MTG. 07/26/2016 DISTRICT NO. 3 IMPROVEMENT AREA NO. 2 CITY ATTORNEY its
DEPT. ASD BOND ISSUE AND APPROVING THE FORM OF CITY MANAGER 1ft/ VARIOUS RELATED DOCUMENTS
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Adopt a Resolution of the City Council of the City of Carlsbad, acting as the Legislative Body of the
City of Carlsbad Community Facilities District No. 3, authorizing the issuance of its 2016 Special Tax
Refunding Bonds (Improvement Area 2) in a principal amount not to exceed fourteen million dollars
($14,000,000) and approving certain documents and taking certain other actions in connection
therewith.
ITEM EXPLANATION:
Periodically the city has issued tax exempt bonds through community facilities districts to finance
the construction of public infrastructure such as roadways, utilities, and other appurtenances in
certain areas of the city. Each bond issue was priced and sold at the most favorable interest rates
available at the time the bonds were taken to market. As interest rates rise and fall in the general
economy, they also rise and fall in the public finance market. When interest rates fall sufficiently
below the rates at which a bond issue was originally sold, it may be in the best interest of the city
and property owners to refinance the applicable bond issues through a refunding. A refunding is
similar to refinancing a home in that the old debt is paid off and the new loan, with its lower interest
rates and annual debt service payments, is carried forward (though the maturity date is not
extended).
Staff brought the refunding of Community Facilities District No. 3, Improvement Area 1 bonds
forward to Council for their consideration on June 28, 2016 (AB 22,338). These bonds are projected
to be priced and closed at the end of July/beginning of August.
The other debt issue which is a good candidate for refunding due to decreases in interest rates is
Community Facilities District No. 3, Improvement Area 2 (the "CFD"). This is being brought forward
now for consideration because additional work needed to be performed prior to refunding these
bonds.
An advance refunding is proposed for the CFD bonds as these bonds are not redeemable until
September 1, 2018. An advance refunding issues new bonds at lower interest rates than the current
bonds. The proceeds of the new issuance are placed in escrow and invested in US Treasuries until
the old bonds are callable (i.e. September 1, 2018 in the case of Improvement Area 2 bonds). Once
the old bonds are callable, the proceeds of the escrow plus the interest earned on the escrow are
used to pay off the old bonds. Even though bonds won't be called until 2018, property owners will

realize savings immediately as special taxes will be levied based on the new and lower debt service
of the refunding bonds.
Advanced refundings are less efficient than current refundings, all else being equal (e.g. interest
rates}. However, staff cannot anticipate what the market rates will be in two years when the current
CFD bonds are callable. As such, staff is recommending proceeding with an advance refunding now,
as opposed to waiting two years until bonds are callable, due to the historically low interest rates
across all portions of the yield curve. Based on an analysis by Fieldman Rola pp & Associates in July
2016, interest rates on the long end of the yield curve have only been lower 0.09 percent of the
time (i.e. rates have been higher 99.91 percent of the time}. These historically low interest rates
create savings that far exceed industry best practices for refunding thresholds.
The potential savings by refunding the CFD will be discussed in the Fiscal Impact Section below.
Actual savings will be dependent on market conditions when the refunding bonds are issued.
Council, acting as the legislative body of Community Facilities District No. 3 (the "CFD"}, is being
asked to authorize the issuance of the refunding bonds, approve the form of the refunding
documents, and allow staff to proceed with the sale of the refunding bonds. Some of the more
important documents Council is being asked to approve are as follows:
• Preliminary Official Statement -This is the document, prepared by Stradling Vacca Carlson
& Rauth, which will be provided to prospective buyers of the bonds to provide information
about Improvement Area No. 2 of the CFD, the refunding bonds, the city, and other
information necessary to make an informed investment decision.
• Bond Purchase Agreement -This agreement specifies the conditions under which the
underwriter, Stifel, will purchase the refunding bonds from the CFD.
• Continuing Disclosure Agreement -This agreement spells out the CFD's ongoing
responsibility to provide information to investors.
• Bond Indenture -This agreement identifies the ongoing responsibilities of the CFD and its
trustee, The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., with regard to holding and
distributing the proceeds of the refunding bonds.
• Escrow Agreement -This agreement provides instructions to the CFD's escrow agent, The
Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., with regard to holding and distributing the
proceeds of the refunding bonds.
According to the current refunding schedule, final bond pricing will occur in mid-August 2016, and
closing will occur in late August or early September 2016.
Staff recommends that Council adopt the attached resolution which will allow the sale of refunding
bonds by the CFD on behalf of Improvement Area 2. Adopting the resolution will also enable surplus
construction funds in Improvement Area 2 to be applied as a credit towards the refunding bonds.
Using the surplus construction funds towards the refunding decreases the amount of refunding

bonds necessary to refund the existing Improvement Area 2 bonds. These actions will save affected
property owners money each year over the life of the refunding bonds.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Pursuant to Government Code 53362.5 and 53363.2(e) of the Mello-Roos Community Facilities Act
of 1982, the issuance of refunding bonds is contingent on satisfaction of the following requirements:
• The total interest cost plus principal to maturity on the refunding bonds may not exceed the
total interest cost plus principal to maturity on the bonds being refunded (i.e. the total debt
service has to be less); and
• The number of years to maturity of all refunding bonds is not more than the number of years
to the last maturity of the bonds being refunded (i.e. the maturity date isn't increased).
An analysis performed by Fieldman Rolapp & Associates indicates the estimated total debt service
of the refunding bonds will be less than the existing debt service. The estimated net present value
("NPV") savings are projected to be approximately 18 percent of the bonds being refunded.
However, adverse movements in the. bond market could affect the city's ability to satisfy the first
requirement of the refunding: total debt service has to be less. As such, the resolution for Council's
consideration contains a clause which indicates the refunding bonds will not be issued unless a
minimum of 3 percent NPV savings can be achieved. Staff recommends approval of the attached
resolution.
Refunding the Community Facility District No. 3, Improvement Area 2 bonds will lower the annual
cost to prop'erty owners beginning in Fiscal Year 2016-17. The analysis performed by Stifel and
reviewed by Fieldman Rolapp & Associates projects annual savings for Improvement Area 2 of
approximately $225,000, which equates to NPV savings (aggregated annual savings in today's
dollars) of approximately $2.4 million, or approximately 18 percent, of the bonds being refunded.
The estimated per parcel savings shown in Table 1 are derived from an average interest rate of 3.17
percent. This is consistent with current market rates as of July 2016.
TABLE 1-Estimated Annual Savings Ranges for Property Owners1
District Minimum2 Maximum2 Average
CFO No. 3, Improvement Area 2 $5,479 $76,557 $14,510
1. The estimated numbers shown in the table are based on the following information/assumptions: A) The amounts shown in the table do not
include administrative costs of ~s11 for comparison purposes; B) Numbers have been rounded to the nearest whole dollar; and C) The FY 15-16
levy amounts were compared with the "typical estimated levy" in the proposed refunded district.
2. There is a large range in estimated savings because the parcels are not uniform in size and the tax is acreage based.
Actual savings will be dependent on market conditions when the refunding bonds are issued.
The city is not obligated in any manner to pay any costs related to the refunding bonds. Costs of
issuance are contingent on the sale of the refunding bonds and will be paid as part of the proceeds
from the sale of refunding bonds. The obligation for the repayment of debt service on the refunding
bonds rests solely with the property owners within the CFO.

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT:
Pursuant to Public Resources Code section 21065, this action does not constitute a "project" within
the meaning of CEQA in that it has no potential to cause either a direct physical change in the
environment, or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment, and
therefore does not require environmental review.

2016 SPECIAL TAX REFUNDING BONDS
(IMPROVEMENT AREA 2)
INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this Official Statement, which includes the front cover page, the inside front cover
page, the table of contents and the attached appendices ( collectively, the "Official Statement"), is to provide
certain information concerning the issuance of the $13,155,000* City of Carlsbad Community Facilities
District No. 3 2016 Special Tax Refunding Bonds (Improvement Area 2) (the "Bonds"). The proceeds of the
Bonds will be used: (i) to refund all of the City of Carlsbad Community Facilities District No. 3 2008 Special
Tax Bonds (Improvement Area 2) (the "2008 Bonds"), which are currently outstanding in the aggregate
principal amount of $12,890,000; (ii) to fund a deposit to the Reserve Account; and (iii) to pay the costs of
issuance of the Bonds. See the captions "THE REFUNDING PLAN," "ESTIMATED SOURCES AND USES
OF FUNDS" and "SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS-Reserve Account of the Special Tax
Fund."
This introduction is not a summary of this Official Statement. It is only a brief description of and
guide to, and is qualified by, more complete and detailed information contained in the entire Official
Statement, including the appendices, and the documents summarized or described in this Official Statement. A
full review should be made of the entire Official Statement. The sale and delivery of Bonds to potential
investors is made only by means of the entire Official Statement. All capitalized terms used in this Official
Statement and not defined have the meanings set forth in Appendix C.
The Bonds are authorized to be issued pursuant to the Mello-Roos Community Facilities Act of 1982,
as amended (Sections 53311 et seq. of the Government Code of the State of California) (the "Act"), and a
Bond Indenture dated as of August 1, 2016 (the "Indenture") by and between City of Carlsbad Community
Facilities District No. 3 (the "District") and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee
(the "Trustee").
The Bonds are secured under the Indenture by a pledge of and lien upon certain Net Taxes (as such
term is defined in this Official Statement) and all moneys in the Special Tax Fund ( other than the
Administrative Expenses Account) as described under the Indenture.
The District
Formation Proceedings. The District was formed by the City of Carlsbad (the "City") pursuant to the
Act.
The Act was enacted by the State of California (the "State") Legislature to provide an alternative
method of financing certain public capital facilities and services, especially in developing areas of the State.
Any local agency (as such term is defined in the Act) may establish a district to provide for and finance the
cost of eligible public facilities and services. Generally, the legislative body of the local agency that forms a
district acts on behalf of such district as its legislative body. Subject to approval by two-thirds of the votes cast
at an election and compliance with the other provisions of the Act, a legislative body of a local agency may
issue bonds for a district and may levy and collect a special tax within such district to repay such indebtedness.
* Preliminary, subject to change.
Item #23 - AB #22,370 July 26, 2016 Page 21 of 194
Pursuant to the Act, the City Council adopted the necessary resolutions stating its intent to establish
the District, to authorize the levy of Special Taxes (as such term is defined in this Official Statement) on
taxable property within the boundaries of the District, and to have the District incur bonded indebtedness.
Following public hearings conducted pursuant to the provisions of the Act, the City Council adopted
resolutions establishing the District and calling special elections to submit the authorization of the levy of the
Special Taxes and the incurring of bonded indebtedness to the qualified voters of the District, including: (i)
Resolution No. 2005-329 adopted by the City Council of the City on November 8, 2005, pursuant to which the
City formed the District and designated Improvement Area 2 (the "Resolution of Formation"); and
(ii) Ordinance No. NS-777 adopted by the legislative body of the District on November 15, 2005, providing for
the levying of the Special Taxes (the "Ordinance").
On November 8, 2005, at elections held pursuant to the Act, the landowners who comprised the
qualified voters of the District authorized the District to incur bonded indebtedness in an aggregate principal
amount not to exceed $21,000,000 and approved the rate and method of apportionment of the Special Taxes
(the "Rate and Method") for the District to pay the principal of and interest on the bonds of the District. See
the caption "THE BONDS-Authority for Issuance." The City Council of the City acts as the legislative body
of the District.
Description of the City, the District and Improvement Area 2. The City is located in northern San
Diego County (the "County") approximately 30 miles north of downtown San Diego. The City is bordered by
the Pacific Ocean to the west, the City of Oceanside to the north, the Cities of Vista and San Marcos to the
east, and the City of Encinitas to the south. See Appendix B for general information relating to the City. No
funds of the City are available for payment of the Bonds.
The District, which is located entirely within the City, consists of Improvement Area 1 and
Improvement Area 2. Special taxes or other moneys derived from Improvement Area I are not available for
payment of the Bonds.
Improvement Area 2 of the District consists of approximately 413 .91 gross acres, of which
approximately 13.92 acres have completed buildings, approximately 158.12 acres remain without completed
buildings and approximately 241.86 acres have been set aside for open space, public areas and roadways.
Currently, the only completed structures in Improvement Area 2 consist of an approximately 176,000 square
foot pharmaceutical company research and development facility. The property owners within Improvement
Area 2 are referred to in this Official Statement as the "Property Owners." See the caption "THE
IMPROVEMENT AREA-General Description." Improvement Area 2 is located north of Palomar Airport
Road and west of Melrose Drive.
Sources of Payment for the Bonds
Special Taxes. As used in this Official Statement, the term "Special Taxes" means the taxes
authorized to be levied by the District on property within Improvement Area 2 in accordance with the
Ordinance, the Resolution of Formation, the Act and the voter approval obtained at the November 8, 2005
election in Improvement Area 2, including any scheduled payments and any Prepayments ( as such term is
defined in the Indenture) of Special Taxes, and the net proceeds of the redemption or sale of property sold as a
result of foreclosure of the lien of the Special Taxes to the amount of said lien and penalties and interest on
such Special Taxes. See the caption "SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS-Special Taxes" and
Appendix A.
Under the Indenture, the District has pledged to repay the Bonds from: (i) the "Net Taxes," which
consist of the Special Taxes less amounts set aside to pay Administrative Expenses not to exceed $10,000 (the
"Administrative Expenses Cap"); and (ii) amounts in the Special Tax Fund ( other than the Administrative
Expenses Account) established under the Indenture.
2
Item #23 - AB #22,370 July 26, 2016 Page 22 of 194
The Net Taxes are the primary security for the repayment of the Bonds. In the event that the Special
Taxes are not paid when due, the only sources of funds available to pay the debt service on the Bonds are
amounts held by the Trustee in the Special Tax Fund, including amounts held in the Reserve Account. See the
caption "SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS-Reserve Account of the Special Tax Fund."
Foreclosure Proceedings. The District has covenanted for the benefit of the Owners of the Bonds
that it will (i) commence judicial foreclosure proceedings against parcels with delinquent Special Taxes in
excess of $10,000 by the October 1 following the close of each fiscal year of the District ending June 30 ( each,
a "Fiscal Year") in which such Special Taxes were due; (ii) commence judicial foreclosure proceedings
against all parcels with delinquent Special Taxes by the October 1 following the close of each Fiscal Year in
which it receives Special Taxes in an amount which is less than 95% of the total Special Tax levied and the
amount on deposit in the Reserve Account is at less than the Reserve Requirement; and (iii) diligently pursue
such foreclosure proceedings until the delinquent Special Taxes are paid. See the caption "SOURCES OF
PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS-Special Taxes-----cProceeds of Foreclosure Sales." There is no assurance that
the property within the District can be sold for the assessed values described in this Official Statement, or for a
price sufficient to pay the delinquent Special Taxes (plus related penalties and interest) in the event of a default
in payment of Special Taxes by the current or future landowners within the District. See the caption
"SPECIAL RISK FACTORS-Land Values."
Neither the faith and credit nor the taxing power of the City, the State or any political
subdivision of the State other than the District is pledged to the payment of the Bonds or any Parity
Bonds (as such term is defined in this Official Statement). Except for the Net Taxes, no other taxes are
pledged to the payment of the Bonds or any Parity Bonds. The Bonds and any Parity Bonds are neither
general or special obligations of the City nor general obligations of the District, but are limited
obligations of the District payable solely from certain amounts deposited by the District in the Special
Tax Fund ( exclusive of the Administrative Expenses Account), as more fully described in this Official
Statement.
No Issuance of Parity Bonds Except for Refunding. The District may, without the consent of the
Owners of the Bonds, issue additional indebtedness secured by the Net Taxes on a parity with the Bonds
("Parity Bonds"), but only for the purpose of refunding all or a portion of the Bonds or any Parity Bonds then
Outstanding. See the caption "SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS-Issuance of Parity Bonds for
Refunding."
Other taxes and/or special assessments with liens that are equal in priority to the continuing lien of the
Special Taxes have been levied as described under the captions "THE DISTRICT-Estimated Direct and
Overlapping Indebtedness" and "THE DISTRICT-Expected Tax Burden." Additional other taxes and/or
special assessments may also be levied in the future on the property within the District, which could adversely
affect the willingness of the Property Owners to pay the Special Taxes when due. See the caption "SPECIAL
RISK FACTORS-Parity Taxes and Special Assessments."
Description of the Bonds
The Bonds will be issued and delivered as fully registered Bonds, registered in the name of Cede &
Co., as nominee of The Depository Trust Company, New York, New York ("DTC"), and will be available to
actual purchasers of the Bonds (the "Beneficial Owners") in the integral multiples of $5,000, under the book-
entry system maintained by DTC, only through brokers and dealers who are or act through DTC Participants as
described in this Official Statement. Beneficial Owners will not be entitled to receive physical delivery of the
Bonds. In the event that the book-entry only system described in this Official Statement is no longer used with
respect to the Bonds, the Bonds will be registered and transferred in accordance with the Indenture. See
AppendixC.
3
Item #23 - AB #22,370 July 26, 2016 Page 23 of 194
Principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds is payable by the Trustee to DTC.
Disbursement of such payments to DTC Participants is the responsibility of DTC and disbursement of such
payments to the Beneficial Owners is the responsibility ofDTC Participants. In the event that the book-entry
only system is no longer used with respect to the Bonds, the Beneficial Owners will become the registered
owners of the Bonds and will be paid principal and interest by the Trustee, all as described in this Official
Statement. See Appendix F.
The Bonds are subject to optional redemption, mandatory sinking fund redemption and extraordinary
redemption from Special Tax Prepayments as described under the caption "THE BONDS-Redemption." For
a more complete description of the Bonds and the basic documentation pursuant to which they are being sold
and delivered, see the caption "THE BONDS" and Appendix C.
Tax Matters
In the opinion of Stradling Yocca Carlson & Rauth, a Professional Corporation, Newport Beach,
California ("Bond Counsel"), based on existing statutes, regulations, rulings and judicial decisions and
assuming compliance with certain covenants and requirements described in this Official Statement, interest
(and original issue discount) on the Bonds is excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes and
is not an item of tax preference for purposes of calculating the federal alternative minimum tax imposed on
individuals and corporations. It is the further opinion of Bond Counsel that interest (and original issue
discount) on the Bonds is exempt from State personal income tax. See the caption "TAX EXEMPTION."
Professionals Involved in the Offering
The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. will act as Trustee under the Indenture. NBS
("NBS") has acted as Special Tax Consultant to the District. Kitty Siino & Associates, Inc. (the "Appraiser"),
has undertaken an appraisal of unimproved parcels within Improvement Area 2 (the "Appraisal"). See
Appendix G. Stifel, Nicolaus & Company, Incorporated is the Underwriter of the Bonds. Certain proceedings
in connection with the issuance and delivery of the Bonds are subject to the approval of Stradling Y occa
Carlson & Rauth, a Professional Corporation, Newport Beach, California, as Bond Counsel and Disclosure
Counsel to the District. Fieldman, Rolapp & Associates is acting as Financial Advisor to the District in
connection with the Bonds. Certain legal matters will be passed on for the City and the District by the City
Attorney, for the Underwriter by Jones Hall, A Professional Law Corporation, San Francisco, California, and
for the Trustee by its counsel.
For information concerning the respects in which certain of the above-mentioned professionals,
advisors, counsel and agents may have a financial or other interest in the offering of the Bonds, see the caption
"FINANCIAL INTERESTS."
Continuing Disclosure
The District and certain Property Owners have agreed to provide, or cause to be provided, to the
Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board certain annual financial information and operating data and notice of
certain enumerated events. The District's covenants have been made in order to assist the Underwriter in
complying with the Securities and Exchange Commission's Rule 15c2-12 ("Rule 15c2-12"). See the caption
"CONTINUING DISCLOSURE" and Appendices D-1 and D-2 for a description of the specific nature of the
annual reports and notices of enumerated events to be filed by the District and such Property Owners.
Appraisal
An Appraisal of unimproved parcels within Improvement Area 2 dated July_, 2016 was prepared by
the Appraiser in connection with issuance of the Bonds. The purpose of the Appraisal was to ascertain the
market value of the fee simple estate of unimproved parcels in Improvement Area 2 as of July 1, 2016. See the

Item #23 - AB #22,370 July 26, 2016 Page 24 of 194
caption "THE IMPROVEMENT AREA-Appraised Property Value" and Appendix G. None of the City, the
District or the Underwriter makes any representation as to the accuracy or completeness of the Appraisal.
Bond Owners' Risks
Certain events could affect the timely repayment of the principal of and interest on the Bonds when
due. See the caption "SPECIAL RISK FACTORS" for a discussion of certain factors that should be
considered, in addition to other matters set forth in this Official Statement, in evaluating an investment in the
Bonds. The purchase of the Bonds involves significant investment risks, and the Bonds are not suitable
investments for many investors.

THE REFUNDING PLAN
General
The 2008 Bonds were issued pursuant to a Fiscal Agent Agreement, dated as of January 1, 2008 (the
"2008 Fiscal Agent Agreement"), by and between the City, for and on behalf of the District, and The Bank of
New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., formerly known as The Bank of New York Trust Company, N.A., as
fiscal agent (the "2008 Fiscal Agent"). The 2008 Bonds are subject to optional redemption on September 1,
2018. Concurrently with the issuance of the Bonds, the District will cause a portion of the proceeds of the sale
of the Bonds to be deposited into an escrow fund (the "Escrow Fund") established under the Escrow
Agreement (2008 Bonds), dated as of August 1, 2016 (the "Escrow Agreement"), by and between the District
and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as escrow bank and as 2008 Fiscal Agent (the
"Escrow Bank"), to be applied, together with moneys that are held in the funds and accounts established in
connection with the 2008 Bonds, to the payment and redemption of the 2008 Bonds. A portion of the amounts
in the Escrow Fund will be invested in Defeasance Securities (as such term is defined in the 2008 Fiscal Agent
Agreement). From the maturing principal of the Defeasance Securities and related investment income and any
uninvested moneys on deposit in the Escrow Fund, the Escrow Bank will pay: (i) the principal of and interest
on the 2008 Bonds maturing on September 1, 2018; and (ii) the principal of the 2008 Bonds maturing after
September 1, 2018, plus interest accrued to such date, without premium.
Sufficiency of the deposits in the Escrow Fund for such purposes will be verified by Grant Thornton
LLP, Minneapolis Minnesota (the "Verification Agent"). Assuming the accuracy of such computations, as a
result of the deposit and application of funds as provided in the Escrow Agreement, the 2008 Bonds will be
defeased pursuant to the provisions of the 2008 Fiscal Agent Agreement as of the date of issuance of the
Bonds.

Item #23 - AB #22,370 July 26, 2016 Page 25 of 194
The amounts held by the Escrow Bank in the Escrow Fund are pledged solely to the payment of the
2008 Bonds and will not be available for the payments on the Bonds.
Verification of Mathematical Computations
Upon the issuance of the Bonds, the Verification Agent will deliver a report on the mathematical
accuracy of certain computations based upon certain information and assertions provided to it by the
Underwriter relating to: (a) the adequacy of the moneys deposited in the Escrow Fund to pay the redemption
price of the 2008 Bonds; and (b) the computations of yield of the Series Bonds which support Bond Counsel's
opinion that the interest on the Bonds is excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes.

THE BONDS
General Provisions
The Bonds will be dated their date of delivery and will bear interest at the rates per annum set forth on
the inside front cover page of this Official Statement, payable semiannually on each March 1 and September 1,
commencing on March 1, 2017 ( each, an "Interest Payment Date"), and will mature in the amounts and on
the dates set forth on the inside cover page of this Official Statement. The Bonds will be issued in fully
registered form in integral multiples of$5,000.
Interest will be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months. Interest
on any Bond will be payable from the Interest Payment Date next preceding the date of authentication of such
Bond, unless: (i) such date of authentication is an Interest Payment Date, in which event interest will be
payable from such date of authentication; (ii) the date of authentication is after a Record Date but prior to the
immediately succeeding Interest Payment Date, in which event interest will be payable from the Interest
Payment Date immediately succeeding the date of authentication; or (iii) the date of authentication is prior to
the close of business on the first Record Date, in which event interest will be payable from the dated date of
the Bonds; provided, however, that if at the time of authentication of a Bond, interest is in default, interest on
such Bond will be payable from the last Interest Payment Date to which the interest has been paid or made
available for payment or, if no interest has been paid or made available for payment on such Bond, interest on
6
Item #23 - AB #22,370 July 26, 2016 Page 26 of 194
such Bond will be payable from its dated date. The term "Record Date" is defined to mean the fifteenth day
of the month preceding an Interest Payment Date, regardless of whether such day is a Business Day.
Interest on any Bond will be paid to the person whose name appears as its owner in the registration
books held by the Trustee on the close of business on the Record Date. Interest will be paid by check of the
Trustee mailed by first class mail, postage prepaid, to the Owner at its address on the registration books.
Pursuant to a written request prior to the Record Date of an Owner of at least $1,000,000 in aggregate principal
amount of Bonds, payment will be made by wire transfer in immediately available funds to a designated
account in the United States.
Principal of the Bonds and any premium due upon redemption is payable upon presentation and
surrender of the Bonds at the principal corporate trust office of the Trustee in Los Angeles, California.
Book-Entry Only System
The Bonds are issued as fully registered bonds and will be registered in the name of Cede & Co., as
nominee of DTC. DTC will act as securities depository of the Bonds. Ownership interests in the Bonds may
be purchased in book-entry form only in integral multiples of $5,000. The Trustee will make payments due
with respect to the Bonds to DTC but assumes no responsibility for DTC's disbursement of funds to its
principals. See Appendix F.

