THE BONDS

Authority for Issuance

The Bonds are issued pursuant to the prcwisions of Article 4.5 of Chapter 3 of Part 1 of Division 2 of Title 5 of the California Gcwemrrent Code of the State of California (the "Act''), comnencing with Section 535CXi et seq., as arrended, Article XI I IA of the California Constitution and the Resolution. The District received authorization at an election held on Ncwember 8, 2016 b,I the requisite 55% of the votes cast b,I eligible voters within the District to issue $40,000,000 aggregate principal amount of general obligation bonds (the "2016 Authorization"). The Bonds are the first series of bonds issued under the 2016 Authorization, and follo.ving the issuance thereof, $30,000,000 of the Authorization will remain unissued.

Security and Sources of Payment

The Bands are general obi i gati ons of the District payable solely frorn the proceeds of ad val orem property taxes. The Board of Supervisors of the County is empo.vered and obligated to annually levy such ad valoremtaxes, without limitation as to rate or amount (except certain personal property which is taxable at limited rates), upon all property within the District suqject to taxation thereb,I, forthe payrrent of the pri nci pal of and interest on the Bands when due.

Such ad valorem property taxes will be levied annually in addition to all other taxes during the period that the Bonds are outstanding in an amount sufficient to pay the principal of and interest thereon when due. The levy may include an allo.vance for an annual reserve, established for the purp:ise of avoiding fluctuating tax levies. While the County has historically levied ad valorem property taxes to establish such a reserve for other bonds of the District, the County is not obligated to establish or maintain such a reserve, and the District can make no representations that the County wi 11 do so in future years. Such taxes, when collected, will be placed b,I the County in the Debt Service Fund (defined herein) established b,I the Resolution, which is required to be segregated and maintained b,I the County and which is designated for the payrrent of the Bonds and interest thereon when due, and for no other purp:ise. Pursuant to the Resolution, the District has pledged funds on dep:isit in the Debt Service Fund to the payrrent of the Bonds. Although the County is obligated to levy ad valorem property taxes for the payrrent of the Bonds as described abcwe, and will maintain the Debt Service Fund, the Bonds are not a debt of the County.

Pursuant to California Gcwemrrent Code Section 53515, the Bonds will be secured b,I a statutory lien on all revenues received pursuant to the levy and collection of ad valorem property taxes for the payrrent thereof. The lien automatically attaches, without further action or authorization b,I the District Board, and is valid and binding frorn the tirre the Bonds are executed and delivered. The revenues received pursuant to the levy and collection of the ad valorem property tax wil I be i mnediately suqject to the lien, and such lien will be enforceable againstthe District, its successor, transferees and creditors, and all other parties asserting rights therein, irrespective of whether such parties have notice of the lien and without the need for physical delivery, recordation, filing or further act.

5 The rmneys in the Debt Service Fund, to the extent necessary to pay the principal of and interest on the Bonds, as the sarre becorres due and payable, will be transferred b,I the County to the Paying Agent. The Paying Agent will in turn rernitthe funds to DTC for renittance of such principal and interest to its Participants (as defined herein) for subsequent disburserrent to the respective Beneficial owners of such Bonds.

The armunt of the annual ad valorern property taxes levied b,I the County to repay the Bonds as described aro..rewill be deternined b,I the relationship between the assessed valuation of taxable property in the District and the armunt of debt service due on the Bonds in any year. Fluctuations in the annual debt service on the Bonds and the assessed value of taxable property in the District may cause the annual tax rates to fluctuate. Economic and other factors beyond the District's control, such as general market decline in land values, reclassification of property to a class exempt frorn taxation, whether b,I o.vnership or use (such as exemptions for property o.vned b,I the State of California (the "State") and local agencies and property used for qualified education, hospital, charitable or religious purposes), or the complete or partial destruction of the taxable property caused b,I a natural or manrnade disaster, such as earthquake, flood, drought or taxi c contani nation, could cause a reduction i n the assessed value of taxable property within the District and necessitate a corresponding increase in the respective annual tax rates. For further information regarding the District's assessed valuation, tax rates, 0.terlapping debt, and other matters concerning taxation, see "CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY PROVISIONS AFFECTING DISTRICT REVENUES AND APPROPRIATIONS - Article XIIIA of the California Constitution" and "TAX BASE FOR REPAYMENT OF BONDS" herein.

Book--E ntry Only System

The informttion in this section concerning DTC and DTC's oook--entry system has been obtained from sources that the District belie..res to be reliable, but the District takes no responsibility for the accuracy or conl)leteness thereof. The District cannot and does not give any assurances that DTC or the Direct Participants or Indirect Participants will distribute to the Beneficial Owners (a) payrrents of interest, principal or prenium if any, with respect to the Bonds, (b) certificates representing OM1ership interest in or other confirmttion or OM1ership interest in the Bonds, or (c) redemption or other notices sent to DTC or Cede & Co., its noninee, as the registered OM1er of the Bonds, or that they will so do on a timely basis or that DTC or the Direct Participants or Indirect Participants will act in the mtnner described in this Official Statement. The current "Rules" applicable to DTC are on file with the Securities and Exchange Cornnission and the current" Procedures" of DTC to be follo.ved in dealing with the Direct Participants or Indirect Participants are on file with DTC.

The DTC, New York, NY, will act as securities depository for the Bonds. The Bonds will be issued as ful ly,egi stered securities registered in the name of Cede & Co. (DTC' s partnership nominee) or such other name as may be requested b,I an authorized representative of DTC. One fully,egistered Bond certificate wi 11 be issued for each maturity of the B ands, each i n the aggregate pri nci pal amount of such mtturity, 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 NewY ork Banking Law, a member of the Federal Reserve System a "clearing corporation" within the meaning of the New York Uniform Comnercial Code, and a "clearing agency" registered pursuant to the prcwisions of Section 17A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. DTC holds and pro.tides asset servicing fcr ewer 3.6 nil lion issues of U.S. and non-U.S. equity issues, corporate and municipal debt issues, and rroney market instruments (from ewer 100 countries) that DTC's participants ("Direct Participants'') deposit with DTC. DTC also facilitates the post-trade settlement anmg Direct Participants of sales and other securities transactions in deposited securities, through electronic computerized oook--entry transfers and pledges between Direct Participants' accounts. This elininates the need for physical mcwement of securities certificates. Direct Participants include both U.S. and non-U.S. securities brokers and dealers, l::anks, trust companies, clearing corporations, and certain other organizations. DTC is a wholly-o,vned subsidiary of The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation ("DTCC"). DTCC is the holding company for DTC, National Securities Clearing Corporation and Fixed I ncorne Clearing Ccrporation, all of which are regstered clearing agencies. DTCC is o.vned b,I the users of its regulated subsidiaries. Access to the DTC system is also available to others such as both U.S. and noo-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 drectly or indirectly ("Indirect Participants"). DTC is rated "AA-+'' b,I Standard & Poor's. The DTC Rules applicable to its Participants are on file with the Securities and Exchange Comnission. More i nforrrati on about DTC can be found at www.dtcc.com

Purchases of Bonds under the DTC system must be made b,I or through Direct Participants, which will receive a credit for the Bonds on DTC's records. The o.vnership interest of each 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, ho.vever, expected to receive written confi rmati ons prcwi di ng detai Is of the transaction, as wel I as periodic statements of their

13 holdings, from the Direct or Indirect Participant through which the Beneficial owner entered into the transaction. Transfers of cwnership interests in the Bonds are to be accomplished b,I entries made on the oooks of Direct and Indirect Participants acting on behalf of Beneficial owners. Beneficial owners will not receive certificates representing their cwnership interests in the Bonds, except in the event that use of the oook--entry system for the Bonds is discontinued.

To facilitate subsequent transfers, all Bonds deposited b,I Direct Participants with DTC are registered in the name of DTC's partnership nominee, Cede & Co., or such other name as may be requested b,I an authorized representative of DTC. The deposit of Bonds with DTC and their registration in the name of Cede & Co. or such other DTC noninee do not effect any change in beneficial cwnership. DTC has no kncwledge 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 thei r holdings on behalf of their customers.

Conveyance of notices and other communications b,I DTC to Direct Participants, b,I Direct Participants to Indirect Participants, and b,I Direct Participants and Indirect Participants to Beneficial owners wi 11 be gcwerned b,I arrangements among them, suqj ect to any statutory or regulatory requirements as may be in effect from ti me to ti me. B enefi ci al owners of B ands may wish to take certai n steps to augment the transnission to them of notices of significant events with respect to the Bonds, such as redemptions, defaults, and proposed amendments to the Resolutions. For example, Beneficial owners of Bands may wish to ascertai n that the noni nee holding the B ands for thei r benefit has agreed to obtain and transmit notices to Beneficial owners. In the alternative, Beneficial owners may wish to pr0.tide their names and addresses to the registrar and request that copies of notices be pr0.ti ded directly to them

Redemption notices shall be sent to DTC. If less than all of the Bonds within an issue are being redeemed, DTC's practice is to deternine b,l lot the amount of the interest of each Direct Participant in such issue to be redeemed.

Neither DTC nor Cede & Co. (nor any other DTC noni nee) wil I consent or vote with respect to Bonds unless authorized b,I a Direct Participant in accordance with DTC's MMI Procedures. Under its usual procedures, DTC mails an Omnibus Proxy to the District 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).

Redemption proceeds and distributions on the Bonds will be made to Cede & Co., or such other nominee as may be requested b,I 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 District or the Paying Agent, on payable date in accordance with their respective holdings shewn on DTC's records. Payments b,I Participants to Beneficial owners will be gcwerned b,I 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, the Paying Agent, or the District, suqject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time to time. Payment of redemption proceeds or distributions to Cede & Co. (or such other noninee as may be requested b,I an authorized representative of DTC) is the responsibility of the District or the Paying Agent, 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.

14 DTC may discontinue pro.tiding its services as dep:isitory with respect to the Bonds at any time b,I giving reasonable notice to the District or the Paying Agent. Under such circumstances, in the event that a successor dep:isitory is not obtained, Bond certificates are required to be printed and delivered.

The District may decide to discontinue use of the system of oook--entry--only transfers through DTC (or a successor securities dep:isitory). In that event, Bond certificates will be printed and delivered toDTC.

The information in this section concerning DTC and DTC's oook--entry system has been obtained from sources that the District believes to be reliable, but the District takes no responsibility for the accuracy thereof.

Discontinuation of Book-£ ntry Only System; Payment to Beneficial Owners

So long as any of the Bonds remain outstanding, the District will cause the Paying Agent to maintain at its principal office all books and records necessary for the registration, exchange and transfer of such Bonds, which shall at all times be open to inspection b,I the District, and, upon presentation for such purp:ise, the Paying Agent shall, under such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, register, exchange or transfer or cause to be registered, exchanged or transferred, on said oooks, Bonds as pro.tided in the Resolution.

In the event that the oook--entry system described abcwe is no I anger used with respect to the Bonds, the follONing prcwisions will gcwern the payment, registration, transfer, exchange and replacement of the Bonds.

TAX BASE FOR PAYMENT OF BONDS

The inforrration in this section describes ad valorem property taxation, assessed valuation, and other rreasures of the tax base of the District. The principal of and interest on the Bonds are payable solely from the proceeds of advaloremtaxes levied and collected b,lthe County on taxable property in the District. The District's general fund is not a source for the repayment of the Bonds. Ad Valorem Property Taxation

District property taxes are assessed and collected b,I the County at the same time and on the same tax rolls as County, city and special district taxes. Assessed valuations are the same for both District and County taxing purposes.

Taxes are levied for each fiscal year on taxable real and personal property which is located in the District as of the preceding January 1. For assessment and collection purposes, property is classified either as "secured' or "unsecured' and is listed accordingly on separate parts of the assessment roll. The "secured roll" is that part of the assessment roll containing State assessed public utilities property and real property having a tax lien which is sufficient, in the opinion of the assessor, to secure payment of the taxes. Other property is assessed on the "unsecured roll." A supplemental roll is developed when property changes hands or new construction is completed. The County levies and collects all property taxes for property fallingwithin the County's taxing boundaries.

The valuation of secured property is established as of J anuary 1 and is subsequently enrol I ed in August. Property taxes on the secured roll are payable in two installments, due Ncwember 1 and February 1 of the calendar year. If unpaid, such taxes become delinquent on December 10 and April 10, respectively, and a 1036 penalty attaches to any delinquent installment plus any additional amount deternined b,I the Treasurer. After the second installment of taxes on the secured roll is delinquent, the tax collector shall collect a cost of $10 for preparing the delinquent tax records and giving notice of delinquency. Property on the secured roll with delinquent taxes is declared tax-defaulted onJ uly 1 of the calendar year. Such property may thereafter be redeemed, until the right of redemption is terminated, b,I payment of the delinquent taxes and the delinquency penalty, plus a $15 redemption fee and a redemption penalty of 1.5% per month to the time of redemption. If taxes are unpaid for a period of five years or more, the property is suqject to sale b,I the Treasurer.

17 Property taxes on the unsecured roll as of July 31 becorre delinquent if they are not paid b,I August 31 and are thereafter suqject to a delinquent penalty of 1036. Taxes added to the unsecure tax roll after July 31, if unpaid are delinquent and suqject to a penalty of 1036 on the last day of the month succeeding the month of enrollrrent. In the case of unsecured property taxes, an additional penalty of 1. 5% per month begins to accrue when such taxes remai n unpaid on the Iast day of the second month after the 1036 penalty attaches. The taxing authority has four ways of collecting unsecured personal property taxes: ( 1) a civi I action against the assessee; ( 2) fi I i ng a certificate i n the office of the county cl erk speci fyi ng certain facts i n order to obtain a j udgrrent Ii en on specific property of the assessee; ( 3) fi I i ng a certificate of delinquency for record in the county recorder's office in order to obtain a lien on specified property of the assessee; and (4) seizure and sale of personal property, imprcwerrents or possessory interests belonging or assessed to the assessee. See also"- Secured Tax Charges and Delinquencies" herein.

State law exempts from taxation $7,CXXl of the full cash value of an o.vner--occupied d.velling, but this exemption does not result in any loss of revenue to local agencies, since the State reimburses local agencies for the val ue of the exemptions.

All property is assessed using full cash value as defined b,I Article XIIIA of the State Constitution. State law pro.tides exemptions from ad valorem property taxation for certain classes of property such as churches, colleges, non-profit hospitals, and charitable institutions.

Assessed valuation grONth allo.ved under Article XIIIA (new construction, certain changes of o.vnership, 2% inflation) is allocated on the basis of "situs" among the jurisdictions that serve the tax rate area within which the grONth occurs. Local agencies and school districts share the grONth of" base" revenues from the tax rate area. Each year's grONth allocation becorres part of each agency's allocation in the follo.vingyear.

18 Econonic and other factors beyond the District's control, such as general market decline in property values, disruption in financial markets that may reduce avai I abi I ity of financing for purchasers of property, reclassification of property to a class exempt from taxation, whether b,I o.vnership or use (such as exemptions for property o.vned b,I the State and local agencies and property used for qualified education, hospital, charitable or religious purposes), or the compiete or partial destruction of the taxable property caused b,I a natural or manmade disaster, such as earthquake, flood, fire or toxic contamination, could cause a reduction in the assessed value of taxable property within the District. Any such reduction would result in a corresponding increase in the annual tax rate levied b,I the County to pay the debt service with respect to the Bonds. See "THE BONDS - Security and Sources of Payment'' herein.

Drought. On January 17, 2014, the State Gcwernor (the "Gcwernor") declared a state-wide Drought State of Emergency. As of such date, the State faced water shortfalls due to the driest year in recorded State history; the State's rivers and reservoirs were belo.v their record lo.v levels, and manual and electronic readings recorded the water content of sno.vpack at the highest elevations in the State (chiefly in the Sierra Nevada mountain range) at about 2036 of normal average for the winter season. As part of his State of Emergency declaration, the Gcwernor directed State officials to assist agricultural producers and communities that may be economically impacted b,I dry conditions. Follo.ving the Gcwernor's declaration, the California State Water Resources Control Board (the "Water Board') issued a statewide notice of water shortages and poten ti al future curtai I ment of water right diversi ans. On A pri I 1, 2015, the Gcwernor issued an executive order mandating certain temporary conservation measures, which were i mpl emented b,I means of an emergency regulation adopted b,I the Water Board on May 5, 201 5.

The temporary conservation measures have been extended and amended b,I subsequent executive orders of the Gcwernor and Water Board regulations. Most recently, on May 9, 2016, the Gcwernor issued an executive order ordering the Department of Water Resources, the Water Board and the California Public Utilities Comnission to update and extend temporary water restrictions through the end of January 2017, and to take actions to transition to permanent, long-term imprcwements in water use. Follo.ving the Gcwernor's executive order, on May 18, 2016, the Water Board adopted a localized "stress test" approach of water conservation, under which local urban water agencies are required to ensure a three-year supply of water assuning three years of drought conditions. Agencies that prqject a water shortage at the end of the three-year period under the stress test are required to impiement conservation measures through January 2017 equal to the percentage of water shortage prqjected. On February 8, 2017, the Water Board extended the existing restrictions for an additional 270 days.

The Gcwernor has issued an executive order terminating the state-wide Drought State of Emergency in light of successful conservation efforts and plentiful rain and sno.v during the 2016-17 winter season. The executive order rescinds and modifies prior executive orders, ending the emergency regulations that require stress tests and mandatory conservation standards for urban water agencies, maintaining the emergency regulations that pro.tide for development of permanent prohibitions on wasteful water use, and di recti ng the Water B oard to take acti ans to promote efficiency and conservation. The Drought State of Emergency is continued in Fresno, Kings, Tulare and Tuolumne Counties, where emergency drinking water prqj ects con ti nue.

The District cannot make any representation regarding the effects that the current drought has had or, if it should continue, may have on the value of taxable property within the District, or to what extent the drought could cause disruptions to econoni c activity within the boundaries of the District.

19 Appeals and Acjjustments of Assessed Valuations. Under California law, property o.vners may apply for a reduction of thei r property tax assessment b,I fi I i ng a written application, i n form prescri bed b,I the State Board of Equalization ("SBE"), with the appropriate county ooard of equalization or assessment appeals ooard. In most cases, the appeal is filed because the applicant belie.es that present market conditions ( such as residential home prices) cause the property to be worth Iess than its current assessed value. Any reduction in the assessment ultimately granted as a result of such appeal applies to the year for which application is made and during which the written application was filed. Such reductions are suqject to yearly reappraisals and may be adjusted back to their original values when market conditions irnprcwe. Once the property has regained its prior value, adjusted for inflation, it once again is suqject to the annual inflationary factor grONth rate allo.ved under Article XIIIA. See "CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY PROVISIONS AFFECTING DISTRICT REVENUES AND APPROPRIATIONS - Article XI I IA of the California Constitution" herein.

A second type of assessment appeal involves a challenge to the base year value of an assessed property. Appeals for reduction in the base year value of an assessment, if successful, reduce the assessment for the year in which the appeal is taken and prospectively thereafter. The base year is deternined b,I the completion date of new construction or the date of change of o.vnership. Any base year appeal must be made within four years of the change of o.vnership or new construction date.

In addition to the alx:we--described taxpayer appeals, county assessors may independently reduce assessed valuations based on changes in the market value of property, or for other factors such as the complete or partial destruction of taxable property caused b,I natural or man-made disasters such as earthquakes, floods, fire, drought or toxic contamination pursuant to relevant prcwisions of the State Constitution. See also "CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY PROVISIONS AFFECTING DISTRICT REVENUES AND APPROPRIATIONS - Article XIIIA of the California Constitution" herein. Such reductions are suqject to yearly reappraisals b,I the county assessor and may be adjusted back to their original values when real estate market conditions imprcwe. Once property has regained its prior assessed value, acjj usted for inflation, it once again is suqject to the annual inflationary grONth rate factor al lo.ved under Article XI I IA.

No assurance can be given that property tax appeals or actions b,I the County Assessor in the future will not significantly reduce the assessed valuation of property within the District.

Alternative Method of Tax Apportionment -"Teeter Plan"

Certain counties in the State operate under a statutory program entitled Alternate Method of Distribution of Tax Levies and Collections and of Tax Sale Proceeds (the 'Teeter Plan"). Under the Teeter Plan local taxing entities receive 10036 of their tax levies net of delinquencies, but do not receive interest or penalties on delinquent taxes collected b,I the county. The County has not adopted the Teeter Plan, and consequently the Teeter Plan is not available to local taxing entities within the County, such as the District. The District's receipt of property taxes is therefore subject to delinquencies.

The District participates in the California Statewide Delinquent Tax Finance Authority ("CSDTFA"). CSDTFA is a joint exercise of po.vers agency formed for the purpose of purchasing delinquent ad valorem property taxes of its members in accordance with Section 6516.6 of the

23 Gcwernment Code of the State of California. The District anticipates that CSDTFA will frorn time to ti me purchase delinquent ad valorern property tax receivables frorn the District. For the rnost recent fi seal year for which CSDTFA purchased delinquencies (the 2015-16 fiscal year), such delinquencies were purchased frorn the District at a purchase price equal to 11036 thereof. Any penalty charges collected with respect to such delinquencies will be retained b,I CSDTFA. CSDTFA does not currently purchase ad valorerntax receivables related to the payment of general obligation bonds of the District. Thus, the District's participation in CSDTFA's program does not ensure that the District will receive the timely payment of ad valorern property taxes levied to secure the Bonds. See also "-Ad Valorern Property Taxation" herein.

25 Statement of Direct and Overlapping Debt

Set forth on the follewing page is a direct and 0.terlapping debt report (the "Debt Report") prepared b,I California Municipal Statistics, Inc. effective as of February 14, 2017. The Debt Report is included for general information purposes only. The District has not reviewed the Debt Report for corrpleteness or accuracy and makes no representation in connection therewith.

The Debt Report generally includes long-term obligations sold in the public credit markets b,I public agencies whose boundaries 0.terlap the boundaries of the District in whole or in part. Such long­ term obligations generally are not payable from revenues of the District (except as indicated) nor are they necessarily obligations secured b,l landwithin the District. In many cases long-term obligations issued b,I a public agency are payable only from the general fund or other revenues of such public agency.

The table shews the percentage of each 0.terlapping entity's assessed value located within the boundaries of the District. The table also shews the corresponding portion of the cwerlapping entity's existing debt payable from property taxes levied within the District. The total amount of debt for each 0.terlappingentity is not given in the table.

The first col umn i n the table names each publ i c agency which has outstandi ng debt as of the date of the report and whose territory 0.terlaps the District in whole or in part. The second column shews the percentage of each 0.terlapping agency's assessed value located within the boundaries of the District. This percentage, multiplied b,I the total outstanding debt of each cwerlapping agency (which is not shewn in the table) produces the amount shewn in the third column, which is the apportionment of each 0.terl appi ng agency's outstanding debt to taxable property i n the District.

