Tax Allocation Financing The Redevelopment Law provides a means for financing redevelopment projects based upon an allocation of tax increment revenues collected within a redevelopment project area. With limited exceptions, taxes collected upon any increase in assessed valuation of a taxable property over the base roll are allocated to a redevelopment agency and may be pledged by a redevelopment agency to the repayment of any indebtedness incurred in financing or refinancing a redevelopment project. Subject to certain exceptions and prior claims on such tax increment revenues, the Agency has pledged certain tax increment revenues with respect to the Project Area to the payment of the principal of, premium (if any) and interest on the Bonds. See SECURITY FOR THE BONDS. 3

The par amount of any Bonds so purchased by the Agency and tendered to the Trustee in any twelve-month period ending on August 1, in any calendar year shall be credited towards and shall reduce the next mandatory sinking fund payments required to be made in the order in which they are required to be made pursuant to the Indentures, as applicable. Notice of Redemption. As provided in the Indentures, notice of redemption will be mailed by first class mail, postage prepaid, not less than thirty (30) nor more than sixty (60) days prior to the redemption date, to each of the registered owners of the Bonds of either series designated for redemption at their addresses appearing on the related series Bond registration books of the Trustee. Such notice shall also be given by first class mail, postage prepaid, confirmed facsimile transmission, or overnight delivery service, to each of the Securities Depositories named in the Indentures and to one or more of the Information Services named in the Indenture. Neither failure to receive such notice nor any defect in the notice so mailed will affect the sufficiency of the proceedings for the redemption of any Bonds or the cessation of interest thereon on the redemption date. Selection of Bonds for Redemption. Whenever provision is made in the Indentures for less than all of the Bonds of any series or maturity thereof to be redeemed, the Trustee will select the Bonds of such series to be redeemed from all the Bonds of such series not previously called for redemption, by lot in any manner which the Agency in its sole discretion shall deem appropriate under the circumstances. For purposes of such selection, all the Bonds of such series will be deemed to be comprised of separate $5,000 portions and such portions will be treated as separate bonds which may be separately redeemed. Effect of Redemption. If notice of redemption has been duly given as aforesaid and money for the payment of the redemption price of the Bonds of such series called for redemption is held by the Trustee, then on the redemption date designated in such notice the Bonds of such series so called for redemption will become due and payable, and from and after the date so designated interest on such Bonds of such series will cease to accrue, and the owners of such Bonds of such series shall have no rights in respect thereof except to receive payment of the redemption price thereof. Purchase in Lieu of Redemption. In lieu of redemption, the Agency is authorized to purchase Bonds of either series on the open market at any time at a price (inclusive of brokerage fees) not to exceed the par amount of the Bonds of such series so purchased, plus any applicable premium. 9

Book-Entry Only System The Bonds of each series will be issued as one fully registered bond without coupons for each maturity of each series and, when issued, will be registered in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee of The Depository Trust Company, New York, New York (the DTC ). DTC will act as securities depository of each series of the Bonds. Individual purchases may be made in book-entry form only, in the principal amount of $5,000 and integral multiples thereof. Purchasers will not receive certificates representing their interest in the Bonds of either series purchased. Principal and interest will be paid to DTC, which will in turn remit such principal and interest to its participants for subsequent disbursement to the beneficial owners of the Bonds of each series as described herein. So long as DTC s book-entry system is in effect with respect to the Bonds of each series, notices to Owners of the Bonds by the Agency or the Trustee will be sent to DTC. Notices and communication by DTC to its participants, and then to the beneficial owners of the Bonds, will be governed by arrangements among them, subject to then effective statutory or regulatory requirements. See APPENDIX F BOOK-ENTRY ONLY SYSTEM. In the event that such book-entry system is discontinued with respect to the Bonds, the Agency will execute and deliver replacements in the form of registered certificates and, thereafter, the Bonds will be transferable and exchangeable on the terms and conditions provided in the Indenture. In addition, the following provisions would then apply: The principal of, and redemption premium, if any, on the Bonds will be payable on the surrender thereof at maturity or the redemption date, as applicable, at the corporate trust office of the Trustee in Los Angeles, California. The interest on the Bonds will be payable by check mailed on each Interest Payment Date to the registered owners thereof as shown on the registration books of the Trustee as of the close of business on the Record Date immediately prior to such Interest Payment Date; provided, that a registered owner of $1,000,000 or more in aggregate principal amount of Bonds of a series may specify in writing prior to the Record Date that the interest payment be made by wire transfer. 10

The Agency has made a covenant to annually calculate the tax increment received against the remaining tax increment limitation. To the extent that the tax increment remaining to be received against the tax increment limitation is less than 110% of the total debt service on the Series A Bonds, the Series B Bonds and all Senior Lien Bonds, then the Agency will cause bonds to be redeemed, in order of seniority of lien, so that the remaining tax increment limitation shall be above 110% of debt service on the Series A Bonds, the Series B Bonds and the Senior Lien Bonds. 11

SECURITY FOR THE BONDS The Bonds are special obligations of the Agency, payable solely from the sources described below. The Bonds are not a debt of the City, the State of California or any of its political subdivisions, and neither the City, the State nor any of its political subdivisions is liable therefor. The Bonds do not constitute an indebtedness within the meaning of any constitutional or statutory debt limit or restriction. The principal of and interest on the Series A Bonds are payable from the Subordinate Tax Revenues received by the Agency and of the money on deposit in the Reserve Account for the Series A Bonds, including investment earnings thereon, described below. The principal of and interest on the Series B Bonds are payable from Second Subordinate Tax Revenues and from the money on deposit in the Reserve Account for the Series B Bonds including the investment earnings thereon, described below. The principal, interest and premium, if any, on the Bonds of either series may also be paid with any other funds the Agency may have available for that purpose. Tax Allocation Financing Generally The Redevelopment Law provides a means for financing redevelopment projects based upon an allocation of tax increment revenues collected within a project area. Once the taxable valuation of a project area last equalized prior to adoption of the redevelopment plan, or base roll, is established, except for any period during which the taxable valuation drops below the base year level, the taxing agencies thereafter receive the taxes produced by the levy of the then current tax rate upon the base roll. With certain limited exceptions, taxes collected upon any increase in taxable valuation over the base roll are allocated to a redevelopment agency and may be pledged to the repayment of bonds issued by the redevelopment agency. Redevelopment agencies themselves have no authority to levy property taxes and must look specifically to the allocation of tax increment revenues produced as indicated above. Allocation of Taxes As provided in the Redevelopment Plan, and pursuant to Article 6 of Chapter 6 of the Redevelopment Law and Section 16 of Article XVI of the Constitution of the State of California, taxes levied upon taxable property in the Project Area (or applicable portions thereof) each year by or for the benefit of the State of California, any city, county, city and county, district or other public corporation (the taxing agencies ) for fiscal years beginning after the effective date of the Project Area (or applicable portions thereof) are divided as follows: (a) The portion equal to the amount of taxes produced by the then current tax rate, applied to the assessed valuation of such property in the Project Area (or applicable portion thereof) as shown on the applicable base year assessment roll as last equalized prior to the establishment of the Project Area (or applicable portion thereof) shall be, when collected, paid into the funds of those respective taxing agencies; (b) Except for taxes which are attributable to a tax levy by a taxing agency for the purpose of producing revenues to repay bonded indebtedness approved by the voters of the taxing agency on or after January 1, 1989, which shall be allocated (and when collected shall be paid) to the respective taxing agency, that portion of levied taxes each year in excess of such amount (including, to the extent permitted by law, all payments and reimbursements, if any, to the Agency specifically attributable to ad valorem taxes lost by reason of tax exemptions and tax rate limitations) will be paid to the Agency to pay the principal of and interest on loans to, money advanced to, or indebtedness incurred by the Agency to finance redevelopment projects. Revenues generated as set forth above and allocated to the Agency are generally referred to as tax increment revenues. Tax Revenues (as defined below) that secure the Series A Bonds and any additional parity bonds to be issued under the Series A Indenture and the Series B Bonds and any additional parity obligations issued under the Series B Indenture are a portion of such tax increment revenues. Tax 13

Revenues are generally those tax increment revenues (including housing set-aside revenues to the extent that such revenues are permitted to pay debt service on the Bonds (see LIMITATIONS ON TAX REVENUES Housing Set-Asides ) received by the Agency within limitations upon the Redevelopment Plan ( Plan Limitations, as described below), and remaining after deductions for payments to taxing agencies pursuant to Tax Sharing Agreements (see THE PROJECT AREA Tax Sharing Agreements ) or Section 33607.5 of the Redevelopment Law (see THE PROJECT AREA Section 33607.5 Pass- Through Payments ) to the extent that such Tax Sharing Agreements or such statutory pass-through payments create a prior, unsubordinated lien on tax increment revenues. As used herein, the term Plan Limitations means the limitations contained or incorporated in the Redevelopment Plan on (a) the aggregate principal amount of indebtedness payable from tax increment revenues which may be outstanding at any time, (b) the aggregate amount of taxes which may be allocated to the Agency pursuant to the Redevelopment Plan, (c) the period of time for establishing or incurring indebtedness payable from tax increment revenues, (d) the period of time for receiving tax increment revenues to repay indebtedness and (e) the period of time for the duration and effectiveness of the Redevelopment Plan, in each case established pursuant to Section 33333.2, 33333.4 or 33333.6 of the Redevelopment Law. See LIMITATIONS ON TAX REVENUES Plan Limitations. Pursuant to the provisions of the Indentures, the Agency has pledged that portion of the tax increment revenues that constitute the Subordinate Tax Revenues, as defined below, for repayment of the Series A Bonds and the Second Subordinate Tax Revenues, as defined below, for repayment of the Series B Bonds. The 2003 Bonds and 2005 Bonds are equally secured by a first pledge of and lien of all of the Tax Revenues and a first and exclusive pledge of and lien upon all of the money in certain funds and accounts created pursuant to the Senior Indenture including all amounts derived from the investment of such moneys, subject to the application in accordance with the Senior Indenture, without preference or priority for series, issue, number, sale date, date of execution or date of delivery. The Series A Bonds and any parity obligations issued under the Series A Indenture are equally secured by a first pledge of and lien of all of the Subordinate Tax Revenues and a first and exclusive pledge of and lien upon all of the money in certain funds and accounts created pursuant to the Series A Indenture including all amounts derived from the investment of such moneys, subject to the application in accordance with the Series A Indenture, without preference or priority for series, issue, number, sale date, date of execution or date of delivery. Except for the Subordinate Tax Revenues and such moneys, no funds or properties of the Agency are pledged to, or otherwise liable for, the payment of principal of or interest on the Series A Bonds. Subordinate Tax Revenues are moneys paid by the Agency to the Trustee derived from (a) that portion of taxes in the Redevelopment Project and received by the Agency, which is allocated to and paid into a special fund of the Agency pursuant to Article 6 of Chapter 6 of the Law and Section 19 of Article XVI of the Constitution of the State of California, all as more particularly set forth in the Series A Indenture, (b) reimbursements, subventions, including payments to the Agency with respect to personal property within the Redevelopment Project pursuant to Section 16110, et seq. of the Government Code of the State, or other payments made by the State with respect to any property taxes that would otherwise be due on real or personal property but for an exemption of such from such taxes. Subordinate Tax Revenues shall not include (i) any amounts payable by the Agency under agreements entered into pursuant to Section 33401 of the Law prior to the date hereof, except agreements which are subordinate in payment by their respective terms, (ii) all amounts required to be paid to entities other than the Agency pursuant to statutory tax sharing imposed by Section 33607.5 of the law, (iii) that portion of Tax Revenues required by Section 33334.2 of the Law to be used by the Agency for increasing and improving the supply of low and moderate income housing, and (iv) the amounts necessary to pay debt service on the Senior Lien Bonds. 14

The Series B Bonds and any parity obligations issued under the Series B Indenture are equally secured by a first pledge of and lien of all of the Second Subordinate Tax Revenues and a first and exclusive pledge of and lien upon all of the money in certain funds and accounts created pursuant to the Series B Indenture including all amounts derived from the investment of such moneys, subject to the application in accordance with the Series B Indenture, without preference or priority for series, issue, number, sale date, date of execution or date of delivery. Except for the Second Subordinate Tax Revenues and such moneys, no funds or properties of the Agency are pledged to, or otherwise liable for, the payment of principal of or interest on the Series B Bonds. The Second Subordinate Tax Revenues are paid by the Agency to the Trustee derived from (a) that portion of taxes in the Redevelopment Project and received by the Agency, which is allocated to and paid into a special fund of the Agency pursuant to Article 6 of Chapter 6 of the Law and Section 19 of Article XVI of the Constitution of the State of California, all as more particularly set forth in the Series B Indenture, including a portion of the amount required by Section 33334.2 of the Law to be used by the Agency to increase and improve the supply of Low and Moderate Income Housing, (b) reimbursements, subventions, including payments to the Agency with respect to personal property within the Redevelopment Project pursuant to Section 16110, et seq. of the Government Code of the State, or other payments made by the State with respect to any property taxes that would otherwise be due on real or personal property but for an exemption of such from such taxes. Second Subordinate Tax Revenues shall not include (i) any amounts payable by the Agency under agreements entered into pursuant to Section 33401 of the Law prior to the date hereof, except agreements which are subordinate in payment by their respective terms, (ii) all amounts required to be paid to entities other than the Agency pursuant to statutory tax sharing imposed by Section 33607.5 of the law, and (iii) the amounts necessary to pay debt service on the Senior and Subordinate Lien Bonds. Subordinate Tax Revenues are deposited into the Special Funds established pursuant to the Series A Indenture and are pledged in their entirety to the payment of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Series A Bonds until such Series A Bonds have been paid or until moneys have been set aside irrevocably for that purpose. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Series A Indenture provides that if the Trustee has deposited in the Series A Special Fund Tax Revenues sufficient to pay 100% of applicable Annual Debt Service on the Series A Bonds for the then current Bond Year (as defined in the Series A Indenture) and to maintain the Series A Reserve Account in an amount equal to the Series A Reserve Requirement, then the Subordinate Tax Revenues subsequently received during that Bond Year may be used by the Agency for any lawful purpose. See APPENDIX E SUMMARY OF LEGAL DOCUMENTS. Second Subordinate Tax Revenues are deposited into the Special Funds established pursuant to the Series B Indenture and are pledged in their entirety to the payment of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Series B Bonds until such Series B Bonds have been paid or until moneys have been set aside irrevocably for that purpose. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Series B Indenture provides that if the Trustee has deposited in the Series B Special Fund Tax Revenues sufficient to pay 100% of applicable Annual Debt Service on the Series B Bonds for the then current Bond Year (as defined in the Series B Indenture) and to maintain the Series B Reserve Account in an amount equal to the Series B Reserve Requirement, then the Second Subordinate Tax Revenues subsequently received during that Bond Year may be used by the Agency for any lawful purpose. See APPENDIX E SUMMARY OF LEGAL DOCUMENTS. The Agency has no power to levy and collect taxes, and any legislative property tax de-emphasis or provision of additional sources of income to taxing agencies having the effect of reducing the property tax rate must necessarily reduce the amount of Tax Revenues that would otherwise be available to pay the principal of, and interest on the Bonds of each series. Likewise, broadened property tax exemptions could have a similar effect. 15

Issuance of Additional Bonds Series A Bonds. The Series A Bonds are issued on a subordinate basis to the Senior Lien Bonds. The Agency may not issue additional obligations including bonds on a parity with the Senior Lien Bonds, which are senior to the Series A Bonds pursuant to the Series A Indenture. In addition to the Series A Bonds, the Agency may, by a supplemental indenture, issue parity bonds payable from Subordinate Tax Revenues as and to the extent provided in the Series A Indenture and secured by the pledge made under the Series A Indenture equally and ratably with the Series A Bonds previously issued. The Agency may issue, and the Trustee may authenticate and deliver to the purchasers thereof, parity bonds, in such principal amount as shall be determined by the Agency, but only upon compliance by the Agency with the provisions of the Series A Indenture hereof and any additional requirements set forth in said supplemental indenture and subject to the following specific conditions, which are hereby made conditions precedent to the issuance of any such parity bonds: (a) Indenture; No event of default shall have occurred and then be continuing under the Series A (b) A Tax Revenue certificate shall be delivered to the Trustee which shows that the amount of Tax Revenues, based on assessed valuation of property in the Project Area as evidenced in the written records of the County shall be at least equal to 125% of the sum of Annual Debt Service on the Senior Lien Bonds and the Series A Bonds (including such parity debt) for the then current Fiscal Year and all subsequent Fiscal Years through the final maturity of the Series A Bonds and any parity debt. The Tax Revenue certificate shall also show that the amount of Tax Revenues, including debt service on the Senior Lien Bonds, based on assessed valuation of property in the Project Area as evidenced in the written records of the County, and excluding the taxpayer with the highest assessed value in the Project Area, shall be at least equal to 100% of the sum of annual debt service on the Senior Lien Bonds and the Series A Bonds (including such parity debt). For purposes of this calculation, Tax Revenues will be calculated using a 1% tax rate and shall further be reduced by (i) the amount of subventions paid by the State or any other amount appropriated by the State for the Agency; (ii) unless the Teeter Plan is currently in effect and the County has made no announcement that the Teeter Plan would terminate, the amount derived by applying the average percentage by which the actual tax collections in the Project Area are less than the amount of the tax levy in the Project Area for the immediately preceding five Fiscal Years; and (iii) the maximum percentage of Tax Revenues payable to a taxing entity pursuant to all non-subordinated Pass Through Agreements, regardless of whether such maximum percentage is in effect for that year. For example, if a Pass Through Agreement includes a step up provision or takes effect upon the occurrence of some event, that pass through shall be calculated at the maximum rate pursuant to the step up or as if the event had already taken place; (c) The Agency shall certify to the Trustee that the aggregate amount of the principal of and interest on all Outstanding Series A Bonds (including the Senior Lien Bonds) coming due and payable following the issuance of such parity bonds shall not exceed the maximum amount of Tax Revenues permitted under the Redevelopment Plan to be allocated and paid to the Agency following the issuance of such parity bonds, and shall not exceed any limitation on the time during which such tax increment revenues may be received; (d) The Supplemental Indenture authorizing the issuance of parity bonds shall provide that (i) interest on such parity bonds shall be calculated at a fixed interest rate if the Agency determines in such Supplemental Indenture that it is to be paid on a current basis, shall be payable on February 1 and August 1 in each year of the term of such parity bonds except the first twelve-month period during which interest may be payable on any February 1 or August 1, and (ii) the principal of such parity bonds shall be payable on August 1 in any year, as determined by the Agency, in which principal is payable; (e) Money shall be deposited in the Reserve Account or in a subaccount therein (or a reserve fund letter of credit, bank insurance policy or other comparable credit facility provided) in an amount equal to the Reserve Requirement for all Outstanding Series A Bonds, including such parity bonds; and 16

(f) The Agency shall deliver to the Trustee a certificate of the Agency certifying that the conditions precedent to the issuance of such parity bonds set forth in the Series A Indenture have been satisfied and that the deposit into the Reserve Account for the Series A Bonds as set forth above has been made. With respect to the issuance of parity bonds, Outstanding Series A Bonds and parity bonds shall not include a principal amount of such parity bonds, determined on such basis among maturities as the Agency may determine, equal to the proceeds of such parity bonds to be deposited in an escrow fund established for such parity bonds (the Series A Escrowed Bonds ), provided that the Supplemental Indenture authorizing the issuance of such parity bonds shall provide that: (1) Such proceeds shall be invested in Permitted Investments, and an amount equal to the difference between the projected interest earnings on such proceeds and the interest due on the Escrowed Bonds shall be deposited in the Interest Account so as to pay interest on the Series A Escrowed Bonds as it becomes due and payable; (2) Moneys may be transferred from the escrow fund established for the Series A Escrowed Bonds only if a Tax Revenue certificate shall be delivered to the Trustee which shows that the amount of Tax Revenues based on assessed valuation of property in the Project Area as evidenced in the written records of the County shall be at least equal to 125% of the sum of annual debt service on the Series A Bonds (including such parity debt) and annual debt service on the Senior Lien Bonds for the then current Fiscal Year and all subsequent Fiscal Years through the final maturity of the Series A Bonds and any parity debt, and 100% of annual debt service on the Senior Lien Bonds and the Series A Bonds excluding the taxpayer in the Project Area with the highest assessed valuation. For purposes of this calculation, Tax Revenues will be calculated using a 1% tax rate and shall further be reduced by (i) the amount of subventions paid by the State of California or any other amount appropriated by the State for the Agency; (ii) unless the Teeter Plan is currently in effect and the County has made no announcement that the Teeter Plan would terminate, the amount derived by applying the average percentage by which the actual tax collections in the Project Area are less than the amount of the tax levy in the Project Area for the immediately preceding five Fiscal Years; and (iii) the maximum percentage of Tax Revenues payable to a taxing entity pursuant to all non-subordinated Pass Through Agreements, regardless of whether such maximum percentage is in effect for that year. For example, if a Pass Through Agreement includes a step up provision or takes effect upon the occurrence of some event, that pass through shall be calculated at the maximum rate pursuant to the step up or as if the event had already taken place; (3) Such parity bonds shall be redeemed from moneys remaining on deposit in the escrow fund established for the Series A Escrowed Bonds at the expiration of a specified escrow period in such manner as may be determined by the Agency in the supplemental indenture; and (4) The Insurer shall be provided with notice of the issuance of such Series A Escrow Bonds and a copy of the related Supplemental Indenture. The Agency shall not issue any indebtedness bearing interest at variable rates. For a further discussion of Additional Bonds, see APPENDIX E-1 SERIES A BONDS SUMMARY OF LEGAL DOCUMENTS Issuance of Additional Bonds herein. 17

Series B Bonds. The Series B Bonds are issued on a subordinate basis to the Senior and Subordinate Lien Bonds. The Agency may issue bonds on a basis senior to the Series B Indenture so long as the provisions of the Senior and Subordinate Lien Bonds have been satisfied. In addition to the Series B Bonds, the Agency may, by a supplemental indenture, issue parity bonds payable from Second Subordinate Tax Revenues as and to the extent provided in the Series B Indenture and secured by the pledge made under the Series B Indenture equally and ratably with the Series B Bonds previously issued. The Agency may issue, and the Trustee may authenticate and deliver to the purchasers thereof, parity bonds, in such principal amount as shall be determined by the Agency, but only upon compliance by the Agency with the provisions of the Series B Indenture hereof and any additional requirements set forth in said supplemental indenture and subject to the following specific conditions, which are hereby made conditions precedent to the issuance of any such parity bonds: (a) Indenture; No event of default shall have occurred and then be continuing under the Series B (b) A Tax Revenue certificate shall be delivered to the Trustee which shows that the amount of Tax Revenues, based on assessed valuation of property in the Project Area as evidenced in the written records of the County shall be at least equal to 110% of the sum of annual debt service on the Series B Bonds (including parity debt) and annual debt service on the Senior and Subordinate Lien Bonds for the then current Fiscal Year and all subsequent Fiscal Years through the final maturity of the Series B Bonds and any parity debt. For purposes of this calculation, Tax Revenues will be calculated using a 1% tax rate and shall further be reduced by (i) the amount of subventions paid by the State or any other amount appropriated by the State for the Agency; (ii) unless the Teeter Plan is currently in effect and the County has made no announcement that the Teeter Plan would terminate, the amount derived by applying the average percentage by which the actual tax collections in the Project Area are less than the amount of the tax levy in the Project Area for the immediately preceding five Fiscal Years; and (iii) the maximum percentage of Tax Revenues payable to a taxing entity pursuant to all non-subordinated Pass Through Agreements, regardless of whether such maximum percentage is in effect for that year. For example, if a Pass Through Agreement includes a step up provision or takes effect upon the occurrence of some event, that pass through shall be calculated at the maximum rate pursuant to the step up or as if the event had already taken place; (c) The Agency shall certify to the Trustee that the aggregate amount of the principal of and interest on all Outstanding Series B Bonds (including the Senior and Subordinate Lien Bonds) coming due and payable following the issuance of such parity bonds shall not exceed the maximum amount of Tax Revenues permitted under the Redevelopment Plan to be allocated and paid to the Agency following the issuance of such parity bonds, and shall not exceed any limitation on the time during which such tax increment revenues may be received; (d) The Supplemental Indenture authorizing the issuance of parity bonds shall provide that (i) interest on such parity bonds shall be calculated at a fixed interest rate if the Agency determines in such Supplemental Indenture that it is to be paid on a current basis, shall be payable on February 1 and August 1 in each year of the term of such parity bonds except the first twelve-month period during which interest may be payable on any February 1 or August 1, and (ii) the principal of such parity bonds shall be payable on August 1 in any year, as determined by the Agency, in which principal is payable; (e) Money shall be deposited in the Reserve Account for the Series B Bonds or in a subaccount therein (or a reserve fund letter of credit, bank insurance policy or other comparable credit facility provided) in an amount equal to the Reserve Requirement for all Outstanding Series B Bonds, including such parity bonds; and (f) The Agency shall deliver to the Trustee a certificate of the Agency certifying that the conditions precedent to the issuance of such parity bonds set forth in the Series B Indenture have been satisfied and that the deposit into the Reserve Account as set forth above has been made. 18

With respect to the issuance of parity bonds, Outstanding Series B Bonds and parity bonds shall not include a principal amount of such parity bonds, determined on such basis among maturities as the Agency may determine, equal to the proceeds of such parity bonds to be deposited in an escrow fund established for such parity bonds (the Series B Escrowed Bonds ), provided that the Supplemental Indenture authorizing the issuance of such parity bonds shall provide that: (1) Such proceeds shall be invested in Permitted Investments, and an amount equal to the difference between the projected interest earnings on such proceeds and the interest due on the Series B Escrowed Bonds shall be deposited in the Interest Account so as to pay interest on the Series B Escrowed Bonds as it becomes due and payable; (2) Moneys may be transferred from the escrow fund established for the Series B Escrowed Bonds only if a Tax Revenue certificate shall be delivered to the Trustee which shows that the amount of Tax Revenues based on assessed valuation of property in the Project Area as evidenced in the written records of the County shall be at least equal to 110% of the sum of annual debt service on the Series B Bonds (including such parity debt) and annual debt service on the Senior and Subordinate Lien Bonds for the then current Fiscal Year and all subsequent Fiscal Years through the final maturity of the Series B Bonds and any parity debt. For purposes of this calculation, Tax Revenues will be calculated using a 1% tax rate and shall further be reduced by (i) the amount of subventions paid by the State of California or any other amount appropriated by the State for the Agency; (ii) unless the Teeter Plan is currently in effect and the County has made no announcement that the Teeter Plan would terminate, the amount derived by applying the average percentage by which the actual tax collections in the Project Area are less than the amount of the tax levy in the Project Area for the immediately preceding five Fiscal Years; and (iii) the maximum percentage of Tax Revenues payable to a taxing entity pursuant to all non-subordinated Pass Through Agreements, regardless of whether such maximum percentage is in effect for that year. For example, if a Pass Through Agreement includes a step up provision or takes effect upon the occurrence of some event, that pass through shall be calculated at the maximum rate pursuant to the step up or as if the event had already taken place; (3) Such parity bonds shall be redeemed from moneys remaining on deposit in the escrow fund established for the Series B Escrowed Bonds at the expiration of a specified escrow period in such manner as may be determined by the Agency in the supplemental indenture; and The Agency shall not issue any indebtedness bearing interest at variable rates. For a further discussion of Additional Bonds, see APPENDIX E-2 SERIES B BONDS SUMMARY OF LEGAL DOCUMENTS Issuance of Additional Bonds herein. Reserve Account In order to further secure the payment of principal of and interest on the Bonds, the Agency is required upon delivery of the Bonds of each series to deposit under the respective Indenture an amount at least equal to the Reserve Requirement (as defined in the respective Indenture for each series of the Bonds) with respect to all outstanding bonds in each series of Bonds into the Reserve Account established by the respective Indenture. If the applicable Reserve Account is drawn down to pay debt service, Subordinate Tax Revenues with respect to the Series A Bonds and Second Subordinate Tax Revenues with respect to the Series B Bonds must be transferred by the Agency to the Trustee for deposit in the applicable Reserve Account in order to restore the amount in applicable Reserve Account to the applicable Reserve Requirement. The Agency has elected to substitute for the amount deposited in the Reserve Account for the Series A Bonds, a Debt Service Reserve Fund Surety Bond to be provided by the Bond Insurer. The provisions of the Surety Bond are more completely discussed under BOND INSURANCE herein. 19

In consideration of the acceptance of the Bonds by those who hold the same from time to time, the Indentures are deemed to be and constitute a contract between the Agency and the Owners of the applicable series of Bonds from time to time of the Bonds and the covenants and agreements therein set forth to be performed on behalf of the Agency will be for the equal and proportionate benefit, security and protection of all Owners of the applicable series of Bonds without preference, priority or distinction as to security or otherwise of any of the Bonds over any of the other Bonds, or of the Bonds over any other parity obligations, by reason of the number or date thereof or the time of sale, execution and delivery thereof, or otherwise for any cause whatsoever, except as expressly provided therein. Limited Liability THE BONDS ARE SPECIAL OBLIGATIONS OF THE AGENCY AND AS SUCH ARE NOT A DEBT OF THE CITY, THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA OR ANY OF ITS POLITICAL SUBDIVISIONS (OTHER THAN THE AGENCY) AND NONE OF THE CITY, THE STATE, OR ANY OF ITS POLITICAL SUBDIVISIONS (OTHER THAN THE AGENCY) IS LIABLE FOR THE PAYMENT THEREOF. IN NO EVENT SHALL THE BONDS BE PAYABLE OUT OF ANY FUNDS OR PROPERTIES OTHER THAN THOSE OF THE AGENCY SET FORTH IN THE INDENTURE. Any future decrease in the taxable valuation of property in the Project Area or in the applicable tax rates relating thereto will reduce the tax increment revenues allocated to the Agency from the Project Area and correspondingly will have an adverse impact on the ability of the Agency to pay the principal of and interest on the Bonds. Except for the Subordinate Tax Revenues with respect to the Series A Bonds, and Second Subordinate Tax Revenues with respect to the Series B Bonds, and the amounts held in trust under the applicable Indentures, no funds or properties of the Agency shall be pledged to, or otherwise liable for, the respective series of Bonds. The Agency has no power to levy and collect property taxes, and any property tax limitation, legislative measures, voter initiative or provisions or additional sources of income to taxing agencies having the effect of reducing the property tax could reduce the amount of Tax Revenues that would otherwise be available to pay debt service on the Bonds. Likewise, broadened property tax exemptions could have a similar effect. See BONDOWNERS RISKS. BOND INSURANCE Payments Pursuant to Financial Guaranty Insurance Policy Ambac Assurance Corporation ( Ambac Assurance ) has made a commitment to issue a financial guaranty insurance policy (the Financial Guaranty Insurance Policy ) relating to the Series A Bonds, effective as of the date of issuance of the Series A Bonds. Under the terms of the Financial Guaranty Insurance Policy, Ambac Assurance will pay to The Bank of New York, in New York, New York, or any successor thereto (the Insurance Trustee ), that portion of the principal of and interest on the Series A Bonds that shall become Due for Payment but shall be unpaid by reason of Nonpayment by the Obligor (as such terms are defined in the Financial Guaranty Insurance Policy). Ambac Assurance will make such payments to the Insurance Trustee on the later of the date on which such principal and/or interest becomes Due for Payment or within one business day following the date on which Ambac Assurance shall have received notice of Nonpayment from the Trustee. The insurance will extend for the term of the Series A Bonds and, once issued, cannot be canceled by Ambac Assurance. The Financial Guaranty Insurance Policy will insure payment only on stated maturity dates and on mandatory sinking fund installment dates, in the case of principal, and on stated dates for payment, in the case of interest. If the Series A Bonds become subject to mandatory redemption and insufficient funds are available for redemption of all outstanding Series A Bonds, Ambac Assurance will remain obligated to pay the principal of and interest on outstanding Series A Bonds on the originally scheduled interest and principal payment dates, including mandatory sinking fund redemption dates. In the event of any acceleration of the principal of the Series A Bonds, the insured payments will be made at such times and in such amounts as would have been made had there not been an acceleration, except to the extent that Ambac Assurance elects, in its sole discretion, to pay all or a portion of the accelerated principal and 20

interest accrued thereon to the date of acceleration (to the extent unpaid by the Obligor). Upon payment of all such accelerated principal and interest accrued to the acceleration date, Ambac Assurance s obligations under the Financial Guaranty Insurance Policy shall be fully discharged. In the event the Trustee has notice that any payment of principal of or interest on a Series A Bond that has become Due for Payment and that is made to a holder by or on behalf of the Obligor been deemed a preferential transfer and theretofore recovered from its registered owner pursuant to the United States Bankruptcy Code in accordance with a final, non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction, such registered owner will be entitled to payment from Ambac Assurance to the extent of such recovery if sufficient funds are not otherwise available. The Financial Guaranty Insurance Policy does not insure any risk other than Nonpayment (as set forth in the Financial Guaranty Insurance Policy). Specifically, the Financial Guaranty Insurance Policy does not cover: 1. payment on acceleration, as a result of a call for redemption (other than mandatory sinking fund redemption) or as a result of any other advancement of maturity; 2. payment of any redemption, prepayment or acceleration premium; and 3. nonpayment of principal or interest caused by the insolvency o negligence of the Trustee, Paying Agent or Bond Registrar, if any. If it becomes necessary to call upon the Financial Guaranty Insurance Policy, payment of principal requires surrender of the Series A Bonds to the Insurance Trustee together with an appropriate instrument of assignment so as to permit ownership of such Series A Bonds to be registered in the name of Ambac Assurance to the extent of the payment under the Financial Guaranty Insurance Policy. Payment of interest pursuant to the Financial Guaranty Insurance Policy requires proof of holder entitlement to interest payments and an appropriate assignment of the holder s right to payment to Ambac Assurance. Upon payment of the insurance benefits, Ambac Assurance will become the owner of the Series A Bonds appurtenant coupon, if any, or right to payment of the principal of or interest on such Series A Bonds and will be fully subrogated to the surrendering holder s rights to payment. The Financial Guaranty Insurance Policy does not insure against loss relating to payments of the purchase price of the Series A Bonds upon tender by a registered owner thereof or any preferential transfer relating to payments of the purchase price of the Series A Bonds upon tender by a registered owner thereof. In the event that Ambac Assurance were to become insolvent, any claims arising under the Financial Guaranty Insurance Policy would be excluded from coverage by the California Insurance Guaranty Association, established pursuant to the laws of the State of California. Ambac Assurance Corporation Ambac Assurance is a Wisconsin-domiciled stock insurance corporation regulated by the Office of the Commissioner of Insurance of the State of Wisconsin, and is licensed to do business in 50 states, the District of Columbia, the Territory of Guam, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands, with admitted assets of approximately $10,194,000,000 (unaudited) and statutory capital of approximately $6,557,000,000 (unaudited) as of March 31, 2007. Statutory capital consists of Ambac Assurance s policyholders surplus and statutory contingency reserve. Standard & Poor s Ratings Services, a division of The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., Moody s Investors Service, Inc. and Fitch Ratings have each assigned a triple-a financial strength rating to Ambac Assurance. 21

Ambac Assurance has obtained a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service to the effect that the insuring of an obligation by Ambac Assurance will not affect the treatment for federal income tax purposes of interest on such obligation and that insurance proceeds representing maturing interest paid by Ambac Assurance under policy provisions substantially identical to those contained in the Financial Guaranty Insurance Policy shall be treated for federal income tax purposes in the same manner as if such payments were made by the Obligor. Ambac Assurance makes no representation regarding the Series A Bonds or the advisability of investing in the Series A Bonds and makes no representation regarding, nor has it participated in the preparation of, this Official Statement other than the information supplied by Ambac Assurance and presented under the heading BOND INSURANCE and SECURITY FOR THE BONDS Reserve Account.

