calculated initially for a Planning Area, the CFD Administrator determines that
based on tentative maps, Final Residential Subdivision maps, the Development
Projection, and any other available information there has been a reduction in the
total expected number of dwelling units or non-residential Acres within that
Planning Area, then a Backup Special Tax payment shall be required for each lost
unit or Acre prior to the issuance of any additional building permits or the
recordation of any additional final maps for such Planning Area.

(Dr group of permits) is issued, the CFD Administrator shall ca1culate the Acrual
A v~rage Special Tax Per Unit for the Planning Area. If the AcruaJ Average Special
Tax Per Unit is less than the Required Average Special Tax Per Unit then a Backup
Special Tax payment will be required prior to issuance of the building permit(s)
included within the calculation.
5. Calculation of Backup Special Tax
The Backup Special Tax payment amount will be ca1culated using the prepayment
formula described in Section 1.1, with the following exceptions: (i) if the Backup
Special Tax is required as a result of Section E.3, then the amount used in
Paragraph 1 of the prepayment formula described in Section 1.1 shall equal the
numqer of lost units or Acres, as applicable, times the Required Average Special
Tax Per Unit! Acre; (ii) if the Backup Special Tax is required as a result of Section
EA, then the amount used in Paragraph 1 of the prepayment formula described in
Section 1.1 shall equal the difference between the Acmal Average Special Tax Per
Unit and the Required Average Special Tax Per Unit times the sum of the number
of units for which permits are being issued plus the number of units within the
Planning Area for which building permits have previously been issued. The amount
determined pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be reduced by the balance in
the Backup Special Tax Fund that has been established for such Planning Area; (iii)
in Paragraph 5 of the prepayment formula described in Section 1.1, compute the
amount needed to pay interest on the Bond Redemption Amount until the first
redemption date that occurs after five years from the date of the first Backup
Special Tax payment in the Planning Area; (iv) any Backup Special Tax payments
received for a Planning Area (less Administrative Fees and Expenses) shall be
deposited into the Backup Special Tax Fund for that Planning Area and disbursed
pursuant to the Indenmre; and (v) the Maximum Annual Special Taxes applicable
to property within a Planning Area shaU not be reduced or relieved as a result of
payment of the Backup Special Tax.
6, Use/Release of Backup Special Tax Payments
When a Plartning Area reaches full buildout (i.e. all expected building permits have
been issued), the CFD Administrator shall calculate the actual Developed Property
Maximum Annual Special Tax revenues that will be generated from such Planning
Area. If the actual Developed Properly Maximum Annual Special Tax revenues are
grearer than or equal to I. I times that Planning Area's Share of Annual Debt
Service, the balance in the Backup Special Tax Fund shan be remrned to the payer.
If Backup Special Taxes have been paid by more than one entity, the amount of
Backup Special Taxes returned to each payer shall be in proportion to the amount
paid by each entity. If the actual Developed Property Maximum Annual Special
Tax revenues are less than 1.1 times that Planning Area's Share of Annual Debt
Service, then to the extent necessary to generate 110% coverage, the balance in the
Backup Special Tax Fund shall be used to redeem bonds on the next available
redemption date. Any moneys remaining in Backup Special Tax Fund shaU be
returned to the payer. If a Planning Area has not reached full buildout within five

Property and Public Property. Tax-exempt status will be irrevocably assigned by the CFD
Administrator in the chronological order in which property becomes Property Owner
Association Property or Public Property.

Maximum Annual Special Tax obligation applicable to such Assessor's Parcel may
be fully prepaid and the obligation of the Assessor's Parcel to pay the Maximum

Paragraph No.:
I. For Assessor's Parcels of Developed Property, compute the Maximum
Annual Special Tax for the Assessor's Parcel to be prepaid. For Assessor's
Parcels of Undeveloped Property to be prepaid, compute the Maximum
Annual Special Tax for that Assessor's Parcel as though it was already
designated as Developed Property, based upon the building permit which
has already been issued for that Assessor's Parcel. For Assessor's Parcels
of Public Property to be prepaid, compute the Maximum Annual Special
Tax for such Assessor's Parcel using the Maximum Special Tax for
Undeveloped Property.
2. Divide the Maximum Annual Special Tax computed pursuant to paragraph
1 by the total expected Special Tax revenues as shown in Table 2 in Section
E, excluding any Assessor's Parcels which have been prepaid.
3, Multiply the quotient computed pursuant to paragraph 2 by the Outstanding
Bonds to compute the amount of Outstanding Bonds to be retired and
prepaid (the "Bond Redemption Amount ").
4. Multiply the Bond Redemption Amount computed pursuant to paragraph 3
by the applicable redemption premium, if any, on the Outstanding Bonds
to be redeemed (the "Redemption Premium").
5. Compute the amount needed to pay interest on the Bond Redemption
Amount frorrì the first bond interest and/or principal payment date
following the current Fiscal Year until the earliest redemption date for the
Outstanding Bonds.

Expenses from the date of prepayment until the redemption date for the
Outstanding Bonds to be redeemed wirh the prepayment.

recording any notices to evidence the prepayment and the redemption (the
'Admillisirailve Fees and Expenses ").
11. If reserve funds for the Outstanding Bonds, if any, are at or above 95 % of
the reserve requirement (as defined in the Indenture) on the prepayment
date. a reserve fund credit (the "Reserve Fund Credit") shall be calculated
as follows: (i) if the reserve funds are at or above 100 % of the reserve
requirement, the Reserve Fund Credit shall equal the actual reduction in the
reserve requirement, if any, as a result of the prepayment, or (ii) if the
reserve funds are at 95 % or between 95 % and 100 % of the reserve
requirement, the amount calculated pursuant to paragraph 11 (i) shall be
reduced by the percentage by which the reserve fund is below the reserve
requirement. No Reserve Fund Credit shall be granted if reserve funds are
below 95 % of the reserve requirement.
12. If any capitalized interest for the Outstanding Bonds will not have been
expended at the time of the fIrst interest and/or principal payment following
the current Fiscal Year, a capitalized interest credit shall be calculated by
multiplying the quotient computed pursuant to paragraph 2 by the expected
balance in the capitalized interest fund after such first interest and/or
principal payment (the "Capitalized Interest Credit").
13. The Maximum Annual Special Tax prepayment is equal to the sum of the
amounts computed pursuant to paragraphs 3, 4, 9 and 10, less the amounts
computed pursuant to paragraphs 11 and 12 (the "Prepaymem Amollni").
.
From the Prepayment Amount, the amounts computed pursuant to paragraphs 3,
4, 9, 11 and 12 shall be deposited into the appropriate funds as established under
the Indenture. The amount computed pursuant to paragraph 10 shall be retained
by CFD No. 97-03.
As a result of the payment of the current Fiscal Year's Special Tax levy as
determined under paragraph 7 (above). the CFD Administrator shall remove the
current Fiscal Year's Special Tax levy for such Assessor's Parcel from the County
tax rolls. With respect to any Assessor's Parcel that is prepaid, the Council shall
cause a suitable notice to be recorded in compliance with the Act, to indicate the
prepayment of the Maximum Annual Special Taxes and the release of the
Maximum Annual Special Tax lien on such Assessor's Parcel, and the obligation
of such Assessor's Parcel to pay the Maximum Annual Special Tax shall cease.

be allowed unless the amount of Maximum Annual Special Taxes that may be
levied on Taxable Property within CFD No. 97-03 both prior to and after the
