The City covenants to levy this tax each year until all the Bonds are paid. This tax shall be in addition to all other taxes of the City, and this tax shall not be limited in rate, amount or otherwise, by Sections 11 or 11b of Article XI of the Oregon Constitution. The Bonds do not constitute a debt or obligation of Washington County, the State of Oregon or any political subdivision thereof other than the City.

PAYING AGENT, REGISTRATION The Bonds will be registered and payable upon presentation at the principal corporate trust office of the Paying Agent, in Seattle, Washington. TRANSFER OF THE BONDS While the Bonds are in book-entry only form, Beneficial Owners may transfer the bonds only through DTC. If the Bonds cease to be in book-entry only form, the Bonds may be transferred upon the books of the Paying Agent as provided in the Bond Declarations. 2 USE OF PROCEEDS Series 2011A Bonds The proceeds of the sale of the Series 2011A Bonds will be used to acquire open spaces, protect clean water and improve parklands as described in City Measure #34-181 approved by the voters on November 2, 2010, and to pay the costs of issuance of the 2011A Bonds. The City expects to use the 2011A Bond proceeds to fund land acquisition, restoration, capital construction and improvements; including land acquisition to preserve open space, parklands, and wildlife habitat, and protect streams for improved local water quality; and creation and improvement of community parks, recreational areas and trails. At least 80 percent of bond proceeds will go toward land acquisition for open spaces, parks or trail corridors. Up to 20 percent of bond proceeds will go toward improvements and development of park land. Up to $1.7 million may be spent for a downtown area park acquisition and development. Series 2011B Bonds The proceeds of the sale of the Series 2011B Bonds will be used to refinance the outstanding Series 2002 Bonds for debt service savings and to pay the costs of issuance of the Series 2011B Bonds. On the Date of Delivery of the 2011B Bonds, the City will send funds to the Oregon Business Development Department to prepay the outstanding Series 2002 Bonds, along with a premium on February 15, 2010.

On November 9, 2010, the Tigard City Council adopted the Water Finance Plan. This plan is the basis for funding the City’s portion of the joint project.

6 PROPERTY TAX INFORMATION
Most local governments, school districts, education services districts and community college districts (“local governments”) have permanent authority to levy property taxes for operations (“Permanent Rates”) up to a maximum rate (the “Operating Tax Rate Limit”). Local governments that have never levied property taxes may request that voters approve a new Operating Tax Rate Limit. Local governments with operating tax rates may not increase the Operating Tax Rate Limits; rather they may request only that voters approve limited term levies for operations or capital expenditures (“Local Option Levies”) or levies to repay general obligation bonded indebtedness (“General Obligation Bond Levies”). The City’s Operating Tax Rate is Limit is $2.5131 per $1,000 of assessed property value. Local Option Levies that fund operating expenses are limited to five years, and Local Option Levies that are dedicated to capital expenditures are limited to ten years. The City currently does not have any Local Option Levies. Local governments impose property taxes by certifying their levies to the county assessor of the county in which the local government is located. Property taxes ordinarily can only be levied once each Fiscal Year, which is July 1 through June 30. The local government ordinarily must notify the county assessor of its levies by July 15. Valuation of Property – Real Market Value. “Real Market Value” is the minimum amount in cash which could reasonably be expected by an informed seller acting without compulsion, from an informed buyer acting without compulsion, in an “arms- length” transaction during the period for which the property is taxed. Property subject to taxation includes all privately owned real property (land, buildings and improvements) and personal property (machinery, office furniture and equipment) for non-residential taxpayers. There is no property tax on household furnishings, personal belongings, automobiles, crops, orchards, business inventories or intangible property such as stocks, bonds or bank accounts, except for centrally assessed utilities, for which intangible personal property is subject to taxation. Property used for charitable, religious, fraternal and governmental purposes is exempt from taxation. Special assessments that provide a reduction in the taxable Real Market Value may be granted (upon application) for veterans’ homesteads, farm and forest land, open space and historic buildings. The Real Market Value of specially assessed properties is often called the “Taxable Real Market Value” or “Measure 5 Real Market Value.” The assessment roll, a listing of all taxable property, is prepared as of January 1 of each year. Valuation of Property – Assessment. Property taxes are imposed on the assessed value of property. The assessed value of each parcel cannot exceed its Taxable Real Market Value, and ordinarily is less than its Taxable Real Market Value. The assessed value of property was initially established in 1997 as a result of a constitutional amendment. That amendment (now Article XI, Section 11, often called “Measure 50”) assigned each property a value and limited increases in that assessed value to three percent per year, unless the property is improved, rezoned, subdivided, or ceases to qualify for exemption. When property is newly constructed or reassessed because it is improved, rezoned, subdivided, or ceases to qualify for exemption, it is assigned an assessed value that is comparable to the assessed value of similar property. The Oregon Department of Revenue (“ODR”) appraises and establishes values for utility property, forestland and most large industrial property for county tax rolls. It collects taxes on harvested timber for distribution to schools, county taxing districts, and State programs related to timber. Certain properties, such as utilities, are valued on the unitary valuation approach. Under the unitary valuation approach, the taxpaying entity’s operating system is defined and a value is assigned for the operating unit using the market value approach (cost, market value and income appraisals). Values are then allocated to the entities’ operations in Oregon, and then to each county the entity operates in and finally to site locations. Generally speaking, industrial properties are valued using an income approach, but ODR may apply additions or retirements of the property value through a cost of materials approach. Under the income and cost of materials approaches, property values fluctuate from year-to-year. Tax Rate Limitation – Measure 5. A tax rate limitation was established in 1990 as a result of a constitutional amendment. That amendment (now Article XI, Section 11b, often called “Measure 5”) separates property taxes into two categories: one to fund the public school system (kindergarten through grade twelve school districts, education service districts and community college districts, collectively “Education Taxes”) and one to fund government operations other than the public school system (“General Government Taxes”). Education Taxes are limited to $5 per $1,000 and General Government Taxes are limited to $10 per $1,000 of the Taxable Real Market Value of property (the “Measure 5 Limits”). If the taxes on a property exceed the Measure 5 Limit for Education or General Government, then tax rates are compressed to the Measure 5 Limit. Local Option Levy compress to zero before there is any compression of Permanent Rates.
7 Taxes imposed to pay the principal and interest on the following bonded indebtedness are not subject to Measure 5 Limit: (1) bonded indebtedness authorized by a specific provision of the State Constitution; and (2) general obligation bonds that are approved by the voters and issued to pay for costs of capital construction or improvements; and (3) general obligation bonds issued to refund previously issued general obligation bonds. The Bonds are exempt from Measure 5 limits. In 2007, the Oregon Supreme Court determined that taxes levied by general purpose governments (such as cities and counties) may be subject to the $5 per $1,000 limit if those taxes are used for educational services provided by public schools. For the 2010-11 tax year there was no compression of the City’s tax levy. Property Tax Collections. The County Assessor is required to deliver the tax roll to the County Tax Collector in sufficient time to mail tax statements on or before October 25 each year. All tax levy revenues collected by the County for all taxing units within the County are required to be placed in an unsegregated pool, and each taxing unit shares in the pool in the same proportion as its levy bears to the total of all taxes levied by all taxing units within the County. As a result, the tax collection record of each taxing unit is a pro-rata share of the total tax collection record of all taxing units within the County combined. Under the partial payment schedule, taxes are payable in three equal installments on the 15th of November, February and May of the same Fiscal Year. The method of giving notice of taxes due, the county treasurer’s account for the money collected, the division of the taxes among the various taxing districts, notices of delinquency, and collection procedures are all specified by detailed statutes. The lien for property taxes is prior to all other liens or encumbrances of any kind on real or personal property subject to taxation. By law, the County may not commence foreclosure of a tax lien on real property until three years have passed since the first delinquency. A Senior Citizen Property Tax Deferral Program (1963) allows certain homeowners to defer taxes until death or sale of the home. A similar program is offered for Disability Tax Deferral (2001), which does not have an age limitation. STRATEGIC INVESTMENTS PROGRAM The Strategic Investment Program (“SIP”) was authorized by the Oregon Legislature in 1993 to provide tax incentives for capital intensive investments by firms in Oregon’s key industries, particularly in the high technology and metals industries. SIP recipients receive a tax break on the assessed value of new construction over $100 million for 15 years. The $100 million cap on assessed value increases by 3 percent per year. SIP recipients pay an annual Community Service Fee which is equal to one- fourth of the value of the tax break and which is allocated to local governments. The Community Service Fee is not considered a property tax and thus is outside of the constitutional property tax rate limitations. There are no SIP recipients in the City.

