or described herein. A full review should be made of the entire Official Statement. The sale and

The Series 2007 Bonds are being issued pursuant to the Mello-Roos Community Facilities
Act of 1982, constituting Section 53311 et seq. of the California Government Code (the "Act") and
the Indenture, dated as of 1, 2007 (the "Indenture"), by and between the Community

undefined terms used herein shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Indenture.
The Series 2007 Bonds will be issued as fully registered bonds in denominations of $5,000 or
any integral multiple thereof and will be dated as of and bear interest from the date of delivery, at the

In accordance with the provisions of the Indenture, and subject to the conditions specified

Pursuant to the Act, the qualified electors of the Community Facilities District approved the
levy of a special tax (the "Special Tax") within the boundaries of the Community Facilities District.

master planned community called Tustin Legacy ("Tustin Legacy"). Approximately 73 acres of the
former Air Station are located in the City of Irvine. See "THE COMMUNITY FACILITIES

"State") or any political subdivision thereof other than the Community Facilities District to the
limited extent described in the Indenture is pledged to the payment of the Bonds. Except for
the Special Taxes, no other taxes are pledged to the payment of the Bonds. The Bonds are not
general or special obligations of the City nor general obligations of the Community Facilities
District, but are special obligations of the Community Facilities District payable solely from the

an integral multiple thereof, as designated by the Community Facilities District in a Written
Certificate of the Community Facilities District filed with the Trustee; provided, however, that the
aggregate amount of such reductions shall not exceed the aggregate amount of Series 2007 Bonds
maturing on September 1, 20_ so optionally redeemed. If some but not all of the Series 2007 Bonds
maturing on September 1, 20_ are redeemed from Special Tax prepayments, the principal amount of
Series 2007 Bonds maturing on September 1, 20_ to be subject to mandatory sinking fund
OHS WEST:260269009.2
redemption on any subsequent September 1 will be reduced by the aggregate principal amount of the
Series 2007 Bonds maturing on September 1, 20_ so redeemed from Special Tax prepayments, such
reduction to be allocated among redemption dates as nearly as practicable on a pro rata basis in
amounts of $5,000 or integral multiples thereof, as determined by the Trustee.
Selection of Series 2007 Bonds for Redemption
If less than all of the Series 2007 Bonds outstanding are to be redeemed, the Trustee shall
select the Series 2007 Bonds to be redeemed from all Series 2007 Bonds not previously called for
redemption (a) with respect to any optional redemption, among maturities of Series 2007 Bonds as
directed in a Written Request of the Community Facilities District, and (b) with respect to any
redemption from Special Tax prepayments, among all maturities of the Series 2007 Bonds on a pro
rata basis as nearly as practicable. For purposes of such selection, all Series 2007 Bonds will be
deemed to be comprised of separate $5,000 denominations and such separate denominations will be
treated as separate Series 2007 Bonds which maybe separately redeemed.
Notice of Redemption
So long as DTC is acting as securities depository for the Series 2007 Bonds, notice of
redemption, containing the information required by the Indenture, will be mailed by first class mail,
postage prepaid, by the Trustee to DTC (not to the Beneficial Owners of any Series 2007 Bonds
designated for redemption) at least 30 days but not more than 60 days prior to the redemption date.
The Trustee must give notice of redemption to each of certain specified securities depositories and
information services designated in the Indenture. The actual receipt by DTC (or any Owner of a
Series 2007 Bond in the event that the book-entry only system is discontinued) of such notice of
redemption is not a condition precedent to redemption, and neither the failure to receive such notice
nor any defect in such notice will affect the validity of the proceedings for redemption of the Series
2007 Bonds or the cessation of interest on the redemption date.
Partial Redemption of Series 2007 Bonds
Upon surrender of any Series 2007 Bonds to be redeemed in part only, the Community
Facilities District will execute and the Trustee will authenticate and deliver to the Owner, at the
expense of the Community Facilities District, a new Series 2007 Bond or Bonds of authorized
denominations equal in aggregate principal amount to the unredeemed portion of the Series 2007
Bonds surrendered, with the same interest rate and the same maturity.
Effect of Notice of Redemption
Notice of redemption having been mailed as described above, and the amount necessary for
the redemption having been made available for that purpose and being available therefor on the date
fixed for such redemption, (a) the Series 2007 Bonds, or portions thereof, designated for redemption,
will become due and payable at the redemption price thereof as provided in the Indenture, (b) upon
presentation and surrender of such Series 2007 Bonds at the office of the Trustee, the redemption
price of such Series 2007 Bonds, together with unpaid accrued interest to said redemption date, will
be paid to the Owners thereof, (c) at the redemption date the Series 2007 Bonds, or portions thereof
so designated for redemption, will be deemed to be no longer outstanding and such Series 2007
Bonds, or portions thereof, will cease to bear further interest, and. (d) as of the date fixed for
redemption, no Owner of any Series 2007 Bonds, or portions thereof so designated for redemption,
will be entitled to any of the benefits of the Indenture or to any other rights, except with respect to
OHS WEST:260269009.2 6
payment of the redemption price and unpaid interest accrued to the redemption date from the
amounts so made available.