27 CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY PROVISIONSAFFECTI NG DISTRICT REVENUES AND APPROPRIATIONS

The principal of and interest on the Bonds are payable solely from the proceeds of an advalorem property tax levied b,I the County for the payrrent thereof. See" THE BONDS - Security and Sources of Payment'' herein. Articles XI I IA, XI 11 B, XI I IC and XI 11 D of the State Constitution, Prop:isitions 98 and 111, and certain other prcwisions of law discussed belcw, are included in this section to describe the potential effect of these Constituti anal and statutory measures on the abi I ity of the County to I evy taxes on behalf of the District and of the District to spend tax proceeds for operating and other purposes, and it should not be inferred from the inclusion of such materials that these laws irnp:ise any linitation on the ability of the County to levy taxes for payment of the principal of and interest on the Bonds.

ArticleX I I IA of the California Constitution

ArticleXIIIA ("ArticleXIIIA") of the State Constitution Ii nits the amount of advaloremtaxes on real property to 1% of "full cash value" as determined b,I the county assessor. ArticleX I I IA defines "full cash value" to mean "the county assessor's valuation of real property as shewn on the 1975-76 bill under "ful I cash value," or thereafter, the appraised value of real property when purchased, newly constructed or a change in cwnership has occurred after the 1975 assessment," suqject to exemptions in certain circumstances of property transfer or reconstruction. Deternined in this manner, the full cash value is also referred to as the "base year value." The "full cash value'' is suqject to annual aqjustment to reflect increases, not to exceed 2% for any year, or decreases in the consumer price index or comparable Iocal data, or to reflect reductions i n property val ue caused b,I damage, destruction or other factors.

Article XI I IA has been amended to all cw for temporary reductions of assessed value in instances where the fair market value of real property falls belcw the adjusted base year value described abcwe. Prop:isition 8-apprcwed b,I the voters in Ncwember of 1978-prcwides for the enrollment of the lesser of the base year value or the market value of real property, taking into account reductions in value due to damage, destruction, depreciation, obsolescence, remcwal of property, or other factors causing a sinilar decline. In these instances, the market value is required to be reviewed annually unti I the market value exceeds the base year value, acjjusted for inflation. Reductions in assessed value could result in a corresponding increase in the annual tax rate levied b,I the County to pay debt service on the Bonds. See 'THE BONDS - Security and Sources of Payment'' and "TAX BASE FOR PAYMENT OF BONDS - AssessedValuations" herein.

ArticleX I I IA requires a vote of two-thirds or more of the qualified electorate of a city, county, special district or other public agency to irnp:ise special taxes, while totally precluding the irnp:isition of any additional ad valorern sales or transaction tax on real property. ArticleX I I IA exempts from the 1% tax limitation any taxes alx:we that level required to pay debt service (a) on any indebtedness apprcwed b,I the voters prior to July 1, 1978, or (b) as the result of an amendment apprcwed b,I State voters onJ une 3, 1986, on any bonded indebtedness apprcwed b,I two-thirds or more of the votes cast b,I the voters for the acquisition or imprcwement of real property on or after July 1, 1978, or (c) bonded indebtedness incurred b,I a school district or community college district for the construction, reconstruction, rehabilitation or replacement of school facilities or the acquisition or lease of real property for school facilities, apprcwed b,I 55% or more of the votes cast on the prop:isition, but only if certain accountability measures are included in the prop:isition. The tax for payment of the Bonds falls within the exception described in (c) of the immediately preceding sentence. In addition, ArticleXIIIA requires the apprcwal of two-thirds or more of all members of the State legislature to change any State taxes for the purp:ise of increasing tax revenues.

28 Legislation I mplementingArticleXI I IA

Legislation has been enacted and amended a number of times since 1978 to implement ArticleX I I IA. Under current liM', local agencies are no longer permitted to levy directly any property tax (except to pay voter--apprcwed indebtedness). The 1% property tax is automatically levied b,I the relevant county and distributed according to a formula among taxing agencies. The formula apportions the tax roughly in proportion to the relative shares of taxes levied prior to 1979.

Increases of assessed valuation resulting from reappraisals of property due to ne.v construction, change i n cwnershi p or from the annual adjustment not to exceed ZYo are al Iocated among the various jurisdictions in the "taxing area'' based upon their respective "situs." Any such allocation made to a local agency continues as part of its allocation in future years.

All taxable property value included in this Official Statement is shewn at 10036 of taxable value (unless noted differently) and al I tax rates reflect the $1 per $100 of taxable value.

Both the United States Supreme Court and the State Supreme Court have upheld the general validity of ArticleXIIIA.

State-Assessed Utility Property

Some amount of property tax revenue of the District is derived from utility property which is considered part of a utility system with components located in many taxingjurisdictions. Underthe State Constitution, such property is assessed b,I the SBE as part of a "going concern" rather than as individual pieces of real or personal property. Such State-assessed property is allocated to the counties b,I the SBE, taxed at special county-wide rates, and the tax revenues distributed to taxingjurisdictions (including the District) according to statutory formulae generally based on the distribution of taxes in the prior year. So long as the District is not a basic aid district, taxes lost through any reduction in assessed valuation will be compensated b,I the State as equalization aid underthe State's school financing formula See "DI STRICT Fl NANCIAL INFORMATION - State Funding of Education" herein.

ArticleX 111 B of the California Constitution

ArticleXIIIB ("Article XIIIB") of the State Constitution, as subsequently amended b,I Propositions 98 and 111, respectively, limits the annual appropriations of the State and of any city, county, school district, authority or other political subdivision of the State to the level of appropriations of the particular g0.ternmental entity for the prior fiscal year, as acjjusted for changes in the cost of living and in population and for transfers in the financial responsibility for pro.tiding services and for certain declared emergencies. As amended, ArticleX 111 B defines

( a) "change in the cost of I ivi ng'' with respect to school districts to mean the percentage change in State per capita income from the preceding year, and

( b) " change i n population" with respect to a school district to mean the percentage change in the ADA of the school district from the preceding fiscal year.

For fiscal years beginning on or after July 1, 1990, the appropriations limit of each entity of g0.ternment shall be the appropriations limit for the 1986--87 fiscal year acjjusted for the changes made from that fiscal year pursuant to the pr0.tisions of ArticleX 111 B, as amended.

29 The appropriations of an entity of local gcwernrrent suqject to Article X 111 B Iirritations include the proceeds of taxes I evi ed b,I or for that entity and the proceeds of certain state sulNenti ans to that entity. "Proceeds of taxes" include, but are not lirrited to, all tax revenues and the proceeds to the entity frorn (a) regulatory licenses, user charges and user fees (but only to the extent that these proceeds exceed the reasonable costs in pro.tiding the regulation, product or service), and (b) the investrrent of tax revenues.

Appropriations suqject to !irritation do not include (a) refunds of taxes, (b) appropriations for debt service such as the Bonds, (c) appropriations required to comply with certain mandates of the courts or the federal gcwernrrent, (cl) appropriations of certain special districts, (e) appropriations for all qualified capital outlay prqjects as defined b,I the State legislature, (f) appropriations derived frorn certain fuel and vehicle taxes and (g) appropriations derived frorn certain taxes on tobacco products.

ArticleX 111 B includes a requirerrent that all revenues received b,I an entity of gcwernrrent other than the State in a fiscal year and in the fiscal year imnediately follo.ving it in excess of the amount perrritted to be appropriated during that fiscal year and the fiscal year irnrnediately follo.ving it shall be returned b,I a revision of tax rates or fee schedules within the next two subsequent fiscal years.

Article X 111 B al so includes a requi rerrent that 5036 of al I revenues received b,I the State in a fiscal year and in the fiscal year irnrnediately follo.ving it in excess of the amount perrritted to be appropriated during that fiscal year and the fiscal year imnediately follo.ving it shall be transferred and allocated to the State School Fund pursuant to Section 8.5 of Article XVI of the State Constitution. See "-Propositions 98 and 111" herein.

ArticleX 111 C and ArticleX 111 D of the California Constitution

On Ncwernber 5, 1996, the voters of the State apprcwed Proposition 218, popularly kno.vn as the "Right to Vote on Taxes Act." Proposition 218 added to the State Constitution Articles XI I IC and X 111 D (respectively, "Article XIIIC" and "Article XIIID"), which contain a number of prcwisions affecting the ability of local agencies, including school districts, to levy and collect both existing and future taxes, assessrrents, fees and charges.

According to the "Title and Surnrnary" of Proposition 218 prepared b,I the State Attorney General, Proposition 218 lirnits "the authority of local gcwernrrents to impose taxes and property,elated assessrrents, fees and charges." Arnong other things, Article XI I IC establishes that every tax is either a "general tax" (imposed for general gcwernrrental purposes) or a "special tax" (imposed for specific purposes), prohibits special purpose gcwernrrent agencies such as school districts frorn levying general taxes, and prohibits any local agency frorn imposing, extending or increasing any special tax beyond its rnaxirnurn authorized rate without a two-thirds vote; and also pro.tides that the initiative po.ver will not be limited in matters of reducing or repealing local taxes, assessrrents, fees and charges. ArticleXIIIC further pro.tides that no tax rnay be assessed on property other than ad valorern property taxes imposed in accordance with Articles X 111 and XI I IA of the State Constitution and special taxes apprcwed b,I a two-­ thirds vote under Article XI I IA, Section 4. Article X 111 D deals with assessrrents and property,elated fees and charges, and explicitly pro.tides that nothing in Article XI I IC orX 111 D will be construed to affect existing laws relating to the imposition of fees or charges as a condition of property developrrent.

The District does not impose any taxes, assessrrents, or property,elated fees or charges which are suqject to the prcwisions of Proposition 218. It does, ho.vever, receive a portion of the basic 1% ad valorern property tax levied and collected b,I the County pursuant to Article XI I IA of the State Constitution. The prcwisions of Proposition 218 rnay have an indirect effect on the District, such as b,I limiting or reducing the revenues otherwise available to other local gcwernrrents whose boundaries

30 encompass property located within the District thereby causing such local gcwernments to reduce service levels and possibly adversely affecting the value of property within the District.

Proposition 26

On Ncwernber 2, 2010, voters in the State apprcwed Proposition 26. Proposition 26 amends Article XI I IC of the State Constitution to expand the definition of "tax'' to include "any levy, charge, or exaction of any kind imposed by a local gcwernment'' except the follo.ving: (1) a charge imposed for a specific benefit conferred or privilege granted directly to the payor that is not pro.tided to those not charged, and which does not exceed the reasonable costs to the local gcwernment of conferring the benefit or granting the privilege; (2) a charge imposed for a specific gcwernment service or product pro.tided directly to the payor that is not pro.tided to those not charged, and which does not exceed the reasonable costs to the local gcwernment of pro.tiding the service or product; (3) a charge imposed for the reasonable regulatory costs to a local gcwernment for issuing licenses and permits, perforning investigations, inspections, and audits, enforcing agricultural marketing orders, and the adninistrative enforcement and aqjudication thereof; (4) a charge imposed for entrance to or use of local gcwernment property, or the purchase, rental, or lease of local gcwernment property; (5) a fine, penalty, or other monetary charge imposed by the judicial branch of gcwernment or a local gcwernment, as a result of a violation of law; (6) a charge imposed as a condition of property development; and (7) assessments and property,elated fees imposed in accordance with the prcwisions of Article X 111 D. Proposition 26 pro.tides that the local gcwernment bears the burden of pro.ting by a preponderance of the evidence that a levy, charge, or other exaction is not a tax, that the amount is no rnore than necessary to ccwer the reasonable costs of the gcwernmental activity, and that the manner in which those costs are allocated to a payor bear a fair or reasonable relationshiptothe payor's burdens on, or benefits received from, the gcwernmental activity.

Propositions 98 and 111

On Ncwernber 8, 1988, voters of the State apprcwed Proposition 98, a combined initiative constitutional amendment and statute called the "Classroom Instructional lrnprcwement and Accountability Act'' (the "Accountability Act"). Certain prcwisions of the Accountability Act have, ho.vever, been modified by Proposition 111, discussed belo.v, the prcwisions of which became effective onJ uly 1, 1990. The Accountability Act changed State funding of public education belo.v the university level and the operation of the State's appropriations Ii nit. The Accountability Act guarantees State funding for K-12 school districts and community college districts (hereinafter referred to collectively as "K-14 school districts") at a level equal to the greater of (a) the same percentage of the State general fund revenues as the percentage appropriated to such districts in the 1986-S7 fiscal year, and (b) the amount actually appropriated to such districts from the State general fund in the previous fiscal year, acjjusted for increases in enrollment and changes in the cost of living. The Accountability Act permits the State legislature to suspend this formula for a one-year period.

The Accountability Act also changed ho.vtax revenues in excess of the State appropriations Ii nit are distributed. Any excess State tax revenues up to a specified amount are, instead of being returned to taxpayers, to be transferred to K-14 school districts. Any such transfer to K-14 school districts would be excluded frorn the appropriations lirnit for K-14 school districts and the K-14 school district appropriations Ii nit for the next year would automatically be increased by the amount of such transfer. These additional moneys would enter the base funding calculation for K-14 school districts for subsequent years, creating further pressure on other portions of the State budget, particularly if revenues decline in a year follo.ving an ArticleX 111 B surplus. The rnaxirnurn amount of excess tax revenues which can be transferred to K-14 school districts is 4% of the ninirnurn State spending for education mandated by the Accountability Act.

31 Since the Accountability Act is unclear in some details, there can be no assurances that the State legislature or a court might not interpret the Accountability Act to require a different percentage of State general fund revenues to be allocated to K-14 school districts, or to apply the relevant percentage to the State's budgets in a different way than is prop:ised in the Gcwernor's Budget.

On June 5, 1990, the voters of the State appr0.ted Prop:isition 111 (Senate Constitutional Amendment No. 1) called the 'Traffic Congestion Relief and Spending Linitation Act of 1990'' ("Prop:isition 111") which further rnodified ArticleXIIIB and Sections 8 and 8.5 of Article XVI of the State Constitution with respect to appropriations linitations and school funding priority and allocation.

The most significant pr0.tisions of Prop:isition 111 are summarized as folio.vs:

a. Annual Adjustments to Spending Linit. The annual aqjustments to the Article XIIIB spending limit were liberalized to be more closely linked to the rate of economic grONth. Instead of being tied to the Consumer Price Index, the "change in the cost of Iivi ng'' is no.v measured b,I the change in State per capita personal income. The definition of "change in population" specifies that a portion of the State's spending limit is to be aqj usted to reflect changes i n school attendance.

b. Treatment of Excess Tax Revenues. "Excess" tax revenues with respect toArticleX 111 B are no.v deternined based on a two-year cycle, so that the State can avoid having to return to taxpayers excess tax revenues in one year if its appropriations in the next fiscal year are under its limit. In addition, the Prop:isition 98 prcwision regarding excess tax revenues was rnodified. After any two-year period, if there are excess State tax revenues, 5036 of the excess are to be transferred to K -14 school districts with the balance returned to taxpayers; under prior law, 10036 of excess State tax revenues went to K-14 school districts, but only upto a maximum of 4% of the schools' minimum funding level. Also, reversing prior law, any excess State tax revenues transferred to K-14 school districts are not built into the school districts' base expenditures for calculating their entitlement for State aid in the next year, and the State's appropriations Ii nit is not to be increased b,I this amount.

c. Exclusions from Spending Linit. Two exceptions were added to the calculation of appropriations which are suqject to the Article XIIIB spending limit. First, there are excluded all appropriations for "qualified capital outlay prqjects" as defined b,I the State legislature. Second, there are excluded any increases in gasoline taxes abOJe the 1990 level (then nine cents per gallon), sales and use taxes on such increment in gasoline taxes, and increases in receipts fromvehicleweight fees abOJethe levels in effect onJanuary 1, 1990. These latter pr0.tisions were necessary to make effective the transportation funding package appr0.ted b,I the State I egi slature and the Gcwernor, which was expected to raise 0.ter $15 billion in additional taxes from 1990 through 2CXXl to fund transportation programs.

d. Recalculation of Appropriations Limit. TheArticleXIIIB appropriations linit for each unit of gcwernment, including the State, is to be recalculated beginning in fiscal year 1990-91. It is based on the actual Ii mit for fiscal year 1986-S7, aqj usted forward to 1990- 91 as if Prop:isition 111 had been in effect.

e. School Funding Guarantee. There is a complex adjustment in the formula enacted in Prop:isition 98 which guarantees K-14 school districts a certain amount of State general fund revenues. Under prior law, K-14 school districts were guaranteed the greater of (1)

32 40.9% of State general fund revenues ('Test 1") or (2) the amount appropriated in the prior year aqjusted for changes in the cost of living (rreasured as in Article XIIIB b,I reference to per capita personal income) and enrollrrent ('Test 2"). Under Proposition 111, K -14 school districts wi 11 receive the greater of ( 1) Test 1, ( 2) Test 2, or ( 3) a thi rd test ('Test 3"), which will replace Test 2 in any year when grcwth in per capita State general fund revenues from the prior year is less than the annual grcwth in the State per capital personal income. Under Test 3, K-14 school districts will receive the amount appropriated in the prior year acjjusted for change in enrollrrent and per capita State general fund revenues, plus an additional small acjjustrrent factor. If Test 3 is used in any year, the difference between Test 3 and Test 2 will become a "credit'' to schools which wi 11 be paid in future years when State general fund revenue grcwth exceeds personal income grcwth.

Proposition 39

On Ncwerrber 7, 2000, State voters apprcwed an arnendrrent (commonly kno.vn as Proposition 39) to the State Constitution. This arrendrrent (1) al lo.vs school facilities bond rreasures to be apprcwed b,I 55% (rather than two-thirds) of the voters in local elections and pernits property taxes to exceed the current 1% I i mi t in order to repay the bonds and ( 2) changes exi sti ng statutory Iaw regardi ng charter school faci Iiti es. As adopted, the constitutional arnendrrents may be changed only with another State.vi de vote of the people. The statutory prcwisions could be changed b,I a majority vote of both houses of the State legislature and apprcwal b,I the Gcwernor, but only to further the purposes of the proposition. The local school jurisdictions affected b,I this proposition are K-12 school districts, including the District, community college districts, and county offices of education. As noted abcwe, the State Constitution previously I imited property taxes to 1% of the value of property. Prior to the apprcwal of Proposition 30, property taxes could only exceed this limit to pay for (1) any local gcwernrrent debts apprcwed b,I the voters prior toJ uly 1, 1978 or (2) bonds to acquire or imprcwe real property that receive two-thirds voter apprcwal after J uly 1, 1978.

The 55% vote requirerrent authorized b,I Proposition 39 applies only if the local bond measure presented to the voters includes: (1) a requirerrent that the bond funds can be used only for construction, rehabilitation, equipping of school facilities, or the acquisition or lease of real property for school facilities; (2) a specific list of school prqjects to be funded and certification that the school board has evaluated safety, class size reduction, and information technology needs in developing the list; and (3) a requirerrent that the school board conduct annual, independent financial and performance audits until all bond funds have been spent to ensure that the bond funds have been used only for the prqjects I isted in the rreasure. Legislation apprcwed in June 2000 placed certain linitations on local school bonds to be apprcwed b,I 55% of the voters. These prcwisions require that the tax rate per $100,000 of taxable property value prqjected to be levied as the result of any single election be no more than $60 (for a unified school district), $30 (for a high school or elerrentary school district, such as the District), or $25 (for a community college district) when assessed valuation is prqjected to increase in accordance with Article XI I IA of the State Constitution. These requi rerrents are not part of Proposition 39 and can be changed with a majority vote of both houses of the State legislature and apprcwal b,I the Gcwernor. See" -Article XI I IA of the California Constitution" herein.

J arvisvs. Connell

On May 29, 2002, the State Court of Appeal for the Second District decided the case of Ho.vard Jarvis Taxpayers Association, et al. v. Kathleen Connell (as Controller of the State). The Court of Appeal held that either a final budget bill, an errergency appropriation, a self-executing authorization pursuant to state statutes (such as continuing appropriations) or the State Constitution or a federal mandate is

33 necessary for the State Controller to disburse funds. The foregoing requirerrent could apply to amounts budgeted b,I the District as being received from the State. To the extent the holding in such case would apply to State payrrents reflected in the District's budget, the requirerrent that there be either a final budget bill or an errergency appropriation may result in the delay of such payrrents to the District if such required legislative action is delayed, unless the payrrents are self-executing authorizations or are suqject to a federal mandate. On May 1, 2003, the State Suprerre Court upheld the holding of the Court of Appeal, stating that the Controller is not authorized under State law to disburse funds prior to the enactrrent of a budget or other proper appropriation, but under federal law, the Controller is required, notwithstanding a budget impasse and the limitations imposed b,I State law, to tirrely pay those State employees who are suqject to the ninimum wage and cwertirre compensation prcwisions of the federal Fair Labor Standards Act.

Proposition lA and Proposition 22

On Ncwember 2, 2004, State voters apprcwed Proposition lA, which arrends the State Constitution to significantly reduce the State's authority ewer major local gcwernrrent revenue sources. Under Proposition lA, the State cannot (i) reduce local sales tax rates or alterthe rrethod of allocating the revenue generated b,I such taxes, (ii) shift property taxes from local gcwernrrents to schools or community colleges, (iii) change ho.v property tax revenues are shared among local gcwernrrents without two-third apprcwal of borh houses of the State legislature or (iv) decrease Vehicle License Fee revenues without pro.tiding local gcwernrrents with equal replacerrent funding. Proposition lA does allo.v the State to apprcwe voluntary exchanges of local sales tax and property tax revenues among local gcwernrrents within a county. Proposition lA also amends the State Constitution to require the State to suspend certain State laws creating mandates in any year that the State does not fully reimburse local gcwernrrents for their costs to comply with the mandates. This prcwision does not apply to mandates relating to schools or community col I eges or to those mandates relating to employee rights.

Proposition 22, The Local Taxpayer, Public Safety, and Transportation Protection Act, apprcwed b,I the voters of the State on Ncwember 2, 2010, prohibits the State from enacting ne.v laws that require redevelopment agencies to shift funds to schools or other agencies and eliminates the State's authority to shift property taxes temporarily during a severe financial hardship of the State. In addition, Proposition 22 restricts the State's authority to use State fuel tax revenues to pay debt service on state transportation bonds, to borro.v or change the distribution of state fuel tax revenues, and to use vehicle license fee revenues to reimburse local gcwernrrents for state mandated costs. Proposition 22 impacts resources in the State's general fund and transportation funds, the State's main funding source for schools and community colleges, as well as universities, prisons and health and social services programs. According to an analysis of Proposition 22 submitted b,I the Legislative Analyst's Office (the "LAO") on July 15, 2010, the expected reduction in resources available for the State to spend on these other programs as a consequence of the passage of Proposition 22 was expected to be approximately $1 billion in fiscal year 2010-11, with an estimated i mrrediate fiscal effect equal to approximately 1% of the State's total general fund spending. The longer-term effect of Proposition 22, according to the LAO analysis, will be an increase in the State's general fund costs b,I approximately $1 bi 11 ion annually for several decades. See also "DISTRICT FINANCIAL INFORMATION - Other Revenue Sources - Redeveloprrent Revenue" herein.

