(Planning Manager Lauren Mecke) The property’s current zoning, established in 2014 (Ord. No. 648-2014), is a Planned Development with the base zoning of C-2 General Commercial (C-2). The request is to amend standards established as part of the 2014 zoning and current C-2 development standards to accommodate the construction of the building materials, hardware (indoors) site improvements and allow additional accessory uses of auto leasing and rental, truck and bus leasing, and trailer rental. A Planned Development (PD) district is intended to provide for combining and mixing of uses allowed in various districts with appropriate regulations and to permit flexibility in the use and design of land and buildings in situations where modification of specific provisions of this article is not contrary to its intent and purpose or significantly inconsistent with the planning on which it is based and will not be harmful to the community. A PD district may be used to permit new and innovative concepts in land utilization. While great flexibility is given to provide special restrictions which will allow development not otherwise permitted, procedures are established herein to insure against misuse of the increased flexibility. A concept plan, Anna Town Center Addition, Block A, Lots 6R, 13-17 accompanies this request. The applicant’s justification letter associated with each of the requests accompanies this request. Proposed Planned Development Stipulations The language in the proposed PD district will modify existing PD standards and current development standards by: • Amending an existing PD stipulations pertaining to outdoor display areas (Garden Centers). - Increase the maximum size of an outdoor display area (garden centers) from 25% to 27%. - Amending the fencing requirements around the outdoor display area to remove the 4’ masonry wall requirement and establish masonry column standards. - Removing the landscaping around the outdoor display area.

No. 648-2014 provided additional accessory uses of tool rental shop and commercial greenhouse. However, the proposed tenant has additional services that they offer but those uses are not allowed by the zoning. - Staff recommends allowing the following accessory uses when associated with a Building Materials, hardware (indoor) use: - Auto Leasing and Rental, - Truck and Bus Leasing, and - Trailer Rental • Amend the parking space requirements for a building materials, hardware (indoor) use. - §9.04.037 (Parking space Regulations) and the Planned Development defines the parking space requirements for retailers/retail uses as 4 spaces per 1,000 square feet of gross floor area. - The request is to reduce the required parking to 3 spaces per 1,000 square feet of gross floor area and include the garden center but exclude the other display areas. - Parking spaces intended for auto leasing and rental, truck and bus leasing, tool rental, trailer rental, and seasonal sales area will not count towards the overall provided parking to meet the minimum required parking. • Increase the maximum wall sign sizes for a building materials, hardware (indoor) use as shown in the sign exhibit (Exhibit C). - §9.05.85 limits an individual major attached sign (“wall sign”) to a maximum of 200 square feet and total wall signs to 400 square feet. - In Exhibit C, the applicant illustrates the signage they are requesting.

Conduct a Public Hearing on the Proposed FY2024 Budget. (Budget Manager Terri Doby) The Annual Budget is one of the most important financial responsibilities of a local government, and preparation of the budget typically takes 6 months to complete. The Annual Budget is developed through an extensive process of reviewing requests received from various City departments, then prioritizing those requests in a manner that utilizes resources effectively, within fiscal constraints, while working to achieve the City's strategic goals. The proposed budget was presented to the City Council on August 8th and can be found on our website at www.annatexas.gov/912/Budget The proposed budget is funded by a property tax rate of $0.510717, which is lower than the current tax rate. When compared with other cities in our area, the City of Anna continues to have one of the lowest per-capita property tax levies. According to the most recent population estimates, the City of Anna’s population is approximately 23,960. We anticipate a steady increase of 7 to 10 percent annual growth over the next few years. As Anna continues to grow, the City remains committed to its Strategic Success Statements. The FY2024 budget is designed to preserve and enhance the quality of existing services and respond appropriately to our city’s continuing growth and development. The Council will vote to adopt the FY2024 budget on September 12, 2023. Mayor Pro Tem Miller opened the public hearing at 6:19 PM. No comments. Mayor Pro Tem Miller closed the public hearing at 6:19 PM. b. Conduct a Public Hearing on the Proposed FY2024 Tax Rate. (Budget Manager Terri Doby) At the Tuesday, August 8th meeting, the City Council set the date, time and location of tonight’s public hearing on the FY2024 proposed tax rate as required by the Texas Tax Code. The Notice of Public Hearing was published in the Anna Melissa Tribune on August 17, 2023. After properties are appraised by the Collin County Appraisal District, the Collin County Tax Assessor-Collector calculates both the No-New-Revenue tax rate and the Voter Approval tax rate for the City of Anna as the designated officer to complete the tax rate calculation forms created by the Texas Comptroller and to certify the calculations as accurate. No-New-Revenue tax rate: The No-New-Revenue tax rate is a calculated rate that would provide the taxing unit with the same amount of maintenance and operations property taxes on existing property as the previous year after taking into account changes in appraised value. If property values rise, the No-New-Revenue tax rate will go down and vice versa. The No-New Revenue tax rate for FY2024 is $0.464353 per $100. Voter-Approval tax rate: The Voter-Approval tax rate provides the taxing unit with the same amount of maintenance and operations property taxes on existing property as the previous year plus a 3.5 percent increase for those operations, in addition to sufficient funds to pay debts in the coming year. If a taxing unit adopts a tax rate higher than the Voter-Approval tax rate, a tax rate approval election must be held on the November uniform election date. The Voter-Approval tax rate for FY2024 is $0.507024 per $100. De minimis rate: The De minimis rate is the rate equal to the sum of the taxing unit’s current debt rate, the no-new-revenue maintenance and operations rate, and the rate that when applied to a taxing unit’s current total value, will impose an amount of taxes equal to $500,000. The de minimis rate is an option for small cities with a population of 30,000 or less. The De Minimis rate for FY2024 is $0.510717 per $100. The proposed budget is supported by a tax rate of $0.510717. Under the Texas Property Tax Reform and Transparency Act of 2019, a city that adopts a rate exceeding the lower of the No-New-Revenue tax rate or the Voter-Approval tax rate must hold one public hearing. The following table is a comparison between the proposed tax rate, last year's rate, the No-New-Revenue rate, the De Minimis rate and Voter-Approval tax rate. The budget and tax rate are scheduled for adoption at the September 12th City Council meeting. Since the proposed tax rate is higher than the No-New-Revenue rate, section 26.05 of the Texas Tax Code requires a minimum of 60% of the Council members to vote in favor of that rate. That would require at least 5 Council members to vote in favor of the proposed tax rate. Mayor Pro Tem Miller opened the public hearing at 6:22 PM. No comments. Mayor Pro Tem Miller closed the public hearing at 6:22 PM. 5. Closed Session (Exceptions). Under Tex.

(b) In the event that any Bond is lost, apparently destroyed or wrongfully taken, the City shall issue and 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 20 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 City 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 City 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 City 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 City, the Paying Agent/Registrar or the Trustee in connection therewith. (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 City 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 3.12. 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 blanket issuer letter of representations from the City to DTC. On the Delivery 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 City 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 City 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 with respect to any ownership interest in 21 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 City 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 City’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 City 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 or Special Record Date, as applicable, the word "Cede & Co." in this Indenture shall refer to such new nominee of DTC. Section 3.13. Successor Securities Depository: Transfer Outside Book-Entry-Only System. In the event that the City determines that DTC is incapable of discharging its responsibilities described herein and in the blanket issuer letter of representations from the City to DTC, the City 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 3.14. 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 City to DTC. 22 ARTICLE IV REDEMPTION OF BONDS BEFORE MATURITY Section 4.1.

(b) At least thirty (30) days prior to each mandatory sinking fund redemption date, and subject to any prior reduction authorized by this Indenture, the Trustee shall select 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 Installment amount 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 mandatory sinking fund redemption, as provided in Section 4.6. (c) The principal amount of Bonds required to be redeemed on any mandatory sinking fund redemption date pursuant to subparagraph (a) of this Section 4.2 shall be reduced, at the option of the City, by the principal amount of any Bonds of such maturity which, at least 30 days prior to the mandatory sinking fund redemption date shall have been acquired by the City at a price not exceeding the principal amount of such Bonds plus accrued unpaid interest to the date of purchase thereof, and delivered to the Trustee for cancellation. (d) The Sinking Fund Installments of Term Bonds required to be redeemed on any mandatory sinking fund redemption date pursuant to subparagraph (a) of this Section 4.2 shall be reduced in integral multiples of $1,000 by any portion of such Bonds, which, at least 30 days prior to the mandatory sinking fund redemption date, shall have been redeemed pursuant to the optional redemption or extraordinary optional redemption provisions in Sections 4.3 and 4.4, respectively, hereof, and not previously credited to a mandatory sinking fund redemption. Section 4.3. Optional Redemption.

Section 4.5. Partial Redemption. (a) If less than all of the Bonds are to be redeemed pursuant to either Sections 4.2, 4.3 or 4.4, Bonds may be redeemed in minimum principal amounts of $1,000 or any integral thereof. Each Bond shall be treated as representing the number of Bonds that is obtained by dividing the principal amount of such Bond by $1,000. No redemption shall result in a Bond in a denomination of less than an Authorized Denomination; provided, however, if the amount of Outstanding Bonds is less than an Authorized Denomination after giving effect to such partial redemption, a Bond in the principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion, but not less than $1,000, may be issued. (b) If less than all of the Bonds are called for optional redemption pursuant to Section 4.3 hereof, the Trustee shall rely on directions provided in a City Certificate in selecting the Bonds to be redeemed.

Section 4.6. Notice of Redemption to Owners. (a) Upon written direction from the City to the Trustee of the exercise of any redemption provision provided hereunder, 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 portion thereof to be redeemed, at the address shown in the Register. (b) 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, and subject to Section 4.5, an identification of the Bonds or portions thereof to be redeemed, any conditions to such redemption and that on the redemption date, if all conditions, if any, to such redemption have been satisfied, such Bond shall become due and payable. (c) Any notice given as provided in this Section shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given, whether or not the Owner receives such notice. (d) 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 City may condition redemption on the receipt 25 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 shall be of no force and effect, the City 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. (e) The City has the right to rescind any optional redemption or extraordinary optional redemption described in Section 4.3 or 4.4 by written notice to the Trustee on or prior to the date fixed for redemption. Any notice of redemption shall be cancelled and annulled if for any reason funds are not available on the date fixed for redemption for the payment in full of the Bonds then called for redemption, and such cancellation shall not constitute an Event of Default under this Indenture. Upon written direction from the City, the Trustee shall mail notice of rescission of redemption in the same manner notice of redemption was originally provided. Section 4.7. Payment Upon Redemption. (a) The Trustee shall make provision for the payment of the Bonds to be redeemed on such date by setting aside and holding in trust an amount from the Redemption Fund or otherwise received by the Trustee from the City and shall use such funds solely for the purpose of paying the Redemption Price on the Bonds being redeemed. (b) Upon presentation and surrender of any Bond called for redemption at the designated corporate trust office of the Trustee on or after the date fixed for redemption, the Trustee shall pay the Redemption Price on such Bond to the date of redemption from the moneys set aside for such purpose. Section 4.8. Effect of Redemption. Notice of redemption having been given as provided in Section 4.6 of this Indenture, the Bonds or portions thereof called for redemption shall become due and payable on the date fixed for redemption provided that funds for the payment of the Redemption Price of such Bonds to the date fixed for redemption are on deposit with the Trustee; thereafter, such Bonds or portions thereof shall cease to bear interest from and after the date fixed for redemption, whether or not such Bonds are presented and surrendered for payment on such date.

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. IN THE INDENTURE, THE CITY HAS RESERVED THE RIGHT to issue Refunding Bonds payable from and secured by a lien on and pledge of the sources described above on a parity with this Bond. Notwithstanding any provision hereof, the Indenture may be released and the obligation of the City 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 $100,000 and any multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof ("Authorized Denominations"). Except to the extent permitted by the Indenture, the City prohibits the breaking up or allocation of CUSIP numbers to any Bond or Bonds in denominations of less than $100,000, and any attempt to do so will be void and of no effect. The Bonds maturing on September 15 in the years 20__, 20__ and 20__ (collectively, "Term Bonds"), are subject to mandatory sinking fund redemption prior to their respective maturities and will be redeemed by the City in part at the Redemption Price from moneys available for such purpose in the Principal and Interest Account of the Bond Fund pursuant to Article VI of the Indenture, on the dates and in the respective sinking fund installments as set forth in the following schedule: Term Bonds maturing September 15, 20__ Redemption Date Sinking Fund Installment Amount September 15, 20__ September 15, 20__ September 15, 20__ September 15, 20__ September 15, 20__ September 15, 20__ September 15, 20__ September 15, 20__ September 15, 20__ 29 September 15, 20__* Term Bonds maturing September 15, 20__ Redemption Date Sinking Fund Installment Amount September 15, 20__ September 15, 20__ September 15, 20__ September 15, 20__ September 15, 20__ September 15, 20__ September 15, 20__ September 15, 20__ September 15, 20__ September 15, 20__* Term Bonds maturing September 15, 20__ Redemption Date Sinking Fund Installment Amount September 15, 20__ September 15, 20__ September 15, 20__ September 15, 20__ September 15, 20__ September 15, 20__ September 15, 20__ September 15, 20__ September 15, 20__ September 15, 20__* __________ * Stated Maturity. At least thirty (30) days prior to each mandatory sinking fund redemption date, and subject to any prior reduction authorized by the Indenture, 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 mandatory sinking fund redemption date shall be reduced, at the option of the City, 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 City 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 Sinking Fund Installments of Term Bonds required to be redeemed on any mandatory sinking fund redemption shall be reduced in integral multiples of $1,000 by any portion of such Bonds, which, at least 30 days prior to the mandatory sinking fund redemption date, shall have been redeemed pursuant to the optional redemption or extraordinary optional 30 redemption provisions in the Indenture and not previously credited to a mandatory sinking fund redemption. The City 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 15, 20__, such redemption date or dates to be fixed by the City, at the Redemption Price. The Bonds are subject to extraordinary optional redemption prior to maturity in whole or in part, on any date, at the Redemption Price 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. If less than all of the Bonds are to be redeemed, Bonds may be redeemed in minimum principal amounts of $1,000 or any integral thereof. Each Bond shall be treated as representing the number of Bonds that is obtained by dividing the principal amount of such Bond by $1,000. No redemption shall result in a Bond in a denomination of less than an Authorized Denomination; provided, however, if the amount of Outstanding Bonds is less than an Authorized Denomination after giving effect to such partial redemption, a Bond in the principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion, but not less than $1,000, may be issued. If less than all of the Bonds are called for optional redemption, the Trustee shall rely on directions provided in a City Certificate in selecting the Bonds to be redeemed. If less than all of the Bonds are called for extraordinary optional redemption, the Bonds to be redeemed shall be allocated on a pro rata basis (as nearly as practicable) among all Outstanding Bonds. Upon written direction from the City to the Trustee of the exercise of any redemption provision provided under 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 portion 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 conditions to such redemption and that on the redemption date, if all conditions, if any, to such redemption have been satisfied, such Bond shall become due and payable. 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 City 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 shall be of no force and effect, the City 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. 31 The City has the right to rescind any optional redemption or extraordinary optional redemption described in the Indenture by written notice to the Trustee on or prior to the date fixed for redemption. Any notice of redemption shall be cancelled and annulled if for any reason funds are not available on the date fixed for redemption for the payment in full of the Bonds then called for redemption, and such cancellation shall not constitute an Event of Default under the Indenture. Upon written direction from the City, the Trustee shall mail notice of rescission of redemption in the same manner notice of redemption was originally provided. The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the City 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 City 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 and/or opinion of counsel as may be required under the Indenture for the transfer of this Bond. Upon satisfaction of such requirements, one or more new fully registered Bonds of the same Stated Maturity, of Authorized Denominations, bearing the same rate of interest, and for the same aggregate principal amount will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees. Neither the City nor the Trustee shall be required to issue, transfer or exchange any Bond called for redemption where such redemption is scheduled to occur within 45 calendar days of the transfer or exchange date; provided, however, such limitation shall not be applicable to an exchange by the registered owner of the uncalled principal balance of a Bond. The City, the Trustee, and any other Person may treat the Person in whose name this Bond is registered as the owner hereof for the purpose of receiving payment as herein provided (except interest shall be paid to the Person in whose name this Bond is registered on the Record Date or Special Record Date, as applicable) and for all other purposes, whether or not this Bond be overdue, and neither the City nor the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary. NEITHER THE FULL FAITH AND CREDIT NOR THE GENERAL TAXING POWER OF THE CITY, COLLIN COUNTY, TEXAS, OR THE STATE OF TEXAS, OR ANY POLITICAL SUBDIVISION THEREOF, IS PLEDGED TO THE PAYMENT OF THE BONDS. IT IS HEREBY CERTIFIED AND RECITED that the issuance of this Bond and the series of which it is a part is duly authorized by law; that all acts, conditions and things required to be done precedent to and in the issuance of the Bonds have been properly done and performed 32 and have happened in regular and due time, form and manner, as required by law; and that the total indebtedness of the City, including the Bonds, does not exceed any Constitutional or statutory limitation.

(c) If, after the foregoing transfers and any transfer from the Reserve Fund as provided in Section 6.7, there are insufficient funds to make the payments provided in paragraph (b) above, the Trustee shall apply the available funds in the Principal and Interest Account first to the payment of interest, then to the payment of principal (including any Sinking Fund Installments) on the Bonds. (d) The Trustee shall transfer Prepayments to the Redemption Fund to be used to redeem Bonds pursuant to Section 4.4 promptly after deposit of such amounts into the Pledged Revenue Fund. (e) Promptly after the deposit of Foreclosure Proceeds into the Pledged Revenue Fund, the Trustee shall transfer such Foreclosure Proceeds first to the Reserve Fund to restore any transfers from the Accounts within the Reserve Fund made with respect to the particular Assessed Property to which the Foreclosure Proceeds relate (first, to replenish the Reserve Account Requirement and second, to replenish the Delinquency and Prepayment Reserve Requirement), and second, to the Redemption Fund to be used to redeem Bonds pursuant to Section 4.4.

(b) (1) Disbursements from the Costs of Issuance Account of the Project Fund shall be made by the Trustee to pay costs of issuance of the Bonds pursuant to one or more City Certificates. (2) Disbursements from the Improvement Area #1 Bond Improvement Account of the Project Fund to pay Improvement Area #1 Project Costs shall be made by the Trustee upon receipt by the Trustee of a properly executed and completed Certificate for Payment. The funds from the Improvement Area #1 Bond Improvement Account of the Project Fund shall be disbursed in accordance with a Certificate for Payment for Improvement Area #1 Project Costs as described in the Reimbursement Agreement. Each such Certificate for Payment shall include a list of the payees and the payments to be made to such payees as well as a statement that all payments shall be made by check or wire transfer in accordance with the payment instructions set forth in such Certificate for Payment or in the invoices submitted therewith and the Trustee may rely on such payment instructions with no duty to investigate or inquire as to the authenticity of or authorization for the invoice or the payment instructions contained therein. (c) Except as provided in Section 6.5(d), (f) and (h), money on deposit in the Improvement Area #1 Bond Improvement Account of the Project Fund shall be used solely to pay Improvement Area #1 Project Costs. (d) If the City Representative determines in his or her sole discretion that certain amounts then on deposit in the Improvement Area #1 Bond Improvement Account 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 Area #1 Projects such that, in the opinion of the City Representative, it is unlikely that the amounts in the Improvement Area #1 Bond Improvement Account will ever be expended for the purposes of the Project Fund, the City Representative shall file a City Certificate with the Trustee which identifies the amounts then on deposit in the Improvement Area #1 Bond Improvement Account that are not expected to be used for purposes of the Project Fund. If such City Certificate is so filed, the identified amounts on deposit in the Improvement Area #1 Bond Improvement Account shall be transferred to the Bond Fund or to the Redemption Fund to be used to redeem Bonds pursuant to Section 4.4 as directed by the City Representative in a City Certificate filed with the Trustee. Upon such transfer, the Improvement Area #1 Bond Improvement Account of the Project Fund shall be closed. (e) In making any determination pursuant to this Section, the City Representative may conclusively rely upon a certificate of an Independent Financial Consultant. (f) Upon the filing of a City Certificate stating that all Improvement Area #1 Projects have been completed and that all Improvement Area #1 Project Costs have been paid, or that any Improvement Area #1 Projects are not required to be paid from the Project Fund pursuant to a Certificate for Payment, the Trustee shall transfer the amount, if any, remaining within the Improvement Area #1 Bond Improvement Account of the Project Fund to the Bond Fund or to the Redemption Fund to be used to redeem Bonds pursuant to Section 4.4 as directed by the City 39 Representative in a City Certificate filed with the Trustee. Upon such transfer, the Improvement Area #1 Bond Improvement Account of the Project Fund shall be closed. (g) Upon a determination by the City 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 the Improvement Area #1 Bond Improvement Account of the Project Fund and used to pay Improvement Area #1 Project Costs or to the Principal and Interest Account and used to pay interest on the Bonds, as directed in a City Certificate filed with the Trustee, and the Costs of Issuance Account shall be closed. (h) In the event the Developer has not completed the Improvement Area #1 Projects by October 10, 2028, then the City shall provide written direction to the Trustee to transfer all funds on deposit in the Improvement Area #1 Bond Improvement Account to the Redemption Fund to redeem Bonds pursuant to Section 4.4 hereof. Upon such transfers, the Improvement Area #1 Bond Improvement Account of the Project Fund shall be closed. (i) In providing any disbursement under this Section, the Trustee may conclusively rely as to the completeness and accuracy of all statements in such Certificate for Payment if such certificate is signed by a City Representative, and the Trustee shall not be required to make any independent investigation in connection therewith. The execution of any Certificate for Payment by a City Representative shall constitute, unto the Trustee, an irrevocable determination that all conditions precedent to the payments requested have been completed. Section 6.6. Redemption Fund. The Trustee, pursuant to a City Certificate, 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. 40 Section 6.7. Reserve Fund. (a) The City agrees with the Owners of the Bonds to accumulate and, when accumulated, maintain in the Reserve Account, an amount equal to not less than the Reserve Account Requirement. All amounts deposited in the Reserve Account 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 Bond Pledged Revenue Account of the Pledged Revenue Fund to the Delinquency and Prepayment Reserve Account on March 15 of each year, commencing March 15, 2024, an amount the City confirms to the Trustee is equal to the Additional Interest until the Delinquency and Prepayment Reserve Requirement has been accumulated in the Delinquency and Prepayment Reserve Account; provided, however, that at any time the amount on deposit in the Delinquency and Prepayment Reserve Account is less than Delinquency and Prepayment Reserve Requirement, the Trustee shall resume depositing the Additional Interest into the Delinquency and Prepayment Reserve Account until the Delinquency and Prepayment Reserve Requirement has accumulated in the Delinquency and Prepayment Reserve Account. In transferring the amounts pursuant to this Section, the Trustee may conclusively rely on a City Certificate (which shall be based on the Annual Installments as shown on the Assessment Roll in the Service and Assessment Plan) unless and until it receives a City Certificate directing that a different amount be used. Whenever a transfer is made from the Reserve Account to the Bond Fund due to a deficiency in the Bond Fund, the Trustee shall provide written notice thereof to the City, specifying the amount withdrawn and the source of said funds. The Additional Interest shall continue to be collected and deposited pursuant to this Section 6.7 until the Bonds are no longer Outstanding. (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 City, 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 a City Certificate, 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 Prepayment, the Trustee shall transfer an amount equal to the shortfall, or any additional amounts necessary to permit the Bonds to be redeemed in minimum principal amounts of $1,000, from the Delinquency and 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 written request of a City Representative, the value of cash and Value of Investment Securities on deposit in the Reserve Account exceeds the Reserve Account Requirement, the Trustee shall provide 41 written notice to the City 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 City Representative, the Trustee receives a City Certificate 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 Annual Collection Costs for the Bonds, (iii) to the Improvement Area #1 Bond Improvement Account of the Project Fund to pay Improvement Area #1 Project Costs if such application and the expenditure of funds is expected to occur within three years of the date hereof, or (iv) to the Redemption Fund to be applied to the redemption of Bonds. (e) Whenever, on any Interest Payment Date, or on any other date at the written request of a City Representative, the amounts on deposit in the Delinquency and Prepayment Reserve Account exceed the Delinquency and Prepayment Reserve Requirement, the Trustee shall provide written notice to the City of the amount of the excess, and such excess shall be transferred, at the direction of the City pursuant to a City Certificate, to the Administrative Fund for the payment of Annual Collection Costs or to the Redemption Fund to be used to redeem Bonds pursuant to Section 4.4. In the event that the Trustee does not receive a City Certificate directing the transfer of such excess to the Administrative Fund within 45 days of providing notice to the City of such excess, the Trustee shall transfer such excess to the Redemption Fund to redeem Bonds pursuant to Section 4.4 hereof and provide the City with written notification of the transfer. The Trustee shall incur no liability for the accuracy or validity of the transfer so long as the Trustee made such transfer in full compliance with this Section. (f) Whenever, on any Interest Payment Date, the amount on deposit in the Bond Fund is insufficient to pay the debt service on the Bonds due on such date, the Trustee shall transfer first from the Delinquency and Prepayment Reserve Account of the Reserve Fund and second from the Reserve Account of the Reserve Fund to the Bond Fund the amounts necessary to cure such deficiency. (g) At the final maturity of the Bonds, the amount on deposit in the Reserve Account and the Delinquency and Prepayment Reserve Account shall be transferred to the Principal and Interest Account and applied to the payment of the principal of the Bonds. (h) If, after a Reserve Account withdrawal, the amount on deposit in the Reserve Account is less than the Reserve Account 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. (i) 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 on the next date the Bonds may be optionally redeemed by the City at a redemption price of par, together with the unpaid interest accrued on such Bonds as of such date, the moneys shall be transferred to the Redemption Fund and thereafter used to redeem all Bonds on such date. 42 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 City’s federal tax certificate for the Bonds, as further set forth in written directions from the City to the Trustee. The Trustee may conclusively rely on such written instructions as set forth in this Section and shall not be responsible for any loss or liability resulting from the investment of funds under this Section, but only so long as the Trustee follows such written instructions in all respects. (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 written instructions of the City and shall not be required to take any action under this Section in the absence of instructions from the City. (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 City may direct the Trustee, pursuant to a City Certificate, to transfer the amount in excess of the Rebatable Arbitrage to the Bond Fund. Section 6.9. Administrative Fund. (a) Periodically upon receipt thereof, the City shall deposit or cause to be deposited to the Administrative Fund the portion of the Assessments and Annual Installments allocated to the payment of Annual Collection Costs 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 City Certificate solely for the purposes set forth in the Service and Assessment Plan, including payment of Annual Collection Costs 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. Investment of Funds. (a) Money in any Fund or Account, other than the Reserve Fund, shall be invested by the Trustee in Investment Securities as directed by the City pursuant to a City Certificate filed with the Trustee; 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 Fund shall be invested in such Investment Securities as directed by the City pursuant to a City Certificate 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 City Certificate shall be a certification, upon which the Trustee may conclusively rely without investigation or inquiry, that the investment directed therein constitutes 43 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 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 City does not give the Trustee written or timely instructions with respect to investments of funds, the Trustee is hereby directed to invest and re-invest cash balances in Morgan Stanley, Fidelity or Federated family of funds, but only so long as such funds are authorized investments and permitted under the Public Funds Investment Act, Texas Government Code, Chapter 2256, as amended, or any successor law, and only 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 be deemed to be part of such Fund or Account, subject, however, to the requirements of this Indenture for transfer of interest earnings and profits resulting from investment of amounts in Funds and Accounts. Whenever in this Indenture any moneys are required to be transferred by the City to the Trustee, such transfer may be accomplished by transferring a like amount of Investment Securities as directed by the City in writing. (c) The Trustee and its affiliates may act as sponsor, advisor, depository, principal or agent in the acquisition or disposition of any investment. The Trustee shall not incur any liability for losses arising from any investments made pursuant to this Section. The Trustee shall not be required to determine the suitability or legality of any investments or whether investments comply with Section 6.10(a) above. The parties acknowledge that the Trustee is not providing investment supervision, recommendations, or advice. (d) Investments in any and all Funds and Accounts may be commingled in a separate fund or funds for purposes of making, holding and disposing of investments, notwithstanding provisions herein for transfer to or holding in or to the credit of particular Funds or Accounts of amounts received or held by the Trustee hereunder, provided that the Trustee shall at all times account for such investments strictly in accordance with the Funds and Accounts to which they are credited and otherwise as provided in this Indenture. (e) The Trustee will furnish to the City, upon the City’s written request, periodic cash transaction statements which include detail for all investment transactions effected by the Trustee or brokers selected by the City. Upon the City’s election, such statements will be delivered via the Trustee’s online service and upon electing such service, paper statements will be provided only upon request. The City waives the right to receive brokerage confirmations of security transactions effected by the Trustee as they occur, to the extent permitted by law. The City further understands that trade confirmations for securities transactions effected by the Trustee 44 will be available upon request and at no additional cost and other trade confirmations may be obtained from the applicable broker. (f) In the event it is found, after an annual calculation has been done pursuant to Section 6.8 hereof, that the City owes Rebatable Arbitrage to the United States Government, the City shall direct the Trustee, pursuant to a City Certificate, to transfer to the Rebate Fund the investment earnings on funds on deposit in the Pledged Funds in an amount equal to the Rebatable Arbitrage owed by the City. The City Certificate shall specify the amount to the transferred and the Pledged Fund or Pledged Funds from which the investment earnings shall be transferred. Section 6.11. Security of Funds. All Funds heretofore created or reaffirmed, to the extent not invested as herein permitted, shall be secured in the manner and to the fullest extent required by law for the security of public funds, and such Funds shall be used only for the purposes and in the manner permitted or required by this Indenture. ARTICLE VII COVENANTS Section 7.1. Confirmation of Assessments. The City hereby confirms, covenants, and agrees that, in the Assessment Ordinance, it has levied the Assessments against the Assessed Property from which the Assessment Revenues will be collected and received. Section 7.2. Collection and Enforcement of Assessments. (a) For so long as any Bonds are Outstanding, the City covenants, agrees and warrants that it will take and pursue all reasonable actions permissib1e under Applicable Laws to cause the Assessments to be collected and the liens thereof enforced continuously, in the manner and to the maximum extent permitted by Applicable Laws, and to cause no reduction, abatement or exemption in the Assessments. (b) To the extent permitted by law, notice of the Annual Installments shall be sent by, or on behalf of, the City to the affected property owners on the same statement or such other mechanism that is used by the City, so that such Annual Installments are collected simultaneously with ad 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 City. (c) The City will determine or cause to be determined, no later than February 15 of each year, whether or not any Annual Installment is delinquent and, if such delinquencies exist, the City will order and cause to be commenced as soon as practicable any and all appropriate and legally permissible actions to obtain such Annual Installment, and any delinquent charges and interest thereon, including diligently prosecuting an action in district court to foreclose the currently delinquent Annual Installment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the City shall not be 45 required under any circumstances to purchase or make payment for the purchase of the delinquent Assessments or the corresponding particular Assessed Property. (d) The City shall not be required under any circumstances to expend any funds for Delinquent Collection Costs or Annual Collection Costs in connection with its covenants and agreements under this Section or otherwise other than funds on deposit in the Administrative Fund. Section 7.3. Against Encumbrances. (a) Other than Refunding Bonds issued to refund all or a portion of the Bonds, the City shall not create and, to the extent Pledged Revenues are received, shall not suffer to remain, any lien, encumbrance or charge upon the Trust Estate or upon any other property pledged under this Indenture, except the pledge created for the security of the Bonds, and other than a lien or pledge subordinate to the lien and pledge of such property related to the Bonds. (b) So long as Bonds are Outstanding hereunder, the City shall not issue any bonds, notes or other evidences of indebtedness, other than the Bonds and any Refunding Bonds issued to refund all or a portion of the Bonds, secured by any pledge of or other lien or charge on the Trust Estate or other property pledged under this Indenture, other than a lien or pledge subordinate to the lien and pledge of such property related to the Bonds. Section 7.4. Records, Accounts, Accounting Reports. The City hereby covenants and agrees that so long as any Bonds are Outstanding, it will keep and maintain a proper and complete system of records and accounts pertaining to the Assessments. The Trustee and holder or holders of any Bonds or any duly authorized agent or agents of such holders shall have the right at all reasonable times to inspect all such records, accounts, and data relating thereto, upon written request to the City by the Trustee or duly authorized representative, as applicable. The City shall provide the Trustee or duly authorized representative, as applicable, an opportunity to inspect such books and records relating to the Bonds during the City’s regular business hours and on a mutually agreeable date not later than twenty days after the City receives such request. Section 7.5. Covenants Regarding Tax Exemption of Interest on Bonds. (a) The City 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 City 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 the proceeds or the projects financed therewith are so used, such amounts, whether or not received by the City, 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 46 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 refunding bonds, for a period of 30 days or less until such proceeds are needed for the purpose for which the Bonds or refunding bonds are issued, (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 do not otherwise contravene the requirements of section 148 of the Code (relating to arbitrage); (8) to refrain from using the proceeds of the Bonds or proceeds of any prior bonds to pay debt service on another issue more than 90 days after the date of issue of the Bonds in contravention of the requirements of section 149(d) of the Code (relating to advance refundings); and 47 (9) to pay to the United States of America at least once during each five-year period (beginning on the Delivery Date) 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 have 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)(9), the Rebate Fund is established by the City 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 City 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 City 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 City 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 City 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 City hereby authorizes and directs the City Manager and Director of Finance to execute any documents, certificates or reports required by the Code and to make such elections, on behalf of the City, that may be permitted by the Code as are consistent with the purpose for the issuance of the Bonds. (d) The City covenants to account for the expenditure of sale proceeds and investment earnings to be used for Improvement Area #1 Projects on its books and records in accordance with the requirements of the Code. The City 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 Area #1 Projects are completed; but in no event later than three years after the date on which the original expenditure is paid. The foregoing notwithstanding, the City 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 Date, or (2) the date the Bonds are retired. The City 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 City 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. 48 (e) The City 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 City of cash or other compensation, unless the City 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 City 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. ARTICLE VIII LIABILITY OF CITY Section 8.1. Liability of City. (a) Neither the full faith and credit nor the general taxing power of the City is pledged to the payment of the Bonds, and, except for the Trust Estate, no City taxes, fee or revenues from any source are pledged to the payment of, or available to pay any portion of, the Bonds or any other obligations relating to the District. The City shall never be liable for any obligations relating to the Bonds or other obligations relating to the District, other than as specifically provided for in this Indenture. (b) The City shall not incur any responsibility in respect of the Bonds or this Indenture other than in connection with the duties or obligations explicitly herein or in the Bonds assigned to or imposed upon it. The City shall not be liable in connection with the performance of its duties hereunder, except for its own willful default or act of bad faith. The City shall not be bound to ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, conditions covenants or agreements of the Trustee herein or of any of the documents executed by the Trustee in connection with the Bonds, or as to the existence of a default or event of default thereunder. (c) In the absence of bad faith, the City may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the City and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture. The City shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith unless it shall be proved that it was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts. (d) No provision of this Indenture, the Bonds, the Assessment Ordinance, or any agreement, document, instrument, or certificate executed, delivered or approved in connection with the issuance, sale, delivery, or administration of the Bonds (collectively, the "Bond Documents"), shall require the City to expend or risk its own general funds or other funds or otherwise incur any financial liability (other than with respect to the Trust Estate and the Annual Collection Costs) in the performance of any of its obligations hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if in the judgment of the City there are reasonable grounds for believing that the repayment of such funds or liability is not reasonably assured to it. 49 (e) Neither the Owners nor any other Person shall have any claim against the City or any of its officers, officials, agents, or employees for damages suffered as a result of the City’s failure to perform in any respect any covenant, undertaking, or obligation under any Bond Documents or as a result of the incorrectness of any representation in, or omission from, any of the Bond Documents, except to the extent that any such claim relates to an obligation, undertaking, representation, or covenant of the City, in accordance with the Bond Documents and the PID Act. Any such claim shall be payable only from the Trust Estate or the amounts collected to pay Annual Collection Costs on deposit in the Administrative Fund. Nothing contained in any of the Bond Documents shall be construed to preclude any action or proceeding in any court or before any governmental body, agency, or instrumentality against the City or 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. (f) The City may rely on and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting 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 City may consult with counsel with regard to legal questions, and the opinion of such counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken or suffered by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance therewith. Whenever in the administration of its duties under this Indenture the City 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 specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of willful misconduct on the part of the City, be deemed to be conclusively proved and established by a certificate of the Trustee, an Independent Financial Consultant, an independent inspector or City Manager or other person designated by the City Council to so act on behalf of the City, and such certificate shall be full warrant to the City for any action taken or suffered under the provisions of this Indenture upon the faith thereof, but in its discretion the City 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 City may employ such persons or entities as it deems necessary or advisable. The City shall not be liable for any of the acts or omissions of such persons or entities employed by it in good faith hereunder, and shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in doing so, upon the opinions, calculations, determinations, and directions of such persons or entities. ARTICLE IX THE TRUSTEE Section 9.1. Acceptance of Trust; Trustee as Registrar and Paying Agent. (a) The Trustee accepts and agrees to execute the respective trusts imposed upon it by this Indenture, but only upon the express terms and conditions and subject to the provisions of this Indenture to all of which the parties hereto and the respective Owners of the Bonds agree. No implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee. 50 (b) The Trustee is hereby designated and agrees to act as Paying Agent/Registrar for and with respect to the Bonds. Section 9.2. Trustee Entitled to Indemnity. The Trustee shall be under no obligation to institute any suit, or to undertake any proceeding under this Indenture, or to enter any appearance or in any way defend in any suit in which it may be made defendant, or to take any steps in the execution of the trusts hereby created or in the enforcement of any rights and powers hereunder, until it shall be indemnified, to the extent permitted by law, to its satisfaction against any and all costs and expenses, outlays, and counsel fees and other reasonable disbursements, and against all liability except as a consequence of its own negligence or willful misconduct; provided, however, that in no event shall the Trustee request or require indemnification as a condition to making any deposits, payments or transfers (provided such payment or transfer is prior to an Event of Default) when required hereunder, or to deliver any notice when required hereunder. To the extent permitted by law and during the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Trustee shall be entitled to indemnification as a condition to making any deposits, payments or transfers when required hereunder, or to delivering any notice when required hereunder. Nevertheless, the Trustee may begin suit, or appear in and defend suit, or exercise any such rights and powers as Trustee, and in such case the Trustee may make transfers from the Pledged Revenue Fund and Administrative Fund, and to the extent money in the Administrative Fund is insufficient, from the Pledged Revenue Fund, to pay all fees, costs and expenses, outlays, and counsel fees and other reasonable disbursements properly incurred in connection therewith and shall, to the extent permitted by law, be entitled to a preference therefor over any Bonds Outstanding hereunder. Section 9.3. Responsibilities of the Trustee. (a) The recitals contained in this Indenture and in the Bonds shall be taken as the statements of the City and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for and undertakes no duty to verify the correctness of the same. The Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture or the Bonds or with respect to the security afforded by this Indenture, and the Trustee shall incur no liability with respect thereto. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Indenture, the Trustee shall have no responsibility or duty with respect to: (i) the issuance of Bonds for value; (ii) the application of the proceeds thereof, except to the extent that such proceeds are received by it in its capacity as Trustee; (iii) the application of any moneys paid to the City or others in accordance with this Indenture, except as to the application of any moneys paid to it in its capacity as Trustee; (iv) any calculation of arbitrage or rebate under the Code; (v) any loss suffered in connection with any investment of funds in accordance with this Indenture; or (vi) to undertake any other action unless specifically authorized pursuant to a written direction by the City or pursuant to this Indenture. (b) The duties and obligations of the Trustee shall be determined by the express provisions of this Indenture, and the Trustee shall not be liable except for the performance of such duties and obligations as are specifically set forth in this Indenture. The Trustee will, prior to any Event of Default and after curing of any Event of Default, perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth herein. The Trustee will, during the existence of an Event of Default, exercise such rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture and use the same degree 51 of care and skill in its exercise as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his/her own affairs. (c) The Trustee shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted by it in the performance of its duties under this Indenture, except for its own negligence or willful misconduct. In no event shall the Trustee be liable for incidental, indirect, special or consequential damages in connection with or arising from this Indenture for the existence, furnishing or use of the Improvement Area #1 Projects. The Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the direction of the Owners of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Bonds then Outstanding relating to the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee, under this Indenture. (d) The Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by any one of its officers, unless it shall be established that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts. (e) The Trustee’s immunities and protections from liability and its right to indemnification in connection with the performance of its duties under this Indenture shall extend to the Trustee’s officers, directors, agents, attorneys and employees. Such immunities and protections and rights to indemnification, together with the Trustee’s right to compensation, shall survive the Trustee’s resignation or removal, the discharge of this Indenture. (f) The Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or through agents, attorneys, or receivers, and shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any agent, attorney, or receiver appointed or chosen by it with due care, and the Trustee shall be entitled to rely and act upon the opinion or advice of counsel, who may be counsel to the City, concerning all matters of trust hereof and the duties hereunder, and may in all cases pay such reasonable compensation to all such agents, attorneys, and receivers as may reasonably be employed in connection with the trusts hereof. The Trustee shall not be responsible for any loss or damage resulting from any action or nonaction by it taken or omitted to be taken in good faith in reliance upon such opinion or advice of counsel. (g) The Trustee shall not be responsible for any recital herein (except with respect to the authentication certificate of the Trustee endorsed on the Bonds) or for the recording, filing, or refiling of this Indenture in connection therewith, or for the validity of the execution by the City of this Indenture or of any Supplemental Indentures or instruments of further assurance, or for the sufficiency or security of the Bonds. The Trustee shall not be responsible or liable for any loss suffered in connection with any investment of funds made by it in accordance with this Indenture. (h) The Trustee makes no representations as to the value or condition of the Trust Estate or any part thereof, or as to the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture or of the Bonds. The Trustee shall not be accountable for the use or application of any Bonds or the proceeds thereof or of any money paid to or upon the order of the City under any provision of this Indenture. 52 Section 9.4. Property Held in Trust. All moneys and securities held by the Trustee at any time pursuant to the terms of this Indenture shall be held by the Trustee in trust for the purposes and under the terms and conditions of this Indenture. Section 9.5. Trustee Protected in Relying on Certain Documents. (a) The Trustee may conclusively rely upon any order, notice, request, consent, waiver, certificate, statement, affidavit, requisition, bond, or other document provided to the Trustee in accordance with the terms of this Indenture that it shall in good faith reasonably believe to be genuine and to have been adopted or signed by the proper board or Person or to have been prepared and furnished pursuant to any of the provisions of this Indenture, or upon the written opinion of any counsel, architect, engineer, insurance consultant, management consultant, or accountant that the Trustee shall in good faith reasonably believe to be qualified in relation to the subject matter or is selected by the City in accordance with this Indenture, and the Trustee shall be under no duty to make any investigation or inquiry into, and shall not be deemed to have knowledge of, any statements contained or matters referred to in any such instrument. The Trustee may consult with counsel selected by the Trustee with due care that is nationally recognized in the field of municipal bond law, who may or may not be Bond Counsel, and any advice from such counsel with respect to compliance with the provisions of this Indenture shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by it hereunder, reasonably and in good faith, in accordance with such advice. (b) Whenever the Trustee shall deem it necessary or desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking or suffering any action under this Indenture, such matter may be deemed to be conclusively proved and established by a City Certificate, unless other evidence in respect thereof be hereby specifically prescribed. Such City Certificate shall be full warrant for any action taken or suffered in good faith under the provisions hereof, but the Trustee may in lieu thereof accept other evidence of such fact or matter or may require such further or additional evidence as it may deem reasonable. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, any request, order, notice, or other direction required or permitted to be furnished pursuant to any provision hereof by the City to the Trustee shall be sufficiently executed if executed in the name of the City by the City Representative. The Trustee shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon the foregoing as sufficient evidence of the facts set forth herein. The execution of any City Certificate shall constitute, unto the Trustee, an irrevocable determination that all conditions precedent thereto have occurred. (c) The Trustee shall not be under any obligation to see to the recording or filing of this Indenture, or otherwise to the giving to any Person of notice of the provisions hereof except as expressly required in Section 9.13. Section 9.6. Compensation. Unless otherwise provided by contract with the Trustee, the Trustee, at the written direction of the City, shall transfer from the Administrative Fund, the previously determined and 53 agreed upon, reasonable compensation for all services rendered by it hereunder, including its services as Paying Agent/Registrar and extraordinary services rendered, together with all its reasonable expenses, charges, and other disbursements and those of its counsel, agents and employees, incurred in and about the administration and execution of the trusts hereby created and the exercise of its powers and the performance of its duties hereunder, all pursuant to a City Certificate and subject to any limit on the amount of such compensation or recovery of expenses or other charges as shall be prescribed by such City Certificate, and the Trustee shall have a lien therefor on any and all funds at any time held by it hereunder prior to any Bonds Outstanding. None of the provisions contained in this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur financial liability in the performance of any of its duties or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if the Trustee has reasonable grounds for believing that the repayment of such funds or liability is not reasonably assured to it. If the City shall fail to make any payment required by this Section, the Trustee shall make such payment from lawfully available funds in the Administrative Fund, and to the extent moneys in the Administrative Fund are insufficient then from any moneys in its possession under the provision of this Indenture and shall be entitled to a preference therefor over any Bonds Outstanding hereunder. The right of the Trustee to fees, expenses, and indemnification, to the extent permitted by law, shall survive the release, discharge, and satisfaction of the Indenture. Section 9.7. Permitted Acts. The Trustee and its directors, officers, employees, or agents may become the owner of or may in good faith buy, sell, own, hold and deal in Bonds and may join in any action that any Owner of Bonds may be entitled to take as fully and with the same rights as if it were not the Trustee. The Trustee may act as depository, and permit any of its officers or directors to act as a member of, or in any other capacity with respect to, the City or any committee formed to protect the rights of holders of Bonds or to effect or aid in any reorganization growing out of the enforcement of the Bonds or this Indenture, whether or not such committee shall represent the holders of a majority of the Bonds. The permissive right of the Trustee to do things enumerated in this Indenture shall not be construed as a duty, and the Trustee shall not be liable for any permissive actions taken except as a consequence of its own negligence or misconduct. Section 9.8. Resignation of Trustee. The Trustee may at any time resign and be discharged of its duties and obligations hereunder by giving not fewer than 60 days’ written notice, specifying the date when such resignation shall take effect, to the City and each Owner of any Outstanding Bond. Such resignation shall take effect upon the appointment of a successor as provided in Section 9.10 and the acceptance of such appointment by such successor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, after 60 days following receipt of the notice, the City has not appointed a successor Trustee, the Trustee may apply to a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint a successor Trustee, at no expense to the City, and such resignation shall take effect upon the court’s appointment of a successor Trustee. Section 9.9. Removal of Trustee. The Trustee may be removed at any time by (i) the Owners of at least a majority in aggregate Outstanding principal amount of the Bonds by an instrument or concurrent instruments in writing signed and acknowledged by such Owners or by their attorneys-in-fact, duly 54 authorized and delivered to the City, or (ii) so long as the City is not in default under this Indenture, the City. Copies of each such instrument shall be delivered by the City to the Trustee and any successor thereof. The Trustee may also be removed at any time for any breach of trust or for acting or proceeding in violation of, or for failing to act or proceed in accordance with, any provision of this Indenture with respect to the duties and obligations of the Trustee by any court of competent jurisdiction upon the application of the City or the Owners of not less than 10% in aggregate Outstanding principal amount of the Bonds. Section 9.10. Successor Trustee. (a) If the Trustee shall resign, be removed, be dissolved, or become incapable of acting, or shall be adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent, or if a receiver, liquidator, or conservator of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed, or if any public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs, the position of the Trustee hereunder shall thereupon become vacant. (b) If the position of Trustee shall become vacant for any of the foregoing reasons or for any other reason, a successor Trustee may be appointed within one year after any such vacancy shall have occurred by the Owners of at least 50% of the aggregate Outstanding principal amount of the Bonds by an instrument or concurrent instruments in writing signed and acknowledged by such Owners or their attorneys-in-fact, duly authorized and delivered to such successor Trustee, with notification thereof being given to the predecessor Trustee and the City. (c) Until such successor Trustee shall have been appointed by the Owners of the Bonds, the City shall forthwith (and in no event in excess of 30 days after such vacancy occurs) appoint a Trustee to act hereunder. Copies of any instrument of the City providing for any such appointment shall be delivered by the City to the Trustee so appointed. The City shall mail notice of any such appointment to each Owner of any Outstanding Bonds within 30 days after such appointment. Any appointment of a successor Trustee made by the City immediately and without further act shall be superseded and revoked by an appointment subsequently made by the Owners. (c) If in a proper case no appointment of a successor Trustee shall be made within 45 days after the giving by any Trustee of any notice of resignation in accordance with Section 9.8 or after the occurrence of any other event requiring or authorizing such appointment, the Trustee or any Owner of Bonds may apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of such a successor, and the court may thereupon, after such notice, if any, as the court may deem proper, appoint such successor and the City shall be responsible for the costs of such appointment process. (e) Any successor Trustee appointed under the provisions of this Section shall be a commercial bank or trust company or national banking association (i) having a capital and surplus and undivided profits aggregating at least $50,000,000, if there be such a commercial bank or trust company or national banking association willing and able to accept the appointment on reasonable and customary terms, and (ii) authorized by law to perform all the duties of the Trustee required by this Indenture. 55 (f) Each successor Trustee shall mail, in accordance with the provisions of the Bonds, notice of its appointment as Trustee, any rating agency which, at the time of such appointment, is providing a rating on the Bonds and each of the Owners of the Bonds. Section 9.11. Transfer of Rights and Property to Successor Trustee. Any successor Trustee appointed under the provisions of Section 9.10 shall execute, acknowledge, and deliver to its predecessor and the City an instrument in writing accepting 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 City 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, upon the receipt of payment of its outstanding charges, shall pay over, assign, and deliver to such successor any moneys or other properties subject to the trusts and conditions herein set forth. Should any deed, conveyance, or instrument in writing from the City be required by such successor for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to it any such moneys, estates, properties, rights, powers, duties, or obligations, any and all such deeds, conveyances, and instruments in writing, on request and so far as may be authorized by law, shall be executed, acknowledged, and delivered by the City. Section 9.12. Merger, Conversion or Consolidation of Trustee. Any corporation or association into which the Trustee may be merged or with which it may be consolidated or any corporation or association resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which it shall be a party or any corporation or association to which the Trustee may sell or transfer all or substantially all of its corporate trust business shall be the successor to such Trustee hereunder, without any further act, deed or conveyance, provided that such corporation or association shall be a commercial bank or trust company or national banking association qualified to be a successor to such Trustee under the provisions of Section 9.10, or a trust company that is a wholly-owned subsidiary of any of the foregoing. Section 9.13. Trustee To File Continuation Statements. Chapter 1208, Texas Government Code, applies to the issuance of the Bonds and the pledge of the Trust Estate provided herein, and such pledge is, under current law, valid, effective and perfected. If necessary, the Trustee shall file or cause to be filed, at the City’s expense, such continuation statements as may be delivered to the Trustee and which may be required by the Texas Uniform Commercial Code, as from time to time in effect (the "UCC"), in order to continue perfection of the security interest of the Trustee in such items of tangible or intangible personal property and any fixtures as may have been granted to the Trustee pursuant to this Indenture in the time, place and manner required by the UCC; provided unless the Trustee is otherwise notified by the City, the Trustee may conclusively rely upon the initial filing statements delivered to it in filing any continuation statements hereunder. The Trustee is not responsible for the initial filing of any financing statements. The City shall timely delivery a copy of such filed financing statement, if any, to the Trustee. 56 Section 9.14. Accounts, Periodic Reports and Certificates. The Trustee shall keep or cause to be kept proper books of record and account (separate from all other records and accounts) in which complete and correct entries shall be made of its transactions relating to the Funds and Accounts established by this Indenture and which shall at all times be subject to inspection by the City, and the Owner or Owners of not less than 10% in principal amount of the Bonds then Outstanding or their representatives duly authorized in writing. Section 9.15. Construction of Indenture. The Trustee may construe any of the provisions of this Indenture insofar as the same may appear to be ambiguous or inconsistent with any other provision hereof, and any construction of any such provisions hereof by the Trustee in good faith shall be binding upon the Owners of the Bonds. Section 9.16. Offering Documentation. The Trustee shall have no responsibility with respect to any information, statement, or recital in any official statement, offering memorandum, or any other disclosure material prepared or distributed with respect to the Bonds and, except as otherwise provided in the Continuing Disclosure Agreement of the Issuer, shall have no responsibility for compliance with any State or federal securities laws in connection with the Bonds. ARTICLE X MODIFICATION OR AMENDMENT OF THIS INDENTURE Section 10.1. Amendments Permitted. (a) This Indenture and the rights and obligations of the City and of the Owners of the Bonds may be modified or amended at any time by a Supplemental Indenture, except as provided below, pursuant to the affirmative vote at a meeting of Owners of the Bonds, or with the written consent without a meeting, of the Owners of the Bonds of at least a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Bonds then Outstanding and City approval of such modification or amendment.

