided through pension plans that are not administered

through trusts that meet the criteria specified in Statement 68 should not be considered pension plan assets. The

provisions of Statement No. 73 are effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2015. Implementation of this

statement did not have a material impact on the City's financial statements.

In June 2015, GASB issued Statement No. 76, The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles for State and

Local Governments. The objective of this Statement is to identify-in the context of the current governmental

financial reporting environment-the hierarchy of generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). The "GAAP

hierarchy" consists of the sources of accounting principles used to prepare financial statements of state and local

governmental entities in conformity with GAAP and the framework for selecting those principles. This Statement

reduces the GAAP hierarchy to two categories of authoritative GAAP and addresses the use of authoritative and

nonauthoritative literature in the event that the accounting treatment for a transaction or other event is not specified

within a source of authoritative GAAP. The provisions of Statement No. 76 are effective for fiscal years beginning after

June 15, 2015. Implementation of this statement did not have a material impact on the City's financial statements.

New Accounting Standards

In June 2015, GASB issued Statement No. 74, Financial Reporting for Postemployment Benefit Plans Other Than

Pension Plans, which establishes financial reporting standards for state and local governmental OPEB plans-defined

benefit OPEB plans and defined contribution OPEB plans-that are administered through trusts or equivalent

arrangements. The provisions of Statement No. 74 are effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2016.

Management has not yet determined the impact of this Statement on its financial statements.

Additionally, in June 2015, GASB issued Statement No. 75, Accounting and Financial Reporting for Postemployment

Benefit Plans Other Than Pensions. Statement No. 75 establishes new accounting and financial reporting

requirements for governments whose employees are provided with OPEB, as well as for certain nonemployer

governments that have a legal obligation to provide financial support for OPEB provided to the employees of other

entities. The provisions of Statement No. 75 are effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2017. Management

has not yet determined the impact of this Statement on its financial statements.

Note 17: New Accounting Standards (Continued)

In August 2015, GASB issued Statement No. 77, Tax Abatement Disclosures. Statement No. 77 requires disclosure of

tax abatement information about (1) a reporting government's own tax abatement agreements and (2) those that are

entered into by other governments and that reduce the reporting government's tax revenues. The provisions of

Statement No. 77 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015. Management has not yet

determined the impact of this Statement on its financial statements.

In December 2015, GASB issued Statement No. 78, Pensions Provided through Certain Multiple-Employer Defined

Benefit Pension Plans. Statement No. 78 addresses a practice issue regarding the scope and applicability of Statement

No. 68 for pensions provided through certain multiple-employer defined benefit pension plans and to state or local

governmental employers whose employees are provided with such pensions. The provisions of Statement No. 78 are

effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015. Management has not yet determined the impact of this

Statement on its financial statements.

In December 2015, GASB issued Statement No. 79, Certain External Investment Pools and Pool Participants. Statement

No. 79 addresses accounting and financial reporting for certain external investment pools and pool participants. The

provisions of Statement No. 79 are effective for reporting periods beginning after June 15, 2016. Management has

not yet determined the impact of this Statement on its financial statements.

In January 2016, GASB issued Statement No. 80, Blending Requirements for Certain Component Units - an amendment

of GASB Statement No. 14. Statement No. 80 amends the blending requirements established in paragraph 53 of

Statement No. 14, The Financial Reporting Entity, as amended. The provisions of Statement No. 80 are effective for

fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015. Management has not yet determined the impact of this Statement on

its financial statements.

In March 2016, GASB issued Statement No. 81, Irrevocable Split-Interest Agreements. Statement No. 81 requires that

a government that receives resources pursuant to an irrevocable split-interest agreement recognize assets, liabilities,

and deferred inflows of resources at the inception of the agreement. The Statement also provides additional

recognition and measurement guidance for situations in which a government is a beneficiary of the agreement. The

provisions of Statement No. 81 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016. Management has not

yet determined the impact of this Statement on its financial statements.

In March 2016, GASB issued Statement No. 82, Pension Issues-an amendment of GASB Statements No. 67, No. 68,

and No. 73. Statement No. 82 addresses issues regarding (1) the presentation of payroll-related measures in required

supplementary information, (2) the selection of assumptions and the treatment of deviations from the guidance in an

Actuarial Standard of Practice for financial reporting purposes, and (3) the classification of payments made by

In November 2016, GASB issued Statement No. 83, Capital Asset Retirement Obligations. Statement No. 83 provides

financial statement users with information about asset retirement obligations that were not addressed in GASB

standards by establishing uniform accounting and financial reporting requirements for these obligations. The

provisions of Statement No. 83 are effective for reporting periods beginning after June 15, 2018. Management has

not yet determined the impact of this Statement on its financial statements.