Propositions 30 and 55

On Ncweniber 6, 2012, voters of the State apprcwed the Temporary Taxes to Fund Education, Guaranteed Local Public Safety Funding, Initiative Constitutional Arrendrrent (also kno.vn as "Proposition 30''), which temporarily increased the State Sales and Use Tax and personal incorre tax rates on higher i ncornes. For personal i ncorre taxes imposed beginning in the taxable year comrrenci ng

34 January 1, 2012 and ending December 31, 2018, Prop:isition 30 increases the marginal personal income tax rate b,I: (i) 1% for taxable income ewer $250,000 but less than $300,001 for single filers (ewer $500,000 but less than $600,001 for joint filers and ewer $340,000 but less than $408,001 for head--of­ household filers), (ii) 2% for taxable incorre ewer $300,000 but less than $500,001 for single filers (ewer $600,000 but less than $1,000,001 for joint filers and ewer $408,000 but less than $680,001 for head--of­ household filers), and (iii) 3% for taxable income ewer $500,000 for single filers (ewer $1,000,000 for joint filers and ewer $680,000 for head-of-household filers).

The California Children's Education and Health Care Protection Act of 2016 (also kno.vn as "Prop:isition 55") is a constitutional arnendrrent apprcwed b,I the voters of the State on Ncwember 8, 2016. Prop:isition 55 extends the increases to personal incorre tax rates for high-income taxpayers that were apprcwed as part of Prop:isition 30 through 2030. Prop:isition 55 did not extend the terrporary State Sales and Use Tax rate increase enacted under Prop:isition 30, which expired as ofJanuary 1, 2017.

The revenues generated from the personal income tax increases will be included in the calculation of the Prop:isition 98 Minimum Funding Guarantee (defined herein) for school districts and community college districts. See "CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY PROVISIONS AFFECTING DISTRICT REVENUES AND APPROPRIATIONS - Prop:isitions 98 and 111" herein. From an accounting perspective, the revenues generated from the personal income tax increases are being dep:isited into the State account created pursuant to Prop:isition 30 called the Education Protection Account (the" EPA"). Pursuantto Prop:isition 30, funds in the EPA will be allocated quarterly, with 8936 of such funds pro.tided to schools districts and 11 % pro.tided to community col I ege districts. The funds will be distributed to school districts and community college districts in the same manner as existing unrestricted per-student funding, except that no school district will receive less than $200 per unit of ADA and no community college district will receive less than $100 per full tirre equivalent student. The gcwerning ooard of each school district and community college district is granted sole authority to deternine ho.v the moneys received from the EPA are spent, pro.tided that the appropriate gcwerning ooard is required to make these spending determinations in open session at a public rreeting and such local gcwerning ooard is prohibited from using any funds from the EPA for salaries or benefits of adninistrators or any other administrative costs.

Proposition 2

On Ncwember 4, 2014, voters apprcwed the Rainy Day Budget Stabilization Fund Act (also kno.vn as "Prop:isition 2"). Prop:isition 2 is a legislatively,eferred constitutional arrendrrent which makes certain changes to State budgeting practices, including substantially revising the conditions under which transfers are made to and from the State's Budget Stabilization Account (the" BSA") established b,I the California Balanced B udgetAct of 2004 (also kno.vn as Prop:isition 58).

Under Prop:isition 2, and beginning in fiscal year 2015-16 and each fiscal year thereafter, the State wi 11 generally be required to annually transfer to the BSA an amount equal to 1. 5% of estimated State general fund revenues (the "Annual BSA Transfer"). Supplerrental transfers to the BSA (a "Supplerrental BSA Transfer") are also required in any fiscal year in which the estimated State general fund revenues that are allocable to capital gains taxes exceed 836 of the total estimated general fund tax revenues. Such excess capital gains taxes-net of any portion thereof o.ved to K-14 school districts pursuant to Prop:isition 98-will be transferred to the BSA. Prop:isition 2 also increases the maximum size of the BSA to an amount equal to 1036 of estimated State general fund revenues for any given fiscal year. In any fiscal year in which a required transfertothe BSA would result in an amount in excess of the 1036 threshold, Prop:isition 2 requires such excess to be expended on State infrastructure, including deferred maintenance.

35 Forthe first 15-year period ending with the 2029-30 fiscal year, Proposition 2 pr0.tides that half of any required transfer to the BSA, either annual or supplerrental, must be appropriated to reduce certain State liabilities, including making certain payrrents o.ved to K-14 school districts, repaying State interfund borro.ving, reimbursing local g0.ternrrents for State mandated services, and reducing or prefunding accrued liabilities associated with State-level pension and retirerrent benefits. Follo.ving the initial 15-year period, the G0.ternor and the Legislature are given discretion to apply up to half of any required transfer to the BSA to the reduction of such State liabilities. Any amount not applied to.vards such reduction must be transferred to the BSA or applied to infrastructure, as described alx:we.

Proposition 2 changes the conditions under which the G0.ternor and the Legislature may draw upon or reduce transfers to the BSA. The G0.ternor does not retain unilateral discretion to suspend transfers to the B SA, nor does the L egi sl ature retain discretion to transfer funds from the BSA for any reason, as previously pr0.ti ded b,I I aw. Rather, the G0.ternor must declare a "budget errergency ," defined as an errergency wi thi n the rreani ng of Article X 111 B of the Constitution or a deterni nation that esti mated resources are inadequate to fund State general fund expenditures, for the current or ensuing fiscal year, at a level equal to the highest level of State spending within the three imrrediately preceding fiscal years. Any such declaration must be follo.ved b,I a legislative bill pr0.tiding for a reduction or transfer. Draws on the BSA are limited to the amount necessary to address the budget errergency, and no draw in any fi seal year may exceed 5036 of the funds on deposit in the BSA uni ess a budget errergency was declared in the preceding fiscal year.

Proposition 2 also requires the creation of the Public School System Stabilization Account (the "PSSSA") into which transfers will be made in any fiscal year in which a Supplerrental BSA Transfer is required (as described abOJe). Such transfer will be equal to the portion of capital gains taxes alx:we the 836 threshold that would otherwise be paid to K -14 school districts as part of the mini mum funding guarantee. A transferto the PSSSA will only be made if certain additional conditions are rret, as folio.vs: (i) the minimum funding guarantee was not suspended in the immediately preceding fiscal year, (ii) the operative Proposition 98 formula for the fiscal year in which a PSS SA transfer might be made is "Test 1," (iii) no maintenance factor obligation is being created in the budgetary legislation for the fiscal year in which a PSSSA transfer night be made, (iv) all prior maintenance factor obligations have been fully repaid, and (v) the ninimum funding guarantee for the fiscal year in which a PSSSA transfer might be made is higher than the imrrediately preceding fiscal year, as acjjusted for ADA grONth and cost of living. Proposition 2 caps the size of the PSSSA at 1036 of the estimated minimum guarantee in any fiscal year, and any excess funds must be paid to K-14 school districts. Reductions to any required transfer to the PSSSA, or draws on the PSSSA, are suqject to the sarre budget errergency requirerrents described alx:we. Ho.vever, Proposition 2 also mandates draws on the PSSSA in any fiscal year in which the estimated ninimum funding guarantee is less than the prior year's funding level, as acjjusted for ADA grONth and cost of Iivi ng.

Proposition 51

The Kindergarten Through Community College Public Education Facilities Bond Act of 2016 (also kno.vn as Proposition 51) is a voter initiative that was appr0.ted b,I voters on N0.tember 8, 2016. Proposition 51 authorizes the sale and issuance of $9 billion in general obligation bonds for the mw construction and modernization of K-14 facilities.

K-12 School Facilities. Proposition 51 includes $3 billion for the new construction of K-12 facilities and an additional $3 billion for the modernization of existing K-12 facilities. K-12 school districts will be required to pay for 5036 of the new construction costs and 4036 of the modernization costs with local revenues. If a school districts lack sufficient local funding, it may apply for additional state grant funding, up to 10036 of the prqj ect costs. I n addition, a total of $1 bi 11 ion wi 11 be avai I able for the 36 mxlernization and mw construction of charter school ($500 million) and technical education ($500 million) facilities. Generally, 5036 of modernization and new construction prqject costs for charter school and technical education facilities rnust corre frorn local revenues. Ho.vever, schools that cannot ccwer their local share for these two types of prqjects may apply for state loans. State loans rnust be repaid ewer a rnaxirnurn of 30years for charter school facilities and 15 years for career technical education facilities. For career technical education facilities, state grants are capped at $3 million for a new facility and $1.5 for a modernized facility. Charter schools rnust be deerred financially sound before prqject apprcwal.

Cornrnunity College Facilities. Prop:isition 51 includes $2 billion for cornrnunity college district facility prqjects, including buying land, constructing new buildings, modernizing existing buildings, and purchasing equipment. In order to receive funding, cornrnunity college districts rnust subnit prqject prop:isals to the Chancellor of the cornrnunity college system, who then decides which prqjects to subnit to the Legislature and Gcwernor based on a scoring system that factors in the amount of local funds contributed to the prqject. The Gcwernor and Legislature will select arnong eligible prqjects as part of the annual state budget process.

The District makes no guarantees that it will either pursue or qualify for Prop:isition 51 state facilities funding.

Future Initiatives

Article XIIIA, Article XIIIB, Article XIIIC and Article XIIID of the State Constitution and Prop:isitions 22, 26, 30, 39, 98, 55 and 51 were each adopted as rreasures that qualified for the ballot pursuant to the State's initiative process. Frorn tirre to tirre other initiative rreasures could be adopted further affecting District revenues or the District's abi I ity to expend revenues. The nature and i rnpact of these rreasures cannot be anticipated b,I the District.

DISTRICT FINANCIAL INFORMATION

The information in this section concerning the State funding of public education is pro.tided as supplerrentary information only, and it should not be inferred frornthe inclusion of this information in this Official Staterrent that the principal of or interest on the Bonds are payable frornthe general fund of the District. The principal of and interest on the Bonds are payable solely frornthe proceeds of an ad valorern property tax which is required to be levied b,I the County in the District in an amount sufficient for the payrrentthereof. See" THE BONDS - Security and Sources of Payrrent" herein. State Funding of Education

School district revenues consist primarily of guaranteed State moneys, local property taxes and funds received frorn the State in the forrn of categorical aid under ongoing programs of local assistance. All State aid is suqject to the appropriation of funds in the State's annual budget.

Revenue Li nit Funding. Previously, school districts operated under general purpose revenue limits established b,I the State Departrrent of Education. In general, revenue Ii nits were calculated for each school district b,I multiplying the ADA for such district b,I a base revenue lirnit per unit of ADA. Revenue Ii nit calculations were suqject to adjustrrent in accordance with a number of factors designed to pro.tide cost of living adjustrrents ("COLAs") and to equalize revenues arnong school districts of the sarre type. Funding of a school district's revenue Ii nit was pro.tided b,I a nix of local property taxes and State apportionrrents of basic and equalization aid. Since fiscal year 2013-14, school districts have been funded based on uniform system of funding grants assigned to certain grade spans. See" -Local Control Funding Formula'' herein.

Local Control Funding Formula. State Assembly Bill 97 (Stats. 2013, Chapter 47) ("AB 97'), enacted as part of the fiscal year 2013-14 State budget, established the current system for funding school districts, charter schools and county offices of education. Certain prcwisions of AB 97were amended and clarified b,I Senate B ii I 91 (Stats. 2013, Chapter 49) (" SB 91 ").

The primary component of AB 97, as amended b,I SB 91, is the implementation of the Local Control Funding Formula ("LCFF"), which replaced the revenue Ii nit funding system for deternining State apportionments, as well as the majority of categorical program funding. State allocations are pro.tided on the basis of target base funding grants per unit of ADA (a" Base Grant") assigned to each of four grade spans. Each Base Grant is suqject to certain acjjustments and add-ons, as discussed belo.v. Full implementation of the LCFF is expected to occur ewer a period of several fiscal years. Beginning in fiscal year 2013-14, an annual transition acjjustment has been calculated for each school district, equal to such district's proportionate share of appropriations included in the State budget to close the gap between the prior-year funding level and the target allocation follo.ving full implementation of the LCFF. In each year, school districts will have the same proportion of their respective funding gaps closed, with dollar amounts varying depending on the size of a district' s funding gap.

The Base Grants per unit of ADA for each grade span are as folio.vs: (i) $6,845 for grades K-3; (ii) $6,947 for grades 4-6; (iii) $7,154 for grades 7-8; and (iv) $8,289 for grades 9-12. Beginning in fiscal year 2013-14, the Base Grants are to be acjjusted for COLAs b,I applying the implicit price deflator for gcwernment goods and services. Follo.ving full implementation of the LCFF, the prcwision of COLAs will be suqject to appropriation for such acjjustment in the annual State budget. The differences among Base Grants are linked to differentials in statewide average revenue limit rates b,I district type, and are intended to recognize the generally higher costs of education at higher grade levels. See" - State Budget Measures" herein for information on the acjj usted Base Grants pro.tided for b,I current State budgetary legislation.

38 The Base Grants for grades K-3 and 9-12 are suqject to acjjustments of 10.4% and 2.6%, respectively, to ccwer the costs of class size reduction in early grades and the prcwision of career technical education in high schools. Follcwing full irrplementation of the LCFF, and unless otherwise collectively bargained for, school districts serving students in grades K-3 must maintain an average class enrollment of 24 or fewer students in grades K-3 at each school site in order to continue receiving the acjjustment to the K-3 Base Grant. Such school districts must also make progress tcwards this class size reduction goal in proportion to the grcwth in their funding ewer the implementation period. Additional add-ons are also pro.tided to school districts that received categorical block grant funding pursuant to the Targeted Instructional I rrprcwement and Home-to-School Transportation programs during fiscal year 2012-13.

School districts that serve students of linited English proficiency ("EL" students), students from lcw income families that are eligible for free or reduced priced meals(" LI" students) and foster youth are eligible to receive additional funding grants. Enrollment counts are unduplicated, such that students may not be counted as both EL and LI (foster youth automatically meet the eligibility requirements for free or reduced priced meals, and are therefore not discussed separately herein). A supplemental grant add-on (each, a "Supplemental Grant") is authorized for school districts that serve EL;ll students, equal to 2036 of the applicable Base Grant multiplied b,I such districts' percentage of unduplicated EL;LI student enrollment. School districts whose EL;ll populations exceed 55% of their total enrollment are eligible for a concentration grant add-on (each, a "Concentration Grant") equal to 5036 of the applicable Base Grant multiplied the percentage of such district's unduplicated EL;LI student enrollment in excess of the 55% threshold.

The follcwing table shews a breakdcwn of the District's ADA b,I grade span, total enrollment, and the percentage of EL ;LI student enrol I ment, for fi seal years 2012-13 through 2016-17.

39 For certain school districts that would have received greater funding levels under the prior revenue limit system, the LCFF pro.tides for a permanent economic reccwery target ("ERT") add-on, equal to the difference between the revenue limit allocations such districts would have received underthe prior system in fiscal year 2020-21, and the target LCFF allocations o.ved to such districts in the same year. To derive the prqjected funding levels, the LCFF assumes the discontinuance of deficit revenue linit funding, implementation of COLAs in fiscal years 2014-15 through 2020-21, and restoration of categorical funding to pre-recession levels. The ERT add-on will be paid incrementally ewer the LCFF implementation period. The District does not qualify forthe ERT add-on.

The sum of a school district's acjjusted Base, Supplemental and Concentration Grants will be multiplied b,I such district's P-2 ADA for the current or prior year, whichever is greater (with certain acjjustments applicable to small school districts). This funding amount, together with any applicable ERT or categorical block grant add-ons, will yield a district's total LCFF allocation. Generally, the amount of annual State apportionments received b,I a school district wi 11 amount to the difference between such total LCFF allocation and such district's share of applicable local property taxes. Most school districts receive a significant portion of their funding from such State apportionments. As a result, decreases in State revenues may significantly affect appropriations made b,I the State legislature to school districts.

Certain schools districts, kno.vn as "basic aid' districts, have allocable local property tax collections that equal or exceed such districts' total LCFF allocation, and result in the receipt of no State apportionment aid. Basic aid school districts receive only special categorical funding, which is deemed to satisfy the "basic aid' requirement of $120 per student per year guaranteed b,I Article IX, Section 6 of the State Constitution. The implication for basic aid districts is that the legislatively determined allocations to school districts, and other politically deternined factors, are less significant in determining their primary funding sources. Rather, property tax grONth and the local econoITTy' are the primary deterninants. The District does not currently qualify as a basic aid district.

Accou ntabi Ii ty. Regul ati ons adopted b,I the State Board of Education require that school districts increase or imprcwe services for EL;LI students in proportion to the increase in funds apportioned to such districts on the basis of the number and concentration of such EL;LI students, and detail the conditions under which school districts can use supplemental or concentration funding on a school-wide or district­ wide basis.

School districts are also required to adopt local control and accountability plans ("LCAPs") disclosing annual goals for all students, as well as certain numerically significant student subgroups, to be achieved in eight areas of State priority identified b,I the L CFF. L CAPs may also specify additional local priorities. LCAPs must specify the actions to be taken to achieve each goal, including actions to correct identified deficiencies with regard to areas of State priority. Beginning in fiscal year 2014-15, LCAPs have been required to be adopted ccwering a period of three fiscal years, and updated annually. The State Board of Education has adopted a tempi ate L CAP for use b,I school districts.

Support and Intervention. AB 97, as amended b,I SB 91, establishes a ne.v system of support and intervention to assist school districts in meeting the performance expectations outlined in their respective LCAPs. School districts must adopt their LCAPs (or annual updates thereto) in tandem with their annual operating budgets, and not later than five days thereafter subnit such LCAPs or updates to their respective county superintendents of schools. On or before August 15 of each year, a county superintendent may seek clarification regarding the contents of a district's LCAP (or annual update thereto), and the district is required to respond to such a request within 15 clays. Within 15 days of receiving such a response, the county superintendent can submit non-binding recommenclati ons for amending the LCAP or annual update, and such recommendations must be considered b,I the respective school district at a public hearing within 15 clays. A district's LCAP or annual update must be apprcwed

40 b,I the county superintendent b,I October 8of each year if the superintendent deternines that (i) the LCAP or annual update adheres to the State template, and (ii) the district's budgeted expenditures are sufficient to implement the actions and strategies outl i ned i n the L CAP.

A school district is required to receive additional support if its respective LCAP or annual update thereto is not apprcwed, if the district requests technical assistance from its respective county superintendent, or if the district does not i mprcwe student achievement across more than one State priority for one or more student subgroups. Such support can include a review of a district's strengths and weaknesses in the eight State priority areas, or the assignment of an academe expert to assist the district in identifying and implementing programs designed to imprcwe outcomes. Assistance may be pro.tided b,I the California Collaborative for Educational Excellence, a state agency created b,I the LCFF and charged with assisting school districts with achieving the goals set forth in their LCAPs. On or before October 1, 2015, the State Board of Education is required to develop rubrics to assess school district performance and the need for support and intervention.

The State Superintendent of Public Instruction (the "State Superintendent") is further authorized, with the apprcwal of the State Board of Education, to intervene in the management of persistently underperforning school districts. The State Superintendent may intervene directly or assign an academic trustee to act on his or her behalf. In so ck:ling, the State Superintendent is authorized to (i) modify a district's LCAP, (ii) impose budget revisions designed to imprcwe student outcomes, and (iii) stay or rescind actions of the local gcwerning board that would prevent such district from imprcwing student outcomes; pro.tided, hew ever, that the State Superi ntendent is not authorized to rescind an action requi red b,I a I ocal col I ective bargaining agreement.

Other State Sources. In addition to State allocations deternined pursuant to the LCFF, the District receives other State revenues consisting primarily of restricted revenues designed to implement State mandated programs. Beginning in fiscal year 2013-14, categorical spending restrictions associated with a majority of State mandated programs were eliminated, and funding for these programs was folded into the LCFF. Categorical funding for certain programs was excluded from the LCFF, and school districts wi 11 continue to receive restricted State revenues to fund these programs.

Other Revenue Sources

Federal and Local Sources. The federal gcwernment pro.tides funding for several of the District's programs, including special education programs, programs underthe No Child Left Behind Act, and specialized programs such as Drug Free Schools, I nncwative Strategies, and Vocational & Applied Technology. In addition, the District may receive additional local revenues beyond local property tax collections, such as leases and rentals, interest earnings, interagency services, foundation contributions, developer fees (as discussed belcw), redevelopment revenues (as discussed belcw).

41 De..reloper Fees. The District receives de.teloper fees of $3.20 per square foot for residential de..relopment, $0.51 per square foot for commercial de.telopment, and $0.42 per square foot for hotel;tnotel de.teloprrent pursuant to Gcwernment Code Section 65995 (the "Developer Fees"). De..reloper Fees received b,I the District are deposited into the District's Capital Facilities Fund and, pursuant to State liM', rnay only be used to construct or reconstruct certain school facilities in order accommodate grcwths in student enrollment. The follo.ving table lists the De..reloper Fees collected for fiscal years 2012-13 through 2016-17.

Rede..relopment Revenue. The District receives pass-through tax increment re..renue ("Redeveloprrent Re..renue'') from several former rede.telopment agencies within the boundaries of the District. The Rede..reloprrent Revenue received b,I the District is deposited directly into the general fund of the District and is offset against the L CFF apportionments from the State.

On December 30, 2011, the State Supreme Court issued its decision in the case of California Rede.telopment Association v. Matosantos (" Matosantos''), finding ABX 1 26, a trailer bill to the 2011-12 State budget, to be constitutional. As a result, all redeveloprrent agencies in the State ceased to exist as a matter of IiM' on February 1, 2012.

ABXl 26 was modified b,I Asserrbly Bill No. 1484 (Chapter 26, Statutes of 2011-12) ("AB 1484"), which, together with ABxl 26, is referred to herein as the "Dissolution Act." The Dissolution Act pro.tides that all rights, po.vers, duties and obligations of a rede.telopment agency under the California Community Rede..reloprrent LiM' that have not been repealed, restricted or re..rised pursuant to ABxl 26 will be vested in a successor agency, generally the county or city that authorized the creation of the rede..relopment agency (each, a "Successor Agency"). All property tax re..renues that would have been al Iocated to a rede.tel opment agency, Iess the corresponding county auditor-control Ier' s cost to adrni ni ster the allocation of property tax re..renues, are no.v allocated to a corresponding Redeveloprrent Property Tax Trust Fund ('Trust Fund"), to be used for the payment of pass-through payments to local taxing entities, and thereafterto bonds of the former rede..relopment agency and any "enforceable obligations'' of the Successor Agency, as well as to pay certain administrative costs. The Dissolution Act defines "enforceable obligations" to include bonds, loans, legally required payments, judgments or settlements, Iegai binding and enforceable obi i gati ons, and certain other obi i gati ons.

