The presentation of information, including tables of receipts from taxes and other sources, is intended to show recent historical information.

INVESTMENT CONSIDERATIONS General The Bonds, like all obligations of state and local governments, are subject to changes in value due to changes in the condition of the market for tax-exempt obligations or changes in the financial position of the County. It is possible under certain market conditions, or if the financial condition of the County should change, that the market price of the Bonds could be adversely affected. With regard to the risk involved in a downward revision or withdrawal of the rating on the Bonds shown on the Cover, see RATING herein. With regard to the risk involved in a loss of the exclusion from gross income for purposes of federal income taxation of interest payable on the Bonds, see TAX MATTERS herein. Prospective purchasers of the Bonds should consult their own tax advisors prior to any purchase of the Bonds as to the impact of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code ), upon their acquisition, holding or disposition of the Bonds. Prepayments of Principal The Bonds allow the County to prepay certain maturities of the principal of the Bonds without penalty. (See THE BONDS Redemption Provisions herein.) If such Bonds were to be prepaid before scheduled maturity, the investor would not receive the anticipated yield through the scheduled maturity date. In such a prepayment situation there is no guarantee that the investor could reinvest the proceeds and receive a comparable yield for the period remaining until the scheduled maturity of such Bonds. The investor, therefore, may receive a lower total return for the period beginning on the date of purchase through the scheduled date of maturity than anticipated.

Form; Payment of Principal and Interest The Bonds will be issued in fully registered form, will be dated the date of their delivery, will bear interest payable on June 1 and December 1 of each year, commencing June 1, 2014, at the rates set forth on the inside cover of the cover page hereof and will be payable as to principal on June 1 in the years set forth on the inside cover of the cover page hereof. The Bonds are authorized to be issued in denominations of $5,000 or any integral multiple thereof, provided that each Bond will be of a single maturity. Principal of the Bonds will be payable at maturity in lawful money of the United States of America, at the designated corporate trust office of The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., which has been designated as bond registrar, paying agent, and transfer agent for the Bonds (the Bond Registrar ). Interest on the Bonds will be payable to the person whose name appears as the registered holder thereof on the registration records maintained by the Bond Registrar, on the related Record Date (at the close of business on the 15th day next preceding that Interest Payment Date, unless such date falls on a non-business day, in which case the Record Date shall be the preceding business day) by check or wire transfer sent to such registered holder at the address of such registered holder as it appears on the registration records. No deductions will be made for exchange, collection, or service charges. Redemption Provisions Mandatory Sinking Fund Redemption The Bonds maturing on June 1, 2033 are subject to mandatory sinking fund redemption at a redemption price of 100% of the principal amount to be redeemed, plus accrued interest to the date of redemption, on June 1 in the years and in the respective principal amounts as follows: Year Principal Amount to be Redeemed 2032 $4,320,000 The remaining principal amount of such Bonds ($4,215,000) will be paid at stated maturity on June 1, 2033. Optional Redemption The Bonds maturing after June 1, 2023 are subject to redemption at the option of the County, either in whole or in part, in such order as the County shall determine, on any date on or after December 1, 2023 at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount redeemed plus, in each case, accrued interest to the dated fixed for redemption. Redemption Procedures When partial redemption of any Bonds is authorized, the Bond Registrar will select the Bonds or portions thereof by lot within a maturity in such manner as the Bond Registrar may determine, provided, however, that the portion of any Bond so selected will be in the amount of $5,000 or an integral multiple thereof. The notice of the call for redemption of Bonds is required to identify (i) by designation, letters, numbers or other distinguishing marks the Bonds or portions thereof to be redeemed, (ii) the redemption price to be paid, (iii) the date fixed for redemption, and (iv) the place or places where the amounts due 5

upon redemption are payable. From and after the specified redemption date, and provided that funds are on hand and available for the payment of interest due as of the redemption date, interest on the Bonds (or portions thereof) called for redemption will cease to accrue. Such notice is required to be sent by first class mail, postage prepaid, to the registered holder or holders of the Bonds to be redeemed, mailed to the address shown in the Bond registration not less than 30 days prior to the redemption date. Failure to receive such notice or any defect therein will not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any Bond. ESTIMATED SOURCES AND USES OF FUNDS The proceeds of the Bonds will be applied as follows: Sources Par value of the Bonds $92,690,000.00 Net original issue premium 10,654,549.80 Total Sources $103,344,549.80 Uses Deposit to Escrow Fund (to defease the Series 2007 $50,613,959.20 Bonds and the Series 2005 Bonds) Deposit to Bond Retirement Fund (to refund the 52,082,026.47 Series 2010A Bonds and Series 2010-2B Bonds) Deposit to Bond Retirement Fund (Premium to the County) 21,817.33 Costs of Issuance * 626,746.80 Total Uses $103,344,549.80 * Includes Underwriters compensation, financial advisor fees, rating fees, legal fees, registrar fees, verification agent fees, printing and distribution costs, and miscellaneous expenses. Payment of Debt Service SECURITY AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS General Obligation Security. The Bonds will be unvoted general obligation debt of the County. The basic security for the unvoted general obligation debt of the County is the County s ability to levy an ad valorem tax on real and personal property in the County subject to ad valorem taxation within the tenmill limitation imposed by Ohio law. This tax must be sufficient in amount to pay (to the extent not paid from other sources described below) the debt service on the unvoted general obligation bonds of the County and unvoted general obligation bonds in anticipation of which notes of the County are outstanding as such debt service becomes due. For a description of certain information relating to the levy and collection of ad valorem taxes by the County, see COUNTY TAX BASE Ad Valorem Taxes and Assessed Valuation in APPENDIX A to this Official Statement. 6

Although the Bonds are secured as described above, the County anticipates that debt service on the Bonds will be paid from the County s general revenues, and does not expect to levy or collect an ad valorem property tax for such payment. In addition to the right of individual bondholders to sue upon their particular Bonds, State law authorizes the holders of not less than 10% in principal amount of the Bonds to bring mandamus or other actions to enforce all contractual or other rights of the bondholders, including the right to require the County to levy, collect and apply the taxes to pay debt service on the Bonds, and in the case of any default in payment of debt service on the Bonds to bring an action to require the County to account as if it were the trustee of an express trust for the bondholders or to enjoin any acts that may be unlawful or in violation of bondholder rights. UNDERWRITING Stifel, Nicolaus & Company, Incorporated, as senior manager, and on behalf of itself and Wells Fargo Securities, Fifth Third Securities, Inc., PNC Capital Markets LLC, and Siebert Brandford Shank & Co., LLC (collectively, the Underwriters ) has agreed, pursuant to a Bond Purchase Agreement with the County, dated February 11, 2014 (the Purchase Agreement ), to purchase all, but not less than all, of the Bonds at a purchase price of $102,911,879.00 (the Purchase Price ), which is equal to the par amount of the Bonds ($92,690,000.00), plus net original issue premium ($10,654,549.80), less Underwriters discount ($432,670.80). The Underwriters will retain $194,076.00 from the Purchase Price to pay certain costs of issuance of the Bonds on behalf of the County, including rating fees, printing and distribution costs, legal fees, financial advisor fees, registrar fees, verification agent fees, and other miscellaneous expenses. The Underwriters are purchasing the Bonds as originally issued for purpose of resale. The Underwriters reserve the right to join with dealers and other underwriters in offering the Bonds to the public. The Underwriters may offer and sell the Bonds to certain dealers (including dealer banks and dealers depositing the Bonds into unit investment trusts, certain of which may be sponsored or managed by the Underwriter) and others at prices lower than the public offering prices noted on the inside cover page hereof. The initial offering prices of the Bonds may be changed, from time to time, by the Underwriter. The obligation of the Underwriters to accept delivery of the Bonds is subject to the various conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement. The Underwriters are obligated to purchase all of the Bonds if any of the Bonds are purchased. Wells Fargo Securities is the trade name for certain securities-related capital markets and investment banking services of Wells Fargo & Company and its subsidiaries, including Wells Fargo Bank, National Association. Wells Fargo Bank, National Association ("WFBNA"), one of the underwriters of the Bonds, has entered into an agreement (the "Distribution Agreement") with its affiliate, Wells Fargo Advisors, LLC ("WFA"), for the distribution of certain municipal securities offerings, including the Bonds. Pursuant to the Distribution Agreement, WFBNA will share a portion of its underwriting or remarketing agent compensation, as applicable, with respect to the Bonds with WFA. WFBNA also utilizes the distribution capabilities of its affiliates, Wells Fargo Securities, LLC ( WFSLLC ) and Wells Fargo Institutional Securities, LLC ( WFIS ), for the distribution of municipal securities offerings, including the Bonds. In connection with utilizing the distribution capabilities of WFSLLC, WFBNA pays a portion of WFSLLC s 7

expenses based on its municipal securities transactions. WFBNA, WFSLLC, WFIS, and WFA are each wholly-owned subsidiaries of Wells Fargo & Company. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Management s Discussion and Analysis, Basic Financial Statements, Notes to the Financial Statements, and Required Supplemental Information of the County for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012 appear in APPENDIX B to this Official Statement. The Basic Financial Statements of the County as of and for the year ended December 31, 2012, included in APPENDIX B to this Official Statement have been audited by the Auditor of the State of Ohio, as stated in their report appearing in APPENDIX B. RATINGS As noted on the cover page, the County has applied for a rating of the Bonds from Moody s Investors Service, Inc. and Standard & Poor s Ratings Services, a division of The McGraw Hill Companies, Inc., which have rated the Bonds Aaa and AAA, respectively. Each such rating reflects only the views of such rating agency. Any explanation of the significance of the rating may only be obtained from such rating agency at Moody s Investors Service, Inc., 7 World Trade Center, 250 Greenwich Street, New York, New York 10007, telephone (212) 553-0300, and Standard & Poor s Ratings Services, a division of The McGraw Hill Companies, Inc., 55 Water Street, New York, New York 10041, telephone (212) 438-2000, respectively. The County furnished to the rating agencies certain information and materials, some of which may not have been included in this Official Statement, relating to the Bonds and the County. Generally, rating agencies base their ratings on such information and materials, as well as investigation, studies and assumptions by the rating agencies. Such ratings are not recommendations to buy, sell or hold the Bonds. There can be no assurance that a rating, when assigned, will continue for any given period of time or that it will not be lowered or withdrawn entirely by a rating agency if, in its judgment, circumstances so warrant. In addition, the County currently expects to provide to the rating agencies (but assumes no obligation to furnish to the Underwriters or the holders of the Bonds,) from time to time further information and materials that it or they may request. The County does not, however, obligate itself hereby to furnish such information and materials, and may issue unrated bonds and notes from time to time. Failure by the County to furnish such information and materials, or the issuance of unrated bonds or notes, may result in the suspension or withdrawal of a rating agency s rating on the Bonds. Any lowering, suspension or withdrawal of such ratings may have an adverse effect on the marketability or market price of the Bonds. FINANCIAL ADVISOR The County has retained the services of PRISM Municipal Advisors, LLC, Powell, Ohio (the Financial Advisor ) to advise the County concerning the terms, timing of sale, and other factors related to the sale of the Bonds. The Financial Advisor has not audited, authenticated or otherwise verified the information in this Official Statement, or other information available to the County with respect to appropriateness, accuracy and completeness of disclosure of that information, and no guaranty, warranty or other representation is made by the Financial Advisor respecting accuracy and completeness of that information or any other matter related to that information. 8

VERIFICATION OF ARITHMETICAL AND MATHEMATICAL COMPUTATIONS Upon delivery of the Bonds, Causey Demgen & Moore P.C., certified public accountants (the Verification Agent ), will deliver reports on the arithmetical accuracy of certain computations contained in schedules provided to them by the Underwriters on behalf of the County relating to the computation of forecasted receipts of principal and interest on the securities held in the Escrow Fund to refund the Series 2005 Bonds and the Series 2007 Bonds. Such computations will be based solely on assumptions and information supplied by the Underwriters on behalf of the County, and the Verification Agent has restricted its procedures to examining the arithmetical accuracy of certain computations and has not made any study or evaluation of the assumptions and information on which such computations are based. Accordingly, the Verification Agent has not expressed an opinion on the data used, the reasonableness of the assumptions, or the ability to achieve the forecasted outcome. LEGAL MATTERS Legal matters incident to the issuance of the Bonds and with regard to the excludability of the interest on the Bonds from gross income for federal income tax purposes (see TAX MATTERS herein) are subject to the approving opinion of Bricker & Eckler LLP, Bond Counsel to the County. Certain legal matters will be passed upon for the Underwriters by their counsel, Peck, Shaffer & Williams LLP, Columbus, Ohio. A signed copy of the approving opinion of Bond Counsel will be delivered to the Underwriters at the time of original delivery. Assuming no change in applicable law prior to the date of delivery of such opinion, the opinion will be substantially in the form attached hereto as APPENDIX E. The opinion will speak only as of its date, and subsequent distribution of it by recirculation of the Official Statement or otherwise shall create no implication that Bond Counsel has reviewed or expresses any opinion concerning any of the matters referred to in the opinion subsequent to the date thereof. While Bond Counsel has participated in the preparation of portions of this Official Statement, it has not been engaged to confirm or verify, and expresses and will express no opinion as to the accuracy, completeness or fairness of any of the statements in this Official Statement, including its appendices (other than APPENDIX E), or in any other reports, financial information, offering or disclosure documents or other information pertaining to the County or the Bonds that may be prepared or made available by the County or others to the holders of the Bonds or others. LITIGATION To the knowledge of the appropriate officials of the County, no litigation or administrative action or proceeding is pending or threatened restraining or enjoining, or seeking to restrain or enjoin, the issuance and delivery of the Bonds, or the levy and collection of taxes to pay the debt service on the Bonds, or contesting or questioning the proceedings and authority under which the Bonds are to be authorized and are to be issued, sold, executed or delivered, or the validity of the Bonds. A no-litigation certificate to such effect will be delivered to the Underwriters at the time of original delivery of the Bonds to the Underwriter. In common with other counties, the County from time to time receives notices of claims for money damages. In the opinion of County officials, any such claims outstanding, regardless of their merit, are not in excess of the County s insurance coverage. The County is a party to various legal proceedings seeking damages or injunctive relief and generally incidental to its operations. These proceedings are unrelated to the Bonds or the security 9

therefor. The ultimate disposition of such proceedings is not presently determinable, but will not, in the opinion of the County officials, have a material adverse effect on the Bonds or the security therefor. TAX MATTERS In the opinion of Bricker & Eckler LLP, Bond Counsel, under existing law, interest on the Bonds (the Tax-Exempt Bonds ) is excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes under Section 103(a) of the Code and is not treated as an item of tax preference under Section 57 of the Code for purposes of the alternative minimum tax imposed on individuals and corporations; it should be noted, however, that for the purpose of computing the alternative minimum tax imposed on corporations (as defined for federal income tax purposes), such interest on the Tax-Exempt Bonds is taken into account in determining adjusted current earnings. Further, the Tax-Exempt Bonds are not private activity bonds as defined in Section 141(a) of the Code. Interest on the Tax-Exempt Bonds, the transfer thereof, and any profit made on their sale, exchange or other disposition, are exempt from the Ohio personal income tax, the Ohio commercial activity tax, the net income base of the Ohio corporate franchise tax, and municipal, school district, and joint economic development district income taxes in Ohio. The County has not designated the Tax-Exempt Bonds as qualified tax exempt obligations as defined in Section 265(b)(3) of the Code. Bond Counsel will express no opinion and make no representation regarding other federal, state or local income tax consequences resulting from the receipt or accrual of interest on the Tax-Exempt Bonds. The opinion on tax matters will be based on and will assume the accuracy of certain representations and certifications made by the County and others, and the compliance with certain covenants of the County, to be contained in the transcript of proceedings and which are intended to evidence and assure the foregoing, including that the Tax-Exempt Bonds are and will remain obligations the interest on which is excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes. Bond Counsel has not and will not independently verify the accuracy of such certifications and representations. The Code prescribes a number of qualifications and conditions for the interest on state and local government obligations to be and remain excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes some of which, including provisions for the rebate by the County of certain investment earnings to the federal government, require future or continued compliance after issuance of the obligations in order for the interest to be and continue to be so excluded from the date of issuance. Noncompliance with these requirements could cause the interest on the Tax-Exempt Bonds to be included in gross income for federal income tax purposes and thus to be subject to regular federal income tax retroactively to the date of their issuance. The County covenants in the Bond Legislation to take such actions that may be required of it for the interest on the Tax-Exempt Bonds to be and remain excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes, and not to take any actions which would adversely affect that exclusion. Under the Code, interest on the Tax-Exempt Bonds may be subject to a branch profits tax imposed on certain foreign corporations doing business in the United States of America, and a tax imposed on excess net passive income of certain S corporations. Under the Code, the exclusion of interest from gross income for federal income tax purposes can have certain adverse federal income tax consequences on items of income or deductions for certain taxpayers, including among them financial institutions, certain insurance companies, recipients of Social Security and Railroad Retirement benefits, and those that are deemed to incur or continue indebtedness to acquire or carry tax-exempt obligations and individuals otherwise eligible for the earned income tax credit. The applicability and extent of these or other tax consequences will depend upon the particular tax status or other items of income and 10

expenses of the owners of the Tax-Exempt Bonds. Bond Counsel will express no opinion and make no representation regarding such consequences. From time to time, legislative proposals are pending in the United States Congress that would, if enacted, alter or amend one or more of the federal tax matters referred to above in certain respects or would adversely affect the market value of the Bonds. Court proceedings may also be filed, the outcome of which could modify the tax treatment of obligations such as the Bonds. There can be no assurance that legislation enacted or proposed, or actions by a court, after the date of issuance of the Bonds will not have an adverse effect on the tax status of interest or other income on the Bonds or the market value or marketability of the Bonds. Prospective purchasers of the Bonds should consult their own tax advisers regarding pending or proposed federal and state tax legislation and court proceedings, as to all of which Bond Counsel expresses no opinion. Original Issue Discount Certain of the Bonds were sold to the public at a price of less than 100% of their face amount (the Discount Bonds ). The following information, which has not been included in the opinion of Bond Counsel, may be helpful to prospective purchasers of the Discount Bonds. Under present federal income tax law, original issue discount (i.e., the difference between the issue price, as hereinafter defined, of a Discount Bond and the stated redemption price at maturity of such Discount Bond), is treated as accruing ( accreted ) over the term of such Discount Bond. The issue price is the price at which a substantial amount of the Discount Bonds are sold to the public (excluding bond house, brokers or similar persons acting in the capacity of underwriters or wholesalers). In general, the amount of original issue discount which is to be accreted in each accretion period will equal (i) the issue price of that Discount Bond, increased by the amount of original issue discount which has been accreted in all prior accretion periods, multiplied by (ii) the initial offering yield of that Discount Bond reflected on the inside cover page of this Official Statement (determined on the basis of compounding at the close of each accretion period and properly adjusted for the length of the accretion period), minus, with respect to the Bonds, interest actually paid during such accretion period. For these purposes, accretion period means a six-month period (or shorter period from the date the Discount Bond was issued) which ends on a day in the calendar year corresponding to the maturity date of that Discount Bond or the date six months before such maturity date. The amount of original issue discount so accreted in a particular accretion period will be considered to accrete ratably on each day of the accretion period. With respect to any Tax-Exempt Bonds that are Discount Bonds ( Tax-Exempt Discount Bonds ), such accreted amount is used for purposes of determining the adjusted basis for federal income tax purposes of the holder of such Tax-Exempt Discount Bond but is not included in such holder s gross income for federal income tax purposes. Consequently, a purchaser who buys a Tax-Exempt Discount Bond in the initial offering at the issue price and holds such Tax-Exempt Discount Bond to its maturity would not realize any gain or loss for federal income tax purposes upon payment of the stated redemption price of that Tax-Exempt Discount Bond at maturity. Amortizable Bond Premium Certain of the Bonds were sold at issue prices greater than the principal amount payable at maturity or earlier call date (the Premium Bonds ). The following information, which has not been included in the opinion of Bond Counsel, may be helpful to prospective purchasers of the Premium Bonds. 11

Premium Bonds will be considered to be issuable with amortizable bond premium (the Bond Premium ). A taxpayer who acquires a Premium Bond in the initial public offering will be required to adjust his or her basis in the Premium Bond downward as a result of the amortization of the Bond Premium, pursuant to Section 1016(a)(5) of the Code. The amount of amortizable Bond Premium will be computed on the basis of the taxpayer s yield to maturity with compounding at the end of each accrual period. Rules for determining (i) the amount of amortizable Bond Premium and (ii) the amount amortizable in a particular year are set forth at Section 171(b) of the Code. With respect to any Tax-Exempt Bonds that are Premium Bonds ( Tax-Exempt Premium Bonds ), no income tax deduction for the amount of amortizable Bond Premium will be allowed to a holder pursuant in Section 171(a)(2) of the Code, but such holder may reduce their basis in the Tax- Exempt Bonds by the amount of such amortizable Bond Premium. The amortization of Bond Premium may be taken into account as a reduction in the amount of tax-exempt income for purposes of determining other tax consequences of owning the Tax-Exempt Premium Bonds. A purchaser of a Tax-Exempt Premium Bond at its issue price in the initial public offering who holds that Premium Bond to maturity will realize no gain or loss upon the retirement of such Premium Bond. PROSPECTIVE PURCHASERS OF THE DISCOUNT OR PREMIUM BONDS SHOULD CONSULT THEIR OWN TAX ADVISORS AS TO THE TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE PURCHASE, SALE, TRANSFER, REDEMPTION, PAYMENT, OR OTHER DISPOSITION OF THE DISCOUNT OR PREMIUM BONDS, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, MODIFICATIONS TO THE METHOD FOR ACCRETING ORIGINAL ISSUE DISCOUNT OR AMORTIZING PREMIUM FOR CERTAIN SUBSEQUENT PURCHASERS, AND INCLUDING THE EFFECT OF ANY APPLICABLE STATE OR LOCAL INCOME TAX LAWS. BOOK-ENTRY ONLY SYSTEM The information in this section concerning The Depository Trust Company ( DTC ) and DTC s book-entry only system has been obtained from DTC and the County takes no responsibility for the completeness or accuracy thereof. The County cannot and does not give any assurances that DTC, Direct Participants or Indirect Participants will distribute to the Beneficial Owners (a) payments of interest, principal, or premium, if any, with respect to the Bonds, (b) certificates representing ownership interest in or other confirmation or ownership interest in the Bonds, or (c) redemption or other notices sent to DTC or Cede & Co., its partnership nominee, as the registered owner of the Bonds, or that they will so do on a timely basis or that DTC, Direct Participants or Indirect Participants will act in the manner described in this Official Statement. The current Rules applicable to DTC are on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission and the current Procedures of DTC to be followed in dealing with DTC Participants are on file with DTC. DTC will act as securities depository for the Bonds. The Securities will be issued as fullyregistered 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 each maturity of the Bonds, each in the aggregate principal amount of such maturity, and will be deposited with DTC. DTC, the world s largest securities depository, is a limited-purpose trust company organized under the 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 3.5 million issues of U.S. and non-u.s. equity issues, corporate and municipal debt issues, and money market instruments from over 100 countries that DTC s participants ( Direct Participants ) deposit with 12

DTC. DTC also facilitates the post-trade settlement among Direct Participants of sales and other securities transactions in deposited securities, through electronic computerized book-entry transfers and pledges between Direct Participants accounts. This eliminates the need for physical movement of securities certificates. Direct Participants include both U.S. and non-u.s. securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, clearing corporations, and certain other organizations. DTC is a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation ( DTCC ). DTCC is the holding company for DTC, National Securities Clearing Corporation and Fixed Income Clearing Corporation, all of which are registered clearing agencies. DTCC is owned by the users of its regulated subsidiaries. Access to the DTC system is also available to others such as both U.S. and non-u.s. securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, and clearing corporations that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a Direct Participant, either directly or indirectly ( Indirect Participants ). DTC has a rating of AA+ from Standard & Poor s. 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 Securities 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 Security ( 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. To facilitate subsequent transfers, all Securities deposited by Direct Participants with DTC are registered in the name of DTC s partnership nominee, Cede & Co., or such other name as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. The deposit of Securities 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 Securities are credited, which may or may not be the Beneficial Owners. The Direct and Indirect Participants will remain responsible for keeping account of their holdings on behalf of their customers. Conveyance of notices and other communications by DTC to Direct Participants, by Direct Participants to Indirect Participants, and by Direct Participants and Indirect Participants to Beneficial Owners will be governed by arrangements among them, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time to time. Beneficial Owners of Securities may wish to take certain steps to augment the transmission to them of notices of significant events with respect to the Bonds, such as redemptions, tenders, defaults, and proposed amendments to the Bonds. For example, Beneficial Owners of Securities may wish to ascertain that the nominee holding the Bonds for their benefit has agreed to obtain and transmit notices to Beneficial Owners. In the alternative, Beneficial Owners may wish to provide their names and addresses to the Bond Registrar and request that copies of the notices be provided directly to them. Redemption notices shall be sent to DTC. If less than all of the Bonds within an issue are being redeemed, DTC s practice is to determine by lot the amount of the interest of each Direct Participant in such issue to be redeemed. Neither DTC nor Cede & Co. (nor any other DTC nominee) will consent or vote with respect to the Bonds unless authorized by a Direct Participant in accordance with DTC s MMI procedures. Under its 13

usual procedures, DTC mails an Omnibus Proxy to the County 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). Redemption proceeds, distributions and dividend 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 County or the Bond Registrar, 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, the Bond Registrar, or the County, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time to time. Payment of redemption proceeds, distributions and dividend payments to Cede & Co. (or such other nominee as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC) is the responsibility of the County or the Bond Registrar, 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. Revision of Book-Entry Only System - Replacement Bonds The Bond Legislation provides for issuance of fully registered Bonds (the Replacement Bonds ) directly to owners other than DTC or its nominee only if DTC determines not to continue to act as security depository of the Bonds. In such event, the County may in its discretion establish a securities depository/book-entry relationship with another qualified securities depository. If the County does not or is unable to do so, and after appropriate notice to DTC, the County s Bond Registrar will authenticate and deliver fully registered Replacement Bonds, in denominations of $5,000 or any multiple thereof, to or at the direction of and, if the event is not the result of County action or inaction, at the expense (including printing costs) of, any persons requesting such issuance. Replacement Bonds may be transferred, registered and assigned only in the registration books of the County s Bond Registrar. CONTINUING DISCLOSURE The County has agreed for the benefit of the holders and Beneficial Owners of the Bonds to provide annual financial information and notices of certain events. Concurrently with the delivery of the Bonds, the County will deliver a certificate of the County Administrator, in the form attached hereto as APPENDIX C, describing the nature of the information to be provided, the persons and entities to whom such information will be provided and the times at which such information will be provided (the Continuing Disclosure Certificate ). The County s failure to comply with any undertaking contained in the Continuing Disclosure Certificate will not constitute an event of default under the Bonds. The County has filed the annual information required by its various continuing disclosure undertakings, but in 2009 and in 2012, the County filed the annual information later than the required filing date. The County has put processes in place to assure future timely filings. The Continuing Disclosure Certificate is being executed by the County to assist the Underwriters in complying with Rule 15c2-12(b)(5) adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Specifically, the County will agree to provide the Annual Report (as defined in the Continuing Disclosure Certificate) to the Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board (the MSRB ) in an electronic format, if required, and to provide notice of the enumerated events to the MSRB in an electronic format, if required. 14

APPENDIX A THE COUNTY OF FRANKLIN, OHIO GENERAL INFORMATION Formed in 1803, the County is an independent political subdivision of the State and operates subject to the provisions of the Ohio Constitution and various sections of the Revised Code. The County, encompassing approximately 543 square miles, is located in central Ohio. The City of Columbus (the City ) is the county seat of the County, the capital of the State, and the largest municipality in the County. The County is the central county in the Columbus, Ohio Metropolitan Statistical Area (the Columbus MSA ) which includes the County as well as Delaware, Fairfield, Licking, Madison, Morrow, Pickaway, and Union Counties. * The 2010 Census reported the population of the County to be 1,163,414 people and the population of the City to be 787,033 people. According to the Mid-Ohio Regional Planning Commission ( MORPC ), the County s population as of December 31, 2013 was estimated to be 1,183,592 people, while the City s population as of the same date was estimated to be 802,912. In addition to the City, there are 15 other cities, 17 townships, and 10 villages that are partially or fully located in the County. The County is home to nine colleges and universities, including The Ohio State University, which is ranked as one of the nation s largest universities according to student enrollment figures. More than 50% of people living in the United States live within 500 miles of the County. Four airports connect the County with the rest of the nation; approximately 80% of the entire population of the United States is within a 90 minute flight from the County. The cities, villages and townships, together with the various special districts and other governmental entities operating in the County, are responsible for many local governmental services and make significant expenditures to provide such services to County residents. The County, nonetheless, has significant responsibilities in the areas of general government, justice and public safety, road and bridge repair, and social and human services. See COUNTY SERVICES in this APPENDIX A. [Balance of Page Intentionally Left Blank] * A Metropolitan Statistical Area is defined by the United States Office of Management and Budget, and is composed of a central city (Columbus) and adjacent areas that have a high degree of social and economic integration with the central city.