Note 18: Prior Year Restatements

During 2016, a prior year restatement was recorded to properly restate deferred inflow of resources related to pensions

that had been amortized during the year ended June 30, 2015 rather than amortized during the measurement period

ending June 30, 2015. The effect was to increase deferred inflows of resources related to pensions and decreased

beginning net position by $151,042 for Governmental Activities and $10,245 for Business-Type Activities for the year

ended June 30, 2016.

During the current year, the City determined that the Capital Facilities Fund, previously classified as a fiduciary fund

and therefore not included in the government-wide financial statements, is more accurately classified as a capital

projects fund. A prior year restatement was recorded in order to correctly classify the Capital Facilities Fund's 2015

ending fund balance as part of governmental activities. The effect was to increase beginning fund balance in the

Capital Facilities Fund by $249,720.

Although the City has always recorded revenue on the accrual basis, the recorded monthly Measure A sales tax

revenue was delayed by one month each year. A prior year restatement was recorded in the Measure A Fund, Local

Transportation Fund and Transit Fund to increase beginning net position by $41,759, $506, and 25,517, respectively,

to properly record June 2015 revenue.

Note 19: Going Concern

In prior fiscal years, the City's focus was on decreasing costs. In May 2014, City Council placed three General Fund tax

measures on the November 2014 general election ballot to address the structural General Fund deficit.

The three measures were as follows:

1.) A measure to eliminate the $2,250 Utility Users Tax cap. It is estimated that doing so will result in $135,000

of additional General Fund revenue annually.

2.) A measure to convert the City's Business License fees to a Gross Receipts Tax. It is estimated that doing so

will result in $275,000 of additional General Fund revenue annually.

3.) A measure to adopt a local Sales Tax add-on of 0.25%. It is estimated that doing so will result in $75,000 of

additional General Fund revenue annually.

In 2015-16 the full impact of the additional revenues received due to the three tax measures exceeded $500

thousand. This helped to stabilize the general fund deficit as it only increased $70 thousand or 10% over the prior

year. As a comparison in 2014-15 the added deficit over the prior year was $406 thousand or 154%.

The City continues to analyze all additional potential cost saving measures: including postponing all but

essential purchases for which at least three quotes are required, vendor contracts are been reviewed and new

quotes will be sought. Volunteers currently help offset costs relating to parks/recreation maintenance. Plans

are also underway to offset costs associated from the management and operations of facilities used by the

public by instituting user fees. Potential new sources of revenue include grant funding (the City is eligible for

grant funding as a disadvantaged community). The Pasadera development continues to build out and is

expected to increase the City's residential property tax base. In the long term the City expects to see an

increase in sales tax revenue due to the planned commercial portion of the development. The City is aware of

its budgetary challenges and remains vigilant in seeking sustainable revenue sources as well as in continuing

its austerity practices.

Independent Auditors' Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

and on Compliance and Other Matters Based on an Audit of Financial Statements

Performed in Accordance with Government Auditing Standards

Honorable Mayor and City Council

City of Guadalupe

Guadalupe, California

We have audited, in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the

standards applicable to financial statements contained in Government Auditing Standards issued by the Comptroller

General of the United States, the financial statements of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, each

major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City of Guadalupe {the City) as of and for the year

ended June 30, 2016, which collectively comprise the City's basic financial statements and have issued our report

thereon dated February 28, 2017.

Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements, we considered the City's internal control over

financial reporting (internal control) to determine the audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances for

the purpose of expressing our opinion on the financial statements, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion

on the effectiveness of the City's internal control. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of

the City's internal control.

Our consideration of the internal control was for the limited purpose described in the preceding paragraph and was

not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control that mi@ht be material weaknesses or significant

deficiencies and therefore, material weaknesses or significant deficiencies may exist that were not identified.

However, as described in the accompanying Schedule of Audit Findings and Recommendations, we identified certain

deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting that we consider to be material weaknesses.

A deficiency in internal control exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or

employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent or detect misstatements on a

timely basis. A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control that is less

severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged with governance.