Debt Service Reserve Fund Ambac Assurance Surety Bond The Series A Indenture requires the establishment of a Debt Service Reserve Fund. The Series A Indenture authorizes the Obligor to obtain a Surety Bond in place of fully funding the Debt Service Reserve Fund. Accordingly, application has been made to Ambac Assurance Corporation ( Ambac Assurance ) for the issuance of a Surety Bond for the purpose of funding the Debt Service Reserve Fund (see Appendix E-1 herein). The Series A Bonds will only be delivered upon the issuance of such Surety Bond. The premium on the Surety Bond is to be fully paid at or prior to the issuance and delivery of the 22

Series A Bonds. The Surety Bond provides that upon the later of (i) one (1) day after receipt by Ambac Assurance of a demand for payment executed by the Trustee certifying that provision for the payment of principal of or interest on the Series A Bonds when due has not been made or (ii) the interest payment date specified in the Demand for Payment submitted to Ambac Assurance, Ambac Assurance will promptly deposit funds with the Paying Agent sufficient to enable the Paying Agent to make such payments due on the Series A Bonds, but in no event exceeding the Surety Bond Coverage, as defined in the Surety Bond. Pursuant to the terms of the Surety Bond, the Surety Bond Coverage is automatically reduced to the extent of each payment made by Ambac Assurance under the terms of the Surety Bond and the Obligor is required to reimburse Ambac Assurance for any draws under the Surety Bond with interest at a market rate. Upon such reimbursement, the Surety Bond is reinstated to the extent of each principal reimbursement up to but not exceeding the Surety Bond Coverage. The reimbursement obligation of the Obligor is subordinate to the Obligor s obligations with respect to the Series A Bonds. In the event the amount on deposit, or credited to the Debt Service Reserve Fund, exceeds the amount of the Surety Bond, any draw on the Surety Bond shall be made only after all the funds in the Debt Service Reserve Fund have been expended. In the event that the amount on deposit in, or credited to, the Debt Service Reserve Fund for the Series A Bonds, in addition to the amount available under the Surety Bond, includes amounts available under a letter of credit, insurance policy, Surety Bond or other such funding instrument (the Additional Funding Instrument ), draws on the Surety Bond and the Additional Funding Instrument shall be made on a pro rata basis to fund the insufficiency. The Series A Indenture provides that the Debt Service Reserve Fund shall be replenished in the following priority: (i) principal and interest on the Surety Bond shall be paid from first available Revenues; (ii) after all such amounts are paid in full, amounts necessary to fund the Debt Service Reserve Fund to the required level, after taking into account the amounts available under the Surety Bond shall be deposited from next available Revenues. The Surety Bond does not insure against nonpayment caused by the insolvency or negligence of the Trustee or the Paying Agent. In the event that Ambac Assurance were to become insolvent, any claims arising under the Financial Guaranty Insurance Policy would be excluded from coverage by the California Insurance Guaranty Association, established pursuant to the laws of the State of California.

Agency Powers All powers of the Agency are vested in its members. Pursuant to the Redevelopment Law, the Agency is a separate public body and exercises governmental functions, including planning and implementing redevelopment projects. The Agency may exercise the right to issue bonds for authorized purposes and to expend their proceeds, and the right to acquire, sell, rehabilitate, develop, administer or lease property. The Agency may demolish buildings, clear land and cause to be constructed certain improvements, including streets, sidewalks, and utilities, and can further prepare for use as a building site any real property which it owns or administers. The Agency may, from any funds made available to it for such purposes, pay for all or part of the value of land and the cost of buildings, facilities or other improvements to be publicly owned, provided that such improvements are expressly found to be of benefit to a redevelopment project and cannot be financed by any other reasonable method. The Agency may not construct or develop buildings, with the exception of public buildings and housing, and generally must sell or lease cleared property which it acquires within a redevelopment project for redevelopment in conformity with a particular redevelopment plan, and may further specify a period within which such redevelopment must begin and be completed. Factors Affecting Redevelopment Agencies Generally Other features of the Redevelopment Law that bear on redevelopment agencies include general provisions which require public agencies to award contracts for construction only after competitive bidding. The Redevelopment Law provides that construction in excess of a minimum amount undertaken by the Agency shall be done only after competitive bidding. California statutes also provide for offenses punishable as felonies that involve direct or indirect interest of a public official in a contract made by such official in his official capacity. In addition, the Redevelopment Law generally prohibits any Agency or City official or employee who, in the course of his duties, is required to participate in the formulation or approval of plans or policies, from acquiring any interest in property in the Project Area. Under a State initiative enacted in 1974, public officials are required to make extensive disclosures regarding their financial interests by filing such disclosures as public records. As of the date of this Official Statement, the members of the City Council and the Agency, and other City and Agency officials have made the required filings. California also has strict laws regarding public meetings (known as the Ralph M. Brown Act) that make all Agency and City meetings open to the public, with certain exceptions not applicable here. Redevelopment agencies are required to file a statement of indebtedness with the county auditorcontroller not later than the first day of October, stating the amount of indebtedness of the Agency for that fiscal year. See Financial Statements; Agency Budget; Statement of Indebtedness below. Financial Statements; Agency Budget; Statement of Indebtedness Included in this Official Statement as APPENDIX B are the audited financial statements of the Agency for the year ended June 30, 2006, reproduced from the report thereon rendered by Lance Soll & Lunghard, L.L.P., Certified Public Accountants, independent accountants for the Agency. The Agency has not requested the consent of auditors for inclusion in this Official Statement, and the auditors have not performed any additional review. Prior years audited financial statements can be obtained from the Agency by contacting the Agency Clerk or the Agency s Finance Department, City of Azusa, 213 E. Foothill Boulevard, Azusa, California 91702. The Agency Board has adopted Resolution No. 06-R20 on June 19, 2006, approving the fiscal year 2006-2007 Agency budget. 25

Pursuant to Section 33675 of the Redevelopment Law, the Agency must file, not later than the first day of October of each year with the county auditor, a statement of indebtedness certified by the chief financial officer of the Agency for each redevelopment project for which the redevelopment plan provides for the division of taxes pursuant to Section 33670 of the Redevelopment Law. The Agency has made such a filing for fiscal year 2006-07, and has met all previous requirements with respect to the filing of its statement of indebtedness pursuant to Section 33675. See LIMITATIONS ON TAX REVENUES Certification of Agency Indebtedness. Regulatory Issues The Agency is in material compliance with the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act, constituting Division 13 (commencing with Section 21000) of the California Public Resources Code, with respect to the Project Area. Redevelopment Plan THE PROJECT AREA Under the Redevelopment Law, the city council of a city that activates the redevelopment agency is required to adopt, by ordinance, a redevelopment plan for each redevelopment project specifically authorized in the adopted redevelopment plan. A redevelopment plan is 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 became effective on November 6, 2003 by Ordinance No. 03-06, and it amended, restated and superseded, in their entirety, the redevelopment plans previously in effect for the Central Business District Redevelopment Project Area and the West End Redevelopment Project Area. The overall objective of the Redevelopment Plan is to eliminate blighted conditions in the Project Area by undertaking all appropriate projects pursuant to the Redevelopment Law. The general objective is to encourage investment in the Redevelopment Project by the private sector, to eliminate blighted conditions and to upgrade the quality of the community. The Redevelopment Plan provides for the acquisition of property, the demolition of buildings and improvements, the relocation of any displaced occupants, and the construction of streets, parking facilities, utilities and other public improvements. The Redevelopment Plan also allows the redevelopment of land by private enterprise, the rehabilitation of structures, the rehabilitation or construction of low and moderate income housing, and participation by owners and the tenants of properties in the Project Area. Pursuant to the Redevelopment Law, the Redevelopment Plan sets forth a number of limitations with respect to each component of the Project Area, including plan expiration dates, time limits to incur debt, time limits on payment of indebtedness with tax increment revenues, dollar caps on bonded indebtedness and tax increment receipt. For a more detailed discussion on these Plan Limitations, see LIMITATIONS ON TAX REVENUES Plan Limitations. History of the Project Area The Redevelopment Plan for the Central Business District Redevelopment Project and the West End Redevelopment Project Merger was approved by the Agency and the City Council on November 7, 1988. This Project Area accomplished the merger of the redevelopment plans for the CBD Project (the CBD Plan ) and the West End Project (the West End Plan ). The CBD Plan was adopted by the City Council on September 18, 1978. Twelve amendments to the CBD Plan were approved by the City Council pursuant to which new areas have been added and financial and program limitations been amended. Amendment I was adopted on July 2, 1979 by Ordinance No. 2077 and added approximately 40 acres to the CBD Project. Amendment II was adopted 26

on July 20, 1981 by Ordinance No. 2113 and added approximately 93 acres to the CBD Plan. Amendment III was adopted November 28, 1983, by Ordinance No. 2197 and added approximately 33 acres to the CBD Plan. Amendments IV and V were adopted on December 17, 1984 by Ordinance Nos. 2249 and 2250, respectively, adjusting the base year valuation on a 24-acre property previously occupied by Miller Brewing Company. Amendment VI was adopted on November 7, 1988 by Ordinance No. 2382 and merged the Central Business District Project with the West End Project. Amendment VII was adopted on December 19, 1994 by Ordinance No. 94-018 and conformed the plan s financial limits with the provisions of AB 1290. Amendment No. VIII was adopted on October 6, 2003, by Ordinance No. 03-06, and added approximately 56 acres to the CBD Plan. Amendment IX was adopted on December 1, 2003, and eliminated the time restrictions on incurring loans, advances and indebtedness. Amendment X was adopted on October 4, 2004, by Ordinance No. 04-09 and extended the effective date of the plan and the date to receive tax increment by one year. Amendment XI, adopted on October 2, 2006 pursuant to Ordinance No. 06-011, allowed the Agency to use eminent domain on non-residential property within the CBD Plan and West End Plan. Amendment XII was adopted on February 5, 2007, by Ordinance No. 07-04, extended the time to collect tax increment and extended the effective date of the West End Plan. On November 28, 1983 pursuant to Ordinance No. 2196, the City Council adopted the West End Plan. The West End Plan has been amended three times, to merge the project area with the Central Business District Project, to comply with the provisions of AB 1290, and the most recent amendment to add territory and change certain limitations of the Project Area. The fourth and fifth amendment, to the West End Plan eliminated the time limitations on establishing indebtedness and extended the effective date of the plan and the last date to receive tax increment by one year. The CBD Plan and the West End Plan provide primarily to eliminate blighted conditions and to revitalize and encourage development as more fully described below. Since its inception, the Agency has entered into several Disposition and Development Agreements and Owner Participation Agreements governing the development of approximately 100,000 square-feet of office space, 685 units of residential housing, 335,000 square-feet of retail commercial space and 1.1 million square-feet of industrial facilities within the Project Area. The estimated assessed value upon completion added by these developments is approximately $135 million. A portion of the Project Area is located within unincorporated County of Los Angeles ( County ) territory. Pursuant to Section 33213 of the Health and Safety Code, by Ordinance No. 2001-0006, adopted January 16, 2001, the Board of Supervisors of Los Angeles County authorized the City to redevelop the County area or any appropriate portion thereof, and to prepare this Redevelopment Plan for such redevelopment. Subsequently, by Ordinance No. 03-06, adopted October 6, 2003, the Agency approved this Redevelopment Plan. Redevelopment Projects The Agency has been actively promoting economic development activities within the Project Area. Bond proceeds will be used to acquire properties, improve infrastructure, and promote economic development through the elimination of blight. Redevelopment projects proposed to be funded through Bond proceeds include, but are not limited to, the following: Downtown North. The Agency is negotiating a Disposition and Development Agreement with Watt Commercial Properties toward creation of a strategic development plan and phased development program for this area, which is generally bounded by 9th Street on the north, the Foothill Blvd. corridor on the south, San Gabriel Ave. on the west, and Dalton Ave. to the east. The project includes the future Downtown Transit District, and construction of retail, mixed use, residential housing and a public library. Target Store. The Agency required one large and two smaller properties bounded by Azusa Avenue, 9th Street, San Gabriel Avenue, and the Metro Gold Line Light Rail right-of-way, 27

and entered settlement agreements with all tenants utilizing a $10,218,000 loan from the City repayable from the Certificate proceeds. The site has been selected for use as a future Target Store. Target has provided a letter of intent detailing approved deal points for the proposed project. Negotiation of a Disposition and Development Agreement with Target is ongoing, and the CEQA process has been initiated. Costco East. The Agency has begun the planning phase to establish a 15-acre site occupied by six different businesses for commercial development. This area is located east of Costco on Foothill Boulevard in the West End Project Area. NEC Azusa and Arrow Highway. The Agency is negotiating with a developer to develop this severely blighted 3.56 acre site on Arrow Highway and Azusa with commercial/retail development. Assessed Valuation The total fiscal year 2006-07 assessed value (secured and unsecured) for the Project Area is $862,784,000.

Bonded Indebtedness and Certain Other Obligations Upon issuance of the Series A Bonds and the Series B Bonds, the Agency will have $39,617,800 * aggregate principal amount of bonds outstanding and payable from Tax Revenues, consisting of the Series A Bonds, the Series B Bonds, the 2003 Bonds and the 2005 Bonds. See APPENDIX A SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION ON THE CITY OF AZUSA Direct and Overlapping Debt Report. The Project Area Plan consists of the original redevelopment plans of the CBD Project and the West End Project, together with any respective amendments thereto. In adopting and implementing its redevelopment plans and their respective amendments, the Agency entered into various reimbursement agreements with the County Taxing Entities. In connection with the adoption and implementation of second, third and fifth amendments to the CBD Project Plan, the Agency entered into four reimbursement agreements. Under these reimbursement agreements, the Agency has agreed to share tax increment derived from the CBD Plan with affected County Taxing Entities. Two of the reimbursement agreements further provide that the Agency, together with respective County Taxing Entities, will satisfy the Housing Set-Aside Amount from their respective shares of the allocated increments. One reimbursement agreement expressly provides that all of the Housing Set-Aside Amount will be met solely from the Agency s portion of the allocated tax increments. One reimbursement agreement does not address the method to allocate the tax increments and satisfy the Housing Set-Aside Amount. The Agency has annually contributed a sufficient amount of its portion of tax increments to satisfy the Housing Set-Aside Amount with respect to the silent reimbursement agreement. * Preliminary, subject to change. 30

The Agency also entered into a reimbursement agreement in connection with the adoption of its West End Plan. The Agency agreed to share the tax increments derived from the West End Plan with the affected County Taxing Entities, as set forth therein. The Agency and the County Taxing Entities have agreed to contribute a pro rata share of their respective share of the allocated tax increments to satisfy the Housing Set-Aside Amount. See THE PROJECT AREA Section 33607.5 Pass-Through Payments. Projected Taxable Valuation and Tax Revenues; Debt Service Coverage Table 5 shows the projected growth of assessed valuation in the Project Area and the resulting net tax increment revenues for fiscal years 2006-07 through 2015-16, as estimated by the Agency. Receipt of projected net tax increment revenues in the amounts and at the time projected by the Agency depends on the realization of certain assumptions relating to the net tax increment revenues. The projections shown on the following tables are based on a number of assumptions made by the Fiscal Consultant and are subject to various limiting conditions. Although the Agency believes that the assumptions upon which the projected net tax increment revenues are based are reasonable, the Agency provides no assurance that the projected net tax increment revenues will be realized. For example, the projections assume that the total assessed value will grow at the rate of two percent per year. There is no assurance that growth will occur at such rate. In the past, there have been periods during which this growth rate did not occur. To the extent that the assumptions made are not actually realized, the Agency s ability to timely pay principal and interest on the Bonds may be adversely affected. 31

Section 33607.5 Pass-Through Payments As described above, prior to the adoption of AB 1290, the Redevelopment Law authorized a redevelopment agency to enter into pass-through or tax-sharing agreements with taxing entities affected by the adoption of a redevelopment plan. AB 1290 repealed the provisions of the Redevelopment Law which authorized pass-through agreements, and replaced it with a system of statutorily mandated pass-throughs (the Section 33607.5 Payments ). California Health and Safety Code Section 33607.5 and Section 33607.7 were added to the Redevelopment Law by AB 1290. Section 33607.7 has been further amended by SB 211, Chapter 741, Statutes 2001 ( SB 211 ). Together, they require that taxing entities receive an additional portion of tax increment revenues otherwise payable to the redevelopment agency, if such taxing entities were affected by (i) the adoption after January 1, 1994, of a new redevelopment plan for a project area or an amendment to an existing redevelopment plan that added territory to a project area or (ii) the adoption after January 1, 1994 of an amendment (to a redevelopment plan that was adopted before January 1, 1994) which extends the time limit on incurring debt with respect to the project area, extends the time limit for the duration and effectiveness of the redevelopment plan, and/or increases the dollar cap on the amount of tax increment revenues allocable to the redevelopment agency for the project area (see LIMITATIONS ON TAX REVENUES Plan Limitations ). Under Section 33607.5, with certain exceptions, with respect to a redevelopment plan or a territory-adding amendment adopted after January 1, 1994, commencing with the first fiscal year in which the agency receives tax increment revenues for the affected project area (or the affected added territory) and continuing through the last fiscal year in which the agency receives tax increment revenues, the agency must pay to the affected taxing entities an amount equal to 25 percent of the tax increment revenues received by the agency after the amount required to be deposited in the low and moderate income housing fund (the Housing Set-Aside Fund ) has been deducted. See SECURITY FOR THE BONDS Allocation of Taxes and LIMITATIONS ON TAX REVENUES Housing Set-Aside. Commencing with the 11th fiscal year in which the agency receives tax increment revenues for the affected project area (or the affected added territory) and continuing through the last fiscal year in which the agency receives tax increment revenues, the agency shall pay to the affected taxing entities (other than the city that established such redevelopment agency), in addition to the amounts paid pursuant to the preceding sentence and after deducting the amount allocated to the Housing Set-Aside Fund, an amount equal to 21 percent of the portion of tax increment revenues received by the agency, which will be calculated by applying the tax rate against the amount of assessed value by which the current year assessed value exceeds the first adjusted base year assessed value. The first adjusted base year assessed value for the 21 percent additional pass-through is the assessed value of the project area (or the affected added territory) in the 10th fiscal year in which the agency receives tax increment revenues. Additional amounts are payable commencing with the 31st year. For any post-1993 amendment to a redevelopment plan adopted before January 1, 1994 that extends the time limits for incurring debt, extends the duration of the redevelopment plan and/or increases the tax increment cap, the formulas for calculating Section 33607.5 Payments are similar to those described in the preceding paragraph, except that each instance of the first fiscal year the agency receives tax increment revenues shall be substituted with the first year following the adjusted base year as defined in Section 33607.7(c) (the Adjusted Based Year ). The Adjusted Base Year is the fiscal year that the applicable limit would have taken effect without the amendment. Thus, the 25 percent of tax increment described in the preceding paragraph would be payable commencing the first year following the Adjusted Base Year, which will be calculated by applying the tax rate against the amount of assessed value by which current year assessed value exceeds the Adjusted Base Year assessed value. Similarly, the 21 percent additional pass-through described in the preceding paragraph would be payable commencing the 11th year following the first year after the Adjusted Base Year. The first adjusted base year assessed value for such 21 percent additional pass-through is the assessed value of the project area in the 10th fiscal year counting from the first year after the Adjusted Base Year. 33

Of the component territories of the Project Area, only the added territory in 2003 was added after January 1, 1994. See BONDOWNERS RISKS Legislation Affecting Redevelopment Agencies SB 211. Therefore, under Section 33607.5 and Section 33607.7, the Agency is obligated to make Section 33607.5 Payments to affected taxing agencies with respect to the additional territory. The projections of tax increments set forth in Table 5 have assumed Section 33607.5 payment obligations of the Agency. A redevelopment agency s obligations to make Section 33607.5 Payments are not subordinate to the redevelopment agency s obligations with respect to the agency s loans or bonds unless the incurrence of such debt satisfies certain conditions and the affected taxing entity does not object to the subordination on grounds permitted by Section 33607.5. Projected Tax Revenues and Debt Service Coverage Receipt of projected Tax Revenues in the amounts and at the times projected by the Agency depends on the realization of certain assumptions relating to the tax increment revenues. The projections of tax increment revenues and the corresponding Tax Revenues from the component areas of the Redevelopment Projects shown on the following table were based on the assumptions shown below. The Agency believes the assumptions upon which the projections are based are reasonable; however, some assumptions may not materialize and unanticipated events and circumstances may occur (see BONDHOLDERS RISKS ). To the extent that the assumptions are not actually realized, the Agency s ability to timely pay principal of and interest on the Bonds may be adversely affected. Following is a discussion of assumptions used in the projection of Tax Revenues. (a) Taxable Values are as reported by Los Angeles County. (b) The 2006-07 secured roll was assumed to increase 2 percent annually for inflation in future years through 2012-13. (c) The values of unsecured personal property and state assessed utility property and the amount of unitary revenues have been maintained throughout the projections at their 2006-07 levels. (d) The applicable 2006-07 tax rate was applied to the taxable property values in the component areas of the Redevelopment Projects to determine tax increment revenues for the current fiscal year. The tax rate applied to projected assessed values was adjusted in subsequent years to eliminate override rates based on the amortization schedule for these override rates. After 2007-08 and for the balance of the projection of tax revenues the tax rate of $1.02 per $100 of taxable assessed value is applied to the taxable property values in the component areas of the Redevelopment Projects. (e) Projected Gross Tax Increment is based upon incremental taxable values factored against an assumed Project Area tax rate and adjusted for indebtedness approved by voters after 1989. (f) By the adoption of an amendment to the Redevelopment Plan under the terms of SB 211, the Agency has eliminated the Redevelopment Plan s time limit for incurrence of new debt. See BONDOWNERS RISKS Legislation Affecting Redevelopment Agencies SB 211. By the elimination of this limit, the Agency will be required to make statutory tax-sharing payments as outlined in the Health and Safety Code beginning in the fiscal year following the date of the eliminated time limit (Jan. 1, 2004). Using the assessed values for 2004-05 as a base year and beginning in 2005-06, Taxing Entities that do not have existing tax-sharing agreements receive their shares of 25% of tax increment revenue net of housing set aside. In addition, beginning in the 11 th year after the initiation of statutory tax-sharing payments, Taxing Entities receive 21% of tax revenue on incremental value above the 10 th year value net of housing set aside. According to Redevelopment Law, the statutory tax-sharing payments outlined above continue only until the termination date of plan effectiveness. Thus there are no statutory tax-sharing obligations during the final ten years that of the Project Areas is able to repay indebtedness. 34

(g) Projected Tax Revenues include a deduction for administrative costs charged by Los Angeles County which is estimated at 1.25% of the Gross Revenues. (h) Housing Set-Aside calculated at 20% of Gross Revenue. 35

BONDOWNERS RISKS Investment in the Bonds involves elements of risk. The following section describes certain specific risk factors affecting the payment and security of the Bonds. The following discussion of risks is not meant to be an exhaustive list of the risks associated with the purchase of the Bonds and the order of discussion of such risks does not necessarily reflect the relative importance of the various risks. Potential investors are advised to consider the following factors along with all other information in this Official Statement in evaluating the Bonds. There can be no assurance that other risk factors not discussed under this caption will not become material in the future. 37

Limited Obligations of the Agency The Bonds and the interest thereon are limited obligations of the Agency and do not constitute a general obligation of the Agency. See SECURITY FOR THE BONDS. No Owner of the Bonds may compel exercise of the taxing power of the State of California or any of its political subdivisions or agencies to pay the principal of, premium, if any, or interest due on the Bonds. The Bonds do not evidence a debt of the Agency or the City within the meaning of any constitutional debt limitation provision. Reduction in Taxable Value Tax Revenues allocated to the Agency are determined by the amount of incremental taxable value in the Project Area and the current rate or rates at which property in the Project Area is taxed. The reduction of taxable values of property in the Project Area caused by economic factors beyond the Agency s control, such as a relocation out of the Project Area by one or more major property owners, successful appeals by property owners for a reduction in property s assessed value, blanket reductions in assessed value due to general reductions in property values or the complete or partial destruction of such property caused by, among other eventualities, an earthquake or other natural disaster, could cause a reduction in Tax Revenues securing the Bonds. Such reduction of Tax Revenues could have an adverse impact on the Agency s ability to make timely payments of principal of and interest on the Bonds. In addition, other limitations on the Agency s receipt and use of tax increment revenues may also affect the availability of Tax Revenues. See LIMITATIONS ON TAX REVENUES Housing Set-Aside and -Plan Limitations. Article XIIIA Litigation On April 18, 2003, the Orange County Superior Court entered a final judgment in the Bezaire v. County of Orange case (also known as the Prop. 13 or 2% Case ) holding that the Orange County Assessor (the Assessor ) had violated the 2% maximum annual inflation adjustment limit of Article XIIIA by establishing a 4% value increase in order to recapture two years of inflation adjustments. The State Board of Equalization had approved this methodology for increasing assessed values in similar circumstances, and in 2002, two other local courts (Los Angeles and San Diego) ruled differently than Orange County on the same issue, affirming the practice. In June, 2003, the Orange County Assessor and the Tax Collector in conjunction with the County of Orange, filed an appeal to the Court of Appeal of the State of California, Fourth District, Division Three. On March 26, 2004, the Court of Appeal reversed the lower court, entering judgment in favor of Orange County, finding that the trial court erred in ruling that assessments are always limited to no more than 2% of the previous year s assessment. The Court of Appeal ruled that the base on which the inflation factor is figured remains that of the original purchase price (or assessment at time of genuine new construction), not any reduced base resulting from a reassessment in the wake of declining property values. On May 6, 2004, the case was appealed to the California Supreme Court as Case No. S12-4682. On July 21, 2004, the California Supreme Court denied the petition for review. Reduction in Inflationary Rate As discussed above under Bezaire vs. County of Orange and as described in greater detail below under LIMITATIONS ON TAX REVENUES, Article XIIIA of the California Constitution provides that the full cash value base of real property used in determining taxable value may be adjusted from year to year to reflect the inflationary rate, not to exceed a two percent 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. For Fiscal Year 2006-07, the County Assessor applied the maximum inflationary factor to properties in the Project Area as determined under Article XIIIA of two percent. As reflected in APPENDIX C, the Fiscal Consultant has assumed, for purposes of its report, that assessed values will increase by the full inflationary rate of two percent each year; however, there can be 38

no assurance that this will be the case. The Agency is unable to predict if adjustments to the full cash value base of any property in the Project Area, whether an increase or a reduction, will be realized in the future. Article XIIIA of the California Constitution, which significantly affected the rate of property taxation, was adopted pursuant to California s constitutional initiative process. From time to time, other initiative measures could be adopted by California voters. The adoption of any such initiative might alter the calculation of tax increment revenues, reduce the property tax rate, or broaden property tax exemptions. Future legislative reallocation of the one percent basic levy among the affected taxing entities could increase the taxes retained by certain taxing entities with a corresponding reduction in Tax Revenues. See LIMITATIONS ON TAX REVENUES Property Tax Limitations Article XIIIA. Legislation Affecting Redevelopment Agencies AB 1290. The California Legislature enacted Assembly Bill 1290 effective January 1, 1994, as amended by Senate Bill 732, effective January 1, 1995 (as amended, AB 1290, ) which contained several significant changes in the Redevelopment Law. Certain of the changes affect the times for incurrence and repayment of loans, advances and indebtedness of redevelopment agencies. As enacted, AB 1290 does not adversely impact the proceedings for the issuance of the Bonds or the payment of debt service on the Bonds. Further, the Legislature enacted Assembly Bill 1342 effective January 1, 1999 ( AB 1342 ), which contains provisions that allowed the Agency to extend certain provisions of the Redevelopment Plans, such as the time limit on the collection of Tax Increment Revenues. The limitations currently contained in the Redevelopment Plans of the Redevelopment Project conform to the requirements of AB 1290. See LIMITATIONS ON TAX REVENUES Plan Limitations for a further discussion of AB 1290. SB 1045. In enacting SB 1045 (see ERAF; State Budget below), the State Legislature amended Section 33333.6 of the Redevelopment Law. Section 33333.6(e) now provides that the City Council may adopt an ordinance to extend the limits required by AB 1290 by one additional year. The City Council has adopted such an ordinance. SB 211. The California Legislature also enacted SB 211, Chapter 741, Statutes 2001, effective January 1, 2002 ( SB 211 ). SB 211 provides, among other things, that, at anytime after its effective date, the limitation on incurring indebtedness contained in a redevelopment plan adopted prior to January 1, 1994, may be deleted by ordinance of the legislative body. However, such deletion will trigger Statutory Tax Sharing under the Tax Sharing Statutes with those taxing entities that do not have tax sharing agreements. Tax sharing will be calculated based on the increase in assessed valuation after the year in which the limitation would otherwise have become effective. See LIMITATIONS ON TAX REVENUES Plan Limitations describing the current limitation on the Agency s incurring of indebtedness and THE PROJECT AREA Bonded Indebtedness and Certain Other Obligations, describing the formulas for tax sharing. The Agency adopted this provision in December 2003. The projections of Tax Revenues herein assume such an ordinance is adopted, with resulting Tax Sharing Statute payments. SB 211 also authorizes the amendment of a redevelopment plan adopted prior to January 1, 1994 to extend for not more than 10 years of the effectiveness of the redevelopment plan and the time to receive tax increment revenues and to pay indebtedness. Any such extension must meet certain specified requirements, including the requirement that the redevelopment agency establish the existence of both physical and economic blight within a specified geographical area of the redevelopment project and that any additional tax increment revenues received by the redevelopment agency because of the extension be used solely within the designated blighted area. SB 211 authorizes any affected taxing entity, the Department of Finance, or the Department of Housing and Community Development to request the Attorney General to participate in the proceedings to effect such extensions. It also authorizes the Attorney General to bring a civil action to challenge the validity of the proposed extensions. 39

