EXECUTIVE SUMMARY (INCLUDING APPLICABLE ORGANIZATIONAL HISTORY )
Previously, this property (located at the northeast corner of FM 1938 (Davis Blvd) and Solana
Boulevard) was zoned for office and retail uses. In April 2013, after much public input and
meetings, the Town Council, with a unanimous recommendation from the Planning & Zoning
Commission, approved a request by the owner to amend the zoning in this PD1-2 zoning district.
Also in April 2013, prior to consideration of this zoning change request, the land use plan
component of the Town’s Comprehensive Plan was amended to provide for the uses requested in
the zoning change request for this property.
The amended zoning adds certain residential and entertainment uses in order to allow
development of a mixed use Planned Development on this tract. The zoning ordinance, as
amended, is intended to achieve a design that emulates a European style village with a Spanish
architectural theme. The development’s name is Entrada. Following those steps, the Developer
had a preliminary plat approved for Entrada. Also approved for Entrada was a Development
Plan (i.e. a master site plan), and a site plan for one lot with a building elevation for the building
to be built on that lot (where a sales information center is to be located on the west side of
Entrada near FM1938).
During the re-zoning approval process it was pointed out by Town Staff, as well as discussed by
Council, that if the zoning request was approved, the developer intended to submit to the Town a
petition to create a Public Improvement District (PID) to fund the construction of the public
infrastructure for this development. Further, in the Economic Development with the developer
of Entrada, the Town agreed to consider creating a PID for this purpose. This Economic
Development Agreement also was approved by the Town Council in April 2013. The owner
submitted a petition to the Town to create a PID on this tract in October 2013.
This Proposed PID was specifically discussed at several Council workshops (October 28th,
November 11th, and December 9, 2013 as well as January 27th, February 24th, March 24th, and
May 19, 2014 workshops plus discussed as a part of Entrada updates as a standing item at other
Council workshops). During much this entire time t he Town Staff, along with our PID
consultants, have been reviewing various iterations of a draft Appraisal, Preliminary Official
Statement (POS), and Service and Assessment Plan (SAP) since the petition to establish this PID
was submitted by the owner of this tract.
After the December 9, 2013 Council Workshop, it was determined that, due to IRS regulations
related to previous issuance of bank qualified (BQ) debt by the Town, modifications to the
approach previously discussed with Council for issuance of PID bonds would need to be
modified. Options of splitting the bond issuance, as well as using a conduit issuer for one larger
issue were explored. The conduit issuer option, while allowed in other stat es, is not something
the Texas Attorney General’s Office would provide a preliminary approval.
The developer’s team discussed this at the Town Council’s January 27, 2014 workshop. The
developer requested that, while waiting to see which path was best for PID bond issuance, it
would be prudent to go ahead and establish the PID on this site. The Council approved the
resolution to begin the public notification process for a public hearing on creating the PID
for the petitioned property at its January 27, 2014 regular Meeting. Following a public
hearing (no one spoke in opposition), this Public Improvement District was approved to be
created by the Town Council at its February 24, 2014 Regular Meeting.
Page 3 of 3
The process continued on with a May 19, 2014 date targeted for first PID bond issuance.
Eventually, prior to this May 19, 2014 date, the Developer determined that it would be best to
delay bond issuance until 2015 when the BQ issue was no longer a factor. This eliminated the
need to split the first issue into two issues over 2 years and simply issue a larger initial bond
amount (as they had initially intended before the BQ issue surfaced). Further, the Entrada PID
creation was delayed by the assignment of the Entrada agreements to Marquis Construction in
July 2014. But, these agreements were subsequently reassigned by the Council back to the
original Developer (Mehrdad Moayedi) on August 25, 2014 when the property did not close. It
should be noted that the PID document review process had to be halted during the time this
assignment was under consideration as there was no purpose in working on PID documents until
Staff knew for certain who was going to conduct the Entrada project.
At the August 25, 2014 Council Workshop, having been reassigned the Entrada Economic
Development and Developer Agreements, Developer Mehrdad Moayedi assured the Council of
his commitment to the Entrada development and that he planned on proceeding with the PID
bond issuance targeting issuance in January 2015. A new calendar was prepared with Town
Staff and its consultants resuming work with the Developer’s PID team on PID documents. That
process has been in motion since that time per the calendar attached to this agenda memo.
At the Council’s December 15, 2014 meeting the Council discussed the remaining PID bond
issuance calendar. The Town Council adopted a resolution approving the Preliminary Official
Statement (POS) for $26,175,000 in PID Bonds as well as the distribution of this POS for the
planned sale and issuance of these bonds to construct certain authorized infrastructure
improvements in the Solana Improvement District (i.e. Entrada).
At this same meeting the Council also adopted a resolution determining the costs of certain
authorized improvements to be financed by the Solana Pubic Improvement District (i.e. Entrada)
as well as approving a Preliminary Service Plan and Assessment Plan (including a Proposed
Assessment Roll). This resolution also directed the filing of the Proposed Assessment Roll with
the Town Secretary, and called a special meeting and Noticing a Public Hearing on January 15,
2015 to consider levying assessment on property within the Solana Public Improvement District.
RECOMMENDATION
Hold public hearing and consider adoption of Ordinance 741 as related to the Solana Public
Improvement District (i.e. Entrada).

PLAN DESCRIPTION AND DEFINED TERMS
A. Introduction
On February 24, 2014, (the “Creation Date”) the Town of Westlake Town Council (“Town
Council”) passed Resolution No. 14-07 approving and authorizing the creation of the Solana
Public Improvement District (the “PID”) to finance the costs of certain public improvements for
the benefit of property in the PID, all of which is located within the boundaries of the Town of
Westlake, Texas (“Town”).
Upon application of the current property owners, the property within the PID was zoned by
Ordinance No. 703 (the “Zoning Ordinance”) adopted by the Town on April 22, 2013, as
amended and including all required approvals. The Zoning Ordinance designates the type of land
uses that are permitted within the project and includes development standards for each land use
type.
Chapter 372 of the Texas Local Government Code, “the Public Improvement Assessment Act”
(as amended, the “PID Act”), governs the creation and operation of public improvement districts
within the State of Texas. This Service and Assessment Plan has been prepared pursuant to the
PID Act and specifically Sections 372.013, 372.014, 372.015 and 372.016, which address the
requirements of a service and assessment plan and the assessment roll. According to
Section 372.013 of the PID Act, a service plan “must cover a period of at least five years and
must also define the annual indebtedness and the projected costs for improvements. The plan
shall be reviewed and updated annually for the purpose of determining the annual budget for
improvements.” The service plan is described in Section IV of this Service and Assessment Plan.
Section 372.014 of the PID Act states that “an assessment plan must be included in the annual
service plan.” The assessment plan is described in Section V of this Service and Assessment
Plan.
Section 372.015 of the PID Act states that “the governing body of the municipality or county
shall apportion the cost of an improvement to be assessed against property in an improvement
district.” The method of assessing the PID Costs (herein after defined) and apportionment of
such costs to the property in the PID is included in Section V of this Service and Assessment
Plan.
Section 372.016 of the PID Act states that “after the total cost of an improvement is determined,
the governing body of the municipality or county shall prepare a proposed assessment roll. The
roll must state the assessment against each parcel of land in the district, as determined by the
method of assessment chosen by the municipality or county under this subchapter.” The
Assessment Rolls for the PID are included as Appendix E of this Service and Assessment Plan.
The Assessments as shown on the Assessment Rolls are based on the method of assessment and
apportionment of costs described in Section V of this Service and Assessment Plan.
B. Definitions

Section V
ASSESSMENT PLAN
A. Introduction
The PID Act requires the Town Council to apportion the PID Costs on the basis of special
benefits conferred upon the property because of the Authorized Improvements. The PID Act
provides that the PID Costs may be assessed: (i) equally per front foot or square foot; (ii)
according to the value of the property as determined by the governing body, with or without
regard to improvements on the property; or (iii) in any other manner that results in imposing
equal shares of the cost on property similarly benefited. The PID Act further provides that the
governing body may establish by ordinance or order reasonable classifications and formulas for
the apportionment of the cost between the municipality and the area to be assessed and the
methods of assessing the special benefits for various classes of improvements.
This section of this Service and Assessment Plan describes the special benefit received by each
Parcel within the PID as a result of the Authorized Improvements, provides the basis and
justification for the determination that this special benefit exceeds the amount of the
Assessments, and establishes the methodologies by which the Town Council allocates and
reallocates the special benefit of the Authorized Improvements to Parcels in a manner that results
in equal shares of the Actual Costs being apportioned to Parcels similarly benefited. The
determination by the Town Council of the assessment methodologies set forth below is the result
of the discretionary exercise by the Town Council of its legislative authority and governmental
powers and is conclusive and binding on the Developer and all future owners and developers of
the Assessed Property.
For purposes of this Service and Assessment Plan, the Town Council has determined that the
Authorized Improvement Costs shall be allocated to the Assessed Property as described below:
1. The Authorized Improvement Costs for Improvement Project A and Improvement
Project B shall be allocated to the Improvement Area #1 Assessed Property,
Improvement Area #2 Assessed Property and Improvement Area #3 Assessed Property
respectively, on the basis of the total estimated improvement costs that benefit each
Improvement Area (“Direct Improvement Costs”) and the improvement costs that benefit
the entire PID (“Common Improvement Costs), as allocated to each Improvement Area
based on the ratio of the Direct Improvement Costs of each Improvement Area, and that
such method of allocation will result in the imposition of equal shares of the Authorized
Improvement Costs to Parcels similarly benefited.
2. The Town Council has concluded that larger more expensive homes are likely to be built
on the larger lots, and that larger more expensive homes are likely to make greater use of
and receive greater benefit from the Authorized Improvements. In determining the
relative construction costs of Parcels, the Town Council has taken in to consideration (i)
the type of development (i.e., residential, commercial, etc), (ii) residential lot sizes and
the size of homes likely to be built on lots of different sizes, (iii) current and projected
construction costs per square foot as provided by the Developer, (iv) the Authorized
Improvements to be provided and the estimated costs, and (v) the ability of different
property types to utilize and benefit from the improvements.
17
3. The Assessed Property is classified into different Land Use Classes as described in
Appendix D based on the type and size of proposed development on each Parcel.
4. Equivalent Units are calculated for each Land Use Class in each Improvement Area
based on the relative average construction cost per unit of each Land Use Class as shown
in Appendix D. The average construction cost for each Land Use Class in each
Improvement Area is calculated based on the estimated average square feet of each unit
of residential Land Use Class or 1,000 square feet of each commercial Land Use Class, as
applicable, and the estimated average construction cost per square foot of each Land Use
Class.
5. The Authorized Improvement Costs of Improvement Project A and Improvement Project
B that benefit the Improvement Area #1 Assessed Property, Improvement Area #2
Assessed Property and Improvement Area #3 Assessed Property, respectively, are
proportionally allocated based on the total Equivalent Units estimated for each Parcel of
Improvement Area #1 Assessed Property, Improvement Area #2 Assessed Property and
Improvement Area #3 Assessed Property.
Table V-A provides the estimated allocation of costs of the Authorized Improvements.
B. Special Benefit
Assessed Property must receive a direct and special benefit from the Authorized Improvements,
and this benefit must be equal to or greater than the amount of the Assessments. For the purpose
of this Service and Assessment Plan, special benefit means a specific and localized benefit, and a
quantifiable amount of benefit, that infrastructure has on a tract of land. An example is a
roadway providing a specific benefit to the tracts of land immediately in the vicinity of the
roadway, for without its construction, the tracts near a proposed roadway would likely remain
underdeveloped. The quantifiable benefit may be expressed as the increased value of the land
and improvements located on the land because of the placement of public infrastructure near that
land. The Authorized Improvements (more particularly described in line-item format in
Appendix B to this Service and Assessment Plan) and the costs of issuance and payment of costs
incurred in the establishment of the PID shown in Table IV-A are authorized by the Act. These
improvements are provided specifically for the benefit of the Assessed Property.
Each owner of the Assessed Property has acknowledged that the Authorized Improvements
confer a special benefit on the Assessed Property and has consented to the imposition of the
Assessments to pay for the Actual Costs associated therewith. Pursuant to the Landowner’s
Agreement, each owner of the Assessed Property has ratified, confirmed, accepted, agreed to and
approved; (i) the determinations and finding by the Town Council as to the special benefits
described in this Service and Assessment Plan and the Assessment Ordinance; (ii) the Service
and Assessment Plan and the Assessment Ordinance, and (iii) the levying of Assessments on the
Assessed Property. Each of the owners is acting in its interest in consenting to this apportionment
and levying of the Assessments because the special benefit conferred upon the Assessed Property
by the Authorized Improvements exceeds the amount of the Assessments.
The public improvements provide a special benefit to the Assessed Property as a result of the
close proximity of these improvements to the Assessed Property and the specific purpose of
18
these improvements of providing infrastructure for the Assessed Property so that the property
may be developed as proposed. In other words, the Assessed Property could not be used in the
manner proposed without the construction of the Authorized Improvements. The Authorized
Improvements are being provided specifically to meet the needs of the Assessed Property as
required for the proposed use of the property.
The Assessments are being levied to provide the Authorized Improvements that are required for
the highest and best use of the Assessed Property (i.e., the use of the property that is most
valuable, including any costs associated with that use). Highest and best use can be defined as
“the reasonably probable and legal use of property, which is physically possible, appropriately
supported, financially feasible, and that results in the highest value.” (Dictionary of Real Estate
Appraisal, Third Edition.) The Authorized Improvements are expected to be required for the
proposed use of the Assessed Property to be physically possible, appropriately supported,
financially feasible, and maximally productive.
The Developer has evaluated the potential use of the property and has determined that the
highest and best use of the property is the use intended and the legal use for the property as
described in Section II of this Service and Assessment Plan. The use of the Assessed Property as
described herein will require the construction of the Authorized Improvements.
The special assessments will repay financing that is on advantageous terms, as the Bonds issued
to finance the public improvements will pay interest that is exempt from federal income tax. As
a result, all other terms being equal (e.g., maturity, fixed vs. variable rate, risk and credit quality),
the tax-exempt bonds will have a lower interest rate than debt that is not tax-exempt.
Use of the Assessed Property as described in this Service and Assessment Plan and as authorized
by the Zoning Ordinance requires that Authorized Improvements be acquired, constructed,
installed, or improved. Funding the Actual Costs through the PID has been determined by the
Town Council to be the most beneficial means of doing so. Since the Authorized Improvements
are required for the highest and best use of the property, and the PID provides the most beneficial
means of financing the Authorized Improvements, the improvements provided by the PID will be
equal to or greater than the cost of the Assessments levied on the property. Accordingly, the
Assessments result in a special benefit to the Assessed Property, and this special benefit exceeds
the amount of the Assessments. This conclusion is based on and supported by the evidence,
information, and testimony provided to the Town Council.
In summary, the Assessments result in a special benefit to the Assessed Property for the
following reasons:
1. The Authorized Improvements are being provided specifically for the use of the Assessed
Property and a special benefit to the Assessed Property as a result;
2. The Developer has consented to the imposition of the Assessments for the purpose of
providing the Authorized Improvements and the Developer is acting in its interest by
consenting to this imposition;
19
3. The Authorized Improvements are required for the highest and best use of the property;
4. The highest and best use of the Assessed Property is the use of the Assessed Property that
is most valuable (including any costs associated with the use of the Assessed Property);
5. Financing of the PID Costs by establishing the PID is determined to be the most
beneficial means of providing for the Authorized Improvements; and,
6. As a result, the special benefits to the Assessed Property from the Authorized
Improvements will be equal to or greater than the Assessments.
C. Assessment Methodology
C.1 Assessment Part A
The Actual Costs of Improvement Project A may be assessed using any methodology that results
in the imposition of equal shares of the Actual Costs on the Assessed Property in each
Improvement Area similarly benefited. For purpose of this Service and Assessment Plan, the
Town Council has determined that the Actual Costs of Improvement Project A to be financed
with the Series 2015 Bonds and the Reimbursement Agreement shall be allocated to the
Improvement Area #1 Assessed Property by spreading the entire Assessment Part A across the
Parcels based on the estimated Equivalent Units as calculated and shown in Appendix D using
the types and number of lots anticipated to be developed on each Parcel of the Improvement
Area #1 Assessed Property, Improvement Area #2 Assessed Property and Improvement Area #3
Assessed Property. As part of the determination as to the ability of different Land Use Classes to
utilize and benefit from the Authorized Improvements, the Town Council has taken into
consideration that larger, more expensive homes, on average, will create more vehicle trips and
greater demands for water and wastewater consumption, and larger, more expensive homes are
likely to be built on larger, more valuable lots.
Based on the estimates of the costs of Improvement Project A that benefit the Assessed Property
in all Improvement Areas, as provided by G&A Consultants, LLC., and set forth in Table III-A,
the Town Council has determined that the benefit to the Assessed Property in each Improvement
Area, is at least equal to the Assessment Part A levied on the Assessed Property in each
Improvement Area.
The Assessment Part A and Annual Installment Part A for each Parcel or Lot of the Assessed
Property in each Improvement Area are shown on the Assessment Rolls, attached as Appendix E,
and no Assessment Part A shall be changed except as authorized by this Service and Assessment
Plan or the PID Act. Upon subdivisions of any Parcel, the Assessment Part A applicable to a
Parcel will be apportioned pro rata to the resulting Parcels based on the Equivalent Units of each
newly created Parcel. For residential Lots, when final residential building sites are platted,
Assessment Part A will be apportioned proportionately among each Land Use Class based on the
ratio of the Equivalent Unit applicable to each Land Use Class at the time Lots are platted to the
total Equivalent Units of all Lots in the platted Parcel, as determined by the Administrator and
confirmed by the Town Council. The result of this approach is that each final Lot within a
recorded subdivision plat with similar values will have the same Assessment Part A, with larger,
20
more valuable Lots having a proportionately larger share of the Assessments than smaller, less
valuable Lots.
The detailed calculation of the Equivalent Units and allocation of Assessment Part A to each
Improvement Area is shown in Appendix D. Table V-A below sets forth a summary of
Assessment Part A per unit for each of the Land Use Classes in each Improvement Area of the
PID.