Arnong the various types of enforceable obligations, the first priority for payment is tax allocation bonds issued b,I the former rede.teloprrent agency; second is re..renue bonds, which rnay have been issued b,I the host city, but only where the tax increment revenues were pledged for repayment and only where other pledged revenues are insufficient to rnake scheduled debt service payments; third is adninistrative costs of the Successor Agency, not to exceed $250,000 in any year, to the extent such costs have been

42 appr0.ted in an adrrinistrative budget; then, fourth tax revenues in the Trust Fund in excess of such amounts, if any, will be allocated as residual distributions to local taxing entities in the sarre proportions as other tax revenues. More0.ter, all unencumbered cash and other assets of forrrer redeveloprrent agencies will also be allocated to local taxing entities in the sarre proportions as tax revenues. Notwithstanding the foregoing portion of this paragraph, the order of payrrent is suqject to mxlification in the event a Successor Agency tirrely reports to the State Controller and the Departrrent of Finance that application of the foregoing will leave the Successor Agency with amounts insufficient to make scheduled payrrents on enforceable obligations. If the county auditor-controller verifies that the Successor Agency will have insufficient amounts to make scheduled payrrents on enforceable obligations, it shall report its findings to the State Controller. If the State Controller agrees there are insufficient funds to pay scheduled payrrents on enforceable obligations, the amount of such deficiency shall be deducted from the amount remaining to be distributed to taxing agencies, as described as the fourth distribution alx:we, then from amounts available to the Successor Agency to defray administrative costs. In addition, if a taxing agency entered into an agreerrent pursuant to Health and Safety Code Section 33401 for payrrents from a redevel oprrent agency under which the payrrents were to be subordinated to certain obligations of the redeveloprrent agency, such subordination prcwisions shall continue to be given effect.

As noted alx:we, the Dissolution Act expressly pr0.tides for continuation of pass-through payrrents to local taxing entities, including the District. Per statute, 10036 of contractual and statutory two percent pass-throughs, and 56. 7% of statutory pass-th roughs authorized under the Community Redeveloprrent Law Reform Act of 1993 (AB 1290, Chapter 942, Statutes of 1993) ("AB 1290''), are restricted to educational facilities without offset against LCFF apportionrrents by the State. Only 43.3% of AB 1290 pass-throughs to the District are offset against State aid so long as the District uses the moneys received for land acquisition, facility construction, reconstruction, or remodeling, or deferred maintenance as pro.tided under Education Code Section 42238(h).

ABX 1 26 states that in the future, pass-throughs shall be made in the amount "which would have been received ... had the redeveloprrent agency existed at that tirre," and that the County Auditor­ Controller shall "determine the amount of property taxes that would have been allocated to each redevelopment agency had the redeveloprrent agency not been dissolved pursuant to the operation of ABX 1 26 using current assessed values ... and pursuant to statutory [pass-through] formulas and contractual agreerrents with other taxing agencies."

Successor Agencies continue to operate until all enforceable obligations have been satisfied and all remaining assets of the Successor Agency have been disposed of. AB 1484 pr0.tides that once the debt of the Successor Agency is paid off and remaining assets have been disposed of, the Successor Agency shal I term nate its existence and al I pass-through payrrent obi i gati ons shal I cease.

The District can make no representations as to the extent to which apporti onrrents from the State may be offset by the future receipt of residual di stri buti ons or from unencumbered cash and assets of forrrer redevelopment agencies or any other surplus property tax revenues pursuant to the Dissolution Act.

Budget Process

State Budgeting Requirerrents. The District is required by prcwisions of the State Education Code to maintain a balanced budget each year, in which the sum of expenditures and the ending fund balance cannot exceed the sum of revenues and the carry-ewer fund balance from the previous year. The State Departrrent of Education imposes a uniform budgeting and accounting format for school districts. The budget process for school districts was substantially arrended by Assembly Bill 1200 ("AB 1200''),

43 which becarre State liM' on October 14, 1991. Portions of AB 1200 are sumnarized belo.v. Additional arrendrrents to the budget process were made b,I Asserrbly Bi 11 2585, effective as of September 9, 2014, including the elinination of the dual budget cycle option for school districts. All school districts must no.v be on a single budget cycle.

School districts must adopt a budget on or before July 1 of each year. The budget must be subnitted to the county superintendent within five days of adoption or b,I July 1, whichever occurs first. The county superintendent will exanine the adopted budget for compliance with the standards and criteria adopted b,I the State Board of Education and identify technical corrections necessary to bring the budget into corrpl i ance, and wi 11 determine if the budget al Io.vs the district to meet its current obi i gati ans, if the budget is consistent with a financial plan that will enable the district to rreet its multi-year financial commitrrents, whether the budget includes the expenditures necessary to implerrent a local control and accountability plan, and whether the budget's ending fund balance exceeds the minimum recomrrended reserve for econoni c uncertainties.

On or before August 15, the county superintendent will apprcwe, conditionally appr0.te or disapprcwe the adopted budget for each school district. Budgets wi II be disappr0.ted if they fai I the abOJe standards. The district board must be notified b,I August 15 of the county superintendent's recomrrendati ans for revision and reasons for the recomrrendati ans. The county superintendent may assign a fiscal acwisor or appoint a comnittee to exani ne and comrrent on the superintendent's recomrrendati ons. The comni ttee must report its fi ndi ngs no I ater than August 20. Any recomrrendati ons made b,I the county superintendent must be made available b,I the district for public inspection. No later than September 22, the county superintendent must notify the State Superintendent of Public Instruction of al I school districts whose budget may be di sappr0.ted.

Current Budget. The District Board adopted its budget for Fiscal Year 2016-17 onJune 8, 2016 (the "2016-17 District Budget"), and subnitted it to the Los Angeles County Office of Education ("LACOE") in a tirrely manner for revie.v. In addition, the District Board apprcwed and submitted the District's LCAP concurrently with the 2016-17 District Budget. See "-State Funding of Education - Accountability" herein.

The 2016-17 District Budget prqjected a general fund beginning balance of $10 nil lion, revenues of $56.6 nil lion, total estimated expenditures of $58.7 nil lion, and an ending balance of $7 million. This ending balance was to consist of approximately $1.8 mi 11 ion for the State-mandated reserve for economic uncertainties, $30,000 of non-spendable funds, $1.7 million of restricted ending balances, $1.1 million of assigned ending balances and $2.4 mi 11 ion of undesi gnated and unassigned endi ng balances.

The 2016-17 District Budget incorporated funding levels included in the G0.ternor's May revision to the proposed State budget for fiscal year 2016-17, as well as guidance from the Los Angeles County Office of Education ("LACOE"). Other significant revenue assumptions made b,I the 2016-17 District Budget included the follo.ving: (i) a decline in enrollrrent of 87 students, resulting in funded ADA being based on the prior year's figure (4,759 students), (ii) total base LCFF funding of $34.7 nillion, and (iii) supplerrental and concentration grant funding of $10.5 million.

Significant expenditure assumptions made b,I the 2016-17 District Budget included (i) step;t:olurnn salary increases of 1.4%, (ii) increases to STRS and PERS pension costs of 12.5836 and 13.8836, respectively, (iii) an increase of 7% in health and welfare benefit costs, and (iv) an increase in general fund contributions for special education costs.

44 Interim Financial Reports. Under the prcwisions of AB 1200, each school district is required to file interim certifications with the county office of education as to its ability to meet its financial obligations for the remainder of the then-current fiscal year and, based on current forecasts, for the subsequent two fiscal years. The county office of education revie.vs the certification and issues either a positive, negative or qualified certification. A positive certification is assigned to any school district that will meet its financial obligations for the current fiscal year and subsequent two fiscal years. A negative certification is assigned to any school district that will be unable to meet its financial obligations for the remainder of the current fiscal year or the subsequent fiscal year. A qualified certification is assigned to any school district that may not meet its financial obligations for the current fiscal year or the two subsequent fiscal years.

The District has never had an adopted budget disapprcwed by the County Superintendent of Schools, pursuant to AB 1200. The District submitted its second interim reports in fiscal years 2009-10 and 2011-12, as well as the first interim report in 2012-13, with "qualified" designations. The District has subnitted, and the county office of education has accepted, "positive'' certifications for all other interim reporting periods.

The District Board adopted its most recent interim financial report on March 9, 2017 (the "2016- 17 Second Interim Financial Report'') and submitted it to LACOE in a timely manner. The 2016-17 Second Interim Financial Report prqjects general fund revenues of $58.4 million, total estimated expenditures of $61.9 million, and an ending balance of $11.5 million. This ending balance consists of approximately $1.9 million for the State-mandated reserve for economic uncertainties, $52,000 of non­ spendable funds, $2 million of restricted ending balances, and $4.5 million of undesignated and unassigned ending balances. The 2016-17 Second Interim Financial Report was self-certified by the District as positive, a designation that was accepted by LA COE. The 2016-17 Second Interim Financial Report prqjects that the District will be able to meet its financial obligations in fiscal years 2015-16 through 2017-18 and satisfy the State-mandated minimum reserve requirement, equal to 3% of general fund expenditures, in each of those years.

Fiscal Stabilization Plan. In its comment lettertothe District regarding its first interim financial report for fiscal year 2016-17, LACOE expressed concern regarding ongoing deficit spending reflected in the District's multi-year prqjections brought about by prqjected declines in enrollment and the use of one­ ti me monies to support ongoing expenditures. Accardi ng to LA COE, this deficit spending could severely impact the District's fiscal solvency in future years. LACOE requested that the District adopt a fiscal stabilization plan in orderto make necessary expenditure adjustments and maintain reserves.

The fiscal stabilization plan (the "Stabilization Plan") was apprcwed by the Board on March 9, 2017, and was subnitted to LA COE concurrently with the 2016-17 Second Interim Financial Repot. The Stabilization Plan identifies approximately $2 million of potential cost savings that the District expects to incorporate into its budget for fiscal year 2017-18. These cost savings include (i) discontinuance of two certificated teacher positions in grades 4-6 and mai ntenance of the current 30-to--1 student-to-teacher ratio in those grades, (ii) reductions in expenditures for supplies and materials and for services and certain other operating expenses in fiscal years 2017-18 and 2018-19, and (iii) assignment of a portion of the ending fund balance currently classified as committed funds to.vards stabilization purposes, such that those funds may not be used for other purposes.

Budgeting Trends. The follo.ving table summarizes the District's adopted general fund budgets for fiscal years 2013-14 through 2016-17, ending results for fiscal years 2013-14 through 2015-16, and prqjected actual ending results for fiscal year 2016-17.

State Budget Measures

The follCMing information concerning the State's budgets has been obtained from publicly available information which the District believes to be reliable; ho.vever, the District does not guarantee the accuracy or cCJ111)1eteness of this information and has not independently verified such information. Furthermore, it should not be inferred from the inclusion of this information herein that the principal of or interest on the Bonds is payable from the general fund of the District.

2016-17 Budget. OnJ une 27, 2016, the Gewernor signed into the law the State budget for fiscal year 2016-17 (the "2016-17 Budget''). The follo.ving information is drawn from the Department of Finance's summary of the 2016-17 Budget and the LA O's revie.v of the 2016-17 Budget.

The 2016-17 Budget prqjects, for fiscal year 2015-16, total general fund revenues and transfers of $117 billion and total expenditures of $115.6 billion. The State is prqjected to end the 2015-16 fiscal year with total available reserves of $7.3 billion, including $3.9 billion in the traditional general fund reserve and $3.4 billion in the BSA. For fiscal year 2016-17, the 2016-17 Budget prqjects a grONth in State general fund revenues driven primarily b,I total general fund revenues of $120.3 bi 11 ion and authorizes expenditures of $122.5 billion. The State is prqjected to end the 2016-17 fiscal year with total availabie reserves of $8.5 billion, including $1.8 billion in the traditional general fund reserve and $6.7 billion in the BSA.

As a result of higher general fund revenue estimates for fiscal years 2015-16 and 2016-17, and after accounting for expenditures controlled b,I constitutional funding requirements such as Proposition 2 and Proposition 98, the 2016-17 Budget allocates ewer $6 billion in discretionary funding for various purposes. These include (i) additional deposits of $2 billion to the BSA (reflected in the discussion abcwe) and $600 million to the State's discretionary budget reserve fund, (ii) approximately $2.9 billion in one-time funding for various purposes including infrastructure, affordabie housing and public safety programs, and (iii) $700 million in on-going funding commitments for higher education (California State University and the University of California systems), corrections and rehabi I itation and State courts.

As required b,I Proposition 2, the 2016-17 Budget applies $1.3 billion to.vards the repayment of existing State liabilities, including loans from special funds, State and University of California pension and retiree health benefits and senl e-up payments to K-14 school districts resulting from an underfunding of the Proposition 98 minimum funding guarantee in a prior fiscal year.

With respect to education funding, the 2016-17 Budget revises the Proposition 98 minimum funding guarantees for both fi seal years 2014-15 and 2015-16, as a result of increased revenue estimates. The 2016-17 Budget sets the Proposition 98 minimum funding guarantee for fiscal year 2016-17 at $71.9 billion, an increase of $2.8 billion ewer the revised level from the prior fiscal year. With respect to K-12 education, the share of the minimum funding guarantee is $62.5 billion, including $44.5 billion from the

48 State general fund and $18.1 billion from local property tax collections. Significant features with respect to K -1 2 education funding include the fol Io.vi ng:

• Local Control Funding Formula - $2.9 billion of Prop:isition 98 funding to continue the implementation of the LCFF. This reflects a 5.7% increase from the prior year, and is estimated to close the remaining funding implementation gap between the prior year and the LCFF target levels by approximately 54%. The 2016-17 Budget prqjects total LCFF implementation to be at 96% during fiscal year 2016-17. As a result, the aqjusted 2016-17 Base Grants are as folio.vs: (i) $7,820 for grades K-3, (ii) $7,189 for grades 4-6, (iii) $7,403 for grades 7--8, and (iv) $8,801 for grades 9-12. See also "DISTRICT FINANCIAL INFORMATION - State Funding of Education - Local Control Funding Formula'' herein. • Discretionary Funding - $1.3 billion in additional one-time funding that local educational agencies may use for any purp:ise. Funding will be distributed based on ADA. While funding is intended to reduce the backlog of unpaid reimbursement claims for State-mandated activities, the 2016-17 Budget estimates that most local educational agencies do not have such unpaid claims, and that only $617 nillion of the total funding will be used for this purp:ise. • Maintenance Factor - The 2016-17 Budget assumes the creation of a ne.v maintenance factor of $746 million in fiscal year 2016-17, created by the difference in grONth in per capita State general fund revenues and grONth in State per capita personal income. • College Readiness - $200 nillion in one-time Prop:isition 98 funding to fund a block grant for school districts and charter schools serving high school students. Funds are intended to pr0.tide additional services that support access and successful transition to higher education. Allocation of the funding will be based on the number of students in grades 9 through 12 that are English-learners, lo.v--income or foster youth, with no district or charter school receiving less than $75,000. The 2016-17 Budget also pr0.tides $15 nil lion in one-time Prop:isition 98 grant funding to support coordi nated student outreach by Iocal educati anal agencies and community college districts aimed at increasing college preparation, access, and success. • Career Technical Education (CTE) - The State Budget for fiscal year 2015-16 established the Career Technical Education Incentive Grant Program for I ocal education agencies to establish ne.v or expand high-quality CTE programs, and pr0.tided $400 million in fiscal year 2015-16 to fund the program The 2016-17 Budget pr0.ti des $300 ni 11 ion in second-year funding for this program. • Charter Schools - An increase of $20 million in one-time Prop:isition 98 funding to support startup costs for ne.v charter schools in 2016 and 2017. The funds are intended to offset the loss of previously available federal funding. • Support System; - $20 million in one-time Prop:isition 98 funding to assist local educational agencies pr0.ti de academic, behavioral, social and emoti anal student support services. • Truancy and Dropout Prevention - Prop:isition 47, apprcwed by voters in N0.tember 2014, reduces penalties for certain non-serious and non-violent property and drug offenses, and requires that a portion of State expenditure savings resulting from these reduced penalties by invested into K-12 truancy and dropout prevention. The 2016-17 Budget estimates approximately $9.9 million in state savings that will be available for this program. The 2016- 17 Budget also includes an additional $18 million in one-time funding for the program, resulting in total funding of $27.9 nil lion.

49 • Teacher Workforce Initiatives - The 2016-17 Budget funds several initiatives designed to i ncrease the supply of K-12 teachers, incl udi ng ( i) $20 ni 11 ion to encourage classified employees to complete their education and pursue teaching credentials, (ii) $10 nil lion in non-Proposition 98 funding to expand the number of integrated programs that allcw a participant to concurrently earn a bachelor's degree and a teaching credential, and (iii) $5 mi 11 ion to fund teacher recruitment activities. • Drinking Water - $9.5 million in one-time Proposition 98 funding to assist school districts that serve isolated or econonically disadvantaged areas imprcwe access to safe drinking water.

Gcwernor's Proposed 2017-18 Budget. OnJ anuary 10, 2017, the Gcwernor released his proposed State budget for fiscal year 2017-18 (the" Proposed Budget''). The follcwing information is drawn from the Department of Finance's summary of the Proposed Budget and the LAO's cwervie.v of the Proposed Budget.

Follcwing several years of increases, the Gcwernor reports that the three main sources of State re..renues-incorne, sales and corporation taxes-are shewing weakness. Consequently, the Proposed Budget includes a re..rised revenue forecast for fiscal years 2015-16 and 2016-17 that is $3.2 billion I ewer for than what was included in the current State budget. The Gcwernor attributes the change in expectations to a pattern of shortfalls in monthly revenue collections and a grcwth in lcwer--income workers, which results in decreased revenues due to the State's progressive tax structure. The Gcwernor also identifies some increases in State general fund spending relative to the 2016-17 Budget, most significant among those being an increase in Medi-Cal costs of approximately $1.8 billion. As a result, albsent corrective action, the Gcwernor prqjects that the State would face a general fund deficit of approximately $1.6 billion in fiscal year 2017-18, as well as comparable deficits in future years.

To close the prqjected deficit, the Proposed Budget includes $3.2 billion in remedial budgetary measures designed to reduce State general fund spending in a variety of areas. Significantly, the Proposed Budget would lcwer, by $1.7 billion, the existing Proposition 98 funding appropriations for fiscal years 2015-16 and 2016-17 which, as a result of the drop in State re..renues, are prqjected to cwerappropriate the minimum funding guarantee. As a result, the Proposed Budget also shifts, on a one­ time basis (i) $31 0 million of previously appropriated discretionary K-12 funding from the 2015-16 fiscal year to the 2016-17 fiscal year, and (ii) $859.1 million in LCFF payments fromJ une 2017 toJ uly 2017. These shifts would bring Proposition 98 spending in line with the revised funding guarantees described belcw. Other significant remedial measures include elininating a $400 nillion set aside for affordable housing and $300 nillion in pre..riously apprcwed funding for the replacement and rencwation of State office bui I di ngs.

Assuning the implementation of these measures, the Proposed Budget prqjects, for fiscal year 2016-17, total general fund re..renues and transfers of $118.8 billion and total expenditures of $122.8 billion. The State is prqjected to end the 2016-17 fiscal year with total available reserves of $7.7 billion, including $980 nil lion in the traditional general fund reserve and $6.7 billion in the BSA. For fiscal year 2017-18, the Proposed Budget prqjects total general fund re..renues of $124 billion and authorizes expenditures of $122.5 billion. The State is prqjected to end the 2017-18 fiscal year with total available reserves of $8.8 billion, including $980 nil lion in the traditional general fund reserve and $7.9 billion in the BSA.

50 As a result of the revised State revenue estimates discussed alx:we, the Proposed Budget aqjusts the ninimum funding guarantee for fiscal year 2015-16 to $68.7 billion, a decrease of $379 million from the level set b,I the 2016-17 Budget. Sinilarly, for fiscal year 2016-17, the ninimum funding guarantee is revised at $71.4 billion, reflecting a decrease of $5CXi million from the level set b,I the 2016-17 Budget. For fiscal year 2017-18, the Proposed Budget sets the ninimum funding guarantee at $73.5 billion, including $51.4 billion from the State general fund, reflecting a year-to-year increase of $2.1 billion (or 3%). Fiscal year 2017-18 is prqjected to be "Test 3" year, with the increase in the ninimum guarantee driven primarily b,I an increase in per capital State general fund revenues. Significant proposals with respect to K-12 education funding include the follo.ving:

• Local Control Funding Formula - $744 million in Proposition 98 funding to continue the implerrentation of the LCFF. This level of funding would support a 1.4836 COLA for acjjusted Base Grants in fiscal year 2017-18. The Proposed Budget prqjects to maintain total LCFF irnplerrentation at 96%. The Proposed Budget would also pr0.tide $2.4 nillion in Proposition 98 funding to support a COLA for LCFF funding levels for county offices of education. • Maintenance Factor - As a result of the acjjustrrents to the Proposition 98 ninimum funding guarantee for fiscal years 2015-16 and 2016-17, as described abOJe, the State is no longer required to make a $379 million maintenance factor payrrent for fiscal year 2015-16 that was appr0.ted b,I the 2016-17 Budget, and the maintenance factor created for fiscal year 2016-17 gro.vs from $746 nil lion to $838 million. In addition, the funding levels set b,I the Proposed Budget would create a new maintenance factor in fiscal year 2017-18 equal to $219 nil lion, bringing the total outstanding State obiigation to $1.6 billion. • Discretionary Funding - An increase of $287 million in one-tirre funding that local educational agencies may use for any purpose. Sinilar to features included in prior State budgets, these funds would offset any applicable unpaid reimburserrent claims for State-­ mandated activities. • Settle Up Payrrent - $601 nillion in one-tirre funding to support a "settle up'' payrrent related to an obi i gation created in fi seal year 2009-10 when revenue estimates understated the ni ni mum funding guarantee. • Career Technical Education (CTE) - The State Budget for fiscal year 2015-16 established the Career Technical Education Incentive Grant Program for I ocal education agencies to establish new or expand high-quality CTE programs. The Proposed Budget would pr0.tide $200 nil lion as the final installrrent of funding for this program. • ADA Adjustrrents - The Proposed Budget's funding levels reflect the follo.ving adjustrrents (i) an increase of $93 million in Proposition 98 funding to support a prqjected grONth in charter school ADA, (ii) a decrease of $4.9 nillion in Proposition 98 funding as a result of a prqjected decrease in special education ADA, and (iii) a total decrease of $232 nillion for fiscal years 2016-17 and 2017-18 as a result of continuing prqjected declines in ADA for school districts. • Local PropertyTaxAcjjustrrents - A decrease of $149.2 nillion in Proposition 98 funding in fiscal year 2016-17 for school districts and county office of education as a result of higher offsetting property tax revenues. The Proposed Budget would make a sinilar decrease of $922.7 million in fiscal year 2017-18. • Categorical Program; - An increase of $58.1 nil lion in Proposition 98 funding to support a 1.4836 COLA for categorical programs that remain outside of the LCFF.