Redemption
Optional Redemption. The Bonds maturing on or after September 1, 20_ may be redeemed, at the
option of the District, from any source of funds on September 1, 20 _ or any date thereafter, in whole, or in
part by lot, at a redemption price equal to the principal amount to be redeemed, together with accrued interest
to the date of redemption, without premium.
Mandatory Sinking Fund Redemption. The Bonds maturing on September 1, 20_ (the "Term
Bonds") will be called before maturity and redeemed, from the Sinking Fund Payments that have been
deposited into the Redemption Account, on September 1, 20_, and on each September 1 thereafter prior to
maturity, in accordance with the schedule of Sinking Fund Payments set forth below. The Term Bonds so
called for redemption will be selected by the Trustee by lot and will be redeemed at a redemption price for
each redeemed Term Bond equal to the principal amount thereof, plus accrued interest to the redemption date,
without premium, as follows:
TERM BONDS MATURING SEPTEMBER 1, 20_
Redemption Date
(September 1) Principal Amount
$
If, during the Fiscal Year immediately preceding one of the redemption dates specified above, the
District purchases Bonds, at least 45 days prior to the redemption date the District will notify the Trustee as to
the principal amount purchased and the amount of Bonds so purchased will be credited at the time of purchase,
to the extent of the full principal amount thereof, to reduce such upcoming Sinking Fund Payment for the
Bonds so purchased. All Bonds purchased pursuant to the foregoing sentence will be cancelled pursuant to the
Indenture.
In the event of a partial optional redemption or extraordinary redemption of the Bonds, each of the
remaining Sinking Fund Payments for such Bonds, as described above, will be reduced, as nearly as
practicable, on a pro rata basis, in integral multiples of $5,000, as directed by the District.
Extraordinary Redemption. The Bonds are subject to extraordinary redemption as a whole, or in part
by lot, on any Interest Payment Date, and will be redeemed by the Trustee, from amounts paid by the District
to the Trustee and designated by the District as a prepayment of Special Taxes for one or more parcels in
Improvement Area 2 made in accordance with the Rate and Method ("Prepayments") deposited to the
Redemption Account, plus amounts transferred from the Reserve Account, at the following redemption prices,
expressed as a percentage of the principal amount to be redeemed, together with accrued interest to the
redemption date:

Notice of Redemption. So long as the Bonds are held in book-entry form, notice of redemption will
be mailed by the Trustee to DTC and not to the Beneficial Owners of the Bonds under the DTC book-entry
only system. Neither the District nor the Trustee is responsible for notifying the Beneficial Owners, who are to
be notified in accordance with the procedures in effect for the DTC book-entry system. See Appendix F.
The Trustee shall give notice, in the name of the District, of the redemption of Bonds; provided,
however, that a notice of a redemption to be made from other than from Sinking Fund Payments will be
conditioned on there being on deposit on the redemption date sufficient money to pay the redemption price of
the Bonds to be redeemed. Such notice of redemption will: ( a) specify the CUSIP numbers (if any), the bond
numbers and the maturity date or dates of the Bonds selected for redemption, except that where all of the
Bonds are subject to redemption, or all of the Bonds of one maturity, are to be redeemed, the bond numbers of
such issue need not be specified; (b) state the date fixed for redemption and surrender of the Bonds to be
redeemed; ( c) state the redemption price; ( d) state the place or places where the Bonds are to be redeemed;
( e) in the case of Bonds to be redeemed only in part, state the portion of such Bond that is to be redeemed;
(f) state the date of issue of the Bonds as originally issued; (g) state the rate of interest borne by each Bond
being redeemed; and (h) state any other descriptive information needed to identify accurately the Bonds being
redeemed as specified by the Trustee. Such notice will further state that on the date fixed for redemption, there
will become due and payable on each Bond or portion thereof called for redemption, the principal thereof,
together with any premium, and interest accrued to the redemption date, and that from and after such date,
interest thereon will cease to accrue and be payable. At least 30 days but no more than 45 days prior to the
redemption date, the Trustee will mail a copy of such notice, by first class mail, postage prepaid, to the
respective Owners thereof at their addresses appearing on the Bond Register. The actual receipt by the Owner
of any Bond or the original purchaser of any Bond of notice of such redemption is not a condition precedent to
redemption, and neither the failure to receive nor any defect in such notice will affect the validity of the
proceedings for the redemption of such Bonds, or the cessation of interest on the redemption date. A
certificate by the Trustee that notice of such redemption has been given as provided in the Indenture will be
conclusive as against all parties, and the Owner will not be entitled to show that he or she failed to receive
notice of such redemption.
In addition to the foregoing notice, further notice will be given by the Trustee as set out below, but no
defect in said further notice nor any failure to give all or any portion of such further notice will in any manner
defeat the effectiveness of a call for redemption if notice thereof is given as above prescribed,. In addition to
providing any notice of redemption to the Owners, if the Bonds are held in book-entry form, each further
notice of redemption will be sent not later than the date that notice of redemption is mailed to the Owners by
registered or certified mail or overnight delivery service to the Depository and by electronic notice to the
Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board.
Upon the payment of the redemption price of any Bonds being redeemed, each check or other transfer
of funds issued for such purpose will to the extent practicable bear the CUSIP number (if any) identifying, by
issue and maturity, the Bonds being redeemed with the proceeds of such check or other transfer.
With respect to any notice of optional redemption or extraordinary redemption of Bonds, such notice
will state that such redemption will be conditional upon the receipt by the Trustee on or prior to the date fixed
for such redemption of moneys sufficient to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on such Bonds
to be redeemed and that, if such moneys have not been so received, said notice will be of no force and effect
and the Trustee will not be required to redeem such Bonds. In the event that such notice of redemption
contains such a condition and such moneys are not so received, the redemption will not be made, and the
9
Item #23 - AB #22,370 July 26, 2016 Page 29 of 194
Trustee will within a reasonable time thereafter give notice, in the manner in which the notice of redemption
was given, that such moneys were not so received.
Registration, Transfer and Exchange
Registration. The Trustee will keep sufficient books for the registration and transfer of the Bonds.
The ownership of the Bonds will be established by the Bond registration books held by the Trustee.
Transfer or Exchange. The registration of any Bond may, in accordance with its terms, be
transferred upon the Bond registration books by the person in whose name it is registered, in person or by his
or her duly authorized attorney, upon surrender of such Bond for cancellation at the Principal Office of the
Trustee, accompanied by delivery of a written instrument of transfer in a form acceptable to the Trustee and
duly executed by the Owner or his or her duly authorized attorney.
Bonds may be exchanged at the Principal Office of the Trustee for a like aggregate principal amount
of Bonds for other authorized denominations of the same maturity and issue. The Trustee will not collect from
the Owner any charge for any new Bond issued upon any exchange or transfer, but will require the Owner
requesting such exchange or transfer to pay any tax or other governmental charge required to be paid with
respect to such exchange or transfer. Whenever any Bonds are surrendered for registration of transfer or
exchange, the District will execute and the Trustee will authenticate and deliver a new Bond or Bonds, as
applicable, of the same issue and maturity, for a like aggregate principal amount; provided that the Trustee is
not required to register transfers or make exchanges of: (a) Bonds for a period of 15 days next preceding any
selection of the Bonds to be redeemed; or (b) any Bonds chosen for redemption.

The following table presents the annual debt service on the Bonds (including sinking fund
redemptions), assuming that there are no optional redemptions. See the caption "-Redemption."

SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS
Limited Obligations
Total
The Bonds are special, limited obligations of the District payable only from amounts pledged under
the Indenture and from no other sources.
The Net Taxes are the primary security for the repayment of the Bonds. Under the Indenture, the
District has pledged to repay the Bonds and any Parity Bonds from the Net Taxes (which are Special Taxes
less amounts set aside to pay Administrative Expenses not to exceed the Administrative Expenses Cap ( as such
term is defined in Appendix C)). Special Tax revenues include the proceeds of the taxes authorized to be
levied by the District on property within Improvement Area 2 in accordance with the Ordinance, the
Resolution of Formation, the Act and the voter approval obtained at the November 8, 2005 election in
Improvement Area 2, including any scheduled payments and any Prepayments of Special Taxes, and the net
proceeds of the redemption or sale of property sold as a result of foreclosure of the lien of the Special Taxes to
the amount of said lien and penalties and interest on such Special Taxes.
In the event that the Special Tax revenues are not received when due, the only sources of funds
available to pay the debt service on the Bonds and any Parity Bonds are amounts held by the Trustee in the
Special Tax Fund ( other than the Administrative Expenses Account), including amounts held in the Reserve
Account, for the exclusive benefit of the Owners of the Bonds and any Parity Bonds.
Neither the faith and credit nor the taxing power of the City, the State or any political
subdivision of the State other than the District is pledged to the payment of the Bonds or any Parity
Bonds. Except for the Net Taxes, no other taxes are pledged to the payment of the Bonds or any Parity
Bonds. The Bonds and any Parity Bonds are neither general or special obligations of the City nor
general obligations of the District, but are limited obligations of the District payable solely from certain
11
Item #23 - AB #22,370 July 26, 2016 Page 31 of 194
amounts deposited by the District in the Special Tax Fund ( exclusive of the Administrative Expenses
Account), as more fully described in this Official Statement.
Special Taxes
Authorization and Pledge. In accordance with the provisions of the Act, the City Council established
the District on November 8, 2005 for the purpose of financing the acquisition, construction and installation of
various public improvements required in connection with the proposed development within the District. At a
special election held on November 8, 2005, the owners of the property within Improvement Area 2 authorized
the District to incur indebtedness in an amount not to exceed $21 million for Improvement Area 2, and
approved the Rate and Method, which authorized the Special Tax to be levied to repay District indebtedness,
including the Bonds.
The District has covenanted in the Indenture that, beginning in Fiscal Year 2016-17 and continuing so
long as any Bonds or Parity Bonds issued under the Indenture are Outstanding, the legislative body of the
District will levy the Special Tax in an amount sufficient, together with other amounts on deposit in the
Special Tax Fund and available for such purpose, to pay: (i) the principal of and interest on the Bonds and any
Parity Bonds when due; (ii) the Administrative Expenses; and (iii) any amounts required to replenish the
Reserve Account of the Special Tax Fund to the Reserve Requirement. The District has further covenanted in
the Indenture that it will take no actions that would discontinue or cause the discontinuance of the Special Tax
levy or the District's authority to levy the Special Tax for so long as the Bonds and any Parity Bonds are
Outstanding. See the caption "-Special Taxes----Collection and Application of Special Taxes."
The Special Taxes levied in any fiscal year may not exceed the maximum rates authorized pursuant to
the Rate and Method. See Appendix A. There is no assurance that the Net Taxes will, in all circumstances, be
sufficient to pay the principal of and interest on the Bonds and any Parity Bonds when due. See the caption
"SPECIAL RISK FACTORS-Insufficiency of Special Taxes."
Rate and Method of Apportionment of Special Taxes. The Special Taxes will be levied in
accordance with the terms of the Rate and Method, the text of which is set forth in Appendix A. All
capitalized terms used in this section shall have the meaning set forth in Appendix A. This section provides
only a summary of the Rate and Method, and is qualified by more complete and detailed information contained
in the entire Rate and Method.
Assignment to Land Use Categories. Prior to the beginning of each Fiscal Year, all property
within Improvement Area 2 will be classified as either Taxable Property or Exempt Property. Taxable
Property will be further classified as Final Map Property or Developable Property.
Maximum Special Tax. The Annual Maximum Special Tax per Acre for Fiscal Year 2016-17
for all Taxable Property is $ __ . Under the Rate and Method, the Annual Maximum Special Tax per Acre
will no longer escalate above such amounts.
Method of Apportionment of the Special Tax. For each Fiscal Year, the CFD Administrator
will determine the Special Tax Requirement. After any property has been classified as Final Map Property, the
Special Tax will be levied on all Taxable Property within Improvement Area 2 as necessary to fund the Special
Tax Requirement as follows:
First: The Special Tax will be levied in equal percentages on each Assessor's Parcel of Taxable
Property, exclusive of Open Space Property and Public Property, up to 100% of the applicable Annual
Maximum Special Tax.
Second: If additional Special Taxes are needed after the first step, the Special Tax will be levied in
equal percentages on each remaining Assessor's Parcel of Taxable Property (i.e., Open Space Property and
12
Item #23 - AB #22,370 July 26, 2016 Page 32 of 194
Public Property which is not exempt from the Special Tax), up to 100% of the applicable Annual Maximum
Special Tax.
Exemptions. The CFD Administrator will classify the following as Exempt Property: (i)
Public Property; (ii) Open Space; and (iii) Assessor's Parcels with public or utility easements making
impractical their utilization for other than the purposes set forth in the easement; provided however, that no
such classification will reduce the sum of all Taxable Property to less than 150.57 Acres. Assessor's Parcels
that cannot be classified as Exempt Property because such classification would reduce the Acreage of all
Taxable Property to less than the amount stated above will be classified as Taxable Property and will be taxed.
The Annual Maximum Special Tax obligation for any property that would be classified as Public
Property upon its transfer or dedication to a public agency but which is classified as Taxable Property pursuant
to the preceding paragraph will be prepaid in full by the seller prior to the transfer/dedication of such property
to such public agency. Until the Annual Maximum Special Tax obligation for any such Public Property is
prepaid, the property will continue to be subject to the levy of the Special Tax as Taxable Property. If the use
of an Assessor's Parcel of previously classified Exempt Property changes so that such Assessor's Parcel is no
longer classified as Exempt Property, such Assessor's Parcel will cease to be classified as Exempt Property
and will be deemed to be Taxable Property.
Prepayment of Special Taxes. The Annual Maximum Special Tax for any Assessor's Parcel
may be prepaid and permanently satisfied as described in the Rate and Method, provided that a prepayment
may be made only if at the time of the prepayment there are no delinquent Special Taxes with respect to such
Assessor's Parcel and all other Assessor's Parcels which are under the same ownership and located within
Improvement Area 2. See Appendix A for a detailed description of the method of calculating Special Tax
prepayments.
Collection and Application of Special Taxes. The Special Taxes are levied and collected by the
Treasurer-Tax Collector of the County in the same manner and at the same time as ad valorem property taxes.
The District may, however, collect the Special Taxes at a different time or in a different manner if necessary to
meet its financial obligations.
The District has made certain covenants in the Indenture for the purpose of ensuring that the current
Maximum Special Tax rates and method of collection of the Special Taxes are not altered in a manner that
would impair the District's ability to collect sufficient Special Taxes to pay debt service on the Bonds, any
Parity Bonds and Administrative Expenses when due. In particular, the District has covenanted that it will not
initiate proceedings to reduce the maximum Special Tax rates for the District, unless, in connection therewith:
(i) the District receives a certificate from one or more Independent Financial Consultants which, when taken
together, certify that, on the basis of the parcels of land and improvements existing in the District as of the
July 1 preceding the reduction, the maximum amount of the Special Tax which may be levied on then-existing
Taxable Property (as such term is defined in the Rate and Method) in each Bond Year for any Bonds and
Parity Bonds Outstanding will equal at least 110% of the sum of the estimated Administrative Expenses and
gross debt service in each Bond Year on all Bonds and Parity Bonds to remain Outstanding after the reduction
is approved; (ii) the District finds that any reduction made under such conditions will not adversely affect the
interests of the Owners of the Bonds and Parity Bonds; and (iii) the District is not delinquent in the payment of
the principal of or interest on the Bonds or any Parity Bonds. For purposes of estimating Administrative
Expenses for the foregoing calculation, the Independent Financial Consultants will compute the Administrative
Expenses for the current Fiscal Year and escalate such amount by 2% in each subsequent Fiscal Year.
See the captions "SPECIAL RISK FACTORS-Proposition 218" and "SPECIAL RISK FACTORS-
Non-Cash Payments of Special Taxes."
Although the Special Taxes constitute liens on taxable parcels within the District, they do not
constitute a personal indebtedness of the owners of property within the District. Moreover, other liens for
13
Item #23 - AB #22,370 July 26, 2016 Page 33 of 194
taxes and assessments already exist on the property located within the District and others could come into
existence in the future in certain situations without the consent or knowledge of the City, the District or the
Property Owners. See the captions "SPECIAL RISK FACTORS-Parity Taxes and Special Assessments."
Under the terms of the Indenture, all Special Tax revenues received by the District are to be deposited
in the Special Tax Fund. Special Tax revenues deposited in the Special Tax Fund each Fiscal Year are to be
applied by the Trustee under the Indenture in the following order of priority: (i) to deposit an amount up to the
Administrative Expenses Cap in the Administrative Expense Fund to pay Administrative Expenses ( although a
greater amount may be deposited in the Administrative Expense Fund if necessary to collect Delinquent
Special Taxes); (ii) to pay the interest on, the principal of and redemption premium on the Bonds and any
Parity Bonds when due; (iii) to replenish the Reserve Account to the Reserve Requirement; (iv) to make any
required transfers to the Rebate Fund; (v) to pay Administrative Expenses of the District above the
Administrative Expenses Cap referenced in clause (i) above; and (vi) for any other lawful purpose of the
District. See Appendix C.

Item #23 - AB #22,370 July 26, 2016 Page 34 of 194
Taxes when due are included within the Net Taxes pledged to the payment of principal of and interest on the
Bonds under the Indenture.
Pursuant to Section 53356.1 of the Act, in the event of any delinquency in the payment of any Special
Tax or receipt by the District of Special Taxes in an amount which is less than the Special Tax levied, the City
Council, as the legislative body of the District, may order that Special Taxes be collected by a superior court
action to foreclose the lien within specified time limits. In such an action, the real property subject to the
unpaid amount may be sold at a judicial foreclosure sale. Under the Act, the commencement of judicial
foreclosure following the nonpayment of a Special Tax is not mandatory. However, the District has
covenanted for the benefit of the Owners of the Bonds and any Parity Bonds that it will: (i) commence judicial
foreclosure proceedings against parcels with delinquent Special Taxes in excess of $10,000 by the October 1
following the close of each Fiscal Year in which such Special Taxes were due; (ii) commence judicial
foreclosure proceedings against all parcels with delinquent Special Taxes by the October 1 following the close
of each Fiscal Year in which it receives Special Taxes in an amount which is less than 95% of the total Special
Tax levied and the amount on deposit in the Reserve Account is at less than the Reserve Requirement; and (iii)
diligently pursue such foreclosure proceedings until the delinquent Special Taxes are paid.
The District covenants that it will deposit the net proceeds of any foreclosure to the Special Tax Fund
and will apply such proceeds remaining after the payment of Administrative Expenses to make current
payments of principal of and interest on the Bonds and any Parity Bonds, to bring the amount on deposit in the
Reserve Account up to the Reserve Requirement and to pay any delinquent installments of principal or interest
due on the Bonds and any Parity Bonds.
If foreclosure is necessary and other funds (including amounts in the Reserve Account) have been
exhausted, debt service payments on the Bonds could be delayed until the foreclosure proceedings have ended
with the receipt of any foreclosure sale proceeds. Judicial foreclosure actions are subject to the normal delays
associated with court cases and may be further slowed by bankruptcy actions, involvement by agencies of the
federal government and other factors beyond the control of the City and the District. See the captions
"SPECIAL RISK FACTORS-Bankruptcy and Foreclosure" and "SPECIAL RISK FACTORS-
FDIC/Federal Government Interests in Properties."
Moreover, no assurances can be given that the real property that is subject to foreclosure and sale at a
judicial foreclosure sale will be sold or, if sold, that the proceeds of such sale will be sufficient to pay any
delinquent Special Tax installment. See the caption "SPECIAL RISK FACTORS-Land Values." Although
the Act authorizes the District to cause such an action to be commenced and diligently pursued to completion,
the Act does not impose on the District or the City any obligation to purchase or acquire any lot or parcel of
property sold at a foreclosure sale ifthere is no other purchaser at such sale. Moreover, if the District chooses
to purchase the property sold at foreclosure using a "credit bid" (where the District submits a bid crediting all
or part of the amount required to satisfy the judgment for the delinquent amount of the Special Tax), as
permitted under Section 53356.5 of the Act, the District must pay the amount of its credit bid into the
redemption fund established for the Bonds, but this payment may be made up to 24 months after the date of the
foreclosure sale. The Act provides that, in the case of a delinquency, the Special Tax will have the same lien
priority as is provided for ad valorem taxes. See the caption "SPECIAL RISK FACTORS-Parity Taxes and
Special Assessments."
Because the County has not elected to follow the procedures of the "Teeter Plan" (which is the
Alternative Method of Distribution of Tax Levies and Collections and of Tax Sale Proceeds, as provided for in
Section 4701 et seq. of the Revenue and Taxation Code of the State of California) with respect to special taxes,
collections of Special Taxes will reflect actual delinquencies.

Item #23 - AB #22,370 July 26, 2016 Page 35 of 194
Reserve Account of the Special Tax Fund
In order to secure further the payment of principal of and interest on the Bonds and any Parity Bonds,
the District will maintain in the Reserve Account an amount equal to the least of: (a) Maximum Annual Debt
Service (as such term is defmed in Appendix C) on the Bonds and any Parity Bonds; (b) 125% of average
Annual Debt Service (as such term is defined in Appendix C) on the then-Outstanding Bonds and any Parity
Bonds; or ( c) 10% of the initial outstanding principal amount of the Bonds and any Parity Bonds (the "Reserve
Requirement"). The initial Reserve Requirement is $ __ .
Moneys in the Reserve Account will be used solely for the purpose of paying the principal of,
including Sinking Fund Payments, and interest on the Bonds !illd any Parity Bonds when due in the event that
the moneys in the Interest Account and the Principal Account of the Special Tax Fund are insufficient or
moneys in the Redemption Account of the Special Tax Fund are insufficient to make a Sinking Fund Payment
when due, and for the purpose of making any required transfer to the Rebate Fund pursuant to the Indenture
upon written direction from the District. If the amounts in the Interest Account, the Principal Account or the
Redemption Account of the Special Tax Fund are insufficient to pay the principal of, including Sinking Fund
Payments, or interest on any Bonds and Parity Bonds when due, or amounts in the Special Tax Fund are
insufficient to make transfers to the Rebate Fund when required, the Trustee will withdraw from the Reserve
Account for deposit in the Interest Account, the Principal Account or the Redemption Account of the Special
Tax Fund or the Rebate Fund, as applicable, moneys necessary for such purposes.
Whenever moneys are withdrawn from the Reserve Account, after making the required transfers to the
Administrative Expenses Account, the Interest Account, the Principal Account or the Redemption Account of
the Special Tax Fund, the Trustee will transfer to the Reserve Account from available moneys in the Special
Tax Fund, or from any other legally available funds that the District elects to apply to such purpose, the
amount needed to restore the amount of such Reserve Account to the Reserve Requirement. Moneys in the
Special Tax Fund will be deemed available for transfer to the Reserve Account only if the Trustee determines
that such amounts will not be needed to make the deposits required to be made to the Administrative Expenses
Account, the Interest Account, the Principal Account or the Redemption Account of the Special Tax Fund on
or before the next September 1. If amounts in the Special Tax Fund, together with any other amounts
transferred to replenish the Reserve Account, are inadequate to restore the Reserve Account to the Reserve
Requirement, then the District will include the amount necessary fully to restore the Reserve Account to the
Reserve Requirement in the next annual Special Tax levy to the extent of the maximum permitted Special Tax
rates.
In connection with an optional redemption of Bonds or Parity Bonds, an extraordinary redemption of
Bonds or Parity Bonds from Prepayments or a partial defeasance of Bonds or Parity Bonds, amounts in the
Reserve Account may be applied to such redemption or partial defeasance so long as the amount on deposit in
the Reserve Account following such redemption or partial defeasance equals the Reserve Requirement. The
District will set forth in a Certificate of an Authorized Representative the amount in the Reserve Account to be
transferred to the Redemption Account on a redemption date or to be transferred to partially defease Bonds,
and the Trustee will make such transfer on the applicable redemption or defeasance date, subject to the
limitation in the preceding sentence.
To the extent that the Reserve Account is at the Reserve Requirement as of the first day of the final
Bond Year for the Bonds or an issue of Parity Bonds, amounts in the Reserve Account may be applied to pay
the principal of and interest due on the Bonds and Parity Bonds, as applicable, in the final Bond Year for such
issue. Moneys in the Reserve Account in excess of the Reserve Requirement that are not transferred in
accordance with the preceding provisions will be withdrawn from the Reserve Account on the Business Day
before each March 1 and September 1 and transferred to the Interest Account of the Special Tax Fund.
The Reserve Requirement may be satisfied in whole or part by the deposit of a reserve fund surety
policy or similar instrument therein.

Item #23 - AB #22,370 July 26, 2016 Page 36 of 194
No Issuance of Parity Bonds Except for Refunding
Subject to the limitations set forth in the Indenture, the District may, at any time after the issuance and
delivery of the Bonds, and without the consent of the Owners of the Bonds, issue Parity Bonds payable from
the Net Taxes and other amounts deposited in the Special Tax Fund (other than in the Administrative Expenses
Account therein) and secured by a lien and charge upon such amounts equal to the lien and charge securing the
Outstanding Bonds and any other Parity Bonds theretofore issued pursuant to the Indenture or under any
Supplemental Indenture; provided, however, that Parity Bonds may only be issued for the purpose of refunding
all or a portion of the Bonds or any Parity Bonds then Outstanding. See Appendix C under the caption
"DEFEASANCE AND PARITY BONDS-Conditions for the Issuance of Parity Bonds and Other Additional
Indebtedness" for the conditions that must be met in order for the District to issue Parity Bonds.
No Acceleration
The principal of and interest on the Bonds are not subject to acceleration under the Indenture in the
event of a default relating to the Bonds. See Appendix C under the caption "EVENTS OF DEFAULT-
Remedies of Owners" for a description of remedies that are available to the Bond Owner if the District defaults
under the Indenture.
THE IMPROVEMENT AREA
General Description
The District, which is located entirely within the City, consists of Improvement Area 1 and
Improvement Area 2. Special taxes or other moneys derived from the City or Improvement Area 1 are not
available for payment of the Bonds.
Improvement Area 2 of the District consists of approximately 413 .91 gross acres, of which
approximately 13.92 acres have completed buildings, approximately 158.12 acres remain without completed
buildings and approximately 241.86 acres have been set aside for open space, public areas and roadways.
Currently, the only completed structures in Improvement Area 2 consist of one parcel that contains an
approximately 176,000 square foot research and development facility. Improvement Area 2 is located north of
Palomar Airport Road and west of Melrose Drive. Development within Improvement Area 2 commenced in
2008. After initial development, construction largely stalled as a result of the economic downturn that began
in 2008. As described under the caption "-Property Ownership," development activity in Improvement Area
2 has recommenced.

