As a result of input received from the public and the Commission, staff will make any necessary changes to the budget document for final review, close of the public hearing, and adoption at the June 12 Commission meeting. The executive summary document contains a summary of all departmental budgets and summarizes the information for the entire Commission. The department budgets present the goals and objectives, the resources needed to accomplish the Agenda Item 8 3 goals, and the appropriations required to accomplish the tasks. Staff also included the budgets by governmental fund type, as this table provides a summary of the budgeted revenues and expenditures from a fund perspective. Preliminary funding estimates for transit operating and capital expenditures have been included in the budget, although the draft Short Range Transit Plans are still under review. An adjustment for a revised estimate of these transit expenditures may be included in the final budget document presented in June 2013.

To provide the reader a better understanding of the projects, staff has included descriptive information regarding each department and major projects. The discussion in each department includes a review of accomplishments, major initiatives, and key assumptions. Staff used the goals and objectives approved at the Commission meeting on March 13, 2013, to prepare this budget. In addition to the Commission's long-term goals and strategic plan, the short-term factors listed below were used to guide the development of the budget: Operational • Aggressively pursue completion of the environmental, design, and construction processes on the State Route (SR) 91, Interstate {I) 15, and 1-215 projects included in the Western Riverside County Delivery Plan. • Enhance corridor mobility and traveler choice by continuing property acquisition and commencing construction on the SR-91 corridor improvement project and continuing to develop tolled express lanes on 1-15. • Work closely with local jurisdictions to administer the Transportation Uniform Mitigation Fee {TUMF) Regional Arterial Program and facilitate the delivery of eligible arterial improvements in western Riverside County {Western County). • Work closely with partners in the Coachella Valley to ensure the implementation of Measure A funding priorities. • Complete projects and programs included in the 1989 Measure A. • Continue the preliminary engineering and environmental clearance for the Mid County Parkway and SR-79 realignment projects. • Work with local and regional agencies in developing resources for preservation and maintenance of the highways and regional arterials. • Continue cooperation with the Federal Transit Administration {FTA) regarding the Small Starts process to support activities for the Perris Valley Line Metrolink extension (Perris Valley Line) project. • Improve utilization and increase efficiency of commuter rail lines serving the County. • Support innovative programs that provide transit assistance in hard to serve rural areas or for riders with special transit needs. • Support cost controls and promote operating efficiency for transit operators. • Maintain effective partnerships among commuters, employers, and government to increase the efficiency of our transportation system by encouraging and promoting motorized and non-motorized transportation alternatives.· • Continue to provide a motorist aid system that ensures safety and convenience to freeway motorists. • Maintain an active involvement in state and federal legislative matters to ensure that the Commission receives proper consideration for transportation projects and funding. • Explore local options for sustainable funding in addressing long-term transportation and quality-of-life needs for Riverside County. • Maintain close communication with Commissioners and educate policy makers on all issues of importance to the Commission.

Budget Overview Total sources (Table 1) are budgeted at $915,224,500, which is a decrease of 33% over FY 2012/13 projected sources and a 51% decrease over the FY 2012/13 revised budget. Total sources are comprised of revenues of $467,140,600, transfers in of $354,083,900, and TIFIA loan proceeds of $94,000,000. The projected fund balance at June 30, 2013 available for expenditures (excluding reserves for debt service of $164,559,900 and advances receivable of $32,818,200) is $969,652,700. Accordingly, total funding available for the FY 2013/14 budget totals $1,884,877,200.

Moreover, both transportation and communication access to employment centers in Los Angeles and Orange counties improved. Riverside County's economy thrived, reflecting the area's competitive advantages over its neighboring counties, largely as a result of the County's continuing ability to draw jobs, residents, and affordable housing away from the Los Angeles, Orange, and San Diego county areas. As a result, the County enjoyed a more diversified employment and commercial base and an increasing share of the regional economy. The economy in Riverside County reflects the previous nationwide recession, as was evidenced by high unemployment; lower total personal income and taxable sales, residential building permits, and the rate of home 6 sales and the median price of single-family residences; and high rates of distressed properties. The impact of the recession was amplified in the Inland Empire (i.e., Riverside and San Bernardino counties} due to its relatively greater growth through 2006 and the relatively lower average income levels when compared to coastal areas. These factors have resulted in fluctuating Measure A and L TF safes tax revenues and flat TUMF fees; however, as noted on Chart 1 the sales tax revenues appear to have stabilized since FY 2009/10.

The economic outlook for the Commission in FY 2013/14 continues to be encouraging with the stabilization of sales tax revenues; however, the state and federal budget issues continue to affect funding of the Commission's capital projects and programs. Should Measure A and LTF sales tax revenues decline again and the availability of federal and state revenues continues to be uncertain, the timing and scope of the Commission's projects and programs may be impacted. While the Commission's primary revenues are the Measure A and LTF sales taxes, other revenues and financing sources are required to fund the Commission's programs and projects as illustrated in Chart 2. Chart 2-Sources: Major Categories Debt Proceeds\ 10% \ Measure A Sales Tax 16% Operating oran.sters----0% Other Revenue 0% 7 lntPntnvernmenbll The State Board of Equalization (SBOE) recently provided to cities and other agencies its projections that statewide taxable sales over the next fiscal year will increase 5.45%. However, given the tenuous local economy, the Commission is not basing its estimate of revenues on the SBOE's projection and will continue its conservative projection practices. After taking the state of the local economy and recent optimistic revenue trends into consideration, staff projects that Measure A sales tax revenues of $147,000,000 for FY 2013/14. This is a 4% increase from the FY 2012/13 revised projection of $141,000,000. At midyear the Commission will reassess sales tax revenue projections based on the economy and revenue trends. On behalf of the County, the Commission administers the LTF for public transportation needs, local streets and roads, and bicycle and pedestrian facilities. The majority of l TF funding received by the County and available for allocation is distributed to all public transit operators in the County, and the Commission receives allocations for administration, planning, and programming in addition to funding for rail operations included in the commuter rail Short Range Transit Plan (SRTP). The l TF sales tax revenue received from the State is budgeted at $72,500,000, an increase of 4% from the FY 2012/13 revised projection of $69,500,000. STA funds generated from the statewide sales tax on motor vehicle fuel are allocated by formula by the State Controller to the Commission for allocations to the County's public transit operators; however, these funds have been subject to suspension in past years due to the State's budget issues. The STA transit allocation, which is based on recent State estimates, for FY 2013/14 is $13,298,000. Intergovernmental revenues include reimbursement revenues from federal sources of $97,660,000, state sources of $122,391,300, and local agencies of $3,109,400 for highway and rail capital, rail operations and station maintenance, commuter assistance, and motorist assistance programs as well as planning and programming activities. Reimbursement revenues vary from year to year depending on project activities and funding levels. As a result of an amended Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Western Riverside Council of Governments (WRCOG), the Commission will receive 48.7% of TUMF revenues (as updated by the most recent Nexus study). TUMF represents fees assessed on new residential and commercial development in Western County. FY 2013/14 TUMF fees are expected to remain flat at $6,300,000 to reflect the slow but encouraging signs in the housing market in the Inland Empire, and additional TUMF zone reimbursements of $423,400 are expected for the 74/215 interchange project. Other revenue of $500,000 is projected to decrease 43% from the prior year's budget of $882,800 primarily because of the decline in property management revenues from properties acquired in connection with the SR-91 corridor improvements project. Investment income is anticipated to decrease in FY 2013/14 as a result of lower cash balances primarily due to the increased activity with Perris Valley Line and the 5R-91 corridor improvement projects. Staff continues to actively manage its resources and make appropriate investments to maximize the return to the Commission without sacrificing security and affecting short-term cash requirements. Transfers in of $354,083,900 relate primarily to the transfer of available debt proceeds for highway and regional arterial projects; LTF funding for general administration, planning and programming, rail operations and station maintenance, and grade separation project allocations; approved interfund allocations for specific projects; and debt service requirements from highway, regional arterial, and local streets and roads projects. Debt proceeds consist of the issuance of $94,000,000 in TIFIA loan proceeds related to the SR-91 corridor improvement project. Total uses (Table 2), including transfers out of $354,083,900, are budgeted at $1,212,744,500, an increase of 25% from the prior year budget amount of $970,284,000. Program expenditures and transfers out totaling $1,166,180,400 represent 96% of total budgeted uses in FY 2013/14. Program costs have increased by 43% from $813,841,800 in FY 2012/13. 8 Table 2-Uses FY 2012·2014 FY 11/12 FY 12/13 FY 12/13 FY 13/14 Dollar Percent Actual Revised Budget Projected Budget Change Change Capital Highway, Rail, and Regional Arterials $ 238,856,700 $ 637,362,200 $ 506,342,800 $ 962,980,100 $ 325,617,900 51% Capital local Streets and Roads 40,127,900 42,129,000 42,129,000 43,825,900 1,696,900 4% Commuter Assistance 3,317,600 4,190,100 4,348,700 4,300,700 110,600 3% Debt Service 61,532,600 143,413,000 110,557,200 33,ln,200 (110,235,800) -77% Management Services 17,714,600 13,029,200 11,934,000 13,386,900 357,700 3% Motorist Assistance 4,942,900 6,169,300 6,048,900 6,740,600 571,300 9% Planning and Programming 3,399,900 4,994,100 3,538,600 5,595,500 601,400 12% Public and Specialized Transit 68,068,600 104,443,800 77,742,900 127,663,200 23,219,400 22% Rail Maintenance and Operations 20,202,600 14,553,300 11,549,300 15,074,400 521,100 4% TOTAL Uses $ 458,163,400 $ 970,284,000 $ 774,191,400 $ 1,212,744,500 $ 242,460,500 25% Note: Management Services includes Executive Management, Administration, Legislative Affairs and Communications, and Finance. Capital highway, rail, and regional arterials budgeted uses of $962,980,100 are 51% higher compared to FY 2012/13 due to construction of the Perris Valley line and significant right of way activities and commencement of construction of SR-91 corridor improvement project in addition to transfers out of debt proceeds from capital projects funds to finance 2009 Measure A Western County highway project costs. Debt Service of $33,177,200 has decreased 77% as a result of the retirement of $80 million of outstanding commercial paper notes from sales tax revenue bond proceeds issued in connection with the SR-91 corridor improvement project financing. Commuter Assistance budgeted expenditures of $4,300,700 are 3% higher than FY 2012/13 due to increased expenditures related to projects and operations activities. Management Services expenditures have increased 3% from the FY 2012/13 budget due to information technology equipment upgrades. Motorist Assistance expenditures have increased 9% or $571,300 from the FY 2012/13 budget as a result of increased demand for freeway service patrol services supporting construction projects. Planning and Programming budgeted expenditures of $5,595,500 reflect a 12% increase from the FY 2012/13 budget due to increased projects and operations activities in connection with L TF disbursements for planning and programming and grade separations projects. Public and Specialized Transit budgeted expenditures of $127,663,200 are 22% higher than FY 2012/13 due to increased transit capital expenditures for public transit. The 4% increase in Rail Maintenance and Operation's budgeted expenditures of $15,079,400 is primarily due to additional consultant work needed to perform planning and modeling for rail projects including the SR-91/PVL expansion and Coachella Valley Service. Total uses included in the FY 2013/14 budget by major categories are illustrated in Chart 3.

Action was taken by the Commission's Executive Committee to approve a revised salary structure for Commission employees; however, a full review of the issue has been requested by a member of the Executive Committee. The new structure would have included actions to require employees to begin paying their full share of pension costs over a three-year period with a corresponding salary increase. Per the Commission's Administrative Code, a Commissioner may request a review of any action by the Executive Committee at its next regular meeting. Currently, the personnel information in the draft budget Executive Summary assumes no salary increases. With that assumption, the Commission's salary and benefits total $6,998,000 for FY 2013/14. This represents an increase of $26,900 over the FY 2012/13 budget of $6,971,100 (Chart 4). The slight increase is a result of mandated increases from PERS and higher costs for insurance premiums.

Management continues to be firmly committed to the intent of the Commission's enabling legislation that called for a small staff. Staff will continue to be provided the tools needed to ensure an efficient and productive work environment. However, it must be recognized that small is not viewed in an absolute context; it is relative to the required tasks to be performed and the demands to be met.

The following is a summary of the most current estimate of sources and uses for the SR-91 CIP financing, and these amounts are subject to change through final pricing of the bonds: Agenda Item 9 22 Proposed Authorized or Approved Amount Debt sources: Par amount Debt uses: Construction Fund deposit Capitalized Interest Fund deposit Debt Service Reserve Fund deposit Retirement of commercial paper notes (development costs) Predevelopment costs Total debt uses Toil Revenue Bonds Bonds Sales Tax Toll Revenue $ 550 $ 400 $ 445 $ 220 $ 296 $ 153 49 45 22 100 $ 445 $ 220 $ $ $ TIFIA loan 451 Pay Go N/A 435 $ 106 435 $ 106 $ 435 $ 106 (in millions $) Pre-development Costs N/A $ 110 110 $ 110 Total $ 1,401 $ 1,316 $ 990 94 22 100 110 $ 1,316 The 2013 Toll Bonds are proposed to be issued as fixed, long-term bonds. The 2013 Toll Bonds include CIBs with projected interest coupon rates ranging from 3.33 percent to 6.50 percent and maturities of principal beginning in July 2029 through July 2041. The 2013 Toll Bonds also include CABs with an investment return on an initial principal amount that accrues interest at a stated compounded rate until maturity beginning in July 2032 through July 2043. At maturity of the CABs, the bondholder receives a single payment for the maturity value representing both the initial principal amount and the total investment return. Actual interest rates for the bonds will be determined in June upon the pricing of the bonds. Since the SR-91 Cl P' s substantial completion date and commencement of toll operations are currently assumed in the financial model to occur in November 201 7, a portion of the toll revenue bond proceeds will be used for capitalized interest payments during construction, as indicated in the table above. A portion of the 2013 Toll Bonds proceeds will be used to fund a debt service reserve fund as well as to pay costs of issuance, which are limited to 2 percent per the Commission's debt management policy. Agenda Item 9 23 Projected debt service coverage in the financial model based on projected toll revenues is expected to exce~d the toll bonds indenture (draft) requirement of 1 .5x coverage for senior level toll debt. The toll bonds coverage requirement is included in the updated debt management policy included with this staff report. TIFIA Loan The TIFIA loan interest rate is currently estimated at 3.50 percent and is tied to the rate on a 30-year U.S. Treasury Bond plus 1 basis point (0.01 percent). The actual interest rate for the TIFIA loan will be determined in June upon the execution of the TIFIA Loan Agreement. Interest on the TIFIA loan will be payable beginning in July 2022. During the first five years of repayment, only interest payments are required. To the extent that payments of interest result in debt service coverage of at least 1 .3x for all senior and subordinated toll revenue-supported debt, the debt service is considered mandatory debt service. Mandatory debt service is required, and failure to pay results in a default, which would set the toll revenue-supported financing for the SR-91 CIP on a course of ultimate default. The TIFIA loan will also include payments during the period from July 2022 to July 2027 that fully fund all interest. The additional payments are considered scheduled debt service. Payment of scheduled debt service is only required if revenues are sufficient to allow its payment. The TIFIA loan maturities are projected to begin in July 2027 through July 2052, which is about 15 years before the expiration of toll authority. Key provisions of the TIFIA loan include the following: • A $20 million TIFIA loan reserve will be established from excess right of way sales proceeds, which are estimated at $29 million, or a 2009 Measure A Western County highway contribution if such proceeds are not sufficient; • Minimum 1 .3x coverage for all senior and subordinated toll revenue supported debt; • TIFIA loan to be drawn down pro rata with 2013 Toll Bonds proceeds for construction; • Additional bonds secured by toll revenues can be issued if the minimum 1 .5x coverage requirement is met and the TIFIA lender approves; • Completion bonds may be issued should that prove necessary due to unexpected cost increases or delays; • After payment of current debt service on the toll revenue bonds and the TIFIA loan, revenues can be applied to the 71/91 interchange project and the 91115 north connector (Deferred SR-91 CIP); and • Revenues remaining after payment on bonds, the TIFIA loan, and the Deferred SR-91 CIP will be applied on a 50-50 ratio to prepayment of the TIFIA loan and to other Commission projects. Agenda Item 9 24 Flow of Funds for Toll Operations Toll operations will be conducted in accordance with a three-party agreement between the Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA), the Commission, and the 91 Express Lanes operator, Cofiroute USA. Commission approval of this agreement is expected at the May meeting. Deposits and other non-toll related revenues will be deposited by the operator into a master custodial account to be determined by OCTA and the Commission. Toll revenues will be transferred on a daily basis to individual trust accounts managed by each agency's trustee; for the Commission, this is BNYM. Other non-toll related revenues such as violation fees and minimum account fees will be transferred on a weekly or monthly basis, as appropriate. These revenues will be required to fund the following significant costs and reserves, which are listed in order of priority: • Operations and maintenance; • 2013 Toll Bond interest; • 2013 Toll Bond principal; • 2013 Toll Bond debt service reserve replenishment, if required; • Interest and principal as well as debt service reserve replenishment on second lien toll supported obligations, of which there currently are none anticipated; • TIFIA loan mandatory debt service; • TIFIA loan reserve (if the TIFIA loan reserve is applied to payment of TIFIA mandatory debt service); • Repair and rehabilitation reserve; • TIFIA loan scheduled debt service; • Planned improvements reserve to fund deferred SR-91 CIP projects; and • Residual account. Events of default identified in the 2013 Toll Bond Indenture and First Supplemental Indenture (Indentures) are as follows: • Default in payment of any interest or principal on any bond when due; • Occurrence and continuance of a bankruptcy-related event of the Commission; and • Default in observance or performance of any other covenant or agreement of Commission contained in the Indentures for a period of 60 days after written notice. Should an event of default occur, the Indentures specify the application of revenue and other funds after a default.

The purchase contract (draft) between the Commission and the underwriters regarding the purchase of the 2013 Toll Revenue Bonds will be provided at the Commission meeting. As part of the action to authorize the issuance of the 2 013 Toil Revenue Bonds, the Commission will approve the form of the Preliminary Official Statement and authorize its distribution in connection with the sale of the bonds, as well as the preparation of a final Official Statement once the bonds have been priced. These offering documents are required under state and federal securities laws prohibiting the offer and sale of securities such as the 2013 Toll Revenue Bonds, unless all Agenda Item 9 26 matters that would be material to an investor in the bonds have been adequately disclosed and that there is no omission of material facts. Furthermore, under rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, the underwriters cannot purchase the bonds unless they have received a substantially final offering document, which discloses all material information that they reasonably believe to be true and correct. The Commissioners serving on the Board as the governing body of the issuer of the 2013 Toll Revenue Bonds are expected to read and be familiar with the information described in the draft Preliminary Official Statement included with this staff report. The Commissioners may employ the services of experts to take the lead in the drafting and review of the Official Statement and to provide financial projections included in the Official Statement; however, the Commissioners have the duty to review the information and bring to the attention of those responsible for the preparation of the offering document any misstatements or omissions in the draft and to ask questions if they are unclear about the information or their role. The financing team will be available at the Commission meeting to respond to the identification of any misstatements or omissions or to such questions. The following is a schedule of subsequent activities related to the SR-91 CIP financing: Posting of preliminary official statements Pricing activities TIFIA Loan agreement execution Bond closing activities May 20 June 10-12 June 25-26 June 26-27 Changes to these documents may be necessary as a result of continuing development by the financing team and continuing negotiations with TIFIA. Since general legal counsel is a key member of the financing team, staff recommends the executive director be authorized to approve and execute the final documents. Financial Impact Proceeds from the 2013 Toll Bonds will be received upon issuance of the bonds; the TIFIA loan will be drawn upon monthly in connection with cost reimbursement requisitions.

