The use of lease revenue bonds to finance general infrastructure is commonly used by cities in California. Under this financing structure, a joint powers authority is utilized for the sole purpose of issuing bonds for the benefit of the issuer. Therefore, on September 13, 2016, City Council formed the Lake Elsinore Facilities Financing Authority (the “Authority”), a joint powers agreement between the City and Lake Elsinore Parking Authority (approved and formed on August 23, 2016) to issue the lease revenue bonds. With formation of the Lake Elsinore Facilities Financing Authority complete, the Authority is being asked to approve a Ground Lease, Lease Agreement, an Indenture, an Assignment Agreement and a Bond Purchase Agreement in connection with issuing the Lake Elsinore Facilities Financing Authority Lease Revenue Bonds, Series 2016A (the “2016 Lease Revenue Bonds”). Discussion Under a “lease revenue bond” financing, the City would lease certain City-owned assets to a joint powers authority for a nominal amount (one dollar) who would then lease these assets back to the City for a fixed annual rental payment (rental payments). These rental payments would be pledged by the joint powers authority toward repayment of annual bond payments (in a like amount). The City’s rental payments would be payable from the City’s General Fund. Although the City’s General Fund would be liable for the payments, the intended source of repayment would be from income generated from the project (i.e. campsite/RV/cabin rental, concession and boat storage fees & income). The proposed lease revenue bonds are anticipated to be secured by a variety of assets which include City Hall, Fire Station No. 10, and Rosetta Canyon Park. Should it prove to be economically viable, the proposed lease revenue bonds will be supported with municipal bond insurance and a debt service reserve fund insurance surety policy. The economics of the 2016 Lease Revenue Bonds are provided under the following section entitled, “Fiscal Impact.” As a reminder, City staff continues to work with Urban Futures, Inc. (“UFI”) in evaluating the financial feasibility of creating an Enhanced Infrastructure Financing District (“EIFD”) to fund critical infrastructure projects aimed at improving sustainability of Lake Elsinore, enhancing public access and utilization of the Lake, and supporting new public and private investment around the Lake, including infrastructure upgrades and land development. An EIFD is a prime and unique model of the legislative intent to create public benefit from infrastructure projects focused on the health, sustainability, and utilization of the single greatest regional asset in Lake Elsinore, the Lake itself. The Lake is not only a tourist destination and recreational amenity for the region, it is also a vital and threatened component of the broader watershed system. Water quality and overall sustainability of the Lake is therefore a major focus of the EIFD. It’s staff belief the financing for the La Laguna as well as the development and implementation of the EIFD focused on the lake itself are two critical components of managing the City’s greatest assets and utilizing the asset for the benefit of the community and those that wish to enjoy recreational activities in the City while also utilizing the City’s restaurants and businesses. Simply stated, the development of La Laguna as a world class facility can be economic engine for the local and regional economy while also providing an educational opportunity for those interested in natural resource sustainability. Fiscal Impact Based on current market conditions, it is anticipated that approximately $9.6 million in par amount of the 2016 Lease Revenue Bonds will be issued. Annual lease payments (amortized over a period of 30 years), payable from the City’s General Fund, are expected to be approximately $550,000. Total aggregate lease payments are estimated to be $16.7 million over the 30-year period. The final payment date of the 2016 Lease Revenue Bonds will be April 1, 2047. Summary of Financing Statistics* Par Amount $9,565,000 True Interest Cost 3.15% Average Annual Lease Payments $550,000 Approximate Aggregate Lease Payments $16,700,000 *Preliminary; Subject to Change; Market Conditions as of September 27, 2016 The exact par amount, interest rates and annual lease payments of the 2016 Lease Revenue Bonds will not be determined until the bonds are priced and sold to investors.

Neither notice to pay Rental Payments or to deliver up possession of the Property given pursuant to law nor any entry or re-entry by the Authority nor any proceeding in unlawful detainer, or otherwise, brought by the Authority for the purpose of effecting such re-entry or obtaining possession of the Property nor the appointment of a receiver upon initiative of the Authority to protect the Authority’s interest under this Lease Agreement shall of itself operate to terminate this Lease Agreement, and no termination of this Lease Agreement on account of default by the City shall be or become effective by operation of law or acts of the parties hereto, or otherwise, unless and until the Authority shall have given written notice to the City of the election on the part of the Authority to terminate this Lease Agreement. The City covenants and agrees that no surrender of the Property or of the remainder of the term hereof or any termination of this Lease Agreement shall be valid in any manner or for any purpose whatsoever unless stated by the Authority by such written notice. 11 (2)Without terminating this Lease Agreement, (x) to collect each installment of Rental Payments as the same become due and enforce any other terms or provisions hereof to be kept or performed by the City, regardless of whether or not the City has abandoned the Property, or (y) to exercise any and all rights of entry and re-entry upon the Property. In the event the Authoritydoes not elect to terminate this Lease Agreement in the manner provided for in subparagraph (1) hereof, the City shall remain liable and agrees to keep or perform all covenants and conditions herein contained to be kept or performed by the City and, if the Property is not re-let, to pay the full amount of the Rental Payments to the end of the term of this Lease Agreement or, in the event that the Property is re-let, to pay any deficiency in Rental Payments that results therefrom; and further agrees to pay said Rental Payments and/or Rental Payment deficiency punctually at the same time and in the same manner as hereinabove provided for the payment of Rental Payments hereunder, notwithstanding the fact that the Authority may have received in previous years or may receive thereafter in subsequent years Rental Payments in excess of the Rental Payments herein specified, and notwithstanding any entry or re-entry by the Authority or suit in unlawful detainer, or otherwise, brought by the Authority for the purpose of effecting such re-entry or obtaining possession of the Property. Should the Authority elect to re-enter as herein provided, the City hereby irrevocably appoints the Authority as the agent and attorney-in-fact of the City to re-let the Property, or any part thereof, from time to time, either in the Authority’s name or otherwise, upon such terms and conditions and for such use and period as the Authority may deem advisable and to remove all persons in possession thereof and all personal property whatsoever situated upon the Property and to place such personal property in storage in any warehouse or other suitable place, for the account of and at the expense of the City, and the City hereby indemnifies and agrees to save harmless the Authority from any costs, loss or damage whatsoever arising out of, in connection with, or incident to any such re-entry upon and re-letting of the Property and removal and storage of such property by the Authority or its duly authorized agents in accordance with the provisions herein contained. The City agrees that the terms of this Lease Agreement constitute full and sufficient notice of the right of the Authority to re-let the Property in the event of such re-entry without effecting a surrender of this Lease Agreement, and further agrees that no acts of the Authority in effecting such re-letting shall constitute a surrender or termination of this Lease Agreement irrespective of the use or the term for which such re-letting is made or the terms and conditions of such re-letting, or otherwise, but that, on the contrary, in the event of such default by the City the right to terminate this Lease Agreement shall vest in the Authority to be effected in the sole and exclusive manner provided for in subparagraph (1) hereof. The City further agrees to pay the Authority the cost of any alterations or additions to the Property necessary to place the Property in condition for re-letting immediately upon notice to the City of the completion and installation of such additions or alterations. The City hereby waives any and all claims for damages caused or which may be caused by the Authority in re-entering and taking possession of the Property as herein provided and all claims for damages that may result from the destruction of or injury to the Property and all claims for damages to or loss of any property belonging to the City, or any other person, that may be in or upon the Property.

(c)In addition to the other remedies set forth in this Section, upon the occurrence of an event of default, the Authority and its assignee shall be entitled to proceed to protect and enforce the rights vested in the Authority and its assignee by the Lease Agreement or by law. The provisions of the Lease Agreement and the duties of the City and of its city council, officers or employees shall be enforceable by the Authority or its assignee by mandamus or other appropriate suit, action or proceeding in any court of competent jurisdiction. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Authority and its assignee shall have the right to bring the following actions: (i)Accounting. By action or suit in equity to require the City and its city council, officers and employees and its assigns to account as the trustee of an express trust. (ii)Injunction.

Each and all of the remedies given to the Authority hereunder or by any law now or hereafter enacted are cumulative and the single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder shall not impair the right of the Authority to the further exercise thereof or the exercise of any or all other rights, powers or privileges. The term “re-let” or “re-letting” as used in this Section shall include, but not be limited to, re-letting by means of the operation by the Authority of the Property. If any statute or rule of law validly shall limit the remedies given to the Authorityhereunder, the Authority nevertheless shall be entitled to whatever remedies are allowable under any statute or rule of law. In the event the Authorityshall prevail in any action brought to enforce any of the terms and provisions of this Lease Agreement, the City agrees to pay a reasonable amount as and for attorney’s fees incurred by the Authority in attempting to enforce any of the remedies available to the Authority hereunder. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease Agreement, the Authority shall have no right upon a default hereunder by the City to accelerate Rental Payments. (d)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease Agreement, the termination of this Lease Agreement by the Authority and its assignees on account of a default by the City under this Section shall not effect or result in a termination of the Ground Lease. Section 6.02 Waiver. Failure of the Authority to take advantage of any default on the part of the City shall not be, or be construed as, a waiver thereof, nor shall any custom or practice which 13 may grow up between the parties in the course of administering this instrument be construed to waive or to lessen the right of the Authority to insist upon performance by the City of any term, covenant or condition hereof, or to exercise any rights given the Authority on account of such default. A waiver of a particular default shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any other default or of the same default subsequently occurring. The acceptance of Rental Payments hereunder shall not be, or be construed to be, a waiver of any term, covenant or condition of this Lease Agreement. ARTICLE VII EMINENT DOMAIN; PREPAYMENT Section 7.01 Eminent Domain. If all of the Property (or portions thereof such that the remainder is not usable for public purposes by the City) shall be taken under the power of eminent domain, the term hereof shall cease as of the day that possession shall be so taken.

The City agrees that if, following a partial prepayment of such Base Rental Payments, the Property is damaged or destroyed or taken by eminent domain, or a defect in title to the Property is discovered, the City shall not be entitled to, and by such prepayment waives the right 14 of, abatement of such prepaid Base Rental Payments and the City shall not be entitled to any reimbursement of such Base Rental Payments. (d)If all of the Base Rental Payments areprepaid in accordance with the provisions of this Lease Agreement then, as of the date of such prepayment pursuant to subsection (a) of this Section and, if applicable, the corresponding provisions hereof relating to the prepayment of Base Rental Payments attributable to Additional Bonds, or deposit pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section and, if applicable, such corresponding provisions, and payment of all other amounts owed under this Lease Agreement, the term of this Lease Agreement shall be terminated.

Every temporary Bond shall be executed by the Authority and authenticated by the Trustee upon the same conditions and in substantially the same manner as the definitive Bonds. If the Authority issues temporary Bonds of a Series it will execute and deliver definitive Bonds of such Series as promptly thereafter as practicable, and thereupon the temporary Bonds of such Series, may be surrendered, for cancellation, at the Office of the Trustee and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange for such temporary Bonds an equal aggregate principal amount of definitive Bonds of such Series in Authorized Denominations. Until so exchanged, the temporary Bonds of such Series shall be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Bonds of such Series authenticated and delivered hereunder.

Every mutilated Bond so surrendered to the Trustee shall be canceled by it and delivered to, or in accordance with the order of, the Authority. If any Bond shall be lost, destroyed or stolen, evidence of such loss, destruction or theft may be submitted to the Trustee and, if such evidence and indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee shall be given, the Authority, at the expense of the Owner, shall execute, and the Trustee shall thereupon authenticate and deliver, a new Bond of like tenor and Series in lieu of and in replacement for the Bond so lost, destroyed or stolen (or if any such Bond shall have matured or shall have been selected for redemption, instead of issuing a replacement Bond, the Trustee may pay the same without surrender thereof). The Authority may require payment by the Owner of a sum not exceeding the actual cost of preparing each replacement Bond issued under this Section and of the expenses which may be incurred by the Authority and the Trustee. Any Bond of a Series issued under the provisions of this Section in lieu of any Bond of such Series alleged to be lost, destroyed or stolen shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation on the part of the Authority whether or not the Bond so alleged to be lost, destroyed or stolen be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture with all other Bonds of such Series secured by this Indenture. Section 2.10 Book-Entry Bonds. (a)Prior to the issuance of a Series of Bonds, the Authority may provide that such Series of Bonds shall initially be issued as Book-Entry Bonds and, in such event, the Bonds of such Series for each maturity shall be in the form of a separate single fully registered Bond (which may be typewritten). The Series 2016 Bonds shall initially be issued as Book-Entry Bonds. Except as provided in subsection (c) of this Section, the registered Owner of all of the Book-Entry Bonds shall be Cede & Co., as nominee of DTC. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Indenture, payment of interest with respect to any Book-Entry Bond registered as of each Record Date in the name of Cede & Co. shall be made by wire transfer of same-day funds to the account of Cede & Co. on the Interest Payment Date at the address indicated on the Record Date for Cede & Co. in the Registration Books or as otherwise provided in the Representation Letter. (b)The Trustee and the Authority may treat DTC (or its nominee) as the sole and exclusive Owner of Book-Entry Bonds registered in its name for the purposes of payment of the 17 principal, premium, if any, or interest with respect to Book-Entry Bonds, selecting Book-Entry Bonds or portions thereof to be redeemed, giving any notice permitted or required to be given to Owners of Book-Entry Bonds under this Indenture, registering the transfer of Book-Entry Bonds, obtaining any consent or other action to be taken by Owners of Book-Entry Bonds and for all other purposes whatsoever, and neither the Trustee nor the Authority shall be affected by any notice to the contrary. Neither the Trustee nor the Authorityshall have any responsibility or obligation to any Participant, any person claiming a beneficial ownership interest in Book-Entry Bonds under or through DTC or any Participant, or any other person which is not shown on the Registration Books as being an Owner, with respect to the accuracy of any records maintained by DTC or any Participant, the payment by DTC or any Participant of any amount in respect of the principal, premium, if any, or interest with respect to Book-Entry Bonds, any notice which is permitted or required to be given to Owners of Book-Entry Bonds under this Indenture, the selection by DTC or any Participant of any person to receive payment in the event of a partial redemption of Book-Entry Bonds, or any consent given or-other action taken by DTC as Owner of Book-Entry Bonds. The Trustee shall pay all principal, premium, if any and interest with respect to Book-Entry Bonds, only to DTC, and all such payments shall be valid and effective to fully satisfy and discharge the Authority’s obligations with respect to the principal, premium, if any, and interest with respect to the Book-Entry Bonds to the extent of the sum or sums so paid. Except under the conditions of subsection (c) of this Section, no person other than DTC shall receive an executed Book-Entry Bond for each separate stated maturity. Upon delivery by DTC to the Trustee of written notice to the effect that DTC has determined to substitute a new nominee in place of Cede & Co., and subject to the provisions herein with respect to record dates, the term “Cede & Co.” in this Indenture shall refer to such new nominee of DTC. (c)In the event (i) DTC, including any successor as securities depository for a Series of Bonds, determines not to continue to act as securities depository for such Series of Bonds, or (ii) the Authority determines that the incumbent securities depository shall no longer so act, and delivers a written certificate to the Trustee to that effect, then the Authority will discontinue the book- entry system with the incumbent securities depository for such Series of Bonds. If the Authority determines to replace the incumbent securities depository for such Series of Bonds with another qualified securities depository, the Authority shall prepare or direct the preparation of a new single, separate fully registered Bond of such Series for the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Bonds of such Series of each maturity, registered in the name of such successor or substitute qualified securities depository, or its nominee, or make such other arrangement acceptable to the Authority, the Trustee and the successor securities depository for the Bonds of such Series as are not inconsistent with the terms of this Indenture. If the Authority fails to identify another qualified successor securities depository for such Series of Bonds to replace the incumbent securities depository, then the Bonds of such Series shall no longer be restricted to being registered in the Registration Books in the name of the incumbent securities depository or its nominee, but shall be registered in whatever name or names the incumbent securities depository for such Series of Bonds, or its nominee, shall designate. In such event the Authority shall execute, and deliver to the Trustee, a sufficient quantity of Bonds of such Series to carry out the transfers and exchanges provided in Sections 2.04, 2.08 and 2.09 hereof. All such Bonds of such Series shall be in fully registered form in Authorized Denominations. (d)Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture to the contrary, so long as any Book-Entry Bond is registered in the name of DTC, or its nominee, all payments with respect to the principal, premium, if any, and interest with respect to such Book-Entry Bond and all notices with respect to such Book-Entry Bond shall be made and given, respectively, as provided in the Representation Letter. 18 (e)In connection with any notice or other communication to be provided to Owners of Book-Entry Bonds pursuant to this Indenture by the Authority, the City or the Trustee with respect to any consent or other action to be taken by Owners, the Authority, the City or the Trustee, as the case may be, shall establish a record date for such consent or other action and give DTC notice of such record date not less than 15 calendar days in advance of such record date to the extent possible.

