M-09.01 A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE ISSUANCE OF NOTES IN ANTICIPATION OF THE COLLECTION OF CURRENT REVENUES (Continued): Section 3. Payment. The principal, interest, and any redemption premium (collectively, "Debt Service Charges") payable on the Notes shall be payable in lawful money of the United States of America, and in Federal Reserve funds if requested by the purchaser, without deduction for the services of the paying agent. If the Notes are issued in bearer form (payable either to bearer or to a named payee), they shall be payable at (a) the office of any legal depository of the Issuer, designated for that purpose by the Treasurer, (b) if requested by the purchaser of the largest principal amount of the Notes, at the option of the holder of the Notes, at the office of any bank or trust company designated by the purchaser of the largest principal amount of the Notes and situated in a city in which is located a Federal Reserve Bank or branch, provided that such designation shall be approved by the Treasurer after determining that the designation of such alternate paying agent will not endanger the funds or securities of the Issuer and that proper procedures and safeguards are available for such purpose, or (c) if all of the Notes are purchased by a financial institution, at the office of that financial institution or branch, if requested by the purchaser. If the Notes are issued in fully registered form, they shall be payable upon presentation and surrender at the office of the Treasurer of the Board, as Note Registrar, to the persons in whose names the Notes are registered on the Note Register, maintained by the Note Registrar, as all described in Section 4 below. If the Notes are issued in book entry form, they shall be payable by wire transfer to the Depository on the maturity date, upon the concurrent presentation and surrender of the Notes at the office of the Note Registrar.

Section 4. Authentication, Registration, Transfer, and Exchange; Book Entry System. The provisions of this Section 4 shall apply to the Notes only if the purchaser of the Notes requests that the Notes be issued in fully-registered form or book-entry form as provided in Section 2(f).

In that event, no Note shall be valid or obligatory for any purpose or shall be entitled to any security or benefit under this Resolution or any other proceedings of the Issuer for the issuance of the Notes (collectively, the "Note Proceedings") unless and until the certificate of authentication printed on the Note is signed by the Note Registrar (as defined below) as authenticating agent. Authentication by the Note Registrar shall be conclusive evidence that the Note so authenticated has been duly issued, executed and delivered under, and is entitled to the security and benefit of, this Resolution.

The Treasurer of the Board is hereby appointed to act as the authenticating agent, note registrar, transfer agent, and paying agent for the Notes (in such collective capacities, the "Note Registrar").

So long as any of the Notes remain outstanding, the Issuer will cause the Note Registrar to maintain and keep at his office all books and records necessary for the registration, exchange and transfer of Notes (the "Note Register") as provided in this Section. The person in whose name a Note is registered on the Note Register shall be regarded as the absolute owner of that Note for all purposes of the Note proceedings. Payment of or on account of the debt charges on any Note shall be made only to or upon the order of that person; neither the Issuer nor the Note Registrar shall be affected by 3 BEAVER LOCAL BOARD OF EDUCATION BOARD MINUTES 2009

M-09.01 A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE ISSUANCE OF NOTES IN ANTICIPATION OF THE COLLECTION OF CURRENT REVENUES (Continued): any notice to the contrary, but the registration may be changed as provided in this Section. All such payments shall be valid and effectual to satisfy and discharge the Issuer's liability upon the Notes, including interest, to the extent of the amount or amounts so paid. Any Note may be exchanged for Notes of any authorized denomination upon presentation and surrender at the office of the Note Registrar, together with a request for exchange signed by the registered owner or by a person legally empowered to do so in a form satisfactory to the Note Registrar. A Note may be transferred only on the Note Register upon presentation and surrender of the Note at the office of the Note Registrar together with an assignment signed by the registered owner or by a person legally empowered to do so in a form satisfactory to the Note Registrar. Upon exchange or transfer the Note Registrar shall complete, authenticate, and deliver a new Note or Notes of any authorized denomination or denominations requested to the owner equal in the aggregate to the principal amount of the Note or Notes surrendered and bearing interest at the same rate and maturing on the same date.