51 • Proposition 39 - Passed by voters in Ncwerrber 2012, Proposition 39 increases State corporate tax revenues and requires that, for a five-year period starting in fiscal year 2013-14, a portion of these additional revenues be allocated to local education agencies to irrprcwe energy efficiency and expand the use of alternative energy in public buildings. The Proposed Budget allocates $422.9 million of such funds to support school district and charter school energy efficiency prqjects in fiscal year 2017-18. • Proposition 56 - Passed by voters in Ncwerrber 2016, Proposition 56 increases the per-pack State sales tax on cigarettes by $2, and requires that a portion of the revenue generated be used for school program, designed to prevent and reduce the use of tobacco and nicotine products. The Proposed Budget would allocate $29.9 million of Proposition 56 revenues to support these program,.

Future Budgets and Actions. The District cannot predict what actions will be taken in the future by the State legislature and the Gcwernor to address the changing State revenues and expenditures or the impact such actions will have on State revenues available in the current or future years for education. The State budget will be affected by national and State econonic conditions and other factors ewer which the District will have no control. Certain actions could result in a significant shortfall of revenue and cash, and could impair the State's ability to fund education. State budget shortfalls in future fiscal years could have an ad.terse financial impact on the State general fund budget.

54 State Retirement Programs

The informttion set forth belo.v regarding STRS (as defined herein) and PERS (as defined herein), other than the informttion pr0.tided by the District regarding its annual contributions thereto, has been obtained from publicly available sources which are believed to be reliable but are not guaranteed as to accuracy or completeness, and should not to be construed as a representation by either the District or the Underwriter.

STRS. All full-time certificated employees, as well as certain classified employees, are members of the State Teachers' Retirement System ("STRS"). STRS pro.tides retirement, disability and survivor benefits to plan members and beneficiaries under a defined benefit program (the "STRS Defined Benefit Program''). The STRS Defined Benefit Program is funded through a corrbination of investment earnings and statutorily set contributions from three sources: employees, employers, and the State. Benefit pr0.tisions and contribution amounts are established by State statutes, as legislatively amended from time to time.

Prior to fiscal year 2014-15, and unlike typical defined benefit programs, none of the employee, employer nor State contribution rates to the STRS Defined Benefit Program varied annually to mtke up funding shortfalls or assess credits for actuarial surpluses. In recent years, the combined employer, employee and State contributions to the STRS Defined Benefit Program have not been sufficient to pay actuarially required amounts. As a result, and due to significant investment losses, the unfunded actuarial liability of the STRS Defined Benefit Program has increased significantly in recent fiscal years. In September 2013, STRS prqjected that the STRS Defined Benefit Program would be depleted in 31 years assuming exi sti ng contri buti on rates continued, and other significant actuarial assumpti ans were real i zed. In an effort to reduce the unfunded actuarial liability of the STRS Defined Benefit Program, the State recently passed the Iegi sl ati on descri bed bel ON to i ncrease contribution rates.

Prior toJ uly 1, 2014, K-14 school districts were required by such statutes to contribute 8.25% of eligible salary expenditures, while participants contributed 836 of their respective salaries. On June 24, 2014, the G0.ternor signed AB 1469 ("AB 1469'') into law as a part of the State's fiscal year 2014-15 budget. AB 1469 seeks to fully fund the unfunded actuarial obi igation with respect to service credited to members of the STRS Defined Benefit Program before July 1, 2014 (the" 2014 Liability"), within 32 years, by increasing member, K-14 school district and State contributions to STRS. CommencingJ uly 1, 2014, the employee contribution rate increased ewer a three-year phase-in period in accordance with the fol Io.vi ng schedule:

Source: AB 1469.

55 Pursuant to the Reform Act (defined belcw), the contribution rates for members hired after the I rrplementation Date (defined belcw) will be adjusted if the normal cost increases b,I more than 1% since the last time the member contribution was set. While the contribution rate for errplO(ees hired after the I rrplementation Date will remain unchanged at 9.205% of creditable corrpensation for fiscal year commencing J uly 1, 2017, the STRS actuary currently estimates that member contribution rates for such members will have to increase to 10.205% of creditable corrpensation effectiveJ uly 1, 2018, based on the ne.v actuarial assurrptions discussed belcw.

Pursuant to AB 1469, K-14 school districts' contribution rate will increase ewer a seven-year phase-in period in accordance with the follcwing schedule:

Based upon the recommendation from its actuary, for fiscal year 2021-22 and each fiscal year thereafter the STRS Teachers' Retirement Board (the "STRS Board'), is required to increase or decrease the K-14 school districts' contribution rate to reflect the contribution required to elininate the remaining 2014 Liability b,I June 30, 2046; pro.tided that the rate cannot change in any fiscal year b,I more than 1% of creditable compensation upon which members' contributions to the STR S Defi ned B enefi t Program are based; and pro.tided further that such contribution rate cannot exceed a maximum of 20.25%. In addition to the increased contribution rates discussed abcwe, AB 1469 also requires the STRS Board to report to the State Legislature every five years (commencing with a report due on or before J uly 1, 2019) on the fiscal health of the STRS Defined Benefit Program and the unfunded actuarial obligation with respect to service credited to members of that program beforeJ uly 1, 2014. The reports are also required to identify acjjustments required in contribution rates for K-14 school districts and the State in order to eliminate the 2014 Liability.

The District's contributions to STRS were $1,820,004 for fiscal year 2012-13, $1,888,860 for fiscal year 2013-14, $2,102,846 for fiscal year 2014-15 and $2,697,965 for fiscal year 2015-16. The District has budgeted a contribution of $3,377,635 toSTRS for fiscal year 2016-17.

The State also contributes to STRS, currently in an amount equal to 6.32836 of teacher payroll for fiscal year 2016-17. The State's contribution reflects a base contribution rate of 2.017%, and a supplemental contribution rate that will vary from year to year based on statutory criteria Based upon the recommendation from its actuary, for fiscal year 2017-18 and each fiscal year thereafter, the STRS Board is required, with certain limitations, to increase or decrease the State's contribution rates to reflect the contribution required to eliminate the unfunded actuarial accrued liability attributed to benefits in effect beforeJ uly 1, 1990. For the firsttime, in fiscal year 2017-18, the State contribution will increase 0.5% of ccwered payroll (the maximum rate increase allcwed per year under current law) to 6.82836.

56 In addition, the State is currently required to make an annual general fund contribution upto 2.5% of the fiscal year ccwered STRS member payroll to the Supplemental Benefit Protection Account (the "SBPA"), which was established b,I statute to pro.tide supplemental payments to beneficiaries whose purchasing p::wer has fallen belo.v 85% of the purchasing p::wer of their initial allo.vance.

PE RS. Classified employees working four or more hours per day are members of the Public Employees' Retirement System ("PERS"). PERS pro.tides retirement and disability benefits, annual cost­ of--1 ivi ng acjj ustments, and death benefits to pl an members and benefi ci ari es. B enefi t pro.ti si ans are established b,I the State statutes, as legislatively amended from time to time. PERS operates a number of retirement plans including the Public Employees Retirement Fund ("PERF"). PERF is a multiple-­ employer defined benefit retirement plan. In addition to the State, employer participants atJ une 30, 2014 included 1,580 public agencies and 1,513 K-14 school districts. PERS acts as the common investment and administrative agent for the member agencies. The State and K-14 school districts (for "classified employees," which generally consist of school employees other than teachers) are required b,i liM' to participate in PERF. Employees participating in PERF generally become fully vested in their retirement benefits earned to date after five years of credited service. One of the plans operated b,I PERS is for K-14 school districts throughout the State (the "Schools Pool").

Contributions b,I employers to the Schools Pool are based upon an actuarial rate determined annually and contributions b,I plan members vary based upon their date of hire. The District is currently required to contribute to PERS at an actuarially determined rate, which is 13.88836 of eligible salary expenditures for fiscal year 2016-17. Participants enrolled in PERS prior toJ anuary 1, 2013 contribute 7% of their respective salaries, while participants enrolled after January 1, 2013 contribute at an actuarially determined rate, which is 6% of their respective salaries for fiscal year 2016-17. See"­ California Public Employees' Pension Reform Act of 2013" herein.

The District's contributions to PERS were $807,508 for fiscal year 2012-13, $815,958 for fiscal year 2013-14, $896,220 for fiscal year 2014-15 and $941,766 for fiscal year 2015-16. The District has budgeted a contribution of $1,441,985 to PERS for fiscal year 2016-17.

State Pension Trusts. Each of STRS and PE RS issues a separate comprehensive financial report that includes financial statements and required supplemental information. Copies of such financial reports may be obtained from each of STRS and PERS as folio.vs: (i) STRS, P.O. Box 15275, Sacramento, California 95851-0275; (ii) PERS, P.O. Box 942703, Sacramento, California 94229-2703. More0.ter, each of STRS and PERS maintains a website, as folio.vs: (i) STRS: 1Nww.calstrs.com (ii) PERS: www.calpers.ca.gov. Ho.vever, the information presented in such financial reports or on such websites is not incorporated into this Official Statement b,I any reference.

Both STRS and PERS have substantial statewide unfunded liabilities. The amount of these unfunded liabilities will vary depending on actuarial assumptions, returns on investments, salary scales and participant contributions. The follo.ving table summarizes information regarding the actuarially-determined accrued liability for both STRS and PERS. Actuarial assessments are "forward-­ looking'' information that reflect the judgment of the fiduciaries of the pension plans, and are based upon a variety of assumptions, one or more of which may not materialize or be changed in the future. Actuarial assessments will change with the future experience of the pension plans.

The STRS Board has sole authority to deternine the actuarial assurrptions and methods used for the valuation of the STRS Defined Benefit Program Based on the multi-year CalSTRS Experience Analysis (spanning fromJuly 1, 2010, through June 30, 2015), on February 1, 2017, the STRS Board adopted a ne.v set of actuarial assumptions that reflect member's i ncreasi ng Ii fe expectancies and current economic trends. These ne.v assurrptions were first reflected in the STRS Defined Benefit Program Actuarial Valuation, as of June 30, 2016 (the "2016 Actuarial Valuation"). The ne.v actuarial assumptions include, but are not limited to: (i) adopting a generational mortality methodology to reflect past imprcwements in life expectancies and pro.tide a more dynamic assessment of future life spans, (ii) decreasing the investment rate of return (net of investment and adninistrative expenses) to 7.25% for the 2016 Actuarial Valuation and 7.00% for theJ une 30, 2017 actuarial evaluation, and (iii) decreasing the prqjected wage grcwth to 3.50% and the prqjected inflation rate to 2.75%. The 2016 Actuarial Valuation con ti nues using the Entry Age Normal Actuarial Cost Met hod.

Based on the change in actuarial assumptions adopted b,I the STRS Board, recent investment experience and the insufficiency of the contributions received in fiscal year 2015-16 to ccwer interest on the unfunded actuarial obligation, the 2016 Actuarial Valuation reports that the unfunded actuarial obligation increased b,I $20.5 billion since the June 30, 2015 actuarial valuation and the funded ratio decreased b,14.836 to 63.7% ewer such time period. Had the investment rate of return been lcwered to 7.00% for the 2016 Actuarial Valuation, the unfunded actuarial obligation and the funded ratio would have been $105.1 billion and 61.8%, respectively. As a result, it is currently prqjected that there will be a

58 need for higher contributions from the State, employers and merrbers in the future to reach full funding by 2046.

According to the 2016 Actuarial Valuation, the future revenues from contributions and appropriations for the STRS Defined Benefit Program are prqjected to be sufficient to finance its obligations, except for a small portion of the unfunded actuarial obligation related to service accrued on or after July 1, 2014 for merrber benefits ack:Jpted after 1990, for which AB 1469 pr0.tides no authority to the STRS Board to acjjust rates to pay dcwn that portion of the unfunded actuarial obligation. This finding reflects the scheduled contribution rate increases directed by statute, assumes additional increases in the scheduled contri buti on rates al Icwed under the current I iM' wi 11 be made, and is based on the valuation assumptions and valuation policy adopted by the STRS Board, including a 7.00% investment rate of return assumption.

In recent years, the PERS Board of Administration (the "PERS Board') has taken several steps, as described belcw, intended to reduce the amount of the unfunded accrued actuarial liability of its plans, including the Schools Pool.

On March 14, 2012, the PERS Board voted to lcwer the PERS' rate of expected price inflation and its investment rate of return (net of adninistrative expenses) (the" PERS Discount Rate") from 7.7'JYo to 7.5%. On February 18, 2014, the PE RS Board voted to keep the PERS Discount Rate unchanged at 7.5%. On Ncwerrber 17, 2015, the PERS Board appr0.ted a mw funding risk mitigation policy to incrementally lcwer the PERS Discount Rate by establishing a mechanism whereby such rate is reduced by a minimum of 0.0'JYo to a maximum of 0.2'JYo in years when investment returns outperform the existing PERS Discount Rate by at least four percentage points. On December 21, 2016, the PERS Board voted to lcwer the PERS Discount Rate to 7.0% ewer the next three years in accordance with the follcwing schedule: 7.375% in fiscal year 2017-18, 7.25% in fiscal year 2018-19 and 7.00% in fiscal year 2019-20. The new discount rate wi 11 go into effect July 1, 2017 for the State and J uly 1, 2018 for K-14 school districts and other public agencies. Lcwering the PERS Discount Rate means employers that contract with PE RS to administer their pension pl ans wi 11 see increases in their normal costs and unfunded actuarial liabilities. Active members hired after January 1, 2013, under the Reform Act (defined belcw) will also see their contribution rates rise. The three-year reduction of the discount rate to 7.0% is expected to result in average employer rate increases of approximately 1-3% of normal cost as a percent of payroll for rmst niscellaneous retirement plans and a 2-'JYo increase for most safety plans.

On April 17, 2013, the PERS Board appr0.ted new actuarial policies aimed at returning PERS to fully-funded status within 30 years. The policies include a rate smoothing method with a 30-year fixed amortization period for gains and losses, a five-year increase of public agency contribution rates, including the contribution rate at the onset of such amortization period, and a five year reduction of public agency contribution rates at the end of such arnorti zati on period. The new actuarial policies were fi rst included in the J une 30, 2014 actuarial valuation and were implemented with respect the State, K-14 school districts and all other public agencies in fiscal year 2015-16.

Also, on February 20, 2014, the PERS Board appr0.ted new demographic assumptions reflecting (i) expected longer life spans of public agency employees and related increases in costs for the PERS system and (ii) trends of higher rates of retirement for certain public agency employee classes, including police officers and firefighters. The new actuarial assumptions will first be reflected in the Schools Pool in the June 30, 2015 actuarial valuation. The increase in liability due to the new assumptions will be amortized 0.ter 20 years with increases phased in 0.ter five years, beginning with the contribution requirement for fiscal year 2016-17. The new demographic assumptions affect the State, K-14 school districts and all other public agencies.

59 The District can make no representations regarding the future program liabilities of STRS, or whether the District will be required to make additional contributions to STRS in the future alx:we those amounts required under AB 1469. The District can also pro.tide no assurances thatthe District's required contributions to PERS will not increase in the future.

California Public Employees' Pension Reform Act of 2013. On September 12, 2012, the Gcwernor signed into law the California Public Employees' Pension Reform Act of 2013 (the "Reform Act"), which makes changes to both STRS and PERS, most substantially affecting ne.v employees hired after January 1, 2013 (the "Implementation Date"). For STRS participants hired after the Implementation Date, the Reform Act changes the normal retirement age b,I increasing the eligibility for the 2% age factor (the age factor is the percent of final compensation to which an employee is entitled for each year of service) from age 60 to 62 and increasing the eligibility of the maximum age factor of 2.4% from age 63 to 65. Similarly, for non-safety PERS participants hired after the Implementation Date, the Reform Act changes the normal reti rement age b,I i ncreasi ng the el i gi bi Ii ty for the 2% age factor from age 55 to 62 and increases the eligibility requirement for the maximum age factor of 2.5% to age 67. Among the other changes to PERS and STRS, the Reform Act also: (i) requires all ne.v participants enrolled in PERS and STRS after the Implementation Date to contribute at least 5036 of the total annual normal cost of their pension benefit each year as deterrrined b,I an actuary, (ii) requires STRS and PERS to deterrrine the final compensation amount for employees based upon the highest annual compensation earnable averaged ewer a consecutive 36-m:Jnth period as the basis for calculating retirement benefits for ne.v participants enrolled after the Implementation Date (previously 12 months for STRS members who retire with 25 years of service), and (iii) caps "pensionable compensation" for ne.v participants enrolled after the Implementation Date at 10036 of the federal Social Security contribution (to be adjusted annually based on changes to the Consumer Price Index for all Urban Consumers) and benefit base for members participating in Social Security or 12036 for members not participating in social security (to be acjjusted annually based on changes to the Consumer Price Index for all Urban Consumers), while excluding previously al lcwed forms of compensation under the formula such as payments for unused vacation, annual leave, personal leave, sick leave, or compensatory time off.

GASB Statement Nos. 67 and 68. OnJ une 25, 2012, GASB apprcwed Statements Nos. 67 and 68 ("Statements") with respect to pension accounting and financial reporting standards for state and local gcwernments and pension plans. The ne.v Statements, No. 67 and No. 68, replace GASB Statement No. 27 and most of Statements No. 25 and No. 50. The changes impact the accounting treatment of pension plans in which state and local gcwernments participate. Major changes include: (1) the inclusion of unfunded pension liabilities on the gcwernment's balance sheet (currently, such unfunded liabilities are typically included as notes to the gcwernment's financial statements); (2) more components of full pension costs being sho.vn as expenses regardless of actual contribution levels; (3) lcwer actuarial discount rates being required to be used for underfunded plans in certain cases for purposes of the financial statements; (4) closed amortization periods for unfunded liabilities being required to be used for certain purposes of the fi nanci al statements; and ( 5) the difference between expected and actual investment returns being recognized ewer a closed five-year smoothing period. In addition, according to GASB, Statement No. 68 means that, for pensions within the scope of the Statement, a cost-sharing employer that does not have a special funding situation is required to recognize a net pension liability, deferred outfl o.vs of resources, deferred i nfl cws of resources related to pensions and pension expense based on its proportionate share of the net pension liability for benefits pro.tided through the pension plan. Because the accounting standards do not require changes in funding policies, the ful I extent of the effect of the ne.v standards on the District is not kno.vn at this time. The reporting requirements for pension plans took effect for the fiscal year beginningJ uly 1, 2013 and the reporting requirements for gcwernment employers, including the District, took effect for the fiscal year beginningJ uly 1, 2014.

60 As of June 30, 2016, the District reported its share of the net pension liabilities for the STRS and PERS systems to be $33,803,380 and $10,018,845, respectively. See also "APPENDIX B - 2015-16 AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF THE DISTRICT- Note 11" attached hereto

Other Post-£ mployment Benefits

Plan Description. The District administers a single-employer defined benefit healthcare plan (the "Plan"). The Plan pr0.tides health benefits (the "Benefits") to eligible retirees and their dependents, as detailed belo.v. As of June 30, 2016, there were 142 retirees and beneficiaries currently receiving the Benefits, and 101 active Plan members who are eligible for, but not yet receiving, the Benefits.

Certificated EOJ)icyees: Retirees age 55 to 65, with at least 15 years of service, may choose among health plans offered b,I the District, but will pay the difference between the least expensive plan and the plan selected. Retirees have the option for dependent c0.terage solely at the retiree's expense. Such retirees receive dental, vision and life insurance at no cost to the retiree. Retirees have the option for dental and vision c0.terage for dependents solely at the retirees' expense.

Classified Employees: Retirees age 55 to 65 with at least 20years of service may choose among health plans offered b,I the District but will pay the difference between the least expensive plan and the plan selected. Retirees have the option for dependent c0.terage solely at the retiree's expense. Such retirees receive dental, vision and life insurance at no costtothe retiree. (This benefit is currently limited to 18 retirees at a time; if more than 18 retirees seek this benefit, they may be purchased solely at the retiree's expense.) Retirees have the option for dental and vision ccwerage for dependents solely at the retirees' expense. Retirees age 55 to 65 with at least lOyears of service receive dental, vision and vision c0.terage for the retiree and their dependents solely at the retiree's expense.

Management: Retirees age 55 to 65 with at least six years of service may choose among health plans offered b,I the District but will pay the difference between the least expensive plan and the plan selected. Retirees have the option for dependent c0.terage solely at the retiree's expense. Such retirees receive dental, vision and life insurance at no cost to the retiree. Retirees have the option for dental and vision ccwerage for dependents solely at the retirees' expense. After age 65, retiree's may purchase dental and vision insurance forthemselves and their dependents solely atthe retiree's expense.

All Employees: Afterthe age of 65, the District will pay an amountto.vard the cost of a Medicare supplement plan offered b,I the District's pr0.tider for the retiree only. Retirees may purchase c0.terage for their dependents solely at the retiree's expense. The Benefits are pro-rated based on a percentage of ful I-ti me equival ency.

Funding Policy. The District's funding policy for the Benefits is based on the prqjected pay--as­ you-go fi nanci ng requirements. The District's contributions to.vards the B enefi ts for fi seal years 2012-13 through 2015-16, all of which were used for current premiums, were $745,708, $795,028, $1,064,845 and $1,132,700, respectively. The District has budgeted a contribution of $1,152,364 to the Plan in fiscal year 2016-17, all of which is expected to be used for current preniums.

Actuarial Report. The District has implemented G0.ternmental Accounting Standards Board Statement #45, Accounting and Financial Reporting b,I Employers for Postemployment Benefit Plans Other Than Pension Plans ("GASB 45"), pursuant to which the District has commissioned and received several actuarial studies of its outstanding liabilities with respect to the Benefits. The most recent of these studies (the "Actuarial Report''), dated October 6, 2015, with a valuation date ofJuly 1, 2014, determined that the unfunded actuarial accrued liability ("AAL") with respect to the Benefits was approximately $15,629,414. In calculating the AAL, the District is required to recognize an implicit insurance premium

61 rate subsidy because retirees and current employees in the District's plan are insured together as a group, since it is assumed that the preniums paid for retiree insurance ccwerage are lcwer than they would have been if the current retirees were insured separately. The Actuarial Report also concluded that the annual required contribution (the "ARC") for fiscal year 2014-15 was $1,595,777. The ARC is the amount that would be necessary to fund the value of future Benefits earned by current employees during each fiscal year (the "Normal Cost'') and the amount necessary to amortize the UAAL, in accordance with GASB Statements Numbers 43 and 45. The ARC is expected to grew with ccwered payroll.

