CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT Agenda Item No. 24 September 8, 2009 TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL FROM: Administrative Services Department Dennis C. Danner, Administrative Services Director (949) 644 -3123 or DDanner(o-newportbeachca.gov Dan Matusiewicz, Finance Officer (949) 644 -3126 or DanM(a)newportbeachca.gov SUBJECT: Sale of Bonds for Assessment District 103 ISSUE: Should the City Council adopt a resolution reducing assessments to reflect the deletion of capitalized interest and finalize the amount of the unpaid assessments for Assessment District 103 and authorize a second resolution to authorize the attached documents necessary to sell bonds for the remaining unpaid assessments related to Assessment District 103? RECOMMENDATION: 1) Adopt a change proceedings resolution: a) Reducing the assessment to reflect the deletion of capitalized interest; and b) Determining remaining unpaid assessments. 2) Adopt the bond issuance resolution: a) Authorizing the sale of 1915 Act Assessment bonds not to exceed $3,429,200 for Assessment District 103; b) Authorizing the execution and delivery of an Indenture in substantially the form presented; c) Approving the form of a Preliminary Official Statement and authorizing the execution and delivery of a final Official Statement; d) Authorizing the execution and delivery of a Disclosure Dissemination Agent Agreement in substantially the form presented; e) Authorizing the execution and delivery of a Bond Purchase Contract in substantially the form presented; and f) Authorizing Staff to take the necessary steps to provide for the sale and issuance of the bonds. Sale of Bonds for Assessment District 103 September 8, 2009 Page 2 DISCUSSION: Background The purpose of Assessment District 103 is to finance the removal and undergrounding of overhead utilities (electricity, telephone and cable TV) in the area generally bounded by G Street, E. Balboa Boulevard, Channel Road and Ocean Boulevard. As is the case with other similar Assessment Districts within the City, residents petition the City to assist with the formation, design, construction and financing of the improvement project. Residents were able to certify sufficient resident interest in the project and City Council authorized the City to advance the funds necessary to perform the necessary design and engineering work in order to determine the estimated cost and feasibility of the project. City Council accepted the Preliminary Engineer's Report and adopted a Resolution of Intent in order to form the. assessment district on June 9, 2009. A public hearing date of July 28, 2009 was set and residents were notified of the public hearing on June 12, 2009 to provide the minimum 45 -day notice. A public information meeting was held on June 30, 2009 where residents were able to ask questions of staff, utility company representatives, the assessment engineer and bond counsel. On July 28, 2009 public testimony was heard during the public hearing and property owners cast their ballots, 53% in favor of proceeding with the improvement project. In deference to the property owner vote, City Council adopted Resolution No. 2009 -56 approving the Final Engineer's Report, levying assessments and authorizing the project to proceed. The total amount of assessments levied on parcels within Assessment District 103 recorded in the official records of the Orange County Recorder on July 30, 2009, totaled $6,220,752. Authorize Resolution to Reduce Assessments Removal of Capitalized Interest: Staff recommends that Council order, by resolution, a reduction of assessments levied on July 30, 2009 by $357,693 representing 5.75% of capitalized interest that will not be necessary since the City, collaborating with the County, will be able to place the unpaid assessments on the 2009 -10 tax roll on September 9, 2009 (substantially past the County's normal levy placement deadline). The levy addition will provide the funds necessary to pay all debt service on the bonds of the assessment district coming due on March 2 and September 2, 2010. With the removal of the capitalized interest, the revised amount of assessments total $5,863,059. Sale of Bonds for Assessment District 103 September 8, 2009 Page 3 Determine Paid Assessments: On July 29, 2009 a thirty-day cash collection period was opened to afford property owners the opportunity to self - finance any portion or all of their assessment at a 13% discount since certain prepaid financing costs could otherwise be avoided if bond financing was not required as follows: Bond Reserve 6.00% Capitalized Interest 5.75% Underwriter's Discount 1.25% Total 13.00% When the Cash Collection period closed on Monday, August 31, 2009, cash payments totaling $2,246,718 were received, representing 42% of the discounted value of the assessments. The sum of the cash payments, together with the assumed financing cost previously included in the total assessment, $187,094, result in a further reduction of assessments totaling $2,433,812. Authorize Resolution to Sell Bonds for Remaining Unpaid Assessments After the expiration of the cash collection period on August 31, 2009, staff has certified to City Council that the remaining unpaid assessments total $3,429,247. Under the provision of the Improvement Bond Act of 1915, the City is empowered to provide for the issuance, sale and delivery of limited obligation improvement bonds in the principal amount equal to the amount of the unpaid assessments of $3,429,200 (rounded to the nearest $100). In order to finance the unpaid assessments, staff recommends that Council adopt a resolution: a) Authorizing the sale of 1915 Act Assessment bonds not to exceed $3,429,200 for Assessment District 103 to complete the funding of the undergrounding project, to fund a reserve fund and to pay incidental costs of the Assessment District proceedings and the costs of issuance for the bonds; and b) Authorizing the execution and delivery of an Indenture in substantially the form presented which sets forth the terms and provisions of which the Bonds are to be issued and administered; and c) Approving the form of a Preliminary Official Statement and authorizing the execution and delivery of a final Official Statement describing the Bonds, the Assessment District, the undergrounding project and related matters; and Sale of Bonds for Assessment District 103 September 8, 2009 Page 4 d) Authorizing the execution and delivery of a Disclosure Dissemination Agent Agreement in substantially the form presented for the purpose of making undertakings to provide certain annual financial information and notice of certain prescribed events, if deemed material, as required for compliance with Rule 15c2 -12 of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission; and e) Authorizing the execution and delivery of a Bond Purchase Contract in substantially the form presented under the terms of which, among other things, the City agrees to sell and the bonds and the underwriter agrees to purchase the Bonds; and f) Authorizing staff to take the necessary steps to provide for the sale and issuance of the bonds. Selection of Underwriter, Manner of Sale, Rating & Financing Schedule Requests for proposals were sent out to three qualified underwriters. Proposals were reviewed in consultation with our financial advisors, Fieldman Rolapp and Associates. Southwest Securities was selected based on their knowledge and experience with land secured financing, past performances in delivering good pricing in similar deals and the lowest quoted underwriter's discount (approximately 89 basis points). Due to the credit quality of this assessment district and the Newport Beach name, there is a good chance that the district can achieve an "A" Rating from Standard & Poor's. If so, Southwest Securities believes this rating may reduce the interest cost by 25 basis points which will achieve a net present value savings to the property owners approaching $47,500. For this reason, the City may pursue a rating on behalf of the district but if for any reason an "A" rating cannot be achieved, the bonds will be sold as an unrated issue. Although the underwriter's fee has been determined, the pricing of the bonds will ultimately determine the true interest cost to the property owner. The bonds will be priced and negotiated just prior to the bond sale, again with the assistance of our financial advisors. The City has the final say whether or not the bonds can or will be sold on pricing day. The Preliminary Official Statement will be electronically distributed shortly after a rating is determined in approximately 10 days and bonds will be priced, sold and closed by mid October.

RECITALS. a. By proceedings duly had and taken, this City Council (this "Council ") of the City of Newport Beach (the "City ") has provided for (a) the formation of its Assessment District No. 103 (G Street/East Balboa Boulevard/Channel Road/Ocean Boulevard) (the "Assessment District"), under and pursuant to the provisions of the Municipal Improvement Act of 1913 (Division 12 of the California Streets and Highways Code) (the "1913 Act "), and (b) the issuance of limited obligation improvement bonds (the "Bonds ") under and pursuant to the provisions of the Improvement Bond Act of 1915 (Division 10 of said Streets and Highways Code; hereafter the "1915 Act "). b. On July 28, 2009, this Council adopted its resolution approving the Final Engineer's Report, dated July 28, 2009, as identified in said resolution (the "Final Engineer's Report"), among other things approving and ordering implementation of the undergrounding of the existing overhead utility facilities (the " Undergrounding Project ") located within the public rights -of -way and easements and within or adjacent to the Assessment District, and levying the assessments on the parcels determined to be specially benefited by the Undergrounding Project, in the amounts set forth in the Final Engineer's Report. C. Thereafter, on July 30, 2009, the Notice of Assessment and the assessment diagram for the Assessment District were recorded in the official records of the Orange County Recorder, and the individual assessments thereby became a lien upon the respective individual parcels upon which they had been levied. d. On July 31, 2009, a notice of assessment was mailed to the owner or owners of each parcel assessed, advising that all or any portion of each such assessment could be paid in cash, without interest and at a discount of thirteen percent (13 %) (representing avoided financing costs respecting bond discount, capitalized interest and bond reserve fund), with a deadline of August 31, 2009, for receipt of such cash payments at the office of the Finance Officer of the City (the "Finance Officer "). e. Based upon the completion of these steps, this Council is advised by the Finance Officer that the City will be able to post an installment on account of unpaid assessments on the 2009 -2010 property tax roll of the County of Orange, providing for payment of the debt service on the Bonds on March 2 and September 2, 2010, thereby making unnecessary the inclusion of capitalized interest in the amount of the assessments. f. This Council is authorized and by this resolution wishes to order a change of proceedings pursuant to Section 10352 of the 1913 Act, without notice to the property owners in the Assessment District or public hearing, to provide for the reduction of assessments to reflect deletion of the allowance for capitalized interest and thereby pass on to the property owners this savings. g. Following the close of the cash payment period on August 31, the Administrative Services Director of the City (the "Director "), in consultation with the Finance Officer, prepared and submitted to the City Clerk of the City (the "City Clerk ") a Certificate Respecting Paid and Unpaid Assessments, a copy of which certificate is attached to this resolution as Exhibit A and by this reference incorporated herein, certifying that the amount of unpaid assessments, as revised to reflect both the deletion of capitalized interest ordered by this resolution and the cash payments received from property owners wishing to prepay their respective assessments, in whole or in part, without interest, is $3,429,247. h. By this resolution, this Council wishes to establish said amount of unpaid assessments, rounded down to the nearest $100, as the principal amount of limited obligation improvement bonds to be authorized and issued in these proceedings upon the security of said unpaid assessments. SECTION 2. RECITALS TRUE AND CORRECT. The foregoing recitals are true and correct, and this Council so finds and determines. SECTION 3. REDUCTION OF UNPAID ASSESSMENTS. Pursuant to the provisions of Section 10352 of the 1913 Act, this Council hereby orders a reduction in the principal amount of each unpaid assessment equal to five and seventy -five one- hundredths percent (5.75 %) to pass on to the property owners the savings achieved by eliminating the need to capitalize interest payable on the Bonds on March 2 and September 2, 2010. Those property owners who prepaid, whether in whole or in part, their assessments during the cash payment period have already received this discount as part of the thirteen percent (13.0 %) discount applied to such cash payments. SECTION 4. DETERMINATION OF AMOUNT OF UNPAID ASSESSMENTS. This Council hereby finds and determines that, as set forth in the attached certificate, and there being no information to the contrary, the amount of assessments remaining unpaid in the Assessment District is the amount set forth in said certificate, namely $3,429,247, and by N separate resolution, this Council will authorize the issuance of the Bonds in said principal amount, rounded down to the nearest $100. SECTION 5. RECORDATION OF ADDENDUM TO NOTICE OF ASSESSMENT. The City Clerk is authorized and directed to cause the preparation and recording of an appropriate addendum to the notice of assessment which was recorded on July 30, 2009, to reflect (a) the discharge of lien respecting those parcels for which the assessment has been fully prepaid and discharged, (b) the reduced amount of the assessment for those parcels for which the assessment has been partially prepaid, and (c) the reduced amount of the remaining unpaid assessments as ordered by this resolution. SECTION 6. TRANSMITTAL TO COUNTY AUDITOR. The Clerk is hereby directed to transmit a certified copy of this resolution to the Orange County Auditor, and the Orange County Auditor is requested to proceed in accordance with Section 8682 of the California Streets and Highways Code in the collection of installments of principal, interest and administrative costs respecting these unpaid assessments on the secured property tax assessment roll of the County of Orange, commencing with the 2009 -2010 tax roll. SECTION 7. EFFECTIVE DATE OF RESOLUTION. This resolution shall take effect immediately upon its adoption. PASSED, APPROVED AND ADOPTED at a regular meeting of the City Council of the City of Newport Beach held on 8a' day of September, 2009, Mayor ATTEST: City Clerk EXHIBIT A CERTIFICATE RE PAID AND UNPAID ASSESSMENTS CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH ASSESSMENT DISTRICT NO. 103 (G STREET/EAST BALBOA BOULEVARD /CHANNEL ROAD /OCEAN BOULEVARD) I HEREBY CERTIFY that the attached list of Paid and Unpaid Assessments correctly reflects the following: (1) The total amount of assessments levied on parcels within Assessment District No. 103 (G StreetlEast Balboa Boulevard/Channel Road/Ocean Boulevard) (the "Assessment District") on July 28, 2009, and thereafter recorded in the official records of the Orange County Recorder on July 30, 2009, is $6,220,752.

(3) The total amount of cash payments received by the City from property owners on account of assessments levied in the Assessment District, prior to expiration of the cash payment period on August 31, 2009, as reported to me by the Finance Officer of the City, has resulted in a total reduction in the amount of unpaid assessments of $2,433,812 (when rounded to the nearest dollar). (4) After deducting the amount set forth in paragraph 3 above on account of cash payments received during the cash payment period, the amount of assessments remaining unpaid in the Assessment District is $3,429,247.