SB 211 also prescribes additional requirements that a redevelopment agency would have to meet upon extending the time limit on the effectiveness of a redevelopment plan, including requiring an increased percentage of new and substantially rehabilitated dwelling units to be available at affordable housing cost to persons and families of low or moderate income prior to the termination of the effectiveness of the plan. The Agency currently has no expectations of undertaking proceedings to extend the effectiveness of the redevelopment plan or to extend the time to receive tax increment revenues (other than under SB 1045, as described above) and to pay indebtedness. The City Council adopted Ordinance No. 03-07 on December 1, 2003, pursuant to the authorization contained in SB 211 to eliminate the current November 28, 2003 and January 1, 2004 limit on the Agency s authority to incur loans, advances and indebtedness and the Indentures expressly allow such amendment and the resulting Statutory Tax Sharing payments on a basis senior to the Bonds, the 2003 Bonds and the 2005 Bonds. See THE PROJECT AREA Bonded Indebtedness and Certain Other Obligations. The Agency cannot predict what effect subsequent State legislation, if any, will have on the Agency s Tax Increment Revenues and, consequently, on its ability to timely pay principal and interest on the Bonds. SB 1096. SB 1096 further amended Section 33333.6(e) to provide that the City Council may adopt an ordinance to extend the limits required by AB 1290 by an additional year for each year that a payment is made to ERAF by a redevelopment agency. However, SB 1096 includes criteria that must be met for redevelopment plans that have a remaining plan life between 10 and 20 years. The City Council adopted Ordinance 07-04 pursuant to the authorization contained in SB 1096 to extend the time limit for the effectiveness for the Central Business District Original Area and Amendment Area Nos. 1, 2, 3 and 4 and the West End Project Area and to extend the time to collect tax increment for the CBD Plan and the West End Plan. Santa Ana Unified School District Case The Fourth District of the California Court of Appeal rendered a decision in Santa Ana Unified School District vs. Orange County Development Agency (the Santa Ana USD Case ). The Santa Ana USD Case involves the allocation of tax increment revenues pursuant to Section 33676(a) of the Redevelopment Law as it existed before the passage of AB 1290. Generally, before AB 1290, Section 33676(a) provided that, prior to the adoption of a redevelopment plan (or an amendment adding territory to a project area), under certain conditions, any affected taxing agency may elect, and every school and community college district shall elect, to be allocated all or any portion of the tax revenues derived based on an annual adjustment of the base year assessed value of real properties in the project area (or the added territory). The words every school and community college district shall elect were added pursuant to a 1984 amendment. The amount of property taxes that a taxing entity may receive under the former Section 33676(a) is derived by increasing the base year value of taxable real property in the project area (or the added territory) by an inflationary factor of not greater than two percent per year (the 2 Percent Allocation ). In effect, the 2 Percent Allocation reduces the tax increment revenues that a redevelopment agency receives from the project area (or, if applicable, an added area to the project area). In the Santa Ana USD Case, the redevelopment plan at issue was adopted in 1986. In 1996, the Santa Ana Unified School District ( Santa Ana USD ) adopted a resolution electing to be paid its share of the 2 Percent Allocation. The Orange County Development Agency took the position that Santa Ana USD was not entitled to the 2 Percent Allocation because the election to receive such allocation should have been made before the adoption of the redevelopment plan for the project area. In turn, Santa Ana USD argued that the mandatory nature of the words shall elect in the statute made the allocation mandatory with respect to a school district. The lower court ruled in favor of Santa Ana USD. In an opinion published June 29, 2001, the Court of Appeal affirmed. As a result, Santa Ana USD received the award it had requested, i.e., its share of the 2 Percent Allocation from 1996, the year Santa Ana USD 40

made the Section 33676 election. The California Supreme Court denied review of the Santa Ana USD Case on September 19, 2001. This case effects Redevelopment Agencies which have amended or added territory between the years 1983 to 1994. The Agency has amended the Central Business District Plan and the West End Plan in these years, however, the Agency has determined that this case will not have any impact on the receipt of Tax Revenues by the Agency. Development Risks Generally, the Agency s ability to pay debt service on the Bonds will depend on the economic strength of the Project Area. The general economy of the Project Area will be subject, in part, to the development risks generally associated with real estate development projects. Projected development within the Project Area may be subject to unexpected delays, disruptions and changes. For example, real estate development operations may be adversely affected by changes in general economic conditions, fluctuations in the real estate market, fluctuations in interest rates, unexpected increases in development costs and by other factors. Further, real estate development operations within the Project Area could be adversely affected by future governmental policies, including governmental policies to restrict or control development. If projected development in the Project Area is delayed or halted, the economy of the Project Area could be adversely affected, causing a reduction of the Tax Revenues available to pay debt service on the Bonds of each series. Levy and Collection The Agency has no independent power to levy and collect property taxes. Any reduction in the tax rate or the implementation of any constitutional or legislative property tax decrease could reduce the Tax Revenues, and accordingly, could have an adverse impact on the ability of the Agency to make debt service payments on the Bonds of each series. Likewise, delinquencies in the payment of property taxes could have an adverse effect on the Agency s ability to make timely debt service payments on the Bonds of each series. The Agency is not a participant in the County s Alternative Method of Distribution of Tax Levies and Collections and of Tax Sale Proceeds (commonly referred to as the Teeter Plan ). The County currently allocates tax increment revenues to the Agency based upon the tax increment actually collected. See LIMITATIONS ON TAX REVENUES County Tax Allocation Procedures Applicable to the Agency. ERAF; State Budget Deficit In connection with its approval of the budget for the 1992-93, 1993-94 and 1994-95 fiscal years, the State Legislature enacted legislation which, among other things, reallocated funds from redevelopment agencies to school districts by shifting a portion or each agency s tax increment, net of amounts due to other taxing agencies, to school districts for deposit in the Education Revenue Augmentation Fund ( ERAF ). The amount required to be paid by a redevelopment agency for each such fiscal year was apportioned among all of its redevelopment project areas on a collective basis, and was not allocated separately to individual project areas. Faced with a projected $23.6 billion budget gap for fiscal year 2002-03, the State Legislature adopted and sent to the Governor of the State AB 1768, as urgency legislation, requiring redevelopment agencies to pay into ERAF an aggregate amount of $75 million in fiscal year 2002-03. As a result, the Agency paid $127,937 into ERAF in fiscal year 2002-03 as its share of such $75 million. As part of the overall legislation to enact the 2003-04 State budget, the State enacted, as urgency legislation, SB 1045, being Chapter 260 of the Statutes of 2003 ( Chapter 260 ), as part of the 2003-04 State Budget requiring redevelopment agencies to pay into ERAF in fiscal year 2003-04 an aggregate amount of $135 million. Chapter 260 requires payments into ERAF in fiscal year 2003-04 only. Chapter 260 provides that one-half of an agency s ERAF obligation is calculated based on the gross tax increment received by the agency and the other one-half of the agency s ERAF obligation is calculated based on the net tax increment revenues (after any pass-through payments to other taxing entities). The Agency paid into ERAF in Fiscal year 2003-04 the amount of $232,244 as its share of such $135 million. 41

The 2004-05 State budget enacted by California Legislature identified $22.1 billion worth of debt inherited from the prior gubernatorial administration and indicated that, absent any changes in policies, State budget deficits would continue, estimated at $14 billion for fiscal year 2004-05. The 2004-05 State budget shifted $1.3 billion of revenues from local government to the State. The shift, as to redevelopment agencies, included the following: (a) redevelopment agencies would contribute $250 million in each of the next two fiscal years to ERAF using the same formula as in current law, (b) county, city, special district and redevelopment agency property tax, sales tax, and vehicle license fee revenue would be permanently protected from State ERAF reallocations in future years through a constitutional amendment to be placed on the November general election ballot by the legislature with the full support and leadership of the Governor, and (c) the second year of local government budget cuts will be repealed if the constitutional amendment does not pass at the November 2004 election. On March 2, 2004, voters in California approved Propositions 57 and 58 which were designed by the Governor to assist with the State budget shortfall. Proposition 57 authorized bond issues of up to $15,000,000 to fund budget deficits and Proposition 58 requires the enactment of a balanced State budget. The Agency was be required to pay an amount equal to $472,091 for fiscal years 2004-05 and $470,964 for fiscal years 2005-06 as its share of such $250 million. Both of these amounts were paid to the County by the deadline. The 2006/07 State Budget does not contain any ERAF transfers, however, future legislation could be enacted and Tax Revenues available for payment of the Bonds may be impaired. The 2006/07 State Budget does not resolve the State s structural deficit between revenues and expenditures. It is therefore anticipated that there will be additional future legislation which addresses this situation. The Agency cannot predict what measures may be proposed or implemented for the current fiscal year or in the future. In connection with the reallocation of $2.6 billion of local agency revenues to school funding, the Legislature and the Governor agreed to place Proposition 1A, entitled Protection of Local Government Revenues, on the November 2, 2004 ballot ( Proposition 1A ), and it was approved by the voters. Proposition 1A amends the California Constitution to, among other things, prohibit the shift of property tax revenues from cities, counties and special districts, except to address a severe state financial hardship (and only then if (x) such amounts were to be repaid with interest within three years, (y) the State had repaid any other borrowed amounts, and (z) such borrowing could not occur more often than twice in ten years). However, Proposition 1A does not specifically protect against reallocation of redevelopment agency funds to other uses within a corresponding city or county. In addition, in connection with the payment by redevelopment agencies (i) SB 1045 allowed the Agency to extend the effective date of the Original Plans, and the date to receive Incremental Tax Revenues, by one year, and (ii) SB 1096 allows the Agency to extend the effective date of the Merged Plan, and the date to receive Incremental Tax Revenues, by two years if the legislative body finds the Agency is in compliance with major housing requirements. The Agency has taken such action allowed by SB 1045 and SB 1096. See Financial Limitation; SB 211 below. The State budget for fiscal years 2005-06 and 2006-07 were adopted without any further reallocation of funds. There is no provision for the reallocation of funds in the proposed State budget for fiscal years 2007-08. Information about the State budget is regularly available at various Statemaintained websites. The fiscal year 2006-07 State budget may be found at the website of the Department of Finance, www.dof.ca.gov, under the heading California Budget. Additionally, an impartial analysis of the budget is posted by the Office of the Legislative Analyst at www.lao.ca.gov. The information referred to is prepared by the respective State agency maintaining each website and not by the Agency, and the Agency takes no responsibility for the continued accuracy of the internet addresses or for the accuracy, completeness or timeliness of information posted there, and such information is not incorporated herein by these references. 42

In addition to potential ERAF provisions, the Agency cannot predict whether the State Legislature will enact any other legislation requiring additional or increased future shifts of tax increment revenues to the State and/or to schools, whether through an arrangement similar to ERAF or by other arrangements, and, if so, the effect on future Tax Revenues. Given the level of the State of California s budget deficit problems, tax increment available for payment of the Bonds may be substantially reduced in the future by actions of the State Legislature. Property Tax Appeals There are seven assessment appeals pending within the Project Area, all of which are within the West End Project Area. Three of the pending assessment appeals have been filed by Costco Wholesale Corporation ( Costco ). Costco is seeking a 50% reduction in its fixture and personal property tax roll value for fiscal years 2003-04 through 2006-07. The requested reductions are equal to $1.66 million for fiscal year 2003-04, $1.47 million for fiscal year 2004-05, $1.32 million for fiscal year 2005-06 and $1.29 million for fiscal year 2006-07. Reichold Inc. and S&S foods LLC are each requesting 50% reductions of their 2006-07 assessed value, which would result in a reduction of $13.6 million. All pending assessments appeals appear to be pro-forma requests for reduction in value and not based on economic circumstances. The Project Area s top taxpayer, Northrop Grumman, had assessment appeals on valuations for 2002-03 and 2003-04 which were denied. The table below summarizes the assessed value and reduction in assessments based on appeals for fiscal years 2003-04 through 2005-06.

Source: HDL Coren & Cone. Within West End, and based upon assessment appeals data through December 2006 and using the historical averages for owners successfully appealing their assessed values, the fiscal consultant s report projects that a total of $5,373,957 in assessed value will be taken from the 2007-08 tax rolls. This projected reduction has been incorporated into the projection of tax revenues. The factors resulting in this projected loss are outlined in Table 9. 43

Any reduction of assessed valuations could result in a reduction of the Tax Revenues from those projected herein, which in turn could impair the ability of the Agency to make payments of principal of and/or interest on the Bonds when due. Additional Financing Following the issuance of the Bonds, the Agency may issue one or more additional series of bonds and/or notes in an aggregate principal amount which (when added to the Bonds, the 2005 and the 2003 Bonds) do not exceed the limitations set forth in the Redevelopment Plan. See LIMITATIONS ON TAX REVENUES Plan Limitations. Subject to compliance with the limitations of the Indenture, such obligations may be issued on a parity with or subordinate to the Bonds. See SECURITY FOR THE BONDS Issuance of Parity Bonds and Issuance of Subordinated Debt. Seismic Considerations The City, like most California communities, may be subject to unpredictable seismic activity. There is no evidence that a ground surface rupture will occur in the event of an earthquake, but there is significant potential for destructive ground-shaking during the occurrence of a major seismic event. In addition, land susceptible to seismic activity may be subject to liquefaction during the occurrence of such an event. The City is located in a high impact seismic zone. In the event of a severe earthquake, there may be significant damage to both property and infrastructure in the Project Area. As a result, the value of taxable land in the Project Area could be diminished in the aftermath of such an earthquake, through appeals, thereby reducing the amount of Tax Revenues. Hazardous Substances Another environmental condition that may result in the reduction in the assessed value of parcels would be the discovery of a hazardous substance that would limit the beneficial use of a property within the Project Area. In general, the owners and operators of a property may be required by law to remedy conditions of the property relating to releases or threatened releases of hazardous substances. The owner may be required to remedy a hazardous substance condition of property whether or not the owner or operator has anything to do with creating or handling the hazardous substance. The effect, therefore, should any of the property within the Project Area be affected by a hazardous substance would be to reduce the marketability and value of the property by the costs of remedying the condition, causing a reduction of the Tax Revenues. 44

Enforceability of Remedies The remedies available to the Trustee and the registered owners of the Bonds of each series upon an event of default under the related Indenture or any other document described herein are in many respects dependent upon regulatory and judicial actions which are often subject to discretion and delay. Under existing law and judicial decisions, the remedies provided for under such documents may not be readily available or may be limited. The various legal opinions to be delivered concurrently with the delivery of the Bonds of each series will be qualified to the extent that the enforceability of the legal documents with respect to the Bonds of each series is subject to limitations imposed by bankruptcy, moratorium, reorganization, insolvency or other similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally and by equitable remedies and proceedings generally. Investment of Funds The Reserve Account established under each Indenture and all other funds held under each Indenture are required to be invested in Permitted Investments as provided under the related Indenture. See APPENDIX E SUMMARY OF LEGAL DOCUMENTS. All investments, including Permitted Investments, authorized by law from time to time for investments by redevelopment agencies contain a certain degree of risk. Such risks include, but are not limited to, a lower rate of return than expected, decline in market value and loss or delayed receipt of principal. The occurrence of these events with respect to amounts held under the related Indenture, or the funds and accounts held by the Agency could have a material adverse effect on the security for the Bonds of such series and/or the financial condition of the Agency. Loss of Tax Exemption In order to maintain the exclusion from gross income for federal income tax purposes of the interest on the Series B Bonds, the Agency has covenanted in the Series B Indenture to comply with each applicable requirement of Section 148 and certain other sections of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, relative to arbitrage and avoidance of characterization as private activity bonds, among other things. The interest on the Series B Bonds could become includable in gross income for purposes of federal income taxation retroactive to the date of issuance of Series B Bonds as a result of acts or omissions of the Agency in violation of covenants in the Series B Indenture. Should such an event of taxability occur, the Series B Bonds are not subject to acceleration, redemption or any increase in interest rates and will remain Outstanding until maturity or until redeemed under one of the redemption provisions contained in the Series B Indenture. See TAX MATTERS. Secondary Market There can be no assurance that there will be a secondary market for the Bonds of each series, or if a secondary market exists, that either series of Bonds can be sold for any particular price. Occasionally, because of general market conditions or because of adverse history or economic prospects connected with a particular issue, secondary marketing practices in connection with a particular issue are suspended or terminated. Additionally, pricing of issues for which a market is being made will depend upon then prevailing circumstances. Such prices could substantially differ from the original purchase price. Property Tax Limitations - Article XIIIA LIMITATIONS ON TAX REVENUES California voters, on June 6, 1978, approved an amendment (commonly referred to as Proposition 13 or the Jarvis-Gann Initiative ) to the California Constitution. This amendment, which added Article XIIIA to the California Constitution, among other things, affects the valuation of real property for the purpose of taxation in that it defines the full cash value of property to mean the county 45

assessor s valuation of real 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 ownership has occurred after the 1975 assessment. The full cash value may be adjusted annually to reflect inflation at a rate not to exceed two percent per year, or any reduction in the consumer price index or comparable local data, or any reduction in the event of declining property value caused by damage, destruction or other factors. Article XIIIA further limits the amount of any ad valorem tax on real property to one percent of the full cash value except that additional taxes may be levied to pay debt service on indebtedness approved by the voters prior to July 1, 1978. In addition, an amendment to Article XIII was adopted in August 1986 by initiative that exempts any bonded indebtedness approved by two-thirds of the votes cast by voters for the acquisition or improvement of real property from the one percent limitation. On December 22, 1978, the California Supreme Court upheld the amendment over challenges on several state and federal constitutional grounds (Amador Valley Joint Union School District v. State Board of Equalization). In the general election held on November 4, 1986, voters of the State of California approved two measures, Propositions 58 and 60, which further amended Article XIIIA. Proposition 58 amended Article XIIIA to provide that the terms purchased and change of ownership, for purposes of determining full cash value of property under Article XIIIA, 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. Proposition 60 amended Article XIIIA to permit the Legislature to allow persons over age 55 who sell their residence to buy or build another of equal or lesser value within two years in the same county, to transfer the old residence s assessed value to the new residence. Pursuant to Proposition 60, the Legislature has enacted legislation permitting counties to implement the provisions of Proposition 60. Article XIIIA has subsequently been amended to permit reduction of the full cash value base in the event of declining property values caused by damage, destruction or other factors, to provide that there would be no increase in the full cash value base in the event of reconstruction of property damaged or destroyed in a disaster and in certain other minor or technical ways. See BONDOWNERS RISKS Reduction in Taxable Value; Plan Limitations. Challenges to Article XIIIA California trial and appellate courts have upheld the constitutionality of Article XIIIA s assessment rules in three significant cases. The United States Supreme Court in an appeal to one of these cases upheld the constitutionality of Article XIIIA s tax assessment system. The Agency cannot predict whether there will be any future challenges to California s present system of property tax assessment and cannot evaluate the ultimate effect on the Agency s receipt of Tax Revenues should a future decision hold unconstitutional the method of assessing property. Implementing Legislation Legislation has been enacted and amended a number of times since 1978 to implement Article XIIIA. Under current law, local agencies are no longer permitted to levy directly any property tax (except to pay voter-approved indebtedness). The one percent property tax is automatically levied by the county and distributed according to a formula among taxing agencies. The formula apportions the tax roughly in proportion to the relative shares of taxes levied prior to 1978. Increases of assessed valuation resulting from reappraisals of property due to new construction, change in ownership or from the two percent annual adjustment are allocated among the various jurisdictions in the taxing area based on their respective situs. Any such allocation made to a local agency continues as part of its allocation in future years. 46

Beginning in the 1981-82 fiscal year, assessors in California no longer record property values on tax rolls at the assessed value of 25 percent of market value, which was expressed as $4.00 per $100 of assessed value. All taxable property is now shown at full market value on the tax rolls. Consequently, the tax rate is expressed as $1.00 per $100 of taxable value. Unless otherwise noted, all taxable property value included in this Official Statement is shown at 100 percent of market value and all tax rates reflect the $1 per $100 of taxable value. Proposition 87 Under prior State law, if a taxing entity increased its tax rate to obtain revenues to repay voter approved general obligation bonds, any redevelopment project area which included property affected by the tax rate increase would realize a proportionate increase in tax increment. Proposition 87, approved by the voters of the State on November 8, 1993, requires that all revenues produced by a tax rate increase (approved by the voters on or after January 1, 1989) go directly to the taxing entity which increases the tax rate to repay the general obligation bonded indebtedness. As a result, redevelopment agencies no longer receive an increase in tax increment when taxes on property in the project area are increased to repay voter approved general obligation debt. Appropriations Limitations: Article XIIIB of the California Constitution On November 6, 1979, California voters approved Proposition 4, the so-called Gann Initiative, which added Article XIIIB to the California Constitution. Article XIIIB limits the annual appropriations of the State and any city, county, school district, authority or other political subdivision of the State to the level of appropriations for the prior fiscal year, as adjusted for changes in the cost of living, population and services rendered by the government entity. The base year for establishing such appropriations limit is the 1978-79 fiscal year, and the limit is to be adjusted annually to reflect changes in population, consumer prices and certain increases in the cost of services provided by these public agencies. Effective November 1980, the California Legislature added Section 33678 to the Redevelopment Law. Section 33678 provides that the allocation of tax increment revenues to a redevelopment agency for the purpose of paying principal of, or interest on, loans, advances, or indebtedness shall not be deemed the receipt by such agency of proceeds of taxes levied by or on behalf of the agency within the meaning of Article XIIIB, nor shall such portion of taxes be deemed receipt of taxes by, or an appropriation subject to the limitation of, any other public body within the meaning or for the purpose of the Constitution and laws of the State of California, 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 court decisions, the Agency does not believe it is subject to Article XIIIB and has not adopted an appropriations limit. Unitary Taxation of Utility Property AB 2890 (Statutes of 1986, Chapter 1457) provides that, commencing with fiscal year 1988-89, assessed value derived from State-assessed unitary property (consisting mostly of operational property owned by certain railroad and utility companies) is to be allocated county-wide as follows: (i) each tax rate area will receive the same amount from each assessed utility received in the previous fiscal 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 allocated 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 January 1. AB 454 (Statutes of 1987, Chapter 921) further modifies Chapter 1457 regarding the distribution of tax revenues derived from property assessed by the State Board of Equalization. Chapter 921 provides for the consolidation of all State-assessed property, except for regulated railroad property, into a single 47

tax rate area in each county. Chapter 921 further provides for a new method of establishing tax rates on State-assessed property and distribution of property tax revenues derived from State-assessed property to taxing jurisdictions within each county as follows: for revenues generated from the one percent tax rate, each jurisdiction, including redevelopment project areas, will receive a percentage up to 102 percent of its prior year State-assessed unitary revenues; and if county-wide revenues generated for unitary property are greater than 102 percent of the previous year s unitary revenues, each jurisdiction will receive a percentage share of the excess unitary revenues generated from the application of the debt service tax rate to county wide unitary taxable value, further, each jurisdiction will receive a percentage share of revenues based on the jurisdiction s annual debt service requirements and the percentage of property taxes received by each jurisdiction from unitary property taxes. Railroads will continue to be assessed and revenues allocated to all tax rate areas where railroad property is sited. The intent of Chapters 1457 and 921 is to provide redevelopment agencies with their appropriate share of revenues generated from the property assessed by the State Board of Equalization. The County Auditor-Controller remitted unitary revenues to the Agency for the Project Area in the amount of $77,492 for the 2005-06 fiscal year and $76,951 for the 2006-07 fiscal year. Housing Set-Aside The Redevelopment Law requires each redevelopment agency to set-aside 20 percent of all tax increment revenue allocable to the agency (such amounts being referred to herein as the Housing Set-Aside ) derived from redevelopment project areas in the Housing Set-Aside Fund. This low and moderate income housing requirement could be reduced or eliminated if a redevelopment agency finds that: (1) no need exists in the community to improve or increase the supply of low and moderate income housing; and (2) that some stated percentage less than 20 percent of the tax increment is sufficient to meet the housing need. No such findings have been made by the Agency. Generally, Housing Set-Aside amounts are not available for payments of debt service on a redevelopment agency s bonds or other indebtedness. However, to the extent that a portion of the sale proceeds of a bond issue is deposited in the Housing Set-Aside Fund, the agency may pay a proportionate amount of the debt service on such bonds from the Housing Set-Aside amount. The Agency has allocated 39.14% of the proceeds of the 1997 Bonds and 27.66% of the proceeds of the 2003 Bonds. In the past, the Agency has used Housing Set-Aside to pay the allocable portion of debt service on the 1997 Bonds and the 2003. Upon defeasance of the 1997 Bonds by the Series B Bonds, the Series B Bonds will be secured by such set aside. The provisions of the Redevelopment Law regarding the funding of low and moderate income housing funds have been frequently amended since their original adoption. In addition, the interpretations of these laws by the California Attorney General and redevelopment agency counsels throughout the State have at times been subject to variation and change. The Agency cannot predict what impact any future amendment to the laws relating to low and moderate income housing funds may have on tax increment revenues to the Agency. Also see APPENDIX C FISCAL CONSULTANT S REPORT. 48

Property Tax Collection Procedures Classifications. In California, property that is subject to ad valorem taxes is classified as secured or unsecured. Secured and unsecured property is entered on separate parts of the assessment roll maintained by the county assessor. The secured classification includes property on which any property tax levied by the county becomes a lien on that property sufficient, in the opinion of the county assessor, to secure payment of the taxes. Every tax that becomes a lien on secured property has priority over all other liens on the secured property, regardless of the time of the creation of other liens. A tax levied on unsecured property does not become a lien against the taxes on unsecured property, but may become a lien on certain other property owned by the taxpayer. Collections. The method of collecting delinquent taxes is substantially different for the two classifications of property. The taxing authority has four ways of collecting unsecured property taxes in the absence of timely payment by the taxpayer: (1) a civil action against the taxpayer; (2) filing a certificate in the office of the county clerk specifying certain facts in order to obtain a judgment lien on certain property of the taxpayer; (3) filing a certificate of delinquency for recording in the county recorder s office, in order to obtain a lien on certain property of the taxpayer; and (4) seizure and sale of the personal property, improvements 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 roll is the sale of property securing the taxes to the State for the amount of taxes that are delinquent. Delinquencies. The valuation of property is determined as of January 1 each year and equal installments of taxes levied upon secured property become delinquent on the following December 10 and April 10. Taxes on unsecured property are due January 1 and become delinquent on the succeeding August 31. Penalties. A 10 percent penalty is added to delinquent taxes that 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 in default on or about June 30 of the fiscal year. Such property may thereafter be redeemed by payment of the delinquent taxes and a delinquency penalty, plus a redemption penalty of one and one half percent per month to the time of redemption. If taxes are unpaid for a period of five years or more, the property is deeded to the State and then is subject to sale by the county tax collector. A 10 percent penalty also applies to the delinquent taxes on property on the unsecured roll, and further, an additional penalty of one percent per month accrues with respect to such taxes beginning the first day of the third month following the delinquency date. Supplemental Revenue. A bill enacted in 1983, SB 813 (Statutes of 1983, Chapter 498), provides for the supplemental assessment and taxation of property as of the occurrence of a change in ownership or completion of new construction. Previously, statutes enabled the assessment of such changes only as of the next tax lien date (March 1 was used as the lien date as of the enactment of Chapter 498; however, as discussed herein, the lien date was changed by legislation enacted in 1995) following the change and thus delayed the realization of increased property taxes from the new assessments for up to 14 months. As enacted, Chapter 498 provides increased revenue to redevelopment agencies to the extent that supplemental assessments as a result of new construction or changes of ownership occur within the boundaries of redevelopment projects subsequent to the lien date. To the extent such supplemental assessments occur within the Project Area, Tax Revenues may increase. The receipt of supplemental tax increment revenues by taxing entities typically follow the change of ownership by a year or more. The Fiscal Consultant has not included such revenues resulting from such supplemental assessment in its projections. 49

County Tax Allocation Procedures Applicable to the Agency Tax Increment Revenues and Receipts. According to the County s current practice, the County disburses payments of tax increment collected for the Project Area to the Agency in installments between November and August each year. Generally, each year, the Agency receives 50 percent of the annual tax increment revenues by mid-january and 85 percent by mid-may. County Collection Charge. As permitted by legislation enacted by the State Legislature (SB 2557 and AB 1924), the County retains a collection charge from tax increment revenues disbursed to the Agency in order to recover charges for property tax administration. For fiscal year 2005-06, the County retained $87,807 from the Agency as administrative and collection charges attributable to the Project Area. Base Year Valuation Adjustments. The Redevelopment Law provides that the base assessment roll utilized for the allocation of tax increment revenues may be reduced by the taxable value, as shown on the base roll, of those properties acquired for public use of tax exempt public entities. The precedent for this action stems from the 1963 case of Redevelopment Agency of the City of Sacramento vs. Malaki, 216 Cal. App. 2d 480, and subsequent, related cases. Certification of Agency Indebtedness A significant provision of the Redevelopment Law, Section 33675, was added by the Legislature in 1976, providing for the filing not later than the first day of October of each year with the county auditor, a statement of indebtedness certified by the chief fiscal officer of the agency for each redevelopment project which receives tax increments. The statement of indebtedness is required to contain the date on which any bonds were delivered, the principal amount, term, purpose and interest rate of such bonds and the outstanding balance and amount due on such bonds. Similar information must be given for each loan, advance or indebtedness that the agency has incurred or entered into to be payable from tax increment. Section 33675 also provides that the county auditor is limited in payment of tax increment to the agency to the amounts shown on the agency s statement of indebtedness. Section 33675 further provides that the statement of indebtedness is prima facie evidence of the indebtedness of the agency, but that the county auditor may dispute the amount of indebtedness shown on the statement in certain cases. Provision is made for time limits under which the dispute can be made by the county auditor as well as provisions for determination by the Superior Court in a declaratory relief action of the proper disposition of the matter. The issue in any such action will involve only the amount of the indebtedness and not the validity of any contract or debt connection with payments by such public agency pursuant thereto. An exception is made for payments to a public agency in connection with payment by such agency pursuant to a bond issue that shall not be disputed in any action under Section 33675. Therefore, the Bonds of each series should be entitled to the protection of that portion of the statute so that they cannot be disputed by the County auditor. The Agency has met all previous requirements with respect to the filing of its statement of indebtedness pursuant to Section 33675. To date, the County Auditor has never disputed the amounts reported by the Agency in its Section 33675 statement of indebtedness filings. 50

