schedules provided by the Co-Financial Advisors on behalf <strong>of</strong> the <strong>Commission</strong> relating to the adequacy <strong>of</strong><br />

forecasted receipts <strong>of</strong> principal <strong>and</strong> interest on the Governmental Obligations <strong>and</strong> cash to be held pursuant to the<br />

Escrow Agreement; will be verified by Grant Thornton LLP, independent certified public accountants (the<br />

“Verification Agent”). Such verification shall be based solely upon information <strong>and</strong> assumptions supplied to the<br />

Verification Agent by the Co-Financial Advisors. The Verification Agent has not made a study or evaluation <strong>of</strong> the<br />

information <strong>and</strong> assumptions on which such computations are based <strong>and</strong>, accordingly, has not expressed an opinion<br />

TAX MATTERS<br />

In the opinion <strong>of</strong> Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe LLP <strong>and</strong> Ronald E. Lee, Esq. (“Co-Bond Counsel”), based<br />

upon an analysis <strong>of</strong> existing laws, regulations, rulings <strong>and</strong> court decisions, <strong>and</strong> assuming, among other matters, the<br />

accuracy <strong>of</strong> certain representations <strong>and</strong> compliance with certain covenants, interest on the 2010A Bonds is excluded<br />

from gross income for federal income tax purposes under Section 103 <strong>of</strong> the Internal Revenue Code <strong>of</strong> 1986 (the<br />

“Code”), except that no opinion is expressed as to the status <strong>of</strong> interest on any 2010A Bond for any period that such<br />

2010A Bond is held by a “substantial user” <strong>of</strong> the facilities financed or refinanced by the Bonds or by a “related<br />

person” within the meaning <strong>of</strong> Section 147(a) <strong>of</strong> the Code. Co-Bond Counsel observe, however, that interest on the<br />

2010A Bonds is a specific preference item for purposes <strong>of</strong> the federal individual <strong>and</strong> corporate alternative minimum<br />

taxes. Co-Bond Counsel is also <strong>of</strong> the opinion that interest on the 2010A Bonds is exempt from State <strong>of</strong> California<br />

personal income taxes. A complete copy <strong>of</strong> the proposed form <strong>of</strong> opinion <strong>of</strong> Co-Bond Counsel is set forth in<br />

APPENDIX G hereto.<br />

The Code imposes various restrictions, conditions <strong>and</strong> requirements relating to the exclusion from gross<br />

income for federal income tax purposes <strong>of</strong> interest on obligations such as the 2010A Bonds. The <strong>Commission</strong> has<br />

made certain representations <strong>and</strong> covenanted to comply with certain restrictions, conditions <strong>and</strong> requirements<br />

designed to ensure that interest on the 2010A Bonds will not be included in federal gross income. Inaccuracy <strong>of</strong><br />

these representations or failure to comply with these covenants may result in interest on the 2010A Bonds being<br />

included in gross income for federal income tax purposes, possibly from the date <strong>of</strong> original issuance <strong>of</strong> the 2010A<br />

Bonds. The opinion <strong>of</strong> Co-Bond Counsel assumes the accuracy <strong>of</strong> these representations <strong>and</strong> compliance with these<br />

covenants. Co-Bond Counsel has not undertaken to determine (or to inform any person) whether any actions taken<br />

(or not taken), or events occurring (or not occurring), or any other matters coming to Co-Bond Counsel’s attention<br />

after the date <strong>of</strong> issuance <strong>of</strong> the 2010A Bonds may adversely affect the value <strong>of</strong>, or the tax status <strong>of</strong> interest on, the<br />

2010A Bonds. Accordingly, the opinion <strong>of</strong> Co-Bond Counsel is not intended to, <strong>and</strong> may not, be relied upon in<br />

connection with any such actions, events or matters.<br />

Although Co-Bond Counsel is <strong>of</strong> the opinion that interest on the 2010A Bonds is excluded from gross<br />

income for federal income tax purposes <strong>and</strong> is exempt from State <strong>of</strong> California personal income taxes, the ownership<br />

or disposition <strong>of</strong>, or the accrual or receipt <strong>of</strong> interest on, the Bonds may otherwise affect a Beneficial Owner’s<br />