(a) The Trustee represents that, neither the Trustee, nor any parent company, wholly- or majority-owned subsidiaries or affiliates of the same, if any, are companies identified on a list prepared and maintained by the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts under Section 2252.153 or Section 2270.0201, Texas Government Code, and posted on the following page of such officer's internet website: https://comptroller.texas.gov/purchasing/publications/divestment.php 70 The foregoing representation is made solely to comply with Section 2252.152, Texas Government Code, and to the extent such Section does not contravene applicable Federal law and excludes the Trustee and each parent company, wholly- or majority-owned subsidiaries, and other affiliates of the same, if any, that the United States government has affirmatively declared to be excluded from its federal sanctions regime relating to Sudan or Iran or any federal sanctions regime relating to a foreign terrorist organization. The Trustee understands "affiliate" to mean any entity that controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with the Trustee and exists to make a profit. (b) The Trustee hereby verify that the Trustee and any parent company, wholly- or majority-owned subsidiaries, and other affiliates, if any, do not boycott Israel and, to the extent this Indenture is a contract for goods or services, will not boycott Israel during the term of this Contract. The foregoing verification is made solely to comply with Section 2271.002, Texas Government Code, and to the extent such Section does not contravene applicable State or Federal law. As used in the foregoing verification, "boycott Israel" means refusing to deal with, terminating business activities with, or otherwise taking any action that is intended to penalize, inflict economic harm on, or limit commercial relations specifically with Israel, or with a person or entity doing business in Israel or in an Israeli-controlled territory, but does not include an action made for ordinary business purposes. (c) The Trustee hereby verifies that it and any parent company, wholly- or majority- owned subsidiaries, and other affiliates, if any, do not boycott energy companies and, to the extent this Indenture is a contract for goods or services, will not boycott energy companies during the term of this Indenture. The foregoing verification is made solely to enable the City to comply with Section 2274.002, Texas Government Code, as added by Senate Bill 13 in the Regular Session of the 87th Legislature of Texas, and to the extent such Section does not contravene applicable Federal law. As used in the foregoing verification, “boycott energy company” means (without an ordinary business purpose) refusing to deal with, terminating business activities with, or otherwise taking any action that is intended to penalize, inflict economic harm on, or limit commercial relations with a company because the company either (i) engages in the exploration, production, utilization, transportation, sale, or manufacturing of fossil fuel-based energy and does not commit or pledge to meet environmental standards beyond applicable federal and state law or (ii) does business with such a company. (d) The Trustee hereby verifies that it and any parent company, wholly- or majority- owned subsidiaries, and other affiliates, if any, do not discriminate against a firearm entity or firearm trade association and, to the extent this Indenture is a contract for goods or services, will not discriminate against a firearm entity or firearm trade association during the term of this Indenture. The foregoing verification is made solely to enable the City to comply with Section 2274.002, Texas Government Code, and to the extent such Section does not contravene applicable Federal law. As used in the foregoing verification, (a) ‘discriminate against a firearm entity or firearm trade association’ means to refuse to engage in the trade of any goods or services, or to refrain from continuing or terminate an existing business relationship, with the firearm entity or firearm trade association based solely on its status as a firearm entity or firearm trade association, but does not include any such action taken (i) to comply with federal, state, or local law, policy, or regulations or a directive by a regulatory agency or (ii) for a traditional business reason that is specific to the firearm entity or firearm trade association and not based solely on its status as a firearm entity or firearm trade association, (b) ‘firearm entity’ means a 71 manufacturer, distributor, wholesaler, supplier, or retailer of firearms, firearm accessories (i.e., devices specifically designed or adapted to enable an individual to wear, carry, store, or mount a firearm on the individual or on a conveyance and items used in conjunction with or mounted on a firearm that are not essential to the basic function of the firearm, including detachable firearm magazines), or ammunition (i.e., a loaded cartridge case, primer, bullet, or propellant powder with or without a projectile) or a sport shooting range (as defined by Section 250.001, Texas Local Government Code), and (c) ‘firearm trade association’ means a person, corporation, unincorporated association, federation, business league, or business organization that (i) is not organized or operated for profit (and none of the net earnings of which inures to the benefit of any private shareholder or individual), (ii) has two or more firearm entities as members, and (iii) is exempt from federal income taxation under Section 501(a), Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as an organization described by Section 501(c) of that code. As used in subsections (a) through (d) above, the Trustee understands “affiliate” to mean an entity that controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with the Trustee within the meaning of SEC Rule 133(f), 17 C.F.R. § 230.133(f), and exists to make a profit. (e) The Trustee represents that it has, or will have prior to the date of delivery of the Bonds, on file with the Texas Attorney General a standing letter addressing the representations and verifications in subsections (a) through (d) above in a form acceptable to the Texas Attorney General. In addition, if the Trustee has received notice from the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts that the Trustee or its affiliate may appear on the State of Texas’ list of financial companies that boycott energy companies, the Trustee agrees to provide to the City or Bond Counsel, two business days prior to the delivery date for the Bonds, written verification to the effect that the applicable standing letter remains in effect and may be relied upon by the City and the Texas Attorney General. The written verification will also confirm that the Trustee (or its affiliate which received the letter from the Comptroller) intends to timely respond to the Comptroller’s request. Such written verification may be in the form of an e-mail.

Establishment of Issue Price. (a) Definitions. For purposes of this Section 4, the following definitions apply: (i) “Public” means any person (including an individual, trust, estate, partnership, association, company, or corporation) other than a Tax Law Underwriter or a Related Party to a Tax Law Underwriter. (ii) “Related Party” means any two or more persons who are subject, directly or indirectly, to (A) more than 50% common ownership of the voting power or the total value of their stock, if both entities are corporations (including direct ownership by one corporation of another), (B) more than 50% common ownership of their capital interests or profits interests, if both entities are partnerships (including direct ownership by one partnership of another), or (C) more than 50% common ownership of the value of the outstanding stock of the corporation or the capital interests or profits interests of the partnership, as applicable, if one entity is a corporation and the other entity is a partnership (including direct ownership of the applicable stock or interests by one entity of the other). (iii) “Sale Date” means the date of execution of this Purchase Agreement by all parties. (iv) “Tax Law Underwriter” means (A) any person that agrees pursuant to a written contract with the City to participate in the initial sale of the Bonds to the Public and (B) any person that agrees pursuant to a written contract directly or indirectly with a person described in clause (A) to participate in the initial sale of the Bonds to the Public (including a member of a selling group or a party to a third-party distribution agreement participating in the initial sale of the Bonds to the Public). 4 4154-9297-3897.1 (b) Issue Price Certificate. The Underwriter agrees to assist the City in establishing the issue price of the Bonds and to execute and deliver to the City at Closing an “issue price” or similar certificate, together with the supporting pricing wires or equivalent communications, substantially in the form attached hereto as Appendix B, with such modifications as may be appropriate or necessary, in the reasonable judgment of the Underwriter, the City and Bond Counsel, to accurately reflect, as applicable, the sales price or prices or the initial offering price or prices to the Public of the Bonds (the “Issue Price Certificate”). All actions to be taken by the City under this Section to establish the issue price of the Bonds may be taken on behalf of the City by the Financial Advisor (defined in subsection 6(r) hereof) and any notice or report to be provided to the City may be provided to the Financial Advisor or Bond Counsel. (c) Public Offering. The Underwriter confirms that, on or before the Sale Date, the Underwriter offered the Bonds to the Public at the offering price or prices (each, an “Initial Offering Price”), or at the corresponding yield or yields, set forth in Schedule I attached hereto. (d) 10% Test. Except as otherwise set forth in the Issue Price Certificate, the City will determine the issue price of the Bonds based on the first price at which 10% of each maturity of the Bonds is sold to the Public (the “10% Test”). The Issue Price Certificate will set forth the maturities, if any, of the Bonds for which the issue price will be the applicable Initial Offering Price because the 10% Test was satisfied as of the Sale Date. For purposes of this Section, if Bonds mature on the same date but have different interest rates, each separate CUSIP number within that maturity will be treated as a separate maturity of the Bonds. (e) Hold-The-Offering-Price Rule. The Issue Price Certificate will set forth the maturities, if any, of the Bonds for which the 10% Test was not satisfied as of the Sale Date and for which the City and the Underwriter agree that the restrictions in the next sentence will apply (each such maturity of the Bonds being referred to as a “Held Maturity”), which will allow the City, if it determines to do so on or before the Closing Date, to treat the Initial Offering Price to the Public of each such Held Maturity as the issue price of that Held Maturity (the “Hold-the-Offering-Price Rule”). For any maturity identified as a Held Maturity, the Underwriter will neither offer nor sell unsold Bonds of such Held Maturity to any person at a price that is higher than the applicable Initial Offering Price of such Held Maturity during the period starting on the Sale Date and ending on the earlier of the following: (i) the close of the fifth business day after the Sale Date; or (ii) the date on which the Tax Law Underwriters have sold at least 10% of such Held Maturity to the Public at a price that is no higher than the Initial Offering Price of such Held Maturity. The Underwriter will advise the City promptly after the close of the fifth business day after the Sale Date whether Tax Law Underwriters have sold 10% of each such Held 5 4154-9297-3897.1 Maturity to the Public at a price that is no higher than the applicable Initial Offering Price of such Held Maturity. On or after the sixth business day after the Sale Date, if requested by the City or Bond Counsel, the Underwriter also will promptly confirm that the Tax Law Underwriters have complied with the Hold-the-Offering-Price Rule. If at any time the Underwriter becomes aware of any noncompliance by a Tax Law Underwriter with respect to the Hold-the-Offering Price Rule, the Underwriter will promptly report such noncompliance to the City. The City acknowledges that, in making the representations set forth in this Section, the Underwriter will rely on (A) in the event a selling group has been created in connection with the initial sale of the Bonds to the Public, the agreement of each dealer who is a member of the selling group to comply with the requirements for establishing the issue price of the Bonds, including its agreement to comply with the Hold-the-Offering-Price Rule, if applicable to the Bonds, as set forth in a selling group agreement and the related pricing wires, and (B) in the event that the Underwriter is a party to a third-party distribution agreement that was employed in connection with the initial sale of the Bonds of the Public, the agreement of each broker-dealer that is a party to such agreement to comply requirements for establishing the issue price of the Bonds, including its agreement to comply with the Hold-the-Offering-Price Rule, if applicable to the Bonds, as set forth in the third-party distribution agreement and the related pricing wires. The City further acknowledges that each Tax Law Underwriter will be solely liable for its failure to comply with its agreement regarding the Hold-the-Offering Price Rule and that no Tax Law Underwriter will be liable for the failure of any other Tax Law Underwriter to comply with its corresponding agreement requirements for establishing the issue price of the Bonds, including its agreement to comply with the Hold-the-Offering-Price Rule, if applicable to the Bonds. (f) Matters Relating to Certain Agreements. The Underwriter confirms that: (i) any selling group agreement and each third-party distribution agreement to which the Underwriter is a party relating to the initial sale of the Bonds to the Public, together with related pricing wires, contains or will contain language obligating the Underwriter, each dealer who is a member of any selling group, and each broker-dealer that is a party to any such third-party distribution agreement, as applicable, to: (A) comply with the Hold-the-Offering Price Rule, if applicable, for so long as directed by the Underwriter and as set forth in the related pricing wires; (B) promptly notify the Underwriter of any sales of Bonds that, to its knowledge, are made to a purchaser who is a Related Party to a Tax Law Underwriter participating in the initial sale of the Bonds to the Public; and (C) acknowledge that, unless otherwise advised by the dealer or broker-dealer, the Underwriter will assume that each order submitted by the dealer or broker-dealer is a sale to the Public; and 6 4154-9297-3897.1 (ii) any selling group agreement relating to the initial sale of the Bonds to the Public, together with related pricing wires, contains or will contain language obligating each dealer that is a party to any third-party distribution agreement to be employed in connection with the initial sale of the Bonds to the public to require each broker-dealer that is a party to such third-party distribution agreement to comply with the Hold-the-Offering Price Rule, if applicable, in each case if and for so long as directed by the Underwriter or the dealer and as set forth in the related pricing wires. (g) Sale to Related Party not a Sale to the Public. The Underwriter acknowledges that sales of any Bonds to any person that is a Related Party to a Tax Law Underwriter do not constitute sales to the Public for purposes of this Section. 5. Limited Offering Memorandum. a. Delivery of Limited Offering Memorandum. The City previously has delivered, or caused to be delivered, to the Underwriter the Preliminary Limited Offering Memorandum for the Bonds dated August 29, 2023, (the “Preliminary Limited Offering Memorandum”), in a “designated electronic format,” as defined in the MSRB Rule G-32 (“Rule G-32”).

In addition, for purposes of this opinion, we have assumed the due authorization, execution, and delivery of the City Documents by all parties other than the City. Based upon and subject to the foregoing and the additional qualifications and assumptions set forth herein, we are of the opinion that: 1. The City is a home rule municipal corporation of the State of Texas and has all necessary power and authority to enter into and perform its obligations under the Authorizing Documents and the City Documents. The City has taken or obtained all actions, approvals, consents, and authorizations required of it by applicable laws in connection with the execution of the Authorizing Documents and the City Documents and the performance of its obligations thereunder. 2. To the best of our knowledge, 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 threatened against the City: (a) affecting the existence of the City or the titles of its officers to their respective offices; (b) in any way questioning the formation or existence of The Woods at Lindsey Place Public Improvement District (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 Assessments in the District pursuant to the provisions of the Assessment Ordinance and the Service and Assessment Plan referenced therein; (d) contesting or affecting the validity or enforceability or the City’s performance of the City 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 City. C-3 4154-9297-3897.1 3. The Authorizing Documents were duly enacted by the City and remain in full force and effect on the date hereof. 4. The City Documents have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the City and remain legal, valid, and binding obligations of the City enforceable against the City in accordance with their terms. However, the enforceability of the obligations of the City under such City 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 action by future councils and relating to governmental immunity applicable to governmental entities. 5. The performance by the City of the obligations under the Authorizing Documents and the City 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 City as a condition precedent to the performance by the City of its obligations under the Authorizing Documents and the City Documents. 7. The City has duly authorized and delivered the Preliminary Limited Offering Memorandum. 8. Based upon our limited participation in the preparation of the Preliminary Limited Offering Memorandum and the Limited Offering Memorandum (collectively, the “Limited Offering Memorandum”), the statements and information contained in the Limited Offering Memorandum with respect to the City under the captions and subcaptions “ASSESSMENT PROCEDURES – Assessment Methodology” and “– Assessment Amounts,” “THE CITY,” “THE DISTRICT,” “LEGAL MATTERS – Litigation – The City” and “APPENDIX A” are fair and accurate summaries of the law and the documents and facts summarized therein. 9.

The execution and delivery by the Developer of the Material Documents to which it is a party and the performance of the obligations of the Developer thereunder do not (i) violate any of the terms, conditions, or provisions of the Developer Organizational Documents; (ii) violate any applicable law; or (iii) conflict with or result in the breach of D-3 4154-9297-3897.1 any court decree or order of any governmental body identified in the Developer Certificate or otherwise actually known to the lawyers who have provided substantive attention to the representation reflected in this opinion 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 respective obligations under the Material Documents to which it is a party. 5.

SECTION 6. Reporting of Significant Events. (a) Pursuant to the provisions of this Section 6, each of the following is a Listed Event with respect to the Bonds: 1. Principal and interest payment delinquencies. 2. Non-payment related defaults, if material. 3. Unscheduled draws on debt service reserves reflecting financial difficulties. 7 4131-0566-6633.1 4. Unscheduled draws on credit enhancements reflecting financial difficulties. 5. Substitution of credit or liquidity providers, or their failure to perform. 6. Adverse tax opinions, the issuance by the IRS of proposed or final determinations of taxability, Notices of Proposed Issue (IRS Form 5701-TEB) or other material notices or determinations with respect to the tax status of the Bonds, or other material events affecting the tax status of the Bonds. 7. Modifications to rights of Owners, if material. 8. Bond calls, if material, and tender offers. 9. Defeasances. 10. Release, substitution, or sale of property securing repayment of the bonds, if material. 11. Rating changes. 12. Bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar event of the Issuer. 13. The consummation of a merger, consolidation, or acquisition of the Issuer, or the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Issuer, other than in the ordinary course of business, the entry into a definitive agreement to undertake such an action or the termination of a definitive agreement relating to any such actions, other than pursuant to its terms, if material. 14. Appointment of a successor or additional trustee under the Indenture or the change of name of a trustee, if material. 15. Incurrence of a Financial Obligation of the Issuer, if material, or agreement to covenants, events of default, remedies, priority rights, or other similar terms of a Financial Obligation of the Issuer, any of which affect security holders, if material. 16. Default, event of acceleration, termination event, modification of terms, or other similar events under the terms of a Financial Obligation of the Issuer, any of which reflect financial difficulties. Any sale by the Developer of real property within Improvement Area #1 in the ordinary course of the Developer’s business will not constitute a Listed Event for the purposes of paragraph (10) above. For these purposes, any event described in paragraph (12) above is considered to occur when any of the following occur: the appointment of a receiver, fiscal agent, or 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 8 4131-0566-6633.1 liquidation by a court or governmental authority having supervision or jurisdiction over substantially all of the assets or business of the Issuer. The Issuer intends the words used in paragraphs (15) and (16) above and the definition of Financial Obligation to have the same meanings as when they are used in the Rule, as evidenced by SEC Release No. 34-83885, dated August 20, 2018. For the avoidance of doubt, the incurrence of Other Obligations without the filing of a corresponding official statement with the MSRB will constitute the incurrence of a material Financial Obligation for which a notice of a Listed Event in accordance with this Section 6 must be filed with the MSRB. Upon 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. 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. In all cases, the Issuer shall have the sole responsibility for the content, design and other elements comprising substantive contents of all disclosures made under this Section 6. In addition, the Issuer shall have the sole responsibility to ensure that any notice required to be filed under this Section 6 is filed within ten (10) Business Days of the occurrence of the Listed Event. (b) The Dissemination Agent shall, promptly, and not more than five (5) Business Days of obtaining actual knowledge of the occurrence of any Listed Event with respect to the Bonds, notify the Disclosure Representative in writing 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. If the Dissemination Agent has been instructed in writing by the Disclosure Representative on behalf of the Issuer to report the occurrence of a Listed Event under this subsection (b), the Dissemination Agent shall file a notice of such occurrence with the MSRB no later than two (2) Business Days following the day on which it receives such written instructions. 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 Dissemination 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 Issuer, the Participating Underwriter, the Trustee, 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 (as to bond calls only), 10, 13, 14, or 15 of subparagraph (a) above is not material under applicable federal securities laws, the Issuer shall promptly, 9 4131-0566-6633.1 but in no case more than five (5) Business Days after the occurrence of the event, 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 (b). SECTION 7. Termination of Reporting Obligations. The obligations of the Issuer, the Administrator, 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 and the Administrator 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 Administrator and the Dissemination Agent may assume that the Issuer is an obligated person with respect to the Bonds until they receive 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 and the Administrator 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 the Bonds under Section 6(a). SECTION 8. 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 the Issuer discharges the Dissemination Agent without appointing a successor Dissemination Agent, the Issuer shall use best efforts to appoint a successor Dissemination Agent within 30 days of such discharge. If at any time there is not any other designated Dissemination Agent, the Issuer shall be the Dissemination Agent. SECTION 9. Amendment; Waiver. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Disclosure Agreement, the Issuer, the Administrator, and the Dissemination Agent may amend this Disclosure Agreement (and the Dissemination Agent shall not unreasonably withhold its consent to any amendment so requested in writing by the Issuer or the Administrator), 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, 5, or 6(a), it may only be made in connection with a change in circumstances that arises from a change in legal 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. 10 4131-0566-6633.1 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 Financial Information, 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 6(a), and (ii) the Annual Financial Information 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 10. 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, Annual Collections 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, Annual Collections 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 Issuer Report, Annual Collections Report, or notice of occurrence of a Listed Event. SECTION 11. Default. In the event of a failure of the Issuer to comply with any provision of this Disclosure Agreement, the Dissemination Agent or any Owner or beneficial owner of the Bonds may, and the Trustee (at the written request of any Participating Underwriter or the Owners of at least twenty-five percent (25%) aggregate principal amount of Outstanding Bonds and upon being indemnified to its satisfaction) shall, take such actions as may be necessary and appropriate to cause the Issuer 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 for mandamus or specific performance. A default under this Disclosure Agreement shall not be deemed a default under the Disclosure Agreement of Developer and a default under the Disclosure Agreement of Developer shall not be deemed a default under this Disclosure Agreement. SECTION 12. Duties, Immunities and Liabilities of Dissemination Agent and Administrator. (a) 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 indemnify and hold harmless the Dissemination Agent, its officers, directors, employees and agents, but only from Annual Collection Costs collected from the property owners in Improvement Area #1, 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’ 11 4131-0566-6633.1 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 information provided under this caption “INTRODUCTION” is intended to provide a brief overview of the information provided in the other captions herein and is not intended, and should not be considered, fully representative or complete as to the subjects discussed hereunder. * Preliminary, subject to change. 2 PLAN OF FINANCE Overview In October 2021, the City entered into the AnaCapri Development Agreement with AnaCapri Laguna Azure, LLC, a Wyoming limited liability company (the “Developer”), regarding the development of approximately 341 acres of real property (the “Property”) within the corporate limits of the City (the “Development Agreement”). The Development Agreement provides, in part, for the creation by the City of a public improvement district and one or more tax reinvestment zones to include portions of the Property. Pursuant to the Development Agreement, on April 12, 2022, the City created the AnaCapri Public Improvement District (the “District”) to include approximately 284.952 acres of the Property. On December 14, 2021, the City adopted an ordinance (the “TIRZ No. 4 Ordinance”), creating Reinvestment Zone Number Four, City of Anna, Texas (“TIRZ No. 4”), pursuant to Chapter 311 of the Texas Tax Code (the “TIRZ Act”), including all of the real property in the District and certain real property adjacent to the District that is the intended site for the Laguna, the multi-family residential units, and the commercial and entertainment facilities described below. Development Plan The Developer owns all of the Property and intends to develop it in four phases over a period of approximately four years as a master-planned community to include approximately 1,233 single-family residential lots of 40’ and 50’ front footage, approximately 600 multi-family residential units, a minimum of 30,000 square feet of commercial and entertainment space, including a restaurant, catering services, a bowling alley, teen arcade, kids’ indoor playground, adult game area, yoga studio and fitness center (all of such space, the “Entertainment Commercial Complex”), and a laguna with a minimum of 2.3 acres of water surface, at least two sand beaches, rentable cabanas and paddleboards, a swim-up bar, flowrider, water slide, event venue and outdoor stage (collectively, the “Laguna”), and other similar attractions (collectively, the “Development”). See the maps and concept plan for the District and the Development on pages iv-vii. The single-family residential lots will be located within the District. The multi-family units, commercial and entertainment space, and the Laguna will be located on the Property east of Ferguson Parkway between Rosamond Parkway and Improvement Area #1. The boundaries of the District, Improvement Area #1 (Phases 1A, 1B, and 1C), and Phases 2-4 are shown on page v. A conceptual plan of the Laguna is shown on page vi. The Developer began with the construction of the Laguna and certain public improvements benefitting Improvement Area #1 (the “Improvement Area #1 Improvements”). Improvement Area #1 consists of approximately 97.716 acres and 457 single-family residential lots, consisting of 168 40’ lots and 289 50’ lots. Construction of the Improvement Area #1 Improvements began in October 2021. The Improvement Area #1 Improvements in the portion of Improvement Area #1 designated as “Phase 1A,” consisting of 190 lots, are complete. The Improvement Area #1 Improvements in the portion of Improvement Area #1 designated as “Phase 1B,” consisting of 205 lots, and “Phase 1C,” consisting of 62 lots, are expected to be complete in September 2023. See “THE IMPROVEMENT AREA #1 IMPROVEMENTS.” The costs of the Improvement Area #1 Improvements are expected to total approximately $20,152,720*. As reflected in the Service and Assessment Plan, approximately $18,564,211* of such costs represent the portion of the Improvement Area #1 Improvements that benefit the Assessed Property. The remaining $1,588,509*, representing a portion of the Improvement Area #1 Improvements that benefit property outside of the District, will not be subject to assessment and will be paid by the Developer from proceeds of the Development Loan (defined herein), without reimbursement. As of June 30, 2023, the Developer had spent approximately $16,185,117.95 on costs of the Improvement Area #1 Improvements. See “THE DEVELOPMENT – Development Agreement,” “THE DEVELOPER – History and Financing of the District,” and “APPENDIX C –Service and Assessment Plan.” Costs of the Improvement Area #1 Improvements in the approximate amount of $16,449,502* will be reimbursed to the Developer from proceeds of the Bonds. The remaining costs in the approximate amount of $2,114,709* have been or will be paid by the Developer from proceeds of the Development Loan, without reimbursement. See “SOURCES AND USES OF FUNDS,” “THE IMPROVEMENT AREA #1 * Preliminary, subject to change. 3 IMPROVEMENTS,” and “THE DEVELOPER AND THE HOMEBUILDER – History and Financing of the District.” The TIRZ No. 4 Ordinance authorizes the use of ad valorem tax increment attributable to the new development within TIRZ No. 4 for project costs under the TIRZ Act, including the Improvement Area #1 Improvements (“Project Costs”), as provided for in the Reinvestment Zone Number Four, City of Anna, Texas, Final Project and Financing Plan (including amendments or supplements thereto, the “TIRZ No. 4 Project Plan”) and the Development Agreement, as described in more detail under “SECURITY FOR THE BONDS – Amount of Assessments May be Reduced by TIRZ No. 4 Annual Credit Amount.” See also “THE DEVELOPMENT – Development Plan,” “– Development Agreement,” and “BONDHOLDERS’ RISKS – TIRZ NO. 4 Annual Credit Amount and Marketing of the Development.” Following development of the Improvement Area #1 Improvements, the Developer intends to, over an approximately four-year period, undertake the development of public improvements necessary to serve Phases 2-4 of the Development. See “THE DEVELOPMENT – Development Plan.” The boundaries of the District, Improvement Area #1 (Phases 1A, 1B, and 1C), and Phases 2-4 are shown on page v. The Developer expects to request the City to issue in the future one or more series of bonds (collectively, the “Future Improvement Area Bonds”) to finance the costs of the public improvements benefitting each of Phases 2-4 of the Development. The estimated costs of the local improvements benefitting each such phase will be determined as development progresses, and the Service and Assessment Plan will be updated accordingly. Such Future Improvement Area Bonds will be secured by separate assessments levied pursuant to the PID Act on assessable property within each phase, as applicable. The Developer anticipates that Future Improvement Area Bonds will be issued over a four-year period. See “THE DEVELOPMENT – Future Improvement Area Bonds.” Lot Purchase Contract Improvement Area #1 has been subdivided into 458 lots for single-family residential development (each, a “Lot”). Pursuant to the Real Estate Purchase and Sale Agreement, effective as of August 23, 2022 (the “Lot Purchase Contract”), the Developer is under contract to sell all lots in the District, including all 458 Lots in Improvement Area #1, to Megatel AnaCapri, LLC, a Texas limited liability company (the “Homebuilder”), an affiliate of the Developer. Pursuant to the Lot Purchase Contract, within fifteen (15) days of substantial completion of the Improvement Area #1 Improvements the Homebuilder will be obligated purchase twenty (20) Lots and will be obligated to purchase an additional forty (40) Lots within each one hundred eighty (180) day period thereafter until all Lots are purchased. The Developer has received an earnest money deposit from the Homebuilder equal to $5,000. See “THE DEVELOPMENT – Lot Purchase Contract.” The Homebuilder began purchasing Lots upon substantial completion of the Phase 1A portion of Improvement Area #1. As of September 1, 2023, the Homebuilder had purchased 150 Lots. The Developer expects that the Homebuilder will continue to purchase Lots on an accelerated schedule from that required by the Lot Purchase Contract. The Bonds Proceeds of the Bonds will be used primarily to finance (i) a portion of the costs of the Improvement Area #1 Improvements, (ii) funding a reserve fund for the payment of principal of and interest on the Bonds, (iii) paying a portion of the costs incidental to the organization of the District, and (iv) paying the costs of issuance of the Bonds. To the extent that a portion of the proceeds of the Bonds is allocated for the payment of the costs of issuance of the Bonds and less than all of such amount is used to pay such costs, the excess amount may, at the option of the City, be transferred to the Improvement Area #1 Bond Improvement Account of the Project Fund or to the Principal and Interest Account of the Bond Fund to pay interest on the Bonds. See “THE IMPROVEMENT AREA #1 IMPROVEMENTS,” “APPENDIX B – Form of Indenture” and “SOURCES AND USES OF FUNDS.” Payment of the Bonds is secured by a pledge of and a lien upon the Trust Estate, consisting primarily of Pledged Revenues derived from Assessments to be levied against the assessable parcels or lots within Improvement 4 Area #1 of the District, all to the extent and upon the conditions described herein and in the Indenture. See “SECURITY FOR THE BONDS,” “ASSESSMENT PROCEDURES,” and “APPENDIX B – Form of Indenture.” The Bonds, any Refunding Bonds, and any Future Improvement Area Bonds shall never constitute an indebtedness or general obligation of the City, Collin County, the State of Texas (the “State”), or any other political subdivision of the State, within the meaning of any constitutional provision or statutory limitation whatsoever, but the Bonds are limited and special obligations of the City payable solely from the Trust Estate as provided in the Indenture. Neither the faith and credit nor the taxing power of the City, the State, or any other political subdivision of the State is pledged to the payment of the Bonds. Neither any Refunding Bonds nor any Future Improvement Area Bonds to be issued by the City are offered pursuant to this Limited Offering Memorandum. LIMITATIONS APPLICABLE TO INITIAL PURCHASERS Each initial purchaser is advised that the Bonds being offered pursuant to this Limited Offering Memorandum are being offered and sold only to “qualified institutional buyers” as defined in Rule 144A promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, and “accredited investors” as defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933.