The Trustee may, on behalf of the Owners, intervene in any judicial proceeding to which the Authority or the City is a party and which, in the opinion of the Trustee and its counsel, affects the Bonds or the security therefor, and shall do so if requested in writing by the Owners of at least 5% of the aggregate principal amount of Bonds then Outstanding, provided the Trustee shall have no duty to take such action unless it has been indemnified to its reasonable satisfaction against all risk or liability arising from such action. The Trustee’s rights to immunities and protection from liability hereunder and its rights to payment of its fees and expenses shall survive its resignation or removal and final payment or defeasance of the Bonds. All indemnifications and releases from liability granted herein to the Trustee shall extend to the directors, officers, employees and agents of the Trustee (including its counsel). The permissive right of the Trustee to do things enumerated in this Indenture shall not be construed as a duty, and the Trustee shall not be answerable for other than its negligence or willful default.

If the Authority or the City elects to give the Trustee e-mail or facsimile instructions (or instructions by a similar electronic method) and the Trustee in its discretion elects to act upon such instructions, the Trustee’s understanding of such instructions shall be deemed controlling. 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 such instructions conflict or are inconsistent with a subsequent written instruction. The Authority and the City agree to assume all risks arising out of the use of such electronic methods to submit instructions and directions 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.

The net proceeds of the sale of the Series 2016 Bonds will be used to (i) finance the acquisition, construction and installation of certain capital improvements owned by the City, (ii) purchase a municipal bond insurance policy to guarantee payment of the principal of and interest on the Series 2016 Bonds, (iii) purchase a debt service reserve surety bond (the “Surety Bond”) for deposit in the reserve fund and (iv) pay the costs incurred in connection with the issuance of the Series 2016 Bonds. The Series 2016 Bonds are equally and ratably payable from base rental payments (the “Base Rental Payments”) to be made by the City of Lake Elsinore (the “City”) for the right to use certain real property consisting of the City’s City Hall, a fire station and certain park and recreation facilities, as further described herein (collectively, the “Property”), pursuant to a Lease Agreement, dated as of November 1, 2016 (the “Lease Agreement”), between the City, as lessee, and the Lake Elsinore Facilities Financing Authority(the “Authority”), as lessor. See “THE PROPERTY.” The Series 2016 Bonds will be issued pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of November 1, 2016 (the “Indenture”), by and among the Authority, the City and the Trustee. Pursuant to the Indenture, the Authority may issue additional bonds (the “Additional Bonds”) payable from the Base Rental Payments on a parity with the Series 2016 Bonds (the Series 2016 Bonds and any such Additional Bonds being collectively referred to as the “Bonds”). Pursuant to a Ground Lease, dated as of November 1, 2016 (the “Ground Lease”), by and between the City and the Authority, the City has leased the Property to the Authority. The Authority has subleased the Property to the City under the Lease Agreement. The Lease Agreement obligates the City to make Base Rental Payments to the Authority. The Trustee and the Authority have entered into an Assignment Agreement, dated as of November 1, 2016, pursuant to which the Authority has assigned to the Trustee for the benefit of the Bond Owners substantially all of the Authority’s right, title and interest in and to the Ground Lease and the Lease Agreement, including its right to receive the Base Rental Payments due under the Lease Agreement and to enforce any remedies in the event of a default by the City. The City will covenant under the Lease Agreement to take such action as may be necessary to include all Rental Payments, which are comprised of Base Rental Payments and Additional Rental Payments (which include taxes and assessments affecting the Property, administrative costs of the Authority relating to the Property, fees and expenses of the Trustee and other amounts payable under the Lease Agreement), due under the Lease Agreement as a separate line item in its annual budgets and to make the necessary annual appropriations therefor, subject to abatement as described herein. *Preliminary; subject to change. 2 Base Rental Payments are subject to complete or partial abatement in the event and to the extent that there is substantial interference with the City’s right to use and occupy the Property or any portion thereof. See “RISK FACTORS—Abatements.” Abatement of Base Rental Payments under the Lease Agreement, to the extent that payment is not made from alternative sources as set forth below, would result in all Bond Owners receiving less than the full amount of principal of and interest on the Bonds. To the extent that proceeds of insurance are available, Base Rental Payments (or a portion thereof) may be made during periods of abatement. See “RISK FACTORS—Abatements” and Appendix B — “SUMMARY OF PRINCIPAL LEGAL DOCUMENTS.” Payment of the principal of and interest on the Series 2016 Bonds will be insured by a municipal bond insurance policy (the “Policy”) to be issued by ____________ (the “Insurer”) concurrently with the issuance of the Series 2016 Bonds. See the caption “BOND INSURANCE.” A specimen of the Policy is set forth in Appendix H. THE SERIES 2016 BONDS ARE SPECIAL OBLIGATIONS OF THE AUTHORITY, PAYABLE SOLELY FROM BASE RENTAL PAYMENTS AND THE OTHER ASSETS PLEDGED THEREFOR UNDER THE INDENTURE. NEITHER THE FAITH AND CREDIT NOR THE TAXING POWER OF THE AUTHORITY, THE CITY OR THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA (THE “STATE”), OR ANY POLITICAL SUBDIVISION THEREOF, IS PLEDGED TO THE PAYMENT OF THE SERIES 2016 BONDS. THE AUTHORITY HAS NO TAXING POWER. THE OBLIGATION OF THE CITY TO MAKE THE BASE RENTAL PAYMENTS DOES NOT CONSTITUTE A DEBT OF THE CITY, THE STATE OR ANY POLITICAL SUBDIVISION THEREOF WITHIN THE MEANING OF ANY CONSTITUTIONAL OR STATUTORY DEBT LIMIT OR RESTRICTION, AND DOES NOT CONSTITUTE AN OBLIGATION FOR WHICH THE CITY OR THE STATE IS OBLIGATED TO LEVY OR PLEDGE ANY FORM OF TAXATION OR FOR WHICH THE CITY OR THE STATE HAS LEVIED OR PLEDGED ANY FORM OF TAXATION. The City has agreed to provide, or cause to be provided, to the Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board for purposes of Rule 15c2-12(b)(5) adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission certain annual financial information and operating data and, in a timely manner, notice of certain listed events. These covenants have been made in order to assist the Underwriter in complying with SEC Rule 15c2-12(b)(5). See “CONTINUING DISCLOSURE” herein for a description of the specific nature of the annual report and notices of listed events and a summary description of the terms of the disclosure agreement pursuant to which such reports are to be made.

