The Certificates are being issued pursuant to a Trust Agreement, dated as of June 1, 1992 (the "Trust Agreement"), between the City, the Corporation and Bank of America N.T. & S.A., Los Angeles, California (the "Trustee"). Pursuant to the Trust Agreement the Corporation has assigned to the Trustee for the benefit of the Owners of the Certificates its rights (i) to amounts payable by the City under the Lease, and (ii) to enforce its rights upon default by the City. The Certificates are being issued for the purpose of paying the costs of acquiring and improving property to be used as the City's Central Library. The Land, Equipment and Improvements are described herein collectively as the "Project." The Corporation, as lessee, has acquired a leasehold interest in the land and the equipment pursuant to a Site Lease, dated as of June 1, 1992, with the City, as lessor (the "Site Lease").

The City has covenanted in the Lease to take such action as may be necessary to include all such total Lease Payments in its annual budget and has further covenanted to make the necessary annual appropriation for all such Lease Payments. Said covenants on the part of the City are deemed to be and will be construed to be duties imposed by law. The amount of Lease Payments will be abated during any period in which by reason of damage or destruction, there is a substantial interference with the use and occupancy of the Project by the City, except to the extent moneys on deposit in the Debt Service Reserve Fund will be used as a credit for Lease Payments. The 1 obligation of the City to pay Lease Payments does not constitute an obligation of the City for which the City is obligated to levy or pledge any form of taxation. The obligation of the City to make Lease Payments does not constitute a debt of the City within the meaning of any statutory or constitutional debt limitations, and payment will be made only from funds lawfully available therefore.

A policy or policies of title insurance, will be provided, insuring the City's interest in the Project as of the date of issuance of said policy, subject to the terms and conditions of said policy or policies. Sources of Lease Payments The City's obligation under the Lease is based on its authority to acquire and lease property for the common benefit and in furtherance of its public purposes, as described in the California Government Code Section 37350. Lease Payments are an expense, not a debt, of the City. Lease Payments made by the City to the Corporation are payable from any revenues available to the City except certain special fund revenues which are legally restricted as to use.

A portion of each Lease Payment is paid as, and represents the payment of, interest and the balance of each Lease Payment is paid as, and represents the payment of, principal. The Trustee shall calculate the Lease Payments due on any Interest Payment Date as an amount equal to the total principal and interest coming due on the Certificates on such Interest Payment Date estimated as follows: Interest Principal Sinking Fund Interest Total Payment Date Component Payments Component Lease Payment (2) December 1, 1992 $ 233,306.25 $ 233,306.25 (1) June 1, 1993 233,306.25 233,306.25 (1) December 1, 1993 233,306.25 233,306.25 (1) June 1, 1994 $ 130,000.00 233,306.25 363,306.25 December 1, 1994 230,056.25 230,056.25 June 1, 1995 135,000.00 230,056.25 365,056.25 December 1, 1995 226,681.25 226,681.25 June 1, 1996 145,000.00 226,681.25 371,681.25 December 1, 1996 222,875.00 222,875.00 June 1, 1997 150,000.00 222,875.00 372,875.00 December 1, 1997 218,937.50 218,937.50 June 1, 1998 160,000.00 218,937.50 378,937.50 December 1, 1998 214,537.50 214,537.50 June 1, 1999 165,000.00 214,537.50 379,537.50 December 1, 1999 210,000.00 210,000.00 June 1, 2000 175,000.00 210,000.00 385,000.00 December 1, 2000 204,968.75 204,968.75 June 1, 1991 185,000.00 204,968.75 389,968.75 December 1, 2001 199,650.00 199,650.00 June 1, 2002 200,000.00 199,650.00 399,650.00 December 1, 2002 193,650.00 193,650.00 June 1, 2003 210,000.00 193,650.00 403,650.00 December 1, 2003 187,350.00 187,350.00 June 1, 2004 220,000.00 187,350.00 407,350.00 December 1, 2004 180,750.00 180,750.00 June 1, 2005 235,000.00 180,750.00 415,750.00 December 1, 2005 173,406.25 173,406.25 June 1, 2006 $ 250,000.00 173,406.25 423,406.25 December 1, 2006 165,593.75 165,593.75 June 1, 2007 265,000.00 165,593.75 430,593.75 December 1, 2007 157,312.50 157,312.50 June 1, 2008 280,000.00 157,312.50 437,312.50 December 1, 2008 148,562.50 148,562.50 June 1, 2009 300,000.00 148,562.50 448,562.50 December 1, 2009 139,187.50 139,187.50 June 1, 2010 320,000.00 139,187.50 459,187.50 December 1, 2010 129,187.50 129,187.50 June 1, 2011 340,000.00 129,187.50 469,187.50 December 1, 2011 118,137.50 118,137.50 June 1, 2012 360,000.00 118,137.50 478,137.50 December 1, 2012 106,437.50 106,437.50 June 1, 2013 385,000.00 106,437.50 491,437.50 December 1, 2013 93,925.00 93,925.00 June 1, 2014 410,000.00 93,925.00 503,925.00 December 1, 2014 80,600.00 80,600.00 June 1, 2015 435,000.00 80,600.00 515,600.00 December 1, 2015 66,462.50 66,462.50 0 Interest Principal Sinking Fund Interest Total Payment Date Component Payments Component Lease Payment (2) June 1, 2016 $ 465,000.00 $ 66,462.50 $ 531,462.50 December 1, 2016 51,350.00 51,350.00 June 1, 2017 495,000.00 51,350.00 546,350.00 December 1, 2017 35,262.50 35,262.50 June 1, 2018 525,000.00 35,262.50 560,262.50 December 1, 2018 18,200.00 18,200.00 June 1, 2019 560.000.00 18,200.00 578,200.00 Totals $2,110,000.00 $5,390,000.00 $8,479,387.50 $15,979,387.50 (1) To be paid from the Capitalized Interest deposited in the Lease Payment Fund.

