The Board of Directors of Midpeninsula Regional Open Space District does hereby accept the offer contained in that certain Purchase Agreement between Behram Behroozi and Anne Behroozi, Trustees of the Behroozi Family Trust,dated July 1, 1989, and the Midpeninsula Regional Open Space District, a copy of which is attached hereto and by reference made a part hereof, and authorizes the President or appropriate officers to execute the Agreement on behalf of the District to acquire the real property described therein ("the Behroozi Trust Property"). Section Two, The General Manager, President of the Board of Directors or other appropriate officer is authorized to execute Certificates of Acceptance for the Grant Deed on behalf of the District. Section Three. The General Manager of the District or the General Manager's designee shall cause to be given appropriate notice of acceptance to the seller and to extend escrow if necessary. Section Four. The General Manager of the District is authorized to expend up to $5,000 to cover the cost of title insurance,escrow fees, site clean-up costs and other miscellaneous costs related to this transaction. Section Five. The General Manager and General Counsel are further authorized to approve any technical revisions to the attached Agreement and documents which do not involve any material change to any term of the Agreement or documents, which are necessary or appropriate to the closing or implementation of this transaction. Section Six. The purpose of this Section is to enable the District to reimburse its general fund for the cost of certain land acquisitions. The District wishes to finance certain of these real property acquisitions and expects to use tax-exempt debt, such as bonds, but a tax-exempt financing is not cost justified for the District unless the principal amount of the financing is large enough to justify the related financing costs. Consequently, it is the District's practice to buy property with its general funds and, when a tax-exempt financing is cost justified based on the aggregate value of acquisitions, to issue tax-exempt obligations to reimburse itself for previous expenditures of general funds. These general funds are needed for operating and other working capital needs of the District and are not intended to be used to finance property acquisitions on a long-term basis. U.S. Income Tax Regulation Section 1.150-2 requires an issuer of tax-exempt debt to declare its intent to use a portion of tax-exempt debt proceeds for reimbursement of expenditures prior to the payment of the expenditures. Accordingly,the Board of Directors hereby declares its intent to issue tax-exempt obligations in the maximum principal amount of$1,525,000 and to use a portion of the proceeds of the obligations for reimbursement of District expenditures for acquisition of the Behroozi Trust Property that are paid before the date of issuance of the obligations.