THE PROJECT
The Series 2007 Bonds are being issued, in part, to finance the acquisition and construction
of certain public facilities necessary for the development of the Community Facilities District, which
may include the acquisition and construction of all or a portion of street improvements, including
grading, paving, curbs and gutters, sidewalks, street signalization and signage, street lights and
parkway and landscaping related thereto, storm drains, utilities, public parks and recreation facilities,
public library facilities, fire protection facilities and equipment and land, rights-of--way and
easements necessary for any of such facilities. The Community Facilities District expects to use a
portion of the proceeds from the sale of the Series 2007 Bonds to finance the acquisition from the
Developer of those facilities to be constructed by the Developer as set forth in the Second
Amendment to Infrastructure Construction and Payment Agreement, dated as of August 1, 2007, by
and between the City and the Developer. Such facilities consist of improvements to the [Park
Avenue Roadway from Tustin Ranch Road to Warner, Avenue.]
SECURITY FOR THE SERIES 2007 BONDS
General
Pursuant to the Act and. the Indenture, the Bonds, including the Series 2007 Bonds, are
payable from the Net Special Tax Revenues. "Net Special Tax Revenues" is defined under the
Indenture to mean Special Tax Revenues less amounts required to pay Administrative Expenses.
"Special Tax Revenues" is defined under the Indenture to mean the proceeds of the Special Taxes
received by or on behalf of the Community Facilities District, including prepayments thereof, interest
and penalties thereon and proceeds of the redemption or sale of property sold as a result of
foreclosure of the lien of the Special Taxes, which shall be limited to the amount of said lien and
interest and penalties thereon. "Administrative Expenses" is defined under the Indenture to mean
"costs directly related to the administration of the Community Facilities District, consisting of the
costs of computing the Special Taxes and preparing the annual Special Tax schedules and the costs
OHS WEST:260269009.2 $
of collecting the Special Taxes, the costs of remitting the Special Taxes to the Trustee, the fees and
costs of the Trustee (including its legal counsel) in the discharge of the duties required of it under the
Indenture, the costs incurred by the Community Facilities District in complying with the disclosure
provisions of any continuing disclosure undertaking and the Indenture, including those related to
public inquiries regarding the Special Tax and disclosures to Owners, the costs of the Community
Facilities District related to an appeal of the Special Tax, any amounts required to be rebated to the
federal government in order for the Community Facilities District to comply with the Indenture, an
allocable share of the salaries of the staff of the City providing services on behalf of the Community
Facilities District directly related to the foregoing and a proportionate amount of general
administrative overhead of the City related thereto, and the costs of foreclosure of delinquent Special
Taxes." "Special Taxes" is defined under the Indenture to mean the special taxes levied as Special
Tax A within the Community Facilities District pursuant to the Act, the Ordinance and the Indenture.
The payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds will be
exclusively paid from the Net Special Tax Revenues and other amounts in the Special Tax Fund, the
Bond Fund and the Reserve Fund. The amount of Special Taxes that the Community Facilities
District may levy in any year is strictly limited by the maximum rates approved by the qualified
electors within the Community Facilities District, as set forth in the Rate and Method. See "THE
COMMUNITY FACILITIES DISTRICT -Rate and Method of Apportionment." The full text of the
Rate and Method is set forth in Appendix B hereto.
Net Special Tax Revenues deposited in the Rebate Fund and the Administrative Expense
Fund are not pledged to the payment of any of the Bonds, and neither the Rebate Fund nor the
Administrative Expense Fund will be construed as a trust fund held for the benefit of the Owners of
any Bonds.
The Special Taxes
In the Indenture, the Community Facilities District has covenanted that, so long as any Bonds
are outstanding, it will levy the amount of Special Taxes within the Community Facilities District in
accordance with the Rate and Method and, subject to the limitations in the Rate and Method as to the
maximum Special Tax that may be levied, in an amount sufficient, together with other amounts on
deposit in the Special Tax Fund and available for such purpose, to pay the principal of and interest on
the Bonds becoming due and payable during the calendar year commencing in such fiscal year, the
Administrative Expenses estimated for such year, periodic costs on the Bonds, including but not
limited to rebate payments, any amounts required to replenish the Reserve Fund to the Reserve
Requirement and reasonably anticipated delinquent Special Taxes based on the delinquency rate for
Special Taxes levied in the previous fiscal year or otherwise reasonably expected, less funds
available pursuant to the Indenture (collectively, the "Special Tax Requirement for Facilities"). No
assurance can be given that the amounts collected in any given year will, in fact, equal the Special
Tax Requirement for Facilities due to a variety of factors, including the maximum Special Tax rates
and the 45-year maximum term of the Special Tax levy on each parcel in the Community Facilities
District imposed by the Rate and Method. See "THE COMMUNITY FACILITIES DISTRICT -
Rate and Method of Apportionment" and Appendix B hereto. Moreover, it is possible that under
certain circumstances the maximum rates could be reduced from current levels. See "SPECIAL
RISK FACTORS -Right to Vote on Taxes Act" below.
The Special Taxes will be payable and be collected in the same manner and at the same time
and in the same installment as the general taxes on real property are payable, and have the same
OHS WEST:260269009.2 9
priority, become delinquent at the same time and in the same proportionate amounts and bear the
same proportionate penalties and interest. after delinquency as do the ad valorem taxes on real
property. When received, such Special Taxes will be applied as follows: first, to the Administrative
Expense Fund for the payment of Administrative Expenses; second, to the Bond Fund for payment of
debt service on (including payment for redemption of) the Bonds; third, for deposit in the Reserve
Fund to the extent needed to restore the balance therein to the Reserve Requirement; and fourth, for
transfer to the Rebate Fund the amounts, if any, due and owing to the United States Treasury.
The Community Facilities District has covenanted that it will not initiate proceedings under
the Act to modify the Rate and Method if such modification would adversely affect the security for
the Bonds. The Community Facilities District has also covenanted that in the event any initiative or
referendum measure is proposed that purports to modify the Rate and Method in a manner that would
adversely affect the security for the Bonds, the Community Facilities District will, to the extent
permitted by law, commence and pursue reasonable legal actions to prevent the modification of the
Rate and Method in a manner that would adversely affect the security for the Bonds.
Although the Special Taxes will be levied against, and constitute a lien against, taxable
parcels within the Community Facilities District, they do not constitute a personal indebtedness of
the respective property owners. There is no assurance that the Developer or subsequent property
owners will be financially able to pay the annual Special Taxes or that they will pay such taxes even
if financially able to do so. See "SPECIAL RISK FACTORS -Special Tax Delinquencies."
Special Tax Fund
The Special Tax Fund is created and established under the Indenture, and is maintained by
the Trustee. Pursuant to the Indenture, as soon as practicable after the Community Facilities District
receives any Special Tax Revenues, but in any event no later than the date ten Business Days prior to
the Interest Payment Date after such receipt, the Community Facilities District will transfer such
Special Tax Revenues to the Trustee for deposit in the Special Tax Fund; provided, however, that
any portion of any such Special Tax Revenues that represents prepaid Special Taxes that are to be
applied to the payment of the redemption of Series 2007 Bonds in accordance with the mandatory
redemption from special tax prepayments provisions of the Indenture are required to be identified to
the Trustee as such by the Community Facilities District and be deposited in the Redemption Fund.
Pursuant to the Indenture, the Trustee will transfer amounts on deposit in the Special Tax Fund to the
Administrative Expense Fund, the Bond Fund, the Reserve Fund and the other funds established
under the Indenture on the dates, in the amounts and in the priority set forth in the Indenture. See
Appendix D - "Summary of Indenture."
Reserve Fund
The Indenture provides that a Reserve Fund must be maintained in an amount equal to the
Reserve Requirement. Upon the issuance of the Series 2007 Bonds, $ , an amount equal to
the initial Reserve Requirement, will be deposited in the Reserve Fund. The Indenture provides that
the Reserve Requirement means, as of any date of calculation, an amount equal to the least of (a)
10% of the original aggregate principal amount of the Bonds (excluding any Bonds refunded with
proceeds of Additional Bonds), (b) Maximum Annual Debt Service, and (c) 125% of average Annual
Debt Service.
OHS WEST:260269009.2 10
Moneys in the Reserve Fund will be used and withdrawn by the Trustee solely for the
purpose of making transfers to the Bond Fund in the event of any deficiency at any time in the Bond
Fund of the amount then required for payment of the principal of and interest on the Bonds or for the
purpose of redeeming Bonds. Transfers will be made from the Reserve Fund to the Bond Fund in the
event of a deficiency in the Bond Fund, in accordance with the Indenture.
Whenever the balance in the Reserve Fund exceeds the amount required to redeem or pay the
Outstanding Bonds, including interest accrued to the date of payment or redemption and premium, if
any, due upon redemption, the Trustee will, upon receipt of a Written Request of the Community
Facilities District, transfer the amount in the Reserve Fund to the Bond Fund or Redemption Fund, as
applicable, to be applied, on the next succeeding Interest Payment Date to the payment and
redemption of all of the Outstanding Bonds.
In connection with an optional redemption of Bonds or a mandatory redemption of Bonds
from Special Tax prepayments, a proportionate share of the amount on deposit in the Reserve Fund
will, on the date on which amounts to redeem such Bonds are deposited in the Redemption Fund or
otherwise deposited with the Trustee in connection with the defeasance of Bonds, be transferred by
the Trustee from the Reserve Fund to the Redemption Fund or otherwise deposited with the Trustee
and will be applied to the redemption of said Bonds; provided, however, that such amount shall be so
transferred only if and to the extent that the amount remaining on deposit in the Reserve Fund will be
at least equal to the Reserve Requirement (excluding from the calculation thereof said Bonds to be
redeemed). Such proportionate share shall be equal to the largest integral multiple of $5,000 that is
not larger than the amount equal to the product of (a) the amount on deposit in the Reserve Fund on
the date of such transfer, times (b) a fraction, the numerator of which is the principal amount of
Bonds to be so redeemed and the denominator of which is the principal amount of Bonds to be
Outstanding on the day prior to the date on which such Bonds are to be so redeemed.
Additional Bonds
The Indenture provides that the Community Facilities District may, at any time after the
issuance and delivery of the Series 2007 Bonds, issue Additional Bonds payable from the Net Special
Tax Revenues on a parity with all other Bonds issued under the Indenture. Additional Bonds maybe
issued solely for the purpose of providing funds to refund the Series 2007 Bonds. The issuance of
Additional Bonds is subject to certain additional specific conditions precedent. See Appendix D -
"Summary of Indenture."
Covenant for Superior Court Foreclosure
In the event of a delinquency in the payment of any installment of Special Taxes, the
Community Facilities District is authorized by the Act to order institution of an action in the Superior
Court of the State to foreclose any lien therefor. In such action the real property subject to the
Special Taxes maybe sold at a judicial foreclosure sale.
Such judicial foreclosure proceedings are not mandatory. However, in the Indenture, the
Community Facilities District has covenanted for the benefit of the Owners of the Bonds that it will
commence judicial foreclosure proceedings against parcels with delinquent Special Taxes; provided,
however that the Community Facilities District is not required to order the commencement of
foreclosure proceedings if (a) the total Special Tax delinquency in the Community Facilities District
OHS WEST:260269009.2 11
for such fiscal year is less than 5% of the total Special Tax levied in such fiscal year and (b) the
amount then on deposit in the Reserve Fund is equal to the Reserve Requirement. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, if the Community Facilities District determines that any single property owner in the
Community Facilities District is delinquent in excess of [$5,000] in the payment of the Special Tax,
then the Community Facilities District will diligently institute, prosecute and pursue foreclosure
proceedings against such property owner. The Community Facilities District may, but is not
obligated to, advance funds from any source of legally available funds in order to maintain the
Reserve Fund at the Reserve Requirement. In a foreclosure proceeding the Community Facilities
District is entitled to recover penalties and interest on the delinquent Special Taxes through the date
that an order of sale is entered. Prompt commencement of foreclosure proceedings may not, in and
of itself, result in a timely or complete payment of delinquent Special Taxes.
The ability of the Community Facilities District to foreclose the lien of delinquent unpaid
Special Taxes may be limited in certain instances and may require prior consent of the obligee in the
event the property is owned by or in receivership of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. See
"SPECIAL RISK FACTORS -Bankruptcy," "- Payments by FDIC or Other Federal Agencies" and
"-Billing of Special Taxes."
If the Reserve Fund is depleted, there could be a default or a delay in payments to the Owners
of the Bonds pending prosecution of foreclosure proceedings and receipt by the Community
Facilities District of foreclosure sale proceeds, if any. However, within the limits of the Rate and
Method, the Community Facilities District may adjust the Special Taxes levied on all taxable
property within the Community Facilities District to provide an amount required to pay debt service,
including defaulted interest and principal payments, on the Bonds and to replenish the Reserve Fund.
No assurances can be given that a judicial foreclosure action, once commenced, will be
completed or that it will be completed in a timely manner. If a judgment of foreclosure and order of
sale is obtained, the judgment creditor (the Community Facilities District) must cause a Notice of
Levy to be issued. Under current law, a judgment debtor (property owner) has 120 days from the
date of service of the Notice of Levy in which to redeem the property to be sold, which period may
be shortened to 20 days for parcels other than those on which a dwelling unit for not more than four
persons is located. If a judgment debtor fails to redeem and the property is sold, his only remedy is
an action to set aside the sale, which must be brought within 90 days of the date of sale. If, as a
result of such an action, a foreclosure sale is set aside, the judgment is revived and the judgment
creditor is entitled to interest on the revived judgment as if the sale had not been made (Section
701.680 of the California Code of Civil Procedure). The constitutionality of the aforementioned
legislation, which repeals the former one-year redemption period, has not been tested; and there can
be no assurance that, if tested, such legislation will be upheld.
Property Values
An appraisal of the property in the Community Facilities District, dated June 14, 2007 (the
"Appraisal"), was prepared by Harris Realty Appraisal (the "Appraiser"). The Appraisal was
prepared to estimate the market value of the land in the Community Facilities District in its "as is"
condition (the "Market Value"). Any land designated for park, open space or civic uses within the
Community Facilities District was not included in the Appraisal, nor was property that is not subject
to the Special Tax. The estimated value expressed in the Appraisal was stated as of June 1, 2007.
See the Appraisal included in Appendix A hereto for a description of the assumptions made and the
valuation methodology used by the Appraiser.
OHS WEST:260269009.2 12
The Appraiser has utilized the direct comparison approach to value the land in the
Community Facilities District. As noted above, the Appraiser excluded the parcels defined in the
Rate and Method as Privately Owned Specific Retail Property (i.e., the parcels that are not subject to
the Special Tax) from the Appraisal. The land and improvements thereon were valued in their "as is"
condition as of June 1, 2007, the date of value. The Community Facilities District is essentially in a
finished lot condition; however certain off-site improvements are still under construction but are
expected to be substantially complete by November 2007.
Based on the direct comparison approach and the assumptions set forth in the Appraisal, the
Appraiser estimated the Market Value of the property subject to the Special Tax within the
Community Facilities District as of June 1, 2007, to be approximately $140,000,000. Proceeds of
Series 2007 Bonds of approximately $13,000,000 are expected to be used to reimburse the Developer
for a portion of the approximately $[190,000,000] in on-site and off-site improvements expended or
to be expended by the Developer within the Community Facilities District.
Direct and Overlapping Debt
Contained within the Community Facilities District are overlapping local agencies providing
public services. Some of such local agencies have outstanding bonds or authorization to issue bonds
payable from taxes or special assessments.
Water District Debt
The property in the Community Facilities District receives water and sewer service from the
Irvine Ranch Water District ("IRWD") and is located within IRWD's Improvement District Nos. 113
and 213 (collectively, the "IRWD Improvement Districts"). At an election held on August 31, 2004,
IRWD received authorization to issue not to exceed $26,000,000 aggregate principal amount of
general obligation bonds for Improvement District No. 113 and $87,000,000 aggregate principal
amount of general obligation bonds for Improvement District No. 213. IRWD issued $1,500,000
aggregate principal amount of general obligation bonds for Improvement District No. 113 and
$11,100,000 aggregate principal amount of general obligation bonds for Improvement District No.
213 in February 2006. IRWD issued additional general obligation bonds pursuant to such
authorization for Improvement District No. 113 in the aggregate principal amount of $5,000,000 and
for Improvement District No. 213 in the aggregate principal amount of $6,300,000 in July 2007.
IRWD Improvement District bonds are general obligation bonds payable from ad valorem
taxes; the amount of the tax levy on each parcel is based on the assessed valuation of the land only.
The Community Facilities District cannot predict the amount of authorized but unissued bonds for
IRWD Improvement Districts that will ultimately be issued by IRWD, nor can it predict when such
debt will be issued or the debt service payments thereon.

Other Potential Debt
The Community Facilities District has no control over the amount of additional debt payable
from taxes or assessments levied on all or a portion of the property within the Community Facilities
District which maybe incurred in the future by other governmental agencies having jurisdiction over
all or a portion of the property within the Community Facilities District. Furthermore, nothing
prevents the owners of property within the Community Facilities District from consenting to the
issuance of additional debt by other governmental agencies which would be secured by taxes or
assessments on a parity with the Special Taxes. To the extent such indebtedness is payable from
assessments, other special taxes levied pursuant to the Act or taxes, such assessments, special taxes
and taxes will be secured by liens on the property within the Community Facilities District on a
parity with the lien of the Special Taxes.
Accordingly, the debt on the property within the Community Facilities District could
increase, without any corresponding increase in the value of the property therein, and thereby
severely reduce the estimated value-to-lien ratio that exists at the time the Series 2007 Bonds are
issued. The imposition of such additional indebtedness could reduce the willingness and ability of
the property owners within the Community Facilities District to pay the Special Taxes when due.
See "SPECIAL RISK FACTORS -Cumulative Burden of Parity Taxes, Special Assessments."
Moreover, in the event of a delinquency in the payment of Special Taxes, no assurance can
be given that the proceeds of any foreclosure sale of property with delinquent Special Taxes would
be sufficient to pay the delinquent Special Taxes. See "SPECIAL RISK FACTORS - Appraised
Values."
Estimated Value-to-Lien Ratios
The values, direct and overlapping debt and total tax burden on property vary among parcels
within the Community Facilities District. The $15,365,000* principal amount of Series 2007 Bonds
constitutes direct debt for the property in the Community Facilities District. As set forth in Table 1
under "Direct and Overlapping Debt -Direct and Overlapping Debt Summary" above, as of May 1,
2007, there is approximately $3,821,944 of other outstanding public indebtedness applicable to
property in the Community Facilities District. Thus, the estimated direct and overlapping debt
allocable to the property in the Community Facilities District is approximately $19,186,944.
The market value of the property in the Community Facilities District as of June 1, 2007, as
estimated by the Appraiser in the Appraisal, was approximately $140,000,000, which is
approximately 9.1 * times the principal amount of the Series 2007 Bonds and 7.3 * times the sum of
the principal amount of the Series 2007 Bonds, plus the amount of all the other outstanding public
indebtedness allocable thereto, under the assumptions described in Table 1.
The foregoing value-to-lien ratios represent estimated averages for the property within
the Community Facilities District only; the actual ratios for individual parcels of land within
the Community Facilities District may vary significantly.
No assurance can be given that any of the foregoing value-to-lien ratios will be maintained
during the period of time that the Series 2007 Bonds are Outstanding. The Community Facilities
* Preliminary, subject to change.
OHS WEST:260269009.2 15
District has no control over future property values or the amount of additional indebtedness that may
be issued in the future by other public agencies, the payment of which, through the levy of a tax or an
assessment, is on a parity with the Special Taxes. See "SPECIAL RISK FACTORS -Appraised
Value" and "- Additional and Overlapping Debt."
THE COMMUNITY FACILITIES DISTRICT
General
The Community Facilities District was established in accordance with the Act and constitutes
a legally constituted governmental entity separate and apart from the City. The Community Facilities
District is located at the northwest corner of Barranca Parkway and Jamboree Road. An extension of
Tustin Ranch Road from Walnut Avenue to Barranca Parkway will border the west side of the
Community Facilities District. The Community Facilities District represents additional development
of the 1,533 acre master planned community known as Tustin Legacy, which was formerly the
Marine Corps Air Station Tustin and is the first phase of commercial development in Tustin Legacy.
See "Former Marine Corps Air Station Tustin."
The Community Facilities District consists of approximately 82.57 gross acres of land, of
which approximately 44.3 acres are anticipated to be subject to the Special Tax. The Community
Facilities District will consist of a shopping center named "The District at Tustin Legacy." The
District at Tustin Legacy is intended to be the primary retail and entertainment component of Tustin
Legacy. The District at Tustin Legacy is expected to include approximately 985,000 square feet of
building area, including three "big box" buildings, freestanding retail and restaurant pads, inline
retail tenant spaces, and a movie theater complex, with supporting parking facilities and
landscaping. The movie theater complex contains 14 screens and approximately 3,000 stadium-
style seats. The three "big box" buildings will be occupied by Costco, Lowe's, and Target.
Pursuant to the Rate and Method, Privately Owned Specific Retail Property is not subject to the
Special Tax. The Privately Owned Specific Retail Property consists of seven parcels improved or to
be improved with a Costco, Lowe's, Target, Wells Fargo Bank, In-N-Out Burger and Chick-Fil-A.
Costco and Lowe's own the property on which their buildings are situated. Target is leasing the
property on which its building will be situated from the Developer. See "-Property Ownership
and Development."
Grading in the Community Facilities District began in January 2006 and approximately 90
percent of the construction within the Community Facilities District was complete as of June 30,
2007. Construction is expected to be substantially complete by November 2007.
Tustin Legacy
Tustin Legacy is an approximately 1,533 acre planned community in central Orange County.