Plan Limitations The Redevelopment Law contains certain time limits for the duration and effectiveness of a redevelopment plan. The Redevelopment Law also imposes a limit on the aggregate amount of tax increment revenues which may be allocated to a redevelopment agency pursuant to its redevelopment plan (except for any plan or territory-adding amendment adopted on or after January 1, 1994) and a time limit on the incurrence of indebtedness to finance its redevelopment projects. In the past three decades, the provisions of the Redevelopment Law pertaining to these limits have undergone a number of amendments, including as the result of AB 1290 in 1994 and SB 211 in 2001. Generally, under Section 33333.6 of the Redevelopment Law, a redevelopment plan (or an amendment that added territory to a project area) adopted before 1994, is subject to the following limits: (1) the duration and effectiveness of the existing redevelopment plan (or amendment) shall not exceed 40 years from the date of its adoption or January 1, 2009, whichever is later; and (2) a redevelopment agency shall not pay indebtedness with tax increment revenues from the project area (or added territory) beyond 10 years after its redevelopment plan (or amendment) expires, except to fund deferred housing set-aside requirements of the Redevelopment Law and to repay indebtedness incurred prior to January 1, 1994. (Before January 1 2002, Section 33333.6 also required that the time limit for establishing indebtedness shall not exceed 20 years from the adoption of the redevelopment plan (or amendment) or January 1, 2004, whichever is later. SB 211 eliminated this requirement.) Before SB 211, Section 33333.6 also permitted an up-to-10 year extension to each of these limits by an amendment to the redevelopment plan upon certain findings by the redevelopment agency. The Agency, in 2003, eliminated the date limitation on the incurrence of additional indebtedness. Under Section 33333.2 of the Redevelopment Law, a redevelopment plan (or an amendment that added territory) adopted on or after January 1, 1994, such as the added territory to the Project Area, must contain the following limitations, except to the extent necessary to comply with certain provisions of the Redevelopment Law pertaining to the Housing Set-Aside: (1) the life of the redevelopment plan (or amendment) shall not exceed 30 years from the date of adoption; (2) the time limit for establishing indebtedness shall not exceed 20 years from the adoption of the redevelopment plan (or amendment), unless extended by amendment under certain limited conditions, and (3) a redevelopment agency shall not pay indebtedness with tax increment revenues from the project area (or added territory) beyond 45 years from the adoption of the redevelopment plan (or amendment). The table below shows the Plan Limitations for the plan expiration dates, the time limits to incur debt and the time limits on payment of indebtedness with tax increment revenues for each component of the Project Area as set forth in the Redevelopment Plan: TABLE 10 Redevelopment Agency of the City of Azusa Amended and Restated Central Business District and West End Redevelopment Project Redevelopment Plan Time Summary Component of Project Area Plan Expiration Last Date to Repay Debt with Tax Increment Central Business District Original Area September 18, 2021 September 18, 2031 CBD Amendment No. 1 July 2, 2022 July 2, 2032 CBD Amendment No. 2 July 20, 2024 July 20, 2034 CBD Amendment No. 3 November 28, 2026 November 28, 2036 CBD Amendment No. 5 December 17, 2026 December 17, 2036 West End Original Area November 28, 2026 November 28, 2036 CBD Amendment No. 8 November 6, 2034 November 6, 2049 51

The bonded debt limit for the entire Project Area, is $68 million. The tax increment limit for the Project Area, excluding CBD Amendment No. 8, is $114,931,075. The tax increment limit for the Project Area is equivalent to the combined limit for all components of the Project Area. The tax increment revenues allocable to the Agency from the Project Area (exclusive of the Added Territory to the Project Area pursuant to CBD Amendment No. 8 which has no tax increment limit) has a combined tax increment limit of $114.9 million pursuant to the most recent plan amendment. The Agency has been allocated $72,799,781 in tax increment revenue, excluding CBD Amendment No. 8 through August 2006. Through August 2006, CBD Amendment No. 8 has been allocated a total of $98,014. The tax increment paid to affected taxing entities pursuant to Sections 33401, 33445, 33607.5 and 33607.7 of the Redevelopment Law and the amount set aside for low and moderate income housing are excluded from this limit. To date, the Agency has received $37,262,042 through August 2006, net of these deductions. The assumptions stated in the tax increment projections show that the Agency will reach its tax increment limits in Fiscal Year 2026-27. The Agency is authorized to receive Tax Revenues until November 2036, however, tax increment projections show the Agency will reach its limit on the amount of tax increment it can receive in Fiscal year 2026-27. The Agency has made a covenant to annually calculate the tax increment received against the remaining tax increment limitation. To the extent that the tax increment remaining to be received against the tax increment limitation is less than 110% of the total debt service on the Series A Bonds, the Series B Bonds and all Senior Lien Bonds, then the Agency will cause bonds to be redeemed, in order of seniority of lien, so that the remaining tax increment limitation shall be above 110% of debt service on the Series A Bonds, the Series B Bonds and the Senior Lien Bonds. See APPENDIX E SUMMARY OF LEGAL DOCUMENTS Covenants of the Agency (22) Annual Accounting of Tax Increment Revenues. The Agency has covenanted under the Indenture to manage its fiscal affairs in a manner which enables it to comply with the Plan Limitations, and not to issue any bonds, notes on other obligations which would cause the Plan Limitations to be exceeded or violated. TAX MATTERS Best Best & Krieger LLP, Riverside, California, as Bond Counsel, will render an opinion which states that the Indentures are a valid and binding obligation of the Agency and enforceable in accordance with its terms. The legal opinion of Bond Counsel will be subject to the effect of bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium and other similar laws affecting creditors rights and limitations on remedies against public entities such as the Agency, and to the exercise of judicial discretion in accordance with general principles of equity. See APPENDIX E for the proposed form of Bond Counsel s opinion. Bond Counsel further opines, based upon an analysis of existing statutes, regulations, rulings and court decisions, interest on the Series B Bonds is excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes under Section 103 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the 1986 Code ). Bond Counsel is further of the opinion that interest on the Series B Bonds is not treated as an item of tax preference for purposes of the individual and corporate alternative minimum taxes. Interest on the Series B Bonds, however, is included in the adjusted current earnings of certain corporations, and the alternative minimum taxable income of such corporations must be increased by 75 percent of the excess of the adjusted current earnings of such corporations over the alternative minimum taxable income (determined without regard to such adjustment and prior to reduction for certain net operating losses) of such corporations. The 1986 Code and other applicable tax law impose various restrictions, conditions and requirements relating to the exclusion from gross income for federal income tax purposes of interest on or with respect to obligations such as the Series B Bonds. The Agency has covenanted to comply with certain restrictions designed to ensure that interest with respect to the Series B Bonds will not be included in federal gross income. Failure to comply with these covenants may result in interest on the Series B Bonds becoming subject to federal income taxation retroactive to the date of issuance of the Series B 52

Bonds. The opinion of Bond Counsel assumes compliance with these covenants. Bond Counsel has not undertaken to determine (or to inform any person) whether any actions taken (or not taken) or events occurring (or not occurring) after the date of delivery of the Series B Bonds may affect the tax status of interest on the Series B Bonds. The receipt of interest on the Series B Bonds may otherwise affect an Owner s income tax liability. The nature and extent of these other tax consequences will depend upon the Owner s particular tax status and the Owner s other items of income and deduction. Bond Counsel expresses no opinion regarding such consequences. Purchasers of the Series B Bonds, particularly purchasers that are corporations (including S corporations, and United States branches of foreign corporations), property and casualty insurance companies, banks, thrifts or other financial institutions, recipients of Social Security or Railroad Retirement benefits, or taxpayers who may be deemed to have incurred (or continued) indebtedness to purchase or carry tax-exempt obligations, should consult their tax advisors concerning their tax consequences of purchasing and holding the Series B Bonds. The Internal Revenue Service (the IRS ) has initiated an expanded program for the auditing of tax-exempt bond issues, including both random and targeted audits. It is possible that the Bonds will be selected for audit by the IRS. It is also possible that the market value of the Bonds might be affected as a result of such an audit of the Bonds (or by an audit of other similar bonds). It is possible that subsequent to the issuance of the Bonds there might be federal, state or local statutory changes (or judicial or regulatory interpretations of federal, state, or local law) that affect the federal, state or local tax treatment of the Bonds or the market value of the Bonds. No assurance can be given that subsequent to the issuance of the Bonds such changes or interpretations will not occur. From time to time, there are legislative proposals in Congress that, if enacted, could alter or amend the federal tax matters referred to above or adversely affect the market value of the Series B Bonds. It cannot be predicted whether or in what form any such proposal might be enacted or whether if enacted it would apply to Series B Bonds issued prior to enactment. Each purchaser of the Series B Bonds should consult his or her tax advisor regarding any pending or proposed federal legislation. Bond Counsel expresses no opinion regarding any pending or proposed federal tax legislation. Certain requirements and procedures contained or referred to in the Indenture and other relevant documents may be changed and certain actions may be taken or omitted under the circumstances and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in such documents, upon the advice or with the approving opinion of nationally recognized bond counsel. Bond Counsel expresses no opinion as to any Series B Bond or interest with respect thereto if any such change occurs or action is taken or omitted upon the advice or approval of counsel other than Bond Counsel. In the opinion of Bond Counsel, under existing law, interest on the Series A Bonds and the Series B Bonds are exempt from California personal income tax. In the opinion of Bond Counsel, under existing law, interest on the Series A Bonds is included as gross income for federal income tax purposes. Although Bond Counsel will render an opinion that interest on the Series B Bonds is excluded from federal gross income and that interest on the Series A Bonds and Series B Bonds is exempt from California personal income tax, the accrual or receipt of interest on the Series A Bonds and Series B Bonds may otherwise affect an Owner s federal or state tax liability. The nature and extent of these other tax consequences will depend upon the Owner s particular tax status and the Owner s other items of income or deduction. Bond Counsel express no opinion regarding any such other tax consequences. Defeasance of any Series A Bond may result in a reissuance thereof, in which event a holder will recognize taxable gain or loss equal to the difference between the amount realized from the sale, 53

exchange or retirement (less any accrued qualified stated interest which will be taxable as such) and the holder s adjusted tax basis in the Series A Bond. To ensure compliance with the requirements imposed by the Internal Revenue Service, purchasers and Owners of the Series A Bonds should be aware that any federal income tax advice contained in this Official Statement (including the Appendices) is not intended or written to be used, and cannot be used, for the purpose of avoiding penalties under the Internal Revenue Code, promoting, marketing or recommending to another party any transaction or matter addressed herein. The advice was written to support the promotion or marketing of the Series A Bonds. A complete copy of the proposed form of opinion of Bond Counsel with respect to the Series A Bonds and Series B Bonds is set forth in APPENDIX D hereto. FINANCIAL ADVISOR C.M. de Crinis & Co. has acted as financial advisor to the Agency concerning the Bonds. As financial advisor, C.M. de Crinis & Co. will receive compensation contingent upon the sale and delivery of the Bonds. RATINGS ON THE SERIES A BONDS Standard & Poor s ( S&P ) and Moody s Investors Service ( Moody s ) have assigned a rating of AAA and Aaa, respectively, to the Series A Bonds, conditioned on the issuance by the Bond Insurer of the Bond Insurance Policy at the time of delivery of the Series A Bonds. Such ratings reflect only the views of such organization and any desired explanation of the significance of such ratings may be obtained from S&P and Moody s. Generally, a rating agency bases its rating on the information and materials furnished to it and on investigations, studies and assumptions of its own. There is no assurance such ratings will continue for any given period of time or that such ratings will not be revised downward or withdrawn entirely by the rating agencies, if in the judgment of such rating agencies, circumstances so warrant. Any such downward revision or withdrawal of such ratings may have an adverse effect on the market price of the Series A Bonds. The Series B Bonds are not rated by any rating agency and are not insured by any municipal bond insurance company. UNDERWRITING De La Rosa & Co. (the Underwriter ) is offering the Bonds at the prices set forth on the inside cover page hereof. The Bonds are issued for sale to the Azusa Public Financing Authority which will concurrently sell the Bonds to the Underwriter. The initial offering prices may be changed from time to time and concessions from the offering prices may be allowed to dealers, banks and others. The Underwriter has purchased the Series A Bonds at a price equal to $15,514,677.55 which amount represents the principal amount of the Series A Bonds, less an Underwriter s discount of $106,515.00 and less an original issue discount of $158,807.45. The Underwriter has purchased the Series B Bonds at a price equal to $4,718,628.20 which amount represents the principal amount of the Series B Bonds, less an Underwriter s discount of $57,480.00 and less an original issue discount of $13,891.80. NO LITIGATION There is no litigation pending or, to the Agency s knowledge, threatened to restrain or enjoin the issuance, execution or delivery of the Bonds, to contest the validity of the Bonds, the Indentures, or any proceedings of the Agency with respect thereto. In the opinion of the Agency and its counsel, except as otherwise described herein, there are no lawsuits or claims pending against the Agency which will 54

materially affect the Agency s finances as to impair the ability to pay principal of and interest on the Bonds when due. LEGAL MATTERS The legality of the issuance of the Bonds is subject to the approval of Best Best & Krieger LLP, Riverside, California, Bond Counsel. Bond Counsel s opinions with respect to the Bonds of each series will be substantially in the forms set forth in APPENDIX E of this Official Statement. Fees payable to Bond Counsel are contingent upon successful sale and delivery of the Bonds. VERIFICATION OF MATHEMATICAL COMPUTATIONS Barthe & Wahrman P.A. CPAs, a firm of independent public accountants, will deliver to the Agency, on or before the date of delivery of the 2007 Bonds, its verification report indicating that it has verified the mathematical accuracy of (a) compilation proposed on behalf of the Agency related to the sufficiency of amounts on deposit and expected investment earnings thereon with respect to the Escrow Fund and (b) the mathematical compilation of yield used by Bond Counsel to support its opinion that interest on the Series B Bonds will be excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes. CONTINUING DISCLOSURE Pursuant to Rule 15c2-12 of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the Rule ), the Agency has undertaken for the benefit of holders of the Bonds to provide certain financial information and operating data relating to the Agency by not later than nine months after the end of each Fiscal Year commencing with the report for the 2006-07 fiscal year (the Annual Information ), and to provide notices of the occurrence of certain enumerated events, if deemed by the Agency to be material. The Annual Information will be filed by the Agency, with each Nationally Recognized Municipal Securities Information Repository (the NRMSIRS ) and with the State Information Depository (the State Depository ), if any. Notices of material events will be filed by or on behalf of the Agency with the NRMSIRS or the Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board (the MSRB ) and with the State Depository, if any. The nature of the information to be provided in the Annual Information and the notices of material events is set forth under the caption APPENDIX G FORM OF CONTINUING DISCLOSURE CERTIFICATE. The Agency is obligated to prepare annual continuing disclosure reports with respect to the Bonds. The Agency has prepared such annual reports, but has not filed those reports with the NRMSIRS as required. The Agency has complied, however, with its most recent year s annual report. MISCELLANEOUS All of the preceding summaries of the Indenture, the Redevelopment Law, other applicable legislation, the Redevelopment Plan for the Project Area, agreements and other documents are made subject to the provisions of such documents respectively and do not purport to be complete statements of any or all of such provisions. Reference is hereby made to such documents on file with the Agency for further information in connection therewith. Any statements made in this Official Statement involving matters of opinion or of estimates, whether or not so expressly stated, are set forth as such and not as representations of fact, and no representation is made that any of the estimates will be realized. 55

History and Development of Community Blessed with a spectacular natural setting beneath the San Gabriel Mountains, the City is a community with a strong sense of family and history. Founded over one hundred years ago in 1887 and incorporated December 29, 1898, its name traces to a native village that existed long before Spanish explorers arrived in 1769. Called the El Susa Rancho during California s Mexican era, the City boomed in population after the coming of the railroad. The area grew after 1854 when gold was discovered in the San Gabriel Canyon. By 1860 the town had over 2,000 inhabitants and the United States government bought much of the land from founder Henry Dalton for homesteading. After acquiring the highly prized orchard community of Azusa Rancho from Dalton in 1880, Jonathan D. Slauson, a Los Angeles banker laid out the City in 1887. Oranges and lemons soon gave way to homes and industry affording new generations of families and entrepreneurs to pursue the American dream of owning a home, starting a business and creating a brighter future for their children. Today with a population of 48,300 residents, the City boasts a vibrant industrial base and diverse neighborhoods. With active citizens charting a new vision, the City is becoming a model of an older suburban community undergoing exciting renewal to continue to be the Gateway to the American Dream. A-4

Appendix C REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY OF THE CITY OF AZUSA AMENDED AND RESTATED MERGED CENTRAL BUSINESS DISTRICT AND WEST END REDEVELOPMENT PROJECT AREA PROJECTED TAXABLE VALUES AND ANTICIPATED TAX INCREMENT REVENUES June 26, 2007 I. Introduction The Redevelopment Agency of the City of Azusa (the Agency ) will issue its Amended and Restated Merged Central Business District and West End Redevelopment Project Area Taxable Tax Allocation Bonds (Subordinate Lien) 2007 Series A (the Series A Bonds ) and the Amended and Restated Merged Central Business District and West End Redevelopment Project Area Tax Allocation Bonds (Second Subordinate Lien) 2007 Series B Bonds (the Series B Bonds, collectively with the Series A Bonds, the Bonds ) under two separate Indentures, by and between the Agency and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as trustee. The Bonds will be issued as two separate series of bonds and are each payable from and secured by certain tax increment revenues eligible for allocation to the Agency in connection with the Agency s Amended and Restated Central Business District and West End Redevelopment Project Area (the Project Area ) as provided for in the Redevelopment Plan and certain funds and accounts held under the Indentures. The Bonds are being issued for sale to the Azusa Public Financing Authority, which is concurrently selling the Bonds to the Underwriter. Proceeds of the Series A Bonds will be used to (i) provide funds to finance redevelopment projects, (ii) satisfy the Reserve Requirement for the Series A Bonds, and (iii) pay costs incurred in connection with the issuance, sale and delivery of the Series A Bonds. Proceeds of the Series B Bonds will be used to (i) refund on a current basis the $6,470,000 Redevelopment Agency of the City of Azusa Merged Project Area Tax Allocation Refunding Bonds 1997 Series A (the 1997 Bonds ), (ii) satisfy the Reserve Requirement for the Series B Bonds, and (iii) pay costs incurred in connection with the issuance, sale and ^delivery of the Series B Bonds. The California Community Redevelopment Law (the Law) provides for the creation of redevelopment agencies by cities and counties for the purpose of the elimination of blight. The Law, together with Article 16, Section 16 of the California Constitution, authorizes redevelopment agencies to receive that portion of property tax revenue generated by project area taxable values that are in excess of 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. Tax revenues generated from the incremental taxable value are, for purposes of this report, referred to as Gross Tax Revenues. The Law provides that the tax increment revenues may be pledged by the redevelopment agency to the repayment of agency indebtedness. In this report, Gross Tax Revenues including Unitary Tax Revenue (see Section IV, Allocation of State Assessed Unitary Taxes) are referred to as Gross Revenues. For purposes of this report, Tax Revenues are defined as Gross Revenues less the Housing Set-Aside Requirement (see Section V, Low and Moderate Income Housing Set-Aside), SB 2557 County Administrative fees (see Section IV, County

Redevelopment Agency of the City of Azusa Fiscal Consultant s Report June 26, 2007, Page 2 Collection Charges), tax sharing payments and any pledges of Gross Revenues that have a lien that is superior to that of the debt service payments on the Bonds. The purpose of this fiscal consultant report (the Report) is to examine the current fiscal year and project for nine fiscal years the amount of tax increment revenues anticipated to be received by the Agency from the Project Area. As a result of our research, we project that the Tax Revenues that will be pledged to the payment of debt service on the Bonds will be as shown in Table A below (000 s omitted): Fiscal Year Table A Merged Project Area Tax Revenues CBD Amend. 1 Amend. 2 Amend. 3 Amend. 4 Amend. 8 West End Merged 2006-07 $588 $ 7 $188 $183 $155 $ 75 $1,986 $3,183 2007-08 623 10 200 185 154 89 1,977 3,240 2008-09 635 11 206 186 153 98 1,988 3,277 2009-10 646 11 210 189 155 105 2,019 3,335 2010-11 658 11 214 191 157 113 2,056 3,400 2011-12 670 11 218 194 160 120 2,094 3,467 2012-13 682 11 222 197 162 128 2,132 3,535 2013-14 95 12 226 199 165 136 2,171 3,604 2014-15 706 12 229 201 168 144 2,202 3,662 2015-16 717 12 232 202 170 150 2,234 3,717 The taxable values of property and the resulting Tax Revenues for the Merged Project Area and its component project areas summarized above are reflected on Tables 1 and 2 of the projection (attached). The projection is based on assumptions determined by our review of the taxable value history of the Merged Project Area and the property tax assessment and property tax apportionment procedures of the Los Angeles County Auditor-Controller (the Auditor-Controller ) and the Los Angeles County Assessor (the Assessor ). The projection illustrates the entire amount of Tax Revenues projected as being available from the Merged Project Area. It is assumed that the Agency will continue to have sufficient debt to capture all of the available Tax Revenues. Future year assessed values and Tax Revenues are projections based on the assumptions described in this Report and are not guaranteed as to accuracy. This Report is not to be construed as a representation of such by HdL Coren & Cone. II. The Project Area The City Council of the City of Azusa (the City ) adopted the redevelopment plan establishing the CBD Project by Ordinance No. 2062 on September 18, 1978. The CBD Project has been amended eight times since its adoption and five of these amendments added territory. The West End Project was adopted by Ordinance No. 2196 on November 28, 1983. The Merged Project Area is approximately 1,397 acres in size and consists of numerous non-contiguous areas within the City. Approximately 1,077 acres of the Merged Project Area exists within the West End Project. The Merged Project Area accounts for approximately 24 percent of the total acreage within the City. C - 2

Redevelopment Agency of the City of Azusa Fiscal Consultant s Report June 26, 2007, Page 3 The CBD Project and its Amendment Areas 1 through 4 and Amendment 8 include the main business corridor along Azusa Boulevard from Baseline Avenue on the South to 9 th Street on the north and contain selected non-contiguous areas to the north, south and east. The West End Project abuts the City s western border from Gladstone Avenue on the south to Sierra Madre Boulevard on the north and extends almost to San Gabriel Canyon Road on the east. The West End Project encompasses much of the property within the city that is either developed as or zoned for industrial use. The adoption dates and adoptive ordinance information for the various component project areas are listed below.

Redevelopment Agency of the City of Azusa Fiscal Consultant s Report June 26, 2007, Page 4 number of parcels within the Project Area. Of the 98 vacant parcels, five of them are within Amendment 2 and these parcels total 18.9 acres. Forty vacant parcels totaling 5.74 acres are within CBD and 47 parcels totaling 447.23 acres are within West End. Within Amendment 8 there are six vacant parcels totaling 3.1 acres. B. Redevelopment Plan Limits Chapter 942, Statutes of 1993 (See Section VI B below), as codified in Section 33333.6 of the Law, limits the life of redevelopment plans adopted prior to January 1, 1994 to 40 years from the date of adoption or January 1, 2009, whichever is later. It also limits the period within which a redevelopment project area may receive tax increment to the life of the redevelopment plan plus ten years beyond the termination of redevelopment activities except to accommodate certain specific low and moderateincome housing obligations or to pay debt service on bonds, indebtedness or other financial obligations authorized prior to January 1, 1994. Such redevelopment plans are further required to include a limitation on the number of tax increment dollars that may be allocated to the redevelopment agency; a time limit on the establishing of indebtedness to be repaid with tax increment; and a limit on the amount of bonded indebtedness to be repaid with tax increment that can be outstanding at one time. These limits can be extended only by an amendment of the redevelopment plan. For redevelopment plans adopted prior to 1994, Chapter 942 stipulates that the time limit for establishing indebtedness shall not exceed 20 years from the adoption of the redevelopment plan or January 1, 2004, whichever is later. Chapter 741, Statutes of 2001, was adopted under SB 211 and amends several sections of the Law that control time limitations for redevelopment project areas. Limitations, that under prior legislation could not be amended or had different amendment procedures, in accordance with this section, may be modified through project area amendments as set forth in this section of the Law (see Section VI, Legislation). As provided within Senate Bill 1045, the Agency amended the component redevelopment plans using a simplified amendment process and extended for one year the dates of plan expiration and last date to repay debt using tax increment for each of the component portions of the Project Area (see Section VI). The Agency adopted such an amendment on October 4, 2004. The one year extension of the effective life of the Project Area and the period within which the Agency may repay debt from tax increment revenues were adopted as Ordinance No. 04-09 and are reflected in the dates shown in Table D. As provided within Senate Bill 1096, the Agency amended the component redevelopment plans using a simplified amendment process and extended for one year the dates of plan expiration and last date to repay debt using tax increment for each of the component portions of the Project Area (see Section VI). The Agency adopted such an amendment on February 5, 2007. The two one year extensions of the effective life of several of the component portions of the Project Area and the period within which the Agency may repay debt from tax increment revenues in these component areas were adopted as Ordinance No. 07-04 and are reflected in the dates shown in Table D. All of the component sub-areas of the Project Area were adopted prior to January 1, 1994 except Amendment 8. The redevelopment plan limits currently governing the component sub-area redevelopment plans are summarized in Table D. The Project Area limit on receipt of tax increment revenue is defined as the total amount of tax increment revenue allocated to the Agency less the amount required to be set-aside by the Housing Set-Aside Requirement (see Section V) and less the C - 4

Redevelopment Agency of the City of Azusa Fiscal Consultant s Report June 26, 2007, Page 5 amounts that are passed through to taxing entities to alleviate financial burdens caused by the Agency pursuant to Section 33401 of the Law (see Section VII A) and apply to all component sub-areas except Amendment 8. The limit on the amount of bonded indebtedness that may be outstanding at any one time is a combined limit that is applicable to all component sub-areas.

Through August, 2005 Amendment 8 has been allocated a total of $98,014. The Project Area tax increment limits state that the Project Area is limited to receiving a total of $114,931,075 after deducting the amounts set aside for Low and Moderate Income Housing and the tax sharing amounts paid to taxing entities. The statutes authorizing payments to the Education Revenue Augmentation Fund provided that the amounts paid shall not be counted against the Agency s tax increment limits (See Section IV). The amount of tax increment received by the Agency from the Project Area, excluding Amendment 8, net of these reductions is $37,262,042 through August, 2006. Based on the assumptions used for the projection, the Project Area will likely reach its tax increment limits during fiscal year 2026-27. If the growth of Project Area revenues exceeds the assumptions used for the projection, the tax increment limit may be reach sooner. The revenues from Amendment 8 are not included in the calculation of the tax increment limit for the other portions of the Project Area. III. Project Area Assessed Values A. Assessed Values Taxable values are prepared and reported by the County Auditor-Controller each fiscal year and represent the aggregation of all locally assessed properties that are part of the Project Area. The assessments are assigned to Tax Rate Areas (TRA) that are coterminous with the boundaries of the Project Area. The historic reported taxable values for the Project Area were reviewed in order to ascertain the rate of taxable property valuation growth over the ten most recent fiscal years beginning with 1997-98. Between 1997-98 and 2003-04, the taxable value within the Project Area increased by $186,837,326 (39.69%). During this period secured values increased by $187,417,802 (47.7%) and unsecured values decreased by $580,476 (-0.75%). Except for very modest reductions in 1998-99 and 1999-00, values have increased in each year at a pace far in excess of inflation. With the adoption of Amendment 8 and the addition of this territory, the base year value for the Project Area was increased. Amendment 8 has been part of the Project Area beginning with fiscal year 2004-05. From 2004-05 C - 5

Redevelopment Agency of the City of Azusa Fiscal Consultant s Report June 26, 2007, Page 6 through 2006-07 the assessed value of the Project Area has increased by $134,076,219 (18.4%). During this period, secured values have risen by $123,991,872 (19.24%) and unsecured values have risen by $10,084,347 (11.95%). Since 1997-98 there have been only two years in which there was any reduction in assessed value. These were 1998-99 and 1999-00. In these fiscal years there were declines in total value of $1,874,326 (-0.4%) and $4,746,783 (-1.01%) respectively. Incremental values were reduced by 0.59% for 1998-99 and by 1.49% for 1999-00. The reductions in value for 1998-99 were entirely within the Project Area s unsecured values and for 1999-00 the reductions in value were entirely within the secured roll values. These losses of value appear to reflect the general decline of California real estate markets during this period. Incremental values have increased in every year beginning with 2000-01 and the growth in incremental value has exceeded 10% annually in every year except 2005-06 when growth in incremental value was 9.58%. In fiscal year 2001-02 the Project Area experienced a sizeable decline in secured values and a sizable increase in unsecured value. The two changes resulted in an overall increase in value of 10.1% from the prior year. This adjustment was reversed for 2002-03 by a large increase in secured value and a large decline in unsecured value. These value fluctuations are related to shifts in value for the Northrop Grumman properties. The values that were on the secured roll were shifted to the unsecured roll as the property transferred ownership from Aerojet General Corporation to Northrop Grumman. The value was shifted back to the secured roll for 2002-03. Values have grown steadily in both categories since 2002-03. B. Top Ten Taxable Property Owners A review of the top ten taxpayers in the Project Area for fiscal year 2006-07 was conducted. Within the Project Area, the aggregate total taxable value for the ten largest taxpayers totaled $266,906,923. This amount is 40.10% of the $665,605,315 Project Area incremental value. The top taxpayer in the Project Area is Northrop Grumman Systems Corp., which controls five secured parcels with a value of $124,808,056. This taxpayer s property is used for manufacturing and warehousing facilities. The value of the Northrop Grumman property is 18.75% of the Project Area total incremental value and 14.47% of the total Project Area assessed value. The second largest taxpayer in the Project Area is PPF Industrial 823 985 8 th Street LP that controls a total of $28,689,029 in secured assessed value on four industrial properties. This amount is 4.31% of the Project Area s incremental value and 3.33% of its total value. Three of the top ten taxpayers have assessment appeals pending before the Assessment Appeals Board of Los Angeles County. Costco Wholesale Corporation is seeking a 50% reduction in their fixture and personal property tax roll value for the 2003-04, 2004-05, 2005-06 and 2006-07 fiscal years. The requested reductions are $1.66 million for 2003-04, $1.47 million for 2004-05, $1.32 million for 2005-06 and $1.29 million for 2006-07. Reichold Inc. is requesting a 50% reduction of their 2006-07 assessed value. The requested reductions total $6.8 million. S & S Foods LLC is similarly requesting a 50% reduction of their 2006-07 unsecured fixture and personal property values that, if allowed, would result in a reduction in value of $6.8 million. All of these pending assessment appeals appear to be pro-forma requests for reduction in value and not based economic circumstances. Table E illustrates the percentage of incremental value for the top ten taxpayers in the Project Area and their relative importance to the Project Area s incremental value. C - 6

Tax Allocation and Disbursement A. Property Taxes The taxable values of property are established each year on the property tax lien date. Prior to 1997 the lien date was March 1 for locally assessed property and January 1 for State assessed utility property. Beginning with 1997, the lien date became January 1 for locally assessed property also. Real Property reflects the reported assessed values for secured and unsecured land and improvements. Pursuant to Article XIIIA of the State Constitution the value of locally assessed Real Property may only be increased by up to two percent annually to reflect inflation. In most cases Real Property values are permitted to increase to full market value as a result of a change of ownership or new construction. Utility property assessed by the State Board of Equalization may be revalued annually and such assessments are not subject to the inflation limitations of Article XIIIA. The taxable value of Personal Property is also established on the lien dates and is not subject to the annual inflationary adjustment that is applied to locally assessed Real Property. Secured property includes property on which any property tax levied by a county becomes a lien on that property. Unsecured property typically includes value for tenant improvements, fixtures, inventory and personal 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 secured property owned by the taxpayer. The taxes levied on unsecured property are levied at the previous year's secured property tax rate. C - 7

Redevelopment Agency of the City of Azusa Fiscal Consultant s Report June 26, 2007, Page 8 B. Supplemental Assessments and Redemption Revenues Chapter 498 of the Statutes of 1983 provides for the reassessment of property upon a change of ownership or completion of new construction. Such reassessment is referred to as the Supplemental Assessment and is determined by applying the current year's tax rate to the amount of increase in a property's value and prorating the resulting property taxes to reflect the portion of the tax year remaining as determined by the date of the change in ownership or completion of new construction. Supplemental Assessments become a lien against Real Property. Since 1984-85 revenues derived from Supplemental Assessments have been allocated to redevelopment agencies and taxing entities in the same manner as regularly collected property taxes. The receipt of Supplemental Tax Revenues by taxing entities typically follows the change of ownership by a year or more. We have not included revenues resulting from Supplemental Assessments in the projections. When property taxes are not paid in a timely manner, the County Auditor Controller seeks to collect those unpaid taxes in accordance with State law. As these unpaid taxes are collected, the recovered amounts along with penalties and interest are placed in a common countywide pool and distributed among the various taxing entities, cities and redevelopment project areas in proportion to the amount of delinquent taxes that have been collected. Thus, if the County collects 10% of the amount of delinquent taxes that are outstanding, all taxing entities are allocated 10% of the amount of outstanding delinquent amounts for that taxing entity. The amount of outstanding delinquent taxes is continually adjusted for the amount of new delinquencies and for the amounts that are repaid from redemptions. We have not included Redemption Revenues in the projections. Table F illustrates the amounts of Supplemental and Redemption Revenues that have been received by the Agency for the Project Area component sub-areas during the previous two fiscal years. Amendment 8 has received no revenue as yet and has been excluded from this table.

