interest on the Note is paid (in whole or in part) by a draw under, payment by or claim upon a Credit
Instrument which draw, payment or claim is not fully reimbursed on such date, such Note shall become

(including the interest component, if applicable) with respect to which the Reserve Fund applies for which
reimbursement on a Drawing has not been fully made) shall be deemed outstanding and shall continue
to bear interest thereafter until paid at the Default Rate. If the Note or the Series of Bonds issued in
connection with the Note is unsecured in whole or in part and the Note is not fully paid at maturity, the
unpaid portion thereof (or the portion thereof to which no Credit Instrument applies which is unpaid) shall
be deemed outstanding and shall continue to bear interest thereafter until paid at the Default Rate. In

Article XVI, Section 18 of the California Constitution and the Local Agency shall not be liable thereon
except to the extent of any available revenues attributable to Fiscal Year 1996-1997, as provided in
Section 8 hereof. The percentage of the Note to which a Credit Instrument, if any, applies (the "Secured
Percentage") shall be equal to the amount of the Credit Instrument divided by the aggregate amount of

percentage (but not greater than 100%) as of the maturity date. The percentage of the Note to which the
Reserve Credit Instrument, if any, applies (the "Secured Reserve Percentage") shall be equal to the
amount of the Reserve Credit Instrument divided by the aggregate amount of unpaid principal of and
interest on such unpaid notes (or portions thereof, including the interest component, if applicable),
expressed as a percentage (but not greater than 100%) as of the Reserve Principal Payment Date.

for any drawings, payments or claims made under or from the Credit Instrument with respect to the Note,
including interest accrued thereon, as provided therein and in the applicable Credit Agreement, and,
(ii) the holders of the Note, or Series of the Bonds issued in connection with the Note, are paid the full

described in (ii) above with respect to Predefau1t Obligations, the Local Agency shall owe only the
percentage of such fees, expenses and Predefau1t Obligations equal to the ratio of the principal amount
of its Note over the aggregate principal amounts of all notes, including the Note, of the Series of which

requisition from the Proceeds Subaccount as specified in the Indenture. Amounts in the Proceeds
Subaccount are hereby pledged to the payment of the Note. The Trustee will not create subaccounts

to the Local Agency's Note on deposit in the Proceeds Fund which shall constitute the Local Agency's
Proceeds Subaccount.
Section 8. Source of Pavrnent.

governments), cash receipts and other moneys which are received by the Local Agency for the general

