Meaning of Words and Terms. Words and phrases used in this Exhibit B generally have the meanings assigned in §§ 103 and 141-150 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), in the applicable U.S. Treasury Regulations (the "Regulations"), and in the Bond Ordinance. The following words and terms used in Exhibit B have the following meanings: "Bond Year" means each one-year period (or shorter period for the first Bond Year) ending January 1. "Code"means the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. "Financed Facility" means the property financed with the proceeds of the Bonds as described on the Participant's signature page to the Purchase Agreement. "Governmental Person" means a State, territory, a possession of the United States, the District of Columbia, or any political subdivision thereof or any instrumentality of such unit. It does not include the United States or any agency or instrumentality thereof. • "Issue Date"means the date of issuance of the Bonds. "Measurement Period" means, with respect to each item of property financed as part of the Financed Facility, the period beginning on the later of(i) the Issue Date or (ii) the date the property is placed in service and ending on or the earlier of (A) the final maturity date of the Bonds or (B) the expected economic useful life of the property. "Nongovernmental Person"means a person other than a Governmental Person. 2. Authority and Purpose for Bonds. The Bonds are being issued for the purpose of providing funds to pay the costs of the Financed Facility. 3. No Over-issuance, Other Sources. (a) The sale proceeds of the Bonds, together with expected investment earnings on such proceeds, do not exceed the cost of the governmental purpose of the Bonds as described above. (b) In addition to proceeds of the Bonds, the Participant will allocate the sum of$8,800.00 representing a cash contribution by the Participant to pay a portion of the costs of the Financed Facility. 4. Governmental Bond Tests and Related Requirements. (a) General. The Participant will not use any portion of the Bond proceeds, including any • investment earnings on such proceeds, directly or indirectly, nor permit the use of any portion of the Financed Facility, in a manner that would cause any Bond to be a "private activity bond" as defined in Code § 141. D-7 (b) Use of Financed Facility. The Bond proceeds will be used to finance or refinance the Financed Facility. Throughout the Measurement Period, all property comprising the Financed Facility has been and will be owned by the Participant or another Governmental Person has owned and will own the Financed Facility. Not more than 10% of the proceeds of the Bonds will be used in a manner that constitutes a "private business use" during the Measurement Period. In making the foregoing representations the Participant acknowledges that (i)use of the property comprising the Financed Facility is determined annually throughout the Measurement Period; (ii)the use of the Financed Facility is treated as the direct use of proceeds of the Bonds; (iii) the term "private business use" generally means ownership or lease by, or other use in the trade or business of, a"Nongovernmental Person," as set forth in Regulations § 1.141-3; (iv) any activity carried on by a Nongovernmental Person other than a natural person is treated as a trade or business; (v) the Financed Facility is treated as being used for a private business use if it is leased to a Nongovernmental Person and subleased to a Governmental Person, or leased to a Governmental Person and then subleased to a Nongovernmental Person, if the Nongovernmental Person's use is in a trade or business; and (vi) in most cases, use of the Financed Facility constitutes private business use only if a Nongovernmental Person has special legal entitlements to use the financed property under an arrangement with the Participant. (c) Private Security or Payment. The payment of principal and interest on the Bonds will not be(under the terms of the Bonds or any underlying arrangement)directly or indirectly: (1) secured by (i) any interest in property used or to be used for a private business use, or(ii)any interest in payments in respect of such property; or • (2) derived from payments (whether or not such payments are made to the Participant) in respect of property, or borrowed money, used or to be used for a private business use. For purposes of the foregoing, taxes of general application are not treated as a private payment or as private security so long as no taxpayer enters into any "impermissible agreement" with respect to the collection or payment of the tax as described in Regulation §1.141-4(e)(4)(ii). The Participant will use revenues derived from the operation of the Financed Facility to pay the debt service on the Bonds. All revenues will be derived from rates that are generally applicable and uniformly applied, and which do not convey priority rights or other preferential benefits for use of the Financed Facility. (d) No Private Loan. No proceeds of the Bonds will be loaned directly or indirectly to any person or entity that is not a State or local governmental unit. Special assessments may be used as source of repayment of the Bonds so long as the assessments meet the criteria set out in Regulation§1.141-5(d). (e) No Federal Guarantees. The Participant will not take any action or permit any action to be taken which would cause the Bonds to be"federally guaranteed"within the meaning of Code § 149(b). (f) Management Contracts. The Participant will not enter into or renew any "management contract" (defined below) with any Nongovernmental Person, without first obtaining an opinion