10 cash remaining after the purchase of the Government Obligations will be sufficient to make payments when due of principal of, interest on, and redemption premium payable with respect to the Refunded Bonds.

The Refunding Plan calls for the Escrow Agent, pursuant to the Escrow Deposit Agreement, to pay, from the Escrow Deposit Fund, when due, interest on the Refunded Bonds through and including the redemption dates and, in accordance with the terms of the Refunded Bonds, respectively, to call the Refunded Bonds for early redemption (at a Redemption Price of 100% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued interest to the date of redemption as set forth in the Refunded Bonds) on the first optional redemption date as set forth in the Refunded Bonds.

11 DESCRIPTION OF THE REFUNDING BONDS General The Refunding Bonds are to be issued in the aggregate principal amount of $19,410,000. The Refunding Bonds shall be dated and bear interest from their date of issuance, payable initially on September 15, 2012 and semiannually thereafter on March 15 and September 15 of each year, at the rates per annum and mature as set forth on the front cover page of this Official Statement. The Refunding Bonds will be issued as fully registered book-entry bonds, and registered in the name of and held by Cede & Co. ( Cede ), as nominee for the Depository Trust Company, New York, New York ( DTC ), which will act as securities depository for the Refunding Bonds under its book-entry-only system. An individual purchaser may purchase a Refunding Bond in book-entry only form, without certificates, in denominations of $5,000, or any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess of $5,000. Provided DTC, or its nominee Cede, is the Registered Owner of the Refunding Bonds, the principal of and interest on the Refunding Bonds will be paid to DTC or Cede, as its nominee. See Book-Entry-Only System below. In the event the Refunding Bonds are no longer subject to the DTC Book-Entry-Only System, the principal and redemption premium, if any on the Refunding Bonds will be payable upon surrender of the Refunding Bonds at a designated corporate trust office of the Paying Agent. Interest on the Refunding Bonds will then be paid by check or bank draft mailed by the Paying Agent to the registered owner thereof as of the March 1 and September 1 preceding any interest payment date at their addresses on file with the Registrar. Book-Entry-Only System The description which follows of the procedures and record keeping with respect to beneficial ownership interests in the Refunding Bonds, payment of principal and interest, and other payments on the Refunding Bonds to DTC Participants or Beneficial Owners (as such terms are defined or used herein), confirmation and transfer of beneficial ownership interests in the Refunding Bonds and other related transactions by and between DTC, DTC Participants and Beneficial Owners, is based on certain information furnished by DTC to the Authority. Accordingly, the Authority does not make any representations concerning these matters. DTC will act as securities depository for the Refunding Bonds. The Refunding Bonds will be issued as fully-registered securities registered in the name of Cede & Co. (DTC s partnership nominee) or such other name as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. One fully registered bond certificate will be issued for each issue of Refunding Bonds, each in the aggregate principal amount of such issue, and will be deposited with DTC. DTC, the world s largest securities depository, is a limited-purpose trust company organized under the New York Banking Law, a banking organization within the meaning of the New York Banking Law, a member of the Federal Reserve System, a clearing corporation within the meaning of the New York Uniform Commercial Code, and a clearing agency registered pursuant to the provisions of Section 17A of the Securities Exchange Act of DTC holds and provides asset servicing for over 3.5 million issues of U.S. and non-u.s. equity issues, corporate and municipal debt issues, and money market instruments (from over 100 countries) that DTC s participants ( Direct Participants ) deposit with DTC. DTC also facilitates the post-trade settlement among Direct Participants of sales and other securities transactions in deposited securities, through electronic computerized book-entry transfers and pledges between Direct Participants accounts. This eliminates the need for physical movement of securities certificates. Direct Participants include both U.S. and non-u.s. securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, clearing corporations, and certain other organizations. DTC is a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation ( DTCC ). DTCC is the holding company for DTC, National Securities Clearing Corporation and Fixed Income Clearing Corporation, all of which are registered clearing agencies. DTCC is owned by the users of its regulated subsidiaries. Access to the DTC system is also available to others such as both U.S. and non-u.s. securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, and clearing corporations that clear through 5