See "SOURCES OF PAYMENT AND SECURlTY FOR THE SERIES 2013 BONDS." The Series 2013 Bonds are also secured by amounts held in the 2013 Bonds Reserve Account within the Senior Line Bond Reserve Fund. On the date of delivery of the Series 2013 Bonds, proceeds of the Series 2013 Bonds in the amount of$ , representing the initial 2013 Bonds Reserve Requirement, will be deposited in the 2013 Bonds Reserve Account, and shall be applied pursuant to the Indenture to make up any shortfall in the payment of interest and/or principal and/or redemption price (excluding any redemption premium) due on the Series 2013 Bonds. Also, proceeds of the Series 20 13A Bonds in the amount of$ will be deposited in the 2013 Series A Capitalized Interest Account, which amount will be sufficient to pay interest on the Series 20 13A Bonds through and including _____ _ NEITHER THE FULL FAITH AND CREDIT NOR THE TAXING POWER OF THE COUNTY OF RIVERSIDE, THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA OR ANY POLITICAL SUBDIVISION OR PUBLIC AGENCY THEREOF, OTHER THAN THAT OF THE COMMISSION TO THE EXTENT OF THE PLEDGE OF THE REVENUES, IS PLEDGED TO THE PAYMENT OF THE PRINCIPAL OR INTEREST OF THE SERIES 2013 BONDS. The Project General. State Route 91 ("SR-91") is an east-west limited access highway running from the I-405 in Los Angeles at its western end to the interchange of I-215 and SR-60 in Riverside County on its eastern end. The existing SR-91 cross section typically consists of four general purpose lanes, varying in widthfrom 11 feet to 12 feet, as well as auxiliary lanes in each direction. In Orange County, two tolled express lanes ("OCTA SR-91 Express Lanes") are operated in each direction by the Orange County Transportation Authority ("OCTA"). The OCT A SR-91 Express Lanes are in the median area, beginning west of the SR-91/SR-55 interchange and terminating near the Riverside/Orange county line. These express lanes transition into one high occupancy vehicle ("HOV'') lane in each direction in Riverside County. Two major freeway facilities intersect the Project: the 1-15 and SR-71. The Riverside SR-91 Corridor Improvement Project (the "Project") will extend the OCTA SR-91 Express Lanes from the Orange County/Riverside County Line approximately eight miles to the 1-15/SR-91 Interchange in Riverside, California by constructing one general purpose lane in each direction from the SR-91 /SR-71 interchange to 1-15, and converting the existing HOY lanes into two tolled express lanes, ultimately providing five general purpose lanes and two tolled express lanes in each direction. The Project also includes a two-lane direct tolled connector approximately 2.8 miles in distance providing SR-91 tolled express lanes access/egress with 1-15 South. This direct tolled connector commences near Grand Avenue on SR-91, and ends on 1-15 South near Ontario Avenue in the City of Corona. All ofthe Commission sponsored tolled express lanes are referred to herein as the "RCTC SR-91 Express Lanes." The Commission will use the services of the existing OCTA SR-91 Express Lanes operator, Cofiroute USA, LLC ("Cofiroute" or the "Toll Operator"), to serve as operator of the RCTC SR-91 Express Lanes. Cofiroute currently is responsible for managing the OCT A SR-91 Express Lanes operation, which includes revenue collection, customer accounts, violation enforcement, violation processing, incident management and response, and first line maintenance of tolling and traffic equipment. Cofiroute will have the same responsibilities for the RCTC SR-91 Express Lanes. 57023390.6 2 50 For additional information regarding the Project, see "THE RIVERSIDE SR-91 CORRIDOR IMPROVEMENT PROJECT," "CONSTRUCTION OF THE PROJECT" and "OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE OF THE PROJECT" Plan of Finance. The total cost of the Project is estimated at $[1.35] billion. The Project will be financed with (i) direct cash contributions from revenues generate by the Measure A Sales Tax along with State Transportation Improvement Program funds of the Commission, (ii) a portion of the proceeds of the Series 2013 Bonds, (iii) a portion of the proceeds of the Commission's Sales Tax Revenue Bonds (Limited Tax Bonds) 2013 Series A (the "2013 Sales Tax Revenue Bonds"), and (iv) proceeds of the TlFlA Loan, all as more fully described herein. The delivery and sale of Series 2013 Bonds will be conditioned upon and contemporaneous with the delivery and sale of the 2013 Sales Tax Revenue Bonds in the approximate principal amount of $ and the closing of the TIFIA Loan Agreement providing for the TlFlA Loan. TIFIA Loan. The Commission will enter into the TIFlA Loan Agreement with the United States Department of Transportation acting by and through the Federal Highway Administrator (the "TJFJA Lender") in order to obtain a loan in the approximate amount of [$451.0] million (the "TIF!A Loan") under the Transportation Infrastructure Finance and Innovation Act. Proceeds of the TIFIA Loan, when drawn upon, are expected to be used to finance a portion of the costs ofthe Project. The TlFlA Loan will be evidenced by a toll revenue bond of the Commission issued pursuant to the Indenture and a Second Supplemental Indenture, dated as of June 1, 2013, by and between the Commission and the Trustee (the "TIFIA Bond"). Certain conditions must be met for the Commission to draw funds under the TIFIA Loan Agreement and the obligations of the TIFIA Lender to advance funds under the TIFIA Loan Agreement may be suspended or terminated. See "RISK FACTORS-Construction Risks-Conditions to Drawing on the TIFIA Loan Agreement." Under the Indenture, the TlFIA Bond will be secured by the Trust Estate on a basis subordinate to the Series 2013 Bonds, except as provided below. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Bankruptcy Related Event of the Commission (as defined in the Indenture), the TlFIA Bond will, if the Owner of the TIFIA Bond is the TIFlA Lender or another federal governmental lender at such time, automatically and without action on the part of the TIFIA Lender or any other person immediately become and be of equal rank and in parity with the Senior Lien Bonds or Parity Obligations and will be entitled to all rights of an Owner of Senior Lien Bonds or Parity Obligations (including, without limitation, the right of payment pro rata with other Senior Lien Bonds or Parity Obligations pursuant to the Indenture). Upon such event, the money and investments held in the TJFIA Payment Fund allocable to the payment of the TIFIA Bond are required to be transferred by the Trustee to the Senior Lien Bond Fund. See "SOURCES OF PAYMENT AND SECURITY FOR THE SERIES 2013 BONDS-Subordinated Obligations; TJFIA Loan." Key Project Agreements The Commission is working in partnership with California Department of Transportation (Caltrans), Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and OCTA to obtain required environmental permits for the Project, procure a design-builder, secure project financing, design and construction, and operate and maintain the tolled express lane facility. Summaries of the key Project agreements are provided below. FHW A/Caltrans/RCTC High Profile Project Agreement (HPPA). The Project has been designated a Major Project and a High Profile Project by the FHWA due to the Project cost exceeding $500 million, innovative financing through use of toll revenues, and the use of a federal Transportation Infrastructure Finance and Innovation Act (TIFIA) loan. This agreement outlines the roles, 57023390.6 3 51 responsibilities, and requirements of FHWA, Caltrans, and the Commission as it relates to oversight and risk management of the Project. RCTC/Corona Cooperative Agreement. The Project lies almost entirely within the City of Corona. This agreement outlines the roles, responsibilities, and obligations of the Commission and the City of Corona relative to Project implementation, including design, right-of-way (ROW), construction, and funding. One of the unique approaches outlined in the agreement is the delegation of in-process design reviews and construction independent quality assurance (JQA) from the City of Corona to the Commission. This approach is intended to mitigate the risk of third-party delay. The City of Corona will maintain final design and construction approval for improvements under its jurisdiction. RCTC/OCTA Cooperative Agreement (ORCA). The tolled express lanes will be interoperable with OCTA's existing SR-91 Express Lanes and share a common operator, Cofiroute. Under this cooperative agreement, the Commission and OCTA will use a common toll operator and agree-on cost and revenue sharing, toll policies, business rules, interoperability of technology, OCTA review of design plans and construction activities, and shared marketing activities. RCTC/Caltrans Toll Facility Agreement (TFA). This agreement, an amendment to the existing franchise agreement between Caltrans and OCTA, eliminated OCTA's tolling rights along the SR-91 Corridor in the Riverside County. This agreement is a follow-up to AB 1316, providing state franchise rights to the Commission and authorization to toll the SR-91 from the Orange County Line to 1-15. The agreement outlines the Commission's leasehold rights to Caltrans' right-of-way (ROW) and Caltrans' oversight role in the operations and maintenance of the SR-91 express lanes. RCTC/Caltrans Design-Build Cooperative Agreement. This agreement outlines the roles and responsibilities of the Commission and Caltrans relative to Project implementation, including design, ROW, construction, and funding. The agreement also outlines the respective agency roles in providing design reviews, construction oversight, and Project IQA and approvals. RCTC/Riverside County Agreement. This agreement outlines the roles, responsibilities, and obligations of the Commission and Riverside County relative to Project implementation, including design, right-of-way (ROW), construction, and funding. One of the unique approaches outlined in the agreement is the delegation of in-process design reviews and construction independent quality assurance (JQA) from the County to the Commission. This approach is intended to mitigate the risk of third-party delay. Riverside County will maintain final design and construction approval for improvements under its jurisdiction. Traffic and Revenue Study The Commission has engaged Stantec Consulting Services Inc. ("Stantec") to be the traffic consultant for the Project. Stantec has prepared the "Riverside County 91 Express Lanes Extension Investment Grade Study" dated May 9, 2012, as supplemented by Stantec's Supplemental Letter dated May _, 2013 (the "Study"), which is attached hereto as APPENDIX B. The traffic and revenue projections reached in the Study are based on various assumptions and the Study should be read in its entirety. See "TRAFFIC AND REVENUE ESTIMATES." Report of the General Engineering Consultant The Commission has engaged Parsons Transportation Group ("Parsons") to prepare a Report of the General Engineering Consultant (the "Engineering Report") to document and describe the location, preliminary engineering design features, total project cost estimates, projected operation and 57023390.6 4 52 maintenances expenses, renewal and replacement expenses and the procurement schedule of the Project. The Engineering Rep01t is included as APPENDIX C to this Official Statement. Matters addressed in the Engineering Report are based on various assumptions and the Engineering Report should be read in its entirety. Additional Senior Lien Bonds and Parity Obligations The Indenture permits the Commission, subject to certain conditions, to issue from time to time additional Senior Lien Bonds or Parity Obligations secured on a parity with the Series 2013 Bonds. Furthennore, upon the occurrence of a Bankruptcy Related Event while the TIFIA Lender or another federal governmental lender owns the TIFIA Bond, the TIFIA Bond will be deemed to be a Parity Obligation. In such event, the TIFIA Bond would be secured by and payable from the Trust Estate on a parity with the Series 2013 Bonds and any other Outstanding Bonds. The Commission Riverside County Transportation Commission is a county transportation commission duly organized and existing pursuant to the County Transportation Commissions Act, being Division 12 of the Public Utilities Code of the State of California (Section I30000 et seq.) (as amended, the "Act"). The Commission was established in 1977 to oversee the funding and coordination of all public transp01tation services within the County of Riverside (the "County"). The Commission serves as the tax authority and implementation agency for the voter-approved Measure A Transportation Improvement Program, which imposes a half-cent sales tax within the County to fund transportation improvements. The Commission has also been designated as the congestion management agency (the "CMA") for the County. As the CMA, the Commission has developed a congestion management program that more effectively utilizes transportation funds by linking land use, transportation and air quality efforts. The Commission serves as the service authority for freeway emergencies and operates the freeway service patrol (the "FSP") for the County. The results of these programs -597 call boxes along the County roadways and 21 FSP tow trucks providing assistance to more than 43,100 motorists annually -are among the most visible of the Commission's programs. For additional infonnation regarding the Commission, see "THE COMMISSION." Investment Risks Investment in the Series 2013 Bonds involves certain risks, some of which are discussed throughout this Official Statement. The statements contained in this Official Statement, and in other information provided by the Commission, that are not purely historical, are forward-looking statements, including statements regarding the Commission's expectations, hopes, intentions or strategies regarding the future. Readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements included in this Official Statement are based on infonnation available to the Commission on the date hereof, and the Commission assumes no obligation to update any such forward-looking statements. See "RISK FACTORS" for a discussion of several investment considerations that should also be considered in evaluating an investment in the Series 2013 Bonds. 57023390.6 5 53 THE SERIES 2013 BONDS General The Series 2013A Bonds will be dated their date of delivery, will bear interest from that date at the· rates per annum, computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months, and will mature on June I in the years shown on the inside cover of this Official Statement. Each Series 20 13A Bond will bear interest from the latest of: (i) its delivery date; (ii) the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid thereon or duly provided for, or (iii) if the date of authentication of such Series 2013A Bond is after a Record Date but prior to the immediately succeeding Interest Payment Date, the Interest Payment Date immediately succeeding such date of authentication. The Series 2013B Bonds will not bear current interest; each Series 2013B Bond will increase in value by the accumulation of earned interest from its initial principal amount shown on the inside cover of this Official Statement on the date of issuance thereofto the Maturity Value thereof at maturity, assuming in any period that the value increases in equal daily amounts on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. The interest on the Series 2013B Bonds will be compounded commencing on December 1, 2013, and thereafter on June I and December 1 in each year to maturity [or the date of redemption prior thereto]. The principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Series 2013A Bonds and the Accreted Value of the Series 2013B Bonds will be payable in lawful currency of the United States of America. While the Series 20 I 3 Bonds are Book-Entry Obligations, payment of debt service (including the Accreted Value of the Series 2013B Bonds) will be made to the Securities Depository or its Nominee, and in accordance with arrangements among the Commission, the Trustee and the Securities Depository. During any period in which the Series 2013 Bonds are not Book-Entry Obligations, the principal of and premium, if any, or the Accreted Value on all such Series 2013 Bonds will be payable by wire or check at the Principal Office of the Trustee upon the presentation and surrender of such Series 2013 Bonds as the same become due and payable, and the interest on the Series 20 13A Bonds will be paid by wire or check drawn upon the Trustee and mailed on the applicable interest payment date to the persons in whose names the Series 20 I 3A Bonds are registered on the registration books maintained by the Trustee at the close of business on the record date for such interest payment. Book-Entry System -/ DTC will act as securities depository for the Series 2013 Bonds. The Series 2013 Bonds will be issued as fully-registered bonds registered in the name of Cede & Co. (DTC's partnership nominee). One fully-registered Series 2013 Bond will be issued for each maturity of the Series 2013 Bonds, each in the aggregate principal amount of such maturity, and will be deposited with DTC. Ultimate purchasers of Series 2013 Bonds will not receive physical certificates representing their interest in the Series 2013 Bonds. Payment of the principal of and interest on the Series 2013 Bonds will be made directly to DTC, or its nominee, Cede & Co., by the Trustee so long as DTC or Cede & Co. is the registered owner of the Series 2013 Bonds. Disbursement of such payments to DTC's Participants is the responsibility of DTC and disbursement of such payments to the Beneficial Owners is the responsibility of DTC's Participants and Indirect Participants. See "APPENDIX G-BOOK-ENTRY SYSTEM." 57023390.6 6 54 Redemption Optional Redemption of Series 2013A Bonds. The Series 20 13A Bonds maturing on or before June I, 20 _ shall not be subject to redemption prior to their respective stated maturities. The Series 20 13A Bonds maturing on or after June I, 20 _ shall be subject to redemption prior to their respective stated maturities, at the option of the Commission, from any source of available funds, as a whole or in part, on any date on or after June I, 20 _ at the principal amount of Series 20 13A Bonds called for redemption plus accrued interest to the date fixed for redemption, without premium. Mandatory Sinking Fund Redemption of Series 2013A Bonds. The Series 20 13A Bonds maturing on June I, 20 _ and June I, 20 _, respectively, shall also be subject to mandatory redemption prior to their respective stated maturities, in part, by lot, from Sinking Fund Installments on each June I a Sinking Fund Installment is due as specified below, in the principal amount equal to the Sinking Fund Installment due on such date and at a redemption price equal to I 00% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued but unpaid interest to the redemption date, without premium. Series 20 13A Bonds Maturing June 1, __ _ Sinking Fund Installment Dates (June 1) (I) (I) Final Maturity. Sinking Fund 1 nstallments Series 2013A Bonds Maturing June I, __ Sinking Fund Installment Dates (June I) (I) (I) Final Maturity. Sinking Fund Installments [Series 2013B Bonds Not Subject to Redemption. The Series 20 13B Bonds are not subject to redemption prior to maturity.] Selection of Series 2013A Bonds to be Redeemed. The Commission will designate which maturities of Series 20 13A Bonds are to be called for redemption and what Sinking Fund Installments are to be reduced as allocated to such redemptions. Whenever provision is made in the Indenture for the redemption of less than all of the Series 20 13A Bonds maturing on a specific maturity date, the Trustee will select the Series 20 13A Bonds of such maturity to be redeemed, from the Outstanding Series 20 13A Bonds of such maturity not previously called for redemption, in minimum denominations of $5,000 (of principal), by lot in any manner which the Trustee in its sole discretion will deem appropriate. In the 57023390.6 7 55 event Series 20 13A Term Bonds are designated for redemption, the Commission may designate the Sinking Fund Installments, or portions thereof, that are to be reduced as allocated to such redemption. The Trustee will promptly notify the Commission in writing of the Series 20 13A Bonds so selected for redemption. Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraph, so long as the Series 20 13A Bonds are registered in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee of DTC, and less than all of such Series 20 13A Bonds within a maturity are being redeemed, the Series 20 13A Bonds to be redeemed will be determined by DTC. DTC's current practice is to determine by lot the amount of the interest of each DTC Participant in such maturity to be called for redemption and each DTC Participant is to then select by lot the ownership interest in each maturity to be redeemed. Neither the Commission nor the Trustee will have any responsibility to Direct Participants, Indirect Participants, or the persons for whom Direct Participants act as nominees, with respect to the providing of notice of redemption or the selection of Series 20 13A Bonds for redemption. See"-Book-Entry System" herein. Notice and Conditional Redemption. Unless otherwise specified in a Supplemental Indenture creating a Series of Obligations, each notice of redemption will be mailed by the Trustee, not less than twenty (20) nor more than sixty (60) days prior to the redemption date, to each Owner and to the MSRB. Notice of redemption to the Owners will be given by first class mail. Each notice of redemption will state the date of such notice, the date of issue of the Obligations to which such notice relates, the redemption date, the redemption price, the place or places of redemption (including the name and appropriate address or addresses of the Trustee), the CUSIP number (if any) of the maturity or maturities, and, in the case of Obligations to be redeemed in part only, the identity of the Obligations to be redeemed. Except in the case of conditional optional redemption, each such notice will also state that on said date there will become due and payable on each of said Obligations the redemption price thereof, together with interest accrued thereon to the date fixed for redemption, and that from and after such redemption date interest thereon will cease to accrue, and will require that such Obligations be then surrendered at the address or addresses of the Trustee specified in the redemption notice. Neither the Commission nor the Trustee will have any responsibility for any defect in the CUSIP number that appears on any Obligation or in any redemption notice with respect thereto, and any such redemption notice may contain a statement to the effect that CUSIP numbers have been assigned by an independent service for convenience of reference and that neither the Commission nor the Trustee will be liable for any inaccuracy in such numbers. Failure of any Owner to receive any notice of redemption or any defect therein will not affect the sufficiency of any proceedings for redemption. Any notice of optional redemption of the Obligations may be conditional, and if any condition stated in the notice of redemption will not have been satisfied on or prior to the redemption date, said notice will be of no force and effect and the Commission will not be required to redeem the Obligations thereby called for redemption, such Obligations shall not become due and payable, and the redemption will be cancelled and the Trustee will within a reasonable time thereafter give notice, to the persons and in the manner in which the notice of redemption was given, that such condition or conditions were not met and that the redemption was cancelled. In addition, the Commission may, at its option, on or prior to the date fixed for optional redemption in any notice of redemption of the Obligations, rescind and cancel such notice of redemption by Written Request of the Commission to the Trustee, and any optional redemption of Obligations and notice thereof will be rescinded and cancelled and the Trustee will mail notice of such cancellation to the recipients of the notice of redemption being cancelled. Any optional redemption of Obligations and notice thereof will be rescinded and cancelled if for any reason on the date fixed for optional redemption moneys are not available in the Redemption Fund or otherwise held in trust for such purpose in an amount sufficient to pay in full on said date the principal of, interest, and any premium due on the Obligations called for optional redemption and such failure to optionally redeem the Obligations called for redemption will not be a default under the Indenture. 57023390.6 8 56 Purchase In Lieu of Redemption. In lieu of mandatory redemption from Sinking Fund Installments, the Commission may surrender to the Trustee for cancellation Series 20 13A Term Bonds purchased on the open market and such Series 2013A Term Bonds will be cancelled by the Trustee. If any Series 20 l3A Term Bonds are so cancelled, the Commission may designate the Sinking Fund Installments or portions thereof that are to be reduced as allocated to such cancellation. SOURCES OF PAYMENT AND SECURITY FOR THE SERIES 2013 BONDS Sources of Payment Limited Obligations. The Series 2013 Bonds are special, limited obligations of the Commission payable solely from, and secured on an equal and ratable basis with other Senior Lien Bonds and Parity Obligations issued in the future solely by a first lien on and pledge of the Trust Estate, subject only to the provisions of the Indenture permitting the prior application thereof for the purposes and on the terms and conditions set forth in the Indenture. The Series 20 13 Bonds are not secured by a mortgage or deed of trust on, or other security interest in, the Project. NEITHER THE FAITH AND CREDIT NOR THE TAXING POWER OF THE COUNTY OF RIVERSIDE, THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA OR ANY POLITICAL SUBDIVISION OR PUBLIC AGENCY THEREOF, OTHER THAN THAT OF THE COMMISSION TO THE EXTENT OF THE PLEDGE OF THE REVENUES, IS PLEDGED TO THE PAYMENT OF THE PRINCIPAL OF OR INTEREST ON THE SERIES 2013 BONDS.

