(consent) SUMMARY: The City of Clearwater posted RFP/Q #43-22 as an opportunity for a developer to acquire and develop city-owned property located at 1454 South Martin Luther King Jr. Avenue for use as affordable and workforce housing (Pinellas County Property I.D. #22-29-15-00000-320-1300). On December 1, 2022, Council authorized staff to negotiate a contract for the sale of real property to Habitat for Humanity of Pinellas County, Inc. and Clearwater Neighborhood Housing Services, Inc., together, as the selected Developer of the real property located at 1454 South Martin Luther King Jr. Avenue. On June 13th, 2023, Council approved a contract for sale of city-owned vacant land. The Developer will be assigning the contract to a single asset entity, Lake Belleview Development LLC. Per the contract, the development shall be consistent with Developer’s response to City of Clearwater RFP/Q 43-22. The Developer shall construct 24 units of mixed-income, owner-occupied townhomes with 50% of the units reserved for households with total household income up to 80% of the Area Median Income (AMI) as determined by the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development, and the remaining 50% reserved for household with total household income up to 120% of the AMI. The Developer’s response to RFP 43-22 identified a $1,240,170 cash gap in addition to the requested donation of the property, therefore Exhibit B of the contract specifies the City agrees to commit to the donation of the parcel, valued at $525,000 and a contribution of an additional $357,585 for a total direct subsidy of $882,585 (half of the total direct subsidy identified as required in the response). Due to market changes, the Developer increased their request from Pinellas County to $1,015,028 which was approved. The total development cost is estimated to be $9,577,613.50. Sources of funding include Owner’s Equity ($996,611.73), Penny Funding ($1,015,028), City of Clearwater ($882,585: $357,585 in direct subsidy and land donation valued at $525,000) and permanent debt financing ($6,683,388.77). Additional requirements provided by Exhibit B establishes terms and conditions that the Developer must meet prior to and after closing. Per the exhibit, all pre-development activities must be completed prior to closing including, but not limited to, funding commitments, site approval, and building permits. Unforeseen development challenges had pushed the original proposed timeline and required a contract closing date extension to December 31st, 2024. Due to Hurricane Helene and Hurricane Milton, the Developer had not procured funding approval from Pinellas County, which is a requirement for closing. The closing date was then extended to on or before April 30, 2025. The funding request for the project was reviewed and approved by the Pinellas County Board of County Commissioners in February 2025. The Developer has requested an extension to on or before July 31, 2025, to obtain permits, obtain commercial loan approval, and finalize closing documentation. Staff recommends an extension of the closing date to on or before July 31, 2025, to allow the Developer more time to complete the pre-development activities.

Page 2 City of Clearwater Printed on 4/8/2025 RFN/Q #43-22 Development of 1456 S Martin Luther King Avenue Table of Contents Tab 1 - Narrative & Vision Statement Tab 2 - Developer Experience and Qualifications Tab 3 - Legal & Financial Feasibility Tab 4 - Development Concept Tab 5 - Proposed Timeline Tab 6 - Other Forms Tab 7 - Attachments Habitat for Humanity of Pinellas and West Pasco Counties (Habitat) and Tampa Bay Neighborhood Home Services (TBNHS), formerly known as Clearwater Neighborhood Housing Services, propose to jointly develop the parcel located at 1454 S Martin Luther King Jr. Avenue into twenty-four (24) townhome units exclusive for homeownership. The development will be named Lake Belleview Townhomes. 50% of the units (12 units) will be reserved for income-qualified homeowners making less than 80% of the area median income, with the other 50% of units (12 units) reserved for income-qualified homeowners for incomes up to 120% of the area median income. This development creates an opportunity for Habitat and TBNHS to collaborate on a shared interest in providing affordable housing options for residents with a mix of income ranges. Lake Belleview Townhomes would provide a choice in housing options for first-time homebuyers who may not be able to afford single-family homes but want to live in a safe, stable community that offers an opportunity for homeownership. The conceptual unit designs within the site plan will be two-story townhomes with a bottom floor garage and a secondary parking pad to minimize on- street parking. Townhomes will consist of 1,800 square feet under roof and 1,460 square feet of conditioned space. Each unit will be three bedrooms with 2 and a half bathrooms, and a laundry/storage room, subject to final design approval. Building elevations will include sufficient architectural elements to create visual interest and break up building massing. Proposed treatments include elements such as covered porches, various façade materials, compatible color variations, decorative columns/trim, and a rear patio. The development will also incorporate Florida- friendly landscaping that requires less irrigation. Lastly, a homeowner’s association will maintain the common exterior areas and ensure the development is well maintained. This development will assist in meeting the Lake Bellevue Neighborhood Revitalization Strategy Area (NRSA) Consolidated Plan 2020/2021 -2024/2025 housing related goals by providing twenty-four affordable, owner-occupied units of housing. The Lake Bellevue NRSA is predominately residential and while most of the residential development is single-family, there are many multifamily structures. Yet, the majority of such units are renter-occupied. A priority need identified within this targeted area is specifically additional affordable housing units, with the private sector's lack of investment as a barrier to growth. This development will address both of those concerns, while achieving the City’s established performance measurements to “construct 15 housing units for rental and support homebuyer activities”. TAB 1 Narrative and Vision Statement The proposed development is consistent with the City’s overarching Comprehensive Plan - Housing Element goal, which calls for a “affordable variety of standard housing units in decent and safe neighborhoods to meet the needs of the current and future residents, regardless of race, nationality, age marital status, handicap or religion.” It also meets various objectives within the Housing Element of the Comprehensive Plan, which include; C.1.1 – Adequate housing, C.1.2- Affordable Housing, C.1.4 – Adequate Sites for Very Low, Low and Moderate Income Households, C.1.9 – The City if Clearwater shall be proactive in incentivizing the construction of affordable housing and C.1.10 - Recognizing that sustainable building techniques contribute to keeping housing units affordable over the long term by reducing energy consumption, lowering utility bills and decreasing maintenance costs, the City of Clearwater will promote the use of green housing construction and renovation and rehabilitation techniques. In summary, the proposed development creates a shared interest partnership with Habitat and TBNHS, aligning both organization's strengths to meet all objectives of the RFP and best serve the community. Additionally, the proposal is responsive to the unmet needs of the Lake Bellevue NRSA, aligns with the Consolidated Plan goals, is consistent with local zoning and land use and meets the goals and objectives of the Housing Element of the City’s Comprehensive plan.

Our current development team has contributed to most of our growth and success over the last several years. Our CEO Mike Sutton has led our organization to this immense growth in serving more families, building over 400 homes since taking over the helm. He leads our development team with more than 100 years of experience within the construction, development and financial services sectors. This last fiscal year, Habitat completed 67 single-family fee-simple homes sold to qualified low to moderate-income buyers. This fiscal year we are on track to complete 80 homes and have a 3-year strategic plan to complete a total of 210 homes. Nationally, we rank as the 2nd largest Habitat affiliate by new home construction and locally, according to the Tampa Bay Business Journal, we are the 14th largest homebuilder in the Tampa Bay region. List of multifamily projects within the past 5 years: b. Demonstrated experience with implementing sustainable building design standards, including sustainably sourced materials, energy efficiency measures, and/or renewable energy systems Habitat is proud to report we earned a 2022 ENERGY STAR® Market Leader Award from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in recognition of our contribution to building energy-efficient new homes that have earned ENERGY STAR certification. Energy Star-certified homes are at least 10% more energy efficient than those built to code and achieve a 20% improvement on average while providing homeowners with better quality, performance, and comfort. The Market Leader Award recognizes partners participating in EPA’s ENERGY STAR Residential New Construction program who have significantly impacted energy-efficient construction and environmental protection. Every unit constructed will be EnergyStar certified. This includes; insulated fiberglass exterior doors, Low-E double panel windows throughout, HVAC system with programmable thermostat and fresh air intake damper, Mastic sealed ductwork, R-30 fiberglass insulation over living spaces, R-11 frame wall insulation, R-4.1 insulation on concrete exterior walls, and Microwave vented to the outside. Homes also come equipped with hurricane impact resistant windows and hurricane-rated garage doors as well as roof trusses hurricane strapped. All homes finished floor elevations are built above the local based flood elevation to mitigated flood issues, Lastly, finishes include; hardwood cabinets, carpet/tile/vinyl flooring, whirlpool appliances and be rewiring for both cable and phone. TAB 2 Developer Experienceand Qualifications c. Demonstrated experience with income qualification, monitoring, assistance and other activities associated with adhering to regulations of affordable housing Our organizations have over eighty (80) years of combined experience in monitoring compliance, determining income qualification and other activities associated with adhering to affordable housing regulations. In addition, both organizations utilize a multitude of local, state and federal funding that mandate monitoring compliance and set forth various regulatory measures that must be adhered to. Collectively, both organizations have vast experience with Community Development Block Grant (CDBG), HOME Investment Partnership Program, Self-Help Homeownership Opportunity Program (SHOP), Neighborhood Stabilization Program (NSP), State Housing Initiatives Partnership Program (SHIP) and local Tax Increment Financing (TIF) funding sources. The above- referenced sources of funding have income qualification requirements and often ongoing compliance. These sources fund programs such as: down-payment assistance, owner-occupied rehabilitation programs, new construction for sale to low-to-moderate income homebuyers, construction financing loans and property acquisition/rehab/resale to low-to-moderate income homebuyers, all of which our organizations collectively utilize to serve the community. Habitat is subject to an annual financial audit for major federal programs and major state financial assistance projects and has never been found in noncompliance by independent third party auditors. TBNHS is also subject to annual financial audits with its most recent audit completed in August and no findings reported. TAB 2 Developer Experienceand Qualifications 1. Financial institution reference contact(s)’ names and contact information. Co-developers will provide upon successful negotiation of financial term sheet 2. Preliminary financial plan to include: a. Construction budget detailing total project cost and proposed source(s) of funding Per the attached proforma, we seek a land grant with a total development cost of $9,040,170 or $376,673.72 a unit and an average blended sales price of $325,000 a unit. Given these unit economics, there is a $1,240,170 total development funding gap, which equals to $51,674.73 per unit, thus, this project necessitates subsidies to make the development financially feasible. Habitat believes we bring a competitive advantage within the marketplace with our ability to sell homes with 0% interest mortgages. Eliminating the interest component of the mortgage means homeowners can increase their purchasing power affording a higher purchase price while still remaining in their monthly payment affordability. In comparison, TBNHS has deep roots within the City of Clearwater and is an expert at leveraging down payment assistance programs to help individuals achieve homeownership. As co-developers, we would seek to work with the City of Clearwater to braid various funding sources available within the City, as well as utilize Penny for Pinellas (Penny IV) funding to eliminate this funding gap and ensure the project's financial feasibility. We are confident if selected by the City to develop this parcel, we will put forth a competitive application to Pinellas County for funding consideration. The Board of County Commissioners adopted resolution 19-6 in February of 2019 that provides preference to developments in which units will benefit households making 80% of the AMI or less. Additionally, this development meets several top-tier Penny for Pinellas scoring criteria, including; per unit subsidy, local government assistance (local contribution and regulatory relief), county funds to affordable units ratio, development location (in the NRSA), and low-income homeownership. To date, we are unaware of an affordable homeownership development funded by Penny IV, which again would put this project in a unique competitive landscape for funding. That being said, if Penny IV funding cannot be secured, we will need to seek additional subsidy from the City and/or other funding sources. However, we believe a $51,000 per unit subsidy to serve the below 80% AMI and workforce population through homeownership is extremely reasonable given the current market conditions and may be suitable for the City to fully fund to serve as a catalytic development for the community. TAB 3 Legal & Financial Feasibility: Developer and Project TAB 3 Legal & Financial Feasibility: Developer and Project b. Demonstration of developer’s financial capacity to develop the Site As for development financing, Habitat and TBNHS management teams have proven business and affordable housing development experience. Both organizations maintain relationships with local construction financing lenders and do not anticipate any issues with underwriting should the proposal move forward. As an organization, Habitat has working capital to help support the project underwriting finance requirements and a strong balance sheet to attract favorable terms. Before seeking traditional construction financing, we would seek to reduce financing costs by leveraging the various forms of public multifamily low-interest construction financing available for affordable housing developments within the community. If selected to develop this parcel, the co-developers will begin working immediately to secure favorable financing term sheets and would support conditioning such financing within the development terms sheet negotiated with the City. c. Projected sale price of units and anticipated sale schedule Both our organizations have provided affordable homeownership opportunities in the community for decades. There is significant awareness of our services within the public through extensive community involvement. Historically, both organizations have successfully recruited homebuyers from the local areas we built in. This is typically accomplished through a coordinated marketing and outreach effort within the focus community. While unique to each community, marketing efforts may include ad placements in hyper-local publications, location-targeted social media advertising, direct mail campaigns, and unearned media attention highlighting new initiatives. In synchronization, our community outreach efforts may include recruitment events at local community centers, engaging local businesses who serve the area or employ residents, word-of-mouth referrals, door knocking, attending community events, and leveraging stakeholders to spread the messaging. Although not a requirement, our preference, as stated above, is to recruit local homeowners from the areas we serve. We intend to partner with community partners, such as first-time homebuyers’ programs, local community led organizations and potentially the City to hold homeownership information events for residents. Specifically, Habitat’s program also operates differently than the traditional developers who spec build homes. Habitat actively recruits homeowners throughout the year and maintains a pipeline of 100+ qualified candidates at any given time. These qualified homeowners are then matched to vacant properties based on location and need, with the homes being built to family size. Given this model, we would expect the lots provided to be matched with a qualified candidate before a building permit is pulled. As stated above the anticipated average blended sales price for the development is $325,000 a unit. Per the project schedule (see project schedule) program/sales marketing will begin within a month of successful property acquisition. The sales and marketing period will last approximately twenty-six (26) months. We do not anticipate any issues with demand as the local region's lack of affordable and workforce housing options is extremely restricted.

Drawings may be “conceptual” in format but should be detailed enough to reflect the scope of the proposed development. Narrative elements to be addressed include: a. Height b. Scale c. Density and Intensity d. Proposed architectural style and material types e. Site and building orientation f. Access points and curb cuts g. Proposed parking h. Highlight of creative and innovative design solutions i. Income mix of units (a minimum of 50% of total units must be reserved for households with total household income not exceeding 80% AMI) The conceptual site plan design (subject to development plan review and approval) consists of a total of twenty-four (24), two-story townhome units. The development will be in harmony, consistent with the scale, bulk, coverage, and character of adjacent properties, and permissible within the current zoning. The site is zoned Medium Density Residential (MDR) with a Future Land Use designation of Residential Medium which allows residential density up to fifteen (15) dwelling units per acre, however the Community Development Code provides for an affordable housing density increase of 20% bringing the total allowable density of the site to twenty-four (24) units. Buildings are 30ft (two story) in height and consist of five separate buildings, which are comprised of two (2) six (6) unit buildings, two (2) five (5) unit buildings and one (1) two (2) unit building. Building footprints range from 4,800 sqft (6 units design) to 1600 sqft (2 unit design) with setbacks meeting the minimum code requirements of 25ft front and 10ft side/rear requirements. The site plan design reflects the character of the surrounding residential neighborhood in density and site intensity, while maintaining a walkable, residential environment. The proximity of buildings has been taken into account when planning their layout in order to maximize greenspace and enhance privacy. The site plan utilizes South Martin Luther King, Jr. Avenue, as the primary entrance with curb cuts and signage identifying the development, while paying careful attention to the relationship between the building(s) and the street. Each unit will have a front-loaded one (1) car garage and an adjoining parking pad, equaling two (2) parking space per unit and forty-eight (48) total parking spaces for the development. Building elevations will include sufficient architectural elements to create visual interest and break up building massing. Each building will have decorative columns and metal roof awnings to create a visually appealing architectural design and add dimension to the front elevation. The outside façade will incorporate contemporary design elements with modern and traditional accents. The current proposed exterior elevations incorporate diverse cladding elements, which includes brick veneer and a stucco finish. Diverse color palates for buildings will be included to avoid creating a monochrome and bland façade. All elevation designs will adhere to local zoning requirements. Each building will be landscaped with Florida-friendly landscaping incorporated throughout the development. Ultimately, building materials will be selected based on their durability, maintenance required and value engineering to mitigate costs. TAB 4 Development Concept: Ability to Meet Redevelopment Objectives To satisfy the requirements of the Request for Proposal and to meet the City’s goal of developing a mixed-income housing development, 12 units (50%) will be reserved for income-qualified homeowners making less than 80% of area median income, and 12 units (50%) will be reserved for income-qualified homeowners making up to 120% of area median income. To accomplish this mixed income development Habitat and TBNHS would partner to co-develop the parcel, leveraging both organizations abilities to serve the diverse income range required.

Martin Luther King Jr. Avenue. In order to ensure that our businesses have the workers they need, we need to address the issue of housing affordability. This means we need a diverse array of options that meet the needs of a variety of income levels. This is why we support the joint development proposal from Tampa Bay Neighborhood Housing Services in partnership with Habitat for Humanity of Pinellas & Pasco Counties to develop twenty-four townhomes for affordable and workforce housing. This proposal will provide homes for individuals and families seeking an affordable place to live within our city and we believe that it is an excellent use of public property. We are particularly excited about the impact this project will have on the community; it will provide stable housing, promote economic development, and increase access to healthy, sustainable communities. The approval of this project will help the city open a new chapter in the ever-evolving story of affordable and workforce housing. Let s get this built. Sincerely, Clearwater Urban Leadership Coalition Gloria Campbell Executive Director Seeking to put God's love into action, Habitat for Humanity brings people together to build homes, communities, and hope.

Osceola Avenue Clearwater, FL 33755 File Number: ID#25-0295 Agenda Date: 4/14/2025 Status: Agenda ReadyVersion: 1 File Type: ReportIn Control: Economic Development & Housing Agenda Number: 3.2 SUBJECT/RECOMMENDATION: Approve an amended loan term of 43 years for funding to be provided by the City of Clearwater to SAH Holdings LP for the land acquisition of real property located at 801 Chestnut St. contingent upon the satisfactory outcome of, as determined by the Economic Development and Housing Director, a subsidy analysis, the receipt of a structural evaluation, approval of all funding sources, and a tenant relocation plan; and authorize the appropriate officials to execute documents required to effect closing of the loan. (consent) SUMMARY: Indigo Apartments is comprised of 208 units and was originally developed for low-income senior housing. In 2015, the property was purchased and converted to market rate, excluding 20 units that are legally restricted by HOME funding that was previously provided to the property by the City of Clearwater. Sunrise Affordable Housing Group, through their special purpose entity SAH Holdings LP (Sunrise) is currently under contract to acquire Indigo Apartments and is planning to convert it to legally restricted affordable housing under a 50-year affordability commitment through the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) program, implementing income and rent restrictions on 100% of units with thresholds set at 30%, 60% and 80% of area median income. The restrictions will result in significant rent reductions, resulting in an average +/- 51% discount when compared to today’s market-rate rents. The property will be placed in the Pinellas County Land Trust, which will provide a 99-year lease to Sunrise Affordable Housing Group, placing 208 housing units under the county’s land use restrictions. Originally, Council approved a deferred, 0% interest loan, with a loan term of 40 years in the amount of $1,000,000.00, utilizing a combination of CDBG and SHIP funding. The loan will support the acquisition of the property. The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) requires all loans to be co-terminus with the 40-year HUD loan of which the term does not begin until the construction-to-permanent conversion. Therefore, the developer is requesting a 43-year term for the City’s loan to conservatively cover the construction period and the 40-year HUD loan Term. Staff recommends the approval of a 43-year term. APPROPRIATION CODE AND AMOUNT: Funding is to be provided by State Housing Initiatives Partnership (SHIP) Program, Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) and CDBG Revolving Loan Funds. No General Fund monies will be appropriated. USE OF RESERVE FUNDS: N/A STRATEGIC PRIORITY: Objective 2.4 - Supports equitable housing programs that promote household stability and reduces the incidence of Homelessness within Clearwater. Page 1 City of Clearwater Printed on 4/8/2025 INDIGO APARTMENTS City of Clearwater Staff Evaluation: Executive Summary PROFILE SUBJECT PROPERTY Task: Analyze the proposed project for Indigo Apartments, located at 801 Chestnut St, and provide a project summary Brief Summary: Sunrise Affordable Housing Group has submitted a request for funding in the amount of $1,000,000 from the City of Clearwater and $2,000,000 from the Community Redevelopment Agency, in the form of a deferred 0% interest loan for the acquisition and rehab of Indigo Apartments. Sunrise plans to revert the property back to low-income housing. Indigo Apartments 801 Chestnut St. Interior Area: 137,768 SF Land Area: 2.31 Ac 208 Units PROJECT HIGHLIGHTS STAFF ASSESSMENT Source: Pinellas County Funding Recommendation Staff has reviewed the proforma, sources and uses and proposed funding stack and have determined that the funding gap and fund request are reasonable. Staff has determined that the project has an acceptable debt service coverage ratio of 1.15. Staff recommends the following contingencies: Final approval of funding is contingent upon the satisfactory result of the subsidy analysis to be performed by HUD. Final approval of funding is contingent upon the approval of all other proposed funding sources. Final approval of funding is contingent upon positive findings from a relocation plan analysis. Ad Valorem Taxes: The development will not be eligible for the property tax exemption however the estimated ad valorem tax will decrease by 28%, per the property tax analysis that was provided by the developer due to the reduction in rental income. PROJECT BENEFITS Tenant Relocation Plan As a result of the conversion, an estimation of 59 of the current residents will be considered over-qualified / over-income (above 80% AMI threshold). Sunrise has developed a relocation plan for these tenants, ensuring compliance with the Federal Uniform Relocation Act, which protects the existing tenants from additional costs beyond their current rent and utility expenses. The plan includes advisory services, commitment funds by the developer to providing financial assistance to tenants who do not meet the new income requirement, a strategy for relocating tenants and an appeal and grievance process. Unit set-aside for most vulnerable residents Project to be placed in the County land trust Large boost for Clearwater AH supply. Strategic Plan Obj. 2.4- Support equitable housing programs that promote household stability and reduce incidents of homelessness within Clearwater.

In 2020, existing ownership terminated the age restrictions, invested money in cosmetic upgrades and transformed the Property into market-rate housing. Current ownership increased rents by nearly 50% and displaced 100% of the existing senior tenant base. Sunrise is currently under contract to acquire The Indigo Apartments and has site control for the next year through a Purchase & Sale Agreement. Affordable Housing Transformation: Sunrise plans to acquire the Property and convert it back to affordable housing with a 50-year affordability commitment through the LIHTC program, implementing income and rent restrictions on 100% of units with thresholds set at 30% AMI, 60% AMI and 80% AMI. The restrictions will result in significant rent reductions, resulting in an average ~51% discount to today’s market-rate rents. The property will also be placed in a 99-year land trust with Pinellas County, putting 208 affordable housing units under the county’s control forever. Rehabilitation: Sunrise has planned a $9.5 million capital improvement plan designed to preserve and extend the useful life of the 1971-vintage asset. Construction will be completed within 12 months of closing. The renovation will encompass a variety of holistic improvements, including renovation of all classic apartment units, site infrastructure / MEP upgrades, green energy-saving initiatives, and life & safety upgrades. Resident Services: Sunrise will also be providing countless programs for its residents to significantly improve the tenant experience. Programs include financial counseling, holiday activities, computer training, healthcare visits, homebuying seminars, among others. There will be an on-site service coordinator paid for by Sunrise. Commitment from Other Government Departments: Sunrise is requesting Clearwater CRA funds to use, in conjunction with a HUD loan, tax credit equity and soft funding from Pinellas County and city of Clearwater’s Economic Development & Housing department, to finance the acquisition, capital improvement plan and affordable housing transformation. With your support, we can provide quality affordable housing to Clearwater forever. PROJECT’S COMMUNITY IMPACT The need for affordable housing in Clearwater is more apparent than ever. Rents have been growing at unprecedent levels since 2020 and tenant demand for affordable housing is at all-time highs. On top of that, Clearwater is experiencing a massive shortage of affordable housing supply and has not seen much new stock over the past few years. As of today, there are only a handful of LIHTC properties in Clearwater, and there has only been 1 new delivery in the last 5 years. These properties have an average occupancy of 96% and many are fully occupied with long waitlists. An additional 208 affordable housing units, including 100 covered by a PBV, would be tremendous for the community & fill up immediately. Source: CoStar.

Sunrise has applied for a 100-unit Project-Based Voucher with the City of Clearwater, which will allow us to rent to the community’s most vulnerable households. 100% of tenants will be required to earn less than 80% AMI. Sunrise has reserved units for tenants earning 30% AMI, 60% AMI and 80% AMI. Describe policies for how the tenants will be selected. All tenants will be required to earn less than 80% AMI; the AMI restrictions are shown in the table on the prior page. Additionally, Sunrise applied for a 100-unit project-based voucher with Clearwater Housing Authority, which will allow us to provide housing for deeply subsidized and “at-need” tenants. Historically, the property has served the senior (55+) population and currently over 30% of units are above the 55- age threshold. Sunrise anticipates continued rental demand from seniors / individuals. Sunrise has hired WRH Realty, a professional and affordable housing specialized 3rd-party party property manager with experience in Pinellas County. The management agent will establish an Affirmative Fair Housing Marketing Plan that will be clearly posted for all tenants and potential applicants. This plan will be reviewed on a quarterly basis to ensure compliance/adherence for application intake, waitlist, income verifications and other various fair housing topics. Fair Housing Act training for on-site staff will be conducted annually. Given the large discount to market-rate comparables, we expect exceptional tenant demand to live at The Indigo.

This Transaction will Result in a Significant Boost to Clearwater’s Affordable Housing Supply The Indigo Apartments conversion will establish the third largest LIHTC community in Clearwater, ensure the City and County have site control indefinitely and increase the stock of Affordable Housing units in the City by 18%. As seen in the chart below, there are only 9 LITHC properties in Clearwater totaling 1,127 units. This transaction is an opportunity to make the largest increase to the Clearwater Affordable Housing stock over the last two decades and nearly match the amount of units produced during that timeframe. This transaction is not Affordable Housing preservation, it is Affordable Housing creation. 2. Produce New Affordable Housing Units at 42% Discount to New Development Costs Last month, Clearwater announced its first new LIHTC development project in a few years, Clearwater Gardens. It is reported this deal has a cost basis of $395k per unit. The cost basis for The Indigo Apartments is approximately $229k per unit which represents a 42% discount to Clearwater Gardens. 3. Solving Affordable Housing Crisis Through Only New Development is Not Feasible As demonstrated by Clearwater Gardens, it is incredibly difficult to identify feasible ground-up affordable housing deals due to increased construction costs, soaring insurance premiums, higher interest rates, and appreciating land values. Once a project does look financially feasible, it is still subject to winning a 9% LIHTC FHFC award, which is incredibly competitive and an unpredictable lottery process. Notably, it was reported that the Clearwater Gardens project had been in pre-development planning since 2020 due to multiple years of a failed 9% LIHTC FHFC awards. The city will not be able to address the growing affordable housing crisis if new ground-up development is the only means to creating Affordable Housing. It will take years for new projects to match the number of Affordable Housing units being created in this transaction.

Rent-Restricted properties. 4. 100% of Indigo Units Will Be Rent & Income Restricted into Perpetuity As part of this transaction, The Indigo Apartments will restrict rent & incomes for all units to ensure 100% of the residents earn less than 80% AMI. As illustrated in the unit mix below, Sunrise will set-aside units within a range of income bands from 30% AMI to 80% AMI. On average, we are decreasing property rents by ~32%. Additionally, by placing the property in the Pinellas County Land Trust, the county & city will have control of this property in perpetuity. There is no opportunity for any owner in the future to convert The Indigo Apartments back to market-rate housing. 5. Set-Aside for Community’s Most Vulnerable Residents via Project-Based Voucher Subsidy As part of Sunrise’s commitment to affordability, 52 units will be set-aside for residents who earn 30% AMI or less. Sunrise is not aware of any other LIHTC properties in Clearwater targeting this underserved population at this scale. In coordination with Clearwater Housing Authority, Sunrise will provide subsidy on all 52-units through a project-based voucher. This will ensure access to clean, safe and secure housing for the city’s most vulnerable and at-need residents. The City of Clearwater PBV award letter attached. 6. Hired a Third-Party Consultant That Devised a URA-Compliant Relocation Plan for Over- Qualified Residents Sunrise has hired a 3rd-party Tenant Relocation expert to devise a relocation plan that is URA-compliant and abides by all relevant regulations, including HUD. The relocation plan is attached and briefly summarized below: - No resident will be evicted - Substantial notice of non-renewal - Sunrise to pay for reasonable moving costs - Sunrise to pay for 1-on-1 meetings between residents and relocation specialist to find new living - Sunrise to pay for any increased rent as a result of this transaction for 42 months The average income for the over-qualified residents is ~$85,000 per year which is around 120% AMI, and many of those residents have reported over six-figure salaries. 7. Gentrification by New Owners May Displace a Majority of Existing Residents Sunrise was introduced to this project by JLL, which was marketing The Indigo as an opportunity to increase rents by $300 per unit per month. If Sunrise were not to acquire The Indigo, the Property is likely to be bought by a new market-rate owner, who will continue the gentrification process by pushing rents higher to meet market levels. If this were to come to fruition, much of the existing residents are likely to be displaced with no URA- compliant tenant relocation plan or government oversight. 8. $3 Million Loan from Clearwater will Result in $25 Million in County and Federal Funding The City of Clearwater will be able to attract $25 million in County and federal funding through a $3 million dollar loan to this development. For every dollar committed, Clearwater will receive an 8.3x funding multiple from the County and Federal government. This includes $7 million from Pinellas County through the Penny for Pinellas Program and $18 million from the federal government in tax credits. 1 Resident Engagement & Relocation Assistance Plan The Indigo Apartments 801 Chestnut St, Clearwater, FL 33756 Prepared for Sunrise Affordable By CompassPoint Community Partners, LLC 2 Background: The Indigo Apartments is a 17-story high rise located in Downtown Clearwater, Florida. The property was originally built in 1971 and comprises 208 studio and 1- bedroom units, totaling 92,894 square feet. Sunrise Affordable Housing Group (“Sunrise Affordable” or “Sunrise”) will be acquiring the property and simultaneously placing it into the LIHTC program with set-asides at 30% AMI, 60% AMI and 80% AMI. As a result of the conversion, 59 of the current residents will be considered over-qualified / over-income (above 80% AMI threshold). The property will undergo substantial rehabilitation but mostly of the exterior and building envelope. There will be no reconstruction of the units that would require tenants to be temporarily relocated. The property currently has 20 HOME units that are covered under an existing HOME agreement for 20 years. Additionally, the project will receive the following federal financial assistance: o HUD 221(d)(4) loan; estimated at ~$20M o Project Based Vouchers from Clearwater Housing Authority The acquisition of real property for this project is subject to the Uniform Relocation Act (“URA”) and the requirements described in 49 CFR Part 24, subpart B. Therefore, all impacted tenants including those who are over-income are protected by the URA. These impacted tenants will be fully informed in writing of their URA rights and protections, provided the necessary advisory services and offered permanent relocation assistance. General Approach: In formulating this Plan, Sunrise incorporated key features of the Federal Uniform Relocation Act (URA) and U.S. Department of HUD Relocation Handbook 1378. In a situation where tenants will be displaced from their homes, for example, the HUD relocation handbook recommends: A) The owner or agency issues a General Notice with proof of receipt. B) Each displaced unit will receive notice explaining eligibility for relocation services and assistance. C) Each household receives a notice identifying the date of move at least 90 days in advance. D) There is an appeal and grievance process. E) The owner or agency offers advisory services as outlined above. 3 The Federal Uniform Relocation Act also extends straight-forward guidance for the work envisioned by the owner: 1) In the event of displacement, any apartment identified must be decent, safe, and sanitary. 2) The resident should not incur any additional expenses beyond the current rent and utility costs. 3) Financial assistance will be provided for the tenants. 4) The owner or agency shall give advance written notice. Sunrise has put in place a detailed and carefully thought-out plan for the relocation of over-income tenants, which is laid out in the 7 steps below: 1) Distribution of General Information, Non-Displacement, and Eligibility Notices: Sunrise and their consultant, CompassPoint Community Partners, will determine who must be displaced and who will be allowed to remain at the property. After making these determinations, they will issue the appropriate relocation notices: either a Notice of Eligibility (for relocation assistance) (Exhibit A) or a Notice of Non- Displacement (Exhibit B), which will be provided to each affected head of household by hand-delivery. This important correspondence to the residents will contain the following information in English, Spanish, and other languages as needed: • Explain that a project has been proposed and caution the person not to move. • Provide directions for contacting the on-site coordinator to set up a coordination meeting. • Confirm that this action by the team will require residents to permanently move due to the planned conversion. • Inform the person that they will not be required to move without at least 90 days’ advance written notice of (1) at least one "comparable replacement home" that is available and (2) the expiration of their current lease. • Describe the household’s right to file a grievance or complaint. 4 2) Initial Interview: A crucial part of the resident engagement process and plan will be the initial interview with the head of household after the distribution of the Notice of Eligibility. The heads of household will be contacted at an early date and personally interviewed by a representative of the Agency to determine the household’s relocation needs and preferences for replacement housing and advisory services. The interviewer will ask certain questions about the makeup of the household, including questions about income. Each affected household will be given a HUD brochure titled “RELOCATION ASSISTANCE TO TENANTS DISPLACED FROM THEIR HOMES”. 3) Preparing Each Household for Moving Sunrise and/or their property management partner will explain the procedures and steps that residents will have to follow to pack and move their belongings. Under no circumstances will any resident be forced to relocate prior to the expiration of their lease. Tenants will be given enough time to make plans for moving. Unless there is a health or safety emergency, residents will not be required to move without at least 90 days advance written notice of (1) at least one "comparable replacement home" that is available and (2) the expiration of their current lease. 4) Financial Assistance: Each household will receive financial assistance that will cover the following: 1) Reimbursement of reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (e.g. – cost of moving) 2) Any increase in monthly rent / utility costs at the replacement units Financial assistance will be received at the time of their move, and according to the apartment type occupied by the resident at the time of the GIN. The head of household will sign a receipt for the financial assistance which sets forth the anticipated financial assistance to each household. Each household will be able to choose from the following options: Payment for Moving Expenses: You may choose either: a) Payment for Your Actual Reasonable Moving and Related Expenses, or 5 b) Fixed Moving Expense and Dislocation Allowance, per the URA Fixed Residential Moving Cost Schedule which is based on the number of rooms in the unit or number of rooms of furniture you will be moving a. For example, studios will receive $1,150 and $1,350 for 1-bedrooms. Replacement Housing Assistance: This will cover any increase in monthly rent / utility costs. Displaced residents may choose either of the below, to enable them to rent, or if preferred, buy a comparable or suitable replacement home, you: a) Rental Assistance, or b) Purchase Assistance The rental assistance is based on the difference between the comparable replacement unit and the lessor of (1) the current rent and average utility payments or (2) 30% of the residents’ income. Times 42 months. We will cover the difference in rent for 3.5 years. 5) Advisory Services: On behalf of the team, Sunrise’s consultant, CompassPoint Community Partners, LLC will coordinate all aspects of this plan with the site staff. Advisory services will include the following scope of work: 1) Determine the needs and desires for assistance through an initial survey. 2) Explain the procedures, costs, and coordination involved in the process. 3) Assist with translation, as necessary. 4) Coordinate scheduling of moves and/or access with each household and management. 5) Process approved assistance established in this Plan. 6) Explain the procedures for packing and securing each resident’s personal belongings and assist any displaced household with moving arrangements. 7) Keep files for each household related to the process. 8) Maintain a line of communication with all related entities and individuals, city officials, and residents. 6) Appeal & Grievance Process: Under the URA and HUD Handbook, a household can dispute the adequacy of their assistance, and appeal their relocation benefits eligibility status after receipt of a written relocation notification. In the case of the Plan, there will be no final determination of relocation benefits or disallowed expenses. The appeal and grievance process, therefore, should be a method for each household to file complaints with the owner. A general email will be established and shared that allows 6 residents to submit their complaints directly to CompassPoint and Sunrise. 7) Records: Sunrise Affordable and CompassPoint will establish a separate file for each household. A record of all correspondence with each resident will be kept in the household file, along with any receipts and other additional materials needed for monitoring and administrative purposes. Sunrise Affordable and CompassPoint will maintain a record for each household with a general comment sheet to record information, concerns, and miscellaneous/other items. Likewise, the team will make available all the resident-related documentation maintained for the Plan when requested by the Agency. 7 Exhibit A – DRAFT NOTICE OF ELIGIBILITY FOR URA RELOCATION ASSISTANCE Date: _____/_____/_____ BY HAND DELIVERY NAME: UNIT #: Dear: ____________________________________________: On ___(date) _, Sunrise Affordable notified you of proposed plans to acquire the property you currently occupy at (address)_______ for a project which could receive funding assistance from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) under the _______________________ program.

This is your Notice of Eligibility for relocation assistance. The effective date of your eligibility is _______________. (NOTE: Pursuant to Public Law 105-117, aliens not lawfully present in the United States are not eligible for relocation assistance, unless such ineligibility would result in exceptional hardship to a qualifying spouse, parent, or child. All persons seeking relocation assistance will be required to certify that they are a United States citizen or national, or an alien lawfully present in the United States.) To carry out the project, it will be necessary for you to move. However, you do not need to move now. You will be provided written notice of the date by which you will be required to move. This date will be no less than 90 days from the date comparable replacement housing has been made available to you. Enclosed is a brochure entitled, "Relocation Assistance to Tenants Displaced From Their Homes." Please read the brochure carefully. It explains your rights and provides additional information on eligibility for relocation payments and what you must do in order to receive these payments. The relocation assistance to which you are entitled includes: • Relocation Advisory Services. Including counseling and other assistance to help you find another home and prepare to move. • Payment for Moving Expenses. You may choose: (1) a payment for your actual reasonable moving and related expenses, or (2) a fixed moving payment in the amount of $________ based on the URA Fixed Residential Moving Cost Schedule. • Replacement Housing Payment.

The monthly rent and the estimated average monthly cost of utilities for this dwelling is $ and it will be used to calculate your maximum replacement housing payment. Please contact us immediately if you believe this dwelling is not comparable to your current home.

If the original Vendor sells or transfers all assets or the entire portion of the assets used to perform this contract, a successor-in-interest must perform all obligations under this contract.

In the event a manufacturer reassigns the product line to an alternate company, the Vendor is required to notify the FSA CPP in writing of the change within 10 business days of the reassignment. If the Vendor is not already an approved FSA CPP Vendor, the alternate company is required to submit a Qualifications Packet to the FSA CPP to become an approved Vendor prior to conducting any qualified sales.

In these instances, the FSA CPP may also require information from the source of supply regarding the quality, packaging and characteristics of the products. Any conflicts between this material information provided by the source of supply and the information contained in the bid submission may render the bid nonresponsive. During the contract period, FSA CPP may review the Vendor’s record of performance and may require submission of supporting documentation to ensure that the Vendor is providing sufficient financial support, equipment and organization. If the FSA CPP determines that the Vendor no longer possesses the financial support, equipment and organization in order to comply with this section, FSA has the authority to immediately terminate the contract.

Any violation of these stipulations may also result in: • Vendor's name being removed from the awarded vendor list. • FSA and purchasers being advised not to do business with Vendor. 1.32 GRATUITIES Bidders shall not offer any gratuities, favors, or anything of monetary value to any official, employee, or agent of the FSA, for the purpose of influencing consideration of this bid. Bidders shall disclose in writing any conflicts of interest to FSA prior to any award, or as soon as practicable after learning of any such conflict, including any contractual or employment relationships with FSA or potential purchasers of Bidders’ products or services. 1.33 TIE BIDS FSA CPP has the right to award multiple Bidders the primary or alternate award in the event of a tie. In the event the FSA CPP desires to break tie bids, and businesses have qualifying drug-free work programs, the award will be made using the following criteria: • Bidder within the State of Florida • Vendors’ performance record with purchasers • Coin Toss 1.34 RIGHT TO AUDIT Vendor shall establish and maintain a reasonable accounting system that enables FSA CPP to readily identify Vendor’s sales. FSA CPP and its authorized representatives shall have the right to audit and to make copies of all related records pertaining to this contract, including all government sales and eligible user information, whether kept by or under the control of the Vendor, including, but not limited to those kept by its employees, agents, assigns, successors, sub-vendors, or third-party suppliers in whatever form they may be kept – written or electronic. Such records shall include, but not be limited to: • Accounting records, including but not limited to purchase orders, confirmation of orders or invoices, paid vouchers, cancelled checks, deposit slips, ledgers, and bank statements; • Written policies and procedures; • Subcontract files (including proposals of successful and unsuccessful Bidders, bid recaps, etc.); • Original estimates, quotes, or work sheets; • Contract amendments and change order files; • Insurance documents; or • Memoranda or correspondence. Vendor shall maintain such records during the term of this contract and for a period of three (3) years after the completion of this contract. At the Vendor’s expense and upon written notice from FSA CPP, the Vendor shall provide such records for inspection and audit by FSA CPP or its authorized representatives. Such records shall be made available to FSA CPP during normal business hours within three business days of receipt of the written notice. FSA CPP may select the Vendor’s place of business or offsite location for the audit. The FSA CPP may also request the Vendor provide requested records via e-mail. FLORIDA SHERIFFS ASSOCIATION Cooperative Purchasing Program Contract Terms and Conditions Page 15 Vendor shall ensure FSA has these rights with Vendor’s employees, agents, assigns, successors, and third-party suppliers, and the obligations of these rights shall be explicitly included in any subcontracts or agreements formed between the Vendor and any sub-vendors to the extent that those subcontracts or agreements relate to fulfillment of the Vendor’s obligations to FSA. Professional fees, personnel costs and travel costs incurred by FSA under its authority to audit and not addressed elsewhere will be the responsibility of the FSA. However, if the audit identifies underreporting, overpricing or overcharges (of any nature) by the Vendor to FSA or a purchaser in excess of three percent (3%) of the total contract billings, the Vendor shall reimburse FSA for the total costs of the audit not to exceed $5,000. If the audit discovers substantive findings related to fraud, misrepresentation, or non‐performance, FSA may recoup all the costs of the audit work from the Vendor. Any adjustments or payments that must be made as a result of any such audit or inspection of the Vendor’s invoices or records shall be made within a reasonable amount of time (not to exceed 60 calendar days) from presentation of FSA’s findings to Vendor. FSA has the right to assess damages or seek reimbursements or refunds based on audit results. 1.35 LICENSES AND PERMITS The Bidder shall obtain and pay for all licenses, permits and inspection fees for this bid submission and any resulting contract. Where Vendors are required to enter or go onto FSA or purchaser property to deliver materials or perform work or services as a result of a bid award, the Vendor will assume the full duty, obligation and expense of obtaining all necessary licenses, permits and insurance. The Bidder must, by the time of award, be registered to do business in the State of Florida on SunBiz.gov. 1.36 PERFORMANCE BONDS Purchasers may request a performance bond from a Vendor. Performance bonds are recommended with pre- payment and will be at the expense of the requesting agency. Purchasers should determine the best practice in comparing performance bond expense against any prior discounts that may be available. 1.37 ELIMINATION FROM CONSIDERATION This Invitation to Bid shall not be awarded to any person or Bidder who has outstanding debts to the FSA, whether in relation to current or previous bid awards or for other business purposes. 1.38 INDEPENDENT PREPARATION A Bidder shall not, directly or indirectly, collude, consult, communicate or agree with any other Bidder as to any matter related to the bid each is submitting. Additionally, a Bidder shall not induce any other Bidder to modify, withdraw, submit, or not submit a bid. Bidders or Vendors who are found to have engaged in these acts will be considered nonresponsive and will be suspended or barred from bid participation. Any contract award resulting from these acts may be terminated for FLORIDA SHERIFFS ASSOCIATION Cooperative Purchasing Program Contract Terms and Conditions Page 16 default. Further, any such acts detected by the FSA may be reported to relevant law enforcement and/or prosecutorial agencies. Bidders may submit multiple bids without violating this provision if the bid submitted is not from the same manufacturer and product line. Dealers that share the same ownership may submit multiple bids without violating this provision if the Bidders are not in the same region featuring the same manufacturer and product line. 1.39 DEFAULT In case of default on the part of Vendor, the FSA CPP may take necessary steps to otherwise procure the products sought, including but not limited to procuring the products or services from the next highest ranked Bidder or from other sources. A defaulting Vendor may be held liable for costs incurred by the FSA in procuring replacement products. 1.40 PROTESTS AND ARBITRATION Any person who is adversely affected by the decision or intended decision to award shall file a “Notice of Protest” in writing to the FSA CPP within three (3) business days after the posting of the Intent to Award and shall file a formal written protest within five (5) business days after filing the Notice of Protest. Failure to file both a notice of protest and a formal written protest within the above referenced timelines shall constitute a waiver of proceedings. The burden is on the party protesting the award of the bid to establish grounds for invalidating the award(s). The formal written protest must state with particularity the facts and law upon which the protest is based. Options are for informational purposes only and will not serve as a basis for protest. Failure to do so will result in a denial of protest. Formal written protest which states with particularity the facts and law upon which the protest is based will be reviewed by FSA legal counsel for legal soundness and validity, and corrective action will be taken as needed contingent upon the validity of such claims. However, any additional time required and cost incurred by the FSA to substantiate a protesting party’s claim(s) beyond the normal scope of its legal review due to the vague or inconclusive nature of the protesting party’s filing will be reimbursable to the FSA and deducted from the protesting party’s bond or security which must accompany their filing. Any Bidder who files an action protesting a decision or intended decision pertaining to this contract shall post a bond, cashier’s check or money order payable to the Florida Sheriffs Association in the amount equal to ten percent of the item being protested. The bond, cashier’s check or money order must be filed at the time of filing the formal written protest or within the five (5) business day period allowed for filing the formal written protest. FSA CPP will provide the amount required within two (2) business days of the notice of protest received. This bond or security will be conditioned upon the payment of all costs which may be adjudged against the protesting party in a court of law and/or to reimburse the FSA for additional legal expenses incurred and required to substantiate the protesting party’s claim(s). Failure to post the bond or security requirement within the time allowed for filing will result in a denial of protest. The filing of the protest shall not stay the implementation of the bid award by the Florida Sheriffs Association. Should the unsuccessful Bidder(s) decide to appeal the decision of the FSA, they shall file a notice to FSA CPP within three (3) business days of the FSA bid protest decision regarding their intent to request arbitration. A demand for arbitration with the American Arbitration Association’s (AAA) commercial panel under its rules and regulations must be made within ten (10) business days of the FSA bid protest decision. Any person who files for an arbitration with the AAA shall post with the Florida Sheriffs Association at the time of filing the formal written arbitration request, a bond, cashier’s check or money order payable to the Florida Sheriffs Association in the FLORIDA SHERIFFS ASSOCIATION Cooperative Purchasing Program Contract Terms and Conditions Page 17 amount equal to ten percent of the product line being protested. This amount will be the same amount as the FSA CPP provided at the time of filing the initial protest. Failure to provide written notice to FSA CPP, file a demand for arbitration with the AAA, or failure to post the required bond and security requirement within the specified timelines shall constitute a waiver of arbitration proceedings. By responding to this procurement, the Bidder expressly agrees to the use of mandatory binding arbitration to resolve any appeals of the decision of the FSA, and any claims arising from or in any way relating to the procurement process, and expressly waives any and all rights that it may otherwise have to pursue such claims in any other forum, judicial or otherwise. If the party filing for arbitration does not prevail, it shall pay all costs, legal expenses and attorney fees of the prevailing party incurred in connection with the arbitration. However, if the filing party prevails, the parties shall share equally the fees and expenses of the arbitration and AAA and each shall bear the cost of their own attorney fees. The filing for arbitration shall not stay the implementation of the bid award by the Florida Sheriffs Association. 1.41 NONPERFORMANCE By virtue of the bid submission, Bidder acknowledges its obligation to sell items in all zones for which it is awarded. Upon award, failure of the Vendor to comply with these requirements may result in the imposition of liquidated damages of up to $1,000 per item, which amount the Vendor agrees is reasonable, or probation, suspension, termination or a combination thereof from current and future bids at the FSA CPP’s discretion. The Vendor shall at all times during the contract term remain responsive and responsible. In determining Vendor’s responsibility, the FSA CPP shall consider all information or evidence that demonstrates the Vendor’s ability or willingness to fully satisfy the requirements of the Terms & Conditions. Vendors that are not in compliance with any of the provisions of this contract can be assessed liquidated damages, suspended or terminated from the contract. The FSA CPP at its sole discretion may remove a noncompliant Vendor from future competitive bid solicitations; or take other actions including suspension from the contract until compliance issues are resolved, limit current or future vendor participation by items or zones, or other actions as determined by FSA CPP at its sole discretion. At FSA CPP’s discretion, Vendors may be required to develop corrective action plans to address contract compliance. Failure to abide by corrective action plans will result termination from the existing contract and future competitive bid solicitations at the discretion of the FSA CPP. In situations where there is evidence that the Vendor has engaged in egregious breaches of the contract with respect to either the FSA CPP and/or the purchaser, the contract can be terminated and the Vendor will be removed from future solicitations for a period of up to three (3) years, or a permanent ban from the bid process at the sole discretion of FSA CPP. Specific conditions for termination include, but are not limited to; failure to perform, refusal to accept orders during the contract period while manufacturer orders are still being accepted for current model year or the new year if the vehicle is price protected by the factory, charging amounts exceeding MSRP on factory or Vendor installed items and packages, requiring the purchase of additional options over and above the base vehicle as a condition of acceptance of order, providing aftermarket options where factory options are available without the consent of the purchaser, any misrepresentation of optional equipment or service as being factory that fails to meet the definition as described in this document, and any other practice deemed to be inconsistent with the intent of the contract. FLORIDA SHERIFFS ASSOCIATION Cooperative Purchasing Program Contract Terms and Conditions Page 18 Any Vendor presented with a valid Purchase Order consistent with Vendor bid quotes or other agreed upon terms and pricing is required by this contract to accept such purchase order and deliver the product. Purchase Orders must be fulfilled whether or not the Purchase Order includes options. The Vendor must deliver this product in accordance with the Terms & Conditions – regardless of whether doing so will provide the Vendor with a profit or loss. Failure to deliver the item may result in the purchaser seeking damages for the difference of cost to issue a new Purchase Order with another Vendor plus any legal fees and damages that may be incurred in the process to facilitate a completed order. Additionally, FSA CPP may seek damages for nonpayment of administrative fees, to which FSA CPP is entitled, according to Section 3.28, and any attorney’s fees incurred in the recovery of these damages. 1.42 SEVERABILITY In the event any provision of this contract is held to be unenforceable for any reason, the unenforceability thereof shall not affect the remainder of the contract, which shall remain in full force and effect and enforceable in accordance with its terms. 1.43 TERMINATION FOR CAUSE If through any cause within the reasonable control of the Vendor, it shall fail to fulfill in a timely manner, or otherwise violate any of the terms of this contract, the FSA CPP shall have the right to terminate the services remaining to be performed. Written notice of the deficiencies shall be given to the Vendor and unless the deficiencies are corrected within 10 business days, the contract may be terminated for cause immediately. The right to exercise the option to terminate for cause shall be in the sole discretion of the FSA CPP, and the failure to exercise such right shall not be deemed to constitute a waiver of this right. In the event of a termination for cause, the purchaser shall compensate the successful Bidder in accordance with the contract for all services performed by the successful Bidder prior to termination, net of any costs incurred by the purchaser and FSA as a consequence of the default. Notwithstanding the above, the Vendor shall not be relieved of liability to the FSA for damages sustained by the FSA by virtue of any breach of the contract by the Vendor, and the FSA CPP may reasonably withhold payments to the Vendor for the purposes of offset until such time as the exact amount of damages due the FSA from the Vendor is determined. 1.44 TERMINATION WITHOUT CAUSE The FSA CPP can terminate the contract in whole or part without cause by giving written notice to the Vendor of such termination, which shall become effective 30 calendar days following receipt by Vendor of such notice. In the event of a termination without cause, all finished or unfinished documents and other materials shall be properly delivered to the FSA CPP. The Vendor shall not furnish any product after it receives the notice of termination, except as necessary to complete the continued portion of the contract, if any. The Vendor shall not be entitled to recover any lost profits that the Vendor expected to earn on the balance of the contract or cancellation charges. FLORIDA SHERIFFS ASSOCIATION Cooperative Purchasing Program Contract Terms and Conditions Page 19 Any payments to the Vendor shall be only to the total extent of the purchaser liability for goods or services delivered prior to the date of notice to terminate the contract. 1.45 CONTRACT ADVERTISEMENT AND USE OF FSA LOGO The FSA logo is an official logo of the Florida Sheriffs Association designed to promote the program. The logo may be used by Vendors in accordance with this policy. Use of the logo is limited to the original version received from the FSA. Modifications are not permitted.

Bidder/Vendor shall not be liable for any unreasonable cost, expense or compromise incurred by the Florida Sheriffs Association, or participating agencies, in any legal action without Bidder’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed. The Insurance Checklist summarizes the Bidder’s/Vendor’s insurance coverage obligations, if awarded.

The Base Item Specifications are contained in the FSA CPP Bid System, may be requested from FSA CPP, and are retained within FSA CPP’s archive. As part of the bid submission, Bidders will be required to provide confirmation that the item bid meets the FSA CPP Base Specification. FSA CPP may reject bids that fail to provide confirmation that the item(s) bid meet the FSA CPP Bid Specifications. FSA CPP develops the specifications with subject matter experts and publicly available information. However, FSA CPP does not have access to full details from the manufacturer and relies on Bidders to assist in this process. Bidders should immediately notify the FSA CPP of any inaccuracies in the specifications. All notifications of inaccuracies must be in writing. If awarded a contract, Vendor(s) must offer and supply an item that either meets or exceeds all the requirements included in the applicable Bid Specifications, unless a purchaser specifically issues a Purchase Order for a base item and Option that differs from the Base Specifications. Failure of a Bidder to comply with these provisions will result in Bidders being held responsible for all costs required to bring the item into compliance with the contract specifications. 2.05 SEALED BIDS For purposes of this solicitation, a sealed bid is considered a bid submitted using the FSA CPP Bid System. 2.06 MISTAKES Bidders are expected to examine the Base Item specifications, delivery schedules, bid prices and all information pertaining to servicing this contract before submitting a bid. Failure to do so will be at the Bidder's risk. 2.07 EXCEPTIONS Any requested exceptions, deviations, or contingencies a Bidder may have to the Terms & Conditions must be documented in Bidder’s submission. Exceptions to the Base Specifications at the time of the bid submission shall reference the item number, make and model. FSA CPP has the discretion to grant or deny, in whole or in part, the Bidder’s requested exception, deviation or contingency to the specifications or Terms &Conditions. Bidder acknowledges that the bid may be disqualified if FSA CPP rejects the proposed exceptions. 2.08 EQUIVALENTS Prior to the opening of the Bid System, Bidders may request item equivalents. The Bidder must submit the manufacturer name and model number (or product identifier) of each equivalent requested to FSA CPP. Complete, FLORIDA SHERIFFS ASSOCIATION Cooperative Purchasing Program Contract Terms and Conditions Page 24 descriptive, technical literature should demonstrate that the equivalent conforms with specification. If a bid uses equivalents without prior approval, the bid may be disqualified. 2.09 MANDATORY PRE-BID MEETING Prospective Bidders are required to attend or participate in the mandatory Pre-Bid Meeting. The Pre-Bid Meeting is designed for vendors, the Fleet Advisory Committee and the FSA CPP to clarify questions on the Terms & Conditions and to confirm all Base Item specifications. Questions relating to the items, specifications, the bid process, or award can be asked at the Pre-Bid Meeting. Bidders have the opportunity to suggest technical modifications or corrections before the Base Item specifications are finalized. FSA CPP reserves the right to grant attendance exceptions to the mandatory meeting if the Bidder has requested authorization, agrees in writing to meet all the Terms & Conditions without exception and further waives their right to protest the bid process in its entirety or any portion thereof. 2.10 PRICES QUOTED – HEAVY TRUCKS AND BUSES AND EQUIPMENT INVITATIONS TO BID Items and options should reflect the most complete price and be below MSRP and at a minimum should cover the cost of the item or option bid. Prices quoted in the bid submission should reflect the final amount the Bidder can expect to receive for payment for the items bid for the duration of the contract, unless otherwise provided in the contract. Prices submitted as indicated in the sealed bid are final. Bidders acknowledge that prices quoted will be valid for a period of sixty (60) calendar days from the date of bid opening. Each item, make, and model must be priced and bid separately. Prices must be inclusive of all the components included in the Base Specification. Prices bid must include the administrative fee FSA CPP charges to administer the contract, as outlined in these Terms & Conditions. The administrative fee is three quarters of one percent (.0075). Prices bid must be at least cost, be Free On Board (FOB) destination, and must include delivery to the purchaser. Upon award, the Vendor has the authority to offer additional discounts based on prompt payment, quantity, as well as additional manufacturer or vendor discounts. 2.11 PRICES QUOTED – PURSUIT, ADMINISTRATIVE AND OTHER VEHICLES INVITATION TO BID Due to the changing market conditions, the FSA CPP has temporarily moved to a percent above cost, or “cost- plus”, model for the Pursuit, Administrative and Other Vehicles Contract. The cost-plus model allows for Vendors to sell items immediately when order windows open up for next year’s model, when the manufacturer changes price during the contract term, or when new items come to market. Bidders shall provide a Bid Price and a Percent for each item bid. The Bid Price will be used to evaluate the lowest, responsive and responsible Bidder for each item and zone. The Percent will be used under an awarded contract to determine the cost-plus pricing for new year’s models, when the manufacturer changes price during the contract Page 25 FLORIDA SHERIFFS ASSOCIATION Cooperative Purchasing Program Contract Terms and Conditions term, or when new items come to market. The FSA CPP will use the percent feature of the Bid System as the field to capture the percent above cost that the Vendor can expect to receive from the purchaser for the purchase of an awarded item. The FSA CPP has the discretion to disqualify Bidders if the proposed Percent is excessive. In order to determine if Percent is excessive, FSA will compare the Percents proposed by Bidders for each item in each zone. Prices and Percents bid for items and options should reflect the most complete item price, be below MSRP, and at a minimum should at least cover the cost of the item or option bid. Prices and Percents bid must be at least "Item Cost", be Free On Board (FOB) destination, and must include delivery to the purchaser. As used in this provision, “Item Cost” is defined as the factory invoice price for the item, the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) destination and delivery to dealer, and the FSA Administrative fee, minus the OEM government pricing concessions specific to this bid, all manufacturer incentives, discounts, rebates, concessions and holdbacks. As used in this provision, “Total Cost” is defined as the Item Cost, plus costs of dealer’s floorplan estimated operational expense, and costs of dealer for preparation, cleaning, and assembling, gas, and delivery to zone. As used in this provision, “Bid Price” is defined as the Total Cost and profit. As used in this provision, “Percent” is defined as the markup over Item Cost. Bid Prices will be used as the initial publish pricing for awarded items. As windows open up for next year’s model, the manufacturer changes price during the contract term, or as new items come to market, FSA CPP will work with Vendors to update the published pricing for such items based on the awarded Percent, within a reasonable period of time. Vendors may accept Purchase Orders for such items in accordance with these Terms & Conditions before submitting updated published pricing to FSA CPP. 2.12 PURSUIT, ADMINISTRATIVE, AND OTHER VEHICLES CONTRACT COST-PLUS- PERCENT PRICING Due to the changing market conditions, the FSA CPP has temporarily moved to a percent above cost, or “cost- plus”, model for the Pursuit, Administrative and Other Vehicles Contract. The cost-plus model allows for Vendors to sell items immediately when order windows open up for next year’s model, when the manufacturer changes price during the contract term, or when new items come to market. The Bid System provides each Vendors’ percent above cost at which the Vendor will sell such items. The Percent provided in the Bid System does not provide a percent discount for items bid. If Vendor fulfills a Purchase Order at other than published pricing, at purchasers’ request, Vendor must provide documentation substantiating the Item Cost, as defined in section 2.11. FLORIDA SHERIFFS ASSOCIATION Cooperative Purchasing Program Contract Terms and Conditions Page 26 2.13 OPTION PRICING – EQUIPMENT INVITATION TO BID The Bidder shall offer discount below Manufacturer’s Standard Retail Pricing (MSRP) or manufacturers published list price for any factory options included in the bid submission and quotes to purchasers, if awarded. FSA CPP requests Vendors include most frequently purchased scheduled, factory and aftermarket options in the bid. Options are intended to add or delete equipment or features from the Base Specification. Options can provide an upgrade or downgrade to a manufacturer’s model, such as a slightly different engine size or horsepower, and should not be made available for purchase separate from the base vehicle or equipment. Options may only provide a downgrade to a manufacturer’s model when specifically requested in a Purchase Order issued in accordance with the Terms & Conditions by a purchaser. Bidders shall NOT use options to create equipment that is entirely different than the FSA CPP Base Specification or are available as another specification bid on this Invitation to Bid. Bidder must use proper factory codes for all factory options. Options available through the factory may be bid and supplied to purchaser as “factory” options, unless otherwise requested in writing by the purchaser. The FSA CPP has the discretion to disqualify Bidders if the option pricing is excessive or if options listed are not available for the item bid. In order to determine if pricing is excessive, Bidders agree to provide documentation to FSA CPP to verify cost at any time during the solicitation process or during the contract term. This information is for comparison purposes only when determining if pricing is excessive and will not be published. Option pricing will include all costs of labor associated with the option and cost of labor should not be listed separately within the bid. For purposes of this bid, Emergency Lights and Sirens will require a separate pricing sheet upload in the Bid System. Section 2.15 contains specific instructions and exceptions for Emergency Lights and Sirens. If a Bidder will offer registration and title services as a fee for service, the Bidder must include the administrative fee as a separate option (i.e., line item) for each item bid. See Section 3.21 for additional details. Government imposed fees should not be included in this option pricing. No other additional charges or fees are admissible. If options are not available as a stand-alone option, the Bidder must indicate in their bid submission any option requiring the purchase of other options, and also indicate options that are a part or dependent of another option. Factory package options are allowable under this contract. Factory package options must be included in the options within the bid document and detailed specifically as to what components the package includes. When calculating the price for a manufacturer’s option requested in this bid that is not listed as an option in the manufacturer’s order guide (i.e., model or engine upgrade), the Bidder must calculate the option price as the net difference between vendor cost on the representative base vehicle and the total MSRP of the requested option modifying the vehicle. A Bidder may bid less than this price, but at no time charge more than the calculation provided here. The use of options to facilitate the sale of an alternate manufacturer’s product which is outside the scope of the written Base Specification will be determined nonresponsive and the bid will be rejected in whole or part by the FSA CPP. Example: Bidder CANNOT include option upgrades that result in the selling of a vehicle or truck on one specification that is offered as a separate specification in FLORIDA SHERIFFS ASSOCIATION Cooperative Purchasing Program Contract Terms and Conditions Page 27 the Invitation to Bid. For example, a Vendor who is awarded the bid for 25,500 lb. GVWR Cab & Chassis cannot upgrade this item through an add option to a 30,000 lb. GVWR Cab & Chassis in order to circumvent the bid award winner for the 30,000 lb. GVWR Cab & Chassis. Purchasers are encouraged to negotiate option pricing with Vendors. Discounts can be provided beyond option prices listed in the contract. The additional discounts for each add option shall be decided by the Vendor. The options will correspond to the specification or item number. Multiple options may be listed for each specification or item number bid. Therefore, Bidders that do not indicate the correct item number with the option information bid will not have options displayed for the item bid. If option pricing is not uploaded correctly, FSA CPP may require Bidders to correct the formatting of the options, but pricing may not be modified. Failure of the Bidder to make corrections may cause the bid to be rejected. If the Bidder wishes to offer credit to the purchaser for an option that is standard on the FSA CPP Base Specification, the Bidder should include the word “Credit” at the beginning of the description and continue to describe the option being credited. For example, “Credit: one key fob” that corresponds with the price the Bidder will credit the purchaser. Loose Equipment can be bid as an option and made available to purchasers for items originally purchased from this contract. For purposes of this provision, “Loose Equipment” is any item of equipment that attaches to the heavy equipment item(s) included in the awarded bid, such as different sized blades. Loose Equipment does not include accessories, such as additional keys. 2.14 OPTION PRICING – HEAVY TRUCKS AND BUSES AND PURSUIT, ADMINISTRATIVE AND OTHER VEHICLES INVITATIONS TO BID FSA CPP requests Bidders include most frequently purchased options in the Bid System. Option pricing must include the administrative fee. Bidders must provide a price for each option in addition to a percent below MSRP for factory-installed options or a percent above cost for other options. The FSA CPP has the discretion to disqualify Bidders if the option pricing is excessive. In order to determine if pricing is excessive, Bidders agree to provide documentation to FSA CPP to verify cost at any time during the solicitation process or during the contract term. This information is for comparison purposes and will not be published. Options are intended to add or delete equipment or features from the Base Specification. Options can provide an upgrade or downgrade to a manufacturer’s model, such as a slightly different engine size or horsepower, and should not be made available for purchase separate from the base vehicle or equipment. Options may only provide a downgrade to a manufacturer’s model when specifically requested in a Purchase Order issued in accordance with the Terms & Conditions by a purchaser. Bidders shall NOT use options to create an item that is available as another item bid on this Invitation to Bid. The use of options to facilitate the sale of an alternate manufacturer’s product which is outside the scope of the Base Specification will be determined nonresponsive and the bid will be rejected in whole or part by the FSA CPP. Bidders must disclose which options require the purchase of other options or are dependent on another option in their bid submission. Option pricing will include all costs of labor associated with the option and cost of labor should not be listed separately. Bidder must use proper manufacturer codes for factory options.

Factory package options included in the bid submission must detail what components the package includes. If a Bidder will offer registration and title services as a fee for service, government-imposed fees should be listed at the exact cost and shall not include the FSA administrative fee. If the Bidder wishes to offer credit to the purchaser for an option that is standard on the FSA CPP Base Specification, the Bidder should include the word “Credit” at the beginning of the description field and continue to describe the option being credited. For example, “Credit: one key fob” and enter the price the Bidder will credit the purchaser.

Responses that do not meet all requirements of this Invitation to Bid or fail to provide all required information, documents or materials may be rejected as nonresponsive. The FSA CPP will not request documentation or consider a Bidder’s social, political or ideological interests in determining if the Bidder is a responsible bidder.

In determining a responsible Bidder, the following factors may be considered: • Adequacy of facilities, staffing, and financial resources; • Previous experience with FSA contract or other similar government contracts; • Ability to provide excellent customer service, including on previous FSA contracts; and • Any other information relevant to the responsibility of a Bidder of which FSA CPP is aware.

FSA CPP reserves the right to determine which responses meet the requirements, specifications, Terms & Conditions of the solicitation, and which Bidders are responsive and responsible. FSA CPP further reserves the right to limit participation of Bidders who, in FSA CPP’s sole discretion, are determined to present responsibility concerns that call into question the Bidder’s ability to perform but that do not rise to the level of requiring rejection of the Bidder as non-responsible. 2.24 BASIS FOR AWARD For the Heavy Trucks and Buses, and Equipment Invitations to Bid, the FSA CPP shall make awards to the qualified, responsive and responsible Bidder(s) who submitted the lowest priced bid by item, manufacturer, and zone.

At its option, the FSA CPP may allow a Bidder to correct minor irregularities but is under no obligation to do so. In doing so, the FSA CPP may request a Bidder to provide clarifying information or additional materials to correct the irregularity.

In the event of such a change, FSA CPP will provide written notice to all Vendors of the method by which future quarterly reports are to be submitted. 3.24 ADMINISTRATIVE FEE The FSA CPP charges three quarters of one percent (.0075) to procure, process and administer the contract. The administrative fees are the contractual responsibility of each awarded Vendor. After receipt of payment from contract purchases, the Vendor shall remit all administrative fees to the FSA CPP no later than 15 calendar days after the end of each quarter. All fees payable to the FSA CPP during any given quarter will be accompanied and supported by a quarterly report. FLORIDA SHERIFFS ASSOCIATION Cooperative Purchasing Program Contract Terms and Conditions Page 40 The administrative fee will remain payable to FSA CPP and no relief from payment of the administrative fee, nor any additional charge to recoup the administrative fee, will be permitted if a Vendor fails to incorporate the administrative fee in its bid pricing. The administrative fee should never be listed as a separate line item on any purchase order or invoice. The administrative fee is based on the total purchase order amount of new items. This fee excludes any value given to purchasers for trade-ins. Trade-ins, extended warranties and other exchanges will not reduce or impact the fee calculation. The ACH form for electronic payment or wiring of funds is included in Appendix C. It is the preference of FSA CPP that all payments be electronically paid and submitted. If ACH is not available, checks for the administrative fee can be sent to: Florida Sheriffs Association Cooperative Purchasing Program 2617 Mahan Drive Tallahassee, FL 32308 3.25 LIQUIDATED DAMAGES The Vendor warrants that the item supplied to the purchaser shall conform in all respects to the standards set forth and the failure to comply with this condition will be considered as a breach of contract. Any liquidated damages levied because of inadequacies or failures to comply with these requirements shall be borne solely by the Vendor responsible for same. Failure to submit the administrative fee with accompanying quarterly reports to FSA CPP within 15 calendar days following the end of each quarter may result in the imposition of liquidated damages. Vendors failing to submit administrative fees and/or quarterly reports will incur liquidated damages in the amount of $25 for each calendar day that fees and reports are past due, beginning on the 16th day following the end of the quarter. If a civil action is initiated by the FSA to recover administrative fees or liquidated damages as set forth in this section, the prevailing party shall be entitled to its reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs incurred in the litigation. The venue shall lie in the Circuit Court for the Second Judicial Circuit in and for Leon County, Florida. When quarterly reports are late, liquidated damages are to be included in Vendor’s Quarterly Report and administrative fee submission. Liquidated damages that remain unpaid beyond 45 calendar days can result in FSA CPP, at its sole discretion, implementing contract compliance actions, including but not limited to, suspension, limited participation by specifications or zones, disqualification from future solicitations, or termination for cause pursuant to the Terms & Conditions. Schedule of Liquidated Damages Failure to submit quarterly report on time $25 per calendar day Failure to submit administrative fee on time $25 per calendar day Failure to report a Purchase Order to FSA CPP within 15 calendar days of the purchase order issue date $100 per Purchase Order Failure to Report Sales .0075 of the sales price plus 1.5% each month following the delivery date. FLORIDA SHERIFFS ASSOCIATION Cooperative Purchasing Program Contract Terms and Conditions Page 41 Vendor agrees and acknowledges that its failure to take any of the actions specified in the above schedule will result in liquidated damages to this contract. Vendor agrees and acknowledges that these liquidated damages are not intended to be and do not constitute a penalty and that these amounts are reasonably calculated to compensate the FSA for the damages that it will incur as a result of the Vendor’s failure to take the specified actions.

Questions received during the cone of silence date listed on the bid calendar will not be addressed, except as provided herein. Interpretation of the specifications or any solicitation documents will not be made to the Bidder verbally, and if any verbal clarifications are provided, they are without legal effect. FSA CPP will make every attempt to e-mail updates to registered Bidders. However, posting to the FSA CPP website or the Bid System constitutes proper notice of addenda. The FSA CPP shall issue a Formal Addendum if substantial changes that impact the submission of bids are required. Any such addenda shall be binding on the Bidder and shall become a part of the solicitation document. In the event of conflict with the original specifications, addenda shall govern to the extent specified. Subsequent Formal Addenda shall govern over prior Formal Addenda only to the extent specified. The FSA will not be responsible for any explanation or interpretation made verbally or in writing except those made through the posting of a Formal Addendum. The bid submission constitutes acknowledgment of addenda to the Bid Specifications. Bids that fail to account for the specification addenda shall be determined to be nonresponsive; however, the FSA CPP may waive this requirement when in its best interest. After the start of the contract term, FSA CPP will notify all Vendors of any addenda and will require acknowledgement of the new terms and conditions. If the Vendor does not agree to the new terms and conditions, the Vendor’s award can be removed or replaced by another Vendor or qualified responsive bidder. FLORIDA SHERIFFS ASSOCIATION Cooperative Purchasing Program Contract Terms and Conditions Page 12 1.24 SIGNED BID CONSIDERED AN OFFER The signed bid shall be considered an offer on the part of the Bidder, which offer shall be deemed accepted upon approval by the FSA CPP.

An electronic signature may be used and shall have the same force and effect as a written signature. 1.25 ASSIGNMENT OF CONTRACT No right or interest in this contract may be assigned, transferred, conveyed, sublet or otherwise disposed of, without prior written consent of the FSA CPP. If the original Vendor sells or transfers all assets or the entire portion of the assets used to perform this contract, a successor-in-interest must perform all obligations under this contract.

In the event a manufacturer reassigns the product line to an alternate company, the Vendor is required to notify the FSA CPP in writing of the change within 10 business days of the reassignment. If the Vendor is not already an approved FSA CPP Vendor, the alternate company is required to submit a Qualifications Packet to the FSA CPP to become an approved Vendor prior to conducting any qualified sales. FSA CPP may approve such assignments of existing or new vendors at its discretion. The Vendor is required to honor the contract pricing and all of the applicable Terms & Conditions throughout the remaining term of the contract. 1.26 TERMINATION OF PRODUCT LINE If a Vendor terminates a product line (manufacturer or brand), the Vendor is required to notify the FSA CPP within 10 business days of the decision not to retain the product line.

FLORIDA SHERIFFS ASSOCIATION Cooperative Purchasing Program Contract Terms and Conditions Page 13 1.28 VENDOR ABILITY TO PERFORM The FSA CPP may require Bidders to show proof that they have been designated as authorized representatives of a manufacturer or supplier, which is the actual source of supply. In these instances, the FSA CPP may also require information from the source of supply regarding the quality, packaging and characteristics of the products. Any conflicts between this material information provided by the source of supply and the information contained in the bid submission may render the bid nonresponsive. During the contract period, FSA CPP may review the Vendor’s record of performance and may require submission of supporting documentation to ensure that the Vendor is providing sufficient financial support, equipment and organization. If the FSA CPP determines that the Vendor no longer possesses the financial support, equipment and organization in order to comply with this section, FSA has the authority to immediately terminate the contract. By responding to this Invitation to Bid, the Vendor warrants that, to the best of his or her knowledge, there is no pending or threatened action, proceeding, or investigation, or any other legal or financial condition, that would in any way prohibit, restrain, or diminish the Vendor’s ability to satisfy the obligations of a resulting contract. The Vendor warrants that neither it nor any affiliate is currently on the convicted vendor list maintained pursuant to section 287.133 of the Florida Statues, or on any similar list maintained by any other state or the federal government.

All options must meet or exceed federal safety standards. FLORIDA SHERIFFS ASSOCIATION Cooperative Purchasing Program Contract Terms and Conditions Page 14 1.31 NONCONFORMANCE Items may be tested for conformance with specifications.

Such records shall be made available to FSA CPP during normal business hours within three business days of receipt of the written notice. FSA CPP may select the Vendor’s place of business or offsite location for the audit. The FSA CPP may also request the Vendor provide requested records via e-mail. FLORIDA SHERIFFS ASSOCIATION Cooperative Purchasing Program Contract Terms and Conditions Page 15 Vendor shall ensure FSA has these rights with Vendor’s employees, agents, assigns, successors, and third-party suppliers, and the obligations of these rights shall be explicitly included in any subcontracts or agreements formed between the Vendor and any sub-vendors to the extent that those subcontracts or agreements relate to fulfillment of the Vendor’s obligations to FSA. Professional fees, personnel costs and travel costs incurred by FSA under its authority to audit and not addressed elsewhere will be the responsibility of the FSA. However, if the audit identifies underreporting, overpricing or overcharges (of any nature) by the Vendor to FSA or a purchaser in excess of three percent (3%) of the total contract billings, the Vendor shall reimburse FSA for the total costs of the audit not to exceed $5,000. If the audit discovers substantive findings related to fraud, misrepresentation, or non‐performance, FSA may recoup all the costs of the audit work from the Vendor. Any adjustments or payments that must be made as a result of any such audit or inspection of the Vendor’s invoices or records shall be made within a reasonable amount of time (not to exceed 60 calendar days) from presentation of FSA’s findings to Vendor. FSA has the right to assess damages or seek reimbursements or refunds based on audit results. 1.35 LICENSES AND PERMITS The Bidder shall obtain and pay for all licenses, permits and inspection fees for this bid submission and any resulting contract. Where Vendors are required to enter or go onto FSA or purchaser property to deliver materials or perform work or services as a result of a bid award, the Vendor will assume the full duty, obligation and expense of obtaining all necessary licenses, permits and insurance. The Bidder must, by the time of award, be registered to do business in the State of Florida on SunBiz.gov. 1.36 PERFORMANCE BONDS Purchasers may request a performance bond from a Vendor. Performance bonds are recommended with pre- payment and will be at the expense of the requesting agency. Purchasers should determine the best practice in comparing performance bond expense against any prior discounts that may be available. 1.37 ELIMINATION FROM CONSIDERATION This Invitation to Bid shall not be awarded to any person or Bidder who has outstanding debts to the FSA, whether in relation to current or previous bid awards or for other business purposes. 1.38 INDEPENDENT PREPARATION A Bidder shall not, directly or indirectly, collude, consult, communicate or agree with any other Bidder as to any matter related to the bid each is submitting. Additionally, a Bidder shall not induce any other Bidder to modify, withdraw, submit, or not submit a bid. Bidders or Vendors who are found to have engaged in these acts will be considered nonresponsive and will be suspended or barred from bid participation. Any contract award resulting from these acts may be terminated for FLORIDA SHERIFFS ASSOCIATION Cooperative Purchasing Program Contract Terms and Conditions Page 16 default. Further, any such acts detected by the FSA may be reported to relevant law enforcement and/or prosecutorial agencies. Bidders may submit multiple bids without violating this provision if the bid submitted is not from the same manufacturer and product line. Dealers that share the same ownership may submit multiple bids without violating this provision if the Bidders are not in the same region featuring the same manufacturer and product line. 1.39 DEFAULT In case of default on the part of Vendor, the FSA CPP may take necessary steps to otherwise procure the products sought, including but not limited to procuring the products or services from the next highest ranked Bidder or from other sources. A defaulting Vendor may be held liable for costs incurred by the FSA in procuring replacement products. 1.40 PROTESTS AND ARBITRATION Any person who is adversely affected by the decision or intended decision to award shall file a “Notice of Protest” in writing to the FSA CPP within three (3) business days after the posting of the Intent to Award and shall file a formal written protest within five (5) business days after filing the Notice of Protest. Failure to file both a notice of protest and a formal written protest within the above referenced timelines shall constitute a waiver of proceedings. The burden is on the party protesting the award of the bid to establish grounds for invalidating the award(s). The formal written protest must state with particularity the facts and law upon which the protest is based. Options are for informational purposes only and will not serve as a basis for protest. Failure to do so will result in a denial of protest. Formal written protest which states with particularity the facts and law upon which the protest is based will be reviewed by FSA legal counsel for legal soundness and validity, and corrective action will be taken as needed contingent upon the validity of such claims. However, any additional time required and cost incurred by the FSA to substantiate a protesting party’s claim(s) beyond the normal scope of its legal review due to the vague or inconclusive nature of the protesting party’s filing will be reimbursable to the FSA and deducted from the protesting party’s bond or security which must accompany their filing. Any Bidder who files an action protesting a decision or intended decision pertaining to this contract shall post a bond, cashier’s check or money order payable to the Florida Sheriffs Association in the amount equal to ten percent of the item being protested. The bond, cashier’s check or money order must be filed at the time of filing the formal written protest or within the five (5) business day period allowed for filing the formal written protest. FSA CPP will provide the amount required within two (2) business days of the notice of protest received. This bond or security will be conditioned upon the payment of all costs which may be adjudged against the protesting party in a court of law and/or to reimburse the FSA for additional legal expenses incurred and required to substantiate the protesting party’s claim(s). Failure to post the bond or security requirement within the time allowed for filing will result in a denial of protest. The filing of the protest shall not stay the implementation of the bid award by the Florida Sheriffs Association. Should the unsuccessful Bidder(s) decide to appeal the decision of the FSA, they shall file a notice to FSA CPP within three (3) business days of the FSA bid protest decision regarding their intent to request arbitration. A demand for arbitration with the American Arbitration Association’s (AAA) commercial panel under its rules and regulations must be made within ten (10) business days of the FSA bid protest decision. Any person who files for an arbitration with the AAA shall post with the Florida Sheriffs Association at the time of filing the formal written arbitration request, a bond, cashier’s check or money order payable to the Florida Sheriffs Association in the FLORIDA SHERIFFS ASSOCIATION Cooperative Purchasing Program Contract Terms and Conditions Page 17 amount equal to ten percent of the product line being protested. This amount will be the same amount as the FSA CPP provided at the time of filing the initial protest. Failure to provide written notice to FSA CPP, file a demand for arbitration with the AAA, or failure to post the required bond and security requirement within the specified timelines shall constitute a waiver of arbitration proceedings. By responding to this procurement, the Bidder expressly agrees to the use of mandatory binding arbitration to resolve any appeals of the decision of the FSA, and any claims arising from or in any way relating to the procurement process, and expressly waives any and all rights that it may otherwise have to pursue such claims in any other forum, judicial or otherwise. If the party filing for arbitration does not prevail, it shall pay all costs, legal expenses and attorney fees of the prevailing party incurred in connection with the arbitration. However, if the filing party prevails, the parties shall share equally the fees and expenses of the arbitration and AAA and each shall bear the cost of their own attorney fees. The filing for arbitration shall not stay the implementation of the bid award by the Florida Sheriffs Association. 1.41 NONPERFORMANCE By virtue of the bid submission, Bidder acknowledges its obligation to sell items in all zones for which it is awarded. Upon award, failure of the Vendor to comply with these requirements may result in the imposition of liquidated damages of up to $1,000 per item, which amount the Vendor agrees is reasonable, or probation, suspension, termination or a combination thereof from current and future bids at the FSA CPP’s discretion. The Vendor shall at all times during the contract term remain responsive and responsible. In determining Vendor’s responsibility, the FSA CPP shall consider all information or evidence that demonstrates the Vendor’s ability or willingness to fully satisfy the requirements of the Terms & Conditions. Vendors that are not in compliance with any of the provisions of this contract can be assessed liquidated damages, suspended or terminated from the contract. The FSA CPP at its sole discretion may remove a noncompliant Vendor from future competitive bid solicitations; or take other actions including suspension from the contract until compliance issues are resolved, limit current or future vendor participation by items or zones, or other actions as determined by FSA CPP at its sole discretion. At FSA CPP’s discretion, Vendors may be required to develop corrective action plans to address contract compliance. Failure to abide by corrective action plans will result termination from the existing contract and future competitive bid solicitations at the discretion of the FSA CPP. In situations where there is evidence that the Vendor has engaged in egregious breaches of the contract with respect to either the FSA CPP and/or the purchaser, the contract can be terminated and the Vendor will be removed from future solicitations for a period of up to three (3) years, or a permanent ban from the bid process at the sole discretion of FSA CPP. Specific conditions for termination include, but are not limited to; failure to perform, refusal to accept orders during the contract period while manufacturer orders are still being accepted for current model year or the new year if the vehicle is price protected by the factory, charging amounts exceeding MSRP on factory or Vendor installed items and packages, requiring the purchase of additional options over and above the base vehicle as a condition of acceptance of order, providing aftermarket options where factory options are available without the consent of the purchaser, any misrepresentation of optional equipment or service as being factory that fails to meet the definition as described in this document, and any other practice deemed to be inconsistent with the intent of the contract. FLORIDA SHERIFFS ASSOCIATION Cooperative Purchasing Program Contract Terms and Conditions Page 18 Any Vendor presented with a valid Purchase Order consistent with Vendor bid quotes or other agreed upon terms and pricing is required by this contract to accept such purchase order and deliver the product. Purchase Orders must be fulfilled whether or not the Purchase Order includes options. The Vendor must deliver this product in accordance with the Terms & Conditions – regardless of whether doing so will provide the Vendor with a profit or loss. Failure to deliver the item may result in the purchaser seeking damages for the difference of cost to issue a new Purchase Order with another Vendor plus any legal fees and damages that may be incurred in the process to facilitate a completed order. Additionally, FSA CPP may seek damages for nonpayment of administrative fees, to which FSA CPP is entitled, according to Section 3.28, and any attorney’s fees incurred in the recovery of these damages. 1.42 SEVERABILITY In the event any provision of this contract is held to be unenforceable for any reason, the unenforceability thereof shall not affect the remainder of the contract, which shall remain in full force and effect and enforceable in accordance with its terms. 1.43 TERMINATION FOR CAUSE If through any cause within the reasonable control of the Vendor, it shall fail to fulfill in a timely manner, or otherwise violate any of the terms of this contract, the FSA CPP shall have the right to terminate the services remaining to be performed. Written notice of the deficiencies shall be given to the Vendor and unless the deficiencies are corrected within 10 business days, the contract may be terminated for cause immediately. The right to exercise the option to terminate for cause shall be in the sole discretion of the FSA CPP, and the failure to exercise such right shall not be deemed to constitute a waiver of this right. In the event of a termination for cause, the purchaser shall compensate the successful Bidder in accordance with the contract for all services performed by the successful Bidder prior to termination, net of any costs incurred by the purchaser and FSA as a consequence of the default. Notwithstanding the above, the Vendor shall not be relieved of liability to the FSA for damages sustained by the FSA by virtue of any breach of the contract by the Vendor, and the FSA CPP may reasonably withhold payments to the Vendor for the purposes of offset until such time as the exact amount of damages due the FSA from the Vendor is determined. 1.44 TERMINATION WITHOUT CAUSE The FSA CPP can terminate the contract in whole or part without cause by giving written notice to the Vendor of such termination, which shall become effective 30 calendar days following receipt by Vendor of such notice. In the event of a termination without cause, all finished or unfinished documents and other materials shall be properly delivered to the FSA CPP. The Vendor shall not furnish any product after it receives the notice of termination, except as necessary to complete the continued portion of the contract, if any. The Vendor shall not be entitled to recover any lost profits that the Vendor expected to earn on the balance of the contract or cancellation charges. FLORIDA SHERIFFS ASSOCIATION Cooperative Purchasing Program Contract Terms and Conditions Page 19 Any payments to the Vendor shall be only to the total extent of the purchaser liability for goods or services delivered prior to the date of notice to terminate the contract. 1.45 CONTRACT ADVERTISEMENT AND USE OF FSA LOGO The FSA logo is an official logo of the Florida Sheriffs Association designed to promote the program.

The Base Item Specifications are contained in the FSA CPP Bid System, may be requested from FSA CPP, and are retained within FSA CPP’s archive. As part of the bid submission, Bidders will be required to provide confirmation that the item bid meets the FSA CPP Base Specification. FSA CPP may reject bids that fail to provide confirmation that the item(s) bid meet the FSA CPP Bid Specifications. FSA CPP develops the specifications with subject matter experts and publicly available information. However, FSA CPP does not have access to full details from the manufacturer and relies on Bidders to assist in this process. Bidders should immediately notify the FSA CPP of any inaccuracies in the specifications. All notifications of inaccuracies must be in writing. If awarded a contract, Vendor(s) must offer and supply an item that either meets or exceeds all the requirements included in the applicable Bid Specifications, unless a purchaser specifically issues a Purchase Order for a base item and Option that differs from the Base Specifications. Failure of a Bidder to comply with these provisions will result in Bidders being held responsible for all costs required to bring the item into compliance with the contract specifications. 2.05 SEALED BIDS For purposes of this solicitation, a sealed bid is considered a bid submitted using the FSA CPP Bid System. 2.06 MISTAKES Bidders are expected to examine the Base Item specifications, delivery schedules, bid prices and all information pertaining to servicing this contract before submitting a bid. Failure to do so will be at the Bidder's risk. 2.07 EXCEPTIONS Any requested exceptions, deviations, or contingencies a Bidder may have to the Terms & Conditions must be documented in Bidder’s submission. Exceptions to the Base Specifications at the time of the bid submission shall reference the item number, make and model. FSA CPP has the discretion to grant or deny, in whole or in part, the Bidder’s requested exception, deviation or contingency to the specifications or Terms &Conditions. Bidder acknowledges that the bid may be disqualified if FSA CPP rejects the proposed exceptions. 2.08 EQUIVALENTS Prior to the opening of the Bid System, Bidders may request item equivalents. The Bidder must submit the manufacturer name and model number (or product identifier) of each equivalent requested to FSA CPP. Complete, FLORIDA SHERIFFS ASSOCIATION Cooperative Purchasing Program Contract Terms and Conditions Page 24 descriptive, technical literature should demonstrate that the equivalent conforms with specification. If a bid uses equivalents without prior approval, the bid may be disqualified. 2.09 MANDATORY PRE-BID MEETING Prospective Bidders are required to attend or participate in the mandatory Pre-Bid Meeting. The Pre-Bid Meeting is designed for vendors, the Fleet Advisory Committee and the FSA CPP to clarify questions on the Terms & Conditions and to confirm all Base Item specifications. Questions relating to the items, specifications, the bid process, or award can be asked at the Pre-Bid Meeting. Bidders have the opportunity to suggest technical modifications or corrections before the Base Item specifications are finalized. FSA CPP reserves the right to grant attendance exceptions to the mandatory meeting if the Bidder has requested authorization, agrees in writing to meet all the Terms & Conditions without exception and further waives their right to protest the bid process in its entirety or any portion thereof. 2.10 PRICES QUOTED – HEAVY TRUCKS AND BUSES AND EQUIPMENT INVITATIONS TO BID Items and options should reflect the most complete price and be below MSRP and at a minimum should cover the cost of the item or option bid. Prices quoted in the bid submission should reflect the final amount the Bidder can expect to receive for payment for the items bid for the duration of the contract, unless otherwise provided in the contract. Prices submitted as indicated in the sealed bid are final. Bidders acknowledge that prices quoted will be valid for a period of sixty (60) calendar days from the date of bid opening. Each item, make, and model must be priced and bid separately. Prices must be inclusive of all the components included in the Base Specification. Prices bid must include the administrative fee FSA CPP charges to administer the contract, as outlined in these Terms & Conditions. The administrative fee is three quarters of one percent (.0075). Prices bid must be at least cost, be Free On Board (FOB) destination, and must include delivery to the purchaser. Upon award, the Vendor has the authority to offer additional discounts based on prompt payment, quantity, as well as additional manufacturer or vendor discounts. 2.11 PRICES QUOTED – PURSUIT, ADMINISTRATIVE AND OTHER VEHICLES INVITATION TO BID Due to the changing market conditions, the FSA CPP has temporarily moved to a percent above cost, or “cost- plus”, model for the Pursuit, Administrative and Other Vehicles Contract. The cost-plus model allows for Vendors to sell items immediately when order windows open up for next year’s model, when the manufacturer changes price during the contract term, or when new items come to market. Bidders shall provide a Bid Price and a Percent for each item bid. The Bid Price will be used to evaluate the lowest, responsive and responsible Bidder for each item and zone. The Percent will be used under an awarded contract to determine the cost-plus pricing for new year’s models, when the manufacturer changes price during the contract Page 25 FLORIDA SHERIFFS ASSOCIATION Cooperative Purchasing Program Contract Terms and Conditions term, or when new items come to market. The FSA CPP will use the percent feature of the Bid System as the field to capture the percent above cost that the Vendor can expect to receive from the purchaser for the purchase of an awarded item. The FSA CPP has the discretion to disqualify Bidders if the proposed Percent is excessive. In order to determine if Percent is excessive, FSA will compare the Percents proposed by Bidders for each item in each zone. Prices and Percents bid for items and options should reflect the most complete item price, be below MSRP, and at a minimum should at least cover the cost of the item or option bid. Prices and Percents bid must be at least "Item Cost", be Free On Board (FOB) destination, and must include delivery to the purchaser. As used in this provision, “Item Cost” is defined as the factory invoice price for the item, the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) destination and delivery to dealer, and the FSA Administrative fee, minus the OEM government pricing concessions specific to this bid, all manufacturer incentives, discounts, rebates, concessions and holdbacks. As used in this provision, “Total Cost” is defined as the Item Cost, plus costs of dealer’s floorplan estimated operational expense, and costs of dealer for preparation, cleaning, and assembling, gas, and delivery to zone. As used in this provision, “Bid Price” is defined as the Total Cost and profit. As used in this provision, “Percent” is defined as the markup over Item Cost. Bid Prices will be used as the initial publish pricing for awarded items. As windows open up for next year’s model, the manufacturer changes price during the contract term, or as new items come to market, FSA CPP will work with Vendors to update the published pricing for such items based on the awarded Percent, within a reasonable period of time. Vendors may accept Purchase Orders for such items in accordance with these Terms & Conditions before submitting updated published pricing to FSA CPP. 2.12 PURSUIT, ADMINISTRATIVE, AND OTHER VEHICLES CONTRACT COST-PLUS- PERCENT PRICING Due to the changing market conditions, the FSA CPP has temporarily moved to a percent above cost, or “cost- plus”, model for the Pursuit, Administrative and Other Vehicles Contract. The cost-plus model allows for Vendors to sell items immediately when order windows open up for next year’s model, when the manufacturer changes price during the contract term, or when new items come to market. The Bid System provides each Vendors’ percent above cost at which the Vendor will sell such items. The Percent provided in the Bid System does not provide a percent discount for items bid. If Vendor fulfills a Purchase Order at other than published pricing, at purchasers’ request, Vendor must provide documentation substantiating the Item Cost, as defined in section 2.11. FLORIDA SHERIFFS ASSOCIATION Cooperative Purchasing Program Contract Terms and Conditions Page 26 2.13 OPTION PRICING – EQUIPMENT INVITATION TO BID The Bidder shall offer discount below Manufacturer’s Standard Retail Pricing (MSRP) or manufacturers published list price for any factory options included in the bid submission and quotes to purchasers, if awarded. FSA CPP requests Vendors include most frequently purchased scheduled, factory and aftermarket options in the bid. Options are intended to add or delete equipment or features from the Base Specification. Options can provide an upgrade or downgrade to a manufacturer’s model, such as a slightly different engine size or horsepower, and should not be made available for purchase separate from the base vehicle or equipment. Options may only provide a downgrade to a manufacturer’s model when specifically requested in a Purchase Order issued in accordance with the Terms & Conditions by a purchaser. Bidders shall NOT use options to create equipment that is entirely different than the FSA CPP Base Specification or are available as another specification bid on this Invitation to Bid. Bidder must use proper factory codes for all factory options. Options available through the factory may be bid and supplied to purchaser as “factory” options, unless otherwise requested in writing by the purchaser. The FSA CPP has the discretion to disqualify Bidders if the option pricing is excessive or if options listed are not available for the item bid. In order to determine if pricing is excessive, Bidders agree to provide documentation to FSA CPP to verify cost at any time during the solicitation process or during the contract term. This information is for comparison purposes only when determining if pricing is excessive and will not be published. Option pricing will include all costs of labor associated with the option and cost of labor should not be listed separately within the bid. For purposes of this bid, Emergency Lights and Sirens will require a separate pricing sheet upload in the Bid System. Section 2.15 contains specific instructions and exceptions for Emergency Lights and Sirens. If a Bidder will offer registration and title services as a fee for service, the Bidder must include the administrative fee as a separate option (i.e., line item) for each item bid. See Section 3.21 for additional details. Government imposed fees should not be included in this option pricing. No other additional charges or fees are admissible. If options are not available as a stand-alone option, the Bidder must indicate in their bid submission any option requiring the purchase of other options, and also indicate options that are a part or dependent of another option. Factory package options are allowable under this contract. Factory package options must be included in the options within the bid document and detailed specifically as to what components the package includes. When calculating the price for a manufacturer’s option requested in this bid that is not listed as an option in the manufacturer’s order guide (i.e., model or engine upgrade), the Bidder must calculate the option price as the net difference between vendor cost on the representative base vehicle and the total MSRP of the requested option modifying the vehicle. A Bidder may bid less than this price, but at no time charge more than the calculation provided here. The use of options to facilitate the sale of an alternate manufacturer’s product which is outside the scope of the written Base Specification will be determined nonresponsive and the bid will be rejected in whole or part by the FSA CPP. Example: Bidder CANNOT include option upgrades that result in the selling of a vehicle or truck on one specification that is offered as a separate specification in FLORIDA SHERIFFS ASSOCIATION Cooperative Purchasing Program Contract Terms and Conditions Page 27 the Invitation to Bid. For example, a Vendor who is awarded the bid for 25,500 lb. GVWR Cab & Chassis cannot upgrade this item through an add option to a 30,000 lb. GVWR Cab & Chassis in order to circumvent the bid award winner for the 30,000 lb. GVWR Cab & Chassis. Purchasers are encouraged to negotiate option pricing with Vendors. Discounts can be provided beyond option prices listed in the contract. The additional discounts for each add option shall be decided by the Vendor. The options will correspond to the specification or item number. Multiple options may be listed for each specification or item number bid. Therefore, Bidders that do not indicate the correct item number with the option information bid will not have options displayed for the item bid. If option pricing is not uploaded correctly, FSA CPP may require Bidders to correct the formatting of the options, but pricing may not be modified. Failure of the Bidder to make corrections may cause the bid to be rejected. If the Bidder wishes to offer credit to the purchaser for an option that is standard on the FSA CPP Base Specification, the Bidder should include the word “Credit” at the beginning of the description and continue to describe the option being credited. For example, “Credit: one key fob” that corresponds with the price the Bidder will credit the purchaser. Loose Equipment can be bid as an option and made available to purchasers for items originally purchased from this contract. For purposes of this provision, “Loose Equipment” is any item of equipment that attaches to the heavy equipment item(s) included in the awarded bid, such as different sized blades. Loose Equipment does not include accessories, such as additional keys. 2.14 OPTION PRICING – HEAVY TRUCKS AND BUSES AND PURSUIT, ADMINISTRATIVE AND OTHER VEHICLES INVITATIONS TO BID FSA CPP requests Bidders include most frequently purchased options in the Bid System. Option pricing must include the administrative fee. Bidders must provide a price for each option in addition to a percent below MSRP for factory-installed options or a percent above cost for other options. The FSA CPP has the discretion to disqualify Bidders if the option pricing is excessive. In order to determine if pricing is excessive, Bidders agree to provide documentation to FSA CPP to verify cost at any time during the solicitation process or during the contract term. This information is for comparison purposes and will not be published. Options are intended to add or delete equipment or features from the Base Specification. Options can provide an upgrade or downgrade to a manufacturer’s model, such as a slightly different engine size or horsepower, and should not be made available for purchase separate from the base vehicle or equipment. Options may only provide a downgrade to a manufacturer’s model when specifically requested in a Purchase Order issued in accordance with the Terms & Conditions by a purchaser. Bidders shall NOT use options to create an item that is available as another item bid on this Invitation to Bid. The use of options to facilitate the sale of an alternate manufacturer’s product which is outside the scope of the Base Specification will be determined nonresponsive and the bid will be rejected in whole or part by the FSA CPP. Bidders must disclose which options require the purchase of other options or are dependent on another option in their bid submission. Option pricing will include all costs of labor associated with the option and cost of labor should not be listed separately. Bidder must use proper manufacturer codes for factory options. Options available through the factory should be bid and supplied to purchaser as factory options, unless otherwise requested in writing by the purchaser. Factory FLORIDA SHERIFFS ASSOCIATION Cooperative Purchasing Program Contract Terms and Conditions Page 28 package options are permitted under this contract. Factory package options included in the bid submission must detail what components the package includes. If a Bidder will offer registration and title services as a fee for service, government-imposed fees should be listed at the exact cost and shall not include the FSA administrative fee. If the Bidder wishes to offer credit to the purchaser for an option that is standard on the FSA CPP Base Specification, the Bidder should include the word “Credit” at the beginning of the description field and continue to describe the option being credited. For example, “Credit: one key fob” and enter the price the Bidder will credit the purchaser. For purposes of this bid, Emergency Lights and Sirens will require a separate pricing sheet and option upload in the Bid System. Section 2.15 contains specific instructions and exceptions for Emergency Lights and Sirens. 2.15 EMERGENCY LIGHTS AND SIRENS Under Florida Statute 316.003(1), authorized emergency vehicles are defined as: Vehicles of the fire department (fire patrol), police vehicles, and such ambulances and emergency vehicles of municipal departments, public service corporations operated by private corporations, the Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission, the Department of Environmental Protection, the Department of Health, the Department of Transportation, and the Department of Corrections as are designated or authorized by their respective departments or the chief of police of an incorporated city or any sheriff of any of the various counties. Bidders that will provide or contract to provide emergency light and siren installation must only use installers that possess a current Emergency Vehicle Technician Certification, or an approved equivalent. FSA CPP may request certificates for a Vendor’s installers at any time during the contract term. Labor may be charged for the installation of emergency lights and sirens.

In order to be deemed a responsive bidder, the bid must conform in all material respects to the requirements stated in the Invitation to Bid. As set forth in Section 2.26, FSA CPP reserves the right to waive or allow a Bidder to correct minor irregularities. 2.23 RESPONSIBLE BIDDER CRITERIA Bids will be evaluated to determine if qualifications and contract requirements are met. Responses that do not meet all requirements of this Invitation to Bid or fail to provide all required information, documents or materials may be rejected as nonresponsive. The FSA CPP will not request documentation or consider a Bidder’s social, political or ideological interests in determining if the Bidder is a responsible bidder. FSA CPP will not give preference to a Bidder based on the Bidder’s social, political, or ideological interests. Bidders whose responses, past performance, or current status do not reflect the capability, integrity, or reliability to fully and in good faith perform the requirements of the contract may be rejected as non-responsible. In determining a responsible Bidder, the following factors may be considered: • Adequacy of facilities, staffing, and financial resources; • Previous experience with FSA contract or other similar government contracts; • Ability to provide excellent customer service, including on previous FSA contracts; and • Any other information relevant to the responsibility of a Bidder of which FSA CPP is aware. In addition to the requirements set forth by these Terms & Conditions, FSA CPP reserves the right to request staffing, performance and financial information from any Bidder during the evaluation process. FSA CPP reserves the right to determine which responses meet the requirements, specifications, Terms & Conditions of the solicitation, and which Bidders are responsive and responsible. FSA CPP further reserves the right to limit participation of Bidders who, in FSA CPP’s sole discretion, are determined to present responsibility concerns that call into question the Bidder’s ability to perform but that do not rise to the level of requiring rejection of the Bidder as non-responsible. 2.24 BASIS FOR AWARD For the Heavy Trucks and Buses, and Equipment Invitations to Bid, the FSA CPP shall make awards to the qualified, responsive and responsible Bidder(s) who submitted the lowest priced bid by item, manufacturer, and zone.

A minor irregularity is a variation from the Terms & Conditions of this procurement that does not affect the price of the bid or give the Bidder a substantial advantage over other Bidders and thereby restrict or stifle competition and does not adversely impact the interests of the FSA or the purchasers. At its option, the FSA CPP may allow a Bidder to correct minor irregularities but is under no obligation to do so. In doing so, the FSA CPP may request a Bidder to provide clarifying information or additional materials to correct the irregularity.

FSA CPP will request awarded Vendors submit pricing and will evaluate the responses prior to authorizing awarded Vendors to offer the new item. 3.05 CONTRACT EXTENSION Contract Extension The contract may be extended by mutual agreement for up to two (2) additional years, on a year-to-year basis. FSA CPP reserves the right to execute a contract extension or to allow the contract to fully or partially terminate and readvertise for bids, whichever is in the best interest of FSA. The Vendor may request price adjustments for contract extensions as provided for herein. If no request is received from the Vendor, the FSA CPP will assume that the Vendor has agreed that the optional term may be exercised without a price adjustment. Any adjustment request received after the execution of an extension may not be considered unless otherwise provided for in this contract. Month-to-Month Continuation In the event a new contract is not active at the time of this contract’s expiration, this contract’s terms and conditions shall extend on a month-to-month basis and shall not constitute an implied extension of the contract. Such a month-to-month continuation shall be upon the compensation and payment provided herein. FLORIDA SHERIFFS ASSOCIATION Cooperative Purchasing Program Contract Terms and Conditions Page 34 3.06 PRICE ADJUSTMENT In addition to the cost-plus-percent pricing adjustments available for the Pursuit, Administrative, and Other Vehicles contract, the Terms & Conditions provide the following options for price adjustments: • Annual Price Adjustments • Changes to Manufacturer Production or Design • Manufacturer Certified Adjustments • Equitable Adjustments Price adjustment requests must clearly substantiate a need to increase or decrease the price. Price adjustments will not be considered if Vendors are delinquent on administrative fee payments or have outstanding quarterly reports. Annual Price Adjustment The FSA CPP may consider annual price adjustments due to: • Changes in the Producer Price Index (PPI) as published by the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS); or • As a result of changes to national or state standards that require substantial price adjustments. FSA CPP may consider other documentation related to the change to national or state standards but is not obligated to grant price changes without literature from the manufacturer. The FSA CPP will consider the request and will make a final determination on the change in price. Changes to Manufacturer Production or Design Significant changes by the manufacturer to the production of and specification design may initiate a price adjustment request. FSA CPP will consider order dates, production factors, model year, or other conditions, as well as the replacement or complete redesign of items. Vendors must provide documentation from the manufacturer. Manufacturer Certified Adjustments Vendors must provide documentation from the manufacturer to FSA CPP that shows the additional costs or price adjustments imposed by the manufacturer and substantiate the need for a related price adjustment for this contract. Equitable Adjustments The FSA CPP may make an equitable adjustment to the contract terms or pricing at its discretion. 3.07 CONDITIONS It is understood and agreed that any item offered or shipped as a result of this contract shall be the most current model offered.

Purchase Orders received by the Vendor ten (10) business days prior to the final order date must be accepted and entered into the order system with the manufacturer. Purchase Orders issued and received after the production cutoff date will be subject to availability. In this case, the Vendor and manufacturer have the discretion whether to choose to provide next year’s model at current year’s prices until the end of the contract term. If the manufacturer cutoff date is during the term of the contract and will affect the purchaser’s ability to obtain the items, FSA CPP may consider substitutions from the same manufacturer. 3.09 FACILITIES The FSA CPP reserves the right to inspect the Vendor’s facilities at any time with prior notice. 3.10 PURSUIT RATED VEHICLES & MOTORCYCLES Vehicles in this category have been reviewed by one or more of the nationally recognized authorities on Police Vehicle Testing Program/Evaluation.

Any additional information needed to complete this form should be obtained by the Vendor from the purchaser. While it is recommended that an agency purchase from the zone which is closest to their location, it is not mandatory to do so. If the purchaser determines that a Vendor in another zone can better serve the purchaser’s needs, the purchaser may order from a Vendor in another zone. Vendors that provide awarded items outside of an awarded zone may upon mutual agreement between the Vendor and the purchaser charge a delivery fee. If a Vendor receives a purchase order for an item for which they were not awarded, the Vendor must notify the purchaser and return the purchase order to the purchaser within three (3) business days. The Vendor must submit electronic copies of Purchase Orders within fifteen (15) calendar days of the Purchase Order issue date. Emails shall be sent to coop@flsheriffs.org.

Any delivery accomplished by driving the vehicle must be supervised and the driver must comply with manufacturer’s break-in requirements and all applicable traffic laws. Any delivery accomplished by driving a pursuit-rated vehicle must use an “OUT OF SERVICE” cover on light bars. Deliveries in excess of 350 miles shall be made by transport, or otherwise approved by the purchaser, however, this requirement shall not apply to incomplete chassis.

Such service or adjustments shall be initiated by the Vendor within 48 hours after notification by a purchaser, not to include weekends and holidays. Delivery will not be considered complete until all services or adjustments are satisfactory, and the item is redelivered or repaired. The cost of any transportation required to address the defect shall be the responsibility of the Vendor until the items are satisfactory and accepted by the purchaser. 3.20 INSPECTION AND ACCEPTANCE Final acceptance shall be given only after the purchaser inspects or confirms the item meets contract specifications. Delivery of an item to a purchaser does not constitute acceptance for the purpose of payment.

Quarterly reports are due no later than the 15th day of the month following the end of the quarter. Quarterly reports shall follow the schedule below for the duration of the contract. If a contract extension is executed, the quarterly reports will maintain the same schedule for future reporting periods.

If a Vendor has no sales within a quarter, the Vendor shall indicate “No sales this quarter” on the top row of the sales worksheet. If the Vendor has no deliveries in a given quarter, the Vendor shall indicate “No deliveries this quarter” on the top row of the delivery worksheet. FSA CPP reserves the right to modify the procedure for submitting quarterly reports during the term of the contract. Such a change shall not materially modify the substance of the information to be reported but may change the method by which future quarterly reports are to be submitted. In the event of such a change, FSA CPP will provide written notice to all Vendors of the method by which future quarterly reports are to be submitted. 3.24 ADMINISTRATIVE FEE The FSA CPP charges three quarters of one percent (.0075) to procure, process and administer the contract. The administrative fees are the contractual responsibility of each awarded Vendor. After receipt of payment from contract purchases, the Vendor shall remit all administrative fees to the FSA CPP no later than 15 calendar days after the end of each quarter. All fees payable to the FSA CPP during any given quarter will be accompanied and supported by a quarterly report. FLORIDA SHERIFFS ASSOCIATION Cooperative Purchasing Program Contract Terms and Conditions Page 40 The administrative fee will remain payable to FSA CPP and no relief from payment of the administrative fee, nor any additional charge to recoup the administrative fee, will be permitted if a Vendor fails to incorporate the administrative fee in its bid pricing. The administrative fee should never be listed as a separate line item on any purchase order or invoice. The administrative fee is based on the total purchase order amount of new items. This fee excludes any value given to purchasers for trade-ins. Trade-ins, extended warranties and other exchanges will not reduce or impact the fee calculation. The ACH form for electronic payment or wiring of funds is included in Appendix C. It is the preference of FSA CPP that all payments be electronically paid and submitted. If ACH is not available, checks for the administrative fee can be sent to: Florida Sheriffs Association Cooperative Purchasing Program 2617 Mahan Drive Tallahassee, FL 32308 3.25 LIQUIDATED DAMAGES The Vendor warrants that the item supplied to the purchaser shall conform in all respects to the standards set forth and the failure to comply with this condition will be considered as a breach of contract. Any liquidated damages levied because of inadequacies or failures to comply with these requirements shall be borne solely by the Vendor responsible for same. Failure to submit the administrative fee with accompanying quarterly reports to FSA CPP within 15 calendar days following the end of each quarter may result in the imposition of liquidated damages. Vendors failing to submit administrative fees and/or quarterly reports will incur liquidated damages in the amount of $25 for each calendar day that fees and reports are past due, beginning on the 16th day following the end of the quarter. If a civil action is initiated by the FSA to recover administrative fees or liquidated damages as set forth in this section, the prevailing party shall be entitled to its reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs incurred in the litigation. The venue shall lie in the Circuit Court for the Second Judicial Circuit in and for Leon County, Florida. When quarterly reports are late, liquidated damages are to be included in Vendor’s Quarterly Report and administrative fee submission. Liquidated damages that remain unpaid beyond 45 calendar days can result in FSA CPP, at its sole discretion, implementing contract compliance actions, including but not limited to, suspension, limited participation by specifications or zones, disqualification from future solicitations, or termination for cause pursuant to the Terms & Conditions. Schedule of Liquidated Damages Failure to submit quarterly report on time $25 per calendar day Failure to submit administrative fee on time $25 per calendar day Failure to report a Purchase Order to FSA CPP within 15 calendar days of the purchase order issue date $100 per Purchase Order Failure to Report Sales .0075 of the sales price plus 1.5% each month following the delivery date.

SOURCEWELL Sourcewell is a State of Minnesota local government unit and service cooperative created under the laws of the State of Minnesota (Minnesota Statutes Section 123A.21) that facilitates a competitive public solicitation and contract award process for the benefit of its 50,000+ participating entities across the United States and Canada. Sourcewell’s solicitation process complies with State of Minnesota law and policies, conforms to Canadian trade agreements (including Canadian Free Trade Agreement, Ontario-Quebec Trade and Cooperation Agreement, and Canada-European Union Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement, as applicable), and results in cooperative purchasing solutions from which Sourcewell’s Participating Entities procure equipment, products, and services. Cooperative purchasing provides participating entities and suppliers increased administrative efficiencies and the power of combined purchasing volume that result in overall cost savings. At times, Sourcewell also partners with other purchasing cooperatives to combine the purchasing volume of their membership into a single solicitation and contract expanding the reach of contracted suppliers’ potential pool of end users. Sourcewell uses a website-based platform, the Sourcewell Procurement Portal, through which all proposals to this RFP must be submitted. B.

Participating Entities typically access contracted equipment, products, or services through a purchase order issued directly to the contracted supplier. A Participating Entity may request additional terms or conditions related to a purchase. Use of Sourcewell contracts is voluntary and Participating Entities retain the right to obtain similar equipment, products, or services from other sources. To meet Participating Entities’ needs, Sourcewell broadly publishes public notice of all solicitation opportunities, including this RFP. In addition, where applicable, other purchasing cooperatives and procurement officials receive notice and are encouraged to re-post the solicitation opportunity. Proof of publication will be available at the conclusion of the solicitation process. II. SOLICITATION DETAILS A. SOLUTIONS-BASED SOLICITATION This RFP and contract award process is a solutions-based solicitation; meaning that Sourcewell is seeking equipment, products, or services that meet the general requirements of the scope of this RFP and that are commonly desired or are required by law or industry standards. Rev. 3/2022 Sourcewell RFP #092222 Electrical Energy Power Generation Equipment with Related Parts, Supplies, and Services Page 4 B. REQUESTED EQUIPMENT, PRODUCTS, OR SERVICES It is expected that proposers will offer a wide array of equipment, products, or services at lower prices and with better value than what they would ordinarily offer to a single government entity, a school district, or a regional cooperative. 1. Sourcewell is seeking proposals for Electrical Energy Power Generation Equipment with Related Parts, Supplies, and Services, including, but not limited to: a. Stationary electrical generation systems, backup or standby generator sets, mobile and ground power units, and trailer mounted generators; b. Parts and accessories, including enclosures, fuel tanks, automatic transfer switches, paralleling equipment, switch gears, connection boxes, controls, alarm modules, batteries, block heaters, and networking tools; c. Related services, including design, customization, engineering, commissioning, installation, delivery, maintenance, repair, training and operation, service and maintenance agreements, decommissioning and repurposing, custom shop work, and rental services. 2. The primary focus of this solicitation is on electrical energy power generation equipment. Proposers may include related parts, accessories, or services, as described in 1. b. and 1. c. to the extent that these solutions are complementary to the power generation solutions being offered in 1. a. Proposers may include no more than a complementary or incidental offering from renewable energy sources such as wind, solar and microgrid solutions. This solicitation should NOT be construed to include “services-only” solutions. 3. This solicitation does not include those equipment, products, or services covered under categories included in contracts currently maintained by Sourcewell: a. Medium Duty and Compact Construction Equipment with Related Attachments, Accessories, and Supplies (RFP ##040319) b. Portable Construction Equipment with Related Accessories and Attachments (RFP #041719) c. Equipment Rental with Related Services (RFP#062320) d. Facility MRO (Maintenance, Repair & Operations), Industrial & Building Supplies with Related Equipment, Accessories, Supplies & Services (RFP #091422) Proposers may include related equipment, accessories, and services to the extent that these solutions are complementary to the equipment, products, or service(s) being proposed. Rev. 3/2022 Sourcewell RFP #092222 Electrical Energy Power Generation Equipment with Related Parts, Supplies, and Services Page 5 Generally, the solutions for Participating Entities are turn-key solutions, providing a combination of equipment, products and services, delivery, and installation to a properly operating status. However, equipment-only or products-only solutions may be appropriate for situations where Participating Entities possess the ability, either in-house or through local third- party contractors, to properly install and bring to operation the equipment or products being proposed. Sourcewell prefers suppliers that provide a sole source of responsibility for the equipment, products, and services provided under a resulting contract. If proposer is including the equipment, products, and services of its subsidiary entities, the proposer must also identify all included subsidiaries in its proposal. If proposer requires the use of distributors, dealers, resellers, or subcontractors to provide the equipment, products, or services, the proposal must address how the equipment, products or services will be provided to Participating Entities, and describe the network of distributors, dealers, resellers, and/or subcontractors that will be available to serve Participating Entities under a resulting contract. Sourcewell encourages suppliers to offer the broadest possible selection of equipment, products, and services being proposed over the largest possible geographic area and to the largest possible cross-section of Sourcewell current and future Participating Entities. C. REQUIREMENTS It is expected that proposers have knowledge of all applicable industry standards, laws, and regulations and possess an ability to market and distribute the equipment, products, or services to Participating Entities. 1. Safety Requirements. All items proposed must comply with current applicable safety or regulatory standards or codes. 2. Deviation from Industry Standard. Deviations from industry standards must be identified with an explanation of how the equipment, products, and services will provide equivalent function, coverage, performance, and/or related services. 3. Equipment and Products. Proposed equipment and products must be for new, current model; however, proposer may offer certain close-out equipment or products, and used or refurbished equipment, if it is specifically noted in the Pricing proposal. 4. Delivered and operational. Unless clearly noted in the proposal, equipment and products must be delivered to the Participating Entity as operational. 5. Warranty. All equipment, products, supplies, and services must be covered by a warranty that is the industry standard or better. D. ANTICIPATED CONTRACT TERM Rev. 3/2022 Sourcewell RFP #092222 Electrical Energy Power Generation Equipment with Related Parts, Supplies, and Services Page 6 Sourcewell anticipates that the term of any resulting contract(s) will be four years, with an optional one-year extension that may be offered based on the best interests of Sourcewell and its Participating Entities. E. ESTIMATED CONTRACT VALUE AND USAGE Based on past volume of similar contracts, the estimated annual value of all transactions from contracts resulting from this RFP are anticipated to be USD $80 Million; therefore, proposers are expected to propose volume pricing. Sourcewell anticipates considerable activity under the contract(s) awarded from this RFP; however, sales and sales volume from any resulting contract are not guaranteed. F. MARKETING PLAN Proposer’s sales force will be the primary source of communication with Participating Entities. The proposer’s Marketing Plan should demonstrate proposer’s ability to deploy a sales force or dealer network to Participating Entities, as well as proposer’s sales and service capabilities. It is expected that proposer will promote and market any contract award. G. ADDITIONAL CONSIDERATIONS 1. Contracts will be awarded to proposers able to best meet the need of Participating Entities. Proposers should submit their complete line of equipment, products, or services that are applicable to the scope of this RFP. 2. A proposer may submit only one proposal. If related, affiliated, or subsidiary entities elect to submit separate proposals, rather than a single parent-entity proposal, each such proposal must be prepared independently and without cooperation, collaboration, or collusion. 3. If a proposer works with a consultant on its proposal, the consultant (an individual or company) may not assist any other entity with a proposal for this solicitation. 4. Proposers should include all relevant information in its proposal, since Sourcewell cannot consider information that is not included in the proposal. Sourcewell reserves the right to verify proposer’s information and may request clarification from a proposer, including samples of the proposed equipment or products. 5. Depending upon the responses received in a given category, Sourcewell may need to organize responses into subcategories in order to provide the broadest coverage of the requested equipment, products, or services to Participating Entities. Awards may be based on a subcategory. 6. A proposer’s documented negative past performance with Sourcewell or its Participating Entities occurring under a previously awarded Sourcewell contract may be considered in the evaluation of a proposal. III. PRICING Rev. 3/2022 Sourcewell RFP #092222 Electrical Energy Power Generation Equipment with Related Parts, Supplies, and Services Page 7 A. REQUIREMENTS All proposed pricing must be: 1. Either Line-Item Pricing or Percentage Discount from Catalog Pricing, or a combination of these: a. Line-item Pricing is pricing based on each individual product or services. Each line must indicate the proposer’s published “List Price,” as well as the “Contract Price.” b. Percentage Discount from Catalog or Category is based on a percentage discount from a catalog or list price, defined as a published Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) for the products or services. Individualized percentage discounts can be applied to any number of defined product groupings. Proposers will be responsible for providing and maintaining current published MSRP with Sourcewell, and this pricing must be included in its proposal and provided throughout the term of any contract resulting from this RFP. 2. The proposer’s not to exceed price. A not to exceed price is the highest price for which equipment, products, or services may be billed to a Participating Entity. However, it is permissible for suppliers to sell at a price that is lower than the contracted price. 3. Stated in U.S. and Canadian dollars (as applicable). 4. Clearly understandable, complete, and fully describe the total cost of acquisition (e.g., the cost of the proposed equipment, products, and services delivered and operational for its intended purpose in the Participating Entity’s location). Proposers should clearly identify any costs that are NOT included in the proposed product or service pricing. This may include items such as installation, set up, mandatory training, or initial inspection. Include identification of any parties that impose such costs and their relationship to the proposer. Additionally, proposers should clearly describe any unique distribution and/or delivery methods or options offered in the proposal. B. ADMINISTRATIVE FEES Proposers awarded a contract are expected to pay to Sourcewell an administrative fee in exchange for Sourcewell facilitating the resulting contracts. The administrative fee is normally calculated as a percentage of the total sales to Participating Entities for all contracted equipment, products, or services made during a calendar quarter, and is typically one percent (1%) to two percent (2%). In some categories, a flat fee may be an acceptable alternative. IV. CONTRACT Proposers awarded a contract will be required to execute a contract with Sourcewell (see attached template). Only those modifications the proposer indicates in its proposal will be available for discussion. Much of the language in the Contract reflects Minnesota legal requirements and cannot be altered. Numerous and/or onerous exceptions that contradict Rev. 3/2022 Sourcewell RFP #092222 Electrical Energy Power Generation Equipment with Related Parts, Supplies, and Services Page 8 Minnesota law may result in the proposal being disqualified from further review and evaluation. To request a modification to the template Contract, a proposer must submit the Exceptions to Terms, Conditions, or Specifications table with its proposal. Only those exceptions noted at the time of the proposal submission will be considered. Exceptions must: 1. Clearly identify the affected article and section. 2. Clearly note the requested modification; and as applicable, provide requested alternative language. Unclear requests will be automatically denied. Only those exceptions that have been accepted by Sourcewell will be included in the contract document provided to the awarded supplier for signature. If a proposer receives a contract award resulting from this solicitation it will have up to 30 days to sign and return the contract. After that time, at Sourcewell’s sole discretion, the contract award may be revoked. V. RFP PROCESS A.

Osceola Avenue Clearwater, FL 33755 File Number: ID#25-0261 Agenda Date: 4/14/2025 Status: Agenda ReadyVersion: 1 File Type: Action ItemIn Control: Marine & Aviation Agenda Number: 7.1 SUBJECT/RECOMMENDATION: Approve the Joint Participation Agreement (JPA) G3A98 between the City of Clearwater and the State of Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT), Installation of an Emergency Generator at the Clearwater Airpark, authorize the appropriate officials to execute same, and adopt Resolution 25-06. SUMMARY: On January 12, 2023, City Council approved the Lease and Property Operating Agreement (Operating Agreement) with FlyUSA to manage the Clearwater Airpark and subsequently approved the First Amendment to the Lease and Property Operating Agreement on March 7, 2024. As part of the public-private partnership, the City and FlyUSA seek to redevelop the Terminal and FBO building. In accordance with the Operating Agreement, specifically article 12, the City and FlyUSA agreed to seek FDOT funding to support capital improvements such as the Terminal and FBO building. Additionally, the City committed in the agreement to pay a maximum of $750,000 towards the Airpark terminal and cover, subject to reimbursement by FlyUSA, the cash match associated with any FDOT grant funding. The Clearwater Airpark is strategically located with an elevation of 71 ft. above sea level making it the highest airport in the Tampa Bay region. This location is vital during storm events where storm surge impacts local airports making Clearwater Airpark the only option for crucial emergency air operations. FDOT JPA Agreement G3A98 provides for a $400,000 grant with a $100,000 City match, for a total of $500,000 grant for the installation of an emergency generator that will not only power the new terminal building but also the Clearwater Gas System (CGS) Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) filling station. Ensuring the filling station remains operational will allow city garbage trucks and other CNG vehicles to refuel immediately after a hurricane or storm event. Any project costs exceeding the grant funding for the generator’s design and installation will be covered by CGS’s Natural Gas Vehicle capital improvement project. APPROPRIATION CODE AND AMOUNT: A mid-year budget amendment will establish capital project 302-G2509, Airpark Emergency Generator, and record a budget of $400,000 in grant revenue from FDOT and $100,000 of Gas Fund revenues transferred from capital project 323-96387, Natural Gas Vehicle.

Osceola Avenue Clearwater, FL 33755 File Number: ID#25-0278 Agenda Date: 4/14/2025 Status: Agenda ReadyVersion: 1 File Type: Action ItemIn Control: Public Utilities Agenda Number: 8.1 SUBJECT/RECOMMENDATION: Authorize an increase on purchase order to Envirowaste Services Group of Tampa, FL, for Pumping and Tankering Services - Domestic Wastewater, in the amount of $85,000.00, increasing the annual not-to-exceed amount from $125,000.00 to $210,000.00 for the contract term ending on September 13, 2025, pursuant to Clearwater Code of Ordinances Section 2.563 (1)(c), piggyback, and authorize the appropriate officials to execute same. (consent) SUMMARY: On October 6, 2022, Council approved a purchase order to Envirowaste Services Group for Emergency & Non-Emergency Pumping and Tankering Services in the annual not-to-exceed amount of $125,000.00 piggybacking off of Pinellas County contract #22-0073-B-BW, Pumping and Tankering Services - Domestic Wastewater (Emergency and Non-Emergency). Elevated wastewater influent flows resulting from Tropical Storm Debby, Hurricane Helene, and Hurricane Milton introduced significant amounts of sand, debris, and solids into the chlorine contact chambers at both the Marshall Street and Northeast Water Reclamation Facilities. This debris increased the demand for sodium hypochlorite (bleach) and interferes with the disinfection process, posing a risk of non-compliance with Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) regulations. The impacts of the 2024 hurricane season have further exacerbated the need for reliable pumping and tankering services. Consequently, we are requesting a contract adjustment to maintain regulatory compliance and ensure operational efficiency. APPROPRIATION CODE AND AMOUNT: Funding is available in various Public Utilities operating cost centers in expense code 530300, contractual services. The Public Utilities department is funded by revenues from the Water and Sewer Utility Enterprise Fund. STRATEGIC PRIORITY: Establishing this contract meets the City’s strategic objective of High Performing Government by providing a high level of service at our facilities, protecting our residents and preserving vital infrastructure. It also satisfies the strategic objective of Environmental Stewardship by ensuring our plants and facilities are always running at peak capacity and performance, guarding against potential spills that could negatively impact our surrounding estuaries and community.