Summary of District Proceedings
Pursuant to the Act, the City Council of the City adopted Resolution No. 07-_ on May 1,
2007, stating its intention to establish the Community Facilities District and to authorize the levy of
special taxes within the boundaries of the Community Facilities District. On the same date, the City
Council of the City also adopted Resolution No. 07-_ stating its intention to have the Community
Facilities District incur bonded indebtedness in an amount not to exceed $16,000,000.
Following public hearings conducted pursuant to the provisions of the Act, the City Council
of the City adopted Resolution No. 07-44 on June 19, 2007, establishing the Community Facilities
District. The City Council of the City also adopted Resolution No. 07-45 determining the necessity
to have the Community Facilities District incur up to $16,000,000 of bonded indebtedness. Both
resolutions called for a special election to submit propositions to authorize the levy of the Special
Tax and incurring of the bonded indebtedness to the qualified electors of the Community Facilities
District.
At a special election held on June 19, 2007, the owners of the property within the boundaries
of the Community Facilities District authorized the Community Facilities District to incur bonded
indebtedness in an amount not to exceed $16,000,000 and approved the Rate and Method to pay the
principal of and interest on all bonds issued by the Community Facilities District.
Rate and Method of Apportionment
The full text of the Rate and Method is set forth in Appendix B hereto. Capitalized terms
used under this caption have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Rate and Method.
The Community Facilities District is legally authorized and has covenanted to cause the levy
of the Special Taxes in an amount determined according to a methodology, i. e., the Rate and Method,
which the City Council of the City and the qualified electors of the Community Facilities District
have approved. The Rate and Method apportions the total amount of Special Taxes to be collected
among the taxable parcels in the Community Facilities District as more particularly described herein.
The Community Facilities District adopted the Rate and Method following a public hearing and an
election conducted pursuant to the provisions of the Act.
The Rate and Method classifies the Special Taxes as Special Tax A and Special Tax B. The
Rate and Method classifies Taxable Property as either Developed Property, Undeveloped Property or
Public Property. The Rate and Method exempts Privately Owned Specific Retail Property and Public
Property from the Special Tax A. The Special Tax A is the Special Tax levied to fund the Special
Tax Requirement for Facilities and is pledged to the payment of the Bonds. The Special Tax B is the
Special Tax levied to fund the provision of certain services but is not pledged to the payment of the
Bonds.
OHS WEST:260269009.2 17
The amount of Special Taxes that the Community Facilities District may levy is limited by
the Maximum Special Tax rates set forth in the Rate and Method. The Rate and Method sets forth
the Maximum Special Tax A for each Lot of Developed Property. Under the Rate and Method, the
Maximum Special Tax A for a parcel of Developed Property will be increased on each July 1,
commencing July 1, 2008, by an amount equal to two percent of the amount in effect for the previous
fiscal year.
Under the Rate and Method, the Maximum Special Tax A for Undeveloped Property is
$26,051 per acre for fiscal year 2007-08, subject to escalation on each July 1, commencing July 1,
2008, by an amount equal to two percent of the amount in effect for the previous fiscal year.
Commencing with fiscal year 2007-08 and each following fiscal year, the City Council of the
City, acting in its capacity as the legislative body of the Community Facilities District, will determine
the Special Tax Requirement for Facilities and will levy the Special Tax A until the total Special Tax
Levy A equals the Special Tax Requirement for Facilities. The Special Tax Requirement for
Facilities is defined under the Rate and Method as the amount required to pay the sum of the
principal of and interest on the Bonds becoming due and payable during the calendar year
commencing in such fiscal year, the Administrative Expenses estimated for such year, periodic costs
on the Bonds, including but not limited to rebate payments, any amounts required to replenish the
Reserve Fund to the Reserve Requirement and reasonably anticipated delinquent Special Taxes based
on the delinquency rate for Special Taxes levied in the previous fiscal year or otherwise reasonably
expected, less funds available pursuant to the Indenture.
The City Council of the City levies the Special Tax A in the following order, until the amount
of the levy equals the amount needed to be collected to satisfy the Special Tax Requirement for
Facilities:
First: the Special Tax A is levied Proportionately on each assessor's parcel of Developed
Property at up to 100% of the applicable Maximum Special Tax A; and
Second: if additional moneys are needed to satisfy the Special Tax Requirement for
Facilities after the first step has been completed, then the Special Tax A will be levied
proportionately on each assessor's parcel of Undeveloped Property at up to 100% of the Maximum
Special Tax A for Undeveloped Property.
The term "Proportionately" as used in the above steps means that the ratio of the actual
Special Tax levy to the Maximum Special Tax is equal for all Lots of Taxable Property. A "Lot" is
defined under the Rate and Method as a lot created by a final map for which building permits may or
have been issued.
The Rate and Method also provides that the Special Tax A will be levied on each
assessor's parcel for a period not to exceed 45 years commencing with fiscal year 2007-08. The
Special Tax A obligation applicable to a lot within the Community Facilities District may be
prepaid and the obligation to pay any Special Tax A for such lot may be fully or partially
satisfied as described in the Rate and Method.
OHS WEST:260269009.2 18
Former Marine Corps Air Station Tustin
Tustin Legacy was formerly a part of the Marine Corps Air Station Tustin. The Air Station
was in operation for approximately 50 years as a military base but was included in base closure
actions taken by the United States Government in 1991, 1993 and 1995. In 1992, the City began
preparing a reuse plan for the Air Station. In October 1996, the City Council of the City adopted the
"MCAS Tustin Specific Plan/Reuse Plan" (the "Reuse Plan") which addressed transportation,
housing, employment and recreational issues relating to the closure and subsequent reuse of the Air
Station property. Such Reuse Plan was subsequently amended in September 1998. Pursuant to the
Defense Base Closure and Realignment Act of 1990, the Air Station was closed on July 2, 1999.
In January 2001, the City Council of the City adopted a general plan land use designation
entitled "Marine Corps Air Station Tustin Specific Plan" for Tustin Legacy. The City also prepared a
Specific Plan detailing planning policies, regulations and implementation strategies to guide
development within Tustin Legacy. Approximately 1,153 acres of the former Air Station were
conveyed to the City pursuant to the "Agreement Between the United States of America and the City
of Tustin, California for the Conveyance of a Portion of the Former Marine Corp Air Station Tustin"
dated May 13, 2002. In February 2003, the City Council of the City adopted the Specific Plan. The
Specific Plan sets forth the zoning and entitlement framework for the development of Tustin Legacy,
which includes the Community Facilities District. The Specific Plan conforms to and implements the
Reuse Plan and the City's General Plan. Since its adoption in 2003, the Specific Plan has been
amended from time to time.
CEQA Compliance
The City (the lead agency responsible for processing and approving the master entitlement
and environmental review documents for the Air Station) and the United States Government prepared
a Joint Final Environmental Impact Statement and Environmental Impact Report for the Disposal and
Reuse of Marine Air Corps Station Tustin ("FEIS/EIR") in accordance with the National
Environmental Protection Act and the California Environmental Quality Act. The City adopted the
FEIS/EIR on January 21, 2001 and certified a supplement to the FEIS/EIR in December 2004 and an
addendum to the FEIS/EIR in April 2006 (as so supplemented from time to time, the "Final
FEIS/EIR"). In March 2001 the United States Government issued a Record of Decision approving
the FEIS/EIR and the Reuse Plan.
The Final FEIS/EIR is a program environmental impact report ("program EIR") under
CEQA. By statute, additional future environmental review on any public or private development
activity may be necessary if (i) substantial changes are proposed in the project, (ii) substantial
changes occur with respect to the circumstances under which the project is undertaken, or (iii) new
information becomes available that was not known at the time the environmental impact report was
certified as complete. However, the program EIR may make subsequent, extensive environmental
review unnecessary. CEQA guidelines establish that where an EIR has been prepared and certified
for a program consistent with the requirements established thereby, any lead agency for a later
project pursuant to or consistent with such program should limit the EIR or negative declaration on
the later project to effects which (i) were not examined as significant effects on the environment in
the prior -EIR, or (ii) are susceptible to substantial reduction or avoidance by the choice of specific
revisions in the project, by the imposition of conditions or other means.
OHS WEST:260269009.2 19
The developers of property in Tustin Legacy, including the Community Facilities District,
will be responsible for adhering to all applicable provisions of the FEIS/EIR and all requirements of
CEQA that might apply to development activities by any such developer either on-site or off-site.
In conjunction with the approval of entitlements for the Community Facilities District,
Twining Laboratories, Inc. (the "Environmental Consultant"), prepared a Phase I Environmental Site
Assessment, dated October 6, 2004 (the "Phase I Report"), for the property included in the
Community Facilities District. The Phase I Report concluded, among other things, that, with the
exception of certain portions of the Community Facilities District property that were in the process of
being remediated by the Department of the Navy at the time the Phase I Report was completed, the
Community Facilities District property had been approved for "no further action" status by the
responsible regulatory agencies. Since the date of the Phase I Report, all of the Community Facilities
District property that was excepted from "no further action" status has been remediated.
Accordingly, the City has determined that no further CEQA action is required in connection with the
development within the Community Facilities District.
Disposition and Development Agreement
General. The Developer and the City have entered into the Tustin Legacy Disposition
and Development Agreement (Retail Development), dated as of July 20, 2004, as amended by
the First Amendment to Tustin Legacy Disposition and Development Agreement (Retail
Development), dated as of March 25, 2005, as further amended by the Second Amendment to
Tustin Legacy Disposition and Development Agreement (Retail Development), dated as of June
8, 2005 (collectively, the "DDA"). The DDA establishes an agreement between the City and the
Developer for the purchase from the City and the development by the Developer of most of the
developable property within the Community Facilities District. The DDA contemplates that the
Developer will construct three types of improvements within the Community Facilities District
in connection with the Development: (1) "vertical improvements," consisting of buildings, other
structures and landscaping; (2) "horizontal improvements," consisting of on-site and off-site
infrastructure improvements, such as improvements to public streets, wet and dry utilities, and
common areas and parks; and (3) Tustin Legacy Backbone Infrastructure Work Program
Improvements (as defined in the DDA), including the widening and improvement of certain
roads and intersections and other public backbone infrastructure surrounding the Community
Facilities District.
The DDA includes default provisions that, among other things, permit the City to
repurchase from the Developer all or any portion of the Developer's property within the
Community Facilities District, together with the improvements thereon, at a price equal to such
property's Fair Market Value (as defined in the DDA). The DDA also permits the City, under
limited circumstances, to exercise a right of reversion in the event of uncured defaults by the
Developer thereunder, which right of reversion permits the City to (a) terminate the DDA as to
all or a portion of the Developer's Community Facilities District property and/or the
improvements thereon, and (b) thereafter to re-enter the affected property and/or improvements
and re-vest title thereto in the City, such title to be subject to any existing mortgages permitted
under the DDA.
Status of the Development. Grading in the Community Facilities District began in
January 2006. Approximately 90 percent of the construction within the Community Facilities
OHS WEST:260269009.2 20
District was complete as of June 30, 2007. Construction is expected to be substantially complete
by November 2007. Pursuant to the DDA, upon completion of all improvements required under
.the DDA, the Developer will submit a request to the City for a final certificate of compliance.
Upon the approval of such request by the City, the City will issue the final certificate of
compliance and will cause it to be recorded in the official records of the County.