Interest will be paid by check of the Trustee mailed by first class mail, postage prepaid, on each Interest Payment Date to the Series 2016 Bond Owners at their respective addresses shown on the Registration Books as of the close of business on the preceding Record Date. The principal and premium, if any, of the Series 2016 Bonds will be payable in lawful money of the United States of America upon presentation and surrender thereof upon maturity or earlier redemption at the Office of the Trustee. The Series 2016 Bonds will be subject to optional, mandatory sinking fund and extraordinary redemption as set forth herein. 4 Registration, Transfers and Exchanges The Series 2016 Bonds will be issued as fully registered bonds, registered in the name of Cede & Co. as nominee of DTC, and will be available to actual purchasers of the Series 2016 Bonds (the “Beneficial Owners”) in the denominations set forth above, under the book-entry system maintained by DTC, only through brokers and dealers who are or act through DTC Participants (as defined in Appendix F) as described herein. Beneficial Owners will not be entitled to receive physical delivery of the Series 2016 Bonds. See “THE SERIES 2016 BONDS—Book-Entry Only System.” Redemption Optional Redemption. The Series 2016 Bonds maturing on or after April 1, 20__, shall be subject to optional redemption, in whole or in part, on any date on or after April 1, 20__, in Authorized Denominations, from and to the extent of prepaid Base Rental Payments paid pursuant to the Lease Agreement, at a Redemption Price equal to the principal amount of the Series 2016 Bonds to be redeemed, plus accrued interest thereon to the date of redemption, without premium. Extraordinary Redemption from Condemnation Award or Insurance Proceeds. The Series 2016 Bonds are subject to redemption, in whole or in part, on any date, in denominations of $5,000 or any integral multiple thereof, from and to the extent of any insurance proceeds or condemnation award received with respect to all or a portion of the Property, deposited by the Trustee in the Redemption Fund pursuant to the Indenture, at a Redemption Price equal to the principal amount of the Series 2016 Bonds to be redeemed, plus accrued interest thereon to the date of redemption, without premium. Mandatory Sinking Fund Redemption. The Series 2016 Bonds maturing April 1, 20__ are subject to mandatory sinking fund redemption in part (by lot) on each April 1 on and after April 1, 20__, in integral multiples of $5,000 at a Redemption Price of the principal amount thereof plus accrued interest to the date fixed for redemption, without premium, in accordance with the following schedule: Sinking Fund Redemption Date (April 1) Principal Amount To Be Redeemed (maturity) Selection of Bonds for Redemption. Whenever provision is made in the Indenture for the redemption of less than all of the Bonds, the Trustee shall select the Bonds to be redeemed from all Bonds not previously called for redemption (a) with respect to any optional redemption of Bonds of a Series, among maturities of Bonds of such Series as directed in a Written Request of the Authority, (b) with respect to any redemption from and to the extent of any insurance proceeds or condemnation award received with respect to all or a portion of the Property and the corresponding provision of any Supplemental Indenture pursuant to which Additional Bonds are issued, among maturities of all Series of Bonds on a pro rata basis as nearly as practicable, and (c) with respect to any other redemption of Additional Bonds, among maturities as provided in the Supplemental Indenture pursuant to which such Additional Bonds are issued, and by lot among Bonds of the same Series with the same maturity in any manner which the Trustee in its sole discretion deemsappropriate and fair. For purposes of such selection, all Bonds willbe deemed to be comprised of separate $5,000 denominations and such separate denominations will be treated as separate Bonds which may be separately redeemed. Notice of Redemption. At least 20 but not more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for redemption, the Trustee on behalf and at the expense of the Authority will mail (by first class mail) notice of any redemption to the respective Owners of any Bonds designated for redemption at their respective addresses appearing on the Registration Books, provided, however, so long as the Bonds are registered in the name of the Nominee, notice shall be given in such manner as complies with the requirements of DTC. Such notice will state the date of the 5 notice, the redemption date, the redemption place and the Redemption Price and shall designate the CUSIP numbers, the Bond numbers and the maturity or maturities (except in the event of redemption of all of the Bonds of such maturity or maturities in whole) of the Bonds to be redeemed, and will require that such Bonds be then surrendered at the principal corporate trust office of the Trustee for redemption at the Redemption Price, giving notice also that further interest on such Bonds will not accrue from and after the date fixed for redemption. Such notice may state that such redemption is conditioned upon sufficient funds being on deposit on the redemption date to redeem the Bonds so called for redemption. Neither the failure to receive any notice so mailed, nor any defect in such notice, will affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of the Bonds or the cessation of accrual of interest thereon from and after the date fixed for redemption. Partial Redemption of Bonds. Upon surrender of any Bonds redeemed in part only, the Authority will execute and the Trustee will authenticate and deliver to the Owner thereof, at the expense of the Authority, a new Bond or Bonds of the same Series in authorized denominations equal in aggregate principal amount representing the unredeemed portion of the Bonds surrendered. Effect of Notice of Redemption. Notice having been mailed as aforesaid, and moneys for the Redemption Price, and the interest to the applicable date fixed for redemption, having been set aside in the Redemption Fund, the Bonds will become due and payable on said date, and, upon presentation and surrender thereof at the principal corporate trust office of the Trustee, said Bonds will be paid at the Redemption Price thereof, together with interest accrued and unpaid to said date. If, on said date fixed for redemption, moneys for the Redemption Price of all the Bonds to be redeemed, together with interest to said date, will be held by the Trustee so as to be available therefor on such date, and, if notice of redemption thereof has been mailed as aforesaid and not canceled, then, from and after said date, interest on said Bonds will cease to accrue and become payable. All moneys held by or on behalf of the Trustee for the redemption of Bonds will be held in trust for the account of the Owners of the Bonds so to be redeemed without liability to such Owners for interest thereon. All Bonds paid at maturity or redeemed prior to maturity pursuant to the provisions of the Indenture will be canceled upon surrender thereof and destroyed. Book-Entry Only System General. DTC will act as securities depository for the Series 2016 Bonds. The Series 2016 Bonds will be issued as fully-registered bonds registered in the name of Cede & Co. (DTC’s partnership nominee). One fully-registered Series 2016 Bond will be issued for each maturity of the Series 2016 Bonds, each in the initial aggregate principal amount of such maturity, and will be deposited with DTC. See Appendix F —“BOOK- ENTRY ONLY SYSTEM.” Transfer and Exchange of Bonds. The following provisions regarding the exchange and transfer of the Series 2016 Bonds apply only during any period in which the Series 2016 Bonds are not subject to DTC’s book- entry system. While the Series 2016 Bonds are subject to DTC’s book-entry system, their exchange and transfer will be effected through DTC and the Participants and will be subject to the procedures, rules and requirements established by DTC. Any Bond may, in accordance with its terms, be transferred upon the books required to be kept by the Trustee pursuant to the provisions of the Indenture 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, accompanied by delivery of a written instrument of transfer, duly executed in a form acceptable to the Trustee. Whenever any Bond or Bonds will be surrendered for transfer, the Authority will execute and the Trustee will authenticate and will deliver a new Bond or Bonds of the same Series in a like aggregate principal amount, in any Authorized Denomination. The Trustee will require the Bond Owner requesting such transfer to pay any tax or other governmental charge required to be paid with respect to such transfer. 6 The Bonds may be exchanged at the principal corporate trust office of the Trustee for a like aggregate principal amount of Bonds of the same Series of other authorized denominations. The Trustee will require the payment by the Bond Owner requesting such exchange of any tax or other governmental charge required to be paid with respect to such exchange. The Trustee is not obligated to make any transfer or exchange of Bonds of a Series during the period established by the Trustee for the selection of Bonds of such Series for redemption, or with respect to any Bonds of such Series selected for redemption. SECURITY AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE SERIES 2016 BONDS Pledge of Revenues The Series 2016 Bonds are equally and ratably payable from and secured by Base Rental Payments and certain amounts on deposit in the funds and accounts established under the Indenture. Base Rental Payments will be paid by the City from any and all legally available funds. See, “THE CITY,” “FINANCIAL INFORMATION” and “RISK FACTORS.” The City has covenanted in the Lease Agreement to take such action as may be necessary to include all Base Rental Payments and Additional Rental Payments due under the Lease Agreement as a separate line item in its annual budgets and to make the necessary annual appropriations therefor. The Authority, pursuant to the Assignment Agreement, will assign to the Trustee for the benefit of the Series 2016 Bond Owners all of the Authority’s right, title and interest in and to the Ground Lease and the Lease Agreement, including, without limitation, its right to receive Base Rental Payments to be paid by the City under and pursuant to the Lease Agreement; provided that, the Authority will retain the rights to indemnification and to payment of reimbursement of its reasonable costs and expenses under the Lease Agreement. The City will pay Base Rental Payments directly to the Trustee, as assignee of the Authority. See “—Base Rental Payments” below. Pursuant to the Indenture, the Authority may issue Additional Bonds payable from the Base Rental Payments on a parity with the Series 2016 Bonds. See Appendix B —“SUMMARY OF THE PRINCIPAL LEGAL DOCUMENTS—The Indenture—Additional Bonds.” Subject only to the provisions of the Indenture permitting the application thereof for the purposes and on the terms and conditions set forth in the Indenture, all of the Base Rental Payments and any other amounts (including proceeds of the sale of the Bonds) held in the Base Rental Payment Fund, the Interest Fund, the Principal Fund and the Redemption Fund are pledged by the Authority pursuant to the Indenture to secure the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds in accordance with their terms, the provisions of the Indenture and the Act. Said pledge constitutes a first lien on such assets. THE SERIES 2016 BONDS ARE SPECIAL OBLIGATIONS OF THE AUTHORITY, PAYABLE SOLELY FROM BASE RENTAL PAYMENTS AND THE OTHER ASSETS PLEDGED THEREFOR UNDER THE INDENTURE. NEITHER THE FAITH AND CREDIT NOR THE TAXING POWER OF THE AUTHORITY, THE CITY OR THE STATE, OR ANY POLITICAL SUBDIVISION THEREOF, IS PLEDGED TO THE PAYMENT OF THE SERIES 2016 BONDS. THE AUTHORITY HAS NO TAXING POWER. 7 Base Rental Payments Rental Payments, including Base Rental Payments, will be paid by the City to the Authority for and in consideration of the right to use and occupy the Property and in consideration of the continued right to the quiet use and enjoyment thereof during each Rental Period for which such Rental Payments are to be paid. Each Base Rental Payment will be deposited with the Trustee no later than the 15th day of the month next preceding each Interest Payment Date (the “Base Rental Deposit Date”) on which such Base Rental Payment is due. All Base Rental Payments will be paid directly by the City to the Trustee, and if received by the Authority at any time will be transferred by the Authority to the Trustee within one Business Day after the receipt thereof. All Base Rental Payments received by the Trustee will be deposited by the Trustee in the Base Rental Payment Fund. Pursuant to the Indenture, on the Business Day immediately preceding each Interest Payment Date and on the Business Day immediately preceding each Principal Payment Date, the Trustee will transfer amounts in the Base Rental Payment Fund as are necessary to the Interest Fund and the Principal Fund to provide for the payment of the interest on and principal of the Series 2016 Bonds. Scheduled Base Rental Payments relating to the Series 2016 Bondsare set forth below under the heading “BASE RENTAL PAYMENT SCHEDULE.” THE OBLIGATION OF THE CITY TO MAKE THE BASE RENTAL PAYMENTS DOES NOT CONSTITUTE A DEBT OF THE CITY OR THE STATE OR OF ANY POLITICAL SUBDIVISION THEREOF WITHIN THE MEANING OF ANY CONSTITUTIONAL OR STATUTORY DEBT LIMIT OR RESTRICTION, AND DOES NOT CONSTITUTE AN OBLIGATION FOR WHICH THE CITY OR THE STATE IS OBLIGATED TO LEVY OR PLEDGE ANY FORM OF TAXATION OR FOR WHICH THE CITY OR THE STATE HAS LEVIED OR PLEDGED ANY FORM OF TAXATION. Additional Rental Payments For the right to use and occupy the Property, the Lease Agreement requires the City to pay, as Additional Rental Payments thereunder, in addition to the Base Rental Payments, such amounts as shall be required for the payment of the following: (i)All taxes and assessments of any type or nature charged to the Authority or the City or affecting the Property or the respective interests or estates of the Authority or the City therein. (ii)All reasonable administrative costs of the Authority relating to the Property including, but without limiting the generality of the foregoing, salaries, wages, fees and expenses, compensation and indemnification of the Trustee payable by the Authority under the Indenture, fees of auditors, accountants, attorneys or engineers, and all other necessary and reasonable administrative costs of the Authority or charges required to be paid by it in order to maintain its existence or to comply with the terms of the Indenture or the Lease Agreement or to defend the Authority and its members, officers, agents and employees. (iii)Insurance premiums for all insurance required pursuant to the Lease Agreement. (iv)Any amounts with respect to the Lease Agreement or the Bonds required to be rebated to the federal government in accordance with section 148(f) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. (v)All other payments required to be paid by the City under the provisions of the Lease Agreement or the Indenture. Amounts constituting Additional Rental Payments payable under the Lease Agreement will be paid by the City directly to the person or persons to whom such amounts are payable. The City will pay all such amounts when due or at such later time as such amounts may be paid without penalty or, in any other case, within 60 days 8 after notice in writing from the Trustee to the City stating the amount of Additional Rental Payments then due and payable and the purpose thereof. Abatement Base Rental Payments and Additional Rental Payments are paid by the City in each Rental Period for and in consideration of the right to use and occupy the Property. Except as otherwise specifically provided in the Lease Agreement, during any period in which, by reason of material damage to, or destruction or condemnation of, the Property, or any defect in title to the Property, there is substantial interference with the City’s right to use and occupy any portion of the Property, Rental Payments are subject to abatement proportionately, and the City waives the benefits of Civil Code Sections 1932(1), 1932(2) and 1933(4) and any and all other rights to terminate the Lease Agreement by virtue of any such interference, and the Lease Agreement will continue in full force and effect. The amount of such abatement will be agreed upon by the City and the Authority; provided, however, that the Rental Payments due for any Rental Period may not exceed the annual fair rental value of that portion of the Property available for use and occupancy by the City during such Rental Period. Any such abatement will continue for the period commencing with the date of interference resulting from such damage, destruction, condemnation or title defect and, with respect to damage to or destruction of the Property, ending with the substantial completion of the work of repair or replacement of the Property, or the portion thereof so damaged or destroyed; and the term of the Lease Agreement will be extended as provided in the Lease Agreement, except that the term will in no event be extended tenyears beyond the stated termination date of the Lease Agreement. The Trustee cannot terminate the Lease Agreement in the event of such substantial interference. Abatement of Base Rental Payments and Additional Rental Payments is not an event of default under the Lease Agreement and does not permit the Trustee to take any action or avail itself of any remedy against the City. See Appendix B —“SUMMARY OF THE PRINCIPAL LEGAL DOCUMENTS—The Lease Agreement–Rental Abatement.” Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that moneys are available for the payment of Rental Payments due under the Lease Agreement in any of the funds and accounts established under the Indenture (including as a result of the availability of insurance proceeds), such Rental Payments will not be abated as provided above but, rather, will be payable by the City as a special obligation payable solely from said funds and accounts. See “RISK FACTORS—Abatements” and Appendix B — “SUMMARY OF THE PRINCIPAL LEGAL DOCUMENTS.” Additional Bonds The Authority may at any time issue one or more Series of Additional Bonds payable from Base Rental Payments on a parity with all other Bonds issued under the Indenture, subject to, among others, the following conditions: (a)The Authority shall be in compliance with all agreements, conditions, covenants and terms contained herein, in the Lease Agreement and in the Ground Lease required to be observed or performed by it; (b)The City shall be in compliance with all agreements, conditions, covenants and terms contained herein, in the Lease Agreement and in the Ground Lease required to be observed or performed by it; and (c)The Ground Lease shall have been amended, to the extent necessary, and the Lease Agreement shall have been amended so as to increase the Base Rental Payments payable by the City thereunder by an aggregate amount equal to the principal of and interest on such Additional Bonds, payable at such times and in such manner as may be necessary to provide for the payment of the principal of and interest on such Additional Bonds; provided, however, that no such amendment shall be made such that the sum of Base Rental Payments, including any increase in the Base Rental Payments as a result of such amendment, plus Additional 9 Rental Payments, in any Rental Period shall be in excess of the annual fair rental value of the Property after taking into account the use of the proceeds of any Additional Bonds issued in connection therewith (evidence of the satisfaction of such condition shall be made by a Written Certificate of the City). Nothing contained in the Indenture limits the issuance of any bonds or other obligations payable from Base Rental Payments if, after the issuance and delivery of such bonds or other obligations, none of the Bonds theretofore issued hereunder will be Outstanding. See Appendix B —“SUMMARY OF THE PRINCIPAL LEGAL DOCUMENTS—THE INDENTURE—ISSUANCE OF BONDS; APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS— Conditions for the Issuance of Additional Bonds.” Substitution, Addition and Removal of Property The Authority and the City may amend the Lease Agreement to substitute alternate real property for any portion of the Property to add additional real property or to release a portion of the Property from the Lease Agreement, upon compliance with all of the conditions set forth in the Lease Agreement and described below. After a substitution or release, the portion of the Property for which the substitution or release has been effected will be released from the leasehold encumbrance of the Lease Agreement. The Lease Agreement provides that there will be no reduction in or abatement of the Base Rental Payments due from the City thereunder as a result of such substitution or release. Any such substitution or release is subject to the following specific conditions precedent to such substitution or release: (a)an independent certified real estate appraiser selected by the City finds (and delivers a certificate to the City and the Trustee setting forth its findings) that the Property, as constituted after such substitution or release, (i) has an annual fair rental value at least equal to the maximum Base Rental Payments payable by the City in any Rental Period, and (ii) has a useful life in excess of the final maturity of any Outstanding Bonds. (b)the City obtains or causes to be obtained a CLTA or ALTA title insurance policy or policies with respect to any substituted property in an amount at least equal to the aggregate principal amount of any Outstanding Bonds of the type and with the endorsements described in the Lease Agreement; (c)the City provides the Trustee with an opinion of counsel to the effect that such substitution or release will not, in and of itself, cause the interest on the Bonds to be included in gross income for federal income tax purposes; (d)the City, the Authority and the Trustee execute, and the City causes to be recorded with the Riverside County Recorder, any document necessary to reconvey to the City the portion of the Property being released and to include any substituted real property in the description of the Property contained in the Lease Agreement and in the Ground Lease; and (e)the City provides notice of such substitution to each rating agency then rating the Bonds. See Appendix B —“SUMMARY OF THE PRINCIPAL LEGAL DOCUMENTS—The Lease Agreement— Substitution or Release of the Property” Action on Default Should the City default under the Lease Agreement, the Trustee, as assignee of the Authority under the Lease Agreement, may terminate the Lease Agreement and recover certain damages from the City, or may retain the Lease Agreement and hold the City liable for all Base Rental Payments thereunder on an annual basis, and will have the right to re-enter and re-let the Property. In the event such re-letting occurs, the City would be liable for any resulting deficiency in Base Rental Payments. Base Rental Payments may not be accelerated upon a 10 default under the Lease Agreement. See “RISK FACTORS—Limited Recourse on Default; No Acceleration of Base Rental.” For purposes of certain actions of Bond Owners under the Indenture and the Lease Agreement, such as certain consents and amendments and the direction of remedies following default, Series 2016 Bond Owners do not act alone and may not control such matters to the extent such matters are not supported by the requisite number of the Owners of all Bonds and Additional Bonds, if any. For a description of the events of default and permitted remedies of the Trustee (as assignee of the Authority) contained in the Lease Agreement and the Indenture, see Appendix B —”SUMMARY OF THE PRINCIPAL LEGAL DOCUMENTS—The Lease Agreement—Default” and “—The Indenture—Events of Default,” “—Other Remedies of the Trustee,” and “Limitation on Suits.” Reserve Fund The Indenture establishes a Reserve Fund, which is required to be maintained in an amount equal to $________ (the “Reserve Fund Requirement”). Moneys in the Reserve Fund will be held in trust as a reserve for the payment when due of all debt service payments on the Series 2016 Bonds. Pursuant to the Indenture, the Authority may determine that the Reserve Fund be funded with cash, a reserve fund surety or a combination thereof. See Appendix B —“SUMMARY OF THE PRINCIPAL LEGAL DOCUMENTS —The Indenture— Reserve Fund.” Concurrently with the issuance of the Series 2016 Bonds, the Surety Bond in the stated amount equal to the Reserve Fund Requirement will be deposited in the Reserve Fund. [Reserve Surety Provider language to come] Insurance The Lease Agreement requires the City to maintain or cause to be maintained fire, lightning and special extended coverage insurance (which includes coverage for vandalism and malicious mischief, but need not include coverage for earthquake damage) on all improvements constituting any part of the Property in an amount equal to the greater of 100% of the replacement cost of such improvements or 100% of the outstanding principal amount of the Bonds. The City has an insurance policy which provides replacement cost coverage. All insurance required to be maintained pursuant to the Lease Agreement may be subject to a deductible in an amount not to exceed $500,000. The City’s obligation to maintain the insurance described above (except for rental interruption insurance) may be satisfied by self-insurance, provided such self-insurance complies with the requirements of the Lease Agreement. See Appendix B —”SUMMARY OF THE PRINCIPAL LEGAL DOCUMENTS—The Lease Agreement—Insurance.” The Lease Agreement requires the City to maintain rental interruption insurance to cover the Authority’s loss, total or partial, of Base Rental Payments resulting from the loss, total or partial, of the use of any part of the Property as a result of any of the hazards covered by the casualty insurance described in the preceding paragraph, in an amount sufficient at all times to pay an amount not less than the product of two times the maximum amount of Base Rental Payments scheduled to be paid during any Rental Period. The City is not permitted to self-insure its obligation to maintain rental interruption insurance. The City is also required to maintain or cause to be maintained, throughout the term of the Lease Agreement, a standard commercial general liability insurance policy or policies in protection of the City, the Authority and their respective members, officers, agents and employees, and workers’ compensation insurance as described in Appendix B —“SUMMARY OF THE PRINCIPAL LEGAL DOCUMENTS—The Lease Agreement—Insurance.” 11 The City is required under the Lease Agreement to provide, at its own expense, one or more CLTA or ALTA title insurance policies for the Property, in the aggregate amount of not less than the initial aggregate principal amount of the Series 2016 Bonds, insuring the fee interest of the City in the Property, the Authority’s leasehold estate in the Property under the Ground Lease, and the City’s subleasehold estate in the Property under the Lease Agreement, subject only to Permitted Encumbrances, and providing that all proceeds thereunder are payable to the Trustee for the benefit of the Bond Owners. BOND INSURANCE [Bond insurer language to come from insurer] SOURCES AND USES OF FUNDS The sources and uses of funds with respect to the Series 2016 Bonds are shown below. Series 2016 Bonds Sources Principal Amount of Series 2016 Bonds $ Net Original Issue Premium/Discount Total Sources $ Uses Construction Fund $ Cost of Issuance Fund(1) Total Uses $ (1)Includes legal, financial advisory, rating agency, Underwriter’s Discount, premiums for the Policy and the Surety Bond, printing fees and other miscellaneous costs of issuance. 12 BASE RENTAL PAYMENT SCHEDULE Following is the annual schedule of Base Rental Payments due with respect to the Series 2016 Bonds: Lease Payment Date Series 2016 Bond Principal Series 2016 Bond Interest Total Series 2016 Bond Payments $ $ $ Total $___________$$ 13 THE 2016 PROJECT The 2016 Project consists of the acquisition, construction and installation of certain capital improvements for the City’s La Laguna Resort and Boat Launch (the “2016 Project”). In 2012, the City completed construction of the La Laguna Resort and Boat Launch, a recreational boat launch on the shore of Lake Elsinore. The 2016 Project consists of improvements to and expansion of the La Laguna Resort and Boat Launch including: (1) a new main entry, gate house and check-in building; (2) construction of office space, laundry facilities, a concession stand, a bait and tackle shop, a dump station and a clubhouse; (3) construction of RV and boat parking areas; (4) improvements to accommodate 236 campsites including sewer and water main improvements, restrooms and shower facilities; and (5) construction of recreational areas which are expected to include, a gazebo, dog park, basketball courts, putting greenand share structures covering picnic/barbeque areas. In April 2015, the City awarded a contract for the design of the various aspects of the 2016 Project. The City expects to award a construction contract for the 2016 Project and commence construction in January 2017 and to complete construction in February 2018. The City has received all necessary environmental and other approvals in connection with the 2016 Project. The City undertook feasibility studies and rate modeling to project the increase in revenues to be generated by the La Laguna Resort and Boat Launch upon completion of the 2016 Project. Based on such studies, the City projectsrevenues generated at 40% occupancy/usage of the 2016 Project (i.e. camping facilities, parking fees and revenues from vendors) to exceed projected operation and maintenance costs and debt service on the Series 2016 Bonds. However, the City can make no assurance as to the amounts of such revenues actually generated or as to the ultimate financial success of the 2016 Project. The success of the 2016 Project may be reliant in part on the water quality of Lake Elsinore. See “RISK FACTORSRisks Affecting the Success of or the 2016 Project” herein. The Series 2016 Bonds are secured by and payable from Base Rental Payments and certain amounts on deposit in the funds and accounts established under the Indenture and there is no special or direct pledge of revenues generated by the 2016 Project to pay debt service on the Series 2016 Bonds. THE PROPERTY The Property consists of the following City-owned facilities: City Hall. The City’s City Hall is located at 130 South Main Street, Lake Elsinore, California and consists of an office building of approximately 7,796 square feet. The City Hall facility includes an auditorium which includes the office space adjacent to the City Council chambers. The City Hall facility was completed in 1934. Fire Station No. 10.The City’s Fire Station No. 10 is located at 410 W. Graham Street and consists of a facility of approximately 5,000 square feet.