1. The 2010-11 Assessed Value to compute the tax rate of Tax Code Area 23.74 in Washington County is $2,868,506,076 which is 57.0 percent of the Assessed Value of the City. 2. Tax rates for operations include two local option levies. The first is a 5-year local option levy for public safety services with a rate of $0.42 per $1,000 assessed value and runs through June 2016. An additional local option levy for library service was also renewed in the November 2, 2010 election that levies $0.17 per $1,000 of assessed value. The library services levy also runs through June 2016. 3. $2.5000 per thousand dollars of assessed value is an effective rate, calculated on the total assessed value of property inside the City. The permanent tax rate for the City is $2.5131 and the City levies that rate each year on the assessed value of all property inside the City that is subject to taxation by the City. Part of the total assessed value of the City is “incremental value” of urban renewal districts, and is not subject to taxation by the City. The effective rate is lower than the permanent tax rate, reflecting the inability of the City to tax the incremental value of property within urban renewal districts.

PARK SYSTEM MASTER PLAN To plan for the City’s parks system, the City inventoried existing facilities, underwent a year-long public involvement process, summarized a needs analysis for Tigard Parks, and developed a planning and implementation framework. This culminated in the adoption of the Tigard Park System Master Plan Update (TPSMP) in July 2009. The TPSMP identifies $80 million in capital improvement projects, with over $20 million of priority-one projects listed. Open space land acquisitions were identified as opportunistic acquisitions. The City expects to pay for these projects from a combination of sources including the Series 2011A Bond proceeds and $2.5 million in Parks system development charges. The City has agreements in place to purchase one five-acre site for needed development adjacent to a recently- purchased 43- acre community park site and one 20-acre site for development as a community park. Over the next year, the Park and Recreation Advisory Board expects to identify and recommend additional properties to purchase and develop.
FINANCIAL INFORMATION
BASIS OF ACCOUNTING
The governmental fund types are maintained on the modified accrual basis of accounting. The proprietary and fiduciary fund types are accounted for using the accrual basis of accounting. The City's accounting practices conform to generally accepted accounting principles. FISCAL YEAR
July 1 to June 30 AUDITS
The Oregon Municipal Audit Law (ORS 297.405 - 297.555) requires an audit and examination to be made of the accounts and financial affairs of every municipal corporation at least once a year. Unless the municipality elects to have the audit performed by the State Division of Audits, the audit shall be made by accountants whose names are included on the roster prepared by the State Board of Accountancy. The City's audits for fiscal years ended June 30, 2006 through 2010 were performed by Grove, Mueller & Swank, P.C., Salem, Oregon. The auditors did not review this Official Statement and offer no opinion regarding this Official Statement. A copy of the City's comprehensive annual financial statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010, is provided in APPENDIX B. BUDGETING PROCESS
The City prepares an annual budget in accordance with provisions of the Oregon Local Budget Law (ORS 294), which provides standard procedures for the preparation, presentation, administration and appraisal of budgets. Staff begins preparing the annual budget several months prior to adoption. From December through March, staff completes a five year forecast of all revenues, expenditures and fund balances. The forecast takes the budget and known future changes in fees, technology, laws, and impact of capital construction on operating costs. The forecast does not assume future decisions in staffing levels or proposed programs. By producing a forecast on known items, it allows the City to see the size of decisions that need to be made. The City Manager reviews the forecasts for all funds and determines which future expenditures must be postponed or eliminated to ensure a stable, financial future, but still provide the necessary resources to continue to provide current services at the same level of service in the future and accomplish City goals. Budget parameters and guidelines for the coming fiscal year are set in relation to the finalized five year forecast. Guidelines can include the number of additional or reduced staffing allowed in the budget requests, changes in programs or equipment replacement. In January, department staff prepares their requested budgets while at the same time the City Council sets its goals for the coming year. These goals and the necessary resources to accomplish them are included in the budget requests and may require adjustments to the forecast and budget guidelines. After departments submit their requested budget, Finance staff reviews the requests and meets with the departments to discuss the requests and obtain additional information to assist with their analysis. In February and March, Finance staff finalizes their budget analyses and meets with the City Manager and Department Directors to review the requests. The City Manager makes decisions on the requested budgets, which are then incorporated into the Proposed budget.
14 In April and May, the City Manager presents the Proposed Budget to the Budget Committee. The Budget Committee, in accordance with Oregon Budget Law, is made up of the City Council and an equal number of citizen members. In Tigard’s case, the Budget Committee is the Mayor, four Council Members, and five citizens. All budget meetings are open to the public and are required to be advertised as such. At each budget meeting, time for public comment and input is provided. After all input has been received, the Budget Committee approves the budget with any changes and forwards it to the City Council for adoption. In June, the City Council holds a final public hearing to allow for additional public comment. After the public hearing, the Approved Budget is adopted by City Council resolution. The Adopted Budget takes effect on July 1. According to Oregon Budget Law, a budget must be adopted prior to July 1. Supplemental budgets may be prepared as needed during the fiscal year, utilizing transfers between the appropriation categories which are approved by the City Council. Supplemental budgets are considered and adopted by a process similar to that used for the regular budget, including public hearings and notices of hearings. A budget is prepared for each fund, except for the Pension Trust Fund, essentially in accordance with the modified accrual basis of accounting used by governmental funds, which is in accordance with the legal requirements of Oregon Local Budget Law. The resolution authorizing appropriations sets the maximum level of expenditures for each fund. Appropriations may not be legally over expended. Appropriations lapse at the end of each fiscal year. Appropriations are made at the major program level for each fund, for example, Community Services, Public Works, Community Development, Policy and Administration, Debt Service, Capital Improvements and Contingency. The detail budget document is required to contain more detailed information for the above-mentioned expenditure categories. Budget amounts include original approved amounts and all subsequent appropriation transfers approved by the City Council. After budget approval, the City Council may approve supplemental budgeted appropriations if an occurrence, condition, or need exists which had not been ascertained at the time the budget was adopted. A supplemental budget may require hearings before the public, publications in newspapers and approval by the City Council. Original and supplemental budgets may be modified by the use of appropriations transfers between the levels of control. Such transfers require approval by the City Council. Management may not amend the budget without Council approval. The budgets for each of the funds include capital outlay appropriations. Debt service is also budgeted separately. For GAAP presentation, the transfers from operating funds for services provided by the internal service funds and the General Fund are considered revenues and expenses/expenditures, as appropriate, but are considered to be interfund transfers for budgetary purposes. The City’s policy is to maintain an unallocated fund balance in the General Fund of at least two months of operating expenses and to have adequate fund balance to provide sufficient cashflow from July 1 until property taxes are received in November. City revenues were flat during the last two years after significant growth in the prior five years. Due to the City’s conservative approach to financial operations, the City’s General Fund ending balance grew from $7.9 million at end of FY 2003 to $10.8 million at end of FY 2008. In the last two years, the City has purposely used fund balance to help reduce cuts to City services. In FY 2010 the City determined that it could not maintain existing levels of City services as expenditures were increasing faster than revenues. In order to bring expenditures in line with revenues, the City made targeted cuts in personnel and materials and services. As the City prepares the budget for FY 2012, it expects that service levels will be balanced against available resources.