Grand Total Assessment Part A $29,575,000.00
C.2 Assessment Part B
The Actual Costs of Improvement Project B may be assessed using any methodology that results
in the imposition of equal shares of the Actual Costs on Improvement Area #1 Assessed Property
similarly benefited. The Town obtained an estimate of the cost of the Authorized Improvements,
specifically, the parking garage, and an estimate of the appraised value of the property within the
PID. As a result, the Town may, in compliance with the PID Act, in the Assessment Ordinance,
defer the levy of an assessment to pay for the parking garage until a future date, specifically, at
the date that the Town gives its final approval to a site plan and construction drawings for the
construction of the Parking Garage. The methodology for allocating Assessment Part B to each
21
Parcel in Improvement Area #1 will be provided as part of an Annual Service Plan Update at the
Assessment Part B is levied.
C.3 Maintenance Assessment
The annual Maintenance Assessment may be assessed using any methodology that results in the
imposition of equal shares of the Maintenance Assessment on Assessed Property similarly
benefited. For purpose of this Service and Assessment Plan, the Town Council has determined
that the Maintenance Assessment to be collected in any given year shall be allocated to each
Improvement Area based on a ratio of the total Equivalent Units for each Improvement Area. In
recognition of the higher traffic generated by the non-residential Land Use Classes in
Improvement Area #1 as compared to the residential Land Use Classes, the Town has
determined approximately 65% of the total Maintenance Assessment allocated to Improvement
Area #1 will be collected from the non-residential Land Use Classes and the remaining 35% of
the total Maintenance Assessment allocated to Improvement Area #1 will be collected from the
residential Land Use Classes. The total amount of Maintenance Assessment allocated to the non-
residential Land Use Classes in Improvement Area #1 will then be allocated to each Land Use
Class based on the relative Equivalent Unit of each Land Use Class. The total amount of
Maintenance Assessment allocated to the residential Land Use Classes in Improvement Area #1
will be allocated to each residential unit equally based on the number of units. The total amount
of Maintenance Assessment allocated to Improvement Area #2 and Improvement Area #3 will
also be allocated to each residential unit equally based on the number of units.
D. Assessments
The Assessments for the Authorized Improvements will be levied on each Parcel according to
the Assessment Rolls, attached hereto as Appendix E. The Assessment Part A and Assessment
Part B on each Parcel was allocated as explained above based on the development to occur on
each Parcel and the Assessment per unit by Land Use Class. The Annual Installment Part A and
Annual Installment Part B will be collected at the time and in the amounts shown on the
Assessment Rolls, subject to any revisions made during an Annual Service Plan Update.
E. Administrative Expenses
The cost of administering the PID and collecting the Annual Installments shall be paid for on a
pro rata basis by each Parcel based on the amount of Assessment levied against the Parcel. The
Administrative Expenses shall be collected as part of and in the same manner as Annual
Installments in the amounts shown on the Assessment Roll, which may be revised based on
actual costs incurred in Annual Service Plan Updates. Administrative Expenses other than
Maintenance Assessments shall be allocated among Parcels in proportion to the amount of the
respective Annual Installments for the Parcels.
G. Additional Interest
Pursuant to the PID Act, the interest rate for Assessments may exceed the actual interest rate per
annum paid on the Bonds by no more than one half of one percent (0.50%). The interest rate
used to determine the Assessments is one half of one percent (0.50%) per annum higher than the
actual rate paid on the Bonds. The Town may allocate up to 0.50% of the interest rate component
22
of the Annual Installments to pay for a prepayment reserve, delinquency reserve, Administrative
Expenses, improvement costs, any other use that benefits the Assessed Property or reduce the
Assessments, as determined by the Town Council.
1. Prepayment Reserve
The Town Council has provided for up to 0.20% of the additional interest may be allocated to
fund the associated interest charged between the date of prepayment of an Assessment and the
date on which Bonds are prepaid. The actual amount of the additional interest to be set aside in
the prepayment reserve shall be determined in the Annual Service Plan Updates in accordance
with the provisions of the Bond Indentures.
2. Delinquency Reserve
Up to 0.30% of the additional interest component of the Annual Installments may be allocated to
offset any possible delinquent payments. The actual amount of the additional interest to be set
aside in the delinquency reserve shall be determined in the Annual Service Plan Updates in
accordance with the provisions of the Bond Indentures.
23
Section VI
TERMS OF THE ASSESSMENTS
A. Amount of Assessments and Annual Installments
The Assessments and Annual Installments for each Parcel of Assessed Property located within
the PID are shown on the Assessment Rolls, attached as Appendix E, and no Assessment shall be
changed except as authorized by this Service and Assessment Plan and the PID Act.
The Annual Installments shall be collected in an amount sufficient to pay principal and interest
on the Bonds and amounts payable pursuant to the Reimbursement Agreement, to fund the
prepayment reserve and delinquency reserve described in Section V and to pay Administrative
Expenses.
The annual Maintenance Assessments shall be collected in an amount sufficient to pay the
estimated costs of maintenance included in the Authorized Improvements maintenance budget
for the year and/or an amount sufficient to replenish withdrawals during the previous year(s), if
any, from any funds or accounts established and maintained for such purpose.
B. Reallocation of Assessments
1. Subdivision
Upon the subdivision of any Parcel, the Assessment Part A for the Parcel prior to the subdivision
shall be reallocated among the new subdivided Parcels according to the following formula:
A = B x (C ÷ D)
Where the terms have the following meanings:
A = the Assessment Part A for each new subdivided Parcel
B = the Assessment Part A for the Parcel prior to subdivision
C = the estimated Equivalent Units to be built on each new subdivided Parcel
D = the sum of the estimated Equivalent Units to be built on all of the new subdivided
Parcels
Similarly, upon the subdivision of any Parcel, the Assessment Part B for the Parcel prior to the
subdivision, if any, shall be reallocated among the new subdivided Parcels according to the
following formula:
A = B x (C ÷ D)
Where the terms have the following meanings:
A = the Assessment Part B for each new subdivided Parcel
B = the Assessment Part B for the Parcel prior to subdivision
C = the estimated Equivalent Units to be built on each new subdivided Parcel
24
D = the sum of the estimated Equivalent Units to be built on all of the new subdivided
Parcels
The calculation of the estimated number of units to be built on a Parcel shall be performed by the
Administrator and confirmed by the Town Council based on the information available regarding
the use of the Parcel. The estimate as confirmed shall be conclusive. The number of units to be
built on a Parcel may be estimated by net land area and reasonable density ratios.
The sum of the Assessment Part A for all newly subdivided Parcels shall equal the Assessment
Part A for the Parcel prior to subdivision. The calculation shall be made separately for each
newly subdivided Parcel. The reallocation of an Assessment Part A for a Parcel that is a
homestead under Texas law may not exceed the Assessment Part A prior to the reallocation and
to the extent the reallocation would exceed such amount, such excess shall be prepaid by the
party requesting the subdivision of the Parcels. Any reallocation pursuant to this section shall be
reflected in an Annual Service Plan Update approved by the Town Council.
Similarly, the sum of the Assessment Part B for all newly subdivided Parcels shall equal the
Assessment Part A for the Parcel prior to subdivision. The calculation shall be made separately
for each newly subdivided Parcel. The reallocation of an Assessment Part B for a Parcel that is a
homestead under Texas law may not exceed the Assessment Part B prior to the reallocation and
to the extent the reallocation would exceed such amount, such excess shall be prepaid by the
party requesting the subdivision of the Parcels. Any reallocation pursuant to this section shall be
reflected in an Annual Service Plan Update approved by the Town Council.
2. Consolidation
Upon the consolidation of two or more Parcels, the Assessment Part A for the consolidated
Parcel shall be the sum of the Assessment Part A for the Parcels prior to consolidation. The
reallocation of an Assessment Part A for a Parcel that is a homestead under Texas law may not
exceed the Assessment Part A prior to the reallocation and to the extent the reallocation would
exceed such amount, such excess shall be prepaid by the party requesting the consolidation of the
Parcels. Any reallocation pursuant to this section shall be reflected in an Annual Service Plan
Update approved by the Town Council.
Similarly, upon the consolidation of two or more Parcels, the Assessment Part B for the
consolidated Parcel shall be the sum of the Assessment Part B for the Parcels prior to
consolidation. The reallocation of an Assessment Part B for a Parcel that is a homestead under
Texas law may not exceed the Assessment Part B prior to the reallocation and to the extent the
reallocation would exceed such amount, such excess shall be prepaid by the party requesting the
consolidation of the Parcels. Any reallocation pursuant to this section shall be reflected in an
Annual Service Plan Update approved by the Town Council.
3. Payment of Excess Assessment
If a subdivision of a Parcel or consolidation of Parcels results in a reallocated Assessment Part A
or Assessment Part B for a Parcel that would exceed the respective Assessment per Equivalent
Unit shown in this Service and Assessment Plan for the applicable Land Use Class (the
"Maximum Assessment"), the owner shall pay to the Town at the time of the subdivision or
consolidation the amount by which the reallocated Assessment for the Parcel exceeds the
25
Maximum Assessment plus, if applicable, accrued interest through the date of such payment.
Prepayment Costs, if any, that result from such owner-initiated subdivision or consolidation shall
be paid by the owner to the Town at the time of the subdivision or consolidation. The Town
Council will not approve for recordation any subdivision plat within the PID until subdivision
regulation and platting requirements are fulfilled and the Administrator has notified the Town
Council in writing that (a) the plat does not contain any Parcels for which the Assessment
exceeds the Maximum Assessment, or (b) the appropriate payment has been received by the
Town for any Parcel for which the allocated Assessment would have exceeded the Maximum
Assessment.
Payments made by an owner pursuant to this section shall be used to reduce the outstanding
principal amount of Bonds and reduce the Assessments and Annual installments for the affected
Parcels, which reductions shall be calculated by the Administrator in accordance with the
applicable Bond Indenture and approved by the Town Council in the next Annual Service Plan
Update. If Bonds have not been issued, payments made by an owner pursuant to this section
shall be used to reduce the outstanding principal due under the Reimbursement Agreement and
reduce the Assessments and Annual Installments for the affected Parcels, which reductions shall
be calculated by the Administrator and approved by the Town Council in the next Annual
Service Plan Update.
C. Mandatory Prepayment of Assessments
1. If at any time the Assessment per Equivalent Unit on a Parcel exceeds the Maximum
Assessment calculated in this Service and Assessment Plan as a result of any changes in Land
Use Class, subdivision, consolidation or reallocation of the Assessment authorized by this
Service and Assessment Plan and initiated by the owner of the Parcel, then such owner shall pay
to the Town prior to the recordation of the document subdividing the Parcel the amount
calculated by the Administrator by which the Assessment per Equivalent Unit for the Parcel
exceeds the Maximum Assessment calculated in this Service and Assessment Plan. The Town
shall not approve the recordation of a plat or other document subdividing a Parcel without a letter
from the Administrator either (a) confirming that the Assessment per Equivalent Unit for any
new Parcel created by the subdivision will not exceed the Maximum Assessment for each Parcel,
or (b) confirming the payment of the Assessments, plus all Prepayment Costs, as provided for
herein.
2. If a Parcel subject to Assessment Part A and/or Assessment Part B is transferred to a
party that is exempt from the payment of the Assessments under applicable law, or if an owner
causes a Parcel subject to Assessments to become Non-Benefited Property, the owner of such
Parcel shall pay to the Town the full amount of the Assessment Part A and/or Assessment Part B
on such Parcel, plus all Prepayment Costs, prior to any such transfer or act.
3. The payments required above shall be treated the same as any Assessment that is due and
owing under the Act, the Assessment Ordinance, and this Service and Assessment Plan,
including the same lien priority, penalties, procedures, and foreclosure specified by the Act.
D. Reduction of Assessments
26
1. If after all Authorized Improvements to be funded with a series of Bonds have been
completed and Actual Costs for such Authorized Improvements are less than the Actual Costs
used to calculate the Assessments securing such series of Bonds, resulting in excess Bond
proceeds being available to redeem Bonds of such series, then the Assessment securing such
series of Bonds for each Parcel of Assessed Property shall be reduced by the Town Council pro
rata such that the sum of the resulting reduced Assessments for all Assessed Properties equals the
actual reduced Actual Costs and such excess Bond proceeds shall applied to redeem Bonds of
such series. The Assessments shall not be reduced to an amount less than the related outstanding
series of Bonds.
2. If all the Authorized Improvements are not undertaken, resulting in excess Bond proceeds
being available to redeem Bonds, then the Assessments and Annual Installments for each Parcel
shall be appropriately reduced by the Town Council to reflect only the amounts required to repay
the Bonds, including interest on the Bonds and Administrative Expenses, and such excess Bond
proceeds shall be applied to redeem Bonds. The Town Council may reduce the Assessments and
the Annual Installments for each Parcel (i) in amounts that would result in the Assessments and
Annual Installments to more accurately reflect the Authorized Improvements provided for each
Parcel, (ii) by an equal percentage calculated based on Equivalent Units, or (iii) in another
method if the Town Council determines such method would better reflect the benefit received by
the Parcels from the Authorized Improvements provided to the Parcels.
E. Payment of Assessments
1. Payment in Full
(a) The Assessment Part A and/or Assessment Part B for any Parcel may be paid in full at
any time. Such payment shall include all Prepayment Costs. If prepayment in full will result in
redemption of Bonds, the payment amount shall be reduced by the amount, if any, of reserve
funds applied to the redemption under the Trust Indenture, net of any other costs applicable to
the redemption of Bonds.
(b) If an Annual Installment has been billed prior to payment in full of an Assessment, the
Annual Installment shall be due and payable and shall be credited against the payment-in-full
amount.
(c) Upon payment in full of the Assessment and all Prepayment Costs, the Town shall
deposit the payment in accordance with the Trust Indenture; whereupon, the Assessment shall be
reduced to zero, and the owner’s obligation to pay the Assessment and Annual Installments
thereof shall automatically terminate.
(d) At the option of the owner, the Assessment Part A and/or Assessment Part B on any
Parcel plus Prepayment Costs may be paid in part at any time. Such prepayment shall include all
Prepayment Costs. Upon the payment of such amounts for a Parcel, the respective Assessment
for the Parcel shall be reduced, the Assessment Roll shall be updated to reflect such partial
payment, and the obligation to pay the respective Annual Installment for such Parcel shall be
reduced to the extent the partial payment is made.
27
2. Payment in Annual Installments
The Act provides that an Assessment for a Parcel may be paid in full at any time. If not paid in
full, the Act authorizes the Town to collect interest, administrative expenses and other authorized
charges in Annual Installments. An Assessment for a Parcel that is not paid in full will be
collected in Annual Installments each year in the amounts shown in the Assessment Rolls, as
updated as provided for herein, which include interest, Administrative Expenses, prepayment
reserve and delinquency reserve. Payment of the Annual Installments shall commence with tax
bills mailed after the initial issuance of Bonds.
Each Assessment shall include an interest component of equal to (i) the actual interest rate paid
on the Bonds and (ii) up to 0.5% per annum. The Assessment Roll sets forth for each year the
Annual Installment for each Parcel based on an estimated interest rate of 7% on the Series 2015
Bonds, an estimated interest rate of 6.72% on the Reimbursement Agreement and additional
interest at the rate of 0.5% for administrative expenses, prepayment reserve and delinquency
reserve. Furthermore, the Annual Installments may not exceed the amounts shown on the
Assessment Rolls. The Assessment Rolls, to be updated with the actual interest rates on the
Bonds and the Reimbursement Agreement once the Bonds are issued and/or the Reimbursement
Agreement is executed, are shown as Appendix E.
The Annual Installment Part A and Annual Installment Part B shall be reduced in the Service and
Assessment Plan or Annual Service Plan Updates to equal the actual costs of repaying the Bonds,
the Reimbursement Agreement and actual Administrative Expenses (as provided for in the
definitions of such terms), taking into consideration any other available funds for these costs,
such as interest income on account balances.
The Town reserves and shall have the right and option to refund the Bonds in accordance with
Section 372.027 of the PID Act. In the event of such refunding, the Administrator shall
recalculate the Annual Installments and , and if necessary, may adjust the amount of the Annual
Installments so that total Annual Installments of Assessments will be produced in annual
amounts that are required to pay the refunding bonds when due and payable as required by and
established in the ordinance and/or the indenture authorizing and securing the refunding bonds,
and such refunding bonds shall constitute Bonds for purposes of this Service and Assessment
Plan.
F. Collection of Annual Installments
No less frequently than annually, the Administrator shall prepare, and the Town Council shall
approve, an Annual Service Plan Update to allow for the billing and collection of Annual
Installments Part A, Annual Installments Part B and annual Maintenance Assessments, if any.
Each Annual Service Plan Update shall include updated Assessment Rolls and calculations of the
Annual Installment Part A, Annual Installment Part B and Annual Parcel Maintenance
Assessment for each Parcel. Each Annual Installment shall be reduced by any credits applied
under the applicable Trust Indenture, such as capitalized interest, interest earnings on any
account balances, and any other funds available to the Trustee for such purpose, including any
existing deposits for a prepayment reserve. Annual Installments and annual Maintenance
Assessments shall be collected by the Town in the same manner and at the same time as ad
28
valorem taxes and shall be subject to the same penalties, procedures, and foreclosure sale in case
of delinquencies as are provided for ad valorem taxes of the Town. The Town Council may
provide for other means of collecting the Annual Installments and annual Maintenance
Assessments to the extent permitted under the PID Act. The Assessments shall have lien priority
as specified in the Act.
Any sale of property for nonpayment of the Annual Installments shall be subject to the lien
established for the remaining unpaid Annual Installments against such property and such
property may again be sold at a judicial foreclosure sale if the purchaser thereof fails to make
timely payment of the non-delinquent Annual Installments against such property as they become
due and payable. Any party taking title to a Parcel, including a buyer at a foreclosure sale, shall
take title to the Parcel subject to the obligation to pay the Assessment on such Parcel thereafter
as provided for herein. If for any reason the Assessment may not be collected thereafter, the
Assessment for the Parcel, along with other charges and credits as would apply for a prepayment
of the Assessment, shall be due and payable at the time of the transfer without further action
required by the Town Council.

Section VII
THE ASSESSMENT ROLL
A. The Assessment Roll
Each Parcel within the PID has been evaluated by the Town Council (based on the Zoning
Ordinance, developable area, proposed Property Owner Association Property and Public
Property, the Authorized Improvements, best and highest use of land, and other development
factors deemed relevant by the Town Council) to determine the Assessed Property within each
Parcel.
The Assessed Property in each Improvement Area will be assessed for the special benefits
conferred upon the property as a result of the Authorized Improvements that benefit the property
within each Improvement Area of the PID. Table IV-A summarizes the $36,390,000 in special
benefit received by the Assessed Property from the Authorized Improvements, the costs of the
PID formation, and Bond issuance costs. The total amount of the Bonds and the Reimbursement
Agreement is $29,575,000, which is less than the benefit received by the Assessed Property, and
as such the total Assessment Part A for Improvement Area #1 Assessed Property, Improvement
Area #2 Assessed Property and Improvement Area #3 Assessed Property is $29,575,000. The
total amount of deferred Assessment Part B for Improvement Area #1 Assessed Property is
$2,425,000, which shall be collected with annual Administrative Expenses and other authorized
charges once levied. The Assessment Part A for each Parcel of Assessed Property in each
Improvement Area is calculated based on the allocation methodologies described in Section V.C
and Appendix D of this Service and Assessment Plan. The Assessment Rolls for each
Improvement Area are attached hereto as Appendix E.
B. Annual Assessment Roll Updates
The Administrator shall prepare, and shall submit to the Town Council for approval, annual
updates to the Assessment Rolls in conjunction with the Annual Service Plan Update to reflect
the following matters, together with any other changes helpful to the Administrator or the Town
and permitted by the Act: (i) the identification of each Parcel (ii) the Assessment for each Parcel
of Assessed Property, including any adjustments authorized by this Service and Assessment Plan
or in the PID Act; (iii) the Annual Installment for the Assessed Property for the year (if the
Assessment is payable in installments); (iii) the annual Maintenance Assessment the Assessed
Property for the year (if any); and (iv) payments of the Assessment, if any, as provided by
Section VI.E of this Service and Assessment Plan.
Once the Bonds are issued and/or the Reimbursement Agreement is executed, the Assessment
Rolls shall be updated, which update may be done in the next Annual Service Plan Update, to
reflect any changes resulting from the issuance of the Bonds and/or execution of the
Reimbursement Agreement. This update shall reflect the actual interest on the Bonds and/or the
Reimbursement Agreement on which the Annual Installments shall be paid, any reduction in the
Assessments, and any revisions in the Actual Costs to be funded by the Bonds and/or the
Reimbursement Agreement and Developer funds.

Section VIII
MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS
A. Administrative Review
The Town may elect to designate a third party to serve as Administrator. The Town shall notify
Developer in writing at least thirty (30) days in advance before appointing a third party
Administrator.
To the extent consistent with the Act, an owner of an Assessed Parcel claiming that a calculation
error has been made in the Assessment Roll(s), including the calculation of the Annual
Installment, shall send a written notice describing the error to the Town not later than thirty (30)
days after the date any amount which is alleged to be incorrect is due prior to seeking any other
remedy. The Administrator shall promptly review the notice, and if necessary, meet with the
Assessed Parcel owner, consider written and oral evidence regarding the alleged error and decide
whether, in fact, such a calculation error occurred.
If the Administrator determines that a calculation error has been made and the Assessment Roll
should be modified or changed in favor of the Assessed Parcel owner, such change or
modification shall be presented to the Town Council for approval to the extent permitted by the
Act. A cash refund may not be made for any amount previously paid by the Assessed Parcel
owner (except for the final year during which the Annual Installment shall be collected or if it is
determined there are sufficient funds to meet the expenses of the PID for the current year), but an
adjustment may be made in the amount of the Annual Installment to be paid in the following
year. The decision of the Administrator regarding a calculation error relating to the Assessment
Roll may be appealed to the Town Council. Any amendments made to the Assessment Roll(s)
pursuant to calculation errors shall be made pursuant to the PID Act.
The decision of the Administrator, or if such decision is appealed to the Town Council, the
decision of the Town Council shall be conclusive as long as there is a reasonable basis for such
determination. This procedure shall be exclusive and its exhaustion by any property owner shall
be a condition precedent to any other appeal or legal action by such owner.
B. Termination of Collection of Assessments
Each Assessment shall be extinguished on the date the Assessment is paid in full, including
unpaid Annual Installments. After the extinguishment of an Assessment and the collection of
any delinquent Annual Installments and Delinquent Collection Costs, the Town shall provide the
owner of the affected Parcel a recordable notice of the satisfaction and release of the Assessment.
C. Amendments
Amendments to the Service and Assessment Plan can be made as permitted or required by the
PID Act and under Texas law.
The Town Council reserves the right to the extent permitted by the Act to amend this Service and
Assessment Plan without notice under the Act and without notice to property owners of Parcels:
(i) to correct mistakes and clerical errors; (ii) to clarify ambiguities; and (iii) to provide
31
procedures for the collection and enforcement of Assessments, Prepayment Costs, Collection
Costs, and other charges imposed by the Service and Assessment Plan.
D. Administration and Interpretation of Provisions
The Town Council shall administer the PID, this Service and Assessment Plan, and all Annual
Service Plan Updates consistent with the PID Act, and shall make all interpretations and
determinations related to the application of this Service and Assessment Plan unless stated
otherwise herein or in the Trust Indenture, such determination shall be conclusive.
E. Severability
If any provision, section, subsection, sentence, clause or phrase of this Service and Assessment
Plan or the application of same to an Assessed Parcel or any person or set of circumstances is for
any reason held to be unconstitutional, void or invalid, the validity of the remaining portions of
this Service and Assessment Plan or the application to other persons or sets of circumstances
shall not be affected thereby, it being the intent of the Town Council in adopting this Service and
Assessment Plan that no part hereof or provision or regulation contained herein shall become
inoperative or fail by reason of any unconstitutionality, voidness or invalidity of any other part
hereof, and all provisions of this Service and Assessment Plan are declared to be severable for
that purpose.
If any provision of this Service and Assessment Plan is determined by a court to be
unenforceable, the unenforceable provision shall be deleted from this Service and Assessment
Plan and the unenforceable provision shall, to the extent possible, be rewritten to be enforceable
and to give effect to the intent of the Town.

As explained under Section V, for purpose of this Service and Assessment Plan, the Town
Council has determined that the Actual Costs of the Authorized Improvements to be financed
with the Bonds shall be allocated to the Assessed Property by spreading the entire Assessment
across the Parcels based on the estimated Equivalent Units.
For purposes of this Service and Assessment Plan, the Town Council has determined that the
Authorized Improvement Costs shall be allocated to the Assessed Property in each Improvement
Area spreading the entire Assessment across the Parcels of Assessed Property in each
Improvement Area on the basis of the Direct Improvement Costs and Common Improvement
Costs excluding estimated right-of–way costs, as allocated to each Improvement Area based on
the ratio of the Direct Improvement Costs of each Improvement Area, and that such method of
allocation will result in the imposition of equal shares of the Authorized Improvement Costs to
Parcels similarly benefited. Table D-5 below shows the allocation of the Common Improvement

For purposes of this Service and Assessment Plan, the Town Council has determined that the
Assessment Part A allocated to the Assessed Property in each Improvement Area based on the
above calculated Assessment allocation ratio is spread to each Land Use Class on the basis of the
estimated Equivalent Units as calculated for each Land Use Class in each Improvement Area.
The estimated Equivalent Units will be calculated based on the relative average construction cost
per unit of each Land Use Class as shown herein. The average construction cost for each Land
Use Class in each Improvement Area is calculated based on the estimated average square feet of
each unit of residential Land Use Class or 1,000 square feet of commercial Land Use Class, as
applicable, and the estimated average construction cost per square foot of each Land Use Class.
Upon subsequent divisions of any Parcel, the Assessment applicable to it will then be
apportioned pro rata based on the Equivalent Units of each newly created Parcel.
Equivalent Units – Improvement Area #1
Having taken into consideration the matters described above, the Town Council has determined
that allocating the Assessments among Parcels based on estimated average construction cost per
unit is best accomplished by creating classifications of benefited Parcels in each Improvement
Area based on the “Land Use Class” defined above. These classifications representing the
estimated average construction cost per unit relative to the highest estimated average
construction cost per unit of Land Use Class 1 in Improvement Area #1 are set forth in Table D-6
below. The total Assessment Part A allocated to Improvement Area #1 is spread to each Land
DRAFT
D - 6 v6.2
Use type in Improvement Area #1 on the basis of the estimated average construction cost for
each Land Use Class. This is accomplished by giving each Land Use Class in Improvement
Area #1 an Equivalent Unit factor. Equivalent Units are the ratio of the estimated average value
at build-out within each Land Use Class, setting the Equivalent Unit factor for Land Use Class 1
in Improvement Area #1 to 1.0. The Equivalent Unit factor for Land Use Class 2 is calculated to
be 0.62 ($468,350 ÷ $756,210 = 0.62). The Equivalent Unit factor for each of the remaining
Land Use Classes in Improvement Area #1 is calculated accordingly and shown in Table D-6.

Bonds and the Reimbursement Agreement for Improvement Project A, which represents the total
DRAFT
D - 9 v6.2
Assessment Part A to be allocated on all Parcels within the PID, is $29,575,000. As shown in
Table D-5 above, the Assessment Part A allocation ratio for Improvement Area #1, Improvement
Area #2 and Improvement Area #3 are 64.5%, 19.0% and 16.4%, respectively. As a result, the
total Assessment Part A allocated to Improvement Area #1 is calculated to be $19,087,620.54
($29,575,000 × 64.5% = $19,087,620.54), the total Assessment Part A allocated to Improvement
Area #2 is calculated to be $5,622,857.55 ($29,575,000 × 19.0% = $5,622,857.55) and the total
Assessment Part A allocated to Improvement Area #3 is calculated to be $4,864,521.90
($29,575,000 × 16.4% = $4,864,521.90).
Improvement Area #1
As described above, the total amount of Assessment Part A allocated to Improvement Area #1 is
$19,087,620.54. As shown in Table D-7 above, there are a total of 324.63 estimated Equivalent
Units in Improvement Area #1 of the PID, resulting in an Assessment Part A per Equivalent Unit
of $58,797.94 ($19,087,621 ÷ 324.63 = $58,797.94).
The Assessment Part A for each Parcel in Improvement Area #1 is calculated as the product of
(i) $58,797.94 multiplied by (ii) the applicable Equivalent Unit value for each Land Use Class to
be developed on each Parcel. For example, the Assessment Part A for a Land Use Class 1
(Condo Residential – more than 3,600 square feet) dwelling unit is $58,797.94 (i.e. $58,797.94 ×
1.00). A Lot to be developed with a single dwelling unit in Land Use Class 1 would, therefore,
have an Assessment of $58,797.94.

The Assessment Part A for each Parcel in Improvement Area #2 is calculated as the product of
(i) $63,349.00 multiplied by (ii) the applicable Equivalent Unit value for each Land Use Class to
be developed on each Parcel. For example, the Assessment Part A for a Land Use Class 4 (Villa
West – more than 3,600 square feet) dwelling unit is $63,349.00 (i.e. $63,349.00 × 1.00). A Lot
to be developed with a single dwelling unit in Land Use Class 4 would therefore have an
Assessment of $63,349.00.
Table D-13 below sets forth the Assessment Part A per unit for each of the Land Use Classes in
Improvement Area #2.