Recent Budgetary Developments In 2005, the County enacted a permanent 1/4 of one cent increase in the sales and use tax to support operations and a temporary 1/4 of one cent increase in the sales and use tax that expired December 31, 2007 in order to rebuild the General Fund cash reserves. The County s recent operating and capital budget has been built to fit within a long-term financial forecast and meet the County s Fiscal Sustainability policy standards as set forth in Commissioner Resolution Number 928-08. The resolution further enforced the administrative focus on maintaining the County s fiscal security, stability, and sustainability; ability to meet critical needs in difficult economic times; excellent credit ratings; and necessary and essential programs and service delivery. Following best practice standards, the County keeps cash in reserve to back its ability to deliver vital services and weather negative economic cycles. The County has a policy to maintain cash reserves at no less than the average level for triple-a rated counties as published by the major rating agencies, which is estimated to be 36% of revenues on an accrual basis based on the most recent reports from the rating agencies. These levels exceed the minimum reserve levels recommended by the Government Finance Officers Association ( GFOA ). GFOA recommends reserve levels of no less than two months (17%) of regular general fund operating revenues or expenditures. In recent years, the County has utilized its unobligated General Fund cash balances to mitigate the impact of state and federal funding reductions on capital projects and discretionary community grants. The last recession limited revenues both at the state and federal level, so the County used its unobligated cash balances to preserve services and support capital projects. Since 2005, the County s practice has been to maintain a General Fund cash reserve at or above the average General Fund cash reserves maintained by other counties across the nation that have the highest rating from Moody s and S&P, expressed in terms of both percent of revenues and percent of expenditures. The County s General Fund cash reserve has been maintained at or above targeted levels during the entire recessionary cycle, and remains above that level today. The County also has conservative debt guidelines, limiting General Fund debt service transfers in each year to no more than 5% of the total resources in the General Fund. Following adoption of the 2013 budget, the Board of County Commissioners of the County (the Board ) asked the County Administrator to review the County s long-term sustainable fiscal condition. In response, the County Administrator proposed that a County Budget and Economic Advisory Panel be created to support such a review. The Franklin County Budget and Economic Advisory Panel (the Panel ) was created in February 2013 to review the County s fiscal condition, determine whether a structural imbalance exists between the County s annual operating revenues and expenditures, and provide recommendations that would ensure that the County s services, financial stability, and Triple-A credit ratings are maintained. From February 2013 to July 2013, the Panel held bi-weekly meetings and worked closely with County staff to conduct an examination of the County s General Fund finances. The Panel concluded that the County was well managed. The members agreed that the Board was correct to place a high priority on maintaining the County s Triple-A credit ratings and, in order to do so, must maintain an adequate cash reserve. The Panel found that despite being well managed, the County faced a projected structural deficit. Solving the projected structural deficit required the County to consider both targeted spending reductions and revenue increases from selected revenue sources. The Panel recognized that an increase in either the property tax or in the sales tax was a viable option to meet such need and protect the County s Triple-A credit ratings if the Board determined that additional investment was warranted for major capital needs, economic development, community partnerships, and/or restoration of budget cuts previously implemented. A-3

Based on the Panel s recommendations, the Board identified that Franklin County the fastest growing County in the state had increasing needs and remained committed to ensuring the economic growth and security of the County. Facing the reality of declining revenue and trying to meet the needs of a growing community, the Board held three separate public hearings during the month of September to discuss a change to the County s Sales and Use Tax rate. In September 2013, the Board unanimously approved a permanent increase in the County s sales tax rate by one quarter of one percent. The Board also acted to temporarily increase the rate by one quarter of one percent, which will expire on December 31, 2018. The new rate will apply to all retail sales in the County beginning January 1, 2014. [Balance of Page Intentionally Left Blank] A-4

County Governance The organizational chart for the County s government appears below. A-5

Board of County Commissioners A three-member Board of County Commissioners, elected at large in even-numbered years for four-year overlapping terms, is the primary legislative and executive body of the County. The Board currently meets regularly on Tuesdays of each week. The general responsibilities of the Board are centered in three areas: financial management, management of most County facilities, and personnel administration. Financial Management: The Board is responsible for providing and managing the funds used to support the various County activities. The Board exercises its legislative powers in budgeting, appropriating, levying taxes, issuing bonds, and letting contracts for public works and services to provide this financial management. The County s sales tax, one of the permissive taxes discussed below, was the largest source of General Fund revenues for the County in 2012, accounting for about $148.2 million in revenues. Fees and charges for services totaling $54.6 million accounted for the next largest portion of County General Fund revenues. Real property and other taxes and intergovernmental revenue accounted for the third and fourth largest General Fund revenue sources, respectively, of the County. The County has four permissive tax revenue sources available to it, one of which it has not utilized. State law authorizes counties to levy such permissive taxes without a vote of the people but subject to referendum. In addition to the sales tax, the County currently has in effect a motor vehicle license tax and a real property transfer tax. The real property transfer tax is levied at the rate of $1.00 per $1,000 in property transferred, which is in addition to the statutorily-imposed transfer fee of $1.00 per $1,000 in property transferred. The County does not impose a utility service permissive tax, which may be levied at a rate not to exceed two percent of utility service charges. Management of Most County Facilities: Among those facilities for which the Board has certain responsibilities are various courthouses, correctional and administrative facilities and general County government facilities. Personnel and Benefit Plan Administration: Personnel costs, including personal services and fringe benefits, account for the largest share of the County s General Fund expenditures. The Board is responsible for the administration and management of the County s group medical, life, dental, vision, and wellness benefit plans, as well as for other centralized human resource services including recruitment and hiring, classification and compensation, in-service training, and personnel administration for all agencies whose employees are appointed by the Board. In addition, there are several elected officials, independent boards and commissions that administer various services within the County. Some of the boards and commissions are appointed in their entirety by the Board and are subject to complete fiscal control by the Board. Others have no members appointed by the Board and are completely independent of fiscal control by the Board. There are also instances in which the Board does not have appointment powers but does have extensive fiscal responsibilities. For example, the Board has extensive financing, funding, and budgeting responsibilities for the Board of Elections. Performance Budgeting: In 2000, the County began implementing a Managing for Results (MFR) initiative and took the first step in reaching a larger goal to run County government more like a business by focusing on customer service, accountability and results. County agencies and offices developed strategic business plans and reported performance data on the operations of their programs. A-6

In 2011, the County began implementing the Budgeting for Policy Results and Outcomes (BPRO) initiative. The County revised its core strategic principles and goals, identified key indicators of success measures for the goals, and refined its strategies to attain the goals. The strategic business plan and performance measurement systems to be used by county agencies and offices were also revised. These important steps are part of a multi-year effort that is designed to better align and link program outcomes to county goals. The County continues to utilize and improve upon this framework of outcome-based budgeting and policy goal-centered management. The 2014 Recommended Budget marks the first time in which all of the County s agencies, offices, and courts have participated in the County s Budgeting for Policy Results and Outcomes initiative. Members of the Board President Marilyn Brown: Elected in November 2006, Commissioner Marilyn Brown has had a long career in public service. She served for seven years as the Associate Director for a regional council of suburban governments and school districts created to break down segregated housing patterns in Greater Cleveland s eastern suburbs. Commissioner Brown later served as the Public Affairs Director for MORPC, where she is now a Board Member and former Board Chair, working as part of a diverse team involved in regional planning and economic and community development for the Central Ohio area. She also served as Commission President in 2008 and 2011, during which time the County broke ground on its award-winning baseball stadium, Huntington Park, and its new courthouse as well as provided the initial steps towards building a new animal care center. Immediately upon being elected Commissioner, Brown set to work on those same fronts, realizing that economic development, good jobs, and workforce readiness, coupled with a strong safety net, a solid foundation for our youth, and a high quality of life for all residents were the cornerstones on which the County was built, and on which it continues to grow. Commissioner Brown believes that obtaining and maintaining a good job with fair pay and benefits is the best way to escape and prevent poverty, and that all residents of Franklin County should have the opportunity to work and earn a living wage on which to support themselves and their families. She is committed to advancing policies that encourage and incentivize economic development which lead to not only job creation and retention, but to filling those jobs with Franklin County residents. Commissioner Brown has worked closely with the County's Department of Economic Development, County and Township planning boards, and business organizations such as chambers of commerce, MORPC and others to create new jobs and retain existing jobs here in Franklin County. Brown supports initiatives such as developing business around the Intermodal at Rickenbacker, investing in new technologies at the TechColumbus incubators, providing microloans to entrepreneurs, and finding innovative energy solutions.

Her service in NACo also includes her role as Vice Chair of the Green Government Advisory Board, and as a member since 2007, on the Energy, Environment and Land Use Policy Steering Committee, as Chair of the Energy Subcommittee. Most recently, in 2013, Commissioner Brooks accepted a White House appointment to President Obama's Climate Preparedness and Resilience Task Force where she works with 25 other governors, mayors, county officials, and tribal leaders from throughout the nation to provide climate change preparedness and resiliency recommendations to the President. On the state level she serves on the Board of Trustees for the County Commissioners Association of Ohio and was its President in 2010. Ohio House Speaker William Batchelder and Ohio Representative Vernon Sykes named Commissioner Brooks in 2012 to the Ohio Constitutional Modernization Commission, and she was recently re-appointed to serve another term through 2015.

At the state level, she has served in the past as Chief Counsel for the Ohio Department of Liquor Control and Assistant Director of the Department of Administrative Services. In the early 1990s, the Ohio State Bar Association tapped Commissioner Brooks as its representative on Attorney General Lee Fisher s Open Government Task Force. In her previous private practice, Commissioner Brooks served as Special Counsel to the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) and the Ohio Attorney General for The Ohio State University, and represented individuals, corporations, and non-profit entities. Commissioner John O Grady: Elected to the Franklin County Board of Commissioners in November 2008, Commissioner O Grady took office in January of 2009, and in both 2010 and 2013, was elected by his fellow Commissioners to a one-year term as Board President.

In February 2011, O Grady led the delegation from Franklin County, Columbus 2020, Columbus Sister Cities International, and The Ohio State University on a trade mission to India to promote foreign direct investment in Central Ohio.

Retirement Plans and Post-Employment Benefits Employees, present and retired, of the County are covered under a statewide public retirement (including disability retirement) system, the Ohio Public Employees Retirement System ( OPERS ). Teachers at the Board of Developmental Disabilities are covered under a statewide public retirement system, State Teachers Retirement System of Ohio ( STRS Ohio ). Both plans are cost sharing, multipleemployer plans, created by and operated pursuant to Ohio law. The General Assembly could amend the format of the funds, and revise contribution rates to be made by the County, and revise benefits or benefit levels. Health care coverage is not statutorily guaranteed. In September 2012, the law providing for pension and retirement benefits to eligible employees under the OPERS program was amended. These amendments include increasing the retirement eligibility age and years of service requirements of employees, restricting cost of living increases, and increasing employee contribution rates. As of November 15, 2013, 6,159 County employees were covered by OPERS. Most of these employees contribute at a rate of 10.00% of earnable salary or compensation, and the County contributes 14.00% of the same base. Law enforcement employees contribute at a rate of 12.60% and the County contributes 18.10% of the same base. OPERS also provides post-retirement health care coverage to qualifying members of both its Traditional Pension and its Combined plans. Members of its Member-Directed Plan do not qualify for post-employment health care coverage. In order to qualify for post-retirement health care coverage, age and service retirees must have ten or more years of qualifying Ohio service credit. A portion of each employer s contribution to OPERS is set aside for the funding of post-retirement health care based on authority granted by state statute. The portion of employer contributions allocated to healthcare decreased from 5.50% to 5.00% effective March 1, 2010. The County s actual 2012 contributions used to fund OPERS post-retirement health care were approximately $12,094,000. The County s employer contributions to OPERS are treated as a current expense and included in the County s operating expenditures. OPERS issues a stand-alone financial report that may be obtained by making a written request to Ohio Public Employees Retirement System, 277 East Town Street, Columbus, Ohio 43215, or by calling 614-222-5601 or 1-800-222-7377. As of November 15, 2013, 173 County employees were covered by STRS Ohio. These employees contribute at a rate of 10.00% of earnable salary or compensation, and the County contributes 14.00% of the same base. Both contribution rates are the maximum contribution rate permitted by Ohio law. STRS Ohio provides access to health care coverage to retirees who participated in its Defined Benefit or Combined plans and their dependents. All benefit recipients pay a portion of their health care costs in the form of a monthly premium. A portion of each employer s contribution to STRS Ohio is set aside for funding health care based on authority granted by state statute. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, STRS Ohio allocated employer contributions equal to 1.00% of covered payroll to the health care reserve fund. For the County, this amount totaled approximately $98,000 during 2012. The County s employer contributions to STRS Ohio are treated as a current expense and included in the County s operating expenditures. STRS Ohio issues a stand-alone financial report that may be obtained by writing to State Teachers Retirement System of Ohio, 275 East Broad Street, Columbus, Ohio 43215. A-13

Under the Consolidated Omnibus Reconciliation Act of 1985 (P.L. 99-272), the County is subject to mandatory Medicare (hospital insurance of FICA tax) contributions of 1.45% of each covered employee s wage base. Covered employees include all employees (with limited exceptions) hired after March 31, 1986. COUNTY SERVICES The cities, villages and townships, together with the various special districts and other governmental entities operating in the County, are responsible for many local governmental services and make significant expenditures to provide such services to County residents. The County, nonetheless, has significant responsibilities in the areas of general government, justice and public safety, road and bridge repair and social and human services. General Government County Auditor: One of the County Auditor s most important functions is assessing the value of real property for tax purposes. A complete reappraisal must be conducted every six years. The County Auditor has been a leader in the County s e-government initiatives. An online real estate property search offers computerized maps, appraisal and tax data for each of the approximately 435,000 parcels in the County. A tax levy estimator is also available on the website so property owners can learn firsthand how the passage of a proposed levy will affect their real estate tax bills. The County Auditor also posts a listing of delinquent real estate and manufactured home taxpayers on the website. Photographs of buildings are included on the website as part of a project that validates the building address and ties into the County Auditor s geographic information system. The validated addresses and property pictures should improve response time for emergency responders. The County Auditor also serves as the chief fiscal officer of the County. No County contract or obligation may be made without certification by the County Auditor that funds are available for payment. In addition, no amount may be paid except by the County Auditor s warrant drawn upon the County treasury. The County Auditor is responsible for the County payroll and also has statutory accounting and financial reporting responsibilities. The County Auditor serves on the Board of Revision, the Budget Commission and the Financial Report Review Committee. The County Budget Commission, comprised of the County Auditor, the County Treasurer and the Prosecuting Attorney, plays an important part in the financial administration of local governments. For a discussion of the role and function of the County Budget Commission, see COUNTY TAX BASE Budgeting, Tax Levy and Appropriations Procedures in this APPENDIX A. County Treasurer: The County Treasurer is required by state law to collect certain taxes and to distribute them to various governmental units based on the County Auditor s authorization. The County Treasurer disburses funds via warrants or electronic payments issued by the County Auditor for expenditures authorized by the Board. The County Treasurer must report receipts and cash and investment balances to the County Auditor on a daily basis. The County Treasurer s books of account must always balance with those of the County Auditor. The County Treasurer is a member of the Board of Revision and the Financial Report Review Committee. Justice and Public Safety As a part of the justice and public safety systems in the County, the County maintains the Court of Appeals, the Common Pleas Court and the Probate Court. A-14

The Clerk of Courts keeps all official records of the Common Pleas Court. The office of Clerk of Courts operates on fees charged for services. The Prosecuting Attorney serves as the chief legal counsel for all County officers, boards, and agencies, including the Board, the County Auditor and the County Treasurer. In addition, the Prosecuting Attorney serves as a member of the County Budget Commission. The Public Defender provides comprehensive legal representation services in criminal, juvenile and custody proceedings to indigent persons in the County. The Sheriff is the County s chief law enforcement officer and provides certain specialized services among which are maintaining a special staff of deputies to assist local law enforcement officers upon their request and to enforce the law in unincorporated areas of the County. The Sheriff also maintains the County jails and is responsible for its inmates, including persons detained for trial or transfer to other institutions. As an officer of the County Courts, the Sheriff is in charge of the preparation and service of documents. The County Courts and the offices of the Prosecuting Attorney, the Public Defender, the Sheriff, the Clerk of Courts and the County jails are located in the City. Road and Bridge Repair The County Engineer, required by law to be a registered professional engineer and surveyor, serves as the civil engineer for the County and its officials. The County Engineer s primary responsibilities are the construction, maintenance, and repair of the County s roads and bridges. The Board takes bids on and awards contracts for the projects recommended and approved by the County Engineer. The County Engineer is responsible for the preparation of an up-to-date highway map of the County and also, in conjunction with the County Auditor, prepares tax maps. Social and Human Services The Alcohol, Drug and Mental Health (ADAMH) Board is dedicated to improving the quality of life for persons with mental illnesses and alcohol/drug addictions by funding effective alcohol and drug addiction treatment and mental health care in the community. After assessing the mental health and addiction needs in the community, the Board purchases services from approximately fifty local not-forprofit agencies, which make up the safety net of care. The ADAMH Board also evaluates the care delivered to ensure citizens are getting the best care for community tax dollars. Services are available to any county resident, regardless of ability to pay. The 18 citizen volunteer members of the ADAMH Board of Trustees are volunteers who provide leadership and direction in forming policy, and allocating and monitoring funds. The Child Support Enforcement Agency (CSEA) establishes and enforces support orders and provides modifications to existing orders. CSEA provides a variety of services, including the location or relocation of absent parents responsible for support, the establishment of paternity for children born out of wedlock, the establishment and enforcement of orders for medical insurance coverage, and the enforcement of existing court-ordered support obligations. Franklin County Children Services conducts investigations into allegations of abuse, neglect, and dependency and protects and cares for children who are abused, neglected, dependent, or troubled. The agency works to preserve families, places children in foster homes and other appropriate out-of-home A-15

care, provides adoption services, aids physically handicapped children, and assists any child in need of protection and care. The Franklin County Department of Job and Family Services administers educational and employment training, workforce development, contingency services and programs emphasizing employment, responsibility and self-sufficiency through internal and/or contracted services. The Department of Job and Family Services is also responsible for administering public assistance, childcare, medical and social services programs to eligible County residents through four Community Opportunity Centers. The Board of Developmental Disabilities was established in 1967 by Ohio law to ensure the availability of programs, services and support that assist eligible individuals in developing skills to live more independently and productively within the community. The Board of Developmental Disabilities is a chartered school system that collaborates with sixteen school districts. It provides educational, vocational, and support services to persons with developmental disabilities, and it also funds organizations working to fulfill its mission. The Franklin County Office on Aging is responsible for planning and coordinating programs that assist older citizens in the maintenance of independent living. The Office on Aging publishes the Senior Citizen Information Handbook and administers the Franklin County Senior Options program, funded by the Senior Services Levy, and provides one-stop shopping for callers needing information, advocacy, or direct access to a wide range of community-based services. Through a contract with the Franklin County Department of Job and Family Services, the Office on Aging administers Adult Protective Services ( APS ), which assists impaired adults who may be at risk of abuse, neglect, or exploitation. The Office on Aging provides seniors direct home-based services such as minor home repairs and meal delivery through its Safe Housing and Home and Community Based Care programs. Special events sponsored by the Office of Aging promote health, wellness, volunteerism, and fellowship. The Veterans Service Commission represents and assists veterans, active duty members of the United States Armed Forces and their dependents in securing Veterans Administration benefits and provides financial assistance. The Commission also provides assistance for transportation, indigent burials, the setting of government headstones, and Memorial Day allowances to veteran organizations. The Columbus Regional Airport Authority The Columbus Regional Airport Authority (the CRAA ) was created in January 2003 as a result of a merger of operations of the Columbus Municipal Airport Authority and Rickenbacker Port Authority. The CRAA s governing board consists of nine directors: four members appointed by the Board; four appointed by the Mayor of Columbus; and one member jointly appointed. The CRAA s mission is to connect Central Ohio with the world through the operation of three airports: Port Columbus International, Rickenbacker International and Bolton Field. Columbus-Franklin County Finance Authority The Columbus-Franklin County Finance Authority (the CFCFA ) was created in March 2006 by legislative actions of the County and the City. The CFCFA s mission is to provide creative and attractive financing tools to the private and public sectors to enhance and facilitate economic activity, capital investment, and job creation and retention in Central Ohio. To date, the CFCFA has issued over $377 million in bond financings, closing on 27 projects which will facilitate the creation of 1,940 jobs. The CFCFA has established a bond fund which will allow business loans up to $6 million for businesses, organizations, and governments in Central Ohio. A-16

Franklin County Convention Facilities Authority The Board appoints a majority of the board members of the Franklin County Convention Facilities Authority (the Authority ). The Authority is a separate and distinct legal entity. Neither the County nor the City is responsible for the operation of the Authority or of the Greater Columbus Convention Center (the Center ). The Authority is able to issue its bonds to finance and refinance convention facilities. As of December 31, 2012, the Authority had $152.8 million in aggregate principal amount of bonds outstanding, of which $7.3 million in principal was due within fiscal year 2013. While the debt service on the Authority bonds has been paid, and is expected to be paid, from revenue sources available to the Authority, principally hotel/motel tax revenues, the County and the City have entered into lease/sub-lease agreements whereby the County and the City lease the Center from the Authority and concurrently sub-lease it back to the Authority. Pursuant to the lease, the City and County agree to pay as rental for the facility one-half of the total regularly scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Authority s outstanding bonds, for which the County is severally, but not jointly, liable. The sub-lease rent charged by the County and the City to the Authority also equals the annual debt service amount, and is expected to be paid by the Authority from hotel/motel tax revenues. As part of the annual budget process, the County appropriates the amount of rent for which it is obligated that year. However, neither the County nor the City has been required to expend its own resources to service, directly or indirectly, the Authority bonds. Although the term of the lease of the Center is until December 31, 2027, the lease is subject to earlier termination. The County, at its discretion and without incurring any penalty or further liability, may cancel the lease by not appropriating funds for the lease payment. The terms of the agreement provide many alternative plans for payment of the debt service in the event that the hotel/motel tax revenues prove insufficient. The County considers it highly unlikely that it will ever be required to service the Authority debt related to the Center with County resources. In addition to the bonds described above, the Authority issued $160 million in Lease Revenue Anticipation Bonds in 2010 (the Authority Series 2010 Bonds ). The Authority Series 2010 Bonds are federally taxable Build America Bonds issued for the purpose of providing funds to pay costs of constructing, equipping and furnishing a full-service convention center hotel and auxiliary facilities. While the debt service on the Authority Series 2010 Bonds is expected to be paid from revenue sources available to the Authority, the County has entered into lease/sub-lease agreements whereby the County leases the hotel from the Authority and concurrently subleases it back to the Authority. Pursuant to the lease, the County agrees to make rental payments equal to the scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Authority Series 2010 Bonds. The sublease rent charged by the County to the Authority also equals the annual debt service amount, and is expected to be paid by the Authority from certain revenue sources. The Authority has acquired the Nationwide Arena, which is located in the Arena District. Pursuant to Article 15, Section 6 of the Ohio Constitution, casinos developed in accordance with the constitutional authorization are required to pay a state tax, which is then distributed to various entities, including each county and each host city in which a casino is located (the casino tax receipts ). In order to pay a portion of the cost of acquiring Nationwide Arena, the County and City have entered into a lease/sublease arrangement with the Authority (the Arena Lease ) pursuant to which the County and the City have agreed to pay a portion of their respective shares of casino tax receipts to the Authority, which in turn pledged such receipts to the payment of debt service on indebtedness incurred by the Authority to acquire the Nationwide Arena. The County anticipates that under the Arena Lease, 25 percent of the County s annual casino tax receipts will be paid to the Authority from 2013 through 2015, and thereafter A-17

that the percentage of annual casino tax receipts payable under the Arena Lease will increase by one percent each year to a maximum of 32 percent. The Arena Lease is anticipated to be effective for 27 years, subject to extension or earlier termination upon certain circumstances set forth in the lease. No other funds of the County will be pledged or encumbered to the payment of any of the County s obligations under the Arena Lease and any of the County s payment obligations under the Arena Lease will be subject to annual appropriation made by the Board of County Commissioners and will be payable solely from, and only to the extent of, any casino tax receipts.