PROCUREMENT POLICY FOR RECYCLED MATERIALS: Pinellas County wishes to encourage its bidders to use recycled products in fulfilling contractual obligations to the County and that such a policy will serve as a model for other public entities and private sector companies. When awarding a purchase of $5,000 or less, or recommending a purchase in excess of $5,000 for products, materials, or services, the Director of Purchasing may allow a preference to a responsive bidder who certifies that their product or material contains the greatest percentage of postconsumer material. If they are bidding on paper products they must certify that their materials and/or products contain at least the content recommended by the EPA guidelines. On all bids over fifty thousand dollars ($50,000) and formal quotes under fifty thousand dollars ($50,000), or as required by law, the Director of Purchasing shall require vendors to specify which products have recycled materials, what percentage or amount is postconsumer material, and to provide certification of the percentages of recycled materials used in the manufacture of goods and commodities procured by the County. Price preference is not the preferred practice the County wishes to employ in meeting the goals of this resolution. If a price preference is deemed to serve the best interest of the County and further supports the purchase of recycled materials, the Director of Purchasing will make a recommendation that a price preference be allowed up to an amount not to exceed 10% above the lowest complying bid received. DEFINITIONS: Recovered Materials: Materials that have recycling potential, can be recycled, and have been diverted or removed from the solid waste stream for sale, use or reuse, by separation, collection, or processing. Recycled Materials: Materials that contain recovered materials. This term may include internally generated scrap that is commonly used in industrial or manufacturing processes, waste or scrap purchased from another manufacturer and used in the same or a closely related product. Postconsumer Materials: Materials which have been used by a business or a consumer and have served their intended end use, and have been separated or diverted from the solid waste stream for the purpose of recycling, such as; newspaper, aluminum, glass containers, plastic containers, office paper, corrugated boxes, pallets or other items which can be used in the remanufacturing process. 22-0073-B-BW Page 6 of 30 SECTION A - GENERAL CONDITIONS PINELLAS COUNTY PURCHASING AND RISK MANAGEMENT ITB – SERVICES REVISED: 10-2021 25.

SUBMISSION OF BIDS: The preferred method is PDF conversion from your source files (to minimize file size and maximize quality and accessibility) rather than scanning. Instructions for Providing Files in PDF Format to Pinellas County Government A. How do I convert my files to PDF format? Answer- If you have a program such as Adobe Acrobat, creating a PDF of any file is a simple print function. Rather than printing to a traditional printer, the file converts to a PDF format copy of your original. Any program (such as Word, PowerPoint, Excel, etc.) can be converted this way by simply selecting the print command and choosing PDF as the printer. B. Should I scan everything and save as PDF? Answer- Not unless you are scanning with OCR (optical character recognition). Scanning will create unnecessarily large files because a scan is just a picture of a page rather than actual page text. Furthermore, the result of scanning is that your pages will not look nearly as “clean” or professional as simply using the print to PDF method from the program from which the file originates. Additionally, since scan pages are pictures of text, not really text, they may not be considered accessible* under Federal ADA guidelines (*unless the scans are OCR.) 22-0073-B-BW Page 16 of 30 SECTION C – INSURANCE REQUIREMENTS PINELLAS COUNTY PURCHASING AND RISK MANAGEMENT ITB – SERVICES REVISED: 10-2021 The recommended vendor must provide a certificate of insurance and endorsement in accordance with the insurance requirements listed below, prior to award of contract.

Osceola Avenue Clearwater, FL 33755 File Number: ID#25-0298 Agenda Date: 4/14/2025 Status: Agenda ReadyVersion: 1 File Type: Action ItemIn Control: City Attorney Agenda Number: 10.1 SUBJECT/RECOMMENDATION: Approve a five-year agreement with the law firm of Bryant Miller Olive to perform bond counsel and disclosure counsel services as needed and authorize the appropriate officials to execute same. (consent) SUMMARY: The law firm of Bryant Miller Olive (BMO) has served as the City’s bond counsel since 1995. Outside counsel is a practical necessity in bond issuance transactions due to potential conflicts of interest if the issuer’s in-house attorneys serve in that role. BMO was chosen for renewal due to their institutional familiarity with Clearwater’s bond history, their exemplary performance during the Imagine Clearwater bonds, their proven, creative approaches to bond matters in representing other local governments, and their strong relationship with the Public Resources Advisory Group (PRAG), which serves as the City's financial advisor. Historically, the City of Clearwater has paid a second law firm to serve as disclosure counsel. The City Attorney’s Office, in concert with the Finance Director and PRAG, have identified cost savings by consolidating the disclosure counsel and bond counsel functions with a single firm. If approved, BMO will serve as the City's disclosure counsel in addition to serving as bond counsel. Consolidating these functions will slightly reduce the cost of issuance, and conserve time in coordinating with multiple firms. This agreement comes at no inherent cost. When the City issues bonds, however, bond counsel is compensated as a percentage of the bond. The compensation is deducted from the bond proceeds. The exact percentage depends on the amount of the bond and the source of the pledge; the details regarding the proposal are attached to this agenda item.

("BMO" or the "Firm") to continue to serve in the premier role of Bond Counsel to the City of Clearwater, Florida (the "City"), a privilege we have enjoyed for at least the last 25 years, and to further serve as Disclosure Counsel, a privilege we enjoyed prior to that. The Firm stands ready, if selected, to continue to provide services to the City and to dedicate all of our resources to accomplish the City's goals in a responsive, effective, timely and cost-effective manner. We understand the work to be performed, having served as the City’s Bond Counsel for the past quarter century. We commit to perform the requested Bond Counsel and/or Disclosure Counsel services for the duration of the legal services agreement. We would like to address the specific areas to be addressed in the letter of transmittal: A. As the leading Florida-based public finance firm, we possess a complete and thorough understanding of the work to be performed for the City as Bond Counsel and Disclosure Counsel. The attorneys at the Firm have been involved in just about all, if not all, forms of finance utilized by local governments in Florida. Indeed, many of these finance structures were pioneered in Florida by BMO. Our Firm’s well-rounded expertise has allowed us to serve our clients as Bond Counsel or Disclosure Counsel, and for many of our clients both capacities simultaneously. B. The Firm commits to continue to locally provide to the City the highest level of services that it requires on a prompt and priority basis for the duration of this engagement. To achieve that level of service, BMO uses a team approach to fully address all of the needs of its clients. The primary contacts for the City for Bond Counsel services will be Duane D. Draper, as team leader, assisted by Robert "Bob" C. Reid, Tanner C. Adkison and William "Will" A. Milford. In the event the Firm is selected to provide Disclosure Counsel services, Christopher "Chris" B. Roe will be the Disclosure Counsel team leader, assisted by Dana J. Maykish. If the City decides to use separate firms for Bond Counsel and Disclosure ________________________________________________________________ Proposal to Provide Bond and Disclosure Counsel Services to the City of Clearwater 3 Counsel, our preference would be to continue to serve as your Bond Counsel as we have been for at least the last 25-years. The City will also have access to our Firm’s in-house tax attorneys, led by Mr. Milford and assisted by Leonard "Len" T. Marcinko. Mr. Roe and Mr. Reid are both equipped to handle bond- related litigation experience including contested bond validations, each bringing years of experience handling such matters. C. The continued retention by the City of Clearwater of the Firm would not, to the best of our knowledge, result in a conflict of interest with any party. Should any potential conflict arise in the future, we would immediately disclose the facts to the City Attorney, including the party with which there might be a conflict, the nature of the potential conflict, and the means of resolving such potential conflict, including but not limited to, obtaining written conflict waivers from both parties and/or resignation of the representation that is causing the conflict if so desired. One of the greatest benefits of being a public sector law firm with special public finance law expertise is that the potential for conflicts of interest is greatly reduced. Historically, the Firm does not represent interests that are adverse to local governments, such as land use and litigation against local governments. The rules regulating The Florida Bar provide that common representation of multiple parties is permissible where the clients are generally aligned in interest, even though there is some difference in interest among them. We have disclosed to the City that we have, currently do and may in the future, serve as bond counsel or disclosure counsel to other local governments, act as underwriters' counsel and represent lending institutions on public finance matters in Florida. From time to time, we may represent the firms which may underwrite the City's bonds, notes or other obligations (and other financial institutions hired by the City) on financings for other governmental entities in Florida on unrelated matters. In all such cases, such representations are standard and customary within the industry and we can effectively represent the City and the discharge of our professional responsibilities to the City will not be prejudiced as a result, either because such engagements will be sufficiently different or because the potential for such prejudice is remote and minor and outweighed by consideration that it is unlikely that advice given to the other client will be relevant in any respect to the subject matter, and the City expressly consents to such other representations consistent with the circumstances herein described. Our representation on unrelated matters is not likely to create or cause any actual conflict, and such service will not per se be construed as a conflict or be objectionable to the City. However, we understand that the City reserves the right to identify a representation that it finds objectionable in the future, in which case both parties agree to take appropriate steps to resolve the issue. Should any potential conflict arise in the future, the Firm would immediately disclose the facts to the City including the party with which there might be a conflict, the nature of the potential conflict, and the means of resolving such potential conflict, including but not limited to obtaining written conflict waivers from both parties and/or resignation of the representation or representations which is/are causing the conflict, if desired. D. BMO is Florida’s largest, most resourceful and most sophisticated public finance law firm with 38 attorneys in offices located in Tampa, Miami, Jacksonville, Tallahassee, Orlando, Washington, D.C. and Atlanta. BMO has had a national and statewide municipal bond practice since 1973. Our public finance group has the deepest bench in the State of Florida (the "State") and is comprised of 23 Florida public finance attorneys, including four (4) in-house, Section 103 federal tax attorneys. In the past five (5) years, BMO has served as Bond Counsel, Disclosure Counsel, Special Counsel or Underwriter's Counsel on more than 1,304 bond issues involving over $59 billion in principal amount of governmental bonds. Current local government clients within the Tampa Bay region include, but are not limited to, the City, Hillsborough County, the City of Tampa, Sarasota County, Pasco County, the City of St. Petersburg, Pinellas County, the Tampa Sports Authority, the Tampa Port Authority, the Tampa-Hillsborough Expressway Authority, the City of Largo, the City of Safety Harbor, the City of Treasure Island, the City of Oldsmar, the City of Dunedin, the City of Tarpon Springs, the Housing Finance Authority of Pinellas County and Moffit Cancer Center. We believe that we distinguish ourselves from other firms and add value to the services we provide by offering exceptional attention to detail, along with attorneys who have an extraordinary depth and breadth of experience not only in public finance, but also in other relevant areas to the City, including community redevelopment, special assessments, contested bond validations, public/private partnerships, new market tax credits and legislative affairs, to name a few. One of our greatest assets in providing Bond Counsel services is the strength of our Section 103 federal tax law practice. No other Florida-based firm has our depth of experience in the Section 103 tax area or comparable resources dedicated to this area. In fact, many of our competitors contract out their tax work which is a distinct competitive advantage for BMO. Our tax attorneys work closely with the Bond Counsel team and are always available for contact directly by the City. We appreciate the opportunity to respond to this Request for Proposal and thank you for your consideration. Thank you and best regards, BRYANT MILLER OLIVE P.A. By: _____________ Duane D. Draper, Shareholder Proposal to Provide Bond and Disclosure Counsel Services to the City of Clearwater 4 ________________________________________________________________ Proposal to Provide Bond and Disclosure Counsel Services to the City of Clearwater 5 TAB 2 | QUALIFICATIONS (ABILITIES, EXPERIENCE AND EXPERTISE) The following information should be included: A. A statement of qualifications, abilities, experience and expertise in providing the requested services. Bryant Miller Olive P.A. ("BMO" or the "Firm") is a Florida-based professional association of attorneys under the laws of the State of Florida with 55 years of history of representing Florida’s state and local governments. The Firm was founded by former Florida Governor C. Farris Bryant and two of his high-level government attorneys, Robert Olive and Wilton Miller. Their goal was to provide excellent client service while working closely with cities, counties, and state agencies to shape Florida’s future. BMO was organized in 1970 and first appeared in The Bond Buyer's Municipal Marketplace (The Red Book) as a nationally recognized Bond Counsel firm in 1973, the first Florida law firm still in existence to be so listed. For additional information about BMO and its practice areas, please visit our website at www.bmolaw.com. BMO is the largest, most resourceful public finance law firm in Florida and our technical ability, reputation and experience as a Florida-based Bond Counsel is unparalleled serving Florida issuers. BMO serves as Disclosure Counsel and/or Bond Counsel to 35 of Florida's 67 counties, including nine (9) of the largest Florida counties. In the past five (5) years, BMO has provided public finance legal counsel to counties, municipalities and other governmental entities on more than 1,500 bond issues involving over $60 billion in principal amount of tax-exempt governmental and private activity bonds. Bryant Miller Olive P.A. was recently named as a 2025 Tier 1 National "Best Law Firm" for Public Finance Law by Best Lawyers®. In 2023, our Firm with the assistance of Duane D. Draper was awarded The Bond Buyer National Healthcare Deal of the Year for Moffitt's Cigarette Tax Allocation Bonds, Series 2023A. According to Securities Data Co. Inc., in the years 2013 through 2023 BMO has been the top-ranked Bond Counsel firm in Florida-based on the number of transactions completed. As Bond Counsel in Florida, BMO completed 153 transactions involving over $7.2 billion over the past 12 months, and in the past five (5) years, BMO completed 824 transactions involving over $26 billion. During such time, BMO has gained extensive experience working with and negotiating against the major banking institutions in the State of Florida and their counsel to obtain the most advantageous financing terms for its clients. Additionally, BMO has been at the forefront of developing the role of Disclosure Counsel in Florida and devotes a significant part of its public finance practice to federal securities law matters, including both primary market disclosure and secondary market disclosure, and allocates a significant amount of time and resources to assisting its clients in this regard. BMO is well recognized for our vast experience in disclosure law and compliance with the federal requirements promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), principally Rule 10b-5 and Rule 15c2-12 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Our advice has been relied upon by many governmental issuers in Florida to ensure that their primary and secondary disclosure efforts satisfy all federal requirements. According to Securities Data Co. Inc., in the years 2013 through 2022, BMO ranked second as Disclosure Counsel in Florida-based on both the number of transactions completed and dollar volume and in 2023 BMO became top ranked Disclosure Counsel firm in Florida. In the past 12 months, BMO completed 25 transactions involving over $1.7 billion in the State as Disclosure Counsel. Because of this depth and breadth of our Firm’s experience, it is unlikely that there is any public finance issue that we have not encountered practicing in the field of municipal finance. As this response will demonstrate, BMO stands ready to serve the City of Clearwater, Florida (the "City"). If selected, BMO will provide prompt, sound and quality Bond and Disclosure Counsel services to the City, offering: (i) very close proximity; (ii) familiarity with the complex historical and routine issues facing the City; (iii) a significant depth and highly niche expertise in public finance law, federal tax law, securities law, state law and other relevant local government law matters; (iv) experience in working with innovative and ________________________________________________________________ Proposal to Provide Bond and Disclosure Counsel Services to the City of Clearwater 6 complex financing structures; and (v) readily available professional and support staff resources located in Tampa, all of which will equip the Firm to handle the sophistication, complexity and volume of legal services the City may require in a timely, efficient, accurate and effective manner. BMO has full-service public finance offices in Tampa, Orlando, Tallahassee, Miami, Jacksonville, Washington, D.C. and Atlanta. BMO's strong Florida presence is attributable, in part, to its founder, C. Farris Bryant, who was the Governor of Florida in the early 1960s. BMO employs a professional staff of 38 attorneys, 23 of whom are focused on the area of public finance law, giving BMO more Florida-based municipal bond attorneys than any other law firm. BMO having more Florida bond lawyers than any other law firm is not a coincidence. We made this strategic investment by design to enable the Firm to provide exceptional counsel on all aspects of a transaction now and for many years to come. It is uncommon for a law firm to have specialists in all aspects of a public finance transaction, specifically tax. As part of BMO's public finance group, BMO has four (4) in-house Section 103 federal tax attorneys and does not subcontract its tax work to other firms, unlike many of our competitors. Integrity Public Finance Consulting, LLC ("Integrity"), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Firm, provides comprehensive arbitrage rebate and escrow verification services for municipal bond issuers on a nationwide basis. No other Florida public finance law firm performs arbitrage rebate calculation services for clients. Integrity’s CEO, Laurie Scott, entered the field when the first Regulations were issued and participated in the evolution of the rules through major changes over the ensuing years. This invaluable experience helps to assess issues that may be present but not apparent in financings. Her awareness of financing techniques, the mindset of the industry and its professionals through time, and historical yield curve environments creates a window for identifying opportunities and potential pitfalls that less experienced professionals may not utilize. Integrity has provided its comprehensive arbitrage rebate services to the City on several occasions between 2007 and 2009, including for an arbitrage rebate report in 2009 related defeasance of the City's $43,642,689.75 Water and Sewer Refunding Revenue Bonds, Series 1998 by the Water and Sewer Revenue Refunding Bonds, Series 2009B. Prior to 2007, Laurie Scott also provided similar services to the City while at Ernst and Young. For the first time in nearly 20 years, issuers find themselves in a positive arbitrage environment. BMO’s arbitrage experience and close alignment with Integrity provides an invaluable resource for clients. Prior to becoming a Section 103 Tax Attorney, William "Will" A. Milford began his career in public finance as an arbitrage rebate analyst, which provides a unique perspective when working through many arbitrage- driven tax issues that arise in the current interest rate environment. No one wants to have an unplanned-for budgetary surprise in terms of an arbitrage rebate liability to the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") upon the fifth anniversary of a bond closing. The Firm has established extensive quality control protocols which include internal review procedures for Bond Counsel opinions and federal tax matters. Bond Counsel opinions and all documents related to tax code compliance must be reviewed and approved by at least two (2) Firm shareholders prior to release, significantly minimizing the likelihood of error. In addition, the public finance attorneys at BMO conduct a weekly conference call on Thursday mornings to discuss any hot topics or issues encountered during the week. During these calls, we discuss recent developments and best practices for following federal, state and local tax laws as well receive updates on national trends from Kareem J. Spratling who is a member of the Board of Directors of the National Association of Bond Lawyers ("NABL") and Mr. Milford who serves as Chair of the Education Committee for NABL. In such capacities, Mr. Spratling and Mr. Milford are in a unique position to report on the ever-changing legal landscape around public finance as it occurs across the country including solutions to challenges faced in other states before such issues arrive in Florida. Recent topics of conversation ________________________________________________________________ Proposal to Provide Bond and Disclosure Counsel Services to the City of Clearwater 7 have included federal securities and blue sky laws, TEFRA hearings and procedures, arbitrage and rebate requirements, and Nongovernmental Entity Affidavits required under Section 787.06(13), Florida Statutes. The Firm's attorneys have kept abreast of changes in the rules regarding disclosure by municipal issuers, especially the continuously evolving secondary market disclosure rules which may have dramatic implications for Disclosure Counsel and the City. The Firm is uniquely situated to assist its governmental clients in complying with the federal securities laws and required annual reporting. In addition, many of the Firm's attorneys are regular speakers at regional and national seminars on matters of public finance. One of our Firm’s shareholders, who is the past President of NABL, is a national leader in disclosure matters, having been a pioneer in the fields of electronic disclosure and pension disclosure. BMO has the highly specialized technical ability, reputation, and experience to meet the City's needs. The Firm is rated "AV Preeminent" by Martindale-Hubbell. BMO is structurally sound and well-managed by seasoned attorneys with a long history of successfully working together. The Firm has historically concentrated its municipal finance practice in the State of Florida in order to provide in-depth support for Florida issuers in both state law and federal tax matters. The Firm has a strong Tampa Bay Area presence with a centrally located downtown Tampa office that provides a full range of Bond Counsel and Disclosure Counsel services through its twelve (12) attorneys, five (5) of whom devote 100% of their practice to public finance, as well as one (1) public finance legal assistant and four (4) public finance paralegals. In addition, many of the other Tampa office attorneys have extensive municipal and governmental experience, serving as General Counsel to the Pinellas Suncoast Transit Authority and the Manatee Port Authority, as County Attorney for Hardee County and City Attorney for the Cities of Dunedin, Safety Harbor, Largo and Treasure Island. The office is a short drive away from City Hall and the attorneys in the Firm's Tampa office are available to respond to any request for assistance from the City. The ability of the Firm to serve its clients across the State is enhanced with offices in Jacksonville, Miami, Orlando and Tallahassee. With the Firm's staff of attorneys, paralegals and legal assistants, the Firm is able to provide its governmental clients with a full range of services. These services include not only Bond Counsel and Disclosure Counsel services, but also litigation related services, special assessment services, real estate services, community development and redevelopment services, legislative and executive branch liaison assistance, administrative compliance matters, government procurement services, public energy representation, and interfacing with the federal government. The Firm's tax attorneys are routinely in contact with representatives of the State of Florida Department of Revenue as well as the IRS on matters affecting local government units, such as the City. To facilitate responses to our clients' needs, the Firm has installed a multi-city interfaced computer system allowing the attorneys, paralegals and legal assistants in all of the Firm's offices to access the same database for document production and reproduction regardless of where they are located, as well as provide access to Lexis+ provided by LexisNexis and computerized federal income tax databases. ________________________________________________________________ Proposal to Provide Bond and Disclosure Counsel Services to the City of Clearwater 8 i. Describe your Firm’s experience in serving as Bond Counsel and Disclosure Counsel to local governmental units, particularly focusing on those individuals who the firm intends to assign to the City of Clearwater. The Firm has extensive experience with City of Clearwater in the role of Bond Counsel, dating back at least 25 years, and Disclosure Counsel prior to that. Our Firm, led by Robert "Bob" C. Reid and Mr. Draper, have assisted the City with multiple financings during such time. Our institutional knowledge and history are invaluable to the City. Most recently our Firm assisted the City with issuance of its $30,000,000 Non-Ad Valorem Revenue Bonds (Imagine Clearwater Improvements), Series 2022 to redevelop the Coachman Park. In addition, we have assisted the City with financings to improve the City’s water, sewer, stormwater and gas systems. Due to the ongoing experience serving the City, our Firm has a deep understanding of the City’s operations, Charter, capital stack, and staff. If our Firm is selected to be Bond Counsel, Mr. Draper and Mr. Reid (while he continues to practice law) would continue to serve in the capacity that the Firm has for the last 25 years, and they will be assisted by Mr. Milford and Tanner C. Adkison. If we have the opportunity to become your Disclosure Counsel as well, Christopher "Chris" B. Roe would oversee those responsibilities, assisted by Dana J. Maykish. As the City is familiar, Mr. Roe also provided his expertise to advise the City on potential special assessment revenues for brick resurfacing improvements for the streets in Harbor Oaks in 2016. BMO has served the City on the following transactions: $30,000,000 Non-Ad Valorem Revenue Bonds, Series 2022 (Imagine Clearwater Improvements) $20,430,000 Water and Sewer Revenue Refunding Bonds, Series 2020 $29,080,000 Water and Sewer Revenue Refunding Bonds, Series 2017B $69,270,000 Water and Sewer Revenue Refunding Bonds, Series 2017 $27,520,000 Water and Sewer Revenue Refunding Bonds, Series 2014 $5,450,000 Stormwater System Revenue Refunding Bond, Series 2014 $5,405,000 Gas System Revenue Refunding Bond, Series 2014 $11,025,000 Stormwater System Revenue Refunding Bonds, Series 2013 $7,365,000 Gas System Revenue Refunding Bonds, Series 2013 $19,365,000 Stormwater System Revenue Refunding Bonds, Series 2012 $47,025,000 Water and Sewer Revenue Refunding Bonds, Series 2011 $67,715,000 Water and Sewer Revenue Bonds, Series 2009A $41,700,000 Water and Sewer Revenue Refunding Bonds, Series 2009B $12,900,000 Improvement Revenue Bonds, Series 2008 $3,700,000 Gas System Revenue Refunding Bonds, Series 2007 (Bank Qualified) $26,430,000 Water and Sewer Revenue Bonds, Series 2006 $7,175,000 Gas System Revenue Refunding Bonds, Series 2005 $6,925,000 Stormwater System Revenue Refunding Bonds, Series 2005 $14,350,000 Stormwater System Revenue Bonds, Series 2004 $8,890,000 Gas System Revenue Refunding Bonds, Series 2004 $8,410,000 Water and Sewer Refunding Revenue Bonds, Series 2003 $14,810,000 Revenue Bonds (Spring Training Facility), Series 2002 $24,685,000 Stormwater System Revenue Bonds, Series 2002 $58,680,000 Water and Sewer Revenue Bonds, Series 2002 $11,470,000 Improvement Revenue Refunding Bonds, Series 2001 $46,445,000 Infrastructure Sales Tax Revenue Bonds, Series 2001 One member of the BMO team, Mr. Reid, has been serving the City as its Bond Counsel since the beginning, and, as such, has been intimately involved with meeting the City’s financing needs. The City’s ________________________________________________________________ Proposal to Provide Bond and Disclosure Counsel Services to the City of Clearwater 9 Charter, former Article IX, until fairly recently, has required a referendum for bond issues unless the issues involved public health and safety or industrial development. In 1994, Mr. Reid successfully represented the City and its Gas System in a contested validation of its expansion of its gas system into Pasco County. In 1999, Mr. Reid successfully represented the City in a bond validation proceeding that was contested by the Pinellas County School Board and the St. Petersburg Junior College, validating the creation of the City Stormwater System and confirming the obligation of the School Board and the College to pay the City’s stormwater management fees, the revenues from which supported the City’s Stormwater Revenue Bonds. When a group of local citizens complained about the City’s Clearwater Beach improvement project, including the creation of a roundabout on the beach, Mr. Reid represented the City in the successful validation of this contested proceeding. The citizens appealed the final judgment in favor of the City to the Florida Supreme Court, which ultimately sustained the final judgment and observed that a city was not obligated to build ugly roads. While the City Charter has since been amended to remove the public health and safety exception to the issuance of bonds, other provisions of the Charter have created issues for the City which, upon the advice of BMO, could be resolved expeditiously with the use of a bond validation proceeding. A recent example of this approach was the successful validation of the Imagine Clearwater project and its bond financing in 2020. As a result of the validation final judgment, several non-bond related provisions in the City Charter were found to not impair the ability of the City to proceed with the Imagine Clearwater project and its financing. BMO has also assisted the City in project beyond the issuance of governmental bonds as Bond Counsel. For example, Mr. Reid served the City as Bond Counsel in issuing industrial development bonds, now referred to as private activity bonds or qualified 501(c)(3) bonds, to benefit several local groups, such as Ruth Eckerd Hall and the Clearwater Marine Aquarium. Mr. Reid also assisted the City on working with local property owners to create a special assessment program to finance the undergrounding of public utility lines. One such example is the program created for Island Estates. Additionally, Mr. Reid assisted the City in various non-bond related matters, such as negotiating on behalf of the City with the Philadelphia Phillies Major League Baseball team for the expansion of the team’s spring training facility between 1999 and 2002, including the acquisition of real property for the expansion. Mr. Reid successfully represented the City in its application for State funds from a sales tax rebate for spring training facilities and was instrumental in the assembly of these State revenues, along with funds provided by Pinellas County to enable the City to issue tax-exempt bonds to finance the expansion of the spring training facility without the use of any direct City revenues or assets. Commencing in 2017, Mr. Reid once again worked with the City on the extension of the spring training contract that he negotiated in 2000 and 2001, and potential further expansion of the spring training facility. These more recent efforts were subsequently halted when a roadblock arose to further funding from Pinellas County. In addition to the City, our Firm also represents many clients in and around the Tampa Bay Area. Along with representing the City as Bond Counsel, Mr. Reid serves as Bond Counsel for Housing Finance Authority of Pinellas County. Mr. Draper serves as Bond Counsel for the City of Sarasota, Tampa Sports Authority, Moffitt Cancer Center, Hillsborough County, Pasco County, Sumter County, the City of St. Peterburg, the City of Tarpon Springs, the City of Treasure Island, and the City of Dunedin as well as Disclosure Counsel for the City of Tampa, Sarasota County, Polk County, Charlotte County, Hernando County, Osceola County, Tampa-Hillsborough Expressway Authority, Manatee Port Authority and the Peace River-Manatee Water Supply Authority. Mr. Roe serves as Bond Counsel to the City of Belleair Beach and Parrish Fire District as well as Disclosure Counsel to the City of Sarasota and the City of North Port. Our Firm serves as Bond Counsel to Pinellas County. Mr. Adkison and Ms. Maykish have assisted with the financings for many of these clients. The City of Sarasota is one of several clients where the Firm serves as both Bond Counsel and Disclosure Counsel including, but not limited to, Okeechobee County, Okaloosa Gas District, City of St. Augustine, Volusia County, City of Daytona Beach, Brevard County School District and Martin County. While ________________________________________________________________ Proposal to Provide Bond and Disclosure Counsel Services to the City of Clearwater 10 our Firm’s attorneys are capable of serving in both capacities, our practice is to have separate attorneys and staff assigned specifically to either Bond Counsel or Disclosure Counsel when serving in both roles for a single client. Having distinct internal teams for each role allows our Firm to be efficient in handling document production and qualitative document review as well as creating clear points of contact for our clients to direct questions. In addition, each internal team maintains focus on the specific details that relate to Bond Counsel or Disclosure Counsel, whichever is applicable. While each internal team will have a distinct role, our Firm still works in a cooperative fashion to effectively deliver services and provide optimal communication, scheduling and document sharing than exists when you have two separate firms. There are efficiencies associated with serving the City in both capacities which we pass onto the City in terms of reduced fees. As an example of this delivery model, in 2024, our Firm assisted the Okaloosa Gas District (the "Gas District") with issuance of its $15,155,000 Gas System Revenue Bonds, Series 2024A (Taxable) and $93,010,000 Gas System Refunding Revenue Bonds, 2024B to finance the construction of a new headquarters for the Gas District’s operations. While assisting with the issuance of the Bonds, Mr. Draper served as Bond Counsel, assisted by Ms. Maykish, and Mr. Roe served as Disclosure Counsel, assisted by Mr. Adkison. Our tax attorneys, Mr. Milford and Leonard "Len" T. Marcinko, played a critical role in evaluating how private activity from a potential lease of a portion of the building would affect the ability of the Gas District to issue tax-exempt bonds. The same team of attorneys, working in opposite roles, helped Okeechobee County issue its $16,660,000 Half-Cent Sales Tax Revenue and Refunding Revenue Bonds, Series 2024A and $7,275,000 Half-Cent Sales Tax Revenue Bonds, Series 2024B. The proceeds of the Bonds are being used to fund improvements to Okeechobee County's jail facilities as well as refund one of their outstanding notes to lower the interest paid by Okeechobee County. As part of the deal, the Firm was able to advise Okeechobee County on proper procedures for obtaining and disclosing the municipal bond insurance policy to insure the debt service on the bonds. A pillar of BMO is our ability to navigate difficult deals and complex scenarios, whether that be as Bond Counsel, Disclosure Counsel or both. As Bond Counsel, Mr. Draper, Mr. Roe and Mr. Adkison recently assisted the City of Key West with the drafting and preparation of four simultaneous bond referenda, along with the required notices, ordinances and resolutions for such bond referendums, in accordance with State law and the City of Key West’s unusually restrictive Charter. Mr. Draper and Mr. Roe regularly made themselves available to address legal questions raised by the City Commission, staff and residents of the City of Key West. During the 2024 general election, the City of Key West passed all four bond referendums. Our Firm will now assist the City of Key West with bond validations and then issuing its not to exceed $60,000,000 General Obligation Bonds, Series 2025 (Public Safety), $51,000,000 General Obligation Bonds, Series 2025 (Transportation and Roadway), $50,000,000 General Obligation Bonds, Series 2025 (Parks and Recreation) and $65,000,000 General Obligation Bonds, Series 2025 (Adaptation). As Bond Counsel, Mr. Draper and Mr. Adkison have been assisting the Florida Keys Aqueduct Authority (the "Authority") on a multi-faceted financing plan which includes the requisition of funds from the $48,690,000 Water Revenue Bond, Series 2021A (Taxable) with the United States Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA") under the Water Infrastructure Finance and Innovation Act ("WIFIA") to legally defease their $30,915,000 Water Revenue Bonds, Series 2021B and the issuance of its $147,301,350 Water Revenue Bond, Series 2025A (Taxable) with the EPA under the WIFIA program to fund improvements to their water system. Both transactions closed in 2025. The Authority is also in the process of consolidating its water and sewer system into a single revenue source under the existing master resolution. This is the result of a change in the Florida statutes, which BMO drafted, that had previously prevented the consolidation. ________________________________________________________________ Proposal to Provide Bond and Disclosure Counsel Services to the City of Clearwater 11 As Disclosure Counsel, Mr. Draper and Mr. Adkison assisted the State Board of Administration Finance Corporation (the "Corporation") with the issuance of their Series 2024A Bonds in the principal amount of $1,000,000,000 in order to provide the necessary funds for Florida Hurricane Catastrophe Fund (the "FHCF") to make reimbursements to insurers covering losses after catastrophic events such as hurricanes. Extensive due diligence and research is required to properly disclose the operations of the Corporation and the FHCF as well as the consistently changing Florida property and casualty insurance market. As the revenue source is structured by legislative statute, our Firm routinely monitors each legislative session for changes to the governing statutes and related insurance statutes. As Disclosure Counsel, Mr. Draper and Ms. Maykish assisted the City of Tampa with the issuance of its $231,030,000 Water and Wastewater Systems Revenue Bonds, Series 2024. As part of the disclosure responsibilities, our Firm closely reviewed detailed reports from a Construction Engineer and Financial Feasibility Consultant discussing revenue sufficiency and condition of the water and wastewater systems, then ensured the City of Tampa’s Official Statement was consistent with those reports. As Bond Counsel, Mr. Reid has assisted Housing Finance Authorities (each an "HFA") across the State with issues arising in tax-exempt and taxable financing. Most recently, he assisted the Volusia County’s HFA in simultaneously issuing tax-exempt bonds for four affordable housing developments. Mr. Reid’s involvement spanned from guidance on tax implications and structure of the financings to conducting TEFRA hearings, drafting the required notices, resolutions, ordinances, agreements, and certificates for each deal. Mr. Reid has advised HFAs across the State as they seek solutions in affordable housing, work force housing, housing for elderly tenants, and tenants with disabilities. His expertise working on complex HFA financing has carved him a space as the "go to" Bond Counsel firm for HFAs. ii. Provide a synopsis of bond-related litigation experience, e.g. contested bond validations. Complimentary to our Firm’s public finance practice, the members of the Firm’s State and Local Government Law group and Labor and Employment Law group have broad experience in local government litigation in general, including constitutional challenges to state legislation, sunshine and public records, code enforcement, comprehensive plan defense, certiorari defense of appeals from city decisions, zoning and variances, eminent domain, inverse condemnation, procurement and bidding, labor and employment, and civil rights defense. As part of the Firm's public finance practice, our attorneys regularly appear as counsel of record in numerous bond validation proceedings and have provided assistance in numerous other validation proceedings. In most bond validation proceedings in which we participate, the Firm prepares all pleadings for the validation of the bonds, and assists in or conducts the validation hearing and any appeal process for contested bond validations including preparation of legal briefs. Historically, bond validation proceedings were required in numerous types of governmental financing transactions. Under present law, bond validation proceedings are no longer required in most cases, but are undertaken when a financing involves unique legal or political issues. Usually, any delay in a financing caused by a validation proceeding is overcome by the additional market benefit of having a judicial determination of the legal matters to be resolved for the bond issue. Furthermore, validations can be very useful procedural tools to overcome timing uncertainties that exist under a threat of traditional litigation. We believe that no other firm has the level of experience in Florida bond validations as BMO. Our Firm has represented the City in multiple validation proceedings (some of which were contested) to bring clarity to restrictive provisions in the City’s Charter, which provisions have subsequently been repealed. As previously mentioned, Mr. Reid was counsel of record to the City of Clearwater on several ________________________________________________________________ Proposal to Provide Bond and Disclosure Counsel Services to the City of Clearwater 12 appeals decided by the Florida Supreme Court regarding validation of bond issues for two roadway projects and a spring training facility. Boschen v. City of Clearwater, 796 So. 2d 958 (Fla. 2001) involved a challenge to the City's issuance of $12,000,000 Infrastructure Sales Tax Revenue Bonds without a referendum, as required by City Charter for borrowings in excess of $1,000,000. Turner v. City of Clearwater, 789 So. 2d 273 (Fla. 2001), involved a similar challenge to a municipal causeway project. At issue in both cases was whether the roadway projects fit within the public health and safety exception in the Charter to the referendum requirement. Roper v. City of Clearwater, 796 So. 2d 1159 (Fla. 2001) involved the ability of the City to use state law provisions to define certain words in its Charter regarding bond restrictions for projects other than industrial development. In all three cases, the Florida Supreme Court rejected the citizens' appeals and upheld the validation of the bonds. In addition, our Firm successfully represented the City in City of Clearwater, Florida v. The State of Florida, et. al (Case No. 2020-000769-C), to validate the issuance of not to exceed $30,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of the City of Clearwater, Florida, Non-Ad Valorem Revenue Bonds, Series 2020 (Imagine Clearwater Improvements), which were later issued in 2022. This validation was undertaken because the project being financed generated some contention, and the validation was successful in quieting the community controversy. Other examples of our Firm appearing as counsel of record in contested bond validation proceedings include: In 1980, our Firm successfully represented the Miami Beach Redevelopment Agency, in State v. Miami Beach Redevelopment Agency, 392 So. 2d 875 (Fla. 1980). Miami Beach is a seminal case that was briefly overturned by the Florida Supreme Court, as described in more detail below, but subsequently restored, based in large part on our briefs and oral argument before the Florida Supreme Court. Such case provided substantial foundation for municipal entities to issue tax-increment revenue bonds without referendum approval. Robert Olive, a named partner in the Firm, was co-counsel of record on behalf of the Miami Beach Redevelopment Agency against the State of Florida (interestingly, the State was represented by future U.S. Attorney General Janet Reno). In 2001, the Firm was counsel of record for the Florida Keys Aqueduct Authority on the appeal by a citizens group in the Florida Keys challenging mandatory sewer connection fees in Keys Citizens for Responsible Government, Inc. v. Florida Keys Aqueduct Authority, 795 So. 2d 940 (Fla. 2001). The Firm validated a series of bonds and the underlying mandatory connection fees, and the validation was upheld by the Florida Supreme Court, paving the way for the Authority to begin the process of serving the Florida Keys and converting from the historical reliance on septic tanks. In 2004, the Firm began assisting the City of Marco Island with development and implementation of the special assessment program underwriting a significant portion of the costs associated with its Septic Tank Replacement Program ("STRP"). Recognizing the potential for controversy from property owners who would be subject to the assessments, the Firm recommended bond validation for the financings and assessments imposed in each sewer district as an efficient means to resolve ongoing legal challenges and constant threats to embroil the City of Marco Island in protracted and costly litigation. Heeding this advice, the City Council directed the Firm to proceed with validation of the first two STRP districts, Tigertail and South Barfield. Shortly after the Firm initiated the validation proceeding, a local citizens group (Citizens Advocating Responsible Environmental Solutions or CARES) joined with several property owners in the affected districts and filed its own lawsuit in Circuit Court challenging the authority of the City of Marco Island to impose the STRP assessments. On the City of Marco Island's behalf, the Firm moved the court to consolidate the CARES challenge into the validation proceeding and thereby obtained for them the most advantageous and cost- efficient litigation venue. The Firm was successful in persuading the trial court that the City of Marco Island was authorized to undertake the STRP and provide for financing thereof through special assessments, and a ________________________________________________________________ Proposal to Provide Bond and Disclosure Counsel Services to the City of Clearwater 13 final judgment was entered upholding the assessments and related financing. A unique feature in Florida bond validation cases under Chapter 75, Florida Statutes, is the ability to directly appeal to the Florida Supreme Court on an expedited basis. CARES appealed the matter to the Florida Supreme Court. The Firm successfully represented the City of Marco Island and obtained a favorable outcome which upheld the assessments and Marco Island's authority to undertake the STRP. The Supreme Court decision in that case is Citizens Advocating Responsible Environmental Solutions, Inc. v. City of Marco Island, 959 So. 2d 203 (Fla. 2007). The successful validation of those first two districts served the City of Marco Island well and quelled future controversy in that there were no further legal challenges or threat of legal challenges regarding the STRP. In 2007, the Florida Supreme Court sent shock waves through the public finance community when it issued an opinion in Strand v. Escambia County, Florida, 992 So. 2d 150 (Fla. 2008), reversing a circuit court's judgment validating tax-increment financed bonds proposed for issuance by Escambia County. The Court determined that tax- increment revenue bonds are "payable from ad valorem taxation" within the meaning of Article VII, Section 12 of the Florida Constitution and thus can only be issued if previously approved by referendum. In doing so, the Court receded from its earlier decision in Miami Beach Redevelopment Agency validating the issuance of tax-increment revenue bonds without the issuance of such bonds having been approved by referendum. Such opinion was damaging to Florida's fundamental and established public finance principles relied upon by many issuers and other stakeholders throughout Florida, and the Firm was involved in many roles in attempt to remedy or clarify this ruling. In fact, the Firm was uniquely qualified to speak on the issues raised in Strand because we represented the Miami Beach Redevelopment Agency in the original validation from 1980, which settled the law in this area. Using its expertise in the area of tax-increment financing, the Firm successfully moved the Court to allow its clients, the Florida League of Cities and the Florida Redevelopment Agency, to appear as amicus curiae and developed a strategy which resulted in an unprecedented rehearing and oral argument. On October 9, 2007, the Court heard oral arguments on rehearing, focusing heavily on issues raised in the amicus curiae brief prepared by the Firm on behalf of its clients. Days after the Court heard oral argument on rehearing in Strand, the Firm submitted briefs before the Court on behalf of its clients, the City of Parker and the Town of Cedar Grove. In City of Parker v. State, 992 So.2d 171 (Fla. 2008) and Bay County v. Town of Cedar Grove, 992 So.2d 164 (Fla. 2008), the local governments employed traditional community redevelopment financing under the Community Redevelopment Act, relying on the unquestioned (until the original Strand) constitutionality of issuing tax-increment revenue bonds, without referendum approval. The Firm’s attorneys argued both cases before the Court, which focused on many issues which had first arisen under Strand. Given the timeliness of Parker and Cedar Grove, the Firm had the unique opportunity to distinguish the original Strand and to answer questions or clarify points the Court had raised during the oral argument on rehearing in Strand held only a few months earlier. On September 18, 2008, the Court issued its three decisions, withdrawing the original unanimous opinion in Strand, upholding Miami Beach and validating the bonds in Strand, Parker and Cedar Grove based upon the validity of the longstanding principles of Miami Beach. This is but one example of the Firm's influence on the shaping of municipal bond finance law in the State of Florida over the last 45 years. Mr. Reid and Jason M. Breth wrote an article on the Strand decision and its meaning entitled: Miami Beach: Receded, Revised and Reaffirmed, which was published in Florida Bar Journal, Feb. 2009. In 2010, the Florida Supreme Court issued a long-awaited opinion in two widely publicized cases, Miccosukee Tribe of Indians vs. South Florida Water Management District and New Hope Sugar vs. South Florida Water Management District (Case Nos. SC09-1817 and SC09-1818). BMO was lead counsel on the appellate case. Here, the Florida Supreme Court upheld the validity of certificates of participation to acquire 73,000 acres of land from U.S. Sugar Corporation for restoration of the Florida Everglades. BMO was also ________________________________________________________________ Proposal to Provide Bond and Disclosure Counsel Services to the City of Clearwater 14 primary trial counsel in the underlying validation hearing which lasted nine (9) days. The opinion from the Supreme Court provided strong precedent for reliance on the public purpose findings by local governments and provided authority for the water management district to purchase more property that would be used for restoration purposes. In 2013, BMO assisted the City of Cape Coral with development and implementation of a special assessment program to fund a substantial portion of their annual fire services and facilities budget. BMO collaborated with Cape Coral's methodology consultant in developing and refining the availability method that allocates a portion of the fire department budget on an equal, per parcel basis among all parcels (developed and undeveloped) and allocates the remaining costs according to the relative value of improvements constructed on developed parcels. Upon imposition of the program, BMO initiated a bond validation pursuant to Chapter 75, Florida Statutes, to validate the fire assessment and the City of Cape Coral’s authority to finance fire protection facilities with proceeds of the assessment. The validation was challenged by eight (8) landowners opposed to the availability methodology. After a four-day trial, the trial court ruled in favor of the City of Cape Coral and upheld the methodology. Several of the contesting property owners then appealed the decision to the Florida Supreme Court which issued its opinion in May 2015 unanimously upholding the fire assessment program and availability methodology. The comprehensive ruling was a victory for Cape Coral, other local governments using or considering the new methodology, and for all municipalities and counties in the state as a validation of home rule authority to select a funding solution that best fits local needs and circumstances. See Morris v. City of Cape Coral, 163 So. 3d 1174 (Fla. 2015). In May 2024, BMO validated a historic $2 billion in revenue bonds on behalf of the Capital Trust Authority ("CTA"), a public agency created under the Florida Interlocal Cooperation Act ("FICA Act"). CTA operates an extensive conduit bond program, under which it issues bonds and loans the proceeds to government entities and other qualified borrowers to finance qualified public projects throughout Florida, and certain projects in other jurisdictions, including affordable housing projects, assisted living projects, and educational facilities, to name a few. Since 2018, $5.5 billion in bonds have been validated by BMO in five (5) separate bond validation actions brought on behalf of CTA and Capital Trust Agency, a related entity with a substantially similar conduit revenue bond program. In July 2024, BMO filed an action to validate $300 million in conduit revenue bonds on behalf of the Florida Municipal Loan Council ("FMLC"), a public agency created by an interlocal agreement under the FICA Act. As authorized by the Act, FMLC operates a conduit bond program, under which it issues revenue bonds and loans the proceeds to other governmental entities to finance capital improvements and facilities. The particular bonds at issue in this validation proceeding were revenue bonds to fund capital projects undertaken by community development districts. Bonds validated under the Act must comply with more complex procedures than most bond validations, which required State Attorneys for four separate circuits to be served and citizens in four separate counties to be given notice and opportunity to be heard. BMO worked cooperatively and proactively with all of the State Attorneys, providing a transparent process whereby all of their questions were addressed, thereby avoiding any objections to the bonds. Following the hearing, the court entered a judgment validating the bonds, as requested in the complaint, in September 2024. The judgement is now final and unappealable. Most recently, the Firm represented the City of St. Petersburg in seeking validation of revenue bonds secured by a covenant to budget and appropriate non-ad valorem revenues to finance a portion of the costs associated with a new baseball stadium together with parking facilities and related capital improvements to replace the aging and outdated Tropicana Field as the venue for regular season home games of Major League Baseball's Tampa Bay Rays. On October 2, 2024, the circuit court issued its final judgment validating the City of St. Petersburg’s authority to issue the bonds for such purpose. The Firm also represented Pinellas County ________________________________________________________________ Proposal to Provide Bond and Disclosure Counsel Services to the City of Clearwater 15 in its validation pertaining to the issuance of bonds secured by tourist development tax revenues, the proceeds of which will finance Pinellas County’s share of the stadium project. The circuit court in that matter entered a judgment granting Pinellas County's request for validation on December 5, 2024. These cases involve complex legal issues regarding the public purposes served by local government financing of professional sports franchise facilities and the covenant to budget and appropriate legally available non-ad valorem revenues. iii. Indicate the capability and willingness of your Firm to hold harmless, indemnify and defend the City for losses, costs and expense arising from liability claims resulting from alleged negligence of your Firm, its officers, employees and subcontractors; describe the liability coverage carried by your Firm. The Firm's current Professional Services Retainer Agreement with the City includes comprehensive indemnification for the City from and against any and all losses, penalties, damages, seftlements, costs, charges, professional fees and or other expenses or liabilities of every kind and character alleged to have been caused by any negligent act or omission of the Firm, its employees, agents and subcontractors. We are capable and willing to continue such indemnification in the event we are selected for Bond Counsel and/or Disclosure Counsel services hereunder. The Firm maintains $20,000,000 (annual limit per claim) and $40,000,000 (in the aggregate) of professional liability insurance with the Aftorneys Liability Assurance Society ("ALAS"), a mutual insurance company owned by its member firms. The self-insured retention thereunder is $250,000 for each claim up to an aggregate of $500,000 and $100,000 on each claim thereafter. The Firm is one of the smallest law firms to have been admifted to ALAS, illustrating the Firm’s exemplary record of accomplishment in the area of compliance in the more than five (5) decades it has existed. ALAS holds a Fitch rating of A which is an equivalent rating to a rating of A- by AmBest (ALAS dropped the AmBest rating in 2016). The Firm currently maintains the following insurance coverage: Policy Type Insurer Coverage Amount Deductible Professional Liability ALAS $20,000,000 $250,000 Worker's Compensation Continental Casualty – CNA 1,000,000 -0- Comprehensive, Auto, General Liability (Business Owner's Policy) Hartford Fire Insurance Company 1,000,000 (primary) 2,000,000 (general aggregate) -0- If requested by the City, the Comprehensive General Liability (Business Owner's Policy) coverage and Business Auto Policy can be endorsed to include the City as an additional insured, and copies of each insurance policy can be provided to the City. ________________________________________________________________ Proposal to Provide Bond and Disclosure Counsel Services to the City of Clearwater 16 iv. Please describe at least one example of an innovative or creative strategy used by the firm in a prior bond issuance. Members of the Firm are noted for excelling at challenging deals. BMO has been extremely innovative in municipal finance throughout its history and is proud of this tradition of innovation in serving the needs of its public finance clients. BMO believes that innovation in public finance does not take place in a vacuum; instead, innovation results when a thorough understanding of a client's financing objectives are combined with an in-depth knowledge of all areas of law potentially affecting the structure of a financing, including state bond and regulatory law, federal income tax law, and federal and state securities laws. As one example of a creative and innovative strategy used by our Firm that is relevant to the City’s proposed parking garage financing, the City of Sarasota issued its $13,595,000 St. Armand’s Paid Parking Area improvements Revenue Bonds, Series 2017A and $2,075,000 St. Armand’s Paid Parking Area improvements Revenue Bonds, Series 2017B in which case our Firm advised the City of Sarasota on how to implement a diversified revenue source as the security for the bonds and source of repayment. On the one hand, it was important for the City of Sarasota to insulate its General Fund budget from the debt service liability associated with the Bonds to finance a parking garage project. On the other hand, it was also important to the City of Sarasota to maximize its rating and minimize its borrowing cost. With a diversified revenue source, the City of Sarasota was able to address both issues. The primary source of repayment was a pledge of revenues generated from parking fees and charges within the St. Armands Paid Parking Area. Then our Firm, with the expertise of Mr. Roe, assisted with the implementation of a special assessment to pay a portion of the debt service of the Bonds. The special assessment was charged to the commercial buildings that benefited from having increased public parking capacity for customers and employees. To provide comfort to the underwriter, investors and creditors that the parking fees and special assessment would be protected, the Firm structured a covenant that limited the ability to take actions (e.g., City Commission actions to reduce or eliminate parking fees) that would materially impact the parking fees and special assessment. Finally, in order to receive the strong credit strength of a covenant to budget and appropriate legally available non-ad valorem revenues ("CB&A") without a direct pledge, we incorporated the CB&A as a back-up pledge that is only available to debtors if the parking fees and special assessment are insufficient to pay debt service. To ensure the bonds where in the best position, our Firm successfully validated the bonds to ensure that the sources of security were properly drafted and implemented. The Firm has in-house Section 103 tax attorneys and does not subcontract out tax work to other firms. The head of BMO's Tax Practice, Mr. Marcinko, served as an attorney-advisor in the Office of Chief Counsel to the IRS, where he was responsible for the development of income tax regulations and proposed legislation in the tax-exempt bond area. He was the principal author of final regulations relating to arbitrage bonds which still serve today as the basis for many of the federal income tax rulings. Mr. Reid holds a Master of Law in taxation from the University of Florida, having graduated at the top of his class. The Firm has two (2) additional tax lawyers, Mr. Milford and Sabine E. Montas, who focus all of their time on federal tax issues, including issues arising under Section 103 of the Internal Revenue Code. No other Florida firm can replicate anywhere near this same amount of resources dedicated to federal tax issues in the Florida public finance area, and in particular, to this region of the country. ________________________________________________________________ Proposal to Provide Bond and Disclosure Counsel Services to the City of Clearwater 17 Attorneys at BMO have been at the forefront of developing innovative programs that have helped the State of Florida and its local governments save millions of dollars. Examples include: • The creation of pooled loan programs, including the Sunshine State Governmental Financing Commission and the First Florida Governmental Financing Commission, which have allowed local governments to pool loans together in order to reduce issuance costs and achieve economies of scale; • Significant involvement in the concept of "covenant to budget and appropriate" financings, which has allowed governments the ability to issue long-term debt with less restrictive covenants and without pledging specific revenue sources; • Validation of the first bonds in Florida for the purpose of funding deficits in pension funds, resolving issues related to whether such bonds could only be issued for "capital projects;" • Participation in the issuance of the first bonds in Florida to fund OPEB liabilities; • Serving as lead counsel on some of the first transactions in the country where issuers were able to negotiate termination provisions or acceptable intercreditor provisions with municipal bond insurers in light of the severe turmoil in the municipal bond marketplace; and • Development of an innovative program to allow underlying Florida pollution control loans to be securitized, resulting in savings not otherwise achievable in a traditional advance refunding. BMO attorneys are completely familiar with all financings, both publicly offered bonds and direct placement bonds and notes with banking institutions, having served the City of Clearwater as its Bond Counsel for at least the last 25 years, and as such are intimately familiar with the City’s Charter, processes and procedures, as well as the City's staff members involved with issuance of debt obligations. This means our Firm will not face a learning curve when evaluating and structuring innovative legal solutions to the City’s complex financing challenges. BMO attorneys possess a collective wealth of understanding in the identification and development of statutory and home rule funding sources for local governments, including a high level of familiarity and understanding of the State Constitution and case law requirements for valid special assessments and the use of both ad valorem and non-ad valorem funding sources. We have unparalleled experience in cooperatively developing, drafting and preparing programs which comport with the stringent requirements of the statutory uniform method for levy and collection of non-ad valorem assessments. Our work in this area has contributed significantly to the Firm's standing as a recognized leader in developing special assessment programs and validating related bond issues before local courts and the Florida Supreme Court. In most instances where the Firm is engaged to develop a special assessment program to fund capital improvements, BMO also acts as Bond Counsel in structuring the related financing. The Firm's experience in this regard is showcased by its involvement in the development, structuring, implementation and validation of the two-tiered special assessments imposed by the City of Marco Island in order to finance wastewater collection and capacity improvements in the context of its Septic Tank Replacement Program. The Firm's work to date has involved drafting the resolutions necessary for initiating the process and final imposition of special assessments in each of the 17 sewer districts and collecting the assessments on the annual property tax bill, preparing and facilitating delivery of the notices for mailing, ________________________________________________________________ Proposal to Provide Bond and Disclosure Counsel Services to the City of Clearwater 18 publication and recording in the public records, attending and acting in a facilitative role during the required public hearings before the Marco Island City Council, assisting with development and implementation of the deferred payment initiative, coordinating efforts of staff and consultants, assisting with finalizing cost estimates for purposes of determining the assessment amounts applicable to each district, annual maintenance and administration of the discrete assessment programs corresponding to each district. The Firm has worked with Marco Island staff on an as-needed basis to address citizen inquiries and new or changing circumstances in each district to ensure conformance of the annual assessments to the policy direction of the Marco Island City Council. With the advent of educational facilities benefit districts under Chapter 1013, Florida Statutes, BMO was the first law firm in Florida to develop and impose non-ad valorem assessments for educational facilities in the Bellalago Educational Facilities Benefit District in Osceola County. Such an endeavor requires an expert understanding of the uniform assessment and collection of non-ad valorem assessments pursuant to Section 197.3632, Florida Statutes. Additionally, BMO assisted the City of Mulberry in revising and refining its fire assessment program and obtaining a judicial validation of the remedial actions taken. BMO was instrumental in successfully resurrecting failed capital improvement bonds secured by assessments for the Sun 'n Lake of Sebring Improvement District in Highlands County (the "Improvement District") and assisted the Improvement District and its bondholders in developing and obtaining a judicial validation of restated implementing resolutions for assessments and bonds that had gone unpaid for several years. The Firm also developed an innovative alternative to fire assessment apportionment which dispenses with complicated data sets (call records, land use categories, etc.) required by typical demand-based methodologies. The approach addresses a mixed bag of legal, procedural, practical and policy elements and utilizes a simple, two-tiered methodology where a portion of the costs associated with readiness-to-serve aspects of fire protection are shared equally among all tax parcels on a per tax parcel basis, and the balance of costs are allocated according to the relative improvement value of each tax parcel. The Firm has implemented and validated the methodology on behalf of St. Petersburg, Brooksville, Springfield, Stuart and Cape Coral. BMO provides an in-depth understanding of the legal, procedural and political intricacies of non-ad valorem assessment programs and an appreciation for the constitutional premises and constitutional procedures upon which they must be implemented. Furthermore the Firm has a pragmatic understanding that revenue development programs must not be so complex from the legal defensibility standpoint that they're difficult to implement or not able to be easily embraced by elected officials and affected citizenry. ________________________________________________________________ Proposal to Provide Bond and Disclosure Counsel Services to the City of Clearwater 19 B.

Furnish a proposed contract including fee proposal. Describe the firm’s proposed fee schedule for the proposed services and for various alternative financing methods. Provide separate fee schedules for Bond Counsel versus Disclosure Counsel services. The City intends to award both services to a single firm; however, the City reserves the right to assign these services to separate or different firms if the City deems it prudent to do so. Indicate the impact on the fee structure of a competitive sale versus a negotiated sale. The Firm proposes to enter into an Agreement for Bond and Disclosure Counsel Services in the form which is included as "APPENDIX C: Proposed Form of Contract." Fees for our services as Bond Counsel and Disclosure Counsel in any short or long-term financing are based upon the scope and complexity of our responsibilities, the estimated time we must devote and the size and nature of the financing on which our legal opinion is being rendered reflecting liability. Consequently, the best interest of both parties usually dictate that fee arrangements be agreed upon for each bond issue when the elements of the financing are known and can be considered on a specific factual basis. To be responsive to the Request for Proposal, we propose continuing to provide Bond and Disclosure Counsel services to the City based on proposed fees, as summarized below. If desired by the City, our proposed fees are subject to further negotiation based on additional information. It has been our experience that numerous routine questions arise after bonds have been issued, such as document interpretation, federal tax arbitrage compliance issues and continuing disclosure inquiries. As part of the Firm's philosophy of providing complete Bond and Disclosure Counsel services, the Firm provides such post-issuance bond, tax and disclosure services for its issuers at no additional cost. With the advent of secondary market disclosure rules, the Firm has been assisting its clients in complying with these new requirements through annual reviews. Bond Counsel Services For City issues, whether a negotiated or competitive financing, the Firm would be compensated for Bond Counsel services at the time the bonds are delivered according to the following schedule for revenue bonds issued by the City (excludes hourly work for referendum validation services): Fixed Rate General Obligation Bonds* Fixed Rate Revenue Bonds* Variable Rate Revenue Bonds* First $45,000,000 @$1.30 @1.40 @1.50 $45,000,000 and above @$0.80 @0.90 @1.00 *Per $1,000 principal amount The minimum Bond Counsel fee for direct City issues is $25,000 for publicly offered bond issues and $22,500 for bank loans, and expenses would be reimbursed at actual out of pocket costs as described below. ________________________________________________________________ Proposal to Provide Bond and Disclosure Counsel Services to the City of Clearwater 41 In accordance with the rules adopted by the City for conduit financings, the Firm would be compensated for Bond Counsel services at the time bonds are delivered according to the following schedule: First $5,000,000 @ $5.00 per $1,000 Second 5,000,000 3.00 per $1,000 Next 10,000,000 2.00 per $1000 Next 10,000,000 1.70 per $1,000 In Excess of 30,000,000 1.00 per $1,000 The minimum fee for conduit financings involving industrial development bonds and private activity bonds is $30,000, in accordance with existing policies of the City. Expenses in conduit financings will be capped at $7,500 but subject to negotiation in unusual cases. The Firm understands that fees for conduit financings shall be paid by the obligor and not by the City. Disclosure Counsel Services The Firm would be compensated for its services as Disclosure Counsel with a fee based on 70% of the proposed Bond Counsel fees above—or discounted to 65% of the proposed Bond Counsel fees above if BMO also serves as Bond Counsel on the same issue in order to pass along efficiencies to the City—subject to a minimum fee of $22,500 per issue. Services as Disclosure Counsel in satisfaction of secondary market disclosure requirements will be provided upon request of the City, with the fee negotiated at such time. B. Consulting services may be requested in situations that do not involve a debt issue. Provide a listing of any and all additional charges (i.e. hourly rates) not included in fee proposals. Ongoing consultation with the City on routine matters such as phone conversations, short correspondence, and simple advice on proposed or closed transactions would be provided to the City without additional cost. The Firm will prepare proposed legislation and assist in the passage of general or special laws, if any, necessary to achieve a particular financing, provide referendum and validation services, prepare ruling requests to the IRS for rulings required in a particular financing, seek "no action" letters from the SEC, if required, and perform any other non-routine legal services for which the Firm has a recognized expertise if requested by the City, including, but not limited to, sports facilities, energy conservation projects and alternative energy production, special assessments, community redevelopment projects and procurement services. In addition, members of the Firm’s State and Local Government Practice Group and Labor and Employment Law Group are available to the City for any special project, including litigation and labor and employment issues. Such additional services would be at performed at a negotiated governmental hourly rate (not to exceed $400 per hour) based on the level of the attorney providing the services and the complexity of the matter involved. We would propose as a billing procedure that the Firm consult with the City Attorney on the scope of the requested legal services and agree to both hourly rates and an overall project budget prior to the delivery of any additional services with any billings to be done on a monthly basis. Our Firm recognizes that some engagements (such as legislative services and no adverse tax opinions) do not lend themselves easily to an hourly billing. In these circumstances, we would propose negotiating a fixed fee amount for these services. ________________________________________________________________ Proposal to Provide Bond and Disclosure Counsel Services to the City of Clearwater 42 C. Indicate your Firm’s policy regarding out-of-pocket and/or indirect cost expenses; if your Firm proposes reimbursement from the City, itemize the types of expense and basis of billing for each. The Firm will bill out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with its representation of the City. Usually, expenses associated with an issue of bonds will be billed at the time the bonds are delivered and again after transcripts are completed, but may be billed on an interim basis in the event the closing of a financing is delayed. Such expenses include, but are not limited to, copying documents for distribution, postage, federal express or other delivery charges, filing fees and any necessary travel expenses. All expenses are to be itemized on each invoice, and back-up records are available if so requested by the City. Document reproduction (including printing) is to be billed at the rate of $0.25 a page. It should be noted that with the advent of the internet and use of e-mail to distribute documents, the copying and distribution costs have been considerably reduced. ________________________________________________________________ Proposal to Provide Bond and Disclosure Counsel Services to the City of Clearwater 43 TAB 5 | FORMS Exhibit A – Exceptions, Additional Materials, Addenda Form Compliance with Anti-Human Trafficking Laws Verification of Employment Eligibility Form Scrutinized Companies and Business Operations with Cuba and Syria Certification Form Scrutinized Companies that Boycott Israel List Certification Form Exhibit B – Vendor Information Form Exhibit C – Offer Certification Form Exhibit D – W-9 Form ________________________________________________________________ Proposal to Provide Bond and Disclosure Counsel Services to the City of Clearwater EXHIBIT A Exceptions, Additional Materials, Addenda Form Compliance with Anti-Human Trafficking Laws Pursuant to Section 787.06 (13), Florida Statutes, this form must be completed by an officer or representative of a non-governmental entity when a contract is executed, renewed, or extended between the non-governmental entity and the City of Clearwater.

Certify that the TIN you are giving is correct (or you are waiting for a number to be issued); 2. Certify that you are not subject to backup withholding; or 3. Claim exemption from backup withholding if you are a U.S. exempt payee; and 4. Certify to your non-foreign status for purposes of withholding under chapter 3 or 4 of the Code (if applicable); and 5. Certify that FATCA code(s) entered on this form (if any) indicating that you are exempt from the FATCA reporting is correct. See What Is FATCA Reporting, later, for further information. Note: If you are a U.S. person and a requester gives you a form other than Form W-9 to request your TIN, you must use the requester’s form if it is substantially similar to this Form W-9. Definition of a U.S. person. For federal tax purposes, you are considered a U.S. person if you are: • An individual who is a U.S. citizen or U.S. resident alien; • A partnership, corporation, company, or association created or organized in the United States or under the laws of the United States; • An estate (other than a foreign estate); or • A domestic trust (as defined in Regulations section 301.7701-7). Establishing U.S. status for purposes of chapter 3 and chapter 4 withholding. Payments made to foreign persons, including certain distributions, allocations of income, or transfers of sales proceeds, may be subject to withholding under chapter 3 or chapter 4 of the Code (sections 1441–1474). Under those rules, if a Form W-9 or other certification of non-foreign status has not been received, a withholding agent, transferee, or partnership (payor) generally applies presumption rules that may require the payor to withhold applicable tax from the recipient, owner, transferor, or partner (payee). See Pub. 515, Withholding of Tax on Nonresident Aliens and Foreign Entities. The following persons must provide Form W-9 to the payor for purposes of establishing its non-foreign status. • In the case of a disregarded entity with a U.S. owner, the U.S. owner of the disregarded entity and not the disregarded entity. • In the case of a grantor trust with a U.S. grantor or other U.S. owner, generally, the U.S. grantor or other U.S. owner of the grantor trust and not the grantor trust. • In the case of a U.S. trust (other than a grantor trust), the U.S. trust and not the beneficiaries of the trust. See Pub. 515 for more information on providing a Form W-9 or a certification of non-foreign status to avoid withholding. Foreign person. If you are a foreign person or the U.S. branch of a foreign bank that has elected to be treated as a U.S. person (under Regulations section 1.1441-1(b)(2)(iv) or other applicable section for chapter 3 or 4 purposes), do not use Form W-9. Instead, use the appropriate Form W-8 or Form 8233 (see Pub. 515). If you are a qualified foreign pension fund under Regulations section 1.897(l)-1(d), or a partnership that is wholly owned by qualified foreign pension funds, that is treated as a non-foreign person for purposes of section 1445 withholding, do not use Form W-9. Instead, use Form W-8EXP (or other certification of non-foreign status). Nonresident alien who becomes a resident alien. Generally, only a nonresident alien individual may use the terms of a tax treaty to reduce or eliminate U.S. tax on certain types of income. However, most tax treaties contain a provision known as a saving clause. Exceptions specified in the saving clause may permit an exemption from tax to continue for certain types of income even after the payee has otherwise become a U.S. resident alien for tax purposes. If you are a U.S. resident alien who is relying on an exception contained in the saving clause of a tax treaty to claim an exemption from U.S. tax on certain types of income, you must attach a statement to Form W-9 that specifies the following five items. 1. The treaty country. Generally, this must be the same treaty under which you claimed exemption from tax as a nonresident alien. 2. The treaty article addressing the income. 3. The article number (or location) in the tax treaty that contains the saving clause and its exceptions. 4. The type and amount of income that qualifies for the exemption from tax. 5. Sufficient facts to justify the exemption from tax under the terms of the treaty article. Example. Article 20 of the U.S.-China income tax treaty allows an exemption from tax for scholarship income received by a Chinese student temporarily present in the United States. Under U.S. law, this student will become a resident alien for tax purposes if their stay in the United States exceeds 5 calendar years. However, paragraph 2 of the first Protocol to the U.S.-China treaty (dated April 30, 1984) allows the provisions of Article 20 to continue to apply even after the Chinese student becomes a resident alien of the United States. A Chinese student who qualifies for this exception (under paragraph 2 of the first Protocol) and is relying on this exception to claim an exemption from tax on their scholarship or fellowship income would attach to Form W-9 a statement that includes the information described above to support that exemption. If you are a nonresident alien or a foreign entity, give the requester the appropriate completed Form W-8 or Form 8233. Backup Withholding What is backup withholding? Persons making certain payments to you must under certain conditions withhold and pay to the IRS 24% of such payments. This is called “backup withholding.” Payments that may be subject to backup withholding include, but are not limited to, interest, tax-exempt interest, dividends, broker and barter exchange transactions, rents, royalties, nonemployee pay, payments made in settlement of payment card and third-party network transactions, and certain payments from fishing boat operators. Real estate transactions are not subject to backup withholding. You will not be subject to backup withholding on payments you receive if you give the requester your correct TIN, make the proper certifications, and report all your taxable interest and dividends on your tax return. Payments you receive will be subject to backup withholding if: 1. You do not furnish your TIN to the requester; 2. You do not certify your TIN when required (see the instructions for Part II for details); 3. The IRS tells the requester that you furnished an incorrect TIN; 4. The IRS tells you that you are subject to backup withholding because you did not report all your interest and dividends on your tax return (for reportable interest and dividends only); or 5. You do not certify to the requester that you are not subject to backup withholding, as described in item 4 under “By signing the filled- out form” above (for reportable interest and dividend accounts opened after 1983 only). Form W-9 (Rev. 3-2024)Page 3 Certain payees and payments are exempt from backup withholding. See Exempt payee code, later, and the separate Instructions for the Requester of Form W-9 for more information. See also Establishing U.S. status for purposes of chapter 3 and chapter 4 withholding, earlier. What Is FATCA Reporting? The Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA) requires a participating foreign financial institution to report all U.S. account holders that are specified U.S. persons. Certain payees are exempt from FATCA reporting. See Exemption from FATCA reporting code, later, and the Instructions for the Requester of Form W-9 for more information. Updating Your Information You must provide updated information to any person to whom you claimed to be an exempt payee if you are no longer an exempt payee and anticipate receiving reportable payments in the future from this person. For example, you may need to provide updated information if you are a C corporation that elects to be an S corporation, or if you are no longer tax exempt. In addition, you must furnish a new Form W-9 if the name or TIN changes for the account, for example, if the grantor of a grantor trust dies. Penalties Failure to furnish TIN. If you fail to furnish your correct TIN to a requester, you are subject to a penalty of $50 for each such failure unless your failure is due to reasonable cause and not to willful neglect. Civil penalty for false information with respect to withholding. If you make a false statement with no reasonable basis that results in no backup withholding, you are subject to a $500 penalty. Criminal penalty for falsifying information. Willfully falsifying certifications or affirmations may subject you to criminal penalties including fines and/or imprisonment. Misuse of TINs. If the requester discloses or uses TINs in violation of federal law, the requester may be subject to civil and criminal penalties. Specific Instructions Line 1 You must enter one of the following on this line; do not leave this line blank. The name should match the name on your tax return. If this Form W-9 is for a joint account (other than an account maintained by a foreign financial institution (FFI)), list first, and then circle, the name of the person or entity whose number you entered in Part I of Form W-9. If you are providing Form W-9 to an FFI to document a joint account, each holder of the account that is a U.S. person must provide a Form W-9. • Individual. Generally, enter the name shown on your tax return. If you have changed your last name without informing the Social Security Administration (SSA) of the name change, enter your first name, the last name as shown on your social security card, and your new last name. Note for ITIN applicant: Enter your individual name as it was entered on your Form W-7 application, line 1a. This should also be the same as the name you entered on the Form 1040 you filed with your application. • Sole proprietor. Enter your individual name as shown on your Form 1040 on line 1. Enter your business, trade, or “doing business as” (DBA) name on line 2. • Partnership, C corporation, S corporation, or LLC, other than a disregarded entity. Enter the entity’s name as shown on the entity’s tax return on line 1 and any business, trade, or DBA name on line 2. • Other entities. Enter your name as shown on required U.S. federal tax documents on line 1. This name should match the name shown on the charter or other legal document creating the entity. Enter any business, trade, or DBA name on line 2. • Disregarded entity. In general, a business entity that has a single owner, including an LLC, and is not a corporation, is disregarded as an entity separate from its owner (a disregarded entity). See Regulations section 301.7701-2(c)(2). A disregarded entity should check the appropriate box for the tax classification of its owner. Enter the owner’s name on line 1. The name of the owner entered on line 1 should never be a disregarded entity. The name on line 1 should be the name shown on the income tax return on which the income should be reported. For example, if a foreign LLC that is treated as a disregarded entity for U.S. federal tax purposes has a single owner that is a U.S. person, the U.S. owner’s name is required to be provided on line 1. If the direct owner of the entity is also a disregarded entity, enter the first owner that is not disregarded for federal tax purposes. Enter the disregarded entity’s name on line 2. If the owner of the disregarded entity is a foreign person, the owner must complete an appropriate Form W-8 instead of a Form W-9. This is the case even if the foreign person has a U.S. TIN. Line 2 If you have a business name, trade name, DBA name, or disregarded entity name, enter it on line 2. Line 3a Check the appropriate box on line 3a for the U.S. federal tax classification of the person whose name is entered on line 1. Check only one box on line 3a.

Line 3b Check this box if you are a partnership (including an LLC classified as a partnership for U.S. federal tax purposes), trust, or estate that has any foreign partners, owners, or beneficiaries, and you are providing this form to a partnership, trust, or estate, in which you have an ownership interest. You must check the box on line 3b if you receive a Form W-8 (or documentary evidence) from any partner, owner, or beneficiary establishing foreign status or if you receive a Form W-9 from any partner, owner, or beneficiary that has checked the box on line 3b. Note: A partnership that provides a Form W-9 and checks box 3b may be required to complete Schedules K-2 and K-3 (Form 1065). For more information, see the Partnership Instructions for Schedules K-2 and K-3 (Form 1065). If you are required to complete line 3b but fail to do so, you may not receive the information necessary to file a correct information return with the IRS or furnish a correct payee statement to your partners or beneficiaries. See, for example, sections 6698, 6722, and 6724 for penalties that may apply.

If a new address is provided, there is still a chance the old address will be used until the payor changes your address in their records. Line 6 Enter your city, state, and ZIP code. Part I. Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN) Enter your TIN in the appropriate box. If you are a resident alien and you do not have, and are not eligible to get, an SSN, your TIN is your IRS ITIN. Enter it in the entry space for the Social security number. If you do not have an ITIN, see How to get a TIN below. If you are a sole proprietor and you have an EIN, you may enter either your SSN or EIN. If you are a single-member LLC that is disregarded as an entity separate from its owner, enter the owner’s SSN (or EIN, if the owner has one). If the LLC is classified as a corporation or partnership, enter the entity’s EIN. Note: See What Name and Number To Give the Requester, later, for further clarification of name and TIN combinations.

For interest and dividend payments, and certain payments made with respect to readily tradable instruments, you will generally have 60 days to get a TIN and give it to the requester before you are subject to backup withholding on payments. The 60-day rule does not apply to other types of payments. You will be subject to backup withholding on all such payments until you provide your TIN to the requester. Note: Entering “Applied For” means that you have already applied for a TIN or that you intend to apply for one soon. See also Establishing U.S. status for purposes of chapter 3 and chapter 4 withholding, earlier, for when you may instead be subject to withholding under chapter 3 or 4 of the Code.

Secure Your Tax Records From Identity Theft Identity theft occurs when someone uses your personal information, such as your name, SSN, or other identifying information, without your permission to commit fraud or other crimes. An identity thief may use your SSN to get a job or may file a tax return using your SSN to receive a refund. To reduce your risk: • Protect your SSN, • Ensure your employer is protecting your SSN, and • Be careful when choosing a tax return preparer. If your tax records are affected by identity theft and you receive a notice from the IRS, respond right away to the name and phone number printed on the IRS notice or letter. If your tax records are not currently affected by identity theft but you think you are at risk due to a lost or stolen purse or wallet, questionable credit card activity, or a questionable credit report, contact the IRS Identity Theft Hotline at 800-908-4490 or submit Form 14039. For more information, see Pub. 5027, Identity Theft Information for Taxpayers. Form W-9 (Rev. 3-2024)Page 6 Victims of identity theft who are experiencing economic harm or a systemic problem, or are seeking help in resolving tax problems that have not been resolved through normal channels, may be eligible for Taxpayer Advocate Service (TAS) assistance. You can reach TAS by calling the TAS toll-free case intake line at 877-777-4778 or TTY/TDD 800-829-4059. Protect yourself from suspicious emails or phishing schemes. Phishing is the creation and use of email and websites designed to mimic legitimate business emails and websites. The most common act is sending an email to a user falsely claiming to be an established legitimate enterprise in an attempt to scam the user into surrendering private information that will be used for identity theft. The IRS does not initiate contacts with taxpayers via emails. Also, the IRS does not request personal detailed information through email or ask taxpayers for the PIN numbers, passwords, or similar secret access information for their credit card, bank, or other financial accounts. If you receive an unsolicited email claiming to be from the IRS, forward this message to phishing@irs.gov. You may also report misuse of the IRS name, logo, or other IRS property to the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration (TIGTA) at 800-366-4484. You can forward suspicious emails to the Federal Trade Commission at spam@uce.gov or report them at www.ftc.gov/complaint. You can contact the FTC at www.ftc.gov/idtheft or 877-IDTHEFT (877-438-4338). If you have been the victim of identity theft, see www.IdentityTheft.gov and Pub. 5027. Go to www.irs.gov/IdentityTheft to learn more about identity theft and how to reduce your risk.

APPENDIX E FORM OF APPROVING OPINION APPENDIX F FORM OF CONTINUING DISCLOSURE AGREEMENT 1 OFFICIAL STATEMENT Relating to $1,000,000,000 State of Florida State Board of Administration Finance Corporation Revenue Bonds, Series 2024A (Taxable) INTRODUCTION The purpose of this Official Statement, including the cover page, the inside cover page and the Appendices, is to set forth certain information in connection with the offering of the State Board of Administration Finance Corporation Revenue Bonds, Series 2024A (Taxable) (the "2024A Bonds") being issued by the State Board of Administration Finance Corporation (the "Corporation"). All capitalized, undefined terms used in this Official Statement have the meanings given to them herein and in "APPENDIX C-1, DEFINITIONS." The 2024A Bonds are being issued by the Corporation pursuant to Section 215.555, Florida Statutes, as amended (the "Act"), and other applicable provisions of law, including administrative rules of the Florida Hurricane Catastrophe Fund (the "FHCF"), and certain resolutions of the Corporation and the State Board of Administration of Florida (the "SBA") as the administrator of the FHCF adopted on October 25, 2023. The Corporation has no business activities other than serving as a conduit issuer for the FHCF and facilitating the issuance of revenue bonds and other forms of indebtedness for the FHCF. See "AUTHORITY FOR THE ISSUANCE OF 2024A BONDS" herein. The proceeds of the 2024A Bonds, together with other available funds, will be used to (i) provide funds to enable the FHCF to make reimbursement payments to Participating Insurers for reimbursable Losses caused by any Future Covered Events, subject to the limitations on such reimbursements set forth in the Act, and (ii) pay certain expenses incurred in connection with the issuance of the 2024A Bonds. Future Covered Events means any one storm to be declared a hurricane by the National Hurricane Center, which storm causes insured losses in the State, provided such hurricane occurs in the Contract Year beginning June 1, 2024 and ending May 31, 2025 and any Future Contract Years. The proceeds from the sale of the 2024A Bonds will be held and invested by the SBA and will not be commingled with the proceeds of the 2020A Bonds. See "ESTIMATED SOURCES AND USES OF FUNDS" and "INVESTMENT POLICY OF THE FHCF" herein. The 2024A Bonds will be issued by the Corporation pursuant to a Master Trust Indenture dated as of June 1, 2006, as amended by a Seventh Supplemental Indenture, dated as of March 1, 2016 (the "Seventh Supplemental Indenture"), and as supplemented by a Ninth Supplemental Indenture, to be dated as of May 1, 2024 (collectively, the "Master Indenture"), each with Regions Bank, Jacksonville, Florida (successor to Wells Fargo Bank, N.A.), the Master Trustee, Paying Agent, Authenticating Agent and Bond Registrar (the "Master Trustee"). The 2024A Bonds will be issued on a parity basis with the Corporation’s Revenue Bonds, Series 2020A, outstanding in the principal amount of $3,500,000,000 (the "2020A Bonds"), and any future Parity Obligations. The 2020A Bonds were issued as Pre-Event Parity Obligations. The 2024A Bonds will be secured by Pledged Collateral consisting primarily of: (i) Reimbursement Premiums and investment earnings thereon (after provision for Current Expenses of the FHCF and the 2 Corporation), (ii) investment earnings on proceeds of Parity Obligations, including the 2024A Bonds, and (iii) any Emergency Assessments (the "Assessments") and investment earnings thereon, all pursuant to the Pledge and Security Agreement, dated as of June 1, 2006, as amended, among the Corporation, the FHCF and the Master Trustee (the "Pledge Agreement"). The 2024A Bonds are additionally secured by the proceeds of the 2024A Bonds prior to being withdrawn to reimburse Participating Insurers for Losses relating to any Future Covered Events. See "PLEDGE AND SECURITY FOR 2024A BONDS" herein for a discussion of the Pledge Agreement and the Pledged Collateral. The 2020A Bonds and the 2024A Bonds are not secured by the Parity Common Reserve Account or any Special Reserve Account. Pledged Collateral also includes net receipts from Derivative Agreements, if any, and other Pledged Money. There are no Derivative Agreements currently outstanding and the Corporation, the FHCF and the SBA do not expect to enter into any Derivative Agreements with respect to the 2024A Bonds or the 2020A Bonds. See "PLEDGE AND SECURITY FOR 2024A BONDS" herein for a discussion of the Pledge Agreement and the Pledged Collateral. The Corporation is an instrumentality of the State of Florida (the "State"), and its obligations are exclusively secured by the Pledged Collateral.The 2024A Bonds shall not constitute a debt of the State, and holders of the 2024A Bonds shall have recourse only against the Pledged Collateral. The Corporation has no general taxing power nor does it have the power to pledge the credit, the revenues or the taxing power of the State. Neither the credit, the revenues nor the taxing power of the State shall be deemed to be pledged to the payment of the 2024A Bonds. Under the Pledge Agreement, the FHCF is required to transfer to the Master Trustee all Reimbursement Premiums, and investment earnings thereon (net of Current Expenses of the FHCF), investment earnings on proceeds of Outstanding Parity Obligations, including the 2024A Bonds, and any Assessments received by the FHCF. From these amounts, the Master Trustee will (i) from Reimbursement Premiums, pay the Current Expenses of the Corporation (which are insignificant) and provide for debt service on the 2020A Bonds and the 2024A Bonds accruing or coming due during the then-current Fiscal Year (to the extent not paid from investment earnings on proceeds of the 2020A Bonds and the 2024A Bonds), and (ii) transfer all Assessments to an account for the benefit of the Outstanding Parity Obligations. Immediately following the date on which amounts sufficient (i) to pay Current Expenses of the Corporation for the current Fiscal Year have been transferred to the Corporation or a Depository on its behalf and (ii)(a) to pay debt service on all Outstanding Parity Obligations payable or accruing during the then current Fiscal Year and (b) taking into account projected receipts of Reimbursement Premiums to be transferred or otherwise available to the Master Trustee in the next succeeding Fiscal Year, to pay interest on all Outstanding Pre-Event Parity Obligations for the next succeeding Fiscal Year, have been transferred to the Master Trustee, any Reimbursement Premiums, and investment earnings thereon, and investment earnings on proceeds of Pre-Event Parity Obligations received by the FHCF from such date until the end of the Fiscal Year are released from the lien of the Pledge Agreement and Master Indenture. Once Reimbursement Premiums, and investment earnings thereon, sufficient to pay such amounts have been transferred or are otherwise available to the Corporation or Master Trustee, as applicable, the requirement to transfer Reimbursement Premiums, and investment earnings thereon, to the Master Trustee ceases for the remainder of the then current Fiscal Year and all Reimbursement Premiums, and investment earnings thereon, in excess of such requirement that are in possession of the Master Trustee will be returned to the FHCF to be used for any purpose permitted under the Act. Reimbursement Premiums, and investment earnings thereon, and investment earnings on Pre-Event Parity Obligations released from the lien of the Master Indenture and Pledge Agreement become part of the Corpus of the FHCF, are no longer pledged to 3 payment of debt service on the 2024A Bonds, the 2020A Bonds or any other Outstanding Parity Obligations, and will be available to pay Losses resulting from Covered Events and any other lawful purpose of the FHCF. See "- Corpus and Corpus Earnings Not Pledged" below. To the extent moneys held by the Master Trustee are ever insufficient to provide for debt service on Outstanding Parity Obligations, the Master Trustee will provide notice to the FHCF, which will transfer the Pledged Collateral to the Master Trustee at such times and in such amounts as necessary to provide for such debt service when due. Unlike Reimbursement Premiums, Assessments remain subject to the lien of the Master Indenture and Pledge Agreement even after debt service for the Fiscal Year on Outstanding Parity Obligations has been deposited with the Master Trustee and the FHCF is required to continue to transfer any Assessments to the Master Trustee. Excess Assessments transferred to the Master Trustee may be released from the lien of the Pledge Agreement and Master Indenture if the SBA certifies to the Master Trustee that there are sufficient funds on deposit with the Master Trustee to provide for the payment of debt service when due on Post-Event Parity Obligations for the current and the next Fiscal Year and that there are no deficiencies in the amount required to be on deposit in the Party Common Reserve, any Special Reserve or any account or subaccount in the Bond Fund established for Pre-Event Parity Obligations. Upon the Master Trustee’s receipt of such certificate, Assessments in excess of amounts needed to pay debt service on Post-Event Parity Obligations will be released from the lien of the Master Indenture and Pledge Agreement and will be returned to the FHCF. Such amounts will then be available for any other lawful purpose of the FHCF. See "PLEDGE AND SECURITY FOR 2024A BONDS – Flow of Funds" herein. As of the date hereof, there are no Post-Event Parity Bonds Outstanding and no Assessments are currently being levied. The proceeds of the 2024A Bonds, together with certain other funds of the Corporation, will be deposited into and held in a separate account pursuant to the Pledge Agreement and invested by the SBA consistent with Section 215.47, Florida Statutes, as amended, as described herein, and withdrawn as needed to pay Participating Insurers for Losses relating to any Future Covered Events. See "INVESTMENT POLICY OF THE FHCF" herein. The investment earnings on the 2024A Bonds will be part of the Pledged Collateral, and such earnings, along with earnings on proceeds of Parity Obligations, will be available and are expected to be used to pay debt service on the 2024A Bonds, the 2020A Bonds and any future Parity Obligations. The Corporation anticipates that if proceeds of the 2024A Bonds are used to reimburse Participating Insurers for Losses from any Future Covered Events, it may refinance a corresponding portion of the 2024A Bonds in the approximate amount withdrawn through the issuance of Post-Event Parity Obligations. The timing of any such financing will depend upon a number of factors, including, but not limited to, when the proceeds are needed and market conditions. Alternatively, the Corporation may choose to pay debt service on the 2024A Bonds from Reimbursement Premiums, Assessments or other Pledged Collateral rather than refinancing such withdrawals with Post-Event Parity Obligations. See "PLAN OF FINANCE" and "PLEDGE AND SECURITY FOR 2024A BONDS – Additional Parity Obligations and Subordinated Indebtedness" herein for a description of the Incurrence Test. The Corporation may issue additional Parity Obligations only upon satisfaction of the Incurrence Test and the other terms and conditions of the Master Indenture. The issuance of the 2024A Bonds will satisfy the Incurrence Test. See "PLEDGE AND SECURITY FOR 2024A BONDS – Additional Parity Obligations and Subordinated Indebtedness" and "APPENDIX C-2, MASTER TRUST INDENTURE – Section 704." The Pledge Agreement and the Master Indenture require the FHCF and the Corporation to take certain action if the Revenue Available for Debt Service during a Fiscal Year is insufficient to cover debt service on Outstanding debt of the Corporation by a certain amount (1.25 times the debt service on Outstanding Parity Obligations and 1.00 times the debt service on both the Outstanding Parity Obligations 4 and any Subordinated Indebtedness). See "PLEDGE AND SECURITY FOR 2024A BONDS – Debt Service Coverage Requirement" herein and "APPENDIX C-2, MASTER TRUST INDENTURE – Section 705." Copies or forms, as applicable, of the Master Trust Indenture and the Seventh Supplemental Indenture, the Ninth Supplemental Indenture and the Pledge Agreement are set forth in Appendices C-2, C-3 and C-4, respectively. All references in this Official Statement to the Master Trust Indenture, the Seventh Supplemental Indenture, the Ninth Supplemental Indenture and the Pledge Agreement are qualified in their entirety by reference to the final executed documents. Copies of the final executed documents will be on file at the corporate office of the Master Trustee in Jacksonville, Florida. AUTHORITY FOR THE ISSUANCE OF THE 2024A BONDS General Legal Authority The 2024A Bonds are being issued by the Corporation pursuant to the Act and other applicable provisions of law, including administrative rules of the FHCF, and resolutions of the Corporation and the SBA, adopted on October 25, 2023, authorizing the issuance and sale of up to, but not exceeding, $3,800,000,000 aggregate principal amount of Bonds to be issued as Pre-Event Parity Obligations, which may be issued in one or more series, the first of which is the 2024A Bonds, and authorizing the execution and delivery of the Ninth Supplemental Indenture and confirming the pledge of revenue to the payment of debt of the Corporation pursuant to the Pledge Agreement. $2,800,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of Bonds to be issued as Pre-Event Parity Obligations remains authorized following the issuance of the 2024A Bonds. The 2024A Bonds are being issued as Pre-Event Parity Obligations to provide a source of funds for the FHCF to reimburse Participating Insurers for Losses relating to any Future Covered Events. Under the Act, a Pre-Event financing may be undertaken in the absence of a hurricane upon a determination that such action would maximize the ability of the FHCF to meet future obligations. The SBA has determined, by a resolution adopted on October 25, 2023, that the issuance of the 2024A Bonds will maximize the ability of the FHCF to meet its future obligations. The State Board of Administration Finance Corporation In 1996, the Corporation was created as a public benefits corporation under the Act and as an instrumentality of the State to provide a mechanism necessary for the cost-effective and efficient issuance of debt. In 2014, the Corporation (formerly known as the Florida Hurricane Catastrophe Fund Finance Corporation) adopted a resolution to amend its Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws to conform to the legislative action that changed its name and other statutory and constitutional changes that have occurred since the Corporation’s creation. Under the Act, the Corporation has the power to issue bonds or notes and engage in such other financial transactions as are necessary to provide sufficient funds to achieve the purposes of the Act. The proceeds of debt issued by the Corporation may be used to reimburse Participating Insurers pursuant to Reimbursement Contracts, as defined below, for Losses from Covered Events; to refinance or replace previously existing borrowings or financial arrangements; to pay interest on such debt; to fund reserves; to provide a source of funds to the FHCF to reimburse Participating Insurers for Losses from subsequent Covered Events; to pay expenses incident to the issuance or sale of such debt; and for such other purposes relating to the financial obligations of the FHCF as the SBA may determine. 5 As described in Section 215.555(4), Florida Statutes, “Reimbursement Contracts” means contracts between the FHCF and each insurer writing covered policies in the State to provide the insurer reimbursement in exchange for reimbursement premium paid to the FHCF, and is a condition of doing business in the State. Under the Act, the Corporation has all of the powers of corporations under Chapter 607, Part I (Florida Business Corporation Act) and Chapter 617 (Florida Not For Profit Corporation Act), Florida Statutes, subject only to limitations of the Act, which include, among other things, a provision prohibiting the Corporation from filing for voluntary federal bankruptcy protection as long as the Corporation has any debt outstanding. The Corporation is governed under the Act by a five-member Board of Directors consisting of the Governor or a designee, the Chief Financial Officer or a designee, the Attorney General or a designee, the Director of the Division of Bond Finance of the State Board of Administration, and the Chief Operating Officer of the FHCF. The members of the Board of Directors of the Corporation and the expiration dates of their respective terms in office are set forth below. Member Term Expires Ron DeSantis, Governor, Chairman January 5, 2027 Jimmy Patronis, Chief Financial Officer January 5, 2027 Ashley Moody, Attorney General January 5, 2027 J. Ben Watkins, III, Director of the Division of Bond Finance Indefinite Gina Wilson, CPM, ARe, CPCU, Chief Operating Officer, FHCF Indefinite The officers of the Corporation, who are all employees of the FHCF or the SBA, and the expiration dates of their respective terms in office are set forth below: Officer Term Expires Gina Wilson, CPM, ARe, CPCU, President Indefinite Joel Meyer, Treasurer Indefinite John Brenneis, Secretary Indefinite The Corporation has no administrative staff and uses the staff of the FHCF and the SBA for administrative matters. The Corporation has no business activities other than serving as a conduit issuer for the FHCF and facilitating the issuance of revenue bonds and other forms of indebtedness of the FHCF. The Corporation is treated as a blended component unit of the FHCF for financial statement presentation purposes and does not issue separate financial statements from the FHCF. See "AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS" herein. Upon issuance of the 2024A Bonds, the Outstanding Parity Obligations of the Corporation will consist solely of the 2020A Bonds and the 2024A Bonds. Parity Obligations of the Corporation, including the 2024A Bonds and the 2020A Bonds, are not debts of the State, and holders of Parity Obligations shall have recourse only against the Pledged Collateral. The Corporation has no general taxing power, nor does it have the power to pledge the credit, the revenues or the taxing power of the State. Pursuant to the Act, the Corporation and its corporate existence will continue indefinitely until terminated by law; however, no such law shall take effect as long as the Corporation has any debt outstanding unless adequate provision has been made for payment of such debt. 6 The State Board of Administration of Florida The SBA was created by Article IX, Section 16 of the State Constitution of 1885, as amended, and is governed under Article IV, Section 4(e) of the Florida Constitution. The SBA is composed of the Governor, as Chairman, the Chief Financial Officer and the Attorney General. The members of the SBA and the dates of expiration of their respective terms are set forth below: Member Term Expires Ron DeSantis, Governor as Chairman January 5, 2027 Jimmy Patronis, Chief Financial Officer January 5, 2027 Ashley Moody, Attorney General January 5, 2027 As of the date hereof, all three members of the SBA serve on the Board of Directors of the Corporation. Lamar Taylor currently serves as the Interim Executive Director and Chief Investment Officer for the SBA. On March 26, 2024, the SBA approved Chris Spencer as the next Executive Director of the SBA. Lamar Taylor will continue as the permanent Chief Investment Officer. Until such transition takes place, Lamar Taylor will continue to serve in his current role as the Interim Executive Director. The effective date of the transition has not yet been determined. The SBA fulfills a number of mandates set out under the Florida Constitution and State statutes, including the administration of the FHCF. The SBA appoints a nine-member advisory council (the "FHCF Advisory Council") that serves at the pleasure of the SBA to provide the SBA with information and advice in connection with its administration of the FHCF. As described in the Act, the membership of the FHCF Advisory Council consists of an actuary, a meteorologist, an engineer, a representative of insurers, a representative of insurance agents, a representative of reinsurers and three consumers who are required to be representatives of other affected professions and industries. The FHCF Advisory Council generally discusses policy matters but does not have decision-making authority over the FHCF. The SBA makes all final decisions. The SBA is authorized under the Act to: •enter into agreements for the issuance of debt upon the occurrence of Covered Events and a determination that the moneys in the FHCF are or will be insufficient to reimburse Participating Insurers at the coverage levels selected in the Reimbursement Contracts (the legal liability of the FHCF is limited to its Actual Claims-paying Capacity as defined in Section 215.555(2)(m), Florida Statutes); •direct the Florida Office of Insurance Regulation (the "OIR") to levy an annual Assessment of up to 6% of direct written premium for Losses generated during any one Contract Year (as defined herein) and up to 10% of direct written premium in the aggregate to serve as security for debt issued; •enter into agreements for the issuance of debt in the absence of a Covered Event upon a determination that such issuance would maximize the ability of the FHCF to meet future obligations; and 7 •procure reinsurance from reinsurers acceptable to the OIR for the purpose of maximizing the capacity of the FHCF. The Florida Hurricane Catastrophe Fund The FHCF is a tax-exempt trust fund created by the State Legislature during a special session in November 1993 to address the after-effects from Hurricane Andrew on the Florida insurance market. Hurricane Andrew caused insured and uninsured losses in excess of $30 billion in the State in August 1992. As a result of these losses, 11 insurers were rendered insolvent, and numerous insurers announced plans to cancel or discontinue writing policies covering residential property in the State, threatening approximately 900,000 policyholders with loss of property insurance coverage. In recognition of these circumstances and the general trend of contraction in domestic and international reinsurance capacity in existence at that time, the State Legislature passed legislation creating the FHCF in November 1993 for the purpose of reimbursing insurers writing substantially all of the policies covering residential property in the State for a portion of their catastrophic hurricane losses. The FHCF is not a regulated insurance or reinsurance company under State law, does not issue insurance or reinsurance policies and is not required to have the loss reserves which are required of insurers or reinsurers under State law. The FHCF is administered by the SBA and is not an independent department or administrative unit of the State as defined in Section 20.04, Florida Statutes. FHCF plays an essential role in the State’s insurance market by providing a stable and ongoing source of loss reimbursement for residential property insurers. The FHCF functions similar to a private reinsurer, collecting premiums from residential property insurers and reimbursing them for covered residential losses. The Internal Revenue Service has issued a private letter ruling concluding that the FHCF is an integral part of the State and is therefore not subject to federal income taxation. FHCF’s tax-exempt status and operational efficiencies have generally allowed it to provide reimbursement coverage for less than the cost of comparable layers of private reinsurance, generating premium savings for Florida policyholders. Participation in the FHCF is mandatory for substantially all insurers writing residential property insurance policies in the State (with limited exceptions), including Citizens Property Insurance Corporation ("Citizens") and any joint underwriting association or similar entity created pursuant to law (each a "Participating Insurer"), and is a condition of doing residential property insurance business in the State. Insurers with less than $10 million in aggregate exposure under certain residential property insurance policies are not required to participate in the FHCF. Participation in the FHCF is established through annual Reimbursement Contracts with Participating Insurers that obligate the FHCF to reimburse such Participating Insurers for their respective Losses in excess of their share of an industry-wide loss-retention level. In exchange for this benefit, Participating Insurers pay the FHCF actuarially-indicated Reimbursement Premiums. The FHCF's maximum possible liability under Reimbursement Contracts for the current Contract Year ending May 31, 2024, is $17 billion and will remain at $17 billion for Contract Year ending May 31, 2025, but the legal liability of the FHCF is limited to its Actual Claims-paying Capacity as defined in Section 215.555(2)(m), Florida Statutes. FHCF’s $17 billion in maximum statutory coverage, while subject to adjustment based upon the increase in claims-paying capacity of the FHCF (see “OPERATION OF THE FHCF - Limited Liability of the FHCF and Bonding Capacity Estimates and Assumptions” herein), is legislatively determined and has remained constant since the Contract Year ended May 31, 2013. However, no assurance 8 can be given that the amount of coverage or maximum statutory liability of the FHCF will not be changed in the future. The coverage provided by FHCF is designed to supplement the private reinsurance market. The Florida Legislature has not determined that a need exists to revise such maximum statutory coverage, and inflationary pressures in recent years have been mainly born by the private reinsurance market. See "OPERATION OF THE FHCF" herein for a discussion about the operation of the FHCF, Reimbursement Premiums and Assessments. Paragon Strategic Solutions Inc. ("Paragon"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Aon PLC, provides actuarial and other support services to the FHCF, including services used by the FHCF to estimate losses and establish reserves for Covered Events and set the Reimbursement Premiums. See "OPERATION OF THE FHCF – Administration of the FHCF" for a description of such services. PLAN OF FINANCE The Corporation may issue its Parity Obligations as Pre-Event Parity Obligations or Post-Event Parity Obligations pursuant to the Master Trust Indenture and the Act. Generally, Post-Event Parity Obligations are issued when Losses exceed available liquid resources, are issued on a tax-exempt basis, and are paid from Emergency Assessments. Pre-Event Parity Obligations are issued to provide additional liquidity in anticipation of potential need from future hurricanes, are taxable, and, if proceeds are used to pay Losses, may be refinanced with Post-Event Parity Obligations or repaid from Reimbursement Premiums, Assessments or other Pledged Collateral. The proceeds of Pre-Event Parity Obligations are invested until such time as they may be withdrawn to reimburse Participating Insurers for Losses related to any Covered Events that occur after the issuance of such Pre-Event Parity Obligations. Pre-Event Parity Obligations may be issued in the absence of a hurricane upon a determination that such action would maximize the ability of the FHCF to meet future obligations. The Corporation has authorized the issuance and sale of up to, but not exceeding, $3,800,000,000 of aggregate principal amount of Bonds, which may be issued in one or more series, the first of which is the 2024A Bonds to be issued as Pre-Event Parity Obligations. The 2020A Bonds also constitute Pre-Event Parity Obligations. $2,800,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of Bonds to be issued as Pre-Event Parity Obligations remains authorized following the issuance of the 2024A Bonds. Post-Event Parity Obligations may be issued following the occurrence of a Covered Event (i) to reimburse Participating Insurers for Losses pursuant to Reimbursement Contracts when the SBA makes a determination that the Corpus of the FHCF is or will be insufficient to make such payments, or (ii) to refinance Pre-Event Parity Obligations after the occurrence of a Covered Event or Post-Event Parity Obligations. There are currently no Post-Event Parity Bonds Outstanding. The 2024A Bonds and Other Liquidity The 2024A Bonds will be issued to supplement the FHCF's available cash balance, 2020A Bond proceeds, and reinsurance proceeds, if any, to provide an additional source of liquidity for the FHCF to reimburse Participating Insurers for Losses relating to any Future Covered Events. Proceeds of the 2024A Bonds will not be used to pay reimbursements for prior Covered Events, including Hurricanes Michael, Ian, and Idalia. Proceeds of the 2024A Bonds will be invested consistent with Section 215.47, Florida Statutes, as amended, and the FHCF's investment policy and will be withdrawn as needed to reimburse Participating Insurers for Losses incurred from any Future Covered Events. See "INVESTMENT POLICY OF THE FHCF" 9 herein. Proceeds of the 2024A Bonds, the 2020A Bonds and the FHCF available cash balance may be withdrawn in any order of priority to reimburse Participating Insurers in the event of any Future Covered Events, but the FHCF expects to use its available cash balance prior to drawing upon proceeds of Pre-Event Parity Obligations. See "PLEDGE AND SECURITY FOR THE 2024A BONDS – Withdrawal of 2024A Bond Proceeds" herein. If proceeds of the 2024A Bonds are used to reimburse Participating Insurers for Losses from any Future Covered Events, the Corporation may refinance a corresponding portion of the 2024A Bonds in the approximate amount withdrawn through the issuance of Post-Event Parity Obligations. The timing of any such refinancing will depend upon a number of factors, including, but not limited to, when proceeds are needed and market conditions. The issuance of any Post-Event Parity Obligations to redeem the 2024A Bonds will be subject to the Incurrence Test, which requires, among other things, that Assessments be ordered or levied in amounts estimated to be sufficient to pay debt service on such Post-Event Parity Obligations. See "PLEDGE AND SECURITY FOR 2024A BONDS – Additional Parity Obligations and Subordinated Indebtedness" herein. Alternatively, the Corporation may pay debt service on the 2024A Bonds from Reimbursement Premiums, Assessments or other Pledged Collateral rather than refinancing such withdrawals with Post-Event Parity Obligations. The FHCF purchased $1 billion and $0.92 billion of reinsurance in Contract Year ended May 31, 2019, and Contract Year ended May 31, 2020, respectively, but has not purchased any risk transfer products since that time due to various market factors. Over the life of the 2024A Bonds, FHCF may purchase reinsurance or other risk transfer products, the premium or price of which products may be paid from Reimbursement Premiums for that year. When purchased, the premium or cost of reinsurance is factored into the actuarial formula used in determining the FHCF rates charged to Participating Insurers.

[Remainder of page intentionally left blank] 11 DESCRIPTION OF THE 2024A BONDS General Interest on the 2024A Bonds will be payable semiannually on January 1 and July 1 of each year, commencing January 1, 2025, at the rates set forth on the inside cover page of this Official Statement. The 2024A Bonds will mature on July 1, 2034 in the principal amount set forth on the inside cover page of this Official Statement. Individual purchases of 2024A Bonds will be made in denominations of $1,000 or any integral multiple thereof. The Master Trustee will also serve as Bond Registrar with respect to the 2024A Bonds. Book-Entry-Only System The Depository Trust Company ("DTC") will act as securities depository for the 2024A Bonds. The 2024A Bonds will be issued as fully-registered bonds registered in the name of Cede & Co. (DTC's nominee name) or such other name as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. One fully- registered certificate will be issued for the maturity of the 2024A Bonds, in the aggregate principal amount of such maturity (provided that if the aggregate principal amount of any single maturity exceeds $500,000,000, separate bond certificates shall be issued for each $500,000,000 and any amount in excess thereof and subject to any DTC restrictions on the maximum principal amount of a bond certificate), and will be deposited with DTC. Beneficial interests in the 2024A Bonds may be held through DTC, Clearstream Banking, S.A. or Euroclear Bank SA/NV as operator of the Euroclear System, directly as a participant or indirectly through organizations that are participants in such system. See "APPENDIX D, PROVISIONS FOR BOOK-ENTRY ONLY SYSTEM AND GLOBAL CLEARANCE PROCEDURES" for a description of DTC, Clearstream Banking, S.A., Euroclear Bank SA/NV as operator of the Euroclear System, and certain of their responsibilities, and the provisions for registration and registration of transfer of the 2024A Bonds if the book-entry-only system of registration is discontinued. Optional Redemption without Premium The 2024A Bonds are subject to optional redemption in whole or in part, on or after January 1, 2034, at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2024A Bonds to be redeemed, plus accrued interest to the redemption date. Optional Redemption with Make-Whole Premium The 2024A Bonds shall be subject to redemption on any date prior to January 1, 2034, by written direction of the Corporation, in whole or in part, on any Business Day, at a Redemption Price equal to the Make-Whole Redemption Price. The "Make-Whole Redemption Price" is the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of the 2024A Bonds to be redeemed; or (ii) the sum of the present value of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest to the maturity date of the 2024A Bonds to be redeemed, not including any interest accrued and unpaid as of the date on which the 2024A Bonds are to be redeemed, discounted to the date on which the 2024A Bonds are to be redeemed on a semi-annual basis, assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months, at the Treasury Rate (as defined below) plus fifteen (15) basis points; plus accrued and unpaid interest on the 2024A Bonds to be redeemed to the redemption date. The "Treasury Rate" is, as of any redemption date, (i) the time-weighted interpolated average yield to maturity, assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months, for a term equal to the Make Whole Period of the yields of the two U.S. Treasury nominal securities at "constant maturity" (as compiled and 12 published in the Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15 that is publicly available not less than two (2) Business Days nor more than 45 calendar days prior to the redemption date (excluding inflation indexed securities) or, if such Statistical Release is no longer published, any publicly available source of similar market data reasonably selected by the Corporation most nearly equal to the period from the redemption date to the maturity date of such 2024A Bonds) maturing immediately preceding and succeeding the Make Whole Period, or (ii) if the period from the redemption date to such maturity date is less than one year, the weekly average yield on actually traded U.S. Treasury Securities adjusted to a constant maturity of one year. The Treasury Rate will be determined by the Corporation, and the Make-Whole Redemption Price shall be calculated by the Corporation and provided in writing to the Master Trustee. Notice of Optional Redemption When redemption of 2024A Bonds is authorized pursuant to the provisions of the Master Indenture, the Master Trustee shall give to the owners of 2024A Bonds to be redeemed notice, at the expense of the Corporation, of the redemption of the 2024A Bonds. Notice of such redemption of the 2024A Bonds shall be given by mail, postage prepaid, not more than thirty (30) days or fewer than fifteen (15) days prior to said date of redemption, to the owners of any 2024A Bonds to be redeemed. Such notice shall state: (i) the CUSIP numbers of all 2024A Bonds being redeemed, (ii) the original issue date of such 2024A Bonds, (iii) the maturity date and rate of interest borne by each 2024A Bond being redeemed, (iv) the redemption date, (v) the date on which such notice is mailed, (vi) if less than all Outstanding 2024A Bonds are to be redeemed, the bond number (and, in the case of a partial redemption of any 2024A Bond, the principal amount) of each 2024A Bond to be redeemed, (vii) that on such redemption date there shall become due and payable upon each 2024A Bond to be redeemed, the Redemption Price or Make-Whole Redemption Price thereof, as applicable, or the Redemption Price or Make-Whole Redemption Price thereof, as applicable, of the specified portions of the principal thereof in the case of 2024A Bonds to be redeemed in part only, together with interest accrued thereon to the redemption date, and that from and after such date interest thereon shall cease to accrue and be payable, and (viii) that the 2024A Bonds to be redeemed, whether as a whole or in part, are to be surrendered for at the designated corporate trust office of the Master Trustee at an address specified. Any such notice may be a conditional notice. In the event the conditions stated in such a notice have not been satisfied on the proposed redemption date, such redemption shall not occur and such notice shall be of no further force or effect. Such mailing shall not be a condition precedent to such redemption, and failure to mail any such notice, or any defect in such notice as mailed, shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of the 2024A Bonds for which proper notice was given. In the case of redemption of the 2024A Bonds, the Corporation will select the 2024A Bonds to be redeemed. If the 2024A Bonds are not registered in book-entry only form, any redemption of less than all of the 2024A Bonds shall be effected by the Bond Registrar among owners on a pro rata basis subject to minimum authorized denominations. The particular 2024A Bonds to be redeemed shall be determined by the Bond Registrar, using such method as it shall deem fair and appropriate. If the 2024A Bonds are registered in book-entry only form and so long as DTC is the sole registered owner of the 2024A Bonds, if less than all of the 2024A Bonds are called for prior redemption, the particular 2024A Bonds or portions thereof to be redeemed shall be selected on a "Pro Rata Pass-Through Distribution of Principal" basis in accordance with DTC procedures, provided that, so long as the 2024A Bonds are held in book-entry form, the selection for redemption of such 2024A Bonds shall be made in accordance with the operational arrangements of DTC then in effect that currently provide for adjustment of the principal by a factor provided by the Bond Registrar pursuant to DTC operational arrangements. If the Bond Registrar does not provide the necessary information and identify the redemption as on a Pro Rata Pass-Through Distribution 13 of Principal basis, the 2024A Bonds will be selected for redemption in accordance with DTC procedures by lot. It is the Corporation's intent that redemption allocations made by DTC, the DTC Participants or such other intermediaries that may exist between the Corporation and the beneficial owners be made on a "Pro Rata Pass-Through Distribution of Principal" basis as described above. However, the Corporation can provide no assurance that DTC, the DTC Participants or any other intermediaries will allocate redemptions among beneficial owners on such basis. If the DTC operational arrangements do not allow for the redemption of the 2024A Bonds on a Pro Rata Pass-Through Distribution of Principal basis as discussed above, then the 2024A Bonds will be selected for redemption in accordance with DTC procedures by lot. PLEDGE AND SECURITY FOR THE 2024A BONDS The 2024A Bonds shall not be deemed to constitute a debt of the State, and holders of the 2024A Bonds shall have recourse only against the Pledged Collateral. The Corporation has no general taxing power nor does it have the power to pledge the credit, the revenues or the taxing power of the State. Neither the credit, the revenues nor the taxing power of the State shall be deemed to be pledged to the payment of the 2024A Bonds. General The 2024A Bonds are being issued on a parity basis with the Corporation's outstanding $3,500,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 2020A Bonds and any future Parity Obligations, and are secured by a first lien pledge of the Pledged Collateral consisting primarily of: (i) Reimbursement Premiums and investment earnings thereon (after provision for Current Expenses of the FHCF and the Corporation), (ii) investment earnings on proceeds of Parity Obligations, including the 2024A Bonds, and (iii) Assessments, if any, and investment earnings thereon. The 2024A Bonds are additionally secured by the proceeds thereof pending their disbursement for Losses from any Future Covered Events, as further described herein. Reimbursement Premiums and Assessments are discussed in detail in "OPERATION OF THE FHCF - Reimbursement Premiums" and "- Assessments" herein. Similarly, information relevant to investment of proceeds of Parity Obligations is discussed under the heading "INVESTMENT POLICY OF THE FHCF" herein. For detailed information about Current Expenses of the FHCF, see the table titled “Reimbursement Premium and Earnings Available for Debt Service” herein. The 2020A Bonds were, and the 2024A Bonds and any future Parity Obligations will be, issued pursuant to the Master Trust Indenture and secured thereby and by the Pledge Agreement. The 2020A Bonds and the 2024A Bonds are not secured by the Parity Common Reserve Account or any Special Reserve Account. Withdrawal of 2024A Bond Proceeds All proceeds derived from the sale of the 2024A Bonds shall be deposited and held in a separate subaccount of the Covered Events Relief Fund (the "2024A Bonds Proceeds Subaccount") pursuant to the Pledge Agreement and will not be commingled with the proceeds of any other Parity Obligations, including the 2020A Bonds, or any other monies except interest earnings thereon. The 2024A Bonds will be secured by the proceeds of the 2024A Bonds prior to withdrawal to pay Losses relating to any Future Covered Events. In the event of any Future Covered Event, proceeds of the 2020A Bonds, the 2024A Bonds, and the FHCF’s available cash balance may be withdrawn in any order of priority and used to pay Losses of Participating Insurers. However, the FHCF expects to use its accumulated cash first, before drawing on Pre-Event Bond proceeds. 14 Amounts in the 2024A Bonds Proceeds Subaccount may also be withdrawn to pay debt service on the 2024A Bonds, provided, however, the Master Trustee shall draw first from the Reimbursement Premiums Account, then from the Pre-Event Bonds Investment Income Account and then from the 2024A Bonds Proceeds Subaccount. See "-Flow of Funds" herein. Prior to making any withdrawals from the 2024A Bonds Proceeds Subaccount relating to a Covered Event, an authorized officer of the SBA must certify to the Master Trustee: (i) the expected aggregate amount and monthly schedule for anticipated withdrawals to be made as a result of the Covered Event; (ii) that an amount equal to the estimated interest on the amount withdrawn to pay debt service on the Pre- Event Parity Obligations (including the 2020A Bonds and 2024A Bonds) when due will be deposited with the Master Trustee for credit to the Interest Account for the 2020A Bonds and the 2024A Bonds; (iii) taking into account the anticipated withdrawals, there will be sufficient revenues available to pay debt service on the 2020A Bonds and the 2024A Bonds when due; and (iv) notice of the anticipated withdrawals has been provided to the SBA along with an estimate of the Assessment percentage, if any, that would be necessary to provide for the estimated debt service in each Fiscal Year on debt in an amount equal to the aggregate withdrawals. Holders of the 2024A Bonds will have no right to compel the withdrawal of the FHCF's available cash balance or proceeds of other Parity Obligations prior to the withdrawal of the proceeds of the 2024A Bonds. The proceeds of the 2024A Bonds are expected to be used to pay Losses of Participating Insurers upon the occurrence of one or more Future Covered Events. However, the FHCF can use its accumulated fund balance or bond proceeds in any order to pay claims, and expects to use its accumulated cash first, prior to drawing down bond proceeds. Pledge Agreement Under the Pledge Agreement, the FHCF has pledged to the Corporation the Pledged Collateral, consisting primarily of the following items: (i) Reimbursement Premiums and investment earnings thereon (after provision for Current Expenses of the FHCF and the Corporation), (ii) investment earnings on proceeds of Parity Obligations, including the 2024A Bonds, and (iii) Assessments, if any, and investment earnings thereon. The 2024A Bonds are additionally secured by the proceeds thereof prior to being withdrawn to reimburse Participating Insurers for Losses relating to any Future Covered Events. See “OPERATION OF THE FHCF – Reimbursement Premiums” and “- Assessments” and “INVESTMENT POLICY OF THE FHCF” herein for more detailed discussions of Reimbursement Premiums, Assessments and investment of proceeds of Parity Obligations. For detailed information about Current Expenses of the FHCF and the Corporation, see the table titled “Reimbursement Premium and Earnings Available for Debt Service” herein. Reimbursement Premiums are collected by the FHCF on each August 1, October 1 and December 1. Although there is currently no Assessment, if one were levied in the future, such Assessment would be received by the FHCF continually throughout the year, with the largest amounts due to the FHCF on or about each May 15, August 15, November 15, and March 1. See “OPERATION OF THE FHCF – Assessments – Collection of Assessments” herein. Reimbursement Premiums, and investment earnings thereon, (after provision for Current Expenses of the FHCF and the Corporation) and Assessments received by the FHCF will be transferred to the Master Trustee no less frequently than monthly. To the extent the foregoing is insufficient to provide for debt service on Outstanding Parity Obligations, the Master Trustee 15 will provide notice to the FHCF, which will be required to transfer other Pledged Collateral at such times and in such amounts as necessary to provide for such debt service. The Pledge Agreement provides that any Reimbursement Premiums and earnings thereon are transferred to the Master Trustee net of the Current Expenses of the FHCF. Current Expenses of the FHCF include all administrative expenses, salaries and other compensation expenses; fees and expenses incurred for professional consultants and fiduciaries; refunds related to overpayments of Reimbursement Premiums or refunds of interest related to loss reimbursements or overpayments of Reimbursement Premiums; and the premiums, fees and costs of procuring reinsurance for the FHCF. Current Expenses of the FHCF also include payments required by the Act to be appropriated for funding for local governments, state agencies, public and private educational institutions and non-profit organizations for hurricane mitigation (“Mitigation Payments”). The Act requires that no less than $10 million and no more than 35% of investment earnings of the Corpus of the FHCF be appropriated annually for such Mitigation Payments. The Act limits the required appropriation of investment earnings of the FHCF to $10 million if the SBA determines that an appropriation in excess of that amount would jeopardize the actuarial soundness of the FHCF. In 1997, the Hurricane Loss Mitigation Program was established within the Division of Emergency Management. In 2022, the Florida Legislature enacted House Bill 837 extending the Hurricane Loss Mitigation Program through June 30, 2032. For the Fiscal Year ending June 30, 2024, the FHCF has appropriated $10 million for Mitigation Payments. Current Expenses of the FHCF, excluding reinsurance premiums, have ranged from $17.7 million to $25.2 million per year since Fiscal Year 2014. These amounts include annual Mitigation Payments ranging from $10 million to $13.5 million. The FHCF purchased $1 billion of reinsurance in the Contract Years ended May 31, 2016 through May 31, 2019, respectively, and $0.92 billion of reinsurance in the Contract Year ended May 31, 2020, but has not purchased any risk transfer products since that time due to various market factors. The expense for these Contract Years has ranged from $59.3 million to $62.7 million and is represented on a Fiscal Year basis in the table below. Reinsurance expenses for premiums ceded to reinsurers are reported as an offset to premium revenue in the financial statements, and, when purchased, these expenses are factored into the actuarial formula used in determining the FHCF rates charged to Participating Insurers. Over the life of the 2024A Bonds, FHCF may purchase reinsurance or other risk transfer products. The premium or price of such products may be paid from Reimbursement Premiums for that year; however, such reinsurance is excluded from Pledged Collateral. The following table details the Reimbursement Premiums included in Revenue Available for Debt Service for the last five Fiscal Years, which consists of Reimbursement Premiums and investment earnings thereon net of the Current Expenses of the FHCF and the Corporation, which includes the costs of reinsurance. As shown in the table below, Current Expenses of the FHCF and the Corporation, excluding reinsurance premiums of $62.5 million and $57.4 million in 2019 and 2020, have ranged from $22.2 million to $25.2 million per year. 16 Reimbursement Premium and Earnings Available for Debt Service (dollars in thousands) Fiscal Years ended June 30 2019 2020 2021 2022 2023 Reimbursement Premiums and Earnings $1,114,726 $1,187,679 $1,205,946 $1,211,663 $1,407,187 Current Expenses of the FHCF and the Corporation: Admin, Professional, Personnel, and Other $(6,223) $(6,126) $(6,731) $(6,247) $(6,791) Investment Custodian and Bank Fees (3,814) (3,439) (3,882) (5,445) (5,390) Mitigation Expenses (13,500) (13,500) (13,500) (13,500) (10,000) Reinsurance Expenses(1)(62,544) (57,435) - - - Total Current Expenses $(86,081) $(80,500) $(24,113) $(25,192) $(22,181) Reimbursement Premium and Earnings Available for Debt Service $1,028,645 $1,107,179 $1,181,833 $1,186,471 $1,385,006 (1)Reinsurance expenses are included as Current Expenses of the FHCF. The costs of procuring reinsurance are factored into the actuarial formula used in determining the Reimbursement Premiums charged to Participating Insurers. Reinsurance expenses for premiums ceded to reinsurers are reported as an offset to premium revenue in the FHCF’s financial statements. Source: FHCF. A copy of the Pledge Agreement is set forth in “APPENDIX C-4, PLEDGE AND SECURITY AGREEMENT.” Flow of Funds The FHCF will transfer Reimbursement Premiums, and investment earnings thereon, to the Master Trustee (after provision of Current Expenses of the FHCF) and Assessments, if any, in such amounts and at such times as provided for in the Master Indenture and Pledge Agreement which requires such transfer no less frequently than monthly until sufficient sums are on deposit therewith. Reimbursement Premiums for each Contract Year are due to the FHCF in three installments paid in August, October and December. All Reimbursement Premiums received by the Master Trustee will be deposited into the Reimbursement Premiums Account within the Revenue Fund. To the extent the Master Trustee receives investment income on the proceeds of Pre-Event Parity Obligations or proceeds of any Derivative Agreements, such amounts will likewise be deposited to corresponding accounts created within the Revenue Fund. The Master Trustee will deposit all Assessments, if any, into the Emergency Assessments Account within the Revenue Fund. See “APPENDIX C-2, MASTER TRUST INDENTURE—Section 502.” The Corporation, the FHCF and the SBA do not expect to enter into any Derivative Agreements with respect to the 2024A Bonds and no Derivative Agreements are currently outstanding. Amounts in the Reimbursement Premiums Account will be used to pay debt service on the 2024A Bonds and any outstanding Parity Obligations after providing for Current Expenses of the Corporation. Expenses of the Corporation are insignificant. The Corporation has no business activities other than serving as a conduit issuer for the FHCF and facilitating the issuance of revenue bonds and other forms of 17 indebtedness of the FHCF. Current Expenses of the Corporation are anticipated to consist primarily of the fees and expenses due to the Master Trustee and the Bond Registrar and fees and expenses of the Corporation’s auditors. The Corporation has no staff and only three officers that serve with no compensation: the President (Chief Operating Officer of the FHCF), the Treasurer (Manager of Financial Operations of the FHCF) and the Secretary (Assistant General Counsel of the SBA). To the extent amounts on deposit in the Reimbursement Premiums Account are insufficient to provide for the debt service on the 2024A Bonds and other Pre-Event Parity Obligations or Current Expenses of the Corporation, the Master Trustee will transfer the necessary amounts from the investment earnings in the Pre-Event Bonds Investment Income Account or proceeds of Pre-Event Bonds prior to making any withdrawal from any other account or subaccount. Once Reimbursement Premiums in an amount sufficient (i) to pay Current Expenses of the Corporation for the current Fiscal Year have been transferred to the Corporation or a Depository on its behalf and (ii)(a) to pay debt service on all Outstanding Parity Obligations payable or accruing during the then current Fiscal Year and (b) taking into account projected receipts of Reimbursement Premiums to be transferred or otherwise available to the Master Trustee in the next succeeding Fiscal Year, to pay interest on all Outstanding Pre-Event Parity Obligations for the next succeeding Fiscal Year, have been transferred to the Master Trustee, any Reimbursement Premiums, and investment earnings thereon, and investment earnings on proceeds of Pre-Event Parity Obligations received by the FHCF from such date until the end of the Fiscal Year are released from the lien of the Pledge Agreement and Master Indenture. Once Reimbursement Premiums, and investment earnings thereon, sufficient to pay such amounts have been transferred or are otherwise available to the Corporation or Master Trustee, as applicable, the requirement to transfer Reimbursement Premiums, and investment earnings thereon, to the Master Trustee ceases for the remainder of the then current Fiscal Year and all Reimbursement Premiums, and investment earnings thereon, in excess of such requirement that are in possession of the Master Trustee will be returned to the FHCF to be used for any purpose permitted under the Act. Reimbursement Premiums, and investment earnings thereon, and investment earnings on Pre-Event Parity Obligations released from the lien of the Master Indenture and Pledge Agreement become part of the Corpus of the FHCF, are no longer pledged to payment of debt service on the 2024A Bonds, the 2020A Bonds or any other Outstanding Parity Obligations, and will be available to pay Losses resulting from Covered Events and any other lawful purpose of the FHCF. See “- Corpus and Corpus Earnings Not Pledged” below. Unlike Reimbursement Premiums, Assessments remain subject to the lien of the Master Indenture and Pledge Agreement even after debt service for the Fiscal Year on Outstanding Parity Obligations has been deposited with the Master Trustee and the FHCF is required to continue to transfer any Assessments to the Master Trustee. Excess Assessments transferred to the Master Trustee may be released from the lien of the Pledge Agreement and Master Indenture if the SBA certifies to the Master Trustee that there are sufficient funds on deposit with the Master Trustee to provide for the payment of debt service when due on Post-Event Parity Obligations for both the current and next Fiscal Year. Upon the Master Trustee’s receipt of such certificate, Assessments in excess of amounts needed to pay debt service on Post-Event Parity Obligations will be released from the lien of the Master Indenture and Pledge Agreement and will be returned to the FHCF. Such amounts will then be available for any other lawful purpose of the FHCF. See “PLEDGE AND SECURITY FOR 2024A BONDS – Flow of Funds” herein. As of the date hereof, there are no Post-Event Parity Bonds Outstanding and no Assessments are currently being levied. 18 Corpus and Corpus Earnings Not Pledged Reimbursement Premiums, and investment earnings thereon, and Assessments released from the lien of the Pledge Agreement and the Master Indenture as described above will become part of the Corpus of the FHCF, which will be used to pay Losses resulting from Covered Events and for other lawful purposes of the FHCF. Neither the Corpus of the FHCF nor the earnings thereon is pledged to payment of debt service on the 2024A Bonds or any other Parity Obligations issued under the Master Indenture so that such amounts are available to pay Losses, unencumbered by the lien of the Master Indenture. No Bankruptcy As long as the Corporation has any debt outstanding, neither the FHCF nor the Corporation shall have the authority to file a voluntary petition under Chapter 9 of the Federal Bankruptcy Code or such corresponding chapter or sections as may be in effect, from time to time, and neither any public officer nor any organization, entity, or other person shall authorize the FHCF or the Corporation to be or become a debtor under Chapter 9 of the Federal Bankruptcy Code or such corresponding chapter or sections as may be in effect, from time to time, during any such period. Non-Impairment The State has covenanted under the Act with the holders of debt issued by the Corporation that the State will not repeal or abrogate the power of the SBA to direct the OIR to levy the Assessments and to collect the proceeds of the revenues pledged to the payment of such debt so long as any such debt remains outstanding, unless adequate provision has been made for the payment of such debt pursuant to the documents authorizing the issuance of such debt. Additional Parity Obligations and Subordinated Indebtedness Parity Obligations. The Corporation may issue additional Parity Obligations if it certifies compliance with the Incurrence Test. The requirements necessary to certify compliance with the Incurrence Test differ depending on whether the Corporation intends to issue Pre-Event Parity Obligations, Post-Event Parity Obligations, or Parity Obligations to refund or reissue any indebtedness of the Corporation. For purposes of the Incurrence Test described below, the Debt Service Requirement does not include principal and interest payable from Qualified Escrow Funds. The Corporation may incur additional Pre-Event Parity Obligations if it first certifies to the Master Trustee that (i) the sum of (A) Reimbursement Premiums and Reimbursement Premium Earnings for 12 consecutive out of the most-recent 18 consecutive months, after certain permitted adjustments, and (B) the Assessment revenues that could be derived from multiplying the maximum Assessment percentage permitted under the Act on the date of such certification by the amount of premium on all Assessable Lines (as defined herein) for the most-recent 12-month period, divided by (ii) the Maximum Debt Service Requirement on all Parity Obligations, including the proposed issuance of Pre-Event Parity Obligations, is at least equal to 1.25. The Corporation may incur Post-Event Parity Obligations if it certifies compliance with the Incurrence Test for issuing Pre-Event Parity Obligations and also establishes that sufficient Assessments are being collected or have been ordered to be collected by the OIR on the date of such certification to be 19 assessed to cover 100% of the Maximum Debt Service Requirement for all Outstanding Post-Event Parity Obligations and the proposed Post-Event Parity Obligations to be issued. The Corporation may issue Parity Obligations to refund or reissue any indebtedness of the Corporation, if (A) after taking into account the Parity Obligations proposed to be incurred and the Parity Obligations to remain Outstanding after the proposed refunding or reissuance, the Maximum Debt Service Requirement will not be increased by more than five percent (5%), or (B) the Corporation certifies compliance with the Incurrence Test for issuing Pre-Event Parity Obligations after taking into account the Parity Obligations proposed to be incurred and the Parity Obligations to remain Outstanding after the proposed refunding or reissuance; provided, however, if Post-Event Parity Obligations are proposed to be issued to refund or reissue any Outstanding indebtedness of the Corporation, the Corporation must also certify the existence of the conditions required to issue Post-Event Parity Obligations. The Corporation is required to provide the Master Trustee with a verification report from a nationally-recognized verification agent supporting any determination made in (A) or (B) above with respect to any defeasance of Parity Obligations. See “APPENDIX C-2, MASTER TRUST INDENTURE – Section 704.” Subordinated Indebtedness. The Master Indenture also permits the Corporation to incur Subordinated Indebtedness which will be subordinate and junior in right of payment to the Parity Obligations issued under the Master Indenture. See “APPENDIX C-2, MASTER TRUST INDENTURE – Section 211.” The Corporation has no outstanding indebtedness which is subordinate and junior to the Parity Obligations. Debt Service Coverage Requirement Not later than ninety (90) days after the end of each Fiscal Year, the Corporation and the FHCF must certify to the Master Trustee that the Revenue Available for Debt Service for the prior Fiscal Year (which includes investment earnings on proceeds of Pre-Event Parity Obligations), was at least equal to the greater of (i) one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of the principal and interest (net of capitalized interest) that became due in such Fiscal Year on Parity Obligations and (ii) one hundred percent (100%) of the principal and interest (net of capitalized interest) that became due in such Fiscal Year for Parity Obligations and Subordinated Indebtedness. If the Corporation and the FHCF are unable to certify compliance with the foregoing, each of the Corporation and the FHCF has covenanted to take all actions permitted by law or under the Pledge Agreement, including increasing the rate of Assessment to increase collections of Pledged Collateral to satisfy the debt service coverage requirement. See “DEBT SERVICE COVERAGE – Debt Service Coverage Table” herein. See “APPENDIX C-2, MASTER TRUST INDENTURE – Section 705” and “APPENDIX C-4, PLEDGE AND SECURITY AGREEMENT – Section 4C.” Events of Default and Remedies Under the Master Indenture and the Pledge Agreement, each of the following is an event of default (an “Event of Default”) with respect to any Outstanding Parity Obligations: •The Corporation fails to pay the principal, redemption premium (if any) or interest on any of the 2024A Bonds or Parity Obligations when such amounts are due and payable; 20 •The occurrence of any event of default under a Supplemental Indenture or the Master Trustee shall have received notice from any holder of an event of default under any Parity Debt Resolution; •The Corporation fails to comply with any covenant or agreement under the Master Indenture (other than the covenant to pay principal, redemption premium (if any) and interest when due) and such failure is not cured (or if such noncompliance cannot be cured within the following time period, corrective action is not commenced) within thirty (30) days after the Corporation’s receipt of written notice from the Master Trustee describing the Event of Default and requiring the default to be remedied; •The Corporation fails to make any required payment with respect to Subordinated Indebtedness or any other indebtedness (other than Parity Obligations) and any applicable grace period has expired; and •The State (i) amends, alters or limits the State Covenant providing that the State will not limit or alter the denial of authority of the Corporation to file a petition in bankruptcy, or the rights vested in the FHCF or the Corporation to fulfill the terms of any agreements made with the owners, or in any way impair the rights and remedies of such owners so long as any such Parity Obligations of the Corporation remain Outstanding unless adequate provision has been made for the payment of such Parity Obligations, or (ii) enacts a moratorium or other similar law affecting the Bonds. Immediately upon any Event of Default, the Master Trustee may (and upon the written request of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the holders of Outstanding Parity Obligations, will) proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the holders of the Parity Obligations under the Master Indenture through any means available to it, including: enforcement of the right of the owners and holders to collect and enforce the payment of amounts due or becoming due under the Parity Obligations; suit upon all or any part of the Parity Obligations; civil action to require any Person holding moneys, documents or other property pledged to secure payment of amounts due or to become due on the Parity Obligations to account as if it were the trustee of an express trust for the owners and holders of such Parity Obligations; civil action to enjoin any acts or things, which may be unlawful or in violation of the rights of the Owners and holders; enforcement of any other right of the owners and holders conferred by law or hereby; and enforcement of the provisions of the Pledge Agreement. Regardless of the happening of an Event of Default, the Master Trustee, if requested in writing by the owners or holders of not less than a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Parity Obligations then Outstanding, shall, subject to the Master Trust Indenture, institute and maintain such suits and proceedings as it may be advised shall be necessary or expedient (i) to prevent any impairment of the security under the Master Indenture by any acts which may be unlawful or in violation of the Master Indenture, or (ii) to preserve or protect the interests of the owners and holders, provided that such request and the action to be taken by the Master Trustee are not in conflict with any applicable law or the provisions of the Master Indenture and, in the sole judgment of the Master Trustee, are not unduly prejudicial to the interest of the owners and holders of Outstanding Parity Obligations. In addition to the above-described remedies available upon any Event of Default, the Master Trustee may (and upon the written request of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the holders of Outstanding Parity Obligations, will) accelerate the payment of principal of Outstanding Parity Obligations 21 not yet due and payable upon the Corporation’s failure to pay the principal, Redemption Price (if any) and interest with respect to Parity Obligations for which such amounts are due and payable, and the continuation of such failure for 180 days thereafter. The Master Trustee shall rescind acceleration upon the Corporation’s curing of a payment default. See “APPENDIX C-2, MASTER TRUST INDENTURE – Sections 802-804.” DEBT SERVICE COVERAGE The following table shows historical debt service coverage on the Corporation’s Revenue Bonds, Series 2010A, issued in the original principal amount of $675,925,000, as Post-Event Parity Obligations with a final maturity of July 1, 2016, and which were legally defeased on July 11, 2014 (the “2010A Bonds”), its Revenue Bonds, Series 2013A, issued in the original principal amount of $2,000,000,000, as Pre-Event Parity Obligations with a final maturity of July 1, 2020 (the “2013A Bonds”), its Revenue Bonds, Series 2016A, issued in the original principal amount of $1,200,000,000, as Pre-Event Parity Obligations with a final maturity of July 1, 2021 (the “2016A Bonds”), and its 2020A Bonds issued in the original principal amount of $3,500,000,000, as Pre-Event Parity Obligations with a final maturity of July 1, 2030.