SUMMARY OF CERTAIN PROVISIONS OF LEGAL DOCUMENTS The following are brief outlines of certain provisions contained in the Site Lease, the Lease and the Trust Agreement and are not considered full statements pertaining thereto. Reference is made to each for the complete text thereof. Copies of said documents are available for inspection at the offices of the City. SITE LEASE In accordance with the Site Lease dated as June 1, 1992 by and between the City, as lessor and the Corporation, as lessee, the Corporation intends to acquire an interest in the site and to make improvements to the Project, and to lease its interest in the Project to the City pursuant to the Lease. The City entered into the Site Lease with the Corporation to transfer a leasehold interest in the Site solely for the purpose of acquiring, constructing, improving, rehabilitating, remodeling and equipping the Project and leasing back the Site to the City or others pursuant to the Lease. The term of the Site Lease will terminate on the expiration of the Lease, unless the term is sooner terminated, or extended, as provided in the Site Lease. The Corporation will pay annually to the City as and for the rental due thereunder, the sum of $1.00 commencing with the execution and delivery of the Site Lease and continuing to and including the termination of the Lease. LEASE AGREEMENT Construction of the Project. The City, as agent for the Corporation pursuant to the Agency Agreement, will provide for the construction, acquisition and improvement of the Project pursuant to the requirements of the City. Payment of the costs of the Project will be made from the moneys deposited in trust with the City as provided in the Agency Agreement. Upon completion of the construction, acquisition and improvement of the Project, the City shall deliver any excess funds remaining in the Project Fund to the Trustee after the filing of the Certificate of Completion as provided in the Trust Agreement. 7 The Corporation agrees to lease the Project to the City pursuant to the Lease. The term of the Lease shall become effective upon its delivery and subject to earlier termination as provided in the Lease, and shall terminate June 1, 2020 (the "Term") subject to automatic extension, as provided in the Lease, if the Certificates have not been fully paid, or if the Lease Payments were abated at any time except that the Term shall in no event be extended beyond June 1, 2029. Fair Market Rental Value. The Lease Payments when combined with the costs of maintenance, insurance and other costs of the Project have been determined to not exceed the fair market rental value of the Project. Budget. Pursuant to the Lease, the City covenants to take such action as may be necessary to include all Lease Payments, Additional Payments and Reserve Replenishment Rent to the extent known to the City at the time the annual budget is proposed, in each of its annual budgets and to make the necessary annual appropriations for all such Lease Payments, Additional Payments and Reserve Replenishment Rents during the term of the Lease. During the Lease term, the City will furnish to the Trustee by October 1 of each year, a certification by an authorized representative of the City that appropriations sufficient to make Lease Payments, Additional Payments and Reserve Replenishment Rents for that fiscal year are provided for therein. The covenants on the part of the City shall be deemed to be and shall be construed to be duties imposed by law and it shall be the duty of each and every public official of the City to take such action and do such things as are required by law in the performance of the official duty of such officials to enable the City to carry out and perform the covenants and agreements in the Lease agreed to be carried out and performed by the City. The obligation of the City to make Lease Payments, Additional Payments or Reserve Replenishment Rents does not constitute an obligation of the City for which the City is obligated to levy or pledge any form of taxation or for which the City has levied or pledged any form of taxation. Neither the Certificates nor the obligation of the City to make Lease Payments, Additional Payments or Reserve Replenishment Rents constitutes an indebtedness of the City, the State or any of its political subdivisions within the meaning of any constitutional or statutory debt limitation or restriction. Maintenance.• Repairs and Replacement. Throughout the Lease Term, as part of the consideration for the rental of the Project, all repair and maintenance of the Project shall be the responsibility of the City. The City shall pay for or otherwise arrange for the payment of the cost of the repair and replacement of any portion of the Project resulting from ordinary wear and tear or want of care on the part of the City or any sublessee thereof. In exchange for the Lease Payments, the Corporation agrees to provide only the Project. Operating Costs. The City covenants and agrees that it will, during the Lease Term, pay all of the costs incurred by it in operating, maintaining and using the Project. Taxes Assessments and Other Governmental Charges. The City shall pay or cause to be paid all taxes and assessments, including but not limited to utility charges of any type or nature charged to the Corporation or the City as levied, assessed or charged against any portion of the Project or the respective interests or estates therein; provided that with respect to special assessments or other governmental charges that may lawfully be paid in installments over a period of years, the City shall be obligated to pay only such installments as are required to be paid during the Lease Term as and when the same become due. Casualty Insurance. During the construction period, the contractor will assume all risks of damage to the work and materials from fire, earthquake, storm or other causes before the completion and acceptance of the Project. The contractor will at their own expense repair or replace any work or materials damaged or destroyed. N. Upon the completion and acceptance of the Project, the City shall, at its sole cost and expense, obtain and shall maintain a policy or policies of insurance to keep the Project constantly insured against loss or damage by fire, lightning, earthquake, flood and all other risks covered by the extended coverage insurance endorsement then in use in the State of California in an amount equal to the Full Insurable Value thereof (subject to a $100,000 loss deductible clause). The Full Insurable Value of the Project shall be determined from time to time at the request of the Corporation or the City (but not more frequently than once in every three years) by an architect, contractor, appraiser, appraisal company or one of the insurers, to be selected and paid by the City. The insurance required pursuant to the Trust Agreement shall be maintained at the City's sole cost and expense, and shall be maintained with a generally recognized responsible insurance company or companies authorized to do business in the State of California as may be selected by the City. Copies of the insurance policies required under the Trust Agreement, or originals or certificates thereof, each bearing notations evidencing payment of the premiums or other evidence of such payment, shall be delivered by the City to the Corporation. All such policies of insurance and all renewals thereof, shall name the Corporation, the City and the Trustee as insureds as their respective interests may appear, shall contain a provision that such insurance may not be cancelled by the issuer thereof without at least thirty (30) days' advance written notice to the Corporation, the City and Trustee, and shall be payable to the Trustee. In the event of loss or damage to the Project, the Net Proceeds of casualty insurance carried pursuant to the Lease shall be paid to the Trustee and shall be applied as provided in the Lease. Public Liability Insurance. Prior to the commencement of work by the contractor, a certificate of insurance will be provided to the City which shall indicate that public liability and property damage insurance in the amount of not less than $1,000,000 is in effect and will be maintained in full force and effect during the period of construction. The policies must be in a form acceptable to the City and require at least 30 days written notice before any of the policies are cancelled, limited or not renewed. After the completion of the construction and acceptance of the Project, the City shall at its sole cost and expense, maintain or cause to be maintained at all times during the Lease Term general property damage and public liability insurance (including but not limited to coverage for all losses whatsoever arising from the ownership, maintenance, operation or use of any automobile, truck or other motor vehicle), with respect to the Project under which the Corporation, the City and the Trustee shall be named as insureds, properly protecting and indemnifying the Corporation and the Trustee in an amount not less than $1,000,000 for bodily injury (including death) of each person and property damage in one occurance and $5,000,000 in the aggregate. Such public liability and property damage insurance may, however, be in the form of a single limit policy covering all risks in an amount equal to $5,000,000. The policies of said insurance shall contain a provision that such insurance may not be cancelled by the issuer thereof without at least thirty (30) days' advance written notice to the Corporation, the City and the Trustee. Such policies or copies or certificates thereof shall be furnished to the Corporation. In the event of a public liability occurrence, the Net Proceeds of liability insurance carried pursuant to the Lease shall be applied toward the extinguishment or satisfaction of the liability with respect to which such proceeds have been paid.