Rate Covenant and Annual Budget The Commission covenants that it shall at all times, beginning in the second Fiscal Year following the Substantial Completion Date, establish, levy, maintain and collect tolls in connection with the Toll Road and establish such charges for use of the property constituting part of the Toll Road, including, without limitation and as permitted by law, leasehold payments, concession payments, rents and other charges, as shall be sufficient, collectively, to produce Net Revenue in each Fiscal Year, in an amount at least equal to the greater of (I), (2), or (3) below: (I) one hundred __ percent (I_%) of the Annual Debt Service in such Fiscal Year on all Outstanding Senior Lien Bonds and Parity Obligations; or (2) one hundred __ percent (1_%) of the Annual Debt Service in such Fiscal Year on all Outstanding Senior Lien Bonds and Parity Obligations, Permitted Second Lien Obligations and Subordinate Obligations; or 57023390.6 19 67 (3) one hundred percent (I 00%) of the Annual Debt Service in such Fiscal Year on all Outstanding Obligations, plus the amounts required to be deposited into the Senior Lien Bond Reserve Fund, the Permitted Second Lien Obligations Reserve Fund, the Subordinate Obligations Reserve Fund and the Repair and Rehabilitation Fund and any other Fund established by a Supplemental Indenture to be funded by Revenue. In making the calculations in (I), (2), and (3) above, the Commission may take into consideration as a credit against Annual Debt Service any amounts received, or reasonably expected to be received, in the Fiscal Year from or as a result of any additional security granted or pledged to the Bondholders by the Commission with respect to the Obligations; provided, that if the pledge is not for the benefit of all Obligations, the amounts expected to be received may only be taken into account when making the calculation for the affected Obligations. Beginning in the second Fiscal Year following the commencement of toll collections by the Commission for use of the Toll Road pursuant to the Cooperative Agreement, the Commission covenants: (i) to compute projected Net Revenue for each Fiscal Year and the projected ratios described in (1), (2) and (3) above (the "Coverage Ratios") within ten Business Days after the beginning of that Fiscal Year (such date of computation being hereinafter referred to as a "Coverage Calculation Date"); (ii) to furnish promptly to the Trustee a Certificate of the Commission setting forth the results of such computations; and (iii) if any Coverage Ratio is less than the applicable rate requirement, to take such action as promptly as practicable after the Coverage Calculation Date (including, without limitation, increasing Toll Revenues through toll increases) as the Commission projects is necessary to cause the projected Coverage Ratios for that Fiscal Year to equal or exceed the rate requirement. Within 60 days after the end of each Fiscal Year (beginning with the second Fiscal Year following the commencement of toll collections by the Commission for use of the Toll Road pursuant to the Cooperative Agreement), the Commission will tile with the Trustee a report setting fm1h the Net Revenue for such Fiscal Year. The failure of toll rates to yield an amount sufficient to achieve the Coverage Ratio shall not be deemed to constitute an Event of Default so long as the Commission complies with the requirements set forth below. If any such report indicates that the Net Revenue for such Fiscal Year were Jess than the amount required, then as soon as practicable after delivering such report to the Trustee, the Commission shall employ a Traffic Consultant to review and analyze the operations of the Toll Road and to submit to the Board, as soon as practicable (but not later than such date as will enable the Board to act upon it within 180 days after the end of the Fiscal Year in question), a written report which shall include the actions that the Traffic Consultant recommends should be taken by the Commission with respect to (i) revising the toll rates, (ii) altering its methods of operation, or (iii) taking other action projected to produce the amount so required in the following twelve month period (or, if Jess, the maximum amount deemed feasible by the Traffic Consultant and that the Traffic Consultant estimates will not adversely affect the amount of Net Revenue). Promptly upon its receipt of such written report (and, in any case, within 180 days after the end of the Fiscal Year in question), after giving due consideration thereto, the Commission will revise the toll rates, as permitted by law, alter its methods of operation, or take such other action as it deems appropriate. Such revisions, alterations, or actions need not comply with the recommendations of the Traffic Consultant so long as Net Revenue projected by the Traffic Consultant to be produced by the revisions, alterations or actions then taken by the Commission are at least equal to the amount required under the Indenture. The Commission further covenants that such toll rates for traffic using the Toll Road will be established and maintained in a reasonable way to cover all traffic (other than vehicles used for maintaining the Toll Road; police, tire, and other public emergency vehicles; buses owned and operated by any public agency; vehicles with multiple passengers or which allow for a limited number of passengers, including motorcycles, according to policies determined by the State or the Commission; 57023390.6 20 68 electric, hybrid-electric and other vehicles that meet emission-reduction policies determined by the State of the Commission; vehicles which are otherwise exempt from payment of tolls under State or federal law; and any vehicles during a public emergency declared by the Commission) consistent with the requirements hereof, but with such classifications as the Commission may deem appropriate. Notwithstanding any prOVISIOn to the contrary, nothing in the Indenture shall be deemed to require the Commission to collect tolls and other fees with respect to which the Commission has determined, based upon a report from a Traffic Consultant, that the costs of collection would exceed the amount of tolls and other fees expected to be collected; and provided further that nothing contained in the Indenture shall prevent the Commission from temporarily reducing or eliminating tolls and other fees in connection with programs which it intends to use to increase Net Revenue.

The Commission serves as the tax authority and implementation agency for the voter-approved Measure A Transportation Improvement Program, which imposes a half-cent sales tax to fund transpm1ation improvements. In addition to the Commission's Measure A responsibilities, the Commission has also been designated as the congestion management agency (the "CMA") for the County. As the CMA, the Commission has developed a congestion management program that more effectively utilizes transportation funds by linking land use, transportation and air quality efforts. The Commission serves as the service authority for freeway emergencies and operates the freeway service patrol (the "FSP") for the County. The results of these programs-597 call boxes along the County roadways and 21 FSP tow trucks providing assistance to more than 43, I 00 motorists annually -are among the most visible of the Commission's programs. In 1998, the State Legislature gave new authority to the Commission by changing the way funding is distributed from the State Transportation improvement Program, which is funded through state and federal gas taxes. In simple terms, counties no longer apply to the State for funding their most urgent transportation needs. Instead, State transportation dollars are given directly as an entitlement, leaving the decision making about transportation spending up to the designated county transportation commission like the Commission. While this gives the Commission greater control over how transportation dollars are spent, it also requires a much higher level of local communication and participation to determine how these dollars are spent throughout a county with so many transportation needs. The Commission has the responsibility to program funds received under the California Transportation Development Act, a statewide source of funding for transit purposes, primarily to the County's major public transit providers, although the Commission has no responsibility to provide transit services. To enhance County-wide participation and improve its decision-making, the Commission made a major change in its structure in 1999 by expanding the Board from eight members to 30. The Board expanded in 2008, 2010 and 2011 with the addition of four members in total representing newly incorporated cities. The current Board now has 34 members. The expanded Commission ensures better representation throughout the County and provides the participatory framework for continued success in carrying out these responsibilities. The Transportation Expenditure Plan On November 5, 2002, 69.2% of the voters of the County approved Measure "A"-The Riverside County Transportation Commission Transportation Expenditure Plan (the "Plan") and Retail Transaction and Use Tax Ordinance which expressed the following concerns in its preamble: "The transportation system in Riverside County is rapidly deteriorating and our population and economy are growing rapidly. Maintenance and repairs of existing roadways and improvements to relieve congestion cannot be accomplished with available funds. Without additional funds, the system will bog down and pavement will crumble into permanent disrepair .... Local governments must either generate revenues to expand our system and maintain our investments or watch the system collapse and endanger the health, welfare and safety of all Riverside County residents." 57023390.6 23 71 The goals of the Plan are as follows: (1) Maintain and improve the quality of life in Riverside County by supplementing existing funds for transportation; (2) provide for accountability in the expenditure of taxpayer funds; (3) provide for equity in the distribution of Measure "A" Revenues; and (4) provide for local control ofthe Transportation Improvement Program. To address the concerns as expressed in the preamble, and to accomplish its goals and policies, the ordinance provided that sales tax revenues be distributed to the specific geographic areas of Riverside County (i.e., Western County, Coachella Valley, and Palo Verde Valley) based on their proportionate share of revenues generated in the County, and that funds be allocated for highway and regional arterial projects, local streets and roads, transit and commuter rail, new corridors and economic development. In the Western County, $370 million is to be used for new corridor projects, $1.020 billion for highway projects, $300 million for regional arterial projects, $390 million for public transit, $970 million for local street and road improvements, $270 million for bond financing costs, and the remaining $40 million for economic development projects. In the Coachella Valley, 50 percent is to be earmarked for its highway and regional arterial system, 35 percent for local streets and roads, and the remaining fifteen percent for transit. All Palo Verde Valley funds are designated for the maintenance of local streets and roads. Commissioners Section 130053 of the California Public Utilities Code specifies that the Commission consists of five members of the County Board of Supervisors, one member from each incorporated city in County (each of whom must be a mayor or member of the City Council) and one non-voting member appointed by the governor of the State of California. The role of the Commission is to act as the policy-making board for Riverside County transportation activities.