Improvement Area #3
As described above, the total amount of Assessment Part A allocated to Improvement Area #3 is
$4,864,521.90. As shown in Table D-11 above, there are a total of 56.44 estimated Equivalent
Units in Improvement Area #3 of the PID, resulting in an Assessment Part A per Equivalent Unit
of $86,189.26 ($4,864,521.90 ÷ 56.44 = $86,189.26).
The Assessment Part A for each Parcel in Improvement Area #3 is calculated as the product of
(i) $86,189.26 multiplied by (ii) the applicable Equivalent Unit value for each Land Use Class to
be developed on each Parcel. For example, the Assessment Part A for a Land Use Class 7 (Villa
East – more than 3,600 square feet) dwelling unit is $86,189.26 (i.e. $86,189.26 × 1.00). A Lot
to be developed with a single dwelling unit in Land Use Class 7 would therefore have an
Assessment of $86,189.26.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY (INCLUDING APPLICABLE ORGANIZATIONAL HISTORY )
Previously, this property (located at the northeast corner of FM 1938 (Davis Blvd) and Solana
Boulevard) was zoned for office and retail uses. In April 2013, after much public input and
meetings, the Town Council, with a unanimous recommendation from the Planning & Zoning
Commission, approved a request by the owner to amend the zoning in this PD1-2 zoning district.
Also in April 2013, prior to consideration of this zoning change request, the land use plan
component of the Town’s Comprehensive Plan was amended to provide for the uses requested in
the zoning change request for this property.
Page 2 of 3
The amended zoning adds certain residential and entertainment uses in order to allow
development of a mixed use Planned Development on this tract. The zoning ordinance, as
amended, is intended to achieve a design that emulates a European style village wit h a Spanish
architectural theme. The development’s name is Entrada. Following those steps, the Developer
had a preliminary plat approved for Entrada. Also approved for Entrada was a Development
Plan (i.e. a master site plan), and a site plan for one lot with a building elevation for the building
to be built on that lot (where a sales information center is to be located on the west side of
Entrada near FM1938).
During the re-zoning approval process it was pointed out by Town Staff, as well as discussed by
Council, that if the zoning request was approved, the developer intended to submit to the Town a
petition to create a Public Improvement District (PID) to fund the construction of the public
infrastructure for this development. Further, in the Economic Development with the developer
of Entrada, the Town agreed to consider creating a PID for this purpose. This Economic
Development Agreement also was approved by the Town Council in April 2013. The owner
submitted a petition to the Town to create a PID on this tract in October 2013.
This Proposed PID was specifically discussed at several Council workshops (October 28th,
November 11th, and December 9, 2013 as well as January 27th, February 24th, March 24th, and
May 19, 2014 workshops plus discussed as a part of Entrada updates as a standing item at other
Council workshops). During much this entire time t he Town Staff, along with our PID
consultants, have been reviewing various iterations of a draft Appraisal, Preliminary Official
Statement (POS), and Service and Assessment Plan (SAP) since the petition to establish this PID
was submitted by the owner of this tract.
After the December 9, 2013 Council Workshop, it was determined that, due to IRS regulations
related to previous issuance of bank qualified (BQ) debt by the Town, modifications to the
approach previously discussed with Council for issuance of PID bonds would need to be
modified. Options of splitting the bond issuance, as well as using a conduit issuer for one larger
issue were explored. The conduit issuer option, while allowed in other states, is not something
the Texas Attorney General’s Office would provide a preliminary approval.
The developer’s team discussed this at the Town Council’s January 27, 2014 workshop. The
developer requested that, while waiting to see which path was best for PID bond issuance, it
would be prudent to go ahead and establish the PID on this site. The Council approved the
resolution to begin the public notification process for a public hearing on creating the PID
for the petitioned property at its January 27, 2014 regular Meeting. Following a public
hearing (no one spoke in opposition), this Public Improvement District was approved to be
created by the Town Council at its February 24, 2014 Regular Meeting.
The process continued on with a May 19, 2014 date targeted for first PID bond issuance.
Eventually, prior to this May 19, 2014 date, the Developer determined that it would be best to
delay bond issuance until 2015 when the BQ issue was no longer a factor. This eliminated the
need to split the first issue into two issues over 2 years and simply issue a larger initial bond
amount (as they had initially intended before the BQ issue surfaced). Further, the Entrada PID
creation was delayed by the assignment of the Entrada agreements to Marquis Construction in
July 2014. But, these agreements were subsequently reassigned by the Council back to the
original Developer (Mehrdad Moayedi) on August 25, 2014 when the property did not close. It
Page 3 of 3
should be noted that the PID document review process had to be halted during the time this
assignment was under consideration as there was no purpose in working on PID documents until
Staff knew for certain who was going to conduct the Entrada project.
At the August 25, 2014 Council Workshop, having been reassigned the Entrada Economic
Development and Developer Agreements, Developer Mehrdad Moayedi assured the Council of
his commitment to the Entrada development and that he planned on proceeding with the PID
bond issuance target ing issuance in January 2015. A new calendar was prepared with Town
Staff and its consultants resuming work with the Developer’s PID team on PID documents. That
process has been in motion since that time per the calendar attached to this agenda memo.
At the Council’s December 15, 2014 meeting the Council discussed the remaining PID bond
issuance calendar. The Town Council adopted a resolution approving the Preliminary Official
Statement (POS) for $26,175,000 in PID Bonds as well as the distribution of this POS for the
planned sale and issuance of these bonds to construct certain authorized infrastructure
improvements in the Solana Improvement District (i.e. Entrada).
At this same meeting the Council also adopted a resolution determining the costs of certain
authorized improvements to be financed by the Solana Pubic Improvement District (i.e. Entrada)
as well as approving a Preliminary Service Plan and Assessment Plan (including a Proposed
Assessment Roll). This resolution also directed the filing of the Proposed Assessment Roll with
the Town Secretary, and called a special meeting and Noticing a Public Hearing on January 15,
2015 to consider levying assessment on property within the Solana Public Improvement District.
RECOMMENDATION

Inspector shall (i) approve and execute the Certification for Payment and forward the same to the
Town Representative for approval and delivery to the Trustee for payment to the Developer in
accordance with Section 5.03 hereof or (ii) in the event the Inspector disapproves the Certification
for Payment, give written notification to the Developer of the Inspector’s disapproval, in whole or
in part, of such Certification for Payment, specifying the reasons for such disapproval and the
additional requirements to be satisfied for approval of such Certification for Payment. If a
Certification for Payment seeking reimbursement is approved only in part, the Inspector shall
specify the extent to which the Certification for Payment is approved and shall deliver such
partially approved Certification for Payment to the Town for approval and delivery to the
Developer in accordance with Section 5.03 hereof, and such approved amount shall be processed
for payment under Section 5.03 notwithstanding such partial denial.
(c) If the Inspector fails to act with respect to a Certification for Payment within the
time period herein provided, the Developer shall submit the Certification for Payment to the Town
Representative for approval. Within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of any Certification for
Payment, the Town Representative shall approve or deny the Certification for Payment and
provide notice to the Administrator and Developer. Upon approval of a Certification for Payment,
the approval shall be forwarded by the Town to the Trustee for payment and delivery to the
Developer in accordance with Section 5.03 hereof. The approval of the Certification for Payment
by the Town Representative shall constitute a representation by the Town Representative to the
Trustee of the Developer’s compliance therein. Pursuant to the terms of Section 5.03 and the
Indenture, the Trustee shall make a payment to the Developer, or pursuant to the Developer’s
directions, of an approved Certification for Payment.
(d) If the Town Representative denies a Certification for Payment or fails to act within
ten (10) Business Days of receipt thereof, the denial or failure to act may be appealed to the Town
Council for approval of the Certification for Payment within 30 days of being denied or the

Payment to the Trustee for payment in accordance with the applicable Indenture.
Section 5.03. Payment for Authorized Improvements.
SOLANA PUBLIC IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT PAGE 11 OF 31
CONSTRUCTION, FUNDING, AND ACQUISITION AGREEMENT
(a) Upon receipt of a reviewed and approved Certification for Payment, the Trustee
shall make payment from the applicable Improvement Account of the Project Fund as designated
in the Certification for Payment.
(b) Approved Certifications for Payment that await reimbursement may accrue interest
at the rate provided for in the SAP, and as provided for by Texas Local Government Code Section
372.018, which interest shall also be deposited into the Project Fund upon collection and be
available for disbursement to pay approved but unpaid Certifications for Payment. If the Future
Bonds are issued, all outstanding Certifications for Payment that have been approved, if any, but
not yet paid in full, shall be paid in accordance with the Reimbursement Agreement and the
applicable Indenture from Assessments or the proceeds (after payment of costs of issuance,
including the costs paid or incurred by the Town) of such Future Bonds available for such payment.
(c) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, when payment is made,
the Trustee shall make payment to the party identified in an approved Certification for Payment,
out of available funds in the Project Fund. If an unconditional lien release related to the items
referenced in the Certification for Payment is attached to such Certification for Payment, the
Trustee shall make such payment to the Developer or any permitted assignee of the Developer. In
the event the Developer provides a general contractor’s or supplier of materials unconditional lien
release for a portion of the work covered by a Certification for Payment, the Trustee will make
such payment directly to the Developer or any permitted assignee of the Developer to the extent
of such lien release.
(d) Withholding Payments.
Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to prohibit the Developer or the Town from
contesting in good faith the validity or amount of any mechanics or materialman’s lien and/or
judgment nor limit the remedies available to the Developer or the Town with respect thereto so
long as such delay in performance shall not subject the Authorized Improvement to foreclosure,
forfeiture, or sale. In the event that any such lien and/or judgment with respect to an Authorized
Improvement is contested, the Developer shall be required to post or cause the delivery of a surety
bond in an amount determined by the Town.
ARTICLE VI
OWNERSHIP AND TRANSFER OF IMPROVEMENT
Section 6.01. Conveyance of Authorized Improvements.
(a) Prior to conveyance of an Authorized Improvement to the Town, the Inspector shall
conduct a review in order to confirm that the work with respect to such Authorized Improvement
was completed in accordance with all applicable governmental laws, rules and regulations and
applicable Plans therefor and with the terms of this Agreement, and to verify and approve the
Actual Costs of such Authorized Improvement.
SOLANA PUBLIC IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT PAGE 12 OF 31
CONSTRUCTION, FUNDING, AND ACQUISITION AGREEMENT
(b) Except as provided in Section 5.02 above, upon approval by the Inspector, and as a
condition to the acceptance of an Authorized Improvement by the Town, the Developer shall
deliver to the Town any and all documents necessary to vest in the Town all right, title, and interest
in and to such Authorized Improvement, free and clear of all liens, leasehold interests, and
encumbrances, including without limitation affidavits of lien waivers.
(c) The Developer agrees to provide to the Inspector, the Administrator and the Town
all invoices, bills of sale and other documentation reasonably requested to evidence the Actual
Costs of the Authorized Improvements.
(d) Unless otherwise agreed to by the Town, the Developer shall obtain and file, and
provide to the Town, a maintenance bond for each Authorized Improvement with a term of
coverage of at least two (2) years from the date of acceptance of the Authorized Improvement by
the Town in form and issued by surety companies satisfactory to the Town or as otherwise required
by law with respect to the Authorized Improvement; provided a maintenance bond may provide
coverage for one or more Authorized Improvements.
(e) The Developer acknowledges that any liens incurred with respect to the Authorized
Improvements shall be solely the responsibility of the Developer or any authorized assignee of the
Developer. Such limitation shall not prohibit Developer from granting a lien on any property
within the District that is owned by Developer, provided that any such lien shall be subordinate to
any lien securing the payment of Assessments.
Section 6.02. Authorized Improvement Constructed on Town Land or Developer Land. If
the Authorized Improvement is on land owned by the Town, the Town hereby grants to the
Developer a license to enter upon such land for purposes related to construction (and maintenance
pending acquisition and acceptance) of the Authorized Improvement. The provisions for
inspection and acceptance of such Authorized Improvement otherwise provided herein shall apply.
Section 6.03. Maintenance of the Authorized Improvements. Within five days of the
Closing Date of the Bonds, the Developer agrees to deposit $200,000.00 into a separate escrow
account of the Town for the purpose of providing funds for the Town to upkeep the District should
the POA, as defined herein, fail in its responsibilities listed below (the “Developer Maintenance
Deposit”). The Developer Maintenance Deposit is intended to temporarily provide funds for the
Town to upkeep the District as the Town prepares to adjust the Maintenance Assessments as
detailed further below.
The Property Owner’s Association (“POA”) will be responsible for the operation and
maintenance of the road improvements in the District including the maintenance of the public
rights-of-way and other public access easements. The POA shall charge a fee to its property owners
on an annual basis, and shall be responsible for repair, landscaping, trash removal, street light
replacement, painting, striping of roadways, and other maintenance and repairs, in order to keep
the District in a state of cleanliness and full repair as required by the Town (the “POA
SOLANA PUBLIC IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT PAGE 13 OF 31
CONSTRUCTION, FUNDING, AND ACQUISITION AGREEMENT
Responsibilities”). It is intended that the revenues from the POA fee shall be sufficient to cover
the vast majority of the costs associated with the POA Responsibilities. There shall also be an
assessment and a collection of assessments for such purposes (the “Maintenance Assessments”) in
accordance with the SAP. It is intended that the Maintenance Assessments will initially be a small
proportion of the revenues received from the POA fees, but may be increased in the event that the
POA fails to operate and maintain the applicable Authorized Improvements in a manner consistent
with the Town’s standards for maintenance of similar public improvements throughout the Town.
On a quarterly basis, the Town shall review the state of the applicable Authorized
Improvements in the District, and provide a written report on the state of repair and cleanliness to
the POA. If the Town, in its review, finds the District does not meet Town standards, then the
Town shall detail the specific instances of failure and shall promptly forward such letter to the
POA. Upon receipt of the written notice, the POA shall have thirty (30) days (the “Correction
Period”) to address the specific failure(s).
If the POA lacks the funds to address the specific failure(s), the Town may, after the
Correction Period, send written notice to the Administrator of its intention to remove funds
sufficient to correct the failure(s) from the Developer Maintenance Deposit. The Administrator
shall immediately forward the written notice to the Trustee, who shall withdraw funds from such
funds or accounts. These funds shall be used solely to correct the specific instances of failure, as
listed in the quarterly report. The Town shall return any unused monies back to the fund or account,
and notify the Administrator and Trustee of the amount spent to rectify the failures. The total such
amounts spent in a given year plus related administrative costs may be added to the annual
Maintenance Assessment for the following year, in order to replenish the withdrawals.

(k) Financial Resources. The Developer represents and warrants that it has the

NOW THEREFORE, FOR VALUABLE CONSIDERATION THE RECEIPT AND
ADEQUACY OF WHICH ARE ACKNOWLEDGED, THE PARTIES AGREE AS FOLLOWS:
1. The recitals in the “WHEREAS” clauses of this Reimbursement Agreement are true
and correct, create obligations of the Parties, and are incorporated as part of this
Reimbursement Agreement for all purposes.
2. The Town shall cause to be deposited into the Pledged Revenue Fund all Assessment
Revenues collected (excluding the portion of the Assessment Revenues and Annual
Installments allocated to the payment of Administrative Expenses and Delinquent
Collection Costs, which shall be deposited to the Administrative Fund) as provided in
the Series 2015 Indenture.
3. The Developer shall make an initial deposit of $_______ to the Developer
Improvement Account of the Project Fund (the “Developer Initial Deposit”) on the
Closing Date (as defined in the Series 2015 Indenture). Project A Improvements Costs
shall be paid first from the Developer Improvement Account of the Project Fund up to
the amount of such Developer Initial Deposit as provided in the Series 2015 Indenture
and the Construction Funding Agreement. After the Developer Initial Deposit has been
disbursed from the Developer Improvement Account of the Project Fund in accordance
with the terms of the Series 2015 Indenture and the Construction Funding Agreement,
the Project A Improvements Costs shall be paid from the Improvement Project A
Improvement Account of the Project Fund as provided in the Indenture and the
Construction Funding Agreement. If after the Developer Initial Deposit has been
disbursed from the Developer Improvement Account of the Project Fund, the amounts
in the Improvement Project A Improvement Account of the Project Fund are
insufficient to pay the Project A Improvements Costs, the Developer shall make one or
more additional deposits to the Developer Improvement Account of the Project Fund
for the payment of the Costs of the Improvement Project A improvements.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the sum of the Developer Initial
Deposit plus any additional deposits to the Developer Improvement Account of the
Project Fund required hereunder shall never exceed the Reimbursement Amount
(defined below).
4. Strictly subject to the terms, conditions, and requirements and solely from the revenues
herein provided, the Town agrees to pay to the Developer, and the Developer shall be
entitled to receive from the Town, the amount equal to the Project A Improvements
Costs paid from the Developer Improvement Account of the Project Fund (the
“Reimbursement Amount”) plus interest on the unpaid balance in accordance with the
terms of this Reimbursement Agreement until January 15, 2045 (the “Maturity Date”);
provided, however, the Reimbursement Amount shall not exceed
________________________. The Reimbursement Amount shall be payable to the
Developer solely from: (i) the Assessment Revenues deposited in the Developer
Reimbursement Pledged Revenue Account of the Pledged Revenue Fund and
transferred to the Reimbursement Fund as provided in Article VI of the Series 2015
Indenture; (ii) the net proceeds (after payment of costs of issuance, including the costs
paid or incurred by the Town) of one or more series of bonds (the “Future Project A
Improvement Bonds”) issued by the Town and secured by the Assessment Revenues;
or (iii) a combination of items (i) and (ii). The Project A Improvements Costs are
authorized by the Act, were approved by the Town Council and represent the total costs
to be assessed against the Project A Improvements Assessed Property for the
Improvement Project A improvements which, upon completion, will be dedicated in
fee and accepted by the Town, in the Town's sole discretion. The unpaid
Reimbursement Amount shall bear simple interest per annum at the rate of (x) ____ %
for years one through five and (y) ____% for years six through thirty or until Future
Project A Improvement Bonds are sold, if ever. If any portion of the Reimbursement
Amount remains unpaid after the Town has elected to sell Future Project A
Improvement Bonds, the interest rate paid to the Developer shall be the same as the
interest rate on the Future Project A Improvement Bonds. The interest rate has been
approved by the Town Council and is authorized by the Act.
5. The Reimbursement Amount, plus interest as described above (collectively, the
“Unpaid Balance”), is payable to the Developer and secured under this Reimbursement
Agreement solely as described in paragraph 4 above. No other Town funds, revenue,
taxes, income, or property shall be used even if the Unpaid Balance is not paid in full
at the Maturity Date. Notwithstanding its collection efforts, if the Town fails to receive
all or any part of the Assessments, such failure and inability shall not constitute a
Failure or Default by the Town under this Reimbursement Agreement. This
Reimbursement Agreement and/or any Future Project A Improvement Bonds shall
never give rise to or create:
a. a charge against the general credit or taxing powers of the Town or any other
taxing unit; or
b. a debt or other obligation of the Town payable from any source of revenue,
taxes, income, or properties of the Town other than from the Developer
Improvement Account of the Project Fund, the Developer Reimbursement
Pledged Revenue Account of the Pledged Revenue Fund or the Reimbursement
Fund as provided in the Series 2015 Indenture or from the net proceeds of any
Future Project A Improvement Bonds; or
c. any obligation of the Town to issue Future Project A Improvement Bonds or
other obligations; or
d. any obligation of the Town to pay any amount due or to become due under this
Reimbursement Agreement other than from (i) the Developer Improvement
Account of the Project Fund, the Developer Reimbursement Pledged Revenue
Account of the Pledged Revenue Fund or the Reimbursement Fund as provided
in the Series 2015 Indenture and this Reimbursement Agreement, or (ii) from
the net proceeds of any Future Project A Improvement Bonds.
6. If Future Project A Improvement Bonds are issued, the net proceeds of such Future
Project A Improvement Bonds shall be used, from time to time, first to pay costs of
issuing any Future Project A Improvement Bonds, then to pay the Unpaid Balance due
the Developer for Project A Improvements Costs already incurred and for which the
Developer has received an approved Certification for Payment under the Construction
Funding Agreement and then to pay all or any portion of any Project A Improvements
Costs. If, after application of the net proceeds of such Future Project A Improvement
Bonds, any Project A Improvements Costs remain unpaid, then the Developer shall pay
such cost. If, after application of the net proceeds of any Future Project A Improvement
Bonds, the Unpaid Balance due the Developer remains unpaid, all payments toward the
Unpaid Balance due the Developer shall be paid from (i) amounts transferred to the
Reimbursement Fund from the Developer Reimbursement Pledged Revenue Account
of the Pledged Revenue Fund under the Series 2015 Indenture and (ii) amounts
deposited into any funds created for such purpose under any indenture relating to any
Future Project A Improvement Bonds. Once the principal amount of all Future Project
A Improvement Bonds plus all payments paid to the Developer under this
Reimbursement Agreement equal the Unpaid Balance, this Reimbursement Agreement
shall terminate.
7. If on the Maturity Date, after application of the net proceeds of any Future Project A
Improvement Bonds, any portion of the Unpaid Balance remains unpaid, such Unpaid
Balance shall be canceled and for all purposes this Reimbursement Agreement shall be
deemed to have been conclusively and irrevocably PAID IN FULL, and such Unpaid
Balance shall no longer be deemed to be payable; provided, however, if any
Assessment Revenues remain due and payable and are uncollected on the Maturity
Date, such Assessment Revenues, when, as, and if collected after the Maturity Date,
shall first be applied to any amounts due in connection with outstanding Series 2015
Bonds and outstanding Future Project A Improvement Bonds; and, then paid to the
Developer and applied against the Unpaid Balance.
8. The Developer has the right to convey, transfer, assign, mortgage, pledge, or otherwise
encumber, in whole or in part without the consent of (but with written notice to) the
Town, the Developer’s right, title, or interest under this Reimbursement Agreement
including, but not limited to, any right, title, or interest of the Developer in and to
payment of the Unpaid Balance, whether such payment is from (i) amounts transferred
to the Reimbursement Fund from the Developer Reimbursement Pledged Revenue
Account of the Pledged Revenue Fund under the Series 2015 Indenture, or (ii) net
proceeds of any Future Project A Improvement Bonds (any of the foregoing, a
“Transfer,” and the person or entity to whom the Transfer is made, a “Transferee”).
Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, no Transfer shall be effective until five days
after notice of the Transfer is received by the Town, including for each Transferee the
information required by Section 16. The Town may rely on any notice of a Transfer
received from the Developer without obligation to investigate or confirm the validity
or occurrence of such Transfer. The Developer waives all rights or claims against the
Town for any such funds provided to a third party as a result of a Transfer for which
the Town has received notice, and the Developer’s sole remedy shall be to seek the
funds directly from the third party.
9. The inability or failure of the Town to issue Future Project A Improvement Bonds shall
not constitute a Failure or Default under this Reimbursement Agreement.
10. The obligations of the Town under this Reimbursement Agreement are non-recourse
and payable only from (i) amounts transferred to the Reimbursement Fund from the
Developer Reimbursement Pledged Revenue Account of the Pledged Revenue Fund
under the Series 2015 Indenture, or (ii) net proceeds of any Future Project A
Improvement Bonds; and such obligations do not create a debt or other obligation
payable from any other Town revenues, taxes, income, or property. None of the Town
or any of its elected or appointed officials or any of its officers or employees shall incur
any liability hereunder to the Developer or any other party in their individual capacities
by reason of this Reimbursement Agreement or their acts or omissions under this
Reimbursement Agreement.
11. Following the Town’s inspection and approval of the Improvement Project A
improvements, in accordance with the provisions of the Construction Funding
Agreement and until Future Project A Improvement Bonds are issued, if ever, there
will be no conditions or defenses to the obligation of the Town to use amounts
transferred to the Reimbursement Fund from the Developer Reimbursement Pledged
Revenue Account of the Pledged Revenue Fund under the Series 2015 Indenture to pay
the Unpaid Balance.
12. Following the Town’s inspection and approval of the Improvement Project A
improvements and if Future Project A Improvement Bonds are issued, there will be no
conditions or defenses to the obligation of the Town to use the net proceeds of any
Future Project A Improvement Bonds to pay the Unpaid Balance and to pledge the
Assessment Revenues as security for such Future Project A Improvement Bonds, other
than the Town's right to pay costs of issuance of such Future Project A Improvement
Bonds and/or other costs incurred by the Town relating to the Improvement Project A
improvements.
13. Nothing in this Reimbursement Agreement is intended to constitute a waiver by the
Town of any remedy the Town may otherwise have outside this Reimbursement
Agreement against any person or entity involved in the design, construction, or
installation of the Improvement Project A improvements.
14. The Town will consider issuing one or more series of Future Project A Improvement
Bonds to pay the Unpaid Balance; however, the Parties covenant and acknowledge that
approval of the issuance of any Future Project A Improvement Bonds by the Town
Council is a governmental function within the Town’s sole discretion and is further
subject to the conditions contained in the Construction Funding Agreement.
15. This Reimbursement Agreement is being executed and delivered, and is intended to be
performed in the State of Texas. Except to the extent that the laws of the United States
may apply to the terms hereof, the substantive laws of the State of Texas shall govern
the validity, construction, enforcement, and interpretation of this Reimbursement
Agreement. In the event of a dispute involving this Reimbursement Agreement, venue
for such dispute shall lie in any court of competent jurisdiction in Tarrant County,
Texas.
16. Any notice required or contemplated by this Reimbursement Agreement shall be
deemed given at the addresses shown below: (i) when delivered by a national company
such as FedEx or UPS with evidence of delivery signed by any person at the delivery
address regardless of whether such person was the named addressee; or (ii) 72 hours
after the notice was deposited with the United States Postal Service, Certified Mail,

notice of such change in accordance with this section.