12 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 Commission. More information about DTC can be found at and Purchases of Refunding Bonds under the DTC system must be made by or through Direct Participants, which will receive a credit for the Refunding Bonds on DTC s records. The ownership interest of each actual purchaser of each Refunding 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. Beneficial Owners are, however, expected to receive written confirmations providing details 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 ownership interests in the Refunding Bonds are to be accomplished by entries made on the books of Direct and Indirect Participants acting on behalf of Beneficial Owners. Beneficial Owners will not receive certificates representing their ownership interests in Refunding Bonds, except in the event that use of the book-entry system for the Refunding Bonds is discontinued. To facilitate subsequent transfers, all Refunding Bonds deposited by Direct Participants with DTC are registered in the name of DTC s partnership nominee, Cede & Co. or such other name as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. The deposit of Refunding Bonds with DTC and their registration in the name of Cede & Co. or such other DTC nominee do not effect any change in beneficial ownership. DTC has no knowledge of the actual Beneficial Owners of the Refunding Bonds; DTC s records reflect only the identity of the Direct Participants to whose accounts such Refunding 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 by DTC to Direct Participants, by Direct Participants to Indirect Participants, and by Direct Participants and Indirect Participants to Beneficial Owners will be governed by arrangements among them, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time to time. Beneficial Owners of the Refunding Bonds may wish to take certain steps to augment the transmission to them of notices of significant events with respect to the Refunding Bonds, such as redemptions, tenders, defaults, and proposed amendments to the Refunding Bond documents. Beneficial Owners of the Refunding Bonds may wish to ascertain that the nominee holding the Refunding Bonds for their benefit has agreed to obtain and transmit notices to Beneficial Owners. In the alternative, Beneficial Owners may wish to provide their names and addresses to the registrar and request that copies of notices be provided directly to them. Redemption notices shall be sent to DTC. If less than all of the Refunding Bonds within an issue are being redeemed, DTC s practice is to determine by lot the amount of the interest of each Direct Participant in such issue to be redeemed. Neither DTC nor Cede & Co. (nor any other DTC nominee) will consent or vote with respect to Refunding 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 Authority 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 the Refunding Bonds are credited on the record date (identified in a listing attached to the Omnibus Proxy). Principal and interest payments and redemption proceeds, if any, on the Refunding 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 Authority or the Trustee, on the 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 will be the responsibility of such Participant and not of DTC, nor its nominee, the Trustee or the Authority, subject to any 6

13 statutory or regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time to time. Payment of principal and interest and redemption proceeds, if any, to Cede & Co. (or such other nominee as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC) is the responsibility of the Authority or the Trustee, disbursement of such payments to Direct Participants is the responsibility of DTC, and disbursement of such payments to the Beneficial Owners will be the responsibility of Direct and Indirect Participants. DTC may discontinue providing its services as securities depository with respect to the Refunding Bonds at any time by giving reasonable notice to the Authority or the Trustee. Under such circumstances, in the event that a successor securities depository is not obtained, Refunding Bond certificates are required to be printed and delivered. The Authority may decide to discontinue use of the system of book-entry transfers through DTC (or a successor securities depository). In that event, Refunding Bond certificates will be printed and delivered. The information in this section concerning DTC and DTC s book-entry system has been obtained from sources that the Authority believes to be reliable, but the Authority takes no responsibility for the accuracy thereof. Discontinuation of Book-Entry-Only System In the event that the book-entry-only