payment thereof. As security for the payment of the principal of and interest on the Note, the Local
LAI-124236.1
6
RES 96-112
Agency hereby pledges certain unrestricted revenues (as hereinafter provided, the "Pledged Revenues")
which are received by the Local Agency for the general fund of the Local Agency and are attributable
to Fiscal Year 1996-1997, and the principal of the Note and the interest thereon shall constitute a first
lien and charge thereon and shall be payable from the first moneys received by the Local Agency from
such Pledged Revenues, and, to the extent not so paid, shall be paid from any other taxes, income,
revenue, cash receipts and other moneys of the Local Agency lawfully available therefor (all as provided
for in Sections 53856 and 53857 of the Act). The term "unrestricted revenues" shall mean all taxes,
income, revenue (including, but not limited to, revenue from the state and federal governments), cash
receipts, and other moneys, intended as receipts for the general fund of the Local Agency attributable to
Fiscal Year 1996-1997 and which are generally available for the payment of current expenses and other
obligations of the Local Agency. The Noteholders, Bondholders, Credit Provider and, if applicable, the
Reserve Credit Provider shall have a first lien and charge on such certain unrestricted revenues as
hereinafter provided which are received by the Local Agency and are attributable to Fiscal Year
1996-1997.
In order to effect the pledge referenced in the preceding paragraph, the Local Agency
hereby agrees and covenants to establish and maintain a special account within the Local Agency's general
fund to be designated the "1996-1997 Tax and Revenue Anticipation Note Payment Account" (the
"Payment Account") and further agrees and covenants to maintain the Payment Account until the payment
of the principal of the Note and the interest thereon. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Local Agency
elects to have Note proceeds invested in Permitted Investments to be held by the Trustee pursuant to the
Pricing Confirmation, a subaccount of the Payment Account (the "Payment Subaccount") shall be
established for the Local Agency under the Indenture and proceeds credited to such account shall be
pledged to the payment of the Note. The Trustee need not create a subaccount, but may keep a record
to account separately for proceeds of the Note so held and invested by the Trustee which record shall
constitute the Local Agency's Proceeds Subaccount. Transfers from the Payment Subaccount shall be
made in accordance with the Indenture. The Local Agency agrees to transfer to and deposit in the
Payment Account the first amounts received in the months specified in the Pricing Confirmation as
Repayment Months (each individual month a "Repayment Month" and collectively "Repayment Months")
(and any amounts received thereafter attributable to Fiscal Year 1996-1997) until the amount on deposit
in the Payment Account, together with the amount, if any, on deposit in the Payment Subaccount, is equal
in the respective Repayment Months identified in the Pricing Confirmation to the percentage of the
principal and interest due on the Note at maturity specified in the Pricing Confirmation. In making such
transfer and deposit, the Local Agency shall not be required to physically segregate the amounts to be
transferred to and deposited in the Payment Account from the Local Agency's other general fund moneys,
but, notwithstanding any conuningling of funds for investment or other purposes, the amounts required
to be transferred to and deposited in the Payment Account shall nevertheless be subject to the lien and
charge created herein. Anyone of the Authorized Representatives of the Local Agency is hereby
authorized to approve the determination of the Repayment Months and percentages of the principal and
interest due on the Note at maturity required to be on deposit in the Payment Account and/or the Payment
Subaccount in each Repayment Month, all as specified in the Pricing Confirmation, by executing and
delivering the Pricing Confirmation, such execution and delivery to be conclusive evidence of approval
by this Legislative Body and such Authorized Representative; provided, however, that the maximum
number of Repayment Months shall be six and the maximum amount of Pledged Revenues required to
be deposited in each Repayment Month shall not exceed fifty percent (50%) of the principal and interest
due on the Note at maturity. In the event on the day in each such Repayment Month that a deposit to
the Payment Account is required to be made, the Local Agency has not received sufficient unrestricted
revenues to permit the deposit into the Payment Account of the full amount of Pledged Revenues to be
deposited in the Payment Account from said unrestricted revenues in said month, then the amount of any
deficiency shall be satisfied and made up from any other moneys of the Local Agency lawfully available
for the payment of the principal of the Note and the interest thereon, as and when such other moneys are
received or are otherwise legally available.

applicable, (to the extent provided in the Indenture and, if applicable, the Credit Agreement) the payment
of all Predefault Obligations and Reimbursement Obligations owing to the Credit Provider and, if
applicable, the Reserve Credit Provider.

shall be transferred by the Local Agency to the Trustee, to the extent necessary, to pay the principal of
and interest on the Note or to reimburse the Credit Provider for payments made under or pursuant to the
Credit Instrument. In the event that moneys in the Payment Account and/or the Payment Subaccount are
insufficient to pay the principal of and interest on the Note in full on the Maturity Date, such moneys
shall be applied in the following priority: first to pay interest on the Note; second to pay principal of the
Note; third to reimburse the Credit Provider for payment, if any, of interest with respect to the Note;
fourth to reimburse the Credit Provider for payment, if any, of principal with respect to the Note; fifth
to reimburse the Reserve Credit Provider, if any, for payment, if any, of interest with respect to the

Obligations and Reimbursement Obligations, if applicable, have been paid, or provision for such payment
has been made, shall be transferred to the general fund of the Local Agency. subject to any other
disposition required by the Indenture, or, if applicable, the Credit Agreement. Nothing herein shall be

invested by the Trustee pursuant to the Indenture as directed by the Local Agency in Permitted
Investments as described in and under the terms of the Indenture. Any such investment by the Trustee
shall be for the account and risk of the Local Agency, and the Local Agency shall not be deemed to be
relieved of any of its obligations with respect to the Note, the Predefault Obligations or Reimbursement
Obligations, if any, by reason of such investment of the moneys in its Proceeds Subaccount or the
Payment Subaccount.
(E) At the written request of the Credit Provider, if any, or the Reserve Credit
Provider, if any, the Local Agency shall, within ten (10) Business Days following the receipt of such