Ad Valorem Taxes and Assessed Valuation COUNTY TAX BASE Overview: For property taxation purposes, assessment of real property is performed on a calendar year basis by the elected County Auditor subject to supervision by the State Tax Commissioner, and assessment of public utility property and tangible personal property is performed by the State Tax Commissioner. Property taxes are billed and collected by the County Treasurer. Taxes collected from real property (other than public utility) in one calendar year are levied in the preceding calendar year on assessed values as of January 1 of that preceding year. Taxes collected from tangible personal property (other than public utility) in one calendar year are levied in the same calendar year on assessed values during and at the close of the most recent fiscal year of the taxpayer that ended on or before December 31 of that calendar year, and at the tax rates determined in the preceding year. Public utility real and tangible personal property taxes collected in one calendar year are levied in the preceding 1 The School District offers educational programs to students in grades 6-12 focusing in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM). A-20

calendar year on assessed values determined as of December 31 of that second year preceding the tax collection year. Real Property: The assessed valuation of real property is fixed at 35% of true value and is determined pursuant to rules of the State Tax Commissioner, except that real property devoted exclusively to agricultural use is assessed at not more than 35% of its current agricultural use value. Beginning in 2008, certain elderly or disabled resident homeowners could receive a flat $25,000 property tax exemption on the market value of their homestead though the Homestead Exemption Program. However, beginning January 1, 2014 the Homestead Exemption Program is being phased out, with new reductions limited to property owners with total income less than or equal to $30,000. This figure is adjusted for inflation annually by the State Tax Commissioner. Ohio law requires the County Auditor, subject to supervision by the State Tax Commissioner, to adjust the true value of taxable real property every six years to reflect current fair market values. This sexennial reappraisal is done by individual appraisal of properties. In the third year following a sexennial reappraisal, the County Auditor, again subject to supervision by the State Tax Commissioner, performs a triennial update to adjust the value of taxable real property to reflect true values. The triennial update is done without individual appraisal of properties, but with reference to a salesassessment ratio over the three-year period. The most recent triennial update was performed in 2008, with the sexennial reappraisal completed in 2011. On a County-wide level for the 2011 reappraisal, average decreases for commercial properties were 3.11% and for industrial properties, 7.86%. For residential properties, average decreases were 1.02%. Personal Property: In 2005, the State accelerated its phase-out of the tangible personal property tax. After 2011, tangible personal property is not subject to tax. Public utility tangible personal property including tangible personal property of electric utilities not used for transmission and distribution and all tangible personal property of gas utilities was not included in the phase-out created by the State. All public utility tangible personal property is assessed at varying percentages of its true value depending on the type of property and the type of utility. Portions of the revenue lost due to the elimination of tangible personal property tax will be reimbursed by the State. See Reimbursement of Lost Property Tax Revenues below. Delinquency Procedures The following is a general description of property tax delinquency procedures under Ohio law. The implementation of these procedures may vary in practice among Ohio counties. If real estate taxes and special assessments are not paid in the year in which they are due, they are to be certified by the County Auditor s office as delinquent. A list of delinquent properties is then to be published in a newspaper of general circulation in the County. If the delinquent taxes and special assessments are not paid within one year after such certification, the parcels are then also to be certified as delinquent to the County Prosecutor. After a list of delinquent properties is published in a newspaper of general circulation but before that list is certified as delinquent to the County Prosecutor, the County Treasurer may select from the list of delinquent parcels the liens against which the County Treasurer may attempt to sell tax certificates. A-21

Five percent (5%) of all certified delinquent taxes and assessments collected by the County Treasurer is deposited in a special fund to be divided between the County Treasurer and the County Prosecutor to be used solely for the collection of delinquent real property taxes and assessments. An additional five percent (5%) of all certified delinquent taxes and assessments collected is provided to the County Treasurer for dedicated use by the County's land bank corporation for use in the reclamation, rehabilitation, and reutilization of vacant, abandoned and tax delinquent properties. If the owner-occupier of residential real property so requests, a payment plan may be arranged with the County Treasurer. If such a payment plan is not adhered to or none is arranged, foreclosure proceedings may be initiated by the County. Ohio law also provides for notice by publication and mass foreclosure proceedings and sales after two years delinquency. If personal property taxes are not paid at the time they are due, they are to be certified by the County Auditor s office as delinquent. Annually on October 1, one copy of the list of delinquent taxes is given to the County Treasurer, who is required to prepare and mail a bill for the taxes to the property owner. A second copy of the list is to be published in a newspaper of general circulation in the County. After two public notices have been published in the same general circulation newspaper, a copy of the list is to be provided to the County Recorder, at which time it becomes a notice of lien for the taxes on the real and personal property of the property owner. If the property owner so requests, a payment plan may be arranged with the County Treasurer for delinquent personal property taxes. In collecting the delinquent personal property taxes, the County Treasurer may employ collectors. The County Treasurer may also collect the taxes by civil suit in the County Court of Common Pleas, or may seize property of the taxpayer and, after notice, sell the property at public sale. Proceeds from a Sheriff s sales of delinquent parcels, which sales do not include parcels securing tax lien certificates, become part of the current collection and are distributed as current collections to the taxing or assessing subdivisions in the County. Reimbursement of Lost Property Tax Revenues Rollback and Homestead Exemption Reimbursement The State reimburses taxing districts for decreased tax revenues due to (a) the 10% reduction or rollback in non-commercial property taxes, (b) the 2 1/2% reduction applicable to owner-occupied housing, and (c) the flat, $25,000 reduction in taxable value applicable to certain elderly or disabled homeowners. However, such reductions will be eliminated for new and replacement levies passed in November 2013 and thereafter. Existing levies and renewals are not impacted. The State subsidy payments to taxing districts will continue but will not increase if new local real estate millage is added. In addition, the reduction to the taxable value applicable to certain elderly or disabled homeowners is subject to means testing beginning January 1, 2014. See Ad Valorem Taxation and Assessed Valuation Real Property above. Such reimbursements are subject to repeal or revision by the State. A-22

Public Utility Property and Tangible Personal Property Tax Loss Reimbursement In tax year 2001, changes took effect which reduced the assessment percentages applicable to electric generation and natural gas tangible personal property, thereby reducing the amount of tangible public utility property tax revenue collected by taxing districts. In order to replace the taxes no longer received due to the lower assessment percentages, State consumption taxes on electricity and natural gas were enacted in 1999 and 2000, respectively. Beginning in 2006, the State began to phase out the tax on tangible personal property used in business. The State also reimburses certain taxing districts for the loss of tax revenues due to the phaseout of the tax on general business tangible personal property, and on the tangible personal property belonging to telephone, telegraph, and inter-exchange companies. In order to replace a portion of the lost revenue, a commercial activity tax was enacted in 2005 and is imposed on gross receipts, including receipts from certain services, in the State. The reimbursement of both types of tangible personal property tax revenue losses were scheduled to phase out by calendar year 2018. Instead, recent legislation generally accelerates the phase-out and reduces payments, depending on the type of levy. For fixed-rate levies, the reimbursement amounts for calendar year 2010 are compared to the total available resources of a taxing district. Total available resources: includes tangible personal and public utility tangible personal property tax reimbursements; the taxing district s share of local government fund revenues for calendar year 2010; the current expense real and public utility taxes charged and payable for tax year 2009; any admissions tax collections in calendar year 2008; income tax collections for calendar year 2008; and its median estate tax distribution for the period 2006 through 2009. If a taxing district s reimbursement payments are less than the threshold percentage for a year, then no further reimbursement is made; if the reimbursement payments exceed the threshold percentage, then the taxing district receives the amount in excess of the percentage. For calendar year 2011, the threshold percentage is 2%; for 2012, the percentage threshold is 4%, and for 2013 the percentage is 6%. As presently formulated, that reimbursement will continue indefinitely. For fixed sum and unvoted debt levy losses, amounts will continue to be reimbursed (less the amount attributed to one-half mill) so long as the levy continues to be imposed for fixed-sum levy purposes, and so long as the levy continues to be imposed for debt purposes until 2018, in the case of unvoted debt levies. Fixed rate levies for purposes other than current expenses are reduced by 25% over 2010 reimbursement levels for calendar years 2011; they are reduced 50% for calendar year 2012; and reduced by 75% for calendar year 2013 and thereafter. For additional information and a chart prepared by the Ohio Department of Taxation illustrating the amount of reimbursements for future years, go to http://tax.ohio.gov/channels/government/phase_out.stm. Ad Valorem Tax Rates Under statutory procedures, the amount realized by each taxing subdivision from real property taxation (other than amounts realized from taxes levied at a rate required to produce a specified amount, such as for debt service charges or emergency school levies, and taxes levied inside the ten-mill limitation or, in the case of municipalities, any applicable charter tax rate limitation) is limited to the amount realized from real property taxes in the preceding year plus: (i) any new taxes (other than renewals) approved by the electors but calculated to produce an amount equal to what would have been realized if A-23

levied in the preceding year and (ii) amounts realized from new and existing taxes on the assessed valuation of real property added to the tax duplicate since the preceding year. To accomplish this, as shown above, a composite reduction factor is applied to the stated total rate of taxes subject to this reduction. The results reflect the aggregate of those reductions and therefore the effective rate at which real property taxes are in fact collected. Some real property taxes may be further reduced by an additional amount; see Reimbursement of Lost Property Tax Revenues above for a discussion of reimbursement by the State for this reduction.

Other Major County General Fund Revenue Sources Described under this caption are major sources of revenue to the County s General Fund in addition to ad valorem taxes. See APPENDIX B for further information regarding other sources of revenue for the General Fund and other funds. County Sales Tax As permitted by Ohio law, the County imposed a one-half percent sales tax effective September 1, 1985 and a permanent one-quarter percent sales tax effective October 1, 2005. An additional temporary one-quarter percent sales tax also became effective on October 1, 2005 and expired December 31, 2007. In September 2013, the Board unanimously approved a permanent increase in the County s sales tax rate by one-quarter of one percent. The Board also acted to temporarily increase the rate by one quarter of one percent, which will expire on December 31, 2018. The new rate will apply to all retail sales in the County beginning January 1, 2014. The sales tax may be repealed if a majority of voters approve the repeal at a general election. The question of repeal must be placed on the ballot by a petition signed by qualified voters equal in number to ten percent of those voting for governor in the last gubernatorial election. No such petition has been filed with the County Board of Elections. Sales tax collections for 2013 exceeded initial budget estimates. The County's sales tax revenues are as follows for the years indicated: Historical Sales Tax Revenues County of Franklin, Ohio (in thousands 1 ) Year Full Accrual Cash Basis 2002 $ 79,423 $ 80,880 2003 82,728 80,556 2004 85,718 85,190 2005 105,886 84,788 2006 175,343 171,961 2007 177,398 176,471 2008 130,723 144,854 2009 124,249 122,586 2010 130,876 127,807 2011 138,479 135,890 2012 148,245 144,760 2013 N/A 152,492 2014 (1) N/A 233,301 Source: Franklin County Auditor (1) 2014 Approved Budget [Balance of Page Intentionally Left Blank] A-32

Local Government Fund The Ohio local government fund was created by statute and is comprised of designated State revenues that are distributed to each county and then allocated among the county and cities, villages, and townships in the county on the basis of statutory formulas.

Figures for 2013 2014 are shown on a cash basis. (2) 2014 Approved Budget. Budgeting, Tax Levy and Appropriations Procedures The Revised Code contains detailed provisions regarding County budgeting, tax levy and appropriation procedures. County budgeting for a fiscal year (which is the calendar year) formally begins with the preparation of a tax budget or alternative document as determined by the County Budget Commission, comprised of the County Auditor, County Treasurer and County Prosecuting Attorney (the Budget Commission ). Budget forms are distributed to County Department and Division heads for the succeeding fiscal year. After a public hearing, the tax budget is adopted by the Board by the end of July prior to the fiscal year to which it pertains. Among other items, the tax budget must show the amounts required for debt service, the estimated receipts for payment from sources other than ad valorem property taxes and the net amount for which an ad valorem property tax levy must be made, and the portions of the levy to be inside and outside the ten-mill limitation. The tax budget then is presented for review by the Budget Commission. The Budget Commission holds a public hearing, reviews the budget and issues the Certificate of Estimated Resources which is the basis for County appropriations and expenditures for the coming fiscal year (which is the calendar year). A-33

Upon approval of the tax budget and issuance of the Certificate of Estimated Resources, the County Budget Commission certifies its actions to the Board together with the approved tax rates. Thereafter, and before October 1 of each year, the Board levies the approved taxes and certifies them to the proper County officials. The approved and certified tax rates are reflected in the tax bills sent to property owners during the collection year. Real property taxes are payable on a calendar year basis, generally in two installments with the first due usually in January and the second due in June or later. It has been the practice of the Board to adopt a permanent appropriation measure for a fiscal year before December 31 of the immediately preceding fiscal year. Permanent appropriation measures may be amended or supplemented during the fiscal year. Annual appropriations may not exceed the County Budget Commission s official estimates of resources. The County Auditor must certify that the Board s appropriation measures, including any supplements or amendments, do not appropriate moneys in excess of the amount set forth in the latest of those official estimates. Investment of Funds According to the County Treasurer, all moneys of the County, specifically moneys in the general fund, the bond retirement fund, and all project funds containing proceeds of any debt issuances of the County, are presently or will be deposited and invested in accordance with the requirements of Ohio law, and in particular the Uniform Depository Act. Under Revised Code Section 135.31, the County may deposit active moneys, which are moneys deposited in public depositories and determined to be necessary to meet current demands on the treasury, in (i) a commercial account and withdrawable in whole or in part on demand, (ii) a negotiable order of withdrawal account as authorized in the Consumer Checking Account Equity Act of 1980, and (iii) a money market deposit account as authorized in the Garn-St. Germain Depository Institutions Act of 1982. The County s investment of inactive moneys, which are moneys in excess of the amount determined to be needed as active moneys, is governed by Revised Code Section 135.35. Pursuant to Section 135.35, a county may deposit or invest any part or all its inactive moneys in (i) United States Treasury bills, notes or bonds issued by the United States treasury, (ii) bonds, notes or debentures issued by any federal government agency or instrumentality, (iii) time certificates of deposit or savings or deposit accounts, (iv) bond or other obligations of the State or political subdivisions of the state, (v) noload money market mutual funds, (vi) the Ohio subdivision s fund established under Section 135.45 ( STAR Ohio ), (vii) securities lending agreements, (viii) commercial paper, (ix) bankers acceptances, (x) written repurchase agreements, and (xi) certain debt interests. The permitted investments described above are subject to certain restrictions as set forth under Section 135.35. Except in certain circumstances, investments of the County s inactive moneys must mature within five years from the date of investment. All investments of the County, except for investments in securities in no-load money market mutual funds, and STAR Ohio must be made through members of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc., banks, savings banks, or savings and loan associations regulated by the State superintendent of financial institutions or through institutions regulated by the comptroller of the currency, Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, or board of governors of the Federal Reserve System. Certain investment practices remain exclusive to those fiscal officers who have completed additional training and approved by the Auditor of State in accordance with the Uniform Depository Act. Further, counties are required to have a written investment policy on file with the Auditor of State pursuant to Revised Code Section 135.35. Absent such a policy, a county is restricted to investing inactive moneys in (i) time certificates of deposit or savings or deposit accounts, (ii) no-load money market mutual funds, and (iii) STAR Ohio. The County currently has a written investment policy on file with the Auditor of State. A-34

Statutory Debt Limitations Generally COUNTY DEBT AND DEBT LIMITATIONS The County may issue voted general obligation bonds, and notes issued in anticipation thereof, pursuant to a vote of the electors of the County. Ad valorem taxes, without limitation as to amount or rate, assessed to pay debt service on voted bonds are authorized by the electors at the same time they authorize issuance of the bonds. Such voted debt is subject to the direct debt limitations but is not subject to the indirect debt limitation. (See Direct Debt Limitations below.) Voted obligations may also be issued by certain overlapping subdivisions. General obligation bonds may also be issued by the County (and certain overlapping political subdivisions) without a vote of the electors. Unvoted debt is subject to both the direct and indirect debt limitations. (See Direct Debt Limitations and Indirect Debt Limitation. ) Following are descriptions of the statutory and constitutional debt and ad valorem property tax limitations applying to the County s presently outstanding and projected bond and note indebtedness, and certain other long term financial obligations of the County. Additional information with respect to the outstanding debt of the County appears in the Official Statement under the captions Outstanding Debt and Debt Service Requirements. Section 133.07 of the Revised Code provides that, exclusive of certain exempt debt (discussed below), the net principal amount of unvoted general obligation debt of a County may not (i) exceed one percent (1.0%) of the total value of all property in the County as listed and assessed for taxation. Section 133.06 of the Revised Code also provides that the net principal amount of both voted and unvoted general obligation debt of the County, may not exceed a sum equal to three percent (3.0%) of the first $100,000,000 of the assessed valuation, plus one and one-half percent (1.5%) of such valuation in excess of $100,000,000 and not in excess of $300,000,000, plus two and one-half percent (2.5%) of such valuation in excess of $300,000,000. These two limitations, referred to as the direct debt limitations, may be amended from time to time by the Ohio General Assembly. The Revised Code provides that certain county debt is exempt from direct debt limitations ( exempt debt ). Exempt debt includes general obligation debt to the extent that such debt is selfsupporting (that is, revenues from the facilities financed are sufficient to pay applicable operating and maintenance expenses and related debt service and other requirements); bonds issued in anticipation of the collection of special assessments; bonds issued for the purpose of housing county agencies, to the extent that revenues derived from leasing such facilities, other than that portion attributable to unvoted county taxes, is sufficient to pay debt service; revenue bonds; notes issued in anticipation of the collection of current revenues or in anticipation of the proceeds of a specific tax levy; notes issued for certain emergency purposes; bonds issued to pay final judgments; bonds for acquiring or constructing jail, detention or correctional facilities; and bonds for permanent improvements to the extent that debt service thereon is supported by a pledge, pursuant to Section 133.07(C)(9), Revised Code, of certain moneys to be received by the county. Notes issued in anticipation of exempt bonds also are exempt debt. In calculating debt subject to the direct debt limitations, the amount of money in a county s bond retirement fund allocable to the principal amount of non-exempt debt is deducted from gross non-exempt debt. A-35

Without consideration of money in the County s Bond Retirement Fund, and based on the currently applicable assessed valuation: (a) The total voted and unvoted non-exempt debt that the County could issue subject to the 3%, 1-1/2%, 2-1/2% limitation described above, is $652,519,842. The total County non-exempt debt which will be outstanding after delivery of the Bonds (and the refunding/defeasance of the Refunded Bonds) is $250,960,000, leaving a borrowing capacity of $401,559,842 within the limitation for combined voted and unvoted non-exempt debt; and (b) The total unvoted non-exempt debt that the County could issue subject to the 1% limitation is $261,607,936. The total County non-exempt debt subject to such limitation which will be outstanding after delivery of the Bonds (and the refunding/defeasance of the Refunded Bonds) is $250,960,000, leaving a borrowing capacity of $10,647,936 within the 1% limitation for unvoted nonexempt debt. Indirect Debt Limitation Unvoted general obligation bonds and bond anticipation notes cannot be issued by the County unless the tax required to be imposed on taxable property in the County for the payment of the debt service on (a) such bonds (or the bonds in anticipation of which notes are issued), and (b) all outstanding unvoted general obligation bonds (including bonds in anticipation of which notes are issued) of the combination of overlapping taxing subdivisions in the County resulting in the highest tax rate required for such debt service, in any one year, is ten mills or less per $1.00 of assessed valuation. This indirect debt limitation, the product of which is commonly referred to as the ten-mill limitation, is imposed by a combination of the provisions of Article XII, Sections 2 and 11 of the Ohio Constitution and Section 5705.02 of the Revised Code. The ten-mill limitation is the maximum aggregate millage for all purposes that may be levied on any single piece of property by all overlapping taxing subdivisions without a vote of the electors. The ten mills which may be levied without a vote of the electors is in fact levied, collected and allocated among the County and its overlapping taxing subdivisions for General Fund purposes pursuant to a statutory formula. This inside millage allocated to each overlapping taxing subdivision is required by present Ohio law to be used first for the payment of debt service on unvoted general obligation debt of the subdivision, unless provision has been made for its payment from other sources. The balance of the millage is available for other purposes of the subdivision. Thus, to the extent this inside millage is required for debt service of a taxing subdivision (which may exceed the formula allocation to that subdivision), the amount that would otherwise be available to that subdivision or to other such overlapping subdivisions for General Fund purposes is reduced. A subdivision s allocation of inside millage can be exceeded only in the event it is required for the payment of debt service on its unvoted general obligation debt and, in that case, the inside millage allocated to the other overlapping subdivisions would be reduced proportionally to bring the aggregate levies of inside millage down to ten mills. In the case of notes issued in anticipation of the issuance of unvoted general obligation bonds, the highest annual debt service estimated for the bonds anticipated by the notes is used to calculate the millage required. A-36

Revenue bonds and notes are not included in debt subject to the ten-mill limitation since they are not general obligations of the County, and neither the general revenue nor the full faith and credit of the County are pledged for their payment. The ten-mill limitation applies to all unvoted general obligation debt even if debt service on some of such debt is expected to be paid in fact from special assessments, utility earnings or other sources. Based upon the debt service requirements reflected in the table under the caption Debt Service Requirements below, the County s debt service requirement in the year of maximum unvoted debt service for all overlapping subdivisions (2015) is estimated to be $27,948,186.08. The payment of that annual debt service would require a levy of 1.0683 mills per $1.00 of assessed valuation based on current assessed valuation (see COUNTY TAX BASE Ad Valorem Taxes and Assessed Valuation ). Although the entire amount of debt service is expected by the County to be paid from sources other than ad valorem taxes (see SECURITY FOR AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE COUNTY S GENERAL OBLIGATION DEBT ), if those other sources for any reason are not available, the debt service could be met from the amounts produced by the millage currently levied for all purposes by the County within the ten-mill limitation. In calculating whether or not unvoted debt to be issued by the County is within the ten-mill limitation, it is necessary to determine which of the overlapping taxing subdivisions within the County (including the County) has the highest outstanding debt service requirements within the ten-mill limitation. The City of Westerville, Westerville City School District, Blendon Township, and the Solid Waste Authority of Central Ohio presently have unvoted general obligation debt outstanding theoretically requiring an aggregate of 8.4469 mills to pay 2015 debt service. The amount theoretically required for the County s unvoted general obligation debt in 2015 is 1.0683 mills which leaves 0.4848 mills free to be allocated to overlapping subdivisions to service additional unvoted bonds. The ten-mill limitation is such that a relatively small issue by an overlapping taxing subdivision with a small tax duplicate could encumber a significant amount of millage, thereby dramatically reducing the amount of unvoted general obligation debt that the County could issue. Bond Anticipation Notes Under Ohio law, notes, including renewal notes, issued in anticipation of the issuance of general obligation bonds may be issued and outstanding from time to time up to a maximum period of twenty years from the date of issuance of the original notes, except that the maximum maturity for notes issued in anticipation of general obligation bonds payable from special assessments is approximately five years. Any period in excess of five years must be deducted from the permitted maximum maturity of the bonds anticipated, and portions of the principal amount of notes outstanding for more than five years must be retired in amounts at least equal to, and payable not later than, principal maturities that would have been required if bonds had been issued at the expiration of the initial five year period. Bond anticipation notes may be retired at maturity from the proceeds of the sale of renewal notes, the proceeds of the sale of the bonds anticipated by such notes, from other available funds of the County, or from a combination of these sources. The ability of the County to retire its outstanding bond anticipation notes from the proceeds of the sale of either renewal notes or bonds will be dependent upon the marketability of such renewal notes or bonds under market conditions then prevailing. Under present Ohio law, there is no ceiling on the annual interest rate permitted on general obligation notes and bonds of counties. A-37

In addition, the County has received notice from the United States Treasury that such subsidy credit payment will be reduced for the current fiscal year, and no assurances can be made that the County will receive the full subsidy credit payment in the future. The County is not and has never been in default in the payment of the debt service on any of its general obligation bonds or notes. No bonds have been authorized by the electors that have not yet been issued. A-39