The City agrees throughout the Lease Term to maintain or cause to be maintained, in connection with the Project, any worker's compensation coverage required by the laws of the State of California (with provision for self-insurance of $100,000). Rental Interruption or Use and Occupancy Insurance. The City shall procure, and maintain through the Lease Term, rental interruption or use and occupancy insurance to cover loss, total or partial, of the use of any structures constituting any part of the Project as a result of any of the hazards covered in the insurance required pursuant to the Lease, in an amount sufficient to pay the L� maximum remaining Lease Payments in any future one-year period thereunder, except that such insurance need be maintained as to the peril of earthquake only if in the opinion of the City such insurance is available at reasonable cost on the open market from reputable insurance companies. The net proceeds of such insurance will be paid to the Trustee and deposited in the Reserve Fund to the extent necessary and then to the Lease Payment Fund, and will be credited towards the payment of the Lease Payments in the order in which such Lease Payments come due and payable. Such insurance may be maintained as part of or in conjunction with any other rental income insurance carried by the City. Title Insurance. The City will provide, at its own expense, a title insurance policy in form satisfactory to the Corporation. Said policy shall insure the City's title to the land constituting the Project subject only to Permitted Encumbrances. All Net Proceeds received under said policy shall be deposited with the Trustee in the Net Proceeds Fund and shall be credited towards the prepayment of the remaining Lease Payments. Blanket Insurance Policies and Self -Insurance. The City may satisfy any of the insurance requirements set forth in the Lease by using blanket policies of insurance, provided that the City complies with each and all of the requirements and specifications of the Lease. The City's current self-insurance program as of the date of the Lease shall be deemed to satisfy all of the insurance requirements set forth in the Lease. Subject to the provisions of the Lease, the City may modify the insurance coverage, including its self-insurance, in whole or in part, for any coverage, taking into account the cost and availability of insurance and the effect of the terms and rates of such insurance upon the City's costs and charges for its services upon filing with the Trustee the City's certificate that the new coverage is equal to or better than that which is being replaced. Option to Prepay Lease Payments. The City will have the option to prepay in whole or in part, the principal amount of Lease Payments relating to the Certificates in the amounts, on the dates and at the prepayment prices provided in the Trust Agreement. Assignment and Subleasing. The City may not assign the Lease or sublease the Project or any portion thereof without the prior written consent of the Corporation and the Trustee, and the Trustee having obtained an opinion from the Bond Counsel determining that such assignment or sublease would not impair the tax exempt nature of the Certificates, provided, however, no assignment of the Lease or subleasing of the Project will release or discharge the City from its duties and obligations under the Lease. Events of Default The following constitute an "event of default" under the Lease: (1) Default in the due and punctual payment of a Lease Payment, or any Reserve Replenishment Rents; (2) Default in the due observance or performance of any other covenant, agreement, obligation or provision of the Lease on the City's part to be observed or performed, and such default shall continue for 30 days after the Corporation or the Trustee has given to the City written notice specifying such default or such longer period as shall be reasonably required to cure such default; provided that (1) the City has commenced such cure within said 30-day period, and (2) the City diligently prosecutes such cure to completion; (3) The City or the Corporation (i) files a petition in bankruptcy or for reorganization, arrangement, composition, readjustment, liquidation, dissolution or similar relief under the federal Bankruptcy Code as now or in the future amended or any other 10 similar present or future federal or state statute or regulation, or file a pleading asking for such relief, (ii) makes an assignment for the benefit of its creditors; (iii) consents to the appointment of a trustee, receiver or liquidator for all or a major portion of its property or fails to have vacated or set aside the appointment of any trustee, receiver or liquidator which was made without the City's or Corporation's consent or acquiescence; or (4) The City vacates or abandons the Project or any portion thereof, and the same remains uncared for and unoccupied for a period of 60 days. Remedies on Default. If any Event of Default under the Lease shall have occurred and be continuing, the Trustee as assignee under the Assignment Agreement for the Corporation may (subject, however, to the restrictions contained in the Lease against acceleration of the Lease Payments) while such default continues, take any one or more of the following actions: (a) give the City written notice of intention to terminate the Lease and repossess and re -lease the Project on a date specified in such notice, which date will not be earlier than 30 days after such notice is given, and if all defaults have not then been cured, on the date so specified, the City's rights to possession of the Project will cease and the Lease will thereupon be terminated, and the Trustee as assignee for the Corporation may re-enter and take possession of the Project; or (b) without terminating the Lease, re-enter the Project or take possession thereof pursuant to legal proceedings or pursuant to any notice provided for by law, and having elected to re-enter or take possession of the Project without terminating the Lease, the Trustee will use reasonable diligence to relet the Project, or parts thereof, for such term or terms and at such rental and upon such other provisions and conditions as the Trustee may deem advisable, with the right to make alterations and repairs to the Project, and no such re- entry or taking of possession of the Project by the Trustee will be construed as an election on the Trustee's part to terminate the Lease, and no such re-entry or taking of possession by the Trustee will relieve the City of its obligation to pay Lease Payments or Additional Payments (at the time or times provided in the Lease), or of any of its other obligations under the Lease, all of which shall survive such re-entry or taking of possession, and the City will continue to pay the Lease Payments and Additional Payments specified in the Lease until the end of the Fiscal Year whether or not the Project shall have been relet, less the net proceeds, if any, of any reletting of the Project after deducting all of the Trustee's reasonable expenses in, or in connection with, such reletting, including without limitation all repossession costs, brokerage commissions, legal expenses, expenses of employees, alteration costs and expenses of preparation for reletting.

If in accordance with any of the foregoing provisions of the Lease the Trustee has the right to elect to re-enter and take possession of the Project, the Trustee may enter and expel the City and those claiming through or under the City and remove the property and effects of both or either (forcibly if necessary) without being guilty of any manner of trespass and without prejudice to any remedies for arrears of rent or for preceding breach of covenant. The Trustee may take whatever action at law or in equity which may appear necessary or desirable to collect rent then due and thereafter to become due, or to enforce performance and observance of any obligation, agreement or covenant of the City under the Lease. 11 In addition to the above remedies, the Trustee may file such suits in law or equity as deemed most effectual to protect and enforce any right under the Lease including, but not limited to, suits to require the City to account as the trustee of an express trust, to enjoin the City from actions which may be unlawful or in violation of the rights of the Corporation or the Trustee or to compel the City to perform its duties and obligations under the law and under the Lease. In the Event of Default, there shall be no right under any circumstances to accelerate the Lease Payments or otherwise declare any Lease Payments not then in default to be immediately due and payable. The enforceability of the rights and remedies of the Owners may be subject to certain laws or principal of equity. Abatement of Rental in the Event of Loss of Use. The amount of Lease Payments shall be abated, during any period in which by reason of damage, destruction or by taking by eminent domain there is a substantial interference with the use and possession of the Project by the City. The amount of such abatement shall be determined by the City so that the resulting Lease Payments represent fair consideration for the use and occupancy of the portions of the Project not damaged or destroyed. Such abatement shall continue for the period commencing with such damage or destruction and ending with the completion of the work of repair or reconstruction. In the event of any such damage or destruction, the Lease shall continue in full force and effect and the City waives any right to terminate the Lease by virtue of any such damage or destruction.