19 CASH AND INVESTMENTS ORS 294.035 permits Oregon local governments like the City to invest “surplus funds” (defined as all funds that are not pension funds and that are not required for immediate expenditures) in the following: general obligations of the United States and agencies and instrumentalities of the United States; debt obligations of the agencies and instrumentalities of the state and its political subdivisions that have a long-term rating of A by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization; debt obligations of the states of California, Idaho and Washington and political subdivisions of those states if the obligations have a long-term rating of AA; time deposit open accounts, certificates of deposit and savings accounts in insured institutions as defined in Oregon statutes, credit unions as defined in Oregon statutes or in federal credit unions, if the institution or credit union maintains a head office or a branch in Oregon; share accounts and savings accounts in credit unions; fixed or variable life insurance or annuity contracts as defined in Oregon statutes and guaranteed investment contracts issued by life insurance companies authorized to do business in Oregon; banker’s acceptances; corporate indebtedness rated on the settlement date, with certain exceptions, P-1 or Aa or better by Moody’s Investor’s Service or A-1 or AA or better by Standard and Poor’s Corporation or equivalent rating by any nationally recognized statistical rating organization; and repurchase agreements collateralized by general obligations of the United States, agencies and instrumentalities of the United States or enterprises sponsored by the United States. ORS Chapter 295 limits the deposit of public funds to depositories approved by Oregon law. It also requires depositories to collateralize the public funds deposited with those depositories and provides guidelines for the amount of funds that can be deposited with any depository bank. Oregon law also requires local governments like the City to adopt an investment policy before investing in securities that mature in more than 18 months. The City’s investment policy was adopted in January 2002. The City in the past has used Oregon State Treasurer’s Investment Pool (the “the LGIP”) for investment purposes for the largest portion of its funds because of the liquidity and diversification the pool allows. Smaller proportions of funds were invested with brokers and banks. The City is currently exploring the possibility of testing the placing of parcels of liquid funds to be managed by outside brokers and overseen by the City. Such an arrangement would require that any broker involved would have to certify knowledge of and adherence to State law and the City’s investment policy. As of December 31, 2010, the City’s investments consisted of the following: Money Market Funds $ 5,782,305 LGIP– Tigard Transportation Bond 7,258,323 LGIP – Misc Government Revenues 15,167,393 U.S. Government Securities and Corporate Bonds 17,177,225 Total $45,385,247*

20 INSURANCE AND RISK The City is exposed to various risks of loss related to torts; theft of, damage to, and destruction of assets; errors and omissions; injuries to employees and others; and natural disasters. The City purchases commercial insurance to deal with substantially all these risks with normal deductibles. Settled claims resulting from these risks have not exceeded commercial insurance coverage in any of the past three fiscal years. Insurance