Overlapping Subdivision Indebtedness In addition to the County, other political subdivisions have the power to issue bonds and to levy taxes or cause taxes to be levied on taxable real property in the County. The estimated outstanding indebtedness of such political subdivisions as of December 31, 2012 is as follows (in thousands): Political Subdivision Direct debt Outstanding Debt Estimated Percent Applicable to the County 1 Estimated Share of Overlapping Debt Percent of Total Direct and Overlapping Debt Franklin County $ 290,155 100.0% $ 290,155 6.01% Political subdivisions located wholly within the County Cities $ 196,900 100.0% $ 196,900 4.08% Villages 12,370 100.0 12,370 0.26 Townships 7,367 100.0 7,367 0.15 School Districts 658,064 100.0 658,064 13.63 Other 92,505 100.0 92,505 1.92 Political subdivisions located partially within the County Cities 2,848,390 91.9% 2,616,576 54.22% Villages -- 97.6 -- -- Townships 1,630 85.2 1,389 0.03 School Districts 1,407,660 59.5 837,486 17.35 Special Districts 140,545 80.8 113,563 2.35 Total Overlapping Debt $5,365,431 $4,536,220 93.98% Total Direct and Overlapping Debt $5,655,586 $4,826,375 1 The amount applicable to Franklin County was determined by dividing the assessed valuation of the Franklin County portion of the subdivision by the total assessed valuation. The 2012 collection year valuations were used. Major entities partially within Franklin County include the cities of Columbus, Dublin, Pickerington, Reynoldsburg and Westerville along with their respective school districts. Leases and Other Long Term Obligations Leases Under Ohio law, counties have only the authority to lease or lease purchase that is expressly granted by statute or necessarily implied from expressly granted authority. The County has entered into various noncancellable leases for office space and office equipment, with aggregate lease payments of approximately $4.3 million due in 2013. The longest of these leases is with Northland Village Developers, LLC for office space located at Northland Park Avenue occupied by Franklin County Jobs and Family Services, with annual payments of $1,622,734 for 2013 and increasing to $2,122,955 in 2017, terminating in September 2031. This lease also has the largest annual obligation. A-40

Other Special Obligations of the County In September 2007, the County issued its $27,500,000 Taxable Special Obligation Bonds, Series 2007 (Stadium Facility Project) (the Stadium Bonds ) for the purpose of providing funds required to pay a portion of the cost of acquiring, constructing, installing, and equipping a county park and recreation facility, including a baseball stadium (the Stadium Project ). In addition, the County has issued $8,000,0000 Taxable Special Obligation Bond Anticipation Notes, Series 2013 on March 7, 2013 (the Stadium Notes ; together with the Stadium Bonds, the Stadium Obligations ) to retire the Series 2012 Stadium Facility Project Notes which had partially funded the costs of the Stadium Project. The Stadium Obligations are not general obligation debt and are not backed by a pledge of the full faith and credit or the taxing power of the County. The Stadium Obligations are secured by, and payable solely from, a pledge of revenues from the Stadium Project and non-tax revenues of the County. In addition, the County has several outstanding loans with the Ohio Water Development Authority and the Ohio Public Works Commission (current aggregate principal balance of $7,731,000, with principal and interest payments of $1,074,481 due in 2013). Principal and interest payments due on these loans may be made from multiple sources, including the County s general fund revenues, water and sewer user fees and tap-in charges, and motor vehicle and gasoline tax revenues, but these loans do not constitute general obligation indebtedness of the County. The County also has entered into a loan agreement with the Ohio Air Quality Development Authority (current principal balance of $8,796,192, with a principal and interest payment of $335,566 due in 2013) for energy efficiency capital improvement projects. This loan constitutes an unvoted general obligation debt of the County subject to ad valorem taxation within the ten-mill limitation imposed by Ohio law, but such obligation is expected to be paid from the cost savings achieved from such energy efficiency capital improvements. County Insurance The County maintains comprehensive insurance coverage with private carriers for real property, building contents and vehicles in a maximum amount of $500 million (blanket limit) with a $100,000 deductible clause. In addition, the County self-insures its general liability coverage, except for medical malpractice insurance for the Sheriff s Inmate Medical Care Program, which covers the doctors, nurses, and the County s vicarious liability with respect thereto. The commercial coverage for this medical malpractice insurance has a $1 million per occurrence limit with a $3 million per year aggregate limit and a $6 million maximum policy limit. Pursuant to statutes enacted in 1985 and 2003, the liability of political subdivisions in Ohio, including counties, has been significantly reduced. As a general rule, Ohio law provides that political subdivisions such as the County have immunity from liability in damages for injury, death, or loss to persons or property allegedly caused by an act or omission of such political subdivisions or their employees in connection with governmental and proprietary functions, as defined in the Ohio statutes. The statutes have no effect on any liability imposed by federal law or other federal cause of action. Pursuant to Ohio law, there are, however, five areas in which a political subdivision may be held liable for such loss. These include the negligent operation of a motor vehicle by employees engaged within the scope of their employment and authority; negligent performance of proprietary functions; negligent failure to keep public roads, highways, streets, avenues, alleys, and bridges in repair, and other negligent failure to remove obstructions from public roads; negligence of employees due to physical defects within or upon the grounds of buildings used in the performance of governmental functions, excluding jails, juvenile detention workhouses and other detention facilities; and liability specifically imposed by statute. Ohio law also imposes a two-year statute of limitations and puts limits on the damages that may be recovered from such political subdivisions. No punitive or exemplary damages can be recovered, and any insurance benefits are deducted from any award against a political subdivision. Although there is no A-41

limitation with respect to compensatory damages representing a person s economic loss, there is a $250,000 per person ceiling on the compensatory damage that represents a person s non-economic loss in cases other than wrongful death, in which case there is no maximum limitation. Future Financings The County has developed a comprehensive capital improvement plan with respect to meeting the infrastructure demands of its citizens. The plan includes infrastructure projects as part of the ongoing operations of the County Engineer, the Sanitary Engineering Department, and the Public Facilities Management Department. Funding for these improvements is provided from a number of sources including, but not limited to, the County general revenues, water and sewer user fees and tap-in charges, motor vehicle and gasoline tax revenues, and grants from the State of Ohio. The permanent improvement plan provides for various remodeling, renovation and rehabilitation projects, facility maintenance, road and bridge construction and maintenance, and the construction of new County facilities. With respect to future capital improvements, the County anticipates that additional jail space will be needed based on the condition of the current facilities and forecasted population growth for the County over the next several years. At this time, the estimated costs for the planning and construction of a new jail facility are projected at approximately $150 million. Planning, design, and financing for a new jail will be secured during calendar years 2016 or 2017. Additionally, the County Coroner s morgue and laboratory facilities are expected to be replaced by calendar year 2018 at an estimated cost of $50 million. At this time, the County anticipates using the proceeds from the temporary increase in the County s sales tax rate of one quarter of one percent, which will expire on December 31, 2018, to pay the costs of such improvements. A portion of the financing for Huntington Park was secured through the $8 million Series 2013 Stadium Notes (see Leases and Other Long Term Obligations Taxable Obligations above) that will mature in March, 2014. The $8 million Series 2013 Stadium Notes will mature on March 7, 2014. The County anticipates a $6 million financing in connection with the maturing note and the issuance of a new one-year note, and expects to completely retire the balance of its Stadium Notes by calendar year 2017. Financial Reports and Audits FINANCES OF THE COUNTY The County s fiscal year is the calendar year. The County maintains its accounts, appropriations, and other fiscal records in accordance with the procedures established and prescribed by the Auditor of the State of Ohio (the Auditor ). The Auditor is charged by Ohio law with the responsibility of auditing the accounts and records of each taxing subdivision and most agencies and public institutions. A financial report for each fiscal year is required to be filed with the Auditor of State pursuant to Sections 319.11 and 117.38 of the Revised Code. Such reports are required to be submitted to the Auditor within 150 days of the close of each fiscal year. The Auditor of State audits the County s records of financial transactions. The Basic Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2012 are attached hereto as APPENDIX B. The most recent audit by the Auditor of the County s financial statements, including those of the County Auditor, the Board, and the County Treasurer, was completed through the fiscal year ending December 31, 2012. The results of the audit were reviewed during the post-audit conference on July 30, 2013. The Auditor did not make any citations, require any adjustments, or make any findings for recovery. Except for audits by, or by certified public accountants at the direction of, the Auditor of State A-42

pursuant to Ohio law and audits under federal program requirements, no independent audit of the County s financial records is made. The County prepares its annual financial reports on the basis of generally accepted accounting principles ( GAAP ). The Governmental Accounting Standards Board and Financial Accounting Standards Board are the principal sources used to determine the accounting principles employed. These principles, among other things, provide for the government-wide statements presented on the full accrual basis of accounting, as well as a modified accrual basis of accounting for the governmental funds, for agency funds, and for certain fiduciary funds; and for a full accrual basis of accounting for proprietary funds and for certain fiduciary funds. The principles further provide for the government-wide statement of net assets and statement of activities as well as the preparation of balance sheets for each fund, and statements of revenues, expenditures, and changes in fund balances (governmental funds) or statements of revenues, expenses and changes in retained earnings/equity (proprietary funds).

Revenue Sources Although the security for the County s debt is its obligation to pay such debt from ad valorem taxes to be levied on all taxable property within the County, debt service for the County is in practice paid from five sources: ad valorem property tax revenues, sales tax revenues, building lease revenues, motor vehicle and gasoline tax revenues, and enterprise revenues. The following table summarizes the County s historical revenues by source: General Governmental Revenues by Source 1 County of Franklin, Ohio (Modified Accrual Basis; amounts in thousands) 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011 2012 Sales Tax $177,768 $ 136,336 $123,887 $130,621 $137,115 $148,386 Real and Other Taxes 370,977 359,593 379,236 403,734 399,464 386,086 Licenses and Permits 1,744 2,127 2,183 1,885 2,095 1,965 Fees and Charges for Services 92,659 83,862 87,085 94,178 96,251 84,798 Fines and Forfeitures 3,456 2,412 3,735 4,357 4,083 4,268 Intergovernmental 494,091 508,347 520,949 503,273 393,559 377,337 Investment Income 54,412 48,044 16,711 16,968 13,908 9,207 Other 22,299 28,296 29,764 28,620 30,794 32,055 Total Revenues $1,217,406 $1,169,017 $1,163,550 $1,183,620 $1,077,269 $1,044,102 Source: Franklin County Auditor 1 Figures include all primary Governmental Fund types including General Fund, Special Revenue Fund, Debt Service Fund, and Capital Projects Fund.

FINANCIAL CONDITION FRANKLIN COUNTY, OHIO NOTES TO FEDERAL AWARDS OF RECEIPTS AND EXPENDITURES SCHEDULE FISCAL YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2012 1) General The accompanying Federal Awards of Receipts and Expenditures Schedule (the Schedule) presents the federal grant activity of Franklin County, Ohio (the County). The Schedule only reflects the federal awards of the primary government except for the Alcohol, Drug and Mental Health Board of Franklin County as this board was audited separately. See note 6 to the Schedule. 2) Basis of Accounting The accompanying Schedule is presented using the cash basis of accounting in which revenues are recognized when received and expenditures are recognized when paid. Therefore, some amounts presented in the Schedule may differ from amounts presented in, or used in the preparation of, the basic financial statements. Amounts reported may also differ from other federal award reports the County submits directly to federal granting agencies or pass-through entities because the award reports may be presented for a different fiscal period, and/or may include cumulative (from prior years) data rather than data for the current year only. 3) Subrecipients The County passes-through to local governments or not-for-profit agencies (subrecipients) certain federal assistance received by the County directly from the federal awarding agency or from a passthrough entity. As described in note 2, the County records expenditures of federal awards to subrecipients when paid in cash. The subrecipients have certain compliance responsibilities related to administering these federal programs. Under OMB Circular A-133, the County is responsible for monitoring subrecipients to help assure that federal awards are expended for authorized purposes in compliance with laws, regulations, and the provisions of contracts or grant agreements, and that performance goals are achieved. The total amounts of federal assistance provided to subrecipients by the County for each federal program is summarized below: 7

The Federal Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) grants money for these loans to the County. The initial loan of this money is recorded as a disbursement on the accompanying Schedule of Federal Awards Expenditures (the Schedule).

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING AND ON COMPLIANCE AND OTHER MATTERS REQUIRED BY GOVERNMENT AUDITING STANDARDS Franklin County 373 South High Street, 26 th Floor Columbus, Ohio 43215 To the Board of County Commissioners: We have audited, in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States and the Comptroller General of the United States Government Auditing Standards, the financial statements of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, each major fund and the aggregate discretely presented component units and the aggregate remaining fund information of Franklin County, Ohio, (the County) as of and for the year ended December, 31, 2012, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the County s basic financial statements and have issued our report thereon dated June 27, 2013. Our reports refers to other auditors who audited the financial statements of Franklin County Stadium, Inc. and Columbus Baseball Team, Inc. and ARC Industries, Inc., which are discretely presented component units, as described in our report on the County s financial statements. This report does not include the results of other auditors testing of internal control over financial reporting or compliance and other matters that those auditors separately reported. Internal Control over Financial Reporting As part of our financial statement audit, we considered the County s internal control over financial reporting (internal control) to determine the audit procedures appropriate in the circumstances to the extent necessary to support our opinions on the financial statements, but not to the extent necessary to opine on the effectiveness of the County s internal control. Accordingly, we have not opined on it. A deficiency in internal control exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or employees, when performing their assigned functions, to prevent, or detect and timely correct misstatements. A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of internal control deficiencies resulting in a reasonable possibility that internal control will not prevent or detect and timely correct a material misstatement of the County s financial statements. A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control that is less severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged with governance. Our consideration of internal control was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph of this section and was not designed to identify all internal control deficiencies that might be material weaknesses or significant deficiencies. Given these limitations, we did not identify any deficiencies in internal control that we consider material weaknesses. However, unidentified material weaknesses may exist. 88 East Broad Street, Tenth Floor, Columbus, Ohio 43215 3506 Phone: 614 466 3402 or 800 443 9275 Fax: 614 728 7199 www.ohioauditor.gov 11

Franklin County Independent Auditors Report On Internal Control Over Financial Reporting And On Compliance And Other Matters Required By Government Auditing Standards Page 2 Compliance and Other Matters As part of reasonably assuring whether the County s financial statements are free of material misstatement, we tested its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements, noncompliance with which could directly and materially affect the determination of financial statement amounts. However, opining on compliance with those provisions was not an objective of our audit and accordingly, we do not express an opinion. The results of our tests disclosed no instances of noncompliance or other matters we must report under Government Auditing Standards. Purpose of this Report This report only describes the scope of our internal control and compliance testing and our testing results, and does not opine on the effectiveness of the County s internal control or on compliance. This report is an integral part of an audit performed under Government Auditing Standards in considering the County s internal control and compliance. Accordingly, this communication is not suitable for any other purpose. Dave Yost Auditor of State Columbus, Ohio June 27, 2013 12

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR REPORT ON COMPLIANCE WITH REQUIREMENTS APPLICABLE TO EACH MAJOR FEDERAL PROGRAM, INTERNAL CONTROL OVER COMPLIANCE REQUIRED BY OMB CIRCULAR A-133, AND FEDERAL AWARDS RECEIPTS AND EXPENDITURES SCHEDULE Franklin County 323 South Front Street Columbus, Ohio 43215 To the Board of County Commissioners: Report on Compliance for Each Major Federal Program We have audited Franklin County, Ohio (the County) compliance with the applicable requirements described in the U.S. Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Circular A-133, Compliance Supplement that could directly and materially affect each of Franklin County s major federal programs for the year ended December 31, 2012. The Summary of Audit Results in the accompanying schedule of findings identifies the County s major federal programs. Management s Responsibility The County s Management is responsible for complying with the requirements of laws, regulations, contracts, and grants applicable to its federal programs. Auditor s Responsibility Our responsibility is to opine on the County s compliance for each of the County s major federal programs based on our audit of the applicable compliance requirements referred to above. Our compliance audit followed auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America; the standards for financial audits included in the Comptroller General of the United States Government Auditing Standards; and OMB Circular A-133, Audits of States, Local Governments, and Non-Profit Organizations. These standards and OMB Circular A-133 require us to plan and perform the audit to reasonably assure whether noncompliance with the applicable compliance requirements referred to above that could directly and materially affect a major federal program occurred. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence about the County s compliance with those requirements and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe our audit provides a reasonable basis for our compliance opinion on the County s major programs. However, our audit does not provide a legal determination of the County s compliance. The County s basic financial statements include the operations of the Alcohol, Drug and Mental Health Board of Franklin County (ADAMH), which received $8,275,260 in federal awards which is not included in the County s Federal Awards Receipts and Expenditure Schedule for the year ended December 31, 2012. Our audit of Federal awards, described below, did not include the operations of ADAMH because the component unit engaged to have a separate audit of its Federal award programs in accordance with OMB Circular A-133. 88 East Broad Street, Tenth Floor, Columbus, Ohio 43215 3506 Phone: 614 466 3402 or 800 443 9275 Fax: 614 728 7199 www.ohioauditor.gov 13

Franklin County Independent Auditor Report On Compliance With Requirements Applicable To Each Major Federal Program, Internal Control Over Compliance Required By Omb Circular A-133, And Federal Awards Receipts And Expenditures Schedule Page 3 Opinion on Each Major Federal Program In our opinion, Franklin County complied, in all material respects with the compliance requirements referred to above that could directly and materially affect each of its major federal programs for the year ended December 31, 2012. Report on Internal Control Over Compliance The County s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective internal control over compliance with the applicable compliance requirements referred to above. In planning and performing our compliance audit, we considered the County s internal control over compliance with the applicable requirements that could directly and materially affect a major federal program, to determine our auditing procedures appropriate for opining on each major federal program s compliance and to test and report on internal control over compliance in accordance with OMB Circular A-133, but not to the extent needed to opine on the effectiveness of internal control over compliance. Accordingly, we have not opined on the effectiveness of the County s internal control over compliance. A deficiency in internal control over compliance exists when the design or operation of a control over compliance does not allow management or employees, when performing their assigned functions, to prevent, or to timely detect and correct, noncompliance with a federal program s applicable compliance requirement. A material weakness in internal control over compliance is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over compliance, such that there is a reasonable possibility that material noncompliance with a federal program compliance requirement will not be prevented, or timely detected and corrected. A significant deficiency in internal control over compliance is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over compliance with federal program s applicable compliance requirement that is less severe than a material weakness in internal control over compliance, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged with governance. Our consideration of internal control over compliance was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph of this section and would not necessarily identify all deficiencies in internal control over compliance that might be material weaknesses or significant deficiencies. We did not identify any deficiencies in internal control over compliance that we consider to be material weaknesses. However, material weaknesses may exist that have not been identified. This report only describes the scope of our internal control compliance tests and the results of this testing based on OMB Circular A-133 requirements. Accordingly, this report is not suitable for any other purpose. Report on Federal Awards Receipts and Expenditures Schedule Required by OMB Circular A-133 We have also audited the financial statements of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, each major fund and the aggregate discretely-presented component units and the aggregate remaining fund information of Franklin County, Ohio, (the County) as of and for the year ended December 31, 2012, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the County s basic financial statements. We issued our unmodified report thereon dated June 27, 2013, wherein we noted other auditors audited the financial statements of the Franklin County Stadium, Inc. and Columbus Baseball Team, Inc. and ARC Industries, Inc., which are discretely presented component units. We conducted our audit to opine on the County s basic financial statements. 14

Franklin County Independent Auditor Report On Compliance With Requirements Applicable To Each Major Federal Program, Internal Control Over Compliance Required By Omb Circular A-133, And Federal Awards Receipts And Expenditures Schedule Page 3 The accompanying federal awards receipts and expenditures schedule presents additional analysis required by the U.S. Office of Management and Budget Circular A-133, Audits of States, Local Governments, and Non-Profit Organizations and is not a required part of the basic financial statements. The schedule is management s responsibility, and was derived from and relates directly to the underlying accounting and other records management used to prepare the basic financial statements. We subjected this schedule to the auditing procedures we applied to the basic financial statements. We also applied certain additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling this schedule directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial statements or to the basic financial statements themselves, in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. In our opinion, this schedule is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole. Dave Yost Auditor of State Columbus, Ohio June 27, 2013 15

FISCAL SERVICES June 27, 2013 Citizens of Franklin County, Ohio: As Auditor of Franklin County, Ohio, (the County), I am pleased to present the Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR) for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012. This CAFR conforms to generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) as applicable to local government entities. The report has been filed with the Auditor of State pursuant to Ohio Revised Code (ORC) Section 117.38. Responsibility for the accuracy of the data and the completeness and fairness of the presentation rests with the County s management. We believe the data is accurate in all material respects and fairly reflects the County s financial position and the results of its operations. All disclosures necessary to enable the reader to gain an understanding of the County's financial activities have been included. In implementing the County's integrated, automated accounting system, consideration was given to incorporating sound internal controls. Internal controls are designed to provide reasonable, but not absolute, assurance regarding the safeguarding of assets against loss from unauthorized use or disposition, and the reliability and accuracy of financial records for preparing financial statements and maintaining accountability for assets. The concept of reasonable assurance is based on the assumption that the cost of the controls should not outweigh their benefits. The accounting system encompasses appropriations, encumbrances, expenditures, revenues, payroll and capital assets and ensures the financial information generated is both accurate and reliable. In County government, internal controls are enhanced through the separation of powers. The Commissioners, the Auditor and the Treasurer share the management and administration of the County s financial resources, providing an inherent system of checks and balances. Each of the County s elected officials and agency directors is responsible for internal controls over the cash collection function within their office. Some County offices and agencies hold money in bank accounts outside the County treasury. The individual offices and agencies are responsible for the transaction activity through and reconciliation of those accounts. U.S. Office of Management and Budget Circular A-133 requires an independent audit to be conducted annually. The audit, which includes procedures to fulfill federal Single Audit requirements, serves to maintain and strengthen the integrity of the County's accounting and budgetary controls. Included in this CAFR is the report of Dave Yost, Auditor of State. The State Auditor has issued an unqualified ( clean ) opinion on the County's financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2012. The Single Audit, which meets not only Circular A-133 requirements but also those of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, is published under separate cover and can be obtained by sending a written request to the Franklin County Auditor, Fiscal Services Division, 373 South High Street, 21 st Floor, Columbus, Ohio 43215-6310. Management s Discussion and Analysis (MD&A) provides a narrative introduction, overview and analysis to accompany the basic financial statements. This letter of transmittal is designed to complement the MD&A and should be read in conjunction with it. The MD&A begins on page 5, immediately following the Independent Accountants Report.

Letter of Transmittal For the Year Ended December 31, 2012 FRANKLIN COUNTY, OHIO Each year we also publish the Franklin County Popular Annual Report (PAFR) that provides significant financial information in a reader-friendly format. Unlike this CAFR, the PAFR does not conform to GAAP and should be used as a supplement to, not in place of, the CAFR. Both the CAFR and the PAFR can be accessed through the Internet on our web site at http://www.franklincountyauditor.com. Profile of Franklin County Government Formed in 1803, Franklin County is a political subdivision of the State of Ohio and has only those powers conferred upon it by state law. The following offices respectively hold the primary responsibility for budgeting, accounting and cash management in Franklin County. Each officeholder is elected to a fouryear term. The three-member Board of Commissioners (the Commissioners) serves as the taxing authority, the contracting body and the chief administrator of public services. The Commissioners adopt and oversee the annual operating budget, approve expenditures and issue debt. As the County s chief fiscal officer, the Auditor is responsible for maintaining accurate records of all money received by or paid out of the County treasury. As the tax assessor for all political subdivisions within the County, the Auditor is responsible for computing the taxing rates for real estate and manufactured homes as determined by proper taxing authorities and popular vote. As the County s banker, the Treasurer serves as custodian and investment officer for County funds. The Treasurer collects real estate and manufactured homes taxes. The financial statements contained within this CAFR include all funds, agencies, boards and commissions that are not legally separate and for which Franklin County (the primary government and reporting entity) is financially accountable. The County provides many services to its citizens including tax collection and distribution, civil and criminal justice systems, public safety, health assistance, human services, and road and bridge maintenance. The County also operates two public parking garages and several water supply and sewage treatment systems. The County does not operate schools or hospitals, nor is it responsible for refuse collection or fire safety services. Organizations that are legally separate from the County are included as component units if the County's elected officials appoint a voting majority of the organization's governing body and (1) the County has the ability to impose its will on that organization or (2) there is a potential for the organization to provide specific financial benefits to, or impose specific financial burdens on, the County. The following entities are included in the financial statements as component units: ARC Industries, Veterans Memorial Hall and Stadium and Team. A complete discussion of the reporting entity is provided in Note 1 to the basic financial statements. DRAFT - vi - 6/21/2013

The area has shown resiliency during recessions. The economy is broad-based, with no single industry dominating it. Nationwide Insurance and Limited Brands have located their headquarters and home offices in Franklin County. Other large employers include JPMorgan Chase Bank, OhioHealth Corp, Nationwide Mutual Insurance Company, and the Kroger Company.

Together, the State of Ohio, City of Columbus and Franklin County employ 39,000 people. An additional 37,000 people are employed by either The Ohio State University or Columbus Public Schools. The diversity of business sectors helps the region weather the economic fluctuations experienced on a larger scale elsewhere. The County s average unemployment rate decreased from 7.6 percent in 2011 to 6.1 percent in 2012. The County s unemployment rate is lower than the state average, which is 7.2 percent, and the national average of 8.1 percent. A factor contributing to the lower unemployment rate is the County s well-educated workforce. Based on 2011 educational attainment data published by the U. S. Census Bureau, 89.6 percent of County residents ages 25 and older have graduated from high school, and 35.3 percent have completed four or more years of college.