holding shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions, and the remainder of
this Reimbursement Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.
18. Failure; Default; Remedies.
a. If either Party fails to perform an obligation imposed on such Party by this
Reimbursement Agreement (a “Failure”) and such Failure is not cured after
written notice and the expiration of the cure periods provided in this section,
then such Failure shall constitute a “Default.” Upon the occurrence of a Failure
by a non-performing Party, the other Party shall notify the non-performing
Party and all Transferees of the non-performing Party in writing specifying in
reasonable detail the nature of the Failure. The non-performing Party to whom
notice of a Failure is given shall have at least 30 days from receipt of the notice
within which to cure the Failure; however, if the Failure cannot reasonably be
cured within 30 days and the non-performing Party has diligently pursued a
cure within such 30-day period and has provided written notice to the other
Party that additional time is needed, then the cure period shall be extended for
an additional 30 day period so long as the non-performing Party is diligently
pursuing a cure. Any Transferee shall have the right, but not the obligation, to
cure any alleged Failure by the Developer within the same time periods that are
provided to the Developer. The election by a Transferee to cure a Failure by
the Developer shall constitute a cure by the Developer but shall not obligate the
Transferee to be bound by this Reimbursement Agreement unless the
Transferee agrees to be bound.
b. If the Developer is in Default, the Town’s sole and exclusive remedy shall be
to seek specific enforcement of this Reimbursement Agreement. No Default by
the Developer, however, shall: (1) affect the obligations of the Town to use the
amounts transferred to the Reimbursement Fund from the Developer
Reimbursement Pledged Revenue Account of the Pledged Revenue Fund under
the Series 2015 Indenture and the net proceeds of Future Project A
Improvement Bonds as provided in Sections 10 and 11 of this Reimbursement
Agreement; or (2) entitle the Town to terminate this Reimbursement
Agreement.
c. If the Town is in Default, the Developer’s sole and exclusive remedies shall be
to: (1) seek a writ of mandamus to compel performance by the Town; (2) seek
specific enforcement of this Reimbursement Agreement; or (3) terminate this
Reimbursement Agreement.
19. In the event of any conflict between this Reimbursement Agreement and any other
agreement between the Town and the Developer directly or indirectly related to the
amounts transferred to the Reimbursement Fund from the Developer Reimbursement
Pledged Revenue Fund under the Series 2015 Indenture and the net proceeds of Future
Project A Improvement Bonds, the Parties intend that the provisions and intent of this
Reimbursement Agreement shall control.
20. The failure by a Party to insist upon the strict performance of any provision of this
Reimbursement Agreement by the other Party, or the failure by a Party to exercise its
rights upon a Default by the other Party shall not constitute a waiver of such Party’s
right to insist and demand strict compliance by such other Party with the provisions of
this Reimbursement Agreement.
21. The Town does not waive or surrender any of its governmental powers, immunities, or
rights except to the extent permitted by law and necessary to allow the Developer to
enforce its remedies under this Reimbursement Agreement.
22. Nothing in this Reimbursement Agreement, expressed or implied, is intended to or shall
be construed to confer upon or to give to any person or entity other than the Town and
the Developer any rights, remedies, or claims under or by reason of this Reimbursement
Agreement, and all covenants, conditions, promises, and agreements in this
Reimbursement Agreement shall be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the Town and
the Developer.
23. This Reimbursement Agreement may be amended only by written agreement of the
Parties.
24. This Reimbursement Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall
be deemed an original.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Parties have caused this Reimbursement Agreement to be

shall be owned by the Town as constructed and Landowner will execute such conveyances and/or
dedications of public rights of way and easements as may be reasonably required to evidence such
ownership, as generally described on the current plats of the property within the District.
B. Grant of Easement and License, Construction of Authorized Improvements.
(i) Any subsequent owner of the Landowner’s Parcel shall, upon the request of
the Town or Developer, grant and convey to the Town or Developer and its contractors,

Improvements cause such owner of the Landowner’s Parcel to be indemnified and/or
named as an additional insured under liability insurance reasonably acceptable to such
owner of the Landowner’s Parcel. The right to use and enjoy any easement and license
provided above shall continue until the construction of the Authorized Improvements is
complete; provided, however, any such license or easement shall automatically terminate
upon the recording of the final plat for the Landowner’s Parcel in the real property records
of Tarrant County, Texas.
(ii) Landowner hereby agrees that any right or condition imposed by the
Development Agreement, or other agreement, with respect to the Assessment has been
satisfied, and that Landowner shall not have any rights or remedies against the Town under
the Development Agreement, or under any law or principles of equity concerning the

DECLARATION OF COVENANTS, CONDITIONS AND RESTRICTIONS
This DECLARATION OF COVENANTS, CONDITIONS AND RESTRICTIONS (as
it may be amended from time to time, this “Declaration”) is made as of _____________________
by Maguire Partners – Solana Land, L.P. a Texas limited partnership (the “Landowner”).

A. The Landowner holds record title to that portion of the real property located in Tarrant
County, Texas, which is described in the attached Exhibit A (the “Landowner’s Parcel”).
B. The Town Council of the Town of Westlake (the “Town Council”) upon a petition
requesting the establishment of a public improvement district covering the property within
the District to be known as the Solana Public Improvement District (the “District”) by the
then current owners of more than 50% of the appraised value of the taxable real property
and more than 50% of the area of all taxable real property within the area requested to be
included in the District created such District, in accordance with the Public Improvement
District Assessment Act, Chapter 372, Texas Local Government Code, as amended (the
“PID Act”).
C. The Town Council has adopted an assessment ordinance to levy assessments for the
Authorized Improvements (including all exhibits and attachments thereto, the “Assessment
Ordinance”) and the Service and Assessment Plan included as an exhibit to the Assessment
Ordinance (as amended from time to time, the “Service and Assessment Plan”), and has
levied the assessments (as amended from time to time, the “Assessments”) on property in
the District.
D. The statutory notification required by Texas Property Code, Section 5.014, as amended, to
be provided by the seller of residential property that is located in a public improvement
district established under Chapter 372 of the Texas Local Government Code, as amended,
to the purchaser, is incorporated into these Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions.
DECLARATIONS:
NOW, THEREFORE, the Landowner hereby declares that the Landowner’s Parcel is and
shall be subject to, and hereby imposes on the Landowner’s Parcel, the following covenants,
conditions and restrictions:
1. Acceptance and Approval of Assessments and Lien on Property:
(a) Landowner accepts each Assessment levied on the Landowner’s Parcel owned by
such Landowner.
(b) The Assessment (including any reassessment, the expense of collection, and
reasonable attorney’s fees, if incurred) is (a) a first and prior lien (the “Assessment
Lien”) against the property assessed, superior to all other liens or claims except for
liens or claims for state, county, school district or municipality ad valorem property
‐16‐
taxes whether now or hereafter payable, and (b) a personal liability of and charge
against the owners of the property to the extent of their ownership regardless of
whether the owners are named. The Assessment Lien is effective from the date of
the Assessment Ordinance until the Assessments are paid and may be enforced by
the Town in the same manner as an ad valorem property tax levied against real
property that may be enforced by the Town. The owner of any assessed property
may pay, at any time, the entire Assessment levied against any such property.
Foreclosure of an ad valorem property tax lien on property within the District will
not extinguish the Assessment or any unpaid but not yet due annual installments of
the Assessment, and will not accelerate the due date for any unpaid and not yet due
annual installments of the Assessment.
It is the clear intention of all parties to these Declarations of Covenants, Conditions
and Restrictions, that the Assessments, including any annual installments of the
Assessments (as such annual installments may be adjusted, decreased or extended),
are covenants that run with the Landowner’s Parcel and specifically binds the
Landowner, its successors and assigns.
In the event of delinquency in the payment of any annual installment of the
Assessment, the Town is empowered to order institution of an action in district
court to foreclose the related Assessment Lien, to enforce personal liability against
the owner of the real property for the Assessment, or both. In such action the real
property subject to the delinquent Assessment may be sold at judicial foreclosure
sale for the amount of such delinquent property taxes and Assessment, plus
penalties, interest and costs of collection.
2. Landowner or any subsequent owner of the Landowner’s Parcel waives:
(a) any and all defects, irregularities, illegalities or deficiencies in the proceedings
establishing the District and levying and collecting the Assessments or the annual
installments of the Assessments;
(b) any and all notices and time periods provided by the PID Act including, but not
limited to, notice of the establishment of the District and notice of public hearings
regarding the levy of Assessments by the Town Council concerning the
Assessments;
(c) any and all defects, irregularities, illegalities or deficiencies in, or in the adoption
of, the Assessment Ordinance by the Town Council;
(d) any and all actions and defenses against the adoption or amendment of the Service
and Assessment Plan, the Town’s finding of a ‘special benefit’ pursuant to the PID
Act and the Service and Assessment Plan, and the levy of the Assessments; and
(e) any right to object to the legality of any of the Assessments or the Service and
Assessment Plan or to any of the previous proceedings connected therewith which
occurred prior to, or upon, the Town Council’s levy of the Assessments.
‐17‐
3. Amendments: This Declaration may be terminated or amended only by a document duly
executed and acknowledged by the then-current owner(s) of the Landowner’s Parcel and
the Town. No such termination or amendment shall be effective until a written instrument
setting forth the terms thereof has been executed by the parties by whom approval is
required as set forth above and recorded in the real Property Records of Tarrant County,
Texas.
4. Third Party Beneficiary: The Town is a third party beneficiary to this Declaration and
may enforce the terms hereof.

or will promptly deliver to the Trustee to be held in escrow six (6) originals of the
Agricultural Use Waiver waiving any agricultural use valuation and any right to special

(b) Authorization to File Agricultural Use Waiver.
(i) Prior to the Trustee taking any action described in subsection 4(b)(ii)
below, the Trustee shall pay past due or delinquent taxes using funds in the
Developer Property Tax Reserve Fund held under the applicable Indenture. This
payment shall be made pursuant to a request by the Town in a form similar to that
attached as Exhibit “D”. If the funds in the applicable Developer Property Tax
Reserve Fund are not sufficient to pay all past due ad valorem taxes, including any
accrued interest and penalties, then the Trustee shall notify the Developer and the
Lender of such deficiency and provide the Developer and the Lender thirty (30)
days to deliver to the Trustee the requisite amount of funds to pay all past due taxes
and restore the applicable Developer Property Tax Reserve Fund to the level
required by the Financing Agreement.
(ii) The Town, or the entity appointed by the Town to monitor and
collect delinquent taxes, shall report to the Trustee any delinquent taxes that are
secured by a lien against any portion of the Non-Redeemable Property by March
15 of each year. In the event that any taxes secured by a lien against any portion of
the Non-Redeemable Property have not been paid by March 1st following the year
for which such taxes are levied, the Trustee shall provide the Lender notice of the
deficiency and provide the Lender ten (10) days to cure said deficiency. If the
Lender fails to cure the deficiency, Trustee shall (unless otherwise instructed by
holders of not less than twenty percent (20%) of the Bonds, as defined in the
Financing Agreement, secured by the applicable Indenture then outstanding) and
the Developer hereby irrevocably authorizes the Trustee to, release the Agricultural
Use Waiver from escrow and deliver same to the Tarrant County Tax
Assessor/Collector or its successor. The Trustee shall, and the Developer further
authorizes the Trustee to, attach to the Agricultural Use Waiver a description of that
portion of the Non-Redeemable Property for which taxes are delinquent; provided,
the Trustee shall verify with the Town the descriptions of the Non-Redeemable
Property to be attached to such waiver. Any such descriptions of property shall be
provided to the Trustee by the Town, or an entity appointed by the Town for such
purpose. In the event that the Trustee receives notice that delinquent taxes and all
penalties and interest have been paid prior to Trustee’s transmittal of the
Agricultural Use Waiver to Tarrant County Tax Assessor/Collector or its successor,
then Trustee shall not transmit the Waiver of Agricultural Use to the Tarrant County
Tax Assessor/Collector and such waiver shall be returned to escrow. In the event
that the number of Agricultural Use Waivers held by Trustee is less than three (3)
and some portion of the Property is Non-Redeemable Property, the Developer
agrees to promptly execute and deliver to the Trustee, to be held in and released
from escrow as provided herein, another Agricultural Use Waiver for use with any
remaining Non-Redeemable Property owned by the Developer; provided, however,
the Trustee shall deliver to the Tarrant County Tax Assessor/Collector or its
successor an Agricultural Use Waiver with respect to the remaining Non-
Redeemable Property owned by the Developer, if the Developer does not execute
and deliver to the Trustee such additional Agricultural Waivers within thirty (30)
days of a written request by the Trustee. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein, the Lender is under no obligation to cure any deficiency.
(iii) The entity responsible for administrating the District (the “PID
Administrator”) shall be responsible for notifying the Town and, at the Town’s
direction, the Trustee of all delinquent Assessment payments by March 15 of each
year. Except as provided in Section 4(b)(iv), in the event that any Assessments
levied by the Town pursuant to the Assessment Ordinance that are secured by a lien
against any portion of the Non-Redeemable Property have not been paid by March
1st following the year for which such Assessments are levied (or ten (10) days
before such Assessments become delinquent, if earlier), the Trustee shall provide
the Lender notice of the failure to pay Assessments and provide the Lender ten (10)
days to cure such failure. If the Lender fails to cure, the Trustee shall (unless
otherwise instructed by holders of not less than fifty-one percent (51%) of the
Bonds secured by the applicable Indenture then outstanding) and the Developer
hereby irrevocably authorizes the Trustee to, release the Agricultural Use Waiver
from escrow and deliver same to the Tarrant County Tax Assessor/Collector or its
successor. The Trustee shall, and the Developer further authorizes the Trustee to,
attach to the Agricultural Use Waiver a description of that portion of the Non-
Redeemable Property for which Assessments are delinquent. Any such
descriptions of property shall be provided to the Trustee by the Town, or an entity
appointed by the Town for such purpose. In the event that the number of
Agricultural Use Waivers held by Trustee is less than three (3) and some portion of
the Property is Non- Redeemable, the Developer agrees to promptly execute and
deliver to the Trustee, to be held in and released from escrow as provided herein,
another Agricultural Use Waiver for use with any remaining Non-Redeemable
Property owned by the Developer; provided, however, the Trustee shall deliver to
the Tarrant County Tax Assessor/Collector or its successor an Agricultural Use
Waiver with respect to the remaining Non-Redeemable Property owned by the
Developer, if the Developer does not execute and deliver to the Trustee such
additional Agricultural Waivers within thirty (30) days of a written request by the
Trustee. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Lender is
under no obligation to cure the failure to pay.
(iv) If, by case law, statute or an opinion of the Attorney General of the
State of Texas it is determined that Tax Redemption Rights do not apply to the
Assessments levied on behalf of the District, then Section 4(b)(iii) shall
immediately become non-operative and non-effective upon Trustee’s receipt of
written notice of such decision, statute or opinion.

Exhibit “B”
WAIVER OF SPECIAL APPRAISAL
THE STATE OF TEXAS §
§ KNOW EVERYONE BY THESE PRESENTS:
COUNTY OF _____________ §
THAT this Waiver of Special Appraisal (this “Waiver”) is made and entered into as of the
_____ day of __________, 20___, for the benefit of the Town of Westlake, Texas (the “Town”)
and U.S. Bank National Association (as “Trustee”), by (“Landowner,” whether one or more), owner
of the property described on Schedule 1 hereto (the “Property”), which Property is located within
the Solana Public Improvement District (the “District”), a public improvement district of the Town,
pursuant to Texas Tax Code Ann. §23.20.
RECITALS
A. The Town has the right to levy special assessments on land located within the
District pursuant to a separate ordinance enacted by the Town Council of the Town, which
assessments are intended to provide for the financing of certain improvements for the benefit of the
District (the “Authorized Improvements”).
B. The purpose of the Town in selling its special assessments revenue bonds (the
“Bonds”) is to provide, among other things, financing for certain improvements to serve the District
(the “Facilities”).
C. In furtherance of this purpose, the Town has agreed to reimburse Landowner for
payments made for certain Authorized Improvements, subject to the execution and delivery by
Landowner of this Waiver.
D. Landowner acknowledges that the election by Landowner to claim agricultural use
exemptions or valuations arising under Section 34.21 of the Texas Tax Code, as amended
(collectively, the “Exemptions”), but not including any residential homestead exemption, for the
Property would be detrimental to the property valuation base and may significantly impair the
ability of the Town to meet its debt obligations for the Bonds.
WAIVER
Section 1. Waiver of Exemptions. Landowner, on behalf of itself, its successors and assigns,
(i) irrevocably waives its right to claim any of the Exemptions with respect to the Property for a
period of thirty (30) years beginning on the date this Waiver is received by the Tarrant County Tax
Assessor/Collector; (ii) authorizes the Town and/or the Trustee to file this Waiver with the Chief
Appraiser of the Tarrant County Appraisal District, or its successor, in accordance with the terms
of the Agreement Regarding Conveyance of Right of Redemption and Waiver of Agricultural
Valuation – Solana PID having an effective date of January 15, 2015; and (iii) covenants that it will
not make any claim for a special appraisal except on written authorization of the Trustee.
Landowner acknowledges that it may have the right under Article 8 of the Texas Constitution to
assert some or all of the Exemptions which it is waiving herein, and agrees that it shall be estopped
from claiming such Exemptions for so long as this Waiver shall remain in effect; provided,
however, it is expressly acknowledged and agreed by Landowner that mechanisms for single family
residences now available or to be made available by any change in Texas laws for the reduction of
ad valorem tax liability or of valuation for the purposes of ad valorem taxes or other assessments
with respect to real property, such as exemptions for homesteads, disabled veterans, and elderly
homesteads, are not included in the definition of Exemptions and are expressly allowed, to the
extent such exemptions would be otherwise available, with respect to the Property.
Section 2. Disclosures of Lienholders. Lienholder represents and warrants that is the only
lienholder on the Property.
Section 3. Reliance on Waiver. Landowner or its predecessor in interest has induced the
Town into issuing bonds based, in significant part, on the covenants hereunder and the Town has
agreed to issue such bonds in reliance upon such covenants.
Section 4. Covenants to Run with Land. The terms and provisions hereof shall be deemed
to be restrictive covenants encumbering and running with the Property and shall be binding upon
the Landowner and its successors and assigns. In particular, each successive purchaser of the
Property shall, upon purchase thereof (or any portion thereof), waive its right to claim any of the
Exemptions with respect to the Property (or such portion thereof) for so long as this Waiver shall
remain in effect.
Section 5. Enforceability. The covenants and restrictions binding the Property hereunder
shall be enforceable only by the Town, the Trustee and their respective successors and assigns.
This Waiver is for the sole benefit of the parties hereto, and of the Trustee, and no other third party
is intended to be a beneficiary of this Waiver.
Section 6. Termination. This Waiver shall continue in full force and effect until the earlier
to occur of the following: (i) thirty (30) years; or (ii) such time as the Trustee approves a revocation
in writing.
Section 7. Severability. Every provision of this Waiver is intended to be severable. In the
event any term or provision hereof is declared to be illegal or invalid for any reason whatsoever by
a court of competent jurisdiction, such illegality or invalidity shall not affect the balance of the
terms and provisions hereof, which terms and provisions shall remain binding and enforceable to
the maximum extent permitted by law, it being the intent of the parties hereto to give full force and
effect to the agreements made hereunder to the maximum extent permitted by law.
Section 8. Headings. The Section headings are included in this Waiver for convenience and
reference only, and shall not be deemed to affect the substantive provisions of this Waiver.
Section 9. Remedies. If Landowner breaches its obligations hereunder, the Trustee or the
Town (on behalf of the Trustee), in addition to all other remedies set forth herein or otherwise
available at law or in equity, shall be entitled to recover from Landowner the amount of assessments
that would have been due to the Town had Landowner complied with this Waiver. Such payment
will be due and payable, and will incur penalties and charges under the same terms as if the payment
had been an assessment obligation of Landowner to Town.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY (INCLUDING APPLICABLE ORGANIZATIONAL HISTORY )
Previously, this property (located at the northeast corner of FM 1938 (Davis Blvd) and Solana
Boulevard) was zoned for office and retail uses. In April 2013, after much public input and
meetings, the Town Council, with a unanimous recommendation from the Planning & Zoning
Commission, approved a request by the owner to amend the zoning in this PD1-2 zoning district.
Page 2 of 3
Also in April 2013, prior to consideration of this zoning change request, the land use plan
component of the Town’s Comprehensive Plan was amended to provide for the uses requested in
the zoning change request for this property.
The amended zoning adds certain residential and entertainment uses in order to allow
development of a mixed use Planned Development on this tract. The zoning ordinance, as
amended, is intended to achieve a design that emulates a European style village with a Spanish
architectural theme. The development’s name is Entrada. Following those steps, the Developer
had a preliminary plat approved for Entrada. Also approved for Entrada was a Development
Plan (i.e. a master site plan), and a site plan for one lot with a building elevation for the building
to be built on that lot (where a sales information center is to be located on the west side of
Entrada near FM1938).
During the re-zoning approval process it was pointed out by Town Staff, as well as discussed by
Council, that if the zoning request was approved, the developer intended to submit to the Town a
petition to create a Public Improvement District (PID) to fund the construction of the public
infrastructure for this development. Further, in the Economic Development with the developer
of Entrada, the Town agreed to consider creating a PID for this purpose. This Economic
Development Agreement also was approved by the Town Council in April 2013. The owner
submitted a petition to the Town to create a PID on this tract in October 2013.
This Proposed PID was specifically discussed at several Council workshops (October 28th,
November 11th, and December 9, 2013 as well as January 27th, February 24th, March 24th, and
May 19, 2014 workshops plus discussed as a part of Entrada updates as a standing item at other
Council workshops). During much this entire time t he Town Staff, along with our PID
consultants, have been reviewing various iterations of a draft Appraisal, Preliminary Official
Statement (POS), and Service and Assessment Plan (SAP) since the petition to establish this PID
was submitted by the owner of this tract.
After the December 9, 2013 Council Workshop, it was determined that, due to IRS regulations
related to previous issuance of bank qualified (BQ) debt by the Town, modifications to the
approach previously discussed with Council for issuance of PID bonds would need to be
modified. Options of splitting the bond issuance, as well as using a conduit issuer for one larger
issue were explored. The conduit issuer option, while allowed in other states, is not something
the Texas Attorney General’s Office would provide a preliminary approval.
The developer’s team discussed this at the Town Council’s January 27, 2014 workshop. The
developer requested that, while waiting to see which path was best for PID bond issuance, it
would be prudent to go ahead and establish the PID on this site. The Council approved the
resolution to begin the public notification process for a public hearing on creating the PID
for the petitioned property at its January 27, 2014 regular Meeting. Following a public
hearing (no one spoke in opposition), this Public Improvement District was approved to be
created by the Town Council at its February 24, 2014 Regular Meeting.
The process continued on with a May 19, 2014 date targeted for first PID bond issuance.
Eventually, prior to this May 19, 2014 date, the Developer determined that it would be best to
delay bond issuance until 2015 when the BQ issue was no longer a factor. This eliminated the
need to split the first issue into two issues over 2 years and simply issue a larger initial bond
amount (as they had initially intended before the BQ issue surfaced). Further, the Entrada PID
Page 3 of 3
creation was delayed by the assignment of the Entrada agreements to Marquis Construction in
July 2014. But, these agreements were subsequently reassigned by the Council back to the
original Developer (Mehrdad Moayedi) on August 25, 2014 when the property did not close. It
should be noted that the PID document review process had to be halted during the time this
assignment was under consideration as there was no purpose in working on PID documents until
Staff knew for certain who was going to conduct the Entrada project.
At the August 25, 2014 Council Workshop, having been reassigned the Entrada Economic
Development and Developer Agreements, Developer Mehrdad Moayedi assured the Council of
his commitment to the Entrada development and that he planned on proceeding with the PID
bond issuance targeting issuance in January 2015. A new calendar was prepared with Town
Staff and its consultants resuming work with the Developer’s PID team on PID documents. That
process has been in motion since that time per the calendar attached to this agenda memo.
At the Council’s December 15, 2014 meeting the Council discussed the remaining PID bond
issuance calendar. The Town Council adopted a resolution approving the Preliminary Official
Statement (POS) for $26,175,000 in PID Bonds as well as the distribution of this POS for the
planned sale and issuance of these bonds to construct certain authorized infrastructure
improvements in the Solana Improvement District (i.e. Entrada).
At this same meeting the Council also adopted a resolution determining the costs of certain
authorized improvements to be financed by the Solana Pubic Improvement District (i.e. Entrada)
as well as approving a Preliminary Service Plan and Assessment Plan (including a Proposed
Assessment Roll). This resolution also directed the filing of the Proposed Assessment Roll with
the Town Secretary, and called a special meeting and Noticing a Public Hearing on January 15,
2015 to consider levying assessment on property within the Solana Public Improvement District.
RECOMMENDATION
Consider adoption of Ordinance 743 as related to the Solana Public Improvement District (i.e.
Entrada).