LITIGATION RELATED TO TORT CLAIMS AGAINST OREGON GOVERNMENTS In response to a decision by the Oregon Supreme Court in Clarke v. Oregon Health Sciences University (“OHSU”), related to the constitutionality of portions of the Oregon Tort Claims Act (“OTCA”), the 2009 Legislative Assembly enacted Oregon Laws 2009, chapter 67 (“OR Laws 2009, Ch 67”). This law increased the liability limits for Oregon public bodies under the OTCA, as described below. The State is subject to different limits. Personal Injury and Death Claim. The liability of a local public body and its officers, employees and agents acting within the scope of their employment or duties, to any single claimant for covered personal injury or death claims (and not property claims) arising out of a single accident or occurrence may not exceed $500,000, for causes of action arising on or after July 1, 2009, and before July 1, 2010. From July 1, 2010, through June 30, 2015, this cap increases incrementally to $666,700. The liability limits to all claimants for covered personal injury or death claims (and not property claims) arising from a single accident or occurrence increase from $1 million, for causes of action arising on or after July 1, 2009, and before July 1, 2010, incrementally to $1,333,300, for causes of action arising on or after July 1, 2014, and before July 1, 2015. For causes of action arising on or after July 1, 2015, the liability limits for both a single claimant and all claimants will be adjusted based on a determination by a State Court Administrator of the percentage increase or decrease in the cost of living for
21 the previous calendar year as provided in the formula in OR Laws 2009, Ch 67. The adjustment may not exceed 3 percent for any year. Property Damage or Destruction Claim. The liability of a public body and its officers, employees and agents acting within the scope of their employment or duties, for covered claims for damage and destruction of property that arise from causes of action arising on or after July 1, 2009, are as follows: (a) $100,000, adjusted as described below, to any single claimant, and (b) $500,000, adjusted as described below, to all claimants. Beginning in 2010, these liability limits shall be adjusted based on a determination by a State Court Administrator of the percentage increase or decrease in the cost of living for the previous calendar year as provided in the formula in OR Laws 2009, Ch 67. The adjustment may not exceed 3 percent for any year. RETIREMENT PLAN- ICMARC PLANS The majority of City employees participate in the International City Managers Association Retirement Corp. (ICMRAC) Money Purchase Plans. The City contributes to defined contribution, single employer retirement plans at a specified percent of gross salary depending on the employment group, for all employees who participate in the ICMRAC Money Purchase Plan. Contributions are calculated as a percentage of gross payroll. The contributions range from 10 to 11 percent for all eligible employees participating in the plans. Employees do not make contributions to these plans. The City is required to make contributions to these plans under authority of City Council resolution and the plan documents. Employees become eligible to participate in the plans after six months of service and vest immediately. Employees may withdraw funds upon retirement or termination of employment. Contributions to the plans are made to a fiduciary. Since the plans are administered by the City, the assets, equity and operations of the plans are accounted for in the General Employees Pension Plan Fund, a pension trust fund. The plans invest in various money market and equity mutual funds. Required and actual contributions to the plan were $1,393,091 for the year ended June 30, 2009. At June 30, 2010, the City had 206 employees in the IMARC Plans. Because these are defined contribution plans, there is no unfunded liability associated with these plans. POLICE PENSION PLAN General. The City participates in a retirement pension benefit program under the State of Oregon Public Employees Retirement System ("PERS" or the "System"). Substantially all full-time police employees are participants in PERS. At June 30, 2010, the City had 72 employees in PERS. T1/T2 Pension Programs. Employees hired before August 29, 2003 participate in the "Tier 1" and "Tier 2" pension programs (the "T1/T2 Pension Programs"). The benefits provided through the T1/T2 Pension Programs are based primarily on a defined benefit pension model and provide retirement and disability benefits, annual cost-of-living adjustments, and death benefits to members and their beneficiaries. Different benefit structures apply to participants depending on their date of hire. Effective January 1, 2004, T1/T2 Pension Program participant contributions fund individual retirement accounts under the separate defined contribution program described below. OPSRP. Employees hired on or after August 29, 2003 participate in the Oregon Public Service Retirement Plan ("OPSRP") unless membership was previously established in the T1/T2 Pension Programs. OPSRP is a hybrid defined contribution defined benefit pension plan with two components. Employer contributions fund the defined benefit program and employee contributions fund individual retirement accounts under the separate defined contribution program. Effective January 1, 2004, T1/T2 Pension Program participant contributions also fund individual retirement accounts under the separate defined contribution program. Actuarial Valuation. Oregon statutes require an actuarial valuation of the System at least once every two years. Based on the biennial actuarial valuations as of December 31 of odd-numbered years, such as 2007 and 2009, the Public Employees Retirement Board ("PERB") establishes the contribution rates that employers will pay to fund the T1/T2 Pension Programs, OPSRP and the PERS-sponsored Retirement Health Insurance Account program ("RHIA") described herein. Actuarial valuations are performed annually as of December 31 of each year, with the valuations as of December 31 of even-numbered years (such as 2008) used for advisory purposes only. Actuarial valuations are performed for the entire System (the “System Valuation”), and for each participating employer, including the City (the “City Valuation”). Valuations are released approximately one year after the valuation date. PER’S current actuary is Mercer (US), Inc. (“Mercer”). Valuation Release Date Rates Effective December 31, 2007 September 2008 July 1, 2009-June 30, 2011 December 31, 2008 October 2009 Advisory only December 31, 2009 September 2010 July 1, 2011-June 30, 2013
22 Employer Assets, Liabilities, and Unfunded Actuarial Liabilities. An employer's unfunded actuarial liability ("UAL") is the excess of the actuarially determined present value of the employer's benefit obligations to employees over the existing actuarially determined assets available to pay those benefits. For the T1/T2 Pension Programs, the City is pooled with the State of Oregon and other local government and community college district public employers (the “State and Local Government Rate Pool” or “SLGRP”). The City’s portion of PERS’ assets and liabilities is based on the City’s proportionate share of the SLGRP’s pooled payroll (“City Allocated T1/T2 UAL”). OPSRP's assets and liabilities are pooled on a program-wide basis. These assets and liabilities are not tracked or calculated on an employer basis. The City's allocated share of OPSRP's assets and liabilities is based on the City's proportionate share of OPSRP's pooled payroll (the “City Allocated OPSRP UAL”). Changes in the City’s relative growth in payroll will cause and other pool participants’ failure to pay their full employer contributions may cause the City Allocated T1/T2 UAL and City Allocated OPSRP UAL to shift. The City’s net unfunded pension UAL is the total of the City’s Allocated T1/T2 UAL, Allocated OPSRP UAL and the City’s side account. The City’s net unfunded pension UAL as of the valuation as of December 31, 2008 (the “2008 City Advisory Valuation”) and the valuation as of December 31, 2009 (the “2009 City Valuation”) is shown in the following table: 2009 Valuation 2008 Valuation Allocated pooled SLGRP T1/T2 UAL $ 7,369,427 $ 8,621,805 Allocated pre-SLGRP pooled liability/(surplus)1 (1,169,248) (1,149,682) Transition liability/(surplus) 2 (3,536,597) (3,597,524) Allocated Pooled OPSRP UAL 57,753 41,302 Net unfunded pension actuarial accrued liability/(surplus) $ 2,721,312 $ 3,915,901
(1) The Allocated pre-SLGRP pooled liability represents the allocation to the City of the liability/surplus that remained when the local government rate pool (LGRP) was disbanded and the SLGRP was created. The City shares this liability/surplus with other former participants in the LGRP, and it is allocated based on the City’s proportionate share of the former participants’ payroll. (2) The transition surplus represents the surplus that was created when the City joined the LGRP. The transition surplus is solely the City’s.
Source: 2008 City Advisory Valuation and 2009 City Valuation The funded status of the PERS and of the City will change over time depending on the market performance of the securities that the Oregon Public Employees’ Retirement Fund is invested, future changes in compensation and benefits of covered employees, demographic characteristics of members and methodologies and assumptions used by the actuary in estimating the assets and liabilities of PERS. Significant actuarial assumptions and methods used in the valuations included: (a) Projected Unit Credit actuarial cost method, (b) asset valuation method based on market value, (c) rate of return on the investment of present and future assets of 8%, (d) payroll growth rate of 3.75%, (e) consumer price inflation of 2.75% per year, and (f) UAL amortization method of a level percentage of payroll over 21 years (fixed) for the T1/T2 Pension Programs and16 years (fixed) for OPSRP. Employer Contribution Rates. Employer contribution rates are calculated as a percent of covered payroll. The rates are based on the current and projected cost of benefits and the anticipated level of funding available from the Oregon Public Employees Retirement Fund ( the “OPERF”) , including anticipated investment performance of the fund. Contribution rates are subject to future adjustment based on factors such as the result of subsequent actuarial valuations and changes in benefits resulting from legislative modifications. Employees are required to contribute 6 percent of their annual salary to the respective programs. Employers are allowed to pay the employees' contribution in addition to the required employers' contribution. The City has elected to make the employee contribution. Employer contribution rate changes from one period to the next are limited by a contribution rate collar. Contribution Rate Collar. In January 2010 the PERS Board adopted a revised implementation of the rate collar limiting increases in employer contribution rates from biennium to biennium (the “Rate Collar”). Under normal conditions, the Rate Collar is the greater of three percent of payroll or 20 percent of the current base rate. If the funded status of independent employers is below 80 percent, the Rate Collar increases by 0.3 percent for every percentage point under the 80 percent funded level until it reaches 6 percent at the 70 percent funded level. The 2009 System Valuation found that independent employers were 82 percent funded, resulting in a Rate Collar of three percent. The Rate Collar limits increases in employer contribution rates before rate reductions from side accounts are deducted, and does not cover charges associated with RHIA and RHIPA. Because the 2011-2013 employer contribution rates were reduced by the Rate Collar, further rate increases are anticipated for the 2013-2015 biennium. Presently, PERS anticipates that system-wide, the 2013-2015 rates will be
23 increased by approximately 5% of covered payroll as a result of the implementation of the Rate Collar in the 2011-2013 biennium. This increase, however, will be subject to change based on the investment performance of OPERF and other factors. The City’s actual 2013-2015 contribution rate increase also may vary from the system-wide number. City Contribution Rates. The City's current contribution rates which are based on the 2007 City Valuation and are effective through June 30, 2011 are 10.66 percent for Tier 1 and Tier 2 members, 3.32 percent for general service OPSRP members and 6.03 percent for OPSRP Police and Fire Employees. Included in these rates are contribution rates for the PERS Retirement Health Insurance Account program for Tier 1 and Tier 2 participants described below. The 2009 City Valuation was released in September 2010. Employer contribution rates for the 2011-2013 biennium for the City are as follows: 15.24 percent for Tier 1 and Tier 2 members, 5.97 percent for general service OPSRP members and 8.68 percent for OPSRP Police and Fire Employees. The estimated annual impact of the PERs rate increases is approximately $330,000. DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLANS The City offers certain employees deferred compensation plans created in accordance with Internal Revenue Code Section 457. The plans permit employees to defer a portion of their salary until future years. Contributions for the plans are made to fiduciaries who hold the funds in trust for the plans' participants. The deferred compensation plans are not considered City funds and are excluded from the City’s financial statements. At June 30, 2010, the City had 157 employees with deferred compensation plans. OTHER POST-EMPLOYMENT BENEFITS GASB 45 requires the City to determine the extent of its liability for post employment benefits (“OPEB”) and record the liability in its financial statements on an actuarial basis. This includes the requirement under ORS 243.303 of offering the same healthcare benefits for current employees to all retirees and their dependents until such time as the retirees are eligible for Medicare. GASB 45 refers to this as an “implicit subsidy” and requires that the corresponding liability be determined and reported. The City received its actuarial report related to GASB 45 prepared by Milliman dated August 3, 2009 that determines the Annual Required Contribution (ARC) and Annual OPEB Cost under GASB 45 for the fiscal years ending June 30, 2009 and 2010. The actuarial report indicates that as of August 1, 2008, the City’s UAL for its non-PERS OPEB is based solely on the implicit subsidy and was approximately $1,725,443. The report projected the annual OPEB cost for fiscal year ending June 30, 2009 would be $325,795 with the City contributing $100,205, resulting in a net OPEB obligation of $225,590 for the fiscal year. For Fiscal Year ending June 30, 2010, the report projected an increase in net OPEB Obligation of $241,593, resulting in total Net OPEB Obligation of $467,183. The City currently pays its non-PERS OPEB on a “pay-as-you-go” basis and currently plans to continue to pay this OPEB on a “pay-as-you-go” basis. Retirement Health Insurance Account. PERS retirees who receive benefits through the T1/T2 Pension Programs and are enrolled in certain PERS administered health insurance programs, may receive a subsidy towards the payment of health insurance premiums. Under ORS 238.420, retirees may receive a subsidy for Medicare supplemental health insurance of up to $60 per month towards the cost of their health insurance premium under the RHIA plan. According to the 2008 System Valuation, this program had a UAL of approximately $310 million and according to the 2009 System Valuation, this program has a UAL of approximately $297 million. The RHIA program’s assets and liabilities are pooled on a system-wide basis and are not tracked or calculated on an employer basis. The City’s allocated share of the RHIA program’s assets and liabilities is based on the City’s proportionate share of the program’s pooled payroll. According to the 2009 City Valuation, the City's allocated share of the RHIA program's UAL is $190,340. According to the 2008 City Advisory Valuation, the City's allocated share of the RHIA program's UAL was $193,340. Based on the 2009 City Valuation, the City’s employer contribution rates to fund RHIA benefits are 0.59% for the T1/T2 Pension Programs and 0.50% for the OSRP Program.

ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT The City has recently updated the Tigard 2027 Comprehensive Plan which includes an Economic Development section. The City is a member of the Association of Regional Economic Development Partners that has prepared a federal Economic Development Administration Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy for the Portland area (Washington, Clackamas, Multnomah and Clark Counties). The City is also a member of the Westside Economic Alliance. Portland MSA and Regional Manufacturing The economy of the Portland MSA is broad and widely diversified, and includes the State’s largest employers, including Intel Inc., Providence Health System, Safeway, Oregon Heath & Sciences University, Fred Meyer, Kaiser Foundation Health Plan, Legacy Health System, and Nike. In November 2010, Intel Inc. announced a new round of investment that is expected to create a total of between 6,000 and 8,000 construction jobs and 800 to 1,000 permanent jobs—primarily in Washington County, Oregon—at its U.S. facilities. The investment will build a new factory/fabrication plant, at Intel's Ronler Acres campus in Hillsboro and upgrade two existing facilities in Oregon. While the company declined to reveal specific cost figures, a new chip factory alone typically costs $3 billion to $3.5 billion. Shopping and Retail Retail sales constitute an important sector of the County's economy. Several major regional shopping centers are located in the City limits, and several other large shopping centers are located in the County. Bridgeport Village built in 2005 and located in both the City and nearby Tualatin offers 0.5 million square feet of retail space, an 18-screen theater, an IMAX theater and leasable office space. Washington Square, also located in the City, a commercial center space of approximately 1.5 million square feet of retail space and 170 stores is one of the largest shopping malls in the Portland metro area and one of the highest grossing malls per square foot in the United States. A major $200 million reconstruction of the open-air mall was completed in Spring 2005. Commercial and Industrial Presently there is over 4.5 million square feet of commercial and industrial space in the City at business parks such as Lincoln Center, Oregon Business Park, Forum Properties Business Centers, Tigard Industrial Center, Commerce Plaza, Sequoia Parkway and Plaza West.
28 Income Personal income includes wages and salaries, other labor-related income (such as employer contributions to pension funds), proprietors' income, rental income, dividends paid by corporations, interest income from all sources, and transfer payments (such as pensions and welfare assistance).