RECITALS. a. This City Council (this "Council ") of the City of Newport Beach (the "City "), by proceedings duly had and taken, previously provided for the formation of its Assessment District No. 103 (G Street/East Balboa Boulevard/Channel Road/Ocean Boulevard) (the "Assessment District "), under and pursuant to the provisions of the Municipal Improvement Act of 1913 (Division 12 of the California Streets and Highways Code), and indicated its intention to provide for the issuance of limited obligation improvement bonds under and pursuant to the provisions of the Improvement Bond Act of 1915 (Division 10 of said Streets and Highways Code; hereafter the "Act ") in a principal amount equal to the unpaid assessments of the Assessment District. b. On July 28, 2009, this Council adopted its resolution approving the Final Engineer's Report, as identified in said resolution (the "Final Engineer's Report"), and among other things approving and ordering implementation of the undergrounding of the existing overhead and ground -level utility facilities (the " Undergrounding Project") within the Assessment District, and levying the assessments on the parcels determined to be specially benefited by the Undergrounding Project, in the amounts set forth in the Final Engineer's Report. C. The assessment diagram and the Notice of Assessment respecting the Assessment District were thereafter recorded in the official records of the County Recorder of the County of Orange, thereby establishing liens upon the respective parcels upon which the individual assessments were levied to secure payment of said assessments as provided by the Act. d. The period of time within which property owners could, if they wished to do so, prepay all or any portion of the assessment levied upon the parcel or parcels owned by such property owners within the Assessment District expired on August 31, 2009, and the Administrative Services Director of the City has executed and submitted to this Council at its September 8 meeting a Certificate Respecting Paid and Unpaid Assessments, certifying to this Council that the amount of unpaid assessments is $3,429,247, and this Council, by separate resolution adopted this same date, has determined on the basis of said Certificate Respecting Paid and Unpaid Assessments, that the amount of unpaid assessments is $3,429,247. C. The City is empowered under the provisions of the Act to provide for the issuance, sale and delivery of limited obligation improvement bonds upon the security of the unpaid assessments and in a principal amount which as nearly as practicable is equal to the amount of the unpaid assessments. f. This Council wishes by this resolution to authorize the issuance of a series of bonds, under and pursuant to the Act, to be designated the "City of Newport Beach Assessment District No. 103 (G St/Bast Balboa Blvd/Channel Rd/Ocean Blvd) Limited Obligation Improvement Bonds (the "Bonds "), in a principal amount equal to the amount of the unpaid assessments, rounded down to the nearest $100, to complete the funding for the Undergrounding, to fund a reserve fund and to pay incidental costs of the Assessment District proceedings and the costs of issuance for the Bonds. g. The City has determined that all things necessary to make the Bonds, when authenticated and issued as provided in that certain Bond Indenture (the "Bond Indenture "), dated as of September 1, 2009, between the City and U.S. Bank National Association, as paying agent (the "Paying Agent "), the valid, binding and legal obligations of the City according to the import thereof and hereof have been done and performed. h. In furtherance of implementing the financing, there have been filed with the City Clerk and presented to this meeting for consideration and approval by this Council the following documents: (1) a Bond Indenture, under the terms and provisions of which the Bonds are to be issued and administered; (2) a Bond Purchase Contract, under the terms of which, among other things, the City agrees to sell and Southwest Securities, Inc. (the "Underwriter ") agrees to purchase the Bonds; (3) a Preliminary Official Statement, describing the Bonds, the Assessment District, the Undergrounding Project and related matters; and (4) a Disclosure Dissemination Agent Agreement for the purpose of making undertakings to provide certain annual financial information and notice of certain prescribed events, if deemed material, as required for compliance with Rule 15c2 -12 of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. i. Being fully advised in the matter of the financing, this Council wishes to proceed with implementation of said financing. SECTION 2. ISSUANCE OF BONDS AUTHORIZED. Pursuant to the Act, the Bonds shall be issued in the aggregate principal amount equal to the unpaid assessments, rounded down to the nearest $100; provided, however, that (a) the bond discount, consisting of the net amount of Underwriter's discount, less original issue discount, if any, plus original issue premium, if any, shall not exceed the amount set forth in the Final Engineer's Report, as adjusted to reflect the discounted cash payments made on account of assessments during the cash payment period, (b) the maximum net interest rate on any maturity shall not exceed 7.00 %, and (d) the last maturity shall not extend beyond the year 2024. The Bonds may be issued as either (1) traditional tax - exempt Bonds or (2) direct payment Build America Bonds ( "Direct Payment BABs "), to be structured and issued as authorized by and pursuant to the American Reinvestment and Recovery Act of 2009 (the "Recovery Act "), or any combination of the two, as shall be determined by the Finance Director of the City (the "Finance Director ") in consultation with the Underwriter to be in the best interest of the City. As used in the foregoing paragraph, the term "net interest rate" shall mean, with respect to Direct Payment BABs, if issued as authorized by this resolution, the interest rate payable to holders of the Bonds less the rate at which the direct payment to the City, as issuer of the Bonds, is determined. SECTION 3. FORM OF BOND INDENTURE APPROVED. The form and substance of the Bond Indenture is hereby approved.

C. The Underwriter is authorized to distribute said Preliminary Official Statement and the final Official Statement to be derived therefrom in connection with sale and delivery of the Bonds. SECTION 6. FORM OF DISCLOSURE DISSEMINATION AGENT AGREEMENT APPROVED. The form and substance of the Disclosure Dissemination Agent Agreement is hereby approved. The Administrative Services Director is hereby authorized and directed to execute and deliver the Disclosure Dissemination Agent Agreement on behalf of the City in substantially said form, with such changes as may be approved by the Administrative Services Director in consultation with Disclosure Counsel, such approval to be conclusively evidenced by such execution and delivery.

A certificate by the Paying Agent that notice of such redemption has been given as herein provided shall be conclusive as against all parties, and it shall not be open to any Bond owner to show that he or she failed to receive notice of such redemption.

SECTION 19. Creation of Funds. The Paying Agent and the City, as applicable, are hereby authorized and directed to establish the following funds for purposes of collecting assessment installments, making payment for the hereinafter designated costs and expenses and payment of principal and interest on the Bonds. The funds to be created are designated and subject to the terms as follows: (a) Redemption Fund: The Paying Agent is hereby authorized and directed to establish and maintain a Redemption Fund (the "Redemption Fund ") designated by the name of the Assessment District and to deposit therein from time to time (i) the amount of the proceeds of the Bonds which represents accrued and capitalized interest, if any, on the Bonds, (ii) all sums received from the City representing the collection of the assessments (other than assessments for administrative costs) and the interest thereon, and (iii) any surplus in the Improvement Fund to the extent as provided below. There shall be established by the Paying Agent a Prepayment Account as a subaccount within the Redemption Fund (the "Prepayment Account "). The Paying Agent shall not be required to establish the Prepayment Account until the time when deposits are required to be made therein. The City shall transfer to the Paying Agent for deposit in the Prepayment Account all monies received by the City representing the prepayment of the principal of, and interest and redemption premium on, any Bonds. Such monies shall be applied solely to the payment of the principal of, and interest and premium on, Bonds to be redeemed prior to maturity pursuant to the optional redemption provisions of Section 9 of this indenture. Except for money received with respect to assessment surcharges for administrative costs, the City shall transfer or cause to be transferred to the Paying Agent at least five days prior to each Interest Payment Date all sums received and not previously transferred from the collection of the assessments and any interest thereon and all sums received for the partial or full prepayment of assessments as required by Streets and Highways Code Section 8767. Any transfer representing the prepayment of assessments shall be accompanied by written instructions as to the disposition of such sums to redeem Bonds prior to maturity or to pay accrued interest on any Bonds to be redeemed. Principal of and interest on the Bonds shall be paid by the Paying Agent to the registered owners out of the Redemption Fund to the extent funds on deposit in said Redemption Fund are available therefor. In all respects not recited herein, said Bonds shall be governed by this Indenture or such other direction of the City to the Paying Agent in writing given in accordance with the provisions of the Act. The Paying Agent may conclusively rely upon any statement or certification of the City that any such direction is given by the City in accordance with the Act. Under no circumstances shall the Bonds or interest thereon be paid out of any other fund except as provided herein. (b) Reserve Fund: The City shall create and maintain a special reserve fund for the Bonds (the "Reserve Fund ") to be designated by the name of the Assessment District. Pursuant to Section 18 of this Indenture, the Reserve Fund shall be initially funded from a portion of the Bond proceeds in an amount equal to 6% of the original principal amount of the Bonds, representing the original "Reserve Requirement" (as said term is defined below). The City shall also deposit in the Reserve Fund funds which represent the proceeds of (i) payments made to redeem delinquent assessment installments or (ii) the judicial foreclosure sale of parcels pursuant to Section 22 below, in each case if and to the extent necessary to restore the amount on deposit to the Reserve Requirement following any advance having been made from the Reserve Fund to the Redemption Fund as a result of such delinquencies. Monies in the Reserve Fund shall be applied as follows: (1) Amounts in the Reserve Fund shall be transferred to the Paying Agent for deposit in the Redemption Fund if there are insufficient monies in said Redemption Fund to pay principal of and interest on the Bonds when due. Amounts so transferred shall be repaid to the Reserve Fund from proceeds from the redemption or foreclosure of property with respect to which an assessment is unpaid and from payments of the delinquent assessments. (2) Interest earned on the permitted investment of monies on deposit in the Reserve Fund shall remain in the Reserve Fund to the extent required to maintain the Reserve Fund at the Reserve Requirement. Not later than August 30 of each fiscal year, the amount on deposit in the Reserve Fund in excess of the Reserve Requirement shall be transferred from the Reserve Fund to the Redemption Fund and credited to the unpaid assessment installments payable during such fiscal year. "Reserve Requirement" shall mean the least of (i) the maximum annual debt service on the outstanding Bonds, (ii) 125% of the average annual debt service on the outstanding Bonds, or (iii) 6% of the original principal amount of Bonds (the "Reserve Requirement "). The City's records utilized to calculate the annual assessment installments on account of unpaid assessments shall reflect the credits against each of the unpaid assessments in amounts equal to each parcel's proportionate share of such transfer. Notwithstanding the above, interest earnings on monies on deposit in the Reserve Fund in excess of the "yield" on the Bonds, as that term is defined in the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the "Code "), shall be subject to transfer and rebate to the United States Treasury. (3) Whenever monies in the Reserve Fund, together with available funds in the Redemption Fund, are sufficient to fully and timely pay and redeem all outstanding Bonds, plus accrued interest thereon, the money shall be transferred to the Redemption Fund and collection of a corresponding amount of the remaining unpaid assessments shall cease. (4) In the event an assessment is prepaid in cash, the City shall credit the prepaid assessment with a proportionate share of the Reserve Fund and transfer an amount equal to such credit to the Redemption Fund to be utilized for the advance retirement of Bonds. (c) Improvement Fund: (1) General. The City shall create and maintain an improvement fund for the Assessment District (the "Improvement Fund ") to be designated by the name of the Assessment District. (2) Project Costs. The monies in the Improvement Fund, including the prescribed portion of proceeds of sale of the Bonds and the proceeds of assessment prepayments received by the City prior to issuance and sale of the Bonds, shall be used only for the payment of Project Costs as that term is defined hereinafter. "Project Costs" shall mean the costs of the conversion of certain overhead electrical and communication facilities to underground locations, together with appurtenances and appurtenant work in connection therewith (the "Improvements ") as authorized in the assessment proceedings concluded on July 28, 2009, and any subsequent proceedings, if any, taken by the City Council of the City pursuant to Sections 10350 and following, California Streets and Highways Code, and all incidental costs related thereto, including but not limited to the costs of issuing the Bonds, all as more particularly described in the Final Engineer's Report for the Assessment District, dated July 28, 2009, on file in the Office of the City Clerk of the City, as the Final Engineer's Report may be amended from time to time pursuant to the Municipal Improvement Act of 1913. The Treasurer of the City shall be responsible for the safekeeping and investment of the monies credited to the Improvement Fund. Investment earnings are allocated to the Improvement Fund in accordance with its proportionate share of equity in the City's pooled cash and investment portfolio. A negative balance in the Improvement Fund during any period will proportionally reduce the amount of future investment earnings attributable to the Improvement Fund. Investment earnings apportioned to the Improvement Fund shall be deemed at all times to be part of the Improvement Fund. Upon completion of the acquisition and construction of the Improvements, the Superintendent of Streets of the City shall file a certificate of completion (the "Certificate of Completion ") with the Treasurer. Any funds remaining in the Improvement Fund following receipt by the Treasurer of the Certificate of Completion shall constitute surplus ( "Surplus "), and in accordance with the provisions of Section 5 of Resolution No. 2009-36, the "Resolution of Intention" for the Assessment District, adopted by the City Council of the City on June 9, 2009, the Surplus shall be utilized or distributed in such manner as shall be determined by the City Council for any one or more of the purposes set forth in Section 5 of said Resolution of Intention. (d) Rebate Fund: The City shall establish and maintain a "Rebate Fund." Deposits shall be made to the Rebate Fund only as may be required by and in accordance with the provisions of the Tax Certificate pertaining to the Bonds. Amounts, if any, on deposit in the Rebate Fund shall be paid to the United States of America. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture, all earnings on amounts on deposit in the Rebate Fund shall remain therein until all amounts payable to the United States of America have been paid. SECTION 20. Investments. Obligations purchased as investments of monies in any of the funds in which investments are authorized shall be deemed at all times to be part of such funds. Subject to the restrictions set forth herein, monies in said funds may from time to time be invested by the Paying Agent, as to money in the Redemption Fund, at the written direction of the Treasurer of the City, which written direction shall contain a certification to the Paying Agent that such investments are Authorized Investments as defined in Exhibit D hereto. In the absence of written direction from the City, the Paying Agent shall invest the monies deposited in the Redemption Fund and any account of such fund in investments described in paragraph (vi) of Exhibit D. Such monies shall be invested only in obligations which will by their terns mature on such dates so as to ensure the payment of principal of and interest on the Bonds as the same become due; provided, investments of money in the Reserve Fund shall mature not later than five years from the date of purchase except such money may be invested in a repurchase agreement or an investment agreement without such five -year limitation so long as the repurchase agreement or investment agreement provides for withdrawals at par on or before any Interest Payment Date. The City and, if applicable, the Paying Agent shall sell at the best price reasonably obtainable or present for redemption any obligations so purchased whenever it may be necessary to do so in order to provide monies to meet any payment or transfer for such funds or from such funds. For the purpose of determining at any given time the balance in any such funds, any such investments constituting a part of such funds shall be valued at their market value. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Paying Agent shall not be responsible for any loss from any investments pursuant to this Indenture, except for its own negligence or willful misconduct. The Paying Agent may act as principal or agent in the acquisition or disposition of investments. The Paying Agent and the City may commingle the funds established hereunder for investment purposes, but shall nonetheless account for each separately. The Paying Agent is hereby authorized, in making or disposing of any investment permitted by this Section, to deal with itself (in its individual capacity) or with any one or more of its affiliates, whether it or such affiliate is acting as an agent of the Paying Agent or for any third person or dealing as principal for its own account. The City acknowledges that to the extent regulations of the Comptroller of the Currency or other applicable regulatory entity grant the City the right to receive brokerage confirmations of security transactions as they occur, the City specifically waives receipt of such confirmations to the extent permitted by law. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the Paying Agent will deliver confirmations to the City upon the written request of the City with respect to any specific transaction identified in the request. The Paying Agent will furnish the City periodic cash transaction statements that include details for all investment transactions made by the Paying Agent hereunder. SECTION 21. No City Liability. It is hereby further determined and declared that the City will not obligate itself to advance any available funds from its treasury to cure any deficiency or delinquency which may occur in the Redemption Fund by failure of property owners to pay annual special assessments. This determination shall be clearly stated in the title of the Bonds to be issued as authorized and required by Section 8769 of the Streets and Highways Code of the State of California. SECTION 22. Covenant for Superior Court Foreclosure. The City will review the public records of the County of Orange, California, in connection with the collection of the assessment installments not later than August 1 of each year to determine the amount of assessment installments collected in the prior fiscal year. If the City determines that any parcel or parcels are delinquent in the payment of assessment installments, then the City will cause judicial foreclosure proceedings to be filed in the superior court not later than December 1 of each year, and will prosecute diligently such foreclosure proceedings to judgment and judicial foreclosure sale; provided, however, the commencement of any foreclosure action may be deferred in the sole discretion of the City if, and only so long as, the amount in the Reserve Fund is not less than seventy percent (70 %) of the Reserve Requirement. Upon the redemption or sale of the real property responsible for any such delinquent assessment installment, the City will apply the net proceeds thereof to: (a) deposit to the Reserve Fund the amount of any delinquency advanced therefrom to the Redemption Fund for payment of interest on or principal of the Bonds, and (b) the balance, if any, will be disbursed as set forth in the judgment of foreclosure or as required by law. SECTION 23. Covenant to Maintain Tax - Exempt Status. The City covenants that it will not make any use of the proceeds of the Bonds issued hereunder which would cause the Bonds to become "arbitrage bonds" subject to federal income taxation pursuant to the provisions of Section 148(k) of the Code, or to become "federally- guaranteed obligations" pursuant to the provisions of Section 149(b) of the Code, or to become "private activity bonds" pursuant to the provisions of Section 141(a) of the Code. To that end, the City will comply with all applicable requirements of the Code and all regulations of the United States Department of Treasury issued thereunder to the extent such requirements are, at the time, applicable and in effect. Additionally, the City agrees to implement and follow each and every recommendation provided by bond counsel and deemed to be necessary to be undertaken by the City to ensure compliance with all applicable provisions of the Code in order to preserve the exclusion of interest on the Bonds from gross income for federal income tax purposes. SECTION 24. Order to Print and Authenticate Bonds. The Treasurer is hereby instructed to cause Bonds, in form substantially similar to Exhibit C attached hereto, to be prepared, and to proceed to cause said Bonds to be authenticated and delivered to an authorized representative of the Underwriter, upon payment of the purchase price as set forth in the accepted proposal for the sale of Bonds.