(3) There will be transferred to the City to be held in the Project Fund the remaining balance of the proceeds of the Certificates. Investment of Moneys in Funds and Accounts Moneys held in the Lease Payment Fund and the Reserve Fund will, pursuant to written order of the City, be separately invested and reinvested by the Trustee in Permitted Investments which mature or are subject to prepayment by the holder prior to the date when such Funds will be needed. Any such Permitted Investments will be held by or under the control of the Trustee and shall be deemed at all times to be a part of the Fund in which such moneys are originally held; and, except as provided in the next sentence, the interest accruing thereon and any gain realized from such Permitted Investments will be credited to and accumulated in such Fund, and any loss resulting from such Permitted Investments will be charged to such Fund. Prior to the Completion Date, all interest or income realized on Permitted Investments in the Lease Payment Fund and the Reserve Fund and interest earnings thereon will be credited to and accumulated in the Project Fund. After the Completion Date, all interest and income realized on Permitted Investments in the Reserve Fund shall be deposited into the Lease Payment Fund. After the Trustee has notice pursuant to the Trust Agreement of the existence of an Event of Default, the Trustee shall direct the investment of moneys in the Lease Payment Fund and the Reserve Fund. The Trustee shall, at the direction of the City (except as provided following an Event of Default), sell and reduce to cash a sufficient amount of such Permitted Investments whenever the cash balance in any Fund is insufficient for the purposes of the Fund. Events of Default An Event of Default under the Lease also constitutes an Event of Default under the Trust Agreement (Please refer to "LEASE -AGREEMENT - Events of Default." herein). Exercise of Remedies by the Trustee. If an Event of Default has occurred and be continuing, the Trustee may, and if requested to do so by the Owners of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of Certificates then Outstanding, the Trustee shall, pursue and exercise any available remedy at law or in equity by suit, action, mandamus or other proceeding or exercise one or more of the rights and remedies conferred by the Trust Agreement as the Trustee, being advised by counsel, shall deem most expedient in the interests of the Certificate Owners, to enforce the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Certificates then Outstanding, and to enforce and compel the performance of the duties and obligations of the Corporation. If an Event of Default shall happen, THERE SHALL BE NO RIGHT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES TO ACCELERATE THE MATURITIES OF THE CERTIFICATES OR OTHERWISE DECLARE ANY LEASE PAYMENTS NOT THEN IN DEFAULT TO BE IMMEDIATELY DUE AND PAYABLE. All rights of action under the Trust Agreement or under any of the Certificates may be enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the Certificates or the production thereof in any trial or other proceedings relating thereto, and any such suit or proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its name as Trustee without necessity of joining as plaintiffs or 13 defendants any Owners of the Certificates, and any recovery of judgment will, subject to the provisions of the Trust Agreement, be for the equal benefit of all the Owners of the Outstanding Certificates. Amendments. The Trust Agreement can be modified or amended at any time without the consent of the Certificate Owners but only to the extent permitted by law and only (1) to cure, correct or supplement any ambiguous or defective provision in the Lease or the Trust Agreement, and (2) to the extent that in the opinion of the Trustee the modification or amendment shall not adversely affect the interest of the Certificate Owners. Except for the amendments, changes or modifications as specified above, neither the Corporation nor the Trustee will consent to any other amendment, change or modification of the Lease without the giving of notice and the obtaining of the written consent of the Owners of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Certificates at the time Outstanding given and obtained as provided in the Trust Agreement. If at any time the Corporation and the City shall request the consent of the Trustee to any such proposed amendment, change or modification of the Lease, the Trustee will cause notice of such proposed amendment, change or modification to be given in the same manner as provided in the Trust Agreement with respect to Supplemental Trust Agreements. Such notice will briefly set forth the nature of such proposed amendment, change or modification and will state that copies of the same are on file at the principal office of the Trustee for inspection by all Certificate Owners. RISK FACTORS Lease Payments- Nona pprop riation Lease Payments payable under the terms of the Lease are limited obligations of the City and are not secured by any pledge of taxes or other revenues of the City. The cost and expense of the performance by the City of its obligations under the Lease and the incurrence of any liabilities of the City under the Lease, including without limitation, the payment of all Lease Payments, Additional Payments and all other amounts required to be paid by the City under the Lease, are subject to and dependent upon annual appropriations being made by the City Council of the City for such purposes. The City has covenanted in the Lease to budget for, appropriate and make Lease Payments in each year during the term of the Lease, but such action is dependent upon an annual decision to be made in the City's sole discretion. Certificates Not General Obligations The obligation of the City to make Lease Payments does not constitute an obligation of the City for which the City is obligated to levy or pledge any form of taxation or for which the City has levied or pledged any form of taxation. Neither the Certificates nor the obligation of the City to make Lease Payments under the Lease constitutes a debt or indebtedness of the City, the Agency, the State of California or any of its political subdivisions within the meaning of any constitutional or statutory debt limitation or restriction. Constitutional Limitations on Taxes and Expenditures Article XHI A of the California Constitution limits the taxing powers of California public agencies. Article YM A provides that the maximum ad valorem tax on real property cannot exceed 1% of the "full cash value" which is defined as "the county assessor's valuation of real property as shown on the 1975-76 tax bill under 'full cash value' or, thereafter, the appraised value of real property when purchased, newly constructed, or a change in ownership has occurred after the 1975 assessment," subject to exceptions for certain circumstances of transfer or reconstruction. The "full 14 cash value" is subject to annual adjustment to reflect increases not to exceed 2% per year, or decreases in the consumer price index or comparable local data, or to reflect reduction in property value caused by damage, destruction or other factors. Article XIII A requires a vote of two-thirds of the qualified electorate to impose special taxes, while totally precluding the imposition of any additional ad valorem sales or transaction tax on real property. As recently amended, Article XIII A exempts from the 1% tax limitation any taxes above the level required to any debt service on certain voter -approved general obligation bonds. In addition, Article XIII A requires the approval of two-thirds of all members of the State Legislature to change any State laws resulting in increased tax revenues. The California Supreme Court has upheld the general validity of Article XIIIA against a series of challenges which attacked the initiative which, among other things, enacted Article XIIIA as a whole. The Court found that it was premature to rule on a claim that Article XIIIA impermissibly interfered with contracts in violation of the U.S. Constitution, stating that such a challenge must come when a specific contract or obligation is impaired. In early 1990, the United States Supreme Court struck down as a violation of equal protection certain property tax assessment practices in West Virginia, which had resulted in vastly different assessments of similar properties. Since Article XIIIA of the California Constitution provides that property may only be reassessed up to 2% per year, except upon certain changes of ownership or new construction, recent purchasers may pay substantially higher property taxes than long-time owners of comparable property in a community. The United States Supreme Court in the West Virginia case expressly declined to comment in any way on the constitutionality of Article XIIIA. Based on this decision, however, property owners in California brought three suits challenging the acquisition value assessment provision of Article XIIIA. Two cases include residential property, and one case involves commercial property. In all three cases, State trial and appellate courts have upheld the constitutionality of Article XIIIA's assessment