The actual debt service coverage may be different than shown below. Additionally, the debt service coverage table assumes that the proceeds of Pre-Event Bonds are not used to reimburse Losses and are available to pay the principal thereof at maturity. No assurance is given that the proceeds of Pre-Event Bonds will not be withdrawn and used to reimburse Losses. Over the terms of the 2020A Bonds and 2024A Bonds, the Corporation expects the interest expense on those Bonds to exceed the investment earnings on the proceeds of the 2020A Bonds and 2024A Bonds. The interest expense that exceeds the investment earnings on the proceeds thereof is expected to be paid from Reimbursement Premiums.

Totals may not add due to rounding. Source: FHCF. Projected Reimbursement Premium information provided by Paragon/FHCF. 24 OPERATION OF THE FHCF General Participation in the FHCF is established through a Reimbursement Contract between the SBA and each Participating Insurer pursuant to which the insurer promises to pay annual, actuarially-indicated Reimbursement Premiums and the SBA promises to reimburse the insurer at one of three specified coverage levels (45 percent, 75 percent or 90 percent) selected by the Participating Insurer for Losses in excess of such insurer’s Retention, plus a 10% loss adjustment expense allowance, which is within each insurer’s limit and does not increase their total available limit with the FHCF. “Retention” means the amount of losses below which an insurer is not entitled to reimbursement from the FHCF, as provided in Section 215.555(2)(e), Florida Statutes. The legal liability of the FHCF is limited to its Actual Claims-paying Capacity as defined in Section 215.555(2)(m), Florida Statutes. The amount of Reimbursement Premiums paid to the FHCF by the Participating Insurers depends upon the coverage level selected. There are currently 141 Participating Insurers for the upcoming Contract Year ending May 31, 2025, and approximately 89%, 0%, and 11% of the Participating Insurers selected a coverage level of 90 percent, 75 percent and 45 percent, respectively. See “OPERATION OF THE FHCF – Reimbursement Premiums – Collections” herein for a more detailed discussion of Participating Insurers’ coverage selections. The portion of a Participating Insurer’s Losses above its Retention that are not reimbursed by the FHCF due to the coverage level selected by such insurer effectively operates as that Participating Insurer’s “co-payment” for such Losses. Provisions in the FHCF’s Reimbursement Contract provide for the commutation (i.e., final settlement) of Losses for Covered Events 60 months after the end of the applicable Contract Year. Participating Insurers must submit a final proof of loss report, which is used to calculate the last reimbursement to the insurer. The FHCF and the insurer agree on a final payment and if agreement cannot be reached, the contract allows for settlement using a panel of three actuaries. Upon execution of a commutation agreement between the FHCF and the insurer and the issuance of the final payment, the FHCF is completely released and discharged of all obligations under the Reimbursement Contract for any additional reimbursements. Reimbursement Contracts are renewed annually on June 1 of each year for the ensuing Contract Year. The Act sets the FHCF aggregate Retention at $4.5 billion, equal to the Retention for the Contract Year ended May 31, 2004, to be adjusted annually to reflect increased exposure to the FHCF since 2004. Such adjustment is based upon the reported exposure for the Contract Year occurring two years before the particular Contract Year to reflect the percentage growth in exposure to the FHCF for covered policies since 2004, divided by the total estimated reimbursement premium for the Contract Year. Currently, taking into account such exposure growth since 2004, the aggregate Retention is $9.465 billion for the Contract Year ending May 31, 2024 and is projected to be $9.9 billion for the Contract Year ending May 31, 2025. The FHCF aggregate Retention is allocated to each Participating Insurer based on such insurer’s pro rata share of Reimbursement Premiums due for a Contract Year. A Participating Insurer’s share of Retention applies in full to each of the two Covered Events causing the largest Losses for such Participating Insurer in a single Contract Year. For each other Covered Event causing Losses in the Contract Year, the insurer’s share of Retention is reduced to one-third of its share of the full Retention. The Legislature can, and has in the past, reset the Retention by statute to a level lower than what it would have been had full exposure growth been taken into account. The last such reset was during the 2005 Legislative Session, when the retention was reset at the level for the Contact Year that ended May 31, 2004, of $4.5 billion instead of increasing to the $4.96 billion level that accounted for exposure growth. 25 Participating Insurers are prohibited from lowering their mandatory coverage percentage selections from one year to the next as long as any Post-Event Revenue Bonds are outstanding. There are no Post-Event Revenue Bonds outstanding at this time. The coverage provided by the FHCF for any single Contract Year is limited to the lesser of the Actual Claims-paying Capacity of the FHCF or the statutory liability limit of $17 billion, which is subject to adjustment based upon the increase in Estimated Claims-paying Capacity of the FHCF. See “Limited Liability of the FHCF and Bonding Capacity Estimates and Assumptions” herein. Administration of the FHCF The SBA has engaged Paragon as a consultant to provide administrative services to the FHCF. Paragon has served in this capacity since the inception of the FHCF and provides day-to-day support for a variety of activities, including: coordinating the annual distribution and collection of the Reimbursement Contracts and insurer reporting requirements; processing reports of insured values; calculating, invoicing and collecting Reimbursement Premiums; and processing loss reimbursement payment requests. Paragon also provides actuarial consulting services to the FHCF which include the development of the annual ratemaking report and the actuarial formula used in determining the Reimbursement Premiums, as well as the FHCF’s loss reserve analysis. Fees paid to Paragon for its services are considered Current Expenses of the FHCF under the Master Indenture and are reflected along with other FHCF expenses in the line item Administrative, Professional, Personnel and Other under “Historical Summary of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Net Assets” herein. Moneys in the FHCF may be expended, loaned or appropriated for payment of (i) obligations of the FHCF arising out of Reimbursement Contracts; (ii) debt service on any debt permitted under the Act; (iii) costs of mitigation programs under the Act; (iv) costs of procuring reinsurance; and (v) costs related to the administration of the FHCF. In addition, the FHCF has the authority to enter into other capital market transactions, including, but not limited to, catastrophe bonds, futures and options contracts traded on a regulated exchange, industry loss warranties, and side-car arrangements. The FHCF is currently not a party to any reinsurance or other capital markets transactions. Funding for the reimbursable Losses under Reimbursement Contracts comes predominantly from four sources: (i) the Corpus (accumulated fund balance) of the FHCF, (ii) Reimbursement Premiums, (iii) reinsurance contracts, if any, and (iv) the issuance of debt (either Pre-Event or Post-Event Bonds) by the Corporation for the benefit of the FHCF. In addition, Assessments that are not needed to pay debt service on the Parity Obligations may be used to pay reimbursable Losses. Senior staff of the FHCF and officers of the Corporation include the following. Gina Wilson, CPM, ARe, CPCU, is the Chief Operating Officer of the FHCF for the State Board of Administration, and the President of the Corporation. Ms. Wilson serves on the Florida Commission on Hurricane Loss Projection Methodology and has the additional responsibility of overseeing the Insurance Capital Build-up Incentive Program, the Reinsurance to Assist Policyholders Program, and the Florida Optional Reinsurance Assistance Program. She has worked with the FHCF since October 1996, previously serving as the Senior Director of Operations and Examinations. She worked for the Florida Department of Insurance prior to joining the FHCF and has also worked as an auditor in the private industry. Ms. Wilson received her Bachelor of Business Administration from Georgia Southwestern University. She has met the 26 State of Georgia requirements for licensing as a Certified Public Accountant and is member of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. Ms. Wilson also has the professional designations of Certified Public Manager (CPM) from Florida State University, Associate in Reinsurance (ARe), and Chartered Property and Casualty Underwriter (CPCU). Toma Wilkerson is the Director of Operations of the FHCF. She is responsible for assisting the Chief Operating Officer in matters related to the management of the financial and administrative operations of the FHCF. Prior to her position as the Director of Operations she was the Director of the Division of Rehabilitation and Liquidation at the Florida Department of Financial Services (the “Department”) where she directed the administration of insurance company insolvencies for seven years. Prior to being appointed as Division Director, she worked for the OIR for 18 years in various financial solvency positions, but most recently as the Director of Life and Health Financial Oversight, where she was responsible for the financial evaluation of life and health insurers in Florida. John Brenneis is Assistant General Counsel of the SBA and the Secretary of the Corporation. As Assistant General Counsel, Mr. Brenneis’ practice areas include private funds, fixed income matters and bond finance. Prior to joining the SBA in 2011, Mr. Brenneis was the General Counsel of the Florida Department of Management Services beginning in 2007.

Mr. Brenneis received his Juris Doctorate degree and Bachelor of Science degrees in Accounting and Finance from the Florida State University and is a Certified Public Accountant (inactive). Mary Linzee Branham is the Director of Legal and Risk Operations of the FHCF. She is responsible for assisting with and keeping the Chief Operating Officer apprised of all legal, risk management, legislative and rulemaking activities. She came to the FHCF in November 2019, after three and a half years as the Assistant Division Director of the Division of Rehabilitation and Liquidation at the Department, eight years in private law practice and two years as an Assistant Public Defender in the Office of the Public Defender, Thirteenth Judicial Circuit. Ms. Branham earned her Bachelor of Arts degree in History, with a minor in Criminology, from the University of Florida and her Juris Doctorate from Florida State University College of Law. Ms. Branham is a member of the Florida Bar. Joel Meyer is the Manager of Financial Operations of the FHCF and Treasurer of the Corporation. Mr. Meyer joined the FHCF in December 2017 and is responsible for all matters related to the financial operations of the FHCF and the Corporation, as well as the administration of the Insurance Capital Build- up Incentive Program. Prior to joining the FHCF, Mr. Meyer was a Financial Administrator for the OIR’s Division of Property and Casualty Financial Oversight, where his responsibilities included administrative and technical supervision of property and casualty staff in the examination, investigation and analysis of insurance companies’ financial condition and oversight of the annual reinsurance data calls and catastrophe stress test of insurance companies. Mr. Meyer received his Bachelor of Arts degree in Economics from Lenoir-Rhyne University. He has earned the Professional in Insurance Regulation (PIR) designation from the NAIC and two state of Florida insurance licenses, which are currently in an inactive status. Prior to his work at the OIR, Mr. Meyer worked in insurance and banking in the private sector. Limited Liability of the FHCF and Bonding Capacity Estimates and Assumptions Under the Act, the maximum liability of the FHCF to reimburse Participating Insurers for Losses attributable to any single Contract Year is limited to the lesser of (i) the Actual Claims-paying Capacity of the FHCF, and (ii) the statutory liability limit. For the Contract Year ending May 31, 2024 and projected 27 coverage for Contract Year ending May 31, 2025, the FHCF estimates that its maximum statutory liability is $17 billion. Beginning with the Contract Year that ended May 31, 2011, the Act set the base-line statutory liability limit for coverage at $17 billion. Prior to May 31, 2011, the Act had set a base-line statutory liability limit for coverage at $15 billion. The Corporation can provide no assurance that the base-line statutory liability limit for coverage will not be legislatively revised again in the future. The Act further provides that the base-line statutory liability limit for coverage of $17 billion may be increased if the SBA determines that there is sufficient Estimated Claims-paying Capacity to provide coverage at $17 billion of capacity for the then current Contract Year and coverage of an additional $17 billion of capacity for the subsequent Contract Year. If the SBA makes such a determination, the Estimated Claims-paying Capacity for the particular Contract Year shall be determined by adding to the $17 billion limit, one-half of the FHCF’s Estimated Claims-paying Capacity in excess of $34 billion. No such adjustments to the statutory limit has ever been made. The Estimated Claims-paying Capacity is the FHCF’s projected fund balance as of December 31, plus any reinsurance purchased by the FHCF, plus estimated borrowing capacity for each year. Under the Act, the FHCF may issue revenue bonds in any year in which the FHCF is required to reimburse Participating Insurers for Losses in excess of the FHCF available fund balance. The maximum amount of bonding is limited to the debt which can be serviced based upon a 6% annual Assessment percentage on direct written premium for Losses in any one Contract Year and no more than an aggregate annual assessment of 10% in total. The Estimated Claims-paying Capacity of the FHCF must take into account constraints in the financial markets that may limit the FHCF's ability to borrow funds, including the potential unwillingness of financial market participants to lend funds to the FHCF at the maximum limit under the Act. Credit market disruptions may limit the FHCF’s borrowing capacity. Also, there can be no guarantee that sufficient market capacity will exist should the FHCF be required to issue a large amount of debt. If market constraints reduce the FHCF's Actual Claims-paying Capacity below the maximum statutory liability, the FHCF's liability under the Reimbursement Contracts will be capped at the lower amount. The FHCF formulates estimates of its bonding capacity semi-annually with the assistance of its Financial Advisor and senior managing underwriters. The most recent bonding capacity estimates prepared in October 2023 show for the 2023 hurricane season an estimated aggregate bonding capacity of $9.3 billion in Post-Event Parity Obligations. The FHCF’s projected fund balance of $6.9 billion plus the available 2020A Bond proceeds of $3.5 billion and the 2024A Bond proceeds of $1.0 billion would result in a maximum need of Post-Event Parity Obligations of $5.6 billion to meet its projected $17 billion statutory maximum liability for the Contract Year ending May 31, 2025. The FHCF’s bonding capacity estimates will be updated in May 2024. [Remainder of page intentionally left blank] 28 The table below shows the estimated bonding needed following issuance of the 2024A Bonds to satisfy the FHCF’s maximum statutory liability of $17 billion and the estimated Assessment percentage necessary to pay the debt service on the estimated bonding need.

(2) Assumes that the FHCF will draw on its existing and projected Pre-Event Parity Obligations and issue Post-Event Parity Obligations of approximately $10.1 billion structured for approximate 30-year level annual debt service. Of the $10.1 billion in assumed issuance, approximately $5.6 billion would be used to reimburse Losses and $4.5 billion would be used to refinance the withdrawals of Pre-Event Parity Obligations used to reimburse Losses. The FHCF could alternatively choose to pay debt service on the Pre-Event Parity Obligations that are drawn upon with Reimbursement Premiums, Assessments, or any other Pledged Collateral rather than refinancing such withdrawals with Post-Event Parity Obligations.The Assessment percentage is derived from the 2023 assessment base of $85.2 billion.

The likelihood that the FHCF will be called on to reimburse losses up to its maximum statutory liability limit depends on several factors, but prominent among these are the insured value of property for which the coverage is provided by the FHCF and the likelihood of a major hurricane damaging or destroying such property. The following table shows the total insured values reported to the FHCF by Participating Insurers for the last five years and the annual percentage increase from the prior year. The incidence and severity of catastrophic hurricanes are inherently unpredictable. Coastal areas appear to be at the highest risk of hurricane damage based upon historical experience and loss model results. Coastal development over the years has significantly changed the risk profile of hurricane-prone coastal areas. According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s Office of Coastal Management, over 76% of Florida’s population lives in coastal areas. 29 Total Insured Values Contract Year Ended May 31 Amount (in trillions) Percentage Change 2021 $2.499 5.5% 2022 2.659 6.4 2023 2.914 9.6 2024 3.306 13.5 2025(1)3.615 9.4 (1) Projected.

Source: Paragon, 2024 FHCF Ratemaking Formula Report, Exhibit IX. FHCF Financial Position – Basic Mechanics Participating Insurers pay the FHCF a Reimbursement Premium based on their proportionate residential risk exposure share in the State. Participating Insurers must meet a specified level of losses before FHCF reimbursement begins (i.e., Retention); analogous to a deductible on an insurance policy. Aggregate Industry Retention is projected to be $9.9 billion for the Contract Year ending May 31, 2025. After a Participating Insurer’s individual Retention is met, the FHCF reimburses the insurer for 45%, 75% or 90% of its covered residential losses depending on that Participating Insurer’s coverage selection, and the Participating Insurer must pay the remaining portion (analogous to a co-payment on an insurance policy). 30 Reimbursement provided by the FHCF for any single Contract Year is limited to the lesser of the Actual Claims-paying Capacity of the FHCF or the statutory liability limit of $17 billion. The FHCF’s limit is subject to adjustment based upon the increase in claims-paying capacity of the FHCF. The FHCF’s total liability for the Contract Years ending May 31, 2024, and May 31, 2025, is limited statutorily to $17 billion. The FHCF’s maximum annual statutory liability of $17 billion has been unchanged since 2013. The following chart depicts the coverage that the FHCF projects to provide and all other sources for paying losses relative to the total storm losses that Participating Insurers could be required to pay for the current Contract Year. In the event of a large Covered Event, the Projected Fund Balance and Pre-Event Bond proceeds are available to pay claims, while the remaining balance of coverage would be provided for by Post-Event financing, if needed. The FHCF’s projected coverage for the 2024-2025 season (as of April 22, 2024) includes: •$6.9 billion from projected year-end fund balance; •$3.5 billion from 2020A Bond proceeds; •$1.0 billion from 2024A Bond proceeds; and •$5.6 billion of potential Post-Event bonding capacity. [Remainder of page intentionally left blank] 3131 In this chart the relevant data are aggregated for FHCF Participating Insurers. Each Participating Insurer has its own Retention and maximum coverage level. Every Participating Insurer would need to reach their maximum coverage limit in order to exhaust the full $17 billion of FHCF coverage.Individual Participating Insurers can trigger coverage below the industry-wide aggregate Retention. Historical Summary of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Net Position From Fiscal Year 2010 to Fiscal Year 2017, the net position of the FHCF and the Corporation increased by 333%, going from $3.23 billion to a high of $13.98 billion. Subsequently, the State began experiencing increased hurricane activity which drove an increase in loss reimbursement requests from Participating Insurers, with the payment of loss reimbursements from Covered Events reducing the FHCF's net position in the subsequent Fiscal Years.The following schedule shows the revenues, expenses and changes in net assets of the FHCF, derived from audited financial information of the FHCF and the Corporation for Fiscal Years ended June 30, 2019 through and including June 30, 2023.

For Hurricane Irma, loss reserves totaled $2.5 billion at the end of Fiscal Year 2018. Fiscal Year 2019 included additional loss reserves of $2.5 billion, Fiscal Year 2020 included additional loss reserves of $1.5 billion, and Fiscal Year 2021 included additional loss reserves of $1.3 billion. Fiscal Year 2023 included an approximately $200 million reserve decrease and final commutation was completed in the Fall of 2023, which reduced the final Hurricane Irma loss from $7.8 billion to $7.5 billion. For Hurricane Michael, Fiscal Year 2019 included loss reserves of $1.45 billion and that loss reserve remains unchanged in Fiscal Year 2023. For Hurricane Ian, an initial $10 billion loss reserve was set during Fiscal Year 2023. For Hurricane Idalia, an initial $30 million loss reserve was set during Fiscal Year 2024. See "Historical Payments of Claims" herein for the history of FHCF reimbursements paid to insurers since 2004. (2) Changes to non-operating revenue were due primarily to changes in investment income.

Financial Impacts of Recent Hurricanes on the FHCF Since 1995, the FHCF has paid reimbursements to Participating Insurers for Losses from 13 Covered Events totaling approximately $21.8 billion as of March 31, 2024. The most recent Losses, which are not yet fully reimbursed, are from Hurricane Michael in 2018, Hurricane Ian in 2022 and Hurricane Idalia in 2023. As of March 31, 2024, FHCF’s actuary estimates that the FHCF will incur total losses of $10.8 billion from these storms, with approximately $4.8 billion of Losses reimbursed by the FHCF as of March 31, 2024. The Loss estimates for each of these Hurricanes is an actuarial estimate and is subject to revision 33 as additional information becomes available. FHCF has reserved the $6.0 billion needed to cover the remaining estimated total Loss reimbursements from the three hurricanes, and the amounts reserved are not included in the FHCF’s projected fund balance as of December 31, 2024. On October 10, 2018, Hurricane Michael made landfall at Mexico Beach, Florida as a Category 5 hurricane. The FHCF’s actuary estimates that the FHCF will incur total Losses of $1.31 billion related to Hurricane Michael. Losses reimbursed by the FHCF for Hurricane Michael as of March 31, 2024, totaled $1.16 billion. On September 28, 2022, Hurricane Ian made landfall near Cayo Costa, Florida, as a Category 4 hurricane. The FHCF’s actuary estimates that the FHCF will incur total Losses of $9.5 billion related to Hurricane Ian. Losses reimbursed by the FHCF for Hurricane Ian as of March 31, 2024, totaled $3.67 billion. On August 30, 2023, Hurricane Idalia made landfall near Keaton Beach, Florida, as a Category 3 hurricane. The FHCF’s actuary estimates that the FHCF will incur total Losses of $20 million related to Hurricane Idalia. Losses reimbursed by the FHCF for Hurricane Idalia as of March 31, 2024, totaled $146,000. The Losses from these storms are subject to the commutation provisions in the Reimbursement Contract, as discussed in "OPERATION OF THE FHCF – FHCF Coverage" herein. After the payment and reserves for unpaid Losses from Hurricanes Michael, Ian, and Idalia the FHCF has a projected December 31, 2024 fund balance of $6.9 billion available to pay claims for any future events. These resources will be available to provide liquidity for the 2024 hurricane season and will be available to pay additional claims, if any, above the current actuarial estimates for Hurricanes Michael, Ian and Idalia. The table below shows the history of FHCF reimbursements paid to insurers and the total industry paid losses (as reported to the FHCF) since 1995. Historically, FHCF’s paid Loss reimbursements have represented approximately 35% of total reported industry paid losses for Covered Events since 1995.

As a condition for doing business in Florida, each insurer writing residential property insurance in Florida must enter into a Reimbursement Contract with the SBA (with limited exceptions). The Reimbursement Contract generally provides that the FHCF will reimburse a Participating Insurer a certain percentage of its Losses above the insurer's share of the industry-wide Retention in exchange for the payment by the Participating Insurer of Reimbursement Premiums. The Contract Year for Reimbursement Contracts entered into by the FHCF begins on June 1 of each year and ends on May 31 of the following year. A Participating Insurer must enter into a Reimbursement Contract every Contract Year. For the Contract Year ending May 31, 2025, there are currently 141 Participating Insurers, including Citizens. Each Reimbursement Contract requires the insurer to pay to the FHCF an actuarially-indicated premium for the reimbursement contemplated under the Reimbursement Contract. This Reimbursement Premium is a factor of the actuarially indicated rates multiplied by each $1,000 of insured value reported to the SBA by the Participating Insurer to determine the total amount of Reimbursement Premiums due from the Participating Insurer under the Reimbursement Contract. Under the Reimbursement Contract, the Reimbursement Premiums paid for a Contract Year must be used to reimburse Participating Insurers for reimbursable Losses incurred in the current or subsequent Contract Years only or to pay debt service on Pre-Event Parity Obligations. Although the Reimbursement Premiums are also available to pay debt service on Post-Event Parity Obligations, the FHCF does not expect to use Reimbursement Premiums for such purpose and, to the extent Reimbursement Premiums are used to pay debt service on Post-Event Parity Obligations, such use would be replenished with future Assessment revenues. Reimbursement Premiums are paid to the SBA in three installments: August 1, October 1 and December 1 of each Contract Year. Reimbursement Premiums are deposited by Participating Insurers via wire transfer and/or ACH directly to an account in the name of the FHCF. Once deposited, Reimbursement Premiums are transferred to the Master Trustee at least monthly pursuant to the Pledge Agreement until debt service on the Outstanding Parity Obligations for such fiscal year has been paid or provided for. See "PLEDGE AND SECURITY FOR 2024A BONDS – Pledge Agreement" herein. Since the total Reimbursement Premiums for any Participating Insurer are not determined until after its insured values have been received and processed, the first two payments of its Reimbursement Premiums in each Contract Year are estimated. Each estimated payment of Reimbursement Premiums is made in an amount equal to approximately one-third of the estimated total Reimbursement Premiums due from a Participating Insurer in the Contract Year. Once the actual Reimbursement Premiums due from the Participating Insurer for the Contract Year are determined, the amount of the final installment due on December 1 is equal to the actual Reimbursement Premiums due from the Participating Insurer for the Contract Year less the two estimated payments of Reimbursement Premiums made by a Participating Insurer. Reimbursement Premiums are shown three ways: (1) as net premium revenue (as reported in the FHCF Audited Financial Statements), which equals the premium revenues after a deduction for any reinsurance expenses; (2) Reimbursement Premium collections, which equals the premium revenues excluding the costs of any reinsurance and represents gross collections; and (3) Reimbursement Premium revenue as shown on the Debt Service Coverage Table, which equals the total operating revenue (as reported in the FHCF Audited Financial Statements), net of the Current Expenses of the FHCF and the 35 Corporation, and plus any interest earnings on the Reimbursement Premiums being held by the Master Trustee. Due to the mismatch in the FHCF Contract Year that ends May 31 and the FHCF Fiscal Year that ends June 30, references to Reimbursement Premium throughout this document have been adjusted as needed to match Contract Year premiums to the Fiscal Year in which they are recorded in the Audited Financial Statements of the FHCF. The following table shows the ten Participating Insurers with the largest Reimbursement Premiums paid to the FHCF for the Contract Year ending May 31, 2024. Reimbursement Premiums Paid By 10 Largest Participating Insurers Participating Insurers Reimbursement Premiums (in millions)(1) Percentage of Reimbursement Premiums Citizens Property Insurance Corporation (Personal Lines and Commercial Lines Accounts) $295.0 19.50% Citizens Property Insurance Corporation (Coastal Account) 184.4 12.19 Universal Property and Casualty Insurance Company 117.0 7.74 First Protective Insurance Company 71.5 4.73 Tower Hill Insurance Exchange 52.4 3.46 American Coastal Insurance Company 49.1 3.24 Heritage Property and Casualty Insurance Company 45.2 2.99 State Farm Florida Insurance Company 43.6 2.88 Homeowners Choice Property and Casualty Insurance Company 40.1 2.65 Federal Insurance Company 39.0 2.58 Total $937.3 61.96% (1) Citizens Property Insurance Corporation has two separate Reimbursement Contracts with the FHCF for the Contract Year ending May 31, 2024. See "Reimbursement Premiums – Citizens as a Participating Insurer" herein. Source: Paragon. Collections. Since 2001, the FHCF has collected over 99% of Reimbursement Premiums, with the only exceptions being certain insurers that have been placed into receivership for purposes of liquidation. See "OPERATION OF THE FHCF - Collection of Assessments and Reimbursement Premiums from Companies in Receivership." Reimbursement Premiums collections vary from year to year as a result of annually-adopted changes in the actuarially-indicated Reimbursement Premiums charged to Participating Insurers in Reimbursement Contracts. The annual premium change is a function of a number of factors, including Participating Insurers’ coverage selection changes, growth in insured values, legislative changes, and rate changes. The largest contributing factors to the increase in the FHCF’s reimbursement premium collections shown below were the FHCF’s Participating Insurers’ coverage selections and growth in insured values. Beginning in 2020, hardening reinsurance pricing and reduced capacity in the Florida market led to increases in the weighted average coverage selection. The weighted average coverage selection increased from 73.5% for the Contract Year ended May 31, 2019 to 87.4% for the Contract Year ended May 31, 2024. Exposure increased by 46% from $2.270 trillion for the Contract Year ended May 31, 2019, to $3.306 trillion for the Contract Year ending May 31, 2024. 36 The Fiscal Year 2024 projection for Reimbursement Premium collections is expected to be $1.515 billion, which would be a 7.7% increase in Reimbursement Premium collections over the previous Fiscal Year. The following table shows Fiscal Year collections for the last five years and the annual percentage change. Total Reimbursement Premium Collections Fiscal Year Ended June 30 Reimbursement Premium Collections(1) (in millions) % Change of Reimbursement Premium Collections Percentage of Reimbursement Premiums Collected(2) 2019 $1,114.6 (1.0%) 100.00% 2020 1,187.9 6.5 100.00 2021 1,206.2 1.5 100.00 2022 1,211.5 0.4 100.00 2023 1,406.7 16.1 99.95 (1) Includes prior year premium adjustments.

(2) The FHCF has disclosed a small percentage of uncollectible billings to reflect the amount of premiums due for various companies that were placed into receivership for the purpose of liquidation. As of December 31, 2023, the FHCF has collected all amounts due from companies with the exception of Southern Fidelity Insurance Company, which owes approximately $660,000. The amount due from Southern Fidelity Insurance Company as of December 31, 2023 has been netted against the total amount received for Fiscal Year 2023. Source: FHCF Audited Financial Statements. Enforcement of Payment of Reimbursement Premiums. The Act and applicable administrative rules relating to the FHCF provide that any violation of a Participating Insurer's obligation to pay Reimbursement Premiums, furnish information necessary to verify the amount of Reimbursement Premiums due, or submit to examinations relating to Reimbursement Premiums constitutes a violation of the Florida Insurance Code. The FHCF may notify the OIR of such violation, which may then take whatever action it deems appropriate to address the violation. In addition, failure to pay Reimbursement Premiums, provide information or submit to examination, among other things, may subject the Participating Insurer to certain penalties as specified in applicable administrative rules of the OIR. Also, the FHCF has the right to offset any amounts payable to the FHCF from a Participating Insurer, including the full Reimbursement Premium, against any (1) loss reimbursement or advance amounts, (2) any Reimbursement Premium refunds, and (3) any amounts agreed to in a commutation agreement, which are due to the Participating Insurer from the FHCF. Cash Build-up Factor. In 2006, the Legislature amended the Act to require that Reimbursement Premiums include a "cash build-up factor" or surcharge designed to replenish the Corpus of the FHCF. The initial cash build-up factor was 25%. The Legislature removed the cash build-up factor in 2007 to ease the burden of increased insurance costs on property owners. In 2009, the cash build-up factor was reenacted and equaled 5% for the Contract Year ended May 31, 2010, 10% for the Contract Year ended May 31, 2011, 15% for the Contract Year ended May 31, 2012, 20% for the Contract Year ending May 31, 2013, and 25% for the Contract Year ending May 31, 2014 and thereafter. Such amounts are included in Reimbursement Premium collections set forth in the table above. The cash build-up factor is retained in the Corpus of the FHCF. The amount of Reimbursement Premium revenue from the cash build-up factor for the Contract Year ending May 31, 2024 is $302.6 million. The Corporation can provide no assurance that the cash build- up factor will not be legislatively repealed or revised again. 37 Citizens as a Participating Insurer. Citizens is an entity created by the State Legislature and controlled by the State that provides certain residential and commercial property and casualty insurance coverage to owners of certain properties in the State as specified in Section 627.351(6), Florida Statutes, as amended. Citizens is statutorily mandated to elect the 90% coverage level annually on their Reimbursement Contracts with the FHCF. Citizens was historically organized legally and financially into three separate accounts – the Coastal Account, which provided residential and commercial wind-only and multi-peril coverage in statutorily-designated coastal areas of the State, the Personal Lines Account ("PLA"), which provided all-perils residential coverage throughout the State, and the Commercial Lines Account ("CLA"), which provided commercial-residential (i.e., apartment and condominium) coverage throughout the State. Citizens has two separate contracts with the FHCF for the Contract Year ending May 31, 2024 – one for the Coastal Account and one for the combined PLA/CLA. These accounts are treated as separate Participating Insurers in all respects by the FHCF. Although Citizens accounts for only two (2) of the 140 Participating Insurers in the FHCF for the current Contract Year ending May 31, 2024, the total Reimbursement Premiums collected from Citizens' two accounts are substantial, totaling approximately 31.7% of all Reimbursement Premiums collected in the current Contract Year. Beginning January 1, 2024, Citizens consolidated the PLA, CLA and Coastal Accounts into one account (the “Citizens Account”), for all of its revenues, assets, liabilities, losses and expenses. This single account allows Citizens to access its entire surplus to pay claims. The Citizens Account is authorized to provide coverage to the same extent as each of the three separate accounts. For the Contract Year ending May 31, 2024, the total Reimbursement Premiums paid by Citizens was $479.5 million, or 31.69% of all Reimbursement Premiums collected during that Contract Year. The amount of Reimbursement Premiums received from Citizens has increased significantly over the past five Contract Years and is up from the $146.1 million of Reimbursement Premiums paid by Citizens, or 13.24% of all Reimbursement Premiums collected, during the Contract Year ended May 31, 2019. A significant portion of this increase in Reimbursement Premiums from Citizens is due, in part, to growth in Citizens’ policy count caused by several insurers reducing exposure in Florida or no longer providing policies in the State as well as several insurers entering insolvency. As a Participating Insurer, Citizens is entitled to a pro-rata share of the FHCF's Actual Claims- paying Capacity, based on Citizens’ proportionate share of Reimbursement Premiums paid to the FHCF. Because Actual Claims-paying Capacity of the FHCF includes the amount of debt the FHCF is able to issue, the timing and amount of Losses sustained by Citizens, combined with its statutory ability to request an advance from the FHCF under certain circumstances, could impact the timing and amount of debt issued by the FHCF to a greater extent than the timing and amount of Losses sustained by other Participating Insurers. Assessments General. Under the Act, if the SBA determines that the amount of revenue produced from Reimbursement Premiums is insufficient to fund the obligations, costs, and expenses of the FHCF and the Corporation, including estimated Losses from Covered Events and repayment of debt and required debt service coverage, the SBA will direct the OIR to levy an Assessment on the premiums for all lines of insurance assessable under the Act (the "Assessable Lines"). Although an Assessment is not a tax, it functions like a broad-based insurance premium tax in many respects. It is essentially a charge on all assessable policies (and directly on policyholders, not insurance companies) that is collected with the 38 premium and various taxes on all assessable policies and non-payment thereof permits an insurer to cancel the policy. There is no need or requirement for legislative action or approval to levy Assessments. Assessable Lines include all property and casualty lines of insurance in Florida, except for those lines identified as medical malpractice, accident and health, workers' compensation, National Flood Insurance Program, National Crop Insurance Program and certain hospital self-insurance funds. Assessable Lines includes (i) insurance companies authorized by the OIR to write insurance in Florida ("Admitted Lines Insurers"); (ii) insurance companies not so authorized ("Surplus Lines Insurers"), provided the insurance is obtained from certain agents licensed in Florida by the OIR (each a "Surplus Lines Agent"); or (iii) independently procured pursuant to Section 626.938, Florida Statutes ("Independently Procured Coverage"). Under the Act, Assessments are collected from policyholders and are calculated as a percentage of premium. The same assessment percentage applies to all policies of Assessable Lines issued or renewed during the 12-month period beginning on the effective date of the Assessment. Assessments are assessed annually for so long as debt under the Act is Outstanding, are subject to annual adjustment by the SBA in order to meet debt obligations and are subject to both an annual and overall cap. There is a cap of 6% of direct written premiums that may be assessed in any one year with respect to obligations arising out of Losses attributable to any one Contract Year. The overall cap on the annual assessment is 10% of direct written premiums. While an insurer is liable under State law for all Assessments it collects from policyholders, the policyholders, not insurers, are required to pay the Assessments. Policyholders are liable for Assessments only to the extent policyholders wish to retain the insurance on which the Assessment is based. Insurers are required to treat the failure of a policyholder to pay the Assessment as a failure to pay premium, which permits an insurer to cancel the policy. Other than having their insurance policy cancelled for non-payment of premium, policyholders are not personally liable for payment of Assessments and are not subject to collection proceedings to pay the Assessment due. Pursuant to reports of the OIR and Florida Surplus Lines Service Office (the "FSLSO"), historically, substantially all of the Assessments have been remitted to the FHCF on a timely basis. Admitted Lines Insurers collect the Assessment from policyholders. Such insurers must remit Assessments directly to the FHCF based on a percentage of direct written premium for the preceding calendar quarter, even if not yet collected. Surplus Lines Agents must also collect the Assessment from policyholders, but must remit the collected amounts to the FSLSO at the same time such agents collect and remit the surplus lines tax. The FSLSO invoices the Surplus Lines Agents quarterly with payments due 45 days from the last calendar day of the preceding quarter. Insureds obtaining Independently Procured Coverage are invoiced by the FSLSO quarterly and must remit the Assessment within 45 days from the last calendar day of the preceding quarter, as directed by the FSLSO at the same time the insured pays the surplus lines tax. While an insurer is not ultimately liable for uncollectible Assessments, the insurer must treat the failure to pay an Assessment as a failure to pay premium by the insured, which permits termination of the policy. Each insurer is liable for all Assessments it collects from policyholders except to the extent the insurer is required to return collected Assessments when returning unearned premium. When an Admitted Lines Insurer is required to return unearned premium, it shall also return any collected Assessment attributable to the unearned premium. A credit adjustment to the collected Assessments may be made by such Admitted Lines Insurer to future remittances of Assessments, but the Admitted Lines Insurer is not 39 entitled to a refund of previously paid Assessments. In contrast to the Admitted Lines Insurers, Surplus Lines Agents and insureds obtaining Independently Procured Coverage may receive either a credit or refund of the collected Assessment attributable to returned unearned premium. Since 2013, approximately 87.7%of premium on Assessable Lines relates to premium written by Admitted Lines Insurers. See "Historical Premium" below. On May 31, 2006, the SBA adopted a resolution directing the OIR to levy an Assessment on all Assessable Lines in the amount of 1%, effective beginning January 1, 2007. On June 12, 2006, the OIR levied the Assessment in two orders: one directed at Admitted Lines Insurers, who are directly regulated by the OIR, and the other directed at the FSLSO to apply to Surplus Lines Agents and insureds obtaining Independently Procured Coverage. Amounts collected under this Assessment were used to pay debt service on or retire the 2006A Bonds, the 2008A Bonds and the 2010A Bonds. The Act permits the SBA to adjust an Assessment annually as necessary to pay debt service on revenue bonds provided the Corporation remains in compliance with all covenants under the Master Indenture, including without limitation covenants regarding debt service coverage and the exclusion of interest from federal income taxation. This Assessment was increased in 2010 from 1.0% to 1.3% of premiums on Assessable Lines to support the issuance of the 2010A Bonds. When the 2010A Bonds were legally defeased and there were no remaining unpaid hurricane Losses, upon direction of the SBA, the OIR issued Orders on July 21, 2014, terminating the Assessment for policies issued or renewed on or after January 1, 2015. See "PLEDGE AND SECURITY FOR THE 2024A BONDS - Flow of Funds" herein. Although there is currently no assessment,if one were levied in the future, such assessment would be received by the FHCF continually throughout the year, with the largest amounts due to the FHCF on or about each May 15, August 15, November 15, and March 1. Historically, all payments of Assessments were made directly to an FHCF lock-box account held by an SBA custodian bank. Assessments held in this lock- box account were not commingled with any other moneys of the FHCF or the SBA, and the payments were transferred to the Master Trustee at least monthly pursuant to the Pledge Agreement. See "PLEDGE AND SECURITY FOR 2024A BONDS – Pledge Agreement" herein. Late payments of collected Assessments could subject an Admitted Lines Insurer or Surplus Lines Agent, as the case may be, to delinquent interest and penalties. Collection of Assessments. The OIR is responsible for verifying the accuracy and timely collection and remittance of Assessments. Information used by the OIR in the verification process is transmitted directly to the OIR by insurers for all Assessable Lines other than Surplus Lines and Independently Procured Coverage. Assessments relating to Surplus Lines and Independently Procured Coverage under Section 626.938, Florida Statutes are remitted as directed by the FSLSO. The FSLSO is required to assist the FHCF in ensuring the accurate and timely collection and remittance of the Assessments. The OIR has the authority to enforce the collection and remittance of Assessments. Timely Remittance of Assessments. A business failure or other event causing a disruption in operations with respect to any insurer could result in a delay in the collection and remittance of the Assessments, or a failure to collect or to remit the Assessments. Delays in the payment of Assessments may result in amounts in the Revenue Fund being insufficient, particularly during any period when there is an extended delay in collection of the Assessments. See "Collection of Assessments and Reimbursement Premiums from Companies in Receivership" below for additional information on the collection of Assessments from insolvent insurers. 40 Imposition of Assessments May Not Yield Sufficient Assessment Revenues to Meet Coverage Requirement. While the SBA will direct the OIR to levy the Assessments and will certify to the OIR the need to levy additional Assessments up to the maximum amount permitted by applicable law, for so long as needed to ensure the full and timely payment of the principal of and interest on any outstanding post- event debt for as long as the debt remains Outstanding, and although the Assessments would be sized in an amount expected to be more than sufficient to pay debt service on any outstanding post-event debt, no assurance can be given that such Assessments would in fact be sufficient. In addition, the SBA does not have authority to direct the levy of Assessments in excess of the rate established by the State Legislature (currently 6% maximum annual Assessment percentage on direct written premium for obligations arising from any one Contract Year and no more than 10% in total). In the unlikely event that the amount of such direct written premiums decreases significantly, the imposition of the Assessments might not result in sufficient Assessments to meet the debt service requirement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Act provides that the State covenants with holders of any bonds of the Corporation that the State will not limit or alter the rights of the FHCF or the Corporation to fulfill the terms of any agreements made with such bondholders or in any way impair the rights and remedies of such bondholders as long as any such bonds remain outstanding, unless adequate provision has been made for the payment of such bonds in accordance with the Indenture.

In 2023, the direct written premiums subject to Assessments for the Admitted Lines and Surplus Lines reached over $85.2 billion, with Florida’s population growth and increasing property values contributing to the increase. The assessment base has grown by 125% since 2013 and 69% since 2018, representing compound annual growth rates of 8.4% and 11.1%, respectively, over the same time periods. The FHCF assessment base decreased by a total of 11% from 2006 to 2009 during the great recession, declining from $37.6 billion in 2006 to $33.3 billion in 2009, but has seen annual growth in all other years since 1995.

As a result of legislation passed during the December 2022 special session enabling Citizens to consolidate its three accounts into a single account, Citizens maximum assessment authority for its consolidated account is 10%. Under the Citizens statute, policies and insurers subject to assessment (referred to as "subject lines of business") are all property and casualty insurance except for workers’ compensation, medical malpractice, accident and health insurance, and insurance written under the National Flood Insurance Program and the National Crop Insurance Program. This listing is identical to the types of insurance subject to assessment by the FHCF, except that the FHCF statute does not specifically refer to the National Crop Insurance Program, though it is similarly excluded from FHCF’s Assessable Lines. FIGA is another statutorily created entity with the power to levy assessments on property and casualty insurers and their policyholders. FIGA pays policyholder claims against certain insolvent property and casualty insurers. FIGA assessments are divided between two accounts – the automobile liability and physical damage account, and the "all other" account, which includes most property and casualty insurance written by admitted insurers other than workers’ compensation and those lines excluded by Section 631.52, Florida Statutes. FIGA funds each account with regular assessments on insurers writing policies covered by that account in an amount up to two percent (2%) of the insurer’s net written premium for the kinds of insurance included in that account. FIGA may impose an additional four percent (4%) annual emergency assessment on member insurers in the "all other" account for hurricane-related claims. Member insurer means any person who writes any kind of insurance to which Part II of Chapter 631, Florida Statutes, as amended applies, including the exchange of reciprocal or inter-insurance contracts, and is licensed to transact 44 insurance in the State. Effectively, all admitted property insurance companies doing business in the State, excluding workers' compensation, are required to be members of FIGA as a condition of their authority to write insurance in the State. To the extent that the assessment bases of the FHCF, Citizens and FIGA overlap, policyholders will incur the cost of cumulative assessments imposed by such entities. Neither Citizens nor FHCF currently levies any assessment.FIGA currently levies an emergency assessment of 1.0% against its assessment base for its “all other” account through the earlier of the date the bonds which are secured thereby are no longer outstanding, or September 1, 2032. The bonds secured by the FIGA assessment are the $465,325,0000Florida Insurance Assistance Interlocal Agency Insurance Assessment Revenue Bonds, Series 2023A-1 and $125,000,000 Florida Insurance Assistance Interlocal Agency Insurance Assessment Revenue Bonds, Series 2023A-2 (Variable Rate). These bonds have a final maturity date of September 1, 2032, but FIGA is expected to utilize excess assessment collections to redeem the bonds prior to their stated final maturity. In the event Citizens or FIGA also seek to issue bonds payable from assessments similar to the FHCF's Assessments following the same hurricane event or events, there could be an impact on the market for FHCF debt. The FHCF’s future potential borrowing requirements may be large and there can be no guarantee that in the future there will be adequate financing capacity available to the FHCF following a Covered Event, or series of Covered Events, that would require post-event financing to fulfill statutory liability or to pay Pre-Event bondholders. The FHCF also has the option to utilize Assessments to pay the Pre-Event Obligations instead of a refinancing if it draws on the proceeds of Pre-Event Obligations. Collection of Assessments and Reimbursement Premiums from Companies in Receivership The risk of nonpayment or delinquent payment on the 2024A Bonds is dependent in part upon the amount of moneys received from Reimbursement Premiums and Assessments and the timeliness of their payment to the FHCF. The amount of moneys received from Reimbursement Premiums and Assessments (see "DEBT SERVICE COVERAGE - Debt Service Coverage Total Outstanding Parity Obligations" herein) and the timeliness of their payment to the FHCF are dependent in part on the solvency of insurers in that, under certain circumstances, the insolvency of an insurer could affect its ability to make such payments to the FHCF. Under State law, when an insurer becomes insolvent, it is placed under the control of the Division of Rehabilitation and Liquidation of the Department. State law establishes priorities for the payment of claims against an insurer in liquidation. Liabilities become fixed as of the date of filing the petition for liquidation. Holders of claims which are secured by a pledge of a particular asset and holders of claims described as special deposit claims may discharge their claim against the security pledged or the special deposit, prior to other claims. Special deposit claims are claims secured by a deposit made pursuant to statute for the security or benefit of a limited class or classes of persons. To the extent that Assessments and Reimbursement Premiums are not considered secured claims or special deposit claims, they would likely be considered claims of general creditors. After the payment of secured creditors and special deposit creditors, there are eleven additional classes of claims. All approved claims in a class must be paid in full before any payment is made to the next lower class. Within a class, all approved claims are paid equal pro-rata shares if there are not sufficient funds to pay the entire class in full. Claims of general creditors are sixth in the hierarchy of eleven classes of claims. 45 Although no assurance can be given as to the continued timeliness of payments of Reimbursement Premiums or Assessments, despite certain insurer insolvencies, the FHCF has collected substantially all Reimbursement Premiums and Assessments billed to Participating Insurers from prior Contract Years. INVESTMENT POLICY OF THE FHCF Upon the issuance of the 2024A Bonds, the FHCF expects to have five individual investment portfolios, which are managed by SBA investment professionals with a conservative investment policy focusing on liquidity, safety of principal and competitive returns. The types of investment portfolios are described below: •FHCF Operating Fund – Liquidity Fund: The liquidity fund portfolio holds funds used to reimburse insurers for known Covered Events and is the fund where the FHCF holds its current Loss reserves for Hurricanes Michael, Ian, and Idalia. •FHCF Operating Fund – Claims-Paying Fund: The claims-paying fund is the first source of liquidity to pay for any reimbursements for Future Covered Events. Expenses of the FHCF and any statutorily required appropriations are paid from this fund. •SBA Finance Corporation Pre-Event Fund 2020A – This portfolio holds the proceeds of the 2020A Bonds and will be used to pay claims after a Covered Event, if needed, and to pay debt service payments, including principal payments, on such Pre-Event Bonds as needed. •SBA Finance Corporation Pre-Event 2020A Fund Transition Account – This portfolio holds the portion of 2020A Pre-Event bond proceeds needed to pay near-term principal maturities. Currently, this fund holds an amount sufficient to pay the July 1, 2025 maturity of the 2020A Bonds, with its investments maturing on or before that principal payment date. •2024A Bond Proceeds Subaccount – This portfolio will hold proceeds of 2024A Bonds and will be used to pay claims after a Future Covered Event, if needed, and to pay debt service payments, including principal payments, on such Pre-Event Bonds as needed. Together, the aggregate market value of the FHCF’s current portfolios was approximately $14.9 billion as of February 29, 2024, and consists of 61% U.S. Treasury and U.S. Agency securities and 39% corporate securities. Unless otherwise noted, values in this section are stated at market value. Upon issuance of the 2024A Bonds, it is expected that the proceeds of such 2024A Bonds will be invested in a similar manner as the Pre-Event Fund 2020A,in the 2024A Bond Proceeds Subaccount. The 2024A Bond Proceeds Subaccount is expected to have a longer maturity structure than the Pre-Event Fund 2020A. The Act authorizes the SBA to invest moneys in the FHCF pursuant to Sections 215.44-215.515, Florida Statutes, which are the statutory provisions authorizing and governing the investment of other moneys held in trust by the SBA. Under the Pledge Agreement, proceeds of the 2024A Bonds will be held in the 2024A Bonds Proceeds Subaccount established with the FHCF by the Pledge Agreement and will be invested pursuant to the investment policy to ensure the availability of those funds to reimburse Participating Insurers for Losses relating to any Future Covered Events. Moneys in the FHCF's portfolio may only be invested at the direction of the SBA in Investment Obligations, which are investments authorized under Section 215.47, Florida Statutes. The SBA investment 46 policy covering FHCF assets is designed to provide adequate liquidity by using highly liquid short-term investment strategies. Liquidity is a primary concern for the FHCF since insurers may file claims weekly, and investment strategies are planned accordingly. The investment policy is periodically reviewed by the SBA and is subject to change. Because permitted investments are exposed to changes due to market fluctuations, the daily net asset value (NAV) may be lower than par. The lower NAV may result in a lower market value than the original bond issue amount. Such a decline may result in insufficient funds being available, when needed, to pay Losses and other liabilities and expenses, including debt service on the Parity Obligations and the 2024A Bonds. The primary investment objective of the FHCF's investment policies is defined by the following prioritized goals: (i) liquidity, so that reimbursement to insurers can be paid in a timely manner; (ii) safety of principal; and (iii) competitive returns. The FHCF's investment policies provide for a high level of liquidity such that assets can be converted to cash on a timely basis in order to match insurer loss reimbursement needs. The FHCF's portfolios include only short-term, high quality and highly liquid fixed income securities. At the time of purchase, all investments must be rated by at least two of the three rating agencies, Moody's Ratings ("Moody's"), S&P Global Ratings ("S&P"), and Fitch Ratings ("Fitch"), except for money market mutual funds and repurchase agreements, which must have at least one rating. The minimum ratings for short-term investments are "P-1" by Moody's, "A-1" by S&P, and/or "F1" by Fitch. The minimum ratings for long-term investments are "A2" by Moody's, "A" by S&P, and/or "A" by Fitch. The FHCF’s intent is to have a short-term portfolio that can provide ready liquidity at a price approximating amortized cost. Limiting the duration of investments in the portfolios is one important way that this goal can be achieved. Permitted fixed income securities and their diversification limits along with duration restrictions are described below: FHCF Operating Funds – Liquidity Fund •U.S. Treasury securities and U.S. Government Agency securities (at least 60% of total portfolio market value) •Corporate debt securities (not more than 40% of total portfolio market value) •Not more than 35% of the total market value will be invested in a single federal agency or other Government-Sponsored Enterprise acting under federal authority •Repurchase Agreements collateralized at least 102% with U.S. Government, Agency, or Agency Mortgage Backed Securities (not more than 25% of total portfolio market value). •Final maturities shall not exceed 735 days, with the exception of commercial paper which shall not exceed 270 days •Maturities laddered with generally $600 million (par value) maturing each month; however, market conditions and timing of cash flows might lead to a temporary par value amount variance •At least $300 million (par value) must be kept with maturities within 7 business days •The maximum term for Repurchase Agreements shall not exceed one trading day As of February 29, 2024, the FHCF's Operating Funds – Liquidity Fund portfolio (which is a part of the Corpus of the FHCF) totaled $7.1 billion and had an average weighted average maturity of 230 days. 47 The FHCF Operating Funds – Liquidity Fund portfolio is currently 62% invested in U.S. Treasury and U.S. Government Agency securities and 38% invested in corporate securities.

The SBA Finance Corporation Series 2020A portfolio is currently 66% invested in U.S. Treasury and U.S. Agency securities and 34% invested in corporate securities (all maturing prior to the final maturity of the 2020A Bonds on July 1, 2030). SBA Finance Corporation Series 2020A Transition Portfolio •U.S. Treasury securities and U.S. Government Agency securities (at least 50% of total portfolio market value) 48 •Repurchase Agreements will not represent more than 15% of total portfolio market value •Corporate debt securities (not more than 50% of total portfolio market value) •Final maturities shall not exceed 180 days, with the exception of Repurchase Agreements which shall not exceed 30 days As of February 29, 2024, the SBA Finance Corporation Series 2020A Transition portfolio totaled $1.2 billion and had a weighted average maturity of 148 days. The SBA Finance Corporation Series 2020A Transition portfolio is currently 69% invested in U.S. Treasury and U.S. Agency securities and 31% invested in corporate securities (all maturing prior to the initial maturity of the 2020A Bonds on July 1, 2025). OVERVIEW OF FLORIDA PROPERTY AND CASUALTY INSURANCE MARKET General While the property insurance market in Florida is unique due to the State's geography and exposure to hurricanes, insurers have been impacted by litigation, fraud, and social inflation as well as by storm activity. As a result, insurance companies have faced a higher risk of losses in Florida compared to other states, which has made the property insurance market in Florida more volatile and a more challenging environment for insurers to profitably operate in. Based on data from the OIR, aggregate property insurance industry net income losses in Florida in 2021 and 2022 totaled $1.4 billion, while the industry had an aggregate net income gain of $319 million in 2023. In recent years, the Florida property insurance market has faced a number of challenges, including rising premiums, increased claims frequency, and a surge in fraudulent claims. In 2022, the State represented 14.9% of homeowners’ claims nationally, but 70.8% of homeowners’ lawsuits. In some cases, these challenges have led to insurance companies withdrawing from the market, resulting in concerns regarding homeowners’ access to insurance. The State has responded to these challenges with several statutory changes approved during special and regular legislative sessions in order to eliminate abusive litigation practices, curtail insured losses, and promote long-term market stability. See " - Recent Legislative Actions" below. Since October 2019, 10 property insurers writing approximately 441,000 aggregate policies in Florida have been declared insolvent by the OIR. Policies of insolvent companies are absorbed by other private insurers or Citizens, with liability for outstanding claims transferred to FIGA to ensure no disruption of payment of outstanding claims to policyholders. Displaced policies due to insurer insolvency represent less than 6% of the total Florida market. At the end of 2023, FIGA, utilizing a combination of bonds and loans secured by FIGA assessments, paid $1.5 billion out of total estimated $1.9 billion of obligations from insolvent insurers, consisting of claims and reimbursements of unearned premium to policyholders. As of December 31, 2023, there were approximately 7.5 million residential property insurance policies in Florida. The Florida residential market had total residential premium of $20.9 billion in 2023, representing approximately $3.7 trillion of insured property value. Based on the OIR data, the average cost of homeowner’s insurance in Florida (excluding condos and mobile homes) has increased from $2,204 in the fourth quarter of 2019 to $3,584 in the fourth quarter of 2023. Insurance companies in the State can be broadly categorized into four main groups: (i) large national carriers - e.g. Liberty Mutual, USAA; (ii) Florida-only subsidiaries of large national carriers - e.g. State Farm, Allstate, Travelers, and Nationwide all have Florida-only subsidiaries; (iii) stand-alone Florida-only companies that write business primarily in, or only in, Florida; and (iv) Citizens, the State-run insurer of last resort. In addition to these admitted market carriers, which are regulated as to premium rates and other matters by the OIR, surplus lines carriers, which 49 have unregulated rates and which are otherwise subject to less regulatory oversight by the OIR, also write residential property insurance in Florida. The dynamics of Florida's property and casualty insurance market are significantly influenced by the hurricane risks faced by the State. As a result, private insurance carriers, especially large national carriers, have long sought to manage their exposure in the State. As of December 31, 2023, the market consists mainly of smaller companies which write all or most of their business in Florida (about 55% of the market as measured by direct written premium for personal and commercial residential lines in the State) and Citizens writes approximately 15% of the direct written premium for personal and commercial residential lines in the State). Large national carriers and their Florida-only subsidiaries account for the other 30% of the direct written premium of personal and commercial residential lines in the State. Citizens absorbed policies from insolvent insurers and other private market insurers that had reduced their exposure in Florida. Due to legislative changes that have tempered litigation and new companies entering the market, Citizens’ policies peaked at 1.4 million in September 2023, and policy count has decreased to 1.2 million as of February 2024 (estimated 16% market share). In order to address the unique characteristics of its insurance market, the State has implemented a market framework designed to promote long-term market stability, including longstanding mechanisms and property insurance entities. FHCF, Citizens and FIGA all serve as distinct, yet integral, parts of a highly regulated marketplace. Regulation The insurance market in the State is primarily regulated by the OIR, which is responsible for regulating and overseeing the insurance industry in the State, including monitoring insurance company solvency, reviewing insurance rates and policies, and ensuring compliance with State insurance laws and regulations. The OIR is headed by Michael Yaworsky, who was confirmed by the Financial Services Commission as Insurance Commissioner on March 13, 2023. It is the responsibility of the OIR to levy Assessments when the need for an Assessment is certified by the SBA, and to verify the accurate and timely collection and remittance of Assessments. See "OPERATION OF THE FHCF – Collection of Assessments" herein. One of the key elements of the OIR's financial regulatory oversight of insurance companies operating in the State is a review of quarterly and annual financial statements which, among other important requirements, assures that an insurance company is maintaining minimum levels of capital and surplus sufficient to meet its financial obligations. Concurrently with ongoing financial monitoring, evaluation, and enforcement of financial solvency requirements, the OIR employs credentialed actuaries, actuarial analysts, and contract specialists to review and enforce policy forms and rate regulation. The OIR conducts an Annual Reinsurance Data Call and Catastrophic Stress Test to evaluate reinsurance programs that companies have in place. Results are used to estimate an insurer's surplus amounts following modeled storm events and determine if the insurer would be able to continue to meet its minimum surplus requirements. The Property Insurer Stability Unit (the "Stability Unit") of the OIR aids in the detection and prevention of property insurer insolvencies. The Stability Unit provides enhanced monitoring whenever the OIR identifies significant concerns about an insurer's solvency, rates, proposed contracts, claims 50 handling, litigation practices and outcomes, or any other issue related to compliance with the insurance code. Certain events outlined in the applicable statute trigger a referral to the Stability Unit, including rate increases above a certain percentage, notice from an insurer to the OIR of the insurer's intent to not renew more than 10,000 residential policies in a twelve-month period and an insurer failing to file timely financials. As of January 1, 2024, there were 19 insurers subject to the Stability Unit's enhanced monitoring. In addition to the OIR, there are other State agencies that may have some regulatory authority over specific types of insurance products. For example, the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services oversees the regulation of insurance policies related to agricultural businesses and products. Recent Legislative Actions To address many of the issues facing the Florida insurance market, the Florida Legislature has passed various laws aimed at maintaining a stable and healthy private property insurance market in the State. For example, in 2021, the Florida Legislature passed a bill that aimed to crack down on fraudulent insurance claims by increasing penalties for those who commit insurance fraud. Additionally, the State has also implemented measures to encourage insurers to stay in the market, such as providing tax credits and reducing regulatory burdens for insurers. In 2022, the Florida Legislature passed Senate Bill 1058 ("SB 1058"), which was signed into law by the Governor. SB 1058 added the definition of "unsound insurer" and allowed authorized insurers to provide coverage for policies of an unsound insurer through an assignment or an assumption of the unsound insurer's FHCF Reimbursement Contract. In addition, the definition of "Covered Policy" was amended beginning with the Contract Year ending May 31, 2024, to reflect treatment of collateral protection insurance. Over the last two years, the Florida Legislature passed a number of reforms to help improve the property insurance market. Among the measures passed were a prohibition against the assignment of benefits on all residential and commercial property insurance policies and the reinstatement of the civil offer of judgment statute for civil actions under a residential or commercial property insurance policy, which allows joint offers of settlement in property insurance litigation. To combat abusive litigation, one- way attorney fee statutes in Florida are no longer applicable to suits related to residential or commercial property insurance policies. Bad faith litigation cases are now limited by the requirement of an adverse adjudication that an insurer has breached an insurance contract before an insured can file bad faith litigation, and a safe harbor is provided within which an insurer may correct alleged bad faith acts and attempt settlement. The claim filing deadline was reduced from two (2) years to one (1) year for new or reopened claims, and from three (3) years to eighteen (18) months for a supplemental claim, and prompt pay laws shorten the times for investigation and payment of claims by insurers. Other statutory changes to address the property insurance market included increased thresholds for coverage, making policyholders ineligible for Citizens coverage if the difference in the cost of comparable private-market coverage is 20% or less, a requirement that Citizens’ rates must be actuarially sound and non-competitive with admitted market rates, and institution of flood insurance requirements for all Citizens policies, phasing in through 2027. The Legislature also provided for enhanced OIR oversight and established best practices for insurance claims handling processes. The State also created two temporary programs in 2022 to assist private market insurers in obtaining reinsurance for the 2022 and 2023 hurricane seasons, both of which were administered by the 51 SBA, but did not impact the coverage offered by the FHCF or its liabilities. The Reinsurance to Assist Policyholders ("RAP") Program was funded through an appropriation from the State's general revenue fund and offered insurers a $2 billion reimbursement layer of reinsurance for hurricane losses below the mandatory layer of the FHCF. All eligible insurers were required to participate in the RAP Program for one year (either in 2022-23 or 2023-24). Approximately $885 million of RAP coverage was utilized for the 2022 hurricane season, with the remaining $1.1 billion of coverage utilized for the 2023 hurricane season. The Florida Optional Reinsurance Assistance (“FORA”) Program offered insurers four layers of temporary reinsurance below the mandatory layer of the FHCF, with the total amount of coverage limited to $1 billion of funding provided from State general revenues plus the premiums paid to the program by participating insurers for the 2023 hurricane season. Some initial benefits of the legislative changes described above are already being felt in the State insurance market. Eight new property insurers have been approved to enter the property insurance market and Citizens' policy count and exposure is decreasing after transitioning over 275,000 policies and $113 billion of exposure back to the private market in 2023. FUTURE LEGISLATIVE AND REGULATORY CHANGES The FHCF is a tax-exempt trust fund created by the Act. The Florida Legislature has amended the Act more than 30 times since its original enactment in 1993. Future actions of the Florida Legislature could involve significant amendments to the Act or other aspects of Florida insurance law which could have an adverse impact on the FHCF’s financial position, operations, assessment base, or tax-exempt status. However, the Act includes covenants of the State of Florida to the effect that it will not: (i)limit or alter the rights of the FHCF and the Corporation to fulfill the terms of any agreements made with holders of the Corporation’s obligations, including holders of the 2024A Bonds, or (ii)impair in any way the rights and remedies of holders of the Corporation’s obligations, including holders of the 2024A Bonds, as long as such obligations of the Corporation remain outstanding unless adequate provision has been made for the payment of such obligations of the Corporation. The Act also includes the covenant of the State of Florida that it will not limit or alter provisions prohibiting the FHCF and the Corporation from filing a voluntary petition under Chapter 9 of the Federal Bankruptcy Code while such obligations, including the 2024A Bonds, are outstanding. Regardless of any potential future legislative activity, the FHCF’s ability to meet its obligations under the 2024A Bonds is protected by Article I, Section 10 of the Florida Constitution, which prohibits laws impairing the obligation of contracts. Therefore, based on the foregoing, any legislation that may be enacted in the future is not expected to have a material effect on the FHCF’s ability to meet future obligations with respect to the 2024A Bonds or the Outstanding Parity Obligations. 52 LITIGATION General There is no litigation of any nature now pending against the Corporation or the SBA, or, to the best knowledge of the Corporation and the SBA, threatened, seeking to restrain or enjoin the issuance, sale, execution or delivery of the 2024A Bonds or in any way contesting or affecting the validity of the 2024A Bonds or any proceedings of the Corporation or the SBA taken with respect to the issuance or sale thereof. There is no litigation of any nature now pending against the Corporation or the SBA, or, to the best knowledge of the Corporation or the SBA, threatened, that in any way questions or affects the validity of the pledge or application of any moneys or security provided for the payment of the 2024A Bonds. Previous Litigation After the FHCF's inception in 1993 and until final resolution of the issues in 1996, the FHCF was challenged by over 40 insurance companies on a number of grounds in civil and administrative actions in the State. The Circuit Court of the Second Judicial Circuit in and for Leon County, Florida upheld the constitutionality of the FHCF under the State Constitution. This decision was affirmed by decision of the First District Court of Appeal on August 1, 1995. The State Supreme Court affirmed the decisions of the circuit court and the appellate court by opinion dated June 27, 1996 in American Bankers Insurance Company, et al. v. Chiles, 675 So.2d 922 (Fla. 1996) ("American Bankers"). As a result of American Bankers, the plaintiffs’ insurance companies dismissed all other civil and administrative actions. The constitutionality of the FHCF under the United States Constitution was challenged by the Vesta Insurance Company in federal district court. The federal district court upheld the constitutionality of the FHCF on October 25, 1996 in Vesta Fire Insurance Corporation, f/k/a Liberty National Fire Insurance Company, Vesta Insurance Corporation and Sheffield Insurance Corporation, Alabama corporations, Plaintiffs, v. State of Florida, Department of Insurance, William Nelson in his capacity as Insurance Commissioner, State Board of Administration, Ash Williams, Jr., in his capacity as Executive Director, Defendants. Validation Proceedings Pursuant to Florida Statutes In July 1996, the Corporation adopted a resolution authorizing the execution and issuance of not to exceed $10 billion in debt of the Corporation. The Act, as originally enacted, required that the Corporation validate the issuance of its bonds in the Circuit Court of the Second Judicial Circuit in and for Leon County, Florida (the "Circuit Court"), pursuant to Chapter 75, Florida Statutes. During the 2006 Legislative Session ended May 5, 2006, the Act was amended to remove the validation requirement. On November 12, 1996, in connection with the original validation requirement, and pursuant to authority granted by the authorizing resolution, the Corporation filed a validation complaint in the Circuit Court. In accordance with the requirements of State law, the State Attorney for Leon County formally contested the validation, raising ten points in opposition. Several of the defenses asserted by the State Attorney were based upon the State Constitution including: (i) the FHCF was not properly created under Article III, Section 19(f)(1) of the State Constitution; (ii) the FHCF did not contain a sunset provision required by Article III, Section 19(f)(2) of the State Constitution; (iii) the Corporation's debt would pledge the State's credit in violation of Article VII, Sections 10 and 11(a) of the State Constitution; and (iv) the revenues of the Corporation were tax revenues pledged to the debt without voter approval. 53 Following a properly noticed hearing, the Circuit Court found in favor of the Corporation, specifically rejecting the State Attorney's constitutional objections. The Circuit Court determined that the FHCF had been properly created and was exempt from the sunset requirement pursuant to Article III, Section 19(f)(3) of the State Constitution. Moreover, after determining that receipts of the FHCF were not State tax revenues, the Circuit Court found that debt of the Corporation, a "legal entity separate and distinct from the State and its agencies," would be payable solely from receipts of the FHCF. Therefore, debt of the Corporation would not pledge the full faith and credit of the State and did not require voter approval. As then required by the Act, the State Attorney for Leon County filed a mandatory appeal directly with the State Supreme Court. In State of Florida, et al. v. Florida Hurricane Catastrophe Fund Finance Corporation, et al. (1997), the State Supreme Court affirmed the trial court's judgment. The proceedings described in this section and the "Previous Litigation" section above are dispositive of any material State constitutional questions that could have been raised as to the FHCF, the Corporation and the 2024A Bonds. As a result of certain material changes to the Master Indenture and the Pledge Agreement since the conclusion of the validation proceedings described above, no representation can be made that the 2024A Bonds have been validated by the Circuit Court. However, as a result of the amendment to the Act in 2006 removing the validation requirement, validation of the 2024A Bonds is no longer a prerequisite to the valid issuance of the 2024A Bonds under the Act. See "APPROVAL OF LEGALITY" herein and "APPENDIX E, FORM OF APPROVING OPINION." ENFORCEABILITY OF REMEDIES The remedies available to the holders of the 2024A Bonds upon an Event of Default under the Master Indenture are in many respects dependent upon judicial actions, which are often subject to discretion and delay. Under the existing constitutional and statutory law and judicial decisions, including specifically the Federal Bankruptcy Code, the remedies specified in the Master Indenture and other remedies under applicable law may not be readily available or may be limited. The various legal opinions to be delivered concurrently with the delivery of the 2024A Bonds will be qualified, as to the enforceability of the various legal instruments, by limitations imposed by bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency or other similar laws affecting the rights of creditors enacted before or after such delivery. See "PLEDGE AND SECURITY FOR 2024A BONDS—No Bankruptcy" herein for a discussion regarding the circumstances under which neither the FHCF nor the Corporation will have the ability to file a voluntary petition under Chapter 9 of the Federal Bankruptcy Code. TAX MATTERS General The following discussion is a summary of certain expected material federal income tax consequences of the purchase, ownership and disposition of the 2024A Bonds and is based on the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), the regulations promulgated thereunder, published rulings and pronouncements of the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") and court decisions currently in effect. There can be no assurance that the IRS will not take a contrary view, and no ruling from the IRS, has been, or is expected to be, sought on the issues discussed herein. Any subsequent changes or interpretations may apply retroactively and could affect the opinion and summary of federal income tax consequences discussed herein. 54 The following discussion is not a complete analysis or description of all potential U.S. federal tax considerations that may be relevant to, or of the actual tax effect that any of the matters described herein will have on, particular holders of the 2024A Bonds and does not address U.S. federal gift or estate tax or (as otherwise stated herein) the alternative minimum tax, state, local or other tax consequences. This summary does not address special classes of taxpayers (such as partnerships, or other pass-thru entities treated as a partnerships for U.S. federal income tax purposes, S corporations, mutual funds, insurance companies, financial institutions, small business investment companies, regulated investment companies, real estate investment trusts, grantor trusts, former citizens of the U.S., broker-dealers, traders in securities and tax-exempt organizations, individual recipients of Social Security or Railroad Retirement benefits, taxpayers who may be subject to branch profits tax or personal holding company provisions of the Code or taxpayers qualifying for the health insurance premium assistance credit) that are subject to special treatment under U.S. federal income tax laws, or persons that hold 2024A Bonds as a hedge against, or that are hedged against, currency risk or that are part of hedge, straddle, conversion or other integrated transaction, or persons whose functional currency is not the "U.S. dollar". This summary is further limited to investors who will hold the 2024A Bonds as "capital assets" (generally, property held for investment) within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Code. This discussion is based on existing statutes, regulations, published rulings and court decisions, all of which are subject to change or modification, retroactively. As used herein, the term "U.S. Holder" means a beneficial owner of a 2024A Bond who or which is: (i) an individual citizen or resident of the United States; (ii) a corporation, partnership or other entity treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes created or organized under the laws of the United States or any political subdivision thereof or therein; (iii) an estate, the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income tax regardless of the source; or (iv) a trust, if (a) a court within the U.S. is able to exercise primary supervision over the administration of the trust and one or more U.S. persons have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust, or (b) the trust validly elects to be treated as a U.S. person for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Partnerships holding 2024A Bonds, and partners in such partnerships, should consult their own tax advisors regarding the tax consequences of an investment in the 2024A Bonds, including their status as a U.S. Holder. As used herein, the term "Non-U.S. Holder" means a beneficial owner of a 2024A Bond that is not a U.S. Holder. THIS SUMMARY IS INCLUDED HEREIN FOR GENERAL INFORMATION ONLY AND DOES NOT DISCUSS ALL ASPECTS OF THE U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAXATION THAT MAY BE RELEVANT TO A PARTICULAR HOLDER OF 2024A BONDS IN LIGHT OF THE HOLDER'S PARTICULAR CIRCUMSTANCES AND INCOME TAX SITUATION. PROSPECTIVE HOLDERS OF THE 2024A BONDS SHOULD CONSULT THEIR OWN TAX ADVISORS AS TO THE TAX TREATMENT WHICH MAY BE ANTICIPATED TO RESULT FROM THE PURCHASE, OWNERSHIP AND DISPOSITION OF THE 2024A BONDS BEFORE DETERMINING WHETHER TO PURCHASE 2024A BONDS. THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION IS NOT INTENDED OR WRITTEN TO BE USED TO AVOID PENALTIES THAT MIGHT BE IMPOSED ON THE TAXPAYER IN CONNECTION WITH THE MATTERS DISCUSSED THEREIN. INVESTORS SHOULD CONSULT THEIR OWN TAX ADVISORS CONCERNING THE TAX IMPLICATIONS OF RECENTLY ENACTED LEGISLATION OR THE PURCHASE, OWNERSHIP OR DISPOSITION OF THE 2024A BONDS UNDER APPLICABLE STATE OR LOCAL LAWS, OR ANY OTHER TAX CONSEQUENCE. NON-U.S. HOLDERS SHOULD ALSO CONSULT THEIR OWN TAX ADVISORS REGARDING THE TAX CONSEQUENCES UNIQUE TO NON-U.S. HOLDERS. 55 Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences to U.S. Holders Periodic Interest Payments and Original Issue Discount. The 2024A Bonds are not obligations described in Section 103(a) of the Code. Accordingly, the stated interest paid on the 2024A Bonds or original issue discount, if any, accruing on the 2024A Bonds will be includable in "gross income" within the meaning of Section 61 of the Code of each owner thereof and be subject to federal income taxation when received or accrued, depending upon the tax accounting method applicable to such owner. Disposition of 2024A Bonds. An owner will recognize capital gain or loss on the redemption, sale, exchange or other taxable disposition of a 2024A Bond equal to the difference, if any, between the amount realized upon the disposition of such 2024A Bond (exclusive of any amount paid for accrued interest) and the owner's adjusted tax basis in the 2024A Bonds. Generally, a U.S. Holder's tax basis in the 2024A Bonds will be the owner's initial cost, increased by income reported by such U.S. Holder, including original issue discount and market discount income, and reduced, but not below zero, by any amortized premium. Any gain or loss generally will be a capital gain or loss and either will be long-term or short-term depending on whether the 2024A Bonds has been held for more than one year. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to certain limitations. Defeasance of the 2024A Bonds. Defeasance of any 2024A Bond may result in a reissuance thereof, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, in which event a U.S. Holder will recognize taxable gain or loss as described above. State, Local and Other Tax Consequences. Investors should consult their own tax advisors concerning the tax implications of holding and disposing of the 2024A Bonds under applicable state or local laws, or any other tax consequence, including the application of gift and estate taxes. PROSPECTIVE PURCHASERS OF THE 2024A BONDS SHOULD CONSULT THEIR OWN TAX ADVISORS REGARDING THE FOREGOING MATTERS. Information Reporting and Backup Withholding Subject to certain exceptions, information reports describing interest income, including original issue discount, with respect to the 2024A Bonds will be sent to each registered holder and to the IRS. Payments of interest and principal may be subject to withholding under sections 1471 through 1474 or backup withholding under Section 3406 of the Code if a recipient of the payments fails to furnish to the payor such owner's social security number or other taxpayer identification number ("TIN"), furnishes an incorrect TIN, or otherwise fails to establish an exemption from the withholding or backup withholding tax. Any amounts so withheld would be allowed as a credit against the recipient's federal income tax. Special rules apply to partnerships, estates and trusts, and in certain circumstances, and in respect of Non- U.S. Holders, certifications as to foreign status and other matters may be required to be provided by partners and beneficiaries thereof. Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences to Non-U.S. Holders A Non-U.S. Holder that is not subject to U.S. federal income tax as a result of any direct or indirect connection to the U.S. in addition to its ownership of a 2024A Bond, will not be subject to U.S. federal income or withholding tax in respect of such 2024A Bond, provided that such Non-U.S. Holder complies, to the extent necessary, with identification requirements including delivery of a signed statement under 56 penalties of perjury, certifying that such Non-U.S. Holder is not a U.S. person and providing the name and address of such Non-U.S. Holder. Absent such exemption, payments of interest, including any amounts paid or accrued in respect of accrued original issue discount, may be subject to withholding taxes, subject to reduction under any applicable tax treaty. Non-U.S. Holders are urged to consult their own tax advisors regarding the ownership, sale or other disposition of a 2024A Bond. The foregoing rules will not apply to exempt a U.S. shareholder of a controlled foreign corporation from taxation on the U.S. shareholder's allocable portion of the interest income received by the controlled foreign corporation. LEGALITY FOR INVESTMENTS By the terms of the Act, the 2024A Bonds are legal investments under the Act for all public bodies of the State, banks, trust companies, savings banks, savings associations, savings and loan associations, investment companies, administrators, executors, trustees, fiduciaries, insurance companies and associations, other persons carrying on an insurance business and all other persons who are now or may hereafter be authorized to invest in bonds or other obligations of the State. The 2024A Bonds also constitute eligible securities for deposit as collateral for the security of any State, county, municipal or other public funds. APPROVAL OF LEGALITY Legal matters incident to the authorization and validity of the 2024A Bonds are subject to the approving opinion of Nabors, Giblin & Nickerson, P.A., Tampa, Florida. The form of opinion regarding the validity of the 2024A Bonds is attached to this Official Statement as "APPENDIX E, FORM OF APPROVING OPINION" and will be available at the time of delivery of the 2024A Bonds. The actual legal opinion to be delivered by Bond Counsel may vary from the text if necessary to reflect facts and law on the date of delivery. The opinion will speak only as of its date, and subsequent distribution of it by recirculation of this Official Statement or otherwise shall create no implication that Bond Counsel has reviewed or express any opinion concerning any of the matters referenced in the opinion subsequent to its date. Certain legal matters will be passed upon for the Corporation by Nabors, Giblin & Nickerson, P.A., Tampa, Florida, Special Counsel to the Corporation. Certain legal matters will be passed upon for the SBA and the FHCF by their respective in-house counsels and by Bryant Miller Olive P.A., Tampa, Florida, Disclosure Counsel, and for the Underwriters by Greenberg Traurig, P.A., Miami, Florida. RATINGS Moody's, S&P, Fitch, and Kroll Bond Rating Agency, LLC (“Kroll”) have assigned municipal long- term ratings of "Aa3" (stable outlook), "AA" (stable outlook ), "AA" (stable outlook ), and "AA" (stable outlook ), respectively, to the 2024A Bonds. Such ratings reflect only the views of such organizations and any desired explanation of the significance of such ratings should be obtained from the rating agency furnishing the same, at the following addresses: Moody's, 7 World Trade Center at 250 Greenwich Street, New York, New York 10007; S&P, 55 Water Street, New York, New York 10041; Fitch, 33 Whitehall Street, New York, New York 10004; and Kroll, 805 Third Avenue, 29th Floor, New York, NY 10022. Generally, a rating agency bases its rating on the information and materials furnished to it and on investigations, studies and assumptions of its own. There is no assurance such ratings will continue for any given period of time or that such ratings will not be revised downward or withdrawn entirely by the rating agencies, if in the 57 judgment of such rating agencies, circumstances so warrant. Any such downward revision or withdrawal of such ratings may have an adverse effect on the market price of the 2024A Bonds.

Wells Fargo Securities is the trade name for certain securities-related capital markets and investment banking services of Wells Fargo & Company and its subsidiaries, including Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, which conducts its municipal securities sales, trading and underwriting operations through the Wells Fargo Bank, NA Municipal Finance Group, a separately identifiable department of Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission as a municipal securities dealer pursuant to Section 15B(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, acting through its Municipal Finance Group ("WFBNA"), one of the Underwriters of the 2024A Bonds, has entered into an agreement (the "WFA Distribution Agreement") with its affiliate, Wells Fargo Clearing Services, LLC (which uses the trade name “Wells Fargo Advisors”) ("WFA"), for the distribution of certain municipal securities offerings, including the 2024A Bonds. Pursuant to the WFA Distribution Agreement, WFBNA will share a portion of its underwriting or remarketing agent compensation, as applicable, with respect to the 2024A Bonds with WFA. WFBNA has also entered into an agreement (the “WFSLLC Distribution Agreement”) with its affiliate Wells Fargo Securities, LLC (“WFSLLC”), for the distribution of municipal securities offerings, including the 2024A Bonds. Pursuant to the WFSLLC Distribution Agreement, WFBNA pays a portion of WFSLLC’s expenses based on its municipal securities transactions.

The Underwriters and their respective affiliates are full service financial institutions engaged in various activities, which may include sales and trading, commercial and investment banking, advisory, investment management, investment research, principal investment, hedging, market making, brokerage and other financial and non-financial activities and services. Certain of the Underwriters and their respective affiliates have provided, and may in the future provide, a variety of these services to the Corporation and to persons and entities with relationships with the Corporation, for which they received or will receive customary fees and expenses. In the ordinary course of their various business activities, the Underwriters and their respective affiliates, officers, directors and employees may purchase, sell or hold a broad array of investments and actively trade securities, derivatives, loans, commodities, currencies, credit default swaps and other financial instruments for their own account and for the accounts of their customers, and such investment and trading activities may involve or relate to assets, securities and/or instruments of the Corporation (directly, as collateral securing other obligations or otherwise) and/or persons and entities with relationships with the Corporation. The Underwriters and their respective affiliates may also communicate independent investment recommendations, market color or trading ideas and/or publish or express independent research views in respect of such assets, securities or instruments and may at any time hold, or recommend to clients that they should acquire, long and/or short positions in such assets, securities and instruments. 59 CONTINUING DISCLOSURE The Corporation and the SBA, acting as the governing body and administrator of the FHCF, will undertake, for the benefit of the owners of the 2024A Bonds, to provide, or cause to be provided, certain financial information and operating data and to provide notices of certain enumerated events. Such financial information and operating data will be transmitted to the Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board (the "MSRB") using its Electronic Municipal Market Access system ("EMMA"). Event notices also will be transmitted to the MSRB using EMMA. The form of the undertaking is set forth in "APPENDIX F, FORM OF CONTINUING DISCLOSURE AGREEMENT." This undertaking is being made in order to assist the Underwriters in complying with Rule 15c2-12 of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Rule"). In the past five years, neither the Corporation nor the SBA has failed, in any material respect, to make any filings required by their continuing disclosure undertakings. The Corporation has elected to use the Division of Bond Finance to perform its continuing disclosure filings. INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY SECURITY Similar to other large organizations, the State relies on electronic systems and information technologies ("IT") to conduct operations. Protecting the State’s IT infrastructure and data is essential to delivering government services. The FHCF, as part of the SBA, protects its data and IT infrastructure through a multifaceted cybersecurity strategy. The FHCF’s cybersecurity strategy includes a comprehensive set of security policies and procedures which are designed to guide staff in their cybersecurity responsibilities; a security awareness program, which educates staff on active cybersecurity threats and security best practices; and a risk-based threat and vulnerability management program, which is continuously monitored by a third- party service provider. Additionally, the FHCF has implemented access and authentication protocols, which include multi-factor authentication and industry standard encryption to protect data in transit and at rest. As a further precaution, the FHCF’s cybersecurity program is subjected to routine internal audits to evaluate the effectiveness of the program, as well as annual external audits and penetration testing to identify opportunities to improve its security posture. The FHCF’s cybersecurity strategy is supported by administrative and technical controls which assist in identifying potential threats and preventing attacks that may target the FHCF’s data and IT systems. In the event a cybersecurity issue arises, the FHCF has an incident response capability to quickly address such issues, including comprehensive plans and external services to assist with incident response, crisis communication, and breach notification management. ENVIRONMENTAL RISK MITIGATION AND RESILIENCY With more than 2,000 linear miles of coastline and relatively low elevations, weather and natural resources affect the State’s economy in a variety of ways. Economic activity attributable to in-migration and tourism represents a significant part of the State’s economy, and the State’s warm weather and beaches attract seasonal and permanent residents and tourists. In addition, a majority of the State’s residents live and work in coastal counties. Because of the State’s reliance on its natural resources to generate business and sustain in-migration, its economy and financial condition may be vulnerable to the impacts of environmental events, including hurricanes and inland and coastal flooding, as well as long-term environmental risks associated with climate change. 60 The State has dedicated leadership and a variety of resources that have enabled it to effectively respond to environmental events. The State has a demonstrated history of protecting and preserving valuable natural resources, mitigating the impacts of environmental risks on public and private property, and providing funding for projects to improve the State’s resilience. However, the frequency of environmental events, such as hurricanes, may increase on an annual basis according to models and forecasts. The State’s demographic and economic growth have steadily increased the value of property at risk from any single environmental event even as improvements in building codes, innovations in construction, and mitigation and resiliency efforts have reduced disaster mortality. Consequently, the magnitude of the impact from environmental risks on the State’s operations, economy, or financial condition is indeterminate and is unpredictable for future environmental events. There can be no assurance that such risks will not have an adverse effect on the operations, economy, or financial condition of the State. Environmental resiliency efforts are a joint responsibility of local government and state leadership. The State is taking a coordinated approach to maximize the benefit of mitigation efforts and to improve the State’s resilience to weather events, such as hurricanes, flooding, and sea level rise. Statewide resiliency efforts are directed and coordinated by the Statewide Office of Resilience within the Executive Office of the Governor, the Department of Environmental Projection (“DEP”), and the Division of Emergency Management (“DEM”). Additionally, the Chief Science Officer, housed within DEP, is charged with coordinating and prioritizing scientific data, research, monitoring, and analysis needs to ensure alignment with current and emerging environmental concerns most pressing to the State. The State has financial reserves available to cover response-related expenditures, and, in most cases, the State can request reimbursement from federal relief funds to pay for a portion of such expenditures. Further, upon a declaration of a state of emergency, State law provides the Governor broad spending authority to meet financial needs resulting from a disaster, including access to a $500 million Emergency Preparedness and Response Fund. Notwithstanding multiple hurricanes, State finances and the economy have only experienced temporary economic disruption. The State can respond to the impacts of environmental events through DEM which provides comprehensive, statewide planning for and response to both natural and manmade disasters, including floods and hurricanes. DEM coordinates its efforts with the federal government, State agencies, local governments, and private sector organizations. In addition to coordinating the State’s operational response activities during emergencies and disasters, DEM prepares and implements a statewide Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan that describes the basic strategies, assumptions, operational objectives, and mechanisms through which resources are mobilized and disaster assistance is provided. DEM routinely conducts extensive exercises to test State and county emergency response capabilities. The State has a singular, statewide, standard building code, which establishes requirements for all public and private buildings, structures, and facilities across the State. It is the minimum standard that all counties and municipalities are required to enforce. The code includes flood provisions that meet or exceed the federal flood insurance requirements and imposes more stringent requirements on construction in areas that are more susceptible to adverse impacts from hurricanes. State law limits development and imposes strict construction standards for most activities along the coastline and requires DEP to regulate coastal construction to protect the State’s coastline from construction that would be overly susceptible to environmental impacts. State law also requires local governments in coastal areas to have a “Peril of Flood” coastal management element in their comprehensive plans to reduce flood risk and eliminate unsafe development. Public entities are also required to conduct Sea Level Impact Projection (“SLIP”) studies 61 before undertaking building projects within the coastal building zones. Each SLIP study assesses the project’s risks of flooding, inundation, and wave damage based on appropriate flood mitigation strategies. The State works to reduce the impact of environmental events through a number of targeted programs. DEP and DEM administer several programs that offer technical assistance and funding related to flooding, sea level rise, and environmental impacts to Florida’s coastline. DEM also works with local governments to administer their local flood damage reduction regulations and provides technical assistance to improve their administration of local floodplain management and building code requirements and ensure compliance with development regulations. Due to their increasing frequency and severity, the impact of hurricanes on the State’s operation, economy, or financial condition is indeterminate and unpredictable. The FHCF was created to provide a stable and ongoing source of reimbursement to insurers and to provide resilience for the Florida insurance market. The risk of hurricanes is difficult to predict, however, Colorado State University forecasts named storms for each hurricane season. The table below shows the predictions from seasonal forecasters at Colorado State University for the last five hurricane seasons, along with the number of actual named storms that occurred in each season. Atlantic Hurricane Season Predicted Named Storms Actual Named Storms 2019 13 18 2020 16 30 2021 17 21 2022 19 14 2023 13 20 2024 23 - Source: Colorado State University SECONDARY MARKET There can be no assurance that there will be a secondary market for the purchase or sale of the 2024A Bonds, and there may be no market for the 2024A Bonds depending upon prevailing market conditions, the financial condition or market position of firms who make up the secondary market and the insurance landscape in the State. The Underwriters are not obligated to create a secondary market for the purchase or sale of the 2024A Bonds. The 2024A Bonds should therefore be considered long-term investments in which funds are committed to maturity. If such secondary market exists after the issuance of the 2024A Bonds, events such as decreases in benchmark interest rate indices, downward revisions or withdrawals of ratings on the 2024A Bonds, and general market turmoil, among others, may adversely affect the liquidity of the 2024A Bonds or the value of the 2024A Bonds on such secondary market. Owners of 2024A Bonds may experience a loss of value of such 2024A Bond prior to maturity.

DEMOGRAPHIC & ECONOMIC INFORMATION Population Florida ranks as the third most populous state, with an estimated population of 22.6 million as of April 1, 2023. This represents a slight 0.03% increase from April 1, 2022. Florida’s average annual population growth rate was 1.7% from 2000 to 2010, which exceeded the nation’s average annual population growth rate of 0.9% over the same period. However, Florida’s average annual population growthratedecreasedto 0.8% between 2011 and 2013, which was on pace with the U.S. average annual growth rate of 0.8% for the same time period. Beginning in 2015, Florida’s average annual population growth rate rebounded to 1.62%orhigherwhiletheU.S.averageannualgrowthrateremained at 0.74% or lower for the same time period, until Fiscal Year 2020-21 when Florida’s average annual population growth rate dipped to 1.49% (U.S. rate during that period not available yet). Typically, there are two drivers of population growth – natural increases (births minus deaths) and net migration (people moving into the state minus people moving out of the State). Historically, Florida’s population growth has been driven by positive net migration; however, net migration fell to record low levels during muchof 2008 and into 2009, during which period natural increase exceeded net migration. Net migration returned as a decisive factor beginning in 2016 as Florida’s population continues to increase. Population Change Florida and U.S.* Florida U. S.

(Remainder of page intentionally left blank) A-2 The age distribution of Florida’s population differs from that of thenationbecause Florida has a somewhat larger elderlypopulation and a slightly smaller working age population than the nation. Florida’s 2010population aged 65 or older was 17.3% of the State’s population and increased to 21.2% by 2020. Whereas the nation’s population aged 65 or older in 2010 was approximately 13.0% and 16.8% in 2020. Florida’s2010 working age population (18-64) was 61.4% of total population and declined to 59.4% in 2020, and by comparison, the working age population (18-64) in the US in 2010 was 62.9% of total population currently and 61.1% in 2020.

Florida’s Gross Domestic Product Florida’s Gross Domestic Product (“GDP”) represents the value of goods and services produced by the State and serves as a broad measure of the State’s economy. According to the U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA), Florida’s GDP for 2021 was estimated at $1,012 billion, which is approximately 7.8% higher than 2020 GDP of $938 billion. Private industry accounted for 90% of Florida’s 2021 GDP and government accounted for the remaining 10%. Real estate and rental/leasing was the largest single industry, accounting for 18% of Florida’s 2021 GDP. Tourism is not treated as a separate industry sector but remains an important aspect of the Florida economy. Its financial impact is reflected in a broad range of market sectors, such as transportation, communications, retail trade and services, and in State tax revenues generated by business activities which cater to visitors, such as hotels, restaurants, admissions, and gift shops. According to the Florida Economic Estimating Conference, approximately 134 million people visited the State in 2022, a 4% increase from approximately 129 million visitors in 2019. A majority of the tourism-related industries are in the leisure and hospitality industry sector of the Florida economy, and, according to the BEA, the leisure and hospitality industry was responsible for approximately 5.1% of Florida’s GDP in 2021.

Florida was the 6th largest exporter in the nation in 2022. The State’s international merchandise trade (imports and exports) reached an all-time record of $190 billion in 2022, which was an increase of 15.6% when compared to 2021. The State’s trade with the world has grown by more than 40% since 2020. The State’s top five exports for 2022 were aircraft, telecommunications equipment, data processing machines, vehicles, and vaccines. The top imports for that year were vehicles, repairs and returns, refined copper and alloys, gold, and fish. Florida’s top trading partners for 2022 were Brazil, China, Chile, Colombia, and the Dominican Republic.

(Remainder of page intentionally left blank) A-9 FLORIDA RETIREMENT SYSTEM (Source: Florida Department of Management Services, Division of Retirement, except as otherwise indicated.) General.The FloridaRetirement System (“FRS”) was establishedbytheFloridaLegislatureeffectiveDecember 1, 1970, pursuant to Chapter 121, Florida Statutes (the “Act”) by consolidating the state’s existing State-administered retirement systems into one system. In addition to Chapter 121, the FRS is governed by Article X, Section 14 of the State Constitution, which prohibits increasing benefits without concurrently providing for funding the increase on a sound actuarial basis. The FRS provides retirement, disability, and death benefits for participating public employees. The FRS is a cost-sharing, multiple-employer, retirement plan. The FRS Defined Benefit Program (also referred to as the FRS Pension Plan) is administered by the Division of Retirement in the Department of Management Services (“DMS”). The assets of the FRS Pension Plan are held in the FRS Trust Fund and are invested by the State Board of Administration. The FRS Investment Plan was created by the Florida Legislature as a defined contribution plan alternative to the FRS Pension Plan and is administered by the State Board of Administration. In addition to these two primary, integrated programs there are non-integrated defined contribution plan alternatives available to targeted employee groups in the State University System, the State Community College System, and members of the Senior Management Service Class. In the FRS Pension Plan, a monthly benefit is paid to retired employees in a fixed amount calculated at the time of retirement as determined by a statutory formula. The amount of the monthly benefit is generally based on the years of service credits and salary. The benefit is paid to the retiree for life and, if applicable, a survivor benefit is paid to the designated beneficiary at the death of the retiree. In the FRS Investment Plan, the employee’s benefit is comprised of the accumulated required contributions and investment earnings on those contributions. Instead of guaranteed benefits based on a formula, the contributions to the member account are guaranteed by the plan and the investment risk is assumed by the employee. Since theemployer’s obligation to make contributions to the FRS Investment Plan does not extend beyond the required contribution from current payroll, the employer’s funding obligation for a Defined Contribution Plan is fully funded as long as these contributions are made. FRS membership is compulsory for employees working in regularlyestablishedpositionsforastateagency,county governmental unit, district school board, state university, state college or participating city, independent special district, charter school or metropolitan planning district, except for retirees initially reemployed on or after July 1, 2010, who may not be enrolled. As of June 30, 2022, The State’s allocable portion of FRS Contributions was approximately 16.4%. There are five classes of plan membership: Regular Class, Special Risk Class, Special Risk Administrative Support Class,Elected Officers' Class ("EOC"), and Senior Management Service Class ("SMSC"). For members initially enrolled in the FRS on or after January 1, 2018, enrollees who do not make an initial selection will default into the FRS Investment Plan, except for Special Risk Class, which will continue to default into the FRS Pension Plan. Elected officials who are eligible to participate in the EOC may elect to withdrawfromtheFRSaltogetherorchoosetoparticipate in the SMSC in lieu of the EOC. Regular Class membership covers any position that is not designated to participate in any other membership class. (Remainder of page intentionally left blank) A-10 Participation by cities, municipalities, special districts, charter schools, and metropolitan planning districts although optional, is generally irrevocable once the election to participate is made. As of June 30, 2023, there were 991 participating employers enrolling new members and 44 participating employers closed to new FRS membership with grandfathered FRS members, and 1,247,454 individual members, as follows: Retirees & Beneficiaries . . . . . . . .. . 455,6011 Terminated Vested Members . . . .. . 117,809 DROP Participants . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 27,767 Active Vested Members . . . . . . . . . . 468,176 Active Non-vested members . . . .. . 178,101 TOTAL . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .. . 1,247,4542 ___________ 1Excludes Teachers’ Retirement System Survivors’ Benefit ("TRS- SB"), General Revenue payment recipients and FRS Investment Plan members who received a distribution. 2Includes FRS Pension Plan and Investment Plan members. Benefits.Retirement benefits under the FRS Pension Plan are computed using aformulacomprised ofageand/or years of serviceat retirement, averagefinal compensation andtotalpercentagebasedon theaccrual value by plan or membership class of service credit. Chapter 2011-68, Laws of Florida, became law on July 1,2011. Chapter 2011-68createdsignificant reforms tothe FRS, most notably by requiring that FRS members contribute to the FRS and by establishing a “two-tier” benefit system with less generous benefits for employees who became members of the FRS on or after July 1, 2011 (“Post-July 2011 Members”), as compared to those provided to employees who were members of the FRS prior to July 1, 2011 (“Pre- July 2011 Members”). FRS Pension Plan members receive one month of service credit for each month in which any salary is paid. Pre- July 2011 Members vest after six years of service for all membership classes and Post-July 2011 Members vest after eight years of service for all membership classes. Members vest after eight years for non-duty related disability benefits. After they are vested, members are eligible for normal retirement when they have met the minimum age or service requirements for their membership class. For Pre-July 2011 Members of the Regular Class, SMSC and the EOC, normal retirement is age 62 and vested, or 30 years of service regardless of age, and age 65 and vested, or 33 years of service regardless of age for Post-July 2011 members. For Members of the Special Risk Class, normal retirement is age 55 and vested, or 25 years of service regardless of age. Early retirement may be taken any time after vesting subject to a 5% benefit reduction for each year prior to normal retirement age. Summary of FRS Pension Plan Benefits . Vesting Period Regular Class, SMSC, EOC Special Risk Class Pre-July 2011 Members 6 years 62 years old or 30 years of service 55 years old or 25 years ofservice Post-July 2011 Members 8 years 65 years old or 33 years of service 55 years old or 25 years ofservice A-11 Members with an effective retirement date (includes DROP participation) before August 1, 2011, receive a 3% post-retirement COLA and members with an effective retirement date or DROP begin date on or after August 1, 2011, receive an individually calculated COLA based on the total years of service before July 1, 2011, by the total years of service at retirement, and then multiplying the result by 3% to get the retiree’s COLA. Members initially enrolled on or after July 1, 2011, will not have a post-retirement COLA. The average final compensation used in calculating retirement benefits is the highest five fiscal years for Pre-July 2011 Members and the highest eight fiscal years of salary for Post-July 2011 Members. FRS Pension Plan members who reach normal retirement may participate in the Deferred Retirement Option Program(“DROP”),which allows amember toeffectively retirewhiledeferringtermination andto continue employment for up to 96 months (or 120 months for some instructional personnel under certain conditions). The retirement benefit is calculated as of the beginning of DROP participation and no further service is accrued. During DROP participation the member’s retirementbenefitsaccumulateintheFRSTrustFund,earningmonthly interest at an equivalent annual rate of 6.50% for members with an effective DROP begin date before July 1, 2011, and an equivalent annual rate of 4% for members with an effective DROP begin date on or after July 1, 2011. At termination the member’s DROP accumulation may be paid out as a lump sum, a rollover, or a combination of these two payout methods and the member begins receiving monthly benefits determined when DROP participation began, increased by annual cost of living adjustments. FRS Investment Plan members invest their contributions in the investment options offered under the plan. FRS Investment Plan members receive one month of service credit for each month in which any salary is paid and vest in their employer contributions after one year of service under the FRS Investment Plan. Members are immediately vested in their employee contributions. If a present value amount is transferred from the FRS Pension Plan to the member’s FRS Investment Plan account as the opening balance, the member must meet the FRS Pension Plan vesting requirement for any such transferred funds and associated earnings. FRS members vest immediately for in-line-of-duty disability benefits or after eight years for non-duty related disability benefits if totally and permanently disabled from all employment. FRS Pension Plan members receive disability monthly benefits until no longer disabled. Periodic reexamination is conducted to verify continued disability retirement eligibility. FRS Investment Plan members may elect to surrender their account balance to the FRS Trust Fund to receive guaranteed monthly benefits under the FRS Pension Plan. Alternatively, FRS Investment Plan members may retaintheir account balance to fund their future retirement needs in lieu of guaranteed monthly benefits under the FRS Pension Plan. FRS Investment Plan members who retain their account balances to fund their disability retirementmayleavetheirfundsinvestedintheplan,structureperiodic payments, purchase an annuity, receive a lump- sum payment of their account balance, rollover their monies into another eligible plan qualified under the Internal Revenue Code, or a combination of these options. The service retirement benefits of FRS Investment Plan members are their account balances at the time they choose to retire as managed by the member throughout retirement. FRS Investment Plan members may leave their funds invested in the plan, structure periodic benefit payments under their investment contracts, purchase an annuity, rollovertheirfundstoadifferentqualifiedplan,receivealump- sum payment representing their account balance in part or in whole, annuitize some or all of their account, or a combination of these options. Certain Senior Management Service Class members, State University System faculty, Executive Service staff, Administrative and Professional Service staff, and Florida College System faculty and certain administrators may elect to participate in the existing, non- integrated optional defined contribution programs for these targeted employee groups instead of either of the two primary integrated programs offered under the FRS, the FRS Pension Plan and the FRS Investment Plan. The Senior Management Service Optional Annuity Program was closed to new participants effective July 1, 2017. At the time of closure, fewer than 30 members participated in this optional retirement program. Funding.From the establishment of the FRS through 1975 both employers and members were required to pay retirement contributions. Members contributions were made on a post-tax basis. From 1975 through June 30, 2011, employers paid all required contributions. Beginning July 1, 2011, both employer and members are required to pay A-12 retirementcontributions. Memberscontribute3%oftheirsalaryas retirement contributions, on a pre-tax basis, with the employer automatically deducting the employee contributions from the members’ salary. Members participating in the Deferred Retirement Option Program (“DROP”) and re-employed retirees, who are not allowed to renew membership in the FRS, are not required to make 3% employee contributions. The contribution rates for the FRS Investment Plan are set by statute and the FRS Pension Plan rates, which are determined annually by the Legislature based on an actuarial valuation and any plan changes adopted during the legislative session. (See "Schedule of Funding Progress" below). These two rates are “blended” to create the uniform contribution rate for the primary, integrated FRS programs as required under Part III of Chapter 121, F.S. FRS employers pay a single rate by membership class or sub-class for members of thetwo primary, integrated FRS plans. The portion of the required FRS Investment Plan contribution rate destined for the member’s account is forwarded to the FRS Investment Plan’s administrator and the portion for Pension Plan funding is forwarded to the FRS Trust Fund. The employer contribution rates for the non-integrated defined contribution plans are set by statute and forwarded to the specified provider company under the program. The table below shows the number of persons receiving benefits from the FRS Pension Plan, the total benefits paid, and the average benefits for the last five fiscal years.

Funding and Financial Reporting of the FRS. The Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) adopted two accounting statements, GASB 67 (for reporting at the pension plan level) and GASB 68 (for employer reporting requirements including their allocation of net pension liability and pension expense), which require pension plans and employers to report total pension plan liabilities (Total Pension Liability), as well as the value of the plans’ assets (Fiduciary Net Position) and the unfunded portion of the liability (Net Pension Liability or NPL) in both the plans’ and the employers’ financial statements. GASB 67 was effective for plan fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2013, and GASB 68 was effective for employer fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2014. GASB 67 and GASB 68 separated the funding considerations from the financial reporting requirements. Employers are able to compare the funding valuation contributions to the actuarially determined contribution (ADC) determined under the GASB 67 requirements and comparisons of retirement plans under GASB 67 and 68 have a common basis. Total Pension Liability (TPL) is required to be reported under the individual entry age normal actuarial cost method regardless of the actuarial cost method used for funding purposes. The plans’ Fiduciary Net Position (FNP) assets must be shown on a market value basis rather than the actuarial value of assets which is typically smoothedover a period of years to reduce volatility. Valuation of Assets.The actuarial value of plan assets is necessary in order to determine the funded ratio of the plan by comparing the plan’s actuarial liabilities to its actuarial value of assets. A plan's assets are generally valued either at the market value of assets (GASB valuation) or the Actuarial Value of Assets (funding valuation). The market value of assets looks at the fair market value of the assets as of a given point in time. The Actuarial Value of Assets reflects the value of plan assets as determined by the plans’ actuary for purposes of an actuarial valuation. The actuarial valuation measure reflects a five-year smoothing methodology (the “Asset Smoothing Method”), as required by Section 121.031(3)(a), Florida Statutes. The Asset Smoothing Method prevents extreme fluctuations in the Actuarial Value of Assets, the Unfunded Actuarial Liability (UAL) and the funded ratio that may otherwise occur as a result of market volatility. Asset smoothing delays recognition of gains and losses and is intended to decrease A-13 the volatility of employer contribution rates. The Actuarial Value of Assets is not the market value of Florida Retirement System Trust Fund assets at the time of measurement. As a result, presenting the Actuarial Value of Assets using the Asset Smoothing Method might provide a more or less favorable presentation of the current financial position of a pension plan than would a method that recognizes the full value of investment gains and losses annually. The actuarial valuation of the FRS uses a variety of assumptions to calculate the actuarial liability and the ActuarialValueof Assets. No assurance can be given that any of the assumptions underlying the actuarial valuations will reflect the actual results experienced by the FRS. Variances between the assumptions and actual results may cause an increase or decrease in the actuarial value of assets, the actuarial liability, the UAL, or the funded ratio. Non-Economic Assumptions. The FRS conducts an actuarial experience study every five years. The purpose of the experience study is to compare the actual plan experience with the assumptions for the previous five-year period and determine the adequacy of the non-economic actuarial assumptions including, for example, those relating to mortality, retirement, disability, employment, and turnover of the members and beneficiaries of the FRS. Based upon the results of this review and the recommendation of the actuary, the FRS Actuarial Assumption Conference may adopt changes to such actuarial assumptions as it deems appropriate for incorporation beginning with the valuation following the experience study period. The most recent experience study was completed in 2019 and the Conferenceadopted the assumptions recommended by the actuary. Actuarial Assumptions. The FRS is required to conduct an actuarial valuation of the plan annually. The valuation process includes a review of the major actuarial assumptions used by the plan actuary, which may be changed during the FRS Actuarial Assumption Conference that occurs each fall. See “Actuarial Cost Method and Amortization Method” and “Assumed Investment Rate of Return” herein for further discussion. As of July 1, 2023, FRS actuarial determinations for funding purposes and for GASB 67 reporting purposes are based on the following: 1 The plan’s fiduciary net position was projected to be available to make all projected future benefit payments of current active and inactive employees in determining the projected depletion date. Therefore, the discount rate for calculating the total pension liability is equal to the long-term expected rate of return. 2 Granted only for pre-July 1, 2011, service; 0% thereafter.

The length of the amortization period is 20 years for all bases, which is considered a best practice. Assumed Investment Rate of Return. Both the actuarial funding valuation adopted by the Conference and the financial reporting valuation used in the FRS financial statements assume a long-term investment rate of return on the assets in the FRS Trust Fund. The investment return assumption adopted by the Conference each year is used to calculate the actuarially required contribution in the FRS annual actuarial valuation (“funding purposes”). The investment return assumption, which may or may not be the same as the return assumption used for funding purposes, used in the FRS financial statements is used to calculate the unfunded pension liability for financial reporting in the State’s financial statements. The most recent financial statements available for the FRS are for Fiscal Year 2022-23, which reflected an investment return assumption of 6.70%. The most recent investment return assumption adopted by the Conference on October 23, 2023, and used for funding purposes beginning in Fiscal Year 2024-25, was 6.70%. The investment return assumption used for funding purposes has been reduced incrementally since 2014 from 7.75% to the current assumption; however, in prior years, there was a difference in the investment return assumptions used for funding purposes and financial reporting purposes. A disparity between such investment return assumptions causes a difference in the unfunded pension liability calculated for the financial reporting (NPL) and the unfunded pension liability calculated for funding purposes by Actuary in the FRS annual actuarial valuation (UAL). A disparity between the investment return assumptions also causes a difference in the funded ratio disclosed in more detail under the tables entitled “Schedule of Funding Progress” herein. Additionally, usinga higher investment return assumptionforcalculatingthe actuarially determined contribution ratehas a material impact on the amount of the contribution required to the FRS. Due to the volatility of the marketplace, the actual rate of return earned by the FRS Trust Fund on its assets may be higher or lower than the assumed rate. Changes in the FRS Trust Fund's assets as a result of market performance will lead to an increase or decrease in the UAL/NPL and the funded ratio. The five-year Asset Smoothing Method required by Florida law forfunding purposes attenuates the impact of sudden market fluctuations. Only a portion of these increases or decreases will be recognized in the current year, with the remaining gain or loss spread over the remaining four years. The table below shows the assumed and actual rates of investment return for the last ten years, as well as the differences between the two, and additionally shows annualized returns for the most recent 3, 5, and 10-year periods. No assurance can be given about future market performance and its impact on the UAL/NPL.

The following table shows employer contributions to the FRS Pension Plan. Annually, the FRS's actuary recommends rates, determined as a percentage of employee payrolls that FRS employers must contribute to fully fund their annual pension obligations. The Actuarially Determined Contribution (the "ADC") is a target contribution to the FRS Pension Plan for the reporting period, determined based on the funding policy and most recent measurement available when the contribution for the reporting period was adopted. The ADC is comprised of the FRS PensionPlan’s Normal Cost plus any Unfunded Actuarial Liability, which is also called the Actuarially Determined Contribution (the "ADC"). The ADC reflects only the actuarially determined employer contributions. The Florida Legislature adopts rates that all participating FRS employers must pay on behalf of their employees, which may or may not correspond to the actuary's recommended rates. The Florida Legislature failed to adopt rates sufficient to fully fund the ADC between Fiscal Years 2011 through 2013. Failure to adopt rates sufficient to fully fund the ADC exacerbates the impact of investment earnings below the return assumption that contribute to the decline in the funded status of the FRS. For Fiscal Years 2014 through 2023, the Florida Legislature adopted the employer contribution rates recommended by the Actuary which fully funded the ADC; however, the ADC was calculated using certain assumptions that are not based on actuarial best practices. See “Actuarial Cost Method and Amortization Method” for more information.

RETIREE HEALTH INSURANCE SUBSIDY AND OTHER POSTEMPLOYMENT BENEFITS (The information contained under the heading “RETIREE HEALTH INSURANCE SUBSIDY AND OTHER POSTEMPLOYMENT BENEFITS” has been obtained from the State of Florida’s and Florida Retirement System Pension Plan and other State Administered Systems Comprehensive Annual Financial Reports except as otherwise indicated.) Retiree Health Insurance Subsidy Program TheRetireeHealthInsuranceSubsidy(“HIS”)Programisacost-sharing multiple-employer defined benefit pension plan established under Section 112.363, F.S. The Florida Legislature establishes and amends the contribution requirements and benefit terms of the HIS Program. The benefit is a monthly payment to assist eligible retirees and surviving beneficiaries of state-administered retirement systems in paying their health insurance costs and is administered by the Division of Retirement within the Department of Management Services (“DMS”). Eligible retirees and beneficiaries receiveda monthly HISpayment equal tothe number of years of creditable service completed at the time of retirement multiplied by $7.50. The payments are at least $45 but not more than $225 per month, pursuant to Section 112.363, F.S, representing an increase from $5 per year of service ($30 minimum and $150 maximum per month) for the Fiscal Year ended June 30, 2023. To be eligible to receive a HIS benefit, a retiree under a state- administered retirement system must provide proof of health insurance coverage, which can include Medicare. The HIS Program is funded by required contributions from FRS participating employers as set by the Legislature. Employer contributions are a percentage of gross compensation forallactiveFRSmembers. EffectiveJuly1,2023,the statutorily requiredcontributionratepursuanttoSection112.363,F.S. increased to 2% of payroll, up from 1.66% during the Fiscal year ended June 30, 2023. The State has contributed 100% of its statutorily required contributions for the current and preceding two years. HIS contributions are deposited in a separate trust fund from which HIS payments are authorized. HIS benefits are not guaranteed and are subject to annual legislative appropriation. In the event the legislative appropriation or available funds fail to provide full subsidy benefits to all participants, the legislature may reduce or cancel HIS payments. Information relating to the statutorily required State contribution, benefits paid and the resulting trust fund assets is shown below, for Fiscal Years ending June 30.

Other Postemployment Benefits (OPEB) The following information is based on the July 1, 2022, actuarial valuation of the State Employees’ Health Insurance Program. Plan Description The State Employees’ Group Health Insurance Program (“Program”) operates as a cost-sharing multiple- employer defined benefit health plan; however, current administration of the Program is not through a formal trust and therefore disclosure requirements are those applicable to an agent multiple-employer plan. The Division of State Group Insurance within the DMS is designated by Section 110.123, F.S., to be responsible for all aspects of the purchase of healthcare for state and university employees and retirees under the Program. The State implicitly subsidizes the healthcare premium rates paid by retirees by allowing them to participate in the same group health plan offered to active employees. Although retirees pay 100% of the premium amount, the premium cost to the retiree is implicitly subsidized due to commingling of the claims experience in a single risk pool with a single premium determination for active employees and retirees under age 65. Section 110.123, F.S., authorizes the offering of health insurance benefits to retired state and university employees. Section 112.0801, F.S., requires all public employers that offer benefits through a group insurance plan to allow their retirees to continue participation in the plan. The law also requires the claims experience of the retirees under 65 group to be combined with the claims experience of active employees for premium determination and the premium offered to retired employees to be no more than the premium applicable to active employees. Retirees under age 65 pay the same premium amounts as applicable to active employees. Retirees over age 65 are included in the overall risk pool but pay a lesser premium amount than is applicable to active employees because the plan is secondary payer to Medicare Parts A and B. Retirees are required to enroll in the Medicare program as soon as they are eligible. There are 21 participating employers including the primary government of the State, the 12 State universities, and other governmental entities. There was an enrollment of 161,218 subscribers including 33,953 retirees at July 1, 2022. Employees must make an election to participate in the plan within 60 days of the effective date of their retirement to be eligible to continue in the plan as a retiree. Four types of health plans are offered to eligible participants: a standard statewide Preferred Provider Organization (“PPO”) Plan, a high deductible PPO Plan, a standard Health Maintenance Organization (“HMO”) Plan, and a high deductible HMO Plan. HMO coverage is available only to those A-21 retirees who live or work in the HMO’s service area. The four PPO and HMO options are considered managed-care plans and have specific provider networks. Accounting and Reporting Changes As of fiscal year end June 30, 2017, the state implemented GASB Statement No. 75 (“GASB 75”), which establishes standards for recognizing and measuring OPEB liabilities, deferred outflows of resources, deferred inflows of resources, and expenses/expenditures. GASB 75 replaces the requirements of GASB Statements No. 45. The implementationofGASB75requiredrestatementofbeginningequityand the recordingof deferred outflows of resources and deferred inflows of resources related to OPEB in the financial statements. Additionally, implementation required changes to the notes to the financial statements and required supplemental information for OPEB plans. Specifically, GASB 75 requires net OPEB liabilities to be accounted for on the face of the balance sheet, instead of the notes. In addition, while GASB 45 allowed the amortization of an unfunded liability over a period of up to 30 years, GASB 75 requires the entire OPEB liability to be reported, which has the effect of increasing the net fiduciary position for employers that previously elected to amortize the liability. Further, while GASB 45 allowed the choice of one of six different “cost methods,” GASB 75 establishes one cost method for attributing the present value of benefit payments to specific years, which will allow for more comparability and create more transparency when surveying similar plans. GASB 75 generally requires an actuarial evaluation every 2 years, where the requirement under GASB 45 varied between two or three years depending on the number of employees. Below is the additional information required under GASB 75: •Reconciliation of changes in deferred outflows and inflows. •Impact on OPEB liability of a 1% increase and 1% decrease in the discount rate; and the healthcare cost trend rate. •Effects of changes during the period on total OPEB liability. •A 10-year schedule of employer’s proportion and proportionate share of Collective Net OPEB liability, employer’s covered- employee payroll, the employer’s proportionate share of Collective Net OPEB liability as a percent of employer’s covered-employee payroll, and OPEB Plan’s Fiduciary net position as a percent of total OPEB liability. Funding Policy Benefit provisions are described by Section 110.123, F.S.and, along with contributions, can be amended by the Florida Legislature. The State has not advance-funded OPEB costs or the net OPEB obligation. TheSelf-Insurance EstimatingConferencedevelopsofficial information for determining the budget levels needed for the State’s planning and budgeting process. The Governor’s recommended budget and the General Appropriations Act provide for a premium level necessary for funding the program each year on a pay-as-you-go basis. No assets are accumulated in a trust that meets the criteria of GASB 75. Premiums are pay 100% by retirees participating in the plan. Monthly premiums, through June 2023 coverage, for active employees and retirees under the age of 65 for standard coverage were $813 and $1,831 for single and family contracts, respectively. Retirees over the age of 65 pay premiums for a Medicare supplement. Monthly premiums, through June 2022 coverage, for the standard PPO Plan were $430 for a single contract, $860 for two Medicare eligible members, and $1,244 for a family contract when only one member is Medicare eligible. Actuarial Methods and Assumptions Actuarial valuations involve estimates of the value of reported amounts and assumptions about the probability of events far into the future, and actuarially determined amounts are subject to continual revision as actual results are compared to past expectations and new estimates are made about the future. Actuarial calculations reflect a long-term perspective. Consistent with that perspective, actuarial methods and assumptions used include techniques that are designed to reduce short-term volatility in actuarial accrued liabilities and the actuarial value of assets. A-22 The total OPEB liability was determined by an actuarial valuation as of July 1, 2022. The following actuarial assumptions wereused: •Discount Rate: 4.09% •Investment Rate or Return: 0.00% •Inflation: 2.60% •Salary Increase: varies by FRS Class In general, the discount rate for calculating the total OPEB liability under GASB 75 is equal to the single rate equivalent to discounting at the long-term expected rate of return for benefit payments prior to the projecteddepletion date. BecausetheOPEBbenefitisessentiallyfunded on a pay-as-you-go basis, the depletion date is considered to be immediate. All future benefits were discounted using a high quality municipal bond rate of 4.09%. This rate was based on the week closest to but not later than the measurement date of the Bond Buyer 20-Bond Indexes published by the Federal Reserve and increased from 2.18% from the prior valuation. The 20-Bond Index consists of 20 general obligation bonds that mature in 20 years. The average rating of the 20 bonds is roughly equivalent to Moody’s Investors Service’s Aa2 rating and Fitch and Standard & Poor’s AA. The healthcare cost trend rates used are consistent with the Report on the Financial Outlook for the Fiscal Years Ending June 30, 2022, through June 30, 2027, as presented on August 10, 2022, by the Self- Insurance Estimating Conference conducted by the Office of Economic and Demographic Research. The trend rates are a key assumption used in determining the costs of the plan, and these rates have been developed in a manner consistent with actuarial industry standards. Trend rate assumptions vary slightly by medical plan. For the HMO plans, the initial rate is 7.53%, reaching an ultimaterateof4.04%foryearsafter2075.ForthePPOplans,theinitialrate is 10.31%, reachingan ultimate rate of 4.04% for years after 2075. Post-retirement participation also varies slightly by medical plan. For the HMO and PPO plans, 43% participation is assumed, with an assumption of 25% electing spouse coverage in the HMO plan and 35%electingspousecoverageinthePPOplan.Members whoelected no coverage as active members are assumed to elect coverage in the same proportion as active members with coverage. The demographic assumptions that determined the total OPEB liability as of June 30, 2022, were based on certain results of an actuarial experiencestudyof theFRSfor theperiodJuly1,2014-June 30, 2019. •Valuation date = July 1, 2022 •Measurement date = June 30, 2022 •Actuarial value of assets = N/A (no plan assets) •Inflation = 2.60% •Payroll growth = varies by FRS class •Medical aging factors o 4% per year prior to age 65; o 3% per year between ages 65 and 75; o 2% per year between ages 75 and 85; o 0% per year thereafter. •Mortality (details in valuation report) o Pub-2010 with fully generational improvement using Scale MP-2018 •Actuarial cost method = Entry Age Normal •Marital status = 80% assumed married (male spouses 3 yrs older than female spouses) Estimates are based on information available at the time of the estimates. Such estimates are subject to revision as additional information becomes available. Also, estimates are subject to risks and uncertainties which may cause results to differ materially from those estimates set forth above. No assurance is given that actual results will not differ materially from the estimates provided above.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT The Trustees of the State Board of Administration of Florida Florida Hurricane Catastrophe Fund: Report on the Audit of the Combined Financial Statements Opinions We have audited the combined financial statements of the Florida Hurricane Catastrophe Fund of the State of Florida (the Fund), a proprietary fund of the State of Florida, as of and for the years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, and the related notes to the combined financial statements, which collectively comprise the Fund’s basic financial statements as listed in the table of contents. In our opinion, the accompanying combined financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Fund, as of June 30, 2023 and 2022, and the change in financial position and its cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Basis for Opinions We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAS) and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards,issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Combined Financial Statements section of our report. We are required to be independent of the Fund, and to meet our other ethical responsibilities, in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements relating to our audits. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion. Emphasis of Matter As discussed in Note 1, the combined financial statements of the Fund are intended to present the financial position, changes in financial position, and cash flows of the Fund. They do not purport to, and do not, present fairly the financial position of the State of Florida as of June 30, 2023 and 2022, the changes in its financial position, or, where applicable, its cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter. (Continued) 2. Responsibilities of Management for the Combined Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the combined financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and for the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of combined financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the combined financial statements, management is required to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Fund’s ability to continue as a going concern for twelve months beyond the combined financial statement date, including any currently known information that may raise substantial doubt shortly thereafter. Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Combined Financial Statements Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the combined financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and therefore is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with GAAS and Government Auditing Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Misstatements are considered material if there is a substantial likelihood that, individually or in the aggregate, they would influence the judgment made by a reasonable user based on the combined financial statements. In performing an audit in accordance with GAAS and Government Auditing Standards, we Exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the combined financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, and design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the combined financial statements. Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit 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 Fund’s internal control. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed. Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluate the overall presentation of the combined financial statements. Conclude whether, in our judgment, there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Fund’s ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time. We are required to communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit, significant audit findings, and certain internal control-related matters that we identified during the audit. 3. Required Supplementary Information Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that management’s discussion and analysis, schedule of Fund’s proportionate share of the net pension liability and related ratios, schedule of fund contributions, and schedule of Fund’s proportionate share of the total other postemployment benefits liability on pages 4-12, 63-64, 65 and 66, respectively, be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such information is the responsibility of management and, although not a part of the basic financial statements, is required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board who considers it to be an essential part of financial reporting for placing the basic financial statements in an appropriate operational, economic, or historical context. We have applied certain limited procedures to the required supplementary information in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which consisted of inquiries of management about the methods of preparing the information and comparing the information for consistency with management's responses to our inquiries, the basic financial statements, and other knowledge we obtained during our audit of the basic financial statements. We do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on the information because the limited procedures do not provide us with sufficient evidence to express an opinion or provide any assurance. Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards In accordance with Government Auditing Standards,we have also issued our report dated November 1, 2023 on our consideration of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting and on our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements and other matters. The purpose of that report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over financial reporting and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting or on compliance. That report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting and compliance. Crowe LLP Tampa, Florida November 1, 2023 Management’s Discussion and Analysis Financial Analysis Net Position Invested Assets Florida Hurricane Catastrophe Fund -Fiscal Years Ended June 30,2023 and 2022 8 o o Due to the large estimated loss for Hurricane Ian,the Fund experienced a significant decrease to its net position when compared to the prior fiscal year.Even with the decrease in the Fund’s net position,the Fund expects to timely reimburse all participants for covered losses from Hurricane Ian. $9mUltan 0,1* FHCFLiquidity Account Mof 6/30/2023 FHCFChlmi PayingAccount *5 of6/30/2023 * 22 $990million 4.2H $465million 5.0% M-Mkt CCE The largest assets on the Fund’s combined financial statements are the investments,which include accumulated annual premium revenues and 2020A bond proceeds.Considering the significance of Hurricane Ian losses and the need for short-term liquidity,the Fund modified its investment strategy to ensure funds are readily available to provide reimbursements to insurers. The Fund’s investment portfolio is managed by the State Board of Administration of Florida (SBA)with Investment Policy Guidelines (Guidelines)that focus primarily on liquidity,then safety of principal,and finally on competitive returns.This conservative investment policy provides for a high level of liquidity to match insurer loss reimbursement needs on a timely basis.The Fund’s total $15.1 billion portfolio is comprised of Cash and Cash Equivalents, Money Market Funds,U.S.Treasury and Agency securities (73%)and corporate securities (27%).