RAF Pacifica Group. RAF Pacifica Group, which was established in 2015 by Adam Robinson, Steve
Leonard and Matt Burton, is a privately-held commercial real estate investment company that acquires, owns
and develops income-producing industrial and office properties. RAF Pacifica Group owns a total of
approximately 2.4 million square feet of industrial and office properties in California. Its principals
collectively have over 70 years of experience in owning and managing commercial real estate properties.
As of July 1, 2016: (i) SR22 Carlsbad Oaks Distribution, LLC ("SR22"), a California limited liability
company that is part of the RAF Pacifica Group family of companies, owns one parcel in Improvement Area 2,
Lot 13; (ii) RAF Group Lot 8 LLC, a California limited liability company that is part of the RAF Pacifica
Group family of companies, owns one parcel in Improvement Area 2, Lot 8; and (iii) RAF Pacifica Group -
Development Fund I, LLC, a California limited liability company that is part of the RAF Pacifica Group
family of companies is in escrow to purchase one parcel in Improvement Area 2, Lot 24, from Carlsbad Oaks
North Partners L.P.; the escrow is expected to close in or about September 2016. Such entities are collectively
responsible for approximately_% of the projected Fiscal Year 2016-17 Special Tax levy.
Lot 13 comprises approximately 13 .28 gross acres. SR22 is currently constructing an approximately
114,976 square foot corporate headquarters/manufacturing/distribution facility and an approximately 42,292
square foot corporate headquarters/manufacturing/distribution facility on Lot 13. Construction is expected to
be completed by December 2016. All entitlements and building permits have been received for these
improvements. The facilities contain a total of 19 suites, with suite sizes ranging from approximately 3,611
square feet to 36,408 square feet. SR 22 has entered into lease commitments with respect to approximately
34 % of the square footage, with initial occupancy expected in 2017.
Lot 8 comprises approximately 13 .20 gross acres. RAF Group Lot 8 LLC currently plans to develop
an approximately 168,000 square foot Class A industrial/distribution facility on Lot 8, with suites divisible to
60,000 square feet, by late 2017. RAF Group Lot 8 LLC is working with the City to secure a grading permit
for Lot 8 and currently expects to receive such permit in or about November 2016. All other entitlements have
been received with the exception of an occupancy permit that will be received upon the completion of
construction.
Kilroy Realty Finance Partnership LP sold an approximately 13 .20 gross acre parcel in Improvement
Area 2, Lot 8, to RAF Group Lot 8 LLC, an entity that is controlled by RAF Pacifica Group, in June 2016.
The District understands that RAF Pacifica Group proposes to construct a Class A 168,000 square foot

RAF Pacifica Group will enter into a Property Owner Disclosure Certificate in substantially the form
set forth in Appendix D-2. See the caption "CONTINUING DISCLOSURE-----cProperty Owners."
Estimated Direct and Overlapping Indebtedness
Numerous local agencies provide public services within Improvement Area 2's boundaries. However,
only the City, on behalf of the District, has issued bonds secured by a special tax levy on property, which
represented $12,890,000 of bonds in the 2015-16 tax year. Some of these local agencies have outstanding
general obligation bonds that are secured by taxes on the parcels within Improvement Area 2 and others have
authorized but unissued general obligation bonds that, if issued, will be secured by taxes levied on parcels
within Improvement Area 2. The approximate amount of the direct and overlapping debt secured by such
taxes and assessments on the parcels within Improvement Area 2 for Fiscal Year 2016-17 is shown in the table
23
Item #23 - AB #22,370 July 26, 2016 Page 43 of 194
below. At present, two different jurisdictions have issued general obligation debt, of which Improvement Area
2's allocable share is approximately $879,187. Increases in assessed valuations in Improvement Area 2
relative to assessed valuations in the overlapping jurisdiction can increase the ad valorem tax levy on
Improvement Area 2 parcels; similarly, a decrease in assessed valuations in Improvement Area 2 relative to
assessed valuations in the overlapping jurisdiction can decrease the ad valor em tax levy on Improvement Area
2 parcels.

The following is a summary of certain provisions of the Appraisal, which should be read in
conjunction with the full text of the Appraisal set forth in Appendix G. None of the City, the District or the
Underwriter makes any representation as to the accuracy or completeness of the Appraisal.
Appraisal. An Appraisal of unimproved parcels within Improvement Area 2 dated [July_], 2016
was prepared by the Appraiser in connection with issuance of the Bonds. The purpose of the Appraisal was to
ascertain the market value of the fee simple estate of unimproved parcels in Improvement Area 2 as of July 1,
2016.
Lot 14, which consists of a 176,000 square foot research and development facility that is owned by
Ionis Pharmaceuticals, was not evaluated in the Appraisal, and the Appraisal does not include an appraised
valuation for Lot 14. The Fiscal Year 2015-16 assessed valuation of Lot 14 was $57,180,000.
The Appraisal was based on certain assumptions and limiting conditions as described in detail
beginning on page i. See Appendix G.
Valuation Methods. The Appraisal determined the market value of the unimproved parcels within
Improvement Area 2 using the Sales Comparison Approach and (for Lots 1-3, 6, 15-16 and 20-25) a
Discounted Cash Flow Analysis, each of which are discussed below.
Under the Sales Comparison Approach, market value is estimated by comparing properties that are
similar to the subject which have recently been sold, are listed for sale or are under contract for sale. Sales
were compared on a per-square foot basis.
24
Item #23 - AB #22,370 July 26, 2016 Page 44 of 194
Under the Discounted Cash Flow Analysis, a bulk value is determined by taking into consideration the
fair market value of the lots, any remaining development costs, the marketing and carrying costs associated
with selling the lots and a discount factor which reflects a profit to the developer, the risk associated with the
project and takes into consideration the time value of money during the absorption period.
Value Estimate. Subject to the various conditions and assumptions set forth in the Appraisal, the
Appraiser estimated that, as of the July 1, 2016 date of value, the fee simple interest in the unimproved parcels
within Improvement Area 2 had the following value:

The projected assessed value net of exemptions of the land within Improvement Area 2 for Fiscal
Year 2016-17 (reflecting no change to Fiscal Year 2015-16 assessed values and not reflecting appraised values
for unimproved parcels as described in Appendix G) is $96,543,100, while the "Adjusted Valuation"
(reflecting appraised values for parcels with no structures on them as set forth in the Appraisal and the assessed
value for Lot 14, upon which a 176,000 square foot research and development facility has been constructed) is
$152,142,906. Dividing this projected assessed value by the $13,155,000* principal amount of the Bonds
results in an estimated assessed value-to-lien ratio of approximately 7.34* to 1, while dividing the Adjusted
Valuation by the $13,155,000* principal amount of the Bonds results in an estimated value-to-lien ratio of
approximately 11.57* to 1. When the $879,187 amount of additional overlapping debt (all general obligation
bond debt) that is payable from taxes levied on the property within the District (as set forth under the caption
"-Estimated Direct and Overlapping Indebtedness") is included in the calculation of the Adjusted Valuation,
the estimated Adjusted Valuation value-to-lien ratio equals approximately 10.84* to 1.
Table 5 below sets forth a summary of historical assessed values in Improvement Area 2. From 2008
to 2015, no assessed values in Improvement Area 2 were reduced without a change in ownership. Although
neither the City nor the District have any specific knowledge with respect thereto, it is likely that the foregoing
indicates that there were no Proposition 8 or other property tax appeals in Improvement Area 2. In the event of
a successful property tax appeal in the future, reduced assessed values would not affect the amount of Special
Taxes that can be levied under the Rate and Method but may alter the amount of overlapping general
obligation bond tax levies.

Development Status
The table below summarizes the development status of property within Improvement Area 2. Under
the Rate and Method, all property within Improvement Area 2 is categorized as Taxable Property that is
subject to the Special Taxes up to the Annual Maximum Special Tax amount except Open Space Property and
Public Property (primarily, dedicated easements). Property may be either "Final Map Property" (Taxable
Property that is included within a Final Subdivision Map that is approved by City Council prior to March 1 of
each Fiscal Year) or "Developable Property" (Taxable Property other than Final Map Property). Currently, all
Taxable Property within Improvement Area 2 is Final Map Property. As shown below, based on development
status as of March 1, 2016, approximately 91.91 % of the Special Taxes that are expected to be levied in Fiscal
Year 2016-17 will be levied on undeveloped Final Map Property.

Delinquency History
Under the provisions of the Act, the Special Taxes, from which funds necessary for the payment of
principal of, and interest on, the Bonds are derived, will be billed to the Property Owners on their regular
property tax bills. Such Special Tax installments are due and payable, and bear the same penalties and interest
for non-payment, as do regular property tax installments. Special Tax installment payments cannot generally
be made separately from property tax payments. Therefore, the unwillingness or inability of a property owner
to pay regular property tax bills as evidenced by property tax delinquencies may also indicate an unwillingness
or inability to make regular property tax payments and Special Tax installment payments in the future. See the
caption "SPECIAL RISK FACTORS-Special Tax Delinquencies."

(J) The amounts shown are higher than the projected Fiscal Year 2016-17 Special Tax levy of $575,312 because such amounts
were levied to pay the 2008 Bonds. The District expects to achieve debt service savings from the refunding of the 2008
Bonds and the issuance of the Bonds and, consequently, a reduction in the Special Tax that will be levied to pay the Bonds.
See the caption "THE REFUNDING PLAN."
Source: NBS.
See the caption "SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS-Special Taxes-Covenant to
Foreclose; Proceeds of Foreclosure Sales" for a discussion of the provisions that apply, and procedures that the
District is obligated to follow, in the event of delinquency in the payment of Special Tax installments.
SPECIAL RISK FACTORS
The following is a discussion of certain risk factors that should be considered, in addition to other
matters set forth in this Official Statement, in evaluating the investment quality of the Bonds. This discussion
does not purport to be comprehensive or definitive. In addition, the order in which the following information
is presented is not intended to reflect the relative importance of any such risks. The occurrence of one or more
events discussed below could adversely affect the value of the property in Improvement Area 2. Moreover, the
occurrence of one or more of the events discussed below could adversely affect the ability or willingness of
property owners in the District to pay their Special Taxes when due. Such a failure to pay Special Taxes could
result in the inability of the District to make full and punctual payments on the Bonds.
Concentration of Ownership
Improvement Area 2 has a significant concentration of ownership. As of July 1, 2016, there are only
sixteen parcels that are owned by fewer than ten Property Owners within Improvement Area 2, many of which
are related corporate entities. The Techbilt Companies family of entities are collectively for approximately
_% of the Special Tax levy. See the caption "THE IMPROVEMENT AREA-Property Ownership."
Failure of the Property Owners, or any successor, to pay the annual Special Taxes when due could result in a
default in payments of the principal of, and interest on, the Bonds, when due.
None of the Property Owners is obligated in any manner to continue to own, or to develop, any of
such property. The Special Taxes are not a personal obligation of the owners of the property on which such
Special Taxes are levied, and no assurances can be given that the current Property Owners within Improvement
Area 2 will be financially able to pay the Special Taxes levied on such property or that they will choose to pay
even if financially able to do so. See the caption "-Payment of the Special Tax is Not a Personal Obligation
of the Owners." Such risk is greater and its consequence more severe when ownership is concentrated and
may be expected to decrease when ownership is diversified.