The Investor understands that it may need to bear the risks of this investment for an indefinite time, since any sale prior to maturity may not be possible. 4. The Investor understands that the Bonds are not registered under the Securities Act of 1933 and that such registration is not legally required as of the date hereof; and further understands that the Bonds (a) are not being registered or otherwise qualified for sale under the “Blue Sky” laws and regulations of any state, (b) will not be listed in any stock or other securities exchange, and (c) will not carry a rating from any rating service. 5. The Investor acknowledges that it has either been supplied with or been given access to information, including financial statements and other financial information, and the Investor has had the opportunity to ask questions and receive answers from knowledgeable individuals concerning the City, the Improvement Area #1 Improvements, the Bonds, the security therefor, and such other information as the Investor has deemed necessary or desirable in connection with its decision to purchase the Bonds (collectively, the “Investor Information”).

The Investor acknowledges that the obligations of the City under the Indenture are special, limited obligations payable solely from amounts paid by the City to the Trustee pursuant to the terms of the Indenture and the City shall not be directly or indirectly or contingently or morally obligated to use any other moneys or assets of 5 the City for amounts due under the Indenture. The Investor understands that the Bonds are not secured by any pledge of any moneys received or to be received from taxation by the City, the State, or any political subdivision or taxing district thereof; that the Bonds will never represent or constitute a general obligation or a pledge of the full faith and credit of the City, the State, or any political subdivision thereof; that no right will exist to have taxes levied by the City, the State, or any political subdivision thereof for the payment of principal of and interest on the Bonds; and that the liability of the City and the State with respect to the Bonds is subject to further limitations as set forth in the Bonds and the Indenture. 7.