TRANSPORTATION The City is well served by regional rail and highway transportation. Interstate 5, which bisects the City, forms the eastern boundary of the area, providing easy access to the north and the south and Oregon Route 217 are the main freeways in the city, with Oregon Route 99W and Oregon Route 210 serving as other major highways. The southern terminus of the Interstate 205 Beltway, located two miles south of the area, provides easy access to Clackamas County, east Multnomah County, and Clark County, Washington. Boones Ferry Road, a state highway, is also a major arterial in the area. Freight rail service is provided in the area by Burlington Northern Santa Fe and Union Pacific Railroads. The Tri-County Metropolitan Transportation District operates a 12-mile light-rail line, the Westside Express Service from downtown Portland through Washington County to 185th and Baseline and into Hillsboro in Washington County. The light rail also links with PDX International Airport, the Portland Expo Center and Gresham in East Multnomah County. PDX International Airport handled more than 13.3 million passengers in 2009. Thirteen passenger airlines and six cargo airlines currently operate out of the airport. The airport has undergone extensive expansion in recent years. PDX International Airport currently offers nonstop international flights to Vancouver, British Columbia; Toronto, Ontario; Amsterdam, Netherlands; and Tokyo, Japan. The Hillsboro Airport, a general aviation airport also operated by the Port of Portland, is the state's busiest airport in its class. Although there are no scheduled flights in or out of the Hillsboro Airport, it functions as a reliever airport for Portland International Airport, and will support international and corporate jets. The Hillsboro Airport’s two runways are 4,500 feet and 6,600 feet long. Several fixed base operators are located at the airport. The Port of Portland also includes on-call customs clearing services to the Hillsboro Airport. The Port of Portland is a municipal corporation that is coterminous with Multnomah, Clackamas, and Washington counties. The Port owns and operates marine berthing, terminal and repair facilities; docks, piers and storage and warehouse facilities; and other support facilities for incoming and outgoing marine commerce. In addition to seaport functions, Portland serves as the hub to more than 450 miles of inland barge traffic on the Columbia, Lower Snake and Willamette rivers. UTILITIES NW Natural supplies natural gas to the Tualatin area. Telephone service to the area is provided by a variety of communications service providers. Electricity is provided by Portland General Electric Company. PUBLIC FACILITIES Sewer and Water The City owns and maintains the collection system with its boundaries. The City’s sewerage system includes 161 miles of sanitary sewers, 131 miles of storm sewers and 17,900 service connections. Clean Water Services operates and maintains wastewater treatment systems that serve most of the unincorporated areas of Washington County, including those areas not serviced by the respective cities. The City's water system currently receives its supply from the City of Portland water system. The major source of supply is the Bull Run system, owned and operated by the City of Portland. In August 2008, the City entered into partnership with the City of Lake Oswego to share drinking water resources and costs. The partnership expects to invest an estimated $152 million in development of raw water intake, a raw water pipeline, water treatment plant, treated water pipelines, a treated water reservoir and a special water pump station to achieve mutually beneficial water resource goals over the next ten years. The City currently maintains more than 225 miles of water mains, 13 reservoirs and 17,900 water service accounts. Public Safety Fire protection within the City's boundaries is provided by Tualatin Valley Fire and Rescue (“TVFR”). TVFR provides full-time fire protection and a rescue unit with full life supports; the City has a fire insurance rating of 2. The City has its own police department with 93 staff including sworn officers, and full-time and part-time administrative staff. Dispatch services are provided through Washington County Consolidated Communications Agency. Education The City has four separate school districts but is primarily served by Tigard-Tualatin School District No. 23J. Tigard-Tualatin School District No. 23J currently has 12,469 students enrolled in ten elementary schools, three middle schools and two high
30 schools and serves a population of approximately 75,000. Three of the elementary schools, one middle school and one high school are located in Tualatin. The main campus of Portland Community College is located north of Tualatin. Approximately 30,000 students are enrolled each term at this campus. Other post-secondary education facilities in the metropolitan area include the Oregon Health Sciences University, Northwestern School of Law, Portland State University, and numerous private colleges and universities. Health Care Providence Bridgeport Health Center is located in the City and offers an immediate care center, a pharmacy, day surgery, imaging services, diagnostic imaging, rehabilitation, family medical practice, and specialized medical services. Kaiser Permanente operates a 51,000-square-foot medical office nearby in Tualatin which accommodates services for primary care, specialized eye care, mental health, chemical dependency, occupational health, physical and speech therapy. Kaiser operates a dental clinic in the City. Kaiser also began construction on a 126-bed hospital nearby in Hillsboro’s Tanasbourne District in June 2009. The $375 million, 412,00 square-foot project is employing between approximately 2,000 for construction and expected to employ 1,100 in the hospital when complete in 2013. Legacy Meridian Park Hospital serves the health care needs of the community with a 150-bed capacity but only uses 128 of the beds. Hospital facilities now include ten surgery suites and seven post-partum rooms. Located in nearby Tualatin, the hospital is Tualatin’s largest employer with more than 800 employees. The Heritage, an independently operated facility, operates an assisted living center for the elderly on the hospital's 48-acre campus; this facility houses 120 persons. There are many other health care facilities in the county and the metropolitan area. These include public health facilities, hospitals and private clinics. INFORMATION SOURCES Historical data have been collected from generally accepted standard sources, usually from public bodies. In Oregon data is frequently available for counties and also, to a somewhat lesser degree, for cities. Because the City is located within the Portland Primary Metropolitan Statistical Area, this statement presents data for that area, as well as for Washington County and the City when available.
31 LITIGATION
There is no litigation pending questioning the validity of the Bonds nor the power and authority of the City to issue the Bonds. There is no litigation pending which would materially and adversely affect the finances of the City or affect the City's ability to meet debt service requirements on the Bonds.
LEGAL MATTERS
Legal matters incident to the authorization, issuance and sale of the Bonds by the City are subject to the approving opinions of K&L Gates LLP, Portland, Oregon, Bond Counsel to the City. The proposed text of that opinion is set forth in APPENDIX C to this Official Statement. Bond Counsel has reviewed the Official Statement only to confirm that the portions of it describing the Bonds, the Bond Resolution and the authority to issue the Bonds, conform to the Bonds and the applicable laws under which they are issued.
THE INITIATIVE PROCESS
The State Constitution, Article IV, Section 1, reserves to the people of the State the initiative power to amend the State constitution or to enact State legislation by placing measures on the statewide general election ballot for consideration by the voters. Oregon law therefore permits any registered Oregon voter to file a proposed initiative with the Oregon Secretary of State’s office without payment of fees or other burdensome requirements. Consequently, a large number of initiative measures are submitted to the Oregon Secretary of State’s office, and a much smaller number of petitions obtain sufficient signatures to be placed on the ballot. Because many proposed initiative measures are submitted which do not qualify for the ballot, the City does not formally or systematically monitor the impact of those measures or estimate their financial effect prior to the time the measures qualify for the ballot. Consequently, the City does not ordinarily disclose information about proposed initiative measures that have not qualified for the ballot. PROPOSED INITIATIVES THAT QUALIFY TO BE PLACED ON THE BALLOT To be placed on a general election ballot, the proponents of a proposed initiative must submit to the Secretary of State initiative petitions signed by a number of qualified voters equal to a specified percentage of the total number of votes cast for all candidates for governor at the gubernatorial election at which a Governor was elected for a term of four years next preceding the filing of the petition with the Secretary of State. For the 2010 general election, the requirements are eight percent (110,358 signatures) for a constitutional amendment measure and six percent (82,769 signatures) for a statutory initiative. Any elector may sign an initiative petition for any measure on which the elector is entitled to vote. The initiative petition must be submitted to the Secretary of State not less than four months prior to the general election at which the proposed measure is to be voted upon. As a practical matter, proponents of an initiative have approximately two years in which to gather the necessary number of signatures. State law permits persons circulating initiative petitions to pay money to persons obtaining signatures for the petition. If the person obtaining signatures is being paid, the signature sheet must contain a notice of such payment. Once an initiative measure has gathered a sufficient number of signatures and qualified for placement on the ballot, the State is required to prepare a formal estimate of the measure’s financial impact. Typically, this estimate is limited to an evaluation of the direct dollar impact only. Two statewide measures were approved by voters at the November 2010 election. Neither of these statewide measures is expected to have a material and adverse effect on the City. Voters approved Measure 34-181 and the Bonds on the November 2010 ballot. Historically, a larger number of initiative measures have qualified to be placed on the ballot than have been approved by the electors. According to the Elections Division of the Oregon Secretary of State, the total number of initiative petitions that have qualified for the ballot and the numbers that have passed in recent general elections are shown in the following table.