Limited Obligations
The Bonds are revenue bonds, payable exclusively from Net Taxes and other funds provided in the
Indenture. The Bonds are not payable from the general funds or other moneys of the City or moneys derived
from Improvement Area 2 of the District. Except with respect to the Net Taxes from Improvement Area 2,
neither the credit nor the taxing power of the District or the City is pledged for the payment of the Bonds or the
interest on the Bonds, and, except as provided in the Indenture, no Owner of the Bonds may compel the
exercise of any taxing power by the District or the City or force the forfeiture of any City or District property.
The principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds are not a debt of the City or a legal or equitable
pledge, charge, lien or encumbrance upon any of the City's or the District's property or upon any of the City's
or the District's income, receipts or revenues, except the Net Taxes and other amounts pledged under the
Indenture. See the caption "SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS-Limited Obligations."
Insufficiency of Special Taxes
Based on current projections, the maximum Special Taxes that may be levied within Improvement
Area 2 exceed Maximum Annual Debt Service on the Bonds plus the Administrative Expenses Cap. See the
caption "SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS-Special Taxes-Debt Service Coverage from Net
Special Taxes." Notwithstanding the fact that the maximum Special Taxes that may be levied in Improvement
Area 2 exceed debt service on the Bonds, the Special Taxes collected could be inadequate to make timely
payment of debt service either because of nonpayment or, as described under the caption "SOURCES OF
PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS-Special Taxes-Rate and Method of Apportionment of Special Taxes,"
because property becomes exempt from taxation.
The Special Taxes will be billed to the properties within the District on the ad valorem property tax
bills sent to owners of such properties. The Act provides that such Special Tax installments are due and
payable, and bear the same penalties and interest for non-payment, as do ad valorem property tax installments.
Significant delinquencies in the payment of Special Tax installments, or delays in the prosecution of
foreclosure proceedings to collect such Special Taxes, could result in depletion of the Reserve Account and a
default in the payment of the Bonds. See the caption "SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS-
Special Taxes-Covenant to Foreclose; Proceeds of Foreclosure Sales" for a discussion of the provisions that
apply, and the procedures that the District has covenanted to follow, in the event of delinquencies in the
payment of Special Taxes. See the captions "-FDIC/Federal Government Interests in Properties" and "-
Bankruptcy and Foreclosure" for a discussion of the policy of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the
"FDIC") regarding the payment of special taxes and assessments and limitations on the District's ability to
foreclose on the lien of the Special Taxes in certain circumstances.
The annual levy of the Special Tax is subject to the maximum tax rates authorized. The levy cannot
be made at a higher rate even if the failure to do so means that the estimated proceeds of the levy and
collection of the Special Tax, together with other available funds, will not be sufficient to pay debt service on
the Bonds. Other funds that might be available include moneys and reserve fund surety policies or similar
instruments deposited in the Reserve Account, funds derived from the payment of penalties on delinquent
Special Taxes and funds derived from the tax sale or foreclosure and sale of parcels on which levies of the
Special Tax are delinquent.
The levy of the Special Tax will rarely, if ever, result in a uniform relationship between the value of
particular property and the amount of the levy of the Special Tax against such property. Thus, there will
rarely, if ever, be a uniform relationship between the value of such property and the proportionate share of debt
service on the Bonds, and certainly not a direct relationship.
Public Property, Open Space and Assessor's Parcels ( as such terms are defined in the Rate and
Method) with public or utility easements making impractical their utilization for other than the purposes set
forth in the easement are currently exempt from Special Taxes.
32
Item #23 - AB #22,370 July 26, 2016 Page 52 of 194
The Act provides that if any property within the District that is not otherwise exempt from the Special
Tax is acquired by a public entity through a negotiated transaction, or by gift or devise, the Special Taxes will
continue to be levied on and enforceable against the public entity that acquired the property. In addition, the
Act provides that if property that is subject to the Special Tax is acquired by a public entity through eminent
domain proceedings, the obligation to pay the Special Tax with respect to such property is to be treated as if it
were a special assessment and paid from the eminent domain award. The constitutionality and operative effect
of these provisions has not been tested in the courts. If for any reason property subject to the Special Tax
becomes exempt from taxation by reason of ownership by a nontaxable entity such as the federal government,
or another public agency that asserts immunity from the Special Tax, subject to the limitation of the maximum
Special Tax rates, the Special Taxes will be reallocated to the remaining properties within the District. This
would result in the owners of such properties paying a greater amount of the Special Tax and could have an
adverse effect on the timely payment of the Special Tax. Due to the problems associated with collecting taxes
from public agencies, if a substantial portion of land within the District were to become owned by public
agencies, collection of the Special Tax might become more difficult and could result in collections of the
Special Tax which might not be sufficient to pay principal of and interest on the Bonds when due, and a default
could occur with respect to the payment of such principal and interest.
Failure to Develop Properties
As of July 1, 2016, all but one parcel within Improvement Area 2 have no structures on them,
although all parcels are in finished condition and ready for vertical construction.
Unimproved or partially improved land is inherently less valuable than land with improvements on it,
especially if there are restrictions on development, and provides less security to the Owners should it be
necessary for the District to foreclose on the property due to the nonpayment of Special Taxes. Any delays in
developing unimproved property, or the decision not to construct improvements on such property, may affect
the willingness and ability of the owners of property within Improvement Area 2 to pay the Special Taxes
when due.
Land development is subject to comprehensive federal, State and local regulations. Approval is
required from various agencies in connection with the layout and design of developments, the nature and
extent of improvements, construction activity, land use, zoning, school and health requirements, as well as
numerous other matters. There is always the possibility that such approvals will not be obtained or, if
obtained, will not be obtained on a timely basis. Failure to obtain any such agency approval or to satisfy such
governmental requirements could adversely affect planned land development. In addition, there is a risk that
future governmental restrictions, including, but not limited to, governmental policies restricting or controlling
development within the District, will be enacted, and a risk that future voter approved land use initiatives could
add more restrictions and requirements on development within the District.
Moreover, there can be no assurance that the means and incentive to conduct land development
operations within the District will not be adversely affected by a deterioration of the real estate market and
economic conditions or future local, State and federal governmental policies relating to real estate
development, the income tax treatment of real property ownership or the national economy.
The Property Owners who own unimproved property are likely to need continued financing to
complete the development of the property within Improvement Area 2. No assurance can be given that the
required funding will be secured or that the proposed development will be partially or fully completed, and it is
possible that cost overruns will be incurred that will require additional funding beyond what the Property
Owners have projected, which may or may not be available.
Owners of the Bonds should assume that any event that significantly impacts the ability to complete
the development of the land in Improvement Area 2 would cause the property values within Improvement Area
33
Item #23 - AB #22,370 July 26, 2016 Page 53 of 194
2 to decrease substantially and could affect the willingness and ability of the Property Owners to pay the
Special Taxes when due.
Endangered Species
In recent years, there has been an increase in activity at the State and federal level related to the
possible listing of certain plant and animal species found in the Southern California area as endangered or
threatened species. An increase in the number of endangered or threatened species is expected to curtail
development in a number of areas. At present, none of the unimproved property within Improvement Area 2 is
known to be inhabited by any plant or animal species that any State or federal agency has listed or has
proposed for listing on the endangered or threatened species lists. The City is not aware of the current
existence of any endangered species within Improvement Area 2. Notwithstanding this fact, new species are
proposed to be added to the State and federal protected lists on a regular basis. Any action by the State or
federal government to protect species located on or adjacent to the property within Improvement Area 2 could
have an adverse effect on the ability of the owners of unimproved property to construct improvements on such
property. Any such action could reduce the likelihood of timely payment of the Special Taxes which might be
levied upon such property and would likely reduce the market value of such property and, therefore, the
potential revenues available at foreclosure sales for delinquent Special Tax installments. See the caption "-
Land Values."
Natural Disasters
The District, like all California communities, may be subject to unpredictable seismic activity,
drought, fires, high winds, landslides, floods or other natural disasters. Southern California is a seismically
active area. No known active faults underlie the District. The nearest fault to the City is the
Newport-Inglewood-Rose Canyon Fault, which runs offshore of the western edge of the city and is considered
active. Other faults in the region include the Coronado Bank, La Nacion, Elsinore, Agua Caliente, and San
Jacinto faults. Seismic activity represents a potential risk for damage to buildings, roads, bridges and property
within the District. In addition, land susceptible to seismic activity may be subject to liquefaction during the
occurrence of such event.
North San Diego County, in which the District is located, has previously experienced large scale
wildfires that resulted in the destruction of homes and businesses, most recently in 2007 and 2014; however,
no property in Improvement Area 2 has been damaged as the result of such wildfires.
In the event of a natural disaster, there may be significant damage to both property and infrastructure
in Improvement Area 2. As a result, a substantial portion of the Property Owners may be unable or unwilling
to pay the Special Taxes when due. In addition, the value of land in the District could be diminished in the
aftermath of such a natural disaster, reducing the resulting proceeds of foreclosure sales in the event of
delinquencies in the payment of the Special Taxes.
Hazardous Substances
The presence of hazardous substances on a parcel may result in a reduction in the value of a parcel. In
general, the owners and operators of a parcel may be required by law to remedy conditions of the parcel
relating to releases or threatened releases of hazardous substances. The Federal Comprehensive
Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, sometimes referred to as "CERCLA" or
the "Superfund Act," is the most well-known and widely applicable of these laws, but State laws with regard to
hazardous substances are also stringent and similar. Under many of these laws, the owner or operator is
obligated to remedy a hazardous substance condition of property whether or not the owner or operator had
anything to do with creating or handling the hazardous substance: The effect, therefore, should any of the
taxed parcels be affected by a hazardous substance, is to reduce the marketability and value of the parcel by the
34
Item #23 - AB #22,370 July 26, 2016 Page 54 of 194
costs of remedying the condition, because the purchaser, upon becoming owner, will become obligated to
remedy the condition just as is the seller.
The District has not independently verified, but is not aware, that any owner (or operator) of any of
the parcels within Improvement Area 2 has a liability related to hazardous substances with respect to any such
parcel. However, it is possible that such liabilities do currently exist and that the District is not aware of them.
Further, it is possible that liabilities may arise in the future with respect to any of the parcels within
Improvement Area 2 resulting from the existence, currently, on the parcel of a substance that is presently
classified as hazardous but which has not been released or the release of which is not presently threatened, or
may arise in the future resulting from the existence, currently, on the parcel of a substance that is not presently
classified as hazardous but which may in the future be so classified. Further, such liabilities may arise not
simply from the existence of a hazardous substance but from the method of handling it. Any of these
possibilities could significantly affect the willingness or ability of the owner of any parcel to pay the Special
Taxes or the value of a parcel that is realizable upon a delinquency.
As described under the caption "THE IMPROVEMENT AREA-Appraised Property Value-
Conditions and Assumptions," the Appraisal assumes that no hazardous materials exist on the property.
Accordingly, the Appraisal does not take into account the possible reduction in marketability and value of any
of the unimproved parcels within Improvement Area 2 by reason of the possible liability of the owner or
operator for hazardous materials on such parcels.
Shapiro Decision
On August 1, 2014, the California Court of Appeal, Fourth Appellate District, Division One (the
"Court"), issued its opinion in City of San Diego v. Melvin Shapiro, et al. (D063997). The case involved a
Convention Center Facilities District (the "CCFD") established by the City of San Diego. The CCFD was a
financing district established under the City of San Diego's charter (the "Charter") and was intended to
function much like a community facilities district established under the provisions of the Act. The CCFD was
comprised of all of the real property in the entire City of San Diego. However, the special tax to be levied
within the CCFD was to be levied only on properties improved with a hotel located within the CCFD.
At the election to authorize such special tax, the Charter proceeding limited the electorate to owners of
hotel properties and lessees of real property owned by a governmental entity on which a hotel is located. Thus,
the election was an election limited to owners and lessees of properties on which the special tax would be
levied, and not a registered voter election. Such approach to determining who would constitute the qualified
electors of the CCFD was based on Section 53326( c) of the Act, which generally provides that, if a special tax
will not be apportioned in any tax year on residential property, the legislative body may provide that the vote
will be by the landowners of the proposed district whose property would be subject to the special tax. The
Court held that the CCFD special tax election did not comply with applicable requirements of Article XIIIA,
Section 4, and Article XIIIC, Section 2, of the State Constitution, or with applicable provisions of the City of
San Diego's Charter, because the electors in such an election were not the registered voters residing within the
district.
In the case of the CCFD, at the time of the election there were several hundred thousand registered
voters within the CCFD (viz., all of the registered voters in the City of San Diego). In the case oflmprovement
Area 2, there were no registered voters within Improvement Area 2 at the time of the elections to authorize the
special tax levy for Improvement Area 2. In City of San Diego, the Court expressly stated that it was not
addressing the validity of landowner voting to impose special taxes pursuant to the Act in situations where
there are fewer than 12 registered voters. Thus, by its terms, the Court's holding does not apply to the special
tax election in Improvement Area 2. Moreover, Section 53341 of the Act provides that any "action or
proceeding to attack, review, set aside, void or annul the levy of a special tax ... shall be commenced within 30
days after the special tax is approved by the voters." Similarly, Section 53359 of the Act provides that any
35
Item #23 - AB #22,370 July 26, 2016 Page 55 of 194
action to determine the validity of bonds issued pursuant to the Act or the levy of special taxes authorized
pursuant to the Act be brought within 3 0 days of the voters approving the issuance of such bonds or the special
tax. Voters approved the Special Tax and the issuance of bonds for Improvement Area 2 in compliance with
all applicable requirements of the Act at the time of formation of the District in 2005. Therefore, under the
provisions of Sections 53341 and 53359 of the Act, the statute oflimitations period to challenge the validity of
the Special Tax for Improvement Area 2 has expired.
Parity Taxes and Special Assessments
Property within the District is subject to taxes and assessments imposed by other public agencies that
have jurisdiction over the land within the District. See the caption "THE IMPROVEMENT AREA-
Estimated Direct and Overlapping Indebtedness."
The Special Taxes and any penalties thereon constitute a lien against the lots and parcels of land on
which they have been levied. Such lien is on a parity with all special taxes and special assessments levied by
the City and other agencies and is co-equal to and independent of the lien for general property taxes, regardless
of when they are imposed upon the same property. The Special Taxes have priority over all existing and future
private liens imposed on the property except, possibly, for liens or security interests held by the Federal
Deposit Insurance Corporation and other federal government entities. See the captions "-Bankruptcy and
Foreclosure" and "-FDIC/Federal Government Interests in Properties" below.
Neither the City nor the District has control over the ability of other entities and districts to
issue indebtedness secured by special taxes, ad valorem taxes or assessments that are payable from all or
a portion of the property within the District. In addition, the Property Owners within the District may,
without the consent or knowledge of the District, petition other public agencies to issue public
indebtedness secured by special taxes, ad valorem taxes or assessments. Any such special taxes,
ad valorem taxes or assessments may have a lien on such property on a parity with the Special Taxes and
could reduce the estimated value-to-lien ratios for property within the District or the willingness of
property owners to pay the Special Tax.
Disclosures to Future Purchasers
The willingness or ability of an owner of a parcel to pay the Special Tax even if the value of the parcel
is sufficient may be affected by whether or not the owner was given due notice of the Special Tax
authorization when the owner purchased the parcel, was informed of the amount of the Special Tax on the
parcel should the Special Tax be levied at the maximum tax rate and the risk of such a levy, and, at the time of
such a levy, has the ability to pay it as well as pay other expenses and obligations. The District has caused a
notice of the Special Tax lien to be recorded in the Office of the Recorder for the County against each parcel.
While title companies normally refer to such notices in title reports, there can be no guarantee that such
reference will be made or, if made, that a prospective purchaser or lender will consider such Special Tax
obligation in the purchase of a property within the District or lending of money secured by such property.
The Act requires the subdivider ( or its agent or representative) of a subdivision to notify a prospective
purchaser or long-term lessor of any lot, parcel, or unit that is subject to a Mello-Roos special tax of the
existence and maximum amount of such special tax using a statutorily prescribed form. California Civil Code
§ 1102.6b requires that in the case of transfers other than those covered by the above requirement, the seller
must at least make a good faith effort to notify the prospective purchaser of the special tax lien in a format
prescribed by statute. Failure by an owner of the property to comply with the above requirements, or failure by
a purchaser or lessor to consider or understand the nature and existence of the Special Tax, could adversely
affect the willingness and ability of the purchaser or lessor to pay the Special Tax when due.
36
Item #23 - AB #22,370 July 26, 2016 Page 56 of 194
Special Tax Delinquencies
Under provisions of the Act, the Special Taxes, from which funds necessary for the payment of
principal of and interest on the Bonds and any Parity Bonds are derived, are customarily billed to the properties
within the District on the ad valorem property tax bills sent to owners of such properties. The Act currently
provides that such Special Tax installments are due and payable, and bear the same penalties and interest for
non-payment, as do ad valorem property tax installments.
Significant delinquencies in the payment of annual Special Tax installments, or delays in the
prosecution of foreclosure proceedings to collect such Special Taxes, could result in default in depletion of the
Reserve Account and default in payment of debt service on the Bonds. See the caption "THE
IMPROVEMENT AREA-Delinquency History" for historical Special Tax delinquency information in
Improvement Area 2. See the caption "SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS-Special Taxes-
Covenant to Foreclose; Proceeds of Foreclosure Sales" for a discussion of the provisions that apply, and the
procedures that the District is obligated to follow under the Indenture, in the event of delinquencies in the
payment of Special Taxes. See the captions "-FDIC/Federal Government Interests in Properties" and "-
Bankruptcy and Foreclosure" for a discussion of the policy of the FDIC and the rights of federal government
entities regarding the payment of special taxes and assessment and limitations on the District's ability to
foreclosure on the lien of the Special Taxes in certain circumstances.
The Alternative Method of Distribution of Tax Levies and Collections and of Tax Sale Proceeds
(known as the Teeter Plan), as provided for in Section 4701 et seq. of the State Revenue and Taxation Code, is
not available for community facilities districts such as the District. The collection of Special Taxes is therefore
subject to the risk of delinquency, while the District is also entitled to collect penalties and interest on
delinquent Special Taxes.
Non-Cash Payments of Special Taxes
Under the Act, the City Council, as the legislative body of the District, may reserve to itself the right
and authority to allow the owner of any taxable parcel to tender a Bond or Parity Bond in full or partial
payment of any installment of the Special Taxes or the interest or penalties thereon. A Bond or Parity Bond so
tendered is to be accepted at par and credit is to be given for any interest accrued thereon to the date of the
tender. Thus, if Bonds or Parity Bonds can be purchased in the secondary market at a discount, it may be to
the advantage of an owner of a taxable parcel to pay the Special Taxes applicable thereto by tendering a Bond
or Parity Bond. Such a practice would decrease the cash flow available to the District to make payments with
respect to other Bonds or Parity Bonds then outstanding; and, unless the practice was limited by the District,
the Special Taxes paid in cash could be insufficient to pay the debt service due with respect to such other
Bonds or Parity Bonds.
In order to provide some protection against the potential adverse impact on cash flows that might be
caused by the tender of Bonds or Parity Bonds in payment of Special Taxes, the Indenture includes a covenant
pursuant to which the District will not adopt any policy pursuant to Section 53341.1 of the Act permitting the
tender of Bonds or Parity Bonds in full payment or partial payment of any Special Taxes unless the District has
first received a certificate from an Independent Financial Consultant that the acceptance of such a tender will
not result in the District having insufficient Special Tax revenues to pay the principal of and interest on the
Bonds and Parity Bonds when due.
Payment of the Special Tax is Not a Personal Obligation of the Owners
The obligation to pay Special Taxes levied within Improvement Area 2 does not constitute a personal
obligation of the current or subsequent owners of the property in Improvement Area 2. Enforcement of
Special Tax payment obligations by the District is limited to judicial foreclosure in the County Superior Court.
See the caption "SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS-Special Taxes-Covenant to Foreclose;
37
Item #23 - AB #22,370 July 26, 2016 Page 57 of 194
Proceeds of Foreclosure Sales." There is no assurance that any current or subsequent owner of a parcel subject
to Special Taxes will be able to pay the Special Taxes, or that such owner will choose to pay such installments
even though financially able to do so.
Land Values
The value of the property within the District is a critical factor in determining the investment quality
of the Bonds. If a property owner is delinquent in the payment of Special Taxes, the District's only remedy is
to commence foreclosure proceedings against the delinquent parcel in an attempt to obtain funds to pay the
Special Taxes. Reductions in property values due to a downturn in the economy, natural disasters, stricter land
use regulations, delays in development or other events could adversely impact the security underlying the
Special Taxes. See the caption "THE IMPROVEMENT AREA-Estimated Value-to-Lien Ratio" herein.
Assessed Values. The assessed values set forth in this Official Statement do not represent market
values arrived at through an appraisal process and generally reflect only the sales price of a parcel when
acquired by its current owner, adjusted annually by an amount determined by the County Assessor, generally
not to exceed an increase of more than 2% per fiscal year, and value increases attributable to new construction.
In the last several years such upward adjustment has been less than 2% annually and in certain years, the
assessed value for specific parcels within Improvement Area 2 may have been revised downwards. In recent
years, many counties in the State, including the County, have reassessed certain properties acquired in recent
years at the peak of the real estate market. The District cannot predict whether the County will reduce assessed
values within Improvement Area 2 in future years. If the County did decide to broadly reassess assessed
valuations in the County, it is possible that in future years the assessed values shown in this Official Statement
could be adjusted downward from the values reflected in this Official Statement. Prospective purchasers of the
Bonds should not assume that the property within Improvement Area 2 could be sold for the assessed values
described in this Official Statement at a foreclosure sale for delinquent Special Taxes or for an amount
adequate to pay delinquent Special Taxes.
No assurance can be given that any bid will be received for a parcel with delinquent Special Taxes
offered for sale at foreclosure or, if a bid is received, that such bid will be sufficient to pay all delinquent
Special Taxes. See the caption "SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS-Special Tax-Covenant to
Foreclose; Proceeds of Foreclosure Sales."
Appraised Values. The Appraisal set forth in Appendix G estimates the market value of the
unimproved parcels within Improvement Area 2. This market value is merely the present opinion of the
Appraiser, and is subject to the assumptions and limiting conditions that are stated in the Appraisal. The
District has not sought the present opinion of any other appraiser of the value of the taxed parcels. A different
present opinion of value might be rendered by a different appraiser.
The opinion of value that is set forth in the Appraisal relates to sale by a willing seller to a willing
buyer, each having similar information and neither being forced by other circumstances to sell or to buy.
Consequently, the opinion is of limited use in predicting the selling price at a foreclosure sale, because the sale
is forced and the buyer may not have the benefit of full information. In addition, the opinion is a present
opinion, based upon present facts and circumstances. Differing facts and circumstances may lead to differing
opinions of value. The appraised value is not evidence of future value because future facts and circumstances
may differ significantly from those that are in existence as of the date of the Appraisal.
No assurance can be given that any of unimproved parcels in Improvement Area 2 could be sold for
the estimated market value that is contained in the Appraisal if such parcels should become delinquent in the
payment of Special Taxes and be foreclosed upon.
38
Item #23 - AB #22,370 July 26, 2016 Page 58 of 194
Potential Early Redemption of Bonds from Prepayments
Property owners within Improvement Area 2 are permitted to prepay their Special Taxes at any time.
Such prepayments will result in a redemption of Bonds. See the caption "THE BONDS-Redemption--
Extraordinary Redemption."
Billing of Special Taxes
A special tax formula can result in a substantially heavier property tax burden being imposed upon
properties within a community facilities district than elsewhere in a city or county, and this in tum can lead to
problems in the collection of the special tax. In some community facilities districts (although not in the
District), taxpayers have refused to pay the special tax and have commenced litigation challenging the special
tax, the community facilities district and bonds issued by the community facilities district.
Under provisions of the Act, the Special Taxes are to be billed to the properties within Improvement
Area 2 that were entered on the Assessment Roll of the County Assessor by January 1 of the previous Fiscal
Year. Such Special Tax installments are due and payable, and bear the same penalties and interest for non-
payment, as do regular property tax installments. These Special Tax installment payments cannot be made
separately from property tax payments. Therefore, the unwillingness or inability of a property owner to pay
regular property tax bills may also indicate an unwillingness or inability to make regular property tax payments
and installment payments of Special Taxes in the future. See the caption "SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR
THE BONDS-Special Taxes-Covenant to Foreclose; Proceeds of Foreclosure Sales" for a discussion of the
provisions that apply, and that procedures that the District is obligated to follow, in the event of delinquency in
the payment of installments of Special Taxes.
Value-to-Lien Ratios
The estimated value-to-lien ratios set forth under the caption "THE IMPROVEMENT AREA-
Estimated Value-to-Lien Ratio" are based on the assessed values of property in Improvement Area 2 and the
direct and overlapping debt currently allocable to such property, as of January 1, 2016. No assurance can be
given that such value-to-lien ratios will be maintained over time. As discussed herein, many factors that are
beyond the control of the City and the District could adversely affect the property values within Improvement
Area 2. Neither the City nor the District has any control over the amount of additional indebtedness that may
be issued by other public agencies, the payment of which, through the levy of a tax or an assessment, is on a
parity with the Special Taxes. See the captions "-Parity Taxes and Special Assessments" and "THE
IMPROVEMENT AREA-Estimated Direct and Overlapping Indebtedness." A decrease in the property
values in Improvement Area 2 or an increase in the parity liens on property in Improvement Area 2, or both,
could result in a lowering of the value-to-lien ratios of the property in Improvement Area 2.
IRS Audit of Tax-Exempt Bond Issues
The Internal Revenue Service (the "IRS") has initiated an expanded program for the auditing of
tax-exempt bond issues, including both random and targeted audits. It is possible that the Bonds will be
selected for audit by the IRS. It is also possible that the market value of the Bonds might be affected as a
result of such an audit ( or by an audit of similar bonds or securities).
FDIC/Federal Government Interests in Properties
General. The ability of the District to collect the Special Taxes and interest and penalties specified by
State law, and to foreclose the lien of delinquent Special Taxes, may be limited in certain respects with regard
to properties in which the FDIC, the Federal National Mortgage Association ("FNMA"), the IRS, the Drug
Enforcement Administration or other similar federal governmental agencies has or obtains an interest.
39
Item #23 - AB #22,370 July 26, 2016 Page 59 of 194
Federal courts have held that, based on the supremacy clause of the United States Constitution, in the
absence of Congressional intent to the contrary, a state or local agency cannot foreclose to collect delinquent
taxes or assessments if foreclosure would impair the federal government's interest. This means that, unless the
United States Congress has otherwise provided, if a federal government entity owns a parcel of taxable
property but does not pay taxes (including Special Taxes) and assessments levied on the parcel, the applicable
state and local governments cannot foreclose on the parcel to collect the delinquent taxes and assessments.
Moreover, unless the United States Congress has otherwise provided, if the federal government has a
mortgage interest in the parcel and the District wishes to foreclose on the parcel as a result of delinquent
Special Taxes, the property cannot be sold at a foreclosure sale unless it can be sold for an amount that is
sufficient to pay delinquent taxes and assessments on a parity with the Special Taxes and preserve the federal
government's mortgage interest. In Rust v. Johnson, 597 F.2d 174 (9th Cir. 1979), the United States Court of
Appeal, Ninth Circuit (the "Ninth Circuit"), held that FNMA is a federal instrumentality for purposes of this
doctrine, and not a private entity, and that, as a result, an exercise of state power over a mortgage interest held
by FNMA constitutes an exercise of state power over property of the United States. For a discussion of risks
associated with taxable parcels within the District becoming owned by the federal government, federal
government entities or federal government sponsored entities, see the caption "-Insufficiency of Special
Taxes."
The District has not undertaken to determine whether any federal governmental entity currently has, or
is likely to acquire, any interest (including a mortgage interest) in any of the parcels subject to the Special
Taxes, and therefore expresses no view concerning the likelihood that the risks described above will
materialize while the Bonds are outstanding.
FDIC. In the event that any financial institution making any loan which is secured by real property
within the District is taken over by the FDIC, and prior thereto or thereafter the loan or loans go into default,
resulting in ownership of the property by the FDIC, then the ability of the District to collect interest and
penalties specified by State law and to foreclose the lien of delinquent unpaid Special Taxes may be limited.
On June 4, 1991, the FDIC issued a Statement of Policy Regarding the Payment of State and Local Property
Taxes (the "1991 Policy Statement"). The 1991 Policy Statement was revised and superseded by new Policy
Statement effective January 9, 1997 (the "Policy Statement"). The Policy Statement provides that real
property that is owned by the FDIC is subject to state and local real property taxes only if those taxes are
assessed according to the property's value, and that the FDIC is immune from real property taxes assessed on
any basis other than property value. According to the Policy Statement, the FDIC will pay its property tax
obligations when they become due and payable and will pay claims for delinquent property taxes as promptly
as is consistent with sound business practice and the orderly administration of the institution's affairs, unless
abandonment of the FDIC's interest in the property is appropriate. The FDIC will pay claims for interest on
delinquent property taxes owed at the rate provided under state law, to the extent that the interest payment
obligation is secured by a valid lien. The FDIC will not pay any amounts in the nature of fines or penalties and
will neither pay nor recognize liens for such amounts. If any property taxes (including interest) on
FDIC-owned property are secured by a valid lien (in effect before the property became owned by the FDIC),
the FDIC will pay those claims. The Policy Statement further provides that no property of the FDIC is subject
to levy, attachment, garnishment, foreclosure or sale without the FDIC's consent. In addition, the FDIC will
not permit a lien or security interest held by the FDIC to be eliminated by foreclosure without the FDIC's
consent.
The Policy Statement states that the FDIC generally will not pay non-ad valorem taxes, including
special assessments, on property in which it has a fee interest unless the amount of tax is fixed at the time that
the FDIC acquires its fee interest in the property, nor will it recognize the validity of any lien to the extent that
such lien purports to secure the payment of any such amounts. Special taxes imposed under the Act and a
special tax formula that determines the special tax due each year are specifically identified in the Policy
Statement as being imposed each year and therefore covered by the FDIC's federal immunity. The Ninth
Circuit issued a ruling on August 28, 2001 in which it determined that the FDIC, as a federal agency, is exempt
40
Item #23 - AB #22,370 July 26, 2016 Page 60 of 194
from special taxes under the Act. With respect to property in the State owned by the FDIC on January 9, 1997
and that was owned by the Resolution Trust Company (the "RTC") on December 31, 1995, or that became the
property of the FDIC through foreclosure of a security interest held by the RTC on that date, the FDIC will
continue the RTC's prior practice of paying special taxes imposed pursuant to the Act if the taxes were
imposed prior to the RTC's acquisition of an interest in the property. All other special taxes may be
challenged by the FDIC.
The City and the District are unable to predict what effect the FDIC's application of the Policy
Statement would have in the event of a delinquency on a parcel within the District in which the FDIC has an
interest, although prohibiting the lien of the FDIC to be foreclosed at a judicial foreclosure sale would reduce
or eliminate the persons willing to purchase a parcel at a foreclosure sale. Owners of the Bonds should assume
that the District will be unable to foreclose on any parcel owned by the FDIC. Such an outcome could cause a
draw on the Reserve Account and perhaps, ultimately, a default in payment on the Bonds.
Bankruptcy and Foreclosure
The various legal opinions to be delivered concurrently with the delivery of the Bonds (including
Bond Counsel's approving legal opinion) will be qualified, as to the enforceability of the various legal
instruments, by bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, or other similar laws affecting the rights of creditors
generally.
The payment of Special Taxes and the ability of the District to foreclose the lien of a delinquent
Special Tax may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or other laws generally affecting creditors' rights or by
the laws of the State relating to judicial foreclosure.
Bankruptcy, insolvency and other laws generally affecting creditors' rights could adversely impact the
interests of owners of the Bonds in at least two ways. First, the payment of property owners' taxes and the
ability of the District to foreclose the lien of delinquent unpaid Special Taxes pursuant to its covenant to
pursue judicial foreclosure proceedings may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or other laws generally
affecting creditors' rights (such as the Soldiers' and Sailors' Relief Act of 1940 discussed below) or by the
laws of the State relating to judicial foreclosure. See the caption "SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE
BONDS-Special Taxes-Covenant to Foreclose; Proceeds of Foreclosure Sales." In addition, the
prosecution of a foreclosure could be delayed for many reasons, including crowded local court calendars or
lengthy procedural delays.
Second, the United States Bankruptcy Code might prevent moneys on deposit in the Special Tax Fund
from being applied to pay interest on the Bonds and/or to redeem Bonds if bankruptcy proceedings were
brought by or against a landowner in the District and if the court found that any of such landowners had an
interest in such moneys within the meaning of Section 541(a)(l) of the United States Bankruptcy Code.
Although bankruptcy proceedings would not cause the Special Taxes to become extinguished, the
amount and priority of any lien on property securing the payment of delinquent Special Taxes could be
reduced or modified if the value of the property were determined by the bankruptcy court to have become less
than the amount of the lien, and the amount of the delinquent Special Taxes in excess of the reduced lien
would then be treated as an unsecured claim by the court. Further, bankruptcy of a property owner could result
in an unwillingness to pay Special Taxes, a stay or other delay in prosecuting Superior Court foreclosure
proceedings. Such a delay would increase the likelihood of a delay or default in payment of the principal of,
and interest on, the Bonds and the possibility of delinquent Special Tax installments not being paid in full.
On July 30, 1992, the Ninth Circuit issued its opinion in a bankruptcy case entitled In re Glasply
Marine Industries ("Glasply"). In that case, the court held that ad valorem property taxes levied by
Snohomish County in the State of Washington after the date that the property owner filed a petition for
bankruptcy were not entitled to priority over a secured creditor with a prior lien on the property. Although the
41
Item #23 - AB #22,370 July 26, 2016 Page 61 of 194
court upheld the priority of unpaid taxes imposed before the bankruptcy petition, unpaid taxes imposed after
the filing of the bankruptcy petition were declared to be "administrative expenses" of the bankruptcy estate,
payable after all secured creditors. As a result, the secured creditor was able to foreclose on the property and
retain all the proceeds of the sale except the amount of the pre-petition taxes.
The Bankruptcy Reform Act of 1994 included a provision which excepts from the United States
Bankruptcy Code's automatic stay provisions, "the creation of a statutory lien for an ad valorem property tax
imposed by . . . a political subdivision of a state if such tax comes due after the filing of the petition [by a
debtor in bankruptcy court]." This amendment effectively makes the Glasply holding inoperative as it relates
to ad valorem real property taxes. However, it is possible that the original rationale of the Glasply ruling could
still result in the treatment of post-petition special taxes as "administrative expenses," rather than as tax liens
secured by real property, at least during the pendency of bankruptcy proceedings.
According to the court's ruling, as administrative expenses, post-petition taxes would be paid,
assuming that the debtor had sufficient assets to do so. In certain circumstances, payment of such
administrative expenses may be allowed to be deferred. Once the property is transferred out of the bankruptcy
estate (through foreclosure or otherwise), it would at that time become subject to current ad valorem taxes.
The Act provides that the Special Taxes are secured by a continuing lien which is subject to the same
lien priority in the case of delinquency as ad valorem taxes. No case law exists with respect to how a
bankruptcy court would treat the lien for Special Taxes levied after the filing of a petition in bankruptcy.
Glasply is controlling precedent on bankruptcy courts in the State. If the Glasply precedent was applied to the
levy of the Special Taxes, the amount of Special Taxes received from parcels whose owners declare
bankruptcy could be reduced.
Other laws generally affecting creditors' rights or relating to judicial foreclosure may affect the ability
to enforce payment of Special Taxes or the timing of enforcement of Special Taxes. For example, the Soldiers
and Sailors Civil Relief Act of 1940 affords protections such as a stay in enforcement of the foreclosure
covenant, a six-month period after termination of military service to redeem property sold to enforce the
collection of a tax or assessment and a limitation on the interest rate on the delinquent tax or assessment to
persons in military service if a court concludes that the ability to pay such taxes or assessments is materially
affected by reason of such service.
No Acceleration Provision
The Bonds do not contain a provision allowing for the acceleration of the Bonds in the event of a
payment default or other default under the Bonds or the Indenture. See Appendix C under the caption
"EVENTS OF DEFAULT-Remedies of Owners" for a description ofremedies that are available to the Bond
Owner if the District defaults under the Indenture.
Loss of Tax Exemption
As discussed under the caption "TAX EXEMPTION," the interest on the Bonds could become
includable in gross income for federal income tax purposes retroactive to the date of issuance of the Bonds as a
result of a failure of the District to comply with certain provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended, or certain legislative changes that occur subsequent to the issuance of the Bonds. Should such an
event oftaxability occur, the Bonds are not subject to early redemption and will remain outstanding to maturity
or until redeemed under the redemption provisions of the Indenture.
42
Item #23 - AB #22,370 July 26, 2016 Page 62 of 194
Limitations on Remedies
Remedies available to the owners of the Bonds may be limited by a variety of factors and may be
inadequate to assure the timely payment of principal of and interest on the Bonds or to preserve the tax-exempt
status of the Bonds.
Bond Counsel has limited its opinion as to the enforceability of the Bonds and of the Indenture to the
extent that enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, fraudulent conveyance or
transfer, moratorium, or other similar laws affecting generally the enforcement of creditors' rights, by
equitable principles and by the exercise of judicial discretion. The lack of availability of certain remedies or
the limitation of remedies may entail risks of delay, limitation or modification of the rights of the owners of the
Bonds.
Limited Secondary Market
There can be no guarantee that there will be a secondary market for the Bonds or, if a secondary
market exists, that such Bonds can be sold for any particular price. Although the District has committed to
provide certain financial and operating information on an annual basis, there can be no assurance that such
information will be available to Owners of the Bonds on a timely basis. See the caption "CONTINUING
DISCLOSURE." The failure to provide the required annual financial information does not give rise to
monetary damages but merely an action for specific performance. Occasionally, because of general market
conditions, lack of current information, or because of adverse history or economic prospects connected with a
particular issue, secondary marketing practices in connection with a particular issue are suspended or
terminated. Additionally, prices of issues for which a market is being made will depend upon then prevailing
circumstances. Such prices could be substantially different from the original purchase price.
Proposition 218
An initiative measure, Proposition 218, which is commonly referred to as the "Right to Vote on Taxes
Act" (the "Initiative") was approved by the voters of the State at the November 5, 1996 general election. The
Initiative added Articles XIIIC and XIIID to the State Constitution. According to the "Title and Summary" of
the Initiative prepared by the State Attorney General, the Initiative limits "the authority of local governments
to impose taxes and property-related assessments, fees and charges." The provisions of the Initiative have not
yet been interpreted by the courts, although several lawsuits have been filed requesting that the courts interpret
various aspects of the Initiative. The Initiative could potentially impact the Special Taxes available to the
District to pay the principal of and interest on the Bonds as described below.
Among other things, Section 3 of Article XIIIC states that " ... the initiative power shall not be
prohibited or otherwise limited in matters of reducing or repealing any local tax, assessment, fee or charge."
The Act provides for a procedure which includes notice, hearing, protest and voting requirements to alter the
rate and method of apportionment of an existing special tax. However, the Act prohibits a legislative body
from adopting any resolution to reduce the rate of any special tax or terminate the levy of any special tax
pledged to repay any debt incurred pursuant to the Act unless such legislative body determines that the
reduction or termination of the special tax would not interfere with the timely retirement of that debt. On
July 1, 1997, a bill was signed into law by the Governor of the State enacting Government Code Section 5854,
which states that:
"Section 3 of Article XIIIC of the California Constitution, as adopted at the November 5,
1996, general election, shall not be construed to mean that any owner or beneficial owner of a
municipal security, purchased before or after that date, assumes the risk of, or in any way
consents to, any action by initiative measure that constitutes an impairment of contractual
rights protected by Section 10 of Article I of the United States Constitution."