Redevelopment Agency of the City of Azusa Fiscal Consultant s Report June 26, 2007, Page 9 C. Tax Rates Tax rates will vary from area to area within the State, as well as within a community and a project area. The tax rate for any particular parcel is based upon the jurisdictions levying the tax rate for the area where the parcel is located. The tax rate consists of the general levy rate of $1.00 per $100 of taxable values and the over-ride tax rate. The over-ride rate is that portion of the tax rate that exceeds the general levy tax rate and is levied to pay voter approved indebtedness or contractual obligations that existed prior to the enactment of Proposition XIII. A Constitutional amendment approved in June 1983 allows the levy of over-ride tax rates to repay indebtedness for the acquisition and improvement of real property, upon approval by a two-thirds vote. A subsequent amendment of the Constitution prohibits the allocation to redevelopment agencies of tax revenues derived from over-ride tax rates levied for repayment of indebtedness approved by the voters after December 31, 1988. The over-ride tax rates typically decline each year as a result of (1) increasing property values (which would reduce the over-ride rate that must be levied to meet debt service) and (2) the eventual retirement of debt over time. The Project Area contains a total of 30 Tax Rate Areas (TRAs) of which 4 contain neither taxable value nor have been assigned base year value. A Tax Rate Area is a geographic area within which the taxes on all property are levied by a certain set of taxing entities. These taxing entities each receive a prorated share of the general levy and those taxing entities with voter approved over-ride tax rates receive the revenue resulting from that tax rate. The tax increment projections are based on the levied tax rates for 2006-07. Within the various TRAs there are five different tax rates, however, the components of these tax rates that differentiate them from one another are debt service overrides that were approved by voters after January 1, 1989 and do not, therefore, generate revenue to the Agency. Table G illustrates the different tax rates that are applicable to the TRAs within the Project Area, the number of TRAs to which each tax rate is applied and the incremental value attributable to each tax rate.

Allocation of Taxes Taxes paid by property owners are due in two equal installments. Installments of taxes levied upon secured property become delinquent on December 10 and April 10. Taxes on unsecured property are due March 1 and become delinquent August 31. The County disburses Tax Increment Revenue to all redevelopment agencies from November through August with approximately 35 percent of secured revenues apportioned by the end of December and a total of 75% of the secured revenues by the end of the following April. Unsecured revenues are disbursed in November, March and August of each fiscal year. The November payment consists of an 80% advance on the total unsecured levy. E. Annual Tax Receipts to Tax Levy The Agency received a total of $6,809,050 in tax increment revenue from the Project Area for fiscal year 2005-06. This total is inclusive of revenues from supplemental assessments, homeowner s exemptions, public utilities and prior year collections and net of County withholdings for refunds. The County administration fee of $89,583 was deducted from the Agency s 2005-06 tax revenues. The Agency received a total of $6,352,305 in tax increment revenue for fiscal year 2004-05, inclusive of revenues from supplemental assessments, homeowner s exemptions, public utilities and prior year collections and net of County withholdings for refunds. The County administration fee of $94,002 was deducted from the Agency s 2004-05 tax revenues. The County of Los Angeles apportions tax revenues to redevelopment agencies based upon the amount of the tax levy that is received from the taxpayers. Secured collection rates for the Project Area have been consistently high. The following table illustrates the tax revenue collections for the previous two years. Amendment 8 is omitted because it has no collection history to report. C - 10

F. Assessment Appeals Assessment appeals data from Los Angeles County has been reviewed to determine the potential impact that pending appeals may have on the projected Tax Revenues. We have determined that there are pending assessment appeals within West End and no pending assessment appeals within CBD or Amendments 1, 2, 3, 4 or 8. In order to estimate the potential reduction in assessed value that may occur as a result of the pending appeals within West End, we have reviewed the historical averages for the number of appeals allowed and the amount of assessed value removed. We have then applied those averages to the currently pending appeals and estimated the number of pending appeals that may be allowed and the amount of assessed value that may be removed as a result of these pending appeals. Three of the pending assessment appeals have been filed by Costco Wholesale Corporation. Costco Wholesale Corporation is seeking a 50% reduction in their fixture and personal property tax roll value for the 2003-04, 2004-05, 2005-06 and 2006-07 fiscal years. The requested reductions are $1.66 million for 2003-04, $1.47 million for 2004-05, $1.32 million for 2005-06 and $1.29 million for 2006-07. Reichold Inc. is requesting a 50% reduction of their 2006-07 assessed value. The requested reductions total $6.8 million. S & S Foods LLC is similarly requesting a 50% reduction of their 2006-07 unsecured fixture and personal property values that, if allowed, would result in a reduction in value of $6.8 million. All of these pending assessment appeals appear to be pro-forma requests for reduction in value and not based economic circumstances. The Project Area s top taxpayer, Northrop Grumman, had assessment appeals on valuations for 2002-03and 2003-04 denied. They have no appeals pending on any of their properties for any subsequent years. Within West End and based on assessment appeals data through March, 2007 and using the historical averages for owners successfully appealing their assessed values we project that a total of $5,373,957 in assessed value will be taken from the 2007-08 tax rolls. This projected reduction has been incorporated into the projection of tax revenues. The factors resulting in this projected loss are outlined in Table I. C - 11

County Collection Charges Chapter 466 allows counties to recover charges for property tax administration in an amount equal to their 1989-90 property tax administration costs, as adjusted annually. For fiscal year 2006-07, the County collection charges are $87,807. This amount is estimated to be 1.25% of the anticipated Gross Revenue for 2006-07. For the purposes of this report and the projection of tax revenue, it is assumed that the charge as a percentage of Gross Revenue will remain at 1.25%. We have assumed that the County will continue to charge the Agency for property tax administration and that such charge will increase proportionally with any increases in revenue. H. Allocation of State Assessed Unitary Taxes Legislation enacted in 1986 (Chapter 1457) and 1987 (Chapter 921) provided for a modification of the distribution of tax revenues derived from utility property assessed by the State Board of Equalization (SBE), other than railroads. Prior to the 1988-89 fiscal year, property assessed by the SBE was assessed statewide and was allocated according to the location of individual components of a utility in a tax rate area. Commencing in 1988-89, tax revenues derived from unitary property and assessed by the SBE are accumulated in a single Tax Rate Area for the County. It is then distributed to each taxing entity in the County in the following manner: (1) each taxing entity will receive the same amount as in the previous year plus an increase for inflation of up to two percent; (2) if utility tax revenues are insufficient to provide the same amount as in the previous year, each taxing entity's share would be reduced pro-rata county wide; and (3) any increase in revenue above two percent would be allocated in the same proportion as the taxing entity's local secured taxable values are to the local secured taxable values of the County. To administer the allocation of unitary tax revenues to redevelopment agencies, the County no longer includes the taxable value of utilities as part of the reported taxable values of the project area, therefore, the base year of project areas have been reduced by the amount of utility value that existed originally in the base year. The Auditor Controller allocated a total of $77,492 of unitary tax revenue to the Project Area for 2005-06. For purposes of this projection, we have assumed that this amount of unitary revenue will continue to be allocated to the Project Area in the same amount for the life of the projection. The amount of unitary revenue allocated to each of the component sub-areas for 2006-07 is shown in Table J below. Table J 2006-07 Unitary Revenue CBD Amend. 1 Amend. 2 Amend. 3 Amend. 4 West End Combined $53,261 $20 $364 $1,217 $6,010 $21,645 $82,517 No unitary revenue has been allocated to Amendment 8 for 2005-06 or 2006-07 and this is anticipated to continue. No unitary revenue has been anticipated in the projection as coming from Amendment 8. C - 12

Redevelopment Agency of the City of Azusa Fiscal Consultant s Report June 26, 2007, Page 13 V. Low and Moderate Income Housing Set-Aside Sections 33334.2 and 33334.3 of the Law require redevelopment agencies to set aside not less than 20 percent of all tax increment revenues from project areas adopted after December 31, 1976 into a low and moderate income housing fund (the Housing Set-Aside Requirement). An agency can reduce the Housing Set-Aside Requirement if the agency annually makes certain findings, consistent with the General Plan Housing Element. These findings are that: (1) no need exists in the community to improve or increase the supply of low and moderate income housing; or, (2) some stated percentage less than 20 percent of the tax increment is sufficient to meet the housing need. In order to make findings (1) or (2), the Agency's finding must be consistent with the Housing Element of the community's General Plan, including its share of the regional housing needs of very low income households and persons and families of low or moderate income. The Agency has not made such findings in the past and has fully funded the Housing Set-Aside Requirement. Accordingly, there is no funding deficit. We have assumed in the projection that the Agency will continue to meet the Housing Set-Aside Requirement. VI. Legislation SB 211 was signed into law as Chapter 741, Statutes of 2001. This legislation has two main impacts on the limits contained in an agency s redevelopment plan. First, the City may eliminate the time limit to establish indebtedness in project areas adopted prior to January 1, 1994 by ordinance. When a plan is so amended, existing tax sharing agreements will continue unaffected and certain statutory tax sharing for entities without tax sharing agreements will commence in the fiscal year following the year when the time limit is exceeded. (See Section VII A below). Second, a City Council may extend the time limit for plan effectiveness and repayment of debt for up to ten years if it can make certain specified findings. These changes could potentially impact time limits in the Project Area Redevelopment Plan by eliminating or extending these limits. Project areas that have been adopted after January 1, 1994 may only extend the limitation on incurring new debt by making specific findings. On December 1, 2003, the Agency adopted Ordinance No. 03-07 and eliminated the limit on incurrence of indebtedness for those component project areas that were formed prior to January 1, 1994. This amendment did not affect the Amendment 8 because it has no such limit. In order to address State Budget deficits, the Legislature enacted SB 614, SB 844 and SB 1135 that required payments from redevelopment agencies for the 1992-93, 1993-94 and 1994-95 fiscal years into a countywide Education Revenue Augmentation Fund (the ERAF). The Agency could have used any funds legally available and not legally obligated for other uses, including reserve funds, bond proceeds, earned income, and proceeds of land sales, but not moneys in the Low and Moderate Income Housing Fund (the Housing Fund) to satisfy this obligation. An agency could have reduced its payment due to existing indebtedness, contractual obligations and 90 percent of 1991-92 administrative costs (collectively, Existing Obligations). If an agency could not make the required payment due to Existing Obligations, it could, after making certain findings, borrow up to 50 percent of its 1992-93 ERAF obligation from the Housing Fund and repay the borrowed amount by June, 2003, or the agency was required to obtain a loan from the city/county in order to pay the difference between what the agency pays and the total amount due. For agencies that did not borrow to meet any shortfall of the required payment, the county auditor-controller was required to deduct any amount due from the C - 13

Redevelopment Agency of the City of Azusa Fiscal Consultant s Report June 26, 2007, Page 14 city/county's allocation of property taxes. The obligation applied to the agency and not to specific project areas. According to the Agency, the obligations referred to above were satisfied. From 1994-95 through 2001-02, state budgets were adopted with no additional shifting of tax increment from redevelopment agencies. The State Budget for fiscal year 2002-03 required a shift of $75 million of tax increment statewide from redevelopment agencies to ERAF to meet the current state budget shortfall. AB 1768 (Chapter 1127, Statutes of 2002) was enacted by the Legislature and signed by the Governor and based upon the methodology provided in the 2002-03 budget the shift requirement for the Agency was $127,937. This requirement was for fiscal year 2002-03 only. This amount did not impact the Agency s ability to fulfill its loan payment obligations. This shift of revenue is an obligation of the Agency and not of any particular project area. The Agency was permitted to satisfy this obligation with any legally available funds. The Agency made the required payment to the County by the deadline of May 10, 2003. As part of the State s 2003-04 budget legislation, SB 1045 (Chapter 260, Statutes of 2003) requires redevelopment agencies statewide to contribute $135 million to local County Education Revenue Augmentation Funds (ERAF) which reduces the amount of State funding for schools. This transfer of funds was limited to fiscal year 2003-04. Based on the estimates of the California Department of Finance, the amount of revenue that was to be transferred by the Agency to Los Angeles County for 2003-04 was $232,244. The Agency made this payment to the County by the May 10, 2004 deadline. Under the Law as amended by SB 1045, the Agency was authorized to use a simplified methodology to amend the Project Area redevelopment plans to extend by one year the effectiveness of the plan and the time during which the Agency may repay debt with tax increment revenues. In addition, the amount of this payment and the ERAF payments made in prior years may be deducted from the amount of the Project Areas cumulative tax increment revenues. The Agency adopted Ordinance 04-09 on October 4, 2004. By its approval of this ordinance, the Agency extended by one year the effective life of the redevelopment plans and the period within which the Agency may repay indebtedness from tax increment revenues. The limits shown in Table D reflect this extension and they have been incorporated into the projection of tax revenue. The State s 2004-05 budget was approved by the legislature and signed by the Governor. Senate Bill 1096 is a trailer bill that deals with local government. Based on SB 1096, redevelopment agencies will lose $250 million to ERAF in each of the next two fiscal years using the same formula as was used for 2003-04. Annual payments will continue to be due on May 10 of each fiscal year. As in previous years, payments may be made from any available funds other than the Housing Fund. If an agency is unable to make a payment, it may borrow up to 50 percent of the current year housing set-aside amount, however, the borrowed amount must be repaid to the Housing Fund within 10 years of the last ERAF payment (May 10, 2006). The Agency s obligation for 2004-05 was $472,091 and the obligation for 2005-06 was $470,964. Both of these amounts were paid to the County by the deadline. For redevelopment plans with less than ten years of effectiveness remaining from June 30, 2005, the plans may be extended by one year for each year that an ERAF payment is made. For redevelopment plans with 10 to 20 years of effectiveness remaining after June 30, 2005, the plans may be extended by C - 14

Redevelopment Agency of the City of Azusa Fiscal Consultant s Report June 26, 2007, Page 15 one year for each year that an ERAF payment is made if the City Council finds that the Agency is in compliance with specified state housing requirements. These requirements are that the Agency is setting aside 20 percent of gross tax increment revenue; housing implementation plans are in place; replacement housing and inclusionary housing requirements are being met; and, no excess surplus exists. If a redevelopment plan has more than 20 years of effectiveness remaining after June 30, 2005 it may not be extended. By adoption of Ordinance No. 07-04 on February 5, 2007 and pursuant to the terms of SB 1096 the City Council extended the limit on redevelopment plan activities and repayment of indebtedness by two years within CBD, Amendment 1, Amendment 2, Amendment 3 and West End. The limit on redevelopment plan activities and repayment of indebtedness was extended by one year within Amendment 4. The Agency cannot predict whether the State Legislature will enact any other legislation requiring additional or increased future shifts of tax increment revenues to the State and/or to schools, whether through an arrangement similar to ERAF or by other arrangements, and, if so, the effect on future Tax Revenues. VII. Tax Sharing Agreements and Other Obligations A. Tax Sharing Agreements The Agency has entered into no tax sharing agreements with regards to CBD and Amendment 1. Within Amendment 2 the Agency has entered into an agreement with Los Angeles County wherein it agreed to share a stipulated 40 percent portion of annual general levy tax increment revenue with the County General Fund and the County Flood Control District. These payments are calculated by the County and retained by the Auditor-Controller from Agency revenues. Within Amendment 3, the Agency has agreed to share with the County General Fund and the County Flood Control District a stipulated 55.1 percent portion of the project areas annual general levy tax increment revenue. Within Amendment 3 the Agency has additionally agreed to provide the Consolidated Fire Protection District with a 17.9 percent stipulated share of annual general levy tax increment revenue. The Consolidated Fire Protection District is not a taxing entity within tax rate areas of Amendment 3 in that it does not receive a share of the general levy revenue nor does it levy an override tax rate. This circumstance has been acknowledged by the County and the Consolidated Fire Protection District is no longer considered in connection with this agreement. These payments to the General Fund and Flood Control calculated by the County and retained by the Auditor-Controller from Agency revenues. Within Amendment 4, the Agency has entered into an agreement with Los Angeles County to share a stipulated 52 percent portion of the general levy tax increment net of housing set-aside with the County General Fund and the Flood Control District. In addition, the Agency has entered into an agreement with the Azusa Unified School District wherein the District receives 5.11 percent of general levy tax increment revenue net of housing set-aside. These payments were deferred through 2000-01 and interest accrued on the deferred payments from 1996-97 through 2000-01. The deferred amounts and accrued interest were paid by the Agency in fiscal year 2000-01 and is current with all subsequent payments. C - 15

Redevelopment Agency of the City of Azusa Fiscal Consultant s Report June 26, 2007, Page 16 Within West End the Agency entered into an agreement with the County that requires the Agency to share with the County General Fund and Flood Control a stipulated 52 percent of general levy tax increment net of housing set-aside within that portion of the Agency s tax revenue derived from parcels that are outside of an area designated as Parcel A. From tax revenues derived from parcels within the area designated as Parcel A, the County General Fund and Flood Control receive 15 percent of general levy revenue net of housing set-aside. B. Statutory Tax Sharing Payments In accordance with the requirements of Chapter 942, CBD, Amendments 1, 2, 3 and 4 and West End were amended to include a termination date for the Agency s ability to incur indebtedness. For project areas adopted before January 1, 1994, this termination date was defined in Chapter 942 as being the later of 20 years from the date of plan adoption or January 1, 2004. In each case this termination date was set as January 1, 2004. As provided by SB 211 (see Section II B) this limitation was amended out of the redevelopment plan for each of these component sub-areas by adoption of Ordinance No. 03-07 on December 1, 2003. By the elimination of this time limit, the Agency is required to make statutory tax sharing payments as outlined in Section 33607.7 of the Law to all taxing entities that have not already entered into tax sharing agreements with the Agency. For each of the component sub-areas listed above, beginning in 2004-05 and using the project area assessed values for 2003-04 as an adjusted base year value, taxing entities that do not have existing tax sharing agreements will receive their proportionate shares of 25 percent of tax revenue net of housing set-aside. In addition, beginning in the eleventh year after the initiation of these statutory payments and using the assessed values of year ten as an additional adjusted base year value, taxing entities with no existing tax sharing agreements will receive 21 percent of tax revenue net of housing set-aside. A third tier of statutory tax sharing is outlined in the Law but each of the affected component sub-areas will have expired before this third tier can be initiated. According to the Law, the statutory tax sharing payments will continue to be required until the termination date of the component sub-area. As a result, there is no statutory tax sharing obligation during the final ten years that the sub-area is able to repay indebtedness with tax increment revenue. Existing tax sharing agreements are not affected by this limitation. The City of Azusa as a taxing entity is entitled to receive its proportionate share of only the first tier of statutory tax sharing payment in each of the component sub-areas. Amendment 8 was adopted after January 1, 1994. As a result, tax revenues derived from this component sub-area are subject to statutory tax sharing payments. All taxing entities, including the City of Azusa, are entitled to receive their proportionate share of 25 percent of tax increment revenue net of housing set-aside. Beginning in the eleventh fiscal year following after the initial year that the Agency receives tax increment revenue within Amendment 8; and using the assessed values of year ten as a base year value to determine incremental value and revenue, taxing entities are entitled to receive 21 percent of this second tier of revenue net of housing set-aside. Beginning in the thirty-first fiscal year following after the initial year that the Agency receives tax increment revenue within Amendment 8; and using the assessed values of the thirtieth year as a base year value to determine incremental value and revenue, taxing entities are entitled to receive 14 percent of this second tier of revenue net of housing set-aside. The City of Azusa as a taxing entity is C - 16

Redevelopment Agency of the City of Azusa Fiscal Consultant s Report June 26, 2007, Page 17 entitled to receive its proportionate share of the first tier of statutory tax sharing payment in each of the component sub-areas. The City may not receive any portion of the second and third tiers of tax sharing. C. Court Decisions Santa Ana Decision The State Court of Appeals upheld a Superior Court decision which held the Santa Ana School District had the right to receive payments from the Orange County Redevelopment Agency pursuant to a resolution adopted by the School District in 1999 under former Section 33676(a) of the Law (Santa Ana Unified School District v. Orange County Redevelopment Agency; App. 4 Dist. 2001 108 Cal. Rptr.2d 770, 90 Cal. App 4th 404, review denied). Former Section 33676(a)(2) provided that, unless a negotiated tax sharing agreement had been entered into, upon passage of a resolution prior to adoption of a redevelopment plan, affected taxing agencies and every school and community college district could elect to be allocated increases in the assessed value of taxable property in the project area based on inflation growth (the 2% Property Tax Increase). Former Section 33676(a)(2) was repealed as part of major revisions made to the Law pursuant to the Reform Act of 1993 (AB 1290). The changes to the Law contained in AB1290 were effective as of January 1, 1994. The Court of Appeals affirmed the lower court ruling that due to an amendment to former Section 33676(a) that was adopted in 1984 and became effective on January 1, 1985, school and community college districts were to automatically receive the 2% Property Tax Increase even without adopting the appropriate resolution prior to the adoption of a redevelopment plan. All component sub-areas were adopted either before Section 33676(a)(2) was adopted or after it was repealed. This decision does not, therefore, impact the Project Area. VIII. Development Activities From January 1, 2006 lien date for the 2006-07 tax roll through December 31, 2006, 89 properties within the Project Area transferred ownership. The sales prices on these transfers were $19.15 million greater than the enrolled values on these properties. As a result, in the projection of tax revenue, this increased value is reflected in the projected values for 2007-08. From January 1, 2007 lien date for the 2007-08 tax roll through June 1, 2007, 39 properties within the Project Area transferred ownership. The sales prices on these transfers were $7.3 million greater than the enrolled values on these properties. As a result, in the projection of tax revenue, this increased value as adjusted for inflationary increases is reflected in the projected values for 2008-09. IX. Trended Taxable Value Growth Growth in real property land and improvement values have been limited to an assumed rate of growth of real property taxable values of two percent annually as allowed under Article XIIIA of the state Constitution. A two percent growth rate has been assumed because it is the maximum inflationary growth rate permitted by law and this rate of growth has been achieved in all but five years since 1981. The years in which less than two percent growth was realized were 1983-84 (1.0%), 1995-96 (1.19%), 1996-97 (1.11%) and 1999-00 (1.85%) and 2004-05 (1.867%). If in future years the growth of taxable C - 17

Redevelopment Agency of the City of Azusa Fiscal Consultant s Report June 26, 2007, Page 18 value in the project area is less than two percent, the resultant Tax Increment Revenues would be reduced. HdL Coren & Cone make no representation that taxable values will actually grow at two percent. Future values will also be affected by changes of ownership and new construction not reflected in our projections. In addition, the values of property previously reduced in value due to assessment appeals based on reduced market values could increase more than two percent when real estate values increase more than two percent (see Section IV A above). Seismic activity and environmental conditions such as hazardous substances that are not anticipated in this report might also impact property taxes and Tax Increment Revenue. HdL Coren & Cone makes no representation that taxable values will actually grow at the rate projected. Anticipated revenues could be adjusted as a result of unidentified assessment appeal refunds, other Assessor corrections discussed previously, or unanticipated increases or decreases in property tax values. Estimated valuations from developments included in this analysis are based upon our understanding of the general practices of the Los Angeles County Assessor and Auditor-Controller s Office. General assessment practices are subject to policy changes, legislative changes, and the individual appraiser's judgment. While we believe our estimates to be reasonable, taxable values resulting from actual appraisals may vary from the amounts assumed in the projections. FCR 2007 ds 2 C - 18

(2) Real property consists of land and improvements. Increased for inflation at 2% annually and for transfers of ownership (See Table 4). (3) Personal property is held constant at 2006-07 level. (4) Projected Gross Tax Increment is based upon incremental taxable values factored against an assumed Project tax rate and adjusted for indebtedness. approved by voters after 1989. The assumed future tax rates decline to $1.020 per $100 of taxable value over 2 years and remain at that rate thereafter. (5) L.A. County Administration fee is actual for 2006-07 and estimated at 1.25% of Gross Revenue thereafter. (6) Housing Set Aside calculated at 20% of Gross Revenue. (7) L.A. County Taxing Entities (includes County General Fund and Flood Control Distict) entered into a tax sharing agreement with the Agency that included the Central Business District Project Area and all amendment areas except Amendment 8. Payments are made only from Amendment Areas 2, 3 and 4. The existence of this agreement requires that the County Taxing Entities receive no share of the statutory payments. (8) The Agency has eliminated the Plan's time limit for incurrance of new indebtedness. The Agency is required to make statutory tax sharing payments as outlined in Section 33607.7 of the Law. Beginning in 2004-05 and using the assessed values for 2003-04 as an adjusted base year Taxing Entities that do not have existing tax sharing agreements receive their shares of 25% of tax increment revenue net of Housing Set-Aside. Beginning in the 11th year after the initiation of statutory tax sharing payments, eligible Taxing Entities receive 21% of tax revenue on incremental value above the 10th year value net of housing set aside. A third tier of tax sharing is not initiated before the plan's effectiveness expires. These payments continue only until the termination date of the redevelopment plan.

(4) Projected Gross Tax Increment is based upon incremental taxable values factored against an assumed Project tax rate and adjusted for indebtedness. approved by voters after 1989.

County Taxing Entities (includes County General Fund and Flood Control Distict) entered into a tax sharing agreement with the Agency that included the Central Business District Project Area and all amendment areas except Amendment 8. Payments are made only from Amendment Areas 2, 3 and 4. The existence of this agreement requires that the County Taxing Entities receive no share of the statutory payments. (8) The Agency has eliminated the Plan's time limit for incurrance of new indebtedness. The Agency is required to make statutory tax sharing payments as outlined in Section 33607.7 of the Law. Beginning in 2004-05 and using the assessed values for 2003-04 as an adjusted base year Taxing Entities that do not have existing tax sharing agreements receive their shares of 25% of tax increment revenue net of Housing Set-Aside. Beginning in the 11th year after the initiation of statutory tax sharing payments, eligible Taxing Entities receive 21% of tax revenue on incremental value above the 10th year value net of housing set aside. A third tier of tax sharing is not initiated before the plan's effectiveness expires. These payments continue only until the termination date of the redevelopment plan. The City is considered a taxing entity and may elect to receive its share of the Tier 1 payments. Tax Allocation Bonds/Azusa 2007/TAB 2007 - Projection 2

County Taxing Entities (includes County General Fund and Flood Control Distict) entered into a tax sharing agreement with the Agency that included the Central Business District Project Area and all amendment areas except Amendment 8. Payments are made only from Amendment Areas 2, 3 and 4. The existence of this agreement requires that the County Taxing Entities receive no share of the statutory payments. (8) The Agency has eliminated the Plan's time limit for incurrance of new indebtedness. The Agency is required to make statutory tax sharing payments as outlined in Section 33607.7 of the Law. Beginning in 2004-05 and using the assessed values for 2003-04 as an adjusted base year Taxing Entities that do not have existing tax sharing agreements receive their shares of 25% of tax increment revenue net of Housing Set-Aside. Beginning in the 11th year after the initiation of statutory tax sharing payments, eligible Taxing Entities receive 21% of tax revenue on incremental value above the 10th year value net of housing set aside. A third tier of tax sharing is not initiated before the plan's effectiveness expires. These payments continue only until the termination date of the redevelopment plan. The City is considered a taxing entity and may elect to receive its share of the Tier 1 payments. Tax Allocation Bonds/Azusa 2007/TAB 2007 - Projection 2

(2) Real property consists of land and improvements. Increased for inflation at 2% annually and for transfers of ownership (See Table 4). (3) Personal property is held constant at 2006-07 level. (4) Projected Gross Tax Increment is based upon incremental taxable values factored against an assumed Project tax rate and adjusted for indebtedness approved by voters after 1989. The assumed future tax rates decline to $1.020 per $100 of taxable value over 2 years. (5) L.A. County Administration fee is actual for 2006-07 and estimated at 1.24% of Gross Revenue thereafter. (6) Housing Set Aside calculated at 20% of Gross Revenue. (7) Azusa Unified School District receives 5.11% of general levy tax increment net of housing set aside. The Agency was permitted to defer tax sharing payments through 2000-01 with interest accruing from 1996-97 through 2000-01. All deferred amounts have been repaid and there are no outstanding amounts owed to the District. (8) County Taxing Entities (County General Fund and Flood Control District) receive 52% of general levy tax increment net of housing set aside. (9) The Agency has eliminated the Plan's time limit for incurrance of new indebtedness. The Agency is required to make statutory tax sharing payments as outlined in Section 33607.7 of the Law. Beginning in 2005-06 and using the assessed values for 2004-05 as an adjusted base year Taxing Entities that do not have existing tax sharing agreements receive their shares of 25% of tax increment revenue net of Housing Set-Aside. Beginning in the 11th year after the initiation of statutory tax sharing payments, eligible Taxing Entities receive 21% of tax revenue on incremental value above the 10th year value net of housing set aside. A third tier of tax sharing is not initiated before the plan's effectiveness expires. These payments continue only until the termination date of the redevelopment plan. The City is considered a taxing entity and may elect to receive its share of the Tier 1 payments. Tax Allocation Bonds/Azusa 2007/TAB 2007 - Projection 2

(2) Real property consists of land and improvements. Increased for inflation at 2% annually and for transfers of ownership (See Table 4). Values for 2007-08 are reduced by $5,034,387 for expected losses due to pending assessment appeals. (3) Personal property is held constant at 2006-07 level. (4) Projected Gross Tax Increment is based upon incremental taxable values factored against an assumed Project tax rate and adjusted for indebtedness approved by voters after 1989. The assumed future tax rates decline to $1.020 per $100 of taxable value over 2 years. (5) L.A. County Administration fee is actual for 2006-07 and estimated at 1.25% of Gross Revenue thereafter. (6) Housing Set Aside calculated at 20% of Gross Revenue. (7) L.A. County Tax Entities (County General Fund and Flood Control District) receive 52% of general levy tax increment net of housing set aside within the portion of the Project Area not designated as Parcel A. Within the area designated as Parcel A, the County Taxing Entities receive 15% of general levy tax increment net of housing set aside. (8) The Agency has eliminated the Plan's time limit for incurrance of new indebtedness. The Agency is required to make statutory tax sharing payments as outlined in Section 33607.7 of the Law. Beginning in 2004-05 and using the assessed values for 2003-04 as an adjusted base year Taxing Entities that do not have existing tax sharing agreements receive their shares of 25% of tax increment revenue net of Housing Set-Aside. Beginning in the 11th year after the initiation of statutory tax sharing payments, eligible Taxing Entities receive 21% of tax revenue on incremental value above the 10th year value net of housing set aside. A third tier of tax sharing is not initiated before the plan's effectiveness expires. These payments continue only until the termination date of the redevelopment plan.