DESCRIPTION OF THE BONDS General Description The Bonds will mature on the dates and in the amounts set forth in the inside cover page of this Limited Offering Memorandum. Interest on the Bonds will accrue from their date of delivery to the Underwriter and will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. Interest on the Bonds will be payable on each March 15 and September 15, commencing March 15, 2024 (each an “Interest Payment Date”), until maturity or prior redemption. Regions Bank is the initial Trustee, Paying Agent, and Registrar for the Bonds. The Bonds will be issued in fully registered form, without coupons, in authorized denominations of $100,000 of principal and any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof (“Authorized Denominations”). Upon initial issuance, the ownership of the Bonds will be registered in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee for The Depository Trust Company, New York, New York (“DTC”), and purchases of beneficial interests in the Bonds will be made in book-entry only form. See “BOOK-ENTRY ONLY SYSTEM” and “SUITABILITY FOR INVESTMENT.” Redemption Provisions Optional Redemption. The City reserves the right and option to redeem the Bonds, in whole or in part, maturing on or after September 15, 20 , before their respective scheduled maturity dates, in whole or in part, on any date on or after September 15, 20 , such redemption date or dates to be fixed by the City, at the redemption price of par plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of redemption (the “Redemption Price”). Extraordinary Optional Redemption. The City reserves the right and option to redeem Bonds before their respective scheduled maturity dates, in whole or in part, at the Redemption Price, from amounts on deposit in the Redemption Fund as a result of Prepayments (including related transfers to the Redemption Fund from the Reserve Account of the Reserve Fund made pursuant to the Indenture) or any other transfers to the Redemption Fund under the terms of the Indenture. The City will provide the Trustee a City Certificate directing the Bonds to be redeemed pursuant to the Indenture. No redemption shall be made which results in a Bond remaining outstanding in a principal amount less than an Authorized Denomination. See “ASSESSMENT PROCEDURES – Prepayment of Assessments” for the definition and description of Prepayments and “APPENDIX B – Form of Indenture.” THE REMAINDER OF THIS PAGE IS LEFT BLANK INTENTIONALLY. 6 Mandatory Sinking Fund Redemption. The Bonds maturing on September 15 in the years 20 , 20 , and 20__ (the “Term Bonds”) are subject to mandatory sinking fund redemption prior to their respective maturities and will be redeemed by the City in part at the Redemption Price from moneys available for such purpose in the Principal and Interest Account of the Bond Fund pursuant to the Indenture, on the dates and in the respective Sinking Fund Installments as set forth in the following schedules: $ Term Bonds Maturing September 15, 20 Redemption Date Sinking Fund Installment Amount September 15, 20__$ September 15, 20__ September 15, 20__ September 15, 20__ September 15, 20__† $ Term Bonds Maturing September 15, 20 Redemption Date Sinking Fund Installment Amount September 15, 20__$ September 15, 20__ September 15, 20__ September 15, 20__ September 15, 20__ September 15, 20__ September 15, 20__ September 15, 20__ September 15, 20__ September 15, 20__ September 15, 20__ September 15, 20__ September 15, 20__ September 15, 20__† __________________________ † Stated maturity. At least thirty (30) days prior to each mandatory sinking fund redemption date, and subject to any prior reduction authorized by the Indenture, the Trustee will select by lot, or any by any other customary method that results in random selection, a principal amount of Bonds of such maturity equal to the Sinking Fund Installment amount 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 mandatory sinking fund redemption, as provided in the Indenture. The principal amount of Bonds required to be redeemed on any mandatory sinking fund redemption date shall be reduced, at the option of the City, by the principal amount of any Bonds of such maturity which, at least 30 days prior to the mandatory sinking fund redemption date shall have been acquired by the City at a price not exceeding the principal amount of such Bonds plus accrued unpaid interest to the date of purchase thereof, and delivered to the Trustee for cancellation. The Sinking Fund Installments of Term Bonds required to be redeemed on any mandatory sinking fund redemption date shall be reduced in integral multiples of $1,000 by any portion of such Bonds, which, at least 30 days prior to the mandatory sinking fund redemption date, shall have been redeemed pursuant to the optional redemption or extraordinary optional redemption provisions in the Indenture and not previously credited to a mandatory sinking fund redemption. 7 Notice of Redemption. Upon written notification by the City to the Trustee of the exercise of any redemption, 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 portion thereof to be redeemed, at the address shown in the Register. Any such notice shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given, whether or not the Owner receives such notice. Notice of redemption having been given as provided in the Indenture, the Bonds or portions thereof called for redemption shall become due and payable on the date fixed for redemption provided that funds for the payment of the Redemption Price of such Bonds to the date fixed for redemption are on deposit with the Trustee; thereafter, such Bonds or portions thereof shall cease to bear interest from and after the date fixed for redemption, whether or not such Bonds are presented and surrendered for payment on such date. 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 City 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 are not satisfied and sufficient funds are not received, the notice shall be of no force and effect, the City 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 City has the right to rescind any optional redemption or extraordinary optional redemption by written notice to the Trustee on or prior to the date fixed for redemption. Any notice of redemption shall be cancelled and annulled if for any reason funds are not available on the date fixed for redemption for the payment in full of the Bonds then called for redemption, and such cancellation shall not constitute an Event of Default under the Indenture. Upon written direction from the City, the Trustee shall mail notice of rescission of redemption in the same manner notice of redemption was originally provided. Partial Redemption. If less than all of the Bonds are to be redeemed pursuant to the Indenture, Bonds may be redeemed in minimum principal amounts of $1,000 or any integral thereof. Each Bond will be treated as representing the number of Bonds that is obtained by dividing the principal amount of such Bond by $1,000. No redemption will result in a Bond in a denomination of less than an Authorized Denomination; provided, however, if the amount of Outstanding Bonds is less than an Authorized Denomination after giving effect to such partial redemption, a Bond in the principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion, but not less than $1,000, may be issued. If less than all of the Bonds are called for optional redemption pursuant to the Indenture, the Trustee will rely on directions provided in a City Certificate in selecting the Bonds to be redeemed. If less than all of the Bonds are called for extraordinary optional redemption pursuant to the Indenture, the Bonds or portion of a Bond to be redeemed will be allocated on a pro rata basis (as nearly as practicable) among all Outstanding Bonds. Upon surrender of any Bond for redemption in part, the Trustee in accordance with the Indenture, will authenticate and deliver an exchange Bond or Bonds in an aggregate principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the Bond so surrendered, such exchange being without charge. THE REMAINDER OF THIS PAGE IS LEFT BLANK INTENTIONALLY. 8 BOOK-ENTRY ONLY SYSTEM This section describes how ownership of the Bonds is to be transferred and how the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds are to be paid to and credited by The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”), New York, New York, while the Bonds are registered in its nominee name. The information in this section concerning DTC and the Book-Entry-Only System has been provided by DTC for use in disclosure documents such as this Limited Offering Memorandum. The information in this section concerning DTC and DTC’s book-entry-only system has been obtained from sources that the City believes to be reliable, but none of the City, the City’s Financial Advisor or the Underwriter takes any responsibility for the accuracy or completeness thereof. The City cannot and does not give any assurance that (1) DTC will distribute payments of debt service on the Bonds, or redemption or other notices, to DTC participants, (2) DTC participants or others will distribute debt service payments paid to DTC or its nominee (as the registered owner of the Bonds), or redemption or other notices, to the Beneficial Owners, or that they will do so on a timely basis, or (3) DTC will serve and act in the manner described in this Limited Offering Memorandum. The current rules applicable to DTC are on file with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, and the current procedures of DTC to be followed in dealing with DTC participants are on file with DTC. DTC will act as securities depository for the Bonds. The Bonds will be issued as fully registered securities registered in the name of Cede & Co. (DTC’s partnership nominee) or such other name as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. One fully registered security certificate will be issued for each maturity of the Bonds, each in the aggregate principal amount of such maturity, and will be deposited with DTC. DTC, the world’s largest securities depository, is a limited-purpose trust company organized under the New York Banking Law, a “banking organization” within the meaning of the New York Banking Law, a member of the Federal Reserve System, a “clearing corporation” within the meaning of the New York Uniform Commercial Code, and a “clearing agency” registered pursuant to the provisions of Section 17A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. DTC holds and provides asset servicing for over 3.5 million issues of U.S. and non-U.S. equity issues, corporate and municipal debt issues, and money market instruments (from over 100 countries) that DTC’s participants (“Direct Participants”) deposit with DTC. DTC also facilitates the post-trade settlement among Direct Participants of sales and other securities transactions in deposited securities, through electronic computerized book- entry transfers and pledges between Direct Participants’ accounts. This eliminates the need for physical movement of securities certificates. Direct Participants include both U.S. and non-U.S. securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, clearing corporations, and certain other organizations. DTC is a wholly owned subsidiary of The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (“DTCC”). DTCC, is the holding company for DTC, National Securities Clearing Corporation and Fixed Income Clearing Corporation, all of which are registered clearing agencies. DTCC is owned by the users of its registered subsidiaries. Access to the DTC system is also available to others such as both U.S. and non-U.S. securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, and clearing corporations that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a Direct Participant, either directly or indirectly (“Indirect Participants”). DTC has a Standard & Poor’s rating of “AA+.” The DTC Rules applicable to its Participants are on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission. More information about DTC can be found at www.dtcc.com. Purchases of Bonds under the DTC system must be made by or through Direct Participants, which will receive a credit for the Bonds on DTC’s records. The ownership interest of each actual purchaser of each Bond (“Beneficial Owner”) is in turn to be recorded on the Direct and Indirect Participants’ records. Beneficial Owners will not receive written confirmation from DTC of their purchase. Beneficial Owners are, however, expected to receive written confirmations providing details of the transaction, as well as periodic statements of their holdings, from the Direct or Indirect Participant through which the Beneficial Owner entered into the transaction. Transfers of ownership interests in the Bonds are to be accomplished by entries made on the books of Direct and Indirect Participants acting on behalf of Beneficial Owners. Beneficial Owners will not receive certificates representing their ownership interests in Bonds, except in the event that use of the book-entry system for the Bonds is discontinued. To facilitate subsequent transfers, all Bonds deposited by Direct Participants with DTC are registered in the name of DTC’s partnership nominee, Cede & Co., or such other name as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. The deposit of Bonds with DTC and their registration in the name of Cede & Co. or such 9 other DTC nominee do not affect any change in beneficial ownership. DTC has no knowledge of the actual Beneficial Owners of the Bonds; DTC’s records reflect only the identity of the Direct Participants to whose accounts such Bonds are credited, which may or may not be the Beneficial Owners. The Direct and Indirect Participants will remain responsible for keeping account of their holdings on behalf of their customers. Conveyance of notices and other communications by DTC to Direct Participants, by Direct Participants to Indirect Participants, and by Direct Participants and Indirect Participants to Beneficial Owners will be governed by arrangements among them, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time to time. Beneficial Owners of Bonds may wish to take certain steps to augment the transmission to them of notices of significant events with respect to the Bonds, such as redemptions, tenders, defaults, and proposed amendments to the Bond documents. For example, Beneficial Owners of Bonds may wish to ascertain that the nominee holding the Bonds for their benefit has agreed to obtain and transmit notices to Beneficial Owners. In the alternative, Beneficial Owners may wish to provide their names and addresses to the registrar and request that copies of notices be provided directly to them. Redemption notices for the Bonds shall be sent to DTC. If less than all Bonds of the same maturity are being redeemed, DTC’s practice is to determine by lot the amount of the interest of each Direct Participant of such maturity to be redeemed. Neither DTC nor Cede & Co. (nor any other DTC nominee) will consent or vote with respect to Bonds unless authorized by a Direct Participant in accordance with DTC’s MMI Procedures. Under its usual procedures, DTC mails an Omnibus Proxy to the City as soon as possible after the record date. The Omnibus Proxy assigns Cede & Co.’s consenting or voting rights to those Direct Participants to whose accounts Bonds are credited on the record date (identified in a listing attached to the Omnibus Proxy). Principal, interest, and all other payments on the Bonds will be made to Cede & Co., or such other nominee as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. DTC’s practice is to credit Direct Participants’ accounts upon DTC’s receipt of funds and corresponding detail information from the City or Paying Agent/Registrar, on the payable date in accordance with their respective holdings shown on DTC’s records. Payments by Participants to Beneficial Owners will be governed by standing instructions and customary practices, as is the case with securities held for the accounts of customers in bearer form or registered in “street name,” and will be the responsibility of such Participant and not of DTC nor its nominee, the Trustee, the Paying Agent/Registrar, or the City, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time to time. Payment of principal, interest, and all other payments to Cede & Co. (or such other nominee as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC) is the responsibility of the Trustee, the Paying Agent/Registrar or the City, disbursement of such payments to Direct Participants will be the responsibility of DTC, and disbursement of such payments to the Beneficial Owners will be the responsibility of Direct and Indirect Participants. DTC may discontinue providing its services as securities depository with respect to the Bonds at any time by giving reasonable notice to the City, the Trustee, or the Paying Agent/Registrar. Under such circumstances, in the event that a successor depository is not obtained, Bond certificates are required to be printed and delivered. The City may decide to discontinue use of the system of book-entry-only transfers through DTC (or a successor securities depository). In that event, Bond certificates will be printed and delivered. Thereafter, Bond certificates may be transferred and exchanged as described in the Indenture. The information in this section concerning DTC and DTC’s book-entry system has been obtained from sources that the City believes to be reliable, but none of the City, the City’s Financial Advisor, or the Underwriter take any responsibility for the accuracy thereof. NONE OF THE CITY, THE TRUSTEE, THE PAYING AGENT/REGISTRAR, THE CITY’S FINANCIAL ADVISOR, OR THE UNDERWRITER WILL HAVE ANY RESPONSIBILITY OR OBLIGATION TO THE DTC PARTICIPANTS OR THE PERSONS FOR WHOM THEY ACT AS NOMINEE WITH RESPECT TO THE PAYMENTS TO OR THE PROVIDING OF NOTICE FOR THE DTC DIRECT PARTICIPANTS, THE INDIRECT PARTICIPANTS OR THE BENEFICIAL OWNERS OF THE BONDS. THE CITY CANNOT AND DOES NOT GIVE ANY ASSURANCES THAT DTC, THE DIRECT PARTICIPANTS, THE INDIRECT 10 PARTICIPANTS, OR OTHERS WILL DISTRIBUTE PAYMENTS OF PRINCIPAL OF OR INTEREST ON THE BONDS PAID TO DTC OR ITS NOMINEE, AS THE REGISTERED OWNER, OR PROVIDE ANY NOTICES TO THE BENEFICIAL OWNERS OR THAT THEY WILL DO SO ON A TIMELY BASIS, OR THAT DTC WILL ACT IN THE MANNER DESCRIBED IN THIS LIMITED OFFERING MEMORANDUM. THE CURRENT RULES APPLICABLE TO DTC ARE ON FILE WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION, AND THE CURRENT PROCEDURES OF DTC TO BE FOLLOWED IN DEALING WITH DTC PARTICIPANTS ARE ON FILE WITH DTC. Use of Certain Terms in Other Sections of this Limited Offering Memorandum. In reading this Limited Offering Memorandum it should be understood that while the Bonds are in the Book-Entry-Only System, references in other sections of this Limited Offering Memorandum to registered owners should be read to include the person for which the participant acquires an interest in the Bonds, but (i) all rights of ownership must be exercised through DTC and the Book-Entry-Only System and (ii) except as described above, notices that are to be given to registered owners under the Indenture will be given only to DTC. SECURITY FOR THE BONDS The following is a summary of certain provisions contained in the Indenture. Reference is made to the Indenture for a full statement of the terms and provisions of the Bonds. Investors must read the entire Indenture to obtain information essential to the making of an informed investment decision. See “APPENDIX B — Form of Indenture.” General THE BONDS ARE SPECIAL, LIMITED OBLIGATIONS OF THE CITY PAYABLE SOLELY FROM THE PLEDGED REVENUES AND OTHER ASSETS COMPRISING THE TRUST ESTATE, AS AND TO THE EXTENT PROVIDED IN THE INDENTURE. THE BONDS DO NOT GIVE RISE TO A CHARGE AGAINST THE GENERAL CREDIT OR TAXING POWER OF THE CITY AND ARE PAYABLE SOLELY FROM THE SOURCES IDENTIFIED IN THE INDENTURE. THE OWNERS OF THE BONDS SHALL NEVER HAVE THE RIGHT TO DEMAND PAYMENT THEREOF OUT OF MONEY RAISED OR TO BE RAISED BY TAXATION, OR OUT OF ANY FUNDS OF THE CITY OTHER THAN THE TRUST ESTATE, AS AND TO THE EXTENT PROVIDED IN THE INDENTURE. NO OWNER OF THE BONDS SHALL HAVE THE RIGHT TO DEMAND ANY EXERCISE OF THE CITY’S TAXING POWER TO PAY THE PRINCIPAL OF THE BONDS OR THE INTEREST OR REDEMPTION PREMIUM, IF ANY, THEREON. THE CITY SHALL HAVE NO LEGAL OR MORAL OBLIGATION TO PAY THE BONDS OUT OF ANY FUNDS OF THE CITY OTHER THAN THE PLEDGED REVENUES AND OTHER ASSETS COMPRISING THE TRUST ESTATE. The principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds are secured by a pledge of and a lien upon the Trust Estate, consisting primarily of Assessment Revenues levied against Assessed Property within Improvement Area #1 of the District and other assets comprising the Trust Estate, all to the extent and upon the conditions described herein and in the Indenture. See APPENDIX B – Form of Indenture. In accordance with the PID Act, the City has caused the preparation of a Service and Assessment Plan in connection with the levy of assessments in the District (including the Assessments), and expects to adopt a final Amended and Restated Service and Assessment Plan in connection with the authorization of the issuance of the Bonds. The Service and Assessment Plan describes the special benefit received by the property within the District, including Improvement Area #1, provides the basis and justification for the determination of special benefit on such property, establishes the methodology for the levy of Assessments, and provides for the allocation of Pledged Revenues for payment of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds. The Service and Assessment Plan is reviewed and updated annually for the purpose of determining the annual budget for improvements and the Annual Installments of Assessments due in a given year. The determination by the City of the assessment methodology set forth in the Service and Assessment Plan is the result of the discretionary exercise by the City Council of its legislative authority and governmental powers and is conclusive and binding on all current and future landowners within the District, including Improvement Area #1. See “APPENDIX C – Service and Assessment Plan.” 11 Pledged Revenues The City is authorized by the PID Act, the Assessment Ordinance, and other provisions of law to finance the Improvement Area #1 Improvements by levying Assessments upon properties in Improvement Area #1 of the District benefitted thereby. For a description of the assessment methodology and the amounts of Assessments levied in Improvement Area #1 of the District, see “ASSESSMENT PROCEDURES” and “APPENDIX B – Service and Assessment Plan.” Pursuant to the Indenture: “Additional Interest” means the amount collected by the application of the Additional Interest Rate. “Additional Interest Rate” means the 0.50% additional interest charged on the Assessments pursuant to Section 372.018 of the PID Act. “Annual Collection Costs” mean the actual or budgeted costs and expenses related to the creation and operation of the District, the issuance and sale of Bonds, and the construction, operation, and maintenance of the Improvement Area #1 Improvements, including, but not limited to, costs and expenses for: (1) the Administrator and City staff; (2) legal counsel, engineers, accountants, financial advisors, and other consultants engaged by the City; (3) calculating, collecting, and maintaining records with respect to Assessments and Annual Installments, including the costs of foreclosure; (4) preparing and maintaining records with respect to Assessment Roll and Annual Service Plan Updates; (5) issuing, paying, and redeeming the Bonds; (6) investing or depositing Assessments and Annual Installments; (7) complying with the Service and Assessment Plan and the PID Act with respect to the issuance and sale of the Bonds, including continuing disclosure requirements; and (8) the paying agent/registrar and Trustee in connection with the Bonds, including their respective legal counsel. Annual Collection Costs collected but not expended in any year shall be carried forward and applied to reduce Annual Collection Costs for subsequent years. “Annual Installment” means, with respect to each Parcel of Assessed Property, each annual payment of (i) the principal of and interest on the Assessments as shown on the Assessment Roll or in an Annual Service Plan Update, and as shown in Exhibit G-2 to the Service and Assessment Plan, and calculated as provided in Section VI of the Service and Assessment Plan, (ii) Annual Collection Costs, and (iii) the Additional Interest. “Annual Service Plan Update” means an update to the Service and Assessment Plan prepared no less frequently than annually by the Administrator and approved by the City Council. “Assessed Property” means the property located in Improvement Area #1 that benefits from the Improvement Area #1 Improvements, and is defined as the “Improvement Area #1 Assessed Property” in the Service and Assessment Plan. “Assessment Revenues” means the revenues received by the City from the collection of Assessments, including Prepayments, Annual Installments, and Foreclosure Proceeds. “Assessment Roll” means the “Improvement Area #1 Assessment Roll,” which document is attached to the Service and Assessment Plan as Exhibit G-1, as updated, modified, or amended from time to time. “Assessments” means an assessment levied against Assessed Property based on the special benefit conferred on such Assessed Property by the Improvement Area #1 Improvements. “Delinquent Collection Costs” mean costs related to the foreclosure on Assessed Property and the costs of collection of delinquent Assessments, delinquent Annual Installments, or any other delinquent amounts due under the Service and Assessment Plan, including penalties and reasonable attorney’s fees actually paid, but excluding amounts representing interest and penalty interest. “Foreclosure Proceeds” means the proceeds, including interest and penalty interest, received by the City from the enforcement of the Assessments against any Assessed Property, whether by foreclosure of lien or otherwise, but excluding and net of all Delinquent Collection Costs. 12 “Pledged Funds” means, collectively, the Pledged Revenue Fund, the Bond Fund, the Project Fund, the Reserve Fund, and the Redemption Fund. “Pledged Revenues” mean, collectively, the (i) Assessment Revenues (excluding the portion of the Assessments and Annual Installments collected for the payment of Annual Collection Costs and Delinquent Collection Costs, as set forth in the Service and Assessment Plan), (ii) the moneys held in any of the Pledged Funds, and (iii) any additional revenues that the City may pledge to the payment of the Bonds. “Prepayment” means the payment of all or a portion of an Assessment before the due date thereof. Amounts received at the time of a Prepayment which represent a payment of principal, interest, or penalties on a delinquent installment of an Assessment are not to be considered a Prepayment, but rather are to be treated as the payment of the regularly scheduled Assessment. “Trust Estate” means the Trust Estate described in the granting clauses of the Indenture, and the Trust Estate shall only include Pledged Revenues related to the Assessments levied on the Assessed Property within Improvement Area #1, unless the City pledges additional revenues to the payment of the Bonds, which additional pledge may only be created in a Supplemental Indenture. The City will covenant in the Indenture that it will take and pursue all actions permissible under Applicable Laws to cause the Assessments to be collected and the liens thereof to be enforced continuously. See “SECURITY FOR THE BONDS – Pledged Revenue Fund.” See also “APPENDIX B – Form of Indenture” and “APPENDIX C – Service and Assessment Plan.” The PID Act provides that the Assessments (including any reassessment, with interest, the expense of collection and reasonable attorney’s fees, if incurred) are a first and prior lien (the “Assessment Lien”) against the property assessed, superior to all other liens and claims, except liens or claims for State, county, school district, or municipality ad valorem taxes and are a personal liability of and charge against the owners of property, regardless of whether the owners are named. Pursuant to the PID Act, the Assessment Lien is effective from the date of the Assessment Ordinance until the Assessments are paid (or otherwise discharged), and is enforceable by the City Council in the same manner that an ad valorem property tax levied against real property may be enforced by the City Council. See “ASSESSMENT PROCEDURES.” The Assessment Lien is superior to any homestead rights of a property owner that were properly claimed after the adoption of the Assessment Ordinance. However, an Assessment Lien may not be foreclosed upon if any homestead rights of a property owner were properly claimed prior to the adoption of the Assessment Ordinance (“Pre-existing Homestead Rights”) for as long as such rights are maintained on the property. See “BONDHOLDERS’ RISKS – Assessment Limitations.” Collection and Deposit of Assessments The Assessments shown on the Assessment Roll, together with the interest thereon, shall first be applied to the payment of the principal of and interest on the Bonds as and to the extent provided in the Service and Assessment Plan and the Indenture. In the event the City owes Rebatable Arbitrage to the United States Government, the Assessments shall first be applied to pay the full amount of Rebatable Arbitrage owed by the City, prior to any transfers to the Bond Fund. The Assessments assessed to pay debt service on the Bonds, together with interest thereon, are payable in Annual Installments established by the Assessment Ordinance and the Service and Assessment Plan to correspond, as nearly as practicable, to the debt service requirements for the Bonds. An Annual Installment of an Assessment has been made payable in the Assessment Ordinance in each fiscal year of the City preceding the date of final maturity of the Bonds which, if collected, will be sufficient to first pay debt service requirements attributable to Assessments in the Service and Assessment Plan. Each Annual Installment is payable as provided in the Service and Assessment Plan and the Assessment Ordinance. A record of the Assessments on each parcel, tract, or lot which are to be collected in each year during the term of the Bonds is shown on the Assessment Roll. Sums received from the collection of the Assessments to pay 13 the debt service requirements (including delinquent installments, Foreclosure Proceeds, and penalties) and of the interest thereon shall be deposited into the Bond Pledged Revenue Account of the Pledged Revenue Fund. Promptly after the deposit of Foreclosure Proceeds into the Pledged Revenue Fund, the Trustee shall transfer such Foreclosure Proceeds first, to the Reserve Fund to restore any transfers from the Reserve Fund made with respect to the particular assessed property to which the Foreclosure Proceeds relate (first, to replenish the Reserve Account Requirement and second, to replenish the Delinquency and Prepayment Reserve Account Requirement), and second, to the Redemption Fund. See “SECURITY FOR THE BONDS – Pledged Revenue Fund” and “APPENDIX B – Form of Indenture.” The portions of the Annual Installments of Assessments collected to pay Annual Collection Costs and Delinquent Collection Costs shall be deposited in the Administrative Fund and shall not constitute Pledged Revenues. Amount of Assessments May be Reduced by TIRZ No. 4 Annual Credit Amount The TIRZ No. 4 Ordinance authorized the use of a portion of ad valorem tax increment attributable to the new development within TIRZ No. 4 (the “TIRZ Increment”) for Project Costs, as provided for and defined in the TIRZ No. 4 Project Plan, including costs of the Improvement Area #1 Improvements. Pursuant to the Development Agreement and the TIRZ No. 4 Project Plan, the City will agree to contribute a portion of the TIRZ Increment attributable to development within the District (such portion, the “Residential Increment”) into a tax increment fund created by the City (the “TIRZ Fund”) to pay Project Costs within TIRZ No. 4, including the costs of the Improvement Area #1 Improvements and financing costs related thereto. The Residential Increment for each year will equal fifty percent (50%) of the ad valorem taxes collected and received by the City on the Captured Taxable Value (as defined below) of real property in the District, less administration costs related to the portion of TIRZ No. 4 within the District. With respect to Improvement Area #1 of the District, the “Captured Taxable Value” for each year means that year’s taxable assessed value of all taxable real property within Improvement Area #1 of the District less the Tax Increment Base for all taxable real property within Improvement Area #1 of the District. The “Tax Increment Base” for Improvement Area #1 of the District is the total taxable value as of January 1, 2022, of all taxable real property located within Improvement Area #1 of the District, which is equal to $18,649. In the Development Agreement, the City has agreed to use the Residential Increment generated from each parcel or lot within Improvement Area #1 of the District (the “TIRZ No. 4 Annual Credit Amount”) and deposited to the TIRZ Fund to offset a portion of the principal and interest portion of such lot’s Annual Installment of Assessments due the following year, as calculated by the PID Administrator in collaboration with the City, in accordance with the Service and Assessment Plan. The Annual Installment will be calculated by taking into consideration any TIRZ No. 4 Annual Credit Amount applicable to such lot. Under the TIRZ Ordinance and TIRZ Project Plan, the Residential Increment generated by each lot in any given year shall be used to calculate such lot’s TIRZ No. 4 Annual Credit Amount in the following year (i.e., TIRZ Contribution collected in 2023 shall be used to calculate the TIRZ No. 4 Annual Credit Amount applicable to Annual Installments to be collected in 2024). The Residential Increment is generated only from ad valorem taxes levied and collected by the City on the Captured Taxable Value on the applicable lot in any year. Consequently, the Residential Increment is generated only if the appraised value of real property on such lot in any year is greater than the Tax Increment Base for such lot. Any delay or failure of the Developer or the Homebuilder to develop Improvement Area #1 may result in a reduced amount of the Residential Increment being available to credit the Annual Installments. See “ASSESSMENT PROCEDURES – Assessment Amounts – TIRZ Annual Credit Amount” and “APPENDIX C – Service and Assessment Plan.” TIRZ No. 4 will terminate, unless the City elects to extend the term, upon the earlier to occur of (i) December 31, 2057, or (ii) the date that all Project Costs have been paid (whether through the District or TIRZ No. 4). The City expects to contribute the Residential Increment for Improvement Area #1 for the last year in calendar year 2052 and apply it to the TIRZ No. 4 Annual Credit Amount in 2053. 14 THE TIRZ CONTRIBUTION WILL NOT BE PLEDGED TO THE PAYMENT OF THE BONDS. THE TIRZ NO. 4 ANNUAL CREDIT AMOUNT WILL NOT BE APPLIED IN ANY MANNER THAT WOULD AFFECT THE COLLECTION AND CONTINUOUS ENFORCEMENT OF THE ASSESSMENTS COLLECTED FOR THE PAYMENT OF DEBT SERVICE ON THE BONDS AND ANNUAL COLLECTION COSTS AND THE FUNDING OF THE ADDITIONAL INTEREST RESERVE REQUIREMENT, IN THE MANNER AND TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAWS. SUCH TIRZ NO. 4 ANNUAL CREDIT AMOUNT IS NOT EXPECTED TO BE AVAILABLE TO REDUCE THE PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST PORTION OF THE ANNUAL INSTALLMENT FOR ANY ASSESSED PARCEL UNTIL 2024 AND MAY BE LATER. Unconditional Levy of Assessments The City will impose Assessments on the property within Improvement Area #1 of the District to pay the principal of and interest on the Bonds scheduled for payment from Pledged Revenues as described in the Indenture and in the Service and Assessment Plan and coming due during each Fiscal Year. The Assessments are effective on the date of, and strictly in accordance with the terms of, the Assessment Ordinance. Each Assessment may be paid in full or in part at any time, or in periodic Annual Installments over a period of time equal to the term of the Bonds, which installments shall include interest on the Assessments. Pursuant to the Assessment Ordinance, interest on the Assessments for each lot within Improvement Area #1 of the District began to accrue on the date specified in the Service and Assessment Plan and, prior to issuance of the Bonds, is calculated at a rate specified in the Assessment Ordinance. After issuance of the Bonds, interest on the Assessments for each lot within Improvement Area #1 of the District will accrue at a rate specified in the Assessment Ordinance, but may not exceed the interest rate on the Bonds plus the 0.50% additional interest charged on Assessments pursuant to Section 372.018 of the Act (“Additional Interest”). Such interest rates may be adjusted as described in the Service and Assessment Plan. Each Annual Installment, including the interest on the unpaid amount of an Assessment, shall be calculated annually and shall be due on October 1 of each year. Each Annual Installment together with interest thereon shall be delinquent if not paid prior to February 1 of the following year. As authorized by Section 372.018(b) of the PID Act, the City will levy, assess, and will continue to collect, each year while the Bonds are Outstanding and unpaid, a portion of each Annual Installment to pay the annual costs incurred by the City in the administration and operation of the District. The portion of each Annual Installment used to pay such annual costs shall remain in effect from year to year until all Bonds are finally paid or until the City adjusts the amount of the levy after an annual review in any year pursuant to Section 372.013 of the PID Act. The assessments to pay Annual Collection Costs shall be due in the manner set forth in the Assessment Ordinance on October 1 of each year and shall be delinquent if not paid by February 1 of the following year. Such amounts to pay Annual Collection Costs do not secure repayment of the Bonds. There is no discount for the early payment of Assessments. Assessments, together with interest, penalties, and expense of collection and reasonable attorneys’ fees, as permitted by the Texas Tax Code, shall be a first and prior lien against the property assessed, superior to all other liens and claims, except liens or claims for State, county, school district, or municipality ad valorem taxes and shall be a personal liability of and charge against the owner of the property regardless of whether the owners are named, and runs with the land. The lien for Assessments and penalties and interest began on the effective date of the Assessment Ordinance and continues until the Assessments are paid or until all Bonds are finally paid. Failure to pay an Annual Installment when due will not accelerate the payment of the remaining Annual Installments of the Assessments and such remaining Annual Installments (including interest) shall continue to be due and payable at the same time and in the same amount and manner as if such default had not occurred. Perfected Security Interest The lien on and pledge of the Pledged Revenues to secure the Bonds shall be valid and binding and fully perfected from and after the Closing Date, without physical delivery or transfer of control of the Pledged Revenues, the filing of the Indenture or any other act; all as provided in Texas Government Code, Chapter 1208, as amended, which applies to the issuance of the Bonds and the pledge of the Pledged Revenues granted by the City under the 15 Indenture, and such pledge is therefore valid, effective, and perfected. If Texas law is amended at any time while the Bonds are Outstanding such that the pledge of the Pledged Revenues granted by the City under the Indenture is to be subject to the filing requirements of Texas Business and Commerce Code, Chapter 9, as amended, then in order to preserve to the registered owners of the Bonds the perfection of the security interest in said pledge, the City agrees to take such measures as it determines are reasonable and necessary under Texas law to comply with the applicable provisions of Texas Business and Commerce Code, Chapter 9, as amended, and enable a filing to perfect the security interest in said pledge to occur. See “APPENDIX B – Form of Indenture.” Pledged Revenue Fund Periodically upon receipt thereof, the City shall transfer or cause to be transferred, pursuant to a City Certificate provided to the Trustee for deposit to the Pledged Revenue Fund the Assessments and Annual Installments, other than the portion of the Assessments and Annual Installments allocated to the payment of Annual Collection Costs and Delinquent Collection Costs, which shall be deposited to the Administrative Fund in accordance with the Indenture. Following such deposit to the Pledged Revenue Fund, the City shall transfer or cause to be transferred pursuant to a City Certificate provided to the Trustee the following amounts from the Pledged Revenue Fund to the following Accounts: (i) first, to the Bond Pledged Revenue Account of the Pledged Revenue Fund, an amount sufficient to pay debt service on the Bonds next coming due, and (ii) second, if necessary, to the Reserve Account of the Reserve Fund, an amount to cause the amount in the Reserve Account to equal the Reserve Account Requirement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Additional Interest shall only be utilized for the purposes set forth in the Indenture and, immediately following the initial deposit to the Pledged Revenue Fund, prior to any other transfers or deposits being made as described in this paragraph, if the Delinquency and Prepayment Reserve Account of the Reserve Fund does not contain the Delinquency and Prepayment Reserve Requirement and Additional Interest is collected, then all such Additional Interest will be transferred into the Delinquency and Prepayment Reserve Account until the Delinquency and Prepayment Reserve Requirement is met. In addition, in the event the City owes Rebatable Arbitrage to the United States Government pursuant to the Indenture, the City shall provide a City Certificate to the Trustee to transfer to the Rebate Fund, prior to any other transfer described in this paragraph, the full amount of Rebatable Arbitrage owed by the City, as further described in the Indenture. If any funds remain on deposit in the Pledged Revenue Fund after the foregoing deposits are made, the City shall have the option, in its sole and absolute discretion, to use such excess funds for any one or more of the following purposes: (i) to pay costs of the Improvement Area #1 Improvements, (ii) to pay other costs permitted by the PID Act, or (iii) to deposit such excess into the Redemption Fund to redeem Bonds as provided in the Indenture. Along with each transfer to the Trustee, the City shall provide a certificate as to the funds, accounts, and payments into which the amounts are to be deposited or paid. From time to time as needed to pay the obligations relating to the Bonds, but no later than five (5) Business Days before each Interest Payment Date, the Trustee shall withdraw from the Pledged Revenue Fund and transfer to the Principal and Interest Account of the Bond Fund, an amount, taking into account any amounts then on deposit in such Principal and Interest Account, such that the amount on deposit in the Principal and Interest Account equals the principal (including any Sinking Fund Installments) and interest due on the Bonds on the next Interest Payment Date. If, after the foregoing transfers and any transfer from the Reserve Fund as provided in the Indenture, there are insufficient funds to make the payments provided in the preceding paragraph above, the Trustee shall apply the available funds in the Principal and Interest Account first to the payment of interest, then to the payment of principal (including any Sinking Fund Installments) on the Bonds. The Trustee shall transfer Prepayments to the Redemption Fund to be used to redeem Bonds pursuant the Indenture promptly after deposit of such amounts into the Pledged Revenue Fund. Promptly after the deposit of Foreclosure Proceeds into the Pledged Revenue Fund, the Trustee shall transfer such Foreclosure Proceeds first to the Reserve Fund to restore any transfers from the Accounts within the Reserve Fund made with respect to the particular Assessed Property to which the Foreclosure Proceeds relate (first, to replenish the Reserve Account Requirement and second, to replenish the Delinquency & Prepayment Reserve Requirement), and second, to the Redemption Fund to be used to redeem Bonds pursuant to the Indenture. 16 After satisfaction of the requirement to provide for the payment of the principal and interest on the Bonds and to fund any deficiency that may exist in the Reserve Fund, the Trustee shall transfer any Pledged Revenues remaining in the Pledged Revenue Fund for the purposes set forth in the Indenture as directed by the City in a City Certificate. Bond Fund On each Interest Payment Date, the Trustee shall withdraw from the Principal and Interest Account of the Bond Fund and transfer to the Paying Agent/Registrar the principal (including any Sinking Fund Installments) and interest then due and payable on the Bonds. If amounts in the Principal and Interest Account are insufficient for the purposes set forth above, the Trustee shall withdraw from the Reserve Fund amounts to cover the amount of such insufficiency. Amounts so withdrawn from the Reserve Fund shall be deposited in the Principal and Interest Account and transferred to the Paying Agent/Registrar. If, after the foregoing transfers and any transfer from the Reserve Fund as provided in the Indenture, there are insufficient funds to make the payments provided above, the Trustee shall apply the available funds in the Principal and Interest Account first to the payment of interest, then to the payment of principal (including any Sinking Fund Installments) on the Bonds. Project Fund Money on deposit in the Project Fund shall be used for the purposes specified in the Indenture. Disbursements from the Costs of Issuance Account of the Project Fund shall be made by the Trustee to pay costs of issuance of the Bonds pursuant to one or more City Certificates. Disbursements from the Improvement Area #1 Bond Improvement Account of the Project Fund to pay Improvement Area #1 Improvements shall be made by the Trustee upon receipt by the Trustee of a properly executed and completed Certificate for Payment. The funds from the Improvement Area #1 Bond Improvement Account of the Project Fund shall be disbursed in accordance with a Certificate for Payment for Improvement Area #1 Improvements as described in the Reimbursement Agreement. Except as provided in the succeeding paragraphs below, money on deposit in the Improvement Area #1 Bond Improvement Account of the Project Fund shall be used solely to pay Improvement Area #1 Improvements. If the City Representative determines in his or her sole discretion that certain amounts then on deposit in the Improvement Area #1 Bond Improvement Account 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 Area #1 Improvements such that, in the opinion of the City Representative, it is unlikely that the amounts in the Improvement Area #1 Bond Improvement Account will ever be expended for the purposes of the Project Fund, the City Representative shall file a City Certificate with the Trustee which identifies the amounts then on deposit in the Improvement Area #1 Bond Improvement Account that are not expected to be used for purposes of the Project Fund. If such City Certificate is so filed, the identified amounts on deposit in the Improvement Area #1 Bond Improvement Account shall be transferred to the Bond Fund or to the Redemption Fund to be used to redeem Bonds pursuant to the Indenture as directed by the City Representative in a City Certificate filed with the Trustee. Upon such transfer, the Improvement Area #1 Bond Improvement Account of the Project Fund shall be closed. In making any determination regarding the Project Fund pursuant to the Indenture, the City Representative may conclusively rely upon a certificate of an Independent Financial Consultant. Upon the filing of a City Certificate stating that all Improvement Area #1 Improvements have been completed and that all Improvement Area #1 Improvements have been paid, or that any Improvement Area #1 Improvements are not required to be paid from the Project Fund pursuant to a Certificate for Payment, the Trustee shall transfer the amount, if any, remaining within the Improvement Area #1 Bond Improvement Account of the Project Fund to the Bond Fund or to the Redemption Fund to be used to redeem Bonds pursuant to the Indenture as directed by the City Representative in a City Certificate filed with the Trustee. Upon such transfer, the Improvement Area #1 Bond Improvement Account of the Project Fund shall be closed. 17 The aggregate amount of funds that the Trustee may disburse from the Improvement Area #1 Bond Improvement Account shall not exceed $13,101,549.34* (the “Authorized Amount”) except and until a Release Condition (defined below) has been satisfied. The Trustee may make disbursements from the Improvement Area #1 Bond Improvement Account that exceed the Authorized Amount only when the Developer provides written certification to the Trustee and the City in a Certificate for Payment that a Release Condition has been satisfied. The first Certificate for Payment that requests funds in excess of the Authorized Amount from the Improvement Area #1 Bond Improvement Account after satisfaction of a Release Condition shall be submitted to the City, the City’s financial advisor, Bond Counsel, and the Administrator for review and confirmation, and upon confirmation that such Release Condition has been satisfied, such Certificate for Payment shall be forwarded to the Trustee by the Administrator. Money may be disbursed from the Improvement Area #1 Bond Improvement Account in excess of the Authorized Amount only if the City has issued a certificate of occupancy for at least 100 homes within the Improvement Area #1 (each a “Release Condition”). The City may not approve a Certificate for Payment for payment from the Improvement Area #1 Bond Improvement Account for any amounts that exceed the Authorized Amount until at least one of the Release Conditions have been satisfied. Upon a determination by the City 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 the Improvement Area #1 Bond Improvement Account of the Project Fund and used to pay the cost of Improvement Area #1 Improvements or to the Principal and Interest Account and used to pay interest on the Bonds, as directed in a City Certificate filed with the Trustee, and the Costs of Issuance Account shall be closed. In the event the Developer has not completed the Improvement Area #1 Improvements by October 10, 2028, then the City shall provide written direction to the Trustee to transfer all funds on deposit in the Improvement Area #1 Bond Improvement Account to the Redemption Fund to redeem Bonds pursuant to the Indenture. Upon such transfer, the Improvement Area #1 Bond Improvement Account of the Project Fund shall be closed. Reserve Fund (Reserve Account and Delinquency and Prepayment Reserve Account) Pursuant to the Indenture, a Reserve Account will be created within the Reserve Fund, held by the Trustee for the benefit of the Bonds, and initially funded with proceeds of the Bonds in the amount of the Reserve Account Requirement. Pursuant to the Indenture, the “Reserve Account Requirement” for the Bonds shall be the least of (i) Maximum Annual Debt Service on the Bonds as of their date of issuance, (ii) 125% of average Annual Debt Service on the Bonds as of their date of issuance, and (iii) 10% of the proceeds of the Bonds, however, that such amount shall be reduced by the amount of any transfers made to the Redemption Fund as a result of Prepayments; and provided further that as a result of (1) an optional redemption or (2) an extraordinary optional redemption, the Reserve Account Requirement shall be reduced by a percentage equal to the pro rata principal amount of Bonds redeemed by such redemption divided by the total principal amount of the Outstanding Bonds prior to such redemption. As of the date of issuance of the Bonds, the Reserve Account Requirement is $*, which is an amount equal to the [Maximum Annual Debt Service] on the Bonds as of their date of issuance. The City will agree with the Owners of the Bonds to accumulate and, when accumulated, maintain in the Reserve Account, an amount equal to not less than the Reserve Account Requirement. All amounts deposited in the Reserve Account 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 the Indenture. The Trustee will transfer from the Bond Pledged Revenue Account of the Pledged Revenue Fund to the Delinquency and Prepayment Reserve Account on March 15 of each year, commencing March 15, 2024, an amount the City confirms to the Trustee is equal to the Additional Interest until the Delinquency and Prepayment Reserve Requirement has been accumulated in the Delinquency and Prepayment Reserve Account; provided, however, that at any time the amount on deposit in the Delinquency and Prepayment Reserve Account is less than Delinquency and Prepayment Reserve Requirement, the Trustee shall resume depositing the Additional Interest into the Delinquency and Prepayment Reserve Account until the Delinquency and Prepayment Reserve Requirement has reaccumulated in the Delinquency and Prepayment Reserve Account. In transferring the amounts pursuant to the Indenture, the Trustee may conclusively rely on a City Certificate (which shall be based on the Annual Installments as shown on the Assessment Roll in the Service and Assessment Plan) unless and until it receives a City Certificate directing that a different amount be used. Whenever * Preliminary, subject to change. 18 a transfer is made from the Reserve Account to the Bond Fund due to a deficiency in the Bond Fund, the Trustee shall provide written notice thereof to the City, specifying the amount withdrawn and the source of said funds. The Additional Interest shall continue to be collected and deposited pursuant to the Indenture until the Bonds are no longer Outstanding. “Delinquency and Prepayment Reserve Requirement” means an amount equal to 5.5% of the principal amount of the Outstanding Bonds to be funded from the Additional Interest deposited to the Pledged Revenue Fund and transferred to the Delinquency and Prepayment Reserve Account. In the event of an extraordinary optional redemption of Bonds from the proceeds of a Prepayment pursuant to the Indenture, the Trustee, pursuant to a City Certificate, 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 Prepayment, the Trustee shall transfer an amount equal to the shortfall, or any additional amounts necessary to permit the Bonds to be redeemed in minimum principal amounts of $1,000, from the Delinquency and Prepayment Reserve Account to the Redemption Fund to be applied to the redemption of the Bonds. Whenever, on any Interest Payment Date, or on any other date at the written request of a City Representative, the value of cash and Value of Investment Securities on deposit in the Reserve Account exceeds the Reserve Account Requirement, the Trustee shall provide written notice to the City 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 the Indenture, unless within thirty days of such notice to the City Representative, the Trustee receives a City Certificate instructing the Trustee to apply such excess: (i) to pay amounts due to the U.S. Government in accordance with the Code, (ii) to the Administrative Fund in an amount not more than the Annual Collection Costs for the Bonds, (iii) to the Improvement Area #1 Bond Improvement Account of the Project Fund to pay costs of the Improvement Area #1 Improvements if such application and the expenditure of funds is expected to occur within three years, or (iv) to the Redemption Fund to be applied to the redemption of Bonds. Whenever, on any Interest Payment Date, or on any other date at the written request of a City Representative, the amounts on deposit in the Delinquency and Prepayment Reserve Account exceed the Delinquency and Prepayment Reserve Requirement, the Trustee shall provide written notice to the City of the amount of the excess, and such excess shall be transferred, at the direction of the City pursuant to a City Certificate, to the Administrative Fund for the payment of Annual Collection Costs or to the Redemption Fund to be used to redeem Bonds pursuant to the Indenture. In the event that the Trustee does not receive a City Certificate directing the transfer of such excess to the Administrative Fund within 45 days of providing notice to the City of such excess, the Trustee shall transfer such excess to the Redemption Fund to redeem Bonds pursuant to the Indenture and provide the City with written notification of the transfer. The Trustee shall incur no liability for the accuracy or validity of the transfer so long as the Trustee made such transfer in full compliance with the Indenture. Whenever, on any Interest Payment Date, the amount on deposit in the Bond Fund is insufficient to pay the debt service on the Bonds due on such date, the Trustee shall transfer first from the Delinquency and Prepayment Reserve Account of the Reserve Fund and second from the Reserve Account of the Reserve Fund to the Bond Fund the amounts necessary to cure such deficiency. At the final maturity of the Bonds, the amount on deposit in the Reserve Account and the Delinquency and Prepayment Reserve Account shall be transferred to the Principal and Interest Account and applied to the payment of the principal of the Bonds. If, after a Reserve Account withdrawal, the amount on deposit in the Reserve Account is less than the Reserve Account Requirement, the Trustee shall transfer from the Pledged Revenue Fund to the Reserve Account 19 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. 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 on the next date the Bonds may be optionally redeemed by the City at a redemption price of par, together with the unpaid interest accrued on such Bonds as of such date, the moneys shall be transferred to the Redemption Fund and thereafter used to redeem all Bonds on such date. Administrative Fund The City has created under the Indenture an Administrative Fund held by the Trustee. Periodically, upon receipt thereof, the City shall deposit or cause to be deposited to the Administrative Fund the portion of the Assessments and Annual Installments allocated to the payment of Annual Collection Costs and Delinquent Collection Costs, as set forth in the Service and Assessment Plan. Moneys in the Administrative Fund shall be held by the Trustee separate and apart from the other Funds created and administered under the Indenture and used as directed by a City Certificate solely for the purposes set forth in the Service and Assessment Plan, including payment of the Annual Collection Costs and Delinquent Collection Costs. See “APPENDIX C – Service and Assessment Plan.” THE ADMINISTRATIVE FUND IS NOT PART OF THE TRUST ESTATE AND IS NOT SECURITY FOR THE BONDS. Defeasance 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 the Indenture (a “Defeased Debt”), 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 (i) shall have been made in accordance with the terms thereof, or (ii) 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 that 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 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 and shall not be part of the Trust Estate. 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 City 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 the purpose of reinvesting cash as aforesaid shall be made only against delivery of such Defeasance Securities. “Defeasance Securities” means Investment Securities then authorized by applicable law for the investment of funds to defease public securities. “Investment Securities” means those authorized investments described in the Public Funds Investment Act, Chapter 2256, Texas Government Code, as amended, which investments are, at the time made, included in and authorized by the City’s official investment policy as approved by the City Council from time to time. Under current State law, Investment Securities that are authorized for the investment of funds to defease public securities are (a) direct, noncallable obligations of the United States of America, including obligations that are unconditionally guaranteed by the United States of America; (b) noncallable obligations of an agency or instrumentality of the United States of America, including obligations that are unconditionally guaranteed or insured by the agency or instrumentality, and that, on the date the governing body of the City adopts or approves the proceedings authorizing the defeasance, are rated as to investment quality by a nationally recognized investment rating firm not less than “AAA” or its equivalent; and (c) noncallable obligations of a state or an agency or a county, municipality, or other political subdivision of a state that have been refunded and that, on the date the governing 20 body of the City adopts or approves the proceedings authorizing the defeasance, are rated as to investment quality by a nationally recognized investment rating firm not less than “AAA” or its equivalent. There is no assurance that the current law will not be changed in a manner which would permit investments other than those described above to be made with amounts deposited to defease the Bonds. Because the Indenture does not contractually limit such investments, Owners will be deemed to have consented to defeasance with such other investments, notwithstanding the fact that such investments may not be of the same investment quality as those currently permitted under State law. There is no assurance that the ratings for U.S. Treasury securities used as Defeasance Securities or that for any other Defeasance Security will be maintained at any particular rating category. Events of Default Each of the following occurrences or events constitutes an “Event of Default” under the Indenture: i. The failure of the City to deposit the Pledged Revenues to the Pledged Revenue Fund; ii. The failure of the City to enforce the collection of the Assessments, including the prosecution of foreclosure proceedings; iii. Default in the performance or observance of any covenant, agreement, or obligation of the City under the Indenture, other than a default under (iv) below, 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 City by the Trustee, which may give notice in its discretion and which shall give such notice at the written request of the Owners of not less than 51% in principal amount of the Bonds; provided, however, if the default stated in the notice is capable of cure but cannot reasonably be cured within the applicable period, the City shall be entitled to a further extension of time reasonably necessary to remedy such default so long as corrective action is instituted by the City 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; and iv. The failure to make payment of the principal of or interest on any of the Bonds when the same becomes due and payable and such failure is not remedied within thirty (30) days thereafter. The Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of (a) any events or other information, or (b) any default under the Indenture or any other agreement unless a responsible officer of the Trustee shall have actual knowledge thereof. Remedies in Event of Default Upon the happening and continuance of any Event of Default, 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 aggregate Outstanding principal amount of the Bonds under the Indenture shall proceed, to protect and enforce the rights of the Owners under the 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 in the Indenture, or injunction; provided, however, that no action for money damages against the City may be sought or shall be permitted. THE PRINCIPAL OF THE BONDS SHALL NOT BE SUBJECT TO ACCELERATION UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES. If the assets of the Trust Estate are sufficient to pay all amounts due with respect to all Outstanding Bonds, in the selection of Trust Estate assets to be used in the payment of Bonds due in an Event of Default, the City shall determine, in its absolute discretion, and shall instruct the Trustee by City Certificate, 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 City shall fail to deliver to the Trustee such City Certificate, the Trustee shall select 21 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 City by reason of such liquidation or sale. The Trustee shall have no liability for its selection of Trust Estate assets to liquidate or sell. Whenever moneys are to be applied pursuant to the Indenture, irrespective of and whether other remedies authorized under the 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 the Trustee may deem appropriate, and as may be required by law and apply the proceeds thereof in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture. 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 City, 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 City 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, or in the reasonable judgment of the Trustee, proper for the purpose which may be designated in such request. Restriction on Owner’s Actions No Owner shall have any right to institute any action, suit, or proceeding at law or in equity for the enforcement of the Indenture or for the execution of any trust thereof or any other remedy thereunder, unless (i) a default has occurred and is continuing of which the Trustee has been notified in writing or of which the Trustee is deemed to have notice, (ii) such default has become an Event of Default and the Owners of not less than 51% in aggregate principal amount of the Bonds then Outstanding have made written request to the Trustee and offered it reasonable opportunity either to proceed to exercise the powers granted in the Indenture or to institute such action, suit, or proceeding in its own name, (iii) the Owners have furnished to the Trustee written evidence of indemnity as provided in the Indenture, (iv) the Trustee has for sixty (60) days after such notice failed or refused to exercise the powers granted in the Indenture, or to institute such action, suit, or proceeding in its own name, (v) no written direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Trustee during such 60-day period by the Owners of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Bonds then Outstanding, and (vi) notice of such action, suit, or proceeding is given to the Trustee in writing; however, no one or more Owners of the Bonds shall have any right in any manner whatsoever to affect, disturb, or prejudice the Indenture by its, his, or their action or to enforce any right under the Indenture except in the manner provided in the Indenture, and that all proceedings at law or in equity shall be instituted and maintained in the manner provided in the Indenture and for the equal benefit of the Owners of all Bonds then Outstanding. The notification, request, and furnishing of indemnity set forth in the Indenture shall, at the option of the Trustee as advised by its counsel, be conditions precedent to the execution of the powers and trusts of the Indenture and to any action or cause of action for the enforcement of the Indenture or for any other remedy under the Indenture. Subject to provisions of the Indenture with respect to certain liabilities of the City, nothing in the 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 City to pay each Bond issued thereunder to the respective Owners thereof at the time and place, from the source, and in the manner expressed therein and in the Bonds. In case the Trustee or any Owners shall have proceeded to enforce any right under the 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, then and in every such case the City, the Trustee, and the Owners shall be restored to their former positions and rights thereunder, and all rights, remedies, and powers of the Trustee shall continue as if no such proceedings had been taken. 22 Application of Revenues and Other Moneys After Event of Default All moneys, securities, funds, Pledged Revenues, and other assets of the Trust Estate and the income therefrom received by the Trustee pursuant to any right given or action taken under the provisions of the Indenture with respect to Events of Default shall, after payment of the cost and expenses of the proceedings resulting in the collection of such amounts, the expenses (including Trustee’s counsel fees, costs, and expenses), liabilities, and advances incurred or made by the Trustee, and the fees of the Trustee in carrying out the Indenture, be applied by the Trustee, on behalf of the City, to the payment of interest and principal or Redemption Price then due on Bonds, 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, or Redemption Price of any Bonds 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 due on any date, then to the payment thereof ratably, according to the amounts of principal due or Redemption Price and to the Owners entitled thereto, without any discrimination or preference. The Trustee shall make payments to the Owners pursuant to the provisions above within thirty (30) days of receipt of such good and available funds, and the record date shall be the date the Trustee receives such good and available funds. In the event funds are not adequate to cure any of the Events of Default described above, the available funds shall be allocated to the Bonds that are Outstanding in proportion to the quantity of Bonds that are currently due and in default under the terms of the Indenture. The restoration of the City to its prior position after any and all defaults have been cured, as provided above, shall not extend to or affect any subsequent default under the Indenture or impair any right consequent thereon. Investment or Deposit of Funds Money in any Fund or Account established pursuant to the Indenture, other than the Reserve Fund, shall be invested by the Trustee as directed by the City pursuant to a City Certificate 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 Fund shall be invested in such Investment Securities as directed by the City pursuant to a City Certificate 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. Obligations purchased as an investment of moneys in any Fund or Account shall be deemed to be part of such Fund or Account, subject, however, to the requirements of the Indenture for transfer of interest earnings and profits resulting from investment of amounts in Funds and Accounts. Whenever in the Indenture any moneys are required to be transferred by the City to the Trustee, such transfer may be accomplished by transferring a like amount of Investment Securities as directed by the City in writing. Against Encumbrances Other than Refunding Bonds issued to refund all or a portion of the Bonds, the City shall not create and, to the extent Pledged Revenues are received, shall not suffer to remain, any lien, encumbrance, or charge upon the Trust Estate or upon any other property pledged under the Indenture, except the pledge created for the security of the Bonds, and other than a lien or pledge subordinate to the lien and pledge of such property related to the Bonds. 23 So long as Bonds are Outstanding under the Indenture, the City shall not issue any bonds, notes, or other evidences of indebtedness other than the Bonds and any Refunding Bonds issued to refund all or a portion of the Bonds, secured by any pledge of or other lien or charge on the Trust Estate or other property pledged under the Indenture, other than a lien or pledge subordinate to the lien and pledge of such property related to the Bonds. Additional Obligations The City reserves the right, subject to the provisions contained in the Indenture, to issue Other Obligations under other indentures, assessment ordinances, or similar agreements or other obligations which do not constitute or create a lien on the Trust Estate, or any portion thereof. Other than Refunding Bonds issued to refund all or a portion of the Bonds, the City will not create or voluntarily permit to be created any debt, lien, or charge on the Trust Estate, and will not do or omit to do or suffer to be done or omit to be done any matter or things whatsoever whereby the lien of this Indenture or the priority thereof might or could be lost or impaired. Notwithstanding any contrary provision of the Indenture, the City shall not issue additional bonds, notes, or other obligations under the Indenture, secured by any pledge of or other lien or charge on the Trust Estate or other property pledged under the Indenture, other than Refunding Bonds and subordinate lien obligations permitted thereunder. The City reserves the right to issue Refunding Bonds, the proceeds of which would be utilized to refund all or any portion of the Outstanding Bonds or Outstanding Refunding Bonds and to pay all costs incident to the Refunding Bonds, as authorized by the laws of the State.

Such taxes are payable in addition to the Assessments. In addition to the City, Collin County, Texas, the Collin County Community College District, and the Anna Independent School District may each levy ad valorem taxes upon land in Improvement Area #1 of the District for payment of debt incurred by such governmental entities and/or for payment of maintenance and operations expenses. The City has no control over the level of ad valorem taxes or special assessments levied by such other taxing authorities. The following table compares the overlapping ad valorem tax rates currently levied on property located in Improvement Area #1 of the District with and without application of the TIRZ No. 4 2022 Annual Credit Amount.

THE REMAINDER OF THIS PAGE IS LEFT BLANK INTENTIONALLY. 27 As noted above, Improvement Area #1 of the District includes territory located in other governmental entities that may issue or incur debt secured by the levy and collection of ad valorem taxes or assessments. Set forth below is an overlapping debt table showing the outstanding indebtedness payable from ad valorem taxes with respect to property within Improvement Area #1 of the District, as of September 1, 2023, and City debt secured by the Assessments: Taxing or Assessing Entity Gross Outstanding Debt as of September 1, 2023 Estimated Percentage Applicable (1) Direct and Estimated Overlapping Debt (1) The City (Assessments - The Bonds) $20,343,000*100.000%$20,343,000* The City (Ad Valorem Taxes)163,557,000 1.090 1,790,515 Collin County, Texas 721,825,000 0.020 114,514 Collin County Community College District 480,350,000 0.020 85,029 Anna Independent School District 270,997,991 1.060 2,872,418 TOTAL $1,657,072,991 $25,205,479 * Preliminary, subject to change.

See “APPRAISAL.” Sources: Collin Central Appraisal District and Municipal Advisory Council of Texas If land is devoted principally to agricultural use, a landowner can apply for an agricultural valuation on the property and pay ad valorem taxes based on the land’s agricultural value. If land qualified for an agricultural valuation but the land use changes to a non-agricultural use, “rollback taxes” are assessed for each of the previous three (3) years in which the land received the lower agricultural valuation. The rollback tax is the difference between taxes paid on land’s agricultural value and the taxes that the landowner would have paid if the land had been taxed on a higher market value plus interest charged for each year from the date on which taxes would have been due. Beginning in 2023, Improvement Area #1 will no longer be subject to an agricultural valuation. The Developer expects to receive a change in use letter from Collin Central Appraisal District in 2023 for rollback taxes due by January 31, 2024. Homeowners’ Association Dues In addition to the Assessments described above, the Developer anticipates that each Lot owner in Improvement Area #1 of the District will pay a property owner’s association fee to a homeowner’s association formed by the Developer (the “HOA”) in the approximate amount of $1,350 annually. ASSESSMENT PROCEDURES General As required by the PID Act, when the City determines to defray a portion of the costs of the Improvement Area #1 Improvements through Assessments, it must adopt a resolution generally describing the Improvement Area #1 Improvements and the land within Improvement Area #1 of the District to be subject to Assessments to pay the cost therefor. The City has caused the Assessment Roll to be prepared, which shows the land within Improvement Area #1 of the District to be assessed, the amount of the benefit to and the Assessment against each lot or parcel of land, and the number of Annual Installments in which the Assessment is divided. The Assessment Roll was filed with the City Secretary and made available for public inspection. Statutory notice was given to the owners of the property to be assessed and a public hearing was conducted to hear testimony from affected property owners as to the propriety and advisability of undertaking the Improvement Area #1 Improvements and funding a portion of the same with Assessments. The City levied the Assessments and adopted the Assessment Ordinance on September 13, 2022. After adoption of the Assessment Ordinance and recordation thereof in the real property records of Collin 28 County, the Assessments became legal, valid, and binding liens upon the property against which the Assessments were made. Under the PID Act, the Actual Costs of the Improvement Area #1 Improvements may be assessed by the City against the assessable property in Improvement Area #1 of the District so long as the special benefit conferred upon the Assessed Property by the Improvement Area #1 Improvements equals or exceeds the Assessments. The costs of the Improvement Area #1 Improvements may be assessed using any methodology that results in the imposition of equal shares of cost on Assessed Property similarly benefited. The allocation of benefits and assessments to the benefitted land within the District, including land in Improvement Area #1, is set forth in the Service and Assessment Plan, which should be read in its entirety. See “APPENDIX C – Service and Assessment Plan.” Assessment Methodology The Service and Assessment Plan describes the special benefit to be received by each parcel of assessable property as a result of the Improvement Area #1 Improvements, provides the basis and justification for the determination that such special benefit exceeds the Assessments being levied, and establishes the methodology by which the City allocates the special benefit of the Improvement Area #1 Improvements to parcels in a manner that results in equal shares of costs being apportioned to parcels similarly benefited. As described in the Service and Assessment Plan, a portion of the costs of the Improvement Area #1 Improvements are being funded with proceeds of the Bonds, which are payable from Pledged Revenues, including Assessment Revenues, and other assets comprising the Trust Estate. As set forth in the Service and Assessment Plan, the City Council has determined that the Actual Costs associated with the Improvement Area #1 Improvements will be allocated to the Assessed Property by spreading the entire Assessment across all Assessed Property within Improvement Area #1 of the District based on the ratio of Estimated Buildout Value (as defined in the Service and Assessment Plan) of each Lot Type in Improvement Area #1 to the Estimated Buildout Value of all Assessed Property within Improvement Area #1. The following table provides additional analysis with respect to assessment methodology, including the value to Assessment burden ratio per Lot Type, equivalent tax rate per Lot Type, and leverage per Lot Type related to the Assessments applicable to Improvement Area #1. The information in the tables was obtained from and calculated using information provided in the Service and Assessment Plan.