Item #23 - AB #22,370 July 26, 2016 Page 63 of 194
Accordingly, although the matter is not free from doubt, it is likely that the Initiative has not conferred
on the voters the power to repeal or reduce the Special Taxes if such reduction would interfere with the timely
retirement of the Bonds. The provisions of the Initiative relating to the exercise of the initiative power have
not been interpreted by the courts, and no assurance can be given as to the outcome of any such litigation.
It may be possible, however, for voters or the City Council, acting as the legislative body of the
District, to reduce the Special Taxes in a manner that does not interfere with the timely repayment of the
Bonds, but which does reduce the maximum amount of Special Taxes that may be levied in any year below the
existing levels. Furthermore, no assurance can be given with respect to the future levy of the Special Taxes in
amounts greater than the amount necessary for the timely retirement of the Bonds. Therefore, no assurance
can be given with respect to the levy of Special Taxes for Administrative Expenses.
Nevertheless, to the maximum extent that the law permits it to do so, the District has covenanted that
it will not initiate proceedings to reduce the maximum Special Tax rates for the District, unless, in connection
therewith: (i) the District receives a certificate from one or more Independent Financial Consultants which,
when taken together, certify that, on the basis of the parcels of land and improvements existing in the District
as of the July 1 preceding the reduction, the maximum amount of the Special Tax which may be levied on
then-existing Taxable Property (as such term is defined in the Rate and Method) in each Bond Year for any
Bonds and Parity Bonds Outstanding will equal at least 110% of the sum of the estimated Administrative
Expenses and gross debt service in each Bond Year on all Bonds and Parity Bonds to remain Outstanding after
the reduction is approved; (ii) the District finds that any reduction made under such conditions will not
adversely affect the interests of the Owners of the Bonds and Parity Bonds; and (iii) the District is not
delinquent in the payment of the principal of or interest on the Bonds or any Parity Bonds. For purposes of
estimating Administrative Expenses for the foregoing calculation, the Independent Financial Consultants will
compute the Administrative Expenses for the current Fiscal Year and escalate such amount by 2% in each
subsequent Fiscal Year. However, no assurance can be given as to the enforceability of the foregoing
covenants.
The interpretation and application of Articles XIIIC and XIIID will ultimately be determined by the
courts with respect to a number of the matters discussed above, and it is not possible at this time to predict with
certainty the outcome of such determination or the timeliness of any remedy afforded by the courts. See the
caption "-Limitations on Remedies."
Ballot Initiatives
Article XIIIC was adopted pursuant to a measure that qualified for the ballot pursuant to the State's
Constitutional initiative process, and the State Legislature has in the past enacted legislation that has altered the
spending limitation or established minimum funding provisions for particular activities. On March 6, 1995, in
the case of Rossi v. Brown, the State Supreme Court held that an initiative can repeal a tax ordinance and
prohibit the imposition of further such taxes and that the exemption from the referendum requirements does
not apply to initiative. From time to time, other initiative measures could be adopted by State voters or
legislation enacted by the State Legislature. The adoption of any such initiative or enactment of legislation
might place limitations on the ability of the State, the County or local districts to increase revenues or
appropriations or on the ability of a property owner to complete the development of property within the
District.
CONTINUING DISCLOSURE

Property Ownership" have agreed to provide, or cause to be provided, to the EMMA system certain annual
financial information and operating data concerning such Property Owners and the parcels that they own
within Improvement Area 2 and notice of certain enumerated events (the "Property Owner Annual

Taxes that are attributable to its property in Improvement Area 2; or (iv) the date on which the applicable
Property Owner has completed construction of all buildings to be constructed on property that it owns in
Improvement Area 2.
The proposed form of the Property Owner Disclosure Certificate is set forth in Appendix D-2.
LEGAL MATTERS
The validity of the Bonds and certain other legal matters are subject to the approving opinion of
Stradling Yocca Carlson & Rauth, a Professional Corporation, Newport Beach, California, Bond Counsel. The
form of Bond Counsel's opinion with respect to the Bonds is set forth in Appendix E. In addition to serving as
Bond Counsel in connection with the issuance and sale of the Bonds, Stradling Y occa Carlson & Rauth, a
Professional Corporation, has served as Disclosure Counsel to the District. Certain legal matters will be
passed on for the City and the District by the City Attorney, for the Underwriter by Jones Hall, A Professional
Law Corporation, and for the Trustee by its counsel.
TAX EXEMPTION
In the opinion of Stradling Yocca Carlson & Rauth, a Professional Corporation, Newport Beach,
California, Bond Counsel, under existing statutes, regulations, rulings and judicial decisions, and assuming the
accuracy of certain representations and compliance with certain covenants and requirements described in this
Official Statement, interest (and original issue discount) on the Bonds is excluded from gross income for
federal income tax purposes, and is not an item of tax preference for purposes of calculating the federal
alternative minimum tax imposed on individuals and corporations. In the further opinion of Bond Counsel,
interest (and original issue discount) on the Bonds is exempt from State of California personal income tax.
Bond Counsel notes that, with respect to corporations, interest on the Bonds may be included as an adjustment
in calculation of alternative minimum taxable income, which may affect the alternative minimum tax liability
of such corporations.
Bond Counsel's opinion as to the exclusion from gross income for federal income tax purposes of
interest (and original issue discount) on the Bonds is based upon certain representations of fact and
45
Item #23 - AB #22,370 July 26, 2016 Page 65 of 194
certifications made by the District, the Underwriter and others and is subject to the condition that the District
complies with all requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code") that must be
satisfied subsequent to the issuance of the Bonds to assure that interest (and original issue discount) on the
Bonds will not become includable in gross income for federal income tax purposes. Failure to comply with
such requirements of the Code might cause interest (and original issue discount) on the Bonds to be included in
gross income for federal income tax purposes retroactive to the date of issuance of the Bonds. The District
will covenant to comply with all such requirements.
In the opinion of Bond Counsel, the difference between the issue price of a Bond (the first price at
which a substantial amount of the Bonds of a maturity is to be sold to the public) and the stated redemption
price at maturity of such Bond constitutes original issue discount. Original issue discount accrues under a
constant yield method, and original issue discount will accrue to a Beneficial Owner before receipt of cash
attributable to such excludable income. The amount of original issue discount deemed received by a
Beneficial Owner will increase the Beneficial Owner basis in the applicable Bond. The amount of original
issue discount that accrues to the Beneficial Owner of a Bond is excluded from the gross income of such
Beneficial Owner for federal income tax purposes, is not an item of tax preference for purposes of the federal
alternative minimum tax imposed on individuals and corporations, and is exempt from State of California
personal income tax.
The amount by which an Owner's original basis for determining loss on sale or exchange in the
applicable Bond (generally, the purchase price) exceeds the amount payable on maturity (or on an earlier call
date) constitutes amortizable bond premium, which must be amortized under Section 171 of the Code; such
amortizable bond premium reduces the Owner's basis in the applicable Bond (and the amount of tax-exempt
interest received), and is not deductible for federal income tax purposes. The basis reduction as a result of the
amortization of bond premium may result in an Owner realizing a taxable gain when a Bond is sold by the
Owner for an amount equal to or less (under certain circumstances) than the original cost of the Bond to the
Owner. Purchasers of the Bonds should consult their own tax advisors as to the treatment, computation and
collateral consequences of amortizable bond premium.
The IRS has initiated an expanded program for the auditing of tax-exempt bond issues, including both
random and targeted audits. It is possible that the Bonds will be selected for audit by the IRS. It is also
possible that the market value of the Bonds might be affected as a result of such an audit of the Bonds (or by
an audit of similar municipal obligations). No assurance can be given that in the course of an audit, as a result
of an audit, or otherwise, Congress or the IRS might not change the Code ( or interpretation thereof) subsequent
to the issuance of the Bonds to the extent that it adversely affects the exclusion from gross income of interest
(and original issue discount) on the Bonds or their market value.
SUBSEQUENT TO THE ISSUANCE OF THE BONDS, THERE MIGHT BE FEDERAL, STATE
OR LOCAL STATUTORY CHANGES (OR JUDICIAL OR REGULATORY INTERPRETATIONS OF
FEDERAL, STATE OR LOCAL LAW) THAT AFFECT THE FEDERAL, STATE OR LOCAL TAX
TREATMENT OF THE INTEREST ON THE BONDS OR THE MARKET VALUE OF THE BONDS.
LEGISLATIVE CHANGES HA VE BEEN PROPOSED IN CONGRESS, WHICH, IF ENACTED, WOULD
RESULT IN ADDITIONAL FEDERAL INCOME TAX BEING IMPOSED ON CERTAIN OWNERS OF
TAX-EXEMPT STATE OR LOCAL OBLIGATIONS, SUCH AS THE BONDS. THE INTRODUCTION
OR ENACTMENT OF ANY OF SUCH CHANGES COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT THE MARKET
VALUE OR LIQUIDITY OF THE BONDS. NO ASSURANCE CAN BE GIVEN THAT, SUBSEQUENT
TO THE ISSUANCE OF THE BONDS, SUCH CHANGES (OR OTHER CHANGES) WILL NOT BE
INTRODUCED OR ENACTED OR THAT SUCH INTERPRETATIONS WILL NOT OCCUR. BEFORE
PURCHASING ANY OF THE BONDS, ALL POTENTIAL PURCHASERS SHOULD CONSULT THEIR
TAX ADVISORS REGARDING POSSIBLE STATUTORY CHANGES OR JUDICIAL OR REGULATORY
CHANGES OR INTERPRETATIONS, AND THEIR COLLATERAL TAX CONSEQUENCES RELATING
TO THE BONDS.
46
Item #23 - AB #22,370 July 26, 2016 Page 66 of 194
Bond Counsel's opinion may be affected by actions taken (or not taken) or events occurring (or not
occurring) after the date hereof. Bond Counsel has not undertaken to determine, or to inform any person,
whether any such actions or events are taken or do occur. The Indenture and the Tax Certificate relating to the
Bonds permit certain actions to be taken or to be omitted if a favorable opinion of Bond Counsel is provided
with respect thereto. Bond Counsel expresses no opinion as to the effect on the exclusion from gross income
for federal income tax purposes of interest (and original issue discount) with respect to any Bond if any such
action is taken or omitted based upon the advice of counsel other than Stradling Y occa Carlson & Rauth, a
Professional Corporation.
Although Bond Counsel will render an opinion that interest (and original issue discount) on the Bonds
is excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes provided that the District continues to comply
with certain requirements of the Code, the accrual or receipt of interest (and original issue discount) on the
Bonds may otherwise affect the tax liability of certain persons. Bond Counsel expresses no opinion regarding
any such tax consequences. Accordingly, before purchasing any of the Bonds, all potential purchasers should
consult their tax advisors with respect to collateral tax consequences relating to the Bonds.
A copy of the proposed form of opinion of Bond Counsel for the Bonds is set forth in Appendix E.

Indenture, or in any way contesting or affecting the validity or enforceability of the Bonds, the Indenture, or
any action of the District contemplated by any of said documents, or in any way contesting the completeness or
accuracy of this Official Statement or any amendment or supplement thereto, or contesting the powers of the

FORM OF OPINION OF BOND COUNSEL
Upon issuance of the Bonds, Stradling Yocca Carlson & Rauth, a Professional Corporation, Bond
Counsel, proposes to render its final approving opinions with respect to the Bonds in substantially the
following form:
July_, 2016
City of Carlsbad Community Facilities District No. 3
Carlsbad, California
Re: City of Carlsbad Community Facilities District No. 3 2016 Special Tax
Refunding Bonds (Improvement Area 2)
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We have examined the Constitution and the laws of the State of California (the "State"), a certified
record of the proceedings of the City of Carlsbad (the "City") taken in connection with the formation of City of
Carlsbad Community Facilities District No. 3 (the "District") and the authorization and issuance of the
District's 2016 Special Tax Refunding Bonds (Improvement Area 2) in the aggregate principal amount of
$ (the "Bonds") and such other information and documents as we consider necessary to render this
opinion. In rendering this opinion, we have relied upon certain representations of fact and certifications made
by the City, the District, the initial purchasers of the Bonds and others. We have not undertaken to verify
through independent investigation the accuracy of the representations and certifications relied upon by us.
The Bonds have been issued pursuant to the Mello-Roos Community Facilities Act of 1982, as
amended ( comprising Chapter 2.5 of Part 1 of Division 2 of Title 5 of the Government Code of the State of
California), and a Bond Indenture dated as of August 1, 2016 (the "Indenture"), by and between the District
and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee (the "Trustee"). All capitalized terms not
defined herein have the meanings set forth in the Indenture.
The Bonds are dated their date of delivery and mature on the dates and in the amounts set forth in the
Indenture. The Bonds bear interest payable semiannually on each March 1 and September 1, commencing on
__ 1, 20 _, at the rates per annum set forth in the Indenture. The Bonds are registered Bonds in the form set
forth in the Indenture, redeemable in the amounts, at the times and in the manner provided for in the Indenture.
Based upon our examination of the foregoing, and in reliance thereon and on all matters of fact as we
deem relevant under the circumstances, and upon consideration of applicable laws, we are of the opinion that:
(1) The Bonds have been duly and validly authorized by the District and are legal, valid and
binding limited obligations of the District, enforceable in accordance with their terms and the terms of the
Indenture. The Bonds are limited obligations of the District but are not a debt of the City, the State or any
other political subdivision thereof within the meaning of any constitutional or statutory limitation, and, except
for the Special Taxes, neither the faith and credit nor the taxing power of the City, the State or any of its
political subdivisions is pledged for the payment thereof.
(2) The execution and delivery of the Indenture has been duly authorized by the District, and the
Indenture is valid and binding upon the District and is enforceable in accordance with its terms, provided,
however, that we express no opinion as to the enforceability of the covenant of the District contained in the
E-1
Item #23 - AB #22,370 July 26, 2016 Page 81 of 194
Indenture to levy Special Taxes for the payment of Administrative Expenses or as to any indemnification,
penalty, choice of law, choice of forum or waiver provisions contained therein.
(3) The Indenture creates a valid pledge of that which the Indenture purports to pledge, subject to
the provisions of the Indenture.
(4) Under existing statutes, regulations, rulings and judicial decisions, interest (and original issue
discount) on the Bonds is excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes and is not an item of
tax preference for purposes of calculating the federal alternative minimum tax imposed on individuals and
corporations; however, it should be noted that, with respect to corporations, such interest (and original issue
discount) may be included as an adjustment in the calculation of alternative minimum taxable income, which
may affect the alternative minimum tax liability of corporations.
(5) Interest (and original issue discount) on the Bonds is exempt from State personal income tax.
(6) The difference between the issue price of a Bond (the first price at which a substantial amount
of the Bonds of a maturity is to be sold to the public) and the stated redemption price at maturity with respect
to such Bond constitutes original issue discount. Original issue discount accrues under a constant yield
method, and original issue discount will accrue to a Bond owner before receipt of cash attributable to such
excludable income. The amount of original issue discount deemed received by a Bond owner will increase the
Bond owner's basis in the applicable Bond. The amount of original issue discount that accrues to the Bond
owner is excluded from the gross income of such owner for federal income tax purposes, is not an item of tax
preference for purposes of calculating the federal alternative minimum tax imposed on individuals or
corporations and is exempt from State personal income tax.
(7) The amount by which a Bond owner's original basis for determining loss on sale or exchange
in the applicable Bond (generally the purchase price) exceeds the amount payable on maturity (or on an earlier
call date) constitutes amortizable Bond premium which must be amortized under Section 171 of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"); such amortizable Bond premium reduces the Bond owner's
basis in the applicable Bond (and the amount of tax-exempt interest received), and is not deductible for federal
income tax purposes. The basis reduction as a result of the amortization of Bond premium may result in a
Bond owner realizing a taxable gain when a Bond is sold by the owner for an amount equal to or less (under
certain circumstances) than the original cost of the Bond to the owner. Purchasers of the Bonds should consult
their own tax advisors as to the treatment, computation and collateral consequences of amortizable bond
premium.
The opinions expressed in paragraphs (4) and (6) above as to the exclusion from gross income for
federal income tax purposes of interest (and original issue discount) on the Bonds are based upon certain
representations of fact and certifications made by the District and are subject to the condition that the District
comply with certain covenants and all requirements of the Code that must be satisfied subsequent to the
issuance of the Bonds to assure that such interest ( and original issue discount) will not become includable in
gross income for federal income tax purposes. Failure to comply with such covenants and requirements of the
Code may cause interest (and original issue discount) on the Bonds to be included in gross income for federal
income tax purposes retroactive to the date of issuance of the Bonds. The District has covenanted to comply
with all such requirements. Except as set forth in paragraphs (4), (5), (6) and (7) above, we express no opinion
as to any tax consequences related to the Bonds.
The opinions expressed herein are based upon our analysis and interpretation of existing laws,
regulations, rulings and judicial decisions and cover certain matters not directly addressed by such authorities.
We call attention to the fact that the rights and obligations of the District under the Indenture and the Bonds are
subject to and may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance
and other similar laws affecting creditors' rights, to the application of equitable principles if equitable remedies
E-2
Item #23 - AB #22,370 July 26, 2016 Page 82 of 194
are sought, to the exercise of judicial discretion in appropriate cases and to limitations on legal remedies
against public agencies in the State.
Our opinion is limited to matters governed by the laws of the State of California and federal law. We
assume no responsibility with respect to the applicability or the effect of the laws of any other jurisdiction and
express no opinion as to the enforceability of the choice of law provisions contained in the Indenture.
We express no opinion herein as to the accuracy, completeness or sufficiency of the Official
Statement relating to the Bonds or other offering material relating to the Bonds and expressly disclaim any
duty to advise the owners of the Bonds with respect to matters contained in the Official Statement.
Certain requirements and procedures contained or referred to in the Indenture and Tax Certificate may
be changed, and certain actions may be taken or omitted, under the circumstances and subject to the terms and
conditions set forth in the Indenture and Tax Certificate relating to the Bonds, upon the advice or with the
approving opinion of counsel nationally recognized in the area of tax-exempt obligations. We express no
opinion as to the effect on the exclusion from gross income for federal income tax purposes of the interest ( and
original issue discount) on any Bonds if any such change occurs or action is taken or omitted upon the advice
or approval of counsel other than Stradling Y occa Carlson & Rauth, a Professional Corporation.
We call attention to the fact that the foregoing opinions may be affected by actions taken ( or not
taken) or events occurring (or not occurring) after the date hereof. We have not undertaken to determine, or to
inform any person, whether such actions or events are taken (or not taken) or do occur (or do not occur). Our
engagement as bond counsel to the District terminates upon the issuance of the Bonds.
Respectfully submitted,

APPENDIXF
BOOK-ENTRY ONLY SYSTEM
The information in this Appendix concerning DTC and DTC 's book-entry only system has been
obtained from sources that the District and the Underwriter believe to be reliable, but neither the District nor
the Underwriter takes any responsibility for the completeness or accuracy thereof The following description
of the procedures and record keeping with respect to beneficial ownership interests in the Bonds, payment of
principal, premium, if any, accreted value and interest on the Bonds to DTC Participants or Beneficial
Owners, confirmation and transfers of beneficial ownership interests in the Bonds and other related
transactions by and between DTC, the DTC Participants and the Beneficial Owners is based solely on
information provided by DTC.
The Depository Trust Company ("DTC"), New York, NY, will act as securities depository for the Bonds.
The 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
bond will be issued for each annual maturity of the Bonds, each in the aggregate principal amount of such annual
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 100 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 Participants 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
its Participants are on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission. More information about DTC can be
found at www.dtcc.com.
Purchases of Bonds under the DTC system must be made by or through Direct Participants, which will
receive a credit for the Bonds on DTC's records. The ownership interest of each actual purchaser of each Bond
("Beneficial Owner") is in turn to 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 Bonds are to be accomplished by entries made on the books of Direct and Indirect
Participants acting on behalf of Beneficial Owners. Beneficial Owners will not receive certificates representing
their ownership interests in the Bonds, except in the event that use of the book-entry system for the Bonds is
discontinued.
To facilitate subsequent transfers, all Bonds deposited by Direct Participants with DTC are registered in the
name of DTC's partnership nominee, Cede & Co., or such other name as may be requested by an authorized
representative of DTC. The deposit of 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
F-1
Item #23 - AB #22,370 July 26, 2016 Page 84 of 194
Beneficial Owners of the Bonds; DTC's records reflect only the identity of the Direct Participants to whose accounts
such 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 Bonds may wish to take certain steps to augment the transmission to them of notices of
significant events with respect to the Bonds, such as redemptions, tenders, defaults, and proposed amendments to the
Bond documents. For example, Beneficial Owners of Bonds may wish to ascertain that the nominee holding the
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 shall be sent to DTC. If less than all of the Bonds within a maturity are being
redeemed, DTC's practice is to determine by lot the amount of the interest of each Direct Participant in such
maturity to be redeemed.
Neither DTC nor Cede & Co. (nor any other DTC nominee) will consent or vote with respect to 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 Authority 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 Bonds are credited
on the record date (identified in a listing attached to the Omnibus Proxy).
Redemption proceeds, distributions, and dividend payments on the Bonds will be made to Cede & Co., or
such other nominee as may be requested by an authorized representative ofDTC. DTC's practice is to credit Direct
Participants' accounts upon DTC's receipt of funds and corresponding detail information from the Authority or the
Trustee, on payable date in accordance with their respective holdings shown on DTC's records. Payments by
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 will be the
responsibility of such Participant and not of DTC, the Trustee, or the Authority, subject to any statutory or
regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time to time. Payment of redemption proceeds, distributions, and
dividend payments to Cede & Co. ( or such other nominee as may be requested by an authorized representative of
DTC) is the responsibility of the Authority or the Trustee, disbursement of 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.
A Bond Owner shall give notice to elect to have its Bonds purchased or tendered, through its Participant, to
the Trustee, and shall effect delivery of such Bonds by causing the Direct Participant to transfer the Participant's
interest in the Bonds, on DTC's records, to the Trustee. The requirement for physical delivery of Bonds in
connection with an optional tender or a mandatory purchase will be deemed satisfied when the ownership rights in
the Bonds are transferred by Direct Participants on DTC's records and followed by a book-entry credit of tendered
Bonds to the Trustee's DTC account. DTC may discontinue providing its services as depository with respect to the
Bonds at any time by giving reasonable notice to the Authority or the Trustee. Under such circumstances, in the
event that a successor depository is not obtained, physical certificates are required to be printed and delivered.
The Authority may decide to discontinue use of the system of book-entry only transfers through DTC (or a
successor securities depository). In that event, bonds will be printed and delivered to DTC.
THE TRUSTEE, AS LONG AS A BOOK-ENTRY ONLY SYSTEM IS USED FOR THE BONDS, WILL
SEND ANY NOTICE OF REDEMPTION OR OTHER NOTICES TO OWNERS ONLY TO DTC. ANY
FAILURE OF DTC TO ADVISE ANY DTC PARTICIPANT, OR OF ANY DTC PARTICIPANT TO NOTIFY
ANY BENEFICIAL OWNER, OF ANY NOTICE AND ITS CONTENT OR EFFECT WILL NOT AFFECT THE
VALIDITY OF SUFFICIENCY OF THE PROCEEDINGS RELATING TO THE REDEMPTION OF THE
BONDS CALLED FOR REDEMPTION OR OF ANY OTHER ACTION PREMISED ON SUCH NOTICE.