Also located on the parcel for Fire Station No. 10 and part of the Property are a community center building and a parking lot. Fire Station No. 10 was completed in 1950. Rosetta Canyon Park. Rosetta Canyon Park is located at 39423 Ardenwood Way and consists of a park facility of approximately 16 acres. Completed amenities located on the park include lighted tennis courts, basketball courts, picnic areas, a two-story concession stand, lighted synthetic turf football/soccer field and five ball fields. Rosetta Canyon Park was completed in [2016]. The City has the right to substitute or release all or portion of the Property subject to certain conditions precedent. See “SECURITY AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE SERIES 2016 BONDSSubstitution and Removal of Property.” 14 THE AUTHORITY Organization and Membership The Authority was formed pursuant to the provisions of Article 1 (commencing with Section 6500) of Chapter 5 of Division 7 of Title 1 of the Government Code of the State of California (the “Act”) and the Joint Exercise of Powers Agreement, dated as of September 1, 2016 (the “JPA Agreement”), by and between the City and the Parking Authority of the City of Lake Elsinore (the “Parking Authority”). The Authority was formed by and between the City and the Parking Authorityto assist in financing the acquisition, construction, installation and improvement of public facilities and other public capital improvements. The Authority functions as a public entity, separate and apart from the City and the Parking Authority, and is administered by a five-member governing board consisting of the members of the City Council. The City Attorney serves as counsel to the Authority. The Authority has no employees and all staff work is performed by the City or consultants. Powers Under the JPA Agreement, the Authority is empowered to assist in financing the acquisition, construction, installation and improvement of public facilities and other public capital improvements through the issuance of bonds in accordance with the Act. To exercise its powers, the Authority is authorized, in its own name, to do all necessary acts, including but not limited to making and entering into contracts; employing agents and employees; and to sue or be sued in its own name. THE CITY Information with respect to the City, including financial information and certain economic and demographic information is provided in Appendix A —“THE CITY” attached hereto. A copy of the financial statements of the City for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015 is attached hereto as Appendix C which should be read in its entirety. See Appendix B “AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF THE CITY FOR THE YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2015.” RISK FACTORS The following factors, along with the other information in this Official Statement, should be considered by potential investors in evaluating the purchase of the Series 2016 Bonds. However, they do not purport to be an exhaustive listing of risks and other considerations which may be relevant to an investment in the Series 2016 Bonds. In addition, the order in which the following factors are presented is not intended to reflect the relative importance of any such risks. General Considerations – Security for the Series 2016 Bonds The Series 2016 Bonds are special obligations of the Authority, payable solely from Base Rental Payments and the other assets pledged under the Indenture. Neither the faith and credit nor the taxing power of the Authority, the City or the State, or any political subdivision thereof, is pledged to the payment of the Series 2016 Bonds. The Authority has no taxing power. The obligation of the City to make the Base Rental Payments does not constitute a debt of the City or the State or of any political subdivision thereof within the meaning of any constitutional or statutory debt limit or restriction, and does not constitute an obligation for which the City or the State is obligated to levy or pledge any form of taxation or for which the City or the State has levied or pledged any form of taxation. 15 Although the Lease Agreement does not create a pledge, lien or encumbrance upon the funds of the City, the City is obligated under the Lease Agreement to pay the Base Rental Payments and Additional Rental Payments from any source of legally available funds and the City has covenanted in the Lease Agreement that it will take such action as may be necessary to include all Base Rental Payments and Additional Rental Payments due under the Lease Agreement as a separate line item in its annual budgets and to make necessary annual appropriations for all such Rental Payments, subject to abatement. The City is currently liable and may become liable on other obligations payable from general revenues. The City has the capacity to enter into other obligations which may constitute additional charges against its revenues. To the extent that additional obligations are incurred by the City, the funds available to make Base Rental Payments may be decreased. In the event the City’s revenue sources are less than its total obligations, the City could choose to fund other activities before making Base Rental Payments and other payments due under the Lease Agreement. The same result could occur if, because of California Constitutional limits on expenditures, the City is not permitted to appropriate and spend all of its available revenues. However, the City’s appropriations have never exceeded the limitation on appropriations under Article XIIIB of the California Constitution. See “CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY LIMITATIONS ON TAXES AND APPROPRIATIONS—Article XIIIB of the California Constitution.” Abatements In the event of substantial interference with the City’s right to use and occupy any portion of the Property by reason of damage to, or destruction or condemnation of the Property, or any defects in title to the Property, Base Rental Payments will be subject to abatement. See “SECURITY AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE SERIES 2016 BONDS—Abatement.” In the event that such portion of the Property, if damaged or destroyed by an insured casualty, could not be replaced during the period of time in which proceeds of the City’s rental interruption insurance will be available in lieu of Base Rental Payments, plus the period for which funds are available from the funds and accounts established under the Indenture, or in the event that casualty insurance proceeds are insufficient to provide for complete repair or replacement of such portion of the Property or redemption of the Series 2016 Bonds, there could be insufficient funds to make payments to Owners in full. It is not always possible to predict the circumstances under which abatement of rental may occur. In addition, there is no statute, case or other law specifying how such an abatement of rental should be measured. For example, it is not clear whether fair rental value is established as of commencement of the lease or at the time of the abatement. If the latter, it may be that the value of the Property is substantially higher or lower than its value at the time of the execution and delivery of the Series 2016 Bonds. Abatement, therefore, could have an uncertain and material adverse effect on the security for and payment of the Series 2016 Bonds. If damage, destruction, title defect or eminent domain proceedings with respect to the Property results in abatement of the Base Rental Payments related to such Property and if such abated Base Rental Payments, if any, together with moneys from rental interruption or use and occupancy insurance (in the event of any insured loss due to damage or destruction), and eminent domain proceeds, if any, are insufficient to make all payments of principal and interest with respect to the Series 2016 Bonds during the period that the Property is being replaced, repaired or reconstructed, then all or a portion of such payments of principal and interest may not be made. Under the Lease Agreement and the Indenture, no remedy is available to the Series 2016 Bond Owners for nonpayment under such circumstances. Seismic Activity All jurisdictions in California are subject to the effects of damaging earthquakes. Earthquakes are considered a threat to the City due to the highly active seismic region and the proximity of fault zones, which could influence the entire southern coastal portion of the State. However, no major earthquake has caused substantial damage to the community. 16 An earthquake along one of the faults in the vicinity, either known or unknown, could cause a number of casualties and extensive property damage. The effects of such a quake could be aggravated by aftershocks and secondary effects such as fires, landslides, dam failure, liquefaction and other threats to public health, safety and welfare. The potential direct and indirect consequences of a major earthquake can easily exceed the resources of the City and would require a high level of self-help, coordination and cooperation. No active faults are known to pass through the City. The closest active faults are the Elsinore-Glen Ivy fault (10.1 miles away), the Chino fault (11.1 miles away), and the Newport Inglewood fault (14.4 miles away). The occurrence of surface rupture on these segments would not be expected to produce fault surface rupture within the City. The two known local faults, Aliso and the Cristianitos, are thought to be inactive. An earthquake on either of these two faults would be particularly damaging to residential buildings, especially to those of older wooden or unreinforced masonry construction, or to mobile homes, although the City currently has no mobile homes. Risks Affecting the Success of or the 2016 Project The City’s projections of revenues to be generated from the 2016 Project are dependent, in part, on the attraction of the recreational activities available at Lake Elsinore. Such recreational facilities include, boating, fishing and other water sports. From time-to-time, Lake Elsinore experiences blue-green algae bloom, which can result in elevated levels of toxins in the lake water posinghealth risks to humans. In recent years, decreasing lake levels as a result of the ongoing drought in California has led has led to rising lake water temperature. Such conditions has resulted in more common occurrences of the algae bloom. The City conducts ongoing monitoring of the lake level and the concentration of toxins in the lake water. When the concentration of the resulting toxins in the water increases to a degree that is harmful to humans, the City has issued health warnings to and public safety information to residents and visitors. The presence of toxins in the lake as a result of blue-green algae bloom could lead to reduced usage of the facilities associated with the 2016 Project and reduced tourism to the City as a whole. The City can make no assurance as to the amounts of revenues actually generated or as to the ultimate financial success of the 2016 Project. The Series 2016 Bonds are secured by and payable from Base Rental Payments and certain amounts on deposit in the funds and accounts established under the Indenture and there is no special or direct pledge of revenues generated by the 2016 Project to pay debt service on the Series 2016 Bonds. Hazardous Substances An additional environmental condition that may result in the reduction in the assessed value of property, and therefor property tax revenue available to make Base Rental Payments, would be the discovery of a hazardous substance that would limit the beneficial use of taxable property within the City. In general, the owners and operators of a property may be required by law to remedy conditions of the property relating to releases or threatened releases of hazardous substances. The owner or operator may be required to remedy a hazardous substance condition of property whether or not the owner or operator has anything to do with creating or handling the hazardous substance. The effect, therefore, should any of the property within the City be affected by a hazardous substance, could be to reduce the marketability and value of the property by the costs of remedying the condition. The City is not aware of any hazardous substances located on the Property. Other Financial Matters Future weakness in the economy of the State and the United States could result in the decline of the City’s general revenues. Such financial matters may have a detrimental impact on the City’s General Fund, and, accordingly, may reduce the City’s ability to make Base Rental Payments. See “CITY FINANCIAL INFORMATION.” 17 Substitution, Addition and Removal of Property; Additional Bonds The Authority and the City may amend the Lease Agreement to substitute alternate real property for any portion of or add additional real property to the Property or to release a portion of the Property from the Lease Agreement, upon compliance with all of the conditions set forth in the Lease Agreement and summarized below. After a substitution or release, the portion of the Property for which the substitution or release has been effected will be released from the leasehold encumbrance of the Lease Agreement. See “SECURITY AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE SERIES 2016 BONDS―Substitution, Addition and Removal of Property.” Moreover, the Authority may issue Additional Bonds secured by Base Rental Payments which are increased from current levels. Although the Lease Agreement requires, among other things, that the Property, as constituted after such substitution or release, have an annual fair rental value at least equal to the maximum Base Rental Payments payable by the City in any Rental Period, it does not require that such Property have an annual fair rental value equal to the annual fair rental value of the Property at the time of substitution or release. Thus, a portion of the Property could be replaced with less valuable real property, or could be released altogether. Such a replacement or release could have an adverse impact on the security for the Series 2016 Bonds, particularly if an event requiring abatement of Base Rental Payments were to occur subsequent to such substitution or release. See Appendix B —“SUMMARY OF THE PRINCIPAL LEGAL DOCUMENTS—The Lease Agreement— Substitution or Release of the Property.” The Indenture requires, among other things, that upon the issuance of Additional Bonds, the Ground Lease and the Lease Agreement will be amended, to the extent necessary, so as to increase the Base Rental Payments payable by the City thereunder by an aggregate amount equal to the principal of and interest on such Additional Bonds; provided, however, that no such amendment will be made such that the sum of Base Rental Payments, including any increase in the Base Rental Payments as a result of such amendment, plus Additional Rental Payments, in any Rental Period is in excess of the annual fair rental value of the Property after taking into account the use of the proceeds of any Additional Bonds issued in connection therewith. No Limitation on Incurring Additional Obligations Neither the Lease Agreement nor the Indenture contains any limitations on the ability of the City to enter into other obligations, without the consent of the Owners of the Outstanding Bonds, which may constitute additional obligations payable from its General Fund. To the extent that the City incurs such additional obligations, the City’s funds available to make Base Rental Payments may be decreased. The City is currently liable on other obligations payable from General Fund revenues. See “THE CITY—Indebtedness” above and Appendix C —“AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF THE CITY FOR THE YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2015.” Limited Recourse on Default; No Acceleration of Base Rental Failure by the City to make Base Rental Payments or other payments required to be made under the Lease Agreement, or failure to observe and perform any other terms, covenants or conditions contained in the Lease Agreement or in the Indenture for a period of 30 days after written notice of such failure and request that it be remedied has been given to the City by the Authority or the Trustee, constitute events of default under the Lease Agreement and permit the Trustee or the Authority to pursue any and all remedies available. In the event of a default, notwithstanding anything in the Lease Agreement or in the Indenture to the contrary, there is no right under any circumstances to accelerate the Base Rental Payments or otherwise declare any Base Rental Payments not then in default to be immediately due and payable, nor do the Authority or the Trustee have any right to re-enter or re-let the Property except as described in the Lease Agreement. The enforcement of any remedies provided in the Lease Agreement and the Indenture could prove both expensive and time consuming. If the City defaults on its obligation to make Base Rental Payments with respect 18 to the Property, the Trustee, as assignee of the Authority, may retain the Lease Agreement and hold the City liable for all Base Rental Payments thereunder on an annual basis and enforce any other terms or provisions of the Lease Agreement to be kept or performed by the City. Alternatively, the Authority or the Trustee may terminate the Lease Agreement, retake possession of the Property and proceed against the City to recover damages pursuant to the Lease Agreement. Due to the specialized nature of the Property or any property substituted therefor pursuant to the Lease Agreement and the restrictions on its use, no assurance can be given that the Trustee will be able to re-let the Property so as to provide rental income sufficient to make all payments of principal of, interest and premium, if any, on the Series 2016 Bonds when due, and the Trustee is not empowered to sell the Property for the benefit of the Owners of the Series 2016 Bonds. Any suit for money damages would be subject to limitations on legal remedies against cities in California, including a limitation on enforcement of judgments against funds needed to serve the public welfare and interest. See “SECURITY AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE SERIES 2016 BONDS” and Appendix B —“SUMMARY OF PRINCIPAL LEGAL DOCUMENTS—The Lease Agreement—Default.” Possible Insufficiency of Insurance Proceeds The Lease Agreement obligates the City to keep in force various forms of insurance, subject to deductibles, for repair or replacement of the Property in the event of damage, destruction or title defects, subject to certain exceptions. The Authority and the City make no representation as to the ability of any insurer to fulfill its obligations under any insurance policy obtained pursuant to the Lease Agreement and no assurance can be given as to the adequacy of any such insurance to fund necessary repair or replacement or to pay principal of and interest on the Series 2016 Bonds when due. In addition, certain risks, such as earthquakes and floods, are not required under the Lease Agreement, and therefore, are not carried by the City. See “SECURITY AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE SERIES 2016 BONDS—Insurance.” Limitations on Remedies The rights of the Owners of the Series 2016 Bonds are subject to the limitations on legal remedies against cities in the State, including a limitation on enforcement of judgments against funds needed to serve the public welfare and interest. Additionally, enforceability of the rights and remedies of the Owners of the Series 2016 Bonds, and the obligations incurred by the City, may become subject to the federal bankruptcy code (Title 11, United States Code) (the “Bankruptcy Code”) and applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, or similar laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, now or hereafter in effect, equity principles which may limit the specific enforcement under State law of certain remedies, the exercise by the United States of America of the powers delegated to it by the U.S. Constitution, the reasonable and necessary exercise, in certain exceptional situations, of the police powers inherent in the sovereignty of the State and its governmental bodies in the interest of serving a significant and legitimate public purpose and the limitations on remedies against cities in the State. Bankruptcy proceedings, or the exercise of powers by the Federal or State government, if initiated, could subject the Owners of the Series 2016 Bonds to judicial discretion and interpretation of their rights in bankruptcy or otherwise, and consequently may entail risks of delay, limitation, or modification of their rights. Under Chapter 9 of the Bankruptcy Code, which governs the bankruptcy proceedings for public agencies such as the City, there are no involuntary petitions in bankruptcy. If the City were to file a petition under Chapter 9 of the Bankruptcy Code, the Owners of the Series 2016 Bonds, the Trustee and the Authority could be prohibited from taking any steps to enforce their rights under the Lease Agreement, and from taking any steps to collect amounts due from the City under the Lease Agreement. Loss of Tax Exemption As discussed under the heading “TAX MATTERS,” the interest on the Series 2016 Bondscould become includable in gross income for purposes of federal income taxation retroactive to the date of delivery of the Series 2016 Bonds, as a result of acts or omissions of the Authority or the City in violation of its covenants in the Indenture and the Lease Agreement. Should such an event of taxability occur, the Series 2016 Bonds would 19 not be subject to a special redemption and would remain Outstanding until maturity or until redeemed under the redemption provisions contained in the Indenture. No Liability of Authority to the Owners Except as expressly provided in the Indenture, the Authority will not have any obligation or liability to the Owners of the Series 2016 Bonds with respect to the payment when due of the Base Rental Payments by the City, or with respect to the performance by the City of other agreements and covenants required to be performed by it contained in the Lease Agreement or the Indenture, or with respect to the performance by the Trustee of any right or obligation required to be performed by it contained in the Indenture. STATE OF CALIFORNIA BUDGET INFORMATION State Budget The following information concerning the State’s budget for fiscal year 2016-17 has been obtained from publicly available information that the City believes to be reliable; however, the City takes no responsibility as to the accuracy or completeness thereof and has not independently verified such information. Information about the State budget is regularly available at various State-maintained websites. Text of proposed and adopted budgets may be found at the website of the State Department of Finance (the “DOF”), http://www.dof.ca.gov, under the heading “California Budget.” An impartial analysis of the budget is posted by the Legislative Analyst’s Office (the “LAO”) at http://www.lao.ca.gov. In addition, various State official statements, many of which contain a summary of the current and past State budgets and the impact of those budgets on counties in the State, may be found at the website of the State Treasurer, http://www.treasurer.ca.gov. The information referred to is prepared by the respective State agency maintaining each website and not by the City, the Authority or the Underwriter, and the City, the Authority and the Underwriter take no responsibility for the continued accuracy of these Internet addresses or for the accuracy, completeness or timeliness of information posted there, and such information is not incorporated herein by these references. State Budget for Fiscal Year 2016-17 On June 27, 2016, the Governor signed into the law the State budget for fiscal year 2016-17 (the “2016- 17 Budget”). The following information is drawn from the Department of Finance’s summary of the 2016-17 Budget and the LAO’s preliminary review of the 2016-17 Budget. The 2016-17 Budget projects, for fiscal year 2015-16, total general fund revenues and transfers of $117.0 billion and total expenditures of $115.6 billion. The State is projected to end fiscal year 2015-16 with total available reserves of $7.3 billion, including $3.9 billion in the traditional general fund reserve and $3.4 billion in the Budget Stabilization Account (the “BSA”), the State’s basic reserve account. For fiscal year 2016- 17, the 2016-17 Budget projects a growth in State general fund revenues driven primarily by total general fund revenues of $120.3 billion and authorizes expenditures of $122.5 billion. The State is projected to end the fiscal year 2016-17 with total available reserves of $8.5 billion, including $1.8 billion in the traditional general fund reserve and $6.7 billion in the BSA. As a result of higher general fund revenue estimates for fiscal years 2015-16 and 2016-17, and after accounting for expenditures that are controlled by State Constitutional funding requirements such as Proposition 2 and Proposition 98, the 2016-17 Budget allocates over $6 billion in discretionary funding for various purposes. These include: (i) additional deposits of $2 billion to the BSA and $600 million to the State’s discretionary budget reserve fund; (ii) approximately $2.9 billion in one-time funding for infrastructure, affordable housing, public safety and other purposes; and (iii) $700 million in on-going funding commitments for higher education (the California State University and the University of California systems), corrections and rehabilitation and State courts. 20 As required by Proposition 2, the 2016-17 Budget applies $1.3 billion towards the repayment of existing State liabilities, including loans from special funds, State and University of California pension and retiree health benefits and settle-up payments to K-14 school districts resulting from an underfunding of the Proposition 98 minimum funding guarantee in a prior fiscal year. With respect to education funding, the 2016-17 Budget sets the Proposition 98 minimum funding guarantee at $71.9 billion, an increase of $2.8 billion over the revised level from the prior fiscal year. For additional information regarding the Proposed Budget and the May Revise, see the DOF website at www.dof.ca.gov and the LAO’s website at www.lao.ca.gov. The information presented on such websites is not incorporated herein by reference. Potential Impact of State Financial Condition on the City The State experienced significant financial stress in during the last economic recession, with budget shortfalls in the several billions of dollars. There can be no assurance that, as a result of such State financial stress, the State will not significantly reduce revenues to local governments (including the City) or shift financial responsibility for programs to local governments as part of its efforts to address the State’s financial difficulties. Although the State is not a significant source of City revenues, no prediction can be made by the City as to what measures the State will adopt to respond to the current or potential future financial difficulties. There can be no assurance that State actions to respond to State financial difficulties will not adversely affect the financial condition of the City. Future State Budgets No prediction can be made by the City as to whether the State will continue to encounter budgetary problems in future fiscal years, and if it were to do so, it is not clear what measures would be taken by the State to balance its budget, as required by law. In addition, the City cannot predict the final outcome of future State budget negotiations, the impact that such budgets will have on City finances and operations or what actions will be taken in the future by the State Legislature and the Governor to deal with changing State revenues and expenditures. There can be no assurance that actions taken by the State to address its financial condition will not materially adversely affect the financial condition of the City. Current and future State budgets will be affected by national and State economic conditions and other factors, including the current economic downturn, over which the City has no control. Redevelopment Dissolution General. On December 29, 2011, the State Supreme Court upheld Assembly Bill 1x26 (“AB 1x26”), which dissolved redevelopment agencies in the State. The effect of AB 1x26 upon the City is the termination of the redevelopment functions of the Redevelopment Agency of the City of Lake Elsinore (the “Former Agency”) and the transfer of such functions to a successor agency (the Successor Agency of the Redevelopment Agency of the City of Lake Elsinore, referred to in the capacity of a successor agency, and being referred to in this context as the “Successor Agency”) tasked with winding down the Former Agency’s redevelopment activities. Under AB 1x26, the Successor Agency cannot enter into new redevelopment projects or obligations and its assets can be used only to pay enforceable obligations, which enforceable obligations are generally limited to obligations that were in existence in mid-2011, when AB 1x26 was signed by the Governor. In addition, the Successor Agency will receive tax increment revenues in amounts that are sufficient to pay 100% (but no greater amount) of such enforceable obligations until such obligations (including accrued interest, as applicable) are paid in full, at which time the Successor Agency will be dissolved. Certain tax revenues formerly allocable to the Former Agency will continue to be available to the Successor Agency to pay certain obligations, and a portion of such revenues may be redirected to other taxing agencies, such as the County, school districts and the City. The Successor Agency’s activities are subject to review by an oversight board established under AB 1x26. Under AB 1x26, liabilities of the Successor Agency are not liabilities of the City. 21 On June 27, 2012, the Governor signed Assembly Bill 1484 (“AB 1484”), which made certain amendments to AB 1x26. Under AB 1484, the County Auditor-Controller, the DOF and the State Controller may require the return of funds that were improperly spent or transferred to a public entity in conflict with the provisions of the Community Redevelopment Law, as amended by AB 1x26 and AB 1484, and if such funds are not returned within 60 days, they may be recovered through an offset of sales and use tax or property tax allocations to the local agency, which, in the case of the Successor Agency, is the City. On September 22, 2015, the following amendments to AB 1x26 were enacted as Senate Bill 107 (“SB 107”): (1) redevelopment successor agencies that enter into a written agreement with the DOF to remit unencumbered cash to the county auditor-controller will receive a finding of completion, which provides successor agencies with additional fiscal tools and reduced State oversight; (2) successor agencies that that have a “Last and Final” ROPS (as discussed below) may expend a portion of proceeds of bonds issued in 2011, which proceeds are currently frozen; (3) pension or State Water Project override revenues that are not pledged to or not needed for redevelopment bond debt service will be returned to the entity that levies the override; (4) agreements relating to State highway improvements and money loaned to successor agencies to pay costs associated with redevelopment dissolution litigation will be considered enforceable obligations; and (5) reentered agreements entered into after the passage of AB 1484 are unenforceable unless entered into for the purpose of providing administrative support. SB 107 also: (a) requires the preparation of a Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule with respect to enforceable obligations (a “ROPS”), which are required to be submitted to the oversight board and the DOF in accordance with AB 1x26, once a year beginning with the ROPS period that commenced on July 1, 2016 (rather than twice a year under current law); (b) establishes an optional “Last and Final” ROPS process beginning in September 2015; under this process, a successor agency that elected to submit a “Last and Final ROPS would no longer submit a periodic ROPS and the enforceable obligations set forth in the “Last and Final” ROPS would be binding on all parties; and (c) clarifies that former tax increment caps and plan limits do not apply for the purposes of paying approved enforceable obligations. Impact on the City. Significant provisions of AB 1x26, AB 1484, SB 107 and implementing actions of affected parties, including the Successor Agency, the oversight board, the County and the DOF, may be subject to legal challenge, statutory or administrative changes and other clarifications that could affect the impact of the dissolution of redevelopment on the City and its General Fund. The DOF has periodically proposed additional legislation that would modify statutes affecting redevelopment dissolution; it is not known whether additional legislation will be enacted. The full extent of the impact of the implementation of AB 1x26, AB 1484 and SB 107 or potential future legislation on the City’s General Fund is unknown at this time. While certain administrative costs previously charged to the Former Agency by the General Fund will no longer be supported by the Successor Agency, certain property tax revenues formerly allocated to the Former Agency will now be received by the City’s General Fund. The City does not believe that it has received material amounts from the Former Agency or the Successor Agency which may be asserted to be in violation of AB 1x26 or AB 1484. Successor Agency Obligations to the General Fund. Although AB 1x26 generally invalidates agreements between host cities and their former redevelopment agencies, AB 1484 added a provision for the enforcement of agreements entered into with respect to obligations which meet certain specified criteria. The only ongoing Successor Agency payment obligations to the City relate to administrative costs and the repayment of certain outstanding loans to the City in its capacity as housing successor agency, for deposit to the low and moderate income housing fund. There can be no assurance that the City and the Successor Agency will not enter into loan agreements in the future to enable the Successor Agency to meet its payment obligations in future years. 22 In addition, certain moneys, real property and other assets were previously transferred to the City by the Successor Agency as part of the DOF-mandated due diligence undertaking related to redevelopment dissolution. There can be no assurance that the DOF, the State Controller or other State or County bodies will not compel the City to disgorge moneys, real property or other assets received from the Successor Agency as part of the redevelopment dissolution process in the future. To the extent that the Successor Agency’s assets are liquidated for distribution of proceeds to the affected taxing entities, the City currently expects that the City’s General Fund will receive approximately ___% of such assets. CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY LIMITATIONS ON TAXES AND APPROPRIATIONS There are a number of provisions in the State Constitution that limit the ability of the City to raise and expend tax revenues. Article XIIIA of the California Constitution On June 6, 1978, California voters approved an amendment (commonly known as both Proposition 13 and the Jarvis-Gann Initiative) to the California Constitution. This amendment, which added Article XIIIA to the California Constitution, among other things affects the valuation of real property for the purpose of taxation in that it defines the full cash property value to mean “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 newly constructed, or when a change in ownership has occurred after the 1975 assessment.” The full cash value may be adjusted annually to reflect inflation at a rate not to exceed 2% per year, or a reduction in the consumer price index or comparable local data at a rate not to exceed 2% per year, or reduced in the event of declining property value caused by damage, destruction or other factors including a general economic downturn. The amendment further limits the amount of any ad valorem tax on real property to one percent of the full cash value except that additional taxes may be levied to pay debt service on indebtedness approved by the voters prior to December 1, 1978, and bonded indebtedness for the acquisition or improvement of real property approved on or after December 1, 1978 by two-thirds of the votes cast by the voters voting on the proposition (55% in the case of certain school facilities). Property taxes subject to Proposition 13 are a significant source of revenues to the City’s General Fund. See “CITY FINANCIAL INFORMATION.” Legislation enacted by the California Legislature to implement Article XIIIA provides that all taxable property is shown at full assessed value as described above. Tax rates for voter approved bonded indebtedness and pension liability are also applied to 100% of assessed value. Future assessed valuation growth allowed under Article XIIIA (new construction, change of ownership, 2% annual value growth) is allocated on the basis of “situs” among the jurisdictions that serve the tax rate area within which the growth occurs. Local agencies and school districts share the growth of “base” revenue from the tax rate area. Each year’s growth allocation becomes part of each agency’s allocation the following year. Article XIIIA effectively prohibits the levying of any other ad valorem property tax above the 1% limit except for taxes to support indebtedness approved by the voters as described above. Article XIIIA has subsequently been amended to permit reduction of the “full cash value” base in the event of declining property values caused by damage, destruction or other factors, and to provide that there would be no increase in the “full cash value” base in the event of reconstruction of property damaged or destroyed in a disaster and in certain other limited circumstances. Article XIIIB of the California Constitution At the statewide special election on November 6, 1979, the voters approved an initiative entitled “Limitation on Government Appropriations” which added Article XIIIB to the California Constitution. Under 23 Article XIIIB, state and local government entities have an annual “appropriations limit” which limits the ability to spend certain moneys which are called “appropriations subject to limitation” (consisting of tax revenues and certain state subventions together called “proceeds of taxes” and certain other funds) in an amount higher than the “appropriations limit.” Article XIIIB does not affect the appropriation of moneys which are excluded from the definition of “appropriations limit” including debt service on indebtedness existing or authorized as of October 1, 1979, or bonded indebtedness subsequently approved by the voters. In general terms, the “appropriations limit” is to be based on certain 1978-79 expenditures, and is to be adjusted annually to reflect changes in the consumer price index, population and services provided by these entities. Among other provisions of Article XIIIB, if those entities’ 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. The City’s appropriations have never exceeded the limitation on appropriations under Article XIIIB of the California Constitution. Proposition 62 A statutory initiative (“Proposition 62”) was adopted by the voters of the State at the November 4, 1986 General Election which: (a) requires that any tax for general governmental purposes imposed by local governmental entities be approved by resolution or ordinance adopted by two-thirds vote of the governmental agency’s legislative body and by a majority of the electorate of the governmental entity; (b) requires that any special tax (defined as taxes levied for other than general governmental purposes) imposed by a local governmental entity be approved by a two-thirds vote of the voters within the jurisdiction; (c) restricts the use of revenues from a special tax to the purposes or for the service for which the special tax is imposed;(d) prohibits the imposition of ad valorem taxes on real property by local governmental entities except as permitted by Article XIIIA; (e) prohibits the imposition of transaction taxes and sales taxes on the sale of real property by local governmental entities; and (f) requires that any tax imposed by a local governmental entity on or after August 1, 1985 be ratified by a majority vote of the electorate within two years of the adoption of the initiative or be terminated by November 15, 1988. The requirements imposed by Proposition 62 were upheld by the California State Supreme Court in Santa Clara County Local Transportation Authority v. Guardino, 11 Ca1.4th 220; 45 Cal.Rptr.2d 207 (1995). Proposition 62 applies to the imposition of any taxes or the effecting of any tax increases after its enactment in 1986, but the requirements of Proposition 62 are largely subsumed by the requirements of Proposition 218 for the imposition of any taxes or the effecting of any tax increases after November 5, 1996. See “—Proposition 218” below. Proposition 218 On November 5, 1996, California voters approved Proposition 218—Voter Approval for Local Government Taxes—Limitation on Fees, Assessments, and Charges—Initiative Constitutional Amendment. Proposition 218 added Articles XIIIC and XIIID to the California Constitution, imposing certain vote requirements and other limitations on the imposition of new or increased taxes, assessments and property-related fees and charges. Proposition 218 states that all taxes imposed by local governments are deemed to be either general taxes or special taxes. Special purpose districts, including school districts, have no power to levy general taxes. No local government may impose, extend or increase any general tax unless and until such tax is submitted to the electorate and approved by a majority vote. No local government may impose, extend or increase any special tax unless and until such tax is submitted to the electorate and approved by a two-thirds vote. Proposition 218 also provides that no tax, assessment, fee or charge may be assessed by any agency upon any parcel of property or upon any person as an incident of property ownership except: (i) the ad valorem property tax imposed pursuant to Article XIII and Article XIIIA of the California Constitution, (ii) any special tax receiving a two-thirds vote pursuant to the California Constitution, and (iii) assessments, fees and charges for property related services as provided in Proposition 218. Proposition 218 then goes on to add voter 24 requirements for assessments and fees and charges imposed as an incident of property ownership, other than fees and charges for sewer, water, and refuse collection services. In addition, all assessments and fees and charges imposed as an incident of property ownership, including sewer, water, and refuse collection services, are subjected to various additional procedures, such as hearings and stricter and more individualized benefit requirements and findings. The effect of such new provisions will presumably be to increase the difficulty a local agency will have in imposing, increasing or extending such assessments, fees and charges. Proposition 218 also extended the initiative power to reducing or repealing any local taxes, assessments, fees and charges. This extension of the initiative power is not limited to taxes imposed on or after November 6, 1996, the effective date of Proposition 218, and could result in retroactive repeal or reduction in any existing taxes, assessments, fees and charges, subject to overriding federal constitutional principles relating to the impairments of contracts. Legislation implementing Proposition 218 provides that the initiative power provided for in Proposition 218 “shall not be construed to mean that any owner or beneficial owner of a municipal security, purchased before or after (the effective date of Proposition 218) assumes the risk of, or in any way consents to, any action by initiative measure that constitutes an impairment of contractual rights” protected by the United States Constitution. However, no assurance can be given that the voters of the City will not, in the future, approve an initiative which reduces or repeals local taxes, assessments, fees or charges that currently are deposited into the City’s General Fund. Although a portion of the City’s General Fund revenues are derived from general taxes purported to be governed by Proposition 218, all of such taxes were imposed in accordance with the requirements of Proposition 218. No assurance can be given that the voters of the City will not, in the future, approve an initiative or initiatives which reduce or repeal local taxes, assessments, fees or charges which support the City’s General Fund. Unitary Property Some amount of property tax revenue of the City is derived from utility property which is considered part of a utility system with components located in many taxing jurisdictions (“unitary property”). Under the State Constitution, such property is assessed by the State Board of Equalization (“SBE”) as part of a “going concern” rather than as individual pieces of real or personal property. State-assessed unitary and certain other property is allocated to the counties by SBE, taxed at special county-wide rates, and the tax revenues distributed to taxing jurisdictions (including the City) according to statutory formula generally based on the distribution of taxes in the prior year. Proposition 22 On November 2, 2010, voters in the State approved Proposition 22, which eliminates the State’s ability to borrow or shift local revenues and certain State revenues that fund transportation programs. It restricts the State’s authority over a broad range of tax revenues, including property taxes allocated to cities (including the City), counties, special districts and redevelopment agencies, the Vehicle License Fee, State excise taxes on gasoline and diesel fuel, the State sales tax on diesel fuel, and the former State sales tax on gasoline. It also makes a number of significant other changes, including restricting the State’s ability to use motor vehicle fuel tax revenues to pay debt service on voter-approved transportation bonds. The application of Proposition 22 to AB1X 26 and AB1X 27 is currently under review by the California Supreme Court. See “RISK FACTORS— State Budget; Redevelopment Legislation and Litigation.” Proposition 1A As part of Governor Schwarzenegger’s agreement with local jurisdictions, Senate Constitutional Amendment No. 4 was enacted by the Legislature and subsequently approved by the voters as Proposition 1A (“Proposition 1A”) at the November 2004 election. Proposition 1A amended the State Constitution to, among other things, reduce the Legislature’s authority over local government revenue sources by placing restrictions 25 on the State’s access to local governments’ property, sales, and vehicle license fee revenues as of November 3, 2004. Beginning with Fiscal Year 2008–09, the State may borrow up to 8 percent of local property tax revenues, but only if the Governor proclaims such action is necessary due to a severe State fiscal hardship and two–thirds of both houses of the Legislature approves the borrowing. The amount borrowed is required to be paid back within three years. The State also will not be able to borrow from local property tax revenues for more than 2 fiscal years within a period of 10 fiscal years. In addition, the State cannot reduce the local sales tax rate or restrict the authority of local governments to impose or change the distribution of the statewide local sales tax. The 2009-10 State budget included a Proposition 1A diversion of $1.935 billion in local property tax revenues from cities, counties, and special districts to the State to offset State general fund spending. Such diverted revenues must be repaid, with interest, no later than June 30, 2013. The amount of the Proposition 1A diversion from the City was $ 598,935. The City participated in a State-sponsored program financing the Proposition 1A diversion and, accordingly, received its full share of property tax revenues. Proposition 26 On November 2, 2010, voters in the State approved Proposition 26. Proposition 26 amends Article XIIIC of the State Constitution to expand the definition of “tax” to include “any levy, charge, or exaction of any kind imposed by a local government” except the following: (1) a charge imposed for a specific benefit conferred or privilege granted directly to the payor that is not provided to those not charged, and which does not exceed the reasonable costs to the local government of conferring the benefit or granting the privilege; (2) a charge imposed for a specific government service or product provided directly to the payor that is not provided to those not charged, and which does not exceed the reasonable costs to the local government of providing the service or product; (3) a charge imposed for the reasonable regulatory costs to a local government for issuing licenses and permits, performing investigations, inspections, and audits, enforcing agricultural marketing orders, and the administrative enforcement and adjudication thereof; (4) a charge imposed for entrance to or use of local government property, or the purchase, rental, or lease of local government property; (5) A fine, penalty, or other monetary charge imposed by the judicial branch of government or a local government, as a result of a violation of law; (6) a charge imposed as a condition of property development; and (7) assessments and property-related fees imposed in accordance with the provisions of Article XIIID. Proposition 26 provides that the local government bears the burden of proving by a preponderance of the evidence that a levy, charge, or other exaction is not a tax, that the amount is no more than necessary to cover the reasonable costs of the governmental activity, and that the manner in which those costs are allocated to a payor bear a fair or reasonable relationship to the payor’s burdens on, or benefits received from, the governmental activity. The City does not believe that Proposition 26 will adversely affect its General Fund Revenues. Future Initiatives Article XIIIA, Article XIIIB and Propositions 62, 218, 1A, 22 and 26 were each adopted as measures that qualified for the ballot pursuant to the State’s initiative process. From time to time other initiative measures could be adopted, further affecting the City’s current revenues or its ability to raise and expend revenues. TAX MATTERS In the opinion of Stradling Yocca Carlson & Rauth, a Professional Corporation, Newport Beach, California, Bond Counsel, under existing statutes, regulations, rulings and judicial decisions, interest on the Series 2016 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 on Series 2016 Bonds is exempt from State of California personal income tax. Bond Counsel notes that, with respect to corporations, interest on the Series 2016 Bonds may be included as an adjustment in the calculation of alternative minimum taxable income which may affect the alternative minimum tax liability of such corporations. 26 The difference between the issue price of a Series 2016 Bond (the first price at which a substantial amount of the Bonds of the same series and maturity is to be sold to the public) and the stated redemption price at maturity with respect to such Series 2016 Bond constitutes original issue discount. Original issue discount accrues under a constant yield method, and original issue discount will accrue to the owner of the Series 2016 Bond before receipt of cash attributable to such excludable income (with respect to the Series 2016 Bonds). The amount of original issue discount deemed received by the owner of a Series 2016 Bondwill increase the owner’s basis in the Series 2016 Bond. In the opinion of Bond Counsel original issue discount that accrues to the owner of a Series 2016 Bond is excluded from the gross income of such 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. Bond Counsel’s opinion as to the exclusion from gross income for federal income tax purposes of the portion of each Base Rental Payment constituting interest (and original issue discount) on the Series 2016 Bonds is based upon certain representations of fact and certifications made by the City and others and is subject to the condition that the City and the Authority comply with all requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), that must be satisfied subsequent to issuance of the Series 2016 Bonds to assure that the portion of each Base Rental Payment constituting interest (and original issue discount) 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 Series 2016 Bonds to be included in gross income for federal income tax purposes retroactive to the date of issuance of the Series 2016 Bonds. The City and the Authority have covenanted to comply with all such requirements applicable to each, respectively. The amount by which a Series 2016 Bond Owner’s original basis for determining loss on sale or exchange in the applicable Series 2016 Bond (generally, the purchase price) exceeds the amount payable on maturity (or on an earlier call date) constitutes amortizable Series 2016 Bondpremium, which must be amortized under Section 171 of the Code; such amortizable Series 2016 Bond premium reduces the Series 2016 Bond Owner’s basis in the applicable Series 2016 Bond (and the amount of tax-exempt interest received with respect to the Series 2016 Bonds), and is not deductible for federal income tax purposes. The basis reduction as a result of the amortization of Series 2016 Bond premium may result in a Series 2016 Bond Owner realizing a taxable gain when a Series 2016 Bond is sold by the Owner for an amount equal to or less (under certain circumstances) than the original cost of the Series 2016 Bond to the Owner. Purchasers of the Series 2016 Bonds should consult their own tax advisors as to the treatment, computation and collateral consequences of amortizable Series 2016 Bond premium. Bond Counsel’s opinions 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, the Lease Agreement, and the Tax Certificate 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) due with respect to any Series 2016 Bond if any such action is taken or omitted based upon the advice of counsel other than Stradling Yocca Carlson & Rauth, a Professional Corporation. 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 Series 2016 Bonds will be selected for audit by the IRS. It is also possible that the market value of the Series 2016 Bonds might be affected as a result of such an audit of the Series 2016 Bonds (or by an audit of similar securities). 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 Series 2016 Bonds to the extent that it adversely affects the exclusion from gross income of interest on the Series 2016 Bonds or their market value. 27 It is possible that, subsequent to the issuance of the Series 2016 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 Series 2016 Bonds or the market value of the Series 2016 Bonds. Recently, proposed legislative changes have been introduced in Congress, which, if enacted, could result in additional federal income or state tax being imposed on owners of tax-exempt state or local obligations, such as the Series 2016 Bonds. The introduction or enactment of any of such changes could adversely affect the market value or liquidity of the Series 2016 Bonds. No assurance can be given that, subsequent to the issuance of the Series 2016 Bonds, such changes (or other changes) will not be introduced or enacted or interpretations will not occur. Before purchasing any of the Series 2016 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 Series 2016 Bonds. Although Bond Counsel has rendered an opinion that the interest (and original issue discount) on the Series 2016 Bonds is excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes provided that the City and the Authoritycontinue to comply with certain requirements of the Code, the ownership of the Series 2016 Bonds and the accrual or receipt of interest (and original issue discount) with respect to the Series 2016 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 Series 2016 Bonds, all potential purchasers should consult their tax advisors with respect to collateral tax consequences with respect to the Series 2016 Bonds. The form of Bond Counsel’s proposed opinion with respect to the Series 2016 Bonds is attached hereto in Appendix D. CERTAIN LEGAL MATTERS The validity of the Series 2016 Bondsand certain other legal matters are subject to the approving opinion of Stradling Yocca Carlson & Rauth, a Professional Corporation, Bond Counsel. Stradling Yocca Carlson & Rauth, a Professional Corporation, is also acting as Disclosure Counsel for the City. A complete copy of the proposed form of Bond Counsel opinion is contained in Appendix D hereto. Bond Counsel undertakes no responsibility for the accuracy, completeness or fairness of this Official Statement. Bond Counsel and Disclosure Counsel will receive compensation from the City contingent upon the sale and delivery of the Series 2016 Bonds. From time to time, Bond Counsel and Disclosure Counsel represent the Underwriter on matters unrelated to the Series 2016 Bonds. Certain legal matters will be passed upon for the City and the Authority by Leibold, McClendon & Mann, a Professional Corporation, Irvine, California, for the Underwriter by Nossaman, LLP, Irvine, California, and for the Trustee by its counsel. Counsel to the Underwriter will receive compensation contingent upon that issuance of the Series 2016 Bonds. ABSENCE OF LITIGATION [To the best knowledge of the City and the Authority, there is no action, suit or proceeding pending or threatened either restraining or enjoining the execution or delivery of the Series 2016 Bonds, the Lease Agreement or the Indenture, or in any way contesting or affecting the validity of the foregoing or any proceedings of the Authority or the City taken with respect to any of the foregoing. There are a number of lawsuits and claims from time to time pending against the City. In the opinion of the City, and taking into account likely insurance coverage and litigation reserves, there are no lawsuits or claims pending against the City which will materially affect the City’s finances so as to impair its ability to pay Base Rental Payments when due.] 28 UNDERWRITING The Series 2016 Bonds are being purchased by Stifel, Nicolaus & Company, Incorporated dba Stone & Youngberg, a Division of Stifel Nicolaus (the “Underwriter”). The Underwriter will purchase the Series 2016 Bonds from the Authority at an aggregate purchase price of $_________ (representing the principal amount of the Series 2016 Bonds, plus $_________ of net original issue premium and less $_________ of Underwriter’s discount). The Series 2016 Bonds are offered for sale at the initial prices stated on the inside cover page of this Official Statement, which may be changed from time to time by the Underwriter. The Series 2016 Bonds may be offered and sold to certain dealers at prices lower than the public offering prices. RATING S&P Global Ratings (“S&P”) has assigned the Series 2016 Bonds the rating of “___” (_____ outlook). Certain information was supplied by the City to S&P to be considered in evaluating the Series 2016 Bonds (which may include information and material which is not included in this Official Statement). In addition, rating agencies may base their ratings on investigations, studies and assumptions by the rating agencies. The rating issued reflects only the views of S&P, and any explanation of the significance of such rating should be obtained from S&P. There is no assurance that any rating will be retained for any given period of time or that the same will not be revised downward or withdrawn entirely by S&P if, in its judgment, circumstances so warrant. Other than as provided in the Continuing Disclosure Certificate, the City undertakes no responsibility either to bring to the attention of the owners of any Series 2016 Bonds any downward revision or withdrawal of any rating obtained or to oppose any such revision or withdrawal. Any such downward revision or withdrawal of the rating obtained may have an adverse effect on the market price of and the ability to trade the Series 2016 Bonds. FINANCIAL ADVISOR The City has retained Urban Futures, Inc., Orange, California (the “Financial Advisor”) as financial advisor in connection with the sale of the Series 2016 Bonds. The Financial Advisor is not obligated to undertake, and has not undertaken to make, an independent verification or to assume any responsibility for the accuracy, completeness or fairness of the information contained herein. The Financial Advisor is an independent advisory firm and is not engaged in the business of underwriting, trading or distributing municipal or other public securities. CONTINUING DISCLOSURE The City has covenanted for the benefit of the Owners of the Series 2016 Bonds to provide annually certain financial information and operating data relating to the Series 2016 Bonds and the City (the “Annual Report”), and to provide notices of the occurrence of certain enumerated events. For a complete listing of items of information which will be provided in each Annual Report and further description of the City’s undertaking with respect to the Annual Report and certain enumerated events, see Appendix F —“FORM OF CONTINUING DISCLOSURE CERTIFICATE.” The Annual Report is to be provided by the City not later than nine (9) months after the end of the City’s fiscal year (which currently would be April 1), commencing with the report for the 2015-16 Fiscal Year. The Annual Report will be filed by the City with the Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board. These covenants have been made in order to assist the Underwriter in complying with Securities and Exchange Commission Rule 15c2-12(b)(5). Although the Former Agency, the Successor Agency and certain community facilities districts formed by the City are not obligated persons pursuant to Rule 15c2-12 with respect to the Series 2016 Bonds, during the last five years the City, the Successor Agency, the Former Agency and certain community facilities districts 29 formed by the City failed to comply in certain respects with continuing disclosure obligations related to outstanding bonded indebtedness. The failures to comply include late filings with respect to several annual reports and incomplete filings with respect to other annual reports. The incomplete filings omitted one or more of the following items: (1)Comprehensive audited financial statements of the City or the Agency, as applicable, including the audited financial statements for Fiscal Year 2011-12 which were filed more than one year late; (2)Updated tabular and other operating information relating to the City, the Agency and community facilities districts; and (3)Material event notices of changes in the ratings of outstanding bonded indebtedness of the Authority and the Agency resulting from changes in the ratings to the bonds or to the bond insurers insuring such bonds. The City, the Successor Agency and various community facilities districts formed by the City have made additional filings to provide certain of the previously omitted information; provided that with respect to ratings changes, notice has been provided only of the existing rating or ratings applicable to each outstanding issuance of bonds. Other than as set forth above, the City believes in the last five years they have materially complied with their continuing disclosure undertakings. In order to promote compliance with continuing disclosure undertakings in the future, the City has retained Albert A. Webb Associates to serve as the dissemination agent with respect to issuances of land-secured bonded indebtedness and Urban Futures Incorporated to serve as the dissemination agent with respect to other types of bonded indebtedness.