Source: P3Works, LLC and information presented in the Service and Assessment Plan For further explanation of the Assessment methodology, see “APPENDIX C – Service and Assessment Plan.” 29 The City has determined that the foregoing method of allocation will result in the imposition of equal shares of the Assessments on parcels similarly situated within Improvement Area #1 of the District. The Assessments and interest thereon are expected to be paid in Annual Installments as described above. The determination by the City of the assessment methodology set forth in the Service and Assessment Plan is the result of the discretionary exercise by the City Council of its legislative authority and governmental powers and is conclusive and binding on the Developer and all future owners and developers within the District. See “APPENDIX C – Service and Assessment Plan.” Collection and Enforcement of Assessment Amounts Under the PID Act, the Annual Installments may be collected in the same manner and at the same time as ad valorem taxes of the City. The Assessments may be enforced by the City in the same manner that an ad valorem tax lien against real property is enforced. Delinquent installments of the Assessments incur interest, penalties, and attorney’s fees in the same manner as delinquent ad valorem taxes. Under the PID Act, the Assessment Lien is a first and prior lien against the property assessed, superior to all other liens and claims except liens or claims for State, county, school district, or municipality ad valorem taxes. See “BONDHOLDERS’ RISKS – Assessment Limitations.” In the Indenture, the City covenants to collect, or cause to be collected, Assessments as provided in the Assessment Ordinance. No less frequently than annually, City staff or a designee of the City shall prepare, and the City Council shall approve, an Annual Service Plan Update to allow for the billing and collection of Annual Installments. Each Annual Service Plan Update shall include an updated Assessment Roll and a calculation of the Annual Installment for each Parcel. Annual Collection Costs shall be allocated among all Parcels in proportion to the amount of the Annual Installments for the Parcels. In the Indenture, the City covenants, agrees, and warrants that, for so long as any Bonds are Outstanding it will take and pursue all actions permissible under Applicable Laws to cause the Assessments to be collected and the liens thereof enforced continuously, in the manner and to the maximum extent permitted by Applicable Laws, and, to the extent permitted by Applicable Laws, to cause no reduction, abatement, or exemption in the Assessments. To the extent permitted by law, notice of the Annual Installments will be sent by, or on behalf of the City, to the affected property owners on the same statement or such other mechanism that is used by the City, so that such Annual Installments are collected simultaneously with ad 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 City. The City will determine or cause to be determined, no later than February 15 of each year, whether or not any Annual Installment is delinquent and, if such delinquencies exist, the City will order and cause to be commenced as soon as practicable any and all appropriate and legally permissible actions to obtain such Annual Installment, and any delinquent charges and interest thereon, including diligently prosecuting an action in district court to foreclose the currently delinquent Annual Installment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the City shall not be required under any circumstances to purchase or make payment for the purchase of the delinquent Assessment or the corresponding Assessed Property. The City will implement the basic timeline and procedures for Assessment collections and pursuit of delinquencies set forth in Exhibit C to the Continuing Disclosure Agreement of Issuer set forth in APPENDIX E-1 and to comply therewith to the extent that the City reasonably determines that such compliance is the most appropriate timeline and procedures for enforcing the payment of delinquent Assessments. The City shall not be required under any circumstances to expend any funds for Delinquent Collection Costs in connection with its covenants and agreements under the Indenture or otherwise other than funds on deposit in the Administrative Fund. 30 Annual Installments will be paid to the City or its agent. Annual Installments are due on October 1 of each year, and become delinquent on February 1 of the following year. In the event Assessments are not timely paid, there are penalties and interest as set forth below: Date Payment Received Cumulative Penalty Cumulative Interest Total February 6%1%7% March 7%2%9% April 8%3%11% May 9%4%13% June 10%5%15% July 12%6%18% After July, the penalty remains at 12%, and interest accrues at the rate of 1% each month. In addition, if an account is delinquent in July, a 20% attorney’s collection fee may be added to the total penalty and interest charge. In general, property subject to lien may be sold, in whole or in parcels, pursuant to court order to collect the amounts due. An automatic stay by creditors or other entities, including governmental units, could prevent governmental units from foreclosing on property and prevents liens for post-petition taxes from attaching to property and obtaining secured creditor status unless, in either case, an order lifting the stay is obtained from the bankruptcy court. In most cases, post-petition Assessments are paid as an administrative expense of the estate in bankruptcy or by order of the bankruptcy court. Assessment Amounts Assessment Amounts. The maximum amounts of the Assessments will be established by the methodology described in the Service and Assessment Plan. The Assessment Roll sets forth for each year the Annual Installment for each Assessed Property consisting of the annual payment allocable to the Bonds and the Improvement Area #1 Improvements for each Assessed Property, which amount includes (i) the Additional Interest and (ii) the annual payment allocable to Annual Collection Costs. The Annual Installments for the Assessments may not exceed the amounts shown on the Assessment Roll. The Assessments will be levied against the parcels comprising the Assessed Property as indicated on the Assessment Roll. See “APPENDIX C – Service and Assessment Plan” and “APPENDIX G – Reimbursement Agreement.” The Annual Installments shown on the Assessment Roll will be reduced to equal the actual costs of repaying the Bonds (which amount will include Additional Interest) and actual Annual Collection Costs (as provided for in the definition of such term), taking into consideration any other available funds for these costs, such as interest income on account balances. If the debt service on issued and Outstanding Bonds is reduced as the result of a refunding of the Bonds, the Prepayment of the Assessments, or the redemption of the Bonds, then there would be a corresponding reduction in the Assessments and the Annual Installments. See “APPENDIX C – Service and Assessment Plan.” In such case, the reduced Assessment and Annual Installment, as shown on the Assessment Roll for Improvement Area #1, shall be reflected in the next Annual Service Plan Update and approved by City Council. Method of Apportionment of Assessments. For purposes of the Service and Assessment Plan, the City Council has determined that the Assessments shall be initially allocated to the Parcels consisting of the Assessed Property based on the ratio of the Estimated Buildout Value of each Parcel in Improvement Area #1 to the Estimated Buildout Value of all Parcels in Improvement Area #1. Division Prior to Recording of Subdivision Plat. Upon the division of any Assessed Property prior to the recording of a subdivision plat, the Administrator shall reallocate the Assessment for the Assessed Property prior to the division among the newly divided Assessed Properties according to the following formula: A = B x (C ÷ D) 31 Where the terms have the following meanings: A = the Assessment for the newly divided Assessed Property B = the Assessment for the Assessed Property prior to division C = the Estimated Buildout Value of the newly divided Assessed Property D = the sum of the Estimated Buildout Value for all of the newly divided Assessed Properties The calculation of the Assessment of an Assessed Property shall be performed by the Administrator and shall be based on the Estimated Buildout Value of that Assessed Property, as relying on information from homebuilders, market studies, appraisals, official public records of the County, and any other relevant information regarding the Assessed Property. The calculation as confirmed by the City Council shall be conclusive and binding. The sum of the Assessments for all newly divided Assessed Properties shall equal the Assessment for the Assessed Property prior to subdivision. The calculation shall be made separately for each newly divided Assessed Property. The reallocation of an Assessment for an Assessed Property that is a homestead under Texas law may not exceed the Assessment prior to the reallocation. Any reallocation shall be reflected in the next Annual Service Plan Update and approved by the City Council. Upon Subdivision by a Recorded Subdivision Plat. Upon the subdivision of any Assessed Property based on a recorded subdivision plat, the Administrator shall reallocate the Assessment for the Assessed Property prior to the subdivision among the new subdivided Lots based on Estimated Buildout Value according to the following formula: A = [B x (C ÷ D)]/E Where the terms have the following meanings: A = the Assessment for the newly subdivided Lot B = the Assessment for the Parcel prior to subdivision C = the sum of the Estimated Buildout Value of all newly subdivided Lots of the same Lot Type D = the sum of the Estimated Buildout Value for all of the newly subdivided Lots excluding Non-Benefitted Property E= the number of newly subdivided Lots of the same Lot Type Prior to the recording of a subdivision plat, the Developer shall provide the City an Estimated Buildout Value for each Lot to be created after recording the subdivision plat as of the date the subdivision plat is anticipated to be recorded. The calculation of the Assessment for a Lot shall be performed by the Administrator and confirmed by the City Council based on Estimated Buildout Value information provided by the Developer, homebuilders, third party consultants, and/or the official public records of the County regarding the Lot. The calculation as confirmed by the City Council shall be conclusive and binding. The sum of the Assessments for all newly subdivided Lots shall not exceed the Assessment for the portion of the Assessed Property subdivided prior to subdivision. The calculation shall be made separately for each newly subdivided Assessed Property. The reallocation of an Assessment for an 32 Assessed Property that is a homestead under Texas law may not exceed the Assessment prior to the reallocation. Any reallocation pursuant to this section shall be reflected in the next Annual Service Plan Update and approved by the City Council. Upon Consolidation. If two or more Lots or Parcels are consolidated into a single Parcel or Lot, the Administrator shall allocate the Assessments against the Lots or Parcels before the consolidation to the consolidated Lot or Parcel, which allocation shall be reflected in the next Annual Service Plan Update and approved by the City Council. The Assessment for any resulting Lot may not exceed the Maximum Assessment for the applicable Lot Type and compliance may require a mandatory prepayment of Assessments. Maximum Assessment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Service and Assessment Plan establishes a “Maximum Assessment” for each Lot Type in Improvement Area #1 of the District, which Maximum Assessment is currently calculated at $41,465.16* for the 40’ lots, and $46,286.69* for the 50’ lots. See “APPENDIX C –Service and Assessment Plan.” Prior to the City approving a final subdivision plat, the Administrator will certify that such plat will not result in the Assessment per Lot for any Lot Type exceeding the Maximum Assessment. If the Administrator determines that the resulting Assessment per Lot for any Lot Type will exceed the Maximum Assessment, then (i) the Assessment applicable to each Lot Type shall each be reduced to the Maximum Assessment, and (ii) the person or entity filing the plat shall pay, as a mandatory prepayment of the Assessment, to the City the amount the Assessment was reduced, plus Prepayment Costs and Delinquent Collection Costs, prior to the City approving the final plat. In addition, if the Assessed Property is transferred to a person or entity that is exempt from payment of the Assessment, the owner transferring the Assessed Property shall pay to the City the full amount of the Assessment, plus Prepayment Costs and Delinquent Collection Costs, prior to the transfer. If the owner of the Assessed Property causes the Assessed Property to become Non-Benefited Property, the owner causing the change in status shall pay to the City the full amount of the Assessment, plus Prepayment Costs and Delinquent Collection Costs, prior to the change in status. For further information about apportionment of the Assessments, See “APPENDIX B – Form of Service and Assessment Plan.” TIRZ No. 4 Annual Credit Amount. Pursuant to the Service and Assessment Plan, and the TIRZ No. 4 Ordinance, the City agreed to use the Residential Increment generated from each Assessed Property to offset a portion of such Parcel’s Assessment related to the Improvement Area #1 Improvements. The Annual Installment of the Assessments for each Parcel within Improvement Area #1 will be calculated by taking into consideration any TIRZ No. 4 Annual Credit Amount applicable to such Parcel, as described under “SECURITY FOR THE BONDS – Amount of Assessments May be Reduced by TIRZ No. 4 Annual Credit Amount” and in “APPENDIX C – Service and Assessment Plan.” The TIRZ Contribution is generated only from ad valorem taxes levied and collected by the City on the Captured Taxable Value on the applicable Parcel in any year. Consequently, the TIRZ Contribution is generated only if the appraised value of real property on such Parcel in any year is greater than the TIRZ Base Value. See “APPENDIX C – Service and Assessment Plan.” TIRZ NO. 4 REVENUES ARE NOT PLEDGED AS SECURITY FOR THE BONDS. Prepayment of Assessments Pursuant to the PID Act and the Indenture, the owner of any Assessed Property may voluntarily prepay (a “Prepayment”), at any time, all or part of an Assessment levied against such owner’s Assessed Property, together with accrued interest to the date of payment. Upon receipt of such Prepayment, such amounts will be applied towards the redemption or payment of the Bonds. Amounts received at the time of a Prepayment which represent a payment of principal, interest, or penalties on a delinquent installment of an Assessment are not to be considered a Prepayment, but rather are to be treated as payment of regularly scheduled Assessments. * Preliminary, subject to change. 33 Priority of Lien The Assessments or any reassessment, the expense of collection, and reasonable attorney’s fees, if incurred, constitute a first and prior lien against the property assessed, superior to all other liens and claims except liens or claims for the State, county, school district, or municipality ad valorem taxes, and are a personal liability of and charge against the owners of the property regardless of whether the owners are named. The lien is effective from the date of the Assessment Ordinance until the Assessment is paid, and may be enforced by the City in the same manner as an ad valorem tax levied against real property may be enforced by the City. The owner of any property assessed may pay the entire Assessment levied against any lot or parcel, together with accrued interest to the date of payment, at any time. Foreclosure Proceedings In the event of delinquency in the payment of any Annual Installment, except for unpaid Assessments on homestead property (unless the lien associated with the assessment attached prior to the date the property became a homestead), the City is empowered to order institution of an action in state district court to foreclose the lien of such delinquent Annual Installment. In such action the real property subject to the delinquent Annual Installments may be sold at judicial foreclosure sale for the amount of such delinquent Annual Installments, plus penalties and interest. Any sale of property for nonpayment of an installment or installments of an Assessment will be subject to the lien established for remaining unpaid installments of the Assessment 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 installments of the Assessments against such property as they become due and payable. Judicial foreclosure proceedings are not mandatory. In the event a foreclosure is necessary, there could be a delay in payments to owners of the Bonds pending prosecution of the foreclosure proceedings and receipt by the City of the proceeds of the foreclosure sale. It is possible that no bid would be received at the foreclosure sale, and in such event there could be an additional delay in payment of the principal of and interest on Bonds or such payment may not be made in full. The City is not required under any circumstance to purchase the property or to pay the delinquent Assessment on the corresponding Assessed Parcel. In the Indenture, the City covenants to take and pursue all actions permissible under Applicable Laws to cause the Assessments to be collected and the liens thereof enforced continuously, in the manner and to the maximum extent permitted by Applicable Laws, and to cause no reduction, abatement, or exemption in the Assessments, provided that the City is not required to expend any funds for collection and enforcement of Assessments other than funds on deposit in the Administrative Fund. Pursuant to the Indenture, Foreclosure Proceeds (excluding Delinquent Collection Costs) constitute Pledged Revenues to be deposited into the Pledged Revenue Fund upon receipt by the City and distributed in accordance with the Indenture. See “APPENDIX B – Form of Indenture.” See also “APPENDIX E-1 – Form of Disclosure Agreement of Issuer” for a description of the expected timing of certain events with respect to collection of the delinquent Assessments. In the Indenture, the City creates the Delinquency and Prepayment Reserve Account under the Reserve Fund and will fund such account as provided in the Indenture. The City will not be obligated to fund foreclosure proceedings out of any funds other than in the Administrative Fund. If funds in the Administrative Fund are insufficient to pay foreclosure costs, the owners of the Bonds may be required to pay amounts necessary to continue foreclosure proceedings. See “SECURITY FOR THE BONDS – Reserve Fund (Reserve Account and Delinquency and Prepayment Reserve Account),” “APPENDIX B – Form of Indenture” and “APPENDIX C – Service and Assessment Plan.” THE REMAINDER OF THIS PAGE IS LEFT BLANK INTENTIONALLY. 34 THE CITY Background The City is located in north central Collin County, 40 miles north of Dallas and 12 miles northwest of the City of McKinney. Access to the City is provided by State Highway 121, State Highway 5, US-75, and Farm Road 455. The City covers approximately 15 square miles. Some of the services that the City provides are public safety (police and fire protection), streets, water and sanitary sewer utilities, planning and zoning, and general administrative services. The 2020 Census population for the City was 16,896, while the current estimated population is 23,558. City Government The City is a political subdivision and municipal corporation of the State, duly organized and existing under the laws of the State, including the City’s Home Rule Charter. The City was incorporated in 1913, and first adopted its Home Rule Charter on May 7, 2005. The City operates under a Council/Manager form of government with a City Council comprised of the Mayor and six Councilmembers elected for staggered three-year terms. The City Manager is the Chief Administrative Officer for the City. The current members of the City Council and principal administrators of the City are listed on page ii hereof. For more information regarding the City and surrounding areas, see “APPENDIX A – General Information Regarding the City and Surrounding Areas.” Water and Wastewater The City will provide both water and wastewater service to the District. The City is currently served by ground water, through seven water wells located at five different sites. These seven wells produce a total of 1,520 gallons per minute. The City has recently completed the construction of two additional wells, which came online at the end of September 2022, thereby increasing the City’s total production to approximately 4.8 million gallons per day. The City has a total elevated storage capacity of 1,500,000 gallons of water and five ground storage tanks with total storage capacity of 2,500,000 gallons. The City recently partnered with the Greater Texoma Utility Authority (“GTUA”) and three neighboring small cities to bring a large surface water transmission line through the City. The GTUA line provides a connection to the North Texas Municipal Water District’s (“NTMWD”) water distribution system, providing the City with access to treated surface water. This surface water line is part of the City’s long term water supply plan. Currently the City has a maximum allowable take of 5,040 gpm from the GTUA connection, providing the City with a maximum peak flow of treated water supply of 6,706 gpm. Both GTUA and the City are working on capital projects which will increase the maximum treated water supply and storage. The City’s sanitary sewer system consists of seven lift stations and one wastewater treatment facility at the John R. Geren (Slayter Creek) Wastewater Treatment Plant. In addition, the City has two large diameter sewer transmission lines that transport wastewater directly into the NTMWD’s wastewater system to the South (Wilson Creek plant). The City’s currently wastewater treatment facility is located on Slayter Creek, just north of the confluence of Slayter Creek and Throckmorton Creek. The total treatment capacity of the City’s facility is approximately 0.50 million gallons per day. A portion of the NTMWD regional sewer is located along Throckmorton Creek, in the south-central part of the City and the other is located near Clemmons Creek in the southeastern part of the City. The City’s wastewater treatment plant is currently near capacity. The transmission lines still have significant capacity remaining. The City recently completed the Slayter Creek Interceptor Sewer project which now conveys wastewater flows in excess of the Slayter Creek Wastewater Treatment capacity to the NTMWD regional wastewater system. 35 In September 2022, the City issued approximately $65 million in general obligation debt, which together with approximately $17 million in impact fees will be used to fund construction of a new Hurricane Creek Regional Wastewater Treatment Plant. This new plant will significantly expand the City’s ability to collect and treat wastewater as required for new development west of US 75. Initially, the plant will have a capacity to treat 4 million gallons per day of wastewater, with plans to gradually expand the plant’s capacity up to 16 million gallons per day. The City will utilize the new plant to treat sewage for its own residents, as well as provide wholesale sewage treatment for the City of Van Alstyne, the City of Weston, and for various water districts located in the area. Additionally, the City is substantially complete with construction of a new Hurricane Creek sewer transmission main to transport wastewater throughout the new developments along the west side of US 75. THE DISTRICT General The PID Act authorizes municipalities, such as the City, to create public improvement districts within their boundaries or extraterritorial jurisdiction, and to impose assessments within the public improvement district to pay for certain improvements. The District was created by Resolution No. 2022-04-1140 of the City adopted on April 12, 2022 (the “Creation Resolution”), for the purpose of undertaking and financing the cost of certain public improvements within the District, including the Improvement Area #1 Improvements, authorized by the PID Act and approved by the City Council that confer a special benefit on the District property being developed. The District is not a separate political subdivision of the State and is governed by the City Council. A map of the property within the District is included on page v hereof. Powers and Authority of the City Pursuant to the PID Act, the City may establish and create the District and undertake, or reimburse a developer for the costs of, improvement projects that confer a special benefit on property located within the District, whether located within the City limits or the City’s extraterritorial jurisdiction. The PID Act provides that the City may levy and collect Assessments on property in the District, or portions thereof, payable in periodic installments based on the benefit conferred by an improvement project to pay all or part of its cost. Pursuant to the PID Act and the Creation Resolution, the City has the power to undertake, or reimburse a developer for the costs of, the financing, acquisition, construction, or improvement of the Improvement Area #1 Improvements.

Private Improvements. In addition to the Improvement Area #1 Improvements, the Developer plans to construct over a period of approximately three and a half years the Entertainment Commercial Complex, the Laguna, and other similar attractions (collectively, the “Private Improvements”) at an approximate cost of $30,000,000. The costs of the Private Improvements and the HOA will be paid entirely by the Developer, without reimbursement by the City, from proceeds of the Development Loan. The Private Improvements will be owned, operated, and maintained by Laguna Azure LLC, a Wyoming limited liability company, an affiliate of the Developer and the Homebuilder. THE DEVELOPMENT The following information has been provided by the Developer. Certain of the following information is beyond the direct knowledge of the City, the City’s Financial Advisor, and the Underwriter, and none of the City, the City’s Financial Advisor, or the Underwriter have any way of guaranteeing the accuracy of such information. Development Plan The Developer owns all of the Property and intends to develop it in four phases over a period of approximately five years as a master-planned community to include approximately 1,233 single-family residential lots of 40’ and 50’ front footage, approximately 600 multi-family residential units, the Entertainment Commercial Complex, the Laguna, and other similar attractions (collectively, the “Development”). See the maps and concept plan for the District and the Development on pages iv-vii. The single-family residential lots will be located within the District. The multi-family units, commercial and entertainment space, and the Laguna will be located on the Property east of Ferguson Parkway between Rosamond Parkway and Improvement Area #1. The boundaries of the District, Improvement Area #1 (Phases 1A, 1B, and 1C), and Phases 2-4 are shown on page v. A conceptual plan of the Laguna is shown on page vi. The Developer began with the construction of the Laguna and the Improvement Area #1 Improvements. Improvement Area #1 consists of approximately 97.716 acres and 457 single-family residential lots. Construction of the Improvement Area #1 Improvements began in October 2021. The Improvement Area #1 Improvements in the portion of Improvement Area #1 designated as “Phase 1A,” consisting of 190 lots, are complete. The Improvement Area #1 Improvements in the portion of Improvement Area #1 designated as “Phase 1B,” consisting of 205 lots, and “Phase 1C,” consisting of 62 lots, are expected to be complete in September 2023. See “THE IMPROVEMENT AREA #1 IMPROVEMENTS.” Following development of the Improvement Area #1 Improvements, the Developer intends to, over an approximately four-year period, undertake the development of public improvements necessary to serve Phases 2-4 of the Development. See “THE DEVELOPMENT – Development Plan.” The boundaries of the District, Improvement Area #1 (Phases 1A, 1B, and 1C), and Phases 2-4 are shown on page v. 38 Expected Build-Out and Home Prices in the Development The Developer expects to complete the Development in four phases over a five-year period. The following tables reflect the Developer’s expected build-out and absorption schedules for lots in the District.

The Homebuilder began purchasing Lots upon substantial completion of the Phase 1A portion of Improvement Area #1. As of September 1, 2023, the Homebuilder has purchased 150 Lots. The Developer expects that the Homebuilder will continue to purchase Lots on an accelerated schedule from that required by the Lot Purchase Contract. Status of Construction of Laguna Excavation and mass grading for the Laguna began in April 2023. Pre-pipe work is complete. The site civil engineering plans and the plat for the Laguna have been approved. The Developer is negotiating contracts with the pipe contractor and the civil engineer. The building permit package for the Laguna and the Entertainment Commercial Complex has been submitted to the City. Future Improvement Area Bonds The Developer expects to request the City to issue Future Improvement Area Bonds to finance the costs of the public improvements benefitting Phases 2-4 of the Development. The estimated costs of such improvements will be determined as development progresses, and the Service and Assessment Plan will be updated accordingly. Such Future Improvement Area Bonds will be secured by separate assessments levied pursuant to the PID Act on assessable property within Phases 2-4, as applicable. The Developer anticipates that Future Improvement Area Bonds will be issued over a five-year period. Development Agreement Pursuant to the Development Agreement, the Developer has the right to construct public improvements for the District, including the Improvement Area #1 Improvements, according to certain rules and regulations of the City, and to be reimbursed for a portion of the costs of such construction through the proceeds of the Assessments and/or the Bonds. The Development Agreement provides certain requirements to be met for the issuance of the Bonds and any additional bonds issued for the payment of additional Authorized Improvements (defined in the Development Agreement and the PID Act) (collectively, “PID Bonds”), including (i) the total amount of PID Bonds may not exceed $58,000,000, not including refunding bonds; (ii) the final maturity of each series of PID Bonds may not occur later than 30 years from the date of issuance of such PID Bonds; (iii) the maximum equivalent tax rate, including the PID Assessments associated with the PID Bonds and all overlapping taxing jurisdictions, cannot exceed $0.9348 per $100 taxable assessed valuation without prior written consent of the City; and (iv) the ratio of the appraised value of the property being financed to the par amount of the PID Bonds proposed to be issued with respect to such property must be at least 2:1, unless a lower ratio is approved by the City. In the Development Agreement, the City agreed to create the TIRZ No. 4 and dedicate the Residential Increment for a period of up to 30 years from the date of the creation of TIRZ No. 4 to reduce the amount of the Assessments levied on property within TIRZ No. 4 to pay the costs of public improvements allowable under the TIRZ Act. See “SECURITY FOR THE BONDS – Amount of Assessments May be Reduced by TIRZ No. 4 Annual Credit Amount.” In the Development Agreement, the City also agreed to dedicate TIRZ No. 4 Revenues generated on the commercial and multi-family portions of the Property (which are outside of the District) in an amount equal to 70% of the City’s tax rate levied and collected on the captured appraised value of such tracts in each year (the “Commercial Increment”). The City agreed to dedicate the Commercial Increment for a period of up to 30 years 40 from the date of the creation of TIRZ No. 4 to fund the costs of public infrastructure on such tracts and/or costs of the Private Improvements allowable under the TIRZ Act. In addition, the Development Agreement obligates the Developer to [Developer’s Counsel to summarize these bullets and/or other items, as applicable]: •Dedication of 9.4-acre tract to Anna ISD and corresponding credit for park dedication fees; •Fund and construct all water, sanitary sewer, and road improvements required to serve the District not funded by the City pursuant to the Development Agreement; •Construct 2 eastern lanes of Ferguson Parkway in phases from South border of District to Rosamond Parkway; •Enter into 380 Agreement regarding 65/35 split of 1.25% City sales and use tax proceeds on construction materials; •PID Fee of $3,400/residential lot. 50%/lot at closing of PID bonds. 50% total used as Laguna Completion Escrow •CO for Laguna by 4/12/25 (after 2 optional 6-month extensions) or lose Laguna Completion Escrow and TIRZ funding during delay until CO is issued. •Private Improvements, including Laguna, Entertainment Commercial Building, entertainment district, with Laguna + Restaurant + entertainment district to cost at least $25 million •$0.50 per public entry fee into Laguna payable to Anna EDC •Mandatory Prepayment by Developer or owner if within 18 months of levy aggregate buildout TAV or projected home price/Lot Type isn’t at least 93% of that included in SAP In addition, the Development Agreement obligates the City to: •Construct Rosamond Parkway from US 75 to high school by 10/18/22 •Fee credits THE REMAINDER OF THIS PAGE IS LEFT BLANK INTENTIONALLY. 41 Photographs of Improvement Area #1 and Laguna Improvement Area #1 (Phase 1A) looking North from near the intersection of Ferguson Pkwy and Hackberry Dr View from Northeast corner of Improvement Area #1 (Phase 1B) looking South 42 Laguna site Zoning/Permitting The District is currently zoned as a planned development district pursuant to Ordinance No. 887-2020 adopted by the City Council on December 8, 2020 (the “PDD Ordinance”). The PDD Ordinance allows certain restricted commercial, single-family residential, and single-family residential zero lot line uses and establishes guidelines pertaining to purpose, height, area, setbacks, aesthetics, landscaping, and use. Because the District lies within the city limits of the City, the City’s zoning and subdivision regulations control the aspects of development not specifically set forth in the PDD Ordinance or the Development Agreement. Education Students in the District will attend schools in the Anna Independent School District (“AISD”). AISD serves the City and other portions of Collin County. AISD enrolls over 4,500 students in one high school, a middle school, four elementary schools, and a special programs center. Students in the District are expected to attend Bryant Elementary School (approximately 0.5 miles north of the District), Anna Middle School (approximately 1 mile east of the District), and Anna High School (adjacent to the District). GreatSchools.org currently rates Bryant Elementary School 8 out of 10, Anna Middle School 5 out of 10, and Anna High School 4 out of 10. According to the Texas Education Agency annual school report cards, Bryant Elementary School and Anna Middle School were rated “C”, and Anna High School was rated “B” for the 2021- 2022 school year. (The categories for public school districts and public schools are A, B, C, D or F). Environmental A Phase One Environmental Site Assessments (the “Phase One ESA”) of all 341 acres owned by the Developer, including all real property within the District, was completed on November 15, 2020, by Environmental Property Investigations, Inc. (“EPI”). Based on the information presented in the Phase One ESA, EPI concluded that no recognized environmental conditions existed at the site that would require additional investigation. 43 According to the website for the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department, the whooping crane is a federally recognized endangered species and the rufa red knot, piping plover, and black rail are federally recognized threatened species in Collin County. The Developer is not aware of any endangered or threatened species located on District property. Traffic Impact Study Kelly & Associates (the “Traffic Engineer”) prepared a Technical Memorandum, dated August 16, 2021, regarding its “Traffic Impact Analysis – Proposed AnaCapri Laguna Azure Residential Development in Anna, Texas” (the “Report”). The Report concluded that at buildout, assumed to occur in 2026: •In order to achieve appropriate levels of service at Ferguson Parkway and W. White Parkway, an additional second eastbound and northbound left-turn lane and an additional third eastbound and westbound thru lane would be needed on Ferguson Parkway with a potential mitigation cost to AnaCapri of 36% of the costs. Alternative, mitigation can be achieved if site traffic chooses to access US 75 via Rosamond Parkway; and The Developer is following the Traffic Engineer’s recommendation to verify traffic impact data as the Development progresses and nears buildout to determine where mitigation becomes necessary. Based on City requirements, the Developer [is constructing/will construct] a deceleration lane on Ferguson Parkway northbound at the approach to Rosamond Parkway. Existing Mineral and Groundwater Rights, Easements and Other Third-Party Property Rights Third parties hold title to certain rights applicable to real property within and around the District (the “Mineral Owners”), including reservations of mineral rights and royalty interests and easements (collectively, the “Third-Party Rights”) pursuant to various instruments in the chain of title for various tracts of land within and immediately adjacent to the District. Some of these reservations of mineral rights include a waiver by the Mineral Owners of their right to enter onto the surface of the property to explore, develop, drill, produce or extract minerals within the District. If the waiver is applicable, such Mineral Owners may only develop such mineral interests by means of wells drilled on land outside of the property of the District. The Developer is not aware of any ongoing mineral rights development or exploration on or adjacent to the property within the District. The Developer is not aware of any interest in real property (including mineral rights) owned by the Mineral Owners adjacent to the District. Certain rules and regulations of the Texas Railroad Commission may also restrict the ability of the Mineral Owners to explore or develop the property due to well density, acreage, or location issues. Although the Developer does not expect the above-described Third-Party Rights, or the exercise of such rights or any other third-party real property rights in or around the District, to have a material adverse effect on the Development, the property within the District, or the ability of landowners within the District to pay Assessments, the Developer makes no guarantee as to such expectation. See “BONDHOLDERS’ RISKS – Exercise of Third- Party Property Rights.” 500-Year Flood Zone According to the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM), Community Panel Number 48085C0155J, effective June 2, 2009, all of the property within Improvement Area #1 of the District lies outside of the 500-year flood plain, referred to as Zone X. See “BONDHOLDERS’ RISKS – 500 Year Flood Plain and Severe Weather Events.” 44 Utilities Water and Wastewater. The City will provide both water and wastewater service to the District. The City’s water distribution system and wastewater collection and treatment system currently have sufficient capacity to provide water and wastewater service to the District. See “THE CITY – Water and Wastewater.” Other Utilities. The Developer expects additional utilities to be provided by: (1) Phone/Data – Nextlink and Grayson County Electric Company (“GCEC”) Telecom; (2) Electric – (GCEC); (3) Cable – Nextlink and GCEC Telecom; and (4) Natural Gas - Atmos Energy. THE DEVELOPER AND THE HOMEBUILDER The following information has been provided by the Developer. Certain of the following information is beyond the direct knowledge of the City, the City’s Financial Advisor, and the Underwriter, and none of the City, the City’s Financial Advisor, or the Underwriter have any way of guaranteeing the accuracy of such information. General In general, the activities of a developer in a development such as the District include purchasing the land, designing the subdivision, including the utilities and streets to be installed and any community facilities to be built, defining a marketing program and building schedule, securing necessary governmental approvals and permits for development, arranging for the construction of roads and the installation of utilities (including, in some cases, water, sewer, and drainage facilities, as well as telephone and electric service) and selling improved lots and commercial reserves, if any, to builders, developers, or other third parties. The relative success or failure of a developer to perform such activities within a development may have a material effect on the security of revenue bonds, such as the Bonds, issued by a municipality for a public improvement district. A developer is generally under no obligation to a public improvement district, such as the District, to develop the property which it owns in a development. Furthermore, there is no restriction on the developer’s right to sell any or all of the land which the developer owns within a development. In addition, a developer is ordinarily the major tax and assessment payer within a district during its development. Description of the Developer and the Homebuilder The Developer (AnaCapri Laguna Azure LLC) and the Homebuilder (Megatel AnaCapri, LLC) are, directly or indirectly, under the common ownership of the ZI Revocable Trust and the AI Revocable Trust. The ZI Revocable Trust is for the benefit of, among others, Armin Afzalipour, also known as Zach Ipour. Zach Ipour is the trustee of the ZI Revocable Trust.

The Sole Member of the MCI PIF II Fund is MCI Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“MCI Holdings”). The MCI PIF II Fund is managed by Megatel Capital Investments, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“MCI”). Aaron Ipour and Zach Ipour are the Co-Presidents of MCI Holdings and the Members and Co-Presidents of MCI. See “– Description of the Developer and the Homebuilder.” MCI is the capital markets division of the Megatel group of companies. MCI primarily specializes in providing growth capital to Megatel through affiliated lending programs such as the MCI PIF II Fund. As capital becomes available, it is loaned to borrowers such as the Developer. History and Financing of the District Acquisition Financings. The Developer purchased 111.666 acres within the Development on March 29, 2021. Such purchase was made with proceeds of a loan in the amount of $26,700,000, dated March 29, 2021, from the MCI PIF II Fund (the “Acquisition Loan”). The Developer purchased an 84-acre tract and a 95.444-acre tract in the Development on August 17, 2021, with proceeds the Acquisition Loan. See “– General Development Financing by Megatel.” The Acquisition Loan was made pursuant to a Construction Loan Agreement, dated March 29, 2021, as modified, between the Developer and the MCI PIF II Fund in the principal amount of $26,700,000. The maximum principal amount was subsequently increased to $38,438,400. Payments of interest at the rate or rates provided in the Acquisition Loan are due monthly, and the principal is due at maturity. The Acquisition Loan matures on October 1, 2023, unless extended. As of August 1, 2023, the Acquisition Loan was outstanding in the principal amount of $28,107,918.34. The Acquisition Loan is secured by separate deeds of trust and security agreements on the acreage purchased with the proceeds of each, including the real property within Improvement Area #1. The Acquisition Loan is subordinate to the Development Loan described below. Development Financing. In connection with the development of the land within the District, the Developer obtained a revolving loan (the “Development Loan”) on March 25, 2022, in the principal amount of $33,397,446.00 from TREZ Capital (2015) Corporation, a British Columbia corporation (the “Development Lender”). The Development Loan was subsequently modified effective March 31, 2023, and June 28, 2023, to revise some repayment terms. Payments of interest on the Development Loan at the rate provided therein are due monthly with principal payments due as follows: (i) $19,600,000.00 on September 30, 2023; (ii) $3,600,000.00 on December 31, 2023; (iii) 48 if the Developer exercises a six-month extension, $3,600,000.00 on March 31, 2024, and $3,600,000 on June 30, 2024; (iv) if the Developer exercises a second six-month extension, $3,600,000.00 on September 30, 2024, and $3,600,000 on December 31, 2024; and (v) in any case, the balance due at maturity. The Development Loan matures on March 25, 2024, or, if the Developer exercises only the first six-month extension, September 25, 2024, or if the Developer exercises the first and the second six-month extensions, March 25, 2025. As of August 1, 2023, the Development Loan was outstanding in the principal amount of $27,093,784.48. The Development Loan is secured by a first lien deed of trust and security agreement on all property within District and approximately 50 acres constituting the site for the Laguna and associated commercial and entertainment enterprises and multi-family housing. The Development Loan is superior in right to the Acquisition Loan. The Development Loan is personally guaranteed by Zach Ipour and Aaron Ipour. The PID Act provides that the Assessment Lien is a first and prior lien against an Assessed Parcel within the District and is superior to all other liens and claims except liens or claims for state, county, school district, or municipality ad valorem taxes. Additionally, at or prior to delivery of the Bonds, the MCI PIF II Fund and the Development Lender shall consent to and acknowledge the creation of the District, the levy of the Assessments, and the subordination of the liens securing the Development Loan and the Acquisition Loans to the assessment liens on property within Improvement Area #1 of the District securing payment of the Assessments. As a result, the lien on the property within Improvement Area #1 of the District securing the Assessments will have priority over the lien on the property within Improvement Area #1 of the District securing the Development Loan and the Acquisition Loans. Sufficiency of Developer’s Financing. According to the Developer, the Developer’s available financing sources are sufficient to fund the total budgeted costs of the Improvement Area #1 Improvements in the approximate amount of $20,152,720*. The Developer’s financing sources include the Development Loan, the net proceeds of the Bonds in the approximate amount of $16,449,502*, and the earnest money deposit of $5,000.