Net OPE B Obligation. As of June 30, 2016, the District recognized a long-term obligation (the "Net OPEB Obligation") of $6,558,347 with respect to its accrued liability for the Benefits. The Net OPEB Obligation is based on the District's contributions tcwards the ARC during fiscal year 2015-16, plus interest on the prior year's Net OPEB Obligation and minus any acjjustments to reflect the amortization thereof. See "APPENDIX B - 2015-16AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF THE DI STR I CT - Nate 7' attached hereto.

Risk Management

The District is exposed to various risks of loss related to property, general liability, workers' compensation and employee benefits. These risks are addressed through a combination of commercial insurance and participation in the public entity risk pool described belcw. While there are no currently pending claims against the District, settled claims have not exceeded the commercial ccwerage in any of the past three fi seal years.

The District also participates in the Mountain View, El Monte City, Rosemead, Garvey, and El Monte Union High School Districts (MERGE) public entity risk pool. MERGE pro.tides worker's compensation, property, and liability insurance for its member districts. MERGE is gcwerned by a board consisting of one representative from each member district. The gcwerning board controls the pool's operations, independent of any influence by the member districts. Each member district pays a premium commensurate with the level of ccwerage requested and shares surpluses and deficits proportionally to its participation in MERGE. The relationship between the District and MERGE is such that the latter is not component unit of the District for financial reporting purposes.

64 TAX MATTERS

In the opinion of Bond Counsel, under existing statutes, regulations, rulings and judicial decisions, and assuming the accuracy of certain representations and compliance with certain co.tenants and requirements described herein, interest on the Bands is excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes and is not an item of tax preference for purposes of calculating the federal alternative minimum tax imposed on individuals and corporations. In the further opinion of Bond Counsel, interest on the Bonds is exempt from State personal income tax. Bond Counsel notes that, with respect to corporations, interest on the Bonds may be included as an acjjustment in the calculation of alternative minimum taxable income, which may affect the alternative ninirnum tax liability of corporations.

The difference between the issue price of a Bond (the first price at which a substantial amount of the Bands of the same series and maturity is to be sold to the publ i c) and the stated redemption price at maturity with respect to such Bond constitutes original issue discount. Original issue discount accrues under a constant yield method, and original issue discount will accrue to a Bond owner before receipt of cash attributable to such excludable income. The amount of original issue discount deemed received b,I the Bond OWnerwill increase the Bond owner's basis in the Bond. In the opinion of Bond Counsel, the amount of original issue di scountthat accrues to the o.vner of the Band is excluded from the gross income of such o.vner for federal income tax purposes, is not an item of tax preference for purposes of the federal alternative minimum tax imposed on individuals and corporations, and is exempt from State personal i ncome tax.

Bond Counsel's opinion as to the exclusion from gross income of interest (and original issue discount) on the Bands is based upon certain representati ans of fact and certi fi cati ans made b,I the District and others and is suqject to the condition that the District complies with all requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code''), that must be satisfied subsequent to the issuance of the Bonds to assure that interest (and original issue discount) on the Bonds will not become includable in gross income for federal income tax purposes. Failure to comply with such requirements of the Code night cause the interest (and original issue discount) on the Bonds to be included in gross income for federal income tax purposes retroactive to the date of issuance of the Bonds. The District has co.tenanted to comply with al I such requirements.

The amount b,I which a Bond owner's original basis for determining loss on sale or exchange in the applicable Bond (generally, the purchase price) exceeds the amount payable on maturity (or on an earlier call date) constitutes amortizable Bond premium, which must be amortized under Section 171 of the Code; such amortizable Bond prenium reduces the Bond owner's basis in the applicable Bond (and the amount of tax-exempt interest received), and is not deductible for federal income tax purposes. The basis reduction as a result of the amortization of Band preni um may result in a Band owner realizing a taxable gain when a Bond is sold b,I the owner for an amount equal to or I ess ( under certain circumstances) than the original cost of the Band to the owner. Purchasers of the Bands should consult their o.vn tax advisors as to the treatment, computation and col Iateral consequences of amorti zabl e Band prenium.

The Internal Revenue Service (the "IRS") has initiated an expanded program for the auditing of tax-exempt bond issues, including both random and targeted audits. It is possible that the Bonds will be selected for audit b,I the I RS. It is also possible thatthe market value of the Bonds night be affected as a result of such an audit of the Bonds (or b,I an audit of sinilar bonds). No assurance can be given that in the course of an audit, as a result of an audit, or otherwise, Congress or the I RS night not change the Code (or interpretation thereof) subsequent to the issuance of the Bonds to the extent that it ad.tersely affects the exclusion from gross income of interest on the Bonds or their market value.

65 SUBSEQUENT TO THE ISSUANCE OF THE BONDS, THERE MIGHT BE FEDERAL, STATE OR LOCAL STATUTORY CHANGES (OR JUDICIAL OR REGULATORY INTERPRETATIONS OF FEDERAL, STATE OR LOCAL LAW) THAT AFFECT THE FEDERAL, STATE OR LOCAL TAX TREATMENT OF THE INTEREST ON THE BONDS OR THE MARKET VALUE OF THE BONDS. LEGISLATIVE CHANGES HAVE BEEN PROPOSED IN CONGRESS, WHICH, IF ENACTED, WOULD RESULT IN ADDITIONAL FEDERAL INCOME TAX BEING IMPOSED ON CERTAIN OWNERS OF TAX-EXEMPT STATE OR LOCAL OBLIGATIONS, SUCH AS THE BONDS. THE INTRODUCTION OR ENACTMENT OF ANY SUCH CHANGES COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT THE MARKET VALUE OR LIQUIDITY OF THE BONDS. NO ASSURANCE CAN BE GIVEN THAT, SUBSEQUENT TO THE ISSUANCE OF THE BONDS, SUCH CHANGES (OR OTHER CHANGES) WILL NOT BE INTRODUCED OR ENACTED OR INTERPRETATIONS WILL NOT OCCUR. BEFORE PURCHASING ANY OF THE BONDS, ALL POTENTIAL PURCHASERS SHOULD CONSULT THEIR TAX ADVISORS REGARDING POSSIBLE STATUTORY CHANGES OR JUDICIAL OR REGULATORY CHANGES OR INTERPRETATIONS, AND THEIR COLLATERAL TAX CONSEQUENCES RELATING TO THE BONDS.

Bond Counsel's opinions may be affected by actions taken (or not taken) or events occurring (or not occurring) after the date hereof. Bond Counsel has not undertaken to determine, or to inform any person, whether any such actions or events are taken or do occur. The Resolutions and the Tax Certificate relating to the Bonds permit certain actions to be taken or to be omitted if a favorable opinion of Bond Counsel is pr0.tided with respect thereto. Bond Counsel expresses no opinion as to the effect on the exclusion from gross income of i nterest ( and original issue discount) on the Bands for federal income tax purposes with respect to any Bond if any such action is taken or omitted based upon the ad.tice of counsel otherthan StradlingY occa Carlson & Rauth.

Although Bond Counsel has rendered an opinion that interest (and original issue discount) on the Bonds is excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes pr0.tided thatthe District continues to comply with certain requirements of the Code, the o.vnershi p of the Bands and the accrual or receipt of interest (and original issue discount) with respect to the Bonds may otherwise affect the tax liability of certain persons. Band Counsel expresses no opinion regardi ng any such tax consequences. Accordingly, before purchasing any of the Bonds, al I potential purchasers should consult thei rtax ad.tisors with respect to col I ateral tax consequences rel ati ng to the Bands.

A cop,1 of the proposed form of opinion of Bond Counsel for the Bonds is attached hereto as APPENDIX A.

LIMITATION ON REMEDIES; BANKRUPTCY

General. State law contains certain safeguards to protect the financial solvency of school districts. See "DISTRICT FINANCIAL INFORMATION - Budget Process" herein. If the safeguards are not successful in preventing a school district from becoming insolvent, the State Superintendent, operating through an administrator appointed thereby, may be authorized under State law to file a petition under Chapter 9 of the United States Bankruptcy Code (the" Bankruptcy Code'') on behalf of the school district for the adjustment of its debts, assuning that the school district meets certain other requirements contained in the Bankruptcy Code necessary for filing such a petition. School districts are not themselves authorized to fi I e a bankruptcy proceeding, and they are not suqj ect to involuntary bankruptcy.

Bankruptcy courts are courts of equity and as such have broad discretionary po.vers. If the District were to become the debtor in a proceeding under Chapter 9 of the Bankruptcy Code, the automatic stay pr0.tisions of Bankruptcy Code Sections 362 and 922 generally would prohibit creditors

66 from taking any action to collect amounts due from the District orto enforce any obligation of the District related to such amounts due, without consent of the District or authorization of the bankruptcy court (although such stays would not operate to block creditor application of pledged special revenues to payrrent of indebtedness secured by such revenues). In addition, as part of its plan of acjjustrrent in a chapter 9 bankruptcy case, the District may be able to alter the priority, interest rate, principal amount, payrrent terms, collateral, maturity dates, payrrent sources, co.tenants (including tax,elated co.tenants), and other terms or prcwisions of the Bonds and other transaction docurrents related to the Bonds, as long as the bankruptcy court deterni nes that the alterations are fair and equitable. There also may be other possible effects of a bankruptcy of the District that could result in delays or reductions in payrrents on the Bonds. Morecwer, regardless of any specific ad.terse determinations in any District bankruptcy proceeding, the fact of a District bankruptcy proceeding could have an ad.terse effect on the liquidity and market price of the Bands.

Statutory Lien. Pursuant to Section 53515 of the Gcwernrrent Code, the Bonds are secured by a statutory lien on all revenues received pursuant to the levy and collection of the tax, and such lien automatically arises, without the need for any action or authorization by the local agency or its gcwerning board, and is valid and binding from the tirre the Bonds are executed and delivered. See "THE BONDS - Security and Sources of Payrrent" herein. Although a statutory lien would not be automatically terninated by the filing of a Chapter 9 bankruptcy petition by the District, the automatic stay prcwisions of the Bankruptcy Code would apply and payrrents that become due and o.vi ng on the Bands duri ng the pendency of the Chapter 9 proceeding could be delayed, unless the Bonds are determined to be secured by a pledge of "special revenues" within the rreaning of the Bankruptcy Code and the pledged ad valorem taxes are appl i ed to pay the Bands i n a manner consistent with the Bankruptcy Code.

Special Revenues. If the ad valoremtax revenues that are pledged to the payrrent of the Bonds are determined to be "special revenues'' within the rreaning of the Bankruptcy Code, then the application in a manner consistent with the Bankruptcy Code of the pledged ad valorem revenues should not be suqject to the automatic stay. "Special revenues" are defined to include, among others, taxes specifically levied to finance one or more prqjects or systems of the debtor, but excluding receipts from general property, sales, or incorre taxes levied to finance the general purposes of the debtor. State law prohibits the use of the tax proceeds for any purpose other than payrrent of the Bands and the Band proceeds can only be used to finance or refinance the acquisition or imprcwerrent of real property and other capital expenditures included in the proposition, so such tax revenues appear to fit the definition of special revenues. Ho.vever, there is no binding judicial precedent dealing with the treatrrent in bankruptcy proceedings of ad valorem tax revenues collected for the payrrents of bonds in California, so no assurance can be given that a bankruptcy court would not hold otherwise.

Possession of Tax Revenues; Remedies. The County on behalf of the District is expected to be in possession of the annual ad valorem property taxes and certain funds to repay the Bands and may invest these funds in the County's pooled investrrent fund, as described in "THE BONDS - Application and I nvestrrent of Bond Proceeds" herein and"APPENDIX E - LOS ANGELES COUNTY TREASURY POOL" attached hereto. If the County goes into bankruptcy and has possession of tax revenues (whether collected before or after comrrencerrent of the bankruptcy), and if the County does not voluntarily pay such tax revenues to the o.vners of the Bonds, it is not entirely clear what procedures the o.vners of the Bonds would have to follo.v to attempt to obtain possession of such tax revenues, ho.v much tirre it would take for such procedures to be completed, or whether such procedures would ultimately be successful. Further, should those investrrents suffer any losses, there may be delays or reductions in payrrents on the Bands.

67 Opinion of Bond Counsel Qualified b,I Reference to Bankruptcy, Insolvency and Other Law; Relating to or Affecting Creditor's Rights. The proposed form of the apprcwing opinion of Bond Counsel attached hereto as APPENDIX A is qualified b,I reference to bankruptcy, insolvency and other laws relating to or affecting creditor's rights. Bankruptcy proceedings, if initiated, could suqject the cwners of the Bonds to judicial discretion and interpretation of their rights in bankruptcy or otherwise, and consequently may entail risks of delay, limitation, or modification of their rights.

LEGAL MATTERS

Legality for Investment in California

Under pr0.tisions of the State Financial Code, the Bonds are legal investments for commercial banks in the State to the extent that the Bands, in the informed opinion of the bank, are prudent for the investment of funds of depositors, and, under pr0.tisions of the State G0.ternment Code, are eligible for security for deposits of public moneys in the State.

Information Reporting Requirements

On May 17, 2006, the President signed the Tax Increase Prevention and Reconciliation Act of 2005 ("TIPRA"). Under Section 6049 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended b,I TIPRA, interest paid on tax-exempt obligations is suqject to information reporting in a manner sinilar to interest paid on taxable obligations. The effective date of this pr0.tision is for interest paid after December 31, 2005, regardless of when the tax-exempt obligations were issued. The purpose of this change was to assist i n relevant i nformati on gatheri ng for the I RS rel ati ng to other appi i cable tax pr0.tisions. Tl PRA pro.tides that backup withholding may appiy to such interest payments made after M arch 31, 2007 to any bondholder who fai Is to fi I e an accurate Form W -9 or who meets certai n other criteria The information reporting and backup withholding requirements of TIPRA do not affect the excl udabi I ity of such interest from gross income for federal i ncorne tax purposes.

Continuing Disclosure

Current Undertaking. In connection with the issuance of the Bonds, the District has co.tenanted for the benefit of bondholders (including the Beneficial owners of the Bonds) to pro.tide certain financial information and operating data relating to the District (the "Annual Reports") b,I not later than nine months follcwing the end of the District's fiscal year (which currently ends June 30), commencing with the report for the 2016-17 fiscal year, and to pro.tide notices of the occurrence of certain listed events. The Annual Reports and notices of listed events will be filed b,I the District in accordance with the requirements of the Rule. The specific nature of the information to be contained in the Annual Reports or the notices of listed events is included in "APPENDIX C - FORM OF CONTINUING DISCLOSURE CERTIFICATE" attached hereto. These co.tenants have been made in order to assist the Underwriter in compiyingwith the Rule.

Prior Undertakings. Within the past five years, the District has failed to file in a timely manner the annual reports required in connection with its prior continuing disclosure undertakings for fiscal year 2011-12. For such period, the District has failed to file certain notices of listed events as required in connection with its prior continuing disclosure undertakings.

68 Absence of Material Litigation

No litigation is pending or threatened concerning the validity of the Bonds, and a certificate to that effect will be furnished to purchasers at the time of the original delivery of the Bonds. The District is not aware of any litigation pending or threatened questioning the political existence of the District or contesting the District's ability to receive ad valorern property taxes or to collect other revenues or contesting the District's ability to issue and retire the Bonds.

Financial Statements

The financial statements with required supplemental information for the year ended June 30, 2016, the independent auditor's report of the District, and the related statements of activities and of cash flo.vs for the year then ended, and the report of Moss Levy & Hartzheim LLP (the "Auditor") dated December 15, 2016, are included in this Official Statement as APPENDIX B. In connection with the inclusion herein, the District did not request the Auditor to, and the Auditor has not undertaken to, update its report or to take any action i ntended or I i kely to elicit i nformati on concerni ng the accuracy, corrpl eteness or fairness of the statements rnade in this Official Statement, and no opinion is expressed b,I the Auditor with respect to any event subsequent to the date of its report.

Legal Opinion

The legal opinion of Bond Counsel, apprcwing the validity of the Bonds, will be supplied to the original purchasers of the B ands without cost. A cop,1 of the proposed forrn of such Iegal opinion is attached to this Official Statement as APPENDIX A.

MISCELLANEOUS

Ratings

The Bonds are expected to be assigned a rating of "AA," with a stabie outlook, b,I S&P, based upon the issuance of the Policy b,I BAM at the time the Bonds are delivered. S& P has also assigned the Bonds an underlying rating of "A-t''. The ratings reflect only the vie.vs of S& P and an explanation of the significance of such ratings rnay be obtained therefrom There is no assurance that the ratings will continue for any given period ohime or that they will not be revised dONnward or withdrawn entirely b,I S& P, if, in its judgment, circumstances so warrant. Any such dONnward revision or withdrawal of such ratings may have an ad.terse effect on the market price of the Bonds.

Generally, rating agencies base their ratings on information and materials furnished to thern (which rnay include information and material frorn the District which is not included in this Official Statement) and on investigations, studies and assumptions b,I the rating agencies.

The District has co.tenanted in a Continuing Disclosure Certificate to file on The Electronic Municipal Market Access ("EMMA") website operated b,I the Municipal Securities Rulernaking Board notices of any rating changes on the Bonds.

70 APPENDIX A

FORM OF OPINION OF BOND COUNSEL FOR THE BONDS

Upon the issuance and delivery of the Bonds, Stradling Yocca Carlson & Rauth, a Professional Corporation, Bond Counsel, proposes to render its final apprcwing opinion with respect to the Bonds substantially in the follc:M,ing form

May 4, 2017

B oard of Education Garvey School District

M embers of the Board of Education:

We have examined a certified cop,1 of the record of the proceedings relative to the issuance and sale of $10,000,000 Garvey School District Election of 2016 General Obligation Bonds, Series A (the "Bonds"). As to questions of fact material to our opinion, we have relied upon the certified proceedings and other certifications of public officials furnished to us without undertaking to verify the same b,I independent investigation.

Based on our exanination as bond counsel of existing law, certified copies of such legal proceedings and such other proofs as we deem necessary to renderthis opinion, we are of the opinion, as of the date hereof and under existing I aw, that:

1. Such proceedings and proofs shew Iawful authority for the issuance and sale of the Bonds pursuant to Article 4.5 of Chapter 3 of Part 1 of Division 2 of Title 5 of the California Gcwernment Code of the State of California (the "Act"), commencing with Section 535CXi et seq., a vote of 55% of the qualified electors of the Garvey School District (the "District'') voting at an election held on Ncwember 8, 2016, and a resolution of the Board of Trustees of the District (the "Resolution").

2. The Bonds constitute valid and binding general obligations of the District, payable as to both principal and interest from the proceeds of a levy of ad valorem taxes on all property suqject to such taxes in the District, which taxes are unlimited as to rate or amount.

3. Under existing statutes, regulations, rulings andjudicial decisions, interest on the Bands is excluded from gross i ncome for federal i ncome tax purposes and is not an i tern of tax preference for purposes of calculating the federal alternative minimum tax imposed on individuals and corporations; hcwever, it should be noted that, with respect to corporations, such interest on the Bonds may be included as an aqjustment in the calculation of alternative ninirnum taxable i ncome, which may affect the alternative mini mum tax I i abi Ii ty of such corporations.

4. Interest on the Bonds is exempt from State of California personal income tax.

5. The difference between the issue price of a Bond (the first price at which a substantial amount of the Bonds of a maturity is to be sold to the public) and the stated redemption price at maturity with respect to such Bonds constitutes original issue discount. Original issue discount accrues under a constant yield method, and original issue discount will accrue to a Bondcwner before receipt of cash attributable to such excludable income. The

A-1 amount of original issue discount deemed received b,I a Bondcwner will increase the Bondo.vner's basis in the applicable Bond. Original issue discount that accrues to the Bondo.vner is excluded from the gross income of such o.vner for federal income tax purp:ises, is not an item of tax preference for purp:ises of the federal alternative minimum tax imp:ised on individuals and corporations, and is exempt from State of California personal income tax.

6. The amount b,I which a Bondcwner's original basis for determining loss on sale or exchange in the applicable Bond (generally, the purchase price) exceeds the amount payable on maturity (or on an earlier call date) constitutes amortizable Bond premium, which must be amortized under Section 171 of the of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"); such amorti zabl e Bond preni um reduces the Bondcwner' s basis in the appl i cable B ond (and the amount of tax-exempt interest received), and is not deductible for federal income tax purp:ises. The basis reduction as a result of the amortization of Bond prenium may result in a Bondo.vner realizing a taxable gain when a Bond is sold b,I the Bondo.vner for an amount equal to or I ess ( under certain circumstances) than the original cost of the Bond to the B ondcwner. Purchasers of the Bonds should consult their o.vn tax ad.tisors as to the treatment, computation and collateral consequences of amortizable Bond premium

The opinions expressed herein may be affected b,I actions taken (or not taken) or events occurring ( or not occurring) after the date hereof. We have not undertaken to deterni ne, or to inform any person, whether any such actions or events are taken or do occur. The Resolutions and the Tax Certificate relating to the Bonds permit certain actions to be taken or to be omitted if a favorable opinion of Bond Counsel is pro.tided with respect thereto. No opi ni on is expressed herei n as to the effect on the exclusion from gross income of interest (and original issue discount) for federal income tax purp:ises with respect to any Bond if any such action is taken or omitted based upon the ad.tice of counsel other than ourselves. Other than expressly stated herei n, we express no opinion regarding tax consequences with respect to the Bonds.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT

Board of Trustees Garvey School District Rosemead, California

Report on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the governmental activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information for the Garvey School District (District) as of and for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2016, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the District's basic financial statements as listed in the table of contents.

Management's Responsibility for the Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor's Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in GovernmentAuditing 5 tandards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States and the 2015-2016 Guide for Annual Audits of California K-12 Local Educational Agencies and State Compliance Reporting published by the California Education Audit Appeals Panel. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor's judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity's preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity's internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinions.

Opinions In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of the governmental activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the Garvey School District, as of June 30, 2016, and the respective changes in financial position for the fiscal year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

OVERVIEW OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The first two statements are district-wide financial statements that pravi de bcth short -terrn and long-terrn i nforrnation about the District's OJerall financial status.

5 GARVEY SCHOOL DISTRICT MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS June 30, 2016

The remainder of this averview section of management's discussion and analysis highlights the structure and contents of each of the statements.

Gavernment-wide Statements

The gavernment-wide statements report information about the District as a whole using accounting methods similar to those used by private-sector companies. The statement of net position includes al I of the District's assets and liabilities. All of the current year's revenues and expenses are accounted for in the statement of activities regardless of when cash is received or paid.

The two gavernment-wide statements report the District's net position and hew they have changed. Net position - the difference between the District's assets and I iabi Ii ties - is one way to measure the District's financial health or position.

Overtime, increases and decreases in the District's net position are an indicator of whether its financial position is imprcwing or deteriorating.

To assess the cwerall health of the District, you need to consider additional nonfinancial factors such as changes i n the Di stri ct' s property tax base and the condition of school bui I di ngs and other faci I i ti es.