In comparison, 2011 total new construction was $438 million. Overall, real property continues to hold its value. The appraisal cycle is six years, with an update performed at the mid-point. The reappraisal performed in 2011 resulted in a decline in real property tax values. In the past, tangible personal property used in business (including inventory) was assessed for tax purposes. This tax has been phased out. However, for a temporary period, the State of Ohio is reimbursing the County for tax losses related to the phased elimination of taxes. A commercial activity tax is imposed on sales in Ohio to replace a portion of the lost revenue. Additional information can be found in Note 6 to the basic financial statements and in the statistical tables. $30,000,000 Assessed Value of Taxable Property (000's omitted) $25,000,000 $20,000,000 $15,000,000 $10,000,000 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011 2012 Real Estate Personal Property Public Utilities DRAFT - ix - 6/21/2013

Letter of Transmittal For the Year Ended December 31, 2012 FRANKLIN COUNTY, OHIO Financial Policies The budget must be structurally balanced so that continuing revenues support continuing expenditures. One-time surpluses may not be used to expand continuing expenditures. Rather, they may be used for one-time expenditures, such as capital projects. County agencies are encouraged to maximize the use of state and federal revenues so as to help preserve general revenues for other needs. Budgetary appropriations may not exceed estimated resources, with a balanced budget maintained in each fund. Department and agency budget requests are submitted in a program-based format in conjunction with strategic business plans that outline each program s performance goals for the following year. Actual performance data related to the demands, outputs, results and efficiencies of each program are part of the budget presentation. Some special revenue funds are required to maintain a balance necessary to cover operational needs for the first several pay periods of the following year in the event that a revenue stream is delayed. Agencies funded through tax levies are required to show that the expenditures forecast over the life of the levy do not exceed the estimated revenue collections. The budget may be amended or supplemented at any time during the year upon formal action of the Commissioners. Transfers of cash between funds require the Commissioners authorization. Appropriations lapse at the end of the year. The Commissioners adopted the County s 2012 operating budget on December 20, 2011. Additional information on the County's budgetary process can be found in Note 3 to the basic financial statements. ORC 5705.13 and ORC 5705.29 permit the taxing authority of a political subdivision to establish reserve balance accounts and to estimate contingent expenses. In accordance with actions taken by the Commissioners, the following set-asides are in place: General Fund Contingency up to three percent of the General Fund budget or one-sixth of the previous year s General Fund expenditures may be set aside for unanticipated critical needs. In 2012, $7.0 million was set aside for this purpose. Economic Stabilization five percent of the preceding year s General Fund revenue may be reserved to stabilize the budget against cyclical changes in revenue and expenditures. This account had a balance of $14.5 million as of December 31, 2012, and is shown as unassigned within the General Fund. Risk Management funds may be reserved for self-insurance. Liability claims arising from automobile accidents, litigation settlements and judgment awards are paid from agency budgets or from the amount designated for risk management within the General Fund. The actual claims paid during 2012 totaled $178,000. As of December 31, 2012, $23,000 was recorded as payable related to known claims, and $1.7 million is shown as committed in the General Fund for unasserted claims. DRAFT - x - 6/21/2013

Letter of Transmittal For the Year Ended December 31, 2012 FRANKLIN COUNTY, OHIO Workers Compensation funds may be reserved for the payment of claims under a self-insured program or a retrospective ratings plan for workers compensation. As of December 31, 2012, the County has $6.3 million recorded as committed in the General Fund for these future claims. 27 th Pay Period established in 1995, this reserve gradually collects the funds necessary to meet the payroll requirements of a 27 th pay period for General Fund employees which occurred in 2009. The next year with twenty-seven pay days will be 2020. The balance at December 31, 2012, was $0.6 million and is shown as committed in the General Fund in the financial statements. In addition to the reserve balances and contingencies permitted by state law, the Commissioners have pledged $3.6 million for debt service on the special obligation bonds and notes. This amount is shown as committed in the General Fund. The Treasurer is responsible for the investment of funds in accordance with the County s investment policy as authorized by the Investment Advisory Committee and in keeping with ORC 135.35. Specific requirements and limitations are described in Note 4 to the basic financial statements. To maximize the County s return on investment, the Treasurer s Office employs a cash management program and contracts with an investment advisory firm that systematically coordinates cash management, bank relations and the investment of surplus cash. Communication with other County agencies is integral in this process. At December 31, 2012, the County had $168.6 million unrestricted cash and investments in its General Fund and $900.7 million for the entire reporting entity. The cash and investments balance includes the designated monies previously described. It is the County s policy to issue long-term, fixed-rate debt as a supplement to current tax revenues and fund balances for financing infrastructure and capital projects. Consistent with Ohio law, long-term debt is not issued to support current operations. The County sells bond anticipation notes instead of bonds only when market conditions dictate, or as part of a multi-step construction program. The County will consider using either a competitive process or a negotiated process when issuing bonds. Debt capacity is benchmarked against means and medians for other triple-a rated counties of similar size and complexity as published by Moody s Investor Services and Standard & Poor s. The County s capital plan, debt obligations and debt capacity are evaluated together in an integrated manner, on an annual basis. Long-term Financial Planning The capital budgeting process utilizes a detailed five-year capital plan. A multi-year linkage between operating and capital budgets aids in determining the impact on future spending. Particular attention is focused on extending an asset s life. A thorough preventive maintenance program is required on each project, helping to avert major or emergency repairs. The County normally relies on the strength of its triple-a ratings, conservative fiscal practices, substantial revenue capacity, and reasonable debt ratios to access capital markets for financing projects. When beneficial in view of interest rates and the general economic picture, the County pays for capital improvements from current tax revenues and available cash balances. Franklin County s triple-a credit rating was reaffirmed by Moody s Investors Service in February 2013 and Standard & Poor s in May 2013. DRAFT - xi - 6/21/2013

Letter of Transmittal For the Year Ended December 31, 2012 FRANKLIN COUNTY, OHIO Major Initiatives The County has undertaken projects for construction of key community assets, including: Completion of a new Common Pleas Courthouse which accommodates long-term growth, improves building safety and security, and better meets the court s technological and operating needs. In addition, the County has also constructed tunnel and pedestrian concourse improvements, which will improve way-finding, access, and security within the Government Center. The total project, including land, tunnel and concourse improvements was approximately $140 million. Completion of a new animal shelter that replaced a thirty-two year old facility and expanded shelter and adoption capacity. The total project cost for the new animal shelter was approximately $18 million. Renovation of the Hall of Justice, which was vacated upon completion of the new Common Pleas Courthouse. The first phase of the project totaling $7.5 million included the design and abatement of asbestos, while the remaining phases will consist of renovations to the core, shell and infrastructure of the facility. The next phase of the project is expected to total $37.5 million, with the total project costs for the renovation of the Hall of Justice expected to be approximately $64 million. Several infrastructure improvements, the most major of which is the widening and reconstruction of portions of Clime Road. The total spent or committed to be spent on the Clime Road project is in excess of $19 million. Other infrastructure improvements undertaken by the County include the design and construction of a water treatment plant as well as several wastewater system improvements. These infrastructure improvements include: the Timberlake wastewater system; the Brown Road East sanitary sewer system; the Mon-E-Bak sanitary sewer system; the Holton Pak sanitary sewer system; the Taylor Estates sanitary sewer system; and the completion of the Timberlake water treatment plant. The total spent or committed on these water or wastewater improvements is nearly $20 million. The projects have been at least partially funded through long-term debt. See the discussion of Long-Term Debt in the MD&A on page 15 and Note 10 for more information.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR S REPORT Franklin County 373 South High Street, 26 th Floor Columbus, Ohio 43215 To the Board of County Commissioners: Report on the Financial Statements We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate discretely presented component units and the remaining fund information of Franklin County, Ohio (the County), as of and for the year ended December 31, 2012, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the County s basic financial statements as listed in the table of contents. Management s Responsibility for the Financial Statements Management is responsible for preparing and fairly presenting these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes designing, implementing, and maintaining internal control relevant to preparing and fairly presenting financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. Auditor's Responsibility Our responsibility is to opine on these financial statements based on our audit. We did not audit the financial statements of Franklin County Stadium, Inc. and Columbus Baseball Team, Inc. and ARC Industries, Inc., which represent 1.03% and 0.44% of assets, 8.43% and 7.49% of net position, and 3.98% and 2.99% of revenues, respectively, of the aggregate discretely presented component units and remaining fund information. Those financial statements were audited by other auditors whose report thereon has been furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar as it relates to the amount included for the County, is based solely on the report of other auditors. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the financial audit standards in the Comptroller General of the United States Government Auditing Standards. Those standards require us to plan and perform the audit to reasonably assure the financial statements are free from material misstatement. An audit requires obtaining evidence about financial statement amounts and disclosures. The procedures selected depend on our judgment, including assessing the risks of material financial statement misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In assessing those risks, we consider internal control relevant to the County's preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not to the extent needed to opine on the effectiveness of the County's internal control. Accordingly, we express no opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of management s accounting policies and the reasonableness of their significant accounting estimates, as well as our evaluation of the overall financial statement presentation. We believe the audit evidence we obtained is sufficient and appropriate to support our audit opinions. 88 East Broad Street, Tenth Floor, Columbus, Ohio 43215 3506 Phone: 614 466 3402 or 800 443 9275 Fax: 614 728 7199 www.auditor.state.oh.us -1-

Franklin County Independent Auditor s Report Page 2 Opinions In our opinion, based on our audit and the report of other auditors, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate discretely presented component units and the remaining fund information of Franklin County, Ohio, as of December 31, 2012, and the respective changes in financial position and where applicable, cash flows, thereof and the respective budgetary comparisons for the General, Board of Developmental Disabilities, Children Services Board, Alcohol, Drug and Mental Health Board and Public Assistance Funds thereof for the year then ended in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Other Matters Required Supplementary Information Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require this presentation to include Management s discussion and analysis as listed in the table of contents, to supplement the basic financial statements. Although this information is not part of the basic financial statements, the Governmental Accounting Standards Board considers it essential for placing the basic financial statements in an appropriate operational, economic, or historical context. We applied certain limited procedures to the required supplementary information in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, consisting of inquiries of management about the methods of preparing the information and comparing the information for consistency with management s responses to our inquiries, to the basic financial statements, and other knowledge we obtained during our audit of the basic financial statements. We do not opine or provide any assurance on the information because the limited procedures do not provide us with sufficient evidence to opine or provide any other assurance. Supplementary and Other Information Our audit was conducted to opine on the County s basic financial statements taken as a whole. The introductory section, the financial section s combining statements, individual fund statements and schedules, and the statistical section information present additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements. The financial section s combining statements, individual fund statements and schedules are management s responsibility, and were derived from and relate directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial statements. We subjected these statements and schedules to the auditing procedures we applied to the basic financial statements. We also applied certain additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling this information directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial statements or to the basic financial statements themselves, and other additional procedures in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. In our opinion, this information is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole. We did not subject the introductory section and statistical section information to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and, accordingly, we express no opinion or any other assurance on them. -2-

FRANKLIN COUNTY, OHIO Management s Discussion and Analysis For the Year Ended December 31, 2012 Unaudited As management of Franklin County (the County), we offer readers this narrative overview and analysis of the financial activities of the County as a whole for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012. We encourage readers to consider the information presented here in conjunction with our letter of transmittal, which can be found at the front of this report, and the financial statements, which follow this section and provide more specific detail. All amounts, unless otherwise indicated, are expressed in thousands of dollars. Financial Highlights The County s assets and deferred outflows exceeded its liabilities and deferred inflows at the close of 2012 by $1.261 billion. Of this amount, $235.4 million is considered unrestricted. Unrestricted net position may be used to meet ongoing obligations. The unrestricted net position of the County s governmental activities and business-type activities are $230.1 million and $5.3 million, respectively. The County s total net position increased by $16.8 million in 2012, an increase of 1.4 percent. Net position of the governmental activities increased $15.9 million, or 1.3 percent. Net position of the business-type activities increased $0.9 million, or 3.2 percent. Total revenues for 2012 were $1.001 billion. General revenues (taxes, investment earnings, unrestricted grants) accounted for $559.7 million, or 55.9 percent of all revenues. Program revenues (charges for services, program-specific grants and contributions) were $441.4 million, or 44.1 percent. The County s expenses related to governmental activities were $974.9 million. Of this amount, $431.0 million, or 44.2 percent of the total expenses were offset by program revenues. General revenues, primarily taxes, provided $559.7 million. At the close of 2012, the County s governmental funds reported a combined ending fund balance of $754.3 million, a decrease of $17.0 million in comparison with the prior year. Of the combined fund balance, $164.7 million was considered unassigned and available for spending at the County s discretion. At the end of the current fiscal year, unassigned fund balance for the General Fund was $172.1 million, or 55.9 percent of total General Fund expenditures (including transfers out). Unassigned fund balance for the General Fund decreased by $27.3 million, or 13.7 percent, when compared to 2011 s General Fund unreserved fund balance. The County s investment in capital assets (net of related debt) increased by $31.8 million, representing a 7.8 percent increase related to governmental activities and a 11.7 percent increase related to business-type activities. The County s total long-term debt (bonds, notes, loans and capital leases) decreased by $11.7 million, representing a 3.3 percent decrease in debt related to governmental activities and a 1.1 percent decrease in debt related to business-type activities. DRAFT - 5-6/21/2013

FRANKLIN COUNTY, OHIO Management s Discussion and Analysis For the Year Ended December 31, 2012 Unaudited Overview of the Financial Statements Management s discussion and analysis is intended to serve as an introduction to the County s basic financial statements, which are comprised of three components: 1) government-wide financial statements, 2) fund financial statements, and 3) notes to the basic financial statements. This report also contains supplementary information. Government-wide Financial Statements The government-wide financial statements provide a broad overview of the County s finances in a manner similar to a private-sector business and can be found on pages 18 and 19 of this report. The statement of net position presents information on all the County s assets and deferred outflows and liabilities and deferred inflows, with the difference reported as net position. Over time, the change in net position may serve as a useful indicator of whether the County s financial position is improving or declining. The statement of activities shows how the County s net position changed during the most recent fiscal year. All changes in net position are reported as soon as the underlying event occurs, regardless of the timing of related cash flows. Thus, revenues and expenses are reported in this statement for some items that will result in cash flows in future fiscal periods (e.g., uncollected taxes and earned but unused vacation leave). Both of the government-wide financial statements distinguish functions of the County that are principally supported by taxes and intergovernmental revenues (governmental activities) from other functions that are intended to recover their costs through user fees and charges (business-type activities). The County s governmental activities include general government, judicial, public safety, human services, health, public works, conservation and recreation, and community development functions. The County s business-type activities include water and sewer, and parking facilities operations. The government-wide financial statements include not only Franklin County itself (known as the primary government), but also certain organizations for which the County is financially accountable. Financial information for these component units is reported separately. The County s component units include ARC Industries, Incorporated, of Franklin County, Ohio (ARC Industries); Veterans Memorial Hall; and Franklin County Stadium, Inc. and Columbus Baseball Team, Inc. (Stadium and Team). Notes 1 and 18 to the basic financial statements contain more information about the component units. Fund Financial Statements A fund is a grouping of related accounts that is used to maintain control over resources that have been segregated for specific activities or objectives. The County, like other state and local governments, uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with finance-related legal requirements. The County s funds can be divided into three categories: governmental funds, proprietary funds and fiduciary funds. Governmental Funds: Governmental funds are used to account for essentially the same functions that are reported as governmental activities in the government-wide financial statements. However, unlike the government-wide financial statements, governmental fund financial statements focus on current sources and uses of spendable resources, as well as balances of spendable resources available at the end of the fiscal year. Such information may be useful in evaluating a government s short-term financing requirements. DRAFT - 6-6/21/2013

FRANKLIN COUNTY, OHIO Management s Discussion and Analysis For the Year Ended December 31, 2012 Unaudited Because the focus of governmental funds is narrower than that of the government-wide financial statements, it is useful to compare the information presented for governmental funds with similar information presented for governmental activities in the government-wide financial statements so as to understand the long-term impact of the County s short-term financing decisions. Both the governmental fund balance sheet and the governmental fund statement of revenues, expenditures and changes in fund balances provide reconciliations to facilitate this comparison between governmental funds and governmental activities. See pages 22 and 26 of this report. The County maintains many individual governmental funds. Information is presented separately in the governmental fund balance sheet and in the governmental fund statement of revenues, expenditures and changes in fund balances for those funds considered to be major funds. For Franklin County, these are the General Fund, Board of Developmental Disabilities (FCBDD) fund, Children Services Board fund, Alcohol, Drug and Mental Health (ADAMH) Board fund, and the Public Assistance fund. Data from the other governmental funds is aggregated for presentation as a single column. Individual fund data for each of the nonmajor governmental funds is provided in the combining statements. The County adopts a budget resolution annually. Financial statements for the major funds have been prepared on a budgetary basis that does not conform with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and are provided on pages 27 31 to demonstrate budgetary compliance. Proprietary Funds: The County maintains two types of proprietary funds. Enterprise funds report the same functions presented as business-type activities in the government-wide financial statements. Enterprise funds are used to account for water and sewer, and parking facilities operations. Internal service funds are an accounting device used to accumulate and allocate costs internally across the County s various functions. Internal service funds are used to account for employee benefits and telecommunications. Because the services accounted for in the internal service funds predominantly benefit governmental rather than business-type functions, they have been included within governmental activities in the government-wide financial statements. The proprietary fund statements provide the same type of information as the government-wide financial statements, only in more detail. The proprietary fund financial statements show the Water and Sewer fund and the Parking Facilities fund separately; the internal service funds are aggregated. The basic proprietary fund financial statements are on pages 32 34. Fiduciary Funds: Fiduciary funds are used to account for resources held for the benefit of parties outside the County. Fiduciary funds are not reflected in the government-wide financial statements because those resources are not available to support the County s own programs. The accounting used for fiduciary funds is much like that used for proprietary funds. The basic fiduciary fund financial statement can be found on page 35. Notes to the Basic Financial Statements: The notes provide additional information essential to a full understanding of the data provided in the government-wide and fund financial statements. The notes to the basic financial statements can be found on pages 36 91. Other Information: The combining statements referred to earlier in connection with nonmajor governmental funds, proprietary funds, fiduciary funds and component units are presented immediately following the notes. Individual fund schedules prepared on a non-gaap, budgetary basis are also presented. Combining nonmajor fund statements and individual fund schedules can be found on pages 95 168 of this report.

FRANKLIN COUNTY, OHIO Management s Discussion and Analysis For the Year Ended December 31, 2012 Unaudited Government-wide Financial Analysis The following table provides a summary of the County s 2012 net position compared to 2011: Net Position (Amounts in 000 s) Governmental Activities Business-type Activities Total 2012 2011 2012 2011 2012 2011 Assets: Current and other assets $ 1,398,558 $ 1,400,437 $ 6,830 $ 9,134 $ 1,405,388 $ 1,409,571 Capital assets 723,509 695,244 42,845 40,341 766,354 735,585 Total assets 2,122,067 2,095,681 49,675 49,475 2,171,742 2,145,156 Total deferred outflows of resources 1,109 1,410 - - 1,109 1,410 Liabilities: Long-term debt 335,523 347,014 17,036 17,229 352,559 364,243 Other long-term 44,723 48,084 98 193 44,821 48,277 Other liabilities 68,542 63,376 1,475 1,941 70,017 65,317 Total liabilities 448,788 458,474 18,609 19,363 467,397 477,837 Total deferred inflows of resources 444,796 424,917 - - 444,796 424,917 Net position: Invested in capital assets net of related debt 400,608 371,504 25,809 23,112 426,417 394,616 Restricted 598,881 601,905 - - 598,881 601,905 Unrestricted 230,103 240,291 5,257 7,000 235,360 247,291 Total net position $ 1,229,592 $ 1,213,700 $ 31,066 $ 30,112 $ 1,260,658 $ 1,243,812 As noted earlier, net position may serve as a useful indicator of the County s financial position. The County s assets and deferred outflows exceeded liabilities and deferred inflows by $1.261 billion ($1.230 billion in governmental activities and $31.1 million in business-type activities) at the close of 2012. The County as a whole, and its separate governmental and business-type activities, had positive balances in all categories of net position in the prior fiscal year as well. A large portion of the County s net position (33.8 percent) reflects its investment in capital assets (e.g., land, buildings and improvements, infrastructure, machinery and equipment, and construction in progress) less accumulated depreciation and any related outstanding debt that had been used to acquire those assets. Although the County s investment in its capital assets is reported net of related debt, it should be noted that the resources needed to repay this debt must be provided from other sources, since the capital assets themselves cannot be used to liquidate these liabilities.

FRANKLIN COUNTY, OHIO Management s Discussion and Analysis For the Year Ended December 31, 2012 Unaudited Financial Analysis of the County s Funds As noted earlier, the County uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with financerelated legal requirements. Governmental Funds The focus of the County s governmental funds is to provide information on nearterm inflows, outflows and balances of spendable resources. This information is useful in assessing the County s financing requirements. In particular, unreserved fund balance may serve as a measure of the County s net resources available for spending at the end of the year. At December 31, 2012, the County s governmental funds reported combined ending fund balances of $754.3 million, a decrease of $17.0 million in comparison with the prior year balances. Approximately $164.7 million of this amount constitutes unassigned fund balance, available for spending at the County s discretion. The remainder is nonspendable, restricted, committed or assigned to indicate that it is not available for new spending because it is related to notes receivable, advances to other funds or inventories of consumable supplies, none of which can easily be converted into cash. General Fund The General Fund is the chief operating fund of the County. The net change in the fund balance of the General Fund was a decrease of $18.1 million during 2012. However, at December 31, 2012, unassigned fund balance of the General Fund was $172.1 million, while total fund balance was $200.0 million. As a measure of the General Fund s liquidity, it may be useful to compare both unassigned fund balance and total fund balance to total fund expenditures. Unassigned fund balance represents 55.9 percent of total General Fund expenditures (including transfers out), while total fund balance represents 65.0 percent of that same amount. Major Special Revenue Funds The Board of Developmental Disabilities, Children Services Board, ADAMH Board, and Public Assistance funds are major special revenue funds used to account for specific governmental revenues and the associated expenditures are restricted to specified purposes because of legal or regulatory provisions or administrative action. The Board of Commissioners must approve tax levy requests before they are placed on the ballot. The Board of Developmental Disabilities fund accounts for property taxes and federal and state grants restricted to expenditures for those services that benefit the developmentally disabled. Property tax revenue decreased by $3.3 million and intergovernmental revenue decreased by $1.5 million when compared to the prior year. Expenditures for social service contracts, medical providers, and the maintenance and operation of buildings and buses increased by $5.6 million or 2.6 percent when compared with the prior year. The net change in fund balance for 2012 was a decrease of $2.0 million or 0.7 percent. The Children Services Board fund accounts for property taxes and federal funds restricted for programs designed to help abused, neglected, dependent, and troubled children and their families. The net change in fund balance for 2012 was a decrease of $6.5 million or 5.1 percent. The primary factor for the decrease in fund balance was the decline in intergovernmental revenue. Expenditures remained constant. DRAFT - 12-6/21/2013

FRANKLIN COUNTY, OHIO Management s Discussion and Analysis For the Year Ended December 31, 2012 Unaudited The ADAMH Board fund accounts for alcohol and drug addiction treatment programs and mental health services to the public, generally through contracts with local health care providers. The largest revenue sources are property taxes and state funding. The net change in fund balance for 2012 was an increase of $11.6 million or 19.5 percent. Property tax revenue remained relatively constant compared to revenue reported in 2011, however intergovernmental revenue decreased by $44.6 million or 66.8 percent. Expenditures decreased by $43.4 million or 41.5 percent. The Public Assistance fund accounts for funding from the State of Ohio for job training and various other types of assistance and services for qualified clients. Intergovernmental revenue decreased by $4.7 million or 8.5 percent, and program spending decreased by $28.0 million or 30.9 percent. The net decrease in fund balance was $2.2 million. Some of the major programs and related intergovernmental revenue previously handled by the County are now provided and accounted for by the State of Ohio. Other Governmental Funds Other Governmental Funds represents all nonmajor special revenue funds, nonmajor capital projects funds and nonmajor debt service funds. The largest revenue sources are intergovernmental revenues from the state (primarily related to road and bridge construction and collection of court-ordered child support) and property taxes for the zoo and for senior services. The net change in fund balance for 2012 was an increase of $0.3 million or 0.4 percent. This activity was recorded in the related capital projects fund. See the Capital Asset and Debt Administration section on pages 14 and 15 and the related notes to the basic financial statements, Note 9 and Note 10, on pages 64 75 for more information on the capital assets and related debt issuances. Proprietary Funds The County s proprietary funds provide the same type of information found in the business-type activities in the government-wide financial statements, but in more detail. Unrestricted net position of Water and Sewer at the end of the year amounted to $2.2 million and those for Parking Facilities amounted to $3.0 million. The total change in net position for the funds was an increase of $1.2 million and a decrease of $0.3 million, respectively. Other factors concerning the finances of these two funds have already been addressed in the discussion of the County s business-type activities. Budgetary Highlights The County s budget is prepared according to Ohio law. The most significant budgeted fund is the General Fund. For calendar year 2012, the total original appropriations for the General Fund, including those for advances and transfers out, were $308.5 million, while the final appropriations were $313.0 million, resulting in a net increase of $4.5 million or 1.5 percent. While the total general fund budget did not change significantly between original and final budget, there were some significant changes to the functional classifications as follows: $7.0 million was originally budgeted within the Board of Commissioners budget as a contingency item but was reclassified to other functional areas as needs were evident. Major adjustments included commitments to certain construction and permanent improvement projects. There was a $1.0 million increase in appropriations for vehicles and a new deputy training class. DRAFT - 13-6/21/2013

FRANKLIN COUNTY, OHIO Management s Discussion and Analysis For the Year Ended December 31, 2012 Unaudited Final General Fund appropriations for 2012 were lower than the final 2011 appropriations by $12.7 million or 3.9 percent, and 3.8 percent higher than actual 2012 budgetary basis expenditures. Significant variances between the final budget and actual results for the General Fund are described as follows: Actual general government expenditures were $3.2 million or 4.2 percent lower than budgeted. While all of the general government agencies had positive variances, the most significant variance was due to commissioners expenditures $0.8 million lower than budget. Actual judicial expenditures were $2.0 million or 2.3 percent lower than expected. Spending by common pleas court was $0.6 million lower than budgeted; the prosecuting attorney was $0.5 million lower than budgeted and by the clerk of court, $0.5 million lower than budgeted. Expenditures for data processing equipment, supplies and services were lower than expected. Actual public safety expenditures were $0.4 million or 0.5 percent lower than expected, primarily due to Sheriff expenditures being lower than final budget. Actual transfers out of the General Fund were $4.8 million lower than budget. Capital Asset and Debt Administration Capital Assets The County s investment in capital assets for its governmental and business type activities at December 31, 2012, amounts to $426.4 million (net of related debt).