Integra Realty Resources – Dallas (the “Appraiser”), prepared an appraisal report for the City dated July 31, 2023, and effective as to Phase 1A as of July 25, 2023, and effective as to Phases 1B and 1C as of September 28, 2023, based upon a physical inspection of the District conducted on July 25, 2023 (the “Appraisal”). The Appraisal was prepared at the request of the City and the Underwriter. The description herein of the Appraisal is intended to be a brief summary only of the Appraisal as it relates to Improvement Area #1 of the District. The Appraisal is attached hereto as APPENDIX G and should be read in its entirety. The conclusions reached in the Appraisal are subject to certain assumptions, hypothetical conditions, and qualifications, which are set forth therein. See “APPENDIX G – Appraisal.” Value Estimates. The Appraiser estimated the “as-is” market value of the fee simple interests of the Assessed Parcels in Phase 1A of Improvement Area #1 of the District. The Appraiser estimated the “prospective market value as completed” of the fee simple interest in various tracts of land comprising Phases 1B and 1C of Improvement Area #1 of the District under the hypothetical condition that the Improvement Area #1 Improvements in Phases 1B and 1C are completed. See “THE IMPROVEMENT AREA #1 IMPROVEMENTS.” The Appraisal does not reflect the as-is condition of Phases 1B and 1C of Improvement Area #1 of the District as the Improvement Area #1 Improvements in Phases 1B and 1C had not been completed at the time of the report. Moreover, the Appraisal does not reflect the value of Improvement Area #1 of the District as if sold to a single purchaser in a single transaction. The Appraisal provides the fee simple estate values for Phases 1A, 1B, and 1C of Improvement Area #1 of the District. See “APPENDIX G – Appraisal.” The as is value estimate for the assessable property within Phase 1A of Improvement Area #1 of the District using the methodologies described in the Appraisal and subject to the limiting conditions and assumptions set forth in the Appraisal, as of July 25, 2023, is $15,600,000. The prospective value estimate for the assessable property within Phase 1B of Improvement Area #1 of the District using the methodologies described in the Appraisal and subject to the limiting conditions and assumptions set forth in the Appraisal, as of September 28, 2023, is $15,700,000. The value estimate for the assessable property within Phase 1C of Improvement Area #1 of the District using the methodologies described in the Appraisal and subject to the limiting conditions and assumptions set forth in the Appraisal, as of September 28, 2023, is $4,475,000. None of the City, the Developer, the Financial Advisor, or the Underwriter makes any representation as to the accuracy, completeness assumptions or information contained in the Appraisal. The assumptions and qualifications with respect to the Appraisal are contained therein. There can be no assurance that any such assumptions will be realized and the City, the Developer and the Underwriter make no representation as to the reasonableness of such assumptions. Prospective investors should read the complete Appraisal in order to make an informed decision regarding any contemplated purchase of the Bonds. The complete Appraisal is attached as APPENDIX G. BONDHOLDERS’ RISKS Before purchasing any of the Bonds, prospective investors and their professional advisors should carefully consider all of the risk factors described below which may create possibilities wherein interest may not be paid when due or that the Bonds may not be paid at maturity or otherwise as scheduled, or, if paid, without premium, if applicable. The following risk factors (which are not intended to be an exhaustive listing of all possible risks associated with an investment in the Bonds) should be carefully considered prior to purchasing any of the Bonds. Moreover, the order of presentation of the risks summarized below does not necessarily reflect the significance of such investment risks. 51 General THE BONDS ARE SPECIAL, LIMITED OBLIGATIONS OF THE CITY PAYABLE SOLELY FROM THE PLEDGED REVENUES AND OTHER FUNDS COMPRISING THE TRUST ESTATE, AS AND TO THE EXTENT PROVIDED IN THE INDENTURE. THE BONDS DO NOT GIVE RISE TO A CHARGE AGAINST THE GENERAL CREDIT OR TAXING POWER OF THE CITY AND ARE PAYABLE SOLELY FROM THE SOURCES IDENTIFIED IN THE INDENTURE. THE OWNERS OF THE BONDS SHALL NEVER HAVE THE RIGHT TO DEMAND PAYMENT THEREOF OUT OF MONEY RAISED OR TO BE RAISED BY TAXATION, OR OUT OF ANY FUNDS OF THE CITY OTHER THAN THE PLEDGED REVENUES AND OTHER ASSETS OF THE TRUST ESTATE, AS AND TO THE EXTENT PROVIDED IN THE INDENTURE. NO OWNER OF THE BONDS SHALL HAVE THE RIGHT TO DEMAND ANY EXERCISE OF THE CITY’S TAXING POWER TO PAY THE PRINCIPAL OF THE BONDS OR THE INTEREST OR REDEMPTION PREMIUM, IF ANY, THEREON. THE CITY SHALL HAVE NO LEGAL OR MORAL OBLIGATION TO PAY THE BONDS OUT OF ANY FUNDS OF THE CITY OTHER THAN THE PLEDGED REVENUES AND OTHER FUNDS COMPRISING THE TRUST ESTATE. The ability of the City to pay debt service on the Bonds as due is subject to various factors that are beyond the City’s control. These factors include, among others, (a) the ability or willingness of property owners within Improvement Area #1 of the District to pay Assessments levied by the City, (b) cash flow delays associated with the institution of foreclosure and enforcement proceedings against property within Improvement Area #1 of the District, (c) general and local economic conditions which may impact real property values, the ability to liquidate real property holdings and the overall value of real property development projects, and (d) general economic conditions which may impact the general ability to market and sell the lots within Improvement Area #1 of the District, it being understood that poor economic conditions within the City, State, and region may slow the assumed pace of sales of such lots. The rate of development of the property in Improvement Area #1 of the District is directly related to the vitality of the residential housing industry. In the event that the sale of the lands within Improvement Area #1 of the District should proceed more slowly than expected and the Developer is unable to pay the Assessments, only the value of the lands, with improvements, will be available for payment of the debt service on the Bonds, and such value can only be realized through the foreclosure or expeditious liquidation of the lands within Improvement Area #1 of the District. There is no assurance that the value of such lands will be sufficient for that purpose and the expeditious liquidation of real property through foreclosure or similar means is generally considered to yield sales proceeds in a lesser sum than might otherwise be received through the orderly marketing of such real property. The Underwriter is not obligated to make a market in or repurchase any of the Bonds, and no representation is made by the Underwriter, the City, or the City’s Financial Advisor that a market for the Bonds will develop and be maintained in the future. If a market does develop, no assurance can be given regarding future price maintenance of the Bonds. The City has not applied for or received a rating on the Bonds. The absence of a rating could affect the future marketability of the Bonds. There is no assurance that a secondary market for the Bonds will develop or that holders who desire to sell their Bonds prior to the stated maturity will be able to do so. Deemed Representations and Acknowledgment by Investors Each Investor will be deemed to have acknowledged and represented to the City the matters set forth under the heading “LIMITATIONS APPLICABLE TO INITIAL PURCHASERS” which include, among others, a representation and acknowledgment that the purchase of the Bonds involves investment risks, certain of which are set forth under this heading “BONDHOLDERS’ RISKS” and elsewhere herein, and such Investor, either alone or with its purchaser representative(s) (as defined in Rule 501(h) of Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933), has sophisticated knowledge and experience in financial and business matters and the capacity to evaluate such risks in making an informed investment decision to purchase the Bonds, and the Investor can afford a complete loss of its investment in the Bonds. 52 TIRZ No. 4 Annual Credit Amount and Marketing of the Development With respect to the Bonds, the Residential Contribution will be generated only from ad valorem taxes levied and collected by the City on the Captured Taxable Value of real property in Improvement Area #1 in any year. Any delay or failure by the Developer to develop Improvement Area #1 may result in a reduced amount of the Residential Contribution being available to credit the Assessments. If the City contributes the Residential Contribution to the payment of the Improvement Area #1 Improvements, the City will deposit less tax revenue into its general fund for use on public services, such as police and fire protection. Application of the TIRZ No. 4 Annual Credit Amount may affect the City’s ability to provide for such basic services. It is uncertain what impact, if any, the TIRZ No. 4 Annual Credit Amount application to the Annual Installments will have on the underwriting of residential mortgages. If the underwriter of residential mortgages does not recognize the TIRZ No. 4 Annual Credit Amount, it may make it more difficult for a borrower to qualify for a home mortgage which could have a negative impact on home sales and projected absorption. Infectious Disease Outbreak In March 2020, the World Health Organization and the President of the United States (the “President”) separately declared the outbreak of a respiratory disease caused by a novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) to be a public health emergency (the “Pandemic”). On April 10, 2023, the President signed a resolution terminating the national emergency related to the Pandemic, and on May 5, 2023, the World Health organization declared COVID-19 no longer represented a global health emergency. There are currently no COVID-19 related operating limits imposed by executive order of the Governor of the State for any business or other establishment in the State. The Governor retains the right to impose additional restrictions on activities if needed in order to mitigate the effects of COVID- 19. The City has not experienced any decrease in property values or unusual tax delinquencies as a result of COVID-19. However, the City cannot predict the long-term economic effect of COVID-19 or a similar virus should there be a reversal of economic activity or re-imposition of restrictions. Failure or Inability to Complete Proposed Development Proposed development within Improvement Area #1 of the District may be affected by changes in general economic conditions, fluctuations in the real estate market and interest rates, changes in the income tax treatment of real property ownership, unexpected increases in development costs and other similar factors as well as availability of utilities and the development or existence of environmental concerns with such land. See “– Hazardous Substances” and “– Availability of Utilities” below. Land development within Improvement Area #1 of the District could also be affected adversely by changes in governmental policies, including, but not limited to, governmental policies to restrict or control development. Any approvals needed in the future for Improvement Area #1 of the District must come from the City. There can be no assurances that other similar projects will not be developed in the future or that existing projects will not be upgraded or otherwise able to compete with the Development. A slowdown of the development process and the related absorption rate within the Development because of any or all of the foregoing could affect adversely land values. In addition, as described in “THE DEVELOPMENT – Development Agreement,” the Development Agreement restricts the development of property outside of Improvement Area #1 until the Laguna is completed. Such limitations could adversely impact the completion of the Development as anticipated. THE TIMELY PAYMENT OF THE BONDS DEPENDS UPON THE WILLINGNESS AND ABILITY OF THE DEVELOPER AND ANY SUBSEQUENT OWNERS TO PAY THE ASSESSMENTS WHEN DUE. ANY OR ALL OF THE FOREGOING COULD REDUCE THE WILLINGNESS AND THE ABILITY OF SUCH OWNERS TO PAY THE ASSESSMENTS AND COULD GREATLY REDUCE THE VALUE OF PROPERTY WITHIN IMPROVEMENT AREA #1 OF THE DISTRICT IN THE EVENT SUCH PROPERTY HAS TO BE FORECLOSED. In that event, there could be a default in the payment of the Bonds. Completion of the Improvement Area #1 Improvements The construction of some of the Major Improvements that are necessary for the successful development of Improvement Area #1 of the District are expected to be completed in September 2023, but are not yet complete. See 53 “THE IMPROVEMENT AREA #1 IMPROVEMENTS – General.” The cost and time for completion of all of such improvements is uncertain and may be affected by changes in national, regional, and local and economic conditions; changes in long and short term interest rates; changes in the climate for real estate purchases; changes in demand for or supply of competing properties; changes in local, regional, and national market and economic conditions; unanticipated development costs, market preferences, and architectural trends; unforeseen environmental risks and controls; the adverse use of adjacent and neighboring real estate; changes in interest rates and the availability of mortgage funds to buyers of the homes to be built in Improvement Area #1 of the District, which may render the sale of such homes difficult or unattractive; acts of war, terrorism, or other political instability; delays or inability to obtain governmental approvals; changes in laws; moratorium; force majeure (which may result in uninsured losses); strikes; labor shortages; energy shortages; material shortages; inflation; adverse weather conditions; subcontractor defaults; and other unknown contingencies and factors beyond the control of the Developer and the City. If cost overruns result in delay of construction, or if other delays are experienced, the Developer may be unable to complete timely the Major Improvements necessary for delivery of lots in Improvement Area #1 of the District. Completion of Homes The cost and time for completion of homes by the Homebuilder is uncertain and may be affected by changes in national, regional, and local market and economic conditions; changes in long and short term interest rates; changes in the climate for real estate purchases; changes in demand for or supply of competing properties; unanticipated development costs, market preferences and architectural trends; unforeseen environmental risks and controls; the adverse use of adjacent and neighboring real estate; changes in interest rates and the availability of mortgage funds to buyers of the homes yet to be built in the Development, which may render the sale of such homes difficult or unattractive; acts of war, terrorism or other political instability; delays or inability to obtain governmental approvals; changes in laws; moratorium; force majeure (which may result in uninsured losses); strikes; labor shortages; energy shortages; material shortages; inflation; adverse weather conditions; subcontractor defaults; and other unknown contingencies and factors beyond the control of the Developer and the Homebuilder. Absorption Rate There can be no assurance that the Developer or the Homebuilder will be able to achieve its anticipated absorption rates. Failure to achieve the absorption rate estimates will adversely affect the estimated value of Improvement Area #1 of the District, could impair the economic viability of Improvement Area #1 of the District, and could reduce the ability or desire of property owners to pay the Assessments. Assessment Limitations Annual Installments of Assessments are billed to property owners in Improvement Area #1 of the District. Annual Installments are due and payable, and bear the same penalties and interest for non-payment, as for ad valorem taxes as described under “ASSESSMENT PROCEDURES.” Additionally, Annual Installments established by the Service and Assessment Plan correspond in number and proportionate amount to the number of installments and principal amounts of Bonds maturing in each year and the Administrative Expenses for such year. See “ASSESSMENT PROCEDURES.” The unwillingness or inability of a property owner to pay regular property tax bills as evidenced by property tax delinquencies may also indicate an unwillingness or inability to make regular property tax payments and Annual Installments of Assessment payments in the future. In order to pay debt service on the Bonds, it is necessary that Annual Installments are paid in a timely manner. Due to the lack of predictability in the collection of Annual Installments in Improvement Area #1 of the District, the City has established a Reserve Account in the Reserve Fund, to be funded from the proceeds of the Bonds, to cover delinquencies. The Annual Installments are secured by the Assessment Lien. However, there can be no assurance that foreclosure proceedings will occur in a timely manner so as to avoid depletion of the Reserve Account and delay in payments of debt service on the Bonds. See “BONDHOLDERS’ RISKS – Bondholders’ Remedies and Bankruptcy.” Upon an ad valorem tax lien foreclosure event of a property within Improvement Area #1 of the District, any lien securing an Assessment that is delinquent will be foreclosed upon in the same manner as the ad valorem tax lien (assuming all necessary conditions and procedures for foreclosure are duly satisfied). To the extent that a 54 foreclosure sale results in insufficient funds to pay in full both the delinquent ad valorem taxes and the delinquent Assessments, the liens securing such delinquent ad valorem taxes and delinquent Assessments would likely be extinguished. Any remaining unpaid balance of the delinquent Assessments would then be an unsecured personal liability of the original property owner. Based upon the language of Texas Local Government Code, §372.017(b), case law relating to other types of assessment liens and opinions of the Texas Attorney General, the Assessment Lien as it relates to installment payments that are not yet due should remain in effect following an ad valorem tax lien foreclosure, with future installment payments not being accelerated. Texas Local Government Code §372.018(d) supports this position, stating that an Assessment Lien runs with the land and the portion of an assessment payment that has not yet come due is not eliminated by foreclosure of an ad valorem tax lien. The Assessment Lien is superior to any homestead rights of a property owner that were properly claimed after the adoption of the Assessment Ordinance. However, an Assessment Lien may not be foreclosed upon if any homestead rights of a property owner were properly claimed prior to the adoption of the Assessment Ordinance (“Pre-existing Homestead Rights”) for as long as such rights are maintained on the property. It is unclear under Texas law whether or not Pre-existing Homestead Rights would prevent the Assessment Lien from attaching to such homestead property or instead cause the Assessment Lien to attach, but remain subject to, the Pre-existing Homestead Rights. Under Texas law, in order to establish homestead rights, the claimant must show a combination of both overt acts of homestead usage and intention on the part of the owner to claim the land as a homestead. Mere ownership of the property alone is insufficient and the intent to use the property as a homestead must be a present one, not an intention to make the property a homestead at some indefinite time in the future. As of the date of adoption of the Assessment Ordinance, no such homestead rights will have been claimed. Furthermore, the Developer is not eligible to claim homestead rights and the Developer has represented that it will own all property within Improvement Area #1 of the District as of the date of the Assessment Ordinance. Consequently, there are and can be no homestead rights on the Assessed Property superior to the Assessment Lien and, therefore, the Assessment Lien may be foreclosed upon by the City. Failure by owners of the parcels to pay Annual Installments when due, depletion of the Reserve Fund, delay in foreclosure proceedings, or inability of the City to sell parcels which have been subject to foreclosure proceedings for amounts sufficient to cover the delinquent installments of Assessments levied against such parcels may result in the inability of the City to make full or punctual payments of debt service on the Bonds. THE ASSESSMENTS WILL CONSTITUTE A FIRST AND PRIOR LIEN AGAINST THE PROPERTY ASSESSED, SUPERIOR TO ALL OTHER LIENS AND CLAIMS EXCEPT LIENS AND CLAIMS FOR STATE, COUNTY, SCHOOL DISTRICT, OR MUNICIPALITY AD VALOREM TAXES AND WILL BE PERSONAL OBLIGATIONS OF AND CHARGES AGAINST THE OWNERS OF PROPERTY LOCATED WITHIN IMPROVEMENT AREA #1 OF THE DISTRICT. Bankruptcy The payment of Assessments and the ability of the City to foreclose on the lien of a delinquent unpaid Assessment may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, or other laws generally affecting creditors’ rights or by the laws of the State relating to judicial foreclosure. Although bankruptcy proceedings would not cause the Assessments to become extinguished, bankruptcy of a property owner in all likelihood would result in a delay in prosecuting foreclosure proceedings. Such a delay would increase the likelihood of a delay or default in payment of the principal of and interest on the Bonds, and the possibility that delinquent Assessments might not be paid in full. Direct and Overlapping Indebtedness, Assessments and Taxes The ability of an owner of property within Improvement Area #1 of the District to pay the Assessments could be affected by the existence of other taxes and assessments imposed upon the property. Public entities whose boundaries overlap those of Improvement Area #1 of the District currently impose ad valorem taxes on the property within Improvement Area #1 of the District and will likely do so in the future. Such entities could also impose 55 assessment liens on the property within Improvement Area #1 of the District. The imposition of additional liens, whether from taxes, assessments, or private financing, may reduce the ability or willingness of the landowners to pay the Assessments. See “OVERLAPPING TAXES AND DEBT.” Depletion of Reserve Fund; No Prefunding of Delinquency and Prepayment Reserve Account Failure of the owners of property within Improvement Area #1 of the District to pay the Assessments when due could result in the rapid, total depletion of the Reserve Fund prior to replenishment from the resale of property upon a foreclosure or otherwise or delinquency redemptions after a foreclosure sale, if any. There could be a default in payments of the principal of and interest on the Bonds if sufficient amounts are not available in the Reserve Fund. The Delinquency and Prepayment Reserve Account of the Reserve Fund is not funded from proceeds of the Bonds. Instead, funding of the Delinquency and Prepayment Reserve Account is accumulated over time, by the mechanism described in “SECURITY FOR THE BONDS – Reserve Fund (Reserve Account and Delinquency and Prepayment Reserve Account.” The Indenture provides that if after a withdrawal from the Reserve Account the amounts therein are less than the Reserve Account Requirement, the Trustee shall transfer an amount from the Pledged Revenue Fund to the Reserve Account sufficient to cure such deficiency. The Indenture also provides that if the amount on deposit in the Delinquency and Prepayment Reserve Account shall at any time be less than the Delinquency and Prepayment Reserve Requirement, the Trustee shall notify the City, in writing, of the amount of such shortfall and the City shall resume collecting the Additional Interest and shall file a City Certificate with the Trustee instructing the Trustee to resume depositing the Additional Interest from the Bond Pledged Revenue Account of the Pledged Revenue Fund into the Delinquency and Prepayment Reserve Account until the Delinquency and Prepayment Reserve Requirement has been accumulated in the Delinquency and Prepayment Reserve Account; provided, however, that the City shall not be required to replenish the Delinquency and Prepayment Reserve Account in the event funds are transferred from the Delinquency and Prepayment Reserve Account to the Redemption Fund as a result of an extraordinary optional redemption of Bonds from the proceeds of a Prepayment, as described under “SECURITY FOR THE BONDS – Reserve Fund (Reserve Account and Delinquency and Prepayment Reserve Account ).” Hazardous Substances While governmental taxes, assessments, and charges are a common claim against the value of a parcel, other less common claims may be relevant. One of the most serious in terms of the potential reduction in the value that may be realized to the assessment is a claim with regard to a hazardous substance. In general, the owners and operators of a parcel may be required by law to remedy conditions relating to releases or threatened releases of hazardous substances. The federal Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, sometimes referred to as “CERCLA” or the “Superfund Act,” is the most well-known and widely applicable of these laws. It is likely that, should any of the parcels of land located in Improvement Area #1 of the District be affected by a hazardous substance, the marketability and value of such parcels would be reduced by the costs of remedying the condition, because the purchaser, upon becoming owner, will become obligated to remedy the condition just as is the seller. The value of the land within Improvement Area #1 of the District does not take into account the possible liability of the owner (or operator) for the remediation of a hazardous substance condition on the property in Improvement Area #1 of the District. The City has not independently verified, and is not aware, that the owner (or operator) of any of the parcels within Improvement Area #1 of the District has such a current liability with respect to such parcel; however, it is possible that such liabilities do currently exist and that the City is not aware of them. Further, it is possible that liabilities may arise in the future with respect to any of the land within Improvement Area #1 of the District resulting from the existence, currently, of a substance presently classified as hazardous but which has not been released or the release of which is not presently threatened, or may arise in the future resulting from the existence, currently, on the parcel of a substance not presently classified as hazardous but which may in the future be so classified. Further, such liabilities may arise not simply from the existence of a hazardous substance but from the method of handling it. The actual occurrence of any of these possibilities could significantly negatively affect the value of a parcel that is realizable upon a foreclosure. 56 See “THE DEVELOPMENT – Environmental” for discussion of the Phase One ESA performed on property within the District. Regulation Development within Improvement Area #1 of the District may be subject to future federal, State, and local regulations. Approval may be required from various agencies from time to time in connection with the layout and design of development in Improvement Area #1 of the District, the nature and extent of Improvement Area #1 Improvements, land use, zoning, and other matters. Failure to meet any such regulations or obtain any such approvals in a timely manner could delay or adversely affect development in Improvement Area #1 of the District and property values. Recent Changes in State Law Regarding Public Improvement Districts The 87th Legislature passed HB 1543, which became effective September 1, 2021, and requires a person who proposes to sell or otherwise convey real property within a public improvement district to provide to the purchaser of the property, before the execution of a binding contract of purchase and sale, written notice of the obligation to pay public improvement district assessments, in accordance with Section 5.014, Texas Property Code, as amended. In the event a contract of purchase and sale is entered into without the seller providing the notice, the intended purchaser is entitled to terminate the contract of purchase and sale. If the Developer or the Homebuilder does not provide the required notice and prospective purchasers of property within Improvement Area #1 of the District terminate a purchase and sale contract, the anticipated absorption schedule may be affected. In addition to the right to terminate the purchase contract, a property owner who did not receive the required notice is entitled, after sale, to sue for damages for (i) all costs relative to the purchase, plus interest and reasonable attorney’s fees, or (ii) an amount not to exceed $5,000, plus reasonable attorney’s fees. In a suit filed pursuant to clause (i), any damages awarded must go first to pay any outstanding liens on the property. In such an event, the outstanding Assessments on such property may be paid. On payment of all damages respectively to the lienholders and purchaser pursuant to clause (i), the purchaser is required to reconvey the property to the seller. Further, if the Developer or the Homebuilder does not provide the required notice and becomes liable for monetary damages, the anticipated buildout and absorption schedule may be affected. No assurances can be given that the projected buildout and absorption schedules presented in this Limited Offering Memorandum will be realized. The forms of notice to be provided to homebuyers are attached as appendices to the Service and Assessment Plan. See “APPENDIX C – Service and Assessment Plan.” Potential Future Changes in State Law Regarding Public Improvement Districts During past Texas legislative sessions and interim business of the Texas legislature, various proposals and reports have been presented by committees of Texas Senate and Texas House of Representative which suggest or recommend changes to the PID Act relating to oversight of bonds secured by special assessments, including adopting requirements relating to levels of build out or adding State level oversight in connection with the issuance of bonds secured by special assessments under the PID Act. It is impossible to predict what bills may be introduced during upcoming legislative sessions and, if passed, the impact that any future legislation will or may have on the security for the Bonds. 500-Year Flood Plain and Severe Weather Events According to the Federal Emergency Management Agency (“FEMA”) Flood Insurance Rate Map, Community Panel Number 48085C0155J, effective June 2, 2009, all of the property within Improvement Area #1 of the District lies outside of the 500-year flood plain, referred to as Zone X. FEMA will from time to time revise its Flood Insurance Rate Maps. None of the City, the Underwriter, or the Developer make any representation as to whether FEMA may revise its Flood Insurance Rate Maps, whether such revisions may result in homes that are currently outside of the 500-year flood plain from being included in the 500-year or 100-year flood plain in the future, or whether extreme flooding events may occur more often than assumed in creating the 500-year flood plain. All of the State, including the City, is subject to extreme weather events that can cause loss of life and damage to property through strong winds, flooding, heavy rains and freezes, including events similar to the severe 57 winter storm that the continental United States experienced in February 2021, which resulted in disruptions in the Electric Reliability Council of Texas power grid and prolonged blackouts throughout the State. It is impossible to predict whether similar events will occur in the future and the impact they may have on the City, including land within Improvement Area #1 of the District. Exercise of Third-Party Property Rights As described under “THE DEVELOPMENT – Existing Mineral and Groundwater Rights, Easements and Other Third-Party Property Rights,” there are certain mineral rights, royalty interests, and easement reservations located within Improvement Area #1 of the District and not owned by the Developer. There may also be additional mineral rights, royalty interests, easements, water rights, and related real property rights reflected in the chain of title for the real property within Improvement Area #1 of the District recorded in the real property records of Collin County. The Developer does not expect the existence or exercise of any such third-party rights in or around Improvement Area #1 of the District to have a material adverse effect on the Development, the property within Improvement Area #1 of the District, or the ability of landowners within Improvement Area #1 of the District to pay Assessments. However, none of the City, the Financial Advisor, or the Underwriter provide any assurances as to such Developer expectations. Bondholders’ Remedies and Bankruptcy In the event of default in the payment of principal of or interest on the Bonds or the occurrence of any other Event of Default under the Indenture, the Trustee may, and at the written direction of the Owners of not less than 51% in aggregate Outstanding principal amount of the Bonds and its receipt of indemnity satisfactory to it shall, proceed against the City for the purpose of protecting and enforcing the rights of the Owners under the 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 the Indenture or Applicable Laws, including, but not limited to, the specific performance of any covenant or agreement contained therein, or injunction; provided, however, that no action for money damages against the City may be sought or shall be permitted. The issuance of a writ of mandamus may be sought if there is no other available remedy at law to compel performance of the City’s obligations under the Bonds or the Indenture and such obligations are not uncertain or disputed. The remedy of mandamus is controlled by equitable principles, so its use rests within the discretion of the court but may not be arbitrarily refused. There is no acceleration of maturity of the Bonds in the event of default and, consequently, the remedy of mandamus may have to be relied upon from year to year. The owners of the Bonds cannot themselves foreclose on or sell property within Improvement Area #1 in order to pay the principal of and interest on the Bonds. The enforceability of the rights and remedies of the owners of the Bonds further may be limited by laws relating to bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar laws of general application affecting the rights of creditors of political subdivisions such as the City. In this regard, should the City file a petition for protection from creditors under federal bankruptcy laws, the remedy of mandamus or the right of the City to seek judicial foreclosure of its Assessment Lien would be automatically stayed and could not be pursued unless authorized by a federal bankruptcy judge. See “BONDHOLDERS’ RISKS – Bankruptcy Limitation to Bondholders’ Rights.” Any bankruptcy court with jurisdiction over bankruptcy proceedings initiated by or against a property owner within Improvement Area #1 of the District pursuant to the Federal Bankruptcy Code could, subject to its discretion, delay or limit any attempt by the City to collect delinquent Assessments, or delinquent ad valorem taxes, against such property owner. In addition, in 2006, the Texas Supreme Court ruled in Tooke v. City of Mexia, 197 S.W.3d 325 (Tex. 2006) (“Tooke”) that a waiver of sovereign immunity must be provided for by statute in “clear and unambiguous” language. In so ruling, the Court declared that statutory language such as “sue and be sued,” in and of itself, did not constitute a clear and unambiguous waiver of sovereign immunity. In Tooke, the Court noted the enactment in 2005 of sections 271.151-.160, Texas Local Government Code (the “Local Government Immunity Waiver Act”), which, according to the Court, waives “immunity from suit for contract claims against most local governmental entities in 58 certain circumstances.” The Local Government Immunity Waiver Act covers cities and relates to contracts entered into by cities for providing goods or services to cities. In Wasson Interests, Ltd. v. City of Jacksonville, 489 S.W.3d 427 (Tex. 2016) (“Wasson”), the Texas Supreme Court (the “Court”) addressed whether the distinction between governmental and proprietary acts (as found in tort-based causes of action) applies to breach of contract claims against municipalities. The Court analyzed the rationale behind the Proprietary-Governmental Dichotomy to determine that “a city’s proprietary functions are not done pursuant to the ‘will of the people’” and protecting such municipalities “via the [S]tate’s immunity is not an efficient way to ensure efficient allocation of [S]tate resources.” While the Court recognized that the distinction between governmental and proprietary functions is not clear, the Wasson opinion held that the Proprietary- Governmental Dichotomy applies in a contract-claims context. The Court reviewed Wasson for a second time and issued an opinion on October 5, 2018, clarifying that to determine whether governmental immunity applies to a breach of contract claim, the proper inquiry is whether the municipality was engaged in a governmental or proprietary function when it entered into the contract, not at the time of the alleged breach. Therefore, in regard to municipal contract cases (as in tort claims), it is incumbent on the courts to determine whether a function was proprietary or governmental based upon the statutory and common law guidance at the time of inception of the contractual relationship. Texas jurisprudence has generally held that proprietary functions are those conducted by a city in its private capacity, for the benefit only of those within its corporate limits, and not as an arm of the government or under authority or for the benefit of the State; these are usually activities that can be, and often are, provided by private persons, and therefore are not done as a branch of the State, and do not implicate the state’s immunity since they are not performed under the authority, or for the benefit, of the State as sovereign. Notwithstanding the foregoing new case law issued by the Court, such sovereign immunity issues have not been adjudicated in relation to bond matters (specifically, in regard to the issuance of municipal debt). Each situation will be prospectively evaluated based on the facts and circumstances surrounding the contract in question to determine if a suit, and subsequently, a judgment, is justiciable against a municipality. The City is not aware of any Texas court construing the Local Government Immunity Waiver Act in the context of whether contractual undertakings of local governments that relate to their borrowing powers are contracts covered by such act. Because it is unclear whether the Texas legislature has effectively waived the City’s sovereign immunity from a suit for money damages in the absence of City action, the Trustee or the owners of the Bonds may not be able to bring such a suit against the City for breach of the Bonds or the Indenture covenants. As noted above, the Indenture provides that owners of the Bonds may exercise the remedy of mandamus to enforce the obligations of the City under the Indenture. Neither the remedy of mandamus nor any other type of injunctive relief was at issue in Tooke, and it is unclear whether Tooke will be construed to have any effect with respect to the exercise of mandamus, as such remedy has been interpreted by Texas courts. In general, Texas courts have held that a writ of mandamus may be issued to require public officials to perform ministerial acts that clearly pertain to their duties. Texas courts have held that a ministerial act is defined as a legal duty that is prescribed and defined with a precision and certainty that leaves nothing to the exercise of discretion or judgment, though mandamus is not available to enforce purely contractual duties. However, mandamus may be used to require a public officer to perform legally imposed ministerial duties necessary for the performance of a valid contract to which the State or a political subdivision of the State is a party (including the payment of moneys due under a contract). Judicial Foreclosures Judicial foreclosure proceedings are not mandatory; however, the City has covenanted to order and cause such actions to be commenced. In the event a foreclosure is necessary, there could be a delay in payments to owners of the Bonds pending prosecution of the foreclosure proceedings and receipt by the City of the proceeds of the foreclosure sale. It is possible that no bid would be received at the foreclosure sale, and, in such event, there could be an additional delay in payment of the principal of and interest on the Bonds or such payment may not be made in full. Moreover, in filing a suit to foreclose, the City must join other taxing units that have claims for delinquent taxes against all or part of the same property; the proceeds of any sale of property within Improvement Area #1 of the District available to pay debt service on the Bonds may be limited by the existence of other tax liens on the property. See “OVERLAPPING TAXES AND DEBT.” Collection of delinquent taxes, assessments, and the Assessments may be adversely affected by the effects of market conditions on the foreclose sale price, and by other factors, including taxpayers’ right to redeem property within two years of foreclosure for residential and agricultural use property and six months for other property, and by a time-consuming and expensive collection procedure. 59 No Acceleration The Indenture expressly denies the right of acceleration in the event of a payment default or other default under the terms of the Bonds or the Indenture. Limited Secondary Market for the Bonds The Bonds may not constitute a liquid investment, and there is no assurance that a liquid secondary market will exist for the Bonds in the event an Owner thereof determines to solicit purchasers for the Bonds. Even if a liquid secondary market exists, there can be no assurance as to the price for which the Bonds may be sold. Such price may be lower than that paid by the current Owners of the Bonds, depending on the progress of development of Improvement Area #1 of the District subject to the Assessments, existing real estate and financial market conditions, and other factors. No Credit Rating The City has not applied for or received a rating on the Bonds. Even if a credit rating had been sought for the Bonds, it is not anticipated that such a rating would have been investment grade. The absence of a rating could affect the future marketability of the Bonds. There is no assurance that a secondary market for the Bonds will develop or that holders who desire to sell their Bonds prior to the stated maturity will be able to do so. Occasionally, because of general market conditions or because of adverse history or economic prospects connected with a particular issue, secondary market trading in connection with a particular issue is suspended or terminated. Additionally, prices of issues for which a market is being made will depend upon then generally prevailing circumstances. Such prices could be substantially different from the original purchase price. Use of Appraisal Caution should be exercised in the evaluation and use of valuations included in the Appraisal. The Appraisal is an estimate of market value as of a specified date based upon assumptions and limiting conditions and any extraordinary assumptions specific to the relevant valuation and specified therein. The estimated market value specified in the Appraisal is not a precise measure of value, but is based on a subjective comparison of related activity taking place in the real estate market. The valuation set forth in the Appraisal is based on various assumptions of future expectations and while the appraiser’s forecasts for properties in Improvement Area #1 of the District is considered to be reasonable at the current time, some of the assumptions may not materialize or may differ materially from actual experience in the future. The Bonds will not necessarily trade at values determined solely by reference to the underlying value of the properties in Improvement Area #1 of the District. In performing its analyses, an appraiser makes numerous assumptions with respect to general business, economic and regulatory conditions, and other matters, many of which are beyond the Appraiser’s, Underwriter’s, and City’s control, as well as to certain factual matters. Furthermore, the Appraiser’s analysis, opinions, and conclusions are necessarily based upon market, economic, financial, and other circumstances and conditions existing prior to the valuation. The intended use and user of the Appraisal are specifically identified in the Appraisal as agreed upon in the contract for services and/or reliance language found in the Appraisal. The Appraiser has consented to the use of the Appraisal in this Limited Offering Memorandum in connection with the issuance of the Bonds. No other use or user of the Appraisal is permitted by any other party for any other purpose. Bankruptcy Limitation to Bondholders’ Rights The enforceability of the rights and remedies of the owners of the Bonds may be limited by laws relating to bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar laws of general application affecting the rights of creditors of political subdivisions such as the City. The City is authorized under State law to voluntarily proceed under Chapter 9 of the Federal Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. 901-946. The City may proceed under Chapter 9 if it (1) is generally not paying its debts, or unable to meet its debts, as they become due, (2) desires to effect a plan to adjust such debts, and (3) has either obtained the agreement of or negotiated in good faith with its creditors, is unable to negotiate with its 60 creditors because negotiation is impracticable, or reasonably believes that a creditor may attempt to obtain a preferential transfer. If the City decides in the future to proceed voluntarily under the Federal Bankruptcy Code, the City would develop and file a plan for the adjustment of its debts, and the Bankruptcy Court would confirm the plan if (1) the plan complies with the applicable provisions of the Federal Bankruptcy Code, (2) all payments to be made in connection with the plan are fully disclosed and reasonable, (3) the City is not prohibited by law from taking any action necessary to carry out the plan, (4) administrative expenses are paid in full, (5) all regulatory or electoral approvals required under State law are obtained and (6) the plan is in the best interests of creditors and is feasible. The rights and remedies of the owners of the Bonds would be adjusted in accordance with the confirmed plan of adjustment of the City’s debt. Management and Ownership The management and ownership of the Developer, the Homebuilder, and related or affiliated property owners could change in the future. Purchasers of the Bonds should not rely on the management experience of such entities. There are no assurances that such entities will not sell the subject property or that officers will not resign or be replaced. In such circumstances, a new developer, homebuilder, or new officers in management positions may not have comparable experience in projects comparable to the Development. Tax-Exempt Status of the Bonds The Indenture contains covenants by the City intended to preserve the exclusion from gross income of interest on the Bonds for federal income tax purposes. As discussed under the caption “TAX MATTERS,” interest on the Bonds could become includable in gross income for purposes of federal income taxation retroactive to the date the Bonds were issued as a result of future acts or omissions of the City in violation of its covenants in the Indenture. Tax legislation, administrative actions taken by tax authorities, or court decisions, whether at the federal or State level, may adversely affect the tax-exempt status of interest on the Bonds under federal or State law and could affect the market price or marketability of the Bonds. Any such proposal could limit the value of certain deductions and exclusions, including the exclusion for tax-exempt interest. The likelihood of any such proposal being enacted cannot be predicted. Prospective purchasers of the Bonds should consult their own tax advisors regarding the foregoing matters. As further described in “TAX MATTERS” below, failure of the City to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”) and the related legal authorities, or changes in the federal tax law or its application, could cause interest on the Bonds to be included in the gross income of owners of the Bonds for federal income tax purposes, possibly from the date of original issuance of the Bonds. Further, the opinion of Bond Counsel is based on current legal authority, covers certain matters not directly addressed by such authorities, and represents Bond Counsel’s judgment as to the proper treatment of interest on the Bonds for federal income tax purposes. It is not binding on the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) or the courts. The IRS has an ongoing program of auditing obligations that are issued and sold as bearing tax-exempt interest to determine whether, in the view of the IRS, interest on such obligations is included in the gross income of the owners thereof for federal income tax purposes. It cannot be predicted if this IRS focus could lead to an audit of the Bonds or what the result would be of any such audit. If an audit of the Bonds is commenced, under current procedures parties other than the City would have little, if any, right to participate in the audit process. Moreover, because achieving judicial review in connection with an audit of tax-exempt obligations is difficult, obtaining an independent review of IRS positions with which the City legitimately disagrees may not be practicable. Any action of the IRS, regardless of the outcome, including but not limited to selection of the Bonds for audit, or the course or result of such audit, or an audit of obligations presenting similar tax issues, may affect the market price for, or the marketability of, the Bonds. Finally, if the IRS ultimately determines that the interest on the Bonds is not excluded from the gross income of Bondholders for federal income tax purposes, the City may not have the resources to settle with the IRS, the Bonds are not required to be redeemed, and the interest rate on the Bonds will not increase. 