system is discontinued and the Beneficial Owners become registered owners of the Refunding Bonds, the following provisions apply: (i) the Refunding Bonds may be exchanged for an equal aggregate principal amount of Refunding Bonds in other authorized denominations and of the same maturity, upon surrender thereof at the principal corporate trust office of the Trustee; (ii) the transfer of any Refunding Bonds may be registered on the books maintained by the Paying Agent for such purposes only upon the surrender thereof to the Trustee together with the duly executed assignment in form satisfactory to the Authority and the Trustee; and (iii) for every exchange or registration of transfer of Refunding Bonds, the Trustee may make a charge sufficient to reimburse for any tax or other governmental charge required to be paid with respect to such exchange or registration of transfer of the Refunding Bonds. NEITHER THE AUTHORITY NOR THE TRUSTEE WILL HAVE ANY RESPONSIBILITY OR OBLIGATION TO ANY DIRECT PARTICIPANT, INDIRECT PARTICIPANT OR BENEFICIAL OWNER OR OTHER PERSON WITH RESPECT TO: (1) THE ACCURACY OF ANY RECORDS MAINTAINED BY DTC OR ANY DIRECT PARTICIPANT OR INDIRECT PARTICIPANT; (2) THE PAYMENT BY DTC OR ANY DIRECT PARTICIPANT OR INDIRECT PARTICIPANT OF ANY AMOUNT DUE TO ANY BENEFICIAL OWNER; (3) THE DELIVERY BY DTC OR ANY DIRECT PARTICIPANT OR INDIRECT PARTICIPANT OF ANY REDEMPTION OR OTHER NOTICE TO ANY BENEFICIAL OWNER THAT IS REQUIRED OR PERMITTED UNDER THE TERMS OF THE RESOLUTION TO BE GIVEN TO HOLDERS OF THE REFUNDING BONDS; OR (4) ANY OTHER ACTION TAKEN BY DTC OR CEDE AS REGISTERED OWNER OF THE REFUNDING BONDS. THE CURRENT RULES APPLICABLE TO DTC ARE ON FILE WITH THE FEDERAL SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION, AND THE CURRENT PROCEDURES OF DTC TO BE FOLLOWED IN DEALING WITH DTC DIRECT PARTICIPANTS ARE ON FILE WITH DTC. 7

14 Redemption of Refunding Bonds Make-Whole Redemption. The Refunding Bonds are subject to redemption prior to maturity at the option of the Authority at any time, in whole or in part, on any Business Day at the Make-Whole Redemption Price. "Make-Whole Redemption Price" means the greater of: (i) 100% of the principal amount of the Refunding Bonds to be redeemed and (ii) the sum of the present value of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Refunding Bonds to be redeemed to the maturity date of such Refunding Bonds, not including any portion of those payments of interest accrued and unpaid as of the date on which such Refunding Bonds are to be redeemed, discounted to the date on which such Refunding Bonds are to be redeemed on a semi-annual basis, assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months, at the Treasury Rate plus 15 basis points, plus accrued and unpaid interest on the Refunding Bonds to be redeemed on the redemption date. "Treasury Rate" means, with respect to any redemption date for a particular Refunding Bond, the yield to maturity as of such redemption date of the United States Treasury securities with a constant maturity (as compiled and published in the most recent Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15 (519) that has become publicly available five (5) Business Days prior to the redemption date (excluding inflation indexed securities) (or, if such Statistical Release is no longer published, any publicly available source of similar market data)) most nearly equal to the period from the redemption date to the stated maturity date of the Refunding Bonds to be redeemed; provided, however, that if the period from the redemption date to the stated maturity date is less than one year, the weekly average yield on the actually traded United States Treasury securities adjusted to a constant maturity of one year will be used. Notice of Redemption When the Refunding Bonds have been selected for redemption pursuant to any provision of the Resolution, the Authority shall give written notice to the Trustee of its election or direction to so redeem at least fifty (50) days prior to the redemption date or such shorter period as shall be agreed to in writing by the Trustee. Upon receipt of the notice of redemption given by the Authority, the Trustee shall give written notice of the redemption of such Refunding Bonds in the name of the Authority, which notice shall set forth: (i) the date fixed for redemption, (ii) the Redemption Price to be paid, (iii) that such Refunding Bonds will be redeemed at the principal office of the Paying Agent, (iv) if less than all of such Refunding Bonds shall be called for redemption, the distinctive numbers and letters, if any, of such Refunding Bonds to be redeemed, and (v) in the case of Refunding Bonds to be redeemed in part only, the portion of the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. Such notice shall further state that on the redemption date there shall become due and payable the Redemption Price of all Refunding Bonds to be