TAX MATTERS
In the opinion of Bond Counsel, interest on the Bonds is excludable from gross income for federal income tax purposes and is not an item of tax preference for purposes of the federal alternative minimum tax imposed on individual and corporations; however, interest on the Bonds is included in adjusted current earnings for the purpose of computing the federal alternative minimum tax imposed on certain corporations. Federal income tax law contains a number of requirements that apply to the Bonds, including investment restrictions, periodic payments of arbitrage profits to the United States, requirements regarding the use of proceeds of the Bonds and the facilities financed with proceeds of the Bonds and certain other matters. The City has covenanted to comply with all applicable requirements. Bond Counsel’s opinion is subject to the condition that the City comply with the above-referenced covenants and, in addition, will rely on representations by the City and its advisors with respect to matters solely within the knowledge of the City and its advisors, respectively, which Bond Counsel has not independently verified. If the City fails to comply with such covenants or if the foregoing representations are determined to be inaccurate or incomplete, interest on the Bonds could be included in gross income for federal income tax purposes retroactively to the date of issuance of the Bonds, regardless of the date on which the event causing taxability occurs. Except as expressly stated in this “Tax Matters” section, Bond Counsel expresses no opinion regarding any other federal income tax consequences of acquiring, carrying, owning or disposing of the Bonds. Owners of the Bonds should consult their tax advisors regarding the applicability of any collateral tax consequences of owning the Bonds, which may include original issue discount, original issue premium, purchase at a market discount or at a premium, taxation upon sale, redemption or other disposition, and various withholding requirements. Prospective purchasers of the Bonds should be aware that ownership of the Bonds may result in collateral federal income tax consequences to certain taxpayers, including, without limitation, financial institutions, property and casualty insurance companies, individual recipients of Social Security or Railroad Retirement benefits, certain S corporations with “excess net passive income,” foreign corporations subject to the branch profits tax, life insurance companies and taxpayers who may be deemed to have incurred or continued indebtedness to purchase or carry or have paid or incurred certain expenses allocable to the Bonds. Bond Counsel expresses no opinion regarding any collateral tax consequences. Prospective purchasers of the Bonds should consult their tax advisors regarding collateral federal income tax consequences. Payments of interest on Tax-Exempt obligations such as the Bonds, are in many cases required to be reported to the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”). Additionally, backup withholding may apply to any such payments made to any owner who is not an “exempt recipient” and who fails to provide certain identifying information. Individuals generally are not exempt recipients, whereas corporations and certain other entities generally are exempt recipients. Bond Counsel’s opinion is not a guarantee of result and is not binding on the IRS; rather, the opinion represents Bond Counsel’s legal judgment based on its review of existing law and in reliance on the representations made to Bond Counsel and the City’s compliance with its covenants. The IRS has established an ongoing program to audit tax-exempt obligations to determine whether interest on such obligations is includable in gross income for federal income tax purposes. Bond Counsel cannot predict
33 whether the IRS will commence an audit of the Bonds. Owners of the Bonds are advised that, if the IRS does audit the Bonds, under current IRS procedures, at least during the early stages of an audit, the IRS will treat the City as the taxpayer, and the owners of the Bonds may have limited rights to participate in the audit. The commencement of an audit could adversely affect the market value and liquidity of the Bonds until the audit is concluded, regardless of the ultimate outcome. Original Issue Premium. The initial public offering price of certain Bonds may be greater than the amount payable on the Bonds at maturity. Bond Counsel expresses no opinion with respect to the treatment of this additional amount. Original Issue Discount. The initial public offering price of certain 2011A Bonds (the "Original Issue Discount Bonds"), may be less than the amount payable at maturity. This difference between (i) the stated amount payable at the maturity of an Original Issue Discount Bond and (ii) the initial public offering price of that Original Issue Discount Bond constitutes original issue discount with respect to that Original Issue Discount Bond in the hands of the owner who purchased that Original Issue Discount Bond at the initial public offering price in the initial public offering of the Bonds. The initial owner is entitled to exclude from gross income (as defined in Section 61 of the Code) an amount of income with respect to an Original Issue Discount Bond equal to that portion of the amount of the original issue discount allocable to the period that such Original Issue Discount Bond continues to be owned by the initial owner. In the event of the redemption, sale or other taxable disposition of an Original Issue Discount Bond prior to its stated maturity, however, the amount realized by the initial owner in excess of the basis of the Original Issue Discount Bond in the hands of its initial owner (adjusted upward by the portion of the original issue discount allocable to the period for which such Bond was held by the initial owner) is includable in gross income. Purchasers of Original Issue Discount Bonds should consult their tax advisors regarding the determination and treatment of original issue discount for federal income tax purposes and the state and local tax consequences of owning Original Issue Discount Bonds. STATE OF OREGON TAX EXEMPTION In the opinion of Bond Counsel, interest on the Bonds is exempt from Oregon personal income taxation under existing law.