within the meaning of section 148 of the Code.
III. CERTIFICATIONS REGARDING ARBITRAGE AND REBATE
The following are the certifications and the reasonable expectations of the Local Agency, stated
pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.148-2(b). relating to the use and investment of the proceeds
of the Note:
3.1 The Note is being issued in anticipation of taxes or other revenues and will be spent
to pay lawful expenses of the Local Agency payable from its general fund.
3.2 Based upon the Local Agency's cashflow projections which are set forth in Appendix
E of the Official Statement relating to the Bonds (the "Cashflow Projections"), the Local Agency
expects to allocate the proceeds of the Note to working capital expenditures within 13 months after July
_' 1996, using the methodology described in the next section.
3.3 Proceeds of the Note will be allocated to working capital expenditures of the Local
Agency on any date that the Local Agency's working capital expenditures exceed the Local Agency's
"available amounts." "Available amounts" include any cash, investments, or other amounts held in any
fund or account by the Local Agency that is available for the Local Agency to use for working capital
expenditures without legislative or judicial action and without a legislative, judicial, or contractual
requirement that those amounts be reimbursed. "Available amounts" do not include proceeds of the
Notes or amounts held in a reasonable working capital reserve that is limited to either ten percent (10%)
of the amount of the Note or the lesser of either (i) five percent (5 %) of the Local Agency expenditures
paid out of current revenues during Fiscal Year 1995-1996 or (ii) the amount that the Local Agency has
historically and customarily maintained as a working capital reserve.
3.4 The funds and accounts maintained by or for the benefit of the Local Agency that are
considered available for payment of the Local Agency's expenditures have been described in the Credit
LAl-124233.1
3
-t-
RES 96-11?
Questionnaire. and their cash balances as of the date of issue have been taken into account in the
Cashflow Projections.
3.5 In preparing its cash flow analysis for Fiscal Year 1996-1997, the Local Agency has
reviewed its Fiscal Year 1995-1996 cash flows and has, where applicable, compared the Fiscal
Year 1995-1996 actual cash flows with the Fiscal Year 1995-1996 cash flows projected just before the
beginning of Fiscal Year 1995-1996. Taking this information into account and such other information
as is available to the Local Agency, the Local Agency believes that the projected cash flow analysis for
Fiscal Year 1996-1997 is reasonable and is based on reasonable assumptions.
3.6 All of the proceeds of the Note, together with earnings thereon, less amounts allocable
to the Local Agency. s costs of issuance set fonh in the Purchase Agreement, will be deposited into the
Proceeds Fund established under the Indenture.
3.7 The Note will be repaid from the general funds of the Local Agency received after all
Note Proceeds are spent as described above. The moneys to be so used will be separately accounted
for until used to repay the Note.
3.8 If the Local Agency is unable to make the certification set forth in Paragraph Number
11 of the Pricing Confirmation Supplement, then the Agency hereby makes the following certifications:
All of the proceeds of the Note, together with earnings thereon. will be deposited into the Local
Agency's General Fund (the "General Fund") or a special fund created solely to hold proceeds of the
Note (the "Special Note Fund"). Note proceeds, together with earnings thereon, so deposited may be
withdrawn and expended by the Local Agency on any given day during Fiscal Year 1996-1997 for any
purpose for which the Local Agency is authorized to expend funds from its General Fund, but only after
exhausting all funds that are available amounts as of such given day, and for purposes of this
requirement, available amounts excludes amounts that are held or set aside in a reasonable working
capital reserve that is limited to either ten percent (10%) of the amount of the Note or the lesser of
either (i) five percent (5 %) of the Local Agency expenditures paid out of current revenues during Fiscal
Year 1995-1996 or (ii) the amount that the Local Agency has historically and customarily maintained
as a working capital reserve; provided, that if on the date that is five (5) months from the date of
issuance of the Note or on any date thereafter, it appears that all remaining amounts in the Special Note
Fund (or, if appropriate, all remaining proceeds of the Note, including earnings thereon, held in the
General Fund) will not have been so withdrawn and spent by the date that is six (6) months from the
date of issuance of the Note, the Local Agency shall promptly notify Bond Counsel and, to the extent
of its power and authority, comply with the instructions from Bond Counsel as to the means of
satisfying the rebate requirements of Section 148 of the Code. The working capital reserve shall be
funded with any revenues of the Local Agency's General Fund but will not be funded with proceeds
of the Note. The working capital reserve will be tracked and administered as a separate account or
subaccount within the General Fund.
On the basis of the facts, estimates and circumstances in existence on the date of delivery, it
is not expected that the proceeds of the Note will be used in a manner that would cause the Note to be
an issue of arbitrage bonds within the meaning of Section 148 of the Code.
3.9 To the best knowledge and belief of the undersigned, there are no other facts, estimates,
or circumstances which would materially change the foregoing statements, and the foregoing
expectations are reasonable.