Disclosure Counsel, Bond Counsel, the Financial Adviser, the Underwriter and City staff have reviewed the documents and provided their input and continents in order that the documents comply with applicable securities laws requirements. The City Council's approval is currently scheduled for consideration at the September 8, 2009, City Council meeting. The Preliminary Official Statement discloses information with respect to among other things (i) the estimated sources and uses of funds, (ii) the facilities to be financed with proceeds of the Bonds, (iii) the Bonds (interest rate, redemption terms, etc.), (iv) the security for repayment of the Bonds (assessment installments, foreclosure covenants, etc.), (v) information regarding the Assessment District and the City, (vi) Bond Owners' risks, (vii) continuing disclosure requirements and (viii) various legal matters. At public conferences, Martha Haynes, the municipal securities chief of the Securities and Exchange Commission, reiterated the importance the SEC places on a review by elected officials of the relevant portions of Preliminary Official Statements and other key offering documents before issuing bonds. As an example, with respect to a City of San Diego matter, Ms. Haynes noted that elected officials and staff must read the offering documents. "It is not possible for issuers just to rely on lawyers and underwriters to handle this alone. Public officials have a different perspective and knowledge base than members of the financing team. It is critically important that members of the legislative body and other appropriate officials outside the financing team personally review disclosure documents and speak up if they have questions. Ten years after [the Commission published its report regarding the Orange County bankruptcy], it is not reasonable for issuer officials to expect the SEC and others to overlook such conduct." The securities laws require that (i) the Preliminary Official Statement not contain any misleading information and (ii) not omit any material information. While it is important that the City have its staff, Disclosure Counsel, and other consultants review and provide input regarding the Preliminary Official Statement, the Preliminary Official Statement is the City's document, and ultimate responsibility for the Preliminary and final Official Statements rests with the legislative body. While staff and the City's consultants have discussed a range of topics relating to the financing so that the securities laws requirements are met, there is the possibility that, as elected NIS POs COVER NEMORANDIJW,w d McFarlin & Anderson LLP City Council and City Staff City of Newport Beach September 1, 2009 Page 2 of 2 officials, you might be aware of something, or have a different perspective on something that should be considered and disclosed in the Preliminary Official Statement. Some of the questions City Council members and staff may ask, and may review the Preliminary Official Statement to be sure it discloses information concerning answers to those questions, include: Is there information about the Assessment District, the City, revenues, the project facilities or other matters that would be important for an investor to know before purchasing the Bonds? 2. Is there any pending or threatened litigation against the City or involving the Assessment District that could have a negative impact on the finances of either? 3. Are there any circumstances that exist or that are now unfolding that could affect assessment installment revenues or for that matter, even though not security for the Bonds and not directly material to the repayment of the Bonds, circumstances that could create budget difficulties for the City that are not described in the Preliminary Official Statement and that should be discussed before the Preliminary Official Statement is finalized? Since you have a different perspective and knowledge base than members of the financing team, it is important that you review the Preliminary Official Statement and that your input and questions be considered in finalizing the documents. Staff and the financing team are available to review and respond to questions and comments you may have with respect to information included in these documents. Please review, in particular, the sections of the Preliminary Official Statement captioned "THE FINANCING PLAN" and "THE DISTRICT" with a view as to whether all material information you are aware of is described accurately, whether anything you think might be important has been omitted, or whether there are risks that might have been omitted.

In the further opinion of Band Counsel, interest on the 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. Bond Counsel expresses no opinion regarding any other tax consequences related to the ownership or disposition of or the accrual or receipt of interest on, the Bonds.

H -1 -ii- SUMMARY STATEMENT Purpose Proceeds of the $3,429,200 principal amount of the City of Newport Beach Assessment District No. 103 (G Street/East Balboa Boulevard/Channel Road/Ocean Boulevard) Limited Obligation Improvement Bonds (the "Bonds "), together with certain investment earnings and certain other moneys, will be used to finance the costs of relocation of certain overhead electrical and communication facilities to underground locations, together with appurtenances and appurtenant work in connection therewith (the "Improvement Project "). See "THE DISTRICT — The Improvement Project" herein. Bond proceeds will also be used to establish a debt service reserve fund and to pay the costs of issuance of the Bonds. The District The City of Newport Beach Assessment District No. 103 ( "the District ") consists of approximately 26.5 acres located in Newport Beach, California (the "City "). The District is bordered by G Street, East Balboa Boulevard, Channel Road and Ocean Boulevard. The District was formed by the City on July 28, 2009. The amount of assessments levied in the District was $5,863,059, and prepayments have been made with respect to $2,433,812 of assessments. There are currently 218 parcels in the District with unpaid assessments in the amount of $3,429,247. Security for the Bonds The Bonds are issued upon and secured by a pledge of revenues received by the City in each Fiscal Year from the collection of annual installments of unpaid assessments, including penalties and interest and proceeds from the sale of property for delinquent assessments, on parcels within the District but excluding amounts collected by the City for the payment of administration costs ( "Assessment Revenues "). See "SECURITY FOR THE BONDS — Reserve Fund —No Additional Bonds Except for Refunding Bonds" herein. The unpaid assessments represent fixed liens on the assessed parcels. They do not, however, constitute a personal indebtedness of the owners of such parcels. Pursuant to the Improvement Bond Act of 1915, installments of principal of assessments and interest thereon sufficient to meet annual debt service on the Bonds will be billed by the County of Orange (the "County ") to owners of parcels within the District against which there are unpaid assessments (the "Assessment Installments "). Upon receipt by the Paying Agent from the City, these Assessment Installments are to be deposited into the Redemption Fund, which will be held by the Paying Agent and used to pay Bond principal and interest as they become due. The Assessment Installments billed against each parcel each Fiscal Year represent pro rata shares of the total principal and interest coming due in the ensuing calendar year, based on the percentage which the unpaid assessment against that parcel bears to the total of unpaid assessments levied to repay the Bonds. The City will deposit $ hnm Bond proceeds into a Reserve Fund (the "Reserve Fund "). The Reserve Fund will be a source of available funds to advance to the Redemption Fund in the event of delinquent installments. The City's obligation to advance funds to the Redemption Fund in the event of delinquent installments is limited to the balance in the Reserve Fund. Pursuant to the Indenture, the City has no obligation to replenish the Reserve Fund except to the extent that delinquent assessments are paid or proceeds from foreclosure sales are realized. See "SECURITY FOR THE BONDS — Reserve Fund." The City covenants with and for the benefit of the owners of the Bonds that it will commence judicial foreclosure proceedings against properties with delinquent Assessment Installments under certain circumstances. See "SECURITY FOR THE BONDS — Covenant for Superior Court Foreclosure." Redemption Any Bond or any portion of a Bond may be redeemed, in whole or in part, in increments of $5,000, in advance of maturity on any Interest Payment Date, commencing March 2, 2010, from any source of funds legally available, including, without limitation, the prepayment of assessments and surplus funds from the Improvement Fund, if any, together with accrued interest to the date of redemption at the redemption prices shown on the table under "TILE BONDS — Redemption — Optional Redemption " herein. Bond Owners' Risks Unpaid assessments do not constitute a personal indebtedness of the owners of the parcels within the District. There is no assurance that such owners will be able to pay the Assessment Installments or that they will pay such installments even though financially able to do so. Because the City has not obligated itself to advance funds to pay debt service on the Bonds in the event of delinquent Assessment Installments, failure by owners of the parcels to pay Assessment Installments when due, depletion of the Reserve Fund or the inability of the City to sell parcels which have been subject to foreclosure proceedings for amounts sufficient to cover the delinquent Assessment Installments levied against such parcels may result in the inability of the City to make full or punctual payments of debt service on the Bonds; and owners of the Bonds would therefore be adversely affected. See "BOND OWNERS' RISKS." $3,429,200 CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH ASSESSMENT DISTRICT NO. 103 (G STREET/EAST BALBOA BOULEVARD /CHANNEL ROAD /OCEAN BOULEVARD) LIMITED OBLIGATION IMPROVEMENT BONDS INTRODUCTION The purpose of this Official Statement, which includes the cover page and the appendices hereto, is to provide certain information concerning the City of Newport Beach Assessment District No. 103 (G Street/East Balboa Boulevard/Channel Road/Ocean Boulevard) Limited Obligation Improvement Bonds (the `Bonds ").