Risk Management Self-insurance Programs of the California Joint Powers Insurance Authority. The City is a member of the California Joint Powers Insurance Authority (the “Insurance Authority”), which is composed of A-2 approximately 118 public entities within the State of California. The Insurance Authority arranges and administers programs for the pooling of self-insured losses, purchases excess insurance or reinsurance, and arranges for group-purchased insurance coverage. The Insurance Authority evaluates each member relative to the payroll of other members. A variable credibility factor is determined for each member, which establishes the weight applied to payroll and the weight applied to losses with the formula. The City self-insures for general liability insurance and workers’ compensation insurance through the Insurance Authority. In the general liability program, claims are pooled separately between police and non-police exposures. The first layer of losses includes incurred costs up to $30,000 per occurrence and is evaluated as a percentage of the pool’s total incurred costs within the first layer. The second layer of losses includes incurred costs from $30,000 to $750,000 per occurrence and is evaluated as a percentage of the pool’s total incurred costs within the second layer. Incurred costs in excess of $750,000 to $50 million are distributed based on the outcome of cost allocation within the first and second layers. The coverage limit for each member, including all layers of coverage, is $50 million per occurrence. Costs of covered claims for subsidence losses have a sub-limit of $30 million per occurrence. Employer’s liability losses are pooled among members to $2 million. Coverage from $2 million to $5 million is purchased as part of a reinsurance policy, and employer’s liability losses from $5 million to $10 million are pooled among members. In the workers’ compensation program, claims are pooled separately between public safety (police and fire) and non-public safety exposures. The first layer of losses includes incurred costs up to $50,000 per occurrence and is evaluated as a percentage of the pool’s total incurred costs within the first layer. The second layer of losses includes incurred costs from $50,000 to $100,000 per occurrence and is evaluated as a percentage of the pool’s total incurred costs within the second layer. Incurred costs from $100,000 to statutory limits are distributed based on the outcome of cost allocation within the first and second loss layers. For Fiscal Year 2015- 16, the Insurance Authority’s pooled retention was$2 million per occurrence, with reinsurance to statutory limits under California Workers’ Compensation Law. Purchased Insurance. The City participates in the all-risk property protection program of the Insurance Authority, which is underwritten by several insurance companies. As of June 30, 2016, City’s all-risk property coverage was in the amount of $44,629,595. The all-risk property protection program is subject to a $5,000 per occurrence deductible, except for non-emergency vehicle insurance, which is subject to a $1,000 per occurrence deductible. Premiums for the all-risk property protection program are paid annually and are not subject to retroactive adjustments. The City purchases crime insurance coverage through the Insurance Authority in the amount of $1,000,000, which is subject to a $2,500 deductible. Premiums for crime insurance coverage are paid annually and are not subject to retroactive adjustments. During the past three fiscal years the City did not experience any claims, settlements or judgments that exceeded pooled or insured coverages described above. There are no significant reductions in pooled or insured liability coverage in Fiscal Year 2016-17 from the amounts described above. For additional information relating to the City’s insurance coverages and the Insurance Authority, see Note 17 to the City’s audited financial statements for Fiscal Year 2014-15 attached to the Official Statement as Appendix C. A-3 CITY FINANCIAL INFORMATION General In Fiscal Year 2016, sales taxes, motor vehicle license fees, property taxes and in-lieu taxes make up approximately 54 percent of the City’s general fund revenues. Accounting and Financial Reporting The City maintains its accounting records in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) and the standards established by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB). On a semi- annual basis, a report is prepared for the City Council and City staff which reviews fiscal performance to date against the budget. Combined financial statements are produced following the close of each Fiscal Year. The City Council employs an independent certified public accountant, who, at such time or times as specified by the City Council, at least annually, and at such other times as they determine, examines the financial statements of the City in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, including tests of the accounting records and other auditing procedures as such accountant considers necessary. As soon as practicable, after the end of the Fiscal Year, a final audit and report is submitted by the independent accountant to the City Council. The accounts of the City are organized on the basis of funds and account groups, each of which is considered a separate accounting entity. The operations of each fund are accounted for with a separate set of self-balancing accounts that comprise its assets, liabilities, fund equity, revenues and expenditures, or expenses, as appropriate. Government resources are allocated to and accounted for in individual funds based upon the purposes for which they are to be spent and the means by which spending activities are controlled. The various governmental funds are grouped, in the City’s annual financial statements, into generic fund types, which include the General Fund, Special Revenue Funds, Debt Service Funds and Capital Project Funds. The General Fund is the general operating fund of the City. It is used to account for all financial resources except those required to be accounted for in another fund. It is expected that the Lease Payments will be paid for from amounts in the General Fund. Tables 1 through 4 below set forth certain historical and current fiscal year budget information for the General Fund. Information on the remaining governmental funds of the City as of June 30, 2015 is set forth in Appendix B. Budget Procedure, Current Budget and Historical Budget Information The City currently uses a one-year budget cycle. The fiscal year of the City begins on the first day of July of each year and ends on the thirtiethday of June the following year. In May of every year, the City Manager submits to the City Council the proposed budget during a special budget study session. At the conclusion of the special budget study session, the City Council reviews and considers the proposed budget and makes any revisions thereof that it deems advisable and on or before June 30 it adopts the budget with revisions, if any, by the affirmative vote of at least a majority of the total members of the City Council during a public meeting. At any public meeting after the adoption of the budget, the City Council may amend or supplement the budget by motion adopted by the affirmative vote of at least a majority of the total members of the City Council. While the City Manager can approve amendments that do not change the bottom-line of the adopted budget, the City Council must approve any supplements to the budget. The budget for Fiscal Year 2016-17 was approved on May 31, 2016. From the effective date of the budget, the amounts stated as proposed expenditures become appropriated to the several departments, offices and agencies for the objects and purposes named, provided that the City Manager may transfer appropriations of a fund from one object or purpose to another within the same fund as appropriate. All appropriations lapse at the end of the Fiscal Year to the extent that they have not been expended, A-4 lawfully encumbered or affirmatively reappropriated by the City Council during the adoption of the next year’s budget.