The Developer's Financing Plan
Construction Loan. The Developer has obtained a construction loan (the "Construction
Loan") from a consortium of banks led by Bank of America, NA, and JPMorgan Chase & Co.
The Construction Loan is secured by a deed of trust that encumbers the property owned by the
OHS WEST:260269009.2 26
Developer in the Community Facilities District. The original committed amount to be borrowed
under the Construction Loan was $221,675,000. The outstanding balance of the Construction
Loan as of June 30, 2007, was approximately $163,702,662. The Construction Loan is subject to
interest-only payments at interest only at a rate equal to the London Interbank Offered Rate
("LIBOR"), plus 1.75%. The principal of the Construction Loan is due and payable on June 1,
2008, subject to two one-year extensions.
In addition to the proceeds of the Construction Loan, the Developer has expended
approximately $69,900,000 in available cash to pay for a portion of the construction costs related
to the Community Facilities District.
Estimated Development Costs. As of June 30, 2007, the Developer estimates that it had
expended approximately $223,656,000 in construction costs. After subtracting parcel sales of
approximately $21,720,000 and development reimbursements of approximately $17,800,908, the
net development costs were approximately $184,135,000 as of June 30, 2007. The following
table describes the estimated construction budget as of June 30, 2007. There can be no assurance
that there will not be changes in the budgeted amounts shown in the table below. Although the
following table reflects the Developer's current projections, many factors beyond its control, or a
decision by the Developer to alter its current plans, may cause the actual costs required to
construct and complete the development in the Community Facilities District to differ from the
projections set forth below.
The inclusion of the following budget in this Official Statement is not intended to
guarantee a particular result, but rather to indicate that, based on expected revenues and
expenditures, the Developer believes that the development described herein is feasible. Future
changes in the Developer's financial projections are expected to be included in the continuing
disclosure reports to be prepared by the Developer in accordance with the Continuing Disclosure
Agreement to be executed by the Developer upon the issuance of the Bonds. See Appendix E -
"Forms of Continuing Disclosure Agreements."

As indicated above, the preceding description of expected development by the Developer is
based on information provided to the Community Facilities District by the Developer for purposes of
this Official Statement. No representation is made as to the experience, abilities or financial
resources of the Developer or as to the likelihood that the Developer will be successful in developing
OHS WEST:260269009.2 28
the Community Facilities District. The Community Facilities District has not made, nor will it make,
any investigation of the Developer. See "SPECIAL RISK FACTORS -Failure to Develop. "
SPECIAL RISK FACTORS
The following is a discussion of certain risk factors which should be considered, in addition
to other matters set forth herein, in evaluating the investment quality of the Series 2007 Bonds. This
discussion does not purport to be comprehensive or definitive. The occurrence of one or more of the
events discussed herein could adversely affect the ability or willingness of property owners in the
Community Facilities District to pay their Special Taxes when due. Such a failure to pay Special
Taxes could result in the inability of the Community Facilities District to make full and punctual
payments on the Series 2007 Bonds.
Concentration of Ownership and Leasehold Interests
As of June 1, 2007, the property within the Community Facilities District subject to the
Special Tax was owned by the Developer. See "THE COMMUNITY FACILITIES DISTRICT -
Property Ownership and Development." The timely payment of debt service on the Series 2007
Bonds depends upon the willingness and ability of the Developer to pay the Special Tax installments
when due. Conditions may affect the willingness of the Developer, or any other property owners, to
pay Special Tax installments on property and there is no assurance that the owners will pay such
Special Tax installments even if financially able to do so.
The initial terms of the leases are significantly shorter than the September 1, 20 maturity
date of the Series 2007 Bonds. In the event that tenants do not execute lease extensions after the
expiration of their initial lease terms, the Developer will be required to find new tenants. There can
be no assurance that such tenants will exercise lease extensions after the initial terms of their
respective leases, and if not, that the Developer can or will find replacement tenants. The failure of
such tenants to extent their leases or the inability of the Developer to find replacement tenants could
adversely effect the ability or willingness of the Developer to pay Special Tax installments on the
property in the Community Facilities District. See "THE COMMUNITY FACILITIES DISTRICT -
Property Ownership and Development -Table 3."
Risks Associated with Ongoing Ownership and Operation of "The District at Tustin Legacy"
The ability or willingness of the Developer to pay the Special Taxes could be adversely
affected by the ability of the Developer to establish appropriate rental rates for, and the continuing
ability to rent space in, The District at Tustin Legacy. In addition, in order to lease retail space, it
may be necessary for the Developer to expend a significant amount of funds. There is no assurance
that the Developer will have funds available for this purposes, or that it will choose to utilize
available funds for this purpose as leases expire. Moreover, to the extent there are any expenditures
required to maintain The District at Tustin Legacy that are not foreseen by the Developer, the only
source of money to pay such unanticipated expenses would be the Developer, and there can be no
assurance that the Developer would be willing or able to pay such additional expenditures. Any of
the foregoing events may adversely affect the Developer's ability to generate sufficient rental income
to pay the Special Tax installments when due.
OHS WEST:260269009.2 29
Risk of Changes in Market Conditions
The financial viability of the commercial business in the Community Facilities District
could be adversely affected as a result of changes in real estate market conditions and changes in
general economic conditions. The leases provide that the tenants are responsible for the payment
of the taxes on the space occupied by the tenant. If any tenant defaults in the payment of such
taxes, the Developer or any subsequent owner is responsible for such payments. There can be no
assurance that any such change in real estate market conditions or general economic conditions
will not impact the ability of the tenants to pay their taxes when due, which in turn, may
adversely affect the ability of the Developer to pay the Special Tax installments when due.
The Series 2007 Bonds are Limited Obligations of the Community Facilities District
Funds for the payment of the principal of, and interest on, the Series 2007 Bonds are derived
from Special Taxes levied in the Community Facilities District. The Special Taxes collected by the
Community Facilities District could be insufficient to pay debt service on the Series 2007 Bonds due
to non-payment of annual Special Taxes or insufficient proceeds received from the sales of land
within the Community Facilities District due to delinquencies. The Community Facilities District's
obligation with respect to delinquent Special Taxes is limited to the institution of judicial foreclosure
proceedings under the circumstances described in the Indenture. See "SECURITY FOR THE
SERIES 2007 BONDS -Covenant for Superior Court Foreclosure."
The Special Taxes are not Personal Obligations of the Developer or Subsequent Property
Owners
The obligation to pay Special Taxes levied within the Community Facilities District does not
constitute a personal obligation of the Developer or subsequent owners of the property in the
Community Facilities District. Enforcement of Special Tax payment obligations by the Community
Facilities District is limited to judicial foreclosure in the Orange County Superior Court. See
'"SECURITY FOR THE SERIES 2007 BONDS -Covenant for Superior Court Foreclosure." There
is no assurance that the Developer or any subsequent owner of a parcel subject to Special Taxes will
be able to pay the Special Taxes, or that such owner will choose to pay such installments even though
financially able to do so.
Special Tax Delinquencies
The Special Taxes will be billed to properties within the Community Facilities District on the
ad valorem property tax bills sent to owners of such properties, i.e., the Developer. Such Special Tax
installments will be due and payable and bear the same penalties and interest for non-payment, as do
ad valorem property tax installments.
Significant delinquencies in the payment of annual Special Tax installments, or delays in the
prosecution of foreclosure proceedings to collect such Special Taxes, could result in the depletion of
the Reserve Fund and default in payment of debt service on the Series 2007 Bonds. See
"SECURITY FOR THE SERIES 2007 BONDS -Covenant for Superior Court Foreclosure," for a
discussion of the provisions that apply, and the procedures that the Community Facilities District is
obligated to follow, under the Indenture in the event of delinquencies in the payment of Special
Taxes. See "- Payments by FDIC or Other Federal Agencies" and "-Bankruptcy" below, for a
discussion of the policy of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation regarding the payment of
OHS WEST:260269009.2 30
special taxes and limitations on the Community Facilities District's ability to foreclose on the lien of
the Special Taxes in certain circumstances.
Bankruptcy
The payment of Special Taxes and the ability of the Community Facilities District to
foreclose the lien of a delinquent Special Tax may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, or other
laws generally affecting creditor's rights or by the laws of the State relating to judicial foreclosure.
The various legal opinions to be delivered concurrently with the delivery of Series 2007
Bonds (including Bond Counsel's approving legal opinion) will be qualified, as to the enforceability
of the various legal instruments, by bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, or other similar laws
affecting the rights of creditors generally.
Although bankruptcy proceedings would not cause the Special Taxes to become
extinguished, the amount of any lien on property securing the payment of delinquent Special Taxes
could be reduced if the value of the property were determined by the bankruptcy court to have
become less than the amount of the lien, and the amount of the delinquent Special Taxes in excess of
the reduced lien would then be treated as an unsecured claim by the court. Further, bankruptcy of a
property owner could result in a delay in prosecuting superior court foreclosure proceedings. Such a
delay would increase the likelihood of a delay or default in payment of the principal of, and interest
on, the Series 2007 Bonds and the possibility of delinquent tax installments not being paid in full.
The prosecution of foreclosure proceedings could also be delayed for other reasons, including
crowded court calendars and procedural delaying tactics.
Insufficiency of Special Taxes
The Act provides that if any property within the Community Facilities District not otherwise
exempt from the Special Tax is acquired by a public entity through a negotiated transaction, or by
gift or devise, the Special Taxes will continue to be levied on and enforceable against the public
entity that acquired the property. In addition, the Act provides that if property subject to the Special
Tax is acquired by a public entity through eminent domain proceedings, the obligation to pay the
Special Tax with respect to that property is to be treated as if it were a special assessment and be paid
from the eminent domain award. The constitutionality and operative effect of these provisions have
not been tested in the courts. If for any reason property subject to the Special Tax becomes exempt
from taxation by reason of ownership by a nontaxable entity such as the federal government, or
another public. agency, subject to the limitation of the maximum Special Taxes, the Special Taxes
will be reallocated to the remaining properties within the Community Facilities District. This would
result in the owners of such properties paying a greater amount of the Special Tax and could have an
adverse effect on the timely payment of the Special Tax.
Disclosures to Future Purchasers
The Community Facilities District has recorded a Notice of Special Tax Lien in the Office of
the County Recorder of the County. While title companies normally refer to such notices in title
reports, there can be no guarantee that such reference will be made or, if made, that a prospective
purchaser will consider such obligation for Special Taxes in the purchase of a parcel subject to the
Special Tax or the lending of money secured thereby. Failure to disclose the existence of the Special
Taxes or the full amount of the pro rata share of debt on the land in the Community Facilities District
OHS WEST:260269009.2 31
may affect the willingness and ability of future owners of land within the Community Facilities
District to pay the Special Taxes when due.
Billing of Special Taxes
A special tax formula can result in a substantially heavier property tax burden being imposed
upon properties within a community facilities district than elsewhere in a city or county, and this in
turn can lead to problems in the collection of the special tax. In some community facilities districts
the taxpayers have refused to pay the special tax and have commenced litigation challenging the
special tax, the community facilities district and the bonds issued by the community facilities district.