He holds a bachelors of science degree in civil engineering from the California Polytechnic State University at San Luis Obispo and a masters degree in business from the California State University at Fullerton. THE RIVERSIDE SR-91 CORRIDOR IMPROVEMENT PROJECT State Route 91 ("SR-91") is an east-west limited access highway running from the I-405 in Los Angeles at its western end to the interchange of I-215 and SR-60 in Riverside County on its eastern end. The existing SR-91 cross section typically consists of four general purpose ("GP") lanes, varying in width from 11 feet to 12 feet, as well as auxiliary lanes in each direction. In Orange County, two tolled express lanes ("OCTA SR-9 1 Express Lanes") are operated in each direction by the Orange County Transportation Authority ("OCTA"). The OCTA SR-91 Express Lanes are in the median area, beginning west of the SR-91 /SR-55 interchange and terminating near the Riverside/Orange county line. These express lanes transition into one high occupancy vehicle ("HOV'') Jane in each direction in Riverside County. Two major freeway facilities intersect the Project, including 1-15 and SR-71. The Project will extend the OCTA SR-91 Express Lanes from the Orange County/Riverside County Line approximately eight (8) miles to the 1-15/SR-91 Interchange in Riverside, California by constructing one general purpose lane in each direction from SR-91 /SR-71 interchange to 1-15, and converting the existing HOY into a tolled express lane providing two tolled express lanes and five (5) general purpose Janes in each direction. The Project also includes a two (2) lane direct tolled connector approximately 2.8 miles in distance providing SR-91 tolled express lanes access/egress with I-15 South. This direct tolled connector comme?1ces near Grand Avenue on SR-91, and ends on 1-15 South near Ontario Avenue in the City of Corona. All of the Commission sponsored tolled express lanes are referred to herein as the "RCTC SR-91 Express Lanes." Other Project improvements include reconstruction with geometric improvements of five local interchanges, addition of auxiliary Janes and other operational improvements, installation of an electronic toll collection ("ETC') system, construction of new and widened bridges, retaining walls, sound walls and aesthetics improvements, and the addition of a collector-distributor system with braided ramps in the vicinity ofthe SR-91/1-15 interchange. 57023390.6 25 73 The OCTA SR-91 Express Lanes, operated by the OCTA, feature fully automated tolling, including the first application of managed lane variable pricing in the United States. The variable pricing approach adjusts toll rates based on the number of vehicles on the road to maintain "free flow" conditions and maximize throughput. Using the OCTA SR-91 91 Express Lanes as extended by the Project, commuters are expected to save 30 minutes on average on the eight-mile segment of SR-91 in Riverside County. CONSTRUCTION OF THE PROJECT Components of the Project The Project has been divided into two major phases for delivery-Phase I (Project Development) and Phase II (Design-Build). The Project Development phase covers the activities prior to financial close and issuance of the full notice to proceed to the design-builder. These activities generally include performing preliminary engineering, conducting traffic and revenue studies, obtaining the required environmental approvals, beginning of early right-of-way ("ROW') acquisitions, negotiating various agency agreements for environmental, design, construction, and operations, negotiating utility relocation agreements, obtaining state and federal tolling authority, securing state design-build authority, developing and adopting a toll policy, development of the design-build procurement documents, selection of the design-build contractor, award of the contract and issuance of a limited notice to proceed, and securing of Project funding. The Design-Build phase includes the activities that begin with financial close and issuance of the full notice to proceed and conclude upon Project final acceptance. These activities generally include the completion of the ROW acquisitions, the design and construction of the Project, commencement of toll operations and revenue collection, and project closeout. Parsons Transportation Group, acting as the Commission's project and construction manager, has provided estimated costs for the Project derived from detailed design work and analysis of current costs for comparable components. The Federal Highway Administration and Caltrans conducted a Cost Estimate Review ("CER") that examined the projected Project costs and concluded that there was a 99.5% confidence level in the estimate under their established methodology. [DELETE SINCE WE WILL HAVE A FIRM CONTRACT? MIGHT BE RELEVANT TO GIVE SOME ASSURANCE THAT CONTRACT PRICE IS FEASABLE?] Construction Contract The Commission and Atkinson/Walsh, a Joint Venture (the "Design-Builder") have entered into that certain Design-Build Contract (the "DB Contract"), a lump sum design-build contract pursuant to which the Design-Builder has agreed to perform all work for which it is responsible to obtain completion ofthe Project by the deadlines specified in the DB Contract. The DB Contract incorporates the following terms and provisions: Scope. [DESCRJBE DESCRIPTION OF SCOPE OF WORK. ALSO INCLUDE DESCRIPTION OF JNTERF ACE BETWEEN DESIGN-BUILDER AND COFIROUTE] Contract Price. As full compensation for the work and all other obligations to be performed by the Design-Builder, the Commission will pay to the Design-Builder a lump sum "Contract Price" of $ . Payments are to be made on the basis of progress by the Design-Builder, subject to a cap on the aggregate amount of payments which may be made to the Design-Builder at any specified time. 57023390.6 26 74 Retainage. The Commission will withhold funds (the "Retainage") from each payment to be made to the Design-Builder until such time as substantial completion is achieved, and thereafter will cease withholding Retainage from future payments. The Retainage will be an amount equal to 5% of the payment amount, after subtracting any amounts owing for design services and construction management services. Completion Deadline. Authorization allowing Design-Builder to proceed with work under the DB Contract will be provided by the Commission's issuance of a notice to proceed. Notice to proceed will be issued in two phases. The first notice to proceed (NTPI) was issued following the execution of the DB Contract on May 8, 2013. Issuance ofNTP1 authorized the Design-Builder to begin the planning and designing related work. The second notice to proceed (NTP2) is required to be issued no earlier than 120 days after issuance ofNTPl. The issuance ofNTP2 authorizes the Design-Builder to perfonn all other work and activities for the Project. The Design-Builder is required to achieve substantial completion within I ,218 days after the effective date ofNTP2, which is expected to be issued no earlier than September 2013. If the issuance of NTP2 is delayed due to acts or omissions of the Design-Builder or any of its related entities, the Design-Builder is required to achieve substantial completion within 1,218 days after close of the financing for the Project (including the Series 2013 Bonds). The Design-Builder is required to achieve final completion within 120 days after substantial completion and achieve final acceptance within 120 days after final completion. Force Majeure Event. The Contract Price is subject to increase for additional costs, and the completion deadline is subject to extension, due to a "Force Majeure Event," [as defined in the DB Contract. Force Majeure Events include events that could not have been avoided by the exercise of caution, due diligence or reasonable efforts by the Design-Builder or its related entity and include events such as natural disasters, epidemics, civil unrest, war, major legislation or regulation inability to obtain required approvals.] [IN THE ALTERNATIVE, PROVIDE COMPLETE DEFINITION FROM DB CONTRACT?] Liquidated Damages. The Design-Builder will be liable for and pay the Commission liquidated damages with respect to any failure to achieve substantial completion, completion and final acceptance by the applicable deadlines, subject to any Force Majeure Event relief provided in the CB Contract. The amount of such liquidated damages are as follows: • $95,000 for each day after the substantial completion deadline through the date of substantial completion, not to exceed 365 days; • $8,000 for each day after the completion deadline through the date of completion, not to exceed 365 days; and • $5,000 for each day after the final acceptance deadline and through the final acceptance date, not to exceed 365 days. Any portion of liquidated damages that is deposited to the Project Fund or an Account therein and applied or reserved for payment of Project Costs relating to the Toll Road during a period of delayed completion are not included in Toll Revenues. Accordingly, such portion of liquidated damages would not be available to pay debt service on the Series 2013 Bonds. 57023390.6 27 75 Performance and Payment Bond. On or before the issuance by the Commission of the initial notice to proceed, the Design-Builder is required to deliver to the Commission a performance bond and a payment bond, each in the initial amount of $50 million. Upon the issuance of the final notice to proceed, the amount of each of the performance bond and the payment bond will increase to $250 million. [DESCRIBE REQUIREMENTS FOR DRAW AND POTENTIAL DEFENSES] See "RISK FACTORS -Construction Risks-Payment and Performance Bonds." Guarantees. Each of The Walsh Group, Ltd. and Clark Construction Group, LLC (each, a "DB Guarantor") has executed a guaranty (each, a "DB Guaranty") in favor of the Commission that guarantees on an unconditional basis the full and prompt payment and performance when due of all of the obligations of the Design-Builder arising out of, in connection with, under or related to the DB Contract (including, without limitation, the Design-Builder's obligation to make payment to the Commission for liquidated damages, stipulated damages, and indemnity). Under each DB Guaranty, the DB Guuarantor is entitled to the benefit of all defenses available to the Design-Builder under the DB Contract. Insurance. The Design-Builder is required to obtain and maintain a construction insurance program with project-specific limits for commercial general liability, pollution liability, professional liability, and builder's risk. All such policies are required to be procured from insurance companies with an A.M. Best and Company rating level of A-: Class VI or better, or as approved by the Commission and authorized or approved to do business in the State. Furthermore, the Design-Builder is required to obtain delay coverage for loss of revenue due to accidental physical damage to the Project. Valuation will be based on estimated toll revenues with a period of indemnity limited to a period of no less than one year. The minimum loss valuation is $95,000 per day on an agreed basis. See "RISK FACTORS-Construction Risks-Limited Insurance Coverage." Design-Builder [IN FORMA TJON REGARDING DESlGN-BUILDER TO COME] Right-of-Way Acquisition The Project will require the acquisition of 74.27 acres of right-of-way, consisting of 248 parcels at an estimated cost of $144,100,000. As of the date of this Official Statement, the Commission has acquired 44 parcels at a cost of $36,668,000. [UPDATE PRIOR TO PRINTING] To address the specific risks associated with right-of-way acquisition that could hinder the ability of the Commission to meet the Project-specific goals and objectives, the Commission has implemented the following: • Development of a Project-specific ROW acquisition management plan (RAMP); • Implementation of a parcel mitigation planning program to minimize parcel impacts and reduce damages; • Implementation of an advanced and early acquisition program; and • Greater involvement of public outreach personnel in the acquisition process. 28 5 7023390.6 7 6 In addition, the Commission has entered into cooperative agreements with each of City of Corona and the County of Riverside outlining the roles and responsibilities of the Commission and the City of Corona or the County of Riverside, as applicable, relative to ROW acquisition, among other things. To the extent necessary, the Commission will use its power of eminent domain to acquire the necessary parcels. [DESCRIBE PLAN OF DISPOSITION OF SURPLUS AND FUNDING OF TJFIA RESERVE, FROM WHERE ROW ACQUISITION COSTS WJLL BE FUNDED AND SOURCE OF ESTIMATE OF TOTAL ROW COSTS] Environmental Studies Construction of the Project requires a variety of federal and state environmental perm its and other approvals. While the Commission expects to obtain any such approvals and permits that have not yet been obtained, there can be no assurances that construction of the Project will not be delayed as a result of delays in obtaining perm its and approvals. The major environmental permits with respect to the construction of the Project have been obtained. Preliminary engineering and environmental studies were initiated on the Project in September 2007. The studies determined that a full Environmental Impact Statement ("EJS") and Environmental Impact Report ("EIR") were required. Those documents were prepared by Parsons Brinckerhoff ("PB"). Caltrans is the lead agency for the environmental process under National Environmental Policy Act ("NEPA") delegation. The draft EIS/EIR was circulated in June 2011, and the Commission submitted the final EJS/EIR to Caltrans in October 2011. The Project is included in the 20 I 2 Regional Transportation Plan (RTP) update that was adopted by the regional metropolitan planning organization, the Southern California Association of Governments ("SCAG"), on April 4, 2012. Completion of the environmental review through a Record of Decision ("ROD") occurred in November 2012. Project Costs and Cost Contingencies The following table provides the total costs of the Project including contingency funds: [INSERT TABLE SHOWING BREAK OUT OF THE CONSTRUCTION BUDGET] OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE OF THE PROJECT The Commission will use the services of the existing OCTA SR-91 Express Lanes operator, Cofiroute USA, LLC ("Cofiroute" or the "Toll Operator"), to serve as operator of the RCTC SR-91 Express Lanes. Cofiroute currently is responsible for managing the OCT A SR-9 I Express Lanes operation, which includes revenue collection, customer accounts, violation enforcement, violation processing, incident management and response, and first line maintenance of tolling and traffic equipment. Cofiroute will have the same responsibilities for the RCTC SR-91 Express Lanes. Cofiroute will provide its services pursuant to the SR-91 Express Lanes Operating Agreement, dated ____ , 2013 (the "ORCOA"), by and among the Commission, OCTA and Cofiroute. The ORCOA will result in a single operator providing all operation and [first level] maintenance services for a single SR-91 tolled express lane system in Orange and Riverside Counties with such services payable by each of OCT A and the Commission from the revenues generated by its respective segment. 57023390.6 29 77 The Commission is responsible for roadway maintenance of the RCTC SR-91 Express Lanes infrastructure (e.g. pavement, barriers, channelizers, sign structures, etc.) pursuant to terms of the Toll Facilities Agreement between the Commission and Caltrans. The Commission will contract with Caltrans to perform this maintenance. Caltrans is responsible for the operations and maintenance for all SR-91 roadway elements outside the RCTC SR-91 Express Lanes. Cofiroute will monitor the daily operations of the toll collection system, communications network, internet, phone system, and toll collection equipment to ensure that all system components are fully functional. Specific activities include: • Occupancy Determination • In-Lane Mobile Violation Enforcement • Incident Handing • Traffic Operations • Emergency Services Coordination Cofiroute will actively monitor the volume and traffic flow to ensure proper congestion management toll pricing and display. It will ensure that the toll rate, set quarterly, is an accurate reflection of actual conditions, and that the correct toll rate is posted on the changeable message signs. Cofiroute is also responsible for maintenance of all elements of the toll collection system. It will provide 24/7 coverage for all maintenance-related activities for the toll collection system, providing customer assistance as needed. This includes all hardware, equipment, software, and also firmware maintenance for the toll points, changeable message signs, cameras, communications network hardware, and connections from the network hub to the toll operator's central toll collection system. Cofiroute's back office responsibilities include toll collection system applications software, system servers, system administration, and related peripheral equipment. Pursuant to the OR CO A, approximately six months prior to operational date of the RCTC SR-91 Express Lanes, Cofiroute is required to deliver cash, one or more letters of credit, United States Teasury securities and/or any combination thereof in the combined face amount of $10 million ($5 million of such security to be provided to the Commission and $5 million of such security to be provided to OCTA), as security for the performance of Cofiroute's obligations under the ORCOA. [DESCRIBE EXPERIENCE OF COFJROUTE AND ADDITIONAL TERMS OF ORCOA] Electronic Tolling As with the current OCTA SR-91 Express Lanes, the RCTC SR-91 Express Lanes will include an all-electronic toll collection system that will not accept cash on the road. All users will be required to have an account with a tolling agency that will issue a California standard (Title 21-compliant) FasTrak transponder to the customer. FasTrak transponders are fully interoperable with all toll roads and express lands in California, which will allow these customers to begin using the RCTC SR-91 Express Lanes as soon as it opens with no further administrative action on their part. The RCTC SR-91 Express Lanes will allow toll-free or discounted access to carpool vehicles with three or more occupants, depending on the time of day, and tolled access by single-occupant vehicles and carpools with few than three occupants. The goal of the Project is to make the transition from using the OCT A SR-91 Express Lanes to using the RCTC SR-91 Express Lanes as seam less as possible. 57023390.6 30 78 Tolls will be collected along the route at specific points of entry and departure, termed toll portals, as is currently done on the existing OCTA SR-91 Express Lanes. At the toll portal, an overhead antenna reads the transponder ID, encrypting the number for security causing a charge to be levied to the customer's account for the toll amount. The toll portal is also the point at which cameras record images of the vehicle's license plate for violation enforcement purposes. Cofiroute will be responsible for the proper collection, counting, handling, storage, transferring to the Commission's and OCT A's armored car service, and verification of the disposition of all collected funds. This includes cash payments, payments by credit card, check, or other sources associated with both SR-91 Express Lanes accounts and collections from violations and/or fines. Cofiroute will ensure that all funds are properly handled and stored in a vault prior to transfer to the Commission and OCTA armored car service. Cofiroute willl prepare the daily deposits for armored pickup and shall ensure that all cash and check remittances are kept intact with the deposit slip. Daily deposit records for bank deposit shall be distinguished by: • Type (Cash/Credit Card/Check) • Location • Payment Type (Tolls, Violations, Fees, Deposits, etc.,) Funds shall be transferred by armored car service to the bank designated by the Commission and OCTA and deposited into the custodial account established by the Commission and OCTA. Controls should be established over all cash and checks received at all times. Toll Rates In June 2012, the Commission adopted an "enhanced" toll policy that is based on the OCTA policy, but allows for the increase of off-peak toll rates once certain volume thresholds are exceeded. The enhanced policy is similar to the OCTA policy as it ties toll increases to traffic volumes, though it allows greater toll flexibility during non-peak periods. See "APPENDIX B -RIVERSIDE COUNTY 91 EXPRESS LANES EXTENSION INVESTMENT GRADE STUDY." Toll Violations Enforcement According to California statutes, where video imaging or a photo is used for enforcement, the toll agency can pursue the vehicle's owner for collection of the toll plus administrative fees. Such enforcement measures are to be taken when a vehicle owner is not a registered program customer, has insufficient funds in his or her account, or his or her account has been closed. [DESCRJBE ENFORCEMENT PROCESS AND PARTIES INVOLVED] Cofiroute's back-office system has the is designed to generate warning letters and toll violation notices automatically or to take other actions, as determined by legislation and Commission and OCTA policies. Back-office violation processing functionality includes: • Manual review of the license plate data • Account verification • Retrieval of name and address 31 57023390.6 7 9 " Noticing " Payments " Collections " Court or administrative processing, as applicable Independent Operation and Maintenance Study At the Commission's request, Parsons Transportation Group prepared a Report of the General Engineering Consultant, attached hereto as APPENDIX C, to provide the Commission with an independent engineering opinion with respect to the probable annual operating, maintenance and administrative costs of the new SR-91 Tolled Express Lanes. The Commission has relied on such study in part in projecting Operation and Maintenance Expenses as set forth in the table below entitled "Estimated Cash Flow and Debt Service Coverage Table." [SUMMARY OF KEY FINDINGS TO BE ADDED] PROJECTED FLOW OF FUNDS The projected flow of funds under the Indenture is shown in the table below. See "SOURCES OF PAYMENT AND SECURITY FOR THE SERIES 2013 BONDS-Funds and Accounts; Flow of Funds." Also see "RISK FACTORS-General-Forward-Looking Statements." [INSERT PROJECTED ANNUAL FLOW OF FUNDS TABLE] TRAFFIC AND REVENUE ESTIMATES Stantec Consulting Services Inc. ("Stantec"), as traffic consultant for the Project, has prepared the "Riverside County 91 Express Lanes Extension Investment Grade Study" dated May 9, 2012, as supplemented by Stantec 's Supplemental Letter dated May _, 2013 (the "Study"), which is attached hereto as APPENDIX B. Stantec is one of the top global design firms as ranked by the Engineering News Record, having a professional staff of some 12,000 employees and 160 offices throughout North America and has been serving public and private clients since 1954. Stantec has a group of over 100 transportation professionals of which more than 20 professionals are actively involved with toll facility clients. Stantec's toll facility experience is both broad and diverse, having worked with more than 100 clients in more than 20 states and intemationally. Stantec's investment grade traffic and revenue reports have been the basis for the sale of over $31 billion in revenue bonds. The Study includes discussions of existing travel patterns; the study methodology, including the development, validation and application of the traffic forecasting model; the socioeconomic forecasts; and the highway networks that were used as input to the model. All of this information was used as the foundation for the traffic and revenue forecasts contained in the Study. As part of the study, traffic and revenue streams were estimated for two different tolling policies: (1) implementing the existing OCTA toll policy and (2) implementing an "enhanced" toll policy that is 57023390.6 32 80 based on the OCT A policy, but allows for the increase of off-peak toll rates once certain volume thresholds are exceeded. The enhanced policy, which was adopted by the Commission in June 2012, is similar to the OCTA policy as it ties toll increases to traffic volumes, though it allows greater toll flexibility during non-peak periods. In addition, a sensitivity analysis was performed for a "revenue maximization" toll policy. Using the data and methodologies outlined throughout the Study, 50-year traffic and revenue streams were estimated for both the OCT A and enhanced toll policies. [DELETE?] PLAN OF FINANCE The total cost ofthe Project is estimated at $[1.35] billion. The Project will be financed with (i) the Commission's direct contribution of Measure A Sales Tax Revenues in the approximate amount of $ annually for a period of [three] years and State Transportation Improvement Program funds of the Commission in the approximate amount of$ , (ii) a portion of the proceeds of the Series 2013 Bonds, (iii) a portion of the proceeds of the Commission's Sales Tax Revenue Bonds (Limited Tax Bonds) 2013 Series A (the "201 3 Sales Tax Revenue Bonds"), and (iv) pro.ceeds of the TlFlA Loan, all as more fully described below. The closing with respect to the Series 2013 Bonds, the 2013 Sales Tax Revenue Bonds and the TlFIA Loan are contingent on the successful concurrent closing with respect to all of them on the date of delivery of the Series 2013 Bonds. Information regarding the historical receipts of Measure A Sales Tax Revenues can be found in the Commission's Preliminary Official Statement dated __ , 2013, relating to the 2013 Sales Tax Revenue Bonds, which is hereby incorporated into this Official Statement by specific reference. Estimated Sources and Uses of Bond Proceeds The proceeds from the sale of the Series 2013 Bonds are estimated to be applied as set forth in the following table: Sources of Funds: Principal Amount of Series 2013A Bonds Principal Amount of Series 2013 B Bonds Premium/Original Issue Discount on Series 20 13A Bonds Premium/Original Issue Discount on Series 2013B Bonds Total Sources of Funds Uses of Funds: Senior Lien Obligations Account of Project Fund 2013 Series A Capitalized Interest Account(') 20 13 Bonds Reserve Account 2013 Bonds Costs of Issuance Account(2l (including Total Uses of funds (I) Amount deposited is expected to be sufficient to pay interest on the Series 2013 Bonds through and including m Costs of Issuance include Underwriters' discount, fees and expenses of Bond Counsel, Disclosure Counsel and the Financial Advisor, initial fees and expenses of the Trustee, printing expenses, rating agency fees and other costs. 57023390.6 33 81 Project Sources and Uses of Funds [To be revised with tables describing sources and uses of funds during different phases: financial close, during construction period and operations after completion of construction.] The estimated sources and uses of funds for the Project are summarized in the following table, in nom ina I dollars (with all amounts in thousands).