Paying Agent/Registrar, in lieu of the Bond being transferred or exchanged, at the Designated
Payment/Transfer Office, or sent by United States mail, first class, postage prepaid, to the Owner
or his designee. Each transferred Bond delivered by the Paying Agent/Registrar in accordance
with this Section shall constitute an original contractual obligation of the Town and shall be
entitled to the benefits and security of this Indenture to the same extent as the Bond or Bonds in
lieu of which such transferred Bond is delivered.
(e) Each exchange Bond delivered in accordance with this Section shall constitute an
original contractual obligation of the Town and shall be entitled to the benefits and security of
this Indenture to the same extent as the Bond or Bonds in lieu of which such exchange Bond is
delivered.
(f) No service charge shall be made to the Owner for the initial registration,
subsequent transfer, or exchange for a different denomination of any of the Bonds. The Paying
Agent/Registrar, however, may require the Owner to pay a sum sufficient to cover any tax or
other governmental charge that is authorized to be imposed in connection with the registration,
transfer, or exchange of a Bond.
(g) Neither the Town nor the Paying Agent/Registrar shall be required to issue,
transfer, or exchange any Bond or portion thereof called for redemption prior to maturity within
forty-five (45) days prior to the date fixed for redemption; provided, however, such limitation
shall not be applicable to an exchange by the Owner of the uncalled principal balance of a Bond.
Section 3.8. Cancellation.
All Bonds paid or redeemed before scheduled maturity in accordance with this Indenture,
and all Bonds in lieu of which exchange Bonds or replacement Bonds are authenticated and
delivered in accordance with this Indenture, shall be cancelled, and proper records shall be made
regarding such payment, redemption, exchange, or replacement. Whenever in this Indenture
provision is made for the cancellation by the Trustee of any Bonds, the Trustee shall destroy
such Bonds and deliver a certificate of such destruction to the Town.
Section 3.9. Temporary Bonds.
(a) Following the delivery and registration of the Initial Bond and pending the
preparation of definitive Bonds, the proper officers of the Town may execute and, upon the
Town's request, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, one or more temporary Bonds that are
printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed or otherwise produced, in any denomination,
substantially of the tenor of the definitive Bonds in lieu of which they are delivered, without
coupons, and with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as
the officers of the Town executing such temporary Bonds may determine, as evidenced by their
signing of such temporary Bonds.
20
(b) Until exchanged for Bonds in definitive form, such Bonds in temporary form shall
be entitled to the benefit and security of this Indenture.
(c) The Town, without unreasonable delay, shall prepare, execute and deliver to the
Trustee the Bonds in definitive form; thereupon, upon the presentation and surrender of the Bond
or Bonds in temporary form to the Paying Agent/Registrar, the Paying Agent/Registrar shall
cancel the Bonds in temporary form and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange
therefor a Bond or Bonds of the same maturity and series, in definitive form, in the Authorized
Denomination, and in the same aggregate principal amount, as the Bond or Bonds in temporary
form surrendered. Such exchange shall be made without the making of any charge therefor to
any Owner.
Section 3.10. Replacement Bonds.
(a) Upon the presentation and surrender to the Paying Agent/Registrar of a mutilated
Bond, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a replacement Bond of like
tenor and principal amount, bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding. The Town or
the Paying Agent/Registrar may require the Owner of such Bond to pay a sum sufficient to cover
any tax or other governmental charge that is authorized to be imposed in connection therewith
and any other expenses connected therewith.
(b) In the event that any Bond is lost, apparently destroyed or wrongfully taken, the
Trustee, pursuant to the applicable laws of the State and in the absence of notice or knowledge
that such Bond has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, shall authenticate and deliver a
replacement Bond of like tenor and principal amount bearing a number not contemporaneously
outstanding, provided that the Owner first complies with the following requirements:
(i) furnishes to the Paying Agent/Registrar satisfactory evidence of his or her
ownership of and the circumstances of the loss, destruction or theft of such Bond;
(ii) furnishes such security or indemnity as may be required by the Paying
Agent/Registrar and the Trustee to save them and the Town harmless;
(iii) pays all expenses and charges in connection therewith, including, but not
limited to, printing costs, legal fees, fees of the Trustee and the Paying Agent/Registrar
and any tax or other governmental charge that is authorized to be imposed; and
(iv) satisfies any other reasonable requirements imposed by the Town and the
Trustee.
(c) After the delivery of such replacement Bond, if a bona fide purchaser of the
original Bond in lieu of which such replacement Bond was issued presents for payment such
original Bond, the Town and the Paying Agent/Registrar shall be entitled to recover such
replacement Bond from the Person to whom it was delivered or any Person taking therefrom,
except a bona fide purchaser, and shall be entitled to recover upon the security or indemnity
provided therefor to the extent of any loss, damage, cost, or expense incurred by the Town, the
Paying Agent/Registrar or the Trustee in connection therewith.
21
(d) In the event that any such mutilated, lost, apparently destroyed or wrongfully
taken Bond has become or is about to become due and payable, the Paying Agent/Registrar, in its
discretion, instead of issuing a replacement Bond, may pay such Bond if it has become due and
payable or may pay such Bond when it becomes due and payable.
(e) Each replacement Bond delivered in accordance with this Section shall constitute
an original additional contractual obligation of the Town and shall be entitled to the benefits and
security of this Indenture to the same extent as the Bond or Bonds in lieu of which such
replacement Bond is delivered.
Section 3.11. Book-Entry Only System.
(a) The Bonds shall initially be issued in book-entry-only form and shall be deposited
with DTC, which is hereby appointed to act as the securities depository therefor, in accordance
with the letter of representations from the Town to DTC. On the Closing Date the definitive
Bonds shall be issued in the form of a single typewritten certificate for each maturity thereof
registered in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee for DTC.
(b) With respect to Bonds registered in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee of DTC,
the Town and the Paying Agent/Registrar shall have no responsibility or obligation to any DTC
Participant or to any Person on behalf of whom such a DTC Participant holds an interest in the
Bonds. Without limiting the immediately preceding sentence, the Town and the Paying
Agent/Registrar shall have no responsibility or obligation with respect to (i) the accuracy of the
records of DTC, Cede & Co. or any DTC Participant will respect to any ownership interest in the
Bonds, (ii) the delivery to any DTC Participant or any other Person, other than an Owner, as
shown on the Register, of any notice with respect to the Bonds, including any notice of
redemption, or (iii) the payment to any DTC Participant or any other Person, other than an
Owner, as shown in the Register of any amount with respect to principal of, premium, if any, or
interest on the Bonds. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture to the contrary, the
Town and the Paying Agent/Registrar shall be entitled to treat and consider the Person in whose
name each Bond is registered in the Register as the absolute owner of such Bond for the purpose
of payment of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on Bonds, for the purpose of giving
notices of redemption and other matters with respect to such Bond, for the purpose of registering
transfer with respect to such Bond, and for all other purposes whatsoever. The Paying
Agent/Registrar shall pay all principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds only to or
upon the order of the respective Owners as shown in the Register, as provided in this Indenture,
and all such payments shall be valid and effective to fully satisfy and discharge the Town's
obligations with respect to payment of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds to
the extent of the sum or sums so paid. No Person other than an Owner, as shown in the Register,
shall receive a Bond certificate evidencing the obligation of the Town to make payments of
amounts due pursuant to this Indenture. Upon delivery by DTC to the Paying Agent/Registrar of
written notice to the effect that DTC has determined to substitute a new nominee in place of
Cede & Co., and subject to the provisions in this Indenture with respect to interest checks or
drafts being mailed to the registered owner at the close of business on the Record Date, the word
"Cede & Co." in this Indenture shall refer to such new nominee of DTC.
22
Section 3.12. Successor Securities Depository: Transfer Outside Book-Entry-Only
System.
In the event that the Town determines that DTC is incapable of discharging its
responsibilities described herein and in the letter of representations from the Town to DTC, the
Town shall (i) appoint a successor securities depository, qualified to act as such under Section
17(a) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, notify DTC and DTC
Participants of the appointment of such successor securities depository and transfer one or more
separate Bonds to such successor securities depository; or (ii) notify DTC and DTC Participants
of the availability through DTC of certificated Bonds and cause the Paying Agent/Registrar to
transfer one or more separate registered Bonds to DTC Participants having Bonds credited to
their DTC accounts. In such event, the Bonds shall no longer be restricted to being registered in
the Register in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee of DTC, but may be registered in the name
of the successor securities depository, or its nominee, or in whatever name or names Owners
transferring or exchanging Bonds shall designate, in accordance with the provisions of this
Indenture.
Section 3.13. Payments to Cede & Co.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture to the contrary, so long as any
Bonds are registered in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee of DTC, all payments with respect
to principal of, premium, if any, and interest on such Bonds, and all notices with respect to such
Bonds shall be made and given, respectively, in the manner provided in the blanket letter of
representations from the Town to DTC.

If a date for the payment of the principal of or interest on the Bonds is a Saturday,
Sunday, legal holiday, or a day on which banking institutions in the city in which the Designated

date for such payment shall be the next succeeding Business Day, and payment on such date
shall have the same force and effect as if made on the original date payment was due.
This Bond is one of a duly authorized issue of assessment revenue bonds of the Town
having the designation specified in its title (herein referred to as the "Bonds"), dated as of the
Date of Delivery and issued in the aggregate principal amount of [$26,175,000] and issued, with
the limitations described herein, pursuant to an Indenture of Trust, dated as of February 1, 2015
(the "Indenture"), by and between the Town and the Trustee, to which Indenture reference is
hereby made for a description of the amounts thereby pledged and assigned, the nature and
extent of the lien and security, the respective rights thereunder to the holders of the Bonds, the
Trustee, and the Town, and the terms upon which the Bonds are, and are to be, authenticated and
delivered and by this reference to the terms of which each holder of this Bond hereby consents.
All Bonds issued under the Indenture are equally and ratably secured by the amounts thereby

Revenues. Reference is hereby made to the Indenture, copies of which are on file with and
available upon request from the Trustee, for the provisions, among others, with respect to the
nature and extent of the duties and obligations of the Town, the Trustee and the Owners. The
Owner of this Bond, by the acceptance hereof, is deemed to have agreed and consented to the
terms, conditions and provisions of the Indenture.
Notwithstanding any provision hereof, the Indenture may be released and the obligation
of the Town to make money available to pay this Bond may be defeased by the deposit of money
and/or certain direct or indirect Defeasance Securities sufficient for such purpose as described in
the Indenture.
The Bonds are issuable as fully registered bonds only in denominations of $25,000 and
any multiple of $5,000 in excess thereof ("Authorized Denominations"). The Town prohibits the
breaking up or allocation of CUSIP numbers to any Bond or Bonds in denominations of less than

At least thirty (30) days prior to each sinking fund redemption date, the Trustee shall
select for redemption by lot, or by any other customary method that results in a random selection,
a principal amount of Bonds of such maturity equal to the sinking fund installments of such
Bonds to be redeemed, shall call such Bonds for redemption on such scheduled mandatory
sinking fund redemption date, and shall give notice of such redemption, as provided in Section
4.6 of the Indenture.

The principal amount of Bonds required to be redeemed on any sinking fund redemption
date shall be reduced, at the option of the Town, by the principal amount of any Bonds of such
maturity which, at least 30 days prior to the sinking fund redemption date shall have been
acquired by the Town at a price not exceeding the principal amount of such Bonds plus accrued
and unpaid interest to the date of purchase thereof, and delivered to the Trustee for cancellation.
The principal amount of Bonds required to be redeemed on any sinking fund redemption
date shall be reduced on a pro rata basis among Sinking Fund Installments by the principal
amount of any Bonds which, at least 30 days prior to the sinking fund redemption date, shall
have been redeemed pursuant to the optional redemption or extraordinary optional redemption
provisions hereof and not previously credited to a mandatory sinking fund redemption.
The Town reserves the right and option to redeem Bonds before their scheduled maturity
date, in whole or in part, on any date on or after September 1, 20__, such redemption date or
dates to be fixed by the Town, at the redemption price (expressed as a percentage of principal
amount) applicable to the date of redemption falling within the applicable redemption period, as
set forth in the following schedule, plus accrued interest to the date of redemption:
Redemption Period Redemption Price
September 1, 20__ through August 31, 20__ 103%

September 1, 20__ through August 31, 20__ 101%
September 1, 20__ and thereafter. 100%
Bonds are subject to extraordinary optional redemption prior to maturity in whole or in
part, on the fifteenth day of any month, at a redemption price equal to the principal amount of the
Bonds called for redemption, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date fixed for redemption
from amounts on deposit in the Redemption Fund as a result of Prepayments or any other
transfers to the Redemption Fund under the terms of the Indenture.
The Trustee shall give notice of any redemption of Bonds by sending notice by first class
United States mail, postage prepaid, not less than 30 days before the date fixed for redemption,
to the Owner of each Bond (or part thereof) to be redeemed, at the address shown on the
Register. The notice shall state the redemption date, the Redemption Price, the place at which the
Bonds are to be surrendered for payment, and, if less than all the Bonds Outstanding are to be
redeemed, an identification of the Bonds or portions thereof to be redeemed. Any notice so given
shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given, whether or not the Owner receives such
notice.
With respect to any optional redemption of the Bonds, unless the Trustee has received
funds sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of the Bonds to be redeemed before giving of a
notice of redemption, the notice may state the Town may condition redemption on the receipt of
such funds by the Trustee on or before the date fixed for the redemption, or on the satisfaction of
any other prerequisites set forth in the notice of redemption. If a conditional notice of redemption
is given and such prerequisites to the redemption and sufficient funds are not received, the notice
31
shall be of no force and effect, the Town shall not redeem the Bonds and the Trustee shall give
notice, in the manner in which the notice of redemption was given, that the Bonds have not been
redeemed.
The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment
thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Town and the rights of the
holders of the Bonds under the Indenture at any time Outstanding affected by such modification.
The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the holders of specified percentages in
aggregate principal amount of the Bonds at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the holders of all
the Bonds, to waive compliance by the Town with certain past defaults under the Bond
Ordinance or the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the holder of
this Bond or any predecessor Bond evidencing the same debt shall be conclusive and binding
upon such holder and upon all future holders thereof and of any Bond issued upon the transfer
thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof, whether or not notation of such consent or
waiver is made upon this Bond.
As provided in the Indenture, this Bond is transferable upon surrender of this Bond for
transfer at the Designated Payment/Transfer Office, with such endorsement or other evidence of
transfer as is acceptable to the Trustee, and upon delivery to the Trustee of such certifications

instructions contained therein.
(c) Except as provided in Section 6.5(d) and (f), money on deposit in the
Improvement Project A Improvement Account shall be used solely to pay Costs.
(d) If the Town Representative determines in his or her sole discretion that amounts
then on deposit in the Project Fund are not expected to be expended for purposes of the Project
Fund due to the abandonment, or constructive abandonment, of one or more of the Improvement
Project A Improvements such that, in the opinion of the Town Representative, it is unlikely that
the amounts in the Project Fund will ever be expended for the purposes of the Project Fund, the
39
Town Representative shall file a Town Certificate with the Trustee which identifies the amounts
then on deposit in the Project Fund that are not expected to be used for purposes of the Project
Fund. If such Town Certificate is so filed, the amounts on deposit in the Project Fund shall be
transferred to the Redemption Fund to redeem Bonds on the earliest practicable date after notice
of redemption has been provided in accordance with this Indenture. Upon such transfers, the
Project Fund shall be closed.
(e) In making any determination pursuant to this Section, the Town Representative
may conclusively rely upon a certificate of an Independent Financial Consultant.
(f) Upon the filing of a Town Certificate stating that all Improvement Project A
Improvements have been completed and that all Costs have been paid, or that any Costs are not
required to be paid from the Project Fund pursuant to a Certification for Payment, the Trustee
shall transfer the amount, if any, remaining within the Project Fund to the Bond Fund or to the
Redemption Fund as directed by the Town Representative in a Town Certificate filed with the
Trustee and shall transfer any remaining amount in the Developer Improvement Account of the
Project Fund to the Developer. Upon such transfers, the Project Fund shall be closed.
(g) Upon a determination by the Town Representative that all costs of issuance of the
Bonds have been paid, any amounts remaining in the Costs of Issuance Account shall be
transferred to another Account or Subaccount in the Project Fund and used to pay Costs or to the
Principal and Interest Account and used to pay interest on the Bonds, as directed in a Town
Certificate filed with the Trustee.
Section 6.6. Redemption Fund.
The Trustee shall cause to be deposited to the Redemption Fund from the Pledged
Revenue Fund an amount sufficient to redeem Bonds as provided in Sections 4.3 and 4.4 on the
dates specified for redemption as provided in Sections 4.3 and 4.4. Amounts on deposit in the
Redemption Fund shall be used and withdrawn by the Trustee to redeem Bonds as provided in
Article IV.
Section 6.7. Reserve Fund.
(a) The Town agrees with the Owners of the Bonds to accumulate and, when
accumulated, maintain in the Reserve Account of the Reserve Fund, an amount equal to not less
than the Reserve Fund Requirement. All amounts deposited in the Reserve Account of the
Reserve Fund shall be used and withdrawn by the Trustee for the purpose of making transfers to
the Principal and Interest Account of the Bond Fund as provided in this Indenture. The Trustee
will transfer from the Pledged Revenue Fund to the Prepayment Reserve Account on March 1
and September 1 of each year, commencing _____, 20__, an amount equal to 0.20% of the
interest rate component of the Annual Installments in the Prepayment Reserve Account until the
Prepayment Reserve Requirement has accumulated in the Prepayment Reserve Account. Once
the Prepayment Reserve Requirement has accumulated in the Prepayment Reserve Account, such
0.20% of the interest rate component of the Annual Installments will be deposited into the
Delinquency Reserve Account until the Delinquency Reserve Requirement has been
accumulated in the Delinquency Reserve Account; provided, however, that at any time the
amount on deposit in the Prepayment Reserve Account is less than Prepayment Reserve
40
Requirement, the Trustee shall resume depositing such 0.20% into the Prepayment Reserve
Account until the Prepayment Reserve Requirement has accumulated in the Prepayment Reserve
Account. Furthermore, once the Prepayment Reserve Requirement has accumulated in the
Prepayment Reserve Account, any amounts in excess of the Prepayment Reserve Requirement
shall be transferred by the Trustee first to the Delinquency Reserve Account in the event such
account contains less than the Delinquency Reserve Requirement, or, if the Delinquency Reserve
Account contains the Delinquency Reserve Requirement, then to the Redemption Fund to
redeem Bonds as provided in Article IV. In addition, the Trustee shall deposit from the Pledged
Revenue Fund to the Delinquency Reserve Account on March 1 and September 1, commencing
_____, 20__, an amount equal to 0.30% of the interest rate component of the Annual
Installments. Once the Delinquency Reserve Requirement has accumulated in the Delinquency
Reserve Account, any amounts in excess of the Delinquency Reserve Requirement in the
Delinquency Reserve Account shall be transferred by the Trustee to the Redemption Fund to
redeem Bonds as provided in Article IV; provided, however, that at any time the amount on
deposit in the Delinquency Reserve Account is less than Delinquency Reserve Requirement, the
Trustee shall resume depositing such 0.30% into the Delinquency Reserve Account until the
Delinquency Reserve Requirement has accumulated in the Delinquency Reserve Account. Once
the Prepayment Reserve Requirement has accumulated in the Prepayment Reserve Account and
the Delinquency Reserve Requirement has accumulated in the Delinquency Reserve Account,
such 0.50% of the interest rate component of the Annual Installments will be deposited into
Redemption Fund to redeem Bonds as provided in Article IV; provided, however, that (i) at any
time the amount on deposit in the Prepayment Reserve Account is less than Prepayment Reserve
Requirement, the Trustee shall resume depositing 0.20% of the interest rate component of the
Annual Installments into the Prepayment Reserve Account until the Prepayment Reserve
Requirement has accumulated in the Prepayment Reserve Account and (ii) at any time the
amount on deposit in the Delinquency Reserve Account is less than Delinquency Reserve
Requirement, the Trustee shall resume depositing 0.30% of the interest rate component of the
Annual Installments into the Delinquency Reserve Account until the Delinquency Reserve
Requirement has accumulated in the Delinquency Reserve Account. In calculating the amounts
to be transferred pursuant to this Section, the Trustee may conclusively rely on the Annual
Installments as shown on the Assessment Roll in the Service and Assessment Plan unless it
receives a Town Order specifying that a different amount be used.
(b) Whenever a transfer is made from the Reserve Fund to the Bond Fund due to a
deficiency in the Bond Fund, the Trustee shall provide written notice thereof to the Town,
specifying the amount withdrawn and the source of said funds.
(c) In the event of an extraordinary optional redemption of Bonds from the proceeds
of a Prepayment pursuant to Section 4.4, the Trustee, pursuant to written directions from the
Town, shall transfer from the Reserve Account of the Reserve Fund to the Redemption Fund the
amount specified in such directions, which shall be an amount equal to the principal amount of
Bonds to be redeemed multiplied by the lesser of: (i) the amount required to be in the Reserve
Account of the Reserve Fund divided by the principal amount of Outstanding Bonds prior to the
redemption, and (ii) the amount actually in the Reserve Account of the Reserve Fund divided by
the principal amount of Outstanding Bonds prior to the redemption. If after such transfer, and
after applying investment earnings on the Prepayment toward payment of accrued interest, there
are insufficient funds to pay the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest on such
Bonds to the date fixed for redemption of the Bonds to be redeemed as a result of such
41
Prepayment, the Trustee shall transfer an amount equal to the shortfall from the Prepayment
Reserve Account to the Redemption Fund to be applied to the redemption of the Bonds.
(d) Whenever, on any Interest Payment Date, or on any other date at the request of a
Town Representative, the value of cash and Value of Investment Securities on deposit in the
Reserve Account exceeds the Reserve Fund Requirement, the Trustee shall provide written
notice to the Town Representative of the amount of the excess. Such excess shall be transferred
to the Principal and Interest Account to be used for the payment of interest on the Bonds on the
next Interest Payment Date in accordance with Section 6.4, unless within thirty days of such
notice to the Town Representative, the Trustee receives a Town Order instructing the Trustee to
apply such excess: (i) to pay amounts due under Section 6.8 hereof, (ii) to the Administrative
Fund in an amount not more than the Administrative Expenses for the Bonds or (iii) to the
Project Fund to pay Costs if such application and the expenditure of funds is expected to occur
within three years of the date hereof.
(e) Whenever, on any Interest Payment Date, or on any other date at the written
request of the Town Representative, the amount in the Prepayment Reserve Account exceeds the
Prepayment Reserve Requirement, the Trustee shall provide written notice to the Town of the
amount of the excess, and the Trustee shall transfer such excess pursuant to Section 6.7(a)
hereof.
(f) Whenever, on any Interest Payment Date, or on any other date at the written
request of the Town Representative, the amount in the Delinquency Reserve Account exceeds
the Delinquency Reserve Requirement, the Trustee shall provide written notice to the Town of
the amount of the excess, and the Trustee shall transfer such excess pursuant to Section 6.7(a)
hereof.
(g) Whenever, on any Interest Payment Date, the amount on deposit in the Bond
Fund is insufficient to pay the debt service on the Bonds Similarly Secured due on such date, the
Trustee shall transfer first from the Delinquency Reserve Account of the Reserve Fund, second
from the Reserve Account of the Reserve Fund and third from the Prepayment Reserve Account
to the Bond Fund the amounts necessary to cure such deficiency.
(h) At the final maturity of the Bonds Similarly Secured, the amount on deposit in the
Reserve Account, the Prepayment Reserve Account and the Delinquency Reserve Account shall
be transferred to the Redemption Fund and applied to the payment of the principal of the Bonds
Similarly Secured.
(i) If, after a Reserve Account withdrawal, the amount on deposit in the Reserve
Account is less than the Reserve Fund Requirement, the Trustee shall transfer from the Pledged
Revenue Fund to the Reserve Account the amount of such deficiency, but only to the extent that
such amount is not required for the timely payment of principal, interest, or Sinking Fund
Installments.
(j) If the amount held in the Reserve Fund together with the amount held in the
Pledged Revenue Fund, the Bond Fund and Redemption Fund is sufficient to pay the principal
amount and of all Outstanding Bonds Similarly Secured on the next date the Bonds Similarly
Secured may be optionally redeemed by the Town at a redemption price of par, together with the
42
unpaid interest accrued on such Bonds Similarly Secured as of such date, the moneys shall be
transferred to the Redemption Fund and thereafter used to redeem all Bonds Similarly Secured
on such date.
Section 6.8. Rebate Fund: Rebatable Arbitrage.
(a) The Rebate Fund is to be held by the Trustee in accordance with the terms and
provisions of this Indenture. Amounts on deposit in the Rebate Fund shall be used solely for the
purpose of paying amounts due the United States Government in accordance with the Code. The
Rebate Fund shall not be part of the Trust Estate and shall not be security for the Bonds.
(b) In order to assure that Rebatable Arbitrage is paid to the United States rather than
to a third party, investments of funds on deposit in the Rebate Fund shall be made in accordance
with the Code and the Tax Certificate.
(c) The Trustee conclusively shall be deemed to have complied with the provisions of
this Section and shall not be liable or responsible if it follows the instructions of the Town and
shall not be required to take any action under this Section in the absence of instructions from the
Town.
(d) If, on the date of each annual calculation, the amount on deposit in the Rebate
Fund exceeds the amount of the Rebatable Arbitrage, the Town may direct the Trustee, pursuant
to a Town Order, to transfer the amount in excess of the Rebatable Arbitrage to the Bond Fund.
Section 6.9. Administrative Fund.
(a) Immediately upon receipt thereof, the Town shall deposit or cause to be deposited
to the Administrative Fund the portion of the Assessments and Annual Installments allocated to
the payment of Administrative Expenses and Delinquent Collection Costs, as set forth in the
Service and Assessment Plan.
(b) Moneys in the Administrative Fund shall be held by the Trustee separate and
apart from the other Funds created and administered hereunder and used as directed by a Town
Order solely for the purposes set forth in the Service and Assessment Plan, including payment of
Administrative Expenses and Delinquent Collection Costs. The Administrative Fund shall not
be part of the Trust Estate and shall not be security for the Bonds.
Section 6.10. Developer Property Tax Reserve Fund.
(a) The Developer shall deposit or cause to be deposited the Initial Deposit into the
Developer Property Tax Reserve Fund on or prior to the issuance of the Bonds. Prior to the
Developer Property Tax Reserve Fund Release Date, and upon receipt by the Trustee of a Town
Order specifying (1) the amount to be transferred and that such amount is equal to all outstanding
Developer Property Tax Delinquency Amounts and (2) the dates on which such transfer shall be
made, funds deposited in the Developer Property Tax Reserve Fund shall be transferred by the
Trustee in an aggregate amount equal to all outstanding Developer Property Tax Delinquency
Amounts to the Town for payment of the related unpaid delinquent ad valorem taxes levied by
any taxing entity on any property located in Improvement Area #1, Improvement Area #2 and
43
Improvement Area #3 and any penalties, costs and interest related thereto. The Town shall use
amounts received by the Trustee from the Developer Property Tax Reserve Fund solely for
payment of outstanding Developer Property Tax Delinquency Amounts and any penalties, costs
and interest related thereto, all in accordance with the Redemption Waiver Agreement. Prior to
the Developer Property Tax Reserve Fund Release Date, upon any transfer of funds deposited in
the Developer Property Tax Reserve Fund to the Town in accordance with this clause (a), the
Developer shall deposit or cause to be deposited an equivalent amount of funds into the
Developer Property Tax Reserve Fund to replenish such Fund, all in accordance with the
Redemption Waiver Agreement.
(b) Any amounts deposited in the Developer Property Tax Reserve Fund shall be
released to the Developer, except during the occurrence of an ongoing current Event of Default,
on or after March 1 of the first year after the tax year in which no property located in
Improvement Area #1, Improvement Area #2 and Improvement Area #3 is subject to an
agriculture valuation for purposes of ad valorem taxes levied by any taxing entity. Such amounts
shall be released only upon the filing of evidence satisfactory to the Town of payment of all ad
valorem taxes due and owing with respect to property located in Improvement Area #1,
Improvement Area #2 and Improvement Area #3 subject to an agriculture valuation. The Town
shall provide the Trustee with a Town Certificate to this effect, upon which the Trustee may
conclusively rely.
At such time as the condition for release is met, any amounts deposited in the Developer
Property Tax Reserve Fund shall be irrevocably and unconditionally released to the Developer,
or to the Developer's successors and assigns or designees as identified in a written notice from
the Developer to the Trustee and the Town. The Town and the Trustee shall solely and
conclusively rely as to payment of amounts released from the Developer Property Tax Reserve
Fund on any such written notice from the Developer as to their successors and assigns or
designees. The Town shall provide written notice of the release to the Trustee and Developer, or
to the Developer's successors and assigns.
Section 6.11. Investment of Funds.
(a) Money in any Fund or Account, other than the Reserve Account, shall be invested
by the Trustee as directed by the Town pursuant to a Town Order filed with the Trustee in
Investment Securities; provided that all such deposits and investments shall be made in such
manner that the money required to be expended from any Fund or Account will be available at
the proper time or times. Money in the Reserve Account shall be invested in such Investment
Securities as directed by the Town pursuant to a Town Order filed with the Trustee, provided
that the final maturity of any individual Investment Security shall not exceed 270 days and the
average weighted maturity of any investment pool or no-load money market mutual fund shall
not exceed 90 days. Each such Town Order shall be a certification that the investment directed
therein constitutes an Investment Security and that such investments meet the maturity and
average weighted maturity requirements set forth in the preceding sentence. Such investments
shall be valued each year in terms of the Value of Investment Securities as of September 30. For
purposes of maximizing investment returns, to the extent permitted by law, money in the Funds
and Accounts may be invested in common investments of the kind described above, or in a
common pool of such investment which shall be kept and held at an official depository bank,
which shall not be deemed to be or constitute a commingling of such money or funds provided
44
that safekeeping receipts or certificates of participation clearly evidencing the investment or
investment pool in which such money is invested and the share thereof purchased with such
money or owned by such Fund or Account are held by or on behalf of each such Fund or
Account. If necessary, such investments shall be promptly sold to prevent any default under this
Indenture. To ensure that cash on hand is invested, if the Town does not give the Trustee written
or timely instructions with respect to investments of funds, the Trustee may invest cash balances
in obligations the principal and interest on which are unconditionally guaranteed by, the United
States of America, in obligations of any agencies or instrumentalities thereof, or in such other
investments as are permitted under the Public Funds Investment Act, Texas Government Code,
Chapter 2256, as amended, or any successor law, as in effect from time to time, so long as such
investments constitute Investment Securities and the money required to be expended from any
Fund will be available at the proper time or times.
(b) Obligations purchased as an investment of moneys in any Fund or Account shall