FRANKLIN COUNTY, OHIO Management s Discussion and Analysis For the Year Ended December 31, 2012 Unaudited Economic Factors and Next Year s Budgets and Rates Franklin County has experienced significant growth in the past thirty years, both in population and in tax base. The County s financial condition remains strong. The County s General Fund unrestricted cash balance at December 31, 2012, was $168.6 million, an amount sufficient to cover General Fund expenditures for more than seven months. When preparing the budget for the 2013 fiscal year, the following factors were taken into consideration: Franklin County s unemployment rate for 2012 was 6.1 percent, a decrease of 1.5 percent from 2011. As unemployment remains high, the demand for health and human services provided by County agencies is expected to continue. Sales tax revenues are projected to remain relatively flat and a significant revenue source. Another major revenue source, the local government fund, is expected to be significantly reduced in future years. Investment earnings are expected to decline by $3.0 million in the General Fund and $3.0 million overall due to lower interest rates and less money to invest. The economic stabilization reserve and contingency funding remain at the maximum levels permitted by Ohio law. Despite cost savings measures, General Fund cash reserves are expected to decrease by approximately $28.4 million.

FRANKLIN COUNTY, OHIO Reconciliation of the Statement of Revenues, Expenditures and Changes in Fund Balances of Governmental Funds to the Statement of Activities For the Year Ended December 31, 2012 (Amounts in 000 s) Net change in fund balances - total governmental funds (page 25) $ (16,971) Amounts reported for governmental activities in the statement of activities (page 19) are different because: Governmental funds report capital outlays as expenditures. However, in the statement of activities, the cost of those assets is allocated over their estimated useful lives as depreciation expense. The effect on the change in net position is calculated as follows: Per statement of revenues, expenditures and changes in fund balances: Capital outlay expenditures 18,291 Capitalized expenditures reported in functional areas 30,692 Per statement of activities: Depreciation expense (Note 9) (19,897) 29,086 The net effect of transactions involving sales and retirements of capital assets decreased net position (Note 9) (4,246) Revenues in the statement of activities that do not provide current financial resources are not reported as revenues in the funds. The amount is the net effect of the prior year items against current year accruals. (9,514) Proceeds of debt provide current financial resources to governmental funds, but issuing debt increases long-term liabilities in the statement of net position. Repayment of principal is an expenditure in the governmental funds, but the repayment reduces long-term liabilities in the statement of net position. The effect on the change in net position is as follows: Per statement of revenues, expenditures and changes in fund balances: Issuance of debt, including refunding bonds and capital leases (15,648) Principal retirement, including capital leases (Note 10) 25,741 10,093 Governmental funds report the effect of issuance costs and premiums when the debt is first issued, whereas these amounts are deferred to future periods and amortized in the statement of activities. The effect on the change in net position is as follows: Per statement of revenues, expenditures and changes in fund balances: Premiums on issuance of debt (Note 10) (25) Debt issuance costs 24 Per statement of activities: Amortization of bond premiums (Note 10) 1,398 Amortization of deferred charges (Note 10) (301) Amortization of issuance costs (1,969) (873) Some expenses are reported in the statement of activities but do not require the use of current financial resources and therefore are not reported as expenditures in governmental funds. The amount is the net effect of prior year items against current year accruals. 7,824 Internal service funds are used by management to charge the costs of employee benefits and telecommunications to individual funds.

Notes to the Basic Financial Statements For the Year Ended December 31, 2012 FRANKLIN COUNTY, OHIO Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) as applied to governmental units. The Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) is the standard-setting body for governmental accounting and financial reporting principles. Franklin County (the County and the primary government) follows GASB guidance as applicable to its governmental and business-type activities. The most significant of the County s accounting policies are described below. A. Reporting Entity Franklin County was formed in 1803 and is a political subdivision of the State of Ohio. The three Commissioners serve as the County s budgeting, taxing and contracting authority. The Auditor serves as the chief fiscal officer. The Treasurer serves as the custodian of funds. All are elected positions. The reporting entity is comprised of the primary government and other organizations (component units) that are included to ensure that the financial statements are not misleading. The primary government consists of all funds, departments, boards and agencies that are not legally separate from the County and for which the Commissioners are financially accountable. Component units are legally separate organizations for which the County is financially accountable. Financial accountability exists in situations where the Commissioners appoint a voting majority of the organization s governing board and (1) the County is able to significantly influence the programs or services provided by the organization; or (2) the County is legally entitled to or can otherwise access the organization s resources; the County is legally obligated or has otherwise assumed the responsibility to finance the deficits of, or provide financial support to, the organization; or the County is obligated for the debt of the organization. Component units may also include organizations for which the County approves the budget, the issuance of debt or the levying of taxes. The component units column on the government-wide financial statements includes the financial data of the County s discretely presented component units. They are reported in a separate column to emphasize their legal separation from the County. Condensed financial information for each component unit is provided in Note 18. ARC Industries, Incorporated, of Franklin County, Ohio (ARC Industries) ARC Industries is a sheltered, not-for-profit workshop that enters into contracts with the business community to provide workers for various manufacturing and service industry jobs. ARC Industries employs clients of the Franklin County Board of Developmental Disabilities (FCBDD) to fill these positions. FCBDD is part of the primary government and its operations are accounted for as a special revenue fund. All supervisory personnel at ARC Industries are FCBDD employees. FCBDD trains the client-employees and provides the DRAFT - 36-6/21/2013

Notes to the Basic Financial Statements For the Year Ended December 31, 2012 FRANKLIN COUNTY, OHIO Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) training supplies as well as the production facilities. ARC Industries buys the supplies used in its manufacturing processes. The two entities cooperate under a joint agreement that is automatically renewed annually unless either party gives notice within thirty days of yearend of its intention to cancel the agreement. Through ARC Industries relationship and financial integration with the FCBDD, the County can impose its will on ARC Industries, and ARC Industries imposes a financial burden on the County. Veterans Memorial Veterans Memorial Hall was built to commemorate the services of all members and veterans of the United States armed forces and to provide a center for veterans meetings and programs. The Commissioners appoint the board of trustees in a non-authoritative manner. The designation of Veterans Memorial s management and control of its operations are under the direction and control of the trustees. The County owns Veterans Memorial and leases it to the trustees under an agreement that extends until 2013. Under the agreement, the County receives rent equal to Veterans Memorial s annual net income from operations plus all reserves in excess of $250,000. No rent has been paid the last seven years (2005 2012). The County issued general obligation bonds to finance renovations and improvements to the facility. Debt service is the County s responsibility. Franklin County Stadium, Inc. and Columbus Baseball Team, Inc. (Stadium and Team) These two interrelated nonprofit corporations were organized under Ohio Revised Code (ORC) Chapter 1702 to provide entertainment and recreation in the stadium for the benefit and general welfare of the County. Upon dissolution of the corporations, their assets become the property of the Commissioners. The Franklin County Board of Parks and Recreation directs both the stadium and the team. While appointed by the Commissioners, the board operates autonomously and selects its own management. The County owns the franchise for the team, entitling the County to field a team in the International League but without the authority to determine which team plays in the stadium. During 2007, the County issued special obligation bonds and notes for the construction of a new stadium (Huntington Park) and has pledged non-tax General Fund revenue for the related annual debt service, placing a financial burden on the County. The County owns the ballpark, and leases it to Stadium and Team through a lease agreement expiring in December 2033. See Note 8 for more information about the lease. Complete financial statements for each of the individual component units may be obtained from the unit s administrative office.

Accordingly, the activities of these entities are presented as agency funds within the basic financial statements. Franklin County Public Health Franklin County Soil and Water Conservation District Franklin County Family and Children First Council Mid-Ohio Regional Planning Commission Franklin County Community Based Correctional Facility The County s joint ventures and related organizations are listed below. A joint venture is a legal entity or other organization that results from a contractual arrangement, and that is owned, operated or governed by two or more participants as a separate and specific activity subject to joint control, in which the participants retain an ongoing financial interest or responsibility. For the related organizations, the County either appoints or acts as a member on the board, but the County s accountability for the organizations does not extend beyond the board membership, or the County receives financial benefit from the organization.

Measurement Focus, Basis of Accounting and Financial Statement Presentation Measurement Focus Measurement focus refers to what is expressed in reporting an entity's financial performance and position. A particular measurement focus is accomplished by considering which resources are measured. Changes in the economic resources are reflected as changes in net position (total assets and deferred outflows less total liabilities and deferred inflows). This focus is used in the government-wide, the proprietary fund and the fiduciary fund financial statements. Changes in the current financial resources focuses on the transactions or events that have increased or decreased the resources available for spending in the near future. This focus is used in the governmental fund financial statements. DRAFT - 38-6/21/2013

Notes to the Basic Financial Statements For the Year Ended December 31, 2012 FRANKLIN COUNTY, OHIO Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) Basis of Accounting Basis of accounting determines when transactions are reported on the financial statements. Differences in the accrual and the modified accrual basis of accounting arise in the timing of recognition of revenue and the recording of unavailable revenue, and in the presentation of expenses versus expenditures. The government-wide, the proprietary fund and the fiduciary fund financial statements report transactions on the accrual basis. The governmental fund financial statements utilize the modified accrual method. On the modified accrual basis, revenue is recorded in the fiscal year in which the resources are measurable and become available. Available means that the resources will be collected soon enough to be used to pay liabilities of the current fiscal year. The County considers revenues to be available if collected within sixty days of year-end. Under the non-gaap budgetary basis, transactions are recorded when cash is received or disbursed. Revenues: Exchange and Non-exchange Transactions Revenue resulting from exchange transactions, in which each party gives and receives essentially equal value, is recorded on the accrual basis when the exchange takes place. Non-exchange transactions, in which the County receives value without directly giving equal value in return, include sales taxes, property taxes, grants, entitlements and donations. On the accrual basis, revenue from sales taxes is recognized in the period in which the taxable sale takes place. On the modified accrual basis, revenue from transactions must also be available before it can be recognized. Under this basis, the following revenue sources are considered to be both measurable and available at year-end: sales taxes, interest, federal and state grants and subsidies, state-levied locally shared taxes (including motor vehicle license fees and gasoline taxes), fees and rentals. Unearned Revenue Unearned revenue arises when assets are recognized before revenue recognition criteria have been satisfied. Property taxes for which there is an enforceable legal claim as of December 31, 2012, but which were levied to finance year 2013 operations, have been recorded as unearned revenue. Grants and entitlements received before the eligibility requirements are met are also recorded as unearned revenue. Expenses/Expenditures On the accrual basis of accounting, expenses are recognized at the time they are incurred. The measurement focus of governmental fund accounting is decreases in net financial resources (expenditures) rather than expenses. On the modified accrual basis, expenditures are generally recognized in the accounting period in which the related fund liability is incurred, if measurable, provided current financial resources are to be used. As a result, compensated absences and most claims and judgments are not recorded as expenditures or liabilities until current financial resources are required. Allocations of cost, such as depreciation and amortization, are not recognized in governmental funds. DRAFT - 39-6/21/2013

Notes to the Basic Financial Statements For the Year Ended December 31, 2012 FRANKLIN COUNTY, OHIO Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) Financial Statement Presentation The County s basic financial statements consist of government-wide statements displaying information about the County as a whole, and fund financial statements that provide a more detailed level of financial information. Government-wide Financial Statements The government-wide financial statements are prepared using the economic resources measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting. The statement of net position and the statement of activities include the non-fiduciary financial activities of the primary government and its component units. The statements distinguish between those primary government activities that are governmental (financed primarily by taxes and grants) and those that are business-type (relying significantly on user fees and charges). Component units are aggregated and shown in a single column, regardless of the type of underlying activity. The statement of net position presents the financial condition of the governmental and business-type activities of the County and its component units at year-end. All assets and liabilities associated with the operation of the County are included. Interfund receivables and payables within governmental activities and within business-type activities have been eliminated to minimize the duplicating effect on assets and liabilities within the governmental and business-type activities total columns. The balances of the internal service funds have been eliminated against the expenses and program revenues shown in governmental activities on the statement of activities. The statement of activities demonstrates the degree to which the direct expenses are offset by program revenues for each function of the County s governmental activities, for each segment of the business-type activities of the County and for activities of the County s component units. This comparison of direct expenses with program revenues identifies the extent to which each segment or function is self-financing or draws from the County s general revenues. Direct expenses are those that are specifically associated with a service, program or department and therefore clearly identifiable to a particular function or segment. Program revenues include (1) charges paid by the recipient of the goods or services and (2) grants and contributions that are restricted to meeting the operational or capital requirements of a particular function or segment. Revenues that are not classified as program revenues are presented as general revenues of the County. The activities of the internal service funds and interfund activity within the same function have been eliminated to avoid duplicating revenues and expenses. However, interfund services provided and used between functions are not eliminated in the process of consolidation. The County does not allocate indirect expenses to functions or segments in the statement of activities. Revenue from property taxes is recognized in the fiscal year for which the taxes are levied (see Note 6). Revenues from grants, entitlements and donations are recognized in the fiscal year in which all eligibility requirements have been satisfied. Eligibility requirements include timing requirements that specify the year when the resources are required to be used or the year when use is first permitted; matching requirements in which the County must provide local resources to be used for a specified purpose; and expenditure requirements in which the resources are provided to the County on a reimbursement basis.

Notes to the Basic Financial Statements For the Year Ended December 31, 2012 FRANKLIN COUNTY, OHIO Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) Fund Financial Statements The County uses funds to segregate transactions related to certain functions or activities in order to aid financial management and demonstrate legal compliance. Separate financial statements present financial information at a more detailed level for governmental funds, proprietary funds and fiduciary funds, even though the latter are excluded from the government-wide financial statements. The governmental and enterprise fund financial statements focus on major funds, with each major fund presented in a separate column. Nonmajor funds are aggregated and presented in a single column. The County also maintains two internal service funds. Agency funds, a type of fiduciary fund, are used to account for assets held by the government as agent for individuals, private organizations and other governments. Governmental Funds Governmental funds are those through which most governmental functions are financed. All governmental funds are reported using the flow of current financial resources measurement focus and the modified accrual basis of accounting. With this measurement focus, only current assets and current liabilities generally are included on the balance sheet. Expendable assets are assigned to the various governmental funds according to the purposes for use. Current liabilities are assigned to the fund from which they will be paid. The difference between governmental fund assets and liabilities is reported as fund balance. The statement of revenues, expenditures and changes in fund balances reports on the sources (i.e., revenues and other financing sources) and uses (i.e., expenditures and other financing uses) of current financial resources. This approach differs from the manner in which the governmental activities of the government-wide financial statements are prepared. Reconciliation with brief explanations is included so as to better identify the relationship between the governmentwide statements and the statements for governmental funds. The following are the County's major governmental funds: General Fund The General Fund is the primary operating fund and is available for any purpose, provided it is expended or transferred in accordance with state law. It accounts for all financial resources of the primary government not recorded elsewhere. Board of Developmental Disabilities (FCBDD) Fund The FCBDD fund accounts for property taxes and federal and state grants restricted to expenditures for those services that benefit its clients. Expenditures include those for social service contracts, medical providers and the maintenance and operation of buildings and buses. Children Services Board Fund The Children Services Board fund accounts for property taxes and federal and state funds restricted for programs designed to help abused, neglected, dependent and troubled children and their families. Alcohol, Drug and Mental Health Board (ADAMH Board) Fund The ADAMH Board fund accounts for the provision of alcohol, drug addiction and mental health services to the public, generally through contracts with local mental health agencies. The largest revenue sources are property taxes, and federal and state funding. DRAFT - 41-6/21/2013

Notes to the Basic Financial Statements For the Year Ended December 31, 2012 FRANKLIN COUNTY, OHIO Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) Public Assistance Fund The Public Assistance fund accounts for funding from various federal and state grants used to provide job training and public assistance to qualified clients, to pay their medical providers and for certain social services. The County s nonmajor governmental funds account for (1) grants and other resources where use is restricted to a particular purpose; (2) the accumulation of resources for, and payment of, the principal, interest and related costs for the County s long-term debt; and (3) financial resources used for the acquisition, construction or renovation of facilities (other than those financed by proprietary funds). Proprietary Funds Proprietary fund reporting focuses on the determination of operating income, changes in net position, financial position and cash flows. Proprietary funds are classified as either enterprise or internal service. Like the government-wide statements, all proprietary funds are reported using the economic resources measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting. All assets, deferred outflows, liabilities and deferred inflows associated with the operation of these funds are included on the statement of net position. The statement of revenues, expenses and changes in net position presents increases (i.e., revenues) and decreases (i.e., expenses) in net position. The statement of cash flows provides information about how the County finances and meets the cash flow needs of its proprietary activities. Enterprise funds are used to account for operations that are financed and operated in a manner similar to private business enterprises. The County intends that the cost of providing services to the general public on a continuing basis be financed or recovered primarily through user charges. The County s enterprise funds are listed below: Water and Sewer Fund The Water and Sewer fund accounts for the provision of water and sewer services to some parts of the County not serviced by others. Parking Facilities Fund The Parking Facilities fund accounts for the fees and operations of parking facilities near County offices that serve County employees and the general public. Internal service funds account for the financing of services provided by one agency to other agencies of the government on a cost-reimbursement basis. The County has an internal service fund to account for employee benefits and one for telecommunication charges to other funds. Fiduciary Funds Fiduciary fund reporting uses the accrual basis of accounting. Because of their custodial nature, fiduciary funds do not measure results of operations and do not have a measurement focus. The County uses agency funds to account for assets held in a purely custodial capacity as fiscal agent for other entities and for various taxes, stateshared revenues, and fines and forfeitures collected on behalf of and distributed to other local governments. Agency fund transactions typically involve only the receipt, temporary investment and distribution of these resources. DRAFT - 42-6/21/2013

Notes to the Basic Financial Statements For the Year Ended December 31, 2012 FRANKLIN COUNTY, OHIO Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) C. Cash, Cash Equivalents and Investments Cash resources of the majority of individual funds are combined to form a pool of cash and investments managed by the County Treasurer. Interest earned on investments is accrued as earned. Under existing Ohio law, all investment earnings are assigned to the General Fund unless contractually required to be credited to a specific fund. Distribution is made utilizing a formula based on the average monthly balance of cash and cash equivalents of all funds. For reporting purposes, "Equity with County Treasurer" is defined as cash on hand, demand deposits and investments held in the County treasury. "Cash and investments in segregated accounts is defined as cash, deposits and investments not held in the treasury. "Restricted cash" is defined as cash, deposits and investments held either in the treasury or in an outside account, and which is separate from the County's assets (e.g., customer deposits or unclaimed moneys). For cash flow reporting purposes, the County s proprietary funds consider cash and cash equivalents to be cash on hand, demand deposits and short-term investments with original maturities of three months or less from the date of acquisition. Equity with County Treasurer is considered to be cash and cash equivalents since these assets are available on demand. Investments held by the Treasurer are stated at fair value using quoted market prices, except for repurchase agreements that are reported at cost. Net unrealized gains and losses calculated through the aggregate method are recorded as investment income. By statute, the Treasurer invests any short-term cash surplus. The residual investments are included in "Equity with County Treasurer." STAR Ohio is an investment pool that allows governments within the state to pool their funds for investment purposes. STAR Ohio is managed by the State Treasurer s Office and is not registered with the SEC as an investment company, but does operate in a manner consistent with Rule 2a7 of the Investment Company Act of 1940. Investments in STAR Ohio are valued at STAR Ohio s share price, which is the price the investment could be sold for on December 31, 2012. Note 4 provides details regarding cash, cash equivalents and investments held by the County. Investments held by the component units are considered available for sale and are stated at fair value. The component units use the specific identification cost method when calculating realized gains and losses on sales of investments. D. Loans Receivable Loans receivable consists of long-term revolving loans for housing and community development projects. The programs are primarily funded by a federal block grant, with a local match from the County. Loans receivable is offset by a credit to Unearned revenue. The expenditure is recorded when the loan is made. The loans for which there is some doubt of collection are not included in the receivable. DRAFT - 43-6/21/2013

Notes to the Basic Financial Statements For the Year Ended December 31, 2012 FRANKLIN COUNTY, OHIO Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) E. Inventories Inventories consist of expendable supplies held for consumption. Inventories are valued at cost using the first in/first out (FIFO) method and recorded as expenditures/expenses when used rather than when purchased. F. Prepaid Items Payments made to vendors for services that will benefit periods beyond December 31, 2012, are recorded as prepaid items in both the government-wide and fund financial statements. The consumption method is used, recording a current asset for the prepaid amount and reflecting the expenditure/expense in the year in which services are consumed. G. Capital Assets Capital assets are those assets not specifically related to activities reported in the proprietary funds and generally result from expenditures in the governmental funds. These assets are reported in the governmental activities column of the government-wide statement of net position but are not reported in the fund financial statements. Capital assets utilized by the proprietary funds are reported both in the business-type activities column of the government-wide statement of net position and in the respective fund financial statements. Capital assets are capitalized at cost (or estimated historical cost) and updated for additions and retirements during the year. Donated capital assets are recorded at their fair market value as of the date received. For assets other than infrastructure, the County maintains a capitalization threshold of $5,000 (amount not rounded), an estimated life of five or more years and a salvage value equal to 10 percent of the original cost for certain assets. The County s infrastructure consists of roads, bridges, water lines and sewer lines, with a capitalization threshold of $100,000. The costs of improvements and major renovations that extend the asset s useful life are capitalized. Interest incurred during the construction of assets utilized by the enterprise funds is also capitalized. Normal maintenance and repair costs that do not add to the value of the asset nor materially extend an asset s life are not capitalized. Capital assets are depreciated except for land and construction in progress. Improvements are depreciated over the remaining useful lives of the related capital assets. Useful lives for infrastructure have been estimated based on the County s historical records of necessary improvements and replacement. Capital assets are shown net of accumulated depreciation. Depreciation and amortization of capitalized interest are computed using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives: Buildings Building improvements Roads and bridges Sewer and water lines Machinery and equipment 30-50 years 10-25 years 37-50 years 20-70 years 5-20 years DRAFT - 44-6/21/2013

Notes to the Basic Financial Statements For the Year Ended December 31, 2012 FRANKLIN COUNTY, OHIO Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) H. Deferred Outflows/Inflows of Resources In addition to assets, the statement of financial position will sometimes report a separate section for deferred outflows of resources. This separate financial statement element, deferred outflows of resources, represents a consumption of net position that applies to a future period(s) and so will not be recognized as an outflow of resources (expense/expenditure) until then. The County only has one item that qualifies for reporting in this category. It is the deferred charge on refunding reported in the government-wide statement of net position. A deferred charge on refunding results from the difference in the carrying value of refunding debt and its reacquisition price. This amount is deferred and amortized over the shorter of the life of the refunded or refunding debt. In addition to liabilities, the statement of financial position will sometimes report a separate section for deferred inflows of resources. This separate financial statement element, deferred inflows of resources, represents an acquisition of net position that applies to a future period(s) and so will not be recognized as an inflow of resources (revenue) until that time. The County has only one type of item, which arises only under a modified accrual basis of accounting, that qualifies for reporting in this category. Accordingly, the item, unavailable revenue, is reported only in the governmental funds balance sheet. The governmental funds report unavailable revenues from two sources: property taxes and special assessments. These amounts are deferred and recognized as an inflow of resources in the period that the amounts become available. I. Interfund Balances Activity between funds that represents lending/borrowing arrangements outstanding, and unpaid interfund services at the end of the fiscal year are referred to as Due to/from other funds or Advances to/from other funds. Interfund receivables and payables within governmental activities and within business-type activities have been eliminated in the government-wide statement of net position; any residual outstanding between the governmental activities and business-type activities are reported as Internal balances. J. Accrued Liabilities and Long-term Obligations All payables, accrued liabilities and long-term obligations are reported on the government-wide statement of net position, and all payables, accrued liabilities and long-term obligations payable from proprietary funds are reported on the proprietary fund financial statements. Bond premiums and discounts are deferred and amortized over the life of the bonds using the effective interest method. Bonds payable are reported net of the applicable bond premium or discount. Debt issuance costs, except any portion related to prepaid insurance costs, are recognized as an expense in the period incurred. In general, governmental fund payables and accrued liabilities that, once incurred, are paid in full from current financial resources are reported as obligations of the funds. Bonds, loans and capital leases are recognized as liabilities on the fund financial statements when due. DRAFT - 45-6/21/2013

Notes to the Basic Financial Statements For the Year Ended December 31, 2012 FRANKLIN COUNTY, OHIO Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) K. Self-insurance The Commissioners have formed the Franklin County Cooperative Health Benefits Program (the Program) to provide multiple employee health care benefit plans. Approximately 4,900 County employees and 1,500 employees of other political subdivisions are covered by the Program. Premiums are established based on an independent actuarial evaluation, and are designed to be sufficient to cover all incurred claims and build a reserve for this joint self-insurance arrangement. If the reserve is insufficient at any point in time to cover catastrophic losses, the losses will be covered by the County s General Fund with adjustments made to future premium rates. The County is the predominant participant, and activities related to the Program are reported in the Employee Benefits internal service fund. The County has recorded a liability at year-end in the Employee Benefits fund for pending claims and incurred but unreported claims. Beginning in 2012 the County began to self-insure its workers compensation costs. Charges are established based on an independent actuarial evaluation, and are designed to be sufficient to cover all incurred claims and maintain a reserve for this self-insurance arrangement. If the reserve is insufficient at any point in time to cover claims, the claims will be covered by the County s General Fund with adjustments made to future charge rates. The County is the only participant and activities related to the program are reported in the Employee Benefits internal service fund. L. Compensated Absences The County permits employees to accumulate earned but unused vacation and sick leave benefits. Vacation benefits are accrued as a liability in the government-wide and proprietary fund financial statements when the benefits are earned if (1) the vacation leave is related to services already rendered and (2) it is probable that the employee will be compensated through time off or some other means in a future period. Sick leave benefits are accrued in the government-wide and proprietary fund financial statements using the vesting method. The sick leave liability is based on accumulated sick leave and employee wage rates at December 31 st for those employees who are currently eligible to receive termination benefits and those the County has identified as probable of receiving payment in the future. A liability for compensated absences is recorded in governmental funds only if they have matured, for example as a result of employee resignation or retirement. The criteria for determining vacation and sick leave liabilities are based on Commissioners' policies for compensated absences. The policies set by negotiated agreements and by other appointing authorities may vary slightly. Vacation and sick leave are accumulated based on hours worked. Vacation pay is fully vested after one year of full-time service. By Ohio law, accumulated vacation cannot exceed three times the annual accumulation rate for an employee. There is no limit for the accumulation of sick leave. Employees with eight to eighteen years of service at time of separation or retirement receive payment for one-fourth of their accumulated sick leave. Employees with eighteen or more years of service receive payment for one-half of their accumulated sick leave. All payments are made at the employee's current wage rate. DRAFT - 46-6/21/2013