On April 10,2013, the Commission authorized the issuance of not to exceed $500,000,000 in principal amount of its Sales Tax Revenue Bonds (Limited Tax Bonds), 2013 Series A (the "2013 Sales Tax Revenue Bonds"). Proceeds of the 2013 Sales Tax Revenue Bonds in the approximate amount of$[ 449, 132,000] will be used to finance a portion of the costs of the Project. The 2013 Sales Tax Revenue Bonds are special obligations of the Commission payable from and secured solely by a pledge of certain revenues consisting primarily of receipts from the imposition in the County of a lf2-cent sales tax that became effective on July I, 2009, less certain administrative fees paid to the California State Board of Equalization. The 20 J 3 Sales Tax Revenue Bonds are not payable from or secured by any Revenue securing the Series 2013 Bonds. 57023390.6 34 82 Commission Equity Account. The Commission has covenanted in the Indenture to deposit the following amounts into the Commission Equity Account, or otherwise provide for the payment of Project Costs from sources other than the funds on deposit in the Senior Lien Bonds Account, the Pennitted Second Lien Obligations Account, the Subordinate Obligations Account and the Sales Tax Revenue Bonds Account, as follows: Fiscal Year (ending June 30) Contribution Amount $ Such deposits or expenditures are expected to be made by the Commission from Sales Tax Revenues or other revenues of the Commission avai !able for such purpose. TIFIA Loan TIFIA Loan and TIFIA Bond. Pursuant to the Transportation Infrastructure Finance and Innovation Act of 1998, codified as 23 United States Code, Section 181, et seq. ("TIFIA"), and the Second Supplemental Indenture, dated as of June 1, 2013 (the "Second Supplemental Indenture"), between the Commission and the Trustee, the Commission has entered into the TIFIA Loan Agreement (the "TJFIA Loan Agreement") with the United States Department of Transportation acting by and through the Federal Highway Administrator (the "TJFIA Lender"), pursuant to which the Commission will borrow up to $[451] million for the purpose of financing a portion of the costs of the Project. The TIFIA loan will be evidenced by a toll revenue bond of the Commission (the "TIFIA Bond"). Debt service on the TIFIA Bond is payable semiannually on each 1 and I, commencing 1, 20_. The final maturity date ofthe TIFIA Bond is 1, 20 __ See "ESTIMATED CASH FLOW AND DEBT SERVICE COVERAGE." TIFIA Loan Disbursement Conditions. Any disbursement by the TIFIA Lender of the TIFrA Loan to pay or reimburse the Commission for Eligible Project Costs incurred in connection with the Project, may be made no later than one year after the date on which the Project is open in its entirety to vehicular traffic (the "Substantial Completion Date"). The Commission must satisfY certain requirements and conditions to draw funds under the TIFIA Loan Agreement. Specifically, (a) the proceeds of all disbursements of the Tl FIA Loan may be used only to pay or to reimburse the Commission for Eligible Project Costs incurred by the Commission in connection with the Project, and (b) such disbursements will be made pursuant to a requisition made by the Commission in the form set forth in the TIFIA Loan Agreement and approved by the TIFIA Lender, which form must includes statements to the effect that the Commission (i) is in compliance with all of the terms and conditions ofthe TIFIA Loan Agreement and the Master Indenture and there does not currently exist an Event of Default under the TIFIA Loan Agreement or an event of default under the Master Indenture or any event which with the giving of notice or the passage of time or both would constitute such an Event of Default or event of default and as of the date of the draw; (ii) all documentation evidencing the Eligible Project Costs to be paid for or reimbursed by the disbursement has been delivered by the Commission as set forth in the TIFIA Loan Agreement; and (iii) the amount of the Requisition, together with all prior Requisitions, does not exceed the amount of the TIFIA Loan, and the amount of the Requisition together with the sum of all disbursements ofTIFIA Loan proceeds made and to be made for 57023390.6 35 83 the current year will not exceed the cumulative disbursements through the end of the current year as set forth in the Anticipated TIFIA Loan Disbursement Schedule set forth in the TIFIA Loan Agreement. In addition to the foregoing, each of the following conditions precedent must be satisfied or waived in writing by the TIFIA Lender in its sole discretion: (a) the Commission has certified as to the absence of debarment or suspension or voluntary exclusion from participation in Government contracts, procurement and other matters and has provided to the TIFIA Lender a certificate to that effect in the form attached to the TIFIA Loan Agreement, (b) the Commission has delivered to the TIFJA Lender satisfactory evidence of compliance with the requirements of the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (42 U.S.C. § 4321 et seq.), (c) the Commission has provided to the TJFJA Lender satisfactory evidence that the Project has satisfied the applicable planning and programmatic requirements of 23 U.S.C. §§134 and 135, (d) the Commission has demonstrated to the TIFJA Lender's satisfaction that the funds forecasted to be available under the Base Case Projections will be sufficient to complete the Project, (e) the Commission has provided certified copies of all available agreements and any plans of acquisition related to the acquisition or control of any Project right-of-way to be acquired with the proceeds of the TIFIA Loan, (e) the Commission has demonstrated to the TIFIA Lender's satisfaction that it has all necessary, permits and governmental approvals necessary to commence construction, except those required in the TIFIA Loan Agreement to be obtained by the Design-Build Contractor pursuant to the Design-Build Contract and delivered to the TIFIA Lender, and (f) the Commission has delivered to the to the TIFIA Lender a certified schedule acceptable to the TlFlA Lender demonstrating that the projected Revenues shall be sufficient to meet the Loan Amortization Schedule and meet the requirements of the Rate Covenant.

As described above, the TIFIA Lender is not required to fund the TIFIA Loan if a default under the TIFIA Loan Agreement has occurred and is continuing. An event of default exists under the TIFlA Loan Agreement if: (a) The Commission fails to pay any of the principal amount of or interest on the TIFIA Loan (including, without limitation, TIFIA Debt Service required to have been paid pursuant to the TIFIA Loan Agreement, and any mandatory prepayment required pursuant to the TIFIA Loan Agreement) (each a "Payment Default"); or (b) The Commission fails to observe or perform any covenant, agreement or obligation of the Commission under the TIFIA Loan Agreement, the TIFJA Bond or any other TIFIA Loan Document (other than in the case of any Payment Default any Development Default, and such failure shall not be cured within 30 days after receipt by the Commission from the TIFIA Lender of written notice thereof; provided, however, that if such failure is capable of cure but cannot reasonably be cured within such 30-day period, then no Event of Default shall be deemed to have occurred or be continuing under this clause (ii) if and so long as within such 30-day period the Commission shall commence actions reasonably designed to cure such failure and shall diligently pursue such actions until such failure is cured, provided such failure is cured within 180 days; or (c) The Commission fails to complete the Project by , 2017, unless the Commission demonstrates to the TIFIA Lender's satisfaction that it is proceeding with the construction of the Project with due diligence toward a date acceptable to the TlFIA Lender (a "Development Default"). In such a case, the TIFIA Lender may: (A) suspend the disbursement of the TIFIA Loan proceeds under the TIFIA Loan Agreement; and (B) pursue such other remedies as provided in the TIFIA Loan Agreement, including declaring the TIFIA Default Rate in effect. The Commission shall immediately repay any unexpended TIFJA Loan proceeds previously disbursed to the Commission. The Commission has the right to amend the construction schedule to extend the date for Substantial Completion for a period of up to 60 days (unless a longer extension is required due to the occurrence of an Uncontrollable Force) within thirty (30) days of receipt of notice of an alleged Development Default; provided that the Commission shall provide the TIFIA Lender with (x) a remedial plan with respect to the construction of the Project (a "Remedial Plan") reviewed by a general engineering consultant satisfactory to the TIFIA Lender and (y) a certificate from such general engineering consultant concluding that Substantial Completion is likely to occur by the date specified in the Remedial Plan, and the TIFIA Lender approves the Remedial Plan (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld), or (d) Any of the representations, warranties or certifications of the Commission made in or delivered pursuant to the TlFlA Loan Documents shall prove to have been false or misleading in any material respect when made; or (e) (A) Any of the representations, warranties or certifications of the Commission made in or delivered pursuant to the Master Indenture, or made in or delivered pursuant to the documents (the "Other Loan Documents") under which any Other Material Indebtedness shall be created or incurred, shall prove to be false or misleading in any material respect (each a "Misrepresentation Cross Default"), or any default shall occur in respect of the performance of any covenant, agreement or obligation of the Commission under the Master Indenture or the Other Loan Documents, and such default shall be continuing after the giving of any applicable notice and the expiration of any applicable grace period specified in the Master Indenture or the Other Loan Documents (as the case may be) with respect to such default (each a "Covenant Cross Default"), if the effect of such Misrepresentation Cross Default or Covenant Cross Default shall be to permit the immediate acceleration of the maturity of any or all of the Other Material Indebtedness, and, in the case of any such Misrepresentation Cross Default or Covenant Cross Default, the Commission shall have failed to cure such Misrepresentation Cross Default or 57023390.6 37 85 Covenant Cross Default or to obtain an effective written waiver thereof within 30 days after receipt of written notice thereof from the Tl Fl A Lender; or (B) The Commission defaults in the timely performance of any covenant, agreement or obligation under any Related Document or any Related Document shall be terminated prior to its scheduled expiration (unless in any case such default or termination could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect), and such default shall be continuing after the giving of any applicable notice and the expiration of any applicable grace period specified in the Master Indenture or the Other Loan Documents (as the case may be) with respect to such default and the Commission shall have failed to cure such default or to obtain an effective written waiver thereof, or to obtain an effective revocation of such termination (as the case may be), within 30 days after receipt of written notice thereof from the TIFIA Lender; or (f) One or more judgments for the payment of money in an aggregate amount in excess of [$2,000,000] (inflated annually by CPI) and not otherwise covered by insurance or other reserves shall be rendered against the Commission relating to the Toll Road and the same shall remain undischarged for a period of 30 consecutive days during which execution shall not be effectively stayed; (g) [Failure to Maintain Existence]; or (h) A Bankruptcy Related Event shall occur; or (i) Operation of the Project shall cease for a continuous period of not less than 180 days unless' such cessation of operations shall occur by reason of an Uncontrollable Force and the Commission shall have in force an insurance policy or policies under which the Commission is entitled to recover substantially all Indenture Debt Service on Other Indenture Obligations, Debt Service on the TIFJA Bond and costs and expenses ofthe Commission during such cessation of operations. Whenever any Event of Default under the TIFIA Loan Agreement shall have occurred and be continuing, the TIFIA Lender shall be entitled and empowered to institute any actions or proceedings at law or in equity for the collection of any sums due and unpaid under the TIFIA Loan Agreement or under the TIFIA Bond or the other TIFIA Loan Documents, and may prosecute any such judgment or final decree against the Commission including confession of judgment by the Commission against the Commission and collect in the manner provided by law the moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable from the Trust Estate, and the TIFIA Lender may take such other actions at law or in equity as may appear necessary or desirable to collect all amounts payable by Commission under the TJFIA Loan Agreement, the TIFIA Bond or the other TIFIA Loan Documents then due and thereafter to become due, or to enforce performance and observance of any obligation, agreement or covenant of the Commission under the TIFIA Loan Agreement, the TJFlA Bond or the other TIFlA Loan Documents. Whenever any Event of Default under the TIFIA Loan Agreement involving fraud, misrepresentation, false claims, or similar criminal acts or acts of malfeasance or wrongdoing, shall have occurred and be continuing, the TJFJA Lender may suspend or debar the Commission from further participation in any Government program administered by the TIFJA Lender and to notify other departments and agencies of such default. See "RISK FACTORS -Construction Risks -Conditions to Disbursement under the TIFIA Loan Agreement." The TIFIA Bond will be issued and secured as a subordinate and junior obligation under the Indenture to the Series 2013 Bonds, except as provided below. 57023390.6 38 86 Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Bankruptcy Related Event of the Commission, the TIFIA Obligations will, if the owner of such TIFIA Obligations is the TIFIA Lender or another governmental lender at such time, automatically and without action on the part of the TIFJA Lender or any other person, immediately become Parity Obligations, and be of equal rank and on a parity with the Senior Lien Bonds and other Parity Obligations, and the TIFIA Lender will become and be entitled to all rights of an owner of Senior Lien Bonds under the Indenture (including, without limitation, the right of payment pro rata with other Senior Lien Bonds and Parity Obligations under the Indenture). Upon such event, the money and investments held in the TIFIA Fund will be transferred by the Trustee to the Senior Lien Bond Debt Service Fund, and the money and investments held in the TJFIA Reserve Fund will be transferred by the Trustee to the Senior Lien Bond Debt Service Reserve Fund. As used in the TJFIA Loan Agreement and the Indenture, the term Bankruptcy Related Event means (a) the appointment of a receiver, trustee, liquidator, custodian, sequestrator, conservator or similar official for the Commission or for a substantial part of the assets of the Commission, or (b) the Commission shall (i) apply for or consent to the appointment of a receiver, trustee, liquidator, custodian, sequestrator, conservator or similar official for the Commission or a substantial part of the assets of the Commission, or (ii) become unable generally to pay its debts as they become due, or (iii) make a general assignment for the benefit of creditors, or (iv) be adjudicated a bankrupt or insolvent, or (v) commence a voluntary case under any law relating to insolvency, or file a voluntary petition seeking liquidation, reorganization, an arrangement with creditors or an order for relief, or otherwise seeking to take advantage of any law relating to insolvency, or (vi) take any action for the purpose of effecting any of the foregoing. See "APPENDIX D -SUMMARY OF CERTAIN PROVISIONS OF THE TlFIA LOAN AGREEMENT" for additional information regarding the TIFIA Loan. Series 2013 Bonds Delivery Contingency The delivery and sale of Series 2013 Bonds will be conditioned upon and contemporaneous with the delivery and sale of the 2013 Sales Tax Revenue Bonds and the closing ofthe TIFIA Loan Agreement providing for the TIFIA Loan. 57023390.6 39 87 DEBT SERVICE REQUIREMENTS The following table is the annualized debt service schedule for the Series 2013 Bonds assuming no redemption other than mandatory sinking fund redemption.