Honorable Mayor and City Council

City of Guadalupe

Guadalupe, California

Pap2

A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control such that here is a reasonable

possibility that a material misstatement of the entity's financial statements will not be prevented, or detected and

corrected on a timely basis. We consider the deficiencies described in the accompanying Schedule of Audit Findings

and Recommendations as findings 2016-001, 2016-002, and 2016-003 to be material weaknesses and finding 2016-

004 to be a significant deficiency.

Compliance and Other Matters

As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the City's financial statements are free from material

misstatement, we performed tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant

agreements, noncompliance with which could have a direct and material effect on the determination of financial

statement amounts. However, providing an opinion on compliance with those provisions was not an objective of our

audit, and accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. The results of our tests disclosed no instances of

noncompliance or other matters that are required to be reported under Government Auditing Standards.

City of Guadalupe's Responses to Findings

The City's response to the findings identified In our audit are described in the accompanying Schedule of Audit

Findings and Recommendations. The City's responses were not subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the

audit of the financial statements and, accordingly, we express no opinion on them.

Purpose of this Report

The purpose of this report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control and compliance and the

results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity's internal control or on

compliance. This report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards

in considering the entity's internal control and compliance. Accordingly, this communication is not suitable for any

other purposes.

City of Guadalupe

Schedule of Audit Findings and Recommendations

Year Ended June 30, 2016

2016-001 Full Recovery of General Fund Deficit Fund Balance and Balanced Budget (Material Weakness)

Criteria: General-purpose local governments, regardless of size, at a minimum should maintain a fund balance in the

general fund of either 1) no less than S to 15 percent of regular general fund operating revenues, or 2) no less than 1

to 2 months of regular general fund operating expenditures.

Condition: The General Fund had a negative fund balance as of June 30, 2016. The General Fund finished the year

with a deficit of $(739,427) compared to a negative fund balance of $(670,768) in the prior fiscal year. Overall, the

fund's liabilities exceeded assets, and the fund had a negative cash balance of $266,765 that is included in accounts

payable on the balance sheet. The General Fund's final budgeted expenditures exceeded budgeted revenues by

$28,124, and its final actual expenditures exceeded actual revenues by $68,659 for the year ended June 30, 2016.

Additionally, as of June 30, 2016 the General Fund owed internally to the Lighting and Assessment Fund and to the

Water Fund in the amounts of $292,500 and $390,000, respectively. These interfund loans were made so that the

General Fund could sustain its basic operations. The multiple afore-mentioned conditions have raised substantial

doubt about the City's ability to continue as a going concern, as described further in Note 19.

Effect: As discussed in Note 19, the General Fund's deficiency in fund balance and decrease in revenues have created

a budget shortfall that will require significant cost cutting measures to reach a budget that will recoup the negative

fund balance as well as provide the necessary revenues and financing for continued operations of the City.

Recommendation: We recommend the City continue to analyze all potential cost cutting measures and revenue

sources, and review options to establish a budget plan for the General Fund to recoup the deficit fund balance as well

as provide continued financing for City operations.

City Response: The City continues to analyze all potential cost cutting measures and revenue sources. Additional

revenues received in FY 2015-16 for the three tax measures exceeded $500 thousand. This helped to stabilize the

general fund deficit as it only increased $70 thousand or 10% over the prior year. As a comparison, in 2014-15 the

added deficit over the prior year was $406 thousand or 154%. As the Pasadera development continues build out the

City expects to see an increase in its residential property tax base. In the long term the City also expects an increase in

sales tax due to the planned commercial portion of the Pasadera development. The City also remains vigilant in

seeking sustainable revenue sources.

2016-002 Revenue Recognition and Timing (Material Weakness)

Criteria: Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America mandate that revenues be recorded

when earned, regardless of when payment is actually received.

City of Guadalupe

Schedule of Audit Findings and Recommendations

Year Ended June 30, 2016

Page 2

Condition: Although the City has always recorded revenue on the accrual basis, the recorded monthly Measure A sales

tax revenue was delayed by one month each year. As monthly amounts are generally quite consistent and total

revenue is similar from year to year, this had not been corrected in previous years. However, in the current year a

prior year restatement of $41,759 was recorded in the Measure A Fund in order to properly capture the correct

months within each fiscal year going forward. See Note 17 for additional information on prior year restatements.