Corp Govt M Mkt CCE The Fund’s net position decreased by $8.2 billion or 75%,during fiscal year 2023.This was primarily a result of Hurricane Ian,a Category 4 hurricane,that made landfall in southwest Florida on September 28,2022.At June 30,2023,the Fund was reimbursing participating insurers for losses from Hurricanes Irma,Michael and Ian. Management’s Discussion and Analysis Financial Analysis (continued) Long-term Liabilities 1 Operating Revenues Florida Hurricane Catastrophe Fund -Fiscal Years Ended June 30,2023 and 2022 10 In September 2020,the Corporation issued Series 2020A pre-event bonds in the amount of $3.5 billion to enhance the available liquidity for the Fund and to provide an additional source of liquidity,if needed,to reimburse participating insurers.If a hurricane occurs,the Fund could choose to either use these bond proceeds in the current year while it plans for a post-event debt issuance,or continue to hold the bond proceeds to provide for future season capacity.The maturity schedule of the 2020A Bonds is in the table below: Payment Dates July 1,2025 July 1,2027 July 1,2030 Interest Rate 1.26% 1.71%) 2.15%> The 2020A Pre-Event Taxable Bonds had the following credit ratings:Moody’s Aa3;Standard and Poor’s AA;and Fitch AA. The Fund’s total operating revenues primarily consist of premiums received annually from participating insurers,which totaled approximately $1.4 billion for fiscal year 2023.The net premium revenue for the current fiscal year increased when compared to the prior fiscal year by approximately 16%.Net premium revenue has been increasing annually for the Fund due primarily to insurers choosing the higher coverage level of 90%since 2019.Fiscal year 2023 premium increases are also a result of significant increases in exposure growth.Exposure growth is due to various macro and micro economic factors in Florida which could include population growth,home value increases,and new home builds,but the most significant factor during fiscal year 2023 was inflation.This surge in exposure,coupled with more participating insurers selecting the 90%coverage option,increased the volume and growth in the Fund’s premium revenue.The number of insurers selecting a higher percentage is reflected in the following FHCF Historical Coverage Selections chart: 2020A Pre-Event Taxable Bonds1 Payments Required $1,250,000,000 $1,000,000,000 $1,250,000,000 Investments pledged as collateral for the Fund’s outstanding debt at June 30,2023 were $3.48 billion.There is no concern about the Fund’s ability to repay the bonds or make scheduled debt service payments as the Fund’s outstanding debt is secured with pledged collateral that includes 1)annual reimbursement premium and investment earnings thereon after providing for the current expenses of the Fund;2)investment earnings on bond proceeds;and 3)emergency assessments,if any,and the earnings thereon.

On September 16,2020,the Corporation issued $3.5 billion of pre-event Series 2020A Revenue Bonds to enhance the liquidity of the Fund and to maximize the ability of the Fund to meet future obligations.The proceeds from these bonds may be used to pay for losses incurred from future covered events.Investment earnings on these funds,as well as reimbursement premiums,if necessary,are used to pay the debt service requirements of these bonds.The Series 2020A Revenue Bonds have maturities of $1.25 billion on July 1,2025,$1.0 billion on July 1,2027, and $1.25 billion on July 1,2030 bearing interest rates of 1.258%,1.705%,and 2.154%, respectively.Interest payments are due each January 1 and July 1 and interest expense for fiscal years ending June 30,2023 and 2022,was $59.7 million and $59.7 million,respectively. The Corporation’s outstanding revenue bonds payable contain a provision that,in an event of default,the Master Trustee may,and upon written request of the holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding parity obligations shall,declare the principal of all outstanding parity obligations to be due and payable immediately (the Master Trustee shall rescind acceleration once the Corporation cures a payment default). 59,700 59,700 59,700 43,975 43,975 26,925 26,925 26,925 59,700 59,700 59,700 59,700 43,975 43,975 26,925 26,925 26,925 2022 2023 2024 2025 2026 2027 2028 2029 2030 2031 Total These bonds are parity obligations and were secured under the same Master Trust Indenture as previous pre-event bond issues.They are solely obligations of the Corporation and neither the credit,the revenues nor the taxing power of the State of Florida is pledged to the payment of the bonds.As of June 30,2023 and 2022,assets having a value of $3.48 billion and $3.43 billion, respectively,were pledged as collateral for the Series 2020A Bonds.The market value of the pledged assets is less than the par value at June 30,2023 and 2022 due to market volatility; however,this does not create an event of default.

The benefits provided are the same as those provided for active employees.Spouses and dependents of eligible retirees are also eligible for medical coverage.All non-OPS employees of the Fund are eligible to receive postemployment health care benefits.Four types of health plans are offered to eligible participants: HMO coverage is available only to those retirees who live or work in the HMO’s service area. The four PPO and HMO options are considered managed-care plans and have specific provider networks. At valuation date July 1,2022,there were 183,991 employees covered by the OPEB Plan,as shown in the following table: 127,265 22,773 33,953 183,991 There are currently zero inactive plan members entitled to but not yet receiving benefits because the OPEB plan did not provide a vested termination benefit prior to July 1,2022.However,in subsequent years,there may be plan members included in this category.House Bill 5009 was passed in the 2022 legislative session and establishes the right of any current state employee who terminates employment after July 1,2022 with at least six years of credited service to participate in the State Group Insurance plan indefinitely after termination.Participants must elect to participate within two years of termination.This change goes into effect after the June 30,2022 measurement date and the resulting change in benefits will be accounted for in future valuations of the Plan.

For this purpose,the Plan recognizes benefit payments when due and payable in accordance with the benefit terms. Retirees participating in the group insurance plans offered by the State are required to contribute 100%of the premiums.The State implicitly subsidizes the healthcare premium rates paid by the retirees by allowing them to participate in the same health plan offered to active employees. Retirees under age 65 pay the same premium amounts as applicable to active employees. Retirees over age 65 are included in the overall risk pool but pay a lesser premium amount than is applicable to active employees because Medicare is the primary payer.Retirees are required to enroll in the Federal Medicare (Medicare)program for their primary coverage as soon as they are eligible.

The net result was a slight increase in the liability.The medical trend assumption was based on the Getzen Model,along with information from the August 2022 Report on Financial Outlook of the Plan.The impact of the trend rate changes is a small increase in the liability,due primarily to higher trend rates in the first several years. For fiscal year ended June 30,2022,retirement rates were updated to those used in the FRS Actuarial Valuation conducted by Milliaman as ofJuly 1,2019,from the previously used rates from July 1,2015.This decreased the total OPEB liability by about 7%.Active medical plan election participation rate assumptions changed from 50%to 43%,resulting in a decrease in total OPEB liability of about 8%. For fiscal year ended June 30,2021,the excise tax that was to go into effect in 2022 was repealed.The impact ofthis change was a decrease in liabilities of about 13%. For the fiscal year ended June 30,2020,the OPEB valuation conducted as of July 1,2019,reflected the full impact of the Excise Tax that was to go into effect in 2022.The impact of this change was an increase in liabilities of about 12%.Mortality rates were changed to use Pub-2010 mortality tables with fully generational improvement using Scale MP-2018.Mortality rates were previously based on FP-2000 mortality tables with fully generational improvement using Scale BB.This change decreased liabilities by about 5%. *This schedule is intended to present information for 10 years.However,until a full 10-year trend is compiled, the Fund is presenting information for those years for which information is available.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING AND ON COMPLIANCE AND OTHER MATTERS BASED ON AN AUDIT OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PERFORMED IN ACCORDANCE WITH GOVERNMENT AUDITING STANDARDS The Trustees of the State Board of Administration of Florida Florida Hurricane Catastrophe Fund We have audited, in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards issued by the Comptroller General of the United States, the combined financial statements of the Florida Hurricane Catastrophe Fund (the Fund), as of and for the year ended June 30, 2023, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the Fund’s basic financial statements, and have issued our report thereon dated November 1, 2023. Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting In planning and performing our audit of the combined financial statements, we considered the Fund's internal control over financial reporting (internal control) as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances for the purpose of expressing our opinion on the financial statements, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund’s internal control. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund’s internal control. A deficiency in internal control exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent, or detect and correct, misstatements on a timely basis. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the entity’s financial statements will not be prevented 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 severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged with governance. Our consideration of internal control was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph of this section and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control that might be material weaknesses or significant deficiencies. Given these limitations, during our audit we did not identify any deficiencies in internal control that we consider to be material weaknesses. However, material weaknesses or significant deficiencies may exist that have not been identified. Report on Compliance and Other Matters As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the Fund's combined financial statements are free from material misstatement, we performed tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements, noncompliance with which could have a direct and material effect on the financial statements. However, providing an opinion on compliance with those provisions 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 matters that are required to be reported under Government Auditing Standards. 68. Purpose of this Report The purpose of this report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control or on compliance. This report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the entity’s internal control and compliance. Accordingly, this communication is not suitable for any other purpose.

(2) The Corporation may make payment of any Defaulted Interest on the Series 2024A Bonds in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which such Bonds may be listed and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, if, after notice given by the C-3-5 8 Corporation to the Master Trustee of the proposed payment pursuant to this subparagraph, such payment shall be deemed practicable by the Master Trustee. Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 203, each Series 2024A Bond delivered under this Supplement No. 9 upon registration of, transfer of, in exchange for, or in lieu of any other Series 2024A Bond shall carry all the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, which were carried by such other Series 2024A Bond and each such Bond shall bear interest from such date, so that neither gain nor loss in interest shall result from such transfer, exchange or substitution.

In case any officer whose signature or a facsimile of whose signature appears on any Series 2024A Bonds ceases to be such officer before the delivery of such Bonds, such signature or such facsimile nevertheless shall be valid and sufficient for all purposes the same as if such officer had remained in office until such delivery, and any Series 2024A Bond may bear the facsimile signature of, or may be signed by, such persons as at the actual time of the execution of such Bond are the proper officers to execute such Bond although at the date of such Bond such persons may not have been such officers. (b) The definitive Series 2024A Bonds are issuable as permitted or required by this Supplement No. 9.

The "Make-Whole Redemption Price" is the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of the Series 2024A Bonds to be redeemed; or (ii) the sum of the present value of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest to the maturity date of the Series 2024A Bonds to be redeemed, not including any interest accrued and unpaid as of the date on which the Series 2024A Bonds are to be redeemed, discounted to the date on which the Series 2024A Bonds are to be redeemed on a semiannual basis, assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months, at the Treasury Rate (as defined below) plus fifteen (15) basis points; plus accrued and unpaid interest on the Series 2024A Bonds to be redeemed to the redemption date. The "Treasury Rate" is, as of any redemption date,(i) the time-weighted interpolated average yield to maturity, assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months, for a term equal to the Make Whole Period of the yields of the two U.S. Treasury nominal securities at "constant maturity" (as compiled and published in the Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15 that is publicly available not less than two (2) Business Days nor more than 45 calendar days prior to the redemption date (excluding inflation indexed securities) (or, if such Statistical Release is no longer published, any publicly available source of similar market data reasonably selected by the Corporation most nearly equal to the period from the redemption date to the maturity date of such Series 2024A Bonds) maturing immediately preceding and succeeding the Make Whole Period or (ii) if the period from the redemption date to such maturity date is less than one year, the weekly average yield on actually traded U.S. Treasury Securities adjusted to a constant maturity of one year. The Treasury Rate will be determined by the Corporation, and the Make-Whole Redemption Price shall be calculated by the Corporation and provided in writing to the Trustee. (b) The Series 2024A Bonds are subject to optional redemption in whole or in part, on or after January 1, 2034, at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Series 2024A Bonds to be redeemed, plus accrued interest to the redemption date. SECTION 302. NOTICE OF REDEMPTION. When redemption of Series 2024A Bonds is authorized pursuant to the provisions hereof, the Trustee shall give to the Owners of Series 2024A Bonds to be redeemed notice, at the expense of the Corporation, of the redemption of the Series 2024A Bonds. Notice of such redemption of the Series 2024A Bonds shall be given by mail, postage prepaid, not more than thirty (30) days or fewer than fifteen (15) days prior to said date of redemption, to the Owners of any Series 2024A Bonds to be redeemed. Such notice shall state: (i) the CUSIP numbers of all Series 15 2024A Bonds being redeemed, (ii) the original issue date of such Series 2024A Bonds, (iii) the maturity date and rate of interest borne by each Series 2024A Bond being redeemed, (iv) the redemption date, (v) the date on which such notice is mailed, (vi) if less than all Outstanding Series 2024A Bonds are to be redeemed, the bond number (and, in the case of a partial redemption of any Series 2024A Bond, the principal amount) of each Series 2024A Bond to be redeemed, (vii) that on such redemption date there shall become due and payable upon each Series 2024A Bond to be redeemed the Redemption Price or Make-Whole Redemption Price thereof, as applicable, or the Redemption Price or Make- Whole Redemption Price, as applicable, of the specified portions of the principal thereof in the case of Series 2024A Bonds to be redeemed in part only, together with interest accrued thereon to the redemption date, and that from and after such date interest thereon shall cease to accrue and be payable, and (viii) that the Series 2024A Bonds to be redeemed, whether as a whole or in part, are to be surrendered for payment at the designated corporate trust office of the Trustee at an address specified. Any such notice may be a conditional notice. In the event the conditions stated in such a notice have not been satisfied on the proposed redemption date, such redemption shall not occur and such notice shall be of no further force or effect. Such mailing shall not be a condition precedent to such redemption, and failure to mail any such notice, or any defect in such notice as mailed, shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of the Series 2024A Bonds for which proper notice was given. In the case of redemption of the Series 2024A Bonds, the Corporation will select the Series 2024A Bonds to be redeemed. If the Series 2024A Bonds are not registered in book-entry only form, any redemption of less than all of the Series 2024A Bonds shall be effected by the Bond Registrar among owners on a pro-rata basis subject to minimum authorized denominations. The particular Series 2024A Bonds to be redeemed shall be determined by the Bond Registrar, using such method as it shall deem fair and appropriate. If the Series 2024A Bonds are registered in book-entry only form and so long as DTC is the sole registered owner of the Series 2024A Bonds, if less than all of the Series 2024A Bonds are called for prior redemption, the particular Series 2024A Bonds or portions thereof to be redeemed shall be selected on a "Pro Rata Pass-Through Distribution of Principal" basis in accordance with DTC procedures; provided that, so long as the Series 2024A Bonds are held in book-entry form, the selection for redemption of such Series 2024A Bonds shall be made in accordance with the operational arrangements of DTC then in effect that currently provide for adjustment of the principal by a factor provided by the Bond Registrar pursuant to DTC operational arrangements. If the Bond Registrar does not provide the necessary information and identify the redemption as on a Pro Rata Pass- Through Distribution of Principal basis, the Series 2024A Bonds will be selected for redemption in accordance with DTC procedures by lot. It is the Corporation's intent that redemption allocations made by DTC, the DTC Participants or such other intermediaries that may exist between the Corporation and the Beneficial Owners be made on a "Pro Rata Pass-Through Distribution of Principal" basis as described above. However, the Corporation can provide no assurance that DTC, the DTC Participants or any other C-3-9 16 intermediaries will allocate redemptions among Beneficial Owners on such basis. If the DTC operational arrangements do not allow for the redemption of the Series 2024A Bonds on a Pro Rata Pass-Through Distribution of Principal basis as discussed above, then the Series 2024A Bonds will be selected for redemption in accordance with DTC procedures by lot. 17 ARTICLE IV ESTABLISHMENT OF ACCOUNTS AND SUBACCOUNTS, APPLICATION OF NET RECEIPTS AND INVESTMENT OF FUNDS SECTION 401.

The Master Trustee shall not be liable or responsible for any loss resulting from any such investment. (f) Whenever a transfer of money between two or more of the subaccounts is permitted or required, such transfer may be made as a whole or value determined at the time of such transfer in accordance with Article VI of the Master Indenture; provided that 19 the Investment Obligations transferred are those in which money of the receiving subaccount could be invested at the date of such transfer.

The information in this APPENDIX D concerning the Clearing Systems has been obtained from sources believed to be reliable, but the Corporation does not take any responsibility for the accuracy, completeness or adequacy of the information in this APPENDIX D. Investors wishing to use the facilities of any of the Clearing Systems are advised to confirm the continued applicability of the rules, regulations and procedures of the relevant Clearing System. The Corporation will not have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to, or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests in the Bonds held through the facilities of any Clearing System or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests. So long as Cede & Co. is the registered owner of the Bonds, as nominee for DTC, references herein and in the Trust Agreement to the Bondholders, registered owners or owners (or similar terms) of the Bonds shall mean Cede & Co., as aforesaid, and shall not mean the beneficial owners of the Bonds. DTC Book-Entry-Only System DTC will act as securities depository for the Bonds. The Bonds will be issued as fully-registered securities and registered in the name of Cede & Co. (DTC’s partnership nominee) or such other name as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. One fully-registered Bond will be issued in the aggregate principal amount of such maturity (provided that if the aggregate principal amount of any single maturity exceeds $500,000,000, separate bond certificates shall be issued for each $500,000,000 and any amount in excess thereof and subject to any DTC restrictions on the maximum principal amount of a bond certificate), and will be deposited with DTC. DTC, the world’s largest securities depository, is a limited-purpose trust company organized under the New York Banking Law, a "banking organization" within the meaning of the New York Banking Law, a member of the Federal Reserve System, a "clearing corporation" within the meaning of the New York Uniform Commercial Code, and a "clearing agency" registered pursuant to the provisions of Section 17A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. DTC holds and provides asset servicing for over 3.5 million issues of U.S. and non-U.S. equity issues, corporate and municipal debt issues, and money market instruments (from over 100 countries) that DTC’s participants ("Direct Participants") deposit with DTC. DTC also facilitates the post-trade settlement among Direct Participants of sales and other securities transactions in deposited securities, through electronic computerized book-entry transfers and pledges between Direct Participants’ accounts. This eliminates the need for physical movement of securities certificates. Direct Participants include both U.S. and non-U.S. securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, clearing corporations, and certain other organizations. DTC is a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation ("DTCC"). DTCC is the holding company for DTC, National Securities Clearing Corporation and Fixed Income Clearing Corporation, all of which are registered clearing agencies. DTCC is owned by the users of its regulated subsidiaries. Access to the DTC system is also available to others such as both U.S. and non-U.S. securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, and clearing corporations that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a Direct Participant, either directly or indirectly ("Indirect Participants"). DTC has a Standard & Poor’s rating of AA+. The DTC Rules applicable to its D-2 Participants are on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission. More information about DTC can be found at www.dtcc.com. Purchases of the Bonds under the DTC system must be made by or through Direct Participants, which will receive a credit for the Bonds on DTC’s records. The ownership interest of each actual purchaser of each Bond ("Beneficial Owner") is in turn to be recorded on the Direct and Indirect Participants’ records. Beneficial Owners will not receive written confirmation from DTC of their purchase. Beneficial Owners are, however, expected to receive written confirmations providing details of the transaction, as well as periodic statements of their holdings, from the Direct or Indirect Participant through which the Beneficial Owner entered into the transaction. Transfers of ownership interests in the Bonds are to be accomplished by entries made on the books of Direct and Indirect Participants acting on behalf of Beneficial Owners. Beneficial Owners will not receive certificates representing their ownership interest in the Bonds, except in the event that use of the book-entry system for the Bonds is discontinued. To facilitate subsequent transfers, all Bonds deposited by Direct Participants with DTC are registered in the name of DTC’s partnership nominee, Cede & Co., or such other name as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. The deposit of Bonds with DTC and their registration in the name of Cede & Co. or such other DTC nominee do not affect any change in beneficial ownership. DTC has no knowledge of the actual Beneficial Owners of the Bonds; DTC’s records reflect only the identity of the Direct Participants to whose accounts such Bonds are credited, which may or may not be the Beneficial Owners. The Direct and Indirect Participants will remain responsible for keeping account of their holdings on behalf of their customers. Conveyance of notices and other communications by DTC to Direct Participants, by Direct Participants to Indirect Participants, and by Direct Participants and Indirect Participants to Beneficial Owners will be governed by arrangements among them, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time to time. Beneficial Owners of the Bonds may wish to take certain steps to augment the transmission to them of notices of significant events with respect to the Bonds, such as redemptions, tenders, defaults, and proposed amendments to the security documents. For example, Beneficial Owners of Bonds may wish to ascertain that the nominee holding the Bonds for their benefit has agreed to obtain and transmit notices to Beneficial Owners. In the alternative, Beneficial Owners may wish to provide their names and addresses to the registrar and request that copies of the notices be provided directly to them. Redemption notices shall be sent to DTC. If less than all of the Bonds within a maturity are being redeemed, DTC’s practice is to determine by lot the amount of the interest of each Direct Participant in such maturity to be redeemed. Neither DTC nor Cede & Co. (nor any other DTC nominee) will consent or vote with respect to the Bonds unless authorized by a Direct Participant in accordance with DTC’s Procedures. Under its usual procedures, DTC mails an Omnibus Proxy to the Corporation 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 the Bonds are credited on the record date (identified in a listing attached to the Omnibus Proxy). Principal and interest payments on the Bonds will be made to Cede & Co., or such other nominee as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. DTC’s practice is to credit Direct Participant’s accounts upon DTC’s receipt of funds and corresponding detail information from the Corporation or Master Trustee, on the payable date in accordance with their respective holdings shown on DTC’s records. D-3 Payments by Participants to Beneficial Owners will be governed by standing instructions and customary practices, as is the case with securities held for the accounts of customers in bearer form or registered in "street name," and will be the responsibility of such Participant and not of DTC, the Master Trustee, or the Corporation, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time to time. Payment of principal and interest to Cede & Co. (or such other nominee as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC) is the responsibility of the Master Trustee, disbursement of such payments to Direct Participants will be the responsibility of DTC, and disbursement of such payments to the Beneficial Owners will be the responsibility of Direct and Indirect Participants. DTC may discontinue providing its services as depository with respect to the Bonds at any time by giving reasonable notice to the Corporation or the Master Trustee. Under such circumstances, in the event that a successor securities depository is not obtained, Bond certificates are required to be printed and delivered. The Corporation may decide to discontinue use of the system of book-entry transfers through DTC (or a successor securities depository). In that event, Bond certificates will be printed and delivered. NEITHER THE CORPORATION NOR THE MASTER TRUSTEE WILL HAVE ANY RESPONSIBILITY OR OBLIGATION TO DTC PARTICIPANTS, INDIRECT PARTICIPANTS OR THE PERSONS FOR WHICH THEY ACT AS NOMINEES WITH RESPECT TO THE BONDS, OR FOR ANY PRINCIPAL OF OR INTEREST PAYMENT THEREON. The Corporation and the Master Trustee may treat DTC (or its nominee) as the sole and exclusive registered owner of the Bonds registered in its name for the purposes of payment of the principal of, or interest on, the Bonds, giving any notice permitted or required to be given to registered owners under the Trust Agreement, registering the transfer of the Bonds, or other action to be taken by registered owners and for all other purposes whatsoever. The Corporation and the Master Trustee shall not have any responsibility or obligation to any Direct or Indirect Participant, any person claiming a beneficial ownership interest in the Bonds under or through DTC or any Direct or Indirect Participant, or any other person which is not shown on the registration books of the Corporation (kept by the Master Trustee) as being a registered owner, with respect to the accuracy of any records maintained by DTC or any Direct or Indirect Participant; the payment by DTC or any Direct or Indirect Participant of any amount in respect of the principal of or interest on the Bonds; any notice which is permitted or required to be given to registered owners thereunder or under the conditions to transfers or exchanges adopted by the Corporation; or other action taken by DTC as registered owner. Global Clearance Procedures Beneficial interests in the 2024A Bonds may be held through DTC, Clearstream Banking, S.A. ("Clearstream") or Euroclear Bank SA/NV ("Euroclear") as operator of the Euroclear System, directly as a participant or indirectly through organizations that are participants in such system. Euroclear and Clearstream. Euroclear and Clearstream each hold securities for their customers and facilitate the clearance and settlement of securities transactions by electronic book-entry transfer between their respective account holders. Euroclear and Clearstream provide various services including safekeeping, administration, clearance and settlement of internationally traded securities and securities lending and borrowing. Euroclear and Clearstream also deal with domestic securities markets in several countries through established depositary and custodial relationships. Euroclear and Clearstream have D-4 established an electronic bridge between their two systems across which their respective participants may settle trades with each other. Euroclear and Clearstream customers are worldwide financial institutions, including underwriters, securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies and clearing corporations. Indirect access to Euroclear and Clearstream is available to other institutions that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with an account holder of either system, either directly or indirectly. Clearing and Settlement Procedures. The 2024A Bonds sold in offshore transactions will be initially issued to investors through the book-entry facilities of DTC, or Clearstream and Euroclear in Europe if the investors are participants in those systems, or indirectly through organizations that are participants in the systems. For any of such 2024A Bonds, the record holder will be DTC’s nominee. Clearstream and Euroclear will hold omnibus positions on behalf of their participants through customers’ securities accounts in Clearstream’s and Euroclear’s names on the books of their respective depositories. The depositories, in turn, will hold positions in customers’ securities accounts in the depositories’ names on the books of DTC. Because of time zone differences, the securities account of a Clearstream or Euroclear participant as a result of a transaction with a participant, other than a depository holding on behalf of Clearstream or Euroclear, will be credited during the securities settlement processing day, which must be a business day for Clearstream or Euroclear, as the case may be, immediately following the DTC settlement date. These credits or any transactions in the securities settled during the processing will be reported to the relevant Euroclear participant or Clearstream participant on that business day. Cash received in Clearstream or Euroclear as a result of sales of securities by or through a Clearstream participant or Euroclear participant to a DTC Participant, other than the depository for Clearstream or Euroclear, will be received with value on the DTC settlement date but will be available in the relevant Clearstream or Euroclear cash account only as of the business day following settlement in DTC. Transfer Procedures. Transfers between participants will occur in accordance with DTC rules. Transfers between Clearstream participants or Euroclear participants will occur in accordance with their respective rules and operating procedures. Cross-market transfers between persons holding directly or indirectly through DTC, on the one hand, and directly or indirectly through Clearstream participants or Euroclear participants, on the other, will be effected by DTC in accordance with DTC rules on behalf of the relevant European international clearing system by the relevant depositories; however, cross-market transactions will require delivery of instructions to the relevant European international clearing system by the counterparty in the system in accordance with its rules and procedures and within its established deadlines in European time. The relevant European international clearing system will, if the transaction meets its settlement requirements, deliver instructions to its depository to take action to effect final settlement on its behalf by delivering or receiving securities in DTC, and making or receiving payment in accordance with normal procedures for same day funds settlement applicable to DTC. Clearstream participants or Euroclear participants may not deliver instructions directly to the depositories. The Corporation will not impose any fees in respect of holding the 2024A Bonds; however, holders of book-entry interests in the 2024A Bonds may incur fees normally payable in respect of the maintenance and operation of accounts in DTC, Euroclear and Clearstream. D-5 Initial Settlement. Interests in the 2024A Bonds will be in uncertified book-entry form. Purchasers electing to hold book-entry interests in the 2024A Bonds through Euroclear and Clearstream accounts will follow the settlement procedures applicable to conventional Eurobonds. Book-entry interests in the 2024A Bonds will be credited to Euroclear and Clearstream participants’ securities clearance accounts on the business day following the date of delivery of the 2024A Bonds against payment (value as on the date of delivery of the 2024A Bonds). DTC participants acting on behalf of purchasers electing to hold book-entry interests in the 2024A Bonds through DTC will follow the delivery practices applicable to securities eligible for DTC's Same Day Funds Settlement system. DTC participants’ securities accounts will be credited with book-entry interests in the 2024A Bonds following confirmation of receipt of payment to the Corporation on the date of delivery of the 2024A Bonds. Secondary Market Trading. Secondary market trades in the 2024A Bonds will be settled by transfer of title to book-entry interests in Euroclear, Clearstream or DTC, as the case may be. Title to such book- entry interests will pass by registration of the transfer within the records of Euroclear, Clearstream or DTC, as the case may be, in accordance with their respective procedures. Book-entry interests in the 2024A Bonds may be transferred within Euroclear and within Clearstream and between Euroclear and Clearstream in accordance with procedures established for these purposes by Euroclear and Clearstream. Book-entry interests in the 2024A Bonds may be transferred within DTC in accordance with procedures established for this purpose by DTC. Transfer of book-entry interests in the 2024A Bonds between Euroclear or Clearstream and DTC may be effected in accordance with procedures established for this purpose by Euroclear, Clearstream and DTC. Special Timing Considerations. Investors should be aware that investors will only be able to make and receive deliveries, payments and other communications involving the 2024A Bonds through Euroclear or Clearstream on days when those systems are open for business. In addition, because of time-zone differences, there may be complications with completing transactions involving Clearstream and/or Euroclear on the same business day as in the United States. U.S. investors who wish to transfer their interests in the 2024A Bonds, or to receive or make a payment or delivery of the 2024A Bonds, on a particular day, may find that the transactions will not be performed until the next business day in Luxembourg if Clearstream is used, or Brussels if Euroclear is used. Clearing Information. It is expected that the 2024A Bonds will be accepted for clearance through the facilities of Euroclear and Clearstream. The CUSIP numbers for the 2024A Bonds are set forth on the inside cover of the Official Statement. General. Neither Euroclear nor Clearstream is under any obligation to perform or continue to perform the procedures referred to above, and such procedures may be discontinued at any time. NEITHER THE CORPORATION NOR THE UNDERWRITERS WILL HAVE ANY RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE PERFORMANCE BY EUROCLEAR OR CLEARSTREAM OR THEIR RESPECTIVE DIRECT OR INDIRECT PARTICIPANTS OR ACCOUNT HOLDERS OF THEIR RESPECTIVE OBLIGATIONS UNDER THE RULES AND PROCEDURES GOVERNING THEIR OPERATIONS OR THE ARRANGEMENTS REFERRED TO ABOVE. [THIS PAGE INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK] APPENDIX E FORM OF APPROVING OPINION [THIS PAGE INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK] E-1 APPENDIX E FORM OF OPINION OF NABORS, GIBLIN & NICKERSON, P.A., WITH RESPECT TO THE 2024A BONDS Upon delivery of the 2024A Bonds in definitive form, Nabors, Giblin & Nickerson, P.A., Tampa, Florida, Bond Counsel, proposes to render its opinion with respect to such 2024A Bonds in substantially the following form: (Date of Delivery) State Board of Administration Finance Corporation Tallahassee, Florida State Board of Administration of Florida Tallahassee, Florida Ladies and Gentlemen: We have acted as Bond Counsel in connection with the issuance and sale by the State Board of Administration Finance Corporation (the "Corporation") of its $1,000,000,000 State Board of Administration Finance Corporation Revenue Bonds, Series 2024A (Taxable) (the "Series 2024A Bonds"). The Series 2024A Bonds are being issued pursuant to Section 215.555, Florida Statutes (the "Act"). The Series 2024A Bonds are being issued for the principal purpose of providing moneys to enable the Florida Hurricane Catastrophe Fund (the "FHCF"), a trust fund established by the Act, to maximize the ability of the FHCF to meet future obligations, specifically to provide funds to enable the FHCF to make reimbursement payments to participating insurers for reimbursable losses caused by any Covered Events occurring in the Contract Year ending May 31, 2025 or any subsequent Contract Year. In connection with the delivery of this opinion, we have examined the following: (i) the Act; (ii) the Master Trust Indenture, dated as of June 1, 2006, between the Corporation and Regions Bank, as successor to Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., as Master Trustee (the "Master Trustee"), as amended and supplemented (the "Master Trust Indenture"), in particular as supplemented by the Ninth Supplemental Indenture, dated as of May 1, 2024 (the "Ninth Supplemental Indenture"); (iii) the resolution of the Corporation adopted October 25, 2023 (the "Corporation Resolution"); (iv) the resolution of the State Board of Administration of Florida (the "SBA Resolution") adopted October 25, 2023; (v) the Pledge and Security Agreement, dated as of June 1, 2006, as amended (the "Pledge State Board of Administration (Date of Delivery) Finance Corporation State Board of Administration of Florida Page 2 E-2 Agreement"), among the Corporation, the FHCF and the Master Trustee; and (vi) such other documents, instruments, proceedings and opinions as we have deemed relevant in rendering this opinion. All terms used herein in capitalized form and not otherwise defined herein shall have the same meanings as ascribed to them under the Master Trust Indenture. As to questions of fact material to our opinion, we have relied upon representations of the Corporation and the State Board of Administration of Florida (the "SBA") contained in the Corporation Resolution, the SBA Resolution, the Master Trust Indenture, the Ninth Supplemental Indenture, the Pledge Agreement and in the certified proceedings and other certifications of appropriate officials of the Corporation and the SBA furnished to us, without undertaking to verify the same by independent investigation. Furthermore, we have assumed continuing compliance with the covenants and agreements contained in the Corporation Resolution, the SBA Resolution, the Master Trust Indenture, the Ninth Supplemental Indenture and the Pledge Agreement. We have not undertaken an independent audit, examination, investigation or inspection of the matters described or contained in any agreements, documents, certificates, representations and opinions relating to the Series 2024A Bonds, and have relied solely on the facts, estimates and circumstances described and set forth therein. In our examination of the foregoing, we have assumed the genuineness of signatures on all documents and instruments, the authenticity of documents submitted as originals and the conformity to originals of documents submitted as copies. Based upon the foregoing and in reliance upon the matters hereinafter referred to, under existing law, we are of the opinion that: 1. The Corporation is an instrumentality and public benefits corporation of the State, duly created and validly existing under and by virtue of the Act, with the power to enter into the Master Trust Indenture, the Ninth Supplemental Indenture and the Pledge Agreement and to issue the Series 2024A Bonds. 2. The FHCF is a trust fund established by the Act for bond covenants, indentures, or resolutions within the meaning of Article III, Section 19(f)(3) of the Florida Constitution. 3. The Corporation Resolution has been duly adopted by the Corporation pursuant to the Act, is valid and binding upon the Corporation and is enforceable in accordance with its terms. 4. The Corporation has duly authorized, executed and delivered the Master Trust Indenture and the Ninth Supplemental Indenture and each of the Master Trust State Board of Administration (Date of Delivery) Finance Corporation State Board of Administration of Florida Page 3 E-3 Indenture and the Ninth Supplemental Indenture constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Corporation enforceable against the Corporation in accordance with its terms. The Master Trust Indenture creates a valid pledge of, and lien on, the Net Receipts, subject only to the provisions of the Master Trust Indenture permitting the withdrawal, payment, use or setting apart thereof for the purposes and on the terms and conditions set forth in the Master Trust Indenture. 5. Each of the Corporation and the SBA has the right and lawful authority to enter into the Pledge Agreement, and the Pledge Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Corporation and the SBA and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of each of the Corporation and the SBA enforceable in accordance with its terms. By virtue of the Act, the Pledge Agreement creates a valid pledge of and security interest in the Pledged Collateral (as defined in the Pledge Agreement), subject only to the provisions of the Pledge Agreement permitting the withdrawal, payment, use or setting apart thereof for or to the purposes and on the terms and conditions set forth in the Pledge Agreement. 6. The Series 2024A Bonds have been duly authorized, executed and issued by the Corporation in accordance with the Act and the Constitution and laws of the State of Florida (the "State"), and in accordance with the Master Trust Indenture and the Pledge Agreement, and represent valid special obligations of the Corporation, enforceable in accordance with their terms and the terms of the Master Trust Indenture. The Series 2024A Bonds are payable from the Net Receipts derived from the Pledged Collateral received by the Corporation in accordance with the Pledge Agreement and do not constitute a debt or liability of the State or of any political subdivision thereof. None of the credit, revenues or taxing power of the State or of any political subdivision thereof is pledged to the payment of the Series 2024A Bonds. 7. Interest on the Series 2024A Bonds is not excludable from gross income of the holders thereof for federal income tax purposes. Except as stated in paragraph 7 above, we express no opinion regarding any other federal tax consequences relating to the ownership or disposition of, or accrual or receipt of interest on, the Series 2024A Bonds. 8. The Series 2024A Bonds and interest thereon are exempt from taxation by the State and any political subdivision thereof, including the income tax under Chapter 220, Florida Statutes. This exemption does not apply to any tax imposed by Chapter 220, State Board of Administration (Date of Delivery) Finance Corporation State Board of Administration of Florida Page 4 E-4 Florida Statutes, on interest, income or profits on debt obligations owned by corporations, other than the Corporation.

It is located on the west coast of Florida, approximately 200 miles northwest of Miami, 180 miles southwest of Jacksonville, and 20 miles northeast of St. Petersburg. The City currently occupies 113 square miles and, in 2023, had an estimated population of 403,364. The City is empowered to levy a property tax on real property located within its boundaries. It is empowered by State statute to extend its corporate limits by annexation, which occurs periodically when deemed appropriate by the City Council. City Government The City has operated under a strong mayor-council form of government since 1945 and pursuant to the current City Charter originally adopted in 1975. Legislative authority is vested in an elected City Council consisting of seven (7) members. The City Council is responsible, among other things, for passing ordinances, adopting the budget, appointing committees, and approving the hiring of department head nominees submitted by the Mayor. The Mayor is responsible for carrying out the policies and ordinances of the City Council, for overseeing the day-to-day operations of the City, for drafting the budget and submitting it to the City Council for approval, and for nominating department heads for hiring approval by the City Council. The Mayor and all seven (7) City Council members are elected every four years with a term limit of two (2) consecutive terms. The Mayor and three City Council members are elected at large, and four City Council members are elected from single-member districts within the City. However, the three City Council members who are chosen from one of the three at-large districts may choose to run in a single-member district, and the four City Council members who are elected from a single-member district may run in an at-large district. Ordinance No. 2023-3 provides "provided however, no person who has, or but for resignation, would have served as member of the City Council for a total of four consecutive, full terms shall be elected as a City Council member of the succeeding term." The Mayor, current members of the City Council and expiration of their current terms of office are as follows: Mayor and City Council Members Date Term Expires Jane Castor, Mayor April 30, 2027 Guido Maniscalco, Chairman April 30, 2027 Alan Clendenin, Chair Pro Tem April 30, 2027 Bill Carlson April 30, 2027 Gwendolyn Henderson April 30, 2027 Lynn Hurtak April 30, 2027 Charlie Miranda April 30, 2027 Luis Viera April 30, 2027 The City provides a full range of services, including police and fire protection; the construction of streets, and other infrastructure; including stormwater management improvements; recreation and park facilities, convention facilities, water, wastewater, solid waste, and parking operations. For more information, see "APPENDIX A – General Information Regarding the City of Tampa" and "APPENDIX B 3 – Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2023" attached to this Official Statement. The annual budget serves as the foundation for the City’s financial planning and control. All departments of the City are required to submit requests for appropriation to the Mayor. The Mayor uses these requests as the starting point for developing the proposed budget. The Mayor then presents this proposed budget to the City Council for review prior to August 15. The City Council is required to hold two public hearings on the proposed budget and to adopt a final budget no later than September 30, the close of the City’s Fiscal Year. The appropriated budget is adopted by the fund and department. Department heads may make transfers within a department; however, re-appropriation of funds between capital and operating accounts, and between departments, requires the approval of the City Council according to the City Charter. THE 2024 PROJECT The 2024 Project includes various water and wastewater capital improvements contained in the City’s current five year Capital Improvement Program ("CIP") as more particularly described in "APPENDIX C – Form of the Bond Resolution," "APPENDIX E – Financial Feasibility Report" attached hereto and "CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM" herein. DESCRIPTION OF THE 2024 BONDS General The 2024 Bonds will be issued as fully registered bonds and will be registered initially in the name of Cede & Co., as the nominee of The Depository Trust Company, New York, New York ("DTC"). Individual purchases of interests in the 2024 Bonds will be made in book-entry form only. Purchasers of 2024 Bonds ("Beneficial Owners") will not receive physical delivery of certificates. Transfers of ownership interests in the 2024 Bonds will be effected through a book-entry only system as described below. See "-- Book-Entry Only System" below. Interest on the 2024 Bonds will be paid by check or draft of U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, Orlando, Florida (the "Registrar" and "Paying Agent"), by mail. Principal of the 2024 Bonds and redemption premium, if any, will be payable upon presentation and surrender of the 2024 Bonds at the designated corporate trust office of the Paying Agent. While held in the DTC book-entry system, all such payments will be made to Cede & Co. as the registered Holder of the 2024 Bonds and payments to Beneficial Owners will be the responsibility of DTC and the DTC Participants in the manner and to the extent described below. See "--Book-Entry Only System" below. The 2024 Bonds will be dated the date of issuance and will be in authorized denominations of $5,000 or any integral multiple thereof. Interest on the 2024 Bonds is payable on April 1 and October 1 of each year, commencing April 1, 2025. The 2024 Bonds will mature in the amounts and on the dates set forth on the inside cover page hereof. Ownership interests may be acquired in book-entry form only. See "Book-Entry Only System" below. With respect to 2024 Bonds registered in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee of DTC, neither the City, nor the Paying Agent will have any responsibility or obligation to any DTC Participant or to any indirect DTC Participant. See "--Book-Entry Only System" below for the definition of "DTC Participant." 4 Redemption Provisions Optional Redemption of the 2024 Bonds The 2024 Bonds maturing on or prior to October 1, 2034, are not subject to optional redemption.

Failure to mail such notice to such depositories or services or the Holders of the 2024 Bonds to be redeemed, or any defect therein, shall not affect the proceedings for redemption of 2024 Bonds as to which no such failure or defect has occurred. Such notice shall also be mailed to the Insurer or Credit Bank, if any, of such redeemed 2024 Bonds. Failure of any Holder to receive any notice mailed as herein provided shall not affect the proceedings for redemption of such Holder's 2024 Bonds. Notice of optional redemption of 2024 Bonds shall only be sent if the City reasonably determines it shall have sufficient funds available to pay the Redemption Price of and interest on the 2024 Bonds called for redemption on the redemption date. The City may provide that a redemption may be contingent upon the occurrence of certain condition(s) and that if such condition(s) do not occur the notice of redemption will be rescinded, provided notice of rescission shall be mailed in the manner described above to all affected 2024 Bondholders as soon as practicable. So long as DTC or its nominee, Cede & Co., is the registered owner of the 2024 Bonds notice of redemption is only required to be delivered to DTC or its nominee. See "– Book-Entry Only System" below. Book-Entry Only System THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION CONCERNING THE DEPOSITORY TRUST COMPANY ("DTC") AND DTC'S BOOK-ENTRY ONLY SYSTEM HAS BEEN OBTAINED FROM SOURCES THAT THE CITY BELIEVES TO BE RELIABLE. THE CITY TAKES NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE ACCURACY THEREOF. 6 SO LONG AS CEDE & CO. IS THE REGISTERED OWNER OF THE 2024 BONDS, AS NOMINEE OF DTC, CERTAIN REFERENCES IN THIS OFFICIAL STATEMENT TO THE 2024 BONDHOLDERS OR REGISTERED OWNERS OF THE 2024 BONDS SHALL MEAN CEDE & CO. AND WILL NOT MEAN THE BENEFICIAL OWNERS OF THE 2024 BONDS. THE DESCRIPTION WHICH FOLLOWS OF THE PROCEDURES AND RECORD KEEPING WITH RESPECT TO BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP INTERESTS IN THE 2024 BONDS, PAYMENT OF INTEREST AND PRINCIPAL ON THE 2024 BONDS TO DIRECT PARTICIPANTS (AS HEREINAFTER DEFINED) OR BENEFICIAL OWNERS OF THE 2024 BONDS, CONFIRMATION AND TRANSFER OF BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP INTERESTS IN THE 2024 BONDS, AND OTHER RELATED TRANSACTIONS. BY AND BETWEEN DTC, THE DIRECT PARTICIPANTS AND BENEFICIAL OWNERS OF THE 2024 BONDS ARE BASED SOLELY ON INFORMATION FURNISHED BY DTC. ACCORDINGLY, THE CITY NEITHER MAKES NOR CAN MAKE ANY REPRESENTATIONS CONCERNING THESE MATTERS. DTC will act as securities depository for the 2024 Bonds. The 2024 Bonds will be issued as fully registered securities registered in the name of Cede & Co. (DTC's partnership nominee) or such other name as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. One fully-registered 2024 Bond certificate will be issued for each maturity of the 2024 Bonds as set forth in the inside cover of this Official Statement, in the aggregate principal amount thereof, and will be deposited with DTC. DTC, the world's largest securities depository, is a limited-purpose trust company organized under the New York Banking Law, a "banking organization" within the meaning of the New York Banking Law, a member of the Federal Reserve System, a "clearing corporation" within the meaning of the New York Uniform Commercial Code, and a "clearing agency" registered pursuant to the provisions of Section 17A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. DTC holds and provides asset servicing for over 3.5 million issues of U.S. and non-U.S. equity issues, corporate and municipal debt issues, and money market instruments from over 100 countries that DTC's participants ("Direct Participants") deposit with DTC. DTC also facilitates the post-trade settlement among Direct Participants of sales and other securities transactions in deposited securities, through electronic computerized book-entry transfers and pledges between Direct Participants' accounts. This eliminates the need for physical movement of securities certificates. Direct Participants include both U.S. and non-U.S. securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, clearing corporations, and certain other organizations. DTC is a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation ("DTCC"). DTCC is the holding company for DTC, National Securities Clearing Corporation and Fixed Income Clearing Corporation, all of which are registered clearing agencies. DTCC is owned by the users of its regulated subsidiaries. Access to the DTC system is also available to others such as both U.S. and non-U.S. securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, and clearing corporations that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a Direct Participant, either directly or indirectly ("Indirect Participants"). The Direct Participants and the Indirect Participants are collectively referred to herein as the "DTC Participants." DTC has an S&P Global Ratings ("S&P") rating of AA+. The DTC Rules applicable to its DTC Participants are on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). More information about DTC can be found at www.dtcc.com. Purchases of 2024 Bonds under the DTC system must be made by or through Direct Participants, which will receive a credit for the 2024 Bonds on DTC's records. The ownership interest of each actual purchaser of each 2024 Bond ("Beneficial Owner") is in turn to be recorded on the Direct and Indirect Participants' records. Beneficial Owners will not receive written confirmation from DTC of their 7 purchase. Beneficial Owners are, however, expected to receive written confirmations providing details of the transaction, as well as periodic statements of their holdings, from the Direct or Indirect Participant through which the Beneficial Owner entered into the transaction. Transfers of ownership interests in the 2024 Bonds are to be accomplished by entries made on the books of Direct and Indirect Participants acting on behalf of Beneficial Owners. Beneficial Owners will not receive certificates representing their ownership interests in the 2024 Bonds, except in the event that use of the book-entry system for the 2024 Bonds is discontinued. To facilitate subsequent transfers, all 2024 Bonds deposited by Direct Participants with DTC are registered in the name of DTC's partnership nominee, Cede & Co., or such other name as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. The deposit of the 2024 Bonds with DTC and their registration in the name of Cede & Co. or such other DTC nominee do not affect any change in beneficial ownership. DTC has no knowledge of the actual Beneficial Owners of the 2024 Bonds; DTC's records reflect only the identity of the Direct Participants to whose accounts such 2024 Bonds are credited, which may or may not be the Beneficial Owners. The Direct and Indirect Participants will remain responsible for keeping account of their holdings on behalf of their customers. Conveyance of notices and other communications by DTC to Direct Participants, by Direct Participants to Indirect Participants, and by Direct Participants and Indirect Participants to Beneficial Owners will be governed by arrangements among them, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time to time. Beneficial Owners of 2024 Bonds may wish to take certain steps to augment the transmission to them of notices of significant events with respect to the 2024 Bonds, such as redemptions, tenders, defaults, and proposed amendments to the security documents. For example, Beneficial Owners of 2024 Bonds may wish to ascertain that the nominee holding the 2024 Bonds for their benefit has agreed to obtain and transmit notices to Beneficial Owners. In the alternative, Beneficial Owners may wish to provide their names and addresses to the Registrar and request that copies of notices be provided directly to them. Redemption notices shall be sent to DTC. If less than all of the 2024 Bonds within a maturity are being redeemed, DTC's practice is to determine by lot the amount of the interest of each Direct Participant in such maturity to be redeemed. Neither DTC nor Cede & Co. (nor any other DTC nominee) will consent or vote with respect to the 2024 Bonds unless authorized by a Direct Participant in accordance with DTC's MMI Procedures. Under its usual procedures, DTC mails an Omnibus Proxy to the City as soon as possible after the record date. The Omnibus Proxy assigns Cede & Co.'s consenting or voting rights to those Direct Participants to whose accounts the 2024 Bonds are credited on the record date (identified in a listing attached to the Omnibus Proxy). Redemption proceeds and distributions on the 2024 Bonds will be made to Cede & Co., or such other nominee as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. DTC's practice is to credit Direct Participants' accounts upon DTC's receipt of funds and corresponding detail information from the City or the Paying Agent, on the payment date in accordance with their respective holdings shown on DTC's records. Payments by DTC Participants to Beneficial Owners will be governed by standing instructions and customary practices, as is the case with securities held for the accounts of customers in bearer form or registered in "street name," and will be the responsibility of such DTC Participant and not of DTC, the Paying Agent, or the City, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time to time. Payment of redemption proceeds and distributions to Cede & Co. (or such other 8 nominee as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC) is the responsibility of the City and/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. DTC may discontinue providing its services as depository with respect to the 2024 Bonds at any time by giving reasonable notice to the City or the Paying Agent. Under such circumstances, in the event that a successor depository is not obtained, the 2024 Bond certificates are required to be printed and delivered. The City may decide to discontinue use of the system of book-entry-only transfers through DTC (or a successor securities depository). In that event, 2024 Bond certificates will be printed and delivered to DTC. 2024 Bonds Mutilated, Destroyed, Stolen or Lost The following provisions shall only be applicable if DTC's book-entry only system of registration is discontinued. In case any 2024 Bond shall become mutilated, or be destroyed, stolen or lost, the City may, in its discretion, issue and deliver, and the Registrar shall authenticate, a new 2024 Bond of like tenor as the 2024 Bond so mutilated, destroyed, stolen or lost, in exchange and substitution for such mutilated 2024 Bond upon surrender and cancellation of such mutilated 2024 Bond or in lieu of and substitution for the 2024 Bond destroyed, stolen or lost, and upon the Holder furnishing the City and the Registrar proof of his ownership thereof and satisfactory indemnity and complying with such other reasonable regulations and conditions as the City or the Registrar may prescribe and paying such expenses as the City and the Registrar may incur. All 2024 Bonds so surrendered shall be cancelled by the Registrar. If any of the 2024 Bonds shall have matured or be about to mature, instead of issuing a substitute 2024 Bond, the City may pay the same or cause the 2024 Bond to be paid, upon being indemnified as aforesaid, and if such 2024 Bonds be lost, stolen or destroyed, without surrender thereof. Any such duplicate 2024 Bonds issued pursuant to the Bond Resolution shall constitute original, additional contractual obligations on the part of the City whether or not the lost, stolen or destroyed 2024 Bond be at any time found by anyone, and such duplicate 2024 Bond shall be entitled to equal and proportionate benefits and rights as to lien on the Pledged Funds to the same extent as all other 2024 Bonds issued pursuant to the Bond Resolution. Interchangeability, Negotiability and Transfer The following provisions shall only be applicable if DTC's book-entry only system of registration is discontinued. The 2024 Bonds, upon surrender thereof at the office of the Registrar with a written instrument of transfer satisfactory to the Registrar, duly executed by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, may, at the option of the Holder thereof, be exchanged for an equal aggregate principal amount of registered 2024 Bonds of the same maturity of any other authorized denominations. The 2024 Bonds issued under the Bond Resolution shall be and have all the qualities and incidents of negotiable instruments under the law merchant and the Uniform Commercial Code of the 9 State of Florida, subject to the provisions for registration and transfer contained in the Bond Resolution and in the 2024 Bonds. So long as any of the 2024 Bonds shall remain Outstanding, the City shall maintain and keep, at the office of the Registrar, books for the registration and transfer of the 2024 Bonds. Each 2024 Bond shall be transferable only upon the books of the City, at the office of the Registrar, under such reasonable regulations as the City may prescribe, by the Holder thereof in person or by his attorney duly authorized in writing upon surrender thereof together with a written instrument of transfer satisfactory to the Registrar duly executed and guaranteed by the Holder or his duly authorized attorney. Upon the transfer of any such 2024 Bond, the City shall issue, and cause to be authenticated, in the name of the transferee a new 2024 Bond or 2024 Bonds of the same aggregate principal amount and maturity as the surrendered 2024 Bond. The City, the Registrar and any Paying Agent or fiduciary of the City may deem and treat the Person in whose name any Outstanding 2024 Bond shall be registered upon the books of the City as the absolute owner of such 2024 Bond, whether such 2024 Bond shall be overdue or not, for the purpose of receiving payment of, or on account of, the principal or Redemption Price, if applicable, and interest on such 2024 Bond and for all other purposes, and all such payments so made to any such Holder or upon his order shall be valid and effectual to satisfy and discharge the liability upon such 2024 Bond to the extent of the sum or sums so paid and neither the City nor the Registrar nor any Paying Agent or other fiduciary of the City shall be affected by any notice to the contrary. The Registrar, in any case where it is not also the Paying Agent in respect to any Series of 2024 Bonds, forthwith (A) following the fifteenth day prior to an Interest Date for such Series; (B) following the fifteenth day next preceding the date of first mailing of notice of redemption of any 2024 Bonds; and (C) at any other time as reasonably requested by the Paying Agent of such Series, shall certify and furnish to such Paying Agent the names, addresses and holdings of 2024 Bondholders and any other relevant information reflected in the registration books. Any Paying Agent of any fully registered 2024 Bond shall effect payment of interest on such 2024 Bonds by mailing a check to the Holder entitled thereto or may, in lieu thereof, upon the request of such Holder, transmit such payment by bank wire transfer for the account of such Holder. In all cases in which the privilege of exchanging 2024 Bonds or transferring 2024 Bonds is exercised, the City shall execute and deliver 2024 Bonds and the Registrar shall authenticate such 2024 Bonds in accordance with the provisions of the Bond Resolution, as the case may be. Execution of 2024 Bonds by the Mayor and City Clerk for purposes of exchanging, replacing or transferring 2024 Bonds may occur at the time of the original delivery of the 2024 Bonds. All 2024 Bonds surrendered in any such exchanges or transfers shall be held by the Registrar in safekeeping until directed by the City to be cancelled by the Registrar. For every such exchange or transfer of 2024 Bonds, the City or the Registrar may make a charge sufficient to reimburse it for any tax, fee, expense or other governmental charge required to be paid with respect to such exchange or transfer. The City and the Registrar shall not be obligated to make any such exchange or transfer of 2024 Bonds during the 15 days next preceding an Interest Date on the 2024 Bonds, or, in the case of any proposed redemption of 2024 Bonds, then, for the 2024 Bonds subject to redemption, during the 15 days next preceding the date of the first mailing of notice of such redemption and continuing until such redemption date. 10 SECURITY FOR THE BONDS General The payment of the principal of or Redemption Price, if applicable, and interest on the Bonds shall be secured equally and ratably by a pledge of and lien upon the Pledged Funds; provided, however, a Series of Bonds may be further secured by a Credit Facility or Bond Insurance Policy in addition to the security provided in the Bond Resolution; and provided further that a Series of Bonds may be secured independently of any other Series of Bonds by the establishment of a separate subaccount in the Reserve Account for such Series of Bonds or by not being secured in any manner by the Reserve Account as provided in a Supplemental Resolution. The 2024 Bonds are not secured by any Credit Facility or Bond Insurance Policy or any amounts on deposit in the Reserve Account or in any separate reserve fund, reserve account or subaccount therein. For more information, see "SECURITY FOR THE BONDS - No Reserve Funding for 2024 Bonds" herein. Issuers of a Reserve Account Insurance Policy or Reserve Account Letter of Credit shall be secured in accordance with the provisions of the Bond Resolution. In addition, pursuant to the Bond Resolution, the City has irrevocably pledged and granted a lien upon the Pledged Funds to the payment of any Policy Costs in accordance with the provisions of the Bond Resolution; provided, however, such pledge and lien shall be junior and subordinate in all respects to the pledge of and lien upon such Pledged Funds granted by the Bond Resolution to the Bondholders. Except as otherwise provided by Supplemental Resolution, the obligation of the City to make Hedge Payments to a Counterparty pursuant to a Qualified Hedge Agreement shall be on parity with the Bonds as to lien on and pledge of the Pledged Funds in accordance with the terms of the Bond Resolution (any other payments related to a Qualified Hedge Agreement, including fees, penalties, termination payments and the obligation to collateralize, shall be Subordinated Indebtedness of the City). There are currently no Qualified Hedge Agreements, Credit Facilities, Bond Insurance Policies, Reserve Account Insurance Policies or Reserve Account Letters of Credit outstanding. "Pledged Funds" means (1) the Net Revenues, (2) the Connection Fees and (3) until applied in accordance with the provisions of the Bond Resolution, all moneys, including investments thereof, in the funds and accounts established under the Bond Resolution, except (A) as for the Rebate Fund, (B) to the extent moneys therein shall be required to pay the Operating Expenses of the System in accordance with the terms of the Bond Resolution, and (C) any moneys set aside in a particular subaccount of the Reserve Account if such moneys shall be pledged solely for the payment of a different Series of Bonds for which it was established in accordance with the provisions of the Bond Resolution. For more information, see "SECURITY FOR THE BONDS - No Reserve Funding for 2024 Bonds" herein. "Net Revenues" means Gross Revenues less Operating Expenses. "Gross Revenues" means all income and moneys received by the City from the rates, fees, rentals, charges and other income to be made and collected by the City for the use of the products, services and facilities to be provided by the System, or otherwise received by the City or accruing to the City in the management and operation of the System, calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applicable to public utility systems similar to the System, including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing: (1) moneys deposited from the Rate Stabilization Fund into the Revenue Fund in accordance with the terms of the Bond Resolution, provided any moneys transferred from the Rate Stabilization Fund into the Revenue Fund in an amount not to exceed the Rate Stabilization Amount within 120 days following the end of a Fiscal Year may be designated by the City as Gross Revenues of such prior Fiscal Year, (2) proceeds from use and occupancy insurance on the System, (3) Investment 11 Earnings, (4) Operating Government Grants, and (5) all water main contribution fees (excluding contributed capital assets) paid pursuant to Section 26.90 of the City's Code of Ordinances or any successor provision. "Gross Revenues" do not include: (A) Capital Government Grants, (B) proceeds of Bonds or other City debt, (C) moneys deposited to the Rate Stabilization Fund from the Utility Reserve Fund, including any moneys transferred from the Utility Reserve Fund to the Rate Stabilization Fund within 120 days following the end of a Fiscal Year which the City determines not to be Gross Revenues of such prior Fiscal Year, (D) Wastewater Connection Fees, (E) Water Connection Fees, (F) Special Assessments Proceeds, unless subsequently pledged by Supplemental Resolution, and (G) any gain resulting from the valuation of investment securities or Hedge Agreements at market value and any other gain that does not require or result in the receipt of cash. Gross Revenues may include Special Assessments Proceeds and/or other revenues related to the System which are not enumerated in the definition of "Gross Revenues" if so authorized by Supplemental Resolution and if and to the extent the same shall be approved for inclusion by all Insurers and Credit Banks. Even though Connection Fees are not treated as Gross Revenues, investment earnings on Connections Fees are treated as Gross Revenues. "Operating Expenses" means the City’s expenses for operation, maintenance and repairs with respect to the System and shall include, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, administration expenses, payments for the purchase of materials essential to or used in the operation of the System including bulk purchases of water or sewage services, fees for the management of the System or any portion thereof, accounting, legal and engineering expenses, ordinary and current rentals of equipment or other property, refunds of moneys lawfully due to others, payments to others for disposal of sewage or other wastes, actual payments to pension, retirement, health and hospitalization funds, and any other expenses required to be paid for or with respect to proper operation or maintenance of the System, including appropriate reserves therefor, all to the extent properly attributable to the System in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applicable to public utility systems similar to the System, and disbursements for the expenses, liabilities and compensation of any Paying Agent or Registrar under the Bond Resolution, but does not include any costs or expenses in respect of original construction or improvement other than expenditures necessary to prevent an interruption or continuance of an interruption of service or of Gross Revenues or minor capital expenditures necessary for the proper and economical operation or maintenance of the System, or any payments in lieu of taxes or franchise fees made to the City's general fund, or any accruals required to be recognized with respect to pension, retirement, health and hospitalization funds that do not require or result in the expenditure of cash, or any provision for interest, depreciation, amortization or similar charges, or any loss resulting from the valuation of investment securities, Hedge Agreements at market value and any other loss that does not require or result in the expenditure of cash. Payments in lieu of taxes or franchise fees, if any, are paid from the Utility Reserve Fund. "System" means any and all water production, transmission, treatment and distribution facilities, sewage collection, transmission, treatment and disposal facilities and reclaimed water (reuse) facilities now owned or hereafter owned by the City, which System shall also include any and all improvements, extensions and additions thereto hereafter constructed or acquired either from the proceeds of the Bonds or from any other sources, together with all property, real or personal, tangible or intangible, now or hereafter owned or used in connection therewith, including all contractual rights, rights to capacity and obligations or undertakings associated therewith. "System" shall also include any other utility facilities if and to the extent the City determines by Supplemental Resolution to include such utility or facilities within the System as described in the Bond Resolution. 12 "Connection Fees" means, collectively, the Wastewater Connection Fees and the Water Connection Fees. "Wastewater Connection Fees" means the fees and charges, if any, which relate to acquiring, constructing, equipping or expanding the capacity of the wastewater facilities of the System for the purpose of paying or reimbursing the equitable share of the capital cost relating to such acquisition, construction, expansion or equipping of capacity of the wastewater facilities or expansion thereof in order to serve new users of the wastewater facilities of the System, to the extent the same are lawfully levied, collected and pledged. "Wastewater Connection Fees" include those fees and charges currently known under Florida law as "impact fees" but shall not include fees and charges imposed for the cost of physically hooking up or connecting to the System. "Water Connection Fees" means the fees and charges, if any, which relate to acquiring, constructing, equipping or expanding the capacity of the water facilities of the System for the purpose of paying or reimbursing the equitable share of the capital cost relating to such acquisition, construction, expansion or equipping of capacity of the water facilities or expansion thereof in order to serve new users of the water facilities of the System, to the extent the same are lawfully levied, collected and pledged. "Water Connection Fees" include those fees and charges currently known under Florida law as "impact fees" but shall not include fees and charges imposed for the cost of physically hooking up or connecting to the System. Under Florida law, impact fees such as the Connection Fees may be validly imposed against new connections in order to fund capital improvements that are needed to serve new connections or for a portion of debt service for bonds or other obligations issued for such purposes and, therefore, can be applied only to pay debt service related to bonds issued to finance expansion of the System. Such lawfully available impact fees must be placed in separate accounts and, together with any investment earnings thereon, may only be used for the capital improvements or debt service attributable to expansion or oversizing of the System through construction or acquisition. See "—Funds and Accounts" below. Impact fee revenues fluctuate with the amount of new construction which occurs within the City. There can be no assurances, therefore, that such revenues will not decrease or be eliminated altogether in the event that new construction, for whatever reason, might decrease or cease altogether within the City. Notwithstanding the foregoing, pursuant to the Bond Resolution, the City may use any amount of Connection Fees to pay debt service on the Bonds to the extent the other Pledged Funds are insufficient; provided, however, if the City determines that such use was not lawful, the use of such Connection Fees shall be considered an inter-fund loan to be repaid from Gross Revenues in accordance with the Bond Resolution. The City has adopted a schedule for water meter installation and meter connection service charges in order to recover the cost of physically connecting water customers to the System's potable water utility facilities and to recover distribution system costs. The charges are based on the customer's peak flow rate and/or meter size to recognize differences in the cost of materials such as meters, or the amount of time generally spent on the installation of the service and capacity of the distribution system. In addition to water meter connection charges and water meter installation charges, the City also charges an application fee. These charges are considered to be Gross Revenues pursuant to the Bond Resolution and are not considered Water Connection Fees (also known as water impact fees) for purposes of the Bond Resolution. 13 Subordinated Indebtedness The City will not issue any other obligations, except under the conditions and in the manner provided in the Bond Resolution, payable from the Pledged Funds or the Gross Revenues or voluntarily create or cause to be created any debt, lien, pledge, assignment, encumbrance or other charge having priority to or being on a parity with the lien thereon in favor of the Bonds and the interest thereon. The City may at any time or from time to time issue evidences of indebtedness payable in whole or in part out of Pledged Funds and which may be secured by a pledge of Pledged Funds; provided, however, that such pledge shall be, and shall be expressed to be, subordinated in all respects to the pledge of the Pledged Funds created by the Bond Resolution and provided further that the issuance of such Subordinated Indebtedness shall be subject to any provisions contained in financing documents securing outstanding Subordinated Indebtedness to the extent such provisions impact on the ability of the City to issue other Subordinated Indebtedness. The City shall have the right to covenant with the holders from time to time of any Subordinated Indebtedness to add to the conditions, limitations and restrictions under which any Additional Bonds may be issued under the provisions of the Bond Resolution. The City agrees to pay promptly any Subordinated Indebtedness as the same shall become due. The City has pledged and created a subordinate lien on certain revenues and/or fees of the System for the benefit of the Florida Department of Environmental Protection ("FDEP") in connection with various loans to the City (the "FDEP Loans") which financed capital improvements to the System, junior and subordinate in all respects to such lien granted in favor of the Bondholders. The FDEP Loans constitute Subordinated Indebtedness under the Bond Resolution. As a backup source of security, the FDEP Loans are also secured by a covenant to budget and appropriate legally available non-ad valorem revenues of the City. The rate of interest on the several annual increments of the FDEP Loans ranges from 0.82% per annum to 3.05% per annum. As of September 30, 2023, the outstanding liability under the FDEP Loans was approximately $20.6 million. In the event of a default under the FDEP Loans, FDEP has the ability to enforce certain remedies under the FDEP Loans, including, but not limited to, acceleration in the event of a payment default, increasing the interest rate on the FDEP Loans by as much as 3.333% per annum and the appointment of a receiver. The FDEP Loans require that the City maintain rates and charges for the services furnished by System to maintain 1.15 times debt service coverage. Additionally, the City’s outstanding Drinking Water State Revolving Fund Construction Loan Agreement DW 2902E0, as amended, contains a provision which requires FDEP's consent to the issuance of additional debt obligations on parity with or senior to such FDEP Loans. Such Agreement provides that the City must demonstrate at the time of such issuance, during the period such FDEP Loan is outstanding, coverage equals or exceeds 1.15 times the annual combined debt service requirements of such FDEP loan and the obligations proposed to be issued by the City and will satisfy the coverage requirements of all other debt obligations secured by the Pledged Revenues. Notwithstanding the foregoing, FDEP's consent is discretionary and it is possible FDEP may not provide such consent even if the coverage requirement described above has been satisfied. However, the City received the consent of FDEP described above with respect to the issuance of the 2024 Bonds on August 8, 2024. See "--Additional Bonds" below for information about the issuance of Additional Bonds pursuant to the Bond Resolution. On May 19, 2022, the City adopted a resolution authorizing the issuance of Subordinated Indebtedness. At this time, the City does not have any immediate plans to issue any bonds or notes pursuant to such resolution; however, the City may decide to issue Subordinated Indebtedness in the future and it is anticipated that the lien on Net Revenues in favor of Subordinated Indebtedness would be senior to the lien in favor of the FDEP Loans. 14 Bonds Not Indebtedness of the City THE BONDS SHALL NOT BE OR CONSTITUTE GENERAL OBLIGATIONS OR INDEBTEDNESS OF THE CITY AS "BONDS" WITHIN THE MEANING OF ANY CONSTITUTIONAL OR STATUTORY PROVISION, BUT SHALL BE SPECIAL OBLIGATIONS OF THE CITY, PAYABLE SOLELY FROM AND SECURED BY A LIEN UPON AND PLEDGE OF THE PLEDGED FUNDS, IN THE MANNER AND TO THE EXTENT PROVIDED IN THE BOND RESOLUTION. NO HOLDER OF ANY BOND SHALL EVER HAVE THE RIGHT TO COMPEL THE EXERCISE OF ANY AD VALOREM TAXING POWER TO PAY SUCH BOND, OR BE ENTITLED TO PAYMENT OF SUCH BOND FROM ANY MONEYS OF THE CITY EXCEPT FROM THE PLEDGED FUNDS IN THE MANNER AND TO THE EXTENT PROVIDED IN THE BOND RESOLUTION. THE BONDS AND THE OBLIGATIONS EVIDENCED THEREBY SHALL NOT CONSTITUTE A LIEN UPON THE SYSTEM OR ANY OTHER PROPERTY OF THE CITY, BUT SHALL CONSTITUTE A LIEN ONLY ON, AND SHALL BE PAYABLE SOLELY FROM, THE PLEDGED FUNDS IN THE MANNER AND TO THE EXTENT PROVIDED IN THE BOND RESOLUTION. THE BONDS AND THE OBLIGATIONS EVIDENCED THEREBY SHALL NOT CONSTITUTE A LIEN UPON THE SYSTEM OR ANY OTHER PROPERTY OF THE CITY, BUT SHALL CONSTITUTE A LIEN ONLY ON, AND SHALL BE PAYABLE SOLELY FROM, THE PLEDGED FUNDS IN THE MANNER AND TO THE EXTENT PROVIDED IN THE BOND RESOLUTION. Funds and Accounts The City covenanted and agreed in the Bond Resolution to establish the following funds and accounts: (A) The "Revenue Fund." (B) The "Operation and Maintenance Fund." (C) The "Sinking Fund." The City shall maintain four separate accounts in the Sinking Fund: the "Interest Account," the "Principal Account," the "Term Bonds Redemption Account" and the "Reserve Account." (D) The "Water Connection Fees Fund." (E) The "Wastewater Connection Fees Fund." (F) The "Special Assessments Fund." (G) The "Renewal and Replacement Fund." (H) The "Utility Reserve Fund." (I) The "Rebate Fund." (J) The "Rate Stabilization Fund." (K) The "Construction Fund." 15 Moneys in the aforementioned funds and accounts (except for moneys in the Rebate Fund), until applied in accordance with the provisions of the Bond Resolution, shall be subject to a lien and charge in favor of the Holders of the Bonds and for the further security of such Holders, to the extent provided in the Bond Resolution. The City may at any time and from time to time appoint one or more depositaries to hold, for the benefit of the Bondholders, any one or more of the funds and accounts established in the Bond Resolution. Such depositary or depositaries shall perform at the direction of the City the duties of the City in depositing, transferring and disbursing moneys to and from each of such funds or accounts as set forth in the Bond Resolution, and all records of such depositary in performing such duties shall be open at all reasonable times to inspection by the City and its agents and employees. Any such depositary shall be a bank or trust company duly authorized to exercise corporate trust powers and subject to examination by federal or state authority, of good standing, and be qualified under applicable State law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the aforementioned funds and accounts are required to be established prior to the time any such fund or account is required to be funded or otherwise utilized under the Bond Resolution. Construction Fund The City covenanted and agreed to establish a special fund to be known as the "Construction Fund," which shall be used only for payment of the Cost of a Project, including the 2024 Project. Moneys in the Construction Fund, until applied in payment of any item of the Cost of a Project in the manner provided in the Bond Resolution, shall be subject to a lien and charge in favor of the Holders of the Bonds and for the further security of such Holders, without distinction as to which Bonds funded the Construction Fund. There shall be paid into the Construction Fund the amounts required to be so paid by the provisions of the Bond Resolution, and there may be paid into the Construction Fund, at the option of the City, any moneys received for or in connection with a Project by the City from any other source. The City shall establish within the Construction Fund a separate account for each Project the Cost of which is to be paid in whole or in part out of the Construction Fund. The City has established a separate account in the Construction Fund named the "Series 2024 Bonds Account" to pay the Cost of the 2024 Project. No Reserve Funding for 2024 Bonds The 2024 Bonds will not be secured by any amounts on deposit in the Reserve Account or in any separate reserve fund, reserve account or subaccount therein. None of the Parity Bonds are secured by amounts on deposit in the Reserve Account established under the Bond Resolution. There are no amounts on deposit in the Reserve Account. Under the terms of the Bond Resolution, the City will determine prior to the issuance of each Series of Additional Bonds whether to fund the Reserve Account or any subaccount therein to secure such Additional Bonds. If the City determines to fund the Reserve Account or a subaccount therein for the benefit of any Additional Bonds, it shall also determine the Reserve Account Requirement thereto. In that instance, such Reserve Account or subaccount will not secure the 2024 Bonds. 16 Rates The City has covenanted in the Bond Resolution to fix, establish, maintain and collect such rates, fees and charges for the product, services and facilities of the System, and revise the same from time to time, whenever necessary, so as always to provide in each Fiscal Year: (A) Net Revenues and Connection Fees equal to at least 120% of the Annual Debt Service becoming due in such Fiscal Year; provided. (B) Net Revenues that are adequate at all times to pay in each Fiscal Year at least 100% of: (1) the Annual Debt Service becoming due in such Fiscal Year, (2) any amounts required by the terms of the Bond Resolution to be deposited in the Reserve Account or with any issuer of a Reserve Account Letter of Credit or Reserve Account Insurance Policy in such Fiscal Year to pay Policy Costs, and (3) any amounts required by the terms of the Bond Resolution to be repaid to the Water Connection Fees Fund and Wastewater Connection Fees Fund in such Fiscal Year. Such rates, fees or other charges shall not be so reduced so as to be insufficient to provide adequate Net Revenues, Water Connection Fees and Wastewater Connection Fees for the purposes provided therefor by the Bond Resolution. If, in any Fiscal Year, the City shall fail to comply with these requirements, it shall promptly cause the Rate Consultant to review its rates, fees, charges, income, Gross Revenues, Operating Expenses, Connection Fees and methods of operation and to make written recommendations as to the methods by which the City may seek to comply with such requirements. The City shall forthwith commence to implement such recommendations to the extent required so as to cause it to thereafter comply with said requirements. So long as the City implements such recommendations within 120 days of the receipt thereof, the City's failure to comply with the rate covenant in the Bond Resolution will not be considered an Event of Default under the Bond Resolution. Rate Stabilization Fund The City may transfer into the Rate Stabilization Fund such moneys which are on deposit in the Utility Reserve Fund as it deems appropriate. The City may transfer such amount of moneys from the Rate Stabilization Fund to the Revenue Fund as it deems appropriate; provided, however, that on or prior to each principal and interest payment date for the Bonds (in no event earlier than the 25th day of the month next preceding such payment date), moneys in the Rate Stabilization Fund shall be applied for the payment into the Interest Account, the Principal Account and the Term Bonds Redemption Account when the moneys therein are insufficient to pay the principal of and interest on the Bonds coming due, but only to the extent moneys transferred from the Utility Reserve Fund and Renewal and Replacement Fund for such purposes pursuant to the Bond Resolution, together with moneys available in the Reserve Account for such purpose pursuant to the Bond Resolution, shall be inadequate to fully provide for such insufficiency. As of September 30, 2023, the Rate Stabilization Fund is funded in the amount of approximately $34 million. Disposition of Government Grants, Gross Revenues and Special Assessments (A)(1) In the event the City receives a Government Grant, the use and withdrawal of moneys from such Government Grant shall be governed by the terms of the Government Grant and applicable law. 17 (2) The City shall deposit promptly, as received, all Gross Revenues (other than subsequently pledged Special Assessments Proceeds) into the Revenue Fund. Moneys in Revenue Fund shall first be used each month to deposit in the Operation and Maintenance Fund such sums as are necessary to pay Operating Expenses for the ensuing month; provided the City may transfer moneys from the Revenue Fund to the Operation and Maintenance Fund at any time to pay Operating Expenses to the extent there is a deficiency in the Operation and Maintenance Fund for such purpose. Amounts in the Operation and Maintenance Fund shall be paid out from time to time by the City for Operating Expenses, including any expenses relating to the purchase or redemption of Term Bonds as provided in the Bond Resolution. The remaining moneys in the Revenue Fund shall be applied in accordance with the terms of the Bond Resolution. (3) To the extent Special Assessments Proceeds are made a component of the Gross Revenues, the City shall deposit promptly, as received, all Special Assessments Proceeds into the Special Assessments Fund. In the event the City by Supplemental Resolution provides for all or a portion of any Special Assessments to secure the payment of all or a portion of a particular Series of Bonds, the City may establish separate accounts or subaccounts for the deposit of such Special Assessments if necessary to provide for the earlier redemption of such Bonds from such Special Assessments. Moneys in the Special Assessments Fund shall be applied in accordance with the terms of the Bond Resolution. Currently, no Special Assessments are pledged to the payment of the Bonds. (B) Any deposits remaining in the Revenue Fund after the aforementioned transfers to the Operation and Maintenance Fund and all moneys at any time on deposit in the Special Assessments Fund (subject to the provisions above regarding earlier redemption of the Bonds) shall be disposed of by the City on or before the 25th day of each month, first from the Special Assessments Fund and then from the Revenue Fund in the following manner and in the following order of priority: (1) Interest Account. The City shall deposit or credit to the Interest Account the sum which, together with the balance in said Account, shall equal the interest on all Bonds Outstanding (except as to Capital Appreciation Bonds) accrued and unpaid and to accrue to the end of the then current calendar month. All Hedge Receipts and Federal Subsidy Payments shall be deposited directly to the Interest Account upon receipt. With respect to interest on Bonds which have corresponding Hedge Payments, interest on such Bonds during the term of the Qualified Hedge Agreement shall also be deemed to include the corresponding Hedge Payments. Moneys in the Interest Account shall be applied by the City (a) for deposit with the Paying Agents to pay the interest on the Bonds on or prior to the date the same shall become due and (b) for Hedge Payments. Any Federal Subsidy Payments deposited to the Interest Account shall be deemed to have been applied to the payment of interest on the Federal Subsidy Bonds to which such Payments relate. The City shall adjust the amount of the deposit to the Interest Account not later than a month immediately preceding any Interest Date so as to provide sufficient moneys in the Interest Account to pay the interest on the Bonds coming due on such Interest Date. No further deposit need be made to the Interest Account when the moneys therein are equal to the interest coming due on the Outstanding Bonds on the next succeeding Interest Date. With respect to debt service on any Bonds which are subject to a Qualified Hedge Agreement, any Hedge Payments due to the Counterparty to the 18 Qualified Hedge Agreement relating to such Bonds shall be paid to such Counterparty on a parity basis with the aforesaid required payments into the Sinking Fund. In computing the interest on Variable Rate Bonds which shall accrue during a calendar month, the interest rate on such Variable Rate Bonds shall be assumed to be (A) if such Variable Rate Bonds have been Outstanding for at least 24 months prior to the commencement of such calendar month, the highest average interest rate borne by such Variable Rate Bonds for any 30-day period, and (B) if such Variable Rate Bonds have not been Outstanding for at least 24 months prior to the date of calculation, the Bond Buyer Revenue Bond Index most recently published prior to the commencement of such calendar month. (2) Principal Account. Commencing in the month which is one year prior to the first principal payment date, the City shall next deposit into the Principal Account the sum which, together with the balance in said Account, shall equal the principal amounts on all Bonds Outstanding accrued and unpaid and that portion of the principal next due which would have accrued on such Bonds during the then current calendar month if such principal amounts were deemed to accrue monthly (assuming that a year consists of 12 equivalent calendar months having 30 days each) except for the Sinking Fund Installments to be deposited pursuant to the Bond Resolution, in equal amounts from the next preceding principal payment due date, or, if there be no such preceding payment due date from a date no later than one year preceding the due date of such principal amount. Moneys in the Principal Account shall be applied by the City for deposit with the Paying Agents to pay the principal of the Bonds on or prior to the date the same shall mature, and for no other purpose. Serial Capital Appreciation Bonds shall be payable from the Principal Account in the years in which such Bonds mature and monthly payments into the Principal Account on account of such Bonds shall commence in the twelfth month immediately preceding the maturity date of such Bonds. The City shall adjust the amount of the deposit to the Principal Account not later than the month immediately preceding any principal payment date so as to provide sufficient moneys in the Principal Account to pay the principal on Bonds becoming due on such principal payment date. No further deposit need be made to the Principal Account when the moneys therein are equal to the principal coming due on the Outstanding Bonds on the next succeeding principal payment date. (3) Term Bonds Redemption Account. Commencing in the month which is one year prior to the first Sinking Fund Installment due date, there shall be deposited to the Term Bonds Redemption Account the sum which, together with the balance in such Account, shall equal the Sinking Fund Installments on all Bonds Outstanding accrued and unpaid and that portion of the Sinking Fund Installments of all Bonds Outstanding next due which would have accrued on such Bonds during the then current calendar month if such Sinking Fund Installments were deemed to accrue monthly (assuming that a year consists of 12 equivalent calendar months having 30 days each) in equal amounts from the next preceding Sinking Fund Installment due date, or, if there is no such preceding Sinking Fund Installment due date, from a date not later than one year preceding the due date of such Sinking Fund Installment. Moneys in the Term Bonds Redemption Account shall be used to purchase or redeem Term Bonds in the manner provided in the Bond Resolution, and for no other purpose. Term Capital Appreciation bonds shall be payable from the Term Bonds Redemption Account in the years in which such Bonds mature and monthly payments into the Terms Bonds Redemption Account on account of such Bonds shall commence in the twelfth month immediately preceding the due date of the related Sinking Fund Installments. The City shall adjust the amount of the deposit to the Term Bonds Redemption Account on the month immediately preceding any Sinking Fund Installment Date so as to provide sufficient moneys in the Term Bonds Redemption Account to pay the Sinking Fund Installments becoming due on such date. Payments to the Term Bonds Redemption Account shall be on parity with payments to the Principal Account. 19 Amounts accumulated in the Term Bonds Redemption Account with respect to any Sinking Fund Installment (together with amounts accumulated in the Interest Account with respect to interest, if any, on the Term Bonds for which such Sinking Fund Installment was established) may be applied by the City, on or prior to the 60th day preceding the due date of such Sinking Fund Installment, (a) to the purchase of Term Bonds of the Series and maturity for which such Sinking Fund Installment was established, or (b) to the redemption at the applicable Redemption Prices of such Term Bonds, if then redeemable by their terms. Amounts in the Term Bonds Redemption Account which are used to redeem Term Bonds shall be credited against the next succeeding Sinking Fund Installment which shall become due on such Term Bonds. The applicable Redemption Price (or principal amount of maturing Term Bonds) of any Term Bonds so purchased or redeemed shall be deemed to constitute part of the Term Bonds Redemption Account until such Sinking Fund Installment date, for the purposes of calculating the amount of such Account. As soon as practicable after the 60th day preceding the due date of any such Sinking Fund Installment, the City shall proceed to call for redemption on such due date, by causing notice to be given as provided in the Bond Resolution, Term Bonds of the Series and maturity for which such Sinking Fund Installment was established (except in the case of Term Bonds maturing on a Sinking Fund Installment date) in such amount as shall be necessary to complete the retirement of the unsatisfied balance of such Sinking Fund Installment. The City shall pay out of the Term Bonds Redemption Account and the Interest Account to the appropriate Paying Agents, on or before the day preceding such redemption date (or maturity date), the amount required for the redemption (or for the payment of such Term Bonds then maturing), and such amount shall be applied by such Paying Agents to such redemption (or payment). All expenses in connection with the purchase or redemption of Term Bonds shall be paid by the City from the Operation and Maintenance Fund. (4) Reserve Account. There shall be deposited to the Reserve Account an amount which would enable the City to restore the funds on deposit in the Reserve Account to an amount equal to the Reserve Account Requirement applicable thereto. All deficiencies in the Reserve Account must be made up no later than 12 months from the date such deficiency first occurred, whether such shortfall was caused by an increase in the applicable Reserve Account Requirement, a decrease in the aggregate market value of the investments therein of more than 5% or withdrawal (whether from cash or a Reserve Account Insurance Policy or Reserve Account Letter of Credit). On or prior to each principal payment date and Interest Date for the Bonds (in no event earlier than the 25th day of the month next preceding such payment date), moneys in the Reserve Account shall be applied by the City to the payment of the principal of or Redemption Price, if applicable, and interest on the Bonds to the extent moneys in the Interest Account, the Principal Account and the Term Bonds Redemption Account shall be insufficient for such purpose, but only to the extent the moneys transferred from the Utility Reserve Fund for such purposes pursuant to the Bond Resolution shall be inadequate to fully provide for such insufficiency. Whenever there shall be surplus moneys in the Reserve Account by reason of a decrease in the Reserve Account Requirement or as a result of a deposit in the Reserve Account of a Reserve Account Letter of Credit or a Reserve Account Insurance Policy, such surplus moneys, to the extent practicable, shall be deposited by the City into the Utility Reserve Fund and applied as directed by Bond Counsel. The City shall promptly inform each Insurer and Credit Bank of any draw upon the Reserve Account for purposes of paying the principal of and interest on the Bonds. Upon the issuance of any Series of Bonds under the terms, limitations and conditions as provided in the Bond Resolution, the City shall fund the Reserve Account in an amount at least equal to the applicable Reserve Account Requirement to the extent such Series of Bonds are to be secured by the Reserve Account or any subaccount therein; provided, however, nothing herein shall be construed to require the City to fund the Reserve Account or any subaccount for any Series of Bonds. Upon the 20 adoption of the Supplemental Resolution authorizing the issuance of a Series of Bonds, the City shall determine whether such Series of Bonds shall be secured by the Reserve Account or any subaccount therein and, if the City determines that the Series of Bonds will be secured by a separate subaccount therein, the City shall also establish the Reserve Account Requirement applicable thereto. Such required amount, if any, shall be paid in full or in part from the proceeds of such Series of Bonds or may be accumulated in equal monthly payments to the Reserve Account or subaccount therein over a period of months from the date of issuance of such Series of Bonds, which shall not exceed 36 months. A Reserve Account Insurance Policy or Letter of Credit may be obtained by the City to fund all or a portion of any Reserve Account Requirement, however such Reserve Account Insurance Policy or Letter of Credit must meet certain requirements as described in "APPENDIX C – Form of the Bond Resolution" attached hereto. The 2024 Bonds will not be secured by any amounts on deposit in the Reserve Account or in any separate reserve fund, reserve account or subaccount therein. See "--No Reserve Funding for 2024 Bonds" above. (5) Renewal and Replacement Fund. There shall be deposited to the Renewal and Replacement Fund monthly such sums as shall be sufficient to pay 1/12 of the Renewal and Replacement Fund Requirement until the amount accumulated in such Fund is equal to the Renewal and Replacement Fund Requirement, taking into account the market value of investments in such Fund; provided, however, that: (a) such Renewal and Replacement Fund Requirement may be increased or decreased as the Consulting Engineers shall certify to the City is necessary for the purposes of the Renewal and Replacement Fund, and (b) in the event that the Consulting Engineers shall certify that the Renewal and Replacement Fund Requirement is excessive for the purposes of the Renewal and Replacement Fund such excess amount as may be on deposit therein may be transferred by the City from the Renewal and Replacement Fund for deposit into the Utility Reserve Fund. The moneys in the Renewal and Replacement Fund shall be applied by the City for the purpose of paying the cost of major extensions, improvements or additions to, or the replacement or renewal of capital assets of, the System or water facilities owned by the City, or extraordinary repairs of the System or water facilities owned by the City; provided, however, that on or prior to each principal and interest payment date for the Bonds (in no event earlier than the 25th day of the month next preceding such payment date), moneys in the Renewal and Replacement Fund shall be applied for the payment into the Interest Account, the Principal Account, and the Term Bonds Redemption Account when the moneys therein are insufficient to pay the principal of and interest on the Bonds coming due, but only to the extent moneys transferred from the Utility Reserve Fund for such purpose pursuant to the Bond Resolution, together with moneys available in the Reserve Account for such purpose pursuant to the Bond Resolution, shall be inadequate to fully provide for such insufficiency. Moneys in the Renewal and Replacement Fund may also be transferred to the Operation and Maintenance Fund to fund Operating Expenses to the extent Gross Revenues shall be insufficient for such purpose; provided, however, such transfer shall be treated as an interfund loan and shall be repaid from Gross Revenues as described in the Bond Resolution within one year from the date of such transfer. The Renewal and Replacement Fund Requirement is defined in the Bond Resolution as, on the date of calculation, an amount equal to (i) 5% of the Gross Revenues of the immediately preceding Fiscal Year or (ii) such lesser or greater amount certified to the City by the Consulting Engineers as an amount appropriate for purposes of the Bond Resolution. As of the date of issuance of the 2024 Bonds, the Renewal and Replacement Fund is fully funded in the amount of $16,945,437. 21 (6) Subordinated Indebtedness. Gross Revenues in the Revenue Fund shall next be applied by the City for the payment of any accrued debt service on Subordinated Indebtedness incurred by the City in connection with the System and in accordance with the proceedings authorizing such Subordinated Indebtedness. (7) Sinking Fund. There shall be deposited to the Interest Account, the Principal Account and the Term Bonds Redemption Account, in that order, sufficient moneys such that the amounts on deposit therein shall equal, respectively, the interest, principal and Sinking Fund Installment next coming due on the Bonds Outstanding; provided, however, no deposit need be made to the Principal Account or Term Bonds Redemption Account until a date one year preceding the due date of such principal amount or Sinking Fund Installment. (8) Utility Reserve Fund. The balance of any Gross Revenues remaining in said Revenue Fund shall be deposited in the Utility Reserve Fund and applied to the payment, on or prior to each principal and interest payment date for the Bonds (in no event earlier than the 25th day of the month next preceding such payment date), into the Interest Account, the Principal Account and the Term Bonds Redemption Account when the moneys therein shall be insufficient to pay the principal of and interest on the Bonds coming due. Moneys not required to meet such a deficiency shall be deposited to the Water Connection Fees Fund and Wastewater Connection Fees Fund to make up any withdrawal from such Funds pursuant to the Bond Resolution (to the extent required by the Bond Resolution), then to the Reserve Account to make up any deficiency therein, and thereafter to the Rebate Fund to the extent moneys are required to be deposited therein. Thereafter, moneys in the Utility Reserve Fund may be applied for any lawful purpose relating to the System, including, but not limited to, purchase or redemption of Bonds, payment of Subordinated Indebtedness, payment of other obligations incurred with respect to the System, deposit to the Rate Stabilization Fund, improvements, renewals and replacements to the System and payments in lieu of taxes or franchise fees, if any; provided, however, that none of such revenues shall ever be used for such purposes unless all other payments required in pursuant to the Bond Resolution, including any deficiencies for prior payments, have been made in full to the date of such use. Currently, the City’s policy is to annually charge the System (as well as the Solid Waste Department and the Parking Division) (the System, the Solid Waste Department and the Parking Division are considered to be enterprise departments) for payment in lieu of taxes ("PILOT") and payment in lieu of franchise fees ("PILOFF"). Such policy is subject to change. These payments are collected and deposited in the City’s General Fund. PILOT and PILOFF charges are intended to replace General Fund revenues the City would have received if the enterprise departments were private sector operations. If the enterprise departments were private companies, they would pay property taxes and franchise fees. PILOT is calculated annually based on the prior year value of real property assets for each enterprise department times the City's current year millage rate. PILOFF is calculated annually based on annual revenues collected within the City for each enterprise department times the currently authorized franchise fee percentage. (C) Whenever moneys on deposit in the Sinking Fund are sufficient to fully pay all Outstanding Bonds in accordance with their terms (including principal or applicable Redemption Price and interest thereon), no further deposits to the Sinking Fund need be made. If on any payment date the Gross Revenues are insufficient to deposit the required amount in any of the funds or accounts or for any of the purposes provided above, the deficiency shall be made up on the subsequent payment dates. 22 The City, in its discretion, may use moneys in the Principal Account and the Interest Account to purchase or redeem Bonds coming due on the next principal payment date, provided such purchase or redemption does not adversely affect the City’s ability to pay the principal or interest coming due on such principal payment date on the Bonds not so purchased or redeemed. (D) In the event the City shall issue a Series of Bonds secured by a Credit Facility, the City may establish separate subaccounts in the Interest Account, the Principal Account and the Term Bonds Redemption Account to provide for payment of the principal of and interest on such Series; provided payment from the Pledged Funds of one Series of Bonds shall not have preference over payment of any other Series of Bonds. The City may also deposit moneys in such subaccounts at such other times and in such other amounts from those provided in the Bond Resolution as shall be necessary to pay the principal of and interest on such Bonds as the same shall become due, all as provided by the Supplemental Resolution authorizing such Bonds. In the case of Bonds secured by a Credit Facility, amounts on deposit in the Sinking Fund may be applied as provided in the applicable Supplemental Resolution to reimburse the Credit Bank for amounts drawn under such Credit Facility to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on such Bonds or to pay the purchase price of any such Bonds which are tendered by the holders thereof for payment; provided such Credit Facility shall have no priority over Bondholders or an Insurer to amounts on deposit in the Sinking Fund. Other payments due to a Credit Bank in relation to obligations arising under its Credit Facility may be on parity with the Bonds as to source of and security for payment to the extent provided in the Supplemental Resolution relating thereto. Water Connection Fees Fund The City shall deposit into the Water Connection Fees Fund all Water Connection Fees as received, together with moneys transferred to such Fund pursuant to the Bond Resolution and such Water Connection Fees shall be accumulated in the Water Connection Fees Fund and applied by the City in the following manner and order of priority: (A) For the payments on or prior to each principal and interest payment date (in no event earlier than the 25th day of the month next preceding such payment date) into the Interest Account, the Principal Account and the Term Bonds Redemption Account, when the moneys therein are insufficient to pay the principal of and interest on the Bonds coming due, but only to the extent moneys transferred from the Utility Reserve Fund, the Renewal and Replacement Fund and the Rate Stabilization Fund for such purpose pursuant to the Bond Resolution, together with moneys available in the Reserve Account for such purpose pursuant to the Bond Resolution, shall be inadequate to fully provide for such insufficiency; provided moneys shall be transferred to the aforementioned accounts from the Water Connection Fees Fund and the Wastewater Connection Fees Fund on a pro-rata basis or such other basis as the City deems appropriate in relation to the amount of moneys in each Fund at the time of transfer. Any moneys transferred to the aforementioned accounts described above shall be treated as an interfund loan and shall be repaid, together with reasonable interest thereon, from Gross Revenues as described in the Bond Resolution on or prior to the date such amounts are needed for the purposes described in the Bond Resolution, but in no event later than one year from the date of such transfer, unless the City shall determine that such transfer constitutes a lawful use of such Water Connection Fees. (B) To the extent permitted by law, to pay or reimburse the capital cost of acquiring and/or constructing such improvements or additions to the water facilities of the System for which the Water 23 Connection Fees were imposed in accordance with the requisitions for disbursement of moneys provided by the City. (C) To be used for any other lawful purpose relating to the System. Wastewater Connection Fees Fund The City shall deposit into the Wastewater Connection Fees Fund all Wastewater Connection Fees as received, together with moneys transferred to such Fund pursuant to the Bond Resolution and such Wastewater Connection Fees shall be accumulated in the Wastewater Connection Fees Fund and applied by the City in the following manner and order of priority: (A) For the payments on or prior to each principal and interest payment date (in no event earlier than the 25th day of the month next preceding such payment Date) into the Interest Account, the Principal Account and the Term Bonds Redemption Account, when the moneys therein are insufficient to pay the principal of and interest on the Bonds coming due, but only to the extent moneys transferred from the Utility Reserve Fund, the Renewal and Replacement Fund and the Rate Stabilization Fund for such purpose pursuant to the Bond Resolution, together with moneys available in the Reserve Account for such purpose pursuant to the Bond Resolution, shall be inadequate to fully provide for such insufficiency; provided moneys shall be transferred to the aforementioned Accounts from the Wastewater Connection Fees Fund and the Water Connection Fees Fund on a pro-rata basis or such other basis as the City deems appropriate in relation to the amount of moneys in each Fund at the time of transfer. Any moneys transferred to the aforementioned Accounts described above shall be treated as an interfund loan and shall be repaid, together with reasonable interest thereon, from Gross Revenues as described in the Bond Resolution on or prior to the date such amounts are needed for the purposes described in the Bond Resolution, but in no event later than one year from the date of such transfer, unless the City shall determine that such transfer constitutes a lawful use of such Wastewater Connection Fees. (B) To the extent permitted by law, to pay or reimburse the capital cost of acquiring and/or constructing such improvements or additions to the wastewater facilities of the System for which the Wastewater Connection Fees were imposed in accordance with the requisitions for disbursement of moneys provided by the City. (C) To be used for any other lawful purpose relating to the System. Additional Bonds No Additional Bonds, payable on parity with the Bonds then Outstanding pursuant to the Bond Resolution, shall be issued except upon the conditions and in the manner provided in the Bond Resolution. The City may issue one or more Series of Additional Bonds for any one or more of the following purposes: (i) financing or refinancing the Cost of a Project, or the completion thereof, or (ii) refunding any or all Outstanding Bonds, any Subordinated Indebtedness of the City, or any other indebtedness of the City that it may lawfully refund with proceeds of Bonds. No such Additional Bonds shall be issued unless the following conditions are complied with: (A) Except in the case of Additional Bonds issued for the purpose of refunding Outstanding Bonds, the City shall certify that it is current in all deposits into the various funds and accounts established by the Bond Resolution and all payments theretofore required to have been deposited or 24 made by it under the provisions of the Bond Resolution, including all due and payable Policy Costs have been deposited or made, and the City is in compliance with the covenants and agreements of the Bond Resolution. (B) An independent certified public accountant or the Rate Consultant shall certify to the City that the amount of the Net Revenues (excluding Investment Earnings with respect to the Construction Fund) and Connection Fees received by the City during the immediately preceding Fiscal Year or any 12 consecutive months selected by the City of the 24 months immediately preceding the issuance of said Additional Bonds, adjusted as provided in the Bond Resolution, were equal to at least 120% of the Maximum Annual Debt Service of the Outstanding Bonds and the Additional Bonds then proposed to be issued, provided the amount of the Net Revenues, adjusted as provided in the Bond Resolution, received by the City during such 12-month period, will be equal to: (1) at least 100% of the Maximum Annual Debt Service of the Outstanding Bonds and the Additional Bonds then proposed to be issued, and (2) 100% of (a) any amounts required by the terms of the Bond Resolution to be deposited in the Reserve Account or with any issuer of a Reserve Account Letter of Credit or Reserve Account Insurance Policy to pay any Policy Costs and (b) any amounts required by the terms of the Bond Resolution to be repaid to the Water Connection Fees Fund and Wastewater Connection Fees Fund, in each case during such 12-month period. (C) For the purpose of determining the Debt Service under the Additional Bonds provisions of the Bond Resolution, the interest rate on Additional Bonds that are proposed to be issued as Variable Rate Bonds shall be deemed to be the Bond Buyer Revenue Bond Index most recently published prior to the sale of such Additional Bonds. (D) For the purpose of determining the Debt Service under the Additional Bonds provisions of the Bond Resolution, the interest rate on Outstanding Variable Rate Bonds (not subject to a Qualified Hedge Agreement) shall be deemed to be (1) if such Variable Rate Bonds have been Outstanding for at least 12 months prior to the date of sale of such Additional Bonds, the highest of (a) the actual rate of interest borne by such Variable Rate Bonds on the date of sale, and (b) the average interest rate borne by such Variable Rate Bonds during the 12-month period preceding the date of sale, or (2) if such Variable Rate Bonds have not been Outstanding for at least 12 months prior to the date of sale of such Additional Bonds, the higher of (a) the actual rate of interest borne by the Variable Rate Bonds on the date of sale, and (b) the Bond Buyer Revenue Bond Index most recently published prior to the sale of such Additional Bonds. (E) For the purpose of the issuance of Additional Bonds, the phrase "immediately preceding Fiscal Year or any 12 consecutive months selected by the City of the 24 months immediately preceding the issuance of said Additional Bonds" shall be sometimes referred to as "12 consecutive months" or the "12-month period." (F) The Net Revenues and the Connection Fees calculated pursuant to the Bond Resolution may be adjusted upon the written advice of the Rate Consultant, at the option of the City, as follows: (1) If the City, prior to the issuance of the proposed Additional Bonds, shall have increased the rates, fees or other charges for the product, services or facilities of the System, the Net Revenues and the Connection Fees for the 12 consecutive months shall be adjusted to show the Net Revenues and the Connection Fees which would have been derived from the System in 25 such 12 consecutive months as if such increased rates, fees or other charges for the product, services or facilities of the System had been in effect during all of such 12 consecutive months. (2) If the City shall have acquired or has contracted to acquire any privately or publicly owned existing utility system that will become part of the System, the cost of which shall be paid from all or part of the proceeds of the issuance of the proposed Additional Bonds, then the Net Revenues derived from the System during the 12 consecutive months shall be increased by adding to the Net Revenues for said 12 consecutive months the Net Revenues which would have been derived from said existing utility system as if such existing utility system had been a part of the System during such 12 consecutive months. For the purposes of this paragraph, the Net Revenues derived from said existing utility system during such 12 consecutive months shall be adjusted to determine such Net Revenues by deducting the cost of operation and maintenance of said existing utility system from the gross revenues of said system. Such Net Revenues shall take into account any increase in rates imposed on customers of such utility system on or prior to the acquisition thereof by the City. (3) If the City, in connection with the issuance of Additional Bonds, shall enter into a contract (with a duration not less than the final maturity of such Additional Bonds) with any public or private entity whereby the City agrees to furnish services in connection with any utility system, then the Net Revenues of the System during the 12 consecutive months shall be increased by the least amount which said public or private entity shall guarantee to pay in any one year for the furnishing of said services by the City, after deducting therefrom the proportion of operating expenses and repair, renewal and replacement cost attributable in such year to such services. (4) If the City covenants to levy Special Assessments against property to be benefited by the improvements, the cost of which shall be paid from the proceeds of the proposed Additional Bonds and the City has included the corresponding Special Assessment Proceeds within the definition of Gross Revenues pursuant to Supplemental Resolution, then the Special Assessments Proceeds derived from the System during the 12 consecutive months shall be increased by an amount equal to the least amount which the Rate Consultant estimates will be received in any one year subsequent to completion of such improvements from the levy of said Special Assessments, said amount to be the total received, assuming no prepayments, from the installment payments on the Special Assessments plus the interest paid on the unpaid portion of the Special Assessments. The estimate of the Rate Consultant shall be based upon the preliminary assessment roll filed with the City prior to the construction of such improvements. (5) In the event the City shall be constructing or acquiring additions, extensions or improvements to the System from the proceeds of such Additional Bonds and shall have established fees, rates or charges to be charged and collected from users of such facilities when service is rendered, such Net Revenues and Connection Fees for the 12 consecutive months may be adjusted by adding thereto 100% of the Net Revenues and Connection Fees estimated by the Rate Consultant to be derived during the first 12 months of operation after completion of the construction or acquisition of said additions, extensions and improvements from the customers of the facilities to be financed by Additional Bonds together with other funds on hand or lawfully obtained for such purpose; provided such customers must represent existing occupied structures that will be added to the System upon completion of the proposed additions, extensions or improvements. 26 (6) If the City shall add new customers subsequent to the commencement of the 12 consecutive months, the Rate Consultant may adjust the Net Revenues and Connection Fees to reflect the Net Revenues and Connection Fees that would have been received by the City if such customers had been in place for the entire 12 consecutive months. (7) The Net Revenues and Connection Fees shall be adjusted for any period the System or any portion thereof was not owned by the City to reflect government ownership of the System or such portion. (G) Additional Bonds shall be deemed to have been issued pursuant to the Bond Resolution the same as the Outstanding Bonds, and all of the other covenants and other provisions of the Bond Resolution (except as to details of such Additional Bonds inconsistent therewith) shall be for the equal benefit, protection and security of the Holders of all Bonds issued pursuant to the Bond Resolution. Except as provided in the Bond Resolution, all Bonds, regardless of the time or times of their issuance, shall rank equally with respect to their lien on the Pledged Funds and their sources and security for payment therefrom without preference of any Bonds over any other. (H) In the event any Additional Bonds are issued for the purpose of refunding any Bonds then Outstanding, the conditions described above shall not apply, provided that the issuance of such Additional Bonds shall result in a reduction of the aggregate debt service. The conditions described above shall apply to Additional Bonds issued to refund Subordinated Indebtedness and to Additional Bonds issued for refunding purposes which cannot meet the conditions of this paragraph. See "—Subordinate Indebtedness" above for information requiring FDEP consent requirements for the issuance of Additional Bonds. No Free Service The City will not render or cause to be rendered any free services of any nature by its System, nor will any preferential rates be established for users of the same class; provided, however, the foregoing clause shall not be construed to prevent the City from establishing various classes of users based on any factors deemed necessary or desirable by the City. Different rates may be established for different classes. Whenever the City, including its departments, agencies and instrumentalities, shall avail itself of the product, facilities or services provided by the System, or any part thereof, the same rates, fees or charges applicable to other customers receiving like services under similar circumstances shall be charged to the City and any such department, agency or instrumentality. Such charges shall be paid as they accrue, and the City shall transfer from its general funds to the Revenue Fund sufficient sums to pay such charges. The revenues so received shall be deemed to be Gross Revenues derived from the operation of the System, and shall be deposited and accounted for in the same manner as other Gross Revenues derived from such operation of the System. No Mortgage or Sale of the System The City has covenanted in the Bond Resolution not to sell, lease, encumber or in any manner dispose of the System as a whole or any substantial part thereof (except as provided below) until all of the Bonds and all interest thereon shall have been paid in full or provision for payment has been made in accordance with the Bond Resolution. 27 The foregoing provision notwithstanding, the City shall have and hereby reserves the right to sell, lease or otherwise dispose of any of the property comprising a part of the System in the following manner, if any one of the following conditions exist: (A) such property is not necessary for the operation of the System, (B) such property is not useful in the operation of the System, (C) such property is not profitable in the operation of the System, or (D) in the case of a lease of such property, such lease will be advantageous to the System and will not materially adversely affect the security for the Bondholders. Prior to any such sale, lease or other disposition of said property: (1) if the amount to be received therefor is not in excess of five percent (5%) of the market value of the gross plant of the System, an Authorized Issuer Officer shall make a finding in writing determining that one or more of the conditions for sale, lease or disposition of property provided for the Bond Resolution have been met; or (2) if the amount to be received from such sale, lease or other disposition of said property shall be in excess of five percent (5%) of the market value of the gross plant of the System, (a) an Authorized Issuer Officer and the Consulting Engineers shall each first make a finding in writing determining that one or more of the conditions for sale, lease or other disposition of property provided for in the Bond Resolution have been met, (b) the City Council shall, by resolution, duly adopt, approve and concur in the finding of the Authorized Issuer Officer and the Consulting Engineers, and (c) the City shall obtain an opinion of Bond Counsel to the effect that such sale, lease or other disposition is not in violation of the Act and will not adversely affect the federal tax exempt status of interest on the Bonds (other than Taxable Bonds) or shall not otherwise affect the status of any Outstanding Bonds issued as Federal Subsidy Bonds or the City’s receipt of Federal Subsidy Payments with respect to any Outstanding Federal Subsidy Bonds. Except as otherwise required under applicable provisions of the Code, the proceeds from any such sale or other disposition shall be deposited, first, into the Renewal and Replacement Fund to the extent necessary to make the amount therein equal to the Renewal and Replacement Fund Requirement, and, second, into the Utility Reserve Fund. Proceeds from any lease of assets of the System shall constitute Gross Revenues and shall be deposited in the Revenue Fund. The transfer of the System as a whole from the control of the City Council to some other board or authority which may hereafter be created for the purpose of owning, operating or controlling the System and which constitutes a governmental entity, interest on obligations issued by which are excluded from gross income for purposes of Federal income taxation (other than obligations similar to Taxable Bonds or Federal Subsidy Bonds), shall not be deemed prohibited by the Bond Resolution and such successor board or authority shall fall within the definition of "Issuer" in the Bond Resolution. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the City shall have the authority to sell for fair and reasonable consideration any land comprising a part of the System which is no longer necessary or useful in the operation of the System and the proceeds derived from the sale of such land shall be disposed of in accordance with the provisions of the Bond Resolution. The City may make contracts or grant licenses for the operation of, or grant easements or other rights with respect to, any part of the System if such contract, license, easement or right does not, in the opinion of the Consulting Engineers, as evidenced by a certificate to that effect filed with the City, impede or restrict the operation by the City of the System, but any payments to the City under or in connection with any such contract, license, easement or right in respect of the System or any part thereof shall constitute Gross Revenues and shall be deposited in the Revenue Fund. 28 Enforcement of Charges The City shall compel the prompt payment of rates, fees and charges imposed in connection with the System, and to that end will vigorously enforce all of the provisions of any ordinance or resolution of the City having to do with System connections and charges, and all of the rights and remedies permitted the City under law, including the requirement for the making of a reasonable deposit by each user, the requirement for lawful disconnection of services for all premises delinquent in the payment of any duly invoiced bill, and the securing of injunction against the disposition of sewage or industrial waste into the wastewater facilities of the System by any premises delinquent in the payment of such charges.

Duncan, P.E., who was appointed in February 2020 to oversee the following departments: (i) Infrastructure: (Contract Administration, Wastewater and Water) (ii) Logistics & Asset Management (iii) Solid Waste and Environmental Program Management (iii) Mobility: (Operations, Parking, Smart Mobility, Stormwater and Transportation Engineering) Ms. Duncan joined the City of Tampa as a Transportation Project Design Engineer in 2003. She was appointed as the Transportation Manager in 2009 by Mayor Pam Iorio and in 2014 was appointed as the Director of Transportation and Stormwater Services Department by Mayor Bob Buckhorn. On February 5, 2020, Ms. Duncan was appointed by Mayor Jane Castor as the Infrastructure and Mobility Administrator. Her administration includes approximately 1,400 employees and a yearly budget of over $500 million. Prior to joining the City of Tampa in 2003, Ms. Duncan owned a Civil Engineering Consulting firm for twelve (12) years. Her firm provided transportation and stormwater engineering services as well as coastal and estuary modeling, air and noise analyses, and environmental studies. She also served as the Assistant Project Development & Environmental ("PD&E") Administrator for the Florida Department of Transportation, District 7 Office in Tampa. She established a new PD&E department, building an engineering and environmental team to manage Project Development and Conceptual Design Projects, Florida Department of Transportation ("FDOT") Work Program Management and Regional Traffic Modeling for a four-county area. Ms. Duncan is actively involved in the civil engineering profession, and is an alumna volunteer with engineering students at the University of South Florida ("USF") College of Engineering and the USF Center for Transportation Research. She is also a Board member on the USF Center for Transportation Research Advisory Board. She is a registered Professional Engineer in Florida and holds a Bachelor of Science degree in Civil Engineering and a Master of Science in Engineering Management—both from the University of South Florida. Brad L. Baird, P.E. was appointed by the Mayor Jane Castor in February 2020, to oversee the activities of the Water Department, Wastewater Department and Contract Administration Department. Mr. Baird spearheaded the transition from private to public operations at the McKay Bay Waste-to- Energy Plant and currently leads the Progressive Infrastructure Planning to Ensure Sustainability, or PIPES Program. He has a Bachelor's Degree in Environmental Engineering from the University of Florida and is a professional engineer registered in the State of Florida. Mr. Baird was appointed as Director of the Water Department in April 2006. Prior to that, he served with the Wastewater Department since 1983, with his last assignment being the Deputy Director. During his tenure with the Wastewater Department, he served as Project Manager on more than $250 million worth of construction projects including treatment plant additions and modifications, major interceptors, pumping stations, neighborhood collection systems, and reclaimed water systems. He also led an Optimization Program for Water, Wastewater and Stormwater departments that included technology upgrades, improved work processes, and implemented skills-based matrices that resulted in multi-skilled workforces. Mr. Baird was the Director of the Water Department from 2006 to 2014, when he was promoted to the Public Works 31 and Utility Services Administrator for the City. He served in this capacity until February 2020, when he was appointed as the Deputy Administrator of Infrastructure. THE SYSTEM Background of Water and Wastewater Departments The City provides potable water service and reclaimed water service to its customers through the Water Department. The City also provides wastewater service through the Wastewater Department. Customers are located within the boundaries of the City and in parts of unincorporated Hillsborough County. The service areas for the two departments are not the same. Both serve the City, but the Water Department serves a larger portion of unincorporated Hillsborough County than does the Wastewater Department. The Wastewater Department serves the City of Temple Terrace, but the Water Department serves only a small portion of the City of Temple Terrace. Reclaimed water for land application service is available to approximately 5,594 customers in an area referred to as the South Tampa Area Reclaimed and is comprised of approximately 7.2 square miles of South Tampa and the Tampa International Airport. Water System Background of the Water Department The Water Department provides treatment and delivery of drinking water within its 220 square mile service area that encompasses the City of Tampa limits, parts of unincorporated Hillsborough County and portions of the City of Temple Terrace. During Fiscal Year 2023, the City provided service to approximately 131,452 water customer accounts and the average daily demand was 82 million gallons per day ("MGD"). Water is supplied from the David L. Tippin Water Treatment Facility ("DLTWTF"), which obtains raw water from the Hillsborough River Reservoir. The Water Department may also purchase potable water from Tampa Bay Water and is permitted to augment the Hillsborough River Reservoir with water from the Harney Canal, Sulphur Springs or their aquifer storage and recovery system. Raw water pumps located at the DLTWTF deliver raw water to the treatment system from the Hillsborough River Reservoir, which is fed by the Hillsborough River. Water is also pumped into the Hillsborough River Reservoir from the Tampa Bypass Canal system and Sulphur Springs during periods of low flow in the Hillsborough River. Treated water is pumped through 2,143.09 miles of water mains, which range from 2-inch to 54-inches in diameter. In addition, the Water Department maintains 15,066 fire hydrants, two elevated storage tanks and three re-pumping stations, each with ground storage tanks. The City's maximum day water production capacity is 120 MGD. In addition to the potable water supplied by the DLTWTF, the City has additional sources of finished potable water from Tampa Bay Water. Tampa Bay Water supplements the City's water supply with both raw and finished water. Morris Bridge Pumping Station is an established point of connection with Tampa Bay Water that the Water Department has relied upon during drought conditions. An emergency connection has also been constructed at U.S. Highway 301 near the Tampa Bay Water Surface Water Treatment Facility. This connection is designed to be activated and provide additional finished potable water when needed. The Water Department also has approximately 5,594 reclaimed water accounts within the City, as of the end of Fiscal Year 2023, using approximately 3.9 MGD of reclaimed water produced at the 32 Wastewater Department’s Howard F. Curren Advanced Wastewater Treatment Plant ("HFCAWTP"). City customers in the reclaimed water area have access to reclaimed water for irrigation and have the option to, but not the obligation to, connect to the reclaimed water distribution system. Water Supply The City is one of a few municipal water systems in Florida that produces potable water from a surface water source, rather than a groundwater source. Based on the City’s permitted access to several water supply sources and its aquifer storage and recovery system, the City is able to adeptly manage and respond to seasonal water supply challenges. The primary source of supply is withdrawn from the Hillsborough River Reservoir at the DLTWTF. The Southwest Florida Water Management District ("SWFWMD") Water Use Permit limits withdrawals to an average annual rate of 82 MGD and a maximum daily quantity of 120 MGD from the Hillsborough River Reservoir. Also, as stated in the Interlocal Agreement with Tampa Bay Water, the City can pursue an increase in its withdrawal rate up to 142 MGD peak month and 142 MGD maximum day provided that the proposed increase does not reduce the quantities available to Tampa Bay Water for the region. Additionally, the City may seek an increase in the annual average withdrawal from the Hillsborough River Reservoir to satisfy environmental needs after Tampa Bay Water permitted withdrawals for regional use have been met which, at this time, they have. Withdrawals from the Hillsborough River Reservoir can be augmented by other sources during extended dry periods. Under certain conditions, water from Sulphur Springs can be pumped to the Hillsborough River Reservoir. The Water Use Permit issued by the SWFWMD allows the City to pump a maximum of 20 MGD from Sulphur Springs, but limits the City to an annual average of 5 MGD. The total water withdrawn from the Hillsborough River Reservoir cannot exceed the average annual rate of 82 MGD. Through an Interlocal Agreement with Tampa Bay Water, discussed in detail later in this section, the City also uses the Tampa Bypass Canal east of the City for augmentation as authorized and when needed. The Tampa Bypass Canal was constructed as a flood control system to alleviate flooding from the Hillsborough River. The Interlocal Agreement with Tampa Bay Water allows the City to use water from the Tampa Bypass Canal when necessary, during dry periods. The Interlocal Agreement allows an annual average usage of 20 MGD and a peak month of 40 MGD. This source is also used for augmentation, but it does not increase the allowable 82 MGD withdrawal from the Hillsborough River Reservoir. In addition to these augmentation sources for the Hillsborough River Reservoir, the City also has Aquifer Storage and Recovery ("ASR") wells, which are used for storage. During wet weather periods, treated drinking water is pumped underground for storage and later use. These wells have a storage capacity of 1.2 billion gallons. The wells are permitted for withdrawal of 10 MGD for a period of 120 days. The 10 MGD ASR system, with a total of eight ASR Wells, was installed along with transmission pipelines to transport water recovered from the wells to the DLTWTF for treatment. All water resources other than that withdrawn from the Hillsborough River and its augmentation from Sulphur Springs, Tampa Bypass Canal and the ASR wells is provided by Tampa Bay Water, in accordance with the Interlocal Agreement with Tampa Bay Water. Tampa Bay Water owns and operates a number of well fields, a surface water reservoir in southern Hillsborough County, a desalination plant that withdraws water from Tampa Bay, treatment facilities, high service pumping facilities, and transmission 33 facilities to supply water to its member governments. This includes the Morris Bridge Wellfield which it purchased from the City and from which it now supplies treated water to the City when needed. The Morris Bridge Connection interties the City and Tampa Bay Water in the north portion of the service area. Another intertie is the US 301 Interconnect, which ties in the southeastern end of the service area. Water Transmission and Distribution The Water Department transmission and distribution system includes approximately 2,143 miles of water mains, five repump stations ("RPS") that include two elevated storage tanks, 15,066 fire hydrants, and 56,107 valves and appurtenances in three pressure zones. The North Tampa pressure zone is supplied by seven pumps at the Morris Bridge RPS, which has a total pumping capacity of 97 MGD. The South Tampa pressure zone is supplied by six high service pumps at the Interbay RPS, which has a total pumping capacity of 14 MGD. The DLTWTF pressure zone is supplied by the eight high service pumps at the plant and a total of five high service pumps at three RPSs: Northwest, West Tampa, and Palma Ceia. The total combined pumping capacity of the DLTWTF pressure zone is 158 MGD. The distribution system is supplied by approximately 2,143 miles of water mains ranging in diameter from two inches to 54 inches. The transmission mains range in size from 16 inches to 54 inches and are mostly made of cast iron and ductile iron. The distribution mains range in size from two inches to 12 inches and are mostly made of lined and unlined cast iron, ductile iron, polyvinylchloride (PVC), high density polyethylene, asbestos cement, or galvanized iron. In September 2019, the City launched a program called Progressive Infrastructure Planning to Ensure Sustainability ("PIPES"). The PIPES program is a proactive approach to replace existing pipes that are undersized or made of material that affects water quality, to renew aging infrastructure, and to prevent main breaks. Throughout the system, there are approximately 41.6 million gallons ("MG") of storage with an effective capacity of 29.5 MG through five clear wells, four ground storage tanks, and two elevated storage tanks. The City has an additional 1.2 billion gallons of storage through its aquifer storage and recovery system. Water Demands Historically, the number of water service connections has increased. Correspondingly, the average daily demand ("ADD") has increased gradually. Demands are anticipated to increase as the Water System grows and the customer base expands. Projected demands reflect recent successes in water conservation and account for population growth slowdown by using long term historical trends over the last several years. With the available options for augmenting the primary water supply from the Hillsborough River Reservoir, plus having the Tampa Bay Water interconnections to the City's system from the intertied regional network of water sources, the City has a secure potable water supply for well into the future. Water Treatment Facility The DLTWTF is located on approximately 54 acres along the Hillsborough River at 7125 North 30th Street, Tampa, Florida. The facility was constructed in the 1920s and remains one of Florida’s few water treatment facilities to treat water from a surface water source rather than groundwater. The main goals of DLTWTF are to provide safe drinking water by removing total organic carbon and color to reduce disinfection by-product formation, improve the aesthetic quality of the water, and reduce taste 34 and odor causing compounds. The subsequent paragraphs describe how DLTWTF operates to achieve these goals. Treatment begins when water is withdrawn from the Hillsborough River Reservoir and screened through a grass bar rack followed by mechanical screens to remove finer debris. Then, raw water is pumped to DLTWTF's four conventional treatment trains, which include coagulation, flocculation, and sedimentation. Together, these trains receive 70 to 80 percent of the total plant flow. The remaining flow is treated through two Actiflo™ treatment trains. Both systems, conventional and Actiflo™, use ferric sulfate as a coagulant and sulfuric acid for pH adjustment. After sedimentation, lime is added to the conventional treatment trains for pH adjustment. Then, the flow is directed to the ozonation process for primary disinfection. After primary disinfection, the flow is treated with caustic soda to achieve a pH of between 6.5 and 7.3 and then conveyed to the biological activated filtration process, which consists of 30 gravity filters. Finally, the water is treated with chlorine and ammonia to form chloramines for secondary disinfection. Treated water is stored in clear wells before being sent into the distribution system via the on-site high service pump stations. The sludge from both the conventional and the Actiflo™ treatment trains and filter waste wash water is thickened onsite. The onsite system consists of a surge tank, four gravity thickeners, two splitter boxes, and two sludge pumping stations. The supernatant from the thickeners is routed back to the head of the plant, while the thickened residuals are sent to the sludge processing facility for further processing and dewatering. Pumping and Storage The water system has 26 high service pumps in three (3) pressure zones that deliver treated water to customers. The DLTWTF pressure zone is supplied by eight (8) high service pumps at the plant and five (5) high service pumps at three RPSs: Northwest, West Tampa, and Palma Ceia. The total combined pumping capacity of the DLTWTF pressure zone is 200 MGD. The North Tampa pressure zone is supplied by seven (7) pumps at the Morris Bridge RPS, which has a total pumping capacity of 77 MGD, and the South Tampa pressure zone is supplied by six (6) high service pumps at the Interbay RPS, which has a total pumping capacity of 18 MGD. The Morris Bridge RPS normally pumps treated water supplied by the DLTWTF pressure zone and occasionally by Tampa Bay Water when needed. Throughout the water system, there are approximately 41.0 MG of storage with an effective capacity of 31.0 MG. Treated water is stored at the DLTWTF in underground clear wells, which have a combined capacity of 20.0 MG. Additionally, there are two 5.0-MG ground storage tanks at the Morris Bridge RPS, a 3.0-MG ground storage tank at the Northwest RPS, another 5.0-MG ground storage tank at the Interbay RPS, one 1.5-MG elevated storage tank at Palma Ceia, and one 1.5-MG elevated storage tank at West Tampa for storing treated water. Combined, these facilities provide a total of 41.0 MG of storage for finished water. However, pump suction line locations at the DLTWTF and the Morris Bridge RPS reduce the effective storage to 12.5 MG and 7.5 MG, respectfully, so the actual effective storage volume of the water system is 31.0 MG. The City has an additional 1.2 billion gallons of storage through its ASR system. 35 Regulatory Issues The Water System is subject to regulation at the federal, state and regional levels. Regulation at the federal level is implemented by the United States Environmental Protection Agency ("USEPA") under the Safe Drinking Water Act. The FDEP is the state regulatory and permitting agency, however in Hillsborough County, FDEP regulations are delegated to and administered by the Hillsborough County Health Department (local branch of the Florida Department of Health). The SWFWMD is the regional regulatory and permitting agency on water supply issues. On April 10, 2024, under the Safe Drinking Water Act, the USEPA issued the first-ever national, legally enforceable drinking water standard for per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances ("PFAS"). The USEPA issued this rule after reviewing extensive research and science on how PFAS above certain levels adversely affects public health. This final rule will designate two widely used PFAS chemicals, perfluorooctanoic acid ("PFOA") and perfluorooctanesulfonic acid ("PFOS"), as hazardous substances under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act ("CERCLA"). The rule sets drinking water limits for five individual PFAS, including PFOA and PFOS, as well as setting a limit for any combination of four PFAS, including what are known as "GenX Chemicals." Under the new regulations, two types of PFAS (PFOA and PFOS) cannot exceed four parts per trillion in public drinking water, and three additional PFAS cannot exceed 10 parts per trillion in public drinking water. Public water systems have three years of rule promulgation April 2024- April 2027 to begin monitoring for PFAS and five years, until 2029 to become compliant with the new limits. For the benefits described below and to address this new national standard, the City is developing a SIX Water Treatment Facility. The SIX Water Treatment Facility will satisfy USEPA requirements on forever chemicals including PFAS and PFOA. SIX Water Treatment Facility benefits will include: • Eliminates the use of sulfuric acid and calcium carbonate (lime); • Reduces the use of ferric sulfate and caustic soda; • Reduces sludge production by an estimated 63%, lowering processing and hauling costs; • Lowers ozonation electrical costs by an estimated 24%; • Increases filter run times, thereby reducing backwashing costs; • Projected Operating Expenses reductions of at least $4 million per year; • Pilot testing on Hillsborough River water yielded greater than anticipated results (those results validate SIX as a highly effective treatment process for water sources with high total organic carbon (TOC) variability); • Improved finished water quality with a reduction in TOC will result in lower distribution system nitrification; and • Post successful pilot testing, the City has engaged a highly regarded subject matter expert to examine, validate, and modify (if needed) every aspect of the plan going forward. See the Capital Improvement Program in the Financial Feasibility Report attached hereto as APPENDIX E which includes $155,250,371 to develop SIX Water Treatment Facility. 36 Permits In 1974, Congress passed the Safe Drinking Water Act ("SDWA"), which directed the USEPA to establish minimum drinking water standards. These standards are divided into two categories: primary regulations (those required for public health) and secondary regulations (those recommended for aesthetic qualities). The State has adopted the secondary regulations as enforceable standards. FDEP has the primary role of regulating public water systems in the State as derived from Chapter 403, Part IV, Florida Statutes, and by delegation of the federal program from the USEPA. However, in Hillsborough County, FDEP regulations are delegated to and administered by the Hillsborough County Health Department (local branch of the Florida Department of Health). FDEP has promulgated rules within the Florida Administrative Code ("FAC") Chapter 62 for regulation of public water supplies. The City’s potable water system complies with the rules of FAC Chapter 62. In accordance with the SDWA requirements, the City publishes and distributes a drinking water quality annual report outlining TWD’s compliance with the water quality standards established by the USEPA. In 2023, the Water Department was awarded the "25-Year Directors Award" by the Partnership for Safe Water acknowledging ongoing treatment optimizations and water quality monitoring that go above and beyond regulatory requirements. The City is a founding member of the Partnership for Safe Water. The City uses their in-house laboratory for regular monitoring of water quality. Comprehensive water quality tests are also performed annually using independent laboratories. The City is currently in compliance with all applicable regulations relating to water quality and has not been cited for any regulatory violations within the past five years. On December 14, 2004, the City obtained a 20-year WUP from SWFWMD for the surface water withdrawal from the Hillsborough River Reservoir and other secondary sources as previously noted. The WUP expires on December 14, 2024. The City is in the pre-application phase of renewing the WUP and plans to submit the application by September 2024. The City plans to apply to renew the WUP for a permit duration of 40 years. The City operates all its facilities and the DLTWTF according to permits issued by the regulatory agencies, and the City has maintained current permits for all facilities. To the Consulting Engineers’ knowledge, the City is in compliance with all federal and state regulatory requirements relating to the provisions of water services, and there are no outstanding consent orders requiring corrective actions issued by any regulatory agency relating to any component of the Water System. Interlocal Agreements The City is a member government of Tampa Bay Water, the regional water supply authority for the area. In addition to the City, "Member Governments" include Hillsborough County, Pasco County, Pinellas County, City of St. Petersburg, and City of New Port Richey. There are two core legal agreements that set forth the governance and operation of Tampa Bay Water, the Amended and Restated Interlocal Agreement of 1998 and the Master Water Supply Contract. Tampa Bay Water is not a party to the first Agreement but is a party to the latter. The "Amended and Restated Interlocal Agreement Reorganizing the West Coast Regional Water Supply Authority (1998)", also known as the "Governance Agreement" embodies the 37 restructured West Coast Regional Water Supply Authority as directed by the Florida Legislature. Tampa Bay Water was established on August 31, 1998 as evidenced by this agreement which changed the name, structure and operations of the West Coast Regional Water Supply Authority. The creation of Tampa Bay Water represented an end to the region's "water wars" and established a new regional authority, not a cooperative, between the Member Governments. Under this Governance Agreement, Member Governments relinquished to Tampa Bay Water their individual rights to develop drinking water supply sources except for the City. The City retained its water use permit which authorized the withdrawal of 82 million gallons per day for the City to supply its customer. This is the City's exception to the "Exclusivity Clause" contained in the Agreement. There are also other conditions under which the City could seek to withdraw additional water. Tampa Bay Water became the sole and exclusive wholesale drinking water supplier for the remaining Member Governments. It has the absolute obligation to meet the wholesale drinking water needs of the Member Governments except the City. The agreement has a 40-year term and expires in 2038 unless debt service associated with their bond issues extend beyond the expiration date. Tampa Bay Water also acquired regionally significant wholesale water supply facilities and tangible assets owned by the Member Governments at an agreed upon value. Tampa Bay Water provides water at a wholesale uniform per gallon rate to its six Member Governments for the supply of drinking water to nearly 2.5 million people across their respective service area including the City’s approximately 131,452 water customers served by the Water Department. Under the terms of the Governance Agreement, in 1998 the City sold its Morris Bridge Wellfield to Tampa Bay Water, which is now used as a backup source for meeting supplemental needs for the City's water supply during dry periods. When the City's raw water supply from the Hillsborough River Reservoir is reduced due to drought or reaches its permitted limits, it purchases treated water from Tampa Bay Water if water is available. However, the primary source of supply for the City remains as it has been since the 1920s, the Hillsborough River Reservoir, with treatment at the DLTWTF. The Master Water Supply Contract with Tampa Bay Water (the "Contract"), established by the Restated Interlocal Agreement, establishes the operational conditions such as water quality and points of connection for supplying water and for developing a plan for sharing the costs of operating, acquiring, constructing, equipping and expanding the system. The combination of the Governance Agreement and the Master Water Supply Contract obligates Tampa Bay Water as an entity to meet the needs for potable water supply for the Member Governments. Should Tampa Bay Water fail to provide adequate supply, then the City, as well as other Member Governments, may enter into agreements with other suppliers. Tampa Bay Water establishes a single uniform rate (unitary rate) for the sale of potable water to the Member Governments, other than water delivered to the City from the Tampa Bypass Canal that is not attributable to the Tampa Bay Water augmentation projects. The rate charged to the City for water provided through the Tampa Bypass Canal will be equal to Tampa Bay Water’s direct cost and allocated overhead. The Contract requires that the City and the other Member Governments supply water to customers only from Tampa Bay Water or in the City’s case its own source, distributed through the Member Government transmission and distribution systems, but the members can sell bulk quantities of water on a wholesale basis to other utilities. Under this provision, the City provides water to portions of Hillsborough County. 38 The Contract further requires the City to collect such fees, rates and other appropriate charges for the facilities of its system in order to fund timely payment of its respective obligations and liabilities to Tampa Bay Water. The City is also required to maintain its water utility system operation and maintenance accounts for the purpose of paying its obligations and liabilities. However, the City is not liable for the obligations of any other Member Government. Each Member Government is solely responsible for the performance of its own obligations. The City entered into an interlocal agreement with Hillsborough County (as amended, the "City- County Interlocal Agreement") in June 1979 to comply with orders from the Florida Legislature requiring Hillsborough County and the City "to make the most efficient use of their powers by enabling them to cooperate with each other … to provide services and facilities for water systems … to the county and the city." Since then, the agreement has been amended several times. It was established for the purposes of: - Complying with Florida statutory law. - Delineating geographic boundaries outside City limits but within Hillsborough County for which the water department would provide water services. - Defining the rates and charges to be paid by Hillsborough County to the City for providing these services. - Requiring Hillsborough County and the City to share easements and rights-of-way. The City and Hillsborough County agreed to extend the term of the agreement in May 2019, June 2020, June 2021, and June 2023. On June 15, 2023, City Council approved Resolution 2023-569 to extend the term of the agreement by an additional 2-year period to June 26, 2025, to allow both, the City and the County, time to negotiate agreeable terms regarding new water and wastewater service boundaries. Additional interlocal agreements between Hillsborough County and the City as they pertain to water and wastewater services are as follows: 1. In 1993, the City agreed to provide wastewater services to a private utility franchised by Hillsborough County called Southern States Utilities, Inc. This agreement automatically renews every five years unless terminated by any party. 2. In 1994, the City agreed to provide wastewater services to the Hillsborough County Aviation Authority, which governs Tampa International Airport. 3. In 2016, the City defined the means of service and rate for Hillsborough County to directly serve North Palm River residents’ water provided by the Water Department.