APPENDIX D-2 SERIES B BONDS FORM OF BOND COUNSEL OPINION July 31, 2007 Redevelopment Agency of the City of Azusa 213 East Foothill Boulevard Azusa, California, 91702 Re: $4,790,000 Redevelopment Agency of the City of Azusa Amended and Restated Central Business District and West End Redevelopment Project Area Tax Allocation Bonds (Second Subordinate Lien), 2007 Series B Members of the Redevelopment Agency: We have acted as bond counsel in connection with the issuance by the Redevelopment Agency of the City of Azusa (the Agency ) of its $4,790,000 aggregate principal amount Redevelopment Agency of the City of Azusa Amended and Restated Merged Central Business District and West End Redevelopment Projects Tax Allocation Bonds, 2007 Series B (the Series B Bonds ). The Series B Bonds are issued pursuant to the provisions of (i) the Community Redevelopment Law, being Part 1 (commencing with Section 33000) of Division 24 of the Health and Safety Code of the State of California (the Law ), (ii) Resolution No. 07-R20 adopted by the Agency on July 2, 2007 (the Resolution ) and (iii) a Trust Indenture (the Series B Indenture ) dated July 1, 2007, by and between the Agency and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association. We have examined the Law, the Resolution, the Series B Indenture and such certified proceedings and other papers as we deem necessary to render this opinion. As to questions of fact material to our opinion, we have relied upon representations of the Agency contained in the Series B Indenture and in the certified proceedings and other certifications of public officials furnished to us, without undertaking to verify such facts by independent investigation. Based upon our examination, we are of the opinion, as of the date hereof, that: 1. The Agency is a duly organized and validly existing public body, corporate and politic. 2. The Series B Bonds constitute valid, legal and binding special obligations of the Agency enforceable in accordance with their terms. 3. The Series B Indenture has been duly approved by the Agency and constitutes valid, legal and binding obligations of the Agency enforceable in accordance with its terms. The Series B Indenture creates a valid lien on funds pledged by the Series B Indenture for the security of the Series B Bonds, comprised of Second Subordinate Tax Revenues (as defined in the Series B Indenture) and certain amounts in the funds and accounts for the Series B Bonds. 4. The Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code ), sets forth certain investment, rebate and related requirements which must be met subsequent to the issuance and delivery of D-2-1

the Series B Bonds for the interest on the Series B Bonds to be and remain excluded from gross income for purposes of federal income taxation. Noncompliance with such requirements could cause the interest on the Series B Bonds to be subject to federal income taxation retroactive to the date of issue of the Series B Bonds. Pursuant to the Series B Indenture, the Agency has covenanted to comply with the requirements of the Code. We are of the opinion that, assuming compliance with the aforementioned covenant, the interest on the Series B Bonds is excluded from gross income for purposes of federal income taxation under existing statutes, regulations, rulings and court decisions. We are further of the opinion that interest on the Series B Bonds is not a specific preference item for purposes of the alternative minimum tax provisions of the Code. However, interest on the Series B Bonds received by corporations will be included in corporate adjusted current earnings, a portion of which may increase the alternative minimum taxable income of such corporations. Although the interest on the Series B Bonds is excluded from gross income for federal tax purposes, the accrual or receipt of interest on the Series B Bonds may otherwise affect the federal income tax liability of the recipient. The extent of these other tax consequences will depend on the recipient s particular tax status or other items of income or deduction. We express no opinion regarding any such consequences. 5. Interest on the Series B Bonds is exempt from personal income taxation imposed by the State of California. The opinions expressed herein may be affected by actions which may be taken (or not taken) or events which may occur (or not occur) after the date hereof. We have not undertaken to determine, or to inform any person, whether any such actions or events are taken or occur or are not taken or do not occur. The rights of the owners of the Series B Bonds and the enforceability of the Series B Bonds and the Series B Indenture may be subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium and other similar laws affecting creditors rights heretofore or hereafter enacted and their enforcement may be subject to the exercise of judicial discretion in accordance with general principles of equity. Respectfully submitted, D-2-2

Such payment obligation shall be payable on demand and on a parity with, and from the same sources and secured by the same security as, regularly scheduled principal and interest payments in respect of the Series A Bonds. For purposes of the foregoing, Insurer Payment Rate shall mean the lesser of (a) the maximum rate permissible under applicable usury or similar laws limiting interest rates and (b) the greater of (i) the then applicable highest rate of interest on the Series A Bonds and (ii) the per annum rate of interest, publicly announced from time to time by JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A.

E-1-14

The Agency will punctually pay or cause to be paid the principal and interest to become due in respect of all the Series A Bonds in strict conformity with the terms of the Series A Bonds and of the Series A Indenture, and it will faithfully observe and perform all of the conditions, covenants and requirements of the Series A Indenture and all Supplemental Indentures and of the Series A Bonds. Nothing in the Series A Indenture contained shall prevent the Agency from making advances of its own moneys howsoever derived to any of the uses or purposes permitted by law. Extension of Time for Payment. In order to prevent any accumulation of claims for interest after maturity, the Agency will not, directly or indirectly, extend or consent to the extension of the time for the payment of any claim for interest on any of the Series A Bonds and will not, directly or indirectly, approve any such arrangement by purchasing or funding said claims for interest or in any other manner. In case any such claim for interest shall be extended or funded whether or not with the consent of the Agency, such claim for interest so extended or funded shall not be entitled, in case of default under the Series A Indenture, except subject to the prior payment in full of the principal of all of the Series A Bonds then Outstanding and of all claims for interest which shall not have been so extended or funded. Against Encumbrances. Except for Parity Bonds issued in accordance with Sections 3.03 and 3.04 of the Series A Indenture, the Agency covenants and agrees that it will not issue any other obligations payable, as to either principal or interest, from the Subordinate Tax Revenues which have, or purport to have, any lien upon the Subordinate Tax Revenues superior to or on a parity with the lien of the Series A Bonds including bonds on a parity with the Senior Lien Bonds; provided, however, that nothing in the Series A Indenture shall prevent the Agency from issuing and selling pursuant to law refunding bonds or other refunding obligations payable from and having a first lien on a parity basis with all Outstanding Parity Bonds upon the Subordinate Tax Revenues if such refunding bonds or other refunding obligations are issued and are sufficient for the purpose of refunding all or a portion of the Series A Bonds then Outstanding.

The Agency will pay and discharge, or cause to be paid and discharged, all taxes, service charges, assessments and other governmental charges which may hereafter be lawfully imposed upon the Agency or the properties then owned by the Agency in the Project Area, or upon the revenues therefrom, when the same shall become due. Nothing in the Series A Indenture contained shall require the Agency to make any such payment so long as the Agency in good faith shall contest the validity of said taxes, assessments or charges. The Agency will duly observe and conform with all valid requirements of any governmental authority relative to the Project or any part thereof. Compliance with Law, Completion of Project. The Agency will comply with all applicable provisions of the Law in completing the Project including, without limitation, duly noticing and holding any public hearing required by either Section 33445 or 33679 of the Law prior to application of proceeds of the Series A Bonds to any portion of the Project subject to either Section 33445 or 33679. In addition, the Agency will comply timely with the public hearing and further requirements of Section 33334.6. The Agency will commence, and will continue to completion, with all practicable dispatch, the Project and the Project will be accomplished and completed in a sound and economical manner and in conformity with the Redevelopment Plan and the Law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Agency may, in accordance with applicable provisions of the Law, amend the limits of the Redevelopment Plan from time to time in order to extend the term or amount of any of such limits, so long as any such amendment will not reduce the amount of Subordinate Tax Revenues to be received by the Agency, as certified in a certificate of a Redevelopment Consultant. E-1-15

Taxation of Leased Property. Whenever any property in the Redevelopment Project has been redeveloped and thereafter is leased by the Agency to any person or persons (other than a public agency) or whenever the Agency leases real property in the Redevelopment Project to any person or persons (other than a public agency) for redevelopment, the property shall be assessed and taxed in the same manner as privately owned property, as required by Section 33673 of the Law. Disposition of Property. The Agency will not participate in the disposition of any land or real property in the Project Area to anyone which will result in such property becoming exempt from taxation because of public ownership or use or otherwise (except property dedicated for public right-of-way and except property planned for public ownership or use by the Redevelopment Plan in effect on the date of the Series A Indenture) if the effect of such disposition would be to cause the amount of Subordinate Tax Revenues for the then current or any future Fiscal Year based on assessed valuation of property in the Project Area as evidenced in a written document from the County, to fall below 125% of Annual Debt Service on the Senior Lien Bonds, the Series A Bonds and any Parity Bonds then outstanding.

Use of Proceeds. The Agency covenants and agrees that the proceeds of the sale of the Series A Bonds will be deposited and used as provided in the Series A Indenture and the Law. Further Assurances. The Agency will adopt, make, execute and deliver any and all such further resolutions, instruments and assurances as may be reasonably necessary or proper to carry out the intention or to facilitate the performance of the Series A Indenture and for the better assuring and confirming unto the Owners of the Series A Bonds of the rights and benefits provided in the Series A Indenture. Private Activity Bond Limitation. The Agency shall assure that the proceeds of the Series A Bonds, issued as tax-exempt bonds under the Series A Indenture, are not so used as to cause the Series A Bonds, issued as tax-exempt bonds the Series A Indenture, to satisfy the private business tests of Section 141(b) of the Code or the private loan financing test of Section 141(c) of the Code. Federal Guarantee Prohibition. The Agency shall not take any action or permit or suffer any action to be taken if the result of the same would be to cause any of the Series A Bonds, issued as tax-exempt bonds under the Series A Indenture, to be federally guaranteed within the meaning of Section 149(b) of the Code. Rebate Requirement. The Agency shall take any and all actions necessary to assure compliance with Section 148(f) of the Code, relating to the rebate of excess investment earnings, if any, to the federal government, to the extent that such section is applicable to the Series A Bonds, issued as tax-exempt bonds under the Series A Indenture. No Arbitrage. The Agency shall not take, or permit or suffer to be taken by the Trustee or otherwise, any action with respect to the proceeds of the Series A Bonds, issued as tax-exempt bonds under the Series A Indenture, which, if such action had been reasonably expected to have been taken, or had been deliberately and intentionally taken, on the date of issuance of the Series A Bonds, issued as tax-exempt bonds under the Series A Indenture, would have caused the Series A Bonds, issued as tax-exempt bonds under the Series A Indenture, to be arbitrage bonds within the meaning of Section 148 of the Code. Maintenance of Tax-Exemption. The Agency shall take all actions necessary to assure the exclusion of interest on the Series A Bonds, issued as tax-exempt bonds under the Series A Indenture, from the gross E-1-16

income of the Owners of the Series A Bonds, issued as tax-exempt bonds under the Series A Indenture, to the same extent as such interest is permitted to be excluded from gross income under the Code as in effect on the date of issuance of the Series A Bonds, issued as tax-exempt bonds under the Series A Indenture. Limit on Indebtedness. The Agency covenants with the Owners of all of the Series A Bonds at any time Outstanding that it will not enter into any obligation or make any expenditure payable from taxes allocated to the Agency under the Law the payments of which, together with payments theretofore made or to be made with respect to other obligations (including, but not limited to, the Series A Bonds) previously entered into by the Agency, would exceed the then-effective limit on the amount of taxes which can be allocated to the Agency pursuant to Section 33333.2(1) of the Law and the Redevelopment Plan. Annual Accounting of Tax Increment Revenues. The Agency will cause to be prepared and filed with the Trustee and Insurer annually, within 180 days after the close of each Fiscal Year so long as any of the Series A Bonds are Outstanding, complete audited financial statements with respect to such Fiscal Year showing the Tax Revenues and Subordinate Tax Revenues, all disbursements from the Special Fund and the financial condition of the Redevelopment Project, including the balances in all funds and accounts relating to the Redevelopment Project, as of the end of such Fiscal Year, and will prepare or cause to be prepared and filed with the Trustee and Insurer a pro forma statement demonstrating the future availability of sufficient tax increment revenues to pay timely within the existing limitation on the amount of Tax Revenues allocable and payable to the Agency under the Redevelopment Plan (the Tax Increment Limitation ) (i) the Senior Lien Bonds, the Series A Bonds, all Parity Bonds and subordinate debt, and (ii) the amount payable in the then current Fiscal Year included within the Tax Increment Limitation which are required by section 33334.2 of the Redevelopment Law to be deposited in the Agency's Low and Moderate Income Housing Fund (the Set-Aside Requirement ) which statements and pro forma statement shall be accompanied by a written certificate of the Agency stating that the Agency is in compliance with its obligations under the Series A Indenture. The Trustee shall have no duty or responsibility to review such financial statements. The pro forma statement shall be prepared on or before August 1 of each year or as soon thereafter as practicable, commencing August 1, 2008, and shall set forth: (1) The difference between the Tax Increment Limitation less the total amount of tax increment revenues theretofore allocated to the Agency from and after the Fiscal Year in which a limitation on the allocation of tax increment revenues was established (the Remaining Limitation Amount ); and (2) The principal and interest remaining to be paid on the Senior Lien Bonds, the Series A Bonds, the Parity Bonds and on the subordinate debt, plus the Set-Aside requirement (collectively, the Total Debt Service ). To the extent the Remaining Limitation Amount is equal to 110% or less than the Total Debt Service, the pro forma statement shall set forth the principal amount of the Senior Lien Bonds, the Series A Bonds, the Parity Bonds or subordinate debt (to the nearest integral multiple of $5,000), as applicable that must be retired in order for the Remaining Limitation Amount to be at least equal to 110% of the Total Debt Service (the Prepayment Amount ). In making this calculation, the Agency shall assume that it will prepay debt in the following order or priority (the Prepayment Order ): (a) it shall prepay the Senior Lien Bonds, the Series A Bonds and all Outstanding Parity Bonds by allocating payment among the principal of the Senior Lien Bonds, the Series A Bonds and applicable principal payments with respect to Parity Bonds as the Agency shall designate and (b) to the extent there are no longer any Series A Bonds or Parity Bonds outstanding, prepay the subordinate debt pro rata by maturity and by lot within a maturity, in a manner which results in the Senior Lien Bonds, Parity Bonds and subordinate debt to be paid from Tax Revenues and Subordinate Tax Revenues in a timely manner. The Agency shall notify the trustee for the Senior Lien Bonds of the Prepayment Amount, if any, applicable to the Senior Lien Bonds, E-1-17

the Series A Bonds and all Parity Bonds as soon as possible after completion of the pro forma statement and shall pay any Prepayment Amount from Tax Revenues and Subordinate Tax Revenues after (i) having on deposit in the Special Fund an amount equal to the principal and interest due and payable in the next succeeding Bond Year on the Senior Lien Bonds, the Series A Bonds and all Parity Bonds, and (ii) having on deposit an amount sufficient to pay principal and interest in the next succeeding Bond Year on the subordinate debt. At the time the Remaining Limitation Amount is determined to be 110% or less than the Total Debt Service, the Agency shall transfer any Prepayment Amount to the Trustee for deposit in the Redemption Account for the Series A Bonds, the Senior Lien Bonds, or the Redemption Account or any other payment with respect to Parity Bonds, as applicable, and use such moneys to redeem as applicable Senior Lien Bonds, Bonds and redeem or otherwise prepay Parity Bonds, as applicable, on the first applicable optional redemption date in the Prepayment Order and at the applicable redemption price, all as further provided in the Series A Indenture. Notwithstanding the above, if prior to any such optional redemption, a subsequent annual pro forma statement indicates that further Tax Revenues and Subordinate Tax Revenues will be 110% or more of the Total Debt Service in each year such debt service is payable, the Agency may authorize the Trustee to release such Tax Revenues and Subordinate Tax Revenues from the Redemption Account for delivery to the Agency. Amounts deposited in the Redemption Account for such purposes shall be invested solely in Defeasance Obligations. The Agency shall furnish a copy of the above-referenced written certificates, statements and pro forma statement to any Owner upon reasonable request at the expense of such Owner. Continuing Disclosure. The Agency hereby covenants and agrees that it will comply with and carry out all of the provisions of the Continuing Disclosure Agreement. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Series A Indenture, failure of the Agency to comply with the Continuing Disclosure Agreement shall not be considered an Event of Default; however, the Trustee shall, at the written request of any participating underwriter or the Owners of at least 25% aggregate principal amount of Outstanding Bonds, but only to the extent the Trustee has been indemnified from and against any loss, cost, expense, claim or liability, including, without limitation, fees and expenses of attorneys and additional fees and expenses of the Trustee or any Bondowner may take such actions as may be necessary and appropriate, including seeking mandamus or specific performance by court order, to cause the Agency to comply with its obligations under the Series A Indenture. Parity Bonds Issuance of Parity Bonds. The Series A Bonds and the Series B Bonds are issued on a subordinate basis to the Senior Lien Bonds. The Agency may not issue additional obligations, including bonds on a parity with the Senior Lien Bonds, which are senior to the Series A Bonds. In addition to the Series A Bonds, the Agency may, by a Supplemental Indenture, issue Parity Bonds payable from Tax Revenues as and to the extent provided in the Series A Indenture and secured by the pledge made under the Series A Indenture equally and ratably with the Series A Bonds previously issued. The Agency may issue, and the Trustee may authenticate and deliver to the purchasers thereof, Parity Bonds, in such principal amount as shall be determined by the Agency, but only upon compliance by the Agency with the provisions of Section 3.03 and Section 3.04 of the Series A Indenture and any additional requirements set forth in said Supplemental Indenture and subject to the following specific conditions, which are hereby made conditions precedent to the issuance of any such Parity Bonds: (a) No Event of Default shall have occurred and then be continuing; (b) A Tax Revenue Certificate shall be delivered to the Trustee which shows that the amount of Tax Revenues, based on assessed valuation of property in the Project Area as evidenced in the written records of the County, together with an allowance for estimated additional annual Tax Revenues to be received by the Agency within the Fiscal Year following the date such computation was made due to increase in taxable valuation of property in the Project Area resulting from the transfer of ownership or any other interest in real property but not yet entered on the tax roll, shall be at least equal to 125% of the sum of Annual Debt Service on the Senior Lien Bonds and the Series A Bonds (including such Parity E-1-18

Debt) for the then current Fiscal Year and all subsequent Fiscal Years through the final maturity of the Series A Bonds and any Parity Debt. The Tax Revenue Certificate shall also show that the amount of Subordinate Tax Revenues, including debt service on the Senior Lien Bonds, based on assessed valuation of property in the Project Area as evidenced in the written records of the County, and excluding the taxpayer with the highest assessed value in the Project Area, shall be at least equal to 100% of the sum of Annual Debt Service on the Senior Lien Bonds and the Series A Bonds (including such Parity Debt). For purposes of this calculation, Tax Revenues will be calculated using a 1% tax rate and shall further be reduced by (i) the amount of subventions paid by the State of California or any other amount appropriated by the State for the Agency; (ii) unless the Teeter Plan is currently in effect and the County has made no announcement that the Teeter Plan would terminate, the amount derived by applying the average percentage by which the actual tax collections in the Project Area are less than the amount of the tax levy in the Project Area for the immediately preceding five Fiscal Years; and (iii) the maximum percentage of Subordinate Tax Revenues payable to a taxing entity pursuant to all non-subordinated Pass Through Agreements, regardless of whether such maximum percentage is in effect for that year. For example, if a Pass Through Agreement includes a step up provision or takes effect upon the occurrence of some event, that pass through shall be calculated at the maximum rate pursuant to the step up or as if the event had already taken place; (c) The Agency shall certify to the Trustee that the aggregate amount of the principal of and interest on all Outstanding Bonds (including the Senior Lien Bonds) coming due and payable following the issuance of such Parity Bonds shall not exceed the maximum amount of Tax Revenues permitted under the Redevelopment Plan to be allocated and paid to the Agency following the issuance of such Parity Bonds, and shall not exceed any limitation on the time during which such tax increment revenues may be received; (d) The Supplemental Indenture authorizing the issuance of Parity Bonds shall provide that (i) interest on such Parity Bonds shall be calculated at a fixed interest rate if the Agency determines in such Supplemental Indenture that it is to be paid on a current basis, shall be payable on February 1 and August 1 in each year of the term of such Parity Bonds except the first twelve-month period during which interest may be payable on any February 1 or August 1, and (ii) the principal of such Parity Bonds shall be payable on August 1 in any year, as determined by the Agency, in which principal is payable; (e) Money shall be deposited in the Reserve Account or in a subaccount therein (or a reserve fund letter of credit, bank insurance policy or other comparable credit facility provided) in an amount equal to the Reserve Requirement for all outstanding Bonds, including such Parity Bonds; and (f) The Agency shall deliver to the Trustee a certificate of the Agency certifying that the conditions precedent to the issuance of such Parity Bonds set forth in the Series A Indenture have been satisfied and that the deposit into the Reserve Account as set forth above has been made. For the purposes of the calculation of the coverage requirements set forth in subsection (b) of Section 3.03 of the Series A Indenture with respect to the issuance of Parity Bonds, Outstanding Bonds and Parity Bonds shall not include a principal amount of such Parity Bonds, determined on such basis among maturities as the Agency may determine, equal to the proceeds of such Parity Bonds to be deposited in an escrow fund established for such Parity Bonds (the Escrowed Bonds ), provided that the Supplemental Indenture authorizing the issuance of such Parity Bonds shall provide that: (1) Such proceeds shall be invested in Permitted Investments, and an amount equal to the difference between the projected interest earnings on such proceeds and the interest due on the Escrowed Bonds shall be deposited in the Interest Account so as to pay interest on the Escrowed Bonds as it becomes due and payable; (2) Moneys may be transferred from the escrow fund established for the Escrowed Bonds only if a Tax Revenue Certificate shall be delivered to the Trustee which shows that the amount of Tax Revenues, which for the purpose of this calculation shall include debt service on E-1-19

the Senior Lien Bonds, based on assessed valuation of property in the Project Area as evidenced in the written records of the County shall be at least equal to 125% of the sum of Annual Debt Service on the Series A Bonds (including such Parity Debt) and annual debt service on the Senior Lien Bonds for the then current Fiscal Year and all subsequent Fiscal Years through the final maturity of the Series A Bonds and any Parity Debt, and 100% of annual debt service on the Senior Lien Bonds and the Series A Bonds excluding the taxpayer in the Project Area with the highest assessed valuation. For purposes of this calculation, Tax Revenues will be calculated using a 1% tax rate and shall further be reduced by (i) the amount of subventions paid by the State of California or any other amount appropriated by the State for the Agency; (ii) unless the Teeter Plan is currently in effect and the County has made no announcement that the Teeter Plan would terminate, the amount derived by applying the average percentage by which the actual tax collections in the Project Area are less than the amount of the tax levy in the Project Area for the immediately preceding five Fiscal Years; and (iii) the maximum percentage of Tax Revenues payable to a taxing entity pursuant to all non-subordinated Pass Through Agreements, regardless of whether such maximum percentage is in effect for that year. For example, if a Pass Through Agreement includes a step up provision or takes effect upon the occurrence of some event, that pass through shall be calculated at the maximum rate pursuant to the step up or as if the event had already taken place; (3) Such Parity Bonds shall be redeemed from moneys remaining on deposit in the escrow fund established for the Escrowed Bonds at the expiration of a specified escrow period in such manner as may be determined by the Agency in the Supplemental Indenture; and (4) The Insurer shall be provided with notice of the issuance of such Escrow Bonds and a copy of the related Supplemental Indenture. The Agency shall not issue any indebtedness bearing interest at variable rates. Any computations establishing that debt service coverage is sufficient to authorize to support the issuance of Parity Debt or that requisite debt service savings are available to support the issuance of refunding bonds shall, in all cases, be evidenced by a certificate of an Independent Certified Public Accountant or an Independent Financial Consultant. Proceedings for Issuance of Parity Bonds. Whenever the Agency shall determine to issue Parity Bonds pursuant to Section 3.03 of the Series A Indenture, the Agency shall authorize the execution of a Supplemental Indenture specifying the principal amount and prescribing the forms of such Parity Bonds and providing the terms, conditions, distinctive designation, denominations, date, maturity date or dates, interest rate or rates (or the manner of determining same), redemption provisions and place or places of payment of principal or of premium (if any) and interest on such Parity Bonds, and any other provisions respecting the Parity Bonds not inconsistent with the terms of the Series A Indenture. Before such Parity Bonds shall be issued and delivered, the Agency shall file the following documents with the Trustee: (a) An executed copy of the Supplemental Indenture authorizing such Bonds. (b) A Written Certificate of the Agency stating that, to the knowledge of the Agency, no Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing. (c) An opinion of Bond Counsel that the execution of the Supplemental Indenture has been duly authorized by the Agency in accordance with the Series A Indenture; that the Parity Bonds, when duly executed by the Agency and authenticated and delivered by the Trustee, will be legally valid and binding limited obligations of the Agency; and that the issuance of such Parity Bonds will not in and of itself impair the exclusion for federal income tax purposes of interest on any Outstanding Bonds. E-1-20

(d) A written certificate of the Agency certifying that the conditions precedent to the issuance of such Parity Bonds set forth in Section 3.03 of the Series A Indenture have been satisfied. Subordinate Debt. Nothing in the Series A Indenture shall be intended or construed in any way to prohibit or impose any limitations on the issuance by the Agency of bonds, notes, or other obligations or evidences of indebtedness payable from Subordinate Tax Revenues on a subordinate basis to the pledge of Subordinate Tax Revenues to the repayment of the Series A Bonds and any Parity Bonds ( Subordinate Debt ), provided that following an Event of Default under the Series A Indenture, no Subordinate Debt shall be paid prior to the Series A Bonds or any other Parity Debt in any fiscal year of the Agency. Duties and Liabilities of Trustee Duties, Immunities and Liabilities of Trustee. (a) The Trustee shall, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, and after the curing or waiver of all Events of Default which may have occurred, perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in the Series A Indenture. The Trustee shall only be obligated to perform such duties as are expressly set forth in the Series A Indenture, and no duties or obligations not expressly set forth in the Series A Indenture shall be implied. The Trustee shall, during the existence of any Event of Default (which has not been cured or waived), exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by the Series A Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his own affairs. (b) The Agency may remove the Trustee, at any time, unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and then be continuing, and shall remove the Trustee (i) if at any time requested to do so by an instrument or concurrent instruments in writing signed by the Owners of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Series A Bonds then Outstanding (or their attorneys duly authorized in writing), (ii) if at any time requested to do so by the Insurer, or (iii) if at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with subsection (e) of Section 7.01 of the Series A Indenture, or shall become incapable of acting, or shall be adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent, or a receiver of the Trustee or its property shall be appointed, or any public officer shall take control or charge of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation. In each case such removal shall be accomplished by the giving of written notice of such removal by the Agency to the Trustee and the Insurer, whereupon in the case of the Trustee, the Agency shall appoint a successor Trustee by an instrument in writing. (c) The Trustee may at any time resign by giving written notice of such resignation to the Agency and the Insurer and by giving the Bondowners notice of such resignation by mail at their respective addresses shown on the Registration Books. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Agency shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee by an instrument in writing. The Trustee shall not be relieved of its duties until such successor Trustee has accepted such appointment. (d) Any removal or resignation of the Trustee and appointment of a successor Trustee shall become effective upon acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee and approval by the Insurer. If no successor Trustee shall have been appointed and have accepted appointment within thirty (30) days of giving notice of removal or notice of resignation as aforesaid, the resigning Trustee or any Bondowner (on behalf of himself and all other Bondowners), at the expense of the Agency, may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee, and such court may thereupon, after such notice (if any) as it may deem proper, appoint such successor Trustee. Any successor Trustee appointed under the Series A Indenture shall signify its acceptance of such appointment by executing and delivering to the Agency and to its predecessor Trustee a written acceptance thereof, and thereupon and upon receipt by the predecessor Trustee of all fees and expenses due and payable to it, such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the moneys, estates, E-1-21

properties, rights, powers, trusts, duties and obligations of such predecessor Trustee, with like effect as if originally named Trustee in the Series A Indenture; but, nevertheless at the Written Request of the Agency or the request of the successor Trustee, such predecessor Trustee shall execute and deliver any and all instruments of conveyance or further assurance and do such other things as may reasonably be required for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor Trustee all the right, title and interest of such predecessor Trustee in and to any property held by it under the Series A Indenture and shall pay over, transfer, assign and deliver to the successor Trustee any money or other property subject to the trusts and conditions set forth in the Series A Indenture. Upon request of the successor Trustee, the Agency shall execute and deliver any and all instruments as may be reasonably required for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor Trustee all such moneys, estates, properties, rights, powers, trusts, duties and obligations. Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor Trustee as provided in this subsection (d), the Agency shall mail a notice of the succession of such Trustee to the trusts under the Series A Indenture to each rating agency which then has a current rating on the Series A Bonds, if any, and to the Bondowners at their respective addresses shown on the Registration Books. If the Agency fails to mail such notice within fifteen (15) days after acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee, the successor Trustee shall cause such notice to be mailed at the expense of the Agency. (e) Any Trustee appointed under the provisions of Section 7.01 of the Series A Indenture in succession to the Trustee shall be a corporation or other entity organized and doing business under the laws of any state, the District of Columbia or the United States of America, authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers, which shall have (or, in the case of a corporation included in a bank holding company system, the related bank holding company shall have) a combined capital and surplus of at least seventy-five million dollars ($75,000,000), and subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authority. If such corporation or other entity publishes a report of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of any supervising or examining authority above referred to, then for the purpose of this subsection (e) the combined capital and surplus of such corporation or other entity shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. In case at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this subsection (e), the Trustee shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in Subsection (d) above. (f) The Trustee shall not take the Policy into account in determining whether the rights of Bondowners are adversely affected by actions taken pursuant to the terms and provisions of the Series A Indenture, and the Insurer shall be included as a party in interest and as a party entitled to (i) notify the Trustee of the occurrence of an Event of Default and (ii) request the Trustee to intervene in judicial proceedings that affect the Series A Bonds or the security therefor. The Trustee shall be required to accept notice of default from the Insurer. Merger or Consolidation. Any bank or company into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which either of them may be consolidated or any bank or company resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which it shall be a party or any bank or company to which the Trustee may sell or transfer all or substantially all of its corporate trust business, provided such bank or company shall be eligible under subsection (e) of Section 7.01 of the Series A Indenture, shall be the successor to such Trustee without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act, anything in the Series A Indenture to the contrary notwithstanding. Liability of Trustee. (a) The recitals of facts in the Series A Indenture and in the Series A Bonds contained shall be taken as statements of the Agency, and the Trustee shall not assume responsibility for the correctness of the same, nor make any representations as to the validity or sufficiency of the Series A Indenture or of the Series A Bonds nor shall incur any responsibility in respect thereof, other than as expressly stated in the Series A Indenture. The Trustee shall, however, be responsible for its representations contained in its E-1-22

A Indenture, to take effect when and as provided in this section. A copy of such Supplemental Indenture, together with a request to Bondowners for their consent thereto, shall be mailed by the Agency to each registered Owner of Bonds Outstanding, but failure to mail copies of such Supplemental Indenture and request shall not affect the validity of the supplemental Indenture when assented to as in this section provided. Such Supplemental Indenture shall not become effective unless there shall be filed with the Trustee the written consents of the Owners of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Series A Bonds then Outstanding (exclusive of Bonds disqualified as provided in Section 8.04 of the Series A Indenture) and a notice shall have been mailed as hereinafter in this section provided.

Any such consent shall be binding upon the Owner of the Series A Bonds giving such consent and on any subsequent Owner (whether or not such subsequent Owner has notice thereof) unless such consent is revoked in writing by the Owner giving such consent or a subsequent Owner by filing such revocation with the Trustee prior to the date when the notice as provided for in the Series A Indenture has been mailed. Any revocation received by the Trustee after such notice has been mailed shall be of no force or effect. After the Owners of the required percentage of Bonds shall have filed their consents to the Supplemental Indenture, the Agency shall mail a notice to the Bondowners in the manner hereinbefore provided in this section for the mailing of the Supplemental Indenture, stating in substance that the Supplemental Indenture has been consented to by the Owners of the required percentage of Bonds and will be effective as provided in this section (but failure to mail copies of said notice shall not affect the validity of the Supplemental Indenture or consents thereto). Proof of the mailing of such notice shall be filed with the Trustee. A record consisting of the papers required by this section to be filed with the Trustee shall be proof of the matters therein stated until the contrary is proved. The Supplemental Indenture shall become effective upon the filing with the Trustee of the proof of mailing of such notice, and the Supplemental Indenture shall be deemed conclusively binding (except as otherwise hereinabove specifically provided in the Series A Indenture) upon the Agency and the Owners of all Bonds at the expiration of sixty (60) days after such filing, except in the event of a final decree of a court of competent jurisdiction setting aside such consent in a legal action or equitable proceeding for such purpose commenced within such sixty-day period. Consent of Insurer, Notice to Rating Agency.