61 General Risks of Real Estate Investment and Development The Developer has the right to modify or change its plan for development of the District, from time to time, including, without limitation, land use changes, changes in the overall land and phasing plans, and changes to the type, mix, size, and number of units to be developed. No defined “true-up” agreement has been entered into between the City and the Developer, nor is there a requirement that future developers or landowners enter into such an agreement. There can be no assurance, in the event the Developer or a subsequent developer modifies or changes its plan for development, that the necessary revisions to the Service and Assessment Plan will be made. Nor can there be an assurance that the eventual assessment burden on the property will be marketable. The ability of the Developer to develop lots and the Homebuilder to sell single-family residential homes within Improvement Area #1 of the District may be affected by unforeseen changes in the general economic conditions, fluctuations in the real estate market, and other factors beyond the control of the owner of the single- family residential lots. In the event that a large number of single-family projects are constructed outside of Improvement Area #1 of the District, and compete with the Development, the demand for residential housing within Improvement Area #1 of the District could be reduced, thereby adversely affecting the continued development of Improvement Area #1 of the District, or its attraction to businesses and residents. Investments in undeveloped or developing real estate are generally considered to be speculative in nature and to involve a high degree of risk. Improvement Area #1 of the District will be subject to the risks generally incident to real estate investments and development. Many factors that may affect Improvement Area #1 of the District, as well as the operating revenues of the Developer, including those derived from the Development, are not within the control of the Developer or the Homebuilder. Such factors include changes in national, regional, and local economic conditions; changes in long and short term interest rates; changes in the climate for real estate purchases; changes in demand for or supply of competing properties; changes in local, regional and national market and economic conditions; unanticipated development costs, market preferences and architectural trends; unforeseen environmental risks and controls; the adverse use of adjacent and neighboring real estate; changes in interest rates and the availability of mortgage funds to buyers of the homes to be built in Improvement Area #1 of the District, which may render the sale of such homes difficult or unattractive; acts of war, terrorism or other political instability; delays or inability to obtain governmental approvals; changes in laws; moratorium; acts of God (which may result in uninsured losses); strikes; labor shortages; energy shortages; material shortages; inflation; adverse weather conditions; contractor or subcontractor defaults; and other unknown contingencies and factors beyond the control of the Developer and the Homebuilder. Improvement Area #1 of the District cannot be completed without the Developer or the Homebuilder obtaining a variety of governmental approvals and permits, some of which have already been obtained. Certain permits are necessary to initiate construction of the Improvement Area #1 Improvements and to allow the occupancy of residences and to satisfy conditions included in the approvals and permits. There can be no assurance that all of these permits and approvals can be obtained or that the conditions to the approvals and permits can be fulfilled. The failure to obtain any of the required approvals or fulfill any one of the conditions could cause materially adverse financial results for the Developer and the Homebuilder. A slowdown of the development process and the related absorption rate within Improvement Area #1 of the District because of any or all of the foregoing could affect adversely land values. The timely payment of the Bonds depends on the willingness and ability of the Developer and any subsequent owners to pay the Assessments when due. Any or all of the foregoing could reduce the willingness and ability of such owners to pay the Assessments and could greatly reduce the value of the property within Improvement Area #1 of the District in the event such property has to be foreclosed. If Annual Installments of Assessments are not timely paid and there are insufficient funds in the accounts of the Reserve Fund, a nonpayment could result in a payment default under the Indenture. Risks Related to the Current Residential Real Estate Market The real estate market is currently experiencing a slowing of new home sales and new home closings due in part to rising inflation and mortgage interest rates. Downturns in the real estate market and other factors beyond the control of the Developer and the Homebuilder, including general economic conditions, may impact the timing of 62 parcel, lot, and home sales within Improvement Area #1 of the District. No assurances can be given that projected home prices and buildout values presented in this Limited Offering Memorandum will be realized. Risks Related to Current Increase in Costs of Building Materials As a result of the Pandemic, low supply and demand and the ongoing trade war, there have been substantial increases in the cost of lumber and other materials, causing many homebuilders and general contractors to experience budget overruns. The Developer is responsible for the construction of the Improvement Area #1 Improvements. The Developer expects to finance a portion of the costs of the Improvement Area #1 Improvements from proceeds of the Bonds. If the Actual Costs of the Improvement Area #1 Improvements are substantially greater than the estimated costs or if the Developer is unable to access building materials in a timely manner, it may affect the ability of the Developer to complete the Improvement Area #1 Improvements or pay the Assessments when due. If the costs of material continue to increase, it may affect the ability of the Homebuilder to construct homes within Improvement Area #1 of the District. There is no way to predict whether such cost increases or low supply of building materials will continue or if such continuance will affect the development of the District. Adverse Developments Affecting the Financial Services Industry Actual events involving limited liquidity, defaults, non-performance, or other adverse developments that affect financial institutions, transactional counterparties, or other companies in the financial services industry or the financial services industry generally, or concerns or rumors about any events of these kinds or other similar risks, have in the past and may in the future lead to market-wide liquidity problems. For example, on March 10, 2023, Silicon Valley Bank (“SVB”) was closed by the California Department of Financial Protection and Innovation, which appointed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) as receiver. Similarly, on March 12, 2023, Signature Bank and Silvergate Capital Corp. were each swept into receivership. In March of 2023, UBS agreed to acquire the troubled Credit Suisse, and troubled First Republic Bank received a $30 billion rescue package from 11 of the biggest U.S. banks in an effort to prevent its collapse; however, on May 1, 2023, the FDIC seized First Republic Bank and sold its assets to JPMorgan Chase & Co. Although a statement by the Department of the Treasury, the Federal Reserve, and the FDIC stated that all depositors of SVB would have access to all of their money after only one business day of closure, including funds held in uninsured deposit accounts, borrowers under credit agreements, letters of credit, and certain other financial instruments with SVB, Signature Bank, or any other financial institution that is placed into receivership by the FDIC may be unable to access undrawn amounts. If the Developer is unable to access funds pursuant the Improvement Area #1 Development Loan with the Lender, the Developer’s ability to finance the costs of the Improvement Area #1 Improvements, or to enter into new commercial lending arrangements to complete the Development, could be adversely affected. If a Homebuilder uses a line of credit or other financial instrument to finance home construction and is unable to access funds under such line of credit or other financial instrument, the Homebuilder’s ability to take down lots and complete homes could be adversely affected. Additionally, confidence in the safety and soundness of regional banks specifically, or the banking system generally, could impact where customers choose to maintain deposits, which could materially adversely impact the Developer’s and Homebuilder’s liquidity and access loan funding capacity, and results in an impact to operations. Similar impacts to the development industry have occurred in the past. THE REMAINDER OF THIS PAGE IS LEFT BLANK INTENTIONALLY. 63 Competition The housing industry in the Dallas-Fort Worth area is very competitive, and none of the Developer, the Homebuilder, the City, the City’s Financial Advisor, or the Underwriter can give any assurance that the building programs which are planned throughout the District will be completed in accordance with the Developer’s and Homebuilder’s expectations. The successful development of the land within Improvement Area #1 of the District, the success of the Development, and the sale of residential units therein, once such homes are built, may be affected by unforeseen changes in general economic conditions, fluctuations in the real estate market, and other factors beyond the control of the Developer and the Homebuilder. The competitive position of the Developer and the Homebuilder in the sale of single-family residential units is affected by most of the factors discussed in this section, and such competitive position is directly related to maintenance of market values in Improvement Area #1 of the District. There can be no assurances that other similar projects will not be developed in the future or that existing projects will not be upgraded or otherwise become able to compete with the Development. Below is a list of competitive projects in the area as of August 1, 2023. Project Name Developer Proximity to District Number of Units Number of Units Remaining Prices Lot Sizes/Types Avery Pointe Lennar 0.3 miles 568 15 $373,999 - $484,999 50’ and 65’ West Crossing Bloomfield 0.9 miles 1,022 20 $364,990 - $575,990 50’ and 65’ Anna Ranch Gehan 3.6 miles 106 27 $359,990 - $599,990 55’ and 70’ Source: The Developer Availability of Utilities The progress of development within Improvement Area #1 of the District is also dependent upon the City providing an adequate water and wastewater service to the Development. If the City fails to provide water and wastewater services to the property in the District, the Development cannot be substantially completed, and the Developer will not be able to construct homes. See “THE CITY – Water and Wastewater.” Dependence Upon Developer and Homebuilder The Developer and/or the Homebuilder will own some or all of the Assessed Property in Improvement Area #1 of the District until all homes are sold to homebuyers, currently expected to be complete in the third quarter of 2024. As owner of most of the Assessed Property on the date the next annual installment of the Assessments become due on January 31, 2024, the Developer and the Homebuilder, together, will have the obligation for payment of most of such annual installments. The ability of the Developer and/or the Homebuilder to make full and timely payment of the Assessments will directly affect the ability of the City to meet its debt service obligations with respect to the Bonds. The only assets of the Developer are land within the District, related permits and development rights, two unrelated land parcels and undeveloped land parcels in Collin County, and minor operating accounts. The source of funding for future land development activities and infrastructure construction to develop the lots proposed for Improvement Area #1 of the District also consists of proceeds from the Bonds and proceeds of lot sales to the Homebuilder, as well as possible additional loans from the MCI PIF II Fund and the Development Lender. There can be no assurances given as to the financial ability of the Developer to advance any funds to the City to supplement revenues from the Assessments if necessary, or as to whether the Developer will advance such funds. See “THE DEVELOPMENT – Expected Build-Out and Home Prices in the Development.” Moreover, the City will pay to the Developer or the Developer’s designee, from proceeds of the Bonds, for project costs actually incurred in developing and constructing the Improvement Area #1 Improvements, in accordance with the Reimbursement Agreement and the Indenture. See “THE IMPROVEMENT AREA #1 64 IMPROVEMENTS – General,” “THE DEVELOPMENT –Lot Purchase Contract,” and “– Reimbursement Agreement,” “APPENDIX B – Form of Indenture,” and “APPENDIX G – Reimbursement Agreement.” To the best of Megatel’s knowledge, it has been delinquent in the payment of assessments levied on random lots in various PIDs. In such instances, all of the delinquencies were paid promptly after discovery (in the case of oversight) or in conjunction with the sale of the homes (when homes sales were imminent). All penalties accruing on the assessments were paid without objection. In a separate instance, in 2023 AnaCapri Laguna Azure, LLC (“ACLA”), an affiliate of the Developer, did not timely pay the assessments levied by the City of Anna, Texas, on ACLA’s undeveloped land in the AnaCapri Public Improvement District. Such assessments were levied to reimburse ACLA for the costs of public improvements to be constructed by ACLA pursuant to a reimbursement agreement to be entered into between ACLA and the City of Anna. At the time such assessments were due (January 31, 2023), the City of Anna had not entered into a reimbursement agreement with ACLA. On advice of ACLA’s legal counsel, ACLA did not pay such assessments until ACLA was comfortable that the City of Anna was going to enter into the reimbursement agreement, which was after the due date. At that time, ACLA paid the assessments and all associated penalties without objection. Affiliate Litigation The following is a summary of certain recent and pending litigation filed by or against affiliates of the Developer, the Homebuilder, and the Ipour brothers: CADG Erwin Farms, LLC et al. v. Aaron Ipour; Zach Ipour; et al. (Civil Action No. 3:22–cv–02896-M – Northern District of Texas, Dallas Division). In December 2022, a group of eight real estate development companies, each affiliated with Mehrdad Moayedi (“Moayedi”), a Dallas-based real estate developer, filed a federal civil Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO) lawsuit against the Afzalipour brothers, MCI, and various funds created by MCI, including the MCI PIF II Fund. See “THE DEVELOPER AND THE HOMEBUILDER – General Development Financing by Megatel.” The Defendants filed a motion to dismiss on March 6, 2023. The Plaintiff’s response was filed on April 26, 2023. The Defendants filed a reply in support of the motion to dismiss on May 10, 2023. On July 20, 2023, the court issued an order staying discovery pending the court’s decision on the Defendant’s motion to dismiss and requiring Plaintiffs to file a RICO case statement by August 3, 2023. The Plaintiffs filed the RICO case statement on August 3, 2023, and on August 7, the Defendants filed a motion for leave to file a supplemental brief in support of the motion to dismiss and in response to Plaintiff’s RICO case statement. The court granted the Defendant’s motion on August 10, 2023, and the supplemental brief has been filed. The Afzalipour brothers believe that the foregoing suit was filed in retaliation for an ongoing federal civil RICO suit filed by Megatel against Moayedi and various affiliated entities in 2020. Trial in that suit is set for May 2024. Megatel Homes, LLC, et. Al v. Crystal Lagoons U.S. Corp. (Cause No. 3:22-cv-01715 – Northern District of Texas, Dallas Division). During the planning stages for the Laguna, Megatel had discussions with Crystal Lagoons U.S. Corp. (“Crystal Lagoons”) regarding design and construction of the Laguna. As part of those discussions, Megatel and Crystal Lagoons signed a Non-Disclosure Agreement (“NDA”). Megatel did not choose Crystal Lagoons to design and construct the Laguna. In 2021, Crystal Lagoons proceeded with pre-litigation discovery against Megatel, alleging that Megatel violated the NDA and misused Crystal Lagoons’ name and confidential information. In August 2022, Megatel filed suit against Crystal Lagoons in federal court seeking a declaratory judgment that (i) Megatel did not breach the NDA, and (ii) did not misuse Crystal Lagoons’ name or confidential information. Crystal Lagoons’ pre-litigation discovery action was non-suited without prejudice following the filing of the declaratory judgment action by Megatel. Crystal Lagoons filed an answer to the declaratory judgment action and asserted two counterclaims similar to those described above. Megatel filed a Motion to Dismiss the counterclaim for misappropriation. On August 10, 2023, the court dismissed without prejudice Crystal Lagoon’s misappropriation claim against Megatel. Crystal 65 Lagoons may file an amended complaint within 28 days defining an allegedly misappropriated product that is not a trademark. Mediation has been ordered on or before December 1, 2023. Trial is scheduled for April 17, 2024. CADG Erwin Farms, LLC et al. v. Megatel Homes III, LLC, Aaron Ipour, and Zach Ipour (Cause No. DC-22-02108 – Dallas County, Texas). On February 22, 2022, six land development companies filed a petition against Megatel Homes III, LLC (“Megatel III”), and its two co-founders, alleging that Megatel III violated Chapter 12 of the Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code by fraudulently filing lis pendens notices against several properties. Plaintiffs and Megatel III had entered into several contracts pursuant to which Plaintiffs agreed to sell certain lots in six different properties to Megatel III, upon which Megatel III would build homes. Litigation ensued regarding those contracts and Megatel III filed lis pendens notices as to the lots at issue to protect their rights. In this lawsuit, Plaintiffs contend that the lis pendens notices were fraudulent. Plaintiffs seek to recover the greater of (1) Plaintiff’s actual damages or (2) $10,000 per violation for each of the 15 alleged violations. Plaintiffs are also seeking attorneys’ fees. The court granted Megatel III’s motion to sever the case into six different cases related to each of the six properties at issue. Megatel III is currently awaiting Plaintiffs’ refiling of five of those suits and expects such suits to be resolved in arbitration. The sixth suit continues with the original cause number. A hearing was held on Megatel III’s motion to abate on April 20, 2023. However, the records of the court indicate that the case is closed. MM CCM 13MC, LLC v. Megatel Homes, LLC (Cause No. 429-00579-2022 – Collin County, Texas). On January 31, 2022, MM CCM 13MC, LLC filed a petition against Megatel Homes, LLC, alleging claims for breach of contract, declaratory relief, and quiet title. Plaintiff’s claims stem from a dispute concerning the parties’ rights and obligations under a right of first refusal agreement. Plaintiff claims that Megatel failed to exercise its right of first refusal to purchase vacant lots in Plano, Texas, and is preventing Plaintiff from selling those lots to third parties. Plaintiff seeks declaratory relief, including a declaration that (1) Megatel waived its right of first refusal, and (2) Plaintiff owns the lots at issue free and clear of any claim by Megatel. Plaintiff is also seeking attorneys’ fees. Plaintiff is not seeking monetary damages. Megatel disputes these allegations and has sought discovery from Plaintiff which may be dispositive of the legal dispute. Plaintiff’s Motion for Summary Judgment is pending. Trial was originally scheduled for July 17, 2023. However, based on evidence presented by Megatel Homes, the court (i) denied Plaintiff’s motion for summary judgment, and (ii) continued the trial until February 2024 to allow Megatel Homes to add VM Fund I, LLC, successor in interest to Plaintiff with respect to the property, as an additional party. On July 21, 2023, Megatel filed its Original Counterclaim and Crossclaim and Application for Temporary and Permanent Injunction against 13MC, VM Fund, and MM CCM 48M, LLC (“48M”), an affiliate of 13MC and VM Fund, for breach of contract, declaratory relief, and temporary and permanent injunctions. Megatel Homes III, LLC v. MM Northlake Phase 2–3, LLC, et al. (Cause No. 21-8109-431 – Denton County, Texas). On September 17, 2021, Megatel III filed a petition against MM Northlake Phase 2-3, LLC. Megatel III later added Taylor Morrison of Texas, Inc. as a defendant. Megatel III alleges that MM Northlake breached a lot takedown contract and that defendants engaged in a fraudulent transfer of lots in violation of the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act. On November 18, 2021, Taylor Morrison of Texas filed a petition against Megatel III alleging that Megatel III filed fraudulent lis pendens notices violation of Chapter 12 of the Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code regarding lots owned by Taylor Morrison. Taylor Morrison is seeking the following forms of relief: a declaration concerning the parties’ rights to the lots at issue, damages including $10,000 for each of Megatel III’s 20 alleged violations of Chapter 12, exemplary damages, and attorneys’ fees. The case was dismissed on January 13, 2023, for want of prosecution. CADG Mercer MM Holdings, LLC, et. al v. Megatel Homes III, LLC (Cause No. DC-19-18033 – Dallas County, Texas). This suit was originally filed by Megatel III in November 2019 as a breach of contract suit. In 66 April 2020, Defendants filed counterclaims for judgment on a promissory note and breach of contract. In April 2023, the remaining parties went to trial on the sole remaining claim for judgment of the promissory note. The jury returned a verdict in favor of Megatel III, finding that no damages had been sustained by the lender. On July 13, 2023, a hearing by submission was conducted regarding plaintiff’s motion for attorneys’ fees. At a hearing held on August 18, 2023, the court denied plaintiff’s motion for sanctions against Megatel III and its counsel. Rainier Medical Investors LLC & RMI River Walk Investors LP v. Centurion Riverwalk, LLC, et al. (Cause No. 19-0111-292 – Denton County, Texas). Plaintiff Rainier Medical Investors LLC and Plaintiff RMI River Walk Investors, LP (“Rainier Plaintiffs”) brought claims against Defendant Centurion Riverwalk, LLC (“Centurion”) and Defendant 2M Riverwalk, LLC (“2M,” together with Centurion, “Rainier Defendants”) and alleged various causes of action against other defendants, including Megatel Lakeshores TH, LLC (“Megatel TH”). Megatel TH asserted a cross-petition against Rainier Defendants and Third-Party Defendant Moayedi for statutory fraud, fraudulent inducement, and breach of contract (“Cross-Claims”). The case was dismissed for want of prosecution on September 30, 2022. Megatel Homes III, LLC v. Wilbow-Windhaven Development Corporation (Cause No. 18-4646-362 – Denton County, Texas). On May 25, 2018, Megatel III filed a petition against Wilbow-Windhaven Development Corporation, Centurion Acquisitions, L.P., and CADG Windhaven, L.P., asserting claims for breach of contract, fraud, indemnity, declaratory judgment, and attorneys’ fees. On June 25, 2018, Wilbow-Windhaven filed counterclaims against Megatel III for breach of contract, and a declaratory judgment regarding the parties’ rights and obligations under the contract at issue. The dispute relates to the parties’ performance under a lot takedown agreement pursuant to which Wilbow- Windhaven was obligated to develop certain real estate parcels in accordance with certain specified standards and to sell those lots to Megatel III. In addition to declaratory relief, Wilbow-Windhaven seeks an unspecified amount of damages in excess of $1 million, attorneys’ fees, and pre- and post-judgment interest. Due to a lack of activity in the case, the court will hold a dismissal hearing on September 15, 2023. No assurances can be given as to the result of the foregoing litigation or the impact, if any, of such result on one or more of the Developer, the Homebuilder, the MCI PIF II Fund, their principals and affiliates, and the Developer’s ability to continue funding the Development. TAX MATTERS Opinion On the date of initial delivery of the Bonds, McCall, Parkhurst & Horton L.L.P., Dallas, Texas, Bond Counsel to the City, will render its opinion that, in accordance with statutes, regulations, published rulings and court decisions existing on the date thereof (“Existing Law”), (1) interest on the Bonds for federal income tax purposes will be excludable from the “gross income” of the holders thereof and (2) the Bonds will not be treated as “specified private activity bonds” the interest on which would be included as an alternative minimum tax preference item under section 57(a)(5) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”). Except as stated above, Bond Counsel to the City will express no opinion as to any other federal, state, or local tax consequences of the purchase, ownership or disposition of the Bonds. See “APPENDIX D – FORM OF OPINION OF BOND COUNSEL.” In rendering its opinion, Bond Counsel to the City will rely upon (a) certain information and representations of the City, including information and representations contained in the City’s federal tax certificate, and (b) covenants of the City contained in the Bond documents relating to certain matters, including arbitrage and the use of the proceeds of the Bonds and the property financed or refinanced therewith. Failure by the City to observe the aforementioned representations or covenants could cause the interest on the Bonds to become taxable retroactively to the date of issuance. The Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder contain a number of requirements that must be satisfied subsequent to the issuance of the Bonds in order for interest on the Bonds to be, and to remain, excludable from gross income for federal income tax purposes. Failure to comply with such requirements may cause interest on 67 the Bonds to be included in gross income retroactively to the date of issuance of the Bonds. The opinion of Bond Counsel to the City is conditioned on compliance by the City with such requirements, and Bond Counsel to the City has not been retained to monitor compliance with these requirements subsequent to the issuance of the Bonds. Bond Counsel’s opinion represents its legal judgment based upon its review of Existing Law and the reliance on the aforementioned information, representations and covenants. Bond Counsel’s opinion is not a guarantee of a result. Existing Law is subject to change by the Congress and to subsequent judicial and administrative interpretation by the courts and the Department of the Treasury. There can be no assurance that Existing Law or the interpretation thereof will not be changed in a manner which would adversely affect the tax treatment of the purchase, ownership or disposition of the Bonds. A ruling was not sought from the Internal Revenue Service by the City with respect to the Bonds or the property financed or refinanced with proceeds of the Bonds. No assurances can be given as to whether the Internal Revenue Service will commence an audit of the Bonds, or as to whether the Internal Revenue Service would agree with the opinion of Bond Counsel. If an Internal Revenue Service audit is commenced, under current procedures the Internal Revenue Service is likely to treat the City as the taxpayer and the Bondholders may have no right to participate in such procedure. No additional interest will be paid upon any determination of taxability. Federal Income Tax Accounting Treatment of Original Issue Discount The initial public offering price to be paid for one or more maturities of the Bonds may be less than the principal amount thereof or one or more periods for the payment of interest on the bonds may not be equal to the accrual period or be in excess of one year (the “Original Issue Discount Bonds”). In such event, the difference between (i) the “stated redemption price at maturity” of each Original Issue Discount Bond, and (ii) the initial offering price to the public of such Original Issue Discount Bond would constitute original issue discount. The “stated redemption price at maturity” means the sum of all payments to be made on the bonds less the amount of all periodic interest payments. Periodic interest payments are payments which are made during equal accrual periods (or during any unequal period if it is the initial or final period) and which are made during accrual periods which do not exceed one year. Under existing law, any owner who has purchased such Original Issue Discount Bond in the initial public offering is entitled to exclude from gross income (as defined in section 61 of the Code) an amount of income with respect to such Original Issue Discount Bond equal to that portion of the amount of such original issue discount allocable to the accrual period. For a discussion of certain collateral federal tax consequences, see discussion set forth below. In the event of the redemption, sale or other taxable disposition of such Original Issue Discount Bond prior to stated maturity, however, the amount realized by such owner in excess of the basis of such Original Issue Discount Bond in the hands of such owner (adjusted upward by the portion of the original issue discount allocable to the period for which such Original Issue Discount Bond was held by such initial owner) is includable in gross income. Under existing law, the original issue discount on each Original Issue Discount Bond is accrued daily to the stated maturity thereof (in amounts calculated as described below for each six-month period ending on the date before the semiannual anniversary dates of the date of the Bonds and ratably within each such six-month period) and the accrued amount is added to an initial owner’s basis for such Original Issue Discount Bond for purposes of determining the amount of gain or loss recognized by such owner upon the redemption, sale or other disposition thereof. The amount to be added to basis for each accrual period is equal to (a) the sum of the issue price and the amount of original issue discount accrued in prior periods multiplied by the yield to stated maturity (determined on the basis of compounding at the close of each accrual period and properly adjusted for the length of the accrual period) less (b) the amounts payable as current interest during such accrual period on such Original Issue Discount Bond. The federal income tax consequences of the purchase, ownership, redemption, sale or other disposition of Original Issue Discount Bonds which are not purchased in the initial offering at the initial offering price may be determined according to rules which differ from those described above. All owners of Original Issue Discount 68 Bonds should consult their own tax advisors with respect to the determination for federal, state and local income tax purposes of the treatment of interest accrued upon redemption, sale or other disposition of such Original Issue Discount Bonds and with respect to the federal, state, local and foreign tax consequences of the purchase, ownership, redemption, sale or other disposition of such Original Issue Discount Bonds. Collateral Federal Income Tax Consequences The following discussion is a summary of certain collateral federal income tax consequences resulting from the purchase, ownership or disposition of the Bonds. This discussion is based on existing statutes, regulations, published rulings and court decisions, all of which are subject to change or modification, retroactively. The following discussion is applicable to investors, other than those who are subject to special provisions of the Code, such as financial institutions, property and casualty insurance companies, life insurance companies, individual recipients of Social Security or Railroad Retirement benefits, individuals allowed an earned income credit, certain S corporations with Subchapter C earnings and profits, foreign corporations subject to the branch profits tax, taxpayers qualifying for the health insurance premium assistance credit and taxpayers who may be deemed to have incurred or continued indebtedness to purchase tax-exempt obligations. THE DISCUSSION CONTAINED HEREIN MAY NOT BE EXHAUSTIVE. INVESTORS, INCLUDING THOSE WHO ARE SUBJECT TO SPECIAL PROVISIONS OF THE CODE, SHOULD CONSULT THEIR OWN TAX ADVISORS AS TO THE TAX TREATMENT WHICH MAY BE ANTICIPATED TO RESULT FROM THE PURCHASE, OWNERSHIP AND DISPOSITION OF TAX-EXEMPT OBLIGATIONS BEFORE DETERMINING WHETHER TO PURCHASE THE BONDS. Interest on the Bonds may be includable in certain corporation’s “adjusted financial statement income” determined under section 56A of the Code to calculate the alternative minimum tax imposed by section 55 of the Code. Under section 6012 of the Code, holders of tax-exempt obligations, such as the Bonds, may be required to disclose interest received or accrued during each taxable year on their returns of federal income taxation. Section 1276 of the Code provides for ordinary income tax treatment of gain recognized upon the disposition of a tax-exempt obligation, such as the Bonds, if such obligation was acquired at a “market discount” and if the fixed maturity of such obligation is equal to, or exceeds, one year from the date of issue. Such treatment applies to “market discount bonds” to the extent such gain does not exceed the accrued market discount of such bonds; although for this purpose, a de minimis amount of market discount is ignored. A “market discount bond” is one which is acquired by the holder at a purchase price which is less than the stated redemption price at maturity or, in the case of a bond issued at an original issue discount, the “revised issue price” (i.e., the issue price plus accrued original issue discount). The “accrued market discount” is the amount which bears the same ratio to the market discount as the number of days during which the holder holds the obligation bears to the number of days between the acquisition date and the final maturity date. State, Local And Foreign Taxes Investors should consult their own tax advisors concerning the tax implications of the purchase, ownership or disposition of the Bonds under applicable state or local laws. Foreign investors should also consult their own tax advisors regarding the tax consequences unique to investors who are not United States persons. Information Reporting and Backup Withholding Subject to certain exceptions, information reports describing interest income, including original issue discount, with respect to the Bonds will be sent to each registered holder and to the Internal Revenue Service. Payments of interest and principal may be subject to backup withholding under section 3406 of the Code if a recipient of the payments fails to furnish to the payor such owner's social security number or other taxpayer identification number ("TIN"), furnishes an incorrect TIN, or otherwise fails to establish an exemption from the backup withholding tax. Any amounts so withheld would be allowed as a credit against the recipient’s federal 69 income tax. Special rules apply to partnerships, estates and trusts, and in certain circumstances, and in respect of foreign investors, certifications as to foreign status and other matters may be required to be provided by partners and beneficiaries thereof. Future and Proposed Legislation Tax legislation, administrative actions taken by tax authorities, or court decisions, whether at the Federal or state level, may adversely affect the tax-exempt status of interest on the Bonds under Federal or state law and could affect the market price or marketability of the Bonds. Any such proposal could limit the value of certain deductions and exclusions, including the exclusion for tax-exempt interest. The likelihood of any such proposal being enacted cannot be predicted. Prospective purchasers of the Bonds should consult their own tax advisors regarding the foregoing matters. LEGAL MATTERS Legal Proceedings Delivery of the Bonds will be accompanied by (i) the unqualified approving legal opinion of the Attorney General to the effect that the Bonds are valid and legally binding obligations of the City under the Constitution and laws of the State, payable from the Trust Estate and, (ii) based upon their examination of a transcript of certified proceedings relating to the issuance and sale of the Bonds, the legal opinion of Bond Counsel, to a like effect. McCall, Parkhurst & Horton L.L.P., serves as Bond Counsel to the City. Winstead PC serves as Underwriter’s Counsel. The legal fees paid to Bond Counsel and Underwriter’s Counsel are contingent upon the sale and delivery of the Bonds. Legal Opinions The City will furnish the Underwriter a transcript of certain certified proceedings incident to the authorization and issuance of the Bonds. Such transcript will include a certified copy of the approving opinion of the Attorney General of Texas, as recorded in the Bond Register of the Comptroller of Public Accounts of the State, to the effect that the Bonds are valid and binding special obligations of the City. The City will also furnish the legal opinion of Bond Counsel, to the effect that, based upon an examination of such transcript, the Bonds are valid and binding special obligations of the City under the Constitution and laws of the State. The legal opinion of Bond Counsel will further state that the Bonds, including principal thereof and interest thereon, are payable from and secured by a pledge of and lien on the Pledged Revenues. Bond Counsel will also provide a legal opinion to the effect that interest on the Bonds will be excludable from gross income for federal income tax purposes under Section 103(a) of the Code, subject to the matters described above under the caption “TAX MATTERS,” including the alternative minimum tax consequences for corporations. A copy of the opinion of Bond Counsel is attached hereto as “APPENDIX D – FORM OF OPINION OF BOND COUNSEL.” Except as noted below, Bond Counsel did not take part in the preparation of the Limited Offering Memorandum, and such firm has not assumed any responsibility with respect thereto or undertaken independently to verify any of the information contained therein, except that, in its capacity as Bond Counsel, such firm has reviewed the information describing the Bonds in the Limited Offering Memorandum under the captions or subcaptions “PLAN OF FINANCE – The Bonds”, “DESCRIPTION OF THE BONDS,” “SECURITY FOR THE BONDS” (except for the last paragraph under the subcaption “General”), “ASSESSMENT PROCEDURES” (except for the subcaptions “Assessment Methodology” and “Assessment Amounts”), “THE DISTRICT,” “TAX MATTERS,” “LEGAL MATTERS – Legal Proceedings,” “LEGAL MATTERS – Legal Opinions,” “SUITABILITY FOR INVESTMENT,” “CONTINUING DISCLOSURE” (except for the subcaption “The City’s Compliance with Prior Undertakings”), “REGISTRATION AND QUALIFICATION OF BONDS FOR SALE,” “LEGAL INVESTMENTS AND ELIGIBILITY TO SECURE PUBLIC FUNDS IN TEXAS” and APPENDIX A and such firm is of the opinion that the information relating to the Bonds, the Bond Ordinance, the Assessment Ordinance and the Indenture contained therein fairly and accurately describes the laws and legal issues addressed therein and, with respect to the Bonds, such information conforms to the Bond Ordinance, the Assessment Ordinance and the Indenture. 70 The various legal opinions to be delivered concurrently with the delivery of the Bonds express the professional judgment of the attorneys rendering the opinions as to the legal issues explicitly addressed therein. In rendering a legal opinion, the attorney does not become an insurer or guarantor of that expression of professional judgment, of the transaction opined upon, or of the future performance of the parties to the transaction. Nor does the rendering of an opinion guarantee the outcome of any legal dispute that may arise out of the transaction. Litigation – The City At the time of delivery and payment for the Bonds, the City will certify that, except as disclosed herein, there is no action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or investigation, at law or in equity, before or by any court, regulatory agency, public board or body, pending or overtly threatened against the City affecting the existence of the District, or seeking to restrain or to enjoin the sale or delivery of the Bonds, the application of the proceeds thereof, in accordance with the Indenture, or the collection or application of Assessments securing the Bonds, or in any way contesting or affecting the validity or enforceability of the Bonds, the Assessment Ordinance, the Indenture, any action of the City contemplated by any of the said documents, or the collection or application of the Pledged Revenues, or in any way contesting the completeness or accuracy of this Limited Offering Memorandum or any amendment or supplement thereto, or contesting the powers of the City or its authority with respect to the Bonds or any action of the City contemplated by any documents relating to the Bonds. Litigation – The Developer At the time of delivery and payment for the Bonds, the Developer will certify that, except as disclosed herein, there is no action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or investigation, at law or in equity, before or by any court, regulatory body, public board or body pending, or, to the best knowledge of the Developer, threatened against or affecting the Developer wherein an unfavorable decision, ruling or finding would have a material adverse effect on the financial condition or operations of the Developer or its officers or would adversely affect (1) the transactions contemplated by, or the validity or enforceability of, the Bonds, the Indenture, the Bond Ordinance, the Service and Assessment Plan, the Development Agreement, or the Bond Placement Agreement, or otherwise described in this Limited Offering Memorandum, or (2) the tax-exempt status of interest on the Bonds (individually or in the aggregate, a “Material Adverse Effect”). Additionally, Mr. Mehrdad Moayedi and his affiliated entities have been and are parties to pending and threatened litigation related to their commercial and real estate development activities. Such litigation occurs in the ordinary course of business and is not expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. For a description of litigation and other matters related to affiliated entities of the Developer, see “BONDHOLDERS’ RISKS – Developer Principal Financial Relationships and Other Matters Relating to Developer Affiliates.” SUITABILITY FOR INVESTMENT Investment in the Bonds poses certain economic risks. See “BONDHOLDERS’ RISKS”. The Bonds are not rated by any nationally recognized municipal securities rating service. No dealer, broker, salesman or other person has been authorized by the City or the Underwriter to give any information or make any representations, other than those contained in this Limited Offering Memorandum, and, if given or made, such other information or representations must not be relied upon as having been authorized by either of the foregoing. Additional information will be made available to each prospective investor, including the benefit of a site visit to the City and the opportunity to ask questions of the Developer, as such prospective investor deems necessary in order to make an informed decision with respect to the purchase of the Bonds. ENFORCEABILITY OF REMEDIES The remedies available to the owners of the Bonds upon an event of default under the Indenture are in many respects dependent upon judicial actions, which are often subject to discretion and delay. See “BONDHOLDERS’ RISKS – Bondholders’ Remedies and Bankruptcy.” Under existing constitutional and statutory law and judicial decisions, including the federal bankruptcy code, the remedies specified by the Indenture and the Bonds may not be readily available or may be limited. The various legal opinions to be delivered concurrently with 71 the delivery of the Bonds will be qualified, as to the enforceability of the remedies provided in the various legal instruments, by limitations imposed by governmental immunity, bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency or other similar laws affecting the rights of creditors and enacted before or after such delivery. NO RATING No application for a rating on the Bonds has been made to any rating agency, nor is there any reason to believe that the City would have been successful in obtaining an investment grade rating for the Bonds had application been made. CONTINUING DISCLOSURE The City Pursuant to Rule 15c2-12 of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Rule”), the City and Regions Bank (in such capacity, the “Dissemination Agent”) have entered into a Continuing Disclosure Agreement (the “City Disclosure Agreement”) for the benefit of the Owners of the Bonds (including owners of beneficial interests in the Bonds), to provide, by certain dates prescribed in the City Disclosure Agreement, certain financial information and operating data relating to the City (collectively, the “City Reports”). The specific nature of the information to be contained in the City Reports is set forth in “APPENDIX D-1 – Form of City Disclosure Agreement.” Under certain circumstances, the failure of the City to comply with its obligations under the City Disclosure Agreement constitutes an event of default thereunder. Such a default will not constitute an event of default under the Indenture, but such event of default under the City Disclosure Agreement would allow the Owners of the Bonds (including owners of beneficial interests in the Bonds) to bring an action for specific performance. The City has agreed to update information and to provide notices of certain specified events only as provided in the City Disclosure Agreement. The City has not agreed to provide other information that may be relevant or material to a complete presentation of its financial results of operations, condition, or prospects or agreed to update any information that is provided in this Limited Offering Memorandum, except as provided in the City Disclosure Agreement. The City makes no representation or warranty concerning such information or concerning its usefulness to a decision to invest in or sell the Bonds at any future date. The City disclaims any contractual or tort liability for damages resulting in whole or in part from any breach of the City Disclosure Agreement or from any statement made pursuant to the City Disclosure Agreement. The City’s Compliance with Prior Undertakings The City believes it has complied in all material respects with its continuing disclosure undertakings pursuant to the Rule during the past 5 years. The Developer The Developer, the Administrator, and the Dissemination Agent have entered into a Continuing Disclosure Agreement (the “Developer Disclosure Agreement”) for the benefit of the Owners of the Bonds (including owners of beneficial interests in the Bonds), to provide, by certain dates prescribed in the Developer Disclosure Agreement, certain information regarding the Development and the Improvement Area #1 Improvements (collectively, the “Developer Reports”). The specific nature of the information to be contained in the Developer Reports is set forth in “APPENDIX D-2 – Form of Developer Disclosure Agreement.” Under certain circumstances, the failure of the Developer or the Administrator to comply with its obligations under the Developer Disclosure Agreement constitutes an event of default thereunder. Such a default will not constitute an event of default under the Indenture, but such event of default under the Developer Disclosure Agreement would allow the Owners of the Bonds (including owners of beneficial interests in the Bonds) to bring an action for specific performance. The Developer Disclosure Agreement is a voluntary agreement made for the benefit of the holders of the Bonds and is not entered into pursuant to the Rule. The Developer has agreed to provide (i) certain updated information to the Administrator, which consultant will prepare and provide such updated information in report form and (ii) notices of certain specified events, only as 72 provided in the Developer Disclosure Agreement. The Developer has not agreed to provide other information that may be relevant or material to a complete presentation of its financial results of operations, condition, or prospects or agreed to update any information that is provided in this Limited Offering Memorandum, except as provided in the Developer Disclosure Agreement. The Developer makes no representation or warranty concerning such information or concerning its usefulness to a decision to invest in or sell the Bonds at any future date. The Developer disclaims any contractual or tort liability for damages resulting in whole or in part from any breach of the Developer Disclosure Agreement or from any statement made pursuant to the Developer Disclosure Agreement. The Developer’s Compliance with Prior Undertakings The Developer has not previously entered into a continuing disclosure agreement in accordance with the Rule. The owners of the Developer, in their capacity as owners of another developer entity, entered into their first continuing disclosure agreement in accordance with the Rule in July 2023. To the best of Megatel’s knowledge, Centurion American Development Group (“Centurion American”) has developed all of the PIDs wherein Megatel has purchased lots. In no such instance has Megatel ever entered into a “continuing disclosure agreement” relative to the issuance of PID Bonds. Further, Megatel has never directly entered into any agreement regarding a PID either (i) assigning to Megatel any continuing disclosure obligations, or (ii) contractually obligating Megatel to provide information regarding the velocity of home sales, the sales price of homes, or any similar information. Megatel is aware that its affiliates are now developing lots in several PIDs and each affiliate will be undertaking certain continuing disclosure obligations relative to the velocity of home sales, home sales prices, and related information. Megatel will be providing this information to its affiliates so that each affiliate can timely comply with its continuing disclosure obligations. UNDERWRITING FMSbonds, Inc. (the “Underwriter”) has agreed to purchase the Bonds from the City at a purchase price of $ (the par amount of the Bonds, less an underwriting discount of $ , which includes Underwriter’s Counsel’s fee of $______). The Underwriter’s obligations are subject to certain conditions precedent and if obligated to purchase any of the Bonds the Underwriter will be obligated to purchase all of the Bonds. The Bonds may be offered and sold by the Underwriter at prices lower than the initial offering prices stated on the inside cover page hereof, and such initial offering prices may be changed from time to time by the Underwriter. REGISTRATION AND QUALIFICATION OF BONDS FOR SALE The sale of the Bonds has not been registered under the federal Securities Act of 1933, as amended, in reliance upon the exemption provided thereunder by Section 3(a)(2); and the Bonds have not been qualified under the Securities Act of Texas in reliance upon various exemptions contained therein; nor have the Bonds been qualified under the securities acts of any other jurisdiction. The City assumes no responsibility for qualification of the Bonds under the securities laws of any jurisdiction in which the Bonds may be sold, assigned, pledged, hypothecated, or otherwise transferred. This disclaimer of responsibility for qualification for sale or other disposition of the Bonds shall not be construed as an interpretation of any kind with regard to the availability of any exemption from securities registration provisions. LEGAL INVESTMENT AND ELIGIBILITY TO SECURE PUBLIC FUNDS IN TEXAS The PID Act and Section 1201.041 of the Public Security Procedures Act (Chapter 1201, Texas Government Code, as amended) provide that the Bonds are negotiable instruments and investment securities governed by Chapter 8, Texas Business and Commerce Code, as amended, and are legal and authorized investments for insurance companies, fiduciaries, trustees, or for the sinking funds of municipalities or other political subdivisions or public agencies of the State. With respect to investment in the Bonds by municipalities or other political subdivisions or public agencies of the State, the PFIA requires that the Bonds be assigned a rating of at least “A” or its equivalent as to investment quality by a national rating agency. See “NO RATING” above. In addition, the PID Act and various provisions of the Texas Finance Code provide that, subject to a prudent investor standard, 73 the Bonds are legal investments for state banks, savings banks, trust companies with capital of one million dollars or more, and savings and loan associations. The Bonds are eligible to secure deposits to the extent of their market value. No review by the City has been made of the laws in other states to determine whether the Bonds are legal investments for various institutions in those states. No representation is made that the Bonds will be acceptable to public entities to secure their deposits or acceptable to such institutions for investment purposes. The City made no investigation of other laws, rules, regulations or investment criteria which might apply to such institutions or entities or which might limit the suitability of the Bonds for any of the foregoing purposes or limit the authority of such institutions or entities to purchase or invest in the Bonds for such purposes. INVESTMENTS The City invests its funds in investments authorized by Texas law in accordance with investment policies approved by the City Council. Both Texas law and the City’s investment policies are subject to change. Under Texas law, the City is authorized to invest in (1) obligations of the United States or its agencies and instrumentalities, including letters of credit; (2) direct obligations of the State or its agencies and instrumentalities; (3) collateralized mortgage obligations directly issued by a federal agency or instrumentality of the United States, the underlying security for which is guaranteed by an agency or instrumentality of the United States; (4) other obligations, the principal and interest of which are unconditionally guaranteed or insured by or backed by the full faith and credit of, the State or the United States or their respective agencies and instrumentalities, including obligations that are fully guaranteed or insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or by the explicit full faith and credit of the United States; (5) obligations of states, agencies, counties, cities, and other political subdivisions of any state rated as to investment quality by a nationally recognized investment rating firm not less than A or its equivalent; (6) bonds issued, assumed or guaranteed by the State of Israel; (7) interest-bearing banking deposits that are guaranteed or insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or its successor or the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund or its successor, (8) certificates of deposit and share certificates (i) issued by or through an institution that either has its main office or a branch office in the State, and are guaranteed or insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or the National Credit Union Insurance Fund, or are secured as to principal by obligations described in the clauses (1) through (6) or in any other manner and amount provided by law for City deposits, or (ii) where (a) the funds are invested by the City through (I) a broker that has its main office or a branch office in the State and is selected from a list adopted by the City as required by law or (II) a depository institution that has its main office or a branch office in the State that is selected by the City; (b) the broker or the depository institution selected by the City arranges for the deposit of the funds in certificates of deposit in one or more federally insured depository institutions, wherever located, for the account of the City; (c) the full amount of the principal and accrued interest of each of the certificates of deposit is insured by the United States or an instrumentality of the United States, and (d) the City appoints the depository institution selected under (a) above, a custodian as described by Section 2257.041(d) of the Texas Government Code, or a clearing broker-dealer registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission and operating pursuant to Securities and Exchange Commission Rule 15c3-3 (17 C.F.R.