Source: The Commission. 57023390.6 41 89 Mandatory TIFIA Bond Debt Service Total Debt Service Cover·age RISK FACTORS The following is a discussion of certain risk factors that should be considered in evaluating an investment in the Series 2013 Bonds. This discussion does not purport to be either comprehensive or definitive. The order in which risks are presented is not intended to reflect either the likelihood that a particular event will occur or the relative significance of such an event. Moreover, there may well be other risks associated with an investment in the Series 2013 Bonds in addition to those set fo11h herein. General The financial forecasts in this Official Statement are based generally upon certain assumptions relating to the timing and costs of the Project, and upon projections as to estimated Toll Revenues and Operation Maintenance Expenses. Inevitably, some underlying assumptions and projections used to develop the forecasts will not be realized, and unanticipated events and circumstances may occur. Therefore, the actual results achieved during the forecast periods will vary from the forecasts, and such differences may be material. Forward-Looking Statements. This Official Statement and Appendices hereto contain "forward-looking statements," which generally can be identified with words or phrases such as "anticipates," believes," "could," "estimates," "expects," "foresees," "may," "plan," "predict," "should," "will" or other words or phrases of similar import. All statements included in this Official Statement and Appendices hereto that any person expects or anticipates will, should or may occur in the future, including but not limited to, the projections in the Riverside County 91 Express Lanes Extension Investment Grade Study, are forward-looking statements. These statements are based on assumptions and analysis made by the Commission and Stantec, as applicable, in light of their experience and perception of historical trends, current conditions and expected future developments as well as other factors they believe are appropriate in the circumstances. However, whether actual results and developments will conform with expectations and predictions is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including, without limitation, the information discussed under this "RISK FACTORS" caption of this Official Statement as well as additional factors beyond the Commission's control. The important risk factors and assumptions described under that caption and elsewhere in this Official Statement could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statement. All of the forward-looking statements made in this Official Statement and any Appendices hereto are qualified by these cautionary statements. There can be no assurance that the actual results or developments anticipated will be realized or, even if substantially realized, that they will have the expected consequences to or effects on the Commission's revenues or operations. All subsequent forward-looking statements attributable to the Commission or persons acting on their behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the factors and assumptions described above and in any documents containing those forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements included in this Official Statement are based on information available to the Commission and the other aforementioned entities on the date hereof, and neither the Commission nor any of such other aforementioned entities assumes any obligation to update any such forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements herein are necessarily based on various assumptions and estimates that are inherently subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, including risks and uncertainties relating to the possible invalidity of the underlying assumptions and estimates and possible changes or developments in social, economic, business, industry, market, legal and regulatory circumstances and conditions and actions taken or omitted to be taken by third parties, including customers, suppliers, business partners and competitors, and legislative, judicial and other governmental authorities and officials. Assumptions related to the foregoing involve judgments with respect to, among other things, future economic, competitive and market conditions and future business decisions, all of which are 57023390.6 42 90 difficult or impossible to predict accurately and, therefore, there can be no assurance that the forward-looking statements included in this Official Statement will prove to be accurate. Limited Obligalions. The Series 2013 Bonds are special, limited obligations of the Commission payable solely from, and secured solely by a first lien on and pledge of the Trust Estate, which consists primarily of Toll Revenues. Toll Revenues will be generated only after the substantial completion of the Project. Other than the pledge of the Trust Estate, the Commission has not mortgaged, assigned or pledged any interest in any real or personal property or improvements, including any interest in the Toll Road or any expansions or extensions thereto, as security for payment of the Series 2013 Bonds. See "SOURCES OF PAYMENT AND SECURITY FOR THE SERIES 2013 BONDS-Sources of Payment -Limited Obligations." Dilution of Senior Lien Security Upon Bankruptcy Related Event. Upon the occurrence of a Bankruptcy Related Event while the TIFIA Lender or another governmental lender owns the TlFIA Bond, the TIFIA Bond will be deemed to be a Parity Obligation. In such event, the TIFIA Bond would be secured by and payable from the Revenue on a parity with other Outstanding Bonds. Furthermore, in such event, the TIFIA Lender, as holder of greater than a majority of the Senior Obligations then Outstanding, would be entitled to exercise remedies under the Indenture without the consent of the owners of the Series 20 13 Bonds. Limitation of Remedies Under the Indenture. The remedies available to Owners of the Series 2013 Bonds upon an Event of Default under the Indenture are limited to the seeking of specific performance or a writ of mandamus or other suit, action or proceeding compelling and requiring the Commission and its officers to observe and perform any covenant, condition or obligation prescribed in the Indenture. No Right to Accelerate Debt Service. NO ACCELERATION REMEDY IS AVAILABLE TO OWNERS OF THE SERIES 2013 BONDS. Owners of the Series 2013 Bonds will, therefore, be able to collect principal and interest that become due after an Event of Default only from the Revenues (after payment of Operation and Maintenance Expenses) or other prope1ty included in the pledge under the Indenture and only when such principal and interest are scheduled to be paid. Enforceability of Remedies. The remedies available under the Indenture depend in many respects upon regulatory and judicial actions that are often subject to discretion and delay. Under existing law, such remedies may not be readily available. In addition, enforcement of such remedies (i) may be subject to general principles of equity which may permit the exercise of judicial discretion, (ii) are subject to the exercise in the future by the State and its agencies and political subdivisions of the police power inherent in the sovereignty of the State, (iii) are subject, in part, to the provisions ofthe United States Bankruptcy Code and other applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights generally, now or hereafter in effect, and (iv) are subject to the exercise by the United States of the powers delegated to it by the federal Constitution. The various legal opinions to be delivered concurrently with the delivery of the Series 2013 Bonds will be qualified to the extent that the enforceability of certain legal rights related to the Series 2013 Bonds is subject to limitations imposed by bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency or other similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally and by equitable remedies and proceedings generally. 57023390.6 43 91 Constmction Risks Construction Delays. Generally, in construction projects of the magnitude of the Project, there is a possibility of time delays and cost increases resulting from (i) design and construction problems and resulting change orders, (ii) escalation of prices or wages or shortages of labor or materials, (iii) environmental litigation or environmental administrative matters, (iv) the unavailability or cost of acquiring right-of-way, (v) utility relocation problems, (vi) archaeological, historic and unidentified or misidentified subsurface conditions, (vii) hazardous materials, (viii) force majeure events, and (ix) litigation. As a result, there can be no assurance that the costs of the Project will not exceed current estimates, or that the completion of the Project will not be delayed beyond the estimated completion dates. Variations in costs estimates and delays in construction could be material. [DESCRIBE IN DETAIL MAJOR APPROVALS THAT NEED TO BE OBTAINED INCLUDING BNSF CONSTRUCTION & MAINTENANCE AGREEMENTS] While Substantial Completion Date for the Project is scheduled for , interest on the Series 2013 Bonds has been capitalized through . No assurances can be given that the amount of capitalized interest will be sufficient to pay debt service on the Series 2013 Bonds if Substantial Completion of the Project is significantly delayed. Conditions to Drawing on the TIFIA Loan Agreement. The Commission expects to draw funds under the TIFJA Loan Agreement to finance the Project. Failure to meet certain disbursement conditions set forth in the TIFIA Loan Agreement as well as an event of default under the TIFIA Loan Agreement may result in the suspension or delay in the disbursement of proceeds of the TIFT A Loan Agreement. No assurances can be given that the amount of capitalized interest will be sufficient to pay debt service on the Series 2013 Bonds if Substantial Completion of the Project is significantly delayed by suspended or delayed funding under the TIFIA Loan Agreement. Payment and Performance Bonds. A potential purchaser of the Series 2013 Bonds can have no assurance that any contractor or subcontractor, guarantor, surety or property insurer will be willing or capable of meeting its responsibilities in connection with the Project, or that the issuer of any performance or payment bond, any guarantee or any property insurance policy will honor or will be able to honor a claim in a timely manner. The total contract price under the DB Contract is$ , and the DB Contract requires payment and perfonnance bonds in an amount equal to $50 million at the time of the initial notice to proceed and $250 million each upon the issuance of the final notice to proceed. See "THE RIVERSIDE SR-91 CORRIDOR IMPROVEMENT PROJECT-Construction of the Project." Although the Commission does not expect its payment obligations outstanding at any one time under the aforementioned construction contracts to exceed the amount of the payment bonds provided by the respective contractor, there can be no assurance that the payment and performance bonds provided by any contractor will be sufficient to satisfy the Commission's payment or perfonnance obligations under the respective construction contract. Not all events are covered under such payment and performance bonds. The issuer of payment and performance bonds is not guaranteeing payment or performance under all circumstances, and the issuer of such bonds may assert any defenses it may have for payment or performance. Moreover, in the event that a default occurs under any construction contract, there is a possibility of litigation between the Commission and the respective contractor, or between the Commission and the providers of the performance bonds and payment bonds, which could further delay the construction and opening of the respective Project. In addition, there can be no assurance that the Commission could recover any amounts under any performance bonds or payment bonds. 57023390.6 44 92 Liquidated Damages. The amount of liquidated damages that the Design-Builder will be required to pay pursuant to the DB Contract for each calendar day that Substantial Completion is not met in connection with opening of the Project to traffic will be limited by contract and may not be sufficient to cover all of the Commission's losses in the event of a delay or a failure to complete the required work in accordance with the plans and specifications, and other requirements of the contract documents. Liquidated damages, if paid, may not be sufficient to enable the Commission to pay the principal and interest on the Series 2013 Bonds and the other amounts required to be paid under the Indenture. There are numerous events that could cause an extension of the respective construction schedule and that could result in increased costs for the Project. Liquidated damages are payable only under certain circumstances and even if paid, may not be sufficient to cover debt service payments on the Series 2013 Bonds. In addition, collection of liquidated damage may require extensive litigation and no assurance can be provided that such amounts will in fact be collected. In addition, the Design-Builder has not waived its rights to contest a demand for payment of liquidated damages. Events of Force Majeure. Construction and operation of the Project are at risk from events of force m~eure, such as earthquakes, or other natural disasters, epidemics, blockades, rebellions, war, riots, acts of sabotage, terrorism or civil commotion, and spills of hazardous materials, among other events. Construction or operations may also be stopped or delayed from non-casualty events such as discovery of additional archaeological artifacts, changes in law, delays in obtaining or renewing Commission-provided permits, revocation of such permits and approvals and litigation, among other things. Limited Insurance Coverage. Although the Contractor is required to provide certain types of insurance coverage during construction of the Project (including delay coverage for loss of revenue due to accidental physical damage to the Project with valuation based on estimated toll revenues with a period of indemnity limited to a period of no less than one year and minimum loss valuation of $95,000 per day on an agreed basis), such required insurance policies do not cover damage and delay from all events that could interrupt construction. Risks that may not be insurable/insured include the following risks that may delay the project without causing property damage: epidemics, blockades, strikes and riots. Other risks that may not be insured/insurable include war, nuclear events, criminal or intentional acts of the insured, unforeseeable environmental or geological conditions, discovery of archaeological artifacts, changes in law, bankruptcy and acts of terrorism. Insurance policies may not be maintained or obtainable in amounts that would be sufficient or be paid in sufficient time in all events to pay all of the Commission's expenses under the Indenture, including debt service on the Series 2013 Bonds. For a description of the types and amounts of insurance coverage to be provided during construction of the Project, see "THE RIVERS I DE SR-91 CORRIDOR IMPROVEMENT PROJECT-Construction of the Project." For a description of the covenants of the Commission to maintain insurance for the Toll Road, see "APPENDIX D-SUMMARY OF CERTAIN PROVISIONS OF THE INDENTURE-Covenants of the Commission-Insurance." Operating Risks The ability for the Toll Road to generate Toll Revenues in amounts sufficient to pay debt service on the Series 2013 Bonds when due will be subject to and could be materially and adversely affected by the risks inherent in the operation of any toll facility. The ability to repay the Series 2013 Bonds will be dependent on the volume of traffic that utilizes the Toll Road, as well as the ability of the Commission and its vendor's computer systems to accurately process data. Revenues to be generated through such use will be influenced by numerous factors, including, among others, the ability to manage toll evasion; the ability to control expenses; the availability of adequately-trained personnel; population, employment and income trends within the region; the congestion on alternative freeways, highways, and streets; time 57023390.6 45 93 savings experienced by utilizing the Toll Road; the toll rates; the availability and price of fuel; and the construction of new or improved competitive roadways or other transit facilities. No Non-Compete Provisions. Neither the Indenture nor the TIFIA Loan Agreement contains restrictions on the ability of the Commission or Caltrans to construct new or improved roadways or other transit facilities that may compete with the Toll Road. Motor Fuel Prices and Taxes. There is no assurance that motor fuel will remain in adequate supply or that motor fuel prices and federal and State motor fuel taxes will not increase. Increases in motor fuel prices could negatively impact the Toll Revenues of the Commission. Additionally, if motor fuel prices increase, it could have a material adverse effect on the economy of the regions served by the Project and the Toll Revenues of the Commission. Traffic and Revenue Report Assumptions. The revenue forecasts (the "Revenue Forecasts") in the Riverside County 91 Express Lanes Extension Investment Grade Study are based upon certain assumptions described in such reports and upon certain additional assumptions described above. See "APPENDIX B-RIVERSIDE COUNTY 91 EXPRESS LANES EXTENSION INVESTMENT GRADE STUDY." Based upon such assumptions, Stantec has expressed its opinion that such revenue forecasts are reasonable and have been prepared in accordance with accepted practice for such studies. As provided in therein, however, such reports are not a guarantee of any future events or trends and the forecasts therein are subject to future economic and social conditions and demographic developments that cannot be predicted with certainty. Further, any of the estimates and assumptions in such reports are inherently subject to significant economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond the control of the Commission. Failure to achieve or realize any of the assumptions described above may have a materially adverse effect upon the Toll Revenues actually realized. Maintenance Costs. Successful operation of the Toll Road will require timely and complete maintenance and replacement of components of the Toll Road. Although the Commission has covenanted in the Indenture to maintain the Toll Road, no assurance can be given that sufficient funds will be available to adequately maintain the Toll Road. Any significant deterioration in the Toll Road may result in increased operating costs and in reduced usage (or even in temporary lane closures) and may adversely affect the amount offunds available to pay debt service on the Series 2013 Bonds. Seismic or Other Casualty to the Toll Road. ln the event of an earthquake, or other similar significant damage to the Toll Road, complete closure of the Toll Road might be required during the time needed for repair. In the event the Toll Road is destroyed or damaged by earthquake or some cause other than ordinary and usual usage thereof, amounts, if any, received from the proceeds of insurance may be used to pay all or any part ofthe cost of reconstructing, restoring, repairing or rehabilitating the Toll Road (including the toll collection systems). There can be no assurance that such amounts will be received, or if received will be sufficient to fully restore, repair or rehabilitate the Toll Road. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The financial statements of the Commission for the Fiscal Year ended June 30, 2012, included in APPENDIX A of this Official Statement, have been audited by McGiadrey LLP, certified public accountants, as stated in their report therein. McGiadrey LLP was not requested to consent to the inclusion of its report in APPENDIX A, nor has it undertaken to update its report or to take any action intended or likely to elicit infonnation concerning the accuracy, completeness or fairness of the statements made in this Official Statement, and no opinion is expressed by McGiadrey LLP with respect to any event subsequent to the date of its report. The Commission represents that, except as described herein, there has been no material adverse change in its financial position since June 30, 2012. 57023390.6 46 94 LITIGATION There is not now pending any litigation restraining or enjoining the issuance or delivery of the Series 2013 Bonds or questioning or affecting the validity of the Series 2013 Bonds or the proceedings and authority under which they are to be issued. Neither the creation, organization or existence of the Commission, nor the title of the present members of the Commission to their respective offices, is being contested. LEGAL MATTERS The validity of the Series 2013 Bonds and certain other legal matters are subject to the approving opinion of Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe LLP, Bond Counsel to the Commission. A complete copy of the proposed form of Bond Counsel opinion is contained in APPENDIX H hereto. Bond Counsel undertakes no responsibility for the accuracy, completeness or fairness of this Official Statement. Compensation paid to Bond Counsel, Disclosure Counsel and Underwriters' Counsel is conditioned upon the successful issuance of the Series 2013 Bonds. Certain legal matters will be passed upon for the Commission by Fulbright & Jaworski L.L.P., Los Angeles, California, as Disclosure Counsel, and by Best Best & Krieger LLP, Riverside, California, the General Counsel for the Commission. Certain legal matters will be passed upon for the Underwriters by Stradling Yocca Carlson & Rauth, a Professional Corporation, Newport Beach, California. TAX MATTERS In the ·opinion of Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe LLP, Bond Counsel to the Commission ("Bond Counsef'), based upon an analysis of existing laws, regulations, rulings and court decisions, and assuming, among other matters, the accuracy of certain representations and compliance with certain covenants, interest on the Series 20 J3 Bonds is excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes under Section I 03 of the Internal Revenue Code of I 986 (the "Code") and exempt from State of California personal income taxes. Bond Counsel is also of the opinion that interest on the Series 2013 Bonds is not a specific preference item for purposes of the federal individual or corporate alternative minimum taxes, although Bond Counsel observes that such interest is included in adjusted current earnings in calculating corporate alternative minimum taxable income. A complete copy of the proposed form of opinion of Bond Counsel is included herein as APPENDIX H. To the extent the issue price of any maturity of the Series 2013 Bonds is less than the amount to be paid at maturity of such Series 2013 Bonds (excluding amounts stated to be interest and payable at least annually over the term of such Series 2013 Bonds), the difference constitutes "original issue discount," the accrual of which, to the extent properly allocable to each owner thereof, is treated as interest on the Series 2013 Bonds which is excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes and State of California personal income taxes. For this purpose, the issue price of a particular maturity of the Series 2013 Bonds is the first price at which a substantial amount of such maturity of the Series 2013 Bonds is sold to the public (excluding bond houses, brokers, or similar persons or organizations acting in the capacity of underwriters, placement agents or wholesalers). The original issue discount with respect to any maturity of the Series 2013 Bonds accrues daily over the term to maturity of such Series 2013 Bonds on the basis of a constant interest rate compounded semiannually (with straight-line interpolations between compounding dates). The accruing original issue discount is added to the adjusted basis of such Series 2013 Bonds to determine taxable gain or loss upon disposition (including sale, redemption, or payment on maturity) of such Series 2013 Bonds. Owners of the Series 2013 Bonds should consult their own tax advisors with respect to the tax consequences of ownership of Series 2013 Bonds with original issue discount, including the treatment of purchasers who do not purchase such Series 2013 Bonds in the 57023390.6 47 95 original offering to the public at the first price at which a substantial amount of such Series 2013 Bonds is sold to the pub! ic. Series 20 I 3 Bonds purchased, whether at original issuance or otherwise, for an amount higher than their principal amount payable at maturity (or, in some cases, at their earlier call date) ("Premium Bonds") will be treated as having amortizable bond premium. No deduction is allowable for the amortizable bond premium in the case of bonds, like the Premium Bonds, the interest on which is excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes. However, the amount of tax-exempt interest received, and a purchaser's basis in a Premium Bond, will be reduced by the amount of amortizable bond premium properly allocable to such purchaser. Owners of Premium Bonds should consult their own tax advisors with respect to the proper treatment of amortizable bond premium in their particular circumstances. The Code imposes various restrictions, conditions and requirements relating to the exclusion from gross income for federal income tax purposes of interest on obligations such as the Series 2013 Bonds. The Commission has made certain representations and covenanted to comply with certain restrictions, conditions and requirements designed to ensure that interest on the Series 20 I 3 Bonds will not be included in federal gross income. Inaccuracy of these representations or failure to comply with these covenants may result in interest on the Series 2013 Bonds being included in gross income for federal income tax purposes, possibly from the date of original issuance of the Series 20 I 3 Bonds. The opinion of Bond Counsel assumes the accuracy of these representations and compliance with these covenants. Bond Counsel has not undertaken to determine (or to inform any person) whether any actions taken (or not taken), or events occurring (or not occurring), or any other matters coming to Bond Counsel's attention after the date of issuance of the Series 2013 Bonds may adversely affect the value of, or the tax status of interest on, the Series 2013 Bonds. Accordingly, the opinion of Bond Counsel is not intended to, and may not, be relied upon in connection with any such actions, events or matters. Although Bond Counsel is of the opinion that interest on the Series 2013 Bonds is excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes and is exempt from State of California personal income taxes, the ownership or disposition of, or the accrual or receipt of interest on, the Series 2013 Bonds may otherwise affect a beneficial owner's federal, state or local tax liability. The nature and extent of these other tax consequences depends upon the particular tax status of the beneficial owner or the beneficial owner's other items of income or deduction. Bond Counsel expresses no opinion regarding any such other tax consequences. Current and future legislative proposals, if enacted into Jaw, clarification of the Code or court decisions may cause interest on the Series 2013 Bonds to be subject, directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, to federal income taxation or to be subject to or exempted from state income taxation, or otherwise prevent Owners from realizing the full current benefit of the tax status of such interest. The introduction or enactment of any such legislative proposals or clarification of the Code or court decisions may also affect, perhaps significantly, the market price for, or marketability of, the Series 2013 Bonds. Prospective purchasers of the Series 2013 Bonds should consult their own tax advisors regarding the potential impact of any pending or proposed federal or state tax legislation, regulations or litigation, as to which Bond Counsel is expected to express no opinion. The op1111on of Bond Counsel is based on current legal authority, covers certain matters not directly addressed by such authorities, and represents Bond Counsel's judgment as to the proper treatment of the Series 2013 Bonds for federal income tax purposes. 1t is not binding on the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") or the courts. Furthermore, Bond Counsel cannot give and has not given any opinion or assurance about the future activities of the Commission, or about the effect of future changes in the Code, 57023390.6 48 96 the applicable regulations, the interpretation thereof or the enforcement thereof by the IRS. The Commission has covenanted, however, to comply with the requirements of the Code. Bond Counsel's engagement with respect to the Series 2013 Bonds ends with the issuance of the Series 2013 Bonds, and, unless separately engaged, Bond Counsel is not obligated to defend the Commission or the beneficial owners regarding the tax exempt status of the Series 2013 Bonds in the event of an audit examination by the IRS. Under current procedures, parties other than the Commission and its appointed counsel, including the beneficial owners, would have little, if any, right to participate in the audit examination process. Moreover, because achieving judicial review in connection with an audit examination of tax-exempt bonds is difficult, obtaining an independent review of IRS positions with which the Commission legitimately disagrees may not be practicable. Any action of the Internal Revenue Service, including but not I im ited to selection of the Series 2013 Bonds for audit, or the course or result of such audit, or an audit of bonds presenting similar tax issues, may affect the market price for, or the marketability of, the Series 2013 Bonds, and may cause the Commission or the beneficial owners to incur significant expense. CONTINUING DISCLOSURE The Commission has agreed to execute the Continuing Disclosure Agreement and will covenant therein for the benefit of the beneficial owners o~ the Series 2013 Bonds to provide certain financial information and operating data relating to the Commission and the Toll Revenues by not later than nine months after the end of the Commission's prior fiscal year (the "Annual Reports"), and to provide notices of the occurrence of certain enumerated events (the "Listed Events"). The Annual Reports and notices of Listed Events will be filed with the MSRB. See "APPENDIX F -FORM OF CONTINUING DISCLOSURE AGREEMENT." The Commission has not, within the past five years, failed to comply in all material respects with any previous continuing disclosure undertaking pursuant to the Rule to provide annual reports or notices of material events. RATINGS The Series 2013 Bonds have received ratings of " " from Fitch Ratings ("Fitch") and " "from Standard & Poor's Ratings Services ("S&P"). An explanation of the significance of each such rating may be obtained from the company furnishing the rating. The ratings reflect only the views of such companies at the time such ratings are given, and the Commission makes no representation as to the appropriateness of the ratings. The Commission and the Commission's Financial Advisors furnished Fitch and S&P with certain information and materials relating to the Series 2013 Bonds that have not been included in this Official Statement. Generally, rating agencies base their ratings on the information and materials so furnished and on investigations, studies, and assumptions by the rating agencies. There is no assurance that a particular rating will be maintained for any given period of time or that it will not be lowered or withdrawn entirely if, in the judgment of the agency originally establishing the rating, circumstances so warrant. Except as described under the caption "CONTINUING DISCLOSURE" herein, neither the Commission nor the Underwriters has undertaken any responsibility to bring to the attention of the registered owners of the Series 2013 Bonds any proposed revision or withdrawal of the rating of the Series 20 J 3 Bonds or to oppose any such proposed revision or withdrawal. Any such change in or withdrawal of such rating could have an adverse effect on the market price or marketabi I ity of the Series 20 13 Bonds. 57023390.6 49 97 FINANCIAL ADVISOR The Commission has retained Fieldman, Rolapp & Associates, Irvine, California, as Financial Advisor in connection with the authorization and delivery of the Series 2013 Bonds. The Financial Advisor is not obligated to undertake, and has not undertaken to make, an independent verification or assume responsibility for the accuracy, completeness or fairness of the information contained in this Official Statement. The Financial Advisor is an independent financial advisory firm and is not engaged in the business of underwriting, trading or distributing municipal securities or other public securities. Compensation paid to the Financial Advisor is contingent upon the successful issuance of the Series 2013 Bonds. UNDERWRITING Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated and Goldman, Sachs & Co., as co-representatives of themselves, and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC (collectively, the "Underwriters"), as the Underwriters of the Series 2013 Bonds, have agreed to purchase the Series 20 13A Bonds and the Series 2013B Bonds from the Commission at an underwriting discount of$ and $ _____ , respectively, from the initial public offering prices therefor set forth on inside cover of this Official Statement. The Underwriters will be obligated to purchase all of the Series 2013 Bonds if any such obligations are purchased. The obligation of the Underwriters to purchase either series of the Series 2013 Bonds from the Commission is subject to certain customary conditions to delivery, including the sale and purchase of the other series of the Series 2013 Bonds to and by the Underwriters. The Series 2013 Bonds may be offered and sold to certain dealers and others at prices lower than such public offering prices, and such public offering prices may be changed, from time to time, by the Underwriters. The Underwriters and their respective affiliates are full service financial institutions engaged in various activities, which may include sales and trading, commercial and investment banking, advisory, investment management, investment research, principal investment, hedging, market making, brokerage and other financial and non-financial activities and services. Certain of the Underwriters and their respective affiliates have provided, and may in the future provide, a variety of these services to the Commission and to persons and entities with relationships with the Commission, for which they received or will receive customary fees and expenses. In the ordinary course of their various business activities, the Underwriters and their respective affiliates, officers, directors and employees may purchase, sell or hold a broad array of investments and actively trade securities, derivatives, loans, commodities, currencies, credit default swaps and other financial instruments for their own account and for the accounts of their customers, and such investment and trading activities may involve or relate to assets, securities and/or instruments of the Commission (directly, as collateral securing other obi igations or otherwise) and/or persons and entities with relationships with the Commission. The Underwriters and their respective affiliates may also communicate independent investment recommendations, market color or trading ideas and/or publish or express independent research views in respect of such assets, securities or instruments and may at any time hold, or recommend to clients that they should acquire, long and/or short positions in such assets, securities and instruments.