The City will transfer to the Paying Agent for deposit in the Prepayment Account all moneys received by the City representing the prepayment of the principal of, and interest and redemption premium on, any Bonds. Such moneys will be applied solely to the payment of the principal of, and interest and premium on, Bonds to be redeemed prior to maturity pursuant to the optional redemption provisions of the Indenture. Except for money received with respect to assessment surcharges for administrative costs, the City will transfer or cause to be transferred to the Paying Agent at least five days prior to each Interest Payment Date all sums received and not previously transferred from the collection of the assessments and any interest thereon and all sums received for the partial or full prepayment of assessments as required by Streets and Highways Code Section 8767. Any transfer representing the prepayment of assessments will be accompanied by written instructions as to the disposition of such sums to redeem Bonds prior to maturity or to pay accrued interest on any Bonds to be redeemed. Principal of and interest on the Bonds will be paid by the Paying Agent to the registered owners out of the Redemption Fund to the extent funds on deposit in the Redemption Fund are available therefor. Reserve Fund The City will create and maintain the Reserve Fund to be designated by the name of the District. The Reserve Fund will be initially funded from a portion of the Bond proceeds in an amount equal to 6% of the original principal amount of the Bonds. The City will also deposit in the Reserve Fund funds which represent the proceeds of (i) payments made to redeem delinquent Assessment hutallments or (ii) the judicial foreclosure sale of parcels pursuant the Indenture, in each case if and to the extent that any advance was made from the Reserve Fund to the Redemption Fund as a result of such delinquencies. Moneys in the Reserve Fund will be applied as follows: (1) Amounts in the Reserve Fund will be transferred to the Paying Agent for deposit in the Redemption Fund if there are insufficient moneys in said Redemption Fund to pay principal of and interest on the Bonds when due. Amounts so transferred will be repaid to the Reserve Fund from proceeds from the redemption or foreclosure of property with respect to which an assessment is unpaid and from payments of delinquent assessments. (2) Interest earned on the permitted investment of moneys on deposit in the Reserve Fund will remain in the Reserve Fund to the extent required to maintain the Reserve Fund at the Reserve Requirement (as defined herein). Not later than July 15 of each fiscal year, the amount on deposit in the Reserve Fund in excess of the Reserve Requirement will be transferred from the Reserve Fund to the Redemption Fund and credited to the unpaid Assessment Installments payable during such fiscal year. "Reserve Requirement' shall mean the least of (i) the maximum annual debt service on the outstanding Bonds, (ii) 125% of the average annual debt service on the outstanding Bonds or (iii) 6% of the original principal amount of Bonds (the "Reserve Requirement "). The City Auditor's records will reflect the credits against each of the unpaid assessments in amounts equal to each parcel's proportionate share of such transfer. Notwithstanding the above, interest earnings on moneys on deposit in the Reserve Fund in excess of the "yield" on the Bonds, as that term is defined in the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the "Code"), will be subject to transfer and rebate to the United States Treasury. (3) Whenever moneys in the Reserve Fund, together with available funds in the Redemption Fund, are sufficient to fully and timely pay and redeem all outstanding Bonds, plus accrued interest thereon, the money will be transferred to the Redemption Fund and collection of a corresponding amount of the remaining unpaid assessments will cease. (4) In the event an assessment is to be prepaid in cash, the City will credit the prepaid assessment with a proportionate share of the Reserve Fund and transfer an amount equal to such credit to the Redemption Fund to be utilized for the advance retirement of Bonds. Rebate Fund The City will establish and maintain a Rebate Fund (as defined in the Indenture). Deposits shall be made to the Rebate Fund only as may be required by and in accordance with the provisions of the Tax Certificate (as defined in the Indenture) pertaining to the Bonds. Amounts, if any, on deposit in the Rebate Fund will be paid to the United States of America. All earnings on amounts on deposit in the Rebate Fund will remain therein until all amounts payable to the United States of America have been paid. Investments Obligations purchased as investments of moneys in any of the funds in which investments are authorized will be deemed at all times to be part of such funds. Subject to the restrictions set forth in the Indenture, moneys in the Redemption Fund may from time to time be invested by the Paying Agent at the written direction of the Treasurer of the City, which written direction will contain a certification to the Paying Agent that such investments are Authorized Investments as defined in the Indenture. In the absence of written direction from the City, the Paying Agent will invest the moneys deposited in the Redemption Fund and any account of such funds in money market fimds as described in the Indenture. Such moneys will be invested only in obligations which will by their terms mature on such dates so as to ensure the payment of principal of and interest on the Bonds as the same become due; provided, investments of money in the Reserve Fund will mature not later than five years from the date of purchase except such money may be invested in a repurchase agreement or an investment agreement without such five -year limitation so long as the repurchase agreement or investment agreement provides for withdrawals at par on or before any Interest Payment Date. The City, and if applicable, the Paying Agent, will sell at the best price reasonably obtainable or present for redemption any obligations so purchased whenever it may be necessary to do so in order to provide moneys to meet any payment or transfer for such funds or from such fiords. For the purpose of determining at any given time the balance in any such funds, any such investments constituting a part of such funds will be valued at their market value. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Paying Agent will not be responsible for any loss from any investments pursuant to the Indenture, except for its own negligence or willful misconduct. The Paying Agent may act as principal or agent in the acquisition or disposition of investments. The Paying Agent and the City may commingle the funds established under the Indenture for investment purposes but will nonetheless account for each fund separately. Annual Debt Service Table 1 below sets forth the annual debt service on the Bonds based on the maturity schedule and interest rates set forth on the inside cover page of this Official Statement. TABLE 1 CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH ASSESSMENT DISTRICT NO. 103 (G STREET/EAST BALBOA BOULEVARD /CHANNEL ROAD /OCEAN BOULEVARD) LIMITED OBLIGATION IMPROVEMENT BONDS Year Ending September 2 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 2018 2019 2020 2021 2022 2023 2024 Totals General ANNUAL DEBT SERVICE Principal Interest Total SECURITY FOR THE BONDS The Bonds are issued upon and secured by a pledge of Assessment Revenues. The Bonds are secured by the moneys in the Redemption Fund and the Reserve Fund and any earnings thereon (except to the extent earnings must be transferred to the Rebate Fund under the Indenture) and by the unpaid assessments. Principal of and interest on the Bonds are payable exclusively out of the Redemption Fund. The payment of the amount of each Assessment Installment, interest and any penalties and collection costs is secured by an assessment lien upon the applicable property in the District. Such lien is co -equal with the latest lien thereon to secure the payment of general ad valorem property taxes, is not subject to extinguishment by the sale of any property on account of the non - payment of general property taxes, and is prior and superior to all Gees, claims, encumbrances and titles other than the liens of assessments, special taxes and general property taxes. Such lien is subordinate to all fixed special assessment liens previously imposed upon the same property but has priority over all private liens and over all fixed special assessment liens which may thereafter be created against the property. The Assessment Installments are pledged to secure the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds, and, as received by or otherwise credited to the City, will immediately be subject to the lien of such pledge. Although the unpaid assessments constitute liens upon the parcels assessed, they do not constitute a personal indebtedness of the owners of said parcels. There can be no assurance as to the financial or legal ability, or the willingness, of such property owners to pay the unpaid assessments. The failure of a property owner to pay an Assessment Installment will not result in an increase in Assessment Installments applicable to other parcels within the District. The unpaid assessments will be collected in semi - annual installments, together with interest on the declining balances, on the County tax roll on which general taxes on real property are collected, and the unpaid assessments are payable and become delinquent at the same time and in the same proportionate amounts and bear the same proportionate penalties and interest after delinquency as do general taxes, and the assessment parcels are subject to the same provisions for sale and redemption as are properties for nonpayment of general taxes. See also the section herein below entitled "Covenant for Superior Court Foreclosure." Reserve Fund The Reserve Fund will be a source of available funds to advance to the Redemption Fund in the event of delinquent Assessment Installments. See "THE BONDS — Reserve Fund" herein. The City's obligation to advance funds to the Redemption Fund in the event of delinquent Assessment Installments is limited to the balance in the Reserve Fund. Pursuant to the Indenture, the City has no obligation to replenish the Reserve Fund except to the extent that delinquent Assessment Installments are paid or proceeds from foreclosure sales are realized. However, the determination by the City not to obligate itself to advance available funds to cure delinquencies will not prevent the City from, in its sole discretion, advancing such funds. No Additional Bonds Except for Refunding Bonds. Except for refunding bonds, no additional bonds or other obligations will be issued or incurred that will be secured by or payable from the assessments of the District. Covenant for Superior Court Foreclosure The City has covenanted in certain circumstances to institute judicial foreclosure in the event of a delinquency and thereafter to prosecute diligently to completion court foreclosure proceedings upon the lien of any and all delinquent assessments and interest. Pursuant to Part 14 of Division 10 of the California Streets and Highways Code, as amended, in the event any Assessment Installment is not paid when due, the City may order the institution of a court action to foreclose the lien of the delinquent unpaid Assessment Installments. In such an action, the property subject to the unpaid Assessment Installments may be sold at judicial foreclosure sale. This foreclosure sale procedure is not mandatory. The City will review the public records of the County of Orange, California, in connection with the collection of the Assessment Installments not later than August 1 of each year to determine the amount of Assessment Installments collected in the prior Fiscal Year. If the City determines that any parcel or parcels are delinquent in the payment of Assessment Installments, then the City will cause judicial foreclosure proceedings to be filed in the superior court not later than December 1 of each year and will prosecute diligently such foreclosure proceedings to judgment and judicial foreclosure sale; provided, however, the commencement of any foreclosure action may be deferred in the sole discretion of the City if, and only so long as, the amount in the Reserve Fund is not less than seventy percent (70 1/6) of the Reserve Requirement. Judicial Foreclosure Proceedings. The 1915 Act provides that the court in a foreclosure proceeding has the power to order property securing delinquent Assessment Installments to be sold for an amount not less than all Assessment Installments, interest, penalties, costs, fees and other charges that are delinquent at the time the foreclosure action is ordered and certain other fees and amounts as provided therein (the "Minimum Price "). The court may also include subsequent delinquent Assessment Installments and all other delinquent amounts. The City may, at its discretion but is not required to, become the purchaser of any property sold in a foreclosure proceeding. If the City becomes the purchaser, it shall pay into the Redemption Fund an amount necessary to satisfy the judgment, less any advances by the City to cover delinquent Assessment Installments, plus simple interest on such net amount at the interest rates home by the Bonds, from the dates of delinquency. Unless such property is subsequently resold, the City must transfer to the Redemption Fund any future Assessment Installments pending redemption. The City may thereupon be reimbursed for any amount advanced from the City to the Redemption Fund to cover such future Assessment Installments with respect to the property so sold from the proceeds of such sale. If the property is sold to a purchaser other than the City, the City shall deposit the proceeds from the sale of the property into the Redemption Fund. From such amount, the City shall reimburse the Reserve Fund the amount, if any, of funds advanced from the Reserve Fund to the Redemption Fund to cover the delinquent Assessment Installments with respect to the property which is sold. After reimbursement of the Reserve Fund, the City may be reimbursed for any other amounts advanced from it to the Redemption Fund to cover delinquent Assessment Installments and interest with respect to the property sold in such proceedings. Any funds in excess of the amount necessary to reimburse the City may be applied by the City to pay interest and penalties, costs, fees and other charges, to the extent they were included in the sales proceeds. If the property to be sold fails to sell for the Minimum Price, the City may petition the court to modify the judgment so that the property may be sold at a lesser price or without a Minimum Price. Notice of the hearing on such petition must be given to all Bond Owners. In certain circumstances, the court may modify the judgment after the hearing to permit the sale of the property at a price lower than the Minimum Price if the court makes certain determinations, including determinations that the sale at less than the Minimum Price will not result in an ultimate loss to Bond Owners or that Bond Owners of at least 75% of the principal amount of Bonds outstanding have consented to the petition and certain other circumstances described in the statute exist. Neither the property owner nor any holder of a security interest in the property nor any defendant in the foreclosure action may purchase the property at the foreclosure sale for less than the Minimum Price. A period of 140 days must elapse after the date notice of levy of the interest in real property is served on the judgment debtor before the sale of such lot or parcet, with not more than 4 dwelling units, can be made. However, pursuant to Streets and Highways Code Section 8832, the 140 -day period may be shortened to 20 days for undeveloped property. If the judgment debtor fails to redeem, and if the purchaser at the sale is the judgment creditor (e.g., the City), an action may be commenced by the delinquent property owner within 90 days after the date of sale to set aside such sale. The constitutionality of the repeal of the one year redemption period has not been tested; and there can be no assurance that, if tested, such legislation will be upheld. In the event such superior court foreclosure or foreclosures are necessary, there may be a delay in payments to Bond Owners pending prosecution of the foreclosure proceedings and receipt by the City of the proceeds of the foreclosure sale; it is also possible that no bid for the purchase of the applicable property would be received at the foreclosure sale. See the section herein entitled "BOND OWNERS' RISKS." Covenant to Maintain Tax - Exempt Status The City covenants that it will not make any use of the proceeds of the Bonds issued under the Indenture which would cause the Bonds to become "arbitrage bonds" subject to federal income taxation pursuant to the provisions of Section 148(k) of the Code, or to become "federally- guaranteed obligations" pursuant to the provisions of Section 149(b) of the Code, or to become "private activity bonds" pursuant to the provisions of Section 14 1(a) of the Code. To that end, the City will comply with all applicable requirements of the Code and all regulations of the United States Department of Treasury issued thereunder to the extent such requirements ace, at the time, applicable and in effect. Additionally, the City agrees to implement and follow each and every recommendation provided by bond counsel and deemed to be necessary to be undertaken by the City to ensure compliance with all applicable provisions of the Code in order to preserve the exclusion of interest on the Bonds from gross income for federal income tax purposes. Assessments Create a Lien The Assessment Installments and any interest and penalties thereon constitute a lien against the parcels on which they were imposed until the same is paid. Each lien is subordinate to all fixed special assessment liens previously imposed upon the same property but has priority over all private liens and over all fixed special assessment liens which may thereafter be created against the property. Each lien is also co- equal to and independent of the lien for general and special taxes. Limited City Obligation Upon Delinquency The City's obligation to advance moneys to pay debt service on the Bonds in the event of delinquent Assessment Installments is limited to the balance in the Reserve Fund. Neither the faith and credit nor the taxing power of the City, the State of California or any political subdivision thereof is pledged to the payment of the Bonds. THE DISTRICT Description The District consists of approximately 26.5 acres located in the City. The District is bordered by G Street, East Balboa Boulevard, Channel Road and Ocean Boulevard. The District was formed by the City on July 28, 2009. The amount of assessments levied in the District was $5,863,059, and prepayments have been made with respect to $2,433,812 of assessments. There are currently 218 parcels in the District with unpaid assessments in the amount of $3,429,247.