of transfer in a form acceptable to the Trustee and duly executed by the Bondowner or his or her duly
authorized attorney.
Bonds or Parity Bonds may be exchanged at the Principal Office of the Trustee for a like
aggregate principal amount of Bonds or Parity Bonds for other authorized denominations of the same
maturity and issue. The Trustee shall not collect from the Owner any charge for any new Bond or
Parity Bond issued upon any exchange or transfer, but shall require the Bondowner requesting such
exchange or transfer to pay any tax or other governmental charge required to be paid with respect to

destroyed or stolen, shall be equally and proportionately entitled to the benefits hereof with all other
Bonds and Parity Bonds issued hereunder. The Trustee shall not treat both the original Bond or
Parity Bond and any replacement Bond or Parity Bond as being Outstanding for the purpose of
determining the principal amount of Bonds or Parity Bonds which may be executed, authenticated
and delivered hereunder or for the purpose of determining any percentage of Bonds or Parity Bonds
Outstanding hereunder, but both the original and replacement Bond or Parity Bond shall be treated as
one and the same. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section, in lieu of delivering a new
Bond or Parity Bond which has been mutilated, lost, destroyed or stolen, and which has matured, the
Trustee may make payment with respect to such Bonds or Parity Bonds.
Section 2.11. Validity of Bonds and Parity Bonds. The validity of the authorization and
issuance of the Bonds and any Parity Bonds shall not be affected in any way by any defect in any
proceedings taken by the District for the refunding of the 2008 Bonds, or by the invalidity, in whole
or in part, of any contracts made by the District in connection therewith, and shall not be dependent
upon the completion of the refunding of the 2008 Bonds or upon the performance by any Person of
such Person's obligation with respect to the Project, and the recital contained in the Bonds or any
Parity Bonds that the same are issued pursuant to the Act and other applicable laws of the State of
California shall be conclusive evidence oftheir validity and of the regularity of their issuance.
Section 2.12. Book Entry System.
(a) Election of Book Entry System. Prior to the issuance of the Bonds and any Parity
Bonds, the District may provide that such Bonds and Parity Bonds shall be initially issued as book
entry bonds. If the District shall elect to deliver any Bonds or Parity Bonds in book entry form, then
the District shall cause the delivery of a separate single fully registered bond (which may be

corresponding to that total principal amount of the Bonds or Parity Bonds designated to mature on
such date. Upon initial issuance, the ownership of each such Bond or Parity Bond shall be registered
in the Bond Register in the name of the Nominee, as nominee of the Depository, and ownership of
16
Item #23 - AB #22,370 July 26, 2016 Page 114 of 194
the Bonds or Parity Bonds, or any portion thereof may not thereafter be transferred except as
provided in subsection (e).
With respect to book entry Bonds or Parity Bonds, the District and the Trustee shall have no
responsibility or obligation to any Participant or to any person on behalf of which such a Participant
holds an interest in such book entry bonds. Without limiting the immediately preceding sentence, the
District and the Trustee shall have no responsibility or obligation with respect to: (i) the accuracy of
the records of the Depository, the Nominee, or any Participant with respect to any ownership interest
in book entry bonds; (ii) the delivery to any Participant or any other person, other than an Owner as
shown in the Bond Register, of any notice with respect to book entry bonds, including any notice of
redemption; (iii) the selection by the Depository and its Participants of the beneficial interests in
book entry bonds to be redeemed in the event that the District redeems the Bonds or Parity in part; or
(iv) the payment by the Depository or any Participant or any other person, of any amount of principal
of, premium, if any, or interest on book entry bonds. The District and the Trustee may treat and
consider the person in whose name each book entry bond is registered in the Bond Register as the
absolute Owner of such book entry bond for the purpose of payment of principal of, premium and
interest on such Bond or Parity Bond, for the purpose of giving notices of redemption and other
matters with respect to such Bond or Parity Bond, for the purpose of registering transfers with respect
to such Bond or Parity Bonds, and for all other purposes whatsoever. The Trustee shall pay all
principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds or Parity Bonds only to or upon the order of
the respective Owner, as shown in the Bond Register, or such Owner's respective attorney duly
authorized in writing, and all such payments shall be valid and effective to fully satisfy and discharge
the District's obligations with respect to payment of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the
Bonds or Parity Bonds to the extent of the sum or sums so paid. No person other than an Owner, as
shown in the Bond Register, shall receive a Bond or Parity Bond evidencing the obligation to make
payments of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds or Parity Bonds. Upon delivery

Depository's book entry system, the District and the Trustee (if required by the Depository) shall
execute and deliver to the Depository a Representation Letter. The execution and delivery of a
Representation Letter shall not in any way impose upon the District or the Trustee any obligation
whatsoever with respect to persons having interests in such book entry bonds other than the Owners,
as shown on the Bond Register. By executing a Representation Letter, the Trustee shall agree to take
all action necessary at all times so that the Trustee will be in compliance with all representations of
the Trustee in such Representation Letter. In addition to the execution and delivery of a
Representation Letter, the District and the Trustee shall take such other actions, not inconsistent with
the Indenture, as are reasonably necessary to qualify book entry bonds for the Depository's book
entry program.
(c) Selection of Depository. In the event that: (i) the Depository determines not to
continue to act as securities depository for book entry bonds; or (ii) the District determines that
continuation of the book entry system is not in the best interest of the beneficial owners of the Bonds,
the Parity Bonds or the District, then the District will discontinue the book entry system with the
Depository. If the District determines to replace the Depository with another qualified securities
depository, the District shall prepare or direct the preparation of a new single, separate, fully

Item #23 - AB #22,370 July 26, 2016 Page 115 of 194

such successor or substitute qualified securities depository or its Nominee as provided in subsection

transferring or exchanging such Bonds or Parity Bonds shall designate, in accordance with the
provisions of this Indenture.

interest on such Bonds or Parity Bonds and all notices with respect thereto shall be made and given,
respectively to the Nominee, as provided in the Representation Letter or as otherwise instructed by
the Depository and agreed to by the Trustee notwithstanding any inconsistent provisions herein.

Registered ownership of such Bonds, or any portions thereof, may not thereafter be transferred
except:
(i) to any successor of the Depository or its nominee, or of any

laws to provide the service proposed to be provided by it;

able to carry out its functions as depository; provided that any such Substitute Depository shall be
qualified under any applicable laws to provide the services proposed to be provided by it; or
(iii) to any person as provided below, upon: (I) the resignation of
the Depository or its successor (or any Substitute Depository or its successor) from its functions as

District to the Trustee designating the Substitute Depository, a single new Bond, which the District
shall prepare or cause to be prepared, shall be issued for each maturity of Bonds then Outstanding,
registered in the name of such successor or such Substitute Depository or their Nominees, as the case
may be, all as specified in such written request of the District. In the case of any transfer pursuant to
clause (iii) of subsection (1 ), upon receipt of all Outstanding Bonds by the Trustee, together with a
written request of the District to the Trustee, new Bonds, which the District shall prepare or cause to
be prepared, shall be issued in such denominations and registered in the names of such persons as are

Bonds evidencing a portion of the principal maturing in a particular year, the Depository or its
successor (or any Substitute Depository or its successor) shall make an appropriate notation on such
Bonds indicating the date and amounts of such reduction in principal, in form acceptable to the
Trustee, all in accordance with the Representation Letter. The Trustee shall not be liable for such
Depository's failure to make such notations or errors in making such notations and the records of the
Trustee as to the Outstanding principal amount of such Bonds shall be controlling.

whose name any Bond is registered as the Owner thereof for all purposes of the Indenture and any
applicable laws, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary received by the Trustee or the District;
and the District and the Trustee shall not have responsibility for transmitting payments to,
communicating with, notifying, or otherwise dealing with any beneficial owners of the Bonds.

(ii) Annual Transfer. Within 55 days of the end of each Bond Year for
which Rebatable Arbitrage must be calculated as required by the Tax Certificate for each issue, upon
the written direction of an Authorized Representative of the District, an amount shall be deposited to
each subaccount of the Rebate Account by the Trustee from any funds so designated by the District if
and to the extent required, so that the balance in the Rebate Account shall equal the amount of
Rebatable Arbitrage so calculated by or on behalf of the District in accordance with
subsection (a)(l)(i) with respect to the Bonds and each issue of Parity Bonds to which this
Section 3.7 is applicable. In the event that immediately following any transfer required by the
previous sentence, or the date on which the District determines that no transfer is required for such
Bond Year, the amount then on deposit to the credit of the applicable subaccount of the Rebate
Account exceeds the amount required to be on deposit therein, upon written instructions from an
Authorized Representative of the District, the Trustee shall withdraw the excess from the appropriate
subaccount of the Rebate Account and then credit the excess to the Special Tax Fund.
(iii) Payment to the Treasury. The Trustee shall pay, as directed in writing
by an Authorized Representative of the District, to the United States Treasury, out of amounts in
each subaccount of the Rebate Account: (X) not later than 60 days after the end of: (A) the fifth Bond
Year for the Bonds and each issue of Parity Bonds to which this Section 3.7 is applicable; and
(B) each applicable fifth Bond Year thereafter, an amount equal to at least 90% of the Rebatable
Arbitrage calculated as of the end of such Bond Year for the Bonds and each issue of Parity Bonds,
as applicable; and (Y) not later than 60 days after the payment or redemption of all of the Bonds or
an issue of Parity Bonds, as applicable, an amount equal to 1 00% of the Rebatable Arbitrage
calculated as of the end of such applicable Bond Year, and any income attributable to the Rebatable
Arbitrage, computed in accordance with Section 148(f) ofthe Code.
In the event that, prior to the time that any payment is required to be made from the Rebate
Account, the amount in the Rebate Account is not sufficient to make such payment when such
payment is due, the District shall calculate or cause to be calculated the amount of such deficiency
and deposit an amount received from any legally available source equal to such deficiency prior to
the time such payment is due. Each payment required to be made pursuant to this subsection (a)(l)
shall be made to the Internal Revenue Service Center, Ogden, Utah 84201 on or before the date on
which such payment is due, and shall be accompanied by Internal Revenue Service Form 8038-T, or
shall be made in such other manner as provided under the Code. The Trustee may rely conclusively
upon the District's determinations, calculations and certifications required by this Section. The
24
Item #23 - AB #22,370 July 26, 2016 Page 122 of 194
Trustee shall have no responsibility to independently make any calculation or determination or to
review the District's calculations hereunder.
(2) Alternative Penalty Account.
(i) Six-Month Computation. If the 1 Yz% Penalty has been elected for the
Bonds or an issue of Parity Bonds, within 85 days of each particular Six-Month Period, the District
shall determine or cause to be determined whether the 1 Yz% Penalty is payable (and the amount of
such penalty) as of the close of the applicable Six-Month Period. The District shall obtain expert
advice in making such determinations.
(ii) Six-Month Transfer. Within 85 days of the close of each Six-Month
Period, the Trustee, at the written direction of an Authorized Representative of the District, shall
deposit an amount in the appropriate subaccounts of the Alternative Penalty Account from any
source of funds held by the Trustee pursuant to this Indenture and designated by the District in such
written directions or provided to it by the District, if and to the extent required, so that the balance in
each subaccount of the Alternative Penalty Account equals the amount of 1 Yz% Penalty due and
payable to the United States Treasury determined as provided in subsection (a)(2)(i). In the event
that immediately following any transfer provided for in the previous sentence, or the date on which
the District determines that no transfer is required for such Bond Year, the amount then on deposit in
a subaccount of the Alternative Penalty Account exceeds the amount required to be on deposit
therein to make the payments required by subsection (a)(2)(iii), the Trustee, at the written direction
of an Authorized Representative of the District, may withdraw the excess from the applicable
subaccount of the Alternative Penalty Account and credit the excess to the Special Tax Fund.
(iii) Payment to the Treasury. The Trustee shall pay, as directed in writing
by an Authorized Representative of the District, to the United States Treasury, out of amounts in a
subaccount of the Alternative Penalty Account, not later than 90 days after the close of each
Six-Month Period the 1 Yz% Penalty, if applicable and payable, computed with respect to the Bonds
and any issue of Parity Bonds in accordance with Section 148(f)( 4) of the Code. In the event that,
prior to the time that any payment is required to be made from a subaccount of the Alternative
Penalty Account, the amount in such subaccount is not sufficient to make such payment when such
payment is due, the District shall calculate the amount of such deficiency and direct the Trustee, in
writing, to deposit an amount equal to such deficiency into such subaccount of the Alternative
Penalty Account from any funds held by the Trustee pursuant to this Indenture and designated by the
District in such written directions prior to the time such payment is due. Each payment required to
be made pursuant to this subsection (a)(2) shall be made to the Internal Revenue Service, Ogden,
Utah 84201 on or before the date on which such payment is due, and shall be accompanied by
Internal Revenue Service Form 8038-T or shall be made in such other manner as provided under the
Code.
(b) Disposition of Unexpended Funds. Any funds remaining in the Accounts of the
Rebate Fund with respect to the Bonds or an issue of Parity Bonds after redemption and payment of
such issue and after making the payments described in subsections (a )(1 )(iii) or (a )(2)(iii) (whichever
is applicable), may be withdrawn by the Trustee at the written direction of the District and utilized in
any manner by the District.
25
Item #23 - AB #22,370 July 26, 2016 Page 123 of 194
(c) Survival of Defeasance and Final Payment. Notwithstanding anything in this Section
or this Indenture to the contrary, the obligation to comply with the requirements of this Section shall
survive the defeasance and final payment of the Bonds and any Parity Bonds with respect to which
an Account has been created in the Rebate Fund.
(d) Amendment Without Consent of Owners. This Section 3.7 may be deleted or
amended in any manner without the consent of the Owners, provided that prior to such event there is
delivered to the District an opinion of Bond Counsel to the effect that such deletion or amendment
will not adversely affect the exclusion from gross income for federal income tax purposes of interest
on the Bonds and any issue of Parity Bonds issued on a tax-exempt basis.
Section 3.8. Surplus Fund. After making the transfers required by Sections 3.3, 3.4, 3.5,
3.6 and 3.7, as soon as practicable after each September 1, and in any event prior to each October 1,
the Trustee shall transfer all remaining amounts in the Special Tax Fund to the Surplus Fund, unless
on or prior to such date, it has received a Certificate of an Authorized Representative of the District
directing that certain amounts be retained in the Special Tax Fund because the District has included
such amounts as being available in the Special Tax Fund in calculating the amount of the levy of
Special Taxes for such Fiscal Year pursuant to Section 5.2(b). Moneys deposited in the Surplus
Fund will be transferred by the Trustee at the direction of an Authorized Representative of the
District: (a) to the Interest Account, the Principal Account or the Redemption Account of the Special
Tax Fund to pay the principal of, including Sinking Fund Payments, premium, if any, and interest on
the Bonds and any Parity Bonds when due in the event that moneys in the Special Tax Fund and the
Reserve Account of the Special Tax Fund are insufficient therefor; (b) to the Reserve Account
in order to replenish the Reserve Account to the Reserve Requirement; (c) to the Administrative
Expenses Account of the Special Tax Fund to pay Administrative Expenses to the extent that the
amounts on deposit in the Administrative Expenses Account of the Special Tax Fund are insufficient
to pay Administrative Expenses; or (d) for any other lawful purpose of the District.
The amounts in the Surplus Fund are not pledged to the repayment of the Bonds or the Parity
Bonds and may be used by the District for any lawful purpose. In the event that the District
reasonably expects to use any portion of the moneys in the Surplus Fund to pay debt service on any
Outstanding Bonds or Parity Bonds, the District will notify the Trustee in a Certificate of an
Authorized Representative and the Trustee will segregate such amount into a separate subaccount
and the moneys on deposit in such subaccount of the Surplus Fund shall be invested at the written
direction of the District in Permitted Investments the interest on which is excludable from gross
income under Section 103 of the Code (other than bonds the interest on which is a tax preference
item for purposes of computing the alternative minimum tax of individuals and corporations under
the Code) or in Permitted Investments at a yield not in excess of the yield on the issue of Bonds or
Parity Bonds to which such amounts are to be applied, unless, in the opinion of Bond Counsel,
investment at a higher yield will not adversely affect the exclusion from gross income for federal
income tax purposes of interest on the Bonds or any Parity Bonds which were issued on a tax-exempt
basis for federal income tax purposes.
26
Item #23 - AB #22,370 July 26, 2016 Page 124 of 194
Section 3.9. Costs of Issuance Fund. The moneys in the Costs of Issuance Fund shall be
disbursed by the Trustee pursuant to a Certificate of an Authorized Representative of the District, and
any balance therein shall be transferred by the Trustee to the Interest Account as directed in writing
by an Authorized Representative of the District or 90 days following the issuance of the Bonds,
whichever is earlier. The Costs of Issuance Fund shall thereafter be closed.
Section 3.10. Investments. Moneys held in any of the funds, Accounts and subaccounts
under this Indenture shall be invested at the written direction of the District in accordance with the
limitations set forth below only in Permitted Investments which shall be deemed at all times to be a
part of such funds, Accounts and subaccounts. Any loss resulting from such Permitted Investments
shall be credited or charged to the fund, Account or subaccount from which such investment was
made, and any investment earnings on a fund, Account or subaccount shall be applied as follows:
(i) investment earnings on all amounts deposited in the Costs of Issuance Fund, the Special Tax
Fund, the Surplus Fund and the Rebate Fund and each Account therein (other than the Reserve
Account of the Special Tax Fund) shall be deposited in those respective funds and Accounts; and
(ii) investment earnings on all amounts deposited in the Reserve Account shall be deposited therein
to be applied as set forth in Section 3.6. Moneys in the funds, Accounts and subaccounts held under
this Indenture may be invested by the Trustee as directed in writing (filed by the District with the
Trustee two (2) Business Days in advance of the making of the investment), from time to time, in
Permitted Investments subject to the following restrictions:
(a) Moneys in the Costs of Issuance Fund and the Interest Account, the Principal
Account and the Redemption Account of the Special Tax Fund shall be invested only in Permitted
Investments which will by their terms mature, or in the case of an investment agreement are available
for withdrawal without penalty, on such dates so as to ensure the payment of principal of, premium,
if any, and interest on the Bonds and any Parity Bonds as the same become due.
(b) Moneys in the Reserve Account of the Special Tax Fund may be invested only in
Permitted Investments which, taken together, have a weighted average maturity not in excess of five
years; provided that such amounts may be invested in an investment agreement to the later of the
final maturity of the Bonds or any Parity Bonds so long as such amounts may be withdrawn at any
time, without penalty, for application in accordance with Section 3.6; and provided that no such
Permitted Investment of amounts in the Reserve Account allocable to the Bonds or an issue of Parity
Bonds shall mature later than the respective final maturity date of the Bonds or the issue of Parity
Bonds, as applicable.
(c) Moneys in the Rebate Fund shall be invested only in Permitted Investments of the
type described in clause (a) of the definition thereof which by their terms will mature, as nearly as
practicable, on the dates such amounts are needed to be paid to the United States Government
pursuant to Section 3.7, or in Permitted Investments of the type described in clause (g) of the
definition thereof.
(d) In the absence of written investment directions from the District, the Trustee shall
hold such moneys uninvested.
The Trustee shall sell, or present for redemption, any Permitted Investment as directed in
writing by the District whenever it may be necessary to do so in order to provide moneys to meet any
payment or transfer to such funds and Accounts or from such funds and Accounts. For the purpose
of determining at any given time the balance in any such funds and Accounts, any such investments
27
Item #23 - AB #22,370 July 26, 2016 Page 125 of 194
constituting a part of such funds and Accounts shall be valued at their cost, except that amounts in
the Reserve Account shall be valued at the market value thereof at least semiannually on or before
each Interest Payment Date. In making any valuations hereunder, the Trustee may utilize such
computerized securities pricing services as may be available to it, including, without limitation, those
available through its regular accounting system, and conclusively rely thereon. Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, the Trustee shall not be responsible for any loss from investments,
sales or transfers undertaken in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture.
The Trustee or an affiliate may act as principal or agent in the making or disposing of any
investment and shall be entitled to its customary fee for such investment. The Trustee may sell, or
present for redemption, any Permitted Investment so purchased whenever it shall be necessary to
provide moneys to meet any required payment, transfer, withdrawal or disbursement from the fund or
account to which such Permitted Investment is credited, and, subject to the provisions of Section 7.4,
the Trustee shall not be liable or responsible for any loss resulting from such investment. For
investment purposes, the Trustee may commingle the funds and accounts established hereunder, but
shall account for each separately.
The District acknowledges that, to the extent that regulations of the Comptroller of the
Currency or other applicable regulatory entity grant the District the right to receive brokerage
confirmations of security transactions as they occur, the District specifically waives receipt of such
confirmations to the extent permitted by law. The Trustee will furnish the District periodic cash
transaction statements which include detail for all investment transactions made by the Trustee
hereunder.

If, during the Fiscal Year immediately preceding one of the redemption dates specified
above, the District purchases Bonds, at least 45 days prior to the redemption date the District shall
notify the Trustee as to the principal amount purchased and the amount of Bonds so purchased shall
be credited at the time of purchase, to the extent of the full principal amount thereof, to reduce such
upcoming Sinking Fund Payment for the Bonds so purchased. All Bonds purchased pursuant to this
subsection shall be cancelled pursuant to Section 1 0.1.
In the event of a partial optional redemption or extraordinary redemption of the Bonds, each
of the remaining Sinking Fund Payments for such Bonds, as described above, will be reduced, as
nearly as practicable, on a pro rata basis, in integral multiples of $5,000, as directed by the District.