Notes to the Basic Financial Statements For the Year Ended December 31, 2012 FRANKLIN COUNTY, OHIO Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) M. Fund Balance Fund balance is divided into five classifications based primarily on the extent to which the County is bound to observe constraints imposed upon the use of the resources in the governmental funds. The classifications are as follows: Nonspendable The nonspendable fund balance category includes amounts that cannot be spent because they are not in spendable form, or legally or contractually required to be maintained intact. The not in spendable form criterion includes items that are not expected to be converted to cash. It also includes the long-term amount of loans receivable, as well as property acquired for resale, unless the use of the proceeds from the collection of those receivables or from the sale of those properties is restricted, committed, or assigned. Restricted Fund balance is reported as restricted when constraints placed on the use of resources are either externally imposed by creditors (such as through debt covenants), grantors, contributors, or laws or regulations of other governments or is imposed by law through constitutional provisions or enabling legislation (County resolutions). Enabling legislation authorizes the County to assess, levy, charge, or otherwise mandate payment of resources (from external resource providers) and includes a legally enforceable requirement that those resources be used only for the specific purposes stipulated in the legislation. Legal enforceability means that the County can be compelled by an external party-such as citizens, public interest groups, or the judiciary to use resources created by enabling legislation only for the purposes specified by the legislation. Committed The committed fund balance classification includes amounts that can be used only for the specific purposes imposed by formal action (resolution) of the Board of County Commissioners. Those committed amounts cannot be used for any other purpose unless the Board of County Commissioners removes or changes the specified use by taking the same type of action (resolution) it employed to previously commit those amounts. In contrast to fund balance that is restricted by enabling legislation, committed fund balance classification may be redeployed for other purposes with appropriate due process. Constraints imposed on the use of committed amounts are imposed by the Board of County Commissioners, separate from the authorization to raise the underlying revenue; therefore, compliance with these constraints are not considered to be legally enforceable. Committed fund balance also incorporates contractual obligations to the extent that existing resources in the fund have been specifically committed for use in satisfying those contractual requirements. DRAFT - 47-6/21/2013

Notes to the Basic Financial Statements For the Year Ended December 31, 2012 FRANKLIN COUNTY, OHIO Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) Assigned Amounts in the assigned fund balance classification are intended to be used by the County for specific purposes but do not meet the criteria to be classified as restricted or committed. The Board of County Commissioners may assign fund balance as it does when appropriating fund balance to cover a gap between estimated revenue and appropriations in the subsequent year s appropriated budget. In governmental funds other than the General Fund, assigned fund balance represents the remaining amount that is not restricted or committed. In the General Fund, assigned amounts represent intended uses established by the Board of County Commissioners. Unlike commitments, assignments generally only exist temporarily and additional action does not normally have to be taken for the removal of an assignment. Unassigned Unassigned fund balance is the residual classification for the General Fund and includes all spendable amounts not contained in the other classifications. In other governmental funds, the unassigned classification is used only to report a deficit balance resulting from overspending for specific purposes for which amounts had been restricted, committed, or assigned. The County applies restricted resources first when expenditures are incurred for purposes for which either restricted or unrestricted (committed, assigned, and unassigned) amounts are available. Similarly, within unrestricted fund balance, committed amounts are reduced first followed by assigned, and then unassigned amounts when expenditures are incurred for purposes for which amounts in any of the unrestricted fund balance classifications could be used. N. Net Position Net position represents the difference between assets, deferred outflows, liabilities and deferred inflows. Net investment in capital assets, net of related debt, consist of capital assets, net of accumulated depreciation, reduced by the outstanding balances of any borrowing used for the acquisition, construction or improvement of those assets. Net position is reported as restricted when there are limitations imposed on its use through Commissioners resolution, or external restrictions imposed by creditors or grantors, or laws or regulations of other governments. Restricted resources are applied when an expense is incurred for purposes for which both restricted and unrestricted net position is available. O. Operating Revenues and Expenses Operating revenues are those revenues that are generated directly from the primary activity of the proprietary funds. For the County, these revenues are charges for water and sewer services and for use of the parking facilities. Operating expenses are necessary costs incurred to provide the services that are the primary activities of the fund. Revenues and expenses not meeting this definition are reported as nonoperating revenues and expenses. P. Capital Contributions Capital contributions are made from the federal, state, and other participating local governments to the governmental funds for construction projects. For business-type activities, capital contributions arise from contributions of capital assets, tap-in fees to the extent they exceed the cost of the connection to the system, or from grants or outside contributions of resources restricted to capital acquisition and construction.

Notes to the Basic Financial Statements For the Year Ended December 31, 2012 FRANKLIN COUNTY, OHIO Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) Q. Interfund Activity Transfers between governmental and business-type activities on the government-wide statements are reported in the same manner as general revenues. Exchange transactions between funds are reported as revenues in the seller funds and as expenditures/expenses in the purchaser funds. Flows of cash or goods from one fund to another without a requirement for repayment are reported as interfund transfers. Interfund transfers are reported as other financing sources/uses in governmental funds and after nonoperating revenues/expenses in proprietary funds. R. Estimates The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results may differ from those estimates. Note 2 Changes in Accounting Principles and Restatement of Budgetary Fund Balance During the year, the County adopted the GASB Statements listed below. Statement No. 60, Accounting and Financial Reporting for Service Concession Arrangements. The objective of this Statement is to improve financial reporting by addressing issues related to service concession arrangements, which are a type of public-private or public-public partnership. Statement No. 61, The Financial Reporting Entity: Omnibus an amendment of GASB Statements No. 14 and No. 34. The objective of this Statement is to improve financial reporting for a governmental financial reporting entity. This Statement modifies certain requirements for inclusion of component units in the financial reporting entity. This Statement also amends the criteria for reporting component units as if they were part of the primary government in certain circumstances and clarifies the reporting of equity interest in legally separate organizations. Statement No. 62, Codification of Accounting and Financial Reporting Guidance Contained in Pre- November 30, 1989 FASB and AICPA pronouncements. The objective of this Statement is to incorporate into the GASB s authoritative literature certain accounting and financial reporting guidance that is included in FASB and AICPA pronouncements issued on or before November 30, 1989 which does not conflict with or contradict GASB pronouncements. Statement No. 64, Derivative Instruments: Application of Hedge Accounting Termination Provisions an amendment of GASB Statement No. 53. The objective of this Statement is to clarify whether an effective hedging relationship continues after the replacement of a swap counterparty or a swap counterparty s credit support provider. The adoption of the above statements had no impact on these financial statements. DRAFT - 49-6/21/2013

Notes to the Basic Financial Statements For the Year Ended December 31, 2012 FRANKLIN COUNTY, OHIO Note 2 Changes in Accounting Principles and Restatement of Budgetary Fund Balance (Continued) During the year, the County also adopted the following GASB Statements. Statement No. 63, Financial Reporting of Deferred Outflows of Resources, Deferred Inflows of Resources, and Net Position. This Statement provides financial reporting guidance for deferred outflows of resources and deferred inflows of resources. Statement No. 65, Items Previously Reported as Assets and Liabilities. This Statement establishes accounting and financial reporting standards that reclassify, as deferred outflows of resources or deferred inflows of resources, certain items that were previously reported as assets and liabilities and recognizes, as outflows of resources or inflows of resources, certain items that were previously reported as assets and liabilities. As a result of adopting Statements No. 63 and No. 65, debt issuance costs are no longer deferred but treated as an expense in the year incurred. Rather than restating beginning balances as a result of this change in accounting principle, the remaining debt issuance costs were expensed in the current year. The additional amount of expense reported in these financial statements was $1,824,000 for Governmental Activities and $60,000 for Business-type Activities. Other pronouncements (listed below) have been issued by the GASB. The County intends to adopt these pronouncements at the required time. The County has not determined the effect that adoption of these statements will have on its financial statements. GASB Statement No. 66, Technical Corrections 2012 an amendment of GASB Statements No. 10 and No. 62 effective for financial statements for periods beginning after December 15, 2012. GASB Statement No. 67, Financial Reporting for Pension Plans an amendment of GASB Statement No. 25 effective for financial statements for periods beginning after June 15, 2013. GASB Statement No. 68, Accounting and Financial Reporting for Pensions an amendment of GASB Statement No. 27 effective for financial statements for periods beginning after June 15, 2014. GASB Statement No. 69, Government Combinations and Disposals of Government Operations effective for governmental combinations and disposals of government operations occurring in financial statements for periods beginning after December 15, 2013. During the year, the County determined that the ADAMH Board Special Revenue Fund s fund balance on the Statement of Revenues, Expenditures and Changes in Fund Balance Budget and Actual was misstated. The previously reported Fund Balance Budget and Actual at December 31, 2011 of $64,375,000 was reduced by a correction of $3,967,000, which resulted in a restated Fund Balance Budget and Actual at December 31, 2011 of $60,408,000. DRAFT - 50-6/21/2013

Notes to the Basic Financial Statements For the Year Ended December 31, 2012 Note 3 Budgetary Information and Compliance FRANKLIN COUNTY, OHIO In accordance with Ohio law, annual budgets are adopted for the General Fund, special revenue funds, the Debt Service fund, capital projects funds, and proprietary funds. The Franklin County Budget Commission, composed of the Auditor, Treasurer and Prosecutor, approves tax budgets and certificates of estimated resources for the County itself and for schools, municipalities, townships and other agencies that are funded by tax dollars. The certificate of estimated resources issued by the Budget Commission states the projected revenue of each fund and establishes a limit on the amount the County may appropriate. The County s total contemplated expenditures from any fund during the fiscal year cannot exceed the amount available as stated in the certificate of estimated resources. On or about January 1, the certificate of estimated resources is amended to include any unencumbered fund balances from the preceding year. During the year, as actual revenues vary from the estimates, the certificate may be amended further if an estimate needs either to be increased or decreased. Such amendments were made during 2012. The amounts reported as the original budget reflect the amounts in the amended certificate of estimated resources in place on the date the operating budget is adopted. The amounts reported as the final budgeted amounts in the budgetary statements reflect the amounts in the final amended certificate issued during 2012. The appropriations resolution is the Commissioners authorization to spend resources. The resolution sets annual limits on expenditures plus encumbrances at the major object level within a fund, thereby establishing the legal level of control. The Commissioners passed the 2012 appropriation resolution on December 20, 2011. Revisions to the original budget require a resolution signed by at least two Commissioners. Supplemental appropriations were made during 2012. At the end of the year, all encumbrances are canceled and all appropriations lapse, reverting to the respective funds from which they were appropriated. There were certain items of noncompliance with the ORC. Under Ohio law, budgetary appropriations may not exceed estimated resources, with a balanced budget maintained in each fund. Ohio law also mandates that appropriations may not exceed actual resources. One major governmental fund and four nonmajor governmental funds had negative fund balances on the GAAP basis. The deficits were due to the timing of intergovernmental revenue and temporary financing through loans from the General Fund. The Veterans Memorial Hall, a discretely presented component unit, also carried a deficit balance. The County reports financial position, results of operations and changes in fund balance based on GAAP. State law also requires the County to account for transactions on a non-gaap budgetary basis of cash receipts, cash disbursements and encumbrances. The major differences between the non-gaap budgetary basis and the GAAP basis are that: 1. Revenues are recorded when received in cash (budget) as opposed to when susceptible to accrual (GAAP). 2. Expenditures/expenses are recorded when paid in cash (budget) as opposed to when the liability is incurred (GAAP). 3. Borrowing arrangements between funds are treated as revenues and expenditures (budget) as opposed to increases and decreases in assets and liabilities (GAAP). DRAFT - 51-6/21/2013

Notes to the Basic Financial Statements For the Year Ended December 31, 2012 FRANKLIN COUNTY, OHIO Note 3 Budgetary Information and Compliance (Continued) The statement of revenues, expenditures and changes in fund balances budget and actual (non-gaap budgetary basis) is presented in the basic financial statements for the General Fund and major special revenue funds. Adjustments necessary to reconcile the results of operations at the end of the year between the GAAP basis and the non-gaap budgetary basis are as follows: Net Change in Fund Balance (Deficit) General and Major Special Revenue Funds (Amounts in 000's) Children Services ADAMH Public General FCBDD Board Board Assistance GAAP basis $ (18,076) $ (2,039) $ (6,507) $ 11,557 $ (2,216) Net adjustment for revenue accruals (1,688) (724) (53) 1,290 2,644 Net adjustment for expenditure accruals 3,994 449 71 737 (306) Differences in reporting for interfund balances 3,029 - - - 26 Funds budgeted as Special Revenue Funds (1,636) - - - - Non-GAAP budgetary basis $ (14,377) $ (2,314) $ (6,489) $ 13,584 $ 148 Note 4 Cash, Deposits and Investments Moneys held by the County are classified by state statute into two categories. Active moneys are public moneys determined to be necessary to meet current demand upon the County treasury. Active moneys must be maintained either as cash in the County treasury, in commercial accounts payable or able to be withdrawn on demand, or in money market deposit accounts. Moneys held by the County that are not considered active are classified as inactive. Inactive moneys are invested in authorized securities in accordance with the Franklin County Treasurer Investment and Depository Policy, as adopted by majority vote of the Investment Advisory Committee. A. Primary Government Deposits: Deposits include amounts held in demand accounts and savings accounts. At year-end, the carrying amount of the County s deposits was $54,126,000. The bank balances totaled $59,162,000. DRAFT - 52-6/21/2013

Notes to the Basic Financial Statements For the Year Ended December 31, 2012 FRANKLIN COUNTY, OHIO Note 4 Cash, Deposits and Investments (Continued) Custodial credit risk is the risk that, in the event of a bank failure, the government s deposits may not be returned. Protection of the County's deposits is provided by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC), by eligible securities pledged by the financial institution as security for repayment, by letter of credit deposited with the County Treasurer by the financial institution or by a single collateral pool established by the financial institution to secure the repayment of all public moneys deposited with the institution. Of the bank balances totaling $59,162,000, $26,069,000 was insured by FDIC. The remaining balance of $33,093,000 was collateralized with securities held in single financial institution collateral pools in the name of the respective depository bank, and pledged as a pool of collateral against all the public moneys it holds. All County demand deposits were either insured or collateralized, in accordance with state law and the County s investment policy. The County has no deposit policy for custodial credit risk beyond the requirements of state statute. Investments: The following securities are authorized investments under both the County s policy and the ORC: 1. United States Treasury notes, bills, bonds, or other obligation or security issued by the Treasury, any other obligation guaranteed as to principal and interest by the U. S., or any book entry, zerocoupon security that is a direct obligation of the United States. 2. Bonds, notes, debentures, or any other obligations or securities issued directly by any federal government agency or instrumentality. 3. Bonds and other obligations of the State of Ohio or its political subdivisions, provided that such political subdivisions are located wholly or partly within the County and the investments shall not exceed five percent of the County s total average portfolio. 4. The State Treasurer's investment pool (STAR Ohio). 5. No-load money market mutual funds consisting exclusively of obligations described in (1) or (2) and repurchase agreements secured by such obligations, provided that the investments are made only through eligible institutions and the investments shall not exceed fifty percent of the County s total average portfolio. 6. Up to fifteen percent of the County s total average portfolio in high-grade notes issued by U. S. corporations, and the notes mature no later than two years after purchase. 7. Up to twenty-five percent of the County s total average portfolio in either of the following: a. High grade commercial paper when the aggregate value of the notes does not exceed ten percent of the aggregate value of the outstanding commercial paper of the issuing corporation, and the notes mature no later than 270 days after purchase. b. Bankers acceptances of banks insured by the FDIC when the obligations are eligible for purchase by the Federal Reserve System and mature no later than 180 days after purchase. DRAFT - 53-6/21/2013

Notes to the Basic Financial Statements For the Year Ended December 31, 2012 FRANKLIN COUNTY, OHIO Note 4 Cash, Deposits and Investments (Continued) 8. High-grade debt interests issued by foreign nations diplomatically recognized by the U.S. government. All interest and principal shall be denominated and payable in U.S. funds. In the aggregate, this investment shall not exceed one percent of a two-year rolling average of the County s portfolio, and shall mature no later than five years after purchase. 9. Written repurchase agreements in the securities described in (1) or (2) provided that the market value of the agreement be at least two percent and be marked to market daily, and that the term of the agreement must not exceed thirty days. Investments in derivative securities, reverse repurchase agreements and collateralized mortgage obligations are prohibited. The issuance of taxable notes for the purpose of arbitrage, the use of leverage and purchases on margin or short sale are also prohibited. An investment must mature within five years from the date of purchase unless matched to a specific County obligation or debt. As of December 31, 2012, the primary government had the following investments (based on quoted market prices) and maturities: (Amounts in 000 s, Time in Years) Less % of Investment Type Fair Value than 1 1 2 2 5 Portfolio U.S. Treasuries $ 15,003 $ - $ 15,003 $ - 1.69% FHLB notes 68,309 37,752-30,557 7.70% FHLMC notes 143,520-20,043 123,477 16.17% FNMA notes 326,293 19,115 25,301 281,877 36.77% FFCB notes 288,991 48,541 61,032 179,418 32.57% Foreign bonds 8,500 2,000 3,500 3,000 0.96% County municipal bonds 26,598-2,625 23,973 3.00% Commercial paper 1,734 1,734 - - 0.20% STAR Ohio 2,407 2,407 - - 0.27% Money markets 6,013 6,013 - - 0.67% Total investments $ 887,368 $ 117,562 $ 127,504 $ 642,302 100.00% Interest rate risk: The ORC and the Investment and Depository Policy of the County limit the purchase of securities to those with a maturity of no more than five years from the date of purchase unless matched to a specific obligation or debt of the County. Credit risk: The ORC limits investments in commercial paper, corporate bonds and mutual bond funds to the top two ratings issued by nationally recognized statistical rating organizations at the time of purchase. All federal agency notes had a rating of AAA from Standard & Poor s, and Aaa from Moody s. The State of Israel Bonds were rated A by Standard & Poor s, and Aa by Moody s. Standard & Poor s has assigned STAR Ohio an AAAm money market rating. The County had investments in two other money market accounts at year-end, each rated AAAm by Standard & Poor s and Aaa by Moody s. DRAFT - 54-6/21/2013

Notes to the Basic Financial Statements For the Year Ended December 31, 2012 FRANKLIN COUNTY, OHIO Note 4 Cash, Deposits and Investments (Continued) Concentration of credit risk: The County s investment policy provides for diversification to avoid undue concentration in securities of one type or securities of one financial institution. This restriction does not apply to obligations guaranteed by the U.S. government. Of the County s total investments, 16.17 percent are FHLMC notes, 36.77 percent are FNMA notes and 32.57 percent are FFCB notes. All other investment types are less than ten percent of the County s total investments. Custodial credit risk: For an investment, the custodial credit risk is the risk that, in the event of the failure of the counterparty to a transaction, the County will not be able to recover the value of the investments or collateral securities that are in the possession of an outside party. In order to mitigate custodial risk, the County purchases its investments only through an approved broker/dealer or institution. Further, payment for investments is made only upon delivery of the securities representing the investments to the Treasurer or qualified trustee or, if the securities are not represented by a certificate, upon receipt of confirmation of transfer from the custodian. B. Component Units Deposits: All monies are deposited into banks or investment companies designated by each component unit s governing board. Funds not needed for immediate expenditure may be deposited in interest bearing or non-interest bearing accounts, or U.S. government obligations. Security shall be furnished for all deposits, whether interest bearing or non-interest bearing, except that no such security is required for U.S. government obligations. Custodial risk is the risk that, in the event of bank failure, the deposits of the component unit might not be recovered. At December 31, 2012, discretely presented component units held demand deposits with a carrying value of $3,125,000. The bank balances totaled $3,341,000. All bank balances, with the exception of $283,000, were insured by FDIC as the financial institutions participate in the Temporary Liquidity Guarantee Program. Investments: As of December 31, 2012, the component units had the following investments (based on quoted market prices) and maturities (where applicable): (Amounts in 000 s, Time in Years) Less % of Investment Type Fair Value than 1 Portfolio Corporate bonds $ 3,300 $ 3,300 46.12% Managed equity account 1,352 1,352 18.89% Mutual funds 1,773 1,773 24.77% Money markets 94 94 1.31% Cash surrender value of life insurance 638 638 8.91% Total investments $ 7,157 $ 7,157 100.00% Interest rate risk: The component units do not have policies limiting investment maturities as a means of managing exposure to fair value losses arising from increasing interest rates, except for ARC Industries, which limits fixed income securities to maturity of fifteen years. DRAFT - 55-6/21/2013

Notes to the Basic Financial Statements For the Year Ended December 31, 2012 FRANKLIN COUNTY, OHIO Note 4 Cash, Deposits and Investments (Continued) Credit risk: ARC Industries limits investments so that average rating is between BBB and AAA based on the type of investment. No other component units place a limit on the ratings of their securities other than the ORC requirements. ARC Industries corporate bonds have an A rating, bond mutual funds have implied AAA ratings, and money markets have an A+ rating. Concentration of credit risk: The component units do not place a limit on the amount that may be invested in any one issuer. Custodial credit risk: For an investment, the custodial credit risk is the risk that, in the event of the failure of the counterparty to a transaction, the component unit will not be able to recover the value of the investments or collateral securities that are in the possession of an outside party.

Notes to the Basic Financial Statements For the Year Ended December 31, 2012 Note 6 Property Taxes FRANKLIN COUNTY, OHIO Property taxes are levied against all real and public utility property in Franklin County. Real property taxes for 2012 are levied after October 1, 2012. The lien date is as of January 1, 2012. The tax is based on the assessed value of the property and is established by state law at 35 percent of the appraised value. Real property taxes for 2011 are collected in 2012 and are intended to finance 2012 expenditures. The total assessed value upon which the 2012 real estate tax collection was based was $25,648,101,000. The full tax rate for the 2012 collection applied to real property for all County units was $17.72 per $1,000 of assessed valuation. Due to the phase out which began in 2005, the tangible personal property tax percentage was reduced to zero in 2009 for businesses. The tax temporarily applied to telephone and interexchange telecommunications companies, which was phased out for 2011. After 2011, tangible personal property was not subject to tax. Public utility real property is subject to tax. The total assessed value upon which the 2012 tax collection was based was $654,908,000. The County Treasurer bills and collects property taxes on behalf of all taxing districts within Franklin County. The Auditor periodically remits to the taxing districts their portion of the taxes collected. Collection of the taxes and remittance to the taxing districts are accounted for in various County agency funds. Property taxes receivable represents delinquent real property, tangible personal property, and public utility taxes outstanding as of the last settlement, and current real property and public utility taxes that were measurable at year-end for which there is an enforceable legal claim. In the fund financial statements, receivables are offset by unearned revenue since these taxes were not levied to finance 2011 operations. In the full accrual government-wide financial statements, collectible delinquent property taxes have been recorded as revenue while the remainder of the receivable is unearned. The County uses actual billings to estimate taxes receivable by using an estimate based on the tax rate multiplied by property value. The collection of substantially all real property and public utility taxes both current and delinquent is reasonably assured because of the County's ability to force foreclosure of the properties on which the taxes are levied. For tangible personal property taxes, a determination of the percentage deemed collectible was made based on past experience. This percentage was applied against the gross taxes receivable to yield the estimated net realizable value of these resources. DRAFT - 60-6/21/2013

Funds Used to Retire Long-term Liabilities All general obligation bonds are supported by the full faith and credit of the County. General obligation bonds will be paid with $246,085,000 from taxes, and the remainder from lease revenues (Note 8), user charges and payments received on the SWACO and CRAA loans including portions of the Series 2005 Refunding (Note 7). Compensated absences liabilities will be paid from the fund from which the employee s salary is paid. Typically the General Fund and the Board of Developmental Disabilities Fund have been used in prior years to liquidate the liability for compensated absences. Capital lease obligations will be paid from the fund that supports the department using the underlying asset, also typical of past treatment. The taxable special obligations (the Stadium Facility Bonds and the Stadium Facility Note ) in the amount of $35,495,000 are not general obligations of the County, but are payable solely from the proceeds derived from the operation, lease, sale, or other disposition of a County park and recreation facility, including a baseball stadium and from the following non-tax revenue sources that are deposited in the County s General Fund: (i) fines and forfeitures, (ii) fees imposed from licenses and permits, (iii) investment earning on any fund or account of the County, including the County s General Fund, that are credited to the County s General Fund, (iv) proceeds from the sale of capital assets, (v) charges for services, and (vi) other revenues, including but not limited to, rental income, gifts and donations and payments received as reimbursement (the Pledged Revenues ). Annual principal and interest payments on the special obligations are expected to require less than 27.3 percent of the pledged revenues within the County s General Fund. Other than the retirement of notes described in Note 10.B., there were principal payments of $700,000 in 2012. Interest charges amounted to $1,531,000, while pledged revenue amounted to $69,329,000. The County has covenanted to appropriate each year a sufficient amount of the Pledged Revenues to pay the debt service required in such year. DRAFT - 73-6/21/2013

