(the "Bank") from the City of Beaumont, Texas, under a Financing Agreement of June 20, 2014. The Financing Agreement is referred to as the "Issue". There are sections herein dealing with: The Issue 2. Proceeds of the Issue and How They Are Used 3. Issue Not "Private Activity Bonds" 4. General Restrictions on Tax-exempt Obligations 5. Issue Not Arbitrage Bonds 6. Rebate 7. Miscellaneous The issue has been borrowed by City of Beaumont, the "Issuer." The Issuer is a Texas home rule city, and has more than an insubstantial amount of one or more of the powers of eminent domain, the power to tax, or the police power. The Issuer hereby certifies that the following are its reasonable expectations as of the issue date of the issue regarding the amount and use of the gross proceeds of the issue. The section on "Rebate" is not based on reasonable expectations but on the actual facts that occur with regard to the issue, and is included solely to help the Issuer determine its rebate liability, if any. What is the Issue? (a) The issue is not to be aggregated with any other issue. There is no other issue of bonds or other tax exempt obligations being sold at substantially the same time, pursuant to the same plan of financing, and reasonably expected to be payable from substantially the same source of funds. [Reg. 1.150-1(c)] (b) No other issue of tax exempt obligations will be, or has been, sold by the Issuer within fifteen (15) days of the date of sale of the issue. [Reg. 1.150-1(c)(i)] 2. Proceeds of the Issue and How They Are Used. (a) The following are the proceeds of the issue: (1) Sale Proceeds $5,000,000 [Reg. 1.148-1(b)] {02870024.130C / } -I- NO ARBITRAGE AND TAX CERTIFICATE (2) Investment Proceeds $0 [Reg. 1.148-1(b)] (3) Transferred Proceeds $0 [Reg. 1.148-1(b)] (4) Replacement Proceeds $0 [Reg. 1.148-1(c)] "Replacement proceeds" are included in determining "gross proceeds." (b) The proceeds are to be used as follows: (1) $0 is to be used to pay costs of issuance. (2) $0 is to be deposited into a bona fide debt service fund, to be used primarily to achieve a proper matching of revenues with principal and interest payments due on the Issue during each year, to be depleted at least once each bond year except for a reasonable carryover amount not to exceed the greater of (i) the earnings on such fund for the immediately preceding bond year or (J) 1/12th of the principal and interest payments on the issue for the immediately preceding bond year. [Reg. 1.148-1(b)] (3) $0 is to be placed in a reserve fund, reasonably expected to be used directly or indirectly to pay principal or interest on the issue. [Reg. 1.148-1(c)(2)] [There is no reserve fund.] (4) $5,000,000 will be loaned to the City in a series of draws, for acquisition of miscellaneous equipment (the "Equipment'). The amounts received from the sale of the issue or from the investment thereof do not exceed the anticipated costs of acquiring of the Equipment. 3. Not a Private Activity Bond. The sole user of the proceeds of the issue is the Issuer. The Issuer will own the Equipment. There is no management contract for the Equipment. No person has any obligation whatsoever in regard to repayment of the issue other than the Issuer. In particular: (a) Not more than ten percent (10%) of the proceeds of the issue are to be used for any private business use, being a trade or business carried on by any person other than a governmental unit. [Section 141(b)(1) and 141(b)(6)] For purpose of this section, any activity carried on by any person other than a natural person shall be treated as a trade or business. [Section 141(b)(6)(B)] (b) The Equipment is not being leased to anyone, or being operated by anyone other than the Issuer. (c) There is no management contract for the Equipment. {02870024.DOC / } -2- NO ARBITRAGE AND TAX CERTIFICATE (d) The payment of the principal of, or the interest on, more than ten percent (10%) of the proceeds of the issue is not directly or indirectly secured by any interest in property used or to be used for any private business use, payments in respect of such property, or to be derived from payments (whether or not such payments are made to the Issuer) in respect of property, or borrowed money, used or to be used for a private business use. [Section 141(b)(2)] (e) Not more than five percent (5%) of the proceeds of the issue are to be used for any unrelated private business use, or any disproportionate business use. [Section 141(b)(3)] (f) Not more than the lesser of (i) five percent (5%) of the proceeds of the issue, or (ii) $5,000,000 are being used to make loans to persons other than governmental units. [Section 141(c)] (g) There is no private business that has a special legal entitlement to beneficial use of the Equipment (Reg. 1.141-3(b)(7)(i)). (h) There is no special economic benefit derived by any private business from the Equipment based on all the facts and circumstances, even about a special legal entitlement (Reg. 1.141-3(b)(7)(ii)). 