redeemed, together with interest accrued thereon to the redemption date, and that, from and after such date, interest thereon shall cease to accrue. If any Refunding Bond is to be redeemed in part only, the notice of redemption that relates to such Refunding Bond shall state also that on or after the redemption date, upon surrender of such Refunding Bond, the Holder thereof shall be entitled to a new Refunding Bond or Refunding Bonds of like Series, bearing interest at the same rate and in aggregate principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of such Refunding Bond. The notice required to be given by the Trustee shall be sent by registered mail to the registered Holders of the Refunding Bonds to be redeemed, at their addresses as they appear on the bond registration books of the Authority, not less than thirty (30) nor more than forty-five (45) days prior to the redemption date. The failure to give notice of the redemption of any Refunding Bond or portion thereof to the registered Holder of such Refunding Bonds shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any Refunding Bonds for which notice of redemption has been given in accordance with the provisions of the Resolution. 8

15 SECURITY FOR THE REFUNDING BONDS General The Refunding Bonds constitute direct and special obligations of the Authority. The Refunding Bonds are solely secured by the pledge of the Pledged Property which includes the Series 2012 Local Unit Refunding Bonds, the Funds which are established and created under the Resolution for the Refunding Bonds and which are held by the Trustee under the terms of the Resolution, and all other moneys, securities or funds pledged for the payment of the principal or Redemption Price of, and interest on the Refunding Bonds in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Resolution. See APPENDIX D - SUMMARY OF CERTAIN PROVISIONS OF THE RESOLUTION hereto. The Refunding Bonds are secured by the County Guaranty, a full, irrevocable and unconditional guarantee from the County, to pay, when due, the principal of and interest (but not the redemption premium) on the Refunding Bonds. The County has the power and the obligation to cause the levy of ad valorem taxes upon all taxable property within the jurisdiction of the County without limitation as to rate or amount for the payment of its obligations under the County Guaranty. The Authority has no power to levy or collect taxes. The Refunding Bonds are neither a debt nor a liability of the State or any political subdivision of the State other than the Authority (limited solely to the Pledged Property) and the County (limited solely to the County Guaranty which shall not include the payment of redemption premium, if any). The provisions of the Refunding Bonds and the Resolution are deemed to be and do constitute contracts by and among the Authority, the Trustee and the registered owners, from time to time, of the Refunding Bonds and the security interest which is granted and the pledge which is made in the Resolution and the covenants and agreements which are set forth in the Resolution to be performed on behalf of the Authority shall be for the equal benefit, protection and security of the registered owners of any and all Refunding Bonds, all of which, regardless of the time or times of their issue or maturity, shall be of equal rank without preference, priority or distinction of any of the Refunding Bonds over any other thereof, except as expressly provided in or pursuant to the terms of the Resolution. Series 2012 Local Unit Purchase Agreements The Authority has entered into each Series 2012 Local Unit Purchase Agreement to secure the related Series 2012 Local Unit Loans. Pursuant to each Series 2012 Local Unit Purchase Agreement, the Authority will purchase a Series 2012 Local Unit Refunding Bond in the principal amount equal to the related Series 2012 Local Unit Loan. Each Series 2012 Local Unit will be required to make principal and interest payments (the Series 2012 Local Unit Repayments ) to the Authority pursuant to its Series 2012 Local Unit Refunding Bond. The aggregate of the Series 2012 Local Unit Repayments made by the Series 2012 Local Units will be sufficient to enable the Authority to pay the principal or Redemption Price of, and interest on the Refunding Bonds. See APPENDIX D - SUMMARY OF CERTAIN PROVISIONS OF THE SERIES 2012 LOCAL UNIT REFUNDING BONDS AND SERIES 2012 LOCAL UNIT PURCHASE AGREEMENTS herein. Obligation of the Series 2012 Local Units The obligation of each Series 2012 Local Unit to repay its Series 2012 Local Unit Loan is a direct and general obligation of the Series 2012 Local Unit payable from its general revenues. In the opinion of bond counsel to each of the Series 2012 Local Units, each respective Series 2012 Local Unit Refunding Bond is a valid and legally binding general obligation of the applicable Series 2012 Local Units and, unless paid from other sources, is payable from ad valorem taxes levied upon all the taxable property within the jurisdiction of such Series 2012 Local Unit, without limitation as to rate or amount. For general information on the County and certain of the other Series 2012 Local Units, see Appendices A and C, respectively, to this Official Statement. 9