account for such investments strictly in accordance with the Funds and Accounts to which they
are credited and otherwise as provided in this Indenture.

cash transaction statements which include detail for all investment transactions effected by the

funds it has contributed to pay Costs of the Improvement Project A Improvements, it will keep

Section 7.5. Covenants Regarding Tax Exemption of Interest on Bonds.
(a) The Town covenants to take any action necessary to assure, or refrain from any
action that would adversely affect, the treatment of the Bonds as an obligation described in
section 103 of the Code, the interest on which is not includable in the "gross income" of the
holder for purposes of federal income taxation. In furtherance thereof, the Town covenants as
follows:
(1) to take any action to assure that no more than 10 percent of the proceeds
of the Bonds (less amounts deposited to a reserve fund, if any) are used for any "private
business use," as defined in section 141(b)(6) of the Code or, if more than 10 percent of
47
the proceeds or the projects financed therewith are so used, such amounts, whether or not
received by the Town, with respect to such private business use, do not, under the terms
of this Article or any underlying arrangement, directly or indirectly, secure or provide for
the payment of more than 10 percent of the debt service on the Bonds, in contravention of
section 141(b)(2) of the Code;
(2) to take any action to assure that in the event that the "private business use"
described in subsection (1) hereof exceeds 5 percent of the proceeds of the Bonds or the
projects financed therewith (less amounts deposited into a reserve fund, if any) then the
amount in excess of 5 percent is used for a "private business use" that is "related" and not
"disproportionate," within the meaning of section 141(b)(3) of the Code, to the
governmental use;
(3) to take any action to assure that no amount that is greater than the lesser of
$5,000,000, or 5 percent of the proceeds of the Bonds (less amounts deposited into a
reserve fund, if any) is directly or indirectly used to finance loans to persons, other than
state or local governmental units, in contravention of section 141(c) of the Code;
(4) to refrain from taking any action that would otherwise result in the Bonds
being treated as a "private activity bond" within the meaning of section 141(b) of the
Code;
(5) to refrain from taking any action that would result in the Bonds being
"federally guaranteed" within the meaning of section 149(b) of the Code;
(6) to refrain from using any portion of the proceeds of the Bonds, directly or
indirectly, to acquire or to replace funds that were used, directly or indirectly, to acquire
investment property (as defined in section 148(b)(2) of the Code) that produces a
materially higher yield over the term of the Bonds, other than investment property
acquired with –
(A) proceeds of the Bonds invested for a reasonable temporary period
of 3 years or less or, in the case of an advance refunding bond, for a period of 30
days or less until such proceeds are needed for the purpose for which the Bonds is
issued, and in the case of a current refunding bond, for a period of 90 days or less,
(B) amounts invested in a bona fide debt service fund, within the
meaning of section 1.148-1(b) of the Treasury Regulations, and
(C) amounts deposited in any reasonably required reserve or
replacement fund to the extent such amounts do not exceed 10 percent of the
proceeds of the Bonds;
(7) to otherwise restrict the use of the proceeds of the Bonds or amounts
treated as proceeds of the Bonds, as may be necessary, so that the Bonds does not
otherwise contravene the requirements of section 148 of the Code (relating to arbitrage)
and, to the extent applicable, section 149(d) of the Code (relating to advance refundings);
and
48
(8) to pay to the United States of America at least once during each five-year
period (beginning on the date of delivery of the Bonds) an amount that is at least equal to
90 percent of the "Excess Earnings," within the meaning of section 148(f) of the Code
and to pay to the United States of America, not later than 60 days after the Bonds has
been paid in full, 100 percent of the amount then required to be paid as a result of Excess
Earnings under section 148(f) of the Code.
(b) In order to facilitate compliance with the above covenant (a)(8), the Rebate Fund
is established by the Town pursuant to Section 6.1 for the sole benefit of the United States of
America, and such Rebate Fund shall not be subject to the claim of any other person, including
without limitation the Registered Owner. The Rebate Fund is established for the additional
purpose of compliance with section 148 of the Code.
(c) The Town understands that the term "proceeds" includes "disposition proceeds"
as defined in the Treasury Regulations and, in the case of refunding bonds, transferred proceeds
(if any) and proceeds of the refunded bonds expended prior to the date of issuance of the Bonds.
It is the understanding of the Town that the covenants contained herein are intended to assure
compliance with the Code and any regulations or rulings promulgated by the U.S. Department of
the Treasury pursuant thereto (the "Treasury Regulations"). In the event that regulations or
rulings are hereafter promulgated that modify or expand provisions of the Code, as applicable to
the Bonds, the Town will not be required to comply with any covenant contained herein to the
extent that such failure to comply, in the opinion of nationally recognized bond counsel, will not
adversely affect the exemption from federal income taxation of interest on the Bonds under
section 103 of the Code. In the event that regulations or rulings are hereafter promulgated that
impose additional requirements applicable to the Bonds, the Town agrees to comply with the
additional requirements to the extent necessary, in the opinion of nationally recognized bond
counsel, to preserve the exemption from federal income taxation of interest on the Bonds under
section 103 of the Code. In furtherance of such intention, the Town hereby authorizes and
directs the Mayor to execute any documents, certificates or reports required by the Code and to
make such elections, on behalf of the Town, that may be permitted by the Code as are consistent
with the purpose for the issuance of the Bonds.
(d) The Town covenants to account for the expenditure of sale proceeds and
investment earnings to be used for Costs on its books and records in accordance with the
requirements of the Code. The Town recognizes that in order for the proceeds to be considered
used for the reimbursement of costs, the proceeds must be allocated to expenditures within 18
months of the later of the date that (1) the expenditure is made, or (2) the Improvement Project A
Improvements are completed; but in no event later than three years after the date on which the
original expenditure is paid. The foregoing notwithstanding, the Town recognizes that in order
for proceeds to be expended under the Code, the sale proceeds or investment earnings must be
expended no more than 60 days after the earlier of (1) the fifth anniversary of the delivery of the
Bonds, or (2) the date the Bonds is retired. The Town agrees to obtain the advice of nationally-
recognized bond counsel if such expenditure fails to comply with the foregoing to assure that
such expenditure will not adversely affect the tax-exempt status of the Bonds. For purposes
hereof, the Town shall not be obligated to comply with this covenant if it obtains an opinion that
such failure to comply will not adversely affect the excludability for federal income tax purposes
from gross income of the interest.
49
(e) The Town covenants that the projects funded with the proceeds of the Bonds will
not be sold or otherwise disposed in a transaction resulting in the receipt by the Town of cash or
other compensation, unless the Town obtains an opinion of nationally-recognized bond counsel
that such sale or other disposition will not adversely affect the tax-exempt status of the Bonds.
For purposes of the foregoing, the portion of the property comprising personal property and
disposed in the ordinary course shall not be treated as a transaction resulting in the receipt of
cash or other compensation. For purposes hereof, the Town shall not be obligated to comply
with this covenant if it obtains a legal opinion that such failure to comply will not adversely
affect the excludability for federal income tax proposes from gross income of the interest.

statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions

any of its officers, officials, agents, or employees to enforce the provisions of any of the Bond
Documents or to enforce all rights of the Owners of the Bonds by mandamus or other proceeding
at law or in equity.

upon any notice, resolution, request, consent, order, certificate, report, warrant, bond, or other
paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the
proper party or proper parties. The Town may consult with counsel with regard to legal
questions, and the opinion of such counsel shall be full and complete authorization and

shall deem it necessary or desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking or
suffering any action hereunder, such matter (unless other evidence in respect thereof be herein

deemed to be conclusively proved and established by a certificate of the Trustee, an Independent
Financial Consultant, an independent inspector or Town Manager or other person designated by
the Town Council to so act on behalf of the Town, and such certificate shall be full warrant to the
Town for any action taken or suffered under the provisions of this Indenture upon the faith
thereof, but in its discretion the Town may, in lieu thereof, accept other evidence of such matter
or may require such additional evidence as to it may deem reasonable.
(g) In order to perform its duties and obligations hereunder, the Town may employ
such persons or entities as it deems necessary or advisable. The Town shall not be liable for any
of the acts or omissions of such persons or entities employed by it in good faith hereunder, and

determinations, and directions of such persons or entities.

such a successor, and the court may thereupon, after such notice, if any, as the court may deem
proper, appoint such successor and the Town shall be responsible for the costs of such
appointment process.

such appointment, and thereupon such successor, without any further act, deed, or conveyance,
shall become fully vested with all moneys, estates, properties, rights, immunities, powers, duties,
obligations, and trusts of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally appointed as
Trustee. However, the Trustee then ceasing to act shall nevertheless, on request of the Town or
of such successor, execute, acknowledge, and deliver such instruments of conveyance and
further assurance and do such other things as may reasonably be required for more fully and
certainly vesting and confirming in such successor all the rights, immunities, powers, and trusts
of such Trustee and all the right, title, and interest of such Trustee in and to the Trust Estate, and

obligation of the Town to pay the principal of, and the interest and any premium on, any Bond,
without the express consent of the Owner of such Bond, or (ii) permit the creation by the Town
of any pledge or lien upon the Pledged Revenues superior to or on a parity with the pledge and
lien created for the benefit of the Bonds (except as otherwise permitted by Applicable Laws or
this Indenture), or reduce the percentage of Bonds required for the amendment hereof. Any such
amendment may not modify any of the rights or obligations of the Trustee without its written
consent.

also be modified or amended at any time by a Supplemental Indenture, without the consent of
any Owners, only to the extent permitted by law, and only for anyone or more of the following
purposes:

contained, other covenants and agreements thereafter to be observed, or to limit or
surrender any right or power herein reserved to or conferred upon the Town;

any material respect;
(iii) to make such provisions for the purpose of curing any ambiguity, or of
curing, correcting or supplementing any defective provision contained in this Indenture,

deem necessary or desirable and not inconsistent with this Indenture, and that shall not
adversely affect the rights of the Owners of the Bonds; and
(iv) to make such additions, deletions or modifications as may be necessary or
desirable to assure exemption from federal income taxation of interest on the Bonds.

Section 10.3. Procedure for Amendment with Written Consent of Owners.
(a) The Town and the Trustee may at any time adopt a Supplemental Indenture
amending the provisions of the Bonds or of this Indenture, to the extent that such amendment is
permitted by Section 10.1, to take effect when and as provided in this Section. A copy of such
Supplemental Indenture, together with a request to Owners for their consent thereto, if such
consent is required pursuant to Section 10.1, shall be mailed by first class mail, by the Trustee to
each Owner of Bonds from whom consent is required under this Indenture, but failure to mail
copies of such Supplemental Indenture and request shall not affect the validity of the
Supplemental Indenture when assented to as in this Section provided.
57
(b) Such Supplemental Indenture shall not become effective unless there shall be
filed with the Trustee the written consents of the Owners as required by this Indenture and a
notice shall have been mailed as hereinafter in this Section provided. Each such consent shall be
effective only if accompanied by proof of ownership of the Bonds for which such consent is
given, which proof shall be such as is permitted by Section 11.6. Any such consent shall be
binding upon the Owner of the Bonds giving such consent and on any subsequent Owner
(whether or not such subsequent Owner has notice thereof), unless such consent is revoked in
writing by the Owner giving such consent or a subsequent Owner by filing such revocation with
the Trustee prior to the date when the notice hereinafter in this Section provided for has been
mailed.
(c) After the Owners of the required percentage of Bonds shall have filed their
consents to the Supplemental Indenture, the Town shall mail a notice to the Owners in the
manner hereinbefore provided in this Section for the mailing of the Supplemental Indenture,
stating in substance that the Supplemental Indenture has been consented to by the Owners of the
required percentage of Bonds and will be effective as provided in this Section (but failure to mail
copies of said notice shall not affect the validity of the Supplemental Indenture or consents
thereto). Proof of the mailing of such notice shall be filed with the Trustee. A record, consisting
of the papers required by this Section 10.3 to be filed with the Trustee, shall be proof of the
matters therein stated until the contrary is proved. The Supplemental Indenture shall become
effective upon the filing with the Trustee of the proof of mailing of such notice, and the
Supplemental Indenture shall be deemed conclusively binding (except as otherwise hereinabove
specifically provided in this Article) upon the Town and the Owners of all Bonds at the
expiration of sixty (60) days after such filing, except in the event of a final decree of a court of
competent jurisdiction setting aside such consent in a legal action or equitable proceeding for
such purpose commenced within such sixty-day period.
Section 10.4. Procedure for Amendment Not Requiring Owner Consent.
(a) The Town and the Trustee may at any time adopt a Supplemental Indenture
amending the provisions of the Bonds or of this Indenture, to the extent that such amendment is

Supplemental Indenture, together with a notice stating that the Supplemental Indenture does not
require Owner consent, shall be mailed by first class mail by the Trustee to each Owner of
Bonds, but failure to mail copies of such Supplemental Indenture shall not affect the validity of
the Supplemental Indenture. The Trustee shall retain the proof of its mailing of such notice. A
record, consisting of the papers required by this Section 10.4, shall be proof of the matters
therein stated until the contrary is proved.
(b) The Supplemental Indenture shall become effective upon the execution and
delivery of such Supplemental Indenture by the Trustee and the Town, and the Supplemental

Article X, this Indenture shall be deemed to be modified and amended in accordance therewith,
58
the respective rights, duties, and obligations under this Indenture of the Town and all Owners of
Bonds Outstanding shall thereafter be determined, exercised and enforced hereunder subject in
all respects to such modifications and amendments, and all the terms and conditions of any such
Supplemental Indenture shall be deemed to be part of the terms and conditions of this Indenture
for any and all purposes.
Section 10.6. Endorsement or Replacement of Bonds Issued After Amendments.
The Town may determine that Bonds issued and delivered after the effective date of any
action taken as provided in this Article X shall bear a notation, by endorsement or otherwise, in
form approved by the Town, as to such action. In that case, upon demand of the Owner of any
Bond Outstanding at such effective date and presentation of his Bond for that purpose at the
designated office of the Trustee or at such other office as the Town may select and designate for
that purpose, a suitable notation shall be made on such Bond. The Town may determine that new
Bonds, so modified as in the opinion of the Town is necessary to conform to such Owners'
action, shall be prepared, executed, and delivered. In that case, upon demand of the Owner of
any Bonds then Outstanding, such new Bonds shall be exchanged at the designated office of the
Trustee without cost to any Owner, for Bonds then Outstanding, upon surrender of such Bonds.
Section 10.7. Amendatory Endorsement of Bonds.
The provisions of this Article X shall not prevent any Owner from accepting any
amendment as to the particular Bonds held by such Owner, provided that due notation thereof is
made on such Bonds.
Section 10.8. Waiver of Default.
With the written consent of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Bonds
then Outstanding, the Owners may waive compliance by the Town with certain past defaults
under this Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent shall be conclusive and binding
upon the Owners and upon all future Owners.
Section 10.9. Execution of Supplemental Indenture.
In executing, or accepting the additional trusts created by, any Supplemental Indenture
permitted by this Article or the modification thereby of the trusts created by this Indenture, the
Trustee shall receive, and shall be fully protected in relying upon, an opinion of counsel
addressed and delivered to the Trustee and the Town stating that the execution of such
Supplemental Indenture is permitted by and in compliance with this Indenture. The Trustee may,
but shall not be obligated to, enter into any such Supplemental Indenture which affects the