Under provisions of the Act, the Special Taxes are to be billed to the properties within the
Community Facilities District which were entered on the Assessment Roll of the County Assessor by
January 1 of the previous fiscal year on the regular property tax bills sent to owners of such
properties. Such Special Tax installments are due and payable, and bear the same penalties and
interest for non-payment, as do regular property tax installments. These Special Tax installment
payments cannot be made separately from property tax payments. Therefore, the unwillingness or
inability of a property owner to pay regular property tax bills as evidenced by property tax
delinquencies may also indicate an unwillingness or inability to make regular property tax payments
and installment payments of Special Taxes in the future. See "SECURITY FOR THE SERIES 2007
BONDS -Covenant for Superior Court Foreclosure," for a discussion of the provisions which apply,
and procedures which the Community Facilities District is obligated to follow, in the event of
delinquency in the payment of installments of Special Taxes.
Natural Disasters
The Community Facilities District, like all California communities, may be subject to
unpredictable seismic activity, fires due to the vegetation and topography, or flooding in the wake of
fires or in the event of unseasonable rainfall. There is significant potential for destructive ground-
shaking during the occurrence of a major seismic event. In addition, land susceptible to seismic
activity may be subject to liquefaction during such an event. The occurrence of earthquakes, fires or
flooding in or around the Community Facilities District could result in substantial damage to .both
property and infrastructure in the Community Facilities District which, in turn, could substantially
reduce the ability or willingness of the Developer or any future property owner to pay their Special
Taxes when due.
Payments by FDIC or Other Federal Agencies
The ability of the Community Facilities District to collect the Special Taxes and interest and
penalties specified by State law, and to foreclose the lien of delinquent Special Taxes, maybe limited
in certain respects with regard to properties in which the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the
"FDIC") or other similar federal governmental agencies has or obtains an interest. On June 4, 1991,
the FDIC issued a Statement of Policy Regarding the Payment of State and Local Property Taxes (the
"1991 Policy Statement"). The 1991 Policy Statement was revised and superseded by a new Policy
Statement effective January 9, 1997 (the "Policy Statement"). The Policy Statement provides that
real property owned by the FDIC is subject to state and local real property taxes only if those taxes
are assessed according to the property's value, and that the FDIC is immune from real property taxes
assessed on any basis other than property value. According to the Policy Statement, the FDIC will
pay its property tax obligations when they become due and payable and will pay claims for
OHS WEST:260269009.2 32
delinquent property taxes as promptly as is consistent with sound business practice and the orderly
administration of the institution's affairs, unless abandonment of the FDIC's interest in the property
is appropriate. The FDIC will pay claims for interest on delinquent property taxes owed at the rate
provided under state law, to the extent the interest payment obligation is secured by a valid lien. The
FDIC will not pay any amounts in the nature of fines or penalties and will not pay nor recognize liens
for such amounts. If any property taxes (including interest) on FDIC owned property are secured by
a valid lien (in effect before the property became owned by the FDIC), the FDIC will pay those
claims. The Policy Statement further provides that no property of the FDIC is subject to levy,
attachment, garnishment, foreclosure or sale without the FDIC's consent. In addition, the FDIC will
not permit a lien or security interest held by the FDIC to be eliminated by foreclosure without the
FDIC's consent.
The Policy Statement states that the FDIC generally will not pay non ad valorem taxes,
including special assessments, on property in which it has a fee interest unless the amount of tax is
fixed at the time that the FDIC acquires its fee interest in the property, nor will it recognize the
validity of any lien to the extent it purports to secure the payment of any such amounts. Special taxes
imposed under the Act and a special tax formula which determines the special tax due each year, are
specifically identified in the Policy Statement as being imposed each year and therefore covered by
the FDIC's federal immunity.
The Community Facilities District is unable to predict what effect the FDIC's application of
the Policy Statement would have in the event of a delinquency on a parcel within the Community
Facilities District in which the FDIC has an interest, although prohibiting the lien of the FDIC to be
foreclosed at a judicial foreclosure sale would reduce or eliminate the persons willing to purchase a
parcel at a foreclosure sale. Owners of the Series 2007 Bonds should assume that the Community
Facilities District will be unable to foreclose on any parcel owned by the FDIC. As of July 31, 2007,
no property in the Community Facilities District was owned by the FDIC.
Exempt Properties
Certain properties are exempt from the Special Taxes in accordance with the Rate and
Method (see Appendix B-"Rate and Method of Apportionment of Special Tax"). In addition, the
Act provides that properties or entities of the federal, State or local government are exempt from the
Special Tax; provided, however, that property within the Community Facilities District acquired by a
public entity through a negotiated transaction or by gift or devise, which is not otherwise exempt
from the Special Tax, will continue to be subject to the Special Tax. Property acquired by a public
entity following a tax sale or foreclosure based upon failure to pay taxes may become exempt from
the Special Tax. In addition, .although the Act provides that if property subject to the Special Tax is
acquired by a public entity through eminent domain proceedings, the obligation to pay the Special
Tax with respect to that property is to be treated as if it were a special assessment. The
constitutionality and operation of these provisions of the Act have not been tested. If additional
property is dedicated to the City or other public entities, this additional property might become
exempt from the Special Tax.
The Act further provides that no other properties or entities are exempt from the Special Tax
unless the properties or entities are expressly exempted in a resolution of consideration to levy a new
special tax or to alter the rate and method of apportionment of an existing special tax.
OHS WEST:260269009.2 33
Cumulative Burden of Parity Taxes, Special Assessments
The Special Taxes constitute a lien against the parcels of land on which they have been
levied. Such lien is on a parity with all special taxes levied by other agencies and is co-equal to and
independent of the lien for general property taxes, regardless of when they are imposed upon the
same property.
The Community Facilities District does not have control over the ability of other entities to
issue indebtedness secured by ad valorem taxes, special taxes or assessments payable from all or a
portion of the property within the Community Facilities District. In addition, the owners of property
within the Community Facilities District may, without the consent or knowledge of the Community
Facilities District, petition other public agencies to issue public indebtedness secured by ad valorem
taxes,. special taxes or assessments. Any such special taxes may have a lien on such property on a
parity with the lien of the Special Taxes. See "SECURITY FOR THE SERIES 2007 BONDS -
Direct and Overlapping Debt."
Additional and Overlapping Debt
The property in the Community Facilities District is subject to direct and overlapping tax and
assessment debt as set forth herein under the caption "SECURITY FOR THE SERIES 2007 BONDS
Direct and Overlapping Debt." The Developer and any subsequent owners of the property in the
Community Facilities District subject to the Special Tax are required to pay the Special Taxes and
any and all annual special assessments and general property tax levies. The Community Facilities
District has no control over the amount of additional indebtedness that maybe issued by other public
agencies, the payment of which, through the levy of a tax or an assessment, is on a parity with the
Special Taxes. See "- Cumulative Burden of Parity Taxes, Special Assessments" and "SECURITY
FOR THE SERIES 2007 BONDS -Direct and Overlapping Debt." A decrease in the property value
in the Community Facilities District or an increase in the parity liens on property in the Community
Facilities District, or both, could reduce the ability or willingness of the Developer to pay the Special
Taxes on the property in the Community Facilities District.
Limitations on Remedies
Remedies available to the Owners may be limited by a variety of factors and may be
inadequate to assure the timely payment of principal of and interest on the Series 2007 Bonds or to
preserve the tax-exempt status of the Series 2007 Bonds.
Bond Counsel has limited its opinion as to the enforceability of the Series 2007 Bonds, and of
the Indenture to the extent that enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, fraudulent conveyance or transfer, moratorium, or others similar laws affecting
generally the enforcement of creditor's rights, by equitable principles, by the exercise of judicial
discretion and by limitations on remedies against public agencies in the State of California.
Additionally, the Series 2007 Bonds are not subject to acceleration in the event of the breach of any
covenant or duty under the Indenture. The lack of availability of certain remedies or the limitation of
remedies may entail risks of delay, limitation or modification of the rights of the Owners.
Right to Vote on Taxes Act
On November 5, 1996, the voters of the State approved Proposition 218, the so-called "Right
to Vote on Taxes Act." Proposition 218 added Articles XIIIC ("Article XIIIC") and XIIID to the
OHS WEST:260269009.2 34
State Constitution, which contain a number of provisions affecting the ability of local agencies to
levy and collect both existing and future taxes, assessments, fees and charges.
Among other things, Section 3 of Article XIII states that "... the initiative power shall not be
prohibited or otherwise limited in matters of reducing or repealing any local tax, assessment, fee or
charge." The Act provides for a procedure, which includes notice, hearing, protest and voting
requirements to alter the rate and method of apportionment of an existing special tax. However, the
Act prohibits a legislative body from adopting any resolution to reduce the rate of any special tax or
terminate the levy of any special tax pledged to repay any debt incurred pursuant to the Act unless
such legislative body determines that the reduction or termination of the special tax would not
interfere with the timely retirement of that debt. Accordingly, although the matter is not free from
doubt, it is likely that Article XIIIC has not conferred on the .voters the power to repeal or reduce the
Special Taxes if such reduction would interfere with the timely retirement of the Series 2007 Bonds.
It may be possible, however, for voters or the Community Facilities District to reduce the
Special Taxes in a manner which does not interfere with the timely repayment of the Series 2007
Bonds, but which does reduce the maximum amount of Special Taxes that maybe levied in any year
below the existing levels. Therefore, no assurance can be given with respect to the levy of Special
Taxes for Administrative Expenses. Furthermore, no assurance can be given with respect to the
future levy of the Special Taxes in amounts greater than the amount necessary for the timely
retirement of the Series 2007 Bonds.
The interpretation and application of Article XIIIC will ultimately be determined by the
courts with respect to a number of the matters discussed above, and it is not possible at this time to
predict with certainty the outcome of such determination or the timeliness of any remedy afforded by
the courts. See "SPECIAL RISK FACTORS -Limitations on Remedies."
Loss of Tax Exemption
As discussed under the caption "CONCLUDING INFORMATION -Tax Exemption,"
interest on the Series 2007 Bonds could become includable in gross income for purposes of federal
income taxation retroactive to the date the Series 2007 Bonds were issued, as a result of acts or
omissions of the Community. Facilities District in violation of the Code. Should such an event of
taxability occur, the Series 2007 Bonds are not subject to redemption and will remain Outstanding
until maturity or until redeemed under the optional redemption or mandatory redemption provisions
of the Indenture.
Limited Liquidity of the Series 2007 Bonds
The Community Facilities District has not applied for, and does not expect to receive, a
rating on the Series 2007 Bonds from any nationally recognized rating organization. This fact,
coupled with the fact that the Series 2007 Bonds are secured by Special Taxes payable by one
landowner, may limit the secondary market for, and therefore the liquidity of, the Series 2007 Bonds.
LITIGATION
At the time of delivery of and payment for the Series 2007 Bonds, the Community Facilities
District will certify that there is no action, suit, litigation, inquiry or investigation before or by any
court, governmental agency, public board or body served, or to the best knowledge of the
OHS WEST:260269009.2 35
Community Facilities District threatened, against the Community Facilities District in any material
respect affecting the existence of the Community Facilities District or the titles of its officers to their
respective offices or seeking to prohibit, restrain or enjoin the sale, execution or delivery of the
Series 2007 Bonds or challenging directly or indirectly the proceedings to levy the Special Taxes or
issue the Series 2007 Bonds.