If manual signatures on behalf of the Issuer are required, the Note Registrar shall undertake the exchange or transfer of Notes only after the new Notes are signed by the authorized officers of the Issuer. In all cases of Notes exchanged or transferred, the Issuer shall sign and the Note Registrar shall authenticate and deliver Notes in accordance with the provisions of the Note proceedings. The exchange or transfer shall be without charge to the owner, except that the Issuer and Note Registrar may make a charge sufficient to reimburse them for any tax or other governmental charge required to be paid with respect to the exchange or transfer. The Issuer or the Note Registrar may require that those charges, if any, be paid before the procedure is begun for the exchange or transfer. All Notes issued and authenticated upon any exchange or transfer shall be valid obligations of the Issuer, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same security and benefit under the Note proceedings, as the Notes surrendered upon that exchange or transfer.

If requested by the purchaser of the largest principal and of the Notes, the Notes shall be issued in book entry form in accordance with the provisions of the Section. As used in this Section and this resolution:

"Book entry form" or "book entry system" means a form or system under which (i) the ownership of book entry interests in the Notes and the principal of and interest on the Notes may be transferred only through a book entry, and (ii) physical Note certificates in fully registered form are issued by the Issuer only to a Depository or its nominee as registered owner, with the Notes "immobilized" in the custody of the Depository. The book entry maintained by an entity other than the Issuer is the record that identifies, and records the transfer of the interests of, the owners of book entry interests in those Notes and that principal and interest.

January 7, 2009 – Special Meeting

M-09.01 A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE ISSUANCE OF NOTES IN ANTICIPATION OF THE COLLECTION OF CURRENT REVENUES (Continued): "Depository" means any securities depository that is a clearing agency under federal law operating and maintaining, with its Participants or otherwise, a book entry system to record ownership of book entry interests in the Notes or the principal of and interest on the Notes, and to effect transfers of Notes, in book entry form.

"Participant" means any participant contracting with a Depository under a book entry system and includes security brokers and dealers, banks and trust companies, and clearing corporations.

The Notes may be issued to a Depository for use in a book entry system and, if and as long as a book entry system is utilized, (i) the Notes may be issued in the form of a single, fully registered Note registered in the name of the Depository or its nominee, as registered owner, and immobilized in the custody of the Depository; (ii) the book entry interest owners shall have no right to receive Notes in the form of physical securities or certificates; (iii) ownership of book entry interests shall be shown by book entry on the system maintained and operated by the Depository and its Participants, and transfers of the ownership of book entry interests shall be made only by book entry by the Depository and its Participants; and (iv) the Notes as such shall not be transferable or exchangeable, except for transfer to another Depository or to another nominee of a Depository, without further action by the Issuer.

If any Depository determines not to continue to act as a Depository for the Notes for use in a book entry system, the Treasurer may attempt to establish a securities depository/book entry relationship with another qualified Depository. If the Treasurer does not or is unable to do so, the Treasurer, after making provision for notification of the book entry interest owners by the then Depository and any other arrangements deemed necessary, shall permit withdrawal of the Notes from the Depository, and shall cause note certificates in registered form to be authenticated by the Note Registrar and delivered to the assigns of the Depository or its nominee, all at the cost and expense (including any costs of printing), if the event is not the result of Issuer action or inaction, of those persons requesting such issuance.

The Treasurer is also hereby authorized and directed to the extent necessary or required to enter into any agreements determined necessary in connection with the book entry system for the Notes, after determining that the signing thereof will not endanger the funds or securities of the Issuer.

Section 5. Sale. The Notes shall be sold to First National Community Bank for 100% of the par value thereof and accrued interest, if any, at the interest rate set forth in Section 2(g) of this resolution. The Treasurer is hereby authorized and directed to deliver the Notes, when executed, and furnish, if requested by any purchaser, a true transcript of proceedings pertaining to the Notes as provided in Section 133.33, Revised Code, to the purchaser so requesting upon payment of the purchase price.