16 Additional Security for the Series 2012 Local Unit Refunding Bonds Issued by the County For the purposes of the Vocational School and Issued by Other School Districts The Series 2012 Local Unit Refunding Bonds which are issued by the County for the purposes of the County Vocational School and issued by other school districts located in the County are secured by the School Bond Reserve established in the Fund for the Support of Free Public Schools of the State of New Jersey (the Fund ) in accordance with the New Jersey School Bond Reserve Act, N.J.S.A. 18A:56-17 et seq. (P.L. 1980, c. 72, approved July 16, 1980, as amended by P.L. 2003, c. 118, approved July 1, 2003 (the School Act )). Amendments to the School Act provide that the Fund will be divided into two School Bond Reserve accounts. All bonds issued prior to July 1, 2003 shall be benefited by a School Bond Reserve account funded in an amount equal to 1-1/2% of the aggregate issued and outstanding bonded indebtedness of counties, municipalities or school districts for school purposes issued prior to July 1, 2003 (the Old School Bond Reserve Account ) and all bonds, including the Series 2012 Local Unit Refunding Bond, which are issued by school districts on or after July 1, 2003 shall be benefited by a School Bond Reserve account equal to 1% of the aggregate issued and outstanding bonded indebtedness of counties, municipalities or school districts for school purposes issued on or after July 1, 2003 (the New School Bond Reserve Account ), provided such amounts do not exceed the moneys available in the Fund. If a municipality, county or school district is unable to make payment of principal of or interest on any of its bonds issued for school purposes, the trustees of the Fund will purchase such bonds at par value and will pay to the bondholders the interest due or to become due within the limits of funds available in the applicable School Bond Reserve account in accordance with the provisions of the School Act. The School Act provides that the School Bond Reserve shall be composed entirely of direct obligations of the United States government or obligations guaranteed by the full faith and credit of the United States government. Securities representing at least one-third of the minimal market value to be held in the School Bond Reserve shall be due to mature within one year of issuance or purchase. Beginning with the fiscal year ending on June 30, 2003 and continuing on each June 30 thereafter, the State Treasurer shall calculate the amount necessary to fully fund the Old School Bond Reserve Account and the New School Bond Reserve Account as required pursuant to the School Act. To the extent moneys are insufficient to maintain each account in the School Bond Reserve at the required levels, the State agrees that the State Treasurer shall, no later than September 15 of the fiscal year following the June 30 calculation date, pay to the trustees for deposit in the School Bond Reserve such amounts as may be necessary to maintain the Old School Bond Reserve Account and the New School Bond Reserve Account at the levels required by the School Act. No moneys may be borrowed from the Fund to provide liquidity to the State unless the Old School Bond Reserve Account and New School Bond Reserve Account each are at the levels certified as full funding on the most recent June 30 calculation date. The amount of the School Bond Reserve in each account is pledged as security for the prompt payment to holders of bonds benefited by such account of the principal of and the interest on such bonds in the event of the inability of the issuer to make such payments. In the event the amounts in either the Old School Bond Reserve Account or the New School Bond Reserve Account fall below the amount required to make payments on bonds, the amounts in both accounts are available to make payments for bonds secured by the reserve. The School Act further provides that the amount of any payment of interest or purchase price of school bonds paid pursuant to the School Act shall be deducted from the appropriation or apportionment of State aid, other than certain State aid which may be otherwise restricted pursuant to law, payable to the district, county or municipality and shall not obligate the State to make, nor entitle the district, county or municipality to receive any additional appropriation or apportionment. Any amount so deducted shall be applied by the State Treasurer to satisfy the obligation of the district, county or municipality arising as a result of the payment of interest or purchase price of bonds pursuant to the School Act. 10