The District shall notify the Trustee of any extraordinary prepayment at least 45 days prior to
the Interest Payment Date on which such prepayment shall occur.
(d) The redemption provisions for Parity Bonds shall be set forth in a Supplemental
Indenture.
Section 4.2. Selection of Bonds and Parity Bonds for Redemption. If less than all of
the Bonds or Parity Bonds Outstanding are to be redeemed, the portion of any Bond or Parity Bond
of a denomination of more than $5,000 to be redeemed shall be in the principal amount of $5,000 or
an integral multiple thereof. The Trustee shall promptly notify the District in writing of the Bonds or
Parity Bonds, or portions thereof, selected for redemption.
Section 4.3. Notice of Redemption. When Bonds or Parity Bonds are due for redemption
under Section 4.1 or the terms of a Supplemental Indenture, respectively, the Trustee shall give
29
Item #23 - AB #22,370 July 26, 2016 Page 127 of 194
notice, in the name of the District, of the redemption of such Bonds or Parity Bonds; provided,
however, that a notice of a redemption to be made from other than from Sinking Fund Payments shall
be conditioned on there being on deposit on the redemption date sufficient money to pay the
redemption price of the Bonds or Parity Bonds to be redeemed. Such notice of redemption shall:
(a) specify the CUSIP numbers (if any), the bond numbers and the maturity date or dates of the
Bonds or Parity Bonds selected for redemption, except that where all of the Bonds or all of an issue
of Parity Bonds are subject to redemption, or all of the Bonds or Parity Bonds of one maturity, are to
be redeemed, the bond numbers of such issue need not be specified; (b) state the date fixed for
redemption and surrender of the Bonds or Parity Bonds to be redeemed; (c) state the redemption
price; (d) state the place or places where the Bonds or Parity Bonds are to be redeemed; (e) in the
case of Bonds or Parity Bonds to be redeemed only in part, state the portion of such Bond or Parity
Bond that is to be redeemed; (f) state the date of issue of the Bonds or Parity Bonds as originally
issued; (g) state the rate of interest borne by each Bond or Parity Bond being redeemed; and (h) state
any other descriptive information needed to identify accurately the Bonds or Parity Bonds being
redeemed as shall be specified by the Trustee. Such notice shall further state that on the date fixed
for redemption, there shall become due and payable on each Bond, Parity Bond or portion thereof
called for redemption, the principal thereof, together with any premium, and interest accrued to the
redemption date, and that from and after such date, interest thereon shall cease to accrue and be
payable. At least 30 days but no more than 45 days prior to the redemption date, the Trustee shall
mail a copy of such notice, by first class mail, postage prepaid, to the respective Owners thereof at
their addresses appearing on the Bond Register. The actual receipt by the Owner of any Bond or
Parity Bond or the original purchaser of any Bond or Parity Bond of notice of such redemption shall
not be a condition precedent to redemption, and neither the failure to receive nor any defect in such
notice shall affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of such Bonds or Parity Bonds,
or the cessation of interest on the redemption date. A certificate by the Trustee that notice of such
redemption has been given as herein provided shall be conclusive as against all parties, and the
Owner shall not be entitled to show that he or she failed to receive notice of such redemption.
In addition to the foregoing notice, further notice shall be given by the Trustee as set out
below, but no defect in said further notice nor any failure to give all or any portion of such further
notice shall in any manner defeat the effectiveness of a call for redemption if notice thereof is given
as above prescribed. In addition to providing any notice of redemption to the Bondowners, if the
Bonds are held in book-entry form, each further notice of redemption shall be sent not later than the
date that notice of redemption is mailed to the Bondowners by registered or certified mail or
overnight delivery service to the Depository and by electronic notice to the Municipal Securities
Rulemaking Board.
Upon the payment of the redemption price of any Bonds and Parity Bonds being redeemed,
each check or other transfer of funds issued for such purpose shall to the extent practicable bear the
CUSIP number (if any) identifying, by issue and maturity, the Bonds and Parity Bonds being
redeemed with the proceeds of such check or other transfer.
With respect to any notice of optional redemption or extraordinary redemption of Bonds or
Parity Bonds, such notice shall state that such redemption shall be conditional upon the receipt by the
Trustee on or prior to the date fixed for such redemption of moneys sufficient to pay the principal of,
premium, if any, and interest on such Bonds or Parity Bonds to be redeemed and that, if such moneys
shall not have been so received, said notice shall be of no force and effect and the Trustee shall not
be required to redeem such Bonds or Parity Bonds. In the event that such notice of redemption
contains such a condition and such moneys are not so received, the redemption shall not be made,
30
Item #23 - AB #22,370 July 26, 2016 Page 128 of 194
and the Trustee shall within a reasonable time thereafter give notice, in the manner in which the
notice of redemption was given, that such moneys were not so received.
Section 4.4. Partial Redemption of Bonds or Parity Bonds. Upon surrender by the
Owner of a Bond, at the option of such Owner, for mandatory redemption at the Principal Office of
the Trustee, payment of such mandatory redemption of the principal amount of a Bond will be paid
to such Owner. Upon surrender of any Bond or Parity Bond to be redeemed in part only, the District
shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Bondowner, at the expense of the
District, a new Bond or Bonds or a new Parity Bond or Parity Bonds of authorized denominations
equal in aggregate principal amount to the unredeemed portion of the Bonds surrendered, with the
same interest rate and the same maturity or, in the case of surrender of a Parity Bond, a new Parity
Bond or Parity Bonds subject to the foregoing limitations. Such mandatory redemption shall be valid
upon payment of the amount thereby required to be paid to such Owner, and the District and the
Trustee shall be released and discharged from all liability to the extent of such payment.
Section 4.5. Effect of Notice and Availability of Redemption Money. Notice of
redemption having been duly given, as provided in Section 4.3, and the amount necessary for the
redemption having been made available for that purpose and being available therefor on the date
fixed for such redemption:
(a) the Bonds and Parity Bonds, or portions thereof, designated for redemption shall, on
the date fixed for redemption, become due and payable at the redemption price thereof as provided in
this Indenture or in any Supplemental Indenture with respect to any Parity Bonds, anything in this
Indenture or in the Bonds or the Parity Bonds to the contrary notwithstanding;
(b) upon presentation and surrender thereof at the Principal Office of the Trustee, the
redemption price of such Bonds and Parity Bonds shall be paid to the Owners thereof;
(c) as of the redemption date, the Bonds or the Parity Bonds, or portions thereof so
designated for redemption shall be deemed to be no longer Outstanding and such Bonds or Parity
Bonds, or portions thereof, shall cease to bear further interest; and
(d) as of the date fixed for redemption, no Owner of any of the Bonds, Parity Bonds or
portions thereof so designated for redemption shall be entitled to any of the benefits of this Indenture
or any Supplemental Indenture, or to any other rights, except with respect to payment of the
redemption price and interest accrued to the redemption date from the amounts so made available.
ARTICLE V
COVENANTS AND WARRANTY
Section 5.1. Security. The District shall preserve and protect the security pledged
hereunder to the Bonds and any Parity Bonds against all claims and demands of all persons.
Section 5.2. Covenants. So long as any of the Bonds or Parity Bonds issued hereunder
are Outstanding and unpaid, the District makes the following covenants with the Bondowners under
the provisions of the Act and this Indenture (to be performed by the District or its proper officers,
agents or employees), which covenants are necessary and desirable to secure the Bonds and Parity
Bonds and tend to make them more marketable; provided, however, that said covenants do not
31
Item #23 - AB #22,370 July 26, 2016 Page 129 of 194
require the District to expend any funds or moneys other than the Special Taxes and other amounts
deposited to the Special Tax Fund:
(a) Punctual Payment; Against Encumbrances. The District covenants that it will receive
all Special Taxes in trust for the Owners and will instruct the City Treasurer to deposit all Special
Taxes with the Trustee immediately upon their apportionment to the District, and the District shall
have no beneficial right or interest in the amounts so deposited except as provided by this Indenture.
All such Special Taxes shall be disbursed, allocated and applied solely to the uses and purposes set
forth herein, and shall be accounted for separately and apart from all other money, funds, accounts or
other resources of the District.
The District covenants that it will duly and punctually pay or cause to be paid the principal of
and interest on every Bond and Parity Bond issued hereunder, together with the premium, if any,
thereon on the date, at the place and in the manner set forth in the Bonds and the Parity Bonds and in
accordance with this Indenture to the extent that Net Taxes and other amounts pledged hereunder are
available therefor, and that the payments into the funds and Accounts created hereunder will be
made, all in strict conformity with the terms of the Bonds, any Parity Bonds, this Indenture and any
Supplemental Indenture, and that it will faithfully observe and perform all of the conditions,
covenants and requirements of this Indenture and all Supplemental Indentures and of the Bonds and
any Parity Bonds issued hereunder.
The District will not mortgage or otherwise encumber, pledge or place any charge upon any
of the Net Taxes except as provided in this Indenture, and will not issue any obligation or security
having a lien or charge upon the Net Taxes superior to or on a parity with the Bonds, other than
Parity Bonds. Nothing herein shall prevent the District from issuing or incurring indebtedness that is
payable from a pledge of Net Taxes which is subordinate in all respects to the pledge of Net Taxes to
repay the Bonds and the Parity Bonds.
(b) Levy of Special Tax. Beginning in Fiscal Year 2016-17 and continuing so long as
any Bonds or Parity Bonds issued under this Indenture are Outstanding, the legislative body of the
District covenants to levy the Special Tax in an amount sufficient, together with other amounts on
deposit in the Special Tax Fund and available for such purpose, to pay: (i) the principal of and
interest on the Bonds and any Parity Bonds when due; (ii) the Administrative Expenses; and (iii) any
amounts required to replenish the Reserve Account of the Special Tax Fund to the Reserve
Requirement. The District further covenants that it will take no actions that would discontinue or
cause the discontinuance of the Special Tax levy or the District's authority to levy the Special Tax
for so long as the Bonds and any Parity Bonds are Outstanding.
(c) Commence Foreclosure Proceedings. The District covenants for the benefit of the
Owners of the Bonds and any Parity Bonds that it will: (i) commence judicial foreclosure
proceedings against parcels with delinquent Special Taxes in excess of $10,000 by the October 1
following the close of each Fiscal Year in which such Special Taxes were due; (ii) commence
judicial foreclosure proceedings against all parcels with delinquent Special Taxes by the October 1
following the close of each Fiscal Year in which it receives Special Taxes in an amount which is less
than 95% of the total Special Tax levied and the amount on deposit in the Reserve Account is at less
than the Reserve Requirement; and (iii) diligently pursue such foreclosure proceedings until the
delinquent Special Taxes are paid.
32
Item #23 - AB #22,370 July 26, 2016 Page 130 of 194
The District covenants that it will deposit the net proceeds of any foreclosure to the Special
Tax Fund and will apply such proceeds remaining after the payment of Administrative Expenses to
make current payments of principal of and interest on the Bonds and any Parity Bonds, to bring the
amount on deposit in the Reserve Account up to the Reserve Requirement and to pay any delinquent
installments of principal or interest due on the Bonds and any Parity Bonds.
(d) Payment of Claims. The District will pay and discharge any and all lawful claims for
labor, materials or supplies which, if unpaid, might become a lien or charge upon the Net Taxes or
other funds in the Special Tax Fund (other than the Administrative Expenses Account therein), or
which might impair the security of the Bonds or any Parity Bonds then Outstanding; provided,
however, that nothing herein contained shall require the District to make any such payments so long
as the District in good faith shall contest the validity of any such claims.
(e) Books and Accounts. The District will keep proper books of records and accounts,
separate from all other records and accounts of the District, in which complete and correct entries
shall be made of all transactions relating to the Project, the levy of the Special Tax and the deposits
to the Special Tax Fund. Such books of records and accounts shall at all times during business hours
be subject to the inspection of the Trustee, the Owners of not less than 10% of the principal amount
of the Bonds or the Owners of not less than 10% of any issue of Parity Bonds then Outstanding or
their representatives authorized in writing.
(f) Federal Tax Covenants. Notwithstanding any other provtsiOn of this Indenture,
absent an opinion of Bond Counsel that the exclusion from gross income of interest on the Bonds and
any Parity Bonds issued on a tax-exempt basis for federal income tax purposes will not be adversely
affected for federal income tax purposes, the District covenants to comply with all applicable
requirements of the Code necessary to preserve such exclusion from gross income and specifically
covenants, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, as follows:
(1) Private Activity. The District will take no action or refrain from taking any
action or make any use of the proceeds of the Bonds or any Parity Bonds or of any other moneys or
property which would cause the Bonds or any Parity Bonds issued on a tax-exempt basis for federal
income tax purposes to be "private activity bonds" within the meaning of Section 141 of the Code;
(2) Arbitrage. The District will make no use ofthe proceeds of the Bonds or any
Parity Bonds or of any other amounts or property, regardless of the source, or take any action or
refrain from taking any action which will cause the Bonds or any Parity Bonds issued on a tax-
exempt basis for federal income tax purposes to be "arbitrage bonds" within the meaning of
Section 148 of the Code;
(3) Federal Guaranty. The District will make no use of the proceeds of the Bonds
or any Parity Bonds or take or omit to take any action that would cause the Bonds or any Parity
Bonds issued on a tax-exempt basis for federal income tax purposes to be "federally guaranteed"
within the meaning of Section 149(b) of the Code;
( 4) Information Reporting. The District will take or cause to be taken all
necessary action to comply with the informational reporting requirement of Section 149(e) of the
Code;
33
Item #23 - AB #22,370 July 26, 2016 Page 131 of 194
(5) Hedge Bonds. The District will make no use ofthe proceeds of the Bonds or
any Parity Bonds or any other amounts or property, regardless of the source, or take any action or
refrain from taking any action that would cause the Bonds or any Parity Bonds issued on a tax-
exempt basis for federal income tax purposes to be considered "hedge bonds" within the meaning of
Section 149(g) of the Code unless the District takes all necessary action to assure compliance with
the requirements of Section 149(g) of the Code to maintain the exclusion from gross income for
federal income tax purposes of interest on the Bonds and any applicable Parity Bonds;
( 6) Miscellaneous. The District will take no action or refrain from taking any
action inconsistent with its expectations stated in the Tax Certificate executed on the Delivery Date
by the District in connection with the Bonds and any issue of Parity Bonds and will comply with the
covenants and requirements stated therein and incorporated by reference herein;
(7) Other Tax-Exempt Issues. The District will not use proceeds of other
tax-exempt securities to redeem any Bonds or Parity Bonds without first obtaining the written
opinion of Bond Counsel that doing so will not impair the exclusion from gross income for federal
income tax purposes of interest on the Bonds and any Parity Bonds issued on a tax-exempt basis; and
(8) Subsequent Opinions. If the District obtains a subsequent opinion of Bond
Counsel other than Stradling Y occa Carlson & Rauth, a Professional Corporation ("SYCR"), where
such opinion is required in connection with a change or amendment to this Indenture or the
procedures set forth in the Tax Certificate, it will obtain an opinion substantially to the effect
originally delivered by SYCR that interest on the Bonds and Parity Bonds which are the subject of
such change or amendment is excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes.
(g) Reduction of Maximum Special Taxes. The District hereby finds and determines
that, historically, delinquencies in the payment of special taxes authorized pursuant to the Act in
community facilities districts in Southern California have from time to time been at levels that
required the levy of special taxes at the maximum authorized rates in order to make timely payment
of principal of and interest on the outstanding indebtedness of such community facilities districts.
For this reason, the District hereby determines that a reduction in the maximum Special Tax rates
authorized to be levied on parcels in the District below the levels provided in this Section 5.2(g)
would interfere with the timely retirement of the Bonds and Parity Bonds. The District determines it
to be necessary in order to preserve the security for the Bonds and Parity Bonds to covenant, and, to
the maximum extent that the law permits it to do so, the District hereby does covenant, that it shall
not initiate proceedings to reduce the maximum Special Tax rates for the District, unless, in
connection therewith: (i) the District receives a certificate from one or more Independent Financial
Consultants which, when taken together, certify that, on the basis of the parcels of land and
improvements existing in the District as of the July 1 preceding the reduction, the maximum amount
ofthe Special Tax which may be levied on then-existing Taxable Property (as such term is defined in
the Rate and Method then in effect in the District) in each Bond Year for any Bonds and Parity
Bonds Outstanding will equal at least II 0% of the sum of the estimated Administrative Expenses and
gross debt service in each Bond Year on all Bonds and Parity Bonds to remain Outstanding after the
reduction is approved; (ii) the District finds that any reduction made under such conditions will not
adversely affect the interests of the Owners of the Bonds and Parity Bonds; and (iii) the District is
not delinquent in the payment of the principal of or interest on the Bonds or any Parity Bonds. For
purposes of estimating Administrative Expenses for the foregoing calculation, the Independent
Financial Consultants shall compute the Administrative Expenses for the current Fiscal Year and
escalate that amount by two percent (2%) in each subsequent Fiscal Year.
34
Item #23 - AB #22,370 July 26, 2016 Page 132 of 194
(h) Covenants to Defend. The District covenants that, in the event that any initiative is
adopted by the qualified electors in the District which purports to reduce the maximum Special Tax
below the levels specified in Section 5.2(g) above or to limit the power of the District to levy the
Special Taxes for the purposes set forth in Section 5.2(b) above, it will commence and pursue legal
action in order to preserve its ability to comply with such covenants.
(i) Limitation on Right to Tender Bonds. The District hereby covenants that it will not
adopt any policy pursuant to Section 53341.1 of the Act permitting the tender of Bonds or Parity
Bonds in full payment or partial payment of any Special Taxes unless the District shall have first
received a certificate from an Independent Financial Consultant that the acceptance of such a tender
will not result in the District having insufficient Special Tax revenues to pay the principal of and
interest on the Bonds and Parity Bonds when due.
U) Continuing Disclosures. The District covenants to comply with the terms of the
Continuing Disclosure Agreement and with the terms of any continuing disclosure agreement
executed by the District with respect to any Parity Bonds in order to assist the underwriter thereof in
complying with Rule 15(c)2-12 adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission.
(k) Further Assurances. The District shall make, execute and deliver any and all such
further agreements, instruments and assurances as may be reasonably necessary or proper to carry out
the intention or to facilitate the performance of this Indenture and for the better assuring and
confirming unto the Owners of the Bonds and any Parity Bonds of the rights and benefits provided in
this Indenture.
ARTICLE VI
AMENDMENTS TO INDENTURE
Section 6.1. Supplemental Indentures or Orders Not Requiring Bondowner Consent.
The District may from time to time, and at any time, without notice to or consent of any of the
Bondowners, adopt Supplemental Indentures for any of the following purposes:
(a) to cure any ambiguity, to correct or supplement any provisions herein which may be
inconsistent with any other provision herein, or to make any other provision with respect to matters
or questions arising under this Indenture or in any additional resolution or order, provided that such
action is not materially adverse to the interests of the Bondowners;
(b) to add to the covenants and agreements of and the limitations and the restrictions
upon the District contained in this Indenture, other covenants, agreements, limitations and restrictions
to be observed by the District which are not contrary to or inconsistent with this Indenture as
theretofore in effect or which further secure Bond or Parity Bond payments;
(c) to provide for the issuance of any Parity Bonds, and to provide the terms and
conditions under which such Parity Bonds may be issued, subject to and in accordance with the
provisions of this Indenture;
(d) to modify, amend or supplement this Indenture in such manner as to permit the
qualification hereof under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended, or any similar federal statute
hereafter in effect, or to comply with the Code or regulations issued thereunder, and to add such other
35
Item #23 - AB #22,370 July 26, 2016 Page 133 of 194
terms, conditions and provisions as may be permitted by said act or similar federal statute, and which
shall not materially adversely affect the interests of the Owners of the Bonds or any Parity Bonds
then Outstanding;
(e) subject to the provisions of Section 5.2(g), to modify, alter or amend the Rate and
Method in any manner so long as such changes do not reduce the maximum Special Taxes that may
be levied in each year on property within Improvement Area 2 of the District to an amount which is
less than 110% of the principal and interest due in each corresponding future Bond Year with respect
to the Bonds and Parity Bonds Outstanding as of the date of such amendment; or
(f) to modify, alter, amend or supplement this Indenture in any other respect which is not
materially adverse to the Bondowners.
Section 6.2. Supplemental Indentures or Orders Requiring Bondowner Consent.
Exclusive of the Supplemental Indentures described in Section 6.1, the Owners of not less than a
majority in aggregate principal amount of the Bonds and Parity Bonds Outstanding shall have the
right to consent to and approve the adoption by the District of such Supplemental Indentures as shall
be deemed necessary or desirable by the District for the purpose of waiving, modifying, altering,
amending, adding to or rescinding, in any particular, any of the terms or provisions contained in this
Indenture; provided, however, that nothing herein shall permit, or be construed as permitting: (a) an
extension of the maturity date of the principal, or the payment date of interest on, any Bond or Parity
Bond; (b) a reduction in the principal amount of, or redemption premium on, any Bond or Parity
Bond or the rate of interest thereon; (c) a preference or priority of any Bond or Parity Bond over any
other Bond or Parity Bond; or (d) a reduction in the aggregate principal amount of the Bonds and
Parity Bonds the Owners of which are required to consent to such Supplemental Indenture, without
the consent of the Owners of all Bonds and Parity Bonds then Outstanding.
If at any time the District shall desire to adopt a Supplemental Indenture, which pursuant to
the terms of this Section shall require the consent of the Bondowners, the District shall so notify the
Trustee and shall deliver to the Trustee a copy of the proposed Supplemental Indenture. The Trustee
shall, at the expense of the District, cause notice of the proposed Supplemental Indenture to be
mailed, by first class mail, postage prepaid, to all Bondowners at their addresses as they appear in the
Bond Register. Such notice shall briefly set forth the nature ofthe proposed Supplemental Indenture
and shall state that a copy thereof is on file at the Principal Office of the Trustee for inspection by all
Bondowners. The failure of any Bondowners to receive such notice shall not affect the validity of
such Supplemental Indenture when consented to and approved by the Owners of not less than a
majority in aggregate principal amount of the Bonds and Parity Bonds Outstanding as required by
this Section. Whenever at any time within one year after the date of the first mailing of such notice,
the Trustee shall receive an instrument or instruments purporting to be executed by the Owners of not
less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Bonds and Parity Bonds Outstanding, which
instrument or instruments shall refer to the proposed Supplemental Indenture described in such
notice, and shall specifically consent to and approve the adoption thereof by the District substantially
in the form of the copy referred to in such notice as on file with the Trustee, such proposed
Supplemental Indenture, when duly adopted by the District, shall thereafter become a part of the
proceedings for the issuance of the Bonds and any Parity Bonds. In determining whether the Owners
of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Bonds and Parity Bonds have consented to the
adoption of any Supplemental Indenture, Bonds or Parity Bonds that are owned by the District, or by
any person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under the direct or indirect common
36
Item #23 - AB #22,370 July 26, 2016 Page 134 of 194
control with the District, shall be disregarded and shall be treated as though they were not
Outstanding for the purpose of any such determination.
Upon the adoption of any Supplemental Indenture and the receipt of consent to any such
Supplemental Indenture from the Owners of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of
the Outstanding Bonds and Parity Bonds in instances where such consent is required pursuant to the
provisions of this Section, this Indenture shall be, and shall be deemed to be, modified and amended
in accordance therewith, and the respective rights, duties and obligations under this Indenture of the
District and all Owners of Outstanding Bonds and Parity Bonds shall thereafter be determined,
exercised and enforced hereunder, subject in all respects to such modifications and amendments.
Section 6.3. Notation of Bonds or Parity Bonds; Delivery of Amended Bonds or
Parity Bonds. After the effective date of any action taken as hereinabove provided, the District may
determine that the Bonds or any Parity Bonds may bear a notation, by endorsement in form approved
by the District, as to such action, and in that case upon demand of the Owner of any Outstanding
Bond or Parity Bond at such effective date and presentation of such Owner's Bond or Parity Bond for
the purpose at the Principal Office of the Trustee or at such additional offices as the Trustee may
select and designate for that purpose, a suitable notation as to such action shall be made on such
Bonds or Parity Bonds. If the District shall so determine, new Bonds or Parity Bonds so modified as,
in the opinion of the District, shall be necessary to conform to such action shall be prepared and
executed, and in that case upon demand of the Owner of any Outstanding Bond or Parity Bond at
such effective date such new Bonds or Parity Bonds shall be exchanged at the Principal Office of the
Trustee or at such additional offices as the Trustee may select and designate for that purpose, without
cost to each Owner of Outstanding Bonds or Parity Bonds, upon surrender of such Outstanding
Bonds or Parity Bonds.
In executing, or accepting the additional trusts created by any Supplemental Indenture
permitted by this Article or the modification thereby of the trusts created by this Indenture, the
Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and shall be fully protected in relying upon, an opinion of counsel
stating that the execution of such supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture
and complies with the terms hereof. The Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into any
such Supplemental Indenture which affects the Trustee's own rights, duties or immunities under this
Indenture or otherwise.
ARTICLE VII
TRUSTEE
Section 7.1. Trustee. The Bank ofNew York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., shall be the
Trustee for the Bonds and any Parity Bonds unless and until another Trustee is appointed by the
District hereunder. The District may, at any time, appoint a successor Trustee satisfying the
requirements of Section 7.2 for the purpose of receiving all money that the District is required to
deposit with the Trustee hereunder and to allocate, use and apply the same as provided in this
Indenture.
The Trustee is hereby authorized to and shall mail by first class mail, postage prepaid, or wire
transfer in accordance with Section 2.5, interest payments to the Bondowners, to select Bonds and
Parity Bonds for redemption, and to maintain the Bond Register. The Trustee is hereby authorized to

Item #23 - AB #22,370 July 26, 2016 Page 135 of 194
presented to it for payment at maturity or on call and redemption, to provide for the registration of
transfer and exchange of Bonds and Parity Bonds presented to it for such purposes, to provide for the
cancellation of Bonds and Parity Bonds and to provide for the authentication of Bonds and Parity
Bonds, and shall perform all other duties assigned to or imposed on it as provided in this Indenture.
The Trustee shall keep accurate records of all funds administered by it and all Bonds and Parity
Bonds paid, discharged and cancelled by it.
The Trustee is hereby authorized to redeem the Bonds and Parity Bonds when duly presented
for payment at maturity, or on redemption prior to maturity. The Trustee shall cancel all Bonds and
Parity Bonds upon payment thereof in accordance with the provisions of Section 1 0.1.
The District shall from time to time, subject to any agreement between the District and the
Trustee then in force, pay to the Trustee compensation for its services, reimburse the Trustee for all
of its advances and expenditures, including, but not limited to, advances to and fees and expenses of
independent accountants or counsel employed by it in the exercise and performance of its powers and
duties hereunder, and indemnify and save the Trustee, its officers, directors, employees and agents,
harmless against costs, claims, expenses and liabilities, including, without limitation, fees and
expenses of its attorneys, not arising from its own negligence or willful misconduct which it may
incur in the exercise and performance of its powers and duties hereunder. The foregoing obligation
of the District to indemnify the Trustee shall survive the removal or resignation of the Trustee or the
discharge of the Bonds.
Section 7.2. Removal of Trustee. The District may at any time at its sole discretion, and
shall at the direction of a majority of the Owners, remove the Trustee initially appointed, and any
successor thereto, by delivering to the Trustee a 30-day written notice of its decision to remove the
Trustee. The District shall appoint a successor or successors thereto, provided that any such
successor shall be a bank, national banking association or trust company having a combined capital
(exclusive of borrowed capital) and surplus of at least $100,000,000, and subject to supervision or
examination by federal or state authority. If any bank, national banking association or trust company
appointed as a successor publishes a report of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the
requirements of any supervising or examining authority above referred to, then for the purposes of
this Section the combined capital and surplus of such bank, national banking association or trust
company shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report
of condition so published. Any removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor Trustee shall
become effective only upon acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee and notice being
sent by the successor Trustee to the Bondowners of the successor Trustee's identity and address.
Section 7.3. Resignation of Trustee. The Trustee may at any time resign by giving
written notice to the District and by giving to the Owners notice of such resignation, which notice
shall be mailed to the Owners at their addresses appearing in the registration books at the Principal
Office of the Trustee. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the District shall promptly appoint
a successor Trustee satisfying the criteria in Section 7.2 by an instrument in writing. Any resignation
or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor Trustee shall become effective only upon
acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee. If no successor Trustee shall have been
appointed and have accepted appointment within 45 days of giving notice of removal or notice of
resignation as aforesaid, the resigning Trustee or any Bondowner (on behalf of itself and all other
Bondowners) may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor
Trustee, and such court may thereupon, after such notice (if any) as it may deem proper, appoint such
successor Trustee.