The Commission and the Trustee cannot and do not give any assurances that DTC, Direct Participants (as defined below) or Indirect Participants (as defined below) will distribute to the Beneficial Owners (a) payments of interest, principal or premium, if any, with respect to the Series 2013 Bonds, (b) certificates representing ownership interest in or other confirmation of ownership interest in the Series 2013 Bonds, or (c) redemption or other notices sent to DTC or Cede & Co., its nominee, as the registered owner of the Series 2013 Bonds, or that they will do so on a timely basis, or that DTC, Direct Participants or Indirect Par1icipants will act in the manner described in this Appendix E. The Commission and the Trustee are not responsible or liable for the failure of DTC or any DTC Direct or Indirect Participant to make any payment or give any notice to a Beneficial Owner with respect to the Series 2013 Bonds or an error or delay relating thereto. 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's Direct and Indirect Participants are on file with DTC. DTC will act as securities depository for the Series 2013 Bonds. The Series 2013 Bonds will be issued as fully-registered 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 Series 2013 Bonds, 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 17 A 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 I 00 countries) that DTC's participants ("Direct Participants") deposit with 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 Par1icipants 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 Standard & Poor's rating of AA+. The DTC Rules applicable to Direct and Indirect Participants are on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission. More information about DTC can be found at www.dtcc.com. The information on such website is not incorporated herein by reference. Purchases of Series 2013 Bonds under the DTC book-entry system must be made by or through Direct Participants, which will receive a credit for the Series 2013 Bonds on DTC's records. The ownership interest of each actual purchaser of each Series 2013 Bond ("Beneficial Owner") is in turn to 57023390.6 G-1 106 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 Series 2013 Bonds are to be accomplished by entries made on the books of Direct and Indirect Par1icipants acting on behalf of Beneficial Owners. Beneficial Owners will not receive certificates representing their ownership interests in the Series 2013 Bonds, except in the event that use of the book-entry system for the Series 2013 Bonds is discontinued. To facilitate subsequent transfers, all Series 2013 Bonds deposited by Direct Participants with DTC are registered in the name of DTC's par1nership nominee, Cede & Co., or such other name as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. The deposit of the Series 2013 Bonds 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 Series 2013 Bonds; DTC's records reflect only the identity of the Direct Participants to whose accounts such Series 2013 Bonds 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 the Series 2013 Bonds may wish to take certain steps to augment the transmission to them of notices of significant events with respect to the Series 2013 Bonds, such as redemptions, tenders, defaults, and proposed amendments to the Series 2013 Bond documents. For example, Beneficial Owners of the Series 2013 Bonds may wish to ascertain that the nominee holding the Series 2013 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 registrar and request that copies of notices be provided directly to them. Redemption notices (if applicable) shall be sent to DTC. If less than all of the Series 2013 Bonds 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 Series 2013 Bonds unless authorized by a Direct Participant in accordance with DTC's MMI Procedures. Under its usual procedures, DTC mails an Omnibus Proxy to the Commission 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 Series 2013 Bonds are credited on the record date (identified in a listing attached to the Omnibus Proxy). Payments of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Series 2013 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 Commission or the Trustee, on the payable date in accordance with their respective holdings shown on DTC's records. Payments by Direct or Indirect 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 w_ill be the responsibility of such Participant and not of DTC, the Trustee, or the Commission, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time to time. Payment of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Series 2013 Bonds to Cede & Co. (or such other nominee as may be requested by an authorized representative ofDTC) is the responsibility of the Commission or the Trustee, disbursement of 57023390.6 G-2 107 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. DTC may discontinue providing its services as securities depository with respect to the Series 2013 Bonds at any time by giving notice to the Trustee and the Commission. Under certain circumstances, in the event that a successor depository is not obtained, Series 2013 Bond certificates are required to be printed and delivered. The Commission may decide to discontinue use of the system of book-entry transfers for the Series 2013 Bonds through DTC (or a successor securities depository). ln that event, Series 2013 Bond certificates will be printed and delivered as provided in the Indenture. In addition, the following provisions would apply: the principal or redemption price of the Series 2013 Bonds will be payable upon presentation thereof, at the principal corporate trust office of the Trustee, in San Francisco, California; interest on the Series 2013 Bonds will be payable by check mailed on each interest payment date to the registered owners thereof as shown on the registration books of the Trustee as of the close of business on the 151h day of the calendar month immediately preceding the applicable interest payment date (the "record date"), except that in the case of an owner of $1,000,000 or more in aggregate principal amount of Series 2013 Bonds, upon written request of such owner to the Trustee received at least I 0 days prior to the record date for the payment of interest, specifying the account or accounts to which such payment shall be made (which request shall remain in effect until revoked by such owner in a subsequent writing delivered to the Trustee), such interest shall be paid in immediately available funds by wire transfer to such account or accounts on the following interest payment date; and the Series 2013 Bonds will be transferable and exchangeable on the tenns and conditions provided in the Indenture. The information in this Appendix F concerning DTC and DTC's book-entry system has been obtained from sources the Commission believes to be reliable, but the Commission takes no responsibility for the accuracy thereof. 57023390.6 G-3 108 60L I-H NOINidO '13:SNflO::> UNOH .'10 Wl!O.'I HXIUN3ddV MASTER INDENTURE between RIVERSIDE COUNTY TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION and ATTACHMENT 3 OH&S Draft 3/31/2013 THE BANK OF NEW YORK MELLON TRUST COMPANY, N.A., as Trustee OHS USA:260935709 .9 Dated as of June I, 2013 Riverside County Transportation Commission Toll Revenue Bonds 110 Section 1.01 Section 2.01 Section 2.02 Section 2.03 Section 2.04 Section 2.05 Section 2.06 Section 2.07 Section 2.08 Section 2.09 Section 2.10 Section 2.11 TABLE OF CONTENTS ARTICLE I DEFINITIONS Page Definitions ........................................................................................................ 6 ARTICLE II THE OBLIGATIONS Authorization and Purposes ........................................................................... 30 General Terms of Obligations ........................................................................ 30 Execution ....................................................................................................... 31 Certificate of Authentication .......................................................................... 31 F onns of Obligations ..................................................................................... 31 Issuance, Sale and Delivery of Obligations;

(ii) if 20 percent or more of the principal of a Series of Obligations is not due until the final stated maturity of that Series of Obligations, the principal of and interest on such Obligations may be treated as if such principal and interest were due based upon a level amortization of such principal and interest over the term of that Series of Obligations; (iii) if the Obligation is supported by a line of credit or a letter of credit, principal may be treated as if it were due based upon the level amortization of such principal over the maximum term of repayment of borrowings under such line of credit or letter of credit; (iv) if an Outstanding Obligation bears a variable interest rate, the interest rate shall be assumed to be the greater of (a) the daily average interest rate during the 12 months ending with the month preceding the date of calculation, or during such shorter period that the Obligation has been Outstanding, or (b) the rate of interest on that Obligation on the date of calculation; (v) if Obligations proposed to be issued will be variable interest rate obligations, the interest on which is excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes, then such obligations shall be assumed to bear interest at an interest rate equal to the average SIFMA Index during the three months preceding the month of calculation, or if SIFMA Index is no longer published, at an interest rate equal to 75% of the average One Month USD LIBOR Rate during that three month period, or if the One Month USD LIBOR Rate is not available for such period, another similar rate or index selected by the Commission; (vi) if Obligations proposed to be issued will be variable interest rate obligations the interest on which is included in gross income for federal income tax purposes, then such obligations shall be assumed to bear interest at an interest rate equal to the average One Month USD LIBOR Rate during the three months preceding the month of calculation, or if the One Month USD LIBOR Rate is not available for such period, another similar rate or index selected by the Commission; (vii) if Obligations proposed to be issued are part of a Commercial Paper Program, the principal of such Obligations may be treated as if such principal were due based upon a 30-year level amortization of principal from the date of calculation and the interest on such Obligations shall be calculated as if such Obligations were variable interest rate Obligations; (viii) if the variable interest on any Obligation plus the variable payments due to the Commission and fixed payments due from the Commission under a Qualified Swap Agreement or a Swap designated by the Commission are treated by the Commission as synthetic fixed rate debt, the variable interest rate Obligation may be treated as bearing such synthetic fixed rate for the duration of the synthetic fixed rate; (ix) if the fixed interest on any Obligation plus the fixed payments due to the Commission and variable payments due from the Commission under a Qualified Swap OHSUSA:260935709.9 7 121 Agreement or a Swap designated by the Commission are treated by the Commission as synthetic variable rate debt, the fixed interest rate Obligation may be treated as bearing such synthetic • variable rate for the duration of the synthetic variable rate and such synthetic variable rate shall be calculated using the principles of clauses (iv), (v) or (vi) hereof; (x) if any of the Obligations are Short-Term Put Obligations, the principal of such obligations may be treated as if such principal were due based upon a 30-year level amortization of principal from the date of calculation and the interest on such obligations may be calculated as if such obligations were variable interest rate Obligations; (xi) principal and interest payments on Obligations may be excluded to the extent such payments are to be paid from amounts then currently on deposit with the Trustee or another fiduciary in escrow specifically therefor and interest payments on any Obligations may be excluded to the extent that such interest payments are to be paid from capitalized interest held by the Trustee or another fiduciary specifically to pay such interest, including amounts held on deposit to pay capitalized interest on one or more Series of Obligations; (xii) if any of the Obligations are, or upon issuance will be, obligations for which the Commission is entitled to receive Subsidy Payments, as evidenced by an Opinion of Bond Counsel delivered with respect to such Obligations, the obligations may be treated as bearing an interest rate equal to the rate of interest borne or assumed to be borne, as applicable, by the obligations for the period of determination minus the Subsidy Payments to which the Commission is entitled for such period; (xiii) any payment obligation under an Obligation that was or is optional or • contingent (such as the obligation to make a termination payment under a Qualified Swap Agreement or a Swap), whether or not the option is exercised or the contingency occurs, and any payments that are not scheduled payments, may be excluded; (xiv) if any of the Obligations are, or upon issuance will be, obligations payable in a currency other than lawful currency of the United States of America, then such obligations shall be assumed to be payable in lawful currency of the United States at the rate payable by the Commission pursuant to the Commission's related currency swap or contract entered into in connection with such obligations or, in the absence of such swap or contract, at the rate determined by the Commission using a currency market conversion factor selected by the Commission; and (xv) if any of the Obligations are Subordinate Obligations in the form of or securing payment of a TIFIA Loan, Annual Debt Service on such TIFIA Loan shall include only annual TIFIA Mandatory Debt Service; provided that, for purposes of such calculation during the period prior to the Debt Service Payment Commencement Date (as defined in the TIFIA Loan Agreement), the TIFIA Mandatory Debt Service shall be deemed to be zero, and such TIFIA Loan shall be treated for purposes of all calculations of Annual Debt Service as Subordinate Obligations unless and until the occurrence of a Bankruptcy-Related Event, after which occurrence such TIFIA Loan shall be treated as Parity Obligations for such purposes.

The Borrower covenants that it shall at all times, commencing in the first full Borrower Fiscal Year following the Substantial Completion Date, establish, levy, maintain and collect tolls in connection with the Toll Road and establish such charges for use of the property constituting part of the Toll Road, including, without limitation and as permitted by law,· leasehold payments, concession payments, rents and other charges, as shall be sufficient, collectively, to produce Net Revenue in each Borrower Fiscal Year, in an amount at least equal to the greatest of(l), (2), or (3) below: (1) one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the Annual Debt Service in such Borrower Fiscal Year on all Outstanding Senior Obligations; or (2) one hundred thirty percent (130%) of the Annual Debt Service in such Borrower Fiscal Year on all Outstanding Senior Obligations and Permitted Second Lien Obligations; or (3) one hundred percent (100%) of the Annual Debt Service in such Borrower Fiscal Year on all Outstanding Obligations, plus the amounts required to be deposited into the Senior Lien Bond Reserve Fund, the Permitted Second Lien Obligations Reserve Fund, the Subordinate Obligations Reserve Fund, the Capital Expenditures Fund and the Repair and Rehabilitation Fund and any other Fund established by a Supplemental Indenture to be funded by Revenue. In making the calculations in (1), (2), and (3) above, the Borrower may take into consideration as a credit against Annual Debt Service any amounts received, or reasonably expected to be received, in the Borrower Fiscal Year from or as a result of any additional security irrevocably granted or pledged to the Bondholders by the Borrower with respect to the Obligations; [provided, that if the pledge is not for the benefit of all Obligations, the amounts expected to be received may only be taken into account when making the calculation for the affected Obligations.] • Beginning in the first full Borrower Fiscal Year following the commencement of toll collections by the Borrower for use of the Toll Road pursuant to the OCTA Cooperative Agreement, the Borrower covenants: (i) to compute projected Net Revenue for each Borrower Fiscal Year and the projected ratios described in clauses (1), (2) and (3) above (the greatest of • 44 14352874.7 299 " " " clause (1), (2) and (3) in any Borrower Fiscal Year shall be the "Coverage Ratio" for such Borrower Fiscal Year) within ten Business Days after the beginning of that Borrower Fiscal Year (such date of computation being hereinafter referred to as a "Coverage Calculation Date"); (ii) to furnish promptly to the Trustee a Certificate of the Borrower setting forth the results of such computations; and (iii) if any Coverage Ratio is less than the required Coverage Ratio to take such action as promptly as practicable after the Coverage Calculation Date (including, without limitation, increasing Toll Revenues through toll increases) as the Borrower projects is necessary to cause the projected Coverage Ratios for each Borrower Fiscal Year to equal or exceed the applicable Coverage Ratio for each such Borrower Fiscal Year. Within 60 days after the end of each Borrower Fiscal Year (beginning with the second Borrower Fiscal Year following the commencement oftoll collections by the Borrower for use of the Toll Road pursuant to the Cooperative Agreement), the Borrower will file with the Trustee a report setting forth the Net Revenue for such Borrower Fiscal Year. The failure of toll rates to yield an amount sufficient to achieve the Coverage Ratio for such Borrower Fiscal Year shall not be deemed to constitute an Event of Default so long as the Borrower complies with the requirements set forth in this Section 15( o ). If any such report indicates that the Net Revenue for such Borrower Fiscal Year were less than the amount required to satisfy the applicable Coverage Ratio, then as soon as practicable after delivering such report to the Trustee and the TIFIA Lender, the Borrower shall employ a Traffic Consultant to review and analyze the operations of the Toll Road and to submit to the Board, as soon as practicable (but not later than such date as will enable the Board to act upon it within 180 days after the end of the Borrower Fiscal Year in question), a written report which shall include the actions that the Traffic Consultant recommends should be taken by the Borrower with respect to (i) revising the toll rates, (ii) altering its methods of operation, or (iii) taking other action projected to produce the amount so required in the following twelve month period, (or, if less, the maximum amount deemed feasible by the Traffic Consultant and that the Traffic Consultant estimates will not adversely affect the amount of Net Revenue). Promptly upon its receipt of such written report (and, in any case, within 180 days after the end of the Borrower Fiscal Year in question), after giving due consideration thereto, the Borrower will revise the toll rates, as permitted by law, alter its methods of operation, or take such other action as it deems appropriate. Such revisions, alterations, or actions need not comply with the recommendations of the Traffic Consultant so long as Net Revenue projected by the Traffic Consultant to be produced by the revisions, alterations or actions then taken by the Borrower are at least equal to the amount required hereinabove. The Borrower further covenants that such toll rates for traffic using the Toll Road will be established and maintained in a reasonable way to cover all traffic (other than vehicles used for maintaining the Toll Road; police, fire, and other public emergency vehicles; buses owned and operated by any public agency; vehicles with multiple passengers or which allow for a limited numbers of passengers, including motorcycles, according to policies determined by the State or the Borrower; electric, hybrid-electric and other vehicles that meet emission-reduction policies determined by the State or the Borrower; vehicles which are otherwise exempt from payment of tolls under State or federal law; and any vehicles during a public emergency declared by the Borrower) consistent with the requirements hereof, but with such classifications as the Borrower may deem appropriate . 14352874_7 45 300 Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, nothing in this Section 15( o) shall be deemed to require the Borrower to collect tolls and other fees with respect to which the Borrower • has determined, based upon a report from a Traffic Consultant, that the costs of collection would exceed the amount of tolls and other fees expected to be collected; and provided further that nothing contained in this Section 15( o) shall prevent the Borrower from temporarily reducing or eliminating tolls and other fees in connection with programs which it intends to use to increase Net Revenue. (p) No Prohibited Liens. The Borrower will not create, incur, assume or permit to exist any Lien on the Toll Road or on any property or asset now owned or hereafter acquired by the Borrower, except Permitted Liens or assign or sell any income or revenue including accounts receivable or rights in respect of any thereof.