Notes to the Basic Financial Statements For the Year Ended December 31, 2012 Note 10 Long-term Liabilities (Continued) FRANKLIN COUNTY, OHIO From the original proceeds of the Stadium Facility Bonds and Notes, $4,100,000 was deposited in the Stadium Debt Service fund to be applied to the payment of interest during the construction phase of the project. As of December 31, 2012, the fund balance of the Stadium Debt Service fund is $410,000. In addition, the Commissioners have designated $3,644,000 of the fund balance in the General Fund to secure the pledge for the payment of the debt service on the special obligations from the County s Pledged Revenues. F. Debt Limitations The ORC provides that the net general obligation debt of the County, exclusive of certain exempt debt, issued without a vote of the electors should not exceed one percent of the total assessed valuation of the County. The ORC further provides that the total voted and unvoted net debt of the County less the same exempt debt should not exceed a sum equal to three percent of the first $100,000,000 of the assessed valuation, plus one and one-half percent of such valuation in excess of $100,000,000 and not in excess of $300,000,000, plus two and one-half percent of such valuation in excess of $300,000,000. The effects of the debt limitations at December 31, 2012, are an overall debt margin of $437,906,000 and an unvoted debt margin of $47,545,000. G. Defeased Bonds In 1993, the County defeased certain general obligation bonds by placing the proceeds of new bonds in an irrevocable trust to provide for all future debt service payments on the old bonds. Accordingly, the trust account assets and the liability for the defeased bonds are not included in the County's financial statements. At December 31, 2012, $46,120,000 remained outstanding on the defeased bonds from the 1993 refunding. H. Optional Redemption Certain bonds issued by the County are subject to redemption at the County s option. When partial redemption of any of the following bonds is authorized, the bond registrar will select bonds or portions thereof by lot within a maturity in such manner as the bond registrar may determine, provided, however, that the portion of any bond so selected will be in the amount of $5,000 or an integral multiple thereof. In each case, accrued interest will be paid to the date fixed for redemption. The following schedule summarizes the bond issues subject to optional redemption, the relevant maturity dates, the redemption dates and the redemption rates: DRAFT - 74-6/21/2013

Notes to the Basic Financial Statements For the Year Ended December 31, 2012 Note 12 Contingencies and Commitments A. Contingent Liabilities FRANKLIN COUNTY, OHIO The County has received federal and state grants for specific purposes that are subject to review and audit by the grantor agencies or their designee. At December 31, 2012, the audits of certain programs had not been completed. These audits could lead to a request for reimbursement to the grantor agency for expenditures disallowed under terms of the grant. Based on prior experience, the County believes such disallowances, if any, will be immaterial. Several claims and lawsuits are pending against the County. The Prosecuting Attorney has used his best judgment as legal counsel for the County to estimate the possible liability that the County could incur. $23,000 has been accrued to offset expected liability arising from the current pending lawsuits. By resolution, the Commissioners have designated amounts in the fund balance of the General Fund to be used for expenditures in future years. $14,517,000 has been set aside for rainy day purposes. In addition, the Commissioners have committed $3,644,000 to secure the pledge for the payment of debt service on the Stadium Facility Bonds and Note. B. Commitments The County had several outstanding capital projects as of December 31, 2012, including software development projects and various construction projects. The projects include the following major commitments: (Amounts in 000's) Spent to Commitment Project Phase Date Remaining Hall of Justice remodeling Construction $ 7,901 $ 3,563 Children Services building Construction 2,128 13,223 Road and bridge projects Construction 40,628 8,743 Software development Development 2,806 387 Engineer's building Construction 4,154 102 $ 57,617 $ 26,018 The County has continued to honor commitments made in prior years including a long-term commitment whereby the County has agreed to contribute approximately $4,340,000 to the Columbus Regional Airport Authority annually through 2012. DRAFT - 77-6/25/2013

Notes to the Basic Financial Statements For the Year Ended December 31, 2012 Note 13 Risk Management FRANKLIN COUNTY, OHIO The County is exposed to various risks of loss related to torts and general liability; theft of, damage to and destruction of assets; natural disasters; errors and omissions; health care claims for employees and their eligible dependents; and injuries to employees. Insurance policies are procured for commercial crime, flood, buildings and contents, equipment, boilers and machinery. In addition, a Commercial Crime and Public Employees Dishonesty policy is in effect for certain agencies that deal with large amounts of cash, and a Faithful Performance Blanket bond is in place for all County employees. Medical malpractice insurance is purchased for claims involving inmate medical care. Settled claims have not exceeded commercial coverage in any of the past three years. There has not been a significant reduction in coverage from the prior year. The County has elected to retain risk for losses related to torts, general and excess liability, and automobile casualty rather than insuring those risks through a third-party. Employee health care claims are self-insured, with purchased stop-loss coverage of $1,000,000 per individual for the calendar year. The County purchases workers compensation insurance from the State of Ohio to cover employees and auxiliary staff. A. Self-insurance for General Liability The County's General Fund provides unlimited coverage for court judgments resulting from tort and general liability claims of County officials and employees. The County does not use actuaries to determine possible claims liability, nor are any interfund premiums charged. However, the County incorporates nonincremental claims adjustments when setting the annual budget amount for claims, judgments and settlements. The Commissioners appropriated $500,000 within the General Fund in 2012 to satisfy court-ordered judgments, self-insured claims or other settlements. The actual claims paid during 2012 totaled $178,000. It is estimated that $23,000 claims and judgments will be due within one year. $1,687,000 of the General Fund s fund balance has been designated for unasserted claims. B. Self-insurance for Health Benefits The County provides multiple health care benefit plans that cover approximately 4,900 County employees. Approximately 1,500 employees of other political subdivisions are also in the County s insurance program. Coverage is extended to eligible dependents. Costs are allocated to the fund that pays the salary of the enrolled employee. These payments are accounted for as expenditures in the paying funds and as fees and charges for services in the Employee Benefits internal service fund from which the claims are paid. An estimate of amounts to be paid for claims incurred but not reported (IBNR) as of year-end has been developed by the County in conjunction with an actuary, based on appropriate standards of practice promulgated by the Actuarial Standards Board. At December 31, 2012, accounts payable balances included $1,449,000 of reported, unpaid County claims and $5,267,000 as an estimate for IBNR. Actual claims experience may differ from the estimate. Given the nature of health benefits, the County predicts that the entire liability will be paid within one year. As such, the entire claims liability is a current liability. The Comprehensive Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1986 requires the County to offer terminated or retired employees continued participation in the County's employee health care benefits program, provided that the employees pay the rate established by the plan administrator. DRAFT - 78-6/21/2013

Notes to the Basic Financial Statements For the Year Ended December 31, 2012 Note 13 Risk Management (Continued) C. Workers Compensation FRANKLIN COUNTY, OHIO Prior to 2012, the County solely reimbursed the Ohio Bureau of Workers' Compensation for the cost of injured workers' claims. All County agencies participate in the program and make payments for prior and current year claims. Because the plan is retrospectively rated, payments will be made in future periods for injuries sustained during 2012 and prior years. Beginning in 2012 the County began to self-insure its workers compensation costs. Charges are established based on an independent actuarial evaluation, and are designed to be sufficient to cover all incurred claims and maintain a reserve for this self-insurance arrangement. If the reserve is insufficient at any point in time to cover claims, the claims will be covered by the County s General Fund with adjustments made to future charge rates. The County is the only participant and activities related to the program are reported in the Employee Benefits internal service fund. At December 31, 2012, the long-term liability for Workers Compensation claims was estimated to be $5,140,000, a net decrease of $1,160,000 from the estimate as of December 31, 2011. The County has designated $6,310,000 of the General Fund s fund balance for these future payments. D. Summary When it is probable that a loss has occurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated, the liability is reported in the fund. The result of the process to estimate the claims liability is not an exact amount as it depends on many complex factors. Accordingly, claims liabilities are reevaluated periodically to consider the effects of inflation, recent claim settlement trends (including frequency and amount of pay-outs) and other economic and social factors. The estimate of the claims liabilities includes amounts for incremental claim adjustment expenses related to specific claims and other claim adjustment expenses regardless of whether allocated to specific claims. Liabilities also include an amount for estimated IBNR claims. Changes in claims liabilities for the various plans during 2011 and 2012 were as follows: (Amounts in 000 s) General Health Workers Liability Benefits Compensation Total Unpaid claims at 01/01/11 $ 127 $ 8,667 $ 6,392 $ 15,186 2011 net change in claims estimate - - (92) (92) 2011 incurred claims & IBNR 365 76,310 2,374 79,049 2011 paid claims (485) (78,020) (2,374) (80,879) Unpaid claims at 12/31/11 7 6,957 6,300 13,264 2012 net change in claims estimate - - (1,160) (1,160) 2012 incurred claims & IBNR 194 80,102 1,581 81,877 2012 paid claims (178) (80,343) (1,581) (82,102) Unpaid claims at 12/31/12 $ 23 $ 6,716 $ 5,140 $ 11,879 DRAFT - 79-6/21/2013

Notes to the Basic Financial Statements For the Year Ended December 31, 2012 Note 13 Risk Management (Continued) FRANKLIN COUNTY, OHIO The County analyzes all outstanding and potential claims that have arisen or could arise due to the occurrence of a loss contingency on or before December 31, 2012. Those claims that are judged to have a high probability of requiring a settlement and for which the amount required to settle the claim is reasonably estimable are shown as liabilities. Those claims for which the liability cannot be reasonably estimated or which are judged not to have a high probability of settlement are not displayed as liabilities on the balance sheet, but are discussed in Note 12. Note 14 Defined Benefit Retirement Plans A. Ohio Public Employees Retirement System Ohio Public Employees Retirement System (OPERS) administers three separate pension plans. The authority to establish and amend benefits is provided in Chapter 145 of the Ohio Revised Code. The three plans are described below: Traditional Pension (TP) Plan a cost-sharing, multiple-employer defined benefit pension plan. OPERS provides retirement, disability, survivor and death benefits, and annual cost of living adjustments to members of the TP Plan. Member-Directed (MD) Plan a defined contribution plan in which the member invests both member and employer contributions (employer contributions vest over five years at 20 percent per year). Under the MD Plan, members accumulate retirement assets equal to the value of member and vested employer contributions, plus any investment earnings. Members of the MD Plan do not qualify for ancillary benefits. Combined (CO) Plan a cost-sharing, multiple-employer defined benefit pension plan. Under the CO Plan, OPERS invests employer contributions to provide a formula retirement benefit similar in nature to, but less than, the TP Plan benefit. Member contributions, the investment of which is self-directed by the members, accumulate retirement assets in a manner similar to the MD Plan. OPERS provides retirement, disability, survivor and death benefits, and annual cost of living adjustments to members of the CO Plan. The Ohio Revised Code provides statutory authority for member and employer contributions. For 2012, member and employer contribution rates were consistent across all three plans. Members in the law enforcement and public safety divisions exist only within the TP Plan. The 2012 contribution rate for members, other than those engaged in law enforcement and public safety, was 10.0 percent of covered payroll.

B. State Teachers Retirement System of Ohio The County also contributes to State Teachers Retirement System of Ohio (STRS Ohio), a cost-sharing, multiple-employer public employee retirement system. STRS Ohio is a statewide retirement plan for licensed teachers and other faculty members employed in the public schools of Ohio or any school, community school, college, university, institution or other agency controlled, managed and supported, in whole or in part, by the state or any political subdivision thereof. New members have a choice of three retirement plan options. In addition to the Defined Benefit (DB) Plan, new members are offered a Defined Contribution (DC) Plan and a Combined Plan. The DC Plan allows members to allocate their member contributions and employer contributions equal to 10.5 percent of earned compensation among various investment choices. The Combined Plan offers features of the DC Plan and the DB Plan. In the Combined Plan, member contributions are allocated to investment choices by the member, and employer contributions are used to fund a defined benefit payment at a reduced level from the regular DB Plan. Contributions into the DC Plan and the Combined Plan are credited to member accounts as employers submit their payroll information to STRS Ohio, generally on a biweekly basis. DC and Combined Plan members will transfer to the DB Plan during their fifth year of membership unless they permanently select the DC or Combined Plan. DRAFT - 81-6/25/2013

Notes to the Basic Financial Statements For the Year Ended December 31, 2012 FRANKLIN COUNTY, OHIO Note 14 Defined Benefit Retirement Plans (Continued) STRS Ohio administers three separate pension plans: Defined Benefit (DB) Plan Plan benefits are established under Chapter 3307 of the Revised Code. Any member may retire who has (i) five years of service credit and attained age 60; (ii) 25 years of service credit and attained age 55; or (iii) 30 years of service credit regardless of age. The annual retirement allowance, payable for life, is the greater of the formula benefit or the money-purchase benefit calculation. Under the formula benefit, the retirement allowance is based on years of credited service and final average salary, which is the average of the member s three highest salary years. The annual allowance is calculated by using a base percentage of 2.2 percent multiplied by the total number of years of service credit (including Ohio-valued purchased credit) times the final average salary. The 31 st year of earned Ohio service credit is calculated at 2.5 percent. An additional one-tenth of a percent is added to the calculation for every year of earned Ohio service over 31 years (2.6 percent for 32 years, 2.7 percent for 33 years and so on) until 100 percent of the final average salary is reached. For members with 35 or more years of Ohio contributing service, the first 30 years will be calculated at 2.5 percent instead of 2.2 percent. Under the money-purchase benefit calculation, a member s lifetime contributions plus interest at specified rates are matched by an equal amount from other STRS Ohio funds. This total is then divided by an actuarially determined annuity factor to determine the maximum annual retirement allowance. Defined Contribution (DC) Plan Benefits are established under Sections 3307.80 to 3307.89 of the Revised Code. For members who select the DC Plan, all member contributions and employer contributions at a rate of 10.5 percent are placed in an investment account. The member determines how to allocate the member and employer money among various investment choices. A member is eligible to receive a retirement benefit at age 50 and termination of employment. The member may elect to receive a lifetime monthly annuity or a lump-sum withdrawal. Employer contributions into members accounts are vested after the first anniversary of the first day of paid service. Members of the DC Plan who become disabled are entitled only to their account balance. If a member dies before retirement benefits begin, the member s designated beneficiary is entitled to receive the member s account balance. DRAFT - 82-6/21/2013

Notes to the Basic Financial Statements For the Year Ended December 31, 2012 FRANKLIN COUNTY, OHIO Note 14 Defined Benefit Retirement Plans (Continued) Combined (CO) Plan Member contributions are allocated by the member, and employer contributions are used to fund a defined benefit payment. A member s defined benefit is determined by multiplying 1 percent of the member s final average salary by the member s years of service credit. The defined benefit portion of the Combined Plan payment is payable to a member on or after age 60. The defined contribution portion of the account may be taken as a lump sum or converted to a lifetime monthly annuity at age 50. A retiree of STRS Ohio or another Ohio public retirement system is eligible for reemployment as a teacher following the elapse of two months from the date of retirement. Contributions are made by the reemployed member and employer during the reemployment. Upon termination of reemployment or age 65, whichever comes later, the retiree is eligible for an annuity benefit or equivalent lump-sum payment in addition to the original retirement allowance. A reemployed retiree may alternatively receive a refund of only member contributions with interest before age 65, once employment is terminated. Benefits are increased annually by 3 percent of the original base amount for DB Plan participants. The DB and Combined Plans offer access to health care coverage to eligible retirees who participated in the plans and their eligible dependents. Coverage under the current program includes hospitalization, physicians fees, prescription drugs and partial reimbursement of monthly Medicare Part B premiums. By Ohio law, health care benefits are not guaranteed. A DB or Combined Plan member with five or more years credited service who becomes disabled may qualify for a disability benefit. Eligible spouses and dependents of members who die before retirement may qualify for survivor benefits. A death benefit of $1,000 is payable to the beneficiary of each deceased retired member who participated in the DB Plan. Death benefit coverage up to $2,000 can be purchased by participants in the DB, DC or Combined Plans. Various other benefits are available to members beneficiaries. Chapter 3307 of the Revised Code provides statutory authority for member and employer contributions. Contribution rates are established by the State Teachers Retirement Board, upon recommendations of its consulting actuary, not to exceed statutory maximum rates of 10 percent for members and 14 percent for employers. Actual contributions during 2012 were made equal to the statutory maximum rates. The County s contributions to STRS Ohio for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 were approximately $1,366,000, $1,431,000, and $1,452,000, respectively. The full amounts have been contributed for 2012, 2011 and 2010. STRS Ohio issues a stand-alone financial report. A copy can be obtained by writing to STRS Ohio, 275 E. Broad St., Columbus, OH 43215-3771, by calling toll-free 1-888-227-7877, or by visiting the STRS Ohio website at www.strsoh.org. DRAFT - 83-6/21/2013

Notes to the Basic Financial Statements For the Year Ended December 31, 2012 Note 15 Postemployment Benefits A. Ohio Public Employees Retirement System FRANKLIN COUNTY, OHIO OPERS administers three separate pension plans (see Note 14.A.): the Traditional Pension Plan a cost sharing, multi-employer defined benefit pension plan; the Member-Directed Plan a defined contribution plan; and the Combined Plan a cost-sharing, multi-employer defined benefit pension plan that has elements of both a defined benefit and defined contribution plan. OPERS maintains a cost-sharing multiple employer defined benefit post-employment health care plan, which includes a medical plan, prescription drug program and Medicare Part B premium reimbursement, to qualifying members of both the Traditional Pension and the Combined Plans. Members of the Member-Directed Plan do not qualify for ancillary benefits, including post-employment health care coverage. In order to qualify for post-retirement health care coverage, age and service retirees under the Traditional Pension and Combined Plans must have ten or more years of qualifying Ohio service credit. Health care coverage for disability benefit recipients and qualified survivor benefit recipients is available. The health care coverage provided by OPERS meets the definition of an Other Postemployment Benefit (OPEB) as described in GASB Statement No. 45. The ORC permits, but does not mandate, OPERS to provide OPEB benefits to its eligible members and beneficiaries. Authority to establish and amend benefits is provided in ORC Chapter 145. The ORC provides the statutory authority requiring public employers to fund post retirement health care through contributions to OPERS. A portion of each employer s contribution to OPERS is set aside for the funding of post retirement health care benefits. Employer contribution rates are expressed as a percentage of the covered payroll of active members. In 2012, local government employers contributed at 14.00 percent of covered payroll, and public safety and law enforcement employers contributed at 18.10 percent. These are the maximum employer contribution rates permitted by the ORC. Active members do not make contributions to the OPEB Plan. OPERS Post Employment Health Care plan was established under, and is administrated in accordance with, Internal Revenue Code 401(h). Each year, the OPERS Board of Trustees determines the portion of the employer contribution rate that will be set aside for funding of post employment health care benefits. The portion of employer contributions allocated to health care for members in the Traditional Plan was 4.0 percent during calendar year 2012. The portion of employer contributions allocated to health care for members in the Combined Plan was 6.05 percent during calendar year 2012. The portion of employer contributions allocated to health care for the calendar year beginning January 1, 2013 remained the same, but they are subject to change based on Board action. Employers will be notified if the portion allocated to health care changes during the calendar year 2013. The OPERS Board of Trustees is also authorized to establish rules for the retiree, or their surviving beneficiaries, to pay a portion of the health care benefits provide. Payment amounts vary depending on the number of covered dependents and the coverage selected. DRAFT - 84-6/21/2013

Notes to the Basic Financial Statements For the Year Ended December 31, 2012 Note 15 Postemployment Benefits (Continued) FRANKLIN COUNTY, OHIO The County s actual contributions for 2012, 2011 and 2010, used to fund OPEB, were approximately $12,094,000, $12,307,000, and $15,705,000, respectively. Actual contributions represent 100 percent of required contributions. The Health Care Preservation Plan adopted by the OPERS Board of Trustees on September 9, 2004, was effective January 1, 2007. Member and employer contribution rates increased on January 1 of each year from 2006 to 2008. Rates for law and public safety employers increased over a six year period beginning on January 1, 2006, with a final rate increase on January 1, 2011. These rate increases allowed additional funds to be allocated to the health care plan. B. State Teachers Retirement System of Ohio STRS Ohio administers a pension plan that is comprised of: a Defined Benefit Plan; a self-directed Defined Contribution Plan, and a Combined Plan that is a hybrid of the Defined Benefit and Defined Contribution Plan. Ohio law authorizes STRS Ohio to offer a cost-sharing, multiple-employer health care plan. STRS Ohio provides access to health care coverage to eligible retirees who participated in the Defined Benefit or Combined Plans. Coverage under the current program includes hospitalization, physicians fees, prescription drugs and reimbursement of monthly Medicare Part B premiums. Pursuant to ORC Chapter 3307, the Retirement Board has discretionary authority over how much, if any, of the associated health care costs will be absorbed by STRS Ohio. All benefit recipients, for the most recent year, pay a portion of the health care costs in the form of a monthly premium. Under Ohio law, funding for post-employment health care may be deducted from employer contributions. Of the 14.00 percent employer contribution rate, 1.00 percent of covered payroll was allocated to postemployment health care for the years ended June 30, 2012, 2011, and 2010. The 14.00 percent employer contribution rate is the maximum rate established under Ohio law. The County s actual contributions for 2012, 2011 and 2010, used to fund OPEB were approximately $98,000, $102,000, and $104,000, respectively. DRAFT - 85-6/21/2013

Notes to the Basic Financial Statements For the Year Ended December 31, 2012 Note 16 Conduit Debt Obligations FRANKLIN COUNTY, OHIO From time to time, the County has issued Hospital, Housing and Industrial Revenue Bonds to provide financial assistance to private sector entities for the acquisition and construction of facilities deemed to be in the public interest.

Notes to the Basic Financial Statements For the Year Ended December 31, 2012 FRANKLIN COUNTY, OHIO Note 20 Related Organizations and Other Agreements (Continued) Columbus and Franklin County Metropolitan Park District The Columbus and Franklin County Metropolitan Park District (Metro Parks) was organized under ORC Chapter 1545. Metro Parks is a separate political subdivision and is governed by a three-member Board of Park Commissioners, appointed in a non-authoritative manner by the Franklin County Probate Judge. The Board of Park Commissioners adopts the annual budget. Metro Parks operations are autonomous. Franklin County Family and Children First Council The operation of the Franklin County Family and Children First Council is controlled by an oversight committee. The chair of the County Commissioners serves on the committee. The Franklin County Educational Service Center is the administrative agent for the Council. Franklin County Convention Facilities Authority The Commissioners appoint a majority of the board members of the Franklin County Convention Facilities Authority (CFA) but have no further accountability for it. The CFA is a separate and distinct legal entity. Neither the County nor the City of Columbus is responsible for the operation of CFA or of the Greater Columbus Convention Center (Convention Center). The CFA issued lease revenue bonds in 1990 to finance the construction of the Convention Center. Several bond issues have been completed since that date through which tax and lease revenue anticipation bonds were used to refund and refinance portions of the original and subsequent issues, and to finance further construction and renovations. In 2010, the CFA issued $160 million lease revenue anticipation bonds to finance a full-service convention center hotel. In 2011, the CFA issued $16 million in parking garage improvement bonds to finance the expansion of the Vine Street parking facility. In 2012, the CFA issued $42.5 million of tax and lease revenue anticipation refunding bonds for the purpose of refunding outstanding 2002 bonds to achieve interest cost savings. Also, in 2012, the CFA issued $10 million first lien arena lease revenue bonds to finance a portion of the purchase of Nationwide Arena and $44.2 million second lien arena lease revenue bonds to finance a portion of the purchase of Nationwide Arena and to finance other capital and operating activities. The total amount of these revenue bonds outstanding as of December 31, 2012, was $375,782,000 net of premiums and discounts of $712,000 or a gross amount of $376,494,000. For the bond issues prior to 2010, the bond issues and the facility were made possible through a lease/sublease agreement whereby the County and the City lease the facility from CFA and concurrently sub-lease it back to CFA. The lease rent charged by CFA equals the annual debt service amount, with each party paying an amount equal to one half the amount of the debt service on the revenue bonds. The sub-lease rent charged by the County and the City also equals the annual debt service amount, and is expected to be paid from hotel/motel tax revenues. The County, at its discretion and without incurring any penalty or further liability, may cancel the lease by not appropriating funds for the lease payment. The terms of the agreement provide many alternative plans for payment of the debt service in the event that the hotel/motel tax revenues prove insufficient. The County considers it highly unlikely that it will ever be faced with meeting CFA s debt service. The Convention Center Lease special revenue fund records the lease and sub-lease payments made and received by the County. DRAFT - 90-6/21/2013

Notes to the Basic Financial Statements For the Year Ended December 31, 2012 FRANKLIN COUNTY, OHIO Note 20 Related Organizations and Other Agreements (Continued) In conjunction with the 2010 bond issue, the CFA has agreed to lease the project to the County and the County has agreed to sublease the project back to the CFA. The lease requires the County to pay rent to the CFA equal to the aggregate principal and interest required to be paid on the Series 2010 bonds. Under the sublease, the CFA has agreed to make rental payments to the County for the same amount. In December 2011, the County authorized the execution and delivery of a lease and a sub-lease agreement with the CFA and the City for the purpose of financing the purchase of Nationwide Arena and future improvements thereto and to approve loan agreements with the State of Ohio, and the issuance of Arena Lease Revenue Anticipation Bonds by FCA for such purposes. Pursuant to the lease, the County will make a rental payment in an amount equal to a percentage of the revenue it receives from the casino tax collected by the State and distributed to the County. The percentage of casino tax receipts to be paid as rent is as follows: Year Percentage 2013 through 2015 25% 2016 26% 2017 27% 2018 28% 2019 29% 2020 30% 2021 31% 2022 and thereafter 32% Central Ohio Community Improvement Corporation The Commissioners are responsible for the appointments of two of the seven trustees for the Central Ohio Community Improvement Corporation; the Treasurer makes one appointment. The County has no further accountability for this organization. Friends of the Shelter Friends of the Shelter is a not-for-profit organization with a self-appointing board. Money raised by Friends of the Shelter supports various programs at the Franklin County Animal Shelter. The amount of funding is immaterial to the Dog and Kennel special revenue fund. The County is not financially accountable for the organization, nor does the County approve the organization s budget. Note 21 Subsequent Events On February 12, 2013, the County issued taxable special obligation notes in the amount of $8 million for the purpose of retiring the Series 2012 Stadium Facility Project Notes. Huntington Investment Company, a party with a vested interest in the Huntington Park stadium, held the old notes and purchased the new notes. Huntington National Bank has entered into a sponsorship agreement with the Stadium and Team, whereby in exchange for naming rights, the bank will provide $9 million over twenty years. On April 9, 2013, the County authorized the issuance of limited tax bonds in an amount not to exceed $182,235,000, for the purpose of providing funds to refund certain outstanding general obligation bonds of the County. On April 23, 2013, the County authorized the County Administrator to enter into a loan agreement with the Ohio Air Quality Development Authority for the financing of various energy conservation measures in an amount not to exceed $10 million.