The Insurer may charge the Agency a fee for any consent or amendment to the Indenture while the Policy is in place.

Events of Default and Remedies of Bondowners Events of Default and Acceleration of Maturities. The following events shall constitute Events of Default under the Series A 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; E-1-26

(b) if default shall be made by the Agency in the observance of any of the covenants, agreements or conditions on its part in the Series A Indenture or in the Series A 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 the receipt by the Agency of written notice from the Trustee or any Bondowner of the occurrence of such default; provided, however, that if in the reasonable opinion of the Agency the failure stated in such notice can be corrected, but not within such thirty (30)-day period and if corrective action is instituted by the Agency within such thirty (30)-day period the Agency, with the prior written consent of the Insurer may diligently pursue such corrective action until such failure is corrected, but in no event more than 90 days following the receipt by the Agency of such notice; or (c) if the Agency shall file a petition or answer seeking reorganization or arrangement under the federal bankruptcy laws or any other applicable law of the United States of America, or if a court of competent jurisdiction shall approve a petition, filed with or without the consent of the Agency, seeking reorganization under the federal bankruptcy laws or any other applicable law of the United States of America, or if, under the provisions of any other law for the relief or aid of debtors, any court of competent jurisdiction shall assume custody or control of the Agency or of the whole or any substantial part of its property. If an Event of Default has occurred under Section 9.01 of the Series A Indenture and is continuing, the Trustee shall give written notice thereof to the Insurer. If an Event of Default shall occur, then, and in each and every such case during the continuance of such Event of Default, the Trustee may, with the consent of the Insurer, and if requested in writing by the Owners of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Series A Bonds then Outstanding or if directed by the Insurer, the Trustee shall (a) declare the principal of the Series A 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, anything in the Series A Indenture or in the Series A Bonds to the contrary notwithstanding, and (d) subject to the provisions of Section 9.06 of the Series A Indenture, exercise any other remedies available to the Trustee and the Bondowners in law or at equity.

Such notice shall also state whether the principal of the Series A Bonds shall have been declared to be or have immediately become due and payable. With respect to any Event of Default described in clause (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 Owners of the Series A Bonds in the same manner as provided in the Series A Indenture for notices of redemption of the Series A Bonds. Upon declaration of an Event of Default, the Agency shall transfer the Special Fund and all moneys therein to the Trustee who shall hold such Special Fund for the benefit of the Bondholders until such Event of Default shall have been cured. For any default under subsection (c) hereof, any reorganization or liquidation plan with respect to the Agency must be acceptable to the Insurer. In the event of any reorganization or liquidation, the Insurer shall have the right to vote on behalf of all Owners who hold the Series A Bonds absent a default by the Insurer under the applicable Policy insuring the Series A Bonds. This provision, however, is subject to the condition that if, at any time after the principal of the Series A 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 Agency shall deposit with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay all principal on the Series A Bonds matured prior to such declaration and all matured installments of interest (if any) upon all the Series A Bonds, with interest on such overdue installments of principal and interest at the net effective rate then borne by the Outstanding Bonds, and the reasonable fees and expenses of the Trustee, and any and all other defaults known to the Trustee E-1-27

(other than in the payment of principal of and interest on the Series A 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 Series A Bonds then Outstanding, by written notice to the Agency and to the Trustee, may, on behalf of the Owners of all of the Series A 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. Subject to the provisions of the Series A Indenture, the Trustee agrees to enforce by mandamus, suit or other proceeding at law or in equity the covenants and agreements of the Agency. Application of Funds Upon Acceleration. All of the Subordinate Tax Revenues and all sums in the funds and accounts established and held by the Trustee under the Series A Indenture upon the date of the declaration of acceleration (other than the Rebate Account, if any) as provided in Section 9.01 of the Series A Indenture, and all sums thereafter received by the Trustee under the Series A Indenture, shall be applied by the Trustee in the following order 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 and thereafter of the Bondowners in declaring such Event of Default, including reasonable compensation to its or their agents, attorneys and counsel; and Second, to the payment of the whole amount then owing and unpaid upon the Series A 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 installments 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 Series A 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 installment of interest over any other installment of interest, or any Bond over any other Bond, ratably to the aggregate of such principal and interest.

The Second Subordinate Tax Revenues shall be allocated solely to the payment of the principal and interest, and redemption premium, if any, of the Series B Bonds and to the Reserve Account for the purposes set forth in Section 5.03 of the Series B Indenture; except that the Second Subordinate Tax Revenues may be apportioned in such amounts for such other purposes as are expressly permitted by Section 5.02 of the Series B Indenture. The pledge and E-2-4

allocation of Second Subordinate Tax Revenues is for the exclusive benefit of the Series B Bonds and shall be irrevocable until all of the Series B Bonds have been paid and retired or until moneys have been set aside irrevocably for that purpose. In consideration of the acceptance of the Series B Bonds by those who shall own them from time to time, the Series B Indenture shall be deemed to be and shall constitute a contract between the Agency and the Owners from time to time of the Series B Bonds and the covenants and agreements in the Series B Indenture set forth to be performed on behalf of the Agency shall be for the equal and proportionate security and protection of all Owners of the Series B Bonds without preference, priority or distinction as to security or otherwise of any of the Series B Bonds over any of the others by reason of the number or date thereof, of the time of sale, execution and delivery thereof, or otherwise for any cause whatsoever, except as expressly provided therein or in the Series B Indenture. Special Fund; Deposit of Second Subordinate Tax Revenues. The Agency shall establish and hold a special fund to be known as the Redevelopment Project Tax Allocation Bonds (Second Subordinate Lien) Special Fund (the Special Fund ). The Agency shall deposit all of the Second Subordinate Tax Revenues received in any Bond Year in the Special Fund promptly upon receipt thereof; provided, that the Agency shall not be obligated to deposit in the Special Fund in any Bond Year an amount of Second Subordinate Tax Revenues which, together with other available amounts in the Special Fund exceeds the amounts required to be transferred to the Trustee for deposit in the Interest Account, Principal Account and the Reserve Account in such Bond Year pursuant to Section 5.03 of the Series B Indenture. On or before the fifth day immediately preceding each Interest Payment Date, the Agency shall transfer from the Special Fund to the Trustee for deposit to the Bond Fund an amount equal to the principal and interest owing on the Series B Bonds on such Interest Payment Date and an amount, if any, necessary to increase the amount in the Reserve Account to the Reserve Requirement. Any Second Subordinate Tax Revenues received by the Agency during any Bond Year in excess of the amounts required to be transferred to the Trustee for deposit into the Interest Account, the Principal Account and the Reserve Account in such Bond Year pursuant to Section 5.03 of the Series B Indenture, shall be released from the pledge and lien under the Series B Indenture and may be used for any lawful purposes of the Agency. All Second Subordinate Tax Revenues and any other amounts at any time paid by the Agency and designated in writing for deposit in the Special Fund shall be held by the Agency solely for the uses and purposes set forth in Article V of the Indenture. So long as any of the Series B Bonds are Outstanding, the Agency shall not have any beneficial right or interest in the Second Subordinate Tax Revenues, except only as provided in the Series B Indenture, and such moneys shall be used and applied as in the Series B Indenture set forth. Bond Fund; Establishment and Maintenance of Accounts. There is hereby established a special fund to be known as the Redevelopment Project Tax Allocation Bonds (Second Subordinate Lien) Bond Fund (the Bond Fund ) which shall be held by the Trustee. The Trustee shall receive and deposit to the Bond Fund the amount specified in Section 3.01 of the Series B Indenture on the Closing Date and the amounts required to be deposited thereto pursuant to Section 5.02 of the Series B Indenture. Within the Bond Fund the Trustee shall establish an Interest Account, a Principal Account and a Reserve Account. All moneys in the Bond Fund shall be transferred and set aside by the Trustee in the following respective special accounts of the Bond Fund (each of which is hereby created to be held in trust by the Trustee) in the following order of priority: (a) Interest Account. At least one Business Day prior to each Interest Payment Date, the Trustee shall transfer from the Bond Fund and set aside in the Interest Account an amount which, when added to the amount contained in the Interest Account will be 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 on the next succeeding Interest Payment Date upon all of the Series B Bonds issued under the Series B Indenture and then Outstanding. The Trustee shall also deposit in the Interest Account any other E-2-5

moneys received by it from the Agency and designated in writing by the Agency for deposit in the Interest Account. All moneys in the Interest Account shall be used and withdrawn by the Trustee solely for the purpose of paying the interest on the Series B Bonds as it shall become due and payable (including accrued interest on any Bonds purchased or redeemed prior to maturity pursuant to the Series B Indenture). (b) Principal Account. At least one Business Day prior to each Principal Payment Date, the Trustee shall transfer from the Bond Fund and set aside in the Principal Account an amount which, when added to the amount contained in the Principal Account will be equal to the principal becoming due and payable on the Series B Bonds on such Principal Payment Date, whether by reason of scheduled maturity or mandatory sinking fund redemption pursuant to Section 4.01(b) of the Series B Indenture. No deposit need be made into the Principal Account if the amount contained therein is at least equal to the principal to become due on such Principal Payment Date, whether by reason of scheduled maturity or mandatory sinking fund redemption. The Trustee shall also deposit in the Principal Account any other moneys received by it from the Agency and designated in writing by the Agency for deposit in the Principal Account. All moneys in the Principal Account shall be used and withdrawn by the Trustee solely for the purpose of paying the principal on the Series B Bonds as it shall become due and payable, whether by reason of scheduled maturity or mandatory sinking fund redemption. (c) Reserve Account. At least one Business Day before each Interest Payment Date and after the deposits required pursuant to the preceding subparagraphs have been made, the Trustee shall withdraw from the Bond Fund and deposit in the Reserve Account and any subaccounts therein an amount of money, if any, required to maintain the Reserve Account and in the full amount of the Reserve Requirement. No deposit need be made in the Reserve Account and the separate subaccounts therein so long as there shall be on deposit therein a sum equal to at least the amount required by this paragraph to be on deposit therein. There is hereby established the Series B Bonds Reserve Subaccount in the Reserve Account, into which there shall be deposited from the proceeds of the Series B Bonds the amount set forth in Section 3.01 of the Series B Indenture, being the 2007 Reserve Requirement and which shall be held for the benefit of the Agency and the Owners of the Series B Bonds. There may be established in the Reserve Account in connection with issuance of any series of Parity Bonds a separate subaccount into which there shall be deposited the amount required by Section 3.03(e) of the Series B Indenture and in the Supplemental Indenture relating to such series of Parity Bonds. All money in the Reserve Account, and any subaccount therein shall be used and withdrawn by the Trustee solely for the purpose of replenishing the Interest Account and the Principal Account, in such order, in the event of any deficiency at any time in any of such accounts, or for the purpose of paying the interest on or principal of or redemption premiums, if any, on the Series B Bonds in the event that no other money of the Agency is lawfully available therefor, or for the retirement of the Series B Bonds then Outstanding, except that so long as the Agency is not in default under the Series B Indenture, any amount in the Reserve Account and each subaccount therein in excess of the amount required by this paragraph to be on deposit therein except as in the Series B Indenture otherwise provided, shall be transferred to the Bond Fund. The Reserve Requirement for a series of Bonds may be satisfied by crediting to the Reserve Account moneys, a letter of credit, a bond insurance policy, any other comparable credit facility or any combination thereof, which has been approved in writing by the rating agency then rating the Series B Bonds and which in the aggregate make funds available in the Reserve Account in an amount equal to the Reserve Requirement. Upon the deposit with the Trustee of such letter of credit, bond insurance policy or other comparable credit facility, the Trustee shall transfer a portion of the moneys then on hand in the Reserve Account to the Redevelopment Fund to be applied for lawful redevelopment purposes for which proceeds of the applicable series of bonds can be used. The Agency has delivered to the Series B Bonds Reserve Subaccount a surety bond (the Surety Bond ) to satisfy the 2007 Reserve Requirement. The Trustee shall hold the Surety Bond for the benefit of the Owners of the Series B Bonds and shall draw funds on the Surety Bond as stated therein. E-2-6

(d) Surplus. Except as may be otherwise provided in any Supplemental Indenture, the Agency shall not be obligated to transfer to the Trustee for deposit in the Bond Fund in any Bond Year an amount of Second Subordinate Tax Revenues which, together with other available amounts in the Bond Fund, exceeds the amounts required in such Bond Year pursuant to Section 5.03. In the event that for any reason whatsoever any amounts shall remain on deposit in the Bond Fund on any August 2 after making all of the transfers theretofore required to be made pursuant to the preceding clauses (a), (b) and (c) and pursuant to any Supplemental Indenture, the Trustee shall withdraw such amounts from the Bond Fund and transfer such amounts to the Agency, to be used for any lawful purposes of the Agency permitted by the Law. Covenants of the Agency Punctual Payment. The Agency will punctually pay or cause to be paid the principal and interest to become due in respect of all the Series B Bonds in strict conformity with the terms of the Series B Bonds and of the Series B Indenture, and it will faithfully observe and perform all of the conditions, covenants and requirements of the Series B Indenture and all Supplemental Indentures and of the Series B Bonds. Nothing in the Series B Indenture contained shall prevent the Agency from making advances of its own moneys howsoever derived to any of the uses or purposes permitted by law. Extension of Time for Payment. In order to prevent any accumulation of claims for interest after maturity, the Agency will not, directly or indirectly, extend or consent to the extension of the time for the payment of any claim for interest on any of the Series B Bonds and will not, directly or indirectly, approve any such arrangement by purchasing or funding said claims for interest or in any other manner. In case any such claim for interest shall be extended or funded whether or not with the consent of the Agency, such claim for interest so extended or funded shall not be entitled, in case of default under the Series B Indenture to the benefits of the Series B Indenture, except subject to the prior payment in full of the principal of all of the Series B Bonds then Outstanding and of all claims for interest which shall not have been so extended or funded. Against Encumbrances. Except for Parity Bonds of the Senior Lien Bonds, Senior and Subordinate Lien Bonds and Parity Bonds issued in accordance with Sections 3.03 and 3.04 of the Series B Indenture, the Agency covenants and agrees that it will not issue any other obligations payable, as to either principal or interest, from the Second Subordinate Tax Revenues which have, or purport to have, any lien upon the Second Subordinate Tax Revenues superior to or on a parity with the lien of the Series B Bonds; provided, however, that nothing in the Series B Indenture shall prevent the Agency from issuing and selling pursuant to law refunding bonds or other refunding obligations payable from and having a first lien on a parity basis with all Outstanding Parity Bonds upon the Second Subordinate Tax Revenues if such refunding bonds or other refunding obligations are issued and are sufficient for the purpose of refunding all or a portion of the Series B Bonds then Outstanding. Protection of Security and Rights of Bondowners. The Agency will preserve and protect the security of the Series B Bonds and the rights of the Bondowners, and will warrant and defend their rights against all claims and demands of all persons. From and after the sale and delivery of any of the Series B Bonds by the Agency the Series B Bonds shall be incontestable by the Agency. Payments of Taxes and Other Charges. The Agency will pay and discharge, or cause to be paid and discharged, all taxes, service charges, assessments and other governmental charges which may hereafter be lawfully imposed upon the Agency or the properties then owned by the Agency in the Project Area, or upon the revenues therefrom, when the same shall become due. Nothing in the Series B Indenture contained shall require the Agency to make any such payment so long as the Agency in good faith shall contest the validity of said taxes, assessments or charges. The Agency will duly observe and conform with all valid requirements of any governmental authority relative to the Project or any part thereof. Compliance with Law, Completion of Project. The Agency will comply with all applicable provisions of the Law in completing the Project including, without limitation, duly noticing and holding any public E-2-7

hearing required by either Section 33445 or 33679 of the Law prior to application of proceeds of the Series B Bonds to any portion of the Project subject to either Section 33445 or 33679. In addition, the Agency will comply timely with the public hearing and further requirements of Section 33334.6. The Agency will commence, and will continue to completion, with all practicable dispatch, the Project and the Project will be accomplished and completed in a sound and economical manner and in conformity with the Redevelopment Plan and the Law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Agency may, in accordance with applicable provisions of the Law, amend the limits of the Redevelopment Plan from time to time in order to extend the term or amount of any of such limits, so long as any such amendment will not reduce the amount of Second Subordinate Tax Revenues to be received by the Agency, as certified in a certificate of a Redevelopment Consultant. Taxation of Leased Property. Whenever any property in the Redevelopment Project has been redeveloped and thereafter is leased by the Agency to any person or persons (other than a public agency) or whenever the Agency leases real property in the Redevelopment Project to any person or persons (other than a public agency) for redevelopment, the property shall be assessed and taxed in the same manner as privately owned property, as required by Section 33673 of the Law. Disposition of Property. The Agency will not participate in the disposition of any land or real property in the Project Area to anyone which will result in such property becoming exempt from taxation because of public ownership or use or otherwise (except property dedicated for public right-of-way and except property planned for public ownership or use by the Redevelopment Plan in effect on the date of the Series B Indenture) if the effect of such disposition would be to cause the amount of Tax Revenues for the then current or any future Fiscal Year based on assessed valuation of property in the Project Area as evidenced in a written document from the County, to fall below 110% of Annual Debt Service on the Senior Lien Bonds, Senior and Subordinate Lien Bonds, the Series B Bonds and any Parity Bonds then outstanding. Tax Revenues. The Agency shall comply with all requirements of the Law to insure the allocation and payment to it of the Second Subordinate Tax Revenues including without limitation the timely filing of any necessary statements of indebtedness with appropriate officials of the County. The Agency shall not amend the Redevelopment Plan in any manner which reduces Second Subordinate Tax Revenues as certified by an Independent Financial Consultant. Use of Proceeds. The Agency covenants and agrees that the proceeds of the sale of the Series B Bonds will be deposited and used as provided in the Series B Indenture and the Law. Further Assurances. The Agency will adopt, make, execute and deliver any and all such further resolutions, instruments and assurances as may be reasonably necessary or proper to carry out the intention or to facilitate the performance of the Series B Indenture and for the better assuring and confirming unto the Owners of the Series B Bonds of the rights and benefits provided in the Series B Indenture. Private Activity Bond Limitation. The Agency shall assure that the proceeds of the Series B Bonds, issued as tax-exempt bonds under the Series B Indenture, are not so used as to cause the Series B Bonds, issued as tax-exempt bonds under the Series B Indenture, to satisfy the private business tests of Section 141(b) of the Code or the private loan financing test of Section 141(c) of the Code. Federal Guarantee Prohibition. The Agency shall not take any action or permit or suffer any action to be taken if the result of the same would be to cause any of the Series B Bonds, issued as tax-exempt bonds under the Series B Indenture, to be federally guaranteed within the meaning of Section 149(b) of the Code. Rebate Requirement. The Agency shall take any and all actions necessary to assure compliance with Section 148(f) of the Code, relating to the rebate of excess investment earnings, if any, to the federal E-2-8

government, to the extent that such section is applicable to the Series B Bonds, issued as tax-exempt bonds under the Series B Indenture. No Arbitrage. The Agency shall not take, or permit or suffer to be taken by the Trustee or otherwise, any action with respect to the proceeds of the Series B Bonds, issued as tax-exempt bonds under the Series B Indenture, which, if such action had been reasonably expected to have been taken, or had been deliberately and intentionally taken, on the date of issuance of the Series B Bonds, issued as tax-exempt bonds under the Series B Indenture, would have caused the Series B Bonds, issued as tax-exempt bonds under the Series B Indenture, to be arbitrage bonds within the meaning of Section 148 of the Code. Maintenance of Tax-Exemption. The Agency shall take all actions necessary to assure the exclusion of interest on the Series B Bonds, issued as tax-exempt bonds under the Series B Indenture, from the gross income of the Owners of the Series B Bonds, issued as tax-exempt bonds under the Series B Indenture, to the same extent as such interest is permitted to be excluded from gross income under the Code as in effect on the date of issuance of the Series B Bonds, issued as tax-exempt bonds under the Series B Indenture. Limit on Indebtedness. The Agency covenants with the Owners of all of the Series B Bonds at any time Outstanding that it will not enter into any obligation or make any expenditure payable from taxes allocated to the Agency under the Law the payments of which, together with payments theretofore made or to be made with respect to other obligations (including, but not limited to, the Series B Bonds) previously entered into by the Agency, would exceed the then-effective limit on the amount of taxes which can be allocated to the Agency pursuant to Section 33333.2(1) of the Law and the Redevelopment Plan. Annual Accounting of Tax Increment Revenues. The Agency will annually cause to be prepared and filed with the Trustee, within 180 days after the close of each Fiscal Year so long as any of the Series B Bonds are Outstanding, complete audited financial statements with respect to such Fiscal Year showing the Tax Revenues, Subordinate Tax Revenues and Second Subordinate Tax Revenues, all disbursements from the Special Fund and the financial condition of the Redevelopment Project, including the balances in all funds and accounts relating to the Redevelopment Project, as of the end of such Fiscal Year, and will prepare or cause to be prepared and filed with the Trustee a pro forma statement demonstrating the future availability of sufficient tax increment revenues to pay timely within the existing limitation on the amount of Tax Revenues, Subordinate Tax Revenues and Second Subordinate Tax Revenues allocable and payable to the Agency under the Redevelopment Plan (the Tax Increment Limitation ) (i) the Senior Lien Bonds, the Senior and Subordinate Lien Bonds, the Series B Bonds, all Parity Bonds and subordinate debt, and (ii) the amount payable in the then current Fiscal Year included within the Tax Increment Limitation which are required by section 33334.2 of the Redevelopment Law to be deposited in the Agency's Low and Moderate Income Housing Fund (the Set-Aside Requirement ) which statements and pro forma statement shall be accompanied by a written certificate of the Agency stating that the Agency is in compliance with its obligations under the Series B Indenture. The Trustee shall have no duty or responsibility to review such financial statements. The pro forma statement shall be prepared on or before August 1 of each year or as soon thereafter as practicable, commencing August 1, 2008, and shall set forth: (1) The difference between the Tax Increment Limitation less the total amount of tax increment revenues theretofore allocated to the Agency from and after the Fiscal Year in which a limitation on the allocation of tax increment revenues was established (the Remaining Limitation Amount ); and (2) The principal and interest remaining to be paid on the Senior Lien Bonds, the Senior and Subordinate Lien Bonds, the Series B Bonds, the Parity Bonds and on the subordinate debt, plus the Set-Aside requirement (collectively, the Total Debt Service ). E-2-9

To the extent the Remaining Limitation Amount is equal to 110% or less than the Total Debt Service, the pro forma statement shall set forth the principal amount of the Senior Lien Bonds, the Senior and Subordinate Lien Bonds, the Series B Bonds, the Parity Bonds or subordinate debt (to the nearest integral multiple of $5,000), as applicable that must be retired in order for the Remaining Limitation Amount to be at least equal to 110% of the Total Debt Service (the Prepayment Amount ). In making this calculation, the Agency shall assume that it will prepay debt in the following order or priority (the Prepayment Order ): (a) it shall prepay the Senior Lien Bonds, the Senior and Subordinate Lien Bonds, the Series B Bonds and all Outstanding Parity Bonds by allocating payment among the principal of the Senior Lien Bonds,, the Senior and Subordinate Lien Bonds, the Series B Bonds and applicable principal payments with respect to Parity Bonds as the Agency shall designate and (b) to the extent there are no longer any Series B Bonds or Parity Bonds outstanding, prepay the subordinate debt pro rata by maturity and by lot within a maturity, in a manner which results in the Senior Lien Bonds, the Senior and Subordinate Lien Bonds, Parity Bonds and subordinate debt to be paid from Tax Revenues, Subordinate Tax Revenues and Second Subordinate Tax Revenues in a timely manner. The Agency shall notify the trustee for the Senior Lien Bonds and the, the Senior and Subordinate Lien Bonds of the Prepayment Amount, if any, applicable to the Senior Lien Bonds, the Senior and Subordinate Lien Bonds, the Series B Bonds and all Parity Bonds as soon as possible after completion of the pro forma statement and shall pay any Prepayment Amount from Tax Revenues, Subordinate Tax Revenues and Second Subordinate Tax Revenues after (i) having on deposit in the Special Fund an amount equal to the principal and interest due and payable in the next succeeding Bond Year on the Senior Lien Bonds, the Senior and Subordinate Lien Bonds, the Series B Bonds and all Parity Bonds, and (ii) having on deposit an amount sufficient to pay principal and interest in the next succeeding Bond Year on the subordinate debt. At the time the Remaining Limitation Amount is determined to be 110% or less than the Total Debt Service, the Agency shall transfer any Prepayment Amount to the Trustee for deposit in the Redemption Account for the Series B Bonds, the Senior Lien Bonds, the Senior and Subordinate Lien Bonds, or the Redemption Account or any other payment with respect to Parity Bonds, as applicable, and use such moneys to redeem as applicable Senior Lien Bonds, Senior and Subordinate Lien Bonds and redeem or otherwise prepay Parity Bonds, as applicable, on the first applicable optional redemption date in the Prepayment Order and at the applicable redemption price, all as further provided in the Series B Indenture. Notwithstanding the above, if prior to any such optional redemption, a subsequent annual pro forma statement indicates that further Tax Revenues, Subordinate Tax Revenues and Second Subordinate Tax Revenues will be 110% or more of the Total Debt Service in each year such debt service is payable, the Agency may authorize the Trustee to release such Tax Revenues, Subordinate Tax Revenues and Second Subordinate Tax Revenues from the Redemption Account for delivery to the Agency. Amounts deposited in the Redemption Account for such purposes shall be invested solely in Defeasance Obligations. The Agency shall furnish a copy of the above-referenced written certificates, statements and pro forma statement to any Owner upon reasonable request at the expense of such Owner. Continuing Disclosure. The Agency hereby covenants and agrees that it will comply with and carry out all of the provisions of the Continuing Disclosure Agreement. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Series B Indenture, failure of the Agency to comply with the Continuing Disclosure Agreement shall not be considered an Event of Default; however, the Trustee shall, at the written request of any participating underwriter or the Owners of at least 25% aggregate principal amount of Outstanding Bonds, but only to the extent the Trustee has been indemnified from and against any loss, cost, expense, claim or liability, including, without limitation, fees and expenses of attorneys and additional fees and expenses of the Trustee or any Bondowner may take such actions as may be necessary and appropriate, including seeking mandamus or specific performance by court order, to cause the Agency to comply with its obligations under this section. E-2-10

Duties and Liabilities of Trustee Duties, Immunities and Liabilities of Trustee. (a) The Trustee shall, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, and after the curing or waiver of all Events of Default which may have occurred, perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in the Series B Indenture. The Trustee shall only be obligated to perform such duties as are expressly set forth in the Series B Indenture, and no duties or obligations not expressly set forth in the Series B Indenture shall be implied. The Trustee shall, during the existence of any Event of Default (which has not been cured or waived), exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by the Series B Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his own affairs. (b) The Agency may remove the Trustee, at any time, unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and then be continuing, and shall remove the Trustee (i) if at any time requested to do so by an instrument or concurrent instruments in writing signed by the Owners of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Series B Bonds then Outstanding (or their attorneys duly authorized in writing), or (ii) if at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with subsection (e) of Section 7.01 of the Series B Indenture, or shall become incapable of acting, or shall be adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent, or a receiver of the Trustee or its property shall be appointed, or any public officer shall take control or charge of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation. In each case such removal shall be accomplished by the giving of written notice of such removal by the Agency to the Trustee, whereupon in the case of the Trustee, the Agency shall appoint a successor Trustee by an instrument in writing. (c) The Trustee may at any time resign by giving written notice of such resignation to the Agency and by giving the Bondowners notice of such resignation by mail at their respective addresses shown on the Registration Books. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Agency shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee by an instrument in writing. The Trustee shall not be relieved of its duties until such successor Trustee has accepted such appointment. (d) Any removal or resignation of the Trustee and appointment of a successor Trustee shall become effective upon acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee. If no successor Trustee shall have been appointed and have accepted appointment within thirty (30) days of giving notice of removal or notice of resignation as aforesaid, the resigning Trustee or any Bondowner (on behalf of himself and all other Bondowners), at the expense of the Agency, may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee, and such court may thereupon, after such notice (if any) as it may deem proper, appoint such successor Trustee. Any successor Trustee appointed under the Series B Indenture shall signify its acceptance of such appointment by executing and delivering to the Agency and to its predecessor Trustee a written acceptance thereof, and thereupon and upon receipt by the predecessor Trustee of all fees and expenses due and payable to it, such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the moneys, estates, properties, rights, powers, trusts, duties and obligations of such predecessor Trustee, with like effect as if originally named Trustee in the Series B Indenture; but, nevertheless at the Written Request of the Agency or the request of the successor Trustee, such predecessor Trustee shall execute and deliver any and all instruments of conveyance or further assurance and do such other things as may reasonably be required for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor Trustee all the right, title and interest of such predecessor Trustee in and to any property held by it under the Series B Indenture and shall pay over, transfer, assign and deliver to the successor Trustee any money or other property subject to the trusts and conditions in the Series B Indenture set forth. Upon request of the successor Trustee, the Agency shall execute and deliver any and all instruments as may be reasonably required for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor Trustee all such moneys, estates, properties, rights, powers, trusts, duties and obligations. Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor Trustee as provided in this subsection (d), the Agency shall mail a notice of the succession of such Trustee to the trusts under the Series B E-2-11

Indenture to each rating agency which then has a current rating on the Series B Bonds, if any, and to the Bondowners at their respective addresses shown on the Registration Books. If the Agency fails to mail such notice within fifteen (15) days after acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee, the successor Trustee shall cause such notice to be mailed at the expense of the Agency. (e) Any Trustee appointed under the provisions of Section 7.01 of the Series B Indenture in succession to the Trustee shall be a corporation or other entity organized and doing business under the laws of any state, the District of Columbia or the United States of America, authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers, which shall have (or, in the case of a corporation included in a bank holding company system, the related bank holding company shall have) a combined capital and surplus of at least seventy-five million dollars ($75,000,000), and subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authority. If such corporation or other entity publishes a report of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of any supervising or examining authority above referred to, then for the purpose of this subsection (e) the combined capital and surplus of such corporation or other entity shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. In case at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this subsection (e), the Trustee shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in Subsection (d) above. Merger or Consolidation. Any bank or company into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which either of them may be consolidated or any bank or company resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which it shall be a party or any bank or company to which the Trustee may sell or transfer all or substantially all of its corporate trust business, provided such bank or company shall be eligible under subsection (e) of Section 7.01, shall be the successor to such Trustee without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act, anything in the Series B Indenture to the contrary notwithstanding. Liability of Trustee. (a) The recitals of facts in the Series B Indenture and in the Series B Bonds contained shall be taken as statements of the Agency, and the Trustee shall not assume responsibility for the correctness of the same, nor make any representations as to the validity or sufficiency of the Series B Indenture or of the Series B Bonds nor shall incur any responsibility in respect thereof, other than as expressly stated in the Series B Indenture. The Trustee shall, however, be responsible for its representations contained in its certificate of authentication on the Series B Bonds. The Trustee shall not be liable in connection with the performance of its duties under the Series B Indenture, except for its own negligence or willful misconduct. The Trustee may act through agents, attorneys and receivers and shall not be liable for the acts or omissions of any agents, attorneys or receivers selected by it with due care. The Trustee may become the Owner of Bonds with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee and, to the extent permitted by law, may act as depositary for and permit any of its officers or directors to act as a member of, or in any other capacity with respect to, any committee formed to protect the rights of Bondowners, whether or not such committee shall represent the Owners of a majority in principal amount of the Series B Bonds then Outstanding. (b) The Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by its officers, agents, directors or employees, unless it shall be proved that it was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts. (c) The Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the direction of the Owners of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount (or other percentage provided for in the Series B Indenture) of the Series B Bonds at the time Outstanding, relating to the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee under the Series B Indenture. E-2-12