2007 Bonds to provide certain financial information and operating data relating to the Series 2007
Bonds, the Community Facilities District, ownership of the property in the Community Facilities

CONCLUDING INFORMATION
Legal Opinions
The validity of the Series 2007 Bonds and certain other legal matters are subject to the
approving opinion of Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe LLP, Bond Counsel. Orrick, Herrington &
Sutcliffe LLP is acting as disclosure counsel in connection with the Series 2007 Bonds. Bond
Counsel undertakes no responsibility for the accuracy, completeness or fairness of this Official
Statement and Bond Counsel expresses no opinion as to the matters set forth herein. A complete
copy of the proposed form of Bond Counsel opinion is contained in Appendix C hereto and will
accompany the Series 2007 Bonds. Certain legal matters will be passed upon for the Underwriter by
Ballard Spahr Andrews & Ingersoll, LLP, ,and for the City and the Community
Facilities District by Woodruff, Spradlin & Smart, A Professional Corporation, Orange, California.
Financial Interest
Payment of the fees and expenses of Bond Counsel and Underwriter's counsel is contingent
upon the issuance and delivery of the Series 2007 Bonds. From time to time, Orrick, Herrington &
Sutcliffe LLP represents Banc of America Securities LLC on matters unrelated to the Series 2007
Bonds.
Tax Exemption
In the opinion of Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe LLP, as bond counsel to the Community
Facilities District ("Bond Counsel"), based upon an analysis of existing laws, regulations, rulings and
court decisions, and assuming, among other matters, the accuracy of certain representations and
compliance with certain covenants, interest on the Series 2007 Bonds is excluded from gross income
for federal income tax purposes under Section 103 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the
"Code") and is exempt from State of California personal income taxes. Bond Counsel is of the
further opinion that interest on the Series 2007 Bonds is not a specific preference item for purposes
of the federal individual or corporate alternative minimum taxes, although Bond Counsel observes
that such interest is included in adjusted current earnings when calculating corporate alternative
minimum taxable income. A complete copy of the proposed form of opinion of Bond Counsel is
included herein as Appendix C.
To the extent the issue price of any maturity of the Series 2007 Bonds is less than the amount
to be paid at maturity of such Bonds (excluding amounts stated to be interest and payable at least
annually over the term of such Bonds), the difference constitutes "original issue discount," the
accrual of which, to the extent properly allocable to each beneficial owner thereof, is treated as
interest on the Series 2007 Bonds which is excluded from gross income for federal income tax
purposes and State of California personal income taxes. For this purpose, the issue price of a
particular maturity of the Series 2007 Bonds is the first price at which a substantial amount of such
maturity of the Series 2007 Bonds is sold to the public (excluding bond houses, brokers, or similar
persons or organizations acting in the capacity of underwriters, placement agents or wholesalers).
The original issue discount with respect to any maturity of the Series 2007 Bonds accrues daily over
the term to maturity of such Bonds on the basis of a constant interest rate compounded semiannually
(with straight-line interpolations between compounding dates). The accruing original issue discount
is added to the adjusted basis of such Bonds to determine taxable gain or loss upon disposition
(including sale, redemption, or payment on maturity) of such Bonds. Beneficial owners of the Series
OHS WEST:260269009.2 37
2007 Bonds should consult their own tax advisors with respect to the tax consequences of ownership
of Series 2007 Bonds with original issue discount, including the treatment of beneficial owners who
do not purchase such Bonds in the original offering to the public at the first price at which a
substantial amount of such Bonds is sold to the public.
Series 2007 Bonds purchased, whether at original issuance or otherwise, for an amount
higher than their principal amount payable at maturity (or, in some cases, at their earlier call date)
("Premium Bonds") will be treated as having amortizable bond premium. No deduction is allowable
for the amortizable bond premium in the case of bonds, like the Premium Bonds, the interest on
which is excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes. However, the amount of tax-
exempt interest received, and a beneficial owner's basis in a Premium Bond, will be reduced by the
amount of amortizable bond premium properly allocable to such beneficial owner. Beneficial
owners of Premium Bonds should consult their own tax advisors with respect to the proper treatment
of amortizable bond premium in their particular circumstances.
The Code imposes various restrictions, conditions and requirements relating to the exclusion
from gross income for federal tax purposes of interest on obligations such as the Series 2007 Bonds.
The Community Facilities District has made representations and covenanted to comply with certain
restrictions, conditions and requirements designed to ensure that interest on the Series 2007 Bonds
will not be included in federal gross income. Inaccuracy of these representations or failure to comply
with these covenants may result in interest on the Series 2007 Bonds being included in gross income
for federal income tax purposes, possibly from the date of issuance of the Series 2007 Bonds. The
opinion of Bond Counsel assumes the accuracy of these representations and compliance with these
covenants. Bond Counsel has not undertaken to determine (or to inform any person) whether any
actions taken (or not taken) or events occurring (or not occurring); or any other matters coming to
Bond Counsel's attention, after the date of issuance of the Series 2007 Bonds may adversely affect
the value of, or the tax status of interest on, the Series 2007 Bonds.
Although Bond Counsel is of the opinion that interest on the Series 2007 Bonds is excluded
from gross income for federal income tax purposes and is exempt from State of California personal
income taxes, the ownership or disposition of the Series 2007 Bonds, or the accrual or receipt of
interest on the Series 2007 Bonds, may otherwise affect a beneficial owner's federal, state or local
tax liability. The nature and extent of these other tax consequences will depend upon the particular
tax status of the beneficial owner or the beneficial owner's other items of income or deduction. Bond
Counsel expresses no opinion regarding any such other tax consequences.
Future legislative proposals, if enacted into law, clarification of the Code or court decisions
may cause interest on the Series 2007 Bonds to be subject, directly or indirectly, to federal income
taxation or to be subject to or exempted from state income taxation, or otherwise prevent Beneficial
Owners from realizing the full current benefit of the tax status of such interest. As one example, on
May 21, 2007, the United States Supreme Court agreed to hear an appeal from a Kentucky state court
which ruled that the United States Constitution prohibited the state from providing a tax exemption
for interest on bonds issued by the state and its political subdivisions but taxing interest on
obligations issued by other states and their political subdivisions. The introduction or enactment of
any such future legislative proposals, clarification of the Code or court decisions may also affect the
market price for, or marketability of, the Series 2007 Bonds. Prospective purchasers of the Series
2007 Bonds should consult their own tax advisors regarding any pending or proposed federal or state
tax legislation, regulations or litigation, as to which Bond Counsel expresses no opinion.
OHS WEST:260269009.2 3 $
The opinion of Bond Counsel is based on current legal authority, covers certain matters not
directly addressed by such authorities, and represents Bond Counsel's judgment as to the proper
treatment of the Series 2007 Bonds for federal income tax purposes. It is not binding on the Internal
Revenue Service ("IRS") or the courts. Furthermore, Bond Counsel cannot give and has not given
any opinion or assurance about the future activities of the Community Facilities District, or about the
effect of future changes in the Code, the applicable regulations, the interpretation thereof or the
enforcement thereof by the IRS. The Community Facilities District has covenanted, however, to
comply with the requirements of the Code.
Bond Counsel's engagement with respect to the Bonds ends with the issuance of the Bonds,
and, unless separately engaged, Bond Counsel is not obligated to defend the Community Facilities
District or the beneficial owners regarding the tax-exempt status of the Series 2007 Bonds in the
event of an audit examination by the IRS. Under current procedures, parties other than the
Community Facilities District and its appointed counsel, including the beneficial owners, would have
little, if any, right to participate in the audit examination process. Moreover, because achieving
judicial review in connection with an audit examination oftax-exempt bonds is difficult, obtaining an
independent review of IRS positions with which the Community Facilities District legitimately
disagrees, may not be practicable. Any action of the IRS, including but not limited to selection of the
Series 2007 Bonds for audit, or the course or result of such audit, or an audit of bonds presenting
similar tax issues may affect the market price for, or the marketability of, the Series 2007 Bonds, and
may cause the Community Facilities District or the beneficial owners to incur significant expense.
Underwriting
The Series 2007 Bonds are being purchased by Banc of America Securities LLC (the
"Underwriter"). .Pursuant to a Bond Purchase Agreement between the Underwriter and the
Community Facilities District (the "Purchase Agreement"), the Underwriter has agreed to purchase
all of the Series 2007 Bonds for an aggregate purchase price of $ ,subject to certain
conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement. The purchase price reflects an underwriter's
discount of $ and [net original issue discountlpremium of $ ~. The initial
offering prices stated on the cover of this Official Statement may be changed from time to time by
the Underwriter. The Underwriter may offer and sell the Series 2007 Bonds to certain dealers
(including dealers depositing Series 2007 Bonds into investment trusts), dealer banks, banks acting as
agent and others at prices lower than said public offering prices.
No Ratings
The City has not made, and does not contemplate making, any application to any rating
agency for the assignment of a rating to the Series 2007 Bonds.

~ecial Tax Bonds, Series 2007
(Final Opinion)
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We have acted as bond counsel to the City of Tustin Community Facilities District No. 07-1
(Tustin Legacy/Retail Center) (the "Community Facilities District") in connection with the issuance
by the Community Facilities District of its Special Tax Bonds, Series 2007 (the "Series 2007
Bonds"), in the aggregate principal amount of $ ,pursuant to the provisions of the Mello-
Roos Community Facilities Act of 1982 (being Sections 53311 et seq. of the California Government
Code) and an Indenture, dated as of 1, 2007 (the "Indenture"), by and between the
Community Facilities District and Union Bank of California, N.A., as trustee (the "Trustee").
Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the
Indenture.
In such connection, we have reviewed the Indenture, the Tax Certificate of the Community
Facilities District, dated the date hereof (the "Tax Certificate"), opinions of counsel to the
Community Facilities District and the Trustee, certificates of the Community Facilities District, the
Trustee and others and such other documents, opinions and matters to the extent we deemed
necessary to render the opinions set forth herein.
The opinions expressed herein are based on an analysis of existing laws, regulations, rulings
and court decisions and cover certain matters not directly addressed by such authorities. Such
opinions may be affected by actions taken or omitted or events occurring after the date hereof. We
have not undertaken to determine, or to inform any person, whether any such actions are taken or
omitted or events do occur or any other matters come to our attention after the date hereof.
Accordingly, this opinion is not intended to, and may not, be relied upon in connection with any such
actions, events or matters. Our engagement with respect to the Series 2007 Bonds has concluded
OHS WEST:260269009.2 C-1
with their issuance, and we disclaim any obligation to update this letter. We have assumed the
genuineness of all documents and signatures presented to us (whether as originals or as copies) and
the due and legal execution and delivery thereof by, and validity against, any parties other than the
Community Facilities District. We have assumed, without undertaking to verify, the accuracy of the
factual matters represented, warranted or certified in the documents referred to in the second
paragraph hereof. Furthermore, we have assumed compliance with all covenants and agreements
contained in the Indenture and the Tax Certificate, including, without limitation, covenants and
agreements compliance with which is necessary to assure that future actions, omissions or events will
not cause the interest on the Series 2007 Bonds to be included in gross income for federal income tax
purposes. In addition, we call attention to the fact that the rights and obligations under the Series
2007 Bonds, the Indenture and the Tax Certificate and their enforceability may be subject to
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, fraudulent conveyance, moratorium and other
laws relating to or affecting creditors' rights, to the application of equitable principles, to the exercise
of judicial discretion in appropriate cases, and to the limitations on legal remedies against
governmental entities such as the Community Facilities District in the State of California. We
express no opinion with respect to any indemnification, contribution, penalty, choice of law, choice
of forum, choice of venue, waiver or severability provisions contained in the foregoing documents,
nor do we express any opinion with respect to the plans, specifications, maps, reports or other
engineering. or financial details of the proceedings, or upon the Rate and Method or the validity of the
Special Tax levied upon any individual parcel. Finally, we undertake no responsibility for the
accuracy, completeness or fairness of the Official Statement or other offering material relating to the
Series 2007 Bonds and express no opinion with respect thereto.
Based on and subject to the foregoing, and in reliance thereon, as of the date hereof, we are
of the following opinions:
1. The Series 2007 Bonds constitute valid and binding special obligations of the
Community Facilities District, payable solely from Net Special Tax Revenues and other assets
pledged therefor under the Indenture.
2. The Indenture has been duly executed and delivered by, and constitutes a valid and
binding obligation of, the Community Facilities District.
3. Interest on the Series 2007 Bonds is excluded from gross income for federal income
tax purposes under Section 103 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 and is exempt from State of
California personal income taxes. Such interest is not a specific preference item for purposes of the
federal individual or corporate alternative minimum taxes, although we observe that it is included in
adjusted current earnings when calculating corporate alternative minimum taxable income. We
express no opinion regarding other tax consequences related to the ownership or disposition of, or the
accrual or receipt of interest on, the Series 2007 Bonds.

BOOK-ENTRY ONLY SYSTEM
The following description of the procedures and record-keeping with respect to beneficial
ownership interests in the Series 2007 Bonds, payment of principal, interest and other payments on
the Series 2007 Bonds to DTC Participants or Beneficial Owners, confirmation and transfer of
beneficial ownership interests in such Series 2007 Bonds, other related transactions by and between
DTC, the DTC Participants and the Beneficial Owners is based solely on information provided by
DTC. Accordingly, no representations can be made concerning these matters and neither the DTC
Participants nor the Beneficial Owners should rely on the following information with respect to such
matters, but should instead confirm the same with DTC or the DTC Participants, as the case may be.
DTC will act as securities depository for the Series 2007 Bonds. The Series 2007 Bonds will
be issued as fully-registered securities registered in the name of Cede & Co. (DTC's partnership
nominee) or such other name as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. One
fully-registered bond certificate for each maturity of the Series 2007 Bonds will be issued for the
Series 2007 Bonds in the aggregate principal amount of such maturity, and will be deposited with
DTC.
DTC, the world's largest depository, is alimited-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 2 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 its participants ("Direct Participants")
deposit with DTC. DTC also facilitates 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, in turn, is owned by a number of Direct Participants of DTC and Members of the National
Securities Clearing Corporation, Fixed Income Clearing Corporation and Emerging Markets Clearing
Corporation (NSCC, FICC and EMCC, also subsidiaries of DTCC), as well as by the New York
Stock Exchange, Inc., the American Stock Exchange, LLC, and the National Association of
Securities Dealers, Inc. Access to the DTC system is also available to others such as both U.S. and
non-U.S. securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies and clearing corporations that clear
through or maintain a custodial relationship with a Direct Participant, either directly or indirectly
("Indirect Participants"). DTC has Standard & Poor's highest rating: AAA. The DTC Rules
applicable to DTC and 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 the Series 2007 Bonds under the DTC system must be made by or through
Direct Participants, which will receive a credit for the Series 2007 Bonds on DTC's records. The
ownership interest of each actual purchaser of each Series 2007 Bond ("Beneficial Owner") is in turn
to be recorded on the Direct and Indirect Participants' records. Beneficial Owners will not receive
OHS WEST:260269009.2 F-1
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 2007 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 2007 Bonds is
discontinued.
To facilitate subsequent transfers, all Series 2007 Bonds deposited by Direct Participants
with DTC are registered in the name of DTC's partnership nominee, Cede & Co., or such other name
as maybe requested by an authorized representative of DTC. The deposit of Series 2007 Bonds with
DTC and their registration in the name of Cede & Co. do not effect any change in beneficial
ownership. DTC has no knowledge of the actual Beneficial Owners of the Series 2007 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 maybe in effect from time to time.
Redemption notices shall be sent to Cede & Co. If less than all of the Series 2007 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 such other DTC nominee) will consent or vote with
respect to the Series 2007 Bonds unless authorized by a Direct Participant in accordance with DTC's
procedures. Under its usual procedures, DTC mails an Omnibus Proxy to the issuer of securities
registered to Cede & Co. as soon as possible after the record date. The Omnibus Proxy assigns Cede
& Co.'s consenting or voting rights to those Direct Participants to whose accounts the Series 2007
Bonds are credited on the record date (identified in a listing attached to the Omnibus Proxy).
Principal, premium, if any, and interest payments with respect to the Series 2007 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 Community Facilities District on a payable date in
accordance with their respective holdings shown on DTC 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 each Participant and not of DTC or its nominee, the Trustee, or the
Community Facilities District, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as maybe in effect
from time to time. Payment of principal and interest to Cede & Co. (or such other nominee as may
be requested by an authorized representative of DTC) is the responsibility of the Trustee,
disbursement of such payments to Direct Participants shall be the responsibility of DTC, and
disbursement of such payments to the Beneficial Owners shall be the responsibility of Direct and
Indirect Participants.
OHS WEST:260269009.2 F-2
DTC may discontinue providing its services as securities depository with respect to the
Bonds at any time by giving reasonable notice to the Trustee. Under such circumstances, in the event
that a successor securities depository is not obtained, bond certificates are required to be printed and
delivered.
NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, THE TRUSTEE, AS LONG AS A BOOK-
ENTRY-ONLY SYSTEM IS USED FOR THE SERIES 2007 BONDS, WILL SEND ANY NOTICE
OF REDEMPTION OR OTHER NOTICES ONLY TO CEDE & CO., OR ITS SUCCESSOR AS
DTC'S PARTNERSHIP NOMINEE. ANY FAILURE OF CEDE & CO., OR ITS SUCCESSOR AS
DTC' S PARTNERSHIP NOMINEE TO ADVISE ANY PARTICIPANT, OR OF ANY
PARTICIPANT TO NOTIFY ANY BENEFICIAL OWNER OF ANY NOTICE AND ITS
CONTENT OR EFFECT WILL NOT AFFECT THE VALIDITY OR SUFFICIENCY OF THE
PROCEEDINGS RELATING TO THE REDEMPTION OF THE SERIES 2007 BONDS CALLED
FOR REDEMPTION OR OF ANY OTHER ACTION PREMISED ON SUCH NOTICE.