rules and concluded that the West Virginia case did not apply to California's laws. However, the United States Supreme Court has recently heard the appeal in Nordlinger v. Hahn (225 Cal. App. 3d. 1259), one of the challenges relating to residential property. Neither the Corporation nor the City can predict how the Supreme Court will resolve the challenges to Article XIIIA. If the plaintiffs' contentions are upheld, it is possible that property assessments will be substantially reduced for those who purchased property after Article XIIIA was enacted. Neither the Corporation nor the City can predict the ultimate effect any decision holding the State's present system of property tax assessment unconstitutional would have on general fund revenues or on the City's ability to meet its obligations under the Lease. Article XIII B limits the annual appropriations of the State and of any city, county, school district, authority or other political subdivision of the State to the level of appropriations for the prior fiscal year, as adjusted for changes in the cost of living, population and services rendered by the government entity. This limit is popularly known as the "Gann Limit," named after the author and chief proponent of the measure. The "base year" for establishing such appropriation limit is the 1978-79 fiscal year and the limit is to be adjusted annually to reflect changes in population, consumer price index and certain increases in the cost of services provided by these public agencies. Appropriations subject to Article XIII B include generally the proceeds of taxes levied by the State or other entity of local government, exclusive of certain State subventions, refunds of taxes, benefit payments from retirement, unemployment insurance and disability insurance funds. "Proceeds of taxes" include, but are not limited to, all tax revenues and the proceeds to an entity of government from (i) regulatory licenses, user charges, and user fees (but only to the extent such proceeds exceed the cost of providing the service or regulation), and (ii) the investment of tax 15 revenues. Article XIII B includes a requirement that if an entity's revenues in any year exceed the amounts permitted to be spent, the excess would have to be returned by revising tax rates or fee schedules over the subsequent two years. If the City is at or over its Gann Limit, the City may be effectively precluded from utilizing options such as a property tax or utility users tax, because such tax revenues are not exempt from the Gann limit. General obligation bonds, in which the annual debt payments or increased tax revenues are exempt from the Gann limit, could provide a financing alternative, but would require two-thirds voter approval. Both Article XIII A and XIII B were adopted as measures that qualified for the ballot pursuant to California's constitutional initiative process. From time to time other initiative measures could be adopted, affecting the ability of the City to increase revenues and to increase appropriations. Lease Payments Unsecured The Lease Payments and other amounts due under the Lease, including payment of costs of improvements, repair, operation and maintenance of the Project, taxes and other governmental charges and assessments levied against the Project are not secured by any pledge of taxes, but are payable from funds lawfully available to the City. In the event that the City's revenue sources are less than its total obligations, the City could choose to fund other municipal services before making Lease Payments. The same result could occur if, because of State of California Constitutional limits on expenditures, the City is not permitted to appropriate and spend all of its available revenues. However, the City has covenanted in the Lease to budget for, appropriate and make the Lease Payments and other payments due under the Lease in each year during which it has use and possession of the Project. No Liability of the Corporation to the Owners Except as expressly provided in the Trust Agreement, the Corporation, as lessor, will not have any obligation or liability to the Owners of the Certificates with respect to the payment when due of the Lease Payments by the City, or with respect to the observance or performance by the City of other agreements, conditions, covenants and terms required to be observed or performed by the City under the Lease or under the Trust Agreement, with respect to the performance by the Trustee of any obligation required to be performed by it under the Trust Agreement. Limited Recourse on Default If the City should default on its obligation to make Lease Payments with respect to the Project, the Trustee, as assignee of the Corporation, may, subject to the Site Lease, re-enter and take possession of the Project pursuant to the Lease and hold the City liable for all Lease Payments on an annual basis. Such re-entry and re -letting will not effect a waiver or release of the Lease. Alternatively, the Trustee may, subject to the Site Lease, terminate the Lease and proceed against the City to recover damages pursuant to the terms of the Lease. If the City defaults on its obligations to make Lease Payments, the Trustee may, subject to the Site Lease, have limited ability to re -let the Project so as to preserve the tax exempt nature of the interest component of the Lease Payments and Certificates. In any event, the Trustee may have limited ability to re -let the Project due to the nature of the Project itself and due to the essential nature of the Project to the City it is not certain whether a court would permit the exercise of the remedies of repossession and re -letting with respect thereto. Any suit for money damages would be subject to limitations on legal remedies against cities in the State of California, including a limitation on enforcement or judgments against funds needed to serve the public welfare and interest. 16 Abatement The amount of Lease Payments will be abated, during any period in which by reason of damage or destruction (other than by condemnation which is described below) there is a substantial interference with the use and possession of the Project by the City; except that no such abatement will occur during the period prior to the deposit with the Trustee of any Net Proceeds of use and occupancy insurance resulting from such damage or destruction and the application thereof to the payment of the Certificates. The amount of such abatement will be agreed upon by the City and Trustee such that the resulting Lease Payments represent fair consideration for the use and occupancy of the portions of the Project not damaged or destroyed, giving due regard to the payment of the Certificates remaining outstanding after the application of the Net Proceeds of such insurance. Such abatement will continue for the period commencing with such damage or destruction and ending with the completion of the replacement or work of repair or reconstruction. In the event of any such damage or destruction, the Lease will continue in full force and effect and the City waives any right to terminate the Lease by virtue of any such damage or destruction. In the event such portion of the Project cannot be repaired during the period of time that proceeds of the City's rental interruption insurance will be available in lieu of Lease Payments, plus the period for which funds are available in the Reserve Fund, or in the event that casualty insurance proceeds or condemnation proceeds are insufficient to provide for complete repair or replacement of such portion of the affected Project or redemption of the Certificates, there may be insufficiency funds to cover payments to the Owners in full. If the entire Project is taken permanently under the power of eminent domain, the Lease Term will cease as of the day possession shall be so taken. If less than the entire Project is taken permanently, or if the entire Project or any part thereof is taken temporarily, under the power of eminent domain, (1) the Lease will continue in full force and effect and will not be terminated by virtue of such taking and the parties waive the benefit of any law to the contrary, and (2) there will be a partial abatement of Lease Payments to be agreed upon by the City and the Trustee, but in no event will the resulting Lease Payments be less than the amount required for the payment of the principal and interest with respect to the Outstanding Certificates as the same become due and payable. Loss of Tax Exemption As discussed under the caption "TAX EXEMPTION" herein, the interest due with respect to the Certificates could become includable in gross income for purposes of federal income taxation retroactive to the date such Certificates were issued, as a result of acts or omissions of the City or the Corporation in violation of its covenants in the Trust Agreement and the Lease. Should such an event of taxability occur, the Certificates are not subject to special prepayment and will remain Outstanding until maturity or until prepaid under one of the redemption provisions contained in the Trust Agreement. THE CORPORATION The Newport Beach Public Facilities Corporation was incorporated on March 9, 1992, and is a nonprofit public benefit corporation duly