There are no assurances that the ratings will continue for any given period of time or that the ratings will not be revised downward or withdrawn entirely by the rating agencies if, in the judgment of the rating agencies, circumstances so warrant. Any such downward revision or withdrawal of the ratings may adversely affect the market price of the Bonds.

Page 3 – Bond Declaration
such participants or correspondents act as agent for the beneficial owner with respect to: (A) the accuracy of the records of DTC, the nominee or any participant or correspondent with respect to any beneficial owner's interest in the Bonds; (B) the delivery to any participant or correspondent or any other person of any notice with respect to the Bonds, including any notice of prepayment; (C) the selection by DTC of the beneficial interest in Bonds to be redeemed prior to maturity; or (D) the payment to any participant, correspondent, or any other person other than the registered owner of the Bonds as shown in the registration books maintained by the Paying Agent, of any amount with respect to principal, any premium or interest on the Bonds. (5) The provisions of this Section 5 may be modified without the consent of the beneficial owners in order to conform this Section 5 to the standard practices of DTC or any successor depository for bonds issued in book-entry only form.

The Bonds maturing on June 1, 2022 and on any date thereafter are subject to redemption at the option of the City prior to their stated maturity at any time on or after June 1, 2021, as a whole or in part, and if in part, with maturities to be selected by the City and by DTC or by lot within a maturity at a price of par, plus accrued interest, if any, to the date of redemption. Mandatory Redemption. If not previously redeemed as described above, the Term Bonds due on June 1, 2028 and June 1, 2031 will be called for redemption (in such manner as the Paying Agent and DTC will determine) at a price of par, plus accrued interest on the date of redemption, on June 1 in the years and amounts as follows: 2028 Term Bonds Due June 1 Amount ($) 2027 1,030,000 2028 1,075,000* *Final maturity 2031 Term Bonds Due June 1 Amount ($) 2029 1,125,000 2030 1,180,000 2031 1,235,000 *Final maturity Optional redemption of the Term Bonds may be credited against mandatory redemption in the manner determined by the City.

Page 3 – Bond Declaration
(A) the accuracy of the records of DTC, the nominee or any participant or correspondent with respect to any beneficial owner's interest in the Bonds;
(B) the delivery to any participant or correspondent or any other person of any notice with respect to the Bonds, including any notice of prepayment;
(C) the selection by DTC of the beneficial interest in Bonds to be redeemed prior to maturity; or
(D) the payment to any participant, correspondent, or any other person other than the registered owner of the Bonds as shown in the registration books maintained by the Paying Agent, of any amount with respect to principal, any premium or interest on the Bonds.

Section 8. Conditional Redemption.
Any notice of optional redemption given for the Bonds pursuant to Section 7 may state that the optional redemption is conditional upon receipt by the Paying Agent of moneys sufficient to pay the redemption price of such Bonds or upon the satisfaction of any other condition, and/or that such notice may be rescinded upon the occurrence of any other event, and any conditional notice so given may be rescinded at any time before payment of such redemption price if any such