ARTICLE XI
DEFAULT AND REMEDIES
Section 11.1. Events of Default.
Each of the following occurrences or events shall be and is hereby declared to be an
"Event of Default," to wit:
(i) The failure of the Town to deposit the Pledged Revenues to the Pledged
Revenue Fund;
(ii) The failure of the Town to enforce the collection of the Assessments
including the prosecution of foreclosure proceedings, in accordance with Section 7.2; and
(iii) Default in the performance or observance of any covenant, agreement or
obligation of the Town under this Indenture and the continuation thereof for a period of ninety
(90) days after written notice specifying such default and requiring same to be remedied shall
have been given to the Town by the Trustee, which may give such notice in its discretion and
shall give such notice at the written request of the Owners of not less than fifty-one percent
(51%) in principal amount of the Bonds Similarly Secured then Outstanding; provided, however,
if the default stated in the notice is capable of cure but cannot reasonably be cured within the
applicable period, the Town shall be entitled to a further extension of time reasonably necessary
to remedy such default so long as corrective action is instituted by the Town within the
applicable period and is diligently pursued until such failure is corrected, but in no event for a
period of time of more than one hundred eighty (180) days after such notice.
Section 11.2. Immediate Remedies for Default.
(a) Subject to Article VIII, upon the happening and continuance of any of the Events
of Default described in Section 11.1, then and in every such case the Trustee may proceed, and
upon the written request of the Owners of not less than fifty-one percent (51%) in principal
amount of the Bonds Similarly Secured then Outstanding hereunder shall proceed, to protect and
enforce the rights of the Owners under this Indenture, by action seeking mandamus or by other
suit, action, or special proceeding in equity or at law, in any court of competent jurisdiction, for
any relief to the extent permitted by Applicable Laws, including, but not limited to, the specific
performance of any covenant or agreement contained herein, or injunction; provided, however,
that no action for money damages against the Town may be sought or shall be permitted.
(b) PURSUANT TO SECTION 11.7, THE PRINCIPAL OF THE BONDS SHALL
NOT BE SUBJECT TO ACCELERATION UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES.
(c) If the assets of the Trust Estate are sufficient to pay all amounts due with respect
to Outstanding Bonds Similarly Secured, in the selection of Trust Estate assets to be used in the
payment of Bonds Similarly Secured due under this Article, the Town shall determine, in its
absolute discretion, and shall instruct the Trustee by Town Order, which Trust Estate assets shall
be applied to such payment and shall not be liable to any Owner or other Person by reason of
such selection and application. In the event that the Town shall fail to deliver to the Trustee such
60
Town Order, the Trustee shall select and liquidate or sell Trust Estate assets as provided in the
following paragraph, and shall not be liable to any Owner, or other Person, or the Town by
reason of such selection, liquidation or sale.
(d) Whenever moneys are to be applied pursuant to this Article XI, irrespective of
and whether other remedies authorized under this Indenture shall have been pursued in whole or
in part, the Trustee may cause any or all of the assets of the Trust Estate, including Investment
Securities, to be sold. The Trustee may so sell the assets of the Trust Estate and all right, title,
interest, claim and demand thereto and the right of redemption thereof, in one or more parts, at
any such place or places, and at such time or times and upon such notice and terms as the Trustee
may deem appropriate and as may be required by law and apply the proceeds thereof in
accordance with the provisions of this Section. Upon such sale, the Trustee may make and
deliver to the purchaser or purchasers a good and sufficient assignment or conveyance for the
same, which sale shall be a perpetual bar both at law and in equity against the Town, and all
other Persons claiming such properties. No purchaser at any sale shall be bound to see to the
application of the purchase money proceeds thereof or to inquire as to the authorization,
necessity, expediency, or regularity of any such sale. Nevertheless, if so requested by the
Trustee, the Town shall ratify and confirm any sale or sales by executing and delivering to the
Trustee or to such purchaser or purchasers all such instruments as may be necessary or, in the
judgment of the Trustee, proper for the purpose which may be designated in such request.
Section 11.3. Restriction on Owner's Action.
(a) No Owner shall have any right to institute any action, suit or proceeding at law or
in equity for the enforcement of this Indenture or for the execution of any trust thereof or any
other remedy hereunder, unless (i) a default has occurred and is continuing of which the Trustee
has been notified in writing as provided in Section 11.1, or of which by such Section it is deemed
to have notice, (ii) such default has become an Event of Default and the Owners of fifty-one
percent (51%) of the aggregate principal amount of the Bonds Similarly Secured then
Outstanding have made written request to the Trustee and offered it reasonable opportunity
either to proceed to exercise the powers hereinbefore granted or to institute such action, suit or
proceeding in its own name, (iii) the Owners have furnished to the Trustee indemnity as provided
in Section 9.2, (iv) the Trustee has for 60 days after such notice failed or refused to exercise the
powers hereinbefore granted, or to institute such action, suit, or proceeding in its own name,
(v) no direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Trustee during such
60-day period by the Owners of fifty-one percent (51%) of the aggregate principal amount of the
Bonds Similarly Secured then Outstanding, and (vi) notice of such action, suit, or proceeding is
given to the Trustee; however, no one or more Owners of the Bonds Similarly Secured shall have
any right in any manner whatsoever to affect, disturb, or prejudice this Indenture by its, his or
their action or to enforce any right hereunder except in the manner provided herein, and that all
proceedings at law or in equity shall be instituted and maintained in the manner provided herein
and for the equal benefit of the Owners of all Bonds Similarly Secured then Outstanding. The
notification, request and furnishing of indemnity set forth above shall, at the option of the
Trustee, be conditions precedent to the execution of the powers and trusts of this Indenture and
to any action or cause of action for the enforcement of this Indenture or for any other remedy
hereunder.
61
(b) Subject to Article VIII, nothing in this Indenture shall affect or impair the right of
any Owner to enforce, by action at law, payment of any Bond at and after the maturity thereof, or
on the date fixed for redemption or the obligation of the Town to pay each Bond issued
hereunder to the respective Owners thereof at the time and place, from the source and in the
manner expressed herein and in the Bonds.
(c) In case the Trustee or any Owners of Bonds Similarly Secured shall have
proceeded to enforce any right under this Indenture and such proceedings shall have been
discontinued or abandoned for any reason or shall have been determined adversely to the Trustee
or any Owners of Bonds Similarly Secured, then and in every such case the Town, the Trustee
and the Owners of Bonds Similarly Secured shall be restored to their former positions and rights
hereunder, and all rights, remedies and powers of the Trustee shall continue as if no such
proceedings had been taken.
Section 11.4. Application of Revenues and Other Moneys After Default.
(a) All moneys, securities, funds and Pledged Revenues and the income therefrom
received by the Trustee pursuant to any right given or action taken under the provisions of this
Article shall, after payment of the cost and expenses of the proceedings resulting in the collection
of such amounts, the expenses (including its counsel), liabilities, and advances incurred or made
by the Trustee and the fees of the Trustee in carrying out this Indenture, during the continuance
of an Event of Default, notwithstanding Section 11.2, be applied by the Trustee, on behalf of the
Town, to the payment of interest and principal or Redemption Price then due on Bonds Similarly
Secured, as follows:
FIRST: To the payment to the Owners entitled thereto all installments of interest then due
in the direct order of maturity of such installments, and, if the amount available shall not
be sufficient to pay in full any installment, then to the payment thereof ratably, according
to the amounts due on such installment, to the Owners entitled thereto, without any
discrimination or preference; and
SECOND: To the payment to the Owners entitled thereto of the unpaid principal of
Outstanding Bonds Similarly Secured, or Redemption Price of any Bonds Similarly
Secured which shall have become due, whether at maturity or by call for redemption, in
the direct order of their due dates and, if the amounts available shall not be sufficient to
pay in full all the Bonds Similarly Secured due on any date, then to the payment thereof
ratably, according to the amounts of principal due and to the Owners entitled thereto,
without any discrimination or preference.
Within thirty (30) days of receipt of such good and available funds, the Trustee may fix a
record date and a payment date for any payment to be made to Owners of Bonds Similarly
Secured pursuant to this Section 11.4.
(b) In the event funds are not adequate to cure any of the Events of Default described
in Section 11.1, the available funds shall be allocated to the Bonds Similarly Secured that are
Outstanding in proportion to the quantity of Bonds Similarly Secured that are currently due and
in default under the terms of this Indenture.
62
(c) The restoration of the Town to its prior position after any and all defaults have
been cured, as provided in Section 11.3, shall not extend to or affect any subsequent default
under this Indenture or impair any right consequent thereon.
Section 11.5. Effect of Waiver.
No delay or omission of the Trustee, or any Owner, to exercise any right or power
accruing upon any default shall impair any such right or power or shall be construed to be a
waiver of any such default or an acquiescence therein; and every power and remedy given by this
Indenture to the Trustee or the Owners, respectively, may be exercised from time to time and as
often as may be deemed expedient.
Section 11.6. Evidence of Ownership of Bonds.
(a) Any request, consent, revocation of consent or other instrument which this

one or more instruments of similar tenor, and shall be signed or executed by such Owners in
person or by their attorneys duly appointed in writing. Proof of the execution of any such

the Bonds shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture (except as otherwise herein
expressly provided) if made in the following manner:

Bonds or the duly appointed attorney authorized to act on behalf of such Owner may be
provided by a guarantee of the signature thereon by a bank or trust company or by the
certificate of any notary public or other officer authorized to take acknowledgments of
deeds, that the Person signing such request or other instrument acknowledged to him the
execution thereof, or by an affidavit of a witness of such execution, duly sworn to before
such notary public or other officer. Where such execution is by an officer of a corporation
or association or a member of a partnership, on behalf of such corporation, association or
partnership, such signature guarantee, certificate, or affidavit shall also constitute
sufficient proof of his authority.
(ii) The ownership of Bonds and the amount, numbers and other identification
and date of holding the same shall be proved by the Register.
(b) Except as otherwise provided in this Indenture with respect to revocation of a
consent, any request or consent by an Owner of any Bond shall bind all future Owners of the
same Bond in respect of anything done or suffered to be done by the Town or the Trustee in
accordance therewith.
Section 11.7. No Acceleration.
In the event of the occurrence of an Event of Default under Section 11.1, the right of
acceleration of any Stated Maturity is not granted as a remedy hereunder and the right of
acceleration under this Indenture is expressly denied.
63

ARTICLE XIV
PAYMENT AND CANCELLATION OF THE BONDS AND SATISFACTION OF THE
INDENTURE
Section 14.1. Trust Irrevocable.
The trust created by the terms and provisions of this Indenture is irrevocable until the
Bonds secured hereby are fully paid or provision is made for their payment as provided in this
Article.
Section 14.2. Satisfaction of Indenture.
If the Town shall pay or cause to be paid, or there shall otherwise be paid to the Owners,
principal of and interest on all of the Bonds, at the times and in the manner stipulated in this
Indenture, and all amounts due and owing with respect to the Bonds have been paid or provided
for, then the pledge of the Trust Estate and all covenants, agreements, and other obligations of
the Town to the Owners of such Bonds, shall thereupon cease, terminate, and become void and
be discharged and satisfied. In such event, the Trustee shall execute and deliver to the Town
copies of all such documents as it may have evidencing that principal of and interest on all of the
Bonds has been paid so that the Town may determine if this Indenture is satisfied; if so, the
Trustee shall pay over or deliver all moneys held by it in the Funds and Accounts held hereunder
to the Person entitled to receive such amounts, or, if no Person is entitled to receive such
amounts, then to the Town.
Section 14.3. Bonds Deemed Paid.
(a) Any Outstanding Bonds shall, prior to the Stated Maturity or redemption date
thereof, be deemed to have been paid and no longer Outstanding within the meaning of this Trust
Indenture (a "Defeased Debt"), and particularly this Article XIV, when payment of the principal
of, premium, if any, on such Defeased Debt, plus interest thereon to the due date thereof
(whether such due date be by reason of maturity, redemption, or otherwise), either (1) shall have
been made in accordance with the terms thereof, or (2) shall have been provided by irrevocably
depositing with the Trustee, in trust, and irrevocably set aside exclusively for such payment, (A)
money sufficient to make such payment or (B) Defeasance Securities, certified by an
independent public accounting firm of national reputation to mature as to principal and interest in
such amount and at such times as will insure the availability, without reinvestment, of sufficient
money to make such payment, and all necessary and proper fees, compensation, and expenses of
the Trustee pertaining to the Bonds with respect to which such deposit is made shall have been
paid or the payment thereof provided for to the satisfaction of the Trustee. Neither Defeasance
Securities nor moneys deposited with the Trustee pursuant to this Section nor principal or
interest payments on any such Defeasance Securities shall be withdrawn or used for any purpose
other than, and shall be held in trust for, the payment of the principal of and interest on the
Bonds. Any cash received from such principal of and interest on such Defeasance Securities
deposited with the Trustee, if not then needed for such purpose, shall, be reinvested in
Defeasance Securities as directed by the Town maturing at times and in amounts sufficient to
pay when due the principal of and interest on the Bonds on and prior to such redemption date or
maturity date thereof, as the case may be. Any payment for Defeasance Securities purchased for
67
the purpose of reinvesting cash as aforesaid shall be made only against delivery of such
Defeasance Securities.
(b) Any determination not to redeem Defeased Debt that is made in conjunction with
the payment arrangements specified in Sections 14.3(a)(1) or 14.3(a)(2) shall not be irrevocable,
provided that: (1) in the proceedings providing for such defeasance, the Town expressly reserves
the right to call the Defeased Debt for redemption; (2) the Town gives notice of the reservation
of that right to the Owners of the Defeased Debt immediately following the defeasance; (3) the
Town directs that notice of the reservation be included in any defeasance or redemption notices
that it authorizes; and (4) at or prior to the time of the redemption, the Town satisfies the

The undersigned, Jefferies LLC (the “Underwriter”), offers to enter into this Agreement
(this “Agreement”) with the Town of Westlake, Texas (the “Town”), which will be binding upon
the Town and the Underwriter upon the acceptance hereof by the Town. This offer is made
subject to its acceptance by the Town by execution of this Agreement and its delivery to the
Underwriter on or before 10:00 p.m., Central Time, on the date hereof and, if not so accepted,
will be subject to withdrawal by the Underwriter upon written notice delivered to the Town at
any time prior to the acceptance hereof by the Town. All capitalized terms not otherwise defined
herein shall have the meanings given to such terms in the Indenture (defined herein) between the
Town and U.S. Bank, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”), authorizing the issuance
of the Bonds (defined herein), and in the Official Statement (defined herein).
1. Purchase and Sale of Bonds. Upon the terms and conditions and upon the basis of
representations, warranties and agreements hereinafter set forth, the Underwriter hereby agrees
to purchase from the Town, and the Town hereby agrees to sell to the Underwriter, all (but not
less than all) of $26,175,000 aggregate principal amount of the Town of Westlake, Texas,
Special Assessment Revenue Bonds, Series 2015 (Solana Public Improvement District) (the
“Bonds”), at a purchase price of $____________ (representing the aggregate principal amount of
the Bonds, less an Underwriter’s discount of $____________).
Inasmuch as this purchase and sale represents a negotiated transaction, the Town
understands, and hereby confirms, that the Underwriter is not acting as a fiduciary of the Town,
but rather is acting solely in its capacity as Underwriter for its own account. The Town
acknowledges and agrees that (i) the purchase and sale of the Bonds pursuant to this Agreement
is an arm’s-length commercial transaction among the Town and the Underwriter, (ii) in
connection therewith and with the discussions, undertakings, and procedures leading up to the
2
HOU:3432279.2
consummation of this transaction, the Underwriter is and has been acting solely as a principal
and is not acting as the agent or fiduciary of the Town, (iii) the Underwriter has not assumed an
advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of the Town with respect to the offering described
herein or the discussions, undertakings, and procedures leading thereto (regardless of whether the
Underwriter has provided other services or is currently providing other services to the Town on
other matters) and the Underwriter has no obligation to the Town with respect to the offering
described herein except the obligations expressly set forth in this Agreement, and (iv) the Town
has consulted its own legal, financial, and other advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate.
The Town further acknowledges and agrees that following the issuance and delivery of the
Bonds, the Underwriter has indicated that it may have periodic discussions with the Town
regarding the expenditure of Bond proceeds and the construction of the projects financed with
the Bonds and, in connection with such discussions, the Underwriter shall be acting solely as a
principal and will not be acting as the agent or fiduciary of, and will not be assuming an advisory
or fiduciary responsibility in favor of, the Town.
The Bonds shall be dated the date of their issuance and delivery and shall have the
maturities and redemption features, if any, and bear interest at the rates per annum shown on
Appendix A hereto. Payment for and delivery of the Bonds, and the other actions contemplated
hereby, shall take place on February 5, 2015 (or such other date as may be agreed to by the Town
and the Underwriter) (the “Closing Date”).
2. Authorization Instruments and Law. The Bonds were authorized by an Ordinance
enacted by the Town Council of the Town (the “Town Council”) on January 15, 2015 (the “Bond

Texas Local Government Code, as amended (the “Act”), and the Indenture of Trust, dated
February 1, 2015, between the Town and the Trustee, authorizing the issuance of the Bonds (the
“Indenture”). The Bonds shall be substantially in the form described in, and shall be secured
under the provisions of, the Indenture.
The Bonds and interest thereon shall be secured by the proceeds of special assessments
(the “Assessments”) levied on the assessable parcels within Improvement Area #1, Improvement
Area #2 and Improvement Area #3 of the Solana Public Improvement District (the “District”)
established by Resolution No. 14-07 (the “Creation Resolution”), enacted by the Town Council
on February 24, 2014, in accordance with the Act. A Service and Assessment Plan (the “Service
and Assessment Plan”) which sets forth the costs of the Improvement Project A Improvements
(as defined in the Indenture) and the method of payment of the Assessments was adopted by the
Town Council on January 15, 2015, pursuant to Ordinance No. ____ (the “Assessment
Ordinance” and, together with the Creation Resolution, the Indenture and the Bond Ordinance,
the “Authorizing Documents”). The Bonds shall be further secured by certain applicable funds
and accounts created under the Indenture.
The Bonds shall be as described in Appendix A, the Indenture and the Official Statement
(defined below).
The proceeds of the Bonds shall be used for (i) paying a portion of the Costs of the
Improvement Project A Improvements (as defined in the Indenture), (ii) paying a portion of the
interest on the Bonds during and after the period of acquisition and construction of the
3
HOU:3432279.2
Improvement Project A Improvements, (iii) funding a reserve fund for payment of principal and
interest on the Bonds, (iv) paying a portion of the costs incidental to the organization of the
District, and (v) paying the costs of issuing the Bonds.
3. Public Offering. Subject to the provisions of the following paragraph, the
Underwriter agrees to make a bona fide public offering of all of the Bonds at prices not to exceed
the public offering prices set forth on the inside cover page of the Official Statement and may
subsequently change such offering prices without any requirement of prior notice. The
Underwriter may offer and sell Bonds to certain dealers (including dealers depositing Bonds into
investment trusts) and others at prices lower than the public offering prices (or yields higher than
the public offering yields) stated on the inside cover page of the Official Statement. On or before
the third (3rd) business day before Closing, the Underwriter shall execute and deliver to Bond
Counsel the Issue Price Certificate, in substantially the form attached hereto as Appendix B.
4. Official Statement.
(a) Delivery of Official Statement. The Town previously has delivered, or
caused to be delivered, to the Underwriter the Preliminary Official Statement for the
Bonds dated December 22, 2014, (the “Preliminary Official Statement”), in a “designated
electronic format,” as defined in the Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board (“MSRB”)
Rule G-32 (“Rule G-32”). The Town will prepare, or cause to be prepared, a final
Official Statement relating to the Bonds (the “Official Statement”) which will be (i) dated
the date of this Agreement, (ii) complete within the meaning of the United States
Securities and Exchange Commission’s Rule 15c2-12, as amended (the “Rule”), (iii) in a
“designated electronic format” and (iv) substantially in the form of the most recent
version of the Preliminary Official Statement provided to the Underwriter before the
execution hereof. The Official Statement, including the cover page thereto, all exhibits,
schedules, appendices, maps, charts, pictures, diagrams, reports, and statements included
or incorporated therein or attached thereto, and all amendments and supplements thereto
that may be authorized for use with respect to the Bonds are collectively referred to
herein as the “Official Statement.” Until the Official Statement has been prepared and is
available for distribution, the Town shall provide to the Underwriter sufficient quantities
(which may be in electronic format) of the Preliminary Official Statement as the
Underwriter deems necessary to satisfy the obligation of the Underwriter under the Rule
with respect to distribution to each potential customer, upon request, of a copy of the
Preliminary Official Statement.
(b) Preliminary Official Statement Deemed Final. The Preliminary Official
Statement has been prepared for use by the Underwriter in connection with the public
offering, sale and distribution of the Bonds. The Town hereby represents and warrants
that the Preliminary Official Statement has been deemed final by the Town as of its date,
except for the omission of such information which is dependent upon the final pricing of
the Bonds for completion, all as permitted to be excluded by Section (b)(1) of the Rule.
(c) Use of Official Statement in Offering and Sale. The Town hereby
authorizes the Official Statement and the information therein contained to be used by the
Underwriter in connection with the public offering and the sale of the Bonds. The Town
4
HOU:3432279.2
consents to the use by the Underwriter prior to the date hereof of the Preliminary Official
Statement in connection with the public offering of the Bonds. The Town shall provide,
or cause to be provided, to the Underwriter as soon as practicable after the date of the
Town’s acceptance of this Agreement (but, in any event, not later than within seven (7)
business days after the Town’s acceptance of this Agreement) copies of the Official
Statement which is complete as of the date of its delivery to the Underwriter. The Town
shall provide the Official Statement, or cause the Official Statement to be provided, (i) in
a “designated electronic format” consistent with the requirements of Rule G-32 and (ii) in
a printed format in such quantity as the Underwriter shall request in order for the
Underwriter to comply with Section (b)(4) of the Rule and the rules of the MSRB.
(d) Updating of Official Statement. If, after the date of this Agreement, up to
and including the date the Underwriter is no longer required to provide an Official
Statement to potential customers who request the same pursuant to the Rule (the earlier of
(i) ninety (90) days from the “end of the underwriting period” (as defined in the Rule)
and (ii) the time when the Official Statement is available to any person from the MSRB,
but in no case less than twenty-five (25) days after the “end of the underwriting period”
for the Bonds), the Town becomes aware of any fact or event which might or would
cause the Official Statement, as then supplemented or amended, to contain any untrue
statement of a material fact or to omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein
or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which
they were made, not misleading, or if it is necessary to amend or supplement the Official
Statement to comply with law, the Town will notify the Underwriter (and for the
purposes of this clause provide the Underwriter with such information as it may from
time to time reasonably request), and if, in the reasonable judgment of the Underwriter,
such fact or event requires preparation and publication of a supplement or amendment to
the Official Statement, the Town will forthwith prepare and furnish, at the Town’s own
expense (in a form and manner approved by the Underwriter), either an amendment or a
supplement to the Official Statement so that the statements therein as so amended and
supplemented will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in
light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading or so that the
Official Statement will comply with law; provided, however, that for all purposes of this
Agreement and any certificate delivered by the Town in accordance herewith, the Town
makes no representations with respect to (i) the descriptions in the Preliminary Official
Statement or the Official Statement of The Depository Trust Company, New York, New
York (“DTC”), or its book-entry-only system, (ii) the Preliminary Official Statement or
the Official Statement under the captions “THE IMPROVEMENT PROJECT A
IMPROVEMENTS,” “THE DEVELOPMENT,” “THE DEVELOPER,” “THE

Developer.” If such notification shall be subsequent to the Closing, the Town, at the
expense of the Developer, shall furnish such legal opinions, certificates, instruments and
other documents as the Underwriter may reasonably deem necessary to evidence the truth
and accuracy of such supplement or amendment to the Official Statement. The Town
shall provide any such amendment or supplement, or cause any such amendment or
supplement to be provided, (i) in a “designated electronic format” consistent with the
5
HOU:3432279.2
requirements of Rule G-32 and (ii) in a printed format in such quantity as the Underwriter
shall request in order for the Underwriter to comply with Section (b)(4) of the Rule and
the rules of the MSRB.
(e) Filing with MSRB. The Underwriter hereby agrees to timely file the
Official Statement with MSRB through its Electronic Municipal Market Access
(“EMMA”) system on or before the date of Closing. Unless otherwise notified in writing
by the Underwriter, the Town can assume that the “end of the underwriting period” for
purposes of the Rule is the date of the Closing.

warrants and covenants to the Underwriter that:

the Bonds, or in any way contests or affects the validity of the Town Documents or the

believes, after reasonable inquiry, to be accurate and complete as of the date hereof, as follows:

similar persons or organizations acting in the capacity of underwriters or wholesalers (including
the Underwriter or members of the selling group or persons that are related to, or controlled by,
or are acting on behalf of or as agents for the undersigned or members of the selling group).
(b) Other than the obligations maturing in (the "Retained Maturity or
Maturities"), the first price at which a substantial amount (i.e., at least 10 percent) of the
principal amount of each maturity of the Bonds was sold to the public is set forth in the Official
Statement. In the case of the Retained Maturities, the Underwriter reasonably expected on the
offering date to sell a substantial amount (i.e., at least 10 percent) of each Retained Maturity at
the initial offering price set forth in the Official Statement. The Official Statement is included in
the transcript for the Bonds and is incorporated herein by reference.
The Underwriter understands that the representations made in this Issue Price Certificate

rendering its opinion to the Issuer that interest on the Bonds is excludable from gross income
thereof for income tax purposes, and (ii) for purposes of completing the IRS Form 8038-G. The
undersigned is certifying only as to facts in existence on the date hereof. Nothing herein
represents the undersigned's interpretation of any laws or the application of any laws to these