M-09.01 A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE ISSUANCE OF NOTES IN ANTICIPATION OF THE COLLECTION OF CURRENT REVENUES (Continued): Section 6. Security and Source of Payment. The Notes shall be special obligations of the Issuer. This Board hereby determines it to be necessary and appropriate to pledge, and hereby pledges, to the payment of Debt Service Charges on the Notes:

(a) The Current Tax Revenues distributed to the Issuer from all settlements of taxes in the 2009 Fiscal Year, other than taxes to be received for the payment of debt charges on securities of the Issuer other than the Notes.

(b) Distributions from the State of Ohio in payment of credits against or partial exemptions from, or reduction of such Current Tax Revenues.

The Debt Service Charges on the Notes shall be paid at their maturity from any of the amounts set forth above pledged to their payment, or otherwise available for their payment.

While the Notes and any notes issued to refund the Notes are outstanding, this Board affirms its prior levy of property taxes to be collected in the calendar year 2009 and covenants to levy and affirms its levy of property taxes to be collected in the calendar year 2009, in anticipation of which the Notes are being issued, on all the taxable property in this School District.

Section 7. Application of Proceeds. The proceeds received from the sale of the Notes, shall be deposited as follows:

(a) to the Bond Retirement Fund, any accrued interest and premiums received upon the sale of the Notes, which shall be credited to separate accounts in the Bond Retirement Fund for the payment of Debt Service Charges on the Notes.

(b) to the General Fund, the remainder of the proceeds of the Notes to be applied to pay general operating expenses of the Issuer (which is the purpose for which the Current Tax Revenues are levied, collected, distributed, and appropriated) and financing costs of the Notes.

Section 8. Bond Retirement Fund Account. This Board establishes, and covenants that it will maintain, until the Debt Service Charges on the Notes are paid, a separate account as part of the Bond Retirement Fund. The Treasurer shall credit to that account that portion of each future distribution to the Board of the proceeds of the Current Tax Revenues equal to the product of the total amount of that distribution multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the aggregate amount of Debt Service Charges on the Notes payable at their maturity and the denominator of which is the total

M-09.01 A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE ISSUANCE OF NOTES IN ANTICIPATION OF THE COLLECTION OF CURRENT REVENUES (Continued): estimated net amount of the proceeds from the Current Tax Revenues distributed and to be distributed by the County Auditor to the Issuer during the 2009 Fiscal Year.

So long as any portion of the Debt Service Charges on the Notes is unpaid, the money credited to that account shall be used solely for the purpose of paying those Debt Service Charges. Should accumulated amounts credited to that account produce an amount less than the amount needed to make a timely payment of Debt Service Charges on the Notes, the full amount needed to make up any such deficiency shall be paid by the Treasurer into the Bond Retirement Fund and credited to that account from the last distribution or distributions to the Issuer of the proceeds of the Current Tax Revenues received prior to the date of that payment.

Section 9. Federal Tax Matters. The Issuer covenants that it will take or cause to be taken those actions which may be required of it for the interest on the Notes to be and remain excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes and that it will not take or permit to be taken any actions which would adversely affect that exclusion. Without limiting these covenants, the Issuer specifically covenants as follows:

(a) Private Activity Bonds. The Issuer will apply the proceeds received from the sale of the Notes to the purpose specified in Section 1 of this Resolution. The Issuer will not secure or derive the money for payment of Debt Service Charges on the Notes by any property or payments, and will not loan the proceeds of the Notes to any person, all in such manner as to cause the Notes to be "private activity bonds" within the meaning of Section 141(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the "Code").

(b) Arbitrage. The Issuer will restrict the use of proceeds of the Notes in such a manner and to such extent as may be necessary, after taking into account reasonable expectations at the time of the delivery of and payment for the Notes, so that the Notes will not constitute "arbitrage bonds" within the meaning of Section 148 of the Code and the regulations prescribed under that Section. The Treasurer, as the fiscal officer, or any other officer having responsibility for issuing the Notes, is authorized and directed, alone or in conjunction with any other officer, employee or consultant of the Issuer, to execute and deliver a certificate of the Issuer, for inclusion in the transcript of proceedings for the Notes, setting forth the reasonable expectations of the Issuer on the date of the delivery of and payment for the Notes, regarding the amount and use of the proceeds of the Notes pursuant to Section 148 of the Code and the regulations prescribed under that Section. If required, the Issuer will limit the yield on any "investment property" (as defined in Section 148(b)(2) of the Code) acquired with the proceeds of the Notes.