A-7 Property Taxes Property tax receipts of $6,249,786 provided the second largest tax revenue source of the City, contributing approximately 18.7% of total General Fund revenues during Fiscal Year 2015. Based on unaudited actual results, the City expects property tax receipts of $6,559,959 in Fiscal Year 2016, which is approximately 16.6% of total General Fund revenues during Fiscal Year 2016. In California, property which is subject to ad valorem taxes is classified as “secured” or “unsecured.” The secured classification includes property on which any property tax levied by a county becomes a lien on that property. A tax levied on unsecured property does not become a lien against the taxed unsecured property, but may become a lien on certain other property owned by the taxpayer. Every tax which becomes a lien on secured property has priority over all other liens, arising pursuant to State Law, on the secured property, regardless of the time of the creation of other liens. The valuation of property is determined as of January 1 each year, and installments of taxes levied upon secured property become delinquent on the following December 10th and April 10th of the subsequent calendar year. Taxes on unsecured property are due July 1, and become delinquent August 31. Secured and unsecured properties are entered separately on the assessment roll maintained by the county assessor. The method of collecting delinquent taxes is substantially different for the two classifications of property. The exclusive means of forcing the payment of delinquent taxes with respect to property on the secured roll is the sale of the property securing the taxes of the State for the amount of taxes that are delinquent. The taxing authority has four methods of collecting unsecured personal property taxes: (1) a civil action against the taxpayer; (2) filing a certificate in the office of the county clerk specifying certain facts in order to obtain a judgment lien on certain property of the taxpayer; (3) filing a certificate of delinquency for record in the County Recorder’s Office in order to obtain a lien on certain property of the taxpayer, and (4) seizure and sale of personal property, improvement or possessory interest belonging or taxable to the assessee. A ten percent penalty is added to delinquent taxes which have been levied with respect to property on the secured roll. In addition, beginning on the July 1 following a delinquency, interest begins accruing at the rate of 1 1/2% per month on the amount delinquent. Such property may thereafter be redeemed by the payment of the delinquent taxes and the ten percent penalty, plus interest at the rate of 1 1/2% per month to the time of redemption. If taxes are unpaid for a period of five years or more, the property is deeded to the State and then is subject to sale by the county tax collector. A ten percent penalty also applies to the delinquent taxes or property on the unsecured roll, and further, an additional penalty of 1 1/2% per month accrues with respect to such taxes beginning on the varying dates related to the tax billing date. Legislation enacted in 1984 (Section 25 et seq. of the Revenue and Taxation Code of the State of California), provides for the supplemental assignment and taxation of property as of the occurrence of a change in ownership or completion of new construction. Previously, statutes enabled the assessment of such changes only as of the next tax lien date following the change and thus delayed the realization of increased property taxes from the new assessment for up to 14 months. Collection of taxes based on supplemental assessments occurs throughout the year. Taxes due are prorated according to the amount of time remaining in the tax year, with the exception of tax bills dated January 1 through May 31, which are calculated on the basis of the remainder of the current fiscal year and the full 12 months of the next fiscal year. For a number of years, the State Legislature has shifted property taxes from cities, counties and special districts to the Educational Revenue Augmentation Fund. The term “ERAF” is often used as a shorthand reference for this shift of property taxes. In 1992-93 and 1993-94, in response to serious budgetary shortfalls, the State Legislature and administration permanently redirected over $3 billion of property taxes from cities, counties, and special districts to schools and community college districts. The 2004-05 California State Budget included an additional $1.3 billion shift of property taxes from certain local agencies, including the City, to occur in Fiscal Years 2004-05 and 2005-06. On November 2, 2004, California voters approved Proposition 1A, which amended the State Constitution to significantly reduce the State’s authority over major local government revenue sources. Under A-8 Proposition 1A, the State may not (i) reduce local sales tax rates or alter the method of allocating the revenue generated by such taxes, (ii) shift property taxes from local governments to schools or community colleges, (iii) change how property tax revenues are shared among local governments without two-third approval of both houses of the State Legislature, or (iv) decrease Vehicle License Fees revenues without providing local governments with equal replacement funding. Beginning in Fiscal Year 2008-09, the State may shift to schools and community colleges a limited amount of local government property tax revenue if certain conditions are met, including (a) a proclamation by the Governor that the shift is needed due to a severe financial hardship of the State, and (b) approval of the shift by the State Legislature with a two-thirds vote of both houses. Under such a shift, the State must repay local governments for their property tax losses, with interest, within three years. Proposition 1A does allow the State to approve voluntary exchanges of local sales tax and property tax revenues among local governments within a county. The City also received a portion of Department of Motor Vehicles license fees (“VLF”) collected statewide. Several years ago, the State-wide VLF was reduced by approximately two-thirds. However, the State continued to remit to cities and counties the same amount that those local agencies would have received if the VLF had not been reduced, known as the “VLF backfill.” The State VLF backfill was phased out and as of 2011- 12 all of the VLF is now received through an in lieu payment from State property tax revenues.