Section 7.4. Liability of Trustee. The recitals of fact and all promises, covenants and
agreements contained herein and in the Bonds and any Parity Bonds shall be taken as statements,
promises, covenants and agreements of the District, and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for the
correctness of the same and makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this
Indenture, the Bonds or any Parity Bonds, and shall incur no responsibility in respect thereof, other
than in connection with its duties or obligations specifically set forth herein, in the Bonds and any
Parity Bonds, or in the certificate of authentication assigned to or imposed .upon the Trustee. The
Trustee shall be under no responsibility or duty with respect to the issuance of the Bonds or any
Parity Bonds for value. The Trustee shall not be liable in connection with the performance of its
duties hereunder, except for its own negligence or willful misconduct.
The Trustee shall be protected in acting upon any notice, resolution, request, consent, order,
certificate, report, Bond, Parity Bond, facsimile transmission, electronic mail or other paper or
document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or
parties. The Trustee may consult with counsel, who may be counsel to the District, with regard to
legal questions, and the opinion of such counsel shall be full and complete authorization and
protection in respect of any action taken or suffered hereunder in good faith and in accordance
therewith.
The Trustee shall not be bound to recognize any person as the Owner of a Bond or Parity
Bond unless and until such Bond or Parity Bond is submitted for inspection, if required, and title
thereto is satisfactorily established, if disputed.
Whenever in the administration of its duties under this Indenture the Trustee shall deem it
necessary or desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking or suffering any action
hereunder, such matter (unless other evidence in respect thereof is specifically prescribed herein)
may, in the absence of bad faith on the part of the Trustee, be deemed to be conclusively proved and
established by a written certificate of the District, and such certificate shall be full warrant to the
Trustee for any action taken or suffered under the provisions of this Indenture upon the faith thereof,
but in its discretion the Trustee may, in lieu thereof, accept other evidence of such matter or may
require such additional evidence as to it may seem reasonable.
The Trustee shall have no duty or obligation whatsoever to enforce the collection of Special
Taxes or other funds to be deposited with it hereunder, or as to the correctness of any amounts
received, but its liability shall be limited to the proper accounting for such funds as it shall actually
receive. No provision in this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or
otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the
exercise of its rights or powers.
The Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any default or Event of Default until
an officer at the Trustee's corporate trust office who is responsible for the administration of its duties
hereunder shall have actual knowledge thereof or the Trustee shall have received written notice
thereof at its corporate trust office.
The Trustee shall not be considered in breach of or in default in its obligations hereunder or

arbitration involving a party or others relating to zoning or other governmental action or inaction
pertaining to the Project, malicious mischief, condemnation, and unusually severe weather or delays
of suppliers or subcontractors due to such causes or any similar event and/or occurrences beyond the
control ofthe Trustee.
The Trustee shall have the right to accept and act upon instructions, including funds transfer
instructions ("Instructions") given pursuant to this Indenture and delivered using Electronic Means.
("Electronic Means" shall mean the following communications methods: e-mail, facsimile
transmission, secure electronic transmission containing applicable authorization codes, passwords
and/or authentication keys issued by the Trustee, or another method or system specified by the
Trustee as available for use in connection with its services hereunder). The District shall provide to
the Trustee an incumbency certificate listing officers with the authority to provide such Instructions
("Authorized Officers") and containing specimen signatures of such Authorized Officers, which
incumbency certificate shall be amended by the District whenever a person is to be added or deleted
from the listing. If the District elects to give the Trustee Instructions using Electronic Means and the
Trustee in its discretion elects to act upon such Instructions, the Trustee's understanding of such
Instructions shall be deemed controlling. The District understands and agrees that the Trustee cannot
determine the identity of the actual sender of such Instructions and that the Trustee shall conclusively
presume that directions that purport to have been sent by an Authorized Officer listed on the
incumbency certificate provided to the Trustee have been sent by such Authorized Officer. The
District shall be responsible for ensuring that only Authorized Officers transmit such Instructions to
the Trustee and that the District and all Authorized Officers are solely responsible to safeguard the
use and confidentiality of applicable user and authorization codes, passwords and/or authentication
keys upon receipt by the District. The Trustee shall not be liable for any losses, costs or expenses
arising directly or indirectly from the Trustee's reliance upon and compliance with such Instructions
notwithstanding the fact that such directions conflict or are inconsistent with a subsequent written
instruction. The District agrees: (i) to assume all risks arising out of the use of Electronic Means to
submit Instructions to the Trustee, including without limitation the risk of the Trustee acting on
unauthorized Instructions, and the risk of interception and misuse by third parties; (ii) that it is fully
informed of the protections and risks associated with the various methods of transmitting Instructions
to the Trustee and that there may be more secure methods of transmitting Instructions than the
method(s) selected by the District; (iii) that the security procedures (if any) to be followed in
connection with its transmission of Instructions provide to it a commercially reasonable degree of
protection in light of its particular needs and circumstances; and (iv) to notify the Trustee
immediately upon learning of any compromise or unauthorized use of the security procedures.
The permissive right of the Trustee to do things enumerated in this Indenture shall not be
construed as a duty and it shall not be answerable for other than its negligence or willful misconduct.
All immunities, indemnifications and releases from liability granted herein to the Trustee
will extend to the directors, employees, officers and agents thereof.
The Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by
this Indenture at the request, order or direction of any of the Owners pursuant to the provisions of this
Indenture unless such Owners shall have offered to the Trustee reasonable security or indemnity against
the costs, expenses and liabilities which may be incurred therein or thereby.
40
Item #23 - AB #22,370 July 26, 2016 Page 138 of 194
The Trustee shall not be responsible for or accountable to anyone for the subsequent use or
application of any moneys which shall be released or withdrawn in accordance with the provisions
hereof.
The Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereof and perform the duties required
of it hereunder either directly or by or through attorneys or agents, shall not be liable for the acts or
omissions of such attorneys or agents appointed with due care, and shall be entitled to rely on advice
of counsel concerning all matters of trust and its duty hereunder.
The Trustee, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default and after the curing of all Events
of Default which may have occurred, undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are
specifically set forth in this Indenture. In case an Event of Default has occurred (which has not been
cured) the Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use
the same degree of care and skill in their exercise, as a prudent man would exercise or use under the
circumstances in the conduct of his own affairs.
The Trustee shall have no responsibility or liability with respect to any information,
statements or recital in any offering memorandum or other disclosure material prepared or distributed
with respect to the issuance of these Bonds.
The Trustee shall not be required to determine the legality of any investments.
Section 7.5. Merger or Consolidation. Any company into which the Trustee may be
merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated or any company resulting from any
merger, conversion or consolidation to which it shall be a party or any company to which the Trustee
may sell or transfer all or substantially all of its corporate trust business, shall be the successor to the
Trustee without the execution or filing of any paper or further act, anything herein to the contrary
notwithstanding.

within said 30-day period and thereafter diligently and in good faith proceed to cure such default
within a reasonable period of time not to exceed 90 days after such notice.
The Trustee agrees to give notice to the Owners as soon as practicable upon the occurrence of
an Event of Default under subsections (a) or (b) above and within 30 days of the Trustee's
knowledge of an event of default under subsection (c) above.

and Parity Bonds and if indemnified to its satisfaction, the Trustee shall be obligated to exercise such
one or more of the rights and powers conferred by this Article VIII, as the Trustee, being advised by
counsel, shall deem most expedient in the interests of the Owners of the Bonds and Parity Bonds.
No remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Owners is intended to
be exclusive of any other remedy. Every such remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to
every other remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing, at law or in equity or by statute or
otherwise, and may be exercised without exhausting and without regard to any other remedy
conferred by the Act or any other law.
Section 8.3. Application of Revenues and Other Funds After Default. All amounts
received by the Trustee pursuant to any right given or action taken by the Trustee under the
provisions of this Indenture relating to the Bonds and Parity Bonds shall be applied by the Trustee in
the following order upon presentation of the several Bonds and Parity Bonds:
First, to the payment of the fees, costs and expenses of the Trustee in declaring such
Event of Default and in carrying out the provisions of this Article VIII, including reasonable
compensation to its agents, attorneys and counsel, and to the payment of all other outstanding fees

Second, to the payment of the whole amount of interest on and principal of the Bonds
and Parity Bonds then due and unpaid, with interest on overdue installments of principal and interest

42
Item #23 - AB #22,370 July 26, 2016 Page 140 of 194
to pay the full amount of such interest and principal, then such amounts shall be applied in the
following order of priority:
(a) first to the payment of all installments of interest on the Bonds and Parity
Bonds then due and unpaid on a pro rata basis based on the total amount then due and owing,
(b) second, to the payment of all installments of principal, including Sinking
Fund Payments, of the Bonds and Parity Bonds then due and unpaid on a pro rata basis based on the
total amount then due and owing; and
(c) third, to the payment of interest on overdue installments of principal and
interest on the Bonds and Parity Bonds on a pro rata basis based on the total amount then due and

Section 8.4. Power of Trustee to Control Proceedings. In the event that the Trustee,
upon the happening of an Event of Default, shall have taken any action, by judicial proceedings or
otherwise, pursuant to its duties hereunder, whether upon its own discretion or upon the request of
the Owners of twenty-five percent (25%) in aggregate principal amount of the Bonds and Parity
Bonds then Outstanding, it shall have full power, in the exercise of its discretion for the best interests
of the Owners of the Bonds and Parity Bonds, with respect to the continuance, discontinuance,
withdrawal, compromise, settlement or other disposal of such action; provided, however, that the
Trustee shall not, unless there no longer continues an Event of Default, discontinue, withdraw,
compromise or settle, or otherwise dispose of any litigation pending at law or in equity, if at the time
there has been filed with it a written request signed by the Owners of a majority in aggregate
principal amount of the Outstanding Bonds and Parity Bonds hereunder opposing such
discontinuance, withdrawal, compromise, settlement or other such litigation. Any suit, action or

Item #23 - AB #22,370 July 26, 2016 Page 142 of 194
the principal thereof, at the times and in the manner stipulated in this Indenture or any Supplemental
Indenture, then the Owner of such Bond or Parity Bond shall cease to be entitled to the pledge of Net
Taxes, and, other than as set forth below, all covenants, agreements and other obligations of the
District to the Owner of such Bond or Parity Bond under this Indenture and any Supplemental
Indenture relating to such Parity Bond shall thereupon cease, terminate and become void and be
discharged and satisfied. In the event of a defeasance of all Outstanding Bonds and Parity Bonds
pursuant to this Section, the Trustee shall execute and deliver to the District all such instruments as
may be desirable to evidence such discharge and satisfaction, and the Trustee shall pay over or
deliver to the District's general fund all money or securities held by it pursuant to this Indenture
which are not required for the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest due on such
Bonds and Parity Bonds.
Any Outstanding Bond or Parity Bond shall be deemed to have been paid within the meaning
expressed in the first paragraph of this Section if such Bond or Parity Bond is paid in any one or
more of the following ways:
(a) by paying or causing to be paid the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on such
Bond or Parity Bond, as and when the same become due and payable;
(b) by depositing with the Trustee, in trust, at or before maturity, money which, together
with the amounts then on deposit in the Special Tax Fund (exclusive of the Administrative Expenses
Account) and available for such purpose, is fully sufficient to pay the principal of, premium, if any,
and interest on such Bond or Parity Bond, as and when the same shall become due and payable; or
(c) by depositing with the Trustee or another escrow bank appointed by the District, in
trust, Federal Securities, in which the District may lawfully invest its money, in such amount as will
be sufficient, together with the interest to accrue thereon and moneys then on deposit in the Special
Tax Fund (exclusive of the Administrative Expenses Account) and available for such purpose,
together with the interest to accrue thereon, to pay and discharge the principal of, premium, if any,
and interest on such Bond or Parity Bond, as and when the same shall become due and payable.
If paid as provided above, then, at the election of the District, and notwithstanding that any
Outstanding Bonds and Parity Bonds shall not have been surrendered for payment, all obligations of
the District under this Indenture and any Supplemental Indenture with respect to such Bond or Parity
Bond shall cease and terminate, except for the obligation of the Trustee to pay or cause to be paid to
the Owners of any such Bond or Parity Bond not so surrendered and paid, all sums due thereon and
except for the covenants of the District contained in Section 5.2(f) or any covenants in a
Supplemental Indenture relating to compliance with the Code. Notice of such election shall be filed
with the Trustee not less than ten days prior to the proposed defeasance date, or such shorter period
oftime as may be acceptable to the Trustee. In connection with a defeasance under clauses (b) or (c)
above, there shall be provided to the District a verification report from an independent nationally
recognized certified public accountant stating its opinion as to the sufficiency of the moneys or
securities deposited with the Trustee or the escrow bank to pay and discharge the principal of,
premium, if any, and interest on all Outstanding Bonds and Parity Bonds to be defeased in
accordance with this Section, as and when the same shall become due and payable, and an opinion of
Bond Counsel (which may rely upon the opinion of the certified public accountant) to the effect that
the Bonds or Parity Bonds being defeased have been legally defeased in accordance with this
Indenture and any applicable Supplemental Indenture.

Item #23 - AB #22,370 July 26, 2016 Page 143 of 194

Owners of such Bonds and Parity Bonds that have been defeased under this Indenture and any

desirable to evidence such release, discharge and satisfaction. In the case of a defeasance hereunder
of all Outstanding Bonds and Parity Bonds, the Trustee shall pay over or deliver to the District any
funds held by the Trustee at the time of a defeasance that are not required for the purpose of paying
and discharging the principal of or interest on the Bonds and Parity Bonds when due. The Trustee

ESCROW AGREEMENT (2008 BONDS)
THIS ESCROW AGREEMENT (2008 BONDS), dated as of August 1, 2016 (the
"Agreement"), by and between City of Carlsbad Community Facilities District No. 3 (the
"District") and The Bank ofNew York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as escrow agent (the "Escrow
Agent") and as 2008 Fiscal Agent (as such term is defined herein), is entered into in accordance with
Resolution No._ of the District adopted on July 26, 2016 and a Fiscal Agent Agreement, dated as of
January 1, 2008 (the "2008 Fiscal Agent Agreement"), by and between the City of Carlsbad (the
"City"), for and on behalfofthe District, and The Bank ofNew York Mellon Trust Company, N.A.,
formerly known as The Bank ofNew York Trust Company, N.A., as fiscal agent (the "2008 Fiscal
Agent"), to refund the outstanding 2008 Special Tax Bonds (Improvement Area 2) (the "2008
Bonds").
RECITALS
A. Pursuant to the 2008 Fiscal Agent Agreement, the District has previously caused the
2008 Bonds to be issued in the aggregate principal amount of$18,175,000, ofwhich $12,890,000 is
currently outstanding.
B. The District has determined that a portion of the proceeds of the $ __ aggregate
principal amount of the 2016 Special Tax Refunding Bonds (Improvement Area 2) (the "Bonds")
issued pursuant to a Bond Indenture, dated as of August 1, 2016, by and between the District and The
Bank ofNew York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee (the "Trustee"), will be used to provide
a portion of the funds to pay all regularly scheduled payments of principal of and interest on the 2008
Bonds through September 1, 2018, and to pay on September 1, 2018 the principal of the 2008 Bonds
maturing after September 1, 2018, plus interest thereon accrued to such date, without premium (the
"Redemption Price").
C. The District will irrevocably deposit moneys with the Escrow Agent (as permitted by,
in the manner prescribed by and all in accordance with the 2008 Fiscal Agent Agreement), which
moneys will be used to [purchase the securities] that are described on Schedule A (the "Federal
Securities"). Such Federal Securities constitute "Defeasance Securities" that satisfy the criteria set
forth in Section 9.03 of the 2008 Fiscal Agent Agreement, and the principal of and interest on such
Federal Securities when paid will provide money which, together with the moneys deposited with the
Escrow Agent at the same time pursuant to this Agreement, will be fully sufficient to pay and
discharge the 2008 Bonds.
AGREEMENT
SECTION 1. Deposit of Moneys. The District hereby instructs the Escrow Agent to
deposit $ __ received from the Trustee from the net proceeds of the Bonds in the Escrow Fund
established hereunder. The District hereby further instructs the 2008 Fiscal Agent to transfer to the
Escrow Agent$ __ , constituting certain amounts on deposit in the funds and accounts established
under the 2008 Fiscal Agent Agreement, which amount the District instructs the Escrow Agent to
deposit in the Escrow Fund.
The Escrow Agent shall hold all such amounts in irrevocable escrow separate and apart from
other funds of the District and the Escrow Agent in a fund hereby created and established to be
Item #23 - AB #22,370 July 26, 2016 Page 157 of 194
known as the "Escrow Fund" and to be applied solely as provided in this Agreement. The District
represents that the moneys set forth above are at least equal to an amount sufficient to purchase the
Federal Securities listed on Schedule A, and to hold$ __ uninvested as cash.
SECTION 2. Investment of Moneys. The Escrow Agent acknowledges receipt of the
moneys described in Section 1 and agrees immediately to invest such moneys in the Federal
Securities listed on Schedule A and to deposit such Federal Securities in the Escrow Fund. The
Escrow Agent shall be entitled to rely upon the conclusion of Grant Thornton LLP, Minneapolis,
Minnesota (the "Verification Agent"), that the Federal Securities listed on Schedule A mature and
bear interest payable in such amounts and at such times as, together with cash on deposit in the
Escrow Fund, will be sufficient to pay all regularly scheduled payments of principal of and interest
on the 2008 Bonds through September 1, 2018, and to pay on September 1, 2018 the Redemption
Price of the 2008 Bonds maturing after September 1, 2018. [NOTE: VERIFICATION NOT
REQUIRED IF FUNDS NOT INVESTED].
SECTION 3. Investment of Any Remaining Moneys. At the written direction of the
District, the Escrow Agent shall reinvest any other amount of principal and interest, or any portion
thereof, received from the Federal Securities prior to the date on which such payment is required for
the purposes set forth herein, in noncallable Federal Securities maturing not later than the date on
which such payment or portion thereof is required for the purposes set forth in Section 5, at the
written direction of the District, as verified in a report prepared by an independent certified public
accountant or firm of certified public accountants of favorable national reputation experienced in the
refunding of obligations of political subdivisions to the effect that the reinvestment described in said
report will not adversely affect the sufficiency of the amounts of securities, investments and money
in the Escrow Fund to pay all regularly scheduled payments of principal of and interest on the 2008
Bonds through September 1, 2018, and to pay on September 1, 2018 the Redemption Price of the
2008 Bonds maturing after September 1, 2018, and provided that the District has obtained and
delivered to the Escrow Agent an unqualified opinion of Stradling Y occa Carlson & Rauth, a
Professional Corporation, that such reinvestment will not adversely affect the exclusion from gross
income for federal income tax purposes of interest on the 2008 Bonds or the Bonds. Any interest
income resulting from investment or reinvestment of moneys pursuant to this Section 3 which are not
required for the purposes set forth in Section 5, as verified in the letter of the Verification Agent
originally obtained by the District with respect to the refunding of the 2008 Bonds or in any other
report prepared by an independent certified public accountant or firm of certified public accountants
of favorable national reputation experienced in the refunding of tax-exempt obligations of political
subdivisions, shall be paid to the District promptly upon the receipt of such interest income by the
Escrow Agent. The determination of the District as to whether an accountant qualifies under this
Escrow Agreement shall be conclusive.
SECTION 4. Substitution of Securities. Upon the written request of the District, and
subject to the conditions and limitations herein set forth and applicable governmental rules and
regulations, the Escrow Agent shall sell, redeem or otherwise dispose of the Federal Securities,
provided that there are substituted therefor from the proceeds of the Federal Securities other Federal
Securities, but only after the District has obtained and delivered to the Escrow Agent: (i) an
unqualified opinion of Stradling Y occa Carlson & Rauth, a Professional Corporation, to the effect
that the substitution of securities is permitted under the legal documents in effect with respect to the
2008 Bonds and that such reinvestment will not adversely affect the exclusion from gross income for
federal income tax purposes of interest on the 2008 Bonds or the Bonds; and (ii) a report by a firm of
independent certified public accountants to the effect that the reinvestment described in said report
2
Item #23 - AB #22,370 July 26, 2016 Page 158 of 194
will not adversely affect the sufficiency of the amounts of securities, investments and money in the
Escrow Fund to pay all regularly scheduled payments of principal of and interest on the 2008 Bonds
through September 1, 2018, and to pay on September 1, 2018 the Redemption Price of the 2008
Bonds maturing after September 1, 2018. The Escrow Agent shall not be liable or responsible for
any loss resulting from any reinvestment made pursuant to this Agreement and in full compliance
with the provisions hereof.

4
Item #23 - AB #22,370 July 26, 2016 Page 160 of 194
matter may be deemed to be conclusively established by a certificate signed by an officer of the
District.
The District acknowledges that to the extent that regulations of the Comptroller of the
Currency or other applicable regulatory entity grant the District the right to receive brokerage
confirmations of security transactions as they occur, the District specifically waives receipt of such
confirmations to the extent permitted by law. The Escrow Agent will furnish the District with
periodic transaction statements which include detail for all investment transactions made by the
Escrow Agent hereunder; provided that the Escrow Agent is not obligated to provide an accounting
for any fund or account that: (a) has a balance of$0.00; and (b) has not had any activity since the last
reporting date.
The Escrow Agent may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or perform any duties
hereunder either directly or by or through agents, attorneys, custodians or nominees appointed with
due care, and shall not be responsible for any willful misconduct or negligence on the part of any
agent, attorney, custodian or nominee so appointed.
If the Escrow Agent learns that the Department of the Treasury or the Bureau of Public Debt
will not, for any reason, accept a subscription of Federal Securities that is to be submitted pursuant to
this Agreement, the Escrow Agent shall promptly request alternative written investment instructions
from the District with respect to escrowed funds which were to be invested in Federal Securities.
The Escrow Agent shall follow such instructions and, upon the maturity of any such alternative
investment, the Escrow Agent shall hold funds uninvested and without liability for interest until
receipt of further written instructions from the District. In the absence of investment instructions
from the District, the Escrow Agent shall not be responsible for the investment of such funds or
interest thereon. The Escrow Agent may conclusively rely upon the District's selection of an
alternative investment as a determination of the alternative investment's legality and suitability and
shall not be liable for any losses related to the alternative investments or for compliance with any
yield restriction applicable thereto.
The Escrow Agent shall have the right to accept and act upon instructions, including funds
transfer instructions ("Instructions") given pursuant to this Agreement and delivered using
Electronic Means. ("Electronic Means" shall mean the following communications methods: e-mail,
facsimile transmission, secure electronic transmission containing applicable authorization codes,
passwords and/or authentication keys issued by the Escrow Agent, or another method or system
specified by the Escrow Agent as available for use in connection with its services hereunder). The
District shall provide to the Escrow Agent an incumbency certificate listing officers with the
authority to provide such Instructions ("Authorized Officers") and containing specimen signatures
of such Authorized Officers, which incumbency certificate shall be amended by the District
whenever a person is to be added or deleted from the listing. If the District elects to give the Escrow
Agent Instructions using Electronic Means and the Escrow Agent in its discretion elects to act upon
such Instructions, the Escrow Agent's understanding of such Instructions shall be deemed
controlling. The District understands and agrees that the Escrow Agent cannot determine the identity
of the actual sender of such Instructions and that the Escrow Agent shall conclusively presume that
directions that purport to have been sent by an Authorized Officer listed on the incumbency
certificate provided to the Escrow Agent have been sent by such Authorized Officer. The District
shall be responsible for ensuring that only Authorized Officers transmit such Instructions to the
Escrow Agent and that the District and all Authorized Officers are solely responsible to safeguard the
use and confidentiality of applicable user and authorization codes, passwords and/or authentication
5
Item #23 - AB #22,370 July 26, 2016 Page 161 of 194
keys upon receipt by the District. The Escrow Agent shall not be liable for any losses, costs or
expenses arising directly or indirectly from the Escrow Agent's reliance upon and compliance with
such Instructions notwithstanding such directions conflict or are inconsistent with a subsequent
written instruction. The District agrees: (i) to assume all risks arising out of the use of Electronic
Means to submit Instructions to the Escrow Agent, including without limitation the risk of the
Escrow Agent acting on unauthorized Instructions, and the risk of interception and misuse by third
parties; (ii) that it is fully informed of the protections and risks associated with the various methods
of transmitting Instructions to the Escrow Agent and that there may be more secure methods of
transmitting Instructions than the method(s) selected by the District; (iii) that the security procedures
(if any) to be followed in connection with its transmission of Instructions provide to it a
commercially reasonable degree of protection in light of its particular needs and circumstances; and
(iv) to notify the Escrow Agent immediately upon learning of any c.ompromise or unauthorized use
of the security procedures.
No provision of this Agreement shall require the Escrow Agent to expend or risk its own
funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance or exercise of any of its duties
hereunder, or in the exercise of its rights or powers.
SECTION 11. Amendments. This Agreement is made for the benefit of the District and the
owners from time to time of the 2008 Bonds and it shall not be repealed, revoked, altered or amended
without the written consent of all such owners, the Escrow Agent and the District; provided,
however, that the District and the Escrow Agent may, without the consent of, or notice to, such
owners, amend this Agreement or enter into such agreements supplemental to this Agreement as shall
not adversely affect the rights of such owners and as shall not be inconsistent with the terms and
provisions of this Agreement, the Act (as such term is defined in the 2008 Fiscal Agent Agreement),
or the 2008 Fiscal Agent Agreement, for any one or more of the following purposes: (i) to cure any
ambiguity or formal defect or omission in this Agreement; (ii) to grant to, or confer upon, the Escrow
Agent for the benefit of the owners of the 2008 Bonds any additional rights, remedies, powers or
authority that may lawfully be granted to, or conferred upon, such owners or the Escrow Agent; and
(iii) to include under this Agreement additional funds. The Escrow Agent shall be entitled to rely
conclusively upon an unqualified opinion of Stradling Y occa Carlson & Rauth, A Professional
Corporation, with respect to compliance with this Section, including the extent, if any, to which any
change, modification, addition or elimination affects the rights of the owners of the various 2008
Bonds or that any instrument executed hereunder complies with the conditions and provisions of this
Section.
SECTION 12. Notice to Rating Agencies. In the event that this agreement or any provision
thereof is severed, amended or revoked, the Escrow Agent shall provide written notice of such
severance, amendment or revocation to the rating agencies then rating the 2008 Bonds.
SECTION 13. Term. This Agreement shall commence upon its execution and delivery and
shall terminate on the later to occur of either: (i) the date upon which the 2008 Bonds have been paid
in accordance with this Agreement; or (ii) the date upon which no unclaimed moneys remain on
deposit with the Escrow Agent pursuant to Section 5(c) of this Agreement.
SECTION 14. Compensation. The Escrow Agent shall receive its reasonable fees and
expenses as previously agreed to by the Escrow Agent and the District and any other reasonable fees
and expenses of the Escrow Agent approved by the District; provided, however, that under no
circumstances shall the Escrow Agent be entitled to any lien or assert any lien whatsoever on any

moneys or obligations in the Escrow Fund for the payment of fees and expenses for services rendered
or expenses incurred by the Escrow Agent under this Agreement.
SECTION 15. Severability. If any one or more of the covenants or agreements provided in
this Agreement on the part of the District or the Escrow Agent to be performed should be determined
by a court of competent jurisdiction to be contrary to law, such covenants or agreements shall be null
and void and shall be deemed separate from the remaining covenants and agreements contained
herein and shall in no way affect the validity of the remaining provisions of this Agreement.
SECTION 16. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, all or
any of which shall be regarded for all purposes as an original but all of which shall constitute and be
but one and the same instrument.
SECTION 17. Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED UNDER
THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA.
SECTION 18. Insufficient Funds. If at any time the Escrow Agent has actual knowledge
that the moneys and investments in the Escrow Fund, including the anticipated proceeds thereof and
earnings thereon, will not be sufficient to make all payments required by this Agreement, the Escrow
Agent shall notify the District in writing, of the amount thereof and the reason therefor to the extent
known to it. The Escrow Agent shall have no responsibility regarding any such deficiency.
SECTION 19. Notice to District and Escrow Agent. Any notice to or demand upon the
Escrow Agent may be served or presented, and such demand may be made, at the principal corporate
trust office of the Escrow Agent at 400 South Hope Street, Suite 500, Los Angeles, California 90071,