Effect: Incorrectly recording revenue in the wrong period violates the revenue-expense matching principle and may

cause the accounting records to be misstated.

Recommendation: We recommend that the amounts recorded in revenue accounts relate to the current fiscal period.

City Response: The Finance department has reviewed the issue and will properly record revenue accounts related to

the current fiscal period.

2016-003 Reconciliation and Billing for State and local Funding (Material Weakness)

Criteria: All State and local revenue for expenditure reimbursement should be monitored and billed timely to the

appropriate agency and recorded in the applicable fiscal year. Delays in this process will result in decreased revenues

and unreliable financial reports.

Condition: In the current year, State funding revenue and related receivable for pollution remediation expenditures of

the Private Purpose Trust Fund, a Fiduciary Fund of the City, were not recorded for fiscal year 2014-15 and 2015-16.

See Note 14 for additional information on pollution remediation.

Effect: A prior year restatement was recorded to correctly record the reimbursable expenditures of $137,314 for

2014-15 and $96,534 for 2015-16.

Recommendation: We recommend that management monitor all funding sources and requests for expenditure

reimbursements to ensure all available revenues are recorded and received on a timely basis.

City Response: The State was in the process of implementing electronic processing for claims submitted for

reimbursement. Typically the paper claim reimbursement occurs within six months but a glitch occurred and our

electronic claim was stalled way beyond the normal waiting period. The Finance department has put into place

guidelines to monitor all funding for the pollution remediation reimbursement from the State.

2016-004 Full Recovery of Deficiency in Net Position (Significant Deficiency)

Criteria: Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America mandate the use of an enterprise

fund when legal requirements or management policy require that the full cost of providing services (including capital

costs) be recovered through fees and charges.

Condition: The Solid Waste Fund has an ending net deficit of $(95,135) for the year ended June 30, 2016. Although

the fund had net income during the years ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, it has experienced net losses in previous

years and its total liabilities exceed total assets. Note that this is a repeat finding from the years ended June 30, 2005

through 2015.

Effect: Although the City has balanced the budget for the Solid Waste Fund by implementing fee increases, the Fund

has a negative net position that will need to be recouped with net income.

Recommendation: The City should continue to ensure that the Solid Waste fund remains solvent by requiring an

operating budget that plans to recoup the net deficiency.

City Response: The City's plan to decrease the net deficiency is evidenced by Resolution 2015-430, "Affirming Revising

and Setting Fees and Rates for Garbage Collection Services." This five year plan was implemented on June 1, 2015 for

the first 6% increase with subsequent 3% increases beginning August 1, 2015 and every year thereafter for the next

four years. With this plan in place the deficit will continue to decrease over time.

Findings/Recommendation

We recommended the City analyze cost cutting

measures and revenue sources, and to review

these options to establish a budget plan for the

General Fund to recoup the deficit fund balance.

We recommended the City continue to ensure the

solvency of the Solid Waste Fund by requiring a

balanced operating budget and a plan to recoup

the net deficiency.

In relation to the Water Fund annual water

payments we recommended that the City record

expenses in the period in which they are incurred

rather than in the period in which they are paid.

October 6, 2017

Ms. Annette Munaz, Finance Director City of Guadalupe 918 Obispo Street Guadalupe, CA 93434

Dear Ms. Munaz:

Subject: Determination of Oversight Board Action

The City of Guadalupe Successor Agency (Agency) notified the California Department of Finance (Finance) ofits August 16, 2017 Ove111ight Board (08} Resolution on August 22, 2017. Pursuant to Health and Safety Cade (HSC} section 34179 (h), Finance has completed its review of the OB action.

Based on our review and application of the law, OB Resolution Na. 2017-03, approving and authorizing the issuance of Tax Allocation Refunding Bands, Series 2017, is partially approved.

The Agency desires to refund the Tax Allocation Refunding Bonds, Series 2003 issued by the former Redevelopment Agency and anticipates achieving approximately $686,244 in savings over the remaining life of the bonds.

Finance ls approving the proposed refunding_ Finance'a approval is based on our understanding the Agency will not issue refunding bonds unless such bonds meet the requirements outlined in HSC section 34177.5 (a). Fallowing the issuance, the Agency should request funding for the refunding bonds on the next Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule (ROPS), subject to Finance's review and approval.