Table 5 below sets forth property tax collections and delinquencies in the City as of June 30 for Fiscal Years 2012 through 2016. The County operates under a statutory program entitled Alternate Method of Distribution of Tax Levies and Collections and of Tax Sale Proceeds (the “Teeter Plan”). Under the Teeter Plan local taxing entities receive 100% of their tax levies net of delinquencies, but do not receive interest or penalties on delinquent taxes collected by the County. The City is included in the Teeter Plan; accordingly, the City’s A-9 receipt of its property tax revenues is not impacted by delinquencies in payment. However, the County may choose to discontinue to the Teeter Plan at any time.

Source: California Municipal Statistics, Inc. Sales Taxes Sales tax receipts of $8,572,066 provide the largest tax revenue source for the City, contributing approximately 25.6% of total General Fund revenues during Fiscal Year 2015. A sales tax is imposed on retail A-10 sales or consumption of personal property. Based on unaudited actual results, the City expects sales tax receipts of _________in Fiscal Year 2016, which is approximately _____% of total General Fund revenues during Fiscal Year 2016. The basic sales tax rate is established by the State Legislature, and local overrides may be approved by voters. The current sales tax rate in the City is 8%. On March 2, 2004, State voters approved a bond initiative formally known as the “California Economic Recovery Act.” This act authorized the issuance of $15 billion of Economic Recovery Bonds to finance ongoing State budget deficits, which are payable from a fund established by the redirection of tax revenues known as the “Triple Flip.” The State issued $11.3 billion of Economic Recovery Bonds prior to June 30, 2004. Under the “Triple Flip,” one-quarter of local governments’1% share of the sales tax imposed on taxable transactions within their jurisdiction was redirected to the State. In an effort to eliminate the adverse impact of the sales tax revenue redirection on local government, State legislation provided for certain property taxes to be redirected to local government. Because these property tax moneyswere previously earmarked for schools, the legislation provided for schools to receive other State general fund revenues. The swap of sales taxes for property taxes terminated in Fiscal Year 2015-16 upon the repayment of the Economic Recovery Bonds and there will be no “Triple Flip” beginning in Fiscal Year 2016-17. See “RISK FACTORS—State Budget Information” herein. Services Fees of $3,189,138 collected for services provided by the City, including, but not limited to, fees for plan checks, issuing of building permits, public works projects and for parks and recreations programs, provided approximately 9.5% of General Fund revenues during Fiscal Year 2015. Based on unaudited actual results, such fees are estimated to be approximately $2,275,027 for Fiscal Year 2016, representing approximately 17.7% of estimated General Fund revenues.

CalPERS acts as a common investment and administrative agent for participating public entities within the State, including the City. Members with five years of total service are eligible to retire at age 50 with statutorily reduced benefits. All members are eligible for non-duty disability benefits after 10 years of service. The death benefit is one of the following: the Basic Death Benefit, the 1957 Survivor Benefit, or the Optional Settlement 2W Death Benefit. The cost of living adjustments for each plan are applied as specified by the Public Employees’ Retirement Law. CalPERS plan benefit provisions and all other requirements are established by State statute and City resolution. Participants in the City’s CalPERS plan contribute the full amount of the required employee contribution, which is up to 8% of their annual covered salary, depending on benefit level. The City’s CalPERS Plan provisions and benefits in effect at June 30, 2015 are summarized as follows: A-12 CITY OF LAKE ELSINORE SUMMARY OF CALPERS PLAN PROVISIONS AS OF JUNE 30, 2015 Miscellaneous Plan Miscellaneous Second Tier Safety Plan(2) Hire Date Prior to 1/1/2013 On or after 1/1/2013(1) Prior to 1/1/2013 On or after 1/1/2013(1) Prior to 1/1/2013 On or after 1/1/2013(1) Benefit Formula 2.0% at 55 2.0% at 62 2.0% at 60 2.0% at 62 0.5% at 55 N/A Benefit Vesting Schedule 5 years 5 years 5 years 5 years 5 years N/A Lifetime Benefit Payments Monthly Monthly Monthly Monthly Monthly N/A Retirement Age 50-55+52-67+55-60 52-67 50 N/A Monthly Benefits, as a % of Eligible Compensation 1.46% to 2.418% 1.0% to 2.5% 1.092% to 2.418% 1.0% to 2.5% 0.5%N/A Required Employee Contribution Rate 8%6.25%1.5%6.25% N/A N/A Required City Contribution Rate 24.34%6.237%8.005%%6.237% N/A N/A (1) For employees hired on or after January 1, 2013, they are included in their respective PEPRA (California Public Employees’ Pension Reform Act) Plans with the above provisions and benefits.

Employer contribution rates for all public employers are determined on an annual basis by the CalPERS actuary and are effective on the July 1 following notice of a change in the rate. The total plan contributions are determined through the CalPERS annual actuarial valuation process. The actuarially determined rate is the estimated amount, expressed as a percentage of payroll, that is necessary to finance the costs of benefits that are earned by employees during the year, with an additional amount to finance any unfunded accrued liability. The employer is required to contribute the difference between the actuarially determined rate and the contribution rate of employees. The City’s contribution rates for Fiscal Year 2015 and 2016 were 18.61% and 18.808%, respectively. The City’s contribution rate for Fiscal Year 2017 has been established at 19.3%. The City’s projected contribution rate for Fiscal Year 2018 is 19.9%. For the year ended June 30, 2015, the contributions recognized as part of pension expense for the City’s Plans were as follows: Employer Contributions Employee Contributions (Paid by Employer) Miscellaneous $734,838 $62,686 Miscellaneous Second Tier 123,737 -- PEPREA Miscellaneous 32,424 -- As of June 30, 2015, the City reported net pension liabilities for its proportionate shares of the net pension liability of each plan as follows: Proportionate Share of Net Pension Liability Miscellaneous $ 7,259,912 Miscellaneous Second Tier 10,337 PEPREA Miscellaneous 441 Safety 21,952 Total:$ 7,292,642 A-13 Pension Liabilities, Pension Expenses and Deferred Outflow/Inflows of Resources. The City’s net pension liability for each Plan is measured as the proportionate share of the net pension liability. The net pension liability of each of the Plans is measured as of June 30, 2014, and the total pension liability for each Plan used to calculate the net pension liability was determined by an actuarial valuation as of June 30, 2013 rolled forward to June 30, 2014 using standard update procedures. The City’s proportion of the net pension liability was actuarially determined based on a projection of the City’s long-term share of contributions to the pension plans relative to the projected contributions of all participating employers. The City’s proportionate share of the net pension liability for each Plan measured as of June 30, 2013 and June 30, 2014 was as follows: Proportion Change Increase (Decrease)June 30, 2014 June 30, 2013 Miscellaneous 0.11667%0.11247%0.00420% Miscellaneous Second Tier 0.00017%0.00018%(0.00001)% PEPREA Miscellaneous 0.00001%0.00001%0.00000% Safety 0.00035%0.00035%0.00000% For the year ended June 30, 2015, the City recognized pension expense of $686,246.