Wastewater System Background of Wastewater System The Wastewater System provides wastewater collection and treatment service to approximately 107,252 customer accounts in the City and portions of the unincorporated area of Hillsborough County. The highly treated effluent produced by the HFCAWTP is suitable for discharge to Hillsborough Bay and as a source of reclaimed water. The Wastewater Department has retail customers both within the City and within the portion of unincorporated Hillsborough County within the service area. The City also serves a portion of Hillsborough County and the City of Temple Terrace as bulk customers under interlocal agreements. The Wastewater Service Area encompasses an area of approximately 211 square miles, including the City of Temple Terrace and the portion of unincorporated Hillsborough County served by the City. The Water Department, by contrast, includes about 220 square miles of service area, including a larger portion of unincorporated Hillsborough County and only a small portion of the City of Temple Terrace. The Wastewater Department operates the pumping system (located at the HFCAWTP) that provides reclaimed water to the reclaimed water area located in south Tampa, Tampa International Airport and the McKay Bay Waste-to-Energy Plant. Wastewater Treatment Plant All wastewater from the City is treated at the HFCAWTP. The HFCAWTP is located on approximately 130 acres on the Hillsborough Bay at 2700 Maritime Boulevard, Tampa, Florida. The facility was originally constructed in the 1950s and has been upgraded several times. The plant is a Type I two-stage, high rate (pure oxygen and fine bubble aeration) activated sludge biological nitrification/ denitrification domestic wastewater treatment plant. The main goals of HFCAWTP are to provide customers with advanced wastewater treatment ("AWT") and protect public health and the environment by removing biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), total suspended solids (TSS), and total nitrogen ("TN") to meet permitted limits. The subsequent paragraphs describe how HFCAWTP operates to achieve these goals. 41 The treatment process includes preliminary, primary, secondary, and tertiary treatment. Preliminary treatment begins when wastewater from the collection system enters HFCAWTP via five force mains (36 inches to 54 inches in diameter). The wastewater is aerated at junction chamber no. 1 to release hydrogen sulfide gas, and the resultant air emissions are treated at the odor control system using sodium hydroxide. Next, primary treatment occurs and includes removal of large debris from the wastewater via five screens at screen and Grit Buildings No. 1 and No. 2. Then, the wastewater flows to eight primary settling tanks and reduces BOD and TSS loading to the secondary treatment process. Secondary treatment involves the two-stage biological process where wastewater is pumped via the main pumping station to six high purity oxygen ("HPO") reactors to remove carbonaceous BOD and suspended solids. A mixed liquor is created in the reactors and is aerated by HPO that is produced onsite by two 60 ton/day cryogenic HPO generation systems. The biological process continues with gravity settling in 12 final settling tanks. The second biological process stage includes nitrification via four diffused air reactors, a blower building, and a nitrification pumping station. Then, the mixed liquor is settled in final settling tanks 13 – 20 before tertiary treatment. Tertiary treatment includes denitrification, high-level disinfection, and dechlorination. Denitrification is accomplished by 32 coarse sand filters to reduce TSS and TN. The facility uses chlorine gas for primary disinfection and sulfur dioxide for dechlorination in three chlorine contact tanks. These processes, in conjunction with post-aeration, result in levels of TSS, TN, dissolved oxygen, and chlorine residual that meet permitted levels for surface water discharge and public access reuse. Ultimately, the HFCAWTP produces highly treated effluent that is either discharged to Hillsborough Bay, distributed to reclaimed water customers, or reused within the plant. The HFCAWTP manages residuals that are collected in each stage of the treatment process. Waste activated sludge ("WAS") that is accumulated in final settling tanks 1 through 12 is blended with polymer and thickened in two gravity thickeners. Then, thickened WAS is mixed with primary sludge from the primary settling tanks and the resultant is pumped to seven anaerobic digesters to produce stabilized biosolids, reduce pathogens, reduce biosolids mass by volatile solids destruction, and generate biogas as a usable by-product. The resulting biosolids are stabilized for land application as Class B biosolids or disposed of in a Class I solid waste landfill. The County has reached treatment capacity at its Falkenburg Road Advanced Wastewater Treatment Plant ("Falkenburg Plant") and desires to divert up to 2.5 MGD of wastewater from its Falkenburg Plant to the HFCAWTP. The City has available treatment capacity to accept up to 2.5 MGD of wastewater flow from the Falkenburg Plant at the HFCAWTP. The City and County have entered into the Interlocal Agreement to accomplish this objective. Effluent and Residuals Management The HFCAWTP has a permitted capacity of 96.0 MGD and is operated to achieve AWT with high-level disinfected and dechlorinated effluent that is discharged directly to Hillsborough Bay via a 78- inch conduit. Additionally, HFCAWTP has two relief outfalls that are permitted for use when flows to the plant exceed approximately 100 MGD and there are extreme high tide conditions. The relief outfalls include a 72-inch and a 96-inch conduit to the Ybor City Drain, which ultimately flows to Hillsborough 42 Bay. Pursuant to FAC rule 62-4.244, all three outfall locations include a mixing zone for dichlorobromomethane and dibromochloromethane for the effluent discharge. Effluent from the HFCAWTP is required to meet certain water quality standards as outlined in its permit. The HFCAWTP must produce effluent with annual average concentrations of five milligrams per liter (mg/L) of CBOD, 5 mg/L of TSS, and 3 mg/L of TN. In Fiscal Year 2023, the annual average CBOD, TSS, and TN concentrations were 2.0 mg/L, 0.8 mg/L, and 2.5 mg/L, respectively. The HFCAWTP staff also regularly test for other water quality characteristics such as chlorine residual, dissolved oxygen, and fecal coliform. FDEP has issued two Final Orders for Hillsborough Bay that establish TN load allocations for the Hillsborough County Falkenburg Advanced Wastewater Treatment Plant. The City’s TN load allocations to Hillsborough Bay are 213.2 tons per year on a five-year rolling average basis and 319.8 tons per year as an annual total. However, following execution of the agreement between the City and Hillsborough County, the allowable TN loading limits will be permanently revised to 213.6 tons per year as a five-year rolling average and 320.4 tons per year as an annual total. The five-year rolling average TN load for Fiscal Year 2023 was 212.1 tons, which was about 99 percent of the allowable load allocation at that time. The annual total TN load for Fiscal Year 2023 was 201.2 tons, which was about 63 percent of the allowable load allocation at that time. The agreement between the City and Hillsborough County would increase the City’s five-year rolling average TN allocation to 230.88 tons per year and the annual total to 346.32 tons per year for as long as Hillsborough County discharges wastewater to the City from the Hillsborough County Falkenburg Advanced Wastewater Treatment Plant. The City currently uses reclaimed water in the following ways: • The City has an agreement with Mosaic Fertilizer, LLC to provide water for chemical heating. The water is pumped to the Mosaic Fertilizer, LLC facility, south of the plant site, run through heat exchangers, and returned to the plant about 10 degrees F cooler. The returned cooler water provides the City with benefits, as the water is again reused for cooling applications within the plant. For the Fiscal Year 2023, this amounted to about 3.06 MGD annual average. • The City provides 0.50 MGD annual average (Fiscal Year 2023) of reclaimed water to the City’s McKay Bay Waste-to-Energy Facility, reducing demand for potable water. • A permitted capacity of 6 MGD AADF for slow-rate public access reuse to the South Tampa Area Reclaimed System. The City provided an annual average of 3.9 MGD of reclaimed water for irrigation in Fiscal Year 2023 to approximately 5,594 customers in south Tampa and to the Tampa International Airport for irrigation and other uses. Each customer has a metered connection. The distribution system is operated and maintained by the Water Department. The current peak demand has been about 5 MGD, but the transmission line capacity is about 30 MGD. The Wastewater System operates and maintains the pumps that supply the system. The City explored researching a potential water supply and highly treated wastewater disposal project called Purify Usable Resources for the Environment ("PURE") that might assist the City better 43 withstand the risk of droughts, improve the health of the Hillsborough River and comply with new regulations that restrict discharges into Tampa Bay. The City retained an engineering consulting firm to conduct additional analyses relating to PURE and to assist the City with public engagement. In 2023, the City Council voted to end the process. Permitted Effluent Disposal The HFCAWTP is regulated through FDEP, which primarily deals with the quality of discharged effluent, disposal of biosolids, and the nature of waste material in collection facilities. The HFCAWTP was issued its National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System ("NPDES") permit (FL0020940-024) on March 9, 2021, and it will expire on March 8, 2026. The City has consistently met its permitted effluent limitations. The current NPDES permit allows the HFCAWTP to discharge as much as 96 MGD on an annual average basis to Hillsborough Bay. The permit also limits the total nitrogen concentration to 3.0 mg/L on an annual average basis. In addition, the permit limits the total quantity of nitrogen discharged to Hillsborough Bay to 213.2 tons per year on a five-year average basis and 319.8 tons per year as an annual total, which is part of the TMDL for nitrogen established for Hillsborough Bay. The current total effluent nitrogen concentration is 2.43 mg/L as an annual average and the annual average plant flow (Fiscal Year 2023) is 57.49 MGD. An average of 3.85 MGD is reused at R-001 and 0.41 MGD is reused at R-002. This leaves 53.23 MGD as the current annual average flow that is discharged to Hillsborough Bay. The annual total Nitrogen Discharge for 2023 was 207.3 tons, this is 64.8% of the allowable discharge of Nitrogen per year. Therefore, there is significant available capacity, with no changes to the effluent management or treatment strategy. In the future, the City could increase the amount of flow going to R-001 as reuse by adding customers within the existing reclaimed water system or by expansion of that system. Wastewater Collection The wastewater collection system includes approximately 1,252 miles of gravity lines, 281 miles of force mains, 29,292 manholes, 229 pump stations, and 6,654 valves and cleanouts. These totals are for active infrastructure elements owned by the City based on publicly available geospatial data. The larger pump stations have on-site backup power supply and odor control systems, and the City owns several portable generators in case of power failure at smaller pump stations. Additionally, all pump stations are equipped with remote terminal units and monitored through the Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition ("SCADA") system. The 1,252 miles of gravity lines range in diameter from 2 to 72 inches and are mostly made of PVC and vitrified clay. The 281 miles of force mains range in diameter from 0.75 to 96 inches and are mostly made of cast iron, ductile iron, and PVC. The City’s PIPES program aims to proactively replace and rehabilitate aging piping that often results in line breaks. Numeric Nutrient Criteria FDEP established "Numeric Nutrient Criteria" ("NNC") for waterbodies in the State of Florida in 2012. The final version of the NNC recognizes that site specific interpretations for nutrients that are formally established by rule or final order by the Department, such as a Reasonable Assurance Demonstration, are the primary numeric interpretation for those discharges. The City of Tampa has an existing Reasonable Assurance Demonstration that is formally established in a Final Order. This Final 44 Order establishes the permit limits for Total Nitrogen load for the discharge to Hillsborough Bay as noted above. Consent Order The City was party to a negotiated short form consent order (FDEP Office of General Counsel file #22-2071) on February 9, 2023, with regards to 14 unauthorized discharges of approximately 24,388 gallons of untreated wastewater impacting surface waters, three discharges of approximately 67,710 gallons of public access to quality water, 13 discharges of approximately 30,999 gallons of untreated wastewater not impacting surface waters, and 15 discharges of 14,220 gallons of untreated wastewater to the ground over the period from September 2021 through September 2022. Under the terms of the consent order, the City was subject to either a penalty of $89,878.38 or an in-kind project for environmental enhancement, environmental restoration, or capital/facility improvements with an equivalent cost of at least $134,817.57. The City responded with an in-kind project proposal sent on March 6, 2023, and approved by the FDEP on April 10, 2023. The in-kind project is underway. FDEP Issues On June 12, 2024, FDEP conducted an office file review of the Discharge Monitoring Reports ("DMRs") for the HFCAWTP on May 31, 2024. The DMRs submitted from February 2022 through April 2024 indicate effluent and groundwater quality permit limit exceedances. These exceedances are in possible violations of chapter 403, Florida Statutes, and Chapters 62-302, 62-520, and 62-610, Florida Administrative Code (F.A.C.). Violations of Florida Statutes or administrative rules may result in liability for damages and restoration, and the judicial imposition of civil penalties, pursuant to Chapter 403, Florida Statutes and Chapter 62-600, Florida Administrative Code, which has not been determined at this time. The City received a Warning Letter (WL24-171DW29SWD) from FDEP on September 4, 2024 for unpermitted sanitary sewer overflows totaling approximately 343,865 gallons on August 5, 2024 associated with Hurricane Debby. FDEP will be initiating formal enforcement proceedings following investigation and resolution. In addition to the risk of physical damage to the System and potential operational interruptions, significant rainfall associated with hurricanes or other weather-related events may put increased pressure on the System, resulting in, for example, unpermitted sanitary sewer overflows as occurred in Hurricane Debby. See "INVESTMENT CONSIDERATIONS – Hurricanes" herein for more information. Interlocal Agreements In 1962, the City entered an interlocal agreement to provide the City of Temple Terrace with wastewater service. This agreement has been amended several times, and it was last amended in 2021 to allow for an increased peak flow from one of the City of Temple Terrace’s master pump stations, which was recently reconstructed and for the following purposes: • Defining the terms and responsibilities by which the City will accept wastewater flows from the City of Temple Terrace. • The City is to "implement and enforce a pretreatment program to control discharges from all industrial users" in accordance with the EPA and FDEP. 45 • The City is to update wastewater ordinances and their Wastewater Department Technical Manual of Standards for Industrial and Special Users in accordance with FDEP. • Obligating both parties to ensure compliance with the Clean Water Act (CWA). This agreement is valid until 2032; however, the City of Temple Terrace is entitled to cancel the agreement under the terms as outlined in the agreement. The City of Temple Terrace must make monthly payments to the City for wastewater service. Under the City-County Interlocal Agreement described above, the City and Hillsborough County were required to comply with orders from the Florida Legislature "to make the most efficient use of their powers by enabling them to cooperate with each other … to provide services and facilities for...wastewater systems …to the county and the city." It was established for the purposes of: • Complying with Florida statutory law. • Delineating geographic boundaries outside City limits but within Hillsborough County for which the wastewater department would provide wastewater services. • Defining the rates and charges to be paid by Hillsborough County to the City for providing these services. • Requiring Hillsborough County and the City to share easements and rights-of-way. Additional interlocal agreements between Hillsborough County and the City as they pertain to wastewater services are outlined as follows: 1. In 1993, the City agreed to provide wastewater services to a private utility franchised by Hillsborough County called Southern States Utilities, Inc. 2. In 1994, the City agreed to provide wastewater services to the Hillsborough County Aviation Authority, which governs Tampa International Airport, for the Vandenburg Airport.

Other Matters The City and the County are currently evaluating the transfer of service under an interlocal agreement that would potentially impact approximately 2,500 water and 1,500 wastewater customers. Most of those customers are currently served by the City's Water Department and Wastewater Department, which reside in unincorporated portions of the County. The City cannot predict at this time whether such agreement will be reached with the County and if so, the timing of such agreement. However, the City does not expect such transfer, if it occurs, will have a material impact on the City's ability to pay debt service on the 2024 Bonds. See "SECURITY FOR THE BONDS —No Mortgage or Sale of the System" herein and APPENDIX C attached hereto for more information regarding the bond covenants relating to the City's disposition of assets of the System. RATES, FEES AND OTHER CHARGES FOR SERVICE Water and Wastewater Rates The rates for water and wastewater service are set by the City Council; the establishment of rates is not under the jurisdiction of the Florida Public Service Commission ("FPSC"). The existing rates for the System were established by Resolution Nos. 2019-694 and 2019-695, respectively, approved by the City Council on September 5, 2019. The rates charged to the City's customers for water service include: 1) a volumetric or flow charge that is based on metered water consumption where the flow charge increases at certain intervals (blocks); and 2) a base charge based on the customer's meter size or number of residential units. For the Wastewater System, all customers are charged a base charge and residential customers pay a usage charge based on metered water consumption limited by a sewer maximum amount (a sewer cap) which is based on each customer’s historic usage. Non-residential customers pay a wastewater usage charge based on one hundred percent (100%) of metered water usage. The City bills in units equal to one hundred (100) cubic feet of water ("CCF") which is equivalent to 748 gallons of water. Beginning with the adoption of Resolution Nos. 2019-694 and 2019-695, the City established a monthly base charge for water and wastewater service. The adopted monthly base charges that were 48 effective on and after October 1, 2023, equal $6.00 per month per equivalent residential unit ("ERU") or metered connection for each utility service or $12.00 a month for a typical single-family residential customer with water and wastewater service. The monthly base charges for water and wastewater service as adopted, will increase by $1.00 per ERU per Fiscal Year through October 1, 2033, when the adopted monthly base charges shall equal $16.00 per ERU for each utility service, or $32.00 per combined water and wastewater services. The monthly base charge is also applicable to any separately metered irrigation service.

Water Connection Fees On October 15, 2020, City Council adopted Ordinance 2020-104 approving a Water Connection Fee (i.e. impact fee) for customers wanting to connect to the Water System that was implemented over a three year period through March 1, 2023. The City charges all new developments a Water Connection Fee to recover the allocable capital cost of the water capacity assigned to such new customer/property. Generally, under Florida law, the use of Water Connection Fees is limited to: 1) payment for System expansion-related facilities; or 2) payment of debt service for obligations issued to finance or refinance the acquisition or construction of System expansion facilities. Water connection fees are based on the number of equivalent residential units ("ERU’s") and are reviewed every five years and updated, if determined necessary. The schedule of Water Connection Fee per one ERU is listed below: Effective March 1, 2023 Non-CIAC Areas, per ERU $1,713.00 CIAC Areas, per ERU 1,020.00 Affordable Housing 0.00 Source: Ordinance 2020-104. The Financial Feasibility Report attached hereto as APPENDIX E includes revenues associated with adopted new Water Connections Fees in the analysis. It is not expected that Water Connection Fees will be used to pay debt service on the 2024 Bonds. See "PROJECTED OPERATING RESULTS" herein. Additionally, the City has adopted a fee schedule for water meter installation and meter connection services in order to recover the cost of physically connecting water customers to the System’s potable water utility facilities and to recover distribution system costs. In addition to water meter connection charges and water meter installation charges, the City also charges an application fee. These 57 fees are considered to be Gross Revenues and are not considered Water Connection Fees for purposes of the Bond Resolution. Wastewater Connection Fees Customers wanting to connect to the Wastewater System pay a Wastewater Connection Fee (i.e. wastewater impact fee) pursuant to the City of Tampa Municipal Code. Prior to March 1, 2021, this fee was based on the size and number of water meters providing potable water service to pay for capital improvements associated with sewer treatment capacity and large transmission pipelines. On October 15, 2020, City Council adopted Ordinance 2020-104 approving a single rate city-wide (no districts) of $1,237.00 per ERU, effective March 1, 2021. The City charges all new developments a Wastewater Connection Fee to recover the allocable capital cost of the wastewater capacity assigned to such new customer/property. Generally, under Florida law, the use of Wastewater Connection Fees is limited to: 1) payment for System expansion-related facilities; or 2) payment of debt service for obligations issued to finance or refinance the acquisition or construction of System expansion facilities. The City has identified expansion related projects for which a portion of the Wastewater Connection Fees collected are considered as being legally available to pay for the related debt service on the Bonds. Effective March 1, 2021 City-wide, per ERU $1,237.00 Affordable Housing $0.00 Source: Ordinance 2020-104. The Financial Feasibility Report attached hereto as APPENDIX E includes revenues associated with the adopted Wastewater Connections Fees in the analysis. It is not expected that Wastewater Connection Fees will be used to pay debt service on the 2024 Bonds. See "PROJECTED OPERATING RESULTS" herein.

[Remainder of page intentionally left blank] 60 Rate Comparisons The monthly bills for the various Florida utilities used for the comparison are exclusive of local taxes. Additionally, for municipally owned utility systems, such utilities may apply, to customers located outside the corporate limits of such municipality, a surcharge of up to 25% when compared to the rates for service to customers located within the corporate limits as allowed pursuant to Section 180.191, Florida Statutes. The 5/8 x 3/4 inch meter or smaller comparison was prepared since this represents the majority of the System's water and wastewater residential customers and the majority of the customers for the other utilities reflected in the comparisons. The City's rates for the average customer are lower than the current rates charged by other neighboring utilities for the same level of water and wastewater. A comparison of water and wastewater rates at the monthly consumption level of 6,000 gallons (the average usage of a City single-family residential user is 8 CCF or approximately 6,000 gallons) between the City and the utilities surveyed is shown as follows: Comparison of Monthly Water and Wastewater Service Single Metered Residential Service for a 5/8" or 3/4" Meter at 6,000 Gallons(1) City of Tampa Water Wastewater Total Existing Rates(2) $31.74 $33.30 $65.04 Adopted– Fiscal Year 2025 35.56 35.10 70.66 Adopted – Fiscal Year 2026 38.26 36.95 75.21 Adopted– Fiscal Year 2027 39.58 38.80 78.38 Adopted – Fiscal Year 2028 40.90 40.70 81.60 Adopted – Fiscal Year 2029 42.22 42.60 84.82 Florida Counties: Hillsborough County $42.91 $55.45 $98.36 Manatee County 28.76 65.71 94.47 Miami-Dade County 23.37 45.23 68.60 Pasco County 24.08 62.07 86.15 Pinellas County 36.73 54.98 91.70 Polk County 26.09 75.02 101.11 Sarasota County 39.34 84.95 124.29 Florida Cities: Clearwater $60.69 $75.42 $136.11 Jacksonville (JEA) 20.40 45.96 66.36 Lakeland 24.78 48.55 73.33 Orlando/OUC 16.00 56.88 72.88 Plant City 22.76 58.66 81.42 St. Petersburg 47.90 82.36 130.26 Tallahassee(3) 25.52 69.56 95.08 Temple Terrace 21.83 72.70 94.53 Survey Average $30.74 $63.57 $94.31 [Footnotes continued on next page] 61 (1) Unless otherwise noted, amounts shown reflect residential rates exclusive of taxes or franchise fees, if any, and reflect rates charged for inside the City service area.

(4) Based on discussions with City staff, certain adjustments were made to account for future inflation and to recognize additional personnel and operating expenses associated with implementing the City's proposed capital projects. Operating Expenses were projected to increase approximately 4.9% per year on average over the Forecast Period. (5) Pursuant to the Bond Resolution, all Connection Fees are pledged to the repayment of the Bonds. Under Florida Law, Connection Fees may only be used to pay debt service on Bonds that financed or refinanced expansion- related capital improvements under the terms of the Bond Resolution. If Connection Fees are used to pay debt service on Bonds that were not expansion-related, the City is required to repay the applicable Connection Fees Fund from Net Revenues as provided in the Bond Resolution. Based on discussions with City staff, only the amount of projected Wastewater Connection Fees is considered as being available to pay the debt service on the Bonds allocable to Wastewater System expansion. No Water Connection Fees are anticipated to be legally available to pay debt service on the 2024 Bonds. Future wastewater system customer growth was assumed to be approximately 0.5% per year. (6) For the purpose of debt service calculation, pursuant to the Bond Resolution, payments due on October 1 are considered to be due and payable on the immediately preceding September 30 for purposes of the definition of Annual Debt Service. Includes anticipated bond issuances in the Fiscal Years 2024 through and including 2029. See "DEBT SERVICE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE BONDS" herein for debt service on the 2024 Bonds and the Parity Bonds. (7) The rate covenant set forth in the Bond Resolution requires that in each Fiscal Year: A) Net Revenues and Connection Fees must equal at least 120% of the Annual Debt Service of the senior lien Bonds; and B) Net Revenues only must equal at least 100% of the Annual Debt Service of the senior lien Bonds and any other required payments. No other required payments under the Bond Resolution were identified for the Forecast Period ending September 30, 2029. (8) Amounts derived based on Net Revenues with Connection Fees divided by senior lien Annual Debt Service. (9) Amounts derived based on Net Revenues without Connection Fees divided by senior lien Annual Debt Service. (10) For subordinate lien Debt Service, the amounts were based on the principal and interest payments becoming due in each Fiscal Year. (11) Subordinate lien annual debt service includes projected outstanding FDEP Loans, which require a 1.15 coverage ratio after payment of senior lien Bonds.

The City has identified approximately $1.11 billion in Water System capital expenditures for the Forecast Period ending September 30, 2029. The City has identified approximately $721.7 million in Wastewater System capital expenditures for the Forecast Period ending September 30, 2029. Based on an analysis of funds available to the City, the funding sources for the CIP were assumed to be funded using a combination of existing operating and construction fund reserves, proceeds of proposed future Additional Bonds, including the 2024 Bonds, and future net cash flow after payment of Bonds and Subordinated Indebtedness as well as other reserves and revenues specified by the City. The projected Net Revenues available for capital expenditures are based on existing water and wastewater rates.

The City should be able to retain and renew current permits for the System so long as operations, maintenance, and permit reporting continue as demonstrated in the past five- year period. 2. To the Consulting Engineer's knowledge, the City is in compliance with all federal and state regulatory requirements relating to the provisions of water and wastewater services, and there are no other outstanding orders requiring corrective actions issued by any regulatory agency relating to any component of the currently owned System aside from what is included in the Consulting Engineer's Report. 3. Based on the water facility capacities, planned facility expansions, and the anticipated water demands in Consulting Engineer’s Report, the City has sufficient water supplies to meet its anticipated service needs through at least 2035. The planned facility expansion projects will increase the permitted capacity from 120.0 MGD to 140.0 MGD and have CIP funds included for Fiscal Years 2024 through 2029. 4. Based on the City’s permitted access to several water supply sources and its ASR system, the City can adeptly manage and respond to seasonal water supply challenges. As a Member Government of Tampa Bay Water, the City can purchase potable water from Tampa Bay Water when its water supply resources have been exhausted and continue to meet its current and future water demands. The City has a diverse portfolio of water supply to serve its water customers now and into the future. 5. Based on available wastewater treatment facility capacities and anticipated wastewater flow projections, the City’s facilities will have sufficient wastewater treatment capacity to treat anticipated flows through at least 2035. 6. Based on above-ground inspections of the City facilities and discussions with City staff, the existing facilities appear to be in overall relatively good condition. The facilities are in comparable condition to facilities of similar age. The water and wastewater facilities require some improvements and projects are underway to address these needs. 7. The System facilities appear adequately operated and maintained, and the City is taking steps to continue prudent utility practice as described throughout the Consulting Engineers Report. Therefore, the City appears to be capable of providing sufficient and reliable water and wastewater service to its customers through the years pertinent to the 2024 Bonds. 8. The City’s CIP projects are necessary and adequate to meet the current regulatory requirements and to provide reliable water and wastewater service to the City’s existing 69 customers, and to provide adequate reserve capacity for the anticipated growth in utility customers, as discussed in the Consulting Engineers Report. Financial Feasibility Consultant The conclusions of Raftelis Financial Consultants, Inc., the Financial Feasibility Consultant for the System, set forth in their Financial Feasibility Report included in APPENDIX E hereto, which such Report should be read in its entirety, are set forth below: 1. The projected growth in System revenues for Fiscal Years 2024 through 2029 is based on the adopted water and wastewater rates for the Forecast Period. See APPENDIX E attached hereto for a detailed explanation of the City’s adopted rates. A 0.5% annual increase in revenue for customer growth was assumed for the Water and Wastewater Systems during the Forecast Period ending September 30, 2029. The projected growth in System customers and applicable usage during the Forecast Period for the System represents reasonable and attainable projections based on discussions with the City and on recent trends in customers served/billed. 2. The projected Operating Expenses reflect the City’s current wage and salary plan and inflationary allowances for other Operating Expenses and as such represent reasonable and attainable projections based on discussions with the City and on recent trends in customers served/billed. 3. The Gross Revenues for September 30, 2024 through and including 2029 under the City adopted rates and charges for the Forecast Period should be sufficient to pay all projected Operating Expenses of the System, pay the estimated Annual Debt Service on all Bonds (including the 2024 Bonds), pay the Subordinated Indebtedness including the FDEP Loans, make all additional deposits as required by the Bond Resolution, and meet the rate covenant of the Bond Resolution. 4. The projected debt service coverage of the System as presented in the Feasibility Report should be in compliance with the rate covenant contained in the Bond Resolution and with respect to Subordinated Indebtedness including the FDEP Loans. The forecast of projected operating results is considered by Financial Feasibility Consultant as being reasonable and attainable and provides a basis for the City to meet the rate covenant as delineated in the Bond Resolution. A summary of the assumptions and considerations relied upon in the development of the forecast of projected operating results are included in APPENDIX E attached hereto. INVESTMENT CONSIDERATIONS The future financial condition of the System could be affected adversely by, among other things, public health emergencies, legislation, environmental and other regulatory actions, changes in demand for services, economic conditions, demographic changes, hurricanes, droughts and litigation. In particular, some of the possible changes in the future may include, but not be limited to, the following: 1. Legislative Risks. There can be no assurance that legislation or other proposals will not be introduced or enacted in the future that would, or might apply to, or have a material adverse effect upon, the City's finances or the Pledged Funds. 70 2. Risks Related to Renewal of Permits. There is no assurance that permits for operation of major components of the System will be renewed or can be renewed without the expenditure of moneys from the Renewal and Replacement Fund or the issuance of Additional Bonds or Subordinated Indebtedness. Further, there is no assurance that the requirements for renewal of the permits will remain the same prior to the time that renewal is required; a change in requirements could require additional expenditures for improvements. 3. Environmental Risk. The environmental aspects of the System are regulated by (a) the USEPA; (b) FDEP under Chapter 403, Florida Statutes, and the rules and regulations promulgated by FDEP; (c) the SWFWMD; (d) the United States Army Corps of Engineers; and (e) the Hillsborough County Health Department. FDEP is principal regulator of water and wastewater utilities in Florida. The SWFWMD regulates water withdrawals for potable water providers such as the City. The City is subject to federal and state water treatment and wastewater disposal requirements which, among other things, limit raw water withdrawals, control contaminants in finished water, limit discharges of pollutants into surface and ground waters, regulate the quality of effluent discharged from sewage treatment facilities, and limit the nature of waste materials discharged into the collection facilities. The City is also subject to federal, state and local waste disposal requirements, which control the means of disposal solids generated by sewage treatment plants. There are no assurances that these agencies will not increase their present environmental or other regulatory standards. Environmental requirements in general are becoming more stringent and further or new requirements may substantially increase the cost of water or wastewater service by requiring changes in the design or operation of existing or new facilities. Future changes in policy could result in discontinued operation, reduced capacity of the System, additional operations or capital expenditures, or a reduction in the revenue received by the System. Further, while the City undertakes to operate the System in a professional manner and in compliance with all regulatory requirements, there is no assurance that the System facilities now or in the future will always be maintained in compliance with current or future regulatory requirements. Failure to comply with those requirements could result in enforcement action against those facilities not in compliance which, under Federal and Florida law, can include the imposition of civil and criminal penalties. 4. Weather-Related Events. The State is naturally susceptible to the effects of extreme weather events and natural disasters including floods, droughts, and hurricanes, which could result in negative economic impacts on coastal communities such as the City. Such effects can be exacerbated by changes in the climate. The occurrence of such extreme weather events could damage the local infrastructure that provides essential services to the City. The economic impacts resulting from such extreme weather events could include a loss of property values, a decline in revenue base, and escalated recovery costs. No assurance can be given as to whether future extreme weather events will occur that could materially impair the financial condition of the City. However, to mitigate against such impacts, the City has implemented the following: • Based on the City's permitted access to several water supply sources and its aquifer storage and recovery system, the City is able to adeptly manage and respond to seasonal water supply challenges. • Established by policy, applicable to the Water, Wastewater and Solid Waste departments, required reserves of at least 90-days of operating expenses. 71 • Purchased a specific insurance policy for the DLTWTF and the HFCAWTP with a per occurrence limit of $150 million and a $60 million sublimit for named windstorms, including storm surge. This policy includes business interruption. • Currently constructing the installation of a permanent standby power generator at the Krause Street Pump Station which will provide continuous operations of the station during a loss of power avoiding sanitary sewer overflows. • Currently constructing the installation of a permanent standby power generator at the Ybor City Pump Station which will provide continuous operations of the station during a loss of power avoiding sanitary sewer overflows. • Currently designing a new permanent standby power generator facility at the DLTWTF which will provide an increased electrical capacity to sustain water treatment during loss of power events. • Additionally, the Mayor has stated strong cities are built on a sustainable and resilient foundation and need to prioritize policies and initiatives that will protect our future, which led to the establishment of the following: (i) Hiring the City's first Sustainability and Resiliency Officer and established a Sustainability and Resilience Advisory team to find ways to build a stronger, greener and more resilient city; (ii) Developed both a Tampa Climate Action and Equity Plan and Resilience Roadmap to make the City more resilient and sustainable; (iii) Tackling Stormwater Management and Sea Level Rise; (iv) Committing to net zero emissions by 2050; (v) City Council passed a non-binding resolution for 100% renewable energy by 2035 and the City administration developed, in June 2023, a renewable municipal energy plan that establishes a goal and a year for transitioning the City’s municipal operations to 100% renewable energy; and (vi) Ensuring Environmental Justice. 5. Hurricanes. Hurricane Ian made landfall in southwest Florida on August 28, 2022, and on August 20, 2023, Hurricane Idalia made landfall near Keaton Beach, Florida. Both hurricanes passed through the State of Florida. In preparation for Ian’s and Idalia’s potential impacts, the City implemented our storm preparation plans which included the activation Emergency Operations Center and the City’s three emergency response centers ("ERC"). The ERCs are comprised of City employees who remain in the ERC during the event in preparation for clearing roadways of storm debris to allow emergency vehicles passage after the storm passes through Tampa. Additionally, the City prepositioned fire and police personnel through the City along with staff of the HFCAWTP and the DLTWTF to maintain each plant’s operations during the event. 72 Hurricane Ian resulted in approximately $11.1 million in costs to the City, primarily storm preparation activation costs, debris cleanup, and minor repairs to City facilities/assets. Hurricane Idalia resulted in minimal damage to the City; however, costs were primarily incurred to prepare for Idalia. On October 6, 2022, Tampa City Council approved a resolution appropriating $6.0 million in funding from the City’s General Fund Emergency Reserves and $1.0 million from Solid Waste Reserves to provide initial funding to fund the City’s storm preparation and for debris removal. The City was able to replenish the $6.0 million used from the General Fund’s Emergency Reserves with Fiscal Year 2022 net revenues. The City is currently coordinating with Federal Emergency Management Agency ("FEMA") and the Florida Department of Emergency Management (FDEM) with the City’s Request for Public Assistance. The City anticipates receiving approximately $10.5 million from FEMA and $0.3 million from the State of Florida. The City’s matching portion will be $0.3 million. On October 5, 2023, Tampa City Council approved a resolution appropriating $5.0 million in funding from the City’s General Fund Emergency Reserves to provide initial funding to fund the City’s storm preparation and for debris removal. The City was able to replenish the $5.0 million used from the Emergency Reserves with Fiscal Year 2023 net revenues. Subsequently, the City has revised the estimated costs from Hurricane Idalia down to $3.2 million. The City is currently coordinating with FEMA and the FDEM with the City’s Request for Public Assistance. The City anticipates receiving approximately $2.4 million from FEMA and $0.4 million from the State of Florida. The City’s matching portion will be $0.4 million. Hurricane Debby made landfall on August 5, 2024, near Steinhatchee, Florida in north Florida as a Category 1 Hurricane. Debby passed to the west of the City delivering heavy rains. Estimated costs to the City are approximately $1.5 million consisting primarily for storm preparation activities, minor damage to several City facilities, and repair of one brick road. The City did not qualify for FEMA public assistance so all costs will be borne by the City’s General Fund’s Emergency Reserves. The City anticipates replenishing these funds from Fiscal Year 2024 General Fund Net Revenues. See "THE SYSTEM – Wastewater System – FDEP Issues" herein for more information. Hurricane Helene made landfall on September 26, 2024 near Perry, Florida, which is approximately 175 miles north northwest of Tampa, as a Category 4 Hurricane. The City has a very proactive emergency management plan and response to natural disasters such as hurricanes. It has also made significant capital investments in the System in recent years which have made City assets including the System more resilient to natural disasters such as hurricanes. For the City, it was primarily a storm surge event, of 5-8 feet, affecting certain low-lying areas within the City. Most of the City was not impacted by storm surge, and damage in the City from rain and wind is not anticipated to be significant. The City and the System generally fared well. The System did turn on standby generators to supplement power during the storm but was back to purchasing 100 percent of its power from Tampa Electric Company the morning after the storm. The City’s water system fared well during and after the storm with no operational disruptions. While the wastewater system largely functioned throughout the storm, as a result of Helene, the City’s wastewater system did experience some-short-term operational issues in areas impacted by storm surge. In particular, six (6) wastewater pump stations along and near the 73 Hillsborough River (out of 229 in the System) were offline for less than one day due to storm surge and electrical issues, and preliminary estimates are that less than 9 MG of untreated wastewater were discharged into the Hillsborough River and Hillsborough Bay from ten (10) overflows. The System pumps approximately 60 MGD of untreated wastewater, so this represented approximately 15 percent of daily pumping. Within 4 days of the event, the City reported such unauthorized spills to FDEP as has been its historical practice. City-wide, there may be some damage to roadways, bridges, seawalls, and other City facilities, as well as debris removal in the near future, mainly in the low-lying areas of the City which were affected by storm surge. Based on past experience, the unpermitted sanitary sewer overflows may result in regulatory action by FDEP in the future. While it is too early to estimate costs associated with the storm, the City has ample reserves in the System to fund any expected storm-related costs relating to the System. The City will seek public assistance from the Federal Emergency Management Agency and the Florida Department of Emergency Management to replenish some or all of its expenses. The City expects to have sufficient resources to meet its storm-related financial obligations even if public assistance is unavailable, and the City does not expect the financial impacts of Hurricane Helene to impact its ability to pay debt service on the Bonds. Hurricane Milton made landfall at approximately 8:30 P.M. on October 9, 2024, near Siesta Key, Florida, which is approximately 47 miles south of Tampa, as a Category 3 Hurricane with sustained winds of 120 miles per hour. The Tampa area experienced widespread power outages and extreme rainfall amounts. The City was not impacted by storm surge. The City and the System fared well. The System did turn on standby generators to supplement power during the storm but was back to purchasing 100 percent of its power from Tampa Electric Company (“TECO”) for the HFCAWTP and the DLTWTF by the morning after the storm. The City’s water system fared well during and after the storm with no unusual operational disruptions. The City of Tampa water is safe for use. The 1.5-MG elevated storage tank at West Tampa used for storing treated water was damaged during the storm and has been taken off-line. In the short-term, the water system nevertheless has adequate storage and water pressure without needing such tank. In the next several months, after evaluating options, the City will either repair such tank or instead replace it with additional high service pumping. While the wastewater system functioned throughout the storm, because of Hurricane Milton, the City’s wastewater system did experience short-term operational issues in areas impacted by power outages and excessive rainfall. As of the date hereof, approximately 80 wastewater pump stations (out of 229 in total) are currently without TECO generated power, and the City is running such pump stations from permanent or portable generators to mitigate overflows. For several hours during the storm, untreated wastewater did overflow from the Primary Tanks, which ceased in the early morning hours after the storm made landfall. The Primary Tanks remove the easily settable solids in the wastewater treatment process. An estimate of the amount of secondary treated wastewater that was discharged into Hillsborough Bay is still being calculated. Within 4 days of the event, the City expects to report such unauthorized spills to FDEP as has been its historical practice. Based on experience, the unpermitted sanitary sewer overflows may result in regulatory action by FDEP in the future. City-wide, there may be some damage to roadways, bridges, seawalls, and other City facilities, as well as debris removal, and there is still a risk to City residents and System customers of river flooding within the City given the extensive upstream rain amounts resulting from the storm. The City does not expect any such potential river flooding to impact the System in a materially adverse manner. While it is too early to estimate costs associated with Hurricanes Milton or Helene, the City has ample reserves in the System to fund any expected storm-related costs relating to the System. The City will seek public assistance from the Federal Emergency Management Agency and the Florida Department of Emergency Management to replenish some or all expenses. The City expects to have sufficient resources to meet its storm-related financial obligations even if public assistance is 74 unavailable, and the City does not expect the financial impacts of Hurricanes Milton and Helene to impact its ability to pay debt service on the Bonds. The duties of the Sustainability and Resilience Officer includes implementing the City’s Resilience Roadmap, developing a Climate Action and Equity Plan, tackling stormwater management and sea level rise, transitioning the City to 100% renewable energy, and ensuring citywide environmental justice for all residents. On December 9, 2020, the Mayor announced the Sustainability and Resiliency Advisory Team to help with implementing the Resilience Roadmap and developing the Climate Action and Equity Plan. The Resilience Roadmap was developed through robust community engagement and with the assistance of international experts from the Resilient Cities Catalyst organization. The official Resilient Tampa Roadmap was released in May 2021 (https://www.tampa.gov/green-tampa/resilience). 6. Cybersecurity. The City, like many other governmental entities, relies on a technology environment to conduct its operations. As such, it may face multiple cybersecurity threats including but not limited to, hacking, viruses, malware and other attacks on computer or other sensitive digital systems and networks. The City uses a defense in depth methodology to protect its assets. The City monitors and maintains security compliance through a series of Criminal Justice Information Services Division, Payment Card Industry, external and internal audits, with penetration testing by third parties. The City has partnered with Risk Management to establish an insurance policy to address the needs that come with an intrusion event. There can be no assurance that any security and operational control measures implemented by the City will be completely successful to guard against and prevent cyber threats and attacks. The result of any such attack could impact operations and/or digital networks and the costs of remedying any such damage could be significant. Additionally, during the 2022 Florida Legislative session, CS/HB 7055 was passed which requires State agencies and local governments, such as the City, to report all ransomware incidents and high severity level cybersecurity incidents to the Cybersecurity Operations Center ("CSOC") and the Cybercrime Office within the Florida Department of Law Enforcement as soon as possible but no later than 48 hours after discovery of the cybersecurity incident and no later than 12 hours after discovery of a ransomware incident. Local governments must also report to the sheriff. CS/HB 7055 requires state agencies to report low level cybersecurity incidents and provides that local governments may report such incidents. It also requires state agencies and local governments to submit after-action reports to FLDS following a cybersecurity or ransomware incident. CS/HB 7055 requires the CSOC to notify the Legislature of high severity level cybersecurity incidents. State agency and local government employees are required to undergo certain cybersecurity training within 30 days of employment and annually thereafter. Further, local governments are required to adopt cybersecurity standards that safeguard the local government's data, information technology ("IT"), and IT resources. The effective date of CS/HB 7055 was July 1, 2022. 7. Future Public Health Emergency. The outbreak of the highly contagious COVID-19 pandemic in the United States that occurred March 2020 had a negative financial impact on local, state and national economies around the globe, including initially significantly increased unemployment in certain sectors including especially travel, hospitality and restaurants. This led to quarantine, remote work and other "social distancing" measures throughout the United States which resulted in a period of less travel resulting in declines in certain revenue sources. While many of the effects of COVID-19 were temporary, it altered the behavior of businesses and people in a manner resulting in negative impacts on global and local economies, including supply chain issues and rising inflation. 75 This section does not purport to summarize all risks that may be associated with purchasing or owning the 2024 Bonds and prospective purchasers are advised to read this Official Statement in its entirety for a more complete description of investment considerations relating to the 2024 Bonds. INVESTMENT POLICY The City's investment policy applies to all funds held by the City other than pension fund assets and bond related accounts. The investment objective of the City is to invest funds in safe, liquid, minimum risk instruments that will provide the maximum amount of interest earnings. During the March 2019 primary election, voters amended the City's Charter in regards to its investment policy. The charter amendment now allows the City broader authority to invest any funds in any manner allowed by Section 215.47, Florida Statutes (as it may be amended from time to time) with the exception that the City may not invest in mortgage securities which represent participation in, or are collateralized by, mortgage loans secured by real property. The City's investment policy is to promote investments that enable it to meet its day-to-day requirements. Investments will be made in accordance with known/anticipated cash needs and cash flow requirement. The City's current investment policy is available at tampa.gov/budget/info/FY2024-Budget, and may be modified from time to time. LEGAL MATTERS Certain legal matters in connection with the issuance of the 2024 Bonds are subject to an approving legal opinion of Nabors, Giblin & Nickerson, P.A., Tampa, Florida, Bond Counsel, whose approving opinion (a form of which is attached hereto as "APPENDIX F – Form of Bond Counsel Opinion") will be available at the time of delivery of the 2024 Bonds. The actual legal opinion to be delivered by Bond Counsel may vary from that text if necessary to reflect facts and law on the date of delivery. Such opinion will speak only as of its date, and subsequent distribution of it by recirculation of this Official Statement or otherwise shall create no implication that Bond Counsel has reviewed or expresses any opinion concerning any of the matters referenced in the opinion subsequent to its date. Bond Counsel has not been engaged to, nor has it undertaken to, review (1) the accuracy, completeness or sufficiency of this Official Statement or any other offering material relating to the 2024 Bonds; provided, however, that Bond Counsel will render an opinion to the Underwriters of the 2024 Bonds (upon which opinion only the Underwriters may rely) relating to the fairness of the presentation of certain statements which summarize provisions of the Bond Resolution, the 2024 Bonds, and federal tax law, and (2) the compliance with any federal or state law with regard to the sale or distribution of the 2024 Bonds. Certain legal matters will be passed upon by the City Attorney's Office and by Bryant Miller Olive P.A., Tampa, Florida, Disclosure Counsel to the City. Certain legal matters will be passed upon for the Underwriters by Squire Patton Boggs (US) LLP. 76 LITIGATION There is no pending or, to the knowledge of the City, any threatened litigation against the City of any nature whatsoever which in any way questions or affects the validity of the 2024 Bonds, or any proceedings or transactions relating to their issuance, sale, execution, or delivery, or the adoption of the Bond Resolution, or, except as described below, the collection of Pledged Funds. Neither the creation, organization or existence, nor the title of the present members of the City Council, or other officers of the City is being contested. At present, the City has pending the following cases: Liberty Hospitality Management, LLC v City of Tampa: In May 2022, City Council denied a rezoning amendment to the Harbour Island DRI for 800 S. Harbour Island Drive, which sought to rezone a property currently used an office to a 145-room hotel. A FLUEDRA Mediation was held in August 2022, but in December 2022, the City Council denied the proposed settlement. Liberty filed a Writ of Certiorari (22-CA-5055) wherein Plaintiff alleged that the City’s decision to deny the rezoning was not based on competent substantial evidence. The court requested additional briefing regarding subject matter jurisdiction. Liberty also filed a separate action (23-CA-1082) also assigned to Circuit Division E that alleged a Bert Harris action in which Liberty claims $6.6 million in damages (difference between purchase price and value of land with the hotel on it). On July 28, 2024, the Circuit Court issued an Order denying the Writ of Cert for lack of Subject Matter Jurisdiction. On August 28, 2024, the City and Liberty, in separate actions, appealed the Court’s decision in 22-CA-5055. The second tier Writ filed by Liberty has been given case number 2D2024-2035. The appeal filed by the City is awaiting the assignment of a case number. The appeal will stay the Bert Harris case. Manhattan Avenue LLC v City of Tampa: In 2023, the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida dismissed a case against the City of Tampa. Manhattan Avenue LLC ("Manhattan"), a property owner that purchased part of a property that was a former City landfill refiled this case in State Court (23-CA-15073). Manhattan alleges damages against the City for potential contamination to the property. The amount of the damage claim is unknown. The City does not believe that the claim has merit because the site is a legally compliant, closed historic landfill that does not pose a threat to public health and notice of the fact that the property in question had been operated as a landfill by the City was properly recorded in the Public Records of Hillsborough County. The City experiences claims, litigation, and various legal proceedings which, except as otherwise described above, individually are not expected to have a material adverse effect on the operations or financial condition of the City, but may, in the aggregate, have a material impact thereon. Except as described above, in the opinion of the City Attorney, however, the City will either successfully defend such actions or otherwise resolve such matters without any material adverse consequences on the financial condition of the City. In any event, the City does not expect any potential liability in connection with these matters to impact its ability to pay debt service on the 2024 Bonds. DISCLOSURE REQUIRED BY FLORIDA BLUE SKY REGULATIONS Pursuant to Section 517.051, Florida Statutes, as amended, no person may directly or indirectly offer or sell securities of the City except by an offering circular containing full and fair disclosure of all defaults as to principal or interest on its obligations since December 31, 1975, as provided by rule of the Office of Financial Regulation within the Florida Financial Services Commission (the "FFSC"). Pursuant 77 to administrative rulemaking, the FFSC has required the disclosure of the amounts and types of defaults, any legal proceedings resulting from such defaults, whether a trustee or receiver has been appointed over the assets of the City, and certain additional financial information, unless the City believes in good faith that such information would not be considered material by a reasonable investor. The City is not and has not been in default on any bond issued since December 31, 1975 that would be considered material by a reasonable investor. The City has not undertaken an independent review or investigation of securities for which it has served as conduit issuer. The City does not believe that any information about any default on such securities is appropriate and would be considered material by a reasonable investor in the 2024 Bonds because the City would not have been obligated to pay the debt service on any such securities except from payments made to it by the private companies on whose behalf such securities were issued and no funds of the City would have been pledged or used to pay such securities or the interest thereon. TAX MATTERS Opinion of Bond Counsel In the opinion of Bond Counsel, the form of which is included as APPENDIX F hereto, the interest on the 2024 Bonds is excludable from gross income of the owners thereof for federal income tax purposes and is not an item of tax preference for purposes of the federal alternative minimum tax under existing statutes, regulations, rulings and court decisions; provided, however, with respect to certain corporations, interest on the 2024 Bonds is taken into account in determining the annual adjusted financial statement income for the purpose of computing the alternative minimum tax imposed on such corporations. Failure by the City to comply subsequent to the issuance of the 2024 Bonds with certain requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), including but not limited to requirements regarding the use, expenditure and investment of Bond proceeds and the timely payment of certain investment earnings to the Treasury of the United States, may cause interest on the 2024 Bonds to become includable in gross income for federal income tax purposes retroactive to their date of issuance. The City has covenanted in the Bond Resolution to comply with all provisions of the Code necessary to, among other things, maintain the exclusion from gross income of interest on the 2024 Bonds for purposes of federal income taxation. In rendering its opinion, Bond Counsel has assumed continuing compliance with such covenants. Internal Revenue Code of 1986 The Code contains a number of provisions that apply to the 2024 Bonds, including, among other things, restrictions relating to the use or investment of the proceeds of the 2024 Bonds and the payment of certain arbitrage earnings in excess of the "yield" on the 2024 Bonds to the Treasury of the United States of America. Noncompliance with such provisions may result in interest on the 2024 Bonds being included in gross income for federal income tax purposes retroactive to their date of issuance. Collateral Tax Consequences Except as described above, Bond Counsel will express no opinion regarding the federal income tax consequences resulting from the ownership of, receipt or accrual of interest on, or disposition of, the 2024 Bonds. Prospective purchasers of 2024 Bonds should be aware that the ownership of 2024 Bonds may result in other collateral federal tax consequences. For example, ownership of the 2024 Bonds may 78 result in collateral tax consequences to various types of corporations relating to (1) denial of interest deduction to purchase or carry such Bonds, (2) the branch profits tax, and (3) the inclusion of interest on the 2024 Bonds in passive income for certain Subchapter S corporations. In addition, the interest on the 2024 Bonds may be included in gross income by recipients of certain Social Security and Railroad Retirement benefits. PURCHASE, OWNERSHIP, SALE OR DISPOSITION OF THE 2024 BONDS AND THE RECEIPT OR ACCRUAL OF THE INTEREST THEREON MAY HAVE ADVERSE FEDERAL TAX CONSEQUENCES FOR CERTAIN INDIVIDUAL AND CORPORATE BONDHOLDERS, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE CONSEQUENCES REFERRED TO ABOVE. PROSPECTIVE BONDHOLDERS SHOULD CONSULT WITH THEIR TAX ADVISORS FOR INFORMATION IN THAT REGARD Other Tax Matters Interest on the 2024 Bonds may be subject to state or local income taxation under applicable state or local laws in other jurisdictions. Purchasers of the 2024 Bonds should consult their own tax advisors as to the income tax status of interest on the 2024 Bonds in their particular state or local jurisdictions. The Inflation Reduction Act, H.R. 5376 (the IRA), was passed by both houses of the U.S. Congress and was signed by the President on August 16, 2022. As enacted, the IRA includes a 15 percent alternative minimum tax to be imposed on the "adjusted financial statement income," as defined in the IRA, of certain corporations for tax years beginning after December 31, 2022. Interest on the 2024 Bonds will be included in the "adjusted financial statement income" of such corporations for purposes of computing the corporate alternative minimum tax. Prospective purchasers that could be subject to this minimum tax should consult with their own tax advisors regarding the potential tax consequences of owning the 2024 Bonds. During recent years, legislative proposals have been introduced in Congress, and in some cases enacted, that altered certain federal tax consequences resulting from the ownership of obligations that are similar to the 2024 Bonds. In some cases, such proposals have contained provisions that altered these federal tax consequences on a retroactive basis. Such alterations of federal tax consequences may have affected the market value of obligations similar to the 2024 Bonds. From time to time, legislative proposals are pending which could have an effect on both the federal tax consequences resulting from ownership of the 2024 Bonds and their market value. No assurance can be given that additional legislative proposals will not be introduced or enacted that would or might apply to, or have an adverse effect upon, the 2024 Bonds. Original Issue Premium All of the 2024 Bonds (the "Premium Bonds") may be offered and sold to the public at an initial offering price in excess of the principal amount of such Premium Bond, which excess constitutes to an initial purchaser amortizable bond premium which is not deductible from gross income for Federal income tax purposes. The amount of amortizable bond premium for a taxable year is determined actuarially on a constant interest rate basis over the term of the Premium Bonds which term ends on the earlier of the maturity or call date for each Premium Bond which minimizes the yield on said Premium Bonds to the purchaser. For purposes of determining gain or loss on the sale or other disposition of a Premium Bond, an initial purchaser who acquires such obligation in the initial offering to the public at 79 the initial offering price is required to decrease such purchaser's adjusted basis in such Premium Bond annually by the amount of amortizable bond premium for the taxable year. The amortization of bond premium may be taken into account as a reduction in the amount of tax-exempt income for purposes of determining various other tax consequences of owning such Premium Bonds. The federal income tax consequences of the purchase, ownership and sale or other disposition of Premium Bonds which are not purchased in the initial offering at the initial offering price may be determined according to rules which differ from those described above. Owners of the Premium Bonds are advised that they should consult with their own tax advisors with respect to the state and local tax consequences of owning such Premium Bonds. RATINGS Moody's Investors Service, Inc. ("Moody's), S&P Global Ratings ("S&P") and Fitch Ratings, Inc. ("Fitch") are expected to assign ratings of "Aaa" (stable outlook), "AAA" (stable outlook) and "AAA" (stable outlook), respectively, to the 2024 Bonds. The ratings reflect only the views of said rating agencies and an explanation of the ratings may be obtained only from said rating agencies. There is no assurance that such ratings will continue for any given period of time or that they will not be lowered or withdrawn entirely by the rating agencies, or any of them, if in their judgment, circumstances so warrant. A downward change in or withdrawal of any of such ratings may have an adverse effect on the market price of the 2024 Bonds. An explanation of the significance of the ratings can be received from the rating agencies at the following addresses: Moody's Investors Service, Inc., 7 World Trade Center, 250 Greenwich Street, 23rd Floor, New York, New York 10007, S&P Global Ratings, 55 Water Street, New York, New York 10041 and Fitch Ratings, Inc., One State Street Plaza, New York, New York 10004. FINANCIAL ADVISOR The City has retained Ford & Associates Inc., Tampa, Florida, as Financial Advisor in connection with the City's financing plans and with respect to the authorization and issuance of the 2024 Bonds. The Financial Advisor is not obligated to undertake and has not undertaken to make an independent verification or to assume responsibility for the accuracy, completeness, or fairness of the information contained in this Official Statement. The Financial Advisor did not participate in the underwriting of the 2024 Bonds. AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The audited financial statements of the City as of September 30, 2023 and for the year then ended, included in the attached "APPENDIX B – Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2023," have been audited by MSL CPAs & Advisors independent auditors, as stated in their report appearing therein. The consent of the City's auditor to include in this Official Statement the aforementioned report was not requested, and the Annual Comprehensive Financial Report of the City is provided only as a publicly available document. The City’s auditor was not requested nor did it perform any procedures with respect to or participate in the preparation of this Official Statement or the information presented herein. The 2024 Bonds are payable solely from Pledged Funds as provided in the Bond Resolution. See "SECURITY FOR THE BONDS" herein. The audited financial statements are presented for general information purposes only. 80 ENFORCEABILITY OF REMEDIES The remedies available to the owners of the 2024 Bonds upon an event of default under the Bond Resolution are in many respects dependent upon judicial actions which are often subject to discretion and delay. Under existing constitutional and statutory law and judicial decisions, including specifically the federal bankruptcy code, the remedies specified by the Bond Resolution and the 2024 Bonds may not be readily available or may be limited. The various legal opinions to be delivered concurrently with the delivery of the 2024 Bonds, including Bond Counsel's approving opinion, will be qualified, as to the enforceability of the remedies provided in the various legal instruments, by limitations imposed by bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency or other similar laws affecting the rights of creditors enacted before or after such delivery. See "APPENDIX C – Form of the Bond Resolution" attached hereto for a description of events of default and remedies. CONTINUING DISCLOSURE The City has covenanted for the benefit of the 2024 Bondholders to provide certain financial information and operating data relating to the City and the 2024 Bonds in each year, and to provide notices of the occurrence of certain enumerated material events. The City has agreed to file annual financial information and operating data and the audited financial statements with each entity authorized and approved by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") to act as a repository (each a "Repository") for purposes of complying with Rule 15c2-12 adopted by the SEC under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Rule"). Effective July 1, 2009, the sole Repository is the Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board ("MSRB"). The City has agreed to file notices of certain enumerated material events, when and if they occur, with the Repository. The specific nature of the financial information, operating data, and of the type of events which trigger a disclosure obligation, and other details of the undertaking are described in "APPENDIX G – Form of Continuing Disclosure Certificate" attached hereto. The Continuing Disclosure Certificate will be executed by the City upon the issuance of the 2024 Bonds. These covenants have been made in order to assist the Underwriters in complying with the continuing disclosure requirements of the Rule. With respect to the 2024 Bonds, no party other than the City is obligated to provide, nor is expected to provide, any continuing disclosure information with respect to the Rule. With respect to prior continuing disclosure undertakings, the City failed to timely file certain operating data and financial statements for (i) Fiscal Year 2020 due to delays as a result of COVID-19, and in Fiscal Year 2021 as a result of the implementation of a new financial system, the City failed to file a rating upgrade for November 2019. In addition, the City did not timely file notice of a financial obligation relating to the extension of a line of credit that closed September 28, 2021, or a financial obligation relating to a bank loan that closed on June 11, 2024. All such failures have since been cured. The City has engaged Digital Assurance Certification, L.L.C., as its dissemination agent. The City fully anticipates satisfying all future disclosure obligations required pursuant to the Rule.

City Government The City has operated under a strong mayor-council form of government since 1945. The Mayor is responsible for carrying out the policies and ordinances of the City Council, for overseeing the day-to- day operations of the City, for drafting the budget and submitting it to the City Council for approval, and for nominating department heads for hiring approval by the City Council. Legislative authority is vested in an elected City Council consisting of seven (7) members. The City Council is responsible, among other things, for passing ordinances, adopting the budget, appointing committees, and approving the hiring of department head nominees submitted by the Mayor. The Mayor and all seven (7) City Council members are elected every four (4) years with a term limit of two (2) consecutive terms. The Mayor and three (3) City Council members are elected at large, and four City Council members are elected from single- member districts within the City. However, the three (3) City Council members who are chosen from one of the three at-large districts may choose to run in a single-member district, and the four (4) City Council members who are elected from a single-member district may run in an at-large district. Ordinance No. 2023-3 provides "provided however, no person who has, or but for resignation, would have served as A-3 member of the City Council for a total of four consecutive, full terms shall be elected as a City Council Member of the succeeding term."

Viera April 30, 2027 The City provides a full range of services, including police and fire protection; the construction of streets, and other infrastructure; park and recreation facilities, convention accommodations, and parking, water, wastewater and solid waste services. For more information, see "APPENDIX B – Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2023" attached to this Official Statement. The annual budget serves as the foundation for the City's financial planning and control. All departments of the City are required to submit requests for appropriation to the Mayor. The Mayor uses these requests as the starting point for developing the proposed budget. The Mayor then presents this proposed budget to the City Council for review prior to August 15. The City Council is required to hold two public hearings on the proposed budget and to adopt a final budget no later than September 30, the close of the City's Fiscal Year. PROPERTY TAXES General Information Ad valorem tax revenues are the product of the assessed valuation of taxable real, personal and other property within the jurisdiction of the taxing unit of government and the tax rate expressed in mills. See "PROPERTY TAX REFORM" herein for information on recent legislation, legislative proposals and constitutional amendments related to property taxes. Ad valorem taxes may not be pledged for the payment of debt obligations of the City maturing more than twelve months from the date of issuance thereof without approval of the electorate of the City. The ad valorem tax revenues of the City are not pledged as security for the payment of the 2024 Bonds. Assessments The Hillsborough County Property Appraiser is responsible for preparing an annual tax assessment roll based on the "just value" of taxable property within the County as of each January 1. Real property improvements are added to the tax roll on the January 1 as of which they are substantially completed. The tax assessment roll is required to be submitted to the Florida Department of Revenue ("FDOR") by July 1 of each year. The FDOR has statutory authority to review and establish A-4 administrative guidelines for the certification of property assessment rolls. Based on those regulations, the FDOR certified the tax assessment roll for the County, based on January 1, 2024 property valuations, at 95% of just value which is equal to, or greater than the 90% required for certification. The Hillsborough County Property Appraiser used the eight factors enumerated in Chapter 193, Florida Statutes, to arrive at a fair market value in determining just value for purposes of the tax roll. The Hillsborough County Property Appraiser is required by law to revalue property within the County annually and to inspect property every three years. Tax Rates Each unit of local government establishes its tax rate (millage) annually. The constitutional limit on City, County and school taxes is ten mills for each unit of government. The limit for special districts is fixed by law, but constitutionally may not exceed ten mills. The limit of Hillsborough Area Regional Transit ("HART") is 0.5 mills. The limits may be exceeded for debt service on bonds approved by the voters in a referendum. The units of local government are statutorily required to establish their tax rates by October 1 of each year. Timing Assessed valuations of property subject to taxation as reflected on a tax roll as of January 1 provide the basis for ad valorem tax revenues in the Fiscal Year beginning on October 1 in the same calendar year (that is, in the next ensuing Fiscal Year). Unless otherwise noted herein, the information presented with respect to property assessments and tax levies is presented for the Fiscal Year in which the tax revenues were or will be received. For example, the revenues for Fiscal Year 2023 reflect tax receipts during the Fiscal Year began October 1, 2022, and ended September 30, 2023, based on property assessments as of January 1, 2022.

CITY OF TAMPA GENERAL INFORMATION Tampa Bay History Spanish explorer Ponce de Leon first arrived in the Tampa Bay area in 1513, but the Spaniards focused their attention on settling eastern Florida and left the western areas alone. In 1824, only two months after the arrival of the first non-native settlers, the U.S. Army established Fort Brooke to protect the strategic harbor at Tampa Bay. Development of the region began after the territory became part of the United States in 1845. Despite the blockade and federal occupation during the Civil War, the area grew steadily. Henry B. Plant's 1884 railroad extension to the Hillsborough River provided access to new areas, and he built lavish hotels along his rail line to attract visitors which led to continued economic growth in Tampa that lasted for the next fifty years. Tampa owes its commercial success to Tampa Bay and the Hillsborough River. When phosphates were discovered nearby in the late 1880's, the resulting mining and shipping industries prompted a boom of growth and wealth that lasted through the 1890's. Tampa's port is now the seventh largest in the nation. In 1886, Vicente Martinez Ybor established a cigar factory in Tampa. From the steps of Ybor's factory, Jose Marti, sometimes called the George Washington of Cuba, exhorted the cigar workers to take up arms against Spain in the late 1800's. The military has also had an ongoing role in Tampa's development. The City was the primary outfitting and embarkation port for U.S. troops bound for Cuba during the Spanish-American War. A-9 Today, the U.S. Central Command and U.S. Special Operations Command are headquartered at MacDill Air Force Base. The advent of the automobile was responsible for a large settlement wave that occurred between 1923-1926. Many subdivisions were built during this era; one of the most notable was Davis Islands, a man-made island created by D. P. Davis. The elegant homes Davis built remain some of Tampa's loveliest. The main Tampa downtown business district has grown phenomenally since the 1960's. Major banks and an increasing number of other corporations occupy large glass, steel and concrete buildings that tower high above the bay. Tampa continues to attract key industries such as corporate headquarters, bioscience, international trade, technology, financial services, manufacturing, and distribution companies. Tampa has evolved into a multi-cultural, diverse business center with sustainable communities for its citizens. People of all ages arrive here to escape the worries and winters of wherever they came from, and an increasing number of them stay. Community The City of Tampa is located on the west coast of Florida. The City occupies 113 square miles and serves a population of 403,364.

Hillsborough Community College ("HCC") is currently the fifth largest community college in Florida’s State College System, serving more than 43,000 students each year at its five campuses, three centers and online platform. HCC offers more than 200 academic options including associate degrees, college credit certificates, postsecondary adult vocational certificates, advanced technical diplomas, and continuing education. Also, near downtown is the Tampa Law Center of the Stetson University College of Law which was once again ranked No. 1 in 2024 by U.S. News in trial advocacy and No. 3 in legal writing, both vital skills for attorneys. Saint Leo University, just north of Tampa, has a center at MacDill Air Force Base and has been recognized as one of the top military-friendly colleges and universities. Economic Outlook The City of Tampa's budget is affected by a variety of economic factors that are significant drivers of demand for City services and major revenues. The following is a brief discussion of historical and current key economic indicators, including employment and population growth, employment industries in Tampa, unemployment rate, and the performance of two major economic engines (Port Tampa Bay and Tampa International Airport). According to the University of Central Florida’s Florida & Metro A-15 Forecast 2024-2027, the fastest growing employment sectors are construction and mining (2.5%) and the education and health services sector (1.8%). The metropolitan statistical area ("MSA") economic indicators for Tampa-St. Petersburg- Clearwater are expected to show average levels of growth compared to other areas in Florida. According to the University of Central Florida’s Florida & Metro Forecast 2024-2027 (Spring 2024) population growth will average 1.4% annually, employment is expected to grow by 1.2% annually, and the unemployment rate is expected to average 3.6% through 2027. The unemployment rate for the MSA as of April 2024 is 3.3% per the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. Port Tampa Bay, Florida’s largest and most diversified seaport, handled over 33.1 million tons of cargo during Fiscal Year 2023 and welcomed approximately 1.1 million cruise passengers. With over 1,000 acres of industrially zoned land, Port Tampa Bay’s cargo mix includes a wide variety of containerized, bulk, break bulk and ro-ro traffic, including construction and building materials, energy products, food and beverage, agricultural commodities, retail products, and heavy equipment, as well as being a major fertilizer export port and shipbuilding/repair center. Managed by Port Tampa Bay, Foreign Trade Zone #79 allows companies involved with qualified importing, exporting, manufacturing and distribution activities to see cost savings on their customs duties, taxes, and merchandise processing fees. Florida is now the third most populous state in the U.S. welcoming more than 140 million visitors per year. The Tampa Bay/Orlando I-4 Corridor region is the state’s largest consumer market, as well as its fastest growing region, and has become Florida’s primary distribution hub. The Port’s central location in the geographic center of the state minimizes truck delivery costs and allows for same day coverage of the entire Florida peninsula. With Florida’s largest concentration of distribution centers within 100 miles, Port Tampa Bay, along with container terminal operator Ports America, has accommodated the growth in Florida by staying ahead of the curve thanks to the terminal build-out program. Recent expansion includes a new expanded gate complex and the recent delivery of three additional STS post-Panamax cranes for a total of five. Construction is currently underway to add 30 acres of paved storage for a total of 100 acres and a berth extension from 3,200 to 4,500 linear feet. Deep-water channel expansion is planned from the current 43-foot depth to 47 feet. A new state of the art 135,000 square foot on-dock cold storage facility serves the perishable market. The port has global connections including weekly service to Asia via the expanded Panama Canal, Honduras, Guatemala, Costa Rica, Mexico Central America, Caribbean, and West Coast South America. Port Tampa Bay handles over 1 million passengers annually between Carnival Cruise Line, Royal Caribbean International, Celebrity Cruises, Norwegian Cruise Line and Margaritaville at Sea. Tampa International Airport ("TIA") is a major international and domestic airport for the west central region of Florida and is highly regarded for its efficiency and passenger convenience. During 2023, 23.9 million passengers enplaned and deplaned at the airport, which represents an increase of 11.24% compared to 2022. Internationally, TIA is currently offering nonstop flights to several desirable business or vacation destinations such as London, Zurich, Frankfurt, Amsterdam, Toronto, Havana, Montego Bay, Punta Cana, Santo Domingo, & Cancun. TIA has added nonstop routes to more than 22 new markets since 2020 providing travelers more direct options. A-16 TIA is committed to designing, building, and implementing capital improvements and programs that are economically wise and environmentally and socially responsible. Over 30% of their fleet runs on alternative fuels such as compressed natural gas, hybrid-electric, or all electric with a goal of over 70% running on alternative fuels. TIA provides EV charging stations for customers in all parking garages and at the Cell Phone Lot. As part of TIA’s sustainability efforts, the Hillsborough County Aviation Authority won a federal 100% Zero Emission Vehicle grant to purchase seven electric buses and charging stations to be used by TPA to transport employees from the North Employee Parking Lot off Hillsborough Avenue to the Main Terminal. To accommodate TIA's continued increase in passenger traffic, TIA officials began updating the airport's Master Plan for the 3,300-acre campus in late 2011. The master plan was approved in 2013 and will allow the airport to serve 34 million passengers each year while remaining in the same footprint. The plan is divided into three phases. TIA completed Phase 1 in late 2018 and anticipates completing Phase 2 in early 2025 ($1.6 billion between Phase 1 & 2). The master plan renovations include the expansion of the main terminal, a new automated people mover, a new rental car center near the airport entrance. It also includes a 35-acre commercial development around the rental car center featuring the SkyCenter One office building, convenience store with gas station, hotel, and a commercial curb to accommodate transit and other ground transportation, and connections to regional trail networks. The curbside expansion includes 16 new express lanes exclusively for passengers without checked luggage. The third and final expansion phase will include the construction of a new 16-gate terminal-Airside D with gates serving domestic and international flights as well as facilities to process international passengers. The project received approval from the Aviation Authority’s Board of Directors in September 2022. Construction is scheduled to break ground in 2024 and be completed in early 2028. Already considered one of the most user-friendly airports in the world by frequent flyers, the planned improvements will further enhance the airport's reputation. Building Activity Tampa continues to grow and prosper. In Fiscal Year 2022, the City permitted construction projects valued at over $2.6 billion (26,764 building permits) and $3.6 billion in Fiscal Year 2023 (26,088 building permits). The City anticipates $15.5 million in construction permit and enhancement fee revenues to be generated for Fiscal Year 2024. The level of construction permit revenues is the result of multiple new large-scale projects coming online, such as Adderley housing, Aqua at Westshore Yacht Club, Tyson Apartments, Bay Oaks North Tower, and TGH Behavioral Health. The City continues its commitment to economic development. Today, the City is smarter about how it does business, is more efficient and accessible to citizens, and continues to streamline its permitting process. City employees work hard every day to grow and retain existing business, attract new businesses, develop entrepreneurship, and make Tampa a more competitive city through a variety of initiatives, including enhancing Workforce Development and Housing Affordability programs to ensure the City has the tools necessary to provide for all its residents across all neighborhoods and communities. Economic Development Gas Worx Gas Worx is a $750 million, mixed-use development that connects Ybor City, Central Park neighborhood, and downtown Tampa. The project is a partnership between local business owner Darryl A-17 Shaw and national developer, Kettler Development. The 50-acre development will include mixed income and market rate residential units, new retail spaces, office space, and restaurants that will connect the historic Ybor to Water Street. Plans for Gas Worx include 5,000 residences in the City’s urban core with 500,000 square feet of office space and 140,000 square feet of retail. The development will bring a more vibrant live, work, and play atmosphere to Ybor City. Construction on Gas Worx kicked off in early 2023 with the groundbreaking on two new apartment buildings. Located north of East 5th Avenue between East Scott Street and the Nick Nuccio Parkway, work has commenced on a 4-story, 170-unit apartment building. Just south of East 5th Avenue, between East Scott Street and Nick Nuccio Parkway, construction has also started on a 5-story apartment building with 147 units. Completion of both buildings, including affordable housing, is slated for 2024. Phase II of the project will kick off in mid-2024, creating 1,250 residential units, 100,000 square feet of office space and 105,000 square feet of retail space to be completed by 2026. Water Street Tampa Strategic Property Partners, LLC, in partnership with Cascade Investments, are continuing to redevelop approximately 56 acres in south end downtown Tampa into a vibrant, diverse, walkable neighborhood. The mixed-use development includes the University of South Florida Health Morsani College of Medicine and Heart Institute, a grocery, retail spaces, office buildings, a variety of residential choices, hotels, and a walkable neighborhood. The development's first hotel, a 29-story, 519-unit JW Marriott, was completed in 2021 and connects via a glass skybridge to the recently renovated Tampa Marriott Water Street located along Garrison Channel. The Marriott family of hotels is not the only chain to grace the Tampa skyline, as September 2022 saw the completion of the 27-story, 172 guestroom Tampa EDITION Hotel. Residents and visitors to the Bay area alike now have plenty of choices for eateries. The Pearl restaurant, located in the Heron residential apartment towers, 3 Corners Pizza at the Heron and the Wagamama restaurant opened their kitchens to the public in 2023. In April 2024, the developer’s released their plan for three new projects including a condo building, an office tower, and an entertainment destination. The two towers—a residential condo building and office complex—will be built off Cumberland Avenue. The residential building will be the tallest building in Water Street Tampa and will include ground-floor retail and parking. The office tower, residential condos and entertainment venue will begin when the road infrastructure is completed around spring 2025. West River Development The West River Redevelopment plan covers a 120-acre area bounded by Rome Avenue, Columbus Avenue, the Hillsborough River, and I-275. The plan focuses on reconnecting the street grid and increasing access to Julian B. Lane Riverfront Park and the Hillsborough River. The project promotes strong ties with public education and community services and plans for more than 1,700 new residential units, with a variety of housing styles and affordability. The administration selected Related Urban to redevelop City-owned land. The redevelopment of the former "Rome Avenue Yard" is a mixed-use and mixed-income development located on 18-acres of City-owned property immediately west of the Hillsborough River, A-18 east of Rome Avenue, south of Columbus Drive and north of Spruce Street in the West Tampa Community Redevelopment Area (CRA). The development is a joint venture between the Tampa Housing Authority, the City of Tampa, and Related Urban Development Group that will create a mixed-use neighborhood of both affordable and market-rate housing, retail, micro space for local startups and a workforce training center, an amphitheater, and other amenities that define an urban lifestyle. It will include dozens of community- centric features including a cultural center and art pavilion, as well as a brick observation "cigar tower" to honor the cigar factories that were an indelible part of West Tampa’s Latin history. Columbus Drive Development The City of Tampa is at the beginning phases of a development project to create a mixed-use catalytic project that will serve as a live/work hub in the East Tampa Community Redevelopment Area. While part of this project will be providing additional affordable housing units, the City is especially excited for the creation of the East Tampa Manufacturing Center (ETMC). The City’s goal for the ETMC is to create a centralized location where local entrepreneurs can take product-based ideas through the full business lifecycle of inception, design, prototyping, commercialization, and scaling. As businesses expand, the ETMC will work to ensure they stay and grow in the East Tampa area, strengthening the city’s manufacturing cluster. The ETMC will create a dynamic entrepreneurial ecosystem to drive new company creation within the building, while also serving as an anchor and catalyst for the broader manufacturing ecosystem in East Tampa and citywide. The ETMC will also drive equitable growth by connecting residents to careers in manufacturing and design through outreach to disadvantaged communities, hands-on training and work experience opportunities at companies located at the ETMC. The ETMC will also be a resource for existing employers in Tampa by providing access to specialized equipment, design and manufacturing services, and a pipeline of technically trained talent. Midtown Tampa Midtown Tampa is a mixed-use development project aimed at connecting Westshore to downtown. Located at the corner of Dale Mabry Highway and Cypress Street, Midtown Tampa offers residential units, office and retail space, and entertainment and hospitality venues, including Whole Foods, REI Co-op, Joffrey's Coffee, Shake Shack, BellaBrava, and Aloft-Element Hotel. Midtown Tampa’s rapidly expanding district has maintained a strong lease demand as the area attracts tenants with its ideal office environment. In May 2023, a partnership with developers Highwoods Properties and The Bromley Companies broke ground on an 18-story office building that will serve as the future headquarters of Tampa Electric and People’s Gas. This development project is expected to be completed in 2025. With its diverse array of restaurants, boutiques, and recreational facilities, Midtown Tampa is a thriving community hub where residents can live, work, and play in style. Westshore Marina District The Westshore Marina District is a master planned community situated along 1.5 miles of waterfront, green space, marina, and open bay. The 52-acre destination presents a contemporary environment for water-inspired living, shopping, dining, and recreation with over 1,300 residential offerings ranging from luxurious marina-front tower residences with private club amenities to contemporary townhomes and apartments - Town Westshore Apartments (396 units), Bainbridge At Westshore Apartments (351 units), Luxury Townhomes (160 units), and the Marina Point Luxury A-19 Condominium Towers (+350 Units). Currently, construction of the second tower of the Marina Pointe Development has begun and will have 151 units upon completion. Additionally, construction is expected to begin on the third and final tower later this year. The third tower will be completed in 2027 and will house 105 units. Between all three towers, Marina Pointe is currently just under 50% of all units sold. Designed for walkability, the neighborhood features a comprehensive array of amenities to include urban trails, parks, and a 159-slip marina with transient dockage for visitors that offers boaters unrestricted access to Tampa Bay. Sustainability and Resilience This City of Tampa is making significant strides in its commitment to Sustainability & Resilience. In the four years since creating the City’s first Sustainability and Resilience Officer position, the City significantly increased programs and funding to meet goals set out by the office. The Sustainability and Resilience Officer relies on three guiding principles: • Go Green: Ensure decisions consider life cycle environmental impacts • Be Fair: Ensure decisions are equitable and socially responsible • Keep Safe: Ensure decisions are redundant, resilient, and adaptable The City published a Resilience Roadmap (2021) and Climate Action and Equity Plan (2023), both of which paved the way for additional investments in stormwater mitigation, tree planting, renewable energy, and policy and infrastructure changes to address extreme weather. The actions identified in these plans are applied at every programmatic and project level feasible. For example, the City Center at Hanna Project is equipped with solar panels that will entirely offset energy over the year and the investment is expected to pay for itself in under 10 years. The City also installed solar panels at Loretta Ingraham Community Center and plans to install several more systems on community centers and City of Tampa facilities in Fiscal Year 2025. With tax rebates provided by the Inflation Reduction Act, these investments help reduce the City’s energy demand from traditional grid powered sources and lower bills. The City will continue its commitment to maintaining a word class tree canopy, setting a goal of planting 30,000 new trees by 2030. The tree initiative will expand the Tree-mendous Tampa Free Tree Program by allowing residents to receive up to five free trees and launching a new voucher program to encourage and help people buy trees from local nurseries. The Tree-mendous Tampa Program not only plants trees, but also includes an educational component to help residents by providing best management practices for trees. The implementation of the Neighborhood Tree Stewardship program will educate residents on tree care and the urban forest. The City is continuing its partnerships with Learning Gate Community School, the USF Patel College of Global Sustainability, and others in the Tampa Bay area environmental community celebrating EcoFest. EcoFest 2024 was the 14th annual community event to celebrate the many businesses, organizations, and individuals in the Tampa Bay Area dedicated to the principles of sustainability, ecology, equity, and economy. The City of Tampa is also continuing to support the City of Tampa AmeriCorps Green Team The Green Team is a partnership with Volunteer Florida and AmeriCorps to provide AmeriCorps members A-20 the opportunity to work alongside City of Tampa staff and associated non-profits to make the community and Earth a cleaner, healthier, and more sustainable place. The AmeriCorps Members of Tampa's Green Team replants Tampa’s tree canopy, helps reduce marine litter, enhances community gardens, and provides climate change education. Social Equity and Inclusion The City has multiple offices and organizations ensuring equitable treatment for all. The significant involvement of the City of Tampa in human rights, socio-cultural diversity, social justice, and inclusionary issues demonstrates that the City supports social equity principles and embraces its diversity, viewing it as a positive and powerful attribute. Consequently, the City of Tampa scored 100% on the Human Rights Campaign Foundation's 2019 Municipal Equality Index Scorecard. The Municipal Equality Index displays the ways that many cities can, and do, support the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, and Questioning (LGBTQ) people who live and work there, even where states and the federal government have failed to do so.

PENSION PLANS General Employees' Pension Fund The City contributes to the City of Tampa General Employees' Pension Fund (the "General Employee Fund"), a single employer, defined benefit plan covering virtually all full-time City employees (other than full-time firefighters and police officers) and former employees of the City, whose current A-21 governmental employers make contributions for those employees. The General Employee Fund is administered by an independent board of trustees and is accounted for as a separate pension trust fund. The General Employee Fund was amended in 1981 to provide social security coverage for all future employees of the City. The General Employee Fund was divided into City pension with social security and full City pension with no social security. All employees hired on or after October 1, 1981 are automatically covered by social security and City pension. Benefit eligibility requirements and benefit provisions are as follows: for employees hired before October 1, 1981 (Plan A) who contribute to the General Employee Fund, vesting occurs at 6 or more years of continuous service and benefits are distributed at age 55. Benefit amounts are calculated based on the highest three (3) years of salary within the last six (6) years of employment. Monthly benefit amounts are equal to 2.0% of the average monthly salary multiplied by years of service, plus an additional 0.5% of the average monthly salary for each additional year of service for employment after 15 years served on or after January 1, 1975, until the maximum of 30 years. For employees hired or elected on or after October 1, 1981 (Plan B) who contribute to social security, vesting occurs with six (6) or more years of continuous service and benefits are distributed at age 62. Benefit amounts are calculated based on the highest three (3) years of salary within the last six (6) years of employment. The monthly pension is equal to 1.2% of the employee's average monthly compensation times years of service. Early retirement is permitted for those hired on or after October 1, 1981, who have at least six (6) years of service and have reached age 55. The accrued normal benefit is reduced 5/12% for each month by which the early retirement precedes normal retirement. Pre-and post- retirement death benefits are also provided. Members with six (6) or more years of credited service who have reached age 55 are eligible to participate in the Deferred Retirement Option Program ("DROP") for up to seven (7) years. During the DROP period, the member makes no further contribution to the fund and accrues a benefit amount equal to what would have been the member's retirement benefit had the member retired as of the date of entry into the DROP program. A DROP participant shall have the opportunity to elect an investment option to be applied to such DROP participant's account for the plan year when entering the DROP and for each subsequent plan year. In such election, the DROP participant shall choose to have interest accumulate annually, whether positive or negative, at either (i) a rate reflecting the General Employee Fund's investment performance, as determined by the board of trustees, or (ii) a rate reflective of a low-risk variable rate selected annually by the board of trustees in its sole discretion. This accumulated amount is paid in a lump sum when the member leaves active service at the end of the DROP period. Both DROP benefits and post-retirement benefits receive cost of living adjustments annually; employees hired before October 1, 1981 receive 2.2% and employees hired on or after October 1, 1981 receive 1.2%. Firefighters and Police Officers Pension Fund The City contributes to the City of Tampa Firefighters and Police Officers Pension Fund (the "Firefighters and Police Fund"), a single employer, defined benefit plan covering substantially all full- time firefighters and police officers. The Firefighters and Police Fund is administered by an independent board of trustees and is accounted for by the City as a separate pension trust fund. Benefit eligibility requirements and benefit provisions are as follows: vesting for participants in the Firefighters and Police Fund occurs at 10 years of service, and participants may begin drawing monthly pension benefits at the earlier of attaining age 46 with 10 or more years of service or 20 years of A-22 service, regardless of age. The annual pension benefit is 3.15% for each year of service times the employees final average compensation (highest three of the last six years of service), but not less than $100 per month. The Firefighters and Police Fund provides both service and non-service-related disability and preretirement death benefits. Effective October 1, 2004, the annual pension benefit was increased from 2.5% to 3.15% for each year of service times the employees final average compensation (highest three of the last 10 years of service), but not less than $100 per month. The increased benefit is applicable only to plan members actively employed as firefighters or police officers on or after October 1, 2003. Members with at least 20 years of credited service are eligible to participate in DROP for up to five (5) years. Members entering DROP after 25 years of service are eligible to participate in the DROP for a combined total of 30 years of credited service. During the DROP period, the member accrues a benefit amount equal to what would have been the member's longevity retirement benefit had the member retired as of the date of entry into the DROP program adjusted for net investment returns on fund assets. A DROP participant shall have the opportunity to elect an investment option to be applied to such DROP participant's account for the plan year when entering the DROP and for each subsequent plan year. In such election, the DROP participant shall choose to have interest accumulate annually, whether positive or negative, at either (i) a rate reflecting the Firefighters and Police Fund's investment performance, as determined by the board of trustees, or (ii) a rate reflective of a low-risk variable rate selected annually by the board of trustees in its sole discretion. This accumulated amount less the portion attributable to the employee's after-tax pension contributions may be either rolled over to a tax- qualified vehicle, paid in a lump sum, or some combination of the two (2) based upon the member's request when the member leaves active service at the end of the DROP period. All eligible retired members and surviving spouses receive a 13th check program benefit payment. The 13th check program benefit, if any, is actuarially determined and is an equal dollar amount for all eligible retirees. One half of that amount is the benefit to eligible surviving spouses. The 13th check benefit was funded by employee contributions from the 13th check benefit's inception in October 1998 through September 30, 2001. Employee contributions to the 13th check benefit ceased September 30, 2001, and the 13th check benefit was then funded by a portion of the investment return in excess of the actuarially assumed rate of return of the fund. [Remainder of page intentionally left blank] A-23 The Statements of Net Position and Changes in Net Position for the General Employees Fund and Firefighters and Police Officers Fund as of September 30, 2023 are presented below (in thousands). Members terminating employment who are not eligible to retire are entitled to a refund of contributions they made to the Firefighters and Police Fund without interest. Postretirement benefit increases are based on the net change in the average cost of living index with a maximum determined by the actuary and a minimum not below the original benefit for the Firefighters and Police Fund. These benefits are paid from a postretirement adjustment account which had market value of assets of $1,020,287,867 as of September 30, 2023.

(2) The figures presented are from the Firefighters and Police Actuarial Report, as of October 1, 2023. Significant Accounting Policies The City has two pension funds -- Firefighters and Police (F&P) Officers' Pension Trust Fund and the General Employees' (GE) Pension Trust Fund. Financial information for the two (2) pension funds are prepared using the accrual basis of accounting. The preparations of the financial statements of both plans conform to the provisions of GASB Statements No. 67 and 68. For purposes of measuring the net pension liability, deferred outflows of resources and deferred inflows of resources related to pensions, and pension expense, information about the fiduciary net position of the City's two pension funds - Firefighters and Police Officers' Pension Trust Fund and the General Employees' Pension Trust Fund and additions to/deductions from the fiduciary net position of each plan have been determined on the same basis as they are reported by the Plans. Benefits and refunds of both plans are recognized using the completed transaction method. The City's plans are treated as fiduciary funds in the financial section of the financial statements. Employer and plan member contributions are recognized in the period that contributions are due. Investments are reported at fair value. The aggregate pension expense for the year ended September 30, 2023 was $88,849,640 for the Firefighters and Police Officers' Pension Fund and $57,534,148 for the General Employees' Pension Plan. Details on the pension expense for the City's plans are discussed further in this note. Separate audited financial statements are issued for the Firefighters and Police Officers' Pension Trust Fund. Copies of that report may be obtained from the City's Accounting Division offices at 306 East Jackson Street, Tampa, Florida. No separate audited financial statement is issued for the General Employees' Pension Trust Fund. Investments in the two plan funds are reported at fair value according to the independent custodian for each plan and the independent money managers of the assets in each plan using various third-party pricing sources. Short-term investments are reported at fair value. Contribution Requirements and Contributions Made City policy and Florida Statutes govern the City and employee contribution requirements for both funds. The City's contribution to the General Employee Fund is an actuarially determined periodic amount that changes gradually over time so that sufficient assets will be available to pay benefits when due. The employees' contribution rate for this fund is currently 7% of gross pay for employees hired before October 1, 1981 and no contribution for employees hired on or after October 1, 1981. The City's contribution to the Firefighters and Police Fund is an actuarially determined periodic amount that is a minimum of 134% of a portion of the employee contribution. The employees' contribution to the fund A-25 uses a progressive scale (full scale contribution rate) that ranges from 6% to 25% of earnings, which may be discounted by the actuary. Members who have entered the DROP program for either fund do not make contributions during their DROP participation period. The State makes contributions from taxes on casualty insurance premiums. The State's contribution to the Firefighters and Police Fund for the year ended September 30, 2023 was $10,576,096. The City recognized these on-behalf payments from the State as revenues and expenditures in the governmental fund financial statements. Funded Status Another measure of the Funded Status of a defined benefit plan is the level of funding of the Accumulated Plan Benefits and Vested Benefits. Accumulated Plan Benefits are those future benefit payments that are attributable to employees' service rendered prior to the valuation date based on employees' actual pay histories (or estimates thereof). This measurement of benefits does not take into account the effect of potential future salary increases.

It is possible that in the future net pension fund liability could increase as a result of the downward trend in stock market performance as a result of COVID-19. EMPLOYEE RELATIONS The City currently maintains 4,575 full-time equivalent positions (excluding vacancies). Under the Constitution of the State, employees have the right to join together for the purposes of collective bargaining; however, strikes by municipal employees, under any conditions, are prohibited by the Florida Constitution. Currently, the City has four (4) active collective bargaining agreements which have a three-year term and are set to expire on September 30, 2025. The total collective bargaining membership is 3,589 or 78.4% of the full-time equivalent positions. A-27 OTHER POST-EMPLOYMENT BENEFIT PLAN GASB 74 and 75 reflect the accounting and financial reporting standards for other postemployment benefits other than pension ("OPEB"). GASB 74 is for OPEB plans that are dedicated to trusts and assets. Since the City of Tampa does not have this type of trust, GASB 74 does not apply. GASB 75 is for Employers that sponsor OPEB plans. The City of Tampa does follow GASB 75. Plan Description The Post-Employment Health Care Benefits Plan is a single-employer defined benefit plan administered by the City. Pursuant to the provisions of Section 112.0801, Florida Statutes, former employees and eligible dependents who retire from the City may continue to participate in the City's health and hospitalization plan for medical and prescription drug coverages. These retirees are completely responsible for payment of their insurance premiums and the City does not contribute toward this payment. However, the City subsidizes the premium rates paid by retirees by allowing them to participate in the plans at blended group (implicitly subsidized) premium rates for both active and retired employees. These rates provide an implicit subsidy for retirees because, on an actuarial basis, their current and future claims are expected to result in higher costs to the plan on average than those of active employees. Medicare eligible retirees are required to enroll in the Federal Medicare program for their primary coverage as soon as they are eligible. Funding Policy For the Post-Employment Health Care Benefits Plan, contribution requirements of the City are established and may be amended through recommendations of the City's Insurance Committee. The City has not advance-funded or established a funding methodology for the annual OPEB Total Liability costs or the Net OPEB Liability. As of September 30, 2022, there were 347 inactive members or beneficiaries receiving benefits and 4,444 active plan members. The contributions made to the program are assumed to be the benefits paid to retirees and administrative expense. Annual OPEB Expense and Changes in Total OPEB Liability The following table shows the City's annual OPEB expense for the year, the amount actually contributed to the plan, and changes in the City's total OPEB liability for the Fiscal Year ended September 30, 2023.

A-29 Actuarial Methods and Assumptions 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 and termination, mortality, and the healthcare cost trends. 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. Projections of benefits for financial reporting purposes are based on the substantive plan provisions, as understood by the employer and participating 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 participating members. 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. Actuarial Assumptions Inflation Rate 2.50% Salary Increase Rate(s) Varies by Service Discount Rate 4.87% Initial Trend Rate 7.25% Ultimate Trend Rate 4.00% Years to Ultimate 52 Mortality Rates Based on Pub-2010 Mortality Tables PROPERTY TAX REFORM Non-Ad Valorem Revenues do not include ad valorem tax revenues. Ad valorem revenues have historically been used, at least in part, by the City for payment of services and programs which are essential government services or which are legally mandated by applicable law. Therefore, a decrease in ad valorem tax revenues may in turn increase the amount of Non-Ad Valorem Revenues required for payment of services and programs which are essential government services or which are legally mandated by applicable law and thereby reduce the amount of Non-Ad Valorem Revenues available to be budgeted and appropriated to satisfy the obligation of the City under the Bond Resolution. The City has provided the following discussion of property tax reform in the State of Florida, to illustrate the various initiatives put forth by the State Legislature and their respective impact, if any, on the City's financial and budgetary matters. General. During recent years, various legislative proposals and constitutional amendments relating to ad valorem taxation and revenue limitation have been introduced in the State. Many of these proposals sought to provide for new or increased exemptions to ad valorem taxation, limit the amount of revenues that local governments could generate or otherwise restrict the ability of local governments in the State to levy ad valorem taxes at recent, historical levels. There can be no assurance that similar or additional legislative or other proposals will not be introduced or enacted in the future that would, or might apply to, or have a material adverse effect upon the City or either of its finances. Several Constitutional and Legislative amendments affecting ad valorem taxes have been approved by voters in the past including the following: A-30 Limitation on Increase in Assessed Value of Property. The State Constitution limits the increases in assessed just value of homestead property to the lower of (1) three percent of the assessment for the prior year or (2) the percentage change in the Consumer Price Index for all urban consumers, U.S. City Average, all items 1967=100, or successor reports for the preceding calendar year as initially reported by the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics. The accumulated difference between the assessed value and the just value is known as the "Save Our Homes Benefit." Further, any change of ownership of homestead property or upon termination of homestead status such property shall be reassessed at just value as of January 1 of the year following the year of sale or change of status; new homestead property shall be assessed at just value as of January 1 of the year following the establishment of the homestead; and changes, additions, reductions or improvements to the homestead shall initially be assessed as provided for by general law. Owners of homestead property may transfer up to $500,000 of their Save Our Homes Benefit to a new homestead property purchased within three years of the sale of their previous homestead property to which such benefit applied if the just value of the new homestead is greater than or is equal to the just value of the prior homestead. If the just value of the new homestead is less than the just value of the prior homestead, then owners of homestead property may transfer a proportional amount of their Save Our Homes Benefit, such proportional amount equaling the just value of the new homestead divided by the just value of the prior homestead multiplied by the assessed value of the prior homestead. For all levies other than school district levies, assessment increases for specified non homestead real property may not exceed ten percent (10%) of the assessment for the prior year. This assessment limitation is, by its terms, to be repealed effective January 1, 2019; however, the legislature by joint resolution approved an amendment abrogating such repeal, which was approved by the electors in the November 6, 2018 general election and went into effect January 1, 2019. Constitutional Exemptions. Certain exemptions from property taxes have been enacted. Constitutional exemptions include, but are not limited to, property owned by a municipality and used exclusively by it for municipal or public purposes, certain household goods and personal effects to the value fixed by general law, certain locally approved community and economic development ad valorem tax exemptions to new businesses and expansions of existing businesses, as defined by general law and historic preservation ad valorem tax exemptions to owners of historic properties, $25,000 of the assessed value of property subject to tangible personal property tax, the assessed value of solar devices or renewable energy source devices subject to tangible personal property tax may be exempt from ad valorem taxation, subject to limitations provided by general law, and certain real property dedicated in perpetuity for conservation purposes, including real property encumbered by perpetual conservation easements or by other perpetual conservation protections, as defined by general law. Exempt Entities/Exempt Purposes. The State Constitution provides that all property owned by a municipality and used exclusively by it for municipal or public purposes shall be exempt from taxation. A municipality, owning property outside the municipality, may be required by general law to make payment to the taxing unit in which the property is located. Such portions of property as are used predominantly for educational, literary, scientific, religious or charitable purposes (exempt purposes) may be exempted by general law from taxation. State law provides that all property owned by an exempt entity, including educational institutions, and used exclusively for exempt purposes shall be totally exempt from ad valorem taxation and all property owned by an exempt entity, including educational institutions, and used predominantly for exempt purposes (at least 50%) shall be exempted from ad valorem taxation to the extent of the ratio that such predominant use bears to the nonexempt use. A-31 Household Goods and Personal Effects. The State Constitution provides that there shall be exempt from taxation, cumulatively, to every head of a family residing in the State, household goods and personal effects to the value fixed by general law, not less than one thousand dollars and to every widow or widower or person who is blind or totally and permanently disabled, property not less than five hundred dollars. State law exempts from taxation to every person residing and making his or her permanent home in the State, all household goods and personal effects and exempt property up to the value of $5,000 of every widow, widower, blind person, or totally and permanently disabled person who is a resident of the State. Economic Development. The State Constitution provides that any county or municipality may, for the purpose of its respective tax levy and subject to the State Constitution and general law, grant community and economic development ad valorem tax exemptions to new businesses and expansions of existing businesses, as defined by general law. Such an exemption may be granted only by ordinance of the county or municipality, and only after the electors of the county or municipality voting on such question in a referendum authorize the county or municipality to adopt such ordinance. An exemption so granted shall apply to improvements to real property made by or for the use of a new business and improvements to real property related to the expansion of an existing business and shall also apply to tangible personal property of such new business and tangible personal property related to the expansion of an existing business. The amount or limits of the amount of such exemption shall be specified by general law (up to 100% in certain circumstances) and the period of time for which such exemption may be granted to a new business or expansion of an existing business shall be determined by general law. State law provides that the authority to grant such exemption shall expire ten years from the date of approval by the electors of the county or municipality, and may be renewable by referendum as provided by general law and that exemptions may be granted for up to 10 or 20 years depending on the use of the applicable facility. This exemption does not apply to the levy of taxes for the payment of bonds (such as the Bonds). The City has not enacted an ordinance for this exemption. Historic Preservation. The State Constitution provides that any county or municipality may, for the purpose of its respective tax levy and subject to the provisions of the State Constitution and general law, grant historic preservation ad valorem tax exemptions to owners of historic properties. This exemption may be granted only by ordinance of the county or municipality. The amount or limits of the amount of this exemption and the requirements for eligible properties must be specified by general law. State law provides that such exemption may be for an amount up to 50% of the assessed value of the property. The period of time for which this exemption may be granted may continue until the ordinance is repealed or the property no longer qualifies for the exemption. This exemption does not apply to the levy of taxes for the payment of bonds (such as the Bonds). The City has enacted an ordinance granting the exemption described in this paragraph. Tangible Personal Property and Solar Devices. The State Constitution provides that by general law and subject to conditions specified therein, $25,000 of the assessed value of property subject to tangible personal property tax shall be exempt from ad valorem taxation. Effective January 1, 2018 through December 31, 2037, the assessed value of solar devices or renewable energy source devices subject to tangible personal property tax may be exempt from ad valorem taxation, subject to limitations provided by general law. Property Dedicated In Perpetuity for Conservation. The State Constitution provides that there shall be granted an ad valorem tax exemption for certain real property dedicated in perpetuity for A-32 conservation purposes, including real property encumbered by perpetual conservation easements or by other perpetual conservation protections, as defined by general law. Homestead Exemption. In addition to the exemptions described above, the State Constitution also provides for a homestead exemption. Every person who has the legal title or beneficial title in equity to real property in the State and who resides thereon and in good faith makes the same his or her permanent residence or the permanent residence of others legally or naturally dependent upon such person is eligible to receive a homestead exemption of up to $50,000. The first $25,000 applies to all property taxes, including school district taxes. The additional exemption, up to $25,000, applicable to the assessed value of the property between $50,000 and $75,000, applies to all levies other than school district levies. A person who is receiving or claiming the benefit of an ad valorem tax exemption or a tax credit in another state where permanent residency, or residency of another legally or naturally dependent upon the owner, is required as a basis for the granting of that ad valorem tax exemption or tax credit is not entitled to the homestead exemption. In addition to the general homestead exemption described in this paragraph, the following homestead exemptions are authorized by State law. Millage Rollback Legislation. In 2007, the State Legislature adopted a property tax plan which significantly impacted ad valorem tax collections for State local governments (the "Millage Rollback Legislation"). One component of the Millage Rollback Legislation required counties, cities and special districts to rollback their millage rates for the 2007-2008 Fiscal Year to a level that, with certain adjustments and exceptions, would generate the same level of ad valorem tax revenue as in Fiscal Year 2006-2007; provided, however, depending upon the relative growth of each local government's own ad valorem tax revenues from 2001 to 2006, such rolled back millage rates were determined after first reducing 2006-2007 ad valorem tax revenues by zero to nine percent (0% to 9%). In addition, the Rollback Legislation also limited how much the aggregate amount of ad valorem tax revenues may increase in future Fiscal Years. A local government may override certain portions of these requirements by a supermajority, and for certain requirements, a unanimous vote of its governing body. Certain Persons 65 and Older. A board of county commissioners or the governing authority of any municipality may adopt an ordinance to allow an additional homestead exemption of, (1) $50,000 for a person who has the legal or equitable title to real estate that is age 65 or older, and their household income does not exceed the statutory income limitation, and (2) the assessed value of the property for a person who has the legal or equitable title to real estate with a just value less than $250,000, as determined in the first tax year that the owner applies and is eligible for the exemption, and who has maintained thereon the permanent residence of the owner for at least 25 years, who has attained age 65, and whose household income does not exceed the statutory income limitation. The statutory income limitation is $20,000 and is adjusted annually by the percentage change in the average cost-of-living index in the period January 1 through December 31. The City has not enacted an ordinance for this exemption. Deployed Military Personnel. The State Constitution provides that by general law and subject to certain conditions specified therein, each person who receives a homestead exemption who was a member of the United States military or military reserves, the United States Coast Guard or its reserves, or the Florida National Guard; and who was deployed during the preceding calendar year on active duty outside the continental United States, Alaska, or Hawaii in support of military operations designated by the legislature shall receive an additional exemption equal to a percentage of the taxable value of his or her homestead property. The applicable percentage shall be calculated as the number of days during the preceding calendar year the person was deployed on active duty outside the continental United States, A-33 Alaska, or Hawaii in support of military operations designated by the legislature divided by the number of days in that year. Certain Active-Duty Military and Veterans. A military veteran who was honorably discharged, is a resident of the State, and who is disabled to a degree of 10% or more because of misfortune or while serving during wartime may be entitled to a $5,000 reduction in the assessed value of his or her property. This exemption is not limited to homestead property. A military veteran who was honorably discharged with a service-related total and permanent disability may be eligible for a total exemption from taxes on homestead property. A similar exemption is available to disabled veterans confined to wheelchairs. Under certain circumstances, the veteran's surviving spouse may be entitled to carry over these exemptions. Disabled Veterans. The State Constitution allows veterans that are age 65 or older and partially or totally permanently disabled to receive a discount from the ad valorem tax on homestead property that the veteran owns and resides in if, (1) the disability was combat-related, (2), the veteran was honorably discharged upon separation from military service, and (3) the discount is in a percentage equal to the percentage of the veteran’s permanent, service-connected disability as determined by the United States Department of Veterans Affairs. In addition, veterans 65 or older who are partially or totally permanently disabled may receive a discount from tax on homestead property if the disability was combat related and the veteran was honorably discharged upon separation from military service. The discount is a percentage equal to the percentage of the veteran's permanent, service-connected disability as determined by the United States Department of Veteran's Affairs. The City has not enacted an ordinance providing for the exemption from County ad valorem taxes described in this paragraph. Surviving Spouse of Veterans. A Surviving Spouse of a veteran who died from service while on active duty as a member of the United Stated Armed Forces allows the same ad valorem tax discount on homestead property for combat-disabled veterans age 65 or older to transfer to the surviving spouse of a veteran receiving the discount if the surviving spouse holds the legal or beneficial title to the homestead, permanently resides thereon, and does not remarry. The amendment was approved by voters on November 3, 2019 and such amendment took effect on January 1, 2021. Certain Totally and Permanently Disabled Persons. Real estate used and owned as a homestead by a quadriplegic, less any portion used for commercial purposes, is exempt from all ad valorem taxation. Real estate used and owned as a homestead by a paraplegic, hemiplegic, or other totally and permanently disabled person, who must use a wheelchair for mobility or who is legally blind, is exempt from taxation if the gross household income is below statutory limits. Survivors of First Responders. Any real estate that is owned and used as a homestead by the surviving spouse of a first responder (law enforcement officer, correctional officer, firefighter, emergency medical technician or paramedic), who died in the line of duty may be granted a total exemption on homestead property if the first responder and his or her surviving spouse were permanent residents of the State on January 1 of the year in which the first responder died. Save Our Homes Portability Affected by Storm Damage (SOH). Owners of homestead property that was significantly damaged or destroyed as a result of a named tropical storm or hurricane can elect to have the property deemed abandoned if the owner establishes a new homestead by January 1 of the A-34 second year immediately following the storm or hurricane. This will allow the owner of the homestead property to keep their SOH benefit if they move from the significantly damaged or destroyed property to establish a new homestead by the end of the year following the storm. Property Tax Relief for Natural Disasters. In light of the recent natural disasters, the state legislature created a property tax relief credit for homestead parcels on which certain residential improvements were damaged or destroyed by a hurricane that occurred in 2016 or 2017, namely hurricanes Hermine, Matthew, and Irma. If the residential improvement is rendered uninhabitable for at least 30 days due to a hurricane that occurred during the 2016 or 2017 calendar year, taxes initially levied in 2019 may be abated. Due to this reduction in ad valorem tax revenue, the legislature is required to appropriate funds to offset the deficit in certain taxing jurisdictions. Recent Amendments Relating to Ad Valorem Taxation. In the 2016 legislative session, several amendments were passed affecting ad valorem taxation, including classification of agricultural lands during periods of eradication or quarantine, deleting requirements that conservation easements be renewed annually, providing that just value of real property shall be determined in the first tax year for income restricted persons age 65 or older who have maintained such property as their permanent residence for at least 25 years, authorizing a first responder who is totally and permanently disabled as a result of injuries sustained in the line of duty to receive relief from ad valorem taxes assessed on homestead property, revising procedures with respect to assessments, hearings and notifications by the value adjustment board, and revising the interest rate on unpaid ad valorem taxes. During the 2018 State legislative session, the State Legislature passed House Joint Resolution 7001, proposing an amendment to the State Constitution providing that no state tax or fee may be imposed, authorized, raised by the State Legislature, or authorized by the State Legislature to be raised, except through legislation approved by two-thirds of the membership of each house of the State Legislature (the "Supermajority Amendment"). The Supermajority Amendment applies the same two-thirds approval requirement to decreasing or eliminating any state tax or fee exemption or credit. The Supermajority Amendment also required that any proposed state tax or fee imposition, authorization or increase must be contained in a separate bill that contains no other subject. The text of the Supermajority Amendment provided that such amendment would not apply to any tax or fee imposed by, or authorized to be imposed by, a county, municipality, school board, or special district. In the November 2018 General Election, voters approved the Supermajority Amendment to the State Constitution. Although the Supermajority Amendment does not subject local taxes and fees to the stricter voting requirement, local governments could be adversely impacted during recessionary economic environments if State lawmakers are unable to raise taxes. During the 2020 State legislative session, a constitutional amendment was proposed by the State Legislature which would extend the discount on ad valorem taxes provided to certain honorably discharged veterans to their spouses (the "Surviving Spouse Exemption"). Specifically, the Surviving Spouse Exemption allows the same ad valorem tax discount on homestead property for combat-disabled veterans age 65 or older to transfer to the surviving spouse of a veteran receiving the discount if the surviving spouse holds the legal or beneficial title to the homestead, permanently resides thereon, and does not remarry. The amendment was approved by voters on November 3, 2019 and such amendment took effect on January 1, 2021. During the 2020 State legislative session, a constitutional amendment was proposed by the State Legislature which would extend the period for a homestead property owner to transfer the Homestead Assessment Differential to a new homestead from two years to three years (the "Portability A-35 Amendment"). Specifically, the Portability Amendment allows a homeowner who establishes a new homestead as of January 1 to have the new homestead assessed at less than just value if the homeowner received a prior homestead exemption as of January 1 of any of the immediately preceding three years. The Portability Amendment was approved by voters on November 3, 2019 and such amendment took effect on January 1, 2021. Additionally, the 2021 legislative session House Bill 7061 ("HB 7061") was passed and signed into law by the Governor which included certain provisions which apply to property taxes, including: (i) increasing a property tax discount from 50% to a full exemption for certain multifamily projects that provide affordable housing to low-income families; (ii) clarified the application of an exemption from ad valorem taxation for portions of property used for charitable, religious, scientific, or literary purposes; (iii) provided property tax relief for elevation of certain properties vulnerable to flooding; (iv) allowed certain transfers of property without loss of homestead protection; (v) provided tax exemptions for property used by an educational institution for educational purposes; (vi) required the tax collector to accept late payments on the first installment of prepaid property taxes, and removed the late payment penalty for those payments; and (vii) removes the requirement for certain hospitals to report charitable services. During the 2022 State legislative session, State House Bill 7071 was passed by the Senate and the House and signed into law by the Governor. This law contains provisions for tax relief and changes to tax policy including, but not limited to, the following: providing property tax relief for residential property rendered uninhabitable for 30 days or more due to a catastrophic event; providing property tax relief for property owners affected by the sudden and unforeseen collapse of a residential building; increasing the widows, widowers, blind, or totally and permanently disabled property tax exemption from $500 to $5,000; providing an alternative assessment methodology for land used in the production of aquaculture products; clarifying the extent of the homestead exemption on classified lands; updating the qualifying operations for the deployed service member property tax exemption; and providing alternative dates from which to calculate the 15-year required term of an affordable housing agreement for establishing qualification for a property tax exemption. This law took effect on July 1, 2022. Further, State House Bill 777 was passed by the Senate and the House, which would require a local government seeking voter approval to levy certain optional local taxes to be held at a general election. The bill applies to the following local option taxes: tourist development taxes; tourist impact taxes; ad valorem taxes levied by a children's services independent special district; county, municipal and school district voted millage increase and local option fuel taxes and took effect on October 1, 2022. Future Amendments Relating to Ad Valorem Taxation. Historically, various legislative proposals and constitutional amendments relating to ad valorem taxation have been introduced in each session of the State legislature. Many of these proposals have provided for new or increased exemptions to ad valorem taxation and limited increases in assessed valuation of certain types of property or have otherwise restricted the ability of local governments in the State to levy ad valorem taxes at then current levels. During the 2024 State Legislative session, the Florida Legislature passed House Joint Resolution 7017 (HJR 7017"). HJR 7017 amends Article VII, Section 6(a) of the State Constitution requiring an annual adjustment for inflation to the value of current or future homestead exemptions that applies to non- school taxes. HJR 7017 will be placed on the ballot at the November 2024 general election. If approved by 60% of the electors voting on the measures, the joint resolution would take effect on January 1, 2025. The amendment would result in annual increases in the homestead exemption applicable to certain A-36 properties that would reduce ad valorem tax collections. HJR 7017 would apply only to ad valorem taxes other than school district taxes. Executive Orders Related to Ad Valorem Taxation On October 20, 2022, Governor DeSantis signed Executive Order 22-242 that extended property tax payment deadlines for real property owners including personal homes and commercial property whose property was destroyed or otherwise rendered uninhabitable due to Hurricane Ian and located in one of the 26 counties (Lee County included) designated by Federal Emergency Management Agency. Ad valorem taxes and non-ad valorem assessments levied in 2022 shall be due and payable on January 1, 2023. Taxes and non-ad valorem assessments shall become delinquent on June 1, 2023.

The ACFR provides a comprehensive overview of the City's financial position and the results of operations for the past fiscal year and fulfills the requirements setforth by Florida Statutes Section 218.32, City Charter Article VII, Section 7.11 and Chapter 10.550, Rules of theAuditor General. These statutes and rules require all general-purpose local governments to publish a completeset of financial statements, each fiscal year, presented in conformity with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States (GAAP) and audited in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States by a firm of licensed certified public accountants. This ACFR consists of management's representations concerning the finances of the City of Tampa and theCity's management assumes full responsibility for the completeness and reliability of all the information presented in this report. The City's management has established a comprehensive internal control framework that is designed both to protect the City's assets from loss, theft, or misuse and to compile sufficient reliableinformation for the preparation of the City's financial statements in conformity with GAAP. Because the cost ofinternal controls should not exceed anticipated benefits, the City's comprehensive framework of internalcontrols has been designed to provide reasonable, rather than absolute, assurance that the financial statements will be free from material misstatement. As management, we assert that to the best of our knowledge and belief, this financial report is complete and reliable in all material respects. An annual financial audit, performed by independent certified public accountants, is required by FloridaStatutes. For Fiscal Year 2023, the independent audit was conducted by MSL CPAs & Advisors. The goal ofthe audit was to provide reasonable assurance that the financial statements of the City of Tampa, as of and for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2023, are free of material misstatements. The independent audit involved examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements,assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating theoverall financial statement presentation. The auditors expressed an opinion that the City's financial statementsas of and for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2023, are fairly stated in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. This is the most favorable conclusion and is commonly known as an "unmodified" or clean opinion. The Independent Auditor's Report is presented as the first component of the Financial Section of this report. The independent audit of the City's financial statements included a federally mandated "Single Audit"designed to meet the special needs of Federal grantor agencies. The standards governing Single Auditengagements require the independent auditor to report not only on the fair presentation of the financialstatements, but also on the audited government's internal controls and compliance with legal requirements, with special emphasis related to and involving the administration of Federal Grant Awards. These reports are in a separate Single Audit Section of the ACFR. 1 GAAP requires that management provide a narrative introduction, overview, and analysis to accompany the basic financial statements in the form of Management's Discussion and Analysis (MD&A). This Letter of Transmittal is designed to complement the MD&A and should be read in conjunction with it. The City's MD&A can be found immediately following the Independent Auditor's Report in the Financial Section.

To accommodate TIA’s continued increase in passenger traffic, TIA officials began updating the airport’s Master Plan for the 3,300-acre campus. The master plan will allow the airport to serve 34 million passengers each year.

Through collaborationwith the Florida Housing Coalition and local nonprofits, the Community Land Trust will support community-driven stable housing development. Increase Opportunities for Generational Wealth. The City expanded the availability of services that help accelerate home ownership and build wealth through the expansion of its Down Payment Assistance Program (D.A. R. E.) and Owner-Occupied Rehabilitation Program. These programs serve families that are between80% and 140% of the Area’s Median Income. The City continues to provide rental assistance, credit, andbudget counseling to help renters and existing homeowners achieve housing security and expand their housing options.