before the Bonds so signed or attested shall have been authenticated or delivered by the Trustee,
or issued by the Community Facilities District, such Bonds may nevertheless be authenticated,
delivered and issued and, upon such authentication, delivery and issue, shall be as binding upon
the Community Facilities District as though those who signed and attested the same had

without coupons and may contain such reference to any of the provisions of this Indenture as
may be appropriate. Every temporary Bond shall be executed by the Community Facilities
District and authenticated by the Trustee upon the same conditions and in substantially the same
manner as the definitive Bonds. If the Community Facilities District issues temporary Bonds of
a Series it shall 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 and maturities in authorized denominations. Until so exchanged, the temporary

canceled by it and delivered to, or upon the order of, the Community Facilities District. 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 Community Facilities District, 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 Community Facilities District 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
Community Facilities District 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 Community Facilities
District 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 2.09. Book-Entry Bonds. (a) Prior to the issuance of a Series of Bonds, the
Community Facilities District 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 2007
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 DTC and the Book-Entry Bonds shall be registered in the name of
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 payment date for the Book-Entry Bonds 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 Community Facilities District may treat DTC (or its
nominee) as the sole and exclusive Owner of the Book-Entry Bonds registered in its name for the
purposes of payment of the principal, premium, if any, or interest with respect to the Book-Entry
Bonds, selecting the 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 Community Facilities District shall be affected by any notice to the contrary. Neither the
Trustee nor the Community Facilities District shall have any responsibility or obligation to any
Participant, any person claiming a beneficial ownership interest in the 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,
OHS West:260258353.2 1 S
premium, if any, or interest with respect to the 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
the 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 the
Book-Entry Bonds, only to DTC, and all such payments shall be valid and effective to fully
satisfy and discharge the Community Facilities District'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 Community Facilities District determines that the incumbent securities depository shall
no longer so act, and delivers a written certificate to the Trustee to that effect, then the
Community Facilities District will discontinue the book-entry system with the incumbent
securities depository for such Series of Bonds. If the Community Facilities District determines
to replace the incumbent securities depository for such Series of Bonds with another qualified
securities depository, the Community Facilities District 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 Community Facilities District, 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 Community Facilities District 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 Community Facilities District 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 2.03, 2.07 and 2.08. All such Bonds of such Series shall be in
fully registered form in denominations authorized by this Indenture.
(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.
(e) In connection with any notice or other communication to be provided to Owners
of Book-Entry Bonds pursuant to this Indenture by the Community Facilities District or the
Trustee with respect to any consent or other action to be taken by Owners, the Community
OHS West:260258353.2 16
Facilities District 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.

require that such Bonds be then surrendered at the 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. Neither the failure to receive any notice so mailed, nor any
defect in such notice, shall 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. With
respect to any notice of any optional redemption of Bonds of a Series, unless at the time such
notice is given the Bonds to be redeemed shall be deemed to have been paid as provided in
Section 10.02, such notice shall state that such redemption is conditional upon receipt by the
Trustee, on or prior to the date fixed for such redemption, of moneys that, together with other
available amounts held by the Trustee, are sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of, and accrued
interest on, the Bonds to be redeemed, and that if such moneys shall not have been so received
said notice shall be of no force and effect and the Community Facilities District shall not be
required to redeem such Bonds. In the event a notice of redemption of Bonds contains such a
condition and such moneys are not so received, the redemption of Bonds as described in the
conditional notice of redemption shall not be made and the Trustee shall, within a reasonable
time after the date on which such redemption was to occur, give notice to the Persons and in the
manner in which the notice of redemption was given, that such moneys were not so received and
that there shall be no redemption of Bonds pursuant to such notice of redemption.
Section 4.03. Selection of Bonds for Redemption. Whenever provision is made in this
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 Community Facilities District, (b) with respect to any redemption
pursuant to Section 4.01(b) 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 shall deem appropriate and fair. For
purposes of such selection, all Bonds shall be deemed to be comprised of separate $5,000
denominations and such separate denominations shall be treated as separate Bonds which may be
separately redeemed.
Section 4.04. Partial Redemption of Bonds. Upon surrender of any Bonds redeemed
in part only, the Community Facilities District shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate
and deliver to the Owner thereof, at the expense of the Community Facilities District, 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.
OHS West:260258353.2 24
Section 4.05. 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 shall become .due and
payable on said date, and, upon presentation and surrender thereof at the Office of the Trustee,
said Bonds shall 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, shall be held by the Trustee so as to be available
therefor on such date, and, if notice of redemption thereof shall have been mailed as aforesaid and
not canceled, then, from and after said date, interest on said Bonds shall cease to accrue and become
payable. All moneys held by or on behalf of the Trustee for the redemption of Bonds shall 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 hereof
shall be canceled upon surrender thereof and destroyed.

application thereof for the purposes and on the terms and conditions set forth herein, all of the
Net Special Tax Revenues and any other amounts (including proceeds of the sale of the Bonds)
held in the Special Tax Fund, the Bond Fund and the Reserve Fund are hereby pledged to secure
the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds in accordance with
their terms, the provisions of this Indenture and the Act. Said pledge shall constitute a first lien
on such assets.
Section 5.02. Special Tax Fund. The Trustee shall establish and maintain a separate
fund designated the "Special Tax Fund." As soon as practicable after the receipt by the
Community Facilities District of any Special Tax Revenues, but in any event no later than the
date ten Business Days prior to the Interest Payment Date after such receipt, the Community
Facilities District shall transfer such Special Tax Revenues to the Trustee for deposit in the
Special Tax Fund; provided, however, that any portion of any such Special Tax Revenues that
represents prepaid Special Taxes that are to be applied to the payment of the Redemption Price
of Bonds in accordance with the provisions hereof shall be identified to the Trustee as such by
the Community Facilities District and shall be deposited in the Redemption Fund.
Upon receipt of a Written Request of the Community Facilities District, the Trustee shall
withdraw from the Special Tax Fund and transfer to the Administrative Expense Fund the amount

be transferred thereto in order to have sufficient amounts available therein to pay Administrative
Expenses.
On the Business Day immediately preceding each Interest Payment Date, after having
made any requested transfer to the Administrative Expense Fund, the Trustee shall withdraw
from the Special Tax Fund and transfer, first, to the Bond Fund, Net Special Tax Revenues in the
amount, if any, necessary to cause the amount on deposit in the Bond Fund to be equal to the
principal and interest due on the Bonds on such Interest Payment Date, and, second, to the
Reserve Fund, Net Special Tax Revenues in the amount, if any, necessary to cause the amount
on deposit in the Reserve Fund to be equal to the Reserve Requirement.
Section 5.03. Bond Fund. The Trustee shall establish and maintain a separate fund
designated the "Bond Fund." On the Closing Date, the Trustee shall deposit in the Bond Fund
the amount required to be deposited therein pursuant to Section 3.02. The Trustee shall deposit in

Section 5.02. There shall additionally be deposited in the Bond Fund the portion, if any, of the
proceeds of the sale of Additional Bonds required to be deposited therein under the Supplemental
Indenture pursuant to which such Additional Bonds are issued.
On each Interest Payment Date, the Trustee shall withdraw from the Bond Fund for
payment to the Owners of the Bonds the principal, if any, of and interest on the Bonds then due
OHS West:260258353.2 26
and payable, including principal due and payable by reason of mandatory sinking fund
redemption of such Bonds.
In the event that, on the Business Day prior to an Interest Payment Date, amounts in the
Bond Fund are insufficient to pay the principal, if any, of and interest on the Bonds due and payable
on such Interest Payment Date, including principal due and payable by reason of mandatory sinking
fund redemption of such Bonds, the Trustee shall withdraw from the Reserve Fund, to the extent of
any funds therein, the amount of such insufficiency, and shall transfer any amounts so withdrawn to
the Bond Fund.
Section 5.04. Redemption Fund. The Trustee shall establish and maintain a special
fund designated the "Redemption Fund." As soon as practicable after the receipt by the
Community Facilities District of prepaid Special Taxes, but in any event not later than ten
Business Days after such receipt, the Community Facilities District shall transfer such prepaid
Special Taxes to the Trustee for deposit in the Redemption Fund. Additionally, the Trustee shall
deposit in the Redemption Fund amounts received from the Community Facilities District in
connection with the Community Facilities District's exercise of its rights to optionally redeem
Series 2007 Bonds pursuant to Section 4.01(a) and any other amounts required to be deposited
therein pursuant to Section 5.05 or pursuant to any Supplemental Indenture.
Amounts in the Redemption Fund shall be disbursed therefrom for the payment of the
Redemption Price of Series 2007 Bonds redeemed pursuant to Section 4.01(a) or Section 4.01(b)
and to pay the Redemption Price of Additional Bonds redeemed under the Supplemental Indenture
pursuant to which such Additional Bonds are issued.
Section 5.05. Reserve Fund. The Trustee shall establish and maintain a special fund
designated the "Reserve Fund." On the Closing Date, the Trustee shall deposit in the Reserve
Fund the amount required to be deposited therein pursuant to Section 3.02. The Trustee shall
deposit in the Reserve Fund from time to time the amounts required to be deposited therein
pursuant to Section 5.02. There shall additionally be deposited in the Reserve Fund, in
connection with the issuance of Additional Bonds, the amount required to be deposited therein
under the Supplemental Indenture pursuant to which such Additional Bonds are issued.
Except as otherwise provided in this Section, all amounts deposited in the Reserve Fund
shall be used and withdrawn by the Trustee solely for the purpose of making transfers to the Bond
Fund in the event of any deficiency at any time in the Bond Fund of the amount then required for
payment of the principal of and interest on the Bonds or, in accordance with the provisions of this
Section, for the purpose of paying or redeeming Bonds. Transfers shall be made from the Reserve
Fund to the Bond Fund in the event of a deficiency in the Bond Fund, in accordance with Section
5.03.
Whenever Bonds are to be redeemed pursuant to Section 4.01(a) or Section 4.01(b) or the
corresponding provisions of a Supplemental Indenture, a proportionate share, determined as
provided below, of the amount on deposit in the Reserve Fund shall, on the date on which
amounts to redeem such Bonds are deposited in the Redemption Fund or otherwise deposited
with the Trustee pursuant to Section 10.02, be transferred by the Trustee from the Reserve Fund
to the Redemption Fund or to such deposit held by the Trustee and shall be applied to the
OHS West:260258353.2 27
redemption of said Bonds; provided, however, that such amount shall be so transferred only if
and to the extent that the amount remaining on deposit in the Reserve Fund will be at least equal
to the Reserve Requirement (excluding from the calculation thereof said Bonds to be redeemed).
Such proportionate share shall be equal to the largest integral multiple of $5,000 that is not larger
than the amount equal to the product of (a) the amount on deposit in the Reserve Fund on the
date of such transfer, times (b) a fraction, the numerator of which is the principal amount of
Bonds to be so redeemed and the denominator of which is the principal amount of Bonds to be
Outstanding on the day prior to the date on which such Bonds are to be so redeemed.
Whenever the balance in the Reserve Fund exceeds the amount required to redeem or pay
the Outstanding Bonds, including interest accrued to the date of payment or redemption and
premium, if any, due upon redemption, the Trustee shall, upon receipt of a Written Request of the
Community Facilities District, transfer the amount in the Reserve Fund to the Bond Fund or
Redemption Fund, as applicable, to be applied, on the next succeeding Interest Payment Date to the
payment and redemption of all of the Outstanding Bonds.
If, as a result of the scheduled payment of principal of or interest on the Bonds, the
Reserve Requirement is reduced, the Trustee shall transfer an amount equal to the amount of
such reduction to the Bond Fund.
Section 5.06. Rebate Fund. (a) The Trustee shall establish and maintain a special fund
designated the "Rebate Fund." There shall be deposited in the Rebate Fund such amounts as are
required to be deposited therein pursuant to the Tax Certificate, as specified in a Written Request
of the Community Facilities District. All money at any time deposited in the Rebate Fund shall
be held by the Trustee in trust, to the extent required to satisfy the Rebate Requirement, for
payment to the United States of America. Notwithstanding defeasance of the Bonds pursuant to
Article X hereof or anything to the contrary contained herein, all amounts required to be
deposited into or on deposit in the Rebate Fund shall be governed exclusively by this Section and
by the Tax Certificate (which is incorporated herein by reference). The Trustee shall be deemed
conclusively to have complied with such provisions if it follows the written directions of the
Community Facilities District, and shall have no liability or responsibility to enforce compliance
by the Community Facilities District with the terms of the Tax Certificate. The Trustee may
conclusively rely upon the Community Facilities District's determinations, calculations and
certifications required by the Tax Certificate. The Trustee shall have no responsibility to
independently make any calculation or determination or to review the Community Facilities
District's calculations.
(b) Any funds remaining in the Rebate Fund after payment in full of all of the Bonds