Source: Audited Financial Statement of the City for Fiscal Year 2015. In June 2012, the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (“GASB”) adopted new standards (GASB Statement No. 68, or “GASB 68”) with respect to accounting and financial reporting by state and local government employers for defined benefit pension plans. The new standards revise the accounting treatment of defined benefit pension plans, changing the way expenses and liabilities are calculated and how state and local government employers report those expenses and liabilities in their financial statements. Major changes include: (i) the inclusion of unfunded pension liabilities on the government’s balance sheet (previously, such unfunded liabilities were typically included as notes to the government’s financial statements); (ii) pension expense incorporates more rapid recognition of actuarial experience and investment returns and is no longer based on the employer’s actual contribution amounts; (iii) lower actuarial discount rates that are required to be used for underfunded plans in certain cases for purposes of the financial statements; (iv) closed amortization periods for unfunded liabilities that are required to be used for certain purposes of the financial statements; and (v) the difference between expected and actual investment returns will be recognized over a closed five-year smoothing period. The reporting requirements took effect in the fiscal year ended June 30 (“Fiscal Year”), 2015. Based on the adoption of the new accounting standards, beginning with the Fiscal Year 2015 actuarial valuation, the annual required contribution (the “ARC”) and the annual pension expense will be different. GASB 68 is a change in accounting reporting and disclosure requirements, but it does not change the City’s pension plan funding obligations. For additional information relating to the City’s plan, see Note 14 to the City’s audited financial statements for Fiscal Year 2015 attached to the Official Statement as Appendix B. The above information is primarily derived from information produced by CalPERS, its independent accountants and its actuaries. The City has not independently verified the information provided and makes no representations nor expresses any opinion as to the accuracy of the information provided by CalPERS. The comprehensive annual financial reports of CalPERS are available on its Internet website at www.calpers.ca.gov. The CalPERS website also contains CalPERS’ most recent actuarial valuation reports and other information concerning benefits and other matters. The textual reference to such Internet website is provided for convenience only. None of the information on such Internet website is incorporated by reference herein. The City cannot guarantee the accuracy of such information. Actuarial assessments are “forward-looking” statements that reflect the judgment of the fiduciaries of the pension plans, and are based upon a variety of assumptions, one or more of which may not materialize or may be changed in the future. A-15 Other Pension Benefits. The City offers its employees a deferred compensation plan created pursuant to Section 457 of the Internal Revenue Code whereby they can voluntarily contribute a portion of their earnings into a tax-deferred fund held in trust for the exclusive benefit of participants and their beneficiaries. Once the assets and income are placed in trust the City no longer owns the amounts deferred by employees and related income. For additional information relating to the City’s deferred compensation plan, see Note 16 to the City’s audited financial statements for Fiscal Year 2015 attached to the Official Statement as Appendix C. Other Post-Employment Benefits General. In accordance with City Resolution 89-42 dated September 1989, the City provides health insurance premiums costs to qualifying employees. Employees who began employment with the City prior to January 1, 2013 and who retire from the City on or after attaining age 55, with at least 5 years of service with the City, qualify to receive the post-employment benefit. The City pays 100% of the retirees’ and authorized dependents monthly medical premiums. Funding Policy. The contribution requirements of the plan members and the City are established and may be amended by the City, the City Council, and/or the employee associations. Currently, contributions are not required from plan members.Contributions are funded on a pay-as-you-go basis. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015, the City elected to fund $555,602 towards the unfunded accrued liability related to this benefit. The City’s annual OPEB cost (expense) is calculated based on the annual required contribution of the employer (ARC), an amount actuarially determined in accordance with parameters of GASB Statement 45. The ARC represents a level of funding that, if paid on an ongoing basis, is projected to cover normal cost each year and to amortize any unfunded liabilities of the plan over a period not to exceed thirty years. The ARC for fiscal year 2014-15 was $1,502,498. The following table shows the components of the City’s annual OPEB cost for the year, the amount actually contributed to the plan, and changes in the City’s net OPEB obligation. Annual Required Contribution (ARC)$ 1,502,498 Interest on Net OPEB Obligation 316,371 Annual OPEB Cost 1,818,869 Contributions Made (555,602) Increase (Decrease) in Net OPEB Obligation 1,263,267 Net OPEB Obligation – Beginning of Year 7,444,027 Net OPEB Obligation – End of Year $ 8,707,294 Funded Status and Funding Progress. As of July 1, 2014, the second actuarial valuation date, the plan was zero percent funded. The actuarial accrued liability for benefits was $12,711,047 and the actuarial value of assets was zero, resulting in an unfunded actuarial accruedliability (UAAL) of $12,711,047. The covered payroll (annual payroll of active employees covered by the plan) was $4,597,240 and the ratio of the UAAL to the covered payroll was 276.49%. Actuarial valuations of an ongoing plan involve estimates of the value of reported amounts and assumptions about the probability of occurrence of events far into the future. Examples include assumptions about future employment, mortality, and the healthcare cost trend. Amounts determined regarding the funded status of the plan and the annualrequired contributions of theemployer are subject to continual revision as actual results are compared with past expectations and new estimates are made about the future. The schedule of funding progress, presented as required supplementary information following the notes to the basic financial statements, presents multi-year trend information about whether the actuarial value of the plan assets is increasing or decreasing over time relative to the actuarial accrued liabilities for benefits. A-16 Actuarial Methods and Assumptions. Projections of benefits for financial reporting purposes are based on the substantive plan (the plan as understood by the employer and plan members) and include the types of benefits provided at the time of each valuation and the historical pattern of sharing of benefit costs between the employer and plan members to that point. The actuarial methods and assumptions used include techniques that are designed to reduce the effects of short-term volatility in actuarial accrued liabilities and the actuarial value of assets, consistent with the long-term perspective of the calculations. In the July 1, 2014 actuarial valuation, the frozen entry age method (closed period) was used. The actuarial assumptions includes an inflation rate of 4.25% per annum and medical cost trend rates ranging from 4.7% to 9.0% for the first four years and an ultimate rate of 5.0% after four years, dental cost trend is 4% per year. The City’s unfunded actuarial accrued liability is being amortized by level dollar contributions over twenty years as a level dollar amount. For additional information relating to the City’s OPEB obligations, see Note 15 to the City’s audited financial statements for Fiscal Year 2015 attached to the Official Statement as Appendix B. City Investment Policy The City maintains an Investment Policy, which, pursuant to the provisions of Section 53646 of the California Government Code, is annually submitted to and reviewed by the City Council. Any change in the Investment Policy in reviewed and approved by the City Council. Monthly reports are submitted by the Assistant City Manager (formerly the Director of Administrative Services) to the City Council, the City Manager and the City Treasurer, setting forth investment transactions. Additionally, quarterly reports are submitted byAssistant City Manager (formerly the Director of Administrative Services) to the City Council, the City Manager and the City Treasurer, which provides, for each individual investment, the type of investment, the issuer name, purchase date, maturity date, par value, purchase price, current market value and source of valuation and the overall portfolio yield based on cost. The goal of the Investment Policy is to set out the policies and procedures that enhance opportunities for a prudent and systematic investment program and to organize and formalize investment-related activities. The objectives of the Investment Policy are, in the following order of priority: FIRST, Safety of Principal – investments shall be undertaken in a manner that seeks to ensure the preservation of capital in the portfolio. Credit risk is to be mitigated through limiting investments to the types of securities authorized by the Investment Policyand portfolio diversification. Interest rate risk is to be mitigated by structuring the investment portfolio with marketable securities so that securities can be liquidated to meet cash flow needs or structuring the portfolio to mature to meet cash requirements for ongoing operations. SECOND,Liquidity, to ensure that the City’s investment portfolio will remain sufficiently liquid to enable the City to meet all reasonably anticipated operating requirements. THIRD,Yield, to attain a market rate of return throughout budgetary and economic cycles, taking into account the investment risk constraints and the cash flow characteristics of the portfolio. The City’s investment alternatives are specified in California Government Code Sections 53600 et seq. Within this framework, the Investment Policy specifies authorized investments, subject to certain limitations. According to the City Treasurer’s Quarterly Report for the quarter ending June 30, 2016, the market value of the City’s funds was $30,057,747. The investment portfolio includes a variety of fixed income securities that vary in maturity from one day to five years. On June 30, 2016, 12.7% of the City’s total portfolio was invested in investments with a maturity of less than a year, 40.6% in investments with a maturity between 1 to A-17 three years, 25.8% in investments with a maturity of 3 to 4 years and 20.9% in investments with a maturity of up to 5 years. As of June 30, 2016, the portfolio of invested City funds had an average maturity of 2.87 years.

B-1 APPENDIX B SUMMARY OF THE PRINCIPAL LEGAL DOCUMENTS [TO COME FROM BOND COUNSEL] C-1 APPENDIX C AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF THE CITY FOR THE YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2015 D-1 APPENDIX D PROPOSED FORM OF BOND COUNSEL OPINION ________ __, 2016 Lake Elsinore Facilities Financing Authority 130 South Main Street Lake Elsinore, California 92530 Re:$___________ Lake Elsinore Facilities Financing Authority Lease Revenue Bonds, Series 2016A Ladies and Gentlemen: We have acted as bond counsel in connection with the issuance by the Lake Elsinore Facilities Financing Authority (the “Authority”) of the Lake Elsinore Facilities Financing Authority Lease Revenue Bonds, Series 2016A (the “Bonds”) in the aggregate principal amount of $___________. In such connection, we have reviewed the Indenture, dated as of November 1, 2016 (the “Indenture”), by and among Wilmington Trust, National Association, as Trustee (the “Trustee”), the Authority and the City of Lake Elsinore (the “City”), the Lease Agreement, dated as of November 1, 2016 (the “Lease Agreement”), by and between the City and the Authority, the Ground Lease, dated as of November 1, 2016 (the “Ground Lease”), by and between the City and the Authority, the Assignment Agreement, dated as of November 1, 2016 (the “Assignment Agreement”), by and between the Authority and the Trustee, the Tax Certificate of the Authority and the City, dated as of the date hereof (the “Tax Certificate”), opinions of counsel to the Authority, the City and the Trustee, certificates of the Authority, the City and the Trustee and others and such other documents, opinions and matters to the extent we deemed necessary to render the opinions set forth herein. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed thereto 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 obligation of the City to pay Base Rental Payments in accordance with the terms of the Lease Agreement is a valid and binding obligation payable from the funds of the City lawfully available therefore, except as the same may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, fraudulent conveyance, moratorium or other laws relating to or affecting generally the enforcement of creditors’ rights, by equitable principles, by the exercise of judicial discretion in appropriate cases and by the limitations on legal remedies against municipalities in the State of California. The obligation of the City to make Base Rental Payments under the Lease does not constitute a debt of the City, the State of California or any political subdivision thereof within the meaning of any statutory or constitutional debt limitation or restriction and does not constitute a pledge of the faith and credit or taxing power of the City, the State of California or any political subdivision thereof. (2)The Lease Agreement and the Indenture have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the City and the Authority and constitute valid and legally binding agreements of the City and the Authority enforceable against the City and the Authority in accordance with their terms, except as the same may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, fraudulent conveyance, moratorium or other laws relating to or affecting generally the enforcement of creditors’ rights, by equitable principles, by the exercise of judicial discretion in appropriate cases and by the limitations on legal remedies against municipalities in the State of California, except that we express no opinion as to any provisions in the Lease Agreement or the Indenture with respect to indemnification, penalty, contribution, choice of law, choice of forum or waiver. D-2 (3)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, interest on the Bonds may be included as an adjustment in the calculation of alternative minimum taxable income which may affect the alternative minimum tax liability of such corporations. (4)Interest (and original issue discount) on the Bonds is exempt from personal income taxes imposed in the State of California. (5)The difference between the issue price of a Bond (the first price at which a substantial amount of the Bonds of a maturity are to be sold to the public) and the stated redemption price at maturity with respect to such Bonds 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. Original issue discount that accrues to a 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 (as described in paragraph 3 above) and is exempt from State of California personal income tax. (6)The amount by which a Bond owner’s original basis for determining loss on sale or exchange in a 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. The opinions expressed in paragraphs (3) and (5) are subject to the condition that the City and the Authority comply with all requirements of the Code, that must be satisfied subsequent to the delivery 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 requirements of the Code might cause interest (and original issue discount) with respect to the Bonds to be included in gross income for federal income tax purposes retroactive to the date of issuance of the Bonds. The City and the Authority have covenanted to comply with all such requirements. Except as expressly set forth in paragraphs (3), (4), (5) and (6) we express no opinion regarding any tax consequences with respect to the Bonds. Certain agreements, requirements and procedures contained or referred to in the Indenture, the Tax Certificate executed by the City and the Authority and other documents related to the Bonds may be changed and certain actions may be taken or omitted, under the circumstances and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in such documents, 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 interest (and original issue discount) due with respect to any Bond if any such action is taken or omitted based upon the advice of counsel other than Stradling Yocca Carlson & Rauth, a Professional Corporation. We have not made or undertaken to make an investigation of the state of title to any of the real property described in the Lease Agreement, the Ground Lease and the Assignment Agreement or of the accuracy or sufficiency of the description of such property contained therein, and we express no opinion with respect to such matters. D-3 We are admitted to the practice of law only in the State of California and 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. The opinions expressed herein are based upon our analysis and interpretation of existing statutes, regulations, rulings and judicial decisions and cover certain matters not directly addressed by such authorities. The opinions expressed herein 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 any such actions or events are taken or do occur. Our engagement with respect to the Bonds terminates on the date of their execution and delivery. We express no opinion herein as to the accuracy, completeness or sufficiency of the Official Statement 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. Respectfully submitted, E-4 APPENDIX E FORM OF CONTINUING DISCLOSURE CERTIFICATE F-1 APPENDIX F BOOK-ENTRY ONLY SYSTEM The information in this section concerning DTC and DTC’s book-entry only system has been obtained from sources that the Authority and the Underwriter believe to be reliable, but neither the Authority 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 Series 2016 Bonds, payment of principal, premium, if any, accreted value, if any, and interest with respect to the Series 2016 Bonds to DTC Participants or Beneficial Owners, confirmation and transfers of beneficial ownership interests in the Series 2016 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 Series 2016 Bonds. The Series 2016 Bonds will be executed and delivered 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 executed and delivered for each annual maturity of the Series 2016 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 17A 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 is rated AA+ by Standard & Poor’s. 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 and www.dtc.org. Purchases of Bonds under the DTC system must be made by or through Direct Participants, which will receive a credit for the Series 2016 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 Series 2016 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 Bonds, except in the event that use of the book-entry system for the Series 2016 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 F-2 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 Beneficial Owners of the Series 2016 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 Series 2016 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 Series 2016 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 Series 2016 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 Series 2016 Bonds will be made to Cede & Co., or such other nominee as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. DTC’s practice is to credit Direct Participants’ accounts upon DTC’s receipt of funds and corresponding detail information from the 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 Bond by causing the Direct Participant to transfer the Participant’s interest in the Series 2016 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 Series 2016 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 Series 2016 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 Bonds 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 SERIES 2016 BONDS, WILL SEND ANY NOTICE OF REDEMPTION OR OTHER NOTICES TO OWNERS ONLY F-3 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 SERIES 2016 BONDS CALLED FOR REDEMPTION OR OF ANY OTHER ACTION PREMISED ON SUCH NOTICE.

Personal Income Personal Income is the income that is received by all persons from all sources. It is calculated as the sum of wage and salary disbursements, supplements to wages and salaries, proprietors’ income with inventory valuation and capital consumption adjustments, rental income of persons with capital consumption adjustment, personal dividend income, personal interest income, and personal current transfer receipts, less contributions for government social insurance. G-6 The personal income of an area is the income that is received by, or on behalf of, all the individuals who live in the area; therefore, the estimates of personal income are presented by the place of residence of the income recipients.
