Treasury Regulations and Revenue Procedure 97-13 and other applicable rules and regulations. As
of the date hereof, none of the Project Funds or the Project are being used to provide property
• subject to contracts or other arrangements with persons or entities engaged in a trade or business
(other than Governmental Units) that involve the management of property or the provision of services
that do not comply with the standards of the Treasury Regulations and Revenue Procedure 97-13.
Except to the extent the Recipient has received an opinion of counsel expert in the issuance of state
and local government bonds the interest on which is excluded from gross income under Section 103
of the Code("Nationally-Recognized Bond Counsel") and satisfactory to the State Water Board and
the Bank to the contrary, the Recipient will not enter into any management or service contracts with
any person or entity that is not a Governmental Unit for services to be provided with respect to the
Project except with respect to contracts where the following requirements are complied with: (i)the
compensation is reasonable for the services rendered; (ii)the compensation is not based, in whole or
in part, on a share of net profits from the operation of the Project (iii) not more than twenty percent
(20%)of the voting power of the Recipient in the aggregate may be vested in the service.provider
and its directors, officers, shareholders and employees and vice versa; (iv) any overlapping board
members between the Recipient and the service provider must not include the chief executive officer
or executive director of either, or their respective governing bodies; and (v):
(a) At least ninety-five percent(95%)of the compensation for services for each annual period during
the term of the contract is based on a periodic fixed fee which is a stated dollar amount for
services rendered for a specified period of time. The stated dollar amount may automatically
increase according to a specified objective external standard that is not linked to the output or
efficiency of a facility, e.g., the Consumer Price Index and similar external indices that track
increases in prices in an area or increases in revenues or costs in an industry are objective
. external standards. A fee shall not fail to qualify as a periodic fixed fee as a result of a one(1)
time incentive award during the term of the contract under which compensation automatically
increases when a gross revenue or expense target(but not both) is reached if that award is a
single stated dollar amount. The term of the contract, including all renewal options, must not
. exceed the lesser of eighty percent(80%)of the reasonably expected useful life of the financed
property and fifteen (15)years(twenty(20)years for"public utility property"within the meaning of
• Section 168(i)(10)of the Code);
. (b) At least eighty percent(80%) of the compensation for services for each annual period during the
term of the contract is based on a periodic fixed fee. The term of the contract, including all
renewal options, must not exceed the lesser of eighty percent(80%)of the reasonably expected •
useful life of the financed property and ten(10)years. A one (1)time incentive award during the
term of the contract similar to the award described in subsection (a) above is permitted under
this option as well;
(c) At least fifty percent(50%) of the compensation for services for each annual period during the
term of the contract is based on a periodic fixed fee or all of the compensation for services is
based on a capitation fee or combination of a periodic fixed fee and a capitation fee. A capitation
15 -

City of Seal Beach
Agreement No.: 10-838-550
Project No.: C-06-5310-110
• fee is a fixed periodic amount for each person lot whom the service provider or the Recipient
assumes the responsibility to provide all needed services for a specified period so long as the
quantity and type of services actually provided to covered persons vary substantially; e.g., a fixed
dollar amount payable per month to a service provider for each member of a plan for whom the •
provider agrees to provide all needed services for a specified period. A capitation fee may
include a variable component of up to twenty percent(20%) of the total capitation fee designed to
protect the service provider against risks such as catastrophic loss. •The term of the contract,
including all renewal options, must not exceed five(5)years. The contract must be terminable by
the Recipient on reasonable notice without penalty or cause, at the end of the third year of the
contract;
(d) All of the compensation for services is based on a per-unit fee or a combination of a per-unit fee
and a periodic fee. A per-unit fee is defined to mean a fee based on a unit of service provided as
specified in the contract or otherwise specifically determined by an independent third party, such
as the administrator of the program or the Recipient; e.g., a stated dollar amount for each
specified procedure performed, car parked or passenger mile is a per-unit fee. The term of the
contract, including all renewal options, must not exceed three (3)years. The contract must be
terminable by the Recipient on reasonable notice, without penalty or cause, at the end of the
second year of the contract term; or
(e) All of the compensation for services is based on a percentage of fees charged or a combination
of a per-unit fee and a percentage of revenue or expense fee. During the start up period,
however, compensation may be based on a percentage of either gross revenues, adjusted gross
revenues or expenses of a facility. The term of the contract, including renewal options, must not
exceed two(2)years. The contract must be terminable by the Recipient on reasonable notice
without penalty or cause, at the end of the first year. This type of contract is permissible only with
respect to contracts under which the service provider primarily provides services to third parties,
and management contracts involving a facility during an initial start-up period for which there
have been insufficient operations to establish a reasonable estimate of the amount of the annual
gross revenues and expenses(e.g., a contract for general management services for the first
year of the operations).
•
If the compensation terms of a management or service contract are materially revised, the
requirements for compensation terms must be retested as of the date of the material revision
and the management or service contract is treated as one that was newly entered into as of the
date of the material revision.
A renewal option, for purposes of the foregoing, is defined to mean a provision under which the
service provider has a legally enforceable right to renew the contract. Thus, for example, a
-provision under which a contract is automatically renewed for one(1)year periods absent
cancellation by either party is not a renewal option, even if it is expected to be renewed.
A cancellation penalty is defined to include a limitation on the Recipient's ability to compete with
the service provider, a requirement that the Recipient purchase equipment, goods or services
from the service provider, and a requirement that the Recipient pay liquidated damages for
cancellation of the contract; in comparison, a requirement effective on cancellation that the
Recipient reimburse the service provider for ordinary and necessary expenses or a restriction
against the Recipient hiring key personnel of the service provider is generally not a contract
termination penalty. Another contract between the service provider and the Recipient, such as •
an Installment Sale Agreement or guarantee by the service provider, is treated as creating a
contract termination penalty if that contract contains terms that are not customary or arm's
length,that could operate to prevent the Recipient from terminating the contract(e.g., provisions
under which the contract terminates if the management contract is terminated or that places
substantial restrictions on the selection of a substitute service provider).