4. General Requirements Applicable to All Tax Exempt Obligations. (a) The issue is not required to be in registered form, being a privately placed bank loan not offered to the general public. [Section 149(a)] (b) The issue is not federally guaranteed. In particular, (i) payment of the principal or interest with respect to such issue is not guaranteed, either directly or indirectly, in whole or in part by the United States or any agency or instrumentality thereof; (ii) five percent (5%) or more of the proceeds of the issue are not to be used in making loans the payment of principal or interest with respect to which are to be guaranteed in whole or in part by the United States or any agency or instrumentality thereof; and (iii) five percent (5%) or more of the proceeds of the issue are not to be invested, directly or indirectly, in federally insured accounts. [Section 149(b)] (c) The Issuer agrees to file the information reporting requirements (Form 8038-G) required by Section 149 in a timely fashion. (d) The issue is not a "pooled financing bond." Not more than $5,000,000 of the proceeds of the issue are reasonably expected at the time of issuance to be used (or are intentionally used) directly or indirectly to make or finance loans to two or more ultimate borrowers. [Section 149(f)] (e) The issue is not a hedge bond. The Issuer reasonably expects that eighty-five percent (85%) of the spendable proceeds of the issue will be used to carry out the governmental purposes of the issue within the three (3) year period beginning on the date the issue is issued, and not more than fifty percent (50%) of the proceeds of {02870024.DOC i 1 -3- NO ARBITRAGE AND TAX CERTIFICATE the issue are invested in non -purpose investments having a substantially guaranteed yield for four (4) years or more. [Section 149(g)] 5. Issue Not Arbitrage Bonds. (a) Issue Price. (1) The "Issue price" of the issue, being the first price at which a substantial amount (ten percent (10%) or more) of the issue is sold to the Bank is $5,000,000 [Section 148(h); Reg. 1.148-1(b)] (b) Yield. The "yield" on the issue, being the discount rate that, when used in computing the present value as of the issue date of all unconditionally payable payments of principal, interest and fees for qualified guarantees on the issue, and amounts reasonably expected to be paid as fees for qualified guarantees on the issue, produces an amount equal to the present value, using the same discount rate, of the aggregate issue price of the issue, of the issue as of the issue date is 1.460% per annum. [Reg. 1.148-4(a) and (b)] (c) What Is "Materially Higher" Yield? The amount by which yield on the acquired obligations (i.e., those in which the gross proceeds of the issue are invested) may exceed the yield on the issue is 1/8 of one percent (1%). [Reg. 1.148-2(d)(2)(i)]. For replacement proceeds, "Materially higher" means 1/1000 of one percent (1%). [Reg. 1.148-2(d)(2)(ii)] (d) What Are the "Gross Proceeds" Subject to Arbitrage Restriction? [Reg. 1.148-2(a)] (1) Sale Proceeds of the issue, being all amounts actually or constructively received from the sale of the issue are $5,000,000 [Reg. 1.148-1(b)] (2) Transferred Proceeds do not apply since the issue is not a refunding bond. [Reg. 1.148-9] (3) Investment Proceeds, being all amounts actually or constructively received from investing proceeds of an issue, are anticipated to be $0. [Reg. 1.148-1(b)] (Proceeds of the Issue will be spent immediately on funding draws to acquire the Equipment.) (4) Replacement Proceeds, being amounts that have a sufficient direct nexus to the issue or the governmental purpose of the issue to conclude that such amounts would have been used for the governmental purpose of the issue if the issue were not used or to be used for such purpose, are $0. [Reg. 1.148-1(c)] Such amounts include all sinking funds, pledge funds or other such funds held by or derived from a "substantial beneficiary of the issue," to the extent reasonably expected to be used, rid.] for example: (i) debt service funds t02870024.DOC 1 1 -4- NO ARBITRAGE AND TAX CERTIFICATE (ii) redemption funds (iii) reserve funds (iv) funds which are pledged directly or indirectly to pay principal or interest on the issue. Mere availability or preliminary earmarking of amounts to fund the Equipment do not, in themselves, establish sufficient nexus to cause those amounts to be replacement proceeds. There are no negative pledges related to the issue. No amounts are pledged to pay principal or interest on the issue and held under an agreement to maintain the amount at a particular level for the direct or indirect benefit of the holders of the issue. [Reg. 1. 