Additionally, multimodal impact fee policies, which have not been substantially updated in decades, will be modernized to reflect the City’s changing goals and values. Create premium transit corridors Establish transit corridors along the major transportation spine of the City, connecting the Westshore District toDowntown, and connecting Downtown to the University Area/Innovation District. Implement PIPES. Healthy infrastructure is the foundation of a strong City, which is why the City of Tampa launched the Progressive Infrastructure Plan to Ensure Sustainability (PIPES) program. With PIPES, the City of Tampa is investing in Tampa’s tomorrow by taking a proactive approach to renew our infrastructure, preventbreakdowns, and provide long-term, permanent fixes to our water and wastewater systems. The City hascompleted 22 PIPES projects worth over $66 million and has a total of 90 PIPES projects worth over $1 billion. Twenty-two (22) have been completed and closed out. The capital improvement budget is funded by water rate revenues and water system revenue bonds. Thedepartment’s capital improvement budget includes projects that provide for the replacement of aging waterdistribution system infrastructure, upgrades, and replacements needed at treatment facilities and remote pumpstations, and other projects that enhance the water system operations by leveraging the use of technology and proactively provide a sustainable water supply for the region. This plan includes $107.9 million of capital improvements to the City’s aging water distribution systeminfrastructure and facilities and includes the valve, hydrant, existing meter and fire line replacement programs,new water meter service installation, and water main replacement projects. The Water Production Program’s capital budget of $112.3 million includes capital improvements that optimizetreatment, improve treated water quality, reduce operating costs, and enhance treatment and operations suchas the construction of the high-service pump station, chemical system improvements, filter improvements, andwater department building improvements. Integrate the Existing Trail and Greenways. The City will integrate the existing trails and greenways system into the transportation network to provide safe and convenient alternatives to driving a car. The City executed a $24 million federal Better Utilizing Investments to Leverage Development (BUILD) grant agreement duringFY2022 and advertised the RFP for Procurement of a Design-Build contract to complete the final design andconstruction of the West River District Multi-Modal Network and Safety Improvements for an extension of 6miles of multi-modal facilities, including 2 miles along the west riverbank, which will ultimately result in over 12 miles of contiguous trails connecting Gandy Boulevard to Ybor City. In FY2023, the City’s Design-Build team began the initial stages of design, while maintaining constant communication with the community. Implement the Vision Zero Action Plan – Year 1. Vision Zero is a strategy that seeks to eliminate all traffic fatalities and severe injuries nationwide while increasing safe, healthy, and equitable mobility for all. The City iscommitted to integrating Vision Zero into all projects and programs. In FY2022, the City completed the VisionZero Action Plan which identified the most critical streets in the City as the “High Injury Network” and prioritizedthe highest needs for safety investments. In FY2023, the City will implement the actions identified in the Plan such as initiating a “Quick Build” program – a tactic to deploy safety treatments more rapidly across the City in a cost-effective way using semi-permanent materials. The first two Quick Build projects include 14thStreet/Avenida Republica de Cuba near Cuscaden Park and North Boulevard near the University of Tampacampus, both roads which were identified on the City’s high injury network. The City will continue with thesuccessful and award-winning Crosswalks to Classrooms program with artfully painted murals within crosswalks near schools, which signify to drivers that roads are places for people – not just cars. The City will also continue to plan Open Street and “Unlock the Block” events which temporarily close neighborhood roadsto cars and open streets to people for play, meeting neighbors, and enjoying the beautiful Florida outdoors. 8 B-9 Plan and Construct Complete Streets. The City will continue to utilize low-cost traffic control devices thatcan be installed quickly to improve operations and the safety and mobility experience of residents throughout neighborhood streets and adjacent collector and arterial roadways. These include installing enhanced crosswalks with Rectangular Rapid Flashing Beacons (RRFB’s), Dynamic Speed Feedback Signs, All-Waystop control at intersections, painted curb extensions, flex posts, and other signs, and pavement markingtreatments to reduce posted speeds on higher speed roadways. The City recently completed its sidewalk prioritization methodology which identified the locations with the greatest need for new sidewalks, resulting in more proactive and equitable use of limited resources to buildnew sidewalks in areas of the community where there are the greatest needs. During FY2023, the City will usefunds awarded as part of the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) and various sources to procure a newsidewalk construction contract to construct two (2) miles of new sidewalks. Strategic Goal 5 - Sustainability & Resilience Promote Connected, Healthy, and Vibrant Neighborhoods Through Sustainability and Resilience. The City will release a Climate Action & Equity Plan, kicking off several new projects and policies that addressalternative transportation, renewable energy, and community services that promote sustainable and resilientliving.

In our opinion, based on our audit and the report of the other auditors, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, the discretely presented component unit, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City, as of September 30, 2023, and the respective changes in financial position, and, where applicable, cash flows thereof and the respective budgetary comparison for the general fund for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. We did not audit the financial statements of the City’s Firefighters and Police Officers’ Pension Trust Fund, which represent 65%, 67%, and 158% of the assets, net position, and revenues/additions of the aggregate remaining fund information, respectively. Those statements were audited by other auditors whose reports thereon have been furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar as it relates to the amounts included for the City’s Firefighters and Police Officers’ Pension Trust Fund, is based solely on the reports of those other auditors. Basis for Opinions 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 Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are required to be independent of the City, and to meet our other ethical responsibilities, in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements relating to our audit. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion. Responsibilities of Management 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. In preparing the financial statements, management is required to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the City’s ability to continue as a going concern for twelve months beyond the financial statement date, including any currently known information that may raise substantial doubt shortly thereafter. 21 The Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council City of Tampa, Florida INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT (Continued) Auditor’s Responsibility for the Audit of the Financial Statements Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinions. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and therefore is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards and Government Auditing Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Misstatements are considered material if there is a substantial likelihood that, individually or in the aggregate, they would influence the judgment made by a reasonable user based on the financial statements. In performing an audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards and Government Auditing Standards, we: • Exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. • Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, and design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. • Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit 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 City’s internal control. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed. • Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluate the overall presentation of the financial statements. • Conclude whether, in our judgment, there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the City’s ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time. We are required to communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit, significant audit findings, and certain internal control-related matters that we identified during the audit. Emphasis-of-Matter As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, in the year ended September 30, 2023, the City adopted the provisions of Government Accounting Standards Board Statement (“GASBS”) Number 96, Subscription-Based IT Arrangements. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter. Required Supplementary Information Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the Management’s Discussion and Analysis and Required Supplementary Information (other than MD&A), as listed in the table of contents, be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such information, although not a part of the basic financial statements, is required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board, who considers it to be an essential part of financial reporting for placing the basic financial statements in an appropriate operational, economic, or historical context. We have applied certain limited procedures to the required supplementary information in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which consisted of inquiries of management about the methods of preparing the information and comparing the information for consistency with management’s responses to our inquiries, the basic financial statements, and other knowledge we obtained during our audit of the basic financial statements. We do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on the information because the limited procedures do not provide us with sufficient evidence to express an opinion or provide any assurance. 22 B-16 The Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council City of Tampa, Florida INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT (Concluded) Supplementary Information Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that collectively comprise the City’s basic financial statements as a whole. The combining and individual fund statements and schedules and the other supplemental information, as listed in the table of contents, are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the financial statements. The combining and individual fund financial statements and schedules and the other supplemental information are the responsibility of management and were derived from, and relate directly to, the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the financial statements. Such information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the financial statements and certain additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling such information directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the financial statements or to the financial statements themselves, and other additional procedures in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. In our opinion, the combining and individual fund statements and schedules and the other supplemental information are fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the financial statements as a whole. Other Information Management is responsible for the other information included in the annual report. The other information comprises the introductory, statistical sections and the continuing disclosure section, as listed in the table of contents, but does not include the basic financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. Our opinions on the basic financial statements do not cover the other information, and we do not express an opinion or any form of assurance thereon. In connection with our audit of the basic financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and consider whether a material inconsistency exists between the other information and the basic financial statements, or the other information otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work performed, we conclude that an uncorrected material misstatement of the other information exists, we are required to describe it in our report. Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated March 13, 2024, on our consideration of the City’s internal control over financial reporting and on our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements and other matters. The purpose of that report is to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over financial reporting and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on internal control over financial reporting or on compliance. That report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the City’s internal control over financial reporting and compliance.

The total fund balance in the general fund is $189.4 million, or 35.7% of general fund unadjusted expenditures of $530.5 million. Overview of the Financial Statements Government-wide Financial Statements. The first statements presented are the Government-wide Financial Statements.They are designed to provide readers with a broad overview of the City's finances in a manner similar to a private-sectorbusiness. There are two (2) Government-wide Financial Statements: The Statement of Net Position - This statement presents information on all the City's assets and liabilities, deferredinflows, and deferred outflows at the end of the fiscal year. The difference between the assets and deferred outflows ofresources and its liabilities and deferred inflows of resources is reported as net position. Over time, increases ordecreases in net position may serve as a useful indicator of whether the financial position of the City is improving or deteriorating. The Statement of Activities - This statement presents information showing how the City's net position changed during themost recent fiscal year. All changes in net position are reported as soon as the underlying event giving rise to the changeoccurs, regardless of the timing of related cash flows. Thus, revenues and expenses are reported in this statement forsome items that will only result in cash flows in future fiscal periods (e.g., uncollected taxes and earned but unused vacation leave). The government-wide financial statements reflect three (3) distinct activities: Governmental Activities - The Government-wide Financial Statements distinguish functions of the City that are principally supported by taxes and intergovernmental revenues (governmental activities). The governmental activities of the City include general government, public safety, environmental services, economic environment, and culture and recreation. Business-Type Activities - These activities are functions that are intended to recover all or a significant portion of theircosts through user fees and charges (business-type activities). The business-type activities of the City include the waterutility, wastewater utility, solid waste system, parking facilities, and golf courses. Component Units - The Government-wide Financial Statements include the City (known as the primary government) and the legally independently governed Tampa Historic Streetcar, Inc., for which the City is financially accountable. Financial information for this component unit is reported separately. The Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA), although legally independent, functions for all practical purposes as a department of the City and therefore has been included as an integral part of the primary government. The Government-wide Financial Statements can be found on pages 47-48 of this report. Fund Financial Statements. The fund financial statements provide more detailed information about the most significant funds - not the City as a whole. A fund is a grouping of related accounts that is used to maintain control over resources that have been segregated for specific activities or objectives. The City like other state and local governments, uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with finance-related legal requirements. All the funds of the City can bedivided into three categories: (1) governmental funds, (2) proprietary funds, and (3) fiduciary funds. 29 CITY OF TAMPA, FLORIDA Management's Discussion and Analysis (Unaudited) September 30, 2023 Governmental Funds. Governmental funds are used to account for essentially the same functions reported asgovernmental activities in the Government-wide Financial Statements. However, unlike the Government-wide FinancialStatements, governmental fund financial statements focus on near-term inflows and outflows of spendable resources, as well as on balances of spendable resources available at the end of the fiscal year. Such information may be useful in evaluating a government's near-term funding requirements. Because the focus of governmental funds is narrower than that of the Government-wide Financial Statements, it is useful tocompare the information presented for governmental funds with similar information presented for governmental activities inthe Government-wide Financial Statements. By doing so, readers may better understand the long-term impact of the City'snear-term funding decisions. Both the governmental fund Balance Sheet and the governmental fund Statement ofRevenues, Expenditures, and Changes in Fund Balances provide a reconciliation to facilitate this comparison betweengovernmental funds and governmental activities. The City maintains thirty-four (34) individual governmental funds. Information is presented separately in the governmental fund Balance Sheet and in the governmental fund Statement of Revenues, Expenditures, and Changes in Fund Balancesfor the general fund and the non-ad valorem bond capital projects fund, which are considered to be a major funds. Also,since the City adopts an annual appropriated budget for its general fund and other non-major governmental funds, abudgetary comparison statement has been provided for these funds to demonstrate compliance with the budget for this fiscal year. Data for the additional thirty-two (32) governmental funds are combined into a single aggregated presentation. Individual fund data for each of these non-major governmental funds are presented in the form of Combining Statements elsewhere in this report. The governmental fund financial statements can be found on pages 55-60 of this report. Proprietary Funds. The City maintains two different types of proprietary funds: (1) Enterprise funds and (2) InternalService Funds. Enterprise funds are used to report the same functions presented as business-type activities in the Government-wide Financial Statements. The City uses enterprise funds to account for its water utility, wastewater utility, solid waste system,parking facilities, and golf courses. Internal service funds are an accounting device used to accumulate and allocate costs internally among the City's variousfunctions. The City uses internal service funds to account for its fleet maintenance and consumer services (utility accounting division) functions. Because these services predominately benefit governmental rather than business-type functions, they have been included within governmental activities in the Government-wide Financial Statements. Proprietary funds provide the same type of information as the Government-wide Statements, only in more detail. Theproprietary fund financial statements provide information for the City's three major enterprise funds: water utility, wastewaterutility, and the solid waste system. The two non-major funds, the parking facilities and golf courses, are combined into a single aggregated presentation in the proprietary fund financial statements, as are the City's two internal service funds, fleet maintenance and consumer services (utility accounting division). Individual fund data for the non-major enterprise funds and the internal service funds are provided in the form of Combining Statements elsewhere in this report. The proprietary fund financial statements can be found on pages 65-70 of this report. 30 B-20 CITY OF TAMPA, FLORIDA Management's Discussion and Analysis (Unaudited) September 30, 2023 Fiduciary Funds. Fiduciary funds are used to account for resources held for the benefit of parties outside the government.Fiduciary funds are not reflected in the Government-wide Financial Statement because the resources of those funds are notavailable to support the City's programs. The fiduciary funds include the firefighters and police officers' (F&P) pension trust fund, the general employees' (GE) retirement trust fund, the rehabilitation loans fund, the subdivision streetlight fund, the interstate-highway expansion fund, and other custodial funds. The accounting used for fiduciary funds is much like thatused for proprietary funds. The fiduciary fund aggregate financial statements can be found on pages 75-77 of this report. Individual fund data is provided in the form of Combining Statements elsewhere in this report. Notes to the Financial Statements. The notes provide additional information that is essential to a full understanding ofthe data provided in the Government-wide and fund financial statements. The Notes to the Financial Statements can be found on pages 83-168 of this report. Other Information. In addition to the Basic Financial Statements and the accompanying notes, this report also presentscertain Required Supplementary Information (RSI), concerning the City's progress in funding its obligation to providepension and other post-employment benefits to its employees. Required Supplementary Information can be found on pages 171-183 of this report. The combining statements referred to earlier in connection with non-major governmental, non-major enterprise, internal service, and fiduciary funds are presented immediately following the required supplementary information on the pension trust funds. Combining and individual fund statements and schedules can be found on pages 187-263 of this report. OtherSupplementary Information pertaining to the City's financial activities is located on pages 269-273. Statistical Information. The statistical section, found on pages 279-297, presents detailed information as a context forunderstanding what the information in the financial statements, note disclosures, and required supplementary information indicates about the City's overall financial health. Financial Analysis of the Government-wide Financial Statements This section focuses on the net position and changes in net position of the City's governmental activities and business-type activities presented in the Government-wide Statement of Net Position and Statement of Activities. Statement of Net Position As noted earlier, the combined total net position of the City may serve over time as a useful indicator of Tampa's financialposition. In the case of the City, assets ($4.880 billion) and deferred outflows of resources ($527.5 million) exceededliabilities ($2.503 billion) and deferred inflows of resources ($118 million) by $2.787 billion (net position) at the close of themost recent fiscal year, an increase of $110 million (or 4.1%) over the total net position amount of $2.677 billion in the prior year. (This space intentionally left blank) 31 CITY OF TAMPA, FLORIDA Management's Discussion and Analysis (Unaudited) September 30, 2023 By far, the largest portion of the City's net position (74.5%) reflects its investment in capital assets (e.g., land, buildings, machinery, and equipment) less any related outstanding debt used to acquire those assets. The City uses these capitalassets to provide services to citizens; consequently, these assets are not available for future spending. Although the City'sinvestment in its capital assets is reported net of related debt, it should be noted that resources needed to repay this debtmust be provided from other sources since the capital assets themselves cannot be used to liquidate these liabilities. Net position invested in capital assets increased by $186.7 million (or 9.9%) during the year {to $2.077 billion (FY2023) from$1.890 billion (FY2022)}. An additional portion of the City's assets, restricted net position at $59.4 million (or 2.2%), represents resources subject to external restrictions on how they may be used, e.g., for debt and capital improvements. The restricted net position increased $5.8 million, (or 10.8%), during the year (to $59.4 million in FY2023 from $53.6 million in FY2022). The remaining balance of unrestricted net position at $650.7 million decreased $82.4 million (or 11.2%) during the year. Itis used to meet the City's ongoing obligations to citizens, creditors, and other agencies (e.g., the CRA, grantors, etc.). 32 B-21 CITY OF TAMPA, FLORIDA Management's Discussion and Analysis (Unaudited) September 30, 2023 The City is able to report positive balances in all categories of net position, for the government as a whole, increasing at4.1%. The City's separate governmental activities increased 3.4%, while the business-type activities grew 4.7%, as illustrated in the chart below: City of Tampa'sNet Position(in thousands) Governmental Business-Type Activities Activities Total 2023 2022 2023 2022 2023 2022 Current and Other Assets $ 712,151 $ 766,034 $ 882,575 $ 958,477 $ 1,594,726 $ 1,724,511 Capital Assets 1,587,183 1,435,845 1,698,415 1,543,167 3,285,598 2,979,012 Total Assets 2,299,334 2,201,879 2,580,990 2,501,644 4,880,324 4,703,523 Deferred Outflows of Resources 475,880 134,431 51,652 23,418 527,532 157,849 Long-Term Liabilities Outstanding 1,384,212 916,306 931,576 907,017 2,315,788 1,823,323 Other Liabilities 105,140 146,603 81,940 65,248 187,080 211,851 Total Liabilities 1,489,352 1,062,909 1,013,516 972,265 2,502,868 2,035,174 Deferred inflows of Resources 85,330 112,008 32,672 37,184 118,002 149,192 Net Position: Net Investment in Capital Assets 1,075,230 1,021,040 1,001,665 869,177 2,076,895 1,890,217 Restricted 47,062 41,544 12,300 12,104 59,362 53,648 Unrestricted 78,240 98,809 572,489 634,332 650,729 733,141 Total Net Position $ 1,200,532 $ 1,161,393 $ 1,586,454 $ 1,515,613 $ 2,786,986 $ 2,677,006 Governmental Activities. The Statement of Activities divides the activities between governmental activities andbusiness-type activities. Governmental activities decreased the City's net position by $5.3 million (before transfers) andincreased net position $39.1 million after transfers {e.g., transfers from the enterprise funds for Payment in Lieu of Taxes (PILOT) and Payment in Lieu of Franchise Fees (PILOFF)}. Key elements of this change are as follows: Total revenues were up $98.7 million to $831.5 million from $732.8 million in the prior year. A significant portion of thisincrease is attributed to an increase in property taxes, business tax, sales tax, and utility services taxes due to the return ofpositive economic conditions, plus increased collections of the special assessments, red-light camera revenue, and increases in intergovernmental revenues.Property taxes increased $40.3 million. These increases continue to be the direct result of the economic recoverybeing experienced in the Tampa Bay Area. The City's millage rate of 6.2076 continues to be well below themaximum 10.0 millage rate allowed by Florida Statutes.Most expenses increased this fiscal year. Total expenses increased $100.5 million (or 13.6%) up to $836.9 million in 2023 from $736.4 million in 2022. Major increases were in general government services and public safety for personnel and related employee benefits costs. Public safety expenses of $373.4 million are offset by $101.6 million of revenues in two categories: charges for services($51.7 million) and operating and capital grants and contributions ($49.9 million). Overall, 38.8% of offsetting revenues for governmental activity expenses come from specific charges for services, operating grants and capital grants, and contributions. In addition, 57% of revenue supporting governmental activities comes from property taxes (36.1%) and othertaxes (20.9%). 33 CITY OF TAMPA, FLORIDA Management's Discussion and Analysis (Unaudited) September 30, 2023 The table and graph below provide the program revenues and expenses for each governmental and business-type activity: City of Tampa's Change in Net Position(in thousands) Governmental Business-Type Activities Activities Total 2023 2022 2023 2022 2023 2022 Revenues: Program Revenues: Charges for Services $ 143,696 $ 124,688 $ 483,673 $ 432,995 $ 627,369 $ 557,683 Operating Grants and Contributions 102,466 126,060 1,499 2,365 103,965 128,425 Capital Grants and Contributions 78,741 81,952 5,818 7,766 84,559 89,718 General Revenues: Property Taxes 301,706 261,361 - - 301,706 261,361 Other Taxes 175,259 165,275 - - 175,259 165,275 Investment Earnings (Loss) 29,675 (26,717) 22,996 (24,154) 52,671 (50,871) Other - 204 602 69 602 273 Total Revenues 831,543 732,823 514,588 419,041 1,346,131 1,151,864 Expenses: General Government Services 196,951 164,307 - - 196,951 164,307 Public Safety 373,418 328,865 - - 373,418 328,865 Environmental Services 117,462 106,408 - - 117,462 106,408 Economic and Physical Environment 49,946 45,471 - - 49,946 45,471 Culture and Recreation 82,808 74,664 - - 82,808 74,664 Interest on Long-Term Debt 16,298 16,661 - - 16,298 16,661 Water Utility - - 134,591 108,449 134,591 108,449 Wastewater Utility - - 135,734 117,484 135,734 117,484 Solid Waste System - - 98,849 86,179 98,849 86,179 Parking Facilities - - 22,750 17,612 22,750 17,612 Golf Courses - - 7,344 6,167 7,344 6,167 Total Expenses 836,883 736,376 399,268 335,891 1,236,151 1,072,267 Change in Net Position Before Transfers (5,340)(3,553) 115,320 83,150 109,980 79,597 Transfers 44,479 41,461 (44,479)(41,461) - - Change in Net Position 39,139 37,908 70,841 41,689 109,980 79,597 Net Position - 10/1/2022 1,161,393 1,123,485 1,515,613 1,473,924 2,677,006 2,597,409 Net Position - 9/30/2023 $ 1,200,532 $ 1,161,393 $ 1,586,454 $ 1,515,613 $ 2,786,986 $ 2,677,006 34 B-22 CITY OF TAMPA, FLORIDA Management's Discussion and Analysis (Unaudited) September 30, 2023 35 Revenuesby Source-Governmental Activities $400 $350 $300 $250 Expenses Revenues $150 $100 $50 $- Public Safety 35 z General Government Expenses and Program Revenues Governmental Activities Environmental Services Economic Environment Cultureand Recreation Intereston Long-TermDebt Communication ServicesTax 2% CITY OF TAMPA,FLORIDA Management's Discussion and Analysis (Unaudited) September 30,2023 Sales Tax 9% UtilityTaxes 7% MotorFuelTaxes 2% PropertyTaxes 36% Investment Earnings 4% taiGrantsand mtributions 10% Operating Grants and Contributions 12%BusinessTax 1% Chargesfor Services 17% O 2 $200 CITY OF TAMPA, FLORIDA Management's Discussion and Analysis (Unaudited) September 30, 2023 Business-Type Activities. Business-type activities increased the City's net position by $115.3 million (before transfers) and$70.8 million after transfers (e.g., transfers for Payment in Lieu of Taxes (PILOT) and Payment in Lieu of Franchise Fees(PILOFF) to the governmental funds). Key elements of this change are as follows: Charges for services increased $50.7 million (to $483.7 million in 2023 from $433 million in 2022). As discussedmore fully in the proprietary fund section below, water operating revenues increased by $24.7 million (to $177.9million from $153.2 million); wastewater operating revenues increased $10.3 million (to $152.3 million from $142million); and solid waste operating revenues increased $6.9 million (to $112.9 million from $106 million).Operating expenses increased 18.9%, at $399.3 million, compared to $335.9 million in the prior year. As the bar chart below illustrates, unlike governmental activities, business-type activities are typically able to pay forthemselves through specific user charges and other revenue sources. 36 B-23 CITY OF TAMPA, FLORIDA Management's Discussion and Analysis (Unaudited) September 30, 2023 Fund Level Financial Analysis Governmental Funds.As noted earlier, the City uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with finance related legal requirements. These funds include governmental funds, proprietary funds, and other fund types. The generalfund, community redevelopment agency special revenue funds, and a variety of special revenue, debt service, and capitalproject funds are recorded in the governmental funds. The focus of the City's governmental funds is to provide informationon near-term inflows, outflows, and balances of spendable resources. Such information is useful in assessing the City's funding requirements. In particular, unassigned fund balance may serve as a useful measure of a government's net resources at the end of the fiscal year. As of September 30, 2023, the City's governmental funds reported combined ending fund balances of $541.5 million. Approximately 74.8% of this total amount ($405.3 million) is non-spendable, restricted, committed, or assigned, leaving $136 million (25.2%) as unassigned. The general fund is the chief operating fund of the City. As of September 30, 2023, the unassigned fund balance for the general fund was $137.0 million, while total fund balance was $189.4 million. As a measure of the general fund's liquidity, it may be useful to compare both unassigned fund balance and total fund balance to total fund expenditures. Unassigned fundbalance represents 23% of the total general fund's calculated expenditures, while the total fund balance represents 32%. The City's policy requires a minimum of 20% of expenditures for its general fund. The fund balance of the City's general fund increased $19.1 million during the current fiscal year as a result of the following: Increase in property taxes due to the economic recovery that is being experienced in the Tampa Bay area.The amended general fund budget reflected an anticipated decrease in fund balance of $40.4 million due toincreased appropriations for public safety, culture and recreation, and general government services. 37 CITY OF TAMPA, FLORIDA Management's Discussion and Analysis (Unaudited) September 30, 2023 Licenses and permits wrere $11.2 million more than budgeted due to an increase in franchise fees from electricutilities. Revenues of $591.9 million were $89.4 million higher compared to 2022 (at $502.5 million). Property tax revenues of $301.7 million increased $40.3 million compared to the prior year's taxes of $261.4 million.Expenditures at $530.5 million, were $49.5 million higher than the prior year at $481 million. Public safetyexpenditures increased $28.8 million due to increased police and fire officers personnel and related employeebenefit costs. Culture and recreation expenditures increased $6.7 million for personnel and other contractual costs. Environmental Services expenditures increased by $3.2 million for personnel costs, with General Governmental Services increasing $4.1 million in total for personnel and related employee benefit costs. Proprietary Funds. Include the water, wastewater, solid waste, parking, and golf course enterprise funds, as well as thefleet maintenance and consumer services (utility accounting) internal service funds. In the water utility fund, the change in net position before contributions and transfers was $55.7 million, a $24.3million increase compared to the prior year. Operating revenues increased by $24.7 million due to increased waterconsumption rates. Expenses increased by $22.8 million for personnel, chemical, construction, and repair costs.In the wastewater utility fund, the change in net position before contributions and transfers was $24.9 million, an increase from the prior year of $6.8 million. Operating revenues increased $10.4 million due to utility rate increases. Operating expenses of $122.9 million increased $13.7 million for chemical costs and infrastructure improvementscompared to the prior year of $109.2 million.In the solid waste system fund, the change in net position before contributions and transfers was $17.2 million, a$533 thousand decrease over the prior year as operating revenues increased $7.2 million for energy and electric sales, and operating expenses increased $12.7 million due to facility expansion, repairs, and maintenance.Unrestricted net position of the water utility amounted to $296.4 million, for the wastewater utility $192.9 million, forthe solid waste system $54.5 million, and for the non-major funds $28.7 million. The total change in net position forthe three major funds (water, wastewater, and solid waste) was $46.3 million increase, $10 million increase, and$7.1 million increase, respectively. Other factors concerning the finances of those funds are addressed in the discussion of the City's business-type activities. General Fund Budgetary Highlights The differences between the original budget and the final amended budget reflect a $22.4 million decrease in appropriationsfor the general fund. The increased/decreased appropriations are as follows: $6 million increase in total revenues, more specifically, to charges for services and intergovernmental revenues. $2.1 million increase to public safety for increased personnel and employee benefit related costs.$2.2 million increase to culture and recreation.$2 thousand decrease to environmental services.$7.8 million decrease to general governmental services.$26.7 million increase in transfers out. The differences between the final budget and actual revenues reflect a positive variance of $31.8 million (actual amountabove the budgeted amount) and can be summarized as follows: Taxes were $9.7 million over the budgeted amount due to increased collections in property taxes and utility taxes. Intergovernmental revenues were $2.2 million more than budgeted due to State revenue sharing and County publicsafety revenues.Licenses and Permits were $11.2 million more than budgeted due to higher than expected franchise fees.Charges for Services were $2 million more than budgeted mostly due to convention center revenues. Fines and Forfeitures were $622 thousand more than budgeted mainly due to higher than expected Traffic Safety Improvement "Red Light Camera Program" revenues.Investment Earnings were $6.1 million higher than budgeted due to allocable share in market value of investmentsfor the general fund. 38 B-24 CITY OF TAMPA, FLORIDA Management's Discussion and Analysis (Unaudited) September 30, 2023 Capital Asset and Debt Administration Capital Assets. The City's investment in capital assets for its governmental and business-type activities as of September30, 2023, amounts to $3.286 billion (net of accumulated depreciation).

In FY2023, the City implemented GASB Statement No. 96, Subscription-Based Information Technology Arrangements(SBITA). The pronouncement established accounting and financial reporting standards for use of vendors’ software in stateand local governments.

Governmental funds report capital outlays as expenditures. However, in the statement of activities the cost of those assets is allocated over their estimated useful lives and reported as depreciation expense. This is the amount by which capital outlays exceeded depreciation in the current period. Capital Asset Transactions (3,934,224) Capital Outlay 204,351,957 Depreciation Expense (68,425,910) 131,991,823 Some expenses reported in the statement of activities do not require the use of current financial resources and, therefore, are not reported as expenditures in governmental funds.

Neither transaction, however, has any effect on net position. Also, governmental funds report the effect of insurance cost, premiums, discounts, and similar items when debt is first issued, whereas these amounts are deferred and amortized in the statement of activities. This amount is the net effect of these differences in the treatment of long-term debt and related items.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The accounting and reporting policies of the City of Tampa (the City) conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) as applicable to governmental entities. The Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) is the accepted standard-setting body for establishing governmentalaccounting and financial reporting principles, which are primarily set forth in the GASB's Codification ofGovernmental Accounting and Financial Reporting Standards (GASB Codification). The more significant of theseaccounting policies are summarized below. A. Financial Reporting Entity The City of Tampa is a municipal corporation that was incorporated in 1887 and is governed by an elected Mayor and a seven (7) member Council. The City was created and is governed under the laws of Florida numbers 745 ofthe year 1855, and 3779 of the year 1887. The City provides traditional governmental services such as publicsafety, culture and recreation, and environmental services, water and wastewater services, solid waste disposal,and various parking services. This report includes all funds, departments, agencies, boards and commissions, and other organizational units thatare administered by the mayor and/or controlled by, or dependent upon the City Council as set forth in the CityCharter. The City, a primary government, has reviewed for inclusion all potential component units for which it maybe financially accountable, and other organizations for which the nature and significance of their relationship with the City are such that exclusion would cause the City's financial statements to be misleading or incomplete. GASB Codification Section 2100 (Reporting Entity), has set forth criteria to be considered in determining financial accountability. This criteria includes appointing a voting majority of an organization's governing body and (1) theability of the City to impose its will on that organization, or (2) the potential for the organization to provide specificfinancial benefits to or impose specific financial burdens on the City. Blended Component Units: There are three (3) component units, which are legally separate from the City, but are so intertwined with the City that they are, in substance, the same as the City. These are the Community Redevelopment Agency, the Firefighters and Police Officers' Pension Fund, and the General Employees' PensionFund. They are reported as part of the City and blended into the appropriate funds, as listed below: Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA): Was created in 1982 under part 3 of Chapter 163 of the Florida Statutes and City of Tampa ordinance numbers 2119-H and 2871-H. Its sole purpose is to administer funds distributed via state law for blighted areas within the City. The CRA board is composed of the same seven (7)members of City Council; therefore, the City Council has absolute influence over the CRA board. Inaccordance with Florida Statute 163.387, the amount and source of revenues into, and the amount andpurpose of expenditures from the CRA fund, including the amount of debt principal and interest paid during the current year, as well as the remaining amount of indebtedness to which revenues of the fund are pledged, are detailed in the supplemental schedule. The complete financial statements for the CRA may be obtained at theCity's Accounting Office at 306 East Jackson Street, Tampa, Florida or by visiting the City's websitehttps://www.tampagov.net/accounting. The financial statements are presented as a non-major special revenuefund in the financial statements of the City. 83 CITY OF TAMPA, FLORIDANOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTSFOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2023 NOTE 1 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - (Continued) Firefighters and Police Officers' in the City of Tampa (F&P Pension Fund): Was created by a special act of the Florida legislature and provides defined pension benefits to sworn, certified members of the Tampa FireRescue Department and the Tampa Police Department. The F&P Pension Fund is administered by a nine (9)member Board of Trustees consisting of three (3) firefighter members elected by active and retired firefighters,three (3) police officer members elected by active and retired police officers, and three (3) members of the City's administration appointed by the Mayor. The F&P Pension Fund benefits are a subject of mandatory collective bargaining, and as such, any changes to the pension fund must be collectively bargained and agreedupon between the City and both the fire and police unions, submitted to the local delegation with an actuarialimpact statement, enacted by the state legislature and signed into law by the governor. As plan sponsor, theCity has the obligation to maintain the actuarial soundness of the pension fund and makes quarterly pension contributions to the fund at a ratio of 1:1.34 of pension contributions made by active and participating firefighters and police officers as determined each year by the fund's actuary professional. The actuariallydetermined quarterly contributions are reflected in the City’s annual budget. The F&P Pension Fund is asemi-autonomous entity and issues separate financial statements of the fund. The fund's financial statementsmay be obtained from its administrative office located at 3001 North Boulevard, Tampa, FL, 33603 and by visiting the City's website https://www.tampagov.net/fire-and-police-pension. These financial statements are also blended in the City's Fiduciary Funds section. General Employees' Pension Plan (GE Pension Fund): The GE Pension Fund is administered by a seven (7)member Board of Trustees. Three of the members are appointed by the Mayor, three (3) of the members are to be employees participating in the fund and elected by active members who have not taken the Deferred Retirement Option Plan (DROP) option of the fund (retirees are not eligible to vote), and the remaining memberis the City of Tampa's Chief Financial Officer. The City contributes to the GE Pension Fund, on behalf of allfull-time and part-time non-sworn City employees and former employees of the City, whose current governmental employees make contributions for those employees. The GE Pension Fund is administered by an independent Board of Trustees and is accounted for as a separate pension trust fund. The laws of Floridaauthorize this fund. Each qualified employee is included in one of two separate single-employer defined benefit retirement plans. The two (2) plans cover full-time and part-time employees and are reported herein as part of the City's reporting entity. The two (2) plans are: General Employees' Pension Plan Division A - eligible full-time and part-time non-sworn employeeshired prior to October 1, 1981, no social security component and is currently closed to new enrollees. General Employees' Retirement Pension Plan Division B - eligible full-time and part-time non-sworn employees hired on and after October 1, 1981, has a social security component and is open to new enrollees. The Florida Constitution requires local governments to make the actuarially determined contributions to theirdefined benefit plans. The Florida Division of Retirement reviews and approves each local government's actuarialreport to ensure its appropriateness for funding purposes. The GE Pension Plan does not issue a stand-alone financial report. The financial report is included in the Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR) and it may be obtained by visiting the City's website https://www.tampagov.net/general-employee-retirement-fund. 84 B-48 CITY OF TAMPA, FLORIDANOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTSFOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2023 NOTE 1 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - (Continued) Discretely Presented Component Unit: A component unit is an entity which is legally separate from the City, butis financially accountable to the City, or whose relationship with the City is such that exclusion would cause theCity's financial statements to be misleading or incomplete. The component unit is reported separately to emphasize that it is legally separate from the primary government and is governed by a separate board, as listed below: The Tampa Historic Streetcar, Inc. (Streetcar): Was created as a non-profit organization and is exempt fromincome taxes under the provisions of Internal Revenue Service Section 501(a) as an organization described in section 501(c)(3). In 1998, an interlocal agreement was enacted between the Hillsborough Area Regional Transit Authority (HART) and the City, authorized by City of Tampa ordinance numbers 97-1595 and 98-573,specifying terms for the funding, construction, and management of a historic streetcar system. In 2001, anoperator’s agreement authorized by City of Tampa ordinance number 2001-045 was made between the City,HART, and the Streetcar. Under this agreement, HART manages the Streetcar for the City, and is reimbursed for operating costs. It was renewed in 2011 for another five year term, until the year 2016. The agreement has been extended by seven one year extensions the latest expired on September 30, 2023 and entered into anew five year term agreement which will expire on September 30, 2028. According to the terms of theseagreements, the City appoints a voting majority of the board members of the Streetcar, must approve theannual budget, and is responsible for any deficit of the Streetcar operations. Complete financial statements for the Tampa Historic Streetcar, Inc. may be obtained at the City’s AccountingOffice at 306 East Jackson Street, Tampa, Florida 33602 or by visiting the City's websitehttps://www.tampagov.net/accounting. B. Basic Financial Statements The basic financial statements include both citywide and fund level statements. The City, as the primarygovernment, is reported separately from its discrete component unit. The citywide statements report on allactivities of the City and its discrete component units except those that are fiduciary in nature. Financial statements for fiduciary activities, such as employee pension plans, are presented in a separate section of this report. Both the citywide and fund level statements classify primary activities of the City as eithergovernmental activities, which are primarily supported by taxes and intergovernmental revenues, or business typeactivities, which are primarily supported by user fees and charges. Government-wide financial statements include a Statement of Net Position and a Statement of Activities. These statements report on the government as a whole, both the primary government and its component units, andprovide a consolidated financial picture of the government. As part of the consolidation process, interfund activitiesare eliminated to avoid distorted financial results. The amounts reported as internal balances represent theresidual amounts due between governmental and business-type activities. Fiduciary Funds of the government are not included in the presentation since these resources are not available for general government funding purposes. The Statement of Net Position reports all financial and capital resources of the City’s governmental andbusiness-type activities. It is presented in a net position format (assets plus deferred outflows less liabilities lessdeferred inflows equal net position). It is shown with three components: (1) net investment in capital assets; (2)restricted net position; and (3) unrestricted net position. In addition to assets, the Statement of Net Position reports a separate section for deferred outflows of resources, which represents a consumption of net position that applies to a future period(s), and will not be recognized as an outflow of resources (expense/expenditure) until then. Inaddition to liabilities, the Statement of Net Position reports a separate section for deferred inflows of resources,which represents an acquisition of net position that applies to a future period(s), and will not be recognized as aninflow of resources (revenue) until that time. 85 CITY OF TAMPA, FLORIDANOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTSFOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2023 NOTE 1 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - (Continued) The Statement of Activities reports functional categories of programs provided by the City, and demonstrates how and what degree those programs are supported by specific revenues. Program revenues are classified into three categories: (1) charges for services; (2) operating grants andcontributions; and (3) capital grants and contributions. Charges for services refer to direct recovery fromcustomers for services rendered. Grants and contributions refer to revenues restricted for specific programs whose use may be restricted further to operational or capital items. The general revenues sections displays revenues collected that help support all functions of the government. The fund financial statements follow and report additional and detailed information about the City’s operations formajor funds individually, and non-major funds in the aggregate for governmental, proprietary and fiduciary funds. A reconciliation is provided that converts the results of governmental fund accounting to the government-wide presentation. C. Measurement Focus, Basis of Accounting, and Financial Statement Presentation The government-wide financial statements, as well as the fund financial statements for proprietary funds and fiduciary funds, are reported using the economic resources measurement focus, and the accrual basis of accounting. Property taxes are recognized in the period for which they are levied. Other revenues are recognizedin the period for which they are earned and expenses are recognized when incurred. When both restricted andunrestricted resources are available for use, it is the City's policy to use restricted resources first, then unrestrictedresources as needed. Operating revenues shown for proprietary operations generally result from producing or providing goods andservices such as water, wastewater and solid waste services. Operating expenses include all costs related toproviding the service or product. These costs include salaries and benefits, supplies, travel, contract services,depreciation, administrative expenses, and/or other expenses directly related to the cost of services. All other revenue and expenses not meeting these definitions are reported as non-operating revenues and expenses. All governmental fund financial statements are reported using a current financial resources measurement focusand a modified accrual basis of accounting. Under the modified accrual basis of accounting, revenues arerecognized in the accounting period in which they become both measurable and due to finance expenditures of the current period. Available means collectible within the current period, or soon enough thereafter, to be used to pay liabilities of the current period within 60 days of the end of the fiscal year and jointly assessed taxes collectedthrough other governments, are within 90 days. Because different measurement focuses and bases of accounting are used in the government-wide Statement of Net Position and in the governmental funds Balance Sheets, amounts reported as restricted fund balances in governmental funds may be different from amounts reported as restricted net position in the Statement of NetPosition. Property taxes, when levied for, franchise taxes, investment earnings, and most charges for services are recorded as earned since they are measurable and available. Licenses and permits, fines and forfeitures, and miscellaneous revenues are recorded as revenues when received in cash because they are generally not measurable until received. A significant portion of the City's grants are intergovernmental grants and they are voluntary non-exchangetransactions. Funds from these transactions are deemed to be earned and reported as revenue when such funds have been expended towards the designated purpose and when eligibility requirements are met, if applicable and when such funds are available. 86 B-49 CITY OF TAMPA, FLORIDANOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTSFOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2023 NOTE 1 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - (Continued) Expenditures in the governmental funds are generally recognized under the modified accrual basis of accounting when the related fund liability is incurred and due. Exceptions to this general rule include: (1) accumulated sick pay and accumulated vacation pay, which are not reported until they are matured and due; (2) prepaid insurance andsimilar items, which are reported only on the balance sheet and do not affect expenditures; (3) principal andinterest on long-term debt are recognized at the fund level in the debt service funds when funded; (4) net pension liability (NPL), deferred inflows and outflows, Other Post-Employment Benefits (OPEB), and claims and judgments, which are long-term liabilities and estimates that do not impact current expenditures. Budgets for governmentalfunds are also prepared on the modified accrual basis. The City charges centralized services through the general fund and internal service funds to functional activities through various charge methods. Expenses reported for functional activities include these indirect expenses, including an administrative component. D. Major Governmental Fund The City has two (2) major governmental funds, which are the general fund, and the non-ad valorem bond capital projects fund. . 1. General Fund - the general operating fund of the City, accounting and reporting for all financial resources ofthe City, except those that are accounted and reported for in other funds. Funds combined in the generalfund are the self-insurance fund and the utilities services tax special revenue fund. The self insurance fundis used to account for risk management insurance activity related to health, workers' compensation, various employee benefits, general liability, property insurance, and safety monitoring. The utilities services tax special revenue fund is used to account for taxes levied on public utilities and the revenues are transferredto the various debt service and capital improvements funds for the payment of bonded debt servicerequirements and capital projects. 2. Non-Ad Valorem Bond Capital Projects Fund -The fund consists of four (4) separate bond funds, Non-Ad Valorem Revenue Note, Series 2021A, Non-Ad Valorem Bonds CIP Fund, Series 2016, Non-Ad Valorem Bonds Capital Improvement Projects (CIP) Fund, Series 2021B, and Non-Ad Valorem Bonds CIP FundSeries 2022. These bonds are used to provide debt funding for various governmental facilities andtransportation capital projects. These projects include renovations to the Tampa Convention Center, theconstruction of the Hanna Avenue Municipal Center, and other various building and infrastructure improvements throughout the city E. Major Proprietary (Enterprise) Funds The City has three (3) major enterprise funds. They are the water utility, wastewater utility, and solid waste systemfund(s). 1. Water Utility Fund - accounts for the activities of the City’s water production and distribution operations. TheCity operates a water treatment plant and water distribution system.

Internal Service Funds The City has two (2) internal services funds. They are the fleet maintenance and consumer services funds. 1. Fleet Maintenance Fund - accounts for the operation of the City’s fleet of police, fire and rescue vehicles, environmental services, and public utilities trucks, and many other types of on and off road equipment. 2. Consumer Services Fund - accounts for costs related to utility billings, collections and customer service. G. Fiduciary Funds The City has three (3) fiduciary funds. They are the pension funds, which includes the Tampa Firefighters & Police (F&P) Officers' and the General Employees' (GE) Pension funds and the Custodial funds. 1. Pension Trust Funds - accounts for the activities of the Tampa Firefighters & Police Officers' PensionFund and the General Employees' Pension Fund, which accumulate resources for pension benefits anddisability payments to qualified retirees. 2. Custodial Funds - are custodial in nature and do not involve measurements of results of operations. The City, as an agent, collects and holds resources for individuals, private organizations, and other governments. They are reported using the economic resources measurement focus. The custodial funds are used to account forresources held for the rehabilitation of housing loans, subdivision streetlight programs, interstate-highwayexpansion, and advisory boards and community initiatives. H. Assets, Liabilities, Deferred Inflows/Outflows, and Equity 1. Cash and Investments - The City’s cash include cash on hand, demand deposits, equity in pooled cash and investments. The equity in pooled cash and investments represents a fund’s share of a cash and investment pool maintained by the City for use by all funds, except the pension funds and funds with agreements thatrequire separate bank accounts. All investments are reported at fair value. For the purpose of the Statementof Cash Flows, the City considers cash to be highly liquid investments (including restricted assets) with anoriginal maturity of three (3) months or less when purchased. Interest earned from investments purchased with pooled cash is allocated to each participating fund based on the fund’s average equity balance, except that, as required by City Charter, interest attributable to the utilities service tax fund (combined in the general fund forfinancial statement presentation) and the utilities services tax capital projects fund is deposited to the generalfund. As required by bond indenture provisions, interest earned on investments related to the local option gastax debt service fund is allocated to the local option gas tax special revenue fund. Funds that incur negative equity in pooled cash and investments during the year incur a charge for interest. Funds used to account for federal and state grants have negative equity in pooled cash and investments throughout the year due to thereimbursement basis of the grant programs. The general fund absorbs charges for interest to these funds. 2. Receivables and Payables - Accounts receivable balances are shown net of the allowance for uncollectibleaccounts. The allowance amount in the enterprise funds is based on historical experience. In the governmental funds, the allowance varies based on management estimates. Water and related wastewater charges to customers are based on actual water consumption. Consumption is determined on a monthly cyclebasis. The City recognizes as revenue the estimated unbilled consumption at fiscal year-end. Unearnedrevenue represents amounts received, which have not been earned. Accounts payable are recorded on the modified accrual basis in the governmental funds, and the accrual basis in the enterprise funds and the fiduciary funds. Under the modified accrual basis, expenditures are recordedwhen the fund liability is incurred and due. 88 B-50 CITY OF TAMPA, FLORIDANOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTSFOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2023 NOTE 1 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - (Continued) 3. Inventories and Prepaid Items - Inventories of expendable supplies held for consumption and prepaid items are reported at cost, using the consumption method. 4. Capital Assets - Capital assets which include land, buildings and improvements, improvements other than buildings, machinery and equipment, intangible assets, right to use lease and information technology software assets, and infrastructure (e.g., roads, bridges, sidewalks, and similar items) are reported in the applicablegovernmental or business-type activities columns in the government-wide financial statements and in theproprietary and fiduciary fund financial statements. Except for internally generated software, capital assets aredefined by the City as assets that are used in operations, have an estimated useful life of one or more years, and meet the cost threshold based on the asset category. For the purpose of fixed asset cost thresholds, there are four asset categories: 1) Land – all of which are capitalized; 2) Machinery and Equipment and non-land Intangibleassets - $5,000 threshold; 3) capital improvement project assets - $10,000 threshold, 4) Right To UseSubscription-Based Information Technology assets - $250,000 annual cost or $1,000,000 all years cost. Suchassets are recorded at historical cost. Donated capital assets and assets received in a service concession arrangement are recorded at acquisition value. For intangible assets, the City maintains a $250,000 threshold for internally generated software related assetsand $5,000 for software purchased from an outside source. GASB Statement No. 51, Accounting andFinancial Reporting for Intangible Assets, is the Authoritative Statement that requires the capitalization of intangible assets. The costs of normal maintenance and repairs that do not either increase an asset's value or materially extendits life, are not capitalized. Major outlays for capital assets and improvements are capitalized by assuming thatthey are put in service at mid-year, regardless of when they were actually purchased during the year. Interestincurred during the construction phase of capital assets of business-type activities is expensed. Infrastructure, buildings and improvements, and improvements other than buildings are depreciated on astraight-line basis utilizing the mid-year convention. Machinery and equipment and non-land Intangible assetsare depreciated on a straight-line basis. Land and Land infrastructures, which consist of easements and right ofways, are not depreciable. Buildings and Improvements 10 - 40 years Improvements Other Than Buildings 10 - 75 years Software 5 years Vehicles 5 - 15 years Office Equipment 5 - 10 years Computer Equipment 5 years Other Equipment 5 - 15 years Infrastructure 10 - 40 years In FY2023, the City of Tampa implemented GASB 96. This resulted in the capitalization of a new type of asset,Intangible Right To Use Subscription-Based Information Technology Arrangement (SBITA) asset. A related SBITALiability is recorded at the present value of subscription payments to be made during the SBITA term, which is the period during which the City has a non-cancellable right to use the software plus periods covered by reasonably certain to be exercised options to extend and termination options reasonably certain to not be exercised. Theinterest rate to calculate the present value is the City’s incremental borrowing rate. The SBITA asset is recorded atthe liability amount plus capitalizable implementation costs. Each SBITA asset is amortized on a straight-line basisover the shorter of the SBITA term or the useful life of the asset’s class. 89 CITY OF TAMPA, FLORIDANOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTSFOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2023 NOTE 1 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - (Continued) 5. Contributions - Contributions in the form of cash and capital assets to the governmental and business type activities of the City are recognized in the Statement of Activities as revenues in the period they are received. Contributions of capital assets and primarily completed infrastructure from developers are recognized at theacquisition value at the date of donation. All contributions are reported on the Statement of Activities asprogram revenues, with operating contributions reported separately from capital contributions. 6. Interfund Activity - Interfund activities within and among the City's three fund categories (governmental, proprietary, and fiduciary) are classified as reciprocal interfund activity and nonreciprocal interfund activity. Reciprocal interfund resource flows between funds with an expectation of repayment are reported as interfund receivables and payables. Interfund services provided and used are sales and purchases of goods and services between funds for aprice approximating their external value, and are reported as revenues and expenditures (or expenses) inthe funds. Non-reciprocal interfund activities are flows of assets between funds without an equivalent flow of assets in return, or without a requirement for repayment, are reported as transfers in governmental funds and transfers in the contributions and transfers section of the proprietary funds. The effect of interfund activity has been eliminated from funds and government-wide financial statements.Exceptions to this general rule are payments in lieu of taxes (PILOT) and payments in lieu of franchise fees(PILOFF), and other charges between the City’s water, wastewater, solid waste, parking, and general funds, as well as cost reimbursement transactions between the enterprise funds and various other functions of the government. Elimination of these charges would distort the direct costs and programrevenues reported for the various functions concerned. 7. Restricted Assets - Assets are reported as restricted in the Statement of Net Position and the fund statementswhen constraints are placed on their use. The constraints are either: (1) externally imposed by creditors,grantors, contributors, or laws or regulations of other governments; or (2) imposed by law or throughconstitutional provisions or enabling legislation. 8. Deferred Outflows and Inflows of Resources - In addition to assets, the statement of net position reports aseparate section for deferred outflows of resources. This separate financial statement element represents aconsumption of net assets that applies to future period(s) and will not be recognized as an outflow of resources (expense/expenditure) until a future period. In addition to liabilities, the statement of net position reports a separate section for deferred inflows ofresources. This separate financial statement element represents an acquisition of net assets that applies tofuture period(s) and will not be recognized as an inflow of resources (revenue) until a future period. The City reports the following deferred items: Loss on Bond Refunding: A loss on refunding results from the difference in the carrying value of refunded debt and its reacquisition price. This amount is deferred and amortized over the shorter of the life of the refunded or refunding debtand reported in the Government-wide and Proprietary Fund Statements of Net Position. 90 B-51 CITY OF TAMPA, FLORIDANOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTSFOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2023 NOTE 1 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - (Continued) Pension and Other Post-Employment Benefits (OPEB) Related Items:These deferred items are recognized and measured in the financial statements prepared using the economic resources measurement focus and the full accrual basis of accounting. The deferral is for changes in the net pension liability (NPL) and total OPEB liability that are not included in pension andOPEB expenses and must be amortized in a systematic and rational manner; over a closed perioddepending on cause beginning with the current period. These causes may include changes of futureeconomic and demographic assumptions or other inputs, differences between expected and actual experience with regard to economic or demographic factors, and differences between projected and actual earnings on pension plan investments. Employer contributions subsequent to the measurement date of the net pension liability are required to bereported as deferred outflows of resources. Lease Receivable:The City’s lease receivable is measured at the present value of lease payments expected to be received during the lease term. A deferred inflow of resources is recorded for the leases. The deferred inflow of resources is recorded at the initiation of the leases in an amount equal to the initial recording of the leasereceivable. The deferred inflow of resources is amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of thelease. 9. Compensated Absences - Vacation pay is accrued when earned in the government-wide financial statements and proprietary fund financial statements, and when they have matured in the governmental fund financial statements. The portion of sick leave that is payable at retirement is accrued when vested, or for thoseemployees for whom it is expected to vest, in the government-wide and proprietary fund financial statementsand when matured in the governmental fund financial statements. City employees generally earn vacationleave and sick leave at the rate of 1.9 hours per week. Vacation leave is fully vested when earned. Sick leave is vested after the employee has 10 years of service with the City. Accumulated vacation leave cannot exceed thirty days (30) at the end of any calendar year and any leavein excess of this amount is transferred to sick leave on which there is no limitation as to accumulatedamounts. For general retirement fund employees, fifty percent (50%) of vested unused sick leave plus any accumulated vacation leave is paid at retirement or death, except for employees hired on or after October 1, 2011, twenty five percent (25%) vested unused sick leave plus any accumulated vacation leave is paid. Fire and police employees electing early retirement who are not 46 years old, and have not completed 20years of service, have the option of receiving a lump-sum refund of their pension contribution and foregoing any compensation for unused sick leave, or upon reaching the age of 46 receiving 50% of unused sick leave and a retirement benefit. Other employees electing early retirement have the option ofreceiving 30% of unused sick leave at retirement and pension benefits when reaching the age of 55, orreceiving a lump-sum refund of their pension contribution and surrendering any unused sick leave. Uponother terminations, only accumulated vacation leave is paid. 91 CITY OF TAMPA, FLORIDANOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTSFOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2023 NOTE 1 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - (Continued) 10. Long-Term Obligations - In the government-wide financial statements, and proprietary fund types in the fund financial statements, long-term debt and other long-term obligations are reported as liabilities in the applicable governmental activities, business-type activities, or proprietary fund type Statement of Net Position. Bondpremiums and discounts are capitalized and amortized over the life of the bonds. Bonds payable is reportednet of the applicable bond premium or discount. In the fund financial statements, governmental fund types recognize bond premiums and discounts, as well as bond issuance costs during the current period. The face amount of debt issued is reported as otherfinancing sources. Premiums received on debt issuances are reported as other financing sources, whilediscounts on debt issuances are reported as other financing uses. Issuance costs, whether or not withheldfrom the actual debt proceeds received, and principal payments are reported as debt service expenditures. In the government-wide and proprietary funds financial statements, bond premiums and discounts arecapitalized and amortized using the straight-line method, over the shorter of the life of the new debt or theold debt of the related issues, which approximates the effective interest method. 11. Encumbrances - Encumbrance accounting is utilized during the year to facilitate effective budgetary control. Encumbrances are treated as budgeted expenditures in the year of incurrence of the commitment to purchase. 12. Fund Balances - Fund balances are divided into five (5) classifications based primarily on the extent to which the City is bound to observe constraints imposed upon the use of the resources in the governmental funds. The classifications are as follows: a) Non Spendable: The non spendable fund balance category includes amounts that cannot be spentbecause they are not in spendable form, or legally or contractually required to be maintained intact. The"not in spendable form" criteria includes items that are not expected to be converted to cash. It also includes the long-term amount of interfund loans. b) Restricted: The restricted fund balance is reported as restricted when constraints placed on the use of resources are either externally imposed by creditors (such as through debt covenants), grantors, contributors, or laws or regulations of other governments, or is imposed by law through constitutionalprovisions or enabling legislation (City ordinances). Enabling legislation authorizes the City to assess, levy,charge, or otherwise mandates payment of resources (from external resource providers) and includes alegally enforceable requirement that those resources be used only for the specific purposes stipulated in the legislation. Legal enforceability means the City can be compelled by an external party such as citizens, public interest groups, or the judiciary to use resources created by enabling legislation only for thepurposes specified by the legislation. c) Committed: The committed fund balance classification includes amounts that can be used only for thespecific purposes imposed by formal action (ordinance) of City Council. Those committed amounts cannot be used for any other purpose unless City Council removes or changes the specified use by taking the same type of action (ordinance) it employed to previously commit those amounts. In contrast to fundbalance that is restricted by enabling legislation, committed fund balance classification may be redeployedfor other purposes with appropriate due process. Constraints imposed on the use of committed amountsare imposed by City Council, separate from these constraints are not considered to be legally enforceable. Committed fund balance also incorporates contractual obligations to the extent that existing resources in the fund have been specifically committed for use in satisfying those contractual requirements. 92 B-52 CITY OF TAMPA, FLORIDANOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTSFOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2023 NOTE 1 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - (Continued) d) Assigned: The assigned fund balance classification is intended to be used by the City for specific purposes, but do not meet the criteria to be classified as restricted or committed. In governmental funds, assigned fund balance represents the remaining amount that is not restricted or committed. Assigned fundbalance amounts represent intended uses established by City Council and the designated authority of theChief Financial Officer (CFO). e) Unassigned: The unassigned fund balance is the residual classification for the general fund and includes all spendable amounts not contained in the other fund balance classifications. In the other governmental funds, the unassigned classification is used only to report a deficit balance resulting fromoverspending for specific purposes for which amounts had been restricted, committed, or assigned. The City applies restricted resources first when expenditures are incurred for purposes for which either restricted or unrestricted (committed, assigned, and unassigned) amounts are available. Similarly, within unrestricted fund balance, committed amounts are reduced first, followed by assigned, and then byunassigned amounts when expenditures are incurred for purposes for which amounts in any of theunrestricted fund balance classifications could be used. 13. Government-wide and Proprietary Funds Net Position - The net position for the government-wide financial statements and the proprietary funds are divided into three (3) classifications based primarily on the extent to which the City is bound to observe constraints imposed upon the use of the resources in the various funds, or to the extent of its liquidity. The classifications are as follows: Net Investment in Capital Assets, Restricted andUnrestricted: a) Net Investment in Capital Assets: The net investment in capital assets component of net position consists of capital assets, net of accumulated depreciation, reduced by the outstanding balance of bonds, notes or other borrowings that are attributable to the acquisition, construction or improvements of those assets and any deferred losses on bond refunding. Significant portions of unexpended capital debt are notincluded in this category of net position. b) Restricted: The restricted net position is reported as restricted when constraints placed on the use ofresources are either externally imposed by creditors (such as through debt covenants), grantors,contributors, or laws or regulations of other governments, or is imposed by law through constitutionalprovisions or enabling legislation (City Ordinances). Enabling legislation authorizes the City to assess, levy, charge, or otherwise mandates payment of resources (from external resources providers) and includes a legally enforceable requirement that those resources be used only for the specific purposes stipulated inthe legislation. Legal enforceability means the City can be compelled by an external party such as citizens,public interest groups, or the judiciary to use resources created by enabling legislation only for thepurposes specified by the legislation. The following are the various types of restricted net position: Debt Service: The net position restricted for debt service includes funds that will be used to make required debt service payments on the various bond issues and State Revolving Loans (SRLs), less any related liabilities. Capital Improvements: The net position restricted for capital improvements includes funds that willbe expended on capital improvement projects, less any related liabilities. Grants: The net position restricted for grants includes advance payments of funds restricted for use bythe granting agencies, less any related liabilities. 93 CITY OF TAMPA, FLORIDANOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTSFOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2023 NOTE 1 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - (Continued) c) Unrestricted: Unrestricted net position is the residual balance that can be used for any lawful purpose of the funds. In fiscal year 2023, the following categories are designated within unrestricted net position according to the City Financial Policies approved in the 2023 Adopted Budget: Operating Reserve: The Water, Wastewater, and Solid Waste departments will each maintain aminimum operating reserve equal to an average 90 days of actual operating expenses of the priorfiscal year. Optimally, the reserves should be sufficient to obtain and maintain the highest credit rating. These operating reserves may be released at the direction of the City’s Chief Financial Officer for authorized purposes within each respective department. Infrastructure Reserve:The Water, Wastewater, and Solid Waste departments will each attempt tomaintain an infrastructure reserve equal to 1% of total infrastructure assets as identified in the City’slatest Annual Comprehensive Financial Report. Each department director may request the release ofall or a portion of the infrastructure reserves to fund capital improvement programs if there are insufficient current year revenues and/or budgeted reserves. The infrastructure reserves may be released at the direction of the City’s Chief Financial Officer for authorized purposes within eachrespective department. The Solid Waste Infrastructure Reserve is being suspended during the periodFY2023 - FY2027 while the City invests in approximately $150 million in upgrades to theWaste-to-Energy Facility and approximately $150 million in upgrades to other facilities. McKay Bay Waste-to-Energy (WTE) Facility Reserve: The Solid Waste Department shall maintain a minimum $5 million reserve for the repair and renovation of the WTE Facility. This facility reserve may be releasedat the direction of the City’s Chief Financial Officer for authorized purposes within the department. Thisfacility reserve is being suspended during the period FY2023 - FY2027 while the City investsapproximately $150 million in upgrades and retrofits to the WTE facility. The Parking System does not have a reserve requirement since operations may be subsidized by the General Fund. The Parking System shall attempt to maintain a 60 day operating reserve when net revenues become sufficient tofully support operations, maintenance, capital, and related debt service expenses. The Golf CourseSystem does not have a reserve requirement since operations may be subsidized by the GeneralFund. The Golf Course System shall attempt to maintain a 60 day operating reserve when net revenues become sufficient to fully support operations, maintenance, capital, and related debt service expenses 14. Statement of Cash Flows - The Statement of Cash Flows contains all highly liquid investments (includingrestricted assets) with original maturities of three (3) months or less when purchased and are considered to becash. Under the provisions of GASB Statement No. 9, Reporting Cash Flows of Proprietary andNonexpendable Trust Funds and Governmental Entities That Use Proprietary Fund Accounting, the Fiduciary Funds are not required to present a Statement of Cash Flows. 15. Use of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management tomake estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, deferredoutflows/deferred inflows and disclosure of contingent assets, liabilities, and deferred outflows/deferred inflowsas of the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenditures during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. 16. Minimum Fund Balance Policy - The general fund's balance reserve target is 20% of the current year budgeted appropriations. For the purpose of determining if the target has been met, the unassigned fund balance of the general fund and the utilities services tax fund (combined in the general fund when reported inthe financial statements) is compared with the annual appropriations budget. 94 B-53 CITY OF TAMPA, FLORIDA NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTSFOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2023 NOTE 1 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - (Continued) 17. Program and Operating Revenues - Amounts reported as program revenues include: 1) charges for services;2) operating grants and contributions; and 3) capital grants and contributions. Internally dedicated resources arereported as general revenues rather than as program revenues. Likewise, general revenues include all taxes. Proprietary funds distinguish operating revenues and expenses from non-operating items. Operating revenues and expenses generally result from providing services and producing and delivering goods in connection with a proprietary fund’s principal ongoing operations. The principal operating revenues of the water and wastewaterutility funds, the solid waste system fund, the parking facilities fund, the golf courses fund, and all of the City’sinternal service funds are charges to customers for sales and services. The water and wastewater utility funds also recognize as operating revenue the portion of tap fees intended to recover the cost of connecting new customers to the system. Operating expenses for proprietary funds and internal service funds include the costof sales and services, administrative expenses (including administrative overhead), and depreciation on capitalassets. All revenues and expenses not meeting this definition are reported as non-operating revenues andexpenses. When both restricted and unrestricted resources are available for use, it is the City’s policy to use restricted resources first, then unrestricted resources as they are needed. 18.

Any personowning land on which a tax certificate has been sold may redeem the land by paying the Tax Collector the faceamount of the tax certificate plus interest and other costs. The owner of a tax certificate may at any time after taxeshave been delinquent for two (2) years, file an application for tax deed sale. The County, as a certificate owner, may exercise similar procedures two (2) years after taxes have been delinquent. Tax deeds are issued to the highest bidder for the property which is sold at public auction. Property owners who disagree with the valuation of their property or have been denied an exemption, may contactthe Property Appraiser's Office, where they can voice their objection and are given an explanation on how the value of their property was derived. If they are still dissatisfied after this initial review and possible adjustment, they may petition the Value Adjustment Board (VAB). The VAB was created by Florida Statute 194.015 to provide citizens aforum to address complaints when they believe the Property Appraiser has over assessed their property orimproperly denied an exemption or classification or tax deferral. Beginning July 1, 2011, property owners must makea partial payment of taxes on properties that have a petition pending on or after the delinquency date. Failure to do so will result in the denial of the petition under Florida Statute 194.014. The Tax Collector remits current taxes collected through four distributions to the City in the first two (2) months ofthe tax year and at least are distributed each month thereafter. The City recognizes property tax revenue in theperiod for which they are levied. C. Tax Limitations Florida Statutes set the maximum millage rate at 10 mills of assessed valuation for operating purposes. For thefiscal year-ended September 30, 2023, the approved operating millage was 6.2076 mills. 101 CITY OF TAMPA, FLORIDA NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTSFOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2023 NOTE 6 - DEPOSITS AND INVESTMENTS A.

The hierarchy is based on the valuation inputs used to measure the fair value ofthe asset. Inputs are categorized as Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices in activemarkets for identical assets; Level 2 inputs are significant other observable inputs; Level 3 inputs are significantunobservable inputs. The following table summarizes the assets and liabilities of the City for which fair values are determined on arecurring basis as of September 30, 2023: Markets for Fair Identical AssetsDescriptionValue(Level 2) September 30, 2023 US Treasury Notes $ 674,394,868 $ 674,394,868 Corporate Bonds 188,593,012 188,593,012 Taxable Municipal Bonds 115,763,028 115,763,028 Total Assets in the Fair Value Hierarchy 978,750,908 $ 978,750,908 Investments at Fair Value $ 978,750,908 103 CITY OF TAMPA, FLORIDA NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTSFOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2023 NOTE 6 - DEPOSITS AND INVESTMENTS - (Continued) 2. Interest Rate Risk Interest rate risk is the risk that as market rates change, the fair value of an investment will vary. Generally, thelonger the maturity of an investment, the greater the sensitivity of its fair value to changes in market interest rates. The City's policy limits the maturity of an investment to a maximum of 5 years. As of September 30, 2023, the City of Tampa invested in U.S. securities whose weighted average maturity in years was 1.80 years. 3. Credit Risk Credit risk is the risk that a security or a portfolio will lose some or all of its value due to a real or perceivedchange in the ability of the issuer to repay its debt. This risk is generally measured by the assignment of a ratingby a nationally recognized statistical rating agency. In compliance with the City's Investment Policy, the Cityminimizes credit risk losses due to default of a security issuer or backer, by limiting investments to U.S. Treasuries, government agencies, municipal and corporate bonds and by using Qualified Public Depository (QPD) institutions with which the City does business. 4. Concentration of Credit Risk This is the risk that in the event of the failure of the counterparty, the City will not be able to recover the value ofits investments that are in the possession of an outside party.This risk of loss may be attributed to themagnitude of a government's investment in a single issuer. The City’s Investment Policy limits the amount thatis permitted in a single issuer to 25% of the total portfolio. However, at the discretion of the Chief Financial Officer, the portfolio may need to be altered from time to time based on economic conditions and/or the best value of the short-term operational needs of the City. 5. Custodial Credit Risk On September 30, 2023, the City's deposits in financial institutions totaled $481,300,200. Monies on deposit with financial institutions in the form of demand deposit accounts, time deposit accounts, and certificates of deposits are defined as public deposits. The entire City's public deposits are held in qualified public depositoriespursuant to State of Florida Statutes, Chapter 280, "Florida Security for Public Deposits Act," and covered byfederal depository insurance. For amounts in excess of such federal depository insurance, the Act provides thatall qualified public depositories are required to pledge eligible collateral having a fair value equal to or greater than the average daily or monthly balance of all public deposits, times the depository's collateral pledging level. The pledging level may range from 50% to 125% depending upon the depository's financial condition andestablishment period. The Public Deposit Security Trust Fund has a procedure to allocate and recover losses inthe event of a default or insolvency. When public deposits are made in accordance with Chapter 280, no publicdepositor is liable for any loss thereof. Any losses to public depositors are covered by applicable deposit insurance, sales of securities pledged as collateral and, if necessary, assessments against other qualified public depositories of the same type as the depository in default. The City's investment securities owned are primarilyheld in U.S. Treasury Notes which are fully backed by the United States government, agencies, municipal andcorporate bonds, and held by the custodian in the City's name. B. Pension Plan Investments Pension Plan Assets - The City reports two (2) fiduciary pension trust funds in the accompanying financialstatements. Each of the plans has a separate governing board of trustees, a separate investment policy, and differing investment restrictions/risks. Consequently, each is disclosed separately below. Both plans are defined benefit 401 (a) plans. 104 B-58 CITY OF TAMPA, FLORIDA NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTSFOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2023 NOTE 6 - DEPOSITS AND INVESTMENTS - (Continued) 1. General Employees' Pension Trust Fund a. Fair Value Measurements The General Employees' Retirement Fund (the Fund) categorizes the fair value measurements within thehierarchy established by general accepted accounting principles outlined in GASB Statement No. 72. Thehierarchy is based on the valuation inputs used to measure the fair value of the asset and gives thehighest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The Fund's custodian bank uses a matrix based on asset class as the basis for the fair value hierarchy, which utilizesindustry standard asset categories to assign a fair value level to each investment. Description of Investments Measured at Fair Value A default leveling logic approach is applied to securities. Level 1: Securities traded in an active market, on an exchange that have quoted unadjusted prices such as exchange-traded equities, and exchange-traded derivatives. Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable. These inputs are derived from market datathrough correlation or by other means, e.g., "market corroborated." Primarily fixed income prices providedby a vendor or broker/dealer are classified as a Level 2. Level 3: Inputs to the valuation methodology that are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement. Instruments are often based on internally developed models in which there are few, if any, external observation. Securities often include limited partnerships and delisted or defaulted securities.fixed income, equity mutual, and commingled funds are valued by the individual managers of each fund. Real estate investments are valued by market assumptions provided by the individual managers of each fund. The managers determine the fair value of the underlying investments of the fund, then allocate their fair value to the General Employees' Pension Trust Fund based on the percentage of ownership it has inthe fund. Note: For investments in certain entities that calculate net asset value that do not have a readily determinable fair value, the City of Tampa is permitted to report fair value based on the Net Asset Value(NAV) per share (or its equivalent) as a practical expedient, where certain conditions are met. Suchmeasurements are included within the disclosure, but should not be classified as Level 1, Level 2, orLevel 3 within the hierarchy. Below is the criteria that must be met as of the City of Tampa's measurement date of which all criteria has been met: 1. The investment does not have a readily determinable fair value.2. The NAV per share is calculated (or adjusted to be) as of the reporting entity's measurementdate. 3. The NAV per share is calculated (or adjusted to be) in a manner consistent with the measurement principles associated with GASB Statement No. 72. 105 CITY OF TAMPA, FLORIDA NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTSFOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2023 NOTE 6 - DEPOSITS AND INVESTMENTS - (Continued) 1.

General Employees' Pension Trust Fund - (continued) Limited Partnerships include UBS Trumbull Property Fund, Fidelity Growth III, and Blackstone Property Partners. b. Interest Rate Risk Interest rate risk is the risk that changes in interest rates will adversely affect the fair value of aninvestment. Generally, the longer the maturity of an investment, the greater the sensitivity of its fair value to changes in the market interest rates. The Plan's policy does not place limits on investment maturities. c. Credit Risk Credit risk is the risk that a security or a portfolio will lose some or all of its value due to a real or perceived change in the ability of the issuer to repay its debt. This risk is generally measured by the assignment of a rating by a nationally recognized statistical rating agency. The Plan's investment policyrequires the investments in fixed income securities to be limited to the four (4) highest classifications bya major rating agency. d. Concentration of Credit Risk This is the risk of loss that may be attributed to the magnitude of a government's investment in a single issuer. The investment policy of the Plan contains limitations of the amount that can be invested in anyone issuer as well as maximum portfolio allocation percentages. There were no individual investmentsthat represent 5% or more of plan net position or total plan investments at September 30, 2023. e. Custodial Credit Risk This is the risk that in the event of the failure of the counterparty, the Plan will not be able to recover the value of its investments that are in the possession of an outside party. Consistent with the Plan'sinvestment policy, the investments are held by the Plan's custodial bank and registered in the Plan'sname. f. Foreign Currency Risk The Plan has nominal exposure to foreign currencies due to investments in non-U.S. marketsimplemented through our money managers' portfolios. Foreign currencies will fluctuate relative to theU.S. dollar, but it is believed that the diversification benefits outweigh potential risks. h. Currency Risk Currency risk is the risk that investment values may be affected by changes in exchange rates. The Investment Manager may hedge all, some, or none of the portfolio's currency exposure. The Investment Manager may also cross hedge currency positions, but may not be net short any currency,or long more than 100% of the portfolio. 108 B-60 CITY OF TAMPA, FLORIDA NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTSFOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2023 NOTE 6 - DEPOSITS AND INVESTMENTS - (Continued) 1.

On August 1, 2011, the City entered a 15-year agreement with Seminole Electric to sell the net electrical energyoutput generated from its McKay Bay facility. The contract will expire on July 31, 2026, unless extended by mutualagreement. There were no advance payments from Seminole Electric.

Other parties to theagreement are the cities of St. Petersburg, New Port Richey, Hillsborough, Pasco, and Pinellas counties.

The payment to theSports Authority above varies because the amount is contingent on certain parking revenues and ticket surcharge revenues. During 2023, $1,370,665 was paid under this agreement. In 1993, State regulations required the City to place a final cover on its Old Manhattan landfill site when it stoppedaccepting waste and to perform certain maintenance and monitoring functions at the site for thirty (30) years afterclosure. The City is required by the State of Florida Administrative Code Section 62-701.630(5) to maintain an interest-bearing escrow account to finance closure and post-closure care. The City had a balance on September 30, 2023 of $890,897 in Bank of America for the closure and post-closure care. The City is in compliance with theserequirements, as an escrow account was created and approved by City Council on March 31, 1994 via ResolutionNo. 94-0540, i.e., the Landfill Management Escrow Account for the Manhattan Landfill. The resulting liability isreassessed on an annual basis, and as of the fiscal year ended September 30, 2023, the City expects to report an approximate expense of $98,467 per year for the next three (3) years. Actual cost may be higher due to inflation, changes in technology, or changes in regulations, but as of September 30, 2023, the expected post-closure costsover the next three years is $295,400. In FY2016, the City has opened a separate interest bearing account from theoperating revenues of the water utility fund to cover the remaining costs. This balance is restricted for the exclusiveuse of the closure and post-closure care and is reflected on the statements of net position government-wide statements in the column for business-type activities, and in the water utility fund in the proprietary fund statement of net position as restricted cash and landfill postclosure liability. Since the post-closure costs for the fiscal yearended September 30, 2023, were funded from the operating revenues of the water utility fund, there were nodeposits or withdrawals to the account during the year. However, the liability amount in the account was reduced by$72,700 (from $368,099 as of September 30, 2022 to $295,400 as of September 30, 2023) to reflect updated estimated annual costs and liabilities.

Thefund provides both service and non-service-related disability and pre-retirement death benefits. Effective October 1,2004, the annual pension benefit was increased from 2.5% to 3.15% for each year of service times the employeesfinal average compensation (highest three of the last 10 years of service), but not less than $100 per month. The increased benefit is applicable only to plan members actively employed as firefighters or police officers on or after October 1, 2003. Deferred Retirement Option Program (DROP) Members with at least 20 years of credited service are eligible to participate in the Deferred Retirement OptionProgram (DROP) for up to five (5) years. Members entering DROP after 25 years of service are eligible to participate in the DROP for a combined total of 30 years of credited service. During the DROP period, the member accrues a benefit amount equal to what would have been the member's longevity retirement benefit had themember retired as of the date of entry into the DROP program. Annual DROP Option Election: Effective October 1, 2011, there is an additional option available for those participating in DROP. DROP participants may elect once per year in October to have interest accumulated annually, whether positive or negative, at either (1) the fund's adjusted net investment returns; or (2) a low riskvariable rate option, each as determined by the Board of Trustees on fund assets. Net returns are calculated fromthe date payment would have been made until departure from service. This accumulated amount, less the portion attributable to the employee's after tax pension contributions, may be either rolled over to a tax-qualified vehicle, paid in a lump sum, or some combination of the two based upon themember's request when the member leaves active service at the end of the DROP period.

The 13th check benefit was funded by employee contributions from the 13th check benefit's inception in October 1998 through September 30, 2001. Employee contributions to the 13th check benefit ceased September 30, 2001, and the 13th check benefit was then funded bya portion of the investment return in excess of the actuarially assumed rate of return of the fund. 147 CITY OF TAMPA, FLORIDANOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2023 NOTE 18 (A) - EMPLOYEE RETIREMENT AND PENSION PLANS - FIREFIGHTERS AND POLICE OFFICERS' PENSION FUND - (Continued) Members terminating employment who are not eligible to retire are entitled to a refund of contributions they made tothe fund without interest. Post-retirement benefit increases are based on the net change in the average cost ofliving index with a maximum determined by the actuary and a minimum not below the original benefit for the fund;these benefits are paid from a post-retirement adjustment account which had the fair value of assets of $271,931 as of October 1, 2022 (the measurement date).

The desired investment objective is a long-term rate of return on assetsof at least 8.5%, which is anticipated to be approximately 3.5% - 5.5% greater than the anticipated rate of inflationas measured by the Consumer Price Index (CPI) - All Urban Consumers. This target rate of return for the plan isbased upon the assumption that future real returns will approximate the historical long-term rates of return experienced for each asset class held by the Fund. Best estimates of real rates of return for each major asset class included in the Fund's target allocation as of September 30, 2023. Asset Class Real Rate of Return Real Estate Investment Trusts 9.0% Master Limited Partnerships 5.0%Equities 10.5%Fixed Income 3.5% Discount Rate The discount rate used to measure the total pension liability was 8.5%. The projection of cash flows used todetermine the discount rate assumed that plan member contributions will be made at the current contribution rate and that City contributions will be made at rates equal to the actuarially determined contribution rates less the member and State contributions. Based on those assumptions, the pension plan's fiduciary net position wasprojected to be available to make all projected future benefit payments of current plan members. Therefore, thelong-term expected rate of return on pension plan investments was applied to all periods of projected benefitpayments to determine the total pension liability.

For 2023 the inflation rate assumption of the investment advisor was 2.75%. These ranges are combined to produce the Long-Term Expected Rate of Return by weighting the expected future real rates of return by the target asset allocation percentage and by adding expected inflation. Best estimates of arithmetic real rate of return for each major asset class included in the Pension Plan's targetasset allocation as of September 30, 2023, are summarized in the following table: Long-Term Long-Term Arithmetic Arithmetic Average Average Nominal Real Asset Class Return Return Core Bonds 5.31%2.56%Multi-Sector 6.25%3.5% Liquid Absolute Return 6.00%3.25% U.S. Large Cap Equity 9.90%7.15%U.S. Small Cap Equity 11.33%8.58%International Developed Equity 10.78%8.03%Emerging Market Equity 12.04%9.29%Private Equity 13.26%10.51%Core Real Estate 9.24%6.49%Opportunistic Real Estate 12.24%9.49% Discount Rate (Pension Plan Reporting) The discount rate used to measure the total pension liability was 7.25% percent. The projection of cash flows usedto determine the discount rate assumed that plan member contributions will be made at the current contribution rateand that the City contributions will be made at rates equal to the difference between actuarially determinedcontribution rates and the member rates. Based on those assumptions, the Pension Plan's Fiduciary Net Position was projected to be available to make all projected future benefit payments of current plan members. Therefore, the Long-Term Expected Rate of Return on pension plan investments was applied to all periods of projected benefitpayments to determine the Total Pension Liability. 158 B-85 CITY OF TAMPA, FLORIDANOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2023 NOTE 18 (B) - EMPLOYEE RETIREMENT AND PENSION PLANS - GENERAL EMPLOYEES' PENSION TRUST FUND - (Continued) Changes in the Net Pension Liability (Pension Plan Reporting) The following table shows the changes in the Net Pension Liability.

The plans are offered to permanent employees. The plans permit employees to defer a portion of their salary until future years. The deferred compensation is not available to employees until termination,retirement, death, or unforeseen non-reimbursed emergencies. It is the opinion of the City's legal counsel that theCity has no liability for losses under the plans, but does have the duty of due care that would be required of anordinary prudent investor in overall program oversight. Since the City has no control over these assets, other than periodically testing the market to retain or replace the 457 third-party administrator, these assets are not reflected in the City's financial statements. NOTE 19 - POLLUTION REMEDIATION OBLIGATIONS In accordance with GASB Statement No. 49, Accounting and Financial Reporting for Pollution Remediation, the following provides a general description of the nature of pollution remediation activities. The Solid Waste and Wastewater Departments are involved with cleanups of underground storage tanks and othermaterials at various locations. The City of Tampa Risk Management Office has several structured insurance programs related to possible pollution exposure: A formal self insurance program pursuant to the authority granted by Florida Statute; the City's selfinsurance program operates within the limits of sovereign immunity. A Pollution Legal Liability Insurance policywhich provides coverage for pollution exposure and related clean-up costs; and a Storage Tank Third Party LiabilityInsurance policy providing coverage for third-party bodily injury and property damage due to a storage tank release. In addition, this policy provides coverage for related cleanup and defense costs. By implementing several insurance programs, the City is transferring these potential exposures to a limit of liability in a formal insurance program. The City has not recognized a liability for a pollution remediation obligation because the City is either not compelledto take action in the items described above, the work was completed before year-end, or a liability is not reasonably estimable. NOTE 20 - RELATED PARTIES The City of Tampa Mayor and Council members sit on a variety of Boards within the City, including the Aviation Authority, the Port Authority, the Regional Transit Authority, the Sports Authority, the Housing Authority, the Metropolitan Planning Organization, the Aquarium, the Zoo, the Museum, and more. To some extent, each of theseagencies and affiliations are engaged with the City either paying for services or receiving payments for support. TheMayor and Council members do not make up a majority on these Boards and Committees and the City is notfinancially responsible for them, however, they are in a position to influence the Boards and Committees upon which they sit. The City does not offer favorable terms for the provision of services to any of these entities and considers all transactions to be made at arm’s length. 166 B-89 CITY OF TAMPA, FLORIDANOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTSFOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2023 NOTE 21 - TAX ABATEMENTS The City provides tax abatements through two (2) programs, the Ad Valorem Property Tax Exemption Program and the Qualified Target Industry (QTI) Program. A tax abatement is defined as a reduction in tax revenues resultingfrom an agreement where the government forgoes tax revenues and the qualified program participant promises totake a specific action after the agreement is executed that contributes to economic development or otherwisebenefits the City or its residents. Ad Valorem Property Tax Exemption Program. In accordance with City Ordinance 2011-57, the Ad Valorem Property Tax Exemption Program exempts 50% of certain new Ad Valorem property taxes of qualified businessesthat make capital investments and tangible personal property as well as bring new higher paying jobs to the City. Each tax exemption agreement must be approved by the City Council for it to take effect. The City makes taxabatement payments after determining that program requirements are met. If a participant does not comply with all requirements, partial benefits are not permitted. Because property taxes are abated after compliance requirements have been met, there is no provision for recovering previously abated real property taxes. However, abated tangiblepersonal property taxes may be recovered after the fact. No property tax abatements took place during fiscal year2023. Qualified Target Industry Program. The State of Florida's QTI Program is authorized by Section 288.106, Florida Statutes. Under the QTI Program, an applicant must create a certain number of jobs and have average wages of at least 115% of the City's (or State's) average wage rates during the years covered by its commitment. The City, andother local governments such as Hillsborough County, provide a total local government match of 20% of the total taxrefunds organized by the Florida Department of Economic Opportunity in exchange for the program participantrelocating to or expanding headquarters operations within the City. There is an application process under which the City must approve the applicant prior to agreeing to make the match payment to the State of Florida. If approved, the City issues a Resolution documenting its approval. The City sends the match payment to the State of Floridaonly if the State determines that the participant met program requirements. If approved, the amount is given to theparticipant, but only up to the amount of state and/or local government taxes actually paid by the participant. Because QTI payments are paid after compliance requirements have been met, there is no provision for recovering previously made payments. If the participant complied with program requirements only partially, prorated benefits are permitted under certain conditions. The following chart shows each of the City's QTI match payments for 2023.

For fiscal year 2015 ACFR, it was netted against Operating Revenues.(2) Other Revenues include cash investment earnings, cash capital contributions, miscellaneous income, grant funds available for any lawful purpose and not otherwise restricted. They excludewastewater and water capacity fees, capital grant revenues, gain on sale of capital assets, and unrealized gain on investments.(3) Pursuant to the Bond Resolution, Operating Expenses do not include depreciation and amortization expense, payments in lieu of taxes (PILOT), and payments in lieu of franchise fees (PILOFF),losses on sale of assets, or unrealized losses on investments. Beginning in fiscal year 2018, accruals for pension and retirement benefits are excluded from operating expenses, pursuant to theBond Resolution. If they were excluded from operating expenses in fiscals 2015, 2016, and 2017, the net impact on operating expenses would be $581,524, $(2,557,521), and $(3,238,443),respectively.(4) Pursuant to the Bond Resolution, all capacity fees are pledged to the repayment of the bonds. Under Florida law, capacity fees may only be used to pay debt service on bonds that financed orrefinanced expansion-related capital improvements under the terms of the Bond Resolution. The City ensures that the Wastewater and Water capacity fees utilized are only to pay debt servicefor expansion projects only.(5) Senior lien annual debt service refers to the bonds only. For the purpose of debt service calculation, Annual Debt Service is shown on a "cash basis" with payments due on October 1 recordedin the prior fiscal year (as defined in the Bond Resolution), since these payments are sent to the fiscal agent in advance of the due date.(6) The rate covenant of the Bond Resolution requires that in each fiscal year: A) Net Revenues and capacity fees must equal at least 120% of the annual debt service of the senior lien bonds; andB) Net Revenues without capacity fees must equal at least 100% of the Annual Debt Service of the senior lien bonds and any other required payments. No other required payments under theBond Resolution were identified for the historical period beginning October 1, 2009.(7) Amounts derived based on Net Revenues with capacity fees divided by senior lien Annual Debt Service.(8) Amounts derived based on Net Revenues without capacity fees divided by senior lien Annual Debt Service.(9) Subordinate lien annual debt service includes FDEP loans, which require a 1.15 coverage ratio after payment of the senior lien bonds.Source: Operating Revenues, Other Revenues, and Operating Expenses were extracted from the City's Annual Comprehensive Financial Reports.325B-172 CITY OF TAMPA, FLORIDAWATER AND SEWER SYSTEMS REVENUE BONDSSUMMARY OF PROJECTED FUNDING SOURCES FOR CAPITALPROJECTS FOR THE NEXT FIVE FISCAL YEARSAdopted Capital Improvement Projects Funding Sources For Fiscal Years Ended September 30,Description 2024 2025 2026 2027 2028 TotalUse of Water and Wastewater Rate Revenues $ 40,460,252 $ 62,275,957 $ 96,907,062 $ 85,099,965 $ 76,951,852 $ 361,695,088 Use of (Deposit to) Operating Fund Reserves - 100,864,640 31,654,091 14,071,946 1,539,898 148,130,575 Use of Capital Construction Fund Reserves 32,200,000 30,239,123 3,202,294 - - 65,641,417 Use of Bond Proceeds 95,381,000 89,332,704 170,086,500 160,153,100 200,200,889 715,154,193 Total Capital Expenditures $ 168,041,252 $ 282,712,424 $ 301,849,947 $ 259,325,011 $ 278,692,639 $ 1,290,621,273 The City has planned improvements and expansions to the system to meet current service area needs.

This section contains: Independent Auditor’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting and on Compliance and Other Matters Based on an Audit of Financial Statements Performed in Accordance with Government Auditing Standards Independent Auditor’s Report on Compliance for each Major Federal Program and Major State Project and on Internal Control over Compliance and Report on Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards and State Financial Assistance required by the Uniform Guidance and Chapter 10.550, Rules of the Auditor General Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards and State Financial Assistance Notes to Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards and State Financial Assistance Schedule of Findings and Questioned Costs Summary Schedule of Prior Audit Findings 347 (This page intentionally left blank.) 348 B-184 INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING AND ON COMPLIANCE AND OTHER MATTERS BASED ON AN AUDIT OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PERFORMED IN ACCORDANCE WITH GOVERNMENT AUDITING STANDARDS The Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council City of Tampa, Florida We have audited, in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards issued by the Comptroller General of the United States, the financial statements of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, the discretely presented component unit, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City of Tampa, Florida (the “City”) as of and for the year ended September 30, 2023, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the City’s basic financial statements, and have issued our report thereon dated March 13, 2024. Our report includes a reference to other auditors who audited the financial statements of the City’s Firefighters and Police Officers’ Pension Trust Fund. This report includes our consideration of the results of the other auditor’s testing of internal control over financial reporting and compliance and other matters that are reported on separately by those other auditors. However, this report, insofar as it relates to the results of the other auditors, is based solely on the reports of the other auditors. Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements, we considered the City’s internal control over financial reporting (internal control) as a basis for designing 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 City’s internal control. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the City’s internal control. A deficiency in internal control exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent or detect and correct misstatements on a timely basis. A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the entity’s financial statements will not be prevented, 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 severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged with governance. Our consideration of internal control over financial reporting was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph of this section and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control that might be material weaknesses or significant deficiencies. Given these limitations, during our audit we did not identify any deficiencies in internal control that we consider to be material weaknesses. However, material weaknesses may exist that have not been identified. 349 The Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council City of Tampa, Florida Report on Compliance and Other Matters As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the City’s basic financial statements are free of material misstatement, we performed tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, grant agreements and contracts, noncompliance with which could have a direct and material effect on the financial statements. However, providing an opinion on compliance with those provisions 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 matters that are required to be reported under Government Auditing Standards. We noted certain matters that we reported to management of the City in a separate letter dated March 13, 2024. Purpose of this Report The purpose of this report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effectiveness of the City’s internal control or on compliance. This report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the City’s internal control and compliance. Accordingly, this communication is not suitable for any other purpose. Certified Public Accountants Tampa, Florida March 13, 2024 350 B-185 INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT ON COMPLIANCE FOR EACH MAJOR FEDERAL PROGRAM AND MAJOR STATE PROJECT AND ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER COMPLIANCE AND REPORT ON SCHEDULE OF EXPENDITURES OF FEDERAL AWARDS AND STATE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE REQUIRED BY THE UNIFORM GUIDANCE AND CHAPTER 10.550, RULES OF THE AUDITOR GENERAL The Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council City of Tampa, Florida Report on Compliance for Each Major Federal Program and State Project Opinion on Each Major Federal Program and State Project We have audited the compliance of the City of Tampa, Florida (the “City”) with the types of compliance requirements described in the U.S. Office of Management and Budget (“OMB”) Compliance Supplement and Department of Financial Services State Compliance Supplement that could have a direct and material effect on each of the City’s major federal programs and major state projects for the year ended September 30, 2023. The City’s major federal programs and major state projects are identified in the summary of auditor’s results section of the accompanying Schedule of Findings and Questioned Costs. In our opinion, the City complied, in all material respects, with the types of compliance requirements referred to above that could have a direct and material effect on each of its major federal programs and major state projects for the year ended September 30, 2023. Basis for Opinion for Each Major Federal Program and State Project We conducted our audit of compliance in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America; the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States; and the audit requirements of Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations Part 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (Uniform Guidance); and Chapter 10.550, Rules of the Auditor General. Our responsibilities under those standards and the Uniform Guidance are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of Compliance section of our report. We are required to be independent of the City and to meet our other ethical responsibilities, in accordance with relevant ethical requirements relating to our audit. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion on compliance for each major federal program. Our audit does not provide a legal determination of the City’s compliance with the compliance requirements referred to above. Responsibility of Management for Compliance Management is responsible for compliance with the requirements referred to above and for the design, implementation, and maintenance of effective internal control over compliance with the requirements of laws, statutes, regulations, rules, and provisions of contracts or grant agreements applicable to the City’s federal programs and state projects. 351 The Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council City of Tampa, Florida Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of Compliance Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether material noncompliance with the compliance requirements referred to above occurred, whether due to fraud or error, and express an opinion on the City’s compliance based on our audit. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and therefore is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, Government Auditing Standards, and the Uniform Guidance; and Chapter 10.550, Rules of the Auditor General will always detect material noncompliance when it exists. The risk of not detecting material noncompliance resulting from fraud is higher than for that resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Noncompliance with the compliance requirements referred to above is con- sidered material if there is a substantial likelihood that, individually or in the aggregate, it would influence the judgment made by a reasonable user of the report on compliance about the City’s compliance with the requirements of each major federal program and state project as a whole. In performing an audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, Government Auditing Standards, the Uniform Guidance, and Chapter 10.550, Rules of the Auditor General, we: • Exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. • Identify and assess the risks of material noncompliance, whether due to fraud or error, and design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks. Such procedures include ex- amining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the City’s compliance with the compliance requirements referred to above and performing such other procedures as we considered nece- ssary in the circumstances. • Obtain an understanding of the City’s internal control over compliance relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances and to test and report on internal control over compliance in accordance with the Uniform Guidance and Chapter 10.550, Rules of the Auditor General, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the City’s internal control over compliance. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed. We are required to communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and any significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in internal control over compliance that we identified during the audit. Report on Internal Control over Compliance A deficiency in internal control over compliance exists when the design or operation of a control over compliance does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent, or detect and correct, noncompliance with a type of compliance requirement of a federal program or state project on a timely basis. A material weakness in internal control over compliance is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over compliance, such that there is a reasonable possibility that material noncompliance with a type of compliance requirement of a federal program or state project will not be prevented, or detected and corrected on a timely basis. A significant deficiency in internal control over compliance is a deficiency, or a combination of deficien- cies, in internal control over compliance with a type of compliance requirement of a federal program or state project that is less severe than a material weakness in internal control over compliance, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged with governance. 352 B-186 The Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council City of Tampa, Florida Report on Internal Control over Compliance (Continued) Our consideration of internal control over compliance was for the limited purpose described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of Compliance section above and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control over compliance that might be material weaknesses or significant defi- ciencies in internal control over compliance. Given these limitations, during our audit we did not identify any deficiencies in internal control over compliance that we consider to be material weaknesses as defined above. However, material weaknesses may exist that have not been identified. Our audit was not designed for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of internal control over compliance. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed. The purpose of this report on internal control over compliance is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over compliance and the results of that testing based on the requirements of the Uniform Guidance. Accordingly, this report is not suitable for any other purpose. Report on Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards and State Financial Assistance We have audited the basic financial statements of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, the discretely presented component unit, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City as of and for the year ended September 30, 2023, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the City’s basic financial statements. We issued our report thereon dated March 13, 2024, which contained unmodified opinions on those financial statements. Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that collectively comprise the City’s basic financial statements. The accompanying Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards and State Financial Assistance is presented for the purposes of additional analysis, as required by the Uniform Guidance, Chapter 69I-5, Schedule of Expenditures of State Financial Assistance, Rules of the Department of Financial Services, and Chapter 10.550, Rules of the Auditor General, and is not a required part of the financial statements. Such information is the responsibility of management and was derived from, and relates directly to, the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the financial statements. The information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and certain additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling such information directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the financial statements or to the financial statements themselves, and other additional procedures in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. In our opinion, the information is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the financial statements taken as a whole.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of Presentation The information in this schedule is presented in accordance with the requirements of Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations Part 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirement for Federal Awards Subpart F, Chapter 69I-5, Schedule of Expenditures of State Financial Assistance, Rules of the Florida Department of Financial Services; and Chapter 10.550, Rules of the FloridaAuditor General. Therefore, some amounts presented in this schedule may differ from amounts shown in or used to prepare the basic financial statements of the City of Tampa, Florida. Basis of Accounting The expenditures in the accompanying Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards and State Financial Assistance are presented using the modified accrual basis of accounting, except for the proprietary funds presented on the accrual basis. The modified accrual basis recognizes expenditures in the period the associated liability is incurred, when matured and due, while expenses are recognized when incurred under the accrual basis. Such expenditures are reported following the cost principles contained in the Uniform Guidance, wherein certain types of expenditures are not allowable or are limited as to reimbursement. NOTE 3 – INDIRECT COST The City currently does not have a negotiated indirect cost rate for federal awards received. The City has also elected not to charge the de minimis rate of 10% allowed by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) to all federal awards. The City uses a cost allocation method for the overhead to the federal awards that have been pre-approved based on documented justification provided to the federal agency. 363 CITY OF TAMPA, FLORIDA NOTES TO SCHEDULE OF EXPENDITURES OF FEDERAL AWARDS AND STATE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE (Continued) FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2023 NOTE 4 – HURRICANES The City has incurred hurricane-related expenditures for the fiscal years 2023, 2022, and 2021.

Federal awards expended in years subsequent to the fiscal year in which the PW isapproved are to be recorded on the non-Federal entity's SEFA in those subsequent years. For example, (a). If FEMA approves the PW in the non-Federal entity's fiscal year 2021 and eligible expenditures are incurred in the non-Federal entity's fiscal year 2022, the non-Federal entity recordsthe eligible expenditures in its fiscal year 2022 SEFA.

The COVID-19 pandemic caused a negative economic impact on residents with rental debt, fear of evictions, and loss of basic housing security. There were two separate programs designed to assist eligible households. Emergency Rental Assistance (ERA 1) serves to assist residents related to housing needs directly orindirectly related to the impact of COVID-19. Emergency Rental Assistance (ERA 2) was revised to assist eligible residents for ERA 1 and added to assist other eligible residents in promoting housing stability for eligible households to improve economic sustainability. The City of Tampa was successfully awarded nearly $22 million from the Department of Treasury in Fiscal Year (FY) 2021 to meet the needs of Tampa residents who were unable to pay rent/mortgage or/and utilities. Additionally, with the effort to meet the needs of citizens, the City of Tampa partnered with HillsboroughCounty to seek out eligible residents to improve their economic needs and sustainability. The City's Annual Comprehensive Financial Report shows that the City distributed the remaining of the awarded grant in emergency rental assistance-related expenditures incurred as of September 30, 2023.

ARP provides emergency funding for state, local, territorial, and tribal governments to address the devastating impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and instantly became a major opportunity to improve public health and economic commitment. The plan assists households, smallbusinesses, and nonprofits to advance a pathway for services incorporating equity, supporting communities, and increasing housing stability while promoting public trust. The funds also aid in impacting tourism, travel, and hospitality. The purpose of the ARP was to fight the COVID-19 pandemic and support families and businesses by enhancing their public health and economic crises. The City continues to expect a positive outcome to build a strong, resilient, and equitable recovery by bridging investments that support long-term growth, opportunity, and sustainability. The City of Tampa successfully executed an agreement totaling nearly $90 million with the U.S. Department of Treasury and the Department of Housing and Urban Development to assist Tampa citizens back to positive health and economic recovery. The City’s Annual Comprehensive Financial Report shows nearly $73 million of related expenditures for fiscal years 2023, 2022 and 2021 as of September 30, 2023.

Tampa, Florida Report on the Audit of the Financial Statements Opinion We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the Tampa Historic Streetcar, Inc. (the “Streetcar”) as of and for the year ended September 30, 2023, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the Streetcar’s financial statements, as listed in the table of contents. In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of the Streetcar as of September 30, 2023, and the respective changes in financial position and its cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Basis for Opinion 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 Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are required to be independent of the Streetcar, and to meet our other ethical responsibilities, in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements relating to our audit. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion. Responsibilities of Management for the Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accord- ance 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. In preparing the financial statements, management is required to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Streetcar’s ability to continue as a going concern for twelve months beyond the financial statement date, including any currently known information that may raise substantial doubt shortly thereafter. 1 Board of Directors Tampa Historic Streetcar, Inc. Auditor’s Responsibility for the Audit of the Financial Statements Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinions. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and therefore is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards and Government Auditing Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Misstatements are considered material if there is a substantial likelihood that, individually or in the aggregate, they would influence the judgment made by a reasonable user based on the financial statements. In performing an audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards and Government Auditing Standards, we: • Exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. • Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, and design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. • Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit 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 Streetcar’s internal control. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed. • Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluate the overall presentation of the financial statements. • Conclude whether, in our judgment, there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Streetcar’s ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time. We are required to communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit, significant audit findings, and certain internal control-related matters that we identified during the audit. Required Supplementary Information Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the Management’s Discussion and Analysis, as listed in the table of contents, be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such information, although not a part of the basic financial statements, is required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board, who considers it to be an essential part of financial reporting for placing the basic financial statements in an appropriate operational, economic, or historical context. We have applied certain limited procedures to the required supplementary information in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which consisted of inquiries of management about the methods of preparing the information and comparing the information for consis- tency with management’s responses to our inquiries, the basic financial statements, and other knowledge we obtained during our audit of the basic financial statements. We do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on the information because the limited procedures do not provide us with sufficient evi- dence to express an opinion or provide any assurance. 2 B-202 Board of Directors Tampa Historic Streetcar, Inc. Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated March 13, 2024, on our consideration of the Streetcar’s internal control over financial reporting and on our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements and other matters. The purpose of that report is to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over financial reporting and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on internal control over financial reporting or on compliance. That report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the Streetcar’s internal control over financial reporting and compliance.

(A Component Unit of the City of Tampa) Management’s Discussion and Analysis (Unaudited) September 30, 2023 This discussion and analysis of the Tampa Historic Streetcar, Inc.’s (the Streetcar) financial performance provides an overview of the financial activities for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2023. Please review in conjunction with the audited financial statementswhich begin on page 9. Required Financial Statements The financial statements of the Streetcar report information about the activity for the Streetcar using accounting methods similar to those used by private sector companies. These statements offer short and long-term financial information about its activities. The Statementof Net Position includes all of the Streetcar’s assets and liabilities and provides information about the nature and amounts of investments in resources (assets) and the obligations to theStreetcar’s creditors (liabilities). The assets and liabilities are presented in a classified format, which distinguishes between current and long-term assets and liabilities, and deferred outflows and inflows of resources. It also provides the basis for assessing the liquidity andfinancial flexibility of the Streetcar. All of the current year's revenues and expenses are accounted for in the Statement of Revenues, Expenses, and Changes in Net Position. Thisstatement measures the success of the Streetcar’s operations over the past year and can be used to determine whether the Streetcar has successfully recovered all of its costs through itsactivities, as well as its profitability and credit worthiness. The final required financial statement is the Statement of Cash Flows. The primary purpose of this statement is to provide information about the Streetcar’s cash receipts and cash payments during thereporting period. The statement reports cash receipts, cash payments and net changes in cash resulting from operating, investing and financing activities and provides answers to suchquestions as, “Where did cash come from? What was cash used for? What was the change in the cash balance during the reporting period?” Financial Analysis of the Streetcar Our analysis of the Streetcar begins with the Statement of Net Position. One of the most important questions asked about the Streetcar’s finances is, "Is the Streetcar as a wholebetter off or worse off as a result of the year's activities?" The Statement of Net Position and the Statement of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Net Position report information aboutthe Streetcar’s activities in a way that will help answer this question. These two statements report the net financial position of the Streetcar and the changes in net position. 5 Tampa Historic Streetcar, Inc. (A Component Unit of the City of Tampa) Management’s Discussion and Analysis (continued) (Unaudited) September 30, 2023 Net Position To begin our analysis, a summary of the Streetcar’s Statement of Net Position is presented inTable A-1.

Debt Administration The Streetcar does not have any debt. 6 B-204 Tampa Historic Streetcar, Inc.

(A Component Unit of the City of Tampa) Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2023 1. Organization Tampa Historic Streetcar, Inc. (the Streetcar) was incorporated November 20, 1998, in the State ofFlorida, as a not-for-profit organization. The City of Tampa (the City) completed construction of anelectric streetcar rail line and in conjunction with the Hillsborough Area Regional Transit Authority (HART) and the Streetcar, renewed an Operation Agreement on October 1, 2011 for a period of five (5) years. The agreement is automatically renewed each year for a period of one year and expired onSeptember 30, 2023 and entered into a new five year term agreement which will expire on September30, 2028. Operation of the Streetcar began in October 2002. The Operation Agreement defines therights and obligations of the City, HART, and the Streetcar. Under the Operation Agreement, after the City has approved the Streetcar’s annual budget, the City is responsible for reimbursing the Streetcar for any deficiency of revenues and support received under expenses incurred, if the expenses wereincluded in the annual budget approved by the City. The City approved the Streetcar’s annual plan forthe years ending September 30, 2023 and 2024. The Streetcar is reported as a discretely presented component unit in the City's basic financial statements. As such, the Streetcar’s financial statements are presented in accordance with theprovisions of the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) as an enterprise fund, as theyare considered a special purpose government engaged solely in business-type activities. The Boardof Directors (Board) is made up of five City appointees, and three HART appointees. Since a controlling majority of the members of the Board are appointed by a local government, the Streetcar reports using governmental guidelines. The Streetcar’s mission is to provide a 2.7 mile light rail transportation system linking DowntownTampa within the Community Redevelopment Areas (CRA) of Channelside and Ybor City entertainment districts, thereby reducing traffic congestion and encouraging economic development in the area. 2. Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Accounting The financial statements of the Streetcar are accounted by using the flow of economic resourcesmeasurement focus, and the accrual basis of accounting, whereby revenues are recognized whenearned and expenses are recognized when incurred. The accounting and reporting policies of theStreetcar conform to the accounting guidance established by GASB. The Streetcar applies all applicable GASB pronouncements. In the Statement of Revenues, Expenses, and Changes in Net Position, revenues and expenses aredistinguished between operating and non-operating items. Operating revenues and expensesgenerally result from providing services in connection with the Streetcar’s ongoing operations. Operating expenses include the costs of providing services, including operation and maintenance. All revenues and expenses not meeting this definition are reported as non-operating revenues andexpenses. When both restricted and unrestricted resources are available for use, it is the Streetcar’spolicy to use restricted resources first, then unrestricted resources as they are needed. 15 Tampa Historic Streetcar, Inc.(A Component Unit of the City of Tampa) Notes to Financial Statements (continued) September 30, 2023 GASB Statement 34, Basic Financial Statements-and Management’s Discussion and Analysis-forState and Local Governments, as amended by GASB Statement No. 63, Financial Reporting of Deferred Outflows of Resources, Deferred Inflows of Resources, and Net Position, also requires the classification of net position into three components – net investment in capital assets, restricted, and unrestricted. The Streetcar has no capital assets nor restricted net position. The relevantclassifications are defined as follows: Net Investment in Capital Assets The net investment in capital assets component of net position consists of capital assets, net of accumulated depreciation and reduced by the outstanding balances of any bonds, mortgages, notesor other borrowings that are attributable to the acquisition, construction or improvement of thoseassets. If there are significant unspent related debt proceeds at year-end, the portion of the debtattributable to the unspent proceeds is not included in the calculation of investment in capital assets, net of related debt. Rather, that portion of the debt is included in the same net position component as the unspent proceeds. The Streetcar has no capital assets or related debt and therefore, noinvestment in capital assets. Restricted The restricted component of net position consists of constraints placed on net position use throughexternal factors imposed by creditors (such as through debt covenants), grantors, contributors, orlaws or regulations of other governments. The Streetcar has no restricted net position. Unrestricted Net Position The unrestricted component of net position consists of assets net of liabilities that do not meet the definition of "restricted" or "net investment in capital assets". Cash and Cash Equivalents Pooled Cash with City represents cash held in the City’s pooled cash account and are consideredavailable for immediate use. For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Streetcar considers all highly liquid debt instruments with original maturities of three months or less, if any, to be cash equivalents. Receivables, Payables and Unearned Revenue Accounts receivable balances are shown at gross. It is the opinion of management that all receivables are fully collectible and therefore, no allowance has been established. Accounts payable are accrued when services are rendered and a liability is incurred. Unearned revenues representamounts received which have not yet been earned. 16 B-209 Tampa Historic Streetcar, Inc.(A Component Unit of the City of Tampa) Notes to Financial Statements (continued) September 30, 2023 Capital Assets The Streetcar owns no capital assets; all capital assets used in the Streetcar operations are ownedeither by the City or HART. Assessments, Farebox Revenues, Contributions, and Grants Non-Ad Valorem assessments and CRA incremental tax revenues are recorded in the period they arelevied. Farebox revenues are recognized in the period they are collected. Unrestricted contributionsare recognized at fair value when received. Grant revenues are recognized when all eligibility requirements have been met. Tax Status The Streetcar has received a favorable determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service, and is exempt from federal income taxes under Internal Revenue Code (IRC) Section 501 (a) as anorganization described in Section 501(c)(3). 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 estimates and assumptions that affectthe reported amounts of assets, liabilities, deferred outflows and inflows of resources, and disclosureof contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts ofrevenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. 3. Cash and Cash Equivalents By agreement, the Streetcar transferred its funds to the City to invest in the City’s Pooled Cashaccount. The custodial agreement between the Streetcar and the City allows the relationship to becanceled on thirty (30) days notice, so while the Streetcar participates in the City's Pooled Cash account, the funds are considered liquid and have therefore been classified as Cash and Cash Equivalents in the financial statements. Interest earned from Pooled Cash with City is allocated to the Streetcar based on the Streetcar’saverage equity balance. Total interest earned for the year ending September 30, 2023, was $20,944, at an average rate of 9.55%. Disclosures relating to interest rate risk, credit risk, custodian risk, concentration of credit risk, and fair value disclosures, can be found in the City’s ComprehensiveAnnual Financial Report. 4. Accounts Receivable-Net Accounts receivable consist of $111,677 from HART for operating revenues and grants. 5. Prepaids and Other Assets Prepaids and Other Assets consist of $438,946 in prepaid excess liability and general liability insurance premiums. 17 Tampa Historic Streetcar, Inc.(A Component Unit of the City of Tampa) Notes to Financial Statements (continued) September 30, 2023 6. Accounts Payable Accounts payable consist of $13,233 to HART for operating expenses and $900 for audit expenses,for a total of $14,133. 7. Unearned Revenue Unearned revenues consist of $27,608 ($3,451 current and $24,157 long term) received in advanceon certain naming right agreements which are recognized in future periods. Revenue is recognized inthe Statement of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Net Position over the life of the agreement asa component of charges for sales and services. 8. Lease Revenue There were no lease revenues collected in the fiscal year 2023. Operating revenues include amountscollected from the leasing of cars to third parties for special events. The arrangements associatedwith these leases are designed for a short term (i.e., one to two days) and are typically paid in full atthe lease commencement date. Any amounts paid prior to the lease commencement date are reflected as Unearned Revenue, as resources received in advance of an exchange transaction do not qualify as deferred inflows of resources. 9. Risk Management Liabilities of the Streetcar are reported when it is probable that a loss has occurred and the amount ofthe loss can be estimated. The Streetcar has purchased seven commercial insurance policies whichprovide $75,000,000 of general liability coverage for CSX should an accident occur at the location where the streetcar line and the CSX line intersect. In addition, the Streetcar carries general liability insurance. For the past three years, losses have not exceeded coverage. 10. Related Party Disclosures The Streetcar has a five (5) year operating agreement with HART that was renewed on October 1,2011, and expired on September 30, 2016. Under this agreement, HARTmanages the Streetcar forthe City and is reimbursed for operating costs. The agreement was automatically renewed annually for a period of one year through September 30, 2023. The Streetcar has a five (5) year operating agreement with HART that began on October 1, 2023, and will expire on September 30, 2028.

Tampa, Florida We have audited, in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards issued by the Comptroller General of the United States, the financial statements of the Tampa Historic Streetcar, Inc. (the “Streetcar”) as of and for the year ended September 30, 2023, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the Streetcar’s financial statements and have issued our report thereon March 13, 2024. Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements, we considered the Streetcar’s internal control over financial reporting (internal control) as a basis for designing 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 Streetcar’s internal control. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the Streetcar’s internal control. A deficiency in internal control exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent or detect and correct misstatements on a timely basis. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the entity’s financial statements will not be prevented, 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 severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged with governance. Our consideration of internal control over financial reporting was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph of this section and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting that might be material weaknesses or significant deficiencies. Given these limitations, during our audit we did not identify any deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting that we consider to be material weaknesses. However, material weaknesses may exist that have not been identified. 21 Board of Directors Tampa Historic Streetcar, Inc. Report on Compliance and Other Matters As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the Streetcar’s financial statements are free of material misstatement, we performed tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, grant agreements and contracts, noncompliance with which could have a direct and material effect on the financial statements. However, providing an opinion on compliance with those provisions 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 matters that are required to be reported under Government Auditing Standards. Purpose of this Report The purpose of this report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effectiveness of the Streetcar’s internal control or on compliance. This report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the Streetcar’s internal control and compliance. Accordingly, this communication is not suitable for any other purpose.

Any Bond may be signed and sealed on behalf of the Issuer by such person who at the actual time of the execution of such Bond shall hold the proper office of the Issuer, although at the date of such Bond such person may not have held such office or may not have been so authorized. The Issuer may adopt and use for such purposes the facsimile signatures of any such persons who shall have held such offices at any time after the date of the adoption of this Resolution, notwithstanding that either or both shall have ceased to hold such office at the time the Bonds shall be actually sold and delivered. SECTION 2.03. AUTHENTICATION. No Bond of any Series shall be secured hereunder or entitled to the benefit hereof or shall be valid or obligatory for any purpose unless there shall be manually endorsed on such Bond a certificate of authentication by the Registrar or such other entity as may be approved by the Issuer for such purpose. Such certificate on any Bond shall be conclusive evidence that such Bond has been duly authenticated and delivered under this Resolution. The form of such certificate shall be substantially in the form provided in Section 2.07 hereof. SECTION 2.04. TEMPORARY BONDS. Until the definitive Bonds of any Series are prepared, the Issuer may execute, in the same manner as is provided in Section 2.02, and deliver, upon authentication by the Registrar pursuant to Section 2.03 hereof, in lieu of definitive Bonds, but subject to the same provisions, limitations and conditions as the definitive Bonds, except as to the denominations thereof, one or more temporary Bonds substantially of the tenor of the definitive Bonds in lieu of which such temporary Bond or Bonds are issued, in denominations authorized by the Issuer by subsequent resolution and with such omissions, insertions and variations as may be appropriate to temporary Bonds. The Issuer, at its own expense, shall prepare and execute definitive Bonds, which shall be authenticated by the Registrar. Upon the surrender of such temporary Bonds for exchange, the Registrar, without charge to the Holder thereof, shall deliver in exchange therefor definitive Bonds, of the same aggregate principal amount and Series and maturity as the temporary Bonds surrendered. Until so exchanged, the temporary Bonds shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits and security as definitive Bonds issued pursuant to this Resolution. All temporary Bonds surrendered in exchange for another temporary Bond or Bonds or for a definitive Bond or Bonds shall be forthwith cancelled by the Registrar. SECTION 2.05. BONDS MUTILATED, DESTROYED, STOLEN OR LOST. In case any Bond shall become mutilated, or be destroyed, stolen or lost, the Issuer may, in its discretion, issue and deliver, and the Registrar shall authenticate, a new Bond of like tenor as the Bond so mutilated, destroyed, stolen or lost, in exchange and substitution for such mutilated Bond upon surrender and cancellation of such mutilated Bond or in lieu of and substitution for the Bond destroyed, stolen or lost, and upon the Holder furnishing the Issuer and the Registrar proof of his ownership thereof and 19 satisfactory indemnity and complying with such other reasonable regulations and conditions as the Issuer or the Registrar may prescribe and paying such expenses as the Issuer and the Registrar may incur. All Bonds so surrendered shall be cancelled by the Registrar. If any of the Bonds shall have matured or be about to mature, instead of issuing a substitute Bond, the Issuer may pay the same or cause the Bond to be paid, upon being indemnified as aforesaid, and if such Bonds be lost, stolen or destroyed, without surrender thereof. Any such duplicate Bonds issued pursuant to this Section 2.05 shall constitute original, additional contractual obligations on the part of the Issuer whether or not the lost, stolen or destroyed Bond be at any time found by anyone, and such duplicate Bond shall be entitled to equal and proportionate benefits and rights as to lien on the Pledged Funds to the same extent as all other Bonds issued hereunder. SECTION 2.06. INTERCHANGEABILITY, NEGOTIABILITY AND TRANSFER. Bonds, upon surrender thereof at the office of the Registrar with a written instrument of transfer satisfactory to the Registrar, duly executed by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, may, at the option of the Holder thereof, be exchanged for an equal aggregate principal amount of registered Bonds of the same Series and maturity of any other authorized denominations. The Bonds issued under this Resolution shall be and have all the qualities and incidents of negotiable instruments under the law merchant and the Uniform Commercial Code of the State of Florida, subject to the provisions for registration and transfer contained in this Resolution and in the Bonds. So long as any of the Bonds shall remain Outstanding, the Issuer shall maintain and keep, at the office of the Registrar, books for the registration and transfer of the Bonds. Each Bond shall be transferable only upon the books of the Issuer, at the office of the Registrar, under such reasonable regulations as the Issuer may prescribe, by the Holder thereof in person or by his attorney duly authorized in writing upon surrender thereof together with a written instrument of transfer satisfactory to the Registrar duly executed and guaranteed by the Holder or his duly authorized attorney. Upon the transfer of any such Bond, the Issuer shall issue, and cause to be authenticated, in the name of the transferee a new Bond or Bonds of the same aggregate principal amount and Series and maturity as the surrendered Bond. The Issuer, the Registrar and any Paying Agent or fiduciary of the Issuer may deem and treat the Person in whose name any Outstanding Bond shall be registered upon the books of the Issuer as the absolute owner of such Bond, whether such Bond shall be overdue or not, for the purpose of receiving payment of, or on account of, the principal or Redemption Price, if applicable, and interest on such Bond and for all other purposes, and all such payments so made to any such Holder or upon his order shall be valid and effectual to satisfy and discharge the liability upon such Bond to the extent of the sum or sums so paid and neither the Issuer nor the Registrar nor any 20 C-12 Paying Agent or other fiduciary of the Issuer shall be affected by any notice to the contrary. The Registrar, in any case where it is not also the Paying Agent in respect to any Series of Bonds, forthwith (A) following the fifteenth day prior to an Interest Date for such Series; (B) following the fifteenth day next preceding the date of first mailing of notice of redemption of any Bonds of such Series; and (C) at any other time as reasonably requested by the Paying Agent of such Series, shall certify and furnish to such Paying Agent the names, addresses and holdings of Bondholders and any other relevant information reflected in the registration books. Any Paying Agent of any fully registered Bond shall effect payment of interest on such Bonds by mailing a check to the Holder entitled thereto or may, in lieu thereof, upon the request of such Holder, transmit such payment by bank wire transfer for the account of such Holder.

For every such exchange or transfer of Bonds, the Issuer or the Registrar may make a charge sufficient to reimburse it for any tax, fee, expense or other governmental charge required to be paid with respect to such exchange or transfer. The Issuer and the Registrar shall not be obligated to make any such exchange or transfer of Bonds of any Series during the 15 days next preceding an Interest Date on the Bonds of such Series ( other than Capital Appreciation Bonds and Variable Rate Bonds), or, in the case of any proposed redemption of Bonds of such Series, then, for the Bonds subject to redemption, during the 15 days next preceding the date of the first mailing of notice of such redemption and continuing until such redemption date.

The Issuer shall, at least 45 days prior to the redemption date (unless a shorter time period shall be satisfactory to the Registrar) notify the Registrar of such redemption date and of the principal amount of Bonds to be redeemed and, if less than all of the Outstanding Bonds are to be redeemed, the particular maturities and portions thereof to be redeemed. For purposes of any redemption of less than all of the Outstanding Bonds of a single maturity, the particular Bonds or portions of Bonds to be redeemed shall be selected not more than 45 days and not less than 35 days prior to the redemption date by the Registrar from the Outstanding Bonds of the maturity or maturities designated by the Issuer by such method as the Registrar shall deem fair and appropriate and which may provide for the selection for redemption of Bonds or portions of Bonds in principal amounts of $5,000 and integral multiples thereof.

Failure to mail such notice to such depositories or services or the Holders of the Bonds to be redeemed, or any defect therein, shall not affect the proceedings for redemption of Bonds as to which no such failure or defect has occurred. Such notice shall also be mailed to the Insurer or Credit Bank, if any, of such redeemed Bonds. Failure of any Holder to receive any notice mailed as herein provided shall not affect the proceedings for redemption of such Holder's Bonds. Notice of optional redemption of Bonds shall only be sent if the Issuer reasonably determines it shall have sufficient funds available to pay the Redemption Price of and interest on the Bonds called for redemption on the redemption date. Each notice of redemption shall state: ( l) the CUSIP numbers and any other distinguishing number or letter of all Bonds being redeemed, (2) the original issue date of such Bonds, (3) the maturity date and rate of interest borne by each Bond being redeemed, (4) the redemption date, (5) the Redemption Price, (6) the date on which such notice is mailed, (7) if less than all Outstanding Bonds are to be redeemed, the certificate number (and, in the case of a partial redemption of any Bond, the principal amount) of each Bond to be redeemed, (8) that on such redemption date there shall become due and payable upon each Bond to be redeemed the Redemption Price thereof, or the Redemption Price of the specified portions of the principal thereof in the case of Bonds to be redeemed in part only, together with interest accrued thereon to the redemption date, and that from and after such date interest thereon shall cease to accrue and be payable, (9) that the Bonds to be redeemed, whether as a whole or in part, are to surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price at the designated office of the Registrar at an address specified, ( 10) the name and telephone number of a person designated by the Registrar to be responsible for such redemption, (11) unless sufficient funds have been set aside by the Issuer for such purpose prior to the mailing of the notice of redemption, that such redemption is conditioned upon the deposit of sufficient funds for such purpose on or prior to the date set for redemption, and (12) any other conditions that must be satisfied prior to such redemption. In addition to the mailing of the notice described above, each notice of redemption and payment of the Redemption Price shall meet the following requirements; provided, however, the failure to provide such further notice of redemption or to comply with the terms of this paragraph shall not in any manner defeat the effectiveness of a call for redemption if notice thereof is given as prescribed above: (A) Each further notice of redemption shall be sent by certified mail or overnight delivery service or telecopy to all registered securities depositories then in the business of holding substantial amounts of obligations of types comprising the Bonds and to two or more national information services which disseminate notices of prepayment or redemption of obligations such as the Bonds. 31 (B) Each further notice of redemption shall be sent to such other Person, if any, as shall be required by applicable law or regulation. The Issuer may provide that a redemption may be contingent upon the occurrence of certain condition( s) and that if such condition( s) do not occur the notice of redemption will be rescinded, provided notice of rescission shall be mailed in the manner described above to all affected Bondholders as soon as practicable. SECTION 3.04. REDEMPTION OF PORTIONS OF BONDS. Any Bond which is to be redeemed only in part shall be surrendered at any place of payment specified in the notice of redemption (with due endorsement by, or written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Registrar duly executed by, the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing) and the Issuer shall execute and the Registrar shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Bond, without service charge, a new Bond or Bonds, of any authorized denomination, as requested by such Holder in an aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Bonds so surrendered. SECTION 3.05. PAYMENT OF REDEEMED BONDS. Notice of redemption having been given substantially as aforesaid, the Bonds or portions of Bonds so to be redeemed shall, on the redemption date, become due and payable at the Redemption Price therein specified, and from and after such date (unless the Issuer shall default in the payment of the Redemption Price) such Bonds or portions of Bonds shall cease to bear interest. Upon surrender of such Bonds for redemption in accordance with said notice, such Bonds shall be paid by the Registrar and/or Paying Agent at the appropriate Redemption Price, plus accrued interest. All Bonds which have been redeemed shall be cancelled and destroyed by the Registrar and shall not be reissued. SECTION 3.06. PURCHASE IN LIEU OF OPTIONAL REDEMPTION. Notwithstanding anything in this Resolution to the contrary, at any time the Bonds are subject to optional redemption pursuant to this Resolution, all or a portion of the Bonds to be redeemed as specified in the notice of redemption, may be purchased by the Paying Agent, as trustee, at the direction of the Issuer, on the date which would be the redemption date if such Bonds were redeemed rather than purchased in lieu thereof at a purchase price equal to the redemption price which would have been applicable to such Bonds on the redemption date for the account of and at the direction of the Issuer who shall give the Paying Agent, as trustee, notice at least ten days prior to the scheduled redemption date accompanied by an opinion of Bond Counsel to the effect that such purchase will not adversely affect the exclusion from gross income for federal income tax purposes of interest on such Bonds or any other Outstanding Bonds. In the event the Paying Agent, as trustee, is so directed to purchase Bonds in lieu of optional redemption, no notice to the holders of the Bonds to be so purchased ( other than the notice of redemption otherwise required under this Resolution) shall be required, and the Paying Agent, as trustee, shall be authorized to apply to such purchase the funds which would 32 C-18 have been used to pay the redemption price for such Bonds if such Bonds had been redeemed rather than purchased. Each Bond so purchased shall not be canceled or discharged and shall be registered in the name of the Issuer. Bonds to be purchased under this Resolution in the manner set forth above which are not delivered to the Paying Agent, as trustee, on the purchase date shall be deemed to have been so purchased and not optionally redeemed on the purchase date and shall cease to accrue interest as to the former holder thereof on the purchase date.