In the gavernment-wide financial statements, the District's activities are categorized as Gavernmental Activities. Most of the District's basic services are included here, such as regular and special education, transportation, and admi ni strati on. Property taxes and state formula aid finance most of these activities.

Fund Financial Statements

The fund financial statements pravide detailed information about the District's most significant funds - not the District as a whole. Funds are accounting devices the District uses to keep track of specific sources of funding and spending on particular programs:

Some funds are required by State law and by bond cavenants.

The District estall ishes other funds to contrd and manage money for particular purposes (like repaying its long-term debt) or to shavv that it is properly using certain revenues (like Federal grants).

6 GARVEY SCHOOL DISTRICT MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS J une 30, 2016

The District has two kinds of funds:

Gavernrnental funds - Most of the District's basic services are included in gavernmental funds, which generally focus on ( 1) havv cash and other financial assets that can readily be converted to cash fl cw in and out and ( 2) the balances I eft at year-end that are avai I able for spending. Consequently, the gavernmental funds statements prcwi de a detai I ed short -terrn view that helps you deterrri ne whether there are rnore or fewer financial resources that can be spent in the near future to finance the District's programs. Because this information does nct encompass the additional long-terrn focus of the gavernment-wide statements, we pravide reconci Ii ati on of the gcwernmental funds to the gavernment-wide statements that explains the relationship (or differences) between them

Fiduciary funds - The Di strict is the trustee, or fiduciary, for assets that belong to others, such as the student activities funds. The District is responsible for ensuring that the assets reported in these funds are used only for their intended purposes and b,' those to whorn the assets belong. A 11 of the Di strict' s fi duci ary acti vi ti es are reported i n a separate statement of fiduciary assets and liabilities. We exclude these activities frorn the gavernment-wide financial statements because the District cannot use these assets to finance its operations.

FINANCIAL ANALYSIS OF THE DISTRICT ASA WHOLE

Net Position. The District's corri:Jined net position onJ une 30, 2016 was ($28,537,926). (See Table A-1.)

(More detailed information about the District's long-term liablities is presented in Note 7 to the financial statements.)

FACTORS BEARING ON THE DISTRICT'S FUTURE

The District is currently financially sound, rut may face a num~r of fiscal challenges in the future. Along with many other school districts in Los Angeles County, the District is in a period of declining K-12 enrol I ment. This decline is attri butabi e to the continued decline of the County's birth rate and other factors, such as housing costs. Lasses in enrol I ment wi 11 cause a school district to lose operating revenues without necessarily perrritting the district to make timely adjustments to fixed operating costs.

In addition to declining enrollment, the District also faces fi seal challenges due to impementing the LCFF for distri b.Jti ng State aid, and the impementation period of 5 more years.

The District's fiscal team continuously monitors information, data, and forecasts of the State's economy, revenue, and budgetary proposals. District planners use this information to make decisions that will maintain the financial stability of the District

The District's systems of budgeting and internal contrds are well-regarded and will ~ used to meetthe District's future financial challenges.

22 GARVEY SCHOOL DISTRICT NOTES TO BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS June 30, 2016

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

A. Accounting Policies

The District accounts for its financial transactions in accordance with policies and procedures of the Department of Education's California School Accounting Manual. The accounting policies of the District conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America as prescribed by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASE) and the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AI CPA).

B Reporting Entity

The reporting entity is the Garvey School District. There are no component units included in this report which meet the reporting entity definition criteria of GASE Statement No. 14, The Financial Reporting Entity, as amended by GASE Statement No. 39 and GASE Statement No. 61.

C. Basis of Presentation

G 0/ernrrent-wide Financial Staterrents:

The government-wide financial statements (i.e., the statement of net position and the statement of activities) report information on all of the nonfiduciary activities of the District.

The government-wide statements are prepared using the economic resources measurement focus. Government-wide statements differ from the manner in which governmental fund financial statements are prepared. Governmental fund financial statements, therefore, include reconciliation with brief explanations to better identify the relationship between the government-wide statements and the statements for the governmental funds.

Certain eliminations have been made as prescribed by GASE Statement No. 34 in regards to interfund activities, payables, and receivables. All internal balances in the Statement of Net Position and Statement of Activities have been eliminated, including due to/from other funds and transfers in/out.

The government-wide statement of activities presents a comparison between direct expenses and program revenues for each function or program of the District's governmental activities. Direct expenses are those that are specifically associated with a service, program, or department and are, therefore, clearly identifiable to a particular function. The District does not allocate indirect expenses to functions in the statement of activities. Program revenues include charges paid by the recipients of goods or services offered by a program, as well as grants and contributions that are restricted to meet the operational or capital requirements of a particular program. Revenues which are not classified as program revenues are presented as general revenues of the District, with certain exceptions. The comparison of direct expenses with program revenues identifies the extent to which each governmental function is self-financing or draws from the general revenues of the District.

Fund Financial Staterrents:

Fund financial statements report detailed information about the District. The focus of governmental fund financial statements is on major funds rather than reporting funds by type. Each major governmental fund is presented in a separate column, and all non-major funds are aggregated into one column. Fiduciary funds are reported by fund type.

The accounting and financial treatment applied to a fund is determined by its measurement focus. All governmental funds are accounted for using a flow of current financial resources measurement focus. With this measurement focus, only current assets and current liabilities are generally included on the balance sheet. The Statement of Revenues, Expenditures, and Changes in Fund Balances for these funds present increases (i.e., revenues and other financing sources) and decreases (i.e., expenditures and other financing uses) in net current assets.

23 GARVEY SCHOOL DISTRICT NOTES TO BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS June 30, 2016

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

D. Basis of Accounting

Basis of accounting refers to when revenues and expenditures are recognized in the accounts and reported in the financial statements. Government-wide financial statements are prepared using the accrual basis of accounting. Governmental funds use the modified accrual basis of accounting. Fiduciary funds use the accrual basis of accounting.

Revenues - exchange and non-exchange transactions:

Revenue resulting from exchange transactions, in which each party gives and receives essentially equal value, is recorded under the accrual basis when the exchange takes place. On the modified accrual basis, revenue is recorded in the fiscal year in which the resources are measurable and become available. "Available" means the resources will be collected within the current fiscal year or are expected to be collected soon enough thereafter to be used to pay liabilities of the current fiscal year. For the District, "available" means collectible within the current period or within one year after fiscal year end.

Non-exchange transactions, in which the District receives value without directly giving equal value in return, include property taxes, grants, and entitlements. Under the accrual basis, revenue from property taxes is recognized in the fiscal year for which the taxes are levied. Revenue from grants and entitlements is recognized in the fiscal year in which all eligibility requirements have been satisfied. Eligibility requirements include timing requirements, which specify the fiscal year when the resources are to be used or the fiscal year when use is first permitted; matching requirements, in which the District must provide local resources to be used for a specific purpose; and expenditure requirements, in which the resources are provided to the District on a reimbursement basis. Under the modified accrual basis, revenue from non-exchange transactions must also be available before it can be recognized.

Unearned Revenue:

Unearned revenue arises when assets are received before revenue recognition criteria have been satisfied. Grants and entitlements received before eligibility requirements are met are recorded as unearned revenue.

Pensions:

For purposes of measuring the net pension liability and deferred outflows/inflows of resources related to pensions, and pension expense, information about the fiduciary net position of the Garvey School District's California Public Employees' Retirement System (CalPERS) and California State Teachers' Retirement System (CalSTRS) Plans and additions to/deductions from the Plans' fiduciary net position have been determined on the same basis as they are reported by CalPERS and CalSTRS. For this purpose, benefit payments (including refunds of employee contributions) are recognized when due and payable in accordance with the benefit terms. Investments are reported as fair value.

Expenses/expenditures:

On the accrual basis of accounting, expenses are recognized at the time a liability is incurred. On the modified accrual basis of accounting, expenditures are generally recognized in the accounting period in which the related fund liability is incurred, as under the accrual basis of accounting. However, under the modified accrual basis of accounting, debt service expenditures, as well as expenditures related to compensated absences and claims and judgments, are recorded only when payment is due. Allocation of costs, such as depreciation and amortization, are not recognized in the governmental funds.

When both restricted and unrestricted resources are available for use, it is the District's policy to use restricted resources first, then unrestricted resources as they are needed.

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

E. Fund Accounting

The accounts of the District are organized on the basis of funds, each of which is considered to be a separate accounting entity. The operations of each fund are accounted for with a separate set of self-balancing accounts that comprise its assets, liabilities, fund equity or retained earnings, revenues, and expenditures or expenses, as appropriate. District resources are allocated to and accounted for in individual funds based upon the purpose for which they are to be spent and the means by which spending activities are controlled. The District's accounts are organized into major, non-major, and fiduciary funds as follows:

Major G CNernrrental Funds:

The General Fund is the general operating fund of the District. It is used to account for all financial resources except those required to be accounted for in another fund.

The Child Development Fund is used to account for resources committed to child development programs maintained by the District.

Non-rrajor G 0/ernrrental Funds: Special Revenue Funds are established to account for the proceeds from specific revenue sources (other than trusts, major capital projects, or debt service) that are restricted or committed to the financing of particular activities and that compose a substantial portion of the inflows of the fund. Additional resources that are restricted, committed, or assigned to the purpose of the fund may also be reported in the fund. The District maintains two nomnajor special revenue funds:

1. The Cafeteria Fund is used to account for revenues received and expenditures incurred to operate the District's food service operations.

2. The Deferred Maintenance Fund is used for the purpose of major repair or replacement of District property.

Debt Service Fund is used to account for the accumulation of resources for, and the payment of, long-term debt principal, interest, and related costs. The District maintains one nonmajor debt service fund.

The Bond Interest and Redemption Fund is used to account for the accumulation of resources for, and the repayment of, general obligation bonds, interest, and related costs.

Capital Projects Funds are used to account for and report financial resources that are restricted or committed or assigned to expenditure for capital outlays, including the acquisition and/or construction of capital facilities and other capital assets. The District maintains three nonmajor capital project funds:

1. The Building Fund is used to account for the acquisition and modernization of major govermnental capital facilities and buildings from the sale of general obligation bonds.

2. The County School Facilities Fund is used to account separately for apportiomnents from the State School Facilities Fund authorized by the State Allocation Board for new school facility construction, modernization projects, and facility hardship grants.

3. The Capital Facilities Fund is used to account for resources received from developer impact fees assessed under provisions of the California Enviromnental Quality Act (CEQA).

Fiduciary Fund: Agency Fund is used to account for assets of others for which the District acts as an agent. The District maintains one agency fund for payroll clearance purposes. 25 GARVEY SCHOOL DISTRICT NOTES TO BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS June 30, 2016

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

F Budgets and Budgetary Accounting Annual budgets are adopted on a basis consistent with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for all governmental funds. By state law, the District's governing board must adopt a final budget no later than July I. A public hearing must be conducted to receive comments prior to adoption. The District's governing board satisfied these requirements.

These budgets are revised by the District's governing board and District Superintendent during the fiscal year to give consideration to unanticipated income and expenditures. The original and final revised budgets are presented for the General Fund in the financial statements. Formal budgetary integration was employed as a management control device during the fiscal year for all budgeted funds. The District employs budget control by minor object and by individual appropriation accounts. Expenditures cannot legally exceed appropriations by major object account.

G. Encumbrances Encumbrance accounting is used in all budgeted funds to reserve portions of applicable appropriations for which commitments have been made. Encumbrances are recorded for purchase orders, contracts, and other commitments when they are written. Encumbrances are liquidated when the commitments are paid. All encumbrances are liquidated at June 30.

H. Assets Deferred Outflows of Resources Liabilities Deferred Inflows of Resources and Net Position or Fund Balance 1. Deposits and Investments Cash balances held in banks and in revolving funds are insured up to $250,000 by the Federal Depository Insurance Corporation. All cash held by the financial institutions is fully insured or collateralized. In accordance with Education Code Section 41001, the District maintains substantially all of its cash in the Los Angeles County Treasury. The County pools these funds with those of other districts in the County and invests the cash. These pooled funds are carried at fair value. Interest earned is deposited quarterly into participating funds. Any investment losses are proportionately shared by all funds in the pool.

The County is authorized to deposit cash and invest excess funds by California Government Code Section 53648 et. seq.. The funds maintained by the County are either secured by federal depository insurance or are collateralized, per the California Government Code. Information regarding the amount of dollars invested in derivatives with the Los Angeles County Treasury was not available.

2. Receivables and Payables Transactions between funds that are representative of lending/borrowing arrangements outstanding at the end of the fiscal year are referred to as interfund receivables/payables.

3. Inventories and Prepaid Items Inventories are recorded using the consumption method, whereby inventory acquisitions are initially recorded in inventory (asset) accounts, and are charged as expenditures when used. Reported inventories are equally offset by a nonspendable fund balance, which indicates that these amounts are not "available for appropriation and expenditure" even though they are a component of net current assets.

The District's central warehouse and cafeteria inventory are presented at the lower of cost or market on a first-in, first-out (FIFO) basis and are expensed when used in the government-wide financial statements.

The District has the option of reporting expenditures in governmental funds for prepaid items either when purchased or during the benefiting period. The District has chosen to report the expenditures during the period benefited. 26 GARVEY SCHOOL DISTRICT NOTES TO BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS June 30, 2016

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) H. Assets Deferred Outflows of Resources Liabilities Deferred Inflows of Resources and Net Position or Fund Balance (Continued) 4. Deferred Outflows and Inflows of Resources

The District reports deferred outflows and inflows of resources. A deferred outflow of resources is a consumption of net position that is applicable to a future reporting period. A deferred inflow of resources represents an acquisition of net position that is applicable to a future period.

Under the modified accrual basis of accounting, it is not enough that revenue has been earned if it is to be recognized as revenue of the current period. Revenue must also be susceptible to accrual; it must be both measurable and available to finance expenditures of the current fiscal period. If assets are recognized in connection with a transaction, but those assets are not yet available to finance expenditures of the current fiscal period, then the assets must be offset by a corresponding deferred inflow of resources. This type of deferred inflow is unique to governmental funds, since it is tied to the modified accrual basis of accounting, which is used only in connection with governmental funds. Occasionally, the District refunds some of its existing debt. When this occurs, the difference between the funds required to retire (reacquisition price of) the refunded debt and the net carrying amount of refunded debt results in a deferred amount on refunding. If there is an excess of the reacquisition price of refunded debt over its net carrying amount, it is treated as a deferred outflow of resources (a deferred loss on refunding). If there is an excess net carrying value amount of refunded debt over its reacquisition price, it is treated as a deferred inflow of resources ( a deferred gain on refunding). 5. Amortization of Bond Premium and Discount Bond premiums and discounts are being amortized on the straight line method over the life of the bonds on the government-wide statements.

6. Deferred Loss on Refunding The District has incurred a loss on the refunding of its debt. The deferred loss is being amortized using the straight line method over the lesser of the remaining period of the old debt or the remaining period of the new debt on the government-wide statements.

7. Capital Assets Capital assets are those purchased or acquired with an original cost of $5,000 or more, and are reported at historical cost or estimated historical cost. Contributed assets are reported at fair value as of the date received. Additions, improvements, and other capital outlays that significantly extend the useful life of an asset are capitalized. The costs of normal maintenance and repairs that do not add to the value of the capital assets or materially extend the capital asset's lives are not capitalized, but are expensed as incurred. Depreciation on all capital assets is computed using the straight-line basis over the following estimated useful lives.

Descri ti.on Estimated Lives

Buildings and Improvements 25-50 years Furniture and Equipment 15-20 years Vehicles 8 years 8. Unearned Revenue Cash received for federal and state special projects and programs is recognized as revenue to the extent that qualified expenditures have been incurred. Unearned revenue is recorded to the extent cash received on specific projects and programs exceed qualified expenditures.

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

H. Assets Deferred Outflows of Resources Liabilities Deferred Inflows of Resources and Net Position or Fund Balance (Continued)

9. Compensated Absences All vacation pay plus related payroll taxes is accrued when incurred in the government-wide financial statements. A liability for these amounts is reported in the governmental funds only if they have matured, for example, as a result of employee resignations or retirements.

Accumulated sick leave benefits are not recognized as liabilities of the District. The District's policy is to record sick leave as an operating expense in the period taken since such benefits do not vest nor is payment probable. Unused sick leave is added to the creditable service period for calculation of retirement benefits when the employee retires.

10. Long-Tenn Obligations

In the government-wide financial statements, long-term debt and other long-term obligations are reported as liabilities in the Statement of Net Position. Bond premiums and discounts are deferred and amortized over the life of the bonds using the straight-line method. Bonds payable is reported net of applicable bond premium or discount.

In the fund financial statements, governmental funds recognize bond premiums and discounts during the current period. The face amount of the debt issued, premiums, or discounts is reported as other financing sources/uses.

11. Fund Balance

As of June 30, 2016, fund balances of the governmental funds are classified as follows:

Nonspendable - amounts that cannot be spent either because they are in nonspendable form or because they are legally or contractually required to be maintained intact.

Restricted - amounts that can be spent only for specific purposes because of constitutional provisions or enabling legislation or because of constraints that are externally imposed by creditors, grantors, contributors, or the laws or regulations of other governments.

Committed - amounts that can be used only for specific purposes determined by a formal action of the governing board is the highest level of decision-making authority for the district. Commitments may be established, modified, or rescinded only through ordinances or resolutions approved by the governing board.

Assigned- amounts that do not meet the criteria to be classified as restricted or committed but that are intended to be used for specific purposes. Under the District's adopted policy, only the governing board or director may assign amounts for specific purposes. Unassigned- all other spendable amounts. When an expenditure is incurred for purposes for which both restricted and unrestricted fund balance 1s available, the district considers restricted funds to have been spent first. When an expenditure is incurred for which committed, assigned, or unassigned fund balance are available, the District considers amounts to have been spent first out of committed funds, then assigned funds, and finally unassigned funds, as needed, unless the governing board has provided otherwise in its commitment or assignment actions.

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

H. Assets Deferred Outflows of Resources Liabilities Deferred Inflows of Resources and Net Position or Fund Balance (Continued)

12. Net Position

The government-wide statement of net position includes three equity categories entitled net investment in capital assets; restricted net position; and unrestricted net position. The net investment in capital assets category presents the District's equity interest in capital assets less outstanding principal of related debt. The restricted net position category is designed to reflect net position that are subject to restrictions beyond the District's control (externally imposed or imposed by law). The unrestricted net position category equals any remaining balance and can be subdivided into designated and undesignated portions. Designations reflect the District's self-imposed limitations on the use of otherwise available current financial resources. The District had no net position which was restricted by enabling legislation.

I. Property Tax

The County is responsible for assessing, collecting, and apportioning property taxes. Taxes are levied for each fiscal year on taxable real and personal property in the County. The levy is based on the assessed values of the preceding January I, which is also the lien date. Property taxes on the secured roll are due on November I and February I, and taxes become delinquent after December 10 and April 10, respectively. Property taxes on the unsecured roll are due on the lien date (January!), and become delinquent if unpaid by August 31.

Secured property taxes are recorded as revenue when apportioned, in the fiscal year of the levy. The County apportions secured property tax revenue in accordance with the alternate method of distribution prescribed by Section 4705 of the California Revenue and Taxation Code. This alternate method provides for crediting each applicable fund with its total secured taxes upon completion of the secured tax roll - approximately October I of each fiscal year.

The County Auditor reports the amount of the District's allocated property tax revenue to the California Department of Education. Property taxes are recorded as Local Control Funding Formula (LCFF) local sources by the District.

J Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenditures/expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those reported.

The hierarchy is based on the valuation inputs used to measure the fair value of the asset. These principles recognize a three-tiered fair value hierarchy. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets; Level 2 inputs are significant other observable inputs; Level 3 inputs are significant unobservable inputs. The District had investments in the Los Angeles County Investment Pool, however, this external pool is not measured under Level 1, 2 or 3.

NOTE 2 - CASH AND INVESTMENTS (Continued)

Cash in County Treasury

In accordance with Education Code Section 41001, the District maintains substantially all of its cash in the Los Angeles County Treasury as part of the common investment pool ($20,266,757 as of June 30, 2016). The fair value of this pool as of June 30, 2016 as provided by the plan sponsor, was $20,266,757. The District is considered to be an involuntary participant in the external pool. Interest is deposited in the participating funds. The County is restricted by Government Code Section 53635, pursuant to Section 53601, to invest in time deposits, U.S. government securities, state registered warrants, notes or bonds, State Treasurer's investment pool, bankers' acceptances, commercial paper, negotiable certificates of deposit, and repurchase or reverse repurchase agreements.

Cash on Hand, in Banks, and in Revolving Fund

Cash balance on hand and in banks ($59,984) as of June 30, 2016 and in the revolving fund ($30,000) are insured up to $250,000 by the Federal Depository Insurance Corporation. All cash held by the financial institution is fully insured or collateralized.

Investments Authorized by the District's Investment Policy

The District's investment policy only authorizes investment in the local government investment pool administered by the County of Los Angeles. The District's investment policy does not contain any specific provisions intended to limit the District's exposure to interest rate risk, credit risk, and concentration of credit risk.

Disclosures Relating to Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that changes in market interest rates will adversely affect the fair value of an investment. Generally, the longer the maturity of an investment, the greater the sensitivity of its fair value to changes in market interest rates. One of the ways that the District manages its exposure to interest rate risk is by purchasing a combination of shorter term and longer term investments and by timing cash flows from maturities so that a portion of the portfolio is maturing or coming close to maturity evenly over time as necessary to provide the cash flow and liquidity needed for operations.

Information about the sensitivity of the fair values of the District's investments to market interest rate fluctuations is provided by the following table that shows the distribution of the District's investments by maturity:

Total $ 20,266,757 $ 20,266,757 $ $ $

Disclosures Relating to Credit Risk

Generally, credit risk is the risk that an issuer of an investment will not fulfill its obligation to the holder of the investment. This is measured by the assignment of a rating by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization. Presented below is the minimum rating required by the California Government Code and the District's investment policy, and the actual rating as of fiscal year end for each investment type.

Concentration of Credit Risk

The District's investment policy only authorizes investment in the local government investment pool administered by the County of Los Angeles. The District's investment policy does not contain any specific provisions intended to limit the District's exposure to interest rate risk, credit risk, and concentration of credit risk. There are no investments in any one issuer (other than U.S. Treasury securities, mutual funds, and external investment pools) that represent 5% or more of the total District investments.

Custodial Credit Risk

Custodial credit risk for deposits is the risk that, in the event of the failure of a depository financial institution, a government will not be able to recover its deposits or will not be able to recover collateral securities that are in the possession of an outside party. The California Government Code and the District's investment policy do not contain legal or policy requirements that would limit the exposure to custodial credit risk for deposits, other than the following provision for deposits: The California Government Code requires that a financial institution secure deposits made by state or local governmental units by pledging securities in an undivided collateral pool held by a depository regulated under state law (unless so waived by the governmental unit). The fair value of the pledged securities in the collateral pool must equal at least 110% of the total amount deposited by the public agencies. California law also allows financial institutions to secure the District's deposits by pledging first trust deed mortgage notes having a value of 150% of the secured public deposits.