M-09.01 A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE ISSUANCE OF NOTES IN ANTICIPATION OF THE COLLECTION OF CURRENT REVENUES (Continued): (c) Arbitrage Rebate. It is not expected that the aggregate face amount of all tax-exempt bonds (other than private activity bonds and refunding bonds described in Section 148(f)(4)(D)(iii) of the Code) issued by the Issuer (and all subordinate entities to the Issuer) during the calendar year 2009 will exceed $5,000,000. If it is determined that the Issuer does not qualify for the “small issuer” exception to rebate described in Code Section 148(f)(4)(D), then the Issuer will pay any amounts required by Section 148(f)(2) of the Code to the United States at the times required by Section 148(f)(3) of the Code, unless the gross proceeds of the Notes are expended within the appropriate time period set forth in Section 148(f)(4)(B) of the Code. The Treasurer is authorized to rely on these representations of this Board in making certifications with respect to arbitrage rebate payments to the United States of America. The Issuer will maintain such books and records and make such calculations and reports as are required to comply with the arbitrage rebate requirements of the Code. The Treasurer is hereby authorized and directed, if necessary in his judgment, to retain accountants or other consultants to assist in the calculation of such rebate amounts. The fees of such accountants or consultants may be paid from the proceeds of the Notes or from other sources as may be lawfully available and appropriated for that purpose.

(d) Federal Guarantee. The Issuer will not permit the use of the Project, or make loans of the proceeds of the Notes, or invest the proceeds of the Notes in such manner as to cause the Notes to be "federally guaranteed" within the meaning of Section 149(b) of the Code.

(e) Information Reporting. The Treasurer, Superintendent of Schools, and President of the Board, or any of them, are hereby authorized and directed to execute and file Form 8038-G with the Internal Revenue Service or any other federal tax forms as may be required by the Internal Revenue Service.

(f) Bank Qualification. This Board hereby determines that the total aggregate amount of "qualified tax-exempt obligations" (as the term is defined in Section 265(b)(3) of the Code) issued by the Issuer during the calendar year 2009 will not exceed $10,000,000.

The Issuer will restrict the use of proceeds of the Notes in such a manner and to such extent as may be necessary, after taking into account reasonable expectations at the time of the delivery of and payment for the Notes, so that the Notes will not constitute "arbitrage bonds" within the meaning of Section 148 of the Code and the regulations prescribed under that Section. The Treasurer, as the fiscal officer, or any other officer having responsibility for issuing the Notes, is authorized and directed, alone or in conjunction with any other officer, employee or consultant of the Issuer, to execute and deliver a certificate of the Issuer, for inclusion in the transcript of proceedings for the Notes, setting forth the reasonable expectations of the Issuer on the date of the delivery of and payment for the Notes, regarding the amount and use of the proceeds of the Notes pursuant to Section 148 of the Code and the regulations prescribed under that Section.

(c) Arbitrage Rebate.

If it is determined that the Issuer does not qualify for the “small issuer” exception to rebate described in Code Section 148(f)(4)(D), then the Issuer will pay any amounts required by Section 148(f)(2) of the Code to the United States at the times required by Section 148(f)(3) of the Code, unless the gross proceeds of the Notes are expended within the appropriate time period set forth in Section 148(f)(4)(B) of the Code. The Treasurer is authorized to rely on these representations of this Board in making certifications with respect to arbitrage rebate payments to the United States of America. The Issuer will maintain such books and records and make such calculations and reports as are required to comply with the arbitrage rebate requirements of the Code. The Treasurer is hereby authorized and directed, if necessary in his judgment, to retain accountants or other consultants to assist in the calculation of such rebate amounts. The fees of such accountants or consultants may be paid from the proceeds of the Notes or from other sources as may be lawfully available and appropriated for that purpose.