Source: Harris & Associates. 11 Assessments The City Council has taken proceedings under the 1913 Act for the formation of the District and has confirmed an assessment, which assessment and a related diagram were recorded in the office of the City Engineer, acting as the Superintendent of Streets, and with the County Recorder of the County of Orange. A notice of assessment, as prescribed in Section 3114 of the Streets and Highways Code, has been recorded with the County Recorder of the County of Orange, whereupon the assessment attached as a lien upon the property assessed within the District as provided in Section 3115 of the Streets and Highways Code. On July 28, 2009, the City Council conducted a duly noticed public hearing and ballot procedure regarding the formation of the District and the issuance of the Bonds. At the ballot procedure, the property owners approved the levy of the assessments. At the end of the 30-day cash collection period, a list of unpaid assessments was filed with the City Treasurer pursuant to Section 8620 of the 1915 Act. During the 30-day cash collection period, prepayments have been made with respect to $2,433,812 of assessments, and the Administrative Services Director has listed all unpaid assessments in the aggregate amount of $3,429,247. The amounts to be assessed against the parcels of property to pay the costs and expenses of the acquisition and construction of the improvements have been based on the estimated benefits to be derived by the various properties within the District. Teeter Plan A Teeter Plan is an alternative method for the distribution of secured property taxes to local agencies. Teeter Plan provisions are set forth in Sections 4701 to 4717 of the California Revenue and Taxation Code. If a Teeter Plan is adopted and implemented by a County Board of Supervisors, local agencies for which a county acts as "bank" and certain other public agencies and taxing areas located in that county receive annually the full amount of their share of property taxes on the secured rolls, including delinquent property taxes which have yet to be collected. No Teeter Plan applies to the District. Estimated Direct and Overlapping Indebtedness Within the District's boundaries are numerous overlapping local agencies providing public services. Some of these local agencies have outstanding bonds which are secured by taxes and assessments on the parcels within the District and others have authorized but unissued bonds which, if issued, will be secured by taxes and assessments levied on parcels within the District. The approximate amount of the direct and overlapping debt secured by such taxes and assessment on the parcels within the District for Fiscal Year 2009 -10 is shown in Table 3 below (the "Debt Report"). The Debt Report has been derived from data assembled and reported to the District by California Municipal Statistics, Inc. Neither the District nor the City have independently verified the information in the Debt Report and do not guarantee its completeness or accuracy. 12 TABLE 3 CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH ASSESSMENT DISTRICT NO. 103 (G STREET/EAST BALBOA BOULEVARD /CHANNEL ROAD /OCEAN BOULEVARD) LIMITED OBLIGATION IMPROVEMENT BONDS DIRECT AND OVERLAPPING DEBT (Excludes Parcels with Prepaid Assessments) 2009 -10 Local Secured Assessed Valuation: S [TO COME] Assessed Value -to -Lien Ratios As of July, 2009, the assessed value of the parcels with unpaid assessments, is $178,860,830.