To the extent the indebtedness obligations approved for refunding per the 08 Rer;olution are refunded in accordance with HSC section 34177.5 and prior to the next ROPS submission, the Agency may use Redevelopment Property Tax Trust Funds reci,ived for payment of the currently listed obligations being refunded. Any indebtednesa for which refunding is finalized must be saparately identified as a new item on a sub8equent ROPS and will be subject lo Fimmce's review and approval. Further, pursuant to HSC section 34186 (a), the Agency is required to report estimated obligation! and actual payments Any unspent funda should be reported as prior period adjustments.

In addition, Section 2 of the OB Resolution states the OB approved the Agency Resolution and incorporated it in thi, OB Resolution. Section 6 (c) of the Agency Resolution No. 2017-05 states the Agency is antitled lo receive its full administrative cost allowance under HSC section 34181 (a) (3) without any deductions with re8pect to continuing costs related to the Bonds. However, HSC section 34181 (a) (3) does not exist While all costs related ta the issuance can be paid separately pursuant to HSC section 34177.5 (f), any administrative coats post-issuance of the

Ms. Annette Munoz October 6, 2017 Page2

bonds must be placed on a subsequent ROPS for Finance's review to determine if the costs should be paid out of the administrative allowance or whether the costs are separate enforceable obligations. To the extent this section seeks to have ongoing administration costs of bonds to be paid in addition to regular administrative costs, such action is denied.

In the event the OB desires to amend the portion of the Resolution not approved by Finance, Finance is returning it to the board for reconsideration. However, the Agency may move forward with the portion of the Re&olution appro11ed by Finance.

Please direct inquiries to Kylie Ollmann, Super11isor, or Daisy Rose. Lead Analyst, at (916) 322-2985.

RE: Successor Agency to the Guadalupe Community Redevelopment Agency Guadalupe Redevelopment Project Tax Increment Verification and Revenue Projections

Dear Ms. Ramos:

Urban Futures, Inc. (UFI) is pleased to present this report of projected tax increment revenues to the Successor Agency to the Guadalupe Community RedevelopmentAgency (the "Agency") forthe Guadalupe Redevelopment Project (the "ProjectArea"). The following information is included as exhibits to th is re port:

Exhibit E:

Tax Increment Projections

Historical Assessed Valuations and Revenues

Ten Largest Taxpayers

Project Area Land Uses

Assessment Appeals

Projected taxable valuations and tax revenues contained in this report are based on assumptions derived from the following information:

1. Historical growth trends;

2. Trended growth in valuation as permitted by Article XIIIAofthe California Constitution (Proposition 13);

3. Financial reports and information supplied or prepared by the Agency;

4. Information provided by the County of Santa Barbara, from the offices of the Auditor-Controller and Assessor; and

Page 242: cdiacdocs.sto.ca.govcdiacdocs.sto.ca.gov/2017-2938.pdf · NEW ISSUE-BOOK-ENTRY RATINGS: Insured: S& P: "AA" Underlying: S& P: "A-t'' See"Ratings" herein In the opinion of Norton Rose

5. Data provided by Metroscan for property ownership information.

The purpose of the projections is to demonstrate the availability of property tax revenues expected to be generated from the Project Area, to secure debt service requirements of the Agency forthe Tax Allocation Refunding Bonds (Taxable), Series 2017 (the"2017 Bonds"). Tax revenues will be paid to the Agency pursuantto the procedures described in AB Xl 26, as amended by AB 1484 and SB 107 (the "Dissolution Act''), which include requirements that the Agency annually file a Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule (the "ROPS") with the County and the State, and that each such ROPS be approved by the Agency's oversight board (the "Oversight Board") and by the State Department of Finance ("DOF").

Revenue projections have been estimated based on assumed 2% annual assessed valuation increases.

Background

Prior to the enactment of the Dissolution Act, the California Community Redevelopment Law (the "Law'') togetherwithArticle 16, Section 16 of the California Constitution, authorized redevelopment agencies to receive that portion of property tax revenue generated by project area taxable values that are over and above the Base Year value. The Base Year value is defined as the amount of the taxable values within the project area boundaries on the last equalized tax roll prior to adoption of the project area. The amount of current year taxable value that is in excess of the Base Year value is referred to as incremental taxable value.