The City may invest in such obligations directly or through government investment pools that invest solely in such obligations provided that the pools are rated no lower than “AAA” or “AAA-m” or an equivalent by at least one nationally recognized rating service.

Each Investment Strategy Statement will describe its objectives concerning: (1) suitability of investment type, (2) preservation and safety of principal, (3) liquidity, (4) marketability of each investment, (5) diversification of the portfolio, and (6) yield. Under Texas law, City investments must be made “with judgment and care, under prevailing circumstances, that a person of prudence, discretion, and intelligence would exercise in the management of the person’s own affairs, not for speculation, but for investment, considering the probable safety of capital and the probable income to be derived.” At least quarterly the investment officers of the City shall submit an investment report detailing: (1) the investment position of the City, (2) that all investment officers jointly prepared and signed 75 the report, (3) the beginning market value, the ending market value and the fully accrued interest for the reporting period of each pooled fund group, (4) the book value and market value of each separately listed asset and fund type invested at the beginning and end of the reporting period by the type of asset and fund type invested, (5) the maturity date of each separately invested asset, (6) the account or fund or pooled fund group for which each individual investment was acquired, and (7) the compliance of the investment portfolio as it relates to: (a) adopted investment strategy statements and (b) state law.

City Council Agenda Staff Report Meeting Date: 9/12/2023 Staff Contact: Terri Doby AGENDA ITEM: Consider/Discuss/Action regarding a Resolution ratifying the property tax revenue increase reflected in the City of Anna FY2024 Budget. (Budget Manager Terri Doby) SUMMARY: The budget is funded by a tax rate of $0.510717. While this rate is less than the tax rate adopted last year, a separate vote of the governing body to ratify the property tax increase reflected in the budget is required. The total amount of revenue generated from property taxes will increase by $3,057,846 which is a 23.6 percent increase from last year's budget. The property tax revenue to be raised from new property added to the tax roll this year is $1,934,510. FINANCIAL IMPACT: Process to adopt the FY2023-2024 Budget. BACKGROUND: Section 102.007 of the Local Government Code states that adoption of a budget that will require raising more revenue from property taxes than in the previous year requires a separate vote of the governing body to ratify the property tax increase reflected in the budget. A vote under this subsection is in addition to and separate from the vote to adopt the budget or a vote to set the tax rate required by Chapter 26, Tax Code. STRATEGIC CONNECTIONS: This item supports the City of Anna Strategic Plan, specifically advancing the strategic outcome area: Excellent. ATTACHMENTS: 1.

A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY OF ANNA, ACKNOWLEDGING AND RATIFYING THAT THE ADOPTION OF THE FISCAL YEAR 2023-2024 ANNUAL BUDGET WILL REQUIRE RAISING MORE REVENUE FROM PROPERTY TAXES THAN IN THE PREVIOUS FISCAL YEAR WHEREAS, The City Council (the “Council”) of the City of Anna wishes to comply with Section 102.007 of the Local Government Code; and WHEREAS, Section 102.007 of the Local Government Code requires a separate vote of the Council if the budget will require raising more revenue from property taxes than the previous fiscal year; and, WHEREAS, this resolution satisfies the aforementioned requirement; NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ANNA, TEXAS THAT: Section 1. Recitals Incorporated. The facts and recitals above are incorporated herein as if set forth in full for all purposes. Section 2. Acknowledgement and Ratification The Fiscal Year 2023-2024 annual budget will raise more revenue from property taxes than the previous fiscal year’s budget by $3,057,846 or 23.6%, and of that amount $1,934,510 is tax revenue to be raised from new property added to the tax roll this year. PASSED AND APPROVED by the City Council of the City of Anna, Texas on this 12th day of September, 2023. ATTESTED: _________________________ City Secretary Carrie L. Land APPROVED: _________________________ Mayor Nate Pike Item No. 6.c. City Council Agenda Staff Report Meeting Date: 9/12/2023 Staff Contact: Terri Doby AGENDA ITEM: Consider/Discuss/Action approving an Ordinance adopting the FY2024 Tax Rate. (Budget Manager Terri Doby) SUMMARY: The FY2024 budget can be funded by adopting a tax rate of $0.510717 cents per $100 valuation. Of the total tax rate, $0.365930 cents are dedicated to the general fund maintenance and operations (M&O) and $0.144787 cents are dedicated for the payment of general fund debt obligations, or interest and sinking (I&S). State regulations require specific language to be included in the ordinance and motion adopting the tax rate. The language in the motion is meant to reflect the change in the total tax rate while the language in section 5 of the ordinance only reflects the change in the M&O portion of the rate. The M&O rate exceeds the M&O no-new-revenue rate by 4.6% but is lower than the FY2023 adopted M&O rate, resulting in a $30.60 decrease on a $100,000 home. As the proposed rate exceeds the no-new-revenue rate of $0.464353, the motion must be made in the following form: “I move that the property tax rate be increased by the adoption of a tax rate of $0.510717, which is effectively a 10.0% percent increase in the tax rate.” In addition to statutory requirements for the language of the motion to adopt the tax rate, Sec. 26.05(b) requires 60% of the Council to vote in favor of a tax rate that exceeds the no-new-revenue tax rate. This means that five members of the Council must vote in favor of the motion to pass the $0.510717 rate. FINANCIAL IMPACT: Process to adopt the FY2023-2024 Property Tax Rate. BACKGROUND: Section 26.05 of the Property Tax Code requires that the governing body of each taxing unit adopt a tax rate for the current year and shall notify the assessor for the taxing unit of the rate adopted. The governing body must adopt a tax rate before September 30th. The tax rate consists of two components, (operations and maintenance rate and debt service rate), each of which must be approved separately.

City Council Agenda Staff Report Meeting Date: 9/12/2023 Staff Contact: Gregory Peters AGENDA ITEM: Consider/Discuss/Action on a Resolution authorizing the City Manager to execute a Park Fee Development Agreement by and between the City of Anna, Texas and Skorburg Lot Development, LLC; in a form approved by the City Attorney; and providing for an effective date. (Interim Assistant City Manager Greg Peters, P.E.) SUMMARY: This item was discussed at the August 22, 2023 City Council Meeting where no action was taken. The developer met with the Park Board Liaison and backup Park Board Liaison and discussed the terms of the agreement in more detail. Following the meeting, the developer made the following changes to the agreement: • Modified language to be clear regarding the park being dedicated to the City at the time of final plat for the first phase of the proposed single family development. • Added language stating that any funds of the identified $1,972,500 not spent on the park by the developer would be paid to the City for use by the City in constructing park improvements. • Clarified that the Add Alternate Park Improvements may be constructed by the developer, or by the City, with scenarios. Staff feels that these changes adequately address the concerns raised at the August 22, 2023 City Council Meeting and recommend approval. Original item language: Skorburg Lot Development, LLC is seeking to build a residential development known as Skorburg Anna Ranch, northeast of the intersection of East Foster Crossing and Leonard Avenue. The zoning for the project was approved at the June 27, 2023 City Council Meeting. The zoning ordinance and the concept plan are attached for informational purposes as Exhibit A. The Concept Plan shows a 28-acre (+/-) common area which the developer has agreed to dedicate to the City for a public park. The developer is seeking to utilize the Park Development Fees collected from the development to construct improvements on the park property for the benefit of both the Skorburg Anna Ranch neighborhood and all neighbors in Anna. The developer has presented the overall park concept to the Park Board, who received the concept positively at the May Park Board Meeting. The park concept is attached as Exhibit B - Park Concept Plan. If this agreement is approved, the developer is prepared to return to the Park Board at their September, 2023 meeting to finalize the list of proposed amenities with input and feedback from the board, and begin the design process. The key developer deal points of the agreement are listed below: • The developer agrees to dedicate 28-acres (+/-) of park land in lieu of paying Park Land Dedication Fees. • The developer agrees to a total project budget of $1,972,500 for the design and construction of improvements to the park. Said funding shall be provided by the developer in lieu of paying Park Development Fees at the time of Final Plat. Should the developer spend less than $1,972,500, the remaining balance shall be paid to the City as Park Development Fees on a per lot basis ($1,500 for single family, $2,000 for multi-family) at the time of building permit until the total budget is met. • The developer agrees to provide the land surveying/engineering/landscaping design and construction plans for the park, including base items and alternate items. • The developer agrees to construct the following base park amenities: North Parking Lot, Restroom, Pavilion, Playground, Soccer Field, East-West Trail. • The developer agrees to construct the following add-alternate park amenities, if they can be constructed within the overall project budget of $1,972,500: South Parking Lot, Trails to/from South Parking Lot, Pickleball & Tennis Courts, Volleyball Courts (sand). The key City deal points of the agreement are provided below: • The City agrees to waive Park Land Dedication Fees and Park Development Fees for the Skorburg Anna Ranch Project as noted above. • The City may choose to provide additional funds to construct alternate amenities which do not fit within the project budget. • The City reserves the right to use the construction plans to construct any alternate amenities in the future at the City's cost. The agreement has specific timeline requirements, including: • The Developer must commence design within 120 days of the execution of the agreement. • The northern parking lot, restroom, and east-west trail must be completed prior to the 50th house being occupied. • The pavilion, playground, and one or more soccer fields must be completed before the 100th house is occupied. • All add-alternate improvements which fit in the project budget must be completed before the 200th house is occupied. Staff recommends approval of the agreement for the following reasons: • The proposed dedication meets the intent of the Park Master Plan and the Strategic Plan Success Statement: Active, "Diverse recreational venues." • The park land identified is of a size and topography which will provide important outdoor public space for all Anna neighbors to enjoy. • The Developer is seeking to work directly with the Park Board to design and construct park amenities based on community needs. FINANCIAL IMPACT: The development will generate approximately $1,972,500 in park development fees. The proposed agreement will allocate the entirety of these funds toward the construction of improvements to the 28-acre (+/-) park. BACKGROUND: The zoning for the development project was approved at the June 27, 2023 City Council Meeting.

Upon approval (or deemed approval) of Developer's Design and Construction Cost set forth in the Evidence of Payments, the City shall issue a written acceptance letter to Developer, which shall signify final acceptance by the City of the Park Improvements (or portion thereof, as applicable). Developer may complete the Park Improvements in phases and may submit separate Evidence of Payments for separate phases, in its discretion. If Developer elects to submit separate Evidence of Payments for separate phases, the City will approve such Evidence of Payments in phases and accept the Park Improvements in phases. (b) Approval of Plats/Plans. Approval by the City, the City's engineer or other City employee or representative of any plans, designs or specifications submitted by Developer pursuant to this Agreement or pursuant to City Regulations shall not constitute or be deemed to be a release of the responsibility and liability of Developer, its engineer, employees, officers or agents for the accuracy and competency of their design and specifications. Further, any such approvals shall not be deemed to be an assumption of such responsibility and liability by the City for any defect in the design and specifications prepared by Developer's engineer, its officers, agents, servants or employees, it being the intent of the Parties that approval by the City's engineer signifies the City's approval on only the general design concept of the improvements to be constructed and that the design plans and specifications meet the requirements of the City Regulations. (c) Insurance. Developer or its contractor(s) shall acquire and maintain, during the period of time when the Park Improvements are under design: (a) workers compensation insurance in the amount required by law; and (b) commercial general liability insurance including personal injury liability, premises operations liability, and contractual liability, covering, but not limited to, the liability assumed under any indemnification provisions of this Agreement, with limits of liability for bodily injury, death and property damage of not less than $1,000,000.00. Such insurance shall also cover any and all claims which might arise out of the design contracts for the Park Improvements, whether by Developer, a contractor, subcontractor, engineer, materialman, or otherwise. Coverage must be on a "per occurrence" basis. All such insurance shall: (i) be issued by a carrier which is rated "A-1" or better by A.M. Best's Key Rating Guide and licensed to do business in the State of Texas; (ii) name the City as an additional insured; and (iii) contain a waiver of subrogation endorsement in favor of the City. Upon the execution of design contracts, Developer shall provide to the City certificates of insurance evidencing such insurance coverage together with the declaration of such policies, along with the endorsement naming the City as an additional insured. Each such policy shall provide that, at least 30 days prior to the cancellation, non-renewal or modification of the same, the City shall receive written notice of such cancellation, non-renewal or modification.

SECTION 4 PARK DEDICATION, IMPROVEMENTS, AND REIMBURSEMENT (a) Developer Obligations; Construction of Park Improvements. (1) In full satisfaction of any owner or developer of the Property’s obligations under Section 9.02.135 of the City Code to dedicate land and/or make a payment of cash in lieu of land Park Fee Development Agreement - Page 5 dedication, Developer shall dedicate [+/- 28 acres] of land to the City in the general location along E. Foster Crossing Road labeled as “Park Dedication Area” on Exhibit B- 2 hereto to be used for a public park (“Park Dedication”). The Park Dedication shall be the only park land dedication required by the City for any development on the Property and shall fully satisfy Developer’s park land dedication requirements (or cash in lieu) under the City Code for the entirety of the Property. The Park Dedication shall be provided to the City as part of the final plat for the portion of the Property adjacent to the area subject to the Park Dedication. (2) As a condition to receipt of the Reimbursement set forth herein, Developer agrees to design and construct the Base Park Improvements as listed below and more particularly described in Exhibit B-1 attached hereto. For the avoidance of doubt, the design and layout of the Park Improvements as shown on Exhibit B-1 is conceptual in nature and Developer shall not be held to this exact design. Developer may make changes to the design of the Park Improvements from the design shown on Exhibit B-1 so long as Park Improvements contain the Base Park Improvements. If the Developer’s Design and Construction Cost for the Base Park Improvements is less than the Maximum Project Cost, then the Developer agrees to make a payment to the City in an amount equal to the Maximum Project Cost less the Developer’s Design and Construction Cost for the Base Park Improvements (the “Park Improvement Payment”). Notwithstanding any statement to the contrary herein, the Developer shall not be required to make any Park Improvement Payment if the Developer’s Design and Construction Cost for the Base Park Improvements equals or exceeds the Maximum Project Cost. The City will use the Park Improvement Payment to construct certain additional improvements to the area subject to the Park Dedication, referred to herein as the “Add-Alternate Park Improvements”. The Add-Alternate Park Improvements are listed and ranked from most to least desirable in subsection (ii) below – with (a) being the most desirable and (d) being the least desirable. The City may construct all or a portion of the Add-Alternate Park Improvements in order of the ranking in the list below. By way of example, if only one of the Add-Alternate Park Improvements fits within the amount of the Park Improvement Payment, then the City will construct the south parking lot with the funds from the Park Improvement Payment. Or, by way of a second example, if only two of the Add-Alternate Park Improvements fit within the amount of the Park Improvement Payment, then the City will construct the south parking lot and the trails to the south parking lot. The City may construct the Add-Alternate Park Improvements at such time as the City deems desirable. For the avoidance of doubt, the Developer shall not be required to construct any Add-Alternate Park Improvements. i. Base Park Improvements (a) Northern parking lot as generally shown on Exhibit B-1; (b) Restroom; (c) Pavilion; (d) Playground; Park Fee Development Agreement - Page 6 (e) One or more soccer field(s); (f) A trail going from east to west of the land subject to the Park Dedication; ii. Add-Alternate Park Improvements (a) South parking lot as generally shown on Exhibit B-1; (b) Trails connecting to the south parking lot; (c) One or more pickleball/tennis court(s); (d) One or more volleyball court(s) (3) Timing for design and construction of the Park Improvements. i. Developer agrees to commence design of the Park Improvements within 120 days of execution of this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, Developer shall be considered to “commence design” of the Park Improvements when Developer executes a contract with an engineer and/or architect for design of the Park Improvements and provides notice to such engineer and/or architect to commence design. ii. The northern parking lot as generally shown on Exhibit B-1, the restroom, and a trail from east to west through the land subject to the Park Dedication shall be completed prior to occupancy of the fiftieth (50th) single-family dwelling unit on the Property. iii. The pavilion, playground, and one or more soccer fields shall be completed prior to occupancy of the one-hundredth (100th) single- family dwelling unit on the Property. (4) For the avoidance of doubt, the City agrees that completion of the Park Improvements (or any portion thereof) shall not be a condition to any plat approval for the Property (or portion thereof), approval of construction plans, building permits, acceptance of on-site public improvements, or any other approval required for the Developer to begin construction on the Property and complete development of the Property (or portion thereof). (5) Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, Developer has no obligation hereunder to construct all or any portion of the Park Improvements; however, construction of the Park Improvements in accordance with the terms hereof is a condition precedent to receipt of the Reimbursement (defined herein). (b) City Obligations. Park Fee Development Agreement - Page 7 (1) The City agrees to reimburse Developer from the park development fees (set forth in Section 9.02.135 of the City Code) (“Park Development Fee(s)”) already paid or to be paid for any development within the Property, as applicable, in an amount equal to the actual Developer’s Design and Construction Cost for the Park Improvements plus the amount of the Park Improvement Payment (if any), which amount shall not to exceed the actual Park Development Fees collected by the City for development within the Property (including all portions of the Property and all development types, e.g., single-family and multi-family) (the “Reimbursement”). In order to receive the Reimbursement, Developer shall comply with Section 3(a) herein. The City will provide the Reimbursement to Developer within the 30 days of receipt of any Evidence of Payments (so long as Park Development Fees have been collected for development within the Property). If sufficient Park Development Fees have not been collected to reimburse Developer for all of Developer’s Design and Construction Cost included in an Evidence of Payments and the amount of any Park Improvement Payment, then the City will provide any remaining Reimbursement due and owing to Developer immediately upon collection of any additional Park Development Fees for development within the Property. For the avoidance of doubt, the Reimbursement will be paid in phases if the Developer chooses (in its discretion) to submit the Evidence of Payments in phases as it constructs the Park Improvements. (2) Notwithstanding Section 4(b)(1) above, the Reimbursement authorized by this Agreement shall be null and void if the Developer fails to complete the design and construction of the Park Improvements by December 31, 2027, subject to Force Majeure. (c) Ownership and Acceptance. Upon dedication of the Park Dedication, the City will accept the Park Dedication and will own, maintain, and operate the land subject to the Park Dedication. Upon completion of any of the Park Improvements constructed by or on behalf of Developer, or portion thereof, the City will accept such Park Improvements. The Developer will provide the Park Improvement Payment to the City (if required pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) herein) upon the City’s acceptance of all of the Park Improvements constructed by or on behalf of Developer. For the avoidance of doubt, the Park Improvements may be completed and accepted in phases, in Developer’s discretion. All of the Park Improvements shall be owned by the City upon acceptance thereof by the City. Developer agrees to take any action reasonably required by the City to transfer, convey, or otherwise dedicate the Park Improvements. Upon completion of construction of any of the Park Improvements, the City shall maintain and operate the Park Improvements. Any future capital improvements for the Park Improvements or development of the land subject to the Park Dedication will be made at the City’s expense and discretion, and Developer shall not be required to pay for or provide any improvements other than the initial design and construction of the Park Improvements described herein. If the Park Dedication occurs prior to completion of construction of any of the Park Improvements, the City agrees to provide any easements needed by Developer to facilitate Developer’s ability to construct such remaining Park Improvements.

City Council Agenda Staff Report Meeting Date: 9/12/2023 Staff Contact: AGENDA ITEM: Conduct a Public Hearing/Consider/Discuss/Action on a Resolution approving a negotiated settlement between The Atmos Cities Steering Committee and Atmoss Energy Corp., Mid-Tex Division regarding the company's 2023 rate review mechanism filing. (City Attorney Clark McCoy) SUMMARY: Application of the standards set forth in ACSC’s RRM Tariff reduces the Company’s request to $156.1 million, $113.8 million of which would be applicable to ACSC members. After reviewing the filing and conducting discovery, ACSC’s consultants concluded that the system-wide deficiency under the RRM regime should be $130.9 million instead of the claimed $156.1 million. FINANCIAL IMPACT: This item has no strategic connection. BACKGROUND: The City, along with 181 other Mid-Texas cities served by Atmos Energy Corporation, Mid-Tex Division (“Atmos Mid-Tex” or “Company”), is a member of the Atmos Cities Steering Committee (“ACSC”). In 2007, ACSC and Atmos Mid-Tex settled a rate application filed by the Company pursuant to Section 104.301 of the Texas Utilities Code for an interim rate adjustment commonly referred to as a GRIP filing (arising out of the Gas Reliability Infrastructure Program legislation). That settlement created a substitute rate review process, referred to as Rate Review Mechanism (“RRM”), as a substitute for future filings under the GRIP statute. Since 2007, there have been several modifications to the original RRM Tariff. The most recent iteration of an RRM Tariff was reflected in an ordinance adopted by ACSC members in 2018. On or about March 31, 2023, the Company filed a rate request pursuant to the RRM Tariff adopted by ACSC members. The Company claimed that its cost-of-service in a test year ending December 31, 2022, entitled it to additional system-wide revenues of $165.9 million. Application of the standards set forth in ACSC’s RRM Tariff reduces the Company’s request to $156.1 million, $113.8 million of which would be applicable to ACSC members. After reviewing the filing and conducting discovery, ACSC’s consultants concluded that the system-wide deficiency under the RRM regime should be $130.9 million instead of the claimed $156.1 million. After several settlement meetings, the parties have agreed to settle the case for $142 million. This is a reduction of $23.9 million to the Company’s initial request. This includes payment of ACSC’s expenses. The settlement also includes an additional $19.5 million for the securitization regulatory asset expenses related to Winter Storm Uri. This was previously approved by the Texas Legislature and Railroad Commission. The Effective Date for new rates is October 1, 2023. ACSC members should take action approving the Resolution/Ordinance before September 30, 2023. RATE TARIFFS Atmos generated rate tariffs attached to the Resolution/Ordinance will generate $142 million in additional revenues. Atmos also prepared a Proof of Revenues supporting the settlement figures. ACSC consultants have agreed that Atmos’ Proof of Revenues is accurate. BILL IMPACT The impact of the settlement on average residential rates is an increase of $6.47 on a monthly basis, or 7.31%. The increase for average commercial usage will be $24.72 or 5.19%. Atmos provided bill impact comparisons containing these figures. SUMMARY OF ACSC’S OBJECTION TO THE UTILITIES CODE SECTION 104.301 GRIP PROCESS ACSC strongly opposed the GRIP process because it constitutes piecemeal ratemaking by ignoring declining expenses and increasing revenues while rewarding the Company for increasing capital investment on an annual basis. The GRIP process does not allow any review of the reasonableness of capital investment and does not allow cities to participate in the Railroad Commission’s review of annual GRIP filings or allow recovery of Cities’ rate case expenses. The Railroad Commission undertakes a mere administrative review of GRIP filings (instead of a full hearing) and rate increases go into effect without any material adjustments. In ACSC’s view, the GRIP process unfairly raises customers’ rates without any regulatory oversight. In contrast, the RRM process has allowed for a more comprehensive rate review and annual evaluation of expenses and revenues, as well as capital investment. RRM SAVINGS OVER GRIP While residents outside municipal limits must pay rates governed by GRIP, there are some cities served by Atmos Mid-Tex that chose to remain under GRIP rather than adopt RRM. Additionally, the City of Dallas adopted a variation of RRM which is referred to as DARR. When new rates become effective on October 1, 2023, ACSC residents will maintain an economic monthly advantage over GRIP and DARR rates. Comparison to Other Mid-Tex Rates (Residential) Average Bill Compared to RRM Cities RRM Cities: $42.62 - DARR: $42.55 ($0.07) ATM Cities: $44.39 $1.77 Environs: $44.27 $1.65 Note: ATM Cities and Environs rates are as-filed. Also note that DARR uses a test year ending in September rather than December. EXPLANATION OF “BE IT RESOLVED” PARAGRAPHS: 1. This section approves all findings in the Resolution/Ordinance. 2. This section adopts the RRM rate tariffs and finds the adoption of the new rates to be just, reasonable, and in the public interest. 3. This section makes it clear that Cities may challenge future costs associated with gas leaks. 4. This section finds that existing rates are unreasonable. Such finding is a necessary predicate to establishment of new rates. The new tariffs will permit Atmos Mid-Tex to recover an additional $142 million on a system-wide basis. 5. This section approves an exhibit that establishes a benchmark for pensions and retiree medical benefits to be used in future rate cases or RRM filings. 6. This section requires the Company to reimburse the City for expenses associated with review of the RRM filing, settlement discussions, and adoption of the Resolution/Ordinance approving new rate tariffs. 7. This section repeals any resolution or ordinance that is inconsistent with the Resolution/Ordinance. 8. This section finds that the meeting was conducted in compliance with the Texas Open Meetings Act, Texas Government Code, Chapter 551. 9. This section is a savings clause, which provides that if any section is later found to be unconstitutional or invalid, that finding shall not affect, impair, or invalidate the remaining provisions of this Resolution/Ordinance. This section further directs that the remaining provisions of the Resolution/Ordinance are to be interpreted as if the offending section or clause never existed. 10. This section provides for an effective date upon passage. 11. This section directs that a copy of the signed Resolution/Ordinance be sent to a representative of the Company and legal counsel for ACSC. CONCLUSION The Legislature’s GRIP process allowed gas utilities to receive annual rate increases associated with capital investments. The RRM process has proven to result in a more efficient and less costly (both from a consumer rate impact perspective and from a ratemaking perspective) than the GRIP process. Given Atmos Mid-Tex’s claim that its historic cost of service should entitle it to recover $165.9 million in additional system-wide revenues, the RRM settlement at $142 million for ACSC members reflects substantial savings to ACSC cities. Settlement at $142 million is fair and reasonable. The ACSC Executive Committee consisting of city employees of 18 ACSC members urges all ACSC members to pass the Resolution/Ordinance before September 30, 2023. New rates become effective October 1, 2023. STRATEGIC CONNECTIONS: This item has no strategic connection. ATTACHMENTS: 1. Atmos Mid-Tex 2023 RRM Settlement Resolution 2. CY22 MTX RRM - Tariffs 3.

WHEREAS, the City of Anna, Texas (“City”) is a gas utility customer of Atmos Energy Corp., Mid-Tex Division (“Atmos Mid-Tex” or “Company”), and a regulatory authority with an interest in the rates, charges, and services of Atmos Mid-Tex; and WHEREAS, the City is a member of the Atmos Cities Steering Committee (“ACSC”), a coalition of similarly-situated cities served by Atmos Mid-Tex (“ACSC Cities”) that have joined together to facilitate the review of, and response to, natural gas issues affecting rates charged in the Atmos Mid-Tex service area; and WHEREAS, ACSC and the Company worked collaboratively to develop a Rate Review Mechanism (“RRM”) tariff that allows for an expedited rate review process by ACSC Cities as a substitute to the Gas Reliability Infrastructure Program (“GRIP”) process instituted by the 2 Legislature, and that will establish rates for the ACSC Cities based on the system-wide cost of serving the Atmos Mid-Tex Division; and WHEREAS, the current RRM tariff was adopted by the City in a rate ordinance in 2018; and WHEREAS, on about March 1, 2023, Atmos Mid-Tex filed its 2023 RRM rate request with ACSC Cities based on a test year ending December 31, 2022; and WHEREAS, ACSC coordinated its review of the Atmos Mid-Tex 2023 RRM filing through its Executive Committee, assisted by ACSC’s attorneys and consultants, to resolve issues identified in the Company’s RRM filing; and WHEREAS, the Executive Committee, as well as ACSC’s counsel and consultants, recommend that ACSC Cities approve an increase in base rates for Atmos Mid-Tex of $142 million on a system-wide basis with an Effective Date of October 1, 2023; and WHEREAS, ACSC agrees that Atmos’ plant-in-service is reasonable; and WHEREAS, with the exception of approved plant-in-service, ACSC is not foreclosed from future reasonableness evaluation of costs associated with incidents related to gas leaks; and WHEREAS, the attached tariffs (Attachment 1) implementing new rates are consistent with the recommendation of the ACSC Executive Committee, are agreed to by the Company, and are just, reasonable, and in the public interest; and WHEREAS, the settlement agreement sets a new benchmark for pensions and retiree medical benefits (Attachment 2); and WHEREAS, the RRM Tariff contemplates reimbursement of ACSC’s reasonable expenses associated with RRM applications; and 3 WHEREAS, the RRM Tariff includes Securitization Interest Regulatory Asset amount of $19.5 million; NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ANNA, TEXAS: Section 1. That the findings set forth in this Resolution are hereby in all things approved. Section 2. That, without prejudice to future litigation of any issue identified by ACSC, the City Council finds that the settled amount of an increase in revenues of $142 million on a system-wide basis represents a comprehensive settlement of gas utility rate issues affecting the rates, operations, and services offered by Atmos Mid-Tex within the municipal limits arising from Atmos Mid-Tex’s 2023 RRM filing, is in the public interest, and is consistent with the City’s authority under Section 103.001 of the Texas Utilities Code. Section 3. That despite finding Atmos Mid-Tex’s plant-in-service to be reasonable, ACSC is not foreclosed in future cases from evaluating the reasonableness of costs associated with incidents involving leaks of natural gas.

Attachment 1 MID-TEX DIVISION ATMOS ENERGY CORPORATION RIDER: WNA – WEATHER NORMALIZATION ADJUSTMENT APPLICABLE TO: ALL CUSTOMERS IN THE MID-TEX DIVISION UNDER THE RRM TARIFF EFFECTIVE DATE: Bills Rendered on or after 10/01/2023 Provisions for Adjustment The Commodity Charge per Ccf (100 cubic feet) for gas service set forth in any Rate Schedules utilized by the cities of the Mid-Tex Division service area for determining normalized winter period revenues shall be adjusted by an amount hereinafter described, which amount is referred to as the "Weather Normalization Adjustment." The Weather Normalization Adjustment shall apply to all temperature sensitive residential and commercial bills based on meters read during the revenue months of November through April. The five regional weather stations are Abilene, Austin, Dallas, Waco, and Wichita Falls. Computation of Weather Normalization Adjustment The Weather Normalization Adjustment Factor shall be computed to the nearest one-hundredth cent per Ccf by the following formula: (HSFi x (NDD-ADD) ) WNAFi = Ri (BLi + (HSFi x ADD) ) Where i = any particular Rate Schedule or billing classification within any such particular Rate Schedule that contains more than one billing classification WNAFi = Weather Normalization Adjustment Factor for the ith rate schedule or classification expressed in cents per Ccf Ri = Commodity Charge rate of temperature sensitive sales for the ith schedule or classification. HSFi = heat sensitive factor for the ith schedule or classification divided by the average bill count in that class NDD = billing cycle normal heating degree days calculated as the simple ten-year average of actual heating degree days. ADD = billing cycle actual heating degree days. Bli = base load sales for the ith schedule or classification divided by the average bill count in that class The Weather Normalization Adjustment for the jth customer in ith rate schedule is computed as: WNA i = WNAF i x q ij Where q ij is the relevant sales quantity for the jth customer in ith rate schedule.