BOND OWNERS' RISKS In addition to the other information contained in this Official Statement, the following riskfactors should be carefully considered in evaluating the investment quality of the Bonds. The City cautions prospective investors that this discussion does not purport to be comprehensive or definitive and does not Purport to be a complete statement of all factors which may be considered as risks in evaluating the credit quality of the Bonds. The occurrence of one or more of the events discussed herein could adversely affect the ability or willingness of property owners in the District to pay their Assessment Installments when due. Any such failure to pay Assessment Installments could result in the inability of the City to make full and punctual payments of debt service on the Bonds. In addition, the occurrence of one or more of the events discussed herein could adversely affect the value of the property in the District. 17 General In order to pay debt service on the Bonds, it is necessary that unpaid Assessment Installments on land within the District are paid in a timely manner. To the extent available, the Reserve Fund will be used to pay delinquent Assessment Installments should they occur. The assessments are secured by a lien on the parcels of land located in the District and the City may institute foreclosure proceedings to sell land with delinquent Assessment Installments for the amount of such delinquent installments in order to obtain funds to pay debt service on the Bonds. Failure by owners of the parcels to pay Assessment Installments when due, depletion of the Reserve Fund or the inability of the City to sell parcels which have been subject to foreclosure proceedings for amounts sufficient to cover the delinquent Assessment Installments for such parcels may result in the inability of the City to make full or punctual payments of debt service on the Bonds, and Bond Owners would therefore be adversely affected. Risks of Real Estate Secured Investments Generally The Bond Owners will be subject to the risks generally incident to an investment secured by real estate, including, without limitation, (i) adverse changes in local market conditions, such as changes in the market value of real property in the vicinity of the District, the supply of or demand for comparable properties in such area and the market value of residential or commercial property in the event of sale or foreclosure; (h) changes in real estate tax rate and other operating expenses, governmental rules ( including, without limitation, zoning laws and laws relating to endangered species and hazardous materials) and fiscal policies; and (iii) natural disasters (including, without limitation, earthquakes, tsunamis, fires and floods), which may result in uninsured losses. Unpaid Assessment Installments do not constitute a personal indebtedness of the owners of the parcels within the District. There is no assurance the owners will be able to pay the Assessment Installments or that they will pay such installments even if financially able to do so. Foreclosure Shortfall Amendments to the 1915 Act enacted in 1988 and effective January 1, 1989, provide that under certain circumstances property may be sold upon foreclosure at a lesser Minimum Price or without a Minimum Price. "Minimum Price" as used in the 1915 Act is the amount equal to the delinquent installments of principal or interest of the assessment or assessment, together with all interest, penalties, costs, fees, charges and other amounts more fully detailed in the 1915 Act. The court may authorize a sale at less than the Minimum Price if the court determines that sale at less than the Minimum Price will not result in an ultimate loss to the Bond Owners or, under certain circumstances, if owners of 75% or more of the outstanding Bonds consent to such sale. There can be no assurance that foreclosure proceedings will occur in a timely manner so as to avoid depletion of the Reserve Fund and a delay in payments of debt service on the Bonds. See "SECURPI'Y FOR THE BONDS — Covenant for Superior Court Foreclosure — Judicial Foreclosure Proceedings. " Property Tax Delinquencies As of August 12, 2009, $62,984.17 of the property taxes levied in Fiscal Year 2008 -09 remained delinquent, representing approximately .49% of the property taxes levied on the parcels that did not pay the assessments during the cash collection period. Property taxes for Fiscal Year 2009 -10 are not yet due. The delinquency rate relating to property taxes may or may not be indicative of future delinquency rates for the Assessment Installments. 18 Delinquency Resulting in Ultimate or Temporary Loss on Bonds If a temporary deficiency occurs in the Redemption Fund with which to pay principal and interest due on Bonds that have then matured, past due interest or the principal and interest on Bonds coming due during the current year, but it does not appear to the City Treasurer that there will be an ultimate toss to the Bond Owners, the City Treasurer shall cause the Paying Agent to pay the principal of Bonds which have matured as presented and make interest payments on the Bonds when due, as long as there are available funds in the Redemption Fund, in the order of priority and as required by the Indenture. If it appears to the City Treasurer that there is a danger of an ultimate loss accruing to the Bond Owners for any reason, he or she is required pursuant to the 1915 Act to withhold payment on all matured Bonds and interest on all Bonds and report the facts to the City Council so that the City Council may take proper action to equitably protect all Bond Owners. Concentration of Ownership Ownership of the parcels is concentrated among approximately property owners. See "THE DISTRICT — Top Ten Property Owners." The timely payment of the Assessment Installment will depend upon the willingness and ability of the owners of the parcels to pay such installments when due. The City has not undertaken to assess the financial condition of the owners of the parcels or the likelihood that they will pay or will be able to pay the Assessment Installments when due and expresses no view concerning these matters. Non -Cash Payments of Assessments The 1915 Act may permit the owner of a parcel that is subject to an unpaid Assessment Installment to tender any bond secured by such assessment in payment or partial payment of any installment of the assessment or interest or penalties thereon which may be due or payable. A bond so tendered is to be accepted at the par amount thereof and credit is to be given for any interest thereon accrued to the date of the tender. Thus, if Bonds can be purchased at a discount, it may be to the advantage of a property owner to pay amounts due with respect to an assessment by tendering a Bond. Such a practice would decrease the cash flow available to the City to make payments with respect to other Bonds then outstanding and could result in a default in payment on the Bonds. Land Values The value of the property within the District is a critical factor in determining the investment quality of the Bonds. If a property owner is delinquent in the payment of Assessment Installments, the District's only remedy is to commence foreclosure proceedings against the delinquent parcel in an attempt to obtain funds to pay the delinquent Assessment Installments. Reductions in property values due to a downturn in the economy, physical events, such as earthquakes, tsunamis, fires or floods, stricter land use regulations, delays in development or other events will adversely impact the security underlying the assessments. See "THE DISTRICT — Assessed Value -to -Lien Ratios" herein. The assessed values of the property within the District contained herein do not represent market values arrived at through an appraisal process and generally reflect only the sales price of a parcel when acquired by its current owner, adjusted annually by an amount determined by the County Assessor not to exceed an increase of more than 2% per fiscal year. No assurance can be given that a parcel could actually be sold for its assessed value. No assurance can be given that the values of the property within the District will not decline in the future if one or more events, such as natural disasters or adverse economic conditions, occur. 19 No assurance can be given that any bid will be received for a parcel with delinquent Assessment Installments offered for sale at foreclosure or, if a bid is received, that such bid will be sufficient to pay all delinquent Assessment Installments. See "SECURITY FOR THE BONDS — Covenant for Superior Court Foreclosure." Limited City Obligation Upon Delinquency Pursuant to the 1915 Act, the City has elected not to be obligated to advance funds from the treasury of the City for delinquent Assessment Installments. The only obligation of the City with respect to such delinquencies and the consequent deficiencies in the Redemption Fund is to advance money to the Redemption Fund from the Reserve Fund. The City has no obligation to replenish the Reserve Fund except to the extent that delinquent Assessment Installments are paid or proceeds from foreclosure sales are realized. There is no assurance that the balance in the Reserve Fund will always be adequate to pay all delinquent Assessment Installments and if during the period of delinquency there are insufficient funds in the Reserve Fund, a delay may occur in payments to the Bond Owners. Collection of the Assessments The Assessment Installments are to be collected in the same manner as ordinary ad valorem real property taxes are collected and, except as provided in the special covenant for foreclosure in the Indenture, are to be subject to the same penalties and the same procedure, sale and lien priority in case of delinquency as is provided for ad valorem real property taxes. Pursuant to these procedures, if taxes are unpaid for a period of five years or more, the property may be deeded to the State and then is subject to sale by the County. Pursuant to the 1915 Act, in the event any delinquency in the payment of an Assessment Installment occurs, the City may commence an action in superior court to foreclose the lien therefor within the specified time limits. In such an action, the real property subject to the unpaid amount may be sold at judicial foreclosure sale. Such judicial foreclosure action is not mandatory. Amendments to the 1915 Act enacted in 1988 and effective January 1, 1989, provide that under certain circumstances property may be sold upon foreclosure at a lesser Minimum Price or without a Minimum Price. The court may authorize a sale at less than the Minimum Price if the court determines that sale at less than Minimum Price will not result in an ultimate loss to the Bond Owners or, under certain circumstances, if owners of 75% or more of the outstanding Bonds consent to such sale. See "SECURITY FOR THE BONDS — Covenant for Superior Court Foreclosure — Judicial Foreclosure Proceeding. " There can be no assurance that foreclosure proceedings will occur in a timely manner so as to avoid a delay in payments of debt service on the Bonds. The City has covenanted that the City will commence foreclosure upon the occurrence of a delinquency as provided in the Indenture and thereafter diligently prosecute an action in the superior court to foreclose the lien of the delinquent Assessment Installments against parcels of land in the District for which such installment has been billed but has not been paid and will diligently prosecute and pursue such foreclosure proceedings to judgment and sale, all as provided in the Indenture. See "SECURITY FOR THE BONDS — Covenant for Superior Court Foreclosure." In the event that sales or foreclosures of property are necessary, there could be a delay in payments on the Bonds pending such sales or the prosecution of foreclosure proceedings and receipt by the City of the proceeds of sale. Availability of Funds to Pay Delinquent Assessment Installments Upon receipt of the proceeds from the sale of the Bonds, the City will initially establish the Reserve Fund in the amount of the "Reserve Requirement." The moneys in the Reserve Fund constitute a 20 trust fund for the benefit of the Bond Owners, will be held by the Paying Agent and will be administered by the Paying Agent in accordance with and pursuant to the provisions of the Indenture. If a deficiency occurs in the Redemption Fund for payment of interest on or principal of the Bonds, the Paying Agent will transfer into such fund an amount out of the Reserve Fund needed to pay debt service on the Bonds. There is no assurance that the balance in the Reserve Fund will always be adequate to pay the debt service on the Bonds in the event of delinquent Assessment Installments. If, during the period of delinquency, there are insufficient funds in the Reserve Fund to pay the principal of and interest on the Bonds as they become due, a delay may occur in payment of principal and/or interest to the owners of the Bonds. Owner Not Obligated to Pay Assessments Unpaid assessments do not constitute a personal indebtedness of the owner of parcels within the District, and the property owners have made no commitment to pay the principal of or interest on the Bonds or to support payment of the Bonds in any manner. There is no assurance that the property owners have the ability to pay the Assessment Installments or that, even if they have the ability, they will choose to pay such Assessment Installments. An owner may elect not to pay the assessments when due and cannot be legally compelled to do so. If an owner decides it is not economically feasible to develop or to continue owning its property encumbered by the lien of the assessment, or decides that for any other reason it does not want to retain title to the property, such owner may choose not to pay assessments and to allow the property to be foreclosed. Such a choice may be made due to a decrease in the market value of the property. A foreclosure of the property will result in such owner's interest in the property being transferred to another party. Neither the City nor any Bond Owner will have the ability at any time to seek payment directly from any owner of property within the District of any assessment or any principal or interest due on the Bonds or the ability to control who becomes a subsequent owner of any property within the District. Parity Taxes and Special Assessments; Future Indebtedness The ability or willingness of a property owner in the District to pay the Assessment Installments could be affected by the existence of other taxes and assessments imposed upon the property. The assessments and any penalties thereon constitute alien against the lots and parcels of land on which they have been levied until they are paid. Such lien is subordinate to all fixed special assessment liens previously imposed on the same property but has priority over all existing and future private liens and over all fixed special assessment liens which may thereafter be created against the property. Such lien is co- equal to and independent of the lien for general property taxes and the lien for any community facilities district special taxes regardless of when they are imposed upon the same property. In addition, other public agencies whose boundaries overlap those of the District could, with or in some circumstances without the consent of the owners of the land in the District, impose additional taxes or assessment liens on the property in the District in order to finance public improvements to be located inside or outside of the District. The City, however, has no control over the ability of other entities and districts to issue indebtedness secured by special taxes or assessments payable from all or a portion of the property in the District. In addition, the City has not prohibited itself from establishing assessment districts, community facilities districts or other districts which might impose assessments or taxes against property in the District. The imposition of additional liens on a parity with the assessments could reduce the ability or willingness of the owners of parcels in the District to pay the assessments and increases the possibility that foreclosure proceeds will not be adequate to pay delinquent assessments or the principal of and interest on the Bonds when due. See "THE DISTRICT — Estimated Direct and Overlapping Indebtedness." 21 [CONFIRM There are no existing assessment liens on the property in the District other than the Assessments securing the Bonds, and there are no existing special tax liens on the property.] Bankruptcy and Foreclosure The payment of the assessments and the ability of the City to foreclose the lien of a delinquent unpaid assessment, as discussed in "SECURITY FOR THE BONDS — Covenant for Superior Court Foreclosure," may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or other laws generally affecting creditors' rights or by the laws of the State of California relating to judicial foreclosure. .In addition, the prosecution of a foreclosure action could be delayed due to crowded local court calendars, delays in the legal process and procedural delaying tactics. The various legal opinions to be delivered concurrently with the delivery of the Bonds (including Bond Counsel's approving legal opinion) will be qualified as to the enforceability of the various legal instruments by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws affecting creditors' rights, by the application of equitable principles and by the exercise of judicial discretion in appropriate cases. Although bankruptcy proceedings would not cause the assessments to become extinguished, bankruptcy of a property owner or of a partner or other equity owner of a property owner could result in a stay in the enforcement of the lien for the assessment, a delay in prosecuting superior court foreclosure proceedings or adversely affect the ability or willingness of a property owner to pay the Assessment Installments and could result in delinquent Assessment Installments not being paid in full. In addition, the amount of any lien on property securing the payment of delinquent Assessment Installments 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 Assessment Installments in excess of the reduced lien could then be treated as an unsecured claim by the court. Any such stay of the enforcement of the lien, or any such delay or nonpayment, would increase the likelihood of a delay or default in payment of the principal of and interest on the Bonds and the possibility of delinquent Assessment Installments not being paid in full. Where property is encumbered by liens securing mortgage loans, it is highly probable that bankruptcy of a property owner would delay foreclosure for an extended period of time. Such a delay would increase the likelihood of a delay or default in payment of the principal and interest on the Bonds. FDIC/Federal Government Interests in Parcels The ability of the City to collect interest and penalties specified by the 1915 Act and to foreclose the lien of delinquent Assessment Installments may be limited in certain respects with regard to parcels in which the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the "FDIC "), the Internal Revenue Service, the Drug Enforcement Agency or other similar federal government agencies has or obtains an interest. Specifically, with respect to the FDIC, in the event that any financial institution making a loan which is secured by parcels is taken over by the FDIC and the applicable Assessment Installment is not paid, the remedies available to the City may be constrained. The FDIC's policy statement regarding the payment of state and local real property taxes (the "Policy Statement ") provides that taxes other than ad valorem taxes which are secured by a valid lien in effect before the FDIC acquired an interest in a property will be paid unless the FDIC determines that abandonment of its interests is appropriate. The Policy Statement provides that the FDIC generally will not pay installments of non -ad valorem taxes, such as the Assessment Installments, which are levied after the time the FDIC acquires its fee interest, nor will the FDIC recognize the validity of any lien to secure payment except in certain cases where the Resolution Trust Corporation had an interest in property on or prior to December 31, 1995. Moreover, the Policy Statement provides that, with respect to parcels on which the FDIC holds a mortgage lien, the FDIC wilt not permit its 22 lien to be foreclosed out by a taxing authority without its specific consent, nor will the FDIC pay or recognize liens for any penalties, fines or similar claims imposed for the non - payment of taxes. The City is unable to predict what effect the application of the Policy Statement would have in the event of a delinquency with respect to a portion of the parcels in which the FDIC has or obtains an interest, although prohibiting the lien of the FDIC to be foreclosed out at a judicial foreclosure sale would prevent or delay the foreclosure sale. Natural Disasters Property within the District may be subject to unpredictable seismic activity, fires, floods or other natural disasters. Southern California is a seismically active area. Seismic activity represents a potential risk for damage to buildings, roads and property within the District. In addition, land susceptible to seismic activity may be subject to liquefaction during the occurrence of such event. Homes within the District near the shore of the Pacific Ocean are susceptible to flooding as a result of high tides from the Pacific Ocean. The City currently uses a `tidal valve" system to prevent flooding and to protect the homes. No assurances can be given that such system will always protect homes in the District near the shore of the Pacific Ocean from high tides and flooding. Should such homes be damaged or destroyed as a result of flooding, owners of such homes may be unable or unwilling to pay the Assessment Installments when due. In the event of a severe earthquake, tsunami, fire, flood or other natural disaster, there may be significant damage to both property and infrastructure in the District. As a result, a substantial portion of the property owners may be unable or unwilling to pay the Assessment Installments when due. In addition, the value of land in the District could be diminished in the aftermath of such a natural disaster, reducing the resulting proceeds of foreclosure sales in the event of delinquencies in the payment of the Assessment Installments. Hazardous Substances While government taxes, assessments and charges are a common claim against the value of a parcel, other less common claims may also be relevant. The value of a parcel may be reduced as a result of a claim with regard to a hazardous substance. In general, the owners and operators of a parcel may be required by law to remedy conditions relating to releases or threatened releases of hazardous substances. The federal Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, sometimes referred to as "CERCLA" or the "Super Fund Act," is the most well known and widely applicable of these laws, but California laws with regard to hazardous substances are also stringent and similar in effect. Under many of these laws, the owner (or operator) is obligated to remedy a hazardous substance condition of a parcel whether or not the owner (or operator) had anything to do with creating or handling the hazardous substance. The effect, therefore, should any of the parcels within the District be affected by a hazardous substance, is to reduce the marketability and value by the costs of remedying the condition because the prospective purchaser of such a parcel will, upon becoming the owner of such parcel, become obligated to remedy the condition just as the seller of such a parcel is so obligated. No Acceleration The Bonds do not contain a provision allowing for the acceleration of the Bonds in the event of a payment default or other default under the terms of the Bonds or the Indenture. There is no provision in the Act or the Indenture for acceleration of the Assessment Installments in the event of a payment default 23 by an owner of a parcel or otherwise, or upon any adverse change in the tax status of interest on the Bonds. Pursuant to the Indenture, a Bond Owner is given the right for the equal benefit and protection of all Bond Owners to pursue certain remedies described in Appendix C — "SUMMARY OF CERTAIN PROVISIONS OF THE INDENTURE." Loss of Tax Exemption As discussed under the heading "CONCLUDING INFORMATION — Tax Matters," interest on the Bonds could cease to be.excluded from gross income for purposes of federal income taxation, retroactive to the date the Bonds were issued as a result of acts or omissions of the City in violation of certain provisions of the Code and the covenants of the Indenture. In order to maintain the exclusion from gross income for federal income tax purposes of the interest on the Bonds, the City has covenanted in the Indenture not to take any action, or fail to take any action, if such action or failure to take such action would adversely affect the exclusion from gross income of interest on the Bonds under Section 103 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Should such an event of taxability occur, the Bonds are not subject to early redemption and will remain outstanding to maturity or until redeemed under the optional redemption provisions of the Indenture. See "THE BONDS — Redemption," Future legislative proposals, if enacted into law, clarification of the Code or court decisions may cause interest on the 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. 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 Bonds. Prospective purchasers of the 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. IRS Audit of Tax - Exempt Bond Issues The Internal Revenue Service has initiated an expanded program for the auditing of tax- exempt bond issues, including both random and targeted audits. It is possible that the Bonds will be selected for audit by the Internal Revenue Service. It is also possible that the market value of the Bonds might be affected as a result of such an audit of the Bonds (or by an audit of similar bonds). Limited Secondary Market There can be no guarantee that there will be a secondary market for the Bonds or, if a secondary market exists, that such Bonds can be sold for any particular price. Although the City has committed to provide certain statutorily- required financial and operating information, there can be no assurance that such information will be available to Bond Owners on a timely basis. The failure to provide the required annual financial information does not give rise to monetary damages but merely an action for specific performance. Occasionally, because of general market conditions, lack of current information, the absence of a credit rating for the Bonds or because of adverse history or economic prospects connected with a particular issue, secondary marketing practices in connection with a particular issue are suspended or terminated. Additionally, prices of issues for which a market is being made will depend upon then prevailing circumstances. Such prices could be substantially different from the original purchase price. Ballot Initiatives and Legislative Measures WE From time to time constitutional initiatives or other initiative measures may be adopted by California voters and the State legislature has in the past enacted legislation which has altered the spending limitations or established minimum funding provisions for particular activities. The adoption of any such initiative or legislation might place limitations on the ability of the State, the County or local districts to increase revenues or to increase appropriations. Constitutional Amendment — Articles XIIIC and XIIID An initiative measure commonly referred to as the "Right to Vote on Taxes Act" (the "Initiative ") was approved by the voters of the State of California at the November 5, 1996, general election. The Initiative added Article XBIC ("Article XMC ") and Article XMD ("Article X)TID") to the California Constitution. According to the "Title and Summary" of the Initiative prepared by the California Attorney General, the Initiative limits "the authority of local governments to impose taxes and property- related assessments, fees and charges." Article XMD requires that, beginning July 1, 1997, the proceedings for the levy of any assessment by the City under the 1913 Act (including, if applicable, any increase in such assessment or any supplemental assessment under the 1913 Act) must be conducted in conformity with the provisions of Section 4 of Article X10D. The City completed its proceedings for the levy of assessments in the District on July 28, 2009, after complying with the procedural requirements of Section 4 of Article XM. Under Section 10400 of the 1913 Act, any challenge to the proceedings or the Assessment must be brought within 30 days after the date the assessment was levied. Article XIIIC removes limitations on the initiative power in matters of local taxes, assessments, fees and charges. Article XIHC does not define the term "assessment," and it is unclear whether this term is intended to include assessments levied under the 1913 Act. In the case of the unpaid assessments which are pledged as security for payment of the Bonds, the 1915 Act provides a mandatory, statutory duty of the City and the County Auditor to post Assessment Installments on account of the unpaid assessments to the property tax roll of the County each year while any Bonds are outstanding, commencing with property tax year 2009- 10, in amounts equal to the principal of and interest on the Bonds coming due in the succeeding calendar year, plus certain administrative costs. Although the matter is not free from doubt, it is unlikely that a court would hold that the initiative power can be used to reduce or repeal the unpaid assessments which are pledged as security for payment of the Bonds or to otherwise interfere with performance of the mandatory, statutory duty of the City and the County Auditor with respect to the unpaid assessments which are pledged as security for payment of the Bonds. The interpretation and application of the Initiative 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. CONCLUDING INFORMATION Continuing Disclosure The City has agreed to execute a Disclosure Dissemination Agent Agreement (the "Disclosure Agreement ") prior to delivery of the Bonds for the benefit of the Underwriter, holders and beneficial owners of the Bonds to provide certain financial information and operating data relating the District not later than March 31 after the end of the City's fiscal year (the "Annual Report") and to provide notices of the occurrence of certain enumerated events (the "Listed Events "). Each Annual Report will be filed on 25 behalf of the City by the Dissemination Agent with the Municipal Securities Rulemaking Bond (the "MSRB ") through the Electronic Municipal Market Access system (the "EMMA System ") in an electronic format and accompanied by identifying information as prescribed by the MSRB, with a copy to the Paying Agent and the Underwriter. Any Notice Event (as defined in the Disclosure Dissemination Agent Agreement) will be filed by the City or the Dissemination Agent on behalf of the City, with the MSRB through the EMMA System. The specific nature of the information to be included in the Annual Report and the notices of Notice Events is set forth in APPENDIX F — "DISCLOSURE DISSEMINATION AGENT AGREEMENT." The City has agreed to execute the Disclosure Agreement in order to assist the Underwriter in complying with Securities and Exchange Commission Rule 15c2- 12(b)(5) (the "Rule "). See APPENDIX F— "DISCLOSURE DISSEMINATION AGENT AGREEMENT." It should be noted that the City is required to file certain financial statements with the Annual Report. This requirement has been included in the Disclosure Agreement solely to satisfy the provisions of the Rule. The inclusion of this information does not mean that the Bonds are secured by any resources or property of the City other than as described hereinabove. See `BOND OWNERS' RISKS — Limited City Obligation Upon Delinquency." It should also be noted that the list of significant events which the City has agreed to report includes one item which has absolutely no application to the Bonds. These items have been included in the list solely to satisfy the requirements of the Rule. Any implication from the inclusion of these items in the list to the contrary notwithstanding, the Bonds have not been assigned a credit rating. The City has never failed to comply in all material respects with any previous undertakings with regard to the Rule to provide annual reports or notices of material events. Legal Opinion All proceedings in connection with the issuance of the Bonds are subject to the approval of Meyers, Nave, Riback, Silver & Wilson, a Professional Law Corporation, Bond Counsel ("Bond Counsel "). The opinion of Bond Counsel attesting to the validity of the Bonds will be delivered with each Bond. A form of the opinion to be delivered by Bond Counsel is set forth in Appendix D hereto. The descriptions of the Bonds and statements of law and legal conclusions set forth in this Official Statement under the headings "THE BONDS," "SECURITY FOR THE BONDS," "CONCLUDING INFORMATION — Tax Matters" and Appendices C and D herein have been reviewed by Bond Counsel. Bond Counsel's engagement is limited to a review of the legal procedures required for the authorization of the Bonds and the exemption of interest on the Bonds from income taxation. See "CONCLUDING INFORMATION — Tax Matters" herein. The opinion of Bond Counsel will not consider or extend to any documents, agreements, representations, offering circulars or other material of any kind concerning the Bonds, including the Official Statement, not mentioned in this paragraph. Tax Matters In the opinion of Meyers, Nave, Riback, Silver & Wilson, a Professional Law Corporation, Bond Counsel, based upon an analysis of existing laws, regulations, rulings and court decisions, and assuming, among other things, the accuracy of certain representations and compliance with certain covenants, interest on the Bonds is excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes under Section 103 of the Code and is exempt from State of California personal income taxes. In the further opinion of Bond Counsel, interest on the 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. Bond Counsel expresses no opinion regarding any other tax consequences related to the ownership or disposition of, or 26 the accrual or receipt of interest on, the Bonds. A complete copy of the proposed form of opinion of Bond Counsel is set forth in Appendix D hereto. To the extent the issue price of any maturity of the 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 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 Bonds is the first price at which a substantial amount of such maturity of the 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 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 Bonds should consult their own tax advisors with respect to the tax consequences of ownership of such 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. 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 property treatment of amortizable bond premium in their particular circumstances. The Code imposes various restrictions, conditions and requirements relating to the exclusion from gross income for federal income tax purposes of interest on obligations such as the Bonds. The City, as issuer of the Bonds, has made certain representations and covenanted to comply with certain restrictions, conditions and requirements designed to ensure that interest on the 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 Bonds being included in gross income for federal income tax purposes, possibly from the date of original issuance of the 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 Bonds may adversely affect the value of, or the tax status of interest on, the Bonds. Certain requirements and procedures contained or referred to in the Indenture, the Tax Certificate and other relevant documents may be changed and certain actions (including, without limitation, defeasance of the Bonds) may be taken or omitted under the circumstances and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in such documents. Bond Counsel expresses no opinion as to any Bond or the interest thereon if any such change occurs or action is taken or omitted upon the advice or approval of any person other than Meyers, Nave, Riback, Silver & Wilson, a Professional Law Corporation. 27 Although Bond Counsel is of the opinion that interest on the Bonds is excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes and is exempt from State of California personal income taxes, the ownership or disposition of, or the accrual or receipt of interest on, the Bonds may otherwise affect a beneficial owner's federal, state or local tax liability. The nature and extent of these other tax consequences depends upon the particular tax status of the beneficial owner or the beneficial owner's other items of income or deduction. Bond Counsel expresses no opinion regarding any such other tax consequences. Future legislation, if enacted into law, or clarification of the Code may cause interest on the Bonds to be subject, directly or indirectly, to federal income taxation, or otherwise prevent beneficial owners from realizing the full current benefit of the tax status of such interest. The introduction or enactment of any such future legislation or clarification of the Code may also affect the market price for, or marketability of, the Bonds. Prospective purchasers of the Bonds should consult their own tax advisers regarding any pending or proposed federal tax legislation, as to which Bond Counsel expresses no opinion. 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 Bonds for federal income tax purposes. It is not binding on the Internal Revenue Service (the "IRS ") or the courts. Furthermore, Bond Counsel cannot give and has not given any opinion or assurance about the future activities of the City, or about the effect of future changes in the Code, the applicable regulations, the interpretation thereof or the enforcement thereof by the IRS. The City has covenanted, however, to comply with the requirements of the Code. Bond Counsel's engagement with respect to the Bonds ends with the issuance and delivery of the Bonds, and, unless separately engaged, Bond Counsel is not obligated to defend the City or the beneficial owners regarding the tax- exempt status of the Bonds in the event of an audit examination by the IRS. Under current procedures, parties other than the City and its appointed counsel, including the beneficial owners, would have little, if any, right to participate in the audit examination process. Moreover, because achieving judicial review in connection with an audit examination of tax- exempt bonds is difficult, obtaining an independent review of IRS positions with which the City legitimately disagrees, may not be practicable. Any action of the IRS, including but not limited to selection of the Bonds to audit, or the course or result of such audit, or the audit of bonds representing similar tax issues may affect the market price for, or the marketability of, the Bonds, and may cause the City or the beneficial owners to incur significant expense. No Litigation There is no action, suit or proceeding known by the City to be pending at the present time restraining or enjoining the delivery of the Bonds or in any way contesting or affecting the validity of the Bonds or any proceedings of the City taken with respect to the execution or delivery thereof A no litigation certificate executed by the City will be required to be delivered to the Underwriter simultaneously with the delivery of the Bonds. No Rating The City has not made, and does not contemplate making, application to any rating agency for the assignment of a rating for the Bonds. Financial Interests 28 The fees being paid to the Financial Advisor, Disclosure Counsel and Bond Counsel are contingent upon the issuance and delivery of the Bonds. Underwriting The Bonds were sold to Southwest Securities, Inc. (the "Underwriter") at a negotiated sale. The Underwriter has agreed to purchase the Bonds at a price of $ ($ par value, less an Underwriter's discount of $ and less /plus original issue discount/premium of $ . The purchase contract for the Bonds provides that the Underwriter will purchase all of the Bonds if any are purchased, the obligation to make such purchase is subject to certain terms and conditions set forth in such purchase contract, the approval of certain legal matters by Bond Counsel and certain other conditions. The Underwriter may offer and sell Bonds to certain dealers and others at prices lower than the offering prices stated on the inside cover page hereof. The offering prices may be changed from time to time by the Underwriter. Financial Advisor Fieldman, Rolapp & Associates, Irvine, California, served as financial advisor to the City with respect to the sale of the Bonds. Fieldman, Rolapp & Associates will receive compensation contingent upon the sale and delivery of the Bonds.