The Dissolution Act authorizes refunding bonds, including the 2017 Bonds, to be secured by a pledge of the same revenues pledged to the bonds being refunded, and to be payable from and secured by monies deposited from time to time in the Redevelopment Property Tax Trust Fund ("RPTTF") held by the County Auditor-Controller. Discussions of tax increment revenues in this report refertothose monies that will be deposited into the RPTTF by the County Auditor-Controller.

With regards to the limitations in Table 3 above, it should be noted that SB 107, enacted September 22, 2015 and effective on the same date, has amended the Dissolution Act with new provisions stating that forthe purposes of the payment of enforceable obligations defined by Health and Safety Code 34171 (d)(l )(A) through (G) (which includes bonds), and for no other purpose whatsoever, a successor agency is not subject to the limitations relating to time, number of tax dollars, or any other mane rs set forth in Health and Safety Code Sections 33333.2, 33333.4, and 33333.6 (including plan limits on the receipt of property taxes and the repayment of indebtedness, and on the maximum amount of tax dollars that may be allocated to the agency underthe redevelopment plan). It is not known with certainty how the County and the DOF will actually implement this provision.

Project Tax Rate Areas

The FY 2017-18 tax rate area numbers used by the Santa Barbara County Auditor-Controller's Office to identify tax revenue apportionment forthe Project Area are summarized in the following table.

Low-and Moderate-Income Haus ing Set-Aside

Pursuantto the Dissolution Act, the Agency is no longer required to set aside 20 percent of annual tax increment allocated to the Agency, for use in projects benefiting low-and moderate-income

housing (the "Former LMI Housing Set-Aside"). Amounts equivalent to the Former LMI Housing Set-Aside amounts are included in the revenues shown in ExhibitA.

Pass Through Payments

Statutory Pass Through Payments:

The Agency is obligated to share tax increment revenues calculated pursuant to Health & Safety Code Section 33607.5 and 33607.7 (the "Statutory Pass Through Payments") generated in the Project Area, with all affected taxing entities. The obligation to make Statutory Pass Through Payments is attributable to the adoption of the 2009 Redevelopment P Ian Amendment, which increased the annual tax increment cap amount contained in the original Redevelopment Plan. The Statutory Pass Through Payments will be calculated annually as follows, using the FY 2009-1 O assessed valuation of the Project Area as the adjusted base year for the purpose of the calculations, with 'Year 1" of such payments being FY 2010-11:

Tier A (Years 1-45) Tier B (Years 11-45) Tier C (Years 31-45)

Pass Through1 11

25% 21% + Tier A 14% +TiersA&B

(l) Applied to the taxing entity's share of tax increment, reduced by a pro--rata share of Agency's Former LMI Housing Set-aside. Although the Former LMI Housing Set-aside is no longer required under the Dissolution Act, the Act requires any pass through calculations which formerly considered such set-aside amounts to continue adjusting for such set-aside amounts post-dissolution.

County Administration Charges

The Santa Barbara County Auditor-Controller will deduct administration charges from the tax increment distributed to the Agency's RPTTF for the Project Area. The estimated administration charges (1.69% of gross tax increment, based on the actual FY 16-17 administration charge amount of $34,196) have been deducted from the projected tax revenues (see Exhibit A).

Assessment Appeals

In Santa Barbara County, a property owner desiring to reduce the assessed value of such owner's property in any one year must submit an application to the Santa Barbara County Assessment Appeals Board (the "Appeals Board"). Applications for any tax year must be submitted by November 30th of such tax year. The Appeals Board, within two years of each applicant's filing date, will hold a hearing and then either reduce the assessment or confirm the assessment.

Current appeals pending in the ProjectArea represent real property with a total assessed valuation of $8,946,391. Based on the actual valuation reductions allcwed by the Appeals Board for property in the Project Area over the last five years, it is not anticipated that the resolution of the current appeals pending will result in any valuation reductions in the Project Area.

The projections of Tax Revenues in Exhibit A have not been adjusted for any potential negative resolution of the current outstanding assessment appeals, as the outcome of such appeals cannot be predicted with certainty.

***

While UFI has taken steps to assure the accuracy of the data used in the formulation of these projections, we cannot insure that projected valuations will, in fact, be realized because actual values will most likely be affected by future events and conditions that cannot be predicted with certainty.

We believe that this report provides the Agency with a reasonable basis for demonstrating the available tax increment revenues generated by Guadalupe Redevelopment Project. We are available to answer any questions that you may have regarding this information.

Sincerely,

URBAN FUTURES, INC.