The Bonds shall not be or constitute general obligations or indebtedness of the Issuer as "bonds" within the meaning of any constitutional or statutory provision, but shall be special obligations of the Issuer, payable solely from and secured by a lien upon and pledge of the Pledged Funds, in the manner and to the extent provided in this Resolution. No Holder of any Bond shall ever have the right to compel the exercise of any ad valorem taxing power to pay such Bond, or be entitled to payment of such Bond from any moneys of the Issuer except from the Pledged Funds in the manner and to the extent provided herein. The Bonds and the obligations evidenced thereby shall not constitute a lien upon the System or any other property of the Issuer, but shall constitute a lien only on, and shall be payable solely from, the Pledged Funds. SECTION 4.02. SECURITY FOR BONDS. The payment of the principal of or Redemption Price, if applicable, and interest on the Bonds shall be secured forthwith equally and ratably by a pledge of and lien upon the Pledged Funds; provided, however, a Series of Bonds may be further secured by a Credit Facility or Bond Insurance Policy in addition to the security provided herein; and provided further that a Series of Bonds may be secured independently of any other Series of Bonds by the establishment of a separate subaccount in the Reserve Account for such Series of Bonds or by not being secured in any manner by the Reserve Account as provided in a Supplemental Resolution; and provided, further that the Previously Issued Bonds shall be secured by the respective Prior Reserve Account, if any. Issuers of a Reserve Account Insurance Policy or Reserve Account Letter of Credit shall be secured in accordance with the provisions hereof. In addition, the Issuer does hereby irrevocably pledge and grant a lien upon the Pledged Funds to the payment of the Policy Costs in accordance with the provisions hereof; provided, however, such pledge and lien shall be junior and subordinate in all respects to the pledge of and lien upon such Pledged Funds granted hereby to the Bondholders. The Issuer does hereby irrevocably pledge the Pledged Funds to the payment of the principal of or Redemption Price, if applicable, and interest on the Bonds in accordance with the provisions hereof. Except as otherwise provided by Supplemental Resolution, the obligation of the Issuer to make Hedge Payments to a Counterparty pursuant to a Qualified Hedge Agreement shall be on parity with the Bonds as to lien on and pledge of the Pledged Funds in accordance with the terms hereof ( any other payments related to a Qualified Hedge Agreement, including fees, penalties, termination payments and the obligation to collateralize, shall be Subordinated Indebtedness of the Issuer). The Pledged Funds shall immediately be subject to the lien of this pledge without any physical delivery thereof or further act, and the lien of this pledge shall be valid and binding as against all parties having claims of any kind in tort, contract or otherwise against the Issuer. 34 C-19 SECTION 4.03. SEPARATE ACCOUNTS. The moneys required to be accounted for in each of the funds, accounts and subaccounts established in this Resolution, particularly those described in this Article IV, may be deposited in a single bank account, and funds allocated to the various funds, accounts and subaccounts established herein may be invested in a common investment pool, provided that adequate accounting records are maintained to reflect and control the restricted allocation of the moneys on deposit therein and such investments for the various purposes of such funds, accounts and subaccounts as herein provided. The designation and establishment of the various funds, accounts and subaccounts in and by this Resolution shall not be construed to require the establishment of any completely independent, self-balancing funds as such term is commonly defined and used in governmental accounting, but rather is intended solely to constitute an earmarking of certain revenues for certain purposes and to establish certain priorities for application of such revenues as herein provided. SECTION 4.04. CONSTRUCTION FUND. The Issuer covenants and agrees to establish a special fund to be known as the "City of Tampa, Florida Water and Wastewater Systems Construction Fund," which shall be used only for payment of the Cost of a Project. Moneys in the Construction Fund, until applied in payment of any item of the Cost of a Project in the manner hereinafter provided, shall be subject to a lien and charge in favor of the Holders of the Bonds and for the further security of such Holders. There shall be paid into the Construction Fund the amounts required to be so paid by the provisions of this Resolution, and there may be paid into the Construction Fund, at the option of the Issuer, any moneys received for or in connection with a Project by the Issuer from any other source. The Issuer shall establish within the Construction Fund a separate account for each Project the Cost of which is to be paid in whole or in part out of the Construction Fund. The proceeds of insurance maintained pursuant to this Resolution against physical loss of or damage to a Project, or of contractors' performance bonds with respect thereto pertaining to the period of construction thereof, shall be deposited into the appropriate account of the Construction Fund. Any moneys received by the Issuer from the State or from the United States of America or any agencies thereof for the purpose of financing part of the Cost of a Project shall be deposited into the appropriate account of the Construction Fund and used in the same manner as other Bond proceeds are used therein; provided that separate accounts or subaccounts may be established in the Construction Fund for moneys received pursuant to the provisions of this paragraph whenever required by Federal or State law. The Issuer covenants that the acquisition, construction and installation of each Project will be completed without delay and in accordance with sound engineering 35 practices. The Issuer shall make disbursements or payments from the applicable account of the Construction Fund to pay Costs of the Project for which it was established, except as otherwise provided below. The Issuer shall keep records of such disbursements and payments and shall retain all such records for such period of time as required by applicable law. The Issuer shall make available the records at all reasonable times for inspection by any Holder of any of the Bonds or the agent or representative of any Holder of any of the Bonds. Notwithstanding any of the other provisions of this Section 4.04, to the extent that other moneys are not available therefor, amounts in an account of the Construction Fund shall be applied to the payment of principal and interest on Bonds. The date of completion of the acquisition, construction and equipping of a Project shall be documented by an Authorized Issuer Officer or the City Clerk in the appropriate records of the Issuer. Promptly after the date of the completion of a Project, and after paying or making provision for the payment of all unpaid items of the Cost of such Project, the Issuer shall deposit in the following order of priority any balance of moneys remaining in an account in the Construction Fund in (A) another account of the Construction Fund for which an Authorized Issuer Officer has determined that there are insufficient moneys present to pay the Cost of the related Project, (B) the Reserve Account, to the extent of a deficiency therein, and (C) such other fund or account established hereunder as shall be determined by the Issuer or for any other lawful purpose, provided the Issuer has received the prior approval of Bond Counsel to the effect that such transfer shall not adversely affect the exclusion, if any, of interest on the Bonds (other than Taxable Bonds) from gross income for purposes of Federal income taxation or shall not otherwise affect the status of any Outstanding Bonds issued as Federal Subsidy Bonds or the Issuer's receipt of Federal Subsidy Payments with respect to any Outstanding Federal Subsidy Bonds. SECTION 4.05. CREATION OF FUNDS AND ACCOUNTS. The Issuer covenants and agrees to establish the following funds and accounts: (A) The "City of Tampa, Florida Water and Wastewater Systems Revenue Fund." (B) The "City of Tampa, Florida Water and Wastewater Systems Operation and Maintenance Fund." (C) The "City of Tampa, Florida Water and Wastewater Systems Sinking Fund." The Issuer shall maintain four separate accounts in the Sinking Fund: the "Interest Account," the "Principal Account," the "Term Bonds Redemption Account" and the "Reserve Account." 36 C-20 (D) The "City of Tampa, Florida Water and Wastewater Systems Water Connection Fees Fund." (E) The "City of Tampa, Florida Water and Wastewater Systems Wastewater Connection Fees Fund." (F) The "City of Tampa, Florida Water and Wastewater Systems Special Assessments Fund." (G) The "City of Tampa, Florida Water and Wastewater Systems Renewal and Replacement Fund." (H) The "City of Tampa, Florida Water and Wastewater Systems Utility Reserve Fund." (I) The "City of Tampa, Florida Water and Wastewater Systems Rebate Fund." (J) The "City of Tampa, Florida Water and Wastewater Systems Rate Stabilization Fund." Moneys in the aforementioned funds and accounts (except for moneys in the Rebate Fund), until applied in accordance with the provisions hereof, shall be subject to a lien and charge in favor of the Holders of the Bonds and for the further security of such Holders, to the extent provided herein. The Issuer may at any time and from time to time appoint one or more depositaries to hold, for the benefit of the Bondholders, any one or more of the funds and accounts established hereby. Such depositary or depositaries shall perform at the direction of the Issuer the duties of the Issuer in depositing, transferring and disbursing moneys to and from each of such funds or accounts as herein set forth, and all records of such depositary in performing such duties shall be open at all reasonable times to inspection by the Issuer and its agents and employees. Any such depositary shall be a bank or trust company duly authorized to exercise corporate trust powers and subject to examination by federal or state authority, of good standing, and be qualified under applicable State law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the aforementioned funds and accounts are required to be established prior to the time any such fund or account is required to be funded or otherwise utilized hereunder. SECTION 4.06. DISPOSITION OF GOVERNMENT GRANTS, GROSS REVENUES AND SPECIAL ASSESSMENTS. (A) (1) In the event the Issuer receives a Government Grant, the use and withdrawal of moneys from such Government Grant shall be governed by the terms of the Government Grant and applicable law. 37 (2) The Issuer shall deposit promptly, as received, all Gross Revenues (other than subsequently pledged Special Assessments Proceeds) into the Revenue Fund. Moneys in Revenue Fund shall first be used each month to deposit in the Operation and Maintenance Fund such sums as are necessary to pay Operating Expenses for the ensuing month; provided the Issuer may transfer moneys from the Revenue Fund to the Operation and Maintenance Fund at any time to pay Operating Expenses to the extent there is a deficiency in the Operation and Maintenance Fund for such purpose. Amounts in the Operation and Maintenance Fund shall be paid out from time to time by the Issuer for Operating Expenses, including any expenses relating to the purchase or redemption of Term Bonds as provided in Section 4.06(B)(3) hereof. The remaining moneys in the Revenue Fund shall be applied in accordance with Section 4.06(B) hereof. (3) To the extent Special Assessments Proceeds are made a component of the Gross Revenues, the Issuer shall deposit promptly, as received, all Special Assessments Proceeds into the Special Assessments Fund. In the event the Issuer by Supplemental Resolution provides for all or a portion of any Special Assessments to secure the payment of all or a portion of a particular Series of Bonds, the Issuer may establish separate accounts or subaccounts for the deposit of such Special Assessments if necessary to provide for the earlier redemption of such Bonds from such Special Assessments. Moneys in the Special Assessments Fund shall be applied in accordance with Section 4.06(B) hereof. (B) Any deposits remaining in the Revenue Fund after the aforementioned transfers to the Operation and Maintenance Fund and all moneys at any time on deposit in the Special Assessments Fund (subject to the provisions above regarding earlier redemption of Bonds) shall be disposed ofby the Issuer on or before the 25th day of each month, commencing in the month immediately following the delivery of any of the Bonds to the purchasers thereof, or such later date as hereinafter provided, first from the Special Assessments Fund and then from the Revenue Fund in the following manner and in the following order of priority: ( 1) Interest Account. The Issuer shall deposit or credit to the Interest Account the sum which, together with the balance in said Account, shall equal the interest on all Bonds Outstanding ( except as to Capital Appreciation Bonds) accrued and unpaid and to accrue to the end of the then current calendar month. All Hedge Receipts and Federal Subsidy Payments shall be deposited directly to the Interest Account upon receipt. With respect to interest on Bonds which have corresponding Hedge Payments, interest on such Bonds during the term of the Qualified Hedge Agreement shall also be deemed to include 38 C-21 the corresponding Hedge Payments. Moneys in the Interest Account shall be applied by the Issuer (a) for deposit with the Paying Agents to pay the interest on the Bonds on or prior to the date the same shall become due and (b) for Hedge Payments. Any Federal Subsidy Payments deposited to the Interest Account shall be deemed to have been applied to the payment of interest on the Federal Subsidy Bonds to which such Payments relate. The Issuer shall adjust the amount of the deposit to the Interest Account not later than a month immediately preceding any Interest Date so as to provide sufficient moneys in the Interest Account to pay the interest on the Bonds coming due on such Interest Date. No further deposit need be made to the Interest Account when the moneys therein are equal to the interest coming due on the Outstanding Bonds on the next succeeding Interest Date. With respect to debt service on any Bonds which are subject to a Qualified Hedge Agreement, any Hedge Payments due to the Counterparty to the Qualified Hedge Agreement relating to such Bonds shall be paid to such Counterparty on a parity basis with the aforesaid required payments into the Sinking Fund. In computing the interest on Variable Rate Bonds which shall accrue during a calendar month, the interest rate on such Variable Rate Bonds shall be assumed to be (A) if such Variable Rate Bonds have been Outstanding for at least 24 months prior to the commencement of such calendar month, the highest average interest rate borne by such Variable Rate Bonds for any 30- day period, and (B) if such Variable Rate Bonds have not been Outstanding for at least 24 months prior to the date of calculation, the Bond Buyer Revenue Bond Index most recently published prior to the commencement of such calendar month. (2) Principal Account. Commencing in the month which is one year prior to the first principal payment date, the Issuer shall next deposit into the Principal Account the sum which, together with the balance in said Account, shall equal the principal amounts on all Bonds Outstanding accrued and unpaid and that portion of the principal next due which would have accrued on such Bonds during the then current calendar month if such principal amounts were deemed to accrue monthly ( assuming that a year consists of 12 equivalent calendar months having 30 days each) except for the Sinking Fund Installments to be deposited pursuant to Section 4.06(B)(3) hereof, in equal amounts from the next preceding principal payment due date, or, if there be no such preceding payment due date from a date no later than one year preceding the due date of such principal amount. Moneys in the Principal Account shall be applied by the Issuer for deposit with the Paying Agents to pay the principal of the Bonds on or prior to the date the same shall mature, and for no other purpose. Serial Capital Appreciation Bonds shall be payable from the Principal Account in the years in which such Bonds mature and monthly payments into the Principal Account on account of such Bonds shall commence in the twelfth month immediately preceding the maturity date of such Bonds. The Issuer shall adjust the amount of the deposit to the Principal Account not later than the month immediately preceding any principal payment date so as to provide sufficient moneys in the Principal Account to pay the principal on Bonds becoming due on such principal payment date. No further deposit need be made to the Principal Account when the 39 moneys therein are equal to the principal coming due on the Outstanding Bonds on the next succeeding principal payment date. (3) Term Bonds Redemption Account. Commencing in the month which is one year prior to the first Sinking Fund Installment due date, there shall be deposited to the Term Bonds Redemption Account the sum which, together with the balance in such Account, shall equal the Sinking Fund Installments on all Bonds Outstanding accrued and unpaid and that portion of the Sinking Fund Installments of all Bonds Outstanding next due which would have accrued on such Bonds during the then current calendar month if such Sinking Fund Installments were deemed to accrue monthly (assuming that a year consists of 12 equivalent calendar months having 30 days each) in equal amounts from the next preceding Sinking Fund Installment due date, or, if there is no such preceding Sinking Fund Installment due date, from a date not later than one year preceding the due date of such Sinking Fund Installment. Moneys in the Term Bonds Redemption Account shall be used to purchase or redeem Term Bonds in the manner herein provided, and for no other purpose. Term Capital Appreciation bonds shall be payable from the Term Bonds Redemption Account in the years in which such Bonds mature and monthly payments into the Terms Bonds Redemption Account on account of such Bonds shall commence in the twelfth month immediately preceding the due date of the related Sinking Fund Installments. The Issuer shall adjust the amount of the deposit to the Term Bonds Redemption Account on the month immediately preceding any Sinking Fund Installment Date so as to provide sufficient moneys in the Term Bonds Redemption Account to pay the Sinking Fund Installments becoming due on such date. Payments to the Term Bonds Redemption Account shall be on parity with payments to the Principal Account. Amounts accumulated in the Term Bonds Redemption Account with respect to any Sinking Fund Installment (together with amounts accumulated in the Interest Account with respect to interest, if any, on the Term Bonds for which such Sinking Fund Installment was established) may be applied by the Issuer, on or prior to the 60th day preceding the due date of such Sinking Fund Installment, (a) to the purchase of Term Bonds of the Series and maturity for which such Sinking Fund Installment was established, or (b) to the redemption at the applicable Redemption Prices of such Term Bonds, if then redeemable by their terms. Amounts in the Term Bonds Redemption Account which are used to redeem Term Bonds shall be credited against the next succeeding Sinking Fund Installment which shall become due on such Term Bonds. The applicable Redemption Price (or principal amount of maturing Term Bonds) of any Term Bonds so purchased or redeemed shall be deemed to constitute part of the Term Bonds Redemption Account until such Sinking Fund Installment date, for the purposes of calculating the amount of such Account. As soon as practicable after the 60th day preceding the due date of any such Sinking Fund Installment, the Issuer shall proceed to call for redemption on such due date, by causing notice to be given as provided in Section 3.03 hereof, Term Bonds of the Series and maturity for which such Sinking Fund 40 C-22 Installment was established (except in the case of Term Bonds maturing on a Sinking Fund Installment date) in such amount as shall be necessary to complete the retirement of the unsatisfied balance of such Sinking Fund Installment. The Issuer shall pay out of the Term Bonds Redemption Account and the Interest Account to the appropriate Paying Agents, on or before the day preceding such redemption date ( or maturity date), the amount required for the redemption ( or for the payment of such Term Bonds then maturing), and such amount shall be applied by such Paying Agents to such redemption (or payment). All expenses in connection with the purchase or redemption of Term Bonds shall be paid by the Issuer from the Operation and Maintenance Fund. (4) Reserve Account. There shall be deposited to the Reserve Account an amount which would enable the Issuer to restore the funds on deposit in the Reserve Account to an amount equal to the Reserve Account Requirement applicable thereto. All deficiencies in the Reserve Account must be made up no later than 12 months from the date such deficiency first occurred, whether such shortfall was caused by an increase in the applicable Reserve Account Requirement, a decrease in the aggregate market value of the investments therein of more than 5% or withdrawal (whether from cash or a Reserve Account Insurance Policy or Reserve Account Letter of Credit). On or prior to each principal payment date and Interest Date for the Bonds (in no event earlier than the 25th day of the month next preceding such payment date), moneys in the Reserve Account shall be applied by the Issuer to the payment of the principal of or Redemption Price, if applicable, and interest on the Bonds to the extent moneys in the Interest Account, the Principal Account and the Term Bonds Redemption Account shall be insufficient for such purpose, but only to the extent the moneys transferred from the Utility Reserve Fund for such purposes pursuant to Section 4.06(8)(8) hereof shall be inadequate to fully provide for such insufficiency. Whenever there shall be surplus moneys in the Reserve Account by reason of a decrease in the Reserve Account Requirement or as a result of a deposit in the Reserve Account of a Reserve Account Letter of Credit or a Reserve Account Insurance Policy, such surplus moneys, to the extent practicable, shall be deposited by the Issuer into the Utility Reserve Fund and applied as directed by Bond Counsel. The Issuer shall promptly inform each Insurer and Credit Bank of any draw upon the Reserve Account for purposes of paying the principal of and interest on the Bonds. Upon the issuance of any Series of Bonds under the terms, limitations and conditions as herein provided, the Issuer shall fund the Reserve Account in an amount at least equal to the applicable Reserve Account Requirement to the extent such Series of Bonds are to be secured by the Reserve Account or any subaccount therein; provided, however, nothing herein shall be construed to require the Issuer to fund the Reserve Account or any subaccount for any Series of Bonds. Upon the adoption of the Supplemental Resolution authorizing the issuance of a Series of Bonds, the Issuer shall determine whether such Series of Bonds shall be secured by the Reserve Account or any subaccount therein and, if the Issuer determines that the Series of Bonds will be secured 41 by a separate subaccount therein, the Issuer shall also establish the Reserve Account Requirement applicable thereto. Such required amount, if any, shall be paid in full or in part from the proceeds of such Series of Bonds or may be accumulated in equal monthly payments to the Reserve Account or subaccount therein over a period of months from the date of issuance of such Series of Bonds, which shall not exceed 36 months. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, in lieu of or in substitution of any required deposits into the Reserve Account, the Issuer may cause to be deposited into the Reserve Account a Reserve Account Insurance Policy and/or Reserve Account Letter of Credit for the benefit of the Bondholders in an amount equal to the difference between the Reserve Account Requirement applicable thereto and the sums then on deposit in the Reserve Account, if any. The Issuer may also substitute a Reserve Account Insurance Policy and/or Reserve Account Letter of Credit for cash on deposit in the Reserve Account upon compliance with the terms of this Section 4.06(B)(4). Such Reserve Account Insurance Policy and/or Reserve Account Letter of Credit shall be payable to the Paying Agent (upon the giving of notice as required thereunder) on any Interest Date or redemption date on which a deficiency exists which cannot be cured by moneys in any other fund or account held pursuant to this Resolution and available for such purpose. Upon the initial deposit of any such Reserve Account Insurance Policy and/or Reserve Account Letter of Credit, the provider thereof shall be either ( a) an insurer whose municipal bond insurance policies insuring the payment, when due, or the principal of and interest on municipal bond issues results in such issues being rated in one of the three highest rating categories by at least two of the three Rating Agencies (without regard to gradations, such as "plus" or "minus" or "l," "2" or "3"), or (b) a commercial bank, insurance company or other financial institution which has been assigned a rating in one of the two highest rating categories by at least one of the three Rating Agencies (without regard to gradations, such as "plus" or "minus" or "l," "2" or "3"). Any Reserve Account Insurance Policy and/or Reserve Account Letter of Credit shall equally secure all Bonds secured by the Reserve Account or subaccount into which such Policy or Letter of Credit is deposited. Each Reserve Account Insurance Policy and Reserve Account Letter of Credit shall provide for a revolving feature under which the amount available thereunder will be reinstated to the extent of any reimbursement of draws or claims paid. If the revolving feature is suspended or terminated for any reason, the right of the provider of the Reserve Account Insurance Policy or Reserve Account Letter of Credit to reimbursement will be subordinated to cash replenishment of the Reserve Account to an amount equal to the difference between the full original amount available under the Reserve Account Insurance Policy or Reserve Account Letter of Credit and the amount then available for further draws or claims. If (a) the provider of a Reserve Account Insurance Policy or Reserve Account Letter of Credit becomes insolvent or (b) the provider of a Reserve Account Insurance Policy or Reserve Account Letter of Credit defaults in its payment obligations thereunder or ( c) the rating of the provider of a Reserve Account Insurance 42 C-23 Policy falls below a rating of "A-" or "A3" by all of the Rating Agencies then rating such provider or ( d) the rating of the provider of a Reserve Account Letter of Credit falls below a rating of "AA-" or "Aa3" by at least two of the three Rating Agencies, the obligation to reimburse the provider of the Reserve Account Insurance Policy or Reserve Account Letter of Credit shall be subordinate to the cash replenishment of the Reserve Account. Where applicable, the amount available for draws or claims under a Reserve Account Insurance Policy or Reserve Account Letter of Credit may be reduced by the amount of cash or investments deposited in the Reserve Account pursuant to the provisions hereof. If the revolving reinstatement feature described in the preceding paragraph is suspended or terminated or if the Reserve Account Insurance Policy or Reserve Account Letter of Credit is no longer valid and enforceable, the Issuer shall either (i) deposit into the Reserve Account an amount sufficient to cause the cash or investments on deposit in the Reserve Account or applicable subaccount to equal the Reserve Account Requirement on all Outstanding Bonds then secured by such Reserve Account or subaccount, such amount to be paid over the ensuing five years in equal installments deposited at least semi-annually or (ii) replace such instrument with a Reserve Account Insurance Policy or a Reserve Account Letter of Credit meeting the requirements described herein within six months of such occurrence. If three days prior to an interest or principal payment date, or such other period of time as shall be required by the terms of the Reserve Account Insurance Policy or Reserve Account Letter of Credit, the Issuer shall determine that a deficiency exists in the amount of moneys available to pay in accordance with the terms hereof interest and/or principal due on the Bonds on such date, the Issuer shall immediately notify (a) the issuer of the applicable Reserve Account Insurance Policy and/or the issuer of the Reserve Account Letter of Credit and submit a demand for payment pursuant to the provisions of such Reserve Account Insurance Policy and/or the Reserve Account Letter of Credit, (b) the Paying Agent, and (c) the Insurer or Credit Bank, if any, of the amount of such deficiency and the date on which such payment is due. The Issuer may evidence its obligation to reimburse the issuer of any Reserve Account Letter of Credit or Reserve Account Insurance Policy by executing and delivering to such issuer a promissory note or other evidence therefor; provided, however, any such note or evidence (a) shall not be a general obligation of the Issuer the payment of which is secured by the full faith and credit or taxing power of the Issuer, and (b) shall be payable solely from the Pledged Funds in the manner provided herein. The obligation to reimburse the provider of a Reserve Account Insurance Policy or Reserve Account Letter of Credit for any Policy Costs shall be subordinate to the payment of debt service on the Bonds. Any consent or approval of any Insurer described in this Section 4.06(B)( 4) shall be required only so long as there are Outstanding Bonds secured by a Bond Insurance 43 Policy issued by such Insurer which is in full force and effect and the commitments of which have been honored by such Insurer. The term "Paying Agent" as used in this Section 4.06(B)(4) may include one or more Paying Agents for the Outstanding Bonds. Whenever the amount of cash in the Reserve Account, together with the other amounts in the Debt Service Fund, are sufficient to fully pay all Outstanding Bonds in accordance with their terms (including principal or applicable Redemption Price and interest thereon), the funds on deposit in the Reserve Account may be transferred to the other Accounts of the Sinking Fund for the payment of the Bonds. The Issuer may also establish a separate subaccount in the Reserve Account for any Series of Bonds and provide a pledge of such subaccount to the payment of such Series of Bonds apart from the pledge provided herein. To the extent a Series of Bonds is secured separately by a subaccount of the Reserve Account, the Holders of such Bonds shall not be secured by any other moneys in the Reserve Account. Moneys in a separate subaccount of the Reserve Account shall be maintained at the Reserve Account Requirement applicable to such Series of Bonds secured by the subaccount; provided the Supplemental Resolution authorizing such Series of Bonds may establish the Reserve Account Requirement relating to such separate subaccount of the Reserve Account at such level as the Issuer deems appropriate. In the event the Issuer by Supplemental Resolution establishes the Reserve Account Requirement for a particular Series of Bonds to be zero (0.00) or it shall determine that such Series are not to be secured in any manner by the Reserve Account or a subaccount, then it shall not be required to establish a separate subaccount; provided, however, such Series of Bonds shall have no lien on or pledge of any moneys on deposit in the Reserve Account. Moneys used to replenish the Reserve Account shall be deposited in the separate subaccounts in the Reserve Account and in the Reserve Account on a pro-rata basis. In the event the Issuer shall maintain a Reserve Account Insurance Policy or Reserve Account Letter of Credit and moneys in any subaccount, the moneys shall be used prior to making any disbursements under such Reserve Account Insurance Policy or Reserve Account Letter of Credit. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Resolution, the Previously Issued Bonds shall not be secured in any manner by any portion of the Reserve Account or any subaccount therein. The Previously Issued Bonds shall be secured by the Prior Reserve Accounts to the extent and in the manner provided in the Resolution prior to its amendment and restatement pursuant to the provisions hereof and the supplemental resolutions adopted in connection with the Previously Issued Bonds. All of the applicable provisions of such Resolution and resolutions relating to the Previously Issued Bonds and the Prior Reserve Accounts are incorporated herein by reference. Deposits to the Prior Reserve Accounts shall be made on a pro rata basis with the deposits to the Reserve Account and any separate subaccounts therein. (5) Renewal and Replacement Fund. There shall be deposited to the Renewal and Replacement Fund monthly such sums as shall be sufficient to pay 1/12 of the 44 C-24 Renewal and Replacement Fund Requirement until the amount accumulated in such Fund is equal to the Renewal and Replacement Fund Requirement, taking into account the market value of investments in such Fund; provided, however, that (a) such Renewal and Replacement Fund Requirement may be increased or decreased as the Consulting Engineers shall certify to the Issuer is necessary for the purposes of the Renewal and Replacement Fund, and (b) in the event that the Consulting Engineers shall certify that the Renewal and Replacement Fund Requirement is excessive for the purposes of the Renewal and Replacement Fund such excess amount as may be on deposit therein may be transferred by the Issuer from the Renewal and Replacement Fund for deposit into the Utility Reserve Fund. The moneys in the Renewal and Replacement Fund shall be applied by the Issuer for the purpose of paying the cost of major extensions, improvements or additions to, or the replacement or renewal of capital assets of, the System or water facilities owned by the Issuer, or extraordinary repairs of the System or water facilities owned by the Issuer; provided, however, that on or prior to each principal and interest payment date for the Bonds (in no event earlier than the 25th day of the month next preceding such payment date), moneys in the Renewal and Replacement Fund shall be applied for the payment into the Interest Account, the Principal Account, and the Term Bonds Redemption Account when the moneys therein are insufficient to pay the principal of and interest on the Bonds coming due, but only to the extent moneys transferred from the Utility Reserve Fund for such purpose pursuant to Sections 4.06(B)(8) hereof, together with moneys available in the Reserve Account for such purpose pursuant to Section 4.06(B)(4) hereof, shall be inadequate to fully provide for such insufficiency. Moneys in the Renewal and Replacement Fund may also be transferred to the Operation and Maintenance Fund to fund Operating Expenses to the extent Gross Revenues shall be insufficient for such purpose; provided, however, such transfer shall be treated as an interfund loan and shall be repaid from Gross Revenues as described in this Section 4.06(B)(5) within one year from the date of such transfer. ( 6) Subordinated Indebtedness. Gross Revenues in the Revenue Fund shall next be applied by the Issuer for the payment of any accrued debt service on Subordinated Indebtedness incurred by the Issuer in connection with the System and in accordance with the proceedings authorizing such Subordinated Indebtedness. (7) Sinking Fund. There shall be deposited to the Interest Account, the Principal Account and the Term Bonds Redemption Account, in that order, sufficient moneys such that the amounts on deposit therein shall equal, respectively, the interest, principal and Sinking Fund Installment next coming due on the Bonds Outstanding; provided, however, no deposit need be made to the Principal Account or Term Bonds Redemption Account until a date one year preceding the due date of such principal amount or Sinking Fund Installment. (8) Utility Reserve Fund. The balance of any Gross Revenues remaining in said Revenue Fund shall be deposited in the Utility Reserve Fund and applied to the 45 payment, on or prior to each principal and interest payment date for the Bonds (in no event earlier than the 25th day of the month next preceding such payment date), into the Interest Account, the Principal Account and the Term Bonds Redemption Account when the moneys therein shall be insufficient to pay the principal of and interest on the Bonds coming due. Moneys not required to meet such a deficiency shall be deposited to the Water Connection Fees Fund and Wastewater Connection Fees Fund to make up any withdrawal from such Funds pursuant to Sections 4.07(A) and 4.08(A) hereof, respectively (to the extent required by such Sections), then to the Reserve Account to make up any deficiency therein, and thereafter to the Rebate Fund to the extent moneys are required to be deposited therein. Thereafter, moneys in the Utility Reserve Fund may be applied for any lawful purpose relating to the System, including, but not limited to, purchase or redemption of Bonds, payment of Subordinated Indebtedness, payment of other obligations incurred with respect to the System, deposit to the Rate Stabilization Fund and improvements, renewals and replacements to the System; provided, however, that none of such revenues shall ever be used for the purposes provided in this Section 4.06(B)(8) unless all payments required in Sections 4.06(B)(l) through 4.06(B)(6) hereof, including any deficiencies for prior payments, have been made in full to the date of such use. (C) Whenever moneys on deposit in the Sinking Fund are sufficient to fully pay all Outstanding Bonds in accordance with their terms (including principal or applicable Redemption Price and interest thereon), no further deposits to the Sinking Fund need be made. If on any payment date the Gross Revenues are insufficient to deposit the required amount in any of the funds or accounts or for any of the purposes provided above, the deficiency shall be made up on the subsequent payment dates. The Issuer, in its discretion, may use moneys in the Principal Account and the Interest Account to purchase or redeem Bonds coming due on the next principal payment date, provided such purchase or redemption does not adversely affect the Issuer's ability to pay the principal or interest coming due on such principal payment date on the Bonds not so purchased or redeemed. (D) In the event the Issuer shall issue a Series of Bonds secured by a Credit Facility, the Issuer may establish separate subaccounts in the Interest Account, the Principal Account and the Term Bonds Redemption Account to provide for payment of the principal of and interest on such Series; provided payment from the Pledged Funds of one Series of Bonds shall not have preference over payment of any other Series of Bonds. The Issuer may also deposit moneys in such subaccounts at such other times and in such other amounts from those provided in Section 4.06(B) as shall be necessary to pay the principal of and interest on such Bonds as the same shall become due, all as provided by the Supplemental Resolution authorizing such Bonds. In the case of Bonds secured by a Credit Facility, amounts on deposit in the Sinking Fund may be applied as provided in the applicable Supplemental Resolution to 46 C-25 reimburse the Credit Bank for amounts drawn under such Credit Facility to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on such Bonds or to pay the purchase price of any such Bonds which are tendered by the holders thereof for payment; provided such Credit Facility shall have no priority over Bondholders or an Insurer to amounts on deposit in the Sinking Fund. Other payments due to a Credit Bank in relation to obligations arising under its Credit Facility may be on parity with the Bonds as to source of and security for payment to the extent provided in the Supplemental Resolution relating thereto. SECTION 4.07. WATER CONNECTION FEES FUND. The Issuer shall deposit into the Water Connection Fees Fund all Water Connection Fees as received, together with moneys transferred to such Fund pursuant to Section 4.06(B)(8) and such Water Connection Fees shall be accumulated in the Water Connection Fees Fund and applied by the Issuer in the following manner and order of priority: (A) For the payments on or prior to each principal and interest payment date (in no event earlier than the 25th day of the month next preceding such payment date) into the Interest Account, the Principal Account and the Term Bonds Redemption Account, when the moneys therein are insufficient to pay the principal of and interest on the Bonds coming due, but only to the extent moneys transferred from the Utility Reserve Fund, the Renewal and Replacement Fund and the Rate Stabilization Fund for such purpose pursuant to Sections 4.06(B)(8), 4.06(B)(5) and 4.10, respectively, hereof, together with moneys available in the Reserve Account for such purpose pursuant to Section 4.06(B)( 4) hereof, shall be inadequate to fully provide for such insufficiency; provided moneys shall be transferred to the aforementioned Accounts from the Water Connection Fees Fund and the Wastewater Connection Fees Fund on a pro-rata basis or such other basis as the Issuer deems appropriate in relation to the amount of moneys in each Fund at the time of transfer. Any moneys transferred to the aforementioned Accounts described above shall be treated as an interfund loan and shall be repaid, together with reasonable interest thereon, from Gross Revenues as described in Section 4.06(8)(8) hereof on or prior to the date such amounts are needed for the purposes described in Sections 4.07(B) and (C) hereof, but in no event later than one year from the date of such transfer, unless the Issuer shall determine that such transfer constitutes a lawful use of such Water Connection Fees. (B) To the extent permitted by law, to pay or reimburse the capital cost of acquiring and/or constructing such improvements or additions to the water facilities of the System for which the Water Connection Fees were imposed in accordance with the requisitions for disbursement of moneys provided by the Issuer. (C) To be used for any other lawful purpose relating to the System. SECTION 4.08. WASTEWATER CONNECTION FEES FUND. The Issuer shall deposit into the Wastewater Connection Fees Fund all Wastewater Connection Fees as received, together with moneys transferred to such Fund pursuant to 47 Section 4.06(B)(8) hereof and such Wastewater Connection Fees shall be accumulated in the Wastewater Connection Fees Fund and applied by the Issuer in the following manner and order of priority: (A) For the payments on or prior to each principal and interest payment date (in no event earlier than the 25th day of the month next preceding such payment Date) into the Interest Account, the Principal Account and the Term Bonds Redemption Account, when the moneys therein are insufficient to pay the principal of and interest on the Bonds coming due, but only to the extent moneys transferred from the Utility Reserve Fund, the Renewal and Replacement Fund and the Rate Stabilization Fund for such purpose pursuant to Sections 4.06(B)(8), 4.06(B)(5) and 4.10, respectively, hereof, together with moneys available in the Reserve Account for such purpose pursuant to Section 4.06(B)( 4) hereof, shall be inadequate to fully provide for such insufficiency; provided moneys shall be transferred to the aforementioned Accounts from the Wastewater Connection Fees Fund and the Water Connection Fees Fund on a pro-rata basis or such other basis as the Issuer deems appropriate in relation to the amount of moneys in each Fund at the time of transfer. Any moneys transferred to the aforementioned Accounts described above shall be treated as an interfund loan and shall be repaid, together with reasonable interest thereon, from Gross Revenues as described in Section 4.06(B)(8) hereof on or prior to the date such amounts are needed for the purposes described in Sections 4.08(B) and (C) hereof, but in no event later than one year from the date of such transfer, unless the Issuer shall determine that such transfer constitutes a lawful use of such Wastewater Connection Fees. (B) To the extent permitted by law, to pay or reimburse the capital cost of acquiring and/or constructing such improvements or additions to the wastewater facilities of the System for which the Wastewater Connection Fees were imposed in accordance with the requisitions for disbursement of moneys provided by the Issuer. (C) To be used for any other lawful purpose relating to the System. SECTION 4.09. REBATE FUND. Amounts on deposit in the Rebate Fund shall be held in trust by the Issuer and used solely to make required rebates to the United States ( except to the extent the same may be transferred to the Revenue Fund) and the Bondholders shall have no right to have the same applied for debt service on the Bonds. For any Series of Bonds for which the rebate requirements of Section 148( f) of the Code are applicable, the Issuer agrees to undertake all actions required of it in its arbitrage certificate relating to such Series of Bonds, including, but not limited to: (A) making a determination in accordance with the Code of the amount required to be deposited in the Rebate Fund; (B) depositing the amount determined in clause (A) above into the Rebate Fund; 48 C-26 (C) paying on the dates and in the manner required by the Code to the United States Treasury from the Rebate Fund and any other legally available moneys of the Issuer such amounts as shall be required by the Code to be rebated to the United States Treasury; and (D) keeping such records of the determinations made pursuant to this Section 4.09 as shall be required by the Code, as well as evidence of the fair market value of any investments purchased with proceeds of the Bonds. The provisions of the above-described arbitrage certificates may be amended without the consent of any Holder, Credit Bank or Insurer from time to time as shall be necessary, in the opinion of Bond Counsel, to comply with the provisions of the Code. SECTION 4.10. RATE STABILIZATION FUND. The Issuer may transfer into the Rate Stabilization Fund such moneys which are on deposit in the Utility Reserve Fund as it deems appropriate. The Issuer may transfer such amount of moneys from the Rate Stabilization Fund to the Revenue Fund as it deems appropriate; provided, however, that on or prior to each principal and interest payment date for the Bonds (in no event earlier than the 25th day of the month next preceding such payment date), moneys in the Rate Stabilization Fund shall be applied for the payment into the Interest Account, the Principal Account and the Term Bonds Redemption Account when the moneys therein are insufficient to pay the principal of and interest on the Bonds coming due, but only to the extent moneys transferred from the Utility Reserve Fund and Renewal and Replacement Fund for such purposes pursuant to Sections 4.06(B)(8) and 4.06(B)(5) hereof, together with moneys available in the Reserve Account for such purpose pursuant to Section 4.06(B)(4) hereof, shall be inadequate to fully provide for such insufficiency.

Moneys on deposit in the Reserve Account shall be invested in Authorized Investments, maturing no later than ten years from the date of investment. All investments shall be valued at cost; provided, however, that the amounts on deposit in the Reserve Account shall be valued at the market price 49 thereof. Investments in the Reserve Account shall be valued by the Issuer on an annual basis as of April 1 of each year. Any and all income received from the investment of moneys in each separate account of the Revenue Fund, the Construction Fund, the Interest Account, the Principal Account, the Term Bonds Redemption Account, the Utility Reserve Fund, the Renewal and Replacement Fund (to the extent such income and other amounts in such Fund do not exceed the Renewal and Replacement Fund Requirement), the Water Connection Fees Fund, the Wastewater Connection Fees Fund, the Utility Reserve Fund, the Rate Stabilization Fund and the Reserve Account (to the extent such income and the other amounts in the Reserve Account does not exceed the Reserve Account Requirement), shall be retained in such respective Fund or Account. Any and all income received from the investment of moneys in the Renewal and Replacement Fund ( only to the extent such income and the other amounts in such Fund exceed the Renewal and Replacement Fund Requirement) and the Reserve Account (only to the extent such income and the other amounts in the Reserve Account exceeds the Reserve Account Requirement), shall be deposited upon receipt thereof in the Revenue Fund. Any and all income received from the investment of moneys in the Special Assessments Fund shall be deposited upon receipt thereof into the Interest Account. Nothing in this Resolution shall prevent any Authorized Investments acquired as investments of or security for funds held under this Resolution from being issued or held in book-entry form on the books of the Department of the Treasury of the United States. 50 C-27 ARTICLE V COVENANTS SECTION 5.01.

ANNUAL BUDGET. The Issuer shall annually prepare and adopt, prior to the beginning of each Fiscal Year, an Annual Budget in accordance with applicable law. No expenditure for Operating Expenses shall be made in any Fiscal Year in excess of the aggregate amount provided for Operating Expenses in the Annual Budget until the Governing Body shall have approved the increased expenditures by resolution or ordinance. If for any reason the Issuer shall not have adopted the Annual Budget before the first day of any Fiscal Year, other than the first Fiscal Year, the preliminary budget for such year, if it be approved by the Consulting Engineers or Rate Consultant, or otherwise the Annual Budget for the preceding Fiscal Year, shall be deemed to be in effect for such Fiscal Year until the Annual Budget for such Fiscal Year is adopted.

SECTION 5.04 RATES. The Issuer shall fix, establish, maintain and collect such rates, fees and charges for the product, services and facilities of the System, and revise the same from time to time, whenever necessary, so as always to provide in each Fiscal Year: 51 (A) Net Revenues and Connection Fees equal to at least 120% of the Annual Debt Service becoming due in such Fiscal Year; provided (B) such Net Revenues shall be adequate at all times to pay in each Fiscal Year at least 100% of (1) the Annual Debt Service becoming due in such Fiscal Year, (2) any amounts required by the terms hereof to be deposited in the Reserve Account or with any issuer of a Reserve Account Letter of Credit or Reserve Account Insurance Policy in such Fiscal Year to pay Policy Costs, and (3) any amounts required by the terms of Sections 4.07(A) and 4.08(A) hereof to be repaid to the Water Connection Fees Fund and Wastewater Connection Fees Fund in such Fiscal Year. Such rates, fees or other charges shall not be so reduced so as to be insufficient to provide adequate Net Revenues, Water Connection Fees and Wastewater Connection Fees for the purposes provided therefor by this Resolution. If, in any Fiscal Year, the Issuer shall fail to comply with the requirements contained in this Section 5.04, it shall promptly cause the Rate Consultant to review its rates, fees, charges, income, Gross Revenues, Operating Expenses, Connection Fees and methods of operation and to make written recommendations as to the methods by which the Issuer may seek to comply with the requirements set forth in this Section 5.04. The Issuer shall forthwith commence to implement such recommendations to the extent required so as to cause it to thereafter comply with said requirements. So long as the Issuer implements such recommendations within 120 days of the receipt thereof, the City's failure to comply with this Section 5.04 shall not be considered an Event of Default under Section 7 .0 I hereof. SECTION 5.05. BOOKS AND RECORDS. The Issuer shall keep books, records and accounts of the revenues and operations of the System, which shall be kept separate and apart from all other books, records and accounts of the Issuer, and the Holders of any Bonds Outstanding or the duly authorized representatives thereof shall have the right at all reasonable times to inspect all books, records and accounts of the Issuer relating thereto.

NO MORTGAGE OR SALE OF THE SYSTEM. The Issuer irrevocably covenants, binds and obligates itself not to sell, lease, encumber or in any manner dispose of the System as a whole or any substantial part thereof (except as provided below) until all of the Bonds and all interest thereon shall have been paid in full or provision for payment has been made in accordance with Section 9.0 l hereof. The foregoing provision notwithstanding, the Issuer shall have and hereby reserves the right to sell, lease or otherwise dispose of any of the property comprising a part of the System in the following manner, if any one of the following conditions exist: (A) such property is not necessary for the operation of the System, (B) such property is not useful in the operation of the System, (C) such property is not profitable in the operation of the System, or (D) in the case of a lease of such property, such lease will be advantageous to the System and will not materially adversely affect the security for the Bondholders. Prior to any such sale, lease or other disposition of said property: ( l) if the amount to be received therefor is not in excess of five percent ( 5%) of the market value of the gross plant of the System, an Authorized Issuer Officer shall make a finding in writing determining that one or more of the conditions for sale, lease or disposition of property provided for in the second paragraph of this Section 5.07 have been met; or (2) if the amount to be received from such sale, lease or other disposition of said property shall be in excess of five percent ( 5%) of the market value of the gross plant of the System, (a) an Authorized Issuer Officer and the Consulting Engineers shall each first make a finding in writing determining that one or more of the conditions for sale, lease or other disposition of property provided for in the second paragraph of this Section 5.07 have been met, (b) the Governing Body shall, by resolution, duly adopt, approve and concur in the finding of the Authorized Issuer Officer and the Consulting Engineers, and ( c) the Issuer shall obtain an opinion of Bond Counsel to the effect that such sale, lease or other disposition is not in violation of the Act and will not adversely affect the federal tax exempt status of interest on the Bonds ( other than Taxable Bonds) or shall not otherwise affect the status of any Outstanding Bonds issued as Federal Subsidy Bonds or the Issuer's receipt of Federal Subsidy Payments with respect to any Outstanding Federal Subsidy Bonds. Except as otherwise required under applicable prov1s1ons of the Code, the proceeds from any such sale or other disposition shall be deposited, first, into the Renewal and Replacement Fund to the extent necessary to make the amount therein equal to the Renewal and Replacement Fund Requirement, and, second, into the Utility Reserve Fund. Proceeds from any lease of assets of the System shall constitute Gross Revenues and shall be deposited in the Revenue Fund. The transfer of the System as a whole from the control of the Governing Body to some other board or authority which may hereafter be created for the purpose of owning, operating or controlling the System and which constitutes a governmental entity, interest 53 on obligations issued by which are excluded from gross income for purposes of Federal income taxation ( other than obligations similar to Taxable Bonds or Federal Subsidy Bonds), shall not be deemed prohibited by this Section 5.07 and such successor board or authority shall fall within the definition of "Issuer" in Section 1.01 hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.07, the Issuer shall have the authority to sell for fair and reasonable consideration any land comprising a part of the System which is no longer necessary or useful in the operation of the System and the proceeds derived from the sale of such land shall be disposed of in accordance with the provisions of the fourth paragraph of this Section 5.07. The Issuer may make contracts or grant licenses for the operation of, or grant easements or other rights with respect to, any part of the System if such contract, license, easement or right does not, in the opinion of the Consulting Engineers, as evidenced by a certificate to that effect filed with the Issuer, impede or restrict the operation by the Issuer of the System, but any payments to the Issuer under or in connection with any such contract, license, easement or right in respect of the System or any part thereof shall constitute Gross Revenues and shall be deposited in the Revenue Fund. SECTION 5.08. INSURANCE. The Issuer will carry such insurance as is ordinarily carried by private or public entities owning and operating utilities similar to the System with a reputable insurance carrier or carriers, in such amounts as the Issuer shall determine to be sufficient and such other insurance against loss or damage by fire, explosion, hurricane, tornado or other hazards and risks, and said property loss or damage insurance shall at all times be in an amount or amounts equal to the fair appraisal value of the buildings, properties, furniture, fixtures and equipment of the System, or such other amount or amounts as the Consulting Engineers or an insurance consultant who has a favorable reputation and experience and is qualified to survey risks and to recommend insurance coverage for Persons engaged in operations similar to the System, shall recommend or approve as sufficient. The Issuer may establish certain levels of insurance for which the Issuer may self- insure. Such levels of insurance shall be in amounts as recommended by an insurance consultant who has a favorable reputation and experience and is qualified to survey risks and to recommend insurance coverage for Persons engaged in operations similar to the System. The proceeds from property loss and casualty insurance shall be deposited in the Renewal and Replacement Fund and, together with other available funds of the Issuer, shall be used to repair or replace the damaged portion of the System; provided, however, if the Issuer makes a determination in accordance with Section 5.07 hereof that such portion of the System is no longer necessary or useful in the operation of the System, such proceeds shall (1) if such proceeds equal or exceed $500,000, (a) be applied to the redemption or purchase of Bonds or (b) be deposited in irrevocable trust for the payment 54 C-29 of Bonds in the manner set forth in Section 9.01, provided the Issuer has received an opinion of Bond Counsel to the effect that such deposit shall not adversely affect the exclusion, if any, from gross income of interest on the Outstanding Bonds for purposes of federal income taxation (other than Taxable Bonds) and will not otherwise affect the status of any Outstanding Bonds issued as Federal Subsidy Bonds or the Issuer's receipt of Federal Subsidy Payments with respect to any Outstanding Federal Subsidy Bonds, or (2) if such proceeds are less than $500,000, be deposited in the Revenue Fund. SECTION 5.09. NO FREE SERVICE. The Issuer will not render or cause to be rendered any free services of any nature by its System, nor will any preferential rates be established for users of the same class; provided, however, the foregoing clause shall not be construed to prevent the Issuer from establishing various classes of users based on any factors deemed necessary or desirable by the Issuer. Different rates may be established for different classes. Whenever the Issuer, including its departments, agencies and instrumentalities, shall avail itself of the product, facilities or services provided by the System, or any part thereof, the same rates, fees or charges applicable to other customers receiving like services under similar circumstances shall be charged to the Issuer and any such department, agency or instrumentality. Such charges shall be paid as they accrue, and the Issuer shall transfer from its general funds to the Revenue Fund sufficient sums to pay such charges. The revenues so received shall be deemed to be Gross Revenues derived from the operation of the System, and shall be deposited and accounted for in the same manner as other Gross Revenues derived from such operation of the System. SECTION 5.10. NO IMPAIRMENT OF RIGHTS; NO COMPETING SYSTEMS. (A) The Issuer will not enter into any contract or contracts, nor take any action, the results of which might impair the rights of the Holders of the Bonds. (B) To the extent permitted by law, the Issuer will not hereafter grant, or cause, consent to or allow the granting of any franchise or permit to any Person for the operation of any competing water or wastewater service facilities or the furnishing of services similar to those provided by the System within the jurisdiction of the Issuer if such operations or services will have a material adverse effect on the Issuer's ability to meet its obligations hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuer reserves the right to permit the ownership and operation of water or wastewater service facilities or both by itself or by others in any territory which is not in any service area now or hereafter served by the System SECTION 5.11. COMPULSORY CONNECTIONS. In order better to secure the prompt payment of principal and interest on the Bonds, as well as for the purpose of protecting the health and welfare of the inhabitants of the Issuer, and acting under authority of the general laws of Florida, the Issuer, to the extent permitted by law, will require, where service by the System is available, the owner of every lot or parcel of land within the jurisdiction of the Issuer to connect to the facilities of the System. The 55 Issuer may establish reasonable rules and regulations regarding such connections and may provide for reasonable exemptions from such connection policy. SECTION 5.12. ENFORCEMENT OF CHARGES. The Issuer shall compel the prompt payment of rates, fees and charges imposed in connection with the System, and to that end will vigorously enforce all of the provisions of any ordinance or resolution of the Issuer having to do with System connections and charges, and all of the rights and remedies permitted the Issuer under law, including the requirement for the making of a reasonable deposit by each user, the requirement for lawful disconnection of services for all premises delinquent in the payment of any duly invoiced bill, and the securing of injunction against the disposition of sewage or industrial waste into the wastewater facilities of the System by any premises delinquent in the payment of such charges. SECTION 5.13. UNIT BILLS. In every instance in which a building or structure on a lot is connected to the wastewater facilities of the System, which building or structure is also connected to the water facilities of the System and receives water therefrom, the Issuer shall submit to the owner or occupant of such lot a single bill for all water and wastewater service and shall refuse to accept payment for any of the charge relating to a particular service of the System without payment of the charges for all other services of the System. SECTION 5.14. COVENANTS WITH CREDIT BANKS AND INSURERS. The Issuer may make such covenants as it may in its sole discretion determine to be appropriate with any Insurer, Credit Bank or other financial institution that shall agree to insure or to provide for Bonds of any one or more Series credit or liquidity support that shall enhance the security or the value of such Bonds. Such covenants may be set forth in the applicable Supplemental Resolution or in an agreement approved by Supplemental Resolution and shall be binding on the Issuer, the Registrar, the Paying Agent and all the Holders of Bonds the same as if such covenants were set forth in full in this Resolution and shall not diminish the security for any of the Bonds Outstanding. SECTION 5.15. COLLECTION OF SPECIAL ASSESSMENTS. To the extent the Gross Revenues include any Special Assessments Proceeds, the Issuer shall proceed diligently to perform legally and effectively all steps required in the imposition and collection of the Special Assessments. The Issuer shall diligently proceed to collect such Special Assessments and shall exercise all legally available remedies now or hereafter available under State law to enforce such collections. SECTION 5.16. RE-ASSESSMENTS. To the extent the Gross Revenues include any Special Assessments Proceeds, if any Special Assessment shall be either in whole or in part annulled, vacated or set aside by the judgment of any court, or if the Governing Body shall be satisfied that any such Special Assessment is so irregular or 56 C-30 defective that the same cannot be enforced or collected, or if the Governing Body shall have omitted to make such Special Assessment when it might have done so, the Governing Body shall take all necessary steps to cause a new Special Assessment to be made for the whole or any part of said improvement or against any property benefitted by said improvement, and in case such second Special Assessment shall be annulled, said Governing Body shall obtain and make other Special Assessments until a valid Special Assessment shall be made. SECTION 5.17. COLLECTION OF CONNECTION FEES. The Issuer shall proceed diligently to perform legally and effectively all steps required in the collection of the Connection Fees, if and only to the extent such Connection Fees are levied by the Issuer. Upon the due date of any such Connection Fees, the Issuer shall diligently proceed to collect the same and shall exercise all legally available remedies to enforce such collections now or hereafter available under State law. Notwithstanding any provision of this Section 5.17 to the contrary, the Issuer may waive the levy or collection of a Connection Fee provided such waiver is in accordance with applicable law. SECTION 5.18. CONSUL TING ENGINEERS. The Issuer shall employ Consulting Engineers, whose duties shall be to make any certificates and perform any other acts required or permitted of the Consulting Engineers under this Resolution, and also to review the construction and operation of the System, to make an inspection of the System at least once every three years, and to submit to the Issuer a report with recommendations as to the proper maintenance, repair and operation of the System, including recommendations for expansion and additions to the System to meet anticipated service demands, and an estimate of the amount of money necessary for such purposes. The Consulting Engineers shall, from time to time, recommend the amount of the Renewal and Replacement Fund Requirement. Copies of such reports, recommendations and estimates made as hereinabove provided shall be filed with the Issuer for inspection by Bondholders, if such inspection is requested. SECTION 5.19. FEDERAL INCOME TAXATION COVENANTS; TAXABLE BONDS. The Issuer covenants with the Holders of each Series of Bonds (other than Taxable Bonds and Federal Subsidy Bonds) that it shall not use the proceeds of such Series of Bonds in any manner which would cause the interest on such Series of Bonds to be or become included in gross income for purposes of federal income taxation. The Issuer covenants with the Holders of each Series of Bonds ( other than Taxable Bonds) that neither the Issuer nor any Person under its control or direction will make any use of the proceeds of such Series of Bonds ( or amounts deemed to be proceeds under the Code) in any manner which would cause such Series of Bonds to be "arbitrage bonds" within the meaning of the Code and neither the Issuer nor any other Person shall do any act or fail to do any act which would cause the interest on any Series of Bonds ( other than Taxable Bonds and Federal Subsidy Bonds) to become subject to inclusion within gross income for purposes of federal income taxation. 57 The Issuer hereby covenants with the Holders of each Series of Bonds ( other than Taxable Bonds and Federal Subsidy Bonds) that it will comply with all provisions of the Code necessary to maintain the exclusion from gross income of interest on the Bonds for purposes of federal income taxation, including, in particular, the payment of any amount required to be rebated to the U.S. Treasury pursuant to the Code. The Issuer may, if it so elects, issue one or more Series of Taxable Bonds the interest on which is ( or may be) includable in the gross income of the Holder thereof for federal income taxation purposes, so long as each Bond of such Series states in the body thereof that interest payable thereon is ( or may be) subject to federal income taxation and provided that the issuance thereof will not cause interest on any other Bonds theretofore issued hereunder to be or become subject to federal income taxation. The other covenants set forth in this Section 5.19 shall not apply to any Taxable Bonds. SECTION 5.20. COVENANTS RELATING TO FEDERAL SUBSIDY BONDS. The Issuer covenants with respect to any Bonds issued as Federal Subsidy Bonds that it will: (A) File, on a timely basis, Internal Revenue Service Form 8038-CP or such other form or forms required by the United States Department of Treasury to receive Federal Subsidy Payments in connection with any Bonds issued as Federal Subsidy Bonds. (B) Deposit promptly the Federal Subsidy Payments received from the United States Department of Treasury, if any, to the Interest Account of the Sinking Fund to pay interest on the Federal Subsidy Bonds. (C) Comply with all provisions of the Code, all Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, and any applicable notice, ruling or other formal interpretation issued by the United States Department of Treasury or the Internal Revenue Service, in order for the Bonds issued as Federal Subsidy Bonds to be and to remain Federal Subsidy Bonds. (D) Not take any action, or fail to take any action, if any such action or failure to take such action would adversely affect the Issuer's receipt of Federal Subsidy Payments or the status of the Bonds issued as Federal Subsidy Bonds, or any portion thereof, as Federal Subsidy Bonds. The Issuer covenants that it will not directly or indirectly use or permit the use of any proceeds of Bonds issued as Federal Subsidy Bonds or any other of its funds or take or omit to take any action that would cause the Bonds issued as Federal Subsidy Bonds to be or become "arbitrage bonds" within the meaning of Section 148(a) or to fail to meet any other applicable requirements of the Code. 58 C-31 ARTICLE VI SUBORDINATED INDEBTEDNESS AND ADDITIONAL BONDS SECTION 6.01. SUBORDINATED INDEBTEDNESS. The Issuer will not issue any other obligations, except under the conditions and in the manner provided herein, payable from the Pledged Funds or the Gross Revenues or voluntarily create or cause to be created any debt, lien, pledge, assignment, encumbrance or other charge having priority to or being on a parity with the lien thereon in favor of the Bonds and the interest thereon. The Issuer may at any time or from time to time issue evidences of indebtedness payable in whole or in part out of Pledged Funds and which may be secured by a pledge of Pledged Funds; provided, however, that such pledge shall be, and shall be expressed to be, subordinated in all respects to the pledge of the Pledged Funds created by this Resolution and provided further that the issuance of such Subordinated Indebtedness shall be subject to any provisions contained in financing documents securing outstanding Subordinated Indebtedness to the extent such provisions impact on the ability of the Issuer to issue other Subordinated Indebtedness. The Issuer shall have the right to covenant with the holders from time to time of any Subordinated Indebtedness to add to the conditions, limitations and restrictions under which any Additional Bonds may be issued under the provisions of Section 6.02 hereof. The Issuer agrees to pay promptly any Subordinated Indebtedness as the same shall become due. SECTION 6.02. ISSUANCE OF ADDITIONAL BONDS. No Additional Bonds, payable on parity with the Bonds then Outstanding pursuant to this Resolution, shall be issued except upon the conditions and in the manner herein provided. The Issuer may issue one or more Series of Additional Bonds for any one or more of the following purposes: (i) financing or refinancing the Cost of a Project, or the completion thereof, or (ii) refunding any or all Outstanding Bonds, any Subordinated Indebtedness of the Issuer, or any other indebtedness of the Issuer that it may lawfully refund with proceeds of Bonds. No such Additional Bonds shall be issued unless the following conditions are complied with: (A) Except in the case of Additional Bonds issued for the purpose of refunding Outstanding Bonds, the Issuer shall certify that it is current in all deposits into the various funds and accounts established hereby and all payments theretofore required to have been deposited or made by it under the provisions of this Resolution, including all due and payable Policy Costs have been deposited or made, and the Issuer is in compliance with the covenants and agreements of this Resolution. (B) An independent certified public accountant or the Rate Consultant shall certify to the Issuer that the amount of the Net Revenues (excluding Investment Earnings with respect to the Construction Fund) and Connection Fees received by the Issuer during the immediately preceding Fiscal Year or any 12 consecutive months selected by the 59 Issuer of the 24 months immediately preceding the issuance of said Additional Bonds, adjusted as hereinafter provided, were equal to at least 120% of the Maximum Annual Debt Service of the Outstanding Bonds and the Additional Bonds then proposed to be issued, provided the amount of the Net Revenues, adjusted as hereinafter provided, received by the Issuer during such 12-month period, will be equal to (1) at least 100% of the Maximum Annual Debt Service of the Outstanding Bonds and the Additional Bonds then proposed to be issued, and (2) 100% of ( a) any amounts required by the terms hereof to be deposited in the Reserve Account or with any issuer of a Reserve Account Letter of Credit or Reserve Account Insurance Policy to pay any Policy Costs and (b) any amounts required by the terms of Sections 4.07(A) and 4.08(A) hereof to be repaid to the Water Connection Fees Fund and Wastewater Connection Fees Fund, in each case during such 12-month period. (C) For the purpose of determining the Debt Service under this Section 6.02, the interest rate on Additional Bonds that are proposed to be issued as Variable Rate Bonds shall be deemed to be the Bond Buyer Revenue Bond Index most recently published prior to the sale of such Additional Bonds. (D) For the purpose of determining the Debt Service under this Section 6.02, the interest rate on Outstanding Variable Rate Bonds (not subject to a Qualified Hedge Agreement) shall be deemed to be (1) if such Variable Rate Bonds have been Outstanding for at least 12 months prior to the date of sale of such Additional Bonds, the highest of (a) the actual rate of interest borne by such Variable Rate Bonds on the date of sale, and (b) the average interest rate borne by such Variable Rate Bonds during the 12- month period preceding the date of sale, or (2) if such Variable Rate Bonds have not been Outstanding for at least 12 months prior to the date of sale of such Additional Bonds, the higher of (a) the actual rate of interest borne by the Variable Rate Bonds on the date of sale, and (b) the Bond Buyer Revenue Bond Index most recently published prior to the sale of such Additional Bonds. (E) For the purpose of this Section 6.02, the phrase "immediately preceding Fiscal Year or any 12 consecutive months selected by the Issuer of the 24 months immediately preceding the issuance of said Additional Bonds" shall be sometimes referred to as "12 consecutive months" or the "12-month period." (F) The Net Revenues and the Connection Fees calculated pursuant to the foregoing Section 6.02(B) may be adjusted upon the written advice of the Rate Consultant, at the option of the Issuer, as follows: ( 1) If the Issuer, prior to the issuance of the proposed Additional Bonds, shall have increased the rates, fees or other charges for the product, services or facilities of the System, the Net Revenues and the Connection Fees for the 12 consecutive months shall be adjusted to show the Net Revenues and the Connection Fees which would have been derived from the System in such 12 consecutive months as if such increased rates, fees or 60 C-32 other charges for the product, services or facilities of the System had been in effect during all of such 12 consecutive months. (2) If the Issuer shall have acquired or has contracted to acquire any privately or publicly owned existing utility system that will become part of the System, the cost of which shall be paid from all or part of the proceeds of the issuance of the proposed Additional Bonds, then the Net Revenues derived from the System during the 12 consecutive months shall be increased by adding to the Net Revenues for said 12 consecutive months the Net Revenues which would have been derived from said existing utility system as if such existing utility system had been a part of the System during such 12 consecutive months. For the purposes of this paragraph, the Net Revenues derived from said existing utility system during such 12 consecutive months shall be adjusted to determine such Net Revenues by deducting the cost of operation and maintenance of said existing utility system from the gross revenues of said system. Such Net Revenues shall take into account any increase in rates imposed on customers of such utility system on or prior to the acquisition thereof by the Issuer. (3) If the Issuer, in connection with the issuance of Additional Bonds, shall enter into a contract (with a duration not less than the final maturity of such Additional Bonds) with any public or private entity whereby the Issuer agrees to furnish services in connection with any utility system, then the Net Revenues of the System during the 12 consecutive months shall be increased by the least amount which said public or private entity shall guarantee to pay in any one year for the furnishing of said services by the Issuer, after deducting therefrom the proportion of operating expenses and repair, renewal and replacement cost attributable in such year to such services. ( 4) If the Issuer covenants to levy Special Assessments against property to be benefited by the improvements, the cost of which shall be paid from the proceeds of the proposed Additional Bonds and the City has included the corresponding Special Assessment Proceeds within the definition of Gross Revenues pursuant to Supplemental Resolution, then the Special Assessments Proceeds derived from the System during the 12 consecutive months shall be increased by an amount equal to the least amount which the Rate Consultant estimates will be received in any one year subsequent to completion of such improvements from the levy of said Special Assessments, said amount to be the total received, assuming no prepayments, from the installment payments on the Special Assessments plus the interest paid on the unpaid portion of the Special Assessments. The estimate of the Rate Consultant shall be based upon the preliminary assessment roll filed with the Issuer prior to the construction of such improvements. (5) In the event the Issuer shall be constructing or acqumng additions, extensions or improvements to the System from the proceeds of such Additional Bonds and shall have established fees, rates or charges to be charged and collected from users of such facilities when service is rendered, such Net Revenues and Connection Fees for the 12 consecutive months may be adjusted by adding thereto 100% of the Net Revenues and 61 Connection Fees estimated by the Rate Consultant to be derived during the first 12 months of operation after completion of the construction or acquisition of said additions, extensions and improvements from the customers of the facilities to be :financed by Additional Bonds together with other funds on hand or lawfully obtained for such purpose; provided such customers must represent existing occupied structures that will be added to the System upon completion of the proposed additions, extensions or improvements. (6) If the Issuer shall add new customers subsequent to the commencement of the 12 consecutive months, the Rate Consultant may adjust the Net Revenues and Connection Fees to reflect the Net Revenues and Connection Fees that would have been received by the Issuer if such customers had been in place for the entire 12 consecutive months. (7) The Net Revenues and Connection Fees shall be adjusted for any period the System or any portion thereof was not owned by the Issuer to reflect government ownership of the System or such portion. ( G) Additional Bonds shall be deemed to have been issued pursuant to this Resolution the same as the Outstanding Bonds, and all of the other covenants and other provisions of this Resolution ( except as to details of such Additional Bonds inconsistent therewith) shall be for the equal benefit, protection and security of the Holders of all Bonds issued pursuant to this Resolution. Except as provided in Sections 4.02 and 4.06 hereof, all Bonds, regardless of the time or times of their issuance, shall rank equally with respect to their lien on the Pledged Funds and their sources and security for payment therefrom without preference of any Bonds over any other. (H) In the event any Additional Bonds are issued for the purpose of refunding any Bonds then Outstanding, the conditions of Section 6.02(B) shall not apply, provided that the issuance of such Additional Bonds shall result in a reduction of the aggregate debt service. The conditions of Section 6.02(B) shall apply to Additional Bonds issued to refund Subordinated Indebtedness and to Additional Bonds issued for refunding purposes which cannot meet the conditions of this paragraph. SECTION 6.03. BOND ANTICIPATION NOTES. The Issuer may issue notes in anticipation of the issuance of Bonds which shall have such terms and details and be secured in such manner, not inconsistent with this Resolution, as shall be provided by Supplemental Resolution of the Issuer. SECTION 6.04. ACCESSION OF SUBORDINATED INDEBTEDNESS TO PARITY STATUS WITH BONDS. The Issuer may provide for the accession of Subordinated Indebtedness to the status of complete parity with the Bonds, if (A) the Issuer shall meet all the requirements imposed upon the issuance of Additional Bonds by Sections 6.02(A) and (B) hereof, assuming for purposes of said requirements, that such 62 C-33 Subordinated Indebtedness shall be Additional Bonds, (B) and the facilities financed or refinanced by such Subordinated Indebtedness shall be, or become part of, the System. If the aforementioned conditions are satisfied, the Subordinated Indebtedness shall be deemed to have been issued pursuant to this Resolution the same as the Outstanding Bonds, and such Subordinated Indebtedness shall be considered Bonds for all purposes provided in this Resolution.

The following events shall each constitute an "Event of Default": (A) Default shall be made in the payment of the principal of, Sinking Fund Installment, redemption premium or interest on any Bond when due. In determining whether a payment default has occurred, no effect shall be given to payment made under a Bond Insurance Policy. (B) There shall occur the dissolution or liquidation of the Issuer, or the filing by the Issuer of a voluntary petition in bankruptcy, or the commission by the Issuer of any act of bankruptcy, or adjudication of the Issuer as a bankrupt, or assignment by the Issuer for the benefit of its creditors, or appointment of a receiver for the Issuer, or the entry by the Issuer into an agreement of composition with its creditors, or the approval by a court of competent jurisdiction of a petition applicable to the Issuer in any proceeding for its reorganization instituted under the provisions of the Federal Bankruptcy Act, as amended, or under any similar act in any jurisdiction which may now be in effect or hereafter enacted. ( C) The Issuer shall default in the due and punctual performance of any other of the covenants, conditions, agreements and provisions contained in the Bonds or in this Resolution on the part of the Issuer to be performed, and such default shall continue for a period of 90 days after written notice of such default shall have been received from the Holders of not less than 25% of the aggregate principal amount of Bonds Outstanding. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuer shall not be deemed to be in default hereunder if such default can be cured within a reasonable period of time and if the Issuer in good faith institutes appropriate curative action and diligently pursues such action until default has been corrected. SECTION 7.02. REMEDIES. Any Holder of Bonds issued under the provisions of this Resolution or any trustee or receiver acting for such Bondholders may either at law or in equity, by suit, action, mandamus or other proceedings in any court of competent jurisdiction, protect and enforce any and all rights under the Laws of the State of Florida, or granted and contained in this Resolution, and may enforce and compel the performance of all duties required by this Resolution or by any applicable statutes to be performed by the Issuer or by any officer thereof; provided, however, that no Holder, trustee or receiver shall have the right to declare the Bonds immediately due and payable without the consent of any affected Insurers except to the extent the acceleration of any Variable Rate Bonds secured by a Credit Facility is provided for in a Supplemental 64 C-34 Resolution or other documentation relating to such Credit Facility, the provisions of which are approved by the Insurers. The Holder or Holders of Bonds in an aggregate principal amount of not less than 25% of the Bonds then Outstanding may by a duly executed certificate in writing appoint a trustee for Holders of Bonds issued pursuant to this Resolution with authority to represent such Bondholders in any legal proceedings for the enforcement and protection of the rights of such Bondholders and such certificate shall be executed by such Bondholders or their duly authorized attorneys or representatives, and shall be filed in the office of the City Clerk. Notice of such appointment, together with evidence of the requisite signatures of the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of Bonds Outstanding and the trust instrument under which the trustee shall have agreed to serve shall be filed with the Issuer and the trustee and notice of such appointment shall be given to all Holders of Bonds in the same manner as notices of redemption are given hereunder. After the appointment of the first trustee hereunder, no further trustees may be appointed; however, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of all the Bonds then Outstanding may remove the trustee initially appointed and appoint a successor and subsequent successors at any time. SECTION 7.03. DIRECTIONS TO TRUSTEE AS TO REMEDIAL PROCEEDINGS. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Bonds then Outstanding ( or any Insurer insuring any then Outstanding Bonds) have the right, by an instrument or concurrent instruments in writing executed and delivered to the trustee, to direct the method and place of conducting all remedial proceedings to be taken by the trustee hereunder with respect to the Series of Bonds owned by such Holders or insured by such Insurer, provided that such direction shall not be otherwise than in accordance with law or the provisions hereof, and that the trustee shall have the right to decline to follow any direction which in the opinion of the trustee would be unjustly prejudicial to Holders of Bonds not parties to such direction. SECTION 7.04. REMEDIES CUMULATIVE. No remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Bondholders is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy or remedies, and each and every such remedy shall be cumulative, and shall be in addition to every other remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute. SECTION 7.05. WAIVER OF DEFAULT. No delay or omission of any Bondholder to exercise any right or power accruing upon any default shall impair any such right or power or shall be construed to be a waiver of any such default, or an acquiescence therein; and every power and remedy given by Section 7.02 to the Bondholders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient. 65 SECTION 7.06. APPLICATION OF MONEYS AFTER DEFAULT. If an Event of Default shall happen and shall not have been remedied, the Issuer or a trustee or receiver appointed for the purpose shall apply all Pledged Funds ( except as for amounts in the subaccounts of the Reserve Account or the Prior Reserve Accounts which shall be applied to the payment of the Series of Bonds for which they were established) as follows and in the following order: A. To the payment of the reasonable and proper charges, expenses and liabilities of the trustee or receiver and Registrar hereunder; B. To the payment of the amounts required for reasonable and necessary Operating Expenses, and for the reasonable renewals, repairs and replacements of the System necessary to prevent loss of Gross Revenues, as certified by the Consulting Engineer; C. To the payment of the interest (including Hedge Payments) and principal or Redemption Price, if applicable, then due on the Bonds, as follows: (1) Unless the principal of all the Bonds shall have become due and payable, all such moneys shall be applied: FIRST: to the payment to the Persons entitled thereto of all installments of interest (including Hedge Payments) then due, in the order of the maturity of such installments, and, if the amount available shall not be sufficient to pay in full any particular installment, then to the payment ratably, according to the amounts due on such installment, to the Persons entitled thereto, without any discrimination or preference; SECOND: to the payment to the Persons entitled thereto of the unpaid principal of any of the Bonds which shall have become due at maturity or upon mandatory redemption prior to maturity ( other than Bonds called for redemption for the payment of which moneys are held pursuant to the provisions of Section 9.01 of this Resolution), in the order of their due dates, with any accrued and unpaid interest upon such Bonds from the respective dates upon which they became due, and, if the amount available shall not be sufficient to pay in full Bonds due on any particular date, together with any accrued and unpaid interest, then to the payment first of such interest, ratably according to the amount of such interest due on such date, and then to the payment of such principal, ratably according to the amount of such principal due on such date, to the Persons entitled thereto without any discrimination or preference; and 66 C-35 THIRD: to the payment of the Redemption Price of any Bonds called for optional redemption pursuant to the provisions of this Resolution plus any accrued and unpaid interest. (2) If the principal of all the Bonds shall have become due and payable, all such moneys shall be applied to the payment of the principal and interest (including Hedge Payments) then due and unpaid upon the Bonds, with interest thereon as aforesaid, without preference or priority of principal over interest or of interest over principal, or of any installment of interest over any other installment of interest, or of any Bond over any other Bond, ratably, according to the amounts due respectively for principal and interest, to the Persons entitled thereto without any discrimination or preference. D. To the payment of all amounts owed to the Insurers and Credit Banks not covered by A, B or C above and all amounts owed to Counterparties not covered by A, B or C above on a pro rata basis. SECTION 7.07. CONTROL BY INSURER. To the extent an Insurer makes any payment of principal of or interest on Bonds in accordance with its Bond Insurance Policy, such Insurer shall become subrogated to the rights of the recipients of such payments in accordance with the terms of its Bond Insurance Policy. Upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, an Insurer of a Series of Bonds, if such Insurer shall not be in payment default under its Bond Insurance Policy, shall be deemed to be the sole owner of such Bonds for purposes of (A) directing and controlling the enforcement of all rights and remedies with respect to such Series of Bonds, including any waiver of an Event of Default and removal of any trustee, and (B) exercising any voting right or privilege or giving any consent or direction or taking any other action that the Holders of such Bonds are entitled to take pursuant to this Article VII hereof. No provision expressly recognizing or granting rights in or to an Insurer shall be modified without the consent of such Insurer. An Insurer's rights under this Section 7 .07 shall be suspended during any period in which such Insurer is in default in its payment obligations under its Bond Insurance Policy ( except to the extent of amounts previously paid by such Insurer and due and owing to such Insurer) and shall be of no force or effect if its Bond Insurance Policy is no longer in effect or if the Insurer asserts that its Bond Insurance Policy is not in effect or if the Insurer waives such rights in writing. The rights granted to an Insurer under this Section 7 .07 are granted in consideration of such Insurer issuing its Bond Insurance Policy. The Issuer shall provide each Insurer immediate notice of any Event of Default described in Section 7.0l(A) hereof and notice of any other Event of Default occurring hereunder within 30 days of the occurrence thereof. Each Insurer of any Bonds hereunder shall be considered a third-party beneficiary to the Resolution with respect to such Bonds. 67 ARTICLE VIII SUPPLEMENTAL RESOLUTIONS SECTION 8.01. SUPPLEMENT AL RESOLUTION WITHOUT BONDHOLDERS' CONSENT. The Issuer, from time to time and at any time, may adopt such Supplemental Resolutions without the consent of the Bondholders or the Insurers or the Credit Banks (which Supplemental Resolution shall thereafter form a part hereof) for any of the following purposes: (A) To cure any ambiguity or formal defect or omission or to correct any inconsistent provisions in this Resolution or to clarify any matters or questions arising hereunder.

(F) To authorize Projects or to change or modify the description of any Project. (G) To specify and determine matters necessary or desirable for the issuance of Variable Rate Bonds, Federal Subsidy Bonds or Capital Appreciation Bonds.

Subject to the terms and provisions 68 C-36 contained in this Section 8.02 and Sections 8.01 and 8.03 hereof, the Holder or Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Bonds then Outstanding shall have the right, from time to time, anything contained in this Resolution to the contrary notwithstanding, to consent to and approve the adoption of such Supplemental Resolutions hereto as shall be deemed necessary or desirable by the Issuer for the purpose of supplementing, modifying, altering, amending, adding to or rescinding, in any particular, any of the terms or provisions contained in this Resolution; provided, however, that if such modification or amendment will, by its terms, not take effect so long as any Bonds of any specified Series or maturity remain Outstanding, the consent of the Holders of such Bonds shall not be required and such Bonds shall not be deemed to be Outstanding for the purpose of any calculation of Outstanding Bonds under this Section 8.02. Any Supplemental Resolution which is adopted in accordance with the provisions of this Section 8.02 shall also require the written consent of the Insurer of any Bonds which are Outstanding at the time such Supplemental Resolution shall take effect if such Insurer is not in payment default under its Bond Insurance Policy. No Supplemental Resolution may be approved or adopted which shall permit or require, without the consent of all affected Bondholders, (A) an extension of the maturity of the principal of or the payment of the interest on any Bond issued hereunder, (B) reduction in the principal amount of any Bond or the Redemption Price or the rate of interest thereon, (C) the creation of a lien upon or a pledge of the Pledged Funds other than the lien and pledge created by this Resolution or except as otherwise permitted or provided hereby which materially adversely affects any Bondholders, (D) a preference or priority of any Bond or Bonds over any other Bond or Bonds ( except as to the establishment of separate subaccounts in the Reserve Account provided in Section 4.06(B)(4) hereof), or (E) a reduction in the aggregate principal amount of the Bonds required for consent to such Supplemental Resolution. Nothing herein contained, however, shall be construed as making necessary the approval by Bondholders or the Insurers or the Credit Banks of the adoption of any Supplemental Resolution as authorized in Section 8.01 hereof. If at any time the Issuer shall determine that it is necessary or desirable to adopt any Supplemental Resolution pursuant to this Section 8.02, the City Clerk shall cause the Registrar to give notice of the proposed adoption of such Supplemental Resolution and the form of consent to such adoption to be mailed, postage prepaid, to all Bondholders at their addresses as they appear on the registration books. Such notice shall briefly set forth the nature of the proposed Supplemental Resolution and shall state that copies thereof are on file at the offices of the City Clerk and the Registrar for inspection by all Bondholders. The Issuer shall not, however, be subject to any liability to any Bondholder by reason of its failure to cause the notice required by this Section 8.02 to be mailed and any such failure shall not affect the validity of such Supplemental Resolution when consented to and approved as provided in this Section 8.02. Whenever the Issuer shall deliver to the City Clerk an instrument or instruments in writing purporting to be executed by the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate 69 principal amount of the Bonds then Outstanding, which instrument or instruments shall refer to the proposed Supplemental Resolution described in such notice and shall specifically consent to and approve the adoption thereof in substantially the form of the copy thereof referred to in such notice, thereupon, but not otherwise, the Issuer may adopt such Supplemental Resolution in substantially such form, without liability or responsibility to any Holder of any Bond, whether or not such Holder shall have consented thereto. If the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Bonds Outstanding at the time of the adoption of such Supplemental Resolution shall have consented to and approved the adoption thereof as herein provided, no Holder of any Bond shall have any right to object to the adoption of such Supplemental Resolution, or to object to any of the terms and provisions contained therein or the operation thereof, or in any manner to question the propriety of the adoption thereof, or to enjoin or restrain the Issuer from adopting the same or from taking any action pursuant to the provisions thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the initial purchasers of Additional Bonds shall be deemed to have consented in writing to any amendments to the Resolution that are to become effective on or after the issuance of such Additional Bonds in accordance with this Section 8.02 if the proposed amendments are reasonably disclosed in the offering documentation prepared and distributed in connection with the issuance of such Additional Bonds and the related Supplemental Resolution provides that such initial purchasers have so consented through their purchase. Upon the adoption of any Supplemental Resolution pursuant to the provisions of this Section 8.02, this Resolution shall be deemed to be modified and amended in accordance therewith, and the respective rights, duties and obligations under this Resolution of the Issuer and all Holders of Bonds then Outstanding shall thereafter be determined, exercised and enforced in all respects under the provisions of this Resolution as so modified and amended. SECTION 8.03. AMENDMENT WITH CONSENT OF INSURER ONLY. For purposes of amending this Resolution pursuant to Section 8.02 hereof, an Insurer of Bonds shall be considered the Holder of such Bonds which it has insured. The consent of the Holders of such Bonds shall not be required if the Insurer of such Bonds shall consent to the amendment as provided by this Section 8.03 and such Insurer is not in default with respect to its obligations under its Bond Insurance Policy. Prior to adoption of any amendment made pursuant to this Section 8.03, notice of such amendment shall be delivered to the rating agencies rating the Bonds. Upon filing with the City Clerk of evidence of such consent the Insurer or Insurers as aforesaid, the Issuer may adopt such Supplemental Resolution. After the adoption by the Issuer of such Supplemental Resolution, notice thereof shall be mailed in the same manner as notices of an amendment under Section 8.02 hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the consent of all 70 C-37 affected Bondholders shall still be required with respect to any amendment set forth in clauses (A), (B), (C), (D) or (E) in the first paragraph of Section 8.02 hereof. [Remainder of page intentionally left blank] 71 ARTICLE IX DEFEASANCE SECTION 9.01. DEFEASANCE. If (A) the Issuer shall pay or cause to be paid or there shall otherwise be paid to the Holders of any Series of Bonds the principal and interest or Redemption Price, plus accrued interest, due or to become due thereon, at the times and in the manner stipulated therein and in this Resolution, and (B) the Issuer shall pay all Policy Costs owing to any provider of a Reserve Account Letter of Credit or Reserve Account Insurance Policy and all amounts owing to the Insurers, then all covenants, agreements and other obligations of the Issuer to the holders of such Series of Bonds, shall thereupon cease, terminate and become void and be discharged and satisfied. In such event, the Paying Agents shall pay over or deliver to the Issuer all money or securities held by them pursuant to this Resolution which are not required for payment or redemption of any Series of Bonds not theretofore surrendered for such payment or redemption. Any Bonds or interest installments appertaining thereto shall be deemed to have been paid within the meaning of this Section 9.01 if (i) in case any such Bonds are to be redeemed prior to the maturity thereof, there shall have been taken all action necessary to call such Bonds for redemption and notice of such redemption shall have been duly given or provision shall have been made for the giving of such notice, and (ii) there shall have been deposited in irrevocable trust with a banking institution or trust company by or on behalf of the Issuer either moneys in an amount which shall be sufficient, or Refunding Securities verified by an independent certified public accountant or nationally recognized company that provides verification services for municipal bonds to be in such amount that the principal of and the interest on or redemption price which when due will provide moneys which, together with the moneys, if any, deposited with such banking institution or trust company at the same time shall be sufficient, to pay the principal of and interest due and to become due on said Bonds on and prior to the maturity date thereof. Except as hereafter provided, neither the Refunding Securities nor any moneys so deposited with such banking institution or trust company nor any moneys received by such bank or trust company on account of principal of or redemption price, if applicable, or interest on said Refunding Securities shall be withdrawn or used for any purpose other than, and all such moneys shall be held in trust for and be applied to, the payment, when due, of the principal of or redemption price of the Bonds for the payment of which they were deposited and the interest accruing thereon to the date of maturity; provided, however, the Issuer may substitute new Refunding Securities and moneys for the deposited Refunding Securities and moneys if the new Refunding Securities and moneys are sufficient to pay the principal of and interest on or redemption price of the refunded Bonds. For purposes of determining whether Variable Rate Bonds shall be deemed to have been paid prior to the maturity or the redemption date thereof, as the case may be, 72 C-38 by the deposit of moneys, or specified Refunding Securities and moneys, if any, in accordance with this Section 9.01, the interest to come due on such Variable Rate Bonds on or prior to the maturity or redemption date thereof, as the case may be, shall be calculated at the Maximum Interest Rate; provided, however, that if on any date, as a result of such Variable Rate Bonds having borne interest at less than the Maximum Interest Rate for any period, the total amount of moneys and specified Refunding Securities on deposit for the payment of interest on such Variable Rate Bonds is in excess of the total amount which would have been required to be deposited on such date in respect of such Variable Rate Bonds in order to satisfy this Section 9.01, such excess shall be paid to the Issuer free and clear of any trust, lien, pledge or assignment securing the Bonds or otherwise existing under this Resolution. If Bonds are not to be redeemed or paid within 60 days after any such defeasance described in this Section 9.01, the Issuer shall cause the Registrar to mail a notice to the Holders of such Bonds that the deposit required by this Section 9.01 of moneys or Refunding Securities has been made and said Bonds are deemed to be paid in accordance with the provisions of this Section 9.01 and stating such maturity date upon which moneys are to be available for the payment of the principal of and interest on or redemption price of said Bonds. Failure to provide said notice shall not affect the Bonds being deemed to have been paid in accordance with the provisions of this Section 9.01. Nothing herein shall be deemed to require the Issuer to call any of the Outstanding Bonds for redemption prior to maturity pursuant to any applicable optional redemption provisions, or to impair the discretion of the Issuer in determining whether to exercise any such option for early redemption. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event that the principal of or interest due on the Bonds shall be paid by an Insurer or Insurers, such Bonds shall remain Outstanding, shall not be def eased or otherwise satisfied and shall not be considered paid by the Issuer, and the pledge of the Pledged Funds and all covenants, agreements and other obligations of the Issuer to the Bondholders shall continue to exist and such Insurer or Insurers shall be subrogated to the rights of such Bondholders. [Remainder of page intentionally left blank] 73 ARTICLEX MISCELLANEOUS SECTION 10.01. CAPITAL APPRECIATION BONDS. For the purposes of (A) receiving payment of the Redemption Price if a Capital Appreciation Bond is redeemed prior to maturity, or (B) receiving payment of a Capital Appreciation Bond if the principal of all Bonds becomes due and payable under the provisions of this Resolution, or (C) computing the amount of Bonds held by the Holder of a Capital Appreciation Bond in giving to the Issuer or any trustee or receiver appointed to represent the Bondholders any notice, consent, request or demand pursuant to this Resolution for any purpose whatsoever, the principal amount of a Capital Appreciation Bond shall be deemed to be its Accreted Value. SECTION 10.02. SALE OF BONDS. The Bonds shall be issued and sold at public or private sale at one time or in installments from time to time and at such price or prices as shall be consistent with the provisions of the Act, the requirements of this Resolution and other applicable provisions of law, all as provided in a Supplemental Resolution. SECTION 10.03. SEVERABILITY OF INVALID PROVISIONS. If any one or more of the covenants, agreements or provisions of this Resolution shall be held contrary to any express provision of law or contrary to the policy of express law, though not expressly prohibited, or against public policy, or shall for any reason whatsoever be held invalid, then such covenants, agreements or provisions shall be null and void and shall be deemed separable from the remaining covenants, agreements and provisions of this Resolution and shall in no way affect the validity of any of the other covenants, agreements or provisions hereof or of the Bonds issued hereunder. SECTION 10.04. VALIDATION AUTHORIZED. To the extent deemed necessary by Bond Counsel or desirable by the City Attorney, Bond Counsel is authorized to institute appropriate proceedings for validation of a Series of Bonds herein authorized pursuant to Chapter 75, Florida Statutes.

All ordinances, resolutions or parts thereof in conflict herewith are hereby superseded and repealed to the extent of such conflict. 74 C-39 SECTION 3. RESOLUTION TO CONTINUE IN FORCE. Except as herein expressly provided, the Resolution and all of the terms and provisions thereof are and shall remain in full force and effect. The amendment and restatement of the Resolution as provided herein shall not become effective until the consent of not less than two-thirds (2/3) in aggregate principal amount and Accreted Value of the Bonds then Outstanding has been obtained together with all required consents of municipal bond insurers and credit facility providers. SECTION 4. SEVERABILITY OF INVALID PROVISIONS. If any one or more of the covenants, agreements or provisions of this Resolution shall be held contrary to any express provision of law or contrary to the policy of express law, though not expressly prohibited, or against public policy, or shall for any reason whatsoever be held invalid, then such covenants, agreements or provisions shall be null and void and shall be deemed separable from the remaining covenants, agreements and provisions of this Resolution and shall in no way affect the validity of any of the other covenants, agreements or provisions hereof or of the Bonds issued hereunder. SECTION 5. REPEAL OF INCONSISTENT RESOLUTIONS. All ordinances, resolutions or parts thereof in conflict herewith are hereby superseded and repealed to the extent of such conflict. SECTION 6. EFFECTIVE DATE. This Resolution shall become effective immediately upon its adoption.

RECITALS WHEREAS, on August 18, 2011, the City Council (the "Council") of the City of Tampa, Florida (the "Issuer") adopted Resolution No. 2011‐609, amending and restating in its entirety Resolution No. 88‐1435 which had amended, supplemented and restated in its entirety Resolution No. 88‐1230 (as such Resolution No. 2011‐609 has been supplemented from time to time including, without limitation, as supplemented by this resolution, hereafter referred to as the "Resolution"). WHEREAS, pursuant to the Resolution the Issuer has heretofore issued its Water and Sewer Systems Refunding Revenue Bonds, Series 2015 (the "Series 2015 Bonds"), Water and Wastewater Systems Revenue Bond, Series 2016 (the "Series 2016 Bond"), Water and Wastewater Systems Revenue Bonds, Series 2020A (the "Series 2020A Bonds"), Taxable Water and Wastewater Systems Refunding Revenue Bonds, Series 2020B (the "Series 2020B Bonds"), Water and Wastewater Systems Revenue Bonds, Series 2022A (Green Bonds) (the "Series 2022A Bonds") and Water and Wastewater Systems Revenue Bonds, Series 2022B (the "Series 2022B Bonds"), all of which are currently outstanding. 2 WHEREAS, the Issuer hereby determines that certain capital improvements to the System (as defined in the Resolution) should be acquired, constructed and equipped in order to improve the health, safety and welfare of the Issuer's inhabitants, such capital improvements being generally described in Exhibit A hereto and more particularly described in the records, plans and specifications on file with the Issuer, as the same may be amended or supplemented from time to time (the "Series 2024 Project"). WHEREAS, the Resolution provides for the issuance of Additional Bonds (as defined in the Resolution), payable on parity with the Series 2015 Bonds, the Series 2016 Bond, the Series 2020A Bonds, the Series 2020B Bonds, the Series 2022A Bonds and the Series 2022B Bonds (collectively the "Parity Bonds") in the manner and to the extent provided in the Resolution, for the principal purposes of financing and/or reimbursing costs of the Series 2024 Project. WHEREAS, the Issuer deems it to be in its best interest to issue its City of Tampa, Florida Water and Wastewater Systems Revenue Bonds, Series 2024 (the "Series 2024 Bonds") for the principal purpose of financing and/or reimbursing costs of the Series 2024 Project on parity with the Parity Bonds, in the manner and to the extent provided herein and in the Resolution. WHEREAS, due to the potential volatility of the market for tax‐exempt municipal obligations such as the Series 2024 Bonds and the complexity of the transactions relating to such Series 2024 Bonds, it is in the best interest of the Issuer to sell the Series 2024 Bonds by a negotiated sale, allowing the Issuer to enter the market at the most advantageous time for such Series 2024 Bonds, rather than at a specified advertised date, thereby permitting the Issuer to obtain the best possible prices and interest rates for the Series 2024 Bonds. WHEREAS, the Issuer anticipates receiving a favorable offer to purchase the Series 2024 Bonds from BofA Securities, Inc., Jefferies LLC, Raymond James & Associates, Inc., RBC Capital Markets, LLC, Samuel A. Ramirez & Co., Inc. and Siebert Williams Shank & Co., LLC (collectively, and as such members may be modified pursuant to Section 4 hereof, the "Underwriters"), pursuant to the hereinafter defined Purchase Contract, all within the parameters set forth herein. WHEREAS, inasmuch as the Issuer desires to sell the Series 2024 Bonds at the most advantageous time to obtain favorable financing terms and not wait for a scheduled meeting of the Council, so long as the herein described parameters are met, the Issuer hereby determines to delegate the award and sale of the Series 2024 Bonds and certain other responsibilities to the Mayor (as defined in the Resolution) in accordance with the parameters herein provided. WHEREAS, the Resolution provides that Additional Bonds shall mature on such dates and in such amounts, shall bear such rates of interest, shall be payable in such places and shall be subject to such redemption provisions as shall be determined by Supplemental Resolution (as defined in the Resolution) adopted by the Issuer; and it is now appropriate that the Issuer determine with respect to the Series 2024 Bonds certain of such provisions, terms and details and establish parameters and the mechanisms for determining the remaining provisions, terms and details. C-41 3 WHEREAS, the Issuer hereby certifies that it is current in all deposits into the various funds and accounts established by the Resolution and all payments theretofore required to have been deposited or made by the Issuer under the provisions of the Resolution have been deposited or made and the Issuer has complied with the covenants and agreements of the Resolution and is not currently in default under the Resolution. WHEREAS, the Series 2024 Bonds shall not be or constitute general obligations or indebtedness of the Issuer as "bonds" within the meaning of any constitutional or statutory provision, but shall be special obligations of the Issuer, payable solely from and secured by a lien upon and pledge of the Pledged Funds (as defined in the Resolution), in the manner and to the extent provided in the Resolution. No holder of a Series 2024 Bond shall ever have the right to compel the exercise of any ad valorem taxing power to pay such Series 2024 Bond or be entitled to payment of such Series 2024 Bond from any moneys of the Issuer except from the Pledged Funds in the manner and to the extent provided in the Resolution. The Series 2024 Bonds and the obligations evidenced thereby shall not constitute a lien upon the System (as defined in the Resolution) or any other property of the Issuer, but shall constitute a lien only on, and shall be payable solely from, the Pledged Funds. WHEREAS, the covenants, pledges and conditions in the Resolution shall be applicable to the Series 2024 Bonds herein authorized and said Series 2024 Bonds shall be on a parity with and rank equally as to the lien on and source and security for payment from the Pledged Funds and in all other respects with the Parity Bonds, in the manner and to the extent provided herein and in the Resolution and shall constitute "Bonds" within the meaning of the Resolution.

The Series 2024 Bonds shall bear interest computed on the basis of a 360‐day year consisting of twelve 30‐day months.

The Mayor is hereby authorized to execute, and the City Clerk is hereby authorized to attest and affix the official seal of the Issuer to, the Purchase Contract in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit B with such modifications as the Mayor deems appropriate upon satisfaction of the conditions described in Section 5 hereof, the Mayor's execution thereof being evidence of her approval of the Purchase Contract. Prior to the execution and delivery of the Purchase Contract, the Mayor may determine in her discretion to modify the members that make up the Underwriters provided all members have been previously approved to be members of underwriting teams for the Issuer. Interest on the Series 2024 Bonds shall be payable by check or draft of U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, Orlando, Florida, as Paying Agent, made payable to and mailed to the Holder in whose name such Bond shall be registered at the close of business on the date which shall be the fifteenth day (whether or not a business day) of the calendar month next preceding the applicable Interest Date, or, at the request of such Holder, by bank wire transfer to the account of such Holder.

SECTION 6. REDEMPTION PROVISIONS. The Series 2024 Bonds may be redeemed prior to their respective maturities from any moneys legally available therefor, upon notice as provided in the Resolution, upon the terms and provisions as determined by the Mayor, in her discretion and upon the advice of the Financial Advisor; provided, however, with respect to optional redemption terms for the Series 2024 Bonds, if any, the parameters set forth in Section 5(B) must be satisfied. The Mayor may determine, upon the advice of the Financial Advisor, that none of the Series 2024 Bonds shall be subject to optional redemption. Term 6 Bonds may be established with such Sinking Fund Installments as the Mayor deems appropriate and upon the advice of the Financial Advisor. The redemption provisions for the Series 2024 Bonds, if any, shall be set forth in the Purchase Contract. SECTION 7. BOOK‐ENTRY. Notwithstanding the provisions set forth in Section 2.06 of the Resolution, the Series 2024 Bonds shall be initially issued in the form of a separate single certificated fully registered Bond for each maturity of the Series 2024 Bonds. Upon initial issuance, the ownership of the Series 2024 Bonds shall be registered in the registration books kept by the Registrar in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee of The Depository Trust Company ("DTC"). As long as the Series 2024 Bonds shall be registered in the name of Cede & Co., all payments on the Series 2024 Bonds shall be made by the Paying Agent by check or draft or by bank wire transfer to Cede & Co., as Holder of the Series 2024 Bonds. With respect to Series 2024 Bonds registered in the registration books kept by the Registrar in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee of DTC, the Issuer, the Registrar and the Paying Agent shall have no responsibility or obligation to any direct or indirect participant in the DTC book‐entry program (a "Participant"). Without limiting the immediately preceding sentence, the Issuer, the Registrar and the Paying Agent shall have no responsibility or obligation with respect to (A) the accuracy of the records of DTC, Cede & Co. or any Participant with respect to any ownership interest on the Series 2024 Bonds, (B) the delivery to any Participant or any other person other than a Series 2024 Bondholder, as shown in the registration books kept by the Registrar, of any notice with respect to the Series 2024 Bonds, or (C) the payment to any Participant or any other person, other than a Series 2024 Bondholder, as shown in the registration books kept by the Registrar, of any amount with respect to principal or interest of the Series 2024 Bonds. The Issuer, the Registrar and the Paying Agent may treat and consider the person in whose name each Bond is registered in the registration books kept by the Registrar as the Holder and absolute owner of such Series 2024 Bond for the purpose of payment of principal or interest with respect to such Series 2024 Bond, for the purpose of giving notices and other matters with respect to such Series 2024 Bond, for the purpose of registering transfers with respect to such Series 2024 Bond, and for all other purposes whatsoever. The Paying Agent shall pay all principal or interest of the Series 2024 Bonds only to or upon the order of the respective Holders, as shown in the registration books kept by the Registrar, or their respective attorneys duly authorized in writing, as provided herein and in the Resolution and all such payments shall be valid and effective to fully satisfy and discharge the Issuer's obligations with respect to payment of principal or interest of the Series 2024 Bonds to the extent of the sum or sums so paid. No person other than a Series 2024 Bondholder, as shown in the registration books kept by the Registrar, shall receive a certificated Series 2024 Bond evidencing the obligation of the Issuer to make payments of principal or interest pursuant to the provisions of the Resolution and hereof. Upon delivery by DTC to the Issuer of written notice to the effect that DTC has determined to substitute a new nominee in place of Cede & Co., and subject to the provisions in Section 2.06 of the Resolution with respect to transfers during certain periods next preceding an Interest Date or the date a Series 2024 Bond has been selected for redemption, the words "Cede & Co." in the Resolution C-43 7 and herein shall refer to such new nominee of DTC; and upon receipt of such notice, the Issuer shall promptly deliver a copy of the same to the Registrar and the Paying Agent. Upon (A) receipt by the Issuer of written notice from DTC (i) to the effect that a continuation of the requirement that all of the outstanding Series 2024 Bonds be registered in the registration books kept by the Registrar in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee of DTC, is not in the best interest of the beneficial owners of such Series or (ii) to the effect that DTC is unable or unwilling to discharge its responsibilities and no substitute depository willing to undertake the functions of DTC hereunder can be found which is willing and able to undertake such functions upon reasonable and customary terms, or (B) determination by the Issuer, in its sole discretion, that such book‐entry only system should be discontinued by the Issuer, such Series 2024 Bonds shall no longer be restricted to being registered in the registration books kept by the Registrar in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee of DTC, but shall be registered in whatever name or names Holders shall designate, in accordance with the provisions of the Resolution. In such event, the Issuer shall issue, and the Registrar shall authenticate, transfer and exchange the Series 2024 Bonds consistent with the terms of the Resolution, in denominations of $5,000 or any integral multiple thereof to the Holders thereof. The foregoing notwithstanding, until such time as participation in the book‐entry only system is discontinued, the provisions set forth in the existing Blanket Issuer Letter of Representations previously executed by the Issuer and delivered to DTC shall apply to the payment of principal and interest on the Series 2024 Bonds. SECTION 8. FORM OF SERIES 2024 BONDS. The text of the Series 2024 Bonds, together with the Registrar's Certificate of Authentication, shall be substantially in the form set forth in Section 2.07 of the Resolution, with such omissions, insertions and variations as may be necessary or desirable and authorized or permitted by the Resolution, or as may be necessary to comply with applicable laws, rules and regulations of the United States, the State of Florida and the Issuer in effect upon the issuance thereof.

The City is issuing the 2024 Bonds to finance certain additions, extensions, and improvements to its water and wastewater facilities (System); finance or reimburse the costs of certain capital improvements to the System; and pay certain costs of issuance of the 2024 Bonds. The City authorized Carollo Engineers, Inc. (Carollo) to prepare this Consulting Engineer’s Report to support the 2024 Bonds issuance. This report contains the following items concerning the portion of the system that includes water treatment, storage, and distribution and wastewater collection and treatment: Description of the System including facility and transmission operations, water demands and wastewater flows, and ongoing projects. Information about the current condition and the nature of operations of the System. Status of permits for the System and other relevant regulations. Summary of the City’s water and wastewater capital improvement program (CIP). The focus period for this report is fiscal year (FY) 2023, the City’s most recently completed FY, which encompasses the 12-month period October 1, 2022, through September 30, 2023. Historical data included are for the past seven FYs (2017 through 2023), depending on information availability unless noted otherwise. All other information is current at the time the report was written to the best of Carollo’s knowledge. In preparing this report, Carollo primarily relied on the City to provide information that is not possible to independently verify. Carollo believes that this information is valid for the purposes of this report. 1.1 Background of the Water and Wastewater Departments The City’s Water and Wastewater departments are administered and supervised by the City's Deputy Administrator of Infrastructure. The City provides potable water service and the distribution of reclaimed water to customers through the Water Department. Also, the City provides wastewater service and treats the reclaimed water, which is distributed by the Water Department, through the Wastewater Department. Both the Water Department and Wastewater Department service areas, shown in Figure 1, are bordered by Pasco County to the north; unincorporated Hillsborough County to the east and west; and Tampa Bay, Old Tampa Bay, and Hillsborough Bay to the south. Reclaimed water for land application service is available to approximately 5,594 customers in an area called the South Tampa Area Reclaimed and includes approximately 7.2 square miles of South Tampa and the Tampa International Airport.

D-7 WATER AND WASTEWATER SYSTEMS REVENUE BONDS, SERIES 2024 SEPTEMBER 2024 / FINAL / CAROLLO CITY OF TAMPA CONSULTING ENGINEER’S REPORT 3 SECTION 2 INTERLOCAL AGREEMENTS The City is a is a member of Tampa Bay Water (TBW) and has an executed interlocal agreement with TBW. Additionally, the City maintains interlocal agreements with Hillsborough County and the City of Temple Terrace. The terms and conditions of these agreements are outlined in the following subsections. 2.1 Tampa Bay Water In 1998, the City became a member of TBW and executed the Amended and Restated Interlocal Agreement Reorganizing the West Coast Regional Water Supply Authority with Hillsborough, Pasco, and Pinellas Counties and the Cities of St. Petersburg and New Port Richey (members). This agreement was directed by the legislature to reconstitute the West Coast Regional Water Supply Authority. TBW consists of the above six members and is governed by a Board of Directors that consists of two representatives from each county and one representative from each city. This agreement was established for the following purposes: “Developing, recovering, storing and supplying water for county and municipal purposes” in a manner that reduces “adverse environmental effects of excessive or improper withdrawals of water.” Reorganize “to eliminate rate differentials, varying entitlements and other divergent interests.” The agreement identifies the rights and obligations of the members and TBW, although TBW is not a party to the agreement. TBW is the regional water supply authority that is the exclusive wholesale provider of water to the members. However, the City has an exception to the exclusivity requirement that other members do not in that it retained its water use permit (WUP) and the right to withdraw water from the Hillsborough River Reservoir for its customers as authorized by the Southwest Florida Water Management District (SWFWMD). Section 3.04 of the agreement defines the unitary rate structure by which TBW is required to sell potable water to the members. However, water delivered to the City from the Tampa Bypass Canal is sold at a rate that is equal to TBW’s direct cost and allocated overhead indicated in Section 3.08(D). Section 3.05 states that TBW and the members agree to the terms and conditions of the Master Water Supply Contract, to which TBW is a party, and is provided in Appendix B of the agreement. More specifically, the Master Water Supply Contract contains the rights and obligations of the members and TBW as they pertain to the operation and maintenance of the regional system, water supply connection points, water treatment, and water quality. Only under certain conditions may members sell water to other members. However, because the City had points of connection with Hillsborough County at the time of execution of the agreement, those points of connection and the provision of water by the City to Hillsborough County are recognized in the agreement. D-8 WATER AND WASTEWATER SYSTEMS REVENUE BONDS, SERIES 2024 SEPTEMBER 2024 / FINAL / CAROLLO CITY OF TAMPA CONSULTING ENGINEER’S REPORT 4 Section 3.08 and Appendix B of the agreement describe the City’s exception from the exclusivity provision described above. The City may purchase water from TBW if the City has a need and TBW has water available that is not needed first by other members. TBW can also purchase water from the City if needed. The agreement to join as a member required all members to sell their wellfields to TBW including the City’s Morris Bridge wellfield. Section 5.03 and Appendix E of the agreement outline the terms under which the City sold the Morris Bridge wellfield to TBW. Shortly after execution of the TBW interlocal agreement, TBW and its members entered into an agreement with SWFWMD referred to as the Partnership Agreement. The goals of this agreement were to reduce groundwater pumping from 11 long-term producing wellfields, develop new water supply sources, end litigation, and obtain funding from SWFWMD for long-term development of alternative water supplies necessary to meet future demands of the region. SWFWMD is the regional agency with regulatory authorization and jurisdiction to issue WUPs and other permits. Under this agreement, SWFWMD combined all permits for TBW’s central system wellfields into a single consolidated permit (WUP #20011771). Additionally, SWFWMD agreed to provide up to $183 million in funding for TBW to develop new alternative water supply facilities and regionally significant transmission pipelines. This agreement has a 40-year term and will expire in 2038 unless TBW has outstanding debt. 2.2 Hillsborough County The City entered into an interlocal agreement with Hillsborough County in June 1979 to comply with orders from the Florida Legislature requiring Hillsborough County and the City “to make the most efficient use of their powers by enabling them to cooperate with each other … to provide services and facilities for water and sewer systems … to the county and the city.” Since then, the agreement has been amended several times. It was established for the following purposes: Comply with Florida statutory law. Delineate geographic boundaries outside City limits but within Hillsborough County for which the Water Department and the Wastewater Department would provide water and wastewater services. Define the rates and charges to be paid by Hillsborough County to the City for providing these services. Require Hillsborough County and the City to share easements and rights-of-way. This agreement had a 40-year term and would have expired in June 2019 had the City and Hillsborough County not agreed to extend the term of the agreement to allow time to negotiate agreeable terms for a new agreement. The current agreement term, as amended, has been extended to June 2025. D-9 WATER AND WASTEWATER SYSTEMS REVENUE BONDS, SERIES 2024 SEPTEMBER 2024 / FINAL / CAROLLO CITY OF TAMPA CONSULTING ENGINEER’S REPORT 5 Additional interlocal agreements between Hillsborough County and the City as they pertain to water and wastewater services are as follows: 1. In 1993, the City agreed to provide wastewater services to a private utility franchised by Hillsborough County called Southern States Utilities, Inc. This agreement automatically renews every five years unless terminated by any party. 2. In 1994, the City agreed to provide wastewater services to the Hillsborough County Aviation Authority, which governs Tampa International Airport. 3. In 2016, the City defined the means of service and rate for Hillsborough County to directly serve North Palm River residents’ water provided by the Water Department. 2.3 City of Temple Terrace In 1962, the City entered an interlocal agreement to provide the City of Temple Terrace with wastewater service. This agreement has been amended several times. This agreement was established for the following purposes: Define the terms and responsibilities by which the City will accept wastewater flows from the City of Temple Terrace. The City is to “implement and enforce a pretreatment program to control discharges from all industrial users” in accordance with the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) and the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP). The City is to update wastewater ordinances and their Wastewater Department Technical Manual of Standards for Industrial and Special Users in accordance with the FDEP. Obligate both parties to ensure compliance with the Clean Water Act. This agreement was most recently amended in 2021 to allow for an increased peak flow from one of the City of Temple Terrace’s master pump stations which was recently reconstructed. This agreement is valid until 2032. However, the City of Temple Terrace is entitled to cancel the agreement under the terms as outlined in the agreement. The City of Temple Terrace must make monthly payments to the City for wastewater service. D-10 WATER AND WASTEWATER SYSTEMS REVENUE BONDS, SERIES 2024 SEPTEMBER 2024 / FINAL / CAROLLO CITY OF TAMPA CONSULTING ENGINEER’S REPORT 6 SECTION 3 WATER SYSTEM The City’s Water Department owns and operates the David L. Tippin Water Treatment Facility (DLTWTF) and provides potable water services to the City, a portion of unincorporated Hillsborough County, and a small portion of the City of Temple Terrace. The main water supply source for the DLTWTF is the Hillsborough River Reservoir. In addition, the Water Department may purchase potable water from TBW and is permitted to augment the Hillsborough River Reservoir with water from the Harney Canal, Sulphur Springs, or their aquifer storage and recovery (ASR) system. 3.1 Management and Staffing The Water Department is composed of three operating divisions: Engineering, Distribution and Consumer Services, and Production. Rory A. Jones, Professional Engineer (P.E.), has over 25 years in the Water and Wastewater municipality field. He serves as the Director for the Tampa Water Department.

Prior to his current position, Mr. Ring held several positions at General Electric’s Water and Process Technologies Division. He holds a bachelor’s degree in chemical engineering from the University of Illinois. D-11 WATER AND WASTEWATER SYSTEMS REVENUE BONDS, SERIES 2024 SEPTEMBER 2024 / FINAL / CAROLLO CITY OF TAMPA CONSULTING ENGINEER’S REPORT 7 3.2 Water Supply The Water Department has permitted access to several water supply sources including a main source and secondary sources used for augmentation as authorized and when needed. Additionally, the Water Department may choose to purchase water from TBW when other sources are limited. The primary raw water source for the DLTWTF is the Hillsborough River Reservoir. The City is authorized by SWFWMD under WUP #20002062.006 to withdraw an annual average quantity of 82 million gallons per day (mgd) and a maximum daily quantity of 120 mgd from the Hillsborough River Reservoir. Also, as stated in the interlocal agreement with TBW, the City can pursue an increase in its withdrawal rate up to 142 mgd peak month and 142 mgd maximum day provided that the proposed increase does not reduce the quantities available to TBW for the region. Additionally, the City may seek an increase in the annual average withdrawal from the Hillsborough River Reservoir to satisfy environmental needs after TBW permitted withdrawals for regional use have been met. Secondary water supply sources include the following: The City is permitted to withdraw from Sulphur Springs an annual average limit of 5 mgd and a maximum of 20 mgd, which can be used to augment the Hillsborough River Reservoir during low-flow periods or to maintain minimum flow at the base of the Hillsborough River dam. Most of the water diverted from Sulphur Springs is committed to helping meet the minimum flow for the Lower Hillsborough River adopted by SWFWMD and imposed as a regulatory obligation on the City. The City owns an ASR system that consists of eight wells and is used to store treated water in an aquifer during the wet season and recover the water during the dry season or when other supplies are limited. The wells have a storage capacity of 1.2 billion gallons and are permitted for withdrawal of 10 mgd for a period of 120 days. TBW holds a WUP that authorizes withdrawal from the Tampa Bypass Canal of 20 mgd annual average with a peak month limit of 40 mgd to augment the Hillsborough River Reservoir under certain conditions. Furthermore, the Water Department maintains interconnects with TBW at the Morris Bridge re-pump station (RPS) and the US 301 interconnect that allow the Water Department to purchase water from TBW under certain conditions when necessary. 3.3 Water Treatment Facility The DLTWTF is located on approximately 54 acres along the Hillsborough River. The facility was constructed in the 1920s and remains one of Florida’s few water treatment facilities to treat water from a surface water source rather than from groundwater. The DLTWTF operates to provide safe drinking water by reducing disinfection by-product formation, removing total organic carbon (TOC) and color, improving the aesthetic quality of the water, and reducing taste and odor causing compounds. Treatment begins when water is withdrawn from the Hillsborough River Reservoir and screened through a grass bar rack followed by mechanical screens to remove finer debris. Then, raw water is pumped to the DLTWTF's four conventional treatment trains, which include coagulation, flocculation, and sedimentation. Together, these trains receive 70 to 80 percent of the total plant flow. The remaining flow is treated through two Actiflo™ treatment trains. Both systems, conventional and Actiflo™, use ferric sulfate as a coagulant and sulfuric acid for pH adjustment. D-12 WATER AND WASTEWATER SYSTEMS REVENUE BONDS, SERIES 2024 SEPTEMBER 2024 / FINAL / CAROLLO CITY OF TAMPA CONSULTING ENGINEER’S REPORT 8 After sedimentation, lime is added to the conventional treatment trains for pH adjustment. Then, the flow is directed to the ozonation process for primary disinfection. After primary disinfection, the flow is treated with caustic soda to achieve a pH of between 6.5 and 7.3 and then conveyed to the biological activated filtration process, which consists of 30 gravity filters. Finally, the water is treated with chlorine and ammonia to form chloramines for secondary disinfection. Treated water is stored in clear wells before being sent into the distribution system via the onsite high service pump stations. The sludge from both the conventional and the Actiflo™ treatment trains and filter waste wash water is thickened onsite. The onsite system consists of a surge tank, four gravity thickeners, two splitter boxes, and two sludge pumping stations. The supernatant from the thickeners is routed back to the head of the plant, while the thickened residuals are sent to the sludge processing facility for further processing and dewatering. Carollo staff met with Production Shift Supervisor Paul Noeske for a site visit to the DLTWTF in April 2021. The site visit was a limited condition assessment in areas for which the site could be visually inspected (aboveground facilities). Also, some aboveground facilities were not visited at this time due to ongoing construction activities. Therefore, the site visit was not a complete assessment. Overall, based on the site visit and discussions with City staff, Carollo believes the DLTWTF to be in relatively good condition. 3.4 Pumping and Storage The water system has 26 high service pumps in three (3) pressure zones that deliver treated water to customers. The DLTWTF pressure zone is supplied by eight (8) high service pumps at the plant and five (5) high service pumps at three RPSs: Northwest, West Tampa, and Palma Ceia. The total combined pumping capacity of the DLTWTF pressure zone is 200 mgd. The North Tampa pressure zone is supplied by seven (7) pumps at the Morris Bridge RPS, which has a total pumping capacity of 77 mgd, and the South Tampa pressure zone is supplied by six (6) high service pumps at the Interbay RPS, which has a total pumping capacity of 18 mgd. The Morris Bridge RPS normally pumps treated water supplied by the DLTWTF pressure zone and occasionally by TBW when needed. Throughout the water system, there are approximately 41.0 million gallons (MG) of storage with an effective capacity of 31.0 MG. Treated water is stored at the DLTWTF in underground clear wells, which have a combined capacity of 20.0 MG. Additionally, there are two 5.0-MG ground storage tanks at the Morris Bridge RPS, a 3.0-MG ground storage tank at the Northwest RPS, another 5.0-MG ground storage tank at the Interbay RPS, one 1.5-MG elevated storage tank at Palma Ceia, and one 1.5-MG elevated storage tank at West Tampa for storing treated water. Combined, these facilities provide a total of 41.0 MG of storage for finished water. However, pump suction line locations at the DLTWTF and the Morris Bridge RPS reduce the effective storage to 12.5 MG and 7.5 MG, respectfully, so the actual effective storage volume of the water system is 31.0 MG. The City has an additional 1.2 billion gallons of storage through its ASR system. Figure 2 shows the assets contained in each pressure zone.

The distribution mains range in diameter from 2 to 12 inches and are mostly made of cast iron, ductile iron, polyvinyl chloride (PVC), or high-density polyethylene. The transmission mains range in diameter from 16 to 54 inches and are mostly made of cast iron and ductile iron. The City’s Progressive Infrastructure Planning to Ensure Sustainability (PIPES) program is a proactive approach to replace existing pipes that are undersized or made of material that negatively affects water quality, to renew aging infrastructure, and to prevent main breaks. Table 1 lists the lengths of water mains by diameter.

Over the past five years, the historical average number of water accounts has generally increased. Correspondingly, the average daily demand has increased gradually. In FY 2023, the average daily demand was 81.6 mgd per the City’s public supply annual report. The average number of accounts and average daily demands include both residential and nonresidential customers. Table 2 summarizes the estimated average water accounts and average daily demand based on FY 2017 to FY 2023 data as provided by the City.

Demands are anticipated to increase as the water system grows and the customer base expands. As part of their master planning efforts, the City developed water demand projections through the 2035 planning horizon. These projections are based on the average of the SWFWMD, TBW, and the Water Department’s estimates for high and low projected population growth as outlined in the City’s Potable Water Master Plan1. Table 3 shows the average daily demand and maximum daily demand projections through 2035. Table 3 Projected Average and Maximum Daily Demands Year Projected Average Daily Demand, mgd Projected Maximum Daily Demand, mgd 2025 81.0 126.2 2030 84.5 131.8 2035 88.0 137.3 The average daily demand and maximum daily demand projections are 88.0 mgd and 137.3 mgd, respectively, for 2035. The DLTWTF currently has an average day treatment capacity flow rating of 100 mgd and a maximum day treatment capacity flow rating of 120 mgd. However, improvement and upgrade work are ongoing, which will increase the facilities maximum day treatment capacity flow rating to 140 mgd. Based on these projections, the existing production capacities, and the planned capacity expansion projects, the City should have sufficient capacity to meet its anticipated service needs through 2035. Projects to increase the plant’s capacity are detailed in the David L. Tippin Water Treatment Facility Master Plan2 and outlined in following section. 3.7 Capital Improvement Program The Water Department plans and manages CIP projects to maintain service needs and replace aging infrastructure. Accordingly, the City has adopted a CIP budget for the Water Department. Table 4 summarizes CIP funding amounts for FY 2024 through FY 2029, and Table 5 shows the CIP funding amounts for the water system separated by funding source. Information in this section was adapted from the Projected Water System Capital Improvement Program in the Water and Wastewater Financial Feasibility Report provided by the Raftelis. 1 Black and Veatch, 2018.

These standards are divided into two categories: primary regulations (those required for public health) and secondary regulations (those recommended for aesthetic qualities). The State of Florida has adopted the secondary regulations as enforceable standards. The FDEP has the primary role of regulating public water systems in Florida as derived from Chapter 403, Part IV, Florida Statutes and by delegation of the federal program from the USEPA. However, in Hillsborough County, the FDEP regulations are delegated to and administered by the Hillsborough County Health Department (local branch of the Florida Department of Health). The FDEP has promulgated rules within the Florida Administrative Code (FAC) Chapter 62 for regulation of public water supplies. The City’s potable water system complies with the rules of FAC Chapter 62. D-17 WATER AND WASTEWATER SYSTEMS REVENUE BONDS, SERIES 2024 SEPTEMBER 2024 / FINAL / CAROLLO CITY OF TAMPA CONSULTING ENGINEER’S REPORT 13 In accordance with the Safe Drinking Water Act requirements, the City publishes and distributes a drinking water quality annual report outlining the Water Department’s compliance with the water quality standards established by the USEPA. In 2023, the Water Department was awarded the “25-Year Directors Award” by the Partnership for Safe Water acknowledging ongoing treatment optimizations and water quality monitoring that go above and beyond regulatory requirements. The City is the only utility in Florida and one of 10 in the United States to receive this award. The City routinely funds annual renewal and replacement improvements to their public water system facilities. The City uses their in-house for regular monitoring of water quality. Comprehensive water quality tests are also performed annually using independent laboratories. The City is currently in compliance with all applicable regulations relating to water quality and has not been cited for any regulatory violations within the past five years. On December 14, 2004, the City obtained a 20-year WUP from SWFWMD for the surface water withdrawal from the Hillsborough River Reservoir and other secondary sources as previously noted. The WUP expires on December 14, 2024; the City plans to apply to renew the WUP for a permit duration of no less than 20 years. The City operates all its facilities and the DLTWTF according to permits issued by the regulatory agencies, and the City has maintained current permits for all facilities. To Carollo’s knowledge, the City is in compliance with all federal and state regulatory requirements relating to the provisions of water services, and there are no outstanding consent orders requiring corrective actions issued by any regulatory agency relating to any component of the water system. D-18 WATER AND WASTEWATER SYSTEMS REVENUE BONDS, SERIES 2024 SEPTEMBER 2024 / FINAL / CAROLLO CITY OF TAMPA CONSULTING ENGINEER’S REPORT 14 SECTION 4 WASTEWATER SYSTEM The City’s Wastewater Department owns and operates the Howard F.

D-19 WATER AND WASTEWATER SYSTEMS REVENUE BONDS, SERIES 2024 SEPTEMBER 2024 / FINAL / CAROLLO CITY OF TAMPA CONSULTING ENGINEER’S REPORT 15 4.2 Wastewater Treatment Plant The HFCAWTP is located on approximately 130 acres on Hillsborough Bay. The facility was constructed in the 1950s and is a Type I two-stage, high rate (pure oxygen and fine bubble aeration) activated sludge biological nitrification/denitrification domestic wastewater treatment plant. The HFCAWTP operates to provide customers with AWT and protect public health and the environment by removing biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), total suspended solids (TSS), and total nitrogen (TN) to meet permitted limits. The treatment process includes preliminary, primary, secondary, and tertiary treatment. Preliminary treatment begins when wastewater from the collection system enters HFCAWTP via five force mains (36 inches to 54 inches in diameter). The wastewater is aerated at Junction Chamber No. 1 to release hydrogen sulfide gas, and the resultant air emissions are treated at the odor control system using sodium hydroxide. Next, primary treatment occurs and includes removal of large debris from the wastewater via five screens at Screen and Grit Buildings No. 1 and No. 2. Then, the wastewater flows to eight primary settling tanks and reduces BOD and TSS loading to the secondary treatment process. Secondary treatment involves the two-stage biological process where wastewater is pumped via the main pumping station to six high purity oxygen (HPO) reactors to remove carbonaceous BOD (CBOD) and suspended solids. A mixed liquor is created in the reactors and is aerated by HPO that is produced onsite by two 60-ton-per-day cryogenic HPO generation systems. The biological process continues with gravity settling in 12 final settling tanks. The second biological process stage includes nitrification via four diffused air reactors, a blower building, and a nitrification pumping station. Then, the mixed liquor is settled in Final Settling Tanks No. 13 through 20 before tertiary treatment. Tertiary treatment includes denitrification, high-level disinfection, and dechlorination. Denitrification is accomplished by 32 coarse sand filters to reduce TSS and TN. The facility includes three chlorine contact tanks and uses chlorine gas for primary disinfection and sulfur dioxide for dechlorination. These processes, in conjunction with post-aeration, result in levels of TSS, TN, dissolved oxygen, and chlorine residual that meet permitted levels for surface water discharge and public access reuse. Ultimately, HFCAWTP produces highly treated effluent that is either discharged to Hillsborough Bay, distributed to reclaimed customers, or reused within the plant. The HFCAWTP manages residuals that are collected in each stage of the treatment process. Waste activated sludge (WAS) that is accumulated in Final Settling Tanks No. 1 through 12 is blended with polymer and thickened in two gravity thickeners. Then, thickened WAS is mixed with primary sludge from the primary settling tanks and the resultant is pumped to seven anaerobic digesters to produce stabilized biosolids, reduce pathogens, reduce biosolids mass by volatile solids destruction, and generate biogas as a usable byproduct. The resulting biosolids are stabilized for land application as Class B biosolids or disposed of in a Class I solid waste landfill. Carollo staff met with Wastewater Engineer Karloren Guzman during a site visit to the HFCAWTP in June 2023. The site visit was a limited condition assessment in areas for which the site could be visually inspected (aboveground facilities). Therefore, the site visit was not a complete assessment. Overall, based on the site visit and discussions with City staff, Carollo believes HFCAWTP to be in relatively good condition. D-20 WATER AND WASTEWATER SYSTEMS REVENUE BONDS, SERIES 2024 SEPTEMBER 2024 / FINAL / CAROLLO CITY OF TAMPA CONSULTING ENGINEER’S REPORT 16 4.3 Effluent and Residuals Management The HFCAWTP has a permitted capacity of 96.0 mgd and is operated to achieve AWT with high-level disinfected and dechlorinated effluent that is discharged directly to Hillsborough Bay via a 78-inch conduit. Additionally, HFCAWTP has two relief outfalls that are permitted for use when flows to the plant exceed approximately 100 mgd and there are extreme high tide conditions. The relief outfalls include a 72-inch and a 96-inch conduit to Ybor City Drain, which ultimately flows to Hillsborough Bay. Pursuant to FAC rule 62-4.244, all three outfall locations include a mixing zone for dichlorobromomethane and dibromochloromethane for the effluent discharge. Effluent from the HFCAWTP is required to meet certain water quality standards as outlined in its permit. The HFCAWTP must produce effluent with annual average concentrations of 5 milligrams per liter (mg/L) of CBOD, 5 mg/L of TSS, and 3 mg/L of TN. In FY 2023, the annual average CBOD, TSS, and TN concentrations were 2.0 mg/L, 0.8 mg/L, and 2.5 mg/L, respectively. The HFCAWTP staff also regularly test for other water quality characteristics such as chlorine residual, dissolved oxygen, and fecal coliform. FDEP has issued two Final Orders for Hillsborough Bay that establish TN load allocations for the HFCAWTP. The City’s TN load allocations to Hillsborough Bay are 213.2 tons per year on a five-year rolling average basis and 319.8 tons per year as an annual total. However, following execution of the agreement between the City and Hillsborough County, the allowable TN loading limits will be permanently revised to 213.6 tons per year as a five-year rolling average and 320.4 tons per year as an annual total. The five-year rolling average TN load for FY 2023 was 212.1 tons, which was about 99 percent of the allowable load allocation at that time. The annual total TN load for FY 2023 was 201.2 tons, which was about 63 percent of the allowable load allocation at that time. The agreement between the City and Hillsborough County would increase the City’s five-year rolling average TN allocation to 230.88 tons per year and the annual total to 346.32 tons per year for as long as Hillsborough County discharges wastewater to the City from the County’s Faulkenburg Advanced Wastewater Treatment Plant. In addition to surface water discharges, the HFCAWTP is permitted to send treated wastewater to certain sites to be reused for beneficial purposes. As identified in the permit, reuse sites and capacities include the following: A permitted 6 mgd AADF for slow-rate public access reuse to the City of Tampa public access reuse system. In FY 2023, about 3.9 mgd was sent to this system. A permitted capacity of 2.3 mgd AADF for industrial reuse as cooling water and irrigation at the City’s McKay Bay Waste-to-Energy Facility. In FY 2023, about 0.50 mgd was used at this site. A permitted industrial reuse system providing secondary treatment reclaimed water to a closed-loop system for heating purposes at Mosaic Fertilizer, LLC. In FY 2023, about 3.06 mgd was used at this site. In addition, the HFCAWTP may reuse treated water within the facility for irrigation or other purposes. The HFCAWTP sends Class B biosolids to approved locations for land application or disposes of them in a Class I solid waste landfill. The quantities of biosolids generated; received from source facilities; treated, distributed, and marketed; land applied; used as a biofuel or for bioenergy; transferred to another facility; and landfilled are monitored and recorded in accordance with state and federal requirements. In addition, land-applied biosolids are monitored to meet the requirements of each site, the Nutrient Management Plan, and FAC Chapter 62-640. D-21 WATER AND WASTEWATER SYSTEMS REVENUE BONDS, SERIES 2024 SEPTEMBER 2024 / FINAL / CAROLLO CITY OF TAMPA CONSULTING ENGINEER’S REPORT 17 4.4 Wastewater Collection The wastewater collection system includes approximately 1,252 miles of gravity lines, 281 miles of force mains, 29,292 manholes, 229 pump stations, and 6,654 valves and cleanouts. These totals are for active infrastructure elements owned by the City of Tampa based on publicly available geospatial data from the City of Tampa’s GeoHub website. The larger pump stations have onsite backup power supply and odor control systems, and the City owns several portable generators in case of power failure at smaller pump stations. Additionally, all pump stations are equipped with remote terminal units and monitored through the supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) system. The 1,252 miles of gravity lines range in diameter from 2 to 72 inches and are mostly made of PVC and vitrified clay. The 281 miles of force mains range in diameter from 0.75 to 96 inches and are mostly made of ductile iron and PVC. The City’s PIPES program aims to proactively replace and rehabilitate aging piping that often results in line breaks. Table 6 lists the lengths of wastewater mains (force mains and gravity lines) by diameter.