This information is included only for general background purposes. It is not intended to suggest that the Bonds are payable from any source other than the assessments and certain funds and accounts created by the Indenture. General Description The City of Newport Beach (the "City") was incorporated September 1, 1906. The Council - Manager form of government was established by Municipal Charter on January 7, 1955.

This summary does not purport to be complete or definitive and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full terms of the Indenture. Purchasers of the bonds are referred to the complete text of the Indenture, copies of which are available upon written request from the Paying Agent. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings given such terms in the body of the Official Statement. TRANSFER OF REGISTERED BONDS. Any Bond may, in accordance with its terms, be transferred upon the books of registration required to be kept by the Paying Agent pursuant to the provisions of the Indenture by the owner in whose name it is registered, or by his or her duly authorized attorney or legal representative, upon surrender of such Bond for registration of such transfer, accompanied by delivery of a written instrument of transfer in a form approved by the Paying Agent and duly executed by the owner of said Bonds. The Paying Agent may require the payment by the Bond owner requesting such transfer of any tax or other governmental charge required to be paid with respect to such transfer and such charges as provided for in the system of registration for registered debt obligations. The Paying Agent may refuse to transfer or exchange either (i) any Bond during the period established by the Paying Agent for the selection of Bonds for prepayment, or (ii) any Bond which the Paying Agent has selected for prepayment in whole or in part under the provisions of the Indenture.

Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Indenture. In such connection, we have reviewed the Resolution, the Indenture, the Tax Certificate of the Issuer dated the date hereof (the "Tax Certificate "), an opinion of the City Attorney as general legal counsel to the Issuer, certifications of the Issuer and others and such other documents, opinions and matters to the extent we deemed necessary to render the opinions set forth herein. Certain agreements, requirements and procedures contained or referred to in the Resolution, the Indenture, the Tax Certificate and other relevant documents may be changed and certain actions (including, without limitation, defeasance of the Bonds) may be taken or omitted under the circumstances and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in such documents. No opinion is expressed herein as to any Bond or the interest thereon if any such change occurs or action is taken or omitted upon the advice or approval of counsel other than ourselves. 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 D -1 events do occur. Our engagement with respect to the Bonds has concluded with their issuance, and we disclaim any obligation to update this opinion. We have assumed the genuineness of all documents and signatures presented to us (whether as originals or copies) and the due and legal execution and delivery thereof by, and validity against, any parties other than the Issuer. We have not undertaken to verify independently, and have assumed, the accuracy of the factual matters represented, warranted or certified in the documents, and of the legal conclusions contained in the opinion, referred to in the second paragraph hereof. Furthermore, we have assumed compliance with all covenants and agreements contained in the Resolution, 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 interest on the 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 Bonds, the Resolution, the Indenture and the Tax Certificate may be subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, fraudulent conveyance, moratorium and other similar 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 cities in the State of California. We express no opinion on the plans, specifications, maps and other engineering details of the proceedings, or upon the validity of the individual separate assessments securing the Bonds which validity depends, in addition to the legal steps required, upon the accuracy of certain of the engineering details. Finally, we undertake no responsibility for the accuracy, completeness or fairness of the Official Statement or other offering material relating to the 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 Bonds constitute valid and binding special assessment obligations of the Issuer, payable solely from and secured by the unpaid assessments and certain funds held under the Indenture. 2. The Resolution and the Indenture have been duly adopted and constitute valid and binding obligations of the Issuer. 3. Interest on the Series 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. Interest on the Bonds 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 in 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 Bonds.