TOWN OF WESTLAKE, TEXAS,
SPECIAL ASSESSMENT REVENUE BONDS, SERIES 2014
(SOLANA PUBLIC IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT)
Ladies and Gentlemen:
I am the Town Attorney for the Town of Westlake, Texas (the “Town”), and am
rendering this opinion in connection with the issuance and sale of $26,175,000 Town of
Westlake, Texas, Special Assessment Revenue Bonds, Series 2015 (Solana Public Improvement
District) (the “Bonds”), by the Town, a political subdivision of the State of Texas.
The Bonds are authorized pursuant to Ordinance No. ____ and enacted by the Town
Council of the Town (the “Town Council”) on January 15, 2015 (the “Bond Ordinance”) and
shall be issued pursuant to the provisions of Subchapter A of the Public Improvement District
Act, Chapter 372, Texas Local Government Code, as amended (the “Act”) and the Indenture of
Trust dated as of February 1, 2015 (the “Indenture”) by and between the Town and U.S. Bank,
National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”). Capitalized terms not defined herein shall have
the same meanings as in the Indenture, unless otherwise stated herein.
In connection with rendering this opinion, I have reviewed the:
(a) The Bond Ordinance.
(b) The Resolution No. 14-07 (the “Creation Resolution”) enacted by the Town
Council on February 24, 2014.
(c) The Ordinance No. ____ accepted and approved by Town Council on January 15,
2015, and the Service and Assessment plan attached as an exhibit thereto (the “Special
Assessment Ordinance”).
(d) The Indenture.
(e) The Construction, Funding and Acquisition Agreement dated as of January 15,
2015, executed and delivered by the Town and the Developer (the “Financing Agreement”).
D-2
HOU:3432279.2

by the Town and the Developer (the “Landowner Agreement”).
(g) The Continuing Disclosure Agreement of Issuer, dated as of February 1, 2015,
executed and delivered by the Town and the Dissemination Agent (the “Disclosure Agreement”).
(h) The Agreement Regarding Conveyance of Right of Redemption and Waiver of
Agricultural Valuation, dated as of January 15, 2015, executed and delivered by the Town, the
Developer and the Trustee (the “Redemption Agreement”).
The Bond Ordinance, the Creation Resolution, the Assessment Ordinance, the Financing
Agreement and the Landowner Agreement shall herein after be referred to as the “Authorizing
Documents” and the remaining documents shall herein after be collectively referred to as the
“Town Documents.”
In all such examinations, I have assumed that all signatures on documents and
instruments executed by the Town are genuine and that all documents submitted to me as copies
conform to the originals. In addition, for purposes of this opinion, I have assumed the due
authorization, execution and delivery of the Town Documents by all parties other than the Town.
Based upon and subject to the foregoing and the additional qualifications and
assumptions set forth herein, I am of the opinion that:
1. The Town is a Texas political subdivision and has all necessary power and
authority to enter into and perform its obligations under the Town Documents. The Town has
taken or obtained all actions, approvals, consents and authorizations required of it by applicable
laws in connection with the execution of the Town Documents and the performance of its
obligations thereunder.
2. 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 the best of my knowledge,
threatened against the Town (a) affecting the organization and existence of the Town or the titles
of its officers to their respective offices, (b) in any way questioning the formation or existence of
the District, (c) affecting, contesting or seeking to prohibit, restrain or enjoin the delivery of any
of the Bonds, or the payment, collection or application of any amounts pledged or to be pledged
to pay the principal of and interest on the Bonds, including the special assessments in the Solana
Public Improvement District pursuant to the provisions of the Special Assessment Ordinance and
the Service and Assessment Plan referenced therein, (d) contesting or affecting the validity or
enforceability or the Town’s performance of the Town Documents, (e) contesting the exclusion
of the interest on the Bonds from federal income taxation, or (f) which may result in any material
adverse change relating to the financial condition of the Town; and there is no basis for any
action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or investigation of the nature described in clauses (a) through (f)
of this sentence.
3. The Bond Ordinance, the Creation Resolution and the Assessment Ordinance
were duly enacted by the Town and remain in full force and effect on the date hereof.
D-3
HOU:3432279.2
4. The Financing Agreement, the Landowner Agreement, the Redemption
Agreement, the Indenture and the Continuing Disclosure Agreement of Issuer have been duly
authorized, executed and delivered by the Town and remain legal, valid and binding obligations
of the Town enforceable against the Town in accordance with their terms. However, the
enforceability of the obligations of the Town under such Town Documents may be limited or
otherwise affected by (a) bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other laws
affecting the rights of creditors generally, (b) principles of equity, whether considered at law or
in equity, and (c) the application of Texas law relating to governmental immunity applicable to
governmental entities.
5. The performance by the Town of the obligations under the Town Documents will
not violate any provision of any Federal or Texas constitutional or statutory provision.
6. No further consent, approval, authorization or order of any court or governmental
agency or body or official is required to be obtained by the Town as a condition precedent to the
performance by the Town of its obligations under the Town Documents.
7. The adoption of the Bond Ordinance, the Creation Resolution and the Assessment
Ordinance and the execution and delivery of the Financing Agreement, the Landowner
Agreement, the Redemption Agreement, the Indenture and the Continuing Disclosure Agreement
of Issuer and the compliance with the provisions of the Authorizing Documents and the Town
Documents under the circumstances contemplated thereby (a) do not and will not to my
knowledge in any material respect conflict with or constitute on the part of the Town a breach of
or default under any agreement to which the Town is a party or by which it is bound, and (b) do
not and will not in any material respect conflict with or constitute on the part of the Town a
violation, breach of or default under any existing law, regulation, court order or consent decree to
which the Town is subject.
This opinion may not be relied upon by any other person except those specifically
addressed in this letter.

We have only been engaged by our clients in connection with the Documents (and the

Opinions and Assurances
Based solely upon the foregoing, and subject to the assumptions and limitations set forth
herein, we are of the opinion that:
1. The general partner of the Developer is in good standing and the Developer is
qualified to do business in and in good standing under the laws of the State of Texas.
2. The Developer has the full legal right, power and authority to execute, deliver and
perform its obligations under each of the Documents to which it is a party and has taken all
necessary actions to authorize the execution, distribution and delivery by it of such Documents
and the performance by it of such obligations.
E-4
HOU:3432279.2
3. The execution, delivery and performance by the Developer of the Documents to
which it is a party, and compliance and performance by the Developer with the terms and
provisions thereof and obligations thereunder, will not:
(i) to our knowledge, violate or conflict with any provision of any existing
law, statute, rule or regulation applicable to the Developer by reason of the general conduct of its
business and operation of its assets:
(ii) based solely upon the Developer Certificates and our knowledge, conflict
with or result in the breach of any court decree or order of any governmental body binding upon
or affecting the Developer, the conflict with which or breach of which would have a material,
adverse effect on the ability of the Developer to perform its obligations under the Documents to
which it is a party; or
(iii) contravene or conflict with the Developer Basic Documents.
4. To our knowledge, no consent, approval, authorization or other action by, or filing
with, any governmental authority is required for the execution and delivery by the Developer of
the Documents to which the Developer is a party or the performance of its obligations
thereunder, other than as are required with respect to the financing transaction evidenced
thereby, or if required, and not otherwise obtained, with respect to which the requisite consent,
approval or authorization has been obtained, the requisite filing has been accomplished or the
requisite action has been taken at or prior to the date required therefor.
5. The Developer has duly executed and delivered each of the Documents to which
it is a party, and each of such Documents constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of
the Developer, enforceable against the Developer in accordance with its terms.
6. To our knowledge after reasonable inquiry, there are no actions, suits or
proceedings pending against the Developer in any court of law or equity, or before or by any
governmental instrumentality with respect to (i) its organization or existence or qualification to
do business in the State of Texas; (ii) its authority to execute or deliver the Documents to which
it is a party; (iii) the validity or enforceability against it of such Documents or the transactions
contemplated thereby; (iv) the titles of its officers executing the Documents; (v) the execution
and delivery of the Documents on behalf of the Developer; or (vi) the operations or financial
condition of the Developer that would materially adversely affect those operations or the
financial condition of the Developer.
7. To our knowledge, no taxes or other charges, including, without limitation,
intangible or documentary stamp taxes, mortgage or recording taxes, transfer taxes or similar
charges, are payable to the State of Texas by the Developer on account of its execution or
delivery of any of the Documents or the creation of the indebtedness evidenced or secured by
any of the Documents or the recording or filing of any of the Documents, except for normal
filing or recording fees.
8. In addition, we advise you that no facts have come to our attention that would
lead us to believe that the information set forth in the Official Statement under the captions

attention of those individuals working on this matter on behalf of this firm which would lead us
to believe that such information contains an untrue statement of a material fact or that such
information omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein in order to make the
statements made therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not
misleading.
9. To our knowledge, the execution and delivery of the Developer Basic Documents
and the Documents do not, and the transactions contemplated thereby may be consummated and
the terms and conditions thereof may be observed and performed in a manner that does not,
conflict with or constitute a breach of or default under any loan agreement, indenture, bond note,
resolution, agreement or other instrument to which the Developer is a party or is otherwise
subject which violation, breach or default would materially adversely affect the Developer or the
transactions contemplated by the Documents; nor will any such execution, delivery, adoption,
fulfillment, or compliance result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or other
security interest or encumbrance of any nature whatsoever upon any of the property or assets of
the Developer, except as expressly contemplated by the Documents (a) under the terms of any
such law, administrative regulation, judgment or decree or (b) under any such loan agreement,
indenture, bond note, resolution, agreement, or other instrument.

For these purposes, any event described in the immediately preceding paragraph (12) is

similar officer for the Issuer in a proceeding under the United States Bankruptcy Code or in any other
proceeding under state or federal law in which a court or governmental authority has assumed
jurisdiction over substantially all of the assets or business of the Issuer, or if such jurisdiction has been
assumed by leaving the existing governing body and officials or officers in possession but subject to
the supervision and orders of a court or governmental authority, or the entry of an order confirming a
plan of reorganization, arrangement, or liquidation by a court or governmental authority having
supervision or jurisdiction over substantially all of the assets or business of the Issuer.
Whenever the Issuer obtains knowledge of the occurrence of a Listed Event, the Issuer shall
promptly notify the Dissemination Agent in writing and the Issuer shall direct the Dissemination Agent
to file a notice of such occurrence with the MSRB. The Dissemination Agent shall file such notice no
later than the Business Day immediately following the day on which it receives written notice of such
occurrence from the Issuer. Any such notice is required to be filed within ten (10) Business Days of
the occurrence of such Listed Event.
Additionally, the Issuer shall notify the MSRB, in a timely manner, of any failure by the Issuer
to provide annual audited financial statements or unaudited financial information as required under this
Disclosure Agreement. See Exhibit A hereto for a form for submitting “Notice To MSRB of Failure
To File.”
Any notice under the preceding paragraphs shall be accompanied with the text of the disclosure
that the Issuer desires to make, the written authorization of the Issuer for the Dissemination Agent to
disseminate such information as provided herein, and the date the Issuer desires for the Dissemination
Agent to disseminate the information (which date shall not be more than ten (10) Business Days after
the occurrence of the Listed Event or failure to file).
In all cases, the Issuer shall have the sole responsibility for the content, design and other
elements comprising substantive contents of all disclosures. In addition, the Issuer shall have the sole
responsibility to ensure that any notice required to be filed under this Section 5 is filed within (10)
Business Days of the occurrence of the Listed Event.
(b) The Dissemination Agent shall, within three (3) Business Days of obtaining actual
knowledge of the occurrence of any Listed Event with respect to the Bonds, notify the Disclosure
Representative of such Listed Event. The Dissemination Agent shall not be required to file a notice of
the occurrence of such Listed Event with the MSRB unless and until it receives written instructions
from the Disclosure Representative to do so. It is agreed and understood that the duty to make or cause
to be made the disclosures herein is that of the Issuer and not that of the Trustee or the Dissemination
6
Agent. It is agreed and understood that the Dissemination Agent has agreed to give the foregoing
notice to the Issuer as an accommodation to assist it in monitoring the occurrence of such event, but is
under no obligation to investigate whether any such event has occurred. As used above, “actual
knowledge” means the actual fact or statement of knowing, without a duty to make any investigation
with respect thereto. In no event shall the Dissemination Agent be liable in damages or in tort to the
Participating Underwriter, the Issuer or any Owner or beneficial owner of any interests in the Bonds as
a result of its failure to give the foregoing notice or to give such notice in a timely fashion.
(c) If in response to a notice from the Dissemination Agent under subsection (b), the Issuer
determines that the Listed Event under number 2, 7, 8, 10, 13, or 14 of subparagraph (a) above is not
material under applicable federal securities laws, the Issuer shall promptly notify the Dissemination
Agent and the Trustee (if the Dissemination Agent is not the Trustee) in writing and instruct the
Dissemination Agent not to report the occurrence pursuant to subsection (d).
(d) If the Dissemination Agent has been instructed by the Issuer to report the occurrence of
a Listed Event, the Dissemination Agent shall immediately file a notice of such occurrence with the
MSRB.
SECTION 6. Termination of Reporting Obligations. The obligations of the Issuer and the
Dissemination Agent under this Disclosure Agreement shall terminate upon the legal defeasance, prior
redemption or payment in full of all of the Bonds, when the Issuer is no longer an obligated person
with respect to the Bonds, or upon delivery by the Disclosure Representative to the Dissemination
Agent of an opinion of nationally recognized bond counsel to the effect that continuing disclosure is no
longer required. So long as any of the Bonds remain Outstanding, the Dissemination Agent may
assume that the Issuer is an obligated person with respect to the Bonds until it receives written notice
from the Disclosure Representative stating that the Issuer is no longer an obligated person with respect
to the Bonds, and the Dissemination Agent may conclusively rely upon such written notice with no
duty to make investigation or inquiry into any statements contained or matters referred to in such
written notice. If such termination occurs prior to the final maturity of the Bonds, the Issuer shall give
notice of such termination in the same manner as for a Listed Event with respect to such series of
Bonds under Section 5(d).
SECTION 7. Dissemination Agent. The Issuer may, from time to time, appoint or engage
a Dissemination Agent or successor Dissemination Agent to assist it in carrying out its obligations
under this Disclosure Agreement, and may discharge such Dissemination Agent, with or without
appointing a successor Dissemination Agent. If at any time there is not any other designated
Dissemination Agent, the Issuer shall be the Dissemination Agent. The initial Dissemination Agent
appointed hereunder shall be the Trustee.
SECTION 8. Amendment; Waiver. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this
Disclosure Agreement, the Issuer and the Dissemination Agent may amend this Disclosure Agreement
(and the Dissemination Agent shall not unreasonably withhold its consent to any amendment so
requested by the Issuer), and any provision of this Disclosure Agreement may be waived, provided that
the following conditions are satisfied:
(a) If the amendment or waiver relates to the provisions of Sections 3(a), 4, or 5(a), it may
only be made in connection with a change in circumstances that arises from a change in legal
7
requirements, change in law, or change in the identity, nature or status of an obligated person with
respect to the Bonds, or the type of business conducted;
(b) The undertaking, as amended or taking into account such waiver, would, in the opinion
of nationally recognized bond counsel, have complied with the requirements of the Rule at the time of
the delivery of the Bonds, after taking into account any amendments or interpretations of the Rule, as
well as any change in circumstances; and
(c) The amendment or waiver either (i) is approved by the Owners of the Bonds in the same
manner as provided in the Indenture for amendments to the Indenture with the consent of Owners, or
(ii) does not, in the opinion of nationally recognized bond counsel, materially impair the interests of
the Owners or beneficial owners of the Bonds.
In the event of any amendment or waiver of a provision of this Disclosure Agreement, the
Issuer shall describe such amendment in the next related Annual Issuer Report, and shall include, as
applicable, a narrative explanation of the reason for the amendment or waiver and its impact on the
type (or in the case of a change of accounting principles, on the presentation) of financial information
or operating data being presented by the Issuer. In addition, if the amendment relates to the accounting
principles to be followed in preparing financial statements, (i) notice of such change shall be given in
the same manner as for a Listed Event under Section 5(d), and (ii) the Annual Issuer Report for the
year in which the change is made should present a comparison (in narrative form and also, if feasible,
in quantitative form) between the financial statements as prepared on the basis of the new accounting
principles and those prepared on the basis of the former accounting principles. No amendment which
adversely affects the Dissemination Agent may be made without its prior written consent (which
consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).
SECTION 9. Additional Information. Nothing in this Disclosure Agreement shall be
deemed to prevent the Issuer from disseminating any other information, using the means of
dissemination set forth in this Disclosure Agreement or any other means of communication, or
including any other information in any Annual Issuer Report or notice of occurrence of a Listed Event,
in addition to that which is required by this Disclosure Agreement. If the Issuer chooses to include any
information in any Annual Issuer Report or notice of occurrence of a Listed Event in addition to that
which is specifically required by this Disclosure Agreement, the Issuer shall have no obligation under
this Disclosure Agreement to update such information or include it in any future Annual Bond
Disclosure Report or notice of occurrence of a Listed Event.
SECTION 10. Default. In the event of a failure of the Issuer to comply with any provision
of this Disclosure Agreement, the Dissemination Agent may (and, at the request of any Participating
Underwriter or the Owners of at least 25% aggregate principal amount of Outstanding Bonds, shall,
upon being indemnified to its satisfaction as provided in the Indenture), or any Owner or beneficial
owner of the Bonds may, take such actions as may be necessary and appropriate to cause the Issuer, as
the case may be, to comply with its obligations under this Disclosure Agreement. A default under this
Disclosure Agreement shall not be deemed an Event of Default under the Indenture with respect to the
Bonds, and the sole remedy under this Disclosure Agreement in the event of any failure of the Issuer to
comply with this Disclosure Agreement shall be an action to mandamus or specific performance. A
default under this Disclosure Agreement by the Issuer shall not be deemed a default under the
Disclosure Agreement of Developer by the Developer, and a default under the Disclosure Agreement
8
of the Developer by the Developer shall not be deemed a default under this Disclosure Agreement by
the Issuer.
SECTION 11. Duties, Immunities and Liabilities of Dissemination Agent. The
Dissemination Agent shall not have any duty with respect to the content of any disclosures made
pursuant to the terms hereof. The Dissemination Agent shall have only such duties as are specifically
set forth in this Disclosure Agreement, and no implied covenants shall be read into this Disclosure
Agreement with respect to the Dissemination Agent. To the extent permitted by law, the Issuer agrees
to hold harmless the Dissemination Agent, its officers, directors, employees and agents, but only with
funds to be provided by the Developer or from Assessments collected from the property owners in
Improvement Area #1, Improvement Area #2 and Improvement Area #3 of the District, against any
loss, expense and liabilities which it may incur arising out of or in the exercise or performance of its
powers and duties hereunder, including the costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) of defending
against any claim of liability, but excluding liabilities due to the Dissemination Agent’s negligence or
willful misconduct; provided, however, that nothing herein shall be construed to require the Issuer to
indemnify the Dissemination Agent for losses, expenses or liabilities arising from information
provided to the Dissemination Agent by the Developer or the failure of the Developer to provide
information to the Dissemination Agent as and when required under the Disclosure Agreement of
Developer. The obligations of the Issuer under this Section shall survive resignation or removal of the
Dissemination Agent and payment in full of the Bonds. Nothing in this Disclosure Agreement shall be
construed to mean or to imply that the Dissemination Agent is an “obligated person” under the Rule.
The Dissemination Agent is not acting in a fiduciary capacity in connection with the performance of its
respective obligations hereunder. The fact that the Dissemination Agent may have a banking
relationship with the Issuer or any person with whom the Issuer contracts in connection with the
transaction described in the Indenture, apart from the relationship created by the Indenture or this
Disclosure Agreement, shall not be construed to mean that the Dissemination Agent has actual
knowledge of any event described in Section 5 above, except as may be provided by written notice to
the Dissemination Agent pursuant to this Disclosure Agreement.
The Dissemination Agent may, from time to time, consult with legal counsel of its own
choosing in the event of any disagreement or controversy, or question or doubt as to the construction of
any of the provisions hereof or their respective duties hereunder, and the Dissemination Agent shall not
incur any liability and shall be fully protected in acting in good faith upon the advice of such legal
counsel. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHALL THE DISSEMINATION AGENT OR THE
ISSUER BE LIABLE TO THE OWNER OR BENEFICIAL OWNER OF ANY BOND OR ANY
OTHER PERSON, IN CONTRACT OR TORT, FOR DAMAGES RESULTING IN WHOLE OR IN
PART FROM ANY BREACH BY THE ISSUER OR THE DISSEMINATION AGENT,
RESPECTIVELY, WHETHER NEGLIGENT OR WITHOUT FAULT ON ITS PART, OF ANY
COVENANT SPECIFIED IN THIS DISCLOSURE AGREEMENT, BUT EVERY RIGHT AND
REMEDY OF ANY SUCH PERSON, IN CONTRACT OR TORT, FOR OR ON ACCOUNT OF
ANY SUCH BREACH SHALL BE LIMITED TO AN ACTION FOR MANDAMUS OR SPECIFIC
PERFORMANCE. THE DISSEMINATION AGENT IS UNDER NO OBLIGATION NOR IS IT
REQUIRED TO BRING SUCH AN ACTION.
SECTION 12. Assessment Timeline. The basic expected timeline for the collection of
Assessments and the anticipated procedures for pursuing the collection of delinquent Assessments is
9
set forth in Exhibit C which is intended to illustrate the general procedures expected to be followed in
enforcing the payment of delinquent Assessments.
SECTION 13. No Personal Liability. No covenant, stipulation, obligation or agreement of
the Issuer or Dissemination Agent contained in this Disclosure Agreement shall be deemed to be a
covenant, stipulation, obligation or agreement of any present or future council members, officer, agent
or employee of the Issuer or Dissemination Agent in other than that person's official capacity.
SECTION 14. Severability. In case any section or provision of this Disclosure Agreement,
or any covenant, stipulation, obligation, agreement, act or action, or part thereof made, assumed,
entered into, or taken thereunder or any application thereof, is for any reasons held to be illegal or
invalid, such illegality or invalidity shall not affect the remainder thereof or any other section or
provision thereof or any other covenant, stipulation, obligation, agreement, act or action, or part
thereof made, assumed, entered into, or taken thereunder (except to the extent that such remainder or
section or provision or other covenant, stipulation, obligation, agreement, act or action, or part thereof
is wholly dependent for its operation on the provision determined to be invalid), which shall be
construed and enforced as if such illegal or invalid portion were not contained therein, nor shall such
illegality or invalidity of any application thereof affect any legal and valid application thereof, and
each such section, provision, covenant, stipulation, obligation, agreement, act or action, or part thereof
shall be deemed to be effective, operative, made, entered into or taken in the manner and to the full
extent permitted by law.
SECTION 15. Sovereign Immunity. The Dissemination Agent agree that nothing in this
Disclosure Agreement shall constitute or be construed as a waiver of the Issuer’s sovereign or
governmental immunities regarding liability or suit.
SECTION 16. Beneficiaries. This Disclosure Agreement shall inure solely to the benefit of
the Issuer, the Dissemination Agent, the Participating Underwriter and the Owners and the beneficial
owners from time to time of the Bonds, and shall create no rights in any other person or entity.
Nothing in this Disclosure Agreement is intended or shall act to disclaim, waive or otherwise limit the
duties of the Issuer under federal and state securities laws.
SECTION 17. Dissemination Agent Compensation. The Issuer shall pay or reimburse the
Dissemination Agent, but only with funds to be provided by the Developer or from Assessments
collected from the property owners in Improvement Area #1, Improvement Area #2 and Improvement
Area #3 of the District, for its fees and expenses for the Dissemination Agent’s services rendered in
accordance with this Disclosure Agreement.
SECTION 18. Governing Law. This Disclosure Agreement shall be governed by the laws
of the State of Texas.

counterparts, each of which shall be an original and all of which shall constitute but one and the same