Trustee from time to time to pay the Administrative Expenses upon submission of a Written
Request of the Community Facilities District stating (a) the Person to whom payment is to be made,
(b) the amount to be paid, (c) the purpose for which the obligation was incurred and that such
purpose constitutes an Administrative Expense, (d) that such payment is a proper charge against the
Administrative Expense Fund, and (e) that such amounts have not been the subject of a prior
disbursement from the Administrative Expense Fund; in each case together with a statement or
invoice for each amount requested thereunder.
Section 5.08. Investment of Moneys. Except as otherwise provided herein, all moneys
in any of the funds or accounts established pursuant to this Indenture and held by the Trustee
shall be invested by the Trustee solely in Permitted Investments, as directed in writing by the
Community Facilities District two Business Days prior to the making of such investment.
Moneys in all funds and accounts held by the Trustee shall be invested in Permitted Investments
maturing not later than the date on which it is estimated that such moneys will be required for the
purposes specified in this Indenture; provided, however, that Permitted Investments in which
moneys in the Reserve Fund are so invested shall mature no later than the earlier of five years
from the date of investment or the final maturity date of the Bonds; provided, further, that if such
Permitted Investments may be redeemed at par so as to be available on each Interest Payment
Date, any amount in the Reserve Fund may be invested in such redeemable Permitted
Investments maturing on any date on or prior to the final maturity date of the Bonds. Absent
timely written direction from the Community Facilities District, the Trustee shall invest any
funds held by it in Permitted Investments described in clause (h) of the definition thereof;
provided, however, that ar~y such investment shall be made with due regard for the Trustee's
obligations and responsibilities as a fiduciary hereunder.

the Reserve Fund) shall be retained therein. Subject to the provisions of Section 5.06, all interest,
profits or other income received from the investment of moneys in the Reserve Fund shall, prior to
the date on which a Written Certificate of the Community Facilities District is delivered to the
Trustee pursuant to Section 3.04(c), be transferred to the Improvement Fund and, thereafter, shall be
deposited in the Bond Fund; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, any such
transfer shall be made only if and to the extent that, after such transfer, the amount on deposit in the
Reserve Fund is at least equal to the Reserve Requirement.
Permitted Investments acquired as an investment of moneys in any fund or account
established under this Indenture shall be credited to such fund or account. For the purpose of
determining the amount in any fund or account, all Permitted Investments credited to such fund
shall be valued by the Trustee at the market value thereof, such valuation to be performed not less
frequently than semiannually on or before each February 15 and August 15. The Trustee may
utilize and rely upon securities pricing services available to it for such valuations, including those
available through the Trustee's accounting system.
The Trustee may act as principal or agent in the making or disposing of any investment.
Upon the Written Request of the Community Facilities District, the Trustee shall sell or present for
redemption any Permitted Investments so purchased whenever it shall be necessary to provide
OHS West:260258353.2 29
moneys to meet any required payment, transfer, withdrawal or disbursement from the fund to which
such Permitted Investments is credited, and the Trustee shall not be liable or responsible for any loss
resulting from any investment made or sold pursuant to this Section. For purposes of investment,
the Trustee may commingle moneys in any of the funds and accounts established hereunder. The
Community Facilities District acknowledges that to the extent regulations of the Comptroller of the
Currency or other applicable regulatory entity grant the Community Facilities District the right to
receive brokerage confirmations of security transactions as they occur, the Community Facilities
District specifically waives receipt of such confirmations to the extent permitted by law. The
Trustee will furnish the Community Facilities District periodic cash transaction statements which
include detail for all investment transactions made by the Trustee hereunder.

COVENANTS
Section 6.01. Collection of Special Tax Revenues. The Community Facilities District
shall comply with all requirements of the Act so as to assure the timely collection of Special Tax
Revenues, including without limitation, the enforcement of delinquent Special Taxes.
Prior to August 1 of each year, the Community Facilities District shall ascertain from the
Orange County Assessor the relevant parcels on which the Special Taxes are to be levied, taking
into account any parcel splits during the preceding and then current year. The Community Facilities
District shall effect the levy of the Special Taxes each Fiscal Year in accordance with the Ordinance
by each August 10 that the Bonds are Outstanding, or otherwise such that the computation of the
levy is complete before the final date on which the Auditor will accept the transmission of the
Special Tax amounts for the parcels within the Community Facilities District for inclusion on the
next real property tax roll. Upon the completion of the computation of the amounts of the levy, the
Community Facilities District shall prepare or cause to be prepared, and shall transmit to the
Auditor, such data as the Auditor requires to include the levy of the Special Taxes on the next real
property tax roll.
The Community Facilities District shall fix and levy the amount of Special Taxes within the
Community Facilities District in each Fiscal Year in accordance with the Rate and Method and,
subject to the limitations in the Rate and Method as to the maximum Special Tax that may be
levied, in an amount sufficient to yield Special Tax Revenues in the amount required for (a) the
payment of principal of and interest on any Outstanding Bonds becoming due and payable during
the Bond Year commencing in such Fiscal Year, (b) any necessary replenishment of the Reserve
Fund, and (c) the payment of Administrative Expenses estimated to be required to be paid from
such Special Tax Revenues, taking into account the balances in the funds and accounts established
hereunder.
The Special Taxes shall be payable and be collected in the same manner and at the same
time and in the same installment as the general taxes on real property are payable, and have the
same priority, become delinquent at the same time and in the same proportionate amounts and bear
the same proportionate penalties and interest after delinquency as do the ad valorem taxes on real
property.
Section 6.02. Foreclosure. Pursuant to Section 53356.1 of the Act, the Community
Facilities District hereby covenants with and for the benefit of the Owners of the Bonds that it
will determine or cause to be determined, no later than August 15 of each year, whether or not
any owners of property within the Community Facilities District are delinquent in the payment of
Special Taxes and, if such delinquencies exist, the Community Facilities District will order and
cause to be commenced no later than October 1, and thereafter diligently prosecute, an action in
the superior court to foreclose the lien of any Special Taxes or installment thereof not paid when
due; provided, however, that the Community Facilities District shall not be required to order the
commencement of foreclosure proceedings if (a) the total Special Tax delinquency in the
Community Facilities District for such Fiscal Year is less than 5% of the total Special Tax levied
in such Fiscal Year, and (b) the amount then on deposit in the Reserve Fund is equal to the
OHS West:260258353.2 31
Reserve Requirement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Community Facilities District
determines that any single property owner in the Community Facilities District is delinquent in
excess of [$5,000] in the payment of the Special Tax, then the Community Facilities District will
diligently institute, prosecute and pursue foreclosure proceedings against such property owner.
Section 6.03. Punctual Payment. The Community Facilities District shall punctually
pay or cause to be paid the principal, premium, if any, and interest to become due in respect of
all the, Bonds, in strict conformity with the terms of the Bonds and of this Indenture, according to
the true intent and meaning thereof, but only out of Net Special Tax Revenues and other assets
pledged for such payment as provided in this Indenture and received by the Community
Facilities District or the Trustee.
Section 6.04. Extension of Payment of Bonds. The Community Facilities District shall
not directly or indirectly extend or assent to the extension of the maturity of any of the Bonds or
the time of payment of any claims for interest by the purchase of such Bonds or by any other
arrangement, and in case the maturity of any of the Bonds or the time of payment of any such
claims for interest shall be extended, such Bonds or claims for interest shall not be entitled, in
case of any default hereunder, to the benefits of this Indenture, except subject to the prior
payment in full of the principal of all of the Bonds then Outstanding and of all claims for interest
thereon which shall not have been so extended. Nothing in this Section shall be deemed to limit
the right of the Community Facilities District to issue Bonds for the purpose of refunding any
Outstanding Bonds, and such issuance shall not be deemed to constitute an extension of maturity
of the Bonds.
Section 6.05. Against Encumbrances. The Community Facilities District shall not
create, or permit the creation of, any pledge, lien, charge or other encumbrance upon the Special
Tax Revenues and other assets pledged under this Indenture while any of the Bonds are
Outstanding, except as permitted by this Indenture.
Section 6.06. Power to Issue Bonds and Make Pledge. The Community Facilities
District is duly authorized pursuant to the Act to issue the Bonds and to enter into this Indenture
and to pledge the Net Special Tax Revenues and other assets pledged under this Indenture in the
manner and to the extent provided in this Indenture. The Bonds and the provisions of this
Indenture are and will be the legal, valid and binding special obligations of the Community
Facilities District in accordance with their terms, and the Community Facilities District and the
Trustee (subject to the provisions of Article VIII) shall at all times, to the extent permitted by
law, defend, preserve and protect said pledge of Net Special Tax Revenues and other assets and
all the rights of the Owners under this Indenture against all claims and demands of all Persons
whomsoever.

times keep, or cause to be kept, proper books of record and account, prepared in accordance with

funds and accounts established by it pursuant to this Indenture. Such books of record and
account shall be available for inspection by the Community Facilities District, during regular
business hours and upon reasonable notice and under reasonable circumstances as agreed to by

the Trustee. The Trustee shall deliver to the Community Facilities District a monthly accounting

not be obligated to deliver an accounting for any fund or account that (a) has a balance of zero,
and (b) has not had any activity since the last reporting date.
Section 6.08. Tax Covenants. (a) The Community Facilities District shall not take any
action, or fail to take any action, if such action or failure to take such action would adversely

the Code. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Community Facilities District
shall comply with the requirements of the Tax Certificate, which is incorporated herein as if fully
set forth herein. This covenant shall survive payment in full or defeasance of the Series 2007
Bonds.
(b) In the event that at any time the Community Facilities District is of the opinion that
for purposes of this Section it is necessary or helpful to restrict or limit the yield on the investment
of any moneys held by the Trustee in any of the funds or accounts established hereunder, the
Community Facilities District shall so instruct the Trustee in writing, and the Trustee shall take such
action as may be necessary in accordance with such instructions.
(c) Notwithstanding any provisions of this Section, if the Community Facilities District
shall provide to the Trustee an opinion of Bond Counsel to the effect that any specified action
required under this Section is no longer required or that some further or different action is required
to maintain the exclusion from federal income tax of interest on the Series 2007 Bonds, the Trustee
may conclusively rely on such opinion in complying with the requirements of this Section and of
the Tax Certificate, and the covenants hereunder shall be deemed to be modified to that extent.
Section 6.09. Continuing Disclosure. The Community Facilities District and the
Trustee shall comply with and carry out all of the provisions of the District Continuing
Disclosure Agreement. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, failure of the
Community Facilities District or the Trustee to comply with the District Continuing Disclosure
Agreement shall not be considered an Event of Default; provided, however, that the Trustee may

aggregate principal amount of Outstanding Series 2007 Bonds, and upon indemnification of the
Trustee to its reasonable satisfaction, shall) or any holder or beneficial owner of the Series 2007

including seeking mandate or specific performance by court order.
The Developer and the Trustee have entered into the Developer Continuing Disclosure
Agreement. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, failure of the Developer or
the Trustee to comply with the Developer Continuing Disclosure Agreement shall not be
considered an Event of Default; provided, however, that the Trustee may (and, at the written
direction of any Participating Underwriter or the holders of at least 25% aggregate principal
amount of Outstanding Series 2007 Bonds, and upon indemnification of the Trustee to its
reasonable satisfaction, shall) or any holder or beneficial owner of the Series 2007 Bonds may,

District shall not authorize owners of taxable parcels within the Community Facilities District to

principal of and interest on all Outstanding Bonds when due.