DTC has Standard & Poor's highest rating: AAA. The DTC Rules applicable to its Participants are on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission. More information about DTC can be found at www.dtce.com and www.dtc.org. Purchases of Bonds under the DTC system must be made by or through Direct Participants, which will receive a credit for the Bonds on DTC's records. The ownership interest of each actual purchaser of each Bond ("Beneficial OwneP) is in turn to be recorded on the Direct and Indirect Participants' records. Beneficial Owners will not receive written confirmation from DTC of their purchase. Beneficial Owners are, however, expected to receive written confirmations providing details of the transaction, as well as periodic statements of their holdings, from the Direct or Indirect Participant through which the Beneficial Owner entered into the transaction. Transfers of ownership interests in the Bonds are to be accomplished by entries made on the books of Direct and Indirect Participants acting on behalf of Beneficial Owners. Beneficial Owners will not receive certificates representing their ownership interests in Bonds, except in the event that use of the book -entry system for the Bonds is discontinued. To facilitate subsequent transfers, all Bonds deposited by Direct Participants with DTC are registered in the name of DTC's partnership nominee, Cede & Co., or such other name as may be E -1 requested by an authorized representative of DTC. The deposit of Bonds with DTC and their registration in the name of Cede & Co. or such other DTC nominee do not effect any change in beneficial ownership. DTC has no knowledge of the actual Beneficial Owners of the Bonds; DTC's records reflect only the identity of the Direct Participants to whose accounts such Bonds are credited, which may or may not be the Beneficial Owners. The Direct and Indirect Participants will remain responsible for keeping account of their holdings on behalf of their customers. Conveyance of notices and other communications by DTC to Direct Participants, by Direct Participants to Indirect Participants, and by Direct Participants and Indirect Participants to Beneficial Owners will be governed by arrangements among them, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time to time. Beneficial Owners of Bonds may wish to take certain steps to augment the trarrsmission to them of notices of significant events with respect to the Bonds, such as redemptions, tenders, defaults, and proposed amendments to the Bond documents. For example, Beneficial Owners of Bonds may wish to ascertain that the nominee holding the Bonds for their benefit has agreed to obtain and transmit notices to Beneficial Owners. In the alternative, Beneficial Owners may wish to provide their names and addresses to the registrar and request that copies of notices be provided directly to them. Redemption notices shall be sent to DTC. If less than all of the Bonds within a maturity are being redeemed, DTC's practice is to determine by lot the amount of the interest of each Direct Participant in such maturity to be redeemed. Neither DTC nor Cede & Co. (nor any other DTC nominee) will consent or vote with respect to Bonds unless authorized by a Direct Participant in accordance with DTC's MMI Procedures. Under its usual procedures, DTC mails an Omnibus Proxy to the District as soon as possible after the record date. The Omnibus Proxy assigns Cede & Co.'s consenting or voting rights to those Direct Participants to whose accounts Bonds are credited on the record date (identified in a listing attached to the Omnibus Proxy). Principal, redemption price and interest payments on the 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 District or the Paying Agent, on payable date in accordance with their respective holdings shown on DTC's records. Payments by Participants to Beneficial Owners will be governed by standing instructions and customary practices, as is the case with securities held for the accounts of customers in bearer form or registered in "street name," and will be the responsibility of such Participant and not of DTC, the Paying Agent, or the District, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as may. be in effect from time to time. Payment of principal, redemption price and interest payments to Cede & Co. (or such other nominee as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC) is the responsibility of the District or the Paying Agent, disbursement of such payments to Direct Participants will be the responsibility of DTC, and disbursement of such payments to the Beneficial Owners will be the responsibility of Direct and Indirect Participants. DTC may discontinue providing its services as depository with respect to the Bonds at any time by giving reasonable notice to the District or the Paying Agent. Under such circumstances, in the event that a successor depository is not obtained, Bond certificates are required to be printed and delivered. The District may decide to discontinue use of the system of book - entry-only transfers through DTC (or a successor securities depository). In that event, Bond certificates will be printed and delivered to DTC.

Change Proceeding Resolution to Reduce Assessments (Amended) Resolution Authorizing Sale of Bonds and related documents (Amended) RESOLUTION NO. 2009- A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH ORDERING CHANGE OF PROCEEDINGS TO REDUCE ASSESSMENTS TO REFLECT DELETION OF CAPITALIZED INTEREST FROM ESTIMATED COSTS AND DETERMINING REMAINING UNPAID ASSESSMENTS FOR ASSESSMENT DISTRICT NO. 103 (G STREET/EAST BALBOA BOULEVARD /CHANNEL ROAD /OCEAN BOULEVARD) The City Council of the City of Newport Beach determines, orders and resolves as follows: SECTION 1. RECITALS. a. By proceedings duly had and taken, this City Council (this "Council ") of the City of Newport Beach (the "City ") has provided for (a) the formation of its Assessment District No. 103 (G Street/East Balboa Boulevard/Channel Road/Ocean Boulevard) (the "Assessment District "), under and pursuant to the provisions of the Municipal Improvement Act of 1913 ( Division 12 of the California Streets and Highways Code) (the "1913 Act "), and (b) the issuance of limited obligation improvement bonds (the "Bonds ") under and pursuant to the provisions of the Improvement Bond Act of 1915 (Division 10 of said Streets and Highways Code; hereafter the "1915 Act "). b. On July 28, 2009, this Council adopted its resolution approving the Final Engineer's Report, dated July 28, 2009, as identified in said resolution (the "Final Engineer's Report"), among other things approving and ordering implementation of the undergrounding of the existing overhead utility facilities (the " Undergrounding Project ") located within the public rights -of -way and easements and within or adjacent to the Assessment District, and levying the assessments on the parcels determined to be specially benefited by the Undergrounding Project, in the amounts set forth in the Final Engineer's Report. C. Thereafter, on July 30, 2009, the Notice of Assessment and the assessment diagram for the Assessment District were recorded in the official records of the Orange County Recorder, and the individual assessments thereby became a lien upon the respective individual parcels upon which they had been levied. d. On July 31, 2009, a notice of assessment was mailed to the owner or owners of each parcel assessed, advising that all or any portion of each such assessment could be paid in cash, without interest and at a discount of thirteen percent (13 %) (representing avoided financing costs respecting bond discount, capitalized interest and bond reserve fund), with a deadline of August 31, 2009, for receipt of such cash payments at the office of the Finance Officer of the City (the "Finance Officer "). e. Based upon the completion of these steps, this Council is advised by the Finance Officer that the City will be able to post an installment on account of unpaid assessments on the 2009 -2010 property tax roll of the County of Orange, providing for payment of the debt service on the Bonds on March 2 and September 2, 2010, thereby making unnecessary the inclusion of capitalized interest in the amount of the assessments. f This Council is authorized and by this resolution wishes to order a change of proceedings pursuant to Section 10352 of the 1913 Act, without notice to the property owners in the Assessment District or public hearing, to provide for the reduction of assessments to reflect deletion of the allowance for capitalized interest and thereby pass on to the property owners this savings. g. Following the close of the cash payment period on August 31, the Administrative Services Director of the City (the "Director'), in consultation with the Finance Officer, prepared and submitted to the City Clerk of the City (the "City Clerk ") a Certificate Respecting Paid and Unpaid Assessments, a copy of which certificate is attached to this resolution as Exhibit A and by this reference incorporated herein, certifying that the amount of unpaid assessments, as revised to reflect both the deletion of capitalized interest ordered by this resolution and the cash payments received from property owners wishing to prepay their respective assessments, in whole or in part, without interest, is $3,335,546. h. By this resolution, this Council wishes to establish said amount of unpaid assessments, rounded down to the nearest $100, as the principal amount of limited obligation improvement bonds to be authorized and issued in these proceedings upon the security of said unpaid assessments. SECTION 2. RECITALS TRUE AND CORRECT. The foregoing recitals are true and correct, and this Council so finds and determines. SECTION 3. REDUCTION OF UNPAID ASSESSMENTS. Pursuant to the provisions of Section 10352 of the 1913 Act, this Council hereby orders a reduction in the principal amount of each unpaid assessment equal to five and seventy-five one- hundredths percent (5.75 %) to pass on to the property owners the savings achieved by eliminating the need to capitalize interest payable on the Bonds on March 2 and September 2, 2010. Those property owners who prepaid, whether in whole or in part, their assessments during the cash payment period have already received this discount as part of the thirteen percent (13.0 %) discount applied to such cash payments. SECTION 4. DETERMINATION OF AMOUNT OF UNPAID ASSESSMENTS. This Council hereby finds and determines that, as set forth in the attached certificate, and there being no information to the contrary, the amount of assessments remaining unpaid in the Assessment District is the amount set forth in said certificate, namely $3,335,546, and by 2 separate resolution, this Council will authorize the issuance of the Bonds in said principal amount, rounded down to the nearest $100. SECTION 5. RECORDATION OF ADDENDUM TO NOTICE OF ASSESSMENT. The City Clerk is authorized and directed to cause the preparation and recording of an appropriate addendum to the notice of assessment which was recorded on July 30, 2009, to reflect (a) the discharge of lien respecting those parcels for which the assessment has been fully prepaid and discharged, (b) the reduced amount of the assessment for those parcels for which the assessment has been partially prepaid, and (c) the reduced amount of the remaining unpaid assessments as ordered by this resolution. SECTION 6. TRANSMITTAL TO COUNTY AUDITOR. The Clerk is hereby directed to transmit a certified copy of this resolution to the Orange County Auditor, and the Orange County Auditor is requested to proceed in accordance with Section 8682 of the California Streets and Highways Code in the collection of installments of principal, interest and administrative costs respecting these unpaid assessments on the secured property tax assessment roll of the County of Orange, commencing with the 2009 -2010 tax roll.

(3) The total amount of cash payments received by the City from property owners on account of assessments levied in the Assessment District, prior to expiration of the cash payment period on August 31, 2009, as reported to me by the Finance Officer of the City, has resulted in a total reduction in the amount of unpaid assessments of $2,527,513 (when rounded to the nearest dollar). (4) After deducting the amount set forth in paragraph 3 above on account of cash payments received during the cash payment period, the amount of assessments remaining unpaid in the Assessment District is $3,335,546. 1278133.1 Executed at Newport Beach, California, on September 3, 2009. 4 r Dennis Danner Administrative Services Director City of Newport Beach City of Newport Beach Assessment District 103 List of Paid and Unpaid Assessments Amount of Asml.

RECITALS. a. This City Council (this "Council ") of the City of Newport Beach (the "City "), by proceedings duly had and taken, previously provided for the formation of its Assessment District No. 103 (G Street/East Balboa Boulevard/Channel Road/Ocean Boulevard) (the "Assessment District "), under and pursuant to the provisions of the Municipal Improvement Act of 1913 (Division 12 of the California Streets and Highways Code), and indicated its intention to provide for the issuance of limited obligation improvement bonds under and pursuant to the provisions of the Improvement Bond Act of 1915 (Division 10 of said Streets and Highways Code; hereafter the "Act ") in a principal amount equal to the unpaid assessments of the Assessment District. b.

C. The assessment diagram and the Notice of Assessment respecting the Assessment District were thereafter recorded in the official records of the County Recorder of the County of Orange, thereby establishing liens upon the respective parcels upon which the individual assessments were levied to secure payment of said assessments as provided by the Act. d. The period of time within which property owners could, if they wished to do so, prepay all or any portion of the assessment levied upon the parcel or parcels owned by such property owners within the Assessment District expired on August 31, 2009, and the Administrative Services Director of the City has executed and submitted to this Council at its September S meeting a Certificate Respecting Paid and Unpaid Assessments, certifying to this Council that the amount of unpaid assessments is $3,335,546, and this Council, by separate resolution adopted this same date, has determined on the basis of said Certificate Respecting Paid and Unpaid Assessments, that the amount of unpaid assessments is $3,335,546. e. The City is empowered under the provisions of the Act to provide for the issuance, sale and delivery of limited obligation improvement bonds upon the security of the unpaid assessments and in a principal amount which as nearly as practicable is equal to the amount of the unpaid assessments. f This Council wishes by this resolution to authorize the issuance of a series of bonds, under and pursuant to the Act, to be designated the "City of Newport Beach Assessment District No. 103 (G St/Fast Balboa Blvd/Channel Rd/Ocean Blvd) Limited Obligation Improvement Bonds (the "Bonds "), in a principal amount equal to the amount of the unpaid assessments, rounded down to the nearest $100, to complete the funding for the Undergrounding, to fund a reserve fund and to pay incidental costs of the Assessment District proceedings and the costs of issuance for the Bonds. g. The City has determined that all things necessary to make the Bonds, when authenticated and issued as provided in that certain Bond Indenture (the "Bond Indenture "), dated as of September 1, 2009, between the City and U.S. Bank National Association, as paying agent (the "Paying Agent "), the valid, binding and legal obligations of the City according to the import thereof and hereof have been done and performed. h. In furtherance of implementing the financing, there have been filed with the City Clerk and presented to this meeting for consideration and approval by this Council the following documents: (1) a Bond Indenture, under the terns and provisions of which the Bonds are to be issued and administered; (2) a Bond Purchase Contract, under the terms of which, among other things, the City agrees to sell and Southwest Securities, Inc.

Being fully advised in the matter of the financing, this Council wishes to proceed with implementation of said financing. SECTION 2. ISSUANCE OF BONDS AUTHORIZED. Pursuant to the Act, the Bonds shall be issued in the aggregate principal amount equal to the unpaid assessments, rounded down to the nearest $100; provided, however, that (a) the bond discount, consisting of the net amount of Underwriter's discount, less original issue discount, if any, plus original issue premium, if any, shall not exceed the amount set forth in the Final Engineer's Report, as adjusted to reflect the discounted cash payments made on account of assessments during the cash payment period, (b) the maximum net interest rate on any maturity shall not exceed 7.00 %, and (d) the last maturity shall not extend beyond the year 2024. The Bonds may be issued as either (1) traditional tax- exempt Bonds or (2) direct payment Build America Bonds ( "Direct Payment BABs "), to be structured and issued as authorized by and pursuant to the American Reinvestment and Recovery Act of 2009 (the "Recovery Act"), or any combination of the two, as shall be determined by the Finance Director of the City (the "Finance Director ") in consultation with the Underwriter to be in the best interest of the City. As used in the foregoing paragraph, the term "net interest rate" shall mean, with respect to Direct Payment BABs, if issued as authorized by this resolution, the interest rate payable to holders of the Bonds less the rate at which the direct payment to the City, as issuer of the Bonds, is determined.

C. The Underwriter is authorized to distribute said Preliminary Official Statement and the final Official Statement to be derived therefrom in connection with sale and delivery of the Bonds.