organized and existing under the Nonprofit Public Benefit Corporation Law for the purpose of benefitting and carrying out the purposes of the City of Newport Beach, by providing for the planning, development, acquisition, construction, improvement, extension, repair, renovation and/or financing of public buildings, works, projects, facilities, furnishings and equipment for the benefit or use of the City. 17 TAX EXEMPTION In the opinion of Brown, Diven & Hentschke, Special Counsel, under existing law, the interest on the Certificates (a) is exempt from present State of California personal income taxation, (b) is excludable from gross income for federal income tax purposes and (c) is not an item of tax preference for purposes of federal alternative minimum tax imposed on individuals and corporations; however, it should be noted that with respect to corporations (as defined for federal income tax purposes), such interest is taken into account in determining adjusted net book income (adjusted current earnings for taxable years beginning after 1989) for the purpose of computing the alternative minimum tax imposed on such corporations. The opinion set forth in clause (b) above is subject to the condition that the Trustee, the Corporation and the City comply with all requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code") that must be satisfied subsequent to the issuance of the Certificates in order that interest thereon be (or continue to be) excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes. Failure to comply with certain of such requirements could cause the interest on the Certificates to be so included in gross income retroactive to the date of issuance of the Certificates. The Trustee, the Corporation and the City have covenanted to comply with all such requirements. Special Counsel expresses no opinion regarding other federal tax consequences arising with respect to the Certificates. Prospective purchasers of the Certificates should be aware that (i) Section 265 of the Code denies a deduction for interest on indebtedness incurred or continued to purchase or carry the Certificates, except with respect to certain financial institutions (within the meaning of Section 265(b)(5) of the Code); (ii) with respect to insurance companies subject to the tax imposed by Section 831 of the Code, for taxable years beginning after December 31, 1986, Section 832(b)(5)(B)(i) reduces the deduction for loss reserves by 15 percent of the sum of certain items, including interest on the Certificates; (iii) for taxable years beginning after December 31, 1986 and before January 1, 1992, interest on the Certificates earned by some corporations could be subject to the environmental tax imposed by Section 59A of the Code; (iv) for taxable years beginning after December 31, 1986, interest on the Certificates earned by certain foreign corporations doing business in the United States could be subject to a branch profits tax imposed by Section 884 of the Code; (v) passive investment income including interest on the Certificates, may be subject to federal income taxation under Section 1375 of the Code for Subchapter S corporations that have Subchapter C earnings and profits at the close of the taxable year if greater than 25% of the gross receipts of such Subchapter S corporation is passive investment income; and (vi) Section 86 of the Code requires recipients of certain Social Security and certain Railroad Retirement benefits to take into account in determining gross income, receipts or accruals of interest on the Certificates. CERTAIN LEGAL MATTERS Brown, Diven & Hentschke, San Diego, California, Special Counsel, will render an opinion with respect to the validity and enforceability of the Lease and the Trust Agreement and as to the validity of the Certificates. Copies of such approving opinion will be available at the time of delivery of the Certificates and will be printed on the Certificates. ABSENCE OF LITIGATION There is no action, suit or proceeding known to be pending or threatened, restraining or enjoining the execution or delivery of the Certificates, the Lease or the Trust Agreement or in any way contesting or affecting the validity of the foregoing or any proceeding of the City taken with respect to any of the foregoing. 18 CERTIFICATE INSURANCE [Information to follow.] RATINGS Standard & Poor's Corporation and Moody's Investors Service, Inc. have assigned their respective municipal ratings of " " and " " to this issue of Certificates with the understanding that upon delivery of the Certificates, a policy insuring the payment when due of the principal of and interest on the Certificates will be issued by AMBAC Indemnity.

NEWPORT BEACH PUBLIC FACILITIES CORPORATION By /s/ President 20 SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION THE CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH The following information concerning the City of Alhambra and surrounding areas is included only for the purpose of supplying general information regarding the community. The Certificates are not a debt of the City of Alhambra, the State of California or any of its political subdivisions, and neither the City, the State nor any of its political subdivisions is liable therefor. General Description The City of Newport Beach was incorporated September 1, 1906. The Council -Manager form of government was established by Municipal Charter on January 7. 1955. The location of the City is 85 miles north of San Diego and 50 miles south of Los Angeles. The tourist population is high throughout the year. Its harbor, recreation and special attraction draws many to the City. Population The City's population, as of January 1, 1991 was 67,300 according to the California Demographic Research Department. A historical summary of the City's population is reflected below, which shows population trends for Newport Beach. City of Newport Beach Population 1980 .................... 62,556 1990.................. 66,736 1988 .................... 66,327 1991.................. 67,300 1989 .................... 66,684 Source: California Demographic Research Department.

The internal control structure is designed to provide reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that these objectives are met. The concept of reasonable assurance recognizes that: (1) the cost of a control should not exceed the benefits likely to be derived; and (2) the valuation of costs and benefits requires estimates and judgments by management. General Government Function. The following schedule (expressed in thousands) presents a summary of General Fund, Special Revenue Fund and Capital Projects Fund revenues for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1991 and the amount and percentage of increases and decreases in relation to prior year revenues. Fiscal Year 1990-91 Revenues Amount Revenues ($11000) Taxes 40,479 Licenses and Permits 2,808 Intergovernmental 11,029 Charges for Services 4,789 Fines and Forfeits 3,115 Use of Money and Property 9,999 Miscellaneous 3.556 Total JZ5,775 % of Total Change % Change 53.41% 2,089 5.44% 3.71 154 5.82 14.55 (5,307) -32.49 6.32 (128) -2.60 4.11 (261) -7.75 13.20 233 2.39 4.70 2 5 -7.42 100.00% $(3,505) -4.42% The net decrease in total revenue since last year is representative of the overall economic decline, as well as some one-time aberrations in specific areas. It would appear that the most significant single development in revenue was the decline in revenue received from other governmental sources. However, the size of this decrease (32.49%) is largely a correction for the exceptionally large increase of 46.15% that occurred last year, primarily representing funds received for the Pacific Coast Highway Widening project, which was then at its peak. This years figure of $11,029,000 is actually quite consistent with the long-term trend in revenues from this source, as can be seen from the information concerning revenues over the past ten years contained in the statistical section. Without this decline, overall revenue would actually have shown a small increase over the prior year. About 45% of the revenue from use of money and property represents investment income. In spite of declining interest rates, the City's revised investment program resulted in virtually no decline in revenue from this source. This, along with a slight increase in revenues from rentals and concessions, precluded a potential decrease in this category. The increase in revenue from taxes and licenses and permits is still generally consistent with long-term trends, but a continuation of the economic slowdown will begin to affect these categories much more significantly in the future. The schedule below presents a summary of General Fund, Special Revenue Fund and Capital Projects Fund expenditures for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1991 and the percentage of increase or decrease in relation to prior year amounts. The significant increase in general government expenditures was due primarily to large payments on self -insured liability claims and other self -insured programs during the 1990-91 fiscal year. 22 The significant decrease in capital outlay was due primarily to completion/winding down of a major highway widening project in the City.