As of June 30, 2016, none of the District's deposits with financial institutions in excess of federal depository insurance limits were held in uncollateralized accounts.

The custodial credit risk for investrrents is the risk that, in the event of the failure of the counterparty ( e.g., broker-dealer) to a transaction, a government will not be able to recover the value of its investment or collateral securities that are in the possession of another party. The California Government Code and the District's investment policy do not contain legal or policy requirements that would limit the exposure to custodial credit risk for investments. With respect to investments, custodial credit risk generally applies only to direct investments in marketable securities. Custodial credit risk does not apply to a local government's indirect investment in securities through the use of mutual funds or government investment pools (such as Los Angeles County Investment Pool).

NOTE 5 - INTERFUND TRANSACTIONS

Interfund transactions are reported as loans, services provided, reimbursements, or transfers. Loans are reported as interfund receivables and payables, as appropriate, and are subject to elimination upon consolidation. Services provided, deemed to be at market or near market rates, are treated as revenues and expenditures/expenses. Reimbursements occur when one fund incurs a cost, charges the appropriate benefiting fund, and reduces its related cost as a reimbursement. All other interfund transactions are treated as transfers. Transfers among governmental funds are netted as part of the reconciliation to the government-wide financial statements.

Interfund Transfers

Interfund transfers consist of transfers from funds receiving revenue to funds through which the resources are to be expended.

Funding Policy

The contribution requirement of plan members and the District are established under a funding policy approved by the District's Board, and may be amended by the District from time to time. The District's funding policy is to contribute an amount sufficient to pay the current year's retiree costs. For fiscal year 2016, the District contributed $1,132,700 to the plan, all of which was used for current premiums and no pre funded benefits had been made.

B Other Postemployment Benefits (OPEB) (Continued)

Annual OPEB and Net OPEB Obligation

The District's annual other postemployment benefit (OPEB) cost (expense) is calculated based on the annual required contribution of the employer (ARC), and amount actuarially determined in accordance with the parameters of GASE Statement No. 45. The ARC represents a level of funding that, if paid on an ongoing basis, is projected to cover normal cost each year and amortize any unfunded actuarial liabilities (or funding excess) over a period not to exceed thirty years. The following table shows the components of the District's annual OPEB cost for the fiscal year, the amount actually contributed to the plan, and changes in the District's net OPEB obligation.

Amual required contribution $ 1,595,777 Interest on net OPEB obligation 308,451 Adjustment to annual required contribution (382,194) Annual OPEB cost (expense) 1,522,034 Contributions made (1,132,700) Increase in net OPEB obligation 389,334 Net OPEB obligation- beginning of fiscal year 6,169,013 Net OPEB obligation- end of fiscal year $ 6,558,347

The District's annual OPEB cost, the percentage of annual OPEB cost contributed to the plan, and the net OPEB obligation was as follows: Percentage of Fiscal Annual OPEB Net Year Annual Cost OPEB Ended OPEB Cost Contribution Obligation

6/30/2014 $ 1,384,020 -57.48% $ 5,715,142 6/30/2015 1,518,716 -74.42% 6,169,013 6/30/2016 1,522,034 -34.37% 6,558,347

Funded Status and Funding Progress As of July 1, 2014, the most recent actuarial valuation date, the plan was zero percent funded. The actuarial accrued liability for benefits was $15,629,414, and the actuarial value of assets was $0, resulting in an unfunded actuarial accrued liability (UAAL) of$15,629,414. Actuarial valuations of an ongoing plan involve estimates of the value of reported amounts and assumptions about the probability of occurrence of events far into the future. Examples include assumptions about future employment, mortality, and the healthcare cost trend. Amounts determined regarding the funded status of the plan and the annual required contributions of the employer are subject to continual revision as actual results are compared with past expectations and new estimates are made about the future. The schedule of funding progress, present as required supplementary information following the notes to the basic financial statements, present multi-year trend information about whether the actuarial value of plan assets is increasing or decreasing over time relative to the actuarial accrued liabilities for benefits. Actuarial Methods and Assumptions

Projections of benefits for financial reporting purposes are based on the substantive plan (the plan as understood by the employer and the plan members) and include the types of benefits provided at the time of each valuation and the historical pattern of sharing of benefit costs between the employer and plan members to that point. The actuarial methods and assumptions used include techniques that are designed to reduce the effects of short-term volatility in actuarial accrued liabilities and the actuarial value of assets, consistent with the long-term perspective of the calculations. 38 GARVEY SCHOOL DISTRICT NOTES TO BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS June 30, 2016

NOTE 7 - LONG-TERM DEBT (Continued)

B Other Postemployment Benefits (OPEB) (Continued)

Actuarial Methods and Assumptions (Continued)

In the July 1, 2014 actuarial valuation, the unit credit cost method was used. The actuarial assumptions included a 5% investment rate of return, which is the expected long-term investment returns on plan assets expected to be held by the plan and an annual healthcare cost trend rate of 7% for future years trending down to an ultimate 5% increase for 2018 and later years. The actuarial value of assets is not applicable (no assets as of the initial valuation date). The UAAL is being amortized as a closed, level dollar method over 30 years. The remaining amortization period at July 1, 2014 was thirty years.

NOTE 8 - JOINT VENTURES

The District is a member of two joint powers agencies (JPAs): the Mountain View, El Monte City, Rosemead, Garvey, and El Monte Union High School Districts (MERGE) public entity risk pool, and the Alliance of Schools for Cooperative Insurance Program (ASCIP). The relationships between the District and the JPAs are such that the JPAs are not component units of the District for financial reporting purposes.

The MERGE IPA provides worker's compensation, property, and liability insurance for its member districts. ASCIP provides dental coverage, vision care, and life insurance for its member school districts. The J'vIERGE JPA is governed by a board consisting of one representative from each member district. The governing board controls the operations of the JPA, independent of any influence by the member districts. Each member district pays a premium commensurate with the level of coverage requested and shares surpluses and deficits proportionally to its participation in the JPA.

NOTE 9 - RISK MANAGEMENT

The District is exposed to various risks of loss related to torts, thefts, damage to District's assets, errors and omissions, employee injuries and natural disasters. The District participates in public entity risk pools, as described in Note 8, for claims in excess of insured amounts for workers' compensation and property and liability losses. The District purchases commercial insurance for other types of risk. Settled claims have not exceeded this commercial coverage in any of the past three fiscal years.

NOTE 10 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

A State and Federal Allowances Awards and Grants

The District has received state and federal funds for specific purposes that are subject to review and audit by the grantor agencies. Although such audits could generate expenditure disallowances under terms of the grants, it is believed that any required reimbursements will not be material.

B. Litigation

According to the District's staff and attorney, no contingent liabilities are outstanding and no lawsuits are pending of any real financial consequence.

Benefits Provided - The CALSTRS Defined Benefit Program has two benefit formulas:

CalSTRS 2% at 60: Members first hired on or before December 31, 2012, to perform services that could be creditable to CalSTRS

CalSTRS 2% at 62: Members first hired on or after January 1, 2013, to perform services that could be creditable to CalSTRS

The Defined Benefit Program provides retirement benefits based on members' final compensation, age and years of service credit. In addition, the retirement program provides benefits to members upon disability and on survivors/beneficiaries upon death of eligible members.

After earning five years of credited service, members become 100 percent vested in retirement benefits.

After five years of credited service, a member (prior to age 60 if under Coverage A, no age limit if under Coverage B, as defined in Education Code Sections 24001 and 24101, respectively) is eligible for disability benefits of up to 50.0 percent of final compensation plus 10.0 percent of final compensation for each eligible child, up to a maximum addition of 40.0 percent. The member must have a disability that will exceed a period of 12 or more months to qualify for benefit.

Any compensation for service in excess of one year in a school year due to overtime or working additional assignments is credited to the Defined Benefit Supplement Program so long as it is under the creditable compensation limit. Other compensation, such as allowances, bonuses, cash in-lieu of fringe benefits, limited-period compensation or compensation determined to have been paid to enhance a benefit, are not creditable to any CalSTRS benefit program.

The Plans' provisions and benefits in effect at June 30, 2016, are summarized as follows:

CalSTRS uses custom mortality tables to best fit the patterns of mortality among its members. These custom tables are based on RP2000 series tables adjusted to fit CalSTRS experience. RP2000 series tables are an industry standard set of mortality rates published o, the Society of Actuaries. See CalSTRS July 1, 2006 -June 30, 2010 Experience Analysis for more inform1tion.

The long-term expected rate of return on pension plan investments was deterrrined using a building-block method in which best-estim1te ranges of expected future real rates of return (expected returns, net of pension plan investment expense and inflation) are developed for each m1jor asset class. The best-estim1te ranges were developed using capital m1rket assumptions from CalSTRS general investment consultant (Pension Consulting Alliance - PCA) as an input to the process. Based on the model from CalSTRS consulting actuary's (Millim1n) investment practice, a best estim1te range was deterrrined 0y assuming the portfolio is re-balanced annually and that annual returns are norm1lly distributed and independent from year to year to da,elop expected percentiles for the long-term distribution of annualized returns. The assumed asset allocation o, PCA is based on board policy for target asset allocation in effect on February 2, 2012, the date the current experience stu0y was apprCNed o, the board. Best estim1tes of 10-year geometric real rates of return and the assumed asset allocation for each m1jor asset class used as input to develop the actuarial investment rate of return are summ1rized in the follo.ving table:

Discount Rate - The discount rate used to measure the total pension liability was 7.60 percent The projection of cash flows used to determine the discount rate assumed that contributions from plan members and employers will be made at statutory contribution rates in accordance with the rate increases per AB 1469. Projected inflows from investment earnings were calculated using the long-term assumed investment rate of return (7.60 percent) and assuming that contributions, benefit payments, and administrative expense occur midyear. Based on those assumptions, the CalSTRS fiduciary net position was projected to be available to make all projected future benefit payments to current plan members. Therefore, the long-term assumed investment rate of return was applied to all periods of projected benefit payments to determine the total pension liability.

Sensitivity of the Proportionate Share of the Net Pension Liability to Changes in the Discount Rate - The following presents the District's proportionate share of the net pension liability, calculated using the discount rate, as well as what the District's proportionate share of the net pension liability would be if it were calculated using a discount rate that is I percentage point lower or I percentage point higher than the current rate:

California Public Employees' Retirement System (CalPERS)

A. General Information About the Pension Plan

Plan Description - The Garvey School District contributes to the School Employer Pool under the California Public Employees' Retirement System (CalPERS), a cost-sharing multiple-employer public employee retirement system defined benefit pension plan administered by CalPERS. Plan membership consists of non-teaching and non-certificated employees of public schools (K-12), community college districts, offices of education, charter and private schools (elective) in the State of California. Benefit provisions are established by State statutes, as legislatively amended, within the Public Employees' Retirement Law. CalPERS issues a separate comprehensive annual financial report that includes financial statements and required supplementary information. Copies of the CalPERS' annual financial report may be obtained from the CalPERS Executive Office, 400 P Street, Sacramento, California 95814.

Benefits Provided - The CalPERS Defined Benefit Program has two benefit formulas:

CalPERS 2% at 55: Members first hired on or before December 31, 2012, to perform service that could be creditable to CalPERS.

CalPERS 2% at 62: Members first hired on or after January 1, 2013, to perform service that could be creditable to CalPERS.

The Defined Benefit Program provides retirement benefits based on members' final compensation, age, and years of service credit. In addition, the retirement program provides benefits to members upon disability and to survivors/beneficiaries upon the death of eligible members.

After earning five years of credited service, members become 100 percent vested in retirement benefits.

A family benefit is available if an active member dies and has at least one year of credited service.

Members' accumulated contributions are refundable with interest upon separation from CalPERS. The board determines the credited interest rate each fiscal year. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015, the rate of interest credited to members' accounts was 6 percent.

The member's benefit is reduced dollar for dollar, regardless of age, for the first 180 days after retirement if the member performs activities in the public schools that could be creditable to CalPERS, unless the governing body of the school district takes specified actions with respect to a member who is above normal retirement age.

The Plans' provisions and benefits in effect at June 30, 2016, are summarized as follows:

Funding contributions for both Plans are determined annually on an actuarial basis as of June 30 by Cal PERS. The actuarially deterrrined rate is the estim1ted amount necessary to finance the costs of benefits earned by empl0yees during the fiscal year, with an additional amount to finance any unfunded accrued liability. The Local G 0/ernment is required to contribute the difference between the actuarially deterrri ned rate of empl0yees.

The underlying mortality assurrptions and all other actuarial assurrptions used in theJ une 30, 2013 valuation were based on the results of January 2014 actuarial experience study forthe period 1997 to 2011. Further details of the Experience Study can be found on the Cal PERS website

Changes of Assurrptions - GAS B No 68, paragraph 68 states that the long term expected rate of return should be determined net of pension plan irNestment expense, but without reduction for pension plan adrrinistrative expenses. The discount rate was change from 7.50!6 (net of administrative expenses in 2014) to 7.65% as of June 30, 2015 to correct the adjustment which previously reduced the discount rate for adrri nistrative expenses.

Discount Rate - The discount rate used to measure the total pension liability was 7.65 percent. To determine whether the municipal bond rate should be used in the calculation of the discount rate for public agency plans (including PERF C), Cal PERS stress tested plans that would most likely result in a discount rate that would be different from the actuarially assumed discount rate. Base on the testing the plans, the tests ra,ealed the assets would not run out. Therefore, the current 7.65 percent is applied to all plans in the Public Empl0yees Retirement Fund, including PERF C. The stress test results are presented in a detailed report called "GAS B CrossCNer Testing Report" that can be obtained at Cal PERS' website underthe GASB No68section.

Cal PERS is scheduled to ra,iew all actuarial assumptions as part of its regular Asset Liability Management (ALM) review cycle that is scheduled to be completed February 2018. Any changes to the discount rate will require Board action and proper stockholder outreach. For these reasons, CalPERS expects to continue using a discount rate net of administrative expenses for GAS B 67 and 68 calculations through at least the 2017-18 fiscal years. Cal PE RS wi II continue to check the m1terial ity of the difference in calculation unti I such ti me as we have changed our methodology.

The long-term expected rate of return on pension plan investments was determined using a building-block method in which best-estim1ted ranges of expected future real rates of return (expected returns, net of pension plan investment expense and inflation) are developed for each m1jor asset class.

In determining the long-term expected rate of return, Cal PERS took into account both short-term and long-term m1rket return expectation's as well as the expected pension fund cash flo.vs. Using historical returns of all the funds' asset classes, expected compound returns were calculated CNer the short-term (first 10 years) and the long-term (11-60 years) using a bui I ding-block approach. Using the expected norri nal returns for both short-term and I ong-term, the present value of benefits was calculated for each fund. The expected rate of return was set 0y calculating the single equivalent expected return that arrived at the same present value of benefits for cash flo.vs as the one calculated using both short-term and long-term returns. The expected rate of return was then set equivalent to the single equivalent rate calculated abCNe and rounded do.vn to the nearest one quarter of one percent.

The table belo.v reflects the long-term expected real rate of return 0y asset class. The rate of return was calculated using the capital m1rket assurrptions applied to determine the discount rate and asset allocation. These rates are net of adrrinistrative expenses.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORT! NG AND ON COMPLIANCE AND OTHER MATTERS BASED ON AN AUDIT OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PERFORMED IN ACCORDANCE WITH GOVERNMENT AUDITING STANDARDS

Board of Trustees Garvey School District Rosemead, California

We have audited, in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in the U nited States of America and the standards appl icabletofi nancial audits contained in G cwernmentAuditi ngStandards issued 0y the Conµ:rollerG eneral of the United States, the financial statements of the go,;ernmental activities, each rrajor fund, and the aggregate rerraining fund inforrration of the Garvey School District (the "District"), as of and forthe fiscal year endedJ une 30, 2016, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the District's basic financial statements, and have issued our report thereon dated December 12, 2016.

Internal Control ewer Financial Reporting

In planning and perforrring our audit of the financial statements, we considered the District's internal control o,;er financial reporting (internal control) to deterrrine the audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances for the purpose of expressing our opinions on the financial statements, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the District's internal control. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the District's internal control.

A deficiency in internal control exists when the design or operation of a control does not all cw rranagement or empl0yees, in the norrral course of perf orrri ng their assigned functions, to pra-ent, or detect and correct, rri sstatements on a timely basis. A rraterial weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control such that there is a reasonable possibility that a rraterial rrisstatement of the entity's financial statements will not be pra-ented, or detected and corrected on a timely basis. A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control that is less sa-ere than a rraterial weakness, yeti mportant enough to merit attention Dy those charged with go,;ernance.

Our consideration of internal control was for the Ii rrited purpose described in the first paragraph of this section and was not designed to identify all defi ci enci es in internal control o,;er financial reporting that rri ght be rraterial weaknesses or significant deficiencies. Given these I irritations, during our audit, we did not identify any deficiencies in internal control o,;er financial reportingthatwe consider to be rraterial weaknesses. Hcwa-er, rraterial weaknesses rray existthat have not been identified. We did identify certain deficiencies in internal control, described in the accompanying schedule offindingsand questioned costs, as items 2016-1 and 2016-3 that we considerto be significant deficiencies.

Hcwa-er, prCNiding an opinion on compliance with those prCNisions was not an objective of our audit, and accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. The results of our tests disclosed no instances of noncompliance or other rratters that are required to be reported under GCNernmentAuditing Standards. The District's Response to Finding

The District's response to the finding identified in our audit is described in the accomparryi ng schedule of findings and questioned costs. The District's response was not subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the financial statements and, accordingly, we express no opinion on it.

Section 11 - Financial Statement Findings

FINDING 2016-1 INTERNAL CONTROLS 30000

Condition: During our search for unrecorded I iabi I iti es, we noted numerous exceptions in which invoices relating to goods received or services performed priortotheyearend date were not recorded as payables in the proper period. Proper cutoffs are critical for the accuracy of the accrual basis of accounting.

Effect: Incorrect liabilities accruals present the risk of inaccurate account balances.

Cause: A lack of yearend closing policy can be attributed to payable being entered in the improper period.

Recommendation: We recommend that the Department Head prepare written instructions to be included as a part of the District accounting policies and a procedures rranual that indicates basic concepts of proper cutoffs and the individuals responsible for accruing payables at the accounting period year end.

LEA'sCorrectiveAction Plan: Fiscal Services Department Head will rrake sure that all liabilities are recorded in the proper fiscal year as required in the Modified Accrual Basis of Accountingwhich establishes that all expenditures must be recognized when a liability is incurred. Fi seal Services Department Head wi II prepare written process and procedures that reflect effective steps to foll cw the basic concepts of accruing I iabi I iti es with rraj or emphasis at year end accounting period.

FINDING 2016--2 INTERNAL CONTROLS 30000

Condition: Our audit procedures disclosed that when vendors' invoices are received, the rrailroom clerk routes them directly to the accounts payable deJRrtment, unless the invoice is rrarked to the attention of an individual, in which case the invoice is sent to that person. This creates a gap in the length oftime between receipt of and the recording of invoices and thus JE.ymentof invoices. I naddition, we also noted the location of the original invoices inthevoucher system is not always kncwn. Because of certain system requirementand, oftentimes, the needtoinvestigateaspectsof the invoices, the original invoice is frequently reITTNed from the voucher system A great deal of ti me is spent attempting to I ocate these documents when the,, are needed.

Effect: Without proper control of the invoices presentthe risk of inaccurate account balances and JE.yments not being rradeontime.

Cause: Lack of accounts payable process can be attributed to vendor invoices being delayed in the flew of JE.yment process.

Recommendation: We recommend that District should establish a procedure to track and rraintain the original invoices as well as prCNide a specified location for storage and all invoices be routed directly to the accounts JE.yable deJRrtmentwith subsequent routing of a cor,,, of the invoice to individuals if noted on the appropriate invoices.

LEA'sCorrectiveAction Plan: The District has initiated a procedure that emphasizes efficient communication with the Mai Iroom CI erk to rrake sure that all vendor's invoices are given to the Accounts Payable Desk including those that are addressed to specific district's staff. The Account Payable Technician wi 11 then assure prompt and timely payment to vendors keeping a successful tracking system for all payments vouchers and backup documentation.

Condition: Our audit procedures disclosed that the District's cafeteria clearing bank account deposits were not rerritted to the Los Angel es County Treasury in a timely manner.

Effect: Clearing bank account's deposits that are not transfer in a timely manner present the risk of inaccurate ra-enue account balances.

Cause: A lack of policy and a vacancy in the accountant position can be attributed to the untimely transfer.

Recommendation: We recommend the Districtto implement policies and procedures to ensure the deposits withheld in bank clearing account are rerritted to the Los Angeles County Treasury in a timely manner.

LEA'sCorrectiveAction Plan: The District is establishing a procedure that includes a comprehensive process to ensure that cash deposits are sent to the Los Angel es County DeJE.rtment of Education from the bank clearing account in a timely manner.

Non-discretionary Participants 91.49% Discretionary Participants: Independent Public Agencies 7.72% County Bond Proceeds and Repayment Funds 0.79%

Total 100.0CJ'/o

Decisions on the investment of funds in the Treasury Pool are made by the County Investment Officer in accordance with established policy, with certain transactions requiring the Treasurer's prior approval. In Los Angeles County, investment decisions are governed by Chapter 4 (commencing with Section 53600) of Part 1 of Division 2 of Title 5 of the California Government Code, which governs legal investments by local agencies in the State of California, and by a more restrictive Investment Policy developed by the Treasurer and adopted by the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors on an annual basis. The Investment Policy adopted on March 29, 2016, reaffinned the following criteria and order of priority for selecting investments:

1. Safety of Principal 2. Liquidity 3. Return on Investment

The Treasurer prepares a monthly Report of Investments (the Investment Report) summarizing the status of the Treasury Pool, including the current market value of all investments. This report is submitted monthly to the Board of Supervisors. According to the Investment Report dated March 31, 2017, the February 28, 2017 book value of the Treasury Pool was approximately $28.549 billion and the corresponding market value was approximately $28.359 billion.

An internal controls system for monitoring cash accounting and investment practices is in place. The Treasurer's Compliance Auditor, who operates independently from the Investment Officer, reconciles cash and investments to fund balances daily. The Compliance Auditor's staff also reviews each investment trade for accuracy and compliance with the Board adopted Investment Policy. On a quarterly basis, the County's outside independent auditor (External Auditor) reviews the cash and investment reconciliations for completeness and accuracy. Additionally, the External Auditor reviews investment transactions on a quarterly basis for conformance with the approved Investment Policy and annually accounts for all investments.

The following table identifies the types of securities held by the Treasury Pool as of February 28, 2017:

Type of Investment % of Pool
