3. Multiply the larger quotient computed pursuant to paragraph 2(a) or 2(b) by
Outstanding Bonds. The product shall be the "Bond Redemption Amount."
4. Multiply the Bond Redemption Amount by the applicable redemption premium, if
any, on the Outstanding Bonds to be redeemed with the proceeds of the Bond
Redemption Amount. This product is the "Redemption Premium."
5. Compute the Future Facilities Cost.
6. Multiply the larger quotient computed pursuant to paragraph 2 (a) or 2 (b) by the
amount determined pursuant to paragraph 5 to determine the Future Facilities Cost to
be prepaid (the "Future Facilities Amount").
7. Compute the amount needed to pay interest on the Bond Redemption Amount to be
redeemed with the proceeds of the Prepayment Amount until the earliest call date for
the Outstanding Bonds.
8. Estimate the amount of interest earnings to be derived from the reinvestment of the
Bond Redemption Amount plus the Redemption Premium until the earliest call date
for the Outstanding Bonds.
9. Subtract the amount computed pursuant to paragraph 8 from the amount computed
pursuant to paragraph 7. This difference is the "Defeasance."
10. Estimate the administrative fees and expenses associated with the prepayment,
including the costs of computation of the Prepayment Amount, the costs of
redeeming Bonds, and the costs of recording any notices to evidence the prepayment
and the redemption. This amount is the "Administrative Fee."
11. Calculate the "Reserve Fund Credit" as the lesser of: (a) the expected reduction in the
applicable reserve requirements, if any, associated with the redemption of
Outstanding Bonds as a result of the prepayment, or (b) the amount derived by
subtracting the new reserve requirements in effect after the redemption of
Outstanding Bonds as a result of the prepayment from the balance in the applicable
reserve funds on the prepayment date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the reserve
fund requirement is satisfied by a surety bond or other instrument at the time of the
prepayment, then no Reserve Fund Credit shall be given. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Reserve Fund Credit shall in no event be less than 0.
12. The Prepayment Amount is equal to the sum of the Bond Redemption Amount, the
Redemption Premium, the Future Facilities Amount, the Defeasance, and the
Administrative Fee, less the Reserve Fund Credit.
With respect to the Special Tax for Facilities obligation that is prepaid pursuant to this Section G, the City
Council shall indicate in the records of CFD No. 93-1 that there has been a prepayment of the Special Tax for
Facilities obligation and shall cause a suitable notice to be recorded in compliance with the Act within thirty
(30) days of receipt of such prepayment to indicate the prepayment of the Special Tax for Facilities obligation
and the release of the Special Tax for Facilities lien on such Assessor's Parcel, and the obligation of such
Assessor's Parcel to pay such Special Taxes for Facilities shall cease.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no prepayment will be allowed unless the amount of Special Tax for Facilities
that may be levied on Taxable Property, net of Administrative Expenses, shall be at least 1.1 times the

there are no delinquent Special Taxes, penalties, or interest charges outstanding with respect to such Assessor's
Parcel at the time the Special Tax for Facilities obligation would be prepaid.

With respect to any Assessor's Parcel that is partially prepaid, the City Council shall indicate in the records of
CFD No. 93-1 that there has been a partial prepayment of the Special Tax for Facilities obligation and shall
cause a suitable notice to be recorded in compliance with the Act within thirty (30) days of receipt of such

such that the partial prepayment shall be in the exact percentage required for a Total Property Tax Burden not
in excess of the 2% limit.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no partial prepayment will be allowed unless the amount of Special Tax for
Facilities that may be levied on Taxable Property after such partial prepayment, net of Administrative
Expenses, shall be at least 1.1 times the regularly scheduled annual interest and principal payments on all
currently Outstanding Bonds in each future Fiscal Year.

uncollected prior to or after all Bonds are retired, the Special Tax for Facilities may be levied to the extent

Exempt Property if such classification would reduce the sum of all Taxable Property to less than 87.34 Acres