In the event the Corporation does not elect to terminate this Lease in the manner hereinafter provided for in subparagraph (b) hereof, the Corporation may, with the consent of the City, which consent is hereby irrevocably given, repossess the Site and re -lease the Site for the account of the City, in which event the City's obligation will accrue from year to year in accordance with this Lease and the City will continue to receive the value of the use of the Site from year to year in the form of credits against its obligation to pay Lease Payments. The obligations of the City shall remain the same as prior to such default: to pay fixed Lease Payments and Additional Payments whether the Corporation re-enters or not. The City agrees to and shall remain liable -19- m for the payment of all Lease Payments and Additional Payments and the performance of all conditions contained herein and shall reimburse the Corporation for any deficiency arising out of the re -leasing of the Site, or, in the event the Corporation is unable to re -lease the Site, then for the full amount of all Lease Payments to the end of the Term of this Lease, but said Lease Payments, deficiency, or both, shall be payable only at the same time and in the same manner as provided above for the payment of Lease Payments hereunder, notwithstanding such repossession by the Corporation or any suit brought by the Corporation for the purpose of effecting such repossession of the Site or the exercise of any other remedy by the Corporation. The City hereby irrevocably appoints the Corporation as the agent and attorney -in -fact of the City to repossess and re -lease the Site in the event of default and to remove all personal property whatsoever situated upon the Site, to place such property in storage or other suitable place in CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH, for the account of and at the expense of the City, and the City hereby exempts and agrees to save harmless the Corporation from any costs, loss or damage whatsoever arising or occasioned by any such repossession and re- leasing of the Site. The City hereby waives any and all claims for damage caused or which may be caused by the Corporation in repossessing the Site as provided herein and all claims for damages that may result from the destruction of or the injury to the Site and all claims for damages to or loss of any property belonging to the City that may be in or upon the Site. The City agrees that the terms of this Lease constitute full and sufficient notice of the right of the Corporation to re -lease the Site in the event of such repossession without effecting a surrender of this Lease, and further agrees that no acts of the Corporation in effecting such re -leasing shall constitute a surrender or termination of this Lease irrespective of the term for which such re -leasing is made or the terms and conditions of such re -leasing, or otherwise, but that, on the contrary, in the event of such default by the City the right to terminate this Lease shall vest in the Corporation to be effected in the sole and exclusive manner provided for in subparagraph (b) below. The Trustee shall remit to the City the portion of rental obtained by the Trustee as assignee of the Corporation in excess of the Lease Payments and of the costs of the Corporation of re -leasing the Site. In the event that the liability of the City under this subsection (a) is held to constitute indebtedness or liability in any year exceeding in any year the income and revenue provided for such year, the Corporation, or the Trustee or the Certificate Owners as assignees of the Corporation, shall not exercise the offending remedies provided by this subsection (a). (b) Termination: Repossession and Re -Lease. In the event of the termination of this Lease by the Corporation at its option and in the manner hereinafter provided on account of default by the City (and notwithstanding any repossession of the Site by the Corporation in any manner whatsoever or the re -leasing of the Site), the City nevertheless agrees to pay to the Corporation all costs, losses or damages howsoever arising or occurring payable at the same time and in the same manner as is provided herein in the case of payment of Lease Payments. Any proceeds of the re -lease or other disposition of the Site by the Corporation shall be deposited into the Lease Payment Fund and be applied in accordance with the -20- provisions of Section 5.04 of the Trust Agreement. Any surplus received by the Trustee as assignee of the Corporation from such re -leasing over the total Lease Payments that would have been due hereunder and the cost of the Trustee as assignee of the Corporation on re- leasing the Site shall be remitted to the City. Neither notice to pay rent or to deliver up possession of the Site given pursuant to law nor any proceeding taken by the Corporation to recover possession of the Site shall of itself operate to terminate this Lease, and no termination of this Lease on account of default by the City shall be or become effective by operation of law, or otherwise, unless and until the Corporation shall have given written notice to the City of the election on the part of the Corporation to terminate this Lease. The City covenants and agrees that no surrender of the Site for the remainder of the Term hereof or any termination of this Lease shall be valid in any manner or for any purpose whatsoever unless stated or accepted by the Corporation by such written notice. No such termination shall be effected either by operation of law or act of the parties hereto, except only in the manner herein expressly provided. The Corporation and City hereby agree that Section 1951.2 of the California Civil Code shall apply to this Lease and that upon such termination, the Corporation may recover, in addition to all other damages available by contract or at law, from the City: (i) the worth at the time of award of the unpaid rental which had been earned at the time of termination; (ii) the worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid rental for the balance of the term after the time of the award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that the City proves could have been reasonably avoided; and (iii) any other amount necessary to compensate the Corporation for all the detriment proximately caused. by. the City's failure to perform its obligations under this Lease or which in the ordinary course of things would be likely to result therefrom. The "worth at the time of award" of the amounts referred to in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above is computed by allowing interest at the legal rate of interest per annum at which judgments for money in the State bear interest. (c) Opinion of Special Counsel. The re -leasing of the Site as provided herein shall be subject (i) to the opinion of Special Counsel that such re -leasing will not cause interest on the Certificates to become includable in gross income for Federal income tax purposes or subject to State of California personal income taxes and (ii) the written consent of the Trustee. SECTION 9.3. No Remedy Exclusive. No remedy conferred herein upon or reserved to the Corporation is intended to be exclusive and every such remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given under this Lease or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity. No delay or omission to exercise any right or power accruing upon any default shall impair any such right or power or shall be construed to be a waiver thereof, but any such right and power may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient. In order to entitle the Corporation to exercise any remedy reserved to it in this Article it shall not be necessary to give any notice, other than such notice as may be required in this Article or by law. SECTION 9.4. Agreement to Pay Attorneys' Fees and Expenses. In the event either party to this Lease should default under any of the provisions hereof and the nondefaulting party should employ attorneys or incur other expenses for the collection of moneys or the -21 - enforcement of performance or observance of any obligation or agreement on the part of the defaulting party contained herein, the defaulting party agrees that it will pay on demand to the nondefaulting party the reasonable fees of such attorneys and such other expenses so incurred by the nondefaulting party. SECTION 9.5. No Additional Waiver Implied by One Waiver. In the event any agreement contained in this Lease should be breached by either party and thereafter waived by the other party, such waiver shall be limited to the particular breach so waived and shall not be deemed to waive any other breach hereunder. SECTION 9.6. Application of the Proceeds from the Re -Lease of the Project. All amounts received by the Corporation under this Article IX (other than as provided in Section 9.2(b) herein regarding certain surplus) shall be deposited by the Trustee in the Lease Payment Fund and credited towards the Lease Payments in order of Lease Payment Date. SECTION 9.7. Trustee and Certificate Owners to Exercise Rights. Such rights and remedies as are given to the Corporation under this Article IX have been assigned by the Corporation to the Trustee under the Trust Agreement, to which assignment the City hereby consents. Such rights and remedies shall be exercised by the Trustee and the Owners as provided in the Trust Agreement. ARTICLE X PREPAYMENT OF LEASE PAYMENTS SECTION 10.1. Mandatory Prepayment From Net Proceeds, State Reimbursement Moneys or Other Moneys. The City shall be obligated to prepay the Lease Payments in whole or in part on any date, from and to the extent of any Net Proceeds, State reimbursement moneys or other moneys theretofore deposited in the Prepayment Account pursuant to Section 4.02 of the Trust Agreement. The City and the Corporation hereby agree that such Net Proceeds or other moneys shall be credited towards the City's obligations hereunder (except in the case of such prepayment of the Lease Payments in whole) pro rata among Lease Payments so that following prepayment, remaining annual Lease Payments are proportionate to initial annual Lease Payments. SECTION 10.2. Optional Prepayment. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Section, the Corporation hereby grants an option to the City to prepay in whole or in part, the principal amount of Lease Payments relating to Certificates in the amounts, on the dates and at the prepayment prices provided in Section 4.03 of the Trust Agreement. The City shall execute said option by giving written notice to the Trustee thereof at least 60 days prior to the date of prepayment and depositing with said notice cash, in the amount of the Principal Components of all Lease Payments 'to be prepaid plus (1) accrued interest on the principal amount of Lease Payments to be prepaid to the date of prepayment, plus (2) any Lease Payments then due but unpaid. -22- The City and the Corporation hereby agree that such prepayment in part shall be credited towards the City's obligations hereunder pro rata among the principal components of Lease Payments not previously paid, so that following such prepayment the remaining annual Lease Payments will, to the extent practicable given that amounts prepaid will be used to prepay Certificates in integral multiples of $5,000, be proportionate to the initial amounts of such Lease Payments. SECTION 10.3. Credit for Amounts on Deposit. In the event of prepayment of the Lease Payments in full under this Article X and the payment of all Additional Payments such that the Trust Agreement shall be discharged by its terms as a result of such prepayment, all amounts then on deposit in the Lease Payment Fund, the Acquisition and Construction Fund and the Reserve Fund shall be credited toward the amounts then required to be so prepaid. SECTION 10.4. Effect of Prepayment. (a) In Whole. In the event that the City prepays all remaining Lease Payments pursuant to Section 10.1 or 10.2 hereof and all amounts owing the Trustee pursuant to Section 4.10 hereof, then the City's obligations under this Lease shall thereupon cease and terminate, including but not limited to the City's obligation to continue to pay Lease Payments under this Article X. (b) In Part. In the event the City prepays less than all of the remaining principal components of the Lease Payments either pursuant to Sections 10.1 or 10.2 hereof from Net Proceeds or other moneys, the amount of such prepayment shall be applied to reduce the principal components of the remaining Lease Payments pro rata, corresponding to the resulting prepayment of principal with respect to the Certificates.

BANK OF AMERICA NATIONAL TRUST AND SAVINGS ASSOCIATION, as Trustee Authorized Signatory Date of Execution: M [REVERSE SIDE OF CERTIFICATE] This Certificate has been executed and delivered by the Trustee pursuant to the terms of a Trust Agreement by and among the Trustee, Newport Beach Public Facilities Corporation, as lessor (the "Corporation"), and the City, dated as of June 1, 1992 (the "Trust Agreement"). Reference is hereby made to the Lease and the Trust Agreement (copies of which are on file at the Principal Office) for a description of the terms on which the Certificates are delivered, the rights thereunder of the Registered Owners of the Certificates, the rights, duties and immunities of the Trustee and the rights and obligations of the City under the Lease, to all of the provisions of which Lease and Trust Agreement the Registered Owner of this Certificate, by acceptance hereof, assents and agrees. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Trust Agreement. The City is obligated to pay Lease Payments from any source of legally available funds, and the City has covenanted in the Lease to make the necessary annual appropriations therefor. The obligation of the City to pay the Lease Payments does not constitute an obligation of the City for which the City is obligated to levy or pledge any form of taxation or for which the City has levied or pledged any form of taxation. The obligations of the City to pay Lease Payments does not constitute a debt of the City, the State of California or any of its political subdivisions, and does not constitute an indebtedness within the meaning of any constitutional or statutory debt limitation or restriction. The City's obligations to pay Lease Payments may be abated during any period in which, by reason of material damage, destruction or condemnation, there is substantial interference with the use and right of possession by the City of the property which is the subject of the Lease. Failure of the City to pay Lease Payments during any such period shall not constitute a default under the Lease, the Trust Agreement or this Certificate. To the extent and in the manner permitted by the terms of the Trust Agreement, the provisions of the Trust Agreement may be amended by the parties thereto with the written consent of the Registered Owners of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Certificates then Outstanding, and may be amended without such consent under certain circumstances. No such modification or amendment shall (1) extend or have the effect of extending the fixed maturity of any Certificate or reducing the interest rate with respect thereto or extending the time of payment of interest, or reducing the amount of principal thereof or reducing any premium payable upon the prepayment thereof, without the express consent of the Owner of such Certificate, or (2) reduce or have the effect of reducing the percentage of Certificates required for the affirmative vote or written consent to an amendment or modification of the Lease, or (3) modify any of the rights or certificates of the Trustee without its written assent thereto. This Certificate is transferable by the Registered Owner hereof, in person or by his duly authorized attorney, at the Principal Office, but only in the manner, subject to the limitations and upon payment of the charges provided in the Trust Agreement and upon surrender and cancellation of this Certificate. Upon such transfer a new Certificate or Certificates, of authorized denomination or denominations, for the same aggregate principal amount, maturity and interest rate, will be delivered to the transferee. The Trustee shall not be required to A-3 register the transfer or exchange of any certificate (i) between 15 days prior to selection of certificates for prepayment and the date of mailing notice of prepayment and (ii) as to any certificate selected for prepayment. This Certificate also may be exchanged for a like aggregate principal amount of Certificates of other authorized denominations as prescribed in the Trust Agreement. The City, the Corporation and the Trustee may treat the Registered Owner hereof as the absolute owner hereof for all purposes whether or not this Certificate shall be overdue, and the City, the Corporation and the Trustee shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary. The Certificates are subject to mandatory prepayment on any date prior to maturity, in whole or in part, from the Net Proceeds of insurance or condemnation if such proceeds are insufficient to repair or replace the Site and the City has elected to apply such proceeds to the prepayment of all or a portion of the outstanding Certificates, at a prepayment price equal to the principal amount thereof, without premium, together with accrued interest to the date fixed for prepayment. The Certificates are also subject to mandatory prepayment if and to the extent required in order to preserve to excludability of interest on the Certificates from gross income for purposes of federal income taxation, as set forth in an opinion of Special Counsel at a prepayment price equal to the principal amount to be prepaid, without premium, together with accrued interest to the date fixed for prepayment. Whenever provision is made for the mandatory prepayment of Certificates and less than all Outstanding Certificates are called for mandatory prepayment, the Trustee shall select Certificates for prepayment pro rata among maturities and by lot within any maturity so that following such prepayment remaining annual payments of principal and interest represented by the Certificates are, to the extent practicable, proportionate to the initial amounts of such payments. The Term Certificates maturing on June 1, 2019 (the "Term Certificates") will be subject to mandatory prepayment, on each June 1, commencing on June 1, 2006, at a prepayment price equal to the principal amount thereof together with accrued interest thereon to the prepayment date, without premium, in the years and amounts as set forth in the following table: Year Year (June 1) Amount (June 1 ?