On the last Business Day of each January (or on the next Business Day of such date is not Business Day) on and after the TIFIA Loan Prepayment Commencement Date, the Borrower shall cause the Trustee to transfer amounts on deposit in the Subordinate Obligations Prepayment Account to the TIFIA Lender to prepay the TIFIA Loan. (r) Copies of Additional Project Contracts. The Borrower shall provide a copy of each Additional Project Contract to the TIFIA Lender promptly after execution thereof. (s) Hedging. (i) To protect against fluctuations in interest rates, the Borrower shall make arrangements for a Qualified Hedge to be in place and maintained at all times with respect to the [Senior Obligations] during any period in which the Senior Obligations bear interest at a Variable Interest Rate. The Borrower, at all times when the TIFIA Loan is outstanding, shall have in full force and effect Qualified Hedges with an aggregate notional amount of not less than 98% of the aggregate principal amount of the Variable Interest Rate Obligations projected by the Borrower from time-to-time to be outstanding during the term of the TIFIA Loan and (x) at least 98% of the notional amount of such Qualified Hedges shall be subject to a Qualified Hedge with a stated maturity or termination date not earlier than the final maturity date of the TIFIA Loan and (y) the notional amount of the balance of such Qualified Hedges shall be subject to a Qualified Hedge with a stated maturity or termination date of at least one year. (ii) Each Qualified Hedge shall provide for a fixed interest rate or interest rate • cap resulting in Fixed Amortization Payment amounts payable by the Borrower which, when taken together with the Bank Lending Margin, shall be a rate which is less than or equal to the Loan Underwriting Rate. The Borrower's obligations to pay (a) any payments required in connection with the acquisition of a Qualified Hedge to assure that the fixed interest rate to be paid by the Borrower or interest rate cap provided to the Borrower under the Qualified Hedge, together with the Bank Lending Margin, shall be at or below the Loan Underwriting Rate, (b) Hedging Obligations and (c) Hedging Termination Obligations shall be from the sources and • 14352874.7 46 301 " " " in the priority specified in the Master Indenture. Each Qualified Hedge shall be secured and documented on terms and conditions substantially similar to the terms and conditions of the Initial Qualified Hedge unless otherwise approved by the TIFIA Lender (the "Hedge Documents"). The Borrower shall ensure that, as of the day following the termination date of any Qualified Hedge, either (a) a Subsequent Qualified Hedge (as defined below) is in full force and effect to the extent the [Senior Obligations] bear interest at a Variable Interest Rate or (b) the Variable Interest Rate Obligations have been converted to a fixed rate, in each case in accordance with this Agreement and the Senior Loan Agreement. (iii) Any Qualified Hedge entered into subsequent to the Initial Qualified Hedge (a "Subsequent Qualified Hedge") shall (1) commence no later than the termination date of the Qualified Hedge which is terminating and terminate no earlier than the date which is the first ( 1 51 ) anniversary of the effective date of such Subsequent Qualified Hedge or (2) commence no later than the termination date of the existing Qualified Hedge and terminate no earlier than the final maturity date of the Variable Interest Rate Obligations. (iv) No later than thirty days prior to the Borrower seeking any bids from any Qualified Hedge Provider for a Subsequent Qualified Hedge, the Borrower shall obtain the written consent of the TIFIA Lender to the effect that the process for selecting a Subsequent Qualified Hedge is a competitive process designed to obtain a fair market price and to avoid conflicts of interest. At the time the Subsequent Qualified Hedge is priced, the Borrower shall provide to the TIFIA Lender a certificate from a qualified third party acceptable to the TIFIA Lender to the effect that either the underlying LIBOR based fixed rate or the price of acquiring a Subsequent Qualified Hedge is a fair price based on the interest rate market at the time such Qualified Hedge is priced. (v) The Trustee shall be granted a security interest in each Qualified Hedge and payments due under each Qualified Hedge in order to secure the Borrower's obligations to the TIFIA Lender under this Agreement. The Hedge Documents shall provide that all payments due thereunder to the Borrower shall be made directly to the Trustee for deposit and disbursement in accordance with the Master Indenture. (vi) The Borrower shall neither terminate (other than Permitted Hedging Terminations), transfer nor consent to any transfer (other than to a Qualified Hedge Provider) of any existing Qualified Hedge without the TIFIA Lender's prior written consent as long as the Borrower is required to maintain a Qualified Hedge pursuant to this Agreement. 14352874.7 (vii) Hedge Deposits. (A) The Borrower shall be required to establish an account under the Master Indenture (the "Hedging Acquisition Account") and make payments to the Trustee (each a "Hedge Deposit") for deposit into the Hedging Acquisition Account (1) on the Calculation Date occurring twelve months prior to entering into each Subsequent Qualified Hedge with a remaining term of one year or less (a "Short Term Qualified Hedge") and (2) on each of the Calculation Dates occurring twelve and six months prior to entering into Subsequent Qualified 47 302 14352874.7 Hedge with a remaining term of greater than one year (a "Long Dated Qualified • Hedge"). (B) The Hedge Deposit for a Short Term Qualified Hedge shall be the mid-market amount estimated by the Borrower at that time to be necessary to purchase, at the scheduled termination of the then existing Qualified Hedge; a Subsequent Qualified Hedge obligating the Borrower to make payments based on a fixed rate of interest or interest rate cap equal to or less than the Loan Underwriting Rate minus the Bank Lending Margin for a period of one year or less having a notional amount equal to the principal amount of the Variable Interest Rate Obligations projected to be outstanding during the term of such Qualified Hedge. (C) The first Hedge Deposit for a Long Dated Qualified Hedge shall be the mid-market amount estimated by the Borrower at that time to be necessary to provide one-half of the funds needed to purchase, at the scheduled termination of the then existing Qualified Hedge, a Subsequent Qualified Hedge obligating the Borrower. to make payments based on a fixed rate of interest or interest rate cap equal to or less than the Loan Underwriting Rate minus the Bank Lending Margin for a period of greater than one ( 1) year having a notional amount equal to the principal amount of the Variable Interest Rate Obligations projected to be outstanding during the term of such Qualified Hedge.

BACKGROUND INFORMATION: At its March 2013 meeting, the Commission approved a Call for Rehabilitation Projects funded with federal STP funds in the amount of $13.8 million. The amount available is a set aside of 20 percent of Riverside County's FFY 2012/13 STP apportionment estimate provided by Caltrans. Criteria used for establishing allocation targets for each city and the county of Riverside were 2010 Census population and Federal Functional Classification System lane miles, which were weighted 50/50. STP funds are required to be matched at a minimum of 11 .4 7 percent. Staff received 21 projects by the April 1, 2013 deadline, which will be brought forward for action at the May Commission meeting. Additional projects submitted after the deadline will be brought forward for action at the June Commission meeting. Staff reviewed the project submittals for completeness and recommends the Commission approve the 21 projects totaling $12,142,000 in STP funds with the local agencies committing a total of approximately $4.3 million in local funds. The county of Riverside's allocation target amount will be adjusted once information is received from Caltrans regarding Functional Classification System lane miles for the city of Eastvale that will separate the lane miles currently included in the unincorporated area. The projects and funding amounts are listed in the attachment. The majority of the projects will be obligated in FFY 2013/14. Staff expects all of the projects to be delivered by the end of FFY 2014/15. Staff will report back to the Commission on the status of delayed projects, if any. Agenda Item 11 376 Upon approval, staff will program the projects in the Federal Transportation • Improvement Program (FTIP). Once the projects are in an approved FTIP, project sponsors will work with Caltrans District 8 Office of Local Assistance to complete the federal requirements for obligating the funds. Federal STP funds are administered through Caltrans; therefore there is no impact to the Commission's budget.

BACKGROUND INFORMATION: At its July 2012 meeting, the Commission approved and adopted the FY 2012/13 operating and capital funding allocations for Riverside County based on the FY 201 2/1 3 SRTP updates prepared by transit operators providing public transit services in the county. Since that time, Sunline was awarded an additional federal grant award from the FTA Section 5309 SGR program to provide funding for the replacement and new solar panel project. Subsequently, SCAQMD approved funding in the amount of $314,584 to Renova (the contractor) toward the project as part of the $53 million AB1318 Sentinel Power Plan Mitigation funding allocated to the Coachella Valley. This SCAQMD amount will be applied toward the required local matching funds to the FTA Section 5309 federal funds. To complete the required 20 percent match of $364,000, additional STA funds in the amount of $49,416 are being requested by Sunline. Total project cost is $1 ,820,000 and " will be fully funded with this additional STA requested match funds. Agenda Item 1 2 380 Financial Impact Since the FTA Section 5309 funds are directly allocated to Sunline, the only financial impact to the Commission is the allocation of STA funds. Sufficient STA Coachella Valley capital funding is included in the FY 2013/14 budget to cover the additional $49,416 to fully support Sunline's solar panel project.

BACKGROUND INFORMATION: In 1986, the Commission established itself as the Riverside County Service Authority for Freeway Emergencies (RC SAFE) after the enactment of SB 11 99 in 1985. The purpose of the formation of SAFEs in California was to provide call box services and, with excess funds, provide additional motorist aid services. Funding for RC SAFE is derived from a one dollar per vehicle registration fee on vehicles registered in Riverside County. The Commission, acting in its capacity as the RC SAFE, operated a system of call boxes along the freeways and highways in Riverside County since 1990. At its peak, the call box program had 1,149 call boxes in operation throughout Riverside County. With the advancement of technology and the proliferation of cellular phone owners over the past several years, the Commission took steps to reduce the number of call boxes in the Riverside County system. The reduction of call boxes over time to nearly half of its peak number led to significant cost savings, in addition to a more efficient operation of the call box program. Today, the Commission operates and maintains 597 call boxes . Agenda Item 13 383 The process by which a call box may be used by the motoring public is as follows: • • A motorist who becomes stranded on a Riverside County freeway locates a call box and picks up the receiver. • A trained call answering center operator addresses the motorist. • In communicating with the motorist, the operator is able to understand the problem the motorist is experiencing and determines a solution. • Solutions range from transferring the motorist to the California Highway Patrol (CHP) dispatch in a freeway emergency situation to helping to dispatch Freeway Service Patrol when on duty to assist in the repair of vehicles experiencing mechanical problems. In order to provide this seamless motorist aid service to thousands of motorists per year, the Commission contracts with a call box system maintenance services firm. Responsibilities of this firm include performing corrective maintenance, preventive maintenance, knockdown and vandalism repairs, temporary removals and reinstallations, and permanent removals. At the Commission's discretion, it can request special projects work be conducted. Corrective maintenance includes all repairs to the call box associated with electronics, transceivers, power supply (battery and solar panel), and the interface with the cellular system or anything that affects the proper function of the call box. Preventive maintenance is to be done at least two times per year on each box to • ensure call boxes are clean and operational. Knockdown and vandalism repairs occur on an as-needed basis. Similarly, temporary removals and reinstallations are conducted on an as-needed basis at staff's request. This type of work is typically only done when the call box will interfere with construction work being done or when construction work will cause the call box to be temporarily inoperable. Permanent removals are only done at the request of staff. In addition to call box maintenance, the maintenance firm is also responsible for administrative tasks, such as attending meetings, conducting field surveys, issuing correspondence, obtaining encroachment permits, maintaining inventory and supplies, and managing an electronic maintenance system. DISCUSSION: The Commission, in conjunction with San Bernardino Associated Governments (SANBAG), serving as the SAFE for San Bernardino County, led a joint procurement for call box system maintenance services. Consistent with past procurements and in consideration of the close working relationship the Commission and SANBAG have with the various commuter and motorist assistance programs in the Inland Empire region, it was determined it would be both efficient and advantageous for the agencies to jointly procure for call box system maintenance services. Agenda Item 1 3 384 • " " " Procurement Process Staff determined the weighted factor method of source selection to be the most appropriate for this procurement, as it allows the Commission to identify the most advantageous proposal with price and other factors considered. Non-price factors include elements such as experience, qualifications of firms and personnel, and the ability to respond to the requirements set forth under the terms of Request for Proposals (RFP) No. 13-45-102-00. RFP No. 13-45-102-00 was released by staff and advertised on March 4, 2013. Staff responded to all questions submitted by potential proposers prior to the March 14 clarification deadline. Two firms -CASE Systems, Inc. and Siemens Industry, Inc. -submitted proposals prior to the April 1 submittal deadline. Each of the firms submitted responsive and responsible proposals. The proposals were evaluated and scored, based upon the evaluation criteria set forth in the RFP, by an evaluation committee comprised of Commission, SANBAG, and Orange County Transportation Authority staff. Based on the evaluation committee's assessment of the written proposals and pursuant to the terms of the RFP, the evaluation committee recommends an agreement be awarded to CASE Systems, Inc., as this firm earned the highest total evaluation score under the evaluation criteria of the RFP . The recommended firm labor rates were competitively established and considered fair and reasonable based upon adequate price competition under the above referenced procurement process and staff evaluation of historical costs paid by the Commission for the same or similar services. Staff is confident the recommended firm will provide the Commission with quality service at the best possible price. Conclusion CASE Systems, Inc. has an extensive background in performing call box system maintenance services. The firm currently provides these services for SANBAG and the Commission and has been doing so since the firm's establishment in 2008, upon assuming the ex1st1ng contracts and assets of Comarco Wireless Technologies. CASE Systems, Inc. routinely provides excellent maintenance service. Its pricing was the most competitive of the two proposals submitted. By selecting CASE Systems, Inc. it will result in a total cost savings in an amount of $750,000 over the proposal by Siemens Industry, Inc. for the five-year period. For the first year of the new contract period with CASE Systems Inc., a cost savings of at least $20,000 will be realized due exclusively to the reduced per box rate offered by the firm. Additional cost savings built into the new contract Agenda Item 1 3 385 includes a higher threshold for call box knockdowns and removals as part of the • new lower cost structure. Future plans for call box reductions will result in further cost savings for the duration of this agreement. Based on the information provided, staff recommends awarding Agreement No. 13-45-102-00 to CASE Systems, Inc. in an amount not to exceed $1.25 million. All obligations incurred by the Commission under the terms of these awards are funded using local SAFE revenues and are subject to continued funding for motorist assistance programs in California.

BACKGROUND IN FORMAT/ON: In an effort to provide professional development opportun1t1es for local university students, staff applied for and was awarded a Caltrans Transportation Planning Grant. This is the third award for what has proven to be a successful program to recruit, train, and hire exceptional local talent. The project is entitled, Rising Stars in Transit -Internships for University Students, under the Transit Professional Development category of the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) 5313(b) program. The grant is for $50,000 with a local in-kind match of $10,000 comprised of staff supervision time. The internship program will include recruitment/selection of the student interns, comprehensive overview of specific transportation planning functions, lunch bag sessions with senior management, and an evaluation of the program. This provides an opportunity to expose local students to careers in transportation planning. The grant funds will be spent directly on intern compensation and training. The in-kind match will be calculated by the staff time needed to recruit, train, and mentor the students . Agenda Item �14 414 DISCUSSION: SCAG is the administering agency for the planning grant project and the Commission will enter into MOU No. 13-25-106-00 with SCAG for the grant funds. The program is scheduled to begin July 2013 and continue for a two-year period. Per the MOU scope of work, staff intends to hire interns for two departments, Multimodal Services and Procurement. The Multimodal Services intern will complete a variety of tasks, including but not limited to preparing regular operational status reports for Freeway Service Patrol, assisting with the annual Article 3 call for projects, performing various levels of quality control testing of the Inland Empire 511 system, monitoring the performance of call box call operators, and researching the implementation of the Caltrans park and ride assessment tool. The Procurement intern will perform tasks relating to data entry, running financial and procurement reports and conducting analyses, reconciling insurance and contract documents, researching Small Business Enterprise and Disadvantaged Business Enterprise events, reviewing and organizing documents, and responding to public inquiries. • Upon the completion of this two-year grant, the interns will have completed • important administrative tasks, developed valuable tools, and helped to conduct critical analyses of the various projects under the Commuter and Motorist Assistance and Procurement departments. This internship has the potential to lead the Commission to retain well-trained individuals should the recruitment opportunity anse.

AGENDA ITEM 15 " " " " RIVERSIDE COUNTY TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION DATE: April 22, 2013 TO: Budget and Implementation Committee FROM: Aaron Hake, Government Relations Manager THROUGH: John Standiford, Deputy Executive Director SUBJECT: State and Federal Legislative Update STAFF RECOMMENDATION: This item is for the Committee to: 1) Receive and file an update on state and federal legislation; 2) Adopt a Support position on AB 1 081 (Medina); and 3) Forward to the Commission for final action. BACKGROUND INFORMATION: State Update Committee hearings are underway on the thousands of bills introduced in February. As this occurs, amendments to bills are occurring at a faster clip, revealing more details about what Legislators intend to accomplish this year. A number of transportation related bills remain in "spot" form; staff is monitoring these bills and will bring relevant bills forward to adopt official positions at an appropriate time. Focus is also turning to the Governor's May Budget Revision, commonly called the "May Revise." At the time this staff report was written, the May Revise was not published, but will be available for analysis by the time the Commission meets at its May meeting and receives this staff report. On the California Environmental Quality Act (CEOA) reform front, the Commission sent an open letter to the Governor and Members of the Legislature declaring the Commission's prioritization of the issue and its membership in joining the CEQA Working Group. In the meantime, several cities in Riverside County adopted letters of support and resolutions, or also joined the CEOA Working Group -through coordination with the Commission's legislative staff. Executive Director Anne Mayer and legal counsel from Best Best & Krieger LLP spoke at the San Bernardino City/County Conference about the Commission's steps to engage in the CEOA debate. In May, Commission legislative staff will present to the Western Riverside " Council of Governments (WRCOG) Executive Committee on the issue. Staff also Agenda Item 1 5 436 worked with individual legislative offices representing Riverside County to explain • the experiences with CEOA and how legislative efforts can assist Commission projects and adopted policy principles. AB 1081 (Medina)-Economic Development: Goods Movement Infrastructure Staff Recommendation: Support Existing state law requires the Governor to annually submit a five-year infrastructure plan to the Legislature as a component of the Governor's proposed budget. This infrastructure plan is required to look at the needs of a variety of infrastructure sectors including education and transportation, as well as possibilities for funding these needs. Riverside's Assembly Member Jose Medina has introduced AB 1 081, which would require the Governor to specifically address goods movement-related infrastructure in the five-year plan. AB 1 081 also requires the Governor's plan to make recommendations to increase private sector participation in financing goods movement projects. The Commission's adopted state legislative platform promotes identifying permanent funding sources for goods movement projects. Additionally, in recent years the Commission actively participated in state and federal coalitions seeking to call attention to freight issues and its impacts on congestion, air quality, and quality of life in Southern California -as well as the significant economic benefits of the logistics industry to the Inland Empire. Given Riverside County's large identified • needs for grade separations and highway interchanges impacted by port traffic, AB 1 081 provides a vehicle to further elevate and focus state resources on this vital sector of our economy and transportation network. Federal Update Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century (MAP-21) contained a new provision requiring all contracts that are eligible for federal reimbursement to comply with "Buy America." Congress implemented Buy America requirements over the years in several pieces of legislation, including multi-year surface transportation bills and in the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) of 2009. Buy America provisions usually require public works projects use 1 00 percent American-made iron, steel, and manufactured products. Interpretations of the Buy America language in MAP-21 led to an interpretation by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and Federal Transit Administration (FT A) that utility relocations for federal-aid transportation projects must comply with Buy America. This places the Commission and transportation agencies across the country in the newfound position of being required to require utility companies to sign relocation agreements that commit the utility company to use 1 00 percent • American-made products in their work. Agenda Item 1 5 437 " " " Less than one year since the passage of MAP-21, many transportation agencies and utility companies are just beginning to encounter situations where the new Buy America policy is impacting projects. In the case of the Commission, the State Route 91 Corridor Improvement Project is in need to three utility relocations by AT&T, Southern California Edison, and The Gas Company. At the time this staff report was written, none of the three aforementioned companies will agree to sign relocation agreements with Buy America clauses. Utility companies the Commission deals with have not publicly stated their rationale in refusing to participate in Buy America. Without these agreements, relocations necessary for the project cannot occur. FHWA will not approve any projects that do not comply with Buy America. Therefore, the Commission is in a difficult situation. The Commission is not alone and engaged Caltrans, sister agencies in Southern California, and the Commission's lobbyists in Washington. Last week, staff held high-level meetings with FHWA and staff from congressional committees to push for a near-term solution to this unforeseen consequence of federal law. Staff will continue to elevate the awareness of the current stalemate and participate in developing a solution. Staff's goals are to avert potential project delays or cost increases while also placing the issue squarely in front of Washington decision- makers who can benefit from understanding the practical implications .of policy. Commissioners can expect to receive future updates on how this issue will be resolved . Agenda Item 1 5 438