Over the past five years, the historical average number of wastewater accounts has increased. Similarly, the total annual average volume of wastewater treated has increased gradually but has fluctuated somewhat due to operational changes, variations in rainfall, and City efforts to reduce inflow and infiltration. In FY 2023, the average daily flow was 57.5 mgd. Table 7 summarizes the estimated average wastewater accounts and average daily flow based on FY 2017 to FY 2023 data as provided by the City. Table 7 Historical Average Wastewater Accounts and Daily Flow Fiscal Year Average Wastewater Accounts Average Daily Flow, mgd 2017 105,403 57.1 2018 105,329 57.2 2019 107,320 61.0 2020 105,081(1) 56.0 2021 105,943 59.9 2022 106,511 59.5 2023 107,252 57.5 Notes: (1) The number of accounts was reduced due to City’s implementation of new billing system on March 1, 2019, that reorganized classes of customers within each system. Flows are expected to increase as the wastewater system grows and the customer base expands. As part of their permitting requirements, the City developed wastewater flow projections through the 2035 planning horizon. These projections are for the calendar year and are from the City’s latest Capacity Analysis Report3. Table 8 shows the average daily flow and 3-month maximum daily flow projections through 2035. Table 8 Projected Average and 3-Month Maximum Daily Flows Calendar Year Projected Average Daily Flow, mgd Projected 3-Month Maximum Average Daily Flow, mgd 2025 66.1 79.4 2030 70.0 84.0 2035 73.8 88.6 The average daily flow and 3-month maximum average daily flow projections for 2035 are 73.8 mgd and 88.6 mgd, respectively. The HFCAWTP is currently permitted for an AADF capacity of 96.0 mgd. Although the wastewater flow projections show that the HFCAWTP will be able to continue operating within permitted flow limits through 2035, the City’s master plan identifies the need for upgrades and the equipment replacements to maintain continued operation and reliability. Based on these projections, the existing capacities, and the planned and ongoing improvement projects, the City should have sufficient capacity to meet its anticipated service needs through 2035. Projects to improve facility processes are detailed in the Howard F. Curren AWTP Phase 2 Master Plan Report4 and outlined in the following subsection. 3 Arcadis, 2020.

The HFCAWTP was issued its most recent NPDES permit renewal (FL0020940-025) in March 2021, and it will expire in March 2026. The HFCAWTP is properly permitted and is in compliance with all FDEP regulations unless noted otherwise. The City was party to a negotiated short form consent order (FDEP Office of General Counsel file #22-2071) on February 9, 2023, with regards to 14 unauthorized discharges of approximately 24,388 gallons of untreated wastewater impacting surface waters, three discharges of approximately 67,710 gallons of public access quality water, 13 discharges of approximately 30,999 gallons of untreated wastewater not impacting surface waters, and 15 discharges of 14,220 gallons of untreated wastewater to the ground over the period from September 2021 through September 2022. Under the terms of the consent order, the City was subject to either a penalty of $89,878.38 or an in-kind project for environmental enhancement, environmental restoration, or capital/facility improvements with an equivalent cost of at least $134,817.57. The City responded with an in-kind project proposal sent on March 6, 2023, and approved by the FDEP on April 10, 2023. The in-kind project is underway. The City received a Warning Letter (WL24-171DW29SWD) from FDEP on September 4, 2024 for unpermitted sanitary sewer overflows totaling approximately 343,865 gallons on August 5, 2024 associated with Hurricane Debby. FDEP will be initiating formal enforcement proceedings following investigation and resolution. D-25 WATER AND WASTEWATER SYSTEMS REVENUE BONDS, SERIES 2024 SEPTEMBER 2024 / FINAL / CAROLLO CITY OF TAMPA CONSULTING ENGINEER’S REPORT 21 SECTION 5 FINDINGS AND CONCLUSIONS The following conclusions were made based on the considerations, assumptions, and analyses summarized in this report. These conclusions represent opinions based on this report as a whole and are judgments based exclusively on the presented information. The report should be read in its entirety. The City should be able to retain and renew current permits for the System so long as operations, maintenance, and permit reporting continue as demonstrated in the past five-year period. To Carollo’s knowledge, the City is in compliance with all federal and state regulatory requirements relating to the provisions of water and wastewater services, and there are no other outstanding orders requiring corrective actions issued by any regulatory agency relating to any component of the currently owned System aside from what is included in this report. Based on the water facility capacities, planned facility expansions, and the anticipated water demands in this report, the City has sufficient water supplies to meet its anticipated service needs through at least 2035. The planned facility expansion projects will increase the permitted capacity from 120.0 mgd to 140.0 mgd and have CIP funds included for FYs 2024 through 2029. Based on the City’s permitted access to several water supply sources and its ASR system, the City can adeptly manage and respond to seasonal water supply challenges. As a member government of TBW, the City can purchase potable water from TBW when its water supply resources have been exhausted and continue to meet its current and future water demands. The City has a diverse portfolio of water supply to serve its water customers now and into the future. Based on available wastewater treatment facility capacities and anticipated wastewater flow projections, the City’s facilities will have sufficient wastewater treatment capacity to treat anticipated flows through at least 2035. Based on aboveground inspections of the City facilities and discussions with City staff, the existing facilities appear to be in overall relatively good condition. The facilities are in comparable condition to facilities of similar age. The water and wastewater facilities require some improvements and projects are underway to address these needs. The System facilities appear adequately operated and maintained, and the City is taking steps to continue prudent utility practice as described throughout this report. Therefore, the City appears to be capable of providing sufficient and reliable water and wastewater service to its customers through the years pertinent to the 2024 Bonds. The City’s CIP projects are necessary and adequate to meet the current regulatory requirements and to provide reliable water and wastewater service to the City’s existing customers, and to provide adequate reserve capacity for the anticipated growth in utility customers, as discussed in this report.

Maitland Avenue, Suite 300, Maitland, FL 32751 www.raftelis.com September 17, 2024 The Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council City of Tampa 306 E. Jackson Street Tampa, FL 33602 Subject: Financial Feasibility Report – Water and Wastewater Systems Revenue Bonds, Series 2024 Ladies and Gentlemen: Presented herein is our financial feasibility report for inclusion in the Official Statement that summarizes our analyses, studies and conclusions with regard to the proposed issuance by the City of Tampa, Florida (the “City”) of approximately $234.4 million[1] aggregate par amount of its Water and Wastewater Systems Revenue Bonds, Series 2024 (the “Series 2024 Bonds”). The City plans to issue the Series 2024 Bonds to: i) finance and/or reimburse the costs of certain capital improvements to the City’s Water and Wastewater Systems (the “System”) in order to improve the health, safety and welfare of the City’s inhabitants, such capital improvements being generally described as the “Series 2024 Project”; and ii) pay certain costs and expenses relating to the issuance and sale of the Series 2024 Bonds. After considering an estimated bond premium of $27.8 million and issuance costs, the Series 2024 Bonds are projected to fund approximately $259.8 million of capital improvements. The 2024 Bonds are being issued pursuant to the authority of and in full compliance with the Constitution and laws of the State of Florida, including, particularly, Chapter 166, Florida Statutes, the municipal charter of the City and other applicable provisions of law (collectively, the “Act”), and Resolution No. 88-1435, adopted by the City Council (the “Council”) on August 4, 1988, as amended and supplemented (the “Original Bond Resolution”), and as particularly amended and restated in its entirety by Resolution No. 2011-609 adopted by the City Council on August 18, 2011, as it may be amended and supplemented from time to time, and as particularly supplemented by a resolution adopted by the City Council on September 5, 2024 (collectively the “Bond Resolution”). The Series 2024 Bonds are being issued pursuant to the Bond Resolution, therefore capitalized undefined terms referenced herein shall have the same meaning as ascribed thereto in the Bond Resolution. The Series 2024 Bonds are being issued on a parity (except as otherwise provided in the Bond Resolution) together with the Water and Sewer Systems Refunding Revenue Bonds, Series 2015 (the “Series 2015 Bonds”), the Water and Wastewater Systems Revenue Bond, Series 2016 (the “Series 2016 Bond”), the Water and Wastewater Systems Revenue Bonds, Series 2020A (the “Series 2020A Bonds”), the Taxable Water and Wastewater Systems Refunding Revenue Bonds, Series 2020B (the “Series 2020B Bonds”), and the Water and Wastewater Systems Revenue Bonds, Series 2022A (Green Bonds) and Water and Wastewater Systems Revenue Bonds, Series 2022B (collectively, the “Series 2022 Bonds,” and together with the Series 2015 Bonds, the Series 2016 Bond, the Series 2020A Bonds and [1] Preliminary estimate provided August 13, 2024; subject to change. E-2 The Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council City of Tampa September 17, 2024 Page 2 the Series 2020B Bonds, collectively referred to herein as the “Parity Bonds”). The Parity Bonds and any Additional Bonds hereafter issued pursuant to the Bond Resolution (including the Series 2024 Bonds) are collectively referred to as the “Bonds.” The primary purpose of this report is to summarize our estimates of the financial projections of the System including funding of the capital improvement projects identified by the City. As such, this report includes, among other things, discussions of: i) projected sales, customer growth and revenues; ii) the schedule of currently adopted rates and fees for utility service; iii) capital improvement projects and anticipated funding sources; and iv) overall historical and projected System financial operating results. The forecast of financial operating results includes projections of the System’s ability to meet the rate covenant requirements of the Bond Resolution. Raftelis Financial Consultants, Inc. (“Raftelis”) does not offer any opinion as to: i) the general condition of the System and compliance with regulations imposed by various agencies upon the System; and ii) the reasonableness of the estimated costs of the improvements anticipated to be funded during the period commencing October 1, 2023 through September 30, 2029 (the “Forecast Period”) (please refer to Appendix D, Consulting Engineer’s Report). The financial projections in this report, associated with the issuance of the Series 2024 Bonds, were based on discussions with and information provided by the management of the City, as well as certain assumptions and analyses made by us with respect to such financial projections. Our report includes a summary of our opinions and conclusions regarding the financial projections as well as the System’s ability to meet the debt service requirements of the System and the rate covenant in the Bond Resolution. Such opinions and conclusions are subject to the assumptions and considerations identified in the report and information obtained during preparation of the report. As such, this report should be read in its entirety with respect to such projections. Conclusions Based upon the principal considerations and assumptions and the results of our studies and analyses, as summarized in this report, which should be read in its entirety in conjunction with the following, we are of the opinion that: 1. The projected growth in System revenues for the Forecast Period is based on the adopted water and wastewater rates through Fiscal Year ending September 30, 2029. Please refer to the pages beginning on page 3 of this report for a detailed explanation of the City’s adopted rates. A 0.5% annual increase in revenue for customer growth was assumed for the Water and Wastewater Systems during the Forecast Period. The projected growth in System customers and applicable usage during the Forecast Period for the System represents reasonable and attainable projections based on discussions with the City and on recent trends in customers served / billed. 2. The projected Operating Expenses reflect the City’s current wage and salary plan and inflationary allowances for other Operating Expenses and as such represent reasonable and attainable projections based on discussions with the City and on recent trends in customers served/billed. 3. The Gross Revenues for the Forecast Period under the City adopted rates and charges should be sufficient to pay all projected Operating Expenses of the System, pay the estimated Annual Debt Service on all Bonds (including the Series 2024 Bonds and any Additional Bonds assumed for the Forecast Period), pay the E-3 The Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council City of Tampa September 17, 2024 Page 3 Subordinated Indebtedness including the FDEP Loans, make all additional deposits as required by the Bond Resolution, and meet the rate covenant of the Bond Resolution. 4. The projected debt service coverage of the System as presented in this report should be in compliance with the rate covenant contained in the Bond Resolution and with respect to Subordinated Indebtedness including the FDEP Loans. The forecast of projected operating results is considered by Raftelis as being reasonable and attainable and provides a basis for the City to meet the rate covenant as delineated in the Bond Resolution. A summary of the assumptions and considerations relied upon in the development of the forecast of projected operating results are included herein. This report summarizes the results of our studies and analyses up to the date of this report. Prospective purchasers of the Series 2024 Bonds should not rely upon the information contained in this report for a current description of any matters set forth herein as of any date subsequent to the date of this report. Raftelis did not perform an audit of the financial books and records of the System, but relied upon information, assumptions, and projections provided by City staff and others. There will usually be differences between the forecast and actual results, because events and circumstances frequently do not occur as expected. Those differences may be material. We have no responsibility to update this report for events and circumstances occurring after the date of this report. Respectfully submitted, RAFTELIS FINANCIAL CONSULTANTS, INC. Henry L.

In preparation of this report, Raftelis has relied upon financial, statistical, and operational data provided by the City that has been derived from operating and financial reports and records prepared and provided by the City, including information contained in the Annual Comprehensive Financial Reports (“ACFR”) prepared and published by the City. While we believe the sources of such information, assumptions, and projections to be reasonable for the purposes of this report, we offer no assurances with respect thereto. There will usually be differences between the forecast and actual results, because events and circumstances frequently do not occur as expected. Those differences may be material. We have no responsibility to update this report for events and circumstances occurring after the date of this report. General The City of Tampa is a municipal corporation of the State of Florida governed by the State Constitution, the general laws of the State of Florida, and the current Charter of the City of Tampa originally adopted in 1975 as subsequently amended from time to time. The City is the largest city in Hillsborough County (the “County”), is the County seat and is the third most populous city in Florida. Based on information provided by the City, the City’s resident population was approximately 403,364. During the Fiscal Year ended September 30, 2023 (the most recently completed Fiscal Year of the City whereby the Fiscal Year encompasses the 12-month period October 1 through September 30), the City provided service to approximately 131,452 average water accounts and approximately 107,252 average wastewater accounts. The City’s customers consist of residential, non-residential/mixed use, and irrigation, which are located both within and outside the City limits. The remainder of this report provides a summary of the existing rates, fees and charges for water and wastewater service rendered by the City, a discussion of the recent historical and projected customer statistics, a presentation of the capital improvement funding plan identified by City management, and a discussion of the historical and projected financial operating results of the System. (Remainder of page intentionally left blank) E-10 Financial Feasibility Report – Water and Wastewater Systems Revenue Bonds, Series 2024 3 Rates, Fees, and Charges GENERAL As previously mentioned, the Series 2024 Bonds will be issued pursuant to the Bond Resolution. The presentation of the future ability to meet the rate covenant as reflected in this report is based on the provisions of the Bond Resolution. The Bond Resolution identifies the debt service coverage requirements (rate covenant), generally, as follows: “The City covenants to fix, establish, maintain, and collect such rates, fees, and charges for the product, services and facilities of the System, and to revise the same from time to time whenever necessary, so that the Net Revenues when combined with Connection Fees (also known as impact fees) will be sufficient in each Fiscal Year to provide: (a) 120% of the Annual Debt Service becoming due in each Fiscal Year; provided: i) Net Revenues shall be adequate at all times to pay 100% of (A) the Annual Debt Service becoming due in such Fiscal Year, (B) any amounts required to be deposited into the Reserve Account, if any, and (C) any amounts required to be repaid to the Water Connection Fees Fund and Wastewater Connection Fees Fund in accordance with the provisions of Sections 4.07(A) and 4.08(A) of the Bond Resolution.” WATER AND WASTEWATER RATES The rates for water and wastewater service are set by the City Council; the establishment of rates is not under the jurisdiction of the Florida Public Service Commission (“FPSC”). The existing rates for the System were established by Resolution Nos. 2019-694 and 2019-695 (the “Rate Resolution”), respectively as approved by the City Council on September 5, 2019, resulting in a series of annual rate adjustments through October 1, 2039. The previously adopted Fiscal Year ending September 30, 2024 rates (the “2024 Utility Rates”) were effective October 1, 2023. Subsequent water and wastewater rates have been adopted by the City Council pursuant to the Rate Resolution and were assumed to be effective on and after October 1 of each subsequent year during the Forecast Period. The 2024 Utility Rates charged to the City’s customers for water service include: i) a volumetric or usage charge that is based on metered water consumption where such charge increases at certain usage intervals (blocks); and ii) a minimum monthly charge based on the customer’s meter size. For the wastewater service, residential customers pay a usage charge based on metered water consumption limited by a sewer maximum amount (a sewer cap), which is based on each customer’s historic usage relationships. Non-residential customers pay a wastewater usage charge based on 100% of metered water usage. The City measures water usage and bills for such usage in units equal to 100 cubic feet of water (“CCF”), which is equivalent to 748 gallons of water. Beginning with the adoption of the Rate Resolution, the City established a monthly base charge for water and wastewater service. The adopted monthly base charges that were effective on and after October 1, 2023 equal $6.00 per month per equivalent residential unit (“ERU”) or metered connection for each utility service or $12.00 a month for a typical single-family residential customer with water and wastewater service. The monthly base charges for water and wastewater service as adopted, will increase by $1.00 per ERU per fiscal year through October 1, 2033 when the adopted monthly base charges shall equal $16.00 per ERU for each utility service, or $32.00 per combined water and wastewater services. The monthly base charge is also applicable to any separately metered irrigation service.

[2] Wastewater rates for outside City customers are approximately, but not more than, 1.25 times the inside City Rate. [3] For residential service, the City limits the usage charged based on metered water use equal to the sewer maximum amount. This value is calculated uniquely for each residential account but averages approximately five (5) CCF per month. CCF equals 100 cubic feet of water, which is equivalent to 748 gallons. Reclaimed Water Fees The City makes reclaimed water available to residents and businesses in parts of the South Tampa area for irrigation and industrial purposes. The current usage rate is $1.20 per CCF pursuant to Resolution No. 2007-752, which was adopted by the City Council on August 9, 2007 and became effective on the first billing cycle in October 2007. In addition to the usage rate, customers pay an application fee and meter installation fee at the initiation of reclaimed water service. The current fees are shown in the table below: (Remainder of page intentionally left blank) E-14 Financial Feasibility Report – Water and Wastewater Systems Revenue Bonds, Series 2024 7 Existing Reclaimed Water Fees Meter Size Application Fee Meter Installation 5/8” × 3/4”, 3/4” $15 $375 1” 15 445 1-1/2” 70 695 2” 70 890 Water Meter Installation and Connection Charges The City has adopted a schedule for water meter installation and meter connection service charges in order to recover the cost of physically connecting water customers to the System’s potable water utility facilities (the “Water System”) and to recover distribution system costs. The charges are based on the customer’s peak flow rate and/or meter size to recognize differences in the cost of materials such as meters, or the amount of time generally spent on the installation of the service and capacity of the distribution system. In addition to water meter connection and installation charges, the City also charges an application fee. These charges are considered to be other operating revenues and are not considered Water Connection Fees (also known as water impact fees or water capacity fees) for purposes of the Bond Resolution. The current charges as adopted pursuant to Resolution No. 2005-1165 are as follows: Water Application and Meter Installation Charges Meter Size Peak Flow Rate (gpm) Application Fee Meter Installation 5/8” × 3/4”, 3/4” 0 – 20 $50 $665 1” 21 – 50 50 715 1-1/2” 51 – 100 70 990 2” 101 – 160 70 1,035 Water Meter Connection Charges Meter Specifications Buildings Existing Prior to 10/1/97 New Construction Size Flow Rate (gpm) Inside City Outside City Inside City Outside City 3/4” 0 – 20 $2,800 $2,800 $2,800 $3,500 1” 21 – 50 7,000 7,000 7,000 8,750 1-1/2” 51 – 75 10,500 10,500 10,500 13,125 1-1/2” 76 – 100 14,000 14,000 14,000 17,500 2” 101 – 125 17,500 17,500 17,500 21,000 2” 126 – 150 21,000 21,000 21,000 26,250 2” or 3” 151 – 200 28,000 28,000 28,000 35,000 3” 201 – 300 42,000 42,000 42,000 52,500 3” or 4” 301 – 500 70,000 70,000 70,000 87,500 4” 501 – 750 105,000 105,000 105,000 131,250 4” 751 – 1,000 140,000 140,000 140,000 175,000 6” 1,001 – 1,500 210,000 210,000 210,000 262,500 6” or 8” 1,501 – 3,000 420,000 420,000 420,000 525,000 E-15 Financial Feasibility Report – Water and Wastewater Systems Revenue Bonds, Series 2024 8 Water and Wastewater Service Deposits The current schedule of initial customer deposits for water and wastewater service is pursuant to Resolution No. 2005-863 adopted by the City Council on July 21, 2005, and is shown in the table below: Customer Deposits for Water and Sewer Service Metered Service Meter Size Water Wastewater 5/8” $45.00 $45.00 1” 60.00 60.00 1-1/2” 105.00 105.00 2” 150.00 150.00 3” 300.00 300.00 4” 450.00 450.00 6” 900.00 900.00 8” 1,500.00 1,500.00 Unit Count Unmetered Sanitary Sewer Service per Number of Units 1 $45.00 2 – 10 60.00 11 – 100 105.00 101 – 200 150.00 201 – 400 300.00 401 – 600 450.00 601 – 800 600.00 Over 800 900.00 Other: Service Stations $60.00 Laundromats 70.00 Warehouses 60.00 Water and Wastewater Connection Fees Customers wanting to connect to the System’s water and wastewater utility facilities pay a Connection Fee (also known as an impact fee or a capacity fee) pursuant to the Bond Resolution. This fee is based on the size and number of water meters providing potable water service and pays for capital improvements associated with water and/or wastewater treatment capacity and large transmission pipelines. The City charges all development and/or redevelopment a Connection Fee to recover the allocable capital cost of the water and/or wastewater capacity assigned to such new customer/property. Generally under Florida law, the use of Connection Fees is limited to: i) payment for System expansion-related facilities; or ii) payment of debt service for obligations issued to finance or refinance the acquisition or construction of System expansion-related facilities. Based on discussions with City staff, all of the estimated Connection Fee revenues for the Forecast Period are considered as being legally available to pay E-16 Financial Feasibility Report – Water and Wastewater Systems Revenue Bonds, Series 2024 9 for System expansion-related debt service. The current Connection Fees as adopted pursuant to Ordinance No. 2020-104 are shown below: Connection Fees Water Connection Fees (Effective March 1, 2023) [1] Non-CIAC Areas, per ERU $1,713 CIAC Areas, per ERU 1,020 Affordable Housing 0 Wastewater Connection Fees (Effective March 1, 2021) [2] Per Wastewater ERU $1,237 Affordable Housing 0 [1] Pursuant to Ordinance No. 2020-104, the current Water Connection Fee became effective March 1, 2023. [2] Pursuant to Ordinance No. 2020-104, the current Wastewater Connection Fee became effective March 1, 2021. Additionally, the City has adopted a schedule for water meter installation and meter connection service charges in order to recover the cost of physically connecting water customers to the System’s potable water utility facilities and to recover distribution system costs. In addition to water meter installation and connection charges, the City also charges an application fee. These charges are considered to be other operating revenues and are not considered Water Connection Fees for purposes of the Bond Resolution. Miscellaneous Service Charges In addition to charging user fees for monthly water and wastewater service, the City also charges fees for certain specifically requested miscellaneous services. The revenues from miscellaneous charges reduce the level of expenditures or revenue requirements funded from user fees. Generally, the miscellaneous fees are based on the specific cost of the services requested. The City’s current miscellaneous service charges are as follows: Water Miscellaneous Fees and Charges Application Fee Connection Fee Annual Service Fee Fire Protection Charges: [1] Fire Flow Rate (gpm): 0 – 50 $70.00 $3,950.00 $10.00 51 – 100 70.00 5,140.00 10.00 101 – 150 70.00 5,990.00 10.00 151 – 300 70.00 7,780.00 30.00 301 – 500 70.00 9,343.00 90.00 501 – 750 70.00 10,994.00 90.00 751 – 1000 70.00 12,255.00 90.00 1001 – 1500 70.00 14,280.00 200.00 Table continued on following page.

Rate Comparisons Tables 1 through 3 at the end of this report provide a comparison of the monthly cost of providing water and wastewater service for a 5/8-inch × 3/4-inch or smaller water meter at various usage levels calculated under the rates for the System. For comparison purposes, Tables 1 through 3 include a summary of utility bills under the 2024 Utility Rates and all adopted rates for the subsequent years over the Forecast Period. Also included in the comparison are bills calculated under the rates of other neighboring Florida utilities effective on or after July 31, 2024. The monthly bills for the various Florida utilities used for the comparison are exclusive of local taxes. Additionally, for municipally owned utility systems, such utilities may apply to customers located outside the corporate limits of such municipality, a surcharge of up to 25% when compared to the rates for service to customers located within the corporate limits as allowed pursuant to Section 180.191, Florida Statutes. The 5/8-inch × 3/4-inch meter or smaller comparison was prepared for this report since this represents the majority of the System’s water and wastewater residential customers and the majority of the customers for the other utilities reflected in the comparisons. The City’s adopted rates for the average customer usage served by the City through Fiscal Year ending September 30, 2029 as shown on the next page are lower than the current rates charged by most of the other neighboring utilities for the same level of water and wastewater service. A comparison of water and wastewater rates at the monthly consumption level of 6,000 gallons (the average usage of the City’s single-family residential customer is eight (8) CCF or approximately 6,000 monthly gallons) between the City and a group of similar utilities is shown as follows: (Remainder of page intentionally left blank) E-19 Financial Feasibility Report – Water and Wastewater Systems Revenue Bonds, Series 2024 12 Single Metered Residential Service for a 5/8" or 3/4" Meter at 6,000 Gallons [1] Description Water Wastewater Total City of Tampa [2]: Existing Rates $31.74 $33.30 $65.04 Adopted Rates – FY2025 35.56 35.10 70.66 Adopted Rates – FY2026 38.26 36.95 75.21 Adopted Rates – FY2027 39.58 38.80 78.38 Adopted Rates – FY2028 40.90 40.70 81.60 Adopted Rates – FY2029 42.22 42.60 84.82 Florida Counties: Hillsborough County $42.91 $55.45 $98.36 Manatee County 28.76 65.71 94.47 Miami-Dade County 23.37 45.23 68.60 Pasco County 24.08 62.07 86.15 Pinellas County 36.73 54.98 91.70 Polk County 26.09 75.02 101.11 Sarasota County 39.34 84.95 124.29 Florida Cities: Clearwater $60.69 $75.42 $136.11 Jacksonville (JEA) 20.40 45.96 66.36 Lakeland 24.78 48.55 73.33 Orlando / OUC 16.00 56.88 72.88 Plant City 22.76 58.66 81.42 St. Petersburg 47.90 82.36 130.26 Tallahassee [3] 25.52 69.56 95.08 Temple Terrace 21.83 72.70 94.53 Survey Average $30.74 $63.57 $94.31 [1] Unless otherwise noted, amounts shown reflect residential rates in effect on or after July 31, 2024 and are exclusive of taxes, surcharges or franchise fees, if any, and reflect rates charged for inside the City service area.

Based on customer billing data provided by the City, the average number of customers served by service area and customer classification during the Fiscal Year 2023 for the Water and Wastewater Systems is as set forth below: Existing Water and Wastewater Customers and Sales – Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2023 [1] Water System Wastewater System Customer Class Average Accounts Percent of Total Accounts Sales (CCF) Percent of Total Sales Average Accounts Percent of Total Accounts Billed Units (CCF) Percent of Total Units Inside City Service: Residential 90,159 68.59% 15,306,081 42.98% 81,901 76.36% 5,034,035 22.41% Non-residential / Mixed Use 8,344 6.35% 8,131,732 22.83% 12,760 11.90% 10,299,035 45.85% Irrigation 690 0.52% 417,478 1.17% N/A N/A N/A N/A Total Inside City Service 99,193 75.46% 23,855,291 66.98% 94,661 88.26% 15,333,070 68.26% Outside City Service: Residential 29,230 22.24% 7,314,166 20.54% 10,521 9.81% 683,368 3.04% Non-residential / Mixed Use 2,907 2.21% 4,357,562 12.24% 2,069 1.93% 6,445,804 28.70% Irrigation 123 0.09% 86,266 0.24% N/A N/A N/A N/A Total Outside City Service 32,260 24.54% 11,757,994 33.02% 12,590 11.74% 7,129,172 31.74% Combined City Services: Residential 119,388 90.82% 22,620,247 63.52% 92,423 86.17% 5,717,403 25.45% Non-residential / Mixed Use 11,251 8.56% 12,489,293 35.07% 14,829 13.83% 16,744,839 74.55% Irrigation 813 0.62% 503,744 1.41% N/A N/A N/A N/A Total System 131,452 100.00% 35,613,284 100.00% 107,252 100.00% 22,462,242 100.00% Amounts may not total due to rounding. [1] Amounts estimated based on detailed customer and billing statistics for Fiscal Year ended September 30, 2023 as provided by the City. Based on the rate and billing codes developed by the City, average accounts and sales for apartment complexes are included within the residential class of service for the Water System and as non-residential / mixed use within the Wastewater System. As can be seen above, residential customer accounts represent the predominant class in terms of the number of water and wastewater customers served (approximately 91% of the total water accounts) but reflect approximately 64% of the overall System water requirements. The remaining customers and sales comprise non-residential/mixed use and irrigation as shown in the table above. HISTORICAL AND PROJECTED CUSTOMERS AND SALES The City provided customer billing and statistical reports to summarize the historical customers and sales information for the Water and Wastewater Systems for Fiscal Years Ended September 30, 2019 through and E-21 Financial Feasibility Report – Water and Wastewater Systems Revenue Bonds, Series 2024 14 including Fiscal Year ended September 30, 2023 (the “Historical Period”), which were compared with the audited revenues reported for each period. As shown below, the City’s water sales increased slightly greater than the number of active customer accounts. On March 1, 2019, the City implemented a new billing system that reorganized the classes of customers within each system and the associated metered services, which allowed the City to begin assessing a minimum monthly base charge per ERU on and after November 1, 2019. The improvements implemented by the City have enhanced the System’s ability to account for active service connections within the utility billing system. Accounts as provided in this report reflect each metered service on or after March 1, 2019 that is subject to a minimum monthly base charge. As such, during this implementation process by the City, account numbers were reduced. The following tabulation summarizes the recent historical Water System customer and sales activity as follows: Historical Water Customers and Sales [1] Fiscal Year Ending September 30, Average Accounts Water Sales (CCF) Average Monthly Consumption Billed per Account (CCF) 2019 [2] 141,324 32,308,357 19.1 2020 129,067 32,443,458 21.0 2021 128,811 34,082,374 22.1 2022 129,721 33,756,518 21.7 2023 131,452 35,613,284 22.6 Annual Average Compounded Growth Rate 2019 to 2023 -1.8% 2.5% 4.3% 2020 to 2023 0.6% 3.2% 2.5% [1] Amounts based on detailed customer and billing statistics as provided by the City. [2] On March 1, 2019, the City implemented a new billing system. (Remainder of page intentionally left blank) E-22 Financial Feasibility Report – Water and Wastewater Systems Revenue Bonds, Series 2024 15 The following table summarizes the recent customer and billed sales activity for the Wastewater System. Historical Wastewater Customers and Sales [1] Fiscal Year Ending September 30, Average Accounts Billed Flow (CCF) [2] Average Monthly Consumption Billed per Account (CCF) 2019 [3] 107,320 22,259,982 17.3 2020 [4] 105,081 20,212,193 16.0 2021 105,943 21,491,852 16.9 2022 106,511 21,709,845 17.0 2023 107,252 22,462,242 17.5 Annual Average Compounded Growth Rate 2019 to 2023 0.0% 0.2% 0.2% 2020 to 2023 0.7% 3.6% 2.9% [1] Amounts based on detailed customer and billing statistics as provided by the City. [2] Amount of units billed are impacted by a seasonal sewer cap or maximum bill that is calculated for each single-family residential customer, which may not be representative of the actual annual average water used by the customer. Therefore, such flows are not directly comparable to the historical water sales provided for the Water System. [3] In 2019, the City treated approximately 509,524 CCF of Hillsborough County's wastewater flows. The service was temporary and the amounts were removed from the sales projections beginning in Fiscal Year 2020. [4] On March 1, 2019, the City implemented a new billing system. Based on discussions with City staff, the City is anticipating approximately 0.5% annual customer and sales growth from new development and redevelopment for the Forecast Period. The City also anticipates additional changes to System revenues over the next several years resulting from the following anticipated conditions as discussed below. Temporary Wholesale Wastewater Service Hillsborough County (previously defined as the “County”) has requested temporary wholesale wastewater services to be provided by the City. Based on a contract between the City and the County, the wholesale agreement allows for the delivery and treatment of up to 2.5 million gallons per day (“MGD”) of County sewer flows for a period of three to five years. Applicable charges to the County will be based on the current outside City rates, including the monthly base charge, as authorized in the Rate Resolution. For the purpose of this study, we have estimated additional and temporary wastewater revenues for the Fiscal Years ending September 30, 2025 through and including September 30, 2027. The estimated revenues and associated collection and treatment expenses related to providing temporary wholesale service to the County were calculated based on 75% of the maximum flows. Such wholesale wastewater service is estimated to provide approximately $5.3 million in annual (net) revenues during the three-year service period that was assumed in this study. Prospective Sale of Palm River Service Area The City has evaluated the feasibility of selling the Palm River Service Area (“Palm River System”) to the County and the conditions precedent for such sale is expected to be allowable under the Bond Resolution. The Palm River System comprises approximately 2,520 water connections and 1,482 wastewater connections. While a contract for E-23 Financial Feasibility Report – Water and Wastewater Systems Revenue Bonds, Series 2024 16 sale does not exist between the parties, the City completed a system valuation study on April 8, 2022 that provides a conclusion of value equal to $55.0 million. Based on discussions with City staff, early negotiations to develop a draft agreement are in progress, which includes an anticipated sales price of $55.0 million that may be paid over a period of up to five (5) years, or in lump sum. For the purpose of this study, we have recognized five annual installments of not more than $11.0 million per year for the Fiscal Years ending September 30, 2025 through and including September 30, 2029. Such amounts are assumed to be deposited into the City’s capital construction funds and used to construct System capital improvements during the Forecast Period. Based on the anticipated sale and transfer of the Palm River System, we reduced the effective, annual operating results summarized in this study by approximately $13.7 million per year beginning in Fiscal Year ending September 30, 2025. Such adjustments account for the reduction and loss of income, as well as an estimated decrease (offset) in operation and maintenance expenses. Based on information provided by City staff, the following discussion points highlight several reasons the City may sell the Palm River System to the County: Water System 1. Main breaks per mile are higher than average in the Palm River System, while the operation and maintenance costs are above System average. 2. The reduction in water demands will free up withdrawal amounts against the 82 MGD water use permit limit. This will allow more water to be stored in the aquifer storage and recovery system and will offset demands for new water resources required by new customer growth. 3. The City should be able to defer additional full-time employees needed to maintain new distribution system pipelines scheduled to come online in the next few years. 4. There are at least six (6) capital improvement projects within the next 10 years that total more than $10 million that were removed from the Water System’s capital improvement program. Such improvements are anticipated to be implemented by the County under County ownership. 5. Water quality will improve in areas where dead end lines will be eliminated. 6. The sales proceeds will help fund other capital improvement needs. Wastewater System 1. Pump station operators, mechanics and electricians currently maintaining the seven (7) pump stations in the Palm River System can be reallocated to other areas of need. 2. The City should be able to defer additional full-time employees needed to operate and maintain new pump stations scheduled to come online in the next few years. 3. A one-time cleaning of the Palm River System force main (not included in the current operation and maintenance costs) would be funded by the County under County ownership. (Remainder of page intentionally left blank) E-24 Financial Feasibility Report – Water and Wastewater Systems Revenue Bonds, Series 2024 17 4. Required collection system lining and pump station rehabilitation identified in the City’s collection system master plan have been excluded from the City’s capital plan. Such needed maintenance would be funded by the County under County ownership. 5. The sales proceeds will help fund other capital improvement needs. Based on subsequent discussions with City staff, it now appears likely that it will be several years before the County will be able to accept and serve the entire Palm River System. For example, there may be a period of time where the City may have to continue to accept and treat a level of wastewater flows on behalf of the Palm River System. Such accommodation may help to offset the estimated decrease in the annual (net) revenues that have been assumed for this prospective transaction. In our opinion, any temporary service provided by the City to the County to help facilitate the transfer of the Palm River System should only improve the projected financial position estimated in this study for the Forecast Period. No other adjustments or contingencies related to the potential sale of the Palm River System have been recognized in our presentation of financial results. Based on the anticipated annual customer and sales growth of approximately 0.5% per year anticipated from new development, the opportunity to provide temporary wholesale wastewater service to the County, and the prospective sale of the Palm River System to the County, the following tabulations summarize the projected water and wastewater customers and sales over the Forecast Period: Projected Water Customers and Sales Fiscal Year Ending September 30, Average Accounts Retail Water Sales (CCF) Average Monthly Consumption Billed per Account (CCF) 2024 132,109 35,790,826 22.6 2025 130,418 34,509,071 22.1 2026 131,082 34,689,158 22.1 2027 131,749 34,869,955 22.1 2028 132,420 35,051,882 22.1 2029 133,093 35,234,836 22.1 Annual Average Compounded Growth Rate 2024 to 2029 0.1% -0.3% -0.5% (Remainder of page intentionally left blank) E-25 Financial Feasibility Report – Water and Wastewater Systems Revenue Bonds, Series 2024 18 Projected Wastewater Customers and Sales Fiscal Year Ending September 30, Average Accounts Billed Flow (CCF) Average Monthly Consumption Billed per Account (CCF) 2024 107,788 22,567,734 17.5 2025 106,951 22,454,848 17.5 2026 107,492 22,563,373 17.5 2027 108,037 22,672,406 17.5 2028 108,583 21,866,969 16.8 2029 109,133 21,976,997 16.8 Annual Average Compounded Growth Rate 2024 to 2029 0.2% -0.5% -0.8% The City completed a water and wastewater rate study in Fiscal Year 2019 and adopted a new rate schedule on September 5, 2019 as shown in the Rate Resolution which established water and wastewater rates that are adjusted annually through October 1, 2039. As discussed previously in this report, the 2024 Utility Rates were effective on or after October 1, 2023. Subsequent water and wastewater rates were adopted and are assumed to be implemented each October 1 thereafter over the Forecast Period. The following table summarizes the annual average increase in monthly rate revenues over the Forecast Period based on the implementation of the adopted rates: Adopted Annual Rate Increases for Fiscal Year Ending September 30, Description 2025 2026 2027 2028 2029 Water System 11.5% 6.9% 2.4% 2.4% 2.3% Wastewater System 4.4% 4.4% 4.2% 4.4% 4.1% Effective Date Oct. 1, 2024 Oct. 1, 2025 Oct. 1, 2026 Oct. 1, 2027 Oct. 1, 2028 In addition to operating revenues derived from monthly rates for service, the City collects miscellaneous fees and certain non-operating revenues that are used to offset the rate revenue requirements of the System. (Remainder of page intentionally left blank) E-26 Financial Feasibility Report – Water and Wastewater Systems Revenue Bonds, Series 2024 19 Based upon the City’s adopted rates for the Forecast Period, Gross Revenues, including miscellaneous charges and other revenues, are projected to increase from approximately $367.0 million to $436.6 million or 3.5% per year on average as shown below.

[1] Amounts derived from Table 4. Revenues based on existing (Fiscal Year 2024) rates that were effective on October 1,2023. Amounts reflect a loss of annual revenues beginning in Fiscal Year ending September 30, 2025 that may occur if the Palm River Service Area is sold to Hillsborough County. Amounts include increased annual revenues due to providing temporary wholesale wastewater service to Hillsborough County from Fiscal Years ending September 30, 2025 through 2027. SEE PRINCIPAL CONSIDERATIONS AND ASSUMPTIONS BEGINNING ON PAGE 29. [2] Amounts based on the adopted water and wastewater rates from October 1, 2024 through October 1, 2028 as provided in the Rate Resolution. [3] Other Revenues derived from Table 4 include cash investment earnings, cash capital contributions (excluding Connection Fees), miscellaneous income, and grant funds available for any lawful purpose and not otherwise restricted. The cash investment earnings are decreasing based on the projected cash flows for each fund as derived in Tables 9 and 10. Amounts exclude Connection Fees, capital grant revenues, gains on sale of assets, and unrealized gains on investments. [4] During Fiscal Year ended September 30, 2023, the System earned approximately $19 million from cash-basis interest earnings. The amount shown for Fiscal Year ending September 30, 2024 is based on current estimates assuming an average interest rate of 2.0%. Beginning in Fiscal Year ending September 30, 2025, interest income was assumed to be reduced based on an estimated average interest rate of 1% per year. The amount of income is projected to vary over time as reserve funds are used to pay for a portion of the proposed capital projects.

E-32 Financial Feasibility Report – Water and Wastewater Systems Revenue Bonds, Series 2024 25 FUNDING SOURCES FOR CAPITAL PROGRAM Based on an analysis of funds available to the City (e.g., operating reserves, annual rate revenues, capital construction fund reserves, etc.), the projected funding sources for the $1.83 billion water and wastewater projects include a combination of existing operating and construction fund reserves, proceeds of proposed future Additional Bonds, including the Series 2024 Bonds, and future net cash flow after payment of Bonds and Subordinated Indebtedness debt service payments and any other revenue requirements specified by the City. The projected net cash flow available for capital expenditures is based on the adopted water and wastewater rates over the Forecast Period. The following tabulation summarizes the planned funding sources over the Forecast Period: Summary of Projected Funding Sources for Capital Projects [1] Projected Fiscal Year Ending September 30, Description 2024 2025 2026 2027 2028 2029 Total Capital Funded from Rates (Use of Reserves) $0 $65,000,000 $45,000,000 $0 $0 $0 $110,000,000 Capital Funded from Rates (Current Year Revenues) 12,510,663 87,909,258 91,455,653 75,104,639 60,841,977 55,783,025 383,605,215 Use of Capital Construction Fund Reserves 72,200,000 133,890,626 39,202,294 11,000,000 11,000,000 11,000,000 278,292,920 Proposed Series 2024 Bonds 259,828,658 0 0 0 0 0 259,828,658 Future Bonds – Series 2025 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 Future Bonds – Series 2026 0 144,699,461 0 0 0 0 144,699,461 Future Bonds – Series 2027 0 0 145,086,500 0 0 0 145,086,500 Future Bonds – Series 2028 0 0 0 160,153,100 0 0 160,153,100 Future Bonds – Series 2029 0 0 0 0 182,110,389 0 182,110,389 Future Bonds – Series 2030 0 0 0 0 0 168,128,100 168,128,100 Total Water and Wastewater Capital Expenditures $344,539,321 $431,499,345 $320,744,447 $246,257,739 $253,952,366 $234,911,125 $1,831,904,343 Amounts may not total due to rounding. [1] Amounts derived from Tables 5 and 6 at the end of this report. As shown above, the City plans to fund capital projects over the Forecast Period with approximately $110.0 million (or 6%) from existing operating reserves and $278.3 million from existing capital construction fund reserves or 21% of the total capital plan, while funding 58% through proposed new Bonds and 21% of the plan on a pay-as-you-go basis paid for from the System’s net cash flow after payment of expenses and debt service. As discussed later in this report, this funding plan results in a level of working capital and unrestricted cash and invested reserves in excess of 300 days of Operating Expenses. Historical Operating Results GENERAL The historical operating results for the combined System are presented for the Fiscal Years ended September 30, 2019 through 2023 (“Historical Period”) and are shown in detail on Table 7 at the end of this report. The historical operating results presented for the Historical Period were prepared based on financial information compiled and provided by the City and information included in the audited ACFR of the City for the respective Fiscal Years shown. In general, the historical operating results have been set-forth in a manner consistent with the requirements of the E-33 Financial Feasibility Report – Water and Wastewater Systems Revenue Bonds, Series 2024 26 Bond Resolution relative to the determination of the Net Revenues of the System. Therefore, the amounts shown reflect certain differences in the presentation of the financial results when compared to the City’s ACFRs. Specifically, these differences relate to: i) the determination of Operating Expenses (i.e., interest, depreciation, amortization, payment in lieu of taxes, payment-in-lieu-of-franchise fees, and certain non-cash expenses, such as unrealized market losses on investments, are not recognized as Operating Expenses); and ii) the exclusion of certain non-cash revenues from Gross Revenues, such as contributed property and unrealized market gains on investments. SUMMARY OF HISTORICAL OPERATING RESULTS The historical operating results for the System are shown on Table 7 at the end of this report and are summarized below: Historical Operating Results and Debt Service Coverage Historical Fiscal Year Ending September 30, [1] Description 2019 2020 2021 2022 2023 Gross Revenues: Water and Wastewater Rate Revenue $229,533,936 $242,949,222 $262,123,408 $295,076,795 $330,141,432 Less Reserve for Rate Stabilization Fund [2] 0 0 (7,000,000) 0 (7,000,000) Other Revenues [3] 6,835,082 4,941,560 5,029,674 4,638,508 15,767,304 Total Gross Revenues $236,369,018 $247,890,782 $260,153,082 $299,715,303 $338,908,736 Operating Expenses: [4] Salaries and Employee Benefits [5] $50,313,860 $51,293,559 $56,521,153 $58,044,299 $65,054,864 Supplies and Materials 24,658,940 26,372,836 27,527,659 32,726,030 39,726,792 Contract Services 7,357,462 8,555,622 7,965,135 8,122,863 13,406,482 Other Services and Charges 39,204,536 43,704,137 42,285,047 46,854,661 56,826,656 Total Operating Expenses $121,534,798 $129,926,154 $134,298,994 $145,747,853 $175,014,794 Net Revenues Without Connection Fees $114,834,220 $117,964,628 $125,854,088 $153,967,450 $163,893,942 Connection Fees [6] 5,295,966 4,411,258 4,606,567 7,812,826 7,715,318 Net Revenues plus Connections Fees $120,130,186 $122,375,886 $130,460,655 $161,780,276 $171,609,260 Senior Lien Coverage: Senior Lien Annual Debt Service [7] $17,470,073 $19,141,863 $27,838,374 $31,822,448 $42,819,861 Test A [8] Coverage Ratio – Calculated [9] 6.88 6.39 4.69 5.08 4.01 Coverage Ratio – Required 1.20 1.20 1.20 1.20 1.20 Test B [8] Coverage Ratio – Calculated [10] 6.57 6.16 4.52 4.84 3.83 Coverage Ratio – Required 1.00 1.00 1.00 1.00 1.00 Table continued on following page.

Numbers may not add up due to rounding. Amounts shown derived from information provided in each respective Fiscal Year Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (“ACFR”) and other financial information provided by the City. [2] The Reserve for Rate Stabilization Fund is presented separately for more clarity. Pursuant to the Bond Resolution, when the City makes transfers to the Rate Stabilization Fund, the amounts are deducted from Gross Revenues. If amounts are used in a subsequent year, the transfers from the Rate Stabilization Fund are then added to Gross Revenues. Based on discussions with City staff, the total Rate Stabilization Fund amount of $34.0 million as of September 30, 2023 is reflected in the Operating Reserve Fund balance as summarized on Table 11. [3] Other Revenues include cash investment earnings, cash capital contributions (excluding Connection Fees), miscellaneous income, and grant funds available for any lawful purpose and not otherwise restricted. Amounts exclude Water and Wastewater Connection Fees, capital grant revenues, gains on sale of assets, and unrealized gains on investments. [4] Pursuant to the Bond Resolution, Operating Expenses do not include depreciation or amortization expenses, payment-in-lieu-of-taxes (“PILOT”), payment-in-lieu-of-franchise-fees (“PILOFF”), unrealized losses on investments, or any other loss that does not result in an expenditure of cash.

[6] Pursuant to the Bond Resolution, all Connection Fees are pledged to the repayment of the Bonds. Under Florida law, Connection Fees may only be used to pay debt service on Bonds that financed or refinanced expansion-related capital improvements. If Connection Fees are used to pay debt service on Bonds that were not expansion-related, the City is required to repay the applicable Connection Fees Fund from Net Revenues as provided in the Bond Resolution. Based on discussions with City staff, the City believes it has not applied any Connection Fees above the allowable level. Below are the actual amounts used over the Historical Period. Historical Fiscal Year Ending September 30, 2019 2020 2021 2022 2023 Actual Wastewater Connection Fees Used to Pay Debt Service $11,500,000 $3,000,000 $3,000,000 $3,000,000 $3,000,000 __________ [*] Amounts provided by City staff. As of September 30, 2023, the City retained approximately $20 million in the Connection Fee Funds. Table footnotes continued on following page. (Remainder of page intentionally left blank) E-35 Financial Feasibility Report – Water and Wastewater Systems Revenue Bonds, Series 2024 28 Table footnotes: (cont’d.) [7] For the purpose of debt service calculation, pursuant to the Bond Resolution, payments due on October 1 are considered to be due and payable on the immediately preceding September 30 for purposes of the definition of Annual Debt Service. [8] The Rate Covenant of the Bond Resolution requires that in each Fiscal Year: A) Net Revenues and Connection Fees must equal at least 120% of the Annual Debt Service of the Senior Lien Bonds; and B) Net Revenues without Connection Fees must equal at least 100% of the Annual Debt Service of the Senior Lien Bonds and any other required payments. No other required payments described in the rate covenant set forth in Section 5.04 of the Bond Resolution were identified for the Historical Period. [9] Amounts derived based on Net Revenues and Connection Fees divided by Senior Lien Debt Service. [10] Amounts derived based on Net Revenues without Connection Fees divided by Senior Lien Debt Service. [11] For debt service on Subordinated Indebtedness, the amounts were based on the principal and interest payments becoming due in each Fiscal Year. [12] Debt service on Subordinated Indebtedness includes outstanding FDEP Loans (State Revolving Fund Loans), which require a 1.15 coverage ratio after payment of Senior Lien Bonds. In the development of the historical operating results and debt service coverage ratios as shown above, several observations and information sources were recognized. The following is a summary of such observations and information sources. 1. Based on information provided by City staff, other revenues have increased beginning in Fiscal Year ended September 30, 2023 primarily due to higher investment earnings. 2. Based on a review of the Operating Expenses as reported by the City for the System, the primary expense is salaries and employee benefits and accounted for approximately 37% of total Operating Expenses included in the coverage calculation of the System for Fiscal Year ending September 30, 2023. The cost of total wages and salaries, including employee benefits increased by $3.7 million per year from Fiscal Years ending September 30, 2019 through and including September 30, 2023. 3. Total Operating Expenses included in the historical coverage calculation have increased at an average annual rate of 9.5% from Fiscal Years ending September 30, 2019 through and including September 30, 2023, while Net Revenues available for the payment of Annual Debt Service increased 9.3% per year. 4. Based on information provided by City staff, contract services were greater in Fiscal Year ended September 30, 2023 than any other historical year primarily due to increases for asphalt paving required by implementing changes to City operations and increases in transportation costs. 5. In addition to administrative costs, the City also transfers monies to the General Fund after payment of Operating Expenses and Annual Debt Service. Because they are not required Operating Expenses of the System, the two (2) transfers to the General Fund, which are referred to as payment-in-lieu-of-taxes (“PILOT”) and payment-in-lieu-of-franchise-fees (“PILOFF”), are excluded from Operating Expenses in the calculation of debt service coverage. In Fiscal Year ended September 30, 2023, these two (2) transfers totaled $29.6 million for the combined Water and Wastewater System. 6. Non-cash transactions are excluded as a component of Gross Revenues, such as contributed property and unrealized market gains on investments. 7. Included as a component of Gross Revenues are interest earnings on unrestricted fund balances, and this includes interest earnings on Connection Fees, which are available to pay Annual Debt Service; provided; however, under state law, when interest earnings on Connection Fees are used to pay debt service on Bonds E-36 Financial Feasibility Report – Water and Wastewater Systems Revenue Bonds, Series 2024 29 that were not expansion-related, the City is required to repay such Connection Fee Fund from Gross Revenues and other unrestricted funds. 8. The Annual Debt Service shown for the Outstanding Bonds was derived from the actual debt service repayment schedules for each series of Bonds, as provided by the City. For the purposes of the debt service coverage calculation, Annual Debt Service is shown on a “cash basis” with payments due on October 1 recorded in the prior fiscal year (as defined in the Bond Resolution), since these payments are sent to the paying agent in advance of the due date. 9. The City charges all System new development and/or redevelopment a Connection Fee to recover the allocable capital cost of water and wastewater capacity assigned to such new customer/property. Generally, under Florida law, the use of Connection Fees or Capacity/Impact Fees are limited to: i) payment for System expansion facilities; or ii) payment of debt service for obligations issued to finance or refinance the acquisition or construction of System expansion facilities. Based on discussions with City staff, all Wastewater Connection Fees collected during the Historical Period and the Forecast Period are considered as being legally available to pay for Wastewater System debt service. ISSUANCE OF ADDITIONAL BONDS Pursuant to the Bond Resolution, Additional Bonds may be issued and secured on a parity basis with the pledge of and lien on the Pledged Funds, which include Net Revenues of the System. The Series 2024 Bonds will be issued under the provisions of the Bond Resolution. In addition, future Additional Bonds were also assumed over the Forecast Period to fully fund the proposed capital improvement program. Projected Operating Results GENERAL The projected operating results of the System for the Forecast Period are summarized on Table 8 at the end of this report. The projections were based on: i) the City’s projected operating results for the Fiscal Year ending September 30, 2024 and the proposed Fiscal Year 2025 Operating Budget associated with the operations of the System; ii) discussions with City staff regarding current and future utility needs associated with capital improvements to the System and the capital funding plan; and iii) other information provided by the City and its consultants. Table 8 summarizes annual projections of Gross Revenues, Operating Expenses, Annual Debt Service on Bonds and Subordinated Indebtedness being repaid through System revenues and balances available for capital outlay and other purposes. In accordance with provisions of the Bond Resolution, projected Gross Revenues include sales revenue, investment earnings on certain fund balances, and other miscellaneous revenues derived from operations. The development of Gross Revenues was discussed previously in this report and is shown in detail in Table 8 at the end of this report. All revenues are based on adopted rates, fees and charges over the Forecast Period pursuant to the Rate Resolution. Investment earnings have been estimated for projected unrestricted cash balances, including Connection Fee funds determined to be available to pay Annual Debt Service during the Forecast Period (note that interest earnings on Connection Fees are in fact restricted under state law to be used only to pay debt service on Bonds that were expansion-related. To the extent the City utilizes any such restricted interest earnings to pay debt service, they are required to be repaid from Gross Revenues or other unrestricted funds). Such investment earnings are derived from E-37 Financial Feasibility Report – Water and Wastewater Systems Revenue Bonds, Series 2024 30 Tables 9 and 10 at the end of this report, which are based on the estimated annual cash flow within each utility fund. The estimated cash flows are predicated upon the projected Operating Expenses that are based on various factors such as projected expense increases due to inflation and projected changes in expenses due to anticipated changes in operations, if any. As discussed previously in this report, estimated changes in operations during the Forecast Period include temporary wholesale wastewater service to the County and the prospective sale of the Palm River System. Table 11, at the end of this report, summarizes the projected working capital balances for the combined water and wastewater funds for the Forecast Period. PRINCIPAL CONSIDERATIONS AND ASSUMPTIONS In the preparation of this report and the conclusions that follow, we have made certain assumptions with respect to conditions that are anticipated to occur in the future. While we believe the assumptions are reasonable for the purpose of this report, they are dependent upon future events and actual conditions may differ from those assumed. In addition, for our projections, estimates and studies, we have used and relied upon certain information and assumptions provided to us or prepared by others, including: i) information and assumptions provided to us by the City regarding historical financial information and historical customer and sales statistics; ii) information contained in the City’s ACFRs; iii) information provided by the City’s Financial Advisor with respect to assumptions regarding the issuance of the Series 2024 Bonds and any future Additional Bonds assumed for the Forecast Period; and iv) information provided by the City with respect to the capital improvement program for the System. While we believe use thereof to be reasonable for the purpose of this report, we offer no further assurances with respect thereto. To the extent that actual conditions differ from those assumed by us herein or from information or assumptions provided to us, or prepared by others, the actual results will vary from those estimated and projected in this report. Those differences may be material. We have no responsibility to update this report for events and circumstances occurring after the date of this report. In making the projections and estimates summarized in this report, the principal considerations and assumptions made by us and the principal information and assumptions provided to us, or prepared by others, include the following: 1. The City’s projected operating results for the Fiscal Year ending September 30, 2024 and the proposed Fiscal Year 2025 Operating Budget, as provided by City staff, served as a basis for the Operating Expense projections and was assumed to be reasonable and reflect anticipated operations. When comparing the actual Fiscal Year ended September 30, 2023 Operating Expenses of approximately $175.0 million to the projected Fiscal Year ending September 30, 2024 amount of $190.0 million, assumed Operating Expenses are 8.6% greater. As a matter of policy, the City budgets the full cost of projected expenses, such as salaries and benefits, even though actual experience demonstrates that the City may not fully expend the total budget. Such budgetary amounts were incorporated into the projected financial operating results, except for any adjustments and assumptions as noted hereunder. 2. Gross Revenues for the Forecast Period were predicated on the actual, audited amounts for the Fiscal Year ended September 30, 2023, as provided by City staff. The City expects water and wastewater customers and sales to increase by an average of approximately 0.5% per year over the Forecast Period due to new customer connections. The City also anticipates additional changes to System revenues over the next several years resulting from temporary wholesale wastewater service to the County and the prospective sale of the Palm River System. E-38 Financial Feasibility Report – Water and Wastewater Systems Revenue Bonds, Series 2024 31 a. The County has requested temporary wholesale wastewater services to be provided by the City. Based on a contract between the City and the County, the wholesale agreement allows for the delivery and treatment of up to 2.5 MGD of County sewer flows for a period of three (3) to five (5) years. Applicable charges to the County will be based on the current outside City rates, including the monthly base charge, as authorized in the Rate Resolution. For the purpose of this study, we have estimated additional and temporary wastewater revenues for the fiscal years ending September 30, 2025 through and including September 30, 2027. The estimated revenues and associated collection and treatment expenses related to providing temporary wholesale service to the County were calculated based on 75% of the maximum flows. Such wholesale wastewater service is estimated to provide approximately $5.3 million in annual (net) revenues during the three-year service period that was assumed in this study. This estimate is based on revenues of approximately $6.0 million per year less $750,000 per year of collection and treatment costs. b. The City has evaluated the feasibility of selling the Palm River System to the County and the conditions precedent for such sale is expected to be allowable under the Bond Resolution. The Palm River System comprises approximately 2,520 water connections and 1,482 wastewater connections. While a contract for sale does not exist between the parties, the City completed a system valuation study on April 8, 2022 that provides a conclusion of value equal to $55.0 million. Based on discussions with City staff, early negotiations to develop a draft agreement are in progress, which includes an anticipated sales price of $55.0 million that may be paid over a period of up to five (5) years, or in lump sum. For the purpose of this study, we have recognized five annual installments of not more than $11.0 million per year for the Fiscal Years ending September 30, 2025 through and including September 30, 2029. Such amounts are assumed to be deposited into the City’s capital construction funds and used to construct System capital improvements during the Forecast Period. Based on the anticipated sale and transfer of the Palm River System, we reduced the effective, annual operating results summarized in this study by approximately $13.7 million per year beginning in Fiscal Year ending September 30, 2025. Such adjustments account for the reduction and loss of approximately $15.6 million of annual income as well as an estimated decrease (offset) of $1.9 million in annual operation and maintenance expenses. (Remainder of page intentionally left blank) E-39 Financial Feasibility Report – Water and Wastewater Systems Revenue Bonds, Series 2024 32 3. When considering the implementation of the adopted rates for the Forecast Period, the City estimates an annual average increase in Gross Revenues of approximately 3.5%. Table 4 at the end of this report provides the details behind the projected amounts, which are summarized as follows: Summary of Projected Gross Revenues Projected Fiscal Year Ending September 30, Description 2024 2025 2026 2027 2028 2029 Water and Wastewater Rate Revenues at Existing Rates [1] $343,284,965 $335,241,182 $336,919,708 $338,605,347 $334,099,181 $335,802,492 Additional Revenue from Adopted Rates [2] 0 27,670,629 48,850,098 61,529,886 73,757,827 86,745,563 Other Revenues [3][4] 23,726,157 15,830,601 13,998,358 13,637,126 13,846,522 14,061,802 Total Gross Revenues $367,011,122 $378,742,411 $399,768,165 $413,772,358 $421,703,531 $436,609,856 Amounts may not total due to rounding. [1] Amounts derived from Table 4. Revenues based on existing (Fiscal Year 2024) rates that were effective on October 1,2023. Amounts reflect a loss of annual revenues beginning in Fiscal Year ending September 30, 2025 that may occur if the Palm River Service Area is sold to Hillsborough County. Amounts include increased annual revenues due to providing temporary wholesale wastewater service to Hillsborough County from Fiscal Years ending September 30, 2025 through 2027. [2] Amounts based on the adopted water and wastewater rates from October 1, 2024 through October 1, 2028 as provided in the Rate Resolution. [3] Other Revenues derived from Table 4 include cash investment earnings, cash capital contributions (excluding Connection Fees), miscellaneous income, and grant funds available for any lawful purpose and not otherwise restricted. The cash investment earnings are decreasing based on the projected cash flows for each fund as derived in Tables 9 and 10. Amounts exclude Connection Fees, capital grant revenues, gains on sale of assets, and unrealized gains on investments. [4] During Fiscal Year ended September 30, 2023, the System earned approximately $19 million from cash-basis interest earnings. The amount shown for Fiscal Year ending September 30, 2024 is based on current estimates assuming an average interest rate of 2.0%. Beginning in Fiscal Year ending September 30, 2025, interest income was assumed to be reduced based on an estimated average interest rate of 1% per year. The amount of income is projected to vary over time as reserve funds are used to pay for a portion of the proposed capital projects. 4. The Operating Expenses of the System are derived from Tables 12 through 17 at the end of this report. Generally, the budgeted amounts for the Fiscal Year ending September 30, 2025 were projected for the remaining four (4) years of the Forecast Period based on certain escalation factors. These projections are illustrated in Tables 13 and 16 for the Water and Wastewater Systems, respectively. The escalation factors used to develop the projected Operating Expenses are referenced in Tables 14 and 17. The projected Operating Expenses were developed for the Forecast Period as follows: a. Budgeted Fiscal Year ending September 30, 2025 Operating Expenses such as professional engineering and legal services, other contractual services, training expense, materials and supplies, advertising, and certain other operating expenses have been projected to increase at an annual average rate of inflation of 2.4% through Fiscal Year ending September 30, 2029. The forecast of inflation was based upon the Consumer Price Index (“CPI”) forecast prepared by the Congressional Budget Office (“CBO”) as contained in “The Budget and Economic Outlook” report dated June 2024. b. Based on information provided by City staff, existing System salaries and wages were projected to increase above Fiscal Year 2025 estimates by 5% annually during the Forecast Period. c. Personnel expenses other than compensation (i.e., health insurance, unemployment compensation, retirement contributions, etc.) have been projected to increase by an annual average E-40 Financial Feasibility Report – Water and Wastewater Systems Revenue Bonds, Series 2024 33 amount of approximately 6.8%. The annual average increase was based on the combined labor rate adjustment of 5% per year and City staff’s estimated increases for retirement contributions and employee insurances of 8% per year. d. Based on information provided by the City, chemical and electric costs have been projected to increase 6.5% per year during the Forecast Period. e. Tampa Bay Water is a regional water supply authority and interlocal governmental agency of the State of Florida created to enable its member governments to efficiently manage their water resources. The members include the Counties of Hillsborough, Pinellas, and Pasco, and the Cities of New Port Richey, St. Petersburg, and Tampa. f. In accordance with the terms and conditions of the Amended and Restated Inter-local Agreement executed in 1998, the City may purchase available water not needed by other members. The City pays the same unitary rate as all other members of finished water purchased, other than water delivered to the City from the Tampa Bypass Canal (the “TBC”) that is not attributable to the Tampa Bay Water augmentation projects. The rate charged to the City for water provided through the TBC will be equal to Tampa Bay Water’s direct cost and allocated overhead. The cost of water purchased from Tampa Bay Water is higher than the City’s own water production costs. In order to recover the difference in the cost of water purchased, the City assesses the Tampa Bay Water Pass-Through Charge. This charge is calculated on a CCF basis and is billed to the City’s water customers based on each customer’s metered water consumption. Total annual purchases from Tampa Bay Water have been estimated to be $5.4 million annually during the Forecast Period. Total Tampa Bay Water Pass-Through Charge revenue is estimated to be $0 million annually during the Forecast Period, because $5.4 million of purchased water costs are included in the City’s rates. g. Based on discussions with the City, no additional expense allowances were expected to be incurred following the completion of the proposed capital improvements, or any other changing conditions other than the increased collection and treatment expenses to provide temporary wholesale wastewater service to the County and to recognize cost savings (offsets) related to the prospective sale of the Palm River System. The incremental changes in Operating Expenses over the Forecast Period are shown in detail at the bottom of Tables 13 and 16 at the end of this report. h. An annual allowance for bad debt expense of approximately one percent (1%) of sales revenues has been made to recognize that a certain amount of revenues will be uncollectible and written off throughout the year. This expense item was included in the proposed Fiscal Year ending September 30, 2025 Budget and is projected based on estimates provided by City staff. i. A contingency allowance of approximately one percent (1%) of Operating Expenses was added to the proposed Fiscal Year ending September 30, 2025 Budget and included in the projected Operating Expenses to allow for unknown or unplanned operating expenditures or changes to projected revenues. The contingency allowance is projected to average approximately $2.5 million per year for the System. 5. For the purposes of this study, amounts associated with depreciation and amortization expenses have not been recognized in this analysis. These expenditures are non-cash in nature and are also not considered as E-41 Financial Feasibility Report – Water and Wastewater Systems Revenue Bonds, Series 2024 34 a component of Operating Expenses for the purpose of calculating compliance with the rate covenant of the Bond Resolution. Also not included in the coverage calculation are PILOT and PILOFF as these are transfers to the General Fund and are not considered as Operating Expenses as defined in the Bond Resolution and thus are paid from the net cash flows after the payment of debt service, which is considered “below the line” for the purposes of rate covenant compliance. 6. As of September 30, 2023, the City’s outstanding principal amount of utility revenue bonds (the “Outstanding Bonds”) totaled $713.2 million. The Annual Debt Service included in this report for the Outstanding Bonds are based on the actual debt service schedules for each issue and are presented on a “gross” basis (i.e., not net of interest earnings on any debt service-related funds or accounts). Furthermore, based on the requirements of the Bond Resolution, the Annual Debt Service is shown on a “cash basis” with payments due on October 1 recorded in the prior fiscal year (as provided in the Bond Resolution), since these payments are accrued monthly and sent to the paying agent in advance of the due date. The indebtedness of the Outstanding Bonds as shown below is allocable entirely to the System and only the revenues derived from water and wastewater operations are pledged towards the payment of this debt. A summary of the remaining principal for each series of Outstanding Bonds (before the issuance of the Series 2024 Bonds), is as follows: Bond Issue Principal Outstanding as of 9/30/2023 [1] Water and Sewer Systems Refunding Bonds, Series 2015 $56,330,000 Water and Wastewater Systems Revenue Bonds, Series 2016 4,020,000 Water and Wastewater Systems Revenue Bonds, Series 2020A 270,905,000 Taxable Water and Wastewater Refunding Revenue Bonds, Series 2020B 83,605,000 Water and Wastewater Systems Revenue Bonds, Series 2022A 282,545,000 Water and Wastewater Systems Revenue Bonds, Series 2022A 15,750,000 Total Outstanding Bonds $713,155,000 [1] Amount outstanding as of September 30, 2023; includes principal payments made on October 1, 2023, as provided by City staff. [2] Amount reflects the unrefunded portion of the Series 2011 Bonds. Annual Debt Service payments for the Outstanding Bonds for the Forecast Period as allocated between the Water and Wastewater Systems are shown on Tables 18 and 20, respectively, which are summarized System-wide on Table 22. As shown on Table 22, the existing Senior Lien Annual Debt Service increases from $42.8 million in Fiscal Year ending September 30, 2024 to $43.9 million per year by Fiscal Year ending September 30, 2029 as deferred payments on the Outstanding Bonds become due. 7. As of September 30, 2023, the City’s outstanding debt pursuant to the State of Florida Department of Environmental Protection (“FDEP”) State Revolving Loan Fund Program (the “SRF Program”) totaled approximately $20.6 million. These loans were used to fund various water projects and are secured by a pledge of the Net Revenues of the System. The FDEP Loans are considered to be Subordinated Indebtedness and thus are junior and subordinate to the lien holders of the Bonds and are repayable in semi- annual installments over a 20-year period. The payment of the debt service amounts associated with Subordinated Indebtedness is considered a required payment from System Net Revenues after payment of all other required amounts pursuant to the E-42 Financial Feasibility Report – Water and Wastewater Systems Revenue Bonds, Series 2024 35 Flow of Funds set forth in the Bond Resolution. As of September 30, 2023, the amounts outstanding are shown below: Description of Subordinated Debt [1] Amount Outstanding as of 9/30/2023 FEDP Loans: Water State Loan No. 4 $201,577 Water State Loan No. 5 331,905 Water State Loan No. 6 9,154,060 Water State Loan No. 7 10,926,302 Total FDEP Loans Outstanding $20,613,844 [1] Outstanding indebtedness as of September 30, 2023 as provided by City staff. 8. After considering the existing FDEP Loans discussed above, which have a subordinate or junior lien pledge on Net Revenues after payment of Senior Lien Bonds, Table 22 summarizes the annual average payments due in each year of the Forecast Period. As shown on Table 22, the existing subordinate lien payments are projected to average approximately $1.9 million per year over the Forecast Period. 9. As discussed previously in this report and in Assumption Item 10 below, the City plans to spend approximately $1.83 billion on capital improvements over the Forecast Period, of which approximately 58% or $1.06 billion is expected to be funded through the Series 2024 Bonds and future Additional Bonds. Table 22, at the end of this report, summarizes the projected Annual Debt Service payments for the Series 2024 Bonds and the future Additional Bonds that were provided by the City’s Financial Advisor. The financing assumptions as allocated to each utility system, which includes estimated borrowing rates over a financing term through Fiscal Year ending September 30, 2060, are summarized on Tables 19 and 21. As shown on Table 22, the first payment on the proposed Series 2024 Bonds is estimated to be approximately $1.1 million on October 1, 2025 and an annual average payment of $13.9 million per year over the remaining Forecast Period. The City’s Financial Advisor provided estimated financing schedules for all future Additional Bonds, including the Series 2024 Bonds, and as such, the estimated terms and conditions of the borrowing assumptions will change. We have no responsibility to update this report for events and/or circumstances occurring after the date of this report.

The capital expenditures for the System are based on data derived from the most recent capital improvement program prepared by the City along with information regarding the status of current and anticipated projects and annual departmental capital needs. The following is a summary of the capital expenditures anticipated for the System and the funding sources expected to be utilized during the Forecast Period: Summary of Capital Improvements Program [1] Description Total Fiscal Years 2024-2029 Capital Projects: Water System Projects $1,110,173,690 Wastewater System Projects 721,730,653 Total Water and Wastewater Projects $1,831,904,343 Funding Sources: Capital Funded from Rates (Use of Reserves) $110,000,000 Capital Funded from Rates (Current Year Revenues) 383,605,215 Use of Capital Construction Fund Reserves 278,292,920 Proposed Series 2024 Bonds 259,828,658 Future Bonds – Series 2025 0 Future Bonds – Series 2026 144,699,461 Future Bonds – Series 2027 145,086,500 Future Bonds – Series 2028 160,153,100 Future Bonds – Series 2029 182,110,389 Future Bonds – Series 2030 168,128,100 Total Water and Wastewater Funding Sources $1,831,904,343 Amounts may not total due to rounding. [1] Amounts derived from Tables 5 and 6 at the end of this report. Tables 5 and 6 at the end of this report provides a detailed listing of the capital projects and funding sources for the System for each year of the Forecast Period. 11. Tables 9 and 10 at the end of this report provide the details behind the individual Water and Wastewater Systems’ fund balance activity and development of interest income on reserve balances. Table 11 at the end of this report summarizes the combined working capital balances in each fiscal year by monetary fund that were derived from the projected cash flows of the System. The following tabulation summarizes the projected year-ending working capital balances by major fund as follows: (Remainder of page intentionally left blank) E-44 Financial Feasibility Report – Water and Wastewater Systems Revenue Bonds, Series 2024 37 Summary of Projected Year-ending Working Capital Balances Actual Projected Fiscal Year Ending September 30, [1] Description 2023 2024 2025 2026 2027 2028 2029 Projected Working Capital Balances: Operating Reserve Fund – Unrestricted [2] $275,577,216 $364,100,406 $300,156,546 $257,902,507 $270,959,201 $286,915,235 $299,527,767 Renewal and Replacement Fund [2] 14,986,000 16,946,000 18,351,000 18,938,000 19,989,000 20,689,000 21,086,000 Water and Wastewater Capital Construction Funds 236,028,833 171,828,833 50,938,207 24,735,913 26,735,913 28,235,913 29,735,913 Water and Wastewater Connection Fee Funds 19,324,013 11,253,357 9,296,234 7,351,384 5,419,944 4,003,959 4,237,446 Total Working Capital Balances $545,916,063 $564,128,597 $378,741,987 $308,927,804 $323,104,059 $339,844,107 $354,587,126 Total Operating Reserves – Days of Operating Expenses and PILOT/PILOFF 454 600 471 386 388 395 394 Total Days of Operating Reserves – Target 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 Amounts may not total due to rounding. [1] Amounts reflect projected year-ending working capital balances by fund as derived from Table 11 at the end of this report. [2] Amount of working capital included in the Operating Reserve Fund – Unrestricted was reduced for the minimum, allocated fund balance in the Renewal and Replacement Fund equal to 5% of the previous year's Gross Revenues as calculated in Table 11 at the end of this report. Amounts estimated to be on deposit was increased from September 30, 2023 to September 30, 2024 primarily due operating surpluses that are estimated to occur after using existing construction fund reserves and the Series 2024 Bond proceeds to lower or offset rate-funded capital expenditures for the year. As shown above, the beginning balances as of September 30, 2023 reflect the estimated working capital balances, that include the City’s current assets minus the current liabilities as of September 30, 2023. The total amount available as of Fiscal Year ended September 30, 2023 was $545.9 million, which included $275.6 million within the operating reserve fund. As shown above, total available working capital balances, including Connection Fee Fund balances, are projected to decrease from $545.9 million to $354.6 million by the end of Fiscal Year ending September 30, 2029. This decrease in working capital balance is mainly due to the assumption that the City will fund approximately 21% of the capital improvement program directly from reserves. The projected ending balance for Fiscal Year ending September 30, 2029 of the combined water and wastewater operating reserve funds is $299.5 million, representing approximately 394 days of the projected Operating Expenses, plus the City’s PILOT/PILOFF transfers. The City’s adopted budgetary reserve policy requires that the System maintain at least 90 days of budgeted Operating Expenses plus the amount of the PILOT/PILOFF, for purposes of the reserve policy. 12. In accordance with the flow of funds as provided in the Bond Resolution, certain interest income has been recognized as revenue available to fund the expenditure needs of the System for purposes of calculating compliance with the rate covenant set forth in the Bond Resolution. For purposes of calculating Gross Revenues, interest earnings from funds and accounts established by the City that are considered unrestricted (earnings not required to be retained in such funds and accounts and are available as a component of Gross Revenues) have been recognized. This includes interest earnings on the Connection Fee Funds that are available to pay Annual Debt Service (provided, however, under state law, when interest earnings on Connection Fees are used to pay debt service on Bonds that are not expansion-related, the City is required to repay such interest earnings from Gross Revenues and other unrestricted funds). Investment earnings E-45 Financial Feasibility Report – Water and Wastewater Systems Revenue Bonds, Series 2024 38 from the Construction Funds are considered as being restricted to such accounts and were not considered as a component of Gross Revenues. During Fiscal Year 2023, the System earned approximately $19 million from cash-basis interest earnings. The amount shown for Fiscal Year 2024 is based on current estimates assuming an average interest rate of 2.0%. Beginning in Fiscal Year 2025, interest income was assumed to be reduced based on an estimated average interest rate of 1% per year. The amount of income is projected to vary over time as shown in Tables 9 and 10 as reserve funds are used to pay for a portion of the proposed capital projects. SUMMARY OF PROJECTED OPERATING RESULTS As shown in Table 8 and summarized as follows, projections have been prepared of the operating results for the System. Such projections were prepared in accordance with the flow of funds prescribed by the Bond Resolution and the various assumptions and considerations used in the projections as set forth above.

[1] Amounts derived from Table 4 and include additional revenues from the City's adopted water and wastewater rates through Fiscal Year ending September 30, 2029. Amounts reflect a loss of annual revenues beginning in Fiscal Year 2025 that may occur if the Palm River Service Area is sold to Hillsborough County. Amounts include increased annual revenues due to providing temporary bulk wastewater service to Hillsborough County from Fiscal Years 2025 through 2027. SEE PRINCIPAL CONSIDERATIONS AND ASSUMPTIONS BEGINNING ON PAGE 29. [2] Other Revenues derived from Table 4 include cash investment earnings, cash capital contributions (excluding Connection Fees), miscellaneous income, and grant funds available for any lawful purpose and not otherwise restricted. The cash investment earnings are decreasing due to an assumed lower earnings rate and based on the projected cash flows for each fund as derived in Tables 9 and 10. Amounts exclude Connection Fees, capital grant revenues, gains on sale of assets, and unrealized gains on investments. Table footnotes continued on following page.

Pursuant to the Bond Resolution, Operating Expenses do not include depreciation or amortization expenses, payment-in-lieu-of-taxes (PILOT), payment-in-lieu-of-franchise-fees (PILOFF), losses on sale of assets, or unrealized losses on investments. The amounts shown above were reconciled to Tables 13 and 16 as shown below: Projected Fiscal Year Ending September 30, 2024 2025 2026 2027 2028 2029 Water System Cost of Operation and Maintenance Expenses [a] $110,893,509 $116,852,932 $122,262,001 $127,472,719 $132,959,320 $138,737,463 Wastewater System Cost of Operation and Maintenance Expenses [b] 110,552,627 115,731,671 121,454,873 127,370,452 132,388,912 138,941,323 Sub-total Cost of Operation and Maintenance Expenses $221,446,137 $232,584,603 $243,716,874 $254,843,172 $265,348,232 $277,678,785 Less PILOT/PILOFF Payments [c] (31,475,900) (32,681,100) (34,097,200) (35,139,300) (35,835,500) (36,908,500) Total Operating Expenses $189,970,237 $199,903,503 $209,619,674 $219,703,872 $229,512,732 $240,770,285 __________ Amounts may not total due to rounding. [a] Amounts derived from Table 13. [b] Amounts derived from Table 16. [c] Amounts reflect the sum of the PILOT and PILOFF payments derived from Tables 13 and 16 that are excluded from the definition of Operating Expenses as defined in the Bond Resolution. [4] As shown on Tables 13 and 16, Operating Expenses were projected to increase approximately 4.9% per year on average over the Forecast Period. Based on discussions with City staff, certain adjustments were made to account for future inflation and to recognize increases to expenses resulting from temporary bulk wastewater service to Hillsborough County while recognizing decreases to expenses if the Palm River System is sold to Hillsborough County. SEE PRINCIPAL CONSIDERATIONS AND ASSUMPTIONS BEGINNING ON PAGE 29. [5] Pursuant to the Bond Resolution, all Connection Fees are pledged to the repayment of the Bonds. Under Florida Law, Connection Fees may only be used to pay debt service on Bonds that financed or refinanced expansion-related capital improvements under the terms of the Bond Resolution. If Connection Fees are used to pay debt service on Bonds that were not expansion-related, the City is required to repay the applicable Connection Fees Fund from Net Revenues as provided in the Bond Resolution. The amounts are derived from Tables 9 and 10, and based on discussions with City staff, only the amount of projected Wastewater Connection Fees are considered as being available to pay the debt service on the Bonds allocable to Wastewater System expansion. Future customer growth was assumed to be approximately 0.5% per year. [6] Amounts derived from Table 22. For the purpose of debt service calculation, pursuant to the Bond Resolution, payments due October 1 are considered to be due and payable on the immediately preceding September 30 for purposes of the definition of Annual Debt Service. As shown on Table 22, Annual Debt Service is projected to increase just beyond the Forecast Period through Fiscal Year 2031 when the projected Series 2030 Bonds are assumed to fully amortize. [7] The rate covenant set forth in the Bond Resolution requires that in each Fiscal Year: A) Net Revenues and Connection Fees must equal at least 120% of the Annual Debt Service of the senior lien Bonds; and B) Net Revenues only must equal at least 100% of the Annual Debt Service of the senior lien Bonds and any other required payments. No other required payments under the Bond Resolution were identified for the Forecast Period ending September 30, 2029. [8] Amounts derived based on Net Revenues with Connection Fees divided by senior lien Annual Debt Service. [9] Amounts derived based on Net Revenues without Connection Fees divided by senior lien Annual Debt Service. [10] Amounts derived from Table 22. For subordinate lien Debt Service, the amounts were based on the principal and interest payments becoming due in each Fiscal Year. [11] Subordinate lien annual debt service includes projected outstanding FDEP Loans, which require a 1.15 coverage ratio after payment of senior lien Bonds. In order to provide additional information regarding the projected revenue sufficiency of the System, including City PILOT and PILOFF transfers and other funding requirements after the payment of Annual Debt Service, Table 23 at the end of this report was compiled to summarize the annual projected cash flows of the System, including a summary of projected working capital balances estimated as of September 30 for each fiscal year of the Forecast Period. As discussed previously in this report, the projected results are based on the City’s planned implementation of previously adopted water and wastewater rates for the Forecast Period. Please refer to Table 23 for a summary of projected System cash flow and working capital balances. E-48 Financial Feasibility Report – Water and Wastewater Systems Revenue Bonds, Series 2024 41 Conclusions Based upon the principal considerations and assumptions and the results of our studies and analyses, as summarized in this report, which should be read in its entirety in conjunction with the following, we are of the opinion that: 1. The projected growth in System revenues for the Forecast Period is based on the adopted water and wastewater rates through Fiscal Year ending September 30, 2029. Please refer to the pages beginning on page 3 of this report for a detailed explanation of the City’s adopted rates. A 0.5% annual increase in revenue for customer growth was assumed for the Water and Wastewater Systems during the Forecast Period. The projected growth in System customers and applicable usage during the Forecast Period for the System represents reasonable and attainable projections based on discussions with the City and on recent trends in customers served/billed. 2. The projected Operating Expenses reflect the City’s current wage and salary plan and inflationary allowances for other Operating Expenses and as such represent reasonable and attainable projections based on discussions with the City and on recent trends in customers served/billed. 3. The Gross Revenues for the Forecast Period under the City adopted rates and charges should be sufficient to pay all projected Operating Expenses of the System, pay the estimated Annual Debt Service on all Bonds (including the Series 2024 Bonds and any Additional Bonds assumed for the Forecast Period), pay the Subordinated Indebtedness including the FDEP Loans, make all additional deposits as required by the Bond Resolution, and meet the rate covenant of the Bond Resolution. 4. The projected debt service coverage of the System as presented in this report should be in compliance with the rate covenant contained in the Bond Resolution and with respect to Subordinated Indebtedness including the FDEP Loans. The forecast of projected operating results is considered by Raftelis as being reasonable and attainable and provides a basis for the City to meet the rate covenant as delineated in the Bond Resolution. A summary of the assumptions and considerations relied upon in the development of the forecast of projected operating results are included herein. The financial projections in this report, associated with the issuance of the Series 2024 Bonds, were based on discussions with and information provided by the City, the City’s Financial Advisor and consultants, as well as certain assumptions and analyses made by us with respect to such financial projections. The ability of the System to meet the debt service requirements and comply with the rate covenant of the Bond Resolution are subject to the assumptions and considerations identified in the report and information obtained during preparation of the report regarding the System and the financial projections reflected therein. As such, the report should be read in its entirety with respect to such projections. This report summarizes the results of our studies and analyses up to the date of this report. Prospective purchasers of the Series 2024 Bonds should not rely upon the information contained in this report for a current description of any matters set forth herein as of any date subsequent to the date of this report. Raftelis did not perform an audit of the financial books and records of the System, but relied upon information, assumptions, and projections provided by City staff and others. There will usually be differences between the forecast and actual results, because events and circumstances frequently do not occur as expected. Those differences may be material. We have no responsibility to update this report for events and circumstances occurring after the date of this report.

For the purposes of calculating Gross Revenues, interest earnings on Connection Fees are unrestricted and available for debt service. During Fiscal Year 2023, the System earned approximately $19 million from cash-basis interest earnings. The amount shown for Fiscal Year 2024 is based on current estimates assuming an average interest rate of 2.0%.

Projected amounts based on the phased implementation of the adopted Water Connection Fees and future customer growth of approximately 0.5% per year.[12] Amounts derived from Table 22. For the purposes of the debt service coverage calculation, debt service requirements are shown on a "cash basis" with payments due on October 1st recorded in the prior year (as defined in the Bond Resolution), since these payments are sent to the paying agent in advance of the due date.[13] Amounts derived from Table 22. For subordinate lien Debt Service, the amounts were based on the principal and interest payments becoming due in each Fiscal Year. [14] The rate covenant of the Bond Resolution requires that in each Fiscal Year: A) Net Revenues and Connection Fees must equal at least 120% of the Annual Debt Service of the senior lien Bonds; and B) Net Revenues without Connection Fees must equal at least 100% of the Annual Debt Service of the senior lien Bonds and any other required payments. No other required payments under the Bond Resolution were identified for the Forecast Period.[15] Amounts derived based on Net Revenues with Connection Fees divided by senior lien Annual Debt Service.[16] Amounts derived based on Net Revenues without Connection Fees divided by senior lien Annual Debt Service.[17] Amounts derived from Tables 5 and 6 based on the proposed capital plan as provided by the City.[18] Amounts derived from Tables 13 and 16.[19] Amounts derived from Table 22, which reflects an internal payment from the City's Solid Waste Fund.[20] Amounts derived from Table 10, which reflect the difference between current and prior year Wastewater Connection Fees that the City anticipates using to pay a portion of the Annual Debt Service.[21] Net Cash Flow represents the net annual system cash flow after the payment of Annual Debt Service, capital funded from rates, and other transfers. Amounts represent the combined deposits (or uses) to/from the working capital reserve to fund capital projects shown in Tables 9 and 10.A summary of the projected year-ending working capital balances for each fiscal year is shown on Table 11.[22] Amounts based on the projected results derived from Table 11.[23] Amounts highlight the ability of the existing and proposed rates to meet the total senior lien and subordinate lien payments and all required transfers to the General Fund in the form of a PILOT and PILOFF.E-117 Page 1 of 1Table 24 City of Tampa, Florida Water and Wastewater Financial Feasibility Report Projected Water Revenues at Existing Rates Line Historical [1]Projected Fiscal Year Ending September 30, [2] No. Description 2023 2024 2025 2026 2027 2028 2029 WATER SERVICE Residential 1 Residential - Inside Water $44,521,950 $50,159,885 $50,410,686 $50,662,742 $50,916,051 $51,170,626 $51,426,486 2 Residential - Outside Water 16,451,018 18,548,360 18,641,104 18,734,310 18,827,978 18,922,113 19,016,729 3 Sub-total Residential $60,972,967 $68,708,245 $69,051,791 $69,397,052 $69,744,029 $70,092,740 $70,443,216 Apartment 4 Apartment - Inside Water $20,308,189 $22,976,928 $23,091,842 $23,207,408 $23,323,195 $23,439,902 $23,557,095 5 Apartment - Outside Water 20,780,408 23,465,245 23,585,166 23,705,087 23,825,389 23,945,690 24,067,187 6 Sub-total Apartment $41,088,597 $46,442,173 $46,677,008 $46,912,495 $47,148,583 $47,385,592 $47,624,282 Mixed Use 7 Mixed Use - Inside Water $856,300 $973,206 $978,072 $982,962 $987,877 $992,816 $997,780 8 Mixed Use - Outside Water 168,686 192,022 192,982 193,947 194,917 195,892 196,871 9 Sub-total Mixed Use $1,024,986 $1,165,228 $1,171,054 $1,176,909 $1,182,794 $1,188,708 $1,194,651 Commercial 10 Commercial - Inside Water $35,671,837 $39,961,371 $40,160,677 $40,360,559 $40,561,419 $40,764,741 $40,969,360 11 Commercial - Outside Water 24,422,894 27,331,174 27,468,300 27,605,960 27,743,899 27,882,258 28,021,124 12Commercial - Other 0000000 13 Total Commercial $60,094,731 $67,292,545 $67,628,978 $67,966,518 $68,305,318 $68,646,999 $68,990,485 14 TOTAL WATER SERVICE $163,181,281 $183,608,191 $184,528,831 $185,452,975 $186,380,725 $187,314,039 $188,252,634 IRRIGATION SERVICE Residential 15 Residential - Inside Water $180,375 $201,988 $203,008 $204,029 $205,049 $206,070 $207,104 16 Residential - Outside Water 25,108 28,132 28,274 28,416 28,558 28,700 28,842 17 Sub-total Residential $205,483 $230,120 $231,282 $232,445 $233,607 $234,770 $235,946 Apartment 18 Apartment - Inside Water $46,102 $51,629 $51,913 $52,196 $52,479 $52,762 $53,045 19 Apartment - Outside Water 5,122 820 824 828 832 836 840 20 Sub-total Apartment $51,224 $52,449 $52,736 $53,024 $53,311 $53,598 $53,886 Mixed Use 21Mixed Use - Inside Water $0$0$0$0$0$0$0 22Mixed Use - Outside Water 0000000 23 Sub-total Mixed Use $0 $0 $0 $0 $0 $0 $0 Commercial 24 Commercial - Inside Water $1,850,714 $2,073,322 $2,083,694 $2,094,079 $2,104,509 $2,115,018 $2,125,540 25 Commercial - Outside Water 525,201 588,251 591,221 594,268 597,315 600,362 603,408 26Commercial - Other 0000000 27 Total Commercial $2,375,914 $2,661,573 $2,674,916 $2,688,347 $2,701,824 $2,715,380 $2,728,948 28 TOTAL IRRIGATION SERVICE $2,632,621 $2,944,142 $2,958,934 $2,973,816 $2,988,742 $3,003,748 $3,018,779 29 TOTAL WATER SYSTEM $165,813,902 $186,552,333 $187,487,765 $188,426,791 $189,369,467 $190,317,787 $191,271,414 OTHER SYSTEM SALES 30 Irrigation Sales - Reclaimed Water 2,170,370 2,170,370 2,170,370 2,170,370 2,170,370 2,170,370 2,170,370 31 Loss of Revenues - Sale of Palm River Service Area 0 0 (7,383,106) (7,383,106) (7,383,106) (7,383,106) (7,383,106) 32 TOTAL OTHER SYSTEM SALES $2,170,370 $2,170,370 ($5,212,736) ($5,212,736) ($5,212,736) ($5,212,736) ($5,212,736) 33 ADJUSTMENT TO REVENUE MATCH ACTUAL ($184,325) ($207,081) ($200,006) ($201,036) ($202,071) ($203,111) ($204,158) 34 TOTAL WATER REVENUES $167,799,947 $188,515,622 $182,075,024 $183,013,019 $183,954,661 $184,901,940 $185,854,520 Footnotes: [1] Amount based on detailed actual billing records as provided by the City.

The Series 2024 Bonds are issued under the authority of the laws of the State of Florida (the "State"), including the Florida Constitution, Chapter 166, Florida Statutes, the Charter of the City of Tampa, Florida (the "City"), and other applicable provisions of law, and pursuant to Resolution No. 2011-609 adopted by the City Council of the City (the "City Council") on August 18, 2011, as supplemented, particularly as supplemented by Resolution No. 2024-822 adopted by the City Council on September 5, 2024 (collectively, the "Resolution"). The Series 2024 Bonds are dated and shall bear interest from their date of delivery, except as otherwise provided in the Resolution. The Series 2024 Bonds will mature on the dates and in the principal amounts and will bear interest at the respective rates per annum, as provided in the Resolution and set forth in the Bond Purchase Agreement executed in connection with the sale of the Series 2024 Bonds (the "Purchase Agreement"). Interest on the Series 2024 Bonds shall be payable on each April 1 and October 1, commencing on April 1, 2025. The Series 2024 Bonds are subject to redemption prior to maturity in accordance with the terms of the Resolution and as set forth in the Purchase Agreement. The Series 2024 Bonds are issued for the purpose of financing and/or reimbursing the costs of certain capital improvements to the System (as defined in the Resolution), as F-1 Honorable Mayor and Members (Date of Delivery) of the City Council of the City of Tampa, Florida Page 2 more particularly described in the Resolution, and paying costs of issuance with respect to the Series 2024 Bonds. As to questions of fact material to our opinion, we have relied upon the representations of the City contained in the Resolution and in the certified proceedings relating thereto and to the issuance of the Series 2024 Bonds and other certifications of public officials furnished to us in connection therewith without undertaking to verify the same by independent investigation. Furthermore, we have assumed continuing compliance with the covenants and agreements contained in the Resolution. We have not undertaken an independent audit, examination, investigation or inspection of the matters described or contained in any agreements, documents, certificates, representations and opinions relating to the Series 2024 Bonds, and have relied solely on the facts, estimates and circumstances described and set forth therein. In our examination of the foregoing, we have assumed the genuineness of signatures on all documents and instruments, the authenticity of documents submitted as originals and the conformity to originals of documents submitted as copies. Based on the foregoing, under existing law, we are of the opinion that: 1. The City is a duly created and validly existing municipal corporation of the State. 2. The City has the right and power under the Constitution and laws of the State to adopt the Resolution, and the Resolution has been duly and lawfully adopted by the City, is in full force and effect in accordance with its terms and is valid and binding upon the City and enforceable in accordance with its terms, and no other authorization for the Resolution is required. The Resolution creates the valid pledge which it purports to create of the Pledged Funds (as defined in the Resolution), subject to the provisions of the Resolution permitting the application thereof for the purposes and on the terms and conditions set forth in the Resolution. 3. The City is duly authorized and entitled to issue the Series 2024 Bonds and the Series 2024 Bonds have been duly and validly authorized and issued by the City in accordance with the Constitution and laws of the State and the Resolution. The Series 2024 Bonds constitute valid and binding obligations of the City as provided in the Resolution, are enforceable in accordance with their terms and the terms of the Resolution and are entitled to the benefits of the Resolution and the laws pursuant to which they are issued. The Series 2024 Bonds shall be issued on parity under the Resolution with certain other Bonds (as defined in the Resolution) that are outstanding under the Resolution, to the extent F-2 Honorable Mayor and Members (Date of Delivery) of the City Council of the City of Tampa, Florida Page 3 and except as provided in the Resolution. The Series 2024 Bonds do not constitute a general indebtedness of the City or the State or any agency, department or political subdivision thereof, or a pledge of the faith and credit of such entities but are solely payable from the Pledged Funds in the manner and to the extent provided in the Resolution. No holder of the Series 2024 Bonds shall ever have the right to compel the exercise of any ad valorem taxing power of the City or the State or any political subdivision, agency or department thereof to pay the Series 2024 Bonds. 4. Under existing statutes, regulations, rulings and court decisions, the interest on the Series 2024 Bonds (a) is excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes, and (b) is not an item of tax preference for purposes of the federal alternative minimum tax; provided, however, with respect to certain corporations, interest on the Series 2024 Bonds is taken into account in determining the annual adjusted financial statement income for the purpose of computing the alternative minimum tax imposed on such corporations. The opinions set forth in this paragraph are subject to the condition that the City comply with all requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, that must be satisfied subsequent to the issuance of the Series 2024 Bonds in order that interest thereon be (or continues to be) excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes. Failure to comply with certain of such requirements could cause the interest on the Series 2024 Bonds to be so included in gross income retroactive to the date of issuance of the Series 2024 Bonds. The City has covenanted in the Resolution to comply with all such requirements. Ownership of the Series 2024 Bonds may result in collateral federal tax consequences to certain taxpayers. We express no opinion regarding such federal tax consequences arising with respect to the Series 2024 Bonds. It should be noted that except as may expressly be set forth in an opinion delivered by us to the underwriters for the Series 2024 Bonds (on which opinion only they may rely) on the date hereof, we have not been engaged or undertaken to review the (1) accuracy, completeness or sufficiency of the Official Statement or other offering material relating to the Series 2024 Bonds and we express no opinion relating thereto, or (2) compliance with any federal or state law with regard to the sale or distribution of the Series 2024 Bonds and we express no opinion relating thereto. The opinions expressed in paragraphs 2 and 3 hereof are qualified to the extent that the enforceability of the Resolution and the Series 2024 Bonds may be limited by any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, reorganization or other similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally, or by the exercise of judicial discretion in accordance with general principles of equity. F-3 Honorable Mayor and Members (Date of Delivery) of the City Council of the City of Tampa, Florida Page 4 The opinions set forth herein are expressly limited to, and we opine only with respect to, the laws of the State and the federal income tax laws of the United States of America. The only opinions rendered hereby shall be those expressly stated as such herein, and no opinion shall be implied or inferred as a result of anything contained herein or omitted herefrom. This opinion is given as of the date hereof and we assume no obligation to update, revise or supplement this opinion to reflect any facts or circumstances that may hereafter come to our attention or any changes in law that may hereafter occur. We have examined the forms of the Series 2024 Bonds and, in our opinion, the forms of the Series 2024 Bonds are regular and proper.

WITNESSETH: WHEREAS, the City wishes to retain a law firm to serve as Bond Counsel and Disclosure Counsel to the City in connection with various bond issues and other matters for five (5) years; and WHEREAS, pursuant to the City’s request for proposals, the Firm has been selected to provide the desired services on terms and conditions hereinafter set forth. NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises and mutual covenants contained herein contained, the parties do hereby agree as follows: SECTION 1. AUTHORIZATION TO PROCEED AS BOND COUNSEL AND DISCLOSURE COUNSEL. The Firm is hereby authorized to provide Bond Counsel and Disclosure Counsel services as described in this Agreement and for the professional fees described in this Agreement. SECTION 2. TERM. This Agreement will be effective for five (5) years from the date of execution. SECTION 3. PROFESSIONAL SERVICES. The Firm hereby agrees to provide its professional services and facilities in connection with all bond issuance and other debt activities of the City subject to the conditions and in consideration of the payment of fees set forth herein. The Firm, in its role as Bond Counsel agrees, at the request of the City, to: (A) Review proposed financing programs as to the legal feasibility, compliance with applicable law and pending or proposed revision to the law, including U.S. Treasury regulations.

(G) Review the transcript of all proceedings in connection with the foregoing and indicate any necessary corrective action. (H) If sale is by competitive bid, assist in preparation of the bid documents, notice of sale, evaluation of bids and any other documentation or action necessary to conduct a sale of the bonds in that manner. (I) Review all disclosure documents prepared or authorized by the City insofar as such documents describe the bonds and summarize the underlying documents. However, the Bond Counsel assumes no responsibility for the disclosure documents insofar as such documents describe the financial circumstances of the offering or any other statistical projections or data and the Bond Counsel assumes no responsibility for preparing "Blue Sky Memorandums," registering obligations of the City in any State or for preparing legal investment surveys. (J) Prepare, obtain, deliver and file all closing papers necessary in connection with the sale and issuance of the bonds, including, but not limited to, certified copies of all minutes, ordinances, resolutions and orders; certificates such as officers, seal, incumbency, signature, no prior pledge, arbitrage and others; and verifications, consents and opinions from accountants, engineers, special consultants and attorneys. (K) Review all underwriting proposals, prepare all closing documents and attend and assist in the closing. Render an opinion in written form at the time the bonds are delivered, which opinion will cover (1) the legality of the bonds and the proceedings by which they are issued and (2) the exemption from gross income for federal income tax purposes of the interest paid on the bonds. The Firm, in its role as Disclosure Counsel, agrees, at the request of the City, to: (A) Prepare, with the assistance of City staff and relevant consultants, all disclosure documents at the request of the City (however, the Firm shall assume no responsibility for accuracy or completeness of financial and operating information or any other statistics, projections or data); (B) perform due diligence with regard to City financings; (C) advise the City with respect to its responsibilities under applicable federal and state securities law and assist the City in the complying with applicable federal and state securities laws; 3 (D) subject to completion of proceedings to the Firm’s satisfaction, render appropriate opinions to the City pertaining to disclosure and provide a reliance letter to the City’s underwriters, if requested; (E) prepare the Continuing Disclosure Certificate or Dissemination Agent Agreement providing a continuing disclosure undertaking by the City in order to assist the underwriters in complying with the continuing disclosure requirements of Rule 15c2-12 or its successor in function; (F) prepare the competitive sale documents and/or bond purchase agreement on behalf of the City, if required; and (G) when requested, the Firm will also prepare or review secondary market disclosure submissions. SECTION 4. PROFESSIONAL FEES FOR PROFESSIONAL SERVICES. The City and the Firm agree to the fees proposed in its Proposal for Bond and Disclosure Counsel Services dated January 31, 2025. SECTION 5. ANCILLARY SERVICES. In addition to being asked to perform typical Bond Counsel and Disclosure Counsel services in connection with various issues of the City as noted, above, the Firm agrees to provide certain ancillary services, such as ongoing consultation with the City on routine matters, i.e., phone conversations, short correspondence and simple advice on proposed or closed transactions without additional cost. Other services can be provided as Bond Counsel and Disclosure Counsel such as (but not limited to) bond validation proceedings, preparation of legislation, preparation of ruling requests to the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") for rulings required in particular financing, assisting the City in responding to an audit request from the IRS, seeking no action letters from the Securities and Exchange Commission and post-issuance compliance, including disclosure compliance services, at the request of the City shall be performed at an hourly rate as described in the Response to Request for Bond and Disclosure Counsel Services dated January 25, 2025. SECTION 6. COMPENSABLE EXPENSES. Reimbursement of expenses shall be made by the City to the Firm for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses without markup including but not limited to long distance calls and facsimile transmissions, copying or reproducing documents, postage, court costs, parking costs and travel incurred by the Firm in performance of the duties hereunder. Travel and per diem costs as well as auto travel expenses shall not exceed that which is available to City of Clearwater employees. SECTION 7. INDEMNIFICATION AND INSURANCE. The Firm agrees, through the provision of professional liability insurance and similar coverages, to protect, defend and indemnify the City and its officers, employees and agents from and against any and all losses, penalties, damages, settlements, costs, charges, professional fees or other expenses or liabilities of every kind and character caused by any alleged negligent act or omission of the Firm, its employees, agents and subcontractors in connection with or arising directly or indirectly out of this Agreement and/or the performance hereof. Without limiting its liability under this Agreement, the Firm shall procure and maintain during the life of this Agreement professional 4 liability insurance in an amount in excess of $2,000,000. This provision shall survive the termination of this Agreement. SECTION 8. CONFLICT OF INTEREST. It is understood by the City and the Firm that the Firm is not aware of any clients of the Firm that currently present any conflict between the interest of the City and other clients of the Firm. If any potential conflict of interest arises during the time the Firm is representing the City, the Firm will promptly inform the City. The City is under no obligation to agree to permit the conflict representation. The rules regulating The Florida Bar provide that common representation of multiple parties is permissible where the clients are generally aligned in interest, even though there is some difference in interest among them. The Firm has disclosed to the City that the Firm has, currently does and may in the future, serve as bond or disclosure counsel to other local governments, act as underwriters' counsel and represent lending institutions on public finance matters inside and outside the State of Florida. From time to time, the Firm may represent financial institutions which may underwrite the City's bonds, notes or other obligations (and other financial institutions hired by the City) on financings for other governmental entities on unrelated matters. In all such cases, such representations are standard and customary within the industry and the Firm can effectively represent the City and the discharge of the Firm’s professional responsibilities to the City will not be prejudiced as a result, either because such engagements will be sufficiently different or because the potential for such prejudice is remote and minor and outweighed by consideration that it is unlikely that advice given to the other client will be relevant in any respect to the subject matter, and the City expressly consents to such other representations consistent with the circumstances herein described. The Firm’s representation on unrelated matters is not likely to create or cause any actual conflict, and such service will not be per se construed as a conflict or be objectionable to the City. The Firm understands that the City reserves the right to identify a representation that it finds objectionable in the future, in which case both parties agree to take appropriate steps to resolve the issue. Should any potential conflict arise in the future, the Firm would immediately disclose the facts to the City including the party with which there might be a conflict, the nature of the potential conflict, and the means of resolving such potential conflict, including but not limited to obtaining written conflict waivers from both parties and/or resignation of the representation or representations which is/are causing the conflict, if desired. SECTION 9. CONSTRUCTION AND AMENDMENTS. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida. This Agreement may be amended only by a writing duly entered into by the City and the Firm. SECTION 10. CANCELLATION OF AGREEMENT. The City may cancel or terminate this Agreement upon thirty days advance written notice to the Firm. In the event of cancellation, the Firm shall immediately cease work hereunder and shall be reimbursed for eligible and documented reimbursable expenses incurred prior to the date of cancellation. 5 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the City and the Firm have executed this Agreement as of the date first written above.

INITIATED BY: City of Clearwater, Planning and Development Department UPDATE FOR CITY COUNCIL The Community Development Board, in its capacity as the Local Planning Agency (LPA), reviewed the proposed amendments to the Community Development Code at its meeting on January 21, 2025, and recommended approval with certain modifications and considerations as follows: 1. Clarify that the requirement to bring existing lots into compliance with the landscaping standards to the greatest extent practicable if the existing use is improved or remodeled in a value of 25 percent or more, as established by Section 3-1202.A.3.a, is applicable to properties other than single-family detached dwelling and two-family attached dwelling properties. 2. Consider modifying proposed Sections 3-1202.E.2.a.6.v and 3-1202.E.2.b.3.iv to permit the use of artificial turf in required interior and central landscape islands. 3. Consider incorporating licensure requirements into proposed Section 3-1203.E.12 to provide clarity regarding who would qualify as a “professional with experience in installation of artificial turf”. Additionally, while not incorporated into the Board’s motion for approval, the Board discussed the desire to allow for an independent appraisal to be used for the determination of 25 percent of the value of the principal structure, in addition to the value reflected in the property appraiser’s records, as established in Section 3-1202.A.3.a. Planning & Development Department Community Development Code Text Amendment Long Range Planning Division Community Development Board – January 21, 2025 Revised for City Council First Reading – March 6, 2025 TA2024-07002 – Page 2 Proposed Ordinance No. 9805-25 addresses the Board’s recommended clarification detailed in number 1., above. Additionally, staff has incorporated, for the City Council’s consideration, changes to Sections 3- 1202.A.3.a. and 3-1401.B.3.a to provide that an independent appraisal may also be used to determine 25 percent of the value of the primary structure which, if exceeded, would require improvements to landscaping and parking. While the Board’s discussion was focused on the provisions in the landscape code, this same language is utilized for parking. The proposed language is consistent with comparable provisions in the US 19 and Downtown Districts. No further modifications are recommended to address the Community Development Board’s suggestions detailed in numbers 2. and 3., above, for the following reasons. The proposed ordinance includes provisions to address any properties that have installed artificial turf prior to the enactment of the ordinance, permitting such artificial turf to remain, if maintained. Existing properties that may have installed artificial turf in required landscape islands would not be impacted by the proposed prohibition. Section 1-103 details the general purposes of the Community Development Code, adopted in 1999, which recognizes the different factors the City of Clearwater faces as a redevelopment community compared to other cities that have more vacant land for new development. Beautification of the city is a high priority, as is the preservation of natural resources and the aesthetic character of the community for both the resident and tourist populations. The transformation of the city aesthetically is noticeable and has been possible through both full redevelopment of properties and the incremental improvements to parking and landscaping required through the Sections referenced above. Landscape islands provide opportunities for shade and live plant materials within parking areas, and the standards have been amended in the past to address past deficiencies (i.e., larger islands spaced further apart to allow more room for trees to grow). The prohibition of the use of artificial turf is proposed to be stated for clarity to property owners but is not otherwise a change to current landscape standards. Staff explored additional options to address the Board’s suggestion regarding additional licensure requirements for professional installers, including conversations with representatives from additional companies that currently install artificial turf. To allow flexibility in the implementation of this provision, staff is recommending that no additional changes be incorporated, rather this be addressed through required documentation at the time of permit application. Section 4-202 provides a minimum list of information required for applications for development approval, and states that additional information may be required unless waived or modified by the Community Development Coordinator. This section permits the city to establish a permit application for artificial turf installation and, as previously presented to City Council, many of the details are appropriately located in an application and not directly codified. This will also provide flexibility in the implementation of the new standards, including how to best verify an installer’s credentials and experience, while keeping consistent with codified requirements. Minor modifications were made to the Ordinance between the Community Development Board hearing and the City Council first reading. These include correction of typos, moving of tables to be placed consistent with the codified code, and revising the phrasing of Proposed Section 3-1202.A.3.d to use consistent terminology as defined or used elsewhere in the Code. Planning & Development Department Community Development Code Text Amendment Long Range Planning Division Community Development Board – January 21, 2025 Revised for City Council First Reading – March 6, 2025 TA2024-07002 – Page 3 BACKGROUND The Community Development Code (CDC) prescribes the use of live landscaping materials for areas not occupied by buildings, structures, or pavement. Artificial turf is man-made and is not in a living condition; therefore, would not currently be permitted for use within the city, except for limited use in parks and athletic fields. In May of 2023, the city’s Code Compliance Division began issuing citations for properties where artificial turf had been installed illegally. After receiving these citations, property owners brought concerns to the attention of City Council. At the request of City Council, staff prepared a presentation on the current Code requirements and regulation of artificial turf within the city as well as information related to the impacts of the use of artificial turf. Staff presented the information to City Council in December of 2023 where the public was also permitted to voice their opinions, both in favor of or and against the use of artificial turf. Subsequent to this meeting, City Council directed staff to draft regulations to allow the use of artificial turf within the City of Clearwater. Staff reviewed existing regulations or policies regarding the use of artificial turf in other municipalities in Florida. While places like Surfside, Orlando, Winter Park, West Palm Beach, Lighthouse Point, Ocean Ridge, and Lantana have specific regulations adopted in an ordinance, most local jurisdictions either have no regulations or have an interpretation or policy on how artificial turf is handled. For those municipalities that have ordinances, regulations cover whether artificial turf is pervious or impervious, design, installation, and maintenance standards, the permitting process, and any restrictions on where artificial turf may be permitted. The City of Tampa has the most recent experience with regulating artificial turf. In the process of creating regulations for artificial turf, Tampa found limited adopted regulations and therefore opted to regulate the use of artificial turf through guidelines and a permit application process. Staff used adopted ordinances and policies as a guide to begin the creation of regulations to permit artificial turf. Staff performed additional research on artificial turf to ensure the most recent information, materials, installation techniques, and any emerging advancements in the artificial turf industry were captured in the city’s regulations. In addition, staff met with a local industry expert to discuss installation techniques and get a better understanding of how regulations and permitting may impact the artificial turf installation process. This research also provided a better understanding of artificial turf and the many complexities to this topic. Based on information gathered, staff drafted an outline of the proposed amendments and began discussions with other departments and divisions within the city including Public Works, Parks and Recreation, Code Compliance, and Land Resources. This comprehensive review of the proposed regulations ensured that all city staff that would be involved in the review and permitting of artificial turf were involved in the drafting of the ordinance and defining the process for approving an artificial turf permit. Additionally, staff conducted community engagement to share the draft ordinance and gather feedback from the community. Staff attended a Clearwater Neighborhoods Coalition meeting on August 5, 2024, and held Planning & Development Department Community Development Code Text Amendment Long Range Planning Division Community Development Board – January 21, 2025 Revised for City Council First Reading – March 6, 2025 TA2024-07002 – Page 4 a community meeting at the Countryside Library on September 12, 2024. In addition, staff conducted a live webinar on September 11, 2024, that was recorded and posted to the city’s YouTube page. Attendees were interested to learn how artificial turf would be permitted, to learn how existing artificial turf installations would be treated, and in sharing concerns related to the environmental impacts of allowing artificial turf. Staff met with the Environmental Advisory Board (EAB) on September 18, 2024, to discuss the proposed amendments to the Community Development Code. Rather than allow artificial turf, the EAB recommends City Council promote Florida Friendly Landscaping practices which aim to conserve water, preserve natural resources, and reduce water pollution. However, the EAB understands the City Council has an interest in regulating artificial turf, while the product does not meet Greenprint 2.0 standards, Florida Friendly Landscaping criteria, and its environmental risks far outweigh the potential benefits, the EAB recommends City Council demand the highest possible standards including ensuring any artificial turf is PFAS free and recyclable should an ordinance be adopted. Staff collected input throughout the process of drafting this Ordinance resulting in the continued evolution of the approach based on feedback from the various stakeholders. AMENDMENT PROPOSAL Proposed Ordinance 9805-25 contains numerous amendments throughout the Community Development Code, which can be generally broken down into the following categories: 1. Artificial turf, including general standards, location standards, minimum design standards, permitting, installation, inspection, maintenance, and existing artificial turf. 2. “Clean up” amendments consisting of correcting typographical errors, reordering sections, providing clarification, adding a provision for existing developed lots, creating a front yard residential landscaped area requirement, and adding, deleting, or amending definitions as needed. The proposed amendments are detailed further within the analysis section. ANALYSIS Artificial Turf [Pages 3, 6-7, 9-13, 15-17, and 18-19 of Ordinance] Ordinance 9805-25 proposes to create regulations to permit the use of artificial turf citywide including general, location, and minimum design standards, permitting, installation, inspection, maintenance, and existing artificial turf. A new Section 3-1203 is proposed that would govern all artificial turf installations resulting in the relocation of the existing 3-1203. Scenic Corridors to a new Section 3-1206. Section 3-1203.A - General Standards This Section proposes regulations to allow the use of artificial turf citywide with approval of a permit and compliance with all provisions of Section 3-1203. Artificial turf is not a living plant material; therefore, it would not count toward any required landscaped areas. In addition, the proposed regulations prohibit the use of indoor/outdoor plastic or nylon carpeting as a replacement for artificial or natural turf. Lastly, an Planning & Development Department Community Development Code Text Amendment Long Range Planning Division Community Development Board – January 21, 2025 Revised for City Council First Reading – March 6, 2025 TA2024-07002 – Page 5 existing provision that allows Parks and Recreation Facilities and athletic fields to use artificial turf in lieu of plant materials was carried over and relocated to this Section. Section 3-1203.B - Location Standards This Section proposes to limit where artificial turf may be installed. Artificial turf may be installed on approved concrete patios, porches, and rooftop patios or decks without a permit as these surfaces may already be in place and would be considered part of the properties impervious surface ratio (ISR). Artificial turf may not be installed in a right-of-way or permanent drainage feature without approval of the City Engineer. These areas may contain infrastructure that could be impacted by the excavation and compacting required for artificial turf installation. If artificial turf is proposed within a right-of-way, a city right-of-way permit would be required. Artificial turf is prohibited from being installed in required perimeter or vegetative buffers, interior or central parking islands, or areas used for parking or driving of motor vehicles. As previously noted, artificial turf is not a live plant material and buffers and islands are intended to contain live plant materials. In addition, artificial turf is not considered an all-weather driving surface; therefore, it cannot be used as a parking or driving surface. Section 3-1203.C - Minimum Design Standards This Section proposes regulations establishing quality and design standards for artificial turf. With the exception for Parks and Recreation Facilities and athletic fields, artificial turf must be green lifelike blades that look like natural turf. The minimum pile height is required to be 1.5 inches for residential installations and 0.5 inches for nonresidential installations. Pile height is the height of the blades of grass. Longer blades of grass are for low traffic areas like residential yards and are softer, more flexible, and more natural looking. Shorter blades of grass are meant for high traffic areas like playgrounds or athletic fields and are firmer, more durable, and easier to clean. The minimum pile height for residential uses is proposed to be 1.5 inches except for specialty artificial turf installations such as K-9 grass or putting greens located in the side or rear yards, which may be approved with a shorter pile height as determined to be deemed practicable by the Community Development Coordinator. The minimum pile height for nonresidential uses is proposed to be 0.5 inches. The minimum face weight for all artificial turf is required to be 60 ounces per square yard. The face weight is the weight of the grass fiber materials per square yard where higher weight result in a better quality and more durable artificial turf. The average face weight for residential uses in between 50 and 80 ounces per square yard with higher number giving a higher quality and a denser and sturdier artificial turf. The average face weight for an athletic field would be between 40 and 90 ounces per square yard with 60 ounces being recommended for sports fields or areas of intense activity. For safety and longevity, all artificial turf must flame retardant, free of lead and PFAS, and provide a minimum 8-year manufacturer’s warranty. Section 3-1203.D - Permitting This Section proposes to require a permit for installation of artificial turf. This permit would be reviewed by city staff in Land Resources, Development Review, and Engineering for compliance with the Code. This Section allows the Community Development Coordinator to establish what information will be required, and staff will create an application that includes submittal requirements and the process for review and approval. The submittal requirements will include the following documentation: • A landscape plan or survey; and Planning & Development Department Community Development Code Text Amendment Long Range Planning Division Community Development Board – January 21, 2025 Revised for City Council First Reading – March 6, 2025 TA2024-07002 – Page 6 • Tree preservation plan, if required; and • Scaled edge detail or cross section similar to the one below; and • Manufacturer’s specifications including installation instructions and warranty. In addition, the proposed regulations create an option to allow installation of 100 square feet or less of artificial turf without a permit; however, this approved area would count toward the property’s ISR and is limited to one such installation per property. This would allow flexibility for a property owner to install a small area of artificial turf. Section 3-1203.E - Installation This Section proposes regulations to ensure quality installation of artificial turf and determine whether it would be treated as pervious or impervious. If trees are located on or overhanging the property, a tree preservation plan will be required to evaluate any potential impacts to the tree. All artificial turf is required to be installed meeting the manufacturer’s specifications. This installation must be designed to not adversely impact other properties or the right-of-way and follow the historic flow of the watershed. This can be accomplished through an underdrain system installed within the subbase or through a pervious installation as detailed later in this Division. To deter live plant materials from growing under and within the artificial turf, a barrier would be required to separate the artificial turf from live plant materials, limiting the amount of debris and seeds that may fall on the artificial turf. To ensure artificial turf stays in place and resembles a natural look, seams must be installed with seaming tape and glue and edges must be trimmed to fit all regular and irregular shapes and tucked and anchored consistent with manufacturer’s specifications. In addition, the proposed regulations require that artificial turf be pinned or staked behind any seawall and not be attached to a seawall or seawall cap. After installation, artificial turf must be visually smooth with grain pointing in single direction. Planning & Development Department Community Development Code Text Amendment Long Range Planning Division Community Development Board – January 21, 2025 Revised for City Council First Reading – March 6, 2025 TA2024-07002 – Page 7 Infill is the granular material applied on top of artificial turf after installation and serves as a ballast, keeping the turf weighted down and level and provides a similar footing to natural turf. Infill also provides an extra layer of cushioning, maintains the fibers in an upright position, and extends the life of the artificial turf. If infill is recommended by the manufacturer or proposed for use in any artificial turf installation, it must be a clean silica sand or a sand-based product. The use of plastic pellets or crumb rubber infill is prohibited with the exception of Parks and Recreation Facilities and athletic fields, which may use crumb rubber to provide a safer surface in high traffic areas. Artificial turf may be installed by a residential property owner; however, it would count toward the property’s ISR. The installation of artificial turf has several steps that require knowledge and equipment to be done properly in order to be treated as pervious. Artificial turf installed by a contractor or professional with experience installing artificial turf may be treated as pervious if the following are met: • Backing must be dual flow or hole punched for drainage; and • For nonresidential installation only: a minimum of a one-inch leveling layer composed of decomposed limestone or granite is provided; and • A minimum of a four-inch subbase composed of washed granite or limestone that meets FDOT #4 57, or 89 stone is provided; and • The subbase stone size is a minimum of ⅜ to 1 inch; and • The underlying soils remain uncompacted. In addition, the contractor or professional installer would be required to sign a verification form certifying that the artificial turf was installed compliant with the Code and meets the city’s definition of pervious. This provides a professional assurance that the artificial turf was installed per the manufacturer’s specifications and will have no adverse impacts on adjacent properties or the right-of-way. Section 3-1203.F - Inspection This Section proposes regulations requiring the city to inspect properties where artificial turf has been installed for compliance with all provisions in the Code. An initial inspection would be required for any artificial turf installations that may impact trees on the property and a final inspection would be required for all artificial turf installations. Staff is proposing a process that would limit the number of inspections to allow the installation of artificial turf to be completed without interruption after a permit is issued. Upon completion of installation, the following information must be submitted to request a final inspection: • A copy of the aggregate testing report (from the aggregate supplier) to document the clean stone used in the subbase layer meets FDOT gradation requirements (if treated as pervious). • A Verification Form stating the artificial turf was installed pursuant to this section and the manufacturer’s specifications and indicating whether the installation meets this Code’s definitions of impervious or treated as pervious. • Photos of the subbase and leveling layers prior to covering each layer. • Photos of project area post installation including any areas where tree barricades were previously installed. Planning & Development Department Community Development Code Text Amendment Long Range Planning Division Community Development Board – January 21, 2025 Revised for City Council First Reading – March 6, 2025 TA2024-07002 – Page 8 Section 3-1203.G - Maintenance This Section proposes regulations to ensure proper maintenance of artificial turf as well as repair and replacement when needed. Artificial turf must be kept in a green fadeless condition and free of dirt, mud, sand, stains, odors, weeds, debris, tears, holes, seam separations, excessive wear, and impressions. This can be accomplished through proper maintenance including rinsing to wash away pollen and seeds, brushing to keep blades upright and protect against damage, debris removal, elimination of odors or weeds, and ensuring edges stay tucked and staked. Maintenance also includes ensuring that artificial turf continues to allow infiltration, and any stormwater drainage does not adversely impact adjacent properties or the right-of-way over time. If artificial turf were to fall into disrepair and repair or replacement is necessary, the property owner must use the same artificial turf that exists on the property or similar materials that will blend with the existing turf. Any repair or replacement of artificial turf would require a permit and if there are areas of artificial turf that do not comply with Section 3-1203, the property owner would be required to bring the property into conformance to the greatest extent deemed practicable by the Community Development Coordinator. Staff would work with the property owner to identify any nonconformities and discuss what could be done to bring to property more into conformance with the Code. Section 3-1203.H - Existing Artificial Turf This Section proposes regulations related to properties that installed artificial turf prior to the adoption of this Ordinance. At this point there is no way for staff to equitably identify properties with existing artificial turf as staff is unaware of the number of properties that may have already installed artificial turf in the backyard or other areas not visible from the public access. It would be a large undertaking for staff to bring them all into conformance at one time; therefore, regulations are being proposed to allow artificial turf installed before the enactment date of this Ordinance to remain if the following are met: • Evidence demonstrating the turf was installed prior to enactment date is provided; and • If any artificial turf was installed within the right-of-way (ROW), an after-the-fact ROW permit must be applied for; and • All existing artificial turf must comply with maintenance standards in Section 3-1203.G. This allows property owners who comply with the above requirements to keep the existing artificial turf as long as they maintain it. Any existing artificial turf permitted to remain would count towards the calculation of stormwater fees and the property’s ISR, which may impact future improvements to the property. Appendix A, Schedule of Fees, Rates, and Charges, Section V Buildings and Building Regulations This Section clarifies that tree removal and artificial turf permits are included in this Section; however, they are not subject to the Florida Building Code. Additionally, a new fee is proposed for artificial turf permits of $200 to cover the cost of staff review and inspection. Planning & Development Department Community Development Code Text Amendment Long Range Planning Division Community Development Board – January 21, 2025 Revised for City Council First Reading – March 6, 2025 TA2024-07002 – Page 9 Additional Amendments [Pages 3-5, 7-9, 12-14, and 17-18 of Ordinance] The additional proposed amendments are considered to be clean up amendments and consist of correcting typographical errors, reordering sections, providing clarification, adding a provision for existing developed lots, creating a residential landscaped area requirement for residential front yards, and adding, deleting, or amending definitions as needed. Section 3-1202, General Landscaping Standards, is being updated to add a requirement for existing single- family and two-family lots to come into full compliance with the tree requirements when an addition or improvement to the lot is proposed. In addition, a new subsection is being added to create a residential landscaped area requirement of 25% of the front yard for residentially zoned properties under certain circumstances. Section 8-102, Definitions, is being updated to include definitions that relate to artificial turf and other nonliving landscape materials including clarification of organic mulch; adding face weight, landscaped area, landscape material, landscape rock, inorganic mulch, natural turf, artificial turf, pile height, and shell; and deleting landscaping. Additionally, a definition along with diagrams is being added for front yard. CRITERIA FOR TEXT AMENDMENTS CDC Section 4-601 sets forth the procedures and criteria for reviewing text amendments. All text amendments must comply with the following: 1. The proposed amendment is consistent with and furthers the goals, policies, and objectives of the Comprehensive Plan. Objective CCM 1.2 Continue to protect floodplains, drainage ways, and all other natural resources from encroachment and development. Policies QP 5.6.1 Continue to protect trees during site development or redevelopment through standards in the CDC. QP 5.6.2 Ensure new development is sited to reduce impacts to trees within rights-of-way. CCM 1.4.3 Consider adopting performance standards to reduce the current rates of potable water consumption. SS 1.5.3 Continue to develop strategies aimed at reducing potable water consumption. The proposed amendments related to the regulation of artificial turf are supported by Objective CCM 1.2. Ensuring that any artificial turf installations do not adversely affect adjacent lots or ROW, and that any drainage follow historic flows and protects drainage ways from negative impacts related to artificial Planning & Development Department Community Development Code Text Amendment Long Range Planning Division Community Development Board – January 21, 2025 Revised for City Council First Reading – March 6, 2025 TA2024-07002 – Page 10 turf. Additionally, limiting the use of artificial turf where the city has drainage easements allows the City Engineer to review any installation for impacts to the drainage system prior to approval. Policies QP 5.6.1 and 5.6.2 support limiting the use of artificial turf under trees, requiring a tree preservation plan to evaluate the species and size of each tree to determine a protection zone. Policies CCM 1.4.3 and SS 1.5.3 support permitting artificial turf in an effort to conserve water resources that would be spent on maintenance of natural turf. As such, the proposed amendments within Ordinance 9805-25 furthers the Comprehensive Plan through the specific objective and policies referenced above. 2. The proposed amendments further the purposes of the Community Development Code (CDC) and other City ordinances and actions designed to implement the Plan. The proposed text amendment will further the purposes of the CDC in that it will be consistent with the following purposes set forth in CDC Section 1-103: • It is the purpose of this Development Code to implement the Comprehensive Plan of the city; to promote the health, safety, general welfare and quality of life in the city; to guide the orderly growth and development of the city; to establish rules of procedure for land development approvals; to enhance the character of the city and the preservation of neighborhoods; and to enhance the quality of life of all residents and property owners of the city (Section 1-103.A., CDC). • It is the purpose of the Community Development Code to create value for the citizens of the City of Clearwater by allowing property owners to enhance the value of their property through innovative and creative redevelopment (Section 1-103.B.1, CDC). • It is the further purpose of this Development Code to make the beautification of the city a matter of the highest priority and to require that existing and future uses and structures in the city are attractive and well-maintained to the maximum extent permitted by law (Section 1-103.D, CDC). The proposed amendments in this Ordinance will further the above referenced purposes of the Community Development Code by providing standards for the use of artificial turf. Through the regulations of this Ordinance, the city is encouraging the continued investment in properties by requiring residential properties to maintain 25% of the front yard of a property as a landscaped area containing living plant materials and allowing property owners to enhance the value of their property through the installation of artificial turf. Regulations for design standards and maintenance of artificial turf are also proposed to ensure properties utilizing artificial turf are attractive and well-maintained. Additionally, amendments in this Ordinance propose to establish reasonable standards which encourage orderly development that will enhance the character of the city. As such, proposed Ordinance No. 9805-25 furthers the purposes in the CDC.