The service provider must not have any role or relationship with the Recipient, that, in effect,
substantially limits the Recipient's ability to exercise its rights, including cancellation rights, under
the contract, based on all the facts and circumstances.
4.8 No Disposition of Financed Property.
The Recipient does not expect to sell or otherwise dispose of any portion of the Project, in whole or in

The Recipient will not use any of the Project Funds to replace funds of the Recipient which are or will
be used to acquire investment property reasonably expected to produce a yield that is materially
higher than the yield on the Bonds. •
• 4.12 Reimbursement Resolution.
- See Exhibit E, Recipient Reimbursement Resolution.
•
4.13 Change in Use.
The Recipient reasonably expects to use all Project Funds and the Project for the entire stated term
to maturity of the Obligation. Absent an opinion of Nationally-Recognized Bond Counsel to the effect
that such use of Project Funds will not adversely affect the exclusion from federal gross income of
interest on the Bonds pursuant to Section 103 of the Code, the Recipient will use the property
financed or refinanced with Project Funds solely as set forth in the Agreement.

• The Recipient will not directly or indirectly use any of the Project Funds that would cause the Bonds

4.15 No Notices or Inquiries From IRS.
The Recipient has not received any notice or inquiry by the Internal Revenue Service within the last
ten (10)years regarding any obligations issued by the Recipient, the interest on which obligations is
excludable from federal income taxation.
4.16 Amendments;Application. •

award the contract within 90 days of closure of the solicitation to ensure that wage
determinations contained in the solicitation remain current.
(b) If the Recipient carries out activity subject to DB by issuing a task order, work assignment or
similar instrument to an existing contractor (ordering instrument) rather than by publishing a
solicitation, the Recipient shall insert the appropriate DOL wage determination from

If this occurs, the Recipient shall either terminate the contract or ordering instrument and
issue a revised solicitation or ordering instrument or incorporate DOL's wage determination
retroactive to the beginning of the contract or ordering instrument by change order. The

individually registered in a bona fide apprenticeship program registered with the
U.S. Department of Labor, Employment and Training Administration, Office of
Apprenticeship Training, Employer and Labor Services, or with a State
Apprenticeship Agency recognized by the Office, or if a person is employed in his
or her first 90 days of probationary employment as an apprentice in such an
apprenticeship program, who is not individually registered in the program, but who
• has been certified by the Office of Apprenticeship Training, Employer and Labor
Services or a State Apprenticeship Agency(where appropriate)to be eligible for
probationary employment as an apprentice. The allowable ratio of apprentices to
journeymen on the job site in any craft classification shall not be greater than the •
ratio permitted to the contractor as to the entire work force under the registered
program. Any worker listed on a payroll at an apprentice wage rate,who is not
registered or otherwise employed as stated above, shall be paid not less than the
applicable wage rate on the wage determination for the classification of work
actually performed. In addition, any apprentice performing work on the job site in
excess of the ratio permitted under the registered program shall be paid not less
•
than the applicable wage rate on the wage determination for the work actually
performed. Where a contractor is performing construction on a project in a locality
other than that in which its program is registered, the ratios and wage rates
(expressed in percentages of the journeyman's hourly rate) specified in the
contractors or subcontractor's registered program shall be observed. Every
apprentice must be paid at not less than the rate specified in the registered
program for the apprentice's level of progress, expressed as a percentage of the
journeymen hourly rate specified in the applicable wage determination.
Apprentices shall be paid fringe benefits in accordance with the provisions of the
apprenticeship program. If the apprenticeship program does not specify fringe
benefits, apprentices must be paid the full amount of fringe benefits listed on the
wage determination for the applicable classification. If the Administrator
determines that a different practice prevails for the applicable apprentice
classification, fringes shall be paid in accordance with that determination. In the •
event the Office of Apprenticeship Training, Employer and Labor Services, or a
State Apprenticeship Agency recognized by the Office;withdraws approval of an
apprenticeship program, the contractor will no longer be permitted to utilize
apprentices at less than the applicable predetermined rate for the work performed
i - until an acceptable program is approved.
(ii) Trainees. Except as provided in 29 CFR 5.16, trainees will not be permitted to
work at less than the predetermined rate for the work performed unless they are
employed pursuant to and individually registered in a program which has received
prior approval, evidenced by formal certification by the U.S. Department of Labor,
Employment and Training Administration. The ratio of trainees to journeymen on
the job site shall not be greater than permitted under the plan approved by the
Employment and Training Administration. Every trainee must be paid at not less
than the rate specified in the approved program for the trainee's level of progress,
expressed as a percentage of the journeyman hourly rate specified in the
applicable wage determination. Trainees shall be paid fringe benefits in

classification of work actually performed. In addition, any trainee performing work
on the job site in excess of the ratio permitted under the registered program shall
be paid not less than the applicable wage rate on the wage determination for the
work actually performed. In the event the Employment and Training
Administration withdraws approval of a training program, the contractor will no •
longer be permitted to utilize trainees at less than the applicable predetermined
rate for the work performed until an acceptable program is approved.