I have examined and relied upon such records, documents, certificates, and other matters as
are in my judgment necessary to enable me to render the opinions expressed herein. Based on the
foregoing, and with regard to California law and the federal laws of the United States of America,
I am of the opinion that:
1. The Local Agency is a municipal corporation and charter city duly organized and
validly existing under the laws of the State of California;
,., The Resolution authorizing the borrowing of funds for Fiscal Year 1996-1997, the
issuance and sale of the Note and participation in the Program was duly adopted at a meeting of the
Legislative Body of the Local Agency which was called and held pursuant to law with all public
notice required by law and at which a quorum was present and acting throughout, and the Resolution
is in full force and effect and has not been amended, modified, supplemented or rescinded;
3. The Local Agency has full right and lawful authority to execute and deliver the Note
and the Purchase Agreement, and the Local Agency has duly authorized, executed and delivered the
Note and the Purchase Agreement and the Note and the Purchase Agreement are legally valid and
binding obligations of the Local Agency enforceable against the Local Agency in accordance with
their respective terms, except as enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium,
or other laws relating to or affecting creditors' rights generally and the principals of equity if equitable
remedies are sought;
4. The adoption of the Resolution and the execution and delivery of the Note and the
Purchase Agreement and compliance with the provisions of the Note and the Purchase Agreement
under the circumstances contemplated by the Note and the Purchase Agreement do not and will not
conflict with or constitute on the part of the Local Agency a breach of or default under any agreement
or other instrument applicable to or binding upon the Local Agency or any of its properties or any
existing law, regulation, court order or consent decree to which the Local Agency or any or its
properties is subject; and
5. There is no action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or investigation at law or in equity before
or by any court, public board or body, pending or, to my knowledge, threatened against or affecting
the Local Agency: (a) to restrain or enjoin the issuance or delivery of the Note or the Purchase
Agreement; (b) in any way contesting the existence or powers of the Local Agency with respect to
the execution and delivery of the Note or the Purchase Agreement; (c) wherein an unfavorable

m. CERTIFICATIONS REGARDING ARBITRAGE AND REBATE
The following are the certifications and the reasonable expectations of the Local Agency, stated
pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section I. 148-2(b ), relating to the use and investment of the proceeds
of the Note:
3.1 The Note is being issued in anticipation of taxes or other revenues and will be spent
to pay lawful expenses of the Local Agency payable from its general fund.
3.2 Based upon the Local Agency's cashflow projections which are set forth in Appendix
E of the Official Statement relating to the Bonds (the "Cashflow Projections "), the Local Agency
expects to allocate the proceeds of the Note to working capital expenditures within 13 months after July
_' 1996, using the methodology described in the next section.
3.3 Proceeds of the Note will be allocated to working capital expenditures of the Local
Agency on any date that the Local Agency's working capital expenditures exceed the Local Agency's
"available amounts." "Available amounts" include any cash, investments, or other amounts held in any
fund or account by the Local Agency that is available for the Local Agency to use for working capital
expenditures without legislative or judicial action and without a legislative, judicial, or contractual
requirement that those amounts be reimbursed. "Available amounts" do not include proceeds of the
Notes or amounts held in a reasonable working capital reserve that is limited to either ten percent (10%)
of the amount of the Note or the lesser of either (i) five percent (5 %) of the Local Agency expenditures
paid out of current revenues during Fiscal Year 1995-1996 or (ii) the amount that the Local Agency has
historically and customarily maintained as a working capital reserve.
3.4 The funds and accounts maintained by or for the benefit of the Local Agency that are
considered available for payment of the Local Agency's expenditures have been described in the Credit
LAl-124233.l
3
RES 96-112
Questionnaire, and their cash balances as of the date of issue have been taken into account in the
Cashflow Projections.
3.5 In preparing its cash flow analysis for Fiscal Year 1996-1997, the Local Agency has
reviewed its Fiscal Year 1995-1996 cash flows and has, where applicable, compared the Fiscal
Year 1995-1996 actual cash flows with the Fiscal Year 1995-1996 cash flows projected just before the
beginning of Fiscal Year 1995-1996. Taking this information into account and such other information
as is available to the Local Agency, the Local Agency believes that the projected cash flow analysis for
Fiscal Year 1996-1997 is reasonable and is based on reasonable assumptions.
3.6 All of the proceeds of the Note, together with earnings thereon, less amounts allocable
to the Local Agency's costs of issuance set fonh in the Purchase Agreement, will be deposited into the
Proceeds Fund established under the Indenture.
3.7 The Note will be repaid from the general funds of the Local Agency received after all
Note Proceeds are spent as described above. The moneys to be so used will be separately accounted
for until used to repay the Note.
-..-..,.--.... -..
3.8 If the Local Agency is unable to make the cenification set fonh in Paragraph Number
11 of the Pricing Confirmation Supplement, then the Agency hereby makes the following cenifications:
All of the proceeds of the Note, together with earnings thereon, will be deposited into the Local
Agency's General Fund (the "General Fund") or a special fund created solely to hold proceeds of the
Note (the "Special Note Fund"). Note proceeds, together with earnings thereon, so deposited may be
withdrawn and expended by the Local Agency on any given day during Fiscal Year 1996-1997 for any
purpose for which the Local Agency is authorized to expend funds from its General Fund, but only after
exhausting all funds that are available amounts as of such given day, and for purposes of this
requirement, available amounts excludes amounts that are held or set aside in a reasonable working
capital reserve that is limited to either ten percent (10%) of the amount of the Note or the lesser of
either (i) five percent (5 %) of the Local Agency expenditures paid out of current revenues during Fiscal
Year 1995-1996 or (ii) the amount that the Local Agency has historically and customarily maintained
as a working capital reserve; orovided, that if on the date that is five (5) months from the date of
issuance of the Note or on any date th.ereafter, it appears that all remaining amounts in the Special Note
Fund (or, if appropriate, all remaining proceeds of the Note, including earnings thereon, held in the
General Fund) will not have been so withdrawn and spent by the date that is six (6) months from the
date of issuance of the Note, the Local Agency shall promptly notify Bond Counsel and, to the extent
of its power and authority, comply with the instructions from Bond Counsel as to the means of
satisfying the rebate requirements of Section 148 of the Code. The working capital reserve shall be
funded with any revenues of the Local Agency's General Fund but will not be funded with proceeds
of the Note. The working capital reserve will be tracked and administered as a separate account or
subaccount within the General Fund.
On the basis of the facts, estimates and circwnstances in existence on the date of delivery, it
is not expected that the proceeds of the Note will be used in a manner that would cause the Note to be
an issue of arbitrage bonds within the meaning of Section 148 of the Code.
3.9 To the best knowledge and belief of the undersigned, there are no other facts, estimates,
or circumstances which would materially change the foregoing statements, and the foregoing
expectations are reasonable.