(d) The Trustee shall not be liable for any action taken by it in good faith and believed by it to be authorized or within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it by the Series B Indenture. (e) The Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any Event of Default under the Series B Indenture unless and until it shall have actual knowledge thereof, or shall have received written notice thereof, at its Corporate Trust Office. Except as otherwise expressly provided in the Series B Indenture, the Trustee shall not be bound to ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, conditions, covenants or agreements in the Series B Indenture or of any of the documents executed in connection with the Series B Bonds, or as to the existence of an Event of Default thereunder. The Trustee shall not be responsible for the validity or effectiveness of any collateral given to or held by it. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Trustee shall not be responsible for reviewing the contents of any financial statements furnished to the Trustee pursuant to Section 6.07 of the Series B Indenture and may rely conclusively on the certificates accompanying such financial statements to establish the Agency's compliance with its financial covenants under the Series B Indenture, including, without limitation, its covenants regarding the deposit of Second Subordinate Tax Revenues into the Bond Fund and the investment and application of moneys on deposit in the Bond Fund (other than its covenants to transfer such moneys to the Trustee when due under the Series B Indenture). (f) The Trustee shall not be considered in breach of or in default in its obligations under the Series B Indenture or progress in respect thereto in the event of enforced delay ( unavoidable delay ) in the performance of such obligations due to unforeseeable causes beyond its control and without its fault or negligence, including, but not limited to, acts of God or of the public enemy or terrorists, acts of a government, acts of the other party, fires, floods, epidemics, quarantine restrictions, strikes, freight embargoes, earthquakes, explosion, mob violence, riot, inability to procure or general sabotage or rationing of labor, equipment, facilities, sources of energy, material or supplies in the open market, litigation or arbitration involving a party or others relating to zoning or other governmental action or inaction pertaining to the project, malicious mischief, condemnation, and unusually severe weather or delays or suppliers or subcontractors due to such causes or any similar event and/or occurrences beyond the control of the Trustee. (g) The Trustee agrees to accept and act upon facsimile transmission of written instructions and/or directions pursuant to the Series B Indenture provided, however, that: (i) subsequent to such facsimile transmission of written instructions and/or directions the Trustee shall forthwith receive the originally executed instructions and/or directions, (ii) such originally executed instructions and/or directions shall be signed by a person as may be designated and authorized to sign for the party signing such instructions and/or directions, and (iii) the Trustee shall have received a current incumbency certificate containing the specimen signature of such designated person. Right to Rely on Documents. The Trustee shall be protected in acting upon any notice, resolution, request, consent, order, certificate, requisition, report, opinion, bonds or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties. The Trustee may consult with counsel, who may be counsel of or to the Agency, with regard to legal questions, and the opinion of such counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken or suffered by it under the Series B Indenture in good faith and in accordance therewith. The Trustee shall not be bound to recognize any person as the Owner of a Bond unless and until such Bond is submitted for inspection, if required, and his title thereto is established to the satisfaction of the Trustee. Whenever in the administration of the trusts imposed upon it by the Series B Indenture the Trustee shall deem it necessary or desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking or suffering any action under the Series B Indenture, such matter (unless other evidence in respect thereof be in the Series B Indenture specifically prescribed) may be deemed to be conclusively proved and established by a written certificate of the Agency, which shall be full warrant to the Trustee for any action E-2-13

taken or suffered in good faith under the provisions of the Series B Indenture in reliance upon such written certificate. No provision in the Series B Indenture shall require the Trustee to risk or expend its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability under the Series B Indenture. The Trustee shall be entitled to interest on any amounts advanced by it at the maximum rate permitted by law. The Trustee shall have no responsibility with respect to any information, statement, or recital in any official statement, offering memorandum or any other disclosure material prepared or distributed with respect to the Series B Bonds. Preservation and Inspection of Documents. All documents received by the Trustee under the provisions of the Series B Indenture shall be retained in its possession and shall be subject at all reasonable times during business hours upon reasonable notice to the inspection of the Agency and any Bondowner of at least 5% of the principal amount of Bonds Outstanding, and their agents and representatives duly authorized in writing, at reasonable hours and under reasonable conditions. Compensation and Indemnification. The Agency shall pay to the Trustee from time to time all compensation for all reasonable services rendered under the Series B Indenture and also all reasonable expenses, charges, legal and consulting fees and other disbursements and those of its attorneys, agents and employees, incurred in and about the performance of its powers and duties under the Series B Indenture. The Agency further covenants and agrees to indemnify and save the Trustee and its officers, directors, agents and employees harmless against any costs, claims, loss, expense and liabilities which it may incur arising out of or in the acceptance, exercise and performance of its powers and duties under the Series B Indenture, including the costs and expenses of defending against any claim of liability, but excluding any and all losses, expenses and liabilities which are due to the negligence, willful misconduct or willful default of the Trustee, its officers, directors, agents or employees. The obligations of the Agency under this paragraph shall survive resignation or removal of the Trustee under the Series B Indenture and payment of the Series B Bonds and discharge of the Series B Indenture. Deposit and Investment of Moneys in Funds. Moneys in the Bond Fund, the Interest Account, the Principal Account, the Reserve Account, the Redemption Fund, and the Costs of Issuance Fund shall be invested by the Trustee in Permitted Investments as specified by the Treasurer of the Agency and shall be promptly confirmed in writing by the Agency with the Trustee within at least one (1) Business Day. In the absence of any such direction provided by the Treasurer of the Agency, the Trustee shall invest any such moneys in Permitted Investments described in clause (v) of the definition thereof which by their terms mature prior to the date on which such moneys are required to be paid out under the Series B Indenture. Investments in such accounts shall be valued at market at least semi-annually. No forward delivery agreements, hedge, purchase and resale agreements or par-put agreements may be used with respect to the investment of any fund or account with respect to the trust estate pledged to the Series B Bonds. Moneys in the Series B Bonds Reserve Account shall only be invested in the investments described in items (i), (ii), and (v) of the definition of Permitted Investments with maturities of no longer than 5 years and such other investments described in the definition of Permitted Investments. Obligations purchased as an investment of moneys in any fund shall be deemed to be part of such fund or account. Whenever in the Series B Indenture any moneys are required to be transferred by the Agency to the Trustee, such transfer may be accomplished by transferring a like amount of Permitted Investments which by their terms mature prior to the date on which such moneys are required to be paid out under the Series B Indenture. All interest or gain derived from the investment of amounts in any of the funds or accounts established under the Series B Indenture (other than with respect to funds held by the Agency) shall be retained in the respective funds and accounts to be used for the purposes thereof; provided, however, that all interest or gain from the investment of amounts in the respective subaccounts E-2-14

of the Reserve Account shall be deposited by the Trustee in the Interest Account, but only to the extent that the amount remaining in the respective subaccounts of the Reserve Account following such deposit is equal to the Reserve Requirement for the applicable series of Bonds. The Agency acknowledges that to the extent regulations of the Controller of the Currency or other applicable regulatory entity grant the Agency the right to receive brokerage confirmations of security transactions as they occur, the Agency specifically waives receipt of such confirmations to the extent permitted by law. The Trustee will furnish the Agency periodic cash transaction statements which include detail for all investment transactions made by the Trustee under the Series B Indenture. Moneys credited to any fund or account under the Series B Indenture which are uninvested pending disbursement or receipt of proper investment directions or as directed by the Agency as provided in the Series B Indenture, may be deposited to and held in a non-interest bearing demand deposit account established with the commercial banking department of the Trustee or any bank affiliated with the Trustee. The Trustee may make any investments under the Series B Indenture through its own bond or investment department or trust investment department, or those of its parent or any affiliate. The Trustee or any of its affiliates may act as sponsor, advisor or manager in connection with any investments made by the Trustee under the Series B Indenture. For purposes of acquiring any investments under the Series B Indenture, the Trustee may in its discretion commingle funds held by it under the Series B Indenture. The Trustee (or any of its affiliates) may act as principal or agent in the acquisition of any investment. The Trustee shall incur no liability for losses arising from any investments made pursuant to Section 7.07 of the Series B Indenture. For purposes of determining the amount on deposit in any fund or account held under the Series B Indenture, all Permitted Investments credited to such fund or account shall be valued by the Trustee, at least monthly, at the market value (excluding accrued interest, other than in the case of the Reserve Account (where accrued interest shall be included) and excluding brokerage commissions, if any). In making any such valuations, the Trustee may utilize computerized securities pricing services that may be available to it, including those available through its regular accounting system. Parity Bonds Issuance of Parity Bonds. The Series B Bonds and the Series B Bonds are issued on a subordinate basis to the Senior Lien Bonds and the Senior and Subordinate Lien Bonds. The Agency may issue bonds on a basis senior to the Series B Indenture so long as the provisions of the Senior Lien Bonds Indentures and the Series B Indenture have been satisfied. In addition to the Series B Bonds, the Agency may, by a Supplemental Indenture, issue Parity Bonds payable from Second Subordinate Tax Revenues as and to the extent provided in the Series B Indenture and secured by the pledge made under the Series B Indenture equally and ratably with the Series B Bonds previously issued. The Agency may issue, and the Trustee may authenticate and deliver to the purchasers thereof, Parity Bonds, in such principal amount as shall be determined by the Agency, but only upon compliance by the Agency with the provisions of Section 3.03 and Section 3.04 of the Series B Indenture and any additional requirements set forth in said Supplemental Indenture and subject to the following specific conditions, which are made conditions precedent to the issuance of any such Parity Bonds: (a) No Event of Default shall have occurred and then be continuing; (b) A Tax Revenue Certificate shall be delivered to the Trustee which shows that the amount of Tax Revenues, based on assessed valuation of property in the Project Area as evidenced in the written records of the County, together with an allowance for estimated additional annual Tax Revenues to be received by the Agency within the Fiscal Year following the date such computation was made due to increase in taxable valuation of property in the Project Area resulting from the transfer of ownership or E-2-15

any other interest in real property but not yet entered on the tax roll, shall be at least equal to 110% of the sum of Annual Debt Service on the Senior and Subordinate Lien Bonds and the Series B Bonds (including such Parity Debt) for the then current Fiscal Year and all subsequent Fiscal Years through the final maturity of the Series B Bonds and any Parity Debt. For purposes of this calculation, Tax Revenues will be calculated using a 1% tax rate and shall further be reduced by (i) the amount of subventions paid by the State of California or any other amount appropriated by the State for the Agency; (ii) unless the Teeter Plan is currently in effect and the County has made no announcement that the Teeter Plan would terminate, the amount derived by applying the average percentage by which the actual tax collections in the Project Area are less than the amount of the tax levy in the Project Area for the immediately preceding five Fiscal Years; and (iii) the maximum percentage of Tax Revenues payable to a taxing entity pursuant to all non-subordinated Pass Through Agreements, regardless of whether such maximum percentage is in effect for that year. For example, if a Pass Through Agreement includes a step up provision or takes effect upon the occurrence of some event, that pass through shall be calculated at the maximum rate pursuant to the step up or as if the event had already taken place; (c) The Agency shall certify to the Trustee that the aggregate amount of the principal of and interest on all Outstanding Bonds (including the Senior Lien Bonds and Senior and Subordinate Lien Bonds) coming due and payable following the issuance of such Parity Bonds shall not exceed the maximum amount of Tax Revenues permitted under the Redevelopment Plan to be allocated and paid to the Agency following the issuance of such Parity Bonds, and shall not exceed any limitation on the time during which such tax increment revenues may be received; (d) The Supplemental Indenture authorizing the issuance of Parity Bonds shall provide that (i) interest on such Parity Bonds shall be calculated at a fixed interest rate if the Agency determines in such Supplemental Indenture that it is to be paid on a current basis, shall be payable on February 1 and August 1 in each year of the term of such Parity Bonds except the first twelve-month period during which interest may be payable on any February 1 or August 1, and (ii) the principal of such Parity Bonds shall be payable on August 1 in any year, as determined by the Agency, in which principal is payable; (e) Money shall be deposited in the Reserve Account or in a subaccount therein (or a reserve fund letter of credit, bank insurance policy or other comparable credit facility provided) in an amount equal to the Reserve Requirement for all outstanding Bonds, including such Parity Bonds; and (f) The Agency shall deliver to the Trustee a certificate of the Agency certifying that the conditions precedent to the issuance of such Parity Bonds set forth in the Indenture have been satisfied and that the deposit into the Reserve Account as set forth above has been made. For the purposes of the calculation of the coverage requirements set forth in subsection (b) of this Section 3.03 with respect to the issuance of Parity Bonds, Outstanding Bonds and Parity Bonds shall not include a principal amount of such Parity Bonds, determined on such basis among maturities as the Agency may determine, equal to the proceeds of such Parity Bonds to be deposited in an escrow fund established for such Parity Bonds (the Escrowed Bonds ), provided that the Supplemental Indenture authorizing the issuance of such Parity Bonds shall provide that: (1) Such proceeds shall be invested in Permitted Investments, and an amount equal to the difference between the projected interest earnings on such proceeds and the interest due on the Escrowed Bonds shall be deposited in the Interest Account so as to pay interest on the Escrowed Bonds as it becomes due and payable; (2) Moneys may be transferred from the escrow fund established for the Escrowed Bonds only if a Tax Revenue Certificate shall be delivered to the Trustee which shows that the amount of Tax Revenues, based on assessed valuation of property in the Project Area as evidenced in the written records of the County shall be at least equal to 110% of the sum of Annual Debt Service on the Senior Lien Bonds, Senior and Subordinate Lien Bonds and the Series B Bonds (including such Parity Debt) for the then current Fiscal Year and all subsequent E-2-16

Fiscal Years through the final maturity of the Series B Bonds and any Parity Debt. For purposes of this calculation, Tax Revenues will be calculated using a 1% tax rate and shall further be reduced by (i) the amount of subventions paid by the State of California or any other amount appropriated by the State for the Agency; (ii) unless the Teeter Plan is currently in effect and the County has made no announcement that the Teeter Plan would terminate, the amount derived by applying the average percentage by which the actual tax collections in the Project Area are less than the amount of the tax levy in the Project Area for the immediately preceding five Fiscal Years; and (iii) the maximum percentage of Tax Revenues payable to a taxing entity pursuant to all non-subordinated Pass Through Agreements, regardless of whether such maximum percentage is in effect for that year. For example, if a Pass Through Agreement includes a step up provision or takes effect upon the occurrence of some event, that pass through shall be calculated at the maximum rate pursuant to the step up or as if the event had already taken place; and (3) Such Parity Bonds shall be redeemed from moneys remaining on deposit in the escrow fund established for the Escrowed Bonds at the expiration of a specified escrow period in such manner as may be determined by the Agency in the Supplemental Indenture. The Agency shall not issue any indebtedness bearing interest at variable rates. Any computations establishing that debt service coverage is sufficient to authorize to support the issuance of Parity Debt or that requisite debt service savings are available to support the issuance of refunding bonds shall, in all cases, be evidenced by a certificate of an Independent Certified Public Accountant or an Independent Financial Consultant. Proceedings for Issuance of Parity Bonds. Whenever the Agency shall determine to issue Parity Bonds pursuant to Section 3.03 of the Series B Indenture, the Agency shall authorize the execution of a Supplemental Indenture specifying the principal amount and prescribing the forms of such Parity Bonds and providing the terms, conditions, distinctive designation, denominations, date, maturity date or dates, interest rate or rates (or the manner of determining same), redemption provisions and place or places of payment of principal or of premium (if any) and interest on such Parity Bonds, and any other provisions respecting the Parity Bonds not inconsistent with the terms of the Series B Indenture. Before such Parity Bonds shall be issued and delivered, the Agency shall file the following documents with the Trustee: (a) An executed copy of the Supplemental Indenture authorizing such Bonds. (b) A Written Certificate of the Agency stating that, to the knowledge of the Agency, no Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing. (c) An opinion of Bond Counsel that the execution of the Supplemental Indenture has been duly authorized by the Agency in accordance with the Series B Indenture; that the Parity Bonds, when duly executed by the Agency and authenticated and delivered by the Trustee, will be legally valid and binding limited obligations of the Agency; and that the issuance of such Parity Bonds will not in and of itself impair the exclusion for federal income tax purposes of interest on any Outstanding Bonds. (d) A written certificate of the Agency certifying that the conditions precedent to the issuance of such Parity Bonds set forth in Section 3.03 of the Series B Indenture have been satisfied. Subordinate Debt. Nothing in the Series B Indenture shall be intended or construed in any way to prohibit or impose any limitations on the issuance by the Agency of bonds, notes, or other obligations or evidences of indebtedness payable from Second Subordinate Tax Revenues on a subordinate basis to the pledge of Second Subordinate Tax Revenues to the repayment of the Series B Bonds and any Parity Bonds ( Subordinate Debt ), provided that following an Event of Default under the Series B Indenture, E-2-17

no Subordinate Debt shall be paid prior to the Series B Bonds or any other Parity Debt in any fiscal year of the Agency. Modification or Amendments Amendments Permitted. The Series B Indenture and the rights and obligations of the Agency and of the Owners of the Series B Bonds may be modified or amended at any time by a Supplemental Indenture and pursuant to the affirmative vote at a meeting of Bondowners or with the written consent without a meeting of the Owners of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Series B Bonds then Outstanding, exclusive of Bonds disqualified as provided in Section 8.04 of the Series B Indenture. No such modification or amendment shall (1) extend the maturity of any Bond or reduce the interest rate thereon, or otherwise alter or impair the obligation of the Agency to pay the principal thereof, or interest thereon, or any premium payable on the redemption thereof, at the time and place and at the rate and in the currency provided therein without the express consent of the Owner of such Bond, or (2) permit the creation by the Agency of any mortgage pledge or lien upon the Second Subordinate Tax Revenues superior to or on a parity with the pledge and lien created for the benefit of the Series B Bonds (except as otherwise provided in the Series B Indenture) or reduce the percentage of Bonds required for the affirmative vote or written consent to an amendment or modification or (3) modify any of the rights or obligations of the Trustee without its written assent thereto. The Series B Indenture and the rights and obligations of the Agency and of the Owners of the Series B Bonds may also be modified or amended at any time by a Supplemental Indenture, but without the consent of any Bondowners, but only to the extent permitted by law and only for any one or more of the following purposes: (a) to add to the covenants and agreements of the Agency in the Series B Indenture contained, other covenants and agreements thereafter to be observed or to limit or surrender any right or power in the Series B Indenture reserved to or conferred upon the Agency; or (b) to make modifications not adversely affecting any Outstanding series of Bonds of the Agency in any material respect, including an amendment pursuant to Section 5.05 of the Series B Indenture; or (c) with the written consent of the Trustee to make such provisions for the purpose of curing any ambiguity, or of curing, correcting or supplementing any defective provision contained in the Series B Indenture, or in regard to questions arising under the Series B Indenture, as the Agency and the Trustee may deem necessary or desirable and not inconsistent with the Series B Indenture, and which shall not materially adversely affect the rights of the Owners of the Series B Bonds; or (d) to provide for the issuance of any Parity Bonds, and to provide the terms and conditions under which such Parity Bonds may be issued, subject to and in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.03 and Section 3.04 of the Series B Indenture. Bondowners' Meetings. The Agency may at any time call a meeting of the Bondowners. In such event the Agency is authorized to fix the time and place of said meeting and to provide for the giving of notice thereof and to fix and adopt rules and regulations for the conduct of said meeting. Procedure for Amendment with Written Consent of Bondowners. The Agency may at any time adopt a Supplemental Indenture amending the provisions of the Series B Bonds or of the Series B Indenture or any Supplemental Indenture, to the extent that such amendment is permitted by Section 8.01 of the Series B Indenture, to take effect when and as provided in this section. A copy of such Supplemental Indenture, together with a request to Bondowners for their consent thereto, shall be mailed by the Agency to each registered Owner of Bonds Outstanding, but failure to mail copies of such Supplemental Indenture and request shall not affect the validity of the Supplemental Indenture when assented to as in this section provided. E-2-18

Such Supplemental Indenture shall not become effective unless there shall be filed with the Trustee the written consents of the Owners of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Series B Bonds then Outstanding (exclusive of Bonds disqualified as provided in Section 8.04 of the Series B Indenture) and a notice shall have been mailed as hereinafter in this section provided. Each such consent shall be effective only if accompanied by proof of ownership of the Series B Bonds for which such consent is given which proof shall be such as is permitted by Section 10.04 of the Series B Indenture. Any such consent shall be binding upon the Owner of the Series B Bonds giving such consent and on any subsequent Owner (whether or not such subsequent Owner has notice thereof) unless such consent is revoked in writing by the Owner giving such consent or a subsequent Owner by filing such revocation with the Trustee prior to the date when the notice hereinafter in this section provided for has been mailed. Any revocation received by the Trustee after such notice has been mailed shall be of no force or effect. After the Owners of the required percentage of Bonds shall have filed their consents to the Supplemental Indenture, the Agency shall mail a notice to the Bondowners in the manner hereinbefore provided in this section for the mailing of the Supplemental Indenture, stating in substance that the Supplemental Indenture has been consented to by the Owners of the required percentage of Bonds and will be effective as provided in this section (but failure to mail copies of said notice shall not affect the validity of the Supplemental Indenture or consents thereto). Proof of the mailing of such notice shall be filed with the Trustee. A record consisting of the papers required by this section to be filed with the Trustee shall be proof of the matters therein stated until the contrary is proved. The Supplemental Indenture shall become effective upon the filing with the Trustee of the proof of mailing of such notice, and the Supplemental Indenture shall be deemed conclusively binding (except as otherwise hereinabove specifically provided in this article) upon the Agency and the Owners of all Bonds at the expiration of sixty (60) days after such filing, except in the event of a final decree of a court of competent jurisdiction setting aside such consent in a legal action or equitable proceeding for such purpose commenced within such sixty-day period. Events of Default; Remedies Events of Default and Acceleration of Maturities. The following events shall constitute Events of Default under the Series B 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 Agency in the observance of any of the covenants, agreements or conditions on its part in the Series B Indenture or in the Series B 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 the receipt by the Agency of written notice from the Trustee or any Bondowner of the occurrence of such default; provided, however, that if in the reasonable opinion of the Agency the failure stated in such notice can be corrected, but not within such thirty (30)-day period and if corrective action is instituted by the Agency within such thirty (30)-day period the Agency may diligently pursue such corrective action until such failure is corrected, but in no event more than 90 days following the receipt by the Agency of such notice; or (c) if the Agency shall file a petition or answer seeking reorganization or arrangement under the federal bankruptcy laws or any other applicable law of the United States of America, or if a court of competent jurisdiction shall approve a petition, filed with or without the consent of the Agency, seeking reorganization under the federal bankruptcy laws or any other applicable law of the United States of America, or if, under the provisions of any other law for the relief or aid of debtors, any court of competent jurisdiction shall assume custody or control of the Agency or of the whole or any substantial part of its property. E-2-19

If an Event of Default shall occur, then, and in each and every such case during the continuance of such Event of Default, the Trustee may, or if requested in writing by the Owners of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Series B Bonds then Outstanding, the Trustee shall (a) declare the principal of the Series B 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, anything in the Series B Indenture or in the Series B Bonds to the contrary notwithstanding, and (d) subject to the provisions of Section 9.06 of the Series B Indenture, exercise any other remedies available to the Trustee and the Bondowners in law or at equity.

With respect to any Event of Default described in clause (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 Owners of the Series B Bonds in the same manner as provided herein for notices of redemption of the Series B Bonds. Upon declaration of an Event of Default, the Agency shall transfer the Special Fund and all moneys therein to the Trustee who shall hold such Special Fund for the benefit of the Bondholders until such Event of Default shall have been cured. This provision, however, is subject to the condition that if, at any time after the principal of the Series B 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 Agency shall deposit with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay all principal on the Series B Bonds matured prior to such declaration and all matured installments of interest (if any) upon all the Series B Bonds, with interest on such overdue installments of principal and interest at the net effective rate then borne by the Outstanding Bonds, and the reasonable fees and expenses of the Trustee, and any and all other defaults known to the Trustee (other than in the payment of principal of and interest on the Series B 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 Series B Bonds then Outstanding, by written notice to the Agency and to the Trustee, may, on behalf of the Owners of all of the Series B 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. Subject to the provisions of the Series B Indenture, the Trustee agrees to enforce by mandamus, suit or other proceeding at law or in equity the covenants and agreements of the Agency. Application of Funds Upon Acceleration. All of the Second Subordinate Tax Revenues and all sums in the funds and accounts established and held by the Trustee under the Series B Indenture upon the date of the declaration of acceleration (other than the Rebate Account, if any) as provided in Section 9.01 of the Series B Indenture, and all sums thereafter received by the Trustee under the Series B Indenture, shall be applied by the Trustee in the following order 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 and thereafter of the Bondowners in declaring such Event of Default, including reasonable compensation to its or their agents, attorneys and counsel; and Second, to the payment of the whole amount then owing and unpaid upon the Series B 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 installments of principal and interest shall have been collected), and in case such moneys shall be E-2-20

insufficient to pay in full the whole amount so owing and unpaid upon the Series B 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 installment of interest over any other installment of interest, or any Bond over any other Bond, ratably to the aggregate of such principal and interest. Power of Trustee to Control Proceedings. In the event that 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 Series B Indenture, whether upon its own discretion or upon the request of the Owners of a majority in principal amount of the Series B Bonds then Outstanding, it shall have full power, in the exercise of its discretion for the best interests of the Owners of the Series B 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 Series B Indenture opposing such discontinuance, withdrawal, compromise, settlement or other disposal of such litigation.

APPENDIX F BOOK-ENTRY ONLY SYSTEM The information in this Appendix concerning DTC and DTC s book-entry system has been obtained from sources that the Agency believes to be reliable, but the Agency takes no responsibility for the accuracy thereof. The Agency gives no assurances that (i) DTC, the Direct and Indirect Participants or others will distribute payments of principal, premium (if any) or interest with respect to the Bonds paid to DTC or its nominee as, the registered owner, to the Beneficial Owners, (ii) such entities will distribute redemption notices or other notices, to the Beneficial Owners, or (iii) an error or delay relating thereto will not occur. The Depository Trust Company ( DTC ), New York, New York, will act as securities depository for the Bonds. The 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 certificate will be issued for the 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 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 1934. DTC holds and provides asset servicing for over 2 million issues of U.S. and non-u.s. equity issues, corporate and municipal debt issues, and money market instruments from over 85 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, in turn, is owned by a number of Direct Participants of DTC and Members of the National Securities Clearing Corporation, Government Securities Clearing Corporation, MBS Clearing Corporation, and Emerging Markets Clearing Corporation, (NSCC, GSCC, MBSCC, and EMCC, also subsidiaries of DTCC), as well as by the New York Stock Exchange, Inc., the American Stock Exchange LLC, and the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. 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 Standard & Poor s highest rating: AAA. The DTC Rules applicable to its Participants are on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission. More information about DTC can be found at www.dtcc.com. Purchases of Bonds under the DTC system must 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. 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 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 the Bonds, except in the event that use of the book-entry system for the Bonds is discontinued. F-1

To facilitate subsequent transfers, all Bonds deposited by Direct Participants with DTC are registered in the name of DTCs partnership nominee, Cede & Co., or such other name as may be requested by 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 effect any change in beneficial ownership. DTC has no knowledge 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 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. Redemption notices shall be sent to 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 issue to be redeemed. Neither DTC nor Cede & Co. (nor any other DTC nominee) will consent or vote with respect to the Bonds unless authorized by a Direct Participant in accordance with DTC s Procedures. Under its usual procedures, DTC mails an Omnibus Proxy to the 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 the 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 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 will be the responsibility of such Participant and not of DTC nor its nominee, the Agency or the Trustee, subject 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 nominee as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC) is the responsibility of the 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 providing its services as depository with respect to the Bonds at any time by giving reasonable notice to the Agency or the Trustee. Under such circumstances, in the event that a successor depository is not obtained, Bond certificates are required to be printed and delivered. The Agency may decide to discontinue use of the system of book-entry transfers through DTC (or a successor securities depository). In that event, Bond certificates will be printed and delivered in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture. F-2

APPENDIX H SPECIMEN OF BOND INSURANCE POLICY H-1

(THIS PAGE INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK)

Financial Guaranty Insurance Policy Ambac Assurance Corporation One State Street Plaza, 15th Floor New York, New York 10004 Telephone: (212) 668-0340 Obligor: Policy Number: Obligations: Premium: Ambac Assurance Corporation (Ambac), a Wisconsin stock insurance corporation, in consideration of the payment of the premium and subject to the terms of this Policy, hereby agrees to pay to The Bank of New York, as trustee, or its successor (the Insurance Trustee ), for the benefit of the Holders, that portion of the principal of and interest on the above-described obligations (the Obligations ) which shall become Due for Payment but shall be unpaid by reason of Nonpayment by the Obligor. Ambac will make such payments to the Insurance Trustee within one (1) business day following written notification to Ambac of Nonpayment. Upon a Holder s presentation and surrender to the Insurance Trustee of such unpaid Obligations or related coupons, uncanceled and in bearer form and free of any adverse claim, the Insurance Trustee will disburse to the Holder the amount of principal and interest which is then Due for Payment but is unpaid. Upon such disbursement, Ambac shall become the owner of the surrendered Obligations and/or coupons and shall be fully subrogated to all of the Holder s rights to payment thereon. In cases where the Obligations are issued in registered form, the Insurance Trustee shall disburse principal to a Holder only upon presentation and surrender to the Insurance Trustee of the unpaid Obligation, uncanceled and free of any adverse claim, together with an instrument of assignment, in form satisfactory to Ambac and the Insurance Trustee duly executed by the Holder or such Holder s duly authorized representative, so as to permit ownership of such Obligation to be registered in the name of Ambac or its nominee. The Insurance Trustee shall disburse interest to a Holder of a registered Obligation only upon presentation to the Insurance Trustee of proof that the claimant is the person entitled to the payment of interest on the Obligation and delivery to the Insurance Trustee of an instrument of assignment, in form satisfactory to Ambac and the Insurance Trustee, duly executed by the Holder or such Holder s duly authorized representative, transferring to Ambac all rights under such Obligation to receive the interest in respect of which the insurance disbursement was made. Ambac shall be subrogated to all of the Holders rights to payment on registered Obligations to the extent of any insurance disbursements so made. In the event that a trustee or paying agent for the Obligations has notice that any payment of principal of or interest on an Obligation which has become Due for Payment and which is made to a Holder by or on behalf of the Obligor has been deemed a preferential transfer and theretofore recovered from the Holder pursuant to the United States Bankruptcy Code in accordance with a final, nonappealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction, such Holder will be entitled to payment from Ambac to the extent of such recovery if sufficient funds are not otherwise available. As used herein, the term Holder means any person other than (i) the Obligor or (ii) any person whose obligations constitute the underlying security or source of payment for the Obligations who, at the time of Nonpayment, is the owner of an Obligation or of a coupon relating to an Obligation. As used herein, Due for Payment, when referring to the principal of Obligations, is when the scheduled maturity date or mandatory redemption date for the application of a required sinking fund installment has been reached and does not refer to any earlier date on which payment is due by reason of call for redemption (other than by application of required sinking fund installments), acceleration or other advancement of maturity; and, when referring to interest on the Obligations, is when the scheduled date for payment of interest has been reached. As used herein, Nonpayment means the failure of the Obligor to have provided sufficient funds to the trustee or paying agent for payment in full of all principal of and interest on the Obligations which are Due for Payment. This Policy is noncancelable. The premium on this Policy is not refundable for any reason, including payment of the Obligations prior to maturity. This Policy does not insure against loss of any prepayment or other acceleration payment which at any time may become due in respect of any Obligation, other than at the sole option of Ambac, nor against any risk other than Nonpayment. In witness whereof, Ambac has caused this Policy to be affixed with a facsimile of its corporate seal and to be signed by its duly authorized officers in facsimile to become effective as its original seal and signatures and binding upon Ambac by virtue of the countersignature of its duly authorized representative.