148-1 (c)(3)(ii)] The issue is not outstanding too long, thereby giving rise to "other replacement proceeds" under Reg. 1.148-1(c)(4). The weighted average maturity of the issue does not exceed 120% of the average reasonably expected economic life of the Equipment. (e) The Issuer hereby represents that none of the gross proceeds of the issue are reasonably expected to be invested in materially higher yield "investment type property" other than as part of a reasonably required reserve or replacement fund or for a "Temporary Period" as defined below. (1) Reserve Fund. [See Reg. 1.148-2(f)] There is no reserve fund for the Issue. (2) Bona Fide Debt Service Fund. $0 of the proceeds are being deposited into a "Bona Fide Debt Service Fund" (the "Interest and Sinking Fund" or "Bond Fund"). Installment payments will be made as the same become due, and there is no fund established for this payment prior to such date(s). (3) Equipment Fund. The $5,000,000 deposited to pay costs of acquisition of the Equipment, if invested in higher yielding investments, will qualify under the three (3) year temporary period rule. [Reg. 1.148-2(e)(2)] The Issuer anticipates the Equipment will be acquired by 6 months from the date hereof. The Issuer reasonably expects: (i) At least eighty-five percent (85%) of the net sale proceeds' of the issue are to be allocated to expenditures on the Equipment by three (3) years after the issue date; '"Net sale proceeds" are the sale proceeds minus those proceeds deposited into a reasonably required reserve and replacement fund or as part of a "minor portion." (Reg. 1.148-1(b)j {02 870024. DOC 11 -5- NO ARBITRAGE AND TAX CERTIFICATE (ii) Within six (6) months of the issue date, the Issuer will incur a substantial binding obligation to a third party to expend at least five percent (5%) of the net sale proceeds of the issue on the Equipment; and (iii) The completion of the Equipment, and the allocation of net sale proceeds to Equipment expenditures, shall proceed with due dili- gence. (f} No Overissuance or Other Abusive Device, The Issuer certifies it has taken no action to enable it to exploit the difference between taxable and tax-exempt interest rates to obtain a material financial advantage, or to overburden the tax-exempt bond market. [Reg. 1.148-10(a)(2)] In particular, the Issuer has not issued a larger issue, issued the issue earlier, or allowed the issue to stay outstanding longer than is otherwise reasonably necessary to accomplish the governmental purposes of the issue, based on all the facts and circumstances. [Reg. 1.148-10(a)(4)] The proceeds of the issue are not reasonably expected to exceed by more than a "minor portion" (the lesser of 5% of the sale proceeds or $100,000) the amount necessary to accomplish the governmental purposes of the issue. [Id.; Reg. 1.148-2(g)] 6. Rebate. The Issuer has agreed to rebate to the United States of America the excess of amounts earned on all non -purpose investments over the amounts that would have been earned if those investments had a yield equal to the yield on the Bonds, plus any income attributable to such excess. [Section 148(f), Reg. 1.148-3(a) and (b)] Exceptions: Notwithstanding the above, the Issuer anticipates not having to make rebate payments because none of the proceeds of the Issue will be invested. 7. Miscellaneous. (a) The Issuer has never been disqualified by the Commissioner of the Internal Revenue Service from certifying an issue of its obligations pursuant to Reg. 1.103-13(a)(2)(iv), has never been listed in a notice of disqualification published in the Internal Revenue Bulletin as described in such section, and has never been advised that such a disqualification is contemplated. (b) The Issuer is executing and delivering this Certificate pursuant to Sections 103 and 141 through 150 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 as amended to the date hereof, and Treasury Regulations Sections 1.103-13, 1.103-14, 1.103-15, 1.148-0 through 1.148-11, 1.149(d)-1, and 1.150-1 (the "Regs"). The Issuer hereby elects to apply the Regs to the issue. (c) This Certificate is based on the facts and estimates described herein in existence on this date, which is the date of delivery of the issue against the payment by the initial purchasers thereof. On the basis of such facts and estimates, I expect that the future events described herein will occur. To the best of my knowledge and belief, the expectations set forth herein are reasonable. {02870024.DOC / } -6- NO ARBITRAGE AND TAX CERTIFICATE (d) No receipts from the sale of the issue or amounts received from the investment thereof will be used to pay the principal of or interest on any presently outstanding obligations of the Issuer other than the issue. (e) The Issuer hereby agrees that, to the extent the proceeds of the issue and investment income thereon are in excess of the amount required for the purposes set forth in Section 2(b), that the unexpended proceeds or income shall be used to pay Installment Payments due on the issue. (f) The Issuer is reimbursing itself the sum of $2,108,100 for any prior expenditures it made for the Equipment. The Issuer adopted its reimbursement resolution on October 22, 2013, and all expenses being reimbursed were paid not greater than 60 days prior to the date of adoption of the reimbursement resolution.