I have examined and relied upon such records, documents, certificates, and other matters as
are in my judgment necessary to enable me to render the opinions expressed herein. Based on the
foregoing, and with regard to California law and the federal laws of the United States of America,
I am of the opinion that:
1. The Local Agency is a municipal corporation and charter city duly organized and
validly existing under the laws of the State of California;
2. The Resolution authorizing the borrowing of funds for Fiscal Year 1996-1997, the
issuance and sale of the Note and participation in the Program was duly adopted at a meeting of the
Legislative Body of the Local Agency which was called and held pursuant to law with all public
notice required by law and at which a quorum was present and acting throughout, and the Resolution
is in full force and effect and has not been amended, modified, supplemented or rescinded;
3. The Local Agency has full right and lawful authority to execute and deliver the Note
and the Purchase Agreement, and the Local Agency has duly authorized, executed and delivered the
Note and the Purchase Agreement and the Note and the Purchase Agreement are legally valid and
binding obligations of the Local Agency enforceable against the Local Agency in accordance with
their respective terms, except as enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium,
or other laws relating to or affecting creditors' rights generally and the principals of equity if equitable
remedies are sought; .
4. The adoption of the Resolution and the execution and delivery of the Note and the
Purchase Agreement and compliance with the provisions of the Note and the Purchase Agreement
under the circumstances contemplated by the Note and the Purchase Agreement do not and will not
conflict with or constitute on the part of the Local Agency a breach of or default under any agreement
or other instrument applicable to or binding upon the Local Agency or any of its properties or any
existing law, regulation, court order or consent decree to which the Local Agency or any or its
properties is subject; and
5. There is no action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or investigation at law or in equity before
or by any court, public board or body, pending or, to my knowledge, threatened against or affecting
the Local Agency: (a) to restrain or enjoin the issuance or delivery of the Note or the Purchase
Agreement; (b) in any way contesting the existence or powers of the Local Agency with respect to
the execution and delivery of the Note or the Purchase Agreement; (c) wherein an unfavorable

or (d) which is likely to adversely affect the validity or enforceability of, or the authority or the ability
of the Local Agency to perform its obligations under, the Note, the Purchase Agreement and the