of bond counsel, addressed to the Participant and the Authority, that such management contract will not adversely affect the exclusion of the interest on the Authority Bonds from gross income for federal income tax purposes. The term "management contract" is defined in Regulations § 1.141-3(b) as a management, service, or incentive payment contract with an entity that provides services involving all or a portion of • any function of the Financed Facility, such as a contract to manage the Financed Facility or any portion thereof. Contracts for services that are solely incidental to the primary governmental function of the D-8 • Financed Facility (for example, contracts for janitorial, office equipment repair, billing, or similar services)are not treated as management contracts. (g) Leases. The Participant will not enter into or renew a lease of all or any portion of the Financed Facility (disregarding portions used by members of the general public who use portions of the Financed Facility on a short-term basis in the ordinary course of the Participant's operation of the Financed Facility) with any Nongovernmental Person, without first obtaining an opinion of bond counsel, addressed to the Participant and the Authority, that such lease will not adversely affect the exclusion of the interest on the Authority Bonds from gross income for federal income tax purposes. 5. Sinking. The Participant is required under the Bond Ordinance to make periodic payments in amounts sufficient to pay the principal of and interest on the Bonds. The Participant will deposit these payments into the Principal Account and the Interest Account held by the Trustee. Except for the Principal Account and the Interest Account, the Participant has not established, and does not expect to establish, any sinking fund or other similar fund expected to be used directly or indirectly to pay principal of or interest on the Bonds. The Principal Account and the Interest Account are used primarily to achieve a proper matching of revenues with principal and interest payments on the Bonds within each bond year and the Participant expects that the Principal Account and the Interest Account will qualify as a "bona fide debt service fund,"as said term is defined in the Regulations. 6. No Replacement Funds. None of the Bond proceeds will be used as a substitute for other funds that were intended or earmarked to pay costs of the Financed Facility, and that have been or will be used to acquire higher yielding investments. Except for the Principal Account, the Interest Account and the Reserve Account, there are no other funds pledged or committed in a manner that provides a • reasonable assurance that such funds would be available for payment of the principal of or interest on the Bonds if the Participant encounters financial difficulty. 7. Reimbursement of Expenditures. On November 7, 2000, the governing body of the Participant adopted an ordinance declaring the intent of the Participant to borrow to finance costs of the Financed Facility for the Participant, and to reimburse the Participant for expenditures made for the Financed Facility prior to the issuance of such obligations (the"Reimbursement Action"). A copy of the Reimbursement Action is contained in the Transcript. No portion of the Net Proceeds of the Bonds will be used to reimburse an expenditure paid by the Participant more than 60 days prior to the date the Reimbursement Action was adopted. The Participant will evidence in writing each allocation of the proceeds of the Bonds to an expenditure. No reimbursement allocation will be made for an expenditure made more than three years prior to the date of the reimbursement allocation. In addition, no reimbursement allocation will be made more than 18 months following the later of(A) the date of the expenditure or(B)the date the Financed Facility was placed in service. 8. Hedize Bonds. The Participant expects that at least 85% of the net sale proceeds of the Bonds will be used to carry out the governmental purpose of the Bonds within three years after the Issue Date. 9. Records. The Participant recognizes that(i) investors purchase the Authority Bonds with the expectation that interest on the Authority Bonds is and will remain excludable from gross income for Federal income tax purposes, (ii)the tax-exempt status of interest on the Authority Bonds depends in part on the accuracy of the Participant's representations and the satisfaction of the Participant's covenants contained in this Closing Certificate, many of which relate to matters that will occur after the date the • Bonds are issued, and (iii) as part of its ongoing tax-exempt bond audit program the Internal Revenue Service requires that records be created and maintained with respect to the following matters: D-9 (1) documentation evidencing the expenditure of Bond proceeds in sufficient detail to determine the date of the expenditure,the asset acquired or the purpose of the expenditure. (2) documentation evidencing the use of the Financed Facility by public and private persons(for example, copies of management contracts or leases). (3) documentation evidencing all sources of payment or security for the Bonds. The Participant has procedures in place or will establish procedures to create and retain these records. Unless otherwise specifically instructed in a written opinion of Bond Counsel, the Participant will retain and maintain these records for a period ending not earlier than three years following the final maturity of (i) the Bonds or (ii) any obligation issued to refund the Bonds. Any records maintained electronically must comply with Section 4.01 of Revenue Procedure 97-22. • D-10
