Section 3. Public Hearin . 3.01.

Reimbursement of Costs under the Code. 5.01. The United States Department of the Treasury has promulgated final regulations governing the use of the proceeds of tax-exempt bonds, all or a portion of which are to be used to reimburse the City or a borrower from the City for project expenditures paid prior to the date of issuance of such bonds. Those regulations (Treasury Regulations, Section 1.150-2) (the "Regulations") require that the City adopt a statement of official intent to reimburse an original expenditure not later than sixty (60) days after payment of the original. expenditure. The Regulations also generally require that the Bonds be issued and the reimbursement allocation made from the proceeds of the bonds occur within eighteen (1 9) months after the later of: (i) the date the expenditure is paid; or (ii) the date the 2016 Project is placed in service or abandoned, but in no event more than three (3) years after the date the expenditure is paid. The Regulations generally permit reimbursement of capital expenditures and costs of issuance of the Bonds. 5.02. To the extent any portion of the proceeds of the Bonds will be applied to expenditures with respect to the 2016 Project, the City reasonably expects to reimburse the Borrower for the expenditures made for costs of the 2016 Project from the proceeds of the Bonds after the date of payment of all or a portion of such expenditures. All reimbursed expenditures shall be capital expenditures, a cost of issuance of the Bonds, or other expenditures eligible for reimbursement under Section 1.150-2(d)(3) of the Regulations and also qualifying expenditures under the Act. Based on representations by the Borrower as of the date hereof, other than (i) expenditures to be paid or reimbursed from sources other than the Bonds, (ii) expenditures permitted to be reimbursed under prior regulations pursuant to the transitional provision contained in Section 1.150-20)(2)(i)(B) of the Regulations, (iii) expenditures constituting preliminary expenditures within the meaning of Section 1.150- 2(f)(2) of the Regulations, or (iv) expenditures in a "de minimus" amount (as defined in Section 1.150- 2(f)(1) of the Regulations), no expenditures with respect to the 2016 Project have been made by the Borrower more than sixty (60) days before the date of adoption of this resolution. 5.03. Based on representations by the Borrower, as of the date hereof, there are no funds of the Borrower reserved, allocated on a long term -basis or otherwise set aside (or reasonably expected to be reserved, allocated on a long-term basis or otherwise set aside) to provide permanent financing for the expenditures related. to the 2016 Project to be financed from proceeds of the Bonds, other than pursuant to the issuance of the Bonds. This resolution, therefore, is determined to be consistent with the budgetary and financial circumstances of the Borrower as they exist or are reasonably foreseeable on the date hereof. Section 6. Costs. The Borrower will pay the administrative fees of the City with respect to the original issuance of the Bonds and pay, or, upon demand, reimburse the City for payment of, any and all costs incurred by the City in connection with the 2016 Project and the issuance of the Bonds, whether or not the Bonds are issued. Section 7. Commitment Conditional. The adoption of this resolution does not constitute a guarantee or a firm commitment that the City will issue the Bonds as requested by the Borrower. If, based on comments received at a public hearing to be held pursuant to this resolution, or other information made available to or obtained by the City during its review of the 2016 Project, it appears that the 2016 Project or the issuance of Bonds to finance or refinance the costs thereof is not in the public interest or is inconsistent with the purposes of the Act or the Code, the City reserves the right not to grant final approval to the issuance of the Bonds. The City also retains the right, in its sole discretion, to withdraw from participation and accordingly not issue the Bonds should the City Council, at any time prior to the issuance thereof, determine that it is in the best interests of the City not to issue the Bonds or 11 should the parties to the transaction be unable to reach agreement as to the terms and conditions of any of the documents for the transaction. Section S. Effective Date. This Resolution shall be in full force and effect from and after its passage. PASSED by the City Council of the City of Kalispell, Montana, this 7th day of December, 2015.
