hereby accept the offer contained in that certain Purchase Agreement between CAROL Y.
MILLER AND
NEVA L. SC
HUELKE,CHUELKE SUCCESSOR CO-TRUSTEES OF THE GENEVA J.

TO AN UNDIVIDED 40% INTEREST; CAROL Y. MILLER AND NEVA L. SCHUELKE,
SUCCESSOR COTRUSTEES OF THE ORAN L. SLAGHZ 7 RUST B-1 DATED MAY 31, i
2003 UTA DATED MARCH 31, 1999, AS TO AN UNDIVIDED 20% INTEREST; AND
CAROL Y. MILLER AND NEVA L. SCHUELKE, SUCCESSOR CO-TRUSTEES OF THE
ORAN L. SLAGHT TRUST B-2 DATED MAY 31, 2003 UTA DATED MARCH 31, 1999, AS
TO AN UNDIVIDED 40% INTEREST and the Midpeninsula Regional Open Space District
(District), a copy of which purchase agreement is attached hereto and by reference made a part
hereof, and authorizes the President or other appropriate officer to execute the Agreement on
behalf of the District to acquire the real property described therein ("the Slaght Property").
Section Two. The General Manager, President of the Board of Directors or other appropriate
officer is authorized to execute Certificate of Acceptance for the Grant Deed(s) on behalf of the �
District.
Section Three. The General Manager 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 is authorized to expend up to $20,000 to cover the cost of
title insurance, escrow fees, site clean up 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
I'
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$2,025,000 and to use a
portion of the proceeds of the obligations for reimbursement of District expenditures for
acquisition of the Slaght Property that are paid before the date of issuance of the obligation.
